Bad Choices: A Look Inside Planned Parenthood

GET INVOLVED,YOU'LL FEEL GREAT!!
THERE ARE 3 KINDS OF PEOPLE

2.People who watch things happen
3.People who wondered what happened!!
Action Item: Effective Sidewalk Counseling
The People of God need to be present at the killing centers, when the killing is taking place. There are many activities of the pro-life movement. Yet every day, for 4000 women, none of those activities keeps her away from the abortion mill. Therefore, someone needs to be there to intervene for those who have slipped through the cracks.
Sidewalk counselors need to be alert and vigilant. While it is necessary to maintain an attitude of prayer, counselors need to do so with their eyes up rather than down, and looking all around them, ready to spot those coming for abortions. While there should be people near the entrance to the abortion mill, there should always be people further away, ready to intercept abortion-minded clients as far away from the entrance as possible. This is important, because the further away a person is intercepted, the more chance there is that she will change her mind. This is true for several reasons. First, there is simply more time for the counselor to talk before the client goes in the door. Second, it is less embarrassing for her to turn around before others see her, whereas at the entrance to the door, everyone else gathered there is watching. Third, if the counselor is right near the entrance, it is obvious to the client that the counselor wants to dissuade her from abortion; but if the counselor approaches while the client is still far away from the mill, the purpose of the approach is not as obvious, and the client may be more willing to stop and listen. One approach is to station people at every corner, light, and stop sign in every direction for several block from the abortion mill, and simply stop every car with an offer of literature. If the person is not coming for an abortion, no harm is done, and information is passed along.

Pro-Life Examination of Conscience
Questions to help me defend life more effectively…
Rev. Frank A. Pavone
National Director
1.) Am I fully convinced that every abortion, at every stage of pregnancy, is the destruction of an innocent human life, which has the same value as my life, my parents' lives, my children's lives? Do I foster and nourish this conviction by reflecting often on the tragic loss of life occurring daily around me? Do I ever allow myself the thought that someone else's abortion is "none of my business?" Do I sometimes think that I have "more important" things to do than to save innocent lives? Do I believe I am responsible for my preborn brothers and sisters and accountable to God for what I do to save them? Do I have the courage to remind myself of the horror of abortion by actually looking at the pictures of aborted babies?
2.) Do I pray daily and explicitly for an end to abortion? Do I pray for the babies, the mothers, the abortionists, the legislators, the media, the clergy, and the whole pro-life movement? Do I fast or make other significant sacrifices for this cause? Or do I believe the fight against abortion can be easy and convenient? Am I too afraid of displeasing others, and do I think I need to be liked to be successful? Am I willing to undergo financial loss, ridicule, or other sacrifices, to save a child's life?
3.) Do I see the link between abortion and other assaults on human life and dignity? Do I acknowledge that progress in any arena for the defense of life facilitates progress in all the other arenas?
4.) Do I have faith that God is the Lord of Life? Do I believe the whole struggle is in His hands, and that He has already conquered evil, falsehood, and death? Do I trust Him? Do I ask His guidance? Do I keep my eyes on Him, or do I allow discouragement by focusing only on the problem and myself?
5.) Am I learning more about abortion and about the pro-life movement? Do I read good pro-life books? Do I subscribe to at least one pro-life publication so that I can be well informed on the issue? Do I escape from taking action by thinking that prayer alone is enough? Am I developing all the talents God gave me so that I can use them to advance the Culture of Life?
6.) Do I speak up in defense of life? Do I make full use of the opportunities I have, such as wearing pins or using bumper stickers or decals? Do I write letters to the paper or to legislators or to doctors? Or do I allow a lack of self-confidence to paralyze my activity? Do I only do what's comfortable, or do I try to discover what activities will be most effective? Do I gladly participate in projects that need to be done, even if I don't particularly want to? Do I try to come up with new ideas for pro-life work? Do I suggest these ideas to others?
7.) Do I take proper care of myself, physically and spiritually, so that I can be more effective in my pro-life work? Do I rest when I need to?
8.) Do I foster unity in the movement? Do I encourage my fellow pro-lifers? Are all of my efforts guided by charity? Do I allow unhealthy competition between pro-life persons or groups? Do I foster collaboration, without demanding uniformity? Do I follow the advice or direction of those who bear responsibility for pro-life projects or groups? Do I seek the advice and input of others in the movement, especially of those more experienced than I?
9.) Do I try to grow in compassion for women who are tempted to have abortions or who have had them in the past? Do I try to understand their situation and learn more about their needs? Do I help women find alternatives to abortion? Do I inspire hope in women I know who have had abortions? Do I help them find forgiveness and healing? Do I foster charity in thought, word, and deed toward those who disagree with me, or who perform or promote abortion? Am I fully committed to non-violence in this struggle?
10.) Am I ready from this day forward to be a better pro-lifer? Am I ready to launch out with new strength, generosity, and determination to bring an end to abortion, without counting the cost to myself? Am I grateful enough for the gift of life to work to give life to others? Do I thank God for the privilege of being part of the pro-life movement?

Planned Parenthood Watchdog Releases New List of Corporate Supporters
http://www.lifenews.com/nat3581.html
Pro-Life Group Names Planned Parenthood Boycott Targets
LIFE DECISIONS INTERNATIONAL
http://www.fightpp.org/
Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) --
A pro-life group that monitors corporations that give contributions to Planned Parenthood has released a new boycott list. Life Decisions International hopes pro-life advocates will consult the list before making purchases at some of the leading companies in the United States because they support the number one abortion business. Doug Scott, the president of LDI, tells LifeNews.com that the boycott list has proven effective over the 15 years the group has targeted corporate Planned Parenthood sponsors. "As a direct result of the commitment, action and prayers of pro-family people, at least 153 corporations have stopped funding Planned Parenthood," he said. Scott estimates that the boycott has cost Planned Parenthood more than $35 million over the period after corporations targeted by the boycott relented. He added: "This should be a testament to those who believe it is impossible to change corporate philanthropic behavior."
Several well-known companies are appearing on the LDI boycott list
For the first time, including the:
Allstate insurance company, CCA
Global (the parent of Carpet One and other flooring stores),
Chevron, Texaco, Comcast, DuPont, eBay and PayPal, the Four Seasons
Hotels, GlaxoSmithKline, Marriott, OSI Restaurants (which includes
Outback Steakhouse), Sears and Kmart, Sonic, and Wawa convenience
stores. Some of the companies that remain on the boycott list
include Abode software, Wachovia, Nike, Time Warner, Bank of
America, CIGNA, Walt Disney, Johnson & Johnson, Wells Fargo, Whole
Foods, Nationwide insurance, and others. The new Boycott List
includes a revised section identifying charitable organizations
associated with Planed Parenthood. That includes the Audubon
Society, Alzheimer's Association, AARP, American Diabetes
Association, Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, MDA, NEA, MS Society,
and the Sierra Club, among others.
"The Pro-Life Movement will succeed only to the extent that pro-life people are willing to be inconvenienced," Scott said. "The very lives of children are worth that much effort and a whole lot more."
GREAT JOB EVERYONE!!
175 Pro-lifers & their children came out to oppose Gov. Spitzer's radical and extreme abortion bill (NY Senate bill 5829.) (Titled the future of reproductive health in New York State).

Pro-Abortion Clergy Bless New York Abortion Business as "Sacred Ground"
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/issues-action/take-political-action/pro-choice-clergy.htm. Unbelievable!!!!
by Steven Ertelt
LifeNews.com Editor
Albany, NY (LifeNews.com) -- In an act that is sure to generate guffaws from the pro-life community, a group of pro-abortion clergy in Schenectady held a ceremony at a local abortion business to bless it and call it "sacred ground." Religious officials who are pro-life call the ceremony sacrilegious by blessing a place that kills the life God creates.
Rev. Larry Phillips of Schenectady's Emmanuel-Friedens Church dedicated the ground, according to a report in the Albany Times Union.
He called the abortion facility "sacred and holy ... where women's voices and stories are welcomed, valued and affirmed."
Phillips said the abortion business was "sacred ground where women are treated with dignity, supported in their role as moral decision-makers ... sacred ground where the violent voices of hatred and oppression are quelled."
Another minister prayed for safety for the abortion business and a local rabbi blew a shofar to dedicate the building as an honorable place in the community.
Planned Parenthood spokeswoman Linda Scharf told the newspaper that "It's a blessing to demonstrate the support of the clergy."
"The clergy were instrumental in getting abortion services legalized in the United States and right here in Schenectady," she added. "I know a member of the clergy who was part of an underground who directed young women to safe abortions before Roe v. Wade."
But Kathleen Gallagher of the New York State Catholic Conference told the Albany Times Union that the blessing is hypocritical.
"My gut reaction is that it's two-faced," Gallagher said.
"For many years abortion proponents have been saying this is not a religious issue, you should keep religion out of this, and now all of a sudden they turn around and decide to bless an abortion clinic to gain respect for a procedure everybody knows is not worthy of respect," Gallagher added.
ACTION: Send your complaints to Rev. Larry Phillips, c/o Emmanuel Baptist-Friedens United Church of Christ, 218 Nott Terrace Schenectady, NY 12305, Phone 518-374-4114 or email [email protected]

IN THE BATTLE AGAINST ROE V. WADE
Do you want to see the end of Roe v. Wade? Do you want to see an end to killing children and wounding women and men who participate in abortion? You can help by becoming a Declaration Ambassador for Operation Outcry ( http://www.operationoutcry.org). Operation Outcry is a project of The Justice Foundation to reverse Roe v. Wade which has proven its effectiveness already at the United States Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court is listening! Thirty-five years after the Supreme Court legalized abortion-on-demand, the tide has turned. It's the beginning of the end of Roe v. Wade.
Upholding the federal ban on the horrific and gruesome "partial-birth a bortion" procedure, the Supreme Court cited The Justice Foundation's Amicus Brief (also known as a friend of the court brief) in its ruling. The brief was filed on behalf of Sandra Cano, who was "Mary Doe" of Doe v. Bolton (the companion case to Roe v. Wade), and 180 women hurt by abortion.
Citing sworn testimony of women who had abortions presented by The Justice Foundation and acknowledging that abortion hurts women, the Court concluded that "some women come to regret" their abortions. "Whether to have an abortion requires a difficult and painful moral decision" and is "fraught with emotional consequence," the Court said. The Court also noted that "severe depression and loss of esteem can follow" an abortion.

Call News Channel FOX 31 @ 232-3700 Newsroom for interviewing Morris Wortman Abortionist on News at 10PM on March 11th. 2009. I called to complain & was told that the reporter did not know that he was an abortionist but when I spoke with Megan, the reporter in the Newsroom, I was told by her that it would not have mattered. It was their right & they would not be swayed even if they knew he was an abortionist. I told her that he murderers' babies but that didn't bother her at all. It was their right to interview an abortionist if they wanted to. Do you Fox News know how many babies Wortman has murdered & how many women he has hurt over the past 27 years? He stated that he does 1,000 abortions a year, you do the math of how many people he has killed in cold blood for $. He is not a nice person either, though how could he be when he murders little babies & ruins women's lives.
At Highland Hospital in 1986 when I worked there as a nurse he grabbed my arm as I was walking down the hall & he twisted me & hurt my back which affected my right leg, which is painful to this day. Do you realize Fox News how many women & men who saw your news was traumatized when they saw Wortman's face on the TV. Please realize that he has nothing worth wild to say or for us to listen too. There are stories that would curl your hair about Wortman. Maybe in the future I'll share more. One involves a Channel 8 story back about 10 years ago when he had his lady friend, while married, spy on me & he paid her to, etc.
Bad taste Fox!!!!!

Bella Star Eduardo Verástegui Urges Hispanic Voters to Reject Obama Over Abortion
Los Angeles, CA (LifeNews.com) -- Eduardo Verástegui, the former Mexican singer and actor who starred in the hit move "Bella," has recorded a new video asking Hispanic voters in the United States to reject Barack Obama because of his pro-abortion views. Verástegui challenges Latino voters to make abortion issues the centerpiece of their voting decisions.
In the new video, conducted in Spanish, Verástegui, says Obama is out of step with the overwhelming majority of Hispanics who are pro-life.
"We need to put an end to abortion and political candidates play a very important role in this matter," he says.
Verástegui tells viewers that Obama supports abortions throughout pregnancy, including late-term abortions, and has opposed a ban on partial-birth abortions.
Moreover, the actor says Obama "wants to finance abortions with the tax dollars you and I pay."
The Bella star also talks about the votes Obama cast during his tenure in the Illinois legislature that would deprive newborn infants of medical care if they survive botched abortions.
He says Obama "voted on several occasions against a law to protect babies who survived an abortion and were born alive."
Verástegui describes the bill Obama said he would make his first signature as president, the Freedom of Choice Act, that makes legal all abortions throughout pregnancy and overturns every abortion limit in all 50 states.
"Obama is committed to removing all the pro-life laws that in many states currently offer protection to unborn babies and their mothers. Mr. Obama does not agree that the parents of a 13 year-old girl who is pregnant should be notified before she has an abortion," he explains.
"Obama is more interested in maintaining the legality of abortion that in the well-being of the babies, children and families of this country. Let us unite and do something to defend life at every stage, from conception to natural death," he adds.
During the video, Verástegui punctuates his comments with images of unborn children and pictures of babies who died in abortions.
He also condemns how abortion advocates frequently place their abortion businesses in Hispanic communities.
"Abortion is not only a lucrative industry; it is also used by people who are racist as a means to eliminate our people, since they consider us to be a threat to democracy in this country," Verástegui says.
He complains that abortion is legal "because there are not enough men and women who raise their voice against abortion."
Barack Obama's "Freedom of Choice Act" Would Mean 125K More Abortions
by Matt Bowman
LifeNews.com Note: Matt is an attorney with the Alliance Defense Fund, a leading pro-life law firm. This article concerns the so-called Freedom of Choice Act that presidential candidate Barack Obama said he would make signing his first action as president.
With so much attention on the economy, one area of federal legislation that can be overlooked is abortion. An old and dangerous bill that will increase abortions by an enormous amount is being resurrected by abortion advocates: the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA). H.R. 1964 and S.1173.
FOCA is usually reported as "codifying Roe v. Wade," but it is much more. Since the Webster and Casey decisions in 1989 and 1992, the Supreme Court has allowed states to limit abortion somewhat by such things as requiring parental involvement and informed consent, prohibiting government funding of most abortion, and more recently outlawing most partial birth abortions.
But FOCA tolerates none of this. Advocates and opponents of FOCA all agree that the bill would nullify every legal limit on abortion, state, federal or otherwise. Americans United for Life, as well as the Family Research Council, explain this fact in great detail. Abortion advocates who want FOCA concur: NOW, NARAL, Planned Parenthood, and FOCA sponsor Senator Barbara Boxer all contend that FOCA will strike down all state pro-life laws.
The shockwaves that FOCA would cause are immense and wide-ranging, but recent research shows one effect in particular. Certain state laws that are doomed under FOCA actually prevent a statistically significant number of abortions. These laws include parental involvement requirements, informed consent laws, and restrictions on government funding of abortions.
Specifically, if FOCA is passed it will increase abortions by 125,000 more per year in the United States. Since 2004, Dr. Michael New has published studies with the Heritage Foundation showing that a large reduction in abortions can be attributed to these three kinds of laws.
Even considering other reduction factors such as change in public opinion, Dr. New's regression analysis shows that parental involvement laws in a state lead to 0.54 fewer abortions per 1000 women of childbearing age, informed consent laws lead to 0.92 fewer, and state restrictions on Medicaid funding lead to 2.08 fewer.
Both pro-life and pro-abortion organizations tell us which states have these laws in place: 36 states have parental involvement laws, 26 states have informed consent laws, and 34 states have funding restrictions.
The U.S. Census Bureau gives us projections for 2009 of females age 15-44 in each of these states. Then it's a simple matter of cross-referencing the number of women of childbearing age in each state with each abortion restriction, and applying Dr. New's ratio. The grand total number of abortions reduced by these laws is 124,947.6, per year.
This is a minimum. FOCA will strike down other laws, state and federal, that reduce abortions, and will force states to facilitate abortions. 125,000 more abortions is only the tip of the FOCA iceberg.
Even with this minimum, that's 125,000 children that were not killed this year because we have these laws, and 125,000 children (added to the existing 1.3 million abortions) who will be killed in 2009 and every year after if FOCA is passed. FOCA is indeed a staggering expansion of abortion, both in principle and in actual lives lost.

Attacks Coming to Crisis Pregnancy Centers!
Learn the Strategy and Defend CPCs.
Today, SFLA received an alarming e-mail from the Feminist Majority Network (FMN), a pro-abortion organization. The group has launched an effort called the "Campaign to Expose Fake Clinics." Read about their strategy here.
Their goal is to shut down Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs) and prevent them from advertising on college campuses. Simply put, they are afraid of the knowledge CPCs offer women. They don't want word to get out that abortion kills children and harms women.
FMN posts on their website about CPCs: "Some fake clinics coerce and intimidate women out of considering abortion as an option, and prevent women from receiving neutral and comprehensive medical advice. They are typically run by anti-abortion volunteers who are not licensed medical professionals."
Now, they have declared April 13th National Crisis Pregnancy Center Protest Day.
Crisis Pregnancy Centers need you to fight back and be their voice on campus!
Organize your group to volunteer for your local CPC on April 13th.

Update: Pro-Life Pastor Facing Jail
Last Thursday, Rev. Walter Hoye of Berkeley, California was sentenced to serve 30 days in county jail and fined $1,130.00 by Judge Hing of the Alameda Superior Court after being found guilty on January 15, 2009, of unlawfully approaching a person entering an abortion clinic in Oakland, CA. The court is allowing Rev. Hoye to serve his time by an alternative method like community service. Rev. Hoye was also ordered to stay away from the clinic. However, Rev. Hoye refused this term of probation and would not agree to a stay-away order. Nonetheless, the judge is having the order drawn up and refused to accept Rev. Hoye's decision not to agree to the stay-away order.
Read more about Rev. Hoye's case here.
SFLA Group of the Month: University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill
The University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill Students for Life has shown excellence in many areas. This group is continually recruiting, whether it be at their campus organization fair, tabling, clipboarding, or going to other group meetings to invite members to come to their meetings. As new contacts are made, officers split up the list of new members and everyone gets a Facebook friend request, email, and phone call from an officer inviting them to the meeting. They're dedicated to forming relationships with each person in the group.
As a result of their presence on campus, this group has been instrumental in changing the stereotype that pregnant women can't stay in school. They have worked with their student ggvernment and other groups to advocate for better child care on campus.
Prior to this group's activism, their women's health center was illegally using student fee money to promote pro-abortion events, while directing students to Planned Parenthood. To stop this injustice, UNC- Chapel Hill SFL went undercover, and caught the women's center showing this unfair bias on tape. The women's center director was then forced to resign after lying to the school chancellor about her actions.
Due to these efforts and more UNC-Chapel Hill was awarded Group of the Year Runner-Up at the 2009 SFLA conference in Washington DC.

Toni is in therapy three months later, telling her therapist that she did not intend to kill. She was unable to muster the courage to apologise to Darla Dickerson. Reggie's father is in the hospital, and Veronica and Reggie discuss it. Reggie buys a car that looks like the one he had in high school. He buys it for twice the price of the book. He cleans up the automobile, but a vision of him driving with a mysterious woman appears in his mind. Jughead irritates Tabitha by failing to hang the artwork in the flat. They uncover a secret compartment as she knocks through the wall and feels a breeze. There are scotch bottles and tiny boats strewn over the room. Sweetwater River is where La Llorona's spirit arises. Someone is attempting to drown Juniper, Dagwood informs Cheryl.

Jughead and Tabitha are unsure if their feud will be resolved at this time. In his car, Reggie gets a vision of Miss Soprano. Toni offers La Llorona to take her place in order for Anthony to be saved. Toni believes she should be held accountable for Danny Dickerson's death. Toni is condemned to be the new La Llorona, according to the spirit.

Developing Writing Skills is a free online course which is designed for anyone wanting to improve their writing, or English students who wish to enhance their essay-writing abilities.
Covering a number of different styles of writing, as well as punctuation, this course provides you with enough guidelines to express yourself creatively in a variety of writing styles.
Join other 2,550 students taking this course now.
Unlike the writer, online grammar checkers are totally unconcerned with the meaning of your sentence and are simply following a predefined set of rules. While there is no doubt that they are useful, relying on them is highly dangerous. In education, poor punctuation and grammar will cause you to lose marks in essays. Good punctuation and grammar will not only improve your marks, but, used skilfully, can make your arguments more persuasive and engaging.
Almost all employers, and certainly those recruiting for 'graduate level jobs', view effective written communication as a highly desirable skill. It is also a skill that many potential candidates lack; improving your understanding of grammar and punctuation could help you into the career of your choice. Once in your 'graduate level job', you will almost certainly be engaging with the written word in some way. Clearly-written, grammatically-correct, properly-punctuated reports are likely to catch your manager's eye for the right reasons.
After completing this course you will learn about different writing styles and the importance of the audience. You will be aware of the triggers for writing. You will gain a good knowledge of all the types of writing. This course will enable you to write effectively based on your target audience. | {

Gathered in small groups with leaders who are consistently being supported by small groups of other leaders and our ministers, we can begin to step into a lay ministry built on sharing our stories that provides immense opportunity for spiritual deepening and connection to one another.
January is Open Enrollment Month! Click here to read more about it.
Why did you join a small group?
I wanted to see how other UUs put their principles to work in daily American life. | {

Today's episode (in celebration of Countermelody's first birthday!) picks up where the last one left off: more musicals, more opera (and operaish) singers! Excerpts from cast recordings, radio broadcasts, telecasts, and live performances highlight the work of singers who divided their time, to a greater or lesser extent, between the Broadway stage and the operatic stage. We begin with the great bass-baritones (Ezio Pinza, Cesare Siepi, Giorgio Tozzi, and José Van Dam) and move through the great Broadway (and sometime opera) baritones (Alfred Drake, John Raitt, Bruce Yarnell, Robert Trehy, Leslie Scott, Lawrence Winters, and John Reardon) with a nod to other opera singers who have also graced the Broadway stage (Helen Traubel, Shirley Verrett, Mona Paulee, Dorothy Sarnoff, Risë Stevens, Lee Venora, Camilla Williams, and Carol Brice). We then consider singers whose vocal abilities could easily have put them on the opera stage, had they chosen to so devote themselves (Alice Ghostley, Madeline Kahn, Barbara Cook, Florence Henderson, Judy Kaye, Lisa Vroman, Audra McDonald, Victoria Clark, Rebecca Luker, and the late Marin Mazzie). The episode also features tributes to two recently deceased divas (Gabriella Tucci and Christiane Eda-Pierre) as well as a spotlight on the gorgeous soprano Margaret Tynes, who just celebrated her 101st birthday. | {

Q: Swift Realm - "Value of type 'Results' has no member" I am trying to get the data from a RealmDB and filter by id. As the Realm Documentation suggests (https://realm.io/docs/swift/latest/#queries) I am using:
let realm = try! Realm()
let Result = realm.objects(DBName.self).filter("ID == %@", id)
XCode doesn't show any warning or errors in these two lines, but when a try to use the results by doing this:
print(Result.ID)
Even having the ID field in the database a get the error:
Value of type 'Results<DBName>' has no member 'ID'. And I also can't access any other field.
A: realm.objects(DBName.self).filter("ID == %@", id)
This returns all the DBName objects whose ID is id in a Results[doc]. So, the returned value is a list of objects. That is why the error says 'Results<DBName>' has no member 'ID'.
If you are 100% sure you have one object in there, you can try to retrieve the first element this way. (For production, you should always use guard statement to prevent a crash as Jay suggests in the comment section.)
realm.objects(DBName.self).filter("ID == %@", id).first!
Or, if your ID is a primary key, you can do this.
realm.object(ofType: DBName.self, forPrimaryKey: id)

Typological Database of the Ugric Languages
UTDb
Sources of parameters
Welcome to the Typological Database of the Ugric Languages!
Our database (known in short form as the Ugric Typological Database, UTDb) is intended to display the typologically significant features of four varieties of the Uralic Language Family. Each of these belongs to the Ugric sub-branch within the Finno-Ugric branch of Uralic. The varieties are the following: Hungarian (standard variety), Mansi or Vogul (Northern dialect), and Khanty or Ostyak (represented by its two, rather distinct, dialects: Synja and Surgut).
The database includes morphonological, morphological, morphosyntactic and syntactic-level typological features, which are both structural and word order-related. For the purpose of this database, these features are called parameters. For the time being, their number exceeds 200, to be increased, along with that of the varieties analyzed, in the future.
The idea of creating a typological database for the Uralic languages was first presented to the international linguistic community by Ferenc Havas in 2005, at the Tenth International Congress of Finno-Ugrists held in Yoshkar-Ola, Mari El. The project was given a more detailed outline at a topic-oriented international conference held at the University of Vienna in 2008, which was attended by outstanding specialists in both Uralistics and linguistic typology. As one of the main conclusions of the conference, it was stated that constructing a database for the entire language family was but a final outcome: as a first step, a pilot project should rather be undertaken, with a limited number of languages as well as a limited thematic scope. Planning activities continued in 2010 at a dedicated workshop of the Eleventh International Congress of Finno-Ugrists, held in Piliscsaba, Hungary. The pilot project was eventually realized at the Department for Finno-Ugric Studies of Loránd Eötvös University, Budapest, supported by a three-year grant from the Hungarian Scientific Research Fund (OTKA 104249; 1 October 2012 – 30 September 2015). The UTDb, freely accessible online from fall 2015 on, is a result of the project.

US and UK buyers eye world's first moving tower
By Jonathan Brasse, Jonathan Brasse Jonathan Brasse2008-07-17T12:25:00+01:00
According to Rotating Tower Dubai Development, investors from either side of the Atlantic are reserving more of the flats in its first development in Dubai than investors from any other country.
Plans by Florentine architect David Fisher for the innovative tower to be built in New York and Moscow too, were unveiled last month. Since then the developer said it had received more than 600 reservations for the Dubai tower, 140 of them from the US and 94 from the UK. Flats will be priced at up to €20m (£15.8m).
The Dubai tower will have 80 floors and be 420m tall. Each flat is designed to have a 360 degree view as it rotates around a central pillar.
Fund manager identifies pipeline of UK acquisitions ranging from £100m to more than £1bn

I saw the Bag of Holding – Con-Survival Edition at ThinkGeek quite a few months ago, and wanted one of my own. As an avid con attendee myself, I know the importance of a good bag for convention attending. So, I put my Con Bag of Holding to the test for Wizard World Chicago – a big con, with loads of people, a busy schedule for myself, and no room for errors.
I will admit, I love the thought put into this bag. There are two mesh pockets on the sides of the bag, perfect to hold my water or soda bottles. One of the mesh pockets has an open bottom with a drawstring / toggle pull at the bottom so you can either close it, or – as I used it – you can slide a poster into the pocket and tighten the toggle pull and TH DAH! no accidentally sitting your poster down and wandering off without it. Granted, I did have a difficult time maneuvering with my posters, but I also had a long narrow box I was rolling my posters up and sliding them into. Because while the pocket can hold my posters – it can't exactly protect them. But I had thought of this ahead of time.
Another issue I had, and probably my only other real negative, was the pain in the rump of not being able to zip my bag when I had 11×17 prints in the bag (as seen above.) HOWEVER – I've never had a con bag I could zip and carry those in. Most of my frustration was related to the fact Wizard World didn't give me a giant plastic bag with my VIP, which is what I was accustomed to. So, technically, this isn't the fault of my Con Bag of Holding.
Now, back to the positives!
I definitely had more than enough room for my charger, wallet, maps, books, schedules, random small purchases, etc. And they didn't all have to be clumped together, because of the large amount of pockets and whatnot. I knew where things were, could easily reach them, and didn't have to pull over into a corner to awkwardly dump my bag out and figure out where my photo op schedule went. There is also a really nice pocket perfect for an iPad or other eReader type device, which I didn't use. But hey, worth a mention.
So, did I consider my bag worth buying? Yes. Will I be using it at all other cons I attend? Probably. Unless the situation requires a backpack.
Check out the Bag of Holding – Con Survival Edition for yourself! Maybe it'll become your go-to con bag.
I'll have a post up soon about Wizard World Chicago itself! | {

Birds are under attack! Not just from cats and other predators, but from environmental factors, too. Climate change, in particular, is taking a big toll on birds, according to this recent report from the National Audubon Society. Global warming is changing the habitats where many birds live, forcing them to move into different regions that may not offer the food and shelter they've evolved to expect.
One way you can help is by doing your part to use less energy. But it's important to help protect the birds in your yard and neighborhood, too. Here's how.
1) Provide a source of water. Set up some clean water sources that birds can use for drinking and feeding. Elevated bird baths that are out in the open are a good option, so that predators, especially outdoor cats, can easily be seen. Change the water every other day and scrub out occasionally with a wiry brush so that algae doesn't build up on the bottom of the dish or bowl.
2) Elevate bird feeders. If you opt to feed birds, make sure the feeders are elevated as another way to protect against cats. You can also put a squirrel protector on the bird feeder. This inverted structure looks a little like an umbrella. Positioned below the feeder but on the pole, it prevents squirrels from getting to the seeds.
3) Keep your cat indoors, especially during the day. Cats can't help themselves. They're predators, and they'll pounce on a bird if they get a chance. If your cat must go outside, try to restrict the time to after dark, when most birds will be safely roosting in the top branches of trees. You can also put a bell on your cat's collar, which will tinkle and alert the bird that a cat is approaching.
4) Plant native plants and trees. Native landscape gives birds cover, food, and places where they can build their nests. You can check with your county extension service or local gardening center to determine which plants are native to your area.
5) Put up bird houses. Bird houses or nest boxes are especially helpful in urban and suburban neighborhoods where nesting trees may be scarce. Clean out the bird houses in late winter; after a while, they can get so filled with sticks and other material that there's no room for the bird to nest.
6) Garden organically. Birds feed on insects, worms, seeds, berries and fruit that grow in your landscape. When you spray your lawn or garden with pesticides and herbicides, those toxic chemicals can poison the birds that eat them, as well. Skip the chemicals in favor of biological controls that maintain a healthy balance and keep the birds singing.
7) Reduce window strikes. Some scientists estimate that birds flying into windows that reflect the scenery around them may be second only to habitat loss in accounting for bird deaths each year. Hang bird feeders well away from windows. Tape long strips of mylar tape or weather-resistant fabric to your windows to scare birds away. Draw your shades at night so migrating birds will not be attracted by the light during their long journeys north and south. Awnings can also shade your windows and reduce the reflections that birds mistake for trees and forests.
How do you protect birds?
* fill a glass with water from the kitchen sink and pour it outside where water collects to form a puddle (such as the end of the driveway or a dip in the sidewalk) for birds to drink or bath in.
*for those who want to have kids, limit yourself to having one child or two children at most or adopt instead. Sacrifice creating another human life to save an animal life.

Parsha People
A weekly blog on the people and characters in the parsha
Parshas Noach 5778
What was special about Nimrod?
The Torah writes (Genesis 10:8-10):
Cush also begot Nimrod, who was the first man of might on earth. He was a mighty hunter by the grace of the LORD; hence the saying, "Like Nimrod a mighty hunter by the grace of the LORD." The mainstays of his kingdom were Babylon, Erech, Accad, and Calneh in the land of Shinar.
Rashi (ibid) explains that he convinced others to build the Tower of Babel:
Mighty in causing the whole world to rebel against the Holy One, blessed be He, by the plan he devised for the generation that witnessed the separation of the races (דור הפלגה) to build the Tower of Babel.
Targum Jerusalem explains that he convinced people not to listen to Shem:
He was mighty in hunting and in sin before the Lord; for he was a hunter of the sons of men in their languages. And he said to them, Leave the judgments of Shem, and adhere to the judgments of Nimrod.
(see also this article connecting Nimrod with Hammurabi like this: Amraphel is Hammurabi, and Chazal connect Amraphel with Nimrod, and this Targum)
Midrash Tanchuma (Lech Lecha 16) explains that Nimrod caused people to do idolatry:
This refers to Nimrod the Wicked, who used to make images and lead astray the children of Adam; for idolatry resembles falsehood
Chizkuni (Genesis 10:12) explains that people worshiped Nimrod as a G-d:
... Ashur was being disgusted with his own children acclaiming Nimrod as deity, so much so that he decided to move far north east ...
Ibn Ezra and Radak explain that this referred to his hunting prowess:
MIGHTY - to show the strength of men over the animals for he was a great hunter. BEFORE THE LORD —for he built altars and sacrificed animals on them to G-d
Chizkuni (ibid) explains that this was a preparation for Abraham:
... as predicted in the name of the Lord." ... The Torah tells us that G-d decreed that a person of the type of Nimrod had to arise in order for Avraham to demonstrate that one could prevail even against such mighty warriors who defied the Lord ... According to tradition no ferocious beast ever escaped alive in an encounter with Nimrod. He was aided by G-d in attaining such a reputation so that G-d could demonstrate in due course that such apparently invincible warriors could not prevail against Him.
Tur Ha-Aroch (Genesis 10:7) explains that this was singling him out because he did not create a nation:
On the other hand, Nimrod did not develop into being founder of a nation. We know this because the Torah describes his exploits in a different manner in verse 9. We would have expected the Torah to write: ובני כוש נמרד, following the pattern established since the beginning of the chapter.
HaEmek Davar (ibid) explains that this was about rulership:
FIRST MAN OF MIGHT - From him originated the concept of kingship and rule over men. Truly, this was the will of G-d in order to upkeep the world for without a government, a fellow would eat his friend alive, and Nimrod was the one who began this. MIGHTY HUNTER BEFORE THE LORD - for through this he completed the will of G-d ... and therefore they say this over a man who was wicked but his deeds are desirable before G-d, and it is a wonder so they say "like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord".
Tur HaAruch (Genesis 10:13) explains in a similar way but referring to war:
The correct interpretation of our verse (author's words) is that he was the first individual to assert his power over his fellow human beings, making them subject to his will. He introduced organized warfare, commencing with his capture of Babylon. He followed this up by subjecting Assyria to his rule.
Radak explains in a similar fashion but learns that Nimrod lived after the separation of the people:
Nimrod displayed his power and bravery either vis a vis one nation, or even vis a vis numerous nations by conquering them and being appointed or appointing himself as their ruler, their king. Until the time of Nimrod no one had possessed the effrontery to lord it wholesale over his fellow man. Nimrod invented the concept of "dictator." These developments were a by-product of mankind having dispersed over different areas of the globe after the collapse of their attempt to "conquer" heaven.
Malbim (Esther 1:1) explains the type of monarchy Nimrod had:
There were two types of monarchies:
The first was a monarchy in which the king was elected by the people.
The second type of monarchy was rule by force, in which the king conquered the country and became its ruler against the wishes of the people.
This is what is told about Nimrod, and from these two appear two different types of governing:
A. The powers of the king in the first type of monarchy were limited. The limitations to his actions are known. The limits of his powers were legislated already at the time of his election. Upon taking office, the king swore to follow the laws and practices of the country.
B. In the second type of monarchy, however, the powers of the king were unlimited. He does what he desires. Though he might seek the advice of ministers, he did what he wanted, changing the laws of the country and its practices as he saw fit. He is the king and the law maker, all in one.
When Did Nimrod Attack Abraham?
Midrash Rabbah (Bereishis Rabbah 38:13) explains that this was when Abraham rebelled against his father:
Terah took Abraham and passed him off to [King] Nimrod. ... Nimrod replied: You're just speaking words - I only worship fire. I will throw you into it, and the God you worship can save you from it.
Rabbeinu Bachya (Genesis 15:8) writes that Nimrod also tried to kill Abraham at birth:
According to a comment in the Sefer Hayashar at the time Avram was born a certain star in the eastern sky "swallowed " four other stars in four directions of the sky. At that time Nimrod's advisors said to him: "at this moment a son has been born to Terach whose descendants will produce a nation which will inherit the whole earth as well as the hereafter. If you agree, let us give his father a house full of gold and silver and get his permission to kill the baby."
How Did Nimrod Die?
Daas Zeikenim (Genesis 25:30) explains:
for I am tired, worn out;" according to tradition, on that day Esau had killed Nimrod the foremost hunter in the world up to that time, and its ruler. Nimrod had challenged him to a duel as he had not asked him for permission to use his hunting grounds. He had consulted with his brother what to do about this. Yaakov had told him that as long as Nimrod was wearing the garments which had once belonged to Adam he was invincible. As soon as he would take off those garments he could easily be overcome. Esau engineered to find him without those garments and killed him. On that day he was exhausted from that effort.
Who Was Related to Nimrod?
According to Targum Jonathan (Genesis 14:14) Eliezer was Nimrod's son:
And when Abram heard that his brother was made captive, he armed his young men who were trained for war, grown up in his house; but they willed not to go with him. And he chose from them Eliezer the son of Nimrod, who was equal in strength to all the three hundred and eighteen; and he pursued unto Dan.
(Chizkuni on Genesis 15:2 learns it was his grandson, not son)
Targum Jonathan (Genesis 16:5) says that Hagar was his granddaughter:
And Sara said to Abram, All my affliction is from thee. Being secure that thou wouldst do me justice, I left the land and house of my father, and came up with thee to a foreign land; and forasmuch as I was not able to become a mother, I set free my handmaid, and gave her to lie in thy bosom; and she seeth that she had conceived, and mine honour is despised before her. But now is my affliction manifest before the Lord, who will spread peace between me and thee, and the land shall be replenished from us, nor shall we need the help of the progeny of Hagar the daughter of Pharoh bar Nimrod, who threw thee into the furnace of fire.
The Talmud (Chagigah 13a) learns that Nebuchadnezzar was a descendant of Nimrod (see Rashi ibid):
Rabbi Yochanan the son of Zakai said, "What is the answer that the heavenly voice answered to the same evildoer when he said, "I shall ascend on the heights of dense ground to the One Above (Isaiah 14:14)"? A heavenly voice went out and said to him, 'Evildoer the son of an evildoer the grandson of Nimrod the evildoer, who made the whole earth rebel against His rule.'"
What Gift Did Nimrod Give to Abraham?
Pirkei DeRabbi Eliezer (16) says that he gave him Eliezer (who was Og):
"The elder of the house of Abraham" was Eliezer, his servant. How did he become his servant? When he (i.e. Abraham) was leaving Ur Kasdim, all the great people of the generation gave him gifts. Nimrod signed over his servant Eliezer to Abraham. When he did kindness with Isaac, his son, Abraham freed him and G-d have him rewards in this world and he became king - he was Og, the king of Bashan.
(see above that Eliezer was Nimrod son or grandson)
Targum Jonathan (Genesis 48:22) says this refers to the garments of Adam:
And I, behold, I have given thee one portion. Above thy brethren, the robe of the first Adam. Abraham the father of my father took it from the hands of Nimrod the Wicked, and gave it to Izhak my father; and Izhak my father gave it to Esau, and I took it from the hands of Esau my brother, not with my sword nor with my bow, but through my righteousness and my good works.

Parshas Bereishis 5778
It is often thought that Parshas Bereishis which describes the account of creation of the world is in conflict with modern science. However, if we explore the entire spectrum of commentators, midrashim, meforshim, etc. there is plenty of room to reconcile the modern scientific view of how the Universe begin with one described in the Torah.
Who Created the World?
The Torah teaches us that the Universe was created by G-d, and that it has both a beginning and an end. However, according to science prior to the development of modern physics it was thought that the Universe existed forever and thus did not have a Creator. This view originated with the ancient Greek philosophers. However, in the last 100 years, a new scientific consensus developed which described the Universe as having a beginning (Big Bang theory) and possibly an end as well (Big Freeze or Big Crunch). This aligns closer to what the Torah is described than the older, "eternal universe" model. Modern physics does not however claim to have found what the original cause of the Universe coming into being was (although research into quantum fluctuations and such continues). Therefore, it seems that both science and the Torah agree that the Universe had a beginning and while the Torah claims that the beginning was caused by the Creator, science currently doesn't have an answer to that.
How was the Universe Created?
It is common to assume that every day of the first six days of Creation, G-d created something new. However, according to Rashi and other commentators all matter was created on the first day and then shaped/formed on the other days. The Ramban goes even further and explains that all of the matter in the Universe was initially created from nothing as a compressed dot and from that single dot / point, all of the Universe was shaped. This approach dovetails nicely with the prevalent scientific theory of the Big Bang where everything in the Universe came into being in some sort of a singularity from which everything else came from. However, it is important to note that the fact of who created the Universe is more important than the how.
When was the Universe Created?
According to the Torah, it seems that the Universe was created in six days, and less than 6,000 years ago. According to science, the Universe begun almost 14 billion years ago and the process did not take six days. First of all, it is interesting to note that the three measures of time that humans use are all derived from the movement of planetary bodies and those are: a day (from sun rise to sun rise), a month (from new moon to new moon) and a year (from sun position in the sky). If according to the Torah, the various celestial bodies were put in to place on the fourth day of Creation, how can the first three days be measured? Many of the commentators end up resolving this issue by relying on the primordial Light and Darkness to measure days and nights, instead of the sun, moon and the earth. So seemingly, the clock and measurements during the first six days of Creation, were not the necessarily the same as what we use today. Second, our calendar does not count from the first day of Creation but rather the sixth - the Creation of Man. One can argue, that perhaps the calendar may have even started towards the end of the sixth day when man was created, and all of the time prior to that may be using a different clock - which can be longer. As noted earlier, it is still more important to know who rather than when the Universe was created.

Parshas Zos haBracha 5778
In this week's parsha we find various blessings given by Moses to the various tribes. While most of us grew up with a view of these verses as interpreted by Rashi, there are many other opinions in the commentators. Here are some selected ones (see Sefer Shaarei Aharon for a complete list).
Reuben - the blessing that Moses gave this tribe was that "may Reuben live and not die". The obvious issue with this verse is that Reuben already died. While Rashi interprets this as referring to the world to come, Targum Onkelos interprets this as referring to the future day of Judgment and the death of the wicked following that day, thus asking G-d not to judge Reuben as wicked. Rabbeinu Bachya interprets this verse as a reference to reincarnation, asking G-d not to reincarnate Reuben again and let him die again, but rather keep him alive in the World of Souls.
Simeon - is skipped, either because he never repented from the story of Schechem or because of the story of Baal Peor.
Judah - Tzror HaMor interprets the blessing as a reference to the four ways kings often win wars. As follows (33:7): "Hear, O LORD the voice of Judah" - through prayer; "And restore him to his people" - through a larger army; "Though his own hands strive for him" - through their own strength; "Help him against his foes." - through outside help from G-d but not other human beings
Levi - while Rashi interprets the verse of the Tribe of Levi not knowing their families as a reference to the Golden Calf, Targum Jonathan interprets that verse as a reference to their work in the Temple / Tabernacle. Because the Tribe of Levi is performing their work elsewhere, they often do not see their families.
Benjamin - while Rashi interprets the blessing as referring to the land of Benjamin; the Talmud (Baba Bathra 17a) teaches us that this blessing means that Benjamin's body did not decay. The Talmud (Shabbos 55b) also tells us that Benjamin was one of the four people who never sinned.
Joseph - Rabbeinu Bachya cites from a Midrash that Joseph got a blessing for his land because he withstood the temptation of Potiphar's wife while Adam (the first man) got the land cursed because he listened to his wife. Also, Rashi interprets part of the blessing as referring to water coming from below the land, seemingly as a reference to mountain aquifer in Israel.
Zebulun and Issachar - the blessing to these tribes is interpreted by Rashi as a reference to Zebulun's commerce and Issachar's learning. Bechor Shor and Hizkuni interpret this as a reference to the commerce of Zebulun because he lived on the sea shore, and the tents that Issachar spread to watch over his fields because they were bountiful and he did not need to go out for commerce like his brother. HaEmek Davar learns that Zebulun and Issachar went to war together, and while Zebulun fought his brother had tents near the battle where he learned and prayed for his brother.
Gad - Shach learns that Gad wanted his land even though it was impure due to idol worship because Moses was going to be buried there. Malbim learns that they picked that land because it was given by Moses himself and not selected by lottery.
Dan - Gra learns that Dan is compared to a lion just like Judah, because they took land on opposite ends of Israel. Mincha Belula learns that Messiah will come from these two tribes with his mother from Dan, and his father from Judah.
Naphtali - HaEmek Davar learns that there are two types of riches - actual riches and being happy with what one has, and Naphtali had both.
Asher - Chizkuni learns that Asher was the one who told the other brothers about the story of Reuben and the couch. The brothers scolded him for it, and Moses here reverts that. The Talmud (Succah 56) teaches us that the brothers excommunicated Asher when they say that his daughter Serach knew that Joseph was sold (through prophecy). Moses here reverts the curse. Gra learns that the children of Asher were beautiful because of the oil and they married Kohanim who were rich (because of the incense).

AMFF Partnering with Wonders of Wildlife

Museum Memories
September 5, 2018|In Journal|By Sara Wilcox
Birds of a Feather: The Founding Days of the Museum By Ted Rogowski
It all started in 1968 with a bundle of bamboo fly rods—some rare—in a corner of the Orvis shop. Leigh Perkins was trading a new rod at twenty percent discount for your old bamboo rod, and Hermann Kessler, husband of Helen Shaw (a fly-tying legend in her own right), saw a Leonard rarity among the turn-ins. Having also recently come across the magnificent fly panel display created by Mary Orvis Marbury, Kessler noted, "These belong in a museum!" Thus, the germ of the American Museum of Fly Fishing was born.
The creative genius of Leigh Perkins was not to be denied. Leigh offered Kessler Vermont bait that would attract him, Ed Zern, Arnold Gingrich, Gene Anderegg, and me more strongly than Vermont cheddar: an invitation to hunt partridge over two champion Perkins spaniels. This was an organizing crew who couldn't resist bird hunting Vermont woods after drafting and legal sessions on several October Saturday mornings: a fly-fishing museum we shall have! Room and board for the five guests was conveniently arranged at the Perkins residence with sheets thrown over couches, sleeping bags borrowed from the teenaged boys, twelve scrambled eggs (medium, please!), and half a loaf of bread at each breakfast sitting. Gingrich dried dishes as well as he punctuated the grammar of Esquire magazine.
At the hunt, the pair of retrievers carried an awful trait: regardless of who downed the flushed bird, the bird was retrieved and returned directly to Leigh. (They knew who was in charge of roast partridge for dinner.) So, the very first museum was a rack of fine bamboo fly rods set along the far wall of the Orvis shop. The weekend ventures orchestrated by Leigh yielded the museum charter, the IRS 501(c)3 paperwork, and four Vermont partridge for the dinner table.
Upon graduation from Columbia Law School in 1956, Ted Rogowski practiced in New York City with Cadwalader, Wickersham and Taft. Fishing and hunting experiences were gained with the Mid-town Club each Wednesday at Manny Wolf's Chop House. His career law practice was with the Environmental Protection Agency, first in Washington, D.C. (1966–1972), then in Seattle (1972–1992).

It's the People Who CountBy James Hardman
Trustee Emeritus James Hardman (left) and Bob Selb in 2014.
For the past twenty-five years at the American Museum of Fly Fishing, I have been a volunteer—a helper, a facilitator, a photographer, and at times a builder—but most of all, I've been an observer.
Most of my time was spent cataloging our reels. We have evolved through at least three database programs, each with upgrades and advantages. Tours of our exhibits now online will ultimately lead to online access to our archives. We are setting new standards of professionalism.
And it's the people who count. It helps that we share the common passion and interest of the sport and history of fly fishing, but over the years, the people who made our museum "go"—our trustees, our directors, our staff, and our volunteers—have pulled together to maximize our individual strengths.
Abraham Lincoln practiced a management style that remains relevant today and has been embraced by several of our directors: get out of the office, get to know the people, plant the vision, listen to the people, and pull them together to make things happen. This was described as "management by wandering around" by Thomas J. Peters and Robert H. Waterman Jr. in their 1982 book, In Search of Excellence.
If there is one quality that truly sets our museum apart from so many others, it is our presentation. Our exhibits and our journal are striking and well respected. The content, artistic impact, and "telling the story" have been impressive.
If we are to celebrate anything in our fifty-year history, it is our success in marrying vision with effective management. As a friend from Jersey City put it, "We done good." Our museum people have done good. Three cheers for our people: for their vision, wisdom, financial support, effort, creativity, and accomplishments!
And a hearty huzzah to everyone who has made it happen these past fifty years—and to those who make it happen today.
Trustee Emeritus James Hardman is a machinist and has studied, collected, and restored early reels for more than forty years. His most recent contribution to the journal was the two-part "Synthetics in Fishing Tackle—What's in the Mix: Natural Rubber, Gutta-Percha, and Modified 'Stuff,'" which appeared in Winter and Spring 2012 (vol. 38, nos. 1 and 2).
Fifty YearsBy Richard Tisch
A small museum achieving a half-century life span is notable. I have been a trustee of the American Museum of Fly Fishing for about a quarter century. My tenure is neither an achievement nor notable, but it is a happy circumstance for me. A few other trustees share this longevity, with one far exceeding it and some almost reaching it. Such loyalty by many, however, is notable. Why do these trustees—and almost three dozen other women and men—devote their time and energy and annually donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to this modest nonprofit in rural Vermont?
Why do many others, former trustees, other members of AMFF, and unaffiliated people give to this charity?
Why are there staff members of this wonderful museum with tenures matching mine?
Why does AMFF even exist? (Some of my nonfishing friends have asked me this question.)
AMFF is one of about 35,000 museums in the United States (that number is greater by far than the total of Starbucks and McDonald's in America—this is a good thing). It is one of more than 1,500,000 nonprofits in the United States. But it is also the only museum in the world with such a remarkable number and variety of fly-fishing artifacts: rods, reels, flies, books, artwork, etc. And people still donate to it. In the past six months, the museum has received a collection of more than two hundred angling books; several limited-edition books; a Seamaster saltwater fly reel; fifteen new flies developed and tied by a renowned western fly fisher; and a three-piece, 10-foot Calcutta cane rod. This is just a sampling of recent donations, which, I expect, will continue.
So what are the answers to these questions?
Here are mine: I love fly fishing and have for more than fifty years. I love the pristine streams and rivers, the flats and oceans in which game fish swim. I love the challenge of casting flies to them, often without success. I love the deliberate rise of a trout, the slashing strike of a northern pike (yes, a pike), the soaring leaps of tarpon, and unforgettable pulls of Atlantic salmon. And I love the surroundings in which all these fish live. As well, I believe E. T. Brown got it right: "When they go fishing, it is not really fish they are after. It is a philosophic meditation."*
Finally, I suspect many other devotees of the museum share these feelings and want to ensure, as I do, that the joys of fly fishing and its rich tradition are available to others.
Richard Tisch is a trustee and past president of the American Museum of Fly Fishing.

Cramer, ed., "Appendix: Misquotation and Misattributions," The Quotable Thoreau (Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, 2011), 466, the misattribution being "Many men fish all their lives without ever realizing that it is not the fish they are after."

Woodstock Soapstone Co. Blog: Oops! We Stand Corrected!
What about cordwood? These tests were done with "cribs" (read more about "cribs" here) rather than cordwood. More recently, EPA approved our request for approval to test with cordwood, and we will probably test again with "real-world" wood. The approved method is new, and we would be the first company to use it. There are still some bugs to be worked out, and the test lab has never used the method, so we think it will be a few months before it happens.
We believe our emission results using cordwood will be quite close to these results, and the overall efficiency will go up with cordwood. Most of our preliminary testing was done with cordwood, and the stove was "tuned" with cordwood.
We are getting closer and closer to our goal of zero emissions. As far as we know, we are in the lead in the race to get to zero. Our objective is to consistently surpass our previous weighted average emissions with each new stove producing lower numbers. Our new Absolute Steel Hybrid is no exception! | {

Q: How to pass the text as a parameter in cypress get command I am using Cypress tool in one of my projects and I can find some element containing a text, say XYZ, using something like this -
myElement() {
return cy.get('span:contains("XYZ")');
}
.
However, I want to make this method generic by passing this value XYZ as a parameter.
I tried something like this but it did not work -
myElement(text) {
return cy.get('span:contains(text)');
}
Can somebody please tell how this can be achieved?
Thanks in Advance..!!
A: The way to use a parameter inside the function in the selector string is with Template literals.
Use back-ticks to create the selector string
function myElement(text) {
const selector = `span:contains(${text})`
return cy.get(selector);
}
or shorter
function myElement(text) {
return cy.get(`span:contains(${text})`);
}
or custom command
Cypress.Commands.add('findElementWithText', (text) => {
cy.get(`span:contains(${text})`);
})
or using Cypress contains() does not need template literals
Cypress.Commands.add('findElementWithText', (text) => {
cy.contains('span', text);
})
A: You can use Cypress custom command to achieve this. Go to cypress/support/commands.js and write:
Cypress.Commands.add('findElementWithText', (text) => {
cy.get(`span:contains(${text})`);
})
In your tests you can write:
cy.findElementWithText('randomText1')
cy.findElementWithText('randomText2')

If it seems like energy prices are rising every six months, that's because they are.
According to the OEB's news release, this will translate to an increase of approximately $4.42 per month on the electricity line and 3.4% on the total bill.
These devices become easier and more efficient to use all the time. Some models will even allow you to use your phone to set the temperature based on your schedule. By creating a system where you turn up your heat shortly before the peak hours start and down when they do, you'll save money.
With new technology being developed every day; HVAC systems aren't what they used to be… they're better. A new, high efficiency system can conserve a lot of energy, saving you money in the process.
Also, there's no better time to upgrade your system as there are fall rebates offered by some of our manufacturers and provincial incentives to take advantage of, a combination of Daikin's current offer and the IESO's can save you up to $1,850 on a new furnace and air conditioner.

All fish caught on Z-Man plastics. Released another half dozen trout and five reds. Before anyone freaks out, the limit in GA is 15 per person, 14" TL.
Heck with the limit... Heineken in a can????
You see any shrimp skipping about up there?
Need some pictures of the location and bait set up.........just so I can be really frustrated! | {

Energy Utilities : Powering the Next Wave of IT-OT Integration
Energy Utilities : Powering
the Next Wave of IT-OT Integration
Leveraging ERP for exponential returns from OT investments
Late to the ERP party
Energy and Utilities have traditionally been conservative in their approach to innovation and technology, especially when it comes to Business Solution Platforms. With one eye on safety, the industry has historically been risk averse and has had its arms tied by regulations. Secondly, planning processes in the industry span 15 to 20 years, making it tough for decision-makers to place their bets on technologies that will succeed in the long-term. The industry can't really be blamed for being slow when it comes to new technology adoption. But there are many favorable aspects that the industry can lean on to launch large-scale transformation projects. This transformation is becoming essential in the face of business changes and a world where consumers are tech-savvy.
Utilities have fallen behind other industries such as Retail, Consumer Goods, Banking and Manufacturing that have always needed to be on the cuttingedge of technology. These industries adopted ERP in the 80s. Today, ERP has become a rugged, reliable and valuable tool to generate efficiency, build data-based decision-making capabilities, support regulatory incentives and deliver outstanding customer service.
But the real good news is this: Utilities have always been at the forefront of connecting geographically dispersed assets and their operations. Even though the infrastructure is old-styled, reminiscent of the 1970s, the industry can lay claim to being early adopters of Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) or PLCs (Programmable Logic Controls) to stay on top of operations.
In other words, there is a dichotomy that must be addressed. While Utilities are making tremendous progress, adding advanced sensors and devices to their networks that drive smart grids and help them align with the growing imperatives of renewables, they are also beginning to realize that IT in the form of ERP will substantially multiply returns on OT technology investments.
Today, ERP has become a rugged, reliable and valuable tool to generate efficiency, support regulatory incentives and deliver outstanding customer service.
Tapping into never-before opportunities
The IT-OT integration space is, therefore, gaining in importance. It presents never before opportunities within the industry. These include the critical ability to ensure predictive maintenance that lowers downtime and costs while simultaneously improves safety and customer satisfaction. Take the simple every day case of a faulty plant compressor that produces abnormal vibrations. OT will have noticed it and would have done a comparison with vibration patterns from scores of other compressors. It would have reached the conclusion that the compressor needs replacement. This is, doubtless, the right conclusion. But today's systems do not allow operations teams to quickly look up the action taken the last time a compressor failed, the spares were used for repairs, the materials are available in the inventory for current repairs, the lead time suppliers need, are the skills to repair the compressor available in-house or must be requisitioned from a supplier. All these mapped against how critical the compressor is to current operations and a forecast of near-future demand. To do this with unerring accuracy, IT-OT integration must become a reality.
While OT generates readings, IT provides an update on how best to manage it so that:
Efficiency improves
Downtime is reduced
Costs are lowered
Risk to assets is minimized
Customer satisfaction is improved
Shining a light on the road ahead
In the excitement of undertaking IT-OT integration, Utilities must keep two critical factors in focus: First, create a roadmap – identify use cases that ensure higher efficiency that guarantee the overall success of the IT-OT integration initiative; second, place inordinate stress on security – ERP systems entail opening enterprise systems to suppliers, support partners and business associates in order to ensure velocity of business. This could lead to security issues.
As far back as 2007, the US government demonstrated how hackers could bring down power plants by injecting a mere 21 lines of code into SCADA networks1. In early 2016, a Western Ukraine Power Company reported2 that the power cut in December 2015 was caused by hackers sabotaging operations and management systems, impacting 80,000 consumers. As IT-OT convergence becomes everyday reality, cyberattacks and risk from malware will increase at equal pace, turning security into a real challenge that Utility organizations must manage.
No discussion on IT-OT integration can be complete without a mention of the need for cultural change management. While identifying the right use cases determines ROI and managing security is a must, it is organizational culture which is the hidden enemy of IT-OT integration. The people who manage OT and those who manage IT come from very different backgrounds. Their work environments are dramatically different and their mind-sets very dissimilar. Ensuring they work together as a team is a challenge organizations fail to adequately recognize.
At the bottom of this is the real pressure of profitability. While operational costs continue to rise, regulations prevent Utilities from increasing energy prices to meet those costs. Margins are becoming thin. The only way to improve margins is to improve operational efficiency—and this is where IT-OT integration becomes an unavoidable imperative.

Meet Sister Margaret Lederer
Having been taught by the Sisters of Notre Dame for 12 years, it was not surprising that young Margaret Lederer entertained the idea of becoming a Sister herself. And certainly Sisters like Marie Veronica Wagner helped sway Margaret's decision. It wasn't anything particular that Sr. Marie Veronica said, but her very person. "Sister was a very simple, very holy person. An authentic person. I connected with that," Margaret remembers.
After completing her bachelor's degree in music and English at the College of Notre Dame, Sr. Margaret (Joseph Louise) began teaching 4th graders at Notre Dame Elementary School in San Francisco. Shortly after the Watts Riots in 1965 she was assigned to Mother of Sorrows School in Los Angeles located in a then predominantly black area. "I didn't worry about it [racial tension], I just went where I was assigned and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. I loved the people and the culture."

An assignment to St. Mark's School in Seattle in 1974 brought her to Washington State where she taught and served as prinicipal at a variety of parish schools for the next 26 years. At St. Rose in Longview, Sr. Margaret remembers replacing a much-loved principal who had to step down due to health problems. What could have been a difficult situation was anything but. "The teachers, children and families were so warm and welcoming. I loved being there."
Recently, Sr. Margaret brought her long-time teaching experience (nearly 40 years!) to a position suggested to her by a friend. An animal lover all her life, Sr. Margaret loves her educational outreach and public relations work at the Humane Society. In this position she works with two very different spectrums of society. She visits preschools to teach animal safety and respect and on other days she visits nursing homes to bring, well, love, and she doesn't go alone. She brings her faithful four-legged friend Angel. "When I walk in to a nursing home with Angel, everyone says 'Oh look…it's Angel' and all the faces light up."
A former co-worker from St. Mark's School in Seattle and a life-long friend, Diane Howe shares, "Sister is a remarkable woman with an enormous capacity to love. From that love springs all of her other wonderful gifts: her kindness and generosity; her dedication to her work; her patience and understanding. Margaret is a living manifestation of God's presence among us."
Looking back on over 50 years as a Sister, Margaret is grateful for all the people who have been part of her life and helped her on her journey as a person and a Sister of Notre Dame.

It isn't news that teenagers like to sleep in late. What is relatively new is neuroscientists' claim that the tendency of the young to lie in bed until noon is largely due to their hormones and so not really their 'fault'.
It's been shown that one of the changes brought about by puberty is a change in the daily rhythm of sleep and wakefulness. Children get sleepy early in the evening and wake early in the morning. As they go through puberty, the time when they are ready for bed gets later in the evening, and so does the time when they are ready to wake up in the morning.
Russell Foster, Professor of Circadian Neuroscience at Oxford University, believes that the role of sleep is undervalued. He's reported as saying: "Sleep is fundamentally important but despite this it's been largely ignored as part of our biology,"
Studies suggest that teens do better with a working day that starts and finishes later than the 9.00-4.00 that's expected of them today. Indeed, there have been experiments in altering High School timetables to suit teenage metabolisms.
Whether that will help remains to be seen, but in the meantime, parents need to support their teenagers so that they can function as well as possible in conformity to adult expectations of routine and punctuality. The outside world may not be ideal for teenagers, but that doesn't mean that they are doomed to be exhausted and miserable until they grow up.
There are habits they can develop to help make daily life less of a struggle, especially when they are leaving home to attend college.
Get them in the habit of turning off TVs, computers and any other electronic devices at night. Using these gadgets can be compulsive, and they need to learn to switch off at 11.00 pm. If they develop that habit at home, it will be easier for them at college. It's not just the mental stimulation of game playing through the night that's the problem: the light produced by electronic devices has been shown to interfere with healthy sleep.
Buy your teen a coffee maker. One with an integral timer is an excellent aid to getting up in the morning. Even teenagers will want to rise and shine if a cup of good hot coffee is ready and waiting for them. It's a good idea to get a robust machine like a Krups, which can last throughout student days and beyond. Krups coffee maker parts can be found on the internet if they need replacing. They are well-made machines and should give good service to your teenager.
Help to make the student's room a pleasant space to work, live and sleep. The sleeping area should be uncluttered and as far as possible from distracting activities. A clear environment will help the student to relax and feel calm. Unfortunately, difficulty in keeping a personal space tidy and organized seems, like late rising, to be a common teenage problem.
In the end, all you can do is explain, help and facilitate. Whether the newly independent student ends up being organized and hardworking or chaotic is, in the end, his or her own responsibility. Andrew King is an empty nester. He frequently writes his favorite ideas for staying close with college students on parenting blogs. | {

I've gotten to know Alice and her family pretty well now since our move back to Long Island two years ago. She's not only a long time friend to my husband but she's become a really great friend to me too! And she's crazy creative and artsy too… like the knitting she does is 10,000% – check out her insta here!
I have done countless session with her from her maternity to her home birth to newborn images of Ellie. I was really excited when she wanted to gift her in-laws-to-be a extended family session for the holidays. We waited until we had one of those sneaky spring days back in May when it was warm and the sun was shinning so golden. We choose to have the session at Harborfront Park in Port Jefferson. The tide was low and the wind wasn't so bad – I absolutely adore how this session went!
Once the big kids ( not shown here for privacy reasons) started laughing at my corny jokes we were getting some genuine playful smiles! After the whole family was done Alice, Adam and Ellie wanted to venture onto the dock for some more and I of course happily obliged – I mean, who wouldn't.
I can't wait for August to get here and watch Alice and Adam get hitched – it's going to be absolutely gorgeous.
If you love what you've seen and want to book your own extend family session I'd love to send you more info about it – head over to my investment page to send me an email!
Love these! I like doing extended family sessions. The beach was a perfect setting.
What a happy, sweet family! These are beautiful! | {

As we gradually approach summer, we take our monthly look at the latest visa bulletin provided by the Department of State to see where the green card final action dates have moved. Keep reading if terms such as "final action dates" and "priority dates" are new for you. If you are already familiar with how a green card works, you can go straight to the report.
So, if you are interested in getting a green card but have never encountered the monthly visa bulletins, here are some definitions to get you up to speed.
Priority Date – This is the date that the USCIS receives your green card petition (not the date that you file it). This is the date that you should keep in mind when looking over the May visa bulletin report.
Final Action Date – These dates are what you will see listed below. Each month, these dates have the potential to change. They could move forward, stay in place, or retrogress (move backward). Once the final action date in your category matches or passes your priority date, the latter will be considered "current" and you will be able to adjust your status or make an appointment for consular processing.
There is a limited number of green cards that are made available each year to each country. Some countries (especially those that are more populated) petition for more visas than the limit, which creates a backlog. If your priority date will not be current for several years, then your country has oversubscribed its category.
If the final action date for your category and country has a "C" in it, then your priority date is current as soon as the USCIS receives your petition and you can move forward when your petition is approved without waiting.
And now, without further ado, here are the dates for both family-based and employment-based green cards according to the May visa bulletin for 2018.
The family-based category of green cards is dependent on which family member can sponsor you. This category is divided into four preference levels and five chargeability areas (countries). These are China, India, Mexico, the Philippines, and all other countries (we'll call this the general category).
The dates for the general category, China, and India have all not seen any movement and remain at April 8, 2011.
The date for Mexico has moved forward five weeks from September 8, 1996, to November 15, 1996.
The date for the Philippines has moved forward three weeks from January 1, 2006, to January 22, 2006.
The dates for the general category, China, India, and the Philippines have all moved forward one month from May 1, 2016, to June 1, 2016.
The date for Mexico has moved forward three weeks from April 1, 2016, to April 22, 2016.
The dates for the general category, China, and India have all moved forward five weeks from April 8, 2011, to May 15, 2011.
The date for Mexico has moved forward one month from November 1, 1996, to December 1, 1996.
The date for the Philippines has moved forward six weeks from November 1, 2006, to December 15, 2006.
The dates for the general category, China, and India have all moved forward three weeks from January 8, 2006, to February 1, 2006.
The date for Mexico has moved forward seven weeks from July 8, 1995, to September 1, 1995.
The date for the Philippines has moved forward one week from March 22, 1995, to April 1, 1995.
The dates for the general category and China have moved forward two weeks from September 15, 2004, to October 1, 2004.
The date for India has moved forward two weeks from February 15, 2004, to March 1, 2004.
The date for Mexico has moved forward one month from December 8, 1998, to January 8, 1998.
The date for the Philippines has moved forward six weeks from December 15, 1994, to February 1, 1995.
The green cards that are based on employment require you to work in the U.S. either through an employer or on your own. This newest visa bulletin has officially added a new chargeability area to the six that previously existed for employment green cards. There are now a total of seven chargeability areas and five preference levels. The areas include China, India, Mexico, the Philippines, Central America (which is El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala), Vietnam, and the general category.
The dates for the general category, Central America, Mexico, the Philippines, and Vietnam are all current.
The dates for China and India have not moved and remain at January 1, 2012.
The date for China has moved forward one month from August 1, 2014, to September 1, 2014.
The date for India has not seen any movement and remains at December 22, 2008.
The dates for the general category, Central America, Mexico, and Vietnam are all current.
The date for China has not seen any movement and remains at June 1, 2015.
The date for India has moved forward three months from February 1, 2008, to May 1, 2008.
The date for the Philippines has not seen any movement and remains at January 1, 2017.
The date for China in the "other workers" slot has moved forward one month from April 1, 2007, to May 1, 2007.
The dates for the general category, China, India, the Philippines, and Vietnam are all current.
The date for Central America has not seen any movement and remains at December 15, 2015.
The date for Mexico has moved forward two months and two weeks from August 8, 2016, to October 22, 2016.
The dates for the general category, Central America, India, Mexico, and the Philippines are all current.
The date for China has not seen any movement and remains at July 22, 2014.
The date for Vietnam is set at July 22, 2014. Because Vietnam was previously a part of the general category and the general category was current in April, the date has officially retrogressed.
Additionally, the Special Immigrant category (which has only 50 available visas) may become unavailable in the coming months, according to the bulletin.
Remember that retrogression is due to having too many applicants from one country petition for the same green card. Unfortunately, outside of "porting" your status (essentially filing a petition for a green card of a higher preference level), there is no way to shorten the amount of time you will have to wait.
There are many benefits of being in-the-know when it comes to your immigration situation. The landscape is constantly changing, so you can save time, effort, and money by staying on top of the latest info like the May visa bulletin. One way to do this is to subscribe to the Department of State's newsletter by emailing [email protected] with the message "Subscribe Visa Bulletin".
Regardless of which green card you choose, the process can be long, tricky, and filled with opportunities to delay or sabotage your immigration efforts. The best way to protect the investment that you have made into your green card is to hire an immigration attorney to handle everything from the tedious tasks to larger legal battles if necessary.
Here at SGM Law Group, we employ a client-first method that allows us to use our decades of green card experience to help you with whatever your case may require. From filing your petition and gathering evidence to handling Requests for Evidence or even rejections and denials, our team of attorneys is here to help.

As a follow-up/follow-on to my previous post Hypocritical Condition, there was an interesting article in today's Washington Post about blogger Mike Rogers. A gay activist with his own Hit List against hypocrites, the Post calls Rogers "The Most Feared Man on the Hill."
"For three years now, he's been a feared one-man machine, "outing," he says, nearly three dozen senior political and congressional staffers, White House aides and, most damagingly, Congress members on his blog...In Rogers's mind, if you're against gay rights in your public life and you live a secret homosexual life, all bets are off."
I've never been a fan of activist groups and publications outing celebrities. Sure, putting a famous face on homosexuality helps to bring tolerance from the general public. But one's private life should be--well, private. My personal stance (which is NOT wide!) is that it's frankly none of my business who you choose to sleep with--unless, of course, you're sleeping with me. But Rogers isn't outing celebrities--he's outing hypocrites. Or as he says, "When...private lives are in direct conflict with the public policy that these officials espouse, I think it's fair game that their private lives be brought into this." | {

Unidentified male sought in connection with an alleged robbery in Mason.
MASON, W.Va. — One of two suspects, wanted in connection with an alleged armed robbery in Mason on Sunday, has been apprehended by the Putnam County Sheriff's Department, according to Mason Police Chief Colton McKinney.
Roger Akers, II, of Hurricane, W.Va. was arrested in Putnam County and is wanted on warrants issued by the Mason County Magistrate Court. He is being accused of robbing TNT 1, a gaming parlor, on Midway Street in Mason.
McKinney said at approximately 7:40 p.m. Sunday, Akers reportedly entered TNT and demanded money from the clerk. After the clerk refused, Akers allegedly lifted his shirt, revealing a handgun. He then reportedly tore the register from the wall.
The police chief said officers were told the register contained around $5,000. The register was found destroyed Monday morning.
McKinney said late Monday afternoon that two Mason patrolmen were on their way to Putnam County to question Akers regarding the incident.
A second unidentified man is still being sought in connection with the robbery, who allegedly stood by the door as the incident took place, and drove the getaway car. He is also believed to be from the Hurricane area, and McKinney said he is considered armed and dangerous.
Assisting the Mason police in the investigation are the West Virginia State Police, Mason County Sheriff's Department, Putnam County Sheriff's Department, Hurricane Police Department, and Winfield Police Department.

although all three are linked. I've also worked on topics including coding theory, hypergraphs, matroids, enumeration, and combinatorial matrix theory.
Along with some student research assistants, I have developed www.distanceregular.org, an online catalogue of distance-regular graphs, with graphs available to be downloaded for use in computations.
A lot of my time in recent years has been devoted to the relationship between base sizes of permutation groups and the metric dimension of graphs. A survey article on this topic, with Peter Cameron, was published in the Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society in 2011. In particular, I've investigated the metric dimension of numerous families of distance-regular graphs.
In combinatorial design theory, my recent work has focused on packing and covering versions of so-called "generalized t-designs", which should keep me busy for a while.
Details of my publications are available here, or (if you have a subscription) MathSciNet. I also have a Google Scholar profile. Recent preprints are available on the arXiv.
My research is funded by an NSERC Discovery Grant (2016–21), as well as a university start-up grant, and the university's "Seed, Bridge & Multidisciplinary Fund".

Britney Spears: I've Never Met Taylor Swift
2003 and 2008 mean nothing to Brit Brit.
By Peggy Truong
In a new interview with the Kyle & Jackie O show in Australia over the weekend, Britney Spears was tasked with choosing between Taylor Swift and Katy Perry. The question was simple — who would Britney rather sit next to on a 24-hour flight? "I don't know. I don't know, that's hard," Britney said on the radio show. "They're both so cool … I've briefly met Katy Perry at the Smurfs movie premiere. Maybe because I've met Katy Perry I would say Taylor Swift, because I've never met her before."
The Internet was quick to acknowledge Britney's Mariah Carey moment, pointing out the two times Britney and Taylor posed for photographs. Their first encounter happened in 2003, when In the Zone was your favorite album and the VMAs that year included a kiss between Britney and Madonna. Taylor was still in high school.
Britney and Taylor's second encounter was at the 2008 VMAs. Look how perfect their curls were.
Naturally, fans have been having a ball with this mix-up.

This section examines how the PWP/TREP program of improvements would address potential project impacts to water quality and coastal wetlands, and how the PWP/TREP provides a unique opportunity to improve water quality along the transportation corridors and to enhance significant wetland resources in the North Coast Corridor (NCC). Taken together, the PWP/TREP improvements would:
Implement a comprehensive, corridor-wide program to restore water quality and wetland habitat along the 30-mile NCC coastline.
Maximize the treatment of surface water runoff through existing surfaces, and new impermeable surfaces, incorporating stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) within the project footprint and reducing the pollutant burden in stormwater runoff along I-5.
2031-2040 Phase Propose bridge/culvert replacement and bridge lengthening projects over specific lagoons and other coastal water bodies to better convey floodwaters and allow for improved tidal flushing, to reduce sedimentation and improve the flow of water, and thereby improve water quality and the ecological value of the lagoons and riparian systems.
Implement a comprehensive, corridor-wide Resource Enhancement and Mitigation Program (REMP), which includes a variety of regionally significant wetland restoration and enhancement opportunities, including acquiring and preserving properties that contribute to protecting and enhancing lagoon system and watershed function and values, proactively restoring and enhancing degraded properties that achieve no net loss of wetland habitat, promoting opportunities for regionally significant lagoon restoration or enhancement projects, and providing endowments for long-term maintenance of the lagoon system through inlet dredging and maintenance.
5.4.1 Coastal Waters and Wetlands in the Corridor
The NCC is located in a region that contains some of the most significant remaining coastal lagoons in Southern California. The corridor's lagoons, coastal water bodies, and smaller watershed drainages support a variety of marine resources including open water, wetland, and riparian habitats. Figure 5.4-1A illustrates the hydrologic units of the corridor, Figure 5.4-1B preliminarily identifies the percentage of pavement to be treated by sub-watershed within the I-5 corridor, and Figure 5.4-2A through Figure 5.4-2G provides an overview of existing and potential open water, wetland, and riparian habitat areas in the I-5 corridor based on the setting evaluated and documented for purposes of preparing the PWP/TREP. As the corridor's natural resources are subject to change throughout implementation of the PWP/TREP, the marine resource mapping included in Figure 5.4-2A through Figure 5.4-2G provide the baseline from which to evaluate potential project impacts to known and potential wetland resources, and to determine when the provisions of this section apply to future project implementation pursuant to the Notice of Impending Development (NOID) procedures enumerated in Chapter 6A.
5.4.1.1 Water Quality
The NCC area parallels the coastline throughout northern San Diego County and lies entirely within the coastal region of the San Diego Basin. As discussed in Chapter 2, the corridor improvement areas cross the following 5 of 11 hydrologic units (HUs) within the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Basin: The Santa Margarita, San Luis Rey River, Carlsbad, San Dieguito, and the Peñasquitos HUs. These HUs contain the corridor's coastal lagoons, the San Luis Rey River, and many other coastal streams, drainages, and wetland resources. Each HU has been developed to varying degrees and all are expected to experience between 7% and 14% more development by 2015.
While the corridor and entire San Diego coastal region have experienced rapid development over the last several decades, the corridor contains significant hydrologic features with many beneficial uses for San Diego residents, visitors, and natural resources. Surface hydrology within the corridor is influenced primarily by the coastal lagoons, creeks, and San Luis Rey River. The corridor contains six significant coastal lagoon systems including Los Peñasquitos, San Dieguito, San Elijo, Batiquitos, Agua Hedionda, and Buena Vista. In addition, the corridor includes the following significant coastal and inland waterways: Carroll Canyon Creek/Soledad Canyon Creek, Los Peñasquitos Creek, Carmel Creek, San Dieguito River, Cottonwood Creek/Moonlight Creek, Encinas Creek, Loma Alta Creek/Slough, Buena Vista Creek, the San Luis Rey River and Oceanside Harbor.
Figure 5.4-2A through Figure 5.4-2G illustrates the significant surface hydrologic features within the I-5 corridor including the lagoons, rivers, streams/creeks, and other drainages.
The California Coastal Basin Aquifer is the primary aquifer identified in the corridor. Shallow groundwater likely occurs adjacent to, or in the vicinity of, streams, rivers, and lagoons within the corridor and in the coastal bluff areas of Del Mar. Groundwater is also likely to saturate the surface and formational materials near alluvial or estuarine environments, such as the mouths of the major drainage areas and lagoons.
Beneficial Uses
The San Diego RWQCB Basin Plan (Basin Plan) defines "Beneficial Uses" for water bodies as those necessary for the survival or well-being of people, plants, and wildlife. The text below, as well as Table 5.4-1 and Table 5.4-2, provide information relative to beneficial uses for the corridor's lagoons and coastal and inland surface waters.
5.4.1.2 Corridor Lagoons
Corridor lagoons provide significant benefits in their respective watersheds for flood relief (by allowing high flows to slow and disperse into the larger water bodies) and for water quality (where sediment loads, nutrients, and toxins from stormwater are discharged and absorbed by vegetation within the lagoon prior to entering the ocean). As discussed in Chapter 2 (Section 2.2.6.2), the lagoons also contain sensitive habitat areas for threatened and endangered species and migratory birds, as well as for fish and many different wildlife species. In addition, were associated with open space and adjacent habitat preservation areas, the corridor lagoons provide habitat linkages and wildlife corridors in a coastal area that has experienced rapid population growth and urbanization over the last several decades. Most of the corridor lagoons provide public recreation amenities with trail systems, interpretative areas, wildlife observation opportunities, and, in some cases, expansive beach areas where the lagoons meet the ocean.
Beneficial uses for the lagoons in the corridor generally include contact and non-contact recreation; preservation of biological habitats of special significance; estuarine habitat (potential estuarine habitat for Buena Vista Lagoon); marine habitat; wildlife habitat; rare, threatened and endangered species; fish migration; spawning, reproduction, and/or early development (with the exception of Buena Vista Lagoon, which is the only lagoon with the beneficial use of warm freshwater habitat). Beneficial uses for Los Peñasquitos and Agua Hedionda Lagoon include shellfish harvesting, with additional beneficial uses in Agua Hedionda for industrial service supply, commercial and sport fishing, and aquaculture. Loma Alta Slough is designated for contact and non-contact recreation, estuarine, marine and wildlife habitats, and rare, threatened, and endangered species. The mouth of San Luis Rey River is also designated for contact and non-contact recreation, marine habitat, wildlife habitat, and rare, threatened and endangered species, as well as for fish migration.

Restoration Efforts
Ongoing lagoon resource planning, restoration, and management has been implemented at varying levels for the corridor's lagoons and will continue to be essential in ensuring that the many floods, water quality, habitat, and recreational benefits of these significant watershed features are maintained and enhanced. Los Peñasquitos Lagoon, Batiquitos Lagoon, and Agua Hedionda Lagoon have been the subjects of various types of periodic restoration efforts, including inlet maintenance to allow for tidal circulation, bridge lengthening and repairs to improve circulation, maintenance dredging, water quality monitoring, and wetland and upland habitat restoration.
Buena Vista Lagoon, which contains part of the Buena Vista Lagoon Ecological Reserve maintained by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), is in "Phase II" of a focused restoration effort. Phase II prepares the preliminary engineering and environmental documents that depict various potential restoration alternatives for the lagoon.
The San Elijo Lagoon is part of the San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve, where a focused restoration effort is underway. The San Elijo Lagoon Restoration Project is evaluating alternatives to improve the water quality of the lagoon through infrastructure improvements to promote tidal circulation. Improvements may include lagoon inlet enhancements through the lengthening of the bridge on South Coast Highway 101, and the lengthening of rail and highway facilities that cross the lagoon. Based on the analysis conducted for the San Elijo Lagoon Restoration Project and the I-5 project, the bridges will be lengthened to optimize the circulation of water, thereby creating wetland habitat within the existing bridge footprint and facilitating the restoration of marsh habitat through improved hydraulic flows.
The San Dieguito Lagoon has benefited from the completion of a major restoration effort implemented by Southern California Edison. The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) is working on expanding the extent of the restored coastal wetlands.
Irrespective of current restoration efforts, all of the corridor lagoons require ongoing management to address the effects of increased year-round freshwater input, accelerated sedimentation and water contamination, reduced tidal mixing, the introduction of exotic species, revegetation of disturbed areas, and impacts on habitats and wildlife from adjacent development and recreational use.
Chapter 2 (Section 2.2.6.2) provides a description of each of the corridor lagoons and details the lagoons' ownership, general size, and associated watershed features, habitats, and past and pending planning and restoration efforts.

Wetland and riparian habitat areas are also found in a number of other coastal and inland waterways within the corridor's watersheds including Carroll Canyon Creek (Soledad Canyon Creek), Los Peñasquitos Creek, San Dieguito River, Carmel Creek, Cottonwood Creek/Moonlight Creek, Encinas Creek, Loma Alta Creek/Slough, Buena Vista Creek, and the San Luis Rey River. A number of wetland and riparian habitat types are associated with the various water bodies identified in the corridor including southern riparian, southern riparian forest, southern cottonwood-willow, riparian forest, and San Diego mesa hardpan vernal pool. Southern willow scrub, mulefat scrub, freshwater marsh, southern willow scrub/freshwater marsh, southern arroyo willow woodland, coastal brackish marsh, southern coastal salt marsh, salt marsh transition, Arundo scrub, disturbed wetland, mudflat, salt flat, and open water.
Carroll Canyon Creek (Soledad Canyon Creek), Los Peñasquitos Creek, and Carmel Creek all drain the Los Peñasquitos watershed and ultimately discharge into the Pacific Ocean via Los Peñasquitos Lagoon. Carroll Canyon Creek originates southeast of the Miramar Reservoir, in the City of San Diego neighborhood of Scripps Miramar Ranch and feeds into Soledad Canyon Creek. Soledad Canyon Creek has been channelized through Sorrento Valley in a concrete-lined channel for approximately 0.5 miles and converges with Los Peñasquitos Creek, which flows in a natural channel until it reaches Los Peñasquitos Lagoon. Los Peñasquitos Creek drains Los Peñasquitos Canyon, which stretches east of Poway. The San Dieguito River drains the San Dieguito Hydrologic Unit. From the dam forming Lake Hodges, the San Dieguito River flows through the long and narrow San Dieguito River Park past Del Mar and broadens into a tidal waterway and lagoon as it crosses under I-5 to empty into the Pacific Ocean at Solana Beach. Carmel Creek, fed by tributaries to the east, is located in San Diego just south of Carmel Valley Road and drains through a concrete box culvert under Sorrento Valley Road. These creeks include wetland and riparian areas, and convey flood flows and provide water quality benefits.
Cottonwood Creek and Moonlight Creek flow through an urbanized section of Encinitas. Cottonwood Creek is a small creek that flows intermittently above- and belowground through Encinitas between San Elijo and Batiquitos Lagoons. Cottonwood Creek is primarily channelized or underground near I-5; however, several drainages feed into Cottonwood Creek from the east to west side of I-5 where the outlet to the Pacific Ocean at Moonlight Beach has recently been restored. Restoration efforts have also included the creation of Cottonwood Creek Park west of I-5 where the creek channel has been restored to an aboveground channel between I-5 and the ocean. Cottonwood Creek does not provide substantial flood relief, water quality improvement, or wildlife habitat until reaching the newly restored channels in Cottonwood Creek Park. Moonlight Creek is a small tributary in Cottonwood Creek Park that runs parallel to and west of I-5. Moonlight Creek primarily conveys urban runoff from both sides of I-5 into Cottonwood Creek and supports some freshwater marsh habitat and southern willow scrub, providing habitat to riparian bird species and limited water quality and flood relief benefits.
Encinas Creek is part of the Encinas watershed, which is 3,434 acres in size within the larger Carlsbad Hydrologic Unit. The watershed extends 2.37 miles inland from the coast and the high elevation within the drainage is approximately 430 feet above mean sea level. The watershed begins as small drainage in an industrial area and is immediately channelized. The creek continues through industrial and office parks associated with Palomar Airport until it reaches the lower valley area. It then makes its way to the Pacific Ocean after crossing I-5 and Pacific Highway.
Loma Alta Creek is a highly disturbed creek beginning in Vista and running through primarily urban areas in Oceanside. The creek flows parallel to Oceanside Boulevard through both natural and concrete-lined channels. After running under I-5 through a pipe, Loma Alta Creek runs into Loma Alta Slough, located north of Buccaneer Beach Park, before ultimately flowing into the Pacific Ocean. The Slough is considered a coastal estuarine wetland. Loma Alta Watershed is the northernmost watershed in the Carlsbad Hydrologic Unit Loma Alta Creek provides some water quality filtration and conveys storm flows and urban runoff; however, these benefits are minimized by the highly disturbed nature of the Creek.

Buena Vista Creek is part of the Carlsbad watershed that drains to the Pacific Ocean via Buena Vista Lagoon. The creek experiences seasonal flows typical of most coastal drainages in San Diego County. However, artesian springs provide for some surface flow even during the summer dry season. During wet winter weather or flood events, surface flow increases significantly into Buena Vista Lagoon. Natural surface flows are augmented by urban and agricultural runoff. Most of the recreational uses are focused along the lower portions of Buena Vista Creek and around Buena Vista Lagoon, which is heavily used as a bird-watching location. Sedimentation could pose a long-term threat to the freshwater marsh and open water mosaic that exist.
The San Luis Rey River is a significant resource and riparian feature within the corridor and is one of the few perennial rivers in San Diego County. The San Luis Rey River reach located within the corridor is a combination of open water habitat, freshwater marsh, Arundo scrub, and riparian habitat that supports a variety of common and sensitive wildlife species. San Luis Rey River supports listed species, such as the tidewater goby, steelhead, and southern willow catcher, amongst others. San Luis Rey River also plays an important role in conveying storm flows, potential flood relief, and improving water quality from filtering from freshwater marsh species.
All of the inland waterways provide the following beneficial uses (or have the potential to provide beneficial uses): agricultural supply, industrial services supply, contact, and non-contact recreation, warm water habitat, and wildlife habitat. Exceptions are Encinas and Loma Alta Creeks, which are not designated for agricultural supply or industrial services supply. Additional beneficial uses include cold freshwater habitat for Soledad Canyon, Carroll Canyon Creek, and San Dieguito River. Beneficial use for rare threatened and endangered species are also assigned to Carroll Canyon Creek, Buena Vista Creek, and San Luis Rey River. Los Peñasquitos Creek is designated for the preservation of biological habitats of special significance.
Environmental documentation and analysis prepared for the PWP/TREP rail and highway corridor improvements indicate that significant marine resources occur in the corridor, including coastal lagoons, rivers, streams, other wetland areas, and the Pacific Ocean, which could be affected by the implementation of the proposed improvements. In addition, environmental documentation demonstrates that many of the corridor's significant marine resources, have experienced and will continue to experience varying degrees of ongoing degradation due to adjacent development stressors and the existing transportation facilities included in the PWP/TREP.
5.4.2.1 Existing Water Quality Deficiencies
Chapter 3A identifies resource deficiencies in the corridor related to water quality and discusses these deficiencies in the context of runoff from corridor urbanization, development and transportation facilities, current transportation facility treatment levels of runoff, the quality of water entering the corridor's water bodies and the ocean, and impaired waterbodies. The corridor's coastal water bodies have experienced decades of degradation from direct and indirect impacts of development, including the transportation facilities that cross these resources, which has negatively affected water quality that is essential for protecting coastal resources and maintaining water-oriented recreational use.
Corridor urbanization and development have cumulatively affected water quality as impermeable surfaces have increased and the vegetative cover has decreased. This has resulted in significant increases in stormwater pollutant loads and runoff velocity and volume, contributing to excessive erosion and sedimentation within corridor watersheds. Hydrology and water quality are also potentially affected in the coastal bluff areas of Del Mar along the rail facility where ongoing shoreline erosion problems caused by wave action require ongoing maintenance activities along or within the shoreline to ensure the facility is protected from failure.
The corridor transportation infrastructure generally conveys pollutants to surface waters, which are most often generated from roadways, parking lots, and disturbed landscapes. However, highway facilities are only a small percentage of the land area (2%) in the NCC, and I-5 also accounts for less than 2% of the tributary area of the five NCC watersheds. Table 5.4-4 lists the hydrologic areas and subareas that encompass the proposed NCC and compares those areas to the existing NCC I-5 highway right-of-way. As indicated, the maximum tributary area and highway contribution to the hydrologic areas/subareas is less than 2%.

Potential pollutants from the roadway and slopes include sediment, nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) from native and ornamental vegetation, metals (copper, lead, and zinc), fertilizers, and pesticides. Other than runoff from parking structures associated with the rail facilities, runoff from rail improvements are relatively minor because of limited impermeable surface area associated with rail lines.
The corridor contains a number of impaired water bodies that do not meet water quality standards (as defined by the Clean Water Act ), and therefore cannot support the beneficial uses for which the water body has been designated. Chapter 3A identifies impaired water bodies in the corridor (303(d) list), which include Los Peñasquitos Creek, Los Peñasquitos Lagoon, Soledad Canyon Creek, the Pacific Ocean at San Dieguito Lagoon, San Elijo Lagoon, Buena Vista Lagoon, Loma Alta Slough, the Pacific Ocean at the San Luis Rey River mouth, the San Luis Rey River, and Oceanside Harbor. Inland waterways that are tributaries of, or discharge into, these 303(d) impaired waters may also be considered part of the 303(d) listed water bodies.
A number of impaired water bodies were given special status under the Clean Water Act for which the state is required to identify waters that will not achieve water quality standards after the application of effluent limits. For these impaired water bodies, states are required to develop plans for water quality improvement. The plans consider each water body and pollutant for which water quality is considered impaired and include load-based (as opposed to concentration-based) limits called total maximum daily loads (TMDL), which is the maximum amount of pollution (both point and non-point sources) that a water body can assimilate without violating state water-quality standards. For example, a TMDL for Los Peñasquitos Lagoon was adopted by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board on June 13, 2012. Caltrans is listed as a responsible party on the TMDL, and North County Transit District is also a responsible party because it is enrolled in the Greater San Diego Phase II Municipal Separate Storm Sewer (MS4) Permit issued by the State Water Resources Control Board on February 5, 2013. The responsible parties for this TMDL are required to meet specific targets for the restoration of salt marsh in the Los Peñasquitos Lagoon.
Chapter 3A identifies pollutants discharging with a load or a concentration that commonly exceed allowable standards and that are considered treatable by Caltrans' approved treatment BMPs, which are referred to as Targeted Design Constituents (TDCs). See Table II.2 within the I-5 NCC Water Quality Technical Memorandum (Appendix E of the PWP/TREP) for details on which 303(d) listed waterbodies will be potentially affected by the implementation of transportation improvements. TDCs in the corridor include sediment, metals (total and dissolved zinc, lead, and copper), nitrogen, phosphorus, and general metals. Caltrans developed and implemented a BMP Retrofit Pilot Program to combat these TDCs that was finalized in January 2004 for several locations along the I-5 corridor. The pilot program for runoff in the corridor highway facility included detention devices at I-5 and SR 56, I-5 and Manchester Avenue, a wet basin at I-5 and La Costa Avenue, media filters at the La Costa Park & Ride and the SR-78 and I-5 Park & Ride, and a biofiltration system at I-5 and Palomar Airport Road. These facilities were able to treat about 7% (approximately 47 acres) of the total existing paved area in the NCC. The 7% treatment accounts for the identified pilot projects, as well as treatment BMPs completed as part of previous construction projects within the corridor such as I-5/805 and I-5/Lomas Santa Fe. Consistent with federal and state law, as well as with the terms of its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit, Caltrans also implemented maintenance BMPs that included preventative measures to ensure that ongoing maintenance activities be conducted in a manner that reduces the number of pollutants discharged to surface waters via Caltrans stormwater drainage systems. Maintenance BMPs were implemented in accordance with the Storm Water Quality Handbook-Maintenance Staff Guide, which provides detailed instructions on applying approved stormwater maintenance BMPs to maintain facility operations and highway activities in a manner that provides maximum protection of water quality.
Table 5.4-5 provides a tabular reference to the Caltrans Storm Water Quality Handbook Project Planning and Design Guide's (PPDG) Appendix E treatment BMP checklists T-1 to T-10 along with Figure 2-3 - Decision Process for Selecting Treatment BMPs at Specific Sites. For the selection of conceptual BMPs, the design team has prepared and preliminarily quantified treatment BMP water quality flows, tributary areas and percent treatment as shown in Section 5.4.2.4.

Existing Lagoon Deficiencies
Chapter 3A also identifies resource deficiencies in the context of the corridor's lagoons and associated sensitive habitat areas. Corridor lagoons have historically experienced adverse impacts to water quality and to the varied habitat areas, plant, and wildlife species supported within and adjacent to the lagoons. The hydrology of the watersheds in the corridor has been directly altered by adjacent development and the existing highway and rail facilities, which have displaced watershed features including lagoon, river, stream, and drainage areas. In addition, realignment and/or channelization of inland waterways conveying stormwater through the watersheds to coastal water bodies have also resulted in significant modification to the hydrology of the lagoons within the corridor. The physical alterations of watershed features have resulted in a cumulative loss of wetland and riparian habitat areas that, in turn, has decreased the valuable biological function of these areas to naturally dissipate and filter sediment and pollutants in stormwater runoff prior to discharge to the lagoons and eventually the Pacific Ocean. In addition to direct displacement of habitat area resulting from adjacent development and construction of the corridor transportation facilities, watershed alterations such as the diversion of freshwater from inland waterways, excess sedimentation and siltation, and, in some cases, reconfiguration of the lagoons' inlet at the ocean, have all contributed to degradation of lagoon resources. Development encroachment has also reduced the amount and quality of transitional and upland habitat areas that typically provide buffers between adjacent land uses and the habitats and species supported by the lagoons.
The health of the lagoons in the corridor is based, in large part, on the extent to which waters are free-flowing or stagnant in each system. This health directly affects the quality of habitat provided for lagoon-dependent wildlife, as well as how well the lagoons function for passive recreational purposes (reflected in the health of vegetation, lack of odor, etc.). The I-5 NCC Project Final EIR/EIS details the results of a number of studies undertaken by SANDAG/Caltrans to identify existing and proposed rail and highway bridge dimensions in context with known environmental concerns for each lagoon system, with analysis of the potential effects of the proposed bridge modifications on tidal circulation, flood flows and associated scour, sediment transport, sea-level rise relative to freeboard, wildlife connectivity, channel protection features, and associated impacts on wildlife habitats and federal or state jurisdictional waters/wetlands. The analysis of each lagoon also addresses constraints presented by the Pacific Coast Highway 101 transportation corridor. The analyses confirm that existing rail and highway bridges at San Elijo, Batiquitos, and Buena Vista Lagoons were identified as potentially posing more substantial constrictions (relative to tidal circulation, flood flow, etc.), with a potential for optimization, and additional technical studies were undertaken to identify how the replacement bridges could be designed to optimize tidal and fluvial flows in these systems. In addition, there are plans for large-scale restoration efforts at San Elijo and Buena Vista Lagoons where existing bridges could restrict the range of restoration alternatives under consideration for these lagoons.
PWP/TREP concerns for protection and enhancement of marine resources relate to proposed project impacts that may occur from construction, operation, and maintenance of the rail and highway facilities, and community enhancement improvements, which include new and enhanced recreation facilities. The PWP/TREP improvement areas are located within and/or drain directly to a number of coastal water bodies and proposed improvements that could individually or cumulatively result in short-term construction or long-term operational water quality and marine habitat impacts. Transportation improvements and facilities often generate sources of pollutants that are carried by runoff to adjacent water bodies, thus affecting water quality and sensitive marine resources.
The proposed PWP/TREP improvements would result in changes to the project area land surface through grading and increased impervious surfaces, which could increase peak runoff rates and volume and pollutant loads from pre-development levels. PWP/TREP improvements would also require grading and landform modification that could disrupt and/or interfere with surface water flow and natural attenuation of runoff by drainage features, resulting in increased peak flood discharge, erosion, and sedimentation to receiving water bodies. In addition, potential erosion and sedimentation impacts are of concern where existing rail improvements along Del Mar Bluffs require construction activities for the maintenance of existing shoreline protection devices. Implementation of the PWP/TREP improvements could also cause impacts on water quality due to increased runoff and erosion from grading and vegetation removal. Other construction-related impacts may include accidental discharge and spill of construction debris and pollutants from construction equipment, demolition activities with bridge improvement and replacement projects, and construction activities along the railway on Del Mar Bluffs.
However, without the proposed PWP/TREP infrastructure improvements, the corridor's water quality, and lagoon, wetland, and riparian habitat areas will continue to degrade. The proposed transportation infrastructure improvements, when combined with the PWP/TREP Resource Enhancement and Mitigation Program (detailed in Chapter 6B), could significantly restore and enhance marine resources and thereby improve many of the existing deficiencies of the corridor's water quality, lagoon, wetland, and riparian habitat areas. Existing LOSSAN rail and I-5 highway transportation facilities contribute to degraded water quality and marine habitat due to previous transportation construction practices that displaced marine habitats, and which also limit opportunities for retrofitting facilities to improve water quality. Absent the proposed PWP/TREP facility improvements, opportunities to modify existing transportation infrastructure to improve existing deficiencies of water quality, lagoon, wetland, and riparian habitat resources would remain extremely limited and unlikely. As such, PWP/TREP improvements are planned and designed to remedy impacts to water quality and marine resources caused by previous construction and/or ongoing operations of the existing transportation facilities to the extent feasible. Implementing the PWP/TREP would thereby facilitate enhancement and restoration of the biological productivity and quality of marine resources including coastal waters, lagoons, and streams.
Proposed rail facility track improvements would not result in a significant expansion of impermeable surfaces and thus would not contribute substantially to increased stormwater runoff. The majority of rail improvements would be contained within the existing right-of-way or in deep tunnels and, thus, would minimize the need for excessive grading and landform modification that could otherwise disrupt and/or interfere with surface water flow or result in increased peak flood discharge, erosion, and sedimentation to receiving water bodies. Rail improvements include parking area expansion at, adjacent to, or in close proximity to stations and a new platform at Del Mar that would involve increased impervious surfaces and could contribute to increased runoff, erosion, and pollutant loads to receiving water bodies; however, with the exception of the proposed platform at Del Mar, all stations now have or are developing, vertical parking structures in already developed areas. It is expected that proposed parking resources would likely be met through additional parking levels in the existing structures; therefore, the impervious surface at ground level would not increase substantially.
Potential hydrology and water quality impacts related to the construction of rail improvements could result from ground-disturbing activities for double-tracking, at shafts, portals, grade separations, and staging areas. Sources of stormwater pollution during construction could include equipment and vehicle leaks of oil, grease, fuel, etc., construction materials, and waste material. Though not specifically addressed in the Los Angeles-San Diego-San Luis Obispo (LOSSAN) Final Program EIR/EIS, but based on data presented in the I-5 NCC Project Final EIR/EIS (October 2013), Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) could occur within the rail corridor in San Dieguito, Batiquitos, Agua Hedionda, and San Elijo Lagoons. These possible EFHs could be impacted by any degradation in water quality and/or hydrology. Eelgrass beds grow sub-tidally and are important habitats for aquatic species and have specific regulations concerning impacts and mitigation. Subtidal portions of the lagoons within the study area were surveyed in 2006 for current eelgrass and possible invasive algae (i.e. Caulerpa taxifolia) distributions for purposes of identifying potential impacts. Eelgrass was observed in Batiquitos and Agua Hedionda Lagoons. Eelgrass habitat could be impacted by degraded water quality and hydrology.
As part of the conceptual design at the program level, the lead agencies have proposed, at a minimum, maintaining either the same in-water footprint or reducing the number of in-water columns compared to the existing rail corridor bridges; however, proposed rail improvements would likely result in unavoidable fill impacts to wetlands. Preliminary assessment indicates that approximately 7.45 acres of total wetland habitat within the rail corridor could be directly impacted by proposed rail improvements in the first three phases of the PWP/TREP Phasing Plan. Within Oceanside and Carlsbad, there would be approximately 0.63 acres of potential wetland impact due to proposed rail projects. Within Encinitas and Solana Beach, approximately 5.65 acres of wetlands are mapped within the proposed rail alignment options, while approximately 1.17 acres are mapped within the Del Mar and San Diego area.
An additional 11.8-12.6 acres of wetland impacts could occur with the implementation of the two doubletrack rail projects in Del Mar and San Diego included in the vision (final) project phase, depending on the future tunnel alternative selected. Either tunnel option in the Del Mar area would involve deep tunneling that would avoid disturbance along the tunnel routes to most wetland resources, except potentially at portal areas, like through the CDFW Preserve in San Dieguito Lagoon. The Camino Del Mar tunnel option would involve double-tracking across the Los Peñasquitos and San Dieguito lagoons on existing or new rail bridges, which could be done without net increase of the in-water footprint of the rail infrastructure within the lagoons. Construction along the lagoon perimeters would have direct and indirect impacts on wetland areas during construction. There may be the opportunity to replace the existing bridge across Los Peñasquitos with a causeway structure that would increase the tidal flow and remove the embankment from the lagoons. This would require extensive in-water work, causing higher impacts during construction, but would result in a long-term beneficial impact on the lagoon, which would be determined in project-level analyses. The I-5 tunnel option would avoid crossing Los Peñasquitos Lagoon, but the design concept would include a new, elevated structure along the south edge of San Dieguito Lagoon, following the southern edge of San Dieguito Racetrack View Drive, which may result in potentially new, temporary and permanent impacts on wetland resources. The I-5 tunnel option would allow for the removal of the existing Los Peñasquitos rail bridge structures in the future, which would have temporary impacts on the lagoon from in-water work to remove the existing structure but ultimately create better tidal circulation in the lagoon.
Table 5.4-6 provides a breakdown of potential rail corridor wetland impacts versus available mitigation credits according to the project phases (the full PWP/TREP Phasing Plan is presented in Chapter 6A).
Temporary Impacts
In all cases, temporary construction impacts from project activities in and around the lagoons could affect habitats associated with the lagoons. Potential impacts include in-water work for new infrastructure, possible removal of existing structures, turbidity, and increased sedimentation during construction; however, as discussed below, it is also anticipated that proposed bridge replacement projects over the lagoons and other coastal water bodies could have a beneficial effect on hydrology and water quality by constructing new bridges that better convey floodwaters, allow for improved tidal flushing, and thereby improve water quality and marine resources.
Operational and construction activities for the proposed highway improvements could affect water quality and marine habitats. The I-5 NCC Project Final EIR/EIS compares and analyzes existing and proposed additional pavement areas between the four proposed to Build Alternatives, and discusses in detail the effects of the Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) on corridor water quality and marine habitats. A number of existing treatment BMPs are present within the project limits, including biofiltration swales, extended detention facilities, wet basins, and media filters; with these facilities providing treatment for runoff from associated paved areas within the I-5 corridor. The percentage of runoff that is treated by existing treatment BMPs is approximately 7%. The LPA could modify local drainages and alter some of the existing treatment tributary areas. The existing and proposed amounts of impervious areas within the project limits were quantified based on average directional dimensions for general purpose lanes, auxiliary lanes, median, on- and off-ramps, and local streets within Caltrans right-of-way. The existing impervious area within the I-5 corridor is approximately 670 acres, of which 7% is treated through existing BMPs. The LPA would result in approximately 225 acres of new impervious area (for a combined impervious area of 895 acres) with treatment proposed for approximately 287 acres. The proposed preliminary BMP siting results in 128% of the net new equivalent impervious area treated or 32% of the total impervious area treated by both existing and proposed treatment BMPs corridor-wide. These estimates reflect a general baseline condition for the entire corridor; as the project-specific design progresses, the percentage of treatment is anticipated to increase as new or enhanced treatment BMP opportunities are identified for the feasibility of incorporation through the project development process. For example, existing treatment BMPs would be assessed to determine those to remain in place with or without modification, relocation, retrofitting, or upsizing. Likewise, new treatment BMP opportunities will be assessed for incorporation based on final drainage and grading, design, and potential impacts.
Additionally, enhanced infiltration of stormwater by conveyance to open areas that filter and detail runoff through existing soils, landscaping, vegetation and wetlands, otherwise known as enhanced infiltration through the natural environment, would be maximized throughout the corridor. Table 5.4-7 includes a breakdown of existing and proposed stormwater treatment by watershed area using Caltrans-approved BMPs for NPDES permit compliance. Enhanced infiltration opportunities that simply convey runoff to vegetation and wetlands are not classified as Caltrans-approved BMPs for NPDES permit compliance and therefore are not reflected in the baseline treatment percentages presented in Table 5.4-7.
However, in areas such as Agua Hedionda Lagoon where quantifiable treatment by Caltrans-approved treatment BMPs may not be feasible due to ROW impacts, ecological sensitivity or topographic constraints, enhanced infiltration through the natural environmental will be maximized within that sub-watershed to benefit water quality and shall be documented in the Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) or an expanded-format Storm Water Data Report (SWDR). See Table 5.4-7(A-C) for proposed stormwater treatment for the San Elijo HOV project that utilizes, in addition to Caltrans approved BMPs, conveyance of runoff to soils, landscaping, vegetation, and wetlands to utilize enhanced infiltration through the natural environment. The expanded-format of the SWDR would capture and document where opportunities to use enhanced infiltration through the natural environment would be available, as well as showing where BMP capacities can be maximized, similar to that shown in Table 5.4-8(A-C).
Specifically, Table 5.4-8A, Table 5.4-8B, and Table 5.4-8C provide examples of the project-specific treatment BMP analysis that will be completed as project design progresses and site-specific hydraulic data becomes available (i.e., at Preliminary Design, at 30% Design, and greater). This ensures that the percentage of treatment feasible by watershed, as currently indicated in Table 5.4-7, would be to the maximum extent practicable and contribute to minimizing adverse impacts to water quality throughout the corridor. As shown in the following tables, siting of new and/or additional treatment BMPs that incorporate Low Impact Development (LID) principles, is based on contributing areas; however, the location of these BMPs undergo a screening analysis, including a cost-benefit analysis, that considers new or increased visual, right-of-way, environmentally sensitive habitat areas (ESHA), and/or wetland impacts. The SWDR will document the appropriate treatment BMPs selected after conducting a similar analysis as demonstrated within Table 5.4-8A, Table 5.4-8B, and Table 5.4-8C.
The increased impervious area introduced by projects consolidated under the PWP/TREP is significant in the context of the existing highway facility; however, the maximum Caltrans contributing tributary area is still small relative to the size of any of the hydrologic areas/subareas in the corridor (see Table 5.4-7).
In addition, pollutants from construction activities could be generated from construction materials as well as construction activities. Pollutants generated from construction materials could include vehicle fluids, asphaltic emulsions from paving activities, joint and curing compounds, concrete curing compounds, solvents and thinners, paint, sandblasting material, landscaping materials, treated lumber, PCC rubble, and general litter. Pollutants from construction activities could include clearing and grubbing, grading operations, soil import operations, sandblasting, landscaping, and utility excavation.

Phasing presented in this table is for general mitigation accounting purposes only. The reader is referred to Chapter 6A for the RTP-approved project phasing plan and maps.
Impacts presented within this column have been (conservatively) calculated and rounded to the nearest acre. Specifically, net acreage amounts currently depicted for bridge replacement projects at San Elijo Lagoon, Batiquitos Lagoon and Buena Vista Lagoon reflect both creation of new wetland from removal of road bed fill, as well as any new road bed fill required for widening and/or related construction. For example, proposed I-5 bridge construction across San Elijo Lagoon with a 261-foot channel bottom width during year 2015 would result in creation of 1.1 ac of new wetland; however, the project would require placement of 1.01 ac of additional fill within State wetlands, for a net result of creation of +0.09 ac, which was rounded to 0 ac impact.
"Vision" Phase projects are programmatic in nature, and currently scheduled for implementation in years 2041 to 2050. At a future date and prior to their implementation, project-specific information would be made available to further refine the impact estimates presented herein.

PWP/TREP improvements over the corridor's lagoons would result in unavoidable impacts to wetlands because I-5 is an existing north/south transportation corridor that transects the east-west lagoon drainages. Wetland habitat impacts associated with the LPA include impacts at the six lagoons, as well as the San Luis Rey River, Loma Alta Creek, Encinas Creek, Cottonwood Creek, and numerous small lined and unlined drainage ditches that run parallel to I-5. All drainage ditches, Arundo scrub, and salt marsh transition habitats have been included in the wetland habitat impact analysis for proposed highway improvements. The majority of the impacts to wetlands are associated with facility widening at the lagoons. The I-5 NCC Project Final EIR/EIS (Section 3.17) analyzes and provides a comparison of potential coastal wetland impacts for the four proposed to Build Alternatives and discusses in greater detail the specific effects of the LPA on corridor wetland habitats. Caltrans has determined that approximately 17.6 acres of coastal wetland habitat within the highway corridor could be directly impacted by proposed highway improvements. Temporary impacts to coastal wetlands are also identified in the associated Biological Assessment and could range up to approximately 13.5 acres, and depending on their severity and duration these temporary impacts could be considered permanent. Table 5.4-6 provides a breakdown of potential highway corridor permanent wetland impacts according to the project phases but does not account for the temporary impacts.
The first phase of construction for the I-5 improvements would occur between 2010 and 2020 is broken into three different subprojects. Phase 1A would begin in 2014 and would include the grading for the ultimate widening of I-5 from just north of the Lomas Santa Fe interchange to the Union Street overcrossing in Encinitas. This phase would include replacement and lengthening of the new bridge over San Elijo Lagoon. The creation of wetland from lengthening of the lagoon bridge would result in a net creation of 0.21 acre of state jurisdictional wetland; however, there are some impacts to Cottonwood and Moonlight Creeks between Santa Fe and Union Street as a result of the widening of the freeway placement of bioswales and impacts from trails resulting in a net impact of 0.53 acre of wetland in Phase 1A. The disturbed drainage of Cottonwood Creek, southeast of I-5 and Encinitas Boulevard, would have impacts from the new trails and the bioswales northwest of Encinitas Boulevard will result in a few sliver impacts to wetlands. Other projects in the first phase include extending one high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane in the median in each direction from the Union Overcrossing to SR78 and completion of the ultimate widening of I-5 between La Jolla Village Drive and the 5/805 flyover. The braided ramps between Roselle and Genesee are not part of Phase 1C. The median widening would have minimal impacts on the outside of I-5 and would not impact the lagoon wetlands. Phase 2 is broken into four projects. The replacement of the Batiquitos Bridge is identified separately, as it may be funded in the first phase to reduce staging impacts for bridge construction. Ultimate widening from the I-5 / I-805 merges to SR-56, from SR-56 to Lomas Santa Fe Drive, and from Union Street to Palomar Airport Road. Phase 3 would have the remainder of the widening projects to complete the corridor.
As described above, smaller wetland and riparian areas associated with the corridor's various streams and drainages would also be affected. Drainages feeding into Cottonwood Creek, Encinas Creek, and those parallel to I-5, north of Genesee Avenue, would have portions placed into culverts. Although these smaller drainages do not present the high-quality habitat that the lagoons and San Luis Rey River provide, the highway improvements would result in placing several of these small wetlands and riparian areas into culverts, which could eliminate potential for wildlife habitat, flood control, or water quality functions. Rock slope protection in the form of energy dissipaters at new or replacement culverts would be installed only where culvert outlet velocities are determined to be erosive during the design phase for the facilities and would be included in the relative drainage plans.
Additional indirect impacts on water quality and marine habitats could occur as a result of improved public use opportunities within and along sensitive marine resources. If not properly located, constructed and maintained, public use could result in erosion, litter accumulation, or other pollutant releases within and along marine resources that are located in public access and recreation facility areas.
The proposed PWP/TREP provides an opportunity to implement a comprehensive, corridor-wide program to restore water quality and wetland habitat along the 30-mile NCC coastline that is recognized for a number of unique and significant marine and environmentally sensitive resource areas (ESHA). The coastal watersheds, lagoons, and upland areas in the corridor provide a range of diverse habitats and ecosystems that support a variety of plant and wildlife species. Due to the location of the proposed NCC improvements, the sensitive habitats traversed by the planned corridor improvements and the sensitive species living along the corridors, all impacts to coastal resources cannot be avoided. Implementation of a corridor-wide water quality enhancement program would help to restore, where feasible, watershed features previously displaced or altered by the existing transportation facilities, and would include transportation facility improvements incorporating current BMPs to reduce contaminant loads in stormwater, which would serve to restore and facilitate the long-term maintenance of water quality within the corridor's watersheds. The NCC Resource Enhancement and Mitigation Program (REMP), discussed further in the following section, has been developed to identify compensatory mitigation measures to address these unavoidable impacts, and to implement resource enhancement opportunities that exceed the benefits of standard compensatory mitigation programs.
In light of the inherent limitations to retrofit the existing facilities to address adverse impacts associated with polluted stormwater runoff, PWP/TREP improvements involve the construction of new facilities and significant facility modifications that provides an opportunity to address this concern. The proposed PWP/TREP improvements would implement treatment BMPs for both the new and existing impervious pavement as each portion of the corridor project is designed to meet all the requirements of the Project Planning and Design Guide including implementing LID, Design Pollution Prevention, construction and approved treatment BMPs. The project will be in compliance with the 2013 Caltrans Statewide Storm Water Permit issued by the State Water Resources Control Board. To further support water quality treatment within the corridor, Caltrans would implement a pilot program to assess the use of porous pavement at the park-and-ride at the San Elijo Multi-Use Facility (near Manchester Avenue) and enhanced vista point within the San Elijo Lagoon watershed. The functionality of the porous pavement at these locations would be assessed to help determine the feasibility of its use at other highway owned facilities in the corridor. The program of improvements would include analyzing each individual hydrologic area from a water quality perspective in relation to the impaired receiving water bodies. This is being done as SANDAG/Caltrans is an active member of several lagoon stakeholder groups throughout the corridor monitoring and eventually implementing measures to address the TMDL impairments identified by the San Diego RWQCB. Combined with these efforts, the PWP/TREP would provide for a more comprehensive approach to analyze the hydrology of each individual hydrological area for BMP implementation thus improving the water quality of the corridor.
Proposed treatment BMPs would include the use of biofiltration swales, which are vegetated channels, typically configured as trapezoidal or v-shaped channels that receive and convey stormwater flows while meeting water quality criteria and other flow criteria. Pollutants are removed by filtration through the vegetation, sedimentation, adsorption to soil particles, and infiltration through the soil. Strips and swales are effective at trapping litter, Total Suspended Solids (soil particles), and particulate metals. In most cases, flow attenuation is also provided, thus biofiltration swales and strips can also be considered a low-impact development technique. Biofiltration strips and swales would be considered wherever site conditions and climate allow vegetation to be established and where flow velocities will not cause scour.
Proposed improvements include the replacement of a number of bridge structures over waterbodies, which would have a beneficial effect on hydrology and water quality (see also Section 5.8 discussion of drainage and flooding). Implementation of improvements that modify existing bridge structures across lagoons, streams, and drainages would allow for improved tidal flushing and water conveyance in inland waterways thereby improving water quality and marine habitats. Efforts to minimize fill in corridor lagoons examined using retaining walls; however, the liquefied soils at the lagoons would require deep footings of over 82 feet and would be prohibitively expensive. As such, SANDAG/Caltrans evaluated potential restoration opportunities within each lagoon focused on 1) conventional habitat establishment and restoration through earthmoving activities; and 2) hydrodynamic restoration opportunities to improve the tidal inlets, increase the tidal prism, and reduce tidal muting through modifications to infrastructure features (e.g., bridges and channels) in the lagoons. SANDAG/Caltrans, in conjunction with a number of resource agencies, have identified opportunities to build longer bridges at San Elijo, Batiquitos and Buena Vista Lagoons, which would result in removing some of the existing fill at the lagoons. These potential improvements would result in substantial benefits to water quality and marine habitats by increasing overall water circulation in the lagoon, possibly facilitating a more natural process of tidal flushing and slowing freshwater flows from inland waterways that convey sediment and pollutants during significant rainfall events. This could reduce the build-up of sedimentation and other pollutants within the lagoons, which substantially affects biological productivity and quality of coastal waters.
There may be the opportunity to replace the existing rail bridge across Los Peñasquitos with a partial causeway structure that would increase the tidal flow and remove the embankment from the lagoons, and the I-5 tunnel option could allow for the removal of the existing Los Peñasquitos rail bridge structures in the future. In addition, proposed rail options that would remove the existing rail corridor from coastal bluff areas in Del Mar would reduce long-term bluff erosion by eliminating active rail operations and the need for ongoing maintenance activities of the existing shoreline protection system along the bluffs. The feasibility and potential benefits and impacts of improvements would be determined in project-level analyses; however, as part of the conceptual design at the program level, the lead agencies have proposed, at a minimum, maintaining either the same in-water footprint or a smaller footprint than the existing rail corridor where improvements would cross coastal waterbodies.
5.4.3.1 PWP/TREP Lagoon, Wetland, and Riparian Enhancement Opportunities
The REMP employs a combination of measures to mitigate coastal resource impacts resulting from the implementation of the NCC transportation improvements and community enhancement projects. The combined mitigation program approach recognizes the constrained, primarily built-out condition of the NCC which leaves few opportunities for land acquisition typically necessary to implement traditional, ratio-based habitat mitigation efforts. Even fewer opportunities exist in the NCC for large-scale land acquisitions that could allow traditional ratio-based mitigation efforts to be focused in distinct areas with the goal of establishing large tracts of contiguous and diverse habitat areas within the corridor. However, the NCC is home to six major lagoon systems, which represent some of southern California's most significant natural resource areas. These lagoon systems and upper watersheds provide large, contiguous habitat areas that support sensitive habitat for a variety of plant and wildlife species, and that provide water quality, flood control, groundwater recharge, and recreation benefits. The NCC's lagoon systems and their habitats are biologically unique and cannot be replicated elsewhere. As such, opportunities to protect the NCC's lagoon systems from potential future degradation and to enhance and expand habitat within these systems requires comprehensive solutions with mitigation efforts focused less on ratio-based mitigation and more on ecosystem-wide enhancements. Given the unique ecological value of the NCC's lagoons, opportunities to improve the ecological function of the systems exceed the benefits of pursuing only ratio-based mitigation efforts on the relatively small, fragmented and isolated land areas remaining in the NCC for such mitigation efforts.
The REMP, detailed in Chapter 6B, provides a unique corridor-wide opportunity to assess proposed transportation infrastructure and community enhancement improvements with varying constraints and opportunities. Such opportunities include the facilitation of large-scale lagoon restoration efforts that include improved tidal circulation in the San Elijo, Batiquitos and Buena Vista Lagoon systems, preservation, and/or restoration via the land purchase of upland habitat areas, and restoration of riparian habitat areas within inland waterways. Restoring tidal circulation in lagoon systems and enhancing riparian and upland habitat areas would significantly improve water quality and the ecological value of the lagoons, riparian systems, and adjacent upland areas to better support Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas (ESHAs), special-status species and wildlife. Table 5.4-6 identifies the potential rail and highway wetland impacts discussed in this section by the project phase in conjunction with the corridor-wide wetland habitat mitigation and enhancement opportunities provided by the REMP, which is further detailed in Chapter 6B.
The REMP includes options for allocating funding from SANDAG's Environmental Mitigation Program for a variety of regionally significant mitigation, restoration, and enhancement opportunities. Mitigation parcel purchases have been based on their potential to protect and enhance lagoon watershed function and services, and meet no net loss of wetlands through establishment and restoration. Other mitigation parcels have been purchased for the purpose of preserving regionally significant resources. For regionally significant lagoon restoration and enhancement opportunities, endowments are planned to fund long-term resource maintenance needs and the development of a Scientific Advisory Committee is planned to advise the large-scale restoration projects. Design of bridge improvements, which inherently enhance lagoon system function and services, are also included in the REMP; however, funding for these enhancements would be provided through capital funds. The REMP approach to advancing habitat establishment, restoration, and preservation mitigation projects ahead of PWP/TREP impacts, and designing bridge improvements to avoid and minimize project impacts aims to create greater benefits to coastal resources on a corridor-wide level than if the habitat mitigation were solely ratio-based and project-specific.
Early establishment and restoration of habitat areas will serve to reduce typically required mitigation ratios for project impacts by eliminating impacts associated with temporal loss of wetland habitat functions and values. In addition, early acquisition and management of sites containing high-value habitat for long-term preservation, and early phasing of transportation facility infrastructure that is specifically designed to avoid and minimize impacts, enhance lagoon system function and values, and facilitating large-scale lagoon restoration will further serve to mitigate projects impacts associated with both temporal loss of habitat values and temporary construction-related impacts. REMP implementation will increase the extent, value and success of natural resource protection, restoration, and enhancement in the NCC. The REMP achieves this goal through developing and implementing a regional plan for the advanced acquisition, establishment, restoration, enhancement and preservation of the NCC's natural resources, infrastructure improvements designed to avoid and minimize impacts and enhance resources, and long-term resource management endowments.
In addition, large-scale restoration plans for San Elijo Lagoon and Buena Vista Lagoon are being developed by various stakeholder groups and the resource agencies. SANDAG and Caltrans have been working with the cities, resource agencies, and stakeholders to help move these restoration projects forward by assisting in planning and funding required technical and environmental studies.
Furthermore, SANDAG/Caltrans funded numerous studies to analyze optimized I-5 bridge designs at the corridor lagoons intended to minimize tidal muting east of I-5. These enhanced bridge designs at San Elijo, Batiquitos and Buena Vista Lagoons will result in possible establishment and/or enhancement of wetland habitat and water quality benefits within the lagoons.
It is recognized that new opportunities for various types of resource improvements may become available in the corridor after the adoption of the PWP/TREP, due to factors such as additional funding availability, completed habitat restoration plans, or land acquisition options. In addition, some mitigation opportunities which would promote large-scale ecological improvements to resources may be considered more critical for the region, while others that would contribute to enhancing a smaller area within the corridor may be considered less critical for achieving regional goals. Widespread improvements to natural resources in the NCC require a unique, comprehensive approach to resource enhancement with input from multiple regulatory agencies and stakeholders. These factors make it necessary to maintain flexibility when considering the most appropriate mitigation opportunity.
The REMP is the framework used to describe the available resource enhancement opportunities on a corridor-wide level based on these evolving factors. The REMP framework provides for supplementing the mitigation opportunities package when new opportunities arise, which could be authorized pursuant to future project-specific NOIDs for PWP projects, coastal development permits, or federal consistency review, as applicable (see also REMP Implementation Framework section in Chapter 6B).
Accounting of REMP project implementation, credit establishment, and release, maintenance and monitoring will be tracked and reported pursuant to NOID submittals, future federal consistency review submittals, or coastal development permit submittals for all PWP/TREP projects to ensure the overall program implementation is consistent with approved impacts and meets required mitigation and resource benefits identified in the PWP/TREP Phasing Plan. Each mitigation site will have its own funding and mitigation and monitoring plan with remedial measures in the event the site is not attaining its goals. If a site develops a fatal flaw that cannot be corrected onsite, SANDAG/Caltrans will identify and implement mitigation at another location. In most cases, problems on a mitigation site can be corrected onsite through additional grading, planting, weeding, or soil amendment. An advanced credit release program will be established for the NCC and will be drafted to mirror the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Advance Permittee Responsible Compensatory Mitigation standards where appropriate. This bank will follow the REMP's phasing and establish restoration milestones and credits. In addition, funding could be shifted between projects if a project proposed now is not carried forward for some reason. In addition, the PWP/TREP Implementation Framework ensures that all REMP projects are reviewed and monitored as part of the development review process for all other projects included in the PWP/TREP, regardless of the specific Coastal Commission approval process required for each REMP project. Wetland mitigation opportunities and other water quality improvements proposed within each waterbody potentially affected by the proposed improvements are described below. Several additional mitigation opportunities are included within the REMP for offsetting impacts to upland habitat; see Chapter 6B for details regarding those opportunities.
Caltrans and SANDAG would implement the following policies to ensure that proposed improvements are designed, implemented, and maintained to provide for maximum protection of marine resources.
Policy 5.4.1: NCC transportation facility and community enhancement projects shall be sited and designed so that marine resources are maintained, enhanced, and, where feasible, restored. Special protection shall be given to areas and species of special biological or economic significance.
Policy 5.4.2: Uses of the marine environment shall be carried out in a manner that will sustain the biological productivity of coastal waters and healthy populations of all species of marine organisms adequate for long-term commercial, recreational, scientific, and educational purposes.
Policy 5.4.3: Coastal water quality shall be restored by minimizing wastewater discharges, controlling runoff, preventing depletion of groundwater supplies and substantial interference with surface water flow, encouraging wastewater reclamation, maintaining natural vegetation buffer areas that protect riparian habitats, and minimizing alteration of natural watercourses.
The following design and development strategies provide guidance for designing and implementing specific PWP/TREP rail projects, and Caltrans/SANDAG shall utilize the following design and development strategies for all projects subject to NOID procedures, consistent with the marine resources protection policies of PWP/TREP Policies 5.4.1, 5.4.2, and 5.4.3, amended LCPs, and the Coastal Act.
The development shall be sited and designed to protect and, where feasible, restore natural hydrologic features such as groundwater recharge areas, natural stream corridors, floodplains, and wetlands. Key areas near lagoons shall be designed with minimum lane and shoulder widths to avoid impacts to natural hydrologic components of the watershed.
The development shall be designed and managed to maintain or enhance the on-site infiltration of runoff where appropriate.
Runoff management shall be incorporated early in site design planning integrating existing site characteristics that affect runoff (such as topography, drainage, vegetation, soil conditions, and infiltration properties) with strategies that minimize post-project runoff, control pollutant sources, and, where necessary, remove pollutants. Project-level analysis for potential water quality and marine habitat impacts of improvements shall be conducted and subject to review during subsequent project-specific federal consistency review, NOID, or coastal development permit review, as specified in Chapter 6A, to assess and identify all potential permanent or temporary impacts to water quality and marine habitats and appropriate mitigation measures to ensure project consistency with Coastal Act policies 30230, 30231 and 30233. The project-level analysis shall include the following technical studies and shall be documented in the WQMP or expanded-format SWDR:
Field surveys of potential surface water impacts to further analyze potential impacts on water quality and to seek required permits from the appropriate agencies.
Identification of potentially substantial alteration in water-flow and drainage patterns, including increased stormwater runoff, increased groundwater discharge or reduction of groundwater recharge. Project-specific studies shall determine acceptable designs and construction techniques to minimize adverse impacts of increased sedimentation that would occur during in-water work in the lagoons and elsewhere. Potential minimization measures and timing windows shall be developed in consultation with resource agencies and lagoon planning.
Analysis of how the different alignment and design options would contribute to the total additional impervious surface and the subsequent potential additional impacts on surface runoff. This analysis shall also identify potential mitigation measures, including onsite retention facilities.
Analysis and provision, to the extent feasible, of future requirements for load reductions of project generated contaminants for coastal waters within the improvement area.
Delineation of waters and wetlands to determine the extent of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, California Coastal Commission and CDFW jurisdiction, and consultation conducted with these agencies regarding appropriate mitigation.
Analysis of future sea-level rise scenarios, and any design options for new bridge structures to reduce the potential for flooding.
Permit requirements as part of the project-level review would include Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) and NPDES permits, other applicable jurisdictional requirements, and ultimately, the provisions and protocols set by the PWP/TREP. Under the requirements of the NPDES California Department of Transportation Statewide Storm Water Permit and the Construction General Permit, an SWPPP would be developed during construction and implemented to reduce pollutants in stormwater discharges and the potential for erosion and sedimentation. The SWPPP would include BMPs to minimize potential short-term increases in sediment transport caused by construction, including erosion control requirements, stormwater management, and channel dewatering for all stream and lake/lagoon crossings. BMPs may include the following:
Practices to minimize the contact of construction materials, equipment, and maintenance supplies with stormwater.
Practices to reduce erosion of exposed soil including soil stabilization, watering for dust control, perimeter silt fences, placement of rice straw bales, and sediment basins. All SWPPP shall utilize BMPs that incorporate the best available science and technology in order to ensure that runoff is treated to the maximum extent feasible.
Applicable NPDES permit requirements, supplemented by the provisions and protocols set by the PWP/TREP, shall be followed, and maximized-capacity BMPs and enhanced infiltration through the natural environment shall be implemented. These may include measures to provide permeable surfaces where feasible and to retain and treat runoff onsite using catch basins and treatment (filtering) wetlands, especially in areas around existing stations where feasible and at new stations where parking is provided.
Practices to maintain water quality including filtration, detention, and retention systems, constructed wetland systems, biofiltration / bio-retention systems, grass buffer strips, ponding areas, organic mulch layers, planting soil beds, sand beds, or vegetated systems (biofilters) such as vegetated swales and grass strips designed to convey and treat either shallow flow (swales) or sheet flow (filter strips) runoff.
Spill prevention and emergency response plan shall be implemented to handle potential fuel or other spills for all construction.
Impacts on the lagoon, riparian or other isolated wetland habitats shall be fully mitigated pursuant to the REMP detailed in Chapter 6B as it relates to no net loss of habitat, habitat preservation, and comprehensive lagoon restoration program mitigation.

All vegetated stormwater basins, vegetated filter strips, vegetated swales, and other natural drainage features that may be installed per the PWP/TREP may exhibit wetland or other habitat characteristics over time, however, their primary function is for water quality filtration and treatment, flow control, and infiltration. As such, standard maintenance on a regular basis is anticipated to be necessary to maintain their intended function and is therefore allowed pursuant to this PWP/TREP. These devices are not to be treated as wetlands including for purposes of Design/Development Strategy 11, and Implementation Measure 5.4.7.
A Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) or expanded-format Storm Water Data Report (SWDR) that addresses post-construction BMPs as well as enhanced infiltration through the natural environment opportunities shall be prepared to protect and restore coastal water quality.
The WQMP or enhanced-format SWDR shall include, but not be limited to, final drainage plans showing the location and design of bioswales or other NPDES approved treatment BMPs along with supporting calculations/evidence that demonstrate the facilities are designed to treat, infiltrate or filter stormwater from each runoff event, up to and including the 85th percentile, 24-hour runoff event for volume-based BMPs, and/or the 85th percentile, 1-hour runoff event, with a factor of safety of 2X, for flow-based BMPs.
The WQMP or expanded-format SWDR shall address existing project surfaces wherever it is feasible to do so. Tables 5.4-8 A/B record the results of how existing highway surfaces, in addition to newly created highway surfaces, shall be used as a model for projects authorized by the PWP/TREP to address water quality. The San Elijo HOV Project example will serve to illustrate the process used to identify the extent of the cumulative area of the impervious highway surface that can be addressed.
Low Impact Development (LID) strategies shall be used preferentially, which emphasize an integrated system of decentralized, small-scale control measures to minimize alteration of the site's natural hydrologic conditions through infiltration, evapotranspiration, filtration, detention, and retention of runoff close to its source. Onsite retention LID BMPs shall be sized and designed to ensure onsite retention, without a runoff, of the volume of runoff produced from a 24-hour, 85th percentile storm event.
The WQMP or expanded-format SWDR shall prioritize the treatment of the newly created impervious areas. Where it is impractical to hydraulically separate runoff from the existing impervious area, the applicant shall provide treatment for newly created impervious areas and as much of the hydraulically inseparable flow as feasible, based on site conditions and constraints and consistent with the NPDES Permit supplemented by the provisions and protocols set by the PWP/TREP. If it is not possible to separate the flows from newly created impervious areas from the existing impervious areas, the treatment BMPs shall be designed to treat as much of the hydraulically inseparable flow as feasible and shall bypass or divert any excess around the BMP to prevent overloading the BMP or impairing its performance.
Existing impervious surfaces shall not be treated in lieu of newly created impervious surfaces unless it is infeasible to treat the newly added surface. Where it is infeasible or impractical to provide onsite treatment of stormwater runoff from the highway, the WQMP or expanded-format SWDR shall document why it is impractical or infeasible to treat these areas.
Landscaping plans shall include only species native to southern California such that the proposed planted areas will be compatible with surrounding natural and manmade areas. No plant species listed as problematic and/or invasive by the California Native Plant Society (http://www.CNPS.org/), the California Invasive Plant Council (http://www.cal-ipc.org/), or as may be identified from time to time by the State of California shall be employed or allowed to naturalize or persist on the site. No plant species listed as a "noxious weed" by the State of California or the U.S. Federal Government shall be utilized within the property.
An evaluation of the development area shall be conducted for all improvements proposed in areas where wetlands may occur and shall be submitted with the project-specific NOID, federal consistency review or coastal development submittal. The evaluation shall include any changed site conditions that could affect wetland values protected by the PWP/TREP. A technical wetland delineation shall be completed in the proposed development area (i.e., the proposed development footprint and a surrounding 100-foot buffer area) pursuant to the wetland definition in Section 13577(b) of the Commission's Regulations (Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations). Should wetland areas be identified within 100 feet of the development area during this process that is not already considered in the PWP/TREP, all wetland resource protection measures included in this PWP/TREP shall be applied to the newly identified wetland area. For any newly identified wetland area, an appropriate buffer/setback shall be established, based upon site-specific conditions in accordance with Implementation Measure 5.4.7.
Where applicable, submittals for specific project implementation shall include an evaluation of impacts and benefits of removal of existing earthen fill from lagoon crossing structures, and of design options for new structures that reduce the amount of fill required in lagoons. Opportunities to improve coastal hydrology/hydraulics in tidal lagoons utilizing specific construction methods or facility designs shall be consistent with the lagoon optimization studies (see Appendix K).
The development shall be sited, designed, and managed to avoid adverse impacts from stormwater or dry weather runoff to ESHAs.
The installation of pervious pavements at parking facilities/areas to hydraulically disconnect runoff between impervious pavements shall be implemented where feasible.
Buffers/setbacks for wetlands delineated at the time of PWP/TREP certification shall be maintained as identified in Figure 5.4-2 unless reduced wetland buffers/setbacks are authorized pursuant to the NOID, Coastal Development Permit and/or Public Works Plan Amendment procedures contained in Chapter 6A. For any new wetlands identified and delineated pursuant to Design/Development Strategy 11, development shall be sited and designed to avoid and minimize wetland impacts, where possible, and appropriate buffers/setbacks provided based on a site-specific biological evaluation confirming the buffers/setbacks are adequate to avoid or minimize significant adverse impacts to wetland resources.
Debris from the replacement of old bridges or construction of new bridges shall be contained, such that debris is not released into lagoons, rivers or other water bodies.
The development shall treat runoff from proposed additional project surfaces, and shall maximize opportunities to retrofit existing project surfaces so that pollutants carried in runoff and the changes in runoff volume itself, including flow rate, duration, timing, and temperature, are minimized.
All improvements authorized by the PWP/TREP shall implement project-specific Standard and Heightened Design Treatment BMPs such as those included as an example in Table 5.4-8 A/B/C for the San Elijo HOV Project, and shall be documented in the WQMP or expanded-format SWDR. These project-specific standards shall use all available opportunities, including enhanced infiltration through the natural environment, retrofitting existing BMPs to address additional runoff, and providing maximized BMP capacity to fully protect and restore, where feasible, coastal water quality.
PWP/TREP projects shall be integrated with regional planning efforts including coordinating with co-permittees of the NPDES permit for discharges from the MS4 Draining the Watersheds within the San Diego Region. PWP/TREP projects shall be designed to not cause or contribute to exceedances of water quality standards identified in the San Diego Basin Plan, per the State Water Resources Control Board Order No. 2012-0011-DWQ or any permit re-issuance thereafter. At a minimum, projects located within the drainage areas of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) adopted prior to construction, including but not limited to, the Bacteria 1 TMDL (San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board Resolution No. R9-2010-0001) and Los Peñasquitos lagoon Sediment TMDL (San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board Resolution No. R9-2012-0033), shall be designed to comply with TMDL requirements.
PWP/TREP projects shall be integrated with regional planning efforts mandated by the County of San Diego Hydromodification Plan. In-channel flow mitigation contemplated by Caltrans under the Statewide Storm Water Permit Waste Discharge Requirements for the State of California Department of Transportation shall be coordinated with the regional co-permittees of the Hydromodification Plan to maximize the cumulative effect of the strategies utilized.
In order to protect and restore water quality, all improvements authorized by the PWP/TREP shall prioritize water quality protection and restoration strategies in the following order:
a. Site design planning (e.g., avoidance and minimization, ROW availability for water quality mitigation)
b. Integrated LID BMPs (e.g., direct runoff to pervious surfaces and vegetated areas, earthen based BMP design)
c. Urban-oriented treatment BMPs (e.g., media filters)
d. Maintenance BMPs (e.g., enhanced mechanical sweeping); and

5.4.4.1 PWP/TREP Wetland Fill and Allowable Uses
The existing location of the developed NCC rail and highway facilities requires that the PWP/TREP improvements occur in areas containing wetlands, and it is, therefore, infeasible to avoid all impacts to wetland areas during construction of the proposed improvements. Section 5.10 evaluates the PWP/TREP improvements under the Coastal Act conflict-resolution provision (Section 30007.5). As detailed in Section 5.10, the proposed PWP/TREP could be found consistent with the Coastal Act through the conflict-resolution provision of Coastal Act Section 30007.5, when it is demonstrated that there are no feasible less-damaging alternatives for project components that would result in unavoidable impacts to wetland, and that feasible mitigation measures have been included in the PWP/TREP to minimize significant adverse environmental impacts.
Section 5.10, Coastal Act Policy Conflict Resolution, includes a programmatic analysis of project alternatives analyzed to address mobility deficiencies and enhance multi-modal access throughout the corridor. Based on this analysis, the program of rail, highway and community improvements included in the PWP/TREP provides the least environmentally damaging, feasible project alternative to avoid or reduce impacts to coastal resources, while implementing Coastal Act policies that mandate protection of coastal resources by 1) minimizing energy consumption and vehicle miles traveled, and protecting air quality (Section 30253); 2) concentrating new development in or adjacent to areas able to accommodate growth (Section 30250); 3) providing and enhancing transit and non-automobile circulation, and assuring that the potential for public transit is provided for high intensity uses (Section 30252); and 4) protecting and enhancing public access to recreational resources in the Coastal Zone (Sections 30210, 30211, 30212, 30212.5, 30213, 30214, 30223, 30252, and 30254). The proposed PWP/TREP improvements consist primarily of improvements to existing transportation facilities located in previously developed and disturbed areas within existing rail and highway right-of-way. Improvements or changes to the existing rail and highway facilities are generally expansions or reconfigurations of existing facilities or, where new rail alignment tunnel options are being considered, would occur primarily below ground; therefore, the proposed PWP/TREP rail and highway improvements would involve limited expansion or encroachment into wetlands and other sensitive habitat areas that might otherwise occur if new transportation infrastructure were to be constructed as separate and distinct facilities from the existing rail and highway right-of-way to address mobility deficiencies and enhance multi-modal access throughout the corridor.
In addition to the programmatic analysis of project alternatives discussed above and included in Section 5.10, a detailed, design-level alternatives analysis for proposed PWP/TREP rail and highway improvements that affect wetlands was conducted consistent with the Coastal Act Policy Conflict Resolution process to identify the least environmentally damaging alternative. Lagoon optimization studies were conducted for San Elijo, Batiquitos and Buena Vista Lagoons to identify the optimal length of bridges and channel design configurations to provide for improved hydraulic lift and facilitation of large-scale lagoon restoration efforts. Additional technical analysis and detailed design avoidance and minimization features for all corridor waterbodies potentially affected by the I-5 Project LPA are discussed at length in the I-5 NCC Project Final EIR/EIS. As discussed therein, to minimize impacts to all sensitive habitats, the slopes of the freeway were designed at a steeper 2:1 grade versus the standard 4:1 grade. To further minimize impacts, retaining walls were also included in the project design on cut slopes, but could not be used on fill slopes. Through analysis of lagoon sediment data from geotechnical borings, it was determined that lagoon soil liquefaction would prevent the use of retaining walls to minimize the roadbed fill in the lagoon. Soil liquefaction requires that any structures taller than approximately 6 feet have support piles that are driven to bedrock, which is located at a depth of over 100 feet. All pilings for the bridge supports would be driven to this depth, but this would not be practical for retaining walls. Riprap is used to protect the existing abutments and would also be used to protect the abutments of the proposed bridges. Due to the depth of bridge pilings, riprap is not required to armor the channel bottom.
Potential impacts from auxiliary lanes would be minimized where possible, especially in the vicinity of the lagoons. Auxiliary lanes were only included in the project design were required to relieve traffic congestion and weaving issues between on- and off-ramps. For instance, potential impacts associated with a proposed auxiliary lane between La Costa Avenue and Poinsettia Avenue across Batiquitos Lagoon were avoided, based on the elimination of this potential auxiliary lane when traffic analysis determined that it would not be required.
To avoid impacts to wetlands from fill associated with the creation of 12-foot-wide bike/pedestrian paths, short retaining walls (6 feet or lower in height) would be used. Another impact minimization option being examined, particularly at Batiquitos Lagoon and Buena Vista Lagoon, would involve obtaining funds to replace these bridges in the first phase of construction (prior to construction of a proposed HOV lane in the median), instead of later in the construction process. This would reduce the overall bridge widths required for staging the bridge replacements, thus reducing wetland impacts by more than an acre at each lagoon. For Batiquitos Lagoon, Caltrans and SANDAG have agreed to advance the I-5 bridge crossing to the first phase; review of the feasibility of advancing the Buena Vista Lagoon I-5 bridge crossing remains underway. However, because auxiliary lanes in each direction are proposed at Agua Hedionda Lagoon, resulting in the need for a wider finished bridge, accelerated timing of bridge replacement would not minimize wetland impacts at this location.
Section 5.4.3 and the following consistency analysis sections for proposed rail and highway improvements demonstrate that feasible mitigation measures have been included in the PWP/TREP as project design features, policies, design/development strategies, and/or implementation measures to minimize significant adverse environmental impacts.
PWP/TREP design and development strategies for proposed NCC improvements would ensure that marine resources are maintained, enhanced, and where feasible, restored. Project-level analysis for potential water quality and marine habitat impacts of proposed improvements would be conducted and subject to review during subsequent project-specific environmental and federal consistency review, as applicable, to assess and identify all potential permanent or temporary impacts to water quality and marine habitats and any additional mitigation measures needed to ensure project consistency with Coastal Act policies 30230, 30231 and 30233. Project-level analysis would include field surveys of potential surface water quality impacts; identification of potentially substantial alteration of in-water flow and drainage patterns (i.e., increased stormwater runoff, increased groundwater discharge or reduction of groundwater recharge); determination of acceptable designs and construction techniques that would minimize adverse impacts of increased sedimentation; analysis of additional impervious surface and increase in surface runoff for different alignment options; impacts and benefits of removal of existing earthen fill from lagoon crossing structures; new structure design options to improve coastal hydrology and hydrodynamics in tidal lagoons; and an analysis of future sea-level rise scenarios. In addition, potential minimization and mitigation measures, as well as project construction schedules, would be developed in consultation with resource agencies and lagoon restoration efforts.
PWP/TREP policies and implementation measures require that improvements incorporate measures to minimize impacts to coastal waters. The measures include provisions for site design and planning and incorporation of BMPs designed to control the volume, velocity, and pollutant load of stormwater leaving the developed area. Critical to the successful function of post-construction BMPs in removing pollutants in stormwater to the maximum extent practicable is the application of appropriate design standards for sizing BMPs. The majority of runoff from proposed improvements would be generated from expanded highway facilities. A number of existing treatment BMPs are present within the project limits, including biofiltration swales and strips, extended detention facilities, wet basins, and media filters; with these facilities providing treatment for runoff from associated paved areas within the I-5 corridor. The percentage of runoff that is treated is approximately 7%. The LPA could modify drainage and alter some of the existing treatment tributary areas as it would result in approximately 214 acres of new paved area, with treatment to be provided for approximately 240 acres of the equivalent net new impervious area, representing a net total of 112% treatment throughout the corridor or 27% of the total future paved surfaces within the I-5 corridor.
The PWP/TREP improvement program would implement treatment BMPs for the I-5 corridor to the maximum extent practicable. The program would include analyzing the entirety of the corridor from a water quality perspective in relation to the impaired receiving water bodies in the NCC and provide for a more comprehensive approach to analyze the hydrology of the entire project area for purposes of improving water quality. Treatment BMPs would consist of permanent measures to improve stormwater quality during the operation of the facility after completing construction. Approved treatment BMPs could include biofiltration systems, infiltration devices, detention devices, dry weather flow diversions, gross solid removal devices, media filters, and wet basins.
Construction BMPs would be implemented for all facility improvements that would reduce pollutants in stormwater discharges and eliminate non-stormwater discharges during the construction phase of the project. Under the requirements of the NPDES California Department of Transportation Statewide Storm Water Permit and the Construction General Permit, an SWPPP would be developed during construction and implemented to reduce pollutants in stormwater discharges and the potential for erosion and sedimentation. The SWPPP would include BMPs to minimize potential short-term increases in sediment transport caused by construction, including erosion control requirements and stormwater management for all stream and lagoon crossings. Soil disturbance during the construction phase will incorporate temporary BMPs in accordance with Construction General Permit and the NPDES permit to minimize erosion and sediment transport. Vegetation and other BMP techniques would be installed upon construction completion to maintain slope stability. Potential pollutants generated during construction phase activities, from stormwater and non-stormwater sources, would be addressed in the SWPPP as required by contract specifications.
Furthermore, the proposed policies and implementation measures require the implementation of treatment BMPs determined to be technically and fiscally feasible for all facility improvements that would prevent or minimize long-term potential impacts from facilities or activities. Where treatment BMPs could not be incorporated due to infeasibility, vegetation would be maximized and every effort would be made to ensure the successful establishment of landscaping and erosion control throughout the project limits.
In addition, design pollution prevention and LID BMPs would be implemented for all facility improvements to prevent downstream erosion, which would stabilize disturbed soil areas and maximize vegetated surfaces. Potential design pollution prevention measures include the preservation of existing vegetation, concentrated flow conveyance systems, and slope/surface protection systems. Maintenance BMP preventative measures would be implemented for all facility improvements to ensure that maintenance activities are conducted in a manner that reduces the number of pollutants discharged to surface waters via existing stormwater drainage systems. The policies and implementation measures also require maintenance BMPs to be implemented for the life of the facility in accordance with the Storm Water Quality Handbook-Maintenance Staff Guide, which includes litter removal, toxics control, street sweeping, and other approved measures.
PWP/TREP policies also require submittal of construction phasing and staging plans with future project-specific NOIDs or other project-specific submittals (federal consistency review or coastal development permit) to ensure proposed construction activities do not significantly affect downstream site stability due to changes in the rate and volume of runoff, and sediment load potentially caused by modification of existing drainage patterns, or other potential hydraulic changes from waterbody encroachments, crossings or realignment. Construction and phasing plans for improvements would preserve the existing vegetation outside the work areas, stabilize slopes with vegetative cover, and keep the total paved area to a minimum. As such, the PWP/TREP includes a number of implementation measures utilizing a combination of erosion and sediment control BMPs to address both stormwater and non-stormwater discharges during construction activities. Additionally, construction methodologies that minimize impacts to adjacent wetland resources would be assessed and submitted with any future project-specific NOID submittal. The policies, design/development strategies, and implementation measures also require that options for coordinating rail and highway infrastructure construction plans in lagoon areas would be analyzed for potential benefits to lagoon systems and feasibility for rail and highway project implementation, pursuant to SB 468.
Furthermore, as discussed in Section 5.4.5 and per the proposed policies, design and development strategies, and implementation measures, impacts to lagoon, riparian, or other isolated wetland habitats would be fully mitigated pursuant to the REMP detailed in Chapter 6B as it relates to no net loss of habitat through establishment, habitat enhancement, restoration/preservation, and comprehensive lagoon restoration and enhancement. Table 5.4-9 summarizes the proposed PWP/TREP improvements within each lagoon to ensure water quality and wetlands are enhanced beyond standard mitigation.
Implementation of a corridor-wide REMP could restore watershed features once lost by construction of the transportation facilities with upgraded bridges and reduced development footprint in coastal water bodies and could restore channelized and armored portions of inland waterways and the shoreline at Del Mar Bluffs, where determined feasible. Proposed PWP/TREP improvements would potentially restore water quality and tidal circulation of lagoons, improve conveyance of streamflow and sediment transport from inland areas, facilitate passage of fish and other aquatic species, and restore natural shoreline processes thereby enhancing biological productivity of marine resources and water quality.
Benefits to water quality from the proposed rail improvements would also result from the reduction in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) on area highways that may occur with increased and improved rail service, as fewer roadway pollutants would be present in the surface runoff from the roadways. Reduction in VMT with the implementation of the rail improvements, when combined with the proposed highway improvements that would specifically target improving water quality on I-5, would reduce and better treat stormwater runoff from area highways, resulting in a beneficial impact to water quality throughout the corridor.
Based on available project and environmental data and the policies and implementation measures included herein, the proposed PWP/TREP highway improvements would protect and enhance water quality and marine habitats, and therefore the PWP/TREP is consistent with Sections 30230, 30231 and 30236 of the Coastal Act.
As demonstrated in the section and discussed in more detail in Section 5.10, there is no feasible, less environmentally damaging alternative that would address the mobility and coastal policy concerns of the corridor and avoid impacts to wetlands (Section 30233), and feasible avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures have been provided to minimize adverse environmental effects. Section 5.10 evaluates the PWP/TREP improvements under the Coastal Act's conflict-resolution provision (Section 30007.5). It concludes that denying or modifying the PWP/TREP would conflict with policies in Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act and that even if the PWP/TREP conflicts with the Coastal Act's wetlands provisions, approving the PWP/TREP on balance is the most protective of significant coastal resources.
For LOSSAN rail projects included in the PWP/TREP that improve the movement of freight, the local coastal program (LCP) policy consistency analysis provides guidance and background information for analyzing rail project consistency with Sections 30230, 30231, 30233, and 30236 of the Coastal Act, as appropriate and applicable (see Chapter 1 for additional discussion of LCP applicability to rail projects that may fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Surface Transportation Board). The corridor's LCP water quality, wetland, and stream channelization policies are summarized with brief city-specific consistency analyses below, which also integrate and supplement the above consistency analysis for Sections 30230, 30231, 30233, and 30236 of the Coastal Act.
Most of the corridor LCPs include policies that mirror, in part, the requirements of Sections 30230, 30231, 30233, and 30236 of the Coastal Act; however, the LCPs also include a variety of additional, detailed, and city-specific policies and development standards that address potential impacts associated with water quality, wetland resources, and stream channelization. It should be noted that many of the City's LCP policies that address marine resources and water quality concerns are also relied upon to address natural hazards through grading, drainage, and stormwater runoff controls. As such, LCP policies that focus on grading, drainage, and stormwater runoff measures are also addressed in more detail in Section 5.8.
Common policy requirements for the protection of marine resources within the NCC LCPs include:
Revegetating graded and disturbed areas with native plant species to minimize erosion.
Implementing drainage and stormwater runoff control plans to minimize site erosion and sedimentation, and to retain and treat stormwater runoff.
Prohibiting fill of wetlands pursuant to Section 30233 of the Coastal Act.
Prohibiting impacts to riparian habitat pursuant to the environmentally sensitive habitat area protection policies of the Coastal Act (Section 30240).
Imposing setback (buffer) requirements from wetlands, streams and the shoreline.

These LCP policies are generally applied on a citywide basis in the respective jurisdictions, but in some instances are also applied to specifically address the many significant coastal water bodies that are identified by the LCP within each city, including:
Soledad Canyon
Crest Canyon
Del Mar Canyon
Encinitas Creek
El Camino Real Creek
As discussed in detail in the Coastal Act policy consistency analysis above, PWP/TREP improvements could restore water quality and tidal circulation of lagoons, improve streamflow and sediment transport from inland areas, facilitate passage of fish and other aquatic species, and restore natural shoreline processes, thereby enhancing biological productivity of marine resources and water quality. Benefits to water quality from the proposed rail improvements could result also from the reduction in VMT on area highways that could occur with increased and improved rail service as fewer roadway pollutants would be present in the surface runoff from the roadways. Any reduction in VMT with the implementation of the rail Improvements, in conjunction with the proposed highway improvements that would specifically target improving water quality on I-5, would reduce and better treat the pollutant burden in stormwater runoff from area highways resulting in a beneficial impact to water quality throughout the corridor. PWP/TREP improvements would not result in the channelization of coastal streams that would be inconsistent with Section 30236 of the Coastal Act. As such, the PWP/TREP is consistent with applicable LCP policies addressing marine resources and channelization of streams and therefore these policies would not need to be amended for implementation of the proposed transportation facility improvements.
In addition, all of the corridor LCPs include specific requirements for addressing stormwater runoff to ensure water quality is protected and, where feasible, is enhanced and restored, although the specific requirements vary between the individual LCPs, and/or within individual LCPs where the San Diego and Carlsbad LCPs include a number of specific LCP community plans or segments. The corridor LCPs collectively include the following range of policy requirements that address stormwater quality:
Ensure zero increase in the runoff by preparing an SWMP.
If a project site is on or adjacent to sloping lands, drainage systems should be designed so that the peak rate of runoff for the 10-year-frequency storm event will not exceed the rate under undeveloped conditions.
Assure that there will be no increase in the peak runoff rate from the fully developed site, and neither significantly increase nor contributes to downstream bank erosion and sedimentation.
Increases in post-construction runoff and sediment above the 10-year storm frequency reconstruction condition will be mitigated.
No increase in the peak runoff rate from the fully developed site over the greatest discharge that would occur from the existing undeveloped site as a result of the intensity of rainfall expected during a 6-hour period once every 10 years.
Assure no increase in peak runoff rate from the developed site over the greatest discharge expected from the existing undeveloped site as a result of a 10-year frequency storm.
Although the proposed PWP/TREP improvements have been sited and designed to minimize impacts to water quality and would include a number of mitigation measures to protect and, where feasible, enhance and restore coastal water quality, it is unlikely that the proposed improvements could be implemented consistent with each specific City LCP policy requirement that addresses stormwater quality. As such, LCP policy requirements for San Diego and Carlsbad requiring specific stormwater treatment standards for new development present potential policy conflicts that may require an amendment to ensure consistency of the PWP/TREP improvements with the certified LCPs.
SANDAG and Caltrans may seek amendments to the LCPs of San Diego, Del Mar, Encinitas, Carlsbad, and Oceanside to allow for conflict resolution under Section 30007.5 of the Coastal Act. Section 5.10 evaluates the PWP/TREP improvements under the Coastal Act's conflict-resolution provision (Section 30007.5). The conflict-resolution analysis concludes that denying or modifying the PWP/TREP to avoid the wetland fill impacts discussed in this section would conflict with several other Chapter 3 policies of the Coastal Act should it be concluded that the PWP/TREP conflicts with the Coastal Act's wetlands provisions, approving the PWP/TREP on balance is the most protective of significant coastal resources.
Furthermore, all of the corridor LCPs include specific policies that require buffers from wetland and riparian habitat areas and mitigation requirements where impacts to wetland and riparian areas are permitted. As with LCP policies addressing stormwater quality, the specific policy requirements for buffers and mitigation vary between the individual City LCPs, and/or within individual LCPs themselves, such as for San Diego and Carlsbad, which include a number of specific LCP community plans or segments. The corridor City LCPs collectively include a range of policy requirements that address wetland and riparian buffers and mitigation, some of which include buffer requirements without the option to adjust the buffers, and others that provide for minimum buffer requirements but allow for adjustment if certain criteria are met. Buffer areas for wetland habitats in the certified cities are generally required to be 100 feet, and pursuant to some policies, it may be reduced to 50 feet or less if it is demonstrated that a smaller buffer would protect the resources of the wetland area based on site-specific information. LCP policies generally require riparian habitat buffers to be a minimum of 100-50 feet. Corridor LCP mitigation requirements generally include a 4:1 mitigation ratio for impacts to saltwater or freshwater wetland or marsh impacts, and a 3:1 mitigation ratio for riparian impacts, with some variation between the LCPs.
The existing location of the transportation facilities requires that the proposed projects occur in areas within and adjacent to the wetlands, riparian, and sensitive habitats; therefore, the project would not provide the minimum buffer requirements articulated in the corridor City LCPs. In addition, because the proposed REMP is intended to significantly enhance water quality and marine resources in the corridor by implementing a combination of traditional and non-traditional measures to mitigate coastal resource impacts and to enhance and restore resources beyond standard mitigation requirements, it is unlikely that the PWP/TREP improvements would meet the traditional mitigation ratio requirements for wetland and riparian habitat areas included in the corridor LCPs. As such, these LCP policy requirements for San Diego, Del Mar, Encinitas, Carlsbad, and Oceanside present potential policy conflicts that would require an amendment to ensure consistency of the PWP/TREP improvements with the certified LCPs. | {

Research data just may be the hot topic of 2013. Funding agencies are increasingly requiring that it be shared and accessible, and institutions are challenged to meet those requirements. The material itself can run the gamut from data sets to information about the researchers themselves. Libraries are taking a central role in the archiving, management and reuse of this data. To help frame some of the key issues, I suggest you start with David Marques article on page 2. From there, you can dive more deeply into insight from individuals and institutions on the leading edge of various aspects of research data management. | {

Q: How to get the result of TrigFactor in terms of Cos If I use TrigFactor, it gives the result in terms of Sin:
In[483]:=
expr := Cos[x] + Sin[x]
TrigFactor[expr]
Out[485]=Sqrt[2]*Sin[Pi/4 + x]
What I want to get is
Sqrt[2]*Cos[-Pi/4 + x]
Using ReplaceAll doesn't help, since it does the replacement, but then converts back to Sin.
In[489]:=
expr := Cos[x] + Sin[x]
TrigFactor[expr] /. Sin[t_] -> Cos[t - Pi/2]
Out[490]=Sqrt[2] Sin[Pi/4 + x]
A: Try this:
Simplify[TrigFactor[Cos[x] + Sin[x]],
ComplexityFunction -> (Count[{#1}, _Sin, Infinity] &)]
(* Sqrt[2] Cos[1/4 (\[Pi] - 4 x)] *)
Have fun!
A: Use RuleDelayed (:>) instead of Rule (->) (see: tutorial/ImmediateAndDelayedDefinitions):
TrigFactor[expr] /. Sin[t_] :> (Cos[t - Pi/2])
Sqrt[2] Cos[π/4 - x]
Alternatively,
TrigFactor[expr] /. Sin -> (Cos[# - π/2] &)
Sqrt[2] Cos[π/4 - x]

I am now delighted to be offering this class on a one to one basis or for two students at at a time at Feline Care Cat Rescue in East Harling, Norfolk.
This Shelter Animal Reiki Association Reiki class is for animal lovers who wish to deepen their relationships with animals and learn practical ways to connect with and create a healing space for the animals in their lives. Reiki One classes usually focus on Reiki for people but this class focuses on Reiki for both people and animals. During the class we will cover the basics and the background of Reiki, we will also work with meditations and techniques for self-treatment as well as hand positions for the treatment of people. There will be time to practice, have discussions and for feedback. You will receive a Manual and a Certificate. Ongoing support will be provided by e-mail.
This class is for anyone who has completed Level 1 Reiki and is interested in deepening their personal healing journey with Reiki and animals. After completing this class you will be qualified to work as a professional Animal Reiki Practitioner and will be able to obtain insurance should you wish to do so. The class focuses on the more advanced meditative and esoteric uses of Reiki. Most Reiki two classes focus on Reiki for people, but this SARA class is about Reiki for both people and animals. On the first day we will look at the Reiki symbols and mantras as techniques for spiritual development and self-treatment and on day two we will focus on techniques for treating others, including distant treatment and treatment of animals. There will be time for practice, discussion and feedback. Students will receive a full Manual and Certificate. Ongoing support is provided via e-mail and there are opportunities for students to meet up for Reiki shares and group meditations.
For more information please contact Tina on [email protected] or to reserve your place, please complete and return the Booking Form. Please kindly note we will require a copy of your Reiki One certificate if it is from a different lineage. | {

A second undercover video released July 21 by the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) appears to show a Planned Parenthood doctor negotiating the price of baby parts obtained through abortion and discussing the possibility of varying abortion procedures to harvest intact organs.
Gatter appears to settle on a price of $100 per "specimen" but says she wants to investigate what other abortion providers are receiving. The video includes text stating it was shot Feb. 6 by investigators posing as a fetal tissue procurement company.
David Daleiden, senior investigator for the Center for Medical Progress, told LifeSiteNews CMP's latest video suggests Planned Parenthood violated federal laws that prohibit profiting from the sale of human remains and altering abortion techniques to obtain tissue.
The video opens with a clip of Cecile Richards, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, denying that her organization profits from the sale of fetal tissue in response to the release by CMP last week of a separate video showing a Planned Parenthood doctor discussing the sale of baby parts. The latest video then cuts to Gatter negotiating the price of fetal tissue.
Owen Strachan, associate professor of Christian theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Mo., wrote in a blog post that Gatter's statement about "a less crunchy technique" may be "the worst" thing he has ever heard.
"She says it without emotion," Strachan wrote. "She herself does not look like a monster. If you walked past her on the sidewalk, you wouldn't think she was involved in diabolical work. But she is. The banality of evil is real. Ordinary people do terrible things. They speak openly and without any shame of the bodies of little children. Their desire is not to protect and cherish these bodies, but to break as few bones and body parts as possible in order to get maximum bang for the buck.

There must a reason for all the trauma and turmoil in the world, past and present.
There must be a reason for the grief and loss we experience and the trauma we face. Believing that there is no reason takes away a sense of hope and possibility.
Without a vision, our souls find no rest.
I will hold on to hope that there is possibility for redemption and renewal each day and every moment. If you lose hope, what are you left with? Despair, sadness, grief. I've been there, in the depths, for long swaths of time. It is not a place to make your home or stay.
Climb out of the depths, out of the deep, beyond the grief and into hope.
Then, find some body workers, like Bevin (featured in the film) who can help you release the trauma in your muscles, tissues and bones. The body keeps the score and it's our job to make sure this body we've been given has all the resources it needs to heal and repair.
I've worked with Bevin on structural integration, rolfing and somatic experiencing. The way she is able to integrate the learnings of all those modalities makes her a sought-after healer.
Stress reduction cannot be underestimated as a therapeutic goal. Taking a layer of strain out of your system can work wonders for general adaptability, as well as restoring your energetic reserves.
Sometimes all we need to facilitate change is a little attention, given through physical or verbal contact, in the right places. Pressure, movement and appropriate cues can bring awareness and animation into places where we were otherwise unconscious or strained. | {

Leverkusen close to tying down three major stars to new deals to warn off January suitors
Martin Macdonald
Leverkusen are poised to agree new contracts with Moussa Diaby, Florian Wirtz and Edmond Tapsoba over the coming weeks, according to Sky Germany.
The German side are currently riding high at the top of the Bundesliga, having won seven out of their opening 11 games so far. Along with Wolfsburg, they are one of only two teams who remain unbeaten in the 2020/21 top flight.
Key to their ascendancy has been the development of three of their young stars:
Moussa Diaby
Diaby has been on the scene for a while now, having signed for Leverkusen in 2019 after emerging through the famed Paris Saint-Germain academy before making 21 appearances for the Parisiens.
After being deemed surplus to requirements in Paris, Diaby signed for Leverkusen for a reported £13.5m [€15m].
In the 2019/20 campaign, his first with Leverkusen, he contributed to 16 goals in 27 starts, with eight scored himself plus eight assists in all competitions.
He is on course to better that tally in 2020/21 as he has scored four and assisted five in 14 starts over the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, and the Europa League.
The club most closely linked with a move for Diaby over the past few months has been Man Utd, but with Leverkusen standing firm that he is not for sale at the moment after they let Kai Havertz go to Chelsea, the Red Devils are set to be left disappointed.
Diaby is poised to sign a new, five-year deal until 2025.
Florian Wirtz
One of the revelations of the Bundesliga, and indeed European football this season has been 17-year-old Wirtz breaking into the Leverkusen first team to plug the giant Havertz-shaped hole in attacking midfield.
He had previously been with Koln's youth ranks before making the transfer in January of 2020.
Wirtz is currently contracted until 2022 but Leverkusen hope to extend that as quickly as possible, with sporting director Simon Rolfes recently saying "We're optimistic that Florian will stay longer."
The young German made his debut for the club in the 2019/20 campaign and scored his first professional goal against Bayern in June of 2020. With that goal, he became the youngest scorer in Bundesliga history at 17 years and 34 days old.
Although no potential suitors have emerged as of yet due to him having just signed for Leverkusen a year ago, the club are aware of his quick development and want a long contract in place as he hopefully emerges as the club's next superstar.
Edmond Tapsoba
Leverkusen currently have the second-best defensive record in the Bundesliga behind RB Leipzig, having conceded just 10 times in their opening 10 games.
Key to their solidity, and play from the back, as been Tapsoba, who has slotted seamlessly into the starting XI since moving from Vitoria last January for a fee of around £16m [€18m].
Calm and collected at the back, but still ferocious in the tackle, Tapsoba has formed a formidable partnership at the back with Jonathan Tah, and is quickly emerging as one of the most promising central defenders in Europe.
According to FootballCritic, he is one of the top 10 defensive performers in the Bundesliga with an overall 85 FC Rating.
He has won 80% of his tackles which is the fifth-best tally in the Bundesliga for 2020/21,
The key to his game is his ability to play out from the back, though, as he averages an enormous 114.3 touches per game which is more than any other player in the Bundesliga.
He recently told the official Bundesliga site that the move to the Bundesliga was a dream come true.
"Yes, it is a dream that became reality," he said.
"It happened so quickly. But it's important that I keep working hard, that I keep listening. I learned that from my older brother. Always believe in myself."
Leicester have been linked with Tapsoba in the past, but when Leverkusen insisted he was not for sale in the summer they turned their attentions to Wesley Fofana.

In the midst of Rihanna's crazy life, boyfriend Matt Kemp provides an oasis of calm.
"I'm so happy. I feel really comfortable, and it's so easy," the pop star, 22, says of her relationship with the Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder, 25, in Elle's July issue.
In the Elle interview, Rihanna also looks back at her time with Chris Brown – a relationship that was the opposite of calm at times, and ended after he assaulted her in February 2009. | {

The Emmy® and Peabody® Award-winning, animated series, South Park is created by comic geniuses Trey Parker and Matt Stone, features the breathtakingly irreverent and ruthlessly funny misadventures of four foul-mouthed, troublemaking young boys in a small town nestled in the Colorado Rockies. It has been praised by the prestigious Peabody® committee as "COMEDY CENTRAL's notoriously rude, undeniably fearless lampoon of all that is self-important and hypocritical in American life, regardless of race, creed, color or celebrity status." We couldn't agree more. Now in its 16th season, South Park continues to surprise even its most devoted fans each and every week. Known for its unbelievably immediate and ruthless responses to world events, South Park new episodes bring up-to-the-minute news and pop culture icons (including Al Gore, J. Lo, Oprah, Sir Elton John, Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and P. Diddy) to the town of South Park for social commentary and good old-fashioned ridicule. | {

This rain detector will give you a heads-up the instant it starts to rain, hopefully giving you time to close windows and bring in possessions. The battery-powered circuit draws virtually no current when the sensor is dry and the current consumption is low when the buzzer is activated so a couple of AA cells will last a long time. Alternately, a molded power supply with a simple voltage regulator to drop the voltage to 3 volts could be used. The circuit is basically a handy flasher circuit that operates well on only 3 volts using ordinary silicon transistors. When the circuit is triggered, the buzzer is pulsed about once per second for a very short time, giving it a "dripping water" sound which seems appropriate. A slower, longer beep may be had by increasing the 1 uF capacitor. The 10 k resistor may be increased for a longer beep time without decreasing the beep rate but at some point the circuit will cease to function properly, depending on the gain of the transistors.
The resistors are not critical at all and any type or size should work fine and reasonable close values are OK although the values shown are quite common.
The 1uF capacitor may be just about any type, with a 16 volt aluminum electrolytic being the most likely choice. The capacitor will see about 1/2 volt reverse bias at times so a 10 volt or higher tantalum capacitor is a better choice; they can handle about 10% of their rating in reverse. A non-polar ceramic capacitor is also a good choice but don't hesitate to use a cheap electrolytic since there is a large resistor in series limiting the reverse current and this isn't exactly a deep space probe!
The 0.1uF is not critical at all and my circuit works just fine without it. It is there in case the buzzer's noise tended to retrigger the circuit.
The switch is any single-pole, single-throw type. My switch, grabbed from the surplus bin, has an unnecessary spring-loaded momentary position, too. I wired it to supply power to the circuit in both positions with the idea that the "test" position is for determining if the sensor has dried sufficiently to turn the circuit back on. Just an excuse to use the switch!
The batteries are just AA alkaline cells with wires directly soldered to the ends for connections. Directly soldering to a battery is a delicate process and I recommend a battery holder for the less experienced solderer. You must make the joint very quickly or the battery will be damaged! Don't dwell on it!
The buzzer is a 1.5 to 3 volt, 15 mA "mini buzzer" purchased at Radio Shack.
The copper-plated nails are available at most hardware stores. Mine are 1.4 mm x 19 mm (3/4").
Neither the construction or the components are critical but I do recommend a connector for the sensor to make it easy to work on the box. I used an ordinary 1/8" earphone style connector.
The rain sensor may be built any number of ways and is simply two conductors that are bridged by the rain water. A simple sensor is shown below. Two conductors of bare copper wire are woven through the holes so that the conductors are near each other but do not come into contact. Notice the holes each conductor uses are staggered so the loops underneath miss each other. Ordinary phone cable is used to connect to the electronics.
First, drill a small hole in the center of a penny just big enough for a copper plated nail to pass through. Solder the head of the nail to the penny with a complete fillet to seal out the rain. Now find a fairly thin sheet of plastic slightly bigger than the penny. Possible sources include the lid from a drink bottle or a lid from a peanut jar. I used a flat section of plastic from a bubble packaged product. (My particular choice was quite thin and the sensor takes a long time to dry out. ) Coat the plastic with spray adhesive and push the nail through, gluing the plastic to the underside of the penny. Once the glue has dried, use scissors to carefully trim the plastic flush with the penny. The goal is to form an insulating washer the exact size of the penny. Now drill a larger hole in the center of a nickel, perhaps 1/4". Wrap the nail with tape to mask it and spray the exposed face of the plastic washer with glue. Stick the nail through the nickel to make a penny, washer, nickel sandwich. Position the penny right in the center of the nickel and let the glue dry.
Once the glue has dried, remove the masking tape from the nail and fill the gap between the nail and the nickel with epoxy. Cut the nail short with a pair of old cutters or the cutter on a pair of pliers (not your best electronic wire cutters) since the core of the nail is steel. To avoid stress on the epoxy, don't hold the nickel as you cut the nail; hold your hand below and catch it as it falls. Solder one conductors of a length of phone wire to the nail and the other to the nickel as shown in the photo. Do not solder the wire to the nickel close to the edge as I did in the photo; that wire had to be moved in toward the center to prevent interference with the housing. Cut an arbitrary length of 1/2" PVC electrical conduit to form the housing; three or four inches is fine. Make sure one end is perfectly flat and straight. Coat that end of the pipe with epoxy and feed the wire through to glue the nickel in position. Once that has cured, turn the assembly over and pour a tablespoon or two of epoxy into the tube to get a really good seal. I decided to shove a few shipping peanuts into the hole to form a plug and poured in more epoxy to get a flush seal so that insects can't build a nest inside and surprise me later. Lead the wire inside the house to the electronics, leaving a hanging loop near the entry point to prevent water from following the wire inside, add a connector and that's it. This probe should be quite weatherproof but it may need an occasional cleaning if debris collects between the edges of the coins.
For historical purposes, I include my old design below. The circuit will run the batteries dead if it rains while you are away so a molded power supply is a better choice. For connection to a computer, I recommend replacing the beeper with an optoisolator to protect the computer. The LED in the optoisolator would be connected in series with an appropriate resistor, perhaps 470 ohms and the output transistor of the optoisolator would be connected to a suitable input port with a pull-up resistor to the computer's 5 volt supply. The simple serial port interface might be an interesting starting point. With a similar basic program one pin could be set to provide the voltage for the optoisolator and another pin could read the status.
It may sound silly at first. After all, how hard is it to look outside to see if it is raining. But if you start to pay attention, you will be surprised how often you miss the start of a rain storm. With this simple rain detector, the first few drops of rain will sound the alarm allowing you a few precious seconds to roll up windows and bring in possessions. When used as part of a computer weather data collection system, the exact time of a shower may be recorded. Fig.1 shows a simple rain detector consisting of two strips of aluminum foil glued to a piece of plastic. A single square of foil is glued to the plastic with two lead wires underneath as shown in the figure. The lead wires are striped back so that the foil makes good electrical contact with the conductors but the bare wire should not protrude so that the foil will protect the wire from corrosion. | {

The obvious starting point is her Dutch teacher at school.
I've just come to read your ad. Am I too late?
If not, here goes: I'm a native speaker Dutch an have been teaching it for 17 years to adults. So I'm sure to be able to help.
I have a large availability starting from Tuesday afternoon.
please could you tell me if you are still available to teach Dutch in central Brussels? I am in need of a teacher for my eldest daughter who is preparing for exams and more conversational lessons for my two younger children.
I'm looking for a suitable Dutch language teacher for my son who is in third year high school. Thanks in advance.
I am a Dutch teacher with experience. | {

Why This Book
To understand this one must have some appreciation of the general character of the great masses of medical books that crowd the shelves of ever-growing medical libraries at home and abroad. Practically all these books are by physicians for physicians and it is almost impossible to find one written down to the comprehension of even the intelligent layman, who cannot understand the medical terms used, many of which are long Greek or Latin derivatives. If the reader stops to consider why this is so, the conclusion will probably be reached that the language of science is frequently not comprehended by the non-scientific, and further that the doctor who makes his living treating diseases can hardly be expected to possibly lessen the value of his services and the dignity of his position by baring his knowledge and its mysteries to his patients.
Of so-called non-professional health books there is apparently no end. They have been rather severely characterized as a weariness of the flesh, frequently written by incompetent people, often for the purpose of exploiting pet theories. So far as we are aware this is the first time an attempt is made to exploit not the theories of a writer but the mature investigations, discoveries and opinions of the most competent investigators and instructors in the medical and scientific world on this subject, each of whom has done something worth while. To go over a broad field of medical research and carefully select the best, which is generally also the latest, re-produce it in understandable, summarized form as a connected narrative, carefully developing the point in each case, so the lay reader can get an adequate comprehension of it, introducing the opinion of the present authors only where it will be helpful, is a task for a medical editor and is the one undertaken in this book.
The medical man has another peculiarity. Although this volume concerns itself in a large measure with one of the gravest physical disorders of civilized man, one that has been truly called "the mother of diseases," we are informed by so eminent an authority as Sir Arbuthnot Lane, probably the leading English abdominal surgeon, that the average physician considers the subject unworthy of special study until pain or some form of acute disease intervenes, when the books teem with discussions of the proper medical or surgical treatment. The fundamental delusion here of the medical profession, says the report of the president of the Rockefeller Foundation (1921) is that it makes a living from diseases, while the real scientific approach to the problem of human welfare is through their prevention.
The important truth underlying the present book is the recognition of the fact that "intestinal stasis, in one form or another (constipation), afflicts three fourths of the American people whether we want to believe it or not," and is the greatest single physical ill that besets the modern civilized, highly, specialized, artificial human existence.* It is not classed as a disease or even mentioned in many medical books where the untrained reader expects to find it. Instead of being so listed by the great majority of writers it is mentioned as a condition only. But that fact does not lessen in the slightest degree the very great importance of derangements of the delicately-adjusted intestinal functions as causes of disease. There is no truth connected with the treatment of illness more generally recognized by medical authority than the dictum to "cure disease remove the cause." Everybody recognizes this truth when it is dragged forth. The amazing thing is that so many people prefer to temporarily relieve a condition rather than to seek the cause.
There is a widespread, almost universal need, for a plain, simple, authoritative discussion of this great subject, full of minute detail, so the wayfaring man cannot go wrong, all from the best sources, duly acknowledged in each case, reinforced by footnotes giving biographical data to show who the authority really is and the credence to which he is entitled, with the latest methods successfully adopted in fighting this scourge, and all for a less cost than for one visit of the family physician.
Such a book could not have been written so late as ten years ago. Some of the most valuable information it contains is not yet two years old. Back of 1907, when x-rays were first used in studying intestinal phenomena, there was little reliable information of many of the functions of the colon. One authority says that up to that time the human intestine was a sort of terra incognita—an unexplored internal organ over four and a half times the length of a six-foot man. Even now there are few competent men who have specialized on this subject. Before an investigator can qualify as an ex-pert many hundreds, even thousands of cases, should pass through his hands and receive the most enlightened study. Relatively few men have had such opportunities and of these a large percentage are also interested in many other diseases that require critical examination.
The professional medical man of large and successful experience would never undertake a work of this character. It requires an editorial survey along medical lines wholly foreign to his methods. He is not primarily an expositor of other men's writings but a setter forth of his own experiences, discoveries and theories; in other words, he is distinctly a contributor to the general fund of medical knowledge.*
An interesting fact that developed from the study of this subject, that has now extended for a period of over twenty years, is that obsolete and worthless advice is still repeated by authors of good repute. Take cannon-ball massage as an instance. In at least two reputable books printed as late as 1921 the old advice is repeated to roll a covered cannon ball of twelve pounds, or greater weight (one author suggests twenty-five pounds), over the course of the colon as a means of massage in intestinal stasis. In the first place, unless the experimenter is exceptionally well informed, the location of the transverse colon is not known, as it is a common experience to find it looped well down in the abdomen, sometimes reaching the pelvic floor. In any event the cannon ball would do no more than increase the impaction of the contents, thus adding to the affliction from which the discouraged patient is already suffering.
Throughout the book no medical term that lies beyond the common knowledge is used without an accompanying definition so it can be easily understood by lay readers. These definitions are sometimes repeated at intervals but in different terms, on the theory that even intelligent readers are not likely to remember so many definitions of unfamiliar words. The reader who does not need them will keep in mind the large percentage of those who do and the paramount importance of reaching their understanding.
Nothing is of more importance in the study of this subject than a working knowledge of the anatomy of the organs involved. Adequate cuts from the best sources have been inserted in the text wherever they are useful so that the reader can follow it with real enlightenment.
The inference should not be drawn that there are no original observations in the text. Aside from the theory of the book, its scope and the orderly development of the theme there are certain views that, being new, were not derivable from any authoritative source. That the reader may not be misled the more important of them are set out: The superiority of bran to agar and the greater disintegrative power of the former as well as its power to retain much-needed moisture; the non-injurious effects of the wise use of the enema and its differentiation from the coliclyster (colon irrigation), with some basis in authority; the seriousness of the menace of in-complete defecation; harmonizing views on conflicting theories of water drinking; the chapter addressed to youth; a re-statement and extension of the, theory of abdominal exercises in comparison with massage; the very great importance of new discoveries in the use of lactose (sugar of milk) and the development and assembling of important facts that, outside the field of disease and frequently within it, indicate the principal cause of bad complexions, bad teeth and loss of hair.
Lastly, the primary motive behind the work is service; and the earnest hope of the authors is that they may be justified in their labors.
About The Human Colon
The main function of the human colon is to transport waste material from the small intestine to the rectum. While food is still in the small intestine, all the vital nutrients are removed and used by your body. The waste matter that is leftover is then passed onto the large intestine, which is the first portion of the colon. In addition to serving as a transport channel, the human colon also absorbs water and sodium from the waste it pushes through to the next stage. What remains after this absorption process is called stool. This stool passes from your colon into the rectum and out through the anus when you have a bowel movement.
Facts About The Colon
For every foot of colon we can store approximately five to ten pounds of feces.
Some practitioners of colon hydrotherapy believe that accumulations of rotting stool and improperly digested food line the walls of the colon (large intestine) and that this material causes autointoxication. Autointoxication, which means self-poisoning, is a theory (now discredited) based on the ideas of ancient Egyptians and Greeks.

The Secret Life of Miel is a mind twisting trip into the dark world of a woman with disturbing powers. Miel, having just come back from the dead, must deal with her scattered memories and what appears to be the Devil himself who is called Diavoloc, an all-powerful demon figure followed by a host of Underworld minions called Lost Souls. Miel is not completely on her own either. With her dark gifts and her special dark friend she fights against Diavoloc who has come to claim the life of her lover, Piotr.
In the story, Miel faces her past as she fights her way toward an uncertain future. Horrors from her past re-emerge and thwart her efforts to save Piotr from the clutches of Diavoloc. And yet, like all good stories, everything is not as it seems. There are many time jumps. Miel is often confused by what she remembers. In a poorly crafted story this would almost certainly confuse the reader as well. Fortunately, the author does a good job of handling the time jumps, which are for the most part seamless and sensible.
I enjoyed reading this story. It will keep you in suspense until the end, wondering what the hell is actually going on. The small amount of time needed to work your way through this dark tale is worth it. Overall the writing is good, clichés are minimal, and aside from the occasion minor grammar gaff the sentences are sensible making The Life of Miel an overall highly recommended read. | {

Ahhh, to be young and at the top of your game. Yoon Seol Chan (Yong Joon Hyung of BEAST) is only a teen but has already "made it" as part of the top teen idol group called Men in Black. But his hot temperament always gets him into hot water, which his management agency has to constantly try to rectify and smooth over. When Seol Chan flies off the handle and causes yet another ruckus, his agency gets fed up and decides to teach him a lesson. They sideline him and force him to go back to a regular high school and live the life of a normal teenager. But not to be kept down, Seol Chan joins the high school music club and tries to rebuild his career. Can he regain his superstardom? "Monstar," which is a combination of the words "monster" and "star," is a 2013 South Korean drama series directed by Kim Won Seok, who also directed "Sungkyunkwan Scandal" (2010). It is the cable network Mnet's first original scripted drama series. | {

Lo siento pero creo que hay otro error.
I think your server uses a different user for PHP as when you upload it by FTP.
Login via FTP and reset user permission and owner to the files that don't work anymore.
Or download the latest package from our download area and replace the files manually, will have the same result as number one.

Laminine Food Supplement is 100% food grade. It is a mixture of chicken egg tissue extracts with fish & vegetable protein. Laminine® contains Opt9™, a Proprietary Blend in 620 mg per capsule. Other ingredients are Vegetable gelatin, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate. Laminine is in powder capsule form.
Also known as Fertilized Chicken Egg Tissue Extracts, this core ingredient of Laminine was originally discovered by Dr. John Ralston Davidson in 1929, a Canadian doctor who was looking for a cancer cure for his patients.
Some fifty years after, the ingredient was referred to as Young Tissue Extract (YTE) by Dr. Bjodne Eskeland, a Norwegian doctor who continued on with the research and found a better way to extract the ingredient. He too believed that the egg extract can positively influence cellular health.
By the mid-1990s, YTE research gained medical popularity. It was even featured in Canada TV as a documentary on cancer-cure, where it was referred to as an important discovery that has been clinically tested and found to influence cell repair, restoration, and proliferation.
Since early 2012, LifePharm Global Network has sourced its Fertilized Avian Egg Extract from organic, cage-free, hormone-free chicken farms in the United States, which is then developed with the process of Hygienic Evaporative Cooling Technology.
When this method was discovered, converting the Fertilized Avian Egg Extract from a liquid to a powdered form made it possible to harvest the peptides from egg in its most purest, potent, and concentrated form.
This technology is exclusive to LifePharm Global Network and was not readily available anywhere else in the world besides the United States. Previously, LPGN sourced its Fertilized Avian Egg Extract from Norway, but the change occurred in order to ensure the quality, traceability, and supply of materials. The laws governing avian products are especially stringent in the U.S.A., and LifePharm Global Network prides itself on operating under FDA and GMP guidelines.
This proteins extract comes from fish, sea (vegetable) plants, & yellow pea. Fish extracts are from shark cartilage. Cartilage is flexible tough elastic tissues. The extract are known to fight cancer and provide as an agent to increase immunity, arthritis, psoriasis, wound healing, inflammation of the intestine, and damage to the retina of the eye due to diabetes.
The vegetable proteins in Laminine are extracts from sea plants and yellow pea. Yellow pea, in particular, is known to bind up cholesterol-containing bile and move it out of your body. This can help with conditions like irritable bowel syndrome and diverticulosis.
Yellow pea also provides protein, B-vitamins, and several important minerals. Peas also contain isoflavones, which are helpful in reducing the risk of breast and prostate cancer. Peas help stabilize blood sugar levels. Studies shown that type 2 diabetics can lower cholesterol, triglycerides, and VLDL (Very Low-Density Lipoprotein).
The ingredients of Laminine includes 20 + 2 complete full chains of amino acids, where 8 are essential to our body's daily need for repair, energy, and recovery. Laminine's unique and patented ingredient base – OPT9™ that contains Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF), found in the extract has been proven by science to promote cellular health. Combined with other vitamins and minerals that are sourced organically, Laminine is presented as the best and ideal supplement when it comes to maintaining and promoting homeostasis. All of the ingredients found in Laminine is generally recognized as safe by the FDA (GRAS).
Others – Vegetable gelatin, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate.
* Silicon dioxide is an anti-caking agent, used to prevent clumping. Silicon dioxide exists naturally within the earth and our bodies.
Please provide me the contact number in Cebu where I can order this product. I would like to visit the office in Cebu as well. I have been prayer for guidance on how I can help help myself be better and healthier. I honestly feel that God has led me to this product revelation.
is there a distributor in thailand??
I have had a gastric bypass and wonder what effects my procedure might have or help with nutrients absorbed. I have also been diagnosed with lymphocyte colitis. Will this be helpful to control the symptoms?
We'll ask around for testimonies for your condition, but generally, Laminine should be good for you because what it does is to "repair" damaged cells and let your body produce enzymes or hormones necessary for recovery. It also contains amino acids which will provide the necessary nutrients you need, aside from vitamins from food.
hi! I would like to ask if this is good for MS patients? and if yes, which product u can recommend ..
Since there are no known cures for Multiple sclerosis disorder, what Laminine (original) may do is to reduce flare-ups since it encourages certain hormones to make a person feel 'relaxed'. It will also give energy (Amino acids), that boosts energy levels during an exercise. Dosage can be the standard 1 capsule am, 2 capsules bedtime.
it is ok to take laminine if you have endometrial polyps?
Yes, Endometrial Polyps are usually affected by hormone levels where Laminine may help. Also since it may cause bleeding, Laminine can help restore the blood cells and even repair damaged cells or linings in the uterine.
i was just worried, because i am taking laminine since january of last year. though sometimes i cant take it regularly due to busy schedule and sometimes I forget, Every 3 months i buy the family pack, because i also let my parents take it as their food supplement because they are already old. but just recently, i had my yearly check up to my OB, but sad to say on my ultrasound, the doctor found out i have endometrial polyps.. i dont know if i should continue to take laminine or not.. by the way thank u for the reply, i appreciate it..
Your welcome! Laminine is highly recommended as a regular health maintenance. It maintains homeostasis and help prevent existing diseases or unknown sickness to further worsen. You can read Laminine's clinical studies here.
Can children diagnosed with ADHD take laminine?
Yes, we have customers/children who takes Laminine for their ADHD, the effect is very positive. 1 capsule 30 minutes before meal, 1 capsule at bedtime for children below 7-14 years old or depending on the built. 7 Years below is 1 capsule only or split powder in 2.
I would like to try your product Laminine in UK, do you have a shop in United Kingdom? I've read reviews and seems to be an ace! but would this be endorsed by UK Department of health?
Yes Laminine UK will open in United Kingdom (and soon in other British territories) on March 30, 2015. The Department of Health UK do not make an endorsements of a product, but FDA-UK gives the permit to sell a product as approved, with a disclaimer for general safety. FDA-USA and FDA-UK has a mutual agreement and proper documentation has been submitted and finally approved.
I would like to know if laminine contains in any way nano particles?
Our ingredient knowledge for Laminine is limited to what we're told by the mother company. To our knowledge, advanced technology was used in producing the extract from the Albumen, since it works well even when ingested through the stomach, this may include nanotech, but we cannot confirm this.
Thanks for the clarification. I will try the product.
I am Turkish but I am living in Brunei. I couldn't find any distributor company in Turkey. Will be any problem , If I buy from Brunei and take to Turkey ? I want to buy my brother in law because of they couldn't have a baby even they married more than 10 years because of male spermas problem. Can u help me how dosage he should use Laminine per day ? Even problem is coming from male side, should female use Laminine as well ?
There should be no problem if you're hand carrying a few bottles/boxes. It will be advisable if you can take with you the receipt or Doctor's recommendation just in case. Laminine can be taken at least twice a day, breakfast and bedtime. If the male has a low sperm count, he should take it. From our customer base experience however, if the male has no problems, it's usually the female who should take and we've seen many couples have babies in 10 months average. | {

Q: Excel: Move values instead of replacing Q: If I have a value in Cell A1 and want to automatically have that value moved to another cell once I type a new value in cell A1, how do I do that? I don't want the value to disappear, only move to a new location.
I do not know VBA so this will need to be a formula.
A: Not sure if this is possible with functions. You could set the target cell as equal to input cell and then set conditional formatting on the input cell to in effect make the input text invisible once you enter a certain value. But I'm not sure if that is quite what you're asking for.

The National Association of Vandals (NAVAS) has warned presidential spokesperson, Mr Femi Adesina, against further attempts to blame them for power failures.
In a press conference held yesterday, March 31, in Port Harcourt, Publicity Secretary of the Association, Comrade John Idemudia, noted that this was not the first time Mr Adesina was blaming vandals for the passivity of the Buhari administration. He described the attempts by Mr Adesina to malign the association as cowardly and undemocratic.
"NAVAS is committed to the fight against darkness in Nigeria. All of our members are interested in having electricity in their houses and we support the Buhari administration in its efforts to combat this deadly issue.
"We use this opportunity to inform Mr Adesina that we are not Boko Haram. We do not carry out our activities indiscriminately. Our vandalisation activities undergo strict quality control checks to ensure that they affect only the profits of greedy companies and not the lives of ordinary Nigerians.
The statement also called on Mr Femi Adesina to apologise to all Nigerian vandals for his statement. Meanwhile, the President of the association, Mr Folabi Bamidele has stated that NAVAS was eager to expand its activities across Nigeria once the 2016 budget was signed. "Where would our economy and the majority of our contractors be without the diligent work of vandals in Nigeria?" Mr Bamidele noted.
You can read the full statement as originally published here.
As my people would say – kai Dan iska ne fa!
This has got to be April fools , Adonbelievit!!!!
Change! Nigerians want the real change!

A choana (plural choanae) is a funnel-like opening, especially used of the two openings between the back of the nose and the pharynx. The adjective is choanal. | {

Where is He Now
By LauraS Apr 3, 2008, 9:42pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Where is He Now
Here is a copy of a Russian-language interview with pairs figure skating Olympic and World Champion Anton Sikharulidze. You'll remember that Elena Berezhnaya and Sikharulidze were the Russian pair whose gold medal win sparked international outrage and the outing of a major figure skating scandal at the 2002 Olympics. Apparently Sikharulidze is now a member of the Russian parliament. I had no idea he had gone into politics. From the interview:
KP – Did the story with the second set of gold medals for the Canadians in Salt Lake City influence your decision to become a politician? It was a clear example of how politics interferes with sports.
AS – No, that six years old story did not influence my decision about my future life direction. I think that sport is for young people. One has to know when to quit without being pushed out. One day, I felt that I was sick and tired of being Chaplin (The program called "Chaplin" was a trademark of Anton and Elena). I felt that I grew up. I was always interested in social activities and I was preparing myself to get involved in sports politics. I am comfortable with my work at Duma (The Russian parliament) and I feel that I can be useful there.
Sikharulidze also had a comment on the new scoring system:
KP – Do you have the feeling that the TV shows overshadow the competitions?
AS – It is a world trend. Figure skating is losing its popularity. There are no real bright stars. The new system of judging also played a role in the degradation of the sport. I would call this system anti-spectators, and even anti-Russian. Even I, an Olympic champion, sometimes do not understand why the judges give their particular marks. It seems that the new rules were designed to fit the Asian type of figure skating. They force the skater to concentrate only on the elements – such as what side of the skate is used for a rotation, what is the position of the hands during the lifts? Is it really that important for the spectator? The spectator wants an image, an emotional performance that a couple could create on ice. That was the trademark of the Russian school of figure skating.
I don't really know the difference between the Asian school of skating and the Russian one, but I do think that the drive to gain points can take away from a program. But that's mainly because I find certain elements ugly (I will go on the record as ruing the day Denise Bielmann invented her namesake spin).
Anyway, it was interesting to hear from Sikharulidze and find out that he's found an interesting life outside of figure skating. They were such a beautiful pair. | {

A percentage of this print design purchase will go directly to Jidapha.
I m a proactive designer who has a passion working with branding, packaging and conceptual design.
We as a graphic designer are another type of communicator, we don't just do art but we deliberate message through the most appropriate visual media.
As for myself; an ideas always start small. Maybe the little voice inside your head give you the green light to begin something. From the basic sense; simply by hearing, seeing, touching, or speaking with someone you can plant the seed of inspiration.
This menu card is from the bold wedding invitation set, 'Clouds' from designer Jidapha Tiantongnukul. Modern yet classic all at once, these invitations would suit a beach or nautical themed wedding. The ribbon inspired text adds a touch of romance to these all-blue occasion cards. This design is available as a digital print only.
Flowing from one menu course to the next, your eyes are attracted to the plethora of Australian cuisine that is surely to celebrate the most memorable occasions of the evening. The menus highlight the reception part of what is a sacred ceremony between two loved ones. | {

The first Smart City Expo hosted more than 50 cities around the world, 118 businesses, over 6000 participants and 2000 panellists. The Expo announced the creation of a global Network of Smart Cities coordinated by the City of Barcelona, encompassing cities and businesses around the world. The objective is to promote policy actions and activities in this new field, by creating global common standards and criteria for the effective implementation of smart cities at a global level. The Expo was a meeting point for professionals active in the field of digital future cities, including heads of public administrations, practitioners and academics.
The University of Utrecht organised and hosted a LERU Research Seminar and invited researchers of members of LERU, the League of European Research Universities, to discuss a proposal of a Joint Programme Initiative (JPI) on dimensions for new research under the Urban Europe research programme. Participants came from the Netherlands (Utrecht, Amsterdam and Leiden) as well as France, Germany and Belgium (Paris Sud, Munich and Leuven). The United Kingdom was represented by Professor Phil Allmendinger from Cambridge and Dr Koen van Dam from Imperial College London.
The third Tech City Talk, hosted by Imperial College Business School and the Guardian's Tech Weekly team focused on intellectual property and copyright, building on the Hargreaves review commissioned by the Government – 'Digital Opportunity'.
Introduced as part of an administration that was somewhat unique in having had a technology agenda from the get-go, Ed Vaizey MP, Minister for Culture, Communications and Creative Industries, empathized with the need to balance protecting content creators, whilst also enabling innovators, since it was embodied within his role.
Our Future Digital Economy: If You Build It, Will They Come?
The second of four Tech City Talks, hosted by Imperial College Business School and the Guardian's Tech Weekly team focused on whether Government intervention in Tech City / Silicon Roundabout have been beneficial, and how it fits with other clusters and interventions.
Asked if Tech City was simply a brand to attract investment or whether the Government wants to invest in companies on the ground, Eric Pickles, secretary of state for communities and local government, made it clear direct government investment in companies would be the 'kiss of death.' He wants to see Tech City as a means for cities to join up globally.
Our Future Digital Economy: Who Will Build It?
Launching a series of talks on different aspects of Tech City, the Guardian's Tech Weekly team brought together a panel at Imperial College Business School to discuss the big issues.
Minister of State for Universities and Science, David Willetts, kicked things off by highlighting the need to inspire people into Computer Science. This was a theme which was re-visited throughout the evening; How can we create the 'Brian Cox effect' in the digital economy? Turing was picked out as an inspiration, and with his centenary year coming up there is perhaps an opportunity there to inspire and bring on the future digital economy generation. | {

On November 17, 2016 JPMorgan Chase & Co. agreed to pay $264 million to settle charges of securities fraud and violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), including a $130.5 million disgorgement. According to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) the firm influenced government in the Asia-Pacific region through corruption by creating a client referral hiring program that provided several officials' friends and relatives with highly paid jobs and internships. Over the course of the last seven years, JPMorgan used this fraudulent program to unlawfully obtain at least $100 million in revenues by winning or retaining lucrative bank deals.
The various candidates were usually unqualified for the position for which they were hired for, yet not even a single referral hire request was ever denied. According to the Director of the SEC Enforcement Division Andrew J. Ceresney, JPMorgan used the improper hiring scheme as a form of bribery, blatantly violating the FCPA as well as the anti-bribery provisions of the Securities Exchange Act.
The bank opted to enter into a non-prosecution agreement and agreed a $264 million settlement that included a criminal penalty of $72 million even though they did not voluntarily disclose the conduct at issue. JPMorgan did, in fact, receive full credit for making foreign employees available through the whole criminal investigation and its cooperation that helped the United States government obtain critical documents not protected by privacy laws. An additional $61.9 million civil penalty was paid because of a consent cease-and-desist order issued by the Federal Reserve System's Board of Governors.
The firm also agreed to pay a $105 million disgorgement to the SEC, plus $25 million in pre-judgement interests. This remedy ranks seventh among the biggest FCPA-related enforcement actions of all time, and is used to deter further violations of federal securities laws by depriving offenders of the money they gained illegally.

Inuit women experiencing harassment, lower pay at Canadian mine sites, report says – by Niall McGee (Globe and Mail – March 31, 2021)
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/
More than half of Inuit women surveyed by Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada in a report funded by the federal government said they have been sexually harassed at mining sites in Canada's Far North.
According to the report released on Wednesday by Pauktuutit, a national non-profit Inuit women's advocacy organization, the most frequent harassment incidents directed at Inuit women were "sexual comments, jokes, unwanted touching and emotional abuse."
Some of the Inuit reported being the subject of sexual violence as frequently as every shift. Some reported feeling particularly vulnerable because they worked in housekeeping and janitorial positions that often placed them in private areas such as bedrooms and bathrooms.
The harassed women said they had little recourse after an incident, because of the lack of Inuit female managers to talk to and the hyper-masculine work environment.
Ottawa-based Pauktuutit called for a host of changes at Canadian miners that operate in the North, including stricter enforcement of sexual harassment policies, increased hiring of Inuit women in supervisory and managerial positions, and the availability of Inuit-specific support services in metal health and counselling.

Background of the Organisation:
In the late 1980s, Romulus Whitaker, Satish Bhaskar and Alok Mallick set up a base in Wandoor, South Andaman for herpetofaunal and other ecological studies in the islands of the Andaman and Nicobar. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands Environmental Team (ANET), a division of the Madras Crocodile Bank Trust, was constituted in 1990. Five acres of land was bought in 1993 (with grants from Conservation International and the Royal Netherlands Embassy) at Wandoor on the southern tip of South Andaman, staff were hired and further grants enabled construction of a base for conservation, research, and education. ANET remains the main active environmental NGO and the only such research base in the islands.
ANET's primary aim is to help preserve and maintain the long term survival of as much of the Andaman and Nicobar natural biodiversity as possible, whilst recognising the needs of the settled human inhabitants and the threatened aborigines that depend on the natural resources that the forest and sea provide. Since extensive conservation work had not been conducted in the islands prior to ANET's formation in 1989, the team has found it necessary to tackle several different, though ultimately connected and complimentary fields. ANET aims to teach local people of the "workings" of these fragile island eco systems and help them understand the dangers of putting too much pressure on its resources. The team also endeavours to instill a greater level of environmental awareness by encouraging stakeholders to appreciate nature and develop an active interest in conserving the islands' wildlife and habitats while still earning a livelihood in a sustainable manner. Further to this,
ANET supports and trains local teachers, school children, settlers, members of the armed forces and administration, biologists, researchers, students, etc. to augment their network of individuals and organisations involved in conservation efforts.
Where we Work:
ANET has had a wide presence in the islands, although currently, our activities are focused in specific beaches and habitats. Our collaborative sea turtle project work is carried out mainly in Little Andaman although surveys are now being done to re-open camps on key turtle nesting beaches in the Nicobars that were destroyed in the Tsunami. Our surveys also include beaches and other important habitats such as mangroves, the intertidal zone, canopy studies, etc. in various areas in South Andaman and Little Andaman. Extensive educational programmes have been carried out in schools of Havelock Island. A livelihood assessment has been carried out in Karen villages located in Middle Andaman Island.
Our past work with crocodiles and sea turtle surveys included all the islands in the Andaman group excepting Narcondam Island. This island was visited by a team from ANET in 2010 and is now being looked at as a potential heritage site. ANET, with other partners is also involved in studying mechanisms of sharing and cooperation through socio-ecological change in the Nicobar Islands, specifically Chowra, Kamorta (Central Nicobar), Little and Great Nicobar Islands. In the near future with other members of our team, ANET will also be involved in conducting training on basic socio-economic monitoring of reefs and resources for the Havelock and Neil regions which are highly influenced by the tourism economy but depend heavily on healthy reef ecosystems. Earlier,
ANET and others were involved in an educational programme with the schools of Havelock Island.
Extensive studies on sea snakes, flora, marine turtles, herpetofaunal biogeography, bats, other small mammals, resource use, land use, rain water harvesting, coral reefs, invasive species, crocodile surveying and socio-economics have been undertaken. Other activities include assisting the Forest Department in ecologically suitable protected area management planning. ANET has an ongoing environment education programme and has collaborated with Centre for Environmental Education to produce a teacher-training manual in English and Hindi, ('Treasured Islands') for the schools in the islands.
Leatherback Sea Turtle Monitoring Programme:
The leatherback nesting population of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands is the single largest in the Indian Ocean. The coastline and beaches of these islands were severely affected by the December 2004 earthquake and the subsequent tsunami.
Many important nesting sites in the region were badly affected and no information exists on the effect of these disturbances on the leatherback nesting populations of the region especially from the islands of Nicobar which are prime nesting beaches for the leatherback turtles in the Indo-Paci c region. This is largely due to the remoteness of the sites and logistical constraints in conducting such a study. In collaboration with the Centre for Ecological Sciences (Indian Institute of Science), Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE), Dakshin Foundation and the Department of Environment and Forests, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, we have been supporting and helping coordinate the monitoring of leatherback sea turtle nesting in some of the prime nesting beaches of Little Andaman Island in order to understand the post-tsunami recovery of nesting on these beaches. We have also been tagging the turtles and assist in collection of tissue samples for genetic analysis of these populations.
Support for the Organisation:
The bulk of ANET's funding is provided by The Madras Crocodile Bank Trust. Financial support for the leatherback turtle monitoring programme has been coming from MTCA, Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment and the Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science.
Plans for the Future:
We intend to continue the current leatherback nesting monitoring programmes and also undertake tagging, monitoring and surveys in the more remote, though prime nesting beaches of the Nicobar group of islands.
We also intend to undertake more focused long term scientific data collection that would help understand the impacts of climate change on the sex-ratio of leatherback turtles of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Our objective is to involve more local community people in turtle conservation activities. This will not just serve as an alternate livelihood option for many local communities who are otherwise dependent on natural resources, but also help in increasing conservation awareness among the local communities.
Current data on leatherback turtle nesting from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands are patchy. In collaboration with Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science and the Forest Department, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, we plan to undertake satellite telemetry studies on the leatherback turtles of the region that would help us understand the migration patterns of the turtles and also help characterise ecology and behaviour.
This information will be valuable in formulating meaningful conservation strategies for this critically endangered species.
Role Within the Network:
While there are a considerable number of organisations working on conservation of sea turtles, most of them are based in the Indian mainland. We are unique in being the only organisation based out of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, an important
and prime nesting site for sea turtles of all four species that occur in India, namely Olive ridley, Green, Hawksbill and Leatherback. In addition, nesting sites of the leatherback turtles in the country are entirely restricted the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Our organisation has been based in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands for the past 20 years and we have been involved in sea turtle conservation in the region for more than 2 decades. Through our years of involvement in conservation related work in the region, we have built considerable rapport with the local communities (both indigenous and mainlanders) as well as the resource managers (Forest Department). We already have a strong platform of sea turtle conservation history in the islands from where more focused conservation and research actions can be launched. This is what we have to offer to the TAG.
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are an isolated group of islands from the Indian mainland and so are the conservation groups and their activities. The Turtle Action Group would provide an excellent opportunity not only to highlight our work and activities to groups of similar interests in the country, but also help to share and learn from experiences and best conservation practices from other parts of India. This knowledge we feel is vital to the evolution and long-term goals of our organisation.

Katharine Hepburn brownies are an American classic and so easy to make with everyday pantry ingredients. Turns out dark, rich, intense, chewy fudge brownies. One of our most popular chocolate desserts. Here's the original recipe.
We first happened upon the Katharine Hepburn brownie recipe—a charmingly old-fashioned brownie recipe—in the article "A Harried Cook's Guide to Some Fast Food" by Laurie Colwin, which appeared in the February 1992 issue of Gourmet magazine. Rumor has it the brownie recipe had actually appeared in print prior to that, in August 1975, when it was featured in The Ladies' Home Journal. Since then we've also happened upon it in countless other places, including, quite frankly, too many blogs to enumerate. In the compilation of Saveur recipes known as The New Comfort Food, editor James Oseland describes the brownies as "incredibly chewy bars with a full but mellow chocolate flavor." We concur—and, seeing as this simple one-pan recipe has charmed its way into the hearts, recipe collections, and bellies of countless Americans, it seems that you do, too.
Colwin's original recipe is a rather prosaic piece of seeming stream of consciousness, informally written in a blissfully no-nonsense, unpatronizing manner that's unfettered by a distinction between ingredient list and instructions. It lacks the highly stylized, precise formula common to most contemporary recipes, which only makes us—well, some of us—love it all the more. For those of you who simply must have their ingredient list separate from their cooking instructions, the more conventional—and arguably less soulful—rendition of the recipe that appeared in Saveur follows Colwin's original recipe. Originally published June 4, 2010.
2. Stir in 1 cup sugar, add 2 eggs, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and beat the mixture well.
Who Knew Katharine Hepburn Could Bake?
1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Butter an 8-inch square baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and butter the paper.
2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a large saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla and stir to make a smooth batter. Add the flour, salt, and walnuts and stir until incorporated.
3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool on a rack. Cut into squares and serve.

In my opinion, these Katharine Hepburn brownies are perfect brownies. They're dark and fudgy with a little edge of bitter flavor. I'll admit I was impatient and tried cutting into them while they were still warm. But they were too soft to remove from the pan neatly, and their flavor was also too sweet. Wait until they're completely cool, because that's when they transform into the perfect balance of bitter and sweet (and, they're much easier to handle). The fact that you can make this recipe in one saucepan only increases its appeal.
These are the absolute best brownies I've ever made! While I respect Kate, it was the note about the recipe coming from a Laurie Colwin article that had me squeeze in some time to make these great brownies. And, having made them, my passion for Colwin continues on unabated. I could've eaten the entire batch myself, in one sitting, or standing—as I found myself next to the counter, slicing off one bite after another, until I'd eaten a full quarter-batch. If "old-fashioned" translates to "uncomplicated, straightforward and easy," then this recipe is certainly the best of old-fashioned. Everything mixes into the saucepan, then transfers into a baking pan. Because Colwin's preference was for plain (no nuts), I made them this way. However, I do like nuts in my brownies and will make them next time with the optional walnuts. Or I'll make a double batch, half with and half without, since these terrific Katharine Hepburn brownies are so easy to prepare.
Incredible. These are super easy, one-saucepan brownies. The baking time was right on, and they were absolutely delicious. Though nuts are optional, as far as I'm concerned, they make these Katharine Hepburn brownies even more heavenly. I shared them with family, and our rating was unanimous: Chewy, chocolaty, and absolutely wonderful. I think I'll make another batch tonight. Do try them. You won't be disappointed.
This is an easy, basic, no-frills, old-fashioned recipe—perfect for those who love sweet, uncomplicated brownies. They're chewy on the edges, moist and fudgy in the middle, and they form the hallmark of a good brownie: That thin, crispy layer on top. As the chocolate is really the star here, make sure to use the best quality unsweetened you can find. With a dollop of vanilla ice cream, the sweet tooth of both young and old should be sated with these Katharine Hepburn brownies.
I thought these Katharine Hepburn brownies were phenomenal! They were very rich and moist, and very chocolaty. I usually don't like supersweet desserts, and I found the amount of sugar in this recipe was perfect. The top was nice and crackly, and everyone who tried them at my Memorial Day picnic loved them. You don't need to invest in expensive chocolate for the brownies to have a great flavor. I'd also add some notes to the recipe: The brownies should cool for 5 to 8 minutes, at least. Also, cut the brownies with a very sharp paring knife and wet and rewet the knife constantly before cutting the next block. Cool the squares on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes. You can store them with pieces of wax paper between layers, so the warm brownies don't stick to each other. And instead of flouring the pan, I'd use cocoa powder on top of the butter in the pan, just so there are no unsightly white spots on the bottom. This recipe is a definite keeper, and is going into my recipe file.
This Katharine Hepburn brownies recipe is easy and absolutely delicious. It took about 5 minutes to mix and 40 minutes to bake. I might have underbaked the brownies just a bit, as they are very chewy and fudgy. This makes them delicious, but very difficult to cut into neat squares. A few more minutes in the oven wouldn't have compromised moistness, but would've made it easier for a beautiful presentation of perfectly cut squares.
These Katharine Hepburn brownies are nice, chewy brownies. I'm not a fan of nuts in brownies, so I like that the basic recipe calls for no additions (they're just optional). I love that the recipe comes together so quickly, too. There weren't any left in the pan to take to work the next day.
These brownies could not be simpler to make. The recipe yields light, moist, fudgy, somewhat thin brownies with a slightly cake-like texture. I love that this recipe does not call for a lot of flour. All the ingredients were already in my pantry except for the unsweetened chocolate. I ended up using Valrhona bittersweet (70%) and added just shy of 1 cup sugar. The recipe was right on in terms of baking time and the brownies were enjoyed by all. I will definitely make this recipe again. I lined my pan with parchment so clean up was a breeze.
I've been baking these wonderful brownies for more years than I can remember having gotten the recipe originally in a Liz Smith column in The Daily News. It has to be 30+ years because I used to send them to my daughter who graduated from college 20+ years ago and we were eating them at home for years before. They will never be replaced by any of the thousands of recipes for brownies that have appeared over the years, even the ones called "Adult Brownies" and I have to admit having tried a good number of them and always reverting to Kate's Brownies as we familiarly call them.
This has been my go to Brownie recipe for years, it always amazed me to get all the compliments when I served them, the are nice and moist, and they disapper really fast. Why buy brownies from a box mix when you can make this wonderful recipe.They are amazing.
Funny that I came upon this recipe in my Leite's newsletter. I was just thinking about making a batch of these brownies, however, the one I was looking at is from Dorie Greenspan's Home Baking book. Has anyone tried Dorie's recipe for Katherine's brownies? I'm interested in knowing about the taste and textural difference. I was thinking about combining certain elements from each of the recipes, but I may end up trying the one posted here because I'm not sure about the cinnamon called for in Dorie's version. I like my brownies pure in terms of chocolate taste.
I have been making these brownies for years! I think they are the best. I got my recipe from the Pittsburgh Press.
Rose, yes, they're definitely a favorite with everyone here. Glad you like them, too.
These are really delicious. Do not try to make a double batch, however. Also, try baking in a pie plate and cutting in wedges.
Many thanks, Diane. Love the pie plate approach. And yes, when baking, best not to ever double a recipe. Science can be weird like that….
Wonderfully delicious and EASY! I like the pie plate suggestion. Thanks!!
Exactly, Bianca. Methinks you'll not find an easier or more enticing brownie recipe. Ever.
Love that you are referencing Laurie Colwin — miss her wonderful food writing and lovely spirit.
Candace, yes, she was a special woman and a lovely writer. Gotta keep the spirit of these wonderful folks alive.
I have actually been making these since the Ladies' Home Journal article came out–not surprised it was way back in 1975! As I recall, the recipe wasn't in the article, but in the editor's column at the beginning of the magazine. Always loved Hepburn–even spelled my daughter Katharine's name like hers! By far the best brownie recipe around. A sprinkling of powdered sugar is nice, and sometimes I add a quarter teaspoon almond extract and a few crushed amarettini cookies–delish! These brownies never disappoint!
Wow, you're a longtime fan. On occasion, I've added a bit of cinnamon. Lovely.
I know!–makes me sound ancient, but I started baking when I was 2!…lol … Your blog sent me in search to learn more about Laurie Colwin, and I'm eagerly awaiting arrival of "Home Cooking" via Amazon tomorrow! Thanks!
These are so so so so so amazing! Chewy edges and corners, and gooey fudgy interior. My son declared these the best plain brownies he has ever had (i omitted the nuts). And we have tried tons of recipes in search of our favorite. Thanks!
NRS, you are more than welcome!
This was the exclusive brownie recipe of our home when I was a child. One of Katherine Hepburn's instructions in the recipe I remember from the clipping, that is omitted above, is after adding the eggs and vanilla, to "Beat like Mad!" A testament to her brilliant humor! Thanks for bringing this recipe back to life.
How terrific, Kellie! Thanks for taking the time to let us know. I'd never seen that in any of the versions of the recipe that are attributed to her, but that certainly sounds like her. I shall think those words each time I make this recipe from here on!
At first I was surprised by how little flour these brownies have. Super delicious and chewy — Because these brownies were so sugary, they were kind of like the espresso of coffee — an intense zap of chocolate and sugar. As a chocoholic, it was an efficient and tasty way to shock my sweet tooth into remission for a little while.
Wow, you're on a roll here with LC! So glad you like the recipe. It's such a major indulgence, but oh, so worth it.
Can semi sweet chocolate be used in place unsweetened chocolate. And if so do I measure everything the same or do I have too add or take away from the recipe. Really love to know.
Diane, baking is a pretty exact science. We haven't tested this recipe with semisweet chocolate in place of unsweetened so I can't recommend that approach. The difference in fat content and sweetness would require a lot of tweaking in terms of butter and sugar and I don't want to guess and lead you wrong. Trust me, the original recipe is so wonderful it's well worth finding some unsweetened chocolate.
These sound exactly like the brownies I grew up with in the 50s. I've been looking for this recipe for decades!
I can remember baking them. I remember melting the chocolate over a double boiler and constructing the batter in the bowl the chocolate was melted in. I remember the spare amount of flour. And I remember that thin cracked surface that was half the allure.
I am so grateful for the simple perfection of this recipe. I've had lots of variations but never anything that improved on what my mother baked.
You're so very welcome, rainey. I'm incredibly pleased we could bring it back to you. I know what it's like to have a recipe go missing and haunt you.
Thanks once again for this recipe.
I just made them to include in the filling of this gorgeous bread using the technique David Leibovitz describes for filling this babka. The bread is intended as a gift and I will present it with special pride and a warm spot in my heart for the special provenance of these brownies.
My daughter who is a pastry chef told me that she was taught to ALWAYS cut brownies with a serrated plastic knife. I made these brownies and she was visiting from Florida. I complained that I could never cut brownies so they looked nice. Now I can, every time.
Susanne, that's a great tip. And…what did you think of the brownies?
This recipe invokes memories. I have a nearly identical recipe, given to me in the early 1960's from a lady, originally from Boston, who brought this recipe with her when she moved west to Oregon. She was in her 80s by the time I received this recipe, and she still made several large wool braided rugs for my mother, which I am using today. I remember going to her house where we always had these brownies as a little snack with our tea.
Back to the recipe. Mine also includes frosting, which is like including fudge as a topper for these fantastic brownies. Thanks for reminding me of this memory.
Laurie, thank you for sharing your story. We love living vicariously through others' food memories. So profound how food can calm and comfort and please us decades after we experienced it.
Definitely our go-to brownies. Regardless of what other dessert I make for a gathering…these must also be on the table!! I started adding a bit of instant espresso powder…which is also tasty…but not so much that the brownie taste like coffee. Super easy too!!
Carla, superb! And a little espresso powder does wonders for chocolate desserts of all kinds.
I agree with you on both counts. I love these brownies and the mustard chicken! | {

There will be a flood recovery meeting on Wednesday November 2, 2016 6:00 PM at Pines Chapel Missionary Baptist Church Pinetops NC.
Resources such as FEMA, SBA, Billy Graham/Samaritans and other will be available to help flood victims.
The Watch Dog: Now if this is true then Brazile will receive The DCN Super Ignant Award. One would think that highly educated folk would know better than to do something that can be traceable.
Princeville Town Government will be hosting a flood recovery meeting on Tuesday November 1, 2016 7:00 PM at Tarboro High School.
The Watch Dog response: I am looking forward to the construction of the DCF.
The Rocky Mount City Council will let locals voice their opinion on the Downtown Community Facility on Tuesday in a special public meeting.
The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. on the third floor of the Frederick E. Turnage Administrative Building. The facility has been a point of contention for residents for many years. The most recent series of city council meetings have seen the facility taking one step forward after another but not without some resistance.
Today I traveled to New Bern NC to pick up my wife. I had took her to New Bern On Friday October 7 because she has been spending time with her mother. I was unable to get there for 2 weeks because of the flooding in that area such as Kinston NC. And then because of here schedule and my schedule I couldn't get there last weekend.
Today I finally got my dad registered with FEMA after having some issues with registration.
My wife and I are at the Wash House doing laundry, oh I am on the computer. LOL!
I had not told my wife that my dad was at the house because at first he was with his sister. I didn't want her worrying about him being there and she had not been to the house to fix things. So as we were leaving Greenville late this evening I told her. And she went off on me because she said why I didn't tell her so she could have came home last weekend but I told her she had some business to handle in New Bern and I was trying to handle my business here with my son and my dad. She come in rearranging things to make my dad comfortable.
Well I am going to work my wife before she goes back to New Bern in a couple of days and where it will be her mother and my daughter and me, my dad and my son on this end.
In times like these this is when family suppose to stick together.
On tomorrow I suppose to meet with some contractors to get estimates of what it is going to take to put the house back together. My dad has a doctor's appointment and I hope FEMA call while I am out so maybe I can take care of numerous things on tomorrow.
I sure hope things get back to some type of normalcy soon however it is what it is. We have to do what we have to do especially taking care of our parents.
It is a blessing to have parents and to be able to do for them.
TARBORO — A first-term councilman has been tapped as the town's new leader.
Councilman Leo Taylor has been selected by the town council to serve as mayor pro tem.
The council's former Mayor Pro Tem Taro Knight stepped down at the same meeting, citing his battle with cancer. | {

There are all sorts of items on your car you can adjust, and as you've probably noticed, some have more profound effects than others. One area that often gets overlooked is the Ackermann effect. Acker who? At first glance this seems pretty obvious: you turn the wheel on the transmitter and the front wheels respond. If it were that simple, we'd be skipping this article and you'd be back to building shocks, rebuilding your diff, or some other wrenching needed in your car. This oversimplification of steering hides the fact that there is a lot of engineering and geometry that goes into this seemingly basic item.
In the simplest form of steering (think about those old red wagons most of us had when we were kids), both the front wheels point in the same direction. You turn the wheel and the tires turn around the corner parallel to each other. The problem is when this happens, a lot of scrubbing takes place, lessening the effectiveness of the tires to make a smooth arch. When a car attempts to make a turn, the outside wheel travels further than the inside one. Ackermann controls the difference in steering arcs between the front inside and outside wheel. The goal in tuning Ackermann is to get the car to keep a consistent steering arc after going from off-power to on-power, while trying to keep tire-scrubbing to a minimum. Here is where the problem lies.
Unfortunately, every track has a variety of turns that usually consist of big and small radii and once the Ackermann position is set in the car, you are stuck with its angles. So it is important to find the right balance for the track's layout where your chosen Ackermann setting will result in the smoothest, easiest and fastest line to drive. How we do that is something that isn't as hard as it sounds.
Ackermann is used rather commonly in car design but many take it for granted and have no idea what it means or where it came from. The fact is that it isn't just a word, but a name. Ackermann was actually a person who helped develop this technology way back when horse-drawn carriages ruled. It goes even further back than that and was first introduced in 1758 by Erasmus Darwin. If that name sounds familiar, it should because he shares the name with Charles Darwin, who was his son. As you know, Charles Darwin is the guy who caused a bit of a stir about monkeys, humans and evolution. Erasmus Darwin first wrote about this steering system in 1758. His paper, "Erasmus Darwin's improved design for steering carriages and cars", would spearhead a new way of thinking. However, it was never patented until 1817, when Rudolph Ackermann patented it in London, and now we are stuck with a name that sounds funny and isn't truly giving credit where credit is due. So before you go on and argue some points about creationism, let's get back on topic.
"True" Ackermann minimizes scrub by positioning both tires perpendicular to the turn center. This is defined by angling the steering arms so that a line drawn between the kingpin and steering arm pivot points intersect with the center of the rear axle. This gives true Ackermann steering geometry and this means there is no toe angle change on the inside wheel in regard to the inside radius of the circumference of the turning circle.
More Ackermann angle can be added by adjusting the angle of the pivot points on the steering arms so that the point of the intersection is forward of the rear axle's center. This steering geometry achieves greater angular inequality of the turned wheels, resulting in the inside wheel trying to follow a smaller diameter circle. In medium-to-low grip conditions, more Ackermann is suggested.
Less Ackermann angle can be achieved by having the angle of the pivot points on the steering arms so that the point of intersection is behind the center of the rear axle. This geometry achieves a reduced amount of angular inequality between the turned wheels resulting in the inner wheel trying to follow a larger diameter circle. Less Ackermann is desired in medium-to-high grip conditions.
Now that you have an idea of what more, less or "True" Ackermann angles do, it's time to put that knowledge to good use. On most of our RC vehicles, changes are made by altering the angle of the steering links. This is fairly easy and can be done a couple of ways; by changing the inner location of the steering links at the inner mount locations or by changing the location at the outer position which is usually at the steering blocks.
Most vehicles have multiple options that let you select the desired position in fine increments. Changing the inner position usually has the greater affect. By moving the inner position forward and creating the most angle with the steering links, less Ackermann effect is generated. The opposite holds true for moving the inner link further back.
This is usually the way to make changes on 1/8-scale buggies and other off-road vehicles. Changing positions on the steering blocks is used to fine-tune your Ackermann effect. By moving the link-mounting position forward, it creates more Ackermann effect and makes it more aggressive for tighter turns.
You've learned what the needs are for your tire angles, but there is more to it than that, especially since every corner can be different. As you navigate a corner, your steering input will be less or more, depending on the speed and radius of the turn. Having angled steering arms changes unequal angular movement exponentially. In other words, the more you turn the wheel, the greater the angular difference between the wheels. This is a big deal since without the same angle difference between them, the tires would remain the same no matter how much each tire was turned. For tight, low speed turns, a bigger difference in angle is needed. Of course, the opposite is true for bigger and faster turns. At the same time, both would need to go back to zero angular difference when pointed straight. This couldn't be accomplished using parallel steering arms, which is why all of our cars have angled ones.
Now that you've learned about Ackermann and realized that the name goes beyond some old guy, it's time to apply this newly-learned tuning option. Adjusting this is usually considered something reserved for experienced drivers or engineers, but with a bit of this information you will have one more weapon in your arsenal, but keep in mind, like many things, it isn't isolated. There are a lot of other things that can affect Ackermann on your car such as bump-steer, toe, camber, caster, kick-up, roll-center, etc., so take your time and experiment and record your results. When applied just right, you'll be amazed at what that magical balance does for your car. | {

Old Man Winter hasn't totally let go of his grip here in the North East, and today is a cool, rainy one here in 'the big apple'. I'm not letting the rain dampen my Spring thinking, and our friends at IGIGI put some Spring Like Pep back in my step after I viewed their new 'The Fresh Sophisticate' Collection.
The collection includes an array of mood brightening florals, decidedly fun Polka Dots, colorful spring alternatives to the 'Little Black Dress' that are all figure flattering and drop dead gorgeous! And I can assure you that is how you will feel while you are wearing them.
This is what I call the adult version of a 'sundress', and it is my favorite because it fits the name of the look book to a perfect tee, this is "The Fresh Sophisticate". This is fun, floral, fresh and sophisticated, florals don't have to look 'dated', 'boring' or 'old-fashioned' in plus, they can be flirty, fun, sophisticated and stylish. I am LIVING for this dress this season butterflies and it goes from Spring straight into Summer with a change of accessories.
I am normally not a 'pink' type of gal, but this dress is my exception. It's a grown up pink with touches of spring/summer blues and greens against the Black with the cinched in waistline, this dress is just as bold of a feminine style as the Vintage Floral.
TWO Lucky Butterflies have a shot at a $100 Gift Card to IGIGI to add a new Spring Dress to your own wardrobe. Use the Rafflecopter Widget/Link below to enter. As always our 'main entry' is easy peasy, and once you do the main entry you unlock a ton of fun extra credit entries.
IGIGI has brought me back into wearing dresses way more often and these two are going to be in heavy rotation in my wardrobe this Spring right into Summer, personal photos of me wearing these to come.

'Harmonica' FRANK FLOYD
Blues music sometimes reveals strange characters with extraordinary skills, but few were more talented than 'Harmonica Frank' Floyd. When Rice 'Sonny Boy II' Miller amazed world audiences in the 60s by playing a Blues tune on a harp stuck in his mouth like a cigar, he was pulling one third of a trick regularly performed…
LARRY DALE
Larry Dale was a Texan guitarist and singer who played some swinging electric Blues in New York in the 50s; played on some seminal records; had a brief career as a bandleader, and was still active in Harlem in the 1990s. Ennis Lowery was Larry's original name, and he was born in Hungerford Texas in…
JOHNNIE JOHNSON
Johnnie Johnson's driving, boogie piano was a key factor in the success of Chuck Berry's music, and the title 'Johnny B. Goode' is said to be a reference to Johnnie's rumbunctious behaviour when he was drinking. Credited with getting Chuck started and then sticking with him for twenty years, Johnnie had a late-blooming solo career…
GARY 'US' BONDS
In the late 50s R&B was in a strange place. The excitement generated by early Rock'n'Roll had drained away; traditional Blues was seen as old-fashioned in the post-war boom years; electric Chicago Blues was largely confined to the African-American community, and Soul, Motown and the British Invasion were still years away, so kids would dance…
BILLY WRIGHT
The 'Prince of the Blues' was a gospel Blues shouter from Atlanta whose elaborate costumes, effeminate make-up and extravagant stage show was a model for his protege, Little Richard. After a stellar recording debut this 'Prince', a.k.a. Billy Wright, had a busy five year recording career that stopped abruptly around the time Little Richard hit…
LLOYD PRICE
Lloyd Price burst onto the New Orleans R&B scene in April 1952 when his song 'Lawdy, Miss Clawdy' hit the top of the national R&B charts. With Fats Domino banging out his piano triples and producer Dave Bartholemew's 'big beat', it was one of the best selling records of the year. Lloyd went on to… | {

Summer in the Arizona desert is brutal. It's hot and humid, I've been sleeping for two days straight, and I still can't wake up. It's also killing my drive to be creative. I have all of these things I want to write, and do, but I am having the worst time with finding the drive and energy to get up and get anything done.
It's given me time to think though, and I really have to wonder, in our society as it is, are we really living things the best way we can? I don't think so, and the reason why comes down to control. This is a subject I think about often, because it is so pervasive in our lives, and we really don't realize it.
You see, in our modern society, we have all of these government departments and regulations telling us how we should live, the foods we should eat, the types of homes we should live in, etc. None of this accounts for any individuality, or freedom of thought (if you think I'm wrong, look at social media and marketing). Neither does it take into account that what works for one area of the country (or world) is not going to work for another. In other words, those who make the rules in our government don't understand that the construction methods that work so great on the east coast are just not viable in the desert. So I often think about what it would be like to live in a home designed and built from nature.
You see, as people, regardless of convenience, we really only need a couple things. Food, and shelter. We do not require a custom built home with so .many bedrooms and bathrooms, built in this color scheme, with these features. We need a place to stay out of the weather and a way to get food, both of which can be provided by nature. History has shown that we have lived like this before, we certainly can do it again.
When built properly, any home built from nature can be more safe, and is more healthy than any home manufactured by man. They are also usually cooler in the summer and hold heat better in the winter. Plus, with the added benefit of living "in the earth", so to speak, it is easier to connect with the Spirit, and easier to maintain the creative drive. | {

Year after year, UDW champions legislation that improves the lives of caregivers, working families, seniors and people with disabilities – and we're continuing that work in 2017. This year, UDW caregivers are:
Winning security for caregivers
IHSS providers who care for our spouse or child are not currently eligible for unemployment benefits, or Social Security and Medicare when we retire. Last year, our tireless
work to right this wrong meant that our communities and elected leaders were educated about this injustice. This year, we'll continue to work together to extend these basic benefits to all caregivers.
Fixing the broken timesheet system
In 2016, we helped secure an audit of the IHSS payroll process. This year, we're sponsoring and championing legislation that uses the results of the audit to improve the payroll process so that we can get paid fairly and on time.
Keeping people with disabilities safe
As home care providers, our highest priority is the health and safety of our clients. In 2017, we're working to improve our state's emergency response systems with the goal of preventing negative interactions between law enforcement, firefighters, and EMTs and people with cognitive or mental impairments or developmental disabilities in our local communities. In doing so, we hope to save lives and protect our loved ones.
And we're doing so much more!
For a full list of our 2017 legislative priorities, click here.
UDW caregivers started 2016 off with a bang. In fact, we made history.
On February 1st, for the first time ever, eligible IHSS providers began receiving pay for the hours of overtime we work – a right we fought hard to secure throughout 2015.
Throughout the year, we worked with the state to make sure overtime was a benefit for all providers. With our help, the state developed exemptions to the tough new IHSS overtime and workweek rules that helped prevent unfair disruptions in our clients' care.
Social Security and unemployment benefits for ALL caregivers
In 2016, we also began our work to win unemployment, Social Security, and Medicare benefits for IHSS providers who care for their spouse or child – an issue that has affected many of us personally, including former IHSS provider Cathyleen Williams from Barstow.
"I was Caleb's mother, but I was also his home care provider," wrote Cathyleen in an op-ed in the San Diego Union-Tribune. "Caleb passed away and my job as his home care provider ended, I applied for — and was denied — unemployment."
With Cathyleen's and so many other stories to push us, we fought hard to get our sponsored bill, AB 1930, passed through both the Senate and the Assembly. The bill would have convened a committee to look into the financial impact exclusion from basic benefits like unemployment pay has on parent and spouse providers. Although AB 1930 was passed unanimously by the legislature, Governor Brown vetoed it in late September.
"I don't think I will ever be able to truly put into words the pain of losing a child," continued Cathyleen. "But I know I want to help lessen this pain for other parent and spouse home care providers who have to navigate the world without their loved one and no social safety net."
Instead of looking at the veto of AB 1930 as a defeat, UDW caregivers can take solace in the fact that our elected leaders and the public heard us, as we can continue our work to win these benefits in 2017.
$15, paid sick days, and more
In April, we helped win one of the toughest battles facing working people today – the Fight for $15. Because of rallies, marches, lobby visits at the Capitol, demonstrations and more work alongside other low wage workers, our elected leaders agreed to a plan that will raise California's minimum wage to $15 by 2022 and give IHSS providers paid sick days.
"This a huge victory for all working Californians, but especially IHSS providers," said UDW President and our fellow home care worker Editha Adams. "We've been denied paid sick leave and a livable wage for far too long."
We celebrated this amazing achievement, but we also used it as a stepping stone. We know the work of IHSS providers is worth far more than minimum wage, which is why UDW caregivers went All In for Care. At the state level in Orange, Riverside, and San Diego counties, and at the county level in other UDW counties, we will continue to demand respect, dignity, as well as fair pay and benefits for our work at the bargaining table.
Cuts to the IHSS program have a direct impact our caregivers and our clients. The 7% cut to our clients' hours of care was restored for one year in 2015. In 2016, we also lobbied and successfully urged our elected leaders to restore our clients' hours for another three years.
Your IHSS paycheck
As we all know, the current IHSS payroll system is far from reliable. Early this year, UDW caregivers decided that enough was enough. We're tired of waiting for late paychecks and timesheets, and we're tired of not knowing if and when we'll be able to pay our bills.
In May, we testified at a joint Legislative Audit Committee hearing at the Capitol to ask the legislature to approve an audit of the IHSS payroll system. Claire Kaufman, an IHSS provider for her daughter Katie in El Dorado County, was one of the providers who told her story. "Last November, I submitted my IHSS timesheet for the first 15 days of the month and waited for my paycheck," said Claire. "I waited days and then weeks, unable to get an answer about the delay." Claire was finally paid just before Christmas in 2015, but her family had to sacrifice their holidays so that she could catch up on their bills.
The committee approved the audit, and we expect to receive the findings in early 2017. UDW will then use them to create legislation that will address and fix the problems with the payroll system.
We didn't stop at the audit, though, and throughout the year we continued to urge the state to make improvements. Finally, in October, after a lot of pressure from UDW, the state announced it would offer an electronic timesheet option in 2017.
In addition to our UDW fights and victories, we elected a new president in 2016, and despite our feelings – good or bad – about the outcome, President-elect Trump will take office in January. The incoming president, his administration, and the Republican led Congress have all expressed opposition to programs on which IHSS providers, recipients, and working families rely.
The election sets the stage for some major fights in 2017:
House Speaker Paul Ryan has long threatened to cut Medicaid, which provides 55% of the funding for IHSS.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said repealing the ACA, which has made an estimated 75,000 UDW caregivers eligible for free or low-cost health coverage, would be "the first item up in the new year."
The Freedom Foundation
And an anti-home care organization known as the Freedom Foundation has begun targeting UDW caregivers – making themselves a major threat in 2017. The Freedom Foundation tells IHSS providers to quit their union in order to save money. Unfortunately, they don't tell the full story. As a union, we've fought and won big victories, not only this year (see a list of our many victories together here). No one provider could do alone what we do together. The Freedom Foundation wants to weaken strong unions like ours, in order to further their corporate billionaire-backed agenda.
Preparing for 2017
In 2017 we will continue to urge the state to fix the IHSS payroll system once and for all, and we will keep pushing for Social Security, Medicare, and unemployment pay for spouse and parent providers.
It will also be our time to prove that when UDW home care workers stand together, we can fight back against attempts to take our healthcare, weaken IHSS, or weaken us as a union by taking our voice and power. The stakes have never been higher, but we have protected home care and our clients time and time again – if we stand together, next year will be no different.
We look forward to fighting for home care with you in 2017. Happy New Year! | {

Sanctions for Loss or Destruction of Evidence – SB1619
Under a new Virginia law that will go into effect July 1, 2019[1], parties to lawsuits now have a duty by statute to preserve evidence that may be relevant to litigation. The measure, SB1619, authorizes courts to punish parties and potential parties to lawsuits alike for failing to preserve, disposing of, altering, or concealing evidence that should have been preserved in anticipation of litigation (in legal terms, the "spoliation" of evidence).
Determining when the duty to preserve arises will depend on all the facts and circumstances, especially the factor of when the party or potential party had notice that litigation was likely and that the evidence would be relevant. Significantly, the duty may arise even before a lawsuit is filed.[2] The statute does not impose a duty of evidence preservation on non-parties.
When a party is prejudiced by the loss of potential evidence by spoliation, judges are authorized to fashion a sanction proportional to the value of the lost evidence.[3] When the party to be punished acted recklessly or with intent to deprive the other party of the evidence, however, more dramatic sanctions will be available, including dismissal of the lawsuit, entry of default judgment against the spoliator, or an instruction to jurors that they may presume the evidence would have been unfavorable to the party that lost it.[4]
The anti-spoliation statute is a reaction to the Virginia Supreme Court's holding in Emerald Point, LLC v. Hawkins[5], in which the Supreme Court reversed a jury verdict for plaintiffs injured by carbon monoxide poisoning and remanded the case for a new trial. Although the Court reversed on the ground that the trial court had allowed the plaintiffs' expert to testify on matters that had not been properly disclosed pretrial[6], the Court also examined a spoliation issue that was likely to arise again upon retrial. The defendant landlord had removed the offending natural gas furnace from the plaintiffs-tenants' apartment shortly after they were poisoned by carbon monoxide gas, and the furnace was stored in a maintenance bay for more than a year before being disposed of before the complaint was filed. Although there was no evidence that the missing furnace had been disposed of in bad faith, the plaintiffs argued that it would have been material evidence, and the trial court gave an adverse inference instruction to the jury that "If a party has exclusive possession of evidence which a party knows, or reasonably should have known would be material to a potential civil action and the party disposes of that evidence, then you may infer, though you are not required to do so, that if that evidence had been available it would be detrimental to the case of the party that disposed of it." [7] The Supreme Court, looking to federal appellate cases interpreting Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Rule 37(e), ruled that an adverse inference instruction may only be given when the court finds "an intentional loss or destruction of evidence in order to prevent its use in litigation," and not for merely negligent spoliation.[8]
Although the Emerald Point defendants settled before retrial and before passage of the anti-spoliation statute, Va. Code § 8.01-379.2:1, the new law, will promote honesty and integrity in the judicial process and permit the severe sanction of an adverse inference instruction upon a showing of reckless spoliation—a lower degree of culpability than under the Federal Rules and precedent. Other, less profound sanctions will be available to Virginia trial courts for merely negligent spoliation, provided the sanction is proportional to the loss of evidence considering all the facts and circumstances. Although the statute states a duty of evidence preservation in anticipation of litigation and during the lawsuit, it does not provide an independent cause of action for negligent or intentional spoliation.[9]
Spoliation issues can arise in all kinds of litigation at the trial court level and may affect any type of potential evidence, such as automobiles, traffic control devices, paper documents, electronic documents, social media postings, photographs, videos, medical devices, faulty products, etc. Counsel for any potential party to a reasonably foreseeable lawsuit should advise their client of the need to preserve evidence—even evidence that may be unfavorable to their claim or defense—, lest they suffer the penalty of its preventable spoliation.

We will establish a new brand of baby clothing, which will be made from fair trade, organic cotton and also produced under fair trade conditions. The name for the brand will be "Globetoddlers" and the items will be sold through a webshop as well as premium retail outlets around the world. The twist for the brand is that every item sold will be supporting a specific charity project the buyer can choose. Charities in turn can just drop us a line to be included in that list. Of course every charity will be explained and showcased on the site.
Another twist is that each garment has a code on the inside label which can be entered on our website and shows who has produced this specific item, where it was made, the story of the people who worked with it,etc. Through this we want to connect the people who made the item (and worked on it through the production process) with the baby who is going to wear it. Nice theory, isn't it?
We recently had our Logo designed also on Crowdspring, its attached. please read the must haves below,though!
What we need is design for our babybodies (actually they are Kimonos). You see two files attached, the one named "long arm body" is the cut we are going for, which is basically a Kimono. Please don't mind the design of that body, its just an example from a different brand.
The picture "long arm white" we just attached in case you want to use it as a canvas, its not a Kimono, but it will probably work. If you can make a design on a Kimono, even better.
We are targetting socially and environmentally concious young parents or people or buy the clothes as a gift for them.
there are some, but we won't tell!:-) Reason is we want you guys to show what you would like to see, more like a focus group... It should just be a fun thing to buy for your friends when they have a baby!
- Funny (We think that is one of the best reasons to buy from a brand of baby clothes. It's about having fun after all).
- You CAN use our Logo, but you really don't have to! We believe that if we get a great, outstanding design or funny slogan this can be trademark of its own.
- It's always great to see colour variantion of designs, sometimes it makes the difference!
If you have a fun slogan or a funny thing which could be printed on a baby-body, don't hold back.
The winner should also be willing to do some adjustments if that is necessary due to printing technology problems. | {

An open letter to New York City councilors

Gale Brewer, author (photo: (Kevin P. Coughlin / Governor's Office)
As New York City faces the continuing challenges of COVID-19 and new opportunities, the next city council chairman will need to have the experience, relationships and know-how to get the government to work for councilors and their constituents.
Traditionally, the New York City Council has functioned in a top-down decision-making process. As President, I will lead a more member-driven body that allows councilors to vote on their conscience.
I know that from my own experience in the Council, individual members are not always properly supported. That's the main reason I'm running for president. I want to make sure that council members have more budget to hire skilled staff, are helped with expenses such as renting a district office (with funds separate from the staff budget), and that there are no favorites or unnecessary intrigues with council staff. in matters related to land use, the city budget and bills.
Should you elect me as your President, I will take advantage of the considerable political capital and goodwill that I have earned over decades of public service. I will collaborate using my working relationships with key executives and partners in government, the nonprofit sector and business to position you to succeed in delivering tangible improvements in the lives of your constituents.
As we enter 2022 with an extraordinarily diverse council, the most diverse in history, we need to ensure that all our city delegations, caucus groups and constituencies are represented in the leadership and that they chair key committees. I would consider expanding management and strengthening the role of committees to ensure they are more productive. We need more votes at the table.
My achievements, including eight years as Manhattan Borough President and 12 years on the City Council, have proven that I know how to lead in a collaborative way by being receptive to the ideas and needs of my colleagues, unions, advocates and everyday life. New Yorkers.
This is how we tackled employment discrimination by adopting the Fair Chance Act, how we successfully took big business by winning paid sick leave for hourly wage earners, and how we improved data sharing in government by adopting the Open Data Bill. As city president, I strengthened the Manhattan Community Boards by mirroring the demographics of community boards to the districts, and through training, I professionalized the work of both staff and members. These improvements proved to be significant as my office and Community Boards faced and implemented 200 ULURPs in the last eight years.
There are many good people running for president, but I believe I'm better prepared to get the city government to work more efficiently and with greater benefit for all New Yorkers.
As many of you already know, I am low-key. I'm not looking for the spotlight. I say my opinion, I open my own doors, I carry my own bags, and I order my own coffee – without sugar, with half-and-half. My focus will be an open and responsive speaker who delivers results for the members. I have no plan or intention to use this position as a springboard, and I therefore do not want any hidden agenda in my speech in the kind of decisions we as a body make.
Throughout my career, I have been passionate about cultivating and mentoring the next generation of leaders, including thousands of interns, students at CUNY – where I teach, including current and former employees, some of whom serve or have served at the highest levels of government. If I am elected chairman, I commit myself to only serve in the role for four years, giving colleagues the opportunity to bring their own perspectives to the chairmanship.
I have long believed that a strong, cooperative leadership in the council enables it to work productively with and independently of the mayor. Remember (a treat I would like to tell my students), the Constitution requires municipalities to have a legislative body; not mayor. The Council is supposed to define the policy. The council must be a strong, independent branch of government – an equal branch – but being strong does not mean that the council and the mayor cannot work together.
Policy and budget proposals should be analyzed by the council, and the council should be a supervisory body while cooperating with the administration to better meet the needs of all New Yorkers. That is why I am hopeful and excited to work with my fellow councilors to make New York City, the largest city on this planet, even bigger than before.
Thank you for your leadership and partnership.
Gale A. Brewer
Candidate for President of the New York City Council
Elected councilor (D-6th council district)
27. Manhattan Borough President

Holy Trinity Catholic School recognizes that student wellness and proper nutrition are related to students' physical well-being, growth, development and readiness to learn. HTCS is committed to providing a school environment that promotes student wellness, proper nutrition, nutrition education and promotion, and regular physical activity as part of the total learning experience. In a healthy school environment, students will learn about and participate in positive dietary and lifestyle practices that can improve student achievement.
Food allergies are a growing food safety and public health concern in the United States. Allergic reactions can be life threatening and have far-reaching effects on children and their families, as well as on the schools they attend. The new snack procedure with the classroom celebration food list is one step that HTCS is taking to ensure the health and safety of all of our students. | {

The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) proudly recognized two operations for outstanding community relations programs during the 2018 Annual Convention in Houston.
FEC Quarry, a CEMEX operation in Miami, Fla., and Stringtown Quarry, a LafargeHolcim operation in Stringtown, Okla., each received a Platinum Award of Excellence.
CEMEX's FEC quarry hosts the most tours of any operation in the East region, with the staff serving as excellent hosts. Businesses and civic groups can attend tours held on a regular basis, that features lunch and panel discussions. Local, state, and congressional lawmakers are also frequent guests at these tours in order for the team to educate them on the value of quarries.
Stringtown Quarry employees lend their time and talents to a number of projects in the community, including a county-wide Natural History Day event. Over 500 students and parents got up close to Stringtown's quarrying equipment and learned about the industry. Employees gave more than 280 volunteer hours and 5,000 tons of road base towards constructing a bridge for the community.
This year, FEC Quarry also earned NSSGA's Two Stars of Excellence award. The association is proud to bestow a special honor for operations that receive two Gold Awards for either Community Relations or Environmental Excellence within a five-year period.
The quarry previously earned an Environmental Excellence Gold Award in 2017 and earned a Community Relations Excellence Gold Award this year. | {

Reading Now First Ever Dinosaur Bones Confirmed in Northern Ireland
First Ever Dinosaur Bones Confirmed in Northern Ireland
The first ever dinosaur bones have finally been confirmed in Northern Ireland. The bones belonged to a four-legged plant-eating scelidosaurus as well as a two-legged carnivore sarcosaurus. These dinosaurs roamed the island around 200 million years ago.
The bones were discovered by a late school teacher and fossil collector named Roger Byrne who unearthed them between the years 1980 and 2000 in Islandmagee which is on the coast of County Antrim. After his discovery, he donated them to the Ulster Museum in Belfast where they remained untouched for numerous years until researchers were able to use more sophisticated technology to finally analyze them.
And now, thanks to experts from the University of Portsmouth and Queen's University Belfast, the bones have finally been confirmed as belonging to dinosaurs – the first fossils ever found in Northern Ireland. The researchers used high-resolution 3D digital models of the bones for better analysis and to determine which dinosaur species they belonged to.
"Several specimens from Northern Ireland have been suspected, or suggested, as dinosaur bones but just two can be definitely assigned to this group on the basis of their bone histology, surface texture and morphology," the researchers stated.
At first it was believed that the bones belonged to just one species, but further analysis – specifically the internal structures and shapes – proved otherwise. "One is very dense and robust, typical of an armored plant-eater. The other is slender, with thin bone walls and characteristics found only in fast-moving two-legged predatory dinosaurs called theropods," explained researcher Robert Smyth.
Another researcher named David Martill explained the two species as being so different that they were like "chalk and cheese". He detailed the carnivorous sarcosaurus as having a large head with razor-sharp teeth along with two very powerful and muscular legs, while the herbivore scelidosaurus was very powerful with spikes that would fight if it had to.
Lead research Dr. Mike Simms weighed in on Byrne's discovery of the first ever dinosaur bones in Northern Ireland. "The two dinosaur fossils that Roger Byrne found were perhaps swept out to sea, alive or dead, sinking to the Jurassic seabed where they were buried and fossilized," adding, "This is a hugely significant discovery." The research was published in the Proceedings of the Geologists' Association where it can be read in full.
The bones are expected to be put on display for the public to view at Ulster Museum in the near future. Several pictures of the dinosaur bones can be seen here.

Holy Exchanges
The deeper meaning of the laws of tithes reflects our mission in life.
From the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe; adapted by Moshe Yaakov Wisnefsky
"Any tithe of cattle or of the flock, any that passes under the staff, the tenth one shall be holy to G‑d. He shall not distinguish between good and bad, and he should not exchange it. If he does exchange it, both it and its exchange shall be holy; it may not be redeemed" (Lev. 27:32-33)
Each season, all newborn animals are placed in a pen. The animals are then let out one at a time and the owner marks every tenth animal as tithed. These animals cannot be exchanged with other - even better - animals. If such an exchange is attempted, both animals become holy.
"If he does exchange it, both it…shall be….": The first letters of these words in Hebrew ("hameir yemirenu vehayah hu") are the same letters as G‑d's name Havayah (yud, hei, vav, hei) rearranged. There are twelve ways of arranging the letters of this divine name, and each arrangement corresponds to one of the months of the year. The combination formed by this phrase corresponds to the eleventh month, Shevat (January-February).1 The question is, though, why is G‑d's Name alluded to in a phrase describing a forbidden act (exchanging a tithed animal)?
The positive aspect of this phrase can be found in its inner meaning. Mystically, exchanging one animal for another refers to the worthy endeavor of changing the mundane into holiness. With regard to one's fellow human being, this means bringing someone who is estranged from his soul back to it, revealing to him his connection to G‑d.
...changing the mundane into holiness…means bringing someone who is estranged from his soul back to it….
This endeavor entails two exchanges: a person must first enter the realm of the mundane, descending from his preoccupation with lofty, spiritual matters and "exchange" his spiritual ivory tower for the mundane world; he can then elevate the mundane, "exchanging" it for holiness.
If a person is reluctant to leave the safe environs of holiness and enter a mundane world in order to elevate it, the Torah reassures him by tell him that… "both it and its exchange shall be holy" - i.e. both he and that which he exchanges becomes elevated to a higher level of holiness. He will not be denigrated by his descent into worldliness and that which he elevates will remain within the realm of holiness.
The idea of bringing the mundane the under wings of the Divine Presence is exemplified by Joseph, the eleventh of the twelve tribes, who is also associated with the month of Shevat.2 Joseph was named by his mother with the prayer "may G‑d add (in Hebrew, "yosef") for me another son." (Gen. 30:24)
Rachel's prayer alludes to Joseph's mission in life, which was to transform "others", those who seem to be strangers to G‑d, revealing that they are in reality "sons". Joseph returns the lost sons of Israel to their Father in Heaven. Joseph's mandate is that of every person: to transform the world, which appears to be "an other", into something whose lineage and source is apparent. This is the message of the phrase "…if he does exchange it, both it…shall be….".
[Adapted by Moshe-Yaakov Wisnefsky from Likutei Sichot, vol. 26, p. 90 ff; Copyright 2001 chabad of california / www.lachumash.org]
Pardes Rimonim 13:3; Siddur of the Arizal, kavanat Rosh Chodesh.
Each month corresponds to another tribe (Tur, Orach Chaim, 417 end). Thus Shevat, the eleventh month beginning from Nissan, corresponds to Jacob's eleventh son, Joseph (Siddur Beit Yaakov, Sha'ar HaGai).
Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson (11 Nissan 1902–3 Tammuz 1994) became the seventh rebbe of the Chabad dynasty on 10 Shevat 1950. He is widely acknowledged as the greatest Jewish leader of the second half of the 20th century, a dominant scholar in both the revealed and hidden aspects of Torah, and fluent in many languages and on scientific subjects. The Rebbe is best known for his extraordinary love and concern for every Jew on the planet, having sent thousands of emissaries around the globe, dedicated to strengthening Judaism.
Moshe Yaakov Wisnefsky is a scholar, author and anthologist, and is editor-in-chief at Chabad House Publications of California. He is the author and translator of Apples from the Orchard, gleanings from the writings of the Arizal (Rabbi Isaac Luria, 1534–1572) on the Torah, and is the author and editor-in-chief of the Kehot Chumash produced by Chabad House Publications, featuring an interpolated translation of the Torah with commentary adapted from the works of the Lubavitcher Rebbe.

Car Photography - Lamborghini Dark
The Lamborghini Murcielago may not be everybody's idea of a dream car but there's no mistaking its pedigree as one of the Worlds best known super-cars. Photographer Tim Wallace spent some time with the Murcielago this week to produce a package of images for one of our marketing clients.
The Lamborghini Murciélago is a high-performance two-door, two-seat sports car produced by Italian automaker Lamborghini. Often referred to as a supercar, it is powered by a recent evolution of the Lamborghini V12 engine, and is the flagship of the automaker's lineup. The Murciélago was introduced as a coupé in 2001 for the 2002 model year, succeeding the famed Diablo supercar in Lamborghini's lineup. The car was the automaker's first new design in eleven years, as well as the first under the ownership of German automaker VW. The Murciélago was styled by Peruvian-born Belgian Luc Donckerwolke, Lamborghini's head of design from 1998 to 2005.[2] A roadster version of the car was introduced in 2004, followed by the updated LP 640 coupé and roadster and LP 650-4 Roadster. The most recent evolution of the model is the LP 670-4 SuperVeloce, a highly tuned version that is expected to be the last iteration of the Murciélago nameplate, before the model is replaced in early 2012. | {

Flying ants hassle Wozniacki during shock exit
Caroline Wozniacki Photo: Getty
Simon Briggs
July 5 2018 2:30 AM
Caroline Wozniacki sounded so demoralised in her press conference that you needed to cup your ear to hear her. And no wonder: she had just been forced to swallow a narrow defeat to an inspired opponent, with a handful of bugs as a chaser.
https://www.independent.ie/sport/other-sports/tennis/flying-ants-hassle-wozniacki-during-shock-exit-37082331.html
https://www.independent.ie/sport/other-sports/article37082330.ece/17a21/AUTOCROP/h342/2018-07-05_spo_42247585_I1.JPG
Yes, this was the annual visit of the swarm of flying ants to Wimbledon - a natural phenomenon that somehow sounds like a 1950s B movie.
While Wozniacki was slipping to her 6-4, 1-6, 7-5 defeat against world No 35 Ekaterina Makarova, the little devils were buzzing around No 1 Court like party-goers at an all-night rave. Several of them ended up down her windpipe.
"Can the umpire stop this?" asked John Inverdale in his BBC commentary. "I don't know how," replied summariser Chanda Rubin.
The All England Club, always keen to shift the blame, pointed a finger at Mother Nature. "The seasonal appearance occurs once a year," intoned a straight-faced spokeswoman, "when ants embark on what is often referred to as a 'nuptial flight'." In other words, these insects are loved up and looking to get lucky.
Wozniacki's day was heading in quite the opposite direction. In fact, she must have been wondering which mirror she had broken to deserve such ill-fortune.
As she admitted afterwards, "I can't even be mad at myself because I played up to the level that I can. She was hitting shots that I just couldn't look at sometimes."
Many of these were screaming backhand winners that kept flying up the lines as if guided by SatNav.
And one or two had an element of fortune. Early in the third set, Makaraova's overhead flick caught the net-cord and dropped dead on the grass, as if shot by a tranquiliser dart. Wozniacki swished at the ball as it rolled gently towards her, intending to let off steam by thwacking it into the net, but only managed to tip it with her racket frame. It was that kind of day.
"Everything was going her way," said a distraught Wozniacki, who had come into Wimbledon as the second seed after picking up the Eastbourne title on Saturday. "Sometimes it happens in tennis.
"It's frustrating because I feel like I could have gone and done something really great here. For her to keep this level, I would be very surprised if you saw her go far."
Was there a hint of gracelessness here from Wozniacki? She was clearly unimpressed by her opponent's lengthy bathroom breaks at the end of each of the first two sets, commenting later that "she took her time".
And perhaps this was why she set out to highlight Makarova's status as the sort of player who scores fine individual wins, then buckles at the business end of events. For a player of Makarova's talents, three WTA titles is a poor return.
Indeed, Makarova did suffer a microscopic choke, wasting four match points to be broken while serving for the match. But she regrouped brilliantly, reeling off six of the last seven points and closing with a drive volley into the open court - the 46th winner she had struck in a quite stunning performance.
Speaking of microscopic things, what happened to the ants? As Wozniacki said: "It was definitely a first for me here. I just asked if they had some insect repellent. There were a lot of them at one point. All of a sudden it kind of died down." Perhaps they had all paired up, and then headed off for a celebratory cigarette.
Wozniacki came here with the cachet of a Grand Slam champion for the first time, having finally broken her duck at January's Australian Open. But when she was asked if that made this defeat any more painful, she seemed to be baffled by the question.
"I don't understand, what one has to do with the other," said Wozniacki. "It's obviously not the way I wanted the day to go. I played someone who went all in with every single shot, hitting a lot of lines, a lot of crazy shots that were going in. She raised her level and got a little lucky.
"At that point, what can you do? You just have to keep fighting, wait for your opportunity. I fought with all I had." (© Daily Telegraph, London)

Transitions in fiction are words, phrases, sentences, paragraphs, or punctuation that may be used to signal various changes in a story, including changes in time, location, point-of-view character, mood, tone, emotion, and pace. Transitions are sometimes listed as one of various fiction-writing modes.
Purpose
Transitions provide for a seamless narrative flow as a story shifts in time, location, or point-of view. They aid the internal logic of a story by moving readers from sentence to sentence, paragraph to paragraph, idea to idea, scene to scene, and chapter to chapter with grace and ease. Transitions in fiction also refer to how the trajectory of characters changes according to the various factors that affect them. The spatial and temporal changes affecting the characters help in the plot development. This shift can also denote a parallel transition that takes place regarding the state of mind of the character.
Techniques
Screenwriters Trey Parker and Matt Stone created the "but and therefore" rule to create transitions that eliminate writer's block and keep narratives engaging. The "but and therefore" rule consists of an approach of replacing the words "and then" with "but" and "therefore" in a story. Thus, because all events become portrayed as challenges and solutions, the narrative has tension, and thus becomes engaging. The "but and therefore" rule applies for all transitions between scenes as well as transitions between actions and reactions within scenes.
Types
Transitions in fiction may take any of several forms, including chapter breaks, section breaks, and summarization.

Bitcoin prices continue to hover near one-week lows as the resumption of "normal life" in Greece has removed much of the impetus for traders to dive in.
Banks in the economically challenged country have finally reopened after a 3-week closure designed to prevent the financial system from collapsing. However, there are still limits on withdrawals and international wire transfers are not available.
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) hit a low of $274.50 on Bitstamp in what has been highly uneventful trade during the past 48 hours. But today's low has challenged that reached late last week, an indication that more of bitcoin's hard-earned gains may be at risk.
Bitcoin has been considered by some as a potential safe haven asset during monetary crises. Its limited supply endears it as a secure store of value, similar to gold for its investors. Price appreciation, especially that of bitcoin, is more driven by the secondary effect of trader speculation of investor flight to safety than the actual flight itself.
Gold, which failed to capitalize on the Greece crisis, tumbled by nearly 3% to $1,103/oz, a 5-year low. Much of the selling came out of China on abnormally high volumes, and prices have since recovered to $1,115.
The dollar strengthened against most commodities, and the euro fell to $1.0850 despite the apparent return to calm.
Litecoin is hovering near $3.70, and is now within 12% of falling back below its 50-day moving average, which is still rising. | {

Jan Kempenaers takes pictures of urban landscapes. Motorways, monorails and canals dart diagonally from the left or right corner of the photo or are nearly perpendicular to the horizon line. The images usually consist of other buildings, the silhouette of a city, a railway, a car park, a port or other aggressive or elegant architectural interventions. Because the pictures are taken from a high vantage point, viewers have impression that they are looking at an architectural model.
Kempenaers' photographs have a striking feature: his preference for a matte, homogenous light, with minimal unfiltered sunlight. "With a grey sky you have an unreal, sparse image," he says, "the landscapes lose their depth. I find that very beautiful. "
Jan Kempenaers shoots his photos with a technical camera on a tripod. The prints are based on large negatives, usually printed on 100 x 130 cm. He strives to make the photos very sharp because he likes to be able to see something more in the enlargements than with the naked eye.
Jan Kempenaers (°1968) studied photography at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent, Belgium and at the Jan Van Eyck Academy in Maastricht, the Netherlands. Since the early 90s, Jan Kempenaers has been photographing urban and natural landscapes. In 2001 he had individual exhibitions at MUHKA and the Museum of Photography in Antwerp, Belgium. During the same year he was nominated for the Werner Manz Prize. In addition, he was a laureate for the Prize for Visual Arts from the Belgian province Flemish-Brabant, and the Prize for Photography from the province Antwerp. He has worked at the School of Arts in Ghent since 2006. In 2012, Jan Kempenaers earned his PhD in the arts with his thesis In Search of the Picturesque. He is currently working on a new project concerning abstract photography. | {

Carol Farrow
Artist (1944 - 2012)
About Carol Farrow
Carol Farrow was an Educator, Artist and Pioneer, whose work was equally accomplished across Linen, Paper, and Paperclay. She worked from her home in the village of Lherm, South West France, and from her studio in South East London.
Carol trained at Goldsmiths College in Fine Art and Ceramics, her inspiration coming from costume, objects, architecture and local buildings, as well as from surfaces worn, deteriorated or affected by age. Her work has been exhibited since 1986, showing across the UK and Europe, the USA and China. She also contributed to a number of books on Papermaking, helping to secure her reputation not only as an inspirational Teacher, but also as an accomplished Artist. Her innovative work in pioneering the medium of Paperclay, which she invented in 1981, still stands as an example of transformational artistic expression, and it will remain the lasting legacy of an artist who firmly believed that good work only comes from hard work.
Very sadly Carol died on the 28th February 2012 after a short illness,

Consider a gene, ABC, which codes for an enzyme involved in the metabolism of sugars. There are two known alleles of this gene, ABC1 and ABC2. Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the ABC gene and the ABC1 and ABC2 alleles?
a. The gene is a sequence of amino acids and the alleles are a very similar sequence of amino acids.
b. The gene is a trait and the alleles are a sequence of amino acids.
c. The gene is a trait and the alleles are a nucleotide sequence.
d. The gene is a nucleotide sequence and the alleles are a sequence of amino acids.
e. Both the gene and the alleles are a nucleotide sequence.
I thought the answer is b, but the correct answer is e. I can't figure out why so. Does anyone know?
Alleles are basically subtypes of a gene. At the time of Mendel, the molecular nature of inheritance was not known so the original definition of gene refers to "some" inheritable molecular entity inside the organism that is responsible for a trait. Alleles are different "flavours" of a given gene. For example there is a gene for flower colour, there can be different alleles which give rise to different colours (this is a highly simplified example). Genotype is a configuration of alleles whereas the phenotype is the effect that is seen.
With the knowledge of molecular genetics superimposed on these basic concepts a gene would basically be a well defined part of the genome (DNA) which is responsible for a molecular trait. Alleles are the actual sequence variants of this genomic region (not considering translocations here).
b. Incorrect. Trait is a qualitative feature. Phenotype is the manifestation of a trait. Genes and genotypes are the causes of a trait and not traits themselves.
c. Incorrect. Same as above.
This scheme would not be inheritable (RNA editing/alternative splicing/PTM etc).
Both genes and alleles are sequences of DNA. A gene will code for a trait, say hair colour, while an allele will be the variants of that gene (say the alleles coding for blonde, brown, black, and red hair).
It's almost like cookbooks: two cookbooks (the DNA) might have a recipe (gene) for bread but they use slightly different instructions (alleles) resulting in different breads (traits).
