Canadian ISP Group Files Second Petition Against Bell Canada - InternetNews.
The Canadian Association of Internet Providers (CAIP) has filed a second application with the CRTC against Bell Canada.
The application asks that Bell Canada file a tariff for the provision of 1 Megabit Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) Access Service, including separate tariffs for each of the network components and services that form a part of the ADSL access service.
CAIP contends that, unless it has received regulatory forbearance for a particular service, Bell Canada is required to file tariffs for all of the services that it provides to its customers--including to its own affiliates such as Sympatico.
"Their failure to do so, after nearly four months, is a serious breach of Bell's obligations under the Telecom Act," said CAIP president, Ron Kawchuk.
"The CRTC must act quickly. The Internet is rapidly evolving to advanced high-speed applications and services. There is an urgent need to ensure that high-speed access is available to all Internet service providers and not just to affiliates of the former monopoly provider of the last mile."
Bell Nexxia, another Bell affiliate, has recently offered ISPs one alternative, but it falls seriously short in CAIP's view.
CAIP is Canada's national association of Internet service providers, with over 150 members in nine provinces. | 2019-04-21T09:07:14 | http://www.internetnews.com/bus-news/article.php/90931/Canadian+ISP+Group+Files+Second+Petition+Against+Bell+Canada.htm |
It’s not just about supporting Natural Therapy; it’s all about supporting Health.
“How can we support health, and how can patients be best treated with the best possible outcomes”?
The obvious answer is that Natural Complementary Medicine needs to be part of the whole medical system for the benefit of patients.
long waiting lists in Hospitals, not enough Doctors, consultations too short, insufficient answers and support for the patients, side- effects from prescription drugs.
At no time am I saying that there is anything wrong with the medical system, it does exactly what it is suppose to do, unfortunately, for many patients, that’s not enough. That’s why we need Complementary Medicine and Active Prevention to take the burden of the medical system.
Most of the efforts of the medical system are in Fighting a disease, if no disease can be diagnosed, the patient may get the all clear, but unfortunately their symptoms may persist.
If a disease is diagnosed, the next step is a prescription drug, and usually no further advice as to better ones health is given.
These 2 efforts combined, should be the perfect marriage, and a constructive way to help a patient receive the best of both worlds.
To make sure that patients have trust in the complementary field of medicine, proper training through accredited colleges or universities are essential.
It also needs to be pointed out, esp to the general public, that people should only ever consult a practitioner who is accredited with one of the main Natural Therapy Associations.
Unfortunately, a lot of the criticism against Natural Therapies are generated by an over-generalisation of Natural Therapies; eg; the typical statement , “all Natural Therapies are quackery”.
Natural Therapies are essential in modern Healthcare, one needs to know a little bit more about the difference within the primary field of Medicine, eg; about General Medical Practitioners and Complementary Medicine Practitioners.
I think it is important to stress the fact, that Natural Therapies are complementary and work in Active Prevention and individual holistic healthcare.
… and simply for this reason, there is, or should be, no competition with the medical system.
A general practitioner within a standard consultation has hardly the time to treat the patient in a holistic way, or giving diet and lifestyle advice. A patient presenting with multiple symptoms often is treated only for the main symptom.
If all medical tests come back negative, which should be good news, the patients continue to have their symptoms, and more or less are forced to see a Natural Therapist.
Naturopathy has changed a lot over the years, these days a new patient within a 1 hour consultation, will get a thorough physical examination, will have to fill out a comprehensive questionnaire about past present and family medical history, in fact all information which are needed to get a holistic medical picture of a patient to prevent possible health issues.
In most cases the practitioner will check the patient’s prescription and over the counter drug list, as all to often drugs are taken which are not compatible with each other.
The initial therapy outline will usually be comprised of specific lifestyle modification, diet advice, stress level reduction advice, and possible some nutritional supplements, herbal medication or a manual therapy such as massage or chiropractic.
The practitioner may also suggest a class or group activity for individual patients who have individual requirements to be practiced on a long term basis. Tai Chi – Yoga – Meditation – Weight loss and Nutrition classes are excellent for Active Preventative Health Improvements.
All measures taken by a Natural Therapist are to support the patient’s health, the main emphasis is in educating the patient how to prevent further decline of health or possible disease all together. Some treatment is aimed at preventing or lessens side effects from drug therapy.
The medical system, to be efficient and to support patients, needs to embrace complementary therapy.
It has to be recognise that most patients come to a Natural Therapist, because they like to feel and be healthy, and they want answers they don’t get from within the medical system.
If Doctors would provide all the care a patient needs, patients wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Years ago, I handed out a questionnaire to patients to find out why they consulted a Natural Therapist.
Most patients told me anyhow, but I thought it would be a good idea to collect “evidence”, and I had planned to make that into a book. As things go … I didn’t do it ..
Many Patients are not satisfied with normal general medical practice.
After a consultation with a medical Doctor, patients didn’t feel better and their problems were not resolved by medical practice.
After a consultation with a Natural Therapist, the patients felt better with improved quality of life and often even cured, because they understood their problems and had learned how to live a healthier life.
By the way, as a professional Natural Therapist, it is important to refer the patients back to the Medical practitioner, esp if further blood test can reveal that symptoms have been resolved and health had improved.
I call on everyone, patients, natural and medical practitioners, to voice their support for Natural Therapy on social media.
Fortunately there are many Medical practitioners who recognise the value of complementary therapy.
Furthermore, Natural Therapists are as disgusted as Medical Practitioners if it comes to fraudulent practices or dubious natural curative claims.
Let is be also said, that in every profession, no matter which, are those few who usually for monetary reasons have become corrupted.
And finally, we welcome any constructive criticism or suggestion how to improve Natural Therapy practices or the Medical System for that matter. | 2019-04-18T10:27:56 | https://www.usenature.com/registry/supporting-natural-therapies/ |

Try to think of a time in your life when the U.S. government was not militarily involved somewhere in the world. It's a sad fact that a vast majority of us can't recall such a time. Check out this chronological list U.S. military interventions throughout the years.
That's a very disturbing list, don't you think? You just scroll, and scroll, and scroll down the page until you reach Syria and the modern day.
When war is all that a population knows to exist, the idea of peace becomes an anomaly. We all know that people are habitual. We cling to our habits (good and bad) and resist the unknown where change can occur.
Well, in America the unknown has become peace! How sad to think that the idea of peace actually terrifies so many people both in and out of government.
One can at least understand why governments would want to avoid peace. As Randolph Bourne famously pointed: "War is the health of the state." During times of war, government capitalizes on the fear that it generates and concomitantly seizes unbelievable powers for itself.
We can at least see the benefit to government and those with a lust for power and the ability to dominate others. But what's in it for the people?
War -- after all, what is it that the people get?
Why -- widows, taxes, wooden legs and debt.
Sounds like a raw deal for the people. And yet, Americans have sat idly by, and have turned a blind eye to an incredible list of military interventions over the years.
More war, less liberty .... More war, less liberty .... If it happens over an administration or two, it can be spun as government losing its way to a few bad apples.
But 100+ years of more war, less liberty?
If you have a fixation or desire to dominate others (and lots of people do), such a system seems almost too good to be true.
You'd climb any mountain to clutch the reins of such a system. It's like taking candy (or in this case, liberty) from a baby.
England's Lord North proposed to King George III the idea of sending a commission to the American colonies to negotiate and possibly resolve the disputes.
Confederate President Jefferson Davis appointed three commissioners to negotiate with the Union. They would reach Washington on Mar. 5, 1861, the day after Abraham Lincoln’s inauguration.
Lincoln refused to see the commissioners, refused to negotiate any peace terms, and furthermore, refused to recognize the Confederate government.
The Japanese, in an unprecedented diplomatic move, offered to send Prince Fumimaro Konoye, the Prime Minister, and a member of the royal family to the U.S. to negotiate personally with FDR in a desperate effort to preserve peace. FDR flatly refused such a meeting.
There is a tremendous amount of upside to war for those who are in power. It provides them with an opportunity to swipe away liberties at an exponential pace. The populace will give up virtually everything.
Is it any wonder that those in power run away from even the prospect of peace?
We're soon about to have a new president, and he's coming into office with a lot of expectations. The outgoing president had high expectations as well. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, but ended up invading 7 countries. He also became the very first U.S. President to be at continuous war during his entire 8 years in office.
Will this new president keep the boots of war firmly pressed against American throats? Will he continue the asphyxiation of the American Dream?
So far, when it comes to the insane idea of confronting a nuclear Russia, he has shown admirable qualities of restraint and cordial behavior. Will that continue through his presidential term? Or will he keep the century old American tradition of military adventurism overseas?
The world is much bigger than Russia. There are plenty of other places that America can mire itself. There are other nuclear powers (like China) where trouble can be fomented. The president-elect has already shown that he has a bone to pick with the Chinese.
Are we merely exchanging trouble with one nuclear power for another?
Let's hope that Donald Trump doesn't repeat the mistakes of history. Let's hope that he doesn't become just another bad example for future generations to study.
Wouldn't it be nice for Americans to someday be born into a life of liberty and peace?
That was the original idea in the 'land of the free'.
A return to a foreign policy of non-interventionism and peace is desperately needed. | 2019-04-24T11:55:00 | http://www.ronpaullibertyreport.com/archives/war-the-rejection-of-peace |
I have an open support issue where the wired speed through my Amplifi goes down to 100/100 mbit connection despite it being 1gb/1gb. If I disconnect the ethernet cable on the wan side which connects to my fibre converter I get full speed back for a while. Trying to figure out the culprit on my own is near impossible as I can't see the link speed of the WAN port so I would suggest implementing a status gui in the app (and maybe on the display) for link speed of the ethernet ports. The hardware seems advanced enough to implement thing like packet count etc on the different interfaces. | 2019-04-22T22:03:09 | https://community.amplifi.com/topic/1409/link-status-and-speed-of-ethernet-ports-on-lan-and-wan-side/1 |
The Edwards Corona 18 is located about 5 miles from the older 15 plex in north corona, this is south corona.
They are keeping all of the original Edwards design exactly as it was because (or so I've heard) the plans had allready been inspected and approved by the city or something like that.
I went to the Corona 18 opening weekend, and what a nice theatre. You can tell that the theatre used both Regal and Edwards elements, but stayed true to an Edwards. Its also a very simple design, 9 theatres down one hall, 9 down the other. One hall on each side only.
But here is some interesting new theatre news.
Lowe's is going to build a new theatre in the Los Angeles Area. I dont think they have ever built one under their banner(the last one was possibly Universal when it was still Cineplex Odeon). I find it good since Monterey Park has lacked a theatre since Edwards closed the 3-plex here back in 98 or so, and really that was the only theatre around here.
The primary anchor for the development Loews Theater has entered into a management agreement with the Kam Sang Development Company to show first run movies at the new center which covers 65,000 square feet and will hold 14 screens.
It sounds like the Corona 18 may look a lot like the Alhambra Renaissance 14 - Alhambra, CA. The Alhambra theatre freaked me out because it was totally "Edwardian" on the outside but you walked in, and there was Edwards carpet, but just about everything else was Regal.
Ive been to both, the Corona Edwards is a lot nicer on the inside but has some feel of a Regal.
It was originally scheduled to open at the same time as the Edwards Corona Crossing 18 last month.
The Idaho Stateman recently announced that two new theatres are planned for Meridian.
Regal plans a 16-screen, 2700 seater Edwards at Eagle and Upstick Roads.
Hallett Cinemas LLC plans an 18-screen, 3358 seater north of Overland Road between Locust Grove and Eagle Roads.
A new cinema in downtown Boise was previously announced.
It all started when the late James Edwards II used to visit Boise on his way to Sun Valley and saw opportunity, away from his usual Orange County/LA kingdom. He opened the Edwards Boise, then in Ammon and finally Nampa.
Jeff: Kudos to Loews Cineplex for stepping up to the plate and actually BUILDING something in So Cal. I still say that they need to put their Marina Del Rey Cineplex out of it's misery. That place has definitely lost some luster. And how about uprgrading the sound at Universal 18 to all of the digital sound formats instead of just the very iffy DTS?
Richard: I'm a Regal Crown Club member but I had no idea they had an actual newsletter. Did you have to sign up online to get the letter? If so, post the link please. Thanks!
Chris - I cant beleive they are actually committing to a project.
Supposedly ground breaking should be next summer, with opening in 2006 the way it looks.
Ive also been to their ex Cineplex Odeon theatres. Marina Del Rey does need to be remodeled or something.
I think Lowes needs to have a bigger presence in LA. LA is home of Pacific, AMC and Regal.
Chris, you had to put your email on the application when you signed up. (Had you done that, you would have also earned 10 extra points!) There is a little checkbox tha allows you to opt out of third party mailings. Go down o your local REG and ask to speak with a manager. They should be able to add your email address to your account (I think).
Hey everyone this is a really kool site for cinema dorks like me, but I really like it. Here is a preview of Regel Entertainment Group new builds and expansions (through 2005) also when the are scheduled to open (subject to change). These are all definetly going up/already under construction. And how they will be branded.
The ones with out dates are yet to be determined, but probally not before 2006.
I was talking to a friend of mine at AMC.
- Del Amo 16 in torrance.
TORONTO (CP) - Cineplex Galaxy LP plans to build three more multi-screen theatres in Ontario, in addition to two others slated for construction in 2005 and 2006, the limited partnership announced Friday.
Cineplex Galaxy LP, which currently operates 86 theatres in six provinces, said it will build new theatres in Aurora, Burlington and Ottawa. They are in addition to two previously announced projects in Brockville, Ont. and Brossard, Que. The 10-screen theatre to be built in Aurora, Ont., is being developed with Morguard REIT and scheduled to open this fall.
Meanwhile, Trinity Developments is co-developing a seven-screen theatre in the Ottawa suburb of Barrhaven due to open in the fall while a 12-screen complex, being developed with Riocan, will open in the spring of 2006.
about damn time someone mentioned Tyler Galleria/Tyler Mall in Riverside. Cool.
I keep hearing that Fontana,Ca is trying to build a new theatre to compete with the existing Ultrastar 8 by the 10 freeway.
And that Arizona's Harkins Theatres is trying to enter SoCal. | 2019-04-22T00:41:32 | https://forum.cinematour.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=000073;p=3 |

Liz and Leland have been together for 8 years and have decided to get married! They told me that they only have 3 pictures of themselves together. Well, that has now changed!
We met Saturday afternoon to put an end to this lack of pictures craziness.
Pivo, the wonder dog and their first child, joined us.
Liz and Leland chose Larz Anderson Park in Brookline for their engagement session. I love it there. There are lots of different textures, colors, and architectural details to use. However, I think Liz would have liked it even better if there was a vintage pink Cadillac parked somewhere. Maybe I can work on that.
At the top of the hill there was a great view of Boston. It was a perfect day for viewing the skyline.
They have also picked an awesome venue for their wedding next March; The Metropolitan Waterworks Museum in Chestnut Hill. I am so excited about photographing their wedding there. Look it up, it's really cool!
Well, they have a lot more than 3 photos of themselves now. I hope I have reversed the trend and they keep taking more. If not, no worries, I plan to take plenty at their wedding next spring. Thanks for a wonderful afternoon, Liz and Leland!
Totally agree with Nancy's comment.. | 2019-04-23T06:11:21 | https://www.amfordphotography.com/blog/photos-to-start-a-new-chapter-of-life-together |
THE club first contacted Transport for London about the switch more than two years ago.

Ben Williamson bagged a brace as Cambridge inflicted a first defeat on new Leyton Orient manager Kevin Nolan.
Williamson capitalised on Frazer Shaw's tame back pass to round O's keeper Alex Cisak and slot the ball home.
The visitors struck again through Williamson's low drive before Orient pulled one back through substitute Armand Gnanduillet's neat finish.
Jimmy Spencer buried Williamson's cross on his debut to seal victory for the U's, who climb to 11th in League Two.
Nolan had started with two victories for the O's after being appointed on 21 January. His side drop three places back to ninth, two points above Cambridge.
"We were very sloppy. You don't want to gift a side who've come to your turf a goal and that's what we did.
"I've said to the lads, when you're playing at this level you can't afford to make mistake after mistake after mistake because if you do that you're going to get punished and we did.
"I don't think it was through Cambridge's great play, I think it was through us not doing what we've done over the last two games."

Who benefits from reduced sales taxes?
The effect of sales taxes is hotly debated. These taxes on consumption raise revenue for local governments, but do they also stymie business and hurt consumers? In America, sales taxes are collected by municipalities and states and generally added to a good’s sale price at checkout. In many other countries, like France, “value-added tax” (VAT) is included in the stated sale price and collected by the national government.
A new study by the National Bureau of Economic Research looks at who benefits when a sales tax is repealed. In this case, in 2009 France reduced the VAT collected in sit-down restaurants from 19.6 percent to 5.5 percent (which happens to be the VAT charged at take-out spots). Policymakers who cut taxes often argue that the money firms or individuals would have paid will now be spent in other parts of the economy. In the case of firms, this is supposed to stimulate higher wages or the hiring of more workers; for individuals, increased spending on consumer goods.
Restaurant owners benefited the most from the tax cut, pocketing around 41 percent of the savings. Employees received about 25 percent of the cut without increasing hours; restaurant suppliers received around 16 percent. Consumers received the remaining 18 percent, as menu prices fell about 2 percent after the reform. The authors were not able to measure any change in food quality. The authors did not research the wider effect on society from the fall in tax revenues. | 2019-04-19T06:28:55 | https://www.speroforum.com/a/DEUKUUOKGI37/82181-Who-benefits-from-reduced-sales-taxes |
Many of the top rugby clubs in Baravullin PA37 1 and surrounding areas, are now turning to the construction of artificial turfpitches to prevent the postponement of competitive matches and training in wet weather conditions. Artificial grass pitch builder often convert natural grass pitches in stadiums, schools, sport clubs etc. into 3G pitches. This work is completed by excavating down to the required depth, installation of edges haunched on concrete followed by geotextile membrane and MOT type 1 sub base.

The country's Environment and Forestry Cabinet Secretary Keriako Tobiko this week opened a meeting of the negotiators of the Sixth Global Environmental Outlook (GEO-6) report.
Kenya's Environment and Forestry CS Keriako Tobiko addressing the Sixth Global Environmental Outlook (GEO-6) at UN Environment.
The four day meeting whose theme is "Healthy Planets, Healthy People"is being held at UN Environment headquarters in Nairobi and is attended by over 100 delegates from United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) member states.
"Policies should be based both on science and empirical data, but, often times policies are made on the basis of political convenience and sometimes on vested interests with no reference to science," Tobiko said.
"A wealth of knowledge is at risk of disappearing because it is disregarded or ignored by scientists and policy makers. This knowledge has further not been documented neither is it being passed on by the older to the younger generation thus subjecting it to the danger of extinction," Tobiko told delegates. | 2019-04-25T23:44:24 | https://allafrica.com/stories/201901230545.html |

For about twenty-five years, The Outfitter has groomed the cross country ski trails at Birchwood – a large, wooded subdivision north of Harbor Springs. Our good family friends, owners of The Outfitter for twenty-three years, began the ritual and we continue it. With the same snowmobiles.
Grooming trails truly is a labor of love – an exercise that emphasises the reward at the end of the tunnel. The end result is awesome for skiers: pefectly laid-out tracks that ribbon around through the trees over a golf course and through the woods. One of the fascinating aspects of the grooming is the lack of residue left from the process. If you ski the trail right after the machines have puttered by, you smell the fumes of exhaust. If you wait 30 minutes, you have corduroy and cold, crisp air. And the craters.
Crater is the technical term for the ginormous, down to the grass, utterly ugly chaos that results from getting a snowmobile (sled) stuck. Which happens a lot. It all seems so relaxing and, well, fun. Firing up a sled to putter around at 7 mph through the woods on a beautiful sunny day is kind of romantic, sort of. And it has its moments, when your thumb isn’t completely racked from holding the throttle at 7 mph, your bum isn’t soaking wet, the exhaust isn’t atmosphering you like mosquitoes in Alaska and you aren’t buried on your side in a six-foot snowdrift. You have to redefine “fun” when your essential tools include an axe, a shovel, two dozen shear pins, extra food and flares.
But it is fun, and it is so rewarding when a skier stops in the shop just to thank you for making the trails so skiable. Some folks argue that busting through the snow forging your own path is the only way to ski – but I like both. I love being able to take the kids and the dogs behind our house, making tracks wherever we go. But I also love zipping along on fresh laid tracks on my skiiny skis, seeing how fast I can go on the flats before my lungs burn.
Most of the trail setting up here in Northern Michigan is done by volunteers simply out of love of the sport. Nothing makes them happier than a skier going out of his or her way to thank them for a job well done, craters and all.
You guys are my heroes! I’m always so grateful to whoever has gone through the effort to groom a trail because I know it can be an endless and exhausting job as the winter unfolds. I never even considered the racked thumb!
I have always loved both groomed trails and blazing my own, but over the years I have found skiing a groomed trail to be fluid, exhilarating and at the same time meditative. I love getting in that zone where you are flying through the woods, hearing only the sounds of the trees creaking, your skis almost knowing the way. I’m crossing my fingers that this snow holds all season long and that we’re all able to get in a lot of cross country. Thanks again for putting in such an effort to groom the trails. I’m sure you must know that for every person who stops by to thank you, there are twenty singing your praises as they glide through the countryside. But your post has reminded me of how important it is to know who puts in the time grooming the trails we love and what it means to seek them out to say thank you.
thanks for the effort Josh, you are an un-sung hero among men with skinny skis and tight lycra pants. great post, very funny but all too true. | 2019-04-18T18:37:38 | https://community.mynorth.com/2008/12/groomin-trails/ |

The Storm is a hybrid design incorporating an ultra-narrow underwater hull shape, with extra volume above the waterline. Designed by Mike Giblin this canoe is made for advanced paddlers to go fast downwind.
The goal was to build a canoe that would combine the transcendent performance of higher volume canoes in big downwind conditions without the hefty drag penalty that accompanied those designs.
The canoe, while challenging to master, can completely overturn your ideas of what a canoe can do. It is a craft that reveals it’s strengths over time, often in astonishing ways. It is extremely responsive, the agility of this canoe is without match, allowing the rider to react instantly to dynamic seas.
It performs well in flat water, loves small long period bumps, but lags upwind. It is suited for above average weight experienced paddlers.
The Storm is the first outrigger canoe to be molded in one piece, simultaneously eliminating excess weight and creating a stronger canoe. The Storm is built with Ozone’s innovative monocoque 100% carbon construction. Lighter, faster, stronger. | 2019-04-18T12:21:18 | http://mikegiblincanoes.com/project/storm/ |
Technology and innovation both play a critical role in creating a vibrant U.S. manufacturing environment, resulting in better products and more efficient processes. The industry appears to agree. A recent study found that 66% of warehouses plan to expand technology investments by 2018. Today, a technology transformation is underway driven by the convergence of ubiquitous mobile connectivity, computing on demand via the cloud and the recent emergence of entirely new classes of connected things. The number of Internet-connected “things” today is about 14 billion, and we’ll see that go north of 50 billion over the next five years.
For manufacturers, it is all about improving productivity on the plant floor with technology that reduces task time and physical strain, while fulfilling customer demand effectively and at an acceptable cost. But in order for this transformation to reach its full potential, manufacturers need to also focus on improving their production capability in addition to enhancing their warehousing and logistics operations. The more connected they are, the more effective they will become.
Manufacturing facilities and their associated supply chains are effectively becoming platforms where workers, buildings, assets, inventory and infrastructures are more connected, more intelligent, and able to provide information across and from the edge in real time. The challenge is to bring all of this disparate information together into an intelligent enterprise platform that allows it to be utilized for making business decisions that drive real-time user experiences and actions. We see the convergence and coordination of fixed intelligent infrastructure with the legacy mobile edge as the next wave that will transform the experiences within the enterprise of the future.
What Does an Intelligent Enterprise Look Like?
Here’s a look at a few of the most compelling benefits that the intelligent enterprise will drive.
Increasing operational visibility with innovative technology and analytics is a very important part of creating value and driving efficiencies. In this pursuit, the industry vision is to increase the number of barcoded items received at a warehouse or distribution center from 67% today to 84% by 2018. It is also to ensure that supplier and partner processes meet the requirements—and properly utilize the capabilities—of GS1, GDSN, ASN and RFID. This helps support more highly prioritized picking and storage processes and enables stronger collaboration across the supply chain.
But for it all to work as intended, operations and IT leaders must be on the same page with regard to technology systems and business processes. And in most organizations, differences abound. However, bringing both disciplines together with a common vision is one of the most crucial goals over the next five years.
In the new warehousing world, customer satisfaction is seen as a major corporate objective and differentiator. Fast and accurate customer-driven requirements are playing a more important role in the packing, staging, loading and shipping functions, taking advantage of processes such as load optimization and performance monitoring. A wide variety of technology solutions are poised to help warehouse operations provide outbound material handling to maximize efficiency, reduce costs and enhance customer satisfaction.
Packing stations can be equipped with mobile wireless computers, scanning and RFID devices, and fixed-mount kiosk solutions to increase speed and efficiency while reducing errors and damage. Packages and containers will be marked with intelligent and active tags. Workers will utilize wearable devices to see real-time updates on the next steps in their workflow. These advanced capabilities will help meet aggressive targets. Robust wireless outdoor coverage of RFID and WLAN will integrate dock and yard operations with the warehouse, providing end-to-end efficiency. Integrated video capabilities will be used for quality control and proof of compliance.
Today, many manufacturers are asking for holistic solutions to address supply chain challenges. Companies in the logistics sector, for example, are highly sophisticated and very complex, so simply inserting a piece of technology here or there is not nearly as impactful as delivering a solution for an entire supply chain, end-to-end.
One of the challenges customers face in logistics or large-scale transportation of materials is packing efficiency. How do you optimize a trailer load, for example, to improve both worker efficiencies and logistics costs? With advanced analytics, companies now have the ability to accurately assess the state of a trailer, how well workers are loading vehicles and identify errors in real-time to prevent any downstream impact. All this information is immediately available to managers—and in some cases, front-line workers—so decisions and adjustments can be made in real-time. The potential impact on organizations of all sizes and industries? Revolutionary.
These are exciting times in an exciting space. With the next-generation technologies, a solutions-based architecture will effectively turn the enterprise into a platform used to drive outcomes. Information will be captured in real-time from warehouses, distribution centers, hubs, depots and delivery networks and coordinated with humans who will be connected via traditional devices and emerging wearable systems to enable new levels of operational efficiency.
As technology allows for better quantification of the environment, and the context and location of workers, we will see the adoption of various wearable technologies in the enterprise space enabling a “frictionless” workflow. Workers will waste no time interacting with technology. It will become integrated into their experience and will seamlessly direct and inform them, increasing productivity, reducing errors and streamlining training.
Manufacturers are investing in a wide variety of technologies and solutions to upgrade existing systems throughout their operations—to gain the visibility they need to transform how they work. They must address a number of growing business issues, from changing market dynamics, heightened competition and shorter product lifecycles to a demand for the faster delivery of increasingly customized products. To succeed, they need to find a way to cut costs and increase efficiencies without impacting quality, customer service or product availability. The intelligent enterprise—and the visibility it provides—will be a defining enabler.

The neglect of our military infrastructure impacts not only our security but also the needs of our service families and the communities that support them.
Our defense infrastructure not only supports our military missions and readiness. It also supports our 1.1 million service members, their families and the communities they call home. But a five-year period of unprecedented turmoil for our defense budget has seriously damaged the military and our defense installations.
No one understands this more than the members of the Association of Defense Communities -- more than 250 communities and 35 states that host and support our nation's 400 defense facilities. A new administration and Congress provide an opportunity for swift action to end sequestration and begin the critical work of rebuilding our military and defense infrastructure. We must remove all obstacles, including arcane, bureaucratic budget-scoring rules, and focus on getting the job done. With an on-the-ground perspective, America's defense communities stand ready to support this undertaking.
To begin with, we need to reinvest in the basic components of our military installations -- roads, airfields, buildings and utilities. We need to enhance the resiliency of our installations and protect the land and air space of our training ranges and facilities for current and future missions. And we need to ensure that we are providing great places for our service members and their families to live, work and learn.
A ready list of defense infrastructure projects exists. For example, our system of early-warning radar sites in the northern continental tier is on the verge of collapse, directly impacting our security. With quick action, investments in these kinds of critically needed infrastructure improvements could become a reality in a matter of months, creating tens of thousands of jobs.
Just as we invest in our defense infrastructure, we must take care of the people who protect us -- our service members and their families. Our defense communities work tirelessly to ensure that military families have great places to live, learn and prosper. They have invested hundreds of millions of local and state dollars to ensure that our bases are sustained. As a nation, we must support them in return, leveraging these investments to develop transportation connections outside the fence, high-quality schools, health-care options and access to other services our service families need and deserve.
This reinvestment must be driven not only by strategy but by innovation that ensures that we are doing things smarter and more efficiently. Partnerships between the private and public sectorsare critical to achieving this goal, and these partners stand ready to make it happen. When the Air Force needed to increase mission capability and reduce costs, for example, the state of Oklahoma and the city of Enid came together to expand the municipal airport facilities and runway to serve Vance Air Force Base.
We also must not forget our nation's former defense infrastructure, the hundreds of military facilities in every part of the country that have been through the Base Realignment and Closing process and offer the potential for job creation. Many sit fallow as they wait for the federal government to transfer land or address environmental issues. More than 9,700 former defense sites present an opportunity to enhance local job growth if the private sector can collaborate with the federal government to focus existing resources. We should leverage the full power of the federal government to turn these unique sites into robust engines of economic growth.
The communities, states and industry partners that support our military bases -- whether active or not -- understand the value of our defense infrastructure both inside and outside the gate. Strong communities are an essential ingredient to the strong military that keeps us all safe. | 2019-04-19T12:58:10 | https://www.governing.com/gov-institute/voices/col-need-rebuild-military-infrastructure-defense-communities.html |

Westport likes to share resources that we think are relevant to our industry, natural gas. As the natural gas industry gathers momentum, more informational and educational resources are developing. CNGNow.com, is one such resource that aims to promote and inform about benefits of “clean, affordable, abundant… natural gas.”.
As the info-graphic explains, natural gas has become increasingly popular for both its economic and environmental benefits. This is encouraging new infrastructure to be created to support the growing demand for these vehicles, but it’s not at full capacity yet. While the development of CNG stations plays catch-up to the demand for CNG vehicles, CNGnow has created a “CNG fuel finder”smartphone application that allows the user to find the nearest CNG station, check prices, map routes to the stations, and receive the most up-to-date information about CNG fueling stations.

At this point, I think we will still benefit from having some face-to-face time devoted to this these issues, even if many people feel we shouldn't take the DTLS proposal wholesale.
Having said that, the recent re-statement of the issues as 1) stream 0 and 2) the layering question seems most appropriate. EKR, can you make sure your presentation focuses on them, with DTLS as one possible solution? I'll adjust the title in the agenda accordingly.
> coming back to this initial mail, I believe that it is clear that people are interested in the problem(s) that this proposal is addressing but not the actually solution as there is a strong feeling that it is too late for such a fundamental change in the process.
> I just looked at the draft agenda and it (still) say "QUIC over DTLS Proposal". Is there a plan to change this and level this up to a more higher level discussion on the problems or do people still want to use the time to discuss this concrete proposal?
>> Thanks for the proposal, EKR. We'll track this as <https://github.com/quicwg/base-drafts/issues/1165>;.

>> I know folks need a chance to read and digest, but it would be extremely helpful if we could have some initial discussion on-list now. Please focus on the technical merit of the proposal, clarifying questions, and statements of support/lack thereof.
>> Assuming it's still a topic of interest in two weeks, we'll schedule some time to discuss it in London. EKR, could you please submit a presentation (say, max 20 minutes, plus discussion time afterwards) ASAP?

Family, Stamping and FOOD!: Nature Alphabet: Letter "B"
This week we were learning about the letter "B". Our week was a little caliwhompus since we spent all day Wednesday in the hospital. But we managed to take a little nature walk around our house on Friday. Unfortunately, it's been very, very dry lately. In my experience, bugs and creepy-crawlies like to hide in moist places under rocks and sticks. We searched everywhere and could not find any bugs. We found ants, but I was hoping to find some beetles, roly-polies and other bugs. We didn't even see any birds! I was a little disappointed. Next week we'll plan on going back to my parent's house since they have all kinds of good walking areas with lots of wildlife.
Maybe we'll find more nature items during next week's Nature Walk.
Great post, and thanks for linking with my blog hop! It's amazing how much you did find even with the dry conditions, and two "B" words... berries and bugs. :) I'm looking forward to seeing what you find at your parent's!
Such beautiful pictures! What a fun time.
A wonderful activity to do with your daughter. Nature has so many things to teach us. Beautiful photos!
oh wow, the butterflies are beautiful! marvelous shots!
What a great nature walk!
Great photos! Love the zinnias! I used to love taking walks like that with my boys when they were little.
Thank you for the nature walk!
Beautiful butterfly and flower pictures. I felt like I had gone on the nature walk! | 2019-04-18T10:49:16 | http://familystampingfood.blogspot.com/2010/09/nature-alphabet-letter-b.html |
“Our relationship is in a rut lately.” “There is no excitement nor is any movement.” It is normal for a couple in a long-term relationship goes through a relationship rut. Don’t you think you want to revive your relationship?
It you want to stay in a happy and enjoyable relationship forever while it does not have to be lovey-dovey, let’s please your partner with a gift out of the ordinary sometimes. If both of you have a job, you two might be often too busy to meet.
Then, you might wonder if you have to do something? A difference in the level of love between you two makes you worried about the future. In such a case, give him a surprising gift on his birthday or anniversary of you two and confirm the bond between you and your boyfriend, again.
Giving him a present he likes, sharing a piece of cake, staying over at his place, etc. Even if you cannot spend time with him, there are more things you can do. Then, on precious days that are rare, let’s give your significant other a gift and confirm love. It will probably help your fizzling relationship start reviving. This time, add a new twist to a gift for him and make a breakthrough to revive your relationship.
Let’s Write a Letter of Good Memories!
Let’s Give Him a Power Stone Bracelet as a Gift!
Let’s Go Shopping for Him!
Let’s Have a Surprise Party for Him!
Let’s Prepare Him a Bento Box Lunch!
Let’s Send a Relaxing Gift to Him!
People have feelings of excitement at the beginning of a new relationship. Then, fresh feelings would decline as time goes by and your relationship would be in a rut. To keep your relationship alive, it would be a good idea to review the path two of you have taken.
The first gift for him is a letter. There are many who send a birthday card. This time, write a longer letter. Try to recall what has happened till now and describe things you were pleased with or enjoyed. Mentioning in a style as “do you remember this and that?” could be an idea.
Those memories may warm your partner’s heart as well. The key essence of this letter is “appreciation.” Write down your appreciation his assistance to you as “thank you for doing this back then,” or “I am grateful for your making time for me always,” and so on. Even appreciation for small things he has done for you will do.
Unfortunately, it is hard to notice your small happiness. Even an event way back in time is OK to mention. He will probably feel deep affection for you. Upon writing the letter, include as many of pleasant events and appreciation as possible.
Adding apologies as “I’ sorry about the time,” will help convey your deep feeling to him. Send a letter differs from the past, this time. If you and your boyfriend are pretty busy, probably it will work only to send such letter to him.
Do you know power stones help improve your romantic relationship? Some people have no idea what power stones are. Power stones are all natural and have mystic power. There are many kinds of power stones. Accordingly, there should be a perfect stone for improvement of your relationship with your boyfriend.
“Turquoise” and “Moonstone” are effective to grow the bond between you and your significant other stronger. The effects of power stones are incredible like improvement of fortune or making wishes come true, which are all attractive to women.
For a gift, a necklace, ring, or bracelet with a Turquoise or Moonstone is highly recommended. Matching things for both of you will work better. You who had no interests in power gemstones, try one as a gift for your boyfriend. He, then, would probably love you more.
In a long-term relationship, fresh feelings are decreasing as you go out for a date to a same place all the time. In that case, go somewhere a little further on a date. You go buy tickets to a magic kingdom for two, get some travel leaflets to make a plan, etc. Just talking about such date will be enjoyable.
Therefore, try to go further on a date, which would surely be an excellent gift for him. If you want to give him something to remember, it is a good idea to buy something secretly while traveling. An overnight trip to hot spring is highly recommended for couples in a long-term relationship.
How about talking about the future of you two in a relaxing peaceful atmosphere? In a private mixed bath, you can enjoy some time just two of you alone. Those whose relationship is in rut now, try a trip for such time alone with your partner.
Do you know what your boyfriend really likes? Since you have been with him long, there are some things about him you cannot see. Thus, let’s take him to a shopping for himself.
Generally, the boyfriend just accompany his girlfriend when a couple goes shopping. Therefore, going shopping and picking up a gift only for him would sometimes be enjoyable.
Furthermore, try to have a mutual hobby together. Matching accessories, a photo frame, even matching missangas lately are popular. Go to shopping together with your boyfriend. Maybe you will get to know his different aspects which you do not know.
Have you ever thrown a surprise party for your boyfriend? Or, vice versa? Yes, maybe on his/your birthday or on other special days. Yet, probably never on an ordinary day.
At the beginning of a new relationship, every day was surprise. As time goes by, however, such surprise decreases. That is why, a surprise present for your boyfriend on an ordinary day is recommended.
It will be better if you do this at time when there is no special days. Research, in advance, what he really wants and arrange a delivery of the gift to his home, or hand him the present in the end of a date. You can think of variety of surprise. It is better to include your sincere appreciation in the gift. Try to arrange a surprise event for him.
Have you made your boyfriend a bento box lunch? If you live with him, you may have. For guys, this bento seems special potion which they can tell how much they are loved.
You who have never made it, who make it every day, or who can rarely see your boyfriend, try to make your boyfriend a bento box lunch with your sincere love. Homemade dishes by women has mystic power.
Guys sense such power somehow. As adding a heart shaped seaweed, making many kinds of Onigiri (rice ball), make a lunch with your own hands and avoid using frozen foods. He will probably be crazy about you.
When your boyfriends are too busy to see you, and thus, seems tired, you become worried about his condition. In such case, sending him a relaxing gift, which would break out your relationship ruts. Especially in winter, hand-knitted scarf or a thermos for warm drink is most recommended.
However, we hardly knit, do we? Many of women lately cannot knit. For those women, scarf that is easy to knit will do. Although it takes time to complete a scarf, guys will be appreciated it from the bottom of their heart.
For a winter gift, a hand-knitted scarf will do. For summer, a scarf will not work. Then, highly recommended is a houseplant. Plants have beneficial effects for healing. Even one pot of plant will make changes. Women who are very attentive to others’ needs are attractive. Maybe he will fall in love with you, again.
Are these tips of assistance to you?
If you are in a long-term relationship, there are some you may try. A romantic relationship is that a couple that encountered miraculously live hands in hands. There are some hard time as well as relaxing time. There also is time when they may go through a relationship rut.
Yet, efforts by either one of a couple bring the spark back to a relationship rut that will move forward. This process needs sincere love; and the amount of love has nothing to do here.
A gift has limitation of its size, there is no limit upon giving love thought more than enough is too much. If you put your love into a present for him, he will notice and be delighted. Be confident and give him your gift for him with your best smile. Wishing you a success in growing your relationship bond stronger.
You appeal to subconscious and become confident “to make definite success” with love charm. This is must-read if you always break up or fail with same pattern.
It's not easy to find happy love! You have to meet the ideal person and like each other anyway. I collected some love charm for women who look for happy love.
You cannot fall in love without meeting a boyfriend. Encounter is the first step and spell is necessary to realize a wish. 7 spells are effective to get a boyfriend.
Can you believe “love spell”? It’s embarrassing? Only for young girls? But you must want to use it to get the success of love after reading this article.
What is a good way of breaking up? Falling out of love can’t be helped even though they loved each other. I’ll tell you ways how to break up without any trouble.
Have you been consulted by someone about love? That is serious or not so much. For you it seems a waste of time, but you can get something for your own love.
There are tons of charms for money, health and study. Many of them are for love because many people wish love. Today I'll introduce 7 best love charm in the world.
If you feel that you are not good at a relationship, love charm is one of the things that support you. The way to a successful love is actually around you.

Raymarine’s new CP200 CHIRP SideVisionTM Sonar is a true breakthrough in fish-finding. By successfully combining, for the first time, the company’s stunning CHIRP sonar with the latest side scanning technology, Raymarine now lets fishers see further and find more fish than ever before.
Combined with Raymarine’s popular CHIRP DownVisionTM sonar, the CP200 gives fishers a huge advantage: delivering crystal clear, 180-degree photo-like pictures of what is under and around their vessel.
Mark Milburn, CEO of New Zealand Raymarine distributor, Lusty & Blundell Ltd.
Raymarine uses two independent, best-in-class, high-performance transducer arrays, with dedicated CHIRP sonar channels, to deliver the clearest, most revealing images of the world below the boat. Anglers can also choose from three preset transducer angles to further enhance these images in either shallow or deeper water.
Sonar will be on display at the Lusty & Blundell stand at the Auckland On Water Boat Show in September.
It will then be available through Lusty & Blundell’s nationwide network of leading marine dealers. | 2019-04-22T06:21:02 | http://www.nzmarine.com/news/item/side-vision-delivers-fishers-greater-scope |
Suwannee High School offers many Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs to students. CTE programs provides student with the academic and technical skills, knowledge and training necessary to succeed in future careers and to become lifelong learners.
Research suggests that CTE can benefit all students, even those whose plans already include four-year college.
Combining CTE with core courses prepares more students for success beyond graduation.
CTE courses develop students’ noncognitive skills better than core courses alone.
Taking CTE courses prevents dropout because it offers practical applications of knowledge that can help students see the relevancy of their instruction.
CTE-related learning improves students’ overall academic motivation and performance. | 2019-04-19T23:03:53 | http://shs.suwannee.k12.fl.us/cte-programs |
Vaping has earned itself the reputation of being the healthiest and purest way to consume cannabis and other herbs without inhaling all the unhealthy carcinogens. We take a look at a few herbs you can add to the mix to get even more out of the experience.
People vape all sorts of plants individually, but not many know that a lot of common herbs can be paired with cannabis to enhance the vaping experience. Herbs like kratom, lavender, and damiana can improve the taste of cannabis, particularly if you have some mid to low grade weed, as well as provide some added benefits. All these herbs have pleasant effects when vaped alone, so naturally, the experience is intensified when mixed with marijuana.
According to Dr. Ian Mitchell, an emergency physician and clinical assistant professor at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, cannabis is typically vaped at 175-200°C. This temperature can be adjusted when cannabis is combined with other herbs. It's best to find a middle ground temperature that's right in between what would optimal for each.
Kratom, also known as mitragyna speciosa, is a tropical evergreen tree from Southeastern Asia. Kratom is one of the most popular herbs to be vaped together with cannabis. It's been used for centuries, but only recently became more mainstream in the western world.
On its own, kratom produces a mild high for some users. Less than what one would feel after smoking cannabis. But mixing the two could open up a whole new world of spiritual connectivity and psychedelic vibes. Most users who've tried the combination state that kratom helps to enhance the effects of the cannabis rather significantly.
The ideal temperature for vaping kratom is 175-200°C, which is right in line with the best temperature for vaping cannabis. These two trippy, holistic herbs are a match made in vaping heaven.
Those who vape are often partial to lavender and mint. While the flavours are vastly different, the effects are fairly similar. Lavender is a scented, flowering species of Lamiaceae plants, more commonly known as the mint family.
Both lavender and mint are very comforting herbs to vape that can help you relax physically and mentally. Both can soothe the smoke as well if coughing happens to be an issue when smoking bowls.
About 75% cannabis and 25% supplemental herbs would be a good mixture to start with, that way the taste of mint or lavender won't be too overbearing. Another popular combination is 50% cannabis (good indica preferred), 25% lavender, and 25% percent sleepy time tea. It's smooth, and it tastes phenomenal. Use this combination before bed to sleep peacefully throughout the night.
Mint is best vaped at 160-175°C. When vaped alone, lavender is usually vaped at lower temperatures, somewhere around 130°C. But a lot of people vape it together with cannabis at higher temperatures and don't have any issues.
St. John's Wort is part of the Hypericaceae family that was originally native to parts of Asia and Europe. Presently, it has spread throughout the world and grows in many different regions in the wild.
It works as a very mild monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI). So mild in fact and with so few side effects, it's often prescribed as a mood stabiliser for children. MAOIs have been known to reduce the necessary dosage levels for other drugs to work in your system, so it wouldn't be a far stretch to assume that it might do the same for cannabis.
Both cannabis and St John's Wort are very effective antidepressant and anti-anxiety remedies. When paired, patients feel almost immediate relief that lasts for hours. St John's Wort is known to exacerbate the symptoms of ADD and ADHD, but cannabis is proven to help improve symptoms of those disorders.
St. John's Wort is supposed to be vaped at low temperatures, around 100-150°C. It's best to vape cannabis first at 175-200°C, followed by St. John's Wort. If you prefer vaping them simultaneously, 160-175°C might be a happy medium.
A subtle blend of marihuanilla, passionflower, and cannabis is another mix that's recently become popular. It has a smooth and sweet flavour but it doesn't overwhelm the taste of the cannabis, and the high differs from using weed alone.
The high is described as higher energy and more lucid. It makes sense considering that passionflower is often used with other psychedelics to strengthen and prolong their effects. Some people choose to exclude the passionflower and use just the marihuanilla and cannabis mixture as a tobacco replacement.
The preferred temperature to vape passionflower is 150-160°C, and for marihuanilla it's 150-175°C.
Kanna is a succulent with small, white flowers that originated in Africa. There aren't many noted medical benefits to kanna consumption aside from anxiety relief, but the psychedelic effects are well documented. Combining it with cannabis will make everything more surreal and upbeat than usual, but using too much could lead to some vivid hallucination and nausea.
The mixture of cannabis and kanna should be vaped at 185-190°C to feel the full effects.
Damiana is a shrub with pretty yellow flowers that's native to South Texas, Mexico, and South America. It's mainly used as a stimulant, but it's also known to be a powerful aphrodisiac, which could be a good or bad thing depending on the situation.
Another legal plant with effects similar to those of cannabis, damiana is often used as a substitute or alongside the lovely green flowers. The flavour mixes nicely with marijuana, and it enhances the relaxing and euphoric feelings felt when getting stoned.
Note that the flavour can linger for a while. Some people love the taste of cannabis alone, so to avoid that you can either vape the cannabis first, or use separate devices for each herb.
The optimal temperature for damiana, either alone or coupled with cannabis, is 175-200°C.
Chamomile has been popular for centuries because it has a multitude of uses. Before modern day medicine, chamomile was used as a treatment for anxiety, depression, stress, headaches, and indigestion. To this day, it's still used commonly for relaxation and as a sleep aid.
Chamomile is usually brewed into a tea, but vaping has become a common go-to method for chamomile consumption as well. Chamomile is also mixed with cannabis quite often to either vape or smoke. There isn't a lot of effect on the high, but it's a very popular flavour additive.
Vape your cannabis-chamomile concoction at 190°C for the best results.
When vaping any new herbs, there are a few important things to keep in mind. First and foremost, always purchase 100% organic products. Any synthetic ingredients could negatively impact the effects it would have. Secondly, don't use too much too fast. It's best to start by incorporating small amounts of herbs into your cannabis to see how your body reacts.
Now get to experimenting! Maybe one of these mixtures will provide you with the relief and the high you've been looking for. | 2019-04-26T06:01:29 | https://www.zamnesia.com/blog-best-herbs-to-mix-with-cannabis-n1319 |
Here’s the thing. Typos happen. No matter how vigilant you are, no matter how many times you run spell check, no matter how many times you proofread, one of those suckers will slip through.
Maybe that’s why whenever I catch a typo in someone else’s content, I’m suddenly a little bit happier. Some call that schadenfreude; others call it being a jerk. Either way, I know I’m not alone in this sentiment. Seeing other people’s mistakes just makes you feel a little less alone in this crazy world.
The other thing about typos? Some are worse than others. A mitskae like tihs isn’t as bad as … well, as bad as the 16 errors you’re about to see. For those who need to indulge in their schadenfreude or just let off some steam from the week, we’ve compiled some of the most hilarious typos and grammar errors in marketing.
1) Childhood education is paramount to our future.
2) Someone used CTRL + F a little too hastily.
4) Finally, a fabulous ad for a fantastic movie.
5) Attention to detail could’ve saved this company from embarrassment.
6) Ironic Twitter shaming: a dish best served cold.
7) This ad is cringeworthy for grammatical reasons, too.
9) Are gender-specific calls-to-action the next trend in marketing?
10) This typo wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t a Promoted Tweet.
11) Pssst … I think something’s a little off.
12) Did they edit this ad in a New York minute?
15) Perfection certainly does have its price.
16) But … we’ve all been there.
Ever let a typo slip through the cracks of your marketing? Share your stories with us in the comments — we promise, this is a safe place.

When Skrillex got booked to open for Guns N’ Roses on their “Not In This Lifetime” reunion tour, we were ready for a heavy show and took on the task of stage design for this one-off gig. Our approach was fairly simple: create a large look with a powerful delivery. Monolithic forms akin to amp stacks equipped with amber halogen fixtures embody the staple elements of any classic, heavy metal show. | 2019-04-26T00:00:14 | http://production.club/productions/skrillex-guns-n-roses/ |
WALES -- The divisive school busing issue that was never resolved formally last spring is out for a spin again.
WALES — The divisive school busing issue that was never resolved formally last spring is out for a spin again.
The board of Regional School Unit 4, which includes Litchfield, Sabattus and Wales, is getting voters’ opinions on whether to contract out school bus operations to a private company.
Residents in the three towns will get to weigh in on the issue in the Nov. 6 election. The result, however, will not be binding on the board.
Joan Thomas, of Litchfield, was the lone school board member opposed to putting the question to the voters.
Thomas said she hopes the board will follow the public’s direction.
A move to contract out the bus operations ignited a firestorm last spring as bus drivers who were looking at losing their jobs with the district and other community members asked the board to reconsider the move, which was expected to save the district more than $220,000, minus the cost of a severance package for the drivers.
Drivers aired their concerns at school board meetings and picketed at one. The district had 22 drivers at the time.
Despite those efforts, the school board voted May 2 to privatize the operation.
Then, on May 9, the board opted against awarding the contract to the sole bidder, Northeast Charter & Tour of Lewiston, which provides busing service to Winthrop schools.
“What changed for some board members were questions about mileage, maintenance and repair issues and some liability insurance issues,” board Chairman Robert Gayton Jr. said then.
Thomas remains a staunch supporter of keeping busing in-house. | 2019-04-25T12:10:11 | https://www.centralmaine.com/2012/10/15/rsu-4-to-vote-on-school-bus-option_2012-10-14/ |

Two Newport Beach families donated $100,000 in a matching grant to Newport Harbor High School, the Newport Harbor Educational Foundation announced Tuesday.
Philanthropists Cassie and David Conant and Sue and Nick Willett gave $50,000 from each couple to nudge new donors toward supporting the high school, according to a news release.
For each new donation of $2,500 or more to the foundation, a matching amount of money will be given out of the $100,000.
"Excellent schools make our community truly extraordinary," David Conant said. "And we are proud to encourage other families to support Newport Harbor High School through the Newport Harbor Educational Foundation."
Another donor, David Pyle, gave $50,000 for the Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) college prep program at Newport Harbor, according to the release.
All the donations were made at the educational foundation's annual Donor Appreciation Celebration on June 6.

The team that brought us the first neurally remote controlled beetle has a new paper out today proposing a huge step forward in brain-computer interfaces. In an article published the arXiv Quantitative Biology archive, Dongjin Seo, Michael Maharbiz, and colleagues from the University of California at Berkeley propose a system they call 'Neural Dust'.
Brain-computer interfaces today generally work by sticking electrodes into the brain. That runs into severe problems - all those electrodes cause trauma as they penetrate the brain, and leave wires that wind through and between the brain's neurons, potentially attracting scar tissue or driving the brain to reject the implant.
The proposed 'Neural Dust' system (and it's just a proposal for now) would work differently. The authors propose sprinkling tiny dust-sized passive silicon sensors, about 100 microns across, throughout the human cortex. These sensors would be about as big around as the thickness of a human hair, and fabricated via a CMOS process, the same as used for many conventional computer chips.
They'd be sprinkled through the cortex. Just outside the cortex but underneath the skull would be a larger chip, still only millimeters across, that would communicate with them via ultrasound. The use of ultrasound would let the neural dust particles send information pulses without disrupting the activity of neurons around them, and without needing to have any wires or electrodes getting in the way.
Outside the skull entirely would be the external transceiver. This chip would provide wireless power for the chips inside the skull, and would read the data out from the brain, allowing scientists and engineers to see what's going on inside.
The brilliance of this system is that it could potentially allow scientists to see what's going on with thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of neurons inside the brain at once, by sprinkling enough neural dust particles and sub-dural transceivers.
Of course, it's still only theoretical, though the researchers have published the paper in part to seriously work through the knot of design questions involved and to stimulate others to take steps towards fabrication. The neural dust proposal would also be only one way - it would allow data to be pulled out of the brain - to allow you to control a robot arm, say, or to let someone see what you're thinking or feeling - but not allow data to be transmitted into the brain - to give you touch feedback on that robot arm, or to show you what someone else is thinking or feeling.
Even so, I'm delighted to see this. In fact, I learned of it when someone tweeted this paper at me, suggested it might be a step towards the brain-linking nano-drug in my novel Nexus. Heh. I think they just might be right. And I sure hope so.

One of the sure signs that spring has arrived is when the beautiful yellow forsythia bushes begin blooming throughout the neighborhood. The bright cheery color makes me think of warmer weather that is on it's way.
You don't have to wait for them to blossom outside to enjoy the beauty, though. Forsythia is one of the easiest flowering branches to force to bloom inside the house during the colder months.
Flowering trees and shrubs set their buds for the following year after dropping their leaves in the fall. They need a proper cold period of between 6 to 8 weeks in dormancy before they are ready to be brought indoors to bloom. In many areas, this means that they can be pruned from the bushes as early as January.
I'm a bit late with this post for many of you in warmer climates. But because of the extremely cold winter, the bushes in my area are not close to blooming yet so it is still possible to force them indoors. They will actually blossom faster now than if they were cut in the dead of winter. The length of time it takes for them to bloom depends a lot on how close it is to their normal blooming period.
Add the branches to water that so warm that it is almost hot. The warm water opens the pores of the branch and allows it to draw in the water much faster. Be sure that any blossoms that are under the level of the water are removed. Typically it will take about two weeks until they are in full bloom.
The flowering forsythia branches can last up to three weeks if they are in a room that is not too warm and stay out of direct sunlight. Changing the water regularly also helps for the flowers to stay intact.
This is such an easy and inexpensive way to bring a little pop of color and spring into your home. I'm on my way out to gather some branches right now.
Is this a trick that you've tried in the past? | 2019-04-23T14:54:47 | https://www.andersonandgrant.com/2015/04/forcing-forsythia-to-bloom-indoors-for.html |

If a calorie falls into your mouth, does it make a difference? A bite of a mini candy bar here, and a taste there of a sample at the grocery store may not seem like much when you are eating, but do it enough and it adds up. You want to be careful not to taste test your way to weight gain, and consuming enough "empty" calories can contribute to that.
Contrary to the term, an empty calorie does not refer to a food that is low in calories, but a caloric food with very little nutritional value. For example, a breakfast fruit bar and a candy bar may have the same number of calories, but where the fruit bar contains fiber and some vitamins and minerals essential to good nutrition, the candy bar may be completely sugar. You could consume one or the other for the same amount of calories to burn, but in the end which is healthier for you? Which food will provide you with more energy and health benefits throughout the day? Which food will be processed better to feed your body valuable nutrients, and which food will be processed immediately into fat?
Some calories may be empty, but be assured they can be full of trouble.
For a proper, nutritious diet, foods such as the ones listed above should be avoided or severely limited. To improve eating habits and consume calories that will prove beneficial to your body, make thoughtful replacements. For a sweet snack, enjoy some fruit instead of candy. Try a whole grain bread for your sandwich, long grain rice or a green vegetable as a side instead of white rice, and water instead of soda.
But what about spreads for your toast? Most jams and jellies could be considered empty calories as well for their high sugar contents. If you must have a spread, check labels to see what you are eating. A homemade apple butter may have more nutritional value than the squeezable bottle of grape jelly.
Such substitutions add up in the long run, and you just may find that as the empty calories go away, so will the fat.

‘Master of Folk Art’ awardees are exemplary individuals recognized in their respective fields as having a positive impact on their environment and playing a crucial role in the safeguarding and transmission of traditional cultural heritage through their creative and artistic work. The distinction is awarded by the Hungarian State to exceptionally talented folk artists specializing in any of the various domains of intangible traditional cultural expression and therefore bearers of that heritage, who through their particular artistic activity and life-work meet the criteria for inscription on the National Inventory of Intangible Cultural Heritage.
These individuals together with their activity and knowledge are selected for inscription on the National Inventory by the National Committee. The state award was established in 1953 and has been awarded annually ever since on the national holiday commemorating the founding of the country (20th of August) in any of five categories (folk dance, folk singing, instrumental folk music, storytelling and traditional handicrafts) based on recommendations and nominations by the local communities and associations. | 2019-04-22T22:52:25 | http://szellemikulturalisorokseg.hu/index0_en.php?name=en_0_nepmuveszet_mesterei |

The best source of information is the NY State Dealers & Transporters Regulations (pdf) (CR-78).
Some exceptions allow you to use a Salvage Certificate (MV-907A) to sell a vehicle as "junk". The DMV cannot issue a title certificate or a registration to a junk vehicle or a salvage vehicle that is rebuilt unless the vehicle passes a salvage vehicle examination. If a title certificate is issued it will receive a brand that displays "REBUILT SALVAGE:NY".
The selling price is not required on form MV-50 when a vehicle is sold wholesale.
A New York State inspection is not required for a vehicle registered in another state.
These terms refer to the warranties described by the Office of the Attorney General (website: www.ag.ny.gov) in the 'Lemon Law'. The Vehicle and Traffic Law requires a dealer to complete the Used Vehicle Certification on form MV-50. The law applies to all vehicles sold at any selling price and which display any odometer reading. The vehicle must be acceptable for use on the road at the time of sale.
If you cannot get the title certificate for a vehicle you sold and the temporary registration expires soon, you cannot get another temporary registration. According to the DMV Commissioner's Regulations, you cannot sell a vehicle if you do not have proof of ownership. You cannot issue an additional temporary registration under any circumstances.
To get a surety bond, you must contact a surety insurance company. Make sure that the business name and mailing address on the bond exactly match the business name and mailing address on your DMV facility license. Make sure that you write your Facility Number on the bond.

Local feds to Colorado: We're still less interested in weed than in immigration, opioids and violent crime - Denverite, the Denver site!
Jan. 12, 2018, 1:39 p.m.
U.S. Attorney Robert Troyer, the man who decides how to enforce federal law in Colorado, had some reassuring words for the legal marijuana industry, according to Congresswoman Diana DeGette’s office.
In a phone call on Thursday, Troyer told Colorado’s Congressional delegation that his office would not shift attention from other issues to marijuana, DeGette’s office reported.
Talk of a federal crackdown has hung over the legal marijuana states since last week, when Attorney General Jeff Sessions repealed a policy that given some protection to the industry. Previously, the Justice Department had told its prosecutors that their main duty on legal marijuana was to make sure that it’s well regulated.
With Sessions’ change, the door was opened for officials like Troyer to decide their own paths. Since marijuana is federally illegal, Troyer could theoretically press felony charges against many of the people involved int he industry.
Of course, Troyer still has to answer to Jeff Sessions. If Sessions goes further and orders active prosecution of the industry, than Troyer would have little choice, according to Walsh.
Meanwhile, the new uncertainty is making investors nervous about the cannabis business, as Kristen Nichols reported. | 2019-04-20T20:21:23 | https://denverite.com/2018/01/12/local-feds-colorado-not-cracking-weed/ |

Interfraternity Council president Will Altabef, a Communication junior, answers questions during a forum Monday evening. The IFC executive board hosted the event to discuss student concerns and ideas following the banner controversy.
Interfraternity Council’s executive board will encourage “values-based recruitment” in addition to implementing an expanded education curriculum starting this fall, the board announced during a forum Monday evening organized in response to the banner controversy earlier this month.
The forum drew 12 students to University Hall to discuss and critique IFC’s handling of campus sexual assault. IFC organized the event after criticism of banners it distributed to its chapters for Sexual Assault Awareness Month, which some students found hypocritical and in poor taste.
The executive board responded to attendees’ questions and critiques, while also outlining new efforts the board is making. The board plans to encourage chapters to hold recruitment events that help members better understand potential new members’ values, Jacob Swan, a McCormick sophomore and IFC vice president for public relations, told The Daily after the forum.
The board also discussed more details of the four-year sexual assault education program it announced earlier this month. The curriculum educates IFC members on social issues, including sexual assault, and will expand to a series of programs aimed at both new and older IFC members.
SESP junior Sydney Selix told The Daily she attended the dialogue because she wanted to hear what IFC’s executive board had to say following the banner controversy.
Selix said although the event was not well-attended and more conversations like this are needed, she appreciates the board’s “sincere efforts” to address sexual assault on campus. In the future, she said she hopes more IFC members attend similar events.
“If you don’t care that your peers are sexually assaulting other women (or) you care but you’re not invested in that, then I urge you to become invested in ensuring that your brothers and your peers are decent human beings and aren’t sexualy assaulting people,” Selix said.
Weinberg sophomore Kevin Pu, wellness chair for Delta Chi fraternity, said the dialogue allowed him to listen to the problems some students have with IFC. He said the discussion not only informed him as to what IFC planned to do but made him realize the actions he could take as an individual to change campus culture.
Pu also noted IFC’s executive board is largely just “a role model” for its chapters, and individual chapters must take action.
IFC president Will Altabef, a Communication junior, said the board will use the information from the dialogue to improve its decisions going forward.
Correction: A previous version of this story mischaracterized IFC’s new four-year education curriculum. A series of programs are planned to replace its annual Winter Education Conference. The Daily regrets the error. | 2019-04-18T22:39:44 | https://dailynorthwestern.com/2016/05/17/campus/ifc-plans-to-encourage-values-based-recruitment-fall-quarter/ |
?He must be Irish,? noted Emer Ferguson about New Yorker Dan Flavin, ?because it says here he spent three hours drawing in the rain.?
My friend Emer and I, on the other hand, spent three hours last week in a New York museum, studying the drawings, notes, and ideas of the ?Minimalist monk?* during our biannual visit to the Morgan Library, Pierpont Morgan?s monument to books, papers and great works of art. | 2019-04-21T00:11:22 | http://blackandgold.com/nola/42152-green-light.html |
Back in 1993, we vowed to write a book about the Turtles of Honokowai. In 2001 we began the actual manuscript, only to be interrupted by Fate (see our Prolog to 2002). In 2003, we wrote the promise to complete the book onto a small dive slate and tucked it under The Battery at Reef 2. We continued to write and work on the book.
Summer 2006 is truly a special summer. We found a publisher for our book, University of Hawaii Press, and we couldn't be more delighted. On our first dive of this summer, we returned to The Battery, pulled out "The Promise", by now nearly faded from the dive slate we planted in 2003, and took this picture.
This summer will prove to be a busy one. We have to exercise, dive, kayak, and have a revised manuscript, promised to the publisher for the end of August.
And... it's 5690's summer to nest again. That means we'll be keeping night watches for Mama nesting, as well as babysitting her babies. Nights out on a beach.
We made our first dive on July 2nd. As we snorkelled out, we were immediately struck by the murkiness of the water. It took just seconds after our first descent to understand why. We saw a blanket of red silt coating the ocean floor.
As we kicked deeper, we discovered just how extensively the red silt had collected. We realized it was 1994 all over again--meaning at the best of times we'd be diving in a perpetual haze.
As we got to Makana's Ridge we were shocked at how deep and pervasive--how many tons of silt and soil had been deposited since 2005.
Slowly turtles came into view. Most who saw us took no notice. Old acquaintances just continuing to do what they were doing. Resting mostly.
We conducted the summer's first roll call.
The greatest surprise and source of joy was seeing Fred after so many years. Some turtle's faces you just never forget and Fred is one of them. When we first meet Fred in 1992 he/she was the tiniest turtle we'd ever seen.
What a difference fourteen years make!
Fred (foreground) is all growed up.
What can we say? Last year it took us three weeks before someone called the Maui Fire Department to come and rescue us. This time they showed up on our first tour out.
Perhaps it's because we set out just to watch the sun set. Perhaps it's because we stay out long after the sun's gone and so is the last hint of dusk. Perhaps it's because we're out there in the deep of dark watching the stars and the moon.
Either way, we're rinsing off from our first kayak trip and two people in uniform walk up to us and ask if we were "the kayakers." Then they tell us they received a call of kayakers in trouble. Etc. etc.
We thank them for checking up on us and wish them a good night.
So, five days later. We're once again enjoying the peace of dusk and the first twinkle of stars when we hear the chop chop Chop Chop CHOP of an approaching helicopter. We speculate why they appear to be showing such interest in the water.
Peter suggests someone has once again called for a rescue. Ursula says surely that can't be for us! The helicopter is now so close to the water it's whipping froth. It's beak points to us, then it presents itself sideways--all the while lights on, hovering and noisy.
We decide to turn upcurrent and paddle to show them we have control of our kayak. Then we turn around to paddle back home. The one thing we do not do is wave. They lose interest in us and now. more urgently, sweep the waters to the north.
There's no doubt they're looking for someone to rescue.
So, readers, we haven't been using our kayak our first full week and we've had the Maui Fire Department and a rescue helicopter trying to rescue us.
Ursula wraps herself in Their Evil Empire Flag as we drift back to shore after a successful kayak night out. We say "successful" because on this occasion no fire department or rescue helicopter tried to rescue us. We say "Their Evil Empire Flag" for reasons that will become obvious when we finish writing "The Legend of Their Evil Empire Flag".
We were concerned about being the cause of rescue calls, so we called the Maui Fire Department to explain that we were often out on the water at sunset, that we always carried an emergency location transmitter, and described our kayak to them so that they would know know that we weren't having an emergency.
They thanked us for our call but explained that no matter what, they had to respond to every call. This makes sense, of course. It also made us pretty happy to hear, actually.
In the course of our call, we mentioned the rescue chopper. We were pleased to be told that the helicopter probably wasn't called out because of us. Apparently, there is a monk seal in the area (maybe the same one we saw last year) and someone probably thought it was a swimmer in distress. Well, we know that when a monk seal is flapping an eel around, from a distance it could easily look like a swimmer thrashing and waving for help.
So now we don't feel so guilty. We do appreciate that the Maui Fire Department is on the job. We also appreciate that people are watching the water and reporting what they feel could be emergencies. Better a thousand false alarms than one unreported tragedy.
Our second dive was memorable. We resighted two tagged females: 605C, who we've known since 1995, and a turtle we've known since 2001: Hulali, 612C. Good to have them home this summer.
The real surprise and source of happiness showed up early in our dive. Peter waved to get Ursula's attention and pointed to a turtle. Ursula immediately recognized her as Wana. JOY! Wana was missing all last summer.
That wasn't what Peter was pointing at, however. At the rear of Wana's shell were the faded remains of a mototool marking. Now we knew for certain why Wana was away last summer. She was busy making baby honu at East Island!
We photographed the mototool and sent the image to George Balazs, head of Marine Turtle Research for the Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center. George agreed that two of the markings are a 7 and a 7. That meant Wana could only be either Turtle 177 or 277 of the 2005 nesting season.
He is now examining the records of these two turtles to help us identify which one is Wana.
All that remains of Wana's 2005 mototool marking. The last two characters are almost certainly 77, but the only trace of the first number is a dot.
After exactly one week here, we'd only logged in two dives. This is really the first summer where we've felt that age is creeping up on us. Admittedly we've had errands to run across-island. At least one day was cloudy, which would mean the hazy water here would be absolutely gloomy. Good for hiding sharks in!
We are still getting about 5 new turtles up a night. More than half of these are untagged. A good sign - new girls coming to East.
There are also 6 "special turtles" that migrate from a monitored dive site on Maui. The couple that monitors the turtles catalogs their dives on this website (http://www.turtles.org/). The turtles names we have seen here are Raphael, Alaeloa female (tag # 4136013879), Mendelbrot, 417T, Shredder, and Tiamat.
One Honokowai female looms large in her absence here. Tutu, who we've known since 1990. Admittedly, it's been only two dives but she's not in her usual place at Reef 2, and George's East Island team hasn't sighted her nesting.
The first week here is as good a time to start worrying as any. We're worried about Tutu.
As we mentioned, we've known Tutu since 1990. One other turtle, Nui also has a Honokowai residency we can trace back that far. During our first and only day-time kayak snorkel trip we resighted Nui, and Peter took this portrait of our old friend.
Our first sighting of Nui in 2006, taken while snorkelling at Hoaka.
This gives Nui the distinction of the longest residency of any Honokowai honu, at least until we locate Tutu: sixteen years since first sighted back in 1990. It's pretty certain as well that Nui has taken the summer off from migration duties. Nice to have him here for the summer.
Back in 2004, we met a strange turtle at Kuamo'o. We immediately suspected that it was a green-hawksbill cross, which George Balazs later dubbed a "honubill." We called the turtle "Wai?" (yes, including the question mark) which is Hawaiian for "Who?" because we weren't sure who we were dealing with. Later that summer, George was visiting and met Wai? He collected some barnacles with the hopes that enough DNA material would cling to them to allow a test to prove Wai? was indeed a cross, but alas, it didn't work out. Unfortunately, we didn't see Wai? again that summer, or at any time in 2005.
So there we were at Reef 2, which is a heck of a long way from Kuamo'o, and who was sitting on the corals? None other than a strange-looking duck who could only be--Wai?
Wai?, the oddest turtle we've ever met.
Indeed it was. When we got back ashore, we quickly checked our database of profiles, confirming beyond any doubt that Wai? was visiting Reef 2. In fact, we were astounded that the left profile from Reef 2 duplicated almost exactly the left profile we'd gotten back in 2004. They look as though they were shot within seconds of each other.
We are keeping our fingers crossed that Wai? will hang around and we'll see her (him?) again. With bit of luck, perhaps George will get the opportunity to try the DNA test again. It would be really exciting to prove what we are already pretty sure of, namely that Wai? is a real honubill.
The sighting left us in awe once again of the astounding luck we have sometimes. What are the odds that Wai?, a turtle we saw only twice at Kuamo'o, would show up at Reef 2, literally miles down the coast--and that we'd be out there to make the sighting? Time to buy lottery tickets!
Ying. Yang. With the good news comes the bad.
"Large, female turtle struck by boat, SCL 86.9cm, weight 257.0lbs. Initially seen alive at Pohaku Beach Park with air escaping the wounds when it breathed, later found dead near Noelani Condos, in Kahana."
He wanted to determine if we knew the turtle. We checked our database and confirmed a right profile match and asked for a left. That matched too.
With sadness, we reported to George that we knew the turtle. She gave us several special memories, including one of the best photos we'd ever taken. Back in 2003 one of our big males, Blue, was resting at the bottom minding his own business when this turtle decided Blue looked a bit too peaceful and proceeded to sit down atop him.
2003 Turtle 46, bugging Blue.
2003 Turtle 46, killed by a boat prop.
We'd like to end this weekly summary on a happy note but no, we believe that it's only fitting to emphasize the danger boat propellers pose to sea turtles, even though the rate of such incidents is fortunately low: just 3% of strandings, as documented by the Sea Turtle Stranding Research Network in the Hawaiian Islands. | 2019-04-25T07:53:31 | http://turtles.org/06week1.htm |

Star Wars Galaxies, the Star Wars MMO released in the wild, wooly pre-World of Warcraft days, was a beautiful, insanely ambitious disaster. It allowed its players to get as close a simulation of living in the Star Wars universe as the world has seen. You could be a bounty hunter, space trapper, space stylist, or even join a shittier version of Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes, but only if you were prepared to put up with a whole heaping helping of jank.
Now, four years after Star Wars Galaxies shuttered its doors to players, and a decade after working on the game, former Galaxies creative director Raph Koster is opening up about the original vision for the game and how its troubled development led to the downfall of that vision. While all of Koster’s (lengthy) blog posts have been interesting, this post about the game’s Jedi is especially noteworthy. Jedi were seriously rare in Galaxies—what with it taking place in the original trilogy’s timeline and all—and Koster goes into detail about both turning that rarity into an asset, and how revealing the secret to becoming a Jedi killed the game. Read all of Koster’s ongoing blog here. | 2019-04-24T04:04:40 | https://news.avclub.com/read-this-how-the-jedi-killed-star-wars-galaxies-1798278852 |

Robert Gabriel Mugabe, ex-President of Zimbabwe, has been spotted canvasing throughout Woodland Road this morning for his latest prospective public office, SU Student Living Officer.
The surprise candidate was later seen sitting in a garden chair in front of a Wilko bed sheet that read ‘Vote for Mugabe if You Want to Starve-y!’, handing out flyers of his campaign promises.
‘I’ve been out of work ever since I was forced from office by a military coup back in Zim, and to be honest I miss the power. I was looking round the UK for positions of incredible political and social clout, and when I was told about the importance of the UoB SU Student Living Officer I couldn’t turn it down.
While Bob may he hopeful of his chances, political commentators have pointed to his lack of campaign music video as an indicator of why he may not appeal to the student masses. However, others have stated that his total lack of effort may indeed resonate with such a young audience, for whom any sincere acts of enterprise is regarded as social suicide. | 2019-04-22T12:21:00 | https://whip.org.uk/2018/03/14/recently-unemployed-mugabe-spotted-flyering-in-ass-for-su-student-living-officer/ |

The Massey Herbarium (VPI) at Virginia Tech is an active and growing collection that seeks to represent the floristic diversity of the central Appalachian and Mid-Atlantic regions. Growing from a small teaching collection, the herbarium was established as a state repository in 1927. As of 2015, accessioned vascular plant specimens numbered 108,000. It is estimated that about 65% are from Virginia, the balance from all parts of North American. Groups particularly well represented are ferns (especially Isoetes), Poaceae, Cyperaceae (especially Carex), and Asteraceae (Eupatorium, Packera, Solidago). | 2019-04-22T14:46:04 | http://midwestherbaria.org/portal/collections/misc/collprofiles.php?collid=271 |
In our opinion had experienced the out and out quackery of Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, his use of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DMS)in what can only be described as a publication of Fraud or Quackery of medical science, and does no true medical science test (with a blood test, x-ray, urine test, etc.) or applied scientific procedures, Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DMS) must use it to prove diagnosis of these “conditions” or “disorders” which are nothing more than in actually “labels” he puts on people, why because he does not use true medical science test (with a blood test, x-ray, urine test, etc.) or applied scientific procedures, he has no equipment in his offce to do these test, or any lab contracted to do them. Also, claims of Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, prescribing dangerous Psychotropic medications based on the claims of a chemical imbalance in your brains chemistry, but this is not the scientific or medical facts at all.
1 Kelly Patricia O’Meara, Psyched Out: How Psychiatry Sells Mental Illness and Pushes Pills That Kill (AuthorHouse, 2006), pp. 47–48, citing Jonathan Leo paper, “The Biology of Mental Illness,” 2004.
Claims of a chemical imbalance in your brain’s chemistry by Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, is just in another fraud ploy in getting you on these (these drugs do include Adderall, Antidepressants, which include the SSRI Class of drugs) Psychotropic drugs so he can make you an addict to these Psychotropic drugs so he can keep you coming back for you Psychotropic drug hit, and he can keep collecting office fees for no other reason to feed his greed for wealth, and his policy of spending only five minutes with each patient for more profit (he should be spending and hour with each patient in “talk therapy”, he would like you to think his nurse practitioner can provide this “talk therapy”, but in actually their training is limited and the harm they can do is very great, due to this lack of training, and personal issues they bring in with them that harms the patient and their careers, children, families, and marriages).
Promenade physicians as Dr. Mercola, Dr. Hayman, and Dr. Drew respected and nationally known physicians have come out against this form of medical quackery and the casual prescribing of Psychotropic medications including their “cocktails” of medications (more than one Psychotropic medications prescribed together at the same time, creating a more toxic combination in the body) (these drugs do include Adderall, Antidepressants, which include the SSRI Class of drugs), and in our experience this is how Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, operates, and treats his patients.
The situation of the Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, not only prescribing ADDERALL (a Schedule II controlled substance) is the new name for a Dextroamphetamine/Amphetamine composite medication, and as we will see a deadly drug that has been pulled off the market in Canada after regulators linked the drug to 20 sudden deaths and 12 strokes. Fourteen of the deaths and two of the 12 strokes were in children, and does he tell his patient about all these risks no. Yet, Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, still prescribes this deadly drug by itself, but also combines the chance of a deadly reaction by including ADDERALL in a “cocktail” (a combination which is known to be lethal if the drugs combined react to each other) One patient went toDr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, for “Stress” he ended up with one of Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, deadly cocktails of ADDERALL, XANIX, and LEXAPRO. The patients immediately had severe reactions to this deadly “cocktail”. He complained to Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas,and Sharon Walters RN, Bedford, Texas, his nurse about chest pains, and feeling generally in bad health, Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, and Sharon Walters RN, Bedford, Texas, ignored his complaints and acted totally unconcerned, the patient ended up at his general practitioner with severe chest pain, and was treated by his general practitioner. After seeing another doctor on the first visit the patient was imediately taken off the ADDERALL, and XANIX, after some time he was tested for ADD and did not have it, and was finally taken off the LEXAPRO, after seeing a detox doctor to rid the patient of the toxins left in his body by Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas,”cocktail” the patient was told there was nothing wrong with the patient in the first place, and Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, and Sharon Walters RN, Bedford, Texas, gave him the medications just to sell drugs for the drug companies who pay him.

GENERALLY AVOID: Several case reports suggest that serotonin reuptake inhibitors may potentiate the pharmacologic response to sympathomimetic agents. The exact mechanism of interaction is unclear. In one case report, a patient experienced jitteriness, racing thoughts, stomach cramps, dry eyes, palpitations, tremors, and restlessness following a single dose of phentermine ingested approximately a week after she had discontinued fluoxetine. Because of the long half-life of fluoxetine and its metabolite, an interaction with fluoxetine is possible. Similar toxic reactions have been reported when fluoxetine was used concomitantly with amphetamine or phenylpropanolamine. Additionally, some sympathomimetic agents such as amphetamines may possess serotonergic activity and should generally not be administered with serotonin reuptake inhibitors because of the additive risk of serotonin syndrome, which is a rare but serious and potentially fatal condition thought to result from hyperstimulation of brainstem 5-HT1A and 2A receptors. The interaction was suspected in a patient treated with dexamphetamine who developed symptoms consistent with the serotonin syndrome approximately 2 weeks after the addition of venlafaxine. The medications were discontinued and the patient was given cyproheptadine for suspected serotonin syndrome, whereupon symptoms promptly resolved. A second episode occurred when dexamphetamine was subsequently resumed and citalopram added. The patient improved following cessation of citalopram on his own, and residual symptoms were successfully treated with cyproheptadine.
MANAGEMENT: In general, amphetamines and other sympathomimetic appetite suppressants should not be combined with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). Close monitoring for enhanced sympathomimetic effects and possible serotonin syndrome is recommended if these agents must be used together. Symptoms of the serotonin syndrome may include mental status changes such as irritability, altered consciousness, confusion, hallucinations, and coma; autonomic dysfunction such as tachycardia, hyperthermia, diaphoresis, shivering, blood pressure lability, and mydriasis; neuromuscular abnormalities such as hyperreflexia, myoclonus, tremor, rigidity, and ataxia; and gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal cramping, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
MONITOR: Fluoxetine may increase plasma alprazolam concentrations, decrease alprazolam clearance, and increase the elimination half-life of alprazolam. The mechanism may be related to inhibition of CYP450 3A4 microsomal drug metabolism. This combination may impair psychomotor performance and reports have suggested that the risk of cardiac toxicity such as bradycardia may be increased.
MANAGEMENT: If fluoxetine and alprazolam must be used together, close observation is recommended for increased adverse effects. Patients should be warned about excessive drowsiness and potential adverse effects on their psychomotor and driving skills.
Adderall XR (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) interacts with more than 200 other drugs.
Prozac (fluoxetine) interacts with more than 400 other drugs.
Xanax (alprazolam) interacts with more than 300 other drugs.
In general Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, prescribed a “deadly cocktail”, without any concern for the patient’s life, and then ignored when issues described occurred, and in our opinion all for his personal greed for wealth (five minutes with Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, and you are out the door with a drug if you need it or not), and to get a credit with the drug companies for prescribing their drugs, and all of this deadly cocktail was based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DMS) in what can only be described as a publication of Fraud or Quackery of medical science, and does no true medical science test (with a blood test, x-ray, urine test, etc.) or applied scientific procedures, a fact that Cathal Grant does not want to get out, about the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DMS) it a fraud of medical science, and is nothing but a book of “labels“ to put on patients so he can prescribe drugs and charge them and his insurance company for , and get them hooked on these medications, so he can get more money from offices visits, but it really seems he does not care if he kills his patients with his deadly “cocktails”.
Notice Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas is paid by Eli Lilly, Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca, Cephalon, GlaxoSmithKline, and Pfizer to push their drug in our opinion it is clear what Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas is doing, prescribing drug if you need them or not. Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, has taken $94,045 from drug companies in 2009-2011.
Minneapolis, MN: It wasn’t until Susan’s brother passed away from a heart attack that she discovered he had been taking Adderall, a drug that has been linked to heart attack, stroke and cardiac arrest. She has no idea why he was prescribed Adderall, but she is hopeful that an attorney will help her find some answers.
Even though a new study indicates that there is no evidence of Adderall heart problems, the jury is still out regarding the link between ADHD medications like Adderall and heart risks. Susan (not her real name) is convinced that her brother would still be alive today if he wasn’t taking 90mg of Adderall daily, which is an extremely high dosage.
“My brother, Gary, was only 64 years old when he passed away in September 2010,” Susan says. “My sister and I, and even his neighbor, noticed his unusual behavior that started about 18 months before he died,” says Susan. “He was a big guy and a Vietnam veteran—in fact he wrote a book about his war experiences and was set up for a book signing just before he died—but he lost so much weight and was so ‘out of it,’ we just couldn’t figure it out.
“Just before he died my sister and I visited him and his wife in Arizona. One night we were all going out for dinner and Gary was so wasted he couldn’t even walk. He didn’t drink alcohol (although he used to be a light drinker) and he certainly didn’t take drugs. But we believe that this prescription drug, Adderall, was a lot more dangerous than alcohol and illegal drugs combined. I talked to his neighbor and he said Gary was always like that—wasted.
“I remember commenting about his weight loss. ‘You are getting so skinny, what is happening to you?’ I asked him. ‘Yeah, I recently went to a high school reunion and people asked me if I had a terminal disease,’ he replied, laughing.
“There was another incident I remember. The last summer before Gary died I called him around midday. ‘I’m in slug mode,’ he said, without even the energy to talk. It was like he had been drugged. This wasn’t like Gary at all, he was always an early riser; he usually had coffee made and the newspaper read by 6am.
“The chief of police and the medical examiner took Gary’s body out of the house and a few days later his wife showed me three bottles of Adderall. Two were empty and one was half full. He was taking 90mg a day and he had already had a heart attack. I knew Gary was on beta blockers for his heart; he also told me that his heart condition was under control. His death certificate said the cause of death was cardiac arrhythmia and the secondary cause was coronary artery disease.
“I wrote a complaint to the chief of police. He responded to my complaint, saying the medical examiner would investigate his medical records and I will get a full report. But I never got a report and Adderall wasn’t even mentioned. It seemed to me that the medical examiner chose to ignore it, possibly because I mentioned a medical malpractice suit.
“I called Gary’s doctor to find out why he was prescribed Adderall. He was getting treated through the VA clinic but the Adderall was from a private practice physician—Gary’s first wife told me that this doctor was known as a ‘pill pusher.’ I didn’t get any answers from either doctor.
ADDERALL (a Schedule II controlled substance) is the new name for a Dextroamphetamine/Amphetamine composite medication that has been around for more than 30 years. This formula was also used in a medication known as Obetrol, made in the past by Rexar and developed for weight loss. As a medication for ADHD, Adderall was approved for unrestricted use for treatment of ADHD by the FDA in March 1996.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires the following “black box” warning on all amphetamines, including Adderall and Adderall XR, which means that medical studies indicate these drugs carry a significant risk of serious, or even life-threatening, adverse effects.
AMPHETAMINES HAVE A HIGH POTENTIAL FOR ABUSE. ADMINISTRATION OF AMPHETAMINES FOR PROLONGED PERIODS OF TIME MAY LEAD TO DRUG DEPENDENCE AND MUST BE AVOIDED. PARTICULAR ATTENTION SHOULD BE PAID TO THE POSSIBILITY OF SUBJECTS OBTAINING AMPHETAMINES FOR NONTHERAPEUTIC USE OR DISTRIBUTION TO OTHERS, AND THE DRUGS SHOULD BE PRESCRIBED OR DISPENSED SPARINGLY. MISUSE OF AMPHETAMINE MAY CAUSE SUDDEN DEATH AND SERIOUS CARDIOVASCULAR ADVERSE EVENTS.
ABOVE: FDA black box warning label means that medical studies indicate the drug carries a significant risk of serious or even life-threatening adverse effects.
In small doses amphetamines can banish tiredness and make the user feel alert and refreshed. However, the burst of energy comes at a price. A “speed crash” always follows the high and may leave the person feeling nauseous, irritable, depressed and extremely exhausted.
Amphetamines have been extensively abused. Extreme psychological dependence and severe social disability have resulted. Abuse of amphetamines may cause a sudden heart attack even in those with no signs of heart disease.
The onset of amphetamine-induced anxiety disorder can occur during amphetamine use or withdrawal, according to best-selling psychiatry text, Kaplan and Sadock’s Synopsis of Psychiatry citing American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders “Amphetamine, as with cocaine, can induce symptoms similar to those seen in obsessive disorder, panic disorder, and phobic disorders,” states Synopsis of Psychiatry.
It is possible to build up a tolerance to amphetamines, which means the person using the drug needs to take larger doses to achieve the same effect. Over time, the body might come to depend on amphetamines just to function normally. The person craves the drug and their psychological dependence makes them panic if access is denied, even temporarily. Withdrawal symptoms can include tiredness, panic attacks, crankiness, extreme hunger, depression and nightmares. Some people experience a pattern of “binge crash” characterized by using continuously for several days without sleep, followed by a period of heavy sleeping.

In my opinion from experience tells of the condition that Cathal Grant refuses to acknowledge with his patients or treat this side effect of the drugs he is prescribing the condition Akathisia, Cathal Grant will not do anything about this condition, so he can keep his patients hooked on the drugs he prescribes, keeping his patients addicted to the drugs he prescribes, no matter what violent behavior his patients exhibit he does nothing.
Previous PostIn my opinion Dr. Mercola proves the fraud of Cathal Grant’s practice when he says “The MOST Effective Treatment for Depression Isn’t Drugs… But You’ll Never Hear That From Your Psychiatrist” as we have experienced especially someone like Cathal Grant who wants to get you hooked on these drugs all for his personal greed.Next PostIn my opinion Asks, you to sign the Petition to have the United States Government investigate for Medical Scientific proof and stop the publishing of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DMS), and Dr. Mercola and others gives you good reasons to sign it. | 2019-04-20T03:14:11 | http://www.inmyopinionfreespeech.us/in-our-opinion-boycott-him/in-my-opinion-the-drug-that-cathal-grant-prescribes-for-add-and-adhd-adderall-here-is-another-case-of-death-by-this-drug-a-woman-says-i-blame-adderall-for-my-brothers-death-will-cathal-grant/ |
Most tourists like to travel and take pictures in famous places, near the Eiffel Tower, the Pisa Tower, the Statue of Liberty, the Great Sphinx and others. But in the world there are many little-known monuments, which few people notice. Although they are very strange, frightening and not ordinary, nevertheless they decorate the cities in which they are, please passers-by, and make these cities a bit unusual.

So I was just checking out this company, uControl, who just released a touchscreen control panel that can either works as its own wireless alarm system or with an existing installed alarm system. Frankly, I don't know that much about this company yet (interviews are pending), but I was struck by an eerie similarity to the company, iControl, who is also developing a similar touchscreen alarm system and I guess the similarity in name is fairly obvious. Despite the uncanny similarities, the touchscreen panels seem pretty cool and innovative. I had a chance to try out iControl's panel at ISC West and it was definitely snazzy, yet intuitive. You could do the typical alarm things like arm/disarm as well as view video cameras from the panel. It also had some "fun" features like rotating pictures, and Internet access for checking sports scores, stock numbers, weather and traffic updates. It also had the home automation element which included controlling lights, temperature and such. And even though the company names may be confusingly similar, these companies are making security cool. | 2019-04-18T20:54:22 | http://securitysystemsnews.com/blog/whos-control |

Lithuanian MP Audronius Ažubalis, representing the opposition conservative Homeland Union – Lithuanian Christian Democrats, on Friday called for eliminating the Russian-capital Yandex.Taxi ride-sharing service in Lithuania after receiving a response from the country's State Security Department.
Azubalis told BNS Lithuania that the Yandex.Taxi service must be halted as "posing threat to national security" as its administrators might be sending consumer data to Russia.
"I believe in this case the task for the Lithuanian government, in cooperation with Vilnius authorities, to look for ways to eliminate this company and its activity in Lithuania," the lawmaker said.
"Since it has to do with national security and the possibility of information collected by this company being used against Lithuania and specific targets, so I think any measure aimed at stopping foreign country's intelligence activity is appropriate," Ažubalis added.
Earlier in the day, Lithuania's National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) said the Yandex.Taxi ride-sharing app sends data to addresses in Russia. Therefore, NCSC advises against using this app.
Yandex.Taxi launched business in Vilnius on Jul. 26.
The Netherlands-based Yandex.Taxi BV, which administers the app, has told BNS Lithuania that it "processes and stores data of EU users strictly according to EU regulations". | 2019-04-26T02:07:46 | https://m.en.delfi.lt/article.php?id=78745783 |

Studio 5380: PKS Challenge - "Potluck"
Hello and welcome to Nonna's Craft Corner!
Create a 3D object of your choice following the theme Potluck. Ever gone to a potluck and had no clue what a dish might be? Here is your chance to make an item to give a heads up of what your dish is. It could be toppers, placards, a banner, or anything else that sparks your creativity! Or maybe you have an awesome way to display your dish, that would work too. Use your amazing creativity to make a run with this challenge!!
Don't those cupcakes look yummy?
It was all I could do to wait until I took pictures before biting into that "Hunka Chunka Banana Love" cupcake! Let me tell you...it was worth the wait - YUM!
To make the toppers for my cupcakes, I used the label stamp from Peachy Keen's September Stamp Club set. After coloring them with my Copic Markers, I colored a few toothpicks then just glued the label onto the toothpick.
The banner is from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons and I attached it to my cake plate using glue dots.
I also made a little card to place in front of my cupcakes using the fun "Sweet Shop" stamp. I colored up the bakery with my Copic Markers and added a little banner to the window for fun. The clouds are from the "Stitched Cartoon Clouds Die" from My Creative Time".
That about wraps up my project for this week's challenge. Don't forget to stop by Peachy Keen Stamps to see what the other Designers have put together for your inspiration (I happen to know there are some awesome creations for you to see). I hope to see your Potluck creation linked up with us very soon!
This is adorable, Tanya. Cute presentation and I love the papers. Great mood lifter!
Tanya ~ Alright I should arrive at your house in less than 5 hours! I hope there are some cupcakes left! This is seriously too CUTE and YUMMY looking! WOW! Have a great weekend and HAPPY FIRDAY!!!!!!
Just adorable...I'll come too...but...what about everybody else's cupcakes? Yummy!!
I am flipping over your project!! How fun are these toppers!!! And those cupcakes look AWESOME!!!
What a GREAT way to display your bakery treats!! Awesome inspiration my friend! Thanks for sharing and have a GREAT weekend!
Your coloring is AMAZING! Awesome presentation and YUMMY cupcakes!!
The cupcakes are so yummy looking. Love the display and the card is too cute. Way to go Tonya.

As we are discovering "why?" is one of the most powerful questions we can ask. Not only in terms of problem solving, but also for motivating and influencing our customers and prospects.
When we can convince our prospects as to why they should buy from us, and take them on an emotional journey to get there, we are in a far greater position to make the sale.
But what emotions should you appeal to and where do you start? In my experience here are the top three selling emotions and how to use them.
In business, trust and profit are intertwined. In order to make more sales or convert new leads, it starts by building trust. The more trust a potential customer has the more likely they are to purchase with you and the more a customer trusts you, the higher their spend will be.
But how do you start to build trust with a contact you don’t know and perhaps have never met?
Every now and again you can have a slow sales week in business. While it can provide the opportunity to catch up on all the tasks you've been "meaning to do", it can put additional stress and pressure on you when it is for an extended period.
So what do you do when your slow week turns into a slow month? Here are four places to find leads quickly and easily.
Want to break up with social media? Don’t!
I’ve been unliking you for a while. I can’t believe how low your reach has stooped and I’m tired of your gold digging ways. I’m afraid we just can’t selfie anymore.
It’s the break up letter so many want to write. With so many changes, low reach and a push towards paid advertising, many people are fantasising about breaking up with their social media accounts.
But before you act on your desires, it might be worth making some changes first.
Could you be marketing to the wrong person or leaving off a key influencer and costing your business sales? While we spend most of our marketing budgets targeting the end user of our product or service, the truth is in many situations that one person rarely makes the purchase decision alone.
They consult with someone else, present their findings and in some cases even ask for approval or make a joint decision to proceed. In other cases someone else (think of the child in the supermarket) can have far greater influence over the buying decision, convincing your potential customer to buy your products or services in a more persuasive way than you doing it direct.
So how do you influence the influencer? Here are three tips to get you started.
Sales letters can be an extremely effective way to generate new business. Whether it is sent via email, social media or good old-fashioned snail mail, when you get the right message, to the right people with the right call to action you can generate a great marketing response. When it’s wrong however, it can be uncomfortably quiet.
The good news is that the common mistakes people when writing sales letters are easily avoided – when you know what they are. So here are the three most common sales writing mistakes to avoid so you stop losing business and start winning sales.
Your ability to compel your customers, readers and followers to read on, act or buy, directly determines your leads, conversions and business profits.
So how do you become more compelling in your sales and marketing? Here are three ways to get you started.
While you know exactly what you love about your business and what you think are your biggest selling points – do you really know what your customer’s value and love about you?
More often than not business owners are selling what they want to sell rather than selling what their customers want to buy. To make sure you're not one of them, here are four quick checks to ensure you're not assuming what your customers want, but rather listening to what they value.
When so much emphasis is put on what we say to promote our business, how we say it and when we say it, it can be easy to forget that sometimes the best sales strategy is to talk less and listen more.
So to remind you, here are five tips to help you make more money by doing less talking. | 2019-04-22T10:55:15 | https://velocitymedia.com.au/blog/?category=Sales+Tips |

Good Girl Gone Redneck: KitKat for breakfast, anyone?
Guess who woke up in the middle of the night last night?
Guess who is cranky this morning?
I'm so tired, even though I did get her back to sleep in her own bed. But this whole *being able to get out of bed business* is a bit rough, especially when I wake up and she's right there beside me, in MY room! She is doing pretty well, and aside from a few early wake ups, she's been sleeping through the night in there. But she has continued to roll out of bed onto the floor nearly every night since we got the thing. I need to remember to bring my camera upstairs so I can document it for the record. She's so out of it when we pick her up and move her back into the bed, and hubby suggested a bed-like swaddle, where we use the blankets to at least "hold her in" somehow. And yet, in her sleep, she manages to break out of them and roll on down.
We've got padding on both sides, blankets and pillows, stuffed animals and random soft things, so she's been bruise-free. But man, the poor thing. We can't tell if she wakes up in the mornings on the floor, or in her bed, because she's not that clear when she's explaining it to us and waffles between both.
Mmmn, waffles, I would love a waffle right now. Have you heard about the EGGO shortage? I'm not kidding. Something about floods or bad weather in the area they're made, and therefore distribution is limited. I haven't figured out if this affects Aunt Jemima or generic, store-brands, though, and I hope not, as we're big on frozen waffles in this house. And yes, we have a waffle maker, but who really wants to deal with that mess? I mean, if you saw my sink right now you'd pity me. Seriously. I should say sinks, as we have the double, and my dishwasher is pretty full and needs to be run, although I JUST RAN IT.
And so, with my allergy angst kicking up again now that I'm healthier (horrific cough at night and horrible fits now and then, when eating, drinking, breathing, you know, the basics) than before and there's room for them, I sit here with itchy eyes, a cranky self and the wish that I had another KitKat in the pantry closet. In the meantime I may just settle for a CapriSun (fruit punch, blech!) and some dry Fruit Loops. Hey, don't knock it til you've tried it!
A Kit Kat for breakfast sounds yummy! Stock up!
That happened with my son. I had the guard rails up on the bed and it helped, but he still managed to kick them out far enough sometimes to fall out.
Have you thought of trying a bed rail for her? They are readily available and should help her stay in bed.
We didn't do those rails, but maybe you should consider it? Not that she's really getting hurt, mind you, but it might give you some peace of mind.
We also put a baby gate at the door to the girls' room at night. Pediatrician suggested it w/ all the night time wandering. It helped pretty quickly. They weren't happy about it at first, but we talked about it a lot, and after 3-4 nights, no one was bothering to get up at all! | 2019-04-19T15:14:56 | https://www.goodgirlgoneredneck.com/2009/11/kitkat-for-breakfast-anyone.html |
