Abstract : [en] In façade applications, structural sealant glazing systems with a soft adhesive like silicones show a number of advantages especially regarding brittle adherends like glass sheets, as stress concentrations in the adherends are avoided due to the large bonding area and the uniform load transfer. The application guideline for structural sealant glazing systems (European Technical Application Guideline ETAG 002) defines a simplified design concept for the silicone sealant, leading to high safety factors and restrictions in use. The material behaviour of the silicone sealant can be more accurately described using the Finite Element Method and hyperelastic material laws, but the results for the stresses at the edge area for a shear dominated loading are highly mesh dependent, due to the presence of a singularity and thus hampering the assessment of the realistic stress distribution. In this paper, shear tests on bonded connections with silicone, referring to the ETAG 002, are presented. Beside the overlap length and adhesive thickness of the specimen prescribed by the standard, two more overlap lengths and thicknesses are tested. For the experimental investigations, the force-deformation behaviour and the failure initiation, observed at the edge area, are recorded. Unlike for the adhesive length, an influence of the specimen thickness on the failure shear strain could be observed and predicted by the numerical simulations. A clear difference between the maximum load and the load at failure initiation was observed. | 2019-04-22T16:28:29 | http://orbilu.uni.lu/handle/10993/27796 |
The East Cleveland Klondike GP provided an exhilarating start to the 2019 HSBC UK National Road Series.
With qualification points for the Tour of Britain at stake, Vitus Pro Cycling Team, powered by Brother UK sent a strong squad determined to maximise their return from such a gruelling engagement.
The Saltburn coastline provided a stunning backdrop as riders from Britain's best domestic teams went wheel-to-wheel on a varied and demanding course, before huge crowds at the roadside.
Cherie Pridham's team played a clever tactical game, placing Adam Kenway in the early breakaway to cover any dangerous moves, before reeling in the escapees and allowing Scott Thwaites to match firepower with eventual winner Rory Townsend (Canyon-dhb p/b Bloor Homes) and British champion Connor Swift (Madison-Genesis), who finished third.
The battle for points in the National Road Series will resume on Sunday May 12, 2019 at arguably the domestic scene's most prestigious one-day race: the Lincoln Grand Prix. | 2019-04-23T20:59:20 | https://www.vitusprocyclingstories.com/east-cleveland-klondike-gp-2019 |
You’d be surprised how much you can shave off your grocery bill using coupons! Be sure to check different places like print circulars, websites and mobile apps.
Don’t go in thinking you can just remember what you need. This always leads to picking up items you don’t need. So make a list and stick to it.
3. Use discount cards/student discounts.
Always check to see if your local grocery store gives student discounts. If not, most of them have discount cards that can help lower the price.
It’s always better to shop when a store is running a promotion.
Usually there is little to no difference between brand name goods and generics. Well, except the price.
6. Don’t buy more than you need.
It’s trendy right now to buy in bulk. And there are advantages to it: it can save you money and it’s better for the environment. But getting more than you need of anything takes up space in your dorm or apartment—not to mention you’re more likely to throw out spoiled food you never got the chance to eat.
7. Eat before you shop.
This is a given. Shopping on an empty stomach means trouble. | 2019-04-24T10:24:24 | https://www.premiumschools.org/student-grocery-budget/ |

We'll set up the industry's leading multi-channel distributed marketing automation solution for you, risk-free. We call it the Quick Start Program, and it's the best way ever to build a business case for marketing automation while delivering measurable results.
With Quick Start, we'll create a branded Distributed Marketing Platform customized for your marketing and sales teams. We'll waive the set up cost, and make you an offer on managed services that include an initial analysis of your materials and processes.
How do you handle collateral & campaigns today?
What marketing and sales tools are you using?
Who supports marketing initiatives now?
What measurable results can we deliver for you?
What are your current sources for prospect data?
What integration opportunities can improve marketing efficiencies?
Whether you're educating, training, and persuading your sales channel (independent or captive agents, wholesalers, VARs, and other resellers) or allowing your channel partners to use the platform to deliver your messages to their customers, you'll find that our proven 1-2-3-4 methodology saves time and money, and increases revenue.
After the assessment, we'll move quickly to take your existing collateral (or create new campaign materials if you prefer) and turn it into optimized multi-channel campaign templates that you can begin using for acquisition (book building) or cross-sell (account rounding) campaigns that will clearly demonstrate the value of the Distribion multi-channel distributed marketing automation solution. You can add customer retention, win-back, or channel education options as well.
Quick Start programs typically last 90 days from planning to completion.
At the end of the program, you can walk away with no further obligation — but so far, no one has. Because once they start leveraging the Distribion distributed marketing platform, they don't want to go back to the slow, manual processes they had before.

Nick Kyrgios has defended himself after telling a fan to ‘f**k off’ during his Miami Open defeat to Borna Coric, saying he was fed up of being heckled.
Having already been warned for smashing his racket earlier in the match, Kyrgios was handed an automatic point penalty which cost him his service game when he dropped the F-bomb.
The Aussie was defending a break point at 2-4 down in the third set when he said, ‘f**k off, man’ to someone in the crowd, losing the game and ultimately the match.
Kyrgios was furious on court, believing umpire Gianluca Moscarella could have done more to quieten the crowd, and explained afterwards that he was longer prepared to take the abuse.
‘They played money to see me play and they just screamed out ridiculous things, and I’m just not going to take it anymore,’ said the 23-year-old.
Kyrgios was livid with Moscarella, saying he did ‘a terrible job’ at the changeover before Coric held his serve to secure a 4-6 6-3 6-2 win as the Aussie crashed out.
The incident marks yet another controversial moment for Kyrgios in Miami, who told an umpire he was ‘a f***king disgrace’ earlier in the week and had an altercation with another fan in his third-round match, with the man ejected by security. | 2019-04-21T14:35:45 | https://metro.co.uk/2019/03/26/nick-kyrgios-speaks-telling-miami-open-fan-fk-off-mid-match-9033112/ |
At the beginning of 2009 I announced that, as part of our efforts to promote LDS blogs, links to the blog content aggregated by Nothing Wavering would begin to be automatically posted on Twitter.
The Twitter outreach has been pretty successful. As of the moment, LDS Blogs have 370 twitter followers, LDS Official has 452 twitter followers, and LDS Bloggers and General Conference have 173 and 212 followers. That means that new posts by Nothing Wavering bloggers are being seen by hundreds of people who are interested in keeping up with LDS topics.
And new followers are continuing to join every day.
Our initial twitter integration used a popular 3rd party service called Twitterfeed. Twitterfeed checked the aggregated RSS feeds from Nothing Wavering at regular intervals, and then posted links to any new content to twitter.
Over the last few months, however, some deficiencies with using twitterfeed became apparent. It would often take an unusual amount of time for twitterfeed to post new content, especially from the LDS official content. It also restricted the maximum number of new items to five for every iteration. Some links failed to ever be posted.
Then, for LDS General Conference, twitterfeed failed to post almost all of the podcast links from the conference.
Twitterfeed also posed some security concerns because it required the Nothing Wavering usernames and passwords to post to twitter.
While twitterfeed has helped get us to where we are, Nothing Wavering needed to be directly integrated with twitter, without relying on a 3rd party system.
Every post in an RSS feed includes a Globally Unique Identifier or GUID that can be used to uniquely identify that post from all others. GUIDs are important because posts titles, post URLs, and post dates often change as people update their posts to correct misspellings, correct ambiguous text, or add updates. Even while all of these other values change, the GUID stays the same, and so when a program like Nothing Wavering or Google Reader reads the feed, it knows to simply update the existing post wit the same GUID instead of creating an all new duplicate post. So if you change the title of your post, Nothing Wavering should simply update the old post instead of creating a duplicate with a different title.
It is apparent that the single Nothing Wavering banner I created does not work in a number of situations, because it is too wide, or doesn’t line up well with other banners. So here are some addtional sidebar banners for Nothing Wavering. Again, if your blog is included on our portal please consider adding the banner or link to your site. It is not required by any means, but would be a great way of promoting and driving readers toward other Nothing Wavering blogs.
Nothing Wavering also has a widget of recent posts from Blogs and the Church that can be embedded into your sidebar. Click on the Embed [HTML] icon on the front page to get the code. The number of post titles that appear, as well as the height and width of the widget can also be customized. | 2019-04-26T02:46:17 | https://nothingwavering.org/blog/ |

On the web site of Swissinfo from the 2nd of February 2019, you can look at a selection of pictures from my book Homo Helveticus.
Didier Ruef has been documenting life in Switzerland for more than 30 years. His book contains a carefully compiled selection of photos of Switzerland and the people who call it home. The Swiss historian Thomas Maissen writes in the foreword to the book: “There is nothing that does not exist in Switzerland.” Perhaps, someone should add to this: and, nothing that the photographer has not captured by his camera in the last 30 years.

Junior Ryan Russell was a workhorse for the Roy-Winifred football team this fall. Russell led the Outlaws in rushing throughout the season. He was also a great leader on defense.
Although the Outlaws did not make the playoffs this season, it was not due to lack of effort on the part of Russell and the rest of the Outlaws.
For his efforts this season, Russell was named to the Southern C Six-Man Football all-conference squad and in addition was named to the six-man all-state team. | 2019-04-26T11:02:52 | https://www.lewistownnews.com/content/athlete-week-35 |

Eventually #fashiontech will be less about coding the cash register and more about where it is placed and that it works when it’s needed. That said I’m trying to figure out how to tie all the components together.

Imagine if Canadian library managers decided not only that they were uninterested in hiring French-speaking staff, but actually banned their staff from speaking French, making signage in French or providing materials in French. Imagine speaking French was dismissed as a frivolous waste of time when people could be productively communicating in English. Imagine they did all this whilst millions of English-speaking Canadians were learning French and starting to speak to other information service providers in French. There would be outrage and bewilderment in the community and among other librarians. Yet this is exactly the scenario in which many library services (and libraries within larger organisations such as Universities) find themselves in relation to social media and mobile online communication more generally.
I’m attending VALA 2012 this week and so far the unifying theme has been social media and making library services mobile-friendly. I hope to absorb many interesting ideas that will find their way to becoming future blog posts, but today’s is really a frustrated plea. Already I have had several conversations with colleagues in the industry who understand where we need to going, but have been stymied by more senior managers or boards who simply don’t or won’t understand what the rise of social media and mobile computing generally means for information service delivery.
The inertia and complacency displayed by the managers of these organisations is mind boggling. Do they honestly think that social computing is a niche fad that is just going to go away? Facebook is about to launch its Initial Public Offering of shares – in the middle of a recession. Documents filed as part of the IPO show that Facebook’s net income last year was US$1 Billion, with 483 million daily active users in December globally. Facebook alone has over 10 million users in Australia – a nation with a total population of only 22 million. And you think it’s just for kids? Of Twitter’s 106 million users worldwide in 2010-11, more than half were 35 years or older. That membership has already doubled in the months since. Some fad.
Telling your community that you don’t want to help them.
Telling your community implicitly that you don’t understand them and the way they interact with interesting people, and by extension that you don’t care about them and their interests.
Telling the world you are marginal and irrelevant to their daily lives.
Social media and the associated instant, personalised mobile information solutions are where libraries must go to ensure we are fulfilling our mandate. This is no longer something than can be allowed to remain with ‘the young ones’ or ‘the techies’. This is fast becoming core knowledge – just as I’m expected to be able to assist a 5 year old to find dinosaur picture books, a 72 year old find a new crime author and a 45 year old find information about writing resumes all on the same desk shift, every librarian needs to understand the dynamics of social and mobile computing and our place, as information professionals, in that world.
VALA 2012 has thrown up all sorts of challenges to the librarians attending: Do you actually understand the back-end of your library management system? Do you know what people are saying about your library service on social media sites? Do you know what keywords your patrons are using on search engines to find your website? How can members communicate with your library when they are waiting for a bus, walking down the street, in a cafe…? Can they do so at all? Is your online presence mobile-optimised? And if the answer to any of these is ‘no’, what are you going to do about it?
Libraries that don’t strongly enter the mobile social computing space will soon find themselves having their own ‘Kodak moment’ – having invested heavily in a once-important service they will wake up one day to find that nobody is interested in what they are providing. For the lucky senior managers this might not come until after they retire, but for the rest of us there are no options. Whomever is ultimately responsible – Boards of management, Communications departments or IT departments – need to either get with the program or get out of the way. Not having a social media presence is, for a library service, the same as refusing to have telephones. Possibly, it’s worse. People aren’t talking about what they ate for lunch on social media – if you’re not around, they’re talking about eating your lunch. They’re talking about what they know and what they want to know. They’re talking about their information needs and wants. They’re talking about your organisation. Are you talking to them?
*in case you were wondering, today’s title is inspired by this article on SOPA.

Ok, firstly, I like the French Canadian analogy.
2. Why should I care about them other than to avoid accidentally applying for a job there?
3. What makes you think they’re reading your blog?
4. How can you tell the difference between “inertia and complacency” and ‘once bitten, twice shy?’ There are countless examples of social media ‘events’ going viral – who wants to be on the wrong end of that? What are the strategies to avoid that, and how long does it take to develop policies and procedures for dealing with social media?
I listen to 774 in the car on my way to the train station; Red Symonds talks to “Harriet Hashtag” around 6:45am in a segment called ‘News from the Tweetguist.” To me that suggests Twitter has cracked the mainstream and is no longer considered a “fad.” This article in today’s Age describes a fairly savvy social media strategy employed by at least one of the big four banks (http://www.theage.com.au/opinion/political-news/backlash-against-big-four-20120211-1syo6.html), again suggesting an acceptance that social media is here to stay.
I wasn’t at VALA, so I didn’t talk to your colleagues, but are they bemoaning the “inertia and complacency” of their managers in regards to social media, or is that merely a symptom of how long it takes to get things done generally, particularly in larger organizations like universities? Guys like you and me like things to happen yesterday, but in a worst case scenario we’ll settle for right now; I’m guessing that the people we talk to at events like VALA are cut from that same cloth.
“Do you actually understand the back-end of your library management system?” Again, not having been at VALA, I don’t know the context, but how important is this? How much do I need to know about internal combustion engines to drive a car? Case in point: of the 10 million Facebook users out there, how many know how it selects the ads that they see? Or of the millions of Google users out there, how many know how the search algorithm works, or even what an algorithm is?
“Boards of management, Communications departments or IT departments – need to either get with the program or get out of the way.” They love hearing this kind of thing, by the way.
“Not having a social media presence is, for a library service, the same as refusing to have telephones. Possibly, it’s worse.” I agree, but as I said, I’m unaware of these library services that don’t have social media presences, and why I should care about them.
In regard to the article that in part inspired this post, Anti-SOPA campaigners are to the left what birthers are to the right.
1. If I wanted to name and shame the organisations and individuals involved I would have done so in my post. But I can say one was a university and another a public library service, both in Melbourne.
2. Because you care about the profession and its capacity to help people, regardless of whether you work for a particular organisation or not.
3. I’m quite sure they’re not reading my blog, but some of their colleagues are and might bring it to their attention. At the least it might give those who are on the right track some confidence in the face of pessimism.
4. This is the difference between organisations that make a decision to be agile and forward-thinking, and those that choose to be risk-averse. If you’re not willing to make lots and lots of mistakes you can’t achieve excellence – as a person or an organisation.
Personally I think the real key is to gave people with the right personality running your communications rather than focussing necessarily on the technicalities. Anyone can learn technically how to post on Twitter, Facebook or whatever (the whole point is that it is so easy) – but ‘social media disasters’ tend to occur when people or organisations forget basic rules of social interaction. Beyond ‘don’t be a dickhead’ there are few special policies required for social media – how long are your ‘answering the telephone’ or ‘talking to people who walk in the door’ policies?
Re social media being mainstream – yes, that’s exactly the point I’m making.
Re backends – I don’t expect the average Facebook user to know or care how it all works. But then again, they’re not information professionals. You don’t need to know how your car works, but if you are a rally car driver it’s going to be pretty useful.
A very thought provoking post Hugh that sure has got me thinking and feeling defensive.
Having been involved in public libraries for many years and as an early adopter of technologies I can empathise with your impatience and frustration about how slow organisations are to adopt things that seem to be obvious.
I had happily mastered the 23 Things technologies long before that was offered as Public Libraries Training for staff, mainly due to my RSS Feed Reader (then Bloglines) and my own personal learning.
Professional and personal development in these fields will most probably depend on the initiative of the individual, for if they wait for their organisation to get with the program they will be left behind. There may still be an element of complacency in our industry.
Now you will be horrified to know we have just put our public libraries presence in Facebook and Twitter into a hiatus after being involved for several years. The reasons for this you describe in your post. Risk – yes. Third party property issues – yes. No organisational policy relating to the use of this media either for the organisation as a whole and for the employees – yes. Lack of resources required to operate in this media channel effectively – yes. Issues raised through SOPA regarding sharing of media – yes.
Not because of ignorance or lack of staff training or staff initiative or wanting to network in this field with our customers.
We maintain our mobile presence for our system technologies and this will remain so and be developed further.
I remain unconvinced that Facebook will remain the tool of choice though and some of that doubt together with the other reasons stated above have led us to discussions that ultimately led to our temporary withdrawal from this field.
Thanks for your real life example – it sounds like you’ve taken exactly the approach I think libraries need – try it out, give it a good go (two years minimum) and if it isn’t working for you, ditch it and try something else. This is quite different to “this new technology is outside of our comfort zone so we’re banning it”.
While I respectfully suggest you’re making a mistake and ‘risk’ regarding social media is massively overstated , I obviously don’t know the specifics of the risks and problems for you.
I’m no particular fan of Facebook – indeed, I really only still have a personal account because that’s how all my friends invite people to social events. I’d love for it to not be the dominant form of social communication but the reality is that it *is* – that’s why I use it as an example. Probably in 5 years we’ll think of it like we do MySpace now.
Finally, I perhaps conflated two different issues a little. The problem I see is not so much that there is ‘an element of complacency in our industry’ (every industry has some late adopters) but rather that many library services (public, special and academic) don’t actually have control over whether they can use social media and other ‘new’ systems/technologies. The librarians may be raring to go, but I keep hearing about libraries where other departments or boards of management hold the power over whether it happens – and are stopping the librarians from doing anything.
Your point of view I think eoyverne is very agree with, I think eoyverne will agree with friends you point of view .Publicity I am in this also provides a to sell very cheap discount store, you worth visiting.

Valley Springs, CA — A Valley Springs man allegedly threw a large a large concrete block through the window of the 76 gas station in Valley Springs.
It happened early yesterday morning, shortly before 4am. The Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office reports that the alarm went off at the business and arriving deputies found 46-year-old Richard Haight in the parking lot, near the broken glass window. Video surveillance helped officials determine that Haight was responsible for the incident. He was arrested for attempted burglary, vandalism and possession of methamphetamine. He also had an outstanding misdemeanor warrant out of Tuolumne County. After being booked into Calaveras County Jail yesterday morning, the sheriff’s office reports that he also allegedly assaulted a fellow inmate. The additional charge is pending. | 2019-04-24T13:55:19 | https://www.mymotherlode.com/news/local/379942/man-arrested-for-meth-and-burglary.html |
Social Studies teachers avoid ELA writing workshops like the plague. This is an exaggeration, of course, but the statement has some validity. So let’s rephrase the statement: most Social Studies teachers don’t want to attend a workshop that doesn’t address their field perspective. Could it be the lack of workshops focused specifically for writing in the general Social Studies classroom? Or could it be the time-consuming task that accompanies student writing, i.e. endless hours of grading?
Teachers of Advanced Placement Social Studies courses know all too well that writing is going to be a key part of their instruction and a significant student expectation. For training many teachers attend AP institutes or obtain coveted access to the world of AP grading to gain better insight. No such writing assessments are attached to any of the STAAR Social Studies examinations.
The lack of writing prompts on state Social Studies assessments may lead to two misconceptions. The first misconception is that students in Social Studies courses don’t have to write. The second misconception is that Social Studies teachers don’t need professional development in the field of writing. These misconceptions couldn’t be further from the truth. If we examine the new TEKS, writing for Social Studies begins in Grade 2, carries through to middle school, and all successive Social Studies courses that follow.
This doesn’t mean that every teacher needs to assign the age-old five paragraph history essay starting tomorrow. In fact it would benefit teachers to examine the student expectations. For example, students in grade 2 are expected to “create written and visual material such as stories, poems, maps, and graphic organizers to express ideas.” In grade 6, students are expected to “create written and visual material such as journal entries, reports, graphic organizers, outlines and bibliographies based on research.” By the time students get to World History, they are expected to “interpret and create written, oral, and visual presentations of social studies information.” This means that students in every Social Studies class should be writing in various ways to authentically demonstrate the historical information that they are learning.
thinking. Writing clarifies thinking. For that matter, writing is thinking.
As a novice teacher, I assigned the classic history essay because that’s what was assigned to me in high school and in college. I believed that my students should learn to write in the very same way. There were significant problems with this thinking. First, I assigned essay writing without any pre-assessment to gauge their writing skills. Second, I didn’t have a strategic plan for a writing process with my students. Third, it took me an exceptionally long time to grade 175 essays. In fact, it took me weeks. I found myself weary, to say the least, upon returning the essays to the students. By that time, the students didn’t care about it anymore. Last, nothing else was done on my part to address inaccuracies that should have impacted my instruction. In all honesty, I didn’t know how to.
The longer I taught, the more I learned and began to understand that writing needed to be approached differently. I started assigning manageable short response writing. “Snippet” writing became the operative word for short paragraph response writing that the students would complete. I could get the writing responses back to the students in a relatively quick time frame, while assessing if they understood what they were learning. What I was doing, without knowing it, was focusing my attention on formative assessment rather than summative assessment. I was learning how to create a process for writing that worked for both my students and me. The essay wasn’t exactly phased out, but rather worked in over time. Additionally, I staggered the complete essays at intervals for different classes so that I wouldn’t assign myself to weeks of grading purgatory (a useful tip suggested to me by my principal). Overall, it was a lot of trial and error, but I didn’t give up; I just restructured.
In November, the co-creators of the DBQ Project (Document Based Questioning) will lead two workshops at Region XIII specifically geared for Social Studies, but open to teachers of English Language Arts. The hope is that teams of teachers will work together to collaborate and learn strategies to help students become better analytical thinkers. Teachers will be led through DBQ analysis of primary sources to the development process of the written DBQ.
What we recognize most of all is that writing is a process. For the teacher, if it is paired adequately with the content, it will not take away from instruction, but serve to improve it.

Assessment seems to be all anyone is talking about in education these days. Well, okay, a few people might have mentioned school financing, but STAAR, EOC, Reference Documents (the documents previously known as formula charts), and the just-released STAAR sample items… oh you hadn’t heard about those? Yes, they were released by TEA on September 30, 2011, and can be found online. And, since I know teachers in tested grades are going to want to look at those, go ahead. Visit http://www.tea.state.tx.us/student.assessment/staar/ and look them over, then come back and finish this article in which I am going to give suggestions on utilizing standardized questions to design formative assessment experiences which can be integrated into student notebooks.
Standardized assessments serve a purpose in that they help to judge the effectiveness of different curricula and approaches to instruction, districts, and even teachers; but the results often inform us as to which TEKS a group of students or even an individual student have not mastered without providing insight as to what they do not understand or why. In order to understand students’ thought processes, assessments must be written that allow for open-ended response, problem solving steps to be shown, and for students to be forced to confront common misconceptions side-by-side with the scientifically- based explanation of a phenomena and decide which explanation they hold to be true. When these types of assessments are conducted throughout the learning process for the benefit of both teacher and student, then we call them formative assessments. Renowned National Science Teacher Association (NSTA) author Page Keeley in her book Science Formative Assessment: 75 Practical Strategies for Linking Assessment, Instruction, and Learning, defines formative assessment as “assessment for learning” (Keeley, 2008). Summative exams such as STAAR are considered to be assessments of learning in that they do not provide learning opportunities to students. Both types of assessments may provide information that informs curriculum and instruction, but it is how the assessments impact a student that is the key. In her book Keeley provides 75 Formative Assessment Classroom Techniques (FACTs). Two types I have chosen to focus on are justified lists and card sorts.
Justified lists can be used as pre-assessments (for example, a biology teacher might ask about producers before beginning a lesson on food webs) or to assess learning after the explanation phase of instruction (as would be the case when a 5th grade teacher uses the producer list). They can be conducted in tandem with a think, pair, share to allow students to discuss and refine their ideas or they can be integrated into a unit assessment in which case the list should include some new examples the students might not have previously been confronted with.
Integrating justified lists into science notebooks is easy. The question, justified list and prompt can be made to fit on half a sheet of paper which students can glue or tape into their notebook at the top so the paper can be lifted up and the rule which the student used and their justification can then be written directly on the notebook paper.
In addition to Science Formative Assessment, Keeley has written a series of books entitled Uncovering Student Ideas is Science. All are available through NSTA at http://www.nsta.org/store/. An example chapter from one of Keeley’s probe books that includes a justified list can be found online at http://www.nsta.org/store/product_detail.aspx?id=10.2505/9780873552554. Scroll down just a bit under details and click on the link next to Read Inside.
Another type of formative assessment is a card sort. Card sorts are designed in such a way that students sort a set of cards with either terms or pictures on them into two or more categories. For example, during an 8th grade lesson utilizing the periodic table students might sort terms such as metallic appearance, non-metal, semiconductors, conductors, non-conductors, etc. onto an outline of the periodic table that has been divided into non-metals, metals, and metalloids such as that seen in the 8th grade 2011 Released Question number 3. The cards that students sort could also include the symbols or names of some elements they are familiar with and pictures of some of the more common elements.
To really make students think, make the number of cards unequal in each category. For example have 7 cards belong under non-metals, while only 6 belong under metals. Another way of making the activity more rigorous is to include cards that will not be used. When I taught Biology I included two cards that said “Does Not Contain DNA” and four cards that said “Does Contain DNA” for my sort of characteristics and example organisms for the six kingdoms. When students said they seemed to be missing “Does Contain DNA” cards and that they had cards that didn’t belong anywhere (such as the “HIV” card) they were demonstrating understanding and mastery on a higher level than if they had done a one-to-one matching activity.
Card sorts can be integrated into notebooks through questions or stems about why certain cards were put into categories, such as having students complete the statement, “I placed ________________ in the kingdom _____________ because…” or “We had the hardest time deciding where ____________ goes because…” You can also make the sort one that students cut apart themselves and then glue into a graphic organizer in their notebook so students can review their written justifications while observing the results of their sort. Alternatively, you can use pockets where students can replicate the sort and practice on their own. This is especially useful for more difficult concepts or content that is being introduced for the first time.
Example science card sorts produced by ESC Region XIII are available online at http://www5.esc13.net/science/resources/manipulatives.html.
Notice how, regardless of which formative assessment strategy or technique is chosen, it is the way in which the strategy is utilized and the guiding and probing questions asked by the teacher that provide the depth and rigor required by STAAR. Formative assessments must be developed and designed in such a way that yes, informs instruction, but the main purpose should be for students to recognize and confront their own misunderstandings and begin to correct them. A quiz, given to students working silently and independently that is then graded by the teacher with the only feedback to the student being a grade, is not considered formative.
STAAR 2011 Released Test Questions. Accessed online at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/student.assessment/staar/, October 1, 2011.
Formative assessments are an integral part of the instruction process, providing feedback to both the teacher and student with the goal of improving learning. Without formative assessments, teachers wouldn’t be able to make timely adjustments to instruction to ensure student mastery. These adjustments can be anything from a re-teach for those who did not master the concept to an enrichment activity allowing students to apply their concept/skill in a new way.
Exit tickets (Fisher and Frey, 2004 ) and SOS Summaries (Dodge, 2009) are two quick, easy, prep-free ways to assess FOR learning.
Exit Tickets are slips of paper or index cards in which students respond to a prompt or question pertaining to the day’s lesson. The question or prompt shouldn’t take more than 3-4 minutes to complete. Often they are referred to as “tickets out the door” because students cannot leave the classroom until they have handed the teacher their response. After all the responses are collected, the teacher reviews them and uses the information on them to determine what adjustments need to be made to instruction. The teacher determine which students (if any) need a re-teach, which students need additional practice through a reinforcing or elaborating activity, and which students showed mastery of the lesson and can move onto an enrichment activity. Fisher, D., and Frey, N. (2004) point out that there are three categories of Exit Ticket prompts.
Summarize today’s lesson in 25 carefully chosen words.
Write three things you would say to explain this to a younger child (or adult).
Choose one word that summarizes today’s lesson. Explain why you chose that word.
What would you like to review during the next session?
How did you feel about__?
What did you do to participate today?
What is something you are doing to help yourself learn? Rate your understanding of today’s topic from 1-10 and explain WHY you rated yourself that.
The S-O-S Summary (Dodge, 2009) is a formative assessment that ELAR teachers can use before, during or after instruction.
Before: to assess student attitudes, beliefs, and knowledge about a topic.
During: to assess what students are coming to understand about the topic.
After: to assess if attitudes and beliefs have been influenced or changed as a result of new learning and if they can better support their opinion.
Student reads the statement provided by the teacher.
Student decides if he/she agrees or disagrees with the statement.

Every day in classrooms across Texas, technology tools are infused with quality instruction to boost engagement, simplify learning task management, differentiate for diverse learning needs and increase learning through exposure to content with multiple modalities. Educators have who embrace the transformative power of learning with technology can also take advantage of the opportunities available for assessment for learning, a.k.a – Formative Assessment.
• Who is and who is not understanding the lesson?
• What are this student’s strengths and needs?
• What misconceptions do I need to address?
• What feedback should I give students?
• What adjustments should I make to instruction?
• How should I group students?
Here are a few notable technology tools that are simple to integrate and get powerful results when it comes to student quickly taking the “pulse” of learning to formatively assess student progress.
Socrative.com is “a smart student response system that empowers teachers to engage their classrooms through a series of educational exercises and games via smartphones, laptops, and tablets.” In short, it allows teachers to create a variety of short assessments, such as quizzes and exit tickets, that can be taken from any web enabled device. The interface is extremely kid-friendly, even for young students. Best of all, it does not require student accounts, but still provides somewhat detailed student performance data by name via secure e-mailed excel file directly to the teacher. Visit http://www.socrative.com for a preview. The site says it is in beta as of this writing, but you can go to http://t.socrative.com (teacher tool) and http://m.socrative.com (student interface) and grab an account and start assessing right away. Easy to learn… easy to use.
Use Todaysmeet.com http://todaysmeet.com to quickly and easily set up an online place for students to post comments, questions, and answer your prompts. Again, this does site does not require students to have accounts, and the posts expire after a time you decide, allowing for “easy cleanup” while still giving access to absent students. You simply set up the room (one click) and share the URL. Try this site for your next “exit ticket”.
You’ve heard the buzz, and perhaps had some professional work experience in Project Share as a Texas educator, but in case you are unaware, the project is now open for student enrollment and you are encouraged to use the learning management system with your students. (Note: talk to your district and your Education Service Center about student accounts). With the Epsilen platform (Project Share’s engine) you and your students can interact in a robust virtual learning environment that allows you to share files, use forums for discussion, real time chats for, full featured test/quiz making suite (and associated grade tools), wikis for collaborative writing, blogs for student publishing, electronic portfolios with interactive assessment rubrics and much more. Having all of these tools in one, safe, uniform and free platform opens up a treasure trove of formative assessment opportunities. For more information, feel free to check out our blog at http://www5.esc13.net/thescoop/instructionaltech or the State’s official page at http://www.projectsharetexas.org. Also, feel free to contact Region XIII’s Project Share team at [email protected] for more information and to inquire about training.

Now that we have had a great start to our school year, what have you been doing for your teachers and their appraisals? At this point you and the other appraisers should have completed multiple walkthroughs for every teacher on campus. Formal appraisals should be well underway, along with help for your teachers who have been identified as needing more assistance. As the State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness (STAAR) approaches, what do you need to look for in the classroom to insure success?
Look for student engagement. Are students authentically engaged, compliant, or not engaged in the lesson? Know what each level of engagement looks like before entering the classroom.
When you view weekly lesson plans, are they aligned with the state standards, and are you seeing that same alignment in the classroom instruction?
Do the teachers know what you are looking for in the classroom? Make sure they know up front, and then let them know when you are and aren’t seeing it.
Of course, just because the formal appraisal has been completed, your support for the teachers is not finished. Looking for best practices by means of consistent walkthroughs in every classroom on campus will occur throughout the school year. | 2019-04-25T00:50:31 | http://www5.esc13.net/thescoop/insight/category/sy11-12/issue-2/ |

In the somewhat big business model that Bon Appétit works in , we value relationships with suppliers as a true partnership. Especially with the smaller, local, non-corporate types like our farmers, ranchers and artisans. The cultures are very different and we work hard at understanding each other. We forgive when them the strawberries come in a bit over-ripe or the greens a little dirtier then usual. They understand when we get a little huffy about late deliveries. We are grateful when a farmer calls at the last minute to tell us they are sitting on 500 cases of beautifully sweet ripe peaches that need to move. We believe we’re getting something special and we act quickly to create a region wide promotion. They are grateful when we send our managers to the orchards to pick up and deliver the peaches to our cafes.
Sometimes, our partners get in trouble and we feel compelled to jump in give them a hand. This week I talked with one of our many partner David Evans, who owns a small ranch operation in No. California called Marin Sun Farms. His grass fed beef is served at several of our San Francisco units. We’ve watched him grow his business with us and we feel a responsibility to his success. I called him because I had heard that the local slaughter house, where David takes his animals, is on the market for sale to an urban developer. This is typical of what is happening to much of our farm land in this country. The loss of a local slaughter house in this region would be devastating to small ranchers like David AND to the many eaters who enjoy the great flavors these ranchers send our way.
I called because I wanted to know what the issue was. I wanted to understand how this would impact his operation. I wanted him to know that we would do what we could to help him through this. Fortunately David is bright young dynamic man who is moving fast with a solution for himself and his small ranch peers in No CA. Not surprising. When I first met him a few years ago, he had a strong vision of how he was going to change the supply chain. Just less then a year ago, floods in No. CA destroyed a new business venture and set him back big time. Now, while facing another challenge, he is even more determined to keep moving his business moving forward. After our phone conversation, David knows that if he needs to he can call on us. See, we’re partners. We’ll put on our somewhat big business 10 gallon hat, and figure somethin’ out. | 2019-04-23T20:32:04 | http://www.bamco.com/blog/partner_let_us_/ |
The efficacy of potassium sorbate (K-sorb) as an antifungal, alone or combined with thiabendazole (TBZ), and hot water at 53 °C, was studied against blue mold on apples. Results demonstrated the fungistatic effect of K-sorb: 2000 mg L−1 significantly reduced Penicillium expansum growth, and a 24 h delay in fungi development was observed in the amended liquid culture. K-sorb at 1% significantly diminished decay incidence, especially when applied at 53 °C. The performance of TBZ was not improved by the co-application of K-sorb. Treatments efficacy was related to K-sorb distribution on fruit surface. ESEM and X-ray qualitative spectra analyses revealed an irregular distribution of K-sorb over the fruit surface and areas with salt accumulation. K-sorb residues remained quite unchanged until 3 d of storage then they declined progressively. Their degradation was influenced by water temperature: it was faster on fruit treated at 53 °C. An inverse relation between P. expansum growth and K-sorb concentration was observed. After 72 h of incubation, P. expansum depleted 99% of K-sorb from liquid culture media.
The low efficacy of K-sorb treatments against blue mold decay on apple fruit may be ascribed to the low persistence of K-sorb residues, to the irregular spatial distribution of the salt on the fruit surface, and the ability of P. expansum to degrade the salt. | 2019-04-20T18:36:57 | http://eprints.uniss.it/10892/ |

Are you living with an active opiate or opioid addiction?
472 people died of opiate-related deaths in Colorado in 2015, almost twice the amount of deaths due to homicide (205). Opiate-related deaths have surpassed homicides every year since 2011.
Although heroin and prescription opioids are not as impactful of an issue in Colorado as they are in other states, the death rate due to overdose continues to rise each year.
As the trend continues, deaths due to opiates could surpass those due to firearms and even diabetes in the state of Colorado.
The entire United States reflects the alarming uptick in opiate-related deaths as well. 33,091 individuals died of a heroin or opioid overdose in 2015, making up more than half of the 52,404 drug overdose deaths in 2015.
Nearly 2.6 million people ages 12 and older live with a substance use disorder involving prescription opioids, heroin, or both. Almost 1 out of every 4 people who try heroin develop an opiate addiction. The rising trend of opiate and opioid addiction shows no sign of stopping soon as rates continue rising every year.
Addiction is not a disease with a cure. Although it can be managed, relapse is common. A reported 40 to 60 percent of addicts relapse at some point in their life, with actual rates likely even higher. Relapse doesn’t mean you are a failure but each relapse is dangerous and like playing a game of Russian Roulette. You never know which high could be your last.
As prescription opioid and heroin rates rise each year, solutions for the addiction epidemic become increasingly necessary. Vivitrol shots are one such solution. Vivitrol is a revolutionary medication intended to decrease the chance of relapse.
Are you living with an active opiate or opioid addiction? Could the use of Vivitrol shots help keep you sober during early recovery? Continue on to learn more about Vivitrol and its uses, side effects, using drugs and drinking on Vivitrol, and how to find a doctor to prescribe Vitriol shots near you.
What is Vivitrol and How is it Used to Help You Stay Sober?
Vivitrol is an injectable medication prescribed to recovering addicts, used to manage cravings and block the effects of opiates and opioids. The active ingredient in shots of Vivitrol is Naltrexone, a common drug taken by opiate and opioid addicts in early recovery. Prescription Vivitrol is offered only as an intramuscular shot administered once a month.
Vivitrol shots function by blocking the euphoria and sedation experienced on a heroin or prescription opioid high. By rendering you unable to get “high,” they help limit the chance of relapse.
By beginning treatment with the new Vivitrol services offered at AspenRidge Recovery, you can establish a solid foundation of sobriety. You will receive an individualized treatment plan with a combination of medication management and therapy with the support of a qualified and compassionate team.
Vivitrol vs. Suboxone – Are They the Same Thing?
Suboxone is a Buprenorphine and Naltrexone medication used to manage opiate and opioid withdrawal symptoms. Doctors often use it during the detoxification period and wean you off of it due to its high potential for addiction. Suboxone is also an opioid medication and should be used only under your doctor’s supervision.
Vitriol shots are used as a longer-term medication to help prevent relapse. It is not a detoxification medication. Vivitrol should be used only after the detox period is complete, at least 7 to 10 days after the last time you use opiates. There is little chance of you becoming addicted to Vivitrol, and much less likely than addiction to Suboxone.
Both Suboxone and Vivitrol are used as long-term medications for opiate and opioid addiction treatment. Suboxone has proved to be more effective when used for the long-term or followed up with a medication like Vitriol. If you only use Suboxone to detox and then nothing afterwards, your chances of relapse are higher.
However, comparing the functioning of Vivitrol vs. Suboxone shows the difference in their operation. Suboxone is an opioid that works by activating the opioid receptors to reduce cravings. Vivitrol is not an opioid and blocks opioid receptors to keep opiates and opioids from working. This is why people become addicted to Suboxone and not Vivitrol; Suboxone is essentially a replacement opioid.
The benefit of Suboxone vs. Vivitrol is the lower cost. A monthly dose of Vivitrol costs between $800 and $1,000 without insurance, almost twice the amount of a month’s supply of Suboxone. This makes Suboxone a more accessible method of treatment, but it is important not to miss a dose.
Doctors recommend taking both Suboxone and Vivitrol for around a year. This allows you time to develop proper relapse prevention methods and coping skills necessary for long-term recovery. Without these skills, relapse is inevitable, regardless of your medication treatment. Just like any other disease, you need to actively treat your addiction after the medication portion of treatment is over.
Vivitrol shots can provide incredible benefits to your life, such as giving you time to recover from your addiction. You can develop the skills necessary to succeed while clean and sober. It gives you a time cushion. Vivitrol does not come without its side effects, though.
Vivitrol shots come with more serious side effects, too. One of the most important side effects to keep in mind is the risk of death from overdose. Since Vivitrol functions as an opioid blocker, it prevents you from getting high. Some people try to overcome the blockers by using greater amounts of opiates or opioids which results in serious health complications, coma, or even death.
Vivitrol shots also lower your tolerance to opiates and opioids. A typical dose for you before you got clean has the potential to harm or kill you once you stop taking Vivitrol. You are particularly at risk right before a shot, if you suddenly stop taking the medication, and once your treatment is over. You must remain mindful of the increased risk involved when taking Vivitrol.
If any of these signs appear and last for two weeks or more, talk to your doctor.
Vitriol shots can sometimes cause a depressed mood, leading to suicide, suicidal thoughts, or suicidal behavior.
Taking Vivitrol shots near you can also treat alcohol dependence so drinking on Vivitrol is highly discouraged. You should never use drugs while on Vivitrol, especially opiates or opioids.
Vivitrol costs a lot, especially without insurance. If you are part of an inpatient program like that at AspenRidge Recovery, though, oftentimes the cost of Vivitrol shots is included with your treatment. Inpatient treatment is a great opportunity to begin Vivitrol treatment and allow your body the opportunity to adjust to the medication.
If you do not attend inpatient drug and alcohol rehab, you can receive a prescription for Vivitrol from your doctor. Any doctor who can prescribe medication can be a Vivitrol doctor. You will report back monthly to the doctor’s office to receive your intramuscular Vivitrol shot.
Are you wondering, “How can I get a Vivitrol shot near me?” begin by making an appointment with your primary care physician. They will determine the best course of action and either develop a treatment plan or refer you to another facility.
Receiving Vivitrol shots near you is possible regardless of where you are. Any doctor who can prescribe medication can prescribe you Vivitrol. The best way to receive treatment, though, is through a qualified addiction rehabilitation facility. When you attend inpatient treatment at AspenRidge Recovery, our staff will determine the best course of care for your situation.
How Can You Find a Vivitrol Shot Near You?
The first step to find out about Vivitrol treatment is to consult with your primary care physician. Your doctor can either prescribe the medication or direct you to a specialist who can.
Remember, you need to be completely detoxified from opiates or opioids before starting. The Vivitrol website suggests at least 7 to 14 days clean. Attending a detox facility can help you get clean from the opiates in order to begin Vivitrol treatment.
The best way to receive Vivitrol shot treatment is through a specialized addiction treatment facility. When you attend inpatient rehab at AspenRidge Recovery, Vivitrol is included as part of your individualized treatment program. Those who receive injections must also actively meet with their psychiatrist to work on their mental health and learn appropriate behaviors to avoid relapse.
Attending an addiction rehab center provides well-rounded care both through medication and therapy services. With the help of addiction treatment you will learn to manage life sober during individual and group therapy.
Vivitrol shots help relieve cravings and block the effects of opioids and opiates, but Vivitrol alone will not keep you sober. Although it keeps you from getting high, you can stop the treatment at any time and get loaded again. The only way to achieve long-term sobriety, with or without Vivitrol, is to develop the proper habits to keep you sober.
Vivitrol shots work best when used in combination with one-on-one counseling, group therapy, or 12-step meeting participation. No drug can keep you sober on its own, especially if you do not put in the work on your end. It takes practice to learn to live life without drugs when they have been your go-to coping mechanism for years. Without replacing that coping mechanism with a healthy one, relapse is inevitable.
Through the therapeutic support provided with your Vivitrol treatment at AspenRidge Recovery, you develop a community of people to hold you accountable. From your treatment team to your peers in group, everyone involved with your recovery has your sobriety in mind. Since you receive the best results with Vivitrol when they’re combined with therapy and counseling, attending treatment at AspenRidge Recovery simplifies the process.
The most important thing to remember is that you should never use drugs or drink while on Vivitrol. Mixing alcohol and drugs with the medication can cause serious complications. Be aware of any side effects of the Vivitrol shots and inform your doctor if they arise.
To ensure the best chance of success with your Vitriol treatment, continue to attend counseling, group therapy, or a 12-step program.
These programs will provide the groundwork for you to learn how to live life clean and sober. Without the help of your fellows in recovery, staying sober will prove difficult. Keep in close contact with your counselor or group during your Vivitrol treatment to make sure you receive the best outcome possible.

It’s been quite a while since both of us had a beach holiday, I think the last one was Bali? Since there’s less events during the Puasa month, we decided to head over to PD for a short holiday. This is also the 1st time Kendric went for an away trip (If you want to read about Kayden’s 1st trip, click here) being 7 months old.
We stayed at the Thistle Hotel, got it a promo price of RM300 per night from latestays.com. The hotel is nice and cozy with a very big swimming pool. The last time I was there was during my Amex days where we had our teambuilding, at that time, it’s still called Guoman.
Spacious bedroom with 2 single beds, and plenty of room for Kendric to walk around in his walker.
There’s also a day bed by the window which is a great spot to do some portrait shots.
Another shot with Kayden and Kendric.
This is also Kayden’s first time to the beach.
Kayden playing the sand cautiously, I think he doesn’t like to get his hands dirty.
Prefer to play the bubble machine more!
Swimming in the kids pool with 2 arm floats. There’s a water slide in the pool as well and after I brought him once on the slide (with me ended up losing my specs in the water), he’s brave enough to do it on his own…until May decided to let him off the slide sideways. He ended up not playing with it anymore.
The view at night. Both of them ended up very tired and slept early.
A very sleepy Kayden, while waiting for breakfast. The buffet spread in the restaurant was alright and there’s lots of people despite being a Monday, guess a lot of people take the day off as well.
Kendric’s first time in the pool, and also peeing the first time in the pool.
At first he was just licking all over the float but after a while he started kicking the water.
Whenever Kayden needs to pee, he will come up from the water and requested to go to pee. You don’t see that in a lot of 2 year olds I guess?
Today marks the 4th anniversary of our ROM…heading for a small feast tonight. | 2019-04-26T01:18:23 | http://jordantan.com/2012/08/kendrics-7th-month-at-port-dickson/ |
The Green Street Pod was an experiment to see if an existing block could be retrofitted with GI facilities without impacting existing parking. The curved PODs appear to “flow” down the block and facilitate pedestrian movement. A total of 5 PODs are installed along NE Davis in Portland, OR which manage runoff from two blocks of public right-of-way. | 2019-04-25T18:08:02 | https://www.juncusstudio.com/green-street-pod-infrastructure/ |

AutoIt3.exe has encountered a problem.
Code is attached. You will notice I do not have much error handling in there.
This script is used on a Motorola SmartZone Radio system management terminal.
It pulls up radio records and compares them to a CSV of radios that have been field inventoried.
It changes the record in the Motorola DB to match the CSV.
Since some radio IDs may the assigned to other SNs, the record may have to be deleted and new record built.
I built most the script with the recorder and do not know much about the more complicated commands. | 2019-04-20T00:58:34 | https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/35132-autoit3exe-has-encountered-a-problem/ |
UCSD is a great campus if you're enrolled in one of the science majors, and offers one of the best biology/chemistry programs in the state. The teachers seem to be very involved in their own research, but they definitely know their subject matter.
Lower division classes are jammed full (on average, there are approx. 300 students in the introductory classes) but once you start getting further up in your major, you'll see that classes become much smaller and much more personalized. I was fortunate enough have upper division standing my first year, so I got to experiment with upper division classrooms, and the atmostphere was wonderful.
UCSD also has a college system: Muir, Revelle, Thurgood Marshall, Roosevelt, Warren and 6th College. Each college offers a different space for on-campus living (architecture differs as well) and different GEs. Other than that, it really makes no difference which one you choose. Heads up for the froshies—Revelle has the toughest GEs and Muir offers the lightest. The reshalls and apartments at Muir aren't exactly wonderful (I've heard them referred to as "cement tombstones") but I've heard rave reviews for the Marshall uppers and Pepper Canyon. Roosevelt has newly built reshalls and dining facilities (as of 2003) and is located by a large parking lot (important as you will see later).
Parking is a big negative at UCSD. More permits are sold than spots, but that doesn't detract from the cost of the permits, which make a hefty dent in one's pocket. Students who live on the farthest, north-east section of campus (AKA Warren) at times are forced to park in the far SOUTH-WEST side of campus (AKA Revelle). Shuttles are constantly running throughout the work-week in order to get students to and from the farther parking lots. They're always full when I see them rush on past.
As for the social scene, it's there if you can find it, you just have to look hard enough. Unlike UCLA, which has Westwood, UCSD is not quite as close to shops, malls, theaters, etc. though they do exist… merely farther down the street. I've had to take the city shuttle to the mall, so unless you get to know the bus route or have a friend with a car, you won't be getting very far on your own. | 2019-04-18T21:16:39 | https://www.studentsreview.com/viewprofile.php3?k=1066880278&u=206 |

January 18, 2017 Update - Dr. Credit Card is back!
This is Sean, aka Dr. Credit Card. First of all, I would like to wish every reader of the site a happy 2017! It is pretty crazy that the last blog post was almost two months ago - I bought a new house and moved in recently and have been unable to keep up. Even though there have been updates on the site here and there, I wish more could have been done. Now we have been slowly settling in, the site should be back to normal. Here are some highlights of the recent updates.
Our No. 1 credit card Chase Sapphire Reserve is now offering an online signup bonus of 50K points, down from 100K that was offered since its introduction in August 2016. However, you can still receive the 100K bonus when you walk into a branch and apply. Note that the infamous 5-24 rule (you will be denied the new account when you have opened 5 or more new credit cards in the past 24 months) still applies when you do that. Hurry up if you haven't got this amazing card - source says the in-branch 100K offer will last through March but you never know if Chase decides to pull it earlier.
Barclays has made American Airlines Aviator Red MasterCard available to new customers, with a signup bonus of 40K. This means Citi is no longer the sole issuer of American Airlines' credit card products. We welcome the competition.
We are very sad to see one of our favorite card for perks Chase Fairmont Visa has been discontinued for new applications due to Accor's acquisition of Fairmont, Raffles, Swissotel. Fairmont Visa has been offering an amazing signup bonus (two free nights, possibly in a suite, plus breakfasts) and is also one of the credit cards to keep paying annual fees without spending a dime.
Chase Southwest Plus Visa's 50K offer is back. While the higher annual fee Southwest Premier Visa has been offering 50K, it has been a while since last time we saw Plus Visa's 50K offer.
Citi has increased the signup bonus of Citi Prestige from 40K to 50K, while decreasing the signup bonus of the ThankYou Premier from 40K to 30K.
Doctor, welcome back! Is there a way to apply for Aviator Silver and get a bonus?
Currently there is no way to apply Aviator Silver and get a signup bonus. You have to request the upgrade from Aviator Red to make the product change.
Welcome back ... really appreciate the content provided for this website. Very informative. Thanks. | 2019-04-20T05:11:17 | http://www.drcreditcard.net/blog/january-18-2017-update-dr-credit-card-is-back |

Corner location and smaller tasting room, but staff was very happy and knowledgeable, even directing us to other winery locations. We like semi-sweet to sweet wines and they provided. Tasted 6 wines and bought all but 1.
It’s street corner, metal building entrance to the tasting room didn’t create the best first impression or ambiance for me. But up the hill they have nicer grounds and there is actually some nice outdoor seating areas back at the tasting room too. Go there with a few friends on a nice fall day or evening and the ambiance would be just fine. We liked several of the wines here. The price points on many of them were very nice as well. We liked their Norton. My wife thought it was very good. She felt it had a buttery undertone that she hadn’t picked up in any other Nortons. I couldn’t make this flavor out myself but I still felt this was a nice Norton at a 3+ to 4 stars. They were sold out of their Norton Reserve so it might have been better yet. I liked their Reserve Red which is a blend of Norton, Chambourcin and St. Vincent. As I tasted their Chambourcin, I thought it was rather flat compared to their Nortons. The hostess pointed out that this Chambourcin is a great compliment to foods such as pizza and its lighter character wouldn’t overpower the food. Upon a few more sips and taking her words in, I concede her point. Their Chambourcin as a table wine is nice too. Finally, I liked their unoaked Chardonnel at a ridiculously low price of $9.13 a bottle. Then there is their Vintage Port which is a very special Port and again at a very reasonable price. This Port is a solid 4 stars.
The server there was almost bitter that other wineries in the area charge for tastings and she did not. Almost proud that she gave away free booze. After tasting the blackberry wine, I wouldn't charge for it either. Awkward place. Vignoles was okay.
The very best wines in Augusta and probably in Missouri. Prices are very reasonable. Love the dry reds. I can't say enough good about this winery. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.
Nice Norton, Chambourcin, and Reserve Red blend of Chambourcin, Norton and St. Vincent. The 05 Norton was spectacular, and the 07, which they're serving now, is nice, but not as great as the 05. Very knowledgeable staff and cozy tasting room. With a small fee, you can have a special Norton tasting which will allow you to take a Reidel Norton glass home. This was the best Norton of the Augusta wineries.
Norton Wine Review: Augusta's Norton "Cynthiana" is a good standard by which to judge other Missouri Norton wines. It is a very good Norton wine which tends to be a bit "cherried" intense in flavors, yet dry in taste. Like all Augusta's wines, this Norton is a bit more reasonable in cost compared to other vineyards.
Some of the best wine in Augusta. Also the best prices for great wine. They just opened a nice wine patio and serve beer.
bought their norton blend. needs to age 3 years. people very nice. parking difficult. good website. Bought a case of the reserve red. some bottles were good, some were not, some were passable. Won't buy again. | 2019-04-24T02:16:11 | http://www.catchwine.com/wineries/missouri/augusta_winery/ |

Matchups for the 2018 ACC/Big Ten Women’s Basketball Challenge were announced Monday, revealing Purdue’s meeting with the University of Miami in Mackey Arena on Thursday, Nov. 29.
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (Purdue Sports) — Matchups for the 2018 ACC/Big Ten Women’s Basketball Challenge were announced Monday, revealing Purdue’s meeting with the University of Miami in Mackey Arena on Thursday, Nov. 29. The contest completes the Boilermakers’ 2018-19 non-conference schedule, giving fans nine chances to watch their team play at home before Big Ten play begins late December.
The meeting will be the sixth all-time between the Boilermakers and Hurricanes, and the first-ever in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge. Purdue holds a 3-2 advantage in series history, which was all played between 1984 and 1991. The Hurricanes won the last meeting, edging the 10th-ranked Boilermakers in Coral Gables, Florida 65-63, and snapping Purdue’s three-game win streak in the series.
The Hurricanes finished 21-11 in 2017-18, earning a No. 8 seed in the NCAA Tournament, but falling in the first round to Quinnapiac 86-72. Miami tied for sixth in the ACC at 10-6 in conference play. The top returners for the Hurricanes are 2018 ACC All-Freshman honorees Mykea Gray and Kelsey Marshall. Gray was Miami’s No. 2 scorer last season at 11.7 points per game, starting all 32 games for the Hurricanes, while Marshall came off the bench to add 8.0 points per game.
Season tickets for the 2018-19 Purdue women’s basketball season are on sale, and can be renewed or purchased through the Purdue Athletics Ticket Office.

First Reformed is solid gold. The film is striking on a visual level because every shot is rich with balance, depth and artful levels of symmetry; despite the fact that the film is presented in an unusual aspect ratio, it pulls its viewers in with nonstop beautiful photography. Meanwhile, a thought-provoking story unfolds with some of the best acting we’ve seen from each elite performer. The entire cast (from Hawke to Seyfried to Cedric Kyles) delivers fantastic performances that are essential in bringing the chilling messages of the film home.
The story is expectedly spiritual and surprisingly political. The pace of the film is deliberate and switches seamlessly between snapshots and extended takes. The scoring slowly builds its ominous tone and the effects are tastefully done. Every aspect of First Reformed is built with intention that serves its sobering themes. Ultimately, First Reformed‘s elite qualities combined into an experience that is more than a movie, it is a piece of art. If you like technique, you will love First Reformed. | 2019-04-20T04:26:13 | https://thefilmguys.blog/reviews/augusts-reviews/first-reformed-2018/ |
Boston, MA 10/24/2013 (wallstreetpr) – Alcoa Inc (NYSE:AA) announced the formation of a new joint venture with VSMPO-AVISMA Corporation. VSMPO-AVISMA Corp. is a leading manufacturer of titanium ingots and forged products in Russia. The JV will develop high end titanium and aluminum products for the fast growing aerospace industry and is expected to be operational by 2016. The aerospace industry is growing at 9-10%. The industry is always in search of lighter materials to decrease fuel costs and increase efficiencies. The materials also have to withstand high stress levels. The JV hopes to develop and manufacture high-end components like landing gear and wing components. The V is a marriage between Alcoa’s expertise in manufacturing with VSMPO-AVISMA’s expertise in production of titanium. It is a win-win situation for both parties as Alcoa will increase its competitiveness and market share in the aerospace industry. The Russian partner will get access to forging equipment that will increase its output.
Alcoa has been struggling for some time now due to oversupply of aluminum in the global market. The last three months have seen a fall in output of aluminum, leading to some price increases. The fall is expected to be short-lived, and the company is trying to cut its reliance on aluminum prices by expanding further into value added products. Alcoa is also trying to cut costs. It is shifting its primary aluminum production to Middle East from Europe and North America. This will enable it to take advantage of lower fuel costs, one of the major costs in the industry. The Ma’aden-Alcoa JV in Saudi Arabia is building two potlines and a huge smelter with a capacity of 740,000 tonnes per year. The project has a mine, a refinery as well as a rolling mill and is expected to cost $10.8 billion. This will be the lowest-cost facility in the world. | 2019-04-20T16:57:51 | https://www.wallstreetpr.com/alcoa-inc-nyseaa-announces-jv-with-the-russians-11117 |

The Dreamiverse is already expanding to other parts of the world. Media Molecule and Sony Interactive have announced that Dreams Early Access will be making its way to Japan on April 22, 2019, less than a week after the it launches in North America.
Known as Dreams Universe in Japan, the Japanese Dreams Early Access will allow certain Japanese players to be among the first to play what will become the final version of Dreams. However, similar to the North American release, it will be sold in limited quantities. It will be available from April 22nd-April 26th, though the PlayStation Blog post states sales of Dreams may end if the limit is reached before the cutoff. However, it is also possible for it to go back on sale at some point in the future.
Dreams Early Access Edition will allow players to create full creations and share them with the world. This version will feature a limited version of Dreams, though it will be available at a reduced price. Previously-announced features, like VR and the Dreams campaign, will not be present at launch, but they will be added at a later date. As this is Early Access, Dreams will be in a very early state. However, anyone who already owns Dreams is able to upgrade to the full version once it’s available. It will cost 3,132 yen at launch.
The worldwide release of Dreams has becoming more of a reality following the conclusion of the Creator Beta earlier in the year. It’s certainly exciting to see this long-gestating project finally coming together.
Dreams Early Access version will release on April 16, 2019 in the United States and Canada. It will release in Japan on April 22, 2019, exclusively for the PlayStation 4. | 2019-04-23T20:42:01 | https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2019/04/10/dreams-early-access-release-japan/ |

Every day is a special day. That is not a random feel-good statement; it reflects the reality that most, if not all, days on the calendar are co-opted in the name of a cause, a movement or an aspiration. Today—April 7—for instance, is World Health Day. It is also No Housework Day, Beaver Day and Tell A Lie Day. Would I lie? When you check it out at the Days Of The Year website you will find that tomorrow is Zoo Day and Draw A Picture Of A Bird Day.

Naturally, given the current cultural atmosphere, the stores will be crowded with rock, hip-hop and country fans, but jazz is not being ignored. In the spirit of Record Store Day, Savoy Records has reissued new vinyl 33&1/3- rpm LPs of three of its classic albums from the late 1940s and early 1950s. Here are the covers of the LPs by Lester Young, the Modern Jazz Quartet (before the MJQ had that name) and Dizzy Gillespie.
This is my favorite record shop story, especially since it’s a rainy day here in Los Angeles.
One very rainy night, I saw two eyes boring in through the chicken wire of my front window. It was a black man, clearly drenched. I invited him in out of the wet. We sat and talked. He was a jazz musician, charming company, and the soul of politeness. He was playing at the Village Vanguard, just a few blocks away. He played uptown too. Then he told me his name: Charlie Parker.
—Jac Holzman from Follow the Music: The Life and High Times of Elektra Records.
That’s the reason for all the limited edition vinyl on Record Store Day. It sells.
My nephew’s future bride to be (in her 30s) visited us with future hubby in tow. I played a bunch of jazz before, during and after dinner via my computer which streamed it to my stereo. She asked me a few questions about Jazz in general (I”m hardly an expert like many of you including our esteemed host!..but I try) I was expecting a lot of questions about servers, ripping CDs to a hard drive. streaming etc. Nary a thought did she have on those subjects. She wanted to see how many jazz LPs I had! The answer was and is: not many! I lost most of my collection over the years because of constant moving, having to sell some prized ones so I could afford my rent, and also from a breakin that cost me the heart of a decent collection..about 250 LPs—sigh.
Anyway, she is a budding jazz fanatic. She is interested only in the LP format. Digital is too “harsh,” lacks the warmth of analog, etc. I was beaming with pride the whole time she was talking. The music claims another set of ears. She has the fervent interest of the neophyte who just discovered this rich music..and she’s finding a lot of LPs for sale in the Toronto area for a few bucks apiece. She has a lot of Blue Note already…Verve, Roulette, OJC, Pablo. She’s going to be easy to buy for at Christmas!
I bought my last LP in 1978—Willie Nelson’s “Stardust.” I just didn’t know it would be my last.
After being nomads for decades, my husband and I bought a house last year in San Antonio, Texas. Custom-built in 1976 by a retired Army officer, it has built-in shelves in the living room. Handsome beefy shelves, deep and tall, but not very practical for books. Duh. I recently realized that the shelves were designed for LPs. Enough for about 2500 LPs. I have perhaps 100. In a box, on the floor in a closet.
My turntable is an ancient Technics SL-1350, still working perfectly, perhaps because CDs relegate it to second place and I haven’t worn it out. It is no longer made. I’m not an audio equipment expert, but a friend who is tells me that a machine called the Audio-Technica LP120-USB is an good modern turntable inspired by the SL-1350. He suggested that you go here and check it out. He said that it should be easily found at most audio dealers.
Doug—Thank you for the recommendations. I’m ready to check them out! And go shopping on Record Store Day!
Long playing vinyl is the best kind of ear wax!!!

Born in Málaga, Spain, in 1881, Pablo Picasso, became one of the greatest and most influential artists of the 20th century and the creator (with Georges Braque) of Cubism. A Spanish expatriate painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist and stage designer, Picasso was considered radical in his work. After a long prolific career, he died on April 8, 1973, in Mougins, France. The enormous body of Picasso's work remains, however, and the legend lives on—a tribute to the vitality of the "disquieting" Spaniard with the "sombrepiercing" eyes who superstitiously believed that work would keep him alive. For nearly 80 of his 91 years, Picasso devoted himself to an artistic production that contributed significantly to—and paralleled the entire development of—modern art in the 20th century. | 2019-04-19T03:18:48 | http://eyecontemporaryart.com/pablo-picasso%2C-spain.html |
Second installment of this summary of mine. Let's see what happened this week.
Also i installed openSUSE in a borrowed/adopted [and probably to be stolen -.-] mini laptop, it's a HP mini. openSUSE runs great, i'm using XFCE desktop and it works like a charm. Post about it coming.
Talking about desktops, yesterday i installed KDE 4.9, i was running 4.8 version but i decided to upgrade to new version. I was afraid to lose my configuration, just after upgrading desktop acted a little weird but i figured out to reboot PC in order to apply new settings. After rebooting things went back to normal and i didn't lose any configuration. I haven't tested it enough so i'm keeping my comments inside... just for now!
No game was in my hands this week, well any controller/keyboard/joystick actually :P Though tonight i'm gaming my head off [i wonder if that phrase it's actually well written lol]. I'll finish Spec Ops The Line and i wanna start gaming [and eventually finish] Need For Speed Pro Street, i like this game and i wanna finish once and for all. Screenshots and even videos on the way.
Today is Fedora 18 release launching event, of course i'm assisting, it's scheduled to start at 14H. This time i'll take some pictures. Also i'm going with Milica [the stolen mini laptop mentioned before], it promises to be good. Sadly i couldn't assist to Codebash Wordpress event yesterday 'cause i had to work, i supposed it'll be next time.
On a more personnel note, i still mourn my rupture with my [now] ex-girlfriend but i'm sure i'll be fine soon. | 2019-04-20T12:19:49 | https://www.mojakomnata.net/2013/01/week-summary-03-2013.html |
Our RFID (radio frequency Identification) ID card printers utilise radio waves to automatically identify people or objects. This is one of the most common methods that is used to store a unique serial number that identifies a person or object on a microchip. Individual manufacturers have defined their own encoding methods such as Mifare, iClass and Legic. Smart cards operate at frequency of 13.56 MHz and have typical operating ranges of 10cm to 1m.

The company will present the devices with Google’s operating system at the Computex Taipei, from 1 to 5 June. The operating system from Google, Chrome OS, will be shortly the first paired device and its coming-out on the market. In June, during the Computex Taipei, which develops between the 1 and 5 of that month, Acer will present their first computers with Chrome OS, as confirmed several sources to VentureBeat. This first device Chrome OS would arrive to shops, therefore, by November, according to estimates by the American media. For more specific information, check out Kaihan Krippendorff . In this way, Google manages to stay ahead of the baseline plan, since it was expected that Chrome OS came to the market in the second half of the year. Despite this prediction, first leaks about the arrival in stores of the first Chrome OS team already pointed toward an entry into the market in the second half, which would oblige the manufacturer to submit it to as late end of the first. ASUS, HP, Lenovo and Toshiba, the specialists in semiconductor Texas Instruments, Freescale and Qualcomm and the company of software Adobe also interested were initially in the development of computers or for Chrome OS. As you remember Wired, the head of the division of products from Acer, Jim Wong, had already declared that his firm was trying to be the first to offer a computer with Google’s operating system.. | 2019-04-19T22:14:45 | http://www.reggov.com/2015/01/ |
What works in careers and enterprise?
Today I’m at the UCAS Teachers and Advisers Conference in Hinckley. I’ve already appeared on a panel and I’ll be giving a workshop this afternoon.

The rates of overweight and obesity amongst adults and children have almost doubled over the last two decades. Indications are that these rates are continuing to rise.
The problem is of significant concern, because overweight and obesity are associated with a wide range of debilitating and life threatening conditions such as cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes, stroke, some cancers, osteoarthritis, kidney disease, gall bladder disease, respiratory and musculoskeletal problems.
In November 2002, Australian Health Ministers agreed that overweight and obesity are significant public health problems that threaten the health gains made by Australians in the last century. They decided the problem required an Australia-wide response, and agreed to establish a National Obesity Taskforce to develop a national action plan for tackling overweight and obesity, and to identify roles and responsibilities for implementing the national plan. | 2019-04-21T18:50:12 | http://www.health.gov.au/internet/publications/publishing.nsf/Content/healthy-weight-2008~healthy-weight-2008-intro |
Today JoyToken released its API protocol to demonstrate how games will run on the JoyToken platform. Developers will be able to use the JoyToken protocol to build games incorporating JoyToken’s smart contracts, and contribute to the foundation of a trustless online gambling ecosystem. Using smart contracts to distribute winnings, determine RNG values, and provide an audit trail of transactions, participants need not trust fellow players, developers, and casino operators. Instead, players can check the game code based on this API to verify that the odds are as advertised. Casino operators need not pay for a third party back-end to execute payouts, as these will be distributed automatically. Developers can continue to earn rewards paid in JoyTokens for the games they create. | 2019-04-20T07:13:58 | https://coinidol.com/joytoken-releases-developer-api-to-showcase-smart-contract-functionality/ |

and we'll start by talking about the most important element in the abstract.
VM Architecture which is the Stack.
and remind you that we are developing 2 tier compilation process.
that you see here in the center of this slide.
Now, let us assume that we had a complete freedom of designing this VM language.
That sort of sits in the middle of this translation process.
How would we go about designing it, which language would we come up with?
Well, we have to strike a balance between two conflicting objectives.
the VM level will be relatively low.
the resulting VM compiler will be a relatively simple and elegant programs.
the final target language, the low level language.
the VM implementation will also be a relatively simple and elegant program.
is something called stack machine.
and a set of operations which we can apply to this architecture.
we're going to describe this architecture and this set of commands.
So let's begin with a stack.
with a some sort of a game in which we have only two allowable manipulations.
pop allows us to remove the top plate from the stack.
accordingly to reflect what we have just done.
the topmost plate in the stack.
sort of pick them up and put another plate in the middle.
you can only access the stack from the top.
but the idea is exactly the same.
about them as integers, but in general these integers can represent anything.
let's think about integers to make life very simple.
the location in which the next value is going to be pushed.
which is also equipped with a regular sort of a memory segment.
you can basically think about it as an array.
this memory as opposed to the stack which only offers, through a stack pointer.
Now, what can we do with this architecture?
we assume that we can label different location in the RAM as we please.
the top of the stack and nothing happens to the memory.
One sub operation will remove the top value from the stack.
the second operation will take this value three and store it in location y.
So whatever used to be location y is going to be overrided.
order to move data from the stack to the memory and vice versa.
Now, in addition to this, we're going to have a whole set of arithmetic commands.
For example, if we say add, the following thing is going to happen.
We're going to pop the two top most values from the stack.
then we're going to push the result onto the stack.
So the result will be this.
seven, have been replaced by the result of the addition, in this case, ten.
which will negate the topmost value.
Now it will not simply negate it will first of all, pop the top value.
It will negate it on the side and then it will push the result back on to the stack.
you have to do three different things.
you have to pop from the stack as many operands there as are necessary.
then you push the result back on to the stack.
automatically, it's part of the obstruction.
All you have to say is add neg, and these things will take place.
we can also apply all sorts of Boolean operations on the stack.
implicitly pop the two top values which happen to be equal.
We're going to ask are they equal, is it true that 5 = 5?
The answer is yes, so we're going to push, true to the stack.
we will pop the two topmost values, the stack will become empty.
then we'll push true back onto the stack.
who gives us these commands?
Now, actually I'm not obliged to answer this question.
just focus on the VMware Infrastructure.
powerful architecture in its own right.
we may well dwell on it without worrying on what exists outside this obstruction.
of ignorance because we can focus on what we're doing now instead of 100% level.
themselves from anything else and just focus on what their currently working on.
students who take this course because they won't understand the big picture.
So it's in the DNA of this calls to ask questions like where does this come from?
of the virtual machine and say a few words about the big picture of stack arithmetic.
Well, they come from the compiler that we haven't seen yet, okay?
translate it into, in this case, push 17, push 19, add, and pop x.
operations will put in x the value of 17+19.
Now, there's an interesting abstraction, implementation interplay going on here.
is an abstraction, it doesn't exist for real.
this obstruction is implemented by something else.
this obstruction and implement it as will do later on in the module.
it's stack machine which is manipulated by four categories of commands.
Branching commands and Function commands.
which the compiler is going to translate into this VM code.
because this is squarely with the VM obstruction.
we assume that we have a memory segment with the x and y variables.
then we push x, so the value of x is being pushed onto the stack.
We subtract these two values, we get the result.
we then push 9, the stack continues to grow.
We then add up the two top most values and we get, I think, 21.
Then we do another addition and we get -4 plus 21, which gives us 16.
which contains the value of this computation.
machine commands executing, and achieving some useful value.
Now, we could have done something very similar with the logical commands.
code pane here is a logical expression or bullion expression that has a tooth value.
the compiler will generate this code, the code that you see here.
we can execute every one of these commands, one after the other.
And what we'll end up getting is this simulation that you see here.
from one transformation to another.
So to recap, what we've done so far, here are our arithmetic logical commands.
that always operate on the top most values in the stack.
less than which also operate on the two topmost values in the stack.
a not that also operate on the two topmost values of the stack.
Now, this doesn't look like much, right?
of operations that uses these commands and executes them on a stack machine.
that you wanted to compute in the high level.
virtual machine that we are building here.
All right, so with that here is once again a description of the overall VM language.
We have said everything that we want to say about arithmetic and logical commands.
And in the next module, we'll talk about memory segment commands. | 2019-04-24T15:27:29 | https://ru.coursera.org/lecture/nand2tetris2/unit-1-2-vm-abstraction-the-stack-8nY13 |

“Yes, thanks. It’s always interesting to learn of other people’s beliefs,” I said, accepting a copy of the Book of Mormon.
“You can visit, but it won’t get you anyplace. I was brought up Christian, but I dropped out years ago.” The term dropped out just about described my life at that time. A longtime bachelor, I had withdrawn from society in recent years and had become a studious recluse with shoulder-length hair, and I lived on coffee and cigarettes.
A week later the missionaries stopped by again. We had a pleasant discussion, and they showed interest in my library of books on family history. They made an appointment to return once again—on the anniversary of my late father’s birthday. My father had passed away 20 years earlier, but shortly after his passing I had had an experience that confirmed to me that there was an afterlife. I wanted to hear what they had to say about such matters.
On the night of their appointment, memories of this experience came back to me as the missionaries explained about the visit of the angel Moroni to Joseph Smith, and I readily accepted all they taught me that day. Yet I balked at the thought of baptism; I could see no reason to alter my way of life.
The following day at work, I considered the things I was learning, but I did not feel happy about them. There seemed little enough time now in my life to do all I wanted. If I became involved in Church activities, I’d have even less time to pursue my interests. I decided to ask the elders not to call again.
When they came to my door a few days later, I announced to them I had decided not to join their church. The elders looked crestfallen.
“Now that we are here, do you mind if we go ahead with the lesson?” asked Elder Judd.
Surprised, I consented. As I listened, I realized I was somewhat intrigued by all they had to say. Yet nothing was further from my mind than receiving instruction in the Latter-day Saint—or any other—faith. I began giving offhand and occasionally hostile answers. The atmosphere was not cordial. Then I asked myself why I continued to fight the missionaries. Their message made sense; it had a ring of truth. And the bearers of the message were two young men of seemingly exceptional character. Their perseverance and patience amazed me. I was impressed in spite of myself.
As they left, I surprised myself by saying I would attend a meeting the next evening. At the meeting I came face to face with other members of the Church. They turned out to be the friendliest and happiest group I had ever encountered. Within minutes I had received an invitation to lunch the following Sunday. Then, as I watched a videocassette entitled The First Vision and participated in the discussion after, I found some matters clarified.
The next day I felt as though I was becoming a different person. I was given strength to set aside my cigarettes, and I was baptized the following Sunday.
I am grateful for the changes that came into my life and the new opportunities that Church membership brought me. Because missionaries lived in my building only two months, I believe the Lord helped bring them to my door. I have often reflected on the love Father in Heaven has for His children that He would be mindful even of me—a person who had shut out the world—and guide me to the truth.

Hornbach, the German home improvement retailer known for its quirky advertising, is back with a new idea from its Werkstuck campaign, in which it teams up with designers to create items that customers can construct for themselves using its range of materials.(The first item, a lounge chair, was announced last year).
Customers can construct the design themselves using an assembly book which contains illustrated, step-by-step instructions on how to build the table, as well as lists of materials and tools. There's also a website to accompany the campaign and a film, seen here, about Shimada and his design process. | 2019-04-25T04:20:47 | https://adage.com/creativity/work/hornbach-utsuri-table/1027296 |

WASHINGTON (CNS) — A U.S. District Court judge Dec. 20 changed a preliminary injunction to a permanent one barring enforcement of the federal health care law’s contraceptive mandate against the Pittsburgh and Erie dioceses.
Judge Arthur J. Schwab of the U.S. District Court for Western Pennsylvania issued the ruling after attorneys representing the federal government said they had no new evidence to offer in support of the mandate. The government was expected to appeal his decision to the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
Two months earlier, in granting the preliminary injunction, Schwab said a religious employer’s right to adhere to moral objections to the contraceptive mandate outweighs a government decision to widen access to contraceptives.
But the same day Schwab issued his permanent injunction, rulings handed down in lawsuits filed by other Catholic entities brought mixed results for the plaintiffs.
Suits brought by the Washington Archdiocese, Priest for Life and the University of Notre Dame were dismissed in their respective jurisdictions; both the Catholic organization Legatus and a group of ministries associated with the Southern Baptists were granted preliminary injunctions in their respective courts.
“The District Court’s ruling is perplexing. It creates an unequal patchwork of justice in our country, where fundamental liberties seem to depend on where one lives,” said the Washington Archdiocese.
Within an hour of the judge’s decision in its case, the Washington Archdiocese filed an emergency request with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit for an “injunction to maintain the status quo” while its appeal to the same court can be heard and decided.
The same District Court dismissed the lawsuit filed by Priests for Life, headed by Father Frank Pavone. The organization also planned to file an appeal.
Employers must comply with the mandate starting Jan. 1 or face thousands of dollars of daily fines.
On Dec. 20 that court denied Notre Dame a preliminary injunction and criticized the university for waiting too long to refile.
Notre Dame had originally filed suit last year, but the District Court ruled it premature because the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services had yet not finalized the rules for implementing the contraceptive mandate, which is part of the Affordable Care Act. The university engaged in talks with the Obama administration over the past year to find an acceptable resolution, but the effort failed.
When the final rules were issued in June, many Catholic employers, like Notre Dame, said they still did not address their moral objections to the mandated coverage.
Elsewhere Dec. 20, Judge Robert Cleland of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan/Southern Division granted a preliminary injunction to Legatus, an organization for Catholic business leaders.
“The harm in delaying the implementation of a regulation that may later be deemed constitutional must yield to the risk presented here of substantially infringing the sincere exercise of religious beliefs” he said.
In October 2012 Cleland denied Legatus an injunction, saying the organization fell under the temporary “safe harbor” provision the Obama administration had in place to protect employers from immediate government action against them if they failed to comply with the mandate. He, too, noted the final rules were still to come, but told Legatus it could approach the court again if the government “acts in a way inimical” to the rights it sought to protect.
In a class-action lawsuit filed by close to 200 ministries associated with the Southern Baptists, Judge Timothy DeGiusti of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma issued a preliminary injunction against enforcement of the mandate.
The ministries involved in the suit include a Georgia Baptist college and an organization called Reaching Souls International, which trains pastors and cares for orphans in Africa and a couple of other countries.
Employees are covered through the health benefits arms of the Southern Baptist Convention called GuideStone Financial Resources.
“The District Court’s ruling is perplexing. It creates an unequal patchwork of justice in our country, where fundamental liberties seem to depend on where one lives,” the statement said.
The statement referred to the decision in favor of the Pittsburgh and Erie dioceses as well as another federal judge’s Dec. 13 decision to grant Catholic organizations in the New York Archdiocese and the neighboring Diocese of Rockville Centre, N.Y., a permanent injunction on having to comply with the federal contraceptive mandate in the health care law.
It noted the lower court’s decision is also contrary to a recent D.C. circuit court’s that blocked enforcement of the mandate against for-profit organizations with religious objections to it.
The Washington Archdiocese and its related affiliates “are extremely disappointed and troubled by the court’s failure to uphold the church’s freedom to maintain a health care plan consistent with its religious beliefs,” it said.
Currently, there are more than 70 lawsuits against the mandate filed by Catholic and other religious entities and some for-profit companies working their way through the courts.
The HHS mandate requires nearly all religious and other employers to provide free preventative health care coverage specifically for women.
That coverage includes services such as mammograms, prenatal care and cervical cancer screenings, but it also mandates free contraceptives, sterilizations and abortion-inducing drugs — which are contrary to Catholic teaching. It includes a narrow exemption for some religious employers that fit certain criteria.
For religious employers who are not exempt, there is an accommodation for them to use a third party to pay for coverage they find objectionable, but Catholic entities that have brought the lawsuits say the accommodation still does not solve their problem over being involved in providing coverage they reject for moral reasons.
The U.S. Supreme Court agreed Nov. 26 to take up two cases that challenge the contraceptive mandate of the law for secular, for-profit businesses whose owners object to all or part of the mandate on moral grounds. | 2019-04-24T08:12:24 | http://catholicphilly.com/2013/12/news/national-news/rulings-in-hhs-lawsuits-deliver-mixed-results-for-catholic-employers/ |
Paris Jackson NOT "Doing Drugs" Amid "Family Crisis"
Paris Jackson is not “doing drugs” amid a supposed family crisis, contrary to an alarming report from the National Enquirer. A rep for the rising star maintains the claim is 100 percent untrue.
But would someone who is genuinely “concerned” about Jackson and truly “afraid” for her well-being really be talking about it with the notorious National Enquirer? Of course not. And the publication has repeatedly been caught making up stories about 19-year-old this year. In March, for example, the tabloid ran fake news about Jackson joining “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.” That was followed in April by nonsense about the model supposedly using the dating app Raya to find lesbian one-night-stands. | 2019-04-19T14:23:49 | https://www.gossipcop.com/paris-jackson-not-doing-drugs-family-crisis-substance-abuse/ |
