The new service is called UPS Exchange Collect and is a technology-based electronic payment possibility that synchronizes movement of goods, information, and funds between exporters and importers.\nThe exporter (seller) and importer (buyer) agree to the purchase and sale terms and specify UPS Exchange Collect for financial settlement.\nThe exporter ships the goods via UPS. UPS notifies the importer via e-mail that the goods are in transit and that payment must be received before the goods will be delivered.\nThe importer electronically transfers payment for the goods to UPS.\nAfter UPS receives payment, it delivers the shipment to the importer.\nUpon verification of delivery, UPS electronically remits the payment for the goods to the exporter's designated bank account and notifies the exporter via e-mail of payment remittance.\nDerek Woodward, vice president, international marketing for UPS, says that, "on average, sellers receive payments via UPS Exchange Collect in 10 days or less, a major improvement considering that payment in some international trade transactions can extend up to 90 days on traditional credit terms."\nTo learn more about UPS Exchange Collect, talk to your UPS account representative or call 800/782-7892.

Jose Lepervanche knew he was at risk of a cardiac event. He even tried to prevent it.\nHe just wasn’t able to keep trying.\nNot even after the first time his heart faltered.\nJose’s heart journey began in the early 1990s, while living in his native Venezuela. After experiencing some chest pain, a checkup showed his cholesterol was rising and he needed to take better care of his health.\nJose’s job transferred him and his family to Miami in 1994 and his schedule got even busier. As he traveled internationally, exercise and healthy eating again slid down his priority list.\nIn 2001, a doctor recommended he start taking statins, but Jose was reluctant because of potential side effects on his liver. He also vowed to stick with a better diet and more exercise. He took the medication, but not regularly.\nNext came an attempt to slow his lifestyle and focus more on his health, first with a job as a professor of management and information systems at American Intercontinental University in Weston, Florida, then other online universities.\nStill, the damage was done.\nWhile backpacking with his son in Ocala State Forest, Jose felt fatigued, dizzy and oddly cold.\n“My son joked that those were symptoms of a heart attack,” Jose said.\nA follow-up visit with the doctor showed indeed Jose had experienced a minor heart attack. That’s also when he learned his cholesterol remained high, and he had some minor blockages that may one day require stents (tiny mesh-like tubes that prop open arteries).\nThis time, when the doctor prescribed medication, he took it as directed.\nHe also took healthy eating more seriously, dropping from 230 pounds to 205.\nTwo years later, Jose was in the woods again, this time at the Woodruff Scout Reservation near Blairsville, Georgia.\nA leader in the Boy Scouts for more than 25 years, Jose was the Scoutmaster on this trip for a group of 25 scouts and eight adults.\nJose collapsed while talking to some scouts. He’d gone into sudden cardiac arrest.\nHis son Alejandro, who was 15 at the time, called for help, and five other scout leaders (Kevin Newman, Coleen Harris, Phyllis Saxon, Mark Tolleson and Brian Buchanan) applied CPR while waiting for the ambulance, stopping only to apply five shocks by the automated external defibrillator (AED) brought by camp Emergency Medical Technician Brian Hendrick. The senior youth leader, Scott Fleischmann, and his youth leadership scouts directed the troop members to spread out in the road with flashlights to guide the ambulance, which arrived 45 minutes later.\nStill unconscious, Jose was taken to the local hospital, then transferred to the Ronnie Green Heart Center at the Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville, Georgia, with his wife, Flor; Alejandro and another son, 25-year-old Daniel, at his side.\nDoctors used therapeutic hypothermia to protect Jose’s organs and limit the risks of brain damage. He regained consciousness two days later, then underwent a catheter procedure and quadruple bypass. A few days later, doctors installed an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), which uses electrical pulses or shocks to help control life-threatening arrhythmias, especially those that can cause sudden cardiac arrest.\nThree months later, Jose was back camping with his Boy Scout troop. A year later, he was cleared to return to more rigorous activities, including caving, repelling and white water rafting.\n“I just need that experience of camping to re-energize,” he said.\nThe cardiac arrest occurred July 1, 2007 – so he’s celebrating his 7-year anniversary of a second chance at life.\nJose, who just turned 60, is making the most of it by keeping himself fit through walking and his Boy Scout activities. He makes sure to wear a heart rate monitor when doing more strenuous activities such as his regular Zumba class.\nHis ICD has shocked him four times, once during a 15K race. Jose limits himself to 5K races now and is careful to keep his heart rate in a safe zone.\nHe rarely eats red meat, focusing on healthy portions of fish, lean poultry and vegetables. He takes a daily aspirin, plus beta blockers and cholesterol medication.\nFollowing his sudden cardiac arrest, Jose has been involved in raising awareness about CPR and heart health through the American Heart Association. He participates in the annual Heart Walk and speaks frequently on heart-related issues. A video about his experience is used in local Boy Scout CPR and AED training.\n“I think everyone should know how to CPR, because you never know when something like this is going to happen,” he said.\nHe treasures his second chance at life. Cardiac arrest is often fatal, with only 10 percent of patients surviving when it occurs outside the hospital.\nHe founded an advocacy and support group called 4 Healthy Hearts in 2010 to promote life balance as a way to keep the heart healthy and works to raise awareness about the importance of CPR/AED training. He has worked with the American Heart Association in its efforts to make CPR training part of high school graduation requirements.\nDo you know a “Story from the Heart” we should tell?\nSend an email to [email protected] that’s as brief or as detailed as you’d like.\nI agree, eating healthier and exercising is good for you – thanks AHA for everything you do.

Dr. Mike shares traumatic stories about the way the idea of Hell has scared him and scarred him, and subjected him to bad church theater, as we begin looking at different Christian views on Hell: Is it a bad place for bad people? Is it the sad fate of unbelievers? It it the threat of fading away when you die? Why are some people so obsessed with it?

Another sugar source this time an unprocessed sugar from Mexico. Traditionally used for baking and desert recipes. In the culture and fermentation world, it is used for making the South American water kefir strain, called Tibicos or Tibi. It has a very rich taste which will transfer to the finished beverage.\nDefinition: Piloncillo tibicos sugar made from pure, unrefined sugar that is pressed into a cone shape. It tastes very similar to brown sugar with a molasses flavor (even though it does not contain molasses) and you can use it for anything that calls for brown sugar. Its name means "little pylon" because of its shape. The smaller cones are usually around 1 ounce and the larger ones around 8 ounces. They come in light, "blanco" and dark "oscura."\nThis sugar replaces the need for dark brown sugar and molasses in culture food recipes. Great sugar source for tibicos grains or water kefir starter. Will make a stronger tasting beverage over white or cane sugar.\nNote: Product brand may be different than image. Because of it nature, organic Piloncillo is hard to find.

I really wanted to give out those mini Heath bars but the only packages I found in the Halloween bins in the front of Shaw�s were the variety packs that also contained Whoppers, and Whoppers are gross.\nSo I pick my go-to trick or treat candy: Reese�s Peanut Butter Cups. Sorry, peanut-free trick-or-treaters, you�ll have to skip my house again this year.\nI may have gone home and changed costumes when I reached the advanced age of 12 and 13 and went around the neighborhood twice. Because getting twice as much candy was totally worth compromising my moral integrity for one night a year. Plus I knew my time was running out. Dressing up like a hooligan and going begging at the neighbor�s house for candy was only cool for so long. The door was closing fast on the trick-or-treat opportunities in my future.\nHow I loved those days when my sisters and I arrived home after school and raced to our booty where, being the latchkey children we were, we could enjoy the luxury of eating as much of it as we wanted without parental intervention. We operated a Halloween candy stock exchange, trading treats. Reese�s Peanut Butter Cups had high market value. Tootsie Rolls were junk bonds. As the days passed and the overall supply of candy dwindled, Tootsie Rolls gained value when the Reese�s Peanut Butter Cups were all eaten.\nNegotiating now takes place inside my own adult head as I try to estimate the number of times the doorbell will ring and the sufficient number of treats to have on hand so I end the night with no net gain. I want all the candy gone. Magically delicious milk chocolate and peanut butter combo, I see you coaxing me over to your van to ask me if I�d like a ride. Not going there. Nope.\nSo I try to buy only what I think I will give out. My apologies to that last kid who ended up with a package of crackers last year. Oops, I slightly underestimated.

TD finishing have recently finished the installation of several new powder coating oven facilities for one of our regular customers. The customer is a global company with nine European facilities, three in the USA and one in Asia. Specialising in the supply of power distribution solutions and protection equipment. Due to growth the client has just acquired and fitted out two brand-new manufacturing facilities each with their own powder coating. One near Preston, U.K. and the other in Dundalk, Ireland.\nHaving already bought three powder coating systems from TD Finishing the customer trusted they were the right plant supplier for the new facilities. The two new facilities each have an online powder coating oven for the processing of sheet metal at a track speed of up to 1,000 mm/min. Manual powder booths were also installed on each of these lines.\nFor larger items and infrequent colours, the customer was also supplied with an offline gas-fired box powder coating oven (capacity of 4,200 mm Long x 3,200 mm wide x 3,200 mm high). This alongside a manual, open-fronted, cartridge-filter powder coating booth allows for greater flexibility and production output from the new facility. To ensure that expected manufacturing capacity is met, the facility was also increased by relocating the existing TD finishing box oven and manual booth from their facility in Kendal.\nThe customer has experienced a steady continual growth and now supply a wide range of global industries including data centres, pharmaceutical, energy, power generation and nuclear. They also support hotels, financial institutions, shopping centres offices, media centres.\nDue to this high demand on their products, quality and uptime is of paramount importance. TD have continued to support their growth, and now the customer has installed three TD finishing online powder coating systems with manual booths, as well as three off-line manual booths and three TD Finishing box ovens.\nThe powder coating of the clients manufactured Busbars required an altogether different approach. For this process TD finishing supplied an automated, indexing, Fusion-bonded-epoxy (FBE) system. This requires each flightbar once loaded with components to go through a process of pre-heating. This was carried out in the first of two high level gas-fired TD finishing ovens. Once at temperature the flight bar is transferred at a speed of 8,000 mm/min to the station above the FBE fluidized bed. Here the components are dipped in to the specially formulated powder, via a highly accurate, HMI-controlled linear drive unit, with transfer speeds ranging from 2-40 m/min. Following dipping the flight bar is then transferred to the second oven for the final curing process to occur. This system was capable of handling items up to 800 mm high x 800 mm wide x 3,100 mm long and a maximum load of 300 kg.\nTD finishing supply a wide range of industries with paint and powder coating plant, each one is a bespoke and customized solutions for each client’s specific needs. This means TD can supply the wide range of finishing industry requirements, from the open front powder coating booth and box oven. To the fully automated power and free FBE coating systems. TD also supply fully automated wet paint facilities, including power and free conveyors, IPC HMI control systems and programable robot paint facilities.\nFor more information or to speak to a member of our team regarding anything on the website, you can call on +44 (0) 121 520 8884 or email [email protected].

The Benchmark Company's Gary Mobley this morning raised his rating on shares of chip maker MIPS Technologies (MIPS) from Hold to Buy, with a $10 price target, writing that his estimate for the present value of the royalties from the company's 580 patents is $183 million, or $3.40 per share, given that "technology patents have become a valuable business currency."\nMIPS's patents are "fundamental to the way 32-bit and 64-bit RISC processors are configured," writes Mobley, and the U.S. patent system has aided the proliferation of "patent trolls" such as Acacia Research (ACTG) and Tessera Technologies (TSRA).\nMobley writes that it's difficult to know the exact value of each patent without doing extensive due diligence. However, "Admittedly an over simplification, the current rate per technology patent has ranged between $500,000 and $1.5 million. The midpoint of this range would put the value of MIPS' patent portfolio at $435 million, or ~$8.00/MIPS share."\nWith 41 billion chips expected to be shipping by 2016, " it is possible a court could find that some portion of MIPS' competition is violating MIPS' patents relating to SIMD (single instruction, multiple data), security and/or multithreading, to name just a few of the technologies supported by MIPS' patents."\nMoreover, every $100 million more that MIPS can get for its patent adds another $1.90 to a "base case" for MIPS's patents of $4.84 per share, Mobley argues.\nMIPS shares today are up 47 cents, or 7%, at $7.07.\nThe Benchmark Company's Gary Mobley this morning raised his rating on shares of chip maker MIPS Technologies (MIPS) from Hold to Buy, with a $10 price target, writing that his estimate for the present value of the royalties from the company's 580 patents is $183 million, or $3.

2015 is THE year for every human on planet Earth to add their voice to the demand for action to stop climate chaos.\nTo make sure the tide turns we need you to take to the streets and add your voice to build a magnificent crescendo of public outcry!\nCreating the change we need will take a lot of planning, so we've got a lot planned—make sure you're planning ahead too!\nMarch 14th: Harper's dangerous Bill C-51 would give CSIS and the RCMP unprecedented powers, creating a secret police force that will be used to push Harper's oily agenda. It's come to light that the RCMP are climate deniers; by contrast, the US security establishment views climate change as real and a dangerous threat to national security. Under this bill anyone who speaks out about climate change could become a target—the RCMP actually considers "eco-terrorism" a more serious threat than ISIL. Thousands of us took to the streets in dozens of rallies across the country. Check out the coverage.\nApril 11th: The First Ministers of every province and territory will be meeting in Québec City. They'll be discussing climate change and tar sands pipelines, and we're hoping to see tens of thousands of people there to make it crystal clear: we want concerted action! The experience in Quebec is not one you want to miss—get on the bus! (get your bus ticket and accommodation). Can't make it to Quebec? In Toronto we'll be going to the doors of MPs with Block Parties to Block Energy.\nJuly 3rd-6th: Just before the Pan-Am Games, Ontario will be hosting the Pan-American Climate Summit. We're excited that this is happening, and yet we know that in order to see the ambitious action that is needed we're going to have to press hard. So we'll be running a weekend of climate action, culminating in some BIG events. You don't wanna miss this one!\nEarly December: The United Nations climate summit (aka COP21) will be in Paris this year. This will be the make or break conference for a universal agreement on real action to deal with climate change. Their website says "We're counting on you!" Join people in communities around the world to say loud and clear that we're ready for monumental change.

Last week, the Angeles Crest Highway reopened. This is great news for motorcyclists, and probably bad news for California motorcycle safety statistics. Why? Because every weekend when the weather is nice, bikes go down on the Angeles Crest Highway. Just ask the bartenders at Newcomb’s Ranch, the place for food or a drink within forty miles of it’s location atop the Angeles National Forest. According to them, “several serious accidents occur there every Saturday and Sunday” during summer months.\nThe CHP’s accident data supports this. CHP motorcycle accident statistics show that 164 motorcycle accidents occurred on the Angeles Crest Highway in 2007 and 2008. Eight of these accidents were fatal. Excessive speed was the primary factor in almost all (98%) of them.\nRecently, the California Office of Traffic Safety was given “Motorcycle Safety Coalition Grants” by California Office of Traffic Safety from the NHTSA (National Highway Safety Administration). Some of this money will go toward a concerted effort to enforce speed limits on the Angeles Crest Highway. In other words, watch out this summer if you are riding your motorcycle up the mountain on old Route 2. From now through September 30th, the cops will be out en masse. And they are there to write tickets.\nWe hope that this does reduce the number of motorcycle accidents in Los Angeles. But we also hope that if you’re riding up that way on a sunny Sunday morning this summer, you watch your speed, and don’t get a ticket. It’s the second fastest way to ruin a beautiful ride.

Medicare tries its best to give seniors the medical coverage they need in order to enjoy their retirement years in the best possible health. However, there are certain gaps in Medicare Parts A and B which, if you neglect to cover them, can end up costing you thousands. Thankfully, this is the reason that Medicare supplement insurance exists – to protect you from these coverage gaps. Medicare Advantage is one such form of supplement insurance. We’ll discuss the pros and cons of Medicare Advantage in this article.\nSome people refer to Medicare Advantage as a “Medicare replacement” policy. This is not far from the truth. These policies are sold by private health insurance companies which provide coverage that is equal to or better than Original Medicare. This minimum level of coverage is required by federal law. Once you purchase an Advantage plan, the government will no longer pay out claims on your Medicare-related procedures. That responsibility of your new health insurance company.\nLiving in South Dakota, as opposed to somewhere like Florida or New York, will have you paying dramatically different rates. There are many other circumstances, such as age, weight, and current health status, which will influence your specific monthly premium.\nThe popularity of Advantage plans is significantly influenced by price. As you can see, HMOs are much more popular than the others. It should come as no surprise that they are also the most affordable plans. PPOs and PFFS plans are more costly, hence less popular. The differences in price are directly related to each plan’s provider network.\nYour provider network determines where, when, and how you can get the medical care you need. Smaller, less expensive networks (like HMOs) will limit where you can get care, and there are expensive penalties for seeking care outside of the network. Larger networks, like PPOs or PFFS plans, are more expensive but give you more options as far as doctors and hospitals go.\nDespite the hassle of provider networks, Medicare Advantage plans have a strength when it comes to ancillary coverage options. You have the option to add dental, vision, and/or prescription drug coverage (under an MAPD plan) to your policy. With most other supplements, you would be purchasing those coverages either separately, or not at all.\nAre you within your IEP, or is your IEP approaching soon? If so, then you’re in luck. Enrolling in Medicare during your IEP virtually guarantees you coverage with little hassle. And when you enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan during the same time frame, it will be much easier to get approved. You are more likely to run into trouble if you enroll after your IEP has expired, if you are outside of your Special Enrollment Period, or if you have a serious medical condition such as ESRD. However, your state department of insurance or your local insurance agent may be able to help you get covered. For more information, you can also take a look at our Medicare Advantage Enrollment Options page.

God, clarify my mind as I read Your Word and purify my heart that I may not share the sin of the world opposed to You.\nReflect: WHAT IS THE END FOR THOSE WHO TRUST IN WHAT’S FALSE?\nToday’s reading is about as bad as it gets: a whore dressed in purple sitting on a scarlet beast drunk with the blood of the saints. The many waters on which she sits represent the inhabited world (15). Through every false form of worship and honor given to all that is false, she has enticed the whole world to unfaithfulness to God and adultery against him. She rides on the beast through history, but which has seven “heads” or specific expressions—Egypt in Moses’ time, Babylon in Daniel’s time, Rome, which would be spoken of at the time of John’s writing as the one who is ruling (10) and in the last days, the Anti-Christ, the one who has still to come (10).It is easy to be overwhelmed. But at such times we need to follow John into the wilderness (3) where, with clarified minds and attuned spirits, we can receive the good news. And it’s worth waiting for: “the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings” (14). Christ will win because he has already won at the cross. And we, his called, chosen, faithful followers, will be caught up in his victory.\nKeep reading verse 14 and resolve to be faithful!\nFather, help us to see the nearness of Your coming and live accordingly.

Alzheimer’s may in some cases be as manageable as HIV/Aids by 2025, the head of Britain’s new Dementia Research Institute (DRI) predicts.\nSpeaking after the announcement of his appointment as director of the £250 million UK DRI, the world-renowned Belgian neuroscientist told the Press Association: “We won’t be celebrating in 2025 that dementia is cured, but I hope that by then there will be groups of patients who can be treated in much the same way HIV-Aids is treated today.\nProf De Strooper, who is putting together a multi-disciplinary team of doctors, biologists, engineers and data specialists working from centres across the UK, said he hoped to see “real surprises”.\nHe added: “I’m a scientist so I don’t look into crystal balls but I would put a lot of money on saying that the next generation will have a completely different view of dementia disorders.\n“In just the same way Aids in the 1970s and 80s was seen as a terrible doom or punishment of the gods, but is now manageable and treatable. Cancer has gone through a similar process – the way we look at cancer today is quite different from what it was a generation ago.\nIn a key shift to previous approaches he intends to broaden research beyond the “amyloid hypothesis” on which so much work up until now has focused.\nThe hypothesis places clumps of sticky protein fragments in the brain known as beta-amyloid at the heart of Alzheimer’s.\nBeta-amyloid “plaques” are recognised as a key hallmark of the disease, but precisely what their role is remains unclear.\nProf De Strooper said: “The amyloid hypothesis is an old hypothesis from 25 years ago. Since then we have acquired so much information that can’t fit into the simple amyloid hypothesis.\n“It would be an over-simplification to reduce Alzheimer’s to amyloid. The main problem is not that the hypothesis is untrue, but it is very old-fashioned, simplistic and linear.\n“Dementia is likely to be much more complicated, in a similar way to cancer, which we now know is caused and driven by a multitude of factors. I hope progress in tackling dementia will go faster than it did with cancer.\n“At the Institute we will approach dementia as a complicated, multi-factorial disease. Inflammation, biochemistry, cellular changes – all these things are likely to have an influence.\nHowever, he was in no way dismissive of the new wave of amyloid-targeting drugs now undergoing clinical trials.\nSo far none of these drugs have proved their ability to alter progress of the disease in large-scale patient studies.\nLast month, scientists suffered a serious setback with poor results from solanezumab, an antibody drug designed to halt the build-up of beta-amyloid, in a Phase III trial.\nProf De Strooper said: “People see the failure of these drugs, but I think they have a very good rationale. In a couple of years it’s possible that we’ll be able to define what categories of patients these therapies will work for.\nThe accent on bringing together talent from different sides of science would see mixtures of experts working together in the same team, he said.\nProf De Strooper added: “My priority in the first year will be to improve our mechanistic understanding of the disease. We’ll be taking a multi-disciplinary approach to the problem.\nHe stressed that the Institute would not just be looking at Alzheimer’s but would investigate the whole range of neurodegenerative diseases, including disorders such as Parkinson’s and Huntington’s.

The recession has continued to present both opportunities and problems for the Bryan County Board of Education.\nThe board, hoping that business-hungry builders will offer bargain pricing, plans to receive bids for construction of the new Richmond Hill middle school Dec. 8.\nBut the board, looking for ways to save money and spend more efficiently, also decided to slow progress on renovation of the old Black Creek elementary school.\nArchitect Craig Buckley, addressing the Bryan Board of Education during its regular monthly meeting Oct. 22, said schools around Georgia were being built for about $135 per square foot one year ago.\nThree weeks ago, that price had dropped to $93 per square foot, and a top-of-the-line high school in Stephens County was priced at $102 per square foot, Buckley said.\n"I haven't seen pricing like this for five or six years," said Buckley, whose firm, Buckley and Associates of Swainsboro, specializes in school construction. "There is no better time to bid work."\nBuckley estimated that the new Richmond Hill middle school should cost less than $100 per square foot.\nSaid Bryan BOE Chairman Eddie Warren, "It's especially good news on the pricing."\nGround was broken for the 200,000-square-foot school July 22 at a site off Belfast Keller Road, and ground preparation is nearing completion, Buckley said.\nEleven bidders have been pre-qualified, and Buckley said he expects at least eight bids to build the new school. Construction should begin in early 2010, and school officials hope to have the building completed in 2011. The school would house some 1,600 students.\nBryan officials are hoping to build the school for some $30 million, two-thirds of which was generated last year in a bond offering. But officials worry that infrastructure and athletic fields could push the cost up.\nLand for the school was donated by Rayonier and its land development subsidiary, TerraPointe.\nTerraPointe has laid out plans for a 4,500-acre development off Belfast Siding Road in south Bryan County. Rayonier donated the 98-acre school site, with room for two schools, to the Bryan County Board of Education in 2007. Officials have speculated that a second south Bryan County high school might be built on the remaining land.\nRoofs have been completed on the old Black Creek elementary school. The buildings can be dried-in and secured with the addition of two doors and a window, interim Supt. John Oliver told the BOE Oct. 22.\nThe board, holding its October meeting at Bryan County High School, decided by consensus to pause construction and re-examine its schedule for the Black Creek project. "I don't see putting any more money into Black Creek right now," board member Judy Crosby said.\nIn a subsequent interview, Oliver explained that the old Black Creek elementary school had been closed in 1981 with the opening of Lanier Primary School. Black Creek had been used for storage, and the building had fallen into disrepair.\nAbout four years ago, Oliver recalled, the board decided to renovate the building for use as a central school office. Two Georgia Department of Corrections prison crews helped with the renovation, and made good progress. But work has slowed as the budget has tightened. Oliver said some $500,000 has been budgeted for fiscal year 2010-2011.\n"I heard the board saying, 'Let's not race into this,'" Oliver said later. "It will eventually be a very nice building."\nBoard member Dennis Seger has championed the Black Creek renovation at recent board meetings, and urged the board not to let the project lapse. "We've spent $1.2 million. Are we just going to let that go to waste?" Seger asked the board during the Oct. 22 meeting.\nChairman Eddie Warren said the building should be dried-in and secured, and then the board should reconsider if, and how much, money should be spent.\nBoard member Charlie Johnson reminded the board of the bargain pricing available because of the economic downturn.

The city of Gao was left badly damaged during the conflict between Malian forces and the Tuareg-led Islamist group last year.\nChristians in a city in northern Mali, already forced to hold services in a school classroom because their church was looted and not ready to host meetings, had a bomb scare on Sunday (Jan. 12).\nMilitary personnel patrolling the area in Gao on Sunday morning discovered explosives near the school. French army personnel were able to safely defuse the devices and authorities are now investigating, but the incident left church members shocked.\nThe pastor of the church, whose identity is being withheld to protect his security, told World Watch Monitor there is “insecurity in all aspects of life” at the moment, but that his congregation was refusing to panic.\nIt is just over a year now since French troops ousted the Tuareg-led Islamist group, which had taken over northern Mali and declared independence, aiming to impose Islamic law on cities such as Gao.\nOn January 11 last year, French troops moved to regain control of the region after the Islamist militants had attempted to progress further south.\nFor nearly a year, the armed Islamist groups had ruled the region, banning the practice of other religions and desecrating and looting churches and other places of worship.\nThousands, including many Christians, fled the occupation and found refuge in the south of the country or in neighbouring countries such as Niger and Burkina Faso.\nAfter the French helped the Malian forces to regain control of the region, the re-establishment of security took time and necessitated mass reconstruction, as many displaced people returned home.\nA number of public buildings were destroyed during the conflict, including schools, health clinics, ancient monuments, hotels and restaurants.\nThe pastor of the church in Gao told World Watch Monitor that around 50 members of his congregation have returned home in recent months.\nMali fell from 7th to 33rd on the 2014 World Watch List, which ranks the 50 countries where practising Christianity is most fraught.\nFollowing the French military intervention last year, “the threat of an Islamist takeover has been averted, at least temporarily”, reported this year’s World Watch List, which was compiled by Christian charity Open Doors International.\nHowever, the list reports that the presence and infrastructure of Christianity in the north was largely destroyed, and that rebuilding a Christian presence will be difficult because many Christians who fled the north are afraid to return.\n“Even though most Malian Christians (constituting less than 5% of the population) live in the south of the country, they feel threatened by Islamists in the north and fear of a new uprising remains,” reports the list.

Open your eyes with our 20 signals!\nDuring the first months of living together, it is very easy to be permissive because your boy seems perfect but ... everything has changed after a while? It can be a real shock to see how your boy becomes a little boy before your eyes! If you still do not have very clear if your boyfriend is an immature, we give you 20 reasons to find out.\n1. Your hygiene is very questionable. If you do not wash, it means that you do not care about it or what you think about it. A smelly boy is not a plate of good taste, nor to sleep next to him and least of all to kiss him.\n2. You no longer pay anything We are not saying that you have to pay for everything, but you should not assume that you will always pay for dinner, drinks, movies and trips.\n3. It's no longer interesting what you say It always tells you: "What?" Repeat it! " That means she is not paying attention to you and does not behave like a good boyfriend.\n4. Still update your eDarling and your MeeticNo you create the excuse of "I'm just looking for new friends!". He is looking for something more. Tell him that if he does not leave those applications, you will leave him to him.\n5. Does not pay attention to you? You never have money because you spend it on tobacco? Do you have parties at your house every weekend and just invite your friends? If your (bad) habits are more important to you, you are clearly dating an immature.\n6. Refuses to do new things with you. Keeping the freshness and emotion in a relationship will help you thrive as a couple. Playing parchis is entertaining, but not like doing it every Friday night.\n7. "Like" too many pictures of other girls on Instagram This is a no-brainer. It's normal for other girls to find you attractive, but that does not mean you have to act like a desperate one. It's not good for your reputation or for yours!\n8. No longer ask you how your day has gone. Your boyfriend is the person you want to tell that gossip about your work partner or the good news when a project has gone well, but if he comes home and prefers to watch TV to listen to you ... rethink your relationship.\n9. Do not remember the name of your friends or what they do Keep your ears and eyes open when your boyfriend thinks about your friends. If you can not show real interest in them, you will probably stop looking at you shortly. Your boy should want to know the people closest to you and if that costs him, it is that he has not matured yet.\n11. It does not respond to your calls or your messages all day long. When it does, it has no excuse for not having picked it up before. Logically, you have to give space to your boy, but neither should he disappear for hours or days without a reasonable explanation.\n12. Does he openly compare you to Instagram girls? Who cares if that fashion blogger had jeans perfect? It is unacceptable that you compare yourself to another woman, even if it is one you will never meet.\n13. Do not mind forgetting your birthday. It may happen that you forget a birthday, but if you do not feel guilty or find it funny that you feel sad about it, it will not be so easy to forgive.\n14. Do not respect your personal items? Take your car for longer than you said it would? Do you throw crumbs on your keyboard and do not clean it? If you do all this without apology, you are clearly dating a large child.\n15. Everything causes jealousy Jealousy can ruin a relationship, so if it does not stop telling you to stop talking with your friends or discuss with each person who looks at you on the street, you should consider how that kind of obsessive control will affect your future .\n16. Always have your phone in your hand When you are spending time together, you should not accept that, while you are hugging, this at the same time watching your Facebook or staying on Whatsapp with your friends. Your boy should always pay attention to you and, if he does not, you should pay attention to another.\n17. Play the console every time you have a free time? We all love video games! If it's your way of escaping, we respect you, but if you like to "get away" every night and every weekend playing Fifa ... your relationship has a problem.\n18. He complains all the time Going through things that can not be changed ends up being unbearable. If your boyfriend can not stop whining telling you how horrible his life is, you should tell him to mature or if not, you will have to say goodbye.\n19. Never "return the favor" Your boy should always be willing to kiss and caress your entire body, especially if you know how attractive you are to him. If you do everything you can to make him feel happy, why should not your boyfriend do the same for you? You also have to be generous in privacy!\n20. He is a teacher of avoiding conflicts. If your boy can not have an adult conversation about the things that bother you, then it is clear that he does not care about your relationship and it is time for you to do something about it.

Gold received a boost on Friday after a much weaker than expected Non Farms Payroll number was released (74,000 new jobs v 200,000 expected), with the price surging $20 higher and the dollar coming under pressure as the tapering of QE came into question.\nBizarrely, the unemployment rate collapsed to 6.7%, a sign perhaps of people leaving the employment market and giving up on finding a job.\nHowever, we consider this to be a temporary blip and expect the rally will be seen as an opportunity to open frsh shorts and close out on longs. The high overnight was 1255 and we do not expect 1260 to be breached.\nIn addition, gold has now reached the long term down trend line on the weekly chart which should hold the price.\nThe dollar was making headway above the 81 level before the NFP shock, the bulls will be eager to push the index back above that key level this week, whilst stocks continue to steadily climb higher.\nToday's video for subscribers looks at the recent trading in more detail and our throughts for our next trade.

A Catholic priest who was stabbed as he was celebrating mass at Montreal's St. Joseph's Oratory is recovering at home.\nA spokeswoman for the church says Rev.

We are an all-age specialist school for cognition and learning - a community special school based in Scarborough, North Yorkshire. Our pupils have a wide range of learning needs including complex moderate, severe or profound learning difficulties or disabilities. We are registered for pupils aged between 2 and 19 years and many have a broad range of additional special educational needs such as autism, physical disabilities, complex medical needs or social emotional mental health issues, but all of which are combined with learning needs.\nPupils aged up to 16 (up to the end of KS4) are educated on our main school site on Barry's Lane, Scarborough. Some of our younger pupils with profound and multiple learning difficulties are based in our specialist, interactive resource centre (The Learning Zone) with Falsgrave Community Centre, 700 yards away from the main site.\nSixth Form students have their own discrete provision across town, based on Lady Edith's Drive, just over 2 miles from the main site. This opened in September 2017 and offers spacious accommodation in a more adult learning environment.\nBetween the various school sites, and within the local community, our pupils and students benefit from excellent facilities. For example, our Learning Zone at Falsgrave Community Centre has been developed as an interactive learning environment which serves as a base for some pupils, and is used for clubs during the school holidays. A short walk from our main school site is the Scarborough Sports Village with state of the art facilities including swimming pool. We also regularly use Scarborough Rugby Club.\nEach year the school hires a beach chalet, and the curriculum in the summer term is designed around regular access to the beach. The school has a hydrotherapy pool on the main site with a state of the art light and sound system. We share this beyond the school day with pupils from other schools. Springhead School is a 'Specialist School' for Cognition and Learning. We are funded by the Local Authority, with three other special schools across North Yorkshire, to run the Severe / Complex Learning Difficulties Outreach Support for mainstream schools, supporting them to meet the learning needs of pupils with increasingly complex learning difficulties.\nFamilies of any prospective pupils are warmly welcome to contact the school to arrange a visit and a personal appointment with the head teacher, Mrs Debbie Wilson.\nAs a parent I feel cared for, and my daughter has gained great independence since coming to this school.\nThe staff are smiley and positive. Without this school, my son would not be where he is today. If you knew him before he came here - what a difference!\nWhen I come into this school I am surrounded by a bubble of positiveness.\nI am very happy with this school. I appreciate its friendliness and positive approach.\nMy son started Sixth Form last September. What a difference a year at this school has made!

Aranjuez is the latest Koziupa and Paul adventure. This time, they max out on calligraphic art deco, then add a healthy dose of the thick-and-thin mantra that’s been so trendy for quite a few years now. The result is neo-psychedelia in an upright cross-breed of pseudo-wood deco and ornamental calligraphy, complete with alternates, swashes, endings, playful contrast treatments, and even background possibilities. This font is quite expressive, and its elegance is meant to be shown prominently. So use it for packaging, book covers, or wherever the message needs to be delivered clearly and with a precisely controlled touch of class.

Only months after the 2008 primaries, most Americans probably don’t remember Mike Huckabee or Ron Paul. But that doesn’t mean the conservative populism they championed during their campaigns for the Republican presidential nomination is as fleeting as their dark-horse candidacies.\nSince rank-and-file House Republicans began criticizing October’s Wall Street bailout, a growing faction of the GOP has been channeling the country’s rage at Corporate America with us-versus-them rhetoric and appeals to economic patriotism. And they are getting help from a Democratic Party whose actions often imply subservience to Big Money.\nRecall that the majority of House Democrats voted to ratify the bank bailout, and the majority of House Republicans opposed it. Recall, too, that Democratic Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner is pushing to throw more no-strings-attached cash at Wall Street, while Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., makes headlines with calls to nationalize the banks.\nConversely, when Republicans tried to prevent bailout and stimulus money from subsidizing job outsourcing, Democrats blocked their amendments and President Obama criticized such “Buy America” laws.\nTo be sure, there is a vaudeville quality to all this.\nGingrich is not only the House Speaker who made business lobbyists an official cog in the legislative process. He’s the Washington careerist who has spent his post-government life as an insurance industry mercenary paid to derail serious health care reform, and his “populist” panacea for righting the economy is a proposal to eliminate the capital gains tax, which primarily hits the super-rich. More broadly, while many Democrats joined in the kleptocracy, the Republican Party was the primary force behind almost every regressive tax cut, crony contract, rigged trade deal, deregulation scheme, corporate welfare handout and “elite bill” that became law over the last three decades. The idea that the GOP’s Nottingham Sheriffs have genuinely become Robin Hoods might be plausible in a burlesque subtitled “Men in Tights” ” but this is real life, not a Mel Brooks spoof.\nThen again, politics is theater of the absurd, featuring everything from a draft dodger posing as a Top Gun pilot to self-proclaimed “fiscal conservatives” repeatedly voting for deficit-expanding tax breaks. And as the GOP regroups for the mid-term elections, party leaders know that Americans’ memories are short during a recession and that rhetoric can substitute for reality in a campaign. They also understand the electoral power of economic populism, even as an appeal to base Republican voters.\nDuring the presidential primary, for example, Huckabee won eight conservative states thanks to his speeches calling Wall Street CEOs “criminals,” demanding Americans get the same health care as members of Congress, and criticizing unfair trade policies. Meanwhile, Paul attacked “corporations on welfare” who are “dumping all the bills on Main Street” ” and he raised a whopping $34 million, mostly from individual conservative donors.\nFor this bombast to become a cohesive political program, rebel Republicans will have to do battle with the country clubbers that still control their party ” and to date, those rebels haven’t been willing to wage such an explicit fight. However, should Democrats collude with the very corporate interests that the nation is so angry at ” say, if they obstruct proposals to toughen financial regulations ” they will create the incentive for an internal Republican war to explode. And when the smoke clears, the GOP could have a much different image – one that revives their political prospects for years to come.\nDenver-based David Sirota is the bestselling author of the books “Hostile Takeover” (2006) and “The Uprising” (2008). He is a fellow at the Campaign for America’s Future. Find his blog at OpenLeft.com or e-mail him at [email protected].

Once upon a time, universities gauged the value they provided to students by administering the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA). Now the creator, Council of Aid to Education (CAE), has designed a new standardized version, called CLA+, to wipe away grade inflation and give a true evaluation of a students' learning. This new test will specifically focus on students' critical-thinking skills, and nearly 200 universities will be taking part.\nWith competing ideas of whether college is there to help students learn or to prepare them for the working world, this test allows students to show a more tangible degree of knowledge and skill at graduation that serves both sides. Besides a degree, a student can now carry away a score that represents their knowledge level. It will also negate the weight a certain college name or location carries, and base the assessment instead on each test-taker’s skill level. It will no longer matter if you attended an Ivy League, state school, or online university. Your score could now represent more than just your alma mater.\nFor an online university or traditional campus, the CLA+ can improve how potential students and employers view their programs. As larger groups of students graduate, they will have a more accurate way to track what students are learning through the college experience. The university can then adjust and work to improve their overall offering. This fine-tuning could also help eliminate the questions of if a college is worth the tuition (if students score well) and if a specific degree is going to offer the right skills to help place a student in their desired career.\nThe $35 CLA+ test has already been beta-tested by 20 universities; but it is still far from proven on the larger scale. Will it work like the SATs did for high school students entering college? Will the results give true results that students, parents, and employers trust? Will it be accepted as the standard? I’m not sure yet, but the potential of the test is excellent. With CLA+, each student has the opportunity to choose the right university and degree while moving themselves one step ahead of other students after graduation.

Dinner for Education - Empowering African Youths Through Education!\nAnother 'Dinner for Education' event in the bag. What a fun evening! We had such a blast hosting and couldn't have asked for better company, conversation, space and of course food. This intimate dinner took place at Lenox Saphire Lounge in Harlem and featured a scrumptious two-course authentic Senegalese meal. Senegalese food is not something many people have had before, so it was a pleasure to give our food-curious guests a port of entry into this rich and delicious West African cuisine all in the name of charity. The dinner menu offered choices of traditional dishes like Thiebu Djen (pronounced chew-boo jen), Mafe etc. as well as a popular Senegalese drink - red Bissap which is is steeped from hibiscus flowers. If you haven’t tried African food, we strongly urge you to head up to Harlem and explore the delicious depths of Senegalese cuisine. Our heartfelt thanks to everyone at Lenox Saphire for your amazing service and yummy food, and to our amazing guests for their unwavering support. See you at Dinner for Education IV!\nEvery year we host a charity event to help raise much needed funds to support our youth empowerment projects for young people in Africa. Last night we hosted our second Dinner for Education event at Nomad New York . The dinner featured an amazing, authentic three-course mediterranean feast. A great big thank you to Nomad for hosting us and to everyone that attended. We look forward to many more dinners like this to support our programs that benefit at-risk youth in Africa.\nPlease enjoy photos from the event below.\nsupport to disadvantaged youth in Africa. For our first intimate dinner we chose Braai NYC - a charming South African barbecue & seafood restaurant located in the heart of Manhattan's theatre district. The word “Braai” is South African for “Barbecue” or “Grill” and is more than a social custom in South Africa - it is a way of life. Around 30 guests attended the dinner, in fact more than we expected so we ended up having to set up extra tables. Attendees were treated to a four-course meal that included an array of delicious appetizers, entrees and desserts from South Africa. The food was delicious, the portions substantial and the atmosphere warm and enchanting. Just when we thought we had finished with one dish another delectable treat was brought out from the kitchen. Overall everyone left satisfied, stuffed and appreciative of the experience and excited about our next event. A great big thank you to everyone at Braai South African restaurant for making our experience so enjoyable and of course our guests for coming out to learn more about our organization and help support our work.\nWe can't wait to plan our next dinner and hope that you will join us on our journey through Africa to support children in need.\nFor photos from the event please see below.

Normal faults grow via a sympathetic increase in their displacement and length (‘isolated model’) or by rapid establishment of their near-final length prior to significant displacement accumulation (‘constant-length model’). The isolated model has dominated the structural geology literature for >30 years, although some 3D seismic data-based studies support the constant-length model. Because they make different predictions regarding rift development, and earthquake size and recurrence intervals in areas of continental extension, it is critical to test these models with data from natural examples. Here we outline a range of techniques that constrain the kinematics of synsedimentary normal faults and thus test competing fault growth models. We then apply these techniques to three seismically imaged faults, showing that, in general, they grew in accordance with the constant-length model, although periods of relatively minor tip propagation and coeval displacement accumulation, characteristics more consistent with the isolated model, also occurred. We argue that analysis of growth strata represents the best way to test competing fault growth models; most studies utilizing this approach support the constant-length fault model, suggesting it may be more widely applicable than is currently assumed. It is plausible that the very early development of large faults is, however, characterized by the development of faults that, pre-linkage, grow in accordance with the isolated model; we may simply lack the data resolution, especially in the subsurface, to resolve this very early stage of fault growth.

Disneyland has an amazing array of activities to celebrate Christmas and the holiday season. We did not want to miss any of the special Disneyland holiday details, so we decided to book our first ever Disney tour. The Holiday Time at the Disneyland Resort Tour was a unique experience and provided us a memorable afternoon immersed in the holiday spirit topped off with amazing parade seats.\nCheck here for more information about Disneyland at the holidays.\nWhat is The Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour?\nHoliday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour is available seasonally and is a guided walking tour with a Disney tour guide. This 2½-hour group tour takes you through both Disney California Adventure and Disneyland Park holiday decorations. Our tour also included a ride on It’s A Small World Holiday before ending at reserved seating for A Christmas Fantasy Parade.\nPlease note: The official tour information states your guide will show decorations at both parks and have reserved parade seating to end the tour. The ride on It’s A Small World Holiday was a surprise to me. When I booked the tour staff members told me the ride was not specifically included.\nOur guide, Kayla, was incredible and knowledgeable about the parks. She did a great job of teaching our group how the holidays are celebrated at Disneyland. In fact, Kayla went out of her way to answer all the questions Elizabeth had about the park decorations and even non-holiday questions, too.\nWhat Should I Expect During The Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour?\nYou will check in for the Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour about 30 minutes prior to your tour start time.\nWhen you enter Disneyland Park go through the left side opening under the train tracks. Tour Gardens is a small white building located just past the tunnel on the left. I had never noticed it before, but immediately spotted it once I knew what I was looking for.\nWe were asked about food allergies as we checked in for Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour. Unfortunately, my daughter does have an uncommon food allergy which I shared with the cast member.\nThere are three treats provided during the tour and all three had the potential to be an issue. The cast member kindly provided Elizabeth three special snack vouchers that then she was able to use to obtain her own safe treats.\nFind out more about dealing with food allergies at Disneyland here.\nRight around our scheduled tour start time, Kayla began passing out headsets to everyone in the group. These headsets are pretty amazing. Kayla was able to speak into her microphone and everyone could clearly hear her on the headset. I thought this was especially impressive since the park was crowded and loud on our tour day.\nAfter everyone had their headsets set up it was time to start. We left Disneyland and walked over to Disney California Adventure to begin our tour. A cast member opened a side gate to allow us entry into the park instead of having to enter through the regular line.\nOnce we were all inside the park, Kayla began to show us special details around Buena Vista Street. After this we made our way up the street to admire the Christmas tree near Carthay Circle.\nOnce we arrived at the tree, Kayla showed us some fun details on and under the tree, but I won’t spoil the specifics. After she finished her speech we then heard an audio recording of Walt himself talking about a special Christmas gift he gave his wife.\nNext we moved to Cars Land where Kayla pointed out many of the special Christmas details. Since this was the last day of our trip we had already spent a lot of time in this area. Kayla joked that Elizabeth could have given the tour for that section and loved that Elizabeth was so into the intricate details.\nFrom there we walked past Grizzly Peak and made our way to Trolley Treats back on Buena Vista Street. Here we learned about the history of gingerbread houses and the Disneyland Candy Cane tradition.\nOnce we were done learning we were rewarded with some amazing chocolate peppermint fudge. Mr. Smart Mouse and I shared the huge chunk of fudge as we walked back over into Disneyland Park.\nOur first stop back at Disneyland was Main Street where we could admire the massive 60-foot (20-meter) Christmas tree. The tree is such an important part of Disneyland that all year long the spot where it sits is called Christmas Tree Point. This is true even when the iconic Mickey pumpkins reside there.\nKayla also showed us a Christmas tree in the window above the Disneyland Fire Department. This apartment was once used by Walt and his family. The Christmas tree in the window remains lit 24 hours a day throughout the holiday season. We went back later that evening to see the tree more easily in the dark.\nFrom Main Street we walked to the area near Jungle Cruise. Here Kayla pointed out the jungle inspired Christmas tree and then gave us a small break. We had the opportunity to run to the bathroom and grab a drink from the nearby stand before resuming the tour.\nNext we went to New Orleans Square to learn about the Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay, but did not ride or see the outside in depth. Our guide also showed us other decorations in the area and taught us about Papa Noel, the Cajun version of Santa Claus.\nFrom New Orleans Square we walked as a group past Frontier Land before arriving at It’s A Small World Holiday. Here I was surprised to find that we were going to have specialty access to ride this amazing holiday attraction.\nWe rejoined our guide as we exited It’s A Small World Holiday, and were then ushered to our reserved seating for A Christmas Fantasy parade. A single file line of chairs was waiting for us across from It’s A Small World Holiday.\nThe reserved parade seating is in a great location and having a seat for a parade was such a treat. As soon as we were seated our guide passed out Gingerbread Men cookies, hot chocolate in specialty mugs, and Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort pins!\nFrom this amazing vantage point we enjoyed every moment of A Christmas Fantasy Parade. The parade was so fun and entertaining I couldn’t believe how quickly the 30 minutes flew by. We were all so disappointed that our tour was at an end.\nI just happened to have my comfortable, but basic wired earbuds in my park bag. My earbuds plugged right into the receiver. It was really comfortable to have my own headphones for the tour.\nMost of the adults did not have their own headphones. Those without headphones were provided an earpiece that sits over one ear. Unfortunately, this earpiece was too large for Elizabeth.\nCast members found her old fashioned over the head headphones which worked out fine. I told her she looked like Star-Lord in them because they reminded me of the old Walkman headphones (sigh, I may be showing my age).\nIf someone in your group has a food allergy and needs to use the snack vouchers I recommend grabbing something prior to the start of the tour. Cast members provide the food to attendees very quickly during the tour. If I had not pre-purchased an item (with the voucher) we would not have had time to obtain a safe snack while on the tour.\nI didn’t realize that we would be getting treats, let alone large travel mugs as part of our Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour. After the tour we found we had a lot more items than I had room to carry. Since we were staying at Disney’s Grand Californian my husband was nice enough to run the swag back to the resort for us.\nThe Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour required considerable walking and standing. We made a loop around Disney California Adventure and most of Disneyland Park, too.\nHow Do You Book The Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour?\nBook tours in person at Tour Gardens or by phone at (714) 781-8687.\nHow Much Does The Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour Cost?\nDuring the 2018 season the Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour cost is $85 per person. Annual passholders have a discount so a ticket runs $72.25 per person. Please note you must also have valid park admission to attend the tour.\nOn the way home I asked Elizabeth her favorite Disneyland Christmas activities from the trip. She said her absolute favorite thing was the tour and A Christmas Fantasy Parade.\nI really enjoyed the tour as well. My only regret is that we did the tour on our last park day. I think it would have been better to do the tour early in the trip. That way we could have gone back to look at things again later.\nThe tour is available for kids and adults, however I think that some younger children might not care for the tour. Smaller kids may get antsy while the guide is talking or be upset you walk past attractions, but can not stop for them. You know your child best so carefully consider before booking your own Holiday Time At The Disneyland Resort Tour.\nThis tour was enjoyable and the reserved seating for A Christmas Fantasy Parade was amazing. Kayla, our tour guide, was also knowledgeable and kind. She made the tour experience extra special for my daughter and has me thinking about taking a different Disney Parks tour sometime soon.\nCheck out our other Disneyland articles to help plan your next trip.

Reading tutor Al Moore (left) works with a high school freshman in his Alexandria, Va., office. Moore aims to identify effective reading programs for struggling students based on their individual needs.\nLearning to read is probably the single most critical skill that a child will acquire in his or her lifetime. Yet we as educators have not fully mastered the art of ensuring that every child learns to read. Having spent nearly a decade treating students with learning disabilities, reading disorders, dyslexia, autism, anxiety, and ADHD, and designing reading interventions that have been used in schools, I recognize there’s no silver bullet to fixing a reading problem.\nAre you talking about students who can’t figure out the words on the page (fluency), or students who can’t make sense of the material they are reading (comprehension)? If it’s a fluency issue, does the problem stem from an inability to sound out and decode unknown words (phonemic awareness)? Or does the problem seem to be a sluggish reading rate and a poor ability to quickly recall words on sight (graphemic imagery)? If it’s a comprehension issue, is the problem with absorbing the details and making connections (receptive), or with retelling—in writing or orally—that information in a logically connected, organized way (expressive)?\nYou probably don’t have all the answers to these questions, and that’s OK. Just asking them at all will help you gain a clearer understanding of the sort of challenges you’re up against— and that’s the first step in choosing a good reading program for your students.\nKnow the Signs That Can Help Identify the Type of Reading Problem.\nIf you’re having trouble determining the type of reading deficit your students are experiencing, take a look at the indicators shown in the below chart. Recognizing these signs can give you an early indication of which support strategy will be most effective for your group.\nKeep in mind that students can have a single reading deficit or a dual one, where they exhibit a combination of more than one type of reading problem. When this happens, it’s best to target one deficit at a time, rather than attempting to correct everything in one fell swoop.\nAn effective reading program includes exercises that target the specific reading deficit that needs improvement. Accordingly, it should start with some sort of diagnostic measure to help you identify that deficit. Ignoring this step is to assume that all reading challenges are the same, and that intervention is simply a matter of figuring out what skills have not been mastered and then re-teaching them.\nGood diagnostic measures account for the variant types of reading deficits. For example, the diagnostic can help determine whether there is a fluency and comprehension problem (dual deficit), or a fluency problem that is limiting comprehension (single deficit). A thorough diagnostic measure can also give an indication of whether the cause of the reading deficit is instructional or cognitive in nature. If the cause is instructional, then some factor—a prolonged illness and absence from school, or a previously undiagnosed case of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder—has caused gaps in specific content knowledge. If the reading deficit is cognitive, the problem is caused by the way the brain processes information. In general, cognitive deficits require a more in-depth treatment approach, with a longer duration and greater intervention frequency.\nIf the reading program doesn’t include an assessment tool, there are some great independent ones available. The Phonological Awareness Test 2 (LinguiSystems), the Wide Range Achievement Test (PAR), and the Woodcock-Johnson are just a few of the tests that can be used in an effective assessment-guided approach.\nWhether the reading deficit is instructional or cognitive, fluency-based or comprehension-based, it’s a good idea to incorporate cognition exercises into the intervention. Cognition exercises improve reading by strengthening the brain’s ability to process information and function. Interestingly, the cognition exercises you can use to improve reading may not be reading activities at all.\nFor instance, there’s a neat little card game called On the Dot that can be used as a cognitive exercise. The game improves visual perception and spatial reasoning—both of which are cognitive processes—by having players stack and align the images on semi-transparent cards. This sort of activity can strengthen visual acuity, which helps to reduce the number of reading substitutions (miscues) and line skips a student makes.\nMany off-the-shelf programs include cognition exercises. For example, Seeing Stars, Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes’ fluency program, asks students to visualize real and nonsense words and then transpose, add, delete, or substitute letters to make new words. This helps students practice maintaining a strong, stable mental image of an orthographic pattern—so strong that they can manipulate it and still recall it afterward.\nIf a program does not include a cognitive component, you can do cognition exercises or activities with your class and reap the benefits. For example, the game Guess Who also stimulates cognition and helps with comprehension. The objective of the game is to guess your opponent’s character by asking questions about the character’s looks and eliminating those that don’t fit the description. For students who struggle with comprehension or listening to and following directions, Guess Who reinforces auditory processing, short term memory, and decision-making. With increasing ability in these areas, students can more easily connect details in a passage, get the big picture, and recall information. Memory, the card game in which you have to flip over and match identical pictures, is another example. Practicing the identification and recall of visual images helps to strengthen those same processes in identifying and recalling letters and letter patterns.\nWithout the proper emphasis on cognition, we assume by default that students primarily need to hear the information again. And that’s essentially all that’s done in some cases: a re-telling of the same information, perhaps in a more interesting way or with an improved support plan. Dynamic instruction is important. A systematic support plan is important as well. But if the cause of the reading deficit is cognitive, then the emphasis must be on implementing cognition exercises that will stimulate the brain to engage and process the concepts in a new manner. Without it, we fool ourselves about the effectiveness of our strategies and fail to maximize the potential of our students. We become like the instructor who replies to his pupil’s confusion not by providing further insight and clarity, but by repeating his initial explanation in a louder voice.\nIf you need to supplement an intervention program with more cognition exercises, a great place to find activities is Marbles: The Brain Store. Marbles has a variety of cognitive games, activities, and software that can strengthen processing skills. Look for activities that stimulate visual or auditory memory, processing speed, visual or auditory attention, decision speed, or auditory discrimination, as these are cognitive processes that undergird strong reading skills.\nSelect an Appropriate Research-Based Reading Program That Brings Together Elements of Strong Reading Intervention.\nIf you’re still not sure what kinds of reading programs I’m referring to, some examples are provided in the accompanying chart. Keep in mind that these programs can be expensive and that some require more extensive professional development than others.\nChoosing a good program is about fit. It is better to identify student need and match a program from there than it is to choose a program just because it has cognition exercises and an assessment-guided approach. Remember, you’re not searching for the perfect program—you’re searching for the perfect program for your students. Hopefully these tips will help you do just that.\nAl Moore is the founder and executive director of Acelin Learning Solutions Inc., in Washington, D.C., which specializes in providing cognitive-based programs designed to address the neurobiological dysfunctions correlated with reading disorders and learning disabilities. He has also been involved in numerous literacy and community service projects, including DC Reads and the Guide Right Program. He has more than 10 years of experience in the reading-remediation field.

By CCN.com: Bitcoin transactions surged to a 14-month high on Wednesday, reaching levels not seen since the peak of 2017’s cryptocurrency bull run.\nIt comes as financial ratings firm Weiss said “the best time to invest could be very near,” citing the “remarkable growth in user transaction volume”.\nThe Bitcoin network recorded 383,186 transactions on Wednesday 27th March, according to data from blockchain.com. It’s the highest number since January 4th 2018, when bitcoin prices were at $17,000.\nBitcoin transaction volume is a strong fundamental indicator of growth. It suggests that bitcoin is being actively used beyond pure speculation. However, the surge in transactions hasn’t been reflected in the price of BTC , which remains stuck at the $4,000 level.\nThe sustained rise in bitcoin transaction volume, Weiss suggests, means the perfect investment point could be near.\nThe spike in transactions is yet another sign that bitcoin’s epic “winter” is coming to an end. As CCN previously reported, bitcoin broke its longest string of monthly losses in February, a clear bull signal according to ThinkMarketsUK.\nThinkMarketsUK’s chief market analyst Naeem Aslam even suggested bitcoin could surge to $400,000.\nDespite the surging transaction volumes, bitcoin has a number of technical factors to overcome before initiating a full rally.\nAs CCN reported, the bitcoin price is battling a huge and significant descending trend line. Holding above the $4,000 mark is a strong psychological factor, but BTC ideally needs to surpass and hold above $4,100 to show true bullish strength.\nThe Weiss cryptocurrency report also ranked the top cryptocurrencies according to technology and adoption criteria.\nWeiss also issued A ratings to XRP and EOS. The report claims XRP is “best positioned to beat SWIFT” on interbank transfers, while EOS is poised to “become the backbone of the new internet.” Weiss ranks EOS higher than Ethereum due to the latter’s struggle with scaling.

There is so much information - how do you find what you need?\nWith the references listed in Tom Phillips "Kitchen Ventilation Resources" discussion, you can become educated quite quickly.\nAnother good introduction is the ROCIS Kitchen Range Hood document: http://rocis.org/kitchen-range-hoods This document is backed up with supplementary information on many topics including ways to reduce cooking emissions and vented range hood installation guidance.\nIf you already have a good knowledge of the equipment and venting systems available, then you should browse Brett Singer's presentation here: https://www.arb.ca.gov/research/seminars/singer2/singer2.pdf These 78 slides cover everything you need to know about the LBNL range hood research. Lots of information - lots of graphs, but you will emerge more knowledgeable.\nThere is one missing piece of data on range hoods - the "capture efficiency". When you are using the range hood, what proportion of the stove and cooking emissions is being exhausted? The tests for this range hood attribute are being developed. Until they are complete and range hoods have been tested to the protocol, the capture efficiency of any range hood will have to be estimated.\nre: Capture Efficiency, the ROÇIS Kitchen Range Hood document addresses what hood shapes and installation steps to get good Capture Efficiency in general, pending the CE ratings from HVI. This info is in Range Hood Supplement 2: Criteria for Selecting an Effective Ducted Range Hood, which is also part of the Main Document.\nBTW, Iain Walker confirmed recently that HVI still expects to have the testing & ratings system in place by the end of this year, after working out details on the testing protocols.\nHas anyone installed a range hood in an older home with the ducting down to the basement and out near grade? It seems to me that this might be an easier installation particularly with an unfinished basement.\nHave not heard of this approach, but I am sure somebody has done it.\nSounds like a potential problem for grease and/or moisture build up in the ductwork.\nThere should not be any greater grease deposition. As well, in an unfinished basement, the ducting is accessible for cleaning in that eventuality.\nOne of our ROCIS cohort participants did that. Their gas stove is on an island. They put the exhaust behind and slightly above the stove. I tested it with a flow hood, and it was a pretty high flow rate - 500 CFM as I recall. The d occupants do a fair bit of cooking and it doeas appear to effectively draw moisture and emissions from cooking. An overhead location would provide for better capture. Ducting is 8 inch round, and fan is inline, I believe.\nWe have lots of ROCIS LCMP Pittsburgh homes with kitchen stoves on interior walls and no range hoods. It does appear that having range hoods exhausted through the basement could be a less expensive installation than going through a two-story house and up through the attic, or ducting horizontally through a bulkhead to an exterior wall.\nIf you scroll down to one of the last slides, Results of Exposure Study, you can see that there is about a 16:1 reduction in the cook's exposure when using a proper range hood.\nBTW, it is a modeling study , based lab data and assumed outdoor PM2.5 levels and infiltration rates, and an electric stove.\n"your exposure results may vary", e.g., if you have higher outdoor PM levels, higher emissions from cooking, open kitchen area, etc.\nAlso, I have an inquiry in to some residnetial ventilaiton folks re: condensation issues in exhaust vents, at low spots and with negative slopes.

"Ocean Beach, California" redirects here. For the beach in San Francisco, see Ocean Beach, San Francisco.\nOcean Beach (also known as O.B.) is a beachfront neighborhood of San Diego, California.\nOcean Beach lies on the Pacific Ocean at the estuary of the San Diego River, at the western terminus of Interstate 8. Located about 7 miles (11 km) northwest of Downtown San Diego, it sits south of Mission Bay and Mission Beach and directly north of Point Loma. The O.B. community planning area comprises about 1 square mile (742 acres), bounded on the north by the San Diego River, on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the east by Froude St., Seaside St. and West Point Loma Boulevard, and on the south by Adair Street.\nThe beach's initial name was Mussel Beach, for the mussels available there. Its current name, Ocean Beach, was given in 1887 by developers Billy Carlson and Albert E. Higgins.\nThe pair built the Cliff House, a resort hotel, and subdivided the area into lots. To promote their subdivision, Carlson and Higgins organized various activities, including mussel roasts and concerts. Despite their efforts, the development did not do well, because it was two and a half hours by carriage from downtown San Diego. They rented a locomotive, but by that time, the boom ended and the development was put on hold. The Ocean Beach Railroad, launched in April 1888, was a casualty of the economic decline. Passengers could take a ferry from San Diego to Roseville in Point Loma to ride the train to the Cliff House. Later, Higgins committed suicide, and a fire started by a fallen chandelier burnt down the Cliff House in 1898. Carlson sold the Ocean Beach tract to an Eastern financier, delaying its development for 20 years.\nCarlson and Higgins were not the first to file a subdivision map in Ocean Beach. They filed with the city on May 28, 1887, but on April 22 of that year J.M. DePuy filed "DePuy's Subdivision" on 15 blocks in the northern portion of O.B.\nOne of the earliest residents of Ocean Beach was D. C. Collier, who bought oceanfront property there in 1887 when he was just 16. He later became one of the "fathers" of Ocean Beach, laying out streets, promoting sales, and building the Point Loma Railroad in 1909 to connect Ocean Beach with the rest of San Diego. By 1910 there were 100 houses in Ocean Beach, compared to just 18 two years earlier. According to historian Ruth Held, Collier's rail line "made OB possible." He also built Ocean Beach Elementary School (a two-room school) and donated park land to the city. Most of that land became Cleator Community Park (a ballfield), Correia Middle School (originally named Collier Junior High School), a YMCA and a church; a small remnant at Greene and Soto streets is still called Collier Park.\nThe northern end of Ocean Beach was dominated in the early 20th century by the Wonderland Amusement Park, which opened on July 4, 1913 and was constructed on eight oceanfront acres at Voltaire and Abbott streets. It boasted a large roller coaster, dance pavilion, menagerie, roller skating rink, merry-go-round, children's playground, a petting zoo with a variety of animals including 500 monkeys, and 22,000 lights outlining the buildings. However, Wonderland went bankrupt in 1915 due to competition from the Panama-California Exposition in Balboa Park and was sold at auction. It closed in 1916 after winter storms damaged the roller coaster. The name "Wonderland" lives on in some Ocean Beach business names as well as the title of a documentary series on KPBS television hosted by Ocean Beach native Noah Tafolla.\nIn 1915, John D. Spreckels and his Bayshore Railway Company built a 1,500 feet (460 m) wooden bridge connecting Ocean Beach with Mission Beach. The company used the bridge for a trolley, part of the San Diego Class 1 Streetcars, which connected OB with Downtown San Diego and encouraged the development of both Ocean Beach and Mission Beach. The bridge was demolished in January 1951, thereby cutting off through traffic to Ocean Beach from the Mission Beach and Pacific Beach communities.\nThe small cottages, bungalows, single-family homes and two-storied apartments in the residential areas, were filled with college students from several local colleges, joined by a good number of sailors, retirees and middle-class families. Some of the bungalows built as tourist accommodations atop the cliffs on either side of Niagara Avenue are still in use as businesses and homes.\nWith the dredging and development of Mission Bay and the dismantling of the Ocean Beach-Mission Beach bridge, O.B. became geographically isolated from the rest of San Diego and the other beach communities, until the construction of Interstate 8 in 1967. The westernmost segment of I-8 from Interstate 5 to the terminus in Ocean Beach is officially labeled the "Ocean Beach Freeway".\nSurfing was introduced to San Diego at Ocean Beach in 1916 when a local lifeguard borrowed a board from Duke Kahanamoku (although it's possible that George Freeth surfed there between 1907 and 1909). By 1966, the sport was sufficiently established that the World Surfing Championship was held in O.B. Nat Young won the event and was named world surfing champion.\nOcean Beach was once known as the Haight-Ashbury of San Diego. The community became an attraction for hippies, who eventually became accepted by many local business establishments. The Black headshop opened on Newport Avenue, as well as the Ocean Beach People's Organic Food Market.\nBeginning in the early 1970s, local development and land interests pressed for the development of Ocean Beach's oceanfront, with plans for tourist-oriented resorts, hotels and a marina outlined in the Ocean Beach Precise Plan. With the passage of a 30-foot (9.1 m) height limit in 1972 and the re-writing of the Precise Plan, the development plans for the waterfront were abandoned.\nOcean Beach contains the Ocean Beach Cottage Emerging Historic District consisting of various Craftsman bungalows, cottages and other structures built from 1887–1931.\nThere are a number of other individual San Diego Historic Landmarks in Ocean Beach. Designated city historic landmark buildings are the Ocean Beach Library and Strand Theater.\nThe economy of Ocean Beach is dominated by small, independent retail businesses. Newport Avenue, the main business street, featured family-owned businesses from the 1930s through the 1960s, such as a bakery, drug stores, a book and novelty shop, a shoe store, men's and women's apparel shops, and a family-owned pet store. In the 1960s and 1970s larger stores and shopping malls elsewhere in the city gradually ran the small local stores out of business. Many of the storefronts were then turned into antique stores, and the area is now known as the Ocean Beach Antique District. Also on Newport are restaurants, head shops, tattoo and piercing shops, coffee houses, bars, bike and surf shops, and an international youth hostel. In 1969 Hodad's opened on Newport, gaining national attention in 2007 after appearing on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. There are several small independent hotels in O.B., but no nationally franchised hotels.\nThe community has actively opposed chain businesses opening in Ocean Beach, and only a few exist there. In the 1970s, community protests led a chain of donut stores to drop its plans to open a store in O.B. In 2000 an Exxon station abandoned its attempt to open a gas station there. In 2001, an organized grassroots effort attempted unsuccessfully to block Starbucks from opening a coffee shop in Ocean Beach.\nOcean Beach is the site of a historic single-screen movie house; The Strand Theatre, which opened in November 1925. In the late 1970s, the Strand survived with midnight showings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show on Friday and Saturday nights. By the early 1980s it was running pornographic films. Community reaction forced it to change back to regular films. It closed in the 1990s and was converted into a clothing store after several failed attempts to preserve it as a theater. The theater was designated a historic building by the San Diego Historical Resources Board in December 2002.\nResidents of Ocean Beach often refer to themselves as "OBceans" or "OBecians," which is pronounced "oh-BEE-shun" (although the proper spelling is a matter of dispute).\nOcean Beach has two schools: Ocean Beach Elementary (a K-4 public school) and Warren-Walker (a K-8 private school). The community also features multiple churches, a public library, a U.S. post office, and a vegetarian food co-op. Recreational facilities include the Ocean Beach Recreation Center, Dusty Rhodes Park, and the Robb Field athletic fields and skate park.\nLocal organizations include the Ocean Beach Town Council, the Ocean Beach Mainstreet Association, a Kiwanis club, and the Ocean Beach Historical Society. The Ocean Beach Planning Board advises the city regarding growth and development.\nLocal events include the Ocean Beach Street Fair and Chili Cookoff in late June, a jazz festival at the foot of Newport in late September, the Ocean Beach Christmas Parade in early December, the Ocean Beach Kite Festival on the third Saturday of May, and the Ocean Beach Canine Carnival on the third Saturday in October. On Wednesday afternoons two blocks of Newport Avenue are closed for a farmers' market.\nThe 1,971-foot (601 m) Ocean Beach Municipal Pier, built in 1966, is the longest concrete pier in the world and the second longest ocean pier in California. The pier supports a restaurant and bait shop (Ocean Beach Pier Cafe), which is located about 200yd/.03m down the pier. It is open 24 hours a day. A concrete walkway spans part of the length of the 1 mile (1.6 km) beach.\nThe northern end of O.B.'s waterfront is known as Dog Beach. It's open 24 hours a day for leash-free dogs and was one of the first such beaches in the United States (founded in 1972).\nOcean Beach and adjacent Point Loma are home to a sizable population of feral parrots and their offspring, known locally as the "O.B. air force." The sub-tropical climate is nearly ideal for parrots. The parrots, mostly Amazons, are most active and vocal at sunrise and sunset.\n^ "Ocean Beach, CA". Ocean Beach Planning Board.

This Art Deco tower is the tallest building in Akron as well as the tallest in Summit County. The base of the tower features extensive decorative detailing. At one time, an observation deck was located at the tower's top but was closed. The crown of the tower is decorated with signage for Huntington Bank, which acquired FirstMerit Bank in 2016.\nArthur Goldner & Associates, Inc.\nThis tower was constructed in the International Style as the centerpiece of Cascade Plaza, an urban renewal site in downtown Akron. The building was formerly known as National City Center.\nThis tower occupies a prominent site at East Mill and South Main Street and features a brick facade.\nBuilt as part of the Cascade Plaza urban renewal scheme, this structure was used as a hotel with 240+ rooms until closed in 2017. In January 2017, a redevelopment plan was announced with a portion of the building slated to become apartments.\nThis Art Deco building was constructed to house operations for the Akron chapter of the YMCA. The YMCA vacated the building in 2011, which was then converted for residential use.\nThis building features a glass facade and is composed of a pair of towers (twelve and nine stories) connected by glass-enclosed walkways. The crown of the building punctuates the structure's prominent location on the University of Akron campus.\nThis building was constructed as the Akron Savings and Loan and occupies a prominent site at Bowery and Main Streets. It features Corinthian columns at its base as well as a detailed cornice. After years of vacancy, the building is slated to undergo redevelopment into a mixed use facility in 2017.

Actually my previous times are invalid because I had more packages available while right now due to a reboot my built package cache has been cleared.\nSo due to there being less packages, it is definitely much faster. However two seconds is still a bit slow.\nOne thing that could speed up searching ZIP entries would be if the hashcode of the entries were stored. However that would be a bit ugly. What I actually could do is binary sort all of the filenames using the String comparator. This way when searching for an entry it happens at a faster rate. This would reduce the number of searches and would find them faster.\nThat however requires being able to read the filename of the directory entries. So perhaps instead of initializing a new file for every pass of the entry, instead what is done is that there is a getEntryName which returns a string of the given index. That way the entry names can be cached and then used to initialize the entries also. Then with this, searching through entries does not have to initialize all of them, it just has to read their name. So this would reduce the number of allocations and parsing performed since creation of ZipEntry would be avoided.\nSeems I never cached read entries, so they were never placed in the array to be used again, so on every get of an entry they were reinitialized.\nSo this is a definite 1 second faster than before.\nWhen it comes to sorted entries, I suppose it should depend on how many entries are within the ZIP and if a request threshold was reached I suppose. However that would complicate things a bit, it would likely be best to just sort them all at the start. However, if ZIPs are just thrown away then the sorting will not matter at all. So I suppose for the package list that ZIPs should remain open?\nIf the ZIP remains open then a binary search would be better. However in the long run, ZIPs will remain open due to being used as resources. When a ZIP is read into the class path, it will pretty much never close as long as a resource or class will need to be looked up (in general cases, this would be common). So a sorted list by name would definitely be faster when it comes to searching by name.\nAnd now my merge sort works. I just need to now test odd sized elements.\nBig-O wise, binary search beats linear search every time, so I will go for a binary search when a ZIP is initialized.\nI need a way to sort the arrays while also remember their original indices and such. The Comparator and sort operation has to go through all entries, however it passes only a string so the entry order is not known. What I could do instead of strings is sort by hashcode. I would have to handle cases where there are duplicate entries since it is unspecified which index is returned if there are duplicates.\nAlternatively, I could sort a fake list sort of. I can have an array of Integer and then use a Comparator on it. The comparator will read the value and then compare the original strings instead. I could alternatively make a merge sort which takes the index based approach and uses that. Basically instead an array of indexes in their sorted order is used. Then once the values are properly sorted, they are moved back into place from the original depending on the actual index position. So the initial array is just an index from 0 through n. This would require all the strings be created but would not need a number of temporary integers to be created. However, I could not use a built in sorting algorithm. So for simplicity, it will be merge sort.\nAlternatively instead of sorting names, I can just have a sort index of references instead. The name search can just go by these indexes instead of using a linear search.\nI am likely to implement the sorting algorithm many times over especially in the CLDC libraries. Therefor I should have generic code be declared and then use the internal sorting code. Internally the sorting of any type of data can just be done with a single integer array of indexes and a special method. Although there would be a slight speed penalty due to method calls, all of the sorting algorithm code would result in no duplicated sorting algorithms. I really do not have to have 9 merge sort algorithm copies for (all primitives, Object, and Lists). The internal sorting algorithm will create a copy integer array with the input elements, then sort them using a special Comparator.\nI am actually going to have to test the sorting algorithm, so make sure that it works properly.\nActually, the class should have a shorter name.\nI believe I have a merge sort now.\nAnd it fails for a given case.\nSeems for this one merge case, one value is never merged in. It is perhaps the result of a merge of sorts.

Magnetic Island is a high continental island that lies approximately 8 kilometres north of the city of Townsville on the north-western side of Cleveland Bay. It is separated from the mainland by the shallow (<15 m) West Channel. Due to its location in Cleveland Bay, the marine habitats of Magnetic Island are diverse. They are characterised by gradients ranging from very wave-protected shallow muddy environments on the leeward sides to wave-exposed windward coastlines with clearer and deeper water. Associated with the high environmental diversity is a broad range of marine communities, ranging from those that are tolerant of muddy, low light conditions to those that are typically found in less turbid environments.

In connection with the proposed acquisition of RelateIQ, Inc., a Delaware corporation (RelateIQ), described in Item 8.01 below, salesforce.com, inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), adopted the 2014 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan (the 2014 Inducement Plan), effective July 10, 2014. Upon the effectiveness of the 2014 Inducement Plan, the Companys 2006 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the 2006 Inducement Plan), was terminated. Termination of the 2006 Inducement Plan did not affect outstanding awards previously issued thereunder.\nThe 2014 Inducement Plan reserves 335,000 shares of Company common stock solely for the granting of inducement stock options and other equity awards to new employees, including employees of acquired companies. In addition, any shares available for issuance under the 2006 Inducement Plan as of July 9, 2014, and any shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2006 Inducement Plan that expire, or are otherwise forfeited to or repurchased by the Company following that date, will become available for future grant under the 2014 Inducement Plan, provided that the maximum number of shares that may become available for issuance under the 2014 Inducement Plan that were previously authorized for issuance under the 2006 Inducement Plan may not exceed 2,750,000.\nThe 2014 Inducement Plan was approved by the Companys Board of Directors and was adopted without stockholder approval in reliance on the employment inducement exemption provided under Rule 303A.08 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual.\nThe foregoing description of the 2014 Inducement Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2014 Inducement Plan, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1.\nSee the disclosure under Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K. In connection with the proposed acquisition of RelateIQ described in Item 8.01 below, the Company has agreed to issue shares of the Companys common stock to RelateIQ stockholders in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined below). This issuance of shares will be made in reliance on one or more of the following exemptions or exclusions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act): Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act.\nOn July 10, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the Merger Agreement) to acquire RelateIQ. RelateIQ provides a relationship intelligence platform that uses data science and machine learning to automatically capture data from email, calendars and smartphone calls and provide data-science-driven insights in real time. Following the acquisition, RelateIQ will be a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.\nUnder the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the acquisition, (i) all outstanding shares of RelateIQ capital stock will be cancelled and converted into shares of the Companys common stock with an aggregate value equal to $350 million, plus the amount of RelateIQs cash balance on August 1, 2014 (which is currently anticipated to be approximately $40 million), subject to customary adjustments, and (ii) unvested stock options and other equity awards of RelateIQ will be assumed by the Company. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the aggregate number of shares of the Companys common stock to be issued in exchange for RelateIQ capital stock will be determined based on the volume-weighted average closing price of the Companys common stock during the ten trading days ending on the second trading day before the closing of the acquisition (the Company Trading Price), provided that, for purposes of determining the aggregate number of shares of Company common stock to be issued under the Merger Agreement in exchange for RelateIQ capital stock, the Company Trading Price will not be more than 110% or less than 90% of the volume-weighted average closing price of the Companys common stock during the ten trading days ending on the second trading day before the signing of the Merger Agreement. As a result, if the acquisition is consummated, the Company expects to issue between approximately 6.2 million and 7.6 million shares of Company common stock in exchange for the outstanding shares of RelateIQ capital stock.\nThe Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and RelateIQ. A portion of the aggregate consideration will be held in escrow to secure the indemnification obligations of the RelateIQ security holders. The closing of the acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. The acquisition is anticipated to close in the Companys third fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2014. The transaction is not expected to have an impact on the Companys guidance for revenue, non-GAAP EPS or operating cash flow for fiscal 2015, as described in the Companys guidance previously disclosed on May 20, 2014. The Company will provide GAAP EPS guidance for fiscal 2015 that takes into account the transaction after it has closed and the purchase accounting has been completed.\nSafe harbor statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements, including statements related to potential acquisitions and financial results.

Can't install any updates-Please help!\nDiscussion in 'macOS' started by Kevinleeowen, Feb 13, 2011.\nMy Macbook completely crashed over the weekend and wiped everything. I've managed to reinstall most things, however, I just can't install any OS X updates. It currently has 10.5.8 and everytime I download the updates, such as 10.6.6 is says "This update requires Mac OS X version 10.6". Also, when I try to install any recent software, it also says it needs at least 10.6 - can anyone PLEASe, please help?\nI've tried Repairing Disk permissions too.\n10.5.8 is the last version of the Leopard operating system. You cannot install updates for system 10.6.x, because you do not have system 10.6. In order to install the 10.6.x updates you need to upgrade to Snow Leopard.\nOk, cool (sorry for being stupid on this!) Assume that's the version you need to buy (in that I can't just 'update')?\nIt costs $29 for an upgrade disc.

The overall message is simple: biomedical innovationand the public policies and new technologies that sustain and advance innovationare crucial to the future of biomedical science and the health and well-being of our society. In fact, I believe innovation leading to new diagnostics and therapeutics is the only answer to our healthcare problems, from treating the scourge of disease to reducing related costs. But while the message is simple, the challenges, of course, are complex. One way to meet these challenges head-on is for all of us in the biomedical community to work together more effectively than ever before. If we look to the recent past, we can see that weve been particularly successful when we collaborate in an environment that encourages innovation. Just look at the dramatic decrease in mortality over the last several decades in key areas of diseaserheumatic heart disease, 83%; atherosclerosis, 74%; ulcers, 72%; ischemic heart disease, 62%; emphysema, 57%, and hypertension, 21%. As a result of these and many other advances, people are living longer. The U.S. population over 65 has increased from 12 million in 1950 to a projected 39 million in 2010. Thats a three-fold increase in just 60 yearsless than one lifetime! Today, an estimated 71,000 Americans are 100 years old or older, a figure that estimates suggest will balloon more than three-fold to 241,000 by 2020. Clearly, medicines play a significant role, providing better treatment for a variety of serious medical problems. In the U.S. for example, medicines have reduced hospital admissions by one-half for 12 major diseases. And, of course, we know that staying out of the hospital lowers total healthcare costs considerably. Many people dont realize, however, that medicines still account for only about 10% of total healthcare costs in the U.S.about the same percentage as in the 1960s even as todays medicines do much more of the heavy lifting to keep people out of hospitals and other healthcare facilities. In 2004, the total bill for healthcare in the U.S. amounted to about $1.90 trillion, with medicines contributing about $180.5 billionless than 10% of the total. In short: medicines save lives and money.\nThe text in this booklet is a compiled, edited version of speeches given in late 2005 and early 2006 by Dr. Peter B. Corr, Senior Vice President, Science & Technology, Pfizer Inc, to executives from across the biomedical community.\nAdvances in biomedical research will yield effective treatments that will improve medical outcomes and lower medical costs.\nTheres an old Chinese proverba curse actuallythat applies to the world of healthcare today: May you live in interesting times! These certainly ARE interesting times. On one hand, in a tough business environment, all we hear about is the rising cost of healthcarea problem especially targeted to our industry. On the other hand, there are enormous opportunities to discover and develop innovative medicines that will help people lead healthier, more productive lives, while saving costs in the long run. One reason for this dichotomy is that few people understand our most fundamental assetthe true value of our science. And even fewer understand what we actually do as a biomedical community. So in addition to our scientific collaborations, we must come together as an industry as stewards of science to educate people on the value of medicines, the value of our science, and the benefit/risk model of our research and development process. We simply cannot develop mutually beneficial opportunities if we are under siege and the value of innovative therapeutics is not understood relative to other healthcare costs. Again, our track record tells us that the best ways to control costs will be to improve care, not to ration it. Kevin Murphy and Robert Topel, two economists at the University of Chicago, analyzed the data in the U.S. and came up with some interesting facts. They found that even modest reductions in death rates due to common killers can produce literally trillions of dollars in added economic value to society for affected individuals over their lifetime. This economic value is based on improvements in life expectancy, productivity and income, among other variables. Just a 10 percent reduction in deaths from cancers, for example, would pay off in more than $4 trillion in overall economic value to society during the lifespan of Americans living today. A 10 percent reduction in deaths from diabetes would generate more than $450 billion in similar economic gains. We also know that investments in R&D contribute to our economic competitiveness. According to a report from the National Innovation Initiative of the Council on Competitiveness, Innovation will be the single most important factor in determining Americas success through the 21st century. Thats why we strongly believe that healthcare regulators and governments should begin to focus on the overall cost burden of disease rather than the cost of the therapies that treat or, as importantly, prevent disease.\nIn the U.S., medicines have reduced hospital admissions by onehalf for 12 major diseases. And, we know that staying out of the hospital lowers total healthcare costs considerably.\nincentives, we can help increase compliance with improved drug delivery systems, so medicines are easier to take or can be taken less frequently.\nAll of these challenges, of course, must also be met within the broad context of patient safety. Simply put, the pursuit of innovative medicines AND safety must go hand in hand. Here, too, there are significant challenges, including distrust for our industry and a lack of understanding about benefit/risk. Overall, safety cannot be defined only by risk, but by the balance between benefit and riska balance, incidentally, that we consider for all the choices we make in life. The key question is this: Are we better off with a new medicine and its inherent risk than not having the medicine at all? To ensure the highest possible degree of safety in the development and use of innovative medicines, the biomedical industry needs regulatory standardization to help us deal with the increasing complexities of regulation, a regulatory infrastructure to support the avalanche of scientific and technological advances, and perhaps most important, better communication. As far as Pfizer is concerned, the safety issue is clear: were in the business of making products for health, so we have a moral imperative to protect the health of the public. Putting safety first is both common sense and good business. If patients and physicians dont think we work very hard to make medicines as safe as possible, they will go elsewhere. Dont forget, we are patients, too. We, and our families, rely on the same medicines as everyone else. So, there must be a balance between our concerns about safety and the need for biomedical innovation that will provide the important, new medicines that patients desperately need.\nDespite the best of intentions, the process of discovering, developing and introducing effective medicines for patients in need is an enormous challenge. A potential therapeutic must travel a long and exhaustive journey through research, pre-clinical development, increasingly expensive clinical trials and regulatory approval. After an average of 12 to 15 years and nearly a billion dollars, if all goes well, that new medicine may end up helping patients. Perhaps the biggest challenges are the high failure rates and attrition in R&D, which drive up costs. Much of the cost in discovery, in particular, comes from failures. While we always learn from failures, the resulting attrition accounts for 75% of the cost of R&D for new chemical entities2. And even when we succeed, only one in three medicines generates a return sufficient to cover its investment. This is why the so-called blockbuster drugs have been essential for our survivalthey must support the entire portfolio, including those medicines that are never able to recoup their R&D investment. In 2004, global R&D expenditures on ethical pharmaceuticals reached $53 billion. Now the figure is closer to $60 billion. Over the last 10 years, global R&D expenditures have grown by more than 70%.3 But despite these rising costs, there is some good newsthe total number of drug launches, including biologics and vaccines, has increased. Between 1995 and 2004, in fact, the total number of drugs launched was the highest in all of the 10-year intervals since 1945, though approvals for 2003, 2004 and particularly 2005 were disappointing (in 2005, the FDA approved only 18 new molecular entities). So higher rates of attrition, increased regulatory demands and a focus on unprecedented targets have led to higher costs and lower efficiency but not a decline in innovation. Todays scientists are as, if not more, innovative than ever before. Even if we must deal with the very real challenges of higher costs and increasing regulatory demands, our understanding of disease processes, coupled with new and vastly improved clinical technologies, will ultimately enhance the output of new therapies, hopefully in the near term.\nThree indispensable elements will help meet all these challenges: Increased R&D productivitydiscovering, testing and developing new therapies on a scale and with efficiencies that can meet the global burden of disease. Simply put, we must reduce attrition in the pipeline more compounds moving from discovery to development must survive the process and end up as significant, approved therapies that meet medical needs. Alliances and agreements with biotechnology firms, academia and public research organizationsto maximize the resources of the biomedical community and advance basic science. Public policies and incentives that advance innovationincluding regulatory efficiencies and regulatory harmonization across the globe. Critical intellectual property protections also are essential.\nIncreasing productivity is key. We must modify attrition rates and develop faster processes to determine the efficacy and safety of compounds earlier in the process, before we invest too much time and too many resources. If we can do this, we can increase the yield in discovery, improve the quality of our early development candidates and balance risk in our development portfolios. This is one area where partnerships can have a huge impact. Believe me, partnerships are not just a feel-good idea. They are essential for preserving and strengthening the delicate biomedical ecosystem that already exists, which has created unparalleled advances in science and medicine over the past several decades.\nOne way to meet these challenges head on is for all of us in the biomedical community to work together more effectively than ever before.\nWhile we must avoid even the appearance of conflicts of interest among academia, government and industry, we can strengthen these natural linksand we must. Clearly, the biomedical industry provides a significant share of funding and drives the R&D process, from discovery of new therapies to development and ultimately to market. Given the complexities, risk and expense, we can accomplish much more, with less cost and duplication of effort, when a variety of institutions and organizations bring their special strengths to bear.\nPfizers R&D budget will be about $7.8 billion in 2006. This is about 15% of what is spent worldwide by the private-sector pharmaceutical-biotechnology community. Therefore, 85% of the ideas churning in our community are external to Pfizer, so we must be outwardly focused. In this spirit of partnership, we also need support from other sectors to fuel innovation. This support includes: Successful healthcare systemsefficient delivery and distribution of services and efficient pricing and reimbursement for those services. An effective use of intellectual propertyincluding enforcement of IP rights so that the enormous investments in discovery and development will continue. Adequate and predictable regulatory requirementsincluding a safe, efficient and transparent medicine approval process, with postmarketing studies, global harmonization of regulations, and adjustments in regulatory requirements that reflect advances in science and technology. With a quantitative framework to inform the drug approval process, and with changes apparent at all stages, regulators and industry can align on benefits and risks, agree on the process itself, and agree on required data and plans for data collectionbefore New Drug Applications (NDAs) are submitted, during approval and in post-approval studies. Many of us in industry, working through committees of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA), have been collaborating in recent years with the FDA, NIH, AAMC and other bodies to begin addressing some of these issues in a pre-competitive manner, with a focus on improving industry productivity and efficiency.\nR&D efficiency and productivityto truly realize the promise of the biomedical endeavorfor the health and well being of everyone. Let me bring the importance of this discussion closer to home. Many of us will reach the age of 85, and about half of us will develop Alzheimers disease. Today, there are effective palliative therapies, but nothing stops the progression of the disease. So, left unchecked, we will require institutionalization and expensive round-the-clock supervision. But there is an alternative. We must invest in the science and technology that lead to the innovative therapeutics that will keep us mentally alert, independent, and out of such facilities. Its a huge challenge, but we have met similar challenges before, and we can do it again, together. I am convinced that advances in biomedical research will yield effective treatments that will improve medical outcomes and lower medical costs. If we are to realize these advances, however, the institutions that form the biomedical ecosystem, from academic centers, national laboratories and the biomedical industry to regulatory agencies, must be maintained and strengthenedand they must be encouraged to work collaboratively in the pursuit of scientific and biomedical innovation.

Lets work together and find the better way to advance science and improve health.\nFerjenel Biron Loses Supreme Court "Drug Case"\nSENATE HEARING, 110TH CONGRESS - SMALL MARKET DRUGS, BIG PRICE TAGS: ARE DRUG COMPANIES EXPLOITING PEOPLE WITH RARE DISEASE?

Supposedly 80% of the information we receive from a logo comes from the colors contained within it. That's because different colors evoke different feelings and emotions.\nThe information in this article was sourced from Towergate Insurance's "Colour in Branding" infographic, plus our own research.\nMcDonald's uses red because it's seen as an energizing and stands out easily. It's even thought the color stimulates hunger, which may be why a number of other fast food brands use the color.\nCarol Austin, VP of marketing for the brand told CNBC the logo is "meant to convey the fun and energy of the Baskin-Robbins brand."\nIt's also associated with reliability and loyalty, which is why law enforcement uniforms are blue.\nThe current logo was originally designed in 1997 and hasn't changed since.\nLike many other airlines, Lufthansa uses blue but it's one of the few to add yellow, which stands for happiness and optimism.\nThe current Nokia logo has been in place ever since it moved to telecommunications equipment — before that it was a paper mill company.\nChanel was the pioneer of the famous "little black dress" so it's only natural for the color black to be a core part of the brand's identity.\nThe use of black to signal elegance and red for passion falls in line with Vans' values of enabling people to do what they love.\nOrange is thought to exude extroversion and confidence, which Hermes has every right to as the world's second most valuable luxury brand.\nWhile much can be read into the four rings logo, the reasoning behind it is practical: Audi was one of four car companies that merged in 1932. The logo of the new company became all four logos in circles linked together. The individual brands' logos were eventually dropped, leaving only the four rings.\nIt also fits with the name of the brand, which translates to "car for the people."\nIt uses red, which is thought to raise the heart rate and physically motivate people, in Screwfix's case, to get to work on construction projects.\nThe oval shape of Pfizer's logo, which was created in 1987, is meant to be similar to that of a medical pill.\nThis edition of the logo was created in 2014, but the color orange has always been a part of the company's branding. The color is often associated with feelings of happiness and confidence.\nThe eagle in the USPS logo was always a part of the brand, but it's only since 1993 that the current "sonic eagle" has been on mail delivery trucks.\nWhen it comes to brand recognition through color it's hard to pass on the UK's postal service, Royal Mail.

Sometimes worthy people get what they deserve.\nAnd the Swiss Chorus Edelweiss did.On Aug. 1 the chorus, which has been churning out music in Salt Lake City for 54 years, was given the first Governor's Cultural Heritage Award for 1988.\nFormer president Lydia M. Trevithick and Max Zimmer, secretary-historian for the group, must be credited with much of the behind-the-scenes hustle that landed the recognition.\nIn 1985 Zimmer heard that some folk musicians in Price had been presented with the Governor's Folk Art Award, so he looked into things. He put together a promotional package that detailed Swiss chorus performances over the years before hundreds of audiences in most regions of the state, going into detail about singing, dancing and other aspects of the group.\nThe Swiss chorus, however, learned that the folk art award went only to individuals, and the music the group sang was not within the guidelines for folk music.\nStill, the application was not shelved. The Utah Arts Council, now aware of the chorus and its accomplishments, wanted to honor this fine state treasure, so the Cultural Heritage Award was established and the Swiss Chorus Edelweiss was given the first one.\nThe Swiss, of chorus, have a worldwide reputation for singing, dancing and yodeling. The oldest choral groups in Europe were established in Switzerland some 200 years ago, and since that time every town and hamlet in the country has spawned a singing society or a chorus.\nThere's an old adage that says, "Whenever three Swiss get together, they sing."\nIn the early years of Utah's Swiss chorus, the group had 70 singers and yodelers, 12 dancers and 10 musicians. They would sing up to 30 and 40 concerts a year.\nToday the numbers are fewer on both counts, but the enthusiasm hasn't changed a whit.\nFor more information about the chorus and the award call the Utah Arts Council at 533-5895. - By Jerry Johnston, with Max Zimmer.

Hey everyone. Today’s article is a bittersweet one as I am saying goodbye to the Master of Magics team – it has been a pleasure to write for Master of Magics for the past 4 months and to be able to meet some awesome people along the way. I would like to thank the entire Master of Magics team for being so welcoming and helpful and to Abbie for allowing me the chance to write here.\nAs of today I will be joining Team Axion Now and will be representing the Yellow and Purple that is often seen around not only UK events but at European GPs (Magic Fests) as well.\nI thought I should make my last article here a bit different to my previous ones and go over how to interpret week one results in a brand new format.\nRavnica Allegiance has just come out and there is already so much data to absorb, between the Star City Games event in Indianapolis, the Magic Online Mythic Championship Qualifier and the handful of Magic Online decklist dumps, there is a tonne of information to try and go over as people scramble to figure out what the best strategies will be going forward. I for one am a big fan of trawling through all this information like its an early birthday present. There are, however, a few important things to keep in mind as you peruse this cursory look at the new format.\nDon’t assume that the winning decklists will be the best decklists going forward.\nIn the case of Ravnica Allegiance standard, Hydroid Krasis is everywhere. The giant Jellyfish Hydra Beast has been the breakout card from week one of standard and it is easy to see why. The card has a good stat line, being a 2/2 Flying Trample for 4 is not a bad rate to start with – but when you factor in the cast ability – allowing you to draw cards and gain life – it really accelerates the card’s power level, especially when cast for upwards of six mana.\nI think that the reason that the Flying Jellyfish has proven to be so dominant in week one, winning the SCG Open and the Magic Online MCQ, is that it slots into some already powerful and well-defined archetypes. The decks that won the Open and the MCQ were both Sultai Midrange decks with the Open list looking the most familiar. Anthony Devarti decided to turn up to the event with the shell of the dominant Golgari Midrange deck from pre-Ravnica Allegiance and add in a trio of the most powerful new mythics alongside an improved mana base and some sideboard counterspells.\nOne of the main reasons that the Sultai decks did well is that Golgari has already proven itself to be a strong choice for any tournament, and the addition of Hydroid Krasis doesn’t change the deck too much, meaning that it will continue to grind people out in a long game with Vivien Reid and Find//Finality while still being able to fight aggressive decks with Wildgrowth Walker and various explore cards.\nThe Magic Online decklist strays away from this a bit more by including some other new cards such as Growth-Chamber Guardian, Incubation Druid, and Zegana, Utopian Speaker, but it still sits on the same principles as above – it can still grind you out with the combination of Vivien Reid and Find//Finality while having an improved late game with the flexibility of the Krasis.\nThe main takeaway from this is that you have to consider that cards will slot into pre-existing archetypes and perform very well in week one but might not be the best going forward.\nDon’t forget about the underperformers.\nWhat happened to Mono Red? What happened to Nexus of Fate?\nAlthough these decks didn’t perform on week one, you shouldn’t be too quick to ignore these decks. These 2 decks were the ones gaining the most popularity leading into the weekend and yet didn’t put up the numbers to support the hype, so what went wrong? With these decks being target number 1 and 2 going into these tournaments, people would build their decks with that in mind meaning that there would be extra disruption spells and extra lifegain spells in almost every deck that you would play against.\nThe 2 main winning decklists (Open and MCQ) contained a combined 7 Duress and a large number of Moment of Craving and Cry of the Carnarium, some of the best cards available against these particular strategies.\nNow I’m not saying that Mono Red or Nexus of Fate will be the best in the format going forward – nobody knows how the format will develop – but I would certainly keep these decks on your radar for now. Both are powerful enough that either deck could pop up one weekend and take down an event.\nDon’t be scared to innovate.\nYou might be looking at the list of decks that did well at the week one events, hoping to see the deck that you have been working on and be able to compare decklists to someone that has a similar list. You keep looking and sadness washes over you when you get to the bottom of the list and your deck is nowhere to be seen.\nThis does not mean that your deck is never going to be good enough and that you should put it aside for whatever won the SCG Open. Week one is for the old guard to rule and the newbies to challenge for the throne. Continue to innovate and work on your decklist. Quite a lot of the good decks in previous standard formats have come out of the woodwork a few weeks into the format.\nWith all of that said, the week one decklists do warp how the format develops and I suspect that we will continue to see the dominance of Hydroid Krasis for at least a few weeks before decklists become more refined.\nWell that’s it for my time at Master of Magics. I would like to thank everyone for reading my content for the past 4 months. If you ever see me at a Grand Prix/Magic Fest, feel free to say hello! I’m always down to talk Magic.\nFollow me on Twitter over at @MattBrown_MTG.\nThank you for reading my content and good luck at your next event!
