When you use tables in your web, is it better to set the size using pixels or percentage?\nOoooops! Sorry wrong forum. See I messed up already!\nIs it better to set the size using pixels or percentage?\nI hate it when websites are incompatible with my stupidly high screen resolution because they are using percentages which screws up a pixel-dependent layout.\nOh! thank you. I had them in pixels but just wanted to be sure. |

Georgetown, Kentucky (August 3, 2018) — The heat is on, but it's not all from the summer sun. The next generation 2019 Lexus ES 350 is roaring off the production line in Georgetown, Kentucky, and drivers will soon have a chance to burn up the streets in this game-changing vehicle.\n"We've implemented the all-new Lexus Global Architecture platform," said Susan Elkington, president, Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky, Inc., (TMMK). "The 2019 ES starts with a newly developed, more rigid chassis and delivers class-leading handling and power you can feel and hear."\nCombined with a tenacious commitment to craftsmanship – the foundation of Lexus manufacturing – the new ES also ups the ante on comfort and luxury. "We strive to capture the Lexus mindset with every vehicle we build. We craft in quality, innovation, and delight for all the senses, for every customer."\nLexus team members at the company's U.S. facility spent more than 150,000 hours training to build the ES model that delivers a fundamentally higher level of performance than its predecessors. That includes sensory training that teaches assemblers, for instance, to feel for an abnormality as minute as a thread of hair.\n"After extensive sensory training, our team members rely on sight, sound and touch to know that the craftsmanship of the car is of the highest standard," said Mike Bridge, Lexus assistant general manager. "A machine can't make those judgments, and that's why we take so much time to train before a new model goes into production."\nBridge said an example of this sensory training can be seen in body weld, where team members are taught to feel gap differences measured in fractions as little as 0.3 millimeters. "This is equal to the thickness of three sheets of paper and can be felt even with gloves on," he said.\nIn 2016, after just one year of production, the Lexus line received the Platinum award – a tie with Toyota's Kyushu 2 plant in Japan – in the J.D. Power & Associates' Initial Quality Study, representing the highest-performing assembly plant in the world for initial quality. The Kentucky Lexus plant has been among the highest J.D. Power rankings every year since.\n"Because of the team we have here in Georgetown, and all that has been accomplished in just three years since initially launching Lexus," said Lentz, "we're confident our Lexus customers will Experience Amazing each time they get behind the wheel of a Kentucky-assembled ES." |
interesting and well written read.\n(1) Quality. I can see the need for cutting corners here and there to hold down costs, bu there is a point of excessive short-cutting. The 1975 cartoons are barely pasted together. The Xerography process used to bypass the old Inking Department makes a poor-looking cartoon, because it is a direct Xeroxing onto cels of the rough, ragged, pre-liminary animation sketches, with minimal cleanup. The clean, crisp line of an ink pen directly on the cel is missing, and instead we have fuzzy characters. An MGM "Tom & Jerry" animation still is a pleasure to look at; an H-B still hurts the eyes. Even Disney's assay in Xerography, "101 Dalmations", suffers because of the scraggly lines.\n(2) Artwork. Even though in 1975 most of the original MGM animators worked with H-B on the new "Tom & Jerry" series, the artwork from a purely technical standpoint is lousy. The original "Tom & Jerry" animators (Ed Barge, Irv Spence, Ray Patterson and Kenneth Muse) worked in supervisory positions only -- they didn't draw a single frame. A few MGM people like Lewis Marshall, who worked on the "Barney Bear" and "Droopy" cartoons (and some of the unclassifiable Heck Allen and Tex Avery comedies), did animate the '75 series, but in as poor as style as the one employed in the CinemaScope efforts of the middle 1950s. Other than Dave Tendlar, one of the original animators for Max Fleischer's "Popeye" and "Betty Boop" cartoons in the 1930s, the majority of the artists were strictly TV people, born and bred in the tradition of cheap limited animation so popular after the mid 1960s.\nTom in the 1975 series is generally horridly drawn. His character design seems drawn much more from the Chuck Jones series of "Tom & Jerry" in the 1960s (in which Tom and Jerry look more and more like typical Warner Bros. creations) than from the "classic" form of the mid 1940s at MGM. Every once in a while Tom looks like his old self (minus the white patch between his eyes -- a concession made to time and cost in the early '50s *at MGM*, believe it or not); one can only assume that an experienced cinema animator like Dave Tendlar or Grant Simmons did the work, or else someone who could turn out the drawings in the necessary production-line atmosphere and do it with quality. It would seem that the majority of the '75 series animators had no concept of what Tom should look like. Sometimes one wonders if it really is a "Tom & Jerry" cartoon because *that* blue cat bears very little resemblance to the one everyone is used to seeing. Jerry, however, is drawn fairly well, albeit with the meaningless addition of a red bow tie.\nOne disturbing thing about the new series is the scalar relationship between the characters. Tom seems to have shrunk, and Jerry enlarged. No longer does Tom occupy the majority of the screen; he shares space with minor characters (introduced by various story requirements) who are as large as the "old" MGM Tom. The size differential tends to de-emphasize Tom and Jerry and concentrate on the "guest stars". A smaller Tom may be responsible for the poor renderings of him by the animators.\nOne problem with the Xerography cel-process is that the separation between some colors in the Painting (Opaquing) procedure (as in Tom's basic blue body and the white paws and underbelly) is a black line, not a "lineless" border as in the original MGM cartoons. Under the old system, such lines were not inked in black but with a colored ink appropriate to the colors being demarcated. But since Xerography prints the entire animation drawing directly on the cell, the color separation lines get printed, too. As a result, the 1975 Tom has white paws marked off from blue arms by an ugly black squiggle, which fails to duplicate the beautiful separation of the older, more expensive system.\n(3) Animation. Needless to say, this is one of the weakest points of the 1975 series. Television production techniques do not permit the making of 30 shorts in full animation per year. Limited animation and its inherent reliance on dialogue instead of motion for comedy destroy the '75 "Tom & Jerry"s. Now and then a good sequence appears, but the majority are awful in their blandness.\nSquash-stretch cartooning requires 12 frame/second full animation; it simply can't be done with 3 or 4. Limited animation can be used to great advantage *IF* it does not attempt what it cannot do -- reproduce realistic motion. H-B could have stuck to limited animation for the most part and done it well -- as in "The Flintstones" or "Johhny Quest" -- and switched to full animation for action sequences when needed. But H-B attempted some fancy action without enough drawings per second to pull it off, and the pastework shows. The 1975 Tom walks like a mechanical monster, his motions awkward and unconvincing, with poor extremes and insufficient in-betweens. Squash-stretch actions like extreme distortions (or "takes") for surprise, fear, etc. are poorly done and incongruous in the limited animation format.\nOddly enough, the "guest stars" of the TV series are better-animated and better-drawn than either Tom or Jerry! Perhaps since these characters never had a full animation treatment they survive the limited animation, while Tom and Jerry suffer from inaction. The Bulldog, a corruption of the original MGM Spike, often steals the show (though his talky verbal asides are maddeningly unfunny). All in all, comparing the superb animation of H-B's 1945 efforts with those of 1975, there is really no comparison: MGM's Tom and Jerry are *alive*, while their recent reincarnations are dead, empty shells.\nThe new "Tom & Jerry"s are indeed talkies; of course neither Tom nor Jerry speaks (at least H-B got *that* right), but the secondary "guest stars" monopolize the show and blabber incessantly. Instead of letting action speak. the new cartoons have constant throwaway chatter which announces a character's every move. If they didn't, however, no one would understand the situation, because the motion picture part is too sketchy to make it clear! The sound track should *complement* the visuals, not make up for them. This is unfortunately the case in the 1975 series.\nAs cartoon plots, the new stories fail. Invariably, I can point to an earlier cartoon from either MGM or Warner Bros. in which a particular gag or even entire story situation was handled 100% better, and was more fun to watch. Original plots are scarce, but new treatment is a *must*. Most "good" animated cartoon plots, however, are considered nowadays to be bad influences on young, "impressionable" minds. That's a big word today, "impressionable". So to keep the PTA off their backs, the studios turn to insipid, wordy, "meaningful", and above all *BORING* stories, which are totally devoid of violence and savagery, to be sure, but are also devoid of any artistic value at all. Animation is an art, too. In trying to offend no one they offend everybody. |
Huna is the word used by Max Freedom Long in 1936 to describe in his words the secret science behind the miracles that ancient Hawaiian kahuna experts performed on people. Huna organizations exist all over the world and are non-profit organizations. They are organizations that teach, research and practice the studies of Max Freedom Long. There is an annual World Huna conference held although there is no specific information on the Huna members available to the public.\nThe concept of Huna believes in the concept of three selves. These selves are the low self, the middle self and the higher self. They are also known as subconscious, conscious and super conscious states of being. These words in Hawaiian are unihipili, uhane and aumakua. The main principles of huna consist of seven main things: the world is what you think it is, there are not any limits, energy flows where people's attention goes, now is the moment of power, to love is to be happy with something or someone, all power comes from inside and truth is measured by effectiveness.\nLong believed that the kahuna were not only found in Hawaii and were found in other civilizations such as in ancient Egypt, in India and certain cultures of Christ and Buddha accepted similar types of principles.\nThere lies some controversy in using a Hawaiian word to describe worldly principles used in different countries. The native Hawaiians find that their culture did not condone such significance and therefore criticise the use of the word. It is hard to pinpoint traditional views in Hawaii, as it has been a place with so many influences from different cultures. Some Hawaiians believe in huna traditions and some do not.\nLong based his use of the word huna from a translation of English from a dictionary made in 1865 by a missionary when it was illegal to practice huna methods. Although it was used by Long, none of the Hawaiian sources used this term for the method he used for his approach to huna. In fact some of the Hawaiian terms used mean nothing of the three selves and mean something completely different.\nIn Hawaiian, kahuna refers to an educated or learned person. Kahunas can be experts in any field, not necessarily the medical field. They can be experts in canoe building, agriculture, temple building as well as being experts in diagnosing illnesses and herbal medicine. |

He was born the son of a North Melbourne player and from the age of 12 he was a member of the GWS academy.\nBut now a proud Demon, first-year player Charlie Spargo is forging his own path.\nAfter arriving at the club with an injured shoulder and getting suspended in his first VFL game for the club, it’s fair to say Spargo’s Melbourne career didn’t get off to the best start.\nBut after overcoming an extremely limited pre-season, and with some stern guidance from coach Simon Goodwin, the tenacious teenager from Albury is preparing for his second consecutive blockbuster final at the MCG.\nCharlie Spargo. tackles Sam Menegola in last week's elimination final at the MCG.\nAlthough pre-season for Melbourne players started in late November, it wasn’t until late February that Spargo was able to train fully after recovering from shoulder surgery that ended his under-18 campaign.\n“It was pretty annoying. Just the competitive streak in me wanted me to be able to get out there and show what I had,” Spargo told Fairfax Media.\nBut finally, after months of rehabilitation and a handful of practice matches, Spargo was handed his first competitive hit-out in the VFL in early April.\n“It was stupid, I swung my hand and got some bloke in the head. I was very remorseful,” Spargo said.\nThat bloke was Coburg’s Nick Mellington and Spargo was offered two matches for the strike, with the option of accepting one match with a guilty plea.\n“I was pretty down in the dumps,” said Spargo, who then sat down with Goodwin.\n“We know that’s not what you do and not what you’re about,” Spargo said were Goodwin’s words to him.\nIt was a tough start to his AFL career, but from that moment on, it’s been smooth sailing for Spargo.\nHe came back into the VFL and knocked the door down with his form, eventually being picked for his senior debut in the round-six clash with Essendon.\nAs a 173-centimetre, 71-kilogram forward, Spargo had a combined 33 disposals and kicked three goals in his first two games.\nHe’s become an important weapon in Melbourne’s forward-pressure artillery and Friday night’s semi -final against Hawthorn will be his 17th game of the year.\nAnd while Spargo’s final for the Demons will be on Friday night, he may well have been playing alongside Toby Greene for GWS on Saturday, had the AFL not stripped the Giants of part of their academy zone.\nIn March last year, Spargo was less than a week away from playing the GWS academy team when his parents received a phone call from the AFL.\nSpargo’s home town Albury was part of the area the league had decided to strip from the Giants, much to the club's anger.\nSpargo’s parents, Paul – who played 90 games for North Melbourne and the Brisbane Bears – and Kate, were as shocked as Charlie.\n“I wasn’t really sure what was going to happen,'' Spargo said. ''I thought I was going to go to the Giants. I was settled with that, I’d thought about it a fair bit.\nPaul and Kate will make their second 320-kilometre trip down the Hume Highway to the MCG inside two weeks, and Charlie chuckles at the fact that he’s even managed to turn his Dad into a Demons’ fan.\nSpargo is enjoying the simplicity of his football at the moment.\nSpargo added: “I’m not worried about possession numbers because if you look around at a lot of the good small forwards, they get low possessions, maybe three or four tackles, and if you get one or two goals, then you’re lucky. |
Jenna Rice Rahaim received her PhD in Anthropology from Stanford University. Her research focuses on migration and religious, economic, and ethical practice in the Middle East. Her dissertation, Imagining Debt, Practicing Obligation: Family, Charity, and Humanitarianism in Saida, Lebanon examines changing sensibilities towards charitable giving among Sunni Muslims in the context of the influx of Syrian refugees across the border.\nShe has conducted extended ethnographic fieldwork in the city of Saida among wealthy patrons, anonymous donors, groups of female volunteers, NGO workers, religious leaders, and families that have redrawn their boundaries to create cohesive mutual aid associations. Broadly speaking, her work examines the ways in which people come to feel obligated to help refugee and migrant communities in Lebanon – whether due to piety, politics, kinship, or compassion. Her work also shows how charitable giving becomes a space for negotiating the city’s relationship to secularism, sectarianism, religion, race, and political alliances. This research becomes especially important during a time of growing inequality, a shrinking welfare state, and the influx of more than one million Syrian refugees into Lebanon. |
Truth be told, it would take some skill to travel the length and breadth of the modern day city without your smart device like your smartphone or tablet PC picking up on some open WiFi networks to connect to, many of which are free. As extensively available as free internet is being made however, the reality is there will definitely be some periods of time when you can’t find a connection, during which times you have to effectively pay for the internet you use, i.e. use your data bundles as offered by your mobile network carrier.\nFor those of us who live in more of the suburban areas it’s a reality we face a whole lot more than the average city slicker, as the free WiFi-offering coffee shops disappear and give way to residential properties. It is at this time when you realise that smart devices are actually quite data hungry and they can really drain your data very quickly, which means they can drain your budget just as quickly.\nThe same applies for devices such as laptops – however by applying just a bit of acquired tech savvy you can quite easily plug the money drain that’s effectively connected to your smart devices.\nNobody ever has any right to dispute the importance of running updates on the apps you have installed on your smart device, as well as updates on the firmware, which admittedly aren’t as frequently required as those of a third-party application. So it’s important to run regular updates and keep your apps up to date, mostly because of security issues that are patched up with each new update released by the developers.\nIn order to plug the drain however, switch of automatic updates and endeavour to update your device manually, which should subsequently have you updating it when you’re connected to some of the free Wi-Fi available at a coffee shop or anywhere else, for example. You might have to make an effort to remember to search for updates, but that’s something you could perhaps set a reminder for. Make it a habit to set your device to search for updates when you’re connected to free internet.\nGenerally developers will try and accommodate as many devices, makes and models as they possibly can with the apps they release, but it’s very possible that some devices could “fall through the cracks.” You may get tempted to use all manner of different tricks to effectively force the app to be compatible with your device, but that’s not recommended. Instead of using third-party utilities such as rooting tools and the likes, head straight to the developers and enquire with them directly about your device’s compatibility. If you want to enjoy some online casino games via a William Hill sports betting or bingo app for example, this page will show the apps available for your device (Android or iPhone), with the important thing to take away from this recommendation being that you are liaising directly with the developer, which means no nasty surprises by way of third-party pop-up ads and other data-hungry processes which tend to form an inherent part of third-party “solutions” to a “problem” that is already addressed by the original developer. |
This is the lesson where we started playing with the idea of having the money strangle me, and moving onto other characters that were overcome by money in different ways. We also started discussing the techno side of the project. We decided to use blackouts and a bit of stop motion, showing us going between stills to show my death. We also started discussing the types of backing tracks we would have and I told the group members about my idea for having a layering of voices speaking about the different topics as we wouldn’t speak during the actual performance. We also discussed projecting onto the screen or us different images pertaining to the issue.\nKate and Andrea then worked on movements that transitioned from fear of the power of Andrea and the sheet, into a sort of curiosity and control. This also separates Andrea, and through the use of the sheet kind of can make her seem more part of the sheet as she embodies power and money. They continued and played with the idea of Kate taking the sheet from all of us like I had in the first practice.\nOf course Kate was doing this all while under the control of Andrea which upon reflection provokes some interesting thought processes. Are we ever really in control of our desires? We then wanted something striking to show Kate finally taking it from all of us, and given the silence we already had, Andrea had the idea of a clap which is simultaneous with Kate taking the sheet.\nThat lesson we didn’t have as much time as we had in other practices and mostly worked on an idea for how I would grow after my “death by sheet”. I had the idea that we could have me have breaths almost mimicking the heartbeat in the beginning, eventually coming out of the way I was buried, but instead getting put in “shackles” by the sheet.\nWe spent most of the lesson playing with a movement where Kate and Bailee would move in a circle around me, while holding the sheet, kind of like the hands of a clock. I would be dragged by the sheet in a circle.\nOnce again it was mostly about the aesthetic and the movement, but we figured it could be representative for the passage of time and how money or riches or greed had so much power over me that it controlled me for several cycles.\nThat lesson we played around a little more with the idea of walking on the sheet, and eventually decided to use the idea of actually using the the sheet as a screen and we played with idea of having shadows behind it.\nWe thought it had a good aesthetic. It’s very interesting but we didn’t really think of a strict meaning for it. However we did keep using the idea of columbian hypnosis, and we thought maybe it could somehow have some sort of meaning to do with how I’m drawn by money etc… However, eventually I get buried by money or riches, showing how it overcame me.\nI get buried by the sheet, and Andrea controls the burying of me in said sheet. We then had an idea about how we could start off the performance keeping the idea of the sheet on the ground, and instead making movements like a heart beating behind it. Mostly we’ve been working on visuals and not so much meaning.\nWe also worked on the idea of having us all spread out into a line, once again more for aesthetics than much of a message. However, one time when we practiced the transition from heart into line, Kate accidentally ended up a bit farther from everyone else, and we decided to use that and separate me from the rest of us in a way of expressing how I’m different and I discover everything else first and exploit it and get overcome by it.\nThe first real practice of our CP (including a ten minute session at the end of the previous lesson where we brainstormed) was very productive. We walked in with a lot of ideas. We all knew we wanted to do something abstract, and we kind of wanted to play with lights and possibly an unconventional stage. For stimulus, Kate brought a poem, Andrea brought the idea of a diamond, and I brought the phrase “the grass is always greener on the other side”, from that we all came to the idea of inequality, or the idea of our relationship with stuff other people don’t have. I really wanted to play with the idea of using light as a barrier, so we got spotlight and a block. I was in the spotlight with the block, and we tried to do some stuff with the idea of me having the light and the block. We played with sticks a bit to show this idea, but ultimately abandoned it. I suggested the use of a sheet as it’s more flexible and we can do a lot more things with it. We then played with the idea of having a diagonal line across the stage; me in the spotlight downstage right, with the other end upstage left. We played with the idea of them having the sheet and me taking it or wanting it and exploring it. Then Bailee had the idea of laying the sheet on the ground, kind of like a runway. We then played with the idea of all of us coming from nothing, and then going to discover it. But, the other girls couldn’t really touch it, while I walked on it. Then when I got to the middle I would try to touch it and Bailee would grab me, we’d freeze, and then I’d gather up the entire sheet and go back to the spotlight. Then they would keep trying to get it from me, eventually succeeding by getting Andrea to use Columbian hypnosis on me so they could steal it. The idea was that it would show how some people steal from the masses and how that results in inequality. |
Sonoma County Emergency Services will be speaking about how to make a plan for your family and what to put in a “go bag."\nAdults and babies in arms only please. Please RSVP on Wild Apricot for each member of your party so we can keep an accurate head count. Event is open to the public so feel free to invite your friends!\nLet's start this year off with moving our bodies for MNO. Come and join us Friday January 25th @6:30pm for MNO Club Pilates East! We will take the 50min class and then enjoy some drinks and snacks after. There are only 12 spots available so be sure to sign up soon. The class cost is $10, normally drop-ins are $29 and you must wear pilates socks. Socks are available for purchase at Club Pilates for $12-18. They are also available on Amazon, maybe we can buy in bulk together? Reply to this post if you're interested in socks or if you have any questions about this event. There will be NO REFUNDS for this event.\nPMC is partnering up with Together We Rise to fundraise Sweet Cases for children in Foster Care. Each sponsored case is $25 and is filled with essentials like a teddy bear, blanket, hygiene kit, etc. Once our fundraiser is complete, PMC members will get together to decorate and pack the cases before they go to a local agency; this can be anything from CPS offices to police who show up on scene.\nFeel free to share with friends and family as every dollar counts. Thanks for your support!!\nThis easy, fun, free printable is a great way to mark the end of the year!\nDidn’t get quite enough Christmas cookies? Need a New Year’s cookie? Planning for next year already? Or just a year round cookie fiend (like me!)? Here’s a yummy recipe from a fellow PMC member. Can’t wait to try these!\nBake at 350 – 15 min. or more for large cookies.\nTakes a strong arm to mix, patience, and about 3 hrs. to bake, or can be kept in refrigerator. Bake as want to.\nIt’s my husband’s late grandmother’s recipe. I add my favorite kinds of M&M’s (peanut butter, caramel, etc.). It’s packed with yumminess. I half each ingredient because the original recipe makes an obscene amount of cookie dough.\nI think perfect happiness is when you realize you have a full tummy, a warm bed, clothes on your back and most importantly your family and friends. Oh, and a good balance in your bank account! But for me, I would say when my son cuddles with me and gives me the biggest hugs and kisses. I don’t get too many because he is a busy-body and won’t sit still, so when he is feeling cuddly, I stop and enjoy the moment.\nI would say I am scared of spiders, but honestly if I have to kill a spider because my husband isn’t home then I would. I hate scary movies with a passion. During Halloween they always have scary commercials of what’s in theaters and I always change the channel because I can’t stand it.\nI admire my mom the most, I love my dad too, but my mom is our rock. They both moved to the States when they were 18 years old because I was on the way. While my mom was pregnant, she worked two jobs and never complained about how she never got to finish college. She is truly selfless and puts her children before herself.\nI would say motherhood. There are ups and downs and even though the downs are hard, and can make me crazy, I cherish these moments.\nI’m not a great liar. I blush and can’t keep a story straight!\nMy greatest regret would be not traveling enough. When I graduated from high school all my friends were saving up to go to Europe or Central America and they took a year off from college. I thought that was insane! I felt like I needed to go straight to college and get my degree and start working and buy a house etc. I wish I had that year off between high school and college to “find” myself as my friends called it. Oh and don’t take 17 college units or else you’ll get burnt out!\nI would say my greatest achievement would be my dental hygiene degree. I was that kid that enjoyed going to the dentist maybe it was because I never had a cavity. Going to the dentist was not scary for me and I always looked forward to my cleanings.\nThe happiest time in my life was when I lived in Georgia. It was a love-hate relationship since I wasn’t a fan of the humidity, but I was still in college and just got accepted to the dental hygiene program and that’s where I met some amazing friends. I still talk and visit them.\nI don’t think I would change my family, even the crazy people, I still love them. I would change my in-laws though! I am just kidding, I think we all feel that way sometimes.\nThis question is a hard one. I think something I wish I could change would be how sensitive I am. I wish I could speak my mind. For example, my husband is the most up-front, no sugar coating outspoken person, but I am the opposite. If someone does something I don’t like and it surprises me I keep to myself until I’m home and can think of all the stuff I wish I could have said.\nMy most treasured possessions are my grandpa’s things. He passed away last year after the holidays and he always wore Hawaiian shirts that we used to hate seeing him wear because they weren’t the prettiest pattern, but I kept a few and I want to make pillowcases so I can hug him anytime I miss him!\nSonoma County is my hometown. I was born and raised here and after living in Utah and Georgia, I am exactly where I want to live. Petaluma! It’s the best community and everyone is there for each other. Plus my elderly neighbors are the best!!\nHonesty, I don’t care to have a ton of friends because I rather have true honest friends. I have found some great Petaluma mom friends and I am so excited for my son to grow up with their kids.\nFireman and police officers, especially during the fires we have had. They are courageous men and women who put others first.\nThank you so much for your nomination as Board Member of the month! I was excited to take on the role of Field Trips coordinator for 2018-2019 in order to create and lead fun events that bring our families together in the community! It is so rewarding seeing all of the kids eyes light up when they’re enjoying a field trip! From swimming, to apple-picking, to the Wildlife Rescue field trip, the last few months have been memorable and I look forward to meeting all of you in the future at one of our exciting trips!\nWhat was it like for you to transition into motherhood?\nWe had our first child 7 years after we got married. Initially, I don’t think we quite latched onto the reality that parenthood should or would slow us down -just a bit - from our regular busy lives! One of the wildest things that my husband and I did when we realized that we were going to have our first child (and have time off of work) was buy a fixer-upper house. We already had experience doing tons of home remodeling, but for some odd reason we were thinking that we would need something OTHER THAN THE NEW BABY to occupy our time. Our first child, Riley, spent his first several months helping us do a complete renovation on a 1918 Bungalow – my husband did most of the carpentry and heavy lifting and I’ve always loved doing the design, paint, and tile work. Riley spent many hours in his baby lounger chair with me while I was doing tilework in the bathroom and kitchen of the home. Jokingly, Riley took far too many lunch breaks - We’d get an hour or two of work done and then he’d be ready for a 30-minute milk break, lol! We restored the house with original style and detail - the house turned out amazing, like many of our prior projects. We’ve continued to involve the kids in renovations, with the belief that one of the most important things that you can teach your children is the value and reward of hard work!\nDid life change when you had your second and third child?\ncase at all when the 2 boys (20 months apart) were both in diapers and 100% dependent on mom and dad at such close ages. Having almost 3.5 years between the second and third child was well worth the wait!\nWhat is an odd fact that people don’t know about you?\nWhile I was going to college at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, I also worked almost full-time at a few different auto shops over my 5 years there. I went to the local Junior college simultaneously to expand my automotive repair skills. My husband and I met while working together at one of the auto shops. I still have my 2 hobby Volkswagen bugs (1958 vintage & 1965 baja bug) that I enjoy working on and cruising around town!\nWhat project or challenge are you currently undertaking?\nOh my goodness – MOVING - just when I said we wouldn’t be moving again for a while - we have moved twice in the past 9 months (with 3 children). The good news is - we are fairly certain that as of this last move in November, we are in our ‘forever home.’ [But for anyone who knows us well and the fact that we’ve lived in 8 homes over the past decade, you might question this statement] We just bought our dream home on nearly 4 acres. When this dream property came up for sale on the street that we had long called our “dream street”, we had not quite finished remodeling a 5 bedroom/3 bath, 1897 Victorian on 7th Street in downtown Petaluma. We had done a complete gut of the Victorian and had only been living in it since March of 2018, moving in when Charlotte was just 32 days old. We thought we would settle in the Victorian for a bit, but then THE dream property - on THE dream street - WITH acreage came up. We figured we would kick ourselves forever if we didn’t figure out how to make it work – the rest is history! We’ve only been living in the home just over a month, but we’ve already added a herd of alpacas, sheep, and goats to our existing flock of 14 chickens & 2 dogs!\nOutside of raising 3 children, what keeps you busy?\nWith personal experience in real estate rehab and professional work experience in construction and engineering, I’ve been actively building my real estate business since 2006. My husband and I have built a property management company which we have been running for 12+ years now. I am also a licensed Broker (REALTOR ®), working under Keller Williams Realty. I truly enjoy real estate because I’m able to help other families and friends find their dream homes, while providing a lot of strategic assistance based on my background. I have extensive hands-on experience which allows me to help clients at a whole different level. I can share my experiences in addition to putting clients in contact with an amazing support team of contractors, inspectors, lenders, legal advisors, accountants, and other professionals that I have built relationships with over the years. I was recently invited by my brokerage to serve on the Keller Williams Agent Leadership Council, an amazing opportunity which I am proud of because it is offered to only a few of the top-performing agents in the brokerage. I also enjoy teaching others… and I have an odd hobby of story-telling and public speaking. To combine my interests, I am working on setting up a 2019 seminar series about home buying strategy as well as investing (let me know if have any interest I can keep you informed – [email protected]). I have built my real estate business on the idea of giving back, both to my clients and community charities, which makes me feel great about what I do!\n'Tis the season to curl up with your kiddos and a great book! Take a break from the chilly outdoors and the hustle and bustle of holiday festivities with some new and some classic reads. Comment with your own family favorites! |

At the corner of Cooper Street and Madison Avenue, an aging French-inspired hotel sat vacant for the better part of a decade. With the advent of several other popular arts venues in the area, this iconic corner in the popular Midtown District was ripe for a rebirth. Enter Ballet Memphis.\nDrawing dancers from surrounding counties and states, the regional ballet company was eager for a more central location. The travel difficulties incurred by dancers and their families as well as the lack of a theatre and stage suitable for performances at their Germantown location began to take a toll.\nNow serving as the home for Ballet Memphis, the new facility features prominent structural elements, including a steel art wall that is reminiscent of the tulle in ballet costumes. Due to the location of the wall, extensive coordination with the City of Memphis was required as it encroached on the existing right-of-way.\nThe placement of the structure on the site and the design of the parking lot were imperative for several reasons. The existing site had an old retaining wall that had to be rebuilt to support the earthwork required to build the new structure. Maintaining a balance between adequate parking and creating a flow that allowed for convenient pick-up and drop-off for students attending classes were important design considerations in this urban location. Green infrastructure was incorporated throughout the project. Permeable concrete was used for the parking surfaces and raingardens and bioswales were also used in order to achieve a detention waiver from the City.\nSSR was responsible for civil and structural engineering on the project. Ballet Memphis opened to patrons in August of 2017. Photos are courtesy of Archimania. |

How many of you have thought about sharing your personal journey, but you weren’t sure where to start? There are a growing number of virtual communities giving voice to so many living with chronic illness or disabilities.\n“Yoocan is the the world’s #1 empowerment site for people with disabilities and their families to share their personal story in a safe community, search for activities and organizations, meet new friends and get feedback from people who truly care. Yoocan is a free community with access to more than 1 million people from over 100 countries around the world, and growing every day.\nIn July 2008, my nephew Erez was born with a rare disease and complex cognitive and physical disabilities. This was the beginning of an emotionally challenging journey for our family. It brought us together in many ways, but it was hard as we needed to adjust to a new way of living. Like Erez, there are over 1 billion people in the world living with some kind of cognitive or physical disability, striving to live a better, inclusive life, and fulfill their dreams.\nYOOCAN reached out to ask if I’d be interested in sharing my story via their platform. (DUH! I LOVE SHARING MY STORY!) I jumped at the opportunity to reached a wider audience in hopes of inspiring others.\nOnce I signed up (It’s totally FREE!), I became typing my story and uploading photos. It was such an easy process to sign up and create my story via YOOCAN. Not only was it easy, but it also allowed me to view so many stories of triumph, bravery and determination. I was so inspired by the stories I read, from every day people like you and I, that I wanted to share the organization with you.\nThe following years, proved to be more than hypoglycemia. I found myself navigating symptoms of something I did not yet know about… blacking out, dizzy spells, convulsions, disorientation. Only a handful of episodes happened, but never enough to catch the culprit. I remember waking up in the middle of the night to get something to drink, only to awaken to my grandmother standing over me asking if I was OK. Another time, I gave blood my senior year of high school and promptly blacked out – which was again chalked up to hypoglycemia. Finally, my freshman year of college, my dorm roommate found me unconcious and lying on the floor, after my morning shower. Still thinking this was all hypoglycemia, I kept on going with life and thought nothing more of it.\nAfter seeing a neurologist, I was told I had a concussion. He told me that the concussion symptoms should subside soon, but to make sure I get some rest & take it easy. (Take it easy, during finals week?! Who was this guy kidding?) Immediately after explaining the concussion, he told me that I should make an appointment for an EEG to check my brain activity. Why not, right? I wanted to make sure I was OK after such a nasty spill. So, I scheduled the EEG for the following week. Anxious, confused, sleep deprived and worried, I showed up for my EEG. Wires, glue, a cold table and a nurse that lacked any sort of personality surrounded me, but I knew I had to do this. I fell asleep and let the monitor do it’s job. Once my EEG was complete, I couldn’t help but anxiously await the results. My neurologist called and asked my husband and I to come into his office. I was worried the news was bad, since he wanted to discuss my EEG in person. We waited for what seemed like forever, and finally the doctor came into the room. “You have Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy with generalized seizures.” I shrugged and said,”OK.” Thinking I would get more answers, but the only answers I received were in the form of a prescription pad.\nAfter being diagnosed, I was offered a job in California, using my newly obtained degree. I had not yet realized what my diagnosis meant for me and my life, but I did know that I wasn’t going to let a little thing like epilepsy stand in the way of everything I had been working so hard towards. I accepted the job and moved across the country 2 weeks later. After moving, my medication started taking its toll on my body, mood, & personality. I wasn’t the same person. I lost my drive, my determination, my joy and my life. I wasn’t living… I was simply existing. After 2.5 years on medication, I made the decision to stop taking pharmecuticals. I know this isn’t the best decision for most people, but I couldn’t continue living my life in that state. I began researching anything and everything I could get my hands on, in regards to epilepsy, and tried many natural methods of treatment.\nLIVING PROOF THAT IT’S POSSIBLE!\nI am happy to say that I never gave up & conquered my career goals by age 30! I had my dark moments, as most people with a chronic illness do, but I kept going. I worked really hard to overcome anxiety, depression, and the mentality that I wouldn’t be able to achieve my goals because of my diagnosis. Every year gets easier… I am now 35, and I am living my best life! Since achieving my goals in the fashion industry, I have moved on to a new chapter of my life. I am now teaching art classes for children, and it brings me so much joy! It is also very important to me to raise epilepsy awareness and educate others about the illness. In 2016, I started Life Elektrik, which is a virtual community via social media platforms & LifeElektrik.com. My goal is to educate others about epilepsy, support those living with epilepsy, and be an advocate for the epilepsy community. The virtual community is growing, and I’m so grateful to be on this journey, meeting others with epilepsy. |
A recent article in the Journal of Oral Implantology studied the stability of dental implants in women with osteoporosis who also use bisphosphonates. The researchers found that bone loss among these women could be managed when the implants were inserted immediately after removing teeth.\nThe authors concluded that by inserting implants soon after removing teeth, it is possible to decrease the risk of BRONJ among patients with osteoporosis.\nJournal of Oral Implantology – As natural as aging is, it can tend to feel like a downward spiral. As the years increase, bone mass and strength decrease. Teeth can fall out, and the drugs and surgery designed to return things to normal may actually make bone related issues worse.\nOsteoporosis is a common problem for women who have gone through menopause. Due to the disease, they lose bone mass and strength throughout their bodies, including their jawbone. The most common treatment today for osteoporosis is a class of drugs called bisphosphonates. But these drugs can have major complications that affect already weak bones, preventing them from getting blood and thus causing them to die. When this occurs in the jawbone, the complication is known as bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ).\nThe authors of an article published in the Volume 41 Special Issue of the Journal of Oral Implantology wanted to know whether a patient managing osteoporosis with bisphosphonates is at greater risk of experiencing this serious complication in the jawbone. They looked at patients who were 54 years of age or older and were receiving dental implants. The authors then compared the success of those implants in patients with and without osteoporosis.\nThe current study followed 24 postmenopausal women who had lost most of their teeth. Half of these patients had osteoporosis and were taking the bisphosphonate zoledronic acid once a year intravenously; the other half did not have this bone disorder and did not take the drug. Dental surgeons extracted all of the remaining teeth from each of the 24 women and immediately replaced them with dental implants. They examined them one year later to determine whether the implants were working.\nThe results were completely successful: the researchers found that all of the implants were still in place after one year. There was some bone loss, but it was similar in both groups of patients. There were no signs of dead bone among the patients who had taken zoledronic acid.\nAll 24 women in the study had good contact between the surface of the implants and the bone. The authors found that installing the implants immediately after extracting the remaining teeth reduced the number of surgeries, sped up the overall process, increased patient comfort, and produced good results even in patients with osteoporosis.\nThe authors concluded that by inserting implants soon after removing teeth, it is possible to decrease the risk of BRONJ among patients with osteoporosis. They noted that patients taking such bisphosphonates should avoid elective oral surgery, but if it is essential, it can be successful. They recommend implant surgery immediately after tooth removal, calling it a “safe treatment modality” for patients with osteoporosis.\nFull text of the article “Immediate Implant Placement in a Patient With Osteoporosis Undergoing Bisphosphonate Therapy: 1-Year Preliminary Prospective Study,” Journal of Oral Implantology, Vol. 41, Special Issue, 2015, is now available. |

Yes, you read that right, Breakfast Brunch Cafe IN “Cypress.” I actually ventured past the loop to try a brunch/breakfast spot out in the suburb. Of course there is a backstory! So I grew up in Cypress which is partly why I have a love/hate relationship with it. My parents still love it and as retirees spend much of their time trying new spots. A couple of months ago my parents RAVED to me about a new black owned breakfast spot out by them. “Oh you must try it!” they told me. My response of course was, I doubt it is that good if it’s in Cypress. I’m horrible I know.\nSo I ignored my parents suggestion as a lot of know it all grown children tend to do, to their own peril. Low and behold, the owners of Breakfast Brunch Cafe reached out to the Houston Food Blogger Collective asking us to step out of our norm and come try their amazing brunch spot in Cypress. With two suggestions, I decided to just shut up and go.\nCypress has been a boom town for about twenty years. Every time I drive around, the vast fields I remember from my childhood in Cypress are now developed into neighborhoods featuring beautiful mini mansions. The Towne Lake Boardwalk is the epitome of that. Anchored by the Towne Lake neighborhood, the boardwalk aims to be the center of the entertainment for the neighborhood. Sitting on an actual lake with real boats and such, the Towne Lake Boardwalk includes several restaurants and spaces for many more.\nBreakfast Brunch Cafe recently moved from a smaller location on Fry Road to this booming spot and do not seem to have missed a beat. The restaurant has a prime location near the park area. There is a small patio area immediately outside the front door. Inside, you see a moderately stocked bar and one dining room area. On the Saturday I went, there was of course a wait for seating. My parents tell me that is standard for now.\nI love that restaurants are branching out beyond plain ole orange juice and champagne. I joined my fellow bloggers who were already enjoying a carafe of strawberry mimosas which were sweeter than I expected. The menu also includes several other brunch based cocktails.\nThe mimosas! They were already an hour in when I arrived.\nThere were SO many options on this menu that we all spent several minutes debating what to get. In true food blogger fashion, we each ordered something different to ensure we had a variety. Before ordering our entrees though, we feasted on their signature dish, French beignets coupled with a salted caramel sauce.\nI went for the bananas fosters french toast with thick cut bacon! When the dish was presented to me I was honestly skeptical because it included fresh bananas which I did not expect. Then I cut into it and immediately saw that the bananas foster flavor was present through the syrup. I moved on to the bacon which lived up to it’s description as thick cut and delicious!\nThe crab cake benedict! The crab cake itself was seasoned exceptionally well and the sauce was just icing on top.\nThe roasted pork benedict with a cheese grit cake.\nThe Steak and Eggs! Marinated hanger steak with two sunny side up eggs and potatoes.\nSo… I was wrong. Cypress can have good non-franchise restaurants and Breakfast Brunch Cafe is a prime example of it! If you live in the area be sure to check it out! For those who live in other parts of town, when you make your treks out to the Cypress outlets, stop here first to load up before shopping. You will not regret it!\nThis would be the perfect prelude to a day of shopping at the outlets. They had me at strawberry mimosas. The chicken and waffles and steak and eggs look delish!\nThis looks like the perfect prelude to a day of shopping at the outlets! You had me at strawberry mimosas.

Style is not about adding graceful flourishes or witty asides. Style is about how you reach your readers. Highly effective stylists always make consideration of audience and genre-specific expectations part of the writing process. If you can anticipate what your readers will need as they move through your argument in real time, you can build responses to those needs right into the text. And that is a big part of what makes a text (and its author) compelling.\nStay in the present. Write for the readers of your current work, not the ghosts of past readers. Some former readers may loom large when you think of your audience. You may think of your dissertation advisor or other committee members, for instance. Be careful not to let the pet peeves of one or a few readers limit your sense of expression.\nConsider the audience for the journal. Before you submit an article, check out who is on the editorial board. What are their interests and possible biases? Read through recent articles in that journal. What do you notice about their tone or method of organization? Can you see your article as part of an ongoing conversation on this topic in those journals pages?\nTest drive your ideas. Another great way to get a sense of who your readers will be and how they may react to your argument is to try out parts of your argument at conferences and colloquia. Note the kinds of questions you receive and decide if your article might be stronger if you addressed these questions in your text.\nPut yourself in the reader’s shoes. Have you ever felt overwhelmed by dense academic prose? It’s helpful to understand the cognitive demands that your style of writing places on those reading it. Readers store particulars from a text in their working memory, where they can quickly retrieve things to make sense of the larger picture of what they are reading. However, the capacity of working memory is limited. That’s why dense academic prose can overwhelm readers. The goal is to place your ideas in the text where your readers expect them and where they can absorb them. In other words, try to offer your ideas at roughly the same pace at which readers absorb ideas. You don’t want to make your readers work too hard to make sense of your ideas. Most of the burden of sense making should be the writer’s job, not the reader’s.\nVary your sentences. Experiment with alternating medium and long sentences, even sprinkling in a few very short ones. Imagine that paragraphs are like a stanza of music. Then, consider the rhythm of your own paragraphs. If each sentence is the same length and uses the same sentence construction, the rhythm will be plodding. Alternating long sentences (with qualifying clauses) with short sentences (with simple syntax) tends to pick up the pace. So, review your sentences. Are there unnecessary phrases that you can cut? Can you find ways to express long sentences more succinctly or break them into shorter sentences?\nProvide breaks for the reader. Remember that white space is part of the text. The white space at the end of paragraphs, along with the small blank space at the end of each sentence, opens up a bit of space for the reader to stop taking in information, just for a second. These breaks allow readers to pause and digest information. So, consider the balance of type and white space on your pages. Are you using enough paragraph breaks to allow readers to pause and process what you’ve said?\nUse headings as guideposts. Similar to paragraph breaks, subheadings help to break down the manuscript into topic-based chunks. Subsections allow a brief pause for reflection and signal the movement of the arguments through its constitutive paragraphs.\nRead aloud. Reading your work aloud is a good way to hear the rhythm of your own prose. Is it dense and laborious? Or rushed? Does it flow with a natural-feeling pace? Be sure to notice the places where you stumble as you read aloud. Your reader probably also will stumble in those spots.\nSwap drafts with a friend or colleague. Ask your reader to circle sentences where he or she felt confused or had to read two or three times to grasp the meaning. Your friend doesn’t need to diagnose or explain what threw her. The mere location of the problematic passage is helpful. As you then read it aloud, you probably will realize the source of potential confusion. In my work with authors, I’ve noticed that once the unclear spot is flagged, writers often quickly see how to revise it. If, of course, you still do not see the problem, follow up with your initial reader, an advisor, or perhaps even a writing coach with more specific content-related questions.\nThough this blog has gotten into some of the nitty-gritty of designing sentences and phrasing, the next blog in this series dives deeper into sentence structure. After all, sentences are one of the most fundamental units of writing. Yet, too many academic authors just do not understand what readers most need in terms of sentence structure. |

This week, we’ll be featuring Chris Eftychiou, a teacher at Northern Valley Regional High School in Demarest, NJ who uses Cacoo for Education in the classroom.\nNulab: First, we would love to know more about your professional background and how you got to where you are today.\nChris: My undergraduate degree is in Special Education and Elementary Education from Seton Hall University. My Master’s Degree is in Instructional Technology and Media from Teachers College at Columbia University.\nI have been teaching for 16 years as a special education teacher. I teach collaboratively with general education teachers in nearly all subject areas.\nNulab: What got you into teaching?\nChris: My father was an English teacher, and we have other educators in my family. (A common thread for many teachers.) Being around educators showed me how rewarding an experience being a teacher can be both in terms of the impact you can have on students lives, but also the quality of life that comes with the career.\nI was also inspired by many teachers growing up. I was the kind of kid to hang out and spend extra time at school. My 6th-grade science teacher said to me one day that he thought I would make a great teacher. So, I ran with it! Most people don’t know what they want to be by that age, but I did.\nNulab: Can you tell us a bit more about your school? How many students are there total? How many classes/students do you teach?\nNulab: How did you first discover Cacoo? When?\nChris: My colleague and I were discussing infographics and diagrams, so I did what any educator does: I ‘Googled’ online web diagrams. I had used the software-based Inspiration years ago when we used to have PCs in our classrooms. Then, they launched Webspiration, but our school never subscribed, and I never really pushed for it.\nWhen I found a free product like Cacoo, I ran with it. Cacoo offered us the Team Plan for free as we are a public school and obviously not-for-profit. This was amazing!\nSince then, I have become a maven of the product in the school, but I am only now beginning to push myself to present professional development workshops on the product to my colleagues.\nNulab: When did you first start using Cacoo in the classroom?\nChris: I have been using Cacoo for around five years in the classroom, but I’ve used it most heavily the last two years. My classes are given a Cacoo diagram or assignment for nearly every chapter/topic we cover in biology.\nNulab: What kind of assignments do you give students where they use Cacoo?\nChris: There are new standards in science called Next Gen Science Standards, and Cacoo fits in perfectly as a tool for constructing knowledge in infographics and system models. We have students build system diagrams of photosynthesis and cell respiration, break down complex topics into parts, create comics, and annotate lab photos, all using Cacoo.\nCacoo can also be used as a note-taking tool in parallel to instruction or to construct and illustrate complex systems. It’s all about teacher creativity.\nNulab: How often do you/your students use Cacoo?\nThe Carbon Cycle project is brand new. Essentially, students are provided a diagram of a healthy carbon cycle. They annotate the diagram describing each step in the system. Then, they are assigned a disruption, such as increased airline travel or deforestation. They have to show a before and after diagram demonstrating the effects on the system. This touches upon some great higher level thinking skills!\nThis is a student sample of the project. See Tabs 3 and 4 for airline travel as a disruption.\nThis is a student sample. Students are challenged to create a visual metaphor for a cell as a city. Their city can produce any product (i.e. protein) such as iPhones or sneakers. The project rubric presents all of the key organelles and students collaboratively decided what buildings in a city might represent them. Using Google Images, they find clip art to import into Cacoo to create very cool, annotated infographics of their city.\nThis is a static worksheet our teachers have used for years that I repurposed into digital format.\nFor this project, students are challenged to ungroup the rock and creatures to free them up. We project this diagram as we pass around a wireless Bluetooth keyboard which students use to drag around objects where they think they should go. Each time a student moves a creature from one place to the next, they voice why they are doing so.\nYou can challenge students to diagram anything. Here they sculpted a transitional form, took a photo, and then annotated it in Cacoo. Cacoo can be used in so many creative ways in any discipline.\nWolves were extinct until the 1990s, and then we reintroduced them to Yellowstone. Diagram 1 demonstrates the Yellowstone Ecosystem without wolves. Diagram 2 shows it with wolves. Students use quantity of pictures to show the changes in the ecosystem. Students print the diagrams and then justify their changes orally 1:1 with the teacher as a form of assessment and understanding.\nThis project was used to illustrate antibacterial resistance. Using free Google images of comic layouts, students choose their layout and let creativity run.\nYes, there are dedicated programs to making comics, which is great, but students already adept at using Cacoo can do this very quickly and easily.\nOne of the most common inquiry activities ever in science is the Inquiry Cube. Essentially, you give students a cube that is missing one side, and they have to use observations to try to figure out the missing part.\nWhen the diagram is printed out, as in the teacher sample above, Snow White is cut out, folded up, and taped. Each student makes one, holding the cut-off “key.” As they go, they fill out forms of their observations.\nThat is the blank [version] they get. And in fact, this was the first Cacoo-based [project] we did this year!\nNulab: Obviously, you’re aware that there are features built into Cacoo for collaborating (like two people can work on a diagram simultaneously.) Do you/your classes collaborate using Cacoo? Whether that be between students and other students, students and teachers, or teachers and teachers?\nChris: We have collaborated [using Cacoo], and it was great. I want to do more and more with that. I think [collaboration] is one of the most powerful things.\nNulab: What are your beliefs about the importance of students and teachers collaborating? Do you think it enhances the educational process?\nChris: One of the most powerful aspects of collaborative technology is that it allows students and teachers to work together in a safe synchronous or asynchronous environment. Students that may not feel comfortable raising their hand may want to express their knowledge on a message board or through making a diagram/infographic in Cacoo.\nNVD prides itself on our collaborative teaching model. We have workshops and consultations built into our schedule to help us plan for our diverse student’s needs. Our collaborative model also allows for the planning and implementation of student-centered learning using products such as Cacoo. Cacoo is so simple that more and more teachers are beginning to engage with it! The key is sitting down with colleagues to make sure they see its power.\nNulab: Do you use Cacoo yourself, outside of what you assign your students? If so, what do you use it for personally?\nChris: I use it for my soccer business at times.\nNulab: Could you see Cacoo being useful to the school on a grander scale? For example, would you recommend it to administrators?\nChris: Absolutely, and I want to stress that I plan on making Cacoo diagrams for many subjects to showcase its potential as a universal product for instruction.\nI think that Cacoo needs to look at an EDU version of the program that allows schools to have an Administration-level member with individual Teacher accounts who can invite students to individual classes.\nNulab: What other digital products do you use in the classroom?\nChris: We are big Peardeck users and EdPuzzle users!\nNulab: What kind of shift do you see (if any) in the classroom towards digital tools being used in education?\nChris: Our school has a 1:1 technology program where every student has been issued a MacBook Air. So, we are all on the same page in terms of hardware and software.\nWe use Haiku as our backbone of instruction. This is a very powerful Learning Management System (LMS) that allows for online collaboration, online assessment, and obviously the posting of all assignments. So, all Cacoo projects are posted there and linked to there. I have some colleagues who have moved to nearly paperless.\nThat being said, I think there will be a pushback, and we will strike a balance between innovative online tools and traditional instruction.\nNulab: Thank you again for taking the time to speak with us. We know how hard teachers work these days, and sparing this time for us means a lot! Have a great afternoon, Chris!\nChris: My pleasure! Take care, and it is a GREAT product.\nThe Collaboration Collection series asks Nulab customers to share their expertise, workflows, insights, and more. Know someone who would make a great feature?

Wikimedia Commons has media related to Sports video games.\nThe main article for this category is Sports game.\nSports games emulate the playing of traditional physical sports such as Association football, American football, Australian rules football, baseball, boxing, basketball, Cricket, golf, ice hockey, tennis, bowling, rugby, skateboarding, wrestling, etc. Some emphasize actually playing the sport, while others emphasize the strategy behind the sport (such as Championship Manager or Baseball Mogul). Others satirize the sport for comic effect (such as Arch Rivals). This genre emerged early in the history of video games and remains popular today and is extremely competitive, just like real-world sports. Some Sports games also sometimes fall under The category of fighting games including those of wrestling, boxing and mixed martial arts though not to be confused or compared with games such as Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, or Tekken as those are in the Subgenre of action video game genre as to boxing, mixed martial arts, and wrestling are subgenres of sports games .

With this weeks International Women's Day it seemed only natural to meet with Natalie Wo, the founder of Girls about Peckham.\nOne thing we like to see is local people using Peckham Levels time and time again, getting creative in the space and using the space as a platform for their own ventures and projects. One of the names that continued to pop up on our socials, as well at our events was @girlsaboutpeckham and so we met with Natalie to find out more.\nSo, what is Girls about Peckham?\nGirls about Peckham was just an idea playing and forming around in my head teasing me, after many thoughts on how to share the stories of the different girls about Peckham, the hashtag #girlsaboutpeckham was created late in 2016.\nGirls, girls, girls on the roads of Peckham, new faces, outfits worn differently, new styles. If you have an eye for fashion you are certain to spot out the “new” It girls. With new energies intertwining, new spots jammed packed with newbies and creative opportunities spiralling into each other developing a new story of Peckham.\nWhat makes the Girls about Peckham stand out from other towns?\nIt’s Peckham and will always stand out to me, hence why I never moved out, others only saw the dirt, I saw the roses growing through the dirt. Imagine after so many years things are changing this is my way of documenting how we went from the original gals like myself and my friends to the new girls about Peckham.\nWhat do you enjoy the most about the project?\nThe favourite parts has to be connecting with the girls. I take my pictures based on something about the girl that captures my eye the connection is built of my eye searching for details about a person. Sometimes we are both looking at each other and just start talking about everyday life.\nWhat are your hopes for the future of GAP?\nTo have a huge billboard with myself and many faces from GAP, a space for Girls about Peckham where we can host and create, new modern girl guides I.e. we love fashion, art, reading and connecting with other women, hosting our very own fashion show organised by GAP for Peckham.\nHas the arrival of Peckham Levels added to the project at all?\nI have girls using the hashtag or even tagging us saying they are 'GAP' I asked how did you find out about the page they said via Peckham Levels and wanted to be part of this great project. AWESOME. |
Notes in Relation to Reports.\nThe Attendance records go back to the Inaugural Meeting of the Association.\nReports prior to late 2000 are unaccounted for at present. All reports from 22nd November 2000 are contained in written form within a Minute Book until records were computerised in 2011. It is not feasible to copy and print documents prior to 2011. Records and reports were rarely printed or widely circulated until recently but are available for research if required.\nThe Minutes of the General Meeting for December 2014 have been misplaced due to computer failure during January 2015. Due to an error in communications the minutes for the General Meeting in March 2017 were not recorded. The only document for this meeting is the Presidents Report. |

This page compares Thermocouple vs RTD vs Thermistor and mentions difference between Thermocouple, RTD and Thermistor w.r.t. functions, advantages and disadvantages. The differences are covered in terms of advantages and disadvantages of each of these temperature sensor devices.\nThe thermocouple is a component used for measurement of temperature. They are very cost effective solution for wide range of temperature measurement with reasonable accuracy. They are used for various applications in boilers, ovens, water heaters, aircraft engines etc.\nThe figure-1 depicts simple thermocouple construction. As shown in the figure, there are two junctions in the thermocouple "measurement or Hot junction" and "reference or Cold junction".\nTwo wires of dissimilar metals which are joined together to form Hot junction. At the other end, wires are not joined and are connected with signal conditioning circuits made of copper. As earlier mentioned, this junction which is connecting metals with copper traces is known as "cold junction".\nThermocouple is a differential device as voltage generated at reference juncton depends on temperatures at both measurement junction and reference junction.\nThe figure-2 depicts temperature vs voltage graphs for different thermocouple types viz. type E, J, K, R and S. Depending upon use of metal wires thermocouples are available to measure temperature in the range from -200 degreeC to +2500 degreeC.\nThe most popular thermocouple is type-K thermocouple which consists of chromel® and Alumel® which measures temperature from -200 degreeC to +1250 degreeC.\nRefer difference between thermocouple types>>.\n• They support wide temperature range from -200 degreeC to +2500 degreeC depending upon metal wires used in the construction.\n• They can be used in hazardous environments as they are rugged devices and also are immune to shock and vibration.\n• They respond very rapidly to temperature changes as they are small in size and have lower thermal capacity. They respond in few hundred milliseconds.\n• They do not require any external power and hence are prone to self heating. Hence they are safe compare to all the other types viz. RTD/thermistor.\n• They are available in wide variety of physical forms.\n• They are least stable and least expensive.\n• Substantial signal conditioning is needed to convert voltage into usable temperature reading.\n• The measurement is only as accurate as reference junction temperature measurement, and is approx. within 1 degreeC to 2 degreeC.\n• Thermocouple measurement at microvolt level will be a problem as noise due to stray electric and magnetic fields will create problem. Due to this, wires are twisted and shielded cables are used to reduce magnetic and electric fields respectively.\nAs mentioned RTD stands for Resistance Temperature Detector or sensor. RTDs are passive devices usually made of platinum wire whose resistance varies with temperature. platinum RTD is the most common and accurate temperature sensor. It measures temperature from -200 degreeC to +850 degreeC. It has measurement accuracy of +/-0.02 degreeC.\nThe figure-3 depicts resistance versus temperature relationships for different RTD materials viz. nickel, Balco, copper and platinum.\nY-axis: normalized resistance w.r.t. resistance at 0 degreeC or 32 degreeF.\n• It has reasonable linearity.\n• They are most stable among all the temperature sensor devices.\n• suitable for precision applications.\n• They are more linear compare to thermocouples.\n• It requires signal conditioning.\n• Cost of RTDs are higher.\n• They are slow in operation.\n• Need current source for operation.\n• They need four wires in measurement.\n• The effects known as self heating and lead wire resistance can cause errors in the measurements carried out by RTDs.\nThe Thermistors are devices whose resistance changes with temperature variation. They are referred as temperature dependent resistors. Depending upon different materials in the construction of thermistors there are two types of thermistors viz. NTC (i.e. Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor and PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) thermistor. In NTC themistor resistance is inversely proportional to the temperature and hence resistance decreases when temperature increases. In PTC thermistor resistance is directly proportional to the temperature and hence resistance increases when temperature increases and viceversa. Most of the thermistors are of NTC type.\nThey are available in temperature range from -100 degreeC to +150 degreeC. They are used for various applications in batteries, coolants, engines, freezers and incubators for over-temperature shutdown purposes and for monitoring and control of temperatures.\n• They are available in small packages.\n• They provide higher output.\n• They are fast in operation.\n• They need two wire ohms measurement.\n• They achieve higher precision but in limited temperature range.\n• They are nonlinear and their nonlinearity can be addressed using software or hardware circuits.\n• Thermistors are resistive devices and hence requires excitation current to read the voltage across their terminals. This results into effect known as self heating. In order to limit the self heating error, care must be taken to limit the sensing current to lower value.\n• They are nonlinear in operation.\n• As mentioned they require current source for their operation.\nThe above figure depicts voltage/resistance versus temperature curve in a single plot to compare thermistor, RTD and thermocouple (TC) as shown. |
Taylor Swift and Her Squad Spend a Night Out in NYC at Private Kings of Leon Concert -- See the Pics!\nTaylor Swift hit the town with her gal pals in tow on Wednesday night as the famous squad turned out for a private Sirius XM listening event featuring the Kings of Leon in New York City.\nThe 1989 singer was joined by some of her famous friends, including Cara Delevingne, Lorde, and Victoria's Secret models Martha Hunt, Lily Donaldson and Suki Waterhouse.\nAn eyewitness tells ET the group all met up at Swift's place, where they hung out for a while before piling into an SUV that drove them to the Kings of Leon show at (Le) Poisson Rouge. The star-studded squad, all rocking VIP passes, snuck in via a side door at around 9 p.m.\nThe "Blank Space" singer was dressed to impress in a short, form-fitting black number that she complemented with a pair of black, lace-up, patent leather high-heel boots.\nIn fact, black seemed to be the whole squad's color of choice for the night.\nHunt and Delevingne, however, opted for a more dressed-down look, rocking dark jeans and black jackets.\nOnce inside the venue, the girls joined up with model Lily Aldridge, whose husband, Caleb Followill, is the lead singer for Kings of Leon.\nThe squad hung out for the hour-long show before leaving the venue and heading to The Bowery Hotel for the after party, where they partied with the band. That's certainly a great way to paint the Big Apple red!\nSwift and some members of her superstar squad hit the town late last month for another fun night out, dinning at The Waverly Inn in New York City. Check out the video below for a closer look.\nTaylor Swift Steps Out in New York City Looking Carefree -- See the Pics! |

Newcomer Jane Ryan is the author of 47 Seconds, an exciting new crime thriller set in Dublin and Birmingham. The first in a series of books, the story follows fiery Detective Garda Bridget (Bridge to her friends) Harney, who works in the Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau based in Harcourt Square. Bridget is obsessed with the enigmatic Sean Flannery and his organised crime family, to an unhealthy degree. We first meet Bridget and her stable, supportive side-kick Kay Shanahan at Dublin Port, where a frozen human arm is discovered inside a pig carcass.\nWhile 47 Seconds has the typical foundations of its genre, Ryan is a storyteller with natural comic timing, clever turns of phrase, and a strong set of individual characters. The book is told mainly from Bridget’s perspective, but we also have a smattering of chapters that focus on other viewpoints.\nThe troubled protagonist has the outer shell of a middle-class woman who disappointed her father by trading a promising law career for An Garda Síochána, her Trinity College scarf a constant comfort blanket. Seen as tough and impenetrable, what’s underneath is someone prone to great loneliness, vulnerability and a desire to succeed.\nThe softer side of 47 Seconds has heart-warming illustrations of friendship, family and the complications of caring for someone with Alzheimer’s. On the harder edge, not only do we have a classic game of cat-and-mouse, but the narrative explores sexism and gender equality in Ireland’s police force, and the impact of drugs and abuse. We get a detailed portrayal of organised crime investigation, thanks to Ryan’s extensive research, and if you look between the lines hard enough, you might just recognise some real life characters in the process.\nJane Ryan grew up in Co Kildare and went to boarding school in Co Wicklow. She studied with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland and spent two decades working in the technology and communications sector. Her short fiction has appeared both online and in print, her most recent contribution was to the anthology, Strange Love Affairs.\n47 Seconds (€15.99) is published by Poolbeg Press and available nationwide.\nI live in Dun Laoghaire by the sea with my husband Ron and two boys, Adam and Conor, we’ve lived here for nearly twenty years. We bought the house just before we were married. The house was built in 1880. Ron’s mum spotted the house was up for auction, we fell in love with it immediately, complete with cracked roof tiles, single glazed windows and pocked redbrick. The neighbourhood is great with a real sense of community, the People’s Park has a Sunday market where you can buy food or lemony crepes to munch while you browse, we do a lot of that! When the children were smaller we would play in the park and take The Metals walkway home; it’s a short cut of connected lanes for pedestrians and cyclists, lots of chances to stop and look at the Dart rushing by which caused great excitement. Costello Flowers is a regular on my daily walk with the dog, a tiny shop bursting with blooms, I will often call in for a chat. I love fresh coffee and walk through the village after the school drop to J.J. Darboven, the smell of roasting beans enticing me. Unfortunately I am easily enticed and an inveterate cake eater, the White Tea Café does a rich and moist coffee cake, I get a take-out slice and sit outside the Mariners’ Church and enjoy the biting sea air.\nI’m from Rathmore in Kildare. When I was child Rathmore was truly the countryside, a townsland with a single cream and green telephone box to let you know you were near civilisation. It was a farming community with a few blow-ins from Dublin, like my family. I remember drifts of snow in winter and our nearest neighbour driving his Zetor tractor complete with front loader over to dig out our driveway, the stink of the diesel as he revved the engine and the excitement of what seemed like a mountain rescue. In summer it was hay; the dry, sweet smell of it being cut and saved. My brother and I would always lend a hand in our neighbour’s farm, stacking bales and running after the harvester, which was a huge three-man operated machine that threw out square bricks of straw. It was an open, friendly community and it’s where my brother’s love of farming comes from.\nMy formative years were spent in Kildare at home with my parents and brother. My brother was a little older and christened me “Slim Jim” as I was tiny with a home haircut and looked like a boy. I adored living in the countryside and had room to roam, with a field full of horses and trees behind our house. I would spend hours reading in a huge sycamore tree just beyond our garden fence. I have a love of solitude and the effect countryside has on your senses from that time in my life. I also have a very vivid imagination from spending so much time on my own as a child. I had pen pals and adored writing letters. Letter writing gave me a love of telling stories and sharing memories that has stayed with me. I went to boarding school in Our Lady’s School, Clermont for my last couple of years in secondary school. It was run by nuns, glorious and old-fashioned with just a tinge of Derry Girls.\nMy father read to me when I was young – my favourites were Sinead de Valera’s book of Irish fairy tales, it was full of emeralds that blackened when the heroine was in danger and witches who were washed away by underground streams. I loved Fantastic Mr. Fox, but I think my Dad’s favourites were C. S. Lewis’s The Chronicles of Narnia. I remember being enthralled and scared in equal measure when he started The Magician’s Nephew. My mother taught me to read when I was three and I was hooked.\nI read all the Enid Blyton books; The Famous Five, Mallory Towers, St Clare’s, and Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery, then moved onto Agatha Christie, which gave me a love of upending reader expectations. Our house was chock full of books on shelves, by bedsides, in cases and nothing was off-limits. If you could reach it you could read it!\nI write in the study upstairs. It has a front window and three big dormer windows on the other side of the room. It feels like a glass bubble at the top of the house. It’s trimmed with book shelves; my parents’ books, my husband’s books, mine and our children’s books, so in essence those shelves contain my past, present and future. I have photographs of my mum and dad, my grandfather and his ancient varnished desk in this room.\nI write at my grandfather’s desk. It gives me a lovely feeling of connection to all my family that are gone. It also keeps me focused, as my grandfather couldn’t abide slackers! If I lean to the left of my front window I can see the sea. Lest I am picturing a wondrous library type room – it’s not. In our house, space is at a premium and in the middle of the room the boys have their table tennis table. When the inspiration isn’t flowing I put up one half of the table and belt a few balls.\nIf I need a change of scene I go to my local library, the Lexicon in Dun Laoghaire. It’s at the end of my road and is a wonderful light-filled space. From the outside it looks like an old fashioned cruiser, having more the feeling and look of a huge ship docked on the skyline.\nI have many favourites, but I’ll keep it to two. The Book Centre in Waterford, which is housed in an old cinema and is just a delight. A more local independent book shop to me is Raven Books in Blackrock. Louisa was the first person to stock 47 Seconds and tweeted how she’d sold out before lunchtime. It’s a lovely spot where you can browse, ask for recommendations or just stop by for a chat. I almost always meet a friend when I pop in.\nWhere do I start? I break my TBR pile into three stacks: research, crime/thriller and other. In my research I currently have Garda Powers: Law and Practice by Rebecca Coen. This book compares policing practices between Ireland and England and Wales, with particular understanding of PACE codes of conduct. Similarly, I have Narconomics by Tom Wainwright, it’s a good read and has some useful statistics. In crime fiction, I currently have Snap by Belinda Bauer; I will read anything by Belinda Bauer. Burning Matches from Paul Fitzsimons; I’ve heard great things about this debut. The Healer by Sharon Thompson; her work is complex and intelligent. In other, I have Yuri Noah Harari’s Homo Deus, a book my husband enjoyed, and Echoes of Grace by Carragh Bell – it was described to me as “fabulous and frothy.” After all the crime, I need a little froth.\nI go to Cahore to escape. It’s a beach in Wexford outside Ballygarret and no matter what season you go to Cahore, rain or shine, that beach dissolves stress. We walk the dog, collect shells, the boys went pier diving in the hazy heat of last summer. You come back to reality rested and more alive. I would highly recommend it. Years ago you could stay in Cahore House, which was beautiful but has sadly fallen into disrepair.\nMy favourite foreign city is Berlin, it’s crisp and tangy like the sauerkraut soup from the Little Green Rabbit. It’s an active, bustling city with so much going on, from historical walking tours to hidden bars with a speakeasy feel. We keep returning and find something new each time.\nI think the seeds were planted years ago when I read fictional detectives and found myself drawn to police procedurals time and again. I love a whodunit or even a whydunit. Simenon’s Maigret is one of my favourite fictional detectives and I love Ian Rankin’s Rebus.\nA strong, uncompromising female character, who didn’t care if she was liked had been lurking around in my subconscious for years, when I read in 2015 that a Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau had been established, it piqued my interest and I started to wonder what it might be like to put my character in there.\nIf Ireland had a Scotland Yard, I believe it would be Harcourt Square, I found researching police forces fascinating; An Garda Síochána, The London Met, West Midlands Constabulary. Their strategies, policing procedures and development plans were all different yet had common threads. The single most rewarding thing I found during the writing process was giving Bridget her voice, letting her take control of the story while in some cases I simply sat back and watched.\nOne of the challenges in this book was researching the darker aspects of the story. The effects of drugs and abuse on individuals, families and society. Some of the scenes I wrote necessitated in-depth research of real-life situations and even the most dry, legalese account of violence is still violence.\nI’m not as disciplined as I hoped I was. I write like a maniac when it flows, but it doesn’t always flow and I don’t plan ahead enough. When my laptop wasn’t large enough to cope with my brain and the time periods within the story, I tacked sheets of paper to the shelves in my study. I should have started with this as it would have saved so much time!\nFor me, Bridge’s story isn’t done yet and I’m contracted for another two books. Outside my family, writing is my passion. It energises me, the whole process of research, outlining and the experience of letting my characters lead me. Hopefully there are many more stories in me and readers who want to be transported into Bridge’s world. |

Geoscientists held about 33,600 jobs in 2008, while another 8,100 were employed as hydrologists. Among hydrologists, 26 percent were employed in architectural, engineering, and related services, and 19 percent worked for management, scientific, and technical consulting services. The Federal Government employed about 27 percent of hydrologists, mostly within the U.S. Department of the Interior for the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and within the U.S. Department of Defense. Due to sovereignty issues, most tribes either have in place or are seeking trained professionals to monitor, manage, and protect their respective water resources. Employment of geoscientists and hydrologists is expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations.\nDemand for hydrologists should also be strong as the population increases and moves to more environmentally sensitive locations. As people increasingly migrate toward coastal regions, for example, hydrologists will be needed to assess building sites for potential geologic hazards and to mitigate the effects of natural hazards such as floods, landslides, and hurricanes. Hydrologists also will be needed to study hazardous-waste sites and determine the effect of pollutants on soil and groundwater so that engineers can design remediation systems.\nIncreased government regulations, such as those regarding the management of storm water, and issues related to water conservation, deteriorating coastal environments, and rising sea levels also will stimulate employment growth for these workers. In addition to demand resulting from job growth, replacing those who leave the occupation for retirement, managerial positions, or other careers will generate a number of jobs.\nA significant number of geoscientists are approaching retirement age, and without increases in the number of students earning degrees in the geosciences, job openings will exceed the number of qualified jobseekers over the 2008-18 projection period. Job prospects for hydrologists should be favorable, particularly for those with field experience. Today there are approximately three positions for every hydrology applicant.\nSome geoscientists and hydrologists spend the majority of their time in an office, but many others divide their time between fieldwork and office or laboratory work. Work at remote field sites is common. Some specialists often take field trips that involve significant physical activity and some risk. In the field they work in warm or cold climates and in all kinds of weather.\nIn their research, they may dig or chip with a hammer, scoop with a net, and carry equipment in a backpack. Oceanographers may spend considerable time at sea on academic research ships. Geologists frequently travel to remote field sites by helicopter or 4-wheel-drive vehicles and cover large areas on foot. Many exploration geologists and geophysicists work in foreign countries, sometimes in remote areas and under difficult conditions. Travel often is required to meet with prospective clients or investors. Fieldwork often requires working long and irregular hours.\nA number of States require geoscientists and hydrologists who offer their services directly to the public to obtain a license from a State licensing board. Licensing requirements vary by State but typically include education and experience requirements and a passing score on an examination. In States that do not require a license, workers can obtain voluntary certifications. For example, the American Institute of Hydrology offers certification programs in professional hydrology that have similar requirements to State licensure programs.\nComputer skills are essential for prospective geoscientists and hydrologists; students who have experience with computer modeling, data analysis and integration, digital mapping, remote sensing, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) will be the most prepared entering the job market. Knowledge of the Global Positioning System (GPS)—a locator system that uses satellites—has also become essential. Some employers seek applicants with field experience, so a summer internship is often helpful.\nBecause geoscientists and hydrologists usually work as part of a team with other geoscientists and with environmental scientists, engineers, and technicians, they must have good interpersonal skills. Strong oral and written communication skills also are important because writing technical reports and research proposals and explaining research results in person are important aspects of the work.\nWorkers must be inquisitive, able to think logically, and capable of complex analytical thinking, including spatial visualization and the ability to infer conclusions from sparse data. Geoscientists and hydrologists involved in fieldwork must have physical stamina.\nMedian annual wages of hydrologists were $71,450 in May 2008. The middle 50 percent earned between $54,910 and $89,200; the lowest 10 percent earned less than $44,410, and the highest 10 percent more than $105,010. In March 2009, the Federal Government’s average salary was $94,085 for geologists, $108,118 for geophysicists, $89,404 for hydrologists, and $105,671 for oceanographers. |

The Packers fanbase is growing more and more desperate for the Lombardi trophy to return to Green Bay. Entering the draft, most every Packer fan had a beer with their buddy and said, ‘They need to address the defensive side of the ball, particularly at cornerback.’ Oh, what intellects we are. Go Pack.\nTed Thompson addressed the concerns early in the draft, picking first round talent Kevin King with the first pick of the second round. He then used the team’s own second round pick to draft Josh Jones out of N.C. State.\nConsidering the Packers’ secondary put a lot of stress on the team’s dynamic offense, as well as these two players being the team’s top picks, they’re in good position to find a spot in the rotation.\nThe team also re-acquired Davon House in free agency after he was released by the Jacksonville Jaguars. He brings a veteran presence to the team, as well as his ability to press his opponent at the line. House could step back into a starting role for the Packers, as he showed he can be a starting cornerback in the right system. In an interview with Mike Stofford of packers.com, House gives details on what he thinks went right in Jacksonville, as well as what went south.\nLet’s consider how the coaching staff would match their new secondary using their 2017 playoff run as our base.\nThe Giants brought a ton of talent to the wide receiver position last season. Odell Beckham Jr. brought plenty of star power. Victor Cruz gave them a talented slot receiver, who was well on his way to superstar status before his knee injury in 2015. Reuben Randle also gave them a second threat on the edge.\nCoach McCarthy has already spoken about Josh Jones potential role in an interview with Larry McCarren of packers.com, comparing the rookie to Micah Hyde. Check out the interview, Coach always seems happy with his rookie group, but seems extra genuine about it this season.\nWhen the Packers matched up with the Giants in the playoffs last season, the secondary gave the Giants multiple opportunities for big plays/potential touchdowns that Odell Beckham failed to pull in. If he had his normal game, that was going to be a dogfight. The Packers used Ladarius Gunter to guard Bechkam, Demarious Randall on Randle, with Quinten Rollins/Hyde on Cruz.\nIt’ll be interesting to see what the Packers intend Gunter’s role to be this upcoming season. I haven’t read much around the Packers news sphere expecting him to be one of the starting corners, but the fact that the team trusted him enough to match up with the best receivers in the game during the playoffs means something.\nI expect the Packers to throw either King or Gunter on Beckham. With a breakout rookie season, King gets the nod. If he has the expected up and down rookie campaign, they’ll likely side with Gunter’s experience. This leaves King to match up with Randle on the opposite edge.\nFellow rookie Jones, as McCarthy has already eluded to, would likely line up against the opposing tight end and slot receiver throughout the game. One thing to consider with the Hyde comparison, Jones has more size, as well as speed as the former Packer, allowing him to potentially contribute in even more ways. Back to packers.com, Mike Spofford reports that Jones played some inside linebacker during the rookie minicamp.\nHouse and Randall would be the team’s likely wildcard, able to step in on the edges or inside. Either can work their way into the starting lineup this season. However, against New York, the Packers would be best served using their best athletes to try to limit the bubble Beckham creates for himself.\nThe Cowboys have a similar talent in Dez Bryant to Odell Beckham Jr. Once again last season, the Packers gave Gunter the duty of slowing down the star receiver. Gunter was injured early in the first half, but was able to return to the game.\nThe Cowboys took advantage of the matchup, as they had the advantage before the injury. Bryant finished the game with nine receptions for 132 yards, and two touchdowns. The Packers were forced to bring safety help on Dez on every play, and he still dominated. The extra attention given to him, allowed the Cowboys to open an out route for Jason Witten, Cole Beasley, and Terrence Williams beneath Bryant’s seam route.\nThe Cowboys are a particularly difficult matchup for the Packers as they need to worry about the dynamic pass game, as well as slowing down the young sensation, Ezekiel Elliot.\nDefensive Coordinator, Dom Capers, would need to consider a balance between pass coverage and the defensive back’s ability to help with the run game. Once again, it’ll depend on how Kevin King plays during the regular season, but there’s a good chance he or Gunter would be given the duties of Bryant.\nOutside of that, the Packers would probably lean towards heavy Jones and House snap counts, as they both have the size and grit to help with the run game, while respectably covering their matchup.\nAtlanta’s top weapon is Julio Jones, who destroyed each team he faced in the playoffs. The Falcons weapons don’t stop with Jones, as they had the most weapons of any opponent the Packers faced in the 2016-2017 season. In the state the Packers defense was in, it makes total sense that they struggled to make the Falcons break a sweat.\nAtlanta’s offense rounds out with the talented Mohamed Sanu as the other outside receiver, and their two young running backs, Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman. Both running backs are very dangerous in the pass game, something the Packers struggled to contain in the conference championship blowout.\nThe Packers would need to decide who they think has the best bet in slowing Jones down. Once again, King would get the nod if he’s shown himself to be the real deal, or they’ll decide between the press ability of House and Gunter’s athletic makeup. Sanu requires a similar decision.\nJohn Jones would have the assignment of guarding the Falcons young tight end, Austin Hooper, as well as the two running backs out of the backfield. The Packers were forced to throw Jake Ryan into coverage against the dynamic backs. As much of a Jake Ryan fan as I am (I seem to be in the minority), he doesn’t have the speed necessary for this kind of assignment. He has good playmaking skills, but the defense forced him to cover more ground than his physical abilities allow.\nJohn Jones ran a 4.40 40 at the combine, giving him the speed necessary to chase the Falcons’ backs to the sideline. The Falcons running backs sneak out onto the perimeter during pass plays, giving them an opportunity to burn the linebacker in coverage with their quickness. The rookie safety is really the Packers only option for man to man coverage against this attack.\nOne thing is for sure, after the 2017 NFL Draft, the Packers defense has a lot more flexibility on the back end. |

1,000 sign up to address committee.\nMark Clinto holds his sign in the rotunda as demonstrators voice their opinion as the Capitol building fills before the Senate debates passage of abortion legislation on July 12, 2013.\nAUSTIN — Republicans and anti-abortion activists Tuesday tried to regain control of the contentious debate in the Legislature as a House panel heard passionate testimony late into the night on a sweeping package designed to limit the procedure.\nJust one day after an estimated 6,000 pro-abortion-rights activists turned the Legislature into a sea of orange, supporters of the anti-abortion legislation sported blue gear and turned out by the hundreds to pack the lower level of the Capitol.\nThat's where the House State Affairs Committee met Tuesday and by 10 p.m. had signed up about 1,000 to testify on House Bill 2, the catch-all proposal that critics say would effectively shutter the majority of the state's abortion clinics. The proposal also would ban abortions after 20 weeks.\nThe committee planned to cut off testimony at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday, easily leaving hundreds without the opportunity to speak. It was uncertain at press time whether Republicans would vote on the bill once the hearing wrapped up.\n“What we're going to do right now is get through the testimony,” Rep. Byron Cook, who chairs the panel, said when asked about the timing of a vote.\nThe Republican-led panel was expected to pass the bill out of committee so long as a quorum was maintained come midnight.\nIf passed Tuesday or early Wednesday, it would tee up the proposal for debate in the House on July 9, which is when the lower chamber returns to work.\nRepublicans in the Legislature are looking to move swiftly with the measure in the second attempt at passage.\nGov. Rick Perry summoned lawmakers back to work after Republicans failed to pass an identical anti-abortion bill during the first special session. Passage this time around is likely, as Republicans have the votes and plenty of time.\nDuring Tuesday's hearing, dozens of women shared personal stories with lawmakers about their experiences with abortion.\nAmy Cornwell of San Antonio told the panel she felt like abortion was the only available route to pursue when she found out she was pregnant at 19 and dropped out of college. As a result, she planned on aborting her pregnancy until she had a change of heart.\n“I would have been stuck with a baby (and nobody but me was) going to take care of her,” she said.\nAlthough substantially fewer activists hit the Capitol on Tuesday, security stayed fortified with a presence of Department of Public Safety troopers. No arrests were reported as of 10 p.m.\nThe theatrics also kept a steady pace. In a courtyard not far from where the House panel was debating, activists on both sides of the issue gathered to scream and chant for hours.\nAnti-abortion activists squeezed into a cramped hallway hours before a 3:30 start time for the hearing. Only a small batch — less than 100 — actually made it inside for the start of the hearing and witnesses were constantly rotated in and out of the room throughout the night. The rest were funneled into overflow rooms, which filled within minutes of opening.\nThe crowd for the hearing waited hours, growing tired and tense early in the day. The Capitol hallway was hot, sweaty and stale.\n“You're not running things. We are,” a DPS trooper snapped at a woman trying to nudge forward in line.\nAt the beginning of the hearing, Rep. Jodie Laubenberg, R-Parker, faced tough questions from Democrats.\nRep. Sylvester Turner, D-Houston, pressed Laubenberg to accept changes to her bill to require the state to fund changes to clinics that conduct abortions so they can meet the higher standards set forth in her legislation.\n“What happens if 37 clinics close?” Turner asked.\n“We're talking hypotheticals,” Laubenberg responded, saying she doesn't believe her bill will cause clinics to shutter. |

As teachers, we are entrusted with giving opportunities for students to ‘think actively’ in the classroom. Bombarding students with information with no room for thinking and reflecting does not serve the purpose of imparting quality education. Balancing teaching and active learning in the classroom is a challenging task for me. I try to use active learning strategies in my classroom as and when time permits. I would like to describe two such activities I used and continue to use during teaching.\nThe first activity is asking the students at the end of the class to design 3 questions from the topic which I covered in each lecture class. I make the students work in groups. In the next lecture class, before I start my lecture, I ask students in different rows to read aloud their questions and provide answers for the same. This activity was found to generate a lot of discussion in the classroom and students seemed to enjoy it. It also provided an opportunity for me to give feedback to the students regarding the quality of the questions and also the correctness and completeness of the answers.\nAnother activity which I did during my endocrinology lectures was to ask students to write stories on any endocrine disorders which they learnt. Again this was a group activity, where they had to work together outside class hours. Students commented that the story writing activity helped them to apply their knowledge and facilitated their creativity. Putting thoughts and creative ideas in writing was indeed learning through fun, as commented by the students.\nReem Rachel Abraham, PhD is an Associate Professor of Physiology at Manipal University. She teaches MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery), BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) and Allied Health Science courses through lectures, practical sessions, Problem-Based Learning (PBL), and Self-Directed Learning (SDL) sessions. Reem is a past LifeSciTRC Scholar and Fellow.\nI am always looking for ways to allow my students to be active participants during lectures. You have some great ideas. Thank you! |

The newest installment of the IATA Dangerous Good Regulations (DGR) came into effect January 1st, 2017. Are you fully aware of the requirements for temperature controlled shipments containing data loggers?\nShipping temperature controlled pharmaceuticals is a complex business, with many variables and multiple supply chain partners involved. When shipments are sent with data loggers, they are subject to specific IATA and Dangerous Good Regulations to increase security of air cargo shipments. These regulations have become stricter year on year and reached a new level in 2017.\nThe video above explains the differences between shipments of data loggers with traditional lithium batteries requiring special labeling; and shipments containing data logger types that are exempt from additional IATA labeling.\nBottom line: If you use data loggers without button cell batteries it's more work and heavier costs. As soon as you go over 3 boxes using a data logger in a single consignment or you use multiple data loggers in a single box, your shipment must adhere to new 2017 labeling and documentation requirements.\nData loggers containing button cell batteries are exempt from additional IATA labeling, so no extra forms and no extra handling costs – no matter how many boxes or pallets you ship. Watch video above for full details.\nThe choice of data loggers that you use in your temperature controlled distribution, could impact your entire logistics planning and handling procedures. With the right data logger, you not only save costs along the process, but also eliminate the hassle of additional paperwork and the risk of being non-compliant in your cold chain. Learn more about how a closed loop data monitoring system can simplify your cold chain logistics and ensure compliance.\nRead how LIBERO CS helps you implement an Allowable Excursion Model, drastically reducing number of excursions. |
Campaign for the American Reader: What is Philip Ball reading?\nThe current featured contributor to Writers Read: Philip Ball, author of several books on aspects of science and its interactions with other aspects of culture including Universe of Stone: Chartres Cathedral and the Triumph of the Medieval Mind and The Sun and Moon Corrupted (a novel).\nI’m not sure if this makes it a good or bad time to be asking what I’m reading: I am currently one of the judges for the Royal Society Science Book Prize (formerly the Aventis Prize), which means that the honest answer to the question is ‘too damned much’. Six boxes too much. But of course there are some pleasurable things among them, though I’m scarcely at liberty yet to say what those are.\nAside from all that, I have recently finished Simon Winchester’s biography of Joseph Needham, The Man Who Loved China (HarperCollins). It is extremely good. I’m embarrassed to say that, although Winchester has seemingly always been well reviewed, I’d not read anything of his before. But on the strength of this I can see why he is so highly regarded. Needham, the biochemist-turned-Sinologist who introduced the West to the history of Chinese science, had the kind of life that cried out for a biography, but Winchester doesn’t put a foot wrong, making effective use of his strong knowledge of China and providing a reliably balanced view of Needham’s successes and failures.\nPhilip Ball is a freelance science writer and a Consultant Editor for Nature. He worked as an editor for physical sciences at Nature for over ten years, where his brief extended from biochemistry to quantum physics and materials science. His writings on science for the popular press have covered topical issues ranging from cosmology to the future of molecular biology.\nBall is the author of several popular books on science, including works on the nature of water, pattern formation in the natural world, color in art, and the science of social and political philosophy. He has written widely on the interactions between art and science, and has delivered lectures to scientific and general audiences at venues ranging from the Victoria and Albert Museum (London) to the NASA Ames Research Center and the London School of Economics.\nLearn more about Philip Ball and his work at his website and blog. |

In this trio of videos, Alÿs walks around London's Georgian squares clack-clacking a stick along their iron railings and at one point setting off a car alarm, thus turning the armor of paranoid London into a found musical instrument. — Mark Godfrey, Art Forum, May 2006.\nOver five years Francis Alÿs walked the streets of London, mapping its habits and rituals in a range of different media, and the ensuing films, videos, paintings and drawings were presented as Seven Walks at 21 Portman Square in 2005 for the artist’s first major solo exhibition in the UK. Amongst these works was Railings which explores the rhythmic possibilities of one of the characteristic features of Regency London.\nIn the autumn of 2013, Railings was installed at Art Exchange as part of an exhibition of Francis Alÿs' project Seven Walks. The works in Seven Walks were developed by Alÿs over 5 years, and delved into the everyday rituals and habits of the metropolis. This exhibition at Art Exchange was accompanied by a symposium, which expanded on the themes of Alÿs' explorations of the city, and featured speakers TJ Demos, James Lingwood, Andrés Montenegro, Marina Warner and Richard Wentworth. The discussion was chaired by Dawn Ades.\nRailings featured in 'Projections', an exhibition of four moving image projects from The Artangel Collection, shown within the context of the the Whitworth, its collection, and the park that it shares with the city of Manchester. |
Published on May 16, 2014 by Web Solutions MN in Web Hosting category.\nMany businesses want to be a respected presence online and want to get word out virtually about their many services. The best way to do that is with a website. While many believe that they will have to pay massive sums of money to have someone create and maintain websites for their companies that is simply not the case any longer. A reputable Twin Cities Web hosting company is the perfect solution for businesses that are looking for a professional website and a unique domain.\nA Twin Cities Web hosting site will provide individuals and businesses in the Minneapolis/St. Paul areas with access to a personalized website as well as virtual storage space on the World Wide Web.

Many companies choose domains that are memorable and that contain the name of the company itself. Once a domain is purchased, no one else will be able to use that same domain.\nAnother beneficial service that is offered is a free website builder. Once the domain name is purchased, a website will have to be set up and formatted in order to attract customers and other individuals to the site and to provide them the information and services that they need. A website builder provides a way to customize a site without any hassle and without learning any code.\nWhat Are the Benefits of Using a Website Builder?\nA free website builder is a fabulous solution for both large and small businesses as well as for individuals. First, it will save hundreds to thousands of dollars on not having to hire a graphic designer. Second, there will be no intricate website coding to learn because website builders provide a variety of templates that can be customized with colors, banners and graphics. Third, a Twin Cities Web hosting company will provide all the professional support and customer service that one needs while building a site.

With this service, anyone can create a unique and memorable website that will attract traffic from around the world. |
If you weren’t around for those days, this entire feature probably seems a bit silly. But for those of us who remember seeing a gold Zelda or a red Doom, there was a special, intangible moment of joy in seeing something stick out from all the other games. Collected here are all the specially colored carts I could recall, beginning with the Atari 2600 and ending with today’s DVD case equivalents.\nStandard color: Almost 100% of the machine’s carts were black, and are perhaps better known for their all-or-nothing cover art. Sometimes they were elaborate pieces of art, others a simple bit of text printed on a plain label.\nSpecial color: Nintendo’s two Donkey Kong games took the opposite path and went for white instead of standard black, though to be fair all of Coleco’s Atari games were white. So it’s only sort of special, as that means there are several white carts instead of just one or two.\nStandard color: That wonderful, wonderful grey. If you were age 5-20 in the ‘80s or early ‘90s, you handled countless carts that looked exactly like this.\nSpecial color: A dazzling gold Legend of Zelda immediately set it apart from every other game on the market, let alone the NES. When struck by sunlight it seemed to radiate energy like the Triforce itself, a feat that managed to make the lifeless plastic feel as integral to the Zelda experience as the groundbreaking gameplay.\nOh yeah, there were plenty of unlicensed, unofficial NES games that snuck out to the market inside of ugly and/or oddly colored carts. Color Dreams favored a pale blue, Camerica attempted to ape Zelda with its gold and silver carts while the oh-so-popular American Video Entertainment stuck with black.\nNext page: Sega Genesis, Game Boy, Super NES and more! |

8 May 2006 in Academia, Culture, Ethics, Humanities, Rhetoric.\nCheating is also used in many different ways. For example, in computer science cheating in a computer science class was much more frowned on by the other students than, say, cheating in a gen-ed economics class.\nCheating also provides a little control for the student over their curriculum – I wish I had been able to cheat in my discrete math class, because I know now the same thing I knew then – that I was never, ever, ever going to use anything from that class, ever.\nCheating doesn’t give you any control over your curriculum. If anything, it gives you some control over what your grades look like in your official record, but that’s not the same thing.\nYour point about who decides what is useful is a good one, and worth considering further.\nWhen I was a student, and there were few humanities courses that utilized the information on the internet, information was hard to find, and “research” meant spending time in the library, looking at tables of contents and indices of rows and rows of books. And the assignments I had to do — library scavenger hunts, annotated bibliographies, reading big comprehensive books — reflected the fact that the information my professors wanted me to find was rather difficult to come across.\n…And what’s even harder is teaching students to be critical of themselves. And even harder still is getting students to integrate knowledge (both personal and objective) and synthesize new knowledge.\nBut I think the most critical incentive to keep people from cheating is not putting so much emphasis on grades! In this capitalistic society, we tend to like a quantifiable, neatly packaged number… for everything. Without going on a complete communist-leaning diatribe of capitalism, I think this is an issue to be concerned about.\nHearing stories about how cut-throat students of large universities are (marking extra spaces on scannable test sheets) makes me grateful that I did not go to one of those large big-name schools.\nWe are under the illusion that people earn and deserve the grade they get. That unchallenged assumption sickens me to the point that I want to vomit. Cheating is a perfect example of how this idea is a myth.\nWould I hire a B- student if I owned a business? Perhaps. If the student worked honestly through school, tried the hardest, was committed, and retained the skills and knowledge needed. What good is a grade if it wasn’t deserved or earned? And what good is knowledge if the only motivation to attain it is the black mark on a piece of paper?\nI’m not saying this only because I am a A’s and B’s student, but also because I am a good student (I hope). I don’t get B’s because I am less competent than the straight-A students. I am just less efficient when it comes to anything timed. Does this mean I learn less? No.\nI think I learn more. I don’t work for a grade. I work to learn.\nI once came across a university in which the professors didn’t give out letter grades — instead, they gave out credit hours.\nThat is, if you did all the work and satisfied expectations, you got 3 credits. If you did extra work, put a lot of extra effort into the class, you could earn up to 6 credits. If you only did part of the work, you’d earn only 2 or 1 credits — or none. If I taught at a school like that, I’d have to make the syllabus a bit more modular. It would be a challenge in a skills-based course, but I could imagine a news writing course in which students who want 5 or 6 credits could complete their news writing exercises early and then spend the 2nd half of the term working as editors, coaching the less-accomplished students along.\nI’m on a committee that reviews borderline applications — that is, the student doesn’t quite meet SHU’s expectations for grades or SAT scores. So we look closely at how challenging their courses are, whether their grades show a steady path upwards or downwards over their high school career, what they write about in their application essay (please, folks, if you write about how much you want to play your favorite sport, at least mention your academic aspirations too), and the strength of their letters of recommendation.\nIn some cases, employers want to hire someone who’s ready to step right into a job with parameters that are carefully laid out. Teachers, nurses, etc. I don’t see you fitting into a box like that, Evan, but I’ve worked with you long enough that I know your strengths and have very strong feelings about how your contributions affect the classroom.\nI don’t know where I’m going with this comment because I’m sick and shouldn’t be blogging… but this time of year, it’s refreshing — and necessary — to remember that grades are a tool that we use; they signify value, but they are not valuable in and of themselves. |

Spanning eight albums of steaming spiritual jazz, from his 2001 debut Think With Your Heart to 2012’s Suite of the East, Omer Avital brings the rich melodies and churning rhythms of his Israeli homeland to music that makes audiences erupt in shouts, impromptu dances, and emotional applause.\nSpanning eight albums of steaming spiritual jazz, from his 2001 debut Think With Your Heart to 2012’s Suite of the East, Omer Avital brings the rich melodies and churning rhythms of his Israeli homeland to music that makes audiences erupt in shouts, impromptu dances, and emotional applause. As Avital has continued to study composition, taking two years off in the early ’00s to embrace classical European, Middle Eastern, and North African music, his own music has grown more powerful, more deeply felt, and more inspired. New Song is the latest document of his travels.\nNew Song begins with the deceptively gentle “Hafla,” its piano, trumpet, and saxophone spiraling skyward over a lithe funk groove. It’s a subtle introduction to a determined record that is rich in ethnic rhythms.\nWhat are some of the specific rhythms you play on New Song?\nThat’s a malfouf rhythm in “Hafla.” In Arabic, “hafla” means “to rap.” It can also mean food. It’s like the “3” part of a 3:2 clave in Cuban music. A lot of music in Africa and Asia is based on this simple rhythm in 4. It provides that rolling rhythm.\n“Tsafdina” is like a trance at a midnight rave, while “Moroc” recalls Jimmy Garrison’s low-slung rhythms. What rhythms are you playing on those tracks?\nThe rhythm in “Tsafdina” is like a Moroccan gnawa. You usually hear it performed on something that sounds like a bass, but it’s actually a gimbri, an African instrument played by the Gnawa tribes. The gimbri is practically a bass instrument with two gut strings and one sympathetic string. It’s played for hours in ritual and healing ceremonies. “Tsafdina” is like a trance. It really connects to Coltrane’s music and to Yusef Lateef; all jazz has that trance element to it.\nWe use a traditional Moroccan Berber rhythm in “Maroc.” It’s a 6/8 African rhythm, like all the Afro-Cuban music. It’s coming from that tribal, ecstatic music that is connected to African-American churches, as well.\nYour playing has a Mingus-like, bassistas- leader quality. But in this style of music, leading must also require a specific technique.\nFor this music, technique is about feeling. I also play oud, and that style is also a specific thing. But Jimmy Garrison used to do it naturally, as did Ahmed Abdul-Malik and Charlie Haden, too. Those guys had that feeling; they created that buzzing sound. It’s more Eastern. Once you get into that, it’s about open strings and vamps and keeping that buzzing sound.\nHow do you assimilate and adapt these different styles within your music, make them your own, and make it all so passionate?\nThe process works like this: You try to assimilate, you try to put it inside, and sometimes it doesn’t work. Then all of a sudden it will happen. It’s hard to control, so you have to be serious about everything you do. I don’t force things on other genres just to be special. You learn the music, and the meeting place for it all has to be authentic. And still, it’s mysterious.\nFrom the fiery internal conflict of Cream to the brothers-in-arms bond of ZZ Top, every power trio has its own driving force. |
This book aims to help people manage coral reefs and other coastal ecosystems; especially to solve problems that flow from nearby catchment (watershed) areas. Such catchment areas may be adjacent to the coral reef, or include areas a long way away and outside the jurisdiction and control of the coastal manager. This book introduces ways to reduce some of that damage through cooperation with people and industries upstream, based on the experiences of many coastal managers around the world. |

Police in eastern Pennsylvania have charged five college students and a high school student in an alleged scheme to illegally access an online system to change high school grades.\nPottsville police allege that the students used a teacher’s password to gain access to Classroll.com, an online classroom assessment and instructional management system.\nAuthorities allege that the students logged on to change 10 students’ assignment grades. But detective Steve Guers says there is no evidence that any high school students other than the one charged sought to have their grades changed. In fact, Guers says the grades of the other students were lowered, not raised. |

A billion people per day get their online news through Facebook and with this in mind the social media behemoth has released Facebook Instant Articles to make news articles easier to access.\nFacebook is introducing “Instant Articles”, which will give news organisations the chance to create interactive content which is much faster to load and simpler to read, especially via a mobile device.\nThis is attractive for firms keen to get their content in front of young audiences, but they will also be wary of handing even more gravitas to the social network.\nBBC, Buzzfeed, The Guardian, National Geographic and New York Times will all try out the system which means their articles will be hosted on Facebook's servers. This means Instant Articles will appear without the user having to wait as they follow links.\nWith immediacy being the imperative factor in the modern mobile world, Facebook thinks the most important aspect is speed.\nIt can take as long as eight seconds for a news article to load on a phone under the existing system.\nIn demo form, a National Geographic article filled the screen at once, and has photos which can be "liked" individually, embedded videos that autoplay, pop-out charts and maps. Facebook will provide publishers with the tools to create this engaging content.\nSome companies may use those tools to make tailored content for Instant Articles but news organisations will want to experiment to see if their traffic will improve. Facebook seems confident it will, and says they will also get 100% of the revenue from any adverts that they have sold.\nMedia groups have watched their traffic from the social network ebb and flow with every change - one day stories can be filling timelines, the next they've disappeared without trace.\nSo the Instant Articles experimenters are treading carefully. An executive at one media organisation said it was difficult to resist getting involved in anything that would put your content on the phones of the social network's users.\nFacebook, like Google, has always insisted that it is just a technology platform, not a media giant. With its newsfeed algorithm acting as an editor, that has long been a difficult argument to sustain, and now that it will be hosting news articles on its servers it is harder still.\nFacebook is already richer than any traditional media company - and with that wealth comes ever greater power over how its audience finds out about the news.\nAt the moment Instant Articles is only avilable by application (which can be done here: http://instantarticles.fb.com/) but we suspect that after initial testing you will be able to use it much like the LinkedIn Publisher.\nHow do you think this will change things for publishers and social media marketers? Let us know in the comments below.\nApple Bot confirmed. Is an Apple Search Engine in the pipeline? |
Definition of secondary ring in The Network Encyclopedia.\nOne of the two rings used in Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) networks to interconnect stations on the network. FDDI is a dual-ring topology networking architecture based on a token-passing access method. The secondary ring usually sits dark (unused), except when a fault occurs on the primary ring, in which case the network reconfigures itself to make use of the secondary ring to wrap around the fault. Because the data travels on the secondary ring in the opposite direction that it was traveling on the primary ring, when it’s put to use, the secondary ring reroutes data back the way it came, thus avoiding the problem spot. The dual-ring configuration provides FDDI with a degree of fault tolerance - if a computer or cable on the primary ring goes down, the secondary ring is put to use, working in conjunction with the portion of the primary ring that isn’t broken. This feature is known as a self-healing capability and is performed when the stations on both sides of the link concentrator reconfigure themselves when a failure occurs in the link (due to a cable break, a loose connector, or some device failure).\nThe FDDI specification allows the length of the two rings to reach up to 200 kilometers, with up to 1000 attached stations. However, since the secondary ring is usually used for redundancy purposes, a maximum of 500 stations is allowed on an FDDI network. Repeaters are needed every 2 kilometers around the rings.\nRun the FDDI primary ring and secondary ring along different physical paths to make your FDDI network even more redundant. If an accident or disaster affects one of the rings, it might not affect the other. |

StarWars.com has released a new Top 10 video list for you to watch. This list highlights the ten best sound effects that have been used in the films. The sound effects used in these movies are some of the coolest that have ever been created; they are iconic and very recognizable to anyone that has seen the Star Wars saga. There's a lot of work that went into developing them. The video points our how some of these sound effects were made.\nIn this installment, we’re picking the galaxy’s greatest sound effects, from the destructive to the delightful. For this list, we're focusing on the best audible inventions from the Star Wars films only, ranking them on memorability, originality, and impact.\nTo watch the previously released Top 10 list from StarWars.com, click here.\nWeird. Friendly. Funny. The tauntaun’s gentle grunts come from an Asian sea otter, which was pitched down just a little to make it sound familiar yet strange. Plus, it’s really, really fun to impersonate.\nThe Imperial probe droid is the sound of the Empire watching you, and it’s totally unnerving. Mixing a steady, ominous hum with distorted robotic chatter, the end result is a sound effect that’ll both scare you and let you know it’s time to pack up and leave.\nFirst, there’s nothing. Then, a very, VERY big boom. Sound designer Ben Burtt developed an “audio black hole” for Jango Fett’s seismic charges, where the sound of the explosion is slightly delayed after ignition. The result is powerful — both visually and audibly.\nWhen you think of speed, power, and personality, odds are you don’t think about an electric tooth brush. But when you mix it with recordings of cars and boats, tweak the tones a bit you get the bombad sounds of a podracer. An effect so cool, even the crashes sound awesome! Music to our ears.\nWhen a voice inspires this many impressions, you know it’s a classic. Here’s how Chewbacca’s memorable growls and grunts came to be. You said it, Chewie.\nHow do you create a futuristic, fun, and dangerous sounding gunshot from a galaxy far, far away? Take one hammer. Slam it against radio tower cables, add a touch of bazooka, And voila — you have yourself a blaster! A sound so nice, these guys used it twice.\nR2-D2 expresses joy, sorrow, and every other human emotion. And he makes us feel them, too. The lovable astromech's voice is magical — a brilliant combination of organic and electronic sounds — and it’s a big reason we love this overweight glob of grease.\nHarsh, icy, and menacing. The TIE fighter scream was another result of Ben Burtt’s studio wizardry. Using an electronically stretched out elephant howl the TIE fighter scream remains synonymous with the tyranny of the Empire.\nAn inhale. An exhale. A defining characteristic for the saga’s central figure. Darth Vader’s mechanical breathing illustrates darkness, tragedy, and mystery. It’s the most haunting sound in Star Wars, and one that has become iconic.\nIt sounds elegant, it sounds majestic, and it sounds like nothing else. The Jedi weapon was the first sound created by Ben Burtt for the original Star Wars, mixing the motors of an old projector with feedback from a TV tube. In the end, a galaxy far, far away just wouldn't be the same without the lightsaber’s powerful ignition hiss and graceful hum. That’s why we rank it #1. |
Want to build a sharp resume? Follow these tips.\nhttps://www.chase.com/news/082817-crafting-your-resume resume, first job, how to A young woman works on her laptop in her sunny home office area. A young woman works on her laptop in her sunny home office area. 09/01/17 A young woman works on her laptop in her sunny home office area.\nA resume is the first step to your career. Here's how to ace yours.\nThe following article is part of "The Path," a series presented by JPMorgan Chase that helps young people in their first jobs.\nWhen Max Caldwell noticed SurveyMonkey at his campus recruiting fair, he knew he wanted to apply for a sales job with the Bay Area tech company. The University of California, Santa Cruz, economics graduate made sure to leverage his previous internship experience at an electronics company, and make it relevant to the SurveyMonkey job he wanted. The result: a resume that demonstrated sales performance using specific growth numbers.\nThe strategy worked. In fact, Caldwell's resume was such a hit that he used it again when he applied for his current job at a graphic design company.\nWhat if the only college work experience you've had is working at an ice cream shop every summer? That's totally fine. There are still ways to incorporate numbers in your resume to weave an honest, convincing narrative—and get the job you want. “Emphasize positions of responsibility. If you were a cashier and handled money," Caldwell says, "that can be something that's very valuable, especially if there's some level of progress you can tell a story around."\nKeep it short, advises Devin Graham, campus recruiting associate at JPMorgan Chase. "Sure, you can have tighter margins to write more, but don't include things that aren't absolutely necessary," she says.\nThere's no need to include an objective statement on your resume, because the goal is obvious: to find a job. You can also leave out every class you've ever taken, as well as any details about high school, says Robynn Storey of Storeyline Resumes. Photos on resumes are generally unnecessary.\nIf your resume is for a tech job, include skills in which you excel. Fluency in other languages may help, too. "Knowing if a candidate is fluent in French or Italian or Spanish helps us because that might be an asset in some of our roles," Graham says. Be sure to include internships and summer jobs you have had.\nAdd a splash of color by outlining your interests, Graham suggests, because they can serve as conversation starters when you get to the interview stage. "Including your interest in International Travel or Harry Potter, for example, is a way to make yourself memorable in a stack of resumes," Graham says.\nFirst-generation college students should note that on their resumes because it gives hiring managers added perspective on who you are.\nImage might not be everything, but it's certainly important. Including a link to your LinkedIn profile on your resume is a smart idea for a first job, especially in finance or tech, Graham says. But remember that some potential employers will check other social media profiles. So some proactive scrubbing is advised. Pictures of partying, for example, are a bad idea. Be careful about social media posts that might be interpreted as too politically-charged. The easiest solution? Keep all your social media pages private.\nA major in physics or music doesn't disqualify you from a job in finance or tech, especially if you've shown interest in related activities. "If you went to an interesting coding boot camp or leadership summit that is relevant to the expertise we're looking for, that's good to see," Graham says. There are many campus events that companies like JPMorgan Chase host. Participating in them and documenting such activity on your resume is an effective way to convey interest to recruiters, and hiring managers.\n"Not one thing is more important than the other. If you don't have an internship it's not a big deal, you might be able to play up something else."\n"When they don't have a lot of experience, young people often get caught up in building a resume full of clichés," Storey says. "Almost everybody says they're a hard worker." In your resume, show how you've proven that you're a hard worker, and the best candidate for the job. Leadership roles in planning committees or at other jobs and internships narrate the story without platitudes that can fall flat.\nCover letters are quickly becoming a relic, so it's okay to dump them, unless a company specifically asks for one. In some cases, companies may require pre-recorded interviews, which will still allow you to make your case through video, but through a set of focused answers.\nIn the end, think of your resume as a college admissions package, Graham advises. "Not one thing is more important than the other. If you don't have an internship it's not a big deal, you can definitely play up something else."\nUltimately, she says, your resume's job is to make a convincing case that you're the right person for the position.\nInterested in launching your career at JPMorgan Chase?

My TED Talk about the role humans play in the digitization game!\nHalf of the jobs today did not exist 20 years ago - at the beginning of the digital revolution. And now, as we enter the next stage of technolgical growth. the half-life of our jobs will be cut in half again. Exponential computing power and intelligent algorithms drive human productivity into another dimension and new technologies disrupt long established business models before lunch. How come only a small digital elite sees the potential while the majority of people is either afraid, ignorant or overconfident when it comes to our the digital future? The answer is deeply routed in our middle class intellectual way of thinking of how to educate our children and how to live a successful life. It is not the technology but our mindsets that threaten our future wellbeing.\nThe challenge is to disrespect those traditional middle class values, throw our outdated career concepts over bord and encourage our talents to be more entrepreneurial. We need to start now. We need to start encouraging people to become leaders and change the game. We have to enable people to be more gritty. To be more persistent. To take responsibility for themselves. Then they will learn by themselves and master change. |
The suffering just never ends with this show. Still, it definitely felt like there were a lot of cool things going on in this episode. Most of all, I like the idea that Rintarou had to literally be brought into the future to see things firsthand to truly understand the gravity of it. I'm really looking forward to seeing where this goes.\nWell, I was wondering how the series would show the World War apocalypse, and I'm totally fine with how the series did it. Seeing the older versions of the characters was really cool.\nI'm curious about how the mechanics of the time leap machine worked in this scenario. Maybe I'm just forgetting something about the time leap machine that was explained in the original series. Based on what we see in this episode, it sounds like the time leap machine sends a copy of Rintarou's mind to a different timeline, rather than outright sending his mind. Given how Amadeus worked, it makes sense.\nFuture Rukako was really awesome, and I liked how his story ended up progressing. I wasn't expecting him to be such a badass.\nI wasn't a huge fan of seeing Rukako die, especially given how little he tends to contribute in the present day. But I will admit that his final lines were really good. The fact that he never truly felt like he deserved to be a lab member was pretty heartbreaking.\nYou broke time the last time you tried this, man. You sure about this? |

After posting the previous day’s travels, we headed out to breakfast at the Cracker Barrel near the hotel, then headed back to Matt’s apartment to pick him up so I could get the nickel tour of the Florida State campus, and Brian could hit the bookstore to pick up some FSU merchandise. The campus is impressively big, but modern. It felt like it was bigger than the Boston College campus, but then, BC’s campus is tri-level, and I spent most of my time in middle campus.\nAnd then we brought Matt back to his apartment, and it was time to hit the road. Brian had plotted a route that was mostly back roads to take us into western North Carolina.\nWe started on Route 27 out of Florida, and into Georgia. Nice road; for the most part we were able to maintain a reasonable speed, but it still had tons of farms and scenery. At one point we saw a sign for a general store; we stopped, and it was like something out of the thirties.\nEventually, we skirted Atlanta on the interstate, passing by Marietta, where my Aunt Dot used to live. If she were still around, we definitely would have stopped.\nDuring the afternoon, we passed through a corner of Tennessee, ending in Asheville, North Carolina.\nThe only hitch was that the whole day, I was burping up breakfast. Damn you, Cracker Barrel. By the time we got to the motel, I was tired and slightly achy all over, and uninterested in dinner. I sent Brian off to get something to eat, and fell into bed.\nFortunately, the hotel had a free breakfast, and was able to to have avoid fried food for breakfast the next morning. Feeling somewhat better, we set off for Virginia via the Blue RidgeParkway, after making an abortive attempt to see the Biltmore Estate, and discovering that it was massively overpriced.\nThe scenery was gorgeous. There are overlooks all along, and we stopped at several. At one overlook, we took a short hike up to a mountaintop overlook. We drove up to the top of Mount Mitchell. the tallest mountain east of the Mississippi, even though from it, you can see another mountain that looks taller.\nAfter the rangers departed, we took a look at the time, and decided it was time to make up some time. We got off the parkway, and headed up to Waynesboro for the night.\nFriday was the last day on the road. We skipped breakfast, as my stomach was not in a stable state, and headed onto the Skyline Drive, bound for Gettysburg.\nWe spent an hour or so on the Skyline Drive. It’s gorgeous. At one point, we saw a deer, and another, a bear cub.\nWe would have liked to have spent longer on Skyline Drive, but we needed to get to Gettysburg reasonably early. We spent some time on local Virginia roads, where we saw the Shenandoah River, and then switched to the Interstate to get to Gettysburg.\nWe got there around noontime, and stopped at the visitor center, where we saw a movie about the battle, and saw a huge cyclorama of the battle. Then we did an abbreviated version of the self-driving tour.\nGettysburg surprised me. First off, Gettysburg was and is an actual town, with an existence apart from the battle. The battle happened because the town roads were there. So when you do the self-driven tour, you drive out of the visitor center, past a huge cemetery (the townspeople were the ones who got stuck dealing with all the dead and wounded), into the downtown, past McDonalds and insurance offices, and then you pass some older houses, take a left and you’re on Confederate Road, where the Confederate troops were massed.\nI was surprised by how big the battlefield was. The field the Confederates had to cross was huge, and the rock formations the Union troops were defending from were tall, and afforded a good view of the approaching troops. I don’t understand how Lee possibly thought he had a chance.\nGettysburg is a place where you could spend a lot of time if you wanted to, but we were just about out of time. We drove around the battlefield for an hour or so, sometimes getting out, but for the most part just looking, without stopping to read the markers. We were done for the day by 3, when we started the eight hour trip back home.\nOverall, I really enjoyed the trip, gastric issues aside. For me, it was kind of a reconnaissance trip — I bought the bike to do some touring, and I was taking mental notes along the way. Hopefully, I’ll pass by these ways again.\nWe made the second half of the trip into Florida yesterday, traversing North and South Carolina, and Georgia on I95 before crossing into Florida and heading west along he panhandle into Tallahassee.\nI was struck by how many tall straight evergreens there were growing along the highway. I knew lumber had to come from somewhere, but it clearly didn’t come from the maples and oaks I’m accustomed to in New England. These grew straight and tall, and while they had branches growing off the sides, they didn’t really have crotches where the tree splits in two and then splits again.\nAs we were going through Georgia, we ran into thunderstorms. At one point, as we were approaching the storms, I could see an industrial complex way off in the distance under heavy dark clouds and shrouded in mists. Then, further along, we got into the storms themselves and saw lightning pounding the ground off to our sides.\nWe got to Matt’s apartment around 5:45. We met his roommate and girlfriend, then checked in before taking them all out to dinner. They seemed very nice, and we hung out with them for a while afterwards before heading back to the motel.\nWe’re running a little early this morning; as someone forgot to turn off his alarm. After breakfast, we’ll head back over to get the nickel tour of the campus before starting to head back north.\nToday was the first day of the road trip. Fundamentally, the purpose is to get my nephew Matt back to school in Florida; the plan is to get down there as rapidly as possible, then backroad it back.\nWe left Canton around 5:30 this morning, and drove through steadily straight through to the first exit in New Jersey, where we stopped for a coffee, fuel and bathroom break, then continued on until lunch in northern Virginia around 2, and then continued pretty much straight on until we got here in Fayettesville North Carolina. It’s been all highway driving the whole time, and most of it on I-95.\nWe managed to dodge a bullet just before lunch — we passed an overturned tanker truck that had tipped over coming onto the highway. It must have just happened when we passed it — there were people stopped there, but traffic hadn’t backed up very far.\nWe’ve passed through a couple of torrential downpours on the way down, and another one greeted us coming out of dinner.\nTime to head for bed for another day of driving tomorrow. The goal is to be in Florida by the end of the day.\nI’ve been thinking about picking up a new watch for a while now, and I finally pulled the trigger about a month ago. Surprise, it’s not an Apple Watch.\nI’ve admired the look of classic watches for a while, but I’ve had digital watches for a long time — since at least my one hour photo days, where it was essential to log the exact time a roll of film came in and what time it was due, and I’ve gone through a succession of cheap Timex and Casio digital watches.\nBut at the same time, I’ve started to find myself admiring the looks of analog watches, especially the ones with biggish dials and metal bracelets. At the same time, I’ve been aware of the Apple watch, but I don’t really care for the looks of it, and there’s nothing about the functionality that I find compelling.\nI started looking a little more seriously at watches the beginning of the summer, and when the battery on my last watch died, decided it was time.\nI wanted a chronograph style watch, preferably with Arabic numbers, with a metal bracelet. I was willing to go moderately expensive, but not too expensive. So on a Sunday afternoon, after comparing prices online, I went over to Macy’s to take a look at watches. I ended up with a Tissot Chrono XL.\nIt was surprisingly heavy when I tried it on – much heavier and substantial than the watches I’d been wearing. I was a little afraid I’d get tired of the weight, but I decided to go for it anyway. I’m glad I did. I love the way this thing looks. It just looks and feels classy, and I quickly got used to the weight of it.\nMoving from a digital to analog watch has been interesting. First of all, when I looked in the box, there were no instructions, just a catalog of other Tissot watches. Why?? I’ve just spent a lot of money on a watch, I’m not going to get another one right away. I needed to find out how to set it and how to use the chronograph, not peruse their history.\nI was worried that I’d forgotten how to quickly tell time, but that’s been a non-issue. It’s been interesting though, that I now perceive time on the left side of the face to be much more about time before the hour than time after the hour — for example, in the photo above, it more obvious that it’s 20 to 3 than 2:35, as it would be with a digital watch.\nI haven’t had to really time anything yet, so I haven’t really used the chronograph functions thoroughly. It did take me a while to find the the functions to reset the hands to their starting position — and it was a bit of a surprise to find that the “seconds” hand is on the bottom-most dial, not the main sweep second hand, which is for the chronograph. And I am finding that the while the hands do glow in the dark, they don’t glow all that brightly, and at that light level, my eyes don’t see that sharply anymore.\nBut overall, I’m happy with having a really nice watch for a change.\nI got a text from my brother Brian last week asking if I’d like to join Pam and him on a trip to Martha’s Vineyard that Thursday. Even though it’s close by, I haven’t been to the Vineyard since I was a teenager.\nWe took the ferry from Woods Hole over to Vineyard Haven, one of the seven towns comprising Martha’s Vineyard. The weather was perfect – sunny, dry, slightly breezy. The island is about seven miles off the coast of Massachusetts, and the trip takes about 45 minutes each way. The view from the ferry was great, especially coming into Vineyard Haven Harbor, passing tons of boats on the way in.\nOnce the we arrived, Brian rented a bright red Jeep for the day. We put the roof panels in the back, and headed off around the island.\nThe first town we passed through was Oak Bluffs, with its gingerbread cottages and old Victorian hotels. Then we passed the beaches on the long sand spit on the way to Edgartown. Once in Edgartown, we got out and walked around town for a bit, and had lunch. Then we headed west across the island, through West Tisbury and Chilmark, to Aquinnah, where we got out to see Gay Head.\nGay Head is a clay cliff on the western end of the island; it’s one of the few pre-glacial landforms on the island. The name comes from the fact that parts of the cliff are reddish. There is a lighthouse there, and an outlook over the cliff; we got out and walked around a bit, and then it was time to head back to Vineyard Haven for the 5:00 ferry back.\nWe had a great time. It was nice doing the sightseeing thing, it was good to spend time with the two of them, and you couldn’t ask for better weather. The trip over and the scenery there got the photographic juices flowing.\nSide Note: I’ve always been fond of the polarization effect in my pictures – a polarizer will reduce surface glare, increasing color saturation, and depending on the position of the sun, can really deepen the blue of the sky. For this trip, since it was sunny all day, I put the filter on at the beginning of the day, and never took it off. A lot of the pictures are stronger for it, but I’m also wondering if I’m overdoing it a bit. The Gay Head pictures in particular show a strong polarization effect, which borders on the unrealistic at times. And in the pictures where there isn’t much benefit to the polarization effect (shooting into the sun, for example) I’ve still picked up a slight cyan cast.\nSomething to think about next time I’m shooting land or sea scapes.\nI first went to the Quechee Balloon Festival in 2012, with my brother and nephew Matt, who were accompanying one Matt’s friends and father to the festival. I managed to get a balloon ride, and liked it enough to do it again with them the following year.\nSince then, they haven’t gone again, and I’ve wanted to go back. I figured this year would be a good year to combine a balloon flight with a short motorcycle tour. So I booked a flight for Friday night, and made motel reservations for Friday and Saturday, in case of weather trouble that would require re-booking the flight.\nI left home around noon on Friday, and ran into heavy traffic in Boston and on Interstate 93 up through New Hampshire. By the time I was on I-89, I’d lost over an hour, and didn’t dare switch over to the side roads.\nI did eventually get to the motel barely in time to check in, bring the bags up to the room and switch my boots for sneakers, before heading off in search of the festival grounds.\nDespite being told to be there by 5 (which is why I was hurrying), they didn’t start processing reservations until 5:30. Finally, after signing off on a lot of paperwork, I got my boarding pass, and met Katherine, from the crew, who took me down to the balloon.\nMy pilot was Walt Rudy, of Aloft Horizons based in Ohio, and his crew chief was his wife Deb. I met my fellow passengers, and together, we helped get the balloon set up.\nThe balloon envelope is stored tightly packed inside a big canvas bag. It has to be pulled out to its full height on the ground, unbound, and then spread out flat on the ground.\nIn the meantime, the basket is laid sideways on the ground, and the envelope fastened to it. Then it was time to wait for the wind to drop, and the festival’s “balloonmeister” to give the ok to launch. It took a while for the winds to abate, but finally we got the go ahead.\nThe first step in getting a balloon aloft is to “cold inflate” it. The mouth of the balloon is held open by a pair of people — I was one — while fans blow air into the balloon. First there is a ripple of a bubble, and soon enough, while still lying on the ground, it’s nearly its full round shape.\nNext, the pilot starts to heat the air, first with a couple of short bursts from the burner, then with longer ones. The envelope develops lift pretty quickly, and starts to pull the basket to a standing position. At that point, the three of us piled in — there is no graceful way to do it–and we sort of “idled” for a moment while Walt got the lay of the land. He added just enough heat to get us just off the ground, and his ground assistants walked the basket a few steps to get clear of our neighbors, and then he blasted the burners again and we were off.\nApproaching a tree top. We went right through it.\nWe were probably the fourth or fifth balloon to head out. All the balloons headed south-easterly, over the Quechee Dam, Simon Pearce factory and covered bridge, and toward the Ottauquechee River. Walt tried to drop us down over the river, hoping to pick up a current of air, but the wind didn’t cooperate. We did float over the Quechee Gorge and past the bridge. At various points we could see our reflection, or the reflection of another balloon below us.\nFloating in a hot air balloon is very different from flying in an airplane. You’re in the open, for one thing, and you can feel the open air around you. You can turn around and look in any direction. It was crystal clear, and we had the setting sun behind us, so the colors ahead were vibrant, while the balloons behind were backlit. And it’s mostly quiet and serene, punctured by the roar of the burners when it’s time to gain or maintain altitude.\nWe flew over a bend in the river, and a few farms. At one point, we passed over a stable, and Walt called down to the horses. It was peaceful and quiet, just the four of us in the basket, and the other balloons around us as we floated over the forest.\nAround the half hour mark, Walt was starting to look for places to land. We would see little oases of flat ground in the middle of the forest. I could see he had his eye on one likely spot, but the winds would not cooperate, so we hopped over a hill, plowing through some tree tops, before he spotted an open field right beside Route 5, and dropped us gently to the ground.\nWe met the homeowners, and their children, who were rather wide-eyed about it. Walt helped them up into the basket so they could get a sense of what it was like, while the envelope deflated. The chase crew arrived only a few moments after we landed, and we had to quickly pack up the balloon – we’d taken off late, and had to get back to the festival for the Glow. As a parting gift, Walt left the homeowners a bottle of champagne, a ballooning tradition.\nAfter the evening flights, the balloons come back to the Festival grounds for the Glow. By this time it’s dark, and the balloons are re-inflated, tethered in a row, and then the pilots fire off their burners in sync to light the envelopes. It’s very pretty.\nAfter The Glow, I helped Walt and his crew pack the balloon back up. It had to be deflated, the envelope bound up and packed into its bag, and the basket put on a platform on the back of the van.\nMy plans for Saturday were pretty loose. I wanted to visit the Simon Pearce glass factory again, and then I intended to simply follow Route 4 West on the motorcycle, and see where it took me. During breakfast, Walt called me and asked me if I could drop off the boarding pass from the night before so he could turn it into the festival.\nMy first stop of the morning was the village of Quechee. There is a dam and a waterfall and a covered bridge there, which I’d flown over the night before. Next to the dam is an old mill, which is now the home of the Simon Pearce store, restaurant and glass factory. They make fine glassware right on the premises. The store is at street level, and the glass factory is at river level.\nOnce I’d picked up a vase for my mother, it was time to hit the road. Route 4 in Vermont is a really nice road for motorcycles — nice scenery, some curvy sections, not too busy, and in reasonable condition. There wasn’t anything in particular I wanted to see, I was just out for the ride.\nSerendipity struck though; as I approached the junction of Route 106A, I saw signs directing me to Plymouth Notch, the birthplace of President Calvin Coolidge. “Why not”, I said, so I followed 106A, a fun road in of itself, to the Coolidge homestead.\nThere’s a small museum, detailing Coolidge’s life, and then you can walk through the village of Plymouth Notch, which, paving aside, is pretty much the way it was a century ago. There is a General Store, operated by his father, the Coolidge Birthplace, which is a small house attached to the back of the store, the house where Coolidge grew up, and where he took the oath of office, and the barn owned by his grandfather, part original and part a restoration. I joined a guided tour and got to see the insides of all these buildings.\nAfter leaving Plymouth Notch, I headed back up to Route 4, and continued to follow it westward, to the fringes of Rutland, where I turned around, and headed back to the Festival.\nWhen I got there, I found Steve and Kathy from the night before were there too, and together we helped get the balloon set up again, and helped this evening’s passengers into the basket. I was also grabbing shots of the other balloons preparing to take off. Deb offered me the chance to join the chase crew, and I accepted. I did have time before we left to get a few more pictures of the festival.\nThe chase crew drives the van to where the balloon lands. With luck — and we were lucky this evening — it will get there just as, or slightly before, the balloon lands. Deb, Walt, and their assistant Katherine are all from Ohio, so we had a local friend of theirs, Tiffany, with us, to navigate the roads. There was a GPS beacon aboard the balloon and Katharine and Tiffany were both tracking it; Tiffany chose the route to get us to where they anticipated the balloon would land. This time they forecast it pretty closely; as we traveled along Route 5 we saw the balloon come over the hill; Deb parked the van, and we got out to run to where the balloon was landing.\nThe first order of business when the balloon touched ground was to get rid of its buoyancy. Walt continued to vent hot air out the top of the balloon, and the ground crew held the basket down. If necessary, the pilot will hover an inch or so off the ground while the crew walks the basket to a more convenient spot. Passengers are not allowed to leave the basket until the pilot says so — to lose the weight of the passenger suddenly could cause the balloon to shoot back up. Once Walt gave the go ahead, we helped the passengers out of the basket.\nOnce the passengers were out, one crew member pulled on a rope attached to the top of the balloon. Gradually, the hot air cooled and escaped, and the envelope settled onto the ground. As it did, the basket was laid on its side, the mouth of the envelope closed, and we started to gather up the fabric of the envelope into a long thick line to drive the rest of the air out. Velcro straps were bound around the envelope at intervals to keep it tidy and compact. Once the envelope was bound up, we got it into its bag. It’s a lot of work, and fortunately the homeowner where the balloon landed helped out. He had a couple of little kids with him and Deb put them to work sitting on top of the envelope as it was put into the bag to drive the air out. Once the balloon is in the bag, we heaved it up into the truck, then hauled the basket up onto a platform on the back of the van and fastened it down.\nOnce everything was packed away, Walt had a short champagne ceremony with the passengers and homeowners, where he told the story of how the Montgolfier brothers invented hot air balloons, and started bringing champagne with them to reassure the people where their balloons were landing that these strange devices were friendly. Story told, he poured out a cup of champagne for everyone, and left a bottle with the homeowners.\nWe then headed back to the festival grounds for the Saturday night Glow. Since takeoff hadn’t been as late as our flight, we had a a little more time to get back and get set back up. Once again I helped get the balloon inflated; once it was up, I walked around to to get some more pictures.\nAfter the glow, I helped pack up the balloon one last time, and then it was time to say goodbye to Walt and Deb, Tiffany and Katherine.\nThe ride back the next day was uneventful. Since I was in no particular hurry this time, I took Route 4 back through New Hampshire. The weather and scenery were great. Route 4 ended at I-93; after a few miles of backed up traffic I got off the interstate and onto Route 3A. While on this road I made an interesting discovery: I was passing along the a river, and I had a nice view of it from the bike, so I stopped to get some pictures of it. I walked back nearly a mile, but found no spot where I had a clear shot of the river; my mind must have stitched together the flashes of the river as I rode by into one continuous vista that didn’t really exist.\nI got home just before four, just in time to run some errands. Overall, I had a great time. I loved being in a balloon again, and it was fun helping out, despite the fact that it’s surprisingly physical work. It was good taking the bike on a longer trip, and hopefully I can work my way up to even longer ones.\nWhen I visited Greenwich last fall, I didn’t plan my trip very well; it was kind of spur of the moment, after starting too late, taking longer than expected at Westminster Abbey, and not being able to get onto the London Eye. I didn’t get down there until about quarter past four — just in time for everything to close. |
Then, from the back of the field, Ireland’s Sinead Jennings (2001 World Champion in the lightweight single) and partner Heather Boyle started to push through from the back of the field. Ireland continued to push and in the close of the race the Irish placed second over the lower rating Australians. Germany, Ireland and Australia move on to the final.\nRow2k have a photograph – Heather’s to the left, Sinead to the right. |

It’s Sternwheel Festival weekend, and any person living within 50 miles of Marietta knows what that means–throngs of people, festival food, live music on the floating stage, dozens of unique sternwheel boats lining the riverbank and of course the fireworks. The best fireworks many of us have ever seen, and promising to be even more jaw dropping for this year’s 40th anniversary. As if those features weren’t enough, there will also be sternwheel races, a classic car show, Friday night’s Merchants & Artists Walk, and numerous other activities scheduled to provide a fantastic weekend.\nSo when you saw a Marketplace scheduled on “Sternwheel Saturday” you may have shaken your head and wondered why. Well, after the positive reception of earlier Marketplaces, we thought “why not?”. Being careful not to detract from the excellent calendar of events coordinated by a hard working group of people, I thought we could offer an additional event to give people one more reason to spend the day downtown. Scheduled from 10-4, the Marketplace will provide a unique shopping venue and a way for residents and visitors alike to experience a bustling outdoor ‘pop-up’ market.\nIf you are hosting out of town guests for the weekend, you probably want them to see the best that Marietta has to offer. There is plenty of time during the day to visit the shops, browse the antique malls, and walk through the Armory lawn among the vendor’s tents. Artists, artisans, bakers and creators—it’s such a pleasure to meet and talk with these talented people. I guarantee you will find something unexpected for yourself or for a gift. Just down the street you’ll find concessions with indulgent treats, non-profits and vendors, and you’ll want to enjoy the music as you await the light show. But from 10-4, we hope you will spend a little extra time treating yourself to the tents and booths of the Marietta Marketplace. It’s our last outdoor event this year, and a long wait until next season!\nAn important part of the Marketplace this Saturday is The Great Food Fight, a food drive with Marietta College student groups collecting for local food pantries. Six groups will compete to collect the most food items, and any person donating will receive a raffle ticket for several prizes. So please, stop by the Armory, enjoy the Marketplace, and help the less fortunate at the same time.\nSee you at the Armory! |
