Working with the governments of the ten towns that comprise our watershed, we were able to improve practices that impacted stormwater run-off. In many cases we provided model ordinances affecting stormwater management, which included parking lot runoff, steep slopes construction, roofline design and effective detention basin design. These ordinances were accepted by many of the towns and made a significant difference to construction practices in our area. We also advocated for no net increase rules pertaining to sewerage emphasizing the importance of solving current problems rather than encouraging future development. The message that we consistently emphasized is that it is better to take some reasonable steps now than have to deal with the much more costly impact of poor policy decisions later on. We never assumed that people will do the right thing unless there is something in it for them, and for our local governments it was all about cost savings.
We also worked at educating the people living in the Watershed. As an example, seminars on rain gardens designed to reduce the flow of stormwater run-off were well attended. Also, at every opportunity we demonstrated the deleterious impact of phosphates on our water supply and we educated people on the phosphate content of dishwasher detergent and fertilizer. Importantly, we were able to demonstrate that using these products contributed to a serious problem with only minor benefit to the individual using the products. Phosphate-free products could also clean dishes and promote green grass. Fortunately, many of our towns had committees charged with improving the environment, and by working with those committees we were able to build support for the use of phosphate-free (or at least reduced) products.
Several environmental groups across the state, recognizing the implications of phosphate loading in our waters due to fertilizer, began lobbying for restrictions on the use and sale of such products. Although not at the forefront of those lobbying efforts we were able to participate and contribute to these statewide efforts, which resulted in a ban of the sale and use of fertilizer containing phosphates. We also believe that our educational work contributed to the size of the constituency favoring a ban. In addition, thanks to consumer pressure many manufacturers have reduced the amount of phosphate in their products and end up using that as a selling point.
As a result of our efforts we have tracked measurable improvements in water quality. Our work continues. There is still much to do; however, I believe we have accomplished enough to share why we feel we had some quantifiable success. In addition to understanding that science, education, and advocacy need to all be pursued if major changes in behavior are going to be realized, we also recognized that you must be prepared to answer the question "What's in it for me?" In trying to change peoples’ behavior you need to reward them when they do change and call them out when they don't. We feel that environmental advocacy without scientific support is not going to be effective, and change will only come with education and the development of political influence.

Redundancy – just the word can strike fear into the heart of everyone who relies on their income to pay their bills each month.
But it’s more than the threat of financial ruin – for many people their “steady” job is part of their identity and losing that security really pulls the rug out from under their feet and leaves them reeling.
Just over three years ago now, I was in that very position. I was happily working as deputy news editor at the local newspapers in my home town when the threat of a major restructure loomed.
But, as it turned out, taking voluntary redundancy was probably one of the best things that has ever happened to me.
My story was recently featured in an article in Reader’s Digest along with two other women who believe redundancy changed their lives for their better.
This is just my part of it, but you can find the complete article here.

Ft Walton Beach front has amongst the best Flea Markets within the place. Loveland is also a ski location with lifts that can accommodate lots of winter people. This can be just an umbrella that features a larger sized canopy which is hung by a curved pole connected to the base that is definitely kept outside of the world with the shade. A patio umbrella need to be neither much too massive nor too compact to the area offered and objective for which you might use it.
Guests are surprised with the jewel toned drinking water plus the unusually pale sand around the beach front. In case you are traveling concerning Portland and Camden on U.S. These parks really are a extend of golden sand, grassy locations and palm trees.
After mass at Dumaguete Cathedral which was just walking distance from JF Obdulia’s Business Inn, we were being on our method to Siquijor by way of a 1 hour Delta Fast Ferry ride. The SIbulan Airport in Dumaguete is approximately two hours absent from Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila.
Should you be available, then the flower really should be positioned at the rear of your ideal ear. When you’ve got the place it’s also wise to create a smaller arbor with creepers covering it in an effort to produce shade in your seating spot.
Patio umbrella lower pole. Another option is to only attach a battery powered system for the base or shaft of the patio umbrella.
Their expenses are properly matched within just the household furniture planet and so are a reliable warehouse for metropolitan kinds. There are various companies focusing on umbrella repair service, or you can repair your industry umbrella your self. The towns of Mindelo on Sao Vincente and Praia on Santiago are regarded for his or her songs. The sunshade is styled in such a manner which the posture may be modified correspondingly by inclining the cover.
When trying to find a bar home furnishings like the bar stool, you should make sure which the substances are durable good enough and it’s temperature resistant that may stand to any weather conditions circumstances since it truly is for out of doors use. Given that the patio household furniture is stored outdoor, treating it with care is critical. Aluminum strap household furniture is produced for puddle facet taking in on account in their water-resistant added benefits.
One can also obtain them in shorelines, gardens, patios etcetera. The fabric of which the solar umbrella is built is unquestionably a topic of apprehension.
Choosing a rose with the abundant amount of clusters and blooms will reward you by using a entire beautiful tree rose. It can be wise to use a guidance that may present sufficient stability while in the circumstances which have been typically expert within the area exactly where it is going to be applied.

Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., called Sunday for President Donald Trump to either prove his claim that President Barack Obama tapped the phones in Trump Tower during last year’s election campaign or drop the accusation.
Sens. Lindsey O. Graham, R-S.C., and Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., formally requested the information last week in a letter to FBI Director James B. Comey and acting deputy attorney general Dana Boente. Trump administration officials have not provided any evidence to back up the president’s claim from earlier this month.
McCain avoided directly criticizing Trump for using Twitter to spread unverified information, but the senator said a serious charge, such as accusing a former president of illegal wiretapping, should not be handled lightly.
“If the allegation is left out there, it undermines the confidence the American people have in the entire way that the government does business,” McCain said.
Several lawmakers, including McCain and Senate Rules Committee Chairman Roy Blunt, R-Mo., have pointed out that Trump could directly ask intelligence officials to corroborate his claim but instead has asked Congress to investigate.
Not all Republicans have been so quick to put the burden of proof on Trump. Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., agreed with Trump that Congress should take control of the investigation to safeguard sensitive intelligence.
“Through a deliberate and careful process of examining all the intelligence at issue here, and then determining with the executive branch what we can declassify, I think the intelligence committees are in the best position to make those decisions,” the senator added.
Mr Mcain – when your “cronies” will release the Russian proof of Trump’s association , not just in pictures like the one of Pelosi with Putin, or NoBama with Putin or all other DemocRATS with Putinn , then you can go after the spying proof.

Chardin's influence on the art of the modern era was wide-ranging, and has been well-documented. Edouard Manet's half-length Boy Blowing Bubbles and the still lifes of Paul Cézanne are equally indebted to their predecessor. He was one of Henri Matisse's most admired painters; as an art student Matisse made copies of four Chardin paintings in the Louvre. Chaim Soutine's still lifes looked to Chardin for inspiration, as did the paintings of Georges Braque, and later, Giorgio Morandi. In 1999 Lucian Freud painted and etched several copies after The Young Schoolmistress (National Gallery, London).

This month’s topic, in celebration of the new website is “What Does Aging Gracefully Mean to You?” I fully embrace the concept of Aging Gracefully and I can break that down by the words.
Let’s start with Aging. Every decade of my life has been better than the previous one. I’ll turn 51 this year and I’m already on pace to make that statement as true for my fifties as it was for my forties. I have every intention of making it true for my sixties as well. Each decade comes with more confidence, more understanding of myself and others, greater dreams and more abilities to make those dreams come true.
Is it realistic to expect I might be saying the same at age 71? I have no idea–I’ll be happy to make it that far.
I don’t have a date for this photo, maybe 1988. I was 26; Grandmother was 93; Mother was 51. Grandmother would live to two months shy of 100, but my mother died at age 68 from complications of diabetes. I have longevity genes, but I’ll have to live my life more like my farmer ancestors and less like my information professional parents if I’m going to get the benefit of them. In spite of the fact that I’m sporting a farmer’s tan in this photo, I had many years of information professional jobs before I started balancing that lifestyle with daily exercise and home-grown, home-cooked foods.
Rosa Parks (Rosa Parks by Wil Mara) lived to age 92. Eleanor Roosevelt (Eleanor Roosevelt by Kem Knapp Sawyer) lived to age 78. Katharine Hepburn (The Private World of Katharine Hepburn by John Bryson and Katharine Hepburn) lived to age 96. In aging gracefully, I would be happy to achieve some part of the courage of Rosa Parks, the leadership of Eleanor Roosevelt, and the passion of Katharine Hepburn.
Aging Gracefully, to me, means seeking opportunities to create and serve at every age.
Watch this space — I’ll link to the blog hop when it’s up and running so you can read what other midlife bloggers have to say about Aging Gracefully.
Joy, what wonderful three women you have chosen as examples. Thanks for helping us remember how much they accomplished throughout their lives.
LOL Love the farmer’s tan. But seriously, love seeing you with your mom and grandma. Great pic. And you are right, in order to benefit from good genes, you still have to eat healthy and exercise. Nice post Joy!
Being happy is at the very least an important foundation for graceful and you look incredibly happy!
I LOVE those photos! And what a great group of women to aspire to — you are already inspiring others!
So true Joy. As I age I start looking at older women and seeing their vitality…or lack of. I often think of my aunt and my father, both died at 70 thru complications from cancer, and think about the steps they could have taken earlier in their lives to prevent these cancers, (or at least mitigate the damage). Testing, no prescription drugs known to be carcinogens, healthy diet, exercise etc. I’m following that myself.
I’m with you Joy. I can’t stop myself from aging, but I can age WELL. I started thinking about this years ago when my “Oma” (Dutch for grandmother) used to tell me: “It’s a great life, if you don’t weaken!” I believe in the power of exercise, healthy diet, and passion. Thanks for shining the light on the wonderful possibilities of age!
Great post and those wonderful ladies are a great inspiration! Cheers to a long life ahead!
I love your three generation photo. And thanks for the book recommendations. I admire all of these women, but I haven’t sought out books about them! This is why I love the blog hops; so much diversity on the same topic.
Great post, love the generational picture.
Beautiful family photo! I love your definition of aging gracefully: creativity and service. Those will surely fill you – and others – with grace.
What a wonderful multigenerational picture. Great book recommends on some great women.
I love that you look at the opportunities ahead instead of dread!
How wonderful to have that photograph and your memories of both your mother and grandmother. And I love your examples of grace, graciousness, gracefulness in the women and books you mention.
Somewhere, I have a picture of myself in my early twenties, my mother at about 50, and her mother in her early 70s – all of us in front of a portrait of my grandmother at 21. I am now the “elder” generation, and keeper of my grandmother’s portrait – always a source of connection, wisdom, and love – and a reminder of a life lived fully and also with enormous grace and strength.
What a wonderful photo! You are right on the money about lifestyle differences making such a difference. I’ve made some changes, but hope I wasn’t too late!
Loved your generation photo. Time goes by so quickly from when we were “the kids” to being the mother and grandmothers of today.
Let’s all hope we live as long as your Grandma and beyond!! What a photo to cherish.
Serving others keeps all of us young…I have taught teens for about 14 years and they keep me young! Good post!
Beautiful family photo, and I love the women you chose as your role model for aging gracefully.
Great photo and a fabulous outlook. Thank you for sharing!
Such lovely women to model yourself after. What a blessing that photo. And what a gracefully done post. Great execution and wisdom.

Hydatid cyst disease is caused by Echinococcus granulosus infection. The liver and lungs are the most frequent locations of E. granulosus infection, whereas 0.5%–2.0% of all cases occur in the musculoskeletal system, of which 50% of cases are spinal hydatid cyst. In the spine, the most common location is the dorsal spine. The authors present a 40-year-old female patient with a paraspinal, dumbbell-shaped hydatid cyst widening the neural foramen. The cyst was successfully removed by an anterior approach through a posterolateral thoracotomy. Previously reported cases of spinal hydatid cysts have been operated through a posterior approach. Benzagmout et al. had reported the first transthoracic excision of hydatid cyst, and ours is the only other case which has been operated similarly. The safety and benefits of this approach with the relevant literature are discussed.
A 40-year-old female presented with back pain for 3 years, with no neurological deficits. A chest radiograph showed a radio-opaque lesion in the right paraspinal area of the mid-zone [Figure 1]. A computed tomography axial image of the thorax showed a cystic lesion causing erosive widening of the right D4–D5 neural foramen [Figure 2]. The lesion was hyperintense on T2-weighted axial images of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging scan of the dorsal spine [Figure 3]. The cyst wall enhanced on contrast injection as noted in the coronal MR images [Figure 4].
The cystic lesion was excised by an anterior approach through a posterolateral thoracotomy. The right thoracotomy was performed through the fifth intercostal space after deflating the right lung using a double-lumen endotracheal tube. The lesion was noted paraspinally just behind the lung. A total excision of the lesion was achieved, and the cavity was irrigated with betadine solution and hypertonic saline, considering the possibility of a hydatid cyst.
The postoperative recovery was uneventful. Histopathology revealed the cyst to show features of hydatid cyst [Figure 5].
At 1-month follow–up, the patient was relieved of back pain. A postoperative MR scan of the dorsal spine after 6 months showed a complete excision of the cyst.
Hydatid disease (echinococcosis) is a worldwide zoonosis produced by the larval stage of the Echinococcus tapeworm. In humans, the two main types of hydatid disease are caused by E. granulosus and Echinococcus multilocularis. Spinal hydatid cysts present with medullary or radicular symptoms, according to their location., However, our patient presented only with back pain without any neurologic deficits. Parvaresh et al. reported a similar dumbbell-shaped hydatid cyst of the spine with widening of the spinal neural foramen, but in their case, spinal involvement of hydatid disease was considered secondary, because the primary lesion was located in the liver, whereas in our case, spinal involvement was primary.
Primary hydatid infestation of the spine without any other systemic involvement can be explained by the direct porto-vertebral venous shunt theory. The disease begins in the extradural area, suggesting that the parasite's embryo is possibly being transported through the porto-vertebral venous shunts.
The differential diagnosis in cystic paraspinal lesions can be lytic metastatic tumors, cystic schwannoma, lateral thoracic meningocele, and neurenteric cyst. We considered neurofibroma as the first differential diagnosis as the lesion was not multiloculated, multiple loculations being more common with hydatid cyst. Hydatid cysts do not have a solid component and tend to invade anatomical cavities. In addition, they do not show contrast enhancement but exhibit a cerebrospinal fluid-like signal intensity on MR imaging.
Location of the lesion, familiarity with surgical approach, surgeon preference, and tentative preoperative diagnosis of the lesion decide the choice of surgical approach. Karakasli et al. have compiled the data of previously operated 13 cases of primary spinal extradural hydatid cyst, all of which had been approached posteriorly. The goal of surgery in hydatid cysts is the complete removal of the cyst without rupture and spillover. Transthoracic approach gives direct access, has less surgical bleeding, and gives a better chance of excision of parasitic cysts without rupture. With accurate planning and careful surgical technique, transthoracic approach is safe and effective.
Hydatid cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of all cystic lesions of the spine so that adequate intraoperative precautions can be taken to prevent spillage. In ventrally located cysts, especially for those in the posterior mediastinum, transthoracic approach is safe and effective. It also provides direct exposure of the lesion, hence minimizing the chances of rupture or spillage.

Tyresö Nyfors, Älbysjön was the selected venue for a crack at night fishing for Zander and arrived at 8pm. in order to secure some baits. A few small Perch were soon picked up on a float fished worm, though the hoped for Roach and Loi were not at first. Immediatly hit a jack Pike on the first cast. A short while later Linda had a lift on her bite indicator, then nothing. An inspection of her bait revealed a badly mauled bait towards the rear, no typical razor cut Pike tooth marks though, rather Perch or Zander the culprit. Fish activity was high with shoals of baitfish began scattering on the surface as they were attacked from below by unseen predators. As darkness fell I had more bites and dropped runs, mangled live baits the result. A small Bream and a two Roach all taken from behind and were scored roughly and crushed towards the tail, feel these baits were hit by Zander which dropped the baits. Then another fish hit on a larger Roach and an exremely powerful fish, surely a big Pike, hooped the rod over after a few moments when it seemed to realize it was hooked. This fish bit through the line, I can only assume the bait swam back over the mainline, was then engulfed and the teeth did the rest. Linda had another bait marked badly before the feeding spell passed and activity dropped off.
A frustrating night yes, but interesting all the same. Figure the problem is too much resistance on the leger rig causing dropped runs, which in itself is a classic sign of Zander, which do not like resistance. Using a heavier lead might well be the answer, the heavier the lead the more static it stays and the fish will pull line through the eye of the lead without dislodging it and feeling resistance. Float fishing with nightlite inserts for visibility might also prove very, very efficient.
A nice perch of around 12oz.
Out to Lidingö in the afternoon, proved to be rather slow as expected, a cold windt day. A few small Bream, Perch and Rudd were taken on the legered worm, the best fish a Perch of about 12oz. Best fish of the day came right at the end of the day when my Rudd livebait was snatched and the bite alarm went into overdrive. A great scrap followed, the fish running really well three times before it was landed and weighed, the fish a Pike of 6lb. 9oz.
Popped down to this site for a morning session after identifying the area as one of Stockholms best Zander venues, though was left thouroughly frustrated by a total lack of small bait fish in the area. I failed to catch a single bait sized fish all morning and had no deadbaits with me, this meant the predators went unfished for all day. My frustration was made even worse when a boat appeared close by and the two anglers aboard caught several Pike into double figures on jerkbaits! With no natural baits caught and no artificial lures in my bag I was, by then, well pissed off!

A 63-year-old Caucasian man presented with multiple asymptomatic papules and nodules clustered on the dorsum of both hands. It started 2.5 years ago as a single papule with more lesions developing subsequently on the dorsal aspect of the right (two lesions) and left (three lesions) hands. On examination, they ranged from 7 to 14 mm in diameter. Individual lesions were soft, mobile, skin-colored with a slightly violaceous hue [Figure 1]a and [Figure 1]b. Hair, nail and mucosae were spared. Clinically, erythema elevatum diutinum was suspected.
An incisional biopsy from one of the nodules showed mild verrucous epidermal hyperplasia and a poorly defined pandermal proliferation of small blood vessels lined by plump endothelial cells, accompanied by fibrosis, spindle cells, and scattered multinucleated giant cells. The latter were irregular and bizarre shaped having scalloped or angular margins, containing multiple nuclei which were either closely aggregated or arranged peripherally in a ring-like fashion [Figure 2]a and [Figure 2]b. A mild perivascular infiltrate of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and mast cells was present. Immunohistochemical stains for dermal dendritic cells (factor XIIIa) highlighted the spindle cells but the multinucleated cells (arrows) remained unstained [Figure 2]c. The macrophage marker CD68 stained the mononuclear and scattered multinucleated cells [Figure 2]d.
Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma is an uncommon entity with a distincte clinical and histopathologic appearance. First described by Smith and Wilson Jones in 1985, barely 150 cases of multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma have been reported till date.
It has a strong female predilection (female:male ratio of 3:1), affecting middle-aged and elderly women. Classically, it presents as slightly reddish, pink or violaceous elevated, dome-shaped or flat-topped papules or nodules. These lesions tend to be grouped over a particular anatomical area predominantly involving the dorsal aspect of the hands, wrists, thighs, and legs. In rare cases, they may involve the mucosa or assume a disseminated or generalized distribution. The lesions tend to be asymptomatic, progress very slowly and persist indefinitely although spontaneous regression may occur in 10% of cases. Clinical differential diagnoses of this condition include Kaposi's sarcoma, acroangiodermatitis, arthropod bites and erythema elevatum diutinum. A skin biopsy is essential for a definitive diagnosis.
Histopathologically, the lesions are characterized by proliferation of capillaries, venules, and small arterioles mainly affecting the upper and mid-dermis. These blood vessels are embedded in fibrotic dermal connective tissue which contain scattered multinucleated giant cells often having irregular, bizarre shapes with scalloped or angular margins. Isolated spindled cells accompany the distinctive multinucleated giant cells. There is also sparse perivascular and interstitial infiltrate containing plasma cells, lymphocytes, neutrophils and almost invariably, large number of mast cells. The immunophenotype is variable but nearly half of the reported cases have shown factor XIIIa positivity and variable CD68 reactivity in the multinucleated giant cells. Other fibromatous and angiomatous proliferations like atrophic vascular dermatofibroma (denser dendritic cell proliferation in whorled or storiform pattern along with thinned dermis) and fibrous papule of the face (telangiectasia of existing blood vessels surrounded by lamellar collagen rather than actual vascular proliferation) may resemble this condition histopathologically.
Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma may be a reactive condition or a true neoplasm; exact pathogenesis is still unclear. Some authors have stressed on the putative role of estrogen receptor α, dermal dendritic cells, and mast cells. It is being increasingly speculated that multinucleate cell angiohistiocytomas and dermatofibromas are closely related dermal dendritic cell proliferations. Unlike dermatofibromas, this condition tends to show an agminated or multifocal clinical distribution.
Given the slow progression and indolent behavior, treatment is not always necessary. They may be surgically excised without any significant risk of local recurrence, if cosmetically unacceptable. Other treatment modalities which have been reported to be effective include argon laser therapy, cryotherapy, intense pulse light, and potentially antihormonal therapy.
Despite the characteristic clinical appearance, histology and distribution, this disorder is rarely considered clinically due to lack of awareness about this entity. Both clinicians and pathologists should be familiar with this entity to reassure affected patients and increase awareness about this unusual condition.

Daisey's reputation as perhaps the finest monologist of his post-Spalding Gray generation (he is just 35 years old) precedes this piece; seeing Daisey on stage for the first time in How Theater Failed America, I now understand how he's attained that reputation and glowingly endorse it. Even though the only instruments he really uses here are his voice and his expressive hands and face, this is acting, not public speaking; Daisey's is a rare talent, able to plant vivid pictures of places, people, and events that we've never seen before squarely within our mind's eye, so that we aren't just hearing narrated stories but are experiencing them as near to first-hand as it's possible to do without leaving our seats.
The cumulative effect of all of these tales is to remind us of the powers of theatre: transformative, redemptive, and otherwise. Daisey is deeply concerned that theatre and its inherent powers are being squandered by a culture that values money and things more than art and principles. He sees, in the corporatization of theatre (especially large regional theatres), a reflection of a general trend in America away from the energetic individualism that characterizes our idealized vision of who we are and why we're great and toward a passive consumerism that's antithetical to that vision. He sees not just the distressing surface of facts and figures indicating diminished attendance and rising costs, but the more disturbing anomie below. The artistic and managing directors who can't find their way out of the capitalist grind their mired in are the very same citizens who can't seem to elect a government to get them out of a war they don't support.
Which is why Daisey's call to action, no matter how naive you might judge it to be, is vitally important. One of the things he urges in How Theater Failed America is to reverse the failure through individual action, i.e., at the indie theater level. He knows that the impulse to make theatre will no more die than our innate need for freedom.

A Puffy mattress has the reputation of allowing to have a quality sleep during the night, which is a critical element for living with great health.
It’s proven scientifically the many restorative processes that occur during sleep, which just ensuring a deep and uninterrupted sleep produces its beneficial effects.
The biggest benefits for the two Puffy mattress versions are movement transfer and conforming. Additionally, the fact of using softer foams, make Puffy mattresses the right choice for individuals of average weight and the lightest.
According to 3700+ reviews made by clients, Puffy mattresses will be the best option for side sleepers. Needless to say, they’re subjective opinions. The most important factors when selecting a mattress are the comfort of the sleeper and spinal support.
For heavy weight people of, over 230 pounds, we do not suggest Puffy mattresses due to the softer foams that are used to fabricate them, and most probably they won’t support the burden they need.
The Puffy mattress is a 10″ thick mattress with two layers of foam, the top layer is 4″ thick cooling cloud memory foam. This layer of memory foam is supportive and flexible. It really focuses on relieving pressure from the head to the toes, which in addition to being comfortable is also a excellent support.
The base layer of the Puffy is a 6″ of base dense foam. This coating incorporates the Insta-Firm technology that offers a much more responsive and supportive foam base.
The bunk mattress can be found on the Puffy website. Puffy does not operate any physical location.
Puffy is now running a $200-off advertising, but by purchasing from the next link you can obtain an extra discount of $50 on any Puffy mattress, with the code BESTPUFFY, which means a $250 off total!
The Puffy mattress is available in six different sizes that are just like the standard USA mattress dimensions. This applies to Puffy and Puffy Lux types. The only difference between both is the height. Check out the following few tables.
First is the lifetime warranty, which is one of the most advantageous guarantees that the industry of mattresses has at their mood: if any failure has a mattress, no matter how little it is, you will find a new mattress with no additional cost, so long as the mattress is under your name.
You have 101 nights to test your new mattress! If for ANY reason you think that you haven’t had your very best rest, Puffy helps you to send your mattress into a local charity home. That applies even if you have used it for just a couple nights. Then you receive the complete refund.
It should not squeak. Having a mattress foundation which squeaks is your worst enemy for a great and restful sleep. There’s nothing worst than get awake in the middle of the night just because you change your posture and the mattress foundation starts creaking.
Give a great level of airflow. The mattress base should allow your mattress to breathe. This enables heat to dissipate as you sleep.
Sturdy enough. The mattress base should support your mattress and prevent it to sag. This will allow your mattress to lengthen the useful life time.
Repel dust. It needs to be manufactured in a manner that prevents the build-up of dust and mold. A side effect of this is to avoid the proliferation of dust mites and bed bugs, which are the causes of your children to obtain allergies and asthma.
Effortless to assemble. The mattress base should not require any additional tools to get it assembled. As life itself: quick and effortless.
Our studies have found that Puffy mattress bases fulfilled all of these key requirements and even more intriguing advantages, like its 14″ storage room to keep your things beneath the foundation.
A bed frame is used to maintain your mattress off the ground that helps keep you somewhat warmer. Puffy Bed Frame is designed with a modern contemporary look in mind. It’s strong, durable and squeak-free.
If you can’t combat acidity, you can opt for lifting at the foot. Sleeping face up with the mattress raised so that your back is higher, this will prevent the pressure your esophagus can get. Foot elevation can also be helpful for those who have poor circulation or are recovering from medical procedures.
If, on the other hand, you or your nearest and dearest have problems with allergies or sinusitis, sleeping on your back help to discover your own nose. It’s not the best for your spine, but this will help gravity unclog your nose.
To reduce back pain pain, you can sleep on your back and regulate the elastic foundation so that your knees stay raised.
What I liked about Puffy Adjustable Base is the fact it can be configured using wireless remote and dual massage zones.
A mattress pad is a thick of quilted material that sits o top of your mattress, but below your sheets. Puffy Mattress Pad is designed to protect you Puffy Mattress from wear and tear, and help reduce allergens. Another reason you would want to invest in a mattress pad would be to add comfort to your mattress.
What makes unique Puffy mattress pad is that it has passed quality testings and is Oeko-Tex certified, which ensures that it hasn’t got any harmful chemicals. Sleep with confidence knowing your beloved ones are in good hands.
A comforter is a thick, quilted, fluffy blanket that is used to keep you warm. As Puffy mattress pad, Puffy comforter is also Oeko-Tex certified to have no harmful chemicals. It is exceptionally soft and provides the perfect barrier against dust mites, mold, and allergens. You don’t have to worry about your toddler getting sick due to these parasites.
Puffy Mattress Protector is best to keep your Puffy in excellent condition. It’s designed to offer complete protection against dirt, spills, and normal wear and tear. It also helps to keep it free of water damage and potential stains. The material that’s made with, Bamboo Rayon fabric, ensures to be naturally sterile.
Although, regarding private sleep relaxation, the attention people normally concentrate on is in mattresses, they don’t understand how crucial their pillow choices are to a healthy and productive night’s rest.
Pillows are the next important component for a great sleep. Choose one that is too high or too hard and the following day you may get up even more exhausted than the night before, or even worst, you will wind up with a terrible headache.
Not each person is the same, so ideally, a pillow should be capable of adapting to everybody. We liked puffy pillows because they allow you to add or remove foam readily and find your ideal comfort level.
As the other Puffy products, the Puffy Pillow’s premium memory foam filling is CertiPUR-US Certified, which is an additional and about Puffy.
if you’re seeking a durable memory foam mattress, that is fantastic for sleeping in your stomach or on your side. Or if you like a medium level of firmness -like most of sleepers want-, then the Puffy mattress is a great choice. This mattress provides great comfort and perfect support with innovative and valuable materials.
According to a study from the University of New York, the best place to sleep is on the left side because that side has better circulation. Since the heart pumps blood more easily, not one of the main arteries are obstructed. Similarly, sleeping on this side makes the blood to return to the heart more easily.
Also, when sleeping on the left side it improves your digestion, because the stomach and intestines are slightly located to the left and in that way, food moves more easily. Concentrate on sleeping on your side and avoid dining food that is difficult to digest, also try not to dinner too late. 8.00 pm max.
Now I’ll leave some comments that people have left on Puffy website and their ratings. You can find thousands more there. Each day a new person buys a Puffy mattress. Chances are, your next door neighbor has purchased a Puffy recently. Do not be left behind.

Can I Have More Pay with that Shake?
Students will be able to choose a position on an issue and support that position with evidence from the text.
Students will be able to collaborate and develop their position with peers who share the same position.
Students will work in groups to create a multimedia presentation an audience of their peers that supports their position.
Prior to the lesson, create a remixed video of fast-food commercials, articles, etc that show the good and bad sides of the fast-food industry using Mozilla Popcorn Maker.
Show this video to students to "engage" and introduce them to the topic.
Have students complete a Quickwrite: Should fast-food workers earn a living wage? If necessary, define living wage. This can be a timed writing of 3-7 minutes. It's just to generate students thoughts on the topic prior to reading and hearing both sides of the issue.
4 Corners Debate Activity: Now,pose the question "Should fast food workers earn a living wage?"and divide the class space into 4 corners: Strongly Agree, Agree, Disagree, and Strongly Disagree. Have students move to the section of the room that best states their opinion on the issue. Once students get there have them discuss the reasons they chose this position. Then, have them appoint a speaker to summarize their perspective in one minute or less. As the other groups listen, they may be persuaded to change their minds. If they do want to change their mind, they can move to the new group. However, if they move they need to state why they were persusaded to change their opinion.
Assign students the Newsela article that best fits their reading level. Have them read the article on "Should Fast-Food workers earn a living wage?" The title may be different based on the reading level.
Once students complete the quick comprehension check in Newsela, do another 4 Corners Debate activitiy. Have students get in the corner of the room that now best supports their position. Students are now to work within those groups to develop and create a multimedia presentation to support their position. They may choose from any of the suggested applications above or a different one.

The theme of the exhibit is Volez, Voguez, Voyagez (French for “Fly, Sail, Travel”), which is a clever way of creating a sense of exoticism and luxury travel for potential consumers who may be “stuck” shopping in China. Courtesy Photo.
A version of this article originally appeared on our sister website, Jing Daily.
French fashion house Louis Vuitton opened a lush museum-like exhibition, “The Art of Travel,” in Shanghai November 16, following packed showings in Paris, Tokyo, Seoul, and New York City. But the Vuitton exhibition of about 1,600 0bjects from its archives is about much more than just destinations, pricey luggage and accessories. It’s also a smart, multi-pronged luxury-and-travel business campaign that partners LV with Ctrip, WeChat, Mobike, along with a group of hot Chinese contemporary artists.
Here’s what’s behind it all: Because of the falling yuan, fewer Chinese luxury shoppers are purchasing goods overseas. Meanwhile, the government is actively looking to boost domestic spending, and more Chinese shoppers are spending money on luxury products inside the country. In that environment, branding and domestic displays of consumer goods like the LVMH extravaganza have become crucial—something we’ve already seen in the form of luxurious museum exhibitions staged or backed by brands like Gucci and Prada in China.
“There’s an element of the old and the new in this exhibition – how traditions of things that were done over 100 years ago have an influence on things being done today,” said Robert Carsen, the exhibition’s artistic director and set designer. Courtesy image.
The theme of the Vuitton exhibit is Volez, Voguez, Voyagez (French for “Fly, Sail, Travel”), which is a clever way of creating a sense of exoticism and luxury travel for potential consumers who may be “stuck” shopping in China. It’s also an attempt at elevating brand awareness and prestige in the minds of consumers through stories about the company’s rich history—via a destination art exhibit.
By creating strategies that partner the luxury brand with the three internet companies that currently dominate the travel industry in China (Mobike, Ctrip, and Dianping), Louis Vuitton has successfully marketed their exhibition as a hot travel destination in Shanghai.
Their plan starts the minute visitors walk out of their front door—with the type of transportation they’ll take to get to the event. From November 15, when users in Shanghai opened their Mobike app, they’ll receive an invitation to the VVV (Volez, Voguez, Voyagez) exhibit. The virtual map will automatically turn into a VVV-themed one, and users can book a ticket right away if they decide to drop by for a visit. This visually engaging collaboration with the shared biking company Mobike helped put the exhibit onto people’s radar who are traveling locally.

To attract the type of demographic that would be a potential Louis Vuitton buyer, the company sent VIP exhibit passes to the VIP members of the online booking app Ctrip weeks ahead of the event. While the event started on the 16th, the introduction page is always refreshed with new exhibit highlights, photos, and videos. Visitors can also check-in and upload their own comments and photos.

Similarly, users on the online review forum Dianping (China’s answer to Yelp) can access a ‘24 hours in Shanghai’ guide. Aside from the exhibit, they can read about a selection of go-to local restaurants, cafés, and boutiques that are curated by the French luxury house. On Dianping, the responses from visitors have been overwhelmingly positive so far, and many on the site have shared tips on the best parts of the exhibition to take photos at.
The show highlights the evolution of Vuitton trunk designs throughout history but also includes original Chinese artworks and, of course, lots of gorgeously crafted Louis Vuitton clothing and accessories and an emotional appeal to heritage.
The “Expeditions” exhibit featured photographs were taken by a 1909’s Vuitton-lover, banker Albert Kahn traveling to China with his LV trunks and has captured the Manchu imperial family (bottom right). Courtesy image.
Many of the artworks commissioned for the Shanghai exhibition are by Chinese artists. Painter Yan Peiming made the portrait of the founder of the brand Louis Vuitton, and contemporary trunks were designed in collaboration with local artists Ding Yi and Xu Bing. Louis Vuitton also created Chinese narratives with different characters throughout history for visitors to enjoy. For example, the “Expeditions” exhibit featured photographs taken by a 1909’s Vuitton-lover, banker Albert Kahn, traveling to China with his LV trunks and photographing the Manchu imperial family.
The trunk, which took two years to make, features the traditional Louis Vuitton monogram pattern along with Xu Bing’s signature hybrid English-Chinese script to form text inspired by a poem by the modern Chinese poet Zhai Yongming, and inside are traditional Chinese ink brushes. Courtesy image.
There’s also a section dedicated to celebrities who’ve worn Louis Vuitton on the red carpet, many of whom are familiar faces in China. Throughout the exhibit, visitors can track the chronological China-related histories by following a small red Chinese flag.
“I think people will come away really surprised at the richness of the heritage of Louis Vuitton and understand why the marque continues to develop in the way that it does,” Robert Carsen, the exhibition’s artistic director, and set designer said.
While a mini-program has become a standard service for most luxury brands’ offline events, Louis Vuitton’s VVV packed a lot of information and function into their mini-program, which is more like a stand-alone app or virtual personal tour assistant.

For example, it has all the functions that museums use mini-programs for—like an audio guide and a visual map—but it also has a lot of new features that allow consumers to personally interact with the exhibit. At their “trunk in the sand” display, visitors look for a LV trunk in the desert by playing a virtual game. They can also use the “shake” function on WeChat to view customized trunk designs at the “trains” exhibit or take selfies with a VVV-designed logo.

By accessing the mini-program, users don’t have to download an app, and they can “travel” through the exhibit quickly and effortlessly. And after their visits, they can continue to listen to the audio guide or share their content on social media.
China is no doubt one of the most important markets in Asia for LVMH, as the Asia region accounted for 30 percent of their sales from the first half of 2018. But the climate has changed.
This July, for instance, the government made cuts on import duties, so Louis Vuitton lowered its prices in China to help compete with lower overseas prices. To further engage with domestic consumers, the brand recently appointed 27-year-old Chinese rapper and celebrity Kris Wu as their global ambassador (he also appeared in a dreamy campaign created by advertising agency Fred & Farid to build hype for the exhibition).
In Shanghai, Louis Vuitton has crafted its ambitious show with 15 different chapters that seek to illustrate how historically important, universally desirable and versatile Louis Vuitton bags may be. VIPS’s got early invites and, so far, reaction to the show on social media has been quite positive.
At the end of their tour, visitors see a Louis Vuitton workshop where craftsmen carefully explain the types of leather and lining used in some Vuitton products. If they want to indulge their fantasy of traveling with Louis Vuitton, there are also travel guidebooks available to buy, but not Vuitton merchandise.
Even though they leave the museum without their own luxury bags, Louis Vuitton is betting that consumers will take a hard look at their bags later when they see them in stores.

You don't need to watch a full episode of Mad Men to realize that a whole lot of drinking goes on in the show. There is certaintly no lack of martinis, Scotch or wine. In what may be a case of art imitating life, it turns out one of the actors on the show has a side gig making and selling wine.
Actor Ben Feldman, who plays the character of genius copywriter Michael Ginsberg, is using his Mad Men fame to publicize his label of syrah. Along with a childhood friend who also happens to be a sommelier, Ben founded Angelica Cellars in 2005. The wine is made from grapes from central California and is available at three restaurants, including Spago in Beverly Hills.
It seems fitting that a Mad Men actor would be a real-life wine lover. The HBO television series is in its 5th season and has successfully made the leap into the cookbook world and has even inspired retro dinner parties.

Well, well well, what do we have here? Out of no where, Inti Creates, has announced that their once Nintendo 3DS exclusive title, Azure Striker Gunvolt, will make the jump to PC next week. That’s right, it’s going to beat Mighty No. 9 to the platform? What, too soon? Azure Striker Gunvolt, when it was released on the 3DS the title had tons of positive reception, so I can only hope that stands true for the PC release.
But other than the port, what else can you expect from the title? Glad you asked, just take a look at the added features.
For all you speedrunners out there, a brand new Speed-run Mode has been added, with future updates coming soon.
Ability to pllay the original Japanese version of the game complete with Japanese voiceovers and mid-stage dialogue with English subtitles!
If you also preorder the game, you’ll get access to the Mighty Gunvolt release on the PC for free as well, but only for a month. This I’m not to sure of, since our buddy reviewed it when it was released on 3DS and he didn’t take to kindly to it. You can travel back in time and check out this review on Mighty Gunvolt here.
The system requirements for the game are minimum, so just about everyone will be able to play the title.
Azure Striker Gunvolt will be released on August 28, 2015 and will sale for $14.99.

Prayer Flags Australia at Yoga King – Buy These Flags For Bringing in Purity to the Environment.
Tibetan Buddhists believe in spreading peace, love, joy, harmony, good health, positivity and happiness through prayer flags. For example, when the wind blows the flag, it carries the spiritual power received from the flag and drives off the negative vibes across. It is believed that anyone who feels the wind gets purified from their negative deeds and transforms into the pure state of consciousness. Similarly, when the rain touches the flag, it is believed to bless other creatures on the ground.

is now the primary cause of death in dogs over two years of age.
Yet new and emerging research cites only 5% of cancers are genetic in origin!
The remaining 95% are metabolic in nature and arise from lifestyle factors and repeated exposure to environmental toxins.
Dog food is so confusing! How do I know if I’m feeding my pet what he needs?
Are there natural things I can do at home to help keep my dog healthy?
I worry about the toxicity of products in my home and even those sold for pets!
How can I know what’s safe to use?
How do I talk to my vet when I feel unsure about her recommendations?
What Regulation? At least in the United States, you will probably be shocked and upset to learn that there is no regulation at all of the thousands of chemicals used in everyday household items. Take a look at this list. It’s the things we come into contact with every day in our homes. So what does that mean? Essentially anything that isn’t food (at least in the USA) is not regulated for safety. It means, there is no oversight and consequently, little if any published research as to how harmful any of these compounds might be. We’re part of a grand experiment, and in many ways, both pet parents and furry family members are the guinea pigs. The good news is there is plenty of credible research available about toxins in products we use every single day. The bad news – we are saturated with sophisticated marketing messages that either convince us to use products despite the risks or leave us feeling confused and overwhelmed.
Our pets have to live in our environment, it’s not their choice!
The dangers of pre- or post-natal exposure to this complex mixture of carcinogens, developmental toxins and neurotoxins has never been studied. If anything, our pets are likely to carry a heavier toxic load than we do because there’s even less regulation or care for the consequences of toxicity from everyday products for our pets than for humans.
There are four main pathways for toxins to get into our pets. First, they can be absorbed through the skin and or mucous membranes of the mouth and nose. Secondly, they can be ingested. Airborne toxins can be absorbed through inhalation and finally, toxins can be injected into the body, typically in the form of vaccines.
Let’s take a look at each of these pathways in a little more detail.
The third pathway for toxins to get into your pet is by inhalation. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are gaseous toxins that are absorbed into the body through inhalation. Certain plastics, paints and other very common household products outgas volatile organic compounds that can be extremely toxic. This list can be extremely long and includes products in all the categories listed below.
The final pathway for toxins to get into your pet is by injection. Vaccines are a primary source of both mercury and aluminum. Both mercury and aluminum are neurotoxins and easily pass through the blood/brain barrier.
In it’s simplest form, a toxin is a substance that causes harm. Toxins can be man-made as in the form of chemicals or pharmaceutical drugs. But, they can also be the natural venom of plants or animals (as in snake venom). Even natural biological processes in the body produce toxins.
In it’s simplest form, a toxin is a substance that causes harm.
Where do toxins come from? Toxins can come from the internal environment as a result of natural metabolic processes. For example, the breakdown of protein in the body produces ammonia and urea. The body has built-in mechanisms to manage detoxification from internal sources. So, its the external environment that poses the biggest risk. All life is dependent on our ability to breathe air, drink water and eat food. There is no comprehensive list of chemical toxins, but suffice it to say the list is extensive and includes substances from all the categories listed below. Individually, each of these classes of toxins can result in biological damage. When combined, however, the impact can be exponentially worse. Heavy metals, for example, have cumulative effects. Both mercury and aluminum are core ingredients in many vaccines and are known to have deleterious effects on the nervous system.
Mercury is the second most toxic substance on the planet (plutonium is number one and is most commonly introduced to the body when inhaled after a nuclear disaster). There is no safe level of mercury. Mercury accumulates in the body over time as a result of chronic mercury exposure in the air, water, and food supply.
Heavy metals, and mercury, in particular, are extremely toxic to the endocrine system, which is comprised of the thyroid, the adrenals, and the pineal gland. Thyroid issues can often be traced back to heavy metal exposure. Mercury destroys key enzymes required by the thyroid which can result in hypothyroidism and/or autoimmune disease.
Mercury also ruins our detoxication pathways, especially in the liver. The liver is one of the body’s primary organs for detoxification with the kidneys being the other.
Mercury exposure has a very deleterious effect on the immune system.
According to the Environmental Working Group: Bisphenol A, or BPA is an industrial chemical used to make two common synthetic products- Polycarbonate and Epoxy resins. Polycarbonate is a clear, rigid, shatter-resistant plastic found in a wide variety of consumer products, inducing food and beverage containers. Epoxy resins are used in industrial adhesives and high-performance coatings. epoxy coating lines most of the 131 billion food and beverage cans produced every year in the United States. BPA is also widely found in consumer electronics (including DVDs and CDs), sports equipment, medical and dental devices, eyeglass lenses, dental sealants, dental fillings and thermal paper, including store receipts and plastic water pipes.
According to Medical News Today, BPA is a synthetic estrogen that interferes with the production, secretion, transport, function and elimination of natural hormones. Even in small amounts, it can disrupt the endocrine system and has been linked to a wide variety of ills including infertility, breast and reproductive system cancer, obesity diabetes, early puberty, behavioral changes in children and resistance to chemotherapy treatments. According to Dr. Karen Becker, a new study conducted by researchers at the University of Missouri and published in the journal Science of the Total Environment concludes that even short-term feeding of canned dog food results in a significant increase of BPA (Bisphenol A) in dogs.1 The following countries have declared BPA toxic and have banned its use from all packaging and containers in the best case, or at least from baby food packaging and bottles.
The US is less stringent, banning the use of BPA only in baby bottles, children’s cups and packages of infant formula.
In 2016 the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center received 180,639 cases of pet poisoning. Of the top ten most commonly “ingested” poisons, insecticides ranked #7, followed by rodenticides (accounting for 5.5% of cases) and lawn and garden products including, herbicides and fungicides ranked #10 (2.6% of cases). While these statistics are alarming, this accounts for only the known incidences of “ingested” poisoning. To date, no data exists to estimate the total number of exposures (absorbed, inhaled, ingested and injected), let along the bio-accumulative effect of repeated contacts. Companion animals are much more vulnerable to chemical exposures in products like these for several reasons. First, dogs explore their surroundings with their feet, mouth, and nose. They unknowingly walk through chemically-treated areas, collecting particles in their fur and easily absorbing a cocktail of chemicals through the mucous membranes of their mouth, and nose. Dogs are notorious for chewing and even eating plant material, unfortunately, they cannot discriminate whether plants have been treated with chemicals. In general, cats will absorb more chemical residues due to their grooming habits. But, some dogs are keen on licking themselves too. Paw licking is a common habit among dogs and provides for direct ingestion and/or absorption of chemicals through the mouth and mucous membranes.
Secondary Poisoning occurs when dogs and cats catch and eat poisoned prey. Both dogs and cats eat a variety of prey animals in the wild, including but not limited to rodents, insects, mollusks, and birds. Many of those species are considered “pests” and efforts are often made to eliminate them with the use of chemicals. Ingestion of rat poison is one of the most commonly reported incidents to the pet poison helpline. In fact, they report dozens of calls every day for ingestion of common mouse and rat poisons. However, eating the poison directly isn’t the only concern. In addition to eating the rodent, the dog/cat also absorbs any poison the rodent has eaten. As poisoned rodents become weakened by the effects of the rodenticide, they also become easier targets for companion animals to catch and consume. Most of these poisons bio-accumulate in the body over time, so immediate symptoms of secondary poisoning may not be apparent. Other seriously toxic, yet commonly used substances include snail and slug killers and gopher and mole baits, just to name a few.
One of the most challenging decisions pet parents face is how to safely prevent and/or manage fleas and ticks. Not only are fleas and ticks disgusting, we all know they can transmit serious disease and parasites to both pets and people. While manufacturers of these products would have us believe they are harmless, a significant amount of evidence suggests that may not be the case. The Washington-based Center for Public Integrity (CPI), a nonprofit investigative news organization, and the National Resources Defense Council, an environmental advocacy group, have both published reports about the safety of prescription and over-the-counter flea and tick treatments. Some of the most popular “spot-on” products include Frontline, Advantage, Bio Spot Flea and several others. Fipronil is the active ingredient in Frontline. According to the Frontline website, consumers are led to believe that the product remains only in the oil glands of the skin. Laboratory tests, however, demonstrate that this toxin (intended to kill fleas and ticks), does indeed enter the body and organs systems. According to the EPA’s pesticide division, Fipronil remains in a pet’s system and has the potential to cause nervous system damage and thyroid toxicity. Imidacloprid is the active ingredient in Advantage. Inadacloprid is classified as a neurotoxin and has been found to increase cholesterol levels in dogs, along with thyroid lesions and toxicity in the liver. Pyrethrins represent the third class of toxins used in spot-on flea and tick treatments. These naturally occurring compounds from the chrysanthemum plant (and the synthetic version called pyrethroids) are generally thought to be harmless. While they are significantly less hazardous than other flea and tick products, data obtained from the Center for Public Integrity linked at least 1600 pet deaths related to pyrethrin based spot on treatments (nearly double the reported fatalities linked to flea treatments without pyrethroids). Studies of permethrins have been implicated as carcinogenic insecticides and neurotoxins. The pyrethroid spot-ons also accounted for more than half of the “major” pesticide pet reactions including brain damage, heart attacks, and seizures. Non-pyrethroid spot-on treatments accounted for about 6 % of all major incidents.
Between 2013 and 2016, three new flea/tick preventive medications were released by the brand names: Nexgard, Bravecto and Simparica. The active ingredient in Nexgard is Afoxolaner, the active ingredient in Bravecto is Fluralaner, and the active ingredient in Simparica is sarolaner. These products are in the form of an oral chew which releases the drugs into the dog’s circulating blood. When a flea or tick bites the dog, it is exposed to the chemicals and dies. Like the spot-on treatments, all three of these products are classified as pesticides that work by attacking the nervous system of the pest. Since these products are relatively new, less data is available regarding safety and side effects. Nonetheless, the FDA does maintain an adverse events database. Dogs Naturally Magazine reported the following adverse events for Nexgard and Bravecto from January to March 2016. Read the actual reports from the FDA. Simparica is too new for similar reports to be made available.

A report by Japanese media outlet Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun claims Subaru will release an electric all wheel drive crossover in time for the 2021 model year. Since crossover sales are exploding worldwide and electric cars are the wave of the future, combining the two makes sense. Subaru has made its reputation by building all wheel drive vehicles. In the US market, the company currently offers customers no other choices.
All future Subarus will be built on the company’s latest Global Platform, including the small Impreza sedan. The Global Platform is specifically designed to accommodate all likely powertrain options, whether gas, diesel, plug-in hybrid, or battery electric. Presumably if the company decided to offer a fuel cell vehicle at some point or one powered by moonbeams, it would ride on the Global Platform as well.
Fuji Heavy spokesman Masato Saito said the company has not made any decisions about introducing an all-electric, all-wheel drive vehicle. “We have yet to decide on any specifics at the moment,” Saito said. Subaru does have plug-in hybrid models planned for 2018 and beyond. Like all manufacturers, it is trying to comply with stricter fuel economy and emissions standards that conventional cars find difficult to meet.
Subaru is a relatively small manufacturer compared to giants like Toyota and Honda. It does not have the enormous research and development budgets available to larger companies, so must rely on outside suppliers for plug-in hybrid and electric powertrain components.
Its new Global Platform is an indication that the conventional car companies are not yet in a position to commit to fully electric cars. Instead, they intend to hedge their bets, keeping all options open so they can respond rapidly to changes in customer demands and regulatory decisions. Only Tesla is fully committed to electric vehicles. The rest are playing catch up while keeping one eye on the rear view mirror. By the time the Subaru electric all wheel drive crossover arrives in showrooms, Elon Musk will be sending space pioneers to Mars.

Given the assurances given about the currency last summer, it's no surprise that many Kazakhs are apprehensive about the coming privatization of the country's most valuable industries and businesses.
On July 15, 2015, Kazakhstan's national currency, the tenge, was valued at around 187 tenges to the U.S. dollar. That was the day that the chairman of Kazakhstan's central bank, Kairat Kelimbetov, announced that bank authorities were widening the currency's trading band so the tenge would float between 170 and 198 to the U.S. dollar.
Kelimbetov said the exchange corridor would allow the tenge to "fluctuate independently" and therefore "answer the challenges in the coming six to 12 months." He said it was a "happy medium" for Kazakhstan's economy. In August, the bank announced a devaluation of the tenge and the rate fell precipitously.
On January 12, 2016, less than six months after Kelimbetov announced the widening of the currency band, the tenge's exchange rate was around 370 to the U.S. dollar.
Faced with economic hardships not seen since the 1990s, Kazakhstan is now moving to privatize its biggest enterprises, including the state oil and gas company, the state nuclear company, the railroad company, the national postal service, and many more of the prize pieces that for more than a decade represented Kazakhstan's economic success. Privatization could potentially bring tens of billions of dollars into Kazakhstan's economy, which is exactly what Kazakh officials are hoping.
Given the assurances the National Bank chairman gave a half-year earlier, it is no surprise that many people in Kazakhstan are apprehensive about the coming privatization of the country's most valuable industries and businesses. Many also remember the results of privatizations in Kazakhstan 20 years ago that made a select few people very wealthy.
RFE/RL's Kazakh Service, known locally as Azattyq, interviewed some knowledgeable people in Kazakhstan to get their reaction to the impending privatization.
The president of the Union of Academics, Orazaly Sabden, told Azattyq, "Under the guise of privatization, it is possible that not the people but those people who already have billions will be further enriched." Sabden added that the privatization process "must be fair...[and] it should be transparent -- on television, in the press, everything so the people see they are getting something."
"We've seen other privatizations [and] who gained from them," Sabden recalled, without naming anyone in particular.
The director of the Astana branch of the Institute of Economic Sciences, Zhangeldy Shymshykov, said another problem was that "within the government structures, quasi-state enterprises have appeared recently, and they interfere with the formation of entrepreneurial and competitive conditions."
Shymshykov said state management had been neither motivated nor interested in effective results.
Ordinary citizens shared with Azattyq some of their concerns since the government late last year announced plans for the massive privatization campaign. As Kazakh citizens helplessly watch their purchasing power plunge and some face bankruptcy after they took out loans based on dollar rates during better economic times, many people in the country are afraid this wave of privatization will only benefit those who already have large amounts of money.
Some critics suggest the privatization targets mostly the infrastructure of big state companies and is an attempt by the government to jettison ballast by forcing these companies and enterprises to function as independent businesses.
The fears surrounding privatization are not wholly unfounded. Kazakhstan's large privatization process in the mid-1990s produced many of the richest people in the country today, and some former officials from that time have since fled the country and live comfortably abroad in self-imposed exile.
Akram Yuldashev allegedly confessed on Uzbekistan’s state-controlled television to organizing the May 2005 protests in Andijon.
RFE/RL's Uzbek Service, known locally as Ozodlik, has learned from sources that Akram Yudashev, the imprisoned leader of the Akramiya religious group, died in prison five years ago.
Yuldashev had not been seen since late 2005. International rights groups had repeatedly called on Uzbek authorities to provide information about Yuldashev, his location and condition, but Uzbek authorities routinely ignored these requests.
Ozodlik spoke to sources on January 11 who confirmed Yuldashev had died of tuberculosis in prison some five years ago, though the sources could not provide an exact date or the location of the facility where Yuldashev was being held.
Akram Yuldashev rose to prominence in the mid-1990s as a religious leader in the area around the eastern Uzbek city of Andijon. Yuldshev authored a book titled Iymonga Yol (The Path To Faith) in which Yuldashev related his religious and philosophical ideas. Yuldashev wrote the book after becoming disillusioned with the now-banned Islamic group Hizb ut-Tahrir and parting ways with the sect.
His stature as a community and religious leader grew in his native Andijon region. During this time, Yuldashev worked as a math teacher and later in a textile plant.
In 1998, he was arrested on charges of narcotics possession and jailed for 30 months. However, he fell under an amnesty instituted by Uzbek authorities some months later and was freed.
On February 16, 1999, a series of bombs exploded in the Uzbek capital, Tashkent, regarded as the first-ever terrorist attack in Uzbekistan. Yuldashev was arrested the next day and later tried and convicted of involvement in the Tashkent bombings. He was sentenced to 17 years in prison.
In the spring of 2005, demonstrations started in Andijon against the jailing of a group of local businessmen. These businessmen were acquaintances of Yuldashev. The appointments of new provincial and city officials some months earlier had upset the established system of patronage in the region and the businessmen had not only lost their enterprises but were in danger of losing their freedom as well.
On May 13, 2005, an armed group crossed from Kyrgyzstan into Uzbekistan, attacked a police station, stole weapons, then went to a prison near Andijon and freed the prisoners. Those prisoners mixed with the demonstrators in Andijon and violence broke out.
Uzbek authorities sent in troops to restore order and a bloodbath ensued.
Authorities blamed a group called Akramiya, followers of the imprisoned Yuldashev, for provoking the violence. Though he had been in prison for some six years, Yuldashev was branded as an instigator of the violence and appeared in court on charges of attempting to overthrow the government.
Yuldashev's trial appearances in late 2005 were the last times anyone outside the government ever saw him. His fate has remained a mystery until now.
In the 10 years since Yuldashev was last seen, his family has tried to get information about Yuldashev's fate. Some members of the family fled to the United States and engaged legal aid and lobbyists to press the Uzbek government to divulge information about their imprisoned kinsman, all without result.
International rights groups such as U.S.-based Human Rights Watch (HRW) repeatedly released statements calling on Uzbekistan's government to provide some information about Yuldashev.
HRW's Steve Swerdlow reminded RFE/RL that his organization had issued a report on September 15, 2014, titled Until The Very End, which chronicled the incarcerations of 34 people. Swerdlow said Uzbek authorities provided some information about 33 of those 34 people. Yuldashev was the one person about whom Uzbek officials did not comment.
It now appears all these efforts during the last five years were in vain. The person all the people and groups were seeking information about was dead.
Uzbek authorities have still not commented on Yuldashev's reported death.

Water tanks, tarps, and a few pieces of PVC pipe can go along way in a disaster. Simple rainwater harvesting systems are inexpensive and easy to build.
Advanced systems cost more yet do a lot more. How to keep your family alive in the months following a catastrophic disaster.
What happens to the local water company when disaster strikes?
A large scale disaster can destroy underground pipes throughout the city and a loss of power can cause water companies to close their doors as water plants cease operation. In a mega-disaster, these plants may be completely destroyed, public water now a thing of the past.
Suddenly, there’s no more water coming from your tap or any water that does come from faucets may no longer be safe to drink due to contamination by chemicals, sewage, or worse.
A disaster, such as a nuclear meltdown or detonation of an atomic weapon, can release massive amounts of radiation into the air; when it falls to the surrounding countryside, radiation can poison reservoirs as well as aquifers (underground bodies of water that supply several regions with drinking water).
If you’re going to prep for disaster, wouldn’t it be wise to have a source of drinking water not connected to the water company?
Using a mix of primitive technology and modern day technology — you can have a source of drinking water — through rainwater harvesting.
If you have the finances, you can purchase large water tanks that can be stored underground and out of sight, providing water for drinking, washing, and bathing in a time of emergency or collapse.
If you don’t have the finances, that’s ok — there are several creative ways to collect rainwater as it falls on your home and property and then bottle and store it for later use.
The least expensive way to prep for a disaster is to gradually build up a collection of empty 5 gallon water jugs, the jugs commonly seen on the top of water coolers, as well as sold (and recycled) at stores in several communities.
Empty jugs are light weight — if you lack storage space, consider storing these in your attic. Or, if you live in an apartment or condo without an attic, be creative. Lift your bed frame two feet off the floor (purchase some lumber from your local hardwood store) and then build a storage area right under your bed. You may be able to store 20 empty five gallon jugs right under your bed. If you take the time to think, you’ll probably find additional creative spaces to store empty water jugs, even if you don’t think you have the extra space.
Now you’re much more prepared for a catastrophic disaster — you’ll have a system ready for harvesting rainwater, and supplying your family with drinking water, much like what is found in a number of third-world countries today.
Tip: There’s no telling when the first rainstorm will occur following a disaster. Today, consider filling a number of these 5 gallon jugs with tap water. Then, every six months or so, dump the water out and refill your jugs (water can go “bad” after a few months of storage). That way your water is relatively fresh, should a disaster not take place for several months after you begin your water storage preps.
So, that is how you store water on a budget, and prepare yourself for surviving a catastrophic disaster.
Or, if you own your own home and you have the finances, you can hire a company to build a professional rainwater harvesting system.
Companies that specialize in rainwater harvesting systems can supply all of the components you might need while others perform complete installations such as building roofs (metal roofs), providing back-up generators, and even include a first flush filter chamber that automatically disposes of the first few gallons of water collected following a storm, as the first few gallons usually carry dirt and other sediment that’s collected on a roof since the last rain storm.
What if you don’t have the finances for one of these advanced system? Good news — there are simple, inexpensive ways to also harvest rainwater. Even if you do purchase an advanced system and have it installed at your home or property it’s a good idea to learn how these simple systems work because there’s always a chance your advanced system will be destroyed in a major disaster.
Without a back-up plan for collecting water, what will you do?
Once these first few gallons of rainwater are dumped by a first flush system — to reduce the fine particles of dirt — rainwater then collects in a water tank (or multiple water tanks, depending on the size and scope of your system), where it is then stored. A good, sturdy corrugated steel water tank makes a great choice for large storage requirements.
If your water tanks are full when a disaster strikes, you’ll have several hundred gallons of water for you and your family to live off.
Then, in the coming weeks as the rain comes down, your water tanks will refill and you will have a constant water supply.
As long as you have fuel for your generator, your pumps will continue to work, and your system will continue to operate.
Should a disaster be so widespread that you one day run out of fuel to power the generator to power the pumps that run your rainwater harvesting system, it’s not the end of the world.
Now it’s time to fall back on primitive technology and use techniques used by primitive people in different parts of the world to collect rain water.
These primitive systems require no power, just ingenuity and planning.
Because harvesting rainwater subjects collected water to contaminants from the environment (such as bird dung, insects, polluted air, and even plant debris), often it’s being used to supply water for washing and toilets, rather than for drinking.
You, being a prepper — a person who takes steps to prepare home and family for a time of disaster — should take the time to learn a few simple methods for rainwater harvesting. You’ll be a great help to your neighbors in their time of need, as well as have a back-up plan should you have to evacuate the area and leave your large stores of bottled water behind.
Here’s another reason for rainwater harvesting — collecting rainwater will help make any bottled water you have stockpiled last longer.
A surface is turned toward the sky and pointed downward at a slight angle, to a low point, where water that collects then “funnels” to either a bucket or even to a pipe, that then carries the water to a barrel, tank, pond, or underground tank.
A tarp is an easy way to collect rainwater; a larger tarp will collect more than a smaller tarp.
For the cleanest rainwater, every few days clean your tarp, removing any debris or mildew that has formed.
The further away from trees, the better — your tarp will collect less bird dung and also less debris (like leaves and pine needles) that fall.
Most homes have a natural system for collecting rainwater — gutters. Your gutters will have a series of drains, often on each corner of a home, that then funnel down a second gutter (down-spout), to either be carried away underground, or to simply drain into yards and driveways.
To use this system that is already in place, you simply need to make modifications to the down-pointing gutter, so that it carries water to a barrel, tank, pond, etc.
Using an existing gutter system in this fashion, calls for taking some steps before hand. Take the time to clean and repair your gutters; keep them clean with periodic maintenance.
Stockpile a few large tarps; in a time of disaster you can drape 2 – 3 large tarps over the roofing of your home, allowing rainwater to collect on the tarp and then drain into your gutters.
This is going to provide you with cleaner water than if it simply lands on your rooftop, which is likely to have environmental contaminants (like bird dung or even mildew or algae, depending on climate).
Because of mosquitoes, build “closed-loop” systems. This means that once water hits a gutter, it doesn’t collect and pool, offering mosquitoes a place to breed. Instead, the water should drain immediately to a down-spout, and then collect in sealed barrels or tanks.
** In areas of trees, use screens over your gutters (“gutter screens”) to help prevent things like leaves, seeds, and pine needles from washing down into barrels or tanks.
** Periodically clean barrels and tanks of any sediment that has collected or algae that has formed.
To prep for a time of disaster or other extended emergency, keep roofing materials on hand that are safe to use for potable drinking water. I’m referring to sheets of plastic or metal used commonly on sheds and sometimes homes that do not contain toxins or heavy metals (talk to manufactures and even experts in the rainwater harvesting field who build roofs for this purpose). Most traditional roofing materials such as tiles, shakes, cement, wood, or others have ingredients that will leech into water. This water is not good for anything other than washing and for toilet water.
If you want a rainwater harvesting system for potable drinking water, be sure to choose a type of roof such as uncoated stainless steel or factory-enameled galvanized steel with a baked-enamel, certified lead-free finish.
You can of course build your home with a complete roof that is made specifically to provide potable water through rainwater harvesting. Be ready to shell out several thousand dollars.
High-winds can also take your tarps right off your roof. Learn how to use bricks and string to tie several anchor points to any tarp you use on your roof. You can also tie string to several grommets, and then bolt these ties to the side of your home, but in strong enough winds these grommets can tear free. In this case, look for “heavy duty” tarp. It’s much stronger than many types of typical store-bought tarp.
If for any reason you have to evacuate or relocate eventually, tarp rolls or folds up for easy transport.
* Temporary shelters can be built from tarps that provide a method of rainwater harvesting. Hang your tarp at an angle so that water drains off to one side.
* Then build a makeshift gutter out of three long three branches by tying them together, with about 2 inches of space between each branch. Then use another tarp or roll of plastic to wrap these branches in.
* Arrange the sticks inside the tarp so that you have a channel (depression) in the tarp that will now catch water, much like a roof-top gutter.
* Set it at the base of your tarp, where water drains off. It will drip down on to this makeshift gutter and then drain down to a bucket or other container you’ve set up for capturing water.
A neighbored destroyed by a natural disaster will offer numerous materials that can be used to harvest rainwater. Use a hammer and saw to pry and cut into walls where you can cut away pipes used to carry water (small diameter pipes carry clean drinking water to sinks … don’t use larger diameter pipes that carry “greywater”; which is waste water from sinks, dishwashers, washing machines, and shower drains) or toilet water. Use these pipes you’ve scavenged in conjunction with tarps you’ve stockpiled.
** Better yet — along with those tarps you’re prepping with, stockpile a number of PVC pipes that are used in plumbing for drinking water (any Lowes or Home Depot will have them). They’re inexpensive, light-weight, and can be used in any primitive rainwater harvesting system you build.
** While we’re on the subject of materials to prep with, be sure to stockpile a few rolls of duct tape, or as much as a few cases. Duct tape can be used in large amounts to tape together pipes (be sure to have pipe joints, which there are different types, for connecting pipes together at different angles).
** If you have to relocate to a new area (because your area is no longer safe to live), a primitive rainwater system can be easily broken down and moved (depending on the size and number of tanks you have to carry).
Water tanks used in northern states or at higher elevations (such as a cabin or property in the foothills or mountains) can be subject to freezing temperatures for days or weeks at a time. Water tank heaters are the solution, however they require power to operate.
Going into winter, if you’re counting on your water tank supplying you with drinking water for several weeks at a time, there are different methods for keeping water in your tanks from freezing, when there is no power.
* Start by purchasing insulating blankets that wrap around water tanks, or build insulation yourself (in a mega-disaster you’ll be surprised at just how much debris from destroyed homes and buildings can be found, such as wall and attic insulation, which you can collect).
* Use Styrofoam or other insulation (along with plenty of duct tape, to keep insulation in place) to keep valves and pipes from freezing.
* On water tanks, use insulated lids as the lid is an area that heat can escape.
* When kept full of water, your tank can stay warm enough for several hours to get the tank through the night without freezing. This is the rule of thumb in areas receiving plenty of sunshine as the sun shining on a tank (above-ground tank) during the day can warm the tank enough that (when full of water) it can get through the night without freezing.
* When placing a water tank above ground, place in an area on your property that receives the most sunshine. You may need to cut down a couple trees that otherwise block the sun.
* Cover tanks with black tarp; when the sun shines on black tarp, it warms the air underneath, creating more warmth around your water tank.
* Tanks can also be buried beneath homes and accessed by cellars. The ground beneath homes is typically warmer when a “heat island” is created, which is a natural occurrence.
* Finally, in areas without direct sunlight, build tanks alongside outside fireplaces, or whatever system you use to heat your home or shelter or to cook with. Arrange bricks so that heat from a fireplace or fire-pit can warm a water tank without damaging it.

During last month’s Hall of Fame Induction Weekend festivities (June 11-14th) former light middleweight and middleweight champion Sergio “Maravilla” Martinez formally announced his retirement from the sport of boxing.
“Thanks to the family of this marvelous sport. I want to thank all of my fans around the world. I am thanking them here at the International Boxing Hall of Fame because I am officially retiring from boxing after 20 years as a boxer. It is time to step aside and continue on to new horizons. Here I retire. Thank you so very much and to victory always,” said Martinez.
The fighting pride of Buenos Aires, Argentina, Martinez turned pro in 1997. “Maravilla” is a two-division world champion. He reigned as WBC light middleweight champion (2009-2010) and WBC (2010-2011, 2012-2014), WBO (2010) and The Ring middleweight champion. The charismatic pugilist compiled a pro record of 51-3-2 (28 KOs) that includes wins over Kelly Pavlik, Alex Bunema, Paul Williams, Darren Barker, Matthew Macklin, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and Martin Murray.
Martinez recently reflected on his decision to announce his retirement in Canastota last month.
Next boxing news: Weights: Sergey Kovalev: 174.5 lbs. Nadjib Mohammedi: 173 lbs.

We took the U Bahn from Floridsdorf and then walked to the SchweizerHaus, which means Swiss House in German. This place is legendary here for its traditional Austrian food. Of particular note is the pork shank, which appears to be roasted and is HUGE. Literally, we watched a family of four across from us share one pork shank. We heard that some of them weigh up to a kilo, or 2.2 pounds to us. And that isn't all - it comes with a bread basket, coleslaw salad, and fresh ground horseradish and mustard.
Did I mention, the Swiss House is a biergarten? Reportedly home of the original Budweiser, in fact. So we felt obligated to try, for the sake of an old fashioned Austrian custom.
Our drinks came out first, mostly because I ordered the Backhendl, which is fried chicken and takes 20 minutes. But we waited patiently, watching the family foursome at the next table decimate their roasted pork. Above us through the tress we could see one of the rides, a giant communal swing lifting numbers of people into the air and swirling them all in a lazy spiral.
After dinner we walked through the amusement park. Jon won a tiny but loud green kazoo whistle at an archery booth, which he proceeded to blow almost incessantly. All in all it was a perfect way to spend one of the last pretty days of our first Fall in another land. And we will take all of our friends and family who visit us to the Swiss House!

Hello, i'm doing this 3D game, where you can fly around space and you can land on planets, where you automatically rotate and land on your feet on the planet, wich has bigger gravity (like space engineers), so i don't know how to write the gravity script for the rigidbody if rigidbody already has gravity by decreasing the Y. Please help me (13 year old developer), sorry for my bad english, thanks alot.
KSP huh? Anyways, don't use the gravity scale, make your own.
Heres something you can work out of, I'm also 13 lol!

Mix all ingredients together, knead and form into two logs. Wrap in plastic wrap or zip lock bag. Refrigerate overnight. Roll out for thickness for squares, rectangles and cut with a pastry cutter for the pretty edges or just slice logs in 1/4 inch thick rounds. To get them shine brush with a beaten egg yolk or egg beaters work well too. Bake at 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
The orange golden crust of the crackers is looking lovely & delicious.
This is geniuous! I love crackers with blue cheese. What a great idea putting them into one recipe!
Tonight when I get home I want these and a bottle of wine waiting for me. Will you make that happen? It has been a very bad week.
They look perfect. What a fantastic combination heat, creaminess and bite.
Hello my dear friend. This is great! I have never made crackers before and in Italy they have always been very popular. I will try this. Have a nice weekend.
Just the thing to go with a nice bowl of tomato soup!!
I ADORE homemade crackers and those with blue cheese just what I am looking for!
...again, can't remember the captcha, so just to let you know I love your bleu cheese crackers...taking the recipe now, and not later...yumm!
I'm so going to try these crackers when things slow down a bit Claudia. I've tried several crackers but never with bleu cheese and hubby loves bleu cheese!
These crackers sound tasty and delicious!

The configurations that are available on the configuration coordinator are automatically propagated to the other cluster nodes and therefore all cluster nodes have the same configurations.
NetScaler appliance allows only a few configurations to be performed on individual cluster nodes through their NSIP address. In these cases, you must ensure configuration consistency manually across all nodes in the cluster. These configurations are not propagated across the other cluster nodes. For more information on operations supported on each cluster nodes, see “Operations Supported on Individual Cluster Nodes”.
shutdown. Shuts down only the configuration coordinator.
reboot. Reboots only the configuration coordinator.
rm cluster instance. Removes the cluster instance from the node that you are executing the command on.
The quorum must be configured on cluster instance.
The majority of the cluster quorum with (n/2 + 1) of the cluster nodes must be active for the cluster to be operational.
A cluster can run with a minimum number of nodes when majority rule (n/2 + 1) is relaxed.
Full synchronization. If the difference between configurations exceeds 255 commands, all the configurations of the configuration coordinator are applied to the node that is rejoining the cluster. The node remains operationally unavailable for the duration of the synchronization.
You can also manually synchronize the configurations and files. For more information, see “ Synchronizing Cluster Configurations” and “ Synchronizing Cluster Files”.

John Dittmer is a prominent historian of the Mississippi civil rights movement. A native of Seymour, Indiana, Dittmer earned bachelor’s (1961), master’s (1964), and doctoral (1971) degrees from Indiana University. In the fall of 1967 he accepted an appointment as assistant professor of history at Tougaloo College, a small, historically black liberal arts college just outside Jackson. Within a year, Tougaloo appointed Dittmer academic dean. He returned to teaching in the fall of 1970 and was promoted to associate professor in 1971. He continued teaching there until 1979, when he accepted a position as visiting associate professor of history at Brown University. After three years at Brown, one year as a Rockefeller Foundation fellow, and two years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dittmer returned to Indiana to become an associate history professor at DePauw University in Greencastle. He retired and was granted emeritus status in 2003.
While at Tougaloo, Dittmer had known many civil rights activists and had heard their stories. He knew that the struggle for civil rights was different in Mississippi than in much of the rest of the South. Mississippi lacked cities large enough to support the independent black ministers who often assumed leadership roles in the movement in other southern states—men such as Martin Luther King Jr. of Atlanta, Fred Shuttlesworth of Birmingham, and Kelly Miller Smith of Nashville. In Mississippi, King’s Southern Christian Leadership Conference led no campaigns against segregation. Also, unlike other southern states, Mississippi’s African American population approached 40 percent of the total in the 1960s, and blacks outnumbered whites in many counties. This demographic meant that the state’s activists took voting rights, not desegregation, as their primary goal. In much of Mississippi, if blacks could vote, they could rule.
The story of civil rights in Mississippi was the story of local people refusing to continue to quietly accept segregation and disfranchisement. In Local People: The Struggle for Civil Rights in Mississippi (1993), Dittmer gracefully recounts how local people, encouraged by student activists, most often with the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and the Congress of Racial Equality, gradually but tirelessly fought for civil rights in the face of unrelenting white violence. Dittmer argues that without local people to support, house, and even protect the student activists, the struggle for civil rights in Mississippi would likely not have occurred in the 1960s and certainly would not have succeeded. Dittmer also argues that it is impossible to overstate the importance of the leadership provided by local people. In virtually every town where student activists worked, the civil rights cause was advanced by local leaders—perhaps most notably Fannie Lou Hamer of Sunflower County. Without Dittmer’s work in Local People, the determination, bravery, and leadership provided by Annie Devine, Unita Blackwell, Victoria Gray Adams, and others would be far less renowned. Local People received three major book awards: the 1994 Lillian Smith Book Award, the 1995 Bancroft Prize, and the 1995 McLemore Prize.
In addition to Local People, Dittmer has authored Black Georgia in the Progressive Era (1977) and The Good Doctors: The Medical Committee for Human Rights, Race, and the Politics of Health Care in America (2009). He and Danielle L. McGuire served as coeditors of Freedom Rights: New Perspectives on the Civil Rights Movement (2011). Dittmer has received several research fellowships as well as teaching awards. In 2010 DePauw created the John Dittmer Award to recognize the graduating history major with the highest grade point average.

When taking a macro picture the lens is usually very close to the subject. In some cases less then an Inch. Depth of Field (DOF) can be as shallow as two or three millimeters. The Auto-focus mechanism can not always detect what is most important to you in a macro shot – if it is not the center, you are better off making the decision yourself.
The more expensive your camera body is the faster is the AF sensor it has. If you have a fast lens, your autofocus will be even faster. But even the fastest focus engine can not always compete with fast action shots.
Sometime auto focus is not really an option at all. if you want to benefit some of the fine old lenses, you may find that they do not have auto focus capability at all or that they are not compatible with your SLR autofocus system.
For example, if you want to use the razor Nikkor 28mm f/2.8 lens you have no choice – you must go manual.
It is hard for the autofocus sensor to focus in low light. Even fast lenses with wide apertures can have a hard time in a dark room like a church or a cave.
Sometimes you want to have some artistic control over in a particular picture and create a blur effect for artistic reasons.
You may want to have the entire picture out of focus or have a negligible, almost off the frame object, in focus. In either case, moat auto focus mechanism will not allow you to perform the first and will give you a hard time achieving the second.
Have you ever wondered how the take those stunning nature shots that have both the nice rocks at the close front and the water fall at the far back sharp. Hyper Focal Distance is a photography term used to note the point that if you set your focus to it, you will gain the most Depth of Field front to back.
Jeff from has a great Hyper Focal Distance tutorial, which is recommended both for the technical enthusiastic and starting nature photographer.
When taking a panning picture, you have to follow a moving subject. One way to deal with the movement is to set your focus mode to AF-C (continuous auto focus), another is to rapidly half-press the shutter release.
Lensbabies are lots of fun. they give a nice shallow focus effect.
Lensbabies do that by having a flexible mount which imitates tilt/shift lens.
Just like old lenses, Lensbabies are manual focus only. On the other hand, this is just what you’d expect from a lens baby – you make the artistic call, including setting the focus point.
When Stitching a panorama it is important that all the pictures in the panorama will have the same parameters. Of course this include focal length and zoom; but you also need to place the following settings on manual: White balance; aperture, shutter, ISO and exposure in general.

If you ever have the chance to stay at, get married at, or even SHOOT at The Oregon Garden Resort in Silverton, Oregon, you will understand what a freaking dream it is to be there. It is truly an out of this world experience! So when I had the opportunity to shoot alongside Jessica Ash Photography & Film in Silverton, Oregon to photograph the gorgeous Haak wedding, I was beyond thrilled!
Daniel and Jeremy had a truly enchanting and magical wedding at The Oregon Garden Resort in Silverton, Oregon. It was truly beyond stunning from decor to scenery to each beautiful moment throughout the entire day. Along with the fabulous scenery including all of the greenery and fresh florals in bloom, the decor and theme Daniel and Jeremy chose for their special day was seriously SO COOL. Daniel and Jeremy are both flight attendants so the theme for their big day was travel (and of course, airplanes!). The blue tones and travel themed decor was the perfect mix of elegance and quirk.
From their romantic ceremony under the gazebo to the heartfelt speeches told at their exquisite reception, it was a day filled with love, laughter, and a wonderful start to happily ever after for Daniel and Jeremy. Coming from New Mexico, I am accustomed to the beauty of the desert and southwest wedding customs, but Oregon was absolutely life changing. The richness of the greenery, the beauty of the bodacious blooms that surrounded us, and the awesomeness that surrounded us was truly amazing.
To see more from the gorgeous Haak wedding at The Oregon Garden Resort in Silverton, Oregon make sure to scroll down and feast your eyeballs on all the beauty!

Quartzite, dendrite, onyx, obsidian...fill your pockets.
What can be collected on Public Lands?
In general, a person may collect reasonable amounts of gemstones and rocks from public lands for recreational purposes or personal use. If rocks and mineral specimens are collected for sale or commercial use, a permit must be obtained (under provisions of the Minerals Act), from the BLM Field Office involved. In Utah's West Desert, for instance, administered by the BLM's Richfield Office, Utah's rare Topaz Gemstone can be found, and in the BLM's Salt Lake District, the popular Dugway Geode can be collected, both in "reasonable amounts for recreational purposes or personal use" without obtaining any special permission.
Invertebrate fossils are those without backbones I.e., trilobites, snails, clams, insects, etc. Common invertebrate fossils (those which occur in large numbers throughout a large area) may be collected in reasonable quantities for recreational purposes. Again, no permit is required unless invertebrate fossils are intended for sale or commercial use.
Petrified wood can be collected for personal non-commercial uses also, but there are specific daily and yearly limits even for personal use. Collectors taking more than their share are rapidly depleting the better petrified wood localities. Consequently, individuals without permits are allowed to take only a limit of 250 pounds per calendar year. A permit is required if the petrified wood collected is to be used for sale or commercial use. No explosives or powder equipment such as tractors, bulldozers, plows, or power shovels may be used under any circumstances! Due to restrictions on petrified wood collecting on some public lands, please check with the local BLM office before you begin.
What cannot be collected on public lands?
Vertebrate fossils are those with backbones. Vertebrate fossils, such as dinosaurs, turtles, mammals and fish, cannot be collected from public lands except by permit only! These permits are issued by the Secretary of the Interior specifically to properly accredited museums, universities and other institutions or their representatives.
In your explorations of the public lands, by all means enjoy and appreciate the wealth of our nation's cultural heritage. Wonder at the beauty and craftsmanship found in structures and artifacts. Imagine the lives led by those who lived here before us, and learn. But, please, show respect for those early people, and leave everything in its place. All historic and prehistoric remains found on public lands are protected by law. Report new or unusual finds (including human skeletal remains) to he nearest BLM office.
Under no circumstances will artifacts of any kind, including arrowheads, points, feathers, whole or broken pots, stone tools, basketry, or even old bottles be distributed or removed from their location on public lands. Human remains, and all materials associated with human remains, may not be disturbed or removed from public lands. Commercial use, sale, or barter of human remains or artifacts of any kind taken from public lands is illegal and punishable by law.
Historic and prehistoric remains on federal (public) lands have been protected by law since 1906. The Preservation of American Antiquities Act of 1906 provides for the protection of Indian ruins, stating that a person may not, without permission, "appropriate, excavate, injure, or destroy any historic or prehistoric ruin or monument, or any object on antiquity" on lands under Federal government control. Regulations implemented under the authority of The Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) also prohibit disturbance of these resources (43 Code of Federal Regulations Part 8365.1-4(a)). Historic and archeological resources 50 years old or older are covered by these two laws.
A more recent Federal law, the Archaeological resources Protection Act of 1979 (ARPA), provides civil and criminal penalties for excavation, destruction, vandalism, or removal of archeological resources (historic and prehistoric) from public lands. Anything 10 years or older is covered by this law. Criminal penalties of up to $100,000 in fines and/or five years in prison are possible upon conviction. Civil and criminal damages may also be assessed, based on the value of the destroyed or stolen remains. ARAP provides for civil confiscation of vehicles and other personal property used to carry out the violation, and provides for payment of rewards for information leading to convictions. For your own protection, do not attempt to apprehend perpetrators yourself, but license numbers, times, dates, descriptions, (photographs or video tape would be nice) if safely collectable from an equitable distance, should be reported to the closest local Federal authorities and nearest BLM office.
To report illegal collecting or vandalism call, 1-800-722-3998.
Please remember not to leave any modern day artifacts or human remains of your own (haul out your trash from remote areas), take only photographs and leave only footprints on designated paths.

A growing number of high-throughput, low-latency business data centres have relied on hard disk drives (HDDs) in their servers and are now facing performance bottlenecks. Today, they envisage Solid State Drives (SSDs) as a viable storage solution that can increase the performance, efficiency, and reliability of their data centres while lowering operating costs (OpEx).
To understand the differences between each SSD class, we first need to distinguish between the two key components of an SSD, the Flash Storage Controller and the nonvolatile NAND flash memory used to store data.
Choosing the right SSD storage device for a company’s data centre can be a tedious learning process, in which a variety of different SSD vendors and product types need to be tested for suitability, as not all SSDs and NAND flash memories are made in the same way.
SSDs are manufactured for easy-to-install replacement or supplementation of magnetic disk-based hard drives (HDD) and come in many different form factors, including 2.5 inches, and with communication protocols / interfaces, including Serial ATA (SATA), Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and, more recently, PCIe to transfer data to or from the central processing unit (CPU) of a server.
Although SSDs are easy to install, it is not guaranteed that they will all be suitable for the applications the company has selected them for the long term. If SSDs wear out prematurely because they are over-written, sustained write power is significantly lower during their expected lifetime, or they cause extra latency in the storage array and therefore need to be replaced early, the cost of a mis-selected SSD can often negate all of their original cost savings and performance benefits.
To help you decide on your next purchase of spare storage or additional storage for a corporate data centre, this study looks at the three key features that distinguish an enterprise-class SSD from a client-class SSD: Performance, reliability, and endurance.
By using multi-channel architecture and parallel access from the SSD controller to the NAND flash chips, SSDs can achieve incredibly high read and write speeds for both sequential and random CPU data queries.
The typical scenario of a data centre is the processing of millions of bytes of random company data, including technical CAD drawings and seismic analysis data (e.g., Big Data), or customers worldwide access to banking transactions (e.g., OLTP). Access to the storage devices must be done with the lowest latency, and it may also be necessary for many customers to have access to the same data at the same time, without reducing response times. User experience is based on low latency, which increases user productivity.
A client application affects only one user or application, and the tolerance limit between the minimum and the maximum response time (or latency) for user or system activities is higher.
Mismatched performance can adversely affect complex SSD storage arrays (such as Network Attached Storage, Direct Attached Storage, or Storage Area Network) and wreak havoc on storage array latency, sustained performance, and ultimately, service quality, that is perceived by users.
Unlike client SSDs, enterprise-class SSDs are not only optimized for peak performance in the first few seconds of access but also provide greater stable performance over longer periods of time by using a larger, oversized area (OP). For more information about each drive, visit the Kingston Website under Enterprise SSDs.
This ensures that the performance of the storage array is consistent with the organisation’s expected quality of service (QoS), even at peak loads.
There are a number of issues associated with NAND flash memory, the two most important ones being limited life expectancy, as NAND flash cells wear out during repeated writes, as well as a normal occurring error rate.
Each NAND flash die is tested by silicon wafers during the manufacturing process of a NAND flash memory and labeled with a bit raw error rate (BER or RBER). The BER defines the rate at which normally occurring bit errors occur in the NAND flash without compensation by the Error Correction Code (ECC) and that the SSD controllers correct with spontaneous Advanced ECC (usually called by different SSD controller manufacturers either BCH ECC, or Strong ECC or LDPC). without interrupting user or system access.
Copyright JEDEC. Reprinted with permission from JEDEC.
With the UBER requirements for SSDs proposed by the JEDEC, it is assumed when comparing enterprise SSDs to client SSDs, that with a 1-bit error ratio of 10 quadrillion bits (~ 1.11 petabytes), only 1 unrecoverable bit error occurs at an enterprise SSD, unlike client SSDs, where 1 bit error is processed per 1 quadrillion bits (~ 0.11 petabytes).
Kingston Enterprise SSDs also have additional technologies that allow the recovery of corrupted data blocks with parity data stored in other NAND dies (similar to RAID drives, which allows for the recovery of certain blocks associated with the parity data, that is stored in other blocks, for a rebuild).
To complement the redundant data burst recovery technologies in Kingston Enterprise SSDs, periodic checkpointing, Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC), and ECC error correction are also implemented in an end-to-end internal backup system to ensure the integrity of the data from the host over the flash and back to the host. End-to-end privacy means that data received from the host is checked for integrity as it is stored in the internal cache of the SSD and when written or rendered by the NAND storage areas.
Similar to improved ECC protection against bit errors in enterprise-class SSDs, SSDs also include power loss detection circuitry that manages the power storage capacitors on the SSDs. Powerfail support in hardware monitors the incoming power to the SSD and temporarily powers the SSD circuits with tantalum capacitors during a surprising power loss to complete internal or external pending writes before the SSDs turn off. Powerfail protection circuits are typically required for applications where data loss is irreversible.
Powerfail protection can also be implemented in the SSD firmware by frequently deleting data in the SSD controller cache areas (eg, its FTranslation layer table) to the NAND memory. While this does not ensure that no data is lost during a power outage, it attempts to minimize the effects of insecure power outages. Firmware power fail protection also ensures that the SSD is unlikely to be inoperable after an insecure shutdown.
In many situations, using Software Defined Storage or server clustering can reduce the need for hardware-based powerfail support because all data is replicated to a separate and stand-alone storage device on a different server or servers. Web-scale data centers often relinquish powerfail support and use software-defined storage on RAID servers to effectively store redundant copies of the same data.
In the second and final part of this article that we will publish next week, we show the differences in endurance between the two SSD classes and give a short summary of the results found.

It’s time for Tabletop Report! For the uninitiated, Tabletop Report is a new series chronicling the adventures of my DnD group as I run them through a custom campaign and ruleset based off of Microsoft’s Gears of War universe.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Gears of War, and I’m totally not claiming otherwise. I just really love the universe, and have wanted to run a campaign set in it for the longest time. The system I built is entirely my own, and this game is a test-run of its viability as a full tabletop system.
This is the report summary for session 5. Prior sessions will be listed before the break if you need to catch up. Some knowledge of Gears of War‘s greater universe may be required. Now, let’s see what happened to our players after last week!
When we’d last left our players, they’d just finished helping Ray of Ray’s Scrapyard clear out a particularly bothersome infestation of Wild Tickers, and in return collected some weapons better than the Civil Defense stuff they were using. They’d also leveled, and the first near hour of the session simply became the group leveling and then figuring out exactly how to divvy up the loot they’d collected (along with a bit of confusion, as we’d somehow lost a piece of paper detailing part of their inventory).
Dividing up the inventory was pretty key, as the group had managed to come out ahead with a couple of pretty decent weapons … at least compared to what they already had. Of particular interest to the group was a battered Hammerburst MK I rifle (the battering meant that it was less accurate and took longer to reload) and a battered Boltok Pistol (dealt damage to the player firing it). While the Boltok was divvied out fairly quickly, multiple players were interested in the battered Hammerburst, and it took a bit for them to work it down to one player. A few other players picked up the Snub pistols, and one player took a Police Rifle (which is a stripped down MK 1 Lancer) and affixed his somewhat broken bayonet to it. They then spent the rest of the next two days the group was camped at Ray’s practicing with it (which means I need to give them some skills in that regard).
Oh, yeah, the group also spent the next two days at Ray’s because the group’s armorer wanted to spend some time putting some scrap ablative armor together. She was a little bummed about the amount of time it was going to take, but eventually settled for building two ablative upper-arm pauldrons (for guarding the front side of your body while firing) and some extra ablative armor for her own police vest.
While she was doing that, another player assembled a sturdy wagon out of materials from the scrapyard, while the team’s roboticist studied Ray’s sentry guns and began putting together plans to build his own, and the party’s designated map-keeper got information from Ray on the surrounding area and, most importantly, the location of nearby radio towers that Ray wanted the group to set his hijacking relays on.
At this point, the group got into another debate, as the various members of the party all had different ideas about where to go next. Some wanted to head northwest to a large town called Clint that was situated near a major highway fork and therefore home to a large truck stop, while others wanted to head northeast instead toward Jin, a smaller town that’s main claim to fame, at least as Ray put it, was a food-processing plant and some tourism. Still again other party members wanted to head straight east, into the mountains and toward a remote and unmanned large radio tower in the mountains that also was home to a remote weather monitoring station—which would allow the party to get weather updates for the region via radios. If they had any, which they didn’t.
Lastly, some of the party wanted to go back south to Bedel and hook up the radio station there first as a test, as well as check the town for any more supplies they could make use of, which included—get this—bicycles.
See, the party wanted a faster method of transport, but at the same time, had been warned about car engines attracting the Locust (which isn’t entirely accurate, but also not false, as it does raise the chance of a random Locust patrol finding them). So, after talking about it for a while, they decided that what they needed was a bunch of mountain bikes!
Pretty clever on their part. And so with the bikes as a carrot and some really bad inspire skill checks on the part of those who wanted to go elsewhere, the group elected to head south back to Bedel.
Amusingly enough, they avoided the stranded camp there and instead beelined for the radio station. They found it abandoned but still sound and running an emergency test signal. They spent some rolls wiring Ray’s hijacker into the main relay, and presto, the station’s radio tower was theirs. Well, Ray’s. They spent some time listening for signals, but didn’t find much outside of some odd, beeping tones and a distant COG-related channel that faded in and out. Bored, they holed up for the night and set a watch.
That night, Keela’s stranded camp got hit. The gunfire alerted their watch, who then woke the party leader, who, not knowing anything other than “someone’s shooting over there,” decided to stay put. After a few minutes the gunfire died out, and the party rested until morning, at which point their shopping trip commenced.
A general store, where they collected more binoculars and some hardware. And one player took ever dollar they could find from the registers.
A hobby shop, where they took every radio-controlled car they could find (six in total).
A bike shop, where they found four mountain bikes (SCORE!) and two bike trailers, plus some bike helmets that could work as armor.
A gun shop, where they found some ammo, but unsurprisingly everything else had already been looted.
After this successful trip, they finally went to see what had happened at the old school and found that during the night a few Locust had attacked the place, and the camp had lost a few people before killing their attackers. They’d then burned the bodies, and were using the ash on their garden beds. The camp guards were a little down as a result … though very happy that they had radio contact with Ray again. Upon finding out that the group had done that, they were even happier. Though they offered to let the group stay the night, the group declined and pushed out for Ray’s once more … after debating, right in front of the guard, whether or not the camp was doomed and how likely the Locust were to come back.
One guard’s alarmed complaint of “Uh, you know we can hear you, right?” was ignored. Poor Keela camp. They’re actually pretty nice, but the group wants nothing to do with them, which is hilarious.
Anyway, the group made it back to Ray’s shortly after dark without incident (had a number on a dice roll been 1 digit lower, however …) and decided to push for the east radio tower, the one in the mountains with the weather monitor station, next. But it was late, and so after a long session of roleplaying, they called it good.
Thanks for reading, and I hope you’re enjoying the adventure so far!

Well, what brand is the lower?
seconding Palmetto State, just don't be in a hurry. I got mine pretty quick but some people are reporting long waits.
Note almost all their junk shows it being out of stock, just check it daily for a week and sooner or later one will pop up "on sale" that meets your needs in your price range.
You can get a model 1 sales upper within that budget. Some people talk bad about them, I have 1k trouble free rounds in mine, using a bcm bcg.
If you go Model 1 try to get it at a gun show to avoid the shipping rates ($50 if I recall).

“Making Ends Meet,” a report released by the California Budget Project (CBP) on June 24 estimates that a family of four with two working parents in California needs an annual income of $75,000 to cover basic needs.
To calculate expenses, CBP used federal and state data for child care, food, health care, taxes and transportation. CBP also calculated needs for different family sizes such as one working parent with two children, a single working parent with two children and single adults. A family of four with one working parent needs $54,039 in annual income; a single parent with two children needs $64,239 and a single adult $30,445 each year. The report did not include expenses for cable television, for mobile or smart phones, or for only a single land line.
The CBP report (PDF) calculated that for a hypothetical family of four with two working adults, one infant and one school-age child, housing, child care, taxes and health insurance were the top four household expenses.
The report assumed that a two working parent family with two children would pay $1,021 per month for health insurance from the private market. While half of California workers younger than 65 have employer-based health insurance with an average monthly cost of $283 (all people over 65 are covered by Medicare – single-payer health insurance administered by the federal government), many lower-income workers do not have employee-sponsored health insurance. According to the report, if one parent had employee-based health insurance, they could save an estimated $10,000 annually. Moreover, the employer-based health insurance is tax-free, increasing the benefit to families even more.
In the Ventura County Star, executive director of the California Budget Project Jean Ross said that the report underscores the importance of employer-sponsored health insurance in making ends meet. The report also aims to draw attention to possible effects of the proposed cuts to health care, welfare and other safety net services included in Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s latest budget plan which also slashes funding for child-care.
Moreover, the state’s tax increases last year – the reduction in the dependent tax credit and the increase in personal income tax rates – substantially boosted the amount of California income taxes owed by low-income and poor families. For example, the total amount of personal income taxes owed by taxpayers with adjusted gross incomes between $10,001 and $20,000 increased by 17.7 percent between 2008 and 2009, while the taxes owed by taxpayers with incomes between $20,001 and $50,000 rose by 2.8 percent.
On the other hand, tax liability for high-income taxpayers actually declined. The increase in the state’s sales tax rate and the vehicles licensing fee (VLF) also disproportionately affected low-income families since lower-income taxpayers pay a greater share of their incomes in sales taxes and the VLF.
The report also calculated income needed for different size families in all 58 of the state’s counties which varied widely from county to county. For example, in San Francisco, a single person needs to earn $32,000 annually while a family of four with two working parents must earn $84,000. In Fresno, a single person must earn $26,533 and a family of four with two children must earn $66,963.

With a New Cold War mentality in Whitehall, Rob Brown suggests we treat MoD spin with the same skepticism as that from Moscow.
For most of us the clocks went forward an hour at the weekend to usher in the start of British summer time. But for some folk they went back about five decades – to the darkest period of the Cold War – as Typhoon fighter jets were “scrambled” from RAF Lossiemouth to “intercept” Russian aircraft over the North Sea.
I might have made a frightened dash for Scotland’s Secret Bunker near St. Andrews had I not collapsed in a heap of laughter when I read in the Daily Express that a ‘military source’ described this denouement as “an outrageous bid to further destabilise the nation” on Brexit Day.
How strange then that such ‘incursions’ were being regularly reported long before Boris and Farage pulled off their wafer-thin referendum triumph. According to a statement attributed last summer to the minister of state for the armed forces, Mark Lancaster, the RAF has had to scramble jets to intercept Russian military aircraft more than 80 times over the last decade.
I almost choked on a Cornish pasty when I was heading up a journalism school down in Falmouth and heard about one such reported incident off the coast of Cornwall. The only difference was the Typhoons that time were launched from RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire.
Perhaps we shall have to fight them on the beaches as well as up in the sky? The Royal Navy claims to have responded to Russian military ships approaching UK territorial waters 33 times in 2017 compared to just once in 2010.
We’re in a “new age of warfare”, according to the defence secretary, who tells us to “look at Russia’s resurgence under President Putin”. This is standard issue sabre-rattling from neocon hawks who have yearned for a New Cold War almost from the moment the Berlin Wall was reduced to rubble.
Gavin Williamson’s lauding of “our brave RAF pilots” for having “shown again that we are ready to respond to any threat to the UK” made it sound as though they were performing the same valiant feats as the men who heroically manned Spitfires in the Battle of Britain. But nobody presently based on the Moray Firth has engaged in any perilous encounter, far less aerial combat, with any Russian adversary.
By repeatedly scrambling fighter jets from various bases, the Ministry of Defence has been conjuring up phantom duels in our imaginations as part of its ongoing struggle for a substantially bigger budget. It is time our minds were unscrambled.
The “increasing aggressiveness” Williamson attributed to Putin wasn’t coming on this occasion from the judo wrestler in the Kremlin but from himself as he arm-wrestled Philip Hammond for more money for the MoD.
War games in Whitehall are almost as rough as those currently underway across the far north of Scotland.The boys need to play with their toys and Scotland provides a splendid biannual playground for such earnest amusement. Joint Warrior they call it because it is a tri-service exercise involving the RAF, the Royal Navy and the British Army.
Together with comrades-in-arms from other Nato states, British servicemen are currently spending a full fortnight launching mock airborne assaults and amphibious landings. There’s also training in counter-insurgency, counter-piracy and interstate warfare, as well as live fire exercises on the weapon range at Cape Wrath.
All sounds such spiffing fun it’s a wonder the highlights don’t get televised by the BBC, with Huw Edwards providing the solemn, sonorous commentary as he does so well on Remembrance Sunday or for Royal Weddings.
Seemingly the best bit is when Russian aircraft streak along the fringes of Britain’s sovereign airspace to try to sneak a look at what’s going on in the bens and glens. But the only footage of that is shot by Putin’s propagandists, apparently, and supplied exclusively to RT (possibly for Alex Salmond’s amusement in between his studio recordings).
All the British media receive from the MoD are grainy aerial photos of RAF Typhoons or Voyagers monitoring Russian Blackjacks. Still, more than enough to get graphic artists on the Daily Mail and The Sun scrambling to produce ‘Aggression of the Bear’ side-panels to accompany panting news analysis pieces about Moscow’s military muscle-flexing.
Jingoism and journalism have been lusty bedfellows since the golden age of Fleet Street. And the relationship has not withered since the last ink-stained hacks abandoned their old battered typewriters for characterless computerised newsrooms and tonier watering holes.
Not that the outpourings of what was once called the White Commonwealth Press matter nearly so much nowadays. Britain’s dominant source of news – north as well as south of the Border – remains by far the BBC. And Britain’s semi-state broadcasting service can always be counted upon to pump out the official MoD line.
What about Russia’s response to such gung-ho rhetoric? You guessed it – not a single syllable, on any of its mushrooming channels and radio stations or on its sprawling website. This is par for the course: very rarely do we hear the Kremlin’s side of this long running story, despite the fact it has been frequently proffered.
Reuters did report the Russian embassy in London scolding Britain for plotting to undermine Moscow’s international image. “We consider these and similar statements as a PR exercise, meant to demonstrate some assumed ‘aggressiveness’ from Russia, as well as panache of certain British politicians,” said its spokesman.
“Russian planes carry out the routine flights in international airspace over the North, Barents and Norwegian seas. This doesn’t sound scary or, in fact, interesting to the public. But, with some creativity and juggling of words, the story sounds quite different.
Kremlin spin doctors might not ooze massive credibility when they comment on Crimea or Chechnya – or on the murder of opposition politicians and probing journalists in Moscow – but a cursory read between the lines of MoD statements and briefings soon reveals that the above rebuttals by Russia are, for once, soundly based.
Failure to report that counter-narrative renders the BBC no more reliable than RT. In fact, it makes our so-called public service broadcaster almost as untrustworthy as the old Soviet Communist Party’s propaganda sheets. At least the Russians weren’t legally compelled to purchase an annual license to fund Pravda.
The latest yarn about RAF fighter jets having to be scrambled from Lossiemouth probably is loosely connected to Brexit and the further destabilization of the Anglo-Scottish Union resulting from that bourach. Doubtless the intended outcome – by the MoD – is that those pesky Scot Nats will all pipe down again and be eternally grateful for still being an integral part of a leading world power that can repel such aerial aggression.
It’s time for Scotland to set aside such retro anti-Red scaremongering and reclaim her land, sea and sky. Then let’s see who launches incursions into our sovereign airspace and territorial waters. If history and geography are our guides, any threat to our national security is likely to stem from somewhere a lot nearer to us than Russia.
I wonder who else the British army has pictures of that they use for target practice?
I imagine anyone whose politics are left of Genghis Khan would be in the frame,so to speak.
On that basis,Putin probably wouldn’t qualify.
The British armed forces and HM Press are essentially the enforcer for the right wing British establishment.
And, where will the four nuclear dildos based at Faslane go?
Seems more than a coincidence that the particular regiment who carried out the massacres of civilians in Bloody Sunday and Coalsland in NI is the same regiment caught training shooting at pictures of Jeremy Corbyn.
Indeed, I think one can take it that this particular regiment is fully trained, armed and ready to do exactly the same bidding again should separists need taught a lesson. Nicola Sturgeon, Alex Salmond or indeed anyone else independence minded take heed. Ultimately, if vote manipulation by the dark arts services doesn’t work this is how the U.K. will react against Scottish Independence.

For et fantastisk sted. Hotellet var enestående, men litt større basseng kunne det ha vært. Rommene var delikate og store. Betjeningen var helt enestående og service var topp. Hit kommer jeg gjerne igjen. Obs! Kun 5 min gange inn til butikkene og alle de koselige restaurantene.
Kjempe bra hotell med sentral beliggenhet.
Bra service, veldig fin plass og hyggelig hotell !

What type of plug does this hotel use? From United States and will need to purchase an adapter. Thank you.
How are the views? Having a clear seaview is very important to me. How would u rate the views from the rooms?
est ce un hôtel décontracté ou un hôtel plutôt chic ?
we are considering your hotel for our honeymoon in July. just to clarify... this is not an inclusive resort, correct.? So are there kitchens in the rooms?.or must you buy your lunches and dinners? thank you!
Not as private. I’d recommend staying at Liliam villas Santorini on the caldera, if you want privacy and you can get a villa with private pool/jacuzzi.

Kodak Black in court on April 26, 2017 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Kodak Black recently celebrated completing his required anger management courses but now, his celebration has been cut short. On Monday (Oct. 9), Black was indicted on first-degree sexual conduct charges by a grand jury in Florence County, South Carolina.
Black, born Dieuson Octave, was arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman back in February 2016 at the Comfort Inn & Suites around the time the rapper was set to perform at a local nightclub. WPDE reports that the woman first reported the incident to a school nurse who then presented the allegations to the Florence County Sheriff’s office.
The Florida native is prohibited from commenting on the situation whether in print, digital, or his social media platforms and is not allowed to contact the victim nor the victim’s family.

Tom Brady has attempted to clarify comments that surfaced this week in which he expressed how the last few seasons “weren’t enjoyable” for him.
The surprising remarks from the New England Patriots quarterback originally came to light in the epilogue installment of his Facebook documentary, “Tom Vs. Time,” which premiered Wednesday.
“The last couple of years, a lot of parts about football weren’t enjoyable when they should have been,” Brady said in part in the documentary.
Such candid remarks not surprisingly generated great interest and inspired rampant speculation. It’s not surprising, then, that said enlightening remarks were a topic of conversation during Brady’s interview with Jim Gray that aired on Westwood One Radio on Thursday night.
“I love football — I love the sport, I love being on the field, I love playing the game — I think sometimes it can feel like there are a lot of other obligations that come along with football,” Brady told Gray in the NFL Opening Night interview. “If you let those take too much of an impact or toll, you can bring those onto the field.
The widely held assumption was that Brady’s original comments may have been a subtle allusion to the purported issues allegedly plaguing the Patriots. Said rumors of alleged organizational dysfunction originally were brought to light in a bombshell ESPN report last season; although all involved parties, including Brady, Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft vehemently denied the veracity of the reporting.
Brady obviously would never disclose such a thing explicitly, so his clarifying remarks Thursday hardly came as a shock.

Spring is almost upon us! After a chilly winter, it’s exciting to think about getting outside and preparing your lawn and garden for spring and summer. Though there are many things you can do to beautify your property this spring, here are the three most important things that we recommend our clients cross off their to-do lists as the spring brings warmer weather.
Prep, prune, and clean up the yard. Winter can do serious damage to trees, bushes, flowers, and lawns. Now is the time to walk your yard and pick up fallen sticks and branches, as well as get rid of any hangabout leaves from last fall, pick up trash, and identify which plants to prune. Ornamental grasses, green and flowering bushes, and roses should all be pruned back during the spring. Don’t get too ambitious with the pruning equipment though! Avoid cutting back fall-blooming plants such as azaleas and forsythias until after they’ve bloomed so as not to damage them.
Weeding can also be included in this prep and cleanup phase. Weeds can still grow over winter, and once the warmer weather kicks in, you’ll begin to notice a lot more weeds with each passing day. Once your yard is cleaned, pruned, and prepped, you can move onto a few other integral tasks for spring.
Mulch. After your yard is cleaned up, it’s a great time to mulch. There are many benefits to laying mulch including suppressing weeds and preventing soil erosion. Additionally, mulch can make your flowers and trees pop. Mulch comes in many different colors, textures, and forms. For example, you can encircle your trees with pine needles for a simple, clean look, or you can lay black deco mulch in your flower beds for eye-catching style and to keep your soil in place and weeds at bay. A professional landscaper can make sure you choose the right mulch, help you calculate exactly how much you’ll need for optimal results, and lay it in the most stylish and efficient way.
Service or install an irrigation system. If you haven’t already installed an irrigation system, now is the perfect time to do so. There are many benefits to installing an irrigation system, like saving time, water, and money, but it’s important to select the right system or systems for your property. Sprinklers can cover a wide area, and drip irrigation systems can deliver water in a more targeted manner, saving water and minimizing runoff and evaporation.
If you already have an irrigation system, wonderful! Just don’t forget to have it professionally serviced so you can ensure you’re getting the most bang for your buck, as well as keeping your yard as beautiful as possible. With the right system for your property set up in the best way, you can save hundreds of dollars in water costs while beautifying and hydrating your lawn and garden beds.
What other important things do you do in the spring to prepare your yard for the warmer months ahead? Call us to get these three items checked off your to-do list, and let us know what else we can help you with!

University prepared to handle larger-than-predicted class.
Administrators across the University are prepared for issues that may arise from an increase in student enrollment this year of about 800 to 1,000 students.
The entering class of 2016 is expected to be between 8,000 and 8,500 students. The University expected 46 to 47 percent of students offered admissions to accept for fall 2012, but 51 percent are currently planning to attend.
Kedra Ishop, vice provost and director of admissions, said the admissions office was predicting 7,400 to 7,600 students to accept enrollment. In the last five years, freshmen fall admission numbers were approximately between 7500 and 7900. But historically, from 1998 to 2002, the freshman admission numbers were more than 8000 — the University admitted 8788 in 2000.
“A 4 to 5 percent increase this year was a tremendous jump,” Ishop said.
Ishop said the University admits too many students similar to the way airlines overbook passengers — because it knows a certain number of students will decline. This allows UT to use a small waitlist, unlike other universities that maintain large waitlists that are almost the size of an incoming class, Ishop said.
Ishop said there were changes in efforts during student recruitment to increase the yield rate and enroll more top prospects. Ishop said while this means the school admits a strong class, it also means historical trends are less reliable in predicting yield rates.
With this increase in enrollment, the School of Undergraduate Studies is expecting a 66 percent increase in students and the “undeclared” major may become the largest major on campus, according to David Spight, assistant dean for advising in the School of Undergraduate Studies.
Because of this, David Laude, the newly appointed senior vice provost of Enrollment and Graduation Management, said a lot of the focus for the incoming class will be assisting the school.
“That means making sure there is more advising in place, making sure there is more first year freshman programs for them, and we are already working on that,” Laude said.
Some of these measures are being handled at orientation, where students will spend four hours learning about their colleges instead of the two-and-a-half hours that was in place last year. But for the school year, Spight said the School of Undergraduate Studies increased its number of First-year Interest Groups from 15 to 23 to help handle the greater number of students. The school is also trying to add a Transfer Interest Group to provide similar services to transfer students.
Despite UGS receiving a bulk of the increase, Spight said this was something that is going to positively affect schools and colleges.
New Student Services, the division that runs orientation programs, is also dealing with the increase in student enrollment. The campus is currently hosting about 1,200 freshmen at its first orientation session. Kyle Clark, assistant director of New Student Services, said while the University has handled large orientations before, each orientation will be at maximum capacity.
“So far, this has not presented any challenges for us that were unforeseen,” Clark said.
While UGS and NSS have taken measures to deal with the incoming class, the Division of Housing and Food Services and UT’s Federal Work-Study program are not anticipating the class size to cause problems.
Laurie Mackey, director of DHFS, said housing has more requests than room availability every year, but they are always able to fill every housing request by the end of summer. UT does not require incoming freshmen to live on campus, something several Universities across the country mandate.
Mackey also said the increase will not be a problem for dining centers.
And Linda Morgan, student employment supervisor for the work-study program, said students will still be able to find jobs on campus, through work-study or otherwise. Morgan said work-study is stressing this to students at orientation. Last semester, there were 7,000 undergraduate students who worked on campus and only 1,000 of them were hired through work-study.
“If students want to work then by golly, they’re going to work,” Morgan said.

"However, the constellation for which a meteor shower is named only serves to aid viewers in determining which shower they are viewing on a given night", NASA notes.
Every August, the Earth passes through the debris field of the comet Swift-Tuttle.
Manchester City look set to miss Aymeric Laporte and Benjamin Mendy, according to Physioroom. com . The Spaniard was also asked about his aims for this coming season.
It's called the Perseid meteor shower and it happens every August. This weekend will also bring a new moon, which will make the skies extra dark.
The best time this year to get a glimpse of the Perseid Meteor Shower starts couple of hours after sunset this Sunday, and continues until sunrise Monday.
When is the best time to watch the shower? Let is know in the comments.
The meteor show will peak overnight on Sunday, August 12th and into early Monday morning.
The particles reach high speeds when entering Earth's atmosphere and disintegrate on their way to the ground, leaving a trace of light. It is also advised to allow your night vision to adjust to the dark before giving up, this may take between 20-30 minutes.
But in order to enjoy the sight of "shooting stars", clear skies are necessary. All you need to do is get away from the bright city lights. The name comes from fact that the meteors appear to shoot out from the Perseus constellation.
During the maximum, or peak, Sunday night and early Monday morning, it could be possible to catch as many as 110 meteors in an hour, or almost two per minute on average. "Fireballs are larger explosions of light and color that can persist longer than an average meteor streak".
How to watch the Perseids Meteor Shower in India?
The fires have killed at least eight people, stretching the state's funds and resources thin as firefighters try to gain control. The fire burned slowly for days before winds suddenly whipped it up last week and drove it furiously through brush and timber.
For the City players meanwhile, the focus is all about Sunday's trip to the Emirates Stadium as the season properly kicks into gear.
For everyone else who resumed the rain-delayed second round Saturday morning, it was all about staying close to the leader. If you do that well, and, obviously, in there you're going to make those putts. "I wasn't enjoying my golf, strangely".
Jose Mourinho appointed World Cup victor Paul Pogba as his captain for his sides' Premier League opener against Leicester City. United still got the win despite probably only being at 70%, and everyone who was involved is going to be fitter next time.
The renewed sanctions were among those lifted under a 2015 deal between world powers and Tehran on curbing Iran's nuclear program. Whether to comply with USA sanctions or keep doing business in Iran is a "purely economic decision", one senior official argued.
Chris Woakes is expected to replace all-rounder Ben Stokes, who is standing trial in Bristol on a charge of affray. We should find out what we need to know at approximately 10.30am local time, with play scheduled to start at 11.
When asked about the contract, Freeland said the government "looks forward" to hearing from Riyadh about the future of the deal. Local media also reported that Saudi Arabia had been instructed not to transfer its patients to Canada for medical treatment.
Their mission is scheduled for April 2019. "As a test pilot, it doesn't get any better than this", said Mann, a Naval aviator. NASA has announced the first astronauts who will head to the International Space Station on a commercially built spacecraft.
NASA's Parker Solar Probe will lift off from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida on Saturday, Aug. 11 at 3:33 a.m. That's the steady, supersonic stream of charged particles blasting off the corona and into space in all directions.
He was always upbeat, positive, kind and caring. "His lovely spirit and his love of life will remain with us", the company said. His employers described him on Facebook as "super outgoing, friendly, and an incredibly smart businessman".
Under the deal, he admitted to helping Manafort evade taxes, violate US lobbying laws, and hide foreign bank accounts. Gates said he falsely labeled hundreds of thousands of dollars in income as loans to reduce Manafort's tax liability.
Prosecutors are heading toward the heart of their financial fraud case against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort . President Donald Trump's ex-campaign chairman, as prosecutors further buttressed their tax and bank fraud case against him.

The name field is often the only required one (marked with an asterisk).
It's quite important since it is used as link in overview tables and the search.
Duplicate names are allowed but if they don't differ in e.g. the base type, it could be difficult to find the right one in an overview table.

My plan is to have almost no infantry, just bikes and buggies and planes etc. and as with other threads I've done on other forums I'll be posting WIP pictures along with bits of fluff to go along.
The First 2 units I'm working on are my Warboss on Bike 'Guzrusha Sparktoof' and his retintue of Nob Bikers. My plan is to have 6 Nobs, each one modelled to look like one of the 6 Ork Clans, the idea being that the Warboss lets them keep they're original colours when they joined the Kult of Speed, he cares not for clans, only pure, unadulterated speed!!!!
Like all of my models, this army will have a lot of character in each model. I made this guy (yet to be named) look super casual even though he's going at high speed, He's such an experienced Evil Sun that only the toppest of top speeds gets him excited. He's also got a jerry can and a bunch of extra exhausts. Still a little bit of work to do on him, but not much!!
So, there we go, I'm looking forward to this, I hope you are too!!
Any suggestions, question or comments???
I find it's pretty difficult to make a really striking warbike conversion. The models are so busy "as-is" that the add-ons tend to get lost. Still the boss bike looks good and big which is the main thing! And i like the long teef on the bad Moon, clever idea.
I'll be attaching the gun once the nob is glued on. Painting ork stuff is fun!!
I'm still not sure about the base trim colour, I think it suits but it look a bit odd, but that might just be because I'm used to seeing dark base trims...thoughts?
I've almost finished it!! I only need to add the handlebars, the attack squig, the guns and the Warboss himself!
I added some custom bosspoles, It doesn't show so well in the picture, but the middle one is my attempt at Orkish for "Sparktoof"
Job's a good un, boss. Wouldn't worry too much about the join, a big nob biker will cover that right up.
I've been using that colour for the base trims on me snakebites just lately, so you don't need to convince me on that score.
Thanks, yeah That's what I was hoping with the joins.
IF you pick up some black weathering powder, you can just brush it on at any point (don't need to pull the paint back out) after you finish the model. Goes on like makeup, easy to just play with to get the amount you want (for exhaust/soot).

I'm really happy with how he came out, and I think it works well as a test model!
It doesn't really come across in this picture, but one of his teef is a spark plug, the us the name 'Sparktoof'. He's armed with what can only be described as a 'Kombi-Klaw'. still got quite a bit to do to him.
I figured if he's gonna be riding on a bike at high speed he needs goggles, still need to add straps.
Any suggestions for a name for this guy?
I also finished up the attack squig! Isn't he cute!?!
I've got an effigy of Gork (or possibly Mork) and a scrap pile for looting!!
Other than a few small things I need to fix with GS he's done!!!
He also has a map rolled up and attached to his belt, I'll go into more detail about that when I write a small bit of background for him!
He's quite a bit bigger and bare in mind that the other biker is a Nob too!!
and the objectives, still need to make 4 more!
His bike is a lot shinier than the other one, being a rich Bad Moon, I also gave him one blind eye because that head has a big scar across the eye.
Bad moon bike looks just about as good and shiny as a bad moonz bike should, top stuff mate.
The average Ork Warboss would start a Waaagh for power, or wealth, or to stop boredom. Warboss Guzrusha Sparktoof however, has a fairly unique goal. He is searching for 'Da Big One', An enormous engine from Ork folklore rumoured to be faster and more powerful than any other in the galaxy. Whilst most Orks see 'Da Big One' as a myth, Sparktoofs Speed Freak brain won't let him believe it isn't out there somewhere.
Riding his gigantic Warbike with his faithful attack squig 'Zog'ead', Warboss Sparktoof leads his band of like-minded Orks from planet to planet in search of his prize. After scouring a planet, He crosses the planet off on his map which he keeps attached to his belt at all times, and they set off for the next world.
When he was still just a young Nob known only as Guzrusha, he was hit in the face with a plasma blast while fighting some Armageddon Steel Legion. Though the Dok did his best to fix Guzrusha's injuries, he couldn't fix the fact that Guzrusha had lost the ability to grow his large toof on one side of his mouth. Feeling that his face was missing something, Guzrusha grabbed a broken spark plug from a Mek and jammed it into his empty gum. From then on he became known as Sparktoof.
I did my best to get the details form his backstory onto the model. I like trying to tell a bit of a story with my conversions. Here are some better comparison shots of just how big he is!
As always, C&C more than welcome!!!
I think you've done a great job! Lots of characterful conversion, and the painting is on point.
Some progress on the Buggies!
Great ideas. Love the bikers and especially the new buggies.
i like the buggy very much. all the little plastic card and -rod to connect the parts.
SOme of my bits finally arrived so I made a pretty good start on my Snakebite Nob Biker and his cyboar!!!

Dolphins running back Knowshon Moreno still has quite some time before he’ll be able to get back on the playing field.
Via The Palm Beach Post, Moreno told reporters that it’s likely for him to return the lineup in four weeks. Moreno dislocated his elbow in the second week of the season.
After returning from their London game against the Raiders, a 38-14 win, the Dolphins will be off this Sunday. The next three games after that are against the Packers, Bears and Jaguars. With the four-week timeframe, it’s possible Moreno is ready to go against the Jaguars or the week after against the Chargers.
For now, backup running back Lamar Miller has done a good job filling in for Moreno, who has 277 yards for the season and is averaging 5.7 yards per carry.
