Soaked by rain, thousands of poor ethnic Hmong refugees from Laos were living without shelter in northern Thailand on Tuesday, forced from their homes under a Thai campaign to pressure them to return to their native land.
Landlords in this village said the government set a Monday deadline for them to evict the estimated 6,500 refugees from their bamboo shelters, threatening locals with prison or fines of up to $1,200 for sheltering the Hmong, considered by Thailand to be illegal immigrants.
Thai officials also instructed vendors not to sell food to the refugees, including children, camped out since late Monday by the roadside in Huay Nam Khao, village leaders said.
"They have no place to stay, no place to cook. How can they stand the heat and rain?" asked Sawai Leeprecha, a Thai-Hmong village leader.
Some of the Hmong demonstrated Tuesday outside a government office near the village, located in Phetchabun province about 185 miles north of the Thai capital, Bangkok. But most clustered in groups along the road carrying reed mats and plastic sheeting.
"The Hmong would like to call for the United Nations to help us survive," said Jongli Saeloh, 43. "I would rather die here than be sent back to Laos."
A sign on a fence read: "Please help, we're very hungry."
During the Vietnam War era, the Hmong in Laos helped U.S. forces fight communist insurgents. After the communists took control of Laos in 1975, many Hmong fled, fearing persecution.
Although pressure on the Hmong has eased, military operations against small bands of Hmong insurgents in Laos continue and tensions persist.

Q4-2012 was the second consecutive quarter in which there was a slowdown in growth for retinal procedures.
An FDA advisory panel has been scheduled for April 8 to consider Bausch + Lomb's premarket approval application for the Trulign Toric accommodating IOL.
The Glaukos iStent played a large role in this increase, as the device entered its second full quarter since its US launch.
Dry eye treatments and technologies are expected to generate global revenues of $2.4 billion in 2013, with that tally climbing to nearly $3.0 billion in 2018.
Steady revenue growth of 5 percent is forecast for established retinal surgical devices over the next five years, but we look for new technologies to fuel growth of 6.6 percent overall.

Money as a Motivator
In most organisation, money is often seen as a prime motivator for employee in the government and corporate sectors. It empowers them to perform better and contribute to the organisation objective goals and productivity, however, following the shifting of economic conditions and social values, people's desire is dramatically changing. Most employee may feel that they are affected by internal and external pressures such as increase in consumers tax, price hikes or slow promotion, they will then start looking for better opportunity elsewhere. As a response, the management should look into offer a better benefits that is able to transform employee's lives, and will enable employers to retention talent and experience employees.
Can money really motivate us? Yes and No. Richer people tend to be happier than poorer people, the poor will find themselves being motivated in how can they could success in getting out of the poverty lifestyle through money management, motivation course or skills training and development program. When their financial status have stabilize with adequate personal saving, the level of motivation can be vary for different people. In the other words, they could continue stay as employment in the company until reaching the retirement age or venturing out their own business idea to increase their income, whichever influences them is determine on the risk appetite, experience and capability.
Loyalty, relationships, a particular type of work, or feeling generally comfortable about the organization's culture, can be enough to keep people. It changes the business relationship between employer and employee from doing as little as possible for the pay, to the person wanting to do as much as possible.
Money not the main motivator for foreign workers.
There is a vast difference between foreign workers and professional who seen money as a motivator and the desire for achievement, respectively. Large group of foreign workers are not highly educated; having little opportunity in choosing the job they like, generally, the idea of working oversea earns them a salary that has a higher currency rates and clean environment to work in.
They are much more likely to see the company being driven by efficiency and by minimizing costs by hiring attractive low-wage foreign workers as to balance the budget or cutting manpowers cost, it will have a huge benefit in the long-term when doing it right but it can be a nightmare with training for those who lack of English speaking skill for some job scope except production.
The Art of Motivation Management
As the song from the film Cabaret has it, "Money makes the world go round." Is only a myopic mercenary believes that the human condition is all about money, even though it can make life easier. Society needs businesses to provide employment and build financial stability for individuals, to create, make and distribute products and services, and to take a responsible role in community. Businesses create wealth that can be shared-this is the ultimate "added value."
Jack Welch, one of the best-known American CEOs, is famous for saying "there are three key measures in business-customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction, and cash flow, in that order." More recently, he said that he had the first two round the wrong way-employees should come first. What he recognized was that, at the end of the day, everything depended on people: their capability, motivation, creativity, organizational skills, and leadership. People manage the tangible assets, and they also maintain and grow the intangible ones.

Lesson Summary
There are three options for this lesson, depending on class needs and time available:
1. Frame, Focus, and Reflection (view and discuss): students will discuss the purposes of dance and describe the opening position of a traditional square dance in terms of rotation, translation, and reflection.
2. Short hands-on activity: students will engage in a mirroring activity and then step through the first figure of a traditional square dance and describe the pattern in terms of rotation, reflection, and translation.
3. Project: students will choreograph a dance figure by creating a dance graph with descriptions of rotation, reflection, and translation; perform it for their classmates; and translate a classmate's dance map into a performance.
Time Allotment
1. Frame, Focus, and Reflection (view and discuss): 1 class period
2. Short hands-on activity: 1 class period
3. Project: 2 class periods
Learning Objectives
I can accurately describe movement as a series of rotations, reflections, and translations.
Arts and Humanities
I can discuss the purposes of dance.
I can discuss space as an element of dance, including shape, direction, and pathway.
I can collaborate with my peers to choreograph and perform a dance pattern.
Prep for Teachers
The basic elements of dance are space, time, and force. This lesson focuses on the use of space. As in math, the element of space in dance deals with placement and movement on a plane. Dancers and their "resting" positions can be described, to some extent, in terms of rotations and reflections, and the dance pattern in terms of rotations, reflections, and translations.
This lesson also discusses the purposes of dance—why people dance. The "Grand Square" is a traditional American square dance, which is a type of recreational dance done for fun, socialization, and exercise.
"Rotation, Reflection, and Translation in Dance" handout
Masking or gaffer's tape
(Note: Gaffer's tape stays in place better than masking tape and can be removed easily, leaving no residue or stain. Your school custodian might have some or know where it can be ordered. It can also be purchased online.)
Media Resources
"Grand Square," performed by the Berea College Country Dancers
DanceSense: Understanding Dance
Introductory Activity
Students should have been introduced to the terms rotation, reflection, translation, and line of symmetry.
Learning Activities
Frame, Focus, and Reflection
Ask students why people dance. Allow some time for discussion, then show "Understanding Dance" from 8:50 to the end.
Explain that most dances fall into one of three categories: artistic expression (like ballet or modern dance), ceremonial dance (like some Native American dances that express a spiritual belief), and recreational (dance that is performed for fun, exercise, or socialization).
Tell students they're going to watch a video of a recreational dance, a traditional American square dance.
Explain that the dance is called "Grand Square," and that it is a very symmetrical dance. The square figure, which you'll see several times in the dance, is also danced in English and French square dances, called quadrilles.
Show "Grand Square." (Show the explanation before the dance if you want to, for a cultural setting and basic information about the dance and dancers.) Show the beginning of the dance again, freezing on the opening position.
Distribute "Rotation, Reflection, and Translation in Dance" handout and review the instructions. Have students mark the position of each dancer on the graph, playing close attention to placing the X and Y dancers on the proper side of the axis line. Project the Teacher Version on your Smartboard or project a blank grid and mark the positions of the dancers.
Ask if Couple B is a reflection—or mirror image—of Couple A. Although at first glance the couples appear to be reflections of each other, if you pay attention to the X and Y, it is clear that the positions of X and Y are reversed.
Divide students into small groups with at least two boys and two girls in each group.
Challenge them to create a series of directions that would result in the Y dancers being directly across from and facing each other and the X dancers being directly across from and facing each other. Instruct them to write detailed directions using the terms rotate for turning and translate for moving straight forward in one direction. Tell students that they must indicate the degrees and direction of rotation (such as, "Rotate 90 degrees to the right"). They should work this out on their graph paper and by acting out the movements.
Allow each group to share their solution with the class. One student should read the directions while teammates act out the rotations and translations. Keep track of how many different solutions the students come up with.
Short Activity
Show the beginning (chorus) figure of the video again, just long enough to see each dancer make one square pattern and return to their starting position. Before showing, tell students to focus on one dancer and follow that dancer's movements. As a group, describe the dancer's movements using the terms rotate and translate.
Show the same segment again, asking students to focus on the dancer directly across from the dancer they watched the first time and to notice how the two dancers' movements are mirror images of each other. As a group, describe the second dancer's movements using the terms rotate and translate.
Explain that you are going to practice mirroring. This is an exercise used by dancers and theater artists to help them develop focus and cooperation. Ask students to stand up and face you and to move in an exact mirror image of you. If you raise your right arm, the students should raise their left arms. If you bend to the left, the students should bend to the right. Practice large and small movements staying in one place.
Explain that these movements (bend, push, pull, sway, twist, reach) are nonlocomotor movements. Now, you are going to make a locomotor movement, and you want students to mirror your movement, so they need to be sure that they are in a position where they can step forward and backward. If you step forward leading with your right leg, they should step forward leading with their left leg. Practice stepping forward and back several times.
Next, try rotating 90 degrees and taking a step forward. Then rotate 180 degrees and return to your original position. Ask students to describe what you just did using the terms rotate and translate.
Clear a space large enough for students to stand facing one another in pairs with room to swing their arms. Tell them that one student will lead and the other follow, mirroring their partners exactly. Tell them to use nonlocomotors movements only.
Switch leaders and have them continue making and mirroring nonlocomotor movements.
Tell them to take a step apart from their partner and try some small locomotor movements (no more than one step in any direction, unless you have lots of room).
When they seem comfortable with mirroring, show the video segment one more time and ask them to observe how the dancers who begin directly opposite one another mirror one another's movements.
Try moving through the chorus figure! Select eight students to stand in square dance formation in the classroom. Use tape to "draw" an x and y axis and position the dancers so that each pair is standing at the end of an axis line, four steps from the center. The students at the ends of the y axis will move four steps forward toward the origin first, while the students at the ends of the x axis will separate from each other and move four steps to the outer corners first. Repeat until all students have moved through the pattern. Remember: every dancer is moving in mirror image to their partner and to the dancer directly across from them in the formation.
Show "Elements of Dance" from the beginning to 2:25.
Discuss the shapes in "Grand Square," both the formation of the dancers and the directions and pathways they follow.
Divide class into groups of four and distribute graph paper. Tell each group that they will choreograph a dance figure with four dancers performing geometric dance patterns and record it on graph paper. The dance figure should have 16 steps. Each dancer's movements should be reflected by at least one other dancer. The dance should include rotations and translations. Each dancer should write a description of their movements using the terms rotate, translate, and/or reflect.
Project the "Reflect, Rotate, Translate & Dance!" Scoring Rubric. Discuss your expectations with students. If you want, you can ask for student input in editing the rubric.
Allow time for students to choreograph a dance figure and record it on graph paper and in writing.
Groups will perform their dance patterns for each other.
As an extension, you might ask the groups to exchange dance graphs and descriptions and challenge them to figure out how to perform the other group's dance from the graphs.

Despite advances in the treatment and understanding of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB), as well as advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy the mortality rate of UGIB still remains consistently high. One thought has been that early resuscitation can be the answer to what remains a persistent killer. To prove this point a team of doctors from Maimonides Medical Center tried to figure out what methods work in the intensive resuscitation process and what remains an inefficient tactic.
Thirty-six males and thirty-six females aged 21-94 were enrolled in the study, with each person suffering from either peptic ulcers, melena, hematemesis, or massive hematochezia with a positive nasogastric aspiate for blood. The patients were split into two groups, one that offered intensive resuscitation methods, and one that offered mere observation. Over the next 4 months they were monitored accordingly.

Sir Walter Winterbottom : The Father of Modern English Football Paperback
by Graham Morse
Sir Walter Winterbottom was arguably the most influential man in modern English football.
He is known as the first England team manager, but more than that he was an innovator of modern coaching, sports administrator and a man ahead of his time; a man who had a profound effect on English football and who laid the foundations for England's success in 1966.
Walter managed them all, from Lawton to Charlton, and inspired many to become coaches: Ron Greenwood, Bill Nicholson, Jimmy Hill and Bobby Robson were amongst his disciples and took his gospel to the clubs they managed.
Born in 1913, Winterbottom started out as a teacher and physical education instructor, playing amateur football in his spare time.
He was soon signed up by Manchester United, playing his first game 1936 and winning promotion to the First Division in 1938.
A spinal ailment curtailed his career, but during World War II he served as an officer in the Royal Air Force before the FA appointed him as national director of coaching and England team manager in 1946.He remains the ony manager to have taken the national side to more than two World Cup finals and was created an OBE in 1963 and a CBE in 1972 before being knighted in 1978. Walter died in 2002 but his legacy continues to inspire many in football today, especially with the opening of the new St George's Park football academy.
With interviews and insight from top football names, this book - written by Winterbottom's son-in-law - also draws on personal diaries, photographs and letters.
However, this is more than just a biography of one man - it's the story of how modern football came about.

Located one minute from the gates to Cornell in Collegetown, at the very top of East Buffalo and Eddy Street, is an 18 bedroom grand Victorian mansion. The building was completely renovated in 2005 to include all new kitchens, bathrooms and high quality fixtures and finishes.
As you enter the house there is a large front porch with comfortable outdoor furniture to enjoy the spring, summer and fall in Ithaca. The first floor of this enormous home includes two large living rooms, each with bay windows, furnished with comfortable, over-stuffed leather couches, coffee table, end tables, artwork, plants and lamps. To the right of the grand reception hall is a large kitchen/dining room which has new oak cabinets, plenty of countertops, a dishwasher, 3 refrigerators and a dining set. To the rear of this first floor are three bedrooms and a bathroom with shower.
Downstairs in the garden level there are two more bathrooms, a large laundry room with two washers and dryers, and five bedrooms, one of which has its own half bath. There is also a kitchen on this floor with oak cabinets, countertops and dishwasher. There is an exterior door leading to a rear lawn and garden.
The grand, open plan, 10 foot wide central staircase leads to the second and third floors. The walls are beautifully decorated with tasteful artwork. On the second floor there are five bedrooms, two of which have their own private bathrooms en suite. There are two additional bathrooms each with tub/showers.
Continuing up the grand staircase to the third, top floor, there are five more bedrooms and a bathroom with tub/shower. Large rooms, tall ceilings and lots of windows make every room bright and spacious. Almost all of the bedrooms are 200 sq. feet in size, i.e. 13'x16'. Each bedroom is furnished with a full sized bed, dresser, desk and leather office chair. There are carpets throughout with linoleum in the bathrooms and kitchens. A double garage is used for additional storage and the private driveway can accommodate four cars. Additonal Parking is available. This house is one of a kind.

Our Story
Back in 2013, Tim Koeth and Kevin Helm met while working together in downtown Boston. Three years later - having spent a good deal of time and money traveling to area craft breweries, cider houses, and distilleries - Tim and Kevin set out to build a convenient and inexpensive tour option for Boston's residents.
By working together with local vendors to build out plans that fit into their operating schedules, Tim and Kevin worked to find the perfect blend of convenience, variety, and affordability for a local area brewery experience.
During early morning meetings in coffee shops across town and afternoon discussions over a (few) pint(s), the two guys hatched their plans. As Hop-On/Hop-Off buses drove by the first floor of the Black Rose, the plan for Hops and Stops was laid out. If Boston's visiting tourists could whisk around the city to old landmarks like the Old North Church and Bunker Hill, Boston's residents should be able to visit the new landmarks - our breweries and cider houses - that Boston had to offer.
Within a few weeks of planning, Hops and Stops was born.

This Crock Pot Salsa Chicken is one of the most popular recipes on my blog – it's a good one!Crock Pot Salsa Chicken
***If you love EASY and DELICIOUS meals that you can make for your family in your slow cooker, please join me over on Instgram whereI share ALL slow cooker recipes! Hope to see you there! Find me on Instagram at @slowcookerrecipelove ***
Today I've got another Recipe Redo for you. A recipe that is buried deep in the archives of the blog. It is also one that had no pictures with it – just a recipe. It was actually the third recipe I ever shared on this blog!
Angara Vintage Style Tanzanite and Diamond Halo Pendant Armr3
Salsa Chicken is one of those easy, easy dinners. It is what I like to call a "dump" recipe. You just dump everything in the pan or in this case the crock pot and let it cook. Doesn't get much easier. I made it this week on a day I knew I wasn't going to have much time for dinner. Jim was having eye surgery (cataract removal and all went well) so I knew I would be gone with him and then I had class that evening so I needed something quick and easy! Salsa Chicken was the answer.
For this recipe I used a jar of salsa. I used what I had on my pantry shelf which was
Pace Picante
. The jar has gone out with the recyling but I believe it was the 15 ounce size jar, about 2 cups of salsa. I also added a can of corn and black beans along with a half cup of chopped cilantro and one teaspoon of

The MonetDB/SQL tutorial is based on the material published in the book J.R. Bruijn, F.S. Gaastra and I. Schaar, Dutch-Asiatic Shipping in the 17th and 18th Centuries , which gives an account of the trips made to the East and ships returned safely (or wrecked on the way). A total of 8000 records are provided. They include information about ship name and type, captain, the arrival/departure of harbors along the route, personnel accounts, and anecdotal information.
The command \q or end-of-file <Ctrl-d> signal terminates the connection with the server. Exploring the wealth of functionality offered by MonetDB/SQL is best started using a toy database. For this we use the VOC database which provides a peephole view into the administrative system of an early multi-national company, the Vereenigde geoctrooieerde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC for short - The (Dutch) East Indian Company) established on March 20, 1602. Download the VOC dataset voc_dump.zip (542K) gz (519K) bz2 (371K) which is a compressed file with SQL statements. After the file has been extracted, load its contents into MonetDB using mclient. Before you load the VOC data set, it is advised to introduce a user different from the omnipresent default monetdb. The new user is given his own schema for the MonetDB database. Assuming you have started MonetDB with SQL module, proceed as follows:
To illustrate the use of the newly created account and schema, the following example connects and creates a table, which is dropped afterwards by aborting the transaction.
Importing the voc_dump.sql file into the database can be done using the textual client interface. Some alternative ways are as follows:

Legislature Approves Public-Private Partnerships for Transportation Projects in Pennsylvania
On July 5 Governor Corbett signed legislation making Pennsylvania the 35th state to allow public-private partnerships (P3s) for transportation projects.
House Bill 3 permits public-private contracts for transportation projects that "transfer the rights for the use or control, whether in whole or in part, of transportation facilities by public entities to public-private development entities." P3s are entitled to all or a portion of revenue generated in exchange for providing services or facilities.
For example, the state would retain ownership of a road or bridge while a private firm in a P3 would receive a fixed return on its investment over time, such as through tolling. The state would use its share of proceeds to meet Commonwealth transportation needs. Under the legislation, a new and independent Public-Private Transportation Partnership Board, composed of seven members, would review and approve P3 projects.
Observers predict the legislation will take full effect in about two years.

Nonstick Cookware by Ecolution
Ecolution™, around since 2008, is an affordable, environmentally responsible line of nonstick cookware. The company uses Hydrolon, an ecologically advanced water based non-stick coating, made without PFOA, which is safer for humans and the planet. Their pledge to be a more ecologically responsible company goes beyond the avoidance of PFOA nonstick surface as the company philosophy considers every aspect of the manufacturing process.
This philosophy can be summed up in the phrase "Cook Well. Do Good." The details of which can be found on the company's Do Good section of the website.
ECO-Friendly Do Good Policy
Like many companies Ecolution follows the mantra Renew, Reuse, Recycle.
This manifests itself in several ways:
- Use of recycled steel racking in their distribution centers
- Use of biodegradable packaging to replace old "polybags"
- Printing packaging on 70% recycled materials
- Do Good page has suggestions for keeping old pans out of the trash/landfill:
1 – Consider turning your used cookware into a planter, animal bowl, or storage for your workshop
2 – If you can't think of any use for your old cookware around the house, then consider donating it to a charity.
3 – Find a recycling center that will allow you to drop off scrap metal in your community.
Ecolution NonStick Cookware
The nonstick pan collection is made from pure aluminum for even heat conductivity throughout the surface of the pan. Aluminum is the second most conductive metal, after copper, which means it responds quickly to heat adjustments.
The company information lists several benefits of their non-stick pans:
1 – Made with Hydrolon™ nonstick technology; A material free from PFOA.
2 – Pure aluminum insures a light weight, easy to handle pan with responsive, consistent heating.
3 – Soft Handles made of comfy, easy to grip, stay cool silicone
4 – Grooved rings on the bottom distributes even heat to the maximum surface area
5 – Unlike most nonstick cookware, Ecolutions pans can go directly in the dishwasher
What is PFOA-FREE Hydrolon NonStick?
Nonstick cookware by Ecolution employs Hydrolon a new WATER BASED application system, marketed exclusively by Ecolution. Hydrolon is a multi-layer nonstick, similar to traditional nonstick surfaces. All coats use water to apply the nonstick in place of PFOA (pertluorooctanoic acid), a solvent that was once required in order to manufacture heat and chemical resistant materials applied to cookware. The PFOA is burned off during the firing and finishing process; it takes a very long time to breakdown in the environment and is known to make workers sick.
Unlike PFOA based nonstick, Hydrolon uses a water based application system so it evaporates during the heating stage of adhesion of the nonstick. When the nonstick is applied to the metal, the application solvent that evaporates is simply water, greatly reducing emissions. According to the company, this non-toxic coating is a safer solution for healthy and eco-friendly cooking.
The coating has been thoroughly tested, and performs as well as old PFOA type formulations. The spray application is done by machine for proper application. Testing makes sure that the nonstick release and abrasion resistance meets a high standard and includes Abrasion Test, Contact Angle, Release, Value Boil Test, and Thickness Evaluation.
As part of a press offering, I received an 11″ skillet to use at home. I have to admit that my initial impression of the pan was that it would not work as well as other nonstick pans I own and use. I normally use cast and forged aluminum pans, love the way those work and find myself skeptical of more basic nonstick pans.
The pan came with a patterned, color coating on the aluminum exterior and bottom.
The aluminum pan feels light and based on the cast aluminum nonstick pans I use, felt wimpy. But as I would learn, weight isn't an indicator of performance ability. I weighed the Ecolution 11″ nonstick pan at 2.2 lbs. Two other cast aluminum nonstick pans I own weigh over 3 lbs. Numerically that doesn't seem much, but it felt like a big difference in the hand. The light weight of pure aluminum, what is known as spun aluminum, so named because of the motion used to shaped the aluminum disk into the pan shape. I have for so long associated spun aluminum pans with cheap, lower performing pans, but the simple aluminum construction does allow the manufacturer to sell a more affordable product.
The handle is attached to the exterior with screws which allows the handle to be tightened should it become loose.
Being pure aluminum, with no special bottom disk, it can NOT be used on an induction cooktop. Aluminum is not magnetic and will not work on induction cooktops.
I used this the Ecolution nonstick skillet to cook eggs all ways (fried, over easy, scrambled and omelet), sausages, sauces, chicken breasts, and fish – quite literally anything that would fit inside the 11″ space.
I never had any problem with food sticking. The Ecolution nonstick cookware, like any nonstick pan, needs to be heated to a proper temperature before putting food inside it. Placing food in a cold pan can result in it sticking to the bottom or side. Typically to help with release in nonstick pans, I tend to put oil or fat on a paper towel and rub it into the pan surface, but with the Ecolution pans I found this to be completely unnecessary.
Managing temperatures is the key to effectively cooking with any nonstick surface. The Ecolution pan responded to the most subtle changes in heat so that I could control browning and cooking. Like most nonstick pans, you will want to keep the surface temperature under 450° F. Food cooked at this high temperature will tend to over cook on the outside before the inside reaches the proper safe temperature and the high temperature can shorten the life of the pan. If you are not comfortable knowing when a pan is at temperature, this can be easily done with an infrared probe.
The Ecolution line I used is called Artistry, but I think at one time it was the only line. The Artistry line has the most robust selection of pans Ecolution sells. The pans are sold individually and as sets, like the one below.
Each line will contain different component pieces, but Artistry is the line I see most often in shops and retail outlets.
It took me a while to warm up to the Ecolution nonstick pan, but over time I found myself reaching for it more and more. I like the way this pan comes to temperature quickly, responds to even subtle heat adjustments, steadily holds heat, cooks evenly and with great consistency and ultimately how the nonstick surface was perfectly…nonstick. The only problem, if you can call it that, is if you have a range or cooktop with cast metal cooking grates and you shake the pan back and forth, as I am wont to do, some of the bottom coating may scratch off. This doesn't mean the pan will perform badly, it just means that aluminum will be exposed on the bottom and may discolor in its "raw" state.
I can't speak for the other Ecolution cookware lines, but I can say that I do like the Artistry line very much. It is available at Bed, Bath and Beyond, online and in a variety of retail locations, such as houseware specific stores and Ace Hardware shops.

I am looking for an 8" ecolution fry pan in the color teal. Can anyone tell me where I can buy this exact fry pan?

Can Artistry line of pans be used on ceramic cook top?
Paul Douglas
Just bought an Artistry Ecolution set. Never tried cooking with it: two of the glass lids don't fit their appropriate pans. What cheap junk.
Ben Coonen
We have been using an ecolution pan but I see it has some nicks in the coating and I am wondering if it is still safe to cook with?
A little concerned.
Deloris Skelton
I am Deloris Skelton whose email appeared on May 9, 2015.
After contacting Ecolution, I received a new frying pan only this time
in their "symphony" line of cookware.
This new frying pan is very satisfactory,
so I would recommend buying the Symphony line of their products.
Not the line with the green bottom.
I have a white lined ecolution pan. It's great for all frying except eggs. Scrambled omelets are fine, but straight fried eggs are near impossible.
The problem is the albumin sticks to the surface. Even with oil in the pan. The oil beads and leaves most of the surface uncovered, which means the albumin sticks to the surface. Don't even try over easy.
Utterly disappointing.
The same thing happened to my pan, with the bubbling and flaking. I am also concerned. I tried to call the company, but they don't have a phone number listed. So I went to their website and emailed them, they haven't responded and it's been a month. Not sure if I should continue cooking with it.
Deloris Skelton
I have the same 11-inch skillet pan with the green pattern on the bottom pictured in this article which I purchased at Macy's. I became aware that the non-stick coating had many small bubbles instead of being smooth like my other non-stick pans.
The bubble break and the coating comes off!!
I am concerned that we have consumed this "hydrolon" nonstick coating in our food.
Please reply.

KAITIAKITANGA: Protecting our Oceans, Islands and Skies by Inspiring a Climate Change of Consciousness
The authors decided to create an integrated indigenous programme of sustainability in all areas of life, one that drew on ancestral knowledge and could also embrace new ideas. They wanted to tune this into a certified teaching programme so that each participant would emerge qualified to take these ideas and practices out to their tribes. The idea was to teach the programme for free so that it was attainable for all people and for each participant to teach another ten people, thus rapidly increasing the knowledge base. So, they designed an innovative Pacific permaculture course, free of the colonial mindset, by and for indigenous people to apply to their own communities: Kaitiakitanga Island Permaculture Design Courses.

Wait Entertainment: No real entertainment but a restaurant has set up out front with food and warm drinks. Some actors coming through from break played along to the ones waiting in line. A tour guide with his camera added some laughs while we were waiting.
Length of Event: about 15 minutes, depends on how long you get stuck in the maze.
Actor Performance: Many younger kids that did a great job staying in character. Adult actors really fit the parts too. Creepy, gory, disturbing, they had it all covered.
Patron Flow Inside Attraction: Did not run into any other groups. They made sure to clear other groups before starting another.
Appropriate Ages: Probably about ages 12+. Depends on the child. There is a special attraction in a separate building for kids 8 and under that is open the same hours as the main house.
Props / Special FX: LOTS of fog, but it worked. Good usage of the building and what it already had in creep value. Lots of blood and guts that was very realistic.
Costumes / Make-up: excellent makeup jobs! the red demon in the fog room was very disturbing. Lots of masks but they worked well with the room, especially the clowns.
Summary: Fright High is a great haunt. Definitely a great addition to the Knox County haunted house scene. Everyone was very helpful and while there wasn't much wait entertainment there were a few scares and lots of laughs while waiting to go through. The haunt itself is well put together with a variety of scares from the creepy to the gory to the completely confusing and disturbing. The tour guides story really helped to sell some of the scares and the actors did a great job with the rest. LOTS OF FOG everywhere and it really set the mood. The maze was great and had us lost for quite a while. Wouldn't recommend this for kids under the age of 12 but it really depends on your kid.

Wearable gadgets du jour – how do we secure them?
Posted: Friday,September 19,2014
When Nike launched its Nike+ FuelBand in 2012 there were few, if any, other wearable fitness wristbands available, and at the time appeared to be just another nifty tool to track the progress of our exercise regimens. Not so anymore with mobile device giant Apple jumping into the wearable technology arena this week with its Watch. Apple joins a rapidly growing market that includes Fitbit, Jawbone, Misfit Wearables and even Ralph Lauren who just debuted its new Polo Tech shirt on opening day of the US Open that merges biometrics into active lifestyle apparel. Many of these start-ups are beginning to receive some serious funding from the VC community.

Voice ID Proven Effective in Proof of Life Deployment
Posted: Monday,September 01,2014
Quickly and accurately confirming the identity of millions of residents is critical to managing costs, preventing fraud and streamlining operations for government agencies.
In the latest AGNITIO Case Study, we take a close look at the successful deployment of a secure biometrics-based Proof of Life authentication system by AGNITIO partner Net1 to South African citizens receiving social security benefits and services.
"South African citizens now have access their grants quicker, easier and more securely by simply making a phone call," said Philippe Vinci, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Sales for AGNITIO.
The integrated Net1 UEPS system with AGNITIO Voice ID has been rolled out to 10 million people, one of the world's largest voice biometrics deployments; and is saving SASSA millions of dollars per year, one of the most successful Proof of Life implementations ever.

Many lessons to learn from Holocaust horrors
Condemning the general concept of teaching the young about the Holocaust inadvertently exemplifies the need for it.
A June 26 letter questions why we devote so much attention to the Holocaust when "it is of no practical value."
Having a better grasp of the events that led to the Holocaust can help us understand the human behavior underpinning other examples of mass injustice and thereby give us insight into how to keep the baser elements of human history from repeating themselves.
As the most meticulously documented genocide in world history, the Holocaust is a case study of the moral consequences of pushing our fellow human beings outside the universe of obligation.
Among many other lessons, the extreme example of the Holocaust allows us to see how we create "the other," why we cede responsibility in groups, and what compels us to act on our conscience.
And it is the unique nature of the Holocaust that makes it an especially legitimate starting point. Consider:
The Holocaust began in a democracy.
The murder of 6 million Jews could not have happened on such a scale without the participation of masses of ordinary citizens.
It occurred in a highly industrialized society, expedited by the most advanced science and technology then known to man.
One of the principal lessons of the Holocaust is to stand up to injustice wherever we find it, since great atrocities usually begin with much smaller ones. And that is exactly the sentiment that prompts this response to the letter.
Rachel Belin
Repeating the past
I'm always suspect of letters that quote Biblical passages as evidence, but the recent writer ("Put past in the past," June 26) who used the tale of Lot's wife as an exhortation to forget the past verged on lunacy.
Only by remembering, studying and understanding the past can we navigate our present and our future. By forgetting the past and, sadly, rather quickly (2010, anyone?) we keep repeating the mistakes of the past.
If the forgetful, impatient, easily distracted and attention-deficient dismiss the past this November, we may be voting for the exact GOP policies that gutted the middle class and got us into our current economic morass.
Charles Edward Pogue
Never forget
Is it history that he objects to, or just the tragic treatment of the Jews under the Nazi atrocities?
Should Germany forget Hitler, Russia forget Stalin, Italy forget Mussolini, the United States forget slavery? Or, to put it in a simple way: Should we take down the eight NCAA championship banners in Rupp Arena?
It seems that 67 years ago is ancient history to a recent letter writer. But I was alive and remember many members of my family who were gassed by the Nazis. I and my family will never forget; but if the general public forgets, it will be doomed to repeat a dark time in human history.
Steve Caller
Melungeon DNA history
Contrary to information in a recent article about a DNA study, Melungeons had a legitimate reason to claim Portuguese ancestry.
The Portuguese were in Africa more than a hundred years before blacks arrived in America.
The mixture of Portuguese and Africans produced people now identified by historians as Atlantic Creoles. Many Atlantic Creoles adopted the Christian faith and had Spanish names; they were among the first slaves in Virginia.
There is an early record of Atlantic Creoles claiming Portuguese, rather than African. ancestry. English explorer Richard Jobson documented his travels to Africa in The Golden Trade in 1620 and 1621. He described the Creoles, who controlled most of the coastal trade, as Portuguese speaking Christians who identified with Portuguese rather than African ancestry.

Not another Williams
Surely, you jest. A recent article reported that Senate President David Williams' wife, Robyn, is considering a run for attorney general.
Please, the last thing Kentucky needs is another Williams in Frankfort. A concentrated effort should be made to send the one we have there presently home. Perhaps then Kentucky could begin to move forward.

The CIArb's North American branch in Houston, a city recognized worldwide for its energy industry, hosted a conference on the topic of resolving energy disputes in time of crisis. President Professor Dr Nayla Comair-Obeid was invited to deliver the keynote speech.
Professor Dr Nayla Comair-Obeid's speech focused on first the CIArb and its leading role in the improvement of dispute resolution, and the way in which the multinational aspect of transactions and the heterogeneity of actors in the energy industry reflect the diversity of the CIArb.
The oil and gas sector is inherently risky and vulnerable to crises, and the disputes and global crises are intrinsically intertwined. The most common disputes which arise from oil and gas crises (or) external crises impacting oil and gas businesses include those resulting from the invocation of exemptions for non-performance. Additionally disputes can come in the form of commercial disputes under price adjustment clauses, as well as investor-state disputes typical of the MENA region.
In these disputes, the role of the dispute resolvers should go beyond solely resolution. Based on previous case studies, dispute resolvers should be sensitive to the potential repercussions the resolution of a particular dispute may have on a larger crisis. Dispute resolvers, settlers and preventers should at all times encourage peaceful negotiations and amicable settlements, especially in times of crises.
It falls upon dispute resolvers to ensure their continuous training and education, so that they can undertake highly demanding tasks. It is by going beyond our private interests, keeping in mind the interest of the profession, by nurturing a vision of fairness and justice and by acting as architects of peace through appropriate use of all ADR methods, that we will ensure the prosperous future of arbitration as an efficient alternative to court litigation.

I made a BIG parenting mistake this year….
Like so many other parents, when my son turned one, we turned him around into a forward-facing car seat. It was what we did for our daughter back in 2010, and as far as I knew, it was still safe – and legal – to have your child forward-facing as long as he was 12 months or 20 pounds.
I was wrong.
Back in 2011, the American Academy of Pediatrics put out new recommendations for infants and car seats. They recommend that children remain rear-facing in the car until 2.
Two years old.
The problem was that our son was HUGE! He was almost 30 pounds, and he was so long his legs were scrunched up in the back of the car.
We turned him around.
Graco SnugRide Click Connect 40 To the Rescue
The Graco SnugRide Click Connect 40 is the ONLY infant car seat that provides rear-facing protection for babies from birth to 2 years old.
It has a 4 to 40 pound weight limit – a full two years! And its base adjusts with eight recline positions for most leg room in any rear-facing car seat.
And, my favorite feature, it has the Simply Safe Adjust harness system, which allows parents to adjust the harness and headrest with just one hand to fit the baby's height as he grows. No more re-threading the harness every time you need to adjust the setting!
Actually, now that I think about it, that is probably my husband's favorite feature – he usually gets the car-seat adjustment job!
Graco SnugRide Click Connect 40 Demo and Review
I'll be reviewing the Graco SnugRide Click Connect 40 right here in the next few days. Be sure to check back, or subscribe to my YouTube channel to learn more.
I received a Graco SnugRide Click Connect 40 as part of this party promotion.

IT Strategy: 5 Things Top CIOs Have in Common
The Chief Information Officer has the privilege of aligning the company's IT infrastructure with the company's business priorities. They say that information is power but it's actually the lifeblood of any business, and for the CIO to take information in all its forms under his/her wing, is no picnic. Still, this special breed of manager seems to thrive on the pressure of building an IT strategy that keeps data safe while maximising the company's bottom line.
To have what it takes
In an article published in 2013, Rich Hein, Senior Managing Editor and writer for CIO.com, eloquently described important traits that a CIO should have, or strive for, to be successful. Five of these are summarised as follows:
- A desire for learning
By being in one of most volatile and rapidly developing industries in the world i.e. Information and Communications Technology, it's easy to get left behind. Learning to identify trends and being able to identify your own shortcomings in relation to them gives a CIO the edge to always stay knowledgeable. This also facilitates an IT strategy that is crisp and effective and relevant to the business it serves.
- Master networking and relationship building
Stakeholders of different kinds abound under the umbrella of the CIO. Gordon Whishon, CIO of Arizona University, says, "The CIO, among his many responsibilities, works with internal groups – including developers, support techs, senior management, database administrator, project managers and every department head – and external vendors. Being able to communicate, articulate and influence people is a necessary skill."
Unfortunately this often results in the CIO being the target of criticism and reprimand when things go wrong and it's crucial that they can handle this with grace in order to maintain relationships and solve problems collaboratively.
- Understand your industry and know your business
The two go hand-in-hand: industry and business knowledge. This enables the CIO to identify the best technology suited to the business case and to develop solutions that stand the test of time – as much as can be expected amidst technological developments.
- Market ideas and inspire people
With solid networks and good working relationships, he/she needs to be able to inspire people to follow the vision. As IT strategies go, it takes all parts of the machine working efficiently to make a success of it and it's up to the CIO to transfer ideas that result in voluntary participation.
- Growing people
Implementing the IT strategy will require the best of everyone involved. By recognising talent, the CIO will be able to bring the right people into the business and also develop and grow employees that are already invested in the business. In addition, with the right people in his/her team, the CIO eliminates their own blind spots and is able to leverage skills collectively.
To have what it takes
The IT strategy is essentially the seed from which a thriving IT environment will develop. It includes facets of technology management (including hardware and software), cost management, personnel management, vendor management, and of course risk management – a respected role that can be immensely rewarding for a person suited it. TechTarget emphasises the skills required when executing an IT strategy: "... [it] requires strong IT leadership; the chief information officer (CIO) ... [needs] to work closely with business, budget and legal departments as well as with other user groups within the organization[sic]."
"The plan and its documentation should be flexible enough to change in response to new organizational[sic] circumstances and business priorities, budgetary constraints, available skill sets and core competencies, new technologies and a growing understanding of user needs and business objectives."
