Stratigraphy of Lake Vida, Antarctica: hydrologic implications of 27 m of ice
H. A. Dugan, P. T. Doran, B. Wagner, F. Kenig, C. H. Fritsen, S. A. Arcone, E. Kuhn, N. E. Ostrom, J. P. Warnock, and A. E. Murray
The Cryosphere, 9, 439-450,
Short summary
Lake Vida is one of the largest lakes in the McMurdo dry valleys, Antarctica, and has the thickest known ice cover of any lake on Earth. For the first time, Lake Vida was drilled to a depth of 27m. With depth the ice cover changes from freshwater ice to salty ice interspersed with thick sediment layers. It is hypothesized that the repetition of sediment layers in the ice will reveal climatic and hydrologic variability in the region over the last 1000--3000 years.

Snow-cover reconstruction methodology for mountainous regions based on historic in situ observations and recent remote sensing data
A. Gafurov, S. Vorogushyn, D. Farinotti, D. Duethmann, A. Merkushkin, and B. Merz
The Cryosphere, 9, 451-463,
Short summary
Spatially distributed snow-cover data are available only for the recent past from remote sensing. Sometimes we need snow-cover data over a longer period for climate impact analysis for the calibration/validation of hydrological models. In this study we present a methodology to reconstruct snow cover in the past using available long-term in situ data and recently available remote sensing snow-cover data. The results show about 85% accuracy although only a limited number of stations (7) were used.

Geophysical mapping of palsa peatland permafrost
Y. Sjöberg, P. Marklund, R. Pettersson, and S. W. Lyon
The Cryosphere, 9, 465-478,
Short summary
Permafrost peatlands are hydrological and biogeochemical hotspots in discontinuous permafrost areas. We estimate the depths to the permafrost table surface and base across a peatland in northern Sweden using ground penetrating radar and electrical resistivity tomography. Seasonal frost tables, taliks, and the permafrost base could be detected. The results highlight the added value of combining techniques for assessing distributions of permafrost in the rapidly changing sporadic permafrost zone.

Seasonal changes of ice surface characteristics and productivity in the ablation zone of the Greenland Ice Sheet
D. M. Chandler, J. D. Alcock, J. L. Wadham, S. L. Mackie, and J. Telling
The Cryosphere, 9, 487-504,
Short summary
The Greenland Ice Sheet surface shows a diverse range of characteristics, and hosts active microbial communities in debris-rich ''cryoconite holes'' (CHs). Field and satellite data for a complete melt season revealed significant links between surface albedo, CH coverage and biological activity. This suggests satellites may be able to monitor CH biological processes. Nevertheless, caution is needed when extrapolating point measurements of biological processes to larger space and time scales.

Spatial patterns in glacier characteristics and area changes from 1962 to 2006 in the Kanchenjunga–Sikkim area, eastern Himalaya
A. E. Racoviteanu, Y. Arnaud, M. W. Williams, and W. F. Manley
The Cryosphere, 9, 505-523,
Short summary
An overall negative glacier surface area change of 0.5±0.2% yr-1 was observed for the eastern Himalaya since 1962 based on remote sensing data. There were higher rates of area loss for clean glaciers (-34%, or -0.7% yr-1) compared to debris-covered glaciers (-14.3% or -0.3 yr-1) on a glacier-by-glacier basis. Patterns of area change are heterogenous and depend on topographic and climatic factors, glacier altitude (maximum, median, altitudinal range), glacier size, slope and aspect.

Brief Communication: Contending estimates of 2003–2008 glacier mass balance over the Pamir–Karakoram–Himalaya
A. Kääb, D. Treichler, C. Nuth, and E. Berthier
The Cryosphere, 9, 557-564,
Short summary
Based on satellite laser altimetry over the Pamir--Karakoram Himalaya we detect strongest elevation losses over east Nyainqentanglha Shan and Spiti--Lahaul but slight elevation gains over west Kunlun Shan rather than over Karakoram. The current sea-level contribution of Pamir--Karakoram Himalaya glaciers is about 10% of the total global contribution of glaciers outside the ice sheets. We also improve estimates of glacier imbalance contribution to river discharge in the Himalayas.

Verification of analysed and forecasted winter precipitation in complex terrain
M. Schirmer and B. Jamieson
The Cryosphere, 9, 587-601,
Short summary
Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models are rarely verified for mountainous regions during the winter season, although avalanche forecasters and other decision makers frequently rely on NWP models. We verified two NWP models (GEM-LAM and GEM15) and a precipitation analysis system (CaPA) at approximately 100 stations in the mountains of western Canada and northwestern USA. Ultrasonic snow depth sensors and snow pillows were used to observe daily precipitation amounts.

Self-regulation of ice flow varies across the ablation area in south-west Greenland
R. S. W. van de Wal, C. J. P. P. Smeets, W. Boot, M. Stoffelen, R. van Kampen, S. H. Doyle, F. Wilhelms, M. R. van den Broeke, C. H. Reijmer, J. Oerlemans, and A. Hubbard
The Cryosphere, 9, 603-611,
Short summary
This paper addresses the feedback between ice flow and melt rates. Using 20 years of data covering the whole ablation area, we show that there is not a strong positive correlation between annual ice velocities and melt rates. Rapid variations around the equilibrium line indicate the possibility of rapid variations high on the ice sheet.

Warming permafrost and active layer variability at Cime Bianche, Western European Alps
P. Pogliotti, M. Guglielmin, E. Cremonese, U. Morra di Cella, G. Filippa, C. Pellet, and C. Hauck
The Cryosphere, 9, 647-661,
Short summary
This study presents the thermal state and recent evolution of permafrost at Cime Bianche. The analysis reveals that (i) spatial variability of MAGST is greater than its interannual variability and is controlled by snow duration and air temperature during the snow-free period, (ii) the ALT has a pronounced spatial variability caused by a different subsurface ice and water content, and (iii) permafrost is warming at significant rates below 8m of depth.

On producing sea ice deformation data sets from SAR-derived sea ice motion
S. Bouillon and P. Rampal
The Cryosphere, 9, 663-673,
Short summary
We present a new method to compute sea ice deformation fields from satellite-derived motion. The method particularly reduces the artificial noise that arises along discontinuities in the sea ice motion field. We estimate that this artificial noise may cause an overestimation of about 60% of sea ice opening and closing. The constant overestimation of the opening and closing could have led in previous studies to a large overestimation of freezing in leads, salt rejection and sea ice ridging.

Quantifying meltwater refreezing along a transect of sites on the Greenland ice sheet
C. Cox, N. Humphrey, and J. Harper
The Cryosphere, 9, 691-701,
Short summary
On the Greenland Ice Sheet, a significant quantity of surface melt water refreezes after infiltrating into the cold underlying firn. This paper presents a new method for estimating the amount of water refreezing using temperature measurements. The method is applied to temperature data from a transect of 11 sites and the results provide some of the first measurement-based estimates of refreezing quantities which can be used to improve modeling and better understand the refreezing process.

Mass changes of Southern and Northern Inylchek Glacier, Central Tian Shan, Kyrgyzstan, during ∼1975 and 2007 derived from remote sensing data
D. H. Shangguan, T. Bolch, Y. J. Ding, M. Kröhnert, T. Pieczonka, H. U. Wetzel, and S. Y. Liu
The Cryosphere, 9, 703-717,
Short summary
Glacier velocity, glacier area, surface elevation and mass changes of the Southern and Northern Inylchek Glacier were investigated by using multi-temporal space-borne data sets. The mass balance of both SIG and NIG was negative(-0.43 ± 0.10 m w.e. a-1 and -0.25 ± 0.10 m w.e. a-1) from ~1975 to 2007. The thinning at the lake dam was higher, likely caused by calving into Lake Merzbacher. Thus, glacier thinning and glacier flow are significantly influenced by the lake.

Future permafrost conditions along environmental gradients in Zackenberg, Greenland
S. Westermann, B. Elberling, S. Højlund Pedersen, M. Stendel, B. U. Hansen, and G. E. Liston
The Cryosphere, 9, 719-735,
Short summary
The development of ground temperatures in permafrost areas is influenced by many factors varying on different spatial and temporal scales. We present numerical simulations of ground temperatures for the Zackenberg valley in NE Greenland, which take into account the spatial variability of snow depths, surface and ground properties at a scale of 10m. The ensemble of the model grid cells suggests a spatial variability of annual average ground temperatures of up to 5°C.

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in Arctic ground ice
M. Fritz, T. Opel, G. Tanski, U. Herzschuh, H. Meyer, A. Eulenburg, and H. Lantuit
The Cryosphere, 9, 737-752,
Short summary
Ground ice in permafrost has not, until now, been considered to be a source of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and other elements that are important for ecosystems and carbon cycling. Ice wedges in the Arctic Yedoma region hold 45.2 Tg DOC (Tg = 10^12g), 33.6 Tg DIC and a freshwater reservoir of 4200 km³. Leaching of terrestrial organic matter is the most relevant process of DOC sequestration into ground ice.

Tracing glacier changes in Austria from the Little Ice Age to the present using a lidar-based high-resolution glacier inventory in Austria
A. Fischer, B. Seiser, M. Stocker Waldhuber, C. Mitterer, and J. Abermann
The Cryosphere, 9, 753-766,
Short summary
A time series of four Austrian glacier inventories (GIs) from the LIA maximum state up to the year 2006 show a decrease of glacier area to 44% of the LIA area. The annual relative area losses are 0.3%/year for the period GI LIA to GI 1 (1969), with one period with major glacier advances in the 1920s. From GI 1 to GI 2 (1969-1998, one advance period of variable length in the 1980s) glacier area decreased by 0.6%/year, and from GI 2 to GI 3 (10 years, no advance period) by 1.2%/year.

A model study of Abrahamsenbreen, a surging glacier in northern Spitsbergen
J. Oerlemans and W. J. J. van Pelt
The Cryosphere, 9, 767-779,
Short summary
Many glaciers on Svalbard are surging glaciers. A surge is a rapid advance of the glacier snout during a few years, followed by a long period of quiescence. During the surge ice flows to lower terrain and experiences higher melt rates in summer. Here we investigate the impact of surging on the long-term effects of climate warming. We have modelled Abrahamsenbreen in northern Spitsbergen as a typical case. We show that surges tend to accelerate glacier retreat when temperature increases.

Influence of weak layer heterogeneity and slab properties on slab tensile failure propensity and avalanche release area
J. Gaume, G. Chambon, N. Eckert, M. Naaim, and J. Schweizer
The Cryosphere, 9, 795-804,
Short summary
Slab tensile failure propensity is examined using a mechanical--statistical model of the slab–-weak layer (WL) system based on the finite element method. This model accounts for WL heterogeneity, stress redistribution by elasticity of the slab and the slab possible tensile failure. For realistic values of the parameters, the tensile failure propensity is mainly driven by slab properties. Hard and thick snow slabs are more prone to wide–scale crack propagation and thus lead to larger avalanches.

Simultaneous solution for mass trends on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet
N. Schoen, A. Zammit-Mangion, J. C. Rougier, T. Flament, F. Rémy, S. Luthcke, and J. L. Bamber
The Cryosphere, 9, 805-819,
Short summary
This paper provides a proof of concept approach for combining multiple observations and inferences to provide rigorous, error-bounded estimates of mass trends and surface processes for the Antarctic ice sheet. Here we apply the method to West Antarctica, using a time-invariant solution by way of proof of concept. Subsequent work will utilise a time evolving approach to the whole ice sheet.

30 Aug Don't Miss this Enchanting Evening
Register now for "Enchanted Garden," the annual Bellevue Botanical Garden Society's dinner and auction, to be held on Friday, September 24 at 5:30 pm. Popular auctioneer John Curley will be tempting you to raise your paddle again and again for the fabulous gardening art, accessories, plants and getaways. He'll have his trusted sidekick, Evening Magazine's Jim Dever, assisting him.
This year the auction moves to the Harbor Club Bellevue, which offers an elegant, relaxing atmosphere. The dinner menu has been designed by famed chef David Thierry, and includes a sumptuous four-course harvest menu designed specifically with the garden-loving guests in mind. You will be greeted with a glass of champagne from Barefoot Wine & Bubbly, and during the meal, the wine pairings for each course have been chosen by Bareoot's Zach Hilfman.
Last year the "Harvest Hoedown" theme encouraged guests to get into the spirit wearing their best country duds. This year's "Enchanted Garden" theme will mean bringing out your flowery summer dresses, or maybe adding a few butterflies to a garden hat.
This is a garden lover's auction and you won't find these events and experiences in any store. There will be one-of-a-kind garden sculptures; vacation stays in Orcas Island, Sun Valley, Maui; wine tastings; garden tours, theme gourmet dinners; many art pieces, birdhouses and planted containers, and, of course, a great selection of unusual plants donated from nurseries and specialty growers. Start planning your auction strategy in advance by checking out their catalog, which you can find online at http://www.bellevuebotanical.org/ after September 15.
The tickets are $110 per person and Patrons are $150 per person. Or organize a table with a group of friends and the evening is even more festive – a table for 8 is $880, a table for 10 is $1,100 and a Patron table for 8 is $1,200. (Contributions are tax deductible.) The event is usually a sellout, so don't wait to buy your tickets.
The annual September fete is a fun way to support the Bellevue Botanical Garden, an important botanical collection that includes the Yao Japanese garden, a rhododendron glen, a rock garden, a waterwise garden, fuchsia and dahlia gardens and the NPA perennial border. It is the only fundraising event to support all the Society's programs for the public, including the Mothers Day celebration, Music in the Garden, and the invaluable 'Living Lab' program for children.
Living Lab provides quality science and botany-related educational opportunities for youth. It includes different modules for different elementary school age children that satisfy school district science requirements. The aim is to teach children about the environment, soils, and historical use of plants by Native Americans. Accredited teachers are hired and each year about 1000 eager children go through the program in spring and fall. These might be the future horticulturists and nursery owners of tomorrow so it's vital to get them away from their electronic devices and expose them to plants and nature!
The money raised at the annual auction also goes to printed educational materials, purchasing plants, supporting garden renovations, the popular docent program and helping to fund Garden d'Lights, which is more fanciful every year and has become a must-see regional attraction for the holidays.
The Bellevue Botanical Garden has a lot in store in the coming future. They are raising funds for a new educational center, and are developing the new Ravine Garden, which will feature a 150-ft. suspension bridge and a Sun Terrace/Wetland Garden. Currently Jim Olson of Olson Kundig Architects is designing the structures and entry sequence, and the renowned Dan Hinkley is consulting on appropriate plants. The BBG hopes to break ground in early 2011 for this new feature. – Janet

LSU's Les Miles shares throwback photo with former Tigers coach Gerry DiNardo
In celebration of #TBT (Throwback Thursday), LSU coach Les Miles dug in the archives and found an old photo of himself with former Tigers coach Gerry DiNardo when the pair ran in a marathon together.
Found old pic for #TBT..current and former LSU coaches running a marathon Don't know if I can run that fast now !!LM pic.twitter.com/gF3LSI0Lkc
— Les Miles (@LSUCoachMiles) April 28, 2016
When exactly the photo is from is unknown, but DiNardo and Miles were both on the Colorado coaching staff from 1982-1986.
DiNardo served as the LSU coach from 1995-1999, racking up a 26-9-1 record in his first three seasons with the Tigers before a 4-7 record in 1998 and 2-8 start to the 1999 season resulted in his firing.
The 1999 season was the last that didn't feature LSU in a bowl game, and Miles has a 112-32 record in 11 seasons at the helm.

Kids Section
Most People with curly hair have awful memories of when they were younger and no one knew how to manage curly hair. Kids with curly hair are always being chased by their parents wanting to get the tangles out. Since then we have learned so much about curly hair. This allows much easier maintenance for childnren's curly hair. The high quality ingredients available today have increased the effectiveness of detanglers and conditioners with the proper PH level that will close down the hair cuticle without using silicones and other oils. Tangles are a huge issue with children's curly hair. All loose tangles and hair must be removed before you can begin to style the hair. All Curly Hair Solutions® & Curl Keeper® are children friendly.

Slightly Stoopid will play Riverfront Park June 23 with Iration, J Boog, and The Movement for their Sounds of Summer 2017 Tour.
As summertime encroaches upon us, so does rock-reggae virtuoso Slightly Stoopid's annual summer tour! The Ocean Beach, California-based perennial summer amphitheater act, will be bringing their Sounds Of Summer tour to 40 cities and 4 countries this summer including a stop in North Charleston, SC at Riverfront Park on Friday, June 23rd with support from Iration, J Boog, and The Movement.
For those that have not seen Riverfront Park, it sits on the western bank of the Cooper River in at 1001 Everglades Ave. Last summer, Riverfront Park hosted Slightly Stoopid's Return of the Red Eye tour, along with a stop from Rebelution. It is also home to the Greater Charleston Naval Base Memorial and hosts the FREE North Charleston 4th of July Festival.
Check out this drone video of Riverfront Park from Scoot Kings on YouTube:
After releasing twelve studio albums, including four live albums and their eighth and most recent album: Meanwhile... Back at the Lab (lauded for their multi-instrumental cross-genre blend of rock, reggae, folk and blues with hip-hop, punk, and funk elements) the band is still going strong. Performing alongside the multi-instrumentalists and founding members Kyle McDonald and Miles Doughty are drummer Ryan "Rymo" Moran, saxophonist Daniel "Dela" Delacruz, keyboardist Paul Wolstencroft, and trumpet and trombone player Andy Geib, plus special guest and "unofficial eighth member" Karl Denson on saxophone.

JERUSALEM – Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders said this week he would urge the Israeli government to pull out of West Bank settlement and accused the Israel Defense Forces of using "disproportionate" force in its war against Hamas in Gaza in 2014.
The far-left contender, speaking to the New York Daily News ahead of the New York primaries scheduled for April 19, also vastly inflated the number of Palestinians killed by Israel in the operation, but conceded that he "did not remember the figures."
"I don't remember the figures, but my recollection is over 10,000 innocent people were killed in Gaza," Sanders told the paper's editorial board.
"My understanding is that a whole lot of apartment houses were leveled. Hospitals, I think, were bombed. So yeah, I do believe and I don't think I'm alone in believing that Israel's force was more indiscriminate than it should have been," he said.
Israel and the Palestinians published different figures for the death toll of Operation Protective Edge, as Israel dubbed it, but both put the number of dead well below 2,500, including both civilians and militants. Israel says 1,408 of 2,203 Palestinians killed in the war were militants. Hamas claimed more than half were civilians.
Sanders referenced Israel's bombing of a hospital but he left out that the IDF bombed an Gaza's empty Al-Wafa Hospital, saying it was being used as a Hamas terrorist command center. No casualties were reported in the bombing, and Israel first fired numerous warning shots and ensured that the building was evacuated.
Speaking of the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians, Sanders said that from an American point of view, "I think, long-term, we cannot ignore the reality that you have large numbers of Palestinians who are suffering now, poverty rate off the charts, unemployment off the charts, Gaza remaining a destroyed area. And I think that for long-term peace in that region, and God knows nobody has been successful in that for 60 years, but there are good people on both sides, and Israel is not, cannot, just simply expand when it wants to expand with new settlements."
Asked by the paper whether Israeli pullouts from West Bank settlements (Israel pulled out all its Gaza settlements in the 2005 disengagement) would be a "baseline" for future negotiations with the Palestinians, Sanders said it was a "fair question," but added that he thought that "if the expansion was illegal, moving into territory that was not their territory, I think withdrawal from those territories is appropriate."
Asked "who makes the call" on the legal status of Jewish settlements in the West Bank (Israel conquered the West Bank from Jordan, not the Palestinians), the Vermont senator said "Well, I think that's based on previous treaties and ideas. I happen to think that those expansions were illegal."
The position of the Obama administration, as stated by the president and his staff, is that Jewish settlements in the area the Palestinians claim for a future state are illegal.
Sanders, the only Jewish candidate in the race and the only one who would not reschedule campaign plans to appear before AIPAC, the largest pro-Israel group in US politics, insisted he believed "100% not only in Israel's right to exist, [but] a right to exist in peace and security without having to face terrorist attacks."
The candidate also stressed the fact that he has family in Israel.

About 370 blacks and women who were turned down for jobs by Honda of America Manufacturing Inc. will receive a total of $6 million from the automobile maker in a settlement of a Federal discrimination case, the Government and Honda announced today.
''It's a significant, large sum that fits into what we considered a just settlement,'' said Jay Friedman, director of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's systemic investigations division, which worked on the case since September 1984.
The settlement signed Tuesday after approval by the commission acknowledged that Honda had already been required by Feb. 29 to provide jobs along for all the blacks and women who were originally turned down.
''They've all been hired in the last couple of years, and they're still working here,'' Roger Lambert, a spokesman for Honda of America, said in an interview from the Marysville, Ohio headquarters, adding that there was no last-minute rush to meet the Feb. 29 deadline.
''We have not been required to hire any additional people as a result of this agreement, and we have not hired anyone any earlier than required by our production needs,'' he said. ''The five-year agreement resolves an investigation of systemic discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,'' the commission chairman, Clarence Thomas, said in a statement. Details of SettlementContinue reading the main story
''It provides $6 million in monetary relief and seniority adjustments to approximately 370 specifically identified black and female individuals who applied for jobs at Honda between 1983 and 1986,'' he said.
The average award was approximately $16,200, although Mr. Friedman noted that individual awards varied according to specific cases.
''We are pleased to reach this agreement with the E.E.O.C.,'' Al Kinzer, vice president and senior manager of administration at Honda, said in a statement. ''Honda of America is known for its commitment to personal growth and development. Honda's participation in this agreement underscores our continuing commitment to these principles.'' Earlier Agreement
The agreement is the second E.E.O.C.-Honda settlement in less than a year. Mr. Friedman declined to say whether additional discrimination investigations against Honda were pending.
In June 1987 Honda and the commission reached agreement on an age discrimination investigation that provided back pay totaling $461,610. The agreement called for employment and seniority adjustments for 85 people 40 years old and over who had applied unsuccessfully for jobs at Honda in 1984 and 1985, but who had been hired prior to the settlement.
Mr. Friedman said the age discrimination case was settled first because the statute of limitations on such matters runs out more quickly if not handled with dispatch. The statute of limitations on Title VII issues can be held in abeyance indefinitely once a finding of discrimination is filed.
No civil suits were filed in connection with this case, he said.
Honda has manufacturing plants near Marysville, Ohio, outside Columbus and in Anna, Ohio, and recently announced plans for a $561 million expansion of United States manufacturing operations, including construction of a second Honda auto assembly plant near Marysville.
In addition to the monetary payments and the hiring of those it failed to employ earlier, Honda also agreed to expand its recruitment area to cover Columbus and expand specific recruitment efforts for blacks; to change promotion procedures and make a commitment to promote additional production workers who are blacks and women, and to begin a training program to teach Honda managers about the discrimination law.Continue reading the main story

I read an article on Quora by Michael Santos where he talks about his release from prison after serving 25 years. He talks about the plans he made for his release and what he did in the months following. Two paragraphs stood out for me:
"My work of writing about the prison experience has put me in contact with hundreds of other prisoners. In my book Earning Freedom: Conquering a 45-Year Prison Term, I wrote about what I learned from others who were released from prison after long sentences. Many spoke about the need to connect with family, to walk in the wilderness, to explore nature. For some reason that I cannot explain, I have not felt that those aspects of freedom were crucial, at least during these first months. I've felt an urgency to build a sustainable business, something that would allow me to live independently. Such obsessions likely have roots in the way that I conditioned myself through the time that I served. I interviewed hundreds of men who returned to confinement after their initial release, and their stories convinced me that the best way to ensure I would not get pulled back into the criminal justice system was to create a life of stability.
As a consequence of priorities I set, several months passed before I allowed myself the liberty to spend time with family. I work seven days each week. I've been quasi free for more than five months. Other than time I spend with my wife, all of my energy has been an investment in building a career. After solving the first hurdle of learning how to drive again, I've had to immerse myself in technology that did not exist before my prison term began. I've learned about the Internet, about social media, about how to send an email or use an iPhone. Whereas others missed being close to nature and family, at this stage of my release, my priority has been learning how to build a platform. I intend to use it in ways to reform America's prison system, to bring awareness to it. I'd also like to show others the strategies I used to overcome it."
Here's a link to the whole article.
After decades behind bars, Michael Santos realized he needed to create a life of stability in order to ensure he would not go back to prison. I think this is the same thing addicts need to do in order to not relapse. This is where the help of a sober coach can be helpful.
Building a life of stability will help an addict have something to live for and a purpose in life. Michael Santos is an inspiration and I highly recommend his book as a model for reconstructing one's life.

For Immediate Release
July 16, 2015
MCFD Continues to Endanger Our Children
We Need Change now!
How many children have to be damaged or die before the BC government admits that the Ministry of Children and Family Development is irretrievably broken? Once again dangerous practices within the Ministry are being brought to light. And once again, the Ministry is failing to act. Children in British Columbia continue to be placed at risk by the very Ministry legally responsible for their safety. When are we as adults going to stand up and demand an end to the Ministry's reckless disregard of the obligation they hold on behalf of citizens of this province to protect our children?
In a blistering judgement from the BC Supreme Court, Judge Paul Walker has concluded that the Director of Child Protection and certain Ministry social workers "acted well outside of their statutory mandate and the duty to protect children", citing "intentional misconduct, bad faith, reckless disregard for their obligation to protect children, breach of the applicable standard of care to unreasonably supporting the custodial interests of the children's father even if it meant he sexually abused them."
In devastating detail, Judge Walker delineates actions which separated four children from their devoted and determined mother while trying to place them in the permanent care of a sexually abusive father. The mother's reports of the abuse went uninvestigated while she was officially labelled as mentally unstable. The Director, Supervisor, and social workers omitted and misrepresented facts in a report to Provincial Court. Sexual abuse of the children continued when Ministry staff allowed the father unsupervised access to the children, defying a court order forbidding private access.
For the past three years, residents and advocates from our community have been pressuring these same bureaucrats and professionals to respond to the needs of local children equally at risk. Their heartbreaking circumstances have been documented and brought to the attention of the Ministry and service providers directly and through the press – youth regularly ending up in emergency wards, some near death — victims of rape, alcohol and drug abuse. A number have considered or even tried suicide; some have succeeded.
We have pleaded with the Ministry to change the policies and practices which are seriously compromising the safety, well-being, and lives of these youth.

|[CONF] Apache Mahout > How To Release
|Wed, 01 Jun 2011 16:22:00 GMT
Space: Apache Mahout (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT) Page: How To Release (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/How+To+Release) Edited by Sean Owen: --------------------------------------------------------------------- *This page is prepared for Mahout committers. You need committer rights to create a new Mahout release.* h1. Release Planning Start a discussion on mahout-dev about having a release, questions to bring up include: * Any [Unresolved JIRA issues for the upcoming release | https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator!executeAdvanced.jspa?jqlQuery=project+%3D+MAHOUT+AND+resolution+%3D+Unresolved+AND+fixVersion+%3D+%220.6%22&runQuery=true&clear=true] * Any [Resolved or Closed JIRA issues missing a "Fix Version" | https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator!executeAdvanced.jspa?jqlQuery=project+%3D+MAHOUT+AND+%28status+%3D+Resolved+OR+status+%3D+Closed%29+AND+fixVersion+IS+NULL+AND+resolution+%3D+Fixed&runQuery=true&clear=true] that should be marked as fixed in this release? * Does any documentation need an update? * Who is going to be the "release engineer"? * What day should be targeted for the release ? Leave buffer time for a code freeze and release candidate testing; make sure at least a few people commit to having time to help test the release candidates around the target date. h1. Code Freeze For 7-14 days prior to the release target date, have a "code freeze" where committers agree to only commit things if they: * Are documentation improvements (including fixes to eliminate Javadoc warnings) * Are new test cases that improve test coverage * Are bug fixes found because of improved test coverage * Are new tests and bug fixes for new bugs encountered by manually testing h1. Steps For Release Engineer h2. Before building release # Check that all tests pass after a clean compile: mvn clean test # Check that there are no remaining unresolved Jira issues with the upcoming version number listed as the "Fix" version # Publish any prev. unpublished Third Party Deps: [Thirdparty Dependencies] h2. Making a release # Check if documentation needs an update # Update news in {{src/site/new_website/index.html}} # Commit these changes. It is important to do this prior to the build so that it is reflected in the copy of the website included with the release for documentation purposes. # If this is your first release, add your key to the KEYS file. The KEYS file is located in Subversion at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/mahout/trunk/distribution/KEYS and copy it to the release directory. Make sure you commit your change. See http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html. # Ensure you have set up standard Apache committer settings in ~/.m2/settings.xml as per [this page|http://maven.apache.org/developers/committer-settings.html]. # Add a profile to your ~/.m2/settings.xml in the <profiles> section with: {code} <profiles> <profile> <id>mahout_release</id> <properties> <gpg.keyname>YOUR PGP KEY NAME</gpg.keyname> <gpg.passphrase>YOUR SIGNING PASSCODE HERE</gpg.passphrase> <deploy.altRepository>mahout.releases::default::https://repository.apache.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/</deploy.altRepository> <username>USERNAME</username> <deploy.url>https://repository.apache.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/</deploy.url> </properties> </profile> </profiles> {code} # Set environment variable MAVEN_OPTS to -Xmx1024m to ensure the tests can run # If you are outside the US, then svn.apache.org may not resolve to the main US-based Subversion servers. (Compare the IP address you get for svn.apache.org with svn.us.apache.org to see if they are different.) This will cause problems during the release since it will create a revision and then immediately access, but, there is a replication lag of perhaps a minute to the non-US servers. To temporarily force using the US-based server, edit your equivalent of /etc/hosts and map the IP address of svn.us.apache.org to svn.apache.org. # Create the release candidate: {{mvn -Pmahout_release release:prepare release:perform}}. If you have problems authenticating to svn.apache.org, try adding to the command line {{-Dusername=\[user\] -Dpassword=\[password\]}}. If it screws up, do not clean or release:clean without first trying to do: release:rollback. This will likely save you time and do the right thing. If it doesn't work, then do clean and release:clean and also delete the tag from svn, if it was created. You may also have to rollback the version numbers in the POM files # Review the artifacts, etc. on the Apache Repository (using Sonatype's Nexus application) site: https://repository.apache.org/. You will need to login using your ASF SVN credentials and then browse to the staging area. # Once you have reviewed the artifacts, you will need to "Close" out the staging area under Nexus, which then makes the artifacts available for others to see. ## Log in to Nexus ## Click the Staging Repositories link in the left hand menu ## Click the Mahout staged one that was just uploaded by the release:perform target ## Click Close in the toolbar. See https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Closing+a+Staging+Repository for a picture ## Copy the "Repository URL" link to your email; it should be like https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachemahout-024/ # Call a VOTE on email@example.com. Votes require 3 days before passing.

I separated into 3 batches, bit round around the kitchen preparing the noodle, when my 2nd batch just ready to pull from the pan. I looked on the fire; it was on minimum, so I grabbed my thongs and ready to take from the pan. In a blink, a splash of oil –hot oil from the pan- just splashed onto my right arm.
I was screaming. My daughter run toward me saw me in pain, I can see her body shaken and her hand was tremble. She screaming to, and stop in a sudden. My maid run to me, he turned the stove off, worried about the worse to come. My husband and my son run from upstairs. My son looked at my hand with disbelief. It was red, burn. I felt terribly hot inside my hand. My husband asked my son to find some kind of cream, but we all in panic, bit of chaos, he couldn't found it. The only thing we found was aloe-Vera cooling gel –it suppose to be for sun-burnt-
Looked on my hand, my husband decided to go to hospital. Lucky it was quiet in Emergency room last night, so I can have a long chat with the doctor about my arm, and we ended with burger for dinner from the hospital café.
Now it got me thinking.
I never thought that with one arm malfunction, it just hard to do everything. I am not losing my arm, just cannot have the flexibility while it's swelling and wrapped with bandage. Even the simple task so energy-consuming. I take everything for granted. I guess we never learn until it happen, and now this accident simply open my mind the importance of having good health and be thankful for it.

For the last two years I have worked hard to represent the people of Lewisham Deptford in Parliament.
Since being elected in 2015 I have dealt with over 7,500 pieces of casework from constituents, covering a wide range of issues from housing problems and immigration issues to street repairs and planning concerns.
I have always tried to be as accessible as possible. I have a shopfront office on the Tanners Hill estate and my door is open to any constituent who has a concern. Lewisham Deptford has been my home for over fifteen years and I care passionately about the issues affecting local residents.
I have also been working to re-establish Deptford First, a charity which supports local people who have nowhere else to turn through the provision of small grants.

Semi-moist Sand substrate experiment for hognose
Listening to field herpers who live in Western hognose range, it is clear that these snakes occupy sandy soils that hold their burrows. The sand is usually slightly base in PH.
I could not get any of alkaline sand where I live. Playsand is rounded (safer than building sand) but has rather large grains that drain mositure very fast, and calcium sand is too sharp. I did what I have done for kingsnakes and mixed coir substrate with playsand to allow for a very sandy soil that holds moisture better/longer. Although I really want the very fine-grain slightly alkaline sand of many W. hognose habitats, I tried this compromise to see what happens and placed a piece of pine board on top.
The hognose makes burrows into the soil and under the board. The snake will disappear for long periods sometimes, but always comes out at a certain time to look for food. Really interesting to watch him use the cage setup. I use overhead heating at the moment to heat the board. Undercage heat will work just as well. The snake will not dry out as long as the substrate is kept slightly moist under the surface. Depth is about 3.5 inches, hoggie is a year old and small.
Unfortunately this kind of setup requires more maintenance time than aspen shavings. Thought I would share. Dry sand as a substrate is not good and probably irritates skin and eyes. A sandy soil that holds some moisture is far better if anyone is interested in trying something other than aspen ( I must admit, aspen is a good all-around substrate and easier to clean).

Semi-moist Sand substrate experiment for hognose
Hello. I too have had similar results and findings. I first got the idea from an older Herpetologist that spends hours and hours studying Western Hognose Snakes in the wild and in captivity to learn more about their natural history and differences between wild and captive H. nascius.
I have done similarly with my single Western Hognose and 2 Eastern Hognose Snakes. I have found that burrowing is more prevalent in the Western species, whereas the Eastern prefers moderate digging to help then get into secure surface hiding areas.
Moist sand is better to help hold burrow shape, but care must be exercised when people read this and intend to follow this method. The sand must be just damp enough to hold shape, no more. The issue arises in that hognose snakes are more susceptible to moisture sores, potentially resulting in infections, than colubrids such as Lampropeltis, Pantherophis, and Nerodia. In the wild they burrow among root systems and rocks that help assist in burrow formation.
I have also noted though that dry sand does not negatively affect the snakes (Heterodon). For about 7 months before keeping the sand moist I had the sand dry. The snakes were all fine and had no abrasions on the skin -- just a note :)

My Tea Party
My ancestors Jacques and Lea Cossairt joined a party of French Huguenots and Dutch Protestants and migrated to the New World in 1662 on a ship with ninety men, women, and children aboard. The family left France, where they had lived for countless generations, due to extreme religious persecution against Protestants. Coming to the American colonies because it afforded them the freedom to practice their religion and to live the way they wanted to live, they settled in New Amsterdam, now New York City, and joined the Dutch Reform Church where all of their children were baptized.
The Cossairts worked hard and put down new roots in the rich American soil. Their youngest son Anthony moved to New Jersey. His grandson Anthony Cossairt III fought in the American Revolution. He was captured by the British in a skirmish at Builford Courthouse and never seen again ...

Drinking Water Quality Testing
Clean water from the tap is a modern convenience that we all take for granted. It's not until something goes wrong that we realize how much.
Due to the Flint, Michigan crisis there has been increased national interest in understanding the laws and procedures used by our state and local water authorities to make our water safe.
This increased exposure has led to an increase in drinking water quality testing as people want to be certain of their water quality.
Are you buying a home with a well?
If so then yes; it is highly recommended that you have the water tested for contaminants and bacteria. Private well water has a higher potential for water contamination than public water. This is regardless of whether the home has a drilled well or a dug well. In fact FHA/VA mortgages require water testing as part of the terms.
In addition after you move into a home with well water ongoing water testing is recommended to monitor the potability of your water.
Are you buying a home on a public water system?
Approximately 90% of New Yorkers are on public water. The New York State Department of Health mandates that public water authorities regularly test their water to make sure it is safe and consumable. Because this testing occurs at the treatment facility, not at the tap you drink from there are still a few things to consider.
How does water become contaminated?
Lead pipes (according to the EPA 10-20% of lead exposure comes from drinking water), tree roots that compromise pipes, pesticides in private water and lack of oversight from water authorities.
To date there are no known instances of water contamination from the public water controlled by OCWA or the Syracuse Water Authority.
What does a water test look for?
Drinking water analysis involves capturing water from your homes faucet and testing for contaminants and bacteria. Results of the analysis are usually available within 72 hours.
Our water test includes analysis for the most common contaminants and bacteria including:
- Total Coliform
- coli
- Lead
- Nitrate
- Nitrite
- Turbidity
- Iron
- Manganese
- pH

And speaking of stale, isn't that the same thing as drinking the same wine over and over again? Trapped by habit, some people mechanically reach for the same labels and varieties each shopping trip. I don't understand it — with all the wine choices in the world, don't they get bored?
It's easy to land in a chardonnay or cabernet rut; there are gazillions of gallons on the market. But other grape varieties should earn your respect. For chard drinkers, try sémillon (SEM-ee-yon), viognier (vee-oh-NYAY), and pinot gris (PEE-no-GREE). Often full-bodied and wildly aromatic, these wines have the aroma to lure you and the oomph to keep you. They are rarely acidic or tart like sauvignon blanc, characteristics that normally send chardonnay lovers screaming back into their comfort zone.
For those who like the big, beefy punch of cabernet sauvignon, explore cabernet franc or California syrah. Cab franc, for years an underrated blending grape, can be as bold and full-bodied as cabernet sauvignon with an equally long aging life. Syrah uses the same grape as Australian shiraz, but the bigger Aussie wineries have dumbed it down a bit for mass consumption; California syrah, by contrast, is gutsy. With similar flavor profiles as cabernet sauvignon — black cherry, tobacco, chocolate and leather — don't ignore syrah on the wine aisles and lists.
Red blends can also deliver a similar punch, combining the best of all worlds in one bottle. Winemakers have been blending since the beginning of time, adding a pinch of this and a dab of that to create a final masterpiece. They represent perhaps the best alternatives for cab lovers wanting to kick the habit.
Recommended Wines
Ponzi 2003 Pinot Gris Willamette Valley (OR) Medium-bodied and rife with pears, tart minerals and an intriguing green grape aftertaste that deliciously lingers forever. Oregon loves pinot gris. Sweetness = 4. $13.
Conn Creek 2000 Cabernet Franc Napa Valley (CA) Rich with red raspberry and red cherry, laced with tobacco and leather. Deliciously sinful. Sw = 1. $24.
Columbia Valley Winery 2001 Syrah Columbia Valley (WA) Drips with dark black cherry, spicy black pepper and even a hint of black olives, oddly enough. Great price. Sw = 1. $10.
Simon Hackett 2004 Brightview Semillon Barossa Valley (AU) Well-balanced with low acids, creamy honey flavors and a touch of green grass. Cool wine. Sw = 2. $16.
Evans and Tate 2003 Margaret River Classic Red (AU) A complex blend of the classics: shiraz, cabernet and merlot. Combines all the best flavors of each variety: vibrant black cherry, rich chocolate, ripe blackberry with black pepper. Amazing value at $15. Sw = 1.
Ruston 2003 Semillon Napa Valley (CA) Nice, full mouthfeel that caresses the tongue with honeydew melon, mown grass and wet slate minerals. Sw = 3. $16.

The German federal parliament (Bundestag) yesterday approved a new law giving migrant arrivals to the country ID cards. They are part of a newly-centralised system designed to allow government agencies to access information with ease.
It is hoped the compulsory migrant ID cards will address security concerns expressed by the German public following the Paris terrorist attacks and the migrant sex attacks in Cologne on New Year's Eve, reports the Financial Times.
Aiming for what Interior minister Thomas de Maizière calls "improvements, control and order" the ID cards are intended to improve monitoring of the huge migrant influx Germany is experiencing as part of the ongoing migrant crisis. In particular they are meant to prevent the mis-identification or double-counting of migrants, or indeed them being missed altogether.
The plans were first approved by Chancellor Merkel's government late last year, but recent events gave the initiative added impetus.
In Cologne one of the problems police faced was identifying the alleged attackers. One migrant reportedly tore up his identification papers in front of a police officer saying: "You can't do anything to me. I can get a new one tomorrow."
Beginning February, with full roll out expected by the summer, migrants registered in Germany will receive one ID card containing all information needed for an asylum application, reports Deutsche Welle. Such information will include fingerprints, country of origin, contact details, health status and qualifications.
To date Germany has had a somewhat decentralised system which has been blamed for letting migrants fake their identity or even register multiple times. The consequences of failing to identify migrants have proved serious.
Investigations into the 20-year-old terrorist who was shot dead earlier this month when attacking a police station in Paris found he had lived in Germany as well as France, and used seven different identities.
It is estimated that up to 80 per cent of migrants arriving in Germany (of which there were 1.1 million in 2015) have faked papers or no papers at all, especially those who are not fleeing persecution or warzones. This means that when asylum applications are rejected it is still not possible to deport them, and with around half of all applications for asylum in Germany being rejected the numbers are substantial.

Acute versus Chronic Stress
It has been a few weeks since offering my last tidbits on living a fit life. (Next week the discussion will be on exactly that. What is a fitness?) For now, let's delve into the feelings we have from stress and their potential consequences. Stress shows its ugly face in a variety of ways, but the most popular is by way of a physical feeling. This may be a tight or crampy muscle, a headache, a stomach ache, or even a mess in the porcelain bowl. Each is a warning sign that something is amiss whatever that may be.
The question that often made is: So What? Well, a warning sign usually means you may need to look into what the physical feeling could mean. Acute stress usually comes in a full force feeling of pain, but often times is ignored because it comes and leaves quickly. Or did it??? This stress is the initial warning that needs to be addressed. More often than not the reason it went away is because the body was able to compensate away from the stress and give the appearance that your body is working at normal function. The appearance is smoke and mirrors. Something was wrong, but more than likely was not corrected to the original normal. If this happens often enough (and it usually does), then we reach a point where we can no longer compensate away from the stress and a chronic annoyance arrives. At this point, the odds of moving to original function or at least to a point where the body can adapt because more slim. This is the time we usually call the doctor or some other practitioner to aid our dilemma, but often times a correction that will meet our needs is not available unless we can find a way to give our body the opportunity to heal and repair the previous stresses.
