DETTOL ,Ok I read about this stuff online .I looked for months then I discovered they meant just old fashion DETTOL antiseptic .It works great just mix .50/50 with water .I just put the mixture in a plastic Chinese meal container and leave it over night. I slowly worked up to this with every new brand just incase ,some take longer to strip than others .But it starts to work in under an Hour.I use a hard tooth brush to get into the grooves and panel lines.
So far ive stripped factory paint off Avant, Slot it. Fly, Ninco. still doing an old scaley Mini might need some caustic Soda to finish .Some get a little gummy ,I stripped that of by rinsing them in caustic soda.Ive stripped Tamiya paint and Testors paint of as well .It doesn't do well with Tamiya Polycarb though. works great on Old plastic models too.
I have 1 old AMT kit melt slightly but I remember using a Turps mix on it so I could just be that.
Coles sell a large 750 mil bottle for under $10 , DETTOL (Antiseptic Disinfectant Household grade ) with the cleaning products .don't look in the medical section it will cost you as much for a little bottle.
Never use Caustic Soda on those old flexible plastic scaley Bodies it Fs them.

During 2005, local, state and federal governments planned to spend approximately $30 billion on school construction in the U.S., according to the National Clearinghouse for Educational Facilities (NCEF). That was before hurricane season changed everything.
In early September, Hurricanes Katrina and Rita destroyed or damaged approximately 236 public and private K-12 schools across Louisiana. Storm damage displaced approximately 245,000 students and more than 30,000 school employees, including teachers.
Louisiana was hardest hit. But Mississippi schools suffered significant damage as well. Early reports indicated that 130,000 students had been displaced from Mississippi schools, with 30 school buildings being completely destroyed and hundreds more damaged.
Federal, state and local officials have only just begun to tally up the unprecedented recovery costs imposed by Katrina and Rita. Whatever the numbers turn out to be, the cost of repairing and rebuilding the educational infrastructure will look microscopic compared to the overall cost. Still, the educational tab will be substantial.
More important, perhaps, repairing and rebuilding educational facilities will represent a key to successful overall recovery.When we talk about rebuilding the Gulf Coast, we are talking about rebuilding more than just a region, says U.S. Senator from Louisiana Mary L. Landrieu.We are talking about rebuilding communities, neighborhoods and people's lives. To do this, it is imperative that we rebuild our education system and schools stronger than ever before.
How much will it cost to rebuild the education system? According to Donna Hales, a spokesperson for the Mississippi Department of Education, mid-October estimated damage assessments found that schools in more than 100 of the state's school districts sustained some level of storm damage. Estimates of the cost to repair and rebuild Mississippi's school facilities totaled more than $321 million.
In Louisiana, costs will likely run much higher. The state's congressional delegation has estimated that the overall cost of rebuilding the state's educational system could approach $8 billion, with more than $2 billion going to the repair and construction of school facilities.
How can flood damage cost so much? Observers note that Katrina and Rita caused damage far beyond the problems created by run-of-the-mill hurricanes. In addition to roof repair and structural damage that occurs with any hurricane, problems arise from utterly unexpected sources. For example, construction companies and builders in New Orleans have been wiped out. Only a handful of contractors are available to do the work. Only a couple of those have tools. Tools, as well as buildings, were destroyed by the storms.
At the same time, construction materials, easy enough to find locally before the storms, are no longer available from local businesses. Hauling in wallboard, cement, wood, plastic pipe, steel and other building materials will add substantially to costs.
Then, there is the issue of speed. In Las Vegas, they are building 100 new schools at the rate of about 12 per year, says Judy Marks, associate director of the National Clearing House of Educational Facilities. That's very fast. But Louisiana and Mississippi have construction needs that go far beyond what Las Vegas is doing. It will be a huge logistics problem. And keep in mind that you have to rebuild houses, shopping centers, office buildings and other infrastructure at the same time. There has never been a problem like this. It is unprecedented.
Landrieu, a Democrat, and her Republican colleague, Senator David Vitter, have introduced legislation that will, if enacted, provide as much as $250 billion through five years to rebuild the state. Funding for the legislation, formally called Senate Bill 1765, would come in addition to Congressional emergency relief appropriations of $62.3 billion made in the immediate aftermath of the storms.
The bill has elicited criticism from both the conservative and liberal sides of the political spectrum. Fox News dismisses the proposal as pork, while the Washington Post's editorial page compared the request to the post-Katrina looting that occurred in New Orleans.
According to a September 27 Washington Post editorial: The Louisiana bill is so preposterous that its authors can't possibly expect it to pass; it's just the first round in a process of negotiation…Congress should ignore the Louisiana bill and force itself to think seriously about the sort of reconstruction that makes sense.
Aides to Senator Landrieu bristle at the suggestion of pork and looting.
No one ever expected this bill (Senate Bill 1765) to be passed, says Sally Richardson, a spokesperson for Senator Landrieu. It wasn't designed for that. It was designed as a blueprint for how to proceed. The congressional delegation met with thousands of people from Louisiana to develop the bill. The idea is that pieces of this bill will show up in other legislation as it moves through Congress.
For example, continues Richardson, some of the small business elements in the bill have been incorporated into a piece of legislation related to small business. Similarly, several healthcare elements from the bill have been incorporated into healthcare legislation currently moving through Congress.
As of late October, none of the proposals related to the education system had been approved.
At least some of the controversy over funding the re-construction in Louisiana may stem from a continuing inability to imagine the full scope of the disaster. It isn't that homes are underwater; that happens with every hurricane, wrote Senator Landrieu in response to the Washington Post's editorial. It is that an entire region vital to our national energy supply, security and commerce has been devastated.
How bad was the level of devastation? In the city of New Orleans, it was so bad that all residents were driven out. Now the problem is figuring out how the city can bring back its one-time residents. Similarly, officials must ponder the problem of bringing back residents that fled other jurisdictions. In both cases, school-rebuilding programs will play an important role in the answer.
Families with children of school age are unlikely to return until the New Orleans schools are rebuilt. Just as any family considering a move to a new community evaluates the quality of the schools, displaced New Orleans families will evaluate the quality of the schools in their home areas before returning to the state. If there are no schools or if the schools that are available aren't any good, they won't come back.
How can a state move its education system from virtually non-existent to good enough to bring families back?
Advice about how Louisiana should rebuild its schools is arriving from many sources.
Ideas include schools designed as community learning centers that provide social services beyond education. Community learning centers might share resources such as libraries and athletic facilities with surrounding communities. These centers might also provide continuing education for adults in local communities. They might provide job counseling and employment services.
Others suggest rebuilding Louisiana schools with an eye to the evolving relationships between K-12 schools and two- and four-year colleges. Can K-12 school design and educational programmers improve on today's model? One idea, for example, proposes designs called early college high schools that combine high school and college. These high schools would be co-located on college campuses.
Still other educational experts are advising that new schools employ the best concepts of sustainable design and energy efficiency.
Former U.S. Secretary of Education Richard Riley has urged education funds earmarked to rebuild Louisiana schools must not be wasted on constructing schools in the outdated design destroyed by the storm. Riley's remarks came in a memorandum sent to members of the House and Senate education and Appropriations Committees. In the memo, Riley goes on to say: The next supplemental or emergency appropriation should include the necessary funds to help design these schools, with community input, as community learning centers.
In the end, many observers note that the damage done to Louisiana and Mississippi schools may have a silver lining — the opportunity to makeover school facilities in a region where many school facilities had fallen into disrepair.

Last week, Apple quietly released notes about the existence of an Apple-specific web crawler, creatively dubbed Applebot. The notes provided by Apple are brief and vague, stating that Applebot is used by "products including Siri and Spotlight Search" (italics are mine, more on this below), that it respects Robots.txt files and Robots meta tags, and if AppleBot is not specified, it will follow rules for Googlebot. Outside of providing an email for questions or concerns, that's about all that's mentioned in the update. And I would guess that email's getting pounded, as this brief update leaves many questions up in the air.
In Apple's note, they don't specify exactly what Applebot will be powering. Sure, they mention Siri and Spotlight Search, but only as examples of the products that will use it. Do other products use it or will they in the future? What other products and how will this impact user experience on iOS devices? Can Apple truly compete with Google in this area, the company that essentially defined online search and controls 70% of the market? If Apple is creating a broader search engine, will it be an ad-free environment? What influence will brands have over organic search visibility, if any?
Let's get some of the facts out on the table, and allow me to speculate about some of them.
Apple's contract with Google is up at the end of the year. And most agree that they won't renew. This leaves an opening for a default engine used by Safari on Apple's devices. Will it be Bing, Wolfram Alpha, DuckDuckGo, or are they truly building their own?
Siri and Spotlight Search are currently powered by Bing and Wolfram Alpha. Obviously, this will change in the future. Is Apple dissatisfied with their results, or do they simply want more control?
Mobile search recently overtook desktop on Google. We've been expecting it for some time, but now it's a reality. Mobile is big. Mobile is growing. Apple knows mobile. Are they uniquely qualified to deliver a full mobile experience inclusive of hardware and software? Let's all consider how well this has worked with Apple Maps.
Apple acquired social search company Topsy in 2013. This was a somewhat curious acquisition at the time, but now it's starting to make sense. The Topsy team is now leading Apple's internal search group, which is said to be rapidly expanding (confirmed by the existence of several job postings for search positions). Apple also announced that tweets will soon be included in Spotlight Search results. Creating a search crawler is a major task, but how big of a team do they really need if it's only going to power Siri and Spotlight Search?
Apple has stated that they make products, not software. That's their bread and butter, and they wouldn't have it any other way. Except they might need to. Hardware is becoming increasingly commoditized. Apple may lead the pack as the top smartphone manufacturer, but Android is the most used platform with 52.4% of market share, 9.8% higher than iOS. To diversify their products and continue driving exorbitant amounts of revenue, further diving into software products (and generating ad revenue) may be a smart move.
We'll have to wait and see what Apple's full intentions for Applebot are, but for the time being, it's nice to see that they're providing at least some instructions for how the new crawler will access websites. I personally look forward to the diversity and competition that a new, legitimate rival to Google could bring.

"Sit, be still and listen for you are drunk and we are at the edge of the roof" - Rumi, 13th Century
Click here for more on the movie. I can't find it used so I hope a used one will find it's way to my door one day.
I continue to find blogs and websites dedicated to simple living and homesteading. Some of these places have been running for years. Almost daily I find more and more information, there is just so much out there. It seems bizarre that I've been interested in simple living for years and I still manage to "discover" sites, or movies or blogs that have been around for a long time.
I've been working from home since August. My commute is from the bedroom to the desk and it's wonderful. The view from the desk is an old red barn with glassless window frames in the back. The field of yellow dandelions on the other side of the barn shows through the empty panes so that it looks like little yellow boxes on the side of the red weathered barn. If I lean a little to the right, I can see an old yellow house down the road and another field of yellow dandelions. If I lean back and look out the other window, I can see the back porch which is always occupied by at least one animal taking a nap.
By chance an animal lounge has been created on the back porch. An old recliner was put out when my cat had an accident after struggling with a UTI. Since we picked it up for under $20 when we got here, it wasn't too difficult a sacrifice to let the babies have it. I put the dogs' folded up comforter that is their bed and their pillow out. There is a blow up dog house that the cats usually lay on top of and occasionally poke holes in during the required claw extensions of stretching. There is a big piece of scrap carpet also perfect for lounging. We just put a few chairs there for us as well. Now all the animals just hang out there. All the cats and dogs together, staying out of trouble. Rufus the pig is sometimes found on the porch too since he's figured out how to climb the stairs. It's no small feat for a 200lb pig to go up stairs. It's great seeing a few cats curled up together on the lounge chair and at their feet lay a few dogs. There are cats lounging on our chairs and dog house too. I like having them close to the house and this couldn't have worked out better if I had planned it.
My employer has asked me to fly to
I feel so much empathy for people that want out of the city and the office environment, but feel they are trapped and don't see a way out. I don't know why so many good things have happened to me in the last few years. I don't know why I get to live this way and others do not. I wish everyone could live the way they want and could experience other types of lifestyles so that they could even make an education guess about what sort of life they want. People all over the world feel trapped in their lives and so few have been able to find a way out of their prisons. I guess I feel guilty to some extent that so many things have just worked out. Who am I that I should be so blessed? Aren't there more deserving people out there? It seems though that there are many that could get out if only they knew how.
So much of this wasn't planned, but only dreamed of. Things just sort of fell into place every step of the way, things I could never have planned on. But many people have dreams, many people work hard. In
I don't have the best job in the world and at times it brings me to tears out of sheer frustration over stupidity. I stay for several reasons though, the main one being I'm only a few years from retirement, have 3 weeks of paid vacation, can work from home (although that's a fairly recent development), and as frustrating as my job is, I know it well. I don't think I have the disposition to learn a new line of work since my brain is already focused on my second "full time job" of being self-sufficient. When you work in an office environment for a large company, you have to check your pride, self worth, creativity, power and logic at the door. Things that should be important are not, and things that are not important are critical. Any movie you've seen about the insanity of working in an office is probably true or even toned down a bit, at least in my case. Working here does conflict with the changes I am making and I do feel torn and even exhausted sometimes as the end of my work day nears from 8 hours of backwards thinking. I'm closer to being able to retire than ever before and as of right now, I see this job as being the fastest vehicle I can use to get to my goal. That's all it is. I have no desire to writhe up any higher on the ladder. I live like a person that makes a fraction of the income I do, so that I can get to retirement faster.
I carefully purchase items that will be needed when I no longer have a steady income; things that will last and that require little or no power. I've lost my courage to up and quit; though I dream about it daily and I was ready to when I moved here - if that is what it would take. So many people are brave and take a total blind leap of faith; I wish I could do that now. Before I worked from home I could. I told them I was moving to NY and I was fully prepared to find whatever job I could when I got here. Now that I've become accustomed to my nice quite cocoon of working from home, I fear having to go back into an office and spending gas on a commute. So I stay, and I count my pennies and the hours till that day when I'll need so little money coming in I'll be able to sell things from home. Once we have finished rehabbing this house, then I can re-evaluate the timing. We scavenge for used materials and only reluctantly buy new when there are no other options. We are many thousands of dollars under budget on fixing this old place up, though to be honest most of that is because the tree fell through the house and insurance paid for the roof. I'm trying not to plan details too far in advance, though loose ideas of plans at least give me an idea of where I'm going. A thousand things could happen betwixt now and then, so I'm hopeful that another wonderful change is coming my way to speed up the process.
I went online once and filled out a retirement calculator. The amount calculated is staggering and frightening. How could this number be correct? What is factored into the monstrous amount? Buying food, utilities and insurance I'm sure is included. Where is the retirement calculator for the self-sufficient? I think these retirement calculators do nothing but keep people in fear, keep them dependent on a job they hate and keep them focused on staying in the middle class job market as long as possible. I think we should all come up with our own retirement calculator. What do I absolutely need when I retire? What will feed and shelter me? For most purchases I ask myself if this is something that will last and will I need it to care of myself when I retire? Can life sustaining systems such as food production and storage of water be eventually semi-automated to provide for me when I'm older? In order to live full time in pursuit of my happiness, I need to retire from this job. I don't want work until I'm worn out just so that I have enough to take care of me when I'm no longer able. I want to work towards making my life simpler and self-sustaining now while I have the energy.
There are many systems that if set up properly will produce food and create a beautiful haven for wildlife with little human intervention. I saw a program once about a Japanese garden where a beautifully stocked coy pond spilled over via a waterfall fertilizing some sort of water growing edible plant. It could have been rice or something else, I can't quite remember. There were a few other wonderful steps in between and somehow the water filtered back through rocks into the original pond. It was all on a self-sustaining cycle just like in nature. The gardener said after it was all setup, he didn't do much to it but eat the produce. I have not been able to find that episode again though. I've also seen beautiful water capturing and cleaning systems that use a reed garden and other plants to provide water for the gardens and household use. Just a simple barrel with a filter under the gutters is a place to start capturing water. I've read articles about a mesh fabric that captures water from fog and provides water to a village. A simple search for self-sustaining gardens will turn up an amazing amount of material, so I have yet to find my Japanese gardener again. I haven't read this book yet, but I hope to someday soon: The Self Sustaining Garden. What value do these systems have in a retirement calculator? How much money would you need to live on if you spend your money now setting up systems such as these? They are in my retirement calculator and learning these sorts of things is in my retirement planning. It is one of the ways I invest my time.
I am looking for a hand-cranked grain mill and flaker. I am putting together a simple household with low maintenance, long lasting tools such as that. I don't think there are too many tools needed since many tools have dual purposes. If a knife will suffice for the job, then I don't need any other fancy cutting gadgets. Having an earth sheltered home with earthen floors and radiant heat will not only provide a beautiful tactile experience, but will help keep the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter and will mean little to no heating and cooling costs. A root cellar or pit will keep many of my food items fresh all winter. Solar panels and wind turbines can occasionally be found used if you are patient and will reduce dependence on a utility company. Metal trash cans are used to store grains in and old timbers used to make raised beds. I doubt any of these are factored into online retirement calculators. So If I have a low maintenance house with no mortgage that requires almost no heating or cooling and is made of natural materials, use solar panels and wind turbines for power, a water capturing system, self-sustaining and traditional gardens, fruit orchards, and I have gotten years of healthy exercise setting systems up and working my gardens; then how much will I need to retire? Suddenly it doesn't seem like so much.
The thought of building a house like this used to seem overwhelming and only for the rich. After meeting new friends and helping out others build their homes, I found out that if you are patient the homes can be built without a mortgage. There is a tremendous amount of wonderful people out there anxious to help the new ones. There are online green building groups. People put out the request for help making and putting up their clay plaster walls or earthen floors and people actually show up to help. I've done it. There are classes that can be taken, and though some are expensive, there are many that are not. There are videos for rent and some can even be found at the library. There are online book swaps and places like half.com where you can pick up wonderful educational resources for almost nothing. There are books like "Earthen Floors" by Bill and Athena Steen that walk you through the process. I haven't been to any of their classes because I found less expensive ones to attend, though they are flexible on the cost and will work with you. You don't have to be rich, college educated or wait till your 65. I have found everything I need to know is either online, in a book or just an email, phone call or letter away. As I've gotten further away from the city, I've met more people willing to help.
I want a retirement of health, beauty, learning, teaching and having enough to meet my simple needs. The faster I do that, the healthier I will be as I age. I don't want to sit on my butt for the next 20 years for 40 hours a week. I want to be out there creating that self-sustaining garden and fruit orchard now. I want to spend my day in movement looking at 3D objects. The more I learn, the more excited I get about how attainable this all is.
Here is a random thought that I doubt will ever fit into a blog posting: Wouldn't it be awesome if someone figured out how to harness the power of chlorophyll to provide for our energy needs? It seems abundant and powerful. Maybe they already have and I just haven't stumbled across it yet.


text: You are here: Home > Training courses > Training news > Film director to the rescue Film director puts own first aid skills into action in roadside drama A 38-year-old film director from Loggerheads, Staffordshire, is encouraging more people to learn first aid after putting his own skills into action when he came across a road traffic accident and helped prevent a cyclist becoming paralysed. Simon was driving back from Dorset when a traffic jam rerouted his sat nav and took him on a detour through the Gloucestershire village of Almondsbury. While on his journey, Simon came across a road traffic accident, where he could see a car with a dent in the side and someone on the floor in the road. In safe hands Simon used his car to block the scene to ensure no further harm would come to the person lying in the road and got out of his car to see if he could help. The man in the road was Michael, a 64-year-old cyclist, who had collided with the car and had suffered serious spinal injuries. Simon said: 'I could see straight away that Michael was in agony – he was writhing in pain. There was another motorist who had stopped to help too so we worked together to help Michael as best we could. It was a cold night and Michael was shaking – possibly because he was in shock – so I quickly ran to my car to get a blanket to try and keep him warm. 'I knew that the biggest concern would be the possibility of spinal injuries, so we tried to keep Michael as still as we could, supporting his head and neck. While another bystander called for an ambulance, I started talking to Michael to keep him calm and to get some details from him about his medical history and also any loved ones that would need to be called. 'He was very disorientated, but I tried to continue talking to him to reassure him that he was in good hands and that help was on the way.' Life-changing injuries Michael, an experienced cyclist who has been using his bike to commute to work for more than 40 years, broke three vertebrae, his collar bone and his shoulder blade. He was told that if he had tried to stand up after his accident, he would have been paralysed from the chest down. Michael said: 'I am so grateful to Simon and the others who helped me that day. I remember shortly after the accident, lying in the road and just being told to lie there and not to move, so I didn't attempt to get up. Without that advice, my life could have changed dramatically. I really feel very lucky to have met Simon.' Simon said: 'I did a first aid at work course with St John Ambulance because I often work in remote locations across the country and I want to be certain that should a medical emergency come up and we are miles from help, I am able to deal with the situation confidently. As it turns out, I wasn't at work when I needed to use my skills! I'm just glad I was able to help Michael that day, providing first aid and reassurance when he needed it most. Simon acted quickly and calmly and his actions certainly show that first aid can help to prevent life-changing injuries as well as save lives. If you've been in a similar situation and have had to put your first aid skills to use, we'd love to hear from you. Simply fill in our short online form and someone will be in touch.

Celtic wanted to sign Fabian Delph as a midfielder - but Man City could turn the England international into a full-back.
You'd have been forgiven for forgetting that Fabian Delph was still a Manchester City player this time last week.
The England international had barely featured across two seasons with City after all and, with Pep Guardiola spending over £200 million to reinforce an already fearsome squad this summer, it appears that Delph was set for another year of warming the bench.
And that may be true. Delph has only played 20 minutes of football this season. However, when he has been given an opportunity of late, the 27-year-old has seized it in style.
Just four days after crashing home a late wondergoal to put the icing on City's 5-0 thrashing of Crystal Palace in the Premier League, the former Aston Villa captain showcased his versatility with a stand-out performance at left-back in Tuesday's 2-0 Champions League win over Shakhtar Donetsk at The Etihad.
"Fabian Delph was man of the match," an enthused Guardiola said in quotes reported by the Daily Star. "When a guy who is so kind and can help the team, he is intelligent, is physical and never loses the ball. He controlled (Shakhtar's Brazilian dangerman) Marlos and did it very well."
Therefore, Delph's potential revival as a makeshift left-back only provides another reason why he could have come in handy at Celtic this season. The Mail reported that The Hoops were desperate to offer the Leeds-born midfielder an escape route from City – although he would have been expensive at a club-record £12 million.
First choice midfielder, second choice left-back?
And while his energy and passing range would have added further quality to an already strong Celtic midfield, Delph could also have provided first-choice left-back Kieran Tierney with some experienced back-up. After losing Emilio Izaguirre in the summer, unproven teenager Calvin Miller is the only other option at Brendan Rodgers' disposal.
Though Delph, who played at left-back on a few occasions during Gerard Houllier's spell in charge of Villa, could have lessened Celtic's reliance upon the excellent Tierney.
As it is, however, the reborn midfielder chose to stay at City. And that is looking increasingly like a good decision.

Cutting-Edge Techniques to Better Analyze and Predict Complex Physical Phenomena
Geometric Modeling and Mesh Generation from Scanned Images shows how to integrate image processing, geometric modeling, and mesh generation with the finite element method (FEM) to solve problems in computational biology, medicine, materials science, and engineering. Based on the author's recent research and course at Carnegie Mellon University, the text explains the fundamentals of medical imaging, image processing, computational geometry, mesh generation, visualization, and finite element analysis. It also explores novel and advanced applications in computational biology, medicine, materials science, and other engineering areas.
One of the first to cover this emerging interdisciplinary field, the book addresses biomedical/material imaging, image processing, geometric modeling and visualization, FEM, and biomedical and engineering applications. It introduces image-mesh-simulation pipelines, reviews numerical methods used in various modules of the pipelines, and discusses several scanning techniques, including ones to probe polycrystalline materials.
The book next presents the fundamentals of geometric modeling and computer graphics, geometric objects and transformations, and curves and surfaces as well as two isocontouring methods: marching cubes and dual contouring. It then describes various triangular/tetrahedral and quadrilateral/hexahedral mesh generation techniques. The book also discusses volumetric T-spline modeling for isogeometric analysis (IGA) and introduces some new developments of FEM in recent years with applications.

"Congratulations to the first reference and textbook for a new interdisciplinary approach to image-based engineering and science. The book covers all topics ranging from imaging, image processing, geometric modeling, and mesh generation, to simulation and applications. It is an excellent textbook for both senior undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and engineers in aerospace, biomedical, civil, materials science, and mechanical engineering."
—Wing Kam Liu, PhD, PE, Walter P. Murphy Professor of Mechanical and Civil Engineering, Northwestern University
"Professor Zhang's book on image-derived geometric modeling and meshing will be an indispensable resource for researchers in computational biology and medicine where mesh-generation is a critical bottle neck. The author covers state-of-the-art methods such as isogeometric analysis and T-splines while providing a thorough background and ample practical examples for interdisciplinary readership."
—Andrew D. McCulloch, Distinguished Professor of Bioengineering and Medicine, University of California, San Diego
"This is a wide-ranging book, bringing together a set of topics not yet covered in a single book. It will give a graduate student or advanced undergraduate a solid foundation to understand a modern pipeline, which collects data from the real world and performs an engineering analysis of it, particularly biomedical data. Topics covered include numerical methods and basic geometric computations, various different 2D and 3D image capture techniques, image preprocessing, surface and volume mesh extraction, T-splines for geometric modeling, and various finite element methods for engineering analysis. The book is to be commended in its cross-discipline approach, including topics from math, computer science, and engineering. Students often just consider each topic in isolation but are not shown how the pieces fit together to make a whole. This book will give them the big picture."
—Ralph Martin, Cardiff University
We provide complimentary e-inspection copies of primary textbooks to instructors considering our books for course adoption.

Coral Aloe (Aloe striata)
Coral Aloe
Aloe striata
Coral Aloe is given its name by the unique coloring the leaves and the flowers have in the later winter and early spring. These coral red blooms contrast beautifully with the grey-green large thick succulent leaves of this aloe. The large stalks that grow from the center are where the blooms will appear and can be cut back after the blooming cycle has ended. These particular succulents are extremely hardy handling temperatures as cold as 20 degrees as well as being planted in full sun.
Originating from South Africa this succulent grows from sea level to over 7300 feet making it perfect for planting from Southern California, Nevada, and Arizona. These succulents should be planted in well-drained soil and can be planted in full sun to part shade depending on your landscape uses. These are a very water-wise plant as well as fire-wise once they are established and require little care. Moon Valley Nurseries has been growing succulents for over 25 years. Stop into any of our locations today and allow one of our expertly trained nursery pros to help you select the best plants for your landscape goals.

Volunteer Tree Planting Event along Lookout Creek at Sitton's Mill on Sells Lane
Saturday, February 8th at 10:00 am
Limestone Valley RC&D Council is leading a tree planting event to improve the vegetative buffer or riparian zone along Lookout Creek and complement a grant-funded effort to improve the water quality in the Lookout Creek Watershed. Riparian zones along creeks are important for a number of reasons including increased streambank stability and filtration of pollutants, as well as improved water quality.
Along with Limestone Valley RC&D Council, members of Dade County 4-H, Georgia Forestry Commission, and Trenton Tree City will likely assist with the event. 300 white oaks, red oaks, persimmons, and dogwoods will be planted along the creek to improve the stability of the banks of Lookout Creek, as well as the local aesthetics near Sitton's Mill.
Shovels and a few dibbles, specifically designed to plant trees, will be available for use by volunteers, although volunteers are encouraged to bring their own if possible. The event will surely be cold so volunteers are reminded to dress warm.
If you would like to sign up to plant trees as a volunteer,
please contact Dan Huser of Limestone Valley RC&D Council at (423) 544-9076 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

To better understand and monitor their movements, 13 endangered Egyptian vultures have been tagged in Al Multaqah area, Oman in January 2018.
The program focuses on tagging vultures and eagles with tracking devices that allow detailed monitoring of their movements in order to investigate where these endangered species are breeding, feeding and migrating.
Since 2014, 17 Egyptian vultures and three eagles (two Steppe eagles and one Lesser Spotted eagle-Spotted eagle hybrid) have been fitted with tags.
This initiative is a collaboration between International Avian Research (IAR, led by Dr. Michael McGrady), the Bernd Meyburg Foundation for Raptor Research and Conservation (led by Prof. Bernd Meyburg who also holds the positions of Deputy Chairman of the Advisory Group for Ornithology and Bird Protection and Chairman of Raptor Working Group of BirdLife Germany (NABU)), and the Environment Society of Oman (ESO).
This initiative was launched in 2014, and aims to monitor the movements of scavenging, soaring raptors (e.g. Egyptian vultures and eagles) in Oman. Most vulture species and many species of eagle are in decline internationally, but recent research shows Oman to be a hotspot for them, holding important populations of both resident and migratory individuals. The project aims to develop a greater understanding of the movements and migration of the birds, and the habitats they use.
Dr. McGrady says, "So far our work has focused on Egyptian vultures, but we have also been tracking two Steppe eagles, a species that is also globally endangered. The focus in coming years may shift somewhat towards eagles because we are currently tracking a good number of vultures. However, trapping these species can be difficult, so we take what we can get. Trapping the hybrid spotted eagle was a pleasant surprise, and already the data are fascinating".
Of the four vultures tagged in previous years, two are known to have died, at least one by electrocution.
All four of those birds were young birds, and young birds typically do not survive as well as adults. However, the electrocution of one of the birds indicates that this threat, which is a major cause of mortality for many large birds (including endangered vultures and eagles) globally, is active in Oman.
Also, none of the four vultures tagged in previous years migrated. This may have been because they were resident birds and would not migrate, or they may not have migrated because they were not mature. Young vultures reared in northern areas migrate south to places like Oman in their first year, then dwell there for some years before returning when they are older. Because 12 of the vultures caught in 2018 are adults, we expect at least some of them to migrate this spring to breeding areas farther north. The eagles that we have tracked, on the other hand, have migrated to summering areas in Central Asia, and then back to winter in Arabia.
According to Professor Meyburg, "The Steppe Eagles tagged in January 2017 spent their summer in Central Asia, visiting countries such as Kazakhstan, Russia and Turkmenistan. They returned to the GCC area during the winter 2017-2018, and have settled in South East and Central Saudi Arabia. The tracking provides the first detailed information on the migratory behavior of Steppe Eagles that winter in Oman"
The results shed light on the importance of these raptors and their relationships to human activities such as waste management, electricity production and distribution. Oman appears to be a stronghold for these species, and as such can make important contributions to global conservation efforts. Although an International Multi-Species Action Plan has been developed to address the huge declines in vulture populations worldwide, Oman's status calls for the drafting of species' conservation plans (for both vultures and eagles) addressing research, conservation actions, threat assessment, education, community awareness and stakeholder engagement.
Maïa Sarrouf Willson, Research and Conservation Manager at ESO says, "Since the beginning, the project has received financial support from the International Avian Research (IAR) and the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association, satellite tags from Aquila Systems and Geotrak, and in-kind support from ESO, Arid Lands, and Hawk Mountain Sanctuary.
In the winter of 2017-18, 11 GPS tags were provided by the Bernd Meyburg Foundation for Raptor Research and Conservation andone by the Vulture Conservation Foundation through their "Vulture Baseline Data" project, funded by the MAVA Foundation. Dr. Paul Howey of Microwave Telemetry refurbished five of the transmitters that were deployed. Professor Meyburg has probably deployed tags on more individuals of more raptor species than anybody else in the world.
His involvement, both personally and through his Foundation, has been of huge benefit to the project. We were glad to see the participation of students from Sultan Qaboos University (SQU) in the tagging this time around, which reflects ESO's mission to spread environmental awareness and education. We aim to continue our efforts, in whichever way we can, to conserve the various raptor species in Oman, whether they be residents or migrants".

Cycle with e-bikes & mountainbikes around your STOCK resort in the Tyrol
Zillertal – a paradise for cyclists. Once discovered, enjoyed again and again.
Everything is just how you had imagined it: a healthy breakfast – just what you need for a sport-filled day in the Alps, the bike routes begin directly at the hotel and the STOCK cycling guides take you to the most beautiful viewing points and mountain huts. Metre by metre you will get noticeably closer to the sky, you will excel yourself and conquer the mountain on two wheels. Over 800 kms of cycle routes awaken the ambition of real sporting types and entice comfortable e-bikers into the wonderful heights. Once arrived on top, both drink to their success and look forward to the liberating downhill ride. You can borrow the right e-bikes and mountainbikes for this of course in your STOCK resort.
Discover the bike routes in the interactive map and allow yourself to be inspired by our Active Packages.
Mountainbikes in the Tyrol – fun & adventure at all ability levels
This holiday region meets all summer requirements. It does not matter whether you want a leisurely bike ride and would like to follow the 214 kms simple blue routes with the e-bike or whether you want to challenge yourself and would like to vanquish some of the 274 red route cycling kilometres or really go all-out and master the most impressive of the 336 kms of black cycle routes by mountainbike – the cycling Eldorado of the Zillertal will win you over with its inviting variety. Even more: in a total of 8 summer-running cable cars mountainbikers can transport their equipment conveniently and continually set themselves fresh starting points and targets when mountainbiking in the Tyrol before they enjoy the true highlights of the day: the peaceful ambience in the 5,000 m2 wellness & beauty landscape of our 5-star hotel. Tired cyclist-legs will be revived, gentle massaging will loosen the muscles and is an ideal preparation for taking a relaxed sauna in 11 saunas, or drift about in 12 pools and rest up in the authentic areas for retreating in the STOCK resort.

Stock is a versatile ingredient and essential to have on hand when cooking. I use it often—not only for making soup but when cooking a batch of rice, making risotto, cooking polenta, making stir-fries and on and on.
Stock is nothing more than water that's been infused with vegetables, bones and other flavors. Stock in a box is convenient but that convenience costs you a whole lot in terms of nutritional value and flavor. Please stop using that stuff. Making your own stock is one of the easiest things you can do to take your recipes to a whole new level.
We eat a lot of fresh vegetables and in times past, I'd save the scraps for compost. A while ago I stopped tossing those scraps into the compost pail and instead tossed them into a gallon size freezer bag and stored them in the freezer. Each time I had scraps, I'd collect them up and place them in that bag and then put the bag back in the freezer.
Once I had two bags full of frozen vegetable scraps, I pulled them out of the freezer, dropped them into a 10quart stockpot, filled the pot with water and placed it on the stove. I brought the broth to a boil, then lowered the heat to a simmer and let it simmer for about 3 hours. Then, I turned off the heat and let it cool. Once cooled, I strained out the vegetables using a fine mesh strainer, taking care to collect all the liquid by giving them a good pressing. When I was finished, I was left with 4 quarts of liquid gold. I tasted the onion and garlic, the ginger, the apple, the carrots and the herbs. It was amazing to me how pronounced their flavors were. You'd be hard pressed in trying to distinguish those flavors from commercially produced stocks. Oh, and after I removed the liquid from the scraps, I tossed them into the compost pile. You can keep your stock in the refrigerator for a few days or store it in the freezer for about 3 months.
My stock had bits, pieces and peelings of garlic, onion, carrot, green beans, organic celery, parsnip, organic apple peels (don't use the core), ginger, parsley and organic potatoes. I also threw in a couple of parmigiano-reggiano cheese rinds.
Try this yourself. Start saving all of those scraps. There are only two things to remember.
- Avoid vegetables from the brassica family – like broccoli, cabbage and turnips. They can create strong sulfur like flavors. Save those for when you are making brassica soups.
- Make sure you don't use any vegetables that have become spoiled.

Our Deluxe High-Pressure Digital Air Pumps are a incredible dual action, automatic, 12 volt pump developed in Australia. Designed to blowup inflatable boats, rafts, kayaks and iSUP boards with no effort at all. Just set the pressure gauge and press the ON Button. The pump will then inflate your boat to its correct pressure and stop automatically.
Our high-pressure Digital Gauge inflator pumps are adjustable from 2.2 PSI up to a maximum of 12 PSI. By delivering around 200 liters/minute, electric pump will inflate a typical 14' boat in about 8-10 minutes.
These pumps are not only excellent for quickly inflating boats and rafts, but also great for quickly filling inflatable high-pressure air deck floors and stand up paddle boards to up to 10-12psi air pressure. Without a high-pressure electric inflator, you'd have to use a hand pump for around 15-20 minutes, under the hot sun, which might not be your idea of fun. With this magic pump, you will be ready to roll in under 10 minutes with no effort at all.
All high-pressure air pumps now come equipped with a set of generic plastic adaptors designed to fit most of air valves on a market and specialized valve adaptor designed to fit Saturn's Naru valves. Choose correct adaptor that will fit nicely into air valve, and will press pushpin down when inserted for proper inflation. After inflation, when adaptor is removed, valve will lock automatically preventing air from escaping. You don't need any other valve adaptors besides those that already provided with our electric air pump. Using any other adaptors beside provided can burn pump pistons and will void its warranty.
When the pump starts it will be on a HIGH VOLUME (Turbine) pump until the pressure reaches 2-3 PSI. Then the pump will automatically switch over to the HIGH PRESSURE (Piston) pump and inflate the boat to its set pressure. You will hear sound of pump changing significantly when piston pump kicks in. Once reaching the set pressure the pump will automatically turn itself off.
I hear rumbling noises and small parts rocking inside the pump?
How do I know if pump with built-in internal battery has been fully charged?
Yellow hose connected to air output of pump become hot and let air escape.
Electric pump was stored in my car and now does not turn on. Why?
Pump switching to HP mode immediately after powering on. Why?
Where do I get replacement pump charger?
Do I have to remove pump from a pouch to turn it ON every time?
How to use specialized valve adaptor with Naru valves?

I had to run to IKEA. I needed a sheet for some quilt binding. Cheaper and more for my money than traditional binding.
|Got my binding and finished the quilt!
I made a few stops. I actually never made it to IKEA. Managed to find a sheet at a thrift store in great condition for cheap.
I also found where the Pyrex has been hiding. I found a bunch I already own. Like a snowflake divided, town and country divided.
But I did not have this guy (a 475). Actually the only reason I even collect Early America. Is because THM likes it and I will one day give him it all. I love my kid. I'm awesome.
Also scored a lid for free. The cashier thought it went with the EA. Yay!!!
Then I googled goodwill for the area I was in. Siri gave me directions. I pulled up and was like "hey I've been here before. Hey wait. I've peed at that Ace Hardware. They has seashells on the bathroom wall".
Oh the things we remember. I didn't find anything at first. Sorted by color it isn't an easy task looking for pyrex. I did grab these. All 8 of them.
A lady commented on them saying she remembered them. A little fun fact I learned a few years ago; in the 1970s during the gas shortage they were given out as a free gift when you got gas at mobile stations. My mom told me this. Pretty cool.
Last I stopped at a small goodwill right off the freeway. Again they sort their stuff by color. Ugg I hate that. I did however find a complete eyes carafe with warmer. A nice addition to my eyes set.

|The Walkable Locality - Encouraging walking
Walking is an inexpensive, efficient and healthy way to travel short distances, and to link up with mass transit in order to travel longer distances. In the right environment, walking can also be a very pleasant mode of transport, and cities that have good pedestrian facilities and high levels of walking are usually very pleasant places to live. In addition, walking produces no greenhouses gases and no local pollution, and it is not a danger to anyone else in the way that motorised transport can be.
|Traditional building materials and design
The use of traditional building materials and design is often found itself in a difficult situation, that is either being under the threat of perished under the force of modernisation or being innovatively implemented to meet modern building standards and living conditions. Traditional building materials and design have gained renewed attention in the green building movement, thanks to the use of locally accessible resources that address local conditions in a cost effective way.
|Traffic management
Proper traffic management can ensure that traffic flows smoothly and efficiently; there is fair access for different transport modes; roads and streets are safe for all users; roads full of motorised traffic do not constitute barriers blocking movement between areas; congestion, local pollution and noise are minimised; neighbourhoods, pedestrian areas and the overall character of localities are protected from the negative impact of high traffic levels; and greenhouse gas is reduced.
|Transit-oriented development
Transit-oriented Development (TOD) is a policy process that links land use to transit in order to make the most of the transit system. It is a major policy to reduce car dependence. Transit-oriented developments are the result of this policy; they generally have higher densities for residential and commercial activity, provide very pedestrian friendly environments and are closely connected to a quality public transport station. Parking is less available and is managed to reduce its negative impacts, and walking, cycling and transit use are encouraged.

I'm thinking about this article I read last month about homeless children in New York City. I've been thinking about it ever since I read it the first time. The article is about a homeless family living in a public shelter in NYC, and mostly focuses on the oldest child of the family, Dasani.
I went back and read some of the comments today, and the thing that struck me was that almost all the comments talk about the parents, and their choices, and about Dasani, and no one really talks about the conditions of the shelter described in the article — broken pipes, holes in walls, non-working toilets, the list went on and on.
I am appalled at these conditions and that human beings are expected to live in them. I don't understand how this building can fail inspection multiple times, and yet nothing is done. How can the people of New York City in good conscience allow this to go on?
It reminds me of an Ursula K. Le Guin story, about a city named Omelas. This city is perfect — the children are healthy, the climate is perfect, the adults all have fulfilling work to do, they have fun and colorful holidays where the parades are never rained on, they never argue, the houses are lovely and the pipes never break, in short it is the perfect place to live. How is this possible, you ask? Well, there is a catch. In a dank broom closet, a small child lives who never sees the light of day and never leaves the closet. He or she (it is not clear in the story) is fed just enough to stay alive, is not cleaned, and is left alone. Nothing can be done for this child, because if the child is fed and cleaned, then the perfection of Omelas will come to an end. The good of the many is weighed against the good of the one. The rite of passage to adulthood for the young people of Omelas is to be shown this child. All are horrified, some rant against the system, almost all go back into the sunshine to live their perfect lives. A few, a very few, walk out of Omelas, never to return. Are the homeless children of New York that poor child of Omelas?

The Unruly Wedding Show took place in Hackney on Sunday 29th October
Our modern rulebook-free take on wedding shows got off to a bang (literally) with Prosecco and donuts for the first 50 guests through the door, and from then on it was a jam packed day of workshops, demos, surprise entertainment and suppliers.
We absolutely loved creating the show and putting on a day for nearlyweds that was interactive and fun with a real laid back vibe. We think pictures speak a thousand words so here is a snippet of how the day took shape.
If you're interested in being a 2018 supplier or want to go on the mailing list for 2018 tickets you can email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or pop over to our Unruly page and enter your details in our contact form.

Welcome to NASFAA's Partners in Policy, an occasional series in which we profile colleagues at the associations, foundations, and think tanks that NASFAA works with to advance higher education and financial aid policies. In this installment, we profile David Hawkins and Michael Rose with the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC).
As more institutions are combining financial aid and admissions under the same enrollment management umbrella, the partnerships between financial aid administrators and admissions counselors continue to be vital to campuses and the students and families they serve, as well as in the world of higher education policy.
While financial aid administrators have NASFAA as a professional and advocacy resource, their campus partners in the admissions office have the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC).
Founded in 1937, NACAC serves more than 14,000 admissions professionals worldwide, including high school counselors and college admissions officers at public and private institutions. Through their advocacy efforts in Washington, D.C., NACAC has worked to maintain student access to quality counseling, need-based financial aid, and consumer protections, as well as rigorous curriculum to ensure that high school students are college ready.
Michael Rose, associate director of government relations, and David Hawkins, executive director of educational content and policy, are two members of NACAC's staff that work on these issues. Rose, who has been with the association for just over three years, represents NACAC in meetings with Congress, the White House, and other organizations. Hawkins, a 15-year veteran with NACAC, oversees the association's government relations work and initiatives related to research, education, and training.
Both Rose and Hawkins cite their passion for making a difference and helping students achieve their higher goals as a driver for the work they do.
"I sought out an advocacy job in education because I wanted to believe in what I do and, after working with our members and learning our issues, I can say I believe wholeheartedly in our work," Rose said.
"Whether it's our members, or the colleagues that I work with in partner organizations like NASFAA, I thoroughly enjoy working alongside people who are passionate about affording students the opportunity to blossom and find their way in the world," Hawkins said, adding that his commitment to his work hinges on the beliefs that all people can succeed with the right encouragement and support, regardless of their circumstances, and that education "pays in so many ways."
NACAC's policy priorities focus in part on improving access to higher education through better counseling and ensuring the availability of need-based aid.
Researching and applying for college "can be daunting even for the savviest of families," Hawkins said. "But if a student has access to counseling, some of the barriers to access can be reduced and students can make better decisions about where to attend."
Need-based financial aid, he added, is a priority "because no student should be denied a college degree because of cost, this is particularly true as budget cuts, economic difficulties, and tuition increases contribute to the financial barriers that students and families face."
Like many areas of higher education, admissions counseling and financial aid have a lot in common with regard to the challenges they face. In particular, Hawkins said, financial aid policy is an area of common ground for NACAC and NASFAA members, with both groups grappling with budget cuts, the need the for more and better financial aid counseling, and the need for state and federal policymakers to have a better understanding of the financial aid process and transitioning to college.
"As national organizations, we have a critical role in educating those who are making high-stakes decisions about our institutions and our professions," Hawkins said.
The need to provide students and families with accurate information about the cost of college and financial aid is also an area of overlap for aid administrators and admissions counselors. While admissions counselors are able to help families understand the "broad picture" of financial aid, it is important "that communications with financial aid administrators are open and clear to ensure that students receive accurate information," Rose said.
"Many times, the first question our admission officers are asked at NACAC's National College Fairs or in meetings with families is how much college will cost," Rose said. "Our organization and our members often look to [NASFAA] members because paying for college is such a nuanced issue and varies from family to family."
And as more institutions are combining the two departments to create a one-stop student services area on campus, there are likely to be more opportunities for cross-training and interaction between administrators from admission and financial aid. .
"We consistently hear feedback from admission and financial aid offices that they crave more interaction with and exposure to their respective professional fields," particularly for younger members of staff, Hawkins said. "NACAC and NASFAA can address that on a national level, but institutions can provide opportunities for new professionals to become more fluent in areas where they may not yet specialize."
So what can the higher education community expect from NACAC in the coming years?
According to Hawkins, the focus will be on "bolstering" need-based financial aid, ensuring college readiness counseling measures are in place to help improve access and success, and to help protect students and taxpayers from fraud, abuse, and waste "at the hands of unscrupulous institutions."
And in a larger sense, NACAC will continue to work to ensure that students have access to higher education regardless of their ability to pay, which was the original goal of the Higher Education Act of 1965. The association will also be working to bringing back the notion that higher education is a public good. Solving the barrier to higher education due to socio-economic difference "can and should be a top priority" over the next 10 plus years, Hawkins said.
"At risk of sounding like we're pining for days that are long gone, we often find ourselves lamenting the fact that the original policy goal of the Higher Education Act … has been distilled over time," Hawkins said. "Over the next 10 years, if state and federal governments do not take significant steps toward keeping pace with the demand for public higher education, our system, such as it is, threatens to become an entirely private enterprise."

At some point in their lives, 80 percent of the work force will suffer some form of back pain. It is the leading cause of work-related disability in the U.S., costing billions of dollars in lost productivity and high medical, insurance, and legal costs. For workers suffering from nonspecific low back pain (NLBP) that does not require medical attention, the American College of Physicians (ACP) and American Pain Society (APS) recommend a multidisciplinary approach to pain management that integrates cognitive, physical, and educational interventions. However, this type of program is not commonly available. There is a critical need to develop evidence-based multidisciplinary NLBP programs that can be widely disseminated and reduce the financial, physical, and emotional impact of NLBP on employers and employees. The proposed project will finish development and evaluate the effectiveness of a six-week web-based multidisciplinary program for workers suffering from NLBP that does not require medical treatment. The website will have tailored strands for four different job-types: a) desk job, inactive (i.e., Phase I;workers who are seated 50 percent or more of the day);b) non-desk job - inactive (i.e., cashiers or food service workers who usually stand while working, but are relatively inactive otherwise), c) non-desk job, active (i.e., active physical labor, such as construction workers), and d) truck and heavy equipment operators (i.e., individuals who work while seated and are subject to heavy vibration). In alignment with the ACP and APS guidelines, the program will include a Back Pain Assessment Tool to screen out individuals who require medical care and most likely do not have NLBP, provide evidence-based information on self-care options (e.g., heat and ice), provide information on the use of over-the-counter medication, and offer cognitive behavioral training to reduce psychosocial risk factors (e.g., fear and avoidance). The program will assist users in setting behavioral treatment goals and will help them schedule return visits. The program will incorporate video and animated tutorials, motivational peer testimonials, behavior modeling demonstrations, and informational articles. The Phase I prototype was assessed by a panel of experts, including physicians and members of APS, and was tested by an Internet sample of workers experiencing low back pain. Evaluation results indicated the program accurately developed appropriate educational approaches for case studies presented by the expert panel. Internet users were very satisfied with program content, functionality, and usability, and they showed significant gains in measures of knowledge, self-efficacy, attitude, and intentions. In Phase II, the complete program will be developed and evaluated in a randomized controlled trial with 300 workers diagnosed with NLBP. The evaluation will be conducted entirely online, across the United States.
Back pain, which afflicts 80 percent of adults at some point in their lives, is best treated with a multidisciplinary approach combining psychological, physical, and educational strategies. Unfortunately, workers who suffer nonspecific back pain that does not require medical care have few options. Doctors focus on patients with underlying conditions, and clinics offering multi-disciplinary care for back pain aren't readily available. In response, the proposed Internet program will provide worksite employees with a 6-week multidisciplinary intervention for self-treatment of back pain.

2016 - The Year Of The Project
I guess we could have also called the last 12 months The Year of Hey Let's Do This or The Year of Bumps, Bruises, Cuts & Calluses...
Late in the fall, we started tackling a number of "minor" projects that had been bugging us. When spring arrived early this year, in what is normally considered mid-winter, we opted to be productive and get them done. Needless to say, numerous minors added up to one major project. So much so that we even skipped our spring holiday in an effort to get everything done (can you believe it...).
While some finishing touches remain, and will probably take until the end of foliage season to complete, the vast majority of work is done. The completed list is as follows:
- Guest room hallways were updated with new molding, wainscoting and fresh paint.
- New flooring was installed in all guest bathroom.
- Every guest room was brightened up with a fresh coat of paint.
- The last two original (and well-worn...) bathtubs in the Taylor & Deere Rooms were replaced.
- Plumbing & temperature control for the baseboard heating system was optimized.
- The dining room was redecorated, including the installation of improved LED lighting.
- A new well pump, with state-of-the-art constant pressure/flow control, was installed.
- The lobby was given a facelift.
- Landscaping was completed on our adjacent property.
- The storage shed on our adjacent property received a fresh coat of paint.
- Hydrangeas were planted along the drive for added curb-appeal.
There were probably a few more minor items not included on the list, but you get the idea.
Phew...I'm tired and need a vacation, but not until after foliage season...
But while it lasts...

He said the foundation stone of IARI laid today, had the potential to impact the entire region in a positive way in the future. He said agriculture needs to be developed in line with the requirements of the 21st century. He added that farmers must benefit from the changing technology.
He stressed on the need of modern agriculture and technological interventions, keeping in mind the specific needs of the region.
The Prime Minister spoke of his vision of doubling farmers' incomes by 2022, the 75th anniversary of independence.
The Prime Minister said the Union Government had taken a number of steps for farmers' welfare in the last three years. In this context he mentioned the soil health cards, the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana, and the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana. He spoke of the vast network of soil health laboratories being set up across the country, and the popularity of the Fasal Bima Yojana among farmers.
The Prime Minister spoke of "Panch Tatva" - five elements to boost connectivity in the North-East: Railways, Highways, Airways, Waterways, and i-ways. He said his Government is working towards boosting prosperity and welfare of the people in the North-East through this "panch-tatva."
Speaking on the occasion, Shri Radha Mohan Singh, Agriculture Minister said the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modiji has pledged to double the farmers' income by 2022 and we are committed to fulfil his resolve. In continuation, visualising the potential of north eastern states in improving the production of agriculture and allied sectors and farmers knowledge enhancement, impart appropriate agriculture information, the top level of agricultural research and education in the country, a new branch of Indian agricultural Institute is being established in Assam. In these states of north-east we see special glimpses of diversity and due to the agroclimatic condition cultivation of not only different types of crops but diverse types of spices are being successfully carried out. Now we need to accelerate this further and in achieving this goal, establishment of the agricultural institute will be a decisive step. I would like to say that establishment of this institute will be an important initiative in enhancing agricultural production and productivity together with the high standard of education and research and in times to come it will definitely improve the living standard of farmers of north eastern states of the country.
Shri Singh said that to bring in another round of green revolution in the north-eastern parts of the country, the Prime Minister is laying the foundation stone of Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Assam, literally a replica of the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi.(Source: http://www.pmindia.gov.in and http://www.pib.nic.in)

Limestone Quarry Processing Plant
Limestone Quarrying Process
Limestone quarrying is a complex process, there are many limestone quarry equipment involved. The first step in quarrying is to gain access to the limestone deposit. This is processed by removing the overburden materials on the surface of the deposits. The overburden is then delivered to onsite storage for potential use in later reclamation of the site. Quarrying operations typically include drilling and cutting the stone out of the deposit, or by splitting the stone using hydraulic splitters.
Once the limestone bench is cut or split loose from the deposit, heavy equipment is used to lift the limestone bench and deliver it for grading, temporary storage, occasional preprocessing into slabs, and eventual shipment from the site. Limestone of low quality or size will be crushed for use in paving and construction applications, or stored for future site reclamation activities.

SCREEN_ [pronounced: screen space] is a email-based art "space" that produces quarterly artworks, sent/received via email.
Email often acts as a container or vehicle for disseminating images of art, but here it becomes an art object in its own right. Our inboxes already constitute private, unorthodox art viewing spaces; we encounter art related emails almost daily. But these emails are mostly cropped and reframed as press releases and show announcements. SCREEN_ looks to the history of Ray Johnson and Fluxus mail art as it seeks to create a distinct system of art dissemination and reception.
Each participating artist creates a unique artwork for each installment. Email recipients are asked to subscribe. This opt-in structure is meant to elicit an engaged audience and help the project avoid spam status.
Mailchimp is used as the project's platform. Mailchimp is the default art professional newsletter generator. This project encourages artists to hack the format, write their own code, ignore design standards and make something that is specific to the form.
SCREEN_ is organized by Ada Wright Potter.
