The top tier of torque wrenches.
The Effetto Mariposa Giustaforza II 10-60 Pro Torque Wrench is built in Italy and lives up to some high expectations. The Giustaforza II uses no batteries or electronics—the first to break in any tool. The Guistaforza II is unlocked by a knob located on the wrench end; once unlocked, set the desired torque value, push the knob back in to lock in place and away you go. When you reach the desired torque, the Guistaforza II delivers a confident 'CLICK' and provides three degrees of free movement in the handle. Set with a +/-4% tolerance, the Guistaforza II's precision is top-knotch, because when you're installing that ceramic bottom bracket on your expensive carbon machine the last thing you want is an inaccurate reading.

- Square 3/8-inch reversible ratcheting head
- +/-4% tolerance is guaranteed for 5000 cycles (5000 'CLICKS')
- Stainless steel body for years of reliable use

Taylor Dorman collapsed 20 minutes after being hit while playing over the line at Ramona High
A Ramona High School sophomore died Wednesday — his 16th birthday — just hours after he was struck in the chest by a softball during a morning physical education class.
The death of Taylor Dorman jolted students in the close-knit community, some who used social media to express their grief. About two-dozen friends held a candlelight vigil in front of the school Wednesday night.
"I never thought in a million years someone would die at the high school. Especially not someone in my p.e. class," Katie Scroggins posted on Facebook. "RIP Taylor Dorman. You will be missed by many."
Taylor was playing over-the-line with other students when he was hit by a batted ball about 11 a.m., Assistant Principal Kathryn Gunderson said. He initially showed no signs that he had suffered a catastrophic injury. He continued to play the game, and even made a joke to the student who had hit the ball, she said.
About 20 minutes later, after walking with a friend from one end of the school's football field to the other, he collapsed, she said.
The P.E. teacher called 911, and paramedics quickly arrived, school Superintendent Bob Graeff said. Taylor was stabilized and flown to Palomar Medical Center in Escondido, where he died a few hours later, Graeff said.

"We are very saddened by this news. ... Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends," school principal Tony Newman said.
Newman said counselors would be available Thursday.
At the vigil, Dorman's friends hugged each other and cried and released 16 birthday balloons. Candles formed a cross near a bouquet and a poster that friends were signing with remembrances.
Navar Findley, 15, said Taylor was his best friend. The two lived nearby and walked home from school together.
Navar said Taylor was "passionate about two things — surfing and video games." He loved a video game called League of Legends and would "spend summers on the water" surfing. He loved his dog, named Biggie Smalls, a large Chihuahua, and had a great sense of humor and was kind to everyone.
"He was never mean to anybody; totally the guy who walks up and cheers up your day. He's a jokester."
Ella Evans, 16, said she and Taylor had been friends since second grade in Ramona.
"He's just been like everyone's brother and best friend, caring and thoughtful. Just being around him was the best part. The way he'd flip his long hair."
Shay Huntsman, 16, a sophomore, said "he was funny, sweet. ... He loved to help everybody. He's like a big bear. Everyone loved to hug him."
Taylor played freshman football at the high school.
Over-the-line is played with a bat and ball. It's related to softball. Although rare, a ball striking a young person in chest leading to death has occurred in bat and ball games.
Youth deaths in baseball averaged two per year between 1996 and 2006, according to a 2012 article in the journal Pediatrics, the publication of the
Blunt impact to the chest was the most common reported cause of those deaths, and mainly affects players younger than 16, because their chest walls are more elastic and easily compressed, the article stated.
The impact to a specific spot on the chest, at a certain point in the heart rhythm, can cause sudden, irregular heartbeat, after a seemingly inconsequential blow, the article states.

Challenge Ismaki - 16
This is the first time I've taken part in a challenge like this, so please forgive me if it's not right!
I've used Rusty Pickle papers, these are double sided, so it was easy to get four that correspond.
The large scull is by Tim Holtz. It's with the unmounted set with the birds. I really liked the birds, which is why I bought the set. I thought that the scull was the duff one that I would never use, but it's the one I've used first and I love it!!
I stamped onto yellow crackle paint into which I had rubbed spiced marmalade distress ink. I find this paint much easier to get on with than the distress embossing powder - that image ended up in the bin :o(
The sentiment and shrink plastic bits and bobs are Tanda Stamps.
I also got a bit carried away with my favourite toy, my white paint pen.
I really enjoyed making this, and like all of my cards lately I've got a home for it to go to straight away.
I liked this challenge so much I decided to do it all over again!!
This one is made from K & Co Margo papers which are soooo lovely, very sparkely. The image is my one and only Tilda stamp. I do like her but don't feel the need to buy every one in the set (no hate mail please lol)
I edged the card in embossable tape glue, and glitz'd it up with tinsel embossing powder.
All the embellishments are K & Co - I think I got 'em as a set from QVC a couple of months ago. The wording is done using my Cuttlebug - I never though I'd get a die cutting machine, but I wouldn't be without my bug now.
It isn't much of a sentiment, but as it's my Grandma's 94th birthday next week I hope it's allowed.
Thanks so much for the challenge, hope to take part again next week.

This week we reviewed mass, volume, and density, and also began discussing the idea of conductors of heat. (We'll talk more about conductors when we get to circuits.) The students went through rotations covering each topic.
Rotation #1 was a can of Coke and a can of Diet Coke, and the students placed them in a tub of water to measure distance each sank. The regular coke sank to the bottom, while the Diet Coke did not. This lead to a discussion about the mass of sugar versus the mass of artificial sweetener, and their relative densities. I brought in a sample of each so that the students could feel the difference in mass. It a BIG difference!
Rotation #2 included a wooden spoon, a plastic spoon, a rubber spoon, and a metal spoon. The students predicted which spoon(s) would be good conductors of heat, then we put the spoons in hot water for 1 minute. We took the spoons out and timed how long it took for a small piece of butter to begin melting when placed on the spoon. We quickly noticed the metal was by far the best conductor.
Rotation #3 was about predicting and measuring the volumes of different liquids.
Rotation #4 included measuring the mass of many different objects using a triple beam balance.

You need to read about triggers. Truggers ae procedures that fire when something is done with an associated table — like insert, update, or delete. You are prsented the state of the data at the time (in the case of updaes — both before and after) so it easy to make such an audit trail. tSQL stored procedures can reach other databases on the same server easily. And, tables in databases on other servers by linking the servers. The only consideration is that you need to be certain your code will not fail (because it is unexpected in the normal users code) and that it does take a lot of time — poorly written triggers can cause serious delays in bulk insets and updates… There are many sources of free information about triggers in tSQL. You might want to start with a Google search…
Although the above answer mentions t-Sql and the question is about Oracle, the trigger concept is the same, but if you want to log changes to schema objects (and not DML operations to specific objects like inserts/deletes/updates), you should look at DDL triggers, which can be created at the database level or the schema level.
As for writing this data to a remote server, you would have to create a database link (if the data is going to be stored in a database). Making this inaccessible to the DBA is a matter of privileges/permissions (which are usually managed by the DBA…).

Night Fishing Trout Michigan Style
A major part of Michigan brown trout fishing lore concerns a great night hatch, a hatch that brings out grandpa's fish from the twisted log jam by the cabin. You know, the fish he had wars with over the years, waders full of water, a lost hat and a six beer hike up the hill dragging a perfectly broken 6wt rod. It's telling stories like these while the snow is blowing sideways, drinking scotch and smoking cigars in the garage, that symbolize hex fishing in the Midwest.
Long after the big Hex rush is over and all the car doors slam shut at the access points the good old boys fire up their pick-ups, uncap the Jim Beam and get ready for the true night experience. For years the die hard fly fisherman waited until the dead of night to pull some of the true giants out of the real-estate. I am one of them.
Learning the Signs
A sure sign that the night bite will be productive is when the chubs and small brook trout are active in your favorite brown trout water. Let's face it the chubs are in the river all year round, they just don't show up all of the sudden in July. They are not a factor when the larger browns are ready to eat them.
The presence of fire flies are another sign to get out to the river and fish at night. A third tell-tale sign is water temperature when the water reaches its warmest day time surface temps of the year it is time to get on the night bite.
Most of the mid-July daytime fishing is based on hail mary hope to get a good one while using a hopper. Don't get me wrong many anglers have caught many good fish using this approach.
The Night Bite
To maximize success, fish when the fish are most active, and browns are active at night. Peak night time activity tends to be time related with the hex hatch even though it may be weeks past. The 10pm to 1.45am bite is almost always good. Providing that the moon is less than half full. When the moon is full the bite may occur earlier, for the simple fact that when the moon reaches the treetops the river will be lit up like Tiger Stadium. If the only time you get to fish is during a full moon, then tell the wife you will be home early, plan to get out right at dark. Fish efficiently, not too fast and don't be afraid to pull the plug early if the bite is slow. If it's a low light night, it could be a late night!
For some reason when I mention night fishing to people, they relate the fishing to the fast paced game of tossing steamers. In fact the night bite is the opposite. Fish often move off cover when they feed at night. The deep heavy pools that can hold fish during the peak streamer bite don't seem to have the same potency when fishing the night bite.
Look to the inside bends of rivers that have some cover or the top end of riffles. Not the broken water. Soft flowing water fishes twice as good as the busted up stuff. Pick sections of river that are moderately paced with lots of cover. Re-program your strategy to be successful.
At night concentrate on areas that are opposite of those that one would fish with streamers. For example: shallow water, inside bends, sandy stretches, extreme top ends of pools are all prime night locations for trout. Use a slow retrieve, moderate strips in the 3-4 inch pulls and don't be afraid to add a period of dead drift into this presentation.
What not to do
In order to be successful at night fishing let us first talk a little about some of the major no no's. Be careful not to let too much slack line get in the way of a positive hook up. Do not strike on the explosion of the fish. Strip setting the hook is the only way to go.
If you swing the rod in an effort to hook the fish, while pulling mice, you will wind up like one of those guys who think that the fish was short striking the fly. Browns will make many attempts at their prey, and I believe strongly that it is more of an attempt to get an angle on, and stun large top water food sources.
Stand your ground. I have had fish make 10 or more attempts at the fly before catching them with less than 3 feet of line out. By using a strip set, the fly remains in the water, not in the tree behind you. The brown trout can then have another shot at your fly. The most important part of the program is keeping the fly waking slowly with intermittent pauses.
Contrary to popular belief it is rare for it to be pitch black at night. Check the level of wake and your overall presentation in an area of ambient light. Cast the fly cross current. The first few strips of line will be greater than the following strips in order to pick up the slack line. Than proceed to make slow 4 inch strips with pauses to make the fly appear as though it is loosing ground or being forced by the current. You can catch fish on the swing if your only option is wading but not many mice swim up river and I truly feel a cross current presentation works better.
Big Brown Trout - Use the right gear
Real men fish rope! Without heavy line and heavy rods you can't navigate the fish away from the real-estate. If you get wrapped up in the excitement of what happened and try to fight the fish there is a good chance you will loose, pull that sucker in!
How heavy of line? It's midnight and the browns don't care. You won't catch me ever running less than 1x leader. I would even go as far to say pound test, ten, twelve and fifteen, get my drift? Length short, I'll say it again short, less than five feet.
Fly lines have come light years haven't they? Bass lines, wind cutters, and my new favorite the glow lines. I know what your thinking, and no they don't spook fish. I would not recommend a sinking like of any type at night, you just loose too much gear. But us fly shop owners could always use the support, so go ahead if you must. Skip the five weight daytime rod. Use a six or a seven weight rod when tossing flies like deer hair frogs, mice and poppers at night. They work awesome.
Big waking flies - What to use
If you tie flies use lots of foam, hair and Softex. The best fly that one can tie for night browns is a Softex Mouse. I have caught countless fish on this little monster of rock and roll. Old reliable patterns work as good as ever such as big Atlantic salmon bombers, and a trusty Houghton Lake Special. These flies still burn up the waterway. Sculpins and leech patterns can be effective as well but be prepared to loose some gear if they are weighted.
Lesser known night activities include stoneflies and dobson flies and moths. Make sure to have stoneflies in your arsenal. Big ones size 4 and greater. Many stoneflies can hatch at night around these parts. When those big choppers start falling out of the midnight sky it can be as good if not better than the hex. It is just a shorter window of opportunity and I can grantee that you won't have to worry about someone being in your spot.
When fishing at night it is important to follow some basic safety precautions to avoid getting in trouble. Carry an extra light. Tell somebody where you are fishing. Know your river and your take out spot. Use good wading sense, better safe than wet! Night fishing can be one of the more rewarding fishing experiences of the year. The size of the fish and the thrill of taking large trout on bass style flies is awesome!

Cost of Carbon
role: pitch, creative direction, UX, programming
Al Gore's Climate Reality Project asked Modern Assembly to design and develop the social media campaign for their 24 Hours Of Reality Event. So we designed & developed a realtime, user-generated data visualization of the world's Cost of Carbon.
We worked with scientists at the Climate Reality project to scour academic resources around the world. Eventually, we found a partner in the UK-based think tank, Maplecroft, who provided us with an API to the world's most comprehensive database of climate change related risks.

Sixteen people, including three police officers, were killed in some of the city's poorest neighbourhoods.
On Monday the state authorities announced that 850 officers would be sent out to target drug gangs.
Known as Operation Maximum Pressure, this uncompromising style of policing was first launched in November.
It was then suspended during last month's Carnival.
It involves teams of armed police officers launching surprise raids in Rio's shantytowns, or favelas, with the aim of arresting alleged drug dealers.
The policy has been revived following one of the most violent weekends in recent memory.
Police killed
The 16 people killed included three police officers. Two were shot while on patrol.
The other was killed in a bar in front of his wife.
Human rights groups have warned that the new tactics will only fuel mistrust between the police and local communities.
Last year, officers killed more than 1,000 people in the state of Rio de Janeiro.
Often they have been accused of shooting first and asking questions later.
But the state government says Operation Maximum Pressure has achieved results.
In the three months from November it produced nearly 600 arrests. During the same period officers seized 400 illegal guns.

The town of Lake Clarke Shores was incorporated on July 4, 1957, reportedly to avoid annexation by West Palm Beach. The lake had been named decades earlier, for John S. Clarke, a Pennsylvania businessman and the son of Palm Beach pioneer Charles John Clarke.
In the 1890s in Palm Beach, men fished for sharks with rope, large bait and a gun for safety once the shark was hauled to shore. Among the men pictured is gun-toting John Clarke, one of Palm Beach's early pioneers. Clarke's niece was Winifred Clarke Anthony, a part-time Palm Beach resident during her childhood and then a full-time resident and charity activist from 1929 until her death at age 95 in 1988, when she lived in the eight-room Cape Cod-style home her father built in 1902. Her father, Louis Semple Clarke, the inventor of the first gear-driven automobile, among other things, took this photo after helping to catch the mammoth fish. In 1911, on the porch of the Clarke family's Palm Beach home, the town's charter was signed. (Palm Beach Daily News file photo)

About Conference
After the splendid success of the "2nd International Conference on Transcriptomics" held at Philadelphia, USA during September 12-14, 2016 we proudly announce the "3rd International Conference on Transcriptomics" which will be held during October 30-November 01, 2017 at Bangkok, Thailand.
Transcriptomics is a cross-disciplinary area mainly concerned with transcriptome analysis and RNA-Seq. It emphasizes on how the next generation sequencing is replacing microarrays as the choice method for expression profiling and quantify overall gene expression level. Transcriptomics 2016 revolves around the theme "Transcriptomics: Exploring pathways toward novel research" which is all about simplifying the complex phenomenon behind transcription & protein expression, the ability to get an overall picture of disease transcriptomes & how it provides a clear understanding of the underlying genome which is converted into the functional proteins, patient classification, diagnosis, and individualized treatment.
Why to attend?
Transcriptomics research provides a profitable business opportunity to several pharmaceutical and biotech companies as these technologies have wide application areas such as drug discovery and research followed by clinical diagnosis of various disorders. With the arrival of advanced technological platforms, it creates a need for effective bioinformatics tools and services in order to manage and analyse huge amount of data released from these technologies. With this view, the scientific sessions for the conference have been designed which paves a way to gather visionaries through the research talks and presentations and put forward many thought provoking information and therapeutic techniques related to Transcriptomics. Thus, it's a great opportunity to concrete your ideas and meet the experts from across the world.
Transcriptomics-2017 mainly focusses on the universities, institutes, research centres and major societies along with companies which hold a big market in transcriptome technologies. Target audience invloves students, faculties, researchers, scientists, dean, directors and CEO's of the companies.
We welcome all interested participants to join us for our conference on Transcriptomics at the exquisite destination of Bangkok.
Our Conference will provide a perfect platform addressing:

Roy Sekoff appeared on "The Ed Show" Thursday to discuss the Tea Party's response to the tragic shootings in Tucson last weekend.
When host Ed Schultz referenced a statement from Tucson's Tea Party leader, which suggested Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords should have been more prepared for the attack by bringing security to her event, Sekoff replied, "The one-word response is wince."
"What we've seen from the Tea Party and Sarah Palin is that they excel at playing the victim," Sekoff said. "The danger there is that since they feel so victimized, they're just going to get louder, and they're going to ratchet it out, and they're going to make more outrageous comments like we've seen right there."
Sekoff explained that the popularity of the Tea Party movement exemplifies the divide between traditional conservative values and the radical right currently at work within the Republican party. "This really speaks to the identity crisis the GOP is facing right now," he said.
Sekoff continued, "The energy and the dynamism is really with the Tea Party, but so is all the crazy and the outrage. And that's where the danger lies."

Hi Mamas,
I have a 14 month old firecracker! She is a bright, fun and goofy kid that makes me laugh every day. As I am starting to use "no" and divert her away from things she shouldn't be playing with, she is starting to have little meltdowns — crying, screaming, doubling over. This has only happened twice but I want to make sure I react appropriately. Is it bad to ignore her when she is crying so hard? Please advise so I can curb this behavior before it happens more often.
Thanks, Worried Mom
Dear Worried,
First of all, thanks for your great question. It's clear to me that you are already on the right track and sensing the correct way to go. You just need a little confidence, a little clarification about what's going on, and a few tips to help you keep moving in the right direction.
To make it as clear as possible, lets break it down like this:
What: Yep, it's a tantrum. Kicking, screaming, crying, and whining are the most common behaviors seen but for no extra charge you can also get hitting, throwing themselves on the ground, and breath-holding, too.
Who: Girls and boys between the ages of 1 and 3.
Where: Anywhere!
When: Any time is possible but they can go to the dark side fast when they are overtired, hungry, FRUSTRATED, looking for attention or wanting some independence or control of their world.
Why: Because kids this age don't have much say about their environment; want what they want when they want it; can't communicate their wishes; don't get the whole concept of sharing; don't tolerate being sleep-deprived or hungry very well and have a really hard time with the idea of "no."
You described the behavior perfectly and gave hints as to what's setting her off — saying no and taking things that she shouldn't have away. Imagine that you are waiting for a table in a fancy cafe in Paris– jet-lagged, starving, and dying to order a delectable Parisian feast like the one you read about in your Frommer's Guide. But you don't have it with you, you don't speak French and the waiters don't know what you're talking about. And they are ignoring you, and just seated someone else in the table you wanted. Aaarrgghhh!
This situation is likely to set off a grown-up temper tantrum and we all know what that feels like. But we can walk out of the restaurant, make another choice, find someone who speaks our language or give up, go take a nap and come back again later.
Not so for the two-year-old. So, the best thing to do is to try and avoid those tantrums or be prepared to nip them in the bud the minute they start.
First of all, make sure you are covering the basics:
- stick to the sleep schedule like it's part of your religion (naps and bedtime)
- put away fragile or breakable items that you don't want her to touch until she's a little older. Try to arrange your home so you're not constantly having to say no.
- make sure she eats good stuff at regular times.
- let her make plenty of choices but only when they don't matter or when you are in charge of what they are, like "Want to climb into your car seat all by yourself or want mommy to put you in?"
- give her lots of attention when she is behaving well… all kids thrive on "watch me!"
- make sure she has enough things to do and play with that are age appropriate and not too much for her to handle — this cuts down on frustration.
- get good at distracting her when she's going for something she wants and can't have.
But even the most conscientious moms are not going to prevent all of the tantrums all of the time. And try as I might, I can't give you a precise prescription for handling a tantrum in progress because so much depends on the specifics of the situation.
But there are a variety of things you can try based on your child's age, history and what's happening. The main thing is that you don't want to reinforce the unacceptable behavior by giving in or making too much of a fuss over it. And obviously it's never a good idea to spank or hit a child when they are acting out. It's hard to convince them that hitting is bad if you're providing excellent pointers on exactly how to do it.
Regardless of the situation, try your best to STAY CALM and to figure out what's going on. Remember that over-reacting will just rile things up more.
If you see what the problem is and can intervene at that point, great! If she's really out of control you may have to take her out of the room and explain that hitting, or screaming or whatever she is doing is not okay and that she needs to stop it and calm down. Distraction at that point may work.
Or, if she's melting down in a place where you feel comfortable and she won't stop whining after you've tried to redirect her attention you can try ignoring it, as long as she isn't hurting herself or anyone else. If you're at home and she doesn't stop, you can calmly put her in her room for a couple of minutes and explain to her that she needs to settle down.
Later when the storm has passed, rock or cuddle with her a little. It's scary for little ones when they get out-of-control like that and they need reassurance that you still love them. Tell her that you know she was really mad before and ask her what that felt like. Then explain, quietly and sweetly, that in your family you don't hit, scream etc. when you get angry and give her ideas about what she can do next time she feels that way (like using her words and saying "I'M MAD," for example).
Of course you're not going to have a two hour seminar on anger management with a 14 month-old, but you get the picture. You can at least start the conversation about what behaviors are and are not okay when we're frustrated or angry. And then be consistent about not allowing them.
You'll have to hone your interventions a bit depending on exactly what 's going on and how old she is. But I'm sure you get the main idea. In the meantime though, I know it's tough on everyone. Hang in there — this too shall pass.

I think the only people who should schedule for this time of year should be ice makers and deodorant conferences.
The candid remark made to me was "Its not as big as last year", which is a sad statement because to me it was looking at the glass half empty. Last year Nextcomm was in the south hall of vegas, and i think they would kill to have the floor space this event had.
Additionally, I was there becuase of the Samsung, Radvision announcement that is definitely aimed at being a game changer. $2000 for a video conferencing terminal pushes the video out of the executive board room and to the halls of the company.
That's also the goal, Samsung has in mind and its very well positioned to succeed. Samsung had another of cool solutions displayed and many of them would integrate well with the Radvision stack.
Radvision to their time demoing to me the presence engine and the opportunity for improved interoperabilty.
Likewise, Magor was demoing their offices by actually looking like two offices talking. It was a very nice demo and showed well when walking buy it.
A few of the others were into these elaborate desks strategies, To me they are meant to impress the user who is an outsider, but the problem is these systems are internal.
We have a ways to go, but thanks to the magor Mitel / samsung and radvision deal we are gaining some momentum.

Last night, Phil Klein at the DC Examiner pointed out that come the next round of spending cuts, the tenative debt deal now before Congress will set the GOP:
No doubt, we'll start to see more and more opposition from conservative defense hawks to slashing the military budget, while the Norquist crowd will continue to push Republicans to accept more defense cuts to avoid any increase in taxes.
This is likely to be the opening of significant debate among conservatives that will likely continue for decades to come, given the increasing pressure posed by entitlements.
I think this is right. But I also think it's true of the Democrats: they are going to face unprecedented conflicts between their constituencies in the decades to come. Fundamentally, we're bumping up against the willingness of the American public to pay more taxes, or accept spending cuts. Some constituencies are going to lose. Republicans are going to have to decide whether they'd rather have lower taxes, or a stronger military. And Democrats are going to have to decide who they care about more: old people, or poor people.

I want to be an active Tea Time member, but there is no chapter in my area.
That's okay — The world is a much larger place than our immediate surroundings, and thanks to the magic of the internet, it's largely right at our fingertips! We would hate for you to be a victim of circumstance, so being an active participant on our forums and other social media outlets counts towards your 'active membership' status. Alternatively, starting your own chapter looks great on an application. /hint
Do I have to spend my scholarship money on something specific like books or supplies?
While that is the recommended use of your future hard-won scholarship money, we understand that the struggle can be real — sometimes you've got more than enough charcoal and not enough groceries. The scholarship is intended to take some of the stress that is post-secondary education off of the recipient, so that they can focus on landing on two feet into a career they are happy about. If that means a new toolbox to hold all your sketching supplies? Amazing. New Wacom tablet? Fantastic! If that means having an exorbitant night off to take your mind away from impending finals? Well…I'm not really sure that's the most ideal use of this grant, but buy me a beer and we'll call it even.
That's it for the FAQ right now! More questions? Please contact us.

The shelter's needs change frequently and we are unable to store donated items until a need arises. We encourage you to contact the shelters directly if you have something you believe someone could use.
In addition to our shelters, there are local organizations that accept (and pick up in some cases) donations.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
For questions about immigration procedures, call the National Customer Service Center (NCSC)
Adoption laws vary among countries. A child must qualify for adoption under the laws of his or her country of origin in order to be adopted. Each country has different requirements for children to be eligible for adoption. You can learn more about specific countries' eligibility requirements for children in our Country Information pages.
Additionally, children being adopted abroad must be found eligible to immigrate under the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) in order to reside in the United States. Because adoption laws vary from country to country, it is possible to adopt a child abroad who does not qualify for immigration under U.S. law; such children cannot immigrate to the United States.
The federal agency responsible for determining whether a child is eligible to immigrate to the United States in accordance with the INA is U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). U.S. law sets different eligibility requirements for adopted children living in Hague Adoption Convention countries (view country list) and those living in non-Convention countries. Children in Convention countries must meet the INA definition of a Convention adoptee; children in non-Convention countries must meet the INA definition of an orphan.
Convention Adoptees (Convention Countries)
Children being adopted from a Convention country must qualify as a Convention adoptee in order to immigrate to the United States. USCIS determines whether a particular child meets the definition of a Convention adoptee. To apply to USCIS for this determination, you use the following form:
· I-800 – Petition to Classify Convention Adoptee as an Immediate Relative
· I-800 application instructions
Form I-800 and the required supporting documents are required for USCIS to determine that a child is eligible for classification as a Convention adoptee. In order to file From I-800 with USCIS, you must have an approved, valid Form I-800A (Application for Determination of Suitability to Adopt a Child from a Convention Country). See our eligibility requirements for prospective adoptive parents for more information about filing Form I-800A.
There are five primary elements to the Convention adoptee classification. In addition to other applicable requirements, all of the following must be true for a child to be eligible for the Convention adoptee classification:
1. The child is under the age of 16 at the time the I-800 is filed on his or her behalf (taking into account special rules on filing dates for children aged 15-16), is unmarried, and lives in a Convention country;
2. The child will be adopted by a married U.S. citizen and spouse jointly, or by an unmarried U.S. citizen at least 25 years of age, habitually resident in the United States, whom USCIS has found suitable and eligible to adopt (Form I-800A approval) with the intent of creating a legal parent-child relationship.
3. The child's birth parents (or parent if the child has a sole or surviving parent), or other legal custodian, individuals, or entities whose consent is necessary for adoption, freely gave their written irrevocable consent to the termination of their legal relationship with the child and to the child's emigration and adoption;
4. If the child has two living birthparents who were the last legal custodians who signed the irrevocable consent to adoption, they are determined to be incapable of providing proper care for the child; and
5. The child has been adopted or will be adopted in the United States or in the Convention country in accordance with the rules and procedures elaborated in the Hague Adoption Convention and the Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000 (IAA), including that accredited adoption service providers were used when required, and there is no indication of improper inducement, fraud, misrepresentation, or prohibited contact associated with the case.
Orphan Status (Non-Convention Countries)
Children being adopted from non-Convention countries must meet the definition of an orphan as defined in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) before they can immigrate to the United States. USCIS determines whether a particular child meets the definition of an orphan. To apply to USCIS for this determination, you use the following form:
· I-600 – Petition to Classify Orphan as an Immediate Relative
· I-600 application instructions
Form I-600, along with its supporting documents, are required for USCIS to determine that a child is eligible for classification as an orphan. In order to file Form I-600 with USCIS, you should submit Form I-600A (Application for Advance Processing of Orphan Petition) first. You may submit both forms at the same time, or you may already have an approved, valid Form I-600A when you file Form I-600. See our eligibility requirements for prospective adoptive parents for more information about filing Form I-600A.
According to the INA, a child must meet the following two conditions in order to be considered an orphan:
1. The child must have no parents; or
2. The child has a sole or surviving parent who is unable to care for the child and has, in writing, irrevocably released the child for emigration and adoption.
In some countries it is possible to adopt a child who is not an "orphan" as defined by U.S. immigration law. Whether a child qualifies as an orphan for the U.S. is determined by reference to U.S. laws and regulations, and not by foreign law that may identify a child as orphaned. In general, a child would be considered to have no parents if both are determined to have died, disappeared, deserted, abandoned or have been lost or separated from the child. Abandonment requires that the birth parents give up all parental rights, obligations and claims to the child, as well as all control over and possession of the child (without transferring these rights to any specific person). Under U.S. law, children may not be abandoned, relinquished, or released to a specific prospective adoptive parent for adoption.
There are three primary elements to the orphan classification. In addition to other applicable requirements, all of the following must be true for a child to be eligible for the orphan classification:
· The child must be under the age of 16 at the time an I-600 petition is filed on his or her behalf with USCIS or a consular officer (a child adopted at age 16 or 17 will also qualify, provided he or she is a birth sibling of a child adopted, or who will be adopted, under the age of 16 by the same adopting parents).
· The adopting parents must have completed a full and final adoption of the child or must have legal custody of the child for purposes of emigration and adoption in the U.S.; and
· The child has been or will be adopted by a married U.S. citizen and spouse jointly, or by an unmarried U.S. citizen at least 25 years of age, with the intent of forming a bona fide parent/child relationship.
If an I-600A has already been approved, the adopting parent may file an I-600 for one child without any additional fee. However, if parents are adopting two or more biologically unrelated children, there will be a $670.00 fee for the second child (this fee is waived for siblings).
The following documentation must be presented in order for an I-600 petition to be approved:
Form I-600, Petition to Classify Orphan as an Immediate Relative;
The child's birth certificate;
A final decree of adoption, if the orphan has been adopted abroad, or proof of legal custody for purposes of emigration and adoption;
Proof of "orphan" status per definition above (e.g., evidence of abandonment, written relinquishment, death certificates, etc. depending on the circumstances);
Proof that the pre-adoption requirements, if any, of the state of the orphan's proposed residence have been met, if the orphan is to be adopted in the United States;
Proof that the adopting parents have seen the child prior to or during adoption proceedings.
IMPORTANT: Parents are urged to seek advice about the possibility that an adopted child might not be considered an orphan and therefore would not be able to accompany his or her adopting parents to the United States. Immigration attorneys, reputable adoption agencies involved in international adoption, USCIS, and Department of State officials all have information that will assist you in addressing this serious concern.
Children in Conflict Areas or Natural Disasters
The Department of State receives inquiries from American citizens concerned about the plight of children in war zones and in countries afflicted by natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes and tsunamis. Our office shares this concern for children in conflict areas and we understand that some Americans want to respond by offering to open their homes and adopting these children in need.
It can be extremely difficult in such circumstances to determine whether children who appear to be orphans truly are eligible for adoption. Children may be temporarily separated from their parents or other family members during a conflict or natural disaster, and their parents may be looking for them. It is not uncommon in a hostile situation for parents to send their children out of the area, or for families to become separated during an evacuation. Even when it can be demonstrated that children are indeed orphaned or abandoned, they are often taken in by other relatives.
During times of crisis, it can also be exceptionally difficult to fulfill the legal requirements for adoption of both the U.S. and the child's country of origin. This is especially true when civil authority breaks down. It can also be very difficult to gather documents necessary to fulfill the legal requirements of U.S. immigration law. There are still ways in which U.S. citizens can help the children in areas of conflict or natural disaster. For example, individuals who wish to assist can make a financial contribution to an established NGO working in that country.

I BET YOU HAVE A FRIEND or two who went through a Lasik surgery, tossed his glasses and never looked back. Lasik eye surgeries are immensely popular and the procedures themselves often don't even require a hospital setting. Lasik (it's actually an abbreviation: LASIK stands for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) is no brain surgery - and that's good news for you, because you won't have to spend decades honing your surgery skills, but you will have to splurge for a state-of-the-art Excimer laser machine, which will do the actual remodeling of the cornea part of the eye.
Ask your friend how much he spent on his Lasik surgery, multiply it by the number of people in glasses around you and start calculating your profits.

i don't want oprah a lot.. probably because i was always working while she was on. but whenever i did watch her show, i liked it.
i'll admit it.. i LIKE oprah. :)
so i watched her very final show yesterday.. not having any idea what it was going to be about, who was going to be on it, etc.
to my surprise, there were no guests.
just oprah. talking. thanking. being grateful.
but what i took from her show- was what i've been talking about for awhile now here on this blog. and a lot of what i've reading lately in terms of spiritual websites.
this huge shift in consciousness. this shift in people's priorities. this calling that is happening to get people to be where they are supposed to be (hence, dramatic events happening- loss of house, loss of job, divorce, etc)....
when she spoke the following words, i found myself sitting on my couch shaking my head back and forth in a YES!!!! motion, just completely agreeing and yelling at my tv, "THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT OPRAH!!!! THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO SAY!!!"
"What I knew for sure from this experience with you is that we are all called. Everybody has a calling, and your real job in life is to figure out what that is and get about the business of doing it. Every time we have seen a person on this stage who is a success in their life, they spoke of the job, and they spoke of the juice that they receive from doing what they knew they were meant to be doing.... Because that is what a calling is. It lights you up and it lets you know that you are exactly where you're supposed to be, doing exactly what you're supposed to be doing. And that is what I want for all of you and hope that you will take from this show. To live from the heart of yourself. You have to make a living; I understand that. But you also have to know what sparks the light in you so that you, in your own way, can illuminate the world."
just reading that (especially the last sentence) brings tears to my fucking eyes. it fills me with hope. it RESONATES. that's exactly where i am right now. and where i have been. and what i've been trying to figure out... and CREATE.
i feel like we're all being called to do what truly makes us happy. and by doing what makes us happy, we will affect the world. by sharing what we love with others, it will uplift those around us. goodness and positivity ALL AROUND! :)
you may think i'm crazy.. or not get what i'm saying. and that's okay. i just feel excited. and happy. and sort of impatient because i'm so ready to embody my awesomeness and have it feel right... i'm ready to FEEL like i'm on the right path again- like i'm doing what i'm supposed to be doing... like i'm where i'm supposed to be... like everything in falling into place. that feeling you get when you just instinctively know things are unfolding how they are supposed too. i'm ready for all of that.
for me.
and for you.
"My great wish for all of you who have allowed me to honor my calling through this show is that you carry whatever you're supposed to be doing, carry that forward and don't waste any more time. Start embracing the life that is calling you and use your life to serve the world."

I have been searching for my calling as well so I can say that this "talk" could not have come at a better time...good luck to you and all those out there searching...

Vision and values
Our Holycroft School Vision is both a reflection of what we already do and what we are building on.
It is what we are all committed to in order to meet the evolving needs of the school on our journey from good to outstanding. This Vision incorporates the voices of children, parents, staff, governors and the wider community; our Holycroft family of which we are all very proud.
The Leadership of the school, including the governors, will ensure that every child 'gets the best deal' through rigorous, regular monitoring and evaluation of standards and provision. We expect all children to make significant progress over time thus closing any learning gaps.
We aim for all teachers and associate staff to be outstanding practitioners. Accurate assessments will continue to inform bespoke planning, enabling a differentiated and personalised curriculum which accelerates learning.
Our Holycroft family ethos ensures that pupils feel safe and secure at school – we are a 'haven'. Pupils are able to swiftly access support for any barrier to their learning; educational, emotional or physical from our caring Holycroft team.
- We will continue to develop and support parents in both their own and their child's learning.
- The strong learning culture at Holycroft will continue to give children the tools to become self motivated learners and demonstrate outstanding learning behaviours.
- We continue to develop our knowledge and understanding of the cultural and religious differences and similarities between us all.
- We see each other as equal individuals and work together in cooperation with trust and respect.
Professional support is part of the development of all staff. Our school has a role in the development of other professionals and organisations in the community and beyond.
Our vision is to provide a happy, caring, safe and stimulating environment. We will enable all children to have the freedom to make appropriate choices and to develop as rounded, confident and responsible individuals. Their childhood experiences at Holycroft will provide a foundation for them to be able to meet life's challenges and prepare them to make their best contributions to future British and Global societies.
Our Mission
We believe that every child has the potential to achieve.
We promote achievement for all; high expectations; and a learning culture for all.
We provide this by caring for your child; providing excellent teaching in a safe environment; catering for the needs of each individual; and offering a curriculum that is fun and challenging.

The Commission on the Status of Women is under the United Nations Economic and Social Council which is dedicated to gender equality and the advancement of women.
This is the same Iran in which:
"women lack the ability to choose their husbands, have no independent right to education after marriage, no right to divorce, no right to child custody, have no protection from violent treatment in public spaces, are restricted by quotas for women's admission at universities, and are arrested, beaten, and imprisoned for peacefully seeking change of such laws" (FoxNews)
The United States could have voted against it. We did not. I think that is a slap in the face to women all over the world, both by the United Nations and by the United States.
I went to the website of the National Organization for women this morning and did a search for Iran and the Commission on the Status of Women. Although they have numerous articles on the Commission for the Status of Women, there was not a peep about this story.
Apparently politically correctness (and that fact that the current administration is Democrat) trumps the status of women.

Kevin Vaughan scored a goal, handed out two assists, collected five ground balls and caused four turnovers against No. 20 Georgetown (Gil Talbot).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Dean Gibbons tallied a season-high four goals, while Jeff Cohen added a hat trick, as the Harvard men's lacrosse team outscored No. 20 Georgetown, 7-3, in the first quarter and held on for a 16-15 win Tuesday afternoon at the Soldiers Field Soccer/Lacrosse Stadium.
Harry Krieger made11 saves in net for the Crimson, which improves to 2-1 overall and 2-0 at home. Daniel Eipp netted two goals and handed out an assist, while Peter Schwartz and Kevin Vaughan scored a goal and dished out two assists apiece. Davey Emala tallied a game-high five goals and goalie Jack Davis recorded 13 stops for Georgetown, which falls to 2-2 on the season.
After the Hoyas netted the first goal of the game at 13:05 of the first quarter, Cohen tied the game 30 seconds later, before Gibbons tallied back-to-back goals to give Harvard a 3-1 lead at 11:28. The Crimson netted four more scores in the frame, including a man-up tally by Peter Schwartz at 8:24, to take a 7-3 advantage into the second quarter.
Following a 10-goal first quarter, the teams did not manage a score until Doyle found the back of the net for Harvard at 3:55, increasing the Crimson lead to 8-3. The Hoyas answered with a 4-0 run to close the half, getting within one, 8-7, at the break.
Gibbons gave Harvard a two-goal cushion after receiving an assist by Mark Scalise at 10:51 of the third quarter, and then Daniel Eipp and Doyle followed with scores to put Harvard up by three, 11-8. Georgetown, though, answered once again, this time rolling off three straight goals to tie the game with 54 seconds left in the third quarter.
In the final session, Cohen and Gibbons netted goals at 11:37 and 11:03 of the fourth to give the Crimson a two-goal cushion, 13-11. Following a score by Georgetown's Zack Angel at 10:05 to cut the Crimson lead to 13-12, Vaughan, Matt Hill and Eric Slingerland tallied Harvard goals to make it 16-12 in favor of Harvard with 2:46 remaining.
With 2:03 left, Emala scored his fifth goal of the game for the Hoyas, and then Georgetown's Dan McKinney got Georgetown within two, 16-14, with 1:09 remaining. The Hoyas added another goal by Brian Casey with eight ticks left on the clock to get within a goal of Harvard, but the Crimson forced a turnover after Georgetown won the final faceoff to hold on for the victory.
Vaughan paced the Crimson with five ground balls, while causing four turnovers. Jason Gonos caused three turnovers, and Gabriel Mendola led Harvard with six faceoff victories. Georgetown owned a slight advantage in ground balls, 33-32, and led in faceoff wins, 21-12. Harvard finished 17-of-22 on clear attempts and was 3-of-6 on man-up opportunities.
Harvard is back in action Friday evening as the Crimson will host Bellarmine at the Soldiers Field Soccer/Lacrosse Stadium at 7 p.m.

soil. Topical soil treatments are only "skin deep," and the limited protection
they offer wears away after cleaning or normal wear and tear. In contrast, R2X
