To celebrate International Women's Day 2017, we asked some of the leading women from the burgeoning underground DIY music scene here in the UK to interview each other about the issues that mattered to them in a conversation covering everything from casual sexism, gender-identity, their sense of self, taking control of their own careers, how to go about building a more inclusive community, and the people who have inspired or helped them along the way. We've also put together a playlist featuring the best of the women's bands.
Phoebe Saunders (Harker): When I first started playing gigs I often found myself feeling intimidated or overwhelmed by other people assuming what I could or couldn't do or what I knew in terms of the instruments I play, and to combat this I ended up building a lot of my own equipment. Jen, have you ever found yourself feeling like you need to question your own knowledge or had to work harder than your male peers for the same recognition or do you think attitudes are beginning to change?
Jen Hingley (False Advertising): That's a sad thing to hear, but it holds true to me to some extent. In my experience, attitudes to my contribution to the band have varied massively. Generally I receive a lot more praise for my multi-instrumental role in the band than Chris, who also switches between guitar and drums. At first I did find this uncomfortable and unfair, but then I began to realise that a lot of these people are actually finding what I do inspiring because of my gender, as they're not used to seeing it. On the flip side, of course, I've had sexist hecklers at gigs – the guy the other day who said I "would sound better naked" for example – and had people write reviews solely commenting on my femininity or my appearance. But weirdly I think it's the drumming that shuts a lot of people up.
Laura – I'm really inspired by the DIY scale of your band and how much you've achieved with so little. From a band that has a similar ethos, I'm interested to ask how important you think it is for artists to communicate the fact what they've been able to achieve off their own backs. Do you think it encourages more people to do it themselves?
Laura Lee (Parachute For Gordo): Thanks! I think DIY is the core ethos of our band and we want that to encourage others to take chances and feel a freedom to make whatever they want. Films can now be produced on phones and recording equipment is now super affordable – it's a really exciting time for DIY projects. You don't want to be limited by money to make music, you can be very creative with nothing but a little imagination. I knew on our new record Possibility Of Not that I wanted to be ambitious, but we managed to produce all of the record and videos ourselves, and it might mean it's a bit rough around the edges, but hopefully we made something that's authentic, passionate and representative of our music scene.
Jess, I've just listened to your track 'Same Place' and I was very pleasantly surprised to hear a Sleater-Kinney influence. It so happens that I am currently reading Carrie Brownstein's book Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl. I think their magic was from being in a trio, something I identify with in my own band - how do Peaness feel about it?
Jess (Peaness): We totally agree. Three IS the magic number, after all. Being a three piece makes our relationships so honest and pure, it's something we talk about quite a bit. From the start, we wanted the spot light to be over all of us as a unit. In Peaness, myself and Balla share vocal responsibilities and we each have our separate moments to shine throughout different sections in different songs. Everything is so raw and somewhat fragile when it's just drums, bass, guitar as well – there are no other noises or drones to hide behind, nothing to mask a mistake, especially if you're writing structured pop songs as we do. It's that pressure that brings us (and the audience) so much excitement when it's flawless. We absolutely love the thrill.
Signe, we saw that Nelson Can run your own label in Denmark called Like A Can Of Beans Records, and release local upcoming talent. Another Danish band we all really like are Mew, who also run their own label – is this a common thing to do in Denmark for artists? What is it like managing a label and a band at the same time?
Signe Signe (Nelson Can): We decided to go back to basics and just do everything ourselves. It really strengthened us as a band and gave us the courage to just 'do our thing'. I think it's the future. We wanted to share the knowledge we have and help other bands get fair record deals and get their music out to a bigger crowd. There is a word in Danish called 'fællesskab' and the closest translations are 'fellowship' and 'community'. Fællesskab is the key word for our label. The money that the label earns is invested in the bands who need funding and all our bands help each other out in that way. We also help promote each other and share gear and stuff like that. No one is bigger than their network, and it's important to help each other out and just share the love. All bands stand on the shoulders of someone – someone who supported them at the right time or someone who just said the right thing or believed in them when they almost lost the faith themselves. So, Phoebe, who were those people for you, and how did it affect the way your musical career developed?
Phoebe Cross (Happy Accidents): I'm not sure there was a breakthrough moment, but rather a combination of lots of factors. My parents letting me have a drum kit when I was 12 and play it whenever I liked really started the whole thing off for me. Then there were lots of small chance moments like meeting my bandmates Rich and Neil at the right time. The Joiners, a venue in Southampton, definitely played a part by giving us our first shows. We've had a lot of support from all sorts of people and ultimately those coming to watch us who are fans of our music. Our label – shout out to Alcopop! – are so encouraging and the reaction from people at our shows certainly spurred me on when I doubted if we were good enough for 'this music thing'. I never think of it as a career but at the moment it's definitely a fun and challenging journey of sorts and maybe one day if I could call it a career that would be awesome!
Kaila, I loved Youth Man's animated video for 'Look/Wait' where you get abducted by aliens, so my question is a fun one – if aliens actually abducted you and you were able to choose what modifications you got, what would you chose?
Kaila Whyte (Youth Man): I would have suction pads attached to my extremities. My mom hates my band but she loves Lionel Ritchie, so if she ever came to another show I could literally climb the walls and dance on the ceiling and she would love it. Also, it'd probably help stop me falling over all the time!
Em, my question for you – as a queer woman I think my local scene is bloody amazing because I feel it's a safe space for all different kinds of creative people. As a member of the LGBQT+ community, do you feel supported by the music scene where you're from?
Em Foster (Nervus): I live in Brighton now and the local scene here is amazing. Everyone from the bands to the venues and promoters make an effort to be inclusive and supportive of all different kinds of people. It's also generally a safer place to be a trans woman. We played a show at Trans Pride in Brighton last year and I think that might have been one of our favourite shows we've ever done. I used to live in Watford, which doesn't have a Trans Pride event unfortunately, but I think the scene there is really supportive too. The Watford scene pretty much revolves around The LP Cafe and Titan Studios who have both done a lot for Nervus, and I can only speak for myself but I am sure that support would extend to all LGBTQ+ musicians and people. Venn Records are also based out of Watford and were born of the Watford scene I grew up in. Lags from Gallows was in a band called My Dad Joe who used to play down the Rugby Club. If it wasn't for Venn, Titan and The LP Cafe then Nervus wouldn't exist!
Lucinda, I really love the Sad EP that Kamikaze Girls released last year. With the subject matter being so personal, do you ever find it difficult performing these songs each night on tour?
Lucinda Livingstone (Kamikaze Girls): At first I was a little worried. In all those years of writing songs I had never really written something so personal, and if I had it was probably drenched in artistic license. I was worried about what the people involved in my life at the time would think about the songs, and was scared of being judged. We started playing them properly in the summer of 2015 and I felt very shy talking about the meaning behind them on stage, but it was something I wanted to share with people that came to our shows, or people that were watching us for the first time. I didn't feel comfortable doing this, but by the time our tour got to America and played The Fest in Gainesville I had a weird moment of realisation on stage mid-set before playing our song 'Ladyfuzz'. Conor and myself had been playing music for seven years and in the majority of that time my mental health and personal life was unbearable. But, somehow in a tiny sweaty venue in Gainesville, FL we'd made it onto a stage and there was a bunch of people there, despite only having one song on our bandcamp, and I was doing okay. I think I realised at that point that the months spent playing these songs and talking about some of my darker issues had helped me come out the other side of them. From that point on every set we played helped me, and it still does. Whilst releasing Sad I learned the best way I cope with things is by making music out of them, I can't do it any other way.
Phoebe, I lived in Brighton for four months last year, went to so many shows, and met a huge amount of amazing people. It soon became my favourite place in the UK, to live and to play because of how nice the people are and how supportive and open minded the DIY community is. What qualities do you love about the Brighton DIY scene and how has it affected or influenced you as a musician?
Phoebe Saunders (Harker): Well, like Em, there are a lot of things I love about Brighton, and the DIY scene which has evolved here. I know that as a young LGBT teenager I was incredibly lucky to grow up with such an open community around me and I'm sure that it has affected the person I am today to a great extent. Brighton obviously has quite a reputation for its liberal values and open-minded culture, but I think the DIY scene extends far beyond that. Having visited/played in many DIY venues across the UK/Europe I find myself constantly amazed by the community as a whole, and how it's always pushing forward to break new boundaries. I know that I can always feel safe and comfortable, and I'm always learning from the people around me wherever we are, as a musician, as a band and just for myself.

Hello everyone? Happy new month…Again, whoop whoop for Christmas being around the corner.
I can't for the life of me figure out what is up with Nairobi's weather. One second it's hot, the next it's cold. Take the day we shot this for example, it was so sunny even this tiny dress seemed like too much clothing. And then take yesterday night as a different example, when it was raining cats and dogs, just minutes after the Uber driver and I were remarking about how hot it was. I guess the weather is taking a page from life…
I don't own many dresses, not that it's any surprise. I could direct you to at least 3 articles on this site where I talk about my dresses' reservations but that's the equivalent of beating a point to death so I'll leave it alone. This was a gift (most of my dresses, and sneakers, are) and I whipped this look up hours before the shoot. I would love to carry this bag less often, but 1. I don't own another one that comes even close to it, and 2. What is the fun of owning a good bag if you can't carry it everyday?
Outfit Details:
Dress – H&M
Brogues – Backyard Shoes
Bag- Gikomba
Bracelets- Maasai Market

The Role of the Codex Alimentarius in Determining International Standards for Pesticides and Food1
F. M. Fishel2
The Codex Alimentarius was established in 1963 by the United Nations Food and Agriculture and World Health Organizations (FAO/WHO). It is a collection of internationally adopted food standards and related texts presented in a uniform manner. These food standards and related texts aim at protecting consumers' health and ensuring fair practices in the food trade. A principal concern of national governments is that food imported from other countries is safe and does not jeopardize the health of consumers or pose a threat to the health and safety of their animal and plant populations. Consequently, governments of importing countries have introduced mandatory laws and regulations to eliminate or minimize such threats. In the area of food, animal, and plant control, these measures could create barriers to international food trade. The publication of the Codex Alimentarius is intended to guide and promote the elaboration and establishment of definitions and requirements for foods to assist in their harmonization and in doing so to facilitate international trade.
The Codex Alimentarius includes standards for all the principal foods, whether processed, semi-processed, or raw, for distribution to the consumer. Materials for further processing into foods should be included to the extent necessary to achieve the purposes of the Codex Alimentarius as defined. The Codex Alimentarius includes provisions related to food hygiene, food additives, residues of pesticides and veterinary drugs, contaminants, labeling and presentation, methods of analysis and sampling, and import and export inspection and certification.
With pesticides, Codex Alimentarius sets goals to achieve the following:
establish maximum limits for pesticide residues in specific food items or in groups of food;
establish maximum limits for pesticide residues in certain animal feeding stuffs moving in international trade where this is justified for reasons of protection of human health;
prepare priority lists of pesticides for evaluation by the Joint FAO/WHO Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR);
consider methods of sampling and analysis for the determination of pesticide residues in food and feed;
consider other matters in relation to the safety of food and feed containing pesticide residues; and
establish maximum limits for environmental and industrial contaminants showing chemical or other similarity to pesticides in specific food items or groups of food.
The Codex Alimentarius Commission has been supported in its work by the now universally accepted principle that people have the right to expect their food to be safe, of good quality, and suitable for consumption. Food containing potentially harmful levels of pesticide residues can destroy the commercial credibility of suppliers, both nationally and internationally, and can adversely affect trade and consumer confidence. Creating standards that protect consumers, ensure fair practices in the sale of food, and facilitate trade is a process that involves specialists in numerous food-related scientific disciplines collaborating with consumers' organizations, production and processing industries, food control administrators, and traders.
Earlier Times of Food Safety Standardization
Evidence from the earliest historical writings indicates that governing authorities were concerned with standardization rules to protect consumers from dishonest practices in the sale of food. Assyrian tablets described the method used in determining the correct weights and measures for food grains, and Egyptian scrolls prescribed the labeling required for certain foods. In ancient Athens, beer and wines were inspected for purity and soundness, and the Romans had a well-organized state food control system to protect consumers from fraud or bad produce. In Europe during the Middle Ages, individual countries passed laws concerning the quality and safety of eggs, sausages, cheese, beer, wine, and bread. Some of these ancient statutes still exist today.
During the second half of the nineteenth century, food chemistry was recognized as a reputable discipline, and the determination of the "purity" of a food was based primarily on the chemical parameters of simple food composition. When harmful industrial chemicals were used to disguise the true color or nature of food, the concept of "adulteration" was extended to include the use of hazardous chemicals in food.
In the 1940s, rapid progress was made in food science and technology. With the advent of more sensitive analytical tools, knowledge about the nature of food, its quality, and associated health hazards grew quickly. At this time, as more information about food and related matters became available, there was greater consumer understanding. Previously, consumers' concerns had extended only as far as the "visibles"—underweight contents, size variations, misleading labeling, and poor quality. Now, the concerns included a fear of the "invisibles"—potential health hazards that could not be seen, smelled, or tasted, such as micro-organisms, pesticide residues, environmental contaminants, and food additives.
Codex Alimentarius Standards
One example of the many standards established by the Codex Alimentaris is maximum residue limits (MRLs) for residues of pesticides in foods. The methods of analysis and sampling for pesticide residues in commodities are also considered as standards instituted by the Codex Alimentarius.
The group called "commodity standards" is by far the largest number of specific standards in the Codex Alimentarius. The major commodities include the following:
cereals, legumes, and derived products, including vegetable proteins
fats and oils and related products
fish and fishery products
fresh fruits and vegetables
processed and quick-frozen fruits and vegetables
fruit juices
meat and meat products, including soups and broths
milk and milk products
sugars, cocoa products and chocolate, and other miscellaneous products
Most standards in the Codex Alimentarius take a number of years to develop. The Codex Alimentarius' Commission Secretariat arranges the preparation of proposed draft standards and circulates drafts to member governments for comment. Comments are considered by the subsidiary body allocated responsibility for the development of the proposed draft standard. Once the Commission adopts a standard, it is added to the Codex Alimentarius. At the present, standards for pesticide MRLs have been established for more than 200 active ingredients in practically every specific commodity within the major commodity groups listed above.
For many years, the Joint FAO/WHO Meetings on Pesticide Residues have produced internationally acclaimed data widely used by governments, industry, and research centers. The input from the FAO/WHO meetings into the work of the Codex Commission is of fundamental importance, and the publications resulting from those meetings and related activities are acclaimed international references.
The Future
Future activities in relation to the Codex Alimentarius will differ from previous activities. New challenges may occur because of scientific developments in fields related to food, changing attitudes of consumers, new approaches to food control, changing perceptions of government and food industry responsibilities, and changing food quality and safety concepts. These changes may present the need for new standards and new types of standards.
The application of biotechnology to food processing and production of raw food materials are currently under scrutiny by the Codex Alimentarius Commission. The Commission continually examines new concepts and systems associated with food safety and the protection of consumers against potential health hazards.

Did you know that May is National Melanoma/ Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month? The purpose of this month is to raise awareness and educate the public about skin cancer, ways to prevent it, and how to detect it. In honor of this month, this blog will do just that!
The Numbers
There are different types of skin cancer. The two most common types of skin cancer are basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas. The third most common type is Melanoma, which is very serious and potentially deadly. More people are diagnosed with skin cancer in the United States each year than any other cancer combined. Each HOUR, one person will die of Melanoma
The important thing to note is that you can help prevent skin cancer by educating yourself on how it's caused.
How to Help Prevent Skin Cancer
Most skin cancer is caused by the cells that are damaged by UV light, from either the sun or tanning beds. One can help prevent skin cancer by avoiding tanning beds, wearing sun block and protective clothing, sitting in the shade or under an umbrella when outside and wearing hats when outdoors, preferably a hat with a 360 degree brim of at least 3 inches all the way around; baseball caps protect only a portion of the head.
What is the Recommenced SPF?
The CDC recommends using at least an SPF of 15. It's important to remember to reapply sun block every two hours, after swimming, or if you have been sweating a lot. Also remember that sun block can expire, so be sure to check the expiration date.
Helpful Tip: Try to remember to keep some sun block in a purse, backpack or car. Having that handy will allow you to always be prepared!
What Should You Do If You Get Sunburn?
If you do become sunburned, there are a few things you can do to relieve the pain.
- If you are outside and near some water, briefly cool down your skin, and then get out of the sun as soon as you can. When bathing, try to keep it brief using cool water. When drying off, be gentle since the skin will probably be sensitive to touch. Also avoid scratching the skin because that can cause peeling.
- You can also place ice on the sunburn as well. Do not place ice directly on the burnt skin. For example, wrapping an icepack in a towel first can be helpful.
- Be sure to keep skin moisturized with lotion as well. Aloe Vera can also help soothe the skin.
- Hydrate Hydrate Hydrate! Water is the best drink for hydration.
- Taking an anti-inflammatory over the counter medication can help relieve inflammation and pain. You should consult with a doctor or healthcare provider before you start taking any new medications to make sure it is the right one for you.
How HRUC Can Help?
If you suffer from severe sunburn, and the skin begins to blister, don't pop them- that could cause an infection! Feelings of confusion, dizziness, or sustaining a fever can also occur with a severe sunburn.
If suffering from any of the above symptoms, you should seek a medical professional.
Here at HRUC we offer medical treatment general health illnesses such as severe sunburns. No appointments are necessary, and walk-ins are always welcome.
Takeaway Message
Putting on sunscreen may seem like a tedious task. Having a year round tan from the tanning bed may seem cool now, but the choices we make today can lead to consequences that affect our health later. Taking the proper precautions and care of our skin today can help prevent more serious illnesses down the road such as skin cancer. It will also eliminate that painful, damaging, and potential damaging sunburn!

Happy Wednesday everyone! I'm back from my vacation and feeling rejuvenated and well rested. It was one of the most relaxing vacations I've had in awhile because it really required no work other than laying on the beach under the warm sun. I'll share pics later this week:)
Now that summer is pretty much over there are a couple of transitional items for Fall I'll be wearing constantly, starting with this leather peplum top. It's perfect to wear for date night, girls night out, and pretty much whenever you want to add a bit of feminine edge to your outfit;)
Enjoy the rest of the week! Xo.

Aikido is a martial art that originated in Japan, much like karate or jiu-jitsu, and it similarly involves using an opponent's energy and momentum to turn his attack against him. Unlike karate or jiu-jitsu, however, aikido techniques do not involve strikes, punches, or kicks. Instead, aikido practitioners use various joint locks and leverage to throw an opponent, or pin him to the ground. Ideally, aikido is used to neutralize an attack without causing significant physical harm to the attacker.
Officially founded in 1925 by Morihei Ueshiba — who we refer to as Ōsensei, meaning "Great Teacher" — aikido was developed after years of practicing various other martial arts. Ōsensei's religious and philosophical views led him to refine the techniques he had studied into a new discipline designed to allow its practitioners to effectively defend themselves from attack without causing injury to others. For Ōsensei, it was a moral imperative to not only protect oneself, but to be able to protect even one's aggressor, and to resolve conflicts without escalating violence. The practice of aikido is intended to develop not only the mind and body, but the spirit as well.
Because of this, aikido is often called "peaceful" or "non-violent." It is, however, a true martial art with a prestigious lineage, practiced in thousands of dojos across the world. Aikido of Austin is a member dojo of the United States Aikido Federation, which is directly affiliated with the Aikido World Headquarters in Toyko, Japan. Our head instructor, Josef Birdsong Sensei, began his study of aikido in 1970, and has been teaching since 1974 and currently holds the rank of 6th Dan (6th-degree black belt).
For more detailed information about aikido's history and its founder, we recommend consulting Wikipedia.

This morning, a fat, creamy envelope plopped onto my doormat. Oh noes, I bethought me, it's another thumbnail of Vince looking grave and determined, telling me how wonderful I am and asking me for more money.
I have been upgraded in the Lib Dem stationery lexicon to creamy ploppy envelope, you see, on account of a recent undertaking over the phone to sign up for an extra direct debit. Sadly, I remain a freeloader in that creamy ploppy category because the letter which consequently arrived thanking me in fulsome terms for my direct debit did not actually contain the direct debit form to which it happily alluded, and I have been trying to remember to do something about it ever since. Sometimes I wonder if we are quite ready for government after all.
But no, this creamy ploppy missive is from my MP, Chris Grayling, in response to my email of last week about the MPs' expenses exemption from the Freedom of Information Act.
Now, let me say first of all that I am suitably impressed to receive a reply. It was, after all, not twenty-four hours after my email was sent that the whole issue was pulled off the table, at which point Grayling's stance became of slightly more academic interest and I would have accepted silence on the point.
Let me add that I am also happy with the overall tone of the letter, in favour of openness, would have voted against it, taxpayer must be able to access a full and transparent picture etc etc. And moreover, that he made a point I hadn't entirely expressed to myself, that the legislation would have been retrospective, which is an abstract no-no in legislative terms.
Let me say all that, just to put the drubbing to follow into some kind of context.
Grayling says the government made the U-turn after "real pressure was applied by David Cameron and the wider Conservative Party."
Say what?
I followed that whole twenty-four hours leading up to the government U-turn fairly closely on the blogs and the news, and rather received the impression that the Tories, unloveable versions of Flashman that they are, were hiding behind a tree wetting themselves until it became clear which way the wind was blowing ("Oh dash it! Georgina, fetch me my new spats!") Bishop Hill, who as he says is far away from being our greatest fan, agrees. It was the Lib Dems who shouted, have been shouting since (on the laziest google search ever) March.
Cameron's original plan was apparently to suggest abstention. As late as 20 January, two days before the vote, the Beeb, in reporting on the surge of protest courtesy of MySociety, could still state that:
Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg says he will recommend his MPs vote against the exemption.
But so far neither the Parliamentary Labour Party nor the Conservative Party have stated whether they will support or oppose the FOI exemption.
Now, as to this alleged Tory-Labour pact blarney. I watched the news that evening and watched Harriet Harman assert hand on heart that there had been an agreement with the Tories to support the Order, and then watched Alan Duncan assert hand on heart that there hadn't been. One or both of them must have been at least half-lying, I honestly have no particular preconception as to which. But it's nonetheless germane to point out that there are still whispers about certain Tories being discomposed by the late change of stance.
At the very least, there are question marks over the Conservative party's behaviour on this issue, whether the charge is duplicity or simple dithering cowardice. For Chris Grayling to imply that the Tories were somehow leading the charge against the government's attempt to curb freedom of information is repellantly deceitful. The announcement of a whipped Tory no vote could have turfed this off the table at any time, but Cameron only acquiesed to popular campaign pressure at the last minute to make that decision.
It's ghastly not just because it's deceitful, but because it's apparently based on the assumption that I won't have been interested enough to watch what was going on. It makes you wonder what else they get away with telling people who aren't obsessively plugged in to politics, and who don't have immediately obvious ways of checking what they're told and expressing it publicly.
As the saying goes, never bullshit a bullshitter. Especially one with a blog.

I was at a farm shop one day over the summer for lunch; I really liked how they had branded the entire the shop in a fun way, by taking the farm aspect to excess. So much so that it even continues to the toilets as you can see below! I remember I took these photo's just because I thought the signs were funny. They are actually relevant to my current advertising and branding module however.
They how the little details can contribute to your overall personality. Whilst the farmshop that was very serious about fresh, free-range produce they were not serious and dull about their communication of it – they were playful and astute. It was clear they were professional but they could have a fun too.
The photograph below was taken in Bowness when I was down at the Lake Distritct. I remember thinking how it had a much nicer tone that the usual "NO FOOD OR DRINK".
You can almost imagine the disaster in your head – it's visual. You feel sorry for them because something bad actually happened – it's a precaution that's based on experience (not just a speculative one). The "please, please" sounds like they are begging you, but in an exaggerated way where it sounds childish; making it amusing. This sign gives the shop a "voice" which speaks to the customer before they have even came inside. It's a nice voice speaking a serious message but in a good attitude. I think it's a small but good example of branding.

Louisiana's State Highlights
|Vital Statistics

|Public school teachers
|Pre-K-12 students
|Annual pre-K-12 expenditures
|$5.1 billion
|Minority students
|Children in poverty

Summary of Grades
Louisiana's overall performance across the four graded categories of Quality Counts is well above average, and the state scores at the top of the nation in two of the four policy areas.
Louisiana is the highest-scoring state in standards and accountability. The state receives full credit for the assessment and school accountability indicators. Louisiana falls short of a perfect score in this section only because the American Federation of Teachers has not rated its social studies standards at the elementary school level as clear and specific.
Louisiana is also the top-ranked state for teacher quality, receiving full credit for three of the four subcategories in this section. The state links initial and second-stage teacher licensure to an extensive assessment system for aspiring and veteran educators. Louisiana also has strong policies in place for professional support and training for teachers, as well as a number of measures for holding teacher education institutions accountable for teacher quality.
School climate is the only category in which the state receives a lower-than-average grade. In particular, the state has room for improvement on measures of school safety and parent involvement.
Louisiana receives another above-average grade in resource equity. Its score on the coefficient-of-variation measure, for example, indicates a relatively low level of disparity in per-pupil funding across districts in the state.

Are you a man who feels embarrassed about having ED? Having this condition is hard to deal with and feeling embarrassed is only natural. But some men also feel guilty, because they believe there's something they did in order to bring the condition about. This might be the case, but it doesn't mean you have to suffer without any chance of help. Levitra can help you to deal with ED problems and quite effectively. In this article we're going to discuss the drug, its uses, side effects and more.
What are Levitra's main uses?
The main purpose of this drug is to treat different male sexual dysfunction issues. It works in conjunction with sexual stimulation. It increases the blood flow to the penis in order to help a man to achieve and maintain an erection.
How is the drug supposed to be used?
You must make sure you carefully read the patient information that comes with the drug.
You must make sure you speak with a doctor about any questions you might have.
Be sure to take Levitra by mouth as told to by your doctor.
Take the drug with or without food, about one hour before engaging in sexual activity.
Be sure you don't take more than one pill each day.
Be sure to take doses at least 24 hours apart from each other.
Be sure to stay away from consuming grapefruit juice while on Levitra.
What are some of the potential side effects?
You may experience a headache flushing, stuffy/runny nose or dizziness.
Vision changes like heightened sensitivity to light or blurred vision.
Severe dizziness, fainting, pain in the chest/jaw/left arm or nausea.
A sudden loss of hearing, which occurs rarely or ringing in the ears.
Prolonged erections, which if they last for more than4 hours you should get medical help right away.
Medication Precautions
Be sure to let your doctor know if you are allergic.
Disclose medical history to your doctor before taking.
Let doctor know if you have any heart issues, because this increases the chances for problems such as QT prolongation.
How to store
Levitra should be stored at room temperature, far away from any light or moisture
Keep away from the bathroom.
Be sure to keep Levitra away from pets and children.
It's easy to understand why a man would feel embarrassed to discuss erectile dysfunction problems. It's a personal issue and men don't like to open themselves up to the possibility of being judged. However, getting help for ED problems is something you must do if you hope to have a normal sex life. You don't need to feel guilty about having the condition.
The only true guilt comes if you decide to suffer in silence and not get the help you need. Then you open yourself up to a slew of problems that can easily be addressed. Speak with a doctor about Levitra today or research more about the medication in order to ease any worries you might have about it.

Pakistan Environment Protection Agency (Pak-EPA) has constituted a review committee to decide on granting environmental approval to the Centaurus Complex Building project.
The 12-member review committee comprising nominees of Planning Commission, Capital Development Authority (CDA), Islamabad Capital Territory Authority, Islamabad Electric Supply Company and seismic, environmental and architectural experts would look into the concerns raised by stakeholders at the public hearing on the Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) of the project.
It is interesting to note that the review proceedings for grant of environmental approval are to commence without the submission of Environment Management Plan, a pre-requisite for such consent.
Although it may be difficult for Pak-EPA to block the project, it is anticipated that the most likely path would be that of a conditional approval.
Pak-EPA believes that the builders of the mega-building complex project M/s Pak-Gulf acted illegally by starting the execution of the project before completing the EIA process, which constituted violation of Section 12 of Pakistan Environmental Protection Act, 1997.
The allegation has been denied by the constructors, who say they had submitted the EIA report before going ahead with it. The EIA report submitted by the builders, EPA chief Asif Shuja Khan says had several shortcomings as it did not address issues like vibration, reflection, construction materials emission estimates, heat generation and water supply.
One of the biggest highrise projects in the capital having three towers has been widely criticised by the environmentalists and some members of the public for being too taxing for the already inadequate civic amenities of the city and because of other environmental concerns.
Sources claim that under public pressure the CDA has already reneged on its commitment of providing utilities for the project, which would have cost Rs1.62 billion of the taxpayers' money.
The water consumption of the project once completed is anticipated to be 1.3 million litres per day, whereas its electricity use could be 15-20 MW.

Anne Lindbergh QuoteMonday, May 14, 2012
By and large, mothers and housewives
are the only workers
who do not have regular time off.
They are the great vacationless class.
~~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Just a little something to think about when you see a mom who looks worn and tired - she is probably. I mean even when moms get time to themselves, how long does their mind and heart spend remembering, or worrying or loving her kids? However she is doing a job she will be ever grateful for.

Mountain Dew's "Puppymonkeybaby" was hardly the most popular spot in Super Bowl 50 — at least according to viewer opinion. The bizarre commercial ranked only 55th out of 63 ads on this year's USA Today Ad Meter list.
But it did produce more smiles than any other spot, according to a facial recognition study performed by Annalect, Omnicom's data platform.
The results of the "Moodometer" study, which captured the facial expressions of 134 people as they watched five random Super Bowl 50 commercials, raises questions about measurement and the disparity between what viewers say they enjoy and what actually moves them.

The Skiing is Great in Steamboat
Taking a break from the practice of law is essential to keeping KT Law's attorneys focused during the week. Here's what some of the attorneys will be doing this weekend in Steamboat!
Taking a break from the practice of law is essential to keeping KT Law's attorneys focused during the week. Here's what some of the attorneys will be doing this weekend in Steamboat!
Klauzer & Tremaine attorney and 2013-2014 Vice President, District 7 Representative, Jessica Ryan attended the Colorado Board of Governors Annual Meeting in Colorado Springs. Jessica was able to take a break from the meeting to capture this lovely shot of the Garden of the Gods with Pikes Peak in the background.
Last winter, Paralegal Karen Dierkes participated as a volunteer to assist artist Sonja Hinrichsen in her "Snow Drawings" project. In 2013, Ms. Hinirichsen's canvas was Lake Catamount near Steamboat Springs, Colorado. As you can see from the photos below, the completed project was beautiful! All photos may be found here.
Photos are available to purchase. To purchase or for more information, please contact Sonja Hinrichsen at http://www.sonja-hinrichsen.com/contact/ or sonja[at]s-hinrichsen.net.
Snow Drawings at Catamount Lake was created in a joint effort with over 60 volunteers from Steamboat Springs and vicinity, who came out with their snowshoes to walk spiral patterns during the 3 days between Friday February 1st and Sunday February 3rd 2013. Despite deep, heavy snow that made walking difficult and strenuous people stayed and created a stunning art piece on the lake. I was greatly impressed of the piece that revealed itself when I flew over the lake Monday morning. I want to thank all volunteers for their great work, the Steamboat Springs Public Library and Steamboat Springs Arts Council for their invaluable assistance in organizing this event, the Lake Catamount Touring Center for hosting us, and the pilot who flew endless rounds over the lake, so that I could take hundreds of photos.

About the project (in the words of Sonja Hinrichsen):
"Snow Drawings" is an ongoing project where I "draw" large designs in the environment by walking lines into fresh snow surfaces with snowshoes. Ideal "canvases" are deforested areas and frozen lakes. The finished pieces are ephemeral. While they take hours to create, their duration is unpredictable. Sometimes they are coated over by new snow shortly after completion.
I began this project in winter 2009 during an artist residency in Snowmass Village in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Out of play I started designing patterns in my mind, which I then transferred onto the snow. My designs have since become more elaborate , and I have continued this project in other landscapes across the US. Last winter I worked with community volunteers for the first time. This enabled me to create even larger pieces. During two exhilarating community events that combined art-making and outdoor winter activity in a stunning landscape in the Colorado Mountains, we created large drawings that could only be seen from the air in their entirety – and only for a limited time. The volunteers took pride in their participation in these environmental works, connecting with the project and the landscape. The 2012 "Snow Drawings" received significant press; they were presented on numerous art, design and culture websites, and written about in magazines, including SOMA Magazine, TRACCE (Italian Archeology Magazine), and a Chinese Art Magazine. They were featured on NPR, MSNBC, The Discovery Channel, public TV Tokyo. Photographic prints have been exhibited in California and Europe. This experience inspired more ambitious plans for this coming winter. In January and February 2013 I plan to take this project to a new level and organize community events in different geographical regions across the US – to create monumental-scale drawings. I have so far secured support from three organizations to host events: in upstate NY, in Southwestern Wyoming, and the Nature Conservancy will host the work in Northwestern Colorado. In Colorado we plan to cover an entire frozen lake with snow drawings. I am currently in discussion with several organizations in other parts of the US. During their short existence "Snow Drawings" correspond with the landscape – and so do those who assist in creating them. To make the work accessible to a larger audience, it is essential that photos be taken immediately after each event. The scale of the work requires aerial photography.
I hope that these pieces emphasize the beauty and uniqueness of each landscape, and thus inspire appreciation for nature – especially as modern society becomes increasingly disconnected from the natural world.

Last weekend, Meghan Lutterman ran the Steamboat Springs Half Marathon and finished! It was her first half marathon experience and despite running with an ankle injury, Meghan would definitely do it again! The half marathon course is a beautiful jaunt from Moon Hill Meadows in North Routt County to downtown Steamboat Springs.
Diana spent part of her Memorial Day Weekend exploring Irish Canyon in Northwestern Colorado. She spotted some very interesting petroglyphs made by Native Americans referred to as the Fremont People. Check out her photos below.

Your Guide To AVSD When Your Child With Down's Syndrome Has Been Diagnosed With It
It's important to note that Down's Syndrome has become more common in recent years and about one out of every two children born with it will have heart abnormalities of some type. Therefore, many newborns and very young infants will be seen by a pediatric cardiologist and may continue to be cared for by that person until he or she is an adult. As a result, in order to provide your little one with the best possible care, it's best to consider the following information when planning for your baby's future medical care.
Understanding What Atrioventricular Septal Defect Is
Atrioventricular Septal Defect, or AVSD, is the most common heart condition for people with Down's Syndrome. It presents with a hole in the middle of the heart and varying levels of deformation between the parts of the heart that pump blood out as the parts of the heart where the blood comes back, including the heart valves.
Surgery is always necessary, as explained below. However, since there are risks to any surgery, it's not unusual to delay the surgery until newborns with it are medically stable.
Planning For Surgical Intervention
It is important to understand that surgery for the heart defect will not cure it. It will improve the condition of the heart and reduce the possibility of secondary damage, such as damage to the lungs. The leaky valves associated with AVSD will not improve on their own and the complications of avoiding care long-term for AVSD include death.
In addition, many people with AVSD need additional surgeries in the future in order to stay healthy. as the l leaky valves can be problematic as a patient grows. If your son or daughter were to experience any unexplained weight gain or fluid retention in the future, even if it occurs soon after the surgery, you should speak with their heart doctor as soon as you can.
In conclusion, children who have been diagnosed with Down's Syndrome are at a much higher risk than the general public to be born with some type of heart condition. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance imperative to be sure that your child who has that genetic disorder is seen by a cardiologist soon after birth, even if he or she does not present with a heart condition at birth. Given that AVSD is so common amongst persons with Down's Syndrome, many surgeries to address it happy safely and effectively every year.

It was pretty much a given that Sony would be showing off some new PS4 games at the last major Western gaming event before the console launches this holiday, but it's still comforting to hear it confirmed.
SCEE president Jim Ryan told GameReactor:
There's a lot coming. I'm sure you heard from Shu [Yoshida] that he has 30 games in development [from SCE Worldwide Studios]. 20 of them are going to ship within the first year of the console's life, and of those 12 are new IP. There's a lot going on, we need to keep stuff back. We've got gamescom for us Europeans–we need to have something to show at gamescom, don't we?
If you're wondering what could be on the way, here's everything we know about the PS4's unannounced exclusives.
Despite an overall strong E3 presence, Sony did disappoint with only one first party game reveal, The Order: 1886, but hopefully they'll improve upon that at the European convention. The Vita was also seriously neglected at E3, but Sony has promised more screen time at gamescom.
What do you want to be announced at gamescom? Let us know in the comments below, and be sure to mark August 21st-25th on your calendar to see what happens.

Growing up, my family and I were huge fans of RaceTrac, and we still are! Every morning on the way to school, my mom would stop by RaceTrac for her morning coffee, and I would grab whatever I wanted, which typically was a breakfast sandwich. Fast forward a few years later, I now stop by RaceTrac to start my day. Things have changed quite a bit at RaceTrac since my school days. I had the opportunity to check out RaceTrac's new remodel initiative.
RaceTrac is currently remodeling its Georgia fleets and has completed a new modern store layout which includes expanded indoor and outdoor seating and a full coffee bar. RaceTrac's "Crazy Good Coffee" bar offers a variety of freshly brewed coffee, including 100 percent hazelnut, regular, Columbian, decaf, and dark roast. The coffee bar is very coffee shop-like. You will have the oppprounity to be your own barista, selecting your favorite coffee blend, and pairing it with your favorite creamers, sweeteners, and toppings! Whipped cream in your coffee? They've got it!
While exploring the new layout, I had a chance to try the new menu as well. I was totally surprised. When you typically think of gas stations, you don't associate freshness and made-to-order. Well, at RaceTrac you get just that. They are fully committed to offering the ultimate grab-and-go convenience, taking pride in the freshest and most customizable food. They now have a kiosk where you can create your made-to-order food, and then it's prepared by a trained employee. You can customize your order choosing your favorite bread, meats, veggies, and cheeses. The made-to-order items are fresh and prepared daily. RaceTrac's kitchen also offers breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, pizza, espresso beverages, milk shakes, and smoothies.
During my visit, I got a chance to meet Chef Ashleigh Michaels. Chef Ashleigh is now RaceTrac's full-time, in-house executive chef. She's a gem. Her energy is contagious, and she's really passionate about her craft. She has over 12 years working with/for QSRs (Quick Serve Restaurants) and manufacturers including Schwan's, Dawn foods, Auntie Anne's International, Cinnabon Domestic and International as well as Focus Brands Global Channel Team (all six brands – Moe's, McAllister's, Schlotszky's, Carvel, Cinnabon, and Auntie Anne's).
Throughout Chef Ashleigh's career, she has collaborated with large brands such as General Mills, Kellogg's, and Hershey Food Company to bring brand and private label products to market. At RaceTrac, she oversees all culinary R&D projects for RT made, hot foods, fresh foods, bakery, swirl world, and dispensed beverage categories, and works closely with food safety managers when reviewing vendors, products, and processes. She also works directly with food and equipment vendors and manufacturers to get RaceTrac exactly what they need from a quality and platform standpoint.
Of course I couldn't end the evening without experiencing The Swirl World. I am obsessed with their ice cream! The toppings bar offers up to 40 toppings. Needless to say, I went to town on my ice cream creations. I had a huge selection of gummies, sprinkles, chocolate chips, salted caramel, hot fudge, whipped topping, and fresh berries, just to name a few. RaceTrac offers seasonal flavors, so it wouldn't be fall without pumpkin flavor.
I had a great time exploring all of the new and exciting things that the upgraded RaceTrac has to offer! And when you visit, I know you will enjoy everything as well.

Weekly wire: The global forum
These are some of the views and reports relevant to our readers that caught our attention this week.
Commodity crash has dragged back world's poorest countries, finds UN
Public Finance International
In a report on the progress of the world's least developed countries (LDCs), published yesterday, the United Nations warned that a drop in international support also means these countries are likely to remain locked in poverty. It predicted the world will miss its target to halve the size of the LDC group by the end of the decade. The 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, which were agreed by world leaders last year and include targets on ending extreme poverty, are also at risk. "These are the countries where the global battle for poverty eradication will be won or lost," said Mukhisa Kituyi, secretary general of the UN Conference on Trade and Development, which produced the report. "A year ago, the global community pledged to 'leave no one behind', but that is exactly what is happening to the LDCs." Global poverty is increasingly concentrated in the 48 LDCs, which comprises mostly of African and Asian nations alongside some Pacific island states and Haiti.
OECD Recommendation of the Council for Development Cooperation Actors on Managing Risks of Corruption
There is strong awareness among the global community that corruption poses serious threats to development goals and that international development agencies have a common interest in managing and reducing, to the extent possible, the internal and external risks to which aid activities are exposed, in order to obtain effective use of aid resources. This Recommendation of the Council for Development Co-operation Actors on Managing the Risk of Corruption (Recommendation) promotes a broad vision of how international development agencies can work to address corruption, including the bribery of foreign public officials, and to support these agencies in meeting their international and regional commitments in the area of anti-corruption.
Global migration's impact and opportunity
Migration is a key feature of our increasingly interconnected world. It has also become a flashpoint for debate in many countries, which underscores the importance of understanding the patterns of global migration and the economic impact that is created when people move across the world's borders. A new report from the McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), People on the move: Global migration's impact and opportunity, aims to fill this need. Refugees might be the face of migration in the media, but 90 percent of the world's 247 million migrants have moved across borders voluntarily, usually for economic reasons. Voluntary migration flows are typically gradual, placing less stress on logistics and on the social fabric of destination countries than refugee flows. Most voluntary migrants are working-age adults, a characteristic that helps raise the share of the population that is economically active in destination countries. By contrast, the remaining 10 percent are refugees and asylum seekers who have fled to another country to escape conflict and persecution.
Syria's New Media Landscape
Middle East Institute
The Syrian Civil War has shaken the country's media landscape and provided space for the nascent emergence of an independent Syrian media. Syria's media culture is undergoing significant transformation from a top-down, state-run industry, to a diverse arena populated by competing viewpoints and driven by communities. This paper maps the changes in Syrian media since the beginning of the uprising in 2011, and explores the constraints facing independent media moving forward. Stronger mechanisms to support independent media in Syria are needed—such as additional and consistent funding, industry associations, and ease of travel—to develop a more open media culture in Syria, and foster a democratic and pluralistic post-conflict society.
World Malaria Report 2016
World Health Organization
The "World Malaria Report 2016" draws on data from 91 countries and areas with ongoing malaria transmission. The information is supplemented by data from national household surveys and databases held by other organizations. This year's report tracks progress towards the 2020 malaria goals of the "Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016-2030". It offers an in-depth analysis of trends in malaria control and elimination at global, regional and country levels.
11th IGF Chair's Summary (as of 14 December)
Internet Governance Forum
The 11th IGF was held from 6 to 9 of December 2016 in Zapopan, Jalisco, México. The meeting marked the first gathering of the global multistakeholder IGF community since the renewal of the IGF's mandate for 10 years by the United Nations General Assembly at the WSIS+10 High Level Event2 last year. With the overall meeting theme of 'Enabling Inclusive and Sustainable Growth', the IGF provided a substantive platform for engaged and informed discussions about, among many other things, how the Internet can support and help to enable sustainable growth as envisaged by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Last night the Center for New Music (C4NM) hosted guitarist Henry Kaiser, performing with his frequent colleague Scott R. Looney behind a piano keyboard and Scott Amendola sitting at a table filled with electronic modules, almost all of which were controlled by analog potentiometers. In response to an informal poll of the audience, the trio played a single set that ran for about 75 minutes and covered about half a dozen improvised pieces. Kaiser played a different guitar for each of those pieces. The first was an acoustic instrument, while all of the other guitars were connected to another diverse bank of electronics, which he controlled with his feet. At least some of Kaiser's gear involved sampling and playback.
At the end of the set, Kaiser remarked that the group may have set a record with the number notes they had played. Indeed, it would be fair to say that all of those notes were the focus of attention, almost as if the group wanted the listeners to be aware of every one of them as its own point of energy source. Any conventional sense of phrasing gave way to the more general perspective of domains of activity, each domain involving focused attention on a single source of sonorities.
From that point of view, it was useful for those not familiar with this approach to music-making that Kaiser started off with his acoustic instrument. This was actually an extended instrument, a harp guitar that suggested a six-string guitar aspiring to be an archlute. In addition to those six strings over the fretboard, there was an auxiliary bank of open strings spanning the space above that fretboard. Kaiser, of course, had his own ways of playing both banks of strings, which alternated between using a pick and using his fingers. All this provided a first taste of a rhetoric of dense pointillism that would pervade the entire set, reinforced in the remaining pieces by sampling technology.
Note that phrase "behind a keyboard" in the first paragraph. Looney himself was confined to a relatively limited space, but his performance was not limited by the keyboard. Much of his time was spent in direct contact with the piano strings, often mediated by objects, most of which could not be seen but were diverse enough to elicit a wide variety of sonorities. He also had a table of additional gear to his right, including a zither-like frame housing about two dozen open strings, each with its own pickup. Looney was just as imaginative in his approach to those strings as he was to the interior of his piano. Here, again, the technique was highly pointillist, while the rhetoric was that of Brownian motion.
Finally, Amendola had his own bank of "concrete objects" supplementing his electronic gear. Much of what he did involved getting different sounds out of those objects that were then picked up by a microphone and fed to his electronic equipment. There also seemed to be at least one device controlled by a photocell. However, this was another one of those cases in which the functionality of the equipment made it difficult for the listener to be aware of underlying causal relationships between the actions of performance and the sounds that resulted.
Taken as a whole, this was an evening of intense activity. Indeed, the visual experience of just sitting there and watching "men at work" tended to be as absorbing and the sonorous by-products of that "work." These were activities that ventured far beyond the usual denotations and connotations of "jamming," even in the "progressive" domain of free jazz. Mind you, the sonorities that emerged were anything but incidental to all of that intensely urgent activity; but this was definitely an evening in which the "making" aspect of music-making carried just as much signification as the resulting "by-products." If memory recalls little more than the resulting flood of entropy, then one should take comfort in the possibility that entropy was actually the raison d'être behind the occasion.
