The focus of this 36th Bethesda Conference is the trained athlete with an identified cardiovascular abnormality. The goal is to formally develop prudent consensus recommendations regarding the eligibility of such individuals for competition in organized sports, and to present these considerations in a readily useble format for clinicians. This document constitutes an update of the 16th (in 1985) (1) and more recent 26th (in 1994) (2) Bethesda Conferences. Once again, we have attempted to ascertain by the consensus of an expert panel which cardiovascular abnormalities (and with what degree of severity) place the competitive athlete at increased risk for sudden and unexpected death or disease progression so as to justify medical recommendations against participation in all or certain competitive sports, for the purpose of reducing that risk.
Impetus for the revision
There are several reasons to offer this revision of the 26th Bethesda Conference (2). Over the past decade, substantial advances have taken place in the diagnosis and management of a variety of genetic and acquired cardiovascular diseases, in the recognition of the causes of athletic field deaths (3–5), and in ethical and legal issues that impact medical decision making (3–7). Also, sudden cardiac deaths in competitive athletes continue to be highly visible, compelling, and emotional events with significant liability considerations (3,6,7). These catastrophes are frequently subjected to intense public scrutiny largely because of their occurrence in young and otherwise healthy appearing individuals, including elite participants in collegiate and professional sports (3,6,7). Such sudden deaths are known to occur in athletes of both genders (although much more commonly in men by 9:1), minorities, at a wide range of ages, and in a broad spectrum of sports (most commonly basketball and football in the U.S. and soccer in Europe) (3–5). All of these considerations, as well as the legal decision in Knapp vs. Northwestern, which placed the Bethesda Conference recommendations for the eligibility of athletes with cardiovascular abnormalities as a precedent (6), have led to the necessity for this revised document.
As before, we define the competitive athlete as one who participates in an organized team or individual sport that requires regular competition against others as a central component, places a high premium on excellence and achievement, and requires some form of systematic (and usually intense) training. Therefore, organized competitive sports are regarded as a distinctive activity and lifestyle. An important component of a competitive sports activity concerns whether athletes are able to properly judge when it is prudent to terminate physical exertion. For example, the unique pressures of organized sports do not allow athletes to demonstrate strict control over their level of exertion or reliably discern when cardiac-related symptoms or warning signs arise. However, the panel recognizes that this definition is most easily applied to high school, college, and professional sports. Clinicians may want to use individual judgment in defining competitive forms of physical activity for participants in many youth sports activities, particularly those for children less than age 12 years.
Athletes may be regarded as competitive in many sporting disciplines—at almost any age or level of participation, including involvement in high school, college, professional, and master's sports (8). The recommendations in this document do not apply to (and are not specifically designed for) non-competitive recreational sports activities; such appropriate guidelines appear elsewhere (9). Nevertheless, we also recognize that some practitioners will choose to extrapolate or translate the recommendations for competitive athletes selectively to some recreational sports, and to non-athletes with occupations that require vigorous physical exertion (e.g., firefighters or emergency medical technicians), or to cardiac rehabilitation programs.
Furthermore, it is emphasized that these Bethesda Conference recommendations should not be regarded as an injunction against physical activity in general; indeed, the panel recognizes the well-documented health benefits of exercise. In particular, regular recreational physical activities should be encouraged. Excessive and unnecessary restrictions could potentially create physical and psychological burdens (particularly in young children).
The prevalence of cardiovascular disease in the young athletic population is low. Furthermore, although the precise risk of sudden cardiac death in athletes with underlying disease is unresolved, it is also undoubtedly low (3,10). Indeed, the number of athletes who die of cardiovascular or related causes each year in the U.S. is probably less than 300, compared with the large number of athletes participating in a broad spectrum of organized sports (about 10 to 15 million) of all ages in the U.S.
If sudden death in athletes is a relatively uncommon event, why is it regarded as a substantive medical issue? This relates largely to the generally held perception that competitive athletes represent the healthiest and most dynamic members of society, in whom cardiovascular sudden deaths become symbolic and riveting and strike to the core of our sensibilities. Indeed, these events are counterintuitive, and the visibility of such catastrophes is often enhanced by their portrayal in the news media as public events rather than personal and family tragedies (3,6,7). For elite athletes who often achieve celebrity status, the economic stakes may be high, making medical decision making even more difficult (3,6,7). For all these reasons, the sudden deaths of athletes have had enormous impact on the public consciousness and attitudes of the medical profession.
Conference design and format
A primary foundation for this 36th Bethesda Conference is the generally accepted tenet that young trained athletes with underlying cardiovascular abnormalities are at increased risk for sudden cardiac death (usually on the athletic field) (3–5), in comparison to non-athletes with cardiovascular disease (relative risk 2.5, in one study) (11), largely by virtue of exposure to the unique physiologic and psychologic stresses of intense training and competition. Indeed, physical activity during training or competition appears to trigger the vast majority of sudden deaths in athletes (3–5). That trained athletes may occasionally die suddenly unrelated to exercise or significant physical activity does not negate this principle.
Task Force reports 2 to 7 of this conference document offer specific recommendations for the eligibility and temporary or permanent disqualification of trained athletes with cardiovascular abnormalities and structural diseases previously implicated in sudden cardiac death (or disease progression). The most common of these conditions in young athletes (less than 35 years of age) are hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), congenital coronary artery anomalies of wrong sinus origin, myocarditis, Marfan syndrome (with aortic dissection), and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (predominantly in Italy) (3–5,11) (Table 1).
Although many of these diseases have been generally regarded as rare, it now appears that HCM is relatively common (1:500 in the general population) (12). In contrast, atherosclerotic coronary artery disease is by far the most common cause of sudden death in older athletes, and relatively uncommon in the young (3,13). We have arbitrarily excluded from consideration other particularly rare potential causes of sudden death, such as heat stroke, bronchial asthma, cerebral hemorrhage, and hematologic disorders.
Other sections of this document address related areas such as preparticipation screening and diagnostic strategies, use of illicit drugs and dietary supplements, ethical and medical-legal considerations for sports disqualification, as well as sudden death due to blunt non-penetrating chest blows in the absence of heart disease (i.e., commotio cordis) (14,15).
Recommendations for disqualification and eligibility
Although recommendations of the 36th Bethesda Conference do not reflect policy of the American College of Cardiology Foundation, they are well considered views of a group of experts convened to address the medical risks imposed by competition on an athlete with a cardiovascular abnormality. The present consensus recommendations were necessarily based largely on individual and collective judgments and the experience of the panel, as well as on the available pertinent scientific data. Indeed, in the process of formulating the recommendations, the panel participants, who are cardiovascular authorities most comfortable with a high level of precision, were often required to confront areas in which there was a paucity of hard evidence and utilize the "art of medicine" in designing recommendations.
It is the premise of the expert panel that firm recommendations for temporary or permanent sports disqualification be confined to individual athletes with probable or conclusive evidence of disease rather than those with only borderline findings or the presumption of a diagnosis. In this way, unnecessary restrictions from sports and the stigma of a cardiac diagnosis in healthy individuals may be minimized. We do recognize, however, that such an approach will inevitably permit an occasional athlete to participate who might otherwise be at some risk. Nevertheless, the level of importance the individual athlete personally attaches to continuing or resuming competitive sports is not regarded as a primary determinant in formulating eligibility recommendations.
The recognition by panel members that all competitive sports do not necessarily involve identical types or intensity of exercise is reflected in the Task Force 8: Classification of Sports. Training demands vary considerably even within the same sport and the intensity of conditioning regimens often exceed that of competition itself. However, it is often difficult to accurately grade such differences in exercise intensity owing to a variety of factors, including differing motivational attitudes and training demands. The demands of competitive sports may place athletes with certain cardiovascular abnormalities in extreme, unusual, and unpredictable environmental conditions (associated with alterations in blood volume, hydration, and electrolytes), over which they have limited control. These circumstances could enhance the risk for potentially lethal arrhythmias and sudden death and unavoidably distort the reliability of individualized and prospective risk stratification. Conversely, it is suspected that for many athletes the removal from their lifestyle of athletic training and competition will reduce risk for sudden death or disease progression.
The recommendations in this report should also be viewed in perspective. Appropriate sports disqualification is only one component for potentially reducing risk, and each relevant cardiovascular disease has its own treatment algorithms, which can include selective implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator in high-risk patients (16).
The present recommendations formulated with respect to allowable levels of sports activity can be regarded as generally conservative. Certainly, this is a prudent posture to assume when the amount of available hard data and evidence is limited in many decision-making areas, as may be the case in portions of the 36th Bethesda Conference document. The panel acknowledges that while available data support the principle that competition in sports is associated with an increased relativerisk for sudden death in the setting of known cardiovascular disease (11), the absolute risk cannot be determined with certainty in an individual patient/athlete, and in fact may be low in certain individuals. However, at present, additional risk-stratifying tools are not available to independently (and more precisely) guide many of these difficult medical decisions. Thus, it is possible that the recommendations of this consensus panel will occasionally cause some athletes to be withdrawn from competition unnecessarily. This is, of course, unfortunate because athletes derive considerable self-assurance, confidence, physical well-being, and, even on occasion, financial security from these activities. Nonetheless, the increased risk of sudden death associated with intense athletic participation is a controllablerisk factor, and the devastating impact of even infrequent sudden deaths in this young population underscores the wisdom of the conservative nature of these recommendations. Indeed, various cultures harbor differing societal views on the individual rights and prerogatives of athletes to persist in their chosen lifestyle, independent of the potential risks involved. In practice, consideration may be given in individual athletes to changing their competitive sport from a prohibited high-intensity activity to a permissible low-intensity one (i.e., usually to class IA). However, changing the position in which an athlete competes (e.g., from running-back to place-kicker in football) to accomplish the same end within high-intensity team sports may prove difficult in practical terms.
Consequently, the 36th Bethesda Conference report is presented here in the context of measured and prudent recommendations—intended neither to be overly permissive nor restrictive—and which should not be regarded as an absolutely rigid dictum. Indeed, the managing physician with particular knowledge regarding a given athlete's cardiovascular abnormality, psychological response to competition, and other medically relevant factors may choose to adopt somewhat different recommendations in selected individuals.
Special considerations
Three considerations relevant to much of the document deserve special consideration. First, medications, such as beta-blockers commonly used to treat a variety of cardiac diseases including systemic hypertension, HCM, long QT syndrome, and Marfan syndrome, are likely to inhibit performance in trained competitive athletes (7). The use of such drugs in athletes cannot be regarded as either a means of affording safety and specific protection against arrhythmias, nor as a primary means for retaining eligibility in vigorous competitive sports. Furthermore, use of beta-blockers is specifically contraindicated in some sports.
Second, the availability of a free-standing automatic external defibrillator at a sporting event should not be considered either as absolute protection against a sudden death event, a prospectively designed treatment strategy for athletes with known cardiovascular disease, or justification for participation in competitive sports that otherwise would be restricted owing to underlying cardiac abnormalities and the risk of life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias.
Third, with the increased employment of the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) it is inevitable that increasing numbers of high-risk athletes with defibrillators will come to recognition. Although differences of opinion exist and little direct evidence is available, the panel asserts that the presence of an ICD (whether for primary or secondary prevention of sudden death) should disqualify athletes from most competitive sports (with the exception of low-intensity, class IA), including those that potentially involve bodily trauma. The presence of an implantable device in high-risk patients with cardiovascular disease should not be regarded as protective therapy and therefore a justification for permitting participation in competitive sports that would otherwise be restricted. This conservative but prudent posture is justified on the basis of the uncertainties associated with ICDs during intense competitive sports, including the possibility that the device will not perform effectively at peak exercise, the likelihood of a sinus tachycardia-triggered inappropriate shock or an appropriate discharge, and the risk for physical injury to the athlete or other competitors as the result of an ICD shock. Also, pacemaker-dependent athletes should not participate in most competitive sports that potentially involve bodily trauma.

text: David Selig #1 Posted May 21, 2012 It's becoming more and more apparent with each episode that the show is whitewashing Tyrion's character and presenting him in a much better light morally than the books up to this point. The TV writers have removed almost all signs of his dark side, his cruel, mean and ruthless streak, which is a big part of him in the books. They've removed: 1) Tyrion letting Tymett go unpunished after Varys told him he murdered a man in KL 2) Tyrion slapping Shae (and he's treating her much better in general in the shwo than in the books) 3) Tyrion breaking Maryllion's fingers by stepping on his hand 4) his dreams of turning the Vale into a wasteland because Lysa pissed him off 5) his participation in Tysha's gang rape It seems that the handing over of the Antler men to Joffrey to execute in his typical sadistic way would not be in the show either. Apart from working on the side of his family (which means supporting Joffrey) which he didn't have much choice about, since I doubt any of the other claimants would've accepted him if he tried to switch sides, I don't recall anything in the series which show Tyrion in negative light morally. I don't like this since it makes Tyrion much less interesting character than in the books. Besides, unless the producers have planned huge changes for the plot in the next seasons, Tyrion will commit some really serious crimes in the future, and it would be hard to make those convincing for the viewers after two seasons of presenting him as a morally pure hero whose only fault is being born in the family of the bad guys.

Cooling Off Period (Investment Arbitration)
by Aravind Ganesh
MPILux Working Paper 7 (2017)
Introduction: 'Cooling off periods', also known as 'waiting periods', are a feature of Bilateral Investment Treaty ('BIT') or state-investor arbitration, whereby parties seeking to initiate arbitrationproceedings are required to hold off for a specified period, during which an amicablesettlement should be attempted. A recent study estimates that some 90% of all BITs containclauses imposing such requirements (Pohl, Mashigo, and Nohen, 2012, 17). Similar practicesare found in other fields such as commercial arbitration, trade law, and the peacefulsettlement of international disputes (see Guyana-Venezuela Border Dispute Bryan Treaties 1913-14).

The fourth of July is a special day. Those of us blessed to have been born in the United States have much to celebrate on that day. I have even more.
It always brings a smile to my face when I think that my parents chose this day to be married. How romantic; kissing the bride while fireworks burst in the sky! For 45 years, the fourth was a day of celebration for my family.
What a surprise that God chose this particular day to take my dad from this earth. My mom had gone almost two years before him, and he was lost without her. As he lay in his hospital bed, knowing the end was near, he smiled and said " I can't wait to see your mother again! God is so good to bring us back together on our anniversary." Through the tears and sobs, my family felt the bittersweet pang of saying goodbye to dad, and rejoiced with him that he would soon see Jesus..and mom!
Life changed in so many ways after dad was gone. Although I was 30 when he died, I still felt like an orphan. Fourth of July was a little more difficult to celebrate. It was a joy to picture mom and dad dancing together again, but I missed them terribly.
Life went on, the way it does even at times when you wish it wouldn't. Our family continued to change and grow, and the fourth of July retained it's significant memories.
What a surprise that God would choose this day to bring my beautiful great-niece into the world! With His characteristic sweetness, He has truly given us a reason to celebrate the fourth of July again.

Charges of rape in West Chester, PA or Southeastern Pennsylvania, regardless of the circumstances of the alleged event, can have serious repercussions on your life. Even an accusation can bring with it negative stigma enhanced by media and general public scrutiny.
This is why it's critical to work with a defense attorney who can help you fight for favorable charges, including dismissed charges, not guilty verdicts, acquittals, and other favorable outcomes. When you have so much at stake, you need to make sure that you are using every tool at your disposal to defend your constitutional rights and future.
Michael J. Skinner is a criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor. This combined experience can prove helpful as you face a prosecution that is intent on using every piece of evidence at their disposal to prove your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, regardless if you are in a situation of false or exaggerated rape charges. You should not rely on just a criminal defense lawyer for these charges. You need a West Chester sex crime defense attorney who is experienced in these types of cases and can address the oftentimes emotionally-charged factors that can influence a jury.
Call (610) 436-1410 or send an online message for a free initial consultation. It is in your best interests to contact a defense attorney as soon as possible. The Skinner Law Firm will be at your side, every step of the way, from pretrial investigations to trial or appeal. Discuss your legal options with Michael J. Skinner and learn more about the system you face, including strategies used by the district attorney's offices in Chester County and Delaware County.
Under this Pennsylvania statute, rape is considered a first-degree felony if a person engages in sex with the complainant (alleged victim):
Rape offenses against children carry distinct penalties in Pennsylvania. If a person commits rape against a child by having sex with a complainant less than 13 years old, he or she can be found guilty of a first-degree felony. This is punishable by up to 40 years in state prison.
If this offense resulted in serious bodily injury of the child, he or she is guilty of a first-degree felony. Rape of a child resulting in serious bodily injury can lead to a maximum sentence of life in prison.
Unless otherwise designated by Pennsylvania statute, rape is a first-degree felony offense. This is punishable by up to $25,000 in fines and up to 20 years in prison.
A person who is found guilty of rape in Pennsylvania may find themselves facing additional penalties. The defendant may receive up to 10 more years in Pennsylvania State Prison and an additional fine up to $100,000 if he or she engages in sex with a complainant who is impaired at the time of the alleged event and unable to appraise or control his or her actions. This impairment is caused by the defendant's use of substances intended to prevent resistance in the complainant through inducement of euphoria, memory loss, or other effects from the substance.
If you are facing charges of rape, it's important to explore your available defense options as soon as possible. Time-sensitive evidence, documents, and testimony are best when gathered early into the case, allowing your attorney to develop a strong defense. During your free consultation with Michael J. Skinner, you will learn more specific information about the charges and situation you face, which is just the first step towards protecting your future and fighting the charges against you.

You finally secured that coveted interview and the mass of butterflies in your stomach won't let you forget it. Pre-interview jitters are normal and expected, but don't let your anxiety make you forget basic rules of etiquette.
Avoid these interview faux pas if you want to get past the hot seat into your new office.
1. "Umm, I'm not sure why
I put that on my resume
is definitely not the right answer. Be able to respond to questions about your resume and your work experience. Practice articulating why you want the job and why you're the best candidate for it. Role-play in front of a mirror or with a friend. Being prepared will pay off…maybe even in the form of your next paycheck.
2. Showing up late
because you were waiting in line at Starbucks is a sure-fire way to get dismissed as a potential hire. Showing up late—or even too early—can automatically ruin any chance of getting off on the right foot. Show up ten minutes before the scheduled time—no earlier, no later.
3. Badmouthing your ex-boss
when asked why you left your past position is TMI! Interviews are not therapy sessions, so sit up straight in your chair and keep the topic strictly professional. Skip the gritty details, and keep your personal opinions to yourself because they will more than likely backfire.
4. Answering your cell phone mid-interview
shows a lack of respect. Before you walk into the office, make sure to turn off your phone, spit out your gum, and throw on a smile. Nothing can shatter your chance for a job like an unexpected phone interruption, gum smacking, or perception of a disgruntled attitude.
5. Flip-flops with a suit don't cancel each other out
to equal an appropriate interview outfit. Your appearance plays a major role in the direction of your interview. Dress standards vary across all industries and organizations, but the common rule of thumb is to dress to impress.
6. Bringing up money.
Although it may seem like the elephant in the room, never be the first to mention money. When it comes to salary, timing is everything and if the timing is off, it can ruin your chances of ever finding out what the number was going to be. Be strategic and wait until the hiring manager opens the gate for this topic first.

There are several types of applications that call for the installation of a wall mounted dehumidifier. The following describes various scenarios whereby an IW25 dehumidifier can be permanently installed on different types of walls including masonry or CMU block.
While the IW25 dehumidifier was originally engineered for multifamily housing, its flexibility of design and unique innovation make it ideal for use in commercial, educational and industrial applications as well. One of the more desirable features of the unit is the tamper-proof front cover which protects a built-in humidistat. The IW25 comes with a special tool that allows facilities personnel to simply remove two security screws for easy access to perform maintenance or unit adjustments while preventing the public from accessing the unit controls. Limiting access to unit controls not only ensures continued operation of the dehumidifier but also protects the property owner or manager from potential liability issues.
Other essential features of the IW25 built in wall dehumidifier include the following:
- at 47 decibels or less, the IW25 is one of the most quiet dehumidifiers on the market
- can be hard-wired or plugged in using the supplied standard 120V plug
- directly drains into existing plumbing and can be hard-piped if required
- humidistat relative humidity (RH) set point is adjustable from 30% to 90%
- efficient operation with average rated power consumption of 370 watts
- automatic re-start after power failures
The IW25 has a capacity of 25 pints per day. According to the American Home Appliance Manufacturer's (AHAM) dehumidifier sizing chart this unit will satisfy supplemental dehumidification requirements for a space up to approximately 1500 square feet experiencing "very damp" conditions.
A few recent examples of wall mounted installations of the IW25 include unconditioned stairwells and classrooms where the use of portable dehumidifiers proved impractical or ineffective. The stairwells in one particular case were constructed using CMU block. Prior to installing the IW25s in the stairwell, the relative humidity typically mirrored ambient conditions. On a few of the more hot and humid days, RH inside the stairwells approached 90%. In addition to the obvious discomfort of those using the stairwells there was also concern that excessively humid air was infiltrating the building through interior door openings.
The building owner was looking for a cost-effective, permanent solution to prevent excessive humidity inside the unconditioned space and contacted Innovative Dehumidifier Systems. Using the surface mounting box which is available as an accessory for the IW25, four dehumidifiers were installed inside two separate stairwells bringing the humidity down to a desired level below 60%. For more details regarding this project you can read the full case study here Senior Housing Stairwell Project.
Another example using the IW25 as a wall mounted dehumidifier in educational facilities applications involved replacing noisy and inefficient portable dehumidifiers. In this particular case, educators voiced various complaints including noise levels, drain lines into classroom sinks and the inevitable accident involving spills. Additionally, portable units were occasionally unplugged rendering them ineffective. Once mounted to the wall, the IW25 performs quietly, safely and efficiently to remove excess moisture from the classroom without interruptions or annoyances.
When evaluating where to install a wall mounted IW25 the following considerations should be taken into account:
- Ensure that provisions are made for bringing power to the unit. In most commercial applications a hardwired dehumidifier is preferable. Click the link below for a short video explaining how this is done using the IW25
o How to hardwire a dehumidifier
- Ensure that provisions are made for draining condensate from the unit. Unlike portable dehumidifiers, the IW25 does not have a holding take which would require emptying. Instead the unit incorporates a gravity drain design. In cases where this is not practical, installers may elect to use a condensate pump to displace condensate from the unit.
In the case of a stairwell, hallway or common area installation take care to ensure the in-wall dehumidifier unit is installed at such a height to prevent people from walking into it. For most classroom installations or in facilities where sound is a concern the unit should be mounted at the back of the room whenever possible.
Once the location has been established the first step is to fasten the galvanized metal surface mounting box securely to the wall. If the application calls for a matching color or custom finish you might want to primer the box before mounting to the wall. Use fasteners appropriate for the composition of the wall. For example, use masonry anchors or tapcons when mounting the box to masonry walls. The weight of the IW25 is approximately 40 pounds.
After the surface mounting box has been fastened, the IW25 must be placed inside the box using the following protocol:
- While holding the IW25 facing the front of the unit, lean the top of the unit toward you
- Insert the bottom of the IW25 into the surface mounting box and pull the bottom of the IW25 toward the front of the box while simultaneously pushing the top of the unit into the box
- Gently lift the IW25 off the bottom of the surface mounting box and align the cabinet flanges with the pre-drilled holes in the box
- Using the screws provided secure the IW25 to surface mounting box and install cover.

Could it be a boot? Could it be footwear? No, its footwear boot! Most likely the greatest shoes trend hitting the traditional an internet-based merchants this past year, shoe boots were everywhere you appear team with florals, skinny jeans and nearly anything.Taller than the usual shoe but shorter than an ankle boot, shoe boots are also called shooties and shoes, so that as pointed out they're going with virtually anything, making that one of the very most versatile shoes styles of history year. As you will find a lot of types of shoe boots its vital that you consider which on most closely fits the body shape because what could look wonderful in your friend might not meet your needs. If you are petite then avoid putting on shoe boots with bare legs and dresses and skirts, theyll stop at the ankles thus making you look shorter put on all of them with jeans, tights or tights rather. If you are tall then youre fortunate since you can put on shoe boots with anything you want, so work that trend ladies! Listed here are the various types of shoe boots and just how you are able to put on them
Full shoe boots
Much like an ankle boot although not as tall, this kind of shoe boot is really easy to put on come rain or shine and can virtually opt for anything.
Peep to shoe boots
A very cute type of shoe boot, the peep toes have a little glamour making a pleasant alternative for any evening around town in addition to getting a leg-lengthening effect.
Strappy shoe boots
If youd prefer much more of footwear than the usual sandal for any evening out then strappy shoe boots is going to be perfect and could be worn by anybody with anything.
And youll find these style tips really helpful
Bring your shoe boots right through to fall and winter by putting on with tights or tights Dont put on shoe boots with bare legs if you are short, itll only cause you to look shorter team with skinny jeans, tights or tights rather. Peep foot shoe boots can create the illusion of longer legs. A set of plain black shoe boots having a small heel would be the most versatile, Dont buy shoe boots having a distinct style itll make sure they are difficult to put on. Put on shoe boots having a floral dress to produce a bohemian look. You are able to put on shoe boots under pants and jeans too, so ditch the ankle boots and put on these special gems rather.

How does iMPACT perform an "Initialize Chain" command without knowing what devices are in the chain and the IR lengths of the devices?
For more iMPACT Release Notes and other Configuration Related Articles, see (Xilinx Answer 34104).
When the TAP (Test Access Port) of a JTAG-compliant device is reset, the default instruction (either "Bypass" or "IDCODE") is pushed into the data register. By moving the TAP of all devices in the chain to SDR and clocking "0's" on TMS, iMPACT reads in a long string that consists of all of the IDCODES in a chain. Xilinx recommends holding TDI High during this operation.
Each Xilinx device has a manufacturer ID in the first 8 bits of the IDCODE and each IDCODE is 32 bits long. This is the data iMPACT is using to determine the devices in the chain.
Non-Xilinx devices can be added into a chain and may appear as unknown devices after an "Initialize Chain". The software will also allow Non-Xilinx to be added into the chain manually. It is best to run this operation by specifying the Instruction Register Length for the device as opposed to adding a third party BSDL file. The instruction register length is all that is required to add another device into a JTAG chain.
For Debugging it is good to know that TDI is not used to shift in any instructions during this operation. So, if Initialize Chain passes but other operations fail it may be an issue with the TDI input connection.

Good morning!
I am much more upbeat today, after all it is Friday and I get to see my husband in 2 more day-- woohoo!! I am sitting here watching a show about felting on DIY and soon Knitty Gritty comes on and they are both great for relaxing.
I found some links to add to this blog-- hopefully I can figure out how to do that again. I am still learning. Meanwhile, here they are on this actual message! I know that works. KNITFOROTHERS is the first one I found this morning. Really nice blog and they have a special knit -a-thon basically for 2 weeks around Thanksgiving.
And the MOSSY COTTAGE blog has patterns, and info on the project where people knit for kids in Mongolia. Here is one for a warm, woollen vest for 3-4 year olds There are just so many great charity projects out there and the need never seems to be quenched-- it goes on and on and on-- giving all of us the opportunity to use our talents to help our Heavenly Father's children all over the world.
I have some photos of my dogs to share today, and a couple from Crafting Angels meeting a couple of days ago... enjoy!
They are into wrestling these days now that Cookie is bigger! She has grown so much in one week! Boots has the upper paw here, and Cookie does in the photo below! They are really enjoying each others company now. =)
Here are photos from Crafting Angels this week. We got 80 newborn kits made if you can believe that! And we are planning to make some Christmas ones in November-- reds, whites and greens, for hats, vests, booties, and 32" square blankets, and some blue and white Hanukkah ones too.
And we would LOVE some help from all of you want to help! Just let me know ok?
We need 2 gallon 'ziplock' type bags if you have any to spare. =)
This lady quilting is our wonderful Joye H-- who is my right hand woman for CA set ups and functioning these days!! In the background you can see some of the afghans Grandma Bingham has recently put together with squares sent by members of my Charity Challenge 2006 group!
The weather has definitely cooled off here in the desert, as we are at 60 F or so in the early AM and only 80 or so later in the day. That might sound outrageous to you, but here it is sweet relief from the 115+ all summer. It's gorgeous.
It does remind me though that the time has come to make knittens and so on for homeless shelters, the reservations, orphanages... I have patterns galore on this page:
Bev's WINTER PATTERNS
Bev's CHILDREN'S PATTERNS
Here is an easy 2 needle mitten pattern that is featured on my site, but sometimes gets lost in the shuffle of so many pages! If you want to make some of those and don't know where to send them, Crafting Angels will get them off to LDS Humanitarian for you.
Mail them to:

As we write this, CubaDupa 2018 is just a shade over one month away, so here's what Capital! Steampunk is doing, and where to be (and when) so you can join in.
The festival runs from midday till late on Saturday 24 March and midday to 5pm on Sunday 25 March. Capital! Steampunk is involved in three different events.
Jules Verne's From the Earth to the Moon tells the story of the Baltimore Gun Club's successful mission to build a gun powerful enough to send men into space. NZ Opera's The Eagle Has Landed is a short musical piece in which Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin arrive on the Moon to find Verne's characters still there. Did we say 'send men into space'? Surprises await …
They'd like our help. Each performance will start with a promenade of steampunks from Ghuznee Street to the venue in the Hannah Courtyard in Leeds Street. Effectively, we are the Baltimore Gun Club, marching to see our heroes off, so bring your favourite ray gun!
You can take part in as many or as few promenades and performances as you wish. The promenades are at 1.15, 2.15 and 3.15pm both days. The performances last for about 20 minutes and steampunks can perform as extras in the crowd scenes. Meet outside 55 Ghuznee Street, a few doors along towards Glover Park from the intersection with Cuba Street, 10 minutes before we leave for each performance.
For those interested in taking part in the performance, there's a dress rehearsal at 10.30am, Saturday 24th March, in the Hannah Courtyard. This will be filmed for archival purposes. Don't worry if you can't make the rehearsal; many of us will be doing more than one promenade so there should always be somebody who can tell you what to expect.
Teapot Racing
It wouldn't be CubaDupa without teapot racing – register your teapot here. This year we're out on Dixon Street again, near the Dixon Street Deli.
Racing will be from 3.30 to 5.30pm on Saturday 24 March and we'll be setting up the course and welcoming racing teapots from 3pm. When you arrive with your teapot you'll be given a number in the running order so you'll have an idea when you'll need to be ready to race. As you'll see from the above, there's a slight clash with the last performance of The Eagle Has Landed; you'll be able to join Saturday's final promenade but if you want to watch or take part in the show it's probably best if you pick one of the other five performances over the weekend.
A new feature of this year's teapot racing will be the availability of a couple of 'have a go' racing teapots for the public to try. They're basic, but they work. We'll have to strictly limit the numbers who can try them out (the batteries will only last so long), but if you haven't yet taken the plunge into making your own racing teapot, this might give you a feel for what it's all about.
Tea Duelling
Once again we'll be on the small stage in the middle of Cuba Mall, ready to help settle any dispute that comes along. The Colonel and Mrs. Hudson (the younger) will be officiating, starting at 3.30pm on Sunday 25 March and continuing until we run out of duellists, biscuits or hot water. Or until 4pm; whichever comes first.
Come along to cheer the duellists (or be one yourself) and provide more splendid spectacle for the CubaDupa crowds.
In a nutshell …
The Eagle Has Landed promenades and performances – Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th, 1.15, 2.15 and 3.15pm. Meet outside 55 Ghuznee Street 10 minutes before each promenade starts.
Teapot Racing – Saturday 24th 3.30 – 5.30pm. Deliver your racing teapot to the pits outside Dixon Street Deli from 3pm.
Tea duelling – Sunday 25th, 3.30 – 4pm on the Cuba Mall small stage.

The previous game in the Elder Scrolls series, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, came out to rave reviews back in 2006, proving popular enough to be re-released on the PS3 in March of 2007, and a Game of the Year edition in September of that year. After this, fans began to eagerly anticipate the arrival of the next game in the franchise.
The 2010 Spike Video Game Awards revealed a trailer for the upcoming game, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim,but perhaps more importantly, a release date of November 11, 2011, was revealed as well. Since then, details have been surfacing regarding the upcoming game, such as what the story may be, the combat system, and the redesigned menus.
Most recently, a Danish game magazine by the name of Game Reactor featured an interview with Bethesda that included two new screens that show more of the upcoming game.
This screenshot continues to show off the impressive graphics of the upcoming title, looking very much like a real pond one would find while exploring the nearby woods. This could also be connected to the already released screenshot of the town in the mountains, though this is just speculation.
This one shows what is most likely a tavern of sorts that a player would find in a town they would travel to. Would this just be a place for your character to rest up after a long battle, or is this place more integral to the plot of the game? We'll just have to wait and see. Even the barmaid seen here could become an important part of the game, depending on how things progress.
With all the speculation surrounding the upcoming game, one has to wonder about all the theories created in regards to this title. Is the story going to herald the end of the franchise, as has been hinted at? Are you guys looking forward to how your actions will affect the tale surrounding your character? Or are you just wanting to take on some dragons?
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is set to come out on November 11, 2011, for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

Theron to star in American Express
Charlize Theron is in talks to produce and star in indie movie American Express.
Australian stuntman-turned-director Nash Edgerton is attached to direct the project, which will be seeking finance at Cannes, TheWrap reported.
Plot details are currently unknown, but Charlize would play the lead role as well as produce through her company Denver & Delilah.
The South African star began producing in 2003 with Monster, the movie which she went on to win the best actress Oscar for. She most recently acquired the rights to produce a movie version of Susannah Cahalan's bestselling book Brain On Fire: My Month Of Madness, which will star Dakota Fanning.
Nash moved from stunt coordinating to directing short films, before helming critically acclaimed Australian thriller The Square.

Mary Jane Pozydaev – Fielder
"I work pretty long hours regularly with Sigma, but the job flexibility that Sigma offers makes working those long hours very worth it. I travel a lot so it is very easy to schedule my trips around my work. I was extremely interested in Sigma when I read the job description for my position. I was intrigued by the design work and the field work. I liked the fact that I'd be able to switch up my days and work in the field as well as at home. Every day would be different. I don't enjoy being in an office all day, so this job has been ideal. I am much more productive this way so it is great for both me and Sigma. I went to school and studied civil engineering, so everything at Sigma was new to me when I was hired. I learned everything from scratch and that's a huge reason I was interested in joining the team. I was able to learn the way Sigma operated and that allows me to do my job exactly how they expect it. They offer great opportunities and you can grow professionally pretty quickly and work your way up."

Hannah Trevino – Project Administrator
"Only being 7 months in, I am still learning a lot. The work environment is not extremely formal, which is great. Everyone works very well together and has developed a comfortable working environment where people can joke around with one another. I love Quality Control – filling in the blanks, making things complete. It's very gratifying being able to solve everyday problems and to be challenged. Even though the process of my day is usually the same, each job that I work on is different, so it keeps things new and interesting. There will never be a time when I am bored without anything to do. I work more hours at this job than I have at any other job in my past, however, because Sigma offers employees the ability to shift their schedule, it makes for an ideal work-life balance. I credit Sigma for being a very diverse company. The aspects of this company allow me specifically to use my Cultural Communications degree in my everyday work life. I can use my knowledge to figure out the best way to communicate with people."

Brandon Bondy – Project Manager
"The number one thing that I love most about working for Sigma are the people. Sigma hires good people and I think that is their best strength. We have a great recruiting department. I can't stress enough how much more I enjoy my job because of the group of people I get to interact with. It makes all the difference. I would love more interaction! I really enjoy the technology aspect of everything as well. I work from home a lot so having the ability to do video chats is a great thing. This job definitely keeps me on my toes which is a plus. The personnel aspect is a constant learning process; learning how to deal with problems, how to handle different personalities and backgrounds. I can't forget to mention the company golf outing…that's always a good time. Fun competition between SIS and SNS."

Jay Carpenter – Project Manager
"After working at Sigma for 13 years now, there is a lot I love about my job. Knowing that I make a difference in the community is a big reason why I love what I do. Any new job that we have here makes a difference in people's lives, whether the job has big or small improvements. Sigma has created such a great culture and working environment. The people here are great. Even when you are stressed and having a bad day, everyone here has your back. Sigma's work-life balance is also very ideal. They are very flexible when it comes to scheduling my work into my life. As long as the work is getting done, we can shift and rearrange our schedules as need be. Moving forward, I want to start to be more of a manager on a corporate level and I want to bring other employees up to a project manager level. With a company that is growing daily, those goals are very attainable."

Josh Konczal – CAD Drafter
"Sigma hires good people. Everyone is nice and easy to get along with. My supervisor (Bob) has a great open door policy and I can go to him with anything. What I really appreciate is if a mistake is made somewhere, Bob is very quick to let me know what it is, how to fix it, and how to prevent it from happening again. His employees are never in the dark. Flexibility is a big job perk with Sigma, and overtime is available if needed. This makes for a great work-life balance. I had some CAD practice before coming to Sigma, but I learned a lot more once I got here. The pre-construction meetings that we have helped me a lot to understand the industry better."

A month after Gov.
Ms. Palin, the Republican vice-presidential nominee, flew to Mr. McCain's ranch in
The amount of time and staff power being devoted to this was evidence of concern among Mr. McCain's associates that Ms. Palin's early triumphs — a well-received convention speech, her drawing of big crowds — have been overtaken by a series of setbacks, creating higher stakes for her in the debate Thursday with the Democratic nominee for vice president, Senator
"I think she has pretty thoroughly — and probably irretrievably — proven that she is not up to the job of being president of the
"And this is a moment of real high
Ms. Palin, of
Her halting interview with
"I think the Katie Couric interview shows that she needs to be briefed more on certain aspects," said Jim Greer, the Republican chairman in
Polling suggests that the number of Americans who think she is not fit to be president has increased since her introduction to the country last month. A number of conservative columnists and thinkers have publicly turned against her, or criticized Mr. McCain for choosing her, including George Will,
Mr. Frum noted the difficulty that
Several Republicans said that all of this could ultimately play to Ms. Palin's benefit, lowering expectations for her so much that a mediocre performance in the debate could be hailed as a success.
"Thanks to the mainstream media, quite a low expectation has been created for her performance," said
And Mr. McCain's aides disputed the expressions of concern and said that if anything, the barrage of criticism and the performance in the few television interviews she has done gave her a low bar to clear in the debate. "I seriously hope that people continue to underestimate the most popular governor in America and a woman who speaks to the heart of America's economic angst," said Nicolle Wallace, a senior adviser to Mr. McCain.
And Mr. McCain, appearing with Ms. Palin in another interview with Ms. Couric on Monday night, offered a hearty endorsement. "I've seen underestimation before," he said. "I'm very proud of the excitement that Governor Palin has ignited with our party and around this country. It is a level of excitement and enthusiasm, frankly, that I haven't seen before."
Ms. Palin is getting ready for the debate at a time of enormous uncertainty about a highly complicated issue, the unfolding crisis on Wall Street, which makes preparing for the face off especially hard.
And the McCain campaign appears to be leaving nothing to chance. Ms. Palin will spend her preparation time at Mr. McCain's vacation compound in Sedona, with her husband and children. She is practicing for the debate with Steve Beigun, a former staff member of Mr. Bush's
"This debate will probably determine her political persona for the rest of the campaign," said Saul Anuzis, the Republican chairman of
Katon Dawson, the Republican chairman of
"You don't have this kind of negative, media attack without a question mark being put up," he said. "She's going to have a chance to erase that question mark."
"She has the opportunity to undo some of the damage with a very strong debate performance," he said. "That's plausible. We'll just have to wait and see."
The rapid change in fortunes has led some Republicans to question the decision by Mr. McCain's advisers to restrict her exposure to unscripted settings — town-hall-style meetings, news conferences or interviews — saying such events would have helped her prepare her for such high-profile interviews as the one with Ms. Couric, and the debate.
"I disagree with the campaign's approach," said Rick Wilson, a Republican consultant. "I think they ought to toss her into the deep end from the outset; let her get it over quickly. Everything else after that is, you've seen the elephant."
Ms. Palin has traveled with a briefing team since Sept. 10. Two people close to the campaign, addressing her difficulties, said she had been stuffed with facts as if preparing for an oral exam and had become nervous and unnatural in the few interviews.
Advisers said she was a diligent worker and was frequently up until the small hours of the morning in her hotel room trying to cram as much information as possible before the debate.
"I think she has to be careful not to be overprogrammed for the debate," said Robert T. Bennett, the

I see you.
You with the big, bold message that will change the world, burning inside you, aching to get out.
You with the big dreams who instead of moving mountains is bogged down in the sludge of not knowing what to do next.
You with the big mission that you're finding hard to articulate, so your blog, your website, and your social media content fall flat; and worse, don't feel authentically like YOU.
But what if it could be easy… effortless… and dare I say… BEAUTIFUL? Even better, what if you could execute all of that clarity in a matter of weeks AND get a soul-nourishing retreat all at the same time?
A mid-week retreat giving you everything you need to launch your
big, beautiful, soul-aligned brand
September 19-21, 2017
You'll spend 2.5 days, digging into the heart of your brand, nestled in the beautiful wilderness of British Columbia. You'll have photo, video, and coaching sessions that capture your brand's story, meditations to keep you focused and high-vibe, and a new moon ceremony to start aligning the energy of the new direction your business is taking.
You'll have lots of downtime for relaxation and reflection, and you'll be snuggled down into cozy cabins at the beautiful Nectar Yoga B&B. Everything's taken care of for you… your coaching, photo and video shoots (and the hair and make up that goes with them), meals, and more. You'll receive ample support, before, during, and after the retreat, in the most nurturing, soul-enriched ways.
Re-branding can be a vulnerable process, especially when you're shifting the conversation beyond what things simply look like, and really exposing your heart into your work. You will be lovingly supported throughout this process, not only by us, but by the small tribe of heart-centred women who are on the journey alongside you.
Within a few weeks of your return, you'll receive everything you need to launch your new brand, so that it feels like a beautiful, natural extension of YOU. You'll have content for online, new photos, a short video, but also launch graphics and a strategy plan to help you make maximum impact with your new content.
Sounds good, right? There's only one catch…
We only have space for 4 women.
While scarcity is a common marketing tactic, we've chosen an intimate venue that allows us to give a VIP experience at a friends and family price point. Simply put, if we had more participants, we wouldn't have the ability to spend as much time with each of you, and that's just not the experience we want to create.
Here's a breakdown of everything included…
- Your brand storytelling session
- Branded photoshoot consultation
- Brand Guidelines & Moodboard
At the Retreat
- Photo session including hair and make up
- Video shoot including content footage, and voice over recording
- Strategy session for implementing your new brand
- All meals and shared accommodations
- 30+ digital photos, including headshots and content shots
- 60-90 second video with voiceover and action footage
- Typographic logo in varied formats, including Vector
- 5 Branded social media graphics and templates
- Launch graphics and checklist to build anticipation before you launch
Total Value: Over $5,000
How much for all this goodness?
Your Investment is only $3,333
(or 3 payments of $1,177)
(All prices listed in Canadian dollars.)
Refund Policy
Because of the intimate nature of this retreat, we have only a handful of spots available making us rely on your commitment to attend. While we're unable to refund your ticket, it IS transferrable before any work has taken place, so you're able to send a friend in your place.
This is your invitation to mix business, with pleasure. Because let's be honest, when we're doing it right, business is a whole lot of fun, isn't it? Sure, you could hire this out online, and spend time in a stuffy studio taking stiff photos and then go on a retreat for fun… but how likely is that? Many of our clients expressed their need for change long before they get around to working with us. With this retreat, we've packed in enough downtime so that you're not just expressing your soul, you're nourishing it.
We've made sure that you're getting all of the essentials, including video which many people have considered a luxury in the past. Video has the power to tell stories in the most profound way. It has the best reach, and the best engagement on social media platforms, and is the quickest, easiest way to form an emotional connection with your dream clients.
Get Branded on Bowen is for you if…
- You are a coach, healer, teacher, visionary… someone working to make the world a better place.
- You dream up big ideas and you're ready to take action to bring them to life.
- You're looking for ways to infuse more YOU into your brand, so marketing feels cozy, intimate, and effortless.
- You've been in business for awhile, and you're ready to get more visible so you can step out and be seen in a bigger, more authentic way.
- You're ready to get clarity of your purpose, attract your dream clients and start making a bigger impact
Sure, there's 20+ years experience between us, but who the heck are we?

As part of new waste and recycling services gradually introduced to over 115,000 households in Aberdeenshire since November 2013, glass is no longer collected at the kerbside.
It can still be recycled at recycling centres and points across the region and Aberdeenshire Council is currently installing more glass recycling points, making glass recycling more convenient.
Previously glass separated by colour was collected from the kerbside and sent to be recycled into glass bottles and jars.
This no longer happens under the new arrangements because of difficulties separating different colours of glass to a high enough standard.
To achieve a high-quality recycling system, the Scottish Government advises against mixing different colours of glass, preferring to keep a system of colour separation which allows glass to be recycled into bottles again and again.
Glass for recycling in Aberdeenshire should now be taken to one of more than 200 recycling centres and points where it can be collected separately, allowing for high-quality glass recycling.
This shouldn't mean an unneccesary or lengthy journey – individuals, neighbourhoods and communities can request local 'neighbourhood glass recycling points' to increase convenience.
These can be either public, on-street facilities or off-street to share between local residents.
They are often smaller in scale than traditional recycling points; neighbourhood points are a little bigger than domestic wheeled recycling bins and are designed to blend in.
Aberdeenshire Council's Head of Protective Services and Waste Management, Ian Robertson, said: "Recycling Points are usually in convenient locations such as supermarket or public car parks.
"If possible, please take your glass bottles and jars with you when you go out to avoid making a special journey.
"Recycling boxes previously issued to households can also be used to store the glass.
"We understand that many people won't drive, or prefer not to visit a local recycling point, so we're happy to offer neighbourhood facilities where residents want them."
If you think local glass recycling points could benefit your community, please call Wasteline on 0845 600 3 900 for more details.

Hey folks,
I'm cooking up some new blog posts for this highly neglected blog (turns out publishing book makes you busy – huh, who knew?). In the mean time, I have a new article over on the Peachpit site — an expanded version of The Inspiration Bookshelf.
Also – super excited about a workshop I'm teaching in North Carolina on June 22nd. I'm doing a day-long Design For How People Learn seminar for the ASTD-RTA (Research Triangle Area) group.
Really pleased because this is the first opportunity to have a whole class based on the book material, and it's been really fun to figure out how to use the book principles in the design of the workshop itself.
Early bird registration goes until this Friday (June 8th), and it's a bargain at $149 (Regular rate $179 / Late $219). You can get more information here.
Here's the class description:
Julie Dirksen ASTD-ICE presenter will be facilitating her newest workshop which is based on her book "Design for How People Learn" on June 22, 2012. This interactive full-day workshop will dive into designing instruction that will illicit behavior change. Julie has blended her background in instructional design, game-based learning, UX design and behavior change to develop a designing and implementing processes for usable learning. Her book and lunch are included in the workshop pricing.
Learning and development shouldn't be about helping people know more; it should be about helping people do more. In particular, certain behaviors are more challenging to change than others, and we need a new toolbox for helping people make those changes.
That means, as learning and development professionals, we need to know all we can about designing for behavior change.
Learn how to:
- Match the right intervention up with your learning need
- Use principles of neuroscience and cognitive psychology attract and maintain attention and engagement
- Create a learning path that actually develops learners' skills and abilities, rather than just deliver knowledge
- Create environments that make behavior change sustainable

No Apologies Double IPAJuly 1, 2012
Blue Point Brewing Co.
Patchogue, NY
Crafted in small batches from European malts and American hops. An earthy hop aroma is followed by a pleasant caramel sweetness. Four hop varieties round out this balanced beer.
There are oysters, and then there are the legendary Blue Points, Crassostrea virginica, with so much more flavor you'd hardly recognize them as the same species. The last few East Coast IPAs I tasted were good—Blue Point is exceptional. We enjoyed it with our local Olympias, Ostrea lurida, but preferred the intense floral, citrus and conifer tones wrapped around a solid malt structure, with foods of more substance like a waygu steak, stuffed with lobster meat, on a sauce of mushrooms, shallots, celery, and peppers slowly sautéed in butter.
- Charles Finkel
Pours swell with a fullness to a glug glug glug. Listen to your beer. Heady on top of a golden glow. Full body, malty with sweet notes. Hop flavors swirl counterclockwise hurricane, but there's no damage, like the satishying and welcome calm of the eye of a cyclonic IPA. Well balanced and intrepid. East coast West Coast? Who can tell the difference? Great full flavored mouthfeel. Great with anchovy peppered pizza? Grilled bluefish. Wonderful punctuation at the end of the experience hops. Thank you, Blue Point.
