I am a reluctant runner and have a history of not wonderful knees that have kept me from even considering running as being something that I would ever enjoy. However, in an effort to shape up, I actually decided to give it a shot. The most important part of running to keep you happy and healthy is a sturdy pair of good running shoes. Fortunately for me, Saucony hooked me up with the ProGrid Guide 3.0 to help me get started. I made sure to visit my local running store first to make sure they fit correct and then I was off and running. Literally.
Click here to read about my initial thoughts about the Saucony ProGrid Guide 3.0 for Women and to hear about how I'm putting them through their paces.

Blazingly fast speeds. Chart-topping benchmark test scores. Over 20 percent faster than other systems on video-encoding tests. Sci-fi design.
Heat issues. Poor battery life. Pricey.
Bottom Line
Aside from its heat issues, this Alienware notebook is definitely cool, with blazingly fast performancethanks to its Core 2 Duo mobile processorand a design that's out of this world.
editor's note: this article was corrected on 8/29/06 based on information from alienware. the original name for this laptop that the company supplied us withaurora m5550was incorrect. the review has been updated with the correct name, the area-51 m5550.
alienware makes some of the coolest-looking laptops in the market, but the company has usually been one of the last to get its hands on the latest and greatest componentsespecially those from intel. until now, that is. having been bought by dell has its privileges, and the area-51 m5550, one of the first notebooks to receive the latest intel core 2 duo mobile cpu (code-named "merom"), perfectly illustrates these benefits. the laptop's 2.33-ghz intel core 2 duo t7600 processor is the fastest one available so far, but this performance-driven media laptop is hot in more ways than one.
the notebook's black protruding edges resemble the upper part of a rib cage, giving it the profile of an extraterrestrial being. of course, the m5550 wouldn't be a true alienware notebook without a muscle-car paint job, and the glossy silver coating is another shining point for this laptop. you'll find another glossy coating literally on top of the 15.4-inch widescreen. i noticed the detail and excellent color saturation when watching movies, editing digital photos, and playing games, though i would have liked to see a higher resolution than 1,280-by-800.
the m5550's keyboard depresses a little deeper than, say, that of an ibm thinkpad z61m, though this didn't significantly detract from my typing experience. like the hp pavilion dv2000z, the m5550 features a handy touchpad-disabling button, located right above its responsive touchpad. unfortunately, alienware fails to emulate hp's quiet mouse buttons, and the m5550's loud clicking noises might annoy the person sitting next to you.
with so much power under the hood, the m5550 had some trouble keeping the heat down. i noticed this with the winbook t231, which had a 2.16-ghz core 2 duo t7400 cpu. both notebooks have fans in the base to pump hot air out through their side vents. when i used an infrared thermometer to measure the heat, i found that area-51 m5550's temperature reached 114 degrees fahrenheita little cooler than the winbook system's 120 degrees, but still quite warm. the gateway m465-e, which has the same cpu as the winbook, runs cooler (though, at 103 to 109 degrees, not by much) than both the alienware and winbook laptops.
speed-wise, the m5550's performance is very promising. it produced some of the most impressive numbers i've seen on our sysmark 2004 se tests, with overall scores 5 to 8 percent better than those of computers with the fastest intel core duo for mobile systems, such as the dell xps m1710 and the asus w2jb. it helped that alienware also slipped in 2gb of system ram, as opposed to the 1gb found on the winbook t231. you should see slight improvements in adobe photoshop rendering as well. the m5550 completed my scripts in 1 minute 2 secondssome of the fastest numbers i've seen from any notebook.
video-editing professionals and hd enthusiasts have the most to gain from the intel core 2 duos. indeed, the m5550's video-encoding numbers show speeds of over 20 percent faster than the dell m1710 and the asus w2jb. unfortunately, battery life suffers greatly as a result of all that power. on mobilemark 2005 tests, the m5550 lasted for a meager 1 hour 52 minutes. though the power-management features of the core 2 duo for mobile chips should theoretically save on battery consumption, the chip does consume more power than its predecessor, the core duo mobile cpu. and as the m5550 came with a 48-wh battery, its low mobilemark scores make some sense. still, this is meant to be more of a deskbound media and gaming machine that than a truly portable unit, so for many, the short battery life may not be a major issue.
gamers should keep in mind that although the m5550 does have an nvidia geforce go 7600 graphics card (with discrete memory), that's not the best chipset for gaming. the intel core 2 duos did better on doom 3 and splinter cell tests than the m1710 with the core duo processor, and you'll see improvements over core duo machines as long as you keep the resolution under 1,600-by-1,200. for the most part, gaming quality rests on the graphics chipset more than the processor. that's why the m1710, using the nvidia geforce go 7900 gtx graphics card and either the intel core duo or intel's core 2 duo, is my top choice for a gaming laptop.
alienware laptops are frequently priced at a premium, and at $2,799 direct, the alienware area-51 m5550 is no exception. and now that the company is under dell's umbrella, it will no longer be the last to come out with the fastest chips. thanks to the intel core 2 duo processor, the m5550 is an unruly combination of heavenly speed, hellish heat, and all-too-earthbound battery life.
see how the alienware area-51 m5550 measures up to similar systems in our side-by-side laptop comparison chart.

William Hill and UNIT9 production studio, experts in creating disruptive technology, have come together to create the world's first product delivering a live sports event in virtual reality for customers.
'Get In The Race' is a revolutionary product allowing users to experience a live horse race in a 3D virtual environment. Currently at the prototype stage, the product was launched on Monday, 11 May as part of the Digital Shoreditch Festival, of which William Hill is a sponsor.
Those attending the panel session were able to experience from the jockey's perspective the 18.10 race on 18 February 2015 on the all-weather track at Kempton Park. Using data collected with GPS trackers placed on the horses in that race, the MVP recreated the race with Unity 3D engine and CGI virtual reality.
'Get In The Race' features a 'Head Up Display', which users can activate when looking down at their horse, displaying its heart rate, stride length, distance remaining and race position. The experience is completed with a re-engineered Oculus Rift Jockey Helmet, which users wear while sitting on the back of a polygraphic horse installation, to better enjoy their chosen jockey's view. View Unit9's video about the development of 'Get In The Race'.
The final version of the 'Get In The Race' product will allow customers to experience live horse races in a 3D virtual environment, "sitting" on the horse they have backed and watching every twist and turn from the jockey's perspective. Using the latest GPS technology to recreate the race as live and built using 3D graphics which mimic the actual race track, the product pulls in real-time data about the horse so that users see a live race from an entirely new point of view. Customers will only need a smartphone and Google Cardboard device (costing less than £8) to enjoy this revolutionary 3D experience.
Jamie Hart, Director of Innovation & Customer Experience said: "We are very excited about this MVP and our partnership with UNIT9. We have enjoyed developing this product together and are proud to launch it at Digital Shoreditch. 'Get in the Race' is the first time racing fans can experience this level of virtual reality, watching every twist and turn from the jockey's point of view. Customers will feel as if they were in the race itself."
"The time is ripe for VR to disrupt the live sports category," added Henry Cowling, UNIT9 VR Creative Director. "With products like Google Cardboard and Samsung Gear VR becoming readily available, consumers are increasingly familiar with the technology and are hungry for more. UNIT9 helps businesses, like our partners William Hill, to innovate with emerging technology trends."

Ted Matkom's job bounces between both ends of Milwaukee's social spectrum, from opening a high-end downtown hotel at the former Pabst Brewing Co. site to encouraging residents in central city neighborhoods to unite behind common goals.
The Wisconsin market president for developer Gorman & Co. Inc., Oregon, Wis., is involved in the seemingly distant endeavors with equal enthusiasm. He oversaw development of the 90-room Brewhouse Inn & Suites, which opened in April at The Brewery in Milwaukee, and he is leading the rehab of 200 foreclosed houses in Milwaukee's central city. About 90 percent of the houses are rented to women and their families, he said.
Matkom said his biggest unmet goal is to unite residents in the areas where Gorman is renovating homes to form tight-knit neighborhoods with shared goals. Matkom said he is not trying to lead, but rather organizing meetings, setting up the coffee and doughnuts, and stepping back.
"One of the biggest surprises I encountered was the true difficulty of community building and community organization," Matkom said. "Every person has a different agenda and a different goal of how they want their community to look. Everyone wants stability, no crime and rising property values. But there are a million different ways to get there if you ask a million different people. What I have yet to do, and my goal is to do, is to create a community from our scattered site developments."
A conversation on Matkom's endeavors churns up a seemingly endless list. He has 10 years of experience as an attorney, where his work included supporting Columbia St. Mary's expansion of its East North Avenue campus in Milwaukee. After joining Gorman & Co. as general counsel, he traveled to work on projects in Arizona, Mississippi and Illinois.
In Wisconsin, he served eight years on the board of Menomonee Valley Partners Inc., the business group behind the rehabilitation of the once-blighted area into a booming industrial district. From there, he transitioned to serve as president of the 30th Street Industrial Corridor Corp. in northwest Milwaukee.
"I thought the 30th Street corridor was kind of the next frontier of redevelopment," Matkom said. "It turned out there was a perfect synergy between trying to foster economic development in the 30th Street corridor and trying to foster stabilization in foreclosed, ravaged neighborhoods surrounding the corridor."
Matkom and Gorman's housing rehab is concentrated in neighborhoods around the 87-acre former Tower Automotive site, which the city has bought and rebranded as the Century City business park. Matkom is halfway through the fifth phase of the housing effort, each with about 40 housing units.
But there's a job training component to those projects. After all, Matkom's hat rack includes a position on the Milwaukee Area Workforce Investment Board Inc.
For the housing rehab, Gorman hired Northcott Neighborhood House as a subcontractor. The Milwaukee nonprofit's Youth Build program trains 18- to 24-year-olds in construction. Gorman created 28 jobs for Northcott workers through each of the housing rehab's five phases.
"We were hoping those real-life experiences would help bolster their resumes to go out and find a job in, quote-unquote, the real world," Matkom said. "What happened, which was a great story, however a little inconvenient for us, was it actually was successful. People were being hired away."
Currently, Matkom is working with the Northwest Side Community Development Corp. to build a tech school and 43 apartments north of the Century City site. That project, like much of Gorman's housing work, will compete for state affordable housing tax credits.
Matkom and the Northwest Side CDC previously collaborated on the award-winning Villard Square, a combination library and affordable apartment project at North 34th Street and West Villard Avenue. Howard Snyder, executive director of the CDC, said Matkom and Gorman, though in a profit-making business, take on projects more commonly associated with the nonprofit world.
"He knows there's a profitable thing to do and a right thing to do, and you don't find many people with that kind of skill and talent who want to work in these kinds of neighborhoods," Snyder said. "We're even looking at the next two projects down the road."
Asked how his professional background — which started with legal and political science degrees — branched into community development, Matkom dusted off another role he played in the past. He said the two really gelled for him when he served on the Whitefish Bay village board for four years, starting in 2000.
"A lot of land-use issues went through, which really showed to me the importance of good development that was linked with community goals and the participation of the community citizens," Matkom said. "That whole thing really has resonated with me throughout my career since then and it has really been the core of what I want to accomplish as a developer."

Food Photography
Even though my favourite thing to take pictures of are people, sometimes you just need a change of scenery. Over the last year or so I have been taking a whole lot of food related photos. Partly for a foodie blog I run with a friend (Klaus and Fritz), and partly for different cafe, wine and baking clients. It's different, and I have a whole new level of appreciation for stylists (it's hard, y'all!) but spending days among amazing looking (and amazing tasting) pastries is such a treat! Both for the eyes, and afterwards the tummy. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

If the placement of your carts in the street will obstruct traffic, then it should instead be placed at the end of your driveway, on the curb or at the edge of your yard beside the street.
Please make sure that the cart is level, the arrows on your cart's lid points toward the street and your cart is at least three feet from all fixed objects such as mailboxes, trees, street lights or parked vehicles. Please leave a three foot gap between carts placed next to each other.
Please make sure your cart isn't blocked by a parked car, tilted or too close to a tree or mailbox.
Please remember that all garbage and recycling must be placed inside of the provided carts to be collected. Any garbage and recycling outside of the containers cannot be loaded by the automated truck. All smaller items in garbage containers need to be placed into a sealed bag. Please note that if the lid on your cart is not closed, any garbage or recycling that falls outside of the cart will not be collected.
May I use anything other than the Town provided carts for garbage and recycling collection?
No. All garbage and recycling must be placed in the provided carts.
What time do I need to have my carts at the curb?
Please have your carts placed for pickup by 8 a.m. If you place your carts out later than 8 a.m., your garbage and recycling may not be collected.
Can I put bags or my regular trash cans next to the carts?
No. All garbage and recycling must be placed in the provided carts.
What if I need more than one cart?
If you need additional containers, you may purchase additional garbage and recycling service. You will then receive one additional garbage cart and one additional recycling cart for another $22/month.
Additional service may be set up by calling 540-382-9519 or by filling out and sending in the Garbage Cart Request Form (PDF).
What can I do if I occasionally have more garbage than will fit in my cart?
You can store non-perishable garbage and add it to your garbage the following week.
We encourage all organic (e.g., yard trimmings, etc.) and food waste to be composted or disposed of separately from your garbage. This will conserve valuable landfill space, reduce volume in your cart and further reduce odor.
If you are moving and have a significant volume of trash, you can either call a Town representative at 540-382-1151 to place a work order (fees apply) or transport it to the MRSWA landfill (located at 555 Authority Dr.).
If high garbage volume becomes a consistent issue, you may need to contact the Town at 540-382-9519 for additional garbage collection service (fee applies).
What if an item is too bulky to fit into my cart?
Items that are too large to fit into the cart may be stored until the fall or spring cleanup period or you may contact the Town at 540-382-9519 to request a special pickup (fees apply).
The 96-gallon cart is too large for me. May I request a smaller cart?
Customers may request a different size cart by downloading a Garbage Cart Request Form (PDF) or by calling 540-382-9519.
All customers will automatically receive a 96-gallon garbage cart and a 96-gallon recycling cart. However, if you know that you will require a smaller size, you may request the 48-gallon size garbage cart and the 65-gallon recycling cart.
We strongly encourage customers to try the 96-gallon cart as there may be times throughout the year that you may need the larger capacity.
Garbage Cart Request Form (PDF)
Will I be charged less if I use a smaller cart?
No. The smaller sized carts are intended as a convenience for citizens who may have difficulty with the 96-gallon size. However, the cost of collection will not change.
I would like to start with a smaller cart, but what if I later decide that I need a larger one?
If you choose to have the smaller carts delivered to your address, but later decide to switch to the larger carts, we will exchange your cart free of charge.
What will I do if I move?
The carts will be linked to your account, so as long as you continue to have solid waste collection service with the Town, you may take your containers to your new address.
If you are unsure your new residence is eligible for Town solid waste collection, please call 540-382-9519 for further guidance.
If you wish to discontinue your solid waste collection service or need to update your address information, please call 540-382-9519.
What will I do if I am physically challenged and unable to get my container to the street?
Assistance is available to persons with a verified disability.
Garbage Cart Assistance Form (PDF)
If you have difficult maneuvering the 96-gallon carts, you may wish to request the 48-gallon sized cart for garbage and the 65-gallon cart for recycling.
Which areas within the Town are eligible for solid waste collection service?
The areas that are eligible for solid waste collection service are the areas that are currently receiving utility services (water and/or sewer) through the Town and are accessible to a solid waste truck.
I'd like to sign up for solid waste collection service through the Town. How do I do that?
It's easy to sign up for solid waste collection! Just call 540-382-9519 or visit Town Hall at 100 East Main Street.
Where should I store my carts?
The best place to store your carts is in an indoor area such as a garage or shed. You may also store your carts outdoors, to the side or rear of your house.
Please note that the "footprint" of the 96-gallon cart is about 1.5 times the size of a standard 32-gallon garbage can.
Do the carts have a weight limit?
Yes. The weight limit of the 96-gallon carts is a total of 300 lbs. The weight limit of the 48-gallon carts is a total of 150 lbs.
How should I care for my cart?
Cleaning your cart with water and mild detergent will help prevent odor and keep the cart looking nice. Please note that all ashes are prohibited from being placed into your garbage. Composting ash waste is recommended.
Carts are the property of the Town of Christiansburg and under no circumstance shall they be defaced by means of vandalism, painting, marking and/or all other alterations. Should any such damage be noted by a field operator, the account holder will be notified.
What should I do if my cart is damaged or stolen?
If your cart is damaged, please call the Town at 540-382-9519. A staff member will be sent to your residence to repair or replace your cart. The Town is not responsible for carts left unattended. Please note that this service is provided to you, free of charge only if the damage occurred during regular use.
If your cart is stolen, you will first need to file a report with the Christiansburg Police Department at 540-382-3131. Then, contact the Town by calling 540-382-9519 for a replacement cart.

Circulation is the process of drawing water from the pool through the suction line and forcing water back to the pool through the filter and pressure/return line. This is achieved with the use of a pool pump. The circulation system has a dramatic affect on the sanitation of a pool and water quality. When water is in motion, it's harder for bacteria and algae to find a surface on which to grow and the chemicals are more thoroughly distributed. In addition, as the water passes through the filter, debris is captured for easy removal, reducing cloudy water.
The Filter is the first piece of equipment to receive the water from the pump. The filter strains the water and captures both large and small particles. A properly sized and operating filter is critical to keeping water clean. As the filterable debris is collected on the surface of the filter, routine physical cleaning (backwashing and rinsing) is required. Good maintenance of the filter is essential and always involves two steps:
BioGuard Strip Kwik® removes oils, scale and greases from swimming pool filters to improve efficiency. Typically filter cleaning should be done at least twice a year. For effective filtration we recommend chemically cleaning the filter at the start and end of each summer season.
All filter types, can at some time, use the assistance of water clarifying agents to clarify cloudy water, aid in the removal of dead algae and filter out the finer particles that pass through the filter media.
BioGuard's line of Water Enhancers include products with unique properties to accomplish various task:
Some swimming pools have areas with little or no circulation. This is where algae and bacteria can begin to grow. At least once a week, the walls and floor should be brushed and vacuumed to prevent problems from occurring. Brushing is a must, even if you use an automatic pool cleaner or retain a weekly pool service. Remember to clean the pump and weir baskets as often as needed to ensure effective circulation and filtration.
The oily residue from bathers is likely to form a greasy water line at the water's surface, especially inside and around the pools interior wall. Routine chemical cleaning of this residue is important for several reasons:
BioGuard's Off the Wall surface cleaner removes normal build-up of greasy dirt and scale with less scrubbing. This formulation is a good multipurpose cleaner.

* Any views expressed in this opinion piece are those of the author and not of Thomson Reuters Foundation.From low-cost textbook tablets to a simple device that makes toilet water reusable, social entrepreneurs are trying to tackle global problems through innovation
SAN FRANCISCO - A place for "disruptive technology" and "personal connection" - this is how Kevin Jones, co-founder and convener of SOCAP, an annual event that gathers investors, foundations, institutions and social entrepreneurs, introduced this year's conference.
Jones said to his mind there was one person who exemplified why the conference, which bills itself as a space at the "intersection of money and meaning", takes place - Tonee Ndungu, who started Kytabu, a textbook leasing service in Kenya that aims to make them affordable and accessible for students.
Kytabu aims to source low-cost tablets that cost only $40 to make. Reducing the cost of a book by more than 60 percent, users can rent textbooks on an hourly, weekly, monthly, school term or annual plan.
The price of books has risen by 700 percent in recent years, making them out of reach for the poor. By making both the tablet and e-books affordable, educational content can reach a much larger number of people. But like many social enterprises Kytabu needs funding to operate and scale.
Ndungu is raising money for the beta stage of the project. This will pave the way for a pilot phase, scheduled for 2013, where he plans to launch Kytabu with a group of 2,000 students to demonstrate the validity of their model and application.
Ndungu was one of five social entrepreneurs to take the stage on SOCAP Day 1 for a 30-second pitch to introduce their business with the goal of expansion through investment.
The five entrepreneurs were the top five selected from a pool of 100 in an "Impact Accelarator" at the San Francisco conference.
The accelerator, sponsored by Halloran Philanthropies among other socially minded enterprises, provided customized support over a week-long process and offered the entrepreneurs the opportunity to showcase their projects in the main hall of the Fort Mason conference venue.
Conference participants were encourage to engage with the entrepreneurs, donate, and invest in their ventures.
Another aspiring social entrepreneur making his pitch on the stage was Alexander Eaton of Sistema Biobolsa, based in Mexico. The company takes organic waste and produces bio-fertilizer for crops and biogas for heating and cooking.
Sheikh Turay of Liberia's Liberation Chocolate helps former child soldiers reintegrate into society by employing them to restore cocoa farms.
Veronica D'Souza made her case for Ruby Cup, a Denmark and Kenya-based company that makes and affordable menstrual hygiene product that helps girls and women in emerging markets manage their menstruation. Girls in developing countries often miss school during their period because they do not have sanitary products, and women lose out on business and employment opportunities.
Paseka Lesolang introduced Water, Hygiene, Convenience (WHC), which produces a simple device that when installed in a toilet, releases an organic detergent that makes the water reusable.
Paseka got the idea for his device after he discovered that one leaking toilet can waste approximately 80,000 gallons of fresh water a year, an enourmous waste, especially in a country like South Africa where the World Health Organisation predicts consumption will outpace availability by 2025.
The term "disruptive technology" was coined by Harvard Business Professor and innovation guru Clayton Christensen. It refers to innovative technologies that create new markets and value networks. Disruptive products or services move into existing markets with lower quality, cheaper technologies that satisfy similar needs as their existing counterparts.
SOCAP is an annual event that gathers investors, foundations, institutions, and social entrepreneurs in San Francisco with the aim to increase the flow of capital to social good.
The 2012 conference marks the 5th year of the 3-day SOCAP conference. There are a record 1,600 people in attendance from over 25 countries, according to SOCAP.

How to Deal with Taunting Bullies
Are you or someone you love being bullied? Learn how the bully thinks and use their thinking against the bully? Stop avoiding and hiding from your bully. Learn to stand up to your bullies.
Dealing with Bullies
Bullying happens everywhere in schools in your neighborhoods and also in the work place. Bullies bully to look and feel powerful. Bullies use fear to take control of their victims. They also use bullying to gain a reputation of being tough. Bullies often have followers that will also bully you to gain higher status within their group. Each group member wants to be accepted in the group and rank higher with the toughest bully in the group. Often the bullies that are followers really don't want to bully you.
Types of Bullies
Aggressive bullies that push their victims around threaten to beat up their victims.
Taunting bullies will make fun of you and tease you. Their goal is to embarrass you and harass you. It is very painful for victims because the victim really starts to feel worthless and hopeless. Years of bullying can cause so much unbearable pain the victim begins to have thoughts of suicide then eventually commits suicide.
It's Better to Get Your Butt Kicked then Live with the Pain
Running and hiding from bullies will not solve the problem with these bullies. Reporting these bullies just makes it worse. You must stand up for yourself because no one else will. I got sick and tired of it all and fought back after years of torment. When you have had enough of running and hiding from these bullies here is what you do.
Get right with yourself that means being ready to face and fight your bully.. You have to be at the end of your rope you have to be angry enough to fight if necessary. Mentally you've had enough. No more running and hiding.
Most bullies are cowards that's why they look for people who look like easy prey. Think about this for a second. Does the bully start crap with anyone that looks and acts like they can hold their own? No The bullies followers are even more cowardly. This is why they are bulling you because they think you are weak. Yes, I know you're thinking you are weak!
You've been beaten down mentally for so long you believe what the bullies say is true. Even if some of the things that they say is true.
How to Confront the Bully
Prepare to confront your bully you will need to turn your fear into anger. The root of fear is anger so that will not be hard to do. Get angry! Think about the past hurtful teasing the bullies did to you. Cry until you are not hurt no more. This will keep you from crying and backing down when you stand up and confront your bully..
Plan when you're going to confront your bully. You start the confrontation be in control of the conversation not allowing the bully do not let the bully speak. Whatever you do never, allow them to speak. Once you have let them speak, they got you under control. You want to avoid their manipulation.
Watch the bullies face pay close attention to their reactions. Look them straight in the eyes now that you have his or her attention. You will catch them by surprise.
If the bullies followers or anyone else is there to witness the confrontation use it to your advantage at any time your bully spits or physically puts their hands on you the law is on your side.
Make sure your bully physically puts their hands on you first. If the bully points or pokes you with their finger. Grab their finger and bend their finger backwards do not let go. If the confrontation does not get physical. You still need to prove to your bully your not putting up with the none since.
Settle this problem once and for all. Make an appointment with your bully to fight at whatever time place tell your bully you want a fair fight just you and them. I will tell you why! This gives your bully time to process what was said. Your bully is going to stir in fear and they will have a chance to think about the possibility of getting their butt kicked in front of their friends. They will wonder why you choose to fight them and why it took you so long to stand up for yourself?
Your bully will not be able to sleep. Their thoughts will consume them with fear. Fear of not knowing what will happen and what the outcome will be. When you meet your bully the next day. There are only a few outcomes
The bully does not show up. The bully shows up but does not want to fight they want to apologize. The bully wants to fight.
Be ready to fight. "Win or lose" give the bully a good fight you will be free of your bully. If you lose the fight but put up a great fight the bully will respect you and leave you alone.
Win the fight you will respect yourself more and you will get your pride back. Lose the fight you have gained respect from your bully felt those punches the bully will think twice before picking on you. Your bully knows now you won't back down next time he may lose the fight.
What would you rather do get your butt kicked and feel the pain for a day or two or wonder how things would have been if you would have fought back for the rest of your life.
It's better to get your butt kicked than do nothing all. Hiding and putting up with the bully is more painful than getting your butt kicked that only hurts a few days.
Good post. Finally someone who acutally knows how it works. Usually people just tell you to be Jesus/a hippie and "turn the other cheek", tell an adult or something pointless.
However Bullies are cowards as you said and if you meet them at designated places to fight, the might bring friends and such. One should arm themselves just in case.
Baseball bats, Crowbars and hockey clubs are great for fear effect if a group would show up.
I know that telling is the last thing you want to do, you know your stuff!
Tamron! I'm so glad you covered bullying. Your hub is exactly right in what it recommends. Well done! Once in a new town on the school bus a bully tried his act on me. The other kids were egging the big shot on too.When he got right up close I popped him in the face once and he turned his back, bent over and began whimpering.There was a new Sheriff on the bus after that. I always say use your head not your fists, but sometimes the latter is the only option. Bully's are either cowards or insecure people and are to be pitied...after they've learned their lesson. Thank you Tamron.

Visiting AAMI
The first step will be to either fill out this form, or call our offices, to get some details about our program and schedule a visit. A visit is recommended for several reasons. If your child is a young beginner we need to determine readiness. We also try to make as good a "match" between student and teacher as we can. After a conversation with you (or you and your child), the an AAMI director will make a teacher recommendation.
At this meeting we will also discuss your placement in any AAMI group classes, and what your schedule and tuition would consist of.
The instrumental teacher will contact you to arrange for a lesson time. As much as possible this will take into account your class schedule.
When all of this is settled and before lessons can be scheduled, you will need to complete a registration form and make payment arrangements with the AAMI front office.
We want you to have a good experience from the very beginning. We make every effort to select the teacher who is best for you and we recommend the classes in the core curriculum, which are appropriate for your age, level and experience.
AAMI has a parking lot available to all students. The parking lot is located adjacent to the building, both on the side of, and behind the school.

Anyway this manicure is based on the valentine gift I bought this year for my wonderful boyfriend of three years. I got it from over at moonpig who made a customised card and mug for him. (We don't really celebrate Valentine's day so he got his gift early!)
The Mug in question says "Tom, We go together like bacon and eggs... Happy Valentines Day" and there are a couple of photos of us on there too:
and so here is my manicure inspired by that:
And here I am posing with the mug:
I think it is kinda cute in it's own tacky way. Thankfully I am not actually wearing this for valentines day!

Touch-Free Tile Decoration
Recently, a new technology* has been developed that enables this same printing process to be used on ceramic tile. Using an ink jet printing machine and four specially designed inks**, the technology can be used to create an unlimited number of high-quality patterns and decorations on ceramic tile, with fewer materials, less waste, and less development and production time than conventional processes.
Conventional PrintingCeramic tile is typically decorated using either screen or roller printing. With either method, the process begins by scanning the original image or tile to be duplicated into a computer, where any necessary changes are made to create the final decoration.
With screen printing, the final electronic decoration is separated into the individual colors that compose the design. These colors are then transferred to film, which is used to make each required screen. These screens are tested in the lab to ensure that they accurately produce the required design or pattern, and several modifications are often needed. Once the screen is deemed acceptable, it is then used to make production screens, and a squeegee runs across those screens to produce the decorated tile. The process is time-consuming and generates a great deal of waste, including the film, fixative, chemicals and emulsions used during the process, as well as any excess screen material.
With roller printing, each of the individual colors in the design are applied using individual rolls made of a soft polymer compound instead of screens, and any pattern used to create the design must be cut into each roll. These rolls are then lab-tested, and final rolls are created for the production process.
While roller printing provides a higher-resolution image than screen printing, it also requires more fine tuning. The rolls are typically very expensive—costing hundreds of dollars each for both lab and production rolls—so the design and testing operations must be as precise as possible to avoid expensive mistakes. Designs are difficult to change because of the time and expense involved in creating the initial design, and any mistakes made in the early stages of the process can be costly in terms of wasted materials.
With both screen and roller printing, a different glaze must be used for each color. A design that uses five different colors, for instance, requires that five different glazes be mixed, and those glazes often have to be stored in case the design needs to be reproduced later. For tile manufacturers with 10 or 12 different production lines and a broad range of tile designs, the cost of mixing and storing colored glazes can be staggering. Some companies have to store hundreds or even thousands of different glazes to manufacture their products.
Ink Jet PrintingThe new ink jet technology greatly simplifies the entire decorating process (see Figure 1). The image is scanned and modified, as with screen and roller printing, but the similarities end there. Instead of embarking on the time consuming process of making screens or modifying rolls to create the design, the electronic image is transferred almost instantaneously to the ink jet printing machine, which is already equipped with the four required inks. The design can be immediately output to one or several pieces of tile for testing. If the design is acceptable, it can be transferred to production using the same machine. If the design is not acceptable, the original digital image can be changed as needed, and additional tests can be run.
With the ink jet process, no screens, rolls or chemicals are wasted, and very little time is required to go from design to production. Additionally, since only four colors are used to create an unlimited number of patterns and designs, no mixing or storage of multiple glazes is required. The machine is self-cleaning, so no additional maintenance is needed. While production modifications are required to use the new technology, the savings in both materials and time can be significant compared to the conventional processes.
Enhanced Speed, Accuracy and FlexibilityWith conventional processes, the screen or roll has to physically come in contact with the tile to apply the decoration. The production line has to pause as the decoration is applied to each tile, limiting production speeds to around 10 meters (~32 ft) per minute. Additionally, these processes often create a "no-printing" effect, where the squeegee or roller doesn't go all the way to the edge of the tile and a white box or line remains after the decoration is applied. Either an extra production step must be added to trim off this white space, or the white space can be left on, relegating the tile to a lower quality and therefore a lower price.
The conventional processes are also limited in terms of design flexibility. Decorating relief tile and trim pieces, for instance, is nearly impossible because the raised designs and decorations prevent the squeegee or roller from coming in contact with the entire surface of the tile. Although some modifications have been made to the roller printing process using softer, more flexible materials such as silicon, decorating relief tile with this process is still challenging and does not always produce the desired results.
Additionally, the designs and patterns created on the tile are limited by the number of inks or colors required and by the process itself. Some of today's most popular ceramic tile designs seek to imitate natural stone, marble and other natural materials, which are inherently variable in their decoration. While such effects can be partially achieved with screen or roller printing, the process is difficult and affords only limited variability.
The new ink jet process has overcome all of these challenges. Because it is a non-contact decorating process, the tiles exit the machine as quickly as they enter, making speeds as high as 50 meters (~164 ft) per minute possible with photographic-quality reproduction.
Additionally, the decoration is applied all the way to the edge of each tile, unbounded by any mechanical limitations. And decorating relief tile is as easy as decorating flat tile. The relief design is simply entered into the computer and sent to the machine with the touch of a button. The machine adjusts itself accordingly and applies the design to compensate for the relief.
Finally, the new technology enables manufacturers to achieve an almost infinite design variability. The standard ink jet printing machine is equipped with enough memory to create a unique pattern that is 9 meters long and 36 centimeters wide—large enough to decorate about 30 12 x 12 in. tiles in a row before a design has to be repeated. The computer can be instructed to sample any tile from any point in that row and reproduce it later on. For companies that want a larger design space—to reproduce a large slab of marble, for instance—additional memory can be added to the machine. Since the new technology is based on a digital design system, the possibilities are endless—the system can be programmed to do whatever the manufacturer wants it to do.
New OpportunitiesThe new technology does require an initial investment in new equipment, and specially formulated inks must be used with the process to ensure high-quality results. But the opportunities afforded by the new technology are virtually unlimited. Ink jet printing offers a greatly reduced color palette, high versatility, ultrafine resolution, 100% edge-to-edge decoration, full relief decoration, completely random designs and computer control over the entire process.
With this new process, tile design and decoration can be easier, less time consuming and less costly, giving manufacturers the chance to increase their range of products and designs while remaining competitive—and profitable.
Editor's NoteFerro Corp. is based in Cleveland, Ohio. The new ink jet printing technology was developed by Ferro's Spanish subsidiary, Ferro Enamel Española, S.A. Ten machines have undergone extensive testing in production operations by various tile manufacturers in Castellon, Spain, with positive results. In July 2001, Ferro announced the beginning of its European commercialization of the ink jet printing system. The company plans to begin a phased worldwide commercialization of the new technology starting in the second or third quarter of 2002.

My children are singing to the radio in the kitchen in the middle of the breakfast and lunch dishes (and it's 1:49 pm).
I have a piano blog post that was due on the 14th that hasn't been written yet.
I didn't get up early and exercise.
My laundry is scattered over many household surfaces.
The weeding hasn't been done since Friday.
And ya know what?
I think I'm OK with all it.
(Well, not really. I'm really anxious about all of it, but I'm trying to tell myself I'm OK with it.)
If I tell myself I'm OK with it for long enough, will it come true?
Summer is half over. It makes me sad.
Josh turns 16 in less than two weeks. In less than two years, he'll have graduated.
Time's running out.
I think I'm OK with that, too.
(Not really, again.)
I'm trying to learn to live in the moment, desireless.
It's not always working out so well. Right now I have the desire for a clean house, a flatter stomach, and a big fat fresh chocolate chip cookie...oh, I mean a sugarless nasty green smoothie...OK, really a cookie.
I also desire mad improvising skills.
I also desire that that one person who hates me will get over it. Cuz really, it's stupid to hate me. It's like hating cheese. Cheese isn't perfect (it can make you fat or it can make you sick if you're lactose intolerant), but it's also just cheese. It can't help its fat content or its lactose. And even though it has its drawbacks, it's super yummy on pizza, and overall isn't truly evil.
Yes, I just compared myself to cheese. So maybe she's right to hate me.
Where was I? Oh, yes...I was saying that when I am slightly, almost desireless, it is very freeing.
Here's some wisdom from the Tao:
There is a time for being ahead,I read this and copied it in my scripture journal a couple of weeks ago. I've been pondering it here and there. I'm working on letting things go their own way and becoming an observer. (And isn't WORKING at observing, being peaceful, and allowing things to go their own way an oxymoron?)
a time for being behind;
a time for being in motion,
a time for being at rest;
a time for being vigorous,
a time for being exhausted;
a time for being safe,
a time for being in danger.
The Master sees things as they are,
without trying to control them.
She lets them go their own way,
and resides at the center of the circle.
I've become such a good observer that I backed into a pole in the parking garage at Westminster College today.
I seriously love summer.

Climate and weather, although related, are two very different concepts: the former indicates the average pattern of weather for a particular region over a long period of time, while the second is the state of the atmosphere at a given time and place, with respect to variables such as temperature, moisture, wind velocity, and barometric pressure.
The global climate has changed in the history of the Earth and will always be subject to modifications due to natural causes such as, changes in solar radiation and in atmosphere composition, especially in the concentration of the so called 'greenhouse gases'. These gases, among them water vapour (H20), carbon dioxide (C02), and methane (CH4), are responsible of the so called 'greenhouse effect'; catching the infra-red energy, they act as a heat-screen and control the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere. Without them the global average temperature would be -18°C, whereas at the moment it is +15°C.
Humans are further enhancing the rate and extent of the warming of the atmosphere through the emissions of an unsustainable quantity of gases which will eventually cause natural disasters (storms, droughts and floods) and impact on the environment (availability of water and food, health, loss of ecosystems and biodiversity).
Climate change is nowadays recognised as one of the global top priorities and urgent interventions include the reduction, or at least stabilisation of greenhouse gas emissions and promotion of more natural and sustainable energy practices.
Climate change is already having many discernible impacts, for example, on polar ice caps and glaciers. Over the last century, sea levels have risen around 10cm and are expected to continue rising. Sea temperatures have also increased, posing serious threats to the marine wildlife – such as coral bleaching.
This change is happening, and we all bear the responsibility of it. As individuals, we can still do more to reduce our negative impact on the Earth's climate.
HEPCA is engaging a range of projects to encourage the enhancement of our understanding of the impact of climate change on the Red Sea region, as well as promoting new practices in sustainable living. Our areas of involvement include:
The joint effort of HEPCA, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and leading travel and tour operator Kuoni Travel Ltd brought about the organisation of a workshop entitled, "Marine Tourism and Climate Change" (Hurghada, 15-16 June 2009) and the launch of BleachWatch Egypt (March 2010) You can read more about this initiative here
Your ecological footprint
As an individual you can make a difference and at the same time, save money on your bills!
Browsing the web you will find personal footprint calculators…what? Basically, they enquire about your lifestyle and calculate how much your habits cost to the planet. Give it a try!
There are small steps and immediate actions we can start adopting today without distorting our life.
Insulation Heat loss through walls, roof and floor contributes to around 50% of overall heat loss within a building. Insulation is one of the most effective ways to reduce CO2 emissions and to save energy in the long term. For example, double-glazing windows can save more than 70% of the energy otherwise lost.
ModerationUse heating and air-conditioning in moderation. Consider that turning down the heat of just 1°C cut up to 10% off your family's energy bill and avoid up to 300kg/year of CO2 emissions per household. Air-conditioning units consume a huge quantity of energy and contribute around 650gr of CO2 emissions per hour, costing around € 0.10/hour.
Only use them when absolutely needed, and consider the use of a fan as an alternative. Switch off or programme your appliances in order to have the desired temperature when you are actually at home, don't let them operate unnecessarily whilst you are not there.
MaximizationTry to make the maximum advantage out of your domestic appliances: run washing and dishwashing machines when they are full and if possible at low temperatures. Fill the freezer and fridge: it requires less energy to cool them if they are full.
Be an intelligent consumerBe a responsible, aware and intelligent consumer.
Move responsiblyOn average, as passenger of the following means of transportation, we cause the following quantity:
CO2 to enter the atmosphere new car = 160 g/km, plane = 100 - 250 g/km, bus = 40 - 80 g/km, train 40 = 160g/km. Cycling, walking, car-pooling, public transport save more than 2.5kg of CO2 which will be released for a litre of fuel in a car engine.
Avoid short car journeys: cold engines produces enormous amount of Co2 and consume more fuel.
Reduce, Recycle, Reuse
Other useful tips:Don't pre-wash your laundry, this will save 15% of the energy.Switch off and de-plug lights, appliances, chargers, etc. when you are not using themTurn off the tap when possible whilst brushing your teeth, taking a shower, and washing dishes.Print less and, if you really have to print, double side your printing to use less paper.

Treatments for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
by Amy Scholten, MPH
If left untreated, OCD can seriously affect your daily functioning, relationships, success in school, ability to work, and mental health. OCD is usually treated with a combination of behavioral therapy (counseling) and medications. Behavioral therapy can help you gradually confront feared objects or ideas, either directly or by imagination. Medications are used to treat the obsessions, anxiety, depression, distress, and other associated disorders.
Psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specially trained primary care providers are trained to treat OCD. If your doctor doesn't have special training, ask for the name of a doctor or counselor who does.
Treatment involves the following:
Surgical procedures or deep brain stimulation are recommended only for extreme cases of very severe, treatment-resistant OCD.

Andrew has an MSci degree in Theoretical Physics (first class) from the University of St. Andrews and a DPhil in Laser Physics from the University of Oxford. He then held a NERC Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship in the Department of Geography at the University of Cambridge before moving to Sheffield in 2005 as a RCUK Academic Fellow. He has subsequently been promoted to Senior Research Fellow, and then Reader. He serves on the editorial board of the journal Remote Sensing and as an associate scientist of the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia.
Research Interests
His research is focused on the development and application of remote sensing techniques for environmental, particularly volcanic, remote sensing, for which he was named a Laureate in the 2008 Rolex Awards for Enterprise competition. This work has been covered in the press through outlets such as Le Monde, La Repubblica, National Geographic, Wired, Esquire and Vogue. To learn more please take a look at a talk Andrew gave at TEDxMunich in 2011.
For futher details on publications see ResearcherID
Current research
My current work falls within the following three themes:
Volcano Remote Sensing
Development and application of sensors for monitoring volcanic plumes, in order to improve our understanding of how volcanoes work.
Volcano Atmosphere Interactions
Better understanding the radiative and chemical impacts of volcanic emissions to the atmosphere.
Other Environmental Sensing
Development and deployment of spectroscopic tools for studying other environmental phenomena, such as anthropogenic pollution.
Field targets include the southern Italian volcanoes, Masaya volcano, Nicaragua and the volcanoes of Papua New Guinea.
I teach a range of modules at graduate and undergraduate level focused on understanding the Earth system, volcanism and how we use remote sensing to understand both of these. In teaching I try and make as many links as possible to daily life, and to other germane subjects in geography and beyond to help understanding and really emphasise the unity of knowledge amidst the sometimes confusing modular system. I also try and include the most up to date and exciting developments in these fields especially in the context of my own research. I use lecturing and small group teaching styles. I also teach on research skills and try and really make the link between the usefulness of this ability at University but also beyond in every possible career which a Geography graduate may go onto pursue!
In addition to teaching at Sheffield I have been a speaker at the Education Without Borders conference in Dubai and at TEDxMunich.
Andrew teaches on a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses including:
GEO101 Physical Systems at the Global Scale
GEO6030 Research Design in Physical Geography

How to Make Beef Jerky With a Dehydrator
Beef Jerky Recipe using a Dehydrator
One of our favorite snack to take on hikes or camping is usually granola bars or beef jerky. Commercially made beef jerky tends to be expensive, high in sodium, and there's such a small amount in each bag. I prefer to make my own beef jerky as it's really easy and cost-effective.
Beef jerky is a convenient, high-protein snack to have on hand all the time. If you don't like beef or are trying to cut back on red meat, you can make turkey jerky or deer jerky in your dehydrator.
If you want to learn how to make beef jerky using a dehydrator, this article includes a step-by-step tutorial. I am also sharing with you two of my favorite recipes.
Why Use a Dehydrator?
People have been drying food since the beginning of time. People preserved different types of food out of necessity. The only two elements that were available were the sun and salt.
Flash forward thousands of years later, technology has given us the dehydrator. We can now dry meat and make delicious jerky right in our kitchen. A dehydrator is one of my favorite kitchen gadget. Not only do I use it to dry fruits, but I often make beef jerky with it. If you have pets, you can also make healthy turkey jerky for them.
The following reasons to use a dehydrator to make beef jerky
- Less expensive - It cost less electricity to run the dehydrator than using the oven.
- Healthier - Drying food preserves nutrients
- It's easy!
Looks like the "Slim Jim's"!
How to Make Beef Jerky with Ground Beef
When it comes to choosing meat for my beef jerky, I prefer ground beef. The result is usually a more chewy and less tough jerky. I do not like to bite into a hard piece of jerky. It's also a lot quicker to make compared to other cuts of beef, since you don't need to do any slicing. Trust me, slicing beef is so time consuming! You also don't need to let the meat marinade for hours.
If you do decide to slice flank steak and marinade it, simply leave it the refrigerator for 1-2 days to allow the flavors to marry and really seep through the meat.
The Essential Equipment for Making Beef Jerky
There are only two equipment that will make your life much easier. Buy a dehydrator and a beef jerky gun! The dehydrator is such a great investment. You can find one for roughly under $40 on Amazon. The beef jerky gun that I use is only $15 and it hold up to 1 pound of meat.
Of course there is the old fashion way of drying out your meat which is to use your oven. However you will be spending more on the electricity bill in the long run.
**For 2 pounds of meat**
Recipe #1: Basic, but Yum Beef Jerky
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons liquid smoke
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Tips for Beef Jerky Marinade
- Throw in some red pepper flakes if you like spice!
- 1 teaspoon meat tenderizer if you are using London broil, or any other cuts besides ground beef.
Recipe #2: Teriyaki Beef Jerky
- 2/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon maple Syrup
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon white sesame seeds
Instructions for Beef Jerky Using a Dehydrator
- Throw all your seasoning in the ground beef and use your hands to mix it well. Yes, use your hands. Mix, mix, mix! **The preservative packets that come with the Nesco jerky gun taste alright too. However, I don't use it because of all the MSG.
- Use a big spoon and scoop all the meat into the tube of the jerky gun. Make sure there is no air bubbles in the meat so pack it in there tight!
- Using your beef jerky gun, place the slices on the racks. Set your dehydrator temperature to 165 degrees F. I usually check the meat periodically for 2 reasons. One, I get anxious and can't wait for them to be finished. It's an odd habit. Two, different dehydrators have different power so the drying time can vary. The size of the cuts of meat can also make a difference in drying time. It can take from 2 hours to 12 hours to dehydrate, depending on the thickness of the beef and your dehydrator. It's finished when the meat has turned very dark and is pliable.
- Your beef jerky will be done when it is no longer moist. If you leave it in too long it will become very dry and will crack when you try bending it.
How to Store Homemade Beef Jerky
If you plan on eating the beef jerky immediately or within 5-7 days, you can store it in a sealed bag or tightly sealed container on your counter. If you store it in the refrigerator, it can last up to a few weeks. I would store the rest of the beef jerky in a tight zip lock freezer bags and store in the freezer. The drier the meat, the longer it will last.
Questions & Answers
Hello #KimLam So after I let my meat marinate And I put it in my dehydrator. How long. Does it take for the meat to cook?
Do I open the vents while cooking with my dehydrator. Also mine doesn't have a temperature setting. Do I assume it's 160.
Is there a secret to keeping the trays which the meat sits on clean , and ways to making cleaning easier ?
I recently needed burger, did not have any, had a frozen steak, thawed it, put in Ninja, awesome burger!....then I could go on to make the "burger" jerky! Thanks for the great looking recipe and a use for my dehydrator...I never use.
I also found the meat to be very slimy and hard to work with. Way too much liquid for 2lbs of meat.
For storage, I use my food sealer...can keep fresh for months!!!
Hi love this recipe thanks. I'm in the UK. Missing the States. Going to get a dehydrator can this be used for SOS? Hubby Vietnam Vet. Loves is SOS. Thanks again. Looking forward to my new dehydrator to come.
What type of curing salt do you use in your recipes?
I used the recipe for Teriyaki Beef Jerky today. The jerky is currently in the dehydrator and smells great. However there was WAY too much moisture in the meat so much It was difficult to use the jerky press. The meat came out in "Splats" rather than nice uniform strips. Next time I will use only half the recommended amounts of fluids.
My wife and I are on the fence whether to get a food dehydrator. This hub may decide the question in favor of giving one a try.
I really like jerky and so does our dog, but it's sooo expensive. After reading your hub I plan to go out and buy a dehydrator, or better yet, maybe someone will give me one for Christmas. Nice well written hub. I voted up, useful, and interesting.
Beef jerky isn't much eaten in the UK as far as I know, we seem to go in for smoking rather than drying. Don't know why. But this does sound like a handy way of preserving meat for camping expeditions.
I don't like MSG either, so I prefer to cook at home. Thank you for sharing this useful hub. I think I will give it a try. I have never used liquid smoke, but I will look it up.
Voted up and useful!
