WASHINGTON (12/31/14)--The tax deduction for mortgage insurance premiums is one of more than 45 tax provisions that have been extended through 2014. The deductions were included in the Tax Prevention Act of 2014, which was signed into law Dec. 19.
The act officially amends the Internal Revenue Code to extend tax provisions that were about to expire or expired at the end of 2013. The extensions are allowed for the entire tax year of 2014.
The mortgage insurance premium tax deduction is one of eight deductions listed as individual tax extenders. Other categories in the bill include business tax extenders, energy tax extenders and extenders relating to multiemployer defined benefit pension plans.
According to the Internal Revenue Service, the 2015 filing season will open as scheduled in January, with electronic and paper returns accepted starting Jan. 20.
"We have reviewed the late tax law changes and determined there was nothing preventing us from continuing our updating and testing of our systems," said IRS Commissioner John Koskinen.
"Our employees will continue an aggressive schedule of testing and preparation of our systems during the next month to complete the final stages needed for the 2015 tax season."

While business movers and shakers may be just "discovering" Istanbul, seekers of culture, beauty, art and nightlife have known just how special the city is for some time. Istanbul, in its emerging grandeur is reminiscent of Henry Miller's Paris, an old-world respite with a leaning towards a sexy, modern and very exciting future. For the business traveler it offers world class amenities wrapped in the Turks unique brand of hospitality. It's a city that has been through a lot recently; terrorist attacks, street protests, an attempted coup, and through it all Istanbul remains thoroughly fascinating (and we mean that in a good way).
So whether you have one day off after meetings or are on more a leisurely holiday here is Part One of our Editor's list on what you shouldn't miss in the fantastic city of Istanbul.
We'll start with its traditional side.
- Sulanahmet District or "Old City"
When in Istanbul, one must take the time to visit the touristy heart of historic Old Istanbul, the Sultanahmet area; to see Ayasofya, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Ayasofya (Hagia Sophia) and the The Basilica Cistern or Yerebatan Cistern (Turkish translation: Yerebatan Sarnıcı – "Sunken Cistern"), (many tend to miss this last one, an underground basilica/cistern located 150 m south west of the famed Hagia Sophia). There are numerous museums and sights in this region, taking the time to wander a bit will not disappoint
- Shopping
Within the Sulanahmet District lies the Grand Bazaar and the Spice Bazaar, both great places to immerse oneself in a bit of old-world shopping. Istanbul's Grand Bazaar is one of the largest covered markets in the world with 65 streets and nearly 5000 shops. Built in the 5th century, within the walls protecting the heart of old Istanbul, the colorful bazaar is a feast for the eyes and other senses, while every transaction is a dramatic event. Saying 'no' and getting through the bazaar can be a lesson in negotiations, but the experience, and the deals to be found are well worth the adventure. The Spice or Egyptian Bazaar is housed in a building built in the 1940's. A similar experience in bartering and haggling, the Spice bazaar is primarily filled with dried foods and spices.
- Hagia Sophia
The Hagia Sophia, as one of the world's most fascinating and beautiful historic buildings, deserves special mention, as its incarnations through history stand out as symbolic to the chronological changes in growth that have taken place in Turkey.
Opened in 537, it started out as the world's largest cathedral until Seville cathedral was completed in 1520. It remained a Christian cathedral for 900 years until the Turks took the city (at the time called Constantinople) in 1453. The Hagia Sophia was then transformed into a mosque for the next 500 years. In 1935 this magnificent structure became a museum; open for the enjoyment of the public. Inside this vast square building, columns and piers rise over massive Byzantine mosaics; the dome ceiling floats majestically on a circuit of 40 arched windows, which flood the vibrant interior with light.

A model for characterizing the spectral response of the passband of Wavelength Selective Switches (WSS) is presented. We demonstrate that, in contrast to the commonly used supergaussian model, the presented model offers a more complete match to measured results, as it is based on the physical operation of the optical system. We also demonstrate that this model is better suited for calculation of WSS channel bandwidths, as well as predicting the final bandwidth of cascaded WSS modules. Finally, we show the utility of this model in predicting channel shapes in flexible bandwidth WSS channel plans.

So, my Stampede 2wd got pirated last weekend to fix the kids' trucks. Steering servo went into my oldest son's Pede, and the motor went into the middle boy's stadium truck. After I gave up on an old CEN, I stripped it down and boxed it up to await either the eBay monster or something else. So there is was with a Mamba Monster 2200 system, a Savox servo, and a Stampede roller. You guessed it, out came the Dremel. The truck itself is fairly well optioned, Bearings throughout, the vxl trans, the usual. I expect I'm going to break something, probably in spectacular fashion, so I'm gonna ask you guys before I go blindly ordering replacements. I figure first up will be axles. MIP, STRC, or something else? Of course any plastics I break will be RPM, and I'm eyeing alloy axle carriers. Anything else I should be looking at? I'll try to get some pics up this afternoon if anyone is interested.
The MM2 and a 2200 motor is an overkill on a 2wd truck. On the 4x4 with a litlle mod here an there it will fit.
I had the MMP with 3800 when I had the pedes and could never get its potential on tthat truck, once I had on the 4x4 slash , it was wnother story.
Mind you the 2wd pede was ridiculously fast on 3s , and scary fast.....mcay have to also put weighs upfont and use the castle link to some adjustements.
Defintely MIP or FLM.for drive shafts, even the FLM c block were great, try and get their carrirs too butlots of their stuff are no longer in production however I got parts directly trough them instead of the lhs.
Live life to the fullest
Thanks for the reply. Oh, I know it's way overkill. I doubt it will stay that way. I'm working on getting a 1/10th Revo roller for the system and a 3500 or 4600 Castle system for the P2de. I just thought I'd see if I could get standing backflips out of it. Lol.
The 2200 will likely shred the drive shafts so be careful.
Your driveshafts are toast but have fun!
RC is an addiction just don't make me go to rehab
My stampede has an 18v drill motor on 3s. Youll be fine just spend the money on drive shafts. Im using the proline ones. This setup snapped a hot racing diff lock.

HMFH Architects
Wayland High School
Wayland, MA
Replacing a high school campus that was widely published when it opened 50 years ago and still known for its strong academic program had its challenges. The multi-building complex was beloved for its informal and open campus, but crumbling structures, failing systems, and spaces ill-suited to 21st century learning required a new vision. An intensive pre-design process with community stakeholders resulted in that vision and a user-focused design solution that accommodates equally well the best of both its classical teaching traditions and innovative new learning models.
- Students 900
- Grades 9-12
- Size 200,000 ft2
Two multi-story buildings are anchored by an open courtyard that functions as an all-weather student commons. It also acts as a link between the academic classroom building and the commons building, which houses administration, fine and performing arts and athletic spaces. The two new buildings, plus the renovated field house, replace a collection of eight buildings that were considerably less efficient and created isolated learning experiences. In addition to general classrooms, the new school has a variety of learning environments including a library/media resource center, a seminar room with tiered seating, a music suite, art studios, a fabrication shop, a fitness studio and a field house. The commons building includes a 600-seat auditorium, the student dining commons that also serves as a lobby/reception hall, scene shop, art and music studios and a fitness center.

Here's yet another reason to read the labels of packaged foods, and put them back on the shelf if they contain trans fats.
You have probably read that trans fats are bad for the heart. During February's National Heart Month, consumers are reminded to avoid trans fats in their diet. Trans fats, also known as trans fatty acids, are created when hydrogen is added to vegetable oil to keep foods solid and to extend their shelf life. Here's where trans fats are often found:
- packaged baked goods, such as cookies, crackers and frozen pies
- snack foods such as microwave popcorn
- certain margarines
- coffee creamer
- refrigerated dough products
- frozen pizza
- fast foods
Though food manufacturers find trans fats useful, medical science says that these substances are to be avoided. Many studies have shown that trans fats raise the risk of heart disease by raising the level of "bad cholesterol" (LDL). Trans fats have been linked to cancer, diabetes and stroke, as well. Prof. Beatrice Golomb of the University of California-San Diego says it best: "As I tell patients, while trans fats increase the shelf life of foods, they reduce the shelf life of people."
At a recent American Heart Association scientific conference, Dr. Golomb reported on a study that gives us yet another reason to avoid trans fats: they seem to damage our memory. Dr. Golomb's team studied a group of 1,000 healthy men, and found that the higher a participant's consumption of trans fat, the worse he performed on a word memory test. Each additional gram of trans fat consumed per day resulted in fewer words recalled. This held true across test subjects of different ages, ethnicities and education levels.
Dr. Golomb explained, "Foods have different effects on oxidative stress and cell energy." You have probably heard of the benefits of antioxidants. Trans fats, says Golomb, are pro-oxidant, and increase oxidative stress.
The best way to avoid the damaging effect of trans fats is not to consume them at all! Read food labels carefully, and if you see trans fats in the ingredients, leave the product to live out its shelf life … on the shelf.
This article is not mean to replace the advice of your healthcare provider. Consult your doctor or nutritionist with questions about cognitive and cardiac health, and about a diet that is best for you.

Wilsonart Color Matched Caulk
Best Colored Caulk
Expert Review
The Wilsonart Color Matched Caulk is one of the best colored caulks because it doesn't contain any ethylene glycol, a mildly toxic chemical found in a lot of different caulks. This makes it safer to use. It also stays flexible with age, which is great if you want a durable, long lasting caulk for your money. Finally, like some of the other caulks on this list, this product is stain, mold and mildew resistant.

Melbourne Cup Week continues at Flemington on Thursday where it is Oaks Day. The weather is fine, the track is soft (5) and the rail is out five metres for the entire circuit.
Oaks Field 🏆: View the VRC Oaks Field
Race 1. (12:15) Maribyrnong Plate 1000m
Like the look of 5 Chicago Bull (Bet Now: $2.90 FAT ODDS) for the Gelagotis team. He trialled a few weeks back at Cranbourne and looked very good to my eye. He was on speed in his particular jump out, led and looked to things very nicely, a real pro for a two year old. Drawn to get clear and does have gate speed. Happy to be with him.
9 Vinicunca (Bet Now: $6.00 FAT ODDS) is a daughter of I Am Invincible having her first start for the WaterBott stable. This girl has won a couple of jump outs at Flemington and looked pretty good to the eye. Wayne Lordan booked to steer, she has gate speed, so she can sit wherever she likes in terms of the track and prove hard to run down.
1 Wedgetail (Bet Now: $15.00 FAT ODDS) is a Tony McEvoy trained colt who was good first up in the Debutant behind Champagne Boom before going to the Inglis Banner where he was one of many victims in that race in a total forgive. Trained on the track and has jumped out well down the straight prior to the debut. Likeable.
Race 2. (12:55) DrinkWise Plate (70) 1700m
9 Cabierro (Bet Now: $12.00 FAT ODDS) is racing well for Anthony Freedman. Just needs to put another win on the board. Ran over the mile on Sale Cup Day she was back and held up early on in the straight but got clear and finished off strongly to run second to All Hard Wood. Third horse was Ripplebrook, so the form ties in and has to be respected.
Can #SF strike with 6 Palmateer (Bet Now: $6.00 FAT ODDS)? This girl has been really good recently in Sydney, her latest run over 1550m on the Kensington track at Randwick when a closing third to Sky Boy, who has franked the form since. Think up to 1700m is perfect for this mare and looks one of the hardest to beat.
I think now she has won a race, I think 4 Guipure (Bet Now: $19.00 FAT ODDS) can go right on with it now. Ran over the mile on Moe Cup Day last time against the boys where Lane had her up on speed and she was there to be beaten by a handy one in Ripplebrook but she knuckled down and found plenty late when challenged. 1700m no issue, back to the mares grade, she appeals.
Race 3. (13:35) Twitter Trophy (90) 1800m
7 Savacool (Bet Now: $3.90 FAT ODDS) is an interesting runner. Thought she would head to the Matriarch on Saturday but she has accepted to run here and clearly has to rate highly. Ran over 2000m at Randwick last time and I thought she did a very good job off a moderate tempo when second to Sky Boy. Back to 1800m a little query but down in the weights and gets a lovely run from the draw.
8 Live And Free (Bet Now: $6.00 FAT ODDS) looks back on track. He was too bad to be true when resuming on the Kensington track at Randwick before racing on the course proper where he was back in a slowly run race and was nearer the inside, which wasn't the spot to be yet still ran on well to run fourth. Third up at 1800m, he appeals.
4 Astoria (Bet Now: $14.00 FAT ODDS) looks to be back on track. Jury was out off the back of a couple of below par runs but he was very good over the mile at Randwick last time when a close up third to Smart As You Think. He'll love the rise to 1800m and has run and performed in much better races than this. Gate a little tricky.
Race 4. (14:15) Off The Track Subzero Handicap (90) 1400m
6 Andaz (Bet Now: $6.00 FAT ODDS) looks a great bet for mine. Chris Waller trains this four year old, who you only have to cast your mind back to this time last year ran a ripper in the Coolmore Stud. Hasns't gone on with it since, but his run at Warwick Farm last time was full of merit when beaten a lip by a handy one in Red Currant. Got the right form and class to beat these.
1 Powerline (Bet Now: $11.00 FAT ODDS) has had a couple of cracks at this race and looks set up to run well once again. Ran over 1200m at Randwick a couple of Saturdays back and stuck to the task well in defeat I thought when fourth to Coruscate, his first run in a month. Has room for improvement condition wise and up to 1400m a big tick.
12 Ivoryman (Bet Now: $51.00 FAT ODDS) has had a few homes during his career but seems to be racing in career best form under the care of Scott Brunton in Tassie. Produced some of the better late splits of the night when winning over 1400m at Launceston last time, albeit in a much easier race than this. Always have to respect the stable.
Race 5. (14:55) Melbourne Cup Carnival Country Final (80) 1600m
The potential is clearly there with 13 Cochada (Bet Now: $7.00) so I'll lean his way. Ran over 1400m on Sale Cup Day and for mine he just got too far back but his run was very good in defeat behind Toosbuy. He races as if the mile will be ideal and has sat closer in the run in previous outings. If that can happen, he'll take beating.
1 Superhard (Bet Now: $5.50) just has to tick the 1600m box to look the winner. Ran over 1400m on Bendigo Cup Day where I thought it was an absolute peach from Zahra that got the job done. The 1600m is the only negative with him because he needs to be cuddled given he has a short, sharp turn of foot. Ticks that box and he'll look the winner.
7 Akkadian (Bet Now: $9.50) should love the step up to the mile. He ran second to Superhard in the Bendigo race mentioned above where he just got too far back but had to like the way he finished off. Likely gets decent three wide cover from the gate and can be dangerous, and has run well here in his earlier days.
Race 6. (15:35) Absolut Stakes 1000m
4 Kaepernick (Bet Now: $5.50) seems to be loving life at the moment. He hasn't raced since the Concorde at Randwick where he closed off for a ripping second to Redzel, which is the A1 form. Been kept on ice for Cup Week, has trialled up enormous a couple of times and appeals big time against this lot.
Great to see 8 Illustrious Lad (Bet Now: $8.50) back at the races. He hasn't raced since the Al Quoz at Meydan where he ran a mighty fifth on the world stage behind a high class animal in Jungle Cat. Dynamite fresh horse and gee he looked sharp in a recent Cranbourne trial win. Class will carry him a long way towards victory.
11 Bandipur (Bet Now: $20.00) for me. He seems to be a really good fresh and this appears to be a target race for James Cummings. Put together a couple on the bounce before coming to Melbourne where he was good in a couple of strong races. Went back to Sydney and loved the way he went in a Warwick Farm trial. Has run well down the straight before and for mine looks one of a few ways you could go.
Race 7. (16:15) TCL TV Stakes 1800m
6 Junipal (Bet Now: $4.80) looks a decent enough horse for Darren Weir. Gave them a galloping lesson two back to break the maiden at Donald before going to the mile on Blue Sapphire Day at Caulfield where he was a bit one paced but sound behind Syd's Coin. Think 1800m and the bigger track are two big ticks.
Back to 1800m should suit the Matt Laurie trained 3 Real Success (Bet Now: $4.20). He ran in the Vase on Cox Plate Day and probably found the class/trip a bit much but he wasn't terrible by any stretch behind Stars Of Carrum, who ran well in the Derby. This looks more his level and off the win two back, he's in the game.
I'm happy to give 10 Tavidance (Bet Now: $7.50) another chance. Thought he was excellent on debut when winning over 1400m at Ballarat before going to the mile there against the older horses and on face value he was poor behind Charlton but there was heavy market support to suggest he'd win. Respecting that and the fact breeding suggests this trip will suit.
Race 8. (17:00) Kennedy Oaks 2500m
If she runs the trip, 1 Amphitrite (Bet Now: $3.20) will win. It was an absolute horror show if you were on her in the Empire Rose on Saturday. It was a barrier trial. No luck at all in the straight and went to the line under a hold. Hasn't had the gut buster so she should have fresh legs and does everything right unlike Verry Elleegant.
4 Verry Elleegant…(Bet Now: $5.00) what to do with her? I think she's a better horse than Amphitrite but my god she just does too much wrong. That was evident in the Wakeful. Just pulled her head off and had nothing left for the straight when down the track behind Aristia. She's got a Group l motor. Just has no idea what the caper is about.
10 Scamper (Bet Now: $35.00) is a lightly raced daughter of Fastnet Rock for Team Corstens who is trying to force her way into the Oaks field. Ran in a maiden at Yarra Valley over 1950m last Saturday and despite doing a bit wrong in putting them away, she did it impressively the final few strides. Bigger track and up to 2500m looks ideal. Does she have the class? No. But trip won't be an issue if she relaxes.
Race 9. (17:45) World Horse Racing Roses Stakes 1100m
Just has to tick the straight box and 3 Humma Humma (Bet Now: $5.50) will be winning for mine. Gee she's been a beauty this time in for John McArdle but keeps finding one or two better. She certainly found one better last time at Caulfield, running second to Sunlight, and we know what that girl has done since. Back to 1100m, back a touch in depth, she appeals.
16 Bleu Roche (Bet Now: $5.50) is a talented filly for Matt Laurie who was one of the better runs of the afternoon on Cox Plate Day in the Red Anchor when closing off hard from the back to run fourth after sitting wide in the run. Loved her run here down the straight the start prior and draws to get cover off a good speed.
The unknown here is 5 Multaja (Bet Now: $16.00). James Cummings tried her out as a Thousand Guineas filly but that theory was put to bed after a below par run in the Prelude. Been freshened up and trialled up well a couple of weeks back behind a good one in Stampede. At her best, she's clearly up to beating these.

This competition is open to all young fencers in primary schools across Scotland. It is especially suitable for fencers who have just started. The equipment is provided, but bring your own mask, if you prefer.
What to expect: A lot of fencing and fun!
Meet fencers from other clubs and fence all day, with a final round against children of your own ability level. Each final division of 6 fencers fights for its own trophy and medals.
There will be experienced referees, a play area for younger brothers & sisters and for between rounds and bouts, and a tuck shop with snacks, coffee, and tea for parents.
During the first two rounds all children fence in mixed levels across the participating schools and clubs. In the final round, the fencers are grouped together into League Divisions A, B, C, etc of very similar ability. There are no elimination rounds - everyone gets a full afternoon's fencing. Each final division of 6 fencers fights for its own trophy and medals with certificates for the following places.
The referees also award our largest trophy, the Bracewell Trophy for Form And Technique, with medals for the runners-up, and a gold medal for Sportsmanship.
We will be using our paperless scoring app, with an extra app for all fencers and spectators to follow their scores as the action happens.
Simply click PaFFAudience. – here you will also find all fights from the last two competitions.
Or for more information go to: http://clubknight.uk on any web-browser and click on the link for ClubKnight Audience.
Frequently asked questions:
What should we bring?
- A long sleeved top and long trousers, which allow full movement of the leg & knee;
- A warm top, for between fights;
- Grippy indoor shoes that have heel-cushioning;
- A water bottle, lunch and snacks – your child will need lots of food during their hours of fighting;
A camping chair! – The competition takes place in a sports hall with limited seating for spectators. Please bring your own camping chair or make yourself comfy on the floor.
"Isn't it a bit early for my child to enter a competition?"
Honestly, No.
Many of the children are equally early in their progress as a fencer, some only had three lessons. This competition gives them four hours of fencing against children roughly their age, and a chance to compete in a final round against carefully-selected opponents, with coaching on the go by the referees.
Do we need to stay? If you can, please do stay to support your child. And a helping hand is always welcomed by the organisers, as this competition is completely volunteer run.

The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is a common-sense tax break that reduces the income tax owed by lower-wage working families, allowing them to contribute more to vibrant local economies.
Many hard-working Ocean State families are struggling to pay for housing, heat, food, and health care. Federal and state EITCs helps working families close that gap, providing a refundable tax credit based on their income and family size. Rhode Island policymakers can help build an economy that works for everyone by strengthening the state's earned income tax credit.

Volvemos a hablar de Bioginástica un arte que se basa…
Tiago Haddad interview. Bioginástica. The art of movement.
Some time ago I had the opportunity to close an open circle from long, to interview Rickson Gracie's Yoga teacher. Since I learned about this Master I was interested in his system and was looking for information by different means. So I contacted his Academy and it was Tiago Haddad who gave me the opportunity to get the interview with the Grand Master Orlando Cani.
I wanted to do it on this occasion with Tiago, not because he helped me, that too, but because I identify that he is currently one of the Bioginástica pillars and has a long and profound experience in what this System is (and others). I was really interested in his perspective for his journey and commitment with the Master and the project that now they lead together.
Very kindly he has acceded to the questions that arose under the prism of the incessant search for truth in movement. Many thanks to Tiago for his patience and for his time, I know that he is a very busy person.
Thanks so much again.
Link de la entrevista en español: Bioginástica. Tiago Haddad.
How were your beginnings, who is Tiago?
I'm a Physical Education professional passionate about sports and movement itself. I always looked for activities and exercises that were not focused only on the physical aspects but also on mental and emotional development. That's how I found Bioginástica (Biogymnastic) and Orlando Cani' Studio.
How did you meet GM Orlando Cani and what did you see in him that made you get involved 100% with the project?
Initially I took lessons with one of the first Orlando' followers. Sadly I came to find out that this disciple had registered Orlando's method under his name and was presenting himself as its sole creator. In the moment I acknowledged that, I went to Orlando Cani' Studio and where I was welcomed with great kindness and generosity. That made me understand what a true GM means and I decided to join him to help perpetuate this wonderful work.
Can you define what exactly is Bioginástica?
Bioginástica is a method that has been developed by Professor Orlando Cani since the 60's. It is a research that aims to unify some Eastern philosophies with the training and science of the West. It is a fluid, dynamic and creative movement that focuses on the development of body awareness and the breathing techniques. It is an intense physical training that stimulates strength, flexibility, balance, agility, coordination, concentration, and especially the ability to get into the meditation state even in movement.
In the interview with your Master, who incidentally was thanks to you!! (Thanks so much again) he spoke openly about to had problems with the name of the art and so on time ago, do you want to say something about it?
As it has happened to many masters along time, Orlando was once betrayed by his disciple, Álvaro Romano, that he considered as a son and to whom he taught everything he knew for over 12 years without charging anything.
I feel sorry for what happened because I have Orlando as a second father but we do not think too much about it, we rather continue working to strengthen Bioginástica and believe that eventually people recognize the depth of Orlando's work and come to us.
Some anecdote you want to note the time you've spent with Maestro Orlando Cani?
Last year, on Orlando's 80th birthday, I threw him a surprise party gathering old time students and athletes at the studio to celebrate it. To mark the occasion, I worked with his family to collect endorsements from several top athletes he trained and we made a beautiful video with all athletes speaking about him and wishing him happy birthday. It was a very special moment for all of us and Orlando was deeply moved.
There are different disciplines inside your system (Yoga, Tai Chi, Dancing …), where you feel more comfortable?
The important thing is to feel comfortable moving with awareness. We do not define whether one move comes from Yoga or from Tai Chi. The key is to perform each movement with awareness and joy. Feeling, listening and respecting your body.
What makes your art different from the rest of movement training?
The idea of union that comes mainly from the Yoga. The union of training and breathing, relaxation and meditation. The union of strength and softness, slow and fast, movement and stillness.
Something more to discover in movement culture?
Sure, after all movement is unlimited, infinite. Orlando always says that the research never ends and we must always explore and try new possibilities. Today's training is increasingly integrated and we continue to study new science breakthroughs and trends to enhance and support the method.
What is meditation for you, it´s important?
Meditation is a state of mind where mental fluctuations cease, when the mind silences. It is very important for people who live in large centers and need to deal with an enormous amount of information and stress, as well as for athletes who need to be focused on the present moment, concentrated and with balanced breathing.
What do you prefer: to be student or teacher into the art?
Being Orlando's student is wonderful, but to share what I've learned with my own students and to pass on the method it's also very satisfying. I believe that I will always be a student and a teacher, learning in my personal practice and while I teach.
How good is Bioginástica for martial artists?
Bioginástica is excellent for any athlete, helping to develop physical and motor valences, the corporal domain and maintaining the mental and emotional balance through breathing techniques. When moving with awareness, the athlete is able to perform a move more precisely and with the least energy expenditure. This improves performance, delays fatigue and minimizes the risk of injury.
There are great sports and fight personalities working with you… can you tell us something about it? Why they are now involving with the academy, even Rickson, not much time ago, spoke really good about Orlando Cani…
It is an honor to have top-level athletes training with us and knowing that we can influence their performance and achievements. We have a new generation athletes and fighters coming to us to complement the training.
Currently you are the director of the academy right? Can you tell us a little of where you are walking, how you see Bioinástica in a few years?
I am a partner at Academia Orlando Cani along with Professor Marcelo Barros and we have the privilege of maintaining this incredible place, which this year is completing 45 of activities. We are a about to launch the new teacher's training program to prepare those interested in teaching the method. We are also working to bring Bioginástica back into the main congresses of physical activity and training. Our goal is to reach more people and make the method available as a differentiated tool for Physical Education and health professionals.
Have you thought about doing workshops in Europe, what is next?
We sure want to take Bioginástica the USA and Europe. We already held workshops in Lisbon, New York, Los Angeles, and a few other places abroad. Often we get requests from athletes, Physical Education and health professionals and we have plans to hold more workshops and also teachers' training in other countries in the future.
Any publication (books …) about Art? It would be very interesting a biography of Master Orlando Cani.
Orlando and I are working together on a book right now to explain the Bioginástica method and tell its origins. Orlando's full biography may be our next project once we launch this book.
Anything you want to say to our readers?
I want to thank José Diaz and Fightlosofy for their interest in the method. Orlando was far ahead of its time when it idealized the Bioginástica and we see how it is still relevant these days when we analyze its ideas of training.
We are always available to provide information, offer courses and training, and participate in events. Our doors will always be open to everyone who wants to come visit us and train with us. Just get in touch through the email academiaorlandocani.com.br.

The St. Louis County Law Library has a new name and a new location.
Rededicated Tuesday as the "Alan Mitchell Law
Library," this public resource has moved from a cramped room on the fifth floor of the St. Louis County Courthouse in Duluth to a ground-level
location, just steps from the building's main entrance.
With the move, the Law Library Board of Trustees and St. Louis County Board voted to rename the
125-year-old library in honor of Mitchell, who served as county attorney for 28 years and helped establish sustainable funding for the once debt-ridden library.
"This is truly a bright day," St. Louis County Commissioner Steve Raukar said. "There is a tremendous service the public will receive from this valued asset. It didn't come without a lot of work, a lot of toil, a lot of innovation and a lot of thinking outside the box by people like Al Mitchell to bring it to a stable situation."
With the new space, the law library will see a return to full-time staffing. The Law Library Board has in place a contract with the Legal Aid Service of Northeastern Minnesota, which will staff the library with an attorney from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Mondays through Fridays.
The library offers historic and current legal books, online services and self-help materials.
While it was once an integral resource for attorneys, the library's focus has shifted in recent years. Lawyers now have access to state statues and case law at the click of a computer mouse. But many people represent themselves in court, and the law library provides resources that are otherwise unavailable, supporters said.
"One of the judiciary's goals is to provide access to justice," 6th Judicial District Assistant Chief Judge Gary Pagliaccetti said. "It's these county law libraries that allow that to happen. The trust in the system can only come from people having full understanding and knowledge of how the system works."
Mitchell, 68, served as county attorney from 1979 to 2006 and was an original member of the Law Library Board. After he was narrowly unseated by challenger Melanie Ford in 2006, Mitchell served a brief stint as county administrator, but has since dropped out of the public eye.
Mitchell said he reluctantly agreed to accept the library's naming honors, but only with the understanding that the honor is shared with many others who ardently supported the library.
"There were many who served on the Law Library Board before me and after me that have probably done more in respect to the library itself," he told a crowd at the dedication ceremony. "There are others who perhaps deserved it more than I do and their service should be recognized."
Don Erickson, a library trustee and attorney at Fryberger, Buchanan, Smith & Frederick law office, recalled Mitchell's work to bring the library out of deep debt - over $150,000 by the end of 2004. Initially, a $10 filing fee was added to all criminal and civil cases. However, it was not until Mitchell spearheaded an initiative to add a $2 fee to all parking tickets within the county that the library became sustainable, Erickson said.
"That actually added more funding than the filing fees did," Erickson said. "Today, the law library is on solid financial ground thanks to these initial members that had the foresight and vision to save the law library and bring it into the 21st century."
St. Louis County also houses public law libraries with part-time staffing in the Virginia and Hibbing courthouses.
The St. Louis County Law Library has a new name and a new location.

I haven't had a lot of time to play with 3.0 lately but I noticed in the post I have linked that there is a new cmdlet called "Invoke-WebRequest". The referencing TechNet article for the cmdlet is here. I can only imagine the possibilities with parsing through web data with this cmdlet. You can return body text, field values, etc all in an object-oriented fashion. I will try to post an example early next week as I defintely plan on playing with this!! I was doing something similar in 2.0 but it was a nightmare having to custom write a bunch of code that this new cmdlet will eliminate the need for. Stay tuned!!!

- Harsha says Sri Lanka to get GSP Plus early next year
- Exporters agree to meet condition of increased employee salaries, EPF and ETF
- Sri Lankans exporting to EU to benefit by 12%
- No fresh conditions imposed on Sri Lanka

The European Union (EU) is set to once again grant Sri Lanka the GSP Plus concession during the first quarter of next year or some time thereafter, Deputy Minister of Policy Planning and Economic Development Dr. Harsha de Silva said yesterday.
Speaking to the media at Temple Trees following discussions held between apparel exporters and Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, Dr. de Silva said the concession would benefit those exporting to the EU by at least 12%.
There is a catch, however. According to Dr. de Silva, exporters must increase the wages they pay their employees and also increase their EPF and ETF contributions.
"The exporters have agreed unanimously to this. We are extremely happy to have been able to come to this agreement, and we are hopeful that not only some of the companies that have been already shut down will reopen, but the existing companies will be able to expand their services and create better paying jobs in the near future," he said.
Responding to a question by the Daily FT, the Deputy Minister said the EU had not imposed any fresh conditions on the country in granting the GSP Plus concession.
"We have been working with the EU very closely. The Prime Minister's Ministry of Policy Planning and Economic Affairs has been taking the lead. And I have personally met with the high official of the EU. We are very hopeful that within a matter of months Sri Lanka will be able to get the GSP Plus back," he said.
Sri Lanka need not adhere to any new commitments to qualify for the facility, other than agreements already entered into in order to ensure that there is fair play, equity and justice in the country, he added.
Addressing concerns about investors opting to set up shop in Bangladesh following the loss of GSP Plus and high production costs in Sri Lanka, Dr. de Silva said that the Government was not interested in competing with Bangladesh at the lower end of the market, but instead the plan was to create a highly competitive economy.
"In fact, what we want to create is the most competitive economy in this part of the world. So if we are going to be able to add greater value to apparels, if we can brand the apparels, if we can sell in the higher end of the market, I think we'll have a natural niche. We are obviously unable to compete with Bangladesh at the low end of the market and we don't want to compete with Bangladesh at the low end of the market. That is not our objective. Our objective is to create a highly competitive economy," he said.
Elaborating on this, the Deputy Minister said that in creating a highly competitive economy, Sri Lanka would have to start producing highly competitive goods and services, by infusing more technology, new innovations and new ways of doing business.
"We are not going to be too worried about the business we lost to Bangladesh or Vietnam in terms of the wage differentials. We want to attract new investors, new types of businesses, value-added products and services," he said.
Responding to a question about higher salaries in Sri Lanka's export industry in comparison to countries like Bangladesh and Vietnam possibly dissuading potential investors, Dr. de Silva said that this was a myth and that, in fact, salaries in this country needed to be increased.
"The absolute amount of the salary is immaterial. What we are looking for are high salaries. Certainly we want to pay high salaries for Sri Lankans. We don't want to create a Sri Lanka with low salaries. But in order to pay high salaries, we'll have to produce goods and services that are competitive and are of higher quality and of higher value. That is what we want to do. We are not going to be pushed into this silly trap of saying 'no, you can't pay salaries, because already costs are high and we are competing in the market for low cost, low value products.' We have to move away from this myth that salaries are high in Sri Lanka. Salaries in Sri Lanka are not high and must increase manifold. But in order to do that we have to create competitive industries," he said.

Zimbabwe Farmers' Union and Barclays Bank, supported by the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education launched the second phase of the Fit For Life Young Farmers' Clubs Entrepreneurship and Empowerment project.

In a world where changes in weather patterns are the order of the day, strategies to counter the changes have to be fashioned in order for humanity to survive.
Climate change; reduction in rainfall days, heavy destructive down pours that are usually followed by long dry spells have caused the traditional farming methods to be ineffective leaving many families in hunger and dire poverty.

The School Day
School Times

How to find the right travel agent in Vietnam
December 22, 2017 by Mr Linh's Adventures Team
A country with stunning landscapes, vibrant communities and incredible culture, Vietnam makes it to the top of many travellers' wish lists for good reasons. But how can you get to know the heart of the country when you visit? Here are our tips on finding a Vietnam travel agent to help you get the most out of your trip.
Finding the right Vietnam travel agent for your trip can make or break the experience and memories you come away with. How can you find a company that will take you off-the-beaten-track, and not just along the well-trodden backpacker routes? And how can you avoid touts and scammers? Here are our top tips to help you get the most out of your Vietnam experience.
1. Do your research
Before booking a Vietnam travel agent, see what other people have said about them. A good quality travel agency will have a strong digital footprint and lots of great reviews. Start off on the travel agency's website, then read reviews on TripAdvisor and look at the company's social media channels. Look at how far back the comments and reviews date back – beware of companies with only a couple of recent reviews. A good Vietnam travel agent will have a lot of reviews and comments from their happy customers.
2. Vietnam travel agency credentials
As well as looking at what customers say about your chosen Vietnam travel agent, look at what other credentials the company has. For example, do they hold tourism qualifications and credentials? Look into anything else that sets a particular travel agency apart from others. For example, choosing a family-run travel agency means you're directly supporting Vietnam's people and economy, and is a much more ethical way to travel.
3. Details of the Vietnam travel experiences
Once you're satisfied with the legitimacy of the Vietnam travel agent you're interested in booking with, have a detailed look at the travel experiences they are offering. There are lots of companies that offer standard trips, such as a route between Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. While this is great, look for opportunities for getting off-the-beaten-track in Vietnam too. Adding some more authentic travel experiences into your trip – such as homestays, jungle adventures and visiting more remote villages – will make a great Vietnam trip exceptional.
4. Book direct
If you've found a travel agency in Vietnam that feels like the perfect fit for you, book directly with that company. This avoids problems with touts and scammers – who may falsely advertise a tour with a legitimate company, but actually send you on a trip with a less credible tour operator. Booking directly with your chosen travel agency also cuts out middlemen, ensuring 100% of your money goes to that local company and the local people behind it.
We believe in our country and want all visitors to Vietnam to have the best time possible. At Mr Linh's Adventures, we're a local and
family-run company
specialising in off-the-beaten-track and jungle adventures. Many of our Vietnam travel experiences are not available elsewhere. We have hundreds of great reviews on
both for our tours and
experiences, while our many social media followers recommend us to their friends. We regularly visit
travel fairs around the world
, working closely with
Vietnam Tourism
to promote our country.

Thank you to Krome Studio for sponsoring this post, opinions are my own.
If you are like me, you have loads of photos that you took on your phone that you would love to frame. Except. Except something is going on somewhere in the photo that makes it less than frame-worthy. Maybe there is a garbage truck in the background. Maybe your unfolded laundry sits in a pile in the background. Maybe someone photo bombed it. Maybe your dog keeps walking into the frame. Or maybe someone's crotch is in the picture. Even the most well-planned photo in the lives of a busy family seems to end up less-than-perfect. And most of us just don't have the tools or the skills to fix it.
Take this photo of my dad and my kids that I absolutely cherish.
It's a great photo. One of the last ones my kids would get to take with their grandfather at one of his most favorite places ever – Wrigley Field. But seriously did I really need to capture the crotches of the people behind them? So as much as I wanted to frame this photo, the less-than-ideal background has kept me from investing in a larger print of this otherwise great photo.
Until now.
Now I have this amazing app called Krome Studio and it has changed everything.
About Krome Studio
Krome Studio is an app that you can access on your PC or smartphone (you can get it from the App Store or the Google Play Store) and easily upload your favorite, though less-than-perfect photo. The Krome elves then work their magic and professionally edit your photo and turn less-than-perfect into "wow, did you hire a professional photographer?". The Krome editors can change the background, lighten and brighten a dark image, correct colors, change colors and more.
Maybe you have an awesome picture of your kids all decked out in holiday sweaters but you took the photo in the kitchen but wish you had taken it outside in the freshly fallen snow. Or maybe you captured a beautiful once-in-a-lifetime shot of your child holding a butterfly and the lighting was bad. Whatever "what-if" you can imagine for the hundreds (if not thousands) of photos you have taken, Krome artists can make a reality.
The finished product may look like it cost hundred of dollars but Krome starts at only $4.99 for a basic Design with a new background, $9.99 for a Custom Design with a new background, 1 re-edit and a custom edit request + add-on and $14.99 for a Pro Design with 2 re-edits and a custom edit request + 2 add-ons.
Check out my 'Kromed' photo of my kids and my dad.
Isn't it awesome? I couldn't even envision it looking that good, I was so excited when I saw it!
How to use Krome Studio
It's super easy to use Krome. You head over to the app or the website here: Krome Studio and upload your photo. You can get ideas by looking through their lookbook and specify a certain background or give them a description of what you would like and let them choose a background for you.
Krome will tell you based upon the resolution of your photo, what you can use the photo for.
You then provide any instructions and wait for Krome to send you your edited photo. It took only a couple of hours for me to receive my edited photo.
I liked the photo so much, I had them do a couple more!
This is a picture of my dad when he was very young. I asked them to edit the background so it looked like he was at a vintage baseball game. I also asked them to clean up the obviously damaged parts of the photo.
Awesome right? I was giddy when I saw this, it's like they read my mind.
Here's another one I had them edit. My daughter was standing on the grass in her Christmas outfit. I asked them to brighten it up and put her against a more fitting winter background.
I loved this one too! What they couldn't know is that in the original photo you can't see it but just off to the right is the evergreen tree we planted when we moved into our house and it looks almost like the one in the edited photo.
And finally I commissioned one last photo, a picture of my nephew and my kids on the day he graduated from Navy Boot Camp in Great Lakes, Illinois. I asked them to change the background to a naval ship scene.
Krome Studios is a family owned company out of California. They know how valuable and important your memories are and they want to help you unleash their full potential. They truly offer professional editing for a very affordable price.
How would you use Krome? Do you have less-than-perfect photos you want to frame? What about Christmas cards? You could take a great shot of your kids and completely change the look with a holiday background perfect to share with family and friends.

Tips for your Fresh 48 SessionJuly 9, 2019
The first 48 hours after the birth of your baby is one of the most magical times of your life. Seeing their squishy faces, snuggling their warm, fuzzy bodies, and introducing them to their older siblings is something you always want to remember, which is why you hired a photographer. Now you want to make sure the session comes off without a hitch. Here are some tips to do just that!

Mericar reached out to me on Instagram and when she told me she was planning on doing a waterbirth, I was so in that I was practically in the tub with her (see what I did there?) We met up at Twisted Sugar and enjoyed a cookie or two while we talked about what she could expect from me as her photographer and what she was hoping for with her birth.
Fast forward a couple of months and this appeared in my messenger inbox:

Thermochromic substances are materials that change colour depending on the temperature. Thermochromic 3D printing filaments are modified versions of common filament plastics, like ABS. The effect of the modification is that the 3D printed product will change colour when exposed to a temperature change.
Whilst the thermochrome effect can be used for purely aesthetic application (think 'mood rings'), it also has some very useful applications from a functional perspective. One of these potential applications is as an indirect temperature monitoring system to easily visualise temperature changes. The colour change and the temperature that this happens at will depends entirely on how the filament has been manufactured and can be checked on the specific Technical Data Sheet.
