2 Tips To Keep Stainless Crowns From Loosening Prematurely
Stainless steel crowns can be used at any age in order to control tooth decay. However, they are commonly found in younger children. Once in place, the stainless steel crown will work to protect contaminants from penetrating the tooth. The material is extremely durable but with constant wear and tear, it will eventually loosen. A loosened crown is dangerous since it can allow for food and other particles to seep into the tooth. If a loosened stainless crown goes undetected for too long, then this can cause a large amount of damage. Therefore, it is important to take steps to ensure your stainless steel crown does not loosen. Fortunately, there are a few tips you can use to ensure this.
Always Protect Your Teeth During Sports
High impact sporting activities are one of the easiest ways to cause dental issues. A high impact collision will not only break a tooth but it will also cause a crown to loosen. This happens because your bottom and upper teeth collide during the collision. This pulls on your stainless steel crown and moves it out of place. In order to prevent this, you need a protective barrier between your two sets of teeth. This can be established by wearing a mouthguard while playing sports. The mouthguard will give your stainless steel some cushion when it comes into contact with other teeth. This will prevent any pulling aggravation.
It is common to use your teeth to bite down on objects that are not considered to be food. This includes using your teeth to open bottles, cans or other objects. This may help you in the short-term but it actually destroys your teeth in the long term. If you are wearing a crown, then this act pulls on the crown. The crown is usually cemented in place. Using your teeth to bite down on hard objects will pull your crown away from the cement. The more often that you do this the looser that your crown will become until it falls off on its own. Therefore, you should try to only use your teeth to eat. In addition, you should be careful of hard foods as these foods can cause damage to your crown as well.
Wearing a stainless steel dental crown can help to preserve the health of your tooth. However, poor habits can compromise your crown and cause it to loosen. Use these tips to make sure this is avoided.

Mining Fill Trends
GIS was used to compile a comprehensive database of spoil and refuse fills constructed in West Virginia as of 2012. Satellite and aerial photography was used to identify construction status of each fill in 1984, 1990, 1996, 2003, 2009 and 2012. This allowed an analysis of trends in fill construction to be plotted over time. A 1:24,000 scale stream network was augmented to create consistent start points for intermittent and perennial streams, based on median drainage areas calculated from field research conducted by the USGS in the state's southern coalfield.
Mapping Vegetation Change
This paper demonstrated the potential for using multi-date satellite images to monitor and quantify vegetation changes occurring on a reclaimed surface mine. Two Quickbird image sets, acquired in 2003 and 2007, were used to identify vegetation trends and to map significant change events manifested during the four year interval. In particular, the analysis quantified the extent of defoliation in Black Locust, and estimated the expansion of Autumn Olive, within the boundary of the reclaimed mine. Presented at the 2009 American Society of Mining and Reclamation and Billings Land Reclamation Symposium Conference, May 30-June 5 2009, Billings MT.
Extraction and Characterization of Highwalls
Highwalls are features of past mining activity that can pose hazards to people or property. Inventories of high walls are developed by regulatory agencies charged with reclamation of abandoned mine lands predating federal regulation. These inventories were usually compiled prior to the advent of technologies such as LIDAR for mapping elevation, and Geographical Information Systems for conducting spatial analysis. This paper presents a method for compiling a mining highwall inventory using these technologies that can improve significantly on the accuracy and completeness of existing highwall inventories.
Remote Vegetation Change
An NDVI-based technique is presented that can estimate fractional vegetation cover on a reclaimed surface mine, producing less than 10 percent RMSE error when compared against 34 field sample sites. Presented at the Incorporating Geospatial Technologies into SMCRA Business Processes Conference, March 25-27 2008, Atlanta Ga.
Kanawha State Forest Well Accuracy
Two sources of Oil and Gas well locations in West Virginia-- the WVDEP Oracle database, and the Oil&Gas Information Service, are compared to a reference dataset of well locations in the Kanawha State Forest collected using differential GPS
Mining Drainage Changes
Elevation models created from LIDAR, photogrammetry, and hypsography were compared to determine whether changes in surface drainage patterns could be identified after mining had occurred. This research was conducted as part of a cooperative agreement with Office of Surface Mining, Charleston Field Office, and was featured in the agency's 2006 annual report.
Valley Fill Paper
This paper presents an analysis technique for comparing IFSAR elevation data acquired in 2003 to historical elevation models with the goal of identifying mining spoil structures, including valley fills and refuse impoundments. This analysis created an inventory of mining fill structures covering a nine-county area of southern West Virginia that was more comprehensive and accurate than inventories compiled from mining maps alone. Presented at the Advanced Integration of Geospatial Technologies in Mining and Reclamation Conference, December 7-9, 2004, Atlanta Ga
Lidar Fill Paper
A county-wide LIDAR dataset, and historical contour elevation data, is used to automatically delineate mining fills

A cessation of hostilities in Syria will take effect "within a week," World powers agreed at a meeting in Munich on Friday, stopping short of securing an immediate ceasefire in the war-torn nation.
Countries, including the United States, Russia, China, Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom, along with the International Syria Support Group (ISSG) comprising supporters and opponents of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad agreed to ensure humanitarian access to besieged areas this week.
The nations also agreed to ensure "Syrian-led and Syrian-owned political transition" based on the Geneva Communiqué, according to the official statement.
"What we have here are words on paper, what we need to see in the next few days are actions on the ground," US Secretary of State John Kerry said. "The progress we made today in Munich can and must improve the lives of the Syrian people".
According to the statement , delivery of humanitarian assistance to some besieged towns in Syria, mainly Deir Ez Zour, Fouah, Kafrayah, rural Damascus, Madaya, Mouadhimiyeh and Kafr Batna, is likely to commence on Friday itself.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Russian airstrikes will continue in Syria aimed at the Islamic State group and the Al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front.
The move to end hostilities in Syria comes after the Syrian Centre for Policy Research said in its report on Thursday that 11.5 percent of the country's population had been killed or injured in the five-year-old civil war.
Peace talks between the Syria government and the opposition that had kicked off in Geneva earlier this month had collapsed due to the Syrian regime's offensive on the town of Aleppo, which has been a rebel stronghold.
UN special envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura has announced a "temporary pause" in the Syria peace talks and said it will resume on Feb. 25.

Wins mean more than fan approval for Mourinho, says Nevin
The Portuguese manager, who won three league titles at Chelsea in two spells at the club, came under fire this week for an overly cautious display at Anfield on Monday when United ground out a goalless draw against Liverpool.
Nevin, a fans' favourite at Chelsea in the 1980s, said he would expect the Portuguese coach to do whatever it takes to claim three points on Sunday even if that means putting in another defensive display.
"Jose Mourinho over the years, and not just at Chelsea but at Real Madrid, Porto and even to some extent when he was in Italy, if he found a way to win he actually didn't care one way or the other if it was exciting, whether the fans liked it or not, or whether the owner liked it or not," Nevin told Reuters.
"Mourinho just wants to win, he wants to find a method for winning and if he thinks he knows a way, he will do that. As long as he wins and gets the points he needs then he'll do it."
While some of the pre-match focus has been on whether United captain Wayne Rooney will start or if his Chelsea counterpart John Terry is fit to return from a lengthy injury absence, Nevin feels the biggest battle at Stamford Bridge might not be on the pitch.
"I hate to say it, but it could be in the technical area. I think there are so many options that both Mourinho and (Chelsea manager Antonio) Conte have got," said the former Scotland international who swapped West London for Everton in 1988 after playing more than 250 games for Chelsea.
Former Italy and Juventus boss Conte joined Chelsea in the close season as the permanent replacement for Mourinho who was sacked following a dismal start to his last campaign at Stamford Bridge.
Nevin believes it is too early to assess Conte's reign at Chelsea, but says the Italian is taking positive steps towards developing the team.
He does not expect, however, his former club to be title contenders come May.
"I like what Conte is doing. There is a rebuild that has to be done at Chelsea, slowly and surely it'll be done but Conte is making a great start to that," Nevin said.
"Whether or not they'll have a chance of winning the League, it's not beyond them but I think it's quite unlikely."
The match could pitch Chelsea's Brazilian defender David Luiz against his former Paris St Germain team mate and United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic in one of a number of battles that Nevin is looking forward to.
"Chelsea will need Eden Hazard and Diego Costa at their best. As for Manchester United, Zlatan Ibrahimovic tends to show up for the big games and I expect he will give everything to this," said Nevin, who was voted Chelsea's Player of the Year in 1984 and 1987.
"It's going to be a tough one because he's going to come up against David Luiz and they were team mates last season. It'll be a tough one for Zlatan because since Luiz has returned he has been spectacular for Chelsea." -Reuters

ORLANDO -- Dwight Howard had 24 points and 18 rebounds in a bruising battle with Amare Stoudemire, and the Orlando Magic beat the New York Knicks 112-103 on Thursday night for their fifth straight win.
Stoudemire finished with 30 points, four rebounds and four assists but got into foul trouble early in a matchup of two of the NBA's best big men. Both were called for technical fouls, never shied away from contact and showed more offensive prowess than defensive pressure.
Howard just had more help.
J.J. Redick and Ryan Anderson had 14 points apiece, helping the Magic build a 20-point lead before halftime and hold on late. New York trimmed the deficit to two in the fourth quarter before the Magic pulled away for good.
Wilson Chandler had 29 points and Shawne Williams added 15 for the Knicks, who have lost five of seven.
This was the first meeting in the season series between the teams; their Nov. 2 game at Madison Square Garden was postponed because of safety concerns after debris fell into the arena during overnight cleaning of asbestos-related materials. The Magic were already in New York and had to fly back.
Maybe it was worth the wait.
Howard grabbed his own rebound late in the game and dunked over Stoudemire, who was late getting over to the play. Stoudemire answered on the next possession, converting a three-point play over Howard to cut Orlando's lead to 98-96 and pumping his chest in celebration.
A few plays later, Hedo Turkoglu made a 3-pointer over Stoudemire. Then Howard hit a pair of free throws and Orlando was ahead by nine with a minute left. And just for an exclamation point, Howard had a three-point play over Stoudemire in the final minute that brought fans to their feet.
The two big men seemed to feed off the matchup and weren't shy about being physical.
Howard picked up his NBA-leading 12th technical foul in the first quarter for arguing with officials. At one point, Stoudemire even shoved Howard in the post.
The words were often too much and officials did everything they could to control play. Stoudemire picked up a technical foul in the second quarter after banging bodies with Howard and expressing his displeasure for being called for holding.
After Stoudemire got his third foul with almost six minutes remaining in the second quarter, the Magic went on a 23-10 run led by Howard to go ahead 62-42. By the time New York recovered, it was too late.
NOTES: Magic assistant coach and former Knicks center Patrick Ewing was asked before the game if anything had changed in his hopes of becoming an NBA head coach. "I'm still waiting on that call," he said. ... Stoudemire, who was a high school star in the Orlando area, was cheered during pregame introductions.

STEM is the future!
< Main Articles page
"Everything is physics and math."
~ Katherine Johnson
Infamous criminal Willie Sutton was once asked why he robbed banks, and he allegedly responded, "Because that's where the money is". While the credit to that quote does not belong to Sutton, but rather an over-zelous journalist, it has become so well known that a handful of social scientists dubbed the process of considering the obvious first as "Sutton's Law". So now we ask, why should women of color join STEM programs? Because that's where the jobs are.
According to research by Girls Who Code, technology jobs are the fastest growing sector in this country but girls are being left behind. With 1.5 million computing jobs to fill by 2020, the U.S. is only expected to produce enough qualified candidates to fill just 29 percent. According to a 2015 report by the National Science Foundation, only 24 percent of computer scientists are women and fewer than 10 percent are women of color.
The New York Urban League has always had its pulse on what employment gaps need to be filled and what doors they can help open for the community they serve. Through a robust STEM program, the NYUL helps parents see opportunities for their children and teaches children Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math to shape their futures.
Never too young for STEM
Autumn Piper first came to the New York Urban League in 2015 when she attended their annual, HSBCU Fair. "I was only in junior high school, but my Mom really wanted me to plan ahead and make sure my grades were good and that I knew all my options." Autumn continues, "And now, I've got my list of schools that I really want to attend and I know the criteria I'll need to meet to attend." Now a sophomore in high school, Autumn's number one school on that list: Howard University.
For tenth grader Autumn Piper, the sciences have always been her passion and she knows medicine is in her future, "My number one goal for the future is to get my college degree, continue my studies and become an obstetrician." Autumn adds, "But that's not my only goal. I would love to be a research doctor and find the cures of different diseases that have touched my loved ones like Sickle Cell, Lupus and Cancer."
Autumn shares her experience at the NYUL STEAM Summer Camp, "It was kind of a mix of science and technology at the same time, but we learned so many different things: we made our own websites, we met with Start-Up companies in tech and we even learned how to do urban gardening. These are things I never would've learned in my regular school environment."
Autumn's mother, Alma, shares her thoughts, "Autumn always loved science. She would Google medical terms and watch YouTube videos on chemical reactions, but she was always a quiet kid who was very to herself. After this program, Autumn become a kid who can now stand in front of people and talk and be really social. Autumn is an excellent speaker; she's extremely eloquent and we might never have heard her voice if it wasn't for this program."
Arva Rice, President of the NYUL discusses their goals: "When it comes to the STEAM Summer Day Camp it's really about exposing young people to opportunities in these fields. So it's being able to once again take them back to Google, Microsoft, Etsy and be able to see people of color; women of color in those fields so kids can break through that idea notion of what a scientist looks like." She adds, "We also encourage parental involvement because it's hard to encourage your young person to go into a career that you have no idea what that career could be or what is required to be successful in that area."
Autumn's mother adds, "It showed my daughter that she does not have to be a certain race or look a certain way to go into STEM and now she is preparing for a path to Science and the fact that the NYUL offers this at no cost is incredible, because it has been a real blessing on so many levels."
The future is female
Jeanine Conley, a shareholder in the Philadelphia and New York offices of Littler and the Chair of the NYUL board, discusses the goals that the organization has for expanding their STEM programs. "Through our Civil Rights 2.0 Initiative, we are looking to establish NYUL as a hub where innovative STEM programs are implemented, incubated and people of color in the industry come together." She expands on this campaign, "We would like to create a state of the art computer lab and work with key sponsors in the STEM field to create effective programming that addresses their areas of need." In short, the NYUL looks to create a strong pipeline so that students can go from the classroom to the workforce. In order to realize this vision, the NYUL looks to its community, the sponsors who provide the funding and the employment opportunities, as well as the students, like Autumn, who represents the future of STEM jobs.
What makes Autumn's journey even more profound is the woman in history who inspires Autumn the most: Alma, her Mother. "For a while, when I was in middle school, my Mom was struggling for work and we ended up living in a shelter. Every day, I saw in her eyes she wanted to get out of there; she wanted me out of there. My Mom never stopped fighting for me, for us. She would keep me focused on my studies and say, 'the struggle is not forever, but my grades on my transcript are' and so I'd keep at it."
Autumn continues, "I have learned from my mother to never listen to anyone else about your worth, because you're worth much more than they would ever think." Autumn's Mom now has a good job, an apartment and Autumn is thriving. Autumn reflects on her Mom's strength, "She inspires me every day to never give up," she adds, "and the Urban League, they taught me that I can be whatever I can see myself being."

It is all real until it is not, it is each person's task to transform reality into truth one moment at a time. Pretending that your reality isn't real, because you want a different reality to be true, doesn't make it less real in the moment. What is truth you ask? Truth is the inside-out integration of the outside-in dualistic opposites, it is a pattern of relating that each person must find within them, however, once a truth is externalized, it again becomes a very real prison. ~Aline & Nathan

Effective Digital Marketing? Start with Creative.
June 27, 2014 in Marketing, Social Media | Tags: advertising, Creative, Digital, digital marketing, Marketing, Social Media | by Michael Tyre | Leave a comment
McKinsey & Company recently pointed out that companies need to approach digital marketing differently, on a fundamental level. Among their points in "The 7 Habits of Highly-Effective Digital Enterprises" McKinsey notes the ineffectiveness of companies that assign digital marketing to a staffer or set up an internal team. They suggest it is a skill set to be acquired through external resource.
Let's look at this another way. Social media is the latest marketing touchpoint. Advertising, public relations, direct marketing, web development, and sales promotion are among social media's predecessors. How many companies attempt to assign those duties to a staffer? Very few. It is arguable that very few companies execute these marketing touch points well internally.
The missing ingredient? The creative talent.
Why creative talent largely resides outside companies is a discussion for another day, but the work of very few in-house departments approaches that of outside agencies. The same applies to social media. Like the others, social media is a distinct and separate marketing skill. Creative acumen is a critical issue in social campaigns as well. Companies that simply push social media off to someone internally run counter to historical precedent and risk falling behind competitively.

Extended Shelf Life for: Pear Skins, Apple Skins and Lemon PeelI made Apple Cider Vinegar, it was easy and turned out a DELICIOUS pot of vinegar of which the man and I have enjoyed a daily shot (which is beneficial in terms of boosting our immune system AND regulating our blood sugar, meaning we aren't starving 2 hours after breakfast - awweeesome!)
Anyway, in learning to make Apple Cider Vinegar, I discovered that basically the scraps of any fruit or veggie can easily and quickly be turned into a health-packed (and surprisingly delicious) vinegar product.
So, with some aging apples, pears and another few lemons I set to work with another batch of vinegar with was the cores and skins of a few pears, a few more apples and the peel of a single lemon. I put these scraps into our large crock and covered with water and sugar (one quart of water + 1/4 cup of sugar) until the peels were completely covered. Cover the crock with cheesecloth, let set in room temperature (60-70 Fahrenheit) for about a week before straining out the peels, transferring the liquid to another crock (or glass jars) and covering with cheese cloth for another 2-3 weeks until you have the degree of fermentation and vinegary taste that you love and desire. The lemon peel here makes the vinegar quite tart and sour, but completely enjoyable!


text: MUSIC Lady Gaga Sale Slows Down Amazon Servers 4:24 PM PDT 5/23/2011 by THR staff FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Interscope Records A high volume of traffic Monday causes delays for fans trying to download the album for 99 cents. Lady Gaga fans are gaga for her latest album ... in a big way. In an attempt to promote its new Cloud Drive service, Amazon offered a one-day sale of the MP3 version of the singer's latest album, Born This Way, for 99 cents on Monday. (That's $11 less than the price at iTunes.) But by early afternoon, the company's servers stalled, and many users were unable to download or listen to the album in full. The annoyed customers complained on Twitter. Said one customer: "I guess next time I will pay full price and get the album immediately on iTunes." In a Tweet, Amazon responded: "We're currently experiencing very high volume. If you order today, you will get the full @ladygaga album for $.99. Thanks for your patience." As for the album itself, it is getting mostly mixed reviews. A majority of Amazon users' reviews for the album were poor. Critics are split. Elysa Gardner of USA Today gave Born This Way **½ out of four stars. She wondered whether Gaga was just trying to "milk our fascination" with her sexually-driven songs. BBC Music's Ian Wade says that it is "certainly not the greatest album ever made," but he notes that "it's a storming collection of high-concept pop brilliance designed to soundtrack every preposterously tremendous Gaga moment for the next 18 months."

Boston missed 80 on Saturday, but dew points climbed throughout the day. Sunday will be even more humid with dew points in the low 70s. With high dew points coupled with temperatures in the low to mid 80s, it will feel more like July than September.
A cold front will be moving through the region tomorrow. That cold front is triggering thunderstorms from Toronto down to Houston! Showers and thunderstorms will likely weaken tonight, but could re-fire Sunday. We're not expecting severe weather, but a few downpours are likely (late Sunday morning into the early afternoon). Rainfall amounts will likely stay below a half inch.
Once the cold from passes to the east, dew points will drop from the 70s into the 40s by Monday morning. It will feel like fall most of the week - highs in the 70s, lows in the 40s and 50s.
In-depth news coverage of the Greater Boston Area.

Lindelof on Blockbuster Screenwriting
With that in mind, I've given Lindelof—who's written some hugely embiggened pictures and successfully wrestled others down to human scale—a challenge that only a five-star general in Hollywood's elite fantasy screenwriting corps would have the chops to attempt: Pitch us a summer blockbuster based on something very, very unblockbustery, a simple American tall tale. Let's say, the ballad of folk hero John Henry: the nineteenth-century ex-slave who raced a steam-tunneler through a mountain, won, and perished, the first martyr in the great war twixt Man and Machine. Lindelof, not missing a beat, tongue firmly in cheek but mind fully engaged, dives in—no notes, no pauses, barely stopping for breath. Then he goes even further, giving us anticipated revisions as the notes come in, as the blockbuster hormones surge, as Story Gravity takes hold. - Vulture
Save this in your read it later app of choice. It'a long read, but worth it.

CUSHING, Okla. (AP) — The massive oil storage complex at Cushing is nearing its operational capacity as oil inventories nationwide continue to rise.
Home to the nation's largest oil storage facility, Cushing's sprawling tank complex held more than 51.5 million barrels of oil as of March 6, The Oklahoman reported Sunday.
Oil inventories have grown for eight consecutive weeks as of Feb. 27, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. The buildup has averaged 7.7 million barrels a week, marking the largest such increase since at least 1982.
Storage at Cushing is up almost 25 percent over the past five weeks and 172 percent higher than the nearly 19 million barrels reported about five months ago. The oil storage facility at Cushing can hold about 80 million barrels.
As Cushing fills, companies are sending oil to other storage facilities throughout the country, including the Gulf Coast and west Texas.
Growing storage levels are helping hold down oil prices. After collapsing 59 percent in six months to a low of $44.45 on Jan. 28, the price of oil has increased gradually.
Some industry analysts have forecast oil prices to continue increasing throughout the year, but rising storage levels are threatening those bullish projections.
Growing storage levels are reflected in the EIA's updated short-term energy outlook. The agency raised its projection for Brent prices to average $59 a barrel in 2015 and $75 a barrel in 2016, with domestic prices averaging $52 a barrel in 2015 and $70 in 2016.
Part of the reason for the growing domestic storage is because refineries throughout the country are in their regular, biannual maintenance season, retooling to produce the more expensive, cleaner-burning summer blend fuel required by federal regulators. At best, the maintenance process requires one or two weeks, but the maintenance often reveals larger problems that take longer to fix.

The Story of the Station Churches
The story of the Station Churches traces its roots as far back as the late second or early third century. The Bishop of Rome would celebrate the liturgies of the Church year at various churches throughout the city. Since Rome was made up of such diverse communities of many cultures, this practice served to unify the various groups into a more cohesive whole. Once Christianity became legal in 313 A.D. and public worship was permitted, feast days were celebrated at churches with a special link to that celebration. Many of the churches of Rome held the relics of the early Christian martyrs and the memory of the early history of the church in Rome. As time passed the schedule of these visits, which earlier had followed an informal order, took on a more formalized structure. By the last half of the fifth century, a fairly fixed calendar was developed, having the order of the places at which the pope would celebrate Mass within the city of Rome throughout the year. During Lent, the stations were originally organized so that the Masses would be held in different areas of the city each day.
The order of the Station Churches has undergone several changes over time. The current order followed in Rome was fixed around the time of the Council of Trent, with a few changes made since that time. Other cities such as Jerusalem, Constantinople, and Milan once had similar station liturgies. Today Rome is the only city that continues these in some regular form during the Lenten season. The Station Churches come down to us like a monument of the early church, a living connection to those days when the witness of the martyrs was still fresh and the echo of the apostles' voices could still be heard in the city streets.
The Station Churches of Mercer County is an opportunity for us to glean a bit of history as we make our way to the various churches throughout our county. Beginning at St. James in Pennington, we move throughout Mercer County visiting six different parish churches. As we move from church to church we can imagine the thousands of people who have journeyed to these churches especially during the Lenten season to offer their prayer and worship. We can unite our prayers with theirs and join our voices with this great crowd of witnesses who over the past two hundred years have found many ways to give glory to God, and public witness to their Catholic Faith. During this Lenten season. we can intensify our resolve to be a sign of unity and an instrument of peace in Mercer county and throughout the world.
Each Church that we will visit has a special history and its own particular treasures. Each has been the place of baptisms, confirmations, weddings, funerals and a place where countless numbers have encountered God. This Lenten pilgrimage takes us to Holy Ground throughout Mercer County. Join in as many visits as you are able, asking God's blessing on all who journey with you through this Lenten Pilgrimage of 2019.

0. List of contents
1. Preface
Some time ago I'd an opportunity to play around with BBB. The program presented in this article is collecting data from DS18B20 sensors and stores them in sqlite database. Data is accessible via http (jQuery mobile). I was in hurry while writing the code, so article's content might seem a bit messy. Additionally you may set an alarm, whenever temperature exceeds defined boundaries you'll be notified by email.
2. Requirements
- Gcc compiler
- libmicrohttpd
- msmtp
- sqlite
- JQuery mobile
- BeagleBone Black
- build-essential (make etc.)
- a few sensors DS18B20
- a few 4.7 kOhm resistors
3. DTBO, w1 driver
Reading data is handled by "w1" kernel module. In order to load that module with proper configuration I have used the device tree structure available in linux kernel from the version 3.8. as below:
/dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "ti,beaglebone", "ti,beaglebone-black"; part-number = "BB-W1"; version = "00A0"; /* state the resources this cape uses */ exclusive-use = /* the pin header uses */ "P9.22", /* the hardware IP uses */ "gpio0_2"; fragment@0 { target = <&am33xx_pinmux>; __overlay__ { dallas_w1_pins: pinmux_dallas_w1_pins { pinctrl-single,pins = < 0x150 0x37 >; }; }; }; fragment@1 { target = <&ocp>; __overlay__ { onewire@0 { compatible = "w1-gpio"; pinctrl-names = "default"; pinctrl-0 = <&dallas_w1_pins>; status = "okay"; gpios = <&gpio1 2 0>; }; }; }; };
That configuration was compiled to dtbo object which is loaded as kernel module, commands:
dtc -O dtb -o BB-W1-00A0.dtbo -b 0 -@ BB-W1-00A0.dts cp BB-W1-00A0.dtbo /lib/firmware/ echo BB-W1:00A0 > /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slots
You may check your configuration by executing:
cat /sys/bus/w1/devices/DEVICE_ID/w1_slave
4. Wiring
The picture below presents how to wire aith arduino, but the same schema may be applied to beaglebone black. We just connect to specified GPIO port (i.e P9.22).
Pictures below show how I did it:
4. Server
The main program works the followind way:
- Program is executed in a http server mode (using libmicrohttpd)
- The thread (which collects the data from sensors) is run and saves data to sqlite db
(if not exists, then is created)
- If htttp request comes, it is parsed and proper action is performed
- If sensor will notice temperature out of bound then the mail is sent to the user. (via msmtp)
Built-in http server also handles images, js, css, html files.
Current data are update via post request (every 2 seconds is sent from the client – polling).
5. Frontend
Frontend is fairly simple. Just open your browser on address pointing to your BBB and you're done.

Something I have always struggled with is getting ready quickly, which if you read my Get Ready With Me post, is no surprise! I am super slow at everything, far too relaxed until the last minute and so disorganised that I never know where my makeup or hair products are. I end up with products sprawled across the dressing table (not really a dressing table, but we'll go with it), straighteners and curlers placed strategically while they cool down, and I'm never able to find the lip colour that I know will go so perfectly! Basically, it's a nightmare.
I decided to change all of this recently, and it's really working out so I thought I'd share how.
Sorting Products
I don't yet have a dressing table as such, so please don't judge my rubbish arrangement of storage (rental properties are really awkward when you're supplied with LOADS of furniture, none of which you want), but it's what works to make me quicker when getting ready.
The first thing I would suggest is keeping everything in one place. It sounds obvious, but I used to keep electricals on the other side of the room to my makeup because they were near the plug. But going back and forth meant products would spread along the way and my room would end up looking a mess before I'd even really started.
Now I have all of my skincare, hair products, and makeup in one area. I keep the hair products in a drawer, skincare in another and makeup on top of the dresser and am much more efficient. Getting rid of a lot of products also helped. There were some things that I never use, but thought I might, or products that were old, so I decided to throw away loads before organising. Now I only have things that I'll definitely use.
Makeup Storage
I know so many people have shown the clear, acrylic makeup storage, but when I realised how useful it would be to actually see all of my products, I decided to get some and see if it was worth the hype. I didn't realise this hype came from the Kardashians using them, but sometimes hype does mean good.
They're brilliant! They can be quite expensive, even online, but I managed to find some at bargain prices!
I put all of my usual everyday makeup in the main stand so it's easy to grab. There are a few sections, so I've kept palettes in one, eye make up in another, and so on. I also keep the lipstick holder in the main tray as there is space there and it keeps them a bit neater.
I bought the acrylic drawers for all of the extra stuff (after downsizing massively!), and now have one drawer for palettes, one for lip products, one for eye makeup, and one for awkwardly shaped nail polish that doesn't fit in it's stand (coming up!)
Nail Polish
The next handy bit of storage is these stands, which I use for nail polish.
I thought they were a bit pointless at first, but it's so much easier to look through them than digging through or tipping out a box or bag. I keep all of the nail polish stands neatly in a drawer and it's so easy to choose a colour now. I also have fast drying nail spray from Poundland that is just incredible. I can paint my nails and be out of the door in five minutes (including the painting!).
Having everything in clear storage has really helped me not only be faster at getting ready, but to also make use of everything. It's so easy to forget about certain makeup when it's hiding away. It means I experiment a bit more too.
Babyliss Curling Pods.
In the background of some pictures, you might also notice my Babyliss Curling Pods – these are a super fast way to curl your hair, so I keep them in sight to make me use them more. I simply leave them to heat up for a while, take 5 minutes to put them in, then do my make up, and by the time I've done some, they're ready to come out.
Makeup Mirror
Another thing that has made getting ready much easier is this illuminated, magnified mirror from Pebble Grey.
I usually just use my standing mirror to do my makeup because it's easier than smaller ones. I also never seem to find quite the right light in my home.
Do you ever get the horror of thinking you look good, then walking into well lit changing rooms or toilets when out? Well, no more!
The light on this mirror is amazingly bright, but not so bright you can't see what you're doing, it just highlights everything. And I mean everything!
When I first looked into the illuminated, magnified mirror, I was slightly horrified at my closeup. My eyebrows looked awful, my lips are too chapped, the lot! But, on first use with makeup, I did perfect eye make up and my skin looked flawless. I don't think I've ever done makeup so well. I also managed to pluck my eyebrows a lot easier, not having one hair out of place. I could experiment with eye makeup more and add more intricate details. As someone who could never claim to be great at makeup, I was seriously impressed with myself.
As the mirror is magnified by 3x, it was much easier to do makeup, meaning I made less mistakes and took a lot less time. It really speeds things up for me and I'll definitely use a lot. I honestly feel like it's changed the way I use my makeup for the better.
I also really like the design of this mirror. It's sleek, the switch is easily flickable when you have product on your hands and the flat front surface means nothing gets trapped in the edges – which has definitely been a design flaw on other mirrors I've used. I can't wait to set up my new dressing table with it (btw, I've decided I'm getting a new dressing table!).
The quality is not comparable with other illuminated mirrors I've used, it's much better, and any beauty bloggers or YouTubers will appreciate the ring light feature. I've also fallen a little bit in love with their Pebble Grey's Hollywood Mirrors. Look how perfect they could be together!
What do you do to make getting ready easier or quicker? Have you got any amazing products that help you along the way?

There's an interesting exchange on the issue of Fed induced liquidity over at Mish's blog.
Author Mish seems to think the idea that the Fed is able to pump money and liquidity into the system is a bit of a misconception. He decided to contact one of the writers at the Minyanville website and voice his objections to a statement about the "Fed pumping money" that appeared in the writer's article.
In Mish's view, "pumping money" is not exactly what is going on here. He makes his case clear to the writer in question, who decides that Mish has made an interesting argument that merits further study and added insight from his community members.
Here is a small excerpt from that debate, starting with Mish's point of view:
Here is how I look at things:
This Fed has chosen to defend an interest rate target. The Fed must supply all demand for credit at that target. If the Fed failed to do so the interest rate target would not be hit and interest rates would either rise or drop accordingly.
Now I am a big fan of abolishing the Fed and letting the market set rates, but as long as the Fed has an interest rate target (as opposed to a money supply target) the Fed is not pumping money per se, the Fed is defending an arbitrary target that it has established, no more no less. Thus it is not the Fed initiating anything, the Fed is merely meeting demand for money at the arbitrary target they set.
The last sentence of Mish's excerpted comments are key to my understanding of his position. In his view, with regards to money/liquidity creation, the Fed is not "initiating anything", they are simply "meeting demand for money at the arbitrary target they set".
Now here's the key rebuttal point that I got from one of the Minyanville members (quote from "Professor Succo"):
The Fed has set an artificially low interest rate. The market wants higher rates because it sees the problems these low rates are causing: that money is getting into speculation and very low grade credit. The Fed must supply enough new credit (repo) in order to keep rates from rising. The recent steepening of the yield curve is telling us that this is hard to do: they are doing too many repos trying to keep rates low.
If the Fed wants to stop pumping money they would admit that rates are too low and would raise them.
In fact the recent steepening is very alarming. It is due to defaults/foreclosures where lenders are saying they cannot continue to pass on to speculators/low quality borrowers all that new credit the fed is trying to force into the market.
In the Professor's view, the Fed is not "merely meeting demand" for money and credit; they are actively supplying it by force to the market.
Which view is correct? Beats me. I can say one thing, though. There is some interesting debate here, and this exchange will expose a few more people to some of the lesser-known mechanics of money creation and banking.

Though I am critical of Tegmark's style, his cartoon does illustrate one point succinctly! (Actually, going on some of his sometimes erratic reference notes, I very much doubt the artwork is by his own hand!)
[173] Maybe I'll draw a Level 2 right hand pane which has an "earth" & "people" that have evolved from very different physics!
This figure will be improved
Masses of elementary particles & coupling constants
Cosmological constant problem
My idea – Improve on Tegmark's 4 levels. Extra universes can occur completely independently of others, whether others are there or not. Clearly therefore there is no time's arrow correlation. If this is right, there should be 3 terms: Universe, Multiverse, Multi-universe. The multi-universe, or more correctly, the Multi-multiverse, is a kind of extension of the mathematical universe idea, ie. clearly a universe of no connection or knowledge to anything else. A fresh wave function.
The idea is that it QUALIFIES THE MEANING of Tegmark's Level 4. His Level 4 could be interpreted as a purely abstract, mathematical construct. I propose that it should be viewed as the whole multiverse over again, but with not even a quantum connection. Imagine it were created by a different God, one that had no idea there existed another God or Gods, and could never know of their existence. An infinity of Gods, all of whom thought they were the only one!!
The question, "What happened before the Big Bang?" Well, a pub discussion answer is – "It just happened, out of nothing, no space no time". My multi – multiverse is the same idea. If one multiverse "Just happens", so can another. And another.
The multiverse has a notional connection to a previously existing universe. A multi-multiverse would therefore not need any relation to being eg. another vacuum energy state. It just is.
Philosophically, IF there exists one universe, ERGO why should there not be another? If one happens, so can another, but not 'because' of the first one ie. not as a result of it, but just that if one can be there, why not another?
Make another box chart of this idea. The Universe is interconnected boxes, representing eg. different Hubble areas in the same multi – multiverse of multiverses. Totally unconnected to these boxes are other multi – multiverses, some mathematical, impossible to imagine they could exist, & others, possibly biophilic, but with no causal connection.
Tegmark does not make obvious these points, though clearly that is what is intended. A clear revision of multiverse terms.
Tegmark's multiverse works are accessible and his levels a useful device. But his numerous works are messy and imprecise in places. There is a need for a more succinct presentation of current thought on the multiverse.
Parameters of physics – more detail.
Black hole constraints on varying constants
SMOLIN/VILENKIN etc
Cyclic universe. Ekpyrotic/Inflation – TUROK/STEINHARDT.
Other hierarchy problems eg. weak/gravity
An in-depth analysis of physical constants is necessary, in the values for speed of light, Planck's constant, vacuum permittivity, mass of the electron and electric charge – with specific reference to the multiverse. The value for alpha is well documented, and is appropriate for this dissertation. cf. BARROW & many others. Further, some discussion on why is, say, gravity 'Gravity' and not 'Mass'? (Higgs etc.). What actually makes one 'Dimension' different to another dimension? What actually happens as mass and energy become one another? There's a whole library in there!
eg. BARROW (1998) Cosmologies with Varying Light-Speed http://arxiv.org/pdf/astro-ph/9811022v1.pdf
I need to understand how constants such as c, h, e, G & vacuum permittivity (as dimension-less values) are constrained within the mathematics, and are such 'constants' expected to be constant only within our Hubble sphere viz a viz Tegmark's Level 2. I am going to need some knowledge of GUT & string to discuss how such things could emerge dynamically.
Implications/Philosophy of cosmology – so what? etc.
What is meant by 'physical' reality?
Cosmological constant problem – a personal thought – does Lamda only influence the body of the universe as an 'anti-gravity' or 'repulsive force' parameter, or could it have any other role? We do use the term 'energy' to describe it, after all. Another role may add another reason to the Turok et al explanation for its decay, and allow us to remain on the Big Bang concordance model.
I haven't studied the Turok/Steinhardt ekpyrotic model, but it sounds a neat way to discuss the cosmological constant problem and do away with the Big Bang – or at least, going back to the start of the last cycle. There's still the first cycle to deal with. My first impressions, though, are it's a fudge!
9am 21/6/2013 An introduction. Assuming a big bang, we have a massive unit. To stop it withdrawing back to a black hole singularity we need a massive repulsive 'cosmological constant', & hence expansion. So why does inflation initiate?
So – was the universe born with the negative pressure? Lamda existed at the instant of big bang (otherwise it would never grow from the singularity)? And was then instrumental in inflation. Later, lamda controls how long the universe goes on.

I would like to apologize for my last story "Hanukkah (Chanukahh) — The Celebration of an Illuminating Miracle," moreover, for the lack of a story to go with the headline that got posted.
The "Festival of Lights" began at sunset today, December 2, and the first candle on the Menorah was lit. I would like to wish all the crafty people in the world who began celebrating the first day of remembrance and rededication, a most joyous eight days of love and celebration with family and friends.
I spent many hours searching the web and reading through much information, to learn more about the Jewish Festival of Lights. I so wanted to share with you, my fellow crafter, the history and traditions I learned about this celebration . I compiled this information, along with numerous craft ideas, recipes and activities to enjoy during this holiday time, in hopes that it might save you time doing the same.
In the "11th Hour," so to speak, I did something wrong with my fingers. Instead of posting my story, I inadvertently deleted the story, only presenting the headline here on Three Cats Crafts. This situation happened once before, but it was a topic that I decided could wait until another time to rewrite. This story is different. After about an hour of punishing myself for not paying better attention, I started rewriting. Although I didn't have to research everything all over, thanks to bookmarks, I did have to revisit everything again, pulling it together with photos and site addresses, to recreate my original story, or as close as I could get.
Well, the story is coming along great the second time around, but now I have run out of time for the evening. I hope you visit here again tomorrow, as I will be able to present this post then. Again, I hope everyone celebrating the holiday has many blessings over the next seven days remaining.
Your sincerely,

The Rio Cautário Federal RESEX was created in 2001 and is managed by Instituto Chco Mendes de Conservação de Biodiversidade (ICMBio). With an area of about 74,000 hectares, the Federal RESEX borders with the Rio Cautário State RESEX, which was created in 1995. Although both protected areas are managed by different jurisdictions, the Federal RESEX families can also be considered beneficiaries of the State RESEX and vice-versa.
The RESEXs contain 83 residential families whose main economic activity involves the extraction of the Brazil nut, yielding a production of over 150 tons annually. Another important extractive activity is of latex, which yields around 30 tons annually.
Objective: The project's objective is to support the community in identifying opportunities for improved harnessing of the potential of non-timber products in order to develop their local economy, ensuring their well-being and sustainability.
The specific objectives of the project entail:
- Forestry potential: studying the forestry potential of timber and non-timber products
- Business opportunities: identifying opportunities and defining strategies to develop business related timber and non-timber products
- Social organization: characterize social capital in order to mold business strategies to stimulate public participation
Expected results: Provide resources for the Federal and State RESEX beneficiary communities, allowing them to choose the best ways to take advantage of the productive potential they have in hand, improving the local quality of life while maintaining the forest standing.
