We're excited to debut this newly completed Frisco project located in the exclusive Newman Village community! Our vision was to create a unique, understated space to accent the modern feel of this Santa Barbara/Mediterranean-style home. Our clients love to entertain, and we worked to create a dynamic, experiential environment offering multiple areas and experiences to engage with.
As you walk up, an intimate front courtyard greets guests and invites you to sit and enjoy the morning sun. The courtyard's interesting angles added structural depth to the front entrance of the home. The backyard's destination firepit, offset and tucked away from the main entertaining spaces, offers seclusion and intimacy with a view of the pool area and home. The home's large covered back patio blurs the boundaries from inside and out, highlighting the pool as the focal point of the home. The pool area shines with an infinity edge spa, raised water feature with large custom stainless steel scupper, ledge stone veneer, mitered limestone accents, acid-washed concrete, and custom pottery.
It's no secret we're a passionate bunch, especially when it comes to maintaining the spaces we design and build. We're looking forward to caring for this beautiful environment as it grows and continuing the wonderful relationship we've built with our Santa Barbara Modern clients!

text: Noah – An annual report – by law – has to contain the financials – audits cannot even BEGIN until after the close of the financial year – and audits take time – and yes – I am also not all that pleased that the "friendly" audit report is not out yet – but asking for a report in Q1 that is required to contain financials is entirely unrealistic. Here is the thing – while the board of directors has the power to approve the financials, and then bring them to the floor for adoption by the members – until such time as they are approved and I would say adopted – they cannot realistically be included in the "friendly" annual report – because the financials actually *ARE* the annual report – the friendly version is what is added to that. So – either an annual report goes out with financials the community has not adopted – and by the way – annual reports are meant to be filed and once released are very difficult to withdraw and change – or – the community still gets to adopt the financials before they get put into formal publication – one way – you can have an early annual report – the other way – you can adopt the financials – but it can't be both – that's not the way it works. By the way – I have a serious and pressing concern that I will be raising on the members list about the adoption of the financials – because I only realized this AFTER the Nairobi meeting – under section 7.6.(i) the community has the power to adopt the financials – and unless I am mistaken – this was not done – so I would like to ask the board of directors when this community will get to adopt said financials. And while on the subject of transparency, I would also ask, that the board disclosure *ALL* the audit reports – inclusive of the management letters which form part of the auditor's report – as per section 7.6.(ii) which expressly says that the registered and resource members have the right to receive *ANY* auditor's report.

Don't forget to factor in transportation when making your decision.
Transportation Within Cancun
Public Transportation
Now, what's the most budget-friendly and efficient way to get around Cancun?
In Cancun, you'll primarily rely on city buses, which run frequently day and night.
A one-way bus fare typically costs around MXN 12 (USD 0.60).
Some buses even offer free Wi-Fi.
Hop on the R-1, R-2, or R-27 bus routes to reach most tourist destinations.
If you're heading to nearby towns for a day trip, catch a bus at the intersection of Avenida Tulum and Uxmal in downtown Cancun.
Destinations like Tulum and the famed Chichen Itza are easily accessible from here.
Just remember to carry Mexican Peso and keep your bus tickets as you can use them for discounts at local stores.
Car Rentals
Renting a car can allow you to explore Cancun and its surroundings at your own pace.
Keep in mind, however, that you must have insurance and a valid driver's license.
Additionally, be prepared for some crazy driving conditions and different road rules that you may be used to.
To avoid unpleasant surprises, scrutinize your rental agreement and ensure you clearly understand the costs involved.
While taxis are a convenient and quick way to get around Cancun, they can be more expensive than other modes of transport.
Short taxi rides within the downtown area can cost between MXN 50-70, with fares significantly increasing for longer distances.
To keep your budget in check, always negotiate and agree on a taxi fare before starting your journey.
If you need a transfer from the airport, consider booking a private service in advance to avoid hassle and inflated prices.
Food and Dining
Restaurants and Nightlife
Cancun is known for its food scene and exciting nightlife.
You can find the perfect meal for any taste, from traditional Mexican cuisine to international flavors.
For breakfast, enjoy local fares, like chilaquiles or fresh fruit.
And for lunch and dinner, you can't go wrong with local fish dishes, like ceviche or fish tacos.
Also, Cancun's nightlife draws in many visitors.
The city has no shortage of night establishments offering delicious food, unique cocktails, and lively entertainment.
Most restaurants also offer a full bar with a wide selection of alcohol, ranging from tequila and mezcal to your favorite international spirits.
Tips for Eating on a Budget
If you're looking to save some coins during your Cancun getaway, here are a few tips to keep your wallet full while still enjoying local culinary delights:
- Skip the hotel restaurant: Hotel restaurants often come with a heftier price tag, so venture out and explore the city to find more affordable options.
- Visit local markets: Stock up on fruits, veggies, and snacks by shopping at local markets, where you'll likely find lower prices and regional specialties.
- Opt for street food: Often, you can find the most delicious and authentic meals at street food stalls. Don't be afraid to try new things and ask the locals for recommendations.
- Share dishes: Restaurant portions can be pretty generous, so consider sharing a meal with your travel buddy to cut costs and sample a wider variety of flavors.
- Take advantage of happy hours: Watch out for happy hour promotions at bars and clubs to score discounted drinks and appetizers.
- Embrace the local tea culture: If you need an afternoon pick-me-up, opt for a cup of tea at a local café. It's typically more affordable than other beverage options and offers a taste of the regional tea culture.
One tip I've found personally helpful is to be open and friendly with restaurant staff and other diners.
It has led me to valuable recommendations and a more enjoyable dining experience during my stay in the city.
Weather and Best Time to Travel
Peak Season
Cancun's weather is synonymous with sun, warm temperatures, and beautiful beaches.
But, as you may know, the weather can differ depending on the time of year.
Visiting between December and April is generally considered the best time to enjoy Cancun's near-perfect weather.
This peak season means heavier crowds, but you'll find some great travel deals and minimal rainfall.
Plus, temperatures during this period are comfortable, averaging between 75 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Low Season
While peak season guarantees fantastic weather, you might want to consider traveling during the low season from May to June or September to November.
Hot temperatures and occasional rain showers may deter some travelers during these months.
But there's a silver lining.
You will find huge discounts on hotels, tours, and even cover charges.
Plus, most days are still sunny and beautiful.
Hurricane Season
But wait, let's not forget about hurricane season.
Usually, hurricane season in Cancun occurs from June to November.
Keep a close eye on the forecast and heed hurricane warnings if you plan a trip during this period.
Otherwise, you might have an experience like this one.
My sister and I visited Cancun once during the hurricane season.
We knew it was a risky time, but we also knew it was a great opportunity to score some fantastic deals.
Our trip started amazingly with bright and sunny weather, a literal calm before the storm.
Feeling cheerful that we had hit the jackpot, we decided to go shopping at the La Isla Shopping Village.
Guess what happened next?
Along the way, we got caught in a crazy downpour.
The funny thing is it stopped a few minutes later, the sun peeking out as if it had never rained at all.
We made it to the village, soaking wet under the bright sky.
Everyone was so nice, pretending not to notice our wet look as we shopped.
The legendary Dr. Stephen P. Leatherman, aka Dr. Beach, once said, "Timing is everything, especially when it comes to the weather."
So, to avoid potential inconveniences, it's crucial to consider the different weather patterns and plan accordingly.
Additional Expenses and Budgeting
Activities and Tours
Cancun offers a plethora of exciting activities and tours for you to experience.
Some popular options include snorkeling tours of the Underwater Museum, which cost around 965 MXN, and visiting the ancient Mayan ruins at Tulum.
Note that prices for other attractions and entertainment, such as water activities, can add up quickly.
However, you don't need to spend a fortune to have a great time.
When budgeting for your trip, factor in approximately M$2,469 ($140) per day for daily expenses, including dining and local transportation.
Here's a quick breakdown of standard costs on average:
- Meals: M$477 ($27) per day
- Local transportation: M$296 ($17) per day
- Hotel: M$3,261 ($185) per night for a couple,
Souvenirs and Shopping
Who doesn't love bringing home unique souvenirs from their travels?
Shopping in Cancun can range from affordable finds to more upscale offerings.
To stick to your budget, consider browsing local markets for artisanal crafts, such as ceramics, textiles, and handmade jewelry.
These items typically have a more authentic feel and can be more affordable than shopping at high-end stores or resorts.
It's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the current exchange rate of Mexican Peso.
This familiarity will help you understand pricing and budget accordingly during your stay.
It's best to carry some cash in the local currency when making purchases, as some smaller shops might not accept credit cards.
However, larger establishments likely will, so having a mix of payment options is advisable.
Saving Tips and Tricks
A fabulous Cancun vacation doesn't have to break the bank.
To get the most out of your trip while keeping costs down, here are some insider tips for you:
- Book early and be flexible with dates. The earlier you book, the better your chance of finding great deals. Also, try to avoid peak season and weekends when prices tend to be higher.
- Travel in groups. Many vacation packages or accommodation options offer discounts for larger groups.
- Keep an eye out for special promotions. Signing up for newsletters and following travel agencies on social media can alert you to limited-time offers.

With these insider-saving tips, your dream Cancun vacation is just a few clicks away.
Parting Words

While it varies yearly, the cheapest months to visit Cancun are typically September, October, and early November. It is due to the low season for tourism and the risk of hurricanes. As a result, you can take advantage of lower airfare and hotel prices during these months.
Do I Need A Passport For Cancun?
Yes, you need a valid passport when traveling to Cancun from countries like the United States, Canada, or Europe. Make sure that your passport is up to date and has at least six months of validity before your trip.
How Much Is A 3-Day Trip To Cancun?
A 3-day trip to Cancun could cost anywhere between $420 and $1,200, depending on your accommodations, transportation, and activities. This estimation includes average daily spending of $140, but your actual expenses would vary based on your preferences and choice of activities during your trip.

Ithaca Music Forum: Phil Ewell on "White Stories, Black Histories, and Desegregating the Music Curriculum"
The Ithaca Music Forum is pleased to host Philip Ewell, whose influence on music theory and pedagogy in the last two years is unrivaled.
At 6pm in Nabenhauer Recital Hall (Whalen 4308) on Ithaca College campus, Dr. Ewell will present "White Stories, Black Histories, & Desegregating the Music Curriculum." Join us for free. The public is invited.

"White Stories, Black Histories, and Desegregating the Music Curriculum"
In certain languages the words for "history" and "story" are the same, as in French (histoire) or Russian (история). There are of course differences. "History" usually implies an accurate account of past events, a summary of what happened over a period a time, while "story" usually refers to events that may or may not accurately reflect on the past, embellished as necessary by the "storyteller." But in this distinction race is rarely mentioned. Anyone, irrespective of race, can write histories or tell stories, yet with remarkable consistency in the academic study of music in the U.S., our histories have been written by white persons, usually men, passing from generation to generation with little divergence from the main narratives of "great works" of the "western canon." And when a nonwhite voice challenges the white narrative, efforts to stifle that voice are swift and sever, and all too often whiteness will accuse nonwhiteness of "storytelling," a common critique of Critical Race Theory these days. In short, white persons write histories, while nonwhite persons tell stories. In this talk I'll expand on music's histories and stories, and explain why, in fact, the common American music curriculum is still quite segregated along racial lines, like much of the country writ large, mostly because of the distinction between history and story. I'll then suggest that we don't need to "decolonize" the music curriculum—that's too vague—but, rather, that we need to desegregate it and foreground race in our discussions so that all racial musics, and musical races, have a seat at the table and a voice in the conversation.

Rumours of the death of fine dining are much exaggerated. In fact, I'd say that in dining rooms up and down the land fine dining is getting busy exploring new ways to stay relevant and special. I'm going to remember cooking my own steak at the Savoy Grill for a long time. And yesterday we were served a seven course tasting menu by chef Will Holland of La Becasse in the "No 1 Vaults Tasting Room".
When I say chef served us, I do actually mean that he brought every dish to the table, introduced it and then loitered for questions if we had any.
The Tasting Room is akin to the idea of a chef's table, but in this case it's a small private room with big windows into the kitchen and three tables. So it can cater to three parties at once, and apparently the presence of chef and the shared experience of the tasting menu tends to break down barriers and actually get people talking. Yes, talking!
However, this Wednesday lunchtime we were the only couple in the Tasting Room. On the one hand, service doesn't get any more personal than this and the opportunity for a long chat with chef was unique. On the other hand, I felt even more on show than the kitchen. That glass is two-way after all. It was mildly surreal and I keenly felt the need to be a witty and interactive diner.
Of course, this is the introvert in me talking. Other introverts reading this will squirm in sympathy. Proper dyed-in-the-blood extroverts would have been in hog heaven, bantering away with chef and his front of house team. In fact I have to applaud Will and the team for making us feel so welcome, I relaxed quickly and forgot our splendid isolation. Service was excellent (and of course personal) throughout.
The room itself is cool neutrals, warmed by beaten copper light fittings. It needs some art on the wall, but that's apparently on the way. Bowmore have obviously put some money into this, as I should more properly call it the "Bowmore No 1 Vaults Tasting Room" and
there are a few little touches to remind diners of the sponsorship. Nothing in-your-face, and Bowmore is after all a good whisky. Well, I'm partial.So, we enjoyed a seven course taste of delicious food. I've already reviewed the food at La Becasse, and it is still every bit as excellent as the day the idiot Michelin inspector visited (perhaps with orders from head office to knock one of 10-in-8's stars off?). My favourite dishes this time…
- From the canapes a beignet of bone marrow, in which Will had managed to neatly catch the fleeting carnivorous taste richly.
- Foie gras of a beautiful cafe creme colour, silken and perfect. It wasn't frozen, spiked or covered in acrid ginger powder. Only recently I was bitching about being bored with foie gras, having had altogether too much of it. Now I realise that I'd just been having very annoying foie gras.
- A piece of cod with a soft herb crust, so delicate it was like eating fishy clouds, which you'll just have to accept is a very good thing as I can't think of a way to describe it better.
- Finally I enjoyed my favourite souffle for long time. It was light and flavoured with nothing but caramel, served with burnt marshmallow and a dollop of clotted cream ice cream. So far as I can tell, this sublime dessert contained nothing but egg, sugar and cream. Sweet.
We arrived at 12 and said goodbye at nearly 5. So although the bill was £100 each including drinks, this was five hours of pleasure. The wines we enjoyed by the glass (from the list, not a special flight) were all superb selections, including the house white. I try not to use the word superb lightly, these really were. La Becasse is a good example of a restaurant looking for new ways to attract and retain an audience. It's daft to separate the food from the experience; a meal is much more than just the stuff that ends up in your belly. Though of course this particular experience wouldn't work at all if Will Holland wasn't a chef right at the top of his game.

Solution To Fix "SD Card Not Initialized" Error
Summary: A minuscule object packing a ton of power. Nothing explains an SD card better. It is one of the most commonly used storage devices around the world. Why? Because it is ridiculously compact yet extraordinarily powerful. SD cards can range in size from 2GB to 2TB (SDXC). SD cards find their use in smartphones, portable media players, digital cameras, voice recorders, etc. Just like any other storage media, like flash drives and hard disks, SD cards are reliable. However, just like the others, SD cards aren't foolproof. For getting familiar with the GUI of photo recovery software you can download the demo version of photo recovery software below. Download and install the software to evaluate the functionality of the software and preview your data from an undetected SD Card. |
"Card not initialized" is the most common error you'll face with an SD card. This error is trying to tell you that either your card needs to be formatted, or that it has been formatted.
"Undetected SD Card" error is another common issue that can arise if there's a problem with the card itself or the card slot. Both these errors can be nerve-wracking in terms of whether you'll recover your data or not.
Table of Content
But don't worry, we're here to show you how to Fix the SD Card Not Initialized Error.
What's the reason behind SD Card Not Initialized Error?
The card not initialized error can happen due to many reasons. And knowing the root cause will help you find a solution quickly. So here are some of the causes behind the SD Card not initialized error.
- Improper insert: Sometimes, you may not have inserted the card correctly into the slot. This should be the first thing you check if your SD card isn't read.
- Dirty Pins: Digital camera or smartphone read the SD card with the help of the SD card's pins (which you can typically notice as thin copper stripes). However, if dirt has accumulated on these pins, then it may make it difficult for your device to load the memory card. And it would throw a card not initialized error.
- Data Corruption: Your SD card files can be corrupted or damaged because of both physical and logical errors. The latter includes malware attacks, unintentional formatting, operating system corruption, etc.
- Incompatible Hardware: If the mobile phone or digital camera doesn't support the memory card that you are using, you may receive an "SD Card not initialized Error" etc.

Solutions to Fix "SD Card Not Initialized" Error
If your SD card has become "unreadable", there is no need to panic, data recovery from your SD card is possible in most cases. That said, before taking any drastic measures or jumping to conclusions, you can try the following essential solutions first:
- Switch off the device, remove the SD card, and reinsert. Turn on the device and see if it worked. If it didn't, then proceed to the next step.
- Get soft and clean cotton to clean the memory card pins (i.e. the electrical contacts). Once done, repeat the step above. Be cautious the remove all the fibers from the slot.
If your card not initialized error doesn't get fixed with either of these solutions, don't lose hope yet. There are a couple of more DIY methods you can try at home before you need to pull out the big guns.
Fix 1: SD Card Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting will help you diagnose the issue and rectify it. Here's how to troubleshoot your SD Card.
1. Open "Control Panel" and then open "Troubleshooting".
2. Here, select the "Hardware and Sound" option then navigate to "Hardware and Devices".
3. This will open a wizard. Follow the steps instructed by the wizard. Wait until the troubleshooter diagnoses the issue.
Once you get your diagnosis, you will be able to find a faster solution to fix the SD card not initialized error.
Fix 2: Update SD Card drivers
An SD card driver is what reads your card on your PC. An issue with this driver could also cause a card not initialized error. If this happens, you need to update your SD card driver. Here's how.
1. Open the "Control Panel" and navigate to "Device Manager".
2. Right-click on the SD card and click "Properties". In this window, open the "Driver" tab. Here, click "Update Driver".
3. You will see an option called "Search automatically for updated driver software". Select this. The driver will get updated. This should fix the card not initialized error if the problem is with the driver.
If the problem doesn't get rectified, move on to the next solution.
In most cases, the methods shared above should be able to get your SD card up and running again and fix the SD Card not initialized Error once and for all.
However, if the problem persists, then you have two options:
- Software solution
- Service Solution
Both options are equally competent and capable of achieving 100% data recovery. The only difference is in their working. At first, you can recover the data on your own with the help of the data recovery software. However, in the second option, you should hand over your SD card to a data recovery service expert who can do the task for you. The latter is more suitable for when there's physical damage to your SD card.

Service Solution
A professional data recovery company such as Stellar has a state-of-the-art data recovery lab and skilled recovery engineers that use advanced practices and specialized software for successful data recovery from SD Card.
In a service solution, the Data recovery experts take your SD card to assess the damage in detail. They check if any damage to the circuitry or if there is some logical error. If it's the former, they identify the repairable sectors/regions and then provide a list of recoverable files to you for approval. If the problem is the latter, then it's usually possible to recover 100% of the data, and they shall perform the standard SD card data recovery procedure.
The "SD Card not initialized" is a reasonably standard error, and in most cases, you can recover the data rather quickly. However, if you don't want to take any chances, and if the data is particularly important to you, then it's best to use specialized software such as the one discussed above or a comprehensive and professional data recovery service.
The solutions mentioned above are viable to fix the "SD card not initialized" error.
1. What does it mean to initialize an SD card?
This is basically another way of saying "formatting an SD card". When you initialize the card, it will permanently erase all the data contained within the card. This is why you will need to revert to data recovery techniques.
2. How can I fix my SD card without formatting?
You can try inserting your SD card into another device, reassign the drive letter, or update the SD card driver to fix your SD card error. You can also try the CHKDSK command to repair a software issue with the SD card. None of these methods would permanently delete the data from your SD card.
3. Can I recover a corrupted SD card?
Yes, you can recover a corrupted SD card. The best way to recover a corrupted SD card is by using data recovery software. This can help you recover all of your data.
4. How to prevent card not initialized errors?
You prevent a card not initialized error, you need to ensure the health of your SD card. You can run diagnoses periodically to keep up with the card status. You should always use a high-quality card reader and always eject the card safely from your computer. If you don't follow these practices, you will need to know how to Fix the SD Card Not Initialized Error.
5. Which is the most reliable SD card to use?
All SD card brands are safe and reliable. There is usually only a problem with older SD cards. But Transcend and SanDisk is two of the most reliable SD card brands that will last for many years.

Summer is upon us, and parents, children and teachers are winding down from what has been an exhausting and fully operational school year—the first since the devastating pandemic. The long-lasting impact of COVID-19 has affected our students' and families' well-being and ignited the politics surrounding public schools. All signs point to the coming school year unfolding with the same sound and fury, and if extremist culture warriors have their way, being even more divisive and stressful.
In AFT President Randi Weingarten's latest New York Times column, she describes what it is exactly that unions do. Though unions are the most popular they have been in decades, anti-union sentiment still thrives in red states and across the nation. "Several years ago, The Atlantic ran a story whose headline made even me, a labor leader, scratch my head: 'Union Membership: Very Sexy,'" Weingarten writes in the column. "The gist was that higher wages, health benefits and job security—all associated with union membership—boost one's chances of getting married. Belonging to a union doesn't actually guarantee happily ever after, but it does help working people have a better life in the here and now." Click through to read the full column.
Attacks on public education in America by extremists and culture-war peddling politicians have reached new heights ("lows" may be more apt), but they are not new. The difference today is that the attacks are intended not just to undermine public education but to destroy it.
The U.S. Supreme Court issued a 5-4 decision in Janus v. AFSCME on June 26, 2018, saying it is unconstitutional to collect fees from public employees who choose not to be a member of the union that negotiates the contract that provides their wages, benefits and other working conditions.
This decision, which was split along political lines within the Court, is one that harms working people and their families, turning its back on the long and important history of the labor movement. The Court's opinion was expected following recent cases pressed in Wisconsin and elsewhere by those who want to
Many of the news reports about the Janus v. AFSCME case tout the loss of Union Dues as the demise of organized labor specifically in the public sector. When Union Members act collectively in solidarity they represent a powerful group that significantly impacts the negotiation of fair sal aries, working conditions, health care and pensions. Recently, the public-school teachers in West Virginia joined in an action protesting how higher health care costs and the lack of raises for the past few years had eroded their ability to be engaged in the American Dream.

How Do Men Test for Ureaplasma Urealyticum Infection?
Ureaplasma urealyticum is a kind of microorganism between bacteria and viruses, and it can cause non-gonococcal urethritis, prostatitis, etc. And it can be transmitted through sex or indirectly. So how do men know that if they have Ureaplasma urealyticum? What tests should they do?
(1) Collection of specimens
The swab should be deep into the urethra for 2 to 4 cm when male patients take samples, and the swab should be rotated forcefully to obtain cells. Avoid contact with antibiotics, analgesics, or lubricants when collecting specimens.
(2) Common methods of mycoplasma detection
1. PCR: It has considerable diagnostic value, but it is difficult to obtain quantitative results, and can not evaluate the sensitivity of antibiotics and other biological characteristics.
2. Serological test for Mycoplasma antibody: It lacks sensitivity and specificity.
3. Indirect immunofluorescence test: It has the advantages of rapidity, reproducibility, sensitivity, and specificity to detect genital mycoplasma antibodies.
4. Blood routine: Peripheral white blood cell count is normal, eosinophil increases.
5. Serological examination: Mycoplasma was inoculated into agar dishes, and serum-soaked filter paper was placed on the agar surface to see, which could control the growth of Mycoplasma and diagnose which type the Mycoplasma serotype infection is.
6. Pathogenic detection: Pathogenic tests are usually required to detect male Ureaplasma urealyticum. There are two main types of specimens obtained. One is the secretion of the male urethral orifice. If there is no secretion, we can test it through urine, as well as prostatic fluid and semen.
7. Pathogen culture: There are two commonly used detection methods; one is the cultivation of pathogens. The main advantage of this culture is that it can detect which drugs can respond to the pathogen and obtain the results of the drug sensitivity of the pathogen.
8. Nucleic acid detection: In addition, there is a more new way to detect nucleic acids. The advantage of nucleic acid detection is that it is not limited to secretion culture. In urine or other samples, only the nucleic acid of the pathogen can be detected, and the detection rate will be higher. But its disadvantage is that it can not obtain the drug sensitivity results of pathogens.
The standard for the cure of Ureaplasma urealyticum:
If men get Mycoplasma infection, the highest detection rate of infection of sexual partners can reach 36.8%, so it is necessary for them to check and treat at the same time in order to avoid re-infection.
Sensitive antibiotics are needed for treatment; azithromycin and doxycycline are commonly used antibiotics for Ureaplasma urealyticum infection. However, due to the increasing drug resistance of Ureaplasma urealyticum in recent years, if the above two drugs can not be completely cured, herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can be selected for regular treatment.
It has the characteristics of spectrum antimicrobial. Moreover, it can clear away heat and detoxify, activate blood circulation, and remove blood stasis, effectively kill pathogens and pathogens causing diseases, turn the Mycoplasma negative, and prevent a recurrence. Besides, it will not cause any side effects on the human body. After the treatment, it is necessary to review whether the urinary and cervical secretions are negative periodically.
Criteria for cure are:
1. The clinical symptoms have disappeared for more than a week, and the white blood cells in the urethral secretions or secretions were less than 4/100 times under the microscope.
2. Urine clarification and sediment tests were negative.
3. Mycoplasma examination of urethral or cervical specimens was negative.
Notices for Ureaplasma urealyticum Examination:
1. Mycoplasma carriers should use condoms while having sex, and mycoplasma infections patients should avoid sex before they are cured.
2. If patients' sexual partners also have some symptoms of urethritis, and they should be examined and treated in hospitals, too.
3. Do a good job of sexual hygiene and health care, and say no to unclean sexual behavior.
4. Prohibit alcohol, avoid spicy food, and drink more water.
5. Do the necessary isolation in the family, use the bath towel, washbasin, bathtub, toilet separately, or disinfect after use.

9-point Spring Lawn Care Checklist
It might seem like an odd time for me to be thinking about a spring lawn care checklist. As I write this, I'm on the third floor of a hotel in Appleton, Wisconsin. I'm looking out the window at a bright sunlit morning. It's 2 degrees with a wind chill of 7 below. Driving to the seminar yesterday, we hit a whiteout, and it was snowing heavily and blowing straight at us. My point is it's not very spring-like right now. However, it's mid-February, and spring is only six weeks away. It's time to start thinking about your spring land care plan.
Spring Lawn Care Checklist
1. Clean it up
The first step in this spring lawn care checklist is to clean up your lawn and beds. Pick up twigs, branches, leaves, and leavings. I usually walk the yard with a trash bag, pick up debris, and then rake the yard. My backyard sits at the bottom of a wooded hill, so I have plenty of leaves that I rake to a pile in the woods and use as compost.
"Leaves also make great composting ingredients, especially when mixed with green trimmings and grass clippings. Again, the smaller the pieces, the faster they'll break down, so shred or chop dry leaves before adding them to the compost pile." — Purdue University — Much ado about leaves.
2. Aerate Your Lawn
If you're unfamiliar with aeration, it's simple. A machine extracts small plugs from your lawn. This allows moisture, nutrients, and oxygen to feed the roots of your grass. Here are a few of the benefits of aerating your lawn from North Dakota State University Ag
"Aeration will:
- Invigorate roots and stimulate new growth.
- Reduce soil compaction.
- Reduce thatch accumulation.
- Enhance the movement of water and nutrients into the soil.
- Smooth out bumpy lawns."
3. It's Time to Fertilize
The best time to fertilize your lawn in the spring is after aeration. Temperate zones and types of grass require different fertilizers, be sure to use what's best for your yard. So, when should you fertilize your lawn?
"Apply early spring lawn fertilizer once between February and April, when your grass is starting to green up and begin to actively grow (around the time your lawn first needs to be mowed)." — Scotts — When to Fertilize for a Greener Lawn.
And don't forget to fertilize flower beds, your vegetable garden, and roses.
4. Edge the Beds
This might sound a little nitpicky, but at least in my yard, my flower beds lose their edge. I have more than 40 beds, most along my privacy fence in the backyard. Every winter, the snow and ice move some of the edging, weeds spread and die across the borders, and overall, they don't look very good. Regardless of how green my grass becomes, a sloppy edge makes it look unkempt.
5. Refresh Your Mulch
Here's the thing. Many garden experts suggest removing and replacing your mulch. I don't do that. I rake last year's mulch, remove discolored, molded, and damaged bits, and then add new mulch on top, raking it in. It might be that I'm lazy, but it works for me and looks as good as new.
6. Tune it up
It's time to clean up and tune up your tools and equipment. Mowers, edgers, and blowers should all be inspected and tested. Hand tools should be counted, cleaned, and replaced as needed. And don't forget to stock up on gardening apparel, including gloves and hats. Also, you might want to check your supply of sunscreen. Here's more on maintaining your mower, How to Maintain Your Residential Lawn Mower.
7. Prune Trees and Shrubs
The best time to prune most trees and shrubs is before spring growth. It can help them grow, and it's much easier to identify dead and damaged areas before new growth hides the injury.
"In temperate regions, most plants go dormant during the winter. This is the time of year when they've halted active growth and have hunkered down for the cold weather. Because of this dormancy, late winter and early spring are typically the best times to make any adjustments to the shapes of many trees and shrubs." — Almanac.com — Tips for Pruning in Winter and Early Spring.
8. Turn on Your Spigot and Hook up the Hose
I store my garden hoses in the shed during the winter, and of course, the spigots are off. Don't wait until it's time to water your lawn to learn the spigot doesn't work or your hose has a four-inch tear.
9. Clean and Operate Water Features
I have two fountains, one large vase and another smaller, plus a small waterfall in one of my flower beds. Every spring, I change out the water, clean up the water features, and add nontoxic, organic mosquito repellent to the water. After refilling the basins with water, I give them a test run.
It might be a sub-zero wind chill where I am, but it doesn't matter. It's only six weeks until the spring equinox. So, I'm using the 9-point lawn care checklist to make my plan. I think I'll start with…

Welcome to
San Benedetto
Our story began in 1826…
At that time, the Giannelli family ran a small farm with vineyards, olive groves and livestock in San Benedetto. The name of this farm was "podere Casaccia", and it was managed under the old sharecropping system until the 1960s, when brothers Dario and Giuseppe and their sons decided to buy the first piece of land. It was on this very piece of land that the first part of the winery was built in 1975 under the name Azienda Agricola Giannelli; the years went by and the estate gradually expanded, with new vineyards, a bigger cellar and modern equipment. The company changed its name to Azienda Agricola San Benedetto in 1998: Giovanni, Andrea and Marco work with the same passion as ever to produce high-quality wines.
Every day, for as long as we can remember, we have been committed to respecting the bond we have with the land, cherishing and caring for it, in the knowledge that the future depends on what we do today and what we have learned from the past.

I quite enjoyed posting the second paragraph of the third chapter (C3p2 for short) of each book I read in March as a one-month project, but I don't think I will continue the practice. I am tardy enough at writing up books and audios in timely fashion as I get through them (it's now 12 April, I've finished 9 books so far this month, and haven't posted about any of them yet), and adding an extra step in the process doesn't seem all that wise.
However, it was interesting to see that, in the majority of cases, the C3p2 was a really good taster for what the rest of the book would be like. My favourite was probably Animal Farm, but there were lots of other good examples too. It comes out as a fair point of comparison, or a possibly useful yardstick while browsing and thinking if you want to get stuck in.
The exceptions, oddly enough, were the Doctor Who books. Hardly any of them had a good C3p2, or one which really gave a flavour of the rest of the book. (The game books did have C3p2's which gave an indicative flavour, but they were all pretty bad books.) Perhaps the traditional pacing of Who books is such that Chapter 3 doesn't always signpost the rest of the story terribly well.
Anyway, it was interesting to try this. Thanks,

Dear ND-BG Community,
First allow me to extend a heartfelt "thank you" to those who were with us last year when we were forced to make a rapid transition to online learning. We learned much from this experience, what worked well, and more importantly, what did not work at all.
Our current plan is to reopen for in person instruction in September 2020. However, we do understand that there may be members of our community who due to medical considerations do not feel currently comfortable with in-person instruction. This year our faculty and staff will be using Microsoft Teams, with which we can now offer live, real-time video instruction of our classes, if necessary, for these individuals.
Microsoft Teams combines all the methods of communication utilized by our staff last year in one location: secure video conferencing, chat, messaging, and a class notebook to receive, complete, and send work directly to the teacher for assessment. Students can log into Teams using their ND-BG e-mail accounts (which have been created for new students & updated for those returning) through an internet browser on a PC or the free app for cell phones or tablets. using their ND-BG e-mail accounts. Much of our first few days back will be used as an orientation to help our students feel comfortable with this system. Should the pandemic force the school back into online learning, Teams will be employed to offer a virtual schedule that the student body will be required to follow.
While we were quarantined, the ND-BG administrative team began planning for all possible learning scenarios in the Fall of 2020. All agreed that Remind, while useful for communication, did not meet our needs for sending and receiving work. After much deliberation, we have decided that our teachers and students will use Microsoft Teams as a tool to communicate and receive/send work for the 2020-21 School Year and to reiterate, also for in-person virtual instruction if necessary.
There will be further communication as we move towards September and information for students on how to log-in for the first time and how to reset their passwords if necessary. The form for this is located below:
In the meantime, please view the attached PDF to get a sense of how Teams will look and work for our student body. A video overview can be found here on YouTube: https://youtu.be/i0TlQXmFGdQ
We again thank each of you for your support and continue to pray for the health of you and your loved ones.
The ND-BG Administrative Team
Mr. Patrick Moran, Principal
Mr. Sam South, School Counselor

Top 10 Media Preservation Related Standards Established In The Aughts
December 16, 2009
Archivists have to know a lot. Probably a lot more small details than any one person can keep in mind. (Do you have all of the Kodak edge codes memorized?) Standards, guidelines, and best practices provide necessary reference and give a structure to our work that we need. Staying updated on new or changing standards is a requirement of performing our work to the best quality possible — and one needs something to do while waiting for the next season of Mad Men to come out on DVD.
Life would be a lot easier if this standard had been around since the beginning of the production of magnetic materials.
9. ISO 15707, Information and documentation – International Standard Musical Work Code (ISWC)
The ease of tracking works, rights, and licensing as well as improving wider access is dependent on consistent metadata applied by or available to all stakeholders. Perhaps this (and prior, pre-computing efforts) is why music has always seemed easier to find and license than moving images.
8. ISO 12234-2:2007, Electronic still-picture imaging — Removable memory — Part 1
Where would our culture be without the easy dissemination of embarrassing photos on Facebook?
Few people seem to have that visceral love for magnetic tape the way they do for film, but the advances in preservation standards for tape have been equally impressive if not equally trumpeted as for film.
6. ISO 18934:2006, Imaging Materials – Multiple media Archives – Storage Environment
Though there have been many advancements in identifying the correct storage environments for all types of materials, no archival collection is a format island. The reality of the mixed-format collection where there are conflicting standards for ideal storage environments needs a sensible, viable solution for an overall standard that applies to all but the outliers.
5. NISO: A Framework of Guidance for Building Good Digital Collections
Often times standards or best practices are playing catch up to establish solutions to long standing problems. The rate of fluctuation around issues regarding digital assets doesn't allow a wait and see attitude. Preserving digital materials requires proactive efforts to ensure their persistence beyond the immediate future.
4. Sound Directions: Best Practices for Audio Preservation, Mike Casey & Bruce Gordon
Just one of the many great resources to come out of the Sound Directions project. They should probably write a best practices document for how to develop and run funded research projects that is based on their experiences.
3. IASA-TC 03, The Safeguarding of the Audio Heritage: Ethics, Principles and Preservation Strategy & IASA-TC 04, Guidelines on the Production and Preservation of Digital Objects
See description for #1.
2. ANSI/NISO Z39.87 – Data Dictionary – Technical Metadata for Digital Still Images
The basis of the Metadata for Images in XML (MIX) Schema which is a model for good digital collection management. Storage, migration, and access of materials rely in part on standardized, interchangeable metadata.
1. Audiovisual Archiving: Philosophy and Principles, Ray Edmondson & Reference Model for an Open Archival Information System (OAIS), Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems
Archiving and preservation dictate technical standards and ethical standards. We cannot provide one without taking factors of the other into consideration. Like a 70s supergroup, these documents combine both as individuals and compliment each other as a duo.

Supposedly Epstein hanged himself, in a locked down prison where they take your shoelaces and no bed sheets!
The autopsy is not ready for release. In the meantime—in a day or so when cries for release of the autopsy are increasing, there will be another eeeugggge crisis swamping all news coverage. Like the Mueller report, the Epstein autopsy will be forgotten. Blamed on the jail flunkies. Justice!

I am writing in support of the Endangered Species Act, and in opposition to efforts by Congress to undermine this landmark wildlife conservation law.
The Endangered Species Act is a safety net for fish, plants and wildlife on the brink of extinction. Since President Nixon signed the law in 1973, hundreds of species have been saved from disappearing forever, including the American bald eagle, the peregrine falcon and the American alligator, and many more are on their way to recovery.
But now, some members of Congress are trying to weaken the Endangered Species Act to benefit developers and the oil and gas industry.
Protecting endangered species is important to me.
We have a responsibility to future generations to be good stewards and protect imperiled wildlife and the special places they call home. Our senators must oppose efforts to weaken the Endangered Species Act.

Putin switches sides?
As the Russian interference saga continues ("They're at it as we speak"—Robert Mueller) it's worth taking the time to analyze our opponent's possible responses to our defensive strategies. Media and the population at large seem to have collectively decided that foreign interference will again benefit the current officeholder. There could be an alternate scenario at play. What if Putin grows weary of his lap dog on Pennsylvania Avenue and devises a new method to undercut our democracy? One that echoes previous interference but does not lead to the same result?
Picture severe voting disruption, miscounts and other underhandedness that makes Florida 2000 look like a Rotary Club showing of hands. This time, however, Putin puts the Democrats over the top, purposely leaving an easy-to-follow trail of bread crumbs for all to see. Now imagine a right wing justifiably up in arms. Do you think Republicans, who exist in permanent attack mode as it is, would take a measured approach to uncover Russian sabotage? Or delay collusion and impeachment hearings "until all the facts are in"?
Don't make the mistake of believing the next attack on our democracy comes waltzing down the same path humming the same tune as the last one. This is not your father's election meddling. The game is called "Seeds of Disruption," and harvest season arrives in November 2020.

What guy?
Corporate media has to love this guy. No need to pay reporters to cover bombing of civilians in Yemen, Afghanistan, Syria etc. Nor report on fires in the Arctic or global warming, or children sexually abused in our concentration camps at $750 per kid per day.
All they gotta do is analyse a few frequent foggy tweets, show old stock footage of poo poo head and Moscow Mitch, alarm us enough to get more advertisers and then enjoy a nice bonus and a stogie. Sweet.
Now if they only gave us bread with that circus.

A dad who has been called a 'demon' by his neighbours because he has a split tongue, tattooed eyeballs, and devil horns has revealed what he used to look like and said that he won't change his style or stop modifying himself.
To be fair, when it comes to changing his style, that ship has well and truly sailed, but 28-year-old Pedro Kenso has no interest in that anyway.
The Brazilian man has spent loads of cash on his body modifications, which started in 2017 when he had one of his nipples removed.
Now, he's had a load of silicone implanted into his head and can screw horns into his skull to make him look like a devil.
It's a look, and he's committed to it.
On top of that, he had his eyeballs tattooed and even sliced the top of his ears off.
He said: "When I go outside people do judge and criticise me. Some call me a demon and others get scared.
"But I'm a very calm person. I have faith in God.
"When I go to the supermarket people are super amazed and polite."
It all started off small, Pedro's first tattoo was his mother's name on his arm.
Since then, he's had more than 70 percent of his body tattooed.
If you want to check out more, you can see it on his Instagram account @mansaotattoo.
He continued: "When I did the tongue fork. I didn't feel pain or anything.
"I used to have pointy elf ears but I didn't like it.
"I wanted something more aggressive so I cut them off.
He isn't finished here though, and in the future he wants to make sure that the percentage of his body that is covered in tatts is significantly higher than it is now.
Pedro added: "The plan for my future is to tattoo myself 100%."
He shares short videos with his 272,000 followers on TikTok, but not everyone is so positive about his body choices.
One wrote: "What makes a person do that to the body."
Another said: "Bro, does he think he's handsome? [sic]"
However, others think that it's totally up to him and even reckon his art is cool.
One said: "People stop judging him he wants to be like this problems it's better for him to stay silent than talk because tomorrow we can wake up dead.."
A fellow supporter commented: "Jesus loves you anyway, he doesn't care about childish comments, everything has its time."
A third wrote: "Am I the only one who thinks this is cool?"
As long as he's happy, it's his body to do whatever he wants with.

Realtors, have you ever heard of a real estate matchmaker program? In many markets, there is a shortage of quality inventory, so agents are always looking for ways to get new listings or find the perfect off market property for their buyers. A matchmaker program is a great way to do that.
The idea of a matchmaker program is to help buyers who are struggling to find homes. With this, you would create a part of your website that would be dedicated to matchmaker posts, then create nice images to display what your buyer is looking for.
On each post, you would list what the buyer needs, what amenities they want, what area they are looking in, what their price point is, etc. Then you can ask sellers or their agents to reach out if they have a home that fits that description. With this program, people have the opportunity to look at your matchmaker section if they're going to sell, and they can possibly find the perfect buyer for their property before it even hits the market to avoid all of that hassle.
If you have any questions about this program or how to implement it on your website, don't hesitate to reach out! Call or email me anytime, and I would be happy to hear from you.
