did you ever wonder how the non-rigid dirigible came to be called the "blimp?"
well, according to "dictionary of word origins," it so happened that "when england began experimenting with this type of airship in 1914, two designs were tested- the "a-limp" and the "b-limp." the a-limp was unsuccessful." (good thing.) "the b-limp was used and gave its name to all airships of this type."

My next phone is great. It's just what I've been waiting for.
It runs all kinds of different bike apps so I can take my pick. The GPS is really good too, they've worked on that. It's ANT+ and Bluetooth compatible too, so I can use any heart rate strap or sensor or power meter I want.
What's more, it's properly waterproof, so I don't have to worry about putting it in a plastic bag every ride. It's rubberised too, nice and tough like. To be honest I'm a bit fed up of shiny phones. I just scratch them up. And it's got some decent-sized hardware buttons on it that I can use to do basic stuff, even when I'm wearing gloves.
Also, it's modular. It comes with a slimline battery like a normal phone, but you can whip that off, and replace it with a high capacity battery so it'll last for an all-day ride, even with the screen on. To be honest, I'll probably leave it like that most of the time. I don't mind that it's a bit bulkier.
Not only that, but the back is hot-swappable - there's a tiny battery in the main phone that keeps it going for a few minutes while you're fiddling around in the drawer for the other back. Both bits of the phone are sealed units so you can even do it in the rain; If you're really going out into the wilds, you can carry a spare battery and swap it in the field.
And best of all: the high-capacity back has a real mounting point. A proper, Garminy, Brytony, twisty mounting point so you can slap it on your stem like a bike computer, instead of putting it in a rubbish waterproof case and trying to fix the whole kaboodle to your bars.
So. That's my next phone. Who's going to make my next phone for me?
Dave is a founding father of road.cc and responsible for kicking the server when it breaks. In a previous life he was a graphic designer but he's also a three-time Mountain Bike Bog Snorkelling world champion, and remains unbeaten through the bog. Dave rides all sorts of bikes but tends to prefer metal ones. He's getting old is why.

You bugger, you had me thinking....OH I need this as I don't have a mobile phone at all....then I read its your mind doing overtime.
To get a phone like that, you'd be talking big bucks.

Not everyone is lucky to be happily in love. Not everyone is fortunate in their first relationship. Some just sucks in the world of love; pain over pain, heartbreak over heartbreak. However, everyone has a chance to start all over again after every painful experience, because everything has a reason. Let us not lose our hope in love.
FOOLED. It is heartbreaking when you thought people truly love you yet it is the other way around. They may show how they care for you and make you feel important, but it does not mean that they love you. Some people are naturally sweet or worse they may have hidden motives why they act that way. It is better to make sure first how genuine their love is before falling deeply in love with that person.
NOT YOUR TOY. One of the most unfortunate experiences we could have in love is being played by our partner. The time when you thought that both of you are happily in love with each other, until you discovered that all along everything is just a game for him/her; playing with you and your feelings as if you are some piece of a toy. Whatever reason he/she may have for playing with you, people don't have any right to fool and deceive others.
ONE DAY. One day, I will forget you. All the love I have for you, all the pain you caused me - all the good and bad memories, all of these will be just another mere memory. And that when time comes that fate will let us meet again, I can look straight into your eyes and smile like I am some brand new person without any trace of a past with you. One day, you will just be someone that I used to know.

Home > Services > Hip > Hip Labral Tear
The labrum is a type of cartilage that surrounds the socket of ball-and-socket joints, such as the hip. It is designed to stabilize the joint and also allow for flexibility and motion.
A tear in this ring of cartilage is a hip labral tear and can be caused in one of two ways:
A hip labral tear can be difficult to diagnose because symptoms are the same as other common hip conditions such as a groin strain, snapping hip syndrome, sports hernia or other sports injuries of the hip. Midwest Orthopedic Specialty Hospital experts will work closely with you to correctly diagnose this condition.
Symptoms can include:
Your doctor will most likely need an MRI to confirm the diagnosis.
Hip labral tear treatment is evolving quickly. Early hip labral tear treatment begins conservatively and can include:
If conservative treatments fail to take care of the pain, your Midwest Orthopedic Specialty Hospital doctor may decide to perform hip labral tear surgery as a hip arthroscopy. Your surgeon will use an instrument with a small camera on the end of it to get a close up view of your tear.
Treatment usually consists of shaving out the torn portion of the labrum. In some larger hip labral tears, your doctor may attempt a repair. Recovery from hip labral tear arthroscopy can take up to 12-16 weeks, depending on the extent of the repair. Physical therapy will help rebuild strength and flexibility in your hip joint

Shelvey looking to push on
A productive loan spell at Blackpool has seen Jonjo Shelvey drafted back into Liverpool's first-team plans this season, after Lucas Leiva was ruled out for the remainder of the campaign with a cruciate ligament injury.
After making his first Barclays Premier League start of 2011-12 in the 2-0 win over Aston Villa on Sunday, the 19-year-old midfielder is hoping to become a regular feature in Kenny Dalglish's side.
Shelvey turned in an eye-catching performance at Villa Park, repaying the faith shown in him by his manager, and now the Reds youngster is determined to build on that impressive display and become more than just a promising squad player.
"It was good to get the shout to play and hopefully I repaid the gaffer with the performance and I hope I'm worthy of starting the next game and hopefully kick on from here," he said.
"He has put a lot of trust in me, and I thank him for that, but I feel I've deserved the chance to start a Premier League game. I have done now and feel I took the chance. Kenny said I did well so hopefully I can start on Wednesday [against Wigan].
"Obviously it is a tough job with the amount of internationals that are there. I've just got to take it day by day and train at my best and hopefully that will be good enough."
Reflecting on his loan spell at Bloomfield Road, Shelvey revealed he was grateful for the opportunity to get some regular football under his belt, and now hopes to use the experience as a springboard for success with Liverpool.
"I think I've got a lot more confidence in myself with the way I've played, but I owe a lot to Blackpool in that sense," he continued. "I asked Kenny if I could go away and get a few games and match fitness.
"He came up and watched a few games at Blackpool and I think in the ones he watched I didn't perform very well! That's the way it goes, but I did enjoy my time there and it's given me the confidence to come back to Liverpool and fight back for a place.
"There is nothing worse than training all week and not playing on a Saturday or a Sunday. I didn't want to come back and just play reserve football.
"I'm nearly 20, I want to play football and there's nothing better than to do it for Liverpool."News Now - Sport News

Gatwick bosses will make last-ditch plea to Theresa May warning of 'risks' of expanding Heathrow with third runway
They will send a letter to the PM-chaired cabinet committee on airport expansion before it makes a final decision this week
BOSSES at Gatwick are set to fire a last-ditch warning to Theresa May warning her over the "risks" of approving a third runway at Heathrow.
They will reportedly send a letter to the cabinet committee on airport expansion, chaired by the Prime Minister, before it makes a final decision this week.
A report on Sky News say executives at the airport south of London will tell ministers on Monday that they should choosing to expand capacity there instead of at its rival.
It comes after the Government dropped the strongest hint yet that it will choose to build a new runway at Heathrow last week.
Mrs May revealed she will suspend collective Cabinet responsibility and allow her own ministers to publicly oppose the verdict.
Given that several in the Cabinet are against Heathrow, such as Boris Johnson and Justine Greening, and none have openly criticised expanding Gatwick, the west London site seems likely to be approved.
An insider told Sky that Gatwick has not given up hope of influencing the Cabinet sub-committee, which is due to make a decision on Tuesday morning.
RUNWAY DRAMAManchester Airport runway closed as BA flight from Heathrow 'breaks its nose wheel on landing'
NOT CLEAR FOR TAKE OFFNew Heathrow runway grounded for 18 months despite PM saying decision would be made next week
'A POLITICAL MILLSTONE'Tory MP Zac Goldsmith vows to resign if Theresa May gives green light to a third runway at Heathrow
They said: "We will focus on the benefits of competition, the relative cost of the two airports' plans, and the straightforward and clear path to delivery."
"Heathrow's project carries considerable planning, financing and construction risks against Gatwick's very modest profile in respect of these risks," they added.
The decision will be followed by a year-long public consultation and then a final vote in the House of Commons.
Gatwick chief executive Stewart Wingate has argued his airport represents the best option, saying: "Airport expansion has been in a holding pattern for decades.
"We are finally getting to the point of decision again. The choice is crystal clear - growth at Gatwick or Groundhog Day at Heathrow."
The Transport Secretary Chris Grayling has acknowledged whatever the decision it will result in "challenge and opposition".
But he said they would "open up new opportunities for Britain" as it adjusts to Brexit.
Mr Grayling said all three options for expansion were still in play: "Genuinely it's going to be a decision on Tuesday and it's a difficult one, because all three of these are well-crafted proposals and any one of them could bring benefits to the UK."
Speaking to BBC One's Andrew Marr Show he added: "The question here is that we have to, in my view, take a decision that is in the interest of our nation.
"What delivers us the best connectivity, the right approach for the future at a time when we want to grow international trade links, open up new opportunities for Britain.
"Of course there will be opposition, of course there will be challenge whatever we do."
A spokesman for Heathrow said: "Heathrow received a unanimous and unambiguous recommendation for expansion from the independent Airports Commission following a two-and-a-half year, 20m study.
"It confirmed that the benefits are significantly greater, for business passengers, freight operators and the broader economy than any other option and that all passengers will benefit from enhanced competition.
"The Commission also set out conditions to expansion including restrictions on night flights, controls on air pollution and noise, which Heathrow has accepted and, in most cases, exceeded.
"As we approach Brexit, only Heathrow expansion will connect all parts of the UK to the new trading routes beyond Europe.
"We stand ready to deliver soon as we get the green light from Government."

A lot of people who accuse MLB commissioner Bud Selig of being out of touch just want to complain. But Selig gave them some real ammunition Thursday night.
Selig presided over the latest rendition of the MLB draft Thursday with all the aplomb and accuracy of a commissioner who may be unaware how the years are passing him by. As Selig read the draftees' names, he kept making one tiny mistake.
"With the first selection of the 2000 first-player draft, the Houston Astros select Mark Appel," he intoned when announcing the No. 1 pick.
It didn't stop there — Selig called the event the "2000" draft several more times, Larry Brown Sports reports.
Now, baseball is famous for being stuck in its ways, but this is something else.
Check out a video of one of Selig's slipups below.

President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda
KAMPALA, Uganda - Uganda&39;s Yoweri Museveni has signed into law a bill removing presidential age limits, a spokesman said Tuesday, clearing the way for the 73-year-old&39;s expected sixth run at the presidency in 2021.
The controversial constitutional amendment removes the age limit of 75 years imposed on presidential candidates and was pushed through by ruling party MPs in December. It was signed by Museveni on December 27 but not publicly acknowledged until now.
READ: Uganda bans protests amid bid to scrap presidential age limit
"The president assented to the bill and it is now law," said press secretary Don Wanyama.
"The previous law was discriminatory in nature but this has been dealt with for the good of Ugandans."
The amendment reimposes a two-term limit on the presidency scrapped by ruling party MPs in 2005 allowing Museveni, in power since 1986, to run for a third, fourth and fifth term in elections widely criticised as being unfair.
Wanyama dismissed the notion that the law was tailored to allow Museveni&39;s sixth term as "speculative".
But veteran opposition leader Kizza Besigye described the law change as part of "a well-orchestrated plan to have Museveni rule for life".

Container Gardening
Even though there is still snow on the ground, one can still get ready for spring/summer
planting now. Gardeners can start preparing their containers/pots for spring planting.
Containers/pots are a great way to create splashes of colors in areas of the garden that
may not otherwise be able to have plants grow due to sun conditions, poor soil or are
situated on decks/patios.
Be ahead of the game by preparing your containers now to make spring tasks a little
less "busy" come planting time. One should never use a dirty container as there can be
harmful organisms that linger on the inside of the containers/pots, so clean your
containers/pots now. Wash out the inside of the containers/pots with warm soapy water
and if need be use a strong scrub brush to remove any excess old soil or roots stuck on
the inside of the containers/pots. Turn upside down to get extra water out and then dry
the inside out with paper towels or an old rag. If you are storing the containers/pots
outside make sure they are completely dry to avoid cracking. Once the weather warms
up enough, any temperature over the freezing mark during the day and no lower than -5
Celsius at night you can start adding your soil to the containers/pots. Use a good
quality soil as your plants will have to rely on the nutrients from this soil all growing
season and maybe a little help from some fertilizer throughout the season. Using soil
from your garden is much to "heavy" and ends up compacting as you water and thus
retains too much water which will affect your plants from growing properly.
Make sure your containers/pots have adequate drainage. Plants become waterlogged
if there is no drainage and the roots will rot, killing your plants. Make sure there is at
least one larger hole in the containers/pots and if necessary (and able) make more
Containers/pots require more water than plants that grow in garden beds, as they dry
out quicker, so providing suffcient water is necessary. Test your soil by sticking your
finger in the soil up to the second knuckle. If it is dry, water. If it is moist or wet, wait until
it is dryer.
One can use most any type of containers/pots for flowers. But once again make sure
there is adequate drainage. Old cans, old decorative pots/buckets even old cowboy
boots can be used, just make sure they have been washed and cleaned properly. If you
find a clay or glass pot that may work, you may not be able to drill drainage holes but
you can place washed rocks in the bottom (about 1-2 inches thick). Be careful of not
over watering, as the water will drain to the bottom and sit and will take the roots a
longer time to absorb the excess water.
Almost any plant will do well in containers/pots as long as you know what kind of care
the plants need. Combining multiple plants in the same containers/pots will require
similar watering, light and care needs (don't plant shade loving plants with sun loving
plants or water loving plants with succulents).
Having different multiple plants in one container/pot will have an attractive appearance
for visual effect and add dimension to the container/pot. Combine a plant with height, a
plant that is bushy (something that will fill out over the growing season) and a plant that
"spills" over the edges. The container/pot may look sparse in the beginning but within a
few days/weeks everything will fill out and grow and fill the container/pot completely for
a look that others will be envious of.

Barbara was responsible for driving local PR for the opening of our first Seasons 52 restaurant in Dallas and she lived up to her long standing reputation of delivering results."
Stephen Judge, President, Seasons 52
"A huge thank you for your incredible work that you've done over the last few months on RE:DEFINE. You are wonderful to work with, and secured us just simply incredible and invaluable coverage of both the event, and for the Foundation (and I see that it's continuing to come through!)."
Georgia Arnold, Senior Vice President, Social Responsibility, MTV Networks International

The Buzzell Company created opportunities in every possible form of media. The Buzzell Company worked to position us for every new store opening across America. I can't say enough good about the attention and service Barbara and her team gave to Sur La Table during our growing years."
Renee Behnke, President Emeritus and Owner, Sur La Table
"Barbara runs one of the top PR agencies in Dallas, a restaurant-crazed city where she's earned respect among both restaurants and the media - not an easy task. Her longevity and experience give her a sense of history and depth of knowledge that few of her peers possess. As someone on her media list, I appreciate her focus and precision, and know that, if I receive a missive from her or one of her staff, it's going to be useful and not just another piece of junk mail that wastes my time and energy. When she sends out releases, she knows what kind of information I need, and that includes everything from the personalities to the gritty details like addresses, phone numbers, and the like. And I'm confident that the information she provides will be correct, which makes my job easier -- the ultimate gift."
Teresa Gubbins, Senior Editor, CultureMap
"I've had the opportunity to work with Barbara on numerous occasions. I've found that over the years her knowledge of the Dallas restaurant market, her ability to build solid relationships with key media contacts, and her keen insights of knowing what's important and what resonates in the community has resulted in well-crafted and executed Public Relations strategies."
Michael Archer, CEO, Houlihan's Restaurants

During our last class, our professor had brought up a good point on how although people may look alike, (race, gender, hair color, build, ect.) it is very unlikely that two people share the very same interests or hobbies. I thought about this as I myself have a very diverse group of friends who all enjoy many of the same things. Many of you im sure have witnessed someone say, "look at that guy" or "I wouldn't trust that woman" or comments of that nature. I feel that this is unfortunately the internal of society today. Whether it be through media, music, or peers, people today have such a habit of judging others and choosing who to associate with simply based off image. However, I have often though of the other half to this equation. My father would always tell me when I was a kid going somewhere to act appropriate and look presentable because I was representing my family. I have always dressed the way I have wanted, and done the things I have done on my own accord. But as much as I like agree with someone being yourself, I do happen to agree to an extent of what image one portrays themselves as.

The Special Effects Dance Floor Lighting Upgrade
Special Effects Dance Floor Lighting is pretty much mandatory in every club. Could you imagine a club without having any dance floor lighting? Lighting creates the mood for anything whether it is monogram or Special Effects Dance Floor Lighting.
Furthermore, if you want your event whether it is a wedding, corporate or birthday party to be the talk of your guests, I highly recommend lighting.
Dancing is usually the standard to tell if people are having a good time or not. Since dancing is the goal, why not give them more reason to dance with special effects dance floor lighting. You can be assured that mood is just right to get your friends, family and or co-workers to dance.
If you want something romantic, it is typically done in less light. If you playing bingo or basketball,then you need all the light possible.
In conclusion, lighting is critical for any event. The questions is do you want people to have an OK time or do you want people to have the time of their lives? One must think about the type of party that they want. You best believe that if you have some special effects dance floor lighting at your private event, that people will definitely be talking about your party for years to come.
Check out some different examples of lighting below.

For thousands of years, we've told spooky stories around the campfire, both fascinated and repelled by the things that go bump in the night. Those stories form an important part of our mythology, going back countless generations. For whatever reason, we're drawn to the idea of ghosts and demons, vampires and witches.
Our original fairy tales, gloomy and grim, were long ago sanitized for children. But the fantastical, the supernatural and the spooky are back - for adults - with a vengeance. And fairy tales, with all their dark edges and grittiness restored, are once again in the limelight. While the campfire stories may have ceased, we still manage to escape into supernatural worlds, where zombies, aliens and monsters reign —fantastical tales we now find in books, movies, television and video games.
While some people simply love to be scared, fundamentallly these stories allow us to face our fears – and then master them. (Even if, occasionally, we are still afraid of the dark.)

"Clean and round,
Heavy and sound,
Inside every bulb a flower is found."
Old Poem
I don't know how it happens but each autumn time magically slips by for me and before I know it, it's November and I still have garden chores to complete before the snow falls - like planting bulbs. And of course, this autumn is no different even when I promised myself I would be proactive. But between family events, attending the GWA symposium and having other commitments on those sunny warm days, the days I am free to get the chores done - it is miserable, cold and pouring down rain. So here sits my bowl full of bulbs still waiting to be planted and again today the weather has not co-operated but I did hear that the sun is to shine tomorrow afternoon.
Planting spring blooming bulbs in the fall is important so that you can be greeted with colour after 5 to 6 months of winter's white. There is just something magically about seeing the bulbs burst forth as the snow begins to melt brightening up the spring landscape. Here are just a few tips to ensure your bulbs bloom successfully next spring:
1. Make sure the soil has good drainage - sandy loam is best. Bulbs dislike damp soils that may be waterlogged come spring as your bulbs will rot and all your hard work will be for naught.
2. Bulbs look best when clustered together in mass plantings as opposed to planting one here and one there. This is especially important for the small bulbs like Muscari and Squill.
3. Your bulbs will benefit from a little bone meal, bulb booster, or compost mixed into the soil at the bottom of the planting hole.
4. Remember to plant your bulbs at a depth of 2 to 3 times the diameter of the bulb with the roots down and the growing tip up. For any bulbs in which you cannot determine the root end, plant them on their side and the stem will find its way up to the soil surface.
5. Once your bulbs bloom next spring, leave the foliage to die back naturally before cutting back. This will alow the plant to divert energy back into the bulb so it can bloom for you the next year. This goes for naturalized plants in lawns too - let the foliage die down before mowing.
6. If you are blessed with an abundance of squirrels as I am you may have trouble keeping your bulbs in the ground. Some say that squirrels dislike Daffodils - so plant more of these or you may want to try one of the commercial squirrel repellent products.
Take heart, if the ground is not yet frozen and there are still a few weeks in which your bulbs can set some roots you still have time to plant a few spring blooming bulbs. You may wonder as your fingers are freezing setting the bulbs but you will be visually and spiritually rewarded next spring.
Happy planting!

Viviane is a wonderful trainer who really understood our puppy Sawyer's needs. She equipped us with tools to establish good behavior habits and he has shown vast improvement in just a few weeks. Viviane addressed several different issues from begging to showing signs of attachment with patience and ease. We now feel best equipped to perpetuate his good behavior and feel that Sawyer is a happier puppy as a result!

Between a private training session and puppy classes at PumpkinPups I learned A to Z about my puppy and how to help integrate him into our family. I have a 4-year-old son, so I knew it was important to socialize the puppy and learn how to communicate with him. Puppy class with co-trainers, Viviane and Rachel, made getting to know and understand our puppy lots of fun, while giving incredibly valuable information. With the training and the great socialization experiences that we were guided through, Blue is growing up to be a well-behaved and happy pup, who everyone loves to meet. Thank You!
Liz, Ditmas Park, Brooklyn
Peanut has always been obsessed with food, and her pantry raiding was very frustrating. Viviane's close questioning revealed the possibility that perhaps Peanut's behavior was driven by a real need for more calories and higher quality nutrition and was not simply an annoying habit. Since we changed her to a better quality food that is higher in protein and fat, we have noticed a pretty significant change in Peanut's behavior. Peanut has been calmer and generally seems more satisfied with her meals; she doesn't try to steal the ferret food at every opportunity, and has been less interested in our food at meal times.
I think the other major factor responsible for her amazing behavior change (including no pulling on leash) was our excursion to the beach this weekend. I have never seen her so happy or so tired. I almost can't believe the difference we've seen in her. We've always known exercise is very important for dogs, and thought we were doing a good job, but Viviane pointed out that Peanut has a much higher need for exercise than most dogs! Seeing her so happily exhausted; we are going to try our hardest to get her out much more on the weekends. Hopefully it will get cooler next month and it will be easier to do a few more mountain climbing trips. In the meantime, she will have to settle for long walking tours of other, less humid cities in Taiwan!
We will certainly keep you posted on Peanut's adventures.
Lots of love from all of us!.........Jessie, Jenny & Peanut, Taiwan
Winston came to us with some severe anxiety issues. Thanks to Viviane's help and instruction, he is now a happy guy who brings joy into our home everyday.
Viviane taught us how to work with him and bring order into chaos. She showed us how to build up Winston's confidence, and ours. From our first phone call, Viviane had immediate recommendations and steps to take. She has a holistic approach which really works.
We are truly grateful for everything she has taught us and done for us. We can't recommend her enough.
Jeff and William
I was truly enlightened after 5 minutes in Viviane's puppy kindergarten class with my Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy Donny. He was 15 weeks and already weighed over 60 pounds. For weeks before we started class our close friends and neighbors had oodles of advice - none of which sat right with me or worked to help shape good puppy manners. I knew instinctively that the best way to inspire respectful behavior was to treat a creature respectfully! Viviane's dog training methods proved me right. We praised and treated him for his puppy accomplishments and handled his difficult puppy behavior (like enthusiastically jumping up on us with his huge puppy body) by teaching him to "sit-to-say-please," and by turning away and disengaging to give him time-outs until the behavior stopped. Donny, now 7.5 months old and weighing over 90 lbs. is almost as easy to live with as a house cat. After Viviane's puppy kindergarten class I was armed with the tools (which included a training manual and email support) that will help me keep Donny on a path towards a great life with our family.
Pamela, Clinton Hill, Brooklyn
Viviane is a fantastic and very knowledgeable dog trainer. She helped us immensely when our adolescent dog Leo, became increasingly people and dog reactive while on leash. We really appreciated her positive, rewards-based approach and she had some great advice for us regarding adapting different training tools to our very crowded Brooklyn neighborhood. For example, many dog training books recommend the "look at that" game to help create positive associations with triggers and Viviane gave us some really helpful advice on how to use the game but ensure that our dog doesn't become more anxious scanning the environment for triggers. Although we only met with her once, she has continued to be a great resource for us, including helping us find an excellent dog walker/boarder in our neighborhood and connecting us with other dog owners in our neighborhood. We now have a regular walking buddy, Lexie, the pretty brown dog- our dog helps her deal with scary noises and she helps him deal with strange dogs.
Nadia and Nick, Prospect Lefferts Gardens
In the six months since we adopted Frosty, our 1 year old pit bull, we have taken a group class with Viviane and had private sessions; both have been extremely helpful for our puppy's behavioral development. Through Viviane's gentle techniques and clicker training, Frosty, who was somewhat anxious when we rescued him, has turned into a very happy and responsive dog! In addition to her classes and private sessions, Viviane has been more than generous with her time, advice and reassurance whenever we have had questions or concerns. We highly recommend her for help adapting to life with your new companion!
Tony and Jen – Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn
At the beginning our goofy, excitable dog was so wound up he could barely learn a thing in class. Viv was endlessly patient and imaginative in coming up with ways we could work to get his attention, and help him get hold of himself. By the last class, he was a model student, and of course those skills have carried over into "real life" in countless ways!
Sara, Robert & "Buce," Ft. Greene, Brooklyn
I can't say enough good things about Viviane. She is a true professional. She put us completely at ease and was able to break down the training into very simple terms. She made everything seem like common sense. She has wonderful tactics, great techniques and is a natural with dogs. With three daughters, Viviane assessed our situation and was able to adapt the training in accordance with our needs. Looking back, Viviane didn't train our dog... She actually trained us! We are forever grateful.
Nadia, Kola and family, Park Slope, Brooklyn
Looking back at the date of our last correspondence, it's hard to believe that was over 6 months ago! I think of your comments/advice everyday with our now 2 1/2-year-old pup Taylor. She has made such great progress in many areas. I wish we lived closer so that you could meet and work with Taylor. Some of our greatest challenges with Taylor took place when she was on a leash, and she has improved tremendously in that area. I am always thinking about possible triggers (for her, it includes strong wind, motorcycles, the sound of cars in the rain, etc.) for her lunging/leash biting, etc. Because we can anticipate many areas of possible anxiety for her, she rarely reacts the way she used to on the leash. I can't remember the last time she attacked the leash in the back yard, and even when she looks like she might, she stops pretty quickly. She clearly trusts us now too. We discovered a local dog park, and that has changed her life dramatically. She is such a happy and social girl and is a star at the park with her signature "keep away" moves when she steals a ball or toy in an attempt to get other dogs to chase her. We have some other training issues to continue working on, but your advice remains on our minds always as we do so. I just wanted to send along an update to let you that you have had a tremendous impact on our lives. We are so grateful to be able to understand our puppy's unique qualities. She is such a joy to have in our lives (she also likes that she now gets to sleep on our bed!). Thank you again, and we wish you continued success with the pups that you work with in your area!

One of three winning tickets in the Powerball jackpot was purchased in Shallotte, North Carolina by a humble 26-year-old mother of four.
Marie Holmes said she had quit working at Wal-Mart and McDonald's and was caring for her four children, one of whom has cerebral palsy.
She said the first thing she's going to do with her $188 million is tithe to her church because, as she puts it, "I wouldn't have any of it if it wasn't for God."

How To Become A Credentialed Veterinary Technician
Working as a veterinary technician can be both a rewarding and challenging career because of the care you provide to sick, injured, or abused animals. A vet tech works with veterinarians to ensure pets receive the best medical attention. Vet techs assist veterinarians with the following:
- Performing various medical tests
- Treating and diagnosing medical conditions in animals
- Assisting with dental care
- Exposing and developing x-rays
- Providing specialized nursing care
Each day vet techs are faced with new challenges, and it is important to have the proper education and training to guide them when helping animals.
Veterinary Technician Credentialing Process
To become a licensed vet tech, you may need a combination of education and training. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) accredits degree programs which may provide you with the required courses in order to work as a vet tech. The classes you take may help you prepare to work in veterinary medicine.
Some of the courses you may take include:
- Animal medicine
- Animal dentistry
- Biology
- Mathematics
- Animal health
Along with the coursework, your degree program may require you to have clinical experience in a veterinary office setting. The hands on training provides critical training to help prepare you for your future career as a vet tech.
Before obtaining a vet tech job you may also require to pass a credentialing exam by the AVMA. The exam consists of oral, written, and practical portions in order to determine your education and experience. The credentialing exam is regulated by the State Board of Veterinary Examiners, so your exam results can be transferred to other states.
Many states may also require that you take continuing education courses in order to remain up to date on the latest animal medicine technologies.
A career as a vet tech may require specific training and education but the hard work can pay off for a rewarding career working with animals.

Taking no turns to the unexpected, Irina Shabayeva takes home the prize for clearly outshining her competition on Project Runway Season 6.
It makes me feel nothing to write this because it was so bloody obvious she would win from the very beginning.
She was such a cow from the start, yet she was obviously so much more talented than the rest that it couldn't have turned out any other way.
Don't get me wrong, I am not one to discount a girl purely for being bitchy, but this bitch was so scathingly bitchy that I really didn't enjoy hating her as much as I would have liked.
I feel deprived!
Oh well, I finally have my comeuppance: Irina is now being accused of stealing intellectual property from New York Magazine! Bwa ha ha.
After accusing other designers of copying her designs, Irina herself copied the contents of an entire article from New York Magazine and applied them as a silkscreen on one of her T-shirts (see photo above). It should be noted that these T-shirts themselves needed to be redone, because her first versions used classic images of Coney Island created by other artists (see photo below).
Moreover, she can't plead innocence on the issue because she was already told not to use copyrighted material once, and then she did it again… in a move that makes it look nothing short of intentional.
Perhaps she should have silkscreened the words "nothing new" and put them under a giant photo of a sun. At least that would have been an honest statement about her collection, several elements from which btw, are ripoffs of those from Proenza Schouler's A/W 2007 collection. (I'm talking the thick, high collared jackets and sequined dresses paired with edgy accessories.)
But whatever, if that's her influence, fine. Irina's entire collection was cohesive, interesting and impeccably detailed and she did deserve to win –I just feel so deflated by it all.
In an interview for the LA Times' Entertainment blog, Irina responds to the accusation with probably the stupidest dodging of creative responsibility ever:
Los Angeles Times: Have you read the blogs that talk about your T-shirts featuring material from a New York magazine article? Have you been in touch with the magazine?
Irina Shabayeva: I did. No: I haven't been in touch with them. I read some of the comments. That particular piece wasn't written by one author — they gathered all these random comments from New Yorkers. It was so funny because when I got that issue of New York I was working on the T-shirts and it was like, "Oh, my God." I thought it was one of those meant-to-be moments, serendipity. I was so excited, I was like, "What better than right from a New Yorker's mouth?" I did add some of my comments in too, so I thought it was a collective voice. I was so inspired by the article. For the T-shirts I did a burnout, this chemical technique with the clouds. I think they turned out great, and if I was a New Yorker I'd be proud that there's a T-shirt with that poetry on it.
LA Times: Their blog says that they've found their softball uniform for next year.
Irina Shabayeva: There you go. I guess they are proud!
Umm, I don't think so. She says, "They gathered all these random comments from New Yorkers" making it sound like there was no work involved. Isn't that like… what reporters do for a living?
It's one thing to copy/paste words from other sources onto a blog to prove a point (see above, which I readily cite to the LA Times!), but it's quite another to say you created original work by using someone else's writing/research with no due credit.
What do you think? Innocent until proven guilty?

During our XE to XE6 upgrade project, we felt it was time to redo our build process.
We are using FinalBuilder and ContinuaCI produced by VSoft Technologies in Canberra, Australia.
During the process we ran into some minor bugs, in the product. We also had some major and minor feature requests.
Anytime I ran into one of these, I would shoot off an email to the product support email address.
Sending an email to them would result in a automatic Ticket Number response email from the FogBugz software they are using. I don't know much about FogBugz, but as customer I love the interaction and being able to see the status of the emailed ticket at any time.
Then after sending the email, I would then leave for the day, the next morning I would come in and have a response to my ticket.
What made me happy about these responses was most of the time they contained a link to a build with a fix to the problem I was experiencing. If I had made a minor feature request, that commonly was also implemented in the same time period. For major feature requests, I was informed that the request was placed on the list to implement, some times with follow up questions to ensure they knew what I was asking for.
Typical response time for a bug fix: < 24 hours.
Longest I remember waiting on a bug fix < 2 weeks.
As a customer I have never felt my opinion or bug was under valued or should be discounted because of some other mitigating factor. A behavior I commonly get from other companies.
I could be getting lucky with my requests, but I highly doubt it as we have seen this behavior several times over the years we have been using their products. I am sure sooner or later something nasty will come up that will take longer, but I know it won't just be sidelined, it will be worked on, and I will be kept informed of what is going on.
My point is, VSoft Technologies really has support covered. I wish other companies, I work with had that level of support.

Where would our snappy and instant candids be without word bubbles, comic callouts, time and location stamps, and even emoji to cover up what's best left unseen? Apple's new video app, Clips lets you add just such overlays to your video. They're not very elaborate yet but several of them are elegantly animated and can definitely ramp up the fun factor.
- What kind of overlays are included in Clips?
- How do you add live overlays to your Clips?
- How do you add overlays to existing Clips?
- How do you edit overlays?
- How do you delete an overlay… or many?
What kind of overlays are included in Clips?
Clips comes with several overlay types built right in:
- Bold type old
- Comic
- News
- Bold type
- Text arrow
- Label
- Circle
- Square
- Check
- Arrow
- Simple arrow
- Bubble
- Speech bubble
- Time
- Handwritten
- Location
- Hello
Time and Location are dynamic and will update as the clock ticks and your position changes.
You also have easy access to your frequently used emoji. (Literally whatever is in the Frequently Used section of your emoji keyboard at the time.)
How do you add live overlays to your Clips?
You can set an overlay so it's live and in place before you start recording your video or snapping your photo. That way, you can frame things perfectly for a speech bubble or emoji poop, whatever floats your boat. (Including a literal floating emoji boat!)
Note: Overlays will request access to your location. That's because one of the overlays displays your location so you can superimpose it over your Clips, similar although not yet as varied or elaborate as Snapchat location filters.
- Tap on the Overlays button, top right.
- Swipe left to access overlays, right to access emoji (if you're not already on the gallery you want.)
- Tap on the overlay or emoji you want to use.
Repeat the same process to add additional overlays.
Don't worry if it's not positioned perfectly, you can edit it at any time (fix it in post!)
How do you add overlays to existing Clips?
You can also add overlays to any video, photo, or even Title Card you've already inserted.
- Tap on the Clip you want to overlay.
- Tap on the Overlays button, top right.
- Swipe left to access overlays, right to access emoji (if you're not already on the gallery you want.)
- Tap on the overlay or emoji you want to add.
Repeat the same process to add additional overlays.
How do you edit overlays?
Once you've added an overlay (or several) you can customize them in several ways:
- Tap on the text to edit it. (Including emoji.)
- Pinch with two fingers to scale the size.
- Twist with two fingers to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise.
Touch and drag to reposition the overlay anywhere on the screen.
You can tap directly on the text to start editing what the overlay says. To manipulate the entire overlay, though, you need to tap to select it first, then scale, rotate, or reposition.
How do you delete an overlay… or many?
If you add an overlay or several and later change your mind about one or many of them, they're even easier to make go away.
- Tap on the overlay you want to delete.
Tap the Delete button (looks like an X) that appears to its upper left.
If, due to the overlays' position, the X is offscreen and you can't see it, touch and drag the overlay towards the center first, then hit the delete button.

Dear children, Mommy and Daddy just want some sleep for Christmas.
We know it is very exciting to be a newly walking baby and that growing like 4 molars at once is a major bummer but you still must sleep. Especially with us all being sick with the plague!
Sleep is the perfect way to hide from those teeth pains and the unfortunate symptoms of sickness, Everly has it all figured out. She can sleep right through a plane crash I bet cause she certainly sleeps right through your wailing when you wake and your assertive demands to nurse when your dad comes to you in the middle of the night instead of me.

Wentzien posthumously honored by ICCSD
IOWA CITY– Area students can thank the pioneering work of Iowa City Community School District employee H. Troy Wentzien, who led the way in bringing school technology to the head of the class in Iowa and the U.S.
Starting in 1993, Wentzien built ICCSD's system-wide network, even updating to fiber optic lines, in a process that continues today as nearly all ICCSD schools are lined with fiber optic networks.
At a dedication ceremony Oct. 10 at the ICCSD Education Services Center, colleagues described Wentzien as a generous, energetic and hard-working network administrator with a "Macgyver-like" skill set.
Co-workers shared stories about Wentzien including a legendary trick that involved a remote-control car.
Pulling cable is a time-consuming task cut short by Wentzien who ran some ceiling wires the length of a school building with his kids' toy. He also helped build the Solon schools' networking as a volunteer, helping bring the district into the Internet age.
His wife, Kris, is the school district secretary in Solon.

A new English-speaking branch of the Junior Chamber of Commerce (JCI) has been established in central Jutland. The group offers professional development and networking for foreign and Danish employees in companies in central Jutland.
"Many international newcomers who move to this region are young professionals who are starting their careers and they need to develop their network with other internationals and local Danes. That is where the new JCI branch can help a lot, thanks to the support of the two Danish branches," said Anja Voller from the local Business Council in Herning.
"To ensure that companies continue attracting needed professionals and that these professionals would be willing to stay in the area, it is important that the community supports the businesses by making the area attractive for international newcomers. The new English-speaking JCI department is helping to make the area more attractive for internationals; therefore it is a great asset for local businesses. We expect that the new JCI branch will help to ensure that international employees will be willing to stay here a bit longer," says Anja Voller.
The club meets once a month for lectures, courses or company visits and also works on projects such as Young Leader of the Year, Better Integration, etc.
