What to do in Cairns
Cairns is a city in Queensland with miles and miles of stunning coastline. It's a dream destination for both local and international travellers who love to explore the rich waters of Australia. That's why you should come to Cairns too and have a cracker of a holiday.

Take a walk on the wild side next and start your awesome adventures outdoors. Explore the rainforests and tour Mossman Gorge, Daintree River, Cape Tribulation, and the Cairns Highlands. Then conquer the rapids and go white water rafting in Tully River.
Of course, you can't miss the opportunity to see the Great Barrier Reef. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is world-famous for its beauty, rich marine and plant life, and is one of the Australia's icons. Don't forget to say hi to Nemo when you go snorkelling and scuba diving around the reef!
From the sea to the sky, have a go at skydiving, hang gliding, and riding a hot air balloon around the Cairns region. Then plant your feet firmly on the ground by going to the beautiful Cairns Botanic Gardens and the exciting Cairns Wildlife Dome. You can also relax in the city's artificial lagoon on the promenade near the pier, where you can swim, sunbake, and have a barbie.
If you want to take a piece of Cairns back home, just go shopping. The Esplanade and the Cairns Central Shopping Centre are excellent spots for you to find souvenirs and other items. And if you get hungry, these shopping destinations have a great selection of food too.

Tiger Airways Seeks Alliances to Boost Overseas Revenue
Kyunghee ParkTiger Airways Holdings Ltd., a low-cost carrier partly owned by Singapore Airlines Ltd., said it's seeking to forge alliances with other airlines to boost overseas revenue after losses widened.
The carrier plans to focus initially on filling its planes with passengers, and then on improving yields through partnerships to raise earnings, Chief Executive Officer Lee Lik Hsin told reporters in a conference call in Singapore yesterday.
"We want to try to increase the overseas revenue contribution to our revenue base," said Lee, who became CEO in May. "We need to market ourselves more like a network carrier rather than a point-to-point carrier. In order to grow and grow profitably, we need to expand beyond that."
Tiger Air has grounded planes, canceled aircraft orders and exited overseas joint ventures as part of a restructuring after posting three straight annual losses. The efforts are symptomatic of the challenges budget airlines face in Southeast Asia, where competition among half a dozen carriers has pushed fares down.
Tiger Air's loss widened to S$65.2 million ($53 million) in the quarter ended June from S$32.8 million a year earlier because of costs incurred from closing its Indonesia venture and Australia operations.
Shares of Tiger Air fell as much as 5.6 percent, the biggest intraday decline since June 23, to 42 Singapore cents and traded at 43 cents as of 9:34 a.m. in the city. The stock has fallen 16 percent this year, compared with a 5.7 percent climb in Singapore's benchmark Straits Times Index.
Reduce Flights
The airline is also looking at reducing flights to destinations where demand has weakened, Lee said. It's waiting for approval from authorities to strengthen the company's partnership with Scoot, the long-haul budget carrier of Singapore Air, he said.
"Much of the issues and much of drain came from some of these joint ventures which we were not able to make work," Lee said. "With the exit from these joint ventures, everyone in the company is feeling confident that we are in a good position."
The airline filled 84.7 percent of its seats in the quarter, compared with 83.9 percent a year earlier. Capacity is expected to remain little changed this year, the company said without elaborating.
Tiger Air is considering options for four aircraft that were returned after its Indonesia venture closed earlier this month, including selling them, Lee said. The company said earlier this year it plans to ground eight aircraft in the 12 months ending March.

The EU's general court has blocked an attempt to force the European Central Bank to release files showing how Greece used derivatives to hide its debt in the run-up to the financial crisis. The case was brought by Bloomberg News under the EU's freedom of information rules in August 2010 but was thrown out on Thursday by the court in Luxembourg. ... The ruling means European taxpayers who are footing the bill for the €240bn Greek bailout will not find out whether EU officials knew of irregularities in Greece's national accounts before they became public in 2009.If we're allowed to know what they did, we may not throw money at them the next time.

Panthers took the unusual step of sending a videotape of the game to the league to "prove our point." Darryl Olsen, the Panthers' Canadian defenceman, was knocked out after allegedly being hit from behind during Saturday's match, which Panthers lost 3-7 on their own rink. The Cardiff import, Marty Yeuchuck, was thrown out of the game after the flare-up in the 52nd minute.
Panthers are particularly concerned about the Olsen incident, but there are other aspects of the match they want the Superleague to take a look at. A Panthers spokesman said: "We decided not to involve the police but to allow the Superleague to deal with the matter. We have sent a tape of the game to them and hope they take the necessary action. They have the power to award penalties."
Olsen missed training yesterday, along with the forward Derek Laxdal who was also injured during the game No one was available for comment at Cardiff Devils.
Sheffield Steelers will go to Finland next month for the semi-finals of the European Cup after completing a satisfying hat-trick of quarter- final wins. The British grand slam winners followed defeats of their Pool C rivals Hielo Jaca, of Spain, and Tilburg Trappers, of the Netherlands, with a 4-1 conquest of the section runners-up, Steaua Bucharest.
In next month's semi-finals in Finland, they face the host club and Finnish champions, HPK Hameenlinna, the Norwegian champions, Storhamar Hamar, and the top side from either Belarus, Estonia or Kazakhstan.

BIRMINGHAM, ala. — Hundreds of people black and white, many holding hands, filled an Alabama church that was bombed by the Ku Klux Klan 50 years ago Sunday to mark the anniversary of the blast that killed four little girls and became a landmark moment in the civil rights struggle.
The Rev. Arthur Price taught the same Sunday school lesson that members of 16th Street Baptist Church heard the morning of the bombing — "A Love That Forgives." Then, the rusty old church bell was tolled four times as the girls' names were read.
Bombing survivor Sarah Collins Rudolph, who lost her right eye and her sister Addie Mae Collins in the blast, stood by as members laid a wreath at the spot where the dynamite device was placed along an outside wall.
Rudolph was 12 at the time, and her family left the church after the bombing. She said it was important to return in memory of her sister, who was 14, and the three other girls who died: Carole Robertson and Cynthia Wesley Morris, both 14, and Denise McNair, 11.
"God spared me to live and tell just what happened on that day," said Rudolph, who testified against the men convicted years later in the bombing.
Congregation members and visitors sang the hymn "Love Lifted Me" and joined hands in prayer. The somber Sunday school lesson was followed by a raucous, packed worship service with gospel music and believers waving their hands.
During the sermon, the Rev. Julius Scruggs of Huntsville, president of the National Baptist Convention USA, said, "God said you may murder four little girls, but you won't murder the dream of justice and liberty for all."
Later Sunday, attendees of an afternoon commemoration included Attorney General Eric Holder, Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley, former U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the Rev. Joseph Lowery and director Spike Lee, who made a documentary about the bombing.
The church was full, with the only surviving mother of one of the girls, Maxine McNair, sitting in the front row.
Holder called the girls' deaths "a seminal and tragic moment" in U.S. history and recalled gains that followed their killings, including the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act.
Alluding to the Supreme Court decision this year that struck down a key part of the voting law, Holder said the struggle continues decades later. "This a fight that we will continue," Holder said.
The dynamite bomb went off outside the church Sept. 15, 1963. Of the Klansmen convicted years later, one remains imprisoned. Two others died in prison.
Birmingham was strictly segregated at the time of the bombing, which occurred as city schools were being racially integrated for the first time. The all-black 16th Street Baptist was a gathering spot for civil rights demonstrations for months before the blast.

dead moss or sodden leaves
or last year's fir needles. Each hillside speaks
the labored rhythm of my breath, my bellows-lungs,
the pistons of my thighs-- Down. Up. Down. Up.
These hills will know my feet, but not as shoes,
one pair among ten million trampling past
in haste. These sidewalks will remember toes
that like fingers gripped, caressed,
lifted reluctant from a loving clasp. Toes that scanned
the Braille message in the pebbled pavement and said yes,
yes! I know you

First Images of 'Star Wars: Episode VII' Stormtrooper Helmets Are Awesome
It appears the galaxy's most inept fighting force is getting a bit of a makeover in J.J. Abrams's Star Wars: Episode VII, and Indie Revolver has the first look. The site has scored exclusive photos of what are said to be the new helmets that Imperial Stormtroopers will be wearing in the upcoming sequel.
The first image should look pretty familiar to anyone who's spent time in a galaxy far, far away. What we're assuming is the standard Stormtrooper mask pays homage to the classic design of the original, while tweaking it for a new generation, as well. Perhaps the biggest difference is that it's asymmetrical this time out – it features a breathing vent in the mouth area only on the left side. Check it out in the photo above.
The second image features an alternate mask, for what people are referring to as "The Jungle Trooper." This one features a back neckguard, two breathing vents, and a single eye slit. See below.
All in all, both designs look great, giving fans more hope that the new trilogy will actually retain the feel and spirit of the original films. Let's just hope both of these new, modern helmets have some sort of targeting system in them so the Stormtroopers can actually hit something with their blasters on occasion.
What do you think of these designs? Critique away in the comment section below.
Which one of these people is in the movie The Accountant?

She is also interested in the use of stem cells as cell therapy to aid in the repair of injured lung and as vehicles to deliver therapeutic genes for the treatment of lung cancer.
Research Interests
Molecular Mechanisms of Pulmonary Fibrogenesis
The broad interest of our laboratory is to characterize the biochemical and molecular mechanisms that mediate fibroproliferative lung disease and lung cancer. We are using the well-characterized inhaled asbestos model of lung injury as a paradigm for inducing the initial events that lead to fibrogenesis after a single exposure or carcinogenesis upon continued exposure. We are also exploring the potential of adult stem cells to ameliorate lung injury through cellular differentiation and growth factor/cytokine secretion.

National Anthem
Silence & Noise Goddess maxi dress , Top Shop Harness belt , Sharp Bullet necklace , Jessica Simpson Dany platform, Forever21 arm bangle, .45 gun ring, Ruby Woo lip color
(Photos by Trevor)
I'm your national anthem/ Boy put your hands up/ Give me a standing ovation. And clap he did when he saw this look. It was a gloomy weekend in NYC, but in this dress, I shined like a star. I had to work different jobs throughout the day, but I had to fit in some date time, so I needed something easy to change in and out of.
Easy doesn't have to mean boring, so I went with a simple, yet sexy, maxi dress from Urban Outfitters. It fits me perfectly (it's rare that something actually fits my waist) and the slits in the front give all kinds of drama when I walk. We hung out near the water in the financial district, so there was also plenty of wind to emphasize how major this dress is.
Of course I couldn't just be pretty in my dress and red lipstick, I had to break out the gun ring, the bullet necklace, and my current obsession: my harness belt from Top Shop. I fully intend on wearing it to death because it is just that awesome. Doesn't it remind you of a gun holster? Ahhh... it's a love story for a new age.

Pierre Paillard Brut
Category: | Sparkling Wine |
Varietal: | Pinot Noir, Chardonnay |
Region: | France » Champagne » Bouzy |
Producer: | Pierre Paillard |
Product Description
On the Eye: Bright and golden colours. The bubbles are tiny and very light, the result of long ageing. On the Nose: Intense, fresh and slightly toasted. We are in the heart of the Bouzy terroir with notes of citrus and yellow fruit. On the Palate: The attack is sharp, elegant and balanced. The bubbles are tiny and creamy. After early notes of apple and pear come notes of pastry, brioche, toasted bread and grilled almonds. Recommendation: Brioche and cheese pastry Poultry and white meats. Any type of fish.
Wine Spectator
Top 100: 2013, Rank: 88 Shows lovely balance, with a satiny quality to the refined mousse and mouthwatering acidity meshing with pure notes of poached quince, lemon mousse, white cherry and fresh ginger. Offers a lightly chalky finish. Disgorged January 2012. Drink now through 2020. 6,000 cases made.
Score: 92, Alison Napjus, June 30, 2013International Wine Cellar
(60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, from Bouzy; based on 2007, with 20% reserve wine from 2006): Light, bright yellow. Ripe pear and redcurrant aromas are complicated by rose oil, anise and toasty lees. A hefty, palate-coating Champagne that offers pliant orchard fruit flavors and a touch of orange marmalade. Finishes smooth and broad, with very good sappy persistence. I'd serve this broad-shouldered Champagne with a richly sauced poultry dish or strong cheeses.
Score: 90, Josh Raynolds, December 2011You may also like:

Blessed Melchior Rafael Chylinski of the Order of St. Francis
Written and researched by Margaret Odrowaz-Sypniewski
© 2000.
Melchior Chylinski was born on January 8, 1680/1690 in the village of Wysacaka (Wysoczka),Poland; near Buk, in the Archdiocese of Poznan. His father was John Arnold (Arnolfa) Chylinski and Margaret (Mariann) Kierski of the nobility. Although Rafael was born into the nobility, he left his hereditary rights and privileges to become a Conventual Franciscan.
Melchior attended school in the village of Buk. His father, John Arnold Chylinski, died of the plague on October 8, 1707. Their manor house was burned to the ground. Since they no longer had a home, Bishop Stanislaus Kierski helped Margaret Kierski raise her sons. It is not specified (in my source) whether the Bishop was Margaret's kin. However, there is a good chance he was her brother. Bishop Stanislaus Kierski sent both boys to a Jesuit school in Poznan.
In 1712, Melcior served in the Polish Army and became an officer. In 1715, he left the Army and moved to Cracow, where he joined the Franciscan Fathers as a cleric. On April 4, 1715, Rafael was baptized into the order and received the name Rafael. On April 26, 1715, he was professed. He was ordained to the priesthood (in Poznan) in 1717. He traveled to monasteries in Radziejow, Poznan, Gniezno, Warsaw, Kalisz, Warta, and Crakow. From 1728-1736, he served in the Lageiewniki, part of the parish of Lodz. He died there on December 2, 1742.
Rafael devoted his life to prayer, and he cared for the poor and the sick, often serving water to the dying. He worked on saving souls, and was an exorcist. It was said that he used no Latin or rhetoric in his sermons, but spoke in the language of his people. He repeated: "My soul, love God. Love Jesus and the Blessed Mother."
Rafael cared for his mother, by permission of his superiors, after their home was burned. She lived in Lagiewnik. In 1736, during the Cracow (Krakow) plague, he cared for the sick in hospitals and in their homes.
He honored the crucified Christ, and his suffering, pain, and death at every mass he celebrated. He often repeated: "Oh, how good, how good is God. We have a Good Lord."
He wore a hair shirt, metal belt, and did scourging. He slept for only three hours and many times his bed was a bare board on the floor. He fasted and endured two leg ulcers.
After his death, God favored him with glory to those who prayed to him.
In 1761, when his body was exhumed, his body was still intact and was moved to an oaken casket. Wladyslaw Lubienski, primate of Poland, and his committee examined Rafael's life. In 1765/6, King Stanislaw Poniatowski and clergy requested beautification, but the partition of Poland stopped this action.
His casket was opened again on May 13, 1949; before the Bishop of Lodz. Again his remains were in a good state of preservation and again he was dressed in a new habit. Pope Pius XII declared him venerable, and he was buried in Lagiewnik. He was beautified on June 9, 1991; by Pope John Paul II:
Father Rafael was never a deputy, or a member of Parliament. He chose the vocation of a poor son of St. Francis, but his witness is very similar. His life was hidden. hidden in Christ; it was a protest against the conscience, the attiude and self-destructive behavior of the nobility in those Saxon times, and we know how the story ended. But why does Providence remind us of this today? Why only now has this process matured through all the signs of earth and heaven, and can we proclaim Father Rafael blessed? Look for the answer to this question. We are searching for the answer to this question. The Church does not have the answer at hand. The Pope does not want to suggest any interpretation to you. All of us, 35 million Poles should reflect together on the meaning of this beatification in the year of our Lord 1991.
These are the words, as spoken by Pope John Paul II.

Most people reading this will not have had the opportunity to encounter real sashimi in their lives, even if they order it weekly at a restaurant. This is not because one cannot eat "real sashimi" unless one is in Japan. Although I think it would be difficult to do so (and I shall explain why later), this is not what I mean. I mean that the fish must be absolutely fresh, caught just that morning, and of the highest possible quality. So if one lives inland rather than in a coastal area, one will almost certainly be served fish that has been frozen. This changes the character, texture, and flavour of the flesh entirely.
Frozen fish is certainly fine for such things as ceviche or even a carpaccio. In the former case, the flavour of the lime and garlic used to cook the raw fish is inherently part of the dish. In the latter, fresh extra virgin olive oil and various herbs provide a great deal of the flavour.
Even in the case of sushi, the vinegared rice, the dab of wasabi used to secure the fish to the rice (in the case of nigiri-zushi, the nori seaweed used in maki), are all components of the dish. The frozen salmon or yellowtail or tuna that is inevitably served as sushi in most restaurants is helped along in this way.
However with sashimi, the fish is nakedly alone as well as raw.
Sashimi can be made with a vast array of fish from tuna to seabream and even cuttlefish. The various delicate flavours are brought forth primarily by the artistry of the chef. Whereas children can be taught to roll out a presentable cucumber-maki, a chef who presents sashimi must have many many years of training, experience, and a particular talent. Finding a restaurant with such a chef is the other matter that makes eating real sashimi difficult.
The crux is in the slicing of the fish. The most common way of slicing sashimi is called "hirazukuri". This consists of slicing it flat, about one centimeter in thickness and several centimeters long. But then there is "kakuzukuri", which is slicing into cubes. "Kawazukuri", slicing yet retaining the skin. "Ikezukuri", which is bit dreadful: slicing of a living fish. And it is through the nuances of methods like these that the sashimi releases its full depth and richness.
Sashimi is served along with ocha (green tea) on a platter with arrangements of garnishes such as shredded daikon, seaweed, shiso leaves, gari and various pickles. Plain rice and perhaps miso soup would be served alongside. Saké would be served before and/or after the meal, but not during.
If you are living in a coastal area, please enjoy sashimi as often as you can. If not, you are probably best to have sushi instead. Always feel free to ask the chef which fish is freshest and how fresh it is.
And of course you can make "sashimi" with frozen salmon or whatever is available. I even call some dishes made with tomatoes and mushrooms "sashimi". But real sashimi does not have quotation marks around it. It is naked and on its own.
I certainly hope I have not hurt anyone's feelings with this writeup. alex.tan said that the truth doesn't hurt. My intention was only to say what I know about sashimi.

Today I drove from the south coast of Puerto Rico up to the El Yunque rain forest to collect a couple of new species to run. This took me past the famed Guavate lechoneras, so I stopped in for lunch. This is my favorite place to eat in Puerto Rico, and it didn't disappoint. Roasted pork, rice, and sweet plantains. DELICIOUS! And here is a link to a video where you can see the place ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5p1Mbi-5AU). It's towards the end of the clip.

2012 PhD, Geography, George Mason University
Geovisualization; Spatiotemporal Data Modeling; High Performance Geocomputation; Web-based GIS.
My research interests are moderately diverse, but all fall into the general area of GIScience. They may be grouped into three more specific areas: geovisualization, spatiotemporal data modeling high performance geocomputation and web GIS. The three research areas discussed above are not mutually exclusive but complementary to each other. Natural and social phenomena are featured with high degree of spatial and temporal complexity (e.g., dust storms, wildfires, flight trajectories). To enhance our understandings of these phenomena and to support advanced scientific explorations, I have been working with my colleagues to investigate novel visualization and analytical methods, data management algorithms and state-of-the-art computing techniques. My recent work on using Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to accelerate the visualization of dust storms can be found here.

Hoverflies aka Flower Flies, or in this case Drone-Fly (Syrphidae) are characteristically known for their mimicry of bees, wasps or bumblebees, they have the same the bright colors and sometimes dense hair covering of bumblebees, but are completely defenseless. Flower flies cannot sting. Their specialty is hovering like humming birds, but they are also very fast and maneuverable flyers. The larva of the Drone-Fly feeds on decaying organic material in stagnant water in small ponds, ditches and drains, pools around manure piles, sewage, and similar places containing water badly polluted with organic matter. Such water usually contains little or no oxygen and the larva breathes through the long thin tube that extends from its rear end to the surface of the water and that gives it its common name of 'rat-tailed maggot'. Adult Drone Flies feed on nectar from flowers and are often seen hovering in front of flower blooms in gardens in urban and rural areas. As such, they are helpful pollinators which is why they were introduced to North America from Europe in the 1800's. Adults can be found in Florida from late March to early December and most often in September and October.

Ritz Cracker
It's been almost two years since the Bistro 24 that Valley Francophiles knew and loved took a turn for the boring. A new chef had arrived in the spring of 2000, and attempted to bring a simplified, more relaxed dining experience to the classically inspired French restaurant that is the Ritz-Carlton's flagship eatery. That meant dismissing a lengthy menu with very bistro-like stars such as escargot, filet of beef à la Bourguignonne, pâté du jour with Cornichons, croque monsieur, coq au vin and bouillabaisse. Instead, the condensed offering emphasized mostly familiar flavors like ahi tuna, filet mignon, lamb chops and chicken. Sauces were lightened, and complicated dishes deconstructed to accommodate a more timid dining crowd. Dull, dull, dull.
Things are looking brighter these days. A new chef has been introduced, and those oh-so-French favorites have returned in all their glory. Executive chef Robert Graham has expanded the menu back to its grand status, with dishes like napoleon of duck confit, smoked salmon tart, beef Wellington and fillet of sole meunière.
The "aujourd'hui" daily specials fit fancy French blue-plate form. Tuesday is coq au vin, Wednesday is cassoulet and Thursday is Châteaubriand, for example.
But where is the escargot? It's so hard to find stunning snails in this town, even though we've got our own escargot ranch raising the critters in Cave Creek.
Saucy Fellow: Sir Charles Taylor has checked in, and wants fans of his Texas-style barbecue to know that he does hope to surface yet again, after the recent closure of his Sir Charles Barbecue Pit in Phoenix. Investment plans are under way, and in the meantime, 'cue lovers can still pick up his bottled sauce at Valley AJ's.
Restaurateurs are nothing if not resilient. Can we add Taylor to the list of "can't stop 'em" chefs like Nick Ligidakis (now running Authors' Café in Scottsdale) and Norman Fierros (now working at El Encanto in Cave Creek)?
Bunny Business: For all the money that's spent on fancy Easter brunches (herb-crusted lamb, free-flowing champagne), only 16 percent of Americans dine out on the holiday, according to the National Restaurant Association's Holiday Dining 2000 survey.
And for all the get-up that goes on at restaurants (petting zoos, egg hunts, employees mortified to be dressed as giant bunnies), most diners celebrating Easter are the least likely to be impressed. Older individuals -- 65 and older -- make up the largest portion, 27 percent, of the crowd.
Kind of makes me just want to stay home and stuff myself silly with chocolate rabbits and jelly beans.

BT completes Derry fibre broadband rollout
Almost 40,000 people in Derry can now access fibre optic broadband from BT.
BT has announced the completion of its major fibre optic broadband deployment programme in a Northern Irish city.
The telecoms giant revealed just under 40,000 people will be able to access the service in Derry, which has become the first city in the UK to have all of its street cabinets upgraded to offer super-fast connectivity.
Colm O'Neill, BT's chief executive in Northern Ireland, was quoted by BBC News as saying the rollout was conducted as part of Derry's 2013 UK City of Culture programme, of which BT is one of the main sponsors.
"The vast majority of homes and businesses can avail of this but there are some for technical reasons that may have difficulty," he explained.
Mr O'Neill added Derry now has access to faster speeds and better connectivity than Hong Kong, Tokyo, London and New York.
"That is an important message for the business community to understand," he added.
As well as deploying the super-fast broadband infrastructure, BT will work with Derry's City of Culture team to help close the digital gap that exists in the area by providing residents with all the necessary skills and tools to get online.

"We are appealing to the humanitarian community for urgent assistance for the internally displaced population as the lean season may start as early as April this year," said WFP Mali Country Director Nancy Walters.
Since January, conflict in northern Mali has resulted in major population displacements both within Mali and to neighbouring countries. According to the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the number of internally displaced is currently around 95,000 people.
The population movement comes as Mali, like other countries in the Sahel area of West Africa, is already facing large deficits in food production and sharp increases in food prices.
The emergency operation has two main components: the prevention of acute malnutrition among children 6 to 59 months old and targeted food distributions for the displaced and most vulnerable populations.
Earlier this month a mission led by WFP's Deputy Executive Director Ramiro Lopes da Silva and including representatives of the government, UN agencies, donors and NGOs, met in Gao to meet the local authorities and to make an urgent evaluation of the displaced population's needs. Pending the development of a government response plan, the mission recommended an immediate intervention.
WFP with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the Malian Red Cross and other partners, will provide food assistance to the displaced population in Mali over the next 6 months in the regions of Gao, Tombouctou and Kida. The emergency operation will be implemented together with local authorities and international NGOs. In total, WFP will provide food assistance to more than a million people in Mali, including those affected by the drought.

Concrete paving contractors are placing more and more overlays--a repair option once dominated by the asphalt paving industry. Of the record 26 winners and finalists in 12 categories in the 2000 National Awards Program for Excellence in Concrete Pavement, more than one-fourth of the projects involved whitetopping of asphalt or concrete pavements. Sponsored by the American Concrete Pavement Association and Concrete Construction, the awards recognize contractors, engineers, and owners who completed outstanding projects in 1999. Read more
Steel dowels, when aligned carefully and debonded from the concrete, help to carry loads across joints in concrete slabs even after the joints have opened too much to prevent load transfer by aggregate interlock. However, traditional round dowels may cause slab cracking by restraining movement along doweled longitudinal joints when workers place large floor slabs in long, alternating strips, with infill strips placed later. When the infill concrete tries to shrink, the dowels prevent slab movement parallel to the longitudinal joint, causing internal stresses. Read more
Late in the fall of 1999, Ft. Defiance, Ariz., became the first town in Navajo Nation to replace potholed asphalt streets with concrete. The project was so successful that several other towns in the reservation are following Ft. Defiance's example. Navajo Nation is the largest Indian reservation in the United States, covering more than 25,000 square miles and encompassing portions of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. The Navajo Housing Authority decided to switch from asphalt to concrete after hearing Ft. Defiance residents complain about all the potholes in their existing asphalt roadways. A key reason for NHA's decision was the good performance of concrete pavements installed 13 years earlier in other residential areas on the reservation. Although the pavements had cracked in many places, the wearing surfaces were intact. Read more
The skid-steer loader is one the workhorses of the concrete construction industry--especially on small jobs. It can maneuver in tight spaces, excavate for slabs on grade, place and fine grade stone subgrade, and haul loads over rough terrain. More recently, it has become a tool carrier for various attachments. One new item in the tool crib is a concrete pump that attaches to the loader and uses its power supply. The attachment is especially useful for concrete placements of less than 100 cubic yards, and it can work from either side of the loader to accommodate site demands. Read more
If you are like most contractors, you are probably sprinting to get jobs completed by the end of the year, eager to get expenditures fulfilled and "off the books." But what about next year?

Here are five steps to help you build a strategic plan for your business. Read more

Honeycomb forms when mortar fails to fill voids between coarse-aggregate particles. The defect may be purely cosmetic or, depending on the location and extent of honeycombing, may be structural and require repair. Voids form when concrete fails to fill areas in a form, typically those under large blockouts, in very deep placements, or that are heavily reinforced. Voids are almost always structural defects requiring repair. Read more
Integral color--achieved by adding pigments to concrete before placement--is the most common method for coloring concrete. But successfully installing colored concrete requires that you understand and learn how to manage the problems that can arise. The concrete mix design, weather conditions, and efflorescence all can influence color intensity and uniformity. Here are tips for selecting and using integral colors to produce even-colored, consistent finishes. Read more

Established in 1979
I don't often scrapbook myself. I'm not sure why, I guess its because I have a beautiful family that inspires me to create and I'm usually the one behind the camera. But sitting on my office floor, because I couldn't even find my desk, I began to think about who I am in 2013. Mother, wife, teacher, friend was a few things that came to mind. With these thoughts I created this layout.
I hope you can get a few quite moments to reflect upon who you are in 2013 and create something beautiful.

ReplyDeletehehe I can relate to having no room on your desk. I am currently typing on a keyboard surrounded by stamps, trimmers and layouts ;).
Love that you have focussed on yourself with this page. It's beautiful :).This is really beautiful! And well done on scrapping about yourself. An often forgotten topic, but one that will become more important to you and your children as time goes on.

BARNEGAT, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) –Authorities are investigating how a commuter bus that crashed into a business undergoing renovations in southern New Jersey.
NJ Transit spokesman Dan Stessel said the bus was carrying eight passengers from Atlantic City to Lakewood when the accident happened along Route 9 near Bay Avenue in Barnegat Tuesday.
At least two passengers were injured, but those injuries are not believed to be life-threatening, said NJ Transit spokeswoman Courtney Carroll.
Carroll says the bus hit the porch of the two-story structure and did not go through the glass company on the ground floor.
The cause of the accident was under investigation.

I am concerned about my cat that I adopted about 2 weeks ago. He was adopted from a rescue that a friend of mine runs here in town. He has been neutered, dewormed, up-to-date on his shots. She was feeding him Pro Plan, but since I have had him, I have been feeding him Purina Naturals, both wet and dry. He's had runny stool, and last night when I cleaned his litter box and this morning (after finding it on my couch), I noticed a little blood. I am thinking that I should change his food. He plays and acts normally (I have played with him many times when I visited my friend when she had him during his kitten stage), so I have no concern there. I have asked my friend about his health, and she said that when she had him, he had a great appetite and was having no problems with him.
