Children need their nutrition, and you will force them to eat it. It doesn't matter how much they hate vegetables.
Let's put it this way – some moms are considered to be 'mean' to their children, but it doesn't mean mothers are actually wicked or bad people. Kids (and everybody else) know they are amazing and awesome, but at times, do not agree with certain things that mummies do, which in turn gets a thumbs down from them.
Being a mean mum helps raise respectful, decent human beings. That's what mum Meredith Ethington says in her Scary Mommy article, and in it she shares the ten signs that you are a mean mother.
1. You make our kids clean up their own messes
"Much to the dismay of my firstborn who is now 9 years old, I'm so mean that sometimes I make my kids wipe the counter and clean up their own crumbs," Meredith says. "If they walk around while simultaneously destroying the kitchen by eating cookies because they are doing jumping jacks, they will have to get out the vacuum and clean it up."
2. You make them take responsibility
Every action has its consequence: if they forgot to do their homework, they will turn it in late. If they are caught lying, they will be punished. In brief, children will be held accountable for their actions.

Take exit 40 (Bonneville Dam) of of Interstate 84. Turn south, taking a right at the fork, and continue to the parking area at the end of the road.
The trail follows Tanner Creek, following a road to the dam forthe first quarter mile. The real trail starts past the dam, almost immediately passing a large waterfall right along side the trail, which is very refreshing on a hot day. The beginning of the trail is relatively easy, but there are several tougher areas which require some care while hiking up loose rock. At 0.7 miles, a trail splits off to the right and decsends down several hundred feet down to the creek, but continue straight along the steeper path. The trail to the right forms a loop trip past the falls, but as of Sept 1999 when I hiked the trail, the bridge crossing Tanner Creek was out . After another .2 miles past the fork, the canyon ends with the powerful waterfall and an almost park-like setting.

The lower bridge on Tanner Creek was replaced this summer (2003) and the trail has been completely reworked from the trailhead, down to the new bridge and beyond that on the west side of Tanner Creek to the falls. Upper route is fine, but was not worked this summer...a little rocky.

This type of PVC has longitudanal ribs that protrude out by approx 2mm that provide additional strength to the PVC, but also work to reduce the scratching of the PVC as heavy traffic passes through.
As a forklift impacts through the strips, the main point of contact is on the rib rather than the plane surface of the strip, thus reducing the scratch effect.
Sizes Available
- 150 x 3mm
- 200 x 2mm
- 300 x 3mm.
- Strip doors
- Swingflex doors
- Rapid Auto Roll doors
These doors may at times need replacement PVC sections. This replacement PVC can be ordered, cut to suit your exact requirement or full rolls of flexible PVC can be ordered.

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
I have just released SharePoint Learning Kit 1.5 Release Candidate which is available from the
downloads page.
The main changes are to support Claims based authentication in SharePoint 2010.
Unless any major bugs are found I will move this to the stable version on 1 Feb 2011.
I've completely rewritten the code to pull the members from Active Directory domain groups. Both to handle claims based authentication and to increase performance. I've also handled the groups DOMAIN\Domain Users and NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users more
gracefully. Groups such as BUILTIN\Administrators are now supported as well.
Previously if you had multiple authentication methods i.e. NTLM for internal access and claims based for external access, how you logged in made a difference to the assignments you saw. You should now get a consolidated view of your assignments.
Bug fix. Return all button now works.
Bug fix. You can now assign work to users in an OU with a forward slash in it's name.
It should now pick up the first day of the week from the site properties.
Bug fix. Before this release it failed to do so.
SLK Coordinator
Thanks for the update, adding AD groups will certainly save a lot of time. I have just upgraded the solution but the old assignments are unavilable, when I roll back they are there, is there anything I need to do to make them available on the 1.5rc version?
Matt Brumpton
Same problem here. All new assignments are visible in the assignment list webpart but the old ones are not. No errors in either the sharepoint logfiles or the windows eventviewer. Does this have to do with the rewritten authentication? I can imagine that
the link to the user has changed becouse of that.
Wouter Berman
Yes that's correct. Previously in the useritem table, the users were keyed by their claims account name which was in the format i:0#.w|demo\fred - where demo is the domain name and fred the AD account name. This was causing problems with group membership
and also in cases where the set up was that users could log in via Integrated Windows authentication (internal) and Claims based (externally). I've now managed to link back to the original AD account when using Claims so these problems are solved.
To get access back to their previous assignments you'll need to link them to their new names if already present twice in the database, or update the key in the useritem table to their SID.

Heather Brooks earned both her undergraduate
and graduate degrees from Portland State
University. She lives and writes in the Rose City,
while completing an internship at Incight.
At an African airport, a little guy gets bored waiting for his luggage at baggage claim. So he convinces his travelling companion to lift him onto the luggage carousel. Off he goes! By this time, a lot of other passengers are watching the tiny figure in the sunglasses, wondering if he is a statue, a real person, or "the world's most handsome duffel."
He reaches the door to the baggage room at the end of the terminal without incident, but with the smiles, laughter, and shouts of "God bless you!" of the baggage handlers.
No, he is not a child.
Nor does he have dwarfism.
He is Nick Vujicic—pronounced Voy-a-chich– a 29-year-old Australian gentleman who stands three feet, three inches tall, and weighs 74 pounds, because he was born without arms or legs.
And if anyone knows how to have fun, it's Nick.
He surfs. He swims. He fishes. He golfs. He plays soccer, the drums, and keyboard. He rides horses. Most recently, he's taken up skydiving. He's figured out how to do these things independently,
He discusses this concept of ridiculous fun in his book Life Without Limits: Inspiration for a Ridiculously Good Life. Nick bases this concept his belief that "every living, breathing person on the planet should be committed to doing something ridiculous at least once a day." With that in mind he's created what he calls "the Ridiculous Rules." There are five of these rules, and they are guidelines for having, as Nick says, "ridiculous fun." To paraphrase, the rules are as follows:
1. Allow a trial period. If it's a long-term situation or commitment, such as a relationship, or a new color of paint for the living room, try a little bit temporarily, to see if your new venture is a good fit for you.
2. Do your homework. Gather as much information as you can about what you want to do. Of course you can take risks, but it's always wise to know what you don't know about your new endeavor. See item five for more details.
3. Consider the timing. Sometimes it simply is not the right time to take a risk. When N ick was 12, his family moved to California from Australia, to take advantage of the medical treatments available there for his condition. Four months later, they moved back. His parents hadn't been able to find jobs or affordable housing. It wasn't the right time. Nick loved California, though, and after he graduated college, he moved back there, and there he lives to this day. When he moved the second time, he had made all necessary arrangements, and the transition was successful.
4. Accept feedback. Ask for advice about your undertaking from those you trust.
5. Be prepared for anything. Every action has consequences, many of which are unforeseen. Always have an alternate plan should your primary vision fail.
Nick suggests that play and fun are necessary to good mental health. He cites a study of several hundred serial killers. Almost none of the subjects had regular play periods as children. Play is vital to guard against depression. The author of the study advises that work and play should be combined; we shouldn't just set aside time for leisure.
Do you ever do this? If you've ever attended a business meeting over lunch, dinner, or coffee, you have.
I do too, although until I read about it in Nick's book, I wasn't aware of doing it. I volunteer for our local classical radio station. I hold a Masters in writing with an emphasis in editing. I edited the content of their entire website. One year, for my birthday, I couldn't think of anything I'd rather do than volunteer at the station for an afternoon.
The staff thought I was crazy to work for free on my birthday, but I did just that. I provided them a service they needed while listening for four hours to music I loved. I still count that among the most wonderfully, ridiculously fun afternoons of my life!
Combining work and play is a regular habit with Nick. He travels the world as a motivational speaker, and his ride on the luggage carousel occurred on a speaking trip.
Even during his presentations, Nick has fun. He demonstrates how he answers a landline telephone. Though legless, he has a partly formed left foot. With the two toes on it, he lifts the receiver. Then he kicks upward, tossing the receiver onto his shoulder and securing it between his ear and shoulder.
The phone isn't the only thing he kicks around on stage. A keen soccer player, Nick will select a member of the audience and ask him or her to stand halfway across the room, and catch a soccer ball that he kicks to them. For each presentation, he has his caregiver or caregivers place him on a table so that he is readily visible. He walks to the table's edge, and balances there, very much to the worry of his listeners, who are usually afraid he'll topple off!
He never does.
No matter how he demonstrates it, Nick is a living example of our belief here at Incight, that having fun is a form of the independence we seek to foster among members of the disabled community. For more about Nick, his story, or his speaking engagements, read his book, or visit his Web site at www.lifewithoutlimbs.org.

Occasionally permanent pacemaker implantation is necessary – generally when tilt table testing elicits prolonged cardiac standstill.
The vast majority of scientific trials looking at the effectiveness of cardiac pacing as a treatment for neurocardiogenic syncope have not been placebo controlled. However, one recent trial – Second Vasovagal Pacemaker Study (VPS II 2003) was double-blinded and showed no benefit from pacing once the placebo effect was removed.
Unfortunately this trial did not look specifically at the group most likely to benefit from pacing – those with significant cardiac standstill on provoked syncope.

3053Untied Bikini Is An Emergency, Says Appellate Division
- Nov 25, 2013BACK SEAT PASSENGER UNTIES DRIVER'S BIKINI TOP, CAUSING HER TO LOSE CONTROL; NO LIABILITY PER EMERGENCY DOCTRINE
Pelletier v Lahm 2013 NY Slip Op 07718 Decided on November 20, 2013 Appellate Division, Second Department Edited by Lawrence N. Rogak
After a defense verdict from a Rockland County jury, plaintiff moved to set aside the verdict, which was denied, and plaintiff appealed. The Appellate Division affirmed.
The Supreme Court properly denied the plaintiff's motion pursuant to CPLR 4404(a) to set aside the verdict on the issue of liability and for judgment as a matter of law or, in the alternative, to set aside the verdict as contrary to the weight of the evidence and for a new trial. Pursuant to CPLR 4404(a), a trial court "may set aside a verdict . . . and direct that judgment be entered in favor of a party entitled to judgment as a matter of law."
Here, however, a valid line of reasoning and permissible inferences could lead a rational person to the conclusion reached by the jury on the basis of the evidence presented at trial (see Cohen v Hallmark Cards, 45 NY2d 493, 499; Lalanne v Nyack Hosp., 45 AD3d 645, 646).
Further, a verdict should not be set aside as contrary to the weight of the evidence unless it could not have been reached upon any fair interpretation of the evidence (see Lolik v Big V Supermarkets, 86 NY2d 744, 746; Dunnaville v Metropolitan Tr. Auth. of City of N.Y., 68 AD3d 1047; Artusa v Costco Wholesale, 27 AD3d 499, 500; Nicastro v Park, 113 AD2d 129, 132-137). Whether a verdict should be set aside as contrary to the weight of the evidence is not a question of law, but instead requires the discretionary balancing of various factors (see Cohen v Hallmark Cards, 45 NY2d at 499; Alatzas v National R.R. Passenger Corp., 67 AD3d 832, 833). It is within the province of the jury to determine issues of credibility, and great deference is accorded to the jury given its opportunity to see and hear the witnesses (see DeToia v Yellow Transp., Inc., 68 AD3d 804, 805; Fowler v Jamaica Bus, 62 AD3d 943).
A fair interpretation of the evidence supported the jury's determination that the defendant Brittany Lahm (hereinafter Brittany) was not negligent in the operation of her vehicle (see Nicastro v Park, 113 AD2d at 134-135).
Contrary to the plaintiff's contention and our colleague's dissent, under the particular circumstances of this case, the trial court properly charged the jury on the emergency doctrine. In assessing the propriety of whether to instruct a jury on the emergency doctrine, the trial court must "make the threshold determination that there is some reasonable view of the evidence supporting the occurrence of a qualifying emergency'" (Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d 172, 175, quoting Rivera v New York City Tr. Auth., 77 NY2d 322, 327; see Lifson v City of Syracuse, 17 NY3d 492, 497). "Only then is a jury instructed to consider whether a defendant was faced with a sudden and unforeseen emergency not of the actor's own making and, if so, whether [the] defendant's response to the situation was that of a reasonably prudent person" (Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d at 175). "The emergency instruction is, therefore, properly charged where the evidence supports a finding that the party requesting the charge was confronted by a sudden and unexpected circumstance which leaves little or no time for thought, deliberation or consideration'" (id., quoting Rivera v New York City Tr. Auth., 77 NY2d at 327).
Here, "viewing the evidence in the light most favorably toward giving the requested emergency doctrine instruction to the jury" (Kuci v Manhattan & Bronx Surface Tr. Operating Auth., 88 NY2d 923, 924), based upon Brittany's testimony, there is a reasonable view of the evidence that her conduct was the product of a "sudden and unexpected circumstance'" (Lifson v City of Syracuse, 17 NY3d at 497, quoting Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d at 174).
Contrary to our dissenting colleague's determination, Brittany's general awareness that Brandon Berman, a passenger in her vehicle, had engaged in certain distracting conduct while in the car would not preclude a jury from deciding that Brittany did not anticipate that he would suddenly pull the strings on her bikini top, thereby causing the top to fall and her breasts to be exposed (see Kuci v Manhattan & Bronx Surface Tr. Operating Auth., 88 NY2d at 924). It was for the jury to find whether Brittany was faced with a sudden and unforeseen emergency not of her own making and, if so, whether her response to the situation was that of a reasonably prudent person (see Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d at 174-175).
ROMAN, J., dissents, and votes to reverse the judgment, on the law, and remit the matter to the Supreme Court, Rockland County, for a new trial in accordance with the following memorandum:
I respectfully disagree with the majority's conclusion that the trial court properly instructed the jury on the emergency doctrine. As will be discussed, prior to the accident at issue, the driver of the subject vehicle, the defendant Brittany Lahm (hereinafter Brittany), was not faced with a sudden and unexpected circumstance leaving little or no time for thought, deliberation, or consideration. As such, there is no reasonable view of the evidence that Brittany was confronted with a qualifying emergency.
On July 12, 2008, Brittany was operating a vehicle owned by her father, the defendant Phillip Lahm. There were four passengers in the vehicle, including the plaintiff, Jason Pelletier, and Brandon Berman (hereinafter Brandon), who was seated in the rear passenger seat behind the front-seat passenger. Brittany and her four passengers, all 19 years of age, were traveling home following a day at the New Jersey Shore. They had left the beach at 3:30 p.m., and were traveling northbound on the New York State Thruway at the time of the accident. Brittany testified that she had dinner plans scheduled at 7:30 p.m. that evening and "didn't feel like being late."
During the drive on the New York State Thruway, Brandon playfully pulled the strings of Brittany's bikini top. Brittany reacted by taking her hands off the steering wheel for a split second to cover herself. The vehicle began to veer to the right. Brittany grabbed the steering wheel to steer the vehicle back into the lane, but she lost control of the car. The vehicle struck the center guardrail, vaulted over the guardrail, and overturned, coming to rest upside down in the southbound lanes. Brittany estimated that she had been driving on the Thruway for approximately 15-20 minutes before the accident occurred. As a result of the accident, the plaintiff sustained personal injuries and Brandon died.
The plaintiff subsequently commenced this action against the defendants to recover damages for personal injuries. At trial, the court charged the jury on the emergency doctrine. The jury ultimately returned a verdict finding that Brittany was not negligent in the happening of the accident. Following the trial, the court denied the plaintiff's motion pursuant to CPLR 4404(a) to set aside the verdict and for judgment as a matter of law on the issue of liability, or, in the alternative, to set aside the verdict as contrary to the weight of the evidence and for a new trial. This appeal by the plaintiff ensued.
The emergency doctrine "recognizes that when an actor is faced with a sudden and unexpected circumstance which leaves little or no time for thought, deliberation or consideration, or causes the actor to be reasonably so disturbed that the actor must make a speedy decision without weighing alternative courses of conduct, the actor may not be negligent if the actions taken are reasonable and prudent in the emergency context" (Rivera v New York City Tr. Auth., 77 NY2d 322, 327; see Amaro v City of New York, 40 NY2d 30, 36). "A person in such an emergency situation cannot reasonably be held to the same accuracy of judgment or conduct as one who has had full opportunity to reflect, even though it later appears that the actor made the wrong decision'" (Rivera v New York City Tr. Auth., 77 NY2d at 327, quoting Prosser & Keeton, Torts § 33 at 196 [5th ed]). Prior to issuing an emergency instruction to the jury, the court is required "to make the threshold determination that there is some reasonable view of the evidence supporting the occurrence of a qualifying emergency'" (Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d 172, 175, quoting Rivera v New York City Tr. Auth., 77 NY2d at 327). "If, under some reasonable view of the evidence, an actor was confronted by a sudden and unforeseen occurrence not of the actor's own making, then the reasonableness of the conduct in the face of the emergency is for the jury, which should be appropriately instructed" (Rivera v New York City Tr. Auth., 77 NY2d at 327). However, "an emergency instruction is not proper where the situation is neither sudden nor unexpected or could have been reasonably anticipated in light of the surrounding circumstances" (Smith v Perfectaire Co., 270 AD2d 410, 410; see Moore v Bame, 257 AD2d 716; Hardy v Sicuranza, 133 AD2d 138).
The "classic emergency situation" implicating the emergency doctrine involves a vehicle traveling in the opposite direction crossing over into oncoming traffic (Gajjar v Shah, 31 AD3d 377, 377; see e.g. Ferebee v Amaya, 83 AD3d 997; Palma v Garcia,52 AD3d 795, 796). By contrast, the charge has been found inappropriate in cases where the subject accident resulted from an occurrence which the parties had reason to anticipate (see e.g. Lifson v City of Syracuse, 17 NY3d 492, 495 [sun glare at sunset while traveling west]; Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d at 175 [deteriorating weather conditions existing for at least two hours, resulting in icy roadway]).
In the present case, the evidence at trial established that, prior to the accident, Brandon engaged in a course of distracting conduct, including spitting chewing tobacco out the window, opening an umbrella inside the vehicle, leaning halfway out of the window, and using the umbrella to clean the tobacco off the exterior of the vehicle. Brandon, who had been laughing about his actions, then proceeded, from the backseat, to stick his feet over the center console into Brittany's face.
While the source of Brandon's merriment was unknown, Brittany noted it was Brandon's birthday and assumed that he was "on something" that day.
Despite Brandon's conduct, Brittany never attempted to pull the vehicle over, or to slow the vehicle down and, instead, continued to travel on the Thruway at a speed of 65 miles per hour.
Brandon then pulled the bikini string tied around Brittany's neck. As a result, Brittany released the steering wheel with her right hand to hold up her top and yelled at Brandon. Holding onto the steering wheel with her left hand and her bikini top with her right hand, Brittany leaned forward so the front-seat passenger could re-tie the string. As Brittany leaned forward, Brandon pulled the second bikini string on her back. It was at that moment Brittany testified she took both hands off the steering wheel for "a split second" to grab her bikini top. As a result, she lost control of the vehicle.
Viewing Brandon's conduct in totality, the situation was neither sudden nor unexpected, and, in fact, could have been reasonably anticipated in light of the surrounding circumstances. Brittany was aware of Brandon's inappropriate, distracting, and dangerous behavior, yet chose to maintain her speed at 65 miles per hour rather than take appropriate measures to ensure the safe operation of the vehicle. The foregoing does not present a situation envisioned by the emergency doctrine.
Moreover, it cannot be said that Brittany did not have time for "thought, deliberation or consideration," in the face of Brandon's behavior (Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d at 174 [internal quotation marks omitted]). To the contrary, the record reveals that Brittany had a full opportunity to reflect on the ongoing situation, which occurred over a span of approximately 15-20 minutes (cf. Williams v Econ, 221 AD2d 429, 430 [applying the emergency doctrine where the defendant faced "an instantaneous cross-over emergency," and "had only a fraction of a second to react"]). That Brittany had an opportunity to weigh alternative courses of conduct over that period of time was demonstrated by the fact that she took corrective measures in response to Brandon's actions, including yelling at him to get back inside the vehicle, using her electronic controls to roll up Brandon's window, and admonishing him to stop acting like an "idiot" and to stop sticking his feet in her face (cf. Roman v Vargas, 182 AD2d 543, 544 [emergency doctrine applicable where "there were no alternatives available" to the Stephens defendants to avoid the subject automobile accident, and the entire event involved " a question of seconds'"]).
Although the culminating act of pulling the second bikini string perhaps caused Brittany to instinctively remove her hands from the steering wheel to cover her breasts, nonetheless, the conduct was preceded by a series of incidents perpetrated by Brandon, of which Brittany was aware, which similarly interfered with Brittany's ability to safely operate the vehicle (see Carson v De Lorenzo,238 AD2d 790, 791 ["the chain of events leading up to the collision was set in motion by defendant's operation of her vehicle at a speed that was excessive for the prevailing weather and road conditions"]). That Brandon would ultimately commit an act which would cause Brittany to lose control of the vehicle, under the circumstances of this case, cannot be deemed sudden or unexpected (see Lifson v City of Syracuse, 17 NY3d at 495; Caristo v Sanzone, 96 NY2d at 175 ["Given (the defendant's) admitted knowledge of the worsening weather conditions, the presence of ice on the hill cannot be deemed a sudden and unexpected emergency"]; Smith v Perfectaire Co., 270 AD2d at 410 [no qualifying emergency where the defendant driver, whose van struck the plaintiff's car from behind, knew there was ice on the roadways in the area, and therefore, had taken precautions to avoid skidding]).
Therefore, contrary to the Supreme Court's determination, there was no qualifying event justifying the issuance of an instruction on the emergency doctrine.
Accordingly, I would reverse the judgment, on the law, and remit the matter to the Supreme Court, Rockland County, for a new trial (see Smith v Perfectaire Co., 270 AD2d at 410).

Liam Collins: On your bike to all the bad manners and ignorance of rules of the road
Dublin's cyclists have been breaking the rules for decades, says but standards are now at an abysmal level
Since the Dublinbikes scheme came into effect a couple of years ago the standard of cycling in the city has deteriorated to a dangerous level.
Bad and all as cyclists were beforehand there is now shocking and abysmal ignorance of the rules of good behaviour, with cyclists breaking lights, going up one-way streets the wrong way, cycling on the footpath and generally ignoring the rules of the road and good manners.
I should know, I've been cycling in Dublin since the 1980s and I've yet to see a garda actually stop a cyclist committing any of these illegal acts in more than three decades.

What is EAV all about?
For the 600m people in sub-Saharan Africa without access to modern energy sources, under-electrification is not just a nuisance but often quite literally a matter of life and death. However, there have been a number of innovations in recent years that have the potential to be game-changers in Africa, turbo-charging long-term sustainable development through businesses that can deliver triple bottom line outcomes (social, environmental & economic). This is what Energy Access Ventures is about: finding those companies that can exploit secular themes such as increased mobile penetration, the explosion in mobile money and data availability, the internet of things, smart/bi-directional grids, Pay-As-You-Go remote cut-off technology, falling costs for renewable technologies and an improved environment for Power Purchase Agreements in Africa to engender real change on the continent. We see these themes being distilled in to various business models that have what we think are the clear potential to enable such a paradigm shift in the local environment: for example 'XAAS' ('Anything As A Service'), which can transform affordability at the base of the pyramid, or mini-grids which can generate power efficiently and integrate with existing infrastructure. Furthermore, the convergence of previously discrete sectors such as banking, telecoms, media and utilities will likely be a major theme as new companies look to provide fully integrated services to low-income consumers and SMEs, all enabled by the rise in distributed generation, cloud connectivity and analytics and mobile data/mobile money networks.
Of course achieving all this won't be an easy task and it's one that will require many more resources than Energy Access Ventures alone is able to bring to bear. Nevertheless, the success of our plan to substantially increase energy access in sub-Saharan Africa rests as much on our ability to act as an evangelist for the sector and drive increased funds towards the numerous exciting, capital hungry businesses that are developing in our field as on our own investment acumen. (Just looking at the industry statistics $4.3bn was raised across all strategies in Africa according to the AVCA in 2015 compared to $60bn in the US for Venture Capital alone according to PWC, so there is clearly a long way to go, but we like a challenge!).
And let's not forget the impact aspect of all this. Quite apart from the estimated 1-3% per annum in economic growth that the lack of power in Africa causes, there are very real health and environmental reasons to expand energy access in sub-Saharan Africa.
EAV portfolio companies positively impact health and the environment via displacing:
Kerosene for lighting & heating
Eliminating black carbon from kerosene lamps globally can reduce emissions by 240 million tons CO2e per year1—the same as taking 80 coal power plants offline2
Reducing kerosene use can mitigate the widespread risk of burns, accidents, fires as well as inhalation of dangerous particulate matter (e.g. CO, SO2, NOx)
Traditional biomass for cooking
The use of firewood for cooking has been a prime cause of deforestation and environmental degradation in developing countries, very often resulting in loss of biodiversity and disturbance of local ecosystems
Indoor air pollution due to biomass fuel burned in inefficient stoves causes about 600,000 deaths per year in Africa alone3 and 3.3% of the global burden of disease, particularly for women and children4
Diesel Gensets and mini-grids
Eliminating CO2 and black carbon from diesel mini-grids can reduce emissions by 115 million tons of CO2 per year globally
Electricity demand served by diesel gensets in sub-Saharan Africa was c.16 tWh in 20126
Per kWh, small diesel generators create 2x the CO2 emissions of coal power plants7
Diesel exhaust contains more than 40 toxic air contaminants, including many carcinogens, such as benzene, arsenic, and formaldehyde

For no readily apparent reason all window switches and the sunroof switch decide to become inoperative at the same time. Monkey about with the control panel on the driver's armrest a bit & they will work for a bit. Even when the windows and sunroof is inoperative the power mirros still work & they too are located on the armrest panel. My first guess is that the problem is a loose or bad ground somewhere in the door. But I cannot figure out why it affects the sunroof.

When I first starting shooting on somewhat of a regular basis, it was all done with my iPhone 4s and alone. I was living in Paris at the time and would be walking around and see something that would catch my eye and I would quickly capture the moment. The more I would photograph, the more I was determined to improve my skills and learn how to properly use a camera.
I did some research and decided to purchase a Canon 70D just last September. I have used a Canon many years before but only used it in fully automatic mode. I had no real technical background or an understanding of photography whatsoever! I would encounter difficult situations that I didn't know how to perform and decided it was time to get a better grasp on the basics of photography. I enrolled in few beginner courses to educate myself enough to become familiar with my camera and the basic tools necessary to achieve my desired vision.
Marni and I would discuss shooting locations and find the optimal time for lighting. We would get to our location, set up and begin shooting. Occasionally we would glimpse at the other person's camera screen to see what shots they were executing and then proceed to share each others settings. If we liked the other persons shot better than our own, we would adjust our perspective and change our settings. Fortunately for both of us we own the same camera so it becomes a lot easier assisting each other.
It was great being able to bounce ideas off of one another. It was also advantageous to see Marni's images post processing. It is always fascinating to be shooting at the same location, during the same time of day and frequently produce very different finished photos. We would always compare our images after and help choose our favourites. As well as give constructive criticism when necessary. Marni is very good at knowing which settings to have the camera set at depending on the light and subject we were shooting. Whenever I get frustrated or stuck in a situation, Marni is always selfless and sweet enough to offer her assistance. As a matter of fact, it was Marni who suggested the topic for my article this week.
A few months ago I became acquainted with another female photographer by the name of Kally. She was telling me how the photography industry is still male dominated and would love to start shooting with some girls. We decided to meet up one night to photograph during sunset. It was myself, Marni, Kally and another girl by the name of Teresa. Kally often shot with Teresa. I figured that the worst that could happen was we would never see these girls again if we didn't like shooting with them. To Marni and my surprise, Kally and Teresa were using photography lingo we were not at all familiar with and felt completely lost. I felt like a complete amateur. We were shooting at sunset and they were discussing bracketing their shots so that the lights wouldn't blow out and Marni and I looked at each other like they were speaking another language. Kally and Teresa explained what they were doing and Marni and I decided it was too much to absorb at that time.
Marni and I had planned a trip to Niagara Falls, Canada and extended an invitation to the others. They excitedly accepted. We thought it would be great to be able to bounce ideas off one another and make a little girls' getaway out of it. We were planning to shoot at several locations before sunset but the sky was washed out and decided to wait to shoot until the light was better. We ended up splitting up. Marni and Teresa went to shoot macro, which Kally and I have no interest or patience doing. Kally and I went to look for some interesting architecture. We all got along really well and for a group of girls, surprisingly there has never been any drama and never felt like we were in a competitive environment.
We quickly learned that each of us had our own strengths. It works out tremendously since if one of us needs assistance in one area, another person could likely help and vice versa.
Marni has a foundation in post processing as I mentioned earlier. She has an understanding of how to manipulate an image. She has a firm grasp on which lens to use and when which lens allows her to create a mixture of effects. Marni is very versatile with her subjects. She generally doesnt stick to shooting just one genre which allows here the potential to grow and develop much quicker.
Kally stepped into photography coming from a graphic design background. Having a foundation of graphic design allows her to have strong post processing skills and an understanding of the basic principles in composition and perspective. With an advanced understanding of Lightroom and Photoshop, her ability to post process is without a doubt her strong suit. None of the areas I excel in.
Teresa strongest suit is her patience and determination to execute the perfect image she has envisioned. If she doesn't, she has been known to go back to the same location and get the perfect image she visually sought after. Teresa also takes the time to research all the necessary information needed to achieve her goal. She always arrives at the location with a vision and a plan. Similar to Marni, Teresa is versatile in her subjects and is open to try new things. She is very knowledgeable and always eager to learn and be able to approach things with a opened mind.
Lastly, my strength is perspective and creative vision. I can envision a photo in my mind and then execute the shot. I am able to stand in one spot and produce different versions of the same subject. I have an understanding of movement and constantly thinking about the speeds of objects and when and where to capture them whether it be completely still or in motion. I am always looking at the scene ahead and then trying to capture that with my camera.
Although we are shooting at the same locations, we often find that the images we choose to share rather differ from one anothers. Not just the choice of perspective but in the way we each choose to post process our images.
If you compare all our images to each other, you will likely see a pattern in each ones photographs. I feel as I shoot more and more with these girls, I have the desire to want to learn new techniques and continue to grow as a photographer.
I tend to like incorporating some sort of adventure in my shoots and strive to find something different which often poses a problem when you are shooting in the same city day after day. The other girls always have a suggestion or a new idea to try out so it is nice to be able to get out of my comfort zone and experiment with new areas that I wouldn't have thought of.
I would have never anticipated that working in a group would have so many positive attributes. Even more to my surprise, I never thought that I would make such great friends. In just about less than a year I am happy with my progression of shooting only on an iPhone to then shooting on my dslr solely in automatic mode, to where I am today. I owe a large part of my growth to all the wonderful people I have shot with and especially to my old and new friends: Marni, Kally and Teresa who have helped mold me into the photographer I am today. I hope that I have had such a positive influence on their knowledge of photography as they have had on mine.
Happy shooting!
Until next time,
Marni Luftspring – Belavin

Kitty should not be allowed to claw the puppy like that. It can cause an infection. I had a Chihuahua puppy that got an infection from a kitty clawing it.

My experience on GAG has been generally positive. However, I've been a bit curious lately. Has GAG in any way, at one point or another, been LESS THAN helpful to you? And I don't mean complaining about the mods or admin folks. I'm talking about not getting answers, dealing with trolls, etc. Just curious.
Most Helpful Guy
Yes, in the beginning I learned that if you write a long question or answer it will not be read. The sad part is the longest questions are always the ones that are actually tough and the ones that really matter. It would get annoying when I would ask a question that I put a lot of effort into and really needed some advice but would not get any answers, or I would and it'll just be a couple of words, while others ask random short non-important questions and get like 20 detailed answers. Now, I just shorten my questions as much as I possible can and get some great answers. That's the only thing that annoyed me about GAG, except for people asking questions when the answers is completely obvious. For the most part though I love this site and I've learned a lot.20|20|0
I totally agree. I'll see a question and the first couple of lines, but when I go to read the whole thing, there's way too much detail for me to remember and give a good, effective answer for it.

The last few days have been difficult. I have learned that two close friends have been denied entry to Israel. They are not allowed to continue their work in Palestine for the next 5-10 years. They are peace workers who have been denied because the Israel government doesn't want people documenting what is happening in the occupied Palestinian territories.
Today I had just finished playing basketball to get some positive endorphins flowing. After playing I was driving home and the SUV in front of me had a simple bumper sticker that read, "Love Wins."
Caught off guard, I turned the music down to think more clearly. Love does win, that's right. I have to keep on believing that despite all of the poverty, lack of access to health care, and war in the world; love will win.
Thanks be to God, Love wins.

Marisa Noel Brown Gives In
The townhouse belonging to Marisa Noel Brown has officially hit the market. The youngest daughter of disgraced hedge funder Walter Noel (who had $7.5 billion invested with Bernie Madoff), and the wife of Matt Brown (who worked for her father at Fairfield Greenwich), Marisa's been contemplating a sale for quite some time now. But now it's official and 12 East 78th Street has been listed with Stribling for $12 million. Keep in mind, though, that "it's well-known the couple is willing to take much less." [NYO]

One of the standouts for Tudor last year was the small and simple Black Bay 36. For the first time Tudor's key collection shed its dive watch origins in favour of a sleeker, more minimal look. It also lost a sizeable amount of bulk, trimming down to a svelte 36mm, making it ideal for women and suitable for men looking for something different. And while the BB 36 found plenty of fans, some were left wanting a little more. Well, Tudor has been paying attention, and at Baselworld the brand unveiled an upscaled, 41mm version.
Case diameter aside, not a lot has changed. The watch is still dominated by the glossy black dial and wide, polished bezel. The instantly recognisable snowflake hand that is the hallmark of the Black Bay family is in evidence. And ticking away behind the scenes is an ETA-based automatic, rather than one of Tudor's own movements. For me, the dial of the 36mm version feels slightly cramped because of the large, lume-filled applied markers – that's not a concern here. All the visual elements are balanced and in harmony. The other new element is the strap, now offered in a rich tan brown, with contrasting stitching and fitted with a deployant buckle. It's also available on a bracelet, and of course comes with a woven fabric strap (in the same urban camouflage pattern as the 36). This leather strap is more masculine than the leather option on the smaller version, and more versatile than the distressed leathers available on regular Black Bays. Tudor – if you're listening – I'd like to see more straps like this.
There's no doubt that that Black Bay collection is now a fully fledged family, with various looks, sizes and complications on offer. Into this landscape the Black Bay 41 is not only the most accessibly priced option (along with its smaller sibling), it's also the dressiest, most versatile choice. As soon as we saw the 36mm version, we knew there would eventually be a larger option in the offing, and it's turned out to be just as winning. We suspect this one will be popular.
