During an ocean voyage, a Maiken crew sailing on a yacht found themselves traveling through the South pacific. However, during their journey, they began to notice something quite strange.
The crew was nearing the Vava'u Islands in Tonga when they began to notice a strange coloring of the water. Nearing closer, they found that the sea appeared to have turned to stone. Then, in a matter of minutes, the rising land mass appeared to be coming up out of the ocean, "like the Sahara with rolling hills of sand as far as the eye could see," according to Fredrik Fransson, one of the crew members.
However, the crew had not arrived on the ground. On the contrary, it appeared that they had landed on a massive, floating, pumice stone. And while no one else on planet Earth was aware of it yet, merely miles away from them, the ocean was hastily pushing fresh land onto the ocean's surface.
"Often in the South Pacific you have clouds on the horizon, but this time there was one that stood out," Fransson says. "Then we saw a black pillar shooting up into the air, and we understood that it had to be a volcano." Fransson and his shipmate cautiously navigated toward the smoke. Where the chart said there should be an underwater seamount called Home Reef, they found an island, growing one explosion at a time. "It was kind of a smoldering, smoky stuff. It looked like coal, and when there was an eruption, we could see the new material piling up on it," says Fransson.
Scientists reacted intensely when the crew began posting what they had seen online. While it is common knowledge that such events occur, it is very rare that people are able to see them firsthand. According to researchers, the eruption led to the attraction of barnacles, corals, algae and oysters. Within months of the island's birth, some of it had actually washed up on Queensland, Australia, which is located 2,000 miles away.

Teacher : June-July 2011
64 teacher jun e/july 2011 News In brief Australia's greenest teacher Sandi Burt of Bees Creek Primary School south of Darwin is the national winner of the 2011 Green Teacher Awards. Burt won for her unique recycling project. Finalists were: Raquel Spratt from Blake- hurst High School in Sydney's south; Jan Hare from Epping Views Primary School in Melbourne's north; Tracey Sheppard from Queensland Independent College on Queensland's Gold Coast; and Melita Harmer from Ellenbrook Secondary Col- lege on the fringe of Perth's northern sub- urbs. The Green Teacher Awards are held by Clean Up Australia with sponsorship support from Sanyo Oceania. NAPlAN Students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 across the nation sat the National Assessment Pro- gram – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) tests in May. According to Australian Cur- riculum , Assessment and Reporting Author- ity Chairman Professor Barry McGaw, NAPLAN testing is a vital tool to under- stand how Australian students are perform - ing. ' Systematic improvement is best sup- ported by careful measu rement. NAPLAN provides that measu rement and a perspec- tive broader than that available within an individual school,' Professor McGaw said. NAPLAN is not a test students can pre- pare for, because it is not a test of content , McGaw added, because it tests skills in lit- eracy and nu meracy that are developed over time through the school curriculum. 2010 Year 5 numeracy sample question Budget 2011 Prime Minister Julia Gillard returned to edu- cation policy, her happy hunting grou nd , to announce 'pay bonuses for around 25,000 of our best teachers,' days before her Treasurer Wayne Swan in May delivered his fourth Commonwealth Budget. The aim would appear to be to shift attention away from the two big issues facing the Commonwealth government – the carbon tax and the deficit. What does the Budget mean for the edu- cation sector? On the upside, the Budget includes $425 million over the next four years for 'pay bonuses for around 25,000 of our best teachers,' to fund bonus payments for the top 10 per cent of teachers up to 10 per cent of their salary as a one-off bonus based on their performance. (See inset, right.) The Budget also includes $558 million to deliver tailored, quality training places through the National Workforce Devel- opment Fund and 'ambitious' reform of vocational education and traini ng, with $1.75 billion over five years, from 2012-13, on offer to the states and territories through national partnerships. In adult education , the Budget provides $143 million to expand the Language Lit- eracy and Nume racy Program to assist an additional 30,000 job seekers gain the foundation skills necessa ry to participate in training and employment. On the downside, the Budget reduces funding to the Digital Education Revolution (DER) by $132.5 million over four years to $20 million per year. It's understood that savings will be redirected to establishing a digital strategy for teachers. According to Budget papers , the Com- monwealth government will still be able to fund its DER program to ensure a one-to- one ratio of computers to students in Years 9to12bytheendofthisyear. The Budget also postpones the rollout of the Commonwealth government trades training centres program to save $102.8 mil- lion over the next four years, and axes the $80 million Vocational Education Broad- STeVe holDeN looks at what the budget means for the education sector.

As a vaper who hasn't smoked a tobacco cigarette for well over 4 years, the decision this afternoon in the House of Commons to introduce "plain packaging" for cigarettes in the UK from 2016 doesn't really affect me directly. So why does it irritate me so?
Well, I'll explain.
Today on Twitter, Action on Smoking & Health London (@ASH_LDN) have spammed us all day with propaganda about #plainpacks, explaining how they will prevent youngsters taking up the smoking habit, telling us that its what people want and all the usual (pretty much unsubstantiated) guff. Within hours of the "historic vote" as it was called by Cancer Research UK, again via Twitter, British American Tobacco announced their intention to challenge it – because basically it can't really be legal!
So, on top of the enormous costs of implementing this legislation, there will now be a lengthy court case to fight, all done at our (the tax-payers') expense.
And it probably isn't going to make a jot of difference to tobacco sales anyway!
I first tried smoking when I was about 12 years old, and became a regular smoker at 14 (when I got a paper round and could afford to buy cigarettes for the first time). I was fully aware of the risks of smoking due to TV campaigns and warnings, and it didn't deter me at all. In fact, the more that adults banged on about it, the more determined I was to smoke and demonstrate my ability to make my own choices.
Maybe if smoking hadn't been so heavily stigmatised, it wouldn't have been so attractive to me and I wouldn't have bothered, I'm not sure. What I can say is that putting them behind a door behind the shop counter or having these ridiculous plain packs wouldn't have made a jot of difference.
And this leads to my entire problem with this. Whilst the "powers that be" invest huge time and resources in this white elephant, the whole concept of tobacco harm reduction is being largely sidelined or even ignored.
The most effective device to encourage people to cease smoking tobacco cigarettes is NOT plain packs, or licensed Nicotine Replacement Therapies, it is the electronic cigarette. Already we are seeing evidence of reduced tobacco sales credited to the e-cig, and despite lack of backing from the institutions and we have reached a stage where e-cigs are becoming a tangible threat to tobacco sales.
It's way past time that public health bodies and state sponsored charities started directing their resources to questioning the forthcoming, draconian regulation of electronic cigarettes rather than wasting time and effort on flagship projects that effectively seek an "acceptable" way to keep cigarettes on the market.
These bodies need to get their priorities straightened out and rethink their obsessive, tobacco company hating policies, which are pursued at the expense of the public they are supposed to be helping.

Wollongong Catholic teacher to plead guilty to possessing child abuse material
A Catholic high school teacher has entered a guilty plea in Wollongong Local Court to a charge of possessing child abuse material.
32 year old Peter Wouters was arrested following a police investigation earlier this month.
Last week he resigned from his position as a music teacher at St Mary Star of the Sea College.
The matter has been referred to the director of public prosecutions and will return to court next week.
Mr Wouters' lawyer Aaron Kernaghan says his client is admitting his guilt at the earliest opportunity so he can begin rehabilitation.
"My client has entered a plea of guilty today so that he can admit to what he considers is a grave wrong doing so that he can commence a process of rehabilitation, addressing the things in his life that have led him to such a wrongful state, which he freely admits and accepts responsibility for," he said.
In a statement the school says additional counselling has been made available to students.
Bishop Peter Ingham says he's saddened by the charge against Mr Wouters, but added the school is operated by Good Samaritan Education and not the Wollongong Catholic Education Office.

Euro zone ends deflation as price change rises to zero
The euro zone ended four months of deflation in April with consumer prices unchanged from year-ago levels, indicating the risk of persistent price declines is abating.
Consumer prices in the 19 countries that share the euro were unchanged in April from a year earlier, as expected, after a 0.1 percent decline in March, the European Union's statistics office Eurostat estimated.
The bottoming out of price declines is likely to be welcome news for the European Central Bank, which wants to keep inflation below, but close to 2 percent over the medium term. It started printing money in March to inject more cash into the economy and ward off concerns of persistently falling prices, or deflation.
Economists have said inflation should become clearly positive in the second half of 2015 as energy becomes less of a drag given that oil prices started falling sharply from June last year.
Indeed some say the market may start questioning whether the ECB will need to carry out quantitative easing all the way through to September 2016.
As in previous months, the weakness of prices was mainly driven by the declining cost of energy, which was 5.8 percent cheaper in April than a year earlier.
Core inflation, which excludes volatile energy and unprocessed food costs, was unchanged at 0.6 percent year-on-year.
Eurostat's flash estimate for the month does not include a monthly calculation.
In another slightly positive sign for the euro zone economy, Eurostat said euro zone unemployment fell marginally in March by 36,000 to 18.105 million people.
However, this was not enough to change the unemployment rate from the 11.3 percent of February. Economists had been expecting the rate to drop to a new three-year low of 11.2 percent.

Vision Board Experiment : Interesting Spate of Events
By Ellesse
It's been almost 2 months since I've started my Vision Board Experiment and I'm sure most of you're pretty excited to know my progress
Overall, the entire experience with the Vision Board was pretty good considering that I've only used it for 2 months. It's very likely that I'll continue to use it up to a time when it's appropriate for me to stop. And when that happens, I'll definitely post it on Goal Setting College.
I hope that this little experiment will also prompt you to kick start your own Vision Board trial too. It's fun reading about other people's experience but nothing beats going through it yourself!
Without further ado, here's my first update.
Health & Fitness
During the initial weeks of reviewing my Vision Board, frankly speaking I really felt a rejuvenated interest in my health and personal well being. As you might already be aware, I used to play squash every other week and go to the gym whenever I was free but somehow or rather, the enthusiasm tapered off as I buried myself in work. The Vision Board reminded me of the fact that I was totally out of rhythm with myself.
"So, you went back to squash and gym again?"
If that's what you're thinking right now, the answer is no.
I did something that I've always been planning to, but never had a reason substantial enough for. I quit my job as an implementation consultant!
I couldn't say whether the decision was a consequence of reviewing the Vision Board but that decision had definitely helped in reducing the frequency of my migraines, which were likely a result of occupational stress. Forking out more time to work out the stress would have helped, though it was tantamount to scratching the surface of the problem as the root cause was actually my poor work life balance.
With the flexibility in my new founded occupation, which I'll elaborate further under the Career Development section, I've started to go for morning jogs at least once a week. Occasionally, I'll make a trip to the gym as well. Though this routine has lapsed for a month due to some family commitments, I'm quite confident that I'll pick it up again in no time.
In addition, my sleeping and waking hours are also pretty regular too, though there are times that I go off to bed at 1am. Despite that, I'll still manage to wake up at about 7 to 9am, even on weekends!
All in all, I'm quite happy with the developments in my health and fitness sector. I'm even more impressed with the fact that all this is made possible with only one strong decision that I've made. By deciding to quit my job.
Living Environment
Nothing much happened in this area. I'm still staying at my humble abode
One thing to note however, is that while evaluating my personal finances, I'm starting to factor in considerations of "What if I purchase this apartment". Questions like "How much are similar apartments fetching?", "Do I have enough money to place the down payment?" pop into my mind every now and then. And as I keep asking myself such questions, subconsciously I'll find myself taking a closer look at property launch advertisements whenever I read the newspapers, for the answers.
Though none of these have actually resulted in any significant action such as walking into a showroom and placing an order for a unit, it's very likely that the process of reviewing the Vision Board has already embedded subtle thoughts into my subconscious, encouraging me to take baby steps towards my dream of owning my own place.
The steps are small but are definitely concrete.
Social Activeness
I did a thing I thought I would never do.
I actually took the effort of recording my friends' birthday dates into Google Calendar for it to send me mobile text reminders every year 2 days before their birthdays, so that I could write each friend a personal birthday blessing when their turn come!
What made me do that?
A couple of close friends whom I've been neglecting over the past year didn't give me their birthday blessings at all (unlike what they've done in the previous years) this May and made me realize how much I had taken them for granted.
In a way, the Google Calendar project is a sign of my repentance for the "past misdeeds", so that every friend of mine will receive a warm birthday wish from me every year, regardless how insignificant it may be to them. Pretty unlike of me, ha ha.
These months were also filled up with social activities. I caught up with ex-colleagues and was initiated lunch or dinner. I gathered friends to attend alumni events organized by my University. Incidentally, I was also roped in to coordinate a farewell cum birthday celebration for a good friend who was relocating to another country.
"What about your romance? Any significant improvement?"
Ha ha, I know you're waiting for this!
Though I've not met Mr. Ideal Capricorn yet, interestingly there were indeed more setups and romantic encounters than the usual. A friend set me up with her boyfriend's good pal. And, I ran into this Mr. Cancer guy at a seminar who had been calling or text messaging me ever since. A common guy friend I met at my friend's birthday celebration appeared quite "nice" to me, too.
Though there wasn't any chemistry with these men and none of them were Capricorns, I couldn't help linking those spate of events to the Vision Board that unknowingly, my intentions were starting to manifest, though it still wasn't "there" yet.
Career Development
Way before I constructed my Vision Board, I was already thinking of a different career pursuit. The only difference was, this time, I made it concrete and finally decide on another career switch. I realized that I didn't do so earlier not because I was afraid of taking risks, but rather because I hadn't found a business model that fitted my requirements then.
Colleagues and friends were bewildered at my decision. After all, I was doing quite well as an implementation consultant, leading a small team of analysts and traveling around the region on business. They asked me about my plans but all I told them was, I would be starting my own business.
"So, is there really a business?"
In fact, you're looking at it right now.
I'm going into the business of writing. Almost a month ago, I've been writing full time for Goal Setting College. This is no longer a part-time jig for me. This is my career.
I know a lot of gurus would recommend that one go professional only after they've reached a certain readership or significant income level. Frankly speaking, I'm not there yet. Not even 1% of it. However, that's secondary to me because deep inside my heart, I know I'm not in this for the fame nor entirely for the money.
I want to do this so that I can have more time to devote to the success of Goal Setting College and make every article a value contribution to you, my readers. I also want to do this for myself and my family, so that I can use the time flexibility to maintain a quality lifestyle, doing the things I've yearned to do.
If you've been a loyal reader of Goal Setting College, let me thank you once again from the bottom of my heart for making this dream of mine possible!
Financial Wealth
Nope, I didn't become the next Warren Buffet.
But I did perform a personal financial health check by reviewing my insurance coverage, emergency funds adequacy, my current assets and liabilities status. In the process, I topped up on some fresh hospitalization insurance and almost finished reading a book on value stocks picking.
Though the progress here is insignificant as compared to the other sections, I'm still happy to have caught up with a long overdue financial health check, which may be further delayed if not for my daily reminder on the Vision Board.

Sarasota police arrested a 19-year-old suspect in two armed robberies after a short chase at roughly 5:30 p.m. Sunday, June 30, near the intersection of 10th Street and Lemon Avenue, according to a news release.
Officer Tammy Featherstone recognized John Coates, a homeless man, from surveillance footage captured during the robbery of a 7-Eleven that happened at approximately 2:30 a.m. the same day. Coates attempted to elude capture in the Salvation Army on 10th Street, threw a chair at Featherstone and was captured by officers after escaping on foot.
Police discovered Coates, who is also a suspect in the June 14 robbery of a smoke shop, in possession of a vial containing seven pieces of crack cocaine. Coates is charged with two counts of armed robbery, resisting arrest, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of crack cocaine.

It was hard to read Brad Lidge when we talked to him this afternoon. On one hand, he seemed relieved that a relatively minor surgery would correct the injury he suffered yesterday during practice. On the other, he seemed disappointed that he'll miss three to six weeks recovering, which puts his status for opening day in jeopardy.
"I'm upset that it happened, but obviously, potentially it could have been worse and I'm happy to see there was no big damage done and that I'll be able to get back in there fairly quick," Lidge said. "But of course you don't want something like this to have to happen. Better now than during the season."
Lidge said he had two options: under go a partial miniscectomy, a procedure in which part of the miniscus is actually removed. The other was to rest the knee for two to three weeks before attempting to pitch again.
An MRI revealed small tears on the medial, or inner, part of his knee. Rather than repair the cartilage, Dr. Michael Ciccotti will actually remove it.
The three-to-six week timetable that Phillies trainer Scott Sheridan gave is for a full recovery, meaning Lidge could be back before the end of spring training. He can begin playing catch after a week.
"I actually felt like I was a little ahead of where I would normally be in spring training at this same time before this happened, so I can kind of fall back on that, but I'll certainly need a few times throwing to guys which I'm sure I'll probably get in at the end of the spring training," Lidge said. "Hopefully I can get ready quick and obviously hitters will tell us that as well as how I'm feeling."

As expected, former Alter High School star Malik Zaire was granted release from his scholarship at Notre Dame according to a report from ESPN.
The left-handed quarterback, who is on pace to graduate in December, told ESPN he is not allowed to transfer to any of the teams on the Fighting Irish's 2017 schedule with the exception of North Carolina.
That means Miami University and Miami (Fla.), Michigan State, Temple, Georgia, Boston College, USC, N.C. State, Wake Forest, Navy and Stanford are out.
As a graduate transfer, Zaire won't have to sit out a year before becoming eligible.
That is fortunate for the fourth-year collegian, who redshirted at Notre Dame in 2013 and missed most of last season with a broken ankle.
Coach Brian Kelly said he planned to play both Zaire and Deshone Kizer in 2016, but that fell by the wayside after Kizer got off to a hot start to the season and Zaire struggled in limited opportunities.
Zaire ultimately saw action in eight games in 2016, running for 34 yards and completing 11 of 23 passes for 122 yards and a touchdown.
Kelly's (or school administrators') decision to limit Zaire's transfer choices, which have been reported to include MSU, Florida, Pitt and Wisconsin, could renew discussions about whether or not schools and/or coaches should hold such power over athletes who intend to transfer.

More recommended reading from the literary journals
By MICHAEL CAINES
A word about literary magazines on this blog is overdue – sorry, we've been busy thinking about Sarah Moss, Soviet picture books and Chet Baker. What fine distractions are to be found in the summer crop of journals new and old, famous and fresh?
The freshest first, and a full disclosure: Hotel is a "magazine for new approaches to fiction, non-fiction and poetry" that is one issue old; and I had the pleasure of attending the launch for that issue, on the night after the EU referendum, because a former TLS editor contributed to it. Let us not dwell on Will Eaves unnecessarily. Instead, I can only say that Hotel's debut offers some "Notes on the Pink Hotel", by Jess Cotton, on pink paper ("I think of Rimbaud, far from his soft city rain . . ."), a couple of poems by Jane Yeh ("The maid thinks of cream cakes and breaking rules") and an excellent essay by Tyler Malone, "Sometimes He Left Messages in the Books", about the fate of David Markson's extensively marked-up library.
Markson's reputation stood sufficiently low at the time of his death in 2010 for the Strand Bookstore in New York to scatter his books along their 18 miles of shelves in the ordinary way, rather than keep them together. Every day for six months, Malone spent a few hours hunting around for them, and helping other enthusiasts find them, too – not an absolutely straightforward matter when The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas is "filed under T for Toklas instead of S for Stein", and books are (understandably) taking months to emerge from storeroom to open shelf. Yet "it is not just a delight to read Markson reading", Malone argues, referring to the marginal comments Markson made, the underlinings that led directly to passages in his books, "but it is truly indispensable to any study of the man and his work".
Online, meanwhile, the seventh edition of Prac Crit has appeared. This is a triannual "journal of poetry and criticism" that specializes in looking at contemporary poetry "up close" – it's an invaluable approach, I think, not least for anybody for whom the words "contemporary poetry" brim with menace.
Here are, for example, poems by Matthew Welton ("Think of it as the rubber ball we've hidden / in the fruit bowl . . .") and Katrina Porteous ("Imagine it a ruin . . .") that come with parallel critical responses (in these respective cases, an interview by Alex MacDonald and an essay by Jenny Holden). You keep the poem in sight in the left-hand half of the screen while scrolling through the prose on the right ("When we met by the stone lions in Market Square, Matthew was concerned with finding us a pub to talk in"). Kiki Petrosino, meanwhile, walks you through one of her own poems, "Scarlet", via thirteen footnoted stepping stones. Although maybe my metaphor's wrong here: it's more a case of taking a tour around the roots of a tree, discovering that one lies in childhood illness, another in the Super Mario Brothers video game, a third in a preference for the ampersand. "I prefer it for its visual dynamism; an ampersand looks both energetic & ornamental to me, like jewelry made from typewriter keys, spoons, or the innards of watches."
These are but striplings, though. Congratulations are due to Slightly Foxed: The real reader's quarterly – who is this real reader, I wonder, and what has she done with all the others? – for publishing its fiftieth issue this summer. Pleasures here include Laura Freeman's piece on Elizabeth David's elopement, which unexpectedly turned her from an actress into a cookery writer, and Richard Mabey's homage to the "swashbuckling" Round the World in Eighty Dishes by Lesley Blanch. There is also Michael Holroyd's warm appraisal of Dan Rhodes, which is surely destined to be excerpted for publication on the back of a paperback some time soon:
". . . his books would appeal, I believe, to many readers. But he avoids journalism, does not belong to any literary groups or contemporary school of writing and is very much an individual novelist. He neither pursues fame nor patronizes his readers. What he believes is what you get: sensitivity, humour, sadness and devastating shock. Sometimes I have been so saddened, so shocked, that I have stopped reading and put the book aside. But before long I am compelled to pick it up again and read on. And what I have read has found a place in my imagination."
What lies beyond fifty issues? Well, Granta recently reached no. 136 (with the theme "Legacies of Love") and Ambit hit no. 224. Not to get carried away, however, I'll close with a solemn nod to the Dublin Review (63 not out). Here, amid the contributions with eye-catching titles such as "The transhumance" and "Uncle uncle uncle uncle uncle", is Rob Doyle's "To the Point of Death", the record of an intellectual relationship. That's the dry way of putting it. Doyle writes about losing himself in "the overpowering, life-justifying rapture" of clubs and drugs, while taking philosophical succour from the works of Georges Bataille. In Paris (not the City of Lights but the "City of Condoms") Doyle makes a Bataille pilgrimage, heading for the Rue de Rennes, near Montparnasse, where the great man lived for a formative period of his life. Only later, as Doyle turns thirty-three, he realizes that he had felt older when he was younger, and Bataille had been the guide to see him through that gloomy period of his life. "If philosophers were musical sub-genres, then Bataille was death metal – and death metal was insufferable, its devotees a gang of dreary bastards." What fun it is, being in on this gradual process, without having to go through it yourself.

Melbourne racegoers will miss the chance of seeing star three year old Pierro race with Gai Waterhouse deciding to concentrate on a Sydney Autumn Carnivalcampaign.
Last season's champion two year old Pierro had been nominated for the Group 1 $750,000 Australian Guineas (1600m) at Flemington on March 2 for the three year olds and the Group 1 $1m Lexus Newmarket Handicap (1200m) at Flemington the following week.
Pierro trialled brilliantly last week at Rosehill and Waterhouse will give the Lonhro colt another solid hit-out in a 1200m barrier trial at Warwick Farm on Friday to prepare him for his Autumn debut in the Group 2 $200,000 Hobartville Stakes (1400m) at Rosehill on March 2.
"I will trial him again on Friday to get him fully fit and he will be right to start off in the Hobartville," Waterhouse said.
Waterhouse had been toying with the idea of returning to Melbourne to start the Autumn but owner Greg Kolivos convinced the great trainer to keep his three year old in Sydney.
"Greg and I talked long and hard over the weekend about our options with Pierro and Greg said he would like for the colt to stay in Sydney so that is what we will do," Waterhouse said.
A rematch with Caulfield Guineas victor All Too Hard in Melbourne is now off the agenda but the two star colts could clash again in Sydney with both being nominated for the Group 1 $2m BMW Doncaster Mile (1600m) at Randwick on April 20.
Pierro is undefeated in Sydney from seven starts which includes the two year old Triple Crown of the Golden Slipper, Sires Produce Stakes and the Champagne Stakes during last year's Sydney Autumn Carnival.
Pierro had two victories over All Too Hard in Sydney, once in the Autumn as two year olds in the Group 1 $500,000 Inglis Sires Produce Stakes (1400m) at Randwick on April 14 as well as a win in the early part of the Spring in the Group 3 $125,000 The Run To The Rose (1200m) at Rosehill on September 1.
But All Too Hard had the better of Pierro in Melbourne in the Spring, relegating him to second for the first time in the Group 1 $1m BECK Caulfield Guineas (1600m) at Caulfield on October 13 and then beat him home in the Group 1 $3m Sportingbet Cox Plate (2040m) at Moonee Valley on October 27 when the two colts ran second and third to Ocean Park.
Waterhouse's stable rider Nash Rawiller has been on the sidelines since mid December because of a broken ankle but is due to resume riding next week at Wyong and will be fully fit to partner his favourite three year old in the Hobartville Stakes on March 2.
While he has been on the sideline Rawiller has kept a close eye on the progress of Pierro as well as Waterhouse's multiple Group 1 winning mare More Joyous, who is also due to return for the Autumn, and has been happy with what he has seen.
"I couldn't be happier with them," Rawiller said.
"They are both doing really well around the stables and look terrific.
"They've come through their trials in good order and it should be really good times ahead."

Lambert ten Kate
|Lambert ten Kate
|23 January 1674
|14 December 1731
(aged 57)
|Cause of death
|A lingering illness
|Not married
Lambert ten Kate (23 January 1674 – 14 December 1731) was a Dutch linguist. His specialization was in comparative historical linguistics. He was also a well known art collector.
Early life[edit]
Ten Kate was born in Amsterdam to Mennonite parents.[1] He studied at the Haarlem Collegium Physicum, and was a pupil of Adriaan Verwer.[2]
Early in his career, ten Kate was a merchant, as partner with his father, Herman ten Kate (1644-1706). The ten Kates engaged in the business of trading in corns, though it was not a preference for the younger man. He eventually left the family business, giving his attention to linguistics, especially, historical-comparative work, etymology, methodology, and the standard language.[3] An early phonetician,[4] he wrote linguistic and theological treatises on Dutch and other Germanic languages. His first published work on linguistics was at the instigation of Verwer. In his Aenleiding tot de kennisse van het verhevene deel der Nederduitsche sprake (1723), he made scientific comparisons of older language stages. By observation of the written and spoken language of his own time, he developed linguistic rules to detect and capture language changes. As his publications were all in his native Dutch language and not in Latin, he was not known internationally.[1] His notable work, Geméénschap tussen de Gottische spraeke en de Nederduytsche ('Affinities and Similarities between the Dutch and Gothic Languages) was published anonymously. Thirteen years later, his magnum opus publication was a two-volume Aenleiding tot de kennisse van het verhevene deel der Nederduitsche sprake ('Introduction to the knowledge of the most important part of the Dutch language').[5] He died of a lingering illness in Amsterdam in 1731,[1] and was buried in the Noorderkerk.[2]
His major publications are the following.[3]
- AJ van der Aa, Biographical dictionary of the Netherlands. Part 10 (1862)
- F. Jos. van den Branden and JG Frederiks, Biographical dictionary of the northern and southern Dutch Literature (1888-1891)
- PJ Blok and PC Molhuysen, New Netherland biographical dictionary. Part 5 (1921)
- K. at Avenue Literary dictionary for North and South (1952)
- Wim van Anrooij, Ingrid Biesheuvel, Karina van Dalen-Oskam and Jan Noordegraaf, and Bio-bibliographical dictionary of neerlandistiek (2004 - ...)

Letter by Knight et al Regarding Article, "Validation of In Vivo Magnetic Resonance Imaging Blood–Brain Barrier Permeability Measurements by Comparison With Gold Standard Histology"
To the Editor:
We read with great interest the recent paper by Hoffmann et al1 on the validation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements of blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. The authors reported that they measured changes in BBB permeability in rodent models of focal cerebral ischemia using MRI methods in conjunction with a Gd-based MRI contrast agent; they then validated these measures by comparing them with Cresyl violet histology and Evans Blue extravasation. The MRI-based estimates of vascular leakage were obtained using the Patlak graphical method to calculate the blood-to-brain transfer constant (Ki).
In recent years, there has been a great deal of interest in the development of noninvasive imaging techniques capable of accurately measuring changes in acute BBB permeability after stroke to predict probability of hemorrhagic transformation. However, the authors appear to be unaware of a sizable body of work in this field that used MRI for such investigations; they only cite manuscripts that used computed tomography techniques in conjunction with Patlak plot methodology to estimate BBB permeability. We would like to bring to the authors' attention several such studies, at least some of which deserved citations in their publication.
Employing an almost identical animal model as did the authors, Knight et al2 demonstrated using MRI and gold standard hematoxylin and eosin histology that regions with Gd-contrast media (Omniscan, a clinical magnetic resonance contrast agent) enhancement showed hemorrhagic transformation at 24 hours. The use of Patlak methods to estimate BBB permeability in brain tumors using MRI was first described by Kenney et al.3 In this study, the influx rate values obtained were confirmed by comparing them with radiotracer values from another set of experiments. This was later improved on by Ewing et al,4 who validated the MRI-Patlak plots via gold-standard radiotracer values obtained using quantitative autoradiography from the same experiments. They also showed the utility of using the sagittal sinus to estimate arterial input function; this was performed by validating the veracity of changes in sagittal sinus values by comparing them with concurrent arterial blood samples.4 Several later publications have validated the accuracy of the Patlak plot-based estimates of BBB permeability by direct comparison with similar measures obtained using radiolabeled- and fluorescent-tracers in the same animals. Furthermore, application of MRI-Patlak plot technique in animal models of brain tumor to measure the changes in vascular function and evaluate putative treatments has also been confirmed. Because of the restriction on the number of references in this type of publication, all these studies cannot be cited here. However, it should be noted that the MRI-Patlak plot technique has also been successfully employed by Taheri et al5 in humans to evaluate cerebrovascular diseases.
Given the amount of peer-reviewed, published past work in developing and using MRI-Patlak plot and gold-standard quantitative autoradiography and histology techniques to evaluate BBB, we feel acknowledging that fact would have added greatly to the discussion and conclusions of the work by Hoffmann et al1 Even unintended oversights of this nature are not without consequence to those whose previous work goes unrecognized; this constitutes an error in scholarship.

laulau's recipe
- Active Time
- 30 minutes
- Total Time
- 6 hours
- 1 head napa cabbage
- 3-6 handful red tower chili pepper
- 6 pieces ginger nug
- 5-6 stalks green onion
- 7 cloves garlic
- 1-2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 bunch carrots (optional)
- 1 bunch daikon (optional
- chop up a chinese or if not available napa cabbage into largish bite size pieces. layer pieces in a big bowl sprinkling generous amounts of salt and water to facilitate osmosis. rotate, drain, add more salt/water for at least 5 hours though if you're ok with crunchier cabbage which will release water in the jar you can wait less hours but the water dilutes the flavors a little.
- drain, chop up ginger, scallions, garlic and add
- if you have/like daikon and carrots chop up daikon to small pieces and shred a little carrot and add
- add sugar 1-2 tbs and chili to taste, i like it spicy so i add about 6 tbs of chili
- mix it all up and jar it. i like it fresh, best after a day or so, after too many days in fridge will start to sour so then it's good for soups/stews

Jeremy took the win—the last of this season for him—in Tokyo last weekend in Odaiba in front of 15,000 fans.
The field was small, but the competition was fierce, especially from the Japanese elite riders. Hikaru Kosaka put in a good chase, but ultimately took second to Jeremy, while Yu Takenouchi took third and Belgian Ben Berden took fourth place. The race is one of Jeremy's favorite of the year, and he has a special affection for the sandy course that winds around near a lake, as well as the city itself.

Omaha Craft Brewery Tour
Monica McFarland: Writer
Logan Bartels: Designer
Shelton Crouch: Interative Art Direction/UX
Chris Johnson: Senior Designer/UI
Project Description: Omaha is making a name for itself in the craft beer scene. To showcase our city and its award-winning beer, the Omaha Convention and Visitors Bureau created a tour of eight local breweries. To promote the tour, we designed materials that highlight the artisan feel and attention-to-detail that craft beer drinkers look for in their ales. After signing up for the tour, the Craft Beer Explorer's Journal introduces him to each brewery on the tour and includes a coupon for a free beer at each stop. Participants can use the journal to jot down notes and rate the beers they have tasted on the tour, as well as stamp the journal at each location to later redeem a free Omaha Craft Beer pint glass once the tour is complete. A mobile app helps out-of-town visitors easily navigate to each brewery and share their experience on social media.

Travel toys for girls and boys
With the long school holidays just around the corner, parents everywhere are starting to think about how to keep the kids entertained for the duration. For most children and families, the highlight of the summer break will be their family holiday; be that a fortnight in the sun, a camping holiday, a long weekend away, or even a staycation. Wherever you're going, packing enough toys to keep the kids happy, whilst not taking up too much of your precious baggage allowance can be a chore. We visited Giddy Goat Toys in Didsbury to check out their favourite travel toys for this summer.
Brand new this year are Pilloboos. Pilloboos are cuddly toys with long arms which hug you back, something that can be a real comfort for little ones away from the familiarity of their own home. They can also help support little ones' necks when they nod off during long journeys. These cuddly Pilloboos are available in a range of squishy, comforting creatures, including lion, leopard, panda and monkey and cost £25 for one huggable friend to keep you company on your travels.
Keeping little ones occupied for hours in the car, or in the airport can be a constant battle. Giddy Goat Toys have a selection of hand luggage friendly games to entertain all the family, including favourites like Uno and Top Trumps, and the modern classic – Dobble, as well as the aptly titled "Are We There Yet?" card game.
Activity and Colouring Books are a travel essential and Giddy Goat Toys stock everything from colouring books for toddlers, activity books for Princess or Paw Patrol fans, right up to adult colouring books for mum, and they have an extensive selection of colouring pens and pencils to take away too. For even more compact fun, Galt Water Magic is a simple, mess-free way to keep kids occupied. The line-drawn picture boards are ready to be coloured in using the special water pen which fade as they dry ready to be used again and again and again.
For big fun in a small package, the Farm and Princess Magnets are great for travel. The tins contain two backgrounds and a great selection of farm or princess themed magnets for kids to enact imaginative scenes with. They're ideal for travel, cost just £5.99 and it's almost impossible to lose a magnet because it's stuck to the tin. These are always popular!
For little builders, you can't get any better than a Playmobil Carry Case. These are perfectly designed for travel and trips out. Each carry case contains everything you need to have a Playmobil Pirate battle, run a Playmobil Pony Club, learn lessons in the Playmobil School or arrest some bad guys with Playmobil Police. Priced at just £11.99, these Playmobil Carry Cases are a holiday must have!
Giddy Goat Toys have so much in store to keep the kids occupied over the long summer holidays. Pop in and speak to the always friendly and helpful Giddy Goat Girls for advice, or visit their new website at www.giddygoattoys.co.uk and shop online.

Chinese radical show – "rain" radical (31)
Posted by Grace Feng on April 16, 2012
In this series you'll meet Chinese radicals that frequently appear in Chinese characters. To make it simple for you to memorize, I'll just simply make a beautiful card with the radical on it's left, and one English word to explain what it symbolize on the right.
In Chinese, radical is called 部首 bù shǒu or 偏旁 piān páng. Today we'll learn the radical that is related to "rain, or other weather symbols": 雨 yǔ – 雨
This radical is placed on the top of a character. Most characters that have this radical are related to rain, or other weather symbols. The following are a few examples: 雪 xuě (snow), 霜 shuāng (frost), 雾 wù (fog), 雷 léi (thunder) etc.

The exact number of movies ever made is not known. Not all the countries have statistics when it comes to the number of movies made in a certain state. We can only approximate. According to IMDb Database Statistics, between 1880 and 2020, 2702243 movies have been made and are obviously going to be made. This number contains TV series, documentaries, video shots, TV series special, TV miniseries, video documentaries. Needless to say, here is also some genre information: drama, comedy, short, documentary, talk show, family, animation, romance, crime, action.

If your house is under 10 yrs old, do you need an architectural survey to sell it, if it has been for sale before the home reports come in?
If you are selling a house that has been on the market for 3yrs, do you need to have an architectural survey on it if the house is 9 yrs old?
Asked on Jan 17 2010, Selling in Orkney | Report content
Answers (1)
NO. Assuming I am not missing something in your question, there is no need for any property to get a survey prior to selling.Home Condition Reports were made a voluntary part of the HIP and very few people get one because of the additional cost and the fact your buyer will still have to get a survey themselves. If your house came on prior to the Home Information Packs then you should by now have had an Energy Report done, assuming you have remained on the market without a break. Your agent should be able to advise your current obligations as a vendor. If you have had a break in marketing and you are now coming back to the market then you will need a Home Information Pack, but just dont pay extra for one with a Condition Report in (its not worth it) Hope this helps.Answered on Jan 17 2010, Report content

OMAHA, Neb. - Just about everything came easily for the Texas Longhorns last season - until Cal State Fullerton came along and swept them in the national finals.

This year, the Longhorns believe their bumpy road to Omaha has them better prepared for the championship round of the College World Series.
The Longhorns (54-16) open the best-of-three championship series tonight against seventh-seeded Florida (48-21), the first meeting ever between these national powers.
The unseeded Longhorns are playing for the championship for the third time in four years. As the No. 1 seed last year, they rolled through regionals and super regionals. At the CWS, they beat Arkansas 13-2 and Georgia 9-3 and 7-6, before losing 6-4 and 3-2 to Fullerton.
"I was surprised in the championship series that we showed our nerves," Texas coach Augie Garrido said. "We'll see whether that happens again."
This year Texas lost 9-2 to Arkansas on its home field in the regionals, then had to win three straight elimination games. The Longhorns lost their super regional opener to Ole Miss before winning two straight to reach the College World Series for the fourth straight year.
Once the Longhorns arrived at Rosenblatt Stadium, they beat Baylor twice to avenge four losses to the Bears this season, and then shut out top-seeded Tulane.
"This year the postseason couldn't have been further from last year," Texas shortstop Seth Johnston said. "The difference is this year's team has had to fight through a lot more ups and downs. If we're able to use that experience and use what we learned from those games we lost, we're going to be a much stronger team because of it."
The SEC champion Gators have had their hard times this season, too, losing seven of nine games from April 29 to May 11. But they won their regional in three games and swept Florida State in the super regionals to earn a chance at their first national title.
"This whole year has been about persevering," Florida center fielder Jeff Corsaletti said. "A lot of people doubted us, and a lot of people in the nation didn't think we'd be here today. We're playing our best baseball right now."
The Gators beat Tennessee and Nebraska in their first two College World Series games, lost to Arizona State 6-1 on Wednesday and then advanced to the championship series with a 6-3 victory over the Sun Devils on Thursday.

It was revealed yesterday (to I'm sure the HUGE disappointment of Amy Aydian Dowling and her trans female supporters who mobilized for her widespread vote) that firefighter and paramedic Tim Boniface gained the Final Men's Well being Guy contest.
The U.S. portion of this survey was conducted on-line by Harris Poll on behalf of Chattem, Inc. the U.S. shopper healthcare division of Sanofi, in partnership with the Males's Well being Network, a non-revenue organization that advocates for men's well being from August 31 to September 6, 2016 among 2,031 U.S adult women and men aged 18 or older, together with 832 men. Data are weighted where vital by gender, age, race/ethnicity, region, training, and income. Go to for extra data.
I feel that Yoga: The Iyengar Manner is more accessible to the brand new scholar than Mild on Yoga, which is why I checklist it first. It consists of about a hundred postures with step-by-step instructions on easy methods to do the poses, and accompanied by detailed, stunning images. The poses shown are inspiring and exquisitely executed! Directions embrace modifications, together with the use of props to securely work toward the full poses. Postures are rated for their issue level, from one diamond for straightforward, to 4 diamonds for very troublesome.
Psychological well being is certainly a rising discussion in society at present. I'm certain we've got all had worries that we just wish would go away our heads. And I do not suppose there may be any larger feeling then placing in the earphones blaring some music and operating. Whether it is you might be combating anxiety melancholy financial difficulties preventing with associates or household. Train can take you away from all of that for some time and be an awesome escape from actuality.
The sweetness with this exercise is that it is fun whilst at the same time extraordinarily challenging; you may pit yourself against yourself and/or others and you can apply the training template to every exercise you can consider, so the flexibility of it's unimaginable. Just like the sound of it to this point? Allow us to contemplate what is predicted of you throughout this exercise.

"In the Baron's Study," an excerpt from Death In Bagheria
Bagheria, Sicily, March 1870
"The baron was showing me his new steamer." Serafina pointed to the telescope on its stand in front of the window. "You can see it through the telescope if you like."
Rosa shook her head, dismissing the offer with a wave of her hand.
He smiled at the madam. "In the harbor now, being loaded with supplies."
"It sails when?" Rosa asked.
"Late today." He paced before them. "We hope to make North America in ten days, not a record, but respectable, especially for this time of year—early for steaming into northern waters."
"Do you carry passengers?"
He nodded. "A few. There's room for over two hundred men, women, and children, most of them in steerage, but these days, our profit is from carrying cargo, not people; now we ship citrus to New York and Boston, perhaps New Orleans or San Francisco in the future." He rubbed his hands together. "Next year, my son tells me, when families who can afford better accommodation begin to leave, we plan on refitting part of the upper deck with first-class cabins, but for now, our need is for space below deck."
"When who begins to leave?" Rosa asked.
"Our bankers bet on hard times, a mass exodus from Sicily within the next five years, growing stronger in the next decades."
Serafina and Rosa were silent.
"There's unrest all over the Europe. I'm afraid for France, that idiot Emperor trying to slap around the Kaiser—doesn't know what he's in for. And Italy struggles while Garibaldi fights Austria and the papal states. If more banks fail, the future of the merchant class in the south will be grim. The new world calls, and that's where we come in." The baron smiled.
Serafina swallowed. She imagined her son, Vicenzu, looking out at her from behind the windows of their empty apothecary shop, saw in her mind the streets of Oltramari which, lately, seemed rustier, dustier. But no, she rejected his words: after all, what did he know? She turned to Rosa, who caught her mood, reached over, and patted her hand.
"The ship's named after the baroness," Serafina said, looking at Rosa.
The baron nodded.
"A shame she's missing this day," Serafina said.
He furrowed his brows. "Afraid you're wrong there. She wanted nothing to do with our business. She hated it. How did she think …" His question hung in the air.
To break the mood, Rosa said, "Such an honor, having a ship named after—"
"Hated all talk of business." Red faced, the baron heaved himself over to the hearth, grabbed an iron, and poked at smoldering embers. "Drat those servants! Don't know how to tend a fire?"
Recovering somewhat, he sat across from them and crossed his legs. "What is it you wish to discuss—my married life? How my wife loathed me, couldn't bear the sight of me? How we slept in separate rooms, seldom spoke? How she never cared a fig for my business, didn't want to hear my thoughts on European history or its future? I disgusted her! I suppose she assumed aristocrats cultivated coins from the soil or grew them in huge pots and stored them in the larder. Unspeakably stubborn, Caterina, just like her father and his father before him. Blind to the change, killing themselves out, that's what they're doing. But …" He looked up at her portrait, then at a spot in the room as if he could see her shade. "She was so beautiful, like an angel when she walked into a room, and a poet with words, so charming, they flowed from her lips." He stopped, as if reluctant to leave the memory. "And I loved her."
The two women were silent until Serafina asked, "Your business, is that what killed her?"
