Project results
The purpose of the this monitoring program is to document the environmental status of the fjords in Hordaland, and to detect trends. The monitoring program consist of monthly sampling of mainly hydrographical parameters such as salinity, temperatur and oksygen, but also includes fluorescens and (in selected months) nutrients. Samples are collected from 14 different sites, covering most of the major fjord in the county of Hordaland. Once every year (jul.-sept.) macroalgea from the littoral zone on 22 different sites are investigated, which results in a yearly "macroalgae report". The monitoring program also includes a benthic survey (macrofauna and sediment) of 7 fjords i Hordaland.
Results from the this 3-year period of "Marin monitoring Hordaland" will be published as a report in 2019. Results is also reported yearly to Vannmiljø.

With graphite and acrylic, Italian artist Nunzio Paci creates illustrations that mix together the elements of anatomy and floral arrangements. This, in turn, creates abstract compositions that leap off the page.
The dreamy look and pastels give off a surrealistic impression, allowing a deeper and closer look inside each painting's subject – a deer, a fox, a wolf, and even a human. Instead of leaving his works as depictions of anatomically-correct skeletons, Paci adorns them with succulent bouquets of flowers and plants.

How cancer was only a minor detour for this travel-lover
Brenda and her husband have a life many people dream of. Instead of putting down roots, they've opted to enjoy life on the road — making "home" wherever their adventurous spirits and their RV takes them.
But their roving lifestyle was put on hold when Brenda, only 57 at the time, was diagnosed with stage one colorectal cancer.
It was a terrifying moment. Brenda, already a breast cancer survivor, lost her father-in-law a few years earlier after he had been diagnosed with late-stage colorectal cancer.
Since then, Brenda promised herself that she would get screened for colorectal cancer as soon as she turned 50. If caught early, there's a 90 percent survival rate[1] for colorectal cancer, the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in both men and women.[2]
"It boils down to a matter of life and death. [Screening] was certainly a priority for us," Brenda recalls.
But when the time came, she detested the preparation required to have an invasive colonoscopy.
"It's the prep that's not very pleasant," she explains. "It tastes horrible no matter what flavor you add to it. You're on a liquid diet, you're not eating anything the day before and you spend most of your time in the bathroom."
So when Brenda's nurse practitioner told her about a noninvasive, at-home screening test called Cologuard — the first and only stool DNA test approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for people 50 years and older who are at average risk for colorectal cancer — she was eager try it. (To better understand if Cologuard is right for you and understand all your options, download this discussion guide to help you talk to your health care provider.)
Brenda used Cologuard in the privacy of her own home and, using a prepaid UPS shipping label, sent it back to Exact Sciences Laboratories, the Wisconsin-based clinical laboratory that performs the test.
"The thing about Cologuard is it's a breeze," Brenda says. "You don't have any prep for it. You're in the convenience of your own home. It's a very simple test."
After a few weeks, Exact Sciences sent the results directly to her nurse practitioner. Brenda learned that she had a positive Cologuard test result that required follow-up.
Brenda returned to her doctor to have a large polyp removed that turned out to be cancerous and subsequently, she needed laparoscopic surgery to remove the right side of her colon.
Today, Brenda says her life is back to normal. She and her husband have resumed their busy lives and have embarked on their next adventure to celebrate being cancer-free.
"I feel blessed that it was caught at an early stage and I didn't have to have any other treatment," she says.
About Cologuard
Cologuard was approved by the FDA in August 2014 and results from Exact Sciences' prospective 90-site, point-in-time, 10,000-patient pivotal trial were published in the New England Journal of Medicine in March 2014. Cologuard is included in the American Cancer Society's (2014) colorectal cancer screening guidelines and the recommendations of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (2016) and National Comprehensive Cancer Network (2016). Cologuard is indicated to screen adults of either sex, 50 years or older, who are at average risk for colorectal cancer. Cologuard is not for everyone and is not a replacement for diagnostic colonoscopy or surveillance colonoscopy in high-risk individuals. False positives and false negatives do occur. Any positive test result should be followed by a diagnostic colonoscopy. Following a negative result, patients should continue participating in a screening program at an interval and with a method appropriate for the individual patient. Cologuard performance when used for repeat testing has not been evaluated or established. For more information about Cologuard, visit www.cologuardtest.com. Rx Only.

This charming series was used in the cabins of West Virginia State Parks, and some of it was also sold in park gift shops. Each piece had the seal of the State of West Virginia, but select pieces (most commonly plates) also had larger images of a deer, quail or log cabin.
It was made by both Carr and McNicol China.
This is an unusual covered cup and saucer set, made by McNicol. The cup is 4 1/4" across, including the handle, and approximately 2 1/4" high. The saucer has a diameter of 6 3/16". All are in excellent condition with no chips or cracks and only light overall use marks.
We do know that manufacturers offered cups with lids, and this set was purchased with the lid. And the lid seems to fit well. But as you will see, the lid has a slightly different color of tan clay body than the cup and saucer. It is unmarked and might have been made by Carr rather than McNicol, or it could simply have come from a different run.

The University of Iowa (College of Dentistry)
For 125 years, the College of Dentistry has been an integral part of The University of Iowa and a resource to the state of Iowa. The great majority of Iowa dentists are alumni of the College of Dentistry. The strength of our relationships with the university, the state, the profession, and with academic colleagues, alumni, practitioners, and industry, has enabled us to become one of the top dental schools in the United States. Our connections involving graduate education and research extend well beyond national boundaries, and give the College of Dentistry a reputation that is recognized worldwide.
With the arrival of the 21st century, our curriculum reflects new knowledge, technical excellence, ethics and practice management, with an increased emphasis on critical thinking and problem-based learning. The Dental Science Building has undergone the first major renovation in more than twenty-five years, with remodeled clinic areas, research laboratories, and a $3.7 million Simulation Clinic that prepares students for their patient experiences. Over 25 new faculty have been appointed to complement an experienced senior faculty. All new faculty have advanced training.
We are are currently the only dental school with advanced programs in all recognized specialty areas. Every discipline has at least one national leader. Outreach programs focus on children, special needs patients and seniors, including our national award-winning Geriatric Mobile Dental Unit.
Our research collaborations involve almost every college at The University of Iowa, other institutions in this country and abroad, and major oral health care companies. This scholarly environment nurtures the largest dental student research program in the nation, and supports a number of federally funded interdisciplinary research centers involving faculty from departments across the campus. Remaining current in a world of increasingly complex cases and constantly evolving technology will present a continuing challenge for future practitioners. By linking education with clinical care and research, the College of Dentistry is anticipating these needs, and is preparing dentistry for the future.

Salt is one of those household staples everyone has around. It sits on the table in a shaker and might be brought out for a stew or to salt some pork, but salt has tons of uses for everywhere in your home!
Artificial flowers: Artificial flowers have a tendency to get dusty, dirty and lose their original coloring under a layer of film that builds up over time. If you store your seasonal plastic flowers in the attic, you'll find them to looking a little sick when you're ready to bring them out again. The solution? Put a cup of salt into a brown paper lunch bag. Add the flower petals and shake them around a little in the bag. Your petals will come out looking like new!
Oven spills: Take a pinch of cinnamon and add it to your tablespoon of salt. Sprinkle the mix over the spill while it's still hot. The salt will help to break down the food, and will scrub away when the oven is cooled enough to clean. No more baked on grime in your oven, and no more burn smell when you cook!
Wicker: Salt water is a great cleaner for wicker. If your white wicker is looking a little yellow, rub it with the salt and water mixture (you can add a little lemon for a fresh scent). The yellow tinge will fade, leaving your wicker looking brand new.
Ants: If you have a trail of ants that likes to come into your home from a window, sprinkle some salt along the edge of the weather stripping. The ants won't cross a threshold covered in salt, so it will save your kitchen from an army of bugs!
Milk: Does your carton of milk seem to go bad long before you're done using it? Add a pinch of salt to your carton when you first open it and shake. The salt will preserve the milk a little longer. Another quick tip: try storing your milk in the back of the fridge; it will keep longer that way too!
Better Whipped Cream: The tiniest pinch of salt added to your cream will help it whip up extra quick and high! (The same works for egg whites!)
Canker Sore Cure: Have a painful canker sore in your mouth? Rinse your mouth with a very weak salt water solution (1 tsp per cup of water) a few times per day to help relieve pain and heal.
Poison Ivy: Have some poison ivy or oak living in your front yard? You can't burn it or pull it out, and weed killers aren't always effective. But salt is! Pour some soapy salt water over the roots of the plants and watch them wither away to nothing. No more poison ivy rashes!
Coffee: Putting a little salt into your cheap coffee grounds before brewing it can enhance the flavor; also, if your coffee has been sitting on the counter a little too long, put some salt to make it taste almost like fresh brewed again!
Coffee Stains: Your mugs will begin to look brown on the inside from all of those hundreds of cups of coffee every year. Those brown stains can be impossible to clean. Just soak them in a saltwater solution overnight and the soaked-in coffee stains will vanish, leaving your mugs looking new again.
Baked on Food: Baked on food can ruin your pans, but don't throw them out just yet. Try sprinkling a little salt it, then dampen. After a few hours, the salt will break up the baked on food enough that you can wipe it right off.
Clean your glasses: If your wine glasses have a little bit of a colored film on the inside that washing doesn't remove, warm water and salt will clear it right up with no elbow grease. Just an overnight soak will make your glass sparkle and shine.
Wash your spinach: Fresh Spinach can take several rinsings to get all of the sandy texture out. Try rinsing it in a salt bath instead, and it will cut down considerably on your washing time.
Cut Fruit: Dipping cut fruit in a saltwater bath will keep them looking fresh. No more browning fruit trays!

The good news is that middle-class suburbs are becoming increasingly integrated. However, a closer look at the migration patterns of whites and minorities reveals a more complex picture, rife with racism.
The Washington Post - Wonkblog
Sam Roberts reports on a new study of census results that found the nation's cities are more racially integrated than at any time since 1910.

Grandpa Was a Deity
How a Tribal Assertion Created Modern Culture
- $12.99
- $12.99
Publisher Description
What began with a basic curiosity of an adoptee about his biological origins, became a genetic exploration into history when he discovered two of his identifying y-chromosome markers created a rare, but traceable, combination which appeared in supporting data of multiple research papers. This book explores both his documented ancestry and that revealed by his y-DNA.
Along the way, everything in his personal history seems to contribute in some way to the results of his research. The most significant element of that personal history is probably his learned inability to allow himself to be defeated by transient intellectual problems, or perceived handicap.
In the process of joining him as he searches for his past, you will be exposed to techniques that can assist you in discovering aspect of your own genealogy which you may never have considered. You will also, as he states in the book, be introduced to secret knowledge contained in the Book of Genesis. As part of that knowledge, you will learn why the patriarchs were given lifespans ranging from several hundred to nearly a thousand years. You will learn of a connection between Stonehenge, Britains earthwork hedges, and the Great Pyramids one that does not involve, or invoke, alien astronauts.
Many books have garnered the labeled Groundbreaking, but seldom has there been one that is so current as to render the use of any conventional bibliography superfluous. Almost weekly there are new findings in the fields of DNA ancestry, archaeology and the relatively new field of astro-archaeology. Amazingly, they all seem to reinforce the connections and associations revealed here. But you might also discover things about the factual underpinnings of religion which you might not wish to know, or think about. Not the least of which is why there was time when the wisest people believed their Grandpa was a Deity.

(Again, a post less general and more personal to me [than some]. Factual/theoretical dissertations may resume shortly.)
Well, that's done. You want some figures?
My first serious attempt at NaNo was in November 2011. I set my target at 33,333 words (two thirds of the full 50K, since I had school to contend with) and wrote 34,133.
My second serious attempt was Camp July 2013. I set my target at 25,000 words (half of the full 50K, because I knew I'd be away a lot of the time) and wrote 35,125.
That's the whole story. I've only tried it twice with a definite personal goal in mind, and both times I've been stinted by other commitments. Someday I'll get 50K. I write at a quick enough rate… It's just when it takes place in a month I've nothing better to do.
Oh, I complain. So many people with full-time jobs get well over 50,000 year after year. How hard can it be, if you're truly motivated?
After all, on day one I wrote over 7,000 words! By day two that was up to 11,000. And then I got lazy… But these past few days I've been trying to make amends. I'll snapshot my graph and you can all bear witness to my erraticness/erraticism/erraticity(?!). My 'friends' always chide me for inconsistency.
Yeah, my cabin wasn't the best. Only two of us got past the 5K mark, and the other girl reached her target of twice that and didn't continue. I am the proud contributor of seventy percent of my cabin's words. Unfortunately I couldn't get everyone else's targets for them as well as my own.
In the past week I've experienced several surprise revelations—sudden unexpected plot twists and characters spiralling out of control. Does this always happen on first drafts? I've never noticed it before—but to be fair, I've always been such a pantser it hasn't mattered.
This time, however…
To put all this in context, my WriMo novel is something of a detective story, with the relationships constituting the sub-plot, and elements of action, romance and mistaken paranormal thrown in for good measure. And the good old boarding school returns again!
For a start, there's my foremost supporting character. In the first story, she was just another character thrown in for contrast and remote moral support. She didn't even speak till the epilogue. Yes, it sounds amateur, but I've brought her back for a larger role in the sequel, to make her previous appearances just a big set-up.
And what a role! Her character has been the steadiest and least changeable of everything in my life this month. Before last Friday, I didn't even realise quite how enigmatic she was. I thought she was shy or nervous, or incredibly self-conscious. 'Insipid', Drina calls her. (Very nice of you, Drina.)
Well, she's not. She's not at all. If she's quiet, it's because she has nothing to say. And that's only deception, too! She knows things the rest of the cast would give anything to know, too. She never asks questions, and rarely answers them straight. She tells no two people the same things, but never lies. And she never ever tells the whole story.
Much of the plot hangs upon both her silence and her words, and she is the source of most of the story's revelations. Simply because nothing anyone else says affects how she communicates. She won't be coaxed, threatened, tempted, trained…
She's a strange character—one of the most interesting I've ever created. And she wasn't even supposed to be interesting. Plus because she doesn't express herself properly (and doesn't care whether she does or not), I can do exciting and terrifying things with her relationships…
Secondly, my long-time lovers separated. And I never saw that coming. They've been engaged for four and a half years, and I thought they were so attached, ultimate soul-mates…
But the more gentle and compliant one of the two suggested it, and my MC was so surprised she just walked away. Sad, eh?
And the funny thing is, I scarcely even know how it happened. One moment they were all lovey-dovey and apologising for I-don't-know-what; the next minute they'd parted. And all done so gently and shockingly I hadn't an idea what was bound to happen before it actually did.
It's so shocking I can scarcely say more about it. So I won't. I don't even know if they'll get back together again. Fortunately I'm only halfway through the story, and though they won't meet again till the end, if the rest of my plan decides to hold out(!), they've plenty of time to think it over.
And thirdly, the crazy idea came to me to bring back to life a character who's been dead twenty-five years (storywise). I'm not sure if I'll actually do it or not…but my imagination presented it to me in such a way as to make everything else work perfectly. Hm, this requires no mean thought!
This next fortnight I'm back to editing. Wish me good fun!

Ligature 5
by Forrest Gander
It's not an insult to refuse to drain the glass, she tells me
And a fly crawls from the bowl of sauza picante.
Would you choose to bury the organs with the child?
And he retreats to his room and closes the door.
Here, birds in the zocalo whiz and tweet like children's toys
And there, a charred corpse hanging from the bridge.
From the seat behind, he pokes her head with a plastic fork
And getting no response, tests it on his own head.
Would you turn the damn wipers off, the attendant asks
And the odor of manure and wet hay hits us.
A kind of mystery gloms to those who have suffered deeply
And thank you Mr. and Mrs. Radiance.
It sounded like the chimmuck of a rock dropped into a stream
And the piston-driven breathing of sex.
The couple at the bus station—when had we kissed like that?
Nice evening—Yes it is—A bit skunky—That's for sure.
Terrorist and victim circling the last chair as the music stops
And the valves of their mouths snapping open and shut.
When I rise out of myself into occasion, I said
And when do you rise out of yourself into occasion, she asked.
Late enough to count maple loopers and geometrids at the window
And the boy will be coming up the porch steps when he comes.
The long row of treadmills choiring
And above them, televisions replay the disaster.

Valentine's Day will be here in a mere two weeks—did you know that it's one of the most hazardous holidays for our animal friends? Below, your South Dade, FL veterinary professional tells you about five of the most common dangers and how to keep your pet safe from harm.
Safety with Sweets
You're probably aware that chocolate is very bad for animals; don't let your four-legged friend eat chocolate of any kind, because serious symptoms like drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, collapse, and worse can develop very quickly. Many candies and gums are harmful, too, as these sweets are often made with an artificial sugar known as xylitol. Xylitol can cause serious problems, including seizures and even coma, in very small amounts. Restrict your pet's access to all sweets!
Avoid Alcohol
If your Valentine's Day festivities will include alcoholic beverages, keep your pet's safety in mind. Alcohol of all sorts—including liquor, beer, wine, and champagne—can poison pets easily. Keep a close eye on all unattended drinks to ensure that your pet doesn't have a chance to take a sip.
Human Food Hazards
Sweet treats and alcohol aren't the only hazardous human foods out there. Your pet shouldn't be allowed to get their paws on garlic, onions, leeks, shallots, chives, scallions, grapes, raisins, macadamia nuts, avocado, salty items, fatty foods, caffeinated foods or beverages, and more. Ask your vet for a complete list of toxic foods for animals so that you can keep prying paws away.
Poisonous Plant Life
Lilies are common in bouquets, floral arrangements, and gift baskets this time of year. Remember: they're a dangerous pet poison! Lilies are particularly known for poisoning our feline friends, but they may harm dogs as well. It's best to remove any and all lilies from your home at once. Also beware of roses, since their sharp thorns can harm a pet who chews on a rose stem.
Candle Cautions
Valentine's Day just doesn't seem complete without candles. If you're lighting candles to spark that romantic holiday mood, use caution—it's very easy for pets to swipe a paw or tail through an open flame, potentially spilling hot wax or even starting a fire! It's safest to light candles in an area where pets can't reach.

Grief Resolutions
As we approach the dawn of a new year, many of us contemplate making resolutions designed to kick bad habits and foster a commitment to good health. Resolution is defined as "a firm decision to do or not to do something". Grief however does not respond well to resolutions. We cannot make a firm decision "to do or not do" grief. The option really isn't ours. As humans who form attachments – to other people,… Read more »
Death anniversaries
We don't need a big, red circle around certain days on the calendar. These are the dates that are etched in our memories. We remember where we were, who we were with, and what time of year it was. Today marks the 30th anniversary of the death of my grandfather. In those 30 years there have been innumerable family milestones: births, weddings, graduations, and holiday gatherings.

What to say to a grieving person
How many times have you felt anxious at the thought of attending a visitation? Did you run through what you might say to those in the receiving line? If so, you aren't alone. People often feel uncomfortable and unsure of what to say or do. What not to say The following video by Kay Warren provides helpful guidance in what and what not to say. If you aren't a person of prayer, you can… Read more »

I'm sitting here listening to Guns N Roses' album 'Appetite for Destruction' on Pandora Radio. Yes, I have eclectic musical tastes–everything from Def Leppard to the Baroque lutenist Robert (Bob) Barto. You could blame these wide-ranging tastes on the facts that I had a mother who had been a concert pianist in her youth, and still played every night after supper, as well as my growing up in the heady 60's during the British Invasion (of pop and rock music, that is.)
I tried to upload a music file of mine to YouTube, to no avail. I could either get the audio up or the video, but not both. Here's the silent video file (you have already heard the audio here: More of my music: Traditional folk harp). The video takes you on a shaky three minute mini-tour of one corner of my living room:
So, while I'm listening to 'Sweet Child of Mine,' I decided to take a few pics of the books surrounding me on the coffee table and couch, to give you an idea of what I'm reading these days.
The stack on the right of the coffee table contains just a few of the very many books I'm reading in preparation for teaching an SCA class on Eleanor of Aquitaine (Duchess of Aquitaine, Queen of France, and then Queen of England in the 12th century) liege lady of William the Marshal of England, who was, and is, considered to be The Greatest Knight of all times:
The middle stack includes some of the books I'm using for my second year of teaching Women in the Viking Age. The shelf underneath has some of my many birder books, except for the ones specific to Iceland and also to North Atlantic seabirds. Those books reside on the Iceland and Viking shelves in a separate bookcase.
But back to the top of the coffee table: on the left are two very new books. My brother Chris and sister-in-law Missy gave me an Amazon gift card for Christmas and my birthday recently, and I blew it on these two books. 🙂
I highly recommend both these books! ❤ The larger one is Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts: Twelve Journeys into the Medieval World, by Christopher de Hamel. De Hamel is probably the best-known contemporary writer on medieval manuscripts in the world. This book was recommended to me by my close friend, the artist Tim Porges, with whom I went to Grinnell College way back in the day.
Twelve Journeys' manuscripts include not only the expected exemplars of books of hours, and The Book of Kells, but also, for example, a manuscript recommending warfare techniques to a liege lord, which turned out to be my favorite of the whole lot. There is also a really nice section on a manuscript of The Hengwrt Chaucer.
One of the features of Twelve Journeys is de Hamel's recounting of the histories of these manuscripts and their discovery in modern times, as well as his own journeys to see them in the repositories where they currently reside. Kind of a travelogue featuring very very old books and sometimes cranky, but sometimes sweet guardians of Rare Book Rooms in libraries around the world.
The book on top of Twelve Journeys is The Hastings Hours, published by The British Library. It is a reproduction of the Book of Hours written and illuminated around 1480 C.E. by Flemish artisans for William Lord Hastings of England. It contains all the miniatures of the original, reproduced so clearly that you can often see the artists' brushstrokes. I've already spent hours looking at this little tome.
Looking beside me on the couch, I find these books, which I just received in the last two or three days.
The book on the left is for my Women in the Viking Age class. It is by Johanna Katrin Fridriksdottir, entitled Women in Old Norse Literature: Bodies, Words, and Power. I discovered it late in my research a little over a year ago when I was working on a paper comparing two women in the Icelandic family sagas. See Swotting away…
Of course, when you find something late in the course of your research, it always turns out to be something that causes a sea change in your thinking, and in this case it was no different. Fridriksdottir basically analyzes female characters from all the Icelandic sagas in terms of agency, and that analysis threw a new spin on the analysis I was employing in my paper (which, by the way, I never did complete, although I may still do it!).
If you are at all interested in the Sagas and Viking women in them, in particular, and if you have a taste for academic discourse, I recommend Fridriksdottir's book as one that you cannot overlook.
I was able to borrow the book last year during my research for the paper from The Ohio State University Library, but cannot do so now because I'm not enrolled this semester. So I had to bite the bullet and order it. Last summer it was priced around $75, but now it has gone up to $100. Yikes! 😛 These scholarly books do not come cheap.
To the right of Fridriksdottir's book is The British Museum's small coffee table (or couch) book, Viking Poetry of Love and War. I received this enchanting book this weekend from Jen Johnson when we met to go out to dinner after the SCA event, Festival of Maidens. You can see two photos of Jen and hear about the gift and our dinner at Festival of Maidens 2018.
Finally, to the right of those books is the one I splurged on at Maidens, a beautiful 1969 edition of The Tres Riches Heures of Jean, Duke of Berry.
This edition of The Tres Riches Heures includes all the miniatures in full color and to scale, as well as many of the textual pages with their illuminated capitals. Just the heavy weight of each page of this edition is a delight to handle, but when the fine quality of the reproductions is also taken into account, it is almost as if you are there looking over the Limbourg brothers' shoulders as they created this masterpiece in the early 1400's.
I found this book on a shelf of other wonderful art history books at Festival of Maidens, in the stall of the North Star Armory, whose Facebook page is at North Star Armory. I had picked out another book of medieval art history published in Germany when I spied this Tres Riches Heures, and then the contest was over.
North Star Armory also had very tempting turtle brooches and trefoil brooches there, and many other things, but as I've said before, I am a bookaholic, so it was a book that captured my greatest interest and my purse. 🙂 I repaid them for the richness of their booth by returning with my purple harp and playing the latest trouvere chanson I'm learning, this one from the 1100's by Blondel de Lisle.

Rangpur Riders going to native town for awareness program
A friendly cricket match of physically disabled and autistic children is going to be arranged in Rangpur Divisional Stadium this 27th September. The native representative of BPL Rangpur Riders and a social organization named Ardrid and popular online based news agency BDCricTime are patronizing the whole event. [নিউজটি বাংলায় পড়ুনঃ ২৭ সেপ্টেম্বররংপুর রাইডার্স যাচ্ছে নিজ শহরে]
Besides that friendly match another cultural program is going to be held there in that stadium that day. Physically disabled children will perform there. Basically this program is arranged to encourage autistic and disabled children who are socially deprived. To encourage them Bangladesh National one day cricket team's captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza will join the friendly match. Besides, other three star cricketer of national team Shahriar Nafees, Abdur Razzak and Rubel Hossain will also be there.Also Read - I still have a lot to give to national team: Shahadat
It was known by talking to organizers that the objective of this event is to encourage the disabled children and increase the confidence of them so that they can join different competitional programs. This will remove the misconception about them. This program is expected to bring a positive change of thinking of mass people about autism and physically disability.
A facebook event has been opened by the organizers so that interconnection gets easy for mass people. People can share and invite their friends on that event.
BDCricTime is patronizing this sort of event with physically disabled children not for the first time. Previously they have done many programs like this several times which got applauded by people. Social Organization Ardrid also does many awareness programs regarding autism. This time country-wide favorite BPL Team Rangpur Riders have taken the step with the initiation of BDCricTime and Ardrid.
To be noted, the match is going to be started at 10 am in 27th September at the heart of sports loving people, Divisional Stadium, Rangpur. The slogan or motto of this event is "Come and be a part of united and free society for disabled people."

Stay Away from the Gray Market Industry when buying Dental products
There are indeed countless options for those interested on buying dental products online, and these may vary in prices, safety and quality. They gray market industry is a common option for the variety of products and some sort of freedom they can offer within transactions. But one thing for user is that it also comes with a lot of threats, scams and cheats. Respected dentists offices do not buy from gray market because they know all things that could go wrong with the purchase of a product, and this is the same reason why these offices trust on websites like Dentee.com when it comes to buying cheaper dental material in the market with an assurance of safety and cero illegalness.
There is one truth that explains all the movement the gray market has, and it is the possibility to find cheaper prices for products, but every person who buys behind the manufacturers back knows the consequences a cheap product can cause.

Odontology is a field that must be treated with the highest levels of thoroughness and effort as the appearance and overall health of people is at stake.

But everything is not lost, as online shopping has given this industry incredible opportunities for cheaper dental products available for everyone interested. Dentee.com has always been committed to offer the best quality and cheap prices, to ensure any dentist office to strive and impart health to the community.

"The rhythm of breathing is a constant accompaniment to life" from The Secret Language of Birthdays by Gary Goldschneider & Joost Elffers
"My first interaction with Caro was over a Skype call. Right away Caro struck me as an intelligent woman that like to get involved in a multitude of things which made for a very interesting conversation. Caro suggested the idea of getting a friend of hers involved… Jodee, a Set and Wardrobe Stylist. And I was like, "Sure! Why not?". We had a lot of fun and the image was everything I imagined. I was so happy that she was so enthusiastic to be involved in the concept for the shoot." – Camila G
Image by © Camila Gargantini
An Interview with Caro
Q. What is the best memory you have from a previous birthday?
A. If I am going to be perfectly honest here, I never put much energy into celebrating my own birthday. So much so that I planned my wedding 3 days before my 30th birthday — so when I look back, I actually have zero recollection of my 30th birthday, and just remember my wedding weekend. So I guess in not remembering my birthday, I highlighted a different milestone in my life.
Q. How about the worst? And why?
A. Even as a child, I don't remember looking forward to my own birthday. It must be because I don't like people making a fuss about me. So when you have no expectations, you have no disappointment. And that's why I don't have a "worst birthday" memory.
Q. What was the present you've received for your birthday that surprised you most?
A. I must sound like the most "no fun" person ever, but since I don't tell many people that it's my birthday, it usually just passes with no fan fare. I usually don't get presents.
Q. Is there a food or dish that you insist on eating on your birthday?
A. My family and I will at the very least go out for dinner on my birthday. And we will always have noodles. It's a Chinese belief that was adopted by Filipinos. To eat noodles on your birthday is to ensure long life.
Q. What do you believe is the most important aspect of celebrating a birthday?
A. For me the celebration is internal, to have a quiet moment to have gratitude. And also to vocalize intentions for the new year of life, like my goals and what I want to accomplish, and what I would like to change, etc.
Q. Do you have any traditions or thing you always do to celebrate a birthday? What is it?
A. I mentioned in the previous question. We have to have noodles, usually pancit — which is a Filipino version of chow mein. For long life.

Hikari Foods' eco-friendly factory installed the following facilities.
Solar Panel Power Generation System
The roof spaces of factory and parking lot are used for generating clean energy by solar panels.
Gas Storage Tank
Stored LP gas is mainly used for boilers and gas heat pump air conditioners. These air conditioners heat and cool by operating compressors with a gas engine instead of an electric motor.
Drainage Treatment Facility
The contaminated water in production is biologically filtered by the special hollow fiber membrane and drained after being made cleaner than the Yoshino River nearby.
We make the water used for cleaning bottles and factory lines neutral and reuse it as cooling water being watered by the sprinklers on the roof in order to lower the temperature inside the factory in summer.
LP Gas Boiler
Instead of consuming cheap heavy oil on a general type of boiler, we use eco-friendly clean gas energy emitting less carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxidant and sulfur oxidant which are considered to be the causes of global warming and air pollution. In addition, the introduction of a high-efficiency boiler with a waste heat exchanger realizes a 96% efficiency rate and steam condensed water is collected for energy-saving.
Membrane Degasifier
Cooling Tower
A large amount of coolant is constantly required to operate the vacuum concentrator that we use to concentrate tomatoes, etc.
Compost Yard
To reduce the quantity of waste to the minimum, we compost the skin of organic vegetables/fruits and sludge accumulated by drainage treatment only by natural energy, not using electric power.

Hospitals across the country are realizing the benefits that arise from integrating key clinical service lines with a single partner. With approximately 130 integrated client sites across the country, TeamHealth is helping to advance the trend toward clinical integration.
One Alabama health system is benefitting from the natural integration of emergency and hospital medicine after only a few short months. In that short period of time, health system leaders are already noticing measurable progress across important metrics such as reduced length of stay, expanded emergency department and inpatient capacity, and improved patient and clinician satisfaction.
Adopting shared goals, and working from a shared dashboard that helps each group improve alignment and identify opportunities for collaboration, this regional health system is realizing positive results that have already translated into improved financial performance.
These early successes, combined with the positive results at other TeamHealth client locations across the country, underscore the dramatic impact that service line integration can have on a hospital's clinical, operational and financial performance.

I recently purchased a set of portable hand controls by Freedom Staff. I don't like the push/pull system so I'm selling them and going a different direction. $200 shipped or picked up in Baltimore.
Note: The spinner knob shown attached is not included. The one that comes with the set is different and as appears in the stock photo.

Pyewacket (CIFF 2017)
Watching Pyewacket is like riding a roller coaster, generally having a good time while on it, and then having it abruptly come to a stop halfway down the final descent. It feels like the first 60 minutes of a good 90-minute film. Just when things start to get really fun, it ends. It tries to go for a chaotic conclusion with a "shock" at the very end, but none of that quite lands. I guess that means the vast majority of the ride is enjoyable, except you'll leave with a bad taste in your mouth. Weird how that can happen.
The film follows Leah (Nicole Muñoz), an angsty teen often at odds with her mother (Laurie Holden). They move into a house in the woods, uprooting Leah's entire life, so she decides to put a curse upon her mother in a fit of rage. Turns out, the ritual worked, and now there's a certain something that's after her mother and, possibly, Leah.
All of that is a lot of fun, and it's made even more enjoyable because we get an understanding of who these people are and why they're acting the way they do. Like in director Adam MacDonald's prior film, Backcountry, the characters are given depth and complexity, so we can both understand their actions and begin to care what happens to them. Pyewacket takes just enough time to get going and set the scene, builds a solid atmosphere, has a couple of scares, and then goes for chaos and shock at the end and can't stick the landing. It's so good up until this point.
Conclusion: Pyewacket is a really solid horror movie … until the ending, which leaves a bad taste in one's mouth.
Recommendation: Pyewacket is a fun enough ride to recommend even with the ending as it is.

This soup is easy to make and totally delicious! Makes 6-7 servings…
- 1 lb Organic Spicy Sausage (I used Isernio's Chicken Sausage)
- 1 sweet potato
- 2-3 carrot sticks
- 2-3 celery stalks
- 2 yellow onions
- 3 green onions
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1.5 tbsp olive oil
- 1.5 tsp curry powder
- 7-8 cups chicken broth or stock
- salt/pepper to taste
The Process:
- Start by peeling the sweet potato, roughly chopping all the veggies, and mincing the garlic.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high.
- Saute the onion and garlic for a minute or two, then add the sausage. Use a big spoon or spatula to break up the sausage into chunks. Don't make the chunks too small. You'll want some bigger chunks that turn into delicious little meatballs when it's finished. Cook the sausage until it's just starting to brown.
- Add all the veggies and sweet potato. Add the curry powder, using as much as you want. I like curry so I almost quadrupled the amount listed here.
- Saute everything together, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato and carrots start to soften. While that's cooking, add the broth to a large pot and bring it to a boil.
- Once the potatoes and carrots are soft, throw everything in the pot and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
- Once it's ready, you can eat it as is or put it in a blender or food processor and puree it. I like the chunky version best.

Purchasing a resale property
STEP 1: Choose a reliable local contact
Do not believe the first person you meet and keep your wits about you!
Andalucia Vastgoed acts as an independent property advisor-estate agent-architect: this means that we do not act as a commercial agent but rather as your partner in your search for a suitable property.
There is no better place to start the house hunting process than with us, as we provide full access to the Spanish property market! In order to use our specific services without any added costs, it is important that we register you with our partners as our customer. If we don't do this, we lose our right to commission and we will need to charge you separately for our services.
We offer complete transparency. Every homeowner who puts his property up for sale, signs a commission agreement with the estate agent. The commission fees are usually shared 50/50 with their partners. The partners we work with are familiar with the way we work and know that we like to carry out our own checks and investigations. We have used this way of working since we established our business in 2005 as our customers told us that they could not see the woods from the trees.
Perhaps you have already started negotiations but would like to use our services to make sure that you know what you are buying. Feel free to contact us because we could still help you, against a fee, and put you in touch with the right people.
STEP 2: Reservation contract
Once we have found a suitable property, it is important that it is taken off the market as soon as possible. This is when we use a reservation or deposit contract. The 2 most important things in this contract are the final purchase price and the reservation period for the property.
The deposit sum is €5000. This deposit is paid into the account of Andalucia Vastgoed's client. Only once this amount has been deposited into the account and both buyer and seller have signed the document is the property considered to be reserved.
The reservation period is usually 1 month (can be extended if the checks or obtaining the right documentation takes more time than this).
Reasons for a termination of contract where you can still get your deposit back could be: being unable to get a mortgage, or irregularities in the Land Registry or cadastre, if specified in the contract.
Step 3: Get a good, reliable attorney or solicitor, somebody who knows his job!
Experience has shown that it is better and more efficient to use a local Spanish attorney rather than a foreign attorney who speaks the same language as you do. The language should not be a problem. Most attorneys speak English and, if necessary, we are always there to advise you.
The attorney will carry out the necessary checks, he will also check whether the property is in the Land Registry (registro de la propiedad) and the cadastral register (el catastro), and also checks to make sure there are no property related debts.
It is not uncommon in the campo, i.e. outside urban zones, for building works not be registered in the Land Registry (see: nota simple). Any additions to the property made after the sale, such as outhouses, swimming pools, etc. used to be added without registering these works in the Land Registry. The register is now slowly being updated which helps us during the buying process.
Note: a attorney only checks the documents which are sent to him. He does not usually visit the property himself. This is why close cooperation between us and the attorney is so important! Not all attorneys appreciate the involvement of a consultancy and this is why we would again like to emphasise the importance of a good attorney!
In addition, your attorney should check whether there are any property related debts: outstanding electricity and water bills, taxes due, mortgage loans or costs for maintaining common gardens and swimming pools (the latter applies predominantly to urbanisations).
These debts must be cleared by the day of sale at the latest. If not, your attorney can demand necessary payments from the seller to ensure that all outstanding costs in his name are paid.
If the dossier is approved, the attorney will draw up the private sales contract before the next stage of the sales process.
In het geval het dossier OK bevonden wordt, stelt de advocaat het privé-koopcontract op wat de volgende fase van het verkoopsproces inleidt.
The following two things are extremely important if you are serious about buying property:
- You should apply for a NIE number: ( Número de Identificación de Extranjeros or Foreigners' Identification Number). This is the tax reference number for all foreign nationals who live in Spain or reside in Spain for more than 182 days a year. You need this NIE number for all commercial transactions (including registration of your property with the Land Registry, opening bank accounts, starting a business, getting a phone line, gas and electricity and when taking out any insurance in Spain!) and tax returns. You can apply for a NIE number at main police stations with a special department for foreigners (Comisaria de Policía – Oficina de Extranjeros). You can find these police stations in all major cities. You can also ask your tax agent (gestor or attorney) to help you with this. We can also assist you with this process.
- The next step is opening a bank account: when you are not in Spain, the attorney is usually given power of attorney to open and manage a bank account to ensure that deposits and any other payments can be made promptly.
Stap 4: Private purchasing contract
During this stage, 10% of the sales price is paid by the buyer. The private purchasing contract is comparable to the compromis stage in Belgium and lists all buyer and seller details, a detailed description of the property, method of payment and a fixed or ultimate date on which contracts need to be exchanged at the notary office.
If you, as a buyer, decide for personal reasons not to go ahead with the purchase after signing the private purchasing agreements, you will lose the deposit. In case the seller decides for personal reasons not to go ahead with the sale, he is legally obliged to pay back the deposit, i.e. the 10% plus a fine of another 10%. Please check with your attorney to make sure that this provision is included.
This stage is binding for both parties and is intended to consolidate the sale.
Stap 4: Title deeds (escritura)
Signing the title deeds (escritura) usually takes place within 3 months, dependent on the type of property you are buying and whether or not you need a mortgage, which can significantly delay the buying process.
In Spain the job of the notary is limited to drawing up the title deeds and lodging the deeds with the Land Registry. This is the reason why people buying property in Spain also need to engage the services of an attorney so that they can be sure the property has been legally sold.
Buyer's costs
A fundamental rule when buying property in Spain is to add approximately 11% to the sales price to cover all additional costs. Please note: if the sales price is low (e.g. less than €120,000) this could be 13% since not all costs are worked out as a percentage of the sales price, some are fixed.
(If you require a mortgage, please allow an additional 13% to 15% of the sales price).
We can break down the purchasing costs as follows:
8% transfer tax (Impuesto de Transmisiones Patrimoniales).
This amount is calculated on the basis of the purchase price declared in the deeds, i.e. the specified price.
1% attorney's costs.
This amount is calculated on the basis of the sales price as given on the internet, in magazines or in the estate agent's window. You also need to pay 21% VAT on top of the solicitor's fees.
(I.V.A.= Impuesto sobre el Valor Añadido).
Notary fees approximately 0,25% of the purchase price declared in the deeds.
These vary dependent on the complexity of the deeds. The fees are higher if the property is mortgaged, for example.
Land Registry Inscription Fees approximately 0,15% of the purchase price declared in the deeds.
Comparable to the notary fees although generally a little lower.
The estate agent costs are always included in the sale price, at least they are in Malaga. However, in practice the property owner pays the estate agent a commission.
An example: you buy a property of €300,000
8% transfer tax: 8% of 300.000€
= €24.000
1% attorney's costs: 3000€ incl. 21% VAT
= €3.000
Notary costs approximately 0,25%* of the purchase price declared in the deeds
= €750
Registration costs approximately 0,15%* of the purchase price declared in the deeds
= €450
Total estimated costs*
= €28.740
* Comment:
If you require a mortgage, you will pay 2% to 3% more since you also have to pay notary fees for mortgage registration. On top of this there are costs for registration in the Land Registry, taxes, administrative costs (gestór), valuation and dossier costs.
Tax changes since 01/01/2012 for buying/selling property!
Resale homes:
The transfer tax to be paid when buying a resale home has increased as of 2012.
Sales price up to €400,000 : 8% on top of the sales price
Sales price between €400,000 to € 700,000 : 9%
Sales price above €700.000 : 10%
An example:
For a €250,000 property you pay €250,000€ x 0,08= €20,000 transfer tax.For a €1,000.,000 property you pay :
up to the amount of €400,000 x 8% = €32,000
on the amount between €400,000 to 700,000= 300,000 x 9% = €27,000
on the amount between €700,000 to €1,000,000= 300,000 x 10% = €30,000
Total transfer tax = €89,000
For garages:
Sales price up to €30,000 : 8% on top of the sales price on the amount between €30,000 to €50,000 : 9%
Above €50,000: 10%
