On October 19, Dr. Dana Reinecke presented "10 Things to Know Before You Leave Home (And How to Learn Them)" at Transitions' "Strategies to Build Independence for Students with Autism, ADHD and Other Learning Differences" conference. Her presentation covered basic skills that are more challenging for young adults with autism and other learning differences and strategies their support network can use to prepare them to perform those essential tasks on their own. We would like to share what we learned from Dr. Reinecke in this series of posts.
7. Friends
Handling friendships as adults is much more difficult than it is as children, because friendships between children are often scheduled and managed by parents and schools. For some young adults, that structure can leave them not knowing how to make friends on their own. It is important that they be taught how to make plans to do fun things, initiate those plans by calling or texting, suggest specific activities at specific times, be on time for activities, make plans to do something else in the future after a successful interaction, end activities appropriately and follow through on plans.
Strategy: Shaping
Shaping is the practice of teaching a new skill from the ground up. It is common with language, play skills and social skills. Training moves gradually, starting with what is comfortable and natural to the person and reinforcing approximations to the goal until skills build. The training should build in demands and take small steps toward new sets of behaviors.
Objective 1: Making plans with friends
A person's behavior can be shaped toward comfortably making plans by starting with texting rather than calling and building up to more in-person invitations. Social media and software such as Skype are also useful in this endeavor.
Objective 2: Following through
Some young adults need to build flexibility with what activities they are willing to do with other people. They may want to stick only with what they are familiar with and be reluctant to try new things. This can limit activities they do with friends. To shape this behavior, the person can start doing a highly preferred activity that they choose with a friend, then move to doing a preferred activity that the friend and they chose together, and finally moving to an entirely new activity that the friend picks.
We hope these tips and strategies are helpful to you. Please remember that these are generalized examples and all goals, objectives, teachings and support strategies should always be individualized to see beneficial results. Feel free to mix and max strategies discussed in each post to fit the person you're teaching. Everyone learns differently, so being flexible and working from individual strengths is absolutely essential in teaching these skills.
Good luck and check this blog again next week for the next installment in this series.

Beachway New Jersey will provide outpatient rehab services for adults seeking treatment for issues relating to addiction, alcoholism, and co-occurring disorders associated with addiction and substance use. We will offer tailored treatment plans that meet the clinical needs of each individual client.
Is an Outpatient Program Right for You?
The daily challenges of balancing family, work or school can make focusing on addiction issues difficult. Outpatient Services can provide an effective yet convenient solution for demanding schedules. With daytime and evening sessions available you can access quality addiction treatment that integrates with your schedule. An outpatient recovery program allows individuals to carry on with their responsibilities without sacrificing their health.
Many people can continue living their life with minimal disruption when they take part in our outpatient program. Our programs are ideal for those who:
- Are in the early stages of recovery and need help sustaining sobriety
- Are in long term recovery but would like help with other mental health issues
- Need help rebuilding trust, establishing a sober support group, and developing healthy relationships.
An outpatient rehab program offers regular group and individual therapy sessions, which are facilitated by licensed Clinicians. These therapy sessions are designed to cover a variety of topics. These topics can include developing processes to help manage emotions and stressors, understanding "trigger" feelings and situations which may lead to abuse, money management strategies and planning, and how to adapt to unfamiliar and stressful situations.
Our New Jersey Outpatient Drug Rehab Offers
Group Counselling is designed to help individuals struggling with addiction by providing a regular, non-judgmental, and safe place to discuss issues unique to addiction recovery. By meeting with others experiencing similar issues, group therapy helps individuals feel less isolated and alone, which can decrease negative feelings that may lead to relapse.
Individual Counselling is a treatment intervention based on one-on-one conversations with a clinician. These sessions are available to help you process thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By working with a clinician in a private setting you may gain a clearer understanding of your inner-self and reach your personalized treatment goals.
Brian Esposito, Primary Counselor (BS, CAC, ICRC-ADC)
Born and raised in Matawan New Jersey, Brian has a first-hand understanding of how addiction has impacted his community. Having lost so many close friends and family members to the disease of addiction Brian understands that addiction does not discriminate and can impact many people from all walks of life. Brian has a Bachelors in Human Services with a concentration in Addiction Studies. For over eight years Brian has been a vital part of the Beachway Therapy Center team, most recently as a Lead Therapist in our Florida inpatient location. His keen understanding of Family Counselling, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Relapse Prevention and Group Dynamics make him an invaluable part of any clinical team.

Kostas Perrikos
Kostas Perrikos (Greek: Κώστας Περρίκος; 23 April 1905 – 4 February 1943) was a Greek Air Force officer and leader of the PEAN resistance movement in World War II.[1] He is the father of the UN arms control Commissioner Dimitris Perrikos (Δημήτρης Περρίκος).
Early yearsEdit
Perrikos was born in Kallimasia on the island of Chios where he received his elementary education. His family later moved to Alexandria, where he completed high school. He returned to Greece in 1925 and in 1926 he entered the Air Force Academy, which he left with a commission as a Lieutenant. Perrikos was a fervent Republican who had been dismissed from the Air Force after the failed Venizelist coup attempt in March 1935. He was married to Maria Deligiorgi, with whom he had three children.
During World War IIEdit
After the outbreak of the Greco-Italian War in October 1940, Perrikos requested to return to duty. His request was granted on 23 November 1940 and he was forwarded to the front.
In June 1941, Perrikos was a founding member of the "Army of Enslaved Victors" (Στρατιά Σκλαβωμένων Νικητών, SSN), one of the first resistance groups to spring up after Greece was overrun by the Germans in April 1941. Dissatisfied by the SSN's neutrality on the crucial issue of the post-war regime in Greece (monarchy or republic), Perrikos and a number of others split off to form the "Panhellenic Union of Fighting Youths" (Πανελλήνιος Ένωσις Αγωνιζόμενων Νέων, PEAN). PEAN had a leftist political orientation, strongly opposed any return of the monarchy and insisted on active struggle against the occupying forces.
ESPO bombingEdit
PEAN's most spectacular act of sabotage was the bombing of the collaborationist ESPO headquarters on 20 September 1942. ESPO (Ελληνική Σοσιαλιστική Πατριωτική Οργάνωσις, Hellenic Socialist Patriotic Organization) was the largest Greek National-Socialist organization. ESPO was trying to recruit volunteers for a "Greek Legion" to fight in the Eastern Front alongside the Germans.[2]
ESPO was housed in a four-storey building located on the corner of Gladstonos and Patission streets in central Athens. Sabotaging it was a challenging feat as the building also accommodated the headquarters of the German Secret Field Police in Athens and the surrounding area was frequented by locals. The bombing operation was planned and executed by Perrikos and three others, namely Antonis Mytilinaios, Spyros Galatis and Ioulia Bimba. They prepared a 12 kgr dynamite bomb, which they smuggled and planted underneath ESPO's offices.[3] Approximately 40 ESPO members and 6 Germans were wounded, many of which lethally. The attack was widely publicized and praised by Allied radio stations, and marked the end of the ESPO and of German attempts to recruit Greeks into the Wehrmacht. Other Greek resistance organizations like EAM reacted with skepticism, attributing the bombing to a provocation by the Gestapo.
Execution and aftermathEdit
On 11 November 1942 Perrikos and 12 of his partners were arrested after being betrayed. One month later, he was court marshaled and sentenced three times to death and to 15 years of imprisonment. He was executed by firing squad on 4 February 1943 at Kaisariani.[4]
Perrikos was posthumously promoted to the rank of Wing Commander. On 2 September 1987, a bronze bust of Perrikos was unveiled near the ESPO building in Gladstonos street.

Jeremiah 18:1-4 – The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it. (KJV)
Shortly after I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour, I was going through an extremely difficult period in my life. The pot that was my life had been formed and fired, but it had imperfections that had to be corrected. It was then that I wrote "My Trip Back To The Potter's House".
Dear Diary,
The Lord has spoken to me and told me to "arise and go down to the Potter's house." Notice that He said "down". Mountaintops are up, victories are up, but the road to the Potter's house is always down.
I really don't want to go, and I don't even know if I can. Remember, Diary, the first time that I had some surgery done on me, back at the Potter's house, I went without hesitating. Now, I'm already dying inside, for I know what is in store for me, down at the Potter's house. At that place, construction goes on.
The Potter has cut me before, but now it would truly begin to hurt, because the deeper he cuts and grinds, the more it hurts. It's like a splinter, Diary: if it's only in the top layer of skin, then there is no problem, but the deeper it is, the more pain is inflicted to have it removed.
Hard callous scales are ground off and chipped away. Spirits are crushed, and hearts are broken. No, I can't bear any more. Already, I feel in my heart that I will refuse to go.
The invitation is for me to "arise and go". It's my choice. I don't have to worry; God won't physically carry me down there. He won't force me to go, kicking and screaming. The choice is mine.
Now, what are my alternatives? I can turn back, run, just forget it all, and admit that I wasn't cut out for this type of work. Or I can stay right where I'm at. After all, I'm not totally useless to the Lord.
Luke 9:62 keeps going through my mind, where Jesus says, "No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God." (KJV) I know that if I just stay the same, I will become stagnant, like water that is drawn and left uncared for. If I choose to remain the same, it will be the same thing as saying, "Forget it all and turn back", for in time, that is exactly what will happen.
Dear Diary,
I am at the Potter's house now. The journey down here was almost as difficult as having the Potter actually do the grinding. But as the cutting goes on and the Potter shapes me as His vessel, He holds me even more tightly inside, and He says, "Oh my, how I love you!"
The Potter isn't finished with me yet, for this is extremely intricate work, and my Father knows only perfection. Praise God! He is a good God, a faithful God, a God that we can trust. We need not fear His plans for us.
Prayer: Jesus, thank You for the opportunities, however difficult they may be, to be conformed to Your image. May it be our desire to be pliable in Your hands. We love You, Lord. In Your name, we pray. Amen.
Jeremiah 18:1-4 – The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it. (KJV)
Thanks for the encouragement, Cheryl.
Well done. I have a good friend in Mesa!
Excellent piece, Cheryl. Write some more!
Thanks for sharing this devotional with us. Blessings.
Thank you for sharing this thought provoking devotional with us. Blessings.
Lovely, and very meaningful, thank you.
A beautiful testimony, Cheryl. Thank you for sharing your heart and your trust in the Potter.
Thank you for this devotional! It really speaks to my heart and gives me a new perspective on Jeremiah.
Hi Cheryl,
I would love to have a writing partner who lives nearby.
This devotional is really different.
I find the ones coming out of this USA quite different. I can usually tell before I even look.
Cheryl – I have not seen any of your devotionals before, but I hope this will not be the last. Thank you for sharing the pain and ultimately the growth that the Holy Spirit brought you through trials. God Bless you.
Yes, He loves us too much to leave us where we're at, doesn't He?
I can so identify with what you wrote here and just wanted to thank you for sharing this truth. I found it very encouraging.
Thank you, Cheryl, for sharing something of your life with us.
The Potter is not finished with any of us yet. He chooses to continue making the clay more beautiful.
May you rest in peace in the loving hands of the loving Potter, who gave his life for us, yet lives forever.
Our Lord says, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not be afraid (John 14:27).
Keep writing.
Welcome to the "Writers Guild" (my sentiment only) and thank you for your frank and honest account of your pilgrimage to your "Potter's House". We all have one and must obey God's urges to go there. With me it was an something which had to be removed, and with my wife it is cancer.
But, no matter how gloomy the path ahead seems to be, the promise that Jesus made at the end of Matthew's Gospel still holds, thanks be to God!
Blessings to you this day and always.
Dear Cheryl:
I just wanted to 'Thank You' for your contribution to the PresbyCan Daily Devotional. I can honestly relate to what you wrote. Going DOWN to the Potter's Wheel.
I know that all Christians face challenges in their lives, but when I go through them I think I am the only person in this whole wide world feeling the way I do.
I know I look back, instead of leaving the past behind.
I struggle with putting my complete trust in God, the big reason being that I see God as a man and most men in my life have {I feel} not supported me and let me down.
God has been so good to me, I know, and people all around me have seen how He has provided for me. I could not have gone through the above without God walking beside me.
God is good.
I pray that God will Bless you and Heal you.
Thank you again.
Thanks Cheryl,
This topic always has special meaning for me.
Hi Cheryl
Good devotional. I love that story of Jeremiah going to the potter to see how something bad can be remolded and restored, Which is my sermon for this Sunday actually, quite a coincidence I would say Thank you for writing.
Hello dear Cheryl,
I got the chance to read another powerful from you the other day and it was about your emotional trip down to the Potter's House. Your articles are always beautifully chosen and uniquely written, wishing you the best in your writing.
Happy Independence Day,
(Saudi Arabia)

The beautiful Velavadar Black Buck Sanctuary covers only 34 square kilometres and is characterised by semi-arid grassland. Although this makes up the majority of the vegetation, there are smaller areas of shrub land, saline land and mudflats. This sanctuary, also known as the Black Buck National Park is situated along the Gulf of Khambhat in the Bhavnagar District of Gujarat, an official state in India. It is also flanked by two rivers, which play a major role in the health and fertility of the soil. It is the only tropical grassland in all of India to be named a National Park.
The Velavadar Black Buck Sanctuary was established in 1976 and was once the grassland of Bhavnagar's Maharaja, where his valuable cattle grazed and roamed the plains. At first, it only covered some 18 square kilometres. Then, in 1980, it was extended to its current area.The flat, grassy meadows are the ideal habitats for the abundance of wildlife species that have made this their home. As its name implies, this park is especially committed to the preservation and protection of the Black Buck. However, it extends
Because of its proximity to the salty waters of the gulf, this area is often flooded during the monsoon season. The combination of semi-arid conditions and salty floods actually creates the perfect place for some species of plants and animals. In addition to the Black Buck, wolves and Lesser Floricans, Velavadar is also home to jackals, foxes, Sand Grouse, porcupines, Jungle Cats, eagles, Harriers, Houbara Bustards, wild pigs and hares.
The monsoon season ends in about mid-June of each year, and visitors are encouraged to see the park and its abundance of life between this time and the end of March, when winter begins. Between December and March, birds from miles around migrate to this sanctuary for the winter. Avian enthusiasts are advised to make a trip during this time to see the wonders of creation come alive.
The Bhavnagar Airport is the closest one to the park, and conducts daily flights to Mumbai and Ahmedabad, both of which have international airports. The park is equipped with accommodation, making it convenient for visitors from all over the world. There is also an interpretation centre where tourists can learn much about the plants, birds and wildlife of the Velavadar Black Buck Sanctuary

Get a Hammer for only 10,000 pennies ($100) to celebrate reaching 10,000 feet above sea level
This weekend, we took the Hammer up in a skydiving jump plane and tested it's ability to function at higher elevations. The Official Hammer Vaporizer Altitude Test was a huge success and we are excited to announce that we can verify first-hand that the Hammer continued to function at altitudes as high as 10,000 feet above sea level.
To celebrate reaching 10,000 feet, we are offering the special price of 10,000 pennies ($100) for the FIRST 10 PEOPLE that purchase the Hammer using this link. That's $40 off the full retail price!
The performance of the Hammer and other butane powered vaporizers at higher elevations was a topic up for debate in the official Hammer Vaporizer thread on Fuckcumbustion.com. Although Vapor Movement Blog professed to have tested the Hammer up to 10,000 feet above sea level, it was important for us to be able to verify this claim with total certainty so we could assure our Colorado friends and others around the world that the Hammer was going to work above 6000 feet.
It was suggested we find a local skydiver and get them to take it up with them and test it on the ascent during a jump. We decided to take it one step further and actually rent a seat on the jump plane. Not only did the Hammer work above 6000 feet, it continued to function without fault until over 10,000 feet.
Please keep in mind we were not testing vaporization at these altitudes, as the owner of the plane would not have approved doing so, we were only testing the Hammer's ability to ignite the butane powered flame.
We will be posting a video as soon as we have time to edit down the 40+ minutes or so of footage (which also includes pretty sweet footage of two guys jumping from the plane during the test) into a shorter video, but in the meantime, here are some pics and results from the Official Hammer Vaporizer Altitude Test:
We tested at Fly Free Skydiving in Festus, Missouri. Great people, you can check out their website at http://www.flyfreeskydiving.com/
The plane. It's even smaller than it looks if that's possible. Seats pilot and four people packed in like sardines. I still have a cramp in my leg.
Skydiver coming in while we're waiting. She was celebrating her 60th birthday by jumping for the first time with her daughters and grand kids watching from the ground.
Door swings open. I say "Holy Shit!". Two guys bail.
Hammer ignites like a champ at 5970 feet AGL. Denver here we come!
Hammer still working at 9,600 feet AGL. Skiers and snowboarders all over the world cheer with joy (okay, I made the last part up).
A few notes about the test:
- The purpose of the test was to determine if the butane would ignite and burn at high altitudes, so we decided to remove the heat exchanger so it could be clearly seen when the flame was and wasn't igniting. The pictures below show the top of the Hammer glowing red when lit. This glowing DOES NOT occur during normal use. When the heat exchanger is in the Hammer, the flame is in direct contact with it and does not heat up the metal vent on the top as it did during the test. The heat exchanger being present will not in any way affect whether or not the butane will ignite, it only puts it in the direct path of the flame, rather than the top vent.
- The cabin of the plane was not pressurized at any time, in fact there was a opening the size of my fist in the right door of the plane. We were assured the air inside the plane at any given moment was ambient air and the level of oxygen in the air was basically the same as it would be standing on the ground at the same elevation. We tested the entire time during ascent and did a full circle at 9,600 feet AGL and at 6000 feet AGL on the way down, so there was ample time to test at both altitudes.
- On the highest setting, the Hammer was still working at 9,600 feet AGL, although on lower settings it was getting spotty and not igniting as easily. It's possible it could work at even higher altitudes, but we are more than happy saying that the maximum suggested functional altitude is 10k feet above sea level. If anyone takes it higher than that and get's it to work, we would love to hear the story.

How to discover the local countryside without a car?
It's no secret that the most beautiful and unspoiled locations in the country are the hardest to get to. Does it mean that without a car you're stuck in the city for the summer? Fear not, with a little bit of the insider's knowledge on the public transport and obscure bike routes, you'll be able to go on adventures wherever your feet carry you and score some extra sustainability points.
1. Hop on a ride in the Mendip Xplorer
Bus 376 aka the Mendip Explorer passes the scenic countryside south from Bristol and stops at famous historic towns of Wells and Glastonbury.
2. Discover Kennet and Avon Canal by train
I'm sure that you've already heard of (if not visited) Bath – it's only 15 mins ride on a train from Bristol Temple Meads. Why don't you try staying on the train for a few more stops and getting off at the pretty canal towns like Freshford or Bradford-on-Avon?
3. Discover secret cycling routes with Better By Bike planner
Once you have a bicycle, the possibilities are endless... from Ashton Court or Leigh Woods located 2 miles from the city centre to the exciting locations further afield (have you heard the beautiful Arboretum in Westonbirt? It's a 20 miles cycle away!)
If you don't have your own bike, you can always rent one (You've probably seen the yellow Yo Bikes around the city…) Finally, taking your bike on a train is a great option for taking your adventure to a next level! We recommend booking a bike reservation to make sure there is space for your bike left!

Outdoor Landscaping Ideas For Beginners
Landscaping can do more than increase property values. It can reduce energy use and clean air and water while providing wildlife habitat and connecting people to nature. There are several ideas of landscaping for the beginners. Here are some of them. Before purchasing a single new plant, plot your site on graph paper to scale, including the house and both established and proposed entryways, walkways, decks, patios and porches. Notice landscape areas that you'll view from indoors, windows can "frame" pleasing garden compositions. Your first rough sketches evolve into more refined plans as you reject some ideas and adopt others. Every site has its peculiarities that can influence plant choice and placement such as slopes, boulders or pockets where water collects. Also, native soil may have been replaced with fill dirt during the home's building process. Be prepared to adjust surface features and amend existing soil with purchased top soil if necessary. Grouping plants of similar sun exposure and water needs together makes for resource-efficient landscape design, saving both money and labor in the long term.
Set various moods in your landscaping by creating garden rooms for outdoor living. Bright flowers and foliage suggest festivity around pool, play and outdoor dining areas. An arbor bench or swing surrounded with fragrant, pastel bloomers invite reading or quiet conversation. Arrange a collection of groomed evergreens around a few well-placed boulders for a meditation garden. Consider creating a water-wise garden insectary with native and adapted exotic plants.
Landscaping Small Backyard With Wooden Bench
Landscaping often starts with laying out pathways, and building up from there to create a lush environment which may include fountains, pools, benches, gazebos, stone retaining walls, and other features.
Landscaping Backyard With Pathway And Green Grasses
Landscaping is often considered as an investment of time, energy and money.
Landscaping With Shrubs And Using Bird House
Landscaping is about increasing the aesthetic value of spaces by furnishing them with paving, and other structures for outdoor activities.
Landscaping With Potted Plants
Landscaping Backyard With Shrubs
Landscaping is the process of improving the look of a particular piece of land by planting shrubbery, flowers, grass and/or trees on it.
Landscaping With Wooden Border And Rocks
Landscape is more than just scenery: it is the interaction between people and place; the bedrock upon which our society is built

A 12-month trial of a ``footpath courtesy zone'' is being proposed by the Dunedin City Council for the footpaths along George and Princes Sts from Albany St to Rattray St.
A 15kmh speed limit would be voluntary and there would be no penalties for people found breaking it.
It would also apply to skateboards and other non-motorised scooters.
Councillors will vote on whether to adopt the proposal at a full council meeting on Tuesday.
The move was prompted by a request from councillors frustrated at the lack of enforcement tools available to them.
Council community services manager Simon Pickford said while the courtesy zone lacked ``teeth'' he hoped it would lead to self-enforcement and public-enforcement.
If successful, the courtesy zones could be extended to other busy pedestrian areas, Mr Pickford said.
At this stage there were no plans to ask Lime, which has 700 e-scooters in the city, to use geo-fencing technology to automatically restrict speed in the area, as the Auckland Council had done.
Measures could be developed as the trial progressed, he said.
A review of the council's mobile trading bylaw was also under way which aimed to provide greater controls over the use of e-scooters.
Any revised bylaw was expected to come into force about March next year.
Another e-scooter company, Singapore based Beam, had formally contacted the council about possibly operating in city, but had not given a launch date, he said.
Lime New Zealand public affairs manager Lauren Mentjox said the company supported the plan and had a good working relationship with the council.
Since the service was launched in January more than 300,000 trips had been made by more than 52,000 riders and the number of private e-scooters had also increased.
'A 15kmh speed limit would be voluntary and there would be no penalties for people found breaking it.' So, a waste of time then. Lime should be the ones made to pay for infringements which they could then recover from their tracked client. Failure to pay would mean the client would no longer have access to the scooters. Simple and effective enforcement would be best practice and desirable from a company whose claim is 'Safety is our number one priority'. By the way, a direct hit from a scooter travelling at 15k and carrying a 100 kilo rider could still have serious consequences for any innocent pedestrian going about their business by walking on a city pavement.
Another pointless exercise from the DCC. When are they going to grasp the nettle and ban these things from the pavements before someone gets badly injured?
We have miles of unused and pointless cycle paths; make them use them and keep them away from pedestrians.
I love how they zip around at break neck speed. It's as if the Green Party issued a license to kill (pedestrians). The hypocrazy has not been un noticed. Along with the empty green bike highways, resembling somewhat human meat grinders. Madness.

Harry Enjoys Violin Masterclass with Tasmin Little
Harry L'Estrange, a Form 3 pupil at St John's College School in Cambridge, has just enjoyed an amazing opportunity to take part in a violin masterclass at Uppingham School with Tasmin Little OBE.
Tasmin, the world-renowned violinist and one of the pre-eminent performers of her generation, gave the masterclass to pupils of Grade 8 level and above. Harry, whose full name is Harry Watson Forbes L'Estrange, was named after his great grandfather, the famous viola player Watson Forbes.
Director of Music, Simon Kirk, explained, "Harry worked on the first two movements of Handel's lovely D Major Sonata with Tasmin, and, at the end of his session, was asked by her which is his favourite piece to play. Harry's answer was the Bach Double Violin Concerto, and so naturally they gave an impromptu performance of the first movement together! This was in itself an extraordinary opportunity and one which will provide life-long memories."
Harry added: "I actually jumped out of my skin when she asked if she could play it with me. It was also quite funny when she asked me which violin part I played in the piece. It was the same part as she did so she said "that's fine – I'll sightread the Violin 2 part" and it sounded amazing, no mistakes at all! I was so lucky to play with such an incredible, fantastic and all round really nice character!"
What a great achievement Harry! Perhaps you'll be following in Tasmin's footsteps and get to perform on every continent in some of the most prestigious venues in the world such as Carnegie Hall, Musikverein, Concertgebouw, Philmarmonie Berlin, Vienna Konserthaus, London's South Bank Centre, Barbican Centre and the Royal Albert Hall, and Lincoln Center and Suntory Hall

PEN Canada's Writers in Prison Committee (WiPC) strongly protests the life sentence pronounced on January 24, 2013 against the writer, sociologist and feminist, Piınar Selek. Despite three previous acquittals for her alleged involvement in an explosion in an Istanbul market more than 14 years ago, Selek was retried, in absentia, in December 2012. Detained for two and a half years before being freed pending trial, Selek currently lives abroad. Turkish authorities have now issued a warrant for her arrest.
The explosion at the Istanbul Spice Bazaar led to the deaths of seven people and injured 127 others. Selek was arrested in July 1998, and freed two and a half years later after a team of experts concluded that the explosion had not been caused by a bomb, but by the accidental ignition of a gas cylinder. Despite the findings, the case against Selek and her co-defendants continued. In December 2005 a new trial was ordered. This ended with an acquittal in June 2006.
In March 2009, the Court of Appeals requested a review of the case and reversed the acquittal. This went to consideration, and in May 2009 Selek was acquitted for a second time. In February 2010, the Court of Appeals objected again, and sent the case for review once more. The lower court refused to conduct a review on the grounds that the acquittal was legitimately and fairly given, and in February 2011 it upheld Selek's acquittal for a third time. However, at a 22 November 2012 hearing, the lower court decided to drop its refusal and proceed with reopening the trial against Selek on grounds that the refusal had been 'contrary to procedure'. The first hearing of the reopened trial was heard on December 13, 2012 at the Çağlayan Courts of Justice, with all five suspects in the case being tried in absentia.
Commentators believe the renewed prosecution of Selek is linked to her work as a sociologist researching Kurdish issues in the mid-to-late 1990s, and to contact with the banned Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK). According to PEN sources, no evidence has been presented that shows Selek to have been a member of the PKK or to have engaged in violent activities. It is widely believed that she is being pursued through the courts as a means of penalising her for legitimate research and commentary. These concerns are intensified by the allegations that Selek, during her imprisonment from 1998-2000, suffered torture under investigation in an attempt to make her confess to the charges.

Today was a good day. I was so happy to stop by the house while the tapers were there. I had caught them working yesterday, taking over where the sheetrockers had left off, but was without my camera. I was thrilled to see the ceiling up and it made the whole space feel light and spacious. And, how fun to watch them move around on those stilts! So, I was really glad I was prepared to take a few shots today. And there's no better way to break the ice than getting out a camera.
Seriously, these guys were hams, and so super friendly. I swear, the people I have met so far working on my house project are incredibly personable and appear to be very happy!
A little off subject (of home renovation), but in keeping with my "Minnesota Nice" post, here's a pic I took yesterday evening:
If we can't enjoy the inside of the house yet, at least the kids can take advantage of our new yard!

I am black on the outside, clad in a wrinkled cover,
Yet within I bear a burning marrow.
I season delicacies, the banquets of kings, and the luxuries of the table,
Both the sauces and the tenderized meats of the kitchen.
But you will find in me no quality of any worth,
Unless your bowels have been rattled by my gleaming marrow.
– 7th century riddle
The trail of peppercorns can be found scattered throughout human history, back to antiquity and beyond. This tiny black berry has been a currency, a reason for the Age of Discovery and a cause of national conflict, and today is found universally, in every pantry and on every dining table. From its native home on the Monsoon coast of India, it has come to be grown all over the world, in a dazzling array of varieties. It is prized for its warm, spicy flavour and also for its medicinal properties, and remains the world's most traded spice.
Peppercorns were known in ancient Greece, where they were probably a luxury enjoyed only by the rich and ruling classes. They became more widely available when the Romans established a trade route between India and the Mediterranean, and soon became an immensely valuable commodity. By the early Middle Ages pepper was so valued it was being used as currency or collateral, so much so that the word entered the Dutch language as an expression of worth (peperduur, meaning something very expensive). There was much conflict in these times between rivals seeking to control the trade, which in Europe came to be monopolized by Italian powers. City states such as Genoa and Venice were literally built upon the proceeds of the pepper trade.
It is said that pepper was used in these times to mask the flavour of spoiled meat, and it is true that pepper is present in many pickling and preserving methods. However it is likely that this is as much to do with pepper's flavour properties, being strong enough to enhance even the blandest of foods. It was also much prized for health reasons, considered as a remedy for ailments from constipation to gangrene and even toothache. Today it is still widely used in traditional Indian ayurvedic medicine.
By the 14th century the desire for pepper, along with other spices, led the Dutch and the Portuguese to seek new routes to Asia, and as a result led to the discovery of the Americas by Europeans. When Vasco da Gama first sailed round the Cape of Good Hope to India, he was asked his reasons for making the journey; 'We have come seeking Christians and pepper,' he replied.
As the spice trade grew, pepper's value decreased, but it remained the most traded spice, a position it still holds today – it makes up some 20% of all spice imports.
Nowadays the largest producer of peppercorns is Vietnam, and it is also grown in such countries as Malaysia, Indonesia, Madagascar and Brazil. However the highest quality pepper is generally agreed to come from the Malabar coast of India, specifically the state of Kerala. In the district of Wynad, on the foothills of the Western Ghat mountains, the berry is ripened on the vine before being hand-picked, a unique process when all other peppers are picked before ripening. Wynad is known as the champagne of the peppercorn world, considered to have more flavour and depth than any other.
Peppercorns are available in various colours, and although the same plant, they have very different qualities.
Black pepper, the most widely used form, is the whole berry including its skin, dried to give the familiar wrinkled appearance. It is pungent and aromatic, with a pleasant and not overpowering heat. It is used as a seasoning and is an important part of a vast range of dishes. No other spice can match this versatility.
White pepper on the other hand is simply the seed of the plant, with the outer layer removed. This gives it a different flavour profile, more subtle as it is lacking in many of the oils and aromas present only in the skin of the berry. It is commonly used in creamy dishes, and especially mashed potatoes, due to its colour blending in with them.
Green pepper, like black, is made from the unripe berries, which are green on the vine. The difference is that green pepper is treated in various ways to retain the green colour, such as freeze-drying or canning. Pickling also performs this function. Fresh peppercorns of course retain the green colour and these are used extensively in Thai cuisine. Their flavour is fresher, with more zing and usually less heat, than black or white.
Pink peppercorns are one of the 'false flag' peppers, as they are the fruits of a different family, the Peruvian pepper tree. They do however blend very well when combined with the true peppers, their milder and more floral notes creating a delicious balance. They are seldom used alone, and are commonly added to mixes for the peppermill.
Other 'false flag' peppers include Sichuan pepper, Allspice (Jamaican pepper) and Japanese Sancho pepper. They are all fairly similar in appearance to true pepper, and tend to share the properties of heat which pepper has, but the fact they have taken on the name of a different spice only serves to emphasise the cultural, culinary and economic importance that a wrinkled black ball has had upon the world, a berry which came to be the true King of Spices.

Call of Duty: WWII
Publisher: Activision
Developer: Sledgehammer Games
Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, PC
Grand Theft Auto 5 meanwhile spends its 225th consecutive week in the top 40.
Posted By Ravi Sinha | On 08th, Jan. 2018 Under News
The last few months have been very interesting for game sales in the UK. As per Chart-Track, Call of Duty: WW2 spent nine straight weeks on top, equaling the record set by Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. It was on its way to beating it but unfortunately, FIFA 18 has unseated it as the top-selling game at UK physical retail.
Call of Duty: WW2 is still in second place so it's not all bad news. Meanwhile, Grand Theft Auto 5 has set its own record at third place, having been in the top 40 charts for 225 weeks straight. If that weren't enough, 85 percent of its time has been spent in the top 10.
Assassin's Creed Origins is in fourth place followed by Star Wars Battlefront 2, The Sims 4 and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in fifth, sixth and seventh respectively. PUBG's re-entry into the top 10 is via the physical Xbox One version and despite launch issues, it still managed to place seventh. The rest of the charts consist of Super Mario Odyssey, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Forza Motorsport 7.

Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex by nested polymerase chain reaction in pulmonary and extrapulmonary specimens
Detecção do complexo Mycobacterium tuberculosis por nested polymerase chain reaction em espécimes pulmonares e extrapulmonares
Adriana Antônia da Cruz Furini, Heloisa da Silveira Paro Pedro, Jean Francisco Rodrigues, Lilian Maria Lapa Montenegro, Ricardo Luiz Dantas Machado, Célia Franco, Haiana Charifker Schindler, Ida Maria Foschiani Dias Batista, Andrea Regina Baptista Rossit
J Bras Pneumol.2013;39(6):711-718Abstract PDF PT PDF EN Portuguese Text
Objective: To compare the performance of nested polymerase chain reaction (NPCR) with that of cultures in the detection of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in pulmonary and extrapulmonary specimens. Methods: We analyzed 20 and 78 pulmonary and extrapulmonary specimens, respectively, of 67 hospitalized patients suspected of having tuberculosis. An automated microbial system was used for the identification of Mycobacterium spp. cultures, and M. tuberculosis IS6110 was used as the target sequence in the NPCR. The kappa statistic was used in order to assess the level of agreement among the results. Results: Among the 67 patients, 6 and 5, respectively, were diagnosed with pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis, and the NPCR was positive in all of the cases. Among the 98 clinical specimens, smear microscopy, culture, and NPCR were positive in 6.00%, 8.16%, and 13.26%, respectively. Comparing the results of NPCR with those of cultures (the gold standard), we found that NPCR had a sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 83%, respectively, in pulmonary specimens, compared with 83% and 96%, respectively, in extrapulmonary specimens, with good concordance between the tests (kappa, 0.50 and 0.6867, respectively). Conclusions: Although NPCR proved to be a very useful tool for the detection of M. tuberculosis complex, clinical, epidemiological, and other laboratory data should also be considered in the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis.

Auger Loizeau: Smell+ This project explores the human experiential potential of the sense of smell, applying contemporary scientific research in a range of domestic and social contexts.
The current low status of smell is a result of the revaluation of the senses by philosophers and scientists of the 18th and 19th centuries. Smell was considered lower order, primitive, savage and bestial. Smell is the one sense where control is lost, each intake of breath sends loaded air molecules over the receptors in the nose and in turn potentially gutteral, uncensored information to the brain. At the same time our bodies are emitting, loading the air around us and effecting others in ways we are only now starting to understand. loading... Smell control system description Diagnosis of illness by smell Dog smelling for cancerous cells Cooking calibration through smell Momentum has recently been gathering in smell related research.
Wellbeing This area is closely related to health but could be viewed as 1. 1. 1. 1. Olfaction: The Sense of Smell. Each olfactory neuron expresses only a single type of receptor.
Some evidence: Gene probes for a single type of receptor bind to only 1 in a 1000 sensory neurons in a normal olfactory epithelium. However, rats made to express a single type of receptor in large numbers of their olfactory neurons responded much more vigorously to a single type of odorant than to any of the other 73 tested.

Memento. Glass Petal Smoke: What Does Your Sense of Smell Mean to You? Many people feel self-conscious when it comes to talking about their sense of smell.
Though objectivity is highly valued in our culture the realm of the senses is subjective. There are no wrong answers when it comes to personal sensory impressions; feelings and emotions count. It's easy to understand this concept in principal, but until you experience it for yourself what you've just read is simply a notion. Glass Petal Smoke has designed a sensory questionnaire to help readers get more comfortable talking about their sense of taste and smell.

Accademia - Lorenzo Villoresi - Made in Italy perfumes Florence.
Florence, the city of "Genius" par excellence and launch pad for a multitude of cultural innovations, will soon house a unique and extraordinary centre, the first of its kind, dedicated to the world of Perfume and Fragrances, as wished for by Lorenzo and Ludovica Villoresi.
This "Museum of Scent" will make it possible to get close to this fascinating and sometimes mysterious world, via a journey through the senses which will stimulate our deepest emotions and bring them to the surface. In the ancient family Palace in Via de' Bardi 12, born from the union of two pre-existing 15th century houses, Lorenzo Villoresi has created his very own "wunderkammer" - a highly accessible and inviting place, open to the world and all those who seek, through the senses, their own inner peace and tranquillity. Art Scents: Perfume, Design and Olfactory Art. Claims that perfumes are art have been made before, but a recent art museum exhibit of a dozen perfumes under the title 'The Art of Scent' has raised the issue with a new insistence, although with an absence of theoretical justification.
Part 1 of the paper develops an aesthetic case for perfume as an art form by answering Beardsley's and Scruton's arguments against odours (and implicitly perfumes) as the basis for aesthetic objects and works of art. Part 1 concludes that perfumes can in fact manifest the required structure, temporality, symbolism and expressivity for art status. Part 2, on the other hand, develops a contextualist case against perfumes as works of fine art by analyzing a typical contemporary art practice involving a perfume and arguing that, by contrast, typical perfumery practices lack crucial elements required to make perfume an art form and that perfume should be considered one of the design arts. 1.

Brenda, who has lived in Bressingham since 1965 will soon be leaving to be near her son Martyn and his family in Devon. A secret collection had been made for her and she was presented with a broach, flowers and gardening tokens. As well as Diana, one of the churchwardens, saying a few words, Ted Curson the tower captain also expressed his thanks to the Oates family for giving the money for the bell appeal which resulted in the magnificent set of bells the church now has. Six ringers, close the Brenda rang before the service and these included Julie Beasley whose late husband had been instrumental in getting the project off the ground. Brenda was very surprised and knew nothing about the presentation before the PCC were asked to go the the front of the church during the service.
Charlotte has lived in Diss for the last four years. She was brought up in Laxfield and her parents now live in Harleston and her sister lives in Fersfield.
Before her little girl Ava arrived 19 months ago, Charlotte worked for Rosemary and Thyme in Eye for five years. Before that she worked in Maryland in the US reschooling race horses.

A radioactive form of hydrogen that leaked from a Vermont nuclear plant into soil and groundwater has reached the nearby Connecticut River, state health officials said.
Water samples from the shoreline near the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant last month tested positive for small amounts of tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen that's been linked to cancer when ingested in large amounts, said State Department of Health Commissioner Dr. Harry Chen.

The samples were taken July 18 and 25 at the shoreline, about 100 feet from the nearest extraction well, which has been withdrawing contaminated water from the ground for several months.
The level of tritium in the samples was measured at 534 and 611 picocuries per liter, just above the lower limit of detection.
Gov. Peter Shumlin said he wants more wells to pull contaminated water from the ground on the Vermont Yankee site.
Tritium has leaked from nuclear plants around the country. It's particularly problematic for Vermont Yankee as it seeks to renew its license.
New Orleans-based plant owner Entergy Corp. is suing Vermont in federal court over the state's efforts to shut the plant down.

Narcotic pain medication (e.g. Demerol, Morphine, Stadol) is often given during early labor to mitigate pain and help mothers relax. With IV administration, these medications are safe to use because they wear off quickly. However, if labor accelerates and the baby is born quickly, the baby's breathing may be depressed by the narcotic.
After delivery, epidurals may result in a mother's temporary loss of movement or inability to pass urine. Headaches and difficulty breastfeeding after epidural anesthesia may also occur. Additional complications include dizziness, seizures, and — if the drug enters the spinal fluid —difficulty breathing. Permanent nerve injury, paralysis, and meningitis (infection of the fluid surrounding the spinal cord) are rare complications of an epidural. Nevertheless, they can occur.
While rare, some patients are genetically predisposed to bad anesthesia reactions. If you had a poor reaction (such as a severe spike in blood pressure), your anesthesiologist or other healthcare providers may not have thoroughly investigated your patient history — a crucial step in ensuring your health and safety.
Our skilled Baltimore birth injury lawyers are seasoned litigators, with no fear of taking your case all the way to trial. When insurance companies, law firms, and hospitals hear that we are representing their former patients, they know to expect a fight.
