Danbury, Conn. (January 9, 2013) — Danbury's Promise for Children Partnership today announced grant support for implementing its community plan for early childhood literacy programming. Discovery grants are funded by the William Caspar Graustein Memorial Fund, the Children's Fund of Connecticut, and the Connecticut State Department of Education. This grant will help to ensure all children in Danbury, regardless of race and income level, are ready for school by age five and prepared to be successful learners by age nine.
"Danbury's children benefit greatly when everyone works together to create an early childhood system--one in which schools, childcare providers, businesses and the health community partner to prepare children for success in school. Underlying this system is a deep understanding that parents are their children's first and most important role models and teachers," said Caroline LaFleur, Coordinator Danbury's Promise for Children Partnership. "This grant from the William Caspar Graustein Memorial Fund is helping us build a city where all children have the chance for a great start in life."
The goal of Discovery is to create an early childhood system that ensures optimal healthy development leading to early learning success for Connecticut children of all races and income levels. Discovery supports communities in establishing collaborative structures in which parents are full partners. Each community creates and implements its own community plan. Advocates and other stakeholders work to improve policy and practice at the local and state levels. Across Connecticut, 52 communities focus on improving the quality of and access to early care and education for children from birth through age five, improving the quality of PreK-3 education in ways that increase early language and literacy development among all children, improving young children's health and social/emotional development, and increasing local and statewide capacity to measure and continue improvements.
Danbury's Promise for Children Partnership, launched in 2007, serves as a local resource for children from birth to age eight and their families. The Partnership seeks to engage parents in their child's early childhood education – birth through age eight, and in taking leadership roles within the community on behalf of all children.
In Danbury, funds have been used to reach out to parents to connect them to the resources they need to support their families and to help parents understand the importance of early literacy and learning. Community outreach efforts include the distribution of Directories of Resources for Danbury Families in English and Spanish, parent workshops on early learning, and an early childhood community fair. Danbury's Promise for Children Partnership also funded a study that shows how School Readiness Programs in Danbury are closing the Achievement Gap.
"Discovery communities are building on their own local resources to develop an early childhood system that reflects the needs and values of the community," said David M. Nee, Executive Director, William Caspar Graustein Memorial Fund. "We are pleased to support local collaborative councils, along with our state partners, with both funding and training, so that children of all races and income levels can become successful learners."
"For children to succeed in school, attention to their health and social-emotional development beginning at birth, is essential," said Judith Meyers, President and CEO of the Children's Fund of Connecticut and its nonprofit subsidiary the Child Health and Development Institute (CHDI). "We are pleased to help community collaboratives address early child health in all aspects of their work and engage health providers along with others to optimize the chances for children's success in school and in life."
Grants from the William Caspar Graustein Memorial Fund to Discovery communities across the state are made possible by partnerships with the State Department of Education, Children's Fund of Connecticut, the Annie E. Casey Foundation and the Connecticut Center for School Change.
William Caspar Graustein Memorial Fund's Discovery initiative offers grants and capacity building to 52 communities and six statewide partners. Capacity building is currently available in the areas of collaboration, parent engagement, results-based accountability, community planning and decision-making, and facilitative leadership.

bark is yummy!nice people and great treats. |
Fun Stuff, but the prices and service are lacking.This tiny store has great leashes, collars, toys and treats, but don't expect low prices. You can find most of the same treats and toys - and a wider variety of natural foods at Crown Hill Pet Supply - for a lot less expensive. The women that run Bark are pretty nice, but I have had more than one occasion where the male member of the staff has been snooty, dismissive, and downright rude - beginning with the time that my husband and I went there to obtain everything we needed for our soon-to-arrive puppy. He dissed the breed of dog and made us feel we had defend our decision! He has definately cost Bark our regular business. Crown Hill Pet Supply has low prices, healthy, natural food, great treats and warm, friendly staff. |

SEATTLE — Canadian pipeline operators are considering expanding the pipeline that brings oil from the Alberta oil sands to Western British Columbia.
And we're not talking about your typical Alaska crude.
Right now the Trans Mountain pipeline moves 300,000 barrels of oil per day from the Alberta Oil Sands to an export terminal near Vancouver, B.C. If the Canadian government approves the proposed pipeline expansion that amount could almost triple.
More oil in the pipeline means more oil loaded onto large tanker ships and those ships will eventually head out the Strait of Juan De Fuca to the Pacific. Kinder Morgan is the company that owns the Trans Mountain pipeline. It says traffic could increase by up to 30 tankers per month.
That has environmentalists and coastal residents concerned. But here's the part that's even more concerning.
The stuff coming out of the Alberta Oil Sands is not your typical Alaska crude oil. Ron Goodman, a former employee of Imperial Oil, Exxon's subsidiary company in Canada, explains.
"It's quite thick. It's sort of a peanut butter. It's very, very heavy oil."
Goodman used to do environmental research and spill response planning for Imperial Oil. He's talking about a type of oil called Bitumen - that's the stuff coming out of the Alberta Oil Sands.
Bitumen is made up of carbon molecules, just like crude oil, but its molecules are much bigger and more complex.
That makes it more like peanut butter and less like jelly.
"And," Goodman adds, "if it spills on water it will tend to just form sort of heavy - almost like asphalt pavement type - mats. It will probably go to the bottom as little clumps."
That's different from a spill of crude oil. When crude spills it tends to float on the surface in what's called a sheen. Then responders corral that oil using boom and remove it with skimmers and pumps.
People in the Northwest haven't really had to deal with heavier oil that might sink.
Right now the Washington Department of Ecology doesn't know how much bitumen might be moving through the region's waters, or how it would affect the environment if there were a spill.
"Oil spills just in general concern us a whole bunch," says Curt Hart, a spokesman for the Department of Ecology. "But to have something that may not act like we would expect it to act and then not be able to respond well and have this thing be in our waters — that may represent a more dire threat than we anticipated, that's something that keeps us up at night."
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is putting together new models for oil spill responses and plans to add Bitumen to their list of products to study. But right now, they don't have a specific strategy for how to respond to this substance either.
Not all the tankers coming from British Columbia carry Bitumen. So the first question would be: how much of the thick heavy stuff is going through Washington waters?
That information isn't public information, says Frank Holmes, a spokesman for the Western States Petroleum Association.
"That is company-specific, competitive information that would not be publicly available," Holmes says.
Ok, so we don't know how much bitumen is being shipped through Washington waters. But there is evidence that bitumen can sink instead of floating on the surface like a normal oil spill. According to Frank Holmes, the oil companies he represents do not have specific spill response plans for Bitumen - that he's aware of.
"That's a question that I haven't really researched so I'm unfamiliar with that concept but certainly that's something that would be addressed."
Environment Canada is conducting research on bitumen. Washington doesn't have any spill response plans to specifically deal with this substance.
But in the deep waters of Puget Sound, oil that sinks to the bottom instead of floating on the surface presents a new cleanup challenge.

Now that I see other people mention the licorice thing I guess I can agree. I think it translated on my tongue as "watered down ginger." I'm too much of a wuss to eat straight up dried ginger (too spicy), but I really wanted more spice out of this tea.
16 Tasting Notes
The macadamia nuts add a nice buttery richness to this tea flavor.
Nothing about these ingredients made me think that I'd enjoy the flavor of this tea, but I was desperate to try it as natural sleep aid.
Relaxing, for sure. Tasty, surprise! Maybe once I learn more about teas I'll be able to explain it properly.
Smells like cookie dough. Doesn't taste like cookie dough. Won't be fooled by the vanilla aroma again.
No notes yet.
Had a sample in-store today. Seemed kinda weak, so maybe they steeped it wrong. Didn't strike me as "feisty" or anything special
Sour/tart finish. Too bitter for me, almost the way grapefruit can be.
Deep cranberry colored.
Glad this was only a sample. Not for me.
I'll admit that I tried this because I'm a chess fan, but hey, I usually succumb to David's Teas because I really appreciate the unique marketing anyway.
This smells SO good unbrewed, that I guess its not such a surprise it doesn't taste quite as delicious brewed. But I really enjoy it anyway, I've been drinking it all afternoon at work this week. I'm a sucker for coconut too. Solid, smooth tea.
No notes yet.
Mmm, just tried this sample even though I was leery about the Lavender. As a scent I'm not usually a fan. But the coconut makes this delightful. Probably helped that I under steeped it to minimize the flowery-ness
I can see why this is a Forever Favorite. I will have to pay closer attention to my next steep to provide specifics about the flavor, but i remember drinking the whole thing and happily deciding that I had found a keeper.
I probably over steeped this? I dunno, it's a nice black tea but not the knockout Read My Lips is. I'm not getting too much chocolate or strawberry "liquor" that others have mentioned. As a mildly fragrant, pleasant black, it will do.
Peachy and refreshing. If you aren't a fan of peach flavored/scented things than I wouldn't recommend this for you. It had savory undertones that kept the peach from feeling too perfume-y which I appreciate.
Was hoping for more orange than lemon, but lemon it is. I do not find the flower perfume appetizing in the slightest. The taste wasn't so bad, but just kind of meh, and the aroma is so flowery it put me off. Got this as a sample, so at least I'm not stuck with more!
I'm pretty sure I'm allergic to something in this tea, so I ended up giving it away. Too bad.
No notes yet.

how to convert graphical character to as400 characters using cl program only.
First, graphical characters already are "as400 characters". It's not clear what you mean. I'd guess that you mean that you want to be able to read values from some fields that have DBCS data (or a graphical CCSID) and you want to read the values using the system's normal national language character set.
What if your character set doesn't have characters that match the graphical characters?
Current releases of CL are capable of calling all of the conversion APIs that I've ever used. What is your operating system version?
Do you want CL to display converted data? Or do you want to copy graphical data from one table into a new table with converted characters?

New River Organic Growers (NROG): is a nonprofit cooperative of farmers located in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina. Our goal is to provide fresh produce and humanely raised meats to consumers in North Carolina, to help preserve farmland by improving the success of our own farms through the pooling of resources for marketing and transport, bulk purchasing of farming supplies, sharing and coordination of information, and to educate the general public about the benefits of sustainable, local farming and consumption.
NC Cooperative Extension Watauga and Ashe Centers provide residents easy access to resources and expertise of NC State University and NC A&T State University on a wide array of topics.
Blue Ridge Women in Agriculture (BRWIA) is dedicated to strengthening the High Country's local food system by supporting women and their families with resources, education, and skills related to sustainable food and agriculture.
High Country CSA (HCCSA) is a multi-farm CSA, which reduces the risk of crop failure for the consumer, as any member farm can provide if one comes up short. This model also increases the variety of food available: each season HCCSA members typically receive varieties of over 50 different vegetables in their share.
High Country Grown is a marketing initiative to mature the High Country's local food system. This initiative was made possible by a NCDA grant received early in 2011 by project partners: Watauga and Ashe Cooperative Extension, New River Organic Growers, Blue Ridge Women in Agriculture, and High Country CSA.
The High Country has a strong agriculture base. Farmers are transitioning from tobacco to other crops including fruit and vegetables. Creating more demand by educating consumers about High Country-grown produce will increase the economic stability and sustainability of these farming operations. We have several farmers markets in the area, and interest is high for expanding opportunities for community supported agricultural programs through area worksites and targeted local marketing strategies. This project will hopefully attract new growers and allow existing growers to expand their technical proficiency in production.
Through targeted marketing strategies this project will attract new growers and allow existing growers to expand their technical proficiency in production.

Hi guys! Do you have any idea kung ano yung requirement kapag student palang?
I dont have work right now so CoEs and ITRs are out of the question. The documents that I can produce to support my finances are certificates from various banks and credit card statements. What are the chances that I'll get approved?
^No one can really tell what your chances are. If you don't have work now maybe you can just submit your latest ITR. I don't know if the credit card statements will help pero i-present mo na rin sa agency. Do your best to prove that you can adequately finance your stay.
^ I presented photocopies of my credit cards and credit card and bank statements too.
This thread is very helpful
Wala kayang maging problema kung iba *** port of entry na nilagay dun sa visa application sa actual port of entry mo pagpunta mo sa Japan.
Sa application kasi ang inilagay ko ay Tokyo pero I changed my mind now and ang magiging port of entry ko ay Osaka.
while your bank certs & cc certs can show proof of your current finances, i think it's still necessary for you to submit some proof of your source/s of your income. the embassy officials may find it odd that you do not have a proof of your source/s of income.
it will be wise to call any of the accredited agencies to get info on how to go about this problem.
and also, medyo worrysome din to read sa site nila that submitting all the requirements does NOT guarantee visa. gasp.
I'll go to japanese consulate today to collect our passport, I hope may naka stamp na visa for me and my family.
^^nakuha ko na visa ko purple, sa mid east ako now, medyo iba ang procedure ng japanese consulate dito compare sa pinas, walk in lang dito and pagdating ko sa consulate 3 lang kami applicant, yung isa for passport releasing pa hehehe
Hi All, i've been reading through the forum and i just want to ask the opinions of those who have experienced applying for a VISA and going to Japan.
ask ko *** po sa lhat ng mga nag apply.. how much po ideal na i-present na bank certificate? Family of 3 kme. hubby, me and 4yo. Would P150K and USD$3,5 be accepatable? We got our COE, ITR, NSO certificates.. bank certificate nalang before submission of application form.. I want to be sure that this is acceptable..
for kyoto/nara day tour.. I saw this tour at japanican.com for Y15,400/pax.. http://www.japanican.com/tours/tourd...010&pn=2&ipn=1 is it too expensive or just right for first time travellers like us? i am thinking that a guided tour is more efficient since we're bringing our daughter with us.
buying a kansai thru pass ticket advisable? we'll only be in osaka 4 4days/3nights
How much would be the ideal pocket money for the trip? How much cash can we bring with us to the airport? I saw something that we are not allowed to bring more than PHP 5k with us? Is it better to use credit card?
I'm thinking of staying in Hotel Villa Fontaine. I saw lots of great reviews from this forum..
Basically, our IT will be:
Day1: walking through Shinsaibashi -Dotonburi area (since we arrive late at night)
Day 2: Kyoto/Nara tour
Day 3: Universal Studio (My girl loves shrek)
Day4: Osaka Tour (Osaka Castle, Shin-Umeda City Floating Garden,
Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan, Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine, Shintennoji Temple) or maybe Shinsaibashi -Dotonburi area again
Is this feasible?
I look forward to all your suggestions.
Thanks so much in Advance!
For visiting the following: (Osaka Castle, Shin-Umeda City Floating Garden, Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan, Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine, Shintennoji Temple)
How much are their entrance fees?
For kansai through pass? will we be able to use that from Kansai Airport to Hotel Fontaine? and to USJ and within Osaka?
It's 5000Y for a 3 day pass.. should we buy it or its cheaper if you buy based on destination, although a bit of a hassle?
Sorry.. got too many questions.. I would appreciate any help!
im just checking the expenses and i think the kyoto/nara day tour is expensive.. can we do this on our own? any suggestions how?
Do you think PHP 60K is enough for the IT described above? or we need more?
Thanks again!
oh, salamat po sa paglilinaw.
guys, yung sister ko naka based sa US, uuwi siya this July at balak niya sumama sa akin sa Japan for a visit din, paano makakuha ng Japan visa from the US? or mas madali ba na dito sa Pilipinas na siya kukuha? baka kasi makulangan kami sa oras kasi July din uwi niya dito, salamat.
these might be silly questions pero gusto ko lang din ma-check:
1. ok lang ba na naka-smile sa picture for visa?
2. by experience, howmuch ba ang laman ng bank cert na enough para ma-approve ang visa?
thanks in advance sa magrereply.
we applied this monday ng japanese visa sa friendshiptours and ready for pick up na this thursday approved na kami.. we just presented sufficient amount ng bank certificate and a xerox copy ng land title..and then sinama namin yung old passports namin na meron different travel visa from other countries , nakatulong siguro yun para ma approve kami because every year nagtatravel kami

Pontiac woman reports her mother told man to ram vehicle into her home
A family argument may have led to a vehicle ramming into a townhouse Thursday morning in Pontiac, according to the Oakland County Sheriff's Office.
A 20-year-old woman told deputies that her mother, 46, had come to her residence on the 40 block of Lantern Lane and started an argument.
The conversation escalated, and the mother was heard ordering someone to ram the house with a vehicle.
A 1995 GMC Yukon allegedly slammed into the 20-year-old woman's home, causing substantial damage to the front door area.
No one was injured in the altercation.
Deputies later found the Yukon at a house on the 100 block of Pingree Avenue and impounded it as evidence. They were unable to find the woman's mother and a 45-year-old man who is suspected of driving the SUV into the home.

Kathleen (Kathie) Berard, who earned a master's at Saint Michael's College in 1996, and served most recently as senior gifts officer at Wilson College in Chambersburg, PA, has been named Individual Giving Officer at Saint Michael's College. She began at the liberal arts residential Catholic college on March 28th. Ms. Berard closed a $1 million gift for Wilson's library project just before leaving that college.
"I have done a number of things in higher education, but now I have found my passion - weaving together donors with institutional needs," Ms. Berard said. "I also love the travel that goes with this job," she said.
Before becoming a senior gift officer at Wilson, Ms. Berard served that institution as Vice President for Community Relations (2006-2007), and as VP and Dean of Enrollment (2001-2006), and she served Seton Hill College as Director of Admissions (1998-2001).
A 1987 graduate of Trinity College of Vermont, Ms. Berard served Trinity College in various capacities from 1986 to 1998, finally as their Director of Admissions, prior to joining Seton Hill.
"Returning to Vermont is like coming home," said Ms. Berard, who is now a resident of Burlington. Her oldest daughter and her daughter's husband and their two children live in South Burlington. Her other daughter, a police officer, married to a fireman, lives in Connecticut with her husband and their two children.
Ms. Berard has a strong record of community service from her time in Chambersburg, including board membership on the Greater Chambersburg Area Chamber of Commerce, the Letterkenny Industrial Development Authority, and the United Way of Franklin County, and membership in Rotary International, the American Heart Association, and the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Everblue's training courses will not only prepare you to pass the LEED Exam, certify you as an energy auditor, or teach you about sustainability, but will likely be the best seminar experience you've ever had. Don't just take our word for it; our full-time professional instructors have received thousands of testimonials. Here is a sampling:
"The Everblue course material is plentiful, detailed and easy to follow. The facility selected for the class was comfortable and conducive for this type of meeting. There was a tremendous volume of information provided to this class in a short period of time. Each class member agreed that under most circumstances, focus and attention in this type of class would be difficult to maintain without proper instruction. - Ross Richards, Facilities Management Director |
"I took my LEED Green Associate exam yesterday and passed. I know that I would not have been able to pass the exam without my classroom training provided by Everblue. The e-instructor, Jim Boley was top notch and kept the information flowing without becoming boring. I would highly recommend the LEED Green Associate Prep Class for anyone interested in pursuing the credential." - William Korb, 08/09/12 |
"The course was fun, the instructor was fantastic and the "bits and pieces" about HVACs, lighting, watts and kilowatts, that I've learned at other trainings in the past three years, all came together during this course. The topics covered is what I've been asking for since 2009 when I started working here at the Energy Office. The course manual now has a special place on my desk and have removed the other "bits and pieces" that took up too much space." - Malelega Tuiolosega |
"I recently took the LEED GA class in Boston, MA offered by Everblue and taught by James Boley. The class was extremely informative and succinct; focused on the most pertinent material. James is a very knowledgeable and personable instructor and it was a pleasure to be in his class. Through a combination of James' instruction and Everblue Study materials, I was able to pass the LEED GA w/ a 191. Without James Boley and Everblue, this would not have been at all possible. Thanks again for all the assistance. Keep up the great work!!" - Christopher A Mullen, LEED AP, JD, MS, 12/15/11 |
"Truly I never provide any comments or feedback on training classes. But I have to say it was a great pleasure to attend your class. The real world stories scattered into the material provided a reality check to why I was actually at the class in the first place. While the subject matter was compelling, it was very clear you are passionate about the subject and that passion kept my attention and engagement throughout the two day class. I felt you delivered the material perfectly and I have not stopped talking about the class since I left to just about anyone that will give me an ear on the subject. Includes colleagues at work, as well as family and friends. Reuse is much more in the front of my mind, in fact I had the kiddos coloring on the paper grocery bags last night. - Anthony Campbell, PMP, Division Manager |
"Thank you Everblue for having a great prep course and instructor! I took the LEED Green Associate course in Chicago with James. He was spot on with the information he gave us, and the practice questions and tests were very effective. I do not think I could have passed without the class. Thanks James!!!" - Carla Conway, 11/10/11 |
"I would like to thank you for sending Phil and John to teach building analyst. I learned more than I could expect. You could tell they are both very passionate about what they teach, that helped to get myself to get into the class and become just as passionate. I'm looking forward to taking more classes with these instructors. - Jeff Elsasser, 05/29/11 |
"I was part of the webinar that concluded on 5-11-11. I took and passed my GA exam yesterday on the 1st try. Although the wording in the exam is much different than I expected, I could never have even imagined passing this exam without the Everblue course. - Pete Carpenter, 05/17/11 |
"Everblue, - Mark Galbraith, 04/13/11 |
"Thanks to you I passed the exam last Friday!!! I wrote to Katie and called John to thank them. There is No Way I could have wrapped my head around this material without your incredible preparation. That spreadsheet is amazing. I appreciate all the work that went into your books, cards, class, and practice exams. - Annie Kavanagh, 03/28/11 |
"I passed the LEED Green Associate test with a score of 193. Without Everblue I doubt that I would have passed. I took the class at Hofstra University in Long Island, NY, our Instructor Joan Mahon was wonderful. With the combination of the live course, reference material and the practice tests I was really prepared for any questions they would give. Thanks again Joan." - Joseph Marino, Manager Facilities Engineering, 03/22/11 |
"I passed my LEED Green Associate exam yesterday - thanks to Everblue's class, study material and practice questions (I got a score of 193!). There was a lot of material to cover and Steve Alfaro did a wonderful job presenting it - in a very understandable way, giving us excellent tips and recommendations. Thank you Katie for being so nice and patient with me and my questions over the phone. You and Julie made the process of GBCI registering and exam scheduling, answering my questions and setting up all the practice questions a pleasant experience. I probably sound like I just won an Oscar - I would like to thank everyone who made this possible. - Elizabeth Kemph, 02/02/11 |
"Just thought I would let you know how good a tester Bruce Oxendale was this last weekend. I have been in the Building Industry since 1978 when I was discharged from the Marine Corps. This Industry needs more people like Bruce who have the experience, personality and patience to teach techniques to deal with the ever changing world of energy conservation, safety and economic benefits to our customers. I am really glad I took this course after my LEED program because I think it is a more realistic program for people who have been around for awhile and need to keep up with the changes in the industry. Have a great day. " - Jim Zimmerman, 01/31/11 |
"Greg, - Francisco Velasco, 01/30/11 |
"Good afternoon, I just wanted to share with you that this past Saturday, I took and passed the LEED GA exam. I attended to your class in Boston the past 6th and 7th of December, and I am very impressed with your knowledge about sustainability. - Nicolas Martinez, 01/18/11 |
"I wanted to share my great experience with the BPI Analyst Certification class I recently attended in Waltham, MA. The class was well organized, well run, and lead by what should be considered leaders in their field. Alex and Phil were very personable, respectful, and helpful throughout the certification experience. I would freely recommend them, and Everblue for individuals seeking a program with solid support and results." - Michael Trudeau, 11/09/10 |
"I recently took the live class for the LEED GA exam prep with James Boley, in Chicago. James made the class clear, smart, interesting, focused and friendly. He gave us all kind of helpful information to pass the test. After a few days of studying, I took the test today and passed with 183/200, in the first try. - Linette Yaniselly, 08/05/10 |
"Just took the class last week with Phil in San Antonio Tx for the BPI Energy Auditor certification. Phil made the class very informative yet very casual. I enjoyed the class and learned much more than I expected. I will use skills taught by Phil in my Green building/Energy Auditing career." - David McCord, BPI Auditor/Designer, 07/15/10 |
"I completed the webinar for LEED Green Associate back in March, 2010. The overall content of the course was very good and right on target with respect to the methodology of the test. After working for a few days on the study pack and also the question pack for the LEED AP BD&C content I was able to pass the 2 parts of the exam today. I will certainly be back to this site for my Continued Education hours. - Miguel Orejuela, 04/13/10 |
"I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the wonderful classroom and field experience provided by Vince. - Jerry Gentile, Assessor, 03/17/10 |
"This class was well attended (30 participants) and I hope we all have sponges for brains because Greg Hamra is very knowledgeable and passing would be easy if we had his knowledge. Since we do not, I can at least attest to the fact that he made learning fun and taking the exam will not be as difficult as I thought prior to taking the course." - Jorge A. Briones, Jr., 01/19/10 |
"My experience with this 2 day class with Greg Hamra was fantastic. Greg did a commendable job going over the material and showing his dedication to helping the environment. I give Greg an A+ for his effort." - Phil Stickney, 01/19/10 |
"I just attended the class in Denver, December 7-8 at the University of Denver. I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you that the instructor Joan, has a true gift. She is passionate about the subject matter and know intimately. Teaching is a talent, one that is difficult at best, AND teaching adults who are working managers and have some knowledge of the subject matter - AND keeping those adults on task, moving forward is nothing short of miraculous. I've done some adult teaching in my life, and it's much harder than teaching children. I found Joan to be pleasant, professional and an incredible instructor, and it's very apparent that she loves what she is doing and selling. I wanted you to hear that and hope this makes it's way to a person who has the ability to see that she is compensated for this amazing work. I went into this class with a 'let's get through this' attitude, but am now renewed with a more concerned about my environment attitude. I hope that if I get another opportunity to take any additional classes with your organization, I am lucky enough to have her teaching it. - Lori Mitchell, 12/12/09 |
"I just want to take a moment to say how I enjoyed the webinar presented by Mr. Greg Hamra. He definitely has the gift of teaching! The whole system was so organized, very easy to use (both audio and video) and most importantly, the course contents are so comprehensive that I found everything I needed to pass my exam and span your knowledge about sustainability and green architecture. I look forward to take LEED AP classes as well in the near future. Thank you Everblue for the incredible job!" - Golnaz Mozafari, 11/9/2009 |
"Most knowledgeable instructor I have had in a long time. You cut out the extras, presented the important test info, gave us real tools to use, and are knowledgeable enough to handle all questions without getting thrown off. In fact, we had 4 employees take your course, immediately schedule our exams, and pass to become LEED APs within 2 ½ weeks." - Danna Seigle, LEED AP |

Rihanna has long been the queen of red lipstick, which makes sense that the first product from her collaboration with MAC Cosmetics is a red lipstick, RiRi Woo.
Just stumbled upon this awesome video tutorial by makeup maestro Charlotte Tilbury on how she created the gorgeous rock 'n roll inspired smoky eye makeup on pop princess Rihanna for the March 2013 issue of V Magazine. Total hotness!
Rihanna's latest music video, "Where Have You Been", finally dropped today and just as expected from the hipster, the makeup and styling was totally fierce! Keep reading to see more looks from the video and some inside scoop from Rihanna's makeup artist Kabuki.
Besides her catchy tunes, Rihanna has always been known for her bold choice in makeup and fashion but lately, she seemed to have toned things down a bit in the makeup department. Gone are the days of bright blue eyeliner, vivid orange lipstick and spiky…

Windows Blue Public Milestone Preview coming, get ready to download and test
Last Updated on Sunday, 24 February 2013 01:27 Written by admin Sunday, 24 February 2013 02:55
You'll be able to start playing around with the first public test release of Windows Blue sooner than you think. Windows codenamed Blue, which is shaping up to be the equivalent of Service Pack 1 (SP1) for Windows 8, although this detail has yet to be confirmed officially by Microsoft, already reached Milestone 1 (M1), with a number of screenshots leaking to the public, confirming the milestone.
It appears that there's won't be a Windows Blue M2 release, and that the next testing milestone of Windows Blue will be a public preview. There's no availability date for Windows Blue Public Milestone Preview so far, but you should be able to download the bits in the next few months.
Following the public MP release, Microsoft will make the final version of Windows Blue available to the public, without going through any other interstitial testing milestones. According to Win8China, Windows Blue will be released to manufacturing sometime by the end of June 2013. This means that Windows Blue RTM will be ready for users in early August. MSDN and TechNet subscribers will get the first taste of Windows Blue RTM.
As you might have already heard, Windows Blue will come with Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) and serve to up the versioning of the Windows kernel up to 6.3. Chances are that Windows Blue Build 9600 will be the gold version of the next iteration of Windows.
Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) cooking along with Windows Blue, Reportedly
Last Updated on Saturday, 23 February 2013 09:52 Written by admin Saturday, 23 February 2013 09:52
Microsoft is building not only a new version of its Windows operating system but also the next major iteration of Internet Explorer. Check out the screenshot below which comes from Windows Blue Milestone 1 Build 9319, according to Win8China.
It's not very much to look at this point in time, that's for sure, however, it appears that the M1 Build of Windows Blue comes with Browser Mode enhancements, allowing testers to choose IE11, among other options.
In all fairness, Microsoft has made it somewhat of a tradition to match the release of new Windows and Internet Explorer iterations, so the chance that it will do the same with Windows Blue and IE11 are quite consistent.

Breakfast Burritos
My Fourth of July Weekend was filled with studying, studying, a wedding, not feeling so good the morning after the wedding, and more studying. Jealous?
Other than the beautiful wedding, my highlights of the weekend centered around eating, especially these breakfast burritos (great hangover cure). It's not the healthiest of breakfasts, but given that my idea of healthy when I eat out for breakfast is forgoing the French toast in lieu of getting the traditional eggs/toast/sausage/hash browns, it's really not that bad.

8 Stocks Soaring With Unusual Volume
Citizens Republic Bancorp
Citizens Republic Bancorp (CRBC) is a diversified banking and financial services company that is registered as a bank holding company. This stock is trading up 8.7% at $19.19 in recent trading.
Today's Volume: 849,000
Average Volume: 360,958 Volume % Change: 214% Shares of CRBC are skyrocketing today after Bloomberg reported that the company has hired JPMorgan Chase as an adviser and is soliciting takeover bids from competitors. >>4 Large Bank Stock Picks From Deutsche Bank From a technical perspective, CRBC is soaring here right off some near-term support at $17.50 with monster volume. This move has now pushed CRBC into breakout territory, since the stock has cleared some near-term overhead resistance at $18.33. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in CRBC as long as it's trending above $18.33 with strong upside volume flows. I would consider any upside volume day that registers near or above 360,958 shares as bullish. If we continue to see CRBC hold its breakout, then this stock could be setting up to head north of $20 in the near future.Select the service that is right for you!

Spotify rolls out first advertiser page for 20th Century Fox
Spotify has partnered with 20th Century Fox to launch the first "advertiser page" on the digital music service, promoting the launch of the film 'Titanic 3D'.
Spotify: promotes Titanic 3D film on its 20th Century Fox advertiser page
Advertiser pages are a new initiative by Spotify to enable brands to create their own page on the platform, where they can post content and use them for campaigns.
This particular campaign, brokered by Vizeum, enables visitors to create personalised 'Titanic' film trailers, featuring three of their Facebook friends.
Visitors to the site can also listen to the 1990s Titanic playlist, access the 16 million-track music library to share tunes that they listened to when the film was first launched, upload videos of when they first watched it, and watch videos of people who attended the 3D screening of the event.
The campaign is pan-European, running across 12 countries.
Spotify has been stepping up the opportunities for brands on the site, beyond paid-for media.
At the end of last year, it launched the first tranche of branded music apps, including one from The Guardian and Rolling Stone magazine.
Twitter has also moved down the brand-page route and, in December last year, launched enhanced pages for brands.

A Massachusetts man, who set out on a charity bike ride from Alaska, is ending his trek in Panama City.
It took Stephen Laskey 118 days to ride his bicycle from Fairbanks, Alaska to Florida.
He Crossed the 5,000 mile mark in Destin. At first, the trip was a personal challenge for Laskey, but once his plans were set, he decided to try and raise money for charity.
He chose Lance Armstrong's "Live-Strong" foundation which helps fight cancer.
"I've had family members and certain loved ones that I'm riding for," Laskey said. "They kind of want to keep things a little private but that's definitely in my drive and that's what made the trip a lot more meaningful."
Laskey plans to catch a plane back to his home in Boston. He says he
hopes to write a book about his experiences. Laskey is also still currently raising money for Live-Strong.

Here are a few photos of PSD's classified employees at schools helping students, along with photos of some behind-the-scenes classified employees (from departments like Information Technology, Payroll, the HelpDesk, School Services, etc...) who support students and the district in other ways.
Classified School Employees Week honors classified employees whose work directly or indirectly impacts student learning. From paraprofessionals working one-on-one with students, to office personnel who maintain student records, take care of emergencies, and call parents when students are sick or injured, PSD's classified employees play an important role in providing an environment conducive to learning.
PSD classified employees work in school and central office positions that do not require teaching certificates. These positions include clerical, construction, custodial, financial, food service, information technology, maintenance, media and instructional technology, paraprofessionals, purchasing, security, transportation, and warehouse.
Individual sites, departments and schools will recognize classified employees in various ways from notes of thanks to appreciation luncheons.

Major: Business
For my job with Fidelity Investments in Boston, I'm on the service team at Fidelity Charitable, the largest donor-advised fund in the country. We help organize giving for those highest net-worth clients who are extremely philanthropically inclined and want to give to a lot of charities.
I was a business major and wanted to be in something business-related, but having come from Saint Michael's, I wanted to do something on the honorable side, so philanthropy appealed to me. My high school taught me to be a hard worker, and Saint Michael's taught me to translate that into something useful for myself and for others.
My liberal arts core classes gave me a well-rounded background, which is especially important with philanthropy, which encompasses a lot of arts and sciences, education and religion.
I was on the varsity swim team. Activities beyond class are a big part of education at Saint Mike's. I learned a lot of patience, control and overall finesse because of my swim team coach, Jim Donoghue, both in the pool and outside of the pool.
My late father was a St. Mike's alumnus: Joseph James Maher Jr., Class of 1969. My younger sister Anne also graduated in 2009 and now works at McLean Hospital doing hospital social work and counseling. My dad was a lawyer - general counsel for an insurance firm - so clearly he took his Saint Michael's degree and made something of it. Now that's what I'm trying to do.

Packers cheerleader fights Facebook bullying, Bears fan removes photo
By Jay Sorgi
Photo: Facebook
GREEN BAY - A woman who was a cheerleader this past season for the Green Bay Packers is fighting back against bullying by apparent Chicago Bears fans.
Kaitlyn Collins says that on Feb. 4, someone uploaded a picture of her to the Chicago Bears Fan Facebook page.
The photo had the caption "Like if You Agree The Packers Have The Worst Cheerleaders In The NFL!"
Scroll down to watch her video about bullying against her on Facebook.As of 8:55 a.m. Thursday, the photo had nearly 3,500 likes and more than 640 comments.
One of the comments, according to Collins, says "Doesn't get uglier. Truly an eyesore."
Other comments had sexual connotations and vulgarity.
Apparently, many Bears fans joined in with Packers fans to denounce the comments.
Then, Collins posted her own video to fight the bullying.
She says she asked Facebook to take down the post, but so far, they have not done so.
Recently retired Packers wide receiver Donald Driver and current Packers guard T.J. Lang have tweeted their support for her as well.
UPDATE: As of 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 7, the photo has been removed.
The fan page that originally posted the message posted a new message on their Facebook page saying -
"We understand that you are hard core fans, but there's no need for bullying. We apologize for any hard feelings and encourage everyone to keep this page as a fun experience. Go Bears!"
Maybe not as big as the headline suggests (maybe it is, but I don't think so), but I think it's a good enough excuse to bring up something: Chicago Bears fans are a peg or two below Steelers fans in terms of annoyance. I'll admit I've had my fun with opposing fans when we win, but I've never understood the type of idiot that takes things too far. I know I've shared this story, but I'll share again: during the Bears Packers finale in 2010, I had drinking buddies that were Lions and Packers fans. Well, we're laughing about the horrible game plan the Bears had, and some idiot Bears fan start arguing with me because I have friends that aren't Bears fans. I have some good friends that are mature enough to show their admiration for this team, but it seems there are large numbers of Bears fans that are mouth breathing knuckle draggers. You guys have any similar experiences with other Bears fans, or fans of a different team?

Panbroiling is a technique used to cook meats and fish on the rangetop with little or no added fat. The method is well suited to thinner steaks, chops and fish fillets. It sears the outside of the meat in a similar manner to oven broiling. To panbroil, preheat a heavy nonstick skillet and cook meat or fish over medium-high heat, draining any fat that accumulates. A rangetop grill with bottom ridges will continuously drain away fat.

We got a little drunk and decided to hit up a Topanga midnight session. My buddy chickened out so got stuck with video camera duty. Didn't take long for my eyes to adjust since it was a full moon and the lights from PCH and the restaurants was shining. But no sooner do I hear this woosh woosh woosh ... look up and make an outline of a longboarder charging at me full tilt. Too late to duck dive so I turtle and feel him run over me. When I resurface I just hear mad cursing ... what the f*ck this f*ck that etc etc. I get out to the lineup, sit, and notice 2 dudes coming at me from my 10 and 2 oclock. To my rear, a VERY pissed off dude is paddling to me - still cursing. These guys looked like they just got out of prison. The guy to my back finally gets to me and goes on - "You gotta make yourself f*cking known man!! What the f*ck!!" ... I figure I'm in for a serious ass beating anyway so I just start going OFF on these guys. Profanities are flying meanwhile I'm slowly trying to paddle away from the center while sitting on my board. Out of the corner of my eye I spot a wave coming and, believe you me, I'm paddling out of there like a bat out of hell. I catch the wave as far as I can, jump off my board and run straight to shore past my buddy who still has the camera in hand - "Get the f*ck back to the car NOW dude!!!" We get in the car, I'm still soaking in my wetsuit, board half assed out the window, and peel out of there like motherf*ckers.
The video is priceless ... "There goes crazy Rob for a midnight session at Topanga" ... I disappear into the night ... few minutes later some cursing, then more cursing, then a bunch of people cursing ... "Ok Rob is about to get his ass kicked" few seconds of silence ... "Ok Rob might be dead" ... I emerge out of the darkness running like hell yelling "Get the f*ck back in the car NOW dude!!" ... shaky camera and a lot of laughter from my buddy as he's running after me.
So, yeah, night surfing can be pretty cool.

Absolutely loved it: the great atmosphere, really nice service and very very tasteful food. They even have a small benches (or maybe they are tiny chairs) for the handbags for each lady.

A really beautiful place, stylish, classy, perfectly situated just in the back of the Bolshoi theatre. Must be the most upscale place I have been in in Moscow. And the food was simply excellent.

The atmosphere was very relaxing and enjoyable.The service was great and the servers were warm and friendly. The food was delicious, but expensive. The vodka was the best I've ever had. Great authentic Russian place to eat!
Had a private visit of the Bolshoi, even got to go on stage and back stage... so impressive and beautiful !
We dined with our friends in this classy-looking restaurant and were disappointed. The waiter quite shamelessly kept for himself approximately 12 cl from the first bottle of red wine we ordered. From the second bottle we were offered only once, approximately 6-8 cl for each 4 customers. This makes 24-32 cl from a bottle of 75 cl. The rest the... More
Excellent food and great service (without being over the top). As is typical for Moscow open late so you can comfortably go after the ballet. Also typical for Moscow and Russia the wine prices are ridiculously high, seems inescapable! Overall a great restaurant and definitely recommended.
If you are interested, what wine is the most popular among Russian oligarchs in this season - here sommelier knows the answer. Be ready to pay more than 1000$ for the bottle, and more then 300$ per person for the food.
Bolshoi is a proper formal dining place. Went here for a business dinner, service was very good. They have a very extensive menu with good variety, and as expected, a comprehensive wine list. The appetizers were excellent, the mains pretty good. Overall a solid bet for a formal meal.
In great cities you always need to go to great restaurants. Everything about the Bolshoi was big, including the bill of course. If you can afford it go because it is a great culinary adventure, I had the best blinis with beluga caviar, great veal and amazing dessert

Favorite fall hair
Oooh, yes, middle parts, fishtails and tiny braids. That's my hair plan for the fall:) What's yours? Anyone getting a brave haircut or doing anything drastic?
P.S. 15 hair tutorials...
(Photos from Teen Vogue, Tory Burch, Holly Fulton. Graphic design by Rachel for Cup of Jo)
84 comments:
On Thursday I'm donating my hair to Locks of Love. I have long straight hair and I'll be going to a chin-length bob. I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI have a blunt bob, my favorite hairstyle, but I have been braiding the front of my hair to keep it out of my face without resorting to putting my hair behind my ears, which just feels like a cop out. But I will never, ever wear a center part. They look horrible on me (and most people, in my opinion). When I want to make my husband laug hysterically, I part my hair down the middle. It's so hilariously bad. But I'm sure you can pull it off!
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with the fishtail braid and all the other braided updos! O.o So cute!
http://follementefashion.blogspot.it/I wish I could be all "blah, I won't change my hair for the season" but I totally want to do something drastic. I cut most of my length off last spring and have had a cute bob, but I'm thinking I'm going to go really short. Like pixie short. But, I'm worried about my ears freezing in our Minnesota winters. So I don't know. Oh and I just dyed my naturally black hair a pretty chocolate brown so that's fall-ish :)
ReplyDeleteI was getting super bored with my plain long hair so I just cut bangs!! Perfect for this brisk fall weather [minus the few sticky rainy days last week...] and I've been getting tons of compliments. At work, it took people a few days to realize the change -- "is your hair darker?" Last night, I even tried out the heidi braids [from your tutorial] with the bangs! Perfect for a "I washed my bangs but not my whole head" day... not that I ever do that...
ReplyDeletei'm cutting it all off! my bridezilla friend forbid me from cutting it the second she got engaged and it was a heinously hot summer for a nappy hair blanket, it's currently past my bra's backstrap, so long. the wedding was sunday and my pixie will be next tuesday! SO EXCITED! i can't wait to be able to fit a hat on my head!
ReplyDeleteI usually like to dye my hair every fall... I have brown hair and the summer fades it out (and it gets kinda mousy) so every fall since high school basically I go in and ask them to dye it "the darkest shade of brown without it being black....and usually a hint of red" it's such a rich colour for the colder months!
ReplyDeletethe hair are stunning...feel very taylor swiff :)
Cammi @ Cammilicious.comI actually donated 20 inches of my hair in late June. (There is a local business affiliated with the Canadian Cancer Society that gives a free wig to a child under 16 - I even got to write an anonymous letter :) I am currently rocking a pixie-cut, with Michelle Williams as my muse! I still peruse your hair tutorials for the time where my hair will be that length again! xo
ReplyDeleteI love the fishtail braids! They're a different but classic way to mix things up.
Isn't That Charming.I just chopped my long curly locks off! Not too short but enough to almost regret it. Why does this happen?!
Maria xx
Really pretty braids. Not only does it look nice, it defends against windy days too.
Girlie Blog Seattle | Cheap Makeup ReviewsThe mini bread is cute. The others are not my favorites, to be honest. I like long braids, but not so messy. And middle parts are awfully tough to pull off, IMO, especially if you have a long face and straight hair. I have chin length curly hair,so there's not really a ton of styling options that I've seen that work for my hair. I did just get rid of all my overly sunned blonde and went darker with caramel highlights. Seemed season appropriate and it will cut down on upkeep, since it matched my roots closely. But, honestly, I'm missing the blonde and probably won't keep it dark when I'm due to go back around Christmas time.
ReplyDeleteI just cut 12 inches off my hair into a stylish bob. My hair has never been this short as an adult and I'm loving it. I love how it looks tucked into the high collar of my Fall jacket. I will be growing it back because I know eventually I'll want to try lovely braids like the ones you posted.
