If you are experiencing flood water in your home, you require technicians for water damage repair and restoration to get your home and life back to normal. Every process needs professionals and technicians for complete elimination of water damage. The technical service professionals provide to repair and restore your property to pre-damaged condition.
These technicians get training to deal with emergency situations relating fire, water, mold, sewage backup damage and repair. Many training institutes are working to give technical training and certificates. Regional, local and online training programs are available for professionals in different categories and they are:
Water damage restoration
Fire damage restoration
Applied structural drying
Upholstery cleaning
Mold remediation
Trauma and Biohazard treatment
They must get practical and technical training to set up and operate equipment like air movers, moisture detectors, and humidifiers properly. They must know how to dry water using various drying equipments, how to use monitors to detect water pockets and where to use infrared camera.
They should know that all water damage situations are not the same and their treatment also differ from one another. They must know the difference of various categories of water and their effects on building, objects and people living there.
The technicians should know the principles and proper fire, smoke and soot restoration skills. They should know how fire affects various materials after fire tragedy and how to restore them one by one. They should know to use the cleaning agents and chemicals to eliminate smoke odor from objects and remove soot residues.
The professional should learn techniques how to differentiate between salvageable and unsalvageable things, how to clean and sanitize various objects according to their nature, how to remove and dispose of mold damaged objects safely and how to remove damaged structural features of a property and install new ones.
Manual dexterity is required to lift and handle heavy equipment while working at water damage areas. Technicians in different areas, require good teamwork to collaborate with each other working on water restoration projects. They should be trained to have better communication with each other, their supervisor and owner of the damaged property to give better results.
The damage and restoration professionals should know to use proper gear according to the nature of damage like during fire damage from smoke and soot particles or while using powerful cleaners, biocides and sanitizers after water elimination or during mold remediation. They must have proper know how of their own safety but also care for the residents of damaged area.
After getting training and skills in damage restoration process, these technicians are capable of giving emergency repair and restoration services and maintenance services both. With hard work and experience restoration technician can become a supervisor, crew chief and self-employed contractors.
It is important to take small courses and attend seminars to refresh knowledge of damage restoration technicians from time to time. Here use of latest techniques and equipments for better restoration is offered. One day class on teaching how to remove odor of various types in houses, is arranged. Three-day classes to train for handling complicated large loss projects.

Historical Information
The University of Texas at Tyler's participation in international programs dates to its joining of the University of Texas System in 1979. At the beginning of the 1990s, UT Tyler began to participate in various exchange programs between the university and central European nations. Participating nations were former members of the Soviet Union or Warsaw Pact, and had only recently broken away from the communist bloc and became liberal democracies. This program began with the Polish Municipal Education and Leadership Program in 1990. The PMELP was a program facilitated by the Sister Cities International organization that sought to train and educate municipal leaders from the Polish town of Jelenia Góra. The program began in 1990 and ended in 1995 with multiple delegations from Tyler and Jelenia Gora engaging in an educational exchange program to foster international cooperation and training for municipal governance and leadership. This exchange also included a cultural exchange between Tyler and Jelenia Gora. The program was originally facilitated by Dr. Patricia Gajda, and university President Dr. George Hamm. At the same time, the University began development of more travel study programs between 1990 and 1994, including art and theater travel study courses to the United Kingdom and Italy. These types of courses would continue through the 1990s and into the early 2000s and include whirlwind trips through Great Britain, France, and Italy. The Central European Studies Program was a program of intellectual exchange between the University of Texas at Tyler faculty and various university faculty and students from central European nations such as Bulgaria, Romania, and Poland to name a few. Lectures concerning central European history and politics were held at UT Tyler by visiting professors and university faculty. UT Tyler faculty along with some City of Tyler administrators participated in a trip to Budapest, Hungary in 1994. The International Summer Program from 1994 to 1996 was a summer program that brought several foreign students from central and eastern European nations to study during the summer sessions at UT Tyler.

Steve McCabe MP is encouraging his constituents who are currently on the Council's housing waiting list to re-register before 19 April 2017 to avoid being taken off the register.
Birmingham City Council is changing the way it allocates social housing to make the system easier for people to understand and to make the best use of the existing housing stock. The Council have also said that the current system gives people false expectations because of open access to the housing register and makes it difficult for existing tenants to gain an offer of alternative accommodation.
The new scheme will not have an open Housing Register, this means that those with the most housing need or those who are most vulnerable will be eligible to be placed on the housing register. This will mean some people currently on the register will no longer be eligible. Under the new policy, those who will be eligible must fall within the new banding criteria, there are 4 bandings and these are;
- Band 1: Reasonable Preference plus additional preference (very urgent need) i.e. those living in acute overcrowding, medical housing needs, foster carers and HM armed forces
- Band 2: Reasonable Preference categories (Hardship and homelessness)
- Band 3: Non-priority and intentionally homeless, (Intentionally homeless, non-priority homeless, 1 bedroom short)
- Band 4: No Reasonable Preference, but qualify for City of Birmingham priority award (Aged 55+ seeking retirement or extra-care housing, ex-armed forces personnel who lived in Birmingham for at least 6 months immediately prior to enlisting)
The Council will have started writing to all of the 20,000 applicants listed on the current Housing Allocation register to tell them that, if they still wish to be allocated social housing, they will need to make a new application to the new scheme.
To reapply online please visit: www.birmingham.gov.uk/info/20046/council_housing/922/housing_applications_and_re-registration

Warsaw Cryptology Prof Gets Massive 2.4 Million Euro from Prestigious ERC
A Warsaw professor of cryptography has been awarded a prestigious European Research Council grant.
Professor Stefan Dziembowski from the University of Warsaw joined 184 other winners by scooping EUR 2.4 million for his PROCONTRA research project into encryption and encrypting messages.
The scientist at the university's Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Mechanics, will focus on what's known as smart contracts, the 'IT equivalent' of legal contracts. The concept appeared in the 1990s, but has recently gained popularity, mainly due to the development of the blockchain technology that provides tools for recording and performing these contracts.
Professor Dziembowski said: "They are written in a language resembling a programming language, thanks to which they always remain unambiguous and, unlike contracts written in natural language, their interpretation is not subject to disputes."
The subject of his research within the PROCONTRA project will be cryptographic protocols, i.e. algorithms that interact with smart contracts.
He said: "A simple example of such protocols can be a chess game, in which a smart contract is responsible for the fairness of the game, for example it guarantees that you cannot make illegal moves, and the protocol contains instructions for each player on how to behave in order to make a move in the game."
He added that in practice much more complicated protocols can be used, including those designed for more participants.
Among the potential applications of protocols using smart contracts are IoT transactions, where contracts need to be concluded between devices, without human intervention.
Dziembowski said: "The PROCONTRA project aims to transform this emerging field into mature science. In particular, the goal of the grant is to create a theory of protocols based on smart contracts, along with a security model, formal proofs and a set of mathematical tools to analyse their security.
"As part of the project, we will create new protocols of this type and analyse existing protocols. For example, we will analyse off-chain protocols used to transfer a significant portion of operations outside the main blockchain, while maintaining the same security guarantees."
The PROCONTRA project financed with the ERC grant and other sources of funding will contribute to the creation of the first academic blockchain and smart contract technology development centre at the University of Warsaw.
Professor Dziembowski has received the Best Paper Award at the Eurocrypt conference and IEEE Symposium on Security & Privacy.
He was a postdoctoral fellow at the Sapienza University of Rome. As an employee of that university, he received the Starting Grant of the European Research Council in 2007. He soon moved the research project 'Cryptography and non-trusted machines' to the University of Warsaw, thus becoming the first winner of this prestigious award at the University of Warsaw.
The ERC awarded grants worth a total of 450 million euros, of which 35 went to scientists working in Germany, 34 to scientists in the UK, and 21 to scientists in France.

Tune into We Should Talk every Thursday, where In The Know's Gibson Johns interviews your favorite celebrities and influencers. Subscribe to We Should Talk here.
Candiace Dillard Bassett was ready for a fresh start going into the upcoming sixth season of The Real Housewives of Potomac — and it seems the rest of her co-stars were, as well.
Season 5 put Candiace at the center of the drama, with her explosive feud with Monique Samuels turning physical, dividing the cast and the audience alike and resulting in charges being filed between both of the women, all of which were dismissed. With Monique leaving the show at the end of the season, season 6 offered Candiace an opportunity for a clean slate.
For the latest episode of In The Know's pop culture interview series, We Should Talk, Candiace Dillard Bassett opened up about moving on from last season's drama and focusing her energy on her burgeoning music career. She also discussed her drama with newbie Mia Thornton, not believing those infidelity rumors about Wendy Osefo's husband, what's going on between Gizelle and Jamal Bryant, and much more.
"It can be triggering just to go back into a space that, when you came out of that space, you were disheveled — emotionally disheveled. I had a little bit of apprehension," Candiace told In The Know about starting filming for season 6. "It was a lot of unknowns: What was gonna happen? How would people respond? What's the group's morale? The life was sucked out of the group, and the morale of the group was just damaged. I felt like, in a little bit of a way, I had a responsibility to help repair that. I had a lot of feelings, and it was a lot of positive and a lot of negative, but I think that when you get rid of negativity, it makes it easy to move forward. We all — the cast that you will see in season 6 — we all wanted to move forward, and we all wanted to repair and heal."
Listen to Real Housewives of Potomac star Candiace Dillard Bassett's full episode of We Should Talk below, and keep reading for highlights from the interview:
Candiace Dillard Bassett on her headspace coming out of season 5 of RHOP: "I was in a couple of places. For sure, I was still coming off of being really depressed and having a lot of anxiety about just not being able to control a narrative that was clearly malarky. It was clearly just a lot of craziness. I had a lot of really good talks with some of the girls. I had really great talks with the network; they were very supportive of me. They really made sure that I was okay, and they wanted to make sure that I was okay. All that aside, though, it can be triggering just to go back into a space that, when you came out of that space, you were disheveled — emotionally disheveled. I had a little bit of apprehension, and a little bit of… the unknown is very frightening for humans [and] for people in general. It was a lot of unknowns: What was gonna happen? How would people respond? What's [the morale of the group as a whole?] The life was sucked out of the group, and the morale of the group was just damaged. I felt like, in a little bit of a way, I had a responsibility to help repair that. I had a lot of feelings, and it was a lot of positive and a lot of negative, but I think that when you get rid of negativity, it makes it easy to move forward. We all — the cast that you will see in season 6 — we all wanted to move forward, and we all wanted to repair and heal."
Candiace Dillard Bassett on the rumors of infidelity about Wendy Osefo's husband, Eddie, that come up this season: "Ashley kind of comes in and sweeps in and drops this bomb and then leaves. So, I was like, 'What just happened here?' I don't want to give it away, but the rumor seems to be coming from the direction of Ashley and Gizelle. I don't know if Wendy knew about it beforehand. I had not heard about this rumor, but Wendy was very angry. What you see when she was sitting there on that couch, and she's like, 'What you're not gonna do is…' We were all there looking like, 'What is going on here?' Nobody knew what was happening. That was intense. A lot of heated words were exchanged in those moments, and it was a lot. I was p*****! This was supposed to be fun girl time, and here comes Ashley and her forehead dropping bombs and starting some mess. […] I got really upset, and I think they will probably cut it out because I got really upset. I was triggered. People talk or joke all the time about being triggered about some things, but the conversation that was being had where Wendy was admonishing Gizelle triggered me because I remember how I felt hearing things and reading things that were just totally untrue. And here we're talking about a blog on our show that is trying to ruin a family. By the way, the Osefo rumors, I believe, are untrue. They are untrue if you ask me."
Candiace Dillard Bassett on new Housewife, Mia Thornton: "Having our new 'Wife, Mia, definitely helped. Mia is a ball of energy, she's fresh air, and she's really sweet. She kinda starts out really rocky — like, incredibly rocky… with almost everybody. I was lookin' like, 'What in the what is happening in here?' She came in scorching! Yes. It was really funny to see. I was there for some stuff, and then I heard about other things. It's like putting all the pieces together to be like, 'What is going on? She said what to who and why and huh?' Her life is such a storybook-like a Lifetime movie! She doesn't look like what she's been through at all, so to see her be standing firm in who she is and being confident. You'll get to see her story play out."
Candiace Dillard Bassett on what leads to Mia and her throwing salad at one another this season: "Oh, my gosh. It was over the river and through the woods. It was like a journey. We started out cool, then it was great, and then it was like, 'wait, what?' and then it was like 'huh?' and then it was like, 'salad!' You almost don't even know how it happens. It didn't happen quickly. It was very much so like a journey of communication and miscommunication. Mia had to find her place and find her way and learn that everybody here is successful, everyone here has had at one point something to prove, and you don't gotta do all that, girl. We're gonna get to know you! Your turn is coming. Simmer down. And she got there, but there was salad before that. Undressed salad! It was dry salad. We were having lunch and, you know, now we're throwing food in somebody's house."
Candiace Dillard Bassett on Gizelle Bryant's relationship with ex-husband Jamal: "It's not the easiest to be a friend to Gizelle in that way, because she can be a little closed off. The world could be on fire, and everything could be crumbling around her, and she's gonna be like, 'It's fine!' We kind of went through that a little bit, where it was clear that there was a little bit of trouble in paradise, and as a friend, I'm gonna come to you one-on-one personally and say, 'Hey, are you good? Are you okay? What's happening?' At first, she was kind of giving me the Heisman — not in a negative way, but more like, 'Yeah, we're fine. We're probably going to take a break.' Then I was like, 'A break? Why? This is the perfect time to be bumping in the sheets! You're in quarantine. You can't go anywhere. You might as well lay with the people you know!' It was weird that she was, at first, guarded and also just giving very light tidbits about what was going on. Then, eventually, she did share that they had broken up. But it's weird because they're friends. […] He comes up to visit all the time to see the girls. […] They seem to be doing whatever, and it seems to be working."

Fire Chief - Kevin Moulton
Welcome to the Zoneton Fire Protection District, I'm Kevin Moulton your Fire Chief. Our Membership consists of 7 Board of Directors, 30 Volunteer Firefighters, a Support Team,a part-time Administrative Assistant to the Chief, 12 full-time Firefighters, a full-time training officer, a full-time Fire Marshal and a full time Fire Chief. We operate out of two firehouses, our headquarters is located at 5328 N Preston Hwy and our station 2 is located at 163 Overlook Acres Rd.
In 2015, Zoneton Fire District had a ISO rating change and is now considered a Class 2 Fire District, this new rating may save property owners on their insurance premiums. Not all Insurance Companies recognize the classification change, however, most of the companies will recognize the new rate, another area to potentially save a few dollars is to let your agent be aware if you have any fire hydrants within 1000 feet of your property this could make a difference. I had a business owner call and say that the new rate and the fire hydrants located close to the property will save him $1,000.00 per year on his premiums, therefore, I would encourage everyone to call your agent and ask if this will allow any savings for you.
You may notice the firefighters out more often due to the increase in fire alarm responses and community outreach programs. The district has experienced our run volume increasing steadily over the past five years with the largest increase this past year. With the growth in the northern part of the county we are expecting the number of calls to increase each year, so we are trying to stay one step ahead and constantly try to prepare ourselves a priority for a better partnership with the community we serve, which is the property owners of the district.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com

Our Patron Saint
St. Anthony of Padua
St. Anthony of Padua is one of the most loved saints of the Catholic Church and is the patron saint of lost items and travelers. He was canonized one year after his death on June 13, 1231. Three hundred years later, his body was exhumed and, miraculously, his tongue was found to be incorrupt.
If you have visited Catholic churches, you have seen your share of statues of St. Anthony of Padua, He's the one typically portrayed holding the child Jesus—or a lily—or a book—or all three—in his arms.
Anthony was born in 1195 in Lisbon (now Portugal, then a part of Spain), and given the name of Fernando at Baptism.
At the age of 15 he entered the religious order of St. Augustine where he began years of intense study, learning the Augustinian theology that he would later combine with the Franciscan vision. Fernando was probably ordained a priest during this time.
Firmly Against Heresy, Warmly Toward Truth
The life of the young priest took a crucial turn when the bodies of the first five Franciscan martyrs were returned from Morocco. Their remains were carried in solemn procession to Fernando's monastery.
He was inspired to a momentous decision. At Fernando's request, the Franciscans allowed Anthony to go to Morocco, to be a witness for Christ, and a martyr as well. But, as often happens, the gift he wanted to give was not the gift that was to be asked of him. He became seriously ill, and after several months realized he had to go home.
He never arrived. His ship ran into storms and high winds and was blown east across the Mediterranean. Months later he arrived on the east coast of Sicily. The friars at nearby Messina, though they didn't know him, welcomed him and began nursing him back to health. Still ailing, he wanted to attend the great Pentecost Chapter of Mats (so called because the 3,000 friars could not be housed and slept on mats). Francis was there, also sick. History does not reveal any meeting between Francis and Anthony.
Since the young man was from "out of town," he received no assignment at the meeting, so he asked to go with a provincial superior from northern Italy. "Instruct me in the Franciscan life," he asked, not mentioning his prior theological training. Now, like Francis, he had his first choice—a life of seclusion and contemplation in a hermitage near Montepaolo.
Perhaps we would never have heard of Anthony if he hadn't gone to an ordination of Dominicans and Franciscans in 1222. As they gathered for a meal afterward, the provincial suggested that one of the friars give a short sermon. Quite typically, everybody ducked. So Anthony was asked to give "just something simple," since he presumably had no education.
Anthony too demurred, but finally began to speak in a simple, artless way. The fire within him became evident. His knowledge was unmistakable, but his holiness was what really impressed everyone there.
Now he was exposed. His quiet life of prayer and penance at the hermitage was exchanged for that of a public preacher. Francis heard of Anthony's previously hidden gifts, and Anthony was assigned to preach in northern Italy.
The problem with many preachers in Anthony's day was that their life-style contrasted sharply with that of the poor people to whom they preached.
Anthony saw that words were obviously not enough. He had to show gospel poverty. People wanted more than self-disciplined, even penitent priests. They wanted genuineness of gospel living. And in Anthony they found it. They were moved by who he was, more than what he said.
Despite his efforts, not everyone listened. Legend has it that one day, faced with deaf ears, Anthony went to the river and preached to the fishes. That, reads the traditional tale, got everyone's attention.
Anthony traveled tirelessly in both northern Italy and southern France—perhaps 400 trips—choosing to enter the cities where the heretics were strongest.
Public Preacher, Franciscan Teacher
Anthony's superior, St. Francis, was cautious about education such as his protege possessed. He had seen too many theologians taking pride in their sophisticated knowledge. Still, if the friars had to hit the roads and preach to all sorts of people, they needed a firm grounding in Scripture and theology. So, when he heard the glowing report of Anthony's debut at the ordinations, Francis wrote in 1224, ";It pleases me that you should teach the friars sacred theology, provided that in such studies they do not destroy the spirit of holy prayer and devotedness, as contained in the Rule."
Anthony continued to preach as he taught the friars and assumed more responsibility within the Order. In 1226 he was appointed provincial superior of northern Italy, but still found time for contemplative prayer in a small hermitage. Around Easter in 1228 (he was only 33 years old), while in Rome, he met Pope Gregory IX, who had been a faithful friend and adviser of St. Francis. Naturally, the famous preacher was invited to speak. He did it humbly, as always. The response was so great that people later said that it seemed the miracle of Pentecost was repeated.
Padua Enters the Picture
Padua, Italy is a short distance west of Venice. At the time of Anthony, it was one of the most important cities in the country, with an important university for the study of civil and canon law. Sometimes Anthony left Padua for greater solitude. He went to a place loved by Francis—LaVerna, where Francis received the wounds of Jesus. He also found a grotto near the friary where he could pray in solitude.
Back in Padua, he preached his last and most famous Lenten sermons. The crowds were so great—sometimes 30,000—that the churches could not hold them, so he went into the plazzas or the open fields. People waited all night to hear him. He needed a bodyguard to protect him from the people armed with scissors who wanted to snip off a piece of his habit as a relic. After his morning Mass and sermon, he would hear confessions. This sometimes lasted all day—as did his fasting.
The great energy he had expended during the Lent of 1231 left him exhausted. He went to a little town near Padua, but seeing death coming close, he wanted to return to the city that he loved. The journey in a wagon weakened him so much, however, that he had to stop at Arcella. He had to bless Padua from a distance, as Francis had blessed Assisi.
At Arcella, he received the last sacraments, sang and prayed with the friars there. When one of them asked Anthony what he was staring at so intently, he answered, "I see my Lord!" He died in peace a short time after that. He was only 36 and had been a Franciscan but 10 years.
The following year, his friend, Pope Gregory IX, moved by the many miracles that occurred at Anthony's tomb, declared him a saint.

(…Or, the beginning of 7 months of Christmas Eve-like anticipation…)
Everyone told me that I'd be excited. But I had no idea it'd be like this.
I've barely eaten in a few weeks (save roughly one meal a day). I've been awake until 2:00am every night. I wake up early, like really early, easily. It feels like massive amounts of adrenaline are pumping through my veins all the time. I've had to give up caffeine altogether (for now) because I haven't stopped buzzing with otherworldly excitement since I got engaged a couple of weeks ago.
My current mental state is an endless maze–I can't focus on any one thing, but my mind is constantly weaving down one thought path, then another, then another, then another. There have been small, precious moments with Jesus where I've felt a pause amidst this crazy, overstimulating maze, but most days lately are spent trying to make sense of my swirling thoughts and emotions.
It's nothing negative–it's everything positive, actually, just all at once. Each piece of my future is so full of anticipation for me that I'm not sure which to tackle first. Where will we get married? Where will we live? Are we going to buy a house? What can we afford? Which venue/photographer/caterer/florist should we go with? And the questions, thoughts, feelings, emotions–they all go on…
No hard decisions have been made yet, but I am strongly leaning towards a few things. First, we've decided to get married this July (no definite date until we book a venue), somewhere in Texas. Second, we love the colors navy blue, blush pink, and gold…well. There you have it. Somewhere in Texas, sometime in July, there will be a wedding with the colors navy, blush, and gold.
Rather than try to nail down details that I have not nailed down, let me tell you my vision. My 30,000 foot vision for my wedding and future.
I dream about an intimate, romantic, warm wedding. I want to add small, meaningful details to make it feel just like me and Riley. I hope our guests are relaxed and comfortable and everything–us, the décor, the venue, our officiant–exudes joy and nothing feels uptight or stuffy. Mostly, I pray that Jesus is very clearly at the center of our wedding day and marriage.
Here are some inspirational photos that are helping me form my vision:
So, there's a very small sampling of my wedding inspiration thus far (all found on my Pinterest boards). If you see something on Pinterest that you think might help me, feel free to send me the pin–simply click on the image you want to send, click "Send," and then type in my name! I would love some assistance in narrowing down my vision! 🙂
Outside of planning our wedding day, Riley and I are also seriously praying through the time afterwords. We live three and a half hours apart at present, meaning that one of us will need to move so that we can live in the same place. There's really no easy or simple solution, so we've handed the situation over to the Lord and are eagerly waiting on Him to reveal our next steps. In the meantime, we are looking at houses in both places so that we can [hopefully] have a house in place before our nuptials.
Finally, there a couple of personal goals I have before we wed. Like any bride, I want to look my best on such an important day. I'm interested in doing the Insanity 60 Day Challenge (anyone done it?) to tone up, so that I walk down the aisle feeling my best physically. Additionally, I'd like to get my teeth whitened! 🙂 Emotionally and spiritually, both Riley and I are reading several books on Christian marriage as one small way to prepare for becoming one–we're also going to get premarital counseling.
I realize now more than ever that there's no way to be fully prepared for planning a wedding, planning a marriage, and planning a life. The good news is that I am completely free from the necessity to be fully prepared. God is behind me and before me. He has orchestrated this love and this life, and so, in the midst of swirling anticipation and excitement, I will look to Him for the one next step.


text: From the author of Brothers and China in Ten Words this celebrated contemporary classic of Chinese literature was also adapted for film by Zhang Yimou. This searing novel, originally banned in China but later named one of that nation's most influential books, portrays one man's transformation from the spoiled son of a landlord to a kindhearted peasant. After squandering his family's fortune in gambling dens and brothels, the young, deeply penitent Fugui settles down to do the honest work of a farmer. Forced by the Nationalist Army to leave behind his family, he witnesses the horrors and privations of the Civil War, only to return years later to face a string of hardships brought on by the ravages of the Cultural Revolution. Left with an ox as the companion of his final years, Fugui stands as a model of gritty authenticity, buoyed by his appreciation for life in this narrative of humbling power.show more

Argentina's young Aids victims
By the BBC's Lourdes Heredia in Buenos Aires
Thirteen-year-old Dario has lived in Buenos Aires' Muniz hospital in Buenos Aires for the last three months. He has Aids.
He contracted the virus at birth, as did 95% of the children infected with the HIV virus in Argentina.
Aids was first detected in Argentina in 1982.
When he is not in hospital, Dario says his life is like that of his peers.
"It's not that bad. The worst thing is having to wake up at night to take the medicines.
"Also I know I cannot run in the rain and I have to wear a sweater if it's cold. I have to be very careful not to get sick or they will take me to the hospital," he says.
Dario loves to play football and mess around like most other young teenage boys.
At the hospital his best friend is Lucas. They have a good time together, but now Dario wants to go back home.
He shows a drawing which he will give to his sister when he returns home in a week's time.
Dario lives with his grandparents. His mother is dead and his father is in prison.
"My parents are not here anymore, but my grandmother always wakes me up for my medicines," he says.
"She's really good and she doesn't get angry when I don't want to swallow the pills."
Dario knows that he is different from other children, but he still believes he will become an architect or at least a builder like his grandfather.
Worst enemy
Dario is in hospital to try out a new treatment. His doctor is Robert Hirsch, who runs the unit for HIV-infected children at the hospital.
"The problem is that most of the time, not even the mother knows that she is sick," he says.
He adds that most of these children live in squalid conditions.
"These kids can be controlled with a good treatment. And they live virtually a normal life, but is not easy. Poverty is their worst enemy," he says.
"Sometimes the treatment does not work because they don't have enough food or because they are not given their regular doses of medicine."
The recession in Argentina, now in its fourth year, further complicates the situation.
Dr Hirsch says that he is not envied by his colleagues.
People believe that working with children infected by HIV can be very emotionally draining, but he says that it is just the opposite.
"They live for life. They never give up even when they are suffering. They are a model for many of their elders to follow," he says.

Kim Zolciak Claims Sudden Pregnancy Weight Loss — In Just NINE Days — Was All Natural: 'I Have NOT Had A Tummy Tuck'
Kim Zolciak's shocking weight loss less than two weeks after giving birth to twins seemed too good to be true without the help of surgeon, but the reality show star swears that she did not have a "tummy tuck" in order to slim down.
The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star's oldest daughter Brielle posted a picture on Twitter of Zolciak minus the baby bump and asked the question, "how is my mom a size 4... it's been 9 days since she gave birth to twins," causing speculation that there was no way that she could drop the weight that quickly.
Now Zolciak herself is speaking out about her post-baby weight loss and is claiming she did not have surgery to help her get back down to a smaller size.
"I don't know what doc wud do major surgery the day u deliver but I have NOT had a tummy tuck!" the former The Real Housewives of Atlanta star, 35, tweeted at a fan and also at talk show host Wendy Williams.
"All of her weight is centered around her belly (that is stretched with the twins), and her face, arms, and legs are lean like a person who isn't pregnant," Dr. J Shah, Chief Medical Director of Amari Medical in New York exclusively told RadarOnline.com when looking at pregnant photos of Zolciak.
"Two things can explain this phenomenon. She is lucky to most likely have a large placenta that is producing a high level of the hCG hormone. This hormone is essential in converting the mother's fat into nutrition for the babies, therefore preventing her own body from storing the fat."
Dr. Shah says the other factor that contributed to Zolciak's fit post-baby body is that she likely ate very healthy during her pregnancy.
- Wendy Williams' Ex-Husband Fighting Talk Show Producers' Attempt to Pause His $10 Million Wrongful Termination Lawsuit
- Wendy Williams' Ex-Husband Ordered to Pay 5-Figure Judgment Over Alleged Debt as Money Troubles Grow
- Wendy Williams' Ex-Husband Kevin Sells Off $1.2 Million Florida Pad as Financial Troubles Worsen
"After the pregnancy, she loses the weight of the twins, the placenta and fluids and by looking at her pre-pregnancy picture, she would fit easily back into a size 4," he told Radar.
While Zolciak didn't mention how she was able to drop the weight so quickly, she did reveal that she gained nearly a whopping 50 pounds during her last pregnancy.
"To answer the questions I keep getting, Kane weighed 6lbs 14oz and Kaia weighed 6lbs even!!! Almost 13 lbs of baby! I gained almost 50lbs!" she said.
And it doesn't sound like Zolciak's diet is answer to her weight loss mystery.
"I eat pizza everyday," she stated.
She also added "I keep eating those Reese's peanut buttercup Christmas trees where's @ShunMelson I always feel better when someone eats them w/ me!"

Hurricane Dorian recovery efforts continue as crews work to clear debris, remove fallen trees from the public right of way, and restore traffic signals citywide.
Of the more than 100 emergency road closures reported at the height of the storm, 16 remain closed as of 7 p.m. tonight.
At this time, only 11 intersections are without power and are ready to be reset as soon as power is restored.
At the request of Mayor John Tecklenburg, Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin dispatched Traffic and Transportation crews from the city of Columbia to assist our city of Charleston crews with additional signal recovery efforts this weekend.
City offices and Municipal Courts will resume normal operations on Monday, September 9, as will recreation facilities. However, due to downed trees and debris, the Charleston Municipal Golf Course will remain closed until further notice.
With city crews currently focused on storm recovery, residential garbage and trash collection will remain suspended through the weekend and is set to resume on Monday. Commercial garbage collection is projected to take place on Saturday.
When placing debris at the curb for collection, citizens should sort based on the following (C.H.E.A.T.) categories:
C – Construction debris (building materials, drywall, lumber, carpet, furniture, etc.)
H – Hazardous waste (oils, batteries, pesticides, paints, cleaning supplies, etc.)
E – Electronics (televisions, computers, radios, stereos, DVD players/VCRs, etc.)
A – Appliances (Refrigerators, washers/dryers, freezers, air conditioners, stoves, etc.)
T – Trees and vegetation (tree branches, leaves and logs)
In order to allow crews to effectively clear streets of debris, city parking garages that were opened for the storm will remain open and free to residents until 1 p.m. on Sunday, September 8.
Tomorrow's Charleston Farmers Market remains cancelled. The West Ashley Farmers Market is expected to take place as scheduled on Wednesday, September 11.
The City Gallery will resume normal operations this weekend, and the Cannon Street Arts Center will reopen tomorrow for its matinee and evening performances.
The Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon, Old Slave Mart Museum and Maritime Center will return to normal operations tomorrow.
The Stormwater Department began their formal damage assessment process today and will continue working to identify storm-related damage in the coming weeks.
To help with the city's assessments, residents are asked to continue to report damage online at www.charleston-sc.gov/report-damage or by calling the city's Citizen Services Desk at 843-724-7311.
Citizens are reminded that nearly all storm damage-related repairs require building permits, which also protect property owners by ensuring that work performed is up to code. For additional information on building permit guidelines and requirements, please visit: https://www.charleston-sc.gov/856/Permit-Center

It isn't often that a street is named in honor of a newspaper, and then it's not important that it is just an unimpressive short street and not something over-the-top as Times Square with which the 'New York Times' was blessed even before the paper became the leading international news medium.
In Tomar, Rua do Jornal 'A Emancipação' stretches no longer than the length of two small apartment buildings on one side and the rear of five (semi-) detached homes across, on its west side; and after an open space five or six attached homes on each side before ending at a T, beyond which begins farmland. It feels good to live on this street in Tomar's east end, in an apartment that looks out over the city to the castle on the hill, built in 1160, and the Convento de Cristo monastery of great fame, dating back to the 1600s. It feels good that I can mention this street's unusual name on my business card—not that I use one. Emancipation, that's better than a street named after a less than majestic monarch, noble nincompoop, calamitous colony, wasteful war, degenerate general, passé politician, or manipulating money manager.
Jornal 'A Emancipação' was an early participant to the debate about the necessity of social change in Portugal. It became, on February 2, 1879, the first newspaper sold on the streets of Tomar—a weekly founded and edited by Angelina Casimira do Carmo e Silva Vidal (what's in a Portuguese name…) and managed to survive not even a year. This was less dramatic than it sounds, because it was immediately followed by 'A Verdade' (The Truth) founded by Vidal's friend Antonio da Silva Magelhães, one of the first professional photographers of the country, and his paper made it into the twentieth century. The Truth—Pravda—De Waarheid—La Verité—Sanningen… all over the world news media leaning towards socialism or dominated by communist views worked under the same name, almost a banner, even if not each of them took the truth all too serious and thus helped laying the foundations of what we now understand to be fake news. Although 'A Verdade', as 'A Emancipação', was a serious and sincere reporter of the truth. Silva Magelhães printed both these newspapers in his 'Imprensa La Merveille'.
Tomar got started by the Romans under the name of Sellium. Later came the Moors from North-Africa who remained for some 500 years and named the settlement Tamaramá, which stood for "sweet water", an appropriate name because of its location on the fast-running clear-water Nabão. The name was changed to Thomar when the Knights Templar built their huge castle in 1160 and by 1600, at the time the Convento de Cristo was added, to Tomar. Until Magelhães opened his photo studio (in 1862) and started to document contemporary town life not many images had depicted Tomar or the Tomarese; today, the municipality archives are proud to preserve his whole impressive oeuvre.
It is no wonder that Tomar was one of the first Portuguese towns to have a newspaper. Its long history as a seat of government (the castle was a sort of headquarters of the Knights Templar; the famous King Henry the Navigator lived in Tomar while his explorers sailed the world seas) had created a prosperous town that, although it remained small, became one of the first in the country, after Lisbon, Porto, Elvas and Vila Real, to receive electricity (in 1901) and was one of the first to open a movie theater, only six years after cinema's invention.
Yet, Tomar was too small for Angelina Vidal. Born in 1847 or 1851 in a middle-class family, she aimed to conquer the whole of Portugal. Writing for scores of young newspapers and magazines, and speaking at labor conventions and protest demonstrations north and south, east and west, she devoted her talents to the improvement of the living conditions of the working class, to the emancipation of men and women alike, and to the education of their children. She was a militant journalist, writer, translator, playwright, freethinker, and teacher. A strong public speaker, she (fascinated by French revolutionary history) drew crowds even in Paris where she, in her thinking about social change a moderate in the line of Danton and Condorcet rather than Marat and Robespierre, was compared to the rebellious Olympe de Gouge who, found not being extreme enough, died under the knife of the guillotine. Vidal at one time was invited to duel with someone who felt offended by a poem she wrote for 'Jornal de Abrantes'; luckily (for her challenger, because she was a most ferocious woman) the duel was cancelled at the last moment.
In Vidal's time, Portuguese monarchy was approaching its final days. Trade unions were founded left and right, protests became the order of the day, all kinds of republican dreams were energetically discussed. Vidal wrote much for 'A Voz do Operário', a workers' paper whose owners also founded a cooperative to work for the establishment of schools and libraries (in a country then with maybe 40% literacy), cultural centers and orchestras (music being viewed as an important instrument for creating strong communities). She and most of her colleague-journalists at 'A Voz' were not connected to a specific political view or party. The Partida Socialista was still small in the early days. Vidal stood closest to Partida Progressista, others to Partido Regenerador. There was also a Centro Regenerador Liberal, whose leader, João Franco, became prime minister for a short time until he was accused even by likeminded patriots of behaving like a Messiah: "You have banned our conservative parties. You have replaced our parties. You have in fact replaced every one of us." Rather a predecessor of the other Franco, and Castro, Trump, Putin, Maduro, Erdogan, Salazar, etcetera, etcetera.
These were the best of times, like ours (with Trump, May, etcetera), for satirists. Humor was much needed to make life bearable and became a strong weapon in the fight against silly politicians and recalcitrant royalists and other ultra-conservatives. But regicide was needed before the Republic could be established and by then it was 1908. Of course, social improvement needed more than merely a new constitutional form; and Vidal kept finding plenty of issues attack or causes to support. She was one of the first to signal that the main reasons for so many people emigrating (in some years more than 150,000 of a total population of four million) were the miserable conditions of the lowest classes and the blind alleys of so many others who were trying to climb up. She wrote about the dangerous, often life-threatening working conditions in phosphorus and cotton factories. Her battles for female emancipation became more explicit: "However decent a woman may be, she has a hard time avoiding being pushed into prostitution." Her activism destroyed her personal life. After losing her parents at a young age, one of her children died, and her husband (a doctor serving with the Portuguese Navy) left her and arranged she, "this revolutionist woman", did not get custody of her other children. She would have been a worthy contributor to the present day discussion, although I expect she'd be disappointed to find so much emancipation work still to be done in the twenty-first century.
Few activists of her time appreciated that in reality Vidal was rather an evolutionist. She stood for the democracy of an orderly society, a controlled economy, controlled agrarian and industrial modernizations, a free press, decentralization of government, education for all, and separation of church and state but with respect for all faiths and believers. She condemned the murder of the king, Dom Carlos I: "The Republic does not gain anything from regicide!" and was attacked for her moderation. In the end she was too balanced in her views to become one of Portuguese history's really great ones. Nevertheless, in the twenty-first century there are cultural foundations and welfare organizations carrying her name; there is a street named after her in Lisbon's old Graça district; and the Portuguese postal services CTT put out a series of stamps dedicated to Vidal and a few other "Great Women of the Republic"; while in the Ajuda botanical gardens an oak was planted in her name.
Vidal could never have dreamed of the honors ultimately to be bestowed on her. She could never have dreamed that in Tomar a street would be named after her first step as an activist journalist, and that a Dutchman arriving from North-America would come to live there one-hundred years after her demise and write about her Jornal 'A Emancipação' and her personal history. Angelina Vidal died on a street in Lisbon in 1917, in great poverty, after long years of slaving for the wellbeing of Portuguese men and women and granting most of her earnings as a journalist and an author to the causes she fought for.
In 2018, three local newspapers are published in Tomar (with a population of 20,000 living in town plus again 20,000 in the district): 'O Templário' (since 1925), 'Cidade de Tomar' (since 1935) and 'Despertar do Zêzere' (since 1979). Apparently the Portuguese still love to receive their news in print.

The buffering should be designed so that the stream can be interrupted at any time, and the result should be the same as taking a snapshot at some point.

Felix Klein Lectures
The Equations Defining Projective Varieties
Videos can be found on the him lectures youtube channel.
Speaker: Robert Lazarsfeld (Stony Brook University)
Date: January 6-22, 2014; Tuesdays and Thursdays, 10:15-12:00
Venue: HIM lecture hall, Poppelsdorfer Allee 45
Over the past thirty years there has been considerable interest in questions related in one way or another to the algebraic properties of projective varieties. On the one hand, classical results about defining equations of curves and abelian varieties have emerged as the first cases of more general statements for higher syzygies, and the picture for general smooth varieties has started to come into focus. In terms of a natural measure of algebraic complexity, a fascinating but still mysterious dichotomy has emerged between the behavior of nonsingular varieties and arbitrary schemes.
Although the questions are algebraic in origin, a wide variety of sophisticated geometric tools have been used to study them. These include for example the geometry of vector bundles, vanishing theorems for multiplier ideals, Fourier-Mukai transforms on abelian varieties and the geometry of Hilbert schemes.
This lecture series will attempt to provide a broad survey of this circle of ideas, aimed particularly at geometrically-oriented algebraic geometers. I plan to organize the lectures around the algebraic questions, but to focus particularly on the various geometric tools that have been used to study them. I will also discuss many open problems in the area.

Whew. Brandon was definitely not thrilled with me after this conversation. If you've seen my Windows Live Messenger personal message the last couple days, I said "The next build of Vista will rock your world." It led to a very interesting discussion with Brandon about "expectations", and what RC1 will shape up to be. Brandon and I both have seen the progress that has been made since 5472, and up until a couple weeks ago, I was ****ed at the level of (in)stability Vista still exhibited so close to RC1. My public statement to that fact led to more traffic on this site than I had seen in quite some time.
So what could make me change my mind so quickly? I got a sneak peek at the build TechBeta testers will receive (hopefully) soon. I won't go into details now, but suffice it to say, tt will have been worth the wait. Brandon's all hung up on UI, and that's fine. I'm not as picky as Brandon and Pirillo are (although I don't know how many people complaining it will take until they get Win 3.1 UI out of the OS). I just want to be able to use it on a daily basis without it hosing my computer in one form or another. And I wouldn't mind having my system be quick enough to be, God forbid, productive. I'm on a dual core 3GHz box with 3GB of RAM for Pete's sake... I ought to be able to have an app pop right up when I launch it.
So what are my expectations? Well, my new WLM message reads: "If you haven't experienced anything since 5472, the next Vista build will rock your world." Is it finished yet? Hell no. I still don't think the next milestone should be called a "release candidate". But it gives me hope. And I'm patient enough to accept that (for the time being).
(Oh, and I hear Microsoft is going to "get creative" with this release's name. Microsoft's really struck out with the way they handled build names up to this point, so we should really be in for a treat.)

I found this gem while flipping through Meta Given's Modern Encyclopedia of Cooking. Originally written in 1947, my copy is from 1959. Beverage recipes containing alcohol are noticeably absent from Given's cookbook, with menus noting that meals should be accompanied by coffee for adults, and milk for children.
Sauerkraut Juice Cocktail
No. 2 1/2 can sauerkraut juice, 3 1/2 cups
3 pimiento stuffed olives
3/4 tsp whole caraway seed
1 tsp sugar
Pour juice into a glass jar. Add finely chopped olives, caraway, and sugar, pounded to a powder. Screw on lid and chill until ready to serve, but do not let stand more than a few hours. STrain and serve cold. If desired, tie seed in cheesecloth bag and remove just before serving. 8 to 10 servings.
The recipe sounds like an abberation of 1950s cooking, but upon checking the NYPL What's on the Menu Project? database of menus, sauerkraut juice cocktail appears on several menus from 1933 to 1954. See The Hotel Commodor's menu from June 1, 1933 below.

Stereotactic radiation is a type of external radiation therapy that precisely delivers radiation to a tumor. Its highly focused radiation is non-invasive and painless, often with minimal effects on surrounding tissue. The effectiveness of treatment is often very high, depending on the location of the tumor, what critical structures are close to the tumor, and the size and type of the tumor.

From Globetrotting to home bound, it must be a big transformation for the Big Celebs of Bollywood, I wonder! Well, the current situation doesn't indulge disparities, so we all are in together. If there have been so many changes in our lives, what's going on with our favorite celebs is always in our mind. I took a sneak peek into the lives of my favorites.
"Ek baar jo maine commitment kar di, toh phir main khudki bhi…," I am a huge Salman Khan fan so it's obvious taankh jhaank wahi se start hogi 😊
So, the Being Human Star is at his Panvel Farm House with few family members and friends. The multi-talented actor has taken to his passion for singing by launching his album on his new YouTube channel. Three songs have been released and it has crossed 20 million views already. I really liked the beautiful, 'Tera Bina.'
Another star who is in the limelight on Instagram, YouTube and Tiktok as well – Kartik Aaryan.
The actor who gained popularity for his monologues in Pyaar Ka Punchnama movies was one of the first to spread the message about the current situation. His monologue went viral on social media and again was a hit with his audience. He started a series called 'Koki Poochega,' where he has been interviewing the front liners and understanding how they are dealing with the current situation, quite thoughtful I must say. Have you had a look at his Tiktok channel? With over 2.7m followers, he is killing it there. Enjoyed it!
Shilpa Shetty another Bollywood Diva who is not only recognised for her acting talents but also her dance, yoga and cooking skills has been rocking another digital platform – Tiktok.
If one needs a good break then her Tiktok channel should be your stop – there is a variety to watch. I enjoy her cooking videos, which carry some simple yet fantastic recipes. The funny remakes tickle your funny bone. Tiktok as a platform has really grown as a social media platform with a plethora of options to watch and some great features.
Well when you talk about celebrities you can't forget our Koffee with Karan host – Karan Johar.
From 'Nepotism to Conjecture' his love to be in the limelight is known to all. He has been demonstrating that going grey is cool as well for the celebs. Well, in the current times the cute videos of his little ones, Yash and Roohi, have been stealing all attention.
Everyone is evolving with the changing dynamics and it gives us one message – One mustn't stop when you are hit with road blocks. Instead we can pave a new road ahead!

John Bunyan's famous book "Pilgrim's Progress" is all about the journey towards the Celestial City. The story tells about all the obstacles and problems and blessings "Christian", and his fellow travel companions face. If you have not read this story, get a modern translation and put this at the top of your MUST read list for this year.
Reading Psalm 121 as the first Psalm for the year yesterday is filled with such promise. It is a Psalm of accent. Meaning that as the Israelites of old travelled along the pathways up to Jerusalem they sang this song of trust in God's protection as they travelled. Read it.
Looking to God for help in every aspect of our lives, trusting him for every outcome of every situation is core to our journey up to the "Celestial City".
We need to embrace the presence of God in every aspect of our walk. What lies ahead this year is beyond our knowledge. Take hold of the promises whatever the challenges might be. And when we get side tracked, return to his word, his guidance, his protection, his forgiveness, his grace and his mercy and love.
You may have some new years resolutions, or like me you may have a TO DO list that is scary, challenges I have no idea how to deal with or cope with. But as we move up into the new year, look up to God, remember Psalm 121 in the dark times and be encouraged.

Just about everyone knows credit card fraud is becoming a major problem, with that massive Target breach a few months back the latest reminder.
The retailer noted that some 40 million customers had their credit or debit information stolen by hackers, another sign that not enough has been done to protect electronic payment systems in this country.
Credit card fraud is pretty much a sure thing at this point; I cant remember the last time 12 months have gone by without a call from one of my credit card issuers informing me of suspected fraud.
Unfortunately, every time this happens, and I have to deal with the fraud department, take the time to cancel my credit card, and wait for another to arrive in the mail.
Despite numerous occurrences, nothing seems to have changed. I've even told the fraud department to tell their higher-ups to create a more secure system. It has become an absolute joke at this point.
Chip and Pin Credit Cards on the Way In, Finally
Thankfully, credit card issuers in the United States will soon migrate to a "chip and pin" system, which will pretty much make the magnetic stripe a thing of the past (it will remain, but won't be used as often).
It's already in place overseas, perhaps because of the transient nature of places like Europe and Asia.
And rather ironically, we're only getting on board with chip and pin because our outdated credit card security has deemed us an easier threat to worldwide hackers.
In a nutshell, chip and pin credit cards look just like our current credit cards, except for the fact that they have a square metallic microprocessor on the front.
As a result, the chip and pin credit card is inserted face up into a slot, as opposed to being swiped on one end through a card reader.
As far as the pin portion, that just means punching in a pin code, as you would with a debit card transaction.
It's unclear if merchants will require the pin, or simply allow customers to sign as they currently do, in which case it will be "chip and signature."
I personally prefer the pin, seeing that it adds another layer of defense, which could mean I won't have to deal with my fraud department anytime soon.
In any case, the chip and pin credit card migration is expected to take place by October 2015.
What About a System That Proves You're In Possession of Your Credit Card?
In the mean time, MasterCard and Syniverse have announced a new opt-in service that allows credit card transactions to take place only when users have their mobile device handy.
It works by taking note of the user's specific geolocation, so the phone must be switched on with data enabled.
Then, if the user attempts to make a credit card transaction, the system determines if the phone and credit card are in the same area.
If they're not, the transaction will be declined. A real-world example would be a NYC-based business traveler working abroad in London.
The system will know if someone is trying to use his or her credit card fraudulently back home if the phone is currently in London.
Not only does it prevent fraud, but it also ensures cardholders aren't denied for legitimate purposes as well. Apparently anywhere between 50-80% of legit transactions are declined abroad…
[Best credit cards to use while abroad.]
Of course, this requires users to actually turn on their mobile devices while abroad, which can be quite expensive.
In the future, the technology could also be used to send targeted offers to users based on their location and proximity to certain retail shops.
It's actually a pretty good idea, though there is the chance of losing your phone and your credit card at once!

We've started harvest at the Domaine de l'Arjolle and the Château de Margon on the 20th of August by picking our first Sauvignon blanc. Mid September, all our grapes for the white wines are in, except the Chardonnay for the Dernière Cueillette and the Muscat for or late harvest cuvee Lyre.
Rainfalls in early September were profitable to our red varieties. The vineyards look splendid with their bright and deep green leafs, and we can even see the revival of our herbal undergrowth between the vines.
In the cellar, fermentations go very well and the first white wines show an astonishing aromatic potential. Juices of the early Merlot, Grenache and Syrah, brought in for our rosé Méridienne, are fresh and balanced and presume a vintage "on the fruit".
In a general way, our first impressions of this year's harvest are rather positive. But there is still a lot of work to do, and so we'll come back to you in November with a final report on this vintage.

Former Bucks' forward Darington Hobson had been on the Golden State Warriors' radar dating back to about a year and a half ago.
After being waived by Milwaukee midway through the 2011-12 season, Hobson was claimed by the Dakota Wizards, the then D-League affiliate of Golden State. That summer, the forward worked out for the Warriors again in Las Vegas, and the organization opted to bring him along with them to Santa Cruz this past season, where they went on to own and operate their own NBADL squad.
Though he never ended up receiving an NBA call-up last season, Hobson still made a worthy case for doing so by playing a big role for Santa Cruz. As sixth man for a team that went all the way to the D-League Finals, the forward averaged 9.2 points, 6 rebounds, and 4.2 assists through 36 games.
Hobson is the type of player who can light it up and score in bunches, but also fade away offensively perhaps just as quickly. The immense amount of scoring talent in Santa Cruz may have very well played into that, but nevertheless, Hobson still likes to prove he can always contributes in other ways as well.
Through he stepped up big through the first two rounds of the NBADL postseason, Hobson went on to struggle in rather limited minutes during The Finals against the Rio Grande Valley Vipers. Perhaps that went into the Warriors' decision to leave him unprotected during the league's expansion draft for the Delaware 87ers, who snatched him right up earlier this summer.
While Hobson is arguably one of the more talented players the 87ers drafted this offseason, it seems as though he won't be hitting the minor league hardwood for them come November. Instead, a source tells RidiculousUpside.com that the forward is instead poised to sign a deal in the CBA for the coming season.
By signing with a team in China, Hobson is likely to forgo any "NBA out" clause he would normally be accustomed to when signing an international deal with another team overseas. That said, the CBA concludes its season a little bit earlier than other international leagues, making it possible for Hobson to come home to the states and cash in on his success by catching on with an NBA team if so desired.
Though the Warriors essentially let the 87ers take Hobson away, they could have, nevertheless, still invited him to NBA training camp had they wanted to. Instead, RidiculousUpside.com has learned exclusively that two of his Santa Cruz teammates (Cameron Jones and Scott Machado) are expected to be in camp instead. What's more, Stephen Curry's little brother, Seth, is expected to be in town for that as well. Needless to say, Hobson wasn't at all too pleased about that (see his Twitter).

The Facilities Department of the New Haven Public Schools will plan for and provide the highest quality environment for safety and wellness. We will work as a team with efficiency, professionalism and excellence in support of the Schools' mission and the needs of our community. The New Haven Public Schools, as part of the city's Green and Sustainable initiative, are instituting a recycling program. The purpose of the program is to save the world's dwindling resources. It is also in concert with the State of Connecticut's sustainable movement.
To allow the program to function most efficiently, we will need the cooperation of everyone in the school system. The collection and shipment of the large quantities of recyclables is a huge undertaking that together we will be able to accomplish. Below is a flow chart that explains the single stream recycling system.
Americans use about 680 pounds of paper per person a year, along with 267 aluminum cans per person, and over 2,500,000 plastic bottles an hour! The opportunity to make a real difference in the real world is in front of us. Please join us in making a difference.
Instead of separating different types of recyclables at school, they are now separated at the recycling facility. Single Stream Recycling improves recycling rates by making it easier to recycle a wide variety of materials that would go in the trash.
