It was near the end of August when Roddenberry.com (a merchandise and publicity outlet run by Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry, the son of Star Trek's creator) announced a contest. Readers were encouraged to take a given sample of one of the site's two comic strips and provide pithy, fan-relevant dialog for its blanked-out speech balloons.
I figured I'd give it a try, having dabbled in comics for a year or two in college while working on the student newspaper. The modern-day strip in question is one of several amusing means by which the Roddenberry organization attempts to maintain fan interest in a franchise whose copyright holder appears to have lost almost all interest in promoting, J.J. Abrams' movie notwithstanding.
I wouldn't have bothered except for the flimsy connection I maintain with the organization by two frayed threads. My first exposure to Roddenberry.com was through its earlier incarnation, Lincoln Enterprises, a means by which the Roddenberry family could market Trek and related sf television memorabilia. Through most of the 1970s, I was the avid fanboy who perused their catalogs, wishing I had the disposable income to indulge myself with something more than the handful of scripts, storyboards, and film clips I still possess.
The second connection is more tenuous, but it's my source material for the contest entry. A few years ago, Rod participated in and gave further support to a fairly successful fan effort which attempts to continue the original Star Trek storyline from its NBC cancellation in 1969. My discovery of this operation led me, by various means, to volunteer for two of their episode shoots in upstate New York. The experience, as with every other volunteer group I've ever been involved with, yielded both joy and frustration. It is the latter which I attempted to express with my contest entry.
For context, the cartoonist's original (which relates the fictive adventures of a young Gene Roddenberry):
The original blank:
My version:
Yeah, I talk a lot.
I was informed on 11 September that I'd won the grand prize. My prize arrived shortly afterwards.
How odd. I'd figured my sarcasm was just an indulgence on my part and of limited appeal to anyone else. I'm glad to be proven wrong in this case.

Can monetary policy solve the problems besetting the Thai economy?
Economy July 17, 2014 00:00
By THE NATION
7,095 Viewed
The three problems faced by the Thai economy are a slow growth rate, increasing inflation and a fluctuating exchange rate. On the first point, it has been predicted by many famous institutions such as the Bank of Thailand and the National Institute of Dev
In general, there are two main policies involving the economy, which are fiscal policy and monetary policy. Fiscal policy is used by government and monetary policy is used by the central bank. The way each policy is used will have different effects on the economy. Therefore, it is important for business to analyse which policy will be used in what way.
Given the situation in Thailand, it is better that we not talk about fiscal policy. Here, we will analyse how monetary policy can be used to deal with the three problems mentioned above. The main question is which problems the monetary policy should focus on.
Monetary policy vs GDP
According to economic theory, in order to stimulate the economy, the Bank of Thailand has to increase the money supply, which will cause market interest rates to decrease, leading to increased investment and finally GDP growth. Therefore the effectiveness of monetary policy depends on 1) whether increasing the money supply has an effect on interest rates and 2) the response of investors to interest rates.
With the political situation in Thailand, investors consider political risk as the main factor, so the decisions they make do not depend on interest rates as much as in the past. As a result, investment will not be responsive to interest rates. Moreover, the Thai policy interest rate is already low at about 2 per cent. This means decreasing the policy rate would have little effect on money supply, and consequently little effect on market interest rates. Therefore, to use monetary policy to stimulate economic growth in this situation will not be optimal.
Monetary policy vs inflation
Monetary policy can reduce inflation by reducing the demand for goods and services. In the Thai economy, inflation is caused by increasing energy prices and wages, which is supply-side. That means prices are increased because of costs increasing. Inflation caused by cost-push will lead to an increase in prices and decrease in GDP. Reducing inflation by monetary policy is done by decreasing the money supply, so interest rates will rise and investment will decline.
Monetary policy vs exchange rate
Because of global trends such as technology and the regulatory openness of each country, the linkage between each economy is stronger and faster. Change in one economy, especially a big economy, will affect others faster and to a higher degree. Therefore, the effect on the exchange rate from such changes will be greater and quicker.
Appreciation or depreciation of a currency can have both good and bad effects on the economy. For example, many people may think that devaluing the currency is good for an economy because the country can export more. But devaluation can also cause inflation, so everyone in the economy will be hurt. Moreover, the quick response can create variations in the exchange rate, which implies more risk for international firms. Therefore, we must keep the exchange rate at the optimal level and decrease its variation.
Another role of the Bank of Thailand is to control the exchange rate. Since developed countries such as those in North America and Europe and Japan attempt to use monetary policy to help their economies, the world's money quantity fluctuates, creating speculation across regions. So exchange-rate movement does not represent the economy, which will follow the speculation. The exchange rate will fluctuate a lot. This means the Bank of Thailand should focus on what the optimal exchange rate is for the Thai economy and reduce the fluctuation of the baht.
In conclusion, monetary policy has less effectiveness on stimulating growth than fiscal policy. Fluctuation of the exchange rate can become a problem for the economy. There are some links between inflation and exchange rates, but inflation should not be the target of the Bank of Thailand. Therefore, monetary policy should target an appropriate exchange rate while reducing exchange-rate variation.

How Computershare are making a sustainable commute easy, convenient and safe
To meet its objective of increasing sustainable commuting, Computershare's sustainable travel plan focuses on five forms of transport: cycling, walking, bus travel, train travel and car travel.
"We're proud to play a role in our community and help Bristol, the West of England and our planet become greener, safer and cleaner"
Computershare's efforts have focused on making it easier, safer and convenient for staff to use sustainable transport, so much so that they won the 'Most Improved Work Place' in the 2014 Travelwest Sustainable Travel Awards.
Computershare's new bike shed opened on 30 September 2014 following a grant of £20,000 from the Local Sustainable Transport Fund and a company investment of £67,539. Decision makers supported the investment because it was in line with Computershare's sustainability goals and travel philosophy. The existing facility was in poor repair and they were able to undertake the project as an extension to refurbishment works already completed. This new facility is more secure than the previous shed, boasts easy access to shower and changing facilities, and has capacity for 165 bikes – 99 more than before. Solar panels provide a sustainable light source.
Cycle commuters also benefit from vastly improved shower and changing facilities, with access to secure lockers and a drying room. The presence of the gym showers has also encouraged non-members to carry out other activities (mainly jogging) during lunch breaks.
The annual charity cycle ride is a much-loved event which improves staff awareness of cycling. With a choice of routes from 30 miles, all levels of fitness can get involved. Employees were encouraged to cycle to work as part of their training and free spinning classes in the on-site gym proved hugely popular. This year over £16,000 was raised. Additionally absenteeism is at a record low for Computershare and they put this down to the regular use of the gym by staff.
Image courtesy of Computershare
Computershare got behind National Cycle to Work day, offering a free breakfast for every cycle-commuter. Free bike maintenance services were available for both the annual charity ride and Cycle to Work day – a great way to give staff confidence to wheel out their old steed!
Computershare has worked tirelessly this year to improve cycle safety by lobbying the Council to consider a cycle path along the A38. Over 200 employees support the proposition with corporate-neighbour Bristol Water also adding its voice to the campaign.
Many staff live within a three mile radius of Computershare offices and staff are actively encouraged to take to the pavement. Local walking routes are provided to staff on the company intranet using a map data web site Walkit.com which provides routes tailored for walking. A second walking resource is a link to Google Maps, pre-populated with postcodes of the local train station and the office which gives a map and directions for the route to and from work with one click. A 'Walk to Work' day is even on the cards.
Bus Travel
Computershare pays for a free-to-use double-decker bus service which follows a route decided as part of a staff survey, with various convenient stops from the city to the office each morning and evening. The service has around 11% of employees using it each week. Even though the bus service is a considerable outlay each year, the investment was made because public transport to and from the site was poor and on-site parking limited, so it was required to attract and retain good quality employees.
Train Travel
Computershare offers an annual season ticket loan scheme for train travel.
Car Travel
An in-house car-sharing service has operated for over 15 years, with 10% of employees using it to find fellow employees to share the driving duties to and from work.

It seems Audrey's unforgettable style and beauty will never cease to inspire. The November issue of Vanity Fair has also come over all Audrey, with a scene by scene tribute to Funny Face featuring the latest couture. The editorial sounds awesome in theory, but in practice doesn't quite work for me. I'm not sure whether it's the layout, the model or the particular choice of expensive clothes (come to think of it, that surely can't be it), but for me it comes across as a little bit budget and twee. Surprising, as Vanity Fair has featured some of my favourite classic Hollywood inspired shoots ever.
Let me know your opinion if you've picked up the November issue too.

The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship and comparisons of athletic amenorrhea and bone mineral density in adolescent, cross-country runners. Subjects: Twenty-eight female adolescent cross-country runners (Mean Age + SD = 15.0 + 1.3 years); consisting of seventeen eumenorrheics & eleven amenorrheics. Design: The design consisted of a sixmonth longitudinal design in which the subjects were measured before and after cross-country season for height, weight, and lean tissue (LT), body fat (BF), bone mineral content (BMC), and bone mineral density (BMD) using whole-body scan densitiometry with a Lunar Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometer (DXA). Run performance, weekly training volumes, menstrual dysfunction, menarchal age, nutritional information, and stress fractures were reported by the subjects. Statistical analyses consisted of Pearson product-moment and partial correlations to examine the associations of the variables, paired t-tests to measure seasonal body composition changes, multivariate analysis (MANOVA & MANCOVA) to investigate the subgroup differences of variables, and simple linear regression to determine the best body composition predictor variable for BMD. Results: The eumenorrheic subgroup's BMD was significantly greater than the amenorrheic subgroup's BMD (F(1, 54) = 16.22, p<.05, partial h² =.231). The eumenorrheic subgroup's bodyweight (F(1, 54) = 7.65, p<.05, partial h² =.124), BF (F(1, 54) = 8.56, p<.05, partial h² =.137), and BMC (F(1, 54) = 8.52, p<.05, partial h² =.136) were significantly greater than the amenorrheic subgroup. There was also a significant seasonal increase in BMD (t(27) = -4.01, p <.05) for the overall group. Bodyweight was the body composition component that best predicted BMD (F(1, 26) = 46.434, p<.05, R² =.641). There were no significant subgroup differences with respect to run performance, stress fractures, and nutritional supplementation. Conclusions: Athletic amenorrhea was highly associated with lower levels of BMD in adolescent, cross-country runners. Athletic amenorrhea was also highly associated with lower levels of bodyweight, BF, and BMC in adolescent cross-country runners. Finally, cross-country running was highly associated with increased BMD in adolescent athletes. Implications: The long-term implication of the study is that subjects with lower levels of BMD may be at a greater risk of osteoporosis. Recommendations: Educate and instruct runners to utilize proper training methods so the healthful benefits of crosscountry running, as well as improved performance, are obtained.

Where's @Facebook's Safety Advisory Board?
THE HUFFINGTON POST'S Larry Magid (@larrymagid), tech journalist & 'internet safety activist', wrote:
'As a member of Facebook's Safety Advisory Board, I can assure you that policy decisions in these two areas is not easy, but the company — with our help — has done its best to create nuanced policies that allow for artistic and political freedom while at the same time trying to maintain an environment that is respectful and inoffensive...On nudity, for example, Facebook explains that it removes photographs of "people displaying genitals or focusing in on fully exposed buttocks" and that, though they "restrict some images of female breasts if they include the nipple," they "always allow photos of women actively engaged in breastfeeding or showing breasts with post-mastectomy scarring," and artistic images that show nudity.
Facebook also bans hate speech including content that attacks people based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, sex or gender identity or serious disabilities and diseases, and the company will sometimes allow people to share someone else's hate speech "for the purpose of raising awareness or educating others about that hate speech.'

I woke up sick this morning, too, so I feel you!ReplyDelete
Love the crocheted gloves, but the knit-houndstooth---that's amazing. Technically I know the rudiments of crochet and knitting (a bit more crochet than knit) but like you, these just defeat me.
Those blouse decorations look like heirloom sewing techniques. Those defeat me, too. :)
Get well soon!
Aww, I love the baby romper- that's darling! I started crocheting some gloves a few weeks ago and so far, they aren't as difficult as they look. I found a free pattern for them on freevintagecrochet.comReplyDelete
Well, I love your magazine posts! They're so inspiring. I hope that your cold goes away soon. I hate that "I need to drill a hole in my head" feeling- just awful!! :(
I really enjoy these, please don't stop doing them! They are a look into a different worldReplyDelete
I love vintage sewing and knitting/crochet patterns! I especially like ones from 1945 and earlier. Please continue to share them!ReplyDelete
I enjoy looking at these patterns but it hurts my brain to contemplate actually making any of them!ReplyDelete
Obviously people had much for time for handwork before television took over. That and craft magazines have at least one insane project per issue ;)
Oh, I can't believe I missed your fabulous jacket photo-shoot, it looks amazing! So slick and sharp! The story was fun too, but can you satisfy my curiosity and tell who was the "you-know-who" who inspired this style? Sorry for sounding dumb...ReplyDelete
Thank you for your comment abut my dress, and yes, like you I am starting to crave some more interesting and creative photography for my work.
And I just thought I would tell you about another self seamstress and blogger http://thedressimade.com/
She recently posted about a clothing swap to be held in the Hague, I think you are in that area too??
Ooh, I love vintage craft! It is so inspiring and reminds me so of my grand mother. After having seen some of Madelaine Vionnet's drawn threadwork on dresses, I long to try out the technique. That tulip table cloth is amazing. Having dabbled a bit in both knitting and cross stitch, I think most of those projects would be fairly straightforward and not that time consuming (though I would probably find a good audio book to listen to while I worked). In particular the knit houndstooth jacket would be simple to make, as it is simply a four row pattern which is easily learnt by heart.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 9, 2011 at 12:29 PM
Looks all pretty advanced. Sorry to hear about your flu and cursed work- damn.ReplyDelete
I cannot imagine knitting that houndstooth jacket...life is too short. And I never understood the fancy table cloth: if tablecloths are made to protect a table from spills and scratches, what protects the uber-fancy tablecloth? ;)ReplyDelete
I'd love to see some photos of your drafting in action!

Formal Letter Template
When you write formal letter template one thing you have to know is the difference of informal letter and formal letter. The informal letter usually is used when we talk about personal situation for example: it is using in friendly letter, thank you letter, and so on. Meanwhile formal letter template is used when we talk about in formal situation such as language, format, and tones. it is usually used in application letter for job, resignation letter, and so on.
when you write formal letter template the most important thing is a good layout of letter, It shows that you are able to create a professional, clear, simple and direct to the point.

2. Greeting and salutation: Basically used are " Dear Sir or Madam," if you do not personally know the name of the person you are writing to though it is much preferable to find out the name. You can also use "Dear Mr. (name)," if you know the name of the person. You can also use other titles such as Mrs, Mr, Miss, Dr, Ronald, and many others. After the title, write only the surname of the person you are writing to. If you do not know whether a woman is using Miss or Mrs, use the title "Ms" for it is referred for both single and married women.

Fall 2014 Final Exams.
•Exam Schedule. The final exam schedule for the current semester is available here. You will be notified of the classroom assignments for your exams prior to the start of exam period.
•Exam Conflict/Reschedule Requests: October 23-November 3. The Student Handbook requires that you take your final exams at the times scheduled unless you have an exam conflict (as defined below), or you have a "serious illness or other extraordinary or compelling reason" beyond your control. If you have an exam conflict or believe you have other reasons justifying the rescheduling of an exam, please complete the Final Exam Reschedule form. To complete the form, log into Web for Students and navigate to the Final Exam Reschedule form in the left-hand menu. The form will be available beginning Thursday, October 23; the deadline for submitting an exam reschedule request is Monday, November 3, at 5:00 pm. If your request is approved, you will be notified later this semester of the rescheduled date, time, and location of your exam.
Under current policy, a student is deemed to have an "exam conflict" if the student has two exams at the same time, or has two or more exams within 24 hours (e.g., exams at 8:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., or at 6:00 p.m. and 1:15 the following afternoon). A conflict does not exist if two exams are scheduled exactly 24 hours apart (e.g., exams at 8:30 a.m. one morning and 8:30 a.m. the next morning).
•Exams Method Registration: October 23-November 3. Students generally have three choices for taking most exams: hand writing the exam, taking the exam on their own laptop computer, or taking the exam on a lab computer. Some professors do not permit one or more of these options (e.g., some require all students to hand write the exam).
Assuming your professor has authorized you to take the exam on computer, we will assume you are taking the exam on your own laptop unless you submit an Exam Method form. You need to register your exam-taking method only if you wish to hand-write the exam, or take it on a lab computer (subject to space availability). Please check with your professor if you are uncertain whether computer use will be permitted for your exam. If you choose the lab computer option but there are not enough spaces available, we will conduct a lottery after the close of the exam method registration period to determine who can use the lab computers. (This usually is not necessary, but occasionally we have more requests than we can accommodate for lab computers.)
To complete the form, log into Web for Students and navigate to the Exam Method Registration form in the left-hand menu. The form will be available beginning Thursday, October 23; the deadline for submitting an exam method request is Monday, November 3, at 5:00 pm.
Notice about SofTest: Students taking exams on laptop must download and install the SofTest exam-taking program. You will receive information from the Information Technology Services department about when and how to do this. Even though you do not need to submit an Exam Method Registration form to use your laptop for exams, you do need to download and install SofTest. In addition, you must download the new version of SofTest even if you have an older version from a prior semester. You cannot use older versions of the program - you must have the new version of SofTest.
Unless a professor specifies otherwise, SofTest is configured to lock students out of other programs and services on their computers for the duration of the exam. This means that, unless a professor specifically authorizes access, students will not have access to notes, outlines, or other materials stored on their hard drive or the network.
Notice About Borrowing Laptops: The Information Technology Services department has a limited supply of laptop computers reserved for use in emergency situations that arise during exam period. These laptops may be used (subject to availability) if your computer has problems immediately before or during an exam, as long as the problem is not due to your failing to properly configure or register your laptop to run the SofTest program. Because of limited supply, the ITS department's laptops are not available for general loaning purposes during exam period. However, if you have exceptional circumstances that you believe justify borrowing a laptop for an exam, please contact Dean Sowle to discuss your situation.
Notice to Hand Writers: Students who are hand writing an exam will be placed in the same room used by laptop users for that exam. Hand writers will not be put in a separate room.

Today I have for you a cute little image from Emerald Faeries as my DT contribution to Southern Girls Card Challenge. I absolutely adore their faeries, and for our challenge it had to be "For The Boys", so this little chap has come to live with me :)
I coloured him and his noble steed in Copics, then used some clear Stickles on the little fairy's wings and some under the snail (for slime). I couldn't resist putting some googly eyes on the snail either!
For this card I used a Mojo Monday sketch and I've also added some bling, doodling and ribbon.
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Sentimental Sundays - Anything Goes
Whoopsi Daisy Challenge - Add a sentiment
Addicted to Stamps - Princesses or Fairies

I made this loom by attaching the fabric pieces to a very large book stand. The book stand can have the angle adjusted but it is positioned vertically even though it doesn't look that way in the video. If you don't have such a fancy books tand try cuttinb a heavy duty box and folding to create a triangular frame.
I happened to have a lot of sticky back felt that was provided by a recycling center program. It is green and I used it to hold the red fabric strands in place. I also got the red felt (not sticky back) from the same recycling center. I sewed each red strand to a horizontal strip of fabric and taped securely in place across the top of the stand. You can't see it because it is covered by the green felt. The blue plastic is cut from the bottom of an old tent.
I wasn't sure whether to work on weaving from top to bottom or left to right but working top to bottom seemed easiest to make and use.
My goals were to improve visual attention, manipulation skills, learn over and under concepts to weave and most importantly to sit up erect and reach upward for strengthening and to improve posture.

Step Falls
Attractions Category: Western Lakes & Mountains
Step Falls is a spectacular long chain of descending horsetails and cascades that lies a few miles outside of the eastern border of Grafton Notch State Park. Situated on a 24-acre property managed by the Mahoosuc Land Trust, a local organization dedicated to ?protecting and conserving land and traditional land uses.? Step Falls was acquired in 1962 by The Nature Conservancy and transferred to the Mahoosuc Land Trust in 2012. It has been a popular attraction for waterfall fanatics and swimming hole lovers for decades.
At Step Falls, Wight Brook, a wide mountain stream, meanders its way down several hundred feet of sunny granite slabs. During spring runoff, the water volume can supposedly reach up to 500 cubic feet per second. In the summer months, however, horsetails and plunges transform into skinny, nearly powerless slides, and dozens of water sculptured paths that existed in spring often dry up.
As if being one of the tallest falls in Maine is not enough, Step Falls also has numerous shallow pools, many of which offer fine places to wade and, in the slightly deeper of the pools, swim. The yellow-tinted water in the pools has a very clear and clean appearance. The largest pool at the site, approximately 40 feet long by 12 feet wide, is surrounded by several moss-surrounded horsetails that empty into the pool. Along the edges of the pools are broad, mostly flat, sunny granite slabs that meet every requirement for a relaxing picnic. Visitors should be aware that pets must be leashed and owners must clean up after them. Neighbors on all sides of the preserve request that visitors respect their private property and stay within the boundaries of the preserve.

News: Rescue Stops First Summit TeamEric Simonson - BasecampMon, May 07, 2001 3:30AMAbout the only thing we can be sure of on an Everest climb is that our plans are going to change. This was certainly the case yesterday, Sunday May 6. Our first summit team of Tap, Jake, and John had left Base Camp after breakfast and was making good time on their way up to ABC. At the same time, our two non guided climbers, Terry LaFrance and Mike Otis, who had both climbed up to Camp 5 on an acclimatization run the day before, were heading down to BC for a few rest days.
At about 11am Terry came on the radio, calling from about 20,000 feet, near the site of Camp 2. He had come across a bizarre entourage of four Chinese and one Tibetan carrying an unconscious Chinese man.
Terry's call to Base Camp on his 5 watt Icom walkie talkie was picked up by me (Eric) on the Base Station here. Terry's description of his condition (severe dificulty breathing) made it clear that this guy was in bad shape, likely suffering from Pulmonary Edema (see earlier dispatch from Dr. Lee Meyers on HACE and HAPE). I instructed Terry to help squeeze a nifedipine gelcap under his tongue, stabilize his airway, and help them carry the guy down. Mike, who left ABC a few minutes after Terry, soon joined them and offered additional horsepower for carrying this Chinese man down the rugged boulders of the East Rongbuk. I knew from past experience (in 1994 we had a Sherpa suffer a stroke at ABC, and had to evacuate him) that a carry to Base Camp would take a large number of people. At this point I talked to our Sherpas at Base Camp (who were enjoying a rest day) and told them we needed some people to go up and meet the crew coming down and provide help. Four of them volunteered immediately, and we sent them up at noon.
Shortly after this I was able to piece together the story of just who these Chinese people were. It turned out they were not climbers, but were in fact glaciologists from a Chinese University. They had driven all the way to Base Camp in four days, spent two days at BC, then gone immediately to ABC with Tibetan yaks. In eight days from sea level, they were at their 21,000 camp, a little below the main site of ABC. They were planning on studying the East Rongbuk glacier, and had brought equipment for drilling ice cores, etc. Most of them were graduate students, accompanied by a couple of professors. They had little if any high altitude experience.
Now one of their team mates was very sick, and his small procession was moving slowly down the glacier. At some point they were joined by some more Tibetans, who assisted with the carrying (after being promised money by the Chinese). At noon I talked to Tap, Jake, and John, who were getting close to IC, and told them that they were going to be running into this group of people coming down. Within the hour, they did, and they reported that the Chinese patient was indeed very sick, with bloody froth coming from his mouth, and difficulty breathing. At this point I had them administer another 10 mg of nifedipine, and sent John back to IC to get our emergency oxygen that we had stashed there. One of the accompanying Chinese informed Tap and Jake that there was another sick Chinese coming down behind them. Tap and Jake started up to investigate, and a few minutes later, they ran into a second Chinese patient, who had appeared out of nowhere. This guy had cerebral edema, and could barely walk. He was being assisted by a couple more Chinese glaciologists, who themselves were pretty sick. Another radio conversation followed, and it became clear that there were some pretty sick people up there, and that they all needed our help. At this point I told Tap and Jake to load the new patient up with dexamethasome and help him down.
Meanwhile the first entourage of Chinese, Tibetans, Terry, Mike, and the pulmonary edema patient (who now became known as Papa Echo on our radio transmissions) had made it to IC at 19,000 feet, where John had the oxygen ready to go (and a second bottle in reserve). At the same time, the cerebral edema patient (who we started calling Charley Echo on the radio) ceased being able to stumble any more, and Tap and Jake started taking turns piggy-backing him. Once John got the oxygen on Papa Echo, they were ready to go again, except that now the Tibetans who had been helping, all decided to go on strike. A big argument ensued, and the Tibetans started taking apart the improvised litter, since they said it was using their rope. It was looking like a big problem, as Charley Echo was fading, it was now 2pm, and darkness was not far away. I organized our remaining Sherpas to start up from BC with more oxygen, in case Charley Echo got worse, and they left along with Brent, Dave, and Andy. Meanwhile, John and the Chinese agreed to buy the rope from the Tibetans, which enabled them to keep the litter. Then, with no alternative, and no further help from the Tibetans apparently forthcoming, John, Terry, Mike, and the Chinese started carrying Papa Echo (now on O2) down the trail, just as our first four Sherpas showed up. As soon as the Tibetans saw the Sherpas, they all decided to help again (maybe they realized the Sherpas were taking their job, and that their bargaining position had just gone to zero). Anyway, it was good that the Tibetans stayed to help, because they were quite strong.
Shortly after starting down from IC, Papa Echo started lapsing into unconsciousness, despite the oxygen. It was becoming apparent to me and Dr. Lee at Base Camp, that this guy was fading fast. At this time Lee had Jake administer the first (of what would eventually be more than a half dozen) injections of dexamethasome, which seemed to help a little. By this time the motley parade consisted of Charley Echo, who could occasionally walk, as the dexamethasome kicked in, Tap, Jake, John, Terry, Mike, four Chinese, a half a dozen Tibetans, and four Sherpas. Then it started to snow.
As Papa Echo went from bad to worse, we had the rescue team turn up the oxygen from 4 to 6 and finally to 8 liters per minute. At this rate they blew through the first bottle in a couple hours. Fortunately, they had the second O2 bottle from IC, which was put on him. In the rocky and bouldery terrain below IC, the team finally decided to re-rig the litter into a pack system, to be carried by one person at a time on the narrow rocky trail. This they did, and started a succession of individual carries of Papa Echo, which would ultimately take him to Base Camp.
Andy met up with Charley Echo, as it started to get dark, administered more dexamethasome, and helped him (along with a couple of Sherpas and Chinese, supporting him under each arm, walk and stumble down the trail. Meanwhile, Papa Echo, sucking O2 at 8LPM, and getting 4mg of IM dex every hour, remained responsive only to painful stimuli. As it continued to snow and get dark, the team picked their way down past Camp 1 and finally down the steep trail to the Central Rongbuk moraine as it got pitch dark. By this time the second bottle of O2 had been all used up, and the third, carried up from BC by the Sherpas, was plugged in to his mask. Also, at this time, an additional 10mg gelcap of nifedipine was squeezed under his tongue. By moonlight, the party picked its way down the rocky trail to the jeeps, waiting at the glacial snout. From here, the patients were driven the last half mile to our Base Camp, where Lee was waiting.
In our communications tent, we had set up an infirmary. First Papa Echo was unpacked and quickly evaluated by Lee. On 8LPM his O2 saturation was 91%, but as soon as we took the mask off, it dropped to 73% in two minutes because of his severe pulmonary edema. He was still unresponsive, due to the lack of oxygen to his brain for an unknown length of time before we started O2 on him. After checking him over, and giving him yet another shot of dex, we put him in the Gamow Bag on oxygen at 4LPM (this is not a normally approved technique, but due to the severity of his problem, it was felt that it was reasonable). He remained in the bag for two hours while preparations were made for his evacuation. During this time in the bag he responded occasionally by opening his eyes to the Chinese who were yelling at him from the outside. After Papa Echo went in the Bag, Charley Echo was checked. He was doing a lot better, with 4,000 feet of descent under his belt, and a lot of meds on board.
After two hours in the Bag, Papa Echo was pulled out (still unconscious, but apparently stable and breathing), given another shot of dex, loaded in the jeep, a fourth bottle of O2 connected to his mask (his O2 sat remained at 87% on the O's), and the driver told not to stop until he got to the hospital in Shigatse. And that was the end of our epic day.
The aftermath this morning was like the morning after a big party. Tap had sprained his back carrying the litter and was suffering from sciatica. Jake had twisted his knee carrying Papa Echo on his back and was hobbling around. Brent had aggravated the cough he had brought down with him from his last time up the hill. Only JR, Dave, and Andy looked relatively unscathed.
So that is our next summit team. Tomorrow, Dave, John, and Andy head up the big hill. Everyone else gets a few days of recovery time. All we can be sure of it that our plans will probably change again.

Ares Wizard has become a very popular way to install all the best TV Addons in Kodi in just a few clicks. However, the "build server" that hosts the Kodi "builds" has been offline often for quite awhile. So this process is hit-or-miss, to warn you now. But when it hits (and when we actually do install Ares Wizard), it hits hard, son.
Ares Wizard Update #1: In the recent months, much of Ares Wizard's functionality has been un-maintained, causing a significant portion of it to not work (particularly the server that hosts the file for us to install Ares, and the build server that hosts the Kodi builds).
Install Ares Wizard VIDEO Tutorial by ClawTV
BUT, we still managed to get a great Kodi Build, Apollo, installed. We also installed Pulse (the skin didn't change to Pulse's skin, but the TV addons sure imported). So give it a shot – install Ares Wizard on Kodi and set up some great Kodi builds!

What is Ares Wizard?
Ares Wizard is a tool that configures your installation of Kodi to add the best TV addons, movie addons, program addons, skins, and general configurations to your Kodi.
How Do I Install Ares Wizard in Kodi?
The installation is very similar to installing the Config Wizard, if you've done that. If not, here are the step-by-step instructions:
How to install Ares Wizard in Kodi (Step-by-Step):
- In Kodi, go to System > File Manager.
- Go to Add Source
- Select <None> to enter the URL below
- Enter http://www.areswizard.co.uk and press OK
- Select the field to enter a name and enter a name for the new source (we kept it simple and named it "aw" for Ares Wizard).
- Hit OK to Add the source.
- Then go back to the Kodi home screen
- Go to Programs
- From the Programs menu, select Get More
- Then select the two dots ("..") to go up a level
- Then go up another level by pressing the two dots again
- You should then see "Install from Zip file". Select it.
- Then select the new source you added in the first few steps (we named it "aw").
- After you select the source, you should see the ares.x.wizard.zip file.
- Select it to install Ares Wizard.
- After you see the notification that Ares Wizard has been installed, go to the Kodi home screen again.
- Then go to Programs.
- Select the new Ares Wizard item under Programs and hit OK to launch it.
- After Ares Wizard is launched, choose "Builds" in the Ares Wizard main menu.
- Then select a build of Kodi (a pre-made configuration). Tip: We had luck with the Apollo build, but not with the other few Top 5 Kodi builds in Ares Wizard. The Apollo build took awhile to install, but was great after we installed it.
Issues BEFORE Installing Ares Wizard in Kodi
- Make sure you have the correct URL to download the Ares Wizard zip file:
Issues DURING Installing Ares Wizard in Kodi
- Be sure to let any processes complete fully to avoid errors. This is especially true when you go to install a Kodi build, because the builds usually are at least 100MB or more. So it takes awhile for Kodi's Ares Wizard to download the build and extract the files to your device. Be patient!
Issues AFTER Installing Ares Wizard for Kodi
- If a TV Addon doesn't play a stream in Ares Wizard after it's installed, there are a few things to try:
- A) Re-install the individual TV Addon manually, as the Wizard may not necessarily have the latest version of the TVAddon
- B) Reboot everything, including the media playback device, your router – everything.
- C) The stream is blocked due to geo-restrictions or other content restrictions.
- D) Your Firestick / Fire TV / other type of device is overheating. This is very very common for Firestick and other streaming TV sticks that don't have onboard cooling and a plastic-encased body.
ClawTV TV 2-Minute Wrap-Up
The Ares Wizard is an amazing system, so I give mad respect to the Ares Wizard developers. The concept works great when it's available and has huge potential.
What are you waiting for? Install Ares Wizard on your FireTV or other device and get in the game!

Infrared Tracker R/C Car is controlled by a "magic dot"
Usually when you're controlling an R/C car you have some sort of remote with a pair of joysticks or a wheel and trigger. Generally the controls are relatively self-explanatory, as you don't get much more simplistic than pressing a couple of sticks. Apparently there is an easier way, at least with the Infrared Tracker R/C Car.
This cool-looking car is controlled by a "magic dot" (their words, not mine) which comes from a handheld device. The dot can be recognized up to a full 5 feet in front of the car, which is good if you're wanting to control it from a distance. However, I don't think you could make it go very far, since the dot won't likely be visible from great distances.
The car is fairly inexpensive, retailing for $49.95. One thing is for sure, this thing will drive your cat crazy. Can you imagine your cat chasing the dot, with a car following behind?

MANILA-- As President Rodrigo Duterte pledged more equipment and support for the military in the coming years, the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) said it will continue fulfilling its mandate and will not fail the nation.
"The pronouncement by our Commander-in-Chief resonates with inspiration and gratitude from and poses a challenge to every Soldier, Airmen, Sailors, and Marines," said AFP public affairs office chief Col. Edgard Arevalo in a message to the PNA Monday.
Duterte, during Sunday's graduation ceremonies for the Philippine Military Academy's Salaknib Class of 2017, said more modern military aircraft, sea vessels, and other equipment are forthcoming in the next two to three years to better patrol the country's territory and combat security threats.
"In the next two to three years, the AFP will have flight simulators, radars, support, patrol and assault vehicles as well as new surveillance and fighter aircraft so that you can better patrol our borders and guard our seas," the Chief Executive stressed.
With this pending arrivals, Arevalo said the morale of the AFP will be further boosted.
"The delivery of new ships, aircraft, and equipment will not only boost the morale and the capability of your armed forces, it will also redound to the benefit of the Filipino people and the nation whom we sworn to protect and defend with honor, service, patriotism," he added.
"This gesture of support from the President also presents itself as a challenge to your AFP for it to measure up to the high expectations and meet steep standards of service and mission accomplishment. We will not fail our nation," Arevalo emphasized.

Education Specialist
Doane's Education Specialist program, an advanced academic degree, prepares leaders to make a difference in teaching and learning at the highest level of a school district. Completion of the Education Specialist degree (Ed.S.) leads to Nebraska administrative certification as a superintendent or to other district-level positions requiring certification beyond the principalship. Our primary focus is the superintendent role, but we also will support the development of leaders roles and positions that are part of a district's leadership team. Like each education program at Doane, we are committed to preparing educators who have a passion for education and leadership. The quality of our Ed.S. program attracts candidates from across the state and surrounding areas.
Why Choose Doane?
- In the cadre format, small groups of students move through the Ed.S. program together, providing continuity and a built-in peer network.
- The core belief of the program is that leaders need the right knowledge and skills to lead at the district level. What makes Doane's program unique is that we intentionally work to develop leadership dispositions.
- The dispositions developed in the program teach integrity, service and ethics through the focus on the values and beliefs required of a leader.
- The program creates leaders who are strategic in their decision making, collaborate with others and serve as a catalyst for continuous improvement.
How it Works
36 CREDIT HOURS: The Education Specialist Degree program includes 30 hours of in-class work with a seminar approach and at least 6 hours of internship or practicum experiences approved in advance.
COURSEWORK: The degree program is 36-hours and a three-year sequence of coursework.
TIME LIMITS: All coursework must be completed within a five-year period. (No transfer credit is allowed for the Education Specialist program.)
ELIGIBILITY: Candidates for this program need an MA/MS program in administration in an approved program that qualifies them for building-level, principal endorsement. The program must include completion of one semester of practicum OR the candidate must hold a current endorsement in building-level administration.
The candidate shows successful completion of at least 6 hours of graduate-level coursework in the past five years or documentation of the completion of the equivalent in continuing education units.
The Ed.S. program of leadership development is designed around five program outcomes:
- Strategic Leadership
- Curriculum Leadership
- Organizational Leadership
- School-Community Leadership
- Policy and Political Leadership

Parents will be only too familiar with kids' obsession with farts, bottoms and generally anything to do with poo.
We don't know what it is, but to these kids toilet humour isn't just funny, it is the foundation of all conversations for the best part of a decade.
And to be honest, if we never heard another knock-knock fart joke, it would still be too soon.
Now one boy has taken his obsession nationwide, after crashing a live weather report on Mississippi news station, WLBT.
About twenty seconds into the segment, the pint-sized studio demon enters the frame (much to the horror of meteorologist Patrick Ellis), saying: "I don't know what's going on. Are you sure? Are you crazy sure?"
The boy then decides to ramp up the cringe factor and bends over to pass wind on Ellis, adding: "There are farts and toots everywhere."
Although the child gets swiftly removed by a member of the production team, all we can say is: Ellis, we sympathise.
We really do.

Due to changing demographic patterns, organizations are facing an increase in the number of employees due for retirement and a dwindling number of younger workers available to replace them. Many companies focus on discreet "job skills" that are important for an employee "to do the job". Hiring and promotion decisions are often based upon those job skills. Even with this focus on discreet and measurable skills, some employees do poorly. What is missing? Skills can be taught, measured and improved, so aren't they enough? The fact is we all know that it takes more than just the bare essentials to make a successful employee.
There are important critical success factors that are sometimes difficult to define or measure—factors like drive, initiative, attitude, and so on. Many of these less easily defined factors are termed "competencies". And it is competencies that often have the greatest impact on an employee's success and promotability. The most successful organizations and leaders who want to raise the bar on talent tend to look beyond job skills and job description to select, develop and challenge their people. They look at competencies which are only earned through business schools. Best B-Schools give their students a greater understanding of what competencies are and how to practice identifying, selecting and using competencies. They will explore how competencies can be used to supplement or improve how they select, manage and develop themselves.

Dyslexia's roots traced to bad brain connections
THE neural basis of dyslexia may finally have been nailed. It seems that different areas of the brain's language network don't communicate properly. The discovery may lead to ways of helping people with dyslexia improve reading and writing skills.
One theory proposes that people with dyslexia have subtle hearing problems, particularly involving timing of speech, which in turn leads to the brain's neural representation of phonemes – the basic units of speech sounds – developing poorly.
The trouble with this idea, says Sophie Scott at University College London, is that people with dyslexia have no problem understanding speech.
To investigate, Scott and her colleagues scanned the brains of 23 adults with dyslexia and 22 without. In all the participants, patterns of nerve activity in the auditory cortex, which processes incoming sound, were equally reliable in their response to different speech sounds. This suggests that the brain represents sounds equally well, whether or not a person has dyslexia.
Another possibility is that other parts of the brain's language network may have trouble accessing those sound representations. To test this, the team explored connections between 13 brain regions involved in language processing. They looked at how similar activity was across these regions and the structure of the actual nerves that connect them. In people with dyslexia, both types of test revealed faulty connections, and therefore bad communication, between the brain region that contains the auditory cortex and the area involved in language processing and speech production. The poorer the connectivity between these regions, the worse participants performed on reading and other phonological tasks (Science, doi.org/qcw).
The team suggest that non-invasive brain stimulation techniques might be able to restore the faulty connections.
The study points to using brain stimulation to target faulty connections to improve reading

I found this cute container at Michael's and I purchased it without a plan. It took me some time to come up with an idea however I did finally decide to organize my sight words by levels. I created flashcards and a stick bang game for each level.
I coordinated each box with matching fruit graphics. For example, the red container has an apple, all the level one words have apples on them as well. This makes it easy for clean up when the levels get mixed together.On the stick bang game, I put color coordinated washi tape on each stick to keep the sticks organized as well.
So far the response from my students has been positive. I work with many children at lots of different levels and they love the cute graphics and the fun colors. Several of the students who have moved levels are very excited to go to the new colors.
The best part of the box is that it fits perfectly between my teaching binders and the shelf above.

How is the flash drive formatted as I'm looking for something to transfer imovies to.
Last year I made an imovie for my holiday which was about 45 mins long, and a mixture of photos and videos.I was able to drag and drop it onto a Sandisk 32gb flash drive without any problems, and can view it on my tv through the XBox.This year I have done the same thing and my movie is about 30 mins.When I try to drag and drop to the same usb stick, which has 14gb storage left on it, I get a message saying the volume is too large.I reduced the quality & also compressed through Quick Time Player to about 3gb but it still won't transfer to the stick.I am wondering if this Sandisk usb stick is formatted to better suit the Mac but does it then mean it won't work in the XBox?

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Jacob Barnwell had three hits, including a three-run home run that propelled Ohio State to a 7-4 Big Ten win over Nebraska on Saturday afternoon.
The Buckeyes led 1-0 with two on and two outs in the bottom of the fourth inning when Barnwell delivered the game's key hit, a three-run homer to left field. Ohio State (18-8, 1-1) led the rest of the way, but the Huskers (14-13, 2-3) kept the pressure on.
Nebraska, which won Friday's series opener 7-3, scored twice in the fifth when Jaxon Hallmark delivered an RBI triple and later scored on a wild pitch.
After Ohio State got a two-out RBI double from Noah McGowan to make it 5-2 in the fifth, Nebraska scored single runs in the sixth and seventh.
Scott Schrieber hit a solo home run in the sixth. It was his eighth this season and 34th of his career, tying him for ninth on NU's all-time chart.
Nebraska then missed out on a golden opportunity in the seventh. With two on and no outs, Mike Addante put down a sacrifice bunt. Ohio State third baseman Conner Pohl threw wildly to first, allowing a run to score and leaving runners at second and third with no outs.
But Ohio State reliever Griffan Smith got a comebacker and a flyout to shallow left field from the next two batters. After intentionally walking Schrieber, Jesse Wilkening grounded out to end the threat.
Ohio State tacked on insurance runs in the seventh and eighth, while NU, which was outhit 13-5, went down in order in its final two innings.
Starter Matt Waldron allowed five runs in six innings and was tagged with the loss.
The series finale will begin 11 a.m. Sunday on KNCY 1600 AM, 105.5 FM in Nebraska City.

Pets are real family members and it is devastating to lose them.
A pet sympathy card is a thoughtful way to express love and support to a grieving pet owner.
I made this card with an "Earth Angel Cat" digital stamp and a sentiment that came with the image. I purchased this image on Etsy several years ago but I can't locate the designer's name.
I colored the digital image with Copic sketch markers and added a little glitter glue to the angel wings.
I used machine stitching to attach the elements of the card to a blank kraft card. I used washi tape to attach the sentiment.
Thank you for taking a look at my card. Please share your thoughts in the Comments Section below.

The difference between Ferrous & Non-ferrous metals
We deal with all types of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. We have included some useful information here to help you to identify the common types of scrap metal.
Ferrous Metals mostly contain Iron. They have small amounts of other metals or elements added, to give the required properties. Ferrous Metals are magnetic and give little resistance to corrosion. Some examples of the ferrous metals we deal with:
- Vehicle scrap metal
- Demolition Site scrap metal
- Metal offcuts from manufacturing industries
Non-Ferrous Metals do not contain Iron, are not magnetic and are usually more resistant to corrosion than ferrous metals.
Some examples of Non-Ferrous Metals we deal with are:
- Aluminium & Aluminium Alloys
- Copper
- Brass
- Lead
- Zinc
- Stainless Steel
- Electrical Cable
