Westport girl killed in Maine crash remembered
A community is shaken today after a 12-year-old Westport girl was killed in a crash while at a summer camp in Maine.
Tess Meisel was riding in a minivan yesterday that was struck by a tractor-trailer in Farmington.
Friends say she loved horseback riding and also played in the Orchestra at Coleytown Middle School.
The YMCA says four campers and two staff members were in Maine for horseback riding camp.
Two other local campers, one from Westport and one from Wilton, were also hurt in the accident.

The Non-Elect Dead Are Only Raised for Condemnation
Resurrection is for the elect alone.
When I say that only the elect alone are raised to life, I am not denying that the non-elect are raised after the first death in order to be destroyed in the second death. Since God is holy and just, that future judgment of the non-elect is necessary and important.
But the resurrection to life is only for the elect, and that is why I Corinthians 15 pays no attention to the non-elect. "And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied." (v17-19)
Even though non-elect do not suffer until the second coming, Christ has never known them and they have no safety from His coming wrath.
Hebrews 9: 27-28, "And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him."
When a person dies, life has left the body; breath has left. Genesis 2:7 teaches us that dust plus breath from God is the "soul"–the living being. So death is the "separation" of life from a person. I have no problem with the word "separation" if you also continue to tell us what is being separated.
But the idea of separation surely does not prove the Roman Catholic dogma of a separate and immortal "soul". God alone is immortal and will give immortality to His justified elect.
If the death of death is no more death, does that mean the world keeps all the death it already has? That death has won all its victories, and that they cannot be undone, but now there will be no more deaths added to the ones that already happened? One thing I know: death is not our friend but our enemy. Resurrection is our hope.
"Poured out his soul" goes to the definition of the word "soul". The soul is the blood; the soul is that which can physically die. That is what a reading of Isaiah 53 gives unless you impose some non-biblical definition of soul onto the text.

THE EXPERIENCE- A look back… by Margo R
Lily and I have just returned from our first yoga retreat in Troncones, Mexico. It's interesting to think back on the day when Lily called me out of the blue and asked if I wanted to co-lead a retreat in this sleepy, little seaside village on the southwest coast of Mexico. From that point forward we encountered our fair share of obstacles along the way. From a change of venue to cancelled or rescheduled flights, it seemed the little annoyances would never end. After our first rooftop yoga session, I was staring out at the waves crashing on shore and felt the soft ocean breeze and I knew that it was all worth it.
We were greeted at dawn (in this case 7:00 am as the Sierra Madres block the sun from shining any earlier) by coffee service at our beachside bungalows. Sipping on coffee or tea we would make our way up to the rooftop yoga deck. In addition to two yoga sessions a day, we spent the rest of our time lounging by the pool with various forms of reading material. Many of us opted to navigate the thundering ocean, picking our way around submerged rocks, and fighting the current. The air was 85 degrees, the water 80 degrees. There isn't anything better than napping in a hammock to the sound of waves continuously crashing on shore. In fact, there was quite a swell and the surfers among us were indeed 'stoked.' Each night, we were presented with spectacular meals inspired by local ingredients and fresh seafood: red snapper, mango salsa, molé sauce . . .we truly felt pampered and well taken care of.
The part of the trip that I will remember most is the connections that were made within our small group and with the people we met along the way. Travel truly pulls you out of your habits and routines and makes you step out of any place that feels inhibited. I was amazed at the depth of conversation that I was privy to. We see each other on our mats several days a week at the studio, but there isn't always time to connect in a meaningful way. After this trip, we each hold a little piece of one another in our hearts and the memories that we share.

You are here
There were some superb team performances at Club 7s Nationals in San Francisco over the weekend, with teams like Schuylkill River, Youngbloodz, Marist and Middlesex making deeper runs than perhaps they were projected to.
Just like you saw some teams' names left out of the later cup rounds
(Chicago, SFGG and Utah), you'll see some high-profile players' names left
off the all-tournament team, because guys like Schuylkill's Greg Ambrogi
and Dan Wright and Youngbloodz's Nick Johnson had fantastic
Wright led all scorers with 39 points on five tries and seven conversions.
When Ambrogi (7 tries on the weekend) went down with an injury in the first
half of the semifinal against Utah, it was Wright who picked up his slack,
dotting down what turned out to be the game winner.
Ambrogi was probably the player of the tournament. When Schuylkill River
was put on its heels at the start of the semifinal against Utah, Ambrogi
started the comeback with consecutive tries. When Utah's star player, Maka
Unufe, threatened to pull Utah back even, Ambrogi delivered a crucial
tackle that sidelined both he and Unufe the rest of the semifinal.
The Youngbloodz were led in scoring by Garrett Bender and the Augspurger
brothers, but whenever a big defensive play or a gashing run was needed,
Nick Johnson supplied it. He scored a momentum-swinging try in the comeback
against the Denver Barbarians on day one, and he setup the try that brought
the Youngbloodz within a score late in the quarterfinal comeback against
the Exiles.
The list below isn't of the most talented players who played at Nationals, or perhaps even the best players. It's of the guys who had the best performances when it counted.
Utah's Ben Nicholls embodies just that, as he scored six tries in the
Warriors' quarterfinal and semifinal matches. It was his try under the
posts that Jason Pye failed to convert to force overtime with Schuylkill
River in the semifinals. Nicholls led all try-scorers with nine.
Starting 7
1. John Moonlight (Woodlands Exiles). Physically imposing on everyone.
2. Taylor Howden (Belmont Shore). 6 tries, some big hits and timely plays.
3. Danny Barrett (SFGG). Not as physically imposing as Moonlight, but close.
4. Shalom Suniula (Belmont Shore). Best player at the tournament, Belmont's engine.
5. JP Eloff (Chicago Lions). Better defense than you might expect, faster than you think.
6. Greg Ambrogi (Schuylkill River). Much faster than he looked, very hard worker on the field.
7. Maka Unufe (Utah Warriors). Most athletic, talented guy there. A danger every touch.
Ben Nicholls (Utah Warriors). Leading try scorer with 9.
Dan Wright (Shuylkill River). Leading scorer with 39 points.
Alex Ross (Belmont Shore). Scored 8 tries. Race with Unufe would be fun to watch.
Justin Boyd (Belmont Shore). Bigger, stronger, faster than most. Very good defense.
Nick Johnson (Youngbloodz). Nonstop motor. He impressed everyone.
Honorable Mention
Garrett Bender (Youngbloodz)
Will Knipscher (Schuylkill River)
Phil Mack (Woodlands Exiles). Scored 32 points on the weekend.
Tim Barford (Atlanta Old White). Had five tries in four games, and might've had more.
Jared Collinson (Middlesex)
Malakai Vaka (Hawaii)
Mike Palefau (Utah Warriors). Had a good tournament, but not dominant like we're used to.
Andrea Aswega (SFGG)
Rocco Mauer (Chicago Lions)
Peter Tiberio (Chicago Lions). Two meters short of Chicago forcing overtime against Belmont.
Duncan Kelm (Belmont Shore)
Riaan Hamilton (Belmont Shore)

I want them to dribble the ball carefully like a scientist handles concoctions,
or fly across the basketball court.
I say step on the court and drive to the basket,
or dribble around your opponent,
and find a rhythm to your passes.
I want them to leap up high toward the basket,
smiling at the crowd cheering for you.
But all they do is ignore the fun, adrenaline and mistreat the sport.
All they want is the gold around their necks.

Wellbutrin and Neuropathy
Feb 7, 2003
I am on Kaletra, epivir and Tenofavir. For depression I also take prozac 30mg a day and now just added wellbutrin at one (100mg) per day. This is to counter the anti-sexual side affects of Prozac. I feel strange and not sure if I am noticing something like neuropathy in my feet. Is this crazy? I have never had it before but know many friends who have. Is it possible that the Wellbutrin can cause neuropathy? If so I want to stop immediately. thanks.
Response from Dr. Horwath
Neuropathy is not a side effect reported with Wellbutrin use. This does not mean that it's impossible, but it's also possible that you may be developing neuropathy due to another cause, such as HIV. The most common HIV-associated peripheral neuropathy presents as a numbness, tingling, burning, or painful sensation on the bottom of the feet, especially when walking or weight-bearing. You may want to consult your doctor for a neurologic exam and opinion.

I left my ipod at home today so i had to make do with listening to the busy noise of the metro and the bonus chismis from people who incessantly talk on their mobile phones even if they're walking or waiting for public transport. I don't know how they do it. Talk about personal things over the phone when absolute strangers can over hear. That is why, i therefore conclude that eavesdropping is not a sin committed by the eavesdropper but it's the fault of the eavesdropee (if that's even a word. haha) you know what i mean?
And because i am figuratively alone (although technically i am) without my music, it got me to thinking (of course, what else would i be doing on my free time other than to think, over thinkers raise your hands *both hands raised*). I've been feeling crappy about wanting to do stuff and not having any of my friends people to do it with. (I don't want to go swimming alone or do videoke on my own. That's just sad, right?) And because this year is about being positive and looking at things at a different perspective, i thought to myself being alone shouldn't mean being lonely. Right?! For us to be able to have fun with anybody else we should be able to have fun with ourselves.
So, to overcome the
fear sad feeling of having to do things on my own, i have come up with a few things i could do. First on my list is to watch a movie. In the cinema. Alone. Dan-dan-dan. Hopefully, i get to do this and actually have a good time. Let's all be alone together, shall we?

Directed by Brad Peyton- and unfortunately not a Grand Theft Auto adaptation- the movie will follow Johnson's Ray, a rescue pilot, as he tries to save the lives of his ex-wife (Carla Gugino), his daughter (Alexandra Daddario), and countless civilians as California is ripped apart by an insane earthquake.
Here are the clips:
San Andreas opens on May 29.

For instance, this time around I wanted to find out how much implementing No Child Left Behind is costing New Mexico. I thought about this after reading today's Journal story with politicians hemming, hawing and hemming some more about whether to have voters approve a $380 million increase in the gross receipts tax to pay for a newfangled "funding formula". Knowing that my own school has had to start implementing a NCLB-related "intervention" strategy without receiving any additional money, staff, new rooms...nothing, I wanted to see how the "unfunded mandate" costs of NCLB compare with the $380 thrown around in this newfangled "funding formula".
And so my wondrous journey around this thing called "Google" began. It went something like this:
- I ran into a fact sheet (i.e., short recap of a really long, questionably interesting study) from the study that quite obviously got the ball rolling on the whole newfangled "funding formula" idea.
- And then there was this (also blessedly short) "final goal statement" from the study (PDF warning: It's short but in a .pdf....you have been warned!)
- Quickly followed by the study itself in all its long, time-intensive loading PDF glory
- Then I went looking at the quite useful New Mexico Legislature Bill Finder webpage, but didn't see a 2009 version of the "funding formula" legislation, at least from last year's main sponsor Rep. Mimi Stewart. Another warning: the New Mexico Legislature Bill Finder site is highly, highly addictive for the wonky among us. As White Russians are to the alcoholic, so is this website to an education wonk. Most of you already know about it, but if I can save just one wonk from a two-month legislative bender spent sloshing around this website, I will have done my job.
- And speaking of my job and sloshing, I did run across a new bill sponsored by Rep. Stewart seeking to formalize professional development standards for teachers of the "Gifted". Now somebody over the last year or so told me Rep. Stewart was, for lack of a more professionally developed word, pissed off as Hell at the Gifted Education community last year because all these Gifto advocates came down on her like a house-a-fire on the, perhaps mistaken, belief that the new "funding formula" (2008 iteration) would cripple/destroy/end Gifted Education in New Mexico. Well, speaking on behalf of all who work/participate in this strange little dressing room of the K-12 teaching gymnasium, I just want to say: Rep. Stewart, you're really cool and work real hard and we appreciate you. We're sorry if we we're a little over the top last year. We won't do it again, and we think your new bill to insure Teachers of the Gifted really know something about teaching Gifted students is really keen. And yes, I admit I'm saying that as someone who already has the 12 hours of college credit in "Gifted" and that I might be a teeny-weeny bit less happy if I didn't and your bill passed. But you're aces in our book. Aces. Now please don't call our parents or take away our cell phones. Please.
- A list of state-by-state studies done to establish District/State costs to implement NCLB. It even had New Mexico on it!
- Unfortunately, the linked story was for a 2005 study in New Mexico;
- and the link was broken;
- but it did say that NM "was going to have to spend" from $26 to $37 million per annum on NCLB behind stuff. And that was way back in 2005, when the number of schools under NCLB "restructuring" wasn't near what it is now. You got to think that number has at least doubled by now;
- but that's "thinking" instead of knowing. I went through the rest of the site involved ("Communities for Quality Education") and couldn't find anything more recent;
- a situation that remain unchanged when I went back to this other site where I found the original New Mexico study that started all this "funding formula" stuff to begin with.
So the upshot is that this damn-fool Internet didn't give me exactly what I wanted this fine Sunday morning. I would have been off riding a bicycle...far more truth and information in a 35-mile ride imho. Still, I think if we can better use this newfangled "Internet" we might find out the answers to stuff that could help us make better informed choices when it comes to public school education funding in this country. Damn fool dreamer that I am.
I think I'll start by getting ahold of this actual human being I saw mentioned on the "Communities for Quality Education" website: "For more about NCLB costs, please contact Scott Young, senior policy advisor, at firstname.lastname@example.com or 202-454-5671."
I think I'll send Mr. Young an email right now. Oh wait, Xavi Alonso just got a yellow card for Liverpool versus Everton. And I see someone has sent me an email directing me to a video where this cat is being swung around by a moving ceiling fan. Oh dear! The cat has been thrown against the wall! That is both horrific and guiltily funny. I think I will try to find similar videos on this newfangled "YouTube" website. I see "YouTube" has a search box feature as well. I'll just type in "funny cat videos".....
P.S.: By this Monday morning I finally tired of YouTube cat videos and tried the aforementioned email address for "Communities for Quality Education". Instant delivery fail notice. Hmmm...anybody got some more recent state-by-state NCLB cost data? Is there a YouTube video with cats explaining the unfunded mandate costs of NCLB while swinging from ceiling fans?

I have performed at many weddings at St Michaels Hotel in the past, but this was the First Wedding anniversary I have performed at the St Michaels, not to mention the first Diamond Wedding Anniversary. Some of the guests travelled from the other side of the world for this event. It truly was magical.
I started the evening off by performing some table magic which entertained the elderly couple who I had been informed were extremely deaf. The smiles on there faces made everyone at the wedding anniversary smile as if it were a contagious spell that spread through the room. I enjoyed performing for the guests there so much I dug deep to perform some of my parlour show as an added extra.
The Staff at The St Michaels Hotel were very accommodating and looked after me throughout the evening.

If she starts feeling nauseated (thanks to her meds) or overwhelmed we'll go back to the room for a bit. It is wonderful to see her out and about with a smile on!! While we were are dinner I turned around to look for the bathrooms and was surprised to see Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias. He told my hubby to come over for a pic, he's really nice. Wish we were able to go do more things but it's expensive!!! At leas we are going to the Secret Garden sometime today. I gambled on one machine didnt win a thing. At least I can say I gambled in Vegas lol.

Knifed in Venice review's "FAMILIAR" & Interview with
Writer/Director Richard Powell
In 2008 Richard Powell and producer Zach Green delivered their atmospheric horror Consumption which deals with the unique and difficult subject of voluntary cannibalism. Two years later they offer up the first half of the disturbed Dodd brothers (Geoffrey) played by Robert Nolan who is a gentle and quiet high school teacher with something dark and malevolent rotting inside of him. Familiar sees Geoffrey's brother John (also played by Robert Nolan) as he survives a suburban existence with wife Charlotte (Auza) and daughter Jordan (Hostick) which he has come to detest. With an increasingly forceful voice inside his head demanding he breaks free from this life he slowly comes to suspect that the voice is not his own. It's only after a series of traumatic events at home that John comes face to face with his conflict. Read full review here.
Getting Familiar - An Interview with Director Richard Powell
When it comes to the horror genre there's as many ditches as peaks on the cinematic landscape. It's the marriage of supernatural and humanistic themes that create the most iconic film offerings that stand the test of time because they've been able to tap into an instinctive, evolutionary, fear that lives within us as a species. Over the past three years Richard Powell has documented the underlying darkness that lives in the souls of man with Consumption, Worm and now Familiar and has breathed fresh life and intelligence into a genre that has become increasingly obsessed with gratuitous imagery over any actual narrative. I've been fortunate to be able to pick the brains of the man who is making all the right moves in cinema.

Ranbir Kapoor romances with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the song 'Bulleya' in "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil." (Press Trust of India)
The sizzling on-screen chemistry between Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Ranbir Kapoor in "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil" has been appreciated by fans and Abhishek Bachchan says he hasn't seen the film but is "proud" of his wife and thinks she looked "stunning" in the romantic drama. – @siliconeer #siliconeer #Bollywood #AbhishekBachchan #AishwaryaRaiBachchan #RanbirKapoor #AeDilHaiMushkil #ADHM
Since the time the trailer and songs of Karan Johar's directorial venture went on air, the chemistry between Aishwarya and Ranbir was much-talked about even as the Bachchan family maintained a stoic silence.
Last night at an event, Aishwarya's actor-husband Abhishek finally chose to talk about the 'chemistry.'
"Unfortunately, I haven't seen the film yet because I have been traveling with my football team. I will be seeing it in the coming week. I have seen the scratches of the movie and kept seeing when it was under production. I think she (Aishwarya) is looking stunning," Abhishek said.
The 40-year-old actor is happy for the entire team of the film that hit cinema houses, Oct. 28. "I am very happy for Karan Johar and the entire team. I wish them all the very best."
The movie, that was mired in a controversy over the appearance of Pakistani actor Fawad Khan, has earned Rs 84.75 crore till now at the box office across India.
Abhishek was talking on the sidelines of a fashion show by designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla where his sister Shweta Nanda was the showstopper.
The "Guru" actor along with his parents Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan were at the event to cheer Shweta.

Black & White
Finally got the manga Black&White by Taiyo Matsumoto that was made into Tekkon Kinkreet which I thought was one of the best anime's I've seen since Akira. I started reading it a bit, but decided to have a doodle of the two dudes, Black and his little brother White. Took a bit of tinkering and wasn't too happy with the background.
Still working on completing some drawings so will post more soon.

Shania Twain had all eyes on her for 'Swingin' with My Eyes Closed'
There's no question Shania Twain is back.
The Canadian singer, 51, looked stunning in a black sequin jumpsuit with a deep neckline on Wednesday's The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Twain performed her new song Swingin' with My Eyes Closed.
Fans have been waiting for 15 years to get new music from country music's best-selling female artist, and Twain did not disappoint.
Fallon also announced Wednesday that Twain will embark on a 46-date 2018 North American Now! tour to support her album of the same name, which will be released September 29. It's her first studio release since 2002's Up!
The North American tour kicks-off in Tacoma, Washington in early May, with stops in Canada, before concluding in Vegas in early August 2018.
With the release of 'Now,' country superstar Shania Twain is back. She talks about her reborn career and her exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. (June 28) AP
Late Thursday night, Twain was "super excited" to unleash the Swingin' single on the Internet.

Why do I have to apply to Counting Stars?
Counting Stars guarantees that you will be evaluated playing the position you choose. We do this by limiting the numbers of players on each team and maximizing everyone's playing time. The application process helps us make sure we have the right number of players in each grade level and position.
How much does an evaluation cost?
(1) Individual evaluations are $375
(2) Small group evaluations (less than a full team) are $250 per player
(3) One team evaluations are $200 per player
(4) Two team evaluations are $150 per player
(5) More than two team evaluations are $125 per player.
The program includes a full day of physical, technical, tactical and psychological testing. In addition, we provide you with a digital locker that contains 1) your physical test results, 2) your psych test results and, 3) an overall analysis of a) your athletic or performing arts strengths and areas where you need to improve, b) an analysis of your academic abilities and goals and c) a list of schools Counting Stars believes fit both your academic and athletic or performing arts ability and goals.
Can I cancel once I've already registered and paid?
Our evaluation process requires all paid registrees to attend, but we understand that emergencies can happen. As soon as you know you cannot attend an event, please contact us immediately so we can make alternate arrangements. Contact: email@example.com
Who are the evaluators?
In order to comply with NCAA regulations for the student-athletes, the evaluators are former college coaches, current club and high school coaches and former professional and college players.
Who will my teammates be?
Your teammates will be other high school athletes who want to play sports in college. 9th and 10th graders will play against other 9th and 10th graders; 11th and 12th graders will play against other 11th and 12th graders.
Will there be trainers?
Yes. There will be certified trainers at every field/court/pool where participants are being evaluated.
Do you accept walk-ons?
No. We work hard to ensure that every athlete who comes to Counting Stars gets the time we need to evaluate them properly, and that requires all participants to register ahead of time. So register now to reserve your spot.
When and how will I get my evaluation results?
The raw scores should be available the day after the evaluation event. The complete evaluation with the recommended colleges should be available approximately a week after the evaluation event is completed. For individual, small group or one team evaluations, the evaluation is available approximately a week after the event. Players receive an online "digital locker" that contains all this information and allows them to compare their scores from year to year.
Will my results be sent to the recommended colleges?
No. Counting Stars is an education and talent evaluation company to help players and their parents, not a recruiting company for colleges. However, the complete evaluation report and other information can be printed and sent to college coaches and/or admissions officers.
Will I receive recommendations for areas of improvement?
Yes. Not only will Counting Stars make recommendations for areas that need improvement; Counting Stars can also refer players to other organizations that can help them in those particular areas.
Does a Counting Stars evaluation improve my chances of getting a college scholarship?
Yes and no. Counting Stars helps athletes identify colleges that offer the best chance for acceptance and playing for the school team. If any of these colleges offer athletic scholarships, a Counting Stars evaluation may help a player qualify, but we do not guarantee it. Our priority is to help players find a college that meets their academic and athletic goals.
• Why are the team evaluations not available until July of 2019?
Counting Stars recognizes that clubs and high schools need to budget for any additional costs and that most clubs and high school have already set their budgets for the 2018-19 seasons. Counting Stars is giving clubs and high schools the opportunity to explore what we have to offer, so they can plan accordingly. If a club or high school is interested in an evaluation event with Counting Stars prior to July of 2019, please contact Phil Wright at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Get Your Priorities Straight
It might seem at first glance that the most expensive items in your inventory should receive the most attention. But in reality, less expensive items with higher turnover ratios have a greater effect on your business than more costly items. If you focus only on the high-dollar-value items, you run the risk of running out of the lower-priced products that contribute more to your bottom line.

Lamellar keratoplasty techniques

Lamellar keratoplasty (LK) has revolutionized corneal graft surgery in several ways. Deep anterior LK (DALK) has eliminated risk of failure due to endothelial rejection. Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) has almost eliminated induced astigmatism and the "weak" graft–host junction as seen with penetrating keratoplasty (PK) and also reduced the risk of endothelial rejection. LK provided new insights into posterior corneal anatomy that led to better understanding and performance of DALK and to the development of another EK procedure, namely pre-Descemet's EK (PDEK). Surgical procedures for LK were further refined based on the improved understanding and are able to deliver better surgical outcomes in terms of structural integrity and long-term patient satisfaction, reducing the need of further surgeries and minimizing patient discomfort. In most specialist centers, anterior lamellar techniques like DALK and EK techniques like Descemet's stripping EK (DSEK) and Descemet's membrane EK (DMEK) have replaced the full-thickness PK where possible. The introduction of microkeratome, femtosecond laser, and PDEK clamp have made LK techniques easier and more predictable and have led to the innovation of another LK procedure, namely Bowman membrane transplant (BMT). In this article, we discuss the evolution of different surgical techniques, their principles, main outcomes, and limitations. To date, experience with BMT is limited, but DALK has become the gold standard for anterior LK. The EK procedures too have undergone a rapid transition from DSEK to DMEK and PDEK emerging as a viable option. Ultrathin-DSEK may still have a role in modern EK.

Plastic Free July Day 19/
Plastic can hide in sneaky places. For example, aluminum cans are lined with plastic in order to keep the metal from reacting to the food inside.
While some manufacturers have removed BPA from their packaging, many have not. The EWG has created a database of packaged foods which contain BPA in their packaging. And even if a company doesn't use BPA, the can is still lined with plastic and may use other materials which are also problematic.
One easy way to avoid canned food is to cook your own dried beans. It's super simple, and requires virtually no hands on time.
How to cook dried beans
- Cover dried beans with water, and soak overnight. Make sure you've covered them with plenty of water, they will soak up a lot!
- Drain the beans, and put in a pot, covering them with fresh water.
- Cook in boiling water for 45 minutes to two hours, depending on the kind of bean. You should check periodically with a fork to see if they're done.
That's it! It's one of the simplest food switches you can make. You can also make them in the crockpot if that's your thing.
Most stores that carry bulk foods have at least a few varieties of dried beans. We use a lot of chickpeas, black beans and navy beans.
If you aren't familiar with Plastic Free July, take a look at this post. Basically, it's a month-long challenge to reduce the amount of disposable plastic you use. It's a great starting point if you just want to give cutting out disposable plastic a try.
My first Plastic Free July was in 2013(!), and this month I'd like to highlight some of the things I do to reduce my plastic use, and some struggles. Many things are part of my routine at this point (buying in bulk, refusing plastic silverware, etc.), but I am not perfect, and I always find this challenge to be a good time to refocus and look at what trash I am actually producing.

Feeling As Cheeky and as Caring as a Pregnant Feminazi
Feeling Cheeky And As Fuzzy and Caring As a Pregnant Feminazi So a seventy something lady in Toronto gets her nose cut off over the wknd in a parking garage loaded with public cameras and yet the press give no suspect description beyond scantily clad political correctness. Maybe it was the ghost of 'Sammy' ( thought- to- be) put down two fisted knife and schlong wielding Syrian- born staple homeland of Muslim mental sanity. Or, nine bullets with a Taser topper turned out to actually not put down this one- off Friday night, streetcar stalker and his offspring, a level visual challenge, like a midget…Toronto deserving, 'Son of Sammy'. There is a silver lining to the lady's misfortunate, however, that could only happen in Canada, in that short of a state (it's all a boot the kids) school teacher. Grandma is one of the few Ontarian citizens who can have OHIP pull back the curtain of the rich and famous government tier and golden world of highly paid medical workers, and allow for long but by no means last… delisted 'free' service of a nose job on the liberal Ponzi house of cards. Or in her case benefitting socialism at its Marxist bumble beginnings and on the way out, (the public health scheme.. not her) Item 2 Annette Funicello (and Walt) mercifully checked out before the teen boy rise of X (XX) Disney child star, bow legged Miley used Cyphilis who can now boast that the mere invocation of her name would land a sex harassment in any kindergarten like monitored work- place in liberal skitzo- established Ontario whose only Value, purchased on clearance at a village Value Mart is that 'no' values are to be publicly defended…. that'valueless' parades are to be paid for, and to be celebrated by all taxpayers.. are always welcome. For those talk show call in parents who claim their kids didn't watch the latest pop idol slut masturbate on stage with a giant foam finger. .. just hold that thought until the next free 'socialization' moment at school, on the team or on face book and twitter. Is there any place an army of lawyers could get any richer, than a liberal three generation narcissist valueless nation? Ecstasy raved out and loaded male producers and shareholders of MTV use Smiley like a used condom as much as any feminist should be free to do. .. as whatever abuse or self abuse fancy's them for the moment.. up to and including hooking up with Islamist boy friends. Boy.. they're sure showing us how growed up they are. Item 3 Obama and his Democrat buds who criticized an, at least.. well meaning, George W for sending a slow aircraft carrier of bottled water to Katrina (God and Democrat -made victims) are okay if it is alleged saran gassed, dead kids (and only in an Islamic nation could 'alleged' use of sarin gas be staged or cause du tribe, self- inflicted). I mean isn't less than a week to dissipate gas or bury the dead or bring in the Islamic 'men in white' with the memory blocker incentives. Item 4 I 've come to the conclusion that the best approach to take to Islamic nations is the applied WW II Japanese philosophy that more dead now saves more dead later. Only no one has to drop at atomic bomb on an Islamic nation…yet. Just don't help the blood thirsty bastards in whatever size and form they take. It's not like these Arab Christian killing tribal nomadic gypsies appreciate Western aid…even when they demand it. Or that American liberals would demand or gain cheaper oil in exchange for being Mo- to family black sheep despots and desert raised royalty hit men Item 5 Ever the clever complicated Quebec fresh French.. they are now using the 'Christian heritage factor' to back their equally contorted racist natural inclinations of protecting old Quebec 'values' and snow creature as only politicians, university profs, and collaborators could spin. Only problem is that the current Quebec government is in competition to be the most narcissistic faggot loving 'secular' free loading society in the world, and no chip off the (just now promising) French homeland 'getting it' in terms of decades wasted on liberal social experimentation Paul Gordon

- GE Healthcare's customers expressed the need for a web-based, enterprise-wide, multi-modality imaging protocol management solution that would help them to ensure consistency of imaging protocols, decrease the risks to patients, and comply with industry accreditation requirements. In tandem with GE product leaders from MR, CT and X-Ray, I led a series of customer research and design sprints to explore concepts for an imaging protocol management solution. The product ideas were continually refined with input from GE's customers and engineering teams and resulted in a high-fidelity prototype that GE could validate with its customers and internal teams for future development.
- The Editorial Review Board of Diatoms of the United States – part of the Institute for Arctic and Alpine Research at the University of Colorado Boulder – needed help in exploring opportunities for future enhancement of its ever-evolving reference of freshwater diatoms. I conducted interviews to clarify the needs and pain points of users, concepted several ideas for new product features, and developed a roadmap for design and development based on the organization's goals and user needs.
- Along with my friends at Big Bang, I helped OPTI Medical Systems to radically re-envision the user experience of its flagship blood gas analyzer incorporating customer input. The product features a brand new industrial design and embedded touchscreen software.
- I guided Abbott Diabetes Care in designing its FreeStyle Auto-Assist software that downloads and analyzes data from its blood glucose meters to help providers improve quality of care. And since Abbott valued my work so much (and patented it), we continued our relationship to explore, concept, and rapidly prototype the user experience for a comprehensive diabetes disease management system.

January 2018
In a previous article, we looked at the first generation
of Panzerjagers. These vehicles greatly aided the Germans
during the early part of the war, giving them something with
which to counter the growing number of T-34 and KV-1 tanks.
Yet by early 1943, it was clear to the Germans that the previous
generation of Panzerjagers had many flaws. Among those flaws
was a limited traverse main gun and thin armor that only covered
the front and sides of the vehicle. At the same time, the
Germans had noticed the success of the up-gunned Sturmgeschütz
III assault guns when used against tanks. So the Germans decided
to design a new set of conversions to be built along the same
lines as the Sturmgeschütz assault guns. These new vehicles
would be known as Jagdpanzers or hunting tanks.
Germany's small but lethal Hetzer hunting tank.
The Hetzer mounted an L/48 75mm gun in a limited traverse
"Saukopf" pig's head mantlet. Unlike most other
German guns, the 75mm gun on the Hetzer did not have a muzzle
brake. The Panzerjager troops liked the Hetzer as it was a
small target, not much taller than a standing man. In addition
to the low silhouette, it was also highly mobile; those two
factors made it a very difficult target for its opponents
to kill. The main problem with the Hetzer was that it was
very cramped, being only 7 feet high and having a gun the
needed to be loaded from the right, mounted on the right side.
The Hetzer was such a good design that it remained in production
after the war ended and equipped several post-war European
armies. Among them was the Swiss army who continued using
them until the 1970s when they were finally taken out of service
and sold to collectors. A total of 2500 were produced during
the war and were issued to the Panzerjager battalions of infantry
divisions. You can find the Hetzer in Elsenborn Ridge.
Jagdpanzer IV
The powerful Jagdpanzer IV.
The first models mounted the L/48 75mm gun, the same gun
that armed the Panzer IV on which the conversion was based.
This defeated the entire purpose of the conversion, as the
goal was to mount the larger and more powerful L/70 gun. The
reason for this was that the L/70 gun was needed to arm the
higher-priority Panther tanks, so the first models had to
be content with the shorter guns. Despite the failure to mount
the longer gun, the Jagdpanzer IV was still very effective
with its low silhouette and thick, well-sloped armor.
Many in the Panzerjager force felt that the Jagdpanzer IV
was good enough in its current form, but Hitler felt otherwise
and ordered that a new model with the L/70 gun be produced
immediately. So a new model appeared in mid-1944, not many
of this model were produced as the change over was taking
a long time; too long for Hitler. In late 1944, Hitler again
ordered that the changeover to the L/70 model be made at all
costs, so a new model came out with a crude superstructure
mounting an L/70 gun. Few of this crude model were built because
German industry was in smoking ruins at the hands of the Allied
air forces by this point. While the new L/70 models had a
better gun, they had reduced mobility as the longer gun overloaded
the front of the vehicles. This forced the designers to the
rim the front road wheels with steel instead of rubber, thus
reducing off-road mobility.
A total of 1,700 Jagdpanzer IVs were produced between January
1944 and March 1945 with the first vehicles being sent to
the 12th SS "Hitler Jugend" and Hermann Goering
divisions. The Jagdpanzer IV appears in Elsenborn Ridge mounting the L/70
The widely feared Hunting Panther.
Like all other Jagdpanzers, the conversion involved removing
the turret and upper hull and replacing them with a thick
well-sloped armored superstructure. In this superstructure
was mounted a massive L/71 88mm gun. This was an extremely
powerful weapon capable of killing most Allied tanks at ranges
of over 2000m. The Jagdpanther was a weapon feared by Allied
tank commanders, especially in Normandy, where many times
a single Jagdpanther could hold up entire Allied armored advances
for hours until they could be found and then destroyed by
air support.
It was also feared by Russian tankers on the Eastern Front,
where its long-range gun proved very effective. The only problem
was that there just were not enough Jagdpanthers. Plans called
for production of some 300 Jagdpanthers a month, but because
of Allied bombing raids, German industry only produced some
350 during the entire war. What Jagdpanthers were produced
were sent to independent heavy tank destroyer battalions,
not to individual Panzer divisions like most other Jagdpanzers.
These battalions would be attached to units in key sectors
of the line in a similar manner as the Tiger and King Tiger
heavy tank battalions. So far the Jagdpanther appears in Road
to Berlin and Elsenborn Ridge.
It's not usually safe to taunt a Hunting Tiger.
Despite sporting the most powerful tank gun of World War
II, it had a huge number of flaws. First of all, the suspension
on the very first models could not take the nearly 80-ton
weight of the huge tank. This problem was later fixed by an
improved suspension, but even then it only had a maximum cross-country
speed of 9 miles per hour. It was also very unreliable due
to the massive weight and broke down often. Because of its
slow speed and unreliability it was often reduced to a mobile
strong point.
Production of the Jagdtiger began early in the summer of
1944 and around 70 were produced up to the end of the war.
Only a few saw combat as many of those produced did not even
reach front-line units. At one point, 88mm guns were used
instead of the 128mm gun due to shortages of the new gun.
Like the other heavy Panzerjagers and Jagdpanzers, Jagdtigers
were sent to heavy tank destroyer battalions. The Jagdtiger
can be seen in Spearhead Division..

Cinnamon is common and very appreciated spice, that is so good for our bodies and that has many benefits; I will quickly list some of them.
- it has positive effects on blood sugar level, keeping it stable and avoiding the peaks;
- it helps digestion and stomach problems;
- it is antibacterial, anti fungal, antiviral;
- it is amazing for the immune system, hence as soon as you have a cold just put one teaspoon cinnamon in a cup, add a little pinch of ginger and add boiling water. It helps more than excepted;
- it boosts your energy level. For those who suffer of low body temperature – that cause tiredness and fatigue – cinnamon is helpful to immediately feel better.
This are just few of the benefits that cinnamon provides, but it is important to see the difference between the main types of cinnamon that are present on the market. 4 are the varieties used for commercial purposes, decided on their provenience. Three of them are classified as the Cassia and only one is the true cinnamon, the Ceylon.
For what do they differ?
First thing first: both are available on market, however, Cassia is the one you find easily and more often, so please make an effort and find some spice shops and pay attention to the label.
Cassia comes mainly from Southern China, plus Eastern and Southern Asia. It has a dark brown-red colour, the sticks are a thicker and it has a rougher texture than the Ceylon. Cassia is lower quality, cheaper and has a stronger flavour.
Ceylon comes from Sri Lanka and Southern parts of India. It is less red, more gold-brownish. The flavour is less spicy, more delicate.
Why Ceylon is better than Cassia?
Because Cassia contains coumarin, which is a compound that taken in large doses can be harmful for liver and kidney. The amount of coumarin is Cassia cinnamon is approximately 1%, whereas in Ceylon 0.004%. This won't be a problem if you just use a little bit of this spice not regularly, but if you use it on a daily basis and in great quantity, it is worth to look for the best quality products, that do not affect in a bad way you health and body.
Go cinnamon shopping!

Years Active: 2009-2014
This project analysed the use of oil, gas and coal in the UK from 2020 through to 2050 under different global contexts, in terms of energy security, and how this might be affected by varying degrees of decarbonisation of the UK energy system; investigation of the greater use of biomass fuels for heating and transport.
Further Information
Research focussed on available volumes of unconventional resources and the production costs of both the conventional and unconventional oil and gas resources. Supply cost curves were developed to demonstrate the inherent uncertainties in the resource estimates.
The new data has been input to TIAM-UCL, together with modifications to refining and other upstream processes. The model is now ready to begin giving insights into future hydrocarbon availability and the interactions with other sectors of the global energy system under a variety of demand and carbon constrained scenarios.

Special guest expert and Creativity Instigator, Melissa Dinwiddie, is absolutely one of the most creative, multi-passionate people I know. She's a visual artist, jazz singer, musician, former ballerina… I could go on!
But believe it or not, she calls herself a former "non-creative person"! Melissa's on a mission to change the conversation on creative expression and play, and she teaches people just like you and me to "turn the creative taps to 'on'," so you can live what she calls a "full color life".
Melissa's creative sandbox community and programs, empower people to reclaim their innate entitlement to creative play. Whatever their creative outlet may be painting drawing making music, garden explore in the kitchen.
Very creative at a young age, then by high school stopped seeing herself as an artist because she wasn't great at drawing, then the same thing happened to her with music and then dance.
Melissa chronicles quite a creative journey:
Got into Juilliard, but couldn't dance due to tendonitis, and eating disorder cropped up.
Let Juilliard and went to UC Berkeley, but lost her way with dance and the arts, and went into academia instead.
Creativity started to come up during her wedding plans and eventually found her love for doing arts and crafts, and she started making a little money with her art through client work doing Ketubah art for Jewish weddings.
The Ketubah art wasn't what she loved to do, but she could make money at it, but then that fell apart which led to hitting rock bottom.
Whether or not you consider yourself creative, every person needs "that thing" that fulfills them.
How following passions, relationships — whatever it is, there need not be just one and sometimes it takes some time, it's not always "love at first sight".
For people wondering how to find their passion, it's important to know that for most of us it's not a Eureka moment.
We talk about my own story with graphic design and rediscovering a love for it now, as a small part of my life using tools like Canva, creating graphics for the podcast.
Melissa's serious, but "lighter weight relationship" with her jazz singing — is a way for other people to think about things they love doing, but don't necessarily want to commit their life to.
How she continues to work to let go of perfectionism, and play with her creative interests and have fun with them and not needing to be "the best" at them. All of her life is better for allowing this imperfection and playfulness in her life.
How things that feel easy and fun just might be the things you should most pay attention to — a quote she heard "the things that come easiest to you and are most natural are your highest value offering" and these are things that really feed you. On the flip side is the erroneous belief that things "should" come easier to you — but many of these things are skills requiring time and practice. And just because they're hard, doesn't mean they should be a "stop sign".
Gregg Lavoy's book Callings says that "blocks are not blocks to creativity, they ARE creativity"... the blocks are actually gifts to get you to you push through the amazing feeling on the other side.
When you're a beginner, it's totally normal not to be awesome at it immediately.
Feeling resistant to something that is calling to you is a classic hallmark of something to in fact pay attention to you.
Ira Glass Taste Gap video.
Something to be aware of is that as you're learning your ability to see what is possible grows faster than your ability.
Melissa's "Golden Formula" for finding what you're interested in is a combination of self awareness + self compassion, which she believes leads to everything good.
Self awareness: Noticing everything around you that works for you, that's good, that you are interested in.
- Self compassion: Being able to be kind with yourself when you notice these the things that call to you, or that you might need to let go of.

How would your communications goals and habits change if your CEO managed you with electrical shocks? What if a device managed you with shocks, invited your friends to do so, and had access to your bank accounts? While the first scenario might be far off, the second is already here: Pavlok.
Pavlok is the latest in technology wrist bands and it doesn't just track your activity, it shocks you into complying with goals you set. Let's say you want to want to stop hitting the snooze button when you wake up – if you set that as your goal, Pavlok will shock you until you get up.
Ostensibly, Pavlok is about helping you achieve your goals and create positive habits. According to its site, "Pavlok will push you to stay on track and form [a] lasting habit" with negative feedback: shocks, monetary penalties, lost access to your phone, all "at the hands of your friends."
We all know that habits can be tough to break, but is the equivalent to a shock collar taking wearable technology a bit too far? Experiments that use shocks on animals and humans to control behavior are already considered unethical, so putting a shock bracelet on the market seems like a bit of a gray area.
There's also the issue of voltage; Pavlok shocks are up to 340 volts, and even less can be a deadly shock with direct contact to wires. While Pavlok presumably does not put the wearer in contact with wires, what happens if your wrist gets wet (making your skin a far more effective conductor) and you get shocked? What if there's a malfunction?
Electrical concerns aside, creating new habits and achieving goals is not easy, but there are ways to do so without shocking yourself. For example, setting SMART goals makes it easier to track your progress and success. Developing new, positive habits also isn't easy, and it certainly requires time, patience, and willpower; while it may seem like a wrist band might be able to crack the code on habits, the problem with positive or negative reinforcement is that it's easy to become complacent. Sure, you might figure out how to not get shocked by Pavlok, but when the novelty wears off and you start leaving it at home, those new "habits" stand a good chance of not sticking.
That's why sticking to proven habit-forming techniques like micro quotas and macro goals is probably a better tactic than pinning your hopes to wearable tech. Pavlok might believe that willpower isn't enough, but research shows that motivation helps beget discipline.
While you probably wouldn't want your CEO to put a Pavlok on you, comfort yourself by imagining what would happen if you put one on your CEO while they were being interviewed so you could shock them if they strayed from what you'd practiced. How would both of you fare?

|setting up a cluster
|Wed, 21 Jul 2010 20:34:34 GMT
Is this the only documentation on startup up a cluster? http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted <http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted>I got a single node up, pretty straight forward. But have no idea how to setup a cluster. 1. Once I start a 2nd node, how do I tell it about the other nodes in the network? 2. Do I inform all other nodes via the nodetool or is there a config file? 3. when you have nodes in other ec2 zones, how do you setup security? can you setup firewall rules when nodes are in different zones? thanks allot!

Scott Print upgrades with Screen CtP
WA printer Scott Print has revamped its prepress department with a new Screen PlateRite CtP device from Fujifilm that replaces two older machines and provides a boost in production.
The Screen PlateRite HD PT-R8900N-S CtP model chosen by Scott Print is the middle of the PT-R8900N range, delivering up to 48 B1 size plates per hour at 2400dpi. It is capable of 4,000dpi with a high-resolution option. Scott Print has been running Fujifilm Superia LH-PJE plates for some time to feed its two Komori UV presses, an eight-colour B1 Komori G840P featuring H-UV ink curing and a six-colour B2 Komori S629, also with H-UV.
The new Screen device replaces two older Creo platesetters and features an MA-L8900 autoloader, which enables three cassettes of up to 100 plates to be loaded automatically for a total of 300 plates, or 500 with the addition of two extra cassettes.
"We have been very happy with the performance of the Superia plates, particularly with our UV inks, and now with the upgrade to the Screen platesetter from Fujifilm, we have greater productivity, increased uptime and higher overall consistency," says John Scott, joint general manager with his cousin Tim. "The support has been outstanding and with the lo-chem Superia ZAC processing system, our chemical and water use is minimal."
Screen's CtP technology advances have focused on reducing energy use. Today's 8-page PlateRite devices consume about one-quarter of the energy of a ten-year old machine – thanks to the adoption of 512-channel Grating Light Valves – and an 80% reduction in power use when in standby mode.
Scott Print has constructed a new plate room as part of a refurbishment of its iconic Aberdeen Street, Perth premises, bringing printing to full view at the front of the premises. With wide glass expanses, Scott has created a more customer-friendly experience, moving away from the 'dark arts' image of the past.
"With the introduction of our new platesetter, what we've noticed most is the speed it can output plates – this has dramatically improved on our press downtime," says Scott's prepress manager, Dean Metcalfe, who will be the main user of the new CtP. "The autoloader also allows us to continue making plates even when the machine is in operation, something we could not do in the past. Going from two machines down to one – we now have only one plate processor – this has cut our already-low chemical use almost in half, which further improves on our environmental footprint. Overall, we are extremely happy with our new platesetter – there is no looking back now."
Scott Print, a much-awarded printer at both PICAs and National Print Awards, was established in 1978 by Michael and Dudley Scott, who handed the reins over to John and Tim Scott in the early 2000s.
