A couple of weeks ago I promised that we had two big announcements coming, both related to Amelia Earhart.
Well, here's the first one: EVE is sponsoring a giant helium balloon of Amelia Earhart to appear in parades all over the country! Actually the balloon will be a replica of her famous red Lockheed Vega, with an oversized Amelia in the cockpit.
The Amelia Earhart balloon is going to be the first in a series of parade balloons featuring American heroines, which we're developing with StarBound Entertainment, one of the top balloon suppliers for parades all over the country. Here at EVE we've talked about the way character balloons are overwhelmingly male; the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, for example, has only had 10 female balloons in its entire 85-year history. Our "great American women" series will bring heroines to parades all over the country. Can you imagine how cool that will be for families and kids? Can you imagine how inspired little girls will be?
"Mom, who's that?"
"Amelia Earhart! She was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic! She was the first person ever to fly solo over the Pacific!"
Read more about it here, watch the slideshow, and check out the press release we issued this week.
We need to raise the money to finance the balloon, so we're asking people to chip in $99 — that's in honor of Amelia Earhart's Ninety-Nines, the organization she founded in 1929 for women pilots. Our goal is to raise $9,801 (that's 99 people x $99 each). Donors will be inducted into EVE's 99 Club and have their names listed on the Wall of Fame (unless they want to be Howard Hughes or something, in which case we promise not to tell).
If you have a blog or a website of your own, you can help by posting the widget in your sidebar; just click the "Get Widget" tab on the bottom. The progress meter will update automatically as our total goes up. (Send us an email at email@example.com if you need help.)

We can change the world, but it takes time, effort, and MONEY. This balloon will be the first of a series of balloons honoring the contributions of American women. As my grandmother used to say, "It's time to put your money where your mouth is!" I've contributed, won't you?
Coming soon to a parade near you: Amelia Earhart | Reclusive Leftist says:
[...] balloons featuring "great American women," with Amelia Earhart as the first entry. From the blog post: A couple of weeks ago I promised that we had two big announcements coming, both related to Amelia [...]
KT2001 says:
I am so excited about this. I will travel to the first parade with my daughter to show her this balloon. Every girl needs to see it!

Dental Negligence
Like any other medical expert, NHS and private dentists owe a duty of care to all of their patients. Unfortunately, sometimes dentists make mistakes which can lead to prolonged pain and discomfort. As a result of negligent treatment, further dental procedures may be required which can be both painful and costly.
A claim for dental negligence can be made for any mistakes or accidents by the dental professional that cause you to suffer physical injury. Common examples of dental negligence include:
- Nerve injury
- Cosmetic dentistry problems
- Restorative dentistry errors
- Dental procedures not performed properly
- Mistakes in treatment leading to the loss or damage of teeth
- Delay or incorrect diagnosis of oral conditions
If you have received substandard dental care, you may be entitled to claim for the pain and suffering you have endured, as well as any other losses that you have incurred as a result of your injuries. This can include loss of income, cost of remedial treatment and other medical fees.
Our clinical negligence team has experience in dealing with dental claims and is committed to achieving justice for each and every client. Contact our team for expert legal advice and what we can to do help. Call us today to chat through any concerns you have on 0121 355 0011.

Reflective Letters Essay
Looking up at the sharp laughter of the gull, I caught the sea breeze on my face and smelled the tangy salt spray from the Pacific ocean. Suddenly, I felt like I was home. I took off my flip flops and stepped down into the familiar warm, smooth, white sand. Skirting the volleyball players near Lifeguard Station 37 at the beach in Carlsbad, California, I made my way down to the firmer sand near the shore.
I was just there for an hour for a walk along the beach. Most of the people I passed were spending the day. I could see the striped and flowered towels strewn across the sand and covered with water bottles, coolers, and sand toys. Walking along the shore, I watched the small kids making sand castles while their parents snapped pictures. One group of teenagers gauged the waves for boogie boarding; another group flipped a Frisbee back and forth while splashing around near the shoreline.
The waves bathed my ankles as I walked along just at the edge of the water. Past the lifeguard stand, a trio of surfers put on a good show and I felt my heart jump as one board flew up in the air and down upon one of them. Unconcerned, he popped up and grabbed the board and headed out again.
While I love watching surfers, I've never had the urge to try it myself, but as I turned to head back, I saw something I would love to try. It looked like a parachute which was blowing down the beach. As it got nearer, I heard a motor and realized it had something that propelled it ahead. Slowly, it headed past me and I just got a chance to take a picture as it went by. Then I turned with my back against the waves to take a "selfie" of just me at the beach.
Looking at the sky, I realized it was time to head back. A family I had smiled at asked if I would take a picture, "Of all four of us" the mother explained. The picture was taken, I waved a farewell and headed back, picking up a shell along the way. Just before heading back up to my car, I had an idea. Right where the sand is wet and smooth, I bent down and wrote, "For Rhonda." Taking out my phone, I snapped a picture and sent it to my friend.

My girls are now with there dad safely in Indiana. They had such a great time with their grandparents. My mom called me last night and told me that they had made the switch and they spent sometime talking. They spent about 13 days with them and she is missing them already. It's been about a week now without them. It's been quite and well, boring actually. But I'm making the best of it and I plan on going to Myrtle Beach next week for the day. Walk around and do some shooting than hit one of the clubs or even the Hard Rock for some good food and a nice cold beer. It's nice to be able to come and go whenever you want to and not have to worry about anything.
Fourth of July is this weekend and once again I am without the girls. Again, it's OK because I have plans and I'm going to have a great time.Swansboro always has a great display and lots of food, fun, and of course beer. (Church Street Pub is Calling Me) 🙂
This is the best place I think for a little town like this. You have complete strangers coming in and than you have your locals (me) who walk in and you automatically have your beer waiting for you. It is really nice. I hope everyone has a great 4th, be safe, have fun, and enjoy the weekend.

Thoraya Ahmed Obaid is a former Under Secretary-General of the UN and Executive Director of the UN Population Fund. She spoke clearly and articulated several issues of importance to UN Women.
- Create a UN with a focus on we the people, not the systems the UN has set up to work for states.
- Wwomen can bring about the dialogue between the UN and the state. The UN can be a safe space for different points of view. UN Women can be that safe space.
- A variety of opions. We need to democratize our insititutions. The recent uprising, gives us a sense of young people wanting to be part of it, must listen to them. Sun is rising thru the young pople, have to give them leadership positions. Women from all creeds were part of it, some with scarves, some without, all united, democaracy , equality, and human rights, Don't judge pople by what they wer on their heads, but what they have in their heads. VAW can be eliminated if we have right context. Christians, and Moslems working together. Dialogue across religions important.
- Final lesson young people cleaned up afern themselves. Means UN Women must ensure inclusive, and bringing conflicting points of view together. Not only about women but men and women, conscious of the UN, and rights of women. And gender relations. Influence institutions and understand cultural context. Becoming reference point inside and outside UN. Voice of General Assembly, that all programs engendered. We all know what needs to be done, know answers, but listen to people. Hopeful UN Women when time for real transformation in the world. Movement of change.

Hormel Natural Choice Snacks 35¢ Each at Target
If you haven't done so yet, that nice high-value printable coupon to save $1.00 on the purchase of any one (1) HORMEL NATURAL CHOICE Snack is still available. We have a new sale this week thru 6/24 to make for a very nice price…
Hormel Natural Choice Snacks $1.35 (Sale thru 6/24)
–$1.00 on the purchase of any one (1) HORMEL NATURAL CHOICE Snack
= .35 after coupon & sale, reg. $1.59
3 Responses to "Hormel Natural Choice Snacks 35¢ Each at Target"
Honestly, .35 is about all they're worth. I got two the other day (they ended up costing me .59). I can't say I'd buy them again. They were ok, but not much there.
If the coupon says "Limit one coupon per purchase of specified product," does that mean I can only use one coupon no matter how many I buy, or that I can use one coupon for each item?
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Taxpayers will cough up more than $16 million for the federal government's bungling of the rollout of a new test said to reduce the incidence of cervical cancer by 30 per cent.
Federal health department boss Martin Bowles has revealed officials have known since before Christmas there was a risk the May 1 deadline for the rollout of the new test would not be met.
But the delay was only revealed last week by a leaked department communique with the new test now set to be available from December 1.
From May 1, the two-yearly pap test was supposed to be replaced by an improved five-yearly cervical screening test administered by one national register, along with the bowel cancer screening program.
Australia's chief medical officer Brendan Murphy has told a parliamentary committee taxpayers will spend more than $16.5 million on emergency measures put in place to ensure women can still be tested until December.
That includes a $3 million compensation to pathologists to retain staff who would have been redeployed or let go from May 1.
In an embarrassing backdown, Mr Bowles was forced to admit attempts to blame the delay on Labor were untrue, given the legislation was passed two weeks before the October 30 deadline.
He said combining state and territory registers into one had proved more complex than initially thought.
"Hindsight is a wonderful thing," he told the hearing.
He defended the decision to give the $220 million contract for the register to Telstra Health, accepting the department was partly to blame for the delay.
Opposition health spokeswoman Catherine King says it's appalling the government didn't tell women about the delay back in December.
"After paying $220 million to Telstra, the delay is now going to cost taxpayers around $20 million more - imagine what that money could do for something like gynaecological research," she told AAP.

Timo goes to great lengths to win Sophie back. It does not really help that he shares a flat with three roommates who behave far from grownup, but when one of them comes home with 40 pounds of coke to boot that he must sell within a week, it seems Timo can forget about his plan to reconquer Sophie's heart. Smooth comedy full of defiant jokes.

Judge Nap: 'Obama Could Decimate ISIS Tomorrow,' But Does He Have the Will?
As the White House tries to form a strategy to fight ISIS, including possible airstrikes on the terror group's power base in Syria, analysts say President Obama could face potential legal issues if he goes ahead with those airstrikes, especially if he proceeds without Congress' approval.
'Cut the Head of the Snake': Dem Senator Urges Obama to Hit ISIS in Syria
Counterterrorism Chief: ISIS Is 'Multifaceted' Threat, Not Currently a Danger to U.S. Homeland
Fox News senior judicial analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano appeared on Shepard Smith Reporting today and explained that under the War Powers Resolution of 1973, the president can dispatch American troops anywhere in the world for military hostilities for 90 days.
According to that resolution, the president must only give Congress notice, and, with a few additional requirements, the president can add another 90 days, giving him a total 180 days he can pursue U.S. military action on his own, without the consent of Congress.
"But then, if something goes wrong, the president takes the heat, which is why a lot of presidents since this law came into effect have preferred Congress authorize the military hostilities," Napolitano explained. "So, if something goes wrong, the heat is on them."
"The question, then, is not a legal one. The president could decimate ISIS tomorrow. Military personnel have stated it could be done in 90 days, and certainly in 180 days."
Napolitano said the questions are: Does Obama have the political will to take military action? Or, does he prefer Congress takes the political heat? And can it be done in an election year?
Napolitano concluded, "Bottom line: This is up to the personal will and courage of the most unmilitary-like president of the modern era."

Hazardous waste disposal is not always pleasant to think about, but doing it correctly is vital for any business that deals with medical waste. You could be working at a hospital, or a dentist, or even a small clinic, and you have to make sure that your waste is disposed of securely and safely. Unfortunately for you, biohazard disposal is not as simple as tossing everything in the trash and calling it a day. Because there are so many aspects to disposing of medical waste, you may want to consider hiring a medical waste company. They can help make sure that your facility follows all of the applicable requirements and laws for your industry. They can make sure that your clients, and your facility's reputation remain safe. Here are some tips for hiring the right medical waste disposal company.
Word of mouth has been the best form of advertising for ages, and even now in the digital age that remains true. An internet search can often tell you all you need to know about the reputation a medical waste company might have with current and former clients. Do not go by testimonials on a company's website, since they may be made up. Always go by third party directories that can verify users. You can also talk to colleagues and friends in the industry to see who they use for their biohazard disposal.
Now, a high rating is great, and it should be a good guide for you, but you do not have to select the first high-ranking company you see. It is always a good idea to continue your research to include the prices that companies charge for their services, and what is included in those prices. Do not be afraid to contact several of them directly for that information. You may even get some free quotes, and you can use those quotes to help guide your decision.
Licenses and Certifications
You should never work with a medical waste company that is not completely OSHA compliant. You can check their OSHA rating, and it should be perfect or very close to it. Medical waste that is not handled properly can be dangerous for your clients, your staff, the public, and the environment, so you should not accept anything less than the highest levels of compliance.
To be the part, they have to look the part. Choose a company that values professionalism and takes pride in their demeanour, appearance, and service. The drivers who pick up the waste should be in a clean and neatly presented uniform. They should also be respectful of patients and staff, and be able to answer questions courteously and informatively at all times. If you have to contact the office with a question or concern, the people at the other end of the phone should treat you with respect and respond to your inquiries respectfully and promptly.
Every health clinic and facility has different needs. Medical waste disposal companies should never be rigid in what type of services they provide, and the timing in which they provide it. Find a firm that will meet your specific needs so that your biohazard disposal program is the best it could possibly be.
Do not cut corners when deciding between medical waste companies. Take the time to do your research so that you can find the one that works best for your facility.

I've got a fun new twist to gift giving. Have you ever thought about using digital stamps to make them?
I gave this a try using the "Gosh" digital set from Kellie Stamps. I used the birthday cake image and "happy birthday" sentiment to make a gift tag.
Here's what I did:
1. Open your desired digital stamps in word.
2. Place the cake image first then the sentiment underneath.
3. Change the size and color of your image if desired.
4. Print on cardstock.
5. Use a die to cut out your printed image and wording!
The adorable glassine bags and doily are from SRM Stickers. I also added bits of patterned paper, twine, embellishments and a mini clothespin too!
These are so perfect for gift giving! Be sure to visit Kellie's online store for more digital stamp options. They can be used in a variety of fun ways.

When I first thought about attending the commencement ceremony, my instinct was: "Why the fuck would I do that?" When I asked my friends, the general consensus was: "I mean, it's not like it's Columbia…it's an MFA from CCNY. Like, WTF." It's common knowledge that getting an MFA at City College is as hard as hailing a gypsy cab on 137th and Amsterdam. If you can fill the application out correctly, you're in like Flynn. Professors give out As like they're postcard ads for cellphone stores. Fluent English is not mandatory.
An MFA, after all, is the tramp stamp of Master's Degrees. Sometimes it's cheap, sometimes it's expensive, you spend a lot of time thinking about getting it and then once you get it, you totally forget about it. Other people who don't have one think it's cool initially, but those who do also have ambivalent feelings about it. A tramp stamp is something you get for decoration.
Yet this morning, I found myself, in cap, gown, and MFA hood, on the roof of the science building. In large part, my decision was sartorial: How could I pass up an opportunity to dress like Esteemed Professor McGonagall in the throes of late spring?
When the Dean of Arts and Sciences spoke about Maya Angelou this morning at the CCNY Commencement, he said something to the effect of: "When I learned this morning that Maya Angelou had passed away…" I don't know how that thought ended because the student body immediately started stage-whispering in a derisive way: "Doesn't he CHECK the NEWS?"
See, the majority of the web had killed Maya Angelou last night, Wednesday night, although she did not actually pass away until this morning. I knew this because my Facebook feed was inundated with quotes of hers, which I found very strange. A lot of my friends are non-students, which means that they'd never post a quote from an author, preferring to share memes and BuzzFeed articles. A lot of my friends are most definitely students, which means they'd never post a quote from such a widely-liked artist, preferring to share an overly-adjectived Memoirette of the Day, or lines from a Siri Hustvedt novel. Unless said author has died, in which case the first order of business is to google "maya angelo (sic) quotes" and slap that as a status update to show that we're compassionate, we're intellectual, and, most of all, we're trending.
We use a number sign to both absolve guilt and promote our awareness by using hashtags like #SaveOurGirls (girls most of us could truly not care less about on a daily basis if we tried) and #YesAllWomen (which presumes that women getting yelled at by construction workers in Midtown is as detrimental as gang rapes in the hood of Baltimore). The only logical way, then, to address the loss of a major literary icon is to post a ten-word quote from her million-word canon. The tragedy, according to the class of 2014, then, was not the loss of a writer and activist who dramatically changed the cultural landscape, but rather the fact that the Dean of Arts and Sciences hadn't checked worldstarhiphop.com.
But what's the other option? Not acknowledging her death? Negative. I started to wonder: What did people do in the past? They took to the streets and had memorial gatherings, they talked over meals, they wrote in their diaries. But wait: There was definitely an influx of jerks who wouldn't be able to identify "Thriller" from the first two chords wearing one glove when Michael Jackson died. I'm sure a good portion of the pseudo-punks who cried for Sid Vicious when he OD'd didn't know his mom bought him the fatal heroin. There's nothing exclusively millennial about wanting to be a part of something, even if you only knew about it peripherally. While hashtags and quote banks range from irritating to offensive, belonging to something is an integral part of the human experience. Even in a time where we're stuck between the crossed lines of the hashtag and reality, drowning in irony and making everything viral, we still need to connect.
What did I have to do at 9 o clock this Thursday that was more important than taking two hours to acknowledge two and a half years of my life that were spent in pursuit of self-improvement, or opening my mind, of meeting other people who are also unwilling to be complacent and ignorant? Nothing, really. Have we no self-worth?
I feel like the proliferation of possibilities causes us to feel inferior about the things we are, in fact, choosing to do; we concentrate on the things we've not done in deciding to do other things, and in order to mask our fear that we're not making the correct choices, we act blasé about these large life events.
This is why I ultimately decided to go to my graduation. Because if you're not going to your own graduation, then what exactly are you holding out for? Who else is going to respect the time and energy you've put into something? How many times are you actually going to be able to celebrate an accomplishment? Let me tell you: There's no parade for garnering SEO hits; there's no award ceremony for pooling the highest amount of tips on a Saturday night. From what I've seen, life is a whole lot of hard work that goes mostly unrecognized. Besides weddings and graduations and maybe a promotion or two, the only time you're going to get that dressed up and celebrate your achievements is your funeral, and I have this sneaking suspicion that you won't be as terrestrially involved in that party as you'd like.
Did I spend hours in the library? No. To be honest, I didn't even go in there until my fourth semester. Did I whip off certain papers with the aid of certain uppers mere hours before they were due after knowing about them for weeks? Did I cut class because I was too hungover and exhausted from working doubles and partying triples? Did I spend entire lit classes texting my friends across from me about how everyone else in the class was an idiot? Yes, yes, yes. But at the same time, I wrote hundreds and hundreds of pages, some good, most bad, that I'd been wanting and needing to write for a very long time. I translated chapters of Spanish and French novels into English, finished writing a play, and started writing multiple novels. I studied experimental women's poetry, for god's sakes.
I don't think that getting an MFA makes anyone a better writer. In fact, I'd venture to say that workshops have a tendency towards groupthink and tradition, and generally reject experimental writing. I think that some people can be aided with editing, and can improve their ability to read critically, but as far as I'm concerned, raw talent is raw talent and otherwise you're kind of fucked. Artistically speaking. What I do think an MFA does is make people aware that there's a way to live that's not focused solely on money, marriage, and me, me, me, as in My Small World, the things that are happening In This Moment Here. There is history and literature, the search for answers, and the simple awareness that, in a sea of acronyms and dotcoms and virtual reality, there are indeed people who haven't yet drowned.
So on that note, congratulations to everyone who did or didn't make it to their graduation this year. This is a cause for celebration. I'm heading downtown to get (another) tramp stamp.

The way that you wear your hair has an impact on your entire outfit. The most obvious area that is impacted is the neckline, whether that be a dress, a jacket, a sweater, or simple v-necks. Your hair is the essential finishing touch to these pieces and can help to pull an entire outfit together.
If you're a little confused as to how this works, then read on! You'll soon be able to look forward to the perfect outfit completed with the perfect hairstyle.
How Do Hair and Necklines Impact One Another?
Essentially, the issue is one of space; in this case, the "space" you are negotiating is the skin around your neck and clavicle. The amount you cover, or don't cover, is important. It influences the overall finished look of the top half of your body.
Your hair and the neckline of whatever garment you are wearing compete for this space. If you wear your hair loose, there's less room for the garment. An extreme example of how messy this can look can be brought to mind by imagining someone wearing a polo neck, and their hair loose. This creates competition; both the hair and the garment are competing for space.
The end result? The look is clunky, competitive, and far from the seamless idea we all imagine. However, if you wear a high neck with your hair worn up, there's no competition and the overall look is cleaner.
Should Your Hair Always Be Worn Up So It Doesn't Compete With The Neckline?
It's easy to think that, but in reality, that's not quite how it works. You don't need to remove your tape in hair extensions and consign yourself to wearing your hair in a chignon forever, there are times when long hair can be worn loose and not compete with a garment.
For example, if you are wearing a strapless dress, wearing your hair long and loose looks fantastic– as the skin on your neck is free from clothing, your hair can take center stage. Again, there's no competition. The same is true for deep V-necks, t-shirts, and any garment with spaghetti straps. Essentially, if you can touch the skin of your neck or shoulders without encountering fabric, then the garment will look great when worn with your hair down.
The deep V-neck means skin is shown, so the hair doesn't compete.
Are There Any Styles That Look Good With Any Neckline?
Yes, a half-up, half-down style will suit every neckline. As part of your hair is pulled back from your face, and thus pulled back from your neck, there is no competition in this region. You then still get the enjoyable length of the half of your hair that is down, so this look suits all necklines.
How Important Is It To Match Your Hair To Your Neckline?
It depends on the look you are trying to achieve. As a general rule, if you are aiming for a look that is chic, sophisticated, and timeless, you'll want to take these tips into account. If you're more focused on a carefree, relaxed vibe, then the neckline/hair debate is one you can largely ignore.
Hopefully, the above will have given you a primer on how to match your neckline to your hairstyle.

Frame- a film, media and dramatic arts school
South Africa's film and television industry is currently regarded as the biggest contributor to economic growth within the entertainment sector. Evidencing extraordinary growth, the industry has developed a dire need for professionals in the various fields of acting, film production, broadcasting and directing. In response, this project aims to assist in the amelioration thereof. It seeks to rethinks the role and functioning of the physical education campus in our current "Interactional Age" and intend to include the surrounding community within the learning envelope. The focus area comprises possibilities of urban integration into existing frameworks such as the Nelson Mandela Development Corridor (MDC) and the Re Kgabisa Tshwane transportation strategy. Furthermore this project propose the implementation of a pedestrianised arts and cultural boulevard, in an effort to revitalize the current degraded and highly fragmented sidewalk culture which exists in the area between Bloed Street Taxi Mall and the selected site. The site locality was of utmost importance within this project, as vicinity in this instance could very well determine project success. The proposed locality offered various catalytic surrounding functions, such as dining establishments, sport facilities and an already established student environment generated by the TUT Arts campus. The site locality within its context furthermore presented an opportunity to uplift the degraded Apies River by utilising the qualities of water when implemented adjacent architectural form.
The conceptualisation process was focused on locating parallels between architecture and film, these findings contributed greatly in the event of establishing a suitable building typology. Two local film institutions were visited and analysed, which formed the basis from which the proposed school's programme and functional requirements originated. Ultimately, this project aims to alter the current mono-functional nature of today's physical campus by promoting cultural and social partaking.

Native Foods
Rating: 4 stars
Native foods is vegan cafe in the 29th Street Mall in Boulder. They have a nice variety of gluten free options. One thing that I love is that my 3 year old daughter can eat there as well. They have a GF (and dairy free) mac and cheese which she loves.
I sometimes get the blackened tempe tacos or the salads.
The portions are large and for the most part I do enjoy eating here. I used to get the sweet potato fries because I was told they were gluten-free, and I did not feel well after. I was informed later, that they are fried in the same fryers as other gluten items.

Thermaltake View 71 TG Full-Tower Chassis Review
Final Thoughts
The View 71 TG is a beast and is well received. We have seen other cases with this many tempered glass panels, and while Corsair did a brilliant job with a similar design, we do feel that Thermaltake takes the top honors with this design. The thumbscrews are not that distracting to the overall aesthetic appeal of the case, and the use of hinges at the back of the side panels is something that everyone can appreciate. The frame is solid, even stripped down to basics, and the modularity of the HDD cage, options drive mounting locations, and the vertical GPU placement is standouts in this design. Taking things even further, we love all of the fan and radiator support options. Five locations to mount radiators, a removable tray at the top to make life easy on us and the use of Riing fans shining through the tempered glass is a fine addition as well. Overall, Thermaltake has won us over with this design and everything it brings to the table.
There are two things which stand out as misses for this chassis though. The first, and most important are the lack of a PCI-e extension cable. In our minds, if you are going to offer a vertical GPU mounting bracket, the buyer should be able to use it without additional costs involved. Suing Tt branded gear, for a Gen. 2 cables you need to add $29.99 at the minimum, and for a Gen. 3 cables the price jumps to $69.99 for the shortest one available. We also feel that filling the front of the chassis with Riing fans is the only logical choice, and to do this, we would have to spend another $18.99 per fan. So to get the full assortment of fans and the most affordable cable Tt offers, you will need to pony up an additional $70 just for it to do what the box makes it look like it should do anyway.
At $169.99 for the version we tested, we do not feel that Thermaltake is reaching too far with the price for all of the things we do get. However, on the flip side of that coin, to make the chassis look like the box shows it, at $230-240, we feel it is too much for many to justify. At $199 for the RGB version, we at least get three fans in the chassis as well as the hub and all the goodies to control them, and we feel that the View 71 TG RGB is the best bang for the buck. Thermaltake is so close to perfection and had they added a couple of fans and the PCI-e cable; they would have gotten a perfect score from us.
Even so, we find no major faults with the View 71 TG. As long as you don't mind putting a decent sized dent in your account for one of the best, tempered glass cases, to go through our labs, we strongly urge you to check out this modular, sleek, and roomy full-tower chassis.

Product Summary Breakdown
|Overall TweakTown Rating
The Bottom Line: It is huge, aesthetically pleasing, modular, and comes with plenty of features to please most customers! However, the price, with all of the extras needed to make this a spectacular specimen, will drive many away. We do still love the chassis, and recommend you give the View 71 TG a chance.

Breast milk is the best nutrition for babies. For the first few months of life it provides all the nutrition your baby needs1. If, however, you are unable to continue breastfeeding there are a number of alternative formulas available for infants with cow's milk allergy.
Breastmilk is the only nutrition babies need for the first six months of life. At around 4-6 months of age babies also need solids, in addition to breastmilk, to ensure they receive enough energy, protein and nutrients1. Breastmilk should continue to be the main drink for babies until about 12 months of age, providing an important source of nutrition1.
While breastfeeding provides the best nutrition for your baby, sometimes it is not possible. If you are unable to continue breastfeeding your baby with cow's milk allergy, the following options are available. It is important to discuss these options with your health care professional before making any changes to your baby's diet.
Under six months of age
If your baby is under six months of age and has cow's milk allergy, there are a number of alternatives available if you need to stop breastfeeding. Babies in this age group may be started on either an extensively hydrolysed formula (eHF) or an amino acid based formula (AAF)2. Both types of formulas can be obtained on prescription through your baby's doctor. These formulas will provide all the nutrition your child needs up until about six months of age.
Six to twelve months of age
If your baby is over six months of age, they will have recently started on solid foods. In addition to solids, your baby will also need to continue breastmilk or a suitable low allergy (hypoallergenic) infant formula. This formula can be either an eHF or an AAF2. Alternatively, if your child has been diagnosed with cow's milk allergy after six months of age, a soy based infant formula may also be appropriate2.
If your child is over twelve months of age, there is less need for breastmilk or formula. Most healthy children will receive enough energy, protein and nutrients by consuming foods similar to the rest of the family1. Toddlers should be offered small, frequent, nutrient dense meals including all five food groups1. Children with cow's milk allergy will need to replace dairy products and cow's milk with calcium containing alternatives3. There are a number of non-dairy food substitutes available that can provide the right mix of nutrients. For those children that refuse these foods or who require extra nutrition, a hypoallergenic formula may still be needed. An appointment with a dietitian may be helpful to explore the different substitute options.
Important: This information is intended as a guide only and should never replace any recommendation made by your healthcare professional.

Every year on August 15, the whole of India celebrates Independence Day. But what is the special thing on this day, which we got independence on August 15, 1947, at 12 o'clock?Try to find an answer to this question one by one. Get the Exclusive Collection of India independence day pictures 1947
First question- Why 1947?
From the mass movement of Gandhiji, the people of the country became aware of independence. On the other hand, the activities of the independent Hind Fighter of Subhash Chandra Bose were stuck in the nose of British rule. In 1945, at the time of the end of World War II, the British economic condition had become worse. Leave the other countries, they were unable to govern their country.
At the same time, the Labor Party's victory in the British elections in 1945 had opened the doors of independence because they had told their Manifesto to grant independence to other English colonies like India.
Despite the many differences and agitations, the talk of Indian leaders started with Lord Wavell and the dream of Independent India was on the verge of being true. Lord Mountbatten was elected the last Viceroy of India in February 1947, which was the work of arranging India independently in a systematic manner.
Second question- Why August 15?
Lord Mountbatten considered auspicious on August 15, when the Japanese Army surrendered on August 15, 1945, at the time of World War II and at that time Lord Mountbatten was the Commander of Allied Forces.
The third question- Why at 12 ?
When Lord Mountbatten gave the date of the independence from June 3, 1948, to August 15, 1947, there was a panic among the astrologers of the country. According to him, this date was auspicious and unholy. Lord Mountbatten was also recommended for other dates, but he remained firm on August 15. Well, after this, the astrologers followed a solution. They set a time of 12 o'clock on the night of 14th and 15th August, because according to the British, the day begins at 12 AM but according to the Hindu calendar, on the sunrise.
Not only this, he also told Nehru that he had to give his freedom of speech in Abhijit Muhurat between 11:51 PM to 12:39 AM. There was also another condition in it that Nehru would have to finish his speech by 12 o'clock in the night, after which the conch shell will be made, which will lead to the echo of the birth of a new country.
Today, 70 years have passed our country, so it is important for us to know why we got independence on August 15, 1947. Hope that India's Independence Day brings lots of happiness in your life too. Best wishes for Independence Day on behalf of Ghazbost Jai Hind.

A MEMBER of West Berkshire's Green Party has received a national award for his impact on local party politics.
Steve Masters received the Green Party's inspiring candidate award at the party's conference in Harrogate.
Mr Masters joined the party two years ago and is chairman of the West Berkshire branch.
He stood for election to West Berkshire Council in the Thatcham South and Crookham by-election earlier this year, finishing third with 590 votes (15.6 per cent).
It was the party's fourth best result in the country in terms of vote share – and was its highest-ever district council result.
Mr Masters said: "It's not just the person on the ballot paper or the face of the campaign, it's about all the people who stand behind you and lift you when you're down.
"It's a reflection of the growth and energy we have as a local party. We are getting more and more members all the time.
"I hope it's going to inspire more members of the party and maybe other people who see this online or in the paper, to realise that we can make a difference."
Mr Masters' citation, read by the Green MP for Brighton Pavilion, Caroline Lucas, described him as a very hard-working campaigner who had been out canvassing every day.
Mr Masters hit the campaign trail on a battle bike, speaking to commuters and calling for a bridge at Thatcham level crossing to cut down on air pollution.
Mr Masters, a former corporal in the RAF, was homeless for 10 months and joined the West Berkshire Save Our Services (SOS) campaign group in the wake of West Berkshire Council's drastic cuts to frontline services.
A trustee of Eight Bells for Mental Health, Mr Masters said that the cuts were affecting people's wellbeing.
"It affects people's lives and puts them under strain and stress and I think people are waking up to that locally," he said.
"I was homeless for 10 months and that had a profound impact on my outlook and mental health.
"It's appalling that we have so many homeless people in tents around Newbury and Thatcham.
"It's an absolute disgrace.
"The council should be ashamed of themselves... it's not even hidden away now."
Mr Masters said that the district needed to have a serious discussion on the 'taboo' subject of social housing.
He said: "We want to change the narrative and change the balance in West Berkshire, challenge the austerity and do things differently and be another voice in West Berkshire.
"Demographically we are very much on the upswing. The Lib Dems are in striking distance in a lot of seats. We have a lot of reasons to be encouraged."
Mr Masters shared the award with Ben Fletcher, a deaf and blind party member who stood as the Green candidate in Putney.

text: Wholesale inflation fell to 2.60 per cent in September as prices of food articles, led by vegetables, softened. Inflation, based on the wholesale price index (WPI), had soared to a four-month high of 3.24 per cent in August 2017. It was 1.36 per cent in September 2016. The government data released today showed that inflation in food articles tapered to 2.04 per cent in September, as against 5.75 per cent in August on an yearly basis. Inflation in vegetable prices cooled to 15.48 per cent in September, as against a high of 44.91 per cent in the previous month. Onion prices, however, continued to rule high with 79.78 per cent increase in September. In egg, meat and fish segment the rate of price rise was 5.47 per cent. Inflation in manufactured products witnessed a slight increase at 2.72 per cent, against 2.45 per cent in August. In fuel and power segment, inflation cooled to 9.01 per cent, against 9.99 per cent in August. Fuel inflation has remained high in the past two months as petrol and diesel prices continued to rule high relentlessly on global crude oil rates, while power tariffs shot through the roof on lower domestic production. Pulses continued to witness deflation at 24.26 per cent, likewise in potato at 46.52 per cent and wheat at 1.71 per cent. The final print of July WPI inflation remained unchanged from provisional estimate of 1.88 per cent. Data released earlier this week showed retail inflation at 3.28 per cent in September, unchanged from August, even as vegetable and cereal prices softened. Besides industrial production grew at a nine-month high of 4.3 per cent in August, mainly on account of robust performance of mining and power sectors coupled with higher capital goods output.

I have been eyeing this small kiosk in SM Southmall the past month but the only time I went up to them, they have ran out of the only thing I wanted to try which was the halo-halo. I mean, they only have 3 items on the menu (the other stuff were palabok and dinuguan) , you surely should have all of them available.
Days flew by and mom and I were looking for a new place to try. I was hungry but wasn't sure what I was looking for. A couple of restaurants didn't pass much to my liking, so when we finally passed by this area, I was happy to see there were customers seated in their small area, and what more, the halo-halo was available!
The portions were generous, especially knowing that the main brand they are competing with is about 50% more expensive! And what more, it actually tastes great! Like really good, better than its competitor Razon's. I am pushing the brand to other people and make them try it. Surprisingly though, a lot of people buy from there, considering that they only sell a few items. But happy to find a new great find!

'Yotes Notes: Hanzal Misses Game vs. Jets
Center Martin Hanzal left the team temporarily to attend to 'a family matter'by Dave Vest @davest4yotes / Coyotes Sr. Director of News Content
The Coyotes played Wednesday's game at Winnipeg minus center Martin Hanzal, who has left the team temporarily.
Head Coach Dave Tippett told reporters Hanzal flew back to Arizona because of "a family matter." He did not elaborate.
Without Hanzal, an alternate captain, the Coyotes lost to the Jets, 6-3, at the MTS Centre.
It's unclear if Hanzal, who ranks tied for second on the team with nine goals, will re-join the team in Minnesota for Thursday's game vs. the Wild.
The Coyotes missed Hanzal in the face-off circles on Wednesday; Winnipeg won 37 of 56 draws.
Defenseman Alex Goligoski served as an alternate captain in place of Hanzal.
• Playing his second game for Arizona and his first game vs. Winnipeg, center Alexander Burmistrov assisted on Jakob Chychrun's goal at 14:42 of the third period. He also took two shots, blocked two shots and delivered two hits.
Burmistrov, whom Arizona claimed off waivers from Winnipeg on Jan. 2, has notched one assist in both games he's played for the Coyotes. He played a team-high 20:44 in Wednesday's game, the 300th of his NHL career. Burmistrov began his career after the Winnipeg franchise, based in Atlanta at the time, drafted him eighth overall in 2010.
• Chychrun's goal was the rookie's second of the season and his first since Oct. 20.
• Forward Josh Jooris gave Arizona a short-lived 1-0 lead by scoring his first goal as a member of the Coyotes at 2:49 of the first period.
• Defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson scored a power-play goal at 8:50 of the first period to give Arizona a 2-1 lead. Ekman-Larsson has scored eight of his 85 NHL goals (9.3 percent) vs. Winnipeg in just 15 games.
"We haven't been able to put 60 minutes together and we're going to have to find ways to do that," Ekman-Larsson said. "It's frustrating right now."
Video: Oliver Ekman-Larsson discusses Coyotes' loss to Jets
• Captain Shane Doan notched an assist on Ekman-Larsson's goal and has 12 points (seven goals, five assists) in his past nine games against the Jets.
"They picked up their level (in the second period) and we didn't match it," Doan said. "... We had a couple opportunities, (Ondrej) Pavelec made a big save for them to keep it 3-2 or 4-2 or whatever. They seemed to get more jump off of that and we've got to be better. We got to find ways to compete better."
Video: Shane Doan discusses Coyotes' 6-3 loss to Jets
• Head Coach Dave Tippett pulled starter Mike Smith at 8:59 of the third period after he gave up six goals on 35 shots. After the game, Tippett did not publicly disclose if Smith or Louis Domingue, who made four saves in relief vs. the Jets, would start Thursday's game at Minnesota.
• With the loss, Arizona's record dropped to 0-5-2 at MTS Centre since the Jets rejoined the NHL in 2011.
"Just too much time in your defensive zone," Tippett said. "You're going to have breakdowns. That's the law of averages. When you don't do enough offensively, you defend too much and that's what we did."

Dear Constituent:
I want to thank all of those who attended the visioning discussion I held on Monday, October 4th regarding the Julia de Burgos Latino Cultural Center. I was very encouraged by those who spoke about what they would like to see come into the space as a result of the Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEI) process, such as the importance of opening up regular arts programming for youth in our community, as a strategy to address the rise in violence we are witnessing. I hope we can continue to have this dialogue as the process moves forward so that our community's input is taken into account seriously by the Economic Development Corporation (EDC), and I will ensure that this happens.
Unfortunately, there is still a great deal of misinformation about the RFEI and its implications on the current operations of the space. First, Taller Boricua is not being ejected from the Cultural Center. The City will continue to renew Taller Boricua's lease for the gallery space on the first floor and the offices on the second floor. The RFEI is for the operation of the multicultural and theater spaces only, paving the way for enhanced arts and cultural programming that will bring the Center closer to reaching its full potential, and presenting an opportunity to a greater number of cultural organizations to share this hard-fought-for community asset, which belongs to the greater community.
Additionally, it has been purported that the City has forced Taller Boricua to suspend Salsa Wednesdays. I have verified with EDC that they have never pressured anyone at the Center to terminate these activities. I am a strong supporter of Salsa Wednesdays as an important program that has brought members of our community together each week in a positive way to celebrate Puerto Rican culture. Taller Boricua's current lease of the multicultural space (where Salsa Wednesdays is held) will be renewed month to month until the new operator is identified. Understanding the community's strong support for this event, I am committed to ensuring that whoever is selected through the RFEI process will continue this tradition.
My support for EDC's decision to release an RFEI for these spaces does not negate my deep respect and appreciation for the historic work and contributions that Taller Boricua has made to El Barrio. However, I feel strongly that we must also be realistic in looking at processes of succession and organizational planning for our neighborhood institutions to ensure that El Barrio continues to grow and thrive while also maintaining our community's identity.
I continue to welcome productive comments going forward on this matter as to how individuals and organizations in the community would like to see this vital community resource utilized. Please feel free to continue to contact me via our District Office or through our blog.
