Buying locally-grown produce saves money on gas and gets fresher vegetables onto your plate, and now several web services connect local farmers with consumers. The NY Times' Michelle Slatalla points out several such services, including Spud.com in California, Greenling.com in Texas, Naturaldirect.com in Illinois, Organicstoyou.org in Oregon and Mypersonalfarmers.com in New York State.
These web sites differ from the earlier generation of produce-delivery ones for two reasons: they all deliver products from local farms to nearby customers (whereas in the past it was rare to find an online organic produce delivery service that didn't rely solely on a wholesaler). Second, these new sites all allow users to easily customize their standing-order box weekly.
That means you can select the particular size box for your household, and choose to say, only get grapefruits, strawberries, and avocados grown within 500 miles of your home. I've gotten a weekly box of local veggies for almost a year now, and while it forces you to learn what to do with an armful of fresh shard faster than you ever planned, it's also made me cook and eat at home more, and reduced grocery store trips a whole lot. Are you a local veggie delivery type? Got any tips and tricks for dealing with the box? Let us know in the comments.

Lobaria pulmonaria
& Symbiochloris reticulata
Being the textbook example for mutualistic symbioses, lichens
represent an association of a fungus - usually an ascomycete - with
one or several photosynthetic partners, the photobionts.
Photobionts can be green algae or cyanobacteria. In lung lichen
(Lobaria pulmonaria), the primary photobiont is the green
alga Symbiochloris reticulata, but the lichens also
contain Nostoc cyanobacteria in internal structures called
cephalodia. These internal cyanobacteria fix atmospheric nitrogen,
thus contributing to lichen growth and to the ecosystem nitrogen
balance. Some consider today's populations of L.
pulmonaria to be relicts of a time when the species was very
abundant in the far moister Tertiary climate. The lichen species is
threatened and continuously declining because of complex
interactions between the lichen's spatial distribution, abundance
and genetic diversity of populations, and the type, spatial extent,
frequency and severity of disturbance of the lichen habitat i.e.
natural and managed forests (Scheidegger & Werth 2009).
Lobaria pulmonaria's green-algal
photobiont Symbiochloris reticulata has a spherical
chloroplast located close to the cell wall (parietal), forming an
intricate, net-like, structure (Škaloud et al. 2016); this
chloroplast shape also explains the species' name
("reticulata" meaning net-shaped). Asexual reproduction
occurs by 4-8(-16) autospores, stages of sexual reproduction are so
far unknown. The majority of lichen photobionts including S.
reticulata belongs to the class Trebouxiophyceae, and this
green alga teams up with the ascomycete family Lobariaceae. In
nemoral and boreal ecosystems of Europe, other lichen fungi pairing
up with this photobiont are rare (Lobaria virens,
Ricasolia amplissima) (Dal Grande et al. 2014). In
subtropical forests, S. reticulata is shared among several
species of lichen-forming fungi of the Lobariaceae.
For most lichens, an individual green
algal photobiont species associates with many lichen-forming fungi,
and a single lichen-forming fungus partners with several green
algal species. However, Lobaria pulmonaria pairs up with
only a single green-algal species, and is therefore one of the most
specific symbioses known in lichens to date. The association is
mainly transmitted vertically with some episodes of horizontal
transmission (Dal Grande et al. 2012; Werth & Scheidegger
2012). In Europe, phylogeographic structures are highly similar for
Lobaria pulmonaria and Symbiochloris reticulata
(Widmer et al. 2012). Moreover, a high frequency of geographically
restricted alleles indicates that Southern Italy and the Balkans
are primary refugial areas, characterized by long-term historical
continuity of the symbiotic association, possibly over several
glacial-interglacial cycles.
Genetic structures are highly similar
among the two symbionts also on smaller spatial scales (Werth &
Scheidegger 2012; Nadyeina et al. 2014). One of the most striking
population genetic patterns found in lichens to date is that of
Lobaria pulmonaria where two fungal-algal gene pools
showed climatic associations, one occurring on mountain ridges and
the other in valleys and slopes of the Carpathian mountains
(Nadyeina et al. 2014). This pattern may have been shaped by
natural selection.

The term jurisdiction refers to a given ecclesiastical entity and its parishes. Traditionally and canonically, all the parishes in a given region are governed by one bishop. Jurisdiction is used particularly in those areas where this traditional order has been upset and multiple ecclesiastical entities claim parishes in overlapping territories. Thus, it is a term of distinction which exists mainly because of an uncanonical situation. In English, it has also come to refer generally to all self-governing churches (even those whose territories do not suffer from canonical disorder), in order to reserve the word "church" for the Orthodox Church as a whole, rather than its component parts.
As the 19th century passed into the 20th emigration of people from traditionally Orthodox areas increased, bringing mixes of Orthodox Christians of different ethnic and nationalistic leanings into traditionally non-Orthodox areas, the so-called diaspora. While attempts were made to form a single new canonical episcopate in these countries, notably in North America, each ethnic group relied on their home church for support.
The 20th century also witnessed several waves of emigration from traditionally Orthodox lands, particularly during the two World Wars and the various regional wars and civil wars that followed in their aftermath (such as the Russian Civil War or the Greco-Turkish War). This accelerated the dispersions of Orthodox people and further complicated the ethnic identity issues with political issues. The result has been that some countries which received large numbers of immigrants (such as the United States) ended up with a proliferation of Orthodox groups that depend organizationally on their historical old world churches. The term jurisdiction has become the norm for referring to these various Orthodox groups within the new territories.

OverviewProduced from 1963 to 1966, the GP35, along with its six-axle SD35 sibling, marked both an end and a beginning. They were the last road diesels to use the EMD 567 motor that had powered switchers, F-units, and Geeps since 1939 (so named because each cylinder displaced 567 cubic inches). For the horsepower race of the 1960s, EMD tweaked the 567 to a turbocharged V-16 delivering 2500 hp. That was it for the 567, however, and in 1966 the baton was passed to the more powerful model 645. But while the "35 line" diesels ushered out an old motor, they inaugurated a new look. Their angled cab roofs and the clean, squared-off lines of their car bodies established the look of EMD power for the next three decades. Introduced to compete with General Electric's landmark U25B, which had ushered in the second generation of diesel power, the GP35 outsold the "U-Boat" nearly three to one. There was a strong market for new power in the mid-1960s because the first-generation diesels that had vanquished steam were wearing out. While first-generation rosters had often been a hodgepodge of manufacturers and models as railroads experimented with the new technology, by 1960 Alco, EMD, and GE were the only manufacturers left standing - and Alco would soon throw in the towel. As a result, virtually every major U.S. railroad became a GP35 customer and over 1300 engines were sold in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In what we believe is the finest, ready-to-run HO GP-35 diesel to ever be produced, HO modelers will find the best combination of detail, realism, and performance of any 1/87 scale GP35. Added-on detail parts include windshield wipers, metal see-thru body grilles, lift rings, metal grab irons and handrails, see-thru rooftop fan housings, and brake cylinders, air pipes, and swing hangers on our super-detailed Blomberg trucks. Our highly detailed model includes a broader range of features than you'll find on any other HO scale diesel, including lighted number boards; smooth performance from a three-scale-mile-per-hour crawl to full throttle; "cruise control" for steady speeds regardless of curves, switches and grades; built-in decoders for DCC and the M.T.H. DCS Digital Command System; and a full range of sounds recorded from a prototype GP35. If you're looking for durable motive power that's accurately detailed, smooth running, and a great deal of fun to operate, it doesn't get any better than this.

On this Memorial Day, I can't imagine a more wonderful wedding to share with y'all! Stefanie and Kevin are as all-American as a couple can be, and their Tennessee wedding was the perfect expression of their love for each other, for their families and friends, and for their country. Military families are no stranger to hardship (Stefanie planned the wedding while Kevin was deployed abroad), but the tough times these two have endured together made their wedding day all the more joyful!
Thank you from the bottom of hearts to Kevin and Stefanie, all of the military men and women and their families who serve our great country, and to our Blue Ribbon Vendor Bamber Photography for sharing this special day with us!
Instead of having a flower girl, my matron of honor's little girl carried our family Bible that was given to my grandmother in 1954. Every woman in my family has used the Bible in their weddings. We each chose someone in our life that had been a spiritual mentor to us, and we let them choose the scripture they read during the ceremony. They chose Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 and Proverbs 3:5-9. Becca stood with the bridesmaids, and as each reader came to the front of the church to read, Becca handed them the family Bible to read from.
I'm very fortunate to have a dear friend who owns Ever After Bridal in Cleveland, Tennessee, and I'm so thankful I got to experience finding my dress with her. I had found one dress in her shop that I really liked, but it didn't give me that feeling that everyone talks about having! I had convinced myself that I was just numb to dresses because I had worn so many beautiful gowns during my time as Miss Tennessee. My mother and future mother-in-law went with me to order the dress, and when we walked into her shop, I perused the racks of beautiful gowns one last time. Since Kevin's mom was with us, I decided to try on a few more so she could enjoy the experience with me. I randomly pulled a Maggie Sottero fit and flare, beaded lace gown with a sweetheart neckline off of the rack. Kendra helped me into the dress (that was the opposite of what I thought I was looking for), I walked out to the mirror, and I finally had THE MOMENT! I had tried to find a dress that just wasn't my style, and I never found it. When I finally just chose something that was ME, it happened!
Our favorite detail of the wedding was: People got dressed up and had a good time! Kevin and I both love to dress up, and my mother has always told me that its better to be overdressed than underdressed! I feel like weddings are getting more and more casual, and casual just isn't in my vocabulary! In keeping with the classic military traditions of an evening wedding, and the fact that we wanted our guests to look and feel fabulous, we requested that our guests wear formal attire. Our guests looked so beautiful, and everyone said that they loved the excuse to pull out that dress they hadn't gotten to wear in a while, or the excuse to buy something new! Because our guests felt good, they stayed, danced, and enjoyed drinks until the very end!
Describe your wedding flowers. Since we had a classic military wedding, where the men were in their uniforms and classic tuxedos and my bridesmaids wore beautiful nude gowns, we chose to go with flowers in all shades of white and ivory. They were arranged by Flowers By Gil & Curt. Flowers in the bouquets and reception centerpieces included roses, peonies, ranunculus, hydrangeas, and calla lilies.
We considered getting married at West Point in the Protestant Cadet Chapel. It's a beautiful Gothic-style chapel with a cathedral ceiling and a gorgeous pipe organ. After thinking it through, we decided it would be too difficult to plan a wedding in New York, and it would be tough for all of our family and friends to make it. We set out to find a similar style church nearby, and discovered First Cumberland Presbyterian! It is SO similar in style to the Cadet Chapel, and it was in our hometown of Chattanooga. Before I left for Las Vegas to compete in the 2010 Miss America Pageant, my hometown and family gave me lovely going away reception at the Chattanooga Golf and Country Club. The venue is historic and beautiful, and the staff was so wonderful to work with, so we decided it would be the perfect spot for our wedding reception as well.
I always remember my parents telling me how their wedding day was such a blur, so I was bound and determined to soak in every detail of our wedding–I didn't want to miss a thing! I'm sure there are some things I missed, but I certainly remember the big parts. I remember how I felt when I woke up that morning, I remember the look on my mother and daddy's faces when they saw me in my gown for the first time, I remember the sweet smile on Kevin's face when he turned around and we walked toward each other during our first look, I remember the facial expressions of each guest that I looked at as I walked down the aisle, I remember the beautiful words of the prayers that were said during the ceremony, I remember saying our vows, and I remember how amazing it felt to walk arm in arm under the Arch of Sabers with my new husband! I also remember the traditional pop on my booty as one of the saber guard members welcomed me into the United States Army! It was the perfect day, and I'm so thankful that we were able to share it with the ones we love the most.
What was the biggest challenge you had to overcome while planning your wedding? Kevin being deployed the entire year our families and I were wedding planning was challenging. It allowed me to stay busy, but it was hard because I wanted him to be a part of the decision making process in person. We made it work though! Thanks to technology, he was able to be a part of many decisions via text, FaceTime, and email. Even a world away, an eight-hour time difference, and the 200 soldiers he was responsible for, he still managed to help me so much! He's a good man.
We wanted to make sure that not only were our cakes beautiful, they were also tasty! Breanne Hager of B's Sweet in Chattanooga has the best cakes in town! I wanted something fairly simply, but accented with sparkle. We decided to go with a five-tiered Italian cream cake with buttercream icing. At the base of each layer were graduating strands of crystals, and on the top of the cake sat my Miss Tennessee crown with white roses tucked underneath its base. In keeping with military tradition, Kevin and I cut our cakes with his Officer saber.
What Southern details or traditions did you include in your celebration? What was Southern about your wedding? Aside from the loads of hairspray that filled the bridal parlor while we were getting ready (we sure love our hairspray in the South), the main thing that stands out was the Southern music. When I won Miss Tennessee, I had sang Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You." The song is about loving someone enough to let them go. The song fit my relationship with my parents perfectly, and it was a reminder of a very beautiful time we all experienced together when I won the title. They're so happy that the time in my life has come for me to start my own family and be with the love of my life, even though it means letting go of a part of life that is very difficult to part with. Family is so important to Kevin and me, and being able to have such sentimental moments with them was the best part of our wedding.
Kevin's groom's cake was an edible replica of a Walther PPK handgun, which laid on top of a gun case made of chocolate cake. Kevin is a gun collector and the Walther PPK is James Bond's gun of choice in all of the Bond films. Kevin has a rather collection, but he did not have the Walther. When it was time to do the garter toss, Kevin reached under my dress, and in my garter, he found his very own Walther PPK gun! It was his wedding gift from me. His reaction was priceless, as he had no idea his new bride was packing heat! I had sneaked out right before the toss and secured the gun in my garter, and the surprise went off without a hitch!
How did y'all meet? Tell us your love story. As cliché as it sounds, we were high school sweethearts! I was a cheerleader and Kevin was a football player. Kevin's dream was to serve his country, so after months of applying, interviewing, and going on recruiting trips during his senior year, he received his appointment from Tennessee Congressman Zach Wamp to attend the United States Military Academy at West Point, and we decided we would give long-distance a try. Four years and thousands of frequent flyer miles later, we made it through his time at the Academy. After he graduated, he was commissioned as an officer into the United States Army. During this time, I was in college and living out a few dreams of my own. In 2009 I was crowned Miss Tennessee. It was the honor of a lifetime, and a time that I will cherish forever! On January 10, 2010 I headed to Las Vegas to compete in the Miss America Pageant, and on that same day, Kevin left the country for his first year-long deployment in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. As I stood on the Miss America stage, my heart was full, yet heavy, knowing that he was defending the freedom that allowed me to live out my lifelong dream. I finished as second runner-up to Miss America, and a year later, Kevin made a safe return home! I spent the next few years working and finishing my business degree at Belhaven University with the scholarships I had earned through the Miss America organization. Just when we thought that he was home for a while, another deployment was on the horizon. Once we knew the exact time he was going to be returning, we set our wedding date. He was the battery commander to 200 soldiers spread throughout three different countries, and I began planning our wedding! We are so proud that we maintained a close relationship, even though, at times, we were a world apart from each other. It makes our time together now so incredibly special, and we certainly do not take that time for granted.
Tell us all about the proposal! Because we are proud Americans to the core, and its our favorite holiday, Kevin proposed on the 4th of July. Under the fireworks, where it was just the two of us with a pizza and a bottle of wine, he popped the question with a gorgeous custom-designed Henri Daussi cushion cut diamond ring from our family jeweler, Rone Regency Jewelers of Chattanoooga. Kevin is private, and I love that about him. He wanted the proposal to be a special moment between the two of us, and he planned it just perfectly.

How many friends, family members, and loved ones attended your wedding? 175
Did you write your own vows? If so, what was your favorite phrase, verse or line? We chose to speak traditional vows during our ceremony. My grandfather was a Southern Baptist minister for 49 years, and he married my parents in 1983, so we used the same vows that they used in their wedding. Both of our parents have had long, beautiful marriages, so if traditional vows were good enough for them, they're good enough for us!
If you are comfortable responding, what range did your wedding budget fall into? $25,000-$50,000
What is the one detail or vendor that you were so happy to have as a part of your wedding? Documentation! Investing in a good photographer and videographer was the best advice I was given during planning, and it's the best decision we made. John and Lindsey Bamber of Bamber Photography were indescribable! From the initial meeting, to the engagement shoot, to the sweet cards we received in the mail just saying they were thinking about us and praying for us along the way, they were such a blessing during our special day and in the months leading up to it. We were so comfortable with them, and they literally captured everything! Each time a guest came up to Kevin and me during the reception, either John or Lindsey was right there to capture a picture with that guest. It's wonderful being able to send our guests that professional, beautiful picture! They truly are the best at their craft, and they're just the best people you'll ever meet.
What advice do you have for folks currently planning a wedding? Take your time if you truly want to enjoy the process. I did not hire a wedding planner because I wanted to have my hand on every detail and experience that time with my mother. Also, include your future in-laws! Kevin's parents really enjoyed the process as much as we did, and they loved hearing all of the updates as the months progressed closer to April. I understand that not all in-laws are the easiest to deal with, (just being honest), but I am very blessed with some good ones! And they're Yankees! We won't hold that against them too much ;)
What's next for you as a couple? What memories are you looking forward to making together? As I type this, I'm surrounded by boxes, because we are making the move from North Carolina to Kentucky! Kevin has been posted here at Fort Bragg for the past three years as a Battery Commander, and now its time for him to take a new position at Fort Knox. We couldn't be more excited–new marriage, new town, new jobs, new adventures, and we're four hours closer to our family and friends in Chattanooga! And thank the Lord we're still in the South! He's excited to be in bourbon country, and I'm already planning my wardrobe for the Kentucky Derby next year!

December 5, 2015
Last month, I was speaking in Elmira, N.Y., when a reader posed the question I've been continually asked since July when I wrote about downsizing my life.
"Tell us how life in your mobile home is going."
As the TV news anchors say, "If you're just now joining this developing story …" you should know that my wife and I sold our five-bedroom McMansion and moved into a 40-year-old double-wide mobile home in south Sacramento.
Some of my readers thought our modest move was admirable, but most questioned why we'd trade a manicured subdivision for a manufactured home surrounded by industrial parks.
However, one reader in particular — let's call her "Mrs. Chaplain" — thought my columns overstated the downside of our downsizing. Normally Becky's my best editing voice, so I listened to her insistence that I write a retraction for exaggerating the negatives and understating the positives.
I told her it was hard to see those positive attributes during my morning fitness routine that crosses a dangerously busy street to join a running path along the southern side of an electronics plant. As I round the backside of their compound, I turn north along the railroad track where homeless folks rise from their camps in overgrown fields and from beneath creek bridges.
Nevertheless, Becky thinks that I should emphasize the upside of our downsize. For instance, the security in our gated park makes it quiet enough to be a golf course. The only noise comes from the Shar-Peis and poodles yapping through open porch doors as retired residents bid them to stop. Flags wave and wind chimes sing while bird feeders sway above cleanly swept porches.
She particularly likes the wildlife in the park, where some days she sees a gaggle of geese crossing the road. She's fond of watching the covey of quail that scurry below the shrubs, and the nest of rabbits that scamper for their holes.
When I admit to her how I sometimes miss our cavernous two-story house, she pushes back.
"You don't miss our house. You miss our neighbors."
She's right.
We miss our old cul-de-sac. We miss the fix-it advice we got from Melvin and the good food we got from Thomas and Lupe. I even miss sharing Neighborhood Watch stories with Michelle, the nurse across the street. I don't really miss Mike's practical jokes but I could use more of Les' golf tips.
Gratefully, we're staying in touch with old friends, but we're also making new ones. My young neighbor, Taylor, built a gate for me to keep my yapper dog inside our patio. My other neighbor, Joe, attends church with me and also watches our home when I'm on speaking engagements.
"So," you ask, "how are you are doing with your downsize?"
I think we're doing well. That's because we took with us those things that make our house into Norris and Becky's home. We brought our beds, our art, our favorite chairs, our family photos, golf clubs and holiday decorations.
But, more important than furniture and mementos, we brought a sense of ourselves into our new home. We brought our adventurous spirit, our consciousness of togetherness and an understanding of what is essential in life. We brought our faith.
Maybe that's what Proverbs 24:3-4 means: "By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches."
Hopefully, that answers the question and hopefully Mrs. Chaplain won't think I downplayed the downside of downsizing. Couldn't resist that one.

For the record. Yesterday, ABC News via AP reported on an emergency landing of a U.S. plane in Iran more than two weeks ago:
A small American commercial plane left Iran Sunday after it was repaired following an emergency landing at an Iranian airport this month, state TV reported:
The plane was forced to land 16 days ago at the airport of the southern city of Ahvaz due to technical failure, Mahmoud Rasoulinejad, head of the state-owned Iran Airports Company, told the TV station.
Rasoulinejad said three passengers left Iran for Arab countries in the Gulf, but the plane remained under repair in the airport. He said the plane took off from Iran Sunday upon arrival of needed spare parts and completion of repairs.
It was not clear why the announcement of the plane's landing was not made earlier.
Iran is a member of the International Civil Aviation Organization, or ICAO, which requires members to come to the aid of civilian aircraft when requested.
The service was provided though Iran and U.S. are at odds over Tehran's suspect nuclear program. The West believes it might be aimed at weapons development, a charge Iran denies.
A separate report by state TV said the Falcon-900 plane had one passenger and two crew members and was flying to Rotterdam in the Netherlands from Abu Dhabi in United Arab Emirates when it encountered mechanical difficulties.
It said a French team from Abu Dhabi repaired the plane at Ahvaz airport.
Every day some 500 foreign airplanes pass through Iranian airspace, including 30 American aircraft.

why was president Ahmadenijad just coincidently at the airport at the time. Unscheduled.

This was Hillary's plane that diverted unscheduled, that crashed. More likely cause of recent blood clot.

Brain Stimulation May Treat Bulimia
SAN DIEGO — A mild electrical stimulation to a specific brain area could be an effective treatment for some patients with eating disorders such as bulimia, who suffer from episodes of severe binge eating and purging behaviors, researchers say.
After one 42-year-old woman received the electrical stimulation, called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), as a treatment for her depression, and showed an unexpected recovery from her 20-year battle against bulimia nervosa, her doctors conducted a pilot study to see whether the treatment would also work for other patients with eating disorders, said Dr. Jonathan Downar, of the University of Toronto. Downar described the study Tuesday (Nov. 12) here at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience.
In the study, Downar and his colleagues recruited 20 patients with bulimia and stimulated a part of their frontal lobes called the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, which is next to the brain region usually stimulated for treating depression. The patients, who had already tried conventional therapies and medications but had seen no improvement, received 20 sessions of electrical stimulation daily for four weeks.
At the end of the treatment, six of the patients saw their binge eating and purging symptoms almost completely disappear. In another four patients, symptoms improved by more than 50 percent. Eight patients saw only little improvement, and two got worse, Downar said.
Although larger studies and clinical trials are needed to confirm the results of the pilot study, Downar said he is optimistic about the promise of using TMS for treating certain patients with eating disorders. [5 Controversial Mental Health Treatments]
"There are lots of things you could do to treat disorders like depression, but for these folks [with bulimia], there's really nothing if they have gone through all of the medications" and therapy options, Downar said.
Eating disorders, such as anorexia and bulimia, affect more than 8 million people in North America. These disorders often carry emotional distress, disrupt the person's normal life and can even lead to life-threatening medical problems.

TMS is a relatively new technique, and involves a large electromagnetic coil that is placed over the skull, and changes the activity in a targeted brain region by inducing electric currents. Although the change is temporary and reversible, with repeated stimulation, doctors can create lasting changes in neuronal activity. Repeated TMS has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a treatment for some forms of depression.
In the study, the researchers used brain imaging to examine whether differences in brain activity could explain why some patients respond well to TMS treatment while others show little or no improvement.
They found that before the treatment, responders had lower connectivity between the frontal lobe and a set of brain areas (such as the striatum) that are linked to rewards and cravings. This low connectivity could be a sign of impulsiveness, and stimulation may have helped to make the missing connection in these patients' brains, Downar said.
In contrast, the brains of the people whose bulimia was not helped by TMS appeared more connected in those areas. In these patients, TMS appears to be ineffective in treating bulimia because the brain stimulation is "giving them something they don't need, because they already have it," Downar said.
The brain imaging results suggest that doctors may be able to identify which patients will respond to TMS treatment, and spare others from a weeks-long treatment.
"By using brain imaging to detect these patterns, we may eventually be able to predict which patients are most likely to benefit," Downar said.

BALINIT® C STAR is ideal for soft base materials. Its hard, tough chromium nitride-based metal layer guarantees optimal surface hardness and support (load-bearing capacity) for the superposed carbon coating (WC/C).
The WC/C coating offers outstanding adhesive wear protection, while its low coefficient of friction reduces the risk of surface fatigue and tribo-oxidation. The compact chromium nitride layer simultaneously enhances component corrosion resistance.
The result is a flawless, homogeneous coating of unique quality and adhesion.
These properties make it the ideal coating for components made of soft base materials, such as titanium, non-ferrous metals or stainless steel, high surface pressures, plain bearings and gearings. At the same time, BALINIT® C STAR is ideally suited for non-lubricated systems in clean rooms and, thanks to FDA approval, for food production applications.
- Excellent protection against adhesive wear (scuffing)
- Reduces surface fatigue
- Reduces tribo-oxidation (fretting corrosion)
- Increases load-carrying capability

If you're from KY you know that the Kentucky Derby is a big deal here. My planning this year failed miserably because Tim was actually at Churchill Downs serving up the Woodford Reserve $1000 Mint Juleps. And somehow most of the people I know were either at the event working, out of town, or just wanted to quietly watch the race at home (and I think some were partying with a group of parrotheads.)
But I decided I was going to dress up anyway, posted on facebook to see if anyone had any last minute invites and crossed my fingers that a party would either appear or someone would at least go have a Mint Julep at a bar with me to watch the Derby itself.
Nope, no such luck but I was determined to head out anyway. I did luck out that there was actually an available seat at Harry's bar over in Palomar.
And I chickened out on the hat mostly because I didn't want to either block someone's view, hit someone with it or take it off and have to find a place to store it.
- Hat:Forever21 Basketweave Floppy Hat for only $5.50! I had come across this the night before and thought it was perfect.
- Dress: strapless from White House / Black Market bought a couple of years ago.
- Cardi: Target Mossimo bought a couple of years ago. Because I didn't want to wear a strapless bra with the strapless dress I threw this on so you couldn't tell. Usually I don't tie it but it worked better with this dress tied.
- Shoes: Simply Vera heels from Kohl's mentioned here previously.
And in case you were wondering, I did drive through betting at Keeneland on Friday. I really wanted Hansen to win. Actually the horse with the best name was Daddy Long Legs but usually those that I'm drawn to like that tend to come in dead last. I had bet Hansen, Bodemeister, and Take Charge Indy for the trifecta and I had also bet a couple of others as well. The only winning ticket I had was Bodeimeister to Place (which means come in first or second) so I will get $6.20 back of the $18 I bet 🙂

If you are just beginning to look into acupuncture, you will be exposed to language you probably aren't familiar with. One of the first phrases you might come across is the term "meridian." Meridians are defined as the invisible channels through which qi (or energy) circulates throughout the body. The acupuncture points are the locations where the qi of the channels rises close to the surface of the body.
What acupuncture seeks to do is restore the balance of energy and the appropriate energy flow to these meridians which allows the body to function normally and return to health more naturally. Meridians exist in corresponding pairs and each meridian has multiple acupuncture points along the channels.
In total, it is generally understood that there are fourteen main meridians throughout the body. There is a meridian that runs up the center of the body on the front and another that runs along the spine. The other 12 meridians run from head to toe along the rest of the body. Each limb is traversed by six channels, three yin and three yang in nature. Yin channels are located on the inside surfaces and the yang channels are located on the outside surfaces. Each yin organ (lung, heart, kidney, liver, spleen) is paired with its corresponding yang organ (large intestine, stomach, small intestine, bladder, and gallbladder). In order for the body to function properly, there must be balance between the yin and yang.
Now that we have defined "qi" as energy and the meridians as essentially the highway on which qi travels, what is this concept of yin and yang in acupuncture? There is a basic understanding in Western culture as to the meaning of yin and yang but the give and take of yin and yang in the human body is not as easily understood. This concept is actually a cornerstone in traditional acupuncture and Chinese medicine. In a nutshell, it is believed that every entity in the universe carries both positive and negative influences. The negative is defined as yin and the positive as yang. Yin and yang are never static and always fluctuating. The yin/yang symbol provides a visual example of the balancing act that goes on constantly in our bodies.
When your acupuncturist places a needle to stimulate a certain acupuncture point along the meridian, this helps to restore the normal balance and flow of qi (or energy) so your organs and bodily systems can work together in harmony as intended. This sets the stage for the body to repair itself and maintain overall health and wellness. The goal is typically threefold: relieve any pain or other symptoms, strengthen the immune system, and balance the organ functions with each other for optimum health.
As acupuncturists and practitioner of Chinese Medicine, don't be afraid to ask us any questions if you don't fully understand some of the terminology. The more you know about this ancient form of medicine, the better you'll understand how it can impact your health for the better. Give us a call today if you are interested in giving acupuncture a try or have more questions about how acupuncture can benefit you and your health care goals.

Stripe Home
At Stripe, we've always been intentional about how we communicate, share information, and stay connected. Back when Stripe was smaller, it was easy for this to happen automatically. But by the time we hit around 150 people, it became hard to know everyone's name. So at a company hackathon, a few Stripes created People, a directory to help Stripes meet and get to really know each other.
People focused on connecting individuals across the company: Stripes could set their own bios, create networks around common interests, and generally experiment with new ways to express who they are. People also gave us our first concept of a people API, which set the stage for automating our notification systems and made it quick to roll out new people-oriented features (like seating charts!).
We've since turned People turned into a full-fledged product called Home, weaving both how we know one another and share information beyond email into the same product. Used by 99% of Stripes in the last month, Home is the source of truth for who we are, what we're doing, and why—and a platform for enabling individuals and helping them get to know one another.
Here's a quick tour through a few Home highlights:
People worldwide
The people at Stripe are what bring and keep so many of us here, so we've made it easy to meet folks across the company. In the spirit of the original People, new Stripes are front and center on Home along with their own quick video introductions, a flipbook through existing Stripes (can you get their name right?), and activities happening around the company (ranging from classes we host to events for our users).
Home was also designed to encourage Stripes to get to know each person beyond their team and the projects they're working on. We've found that building connections across the company makes it easier for us to share, learn from fresh perspectives and build a sense of belonging early on. Everyone has their own personal page that describes how to get ahold of them for work, where they work, and any quick background they'd like to share.
Home can't paint the complete picture of the person behind the page, but it helps break the ice. Outside Home, we encourage people to meet in person—one of our more structured approaches involves a chat bot that helps schedule lunches among Stripes who are least likely to know each other (more than 5,000 lunches have been facilitated since it was set up!).
Multiple teams, one company
We don't view teams as information silos or hard boundaries. Instead, we've designed teams to empower a group of individuals to take end-to-end ownership over an area and act autonomously toward their goals, while sharing lessons with the rest of Stripe. Helping teams share their knowledge to the company makes it easier for individuals at Stripe to find context that will both guide them in their work and help them learn above and beyond their role.
But with dozens of teams at Stripe, it's tough to keep track of every area. To help, we built the team index as a central place to find any team at Stripe. Home randomly features teams and the individuals within them at the top to help keep Stripes aware. Individual team pages are like the people pages: they provide a common interface for getting ahold of the team, finding useful resources the team has shared, and even watching video introductions for the entire group at once. (We now have ten offices globally and built similar pages for those at a recent hackathon.)
Knowledge sharing
Individual Stripes collaborate—a lot. Last year we created more than 20,000 documents, ranging from email drafts to project proposals to canonical documentation relied on across the entire company.
Our search system lets Stripe look across documents, people, teams, and even API models, with live filters to help narrow the corpus quickly. The search interface is completely API-driven with modular content indexers underneath, so it's easy to add new types of content to the same interface we use to find everything else. (API models were a recent addition.)
We still have a lot to do along these lines. Search satisfies the curious who know roughly what they're looking for. Next up, we'd like to incorporate our canonical documentation into a structure that not only helps people browse and keep up with changes, but also helps Stripes find information they wouldn't go hunting for on their own that would nevertheless benefit them (like lessons from another team's retrospective).
Under the hood, Home is built on the same technology as our user-facing products (such as the Dashboard) because we wanted to make it easy to move between developing user-facing and internally-facing products. This has made Home a favorite for new Stripes' spin-up projects and a popular go-to for Hackathon projects. The search feature described was built by a new class of Stripes as their very first project and office pages were built at our most recent hackathon.
Home is such an important part of how we work together and stay connected; it remains a work in progress along with Stripe as a whole. We're still figuring out how to balance transparency with information overload, serendipity with curated content, and crisp interfaces and team boundaries with the actual human part that makes the company what it is. Our next projects are all about evolving knowledge discovery: from team pages that weave the individuals, metrics, and our users together to a better way to browse and publish information.

This article originally appeared on Forbes.com.
Given the ubiquity of smartphones, you'd expect companies to be falling all over themselves to reach their customers on these devices. But they're not. As a result, many marketers are at risk of missing their mobile moment.
People are increasingly attached to their phones. According to a Bain & Company survey, people interact with their devices an average of 200 times per day. They use their phones for communication, information, entertainment and socializing. And, more and more, they're consulting their phones whenever they're in the market to buy a product or service.
Yet, while people consume 25% of their media on their phones, companies overall spend just 13% of their marketing budgets on mobile advertising. And much of that advertising isn't suited to the medium. Mobile consumers have extremely short attention spans; advertisers have about three seconds or less to grab their interest. But most of the video advertising that appears on mobile devices is repurposed from spots produced for television, meaning it's too long and too slow.
Why the disconnect? Companies tend to view mobile through the prism of digital media in general. Marketers are bringing into mobile the expectations, practices, rules and measurements they use in other forms of online advertising. But mobile, once seen as a subset of digital, should now be considered its own medium, one with enormous possibilities and new rules of engagement.
Some companies are allowing themselves to be misled by their own metrics. Conventional digital measurements typically attribute a buying action to the last place a consumer clicked. But that misses the increasingly nonlinear aspect of a customer's "journey"—one that may range across multiple platforms, including mobile. While 94% of smartphone owners use their devices to search for a store, for example, that activity is captured by conventional metrics only when a consumer actually uses her phone to buy something. A Bain analysis shows that for every $100 of revenue attributed to mobile display ads by conventional metrics, mobile influenced $90 of additional spending on other devices.
No metric, however precise, can quite capture the qualitative aspect of mobile, what marketers refer to as a "magic" of the medium. Companies have an opportunity to engage with customers on their phones in ways that just aren't possible with other media, even other digital media. Brands can create an intimate connection, reaching consumers at the precise instant when they are ready to shop—and to buy. Marketers like to call this narrow window, when a consumer is primed to make a decision, a micro-moment.
In an effort to capture more of these occasions, companies are conducting focused, scalable experiments in mobile marketing—with strong results. Red Lobster, for example, targeted mobile customers with advertising when those customers were near one of its restaurants during prime dinner hours, reaching potential guests at those micro-moments when they were most likely to stop in for a meal. In those markets where Red Lobster tested the mobile campaigns, mobile users who saw an ad for the restaurant on their devices were 31% more likely than those who didn't see an ad to visit a restaurant that day and 17% more likely to do so the next day.
Angie's Boomchickapop, a brand that features eight flavors of gluten-free, non-GMO bagged popcorn, developed a mobile-first strategy to reach its target shoppers—young, active females—during the micro-moments when they were mostly likely to want to munch. In six cities, Boomchickapop connected with consumers on their phones during weekends (prime days for popcorn consumption) when they were near a retail location. The company recorded a 23.4% lift in sales in the test markets and calculated a return on investment of $1.30 for every $1.00 is spent on the digital campaigns. Sales increased fastest in those cities where customers received a bigger share of advertising impressions on their phones.
Boomchickapop capitalized on the visceral power of mobile marketing. In its mobile-intensive digital campaign, the brand developed targeted creative materials, including a fast-moving, brightly colored video 15 seconds long, set to an up-tempo jingle.
Companies who are willing to look beyond their own conventional metrics, develop and test mobile-first campaigns, and embrace the magic of the medium have an opportunity to leap ahead of their competitors. Message to marketers: Now is the time to take the next step on your mobile journey. Your customers are already there—and they're waiting for you to make the most of your mobile moment.

Sid Abel
"We played hockey for money, but we would play the Toronto Maple Leafs for nothing." - Sid Abel
Go ahead. Name the third member of the "Production Line." Sure you can name Gordie Howe. Most of you could name Ted Lindsay too. Give up? The answer is Sid Abel.
While Howe and Lindsay brought a mixture of styles and aggression that would intimidate their opponents, Abel's creativity and savvy was the backbone of the line and of the Red Wings. But don't think he was soft. He could hit as hard or be as abrasive as his line mates.
The intimidating "Production Line" was without doubt one of the greatest combinations in hockey history. To illustrate just how good they were together, in 1949-50 they finished 1-2-3 in the scoring race. Lindsay had 78 points, Abel had 69 and Howe was third with 68.
It can be argued that Abel, not Howe, Sawchuk, Lindsay or Kelly, was the backbone of the great Red Wings team of the 1950's. Hockey historian Ed Fitkin was once quoted as saying "Sid will go down in the Red Wings' history as the greatest competitor and inspirational force the Red Wings ever had."
While with the Wings, Abel helped lead the team to the Prince of Wales trophy 5 times as the best team in the conference.
In 1942 Abel, affectionately nicknamed "Old Bootnose," was named to the Second Team All Star at left wing. In 1949 and 1950 he was named to the First Team All Star at center. Abel was the first player to attain All Star status at two positions.
Also in 1949 Abel won the Hart Trophy as league MVP. In 69 games he would lead the league in goals scored with 28.
Detroit won the Stanley Cup with Abel's leadership in 1943, 1950, and 1952. Abel delivered the 1943 championship before the arrival of Howe, Lindsay and Sawchuk.
In 1952-53 Abel was released from the Red Wings and signed on with the Chicago Black Hawks as a playing coach. He took over a pathetic team that finished dead last in five of the previous six seasons. Yet "Old Bootnose," with the help of 1954 Hart Trophy winning goalie Al Rollins, turned the Hawks around, and into the playoffs. They would go on to take the powerhouse Canadiens to seven games in the semi-final before finally bowing out.
Abel would return to Detroit as coach in 1958 and would become GM in 1963. He would remain with the Wings until 1971 when he would sign on to coach St. Louis. He would later become a long time hockey broadcaster.
Abel would rightfully be inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1969.

How to unlock a forgotten pattern on your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus
You were so sure that you memorized the diagram to unlock the screen and suddenly you realize that you have forgotten it and that access is denied.
In what follows, we'll show you what to do to unlock your smartphone if you forget the scheme.
But first, the easiest way is to use a dedicated app on another device to unlock your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus.
We recommend in particular Clear Mobile Password PIN Help and Unlock & Predict any Passcode - Magic Tricks App.
How to unlock Sony Xperia XA2 Plus
On some smartphones you have to enter a PIN code to unlock it, others have locking schemes.
In any case, there are several ways to unlock your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus, which we will introduce below:
Unlocking using your Google Account on Sony Xperia XA2 Plus
Since you have a Google Account, you can use your credentials to unlock the screen. This is possible if you have versioned 4.4 of Android or a lower version.
- Enter an incorrect code five times or draw an incorrect template five times.
- The "Forgotten PIN Code" or "Forgotten Scheme" option should now be displayed.
- There are now two possibilities: either you answer a question or you enter your Google data to unlock your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus.
- Once you have access again, you can change your PIN or schema. Click on "Settings", then "Lock Screen" and then "Unlock Screen". You can now choose from several options including "PIN Code" and "Model".
Unlock by reset
You can also reset your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus to the factory settings of your phone. Please note that in this case, all data will be deleted from your phone:
- Restart your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus in recovery mode.
- Simultaneously press the menu button, the button to maximize the volume of the device and the power button.
- An option to reset the device now appears. You can access the menu via the minus volume key.
- Then click on the start button.
- We recommend that you restart your smartphone after resetting.
Unlocking through Application Manager
You should be able to unlock the screen using the application manager on Sony Xperia XA2 Plus.
- Sign in to your Google Account on your computer.
- Once logged in, you can access the application manager.
- Your smartphone should now be recognized. Click on "Lock".
- You can now enter a new password that will replace the PIN entry.
- Then you can enter the password you set on your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus to access as usual.
A small recap on patterns on your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus
A lock screen is a user interface element used by many operating systems, as the one on your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus.
It regulates direct access to a device by requiring the user to perform some action, such as typing in a password, entering a specific key combination, or using the touch screen gesture recognition feature popular with mobile devices. Whereas most lockdown features on normal desktop computers only use a log-on screen, mobile-only lock-screens often provide greater functionality beyond just unlocking a smartphone or tablet, such as email, SMS, or text notifications, date and time indication or even shortcuts of certain applications. This should be the case on your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus.
The lock screen on your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus is not to be confused with the status bar or notification bar, which offers similar overview functions when opened, but can be seen unopened as part of the lock screen at the top.
We hope to have helped you unlock the forgotten scheme on your Sony Xperia XA2 Plus.
You can also consult our other articles:

Curate NYC
In December 2011, one of my photographs was selected for Curate NYC, "a juried exhibition and online platform that exists to heighten exposure and opportunities for New York City visual artists." Over 1,500 New York artists submitted work for this competition. The top 150 entries were selected by a panel of judges and exhibited at the Rush Arts Gallery in Manhattan. My entry was a photograph titled "A Kissproof World" (2009), which was from a series taken underneath the Coney Island boardwalk. It was exhibited at the Rush Arts Gallery from December 1st-10th, and was also selected for an online gallery by the Deep Tanks Studio in Staten Island.
