Illini Qualify for Big Ten Finals in Four Events
May 17, 2014
B1G Day 2 Results | Championships Central
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The Fighting Illini women's track and field team wrapped up day two of the Big Ten Outdoor Championships on Saturday. Illinois qualified for tomorrow's finals in four events, claiming six spots in the four running event finals. In addition, the Illini will be represented in three field event finals tomorrow.
Jesica Ejesieme, Kawanna Brooks and Mobolaji Adeokun competed in the 100m hurdles trials on Saturday, with all three qualifying for tomorrow's final. Ejesieme led the trio, clocking a time of 13.65, followed by Kawanna Brooks (13.75) in seventh. Adeokun grabbed the ninth and final qualifying spot with a time of 13.81. Ejesieme also advanced to tomorrow's final in the 400m hurdles. The senior finished second in her heat with a time of 59.06 to earn a shot at the conference title. Ahlivia Spencer qualified for the 800m final after finishing seventh in the trials with a time of 2:07.89. Chloe Schmidt finished 10th, once spot away from qualifying, with a time of 2:08.64. With the trials of the 4x100m relay cancelled, the Orange and Blue have automatically secured a spot in tomorrow's final.
"I think it's pretty significant that all of our 100m hurdlers advanced to the final," said head coach Ron Garner. "Kawanna Brooks ran a seasonal-best, so that was a race she's been working to have and it's nice to see it happen at the Big Ten Championships. Jesica Ejesieme had a good day in both events. She bumped one hurdle early on but she ran really well for a good finish. She's in a place to get a good result tomorrow. For Ahlivia Spencer, qualifying for the final is the first step towards defending her conference title. She knows what she needs to do to win and she knows her abilities. All of those races are potential places to score points."
Kristen Wilson just missed a scoring spot, placing ninth with a personal-best mark of 14.59m. The mark is the sixth-best in school history. Samone Thompson completed her second-ever heptathlon, placing ninth with 6,645 points. The sophomore finished just one place away from scoring team points, but set new personal-bests in two of Saturday's three events. Thompson improved her mark in the javelin by nearly 10 meters, throwing 24.44m to place 11th, and finished seventh in the long jump with a personal-best mark of 5.48m. Thompson also notched a fourth-place finish in the 800m, just missing her personal-best with a time of 2:25.56.
It was a big day for Kristen Wilson," said Garner. "She advanced to her first final and got a PR that moves her up to number six all time. It's a nice way to go out as a senior, to have her best performance in her last meet. Today we had a good development in Samone Thompson. It was only her second heptathlon and she improved several hundred points. She's a bright spot for the future and one of the hardest workers on the team. She's setting a good tone for what we hope to accomplish in future."
"Big things can happen tomorrow," added Garner. "Kandie Bloch-Jones is coming back to defend her indoor title and she's been practicing really well the last couple of weeks. For the first time in a long time, we have two discus throwers with the opportunity to advance to the finals and score points. Jennifer DeBellis was sixth in the pole vault last year, and although she's ranked further back this year she's had some really good practices lately. We have a chance to run in the 4x100m relay and 4x400m relay, and Alyssa Schneider and Amanda Fox will be back for the 5,000m. Those are all places to score points. Hopefully we can put a good one together tomorrow."
The third and final day of the Big Ten Outdoor Championships will begin at 9:00 a.m. CT tomorrow. Running event finals begin at 11:45 a.m. CT with the 4x100m relay, while finals for the high jump, pole vault and discus will take place throughout the day.

State Health Department workers visited multiple hospitals daily during the early weeks of the recent deadly fungal meningitis outbreak, picking up stacks of printed patient records to be entered into databases by hand.
But it was taking too long as the number of patients rapidly grew. So for the first time during an ongoing public health emergency, agency leaders decided they needed the hospitals to allow them to access the records from their computers.
Emails obtained by The Associated Press under the state's public records law indicated that less than three weeks after the Health Department alerted the public to the meningitis outbreak, most of the hospitals involved had created an electronic tunnel that allowed the state to quickly monitor treatments and patient conditions without physically visiting each facility.
"Once we were deep into the outbreak, that was a lifesaver in terms of dealing with the complexity of the information that we were trying to handle," state epidemiologist Dr. Tim Jones said.
"Because this was so urgent and because there was so much communication going back and forth, there was no way that we could send staff out every day to all these hospitals, going back and forth with piles of records."
The outbreak of fungal meningitis and other infections has been linked to epidural steroid injections created by a Massachusetts pharmacy and has killed 45 people and sickened nearly 700 across the country.
In Tennessee, where the very first cases emerged in late September, 147 people have gotten sick and 14 have died. The Health Department was following those cases as well as collecting detailed information on approximately 1,000 people all over the state considered at risk because they received injections from the recalled lots.
Tennessee hospitals are required to report patient information on certain kinds of diseases and infections to the Health Department, and a doctor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center was in immediate contact with the agency after discovering that a rare fungal meningitis infection had killed a patient who had recently gotten a steroid injection.
Although hospitals collect much data electronically and share it that way internally, they don't normally allow medical professionals outside the institution to tap into their data system. Federal law requires them to protect a patient's privacy.
Now, Health Department officials are considering pushing legislation that would allow the agency to make arrangements with hospitals to more quickly share patient records electronically in public health emergencies.

Defining Organic- Don't Be Fooled By Tricky Marketing
Have you ever picked up a food product that had a giant ORGANIC stamped on the front, only to turn it over and discover that the ingredient list is anything but? Navigating the sea of organic labeling can be so confusing that a lot of people abandon their efforts to eat organically, some even chalking up the whole organic movement to a scam.
The thing is, those people are on to something. I'm a huge advocate of eating organic and supporting organic farming, but if I didn't know what I do about labeling, I'd most likely be a skeptic, too. But real organic food IS out there! There are several things you need to know about how organic food is labeled, and the legal definition of words that are used on food products, in order to ensure that what you're buying is, indeed, organic.
Once you know the tricks of the trade, shopping for organic food is a breeze.
USDA Labeling
The most obvious way to tell if a food item is truly organic is to look for the USDA Organic label. Luckily the United States has a rigorous qualification system that regulates what can be labeled with the word "organic", and the USDA Organic label is what shows that the product is conforming to those strict regulations.
For one-ingredient items, like produce, the identifying sign may use the word "Organic", and each individual item can bear the USDA Organic seal, usually in the form of a sticker.
For items that contain more than one ingredient, like a box of cereal, there are three categories where the USDA allows for the word "organic" to be used in labeling.
1) 100% Organic: Foods with this label are made with 100% organic ingredients and may display the USDA seal. Salt and water are not included. These products may display the USDA Organic seal.
2) Organic: These products contain at least 95 – 99% organic ingredients (by weight). The remaining ingredients are not available organically but have been approved by the National Organics Program.
3) Made with Organic Ingredients: Food with this label must contain 70 – 94% organic ingredients. These products are not allowed to use the USDA Organic seal; instead, they may list up to three organic ingredients on the front of the packaging.
Any food item made with less than 70% organic ingredients can only use the word organic in their ingredients list. These products will not bear the USDA Organic seal.
It's All In The Wording
Since use of the USDA Organic seal is voluntary, you don't have to look far to find companies that try to trick consumers with misleading packaging.
1) Company Name: There are no rules regarding what words a company can use in their name, so it's important to watch out for companies using the word "Organic" or "Organics" in their name, which they display on their product in a way that misleads consumers into thinking that the product is organic when it is not. If you see the word "organic" on the front label and it's not obvious if it's a part of the name, do a quick check of the nutritional panel to see if the ingredients are organic. If not, it's simply a naming ploy.
2) Natural: The terms "natural" and "all natural" have absolutely no meaning in the United States from a legal standpoint, as the USDA has no rules when it comes to using "natural" on food packaging. Companies take advantage of this, hoping that unsuspecting consumers will think their product is organic and not look at the ingredients list.
What shopping for organics comes down to is looking for the USDA Organic seal, checking the ingredients list and shopping for your food at places that you trust. My favorite place to get organic food is at the Farmers Market, but I also love to shop at natural food grocery stores. Not only are they more likely to carry truly organic food items, the staff is usually quite knowledgeable about organics and can answer your questions and offer alternatives.
Also keep in mind that the USDA Organic certification process is an expensive one, and many farmers abide by the rules but simply can't afford to get certified. You can find these growers at Farmers Markets by their "No Pesticides, No Sprays" signs, or by asking, and once familiar with their names, you might start to notice them in your local stores.
With a little bit of effort and knowledge, you can find the organic food that you're looking for.read more

…well, not quite the strategy guide, but how about the actual design documents covering the game from beginning to end?
Courtesy of Duke fansite, Duke4.Net, who seem to have their teeth in the jugular of what has been going on with 3D Realms, they report that the lead designer for Duke Nukem Forever, Rick Huenink, has leaked design docs, previously unreleased screenshots, and even a world chart showing how everything in the game was going to be linked together. You can catch all of the links leading to the goodies here along with the original article.
I downloaded the batch of screens and…well, I'd definitely play it. In addition to the pic at the top the article, a few more choice shots follow below after the jump.
UPDATE: The original link to the article is dead per Duke4.net who have pulled the story due to a response that they were given by an ex-3DR employee who has told them that they "were not obtained with the [employees'] or the companies' permission and are slanderous to [employees] and the company.". As a result, we're doing the same thing as a professional courtesy to the original article, although putting the genie back in the bottle elsewhere is proving to be a little more difficult thanks to more than a few hardcore fans. Apologies to everyone.

Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) has today confirmed they will bid to host the Africa Cup of Nations.
FUFA Vice-President Mujib Kasule revealed this at a press conference, where the national soccer team Cranes got a shot in the arm from their fans ahead of the 2012 CECAFA Cup that kicks off in Kampala next week.
" People are saying it is impossible for Uganda to host AFCON but we will try. We are preparing a detailed proposal for the government to consider, " Mujib said.
Fans' group Uganda Cranes Initiative (UCI) launched a sh200m drive at the joint press conference to bolster the national soccer team's preparations.
The first intervention by the UCI will see the national team's accommodation upgraded, with the team set to be based at the upscale Rivonia Suites in Mbuya, closer to their training ground.
At a press conference at Rivonia Suites attended by Cranes coach Bobby Williamson, the initiative's chairman Robert Kabushenga revealed that Rivonia Suites has offered the accommodation at a discounted rate, as part of their contribution to the Cranes.
"We have made arrangements to move the players from Sky Hotel to Rivonia, which is closer to the training grounds and to Nambole, and also offers much more comfort and better amenities. The gym here is much better equipped, and in general the team will have world class facilities to keep them in the best psychological shape even as they work on their physical shape," Kabushenga told the press.
The sh200million will be used for, among other expenses, purchasing new playing kits for players, upgrading the accommodation of the team during training and games, and improved medical attention during the next one month.
"We all know that the Cranes have been given whatever support the official channels can provide now, so we are now calling on all supporters to top up and guarantee victory in CECAFA. There are millions of fans out there, and if all of them become supporters we can achieve this very easily. If 10,000 people contribute sh20,000 each we will hit this target within no time," Kabushenga said.
"We are also encouraging people to make contributions in kind and to make payments directly to suppliers. We have the FUFA technical team on board and they will keep the Initiative in contact with the suppliers so that if any supporter chooses to pay directly for playing kit or uniforms, they can do so and get the genuine article."
The interventions chosen by the Uganda Cranes Initiative (UCI) also include a total of 250 cartons of bottled drinking water for the team during training and games, which has been offered by Rwenzori Bottling Company.
The UCI also announced that the Uganda Cranes will this Saturday host a Fans' Day at the KCCA Grounds in Lugogo, along Jinja Road.
During the Fans' Day, the Uganda Cranes players will interact with fans and supporters of the team and their families.
"All Ugandans should come and meet their football representatives this Saturday. The team will be training but we will allow them to take breaks to interact with the fans, take photographs and spend time with their public face-to-face. After Saturday they will be in camp and we will not be able to allow any interruptions to training because we need to be focused on the CECAFA task ahead," said Williamson.
The UCI was launched two weeks ago by soccer fans impressed by Cranes showing against Zambia in the recent Nations Cup qualifiers. They seek to turn Cranes fans into supporters and to appeal for public support for the national team.
Kasule welcomed the interventions as timely and "high impact". He said: "The focus on direct benefits to the players is bound to pay off. UCI has decided to address even medical welfare, and will be seeking to get us high quality physiotherapists together with equipment and medicines or treatment that will support high on-pitch performance. We are quite happy with this progress."

Renowned human rights lawyer, Beatrice Mtetwa says while artists, especially musicians, make themselves available for State functions such as music galas they should do so only as part of their job and not to be labelled as part of any political party's ideology.
And if they do, she adds, they should make sure they get paid for their efforts and if by any chance, the political party they would have been clamouring for loses popularity they could also lose support from their fans.
Mtetwa was responding to questions from the floor at the "Peace Night" function organised by the Artists for Democracy in Zimbabwe Trust (ADZT) and Pamberi Trust at the Book Cafe in Harare last Friday.
At the function, Mtetwa also warned artists against being used by politicians for political ends saying doing so can prove fatal to their careers.
"You must not be abused and suppressed just because you need money. You must be able to perform at any political gathering be it MDC or ZANU-PF but in doing so it is important that you don't lower your standards and do things that are detrimental to the society just to get money because if you do so then your career will be wrecked and you will have no one to blame," she said, adding that the artists must continue advocating for the truth to powers that be.
"Artists must form groups and use them to advocate for peace your voices are loud and can reach out to everyone, art is not like any other profession that has rules written down in black and white it is flexible and can be done in a satirical way thus art can say anything," said Mtetwa.
"Peace should be a lifestyle for all of us. The kind of peace that artists should help build is one that will last long, unlike the peace we saw in DRC and in Mozambique which was fragile."
Many artists have fallen into the fray of politics at the height of their career and when the hype is over, they often find their careers plummeting. Some artists only make rare appearances at party functions and are never to be seen or heard of again.
On the other hand, some artists who have promoted the opposition parties have had their music denied airplay on the national broadcaster's airwaves or have faced the wrath of the Censorship Board.
Mtetwa also presented a paper entitled, "The Role of Artists in Peace Building."
In her presentation, Mtetwa challenged the artists to fight against repressive laws that inhibit their work and right to freely express themselves.
"Artists cannot be able to promote peace if they are inhibited from doing certain things or saying certain things therefore it is important that we start fighting for a conducive environment that will allow us to work for peace," said Mtetwa.
"Journalists have done so and that is why they are able to write critical analysis and news. I want to urge you as artists to also do that. I am here to assist you as a lawyer in creating this space but I need clients to help test some of these lawyers. I am glad that one of the artists here, Tafadzwa Muzondo is doing so with the Censorship Board. Can you imagine what will happen if all of us join Tafadzwa?" She said.
Muzondo, a poet and stage actor had his work banned by the Censorship Board for being "politically sensitive". He is fighting through the courts to have his work unbanned.
Mtetwa encouraged ADZT to work with artists based in rural areas saying these are locations that needed more peace building than the towns and cities. Saluting a poet from Gutu, Abel Mauchi, who recited a poem against human struggles and challenges at the function, Mtetwa said:
"I salute Mauchi. He is one of those critical voices that we need in our communities to build lasting peace. I encourage ADZT to continue working with such artists because they are the torch bearers of peace in our communities."
In addition, Mtetwa said ADZT should be applauded for giving artists a platform to air their views but bemoaned that fact that while art is such a powerful voice for peace it is yet to be given its rightful place in Zimbabwe.
Speaking at the same function, the ADZT executive director, Stanley Kwenda, said artists have a very important role to play in building peace in the country.
"Artists occupy critical space in our society. They are the conscience of the society and its therefore important that they use their unique talents to help build lasting peace in the country," he said.
"It is no secret that our country witnessed internecine violence that saw many deaths and displacements during the 2008 election therefore it is important for artists to add onto the existing voices of reason and call for peace. While our politicians have been on record calling for peace, it is not in the word but in the deed."
ADZT was formed in 2007 to foster democratic participation for artists in Zimbabwe. It does this through the use of various artistic genres such as theatre, music, poetry, dance, visual arts and various other forms of art. More than 500 artists based in both urban and rural areas of Zimbabwe have signed up with the organisation, so far.
"Currently, we are running the Zimbabwe Peace Caravan whose main goal is to help place art at the centre of building lasting peace in Zimbabwe," said Kwenda
"The Zimbabwe Peace Caravan is a nine month project aimed at building peace ahead of the constitutional referendum and elections. We believe artists are a powerful tool for fostering unity, peace and reconciliation. They can be trusted more than politicians who say things to win elections rather than change people's attitudes and build peace in the country," he added.

Floral Chain Over the Knees
Also found in:
♠ Tabbisocks ♠ Victoriana ♠ Over The Knee ♠ Artistic
Victorian-style floral motifs run front and back from the tops to the toes of these boldly colored socks. We love how the design extends far enough to look lovely even with the shallowest shoes!
Labels say US sock size 9-11, but they seem like the usual "one size" of women's socks and should fit shoe sizes 6-10 well.
About 19 inches stretch in cuff and body of sock. About 21 inches from heel to top of cuff, unstretched.
Formed heel.
Additional Info: We found these to appear slightly sheer in some lighting, as shown in the image of the sides of the black pair, you can see our model's tattoo right through the sock! We didn't do anything to darken any of these images so you can see what we saw and judge for yourself if you want to buy these. Tabbisocks logo on the sole of the foot.
Made in Japan.
Fiber Content: 50% cotton, 20% acrylic, 18% polyester, 10% nylon, 2% spandex
Machine wash warm, tumble dry low.
Label: Tabbisocks
the color of the "blue" appears on my screen as a teal….is it like a true blue turquoise or more of a green-blue? thank you!
Love the socks, but I must ask, who makes those boots?
Can I ask what kind of boots those are? They're fantastic.
I am VERY interested in purchasing a pair of Floral Chain Over The Knee in Black. Will you please notify my email immediately when they are back in stock? Why is there no website button for this option? Please remedy that as soon as possible. Thank you.
It says it's made for US shoe sizes 9-11 but that it should fit all. I am a size 6 with such tiny little feet, will they fit comfortably or with the foot part be much too large?
I know this is like a commercial, but the site is so easy to browse for generally what you want, I just keep finding gifts for my friends and family!

Great light
By @CYclingNolte
from Iowa
About Me Avid Cyclist
Great light. It has about 5 blinking patterns and you can change the speed of the flashes so there are a lot of options as far as blink pattern goes. Its very bright and will last sevel long rides and even more if you change the pattern and speed. I have 3 of these lights so I can rotate them between bikes and I've used 1 for over a year before needing to charge it. It uses a regular micro usb so you can charge it almost anywhere if you need to. Also seems to be waterproof. It's easy to remove from the clamp but is secure when mounted. It does stick out a little from the mount (not directly next to the seat post) if that is a concern but it doesn't bother me.

They haven't hit me yet...

About Me Commuter
Cars report seeing me from > 1 mile away on clear winter days. Love that you can adjust the frequency within a selected blink pattern. Charges quickly, discharges slowly, so I run it M-F, and recharge on weekend. Mounting options for seat post or seatstays, as well as the normal clip for your bag. I would compare it favorably to my Portland Design Works tail lamp, except its a bit lighter and requires charge more often. Sometimes I will run both lamps if I'm commuting in high traffic, and haven't been hit... yet...
Bright and have seen on other bikes.
By Murphdog
from Portland, OR
I bought this for safety reasons since I hate being in the dark riding between friends with lights when the ride goes longer than expected. I wanted to be able to have a light that I can move from my road bike to my tri-bike seat bags whenever I want. Has many variable light settings and have seen it on many other cyclists bikes too. Purchased this light for the bike and Nashbar light for the helmet at the same time. I will zip tie this light to the bike to keep it from being pilfered when we stop for coffee.

finally a rechargable taillight!
By Helen S
from Pittsburgh PA
It is currently monted sideways on my rack- but no big deal. I can also use my plug in charger from my headlight. I hate replacing batteries!
Unbelievably bright!
By DaveM
from Central, CT
This is a VERY bright light. Hard to be missed which is the exact purpose. I like how the blink rate is easily adjustable and that this is rechargeable.
Its nice and bright.
By Black7
from Elberfeld, IN
Its bright. In the end, thats what matters. I like Cygolite products alot. They are always very high quality. I use both their head and taillights. If there is one caveat, its that for max brightness, its pretty picky about the angle its mounted at. Because of this, I have only found it useful when used with the seatpost bracket. If I put it on my clothes or on my seatbag, it does not sit right and thus is much less bright. Thats not a problem, but that makes it less versatile because it only comes with one bracket. Not a perfect scenario when I have 5 bikes.Still worth it though!
Good product
By Trekking Down the Road
from Saint Louis, MO
I ride on several mornings per week in the dark and wanted a good taillight. This light has performed very well until recently. The rubber switch component appears to have failed which may inhibit turning on the light. That being said, the USB functionality is very nice. I had a neighbor who drove up behind me tell me that he could easily see the light from over 1/2 mile away. He was very impressed and called me to tell me.

Bright enough for daylight use!
By Flying Fortress
from Santa Fe,NM
Short and skinny:I bought this because it IS bright enough to get the attention of motorists from a LONG way off, even in daylight. (What with all the idiots who are driving in big hulkin' SUV's WHILE talking on their cell phones, you NEED something like this! They could run you over in one of those things, and not EVEN know they hit you!). 5 modes, I find the default factory flash frequencies work fine, but you can increase or decrease the speed of them if you want with the right sided button. Holds a charge for a long time, and when its time to charge it, you just plug it into the USB port of your laptop. It's done in 3 hours. How cool is that? This one, or the Planet Bike one, are the 'go-to' tail lights for city commuters. The little port for the USB cable has what looks like a pretty water tight rubber flap over it, but I haven't challenged how water tight that seal is yet. And that port is on the BOTTOM of the light. One reviewer complained of water leakage, so there's still room for improvement. A "4" rating therefore, seems most appropriate. Highly recommended.

Disposing a bail application filed by Tehelka founder Tarun Tejpal, arrested on the charge of sexually assaulting a junior colleague, a Goa sessions court has rejected the defence argument that the alleged act was consensual and not criminal since the victim was a "liberated, emancipated modern woman".
In a 21-page order on January 15, sessions court judge Anuja Prabhudesai said the "victim's statement is genuine".
"The persona of the victim and her social strata are not relevant to decide the (bail application). Similarly, the fact that she is liberated, emancipated modern woman who demanded (a) written apology rather than suffering in silence are no grounds to believe that she was not traumatised or that the act was consensual or could be consensual. Even on merit, the character of the victim or the past conduct… or the alleged aftermath on the stormy evening would not be relevant for deciding the issue of consent," the order stated.
The court examined CCTV footage, the emails and SMS messages between the victim and Tejpal, the statement of the victim, her boyfriend, journalists, and Tehelka colleagues in whom the victim confided immediately after the alleged incident.
The bail hearing was conducted in-camera partially.
According to the written order, senior counsel Amit Desai, representing Tejpal, argued that the "social background of the victim, her persona, sense of understanding and values are relevant factors in deciding the (bail) application".
Stating that ingredients of IPC section 376 (rape) is not made out, the defence relied on Supreme Court observations in two cases where "the apex court has drawn distinction between the tradition-bound Indian woman and a woman from the western society".
The order cites Desai's arguments that the "victim is an educated emancipated woman who wanted the apology to be published on the letterhead of Tehelka . She cannot be compared to a girl from tradition-bound non-permissive society of India who would be extremely reluctant to make such revelation in fear of being shunned by the family or the society".
Placing "this background" to allege "material discrepancy in the victim's statement vis-a-vis CCTV footage, delay in lodging the complaint as well as subsequent conduct of the victim, more particularly her conversation with her friends", the defence cited "suspicion about the genuineness of the allegations".
Countering this argument, senior counsel and special prosecutor S D Lotlikar told the court that "societal strata and moral status of the victim are irrelevant, as the law does not give licence to any person to sexually abuse women even if they have liberal views on sex".
The prosecution said material evidence indicated that Tejpal had not disputed the allegations levelled by the victim. Lotlikar said the victim stood by the allegation and had never said that the act was consensual.
The court noted in the order: "It is not possible at this stage either to examine the material meticulously and to look into the discrepancies, omissions, or contradictions, …continued »

With the start of the new school year, Operation Student Safety will see law and traffic enforcement officers province-wide focusing on traffic safety in and around school zones on Sept. 4 and 5.
Officers will be on the lookout for motorists speeding in school zones, failing to stop at stop signs or yield signs, failing to yield for pedestrians, failing to obey crossing guards, failing to obey school bus signs or parking in no parking zones.
"School zones often see heavy traffic, and the start of the new school year is a good time to remind motorists to slow down and be attentive to students and pedestrians," said Andrew Cartmell, President and CEO of SGI. "Young children are more difficult to see than adults, and tend to think vehicles can stop quickly, so it's important for motorists to pay extra attention in those areas."
On average, there are 40 collisions in school zones each year, resulting in 14 injuries and two fatalities. In 2011, there were 37 collisions resulting in 17 injuries and no fatalities.
"We are dedicated to the safety and well being of children in our communities, and as motorists, you have a responsibility to drive with care," said Chief Troy Hagen, President of the Saskatchewan Association of Chiefs of Police. "Drive in school zones as if it's your school, attended by your children, and slow down."
Penalties for speeding in school zones include a fine of at least $140 and three demerit points under SGI's Safe Driver Recognition program.
Last month's traffic safety blitz, Operation Crossroads, focused on intersection safety and resulted in 516 tickets being issued to Saskatchewan motorists, including 216 for improper or non-seatbelt use, 51 for cellphone use while driving, 38 for disobeying red lights or stop signs and nearly 90 for speeding.

What a scandal! Oh, what a scandal it is! Our present government, in its mean-minded and penny-pinching and myopic fashion, is not only bringing British science to a halt, but is also letting worthy citizens die because it refuses to buy them the medicines or hi-tech 'care' they need if the price tag is too high. At least, that's the impression I've received from a conscientious attention to the 'media' over the past few weeks.
I am in no position to judge the virtues of the arguments of the champions of Big Science and Little Science, whose almost daily contributions to the correspondence columns of the 'quality' broadsheets forecast doom for the nation unless they get lots and lots of money (indeed, as much as they want to spend) so that they can bring their genius to fruition.
But while I can't estimate the virtue of the claims made by ...

Mars 'a little bit tasty' by AMV BBDO
As British Summertime gets into full swing (sort of), AMV BBDO launches a new print campaign to promote Mars and Snickers ice cream.
The Mars and Snickers ice cream vans get the 'pimp-my-ride' treatment in this latest work, complete with hot girls and sleek exteriors.
The Mars ice cream van is transformed to reflect the smooth dark texture of the chocolate ice cream.
The van represents a huge Jaguar, with a beautiful girl leaning out of the hatch to serve a queue of waiting men.
The Snickers ice cream van, borrowing from the earlier ad series, starring 80s personality Mr T, takes the form of a giant tank. Again a beautiful girl mans the tank as a neverending line of men wait to be served.

Laminate and hardwood flooring are beautiful, durable choices for a wide range of commercial and residential applications. While laminate and hardwood are different materials, both surfaces need a consistent sweeping or vacuuming routine, advanced floor-care planning to prevent problems, and careful use of floor cleaning products.
Here are some floor-care tips to keep your laminate or hardwood surfaces in tip-top shape.
Basic Care
Since both floor surfaces are smooth, basic laminate and hardwood floor care starts with regular sweeping to remove dirt and gritty debris. Laminate flooring is protected with a thick external resin coat, so vacuum cleaners can also be used on the surface without fear of the beater bar harming the finish. When using a vacuum cleaner on hardwood floors, consider using soft-bristle brush attachments for open spaces or crevasse attachments for cleaning corner areas.
Preventive Maintenance
You can preserve the beauty of laminate and hardwood floors by following some simple tips, which include:
- Using mats. When laminate or hardwood floors are right inside an exterior entrance door, walk-off mats can help trap dirt, minimize moisture and prevent tracking.
- Using glides. To help maximize hardwood floor care, the National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA) recommends placing soft plastic or fabric-faced glides under chair, table and other furniture legs to avoid scuffs and scratches.
- Placing area rugs. To help preserve laminate flooring from spills or water damage, consider placing area rugs in front of sinks or water fountains.
- Wiping up spills. On both laminate and hardwood floors, immediately wipe up spills. Avoid wet mopping as a floor-care technique for both surfaces.
- Taking caution with heavy objects. Just like other flooring surfaces, laminate or hardwood floors can be damaged by sliding heavy appliances or furnishings directly over the surfaces. To avoid this problem, cover laminate or hardwood floors with heavy cardboard or plywood before moving heavy items.
- Watching the heels. As a general rule, laminate flooring can handle potential dents and dings better than hardwood floors. However, neither surface is impervious to damage from repeat abuse by athletic cleats or high heels. In fact, the NWFA notes that a 125-lb. woman wearing high heels can apply up to 2,000 lbs. of pressure per square inch on flooring surfaces.
- Trimming pet nails. Remember, dogs and other pets with long, sharp nails can leave scratch and scuff marks on both hardwood and laminate surfaces. So, it's a good idea to regularly trim pet nails in order to extend the life of your floors.
Advanced Care
Basic laminate flooring repairs:
- According to the North American Laminate Flooring Association (NALFA), small chips or holes in laminate flooring can be filled and fixed with finishing putty. Just use a sharp chisel or knife to clean up the damaged edges, surround the outside area with tape, and use a plastic spatula to work color-matched putty into the problem area. Remove the tape and allow the putty to dry. Larger areas of damage to laminate flooring will most likely require replacing the affected section.
Basic hardwood floor repairs:
- Depending on size, small chips or holes in a hardwood floor may require removing any surface wax before filling the hole with putty. Unlike laminate, larger areas of damage to hardwood floors can often be sanded and refinished in place.
- While NALFA says laminate floor care does not require waxes or special cleaners, bear in mind that such products are available from many leading floor product manufacturers. For hardwood floor care, the NWFA suggests consulting with a flooring professional to choose the right cleaning product. Sheet vinyl or tile floor-care products should not be used on either wood or laminate flooring.

1877 PR 64 Cameo Three-Dollar Gold, Another Unsung Rarity1877 PR 64 Cameo NGC. Much underrated in comparison to its two famous proof-only predecessors, the 1877 is an issue of just 1,468 business strikes and a mere 20 proofs. True proofs of this date can be distinguished from deceptive, prooflike early strikings by a rust spot on Liberty's lower curls and, again, by the date being placed lower on the reverse. The number of auction appearances for 1877 proof threes is rendered useless by the confusion between the two. In actuality, the number of proofs extant is likely between 12-14 pieces. This choice specimen is notable for its originality and displays the slight halo effect as seen on the 1874 proof above. Both sides are lightly patinated, with delicate steel-blue hues clinging to the portrait and interior lettering on the reverse. (NGC ID# 28AK, PCGS# 8041)

stc sa807ce
Re: stc sa807ce
This STC is held by Robert and Barbara Williams, and I believe it's the Avcon STC. Good luck getting a copy of the paperwork; you'll need it.
STC Number: SA807CE
This certificate issued to: Williams Robert or Barbara
STC Holder's Address:
213 N. Clark Phone: 620-782-3317
Udall KS 67146
United States
Description of the Type Design Change:
Installation of Lycoming 180 hp engine and constant speed propeller. (172P LANDPLANES)
Re: stc sa807ce
aren't engine/serial/tail numbers on the STC along with "Do not copy"
I'm not so sure that a copy of someone elses STC will do you much good if you ever really NEED to produce your STC paperwork..
I'm sure you can get a copy if the company is still in business for a "nominal" fee. If your origonal is lost and a "legit" duplicate cannot be obtained a copy of a like STC along with your logbook documentation and the mechanics logs should pretty much satisfy anyone...
Good luck :-)
Re: stc sa807ce
Have you tried getting your airworthiness and registration file from the FAA? For a nominal fee they will send you a CD with the complete records that they have for your "N" number. You can order it at www.faa.gov. Look for aircraft registration information. Good Luck.
Re: stc sa807ce
I also need the paperwork for this STC. Doing a annual on a basket case 172 with this STC installed. Called out to Ks, They didn't answer or return my call. Wrote them, as of today, have heard back.
By registered the STC holder by Aircraft Serial Number, Registered owner. This just makes sure the STC holder get paid, before you could just get a copy of the STC (FAA approved Data) and do the installation your self. I have no problem protecting the holder of the STC, but this is a legal matter not a FAA matter. This just makes for more bureaucrat.
I do feel that in these cases the FAA should be made to suppy the date.
Re: stc sa807ce
I need the help of a generous 172 180hp c/s stc owner. I am currently instructing from a stc sa807ce complied 172. The prolem is we cannot locate the performance data of the stc. I am looking for everything concerning airspeeds, power settings, fuel burn and anything else that may be available through the stc regarding performance. Your help is much appreciated.
Re: stc sa807ce
I have attempted contact with the Williams without success over a three month period. I finaly started calling the FAA office that has oversight for this STC holding and was able (10 APR 09) to receive a PDF file for my aircraft and this STC from Jeff Janez, after repeated phone calls and messages clearly explaining my fialed attempts at contacting the Williams. I do no know if it helped or if it was coincience, but Jeff Janez finally returned my call after leaving a message asking wheather or not the Williams had effectively abandoned their STC by not responding to requests, and it this abandonment did not therefore place the STC in public domain? Any how the STC is in my records now, the caveat is that the associated drawings referenced are the sole property of the STC holder and can only be released through him.
Re: stc sa807ce
I spoke to the STC owner Williams and he told me that there was no modification to the POH. You are to use the original book for take off distances, stall speed, weight and balance etc etc. Apparently Back in the day, when this STC was done, the FAA only required a change to the POH if any of the figures became worse. I have found an old 177 book with the 180hp constant speed engine to be a good thumb reference.
If you document Manifold pressure and airspeeds I would be very interested. I will setup a page with the data.
He told me that he was thinking about doing an STC for increased weight if there was enough interest. So if enough people call and offer money it may become worth his time.

Re: stc sa807ce
To Avcon and 180hp w/ c/s prop convertions
A place to start is at Del Air in Porterville, CA. Contact at 559-784-9440, Talk to Herry Delicke, he has a h/p increase STC and a gross weight increase for some modles. Sold the kits when still Avcon, befor the Williams got into it.
Re: stc sa807ce
RE: stcsa807ce
I have a 172n conversion using stcsa807ce. AVcon does have a gross load increase however Mr. Williams has been unresponsive to my requests and calls. Perhaps there is some way to make the STC public information after attempts by the "customers" to obtain necessary documentation is thwarted.
Re: stc sa807ce
I obtained a copy of the cover page for the STC for my 1964E, and I have a table that shows percent power by rpm and MP. that's about it. I tried last year to get ahold of Mr. Williams to see about drawings for my conversion (which has been on the place since the mid 70's according to my logs). So far no luck. anyone had any luck finding copies of drawings etc?

pizza schools?
Can anybody help me to decide if I should go to naples to learn how to make the best pizza or I should I go to LA and take the classes? Thanks
Re: pizza schools?
If it was my choice...I would choice Naples....such a beautiful country!!!
Re: pizza schools?
While Naples has its charms, what you learn may not translate very well to Arizona. Going to Naples is, methinks, more likely to raise your ambitions than to raise your pizza because the flours, yeasts, humidity and other variables are rather different. You might well learn as much by becoming friends with Chris Bianco in Phoenix.
I have learned a great deal from a pizza maker who went to Italy but spent several weeks with Chris. (To be candid I think his pizzas are at least as good as Chris's).
Where would you go in LA? Up north in San Francisco is Gemignani's International School of Pizza (which I have been told is very good).
For a vacation I would definitely choose Naples. To maximize learning seems not so certain.
Good Luck!

Just an update, this latest version 4.1.3, as highlighted by the very first line in the release notes, does make UMS work with the XBox One now.
The thing I could not help but notice right away though is it does not appear that the true DTS audio stream is making it through, that the One is doing its own thing with the audio.
What I mean by this is my receivers display changes displaying the audio source accordingly.
When I use UMS on my PS3, and a file supports or includes it, the DTS comes through untouched and my receiver actually changes to read DTS.
When I check out a movie on my One that I know supports DTS as my PS3 is confirming it, my receiver does not change and just stays on the audio setting the one was already outputting.
So while it is no doubt nice to have another option with the XBox One, as 85% of the reason I am keeping my PS3 hooked up is for UMS and the DTS audio it is capable of streaming, I will be sticking to using the PS3 for the foreseeable future.
Perhaps I need to change some settings on my XBox One itself, I am not dismissing this, however I had to change a decent amount of settings on it just to output the best audio possible, so I am very hesitant to change any of those settings just for DTS via UMS.

Cognitive radio (CR) technology is envisioned to solve the scarcity and inefficient use of wireless spectrum by dynamically and opportunistically accessing the available spectrum without causing a significant interference to the primary users (PU). In this paper, we propose a solution to the problem on how cognitive radios can initially find each other under the dynamically changing available spectrum. The easiest and common practice to tackle this problem is to dedicate a control channel on which the nodes can rendezvous with each other. However, a dedicated common control channel has severe drawbacks and is not good choice for CR networks. In this paper, we propose Deterministic Approach to Rendezvous Channel Setup (DARC) scheme in which one of the free channels is chosen as a rendezvous channel by a central entity. Simulation results show that our proposed scheme has significantly lower time to rendezvous and gives better protection to the PU than previously proposed schemes.

Tunis — "The decision of caretaker Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali to form a government of national skills will certainly help Tunisia recover from the present crisis," estimates the Tunisian Industry, Trade and Handicrafts Union (UTICA).
In a note sent Monday to the interim PM, the employers' organisation had warned against the negative repercussions of the political vacuum and violence on the economic and general situation of Tunisia as well as on the country's image abroad.
UTICA, which has been consulted by Hamadi Jebali, on the formation of a government of national experts, had also stressed in its note, "the legitimacy of the Tunisian elected institutions."
In a statement published, Tuesday, UTICA underlined the need to establish an action plan concerning the next political events, emphasising the stake to complete, in the shortest terms, the drafting of the new constitution.
UTICA calls to fix the date and organise the next elections, as soon as possible, which will help clarify the vision for all the political and economic actors."
It proposes to organise a national debate on "the economic situation," with the participation of all the political, economic and social parties as well as the components of the civil society.
The aim being to elaborate an urgent working programme aimed to safeguard the national economy.
The Employers' organisation calls to strive to regain the trust of the Tunisian investors abroad and think on the possibility to organise an enlarged media campaign aimed to support Tunisia's image abroad as a tourist and investment destination.

LULAC scholarship banquet recognizes Latino academic achievement
Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe congratulated 40 Latino and Hispanic scholarship recipients during the League of United Latin American Citizens' annual scholarship banquet held Wednesday, Sept. 25, at the Governor's Mansion.
The students are attending higher education institutions around the state, including UALR, which had a record number of 19 Latino/Hispanic students enrolled this academic year, according to LULAC State Director Dr. Trevino-Richard.
Trevino-Richard, a professor in the UALR Department of Sociology and Anthropology, has been active in the organization for more than 20 years.
He and LULAC President Michel Liederman greeted each scholarship recipient with certificates and encouraged each to share how the stipend will further his or her education.
LULAC's UALR Council co-hosted the event with LULAC Council 750. Organizers say more than $500,000 has been given to more than 400 Arkansas students since its establishment in 1975.
The annual event helps raise funds for future scholarships and encourages membership in the LULAC organization, which has made education for Latinos its top priority since its 1929 founding.
Following Beebe's keynote address, LULAC's Regional Director Baldomero Garza, delivered a motivational talk to the scholarship recipients, telling them not to settle and to "dream big, dream far, dream wide."
Several community leaders also received awards for their efforts on behalf of the Latino community, including UALR's Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Dr. Zulma Toro-Ramos and Dean of Students Darryl McGee.
As the largest advocacy group in the U.S., LULAC offers scholarships for Latino students at the high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels through its National Educational Service Centers.

There is no way you can miss this sofa design by Lila Lang. One half is a plain looking sofa with a decidedly curvy old fashioned style. The other half appears to be climbing the wall! You have to admit there is something whimsical about this design. On one hand it fulfills a function – somewhere to sit on. On the other hand, it is a perhaps a piece of art or even a statement about things driving us up the wall perhaps? If you tilt your head and view the wall as the floor, you will notice the Canape is almost symmetrical designed so it should fit corner walls in either direction. This design was recently featured in an exhibition Parcours Saint Germaine in Paris France. – Via

In Frankenstein, why is Victor seen as a reliable narrator (or not)?
1 Answer | Add Yours
In the novel "Frankenstein" every narrator is speaking through a first person perspective, so that we as readers can relate to their inner and outer conflicts, issues, and situations. It would be very hard for any narrator speaking from their own perspective to serve as a reliable narrator, particularly when the situation that they are narrating has affected them personally, or has caused turmoil in their lives. Just imagine: Could Victor EVER be able to be objective in his life again telling this story after the can of worms he had just opened? Could he be fair to anyone connected to the story when he has been the main agent provocateur in this particular plot? Nobody, not even the creature as the narrator, could fairly be seen as reliable because each of these characters has a deep conflict to resolve and the problem was caused by a chain of events that, unfortunately, bound them to one another.

About POGO's Federal Contractor Misconduct Database (FCMD)
The government awards contracts to companies with histories of misconduct such as contract fraud and environmental, ethics, and labor violations. In the absence of a centralized federal database listing instances of misconduct, the Project On Government Oversight (POGO) is providing such data. We believe that it will lead to improved contracting decisions and public access to information about how the government spends hundreds of billions of taxpayer money each year on goods and services.

On scathing reviews
Here's what I'm finding. The people on Kindle boards who are hyper promoting their books and touting their talents are getting hit the hardest with 1 and 2 star reviews. Usually, the complaints are that the writing is amateurish -- which I agree with most every time I see that charge leveled, clunky phrasing, the wrong words used, unclear thoughts, spelling and typos, that sort of thing. I don't begrudge the reviewers those comments, because I'd give the same ones.
There's another kind of bad review that's just a foolish mistake like the dope who reviewed Barbara Elsborg's Chosen and gave it a low mark because she didn't see how the book could be considered a romance. She's right that it couldn't be considered a romance, and that's because it's a suspense thriller. Not much you can do about that kind of review.
I'm not worried about those two types of reviews. If my prose is bad, I deserve a bad review. If someone makes the mistake of not reading the blurb and orders the book without knowing what it's about, on some level I'll actually be flattered because I figure they trust my writing enough to buy without thinking about it.Though, secretly, I'd want to slap them silly.
The other types of bad reviews are tougher because they are more likely to pop up on my stuff. There are readers out there who know science, the military, women, and a whole host of other things far better than I do. I'm doing my best to be true to what I've learned, but I don't have any experts handy who can discuss time travel, faster than the speed of light travel, alien anatomy, etc...Some writers of science fiction are getting hammered over minutia. You know, "This author says that light would be bent around the black hole at the center of Andromeda by 3%, but everyone knows that it's 4.2%. He doesn't know what he's talking about." Hmm. Okay, I guess it's a legitimate complaint (and, no, I don't even know if there is a black hole at the heart of Andromeda), but if a book is spoiled by something that minor, then I'm not sure that reader will be pleased by anything other than technical books. I'll do my best, but I reserve the right to be wrong. And I'm not joining the military just to get the verbiage down. (I'm giving it to my cousin to help me with that, she's a colonel)
Another type of bad review is the unappealing plot. Hard to take, but there's no recourse other than to try to do better next time.
The last type of bad review I saw was probably the most confusing. "The book was exactly what they said it would be, but I didn't like it." I had to shake my head. This, paraphrased, appeared on one star reviews for books like Day of the Jackal, Casino Royale, and The Foundation Trilogy. I read the blurbs on those books, they're not deceptive. Nobody tricked the reader into buying a book by promising that the Day of the Jackal is a deep love story. Yet some dope gave it a single star and complained that it was nothing but one man's obsessive quest to track down a clever would-be assassin. The reviewer said, "That's all it is. I don't see how anyone can like that kind of stuff." Of course, that's exactly what the blurb said it was. I'm shaking my head thinking, why the hell would this guy buy a book that's about something he knows he doesn't like?
Oh well. I'll deal the reviews when it's time, I suppose. Hopefully they make me a better writer.
1 comment:
Thanks, Fred! Oh the reviews. It's a double-edged sword all right. We want them, we crave them but they are just one person's opinion and often that person can't even spell. I've generally had reviews that I've been pleased with but I get the odd one that makes me scratch my head and wonder WTF? When one reviewer finds the plot extraordinary and another says it's the same old thing - I realize reading the reviews just depresses me.ReplyDelete
Luckily, I don't have much I need to research in my books except the -er - sex. Sorry husband - but I'm talking about unusual sex. In fact I had a picture up on the screen of a male piercing - I'd googled - most painful male piercing and husband caught a glimpse and almost passed out. Darn it, see how easily I'm distracted!

(No Model.)
Patented Aug. 7, 1894.
Java e507? 1, 660%)?! W ,dzimz d.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 524,219, dated August 7, 1894.
Application filed December 18, 1893. Serial No. 493,907. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THEODORE F. W. SCHMIDT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Wrappers, of whichthe following is a specification.
y invention relates to elastic wrappers for glass bottles or jars to prevent breakage in packing and transportation, and has for its object to adapt -such wrappers to snugly fit the necks of the bottles and afford increased protection at this point.
To this end my invention consists in a wrapper constructed in the manner hereinafter fully described and definitely pointed out in the claims following the description, due reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, wherein- Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved Fig. 2 is a plan View of the blank from which the wrapper is made; Fig. 3 an end view of the same; and Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the wrapper encircling binder.
Referring to the drawings the letter A indicates a blank which is cut from straw-board of the desired dimensions and provided with a series of scored lines a, a, and a series of straight or curved slits c are cut across the creases a, preferably in a downward direction; that is to say, the slits are cut in such manner as to extend downwardly when the blank is crimped,'beingof an inverted V-shape in the completed blank; or a series of slots or notches preferably diamond or oval-shaped, like either of those marked 0 are cut across the creases a the width of the shoulder of the bottle above the first series; these allow the wrapper to be drawn in on the shoulder of the bottle and then out and upward around the neck thereof, as shown in Fig. 1,when the wrapper conforms to the shape of the bottle, and is held in contact with the neck thereof by one or more binder hoops E.
It is obvious that when the neck of the bottle is formed by a gradual taper from the body to the mouth, or when a close fit is not required, only one series of these slits is necessary.
To form the wrapper the blankAis scored and cut as above described and is then formed into W-shaped crimps, as shown in Fig. 3.
The laps b, b, are secured together by glue, thus forming a cylinder provided with a contracted orreduced portion at one end, the 1nner periphery of which is composed of the continuous series of the inner edges of the crimps, and the outer periphery is fOI'IIIGd IH like manner of the outer edges of the series of crimps. After the wrapper has been placed upon the bottle a hoop or binder 0, shown in Fig. 4, is slipped thereon and presses on the outer edges or projections of the crimped wrapper and draws the inner edges of the crimps firmly against the bottle lncased therein. I
An important advantage is obtained by the two series of slots or slits in the blank, causing the wrapper to be contracted to closely 7o abut against the shoulder and neck of the bottle; the corrugations being thicker around the neck make the wrapper very strong, because the entire series of crimps is preserved intact in their abutment around the bottle.
I prefer to make these wrappers from strawboard, and to fold them double for shipping before being filled, the binders being also flattened.
Having claim is- 1. A bottle wrapper consisting of the blank longitudinally creased and bent into an endless series of W-shaped crimps androlled into a cylinder, said crimps extending lengthwise of the cylinder from end to end in straight rows, the said blank being provided with a series of slots opposite the shoulder of the bottle and extending transversely across the alternate longitudinal crimps, whereby the wrapper conforms to the shape of the bottle,
described my invention, What I 80 in combination with the binder hoops O, E,
substantially as described.
2. A wrapper composed of the W-shaped crimped blank A, provided with two series of 5 slots, one opposite the shoulder, and the other opposite the base of the neck of the bottle,
whereby the wrapper conforms to the shape of the bottle, in combination with the outside binder hoops O, E, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set THEODORE F. W. SCHMIDT. Witnesses:
- my hand.

The very first step, before putting on any jewelry or adornments, is the hairdo.
Make a part down the middle of the head and put the hair into two pigtails above the ears. Braid each one, wind them up, and secure into a bun. Now proceed to insert the hair ornaments, first the hair comb in the back of the head, then the side hair combs, and finally the headdress.
Earrings may be made out of gold with precious stones in varying colors and sizes, such as ruby, emerald, or topaz.
The most popular earrings for women wearing a pollera are a tri-hoop made of jet (Zarcillos), a pendant of small coins shaped like a closed eye (Dormilonas), a pearl-drop decorated mostly with cultivated pearls (Mosquetas), and golden hoops made of pearls, coral and traditional goldsmith design (Tangos).
The neck is embraced with a "bone-cover" necklace or choker.
The pollera-wearer delicately and simply covers her clavicle bone by wearing a gold medallion or cross, which is strung through a velvet or black satin ribbon for the Montuna polleras.
The gold choker is adorned with hearts and very delicate butterflies decorated with pearls and filigree gold.
To decorate the pollera blouse and chest, there are several delicate pieces that resemble those worn by the Spaniards during the colonial era.
The cadena chata, which includes the cross of Caravaca, is a delicate chain with golden filigree decorations, the rosary can be made of pearls or other stones, and the showy cabestrillo has an ornament the size of a large golden coin and imprinted with a shield. Interestingly, the witch chain is known for springing open once it is moved.
Additional necklace options include the ducktail scapular, the open cord, the Solomonic chain, the single chain, the chains of charms, and the half orange chain. All are imbued with meaning and have a specific placement that allows for appreciation of each necklace's length, inlays, pearls, and designs, among other features.
Accessories for the Pollera
Additional accessories include buttons on the petticoats, bracelets that usually match the haircombs, and golden buckles and brooches to fasten the multiple chains and cords resting on the pollera costume.
