Trump Reigns Supreme In 2016 Book Sales
by Felix Richter, Statista.com
-- this post authored by Niall McCarthy
Even though Donald Trump's suitability for presidential office has been criticised from far and wide in recent weeks, his success as an author cannot be disputed.
Out of all the 2016 presidential candidates, Trump is leading on book sales by a huge distance. His most recent book, "Crippled America: How to Make America Great Again", has certainly struck a chord with readers and it has sold over 36,000 hardcover copies this year alone.
Since 2015, Trump has sold just under a quarter of a million books. Ted Cruz has managed about 65,000 while Hillary Clinton has sold a mere 23,400. It seems Trump's fiery rhetoric about the poor state of the nation is being embraced by both voters and readers alike.
This chart shows books sold by 2016 presidential candidates since 2015.

Special Surfers
Special Surfers is a non-profit organization (501c3) that provides the opportunity for special needs kids and young adults to surf. There is no cost to participants or their families, and all equipment and instruction is provided. Special Surfer events are held on the third Tuesday of each month in June, July, and August at Gooches Beach in Kennebunk, Maine. We have hundreds of special surfers and volunteers at each event providing a real sense of community and accomplishment for all.
Nanci Boutet , the owner of Aquaholics Surf Shop in Kennebunk, has organized these events for the past decade as a result of her friendship with Maureen Dow, a special education teacher, who works with children with autism and asked if she would take a few kids with autism spectrum disorder out for a surf class.

Cold weather pretty much cramps my style because no one can see what I'm wearing when I'm walking around outside. However, wearing a really cool coat helps. I love this coat—it's my favorite piece of clothing I own. Plus it's very warm…I find that it's extremely hard to find a cute coat that is actually warm. Most coats I try on give up function for fashion, but this one doesn't.
As for the matching hat, I love it too, although I have been told I look like "a union soldier" in this garb.
Thanks for your love, Chictopians!

Big changes are happening for our almost eight-month-old panda boy, Xiao Liwu, as we do a panda exhibit swap (it sounds like a dance, doesn't it?) at the San Diego Zoo's Panda Trek. Gao Gao was moved from the exhibit in the main viewing area Monday night, and that exhibit was then cub-proofed for Mr. Wu's arrival this morning. This included a lot of tree trimming, which had not been needed for his more earth-bound father, Gao Gao!
During this transition time, the cub is learning to negotiate the access tunnel that leads him from his bedroom suite to a brand-new world of delights. This morning he was given access to that exhibit and immediately climbed up the tall pine tree, a typical response for a cub his age. Mother and cub have access to their bedroom in case they want a little retreat now and then for the next few days, so you may or may not see them, depending on their wishes. We regret that this means that some Zoo guests and Panda Cam viewers may not be able to see the youngest panda at all times. We apologize for this inconvenience but know that our panda fans will understand that sometimes our need to care for our pandas takes precedence over making them available for viewing. Soon, however, adoring fans will be able to see little brother in the enclosure next to big brother Yun Zi's enclosure in the main viewing area all day long.
Gao Gao will move to Mr. Wu's former haunt, the north/classroom exhibit, later this week. The north exhibit will be open to private tours and education programs only, but Gao can still be seen on Panda Cam. Yun Zi will continue to be in his exhibit with his new artificial tree.
We still have another exhibit renovation to do to Yun Zi's exhibit, adding more plants and sod. Plus, keepers hope to add a cross log to the Keebler so they can rehang his hammock and have places to attach his swing.
One other change that will be happening has to do with comments sent to all our blogs. Soon, all comments will post automatically–you won't have to wait for a moderator to approve your comments! We hope this will increase your enjoyment of our blog section and give you a chance to more quickly and easily interact with other panda fans. Please know that due to the increased volume on our many social media channels, we will be unable to respond to all comments or questions. Comments will be monitored and any comment that is deemed inappropriate will be removed. This change will occur later this week and will be noted in the comment box. Enjoy!
Debbie Andreen is a blog moderator (soon to be blog monitor!) and associate editor for San Diego Zoo Global.

Hayden Voss is a Pedi Cab driver who recently moved to Los Angeles without knowing a soul. This self-described "Player" plans on using his "surfer dude" exterior to his advantage while in the Big Brother house.
…oh, and he also has a large tattoo on his furry blonde butt, which I'm assuming translates to something like "first man on the poon?".
What do you think Hayden's cryptic and deep tattoo means? Check it out after the NSFW jump!

Epilepsy and Migraine Genetically Linked, Columbia University Medical Center Study
Published: Jan 07, 2013
New research reveals a shared genetic susceptibility to epilepsy and migraine. Findings published in Epilepsia, a journal of the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE), indicate that having a strong family history of seizure disorders increases the chance of having migraine with aura (MA). Medical evidence has established that migraine and epilepsy often co-occur in patients; this co-occurrence is called "comorbidity." Previous studies have found that people with epilepsy are substantially more likely than the general population to have migraine headache. However, it is not clear whether that comorbidity results from a shared genetic cause.

Enterprise SIP Trunking adoption is steadily growing and adopted by service providers and enterprises to migrate from legacy PRIs. But, maintaining and assuring PBX Interoperability is one of the biggest challenges and cost inhibitors for service provider and enterprises with multi-PBX environments to deploy SIP Trunks. GENBAND's QFlex is an Enterprise Session Border Controller software solution that resolves these challenges by providing proven interoperability with a wide variety of IP PBXs and other network elements.
The GENBAND QFlex uniquely resolves multi-vendor interoperability issues by utilizing pre-loaded adaptors with profiles for all major IP PBX vendors and application server platforms. This simplifies and reduces the time-to-market for service providers and enterprises to deploy SIP Trunking services, cutting the interoperability time from months to weeks. This unique interoperability approach also allows enterprises to use supplementary services such as call forwarding, transfer, and music-on-hold in a multi-vendor PBX environment, across different branch offices.
Optimized for small to mid-sized businesses and branch offices of mid-to-large enterprises, the QFlex also plays the role of a Back-to-Back User Agent (B2BUA) at the enterprise network edge and provides security, topology hiding, SIP ALGs, NAT/PAT translation, and most importantly enable service providers to remotely monitor, troubleshoot, and manage the quality of their SIP Trunking service.

Today starts the first part of the Mets report cards. Six staff members for Mets Merized, including myself, each compiled a grade for each position and it's respective player(s). Without futher ado, I present to you the Met Merized 2007 Report Cards.
The first part will feature First Base and Second Base.
First Base (Carlos Delgado and Jeff Conine)
Ryan P. – 2007 wasn't the brightest spot for the Mets. The players just didn't perform to their expectation. Carlos Delgado struggled all season. His goal was to pretty much get his average ABOVE .250. His power numbers were down, and so were his RBIs. Delgado wasn't clutch at all, and didn't provide that sure bat the Mets needed all season. When the Mets acquired Jeff Conine, they thought to have a solid bat coming off the bench. However, Conine, like Delgado, was not clutch. Conine never had the impact he made while he was with the Marlins.
Joe D. – Carlos Delgado's slump may not have been a slump at all, but instead the normal decline a power hitter goes through at age 35. He experienced severe drop-offs from his career norms across the board and missed 23 games with assorted injuries. This is a position where many teams are loaded with big time sluggers, but 19 other first basemen ranked higher than Delgado in slugging percentage. Backups Julio Franco, and later in the season, Jeff Conine, were both ineffective. At $20 million dollars, Delgado becomes the highest paid player on the Mets in 2008. Hopefully, the Mets will get a little better production with a healthier Delgado, but don't bank on it.
Andrew V. – Carlos Delgado had an off season, coupled with plenty of injuries, leads to this low grade for the First Base position. When Delgado was out, Shawn Green, Jeff Conine, and a few other players filled in. Green was the most productive of this group, while Conine never really did anything for the Mets. Delgado only hit .258, but still managed to hit 24 home runs and drive in 87 runs in only 139 games. I think that Delgado's defense is very underrated, as he always comes off the bag to catch the errant throws from David Wright. Hopefully next year will be better.
Jon C. – I can't tell you how many times I saw Delgado strike out or ground out weakly in a big spot with runners on base this year. While his defense was better, his offense was weak. Jeff Conine didn't bring much to the table when he was acquired in late August. I think he retired before he put on his Mets jersey. Shawn Green and Marlon Anderson were so-so playing first. Bottomline: Mets need a new first baseman but might as well wait to Texiera becomes a free agent in 2009.
Shawn L. – The only thing that is keeping me from giving this position a failing grade is the fact that Delgado did bounce back to a certain extent, and towards the end of the year when he wasn't hurt and in the lineup, this Mets team were winning. Shawn Green's late season move to first base was a nice thing to see. He brought good defense, and a strong bat towards the end of the year which was something that Delgado could not give us on a consistent basis. However Jeff Conine was a HUGE disappointment, and ultimately could not come through in the clutch. Rumor is that the Mets are looking to acquire Miguel Cabrera to play first base according to WFAN, which would add some pop and fear to our lineup.
Brian M. – Carlos Delgado may have had the profile of Roberto Clemete off the field, yet in 2007 he certainly didn't on the field. At his age 35 season, Carlos Delgado had his worst OBP% (.333), worst BA (.258), and worst SLG% (.448) since 1995. Yes he was banged up here and there and did miss time with injury but he had more at bats in '07 than he did in his more productive '05 and '06 seasons. One factor that at least had a part in his decline was his inability to hold off from swining at the inside pitch down at his knees. Because he failed to adapt to that pitch, which he can no longer handle, he clearly suffered in 2007. Jeff Conine and his .195 average was even worse. Is it fair to say that Shawn Green had the best results at first base for the Mets in 2007?
Second Base (Luis Castillo, Ruben Gotay, Jose Valentin)
Ryan P. – It was a sure thing in the beginning of 2007 that Jose Valentin was going to be the starting second baseman. However, he struggled early and got hurt. The Ruben Gotay period started. After hitting his first home run as a Met in San Francisco, he showed promising signs that he can easily be the second baseman for the Mets. He had clutch hitting, power hitting, and contact hitting. However, he did not have the best glove at second. To ensure a better defense, Omar went out to get Luis Castillo. He started off a little shaky, but he proved to be a legit number 2 hitter, a slot in which was the musical chairs for the Mets. Castillo proved why he was a former All-Star. Castillo was a great addition by the Mets, even though he couldn't hit the ball out of the infield at some parts. I wouldn't be surprised if he's back next year!
Joe D. – Jose Valentin started the season at second, but never achieved the success he had in 2006, and would later succumb to a season ending injury. He finished his season with a BA of .241 and an OBP of only .302, brutal numbers to say the least. Despite having Ruben Gotay on hand to take over, the Mets reached out and grabbed Luis Castillo to take over full time and he proved to be a big step up. Castillo brought a steady influence and professionalism at the top of the order and proved to be a great doubleplay partner for Jose Reyes. He hit .296 as a Met in 200 at-bats with 10 stolen bases, 37 runs scored, and a few key RBI's.
Andrew V. – The cursed position. Jose Valentin injured, Damion Easley injured, Ruben Gotay loses starting job, forgets how to hit, and then we just have Luis Castillo. The ever-revolving door at second base was riddled with injuries, just like most of the Mets positions all year. Valentin was not having the magical season that he put together at the end of last year, so he pulled the grade down. Damion was a huge spark with pinch hitting and key to the early season success of the team, then cooled off before his injury. Ruben Gotay brought a super hot bat to the plate, but when he was replaced by one of the best defensive second basemen I've seen, Luis Castillo, his bat disappeared in PH roles. Castillo helped the Mets a lot when he was acquired from the Twins. I hope he gets resigned because I love his skills in the field, and he sets up nicely in the number 2 hole, with the ability to get on base and to sacrifice if need be.
Jon C. – I actually thought second base was one of the stronger positions this y
ear for the Mets. Gotay probably deserved to win the second base job – he was a hitting machine, but acquiring Castillo – for a month anyway – really helped the Mets. Castillo played flawlessly defensively and complimented Reyes in the lineup. When you factored in Easley and Valentin – the Mets were stacked with quality players throughout the season when – they weren't injured that is. The Mets choked this season and rumors have it Castillo may have had a bad relationship with Reyes – but who knows. Bum knee and all, I'd welcome Castillo back or have Gotay platoon with another second baseman who the Mets can acquire in the offseason.
Shawn L. – We got a good performance from second base all year, the only problem was nobody could stay healthy. Jose Valentin played well until he broke his shin, and Damion Easley played well until tearing a ligament in his ankle. Ruben Gotay played well, but his defensive woes ultimately led to his demise. Willie never really had faith in Gotay which was because of his defense. I believe he's our second baseman of the future, however he needs to stop switch hitting because I think everyone knows he can't hit right handed. The acquiring of Luis Castillo was a positive one, but his knees are what held him back. Last week on WFAN they spoke with Omar Minaya about the rumor of Luis Castillo and Jose Reyes having late party nights, which led to Reyes complete fall-off. If this is true, that grade is an F because of an immaturity factor, but nothing has been proven yet.
Brian M. – For the gondola that was at second base things weren't all that bad. Jose Valentin's sophomore year with the Mets was nowhere close to 2006. While his defense continued to be dependable, he hit .241 over 51 games before ending his season July 20th with a fractured tibia. Damion Easley stepped in and produced an unexpected, yet very welcome, .280/.358/.466 in 76 games before ending his season with a left ankle sprain on August 18th. Subbing and starting at various time was Ruben Gotay, who batted .295 in 190 AB's, however, his defense was suspect. Omar Minaya traded for Luis Castillo at the trade deadline and killed two birds with one stone, attaining a starting second baseman with superior defensive skills and a perfect #2 hitter in the Mets line-up. With the Mets he hit .291 with a .371 OBP and his defense was spectacular. However, since the Mets final game the rumors have swelled regarding his negative influence on Jose Reyes off the field.
In summary, we all thought that First Base was one of our worst positions for the year. Struggling offense and a not so great defense proved to be problem. With an average grade of C, I don't think you need an explanation. With Delgado getting older, he needs to step up, or make way for another player.
Second Base, in our opinions, was one of the strong positions. Good backups and great hitting helped us forget the injured Jose Valentin and look towards the future of Gotay and Castillo. Although there were some errors here and there, a little bit of spark from the offense made some of it up.
On Wednesday, we will be grading Shortstop and Third Base. Pretty much, we're grading Jose Reyes and David Wright. Stay tuned for more!

By Paul Schwartzman and Annys Shin
Washington Post Staff Writers
Tuesday, May 4, 2010; A01
Just after 11 one morning last week, two men and two women, all in their early 20s, sat on a basketball court behind Dunbar High School in Northwest Washington and filled an empty cigar with marijuana -- their first hit of the day.
Also that day, at a picnic table by the Oxon Run stream, east of the Anacostia River, five men played dominoes and passed a joint.
And at an Adams Morgan park, as dog walkers and bicyclists wandered by, a 23-year-old man in a Pittsburgh Pirates cap rolled a thick joint using cherry-flavored paper. "This is hitting nice," he said moments later, forecasting that he would smoke five or six more before day's end.
The D.C. Council is set to vote Tuesday on legalizing medical marijuana, thereby allowing the chronically ill -- including those with HIV, glaucoma or cancer -- to buy pot from dispensaries in Washington.
Yet marijuana is already ubiquitous in many parts of the city, as demonstrated by federal surveys showing that Washingtonians' fondness for weed is among the strongest in the country -- and growing.
The popular image of the nation's capital leans toward the straight and narrow, a town of over-achieving, button-down bureaucrats, lawyers and lobbyists. But meander through any neighborhood from Congress Heights to Friendship Heights, and Washingtonians across race and class lines can be found lighting up.
"It's absolutely pervasive and accepted," said a 44-year-old sales manager who lives with his wife and three children in the city's Chevy Chase section. He estimates he spends $3,000 a year on pot. After a recent pickup hockey game, he found himself sharing a joint with a beer distributor and the vice president of a technology company.
"Everywhere you go, you meet someone who gets high or, if they don't, knows someone who does," he said.
Federal surveys put the District among the nation's leaders in pot consumption. More than 11 percent of Washingtonians older than 26 reported smoking marijuana in the past year -- the highest percentage of any state in the nation, according to a 2007 survey by the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Vermont and Rhode Island were second and third, each with more than 10 percent of respondents reporting marijuana use.
"Washington is among the areas in the country where marijuana use is most," said Jon Gettman, a criminal justice professor at Shenandoah University and a former leader of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. "The number of colleges in the city is one factor. Another factor, and a subtle one, is the degree that people feel open enough to answer."
But because pot is illegal, many users are reticent to discuss their habit at work, in social settings or with newspaper reporters. All of the nearly two dozen pot smokers interviewed for this article spoke on the condition that their names not be revealed.High rate of arrests
A 50-year-old scientist who lives with his wife in Adams Morgan said that if marijuana is ever legalized, he hopes to open a pot cafe called Wakey Bakey. For now, though, he's discreet, preferring to step away from the crowd at a party to smoke from a pipe shaped like a cigarette. "I don't want people to think of me as a stoner," he said. "It is, technically, illegal."
In the District, penalties for possession and distribution are strong enough to encourage discretion but too weak to be much of a deterrent. Those caught with small quantities could face up to a year in jail and up to $1,000 in fines. Dealers risk a year in prison and up to $10,000 in fines -- penalties that can double if sales take place within 1,000 feet of a school, playground, library or public housing.
The District's arrest rate for marijuana possession, 677 per 100,000 residents in 2007, is among the nation's highest. Police say pot accounts for so many arrests not only because it is so commonly used but also because it's often easier to detect than crack cocaine or heroin, with a distinctive odor that has a way of wafting out car windows during traffic stops.
"You can drop a rock and run," said D.C. Assistant Police Chief Peter Newsham. "If you drop a Ziploc bag of marijuana, you're going to leave a big patch of green."
D.C. police seized about 840 pounds of pot last year, Newsham said. "People don't feel marijuana is dangerous, but it is, because of the way it is sold," he said. "We frequently recover weapons when serving search warrants associated with the sale of marijuana."Doing a 'service'
Finding a marijuana dealer can be easy or hard, depending on how much risk a buyer can tolerate. A 26-year-old man, unemployed and just coming off probation for selling crack, said it took him all of about 15 minutes to find someone selling pot as he walked along Georgia Avenue NW on a recent afternoon.
But a businessman in his mid-40s who is married with children and lives in Northwest is too cautious to buy on the street. At parties, he tries to figure out who smokes and who might help him buy pot. If someone mentions, say, the pot-happy film "Fast Times at Ridgemont High," his ears perk up. "You listen for the cultural references," he said.
Dealers don't exactly take out advertisements. A man in his late 40s who has been selling pot full time from his Northwest home for more than two decades said he has 30 to 50 regular clients, many of them lobbyists, journalists, Capitol Hill staffers, artists and musicians.
"I'm in waste management" is among the answers he said he gives at parties when asked how he makes a living. He makes about $50,000 a year selling pot, he said, maintains regular business hours of 10 to 12 hours a week and takes time off, sometimes to the annoyance of his clientele.
"They'll say, 'You don't need to go on vacation,' like I don't have a job," he said during an interview at a restaurant near Dupont Circle. "I do have a job. In fact, I have a career. I'm doing people a service. I make them happy. People come to see me, and they leave happier than when they came."
The dealer said that the legalization of medical marijuana would lift some of the stigma attached to the drug and could be a step toward making all pot legal. But he also said Congress's authority over the District could make full legalization unlikely. "We'll be the last place it happens," he said.A steppingstone
The bill before the D.C. Council would allow physicians to recommend -- but not prescribe -- up to two ounces of pot in a 30-day period for patients with chronic, debilitating conditions. Fourteen states have legalized medical marijuana.
Many pot smokers support the bill as a steppingstone toward broader legalization, as a way to keep the drug away from minors and as official recognition that their drug of choice has some beneficial effects.
"It calms you down," said Tyrone, a 26-year-old New Orleans transplant, as he shared a joint with three friends on an empty basketball court in Northeast. A resident of a homeless shelter, he scrapes together an income helping to carry out evictions and said he spends $10 a day on pot.
Sitting next to him, a woman who identified herself as Recee, 23, a graduate of Ballou Senior High School, said, "I wake up the next day looking for another 'J' because it's just that good."
Teenagers in parts of the city said they can buy pot more easily than beer or cigarettes.
At Cardozo Senior High in Columbia Heights, teachers and students said that a group of students has turned a secluded stairwell into a smoking den. Sometimes the smell is so overwhelming that one teacher keeps her classroom door closed. "There are a lot of jokes about contact highs," the teacher said.
School administrators or security guards chase the tokers off, but they always return.

The first of Hal Roach's Our Gang comedies to be released through MGM, Yale vs. Harvard unfortunately no longer seems to exist. According to existing records, the plot revolved around a slapstick football game, with the Our Gang kids (Joe Cobb, Farina Hoskins, Jackie Condon, Harry Spear, Jean Darling, et al.) pitted against the infamous "Gas House" team. As for Pete the Pup, the beloved pooch participated in the game as a combination mascot and "coach." Yale vs. Harvard was originally released on September 24, 1927.
Add this movie to your queue to receive more information about
Yale vs. Harvard and we will let you know when it becomes available.

A New Responsorial Psalm
This weekend, July 9/10, the 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time, we'll use a different kind of Responsorial Psalm. It utilizes one of the most ancient psalm tones, type 3 of the 3 primitive types. This is a tone that is probably closely related to the tones (if not one of the actual ones) to come over to Christianity from the Synagogue in the time of the Apostles. You'll notice that it begins with a verse, and then the response follows organically. This is in keeping with the original form of the Responsorial Psalm which St. Augustine mentions. Christopher Berry has composed this setting using musical materials from the Graduale Simplex, an official Vatican publication, and utilizing the text from the Lectionary.

CACI International Inc (NYSE:CACI) announced today that it has been awarded a $22 million task order under the Global Battlestaff and Program Support (GBPS) prime contract to support the U.S. Special Operations Forces Planning, Rehearsal and Execution Preparation (SOFPREP) effort. This five-year (one base period with four option periods) award will provide modeling and simulation data for a variety of Special Operations Forces (SOF) rotary and fixed-wing aircraft and other specialized vehicles. CACI's approach to this work will enhance the U.S. Special Operations Command's (USSOCOM) capability to conduct critical training more efficiently and to more thoroughly prepare our forces for operational missions.
SOFPREP produces and maintains 3D scene visualization databases and enhanced geospatial data (maps, imagery, and terrain) for SOF simulators in USSOCOM with personnel and facilities located at Hurlburt Field, FL and Fort Campbell, KY. With the new contract, CACI will provide databases in a variety of formats for SOF simulators, and establish and manage a data center to store and archive information. The data in this extensive repository can be accessed throughout the entire USSOCOM community.
Several factors were key to this strategically important win. The CACI team applied its extensive experience in the modeling and simulation and geospatial intelligence arenas to expand and improve SOFPREP capabilities. And, it offered technological enhancements that will enable SOFPREP to better support Special Operations forces.
Dan Allen, CACI President of U.S. Operations, said, "We're particularly proud of this win because the effort involved contributions from across CACI and our partner companies, emphasizing the broad range of our collective skill sets and capabilities. Our solution blends operational understanding, proven technical experience, and in-depth understanding of SOFPREP programs to ensure full mission capability with no interruptions in mission coverage."
According to Paul Cofoni, CACI President and Chief Executive Officer, "This award is important to us, as it significantly enhances our wide-ranging portfolio of solutions in the modeling and simulation world. Of equal consequence to all of us at CACI is that this new work with the Special Operations community will directly help our forces prepare for missions, execute them efficiently, and come home safely."

Undefeated lightweight prospect Mercito Gesta (25-0-1) faces Ty Barnett (20-2-1) on August 3rd at the Texas Station gambling hall in North Las Vegas, NV. The fight will be broadcast as part of ESPN's Friday Night Fight Series.
While Barnett is a sizable underdog, he feels that his experience will lead him to an upset victory. He said that he has learned from his two losses and that he has become a better fighter because of them.
"The critics, they've awakened the sleeping giant. They're overlooking the fact that I've beaten the better opposition (than Gesta) and my two losses are a blessing in disguise," Barnett told BoxingScene.com.
"I beat myself in those loses, not my opponents. They were just in the right place at the right time and took advantage of the opportunity but we all know those two guys can't walk a day in my shoes. they can't match me skill for skill and a Ty Barnett at his best will be victorious on August 3rd mark my word!"
Barnett last fought in May when he stopped Robert DaLuz in 7 rounds. Gesta knocked out Ricardo Dominguez in his last ring appearance in April.

When giving a gift to a close friend, women often turn to jewelry. One of the best gifts someone can give a dear companion is a necklace. Special care should be taken to pick out a piece that evokes their personal style.
Some women prefer silver, while others love gold, so be sure to choose a metal that you know your friend will love.
Most girls will often have a favorite gemstone. Do some research to discover if they adore rubies, emeralds, sapphire or any other jewel, such as their birthstone.
Work environment is also important, as many women love to wear jewelry at their job. If their career calls for business-casual attire, a sleek chain adorned with a small pendant is a great choice. If their job allows for edgier outfits, feel free to go for louder, bolder pieces.
Personalized jewelry is currently a hot trend. Pendants in the shape of your pal's zodiac sign, or a bangle bracelet inscribed with a personal message – a meaningful song lyric for example – will be much-appreciated.
Your friend will think of you every time she dons her new necklace, making it an ideal way to let her know that she is appreciated.

With each summer comes a wave of new graduates and returning students looking for ways to gain career experience. This summer, the media spotlight has been focused on the nature of unpaid internships in the United States and Canada. They are no longer limited to the not-for-profit sector. It's probably a good time for employers in Canada who have some sort of internship program to reassess whether what seems like free labor is actually a liability in disguise.
Most employers equal or exceed minimum wages when regular employees require on-the-job training. But when it comes to engaging people who are willing to work for free just to get experience, all thoughts of employment standards sometimes go out the window.
In Canada, each provincial, territorial, and federal government has standards for minimum wages, hours of work, overtime, and other basic employment conditions. But only a few provide express guidance on whether these standards apply to interns. Much of the employment standards legislation in Canada is ambiguous about this.
Statutes that define employees by reference to the performance of work and an entitlement to wages—such as those in Quebec, Saskatchewan, and Alberta—are of little assistance when the question is who is entitled in the first place. In the case of employers under federal jurisdiction, such as banks and broadcasters, no definition of who counts as an "employee" for minimum wage purposes is provided.
In British Columbia, on the other hand, some of this ambiguity has been alleviated by the government's publishing of an Interpretation Guidelines Manual. Its definition of work excludes "practicums" that are performed as part of a degree program. Persons on a practicum can be unpaid; other interns must be paid.
In a couple of provinces (Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick), the minimum wage regulations apply only to persons who are paid wages. This seems to exclude unpaid workers. Elsewhere, such as in Newfoundland, Labrador, Manitoba, and Nova Scotia, employees are defined by the fact that they provide services or are under a contract of services. That approach leaves little, if any, room for employers to deny an obligation to pay interns.
In Ontario, the employment standards law provides us with detailed guidance. It's based on the interpretation given to the 1938 U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act by the U.S. Supreme Court. Under Ontario's Employment Standards Act, 2000, a person won't be considered an employee during a training period where all of the following are true:
1. The training is similar to that which is given in a vocational school.
2. The training is for the benefit of the individual.
3. The person providing the training derives little, if any, benefit from the activity of the individual while he or she is being trained.
4. The individual does not displace employees of the person providing the training.
5. The individual is not accorded a right to become an employee of the person providing the training.
6. The individual is advised that he or she will receive no remuneration for the time that he or she spends in training.
Despite these criteria, in Ontario, as in the United States, the practices of interns and employers don't necessarily match up to the requirements.
Businesses offering internships in Canada would do well to check how their program measures up. If an intern should be considered an employee, more minimum standards than just wages will apply.
Now that this topic has caught the attention of some political parties, perhaps governments will provide some further guidance to let businesses know when they can legitimately use unpaid interns. The downside is that the attention being given to the subject could lead to a rise in claims by ex-interns and investigations by government agencies of internship programs that were thought to be legitimate. Employers who want to mitigate against claims for back pay, potentially significant fines, and bad press may want to take this opportunity to ask whether they can afford not to pay their interns.

Mixing Panel
Always use a mixing panel, even for one mic. Employ high quality RF condenser mics, such as Sennheiser, Schoeps, Audio Technica. Electret shotgun systems have less reach and sensitivity than real condensers. Always have Rycote or LightWave blimp windscreens for outdoors and foam for indoors.
The mixing panel provides control over the input level during the take!
Examples of mini-mixers
FP3 1, FP32, Audio Technica.
Examples of production panels
PSC/Sela, Sonosax, Interface Electronics, Mackie, Cooper, Sony PX-21 & 61, EQE/Tascam, Panasonic etc.
Setting levels:
VU meters are averaging. Peak meters are peak reading.
In film, set 0 VU on panel to -8 db on Nagra. In video, record bars & tone at 0 VU on VTR. Then readjust input of VTR so that 0 VU (panel) corresponds to -5 VU(VTR). This allows for extra headroom on dialogue. Line level (600 ohms) is much louder/stronger than mic level (250 ohms). To convert MIC to LINE level requires small amplifier. Use line level outputs from mixer to recorder for less interference. If line level signal must be reduced for use with mic level input, use 50 dB worth of pads/attentuators. OK to use pads in series and add the totals.
Example: 2OdB + 15dB + 15dB = 5OdB
Headphone Monitoring
Monitor from the recorder when possible, so no surprises. Direct vs. Tape/Peak. Confidence head is off of tape, but slight delay.
Be attentive to buzz, AC hum, SMPTE bleed, ground loops, RF and radio/TV. Impedance of headphones should be approx. 50 ohm. Adapters for stereo/mono, 1/4' to mini.
Use of ear wigs. Open ear vs. closed ear. Sony MDR-V6 (7506) is industry norm.
Safety considerations for Mixer and Boom. Protect your hearing! Mixer can monitor off of tape for protection. Warn Boom operator and others listening. Keeps pots closed except when mixing. Protect the 'privacy' of talent on lavs & radio mics.
Recording the Signal
Allow plenty of headroom, never exceed 0 dB. On Nagras, dialogue around -8 to -6 PPM. In video, -10 to -5 VU is max.
Equalization should be minimal, except to roll off unwanted low end (wind noise, rumble); slight mid-range boost to enhance dialogue. Only do active EQ when there is no alternative -- once it is done, it cannot be undone. Better to leave it for post. Be cognizant of continuity.
Always allow 5 to 10 seconds for 'speed" after transport has stabilized. Provides 'Pre-roll" for post-production lock-up time. Talk through the "waiting period" between 'roll" and 'speed".
Multiple mics
Think one mic at a time. Keep other pots ducked down to avoid phasing problems.
Be aware of background ambiance level - consistency! Establish relative levels for talent, and maintain consistency even on close-ups. Voice quality is different than volume.

Engine Mechanical problem
2004 Mazda 3 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual 103xxx miles
Hi, I was driving home from work when I noticed the oil light flickering when I pulled into a plaza the engine suddenly turned off I noticed there was a puddle of oil underneath then the car wouldnt turn over. I got the car towed home but before I bring it to the shop could you give me a run down on what may have happened. But most importantly is there a shut off for low oil pressure for my 2.3L Thanks.
have the same problem?
