KIR: regulates the first responders of immunity
Killer cell Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (KIRs) are expressed on the surface of Natural Killer (NK) cells and are key regulators of their cytotoxic activity.1 Data suggest that KIRs may also be expressed on cytotoxic T cells.2
Inhibitory KIRs are immune checkpoint receptors that stop NK cells from killing normal cells. Nearly every normal cell expresses the ligand for inhibitory KIRs.1 When the ligand on the normal cell engages with the inhibitory KIR on the NK cell, the NK recognizes the cell as normal—and does not destroy it.1
Tumor cells subvert this process in order to evade NK cell-mediated recognition and destruction. By upregulating the ligand for inhibitory KIRs, tumor cells disguise themselves as normal cells and escape detection by NK cells.3
In preclinical studies, blockade of inhibitory KIRs, however, has been shown to help restore NK cell-mediated immune activity.4,5
Research to further understand these pathways is ongoing.

Wednesday, November 4th
We completed a chart activity and reading on absolutism and the monarchs of this time. The purpose was to show that they wanted total power, had minimum or no checks and balances, and claimed divine right (power from God). This was turned in for a grade. We started our lessons on the Scientific Revolution and did a real cool journal and discussion about the impact of inventions and how everything we have now, all of our favorite things, had to be built from earlier inventions and discoveries. We did a short note sheet with the causes of the Enlightenment and Scientific Revolution.

Duel at the two o'clock bell – A review of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
The company tells you that you need to take three vacation days by December 24 or risk losing them.
Most people would take this time to take a nice Christmas vacation. Leave the desert. Check out some snow. Experience one of those "White Chritmas'" we've heard so much about.
Meh. You can have your snow. Lock me up my apartment with Zelda calling my name.
Going into my mini-vacation in the hole, I had clocked in over a little over 30 hours playing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I was bound and determined to beat this game by the end of the six days (Wed-Mon).
At roughly 1:30 am on Saturday night/Sunday morning, it was Mission: Accomplished.
As I was dropping Ganondorf (like you didn't who it was going to be) like a bad habit, I started thinking about how my Zelda experiences have seem to come full circle. nearly 20 years ago, I popped in the gold-colored cartridge beauty that was the original Legend of Zelda. My brother and I challenging each other by trying to get further than other. My mother and sister watching us play while nothing could distract from the mission.
I'd like to think I've grown up… a little.
During a fight with one of the bosses last night, my mother calls me up with a computer problem. I didn't have time for this. I was in the heat of battle.
"Just restart the *expletive'n* thing."
"Tried that but it says…" I admit. I missed the error.
"Force quit. Do something. I'm *expletive'n* busy here. I'll look at it tomorrow."
"Playing your game?"
"I'll leave you alo…"
I already hung up.
The game brought back frustrations I've buried deep within my subconscious.
The odd angles irked the hell out of me. How could I fight something if there was a wall in my way?
Multiple types of enemies when usually just one requires my undivided attention. Those big armored dudes with the huge swords. How do you expect me to defeat three of them when they always have me backed into a corner?
And what's with that creepy Midna character? Never really offered any solid advice beyond smart aleck comments and "duh, no crap" stuff.
With that said, Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto doesn't disappoint with this fabulous Wii launch title. the graphics are rock solid. the control doesn't take full advantage of the Wiimote and nunchuk has to offer, but once again, its a launch title. hopefully they'll take better advantage of the features in the sequel.
The story is better than most stuff coming out of Hollywood. I got the impression that Miyamoto and Nintendo wanted their players to grow up. Unlike the cutesy, cell-shaded Wind Waker on the Gamecube, Twilight Princess doesn't pull any punches. There's a point in the game where you think Link will have to chose which side he fights for, and you see past heroes who have been sucked in by the evil. You see a darker side of the Zelda series.
Fear not, though, the tedious tasks are still in there. Collecting bugs for a bigger money bag? Give me a break. here's a tip: collect one bug, take it in and get your 600 jewel wallet. You can waste your money on that magical armor, but I never really used it.
Despite all my criticisms, Twilight Princess is probably one of the best gaming experiences I've had in the past five years. The story is solid. The characters are engaging. The missions and levels are difficult but not so much that you can easily work your way around them.
After over 55 hours of play, I beat the game. I will admit that a few unsavory words were used. That's my personal sign the game has sucked me in.
If you own a Wii and not this game, go out at get today. right now. Stop thinking about it. it is also available on the Gamecube.
(the headline comes from the reverend horton heat's "lucky 7″)

Something that the bookish community might not know about me, is that I love cartoons. I think they are so fun, and they are a great way to let your mind rewind.
I always go for some cartoons when I'm feeling down, or when I seriously want some good ol thoughtless (or maybe not?) entertainment!
Gravity Falls is one of my favorite cartoons of all time, coming in behind the original Teen Titians.
This tag was created by the Booktube Channel Project Hardcover. I was not tagged, but I did tell her I was going to be doing this tag (over a year ago).
Dipper: The most determined and focused on their goal main character.
Gansey From the Raven Cycle Quartet <3
How could I not pick this little baby?!
Mabel: A side character you liked more than the main character.
Morpheous from the Splintered Trilogy. I honestly love him more than any character in the entire series, but that's beside the point.
Grunkle Stan: Favorite morally gray character.
Adelina from The Young Elites. She is such a dark character who knows right from wrong, but chooses to ignore it.
The Mystery Shack: Favorite fictional setting.
(am I allowed to pick something from the raven cycle again? no? okay)
I'm going with the faerie lands in ACOTAR. I can't wait to read ACMAF, so that I can officially say the night court because rhysand.
Soos: The most loyal character.
Seymour from the Thirst series. I read these back in middle school so my mind is a little fuzzy on all the details, but I clearly remember Seymour doing anything for Alisa regradless if he would be hurt in the process or not.
Wendy: A stereo-type defying female character.
Katniss Everdeen <3
The Journals: A book that deals with a lot of mystery.
The Mericless by Danielle Vega.
Bill Cipher: A villain you really loved.
Queen Levana form the Lunar Chronicles
Robbie: Least favorite romantic interest.
Jeb form the Splintered trilogy. He is literally the most blain and annoying character I've ever had a main character interact with.
Waddles: Favorite animal sidekick
My actual favorite sidekick is actually waddles because he is a precious baby, but since this is a book tag I'll try to stick to the bookish theme.
I know I'm not suppose to pick the raven cycle again, but Chainsaw ok <3

We have been very busy reviewing hebrew letters and vowels, learning hebrew words associated with the holidays, and beginning our unit on G'milut Chasadim, or acts of loving-kindness. We discussed all the ways, we as children already do things to help others. We wrote down what we've done and drew pictures of our good deeds. We also talked about one of the 7 Spiritual Values, "Derech Eretz" and wrote down names of people we know and admire, because of their good character. Check out our helping hands bulletin board in the hallway near the back entrance to RSNS!
Shabbat Shalom!

text: I had heard that the Hanoi Zoo was not a good zoo and so, given that I hadn't thought much at all of the Saigon Zoo, I wasn't all that eager to rush to see it. But I'm glad I did because while it could best be described as "average" it is, I thought, actually better than the Saigon Zoo. It's always better to see things for yourself and make up your own mind. The zoo is part amusement park, not in two separate parts but all meshed together so that rides and fun-houses and trains are just scattered all through the grounds between the cages. There's a lot of noise, but I guess the animals are used to it - none seemed stressed or even wary. I visited on a Sunday and it was quite busy but not crowded. Lots of people wanted to take their photos with me. I'm not sure of the entry price (I think it is about 10,000 Dong) because while trying to find the entrance from the bus stop - following the noise of gibbons - I wandered though the grounds of a temple and somehow found myself in the middle of the zoo without having gone through any of the gates. It's just that sort of place. The zoo is divided into three parts. The first part that I saw was mostly birds and is perfectly acceptable. The second part is on an island in a lake and is mostly macaque cages which are not at all acceptable. The third part is for all the other mammals, which have enclosures ranging from acceptable/average/okay to fairly poor. Overall I'd describe the zoo as "pretty good" - not great but not horrendous, with very few terrible cages. In general the animals seem better housed than the majority of animals at the Saigon Zoo, although there are several notable enclosures at Saigon which are considerably better than anything at Hanoi, either in size (e.g. Saigon's cage for Annamese silvered langurs) or in general (e.g. Saigon's gibbon island). The birds are, generally-speaking, housed well enough although the aviaries aren't that pleasant to look at. There's one row of enormously tall aviaries for hornbills and raptors - one of the aviaries here housed a weird mix of a great hornbill, an Oriental pied hornbill, a griffon vulture, a crested serpent-eagle, a black kite, and a juvenile eagle of some kind. The pheasant aviaries are reasonably large, albeit mostly or entirely bare, and are also pretty tall although the only arboreal birds in them were gold and blue macaws in one aviary and a couple of hornbills in some others. I saw Vietnamese pheasants "Lophura hatinhensis" here for the first time (I know they're not a real species, but still good to see them). Most of the other aviaries in this part of the zoo were much smaller, but not necessarily too small. Think backyard aviaries in size I guess, and that will give you an idea. Generally the aviaries were mixed. For example, one held four species of laughing thrushes, two (maybe three) species of Psittacula, and greater hill mynahs. There are also Siamese crocodiles in the bird section (and some more on the island part of the zoo). They were in simple fenced enclosures. One enclosure, with a juvenile crocodile, also held all the turtles and tortoises which can be seen in the species lists below. The worst individual cage at the zoo is in the bird section: a tall narrow stand-alone cage, presumably an aviary originally, for an Indochinese grey langur. There's just one langur although the cage now also houses a young crab-eating macaque. The langur stayed in the very top of the cage on the rafters where I suspect most visitors don't notice him. Coming in close on this cage's heels as the worst in the zoo are those on the island, for all the other macaques. They are all grim, to put it mildly. Small, ugly, tiled floors, bars and mesh, a few branches. There were three cages for rhesus macaques and almost all of the individuals were suffering from some skin condition - many of them were completely bald. Other macaques - curiously none of which seemed to have the skin condition even though all were housed quite close to one another - were Assamese, crab-eating, northern pig-tailed, and stump-tailed macaques. So, all five species found in Vietnam. A comprehensive collection, housed horribly. The last part of the zoo houses all the other mammals. The hooved stock have good-sized yards. There's not many species though - sika, sambar, greater kudu, sheep and goats, a couple of zebras, and a Przewalski's horse. The pair of common hippos have a standard-sized enclosure (i.e. fairly small, yet I'd be surprised if there weren't smaller hippo pens in American and European zoos!). The elephants have another standard yard (i.e. too small). There are no giraffes and no other antelope apart for the kudus. The larger carnivores are housed in a row of large rather-ugly cages, brick-backed and bar-fronted. They aren't overly small but not that big either. Sort of an average size. There are quite a few tiger cages, one of which has a list of years cubs have been bred, so I guess most of the occupants are home-bred tigers. The cages for the smaller carnivores are not great but they are (mostly) quite a bit better than is normal for Asian zoos. Most of them had branches and hiding boxes which was good to see. There are a lot of masked palm civets here - I saw nine individuals over five cages, and there were several other cages where I couldn't see any. Summary: certainly not a horror zoo. Animals mostly housed okay. Given all the amusement rides it would probably be better visiting on the weekdays as it would be quieter, but even on Sunday it wasn't overbearing. I didn't see any bad behaviour from the other visitors, apart for one guy knocking on the wire next to a sleeping francolin. I would hesitate to recommend the Saigon Zoo as a place to visit, but if in Hanoi I'd say the zoo would be worth seeing - not a "must-see" but not an "avoid" either. Perhaps skip the island part of the zoo though, where the macaques are kept.

On the podcast today we have Jay Korff who produced the film "Endure" about Tom Mitchell's experience at the Tahoe 200 and Tom's goal of raising awareness and money for childhood cancer. Watching this film stirs an insane amount of emotion, so if you don't like to cry in front of others, you might want to watch this one in private.
Today we've got an absolute beast joining us on the podcast. You may know Ray Zahab from the documentary film, "Running the Sahara" which captured a journey of 7,500 kilometers in 111 days but that's only one of the many adventures that Ray has undertaken. We're looking forward to digging in to some of his epic journeys as well as learning more about his Impossible to Possible foundation. Ray, welcome to the podcast.
Today we're digging into stage racing a bit. I've had many friends that have run TransRockies and just rave about the communal experience and fun vibe that it brings to the sport, but never experienced this myself. Aside from running, Transrockies puts on 6 other events, both run and ride, all with an epic destination and experience in mind. So today we're delighted to have Aaron McConnell, the CEO of Transrockies, to discuss his events, what they bring to the community, and why everyone should go big.
Jeri Chua, an ultrarunning icon from Singapore, is an ultrarunning machine! In this episode we dig into her big accomplishments, and as of late the Malaysian 444km race. Listen in to learn about her Tor des Geants, Gobi Desert Race, UTMB experiences as well.
In this episode we dig into the mastermind behind Vacation Races, Virtual Run Club, and now owner/partner in the Utah ultra and trail fest series too.
Virtual racing has exploded in the running market over the last few years. None of us here at Orange Mud have competed in one, so we were really curious to learn more about exactly what the heck this is, why people sign up, and more. You may miss the physical human interaction, but honestly this seems to have some legs and the three of us are very exited to try one out. Will you? Listen in to decide for yourself.
Chris Miller and his content crew, who has decided to run across the country, 3000 miles, over the course of 5 months, to raise awareness about drug and alcohol addiction. His crew is not only providing support, but also making a documentary about this as well, something we can't wait to see in theaters!
Today we're joined by some amazing people from Kansas who represent one of my favorite trail races, the Hawk 100. The Hawk is a trail marathon, 50 mile, and 100 mile event on the beautiful trails of Clinton Lake State Park near Lawrence Kansas. As a Kansas boy myself, this race is extra special to me, and is permanently on my race calendar each year. Sherrie Klover, Ami Weidler-Hyten, and Gary are all co directors and we're pumped to have them!
Today we have a guest we can all learn a lot from. Gunhild Swanson is one of those runners that exemplifies longevity in the sport of Trail and Ultrarunning and gives us all hope that we can keep pursuing our passion for running no matter our age! At 73 years young, you're doing more than many ever do, regardless of their age, in your athletic pursuits.
Running can be an addiction for some, but listen to Scott's story and I think you'll see it's an addiction worth having. Plus he'll put a smile on your face for the entire podcast.
Today we'd like to welcome to the show Scott Searle. Scott has been able to use running as a way to escape a serious drug and alcohol addiction, a story that many in the long distance running community have heard or can relate to themselves. However, Scott's running comes with a bit of a twist but we'll get to that in a bit!
Welcome to another episode of the Orange Mud Adventure Channel Podcast. Today your hosts are myself, Josh Sprague and Paul Jesse from Orange Mud. We're excited to talk today with Adam Zucco. Adam has been coaching triathletes for over 15 years and, along with his partner Joe Friel, founded Training Bible Coaching. Adam has coached countless athletes to PRs, Kona Qualification as well as US Olympians.
Today we're going to dig in to the topic of training with a Power meter. A power meter is a device that basically measures the power output of a rider. Most use strain gauges to measure torque applied and combined with angular velocity calculate power. Adam is an expert in this arena, Paul and I, well, not so much, so we're really excited to dig into how it can be used to improve your training and racing on the bike as well as the in-roads currently being made in running with power measuring devices.
Adam is such a stud that 8 of his athletes have qualified for the Ironman World Championships in Kona this year!
Annie is attempting an FKT on the Ice Age Trail. The conditions have been pretty brutal this year with lots of rain and much, but she's going for it! Listen in to learn more!
Nutrition is something that many of us stumble on in training and racing, especially in the longer events. We both have known tons of people that have switched to Tailwind with tremendous success and as such are super excited to have Tailwind founder Jeff Vierling on the call today.
Welcome to another episode of the Orange Mud Adventure Channel Podcast. Today your host are myself, Josh Sprague and Paul Jesse from Orange Mud. We're happy to welcome back Dr. Michelle Cleere to the show. Dr. Michelle is a performance and sports psychology coach helping people reach their potential in many different aspects of life. If you haven't already listened to our previous talk with Dr. Michelle you should definitely go check that out. Today she's here to talk with us about depression, a topic that is quite prevalent in the endurance sports community, but rarely talked about. We dig into the why, how to help (or at least support), and more.

The man who believes and proves there are no limits!
In this episode we dig into the passion and focus of Cyril Derreumaux, a Guiness World Record holder for endurance paddling. Last year he and his team set the record for the shortest time to paddle from California to Hawaii. They paddled in teams of 2 for 1 1/2 hours on, 1 1/2 hours off, for over 40 days. It's an amazing accomplishment and his energy is simply infectious!
It's time to get our "Mindfulness" on!
You've probably researched training plans, nutrition, and gear to make your body perform in endurance sports, but have you researched how to make your mind ready? We explore the topic of mindfullness, tips on how to beat the demons, and more with Dr. Michelle Cleere, a sports psychologist and overall amazing person!
Pete Kostelnick, a running master who set the fastest time for running across America, breaking the previous mark by over 4 days. He averaged 72 miles a day to finish in 42 days, 6 hours, and 30 minutes. He's also finished Badwater 3 times, won it twice, and holds the course record. Needless to say, he's fast, really really fast, and go run for a very long time!

If you listened to some of our other podcast you'll know I'm doing the Leadman series of events this year. So aside of what we hope to provide for our listener interest, I have my own personal agenda that is really digging all the info I'm learning about tackling this 5 part event. It's been extra exciting to have the founders of the Leadville Race Series, nutritionist, sports psychologist, coaches, and today my buddy Don Reichelt, a recent Leadman finisher and endurance coach on the podcast. In this episode we're going to dig into the sport of endurance for those that are looking to get into it or step up their distance a bit. Don has been racing ultras for a couple years now, but tackled Leadman without even being a mountain biker until about 6 months before it, yet still rocked it with style. That sounds crazy, but I'm sure many of you have had a similar entry of diving in head first, then figuring it out in route.
Today we're going to dive into the sport and race directing of mountain biking with the legend Todd Sadow of Epic Rides. Todd has been putting on races for 19 years with some of the most high quality events in the country. 24 hours in the Pueblo is like a Woodstock in the desert, the Whiskey 50 is a torture fest followed by an amazingly supporting party town afterwards, and the Tour of the White Mountains will introduce you to some of the most amazing and barely ridden singletrack in Arizona while putting a royal hurting on you. Two new events are the Grand Junction Off Road, and the Carson City Off Road event. Listen in to learn more about his amazing events and the sport of mountain biking.
Today we are going to dig into Primal Quest, one of the most prestigious adventure races in the world, and how Maria Burton and her team are working to bring it back to the mainstream. She gives us the breakdown on the course design, challenges, teamwork, and insight into one of the most amazing races in the world.
Today on the show we have someone who I believe is the most well rounded athlete, business person, charity driven, and motivational person on the planet and her name is Robyn Benincasa out of Southern California. I first met Robyn about 10 years ago when I was racing with her brother Jack London in a ton of adventure races. Robyn is the crazy sister that we idolized as she was always a long ways ahead of us in any event that we were in together. She became a world champion adventure racer on team Nike, Merrel, and Earthlink, and has taken top finishes in the Eco Challenge, Primal Quest, and other top adventure races across the globe. In addition she holds world records for endurance paddling via stand up paddle board and kayaking, is a 10x Ironman finisher, twice on the podium, Judo National Champion, award winning motivational speaker, firefighter, and founder of Project Athena.

I have a pancake obsession. You may have seen some instagram posts over the last couple of weeks where I've been recipe testing protein pancakes for a project that I'm working on with some other bloggers. We're taking eggs to the next level. You can be sure of that. More on that later, I promise. The humble pancake, however, is one of my favourite foods to eat for breakfast.
Pancakes, to my mind, fit into two categories: The first being the every day pancake. These are the pancakes that I'll make on mornings before I head to work or school. They're high in protein and fibre and low in sugar and carbs, usually made with some combination of eggs, protein powder, and nut meals or grain-free flours. I usually top them with fresh fruit and nut butter for a really satiating and high nutrient breakfast. They taste great, and on really busy days, keep me feeling full for a long time. These pancakes would fit into that category. The second category of pancakes are of the #treatyoself genre. These pancakes are light and fluffy, made more traditionally with flour and buttermilk or yogurt, are typically smothered in maple syrup, and are often eaten with bacon or sausage. You know the kind I'm talking about. They're the kind I have once in a while for a special occasion brunch—birthdays, holidays, or simply because it's the weekend. The weekend is special in our world.With the large amount of yogurt in the ingredient list, you're certainly getting some protein in these, so you could argue that these pancakes are a cross between the two. But if we're being honest, they really land more in the #treatyoself category. And boy, did I treat myself. When I tested these, I ended up eating a full batch in one day. (This is no judgement zone, right?) I ate some for breakfast and lunch, then when I remembered that L couldn't eat them because there was dairy in them, I ate the remaining pancakes for dessert after dinner. To maintain some sense of dignity, I did have a big salad for dinner to make up for it. Sometimes you just gotta do it, folks! In all seriousness though, they are really that good.
I must admit that I have a penchant for anything with cornmeal in it. (Polenta? Watch out!) Combined with the now in season(!!) wild blueberries, Blueberry Cornmeal Pancakes make for a perfect pairing. They're sweet, light, and with the cornmeal, offer just a little bit of texture. Topped with local, fresh strawberries with just a smidge of syrup and OJ, the berries really sing. Blueberries and strawberries? Now it's a double berry thing.Making pancakes is really as simple as combining your dry ingredients in one bowl, your wet in another, mixing them together, and cooking it on a hot pan. Top the pancakes with the blueberries, while they are cooking, otherwise they'll fall to the bottom of the batter. Oh, and cook them with a little butter! The flavour is fantastic. Coconut oil is also an option, but I find that you really have to watch them to ensure they don't darken too quickly. Either way, you should definitely make these. Your breakfasts will be all the better for it.
- 2/3 cup of fine cornmeal
- 1/2 cup gluten-free flour (or unbleached all-purpose, if you prefer)
- 2 tbsp stone ground cornmeal
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 5 drops vanilla stevia (or 1 tbsp maple syrup, honey, etc.)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 egg, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup milk of your choice, I used soy
- 1.5 cups plain yogurt (Greek or regular) *Greek will give you more protein.
- 1 tbsp melted coconut oil
- 1 cup fresh or frozen, wild blueberries
- Butter or coconut oil for cooking
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1 tbsp orange juice
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- Place all of the dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk them together.
- In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg and whisk in the remaining ingredients, except the blueberries.
- Combine both mixes and gently mix them together. Let the batter rest for a few minutes.
- While the batter is resting, chop your berries and stir in the orange juice and maple syrup. As the pancakes cook, the berries will start to release their juices. Give the berries a stir just before serving.
- Heat a cast iron skillet (or skillet of your choice) up to just over medium heat and add butter or oil, enough to just coat the surface. When a droplet of water sizzles in the pan, you're ready to go.
- Use a measuring cup or ice cream scoop to spoon your batter into the pan. (I used a scoop that was equivalent to about 2 tablespoons.) Turn the heat down to just below medium and watch that your cakes don't darken too quickly.
- While the pancake is cooking, delicately place blueberries over the surface of the cake.
- When the edges start to dry and you see small bubbles starting to appear, flip the cakes and cook for a few more minutes on the other side.
- They're ready when the other side is golden and the berries start to release their juice.
- Serve immediately, topped with berries, before they get soggy.

Abubakar was born in 1930 in the Palmas region of South Sulawesi. He was born to a Moslem family but was educated at a Christian School. A self-taught artist, he often used Christian themes as the only ones adequate to express his understanding of human suffering. Genesis and its stories of creation were a popular subject for his art. In 1980, he painted the temptation of Adam and Eve on canvas and later a larger series on Paradise Lost . He sees the lost paradise as the result of our own deeds and not as a punishment from God. "It is the karma of our own deeds", he says "to loose paradise or to regain it."
He experiments with several techniques including batik, woodcut, monoprint, watercolors and wood carving.
He lives in Jakarta and assists church publishing programs. "I still see myself as a pilgrim," he writes. "I am still seeking after truth and beauty, and how to show God's love in my life and my art."

Capital New York
Azi Paybarah
Daily News columnist Juan Gonzalez describes it as the latest fight to lift low-wage workers out of the cycle of poverty, and a continuation of a battle set off by the Bronx Borough President who opposed the mayor's plan at Kingsbridge Armory.
But the News' editorial page, the News comes out flatly against the bill, arguing that it's the city, not the private companies, who would really be paying for the workers' higher salaries.
"[F]orcing salaries up only increases the cost of a project -- and thus the public contribution."
On the op-ed page, Harlem councilwoman Inez Dickens explains why she supported the original bill earlier, but now opposes the bill because it goes too far (despite the fact it was scaled back to apply only to larger businesses).
The whole debate, neatly encapsulated inside one newspaper today.

Haha I thought standing on wood looked uncomfortable. :-) You're much braver than me for giving it a go.ReplyDelete
I was just wondering if that material was itchy? Asos look like they've got another one similar in stock but I hate it when material irritates my skin.
Beth x
Hey Beth, thanks for stopping by :)Delete
It's actually not itch at all. I know that it probably could be.. But that's probably if it was more of a form fitting number. As this is a loose draped dress, I find it one of the more comfortable items in my wardrobe. That's why I tend to reach for it, as it doesn't need much else to compliment it.. But probably a good pair of shoes! haha xx
Metallic color looks great on you. And red lippie does even more justice to the outfit.ReplyDelete

OK. >> What are you trying to do? > Why not use multiple databases on different paths, which include > a platform string in the path to the rpmdb, instantly avoiding > the problem that you are seeing, instead? Well... I need to put together a packaging system that manages multiple architectures (platforms) at once. The packages are installed in a shared disk space (NFS storage) and the directory structure being used needs to be backwards compatible with one already in place. We use the --prefix and --exec-prefix style split for most packages. The management of the installed packages needs to happen from one or more computers sharing the storage and the management platforms may be of different OSes and architectures for a given NFS repository. I need reporting, etc. from these hosts. Since RPM pretty much gets the job done (the key is to get the "RPMTAG_ARCH" defined right), it seems much easier to me to have a single rpm database for this shared tree, than multiple trees and wrappers around RPM to make sure the right thing happens multiple times, or to take the reporting output and merge it properly (e.g. a "noarch" package installed in multiple trees should be reported only once). With a merged tree and RPM handling the packaging the "multiple" part of the problem takes care of itself. Thanks, again, for clearing up what RPM keys off of! I really appreciate getting that straightened out. Jeff. -- Jeff Putsch Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Office: 503.267.5480 Horse ... Water ... Drink.Received on Wed Mar 4 03:55:37 2009

The reason for this is two-fold. Salespeople are great at selling, meaning not only are they good at selling products, they're even better at selling themselves. According to Hireology's CEO Adam Robinson, "mediocre salespeople are A-players when it comes to selling themselves." Additionally, many managers don't know what to look for. It's been drilled into their head that the more experience a candidate has, the more likely they are to succeed in a job. While experience is important, there's so much more that needs to factor into the hiring decision before a job is offered.
Take note: The key to hiring great salespeople is knowing what to look for and understanding what you are looking at.
But what does this mean? Download Robinson's whitepaper, "How to Hire Salespeople" to find out what this entails.

I am attaching the layout I think I want to go with for Next year. I am planning on running 12v pixels. It would be about 1900 pixels in total. I currently have a PiCap and was thinking about driving the Tree and Cross with it. I dont think the piCap could run the full layout. Thoughts?? Would a Falcon 16v3 be enough to run the rest of it? Where would be the best placement for the controller. I also realize I would need power injection as well. Where would be the best points for that?
You could run it all from the falcon...for the arches you'd probably have to run and F-Amp or 2 to get the data to run that far...but it's doable!
I see 4 sections: Garage w/rooflines and window; Entry with cross, tree and roofline; Wreath with roofline; and Arches.
Garage could be powered by a PS inside the window in the gable. Use low voltage landscape wire out the window to the elements. Assuming double window, you can carefully pinch the wires between the window frames without a huge air leak.
Entry: Mount a PS on your "saddle" to power the cross, roofline and maybe tree. Saddle would be a central place to mount Falcon but it would be inconvenient for maintenance.
I think Wreath and roofline could be powered from the ground with heavy landscape wire.
Arches get their own PS.
The Falcon is incredibly powerful and can easily handle 2000 pixels but if it goes bad, so does most of your show and it's more expensive to replace.
I do not know how much a PiCap can drive but you may want to consider 4 small controllers instead of 1 small and 1 big.
You also may consider small cheap wifi enabled controllers and a good wireless access point. 6-8 (including spares) ESPixelStick based controllers is about $160 and a good WAP is another $50.

Info Sharing from Haiti …
Last week we were fortunate enough to be visited by the two women who are heading the Faith & Concern project for Haiti. While they were here I had the chance to learn more about the mission we share with St. Bridgit and Sacred Heart Parish in Lexington MA. Lee Crivello, the new chairperson of the organization has visited Haiti several times in the past five years. She shared some very interesting facts that you may be interested in knowing.
First of all, the three parishes mentioned above, which includes us, are essentially the ones who are providing the money for the teachers' salaries. The total operating budget for the teacher salaries is approximately $40,000 and no, this is not an error. There are 54 teachers in an area that includes one main school presently with eleven grades. All of the teachers are paid within the budget. Also included in this system are 12 chapel schools in the surrounding areas which provide schooling to children who live too far to travel on a daily basis. There is a total of 1200 children being educated.
Until this year, CRS was providing the one hot meal a day the children were receiving. This is mostly beans and rice. Only children in grades 1 – 6 were given this meal. The older children did not eat lunch unless they were fortunate enough to bring something from home. This rarely happened. This year all the students are being fed the noon meal. The outlying chapel schools are not being provided with any lunch since they do not have the facilities for storage food supplies.
There are some classes that have desks, i.e. a small board about 6" – 12" but many classes have no desks at all. Some students have at least one workbook but only if they could afford to purchase one. Other than that, there are no materials. The classes are virtually empty. The students do learn however and they are very serious about their education. The parents are appreciative of the fact that their children will have more opportunity than they had.
Both women visiting us repeatedly emphasized their gratitude for all we do for the education of the children of Haiti. Your generosity is very much appreciated. The educational system of Fonts des Blancs in Haiti would have great difficulty existing at all without us.
Thank you everyone. If you have any questions about our mission feel free to contact me. Lorette

Grades K- 3
Classes for children in these grades has
resumed on the weekend of September 16/17.
Grades 4 – 10 +
Last year we initiated a new program for the children in these grade levels. The classes are held once a month and the program is geared to the entire family. Parents are strongly urged to attend the sessions as there is an adult component to the program which helps them to deepen their knowledge of the faith as well as making it possible for them to compliment the practice of the faith in the home.
Our first class was held on Sunday, October 15, 2006.
Our next class is scheduled for January 14th.
This year, the classes will be held from 4:00 – 6:00 pm here at

Question of the Week
Fourth Sunday of Advent
(Receptive to God's Will)
Micah 5:1-4 (He Shall Be Peace!)
Hebrews.:10: 5-10 (The Will of the Lord)
Luke: 1:39-45 (Mary Visits Elizabeth)
Question for Adults:
How can I believe more deeply in God's power to achieve what seems impossible?
The question of faith is almost always directly related to the element of Trust. If we have become jaded in our lives due to experiences of being mis-led or by our political, religious or community leaders, not to say our family members, we will carry our feelings of lack of trust into our spiritual lives. Perhaps this weeks we could spend some time reflecting on the gift we receive on Christmas Day. Should be Trust this child born to us to bring us Joy, Peace, and Love? If yes, then we will be better able to believe in God's power to work in our lives. Merry Christmas to all!
Question for Children?
What does having trust in God mean to me?
Children usually have less difficulty trusting people then do adults. They have not had the chance to experience serious betrayal in their lives. This would be an excellent time to discuss the meaning of Trust in their lives. What does it mean to them?
Take the time to give example they can use in the near future. This is an important element of their spiritual development.

25 years and still going strong for Lil in Rhyl RNLI
The all-weather lifeboat RNLB Lil Cunningham celebrated 25 years as station boat at Rhyl on 18th June 2017.
The Mersey-class lifeboat has stood sentinel over the beaches and seas off Rhyl since 1992, saving hundreds of lives, and launching to all types of craft and vessels in her time. The lifeboat is launched on average over 20 times a year, as well as launching on fortnightly exercises and displays.
Her crew are rightly proud of their station boat, but they realise that in today's high-speed world, a boat which is capable of 15 knots is fairly slow. The crew were delighted that they have been allocated a new 25-knot Shannon-class lifeboat by the RNLI, which will replace 'Lil' by 2019.
However, the present time is the right time to celebrate a quarter-century of service to the North-East coast of Wales. 'Lil' will be launching at 10am on Sunday 25 June and the crew will wish her Happy Birthday on that day.
Paul Frost MBE, Deputy second coxswain says 'I remember seeing 'Lil' in Poole RNLI headquarters as we went for training on her, a week before she was sailed by the crew round the coast to take up station at Rhyl. Seeing her for the first time made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up with awe and pride!'
Key facts about the RNLI
The Royal National Lifeboat Institution is the charity that saves lives at sea. Our volunteers provide a 24-hour search and rescue service in the United Kingdom and Ireland from 238 lifeboat stations, including four along the River Thames and inland lifeboat stations at Loch Ness, Lough Derg, Enniskillen, Carrybridge and Lough Ree. Additionally the RNLI has more than 1,000 lifeguards on over 240 beaches around the UK and operates a specialist flood rescue team, which can respond anywhere across the UK and Ireland when inland flooding puts lives at risk.
The RNLI relies on public donations and legacies to maintain its rescue service. As a charity it is separate from, but works alongside, government-controlled and funded coastguard services. Since the RNLI was founded in 1824 our lifeboat crews and lifeguards have saved at least 140,000 lives. Volunteers make up 95% of the charity, including 4,600 volunteer lifeboat crew members and 3,000 volunteer shore crew. Additionally, tens of thousands of other dedicated volunteers raise funds and awareness, give safety advice, and help in our museums, shops and offices.
Learn more about the RNLI
For more information please visit the RNLI website or Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. News releases, videos and photos are available on the News Centre.
Contacting the RNLI - public enquiries
Members of the public may contact the RNLI on 0300 300 9990 or by email.
The RNLI is a charity registered in England and Wales (209603) and Scotland (SC037736). Charity number 20003326 in the Republic of Ireland

Holobal review and #giveaway
Holobal review and giveaway for Thursday thoughts with TorreyHey everyone!! It's my day again, and this time I have a really great giveaway. I received some great toys from Petprojekt, and was asked to do a review and giveaway. (Disclaimer: I only got the toys, no money for the review) They make a ton of different toys, but I was sent some of the new toys, a holobal, and holobone. These are really cool, not like anything I have seen before. Mom thought I would really enjoy the bone shaped one, and she was right. But let me tell you the best part of the holobal, and holobone toys……treats can be put inside. So it's kind of a game to get the treats out so you can eat them. At first, I was a little unsure how to get the treat out that I knew was in there. But, I am a smart dog, so I figured it out pretty darn fast. The toys are pretty tough flexible rubber, so they are nice to chew on. The rubber is 100% natural, so no chance of any yucky chemicals. They are nice and light weight, and easy to see if you are playing outside. I have had fun with the round ball, and the bone both. The good news is, I saved the green holobal football that you see above to give away to one lucky winner. It measures 7″ long, just so you know. But I think smaller dogs could have fun getting the treats out, and playing with it. So, you guys know the drill on giveaways. Follow the instructions on the rafflecopter, and good luck!! Sorry, mom is shipping this one out, so US addresses only. And since this a fitness type toy, I am joining in the FitDog Friday bloghop.

This new product combines the content of New Grove (including New Grove Opera and New Grove Jazz), The Oxford Companion to Music, and The Oxford Dictionary of Music (2nd edition). Searches can be directed at any of the sources, or across all three. According to a press release by Oxford, "Grove Music Online's many improvements and enhancements will include a completely new and user-friendly interface, sophisticated advanced search capabilities, improved biographical searching, OpenURL compliance, an expanded cross-reference system, and more." Oxford is also forming partnerships with third parties such as the Database of Recorded Music (DRAM), RILM, and eventually Naxos that will support linkages between the databases.
The other most significant development is that Oxford Music is OpenURL compliant. This means that you will be able to generate a Voyager search directly from a bibliography entry with a click of the mouse, allowing you to search the online catalog for that item. This functions much the same way the "Find Text" button works on some other databases, such as RILM.
Not only will the searching be different, but the way the results are displayed will also be different. Where multiple articles on the same topic exist, primacy will be given to the article from New Grove. Articles from "baby Groves" will be found under the main article, listed as "archived articles." Oxford will also be developing a thesaurus and name authority list for variant spellings (e.g. Tchaikovsky vs. Chaikowskii). When searching biographies, it will be possible to limit by different criteria, such as occupation (e.g. "tenor," or "singer" which will take into account all voice types). The new search interface supports the use of Boolean operators (including "near," which Voyager does not use) and wildcards. A quick search box is available at the top of every page.
Oxford maintains that the site is equally accessible through a variety of browsers, including:
- Firefox 2+
- Safari 2
- Opera 9
- Lynx
Search results can be both printed (no more frames!) or emailed. Abbreviations are spelled out as mouseovers or hyperlinks. Search terms are highlighted in the article. The navigation tabs are more useful now, including tabs for Article, Works, Multimedia, and Related Content (the latter referring to content within Oxford Music rather than external links, which are included as part of the bibliographies). The display of works lists has also been significantly improved.
As with any major change such as New Grove is undergoing, there are going to be things that you will like about it, and things that you do not. For better or worse, there is little that we can do in the way of customization, however, Oxford is encouraging feedback which can be found using the Contact Us link in the upper right corner

Rising employee turnover is a problem in many companies. Often candidates are recruited with wishes that the company can't fulfill long term. The candidate is then quickly disappointed and wants to leave the company. This can result in high costs for the company, in the form of vacancy and re-recruitment costs.
In order to solve the problem permanently and to find and retain suitable candidates within the company, it is necessary to define a candidate not only on the basis of their professional qualifications, but also on the basis of their personality and wishes. This definition is called the "candidate persona".
The changing nature of the job search process is important to steer future marketing and branding efforts. In this way, the candidates that will be addressed are also in a personal sense best suited for the job and thus remain long-term in the company and achieve good results.
What exactly are candidate personas?
Candidate personas are ideal candidate profiles for a particular job. It is a fictional, yet realistic description of the optimal candidate. The candidate persona should be as accurate as possible, so that the needs of the candidates can be exactly reproduced and concrete recommendations for the marketing and branding strategy can be determined.
What is the difference between a candidate persona and a job profile
With a job profile, the professional suitability stands in the foreground. With a candidate persona, different areas of competence of potential candidates are dealt with.
Why define a candidate persona?
Job profiles are based exclusively on professional qualifications; candidate personas also take personal qualifications into account. In times of skill shortage (employment rate), this expansion is important. Employees today are not only looking for a job, but also for additional job opportunities (e.g. childcare, sports, etc.) and can choose the job that suits them best.
How do you define candidate personas?
First, make a profile of the most important qualities your ideal candidate should have.
Our experience shows that a survey of newly hired candidates can help you to create the profile.
If a candidate is interviewed on the first day, they can provide an understanding of why they applied.
If a candidate is interviewed after 6 months, they can explain why they stayed.
The questionnaire after 18 months provides an understanding of why the candidate remained happy in the long term.
The following questions should be asked:
- Which demographic data are relevant?
- What education and experience does the candidate have?
- What kind of job does the candidate have? Are they ready to change?
- What offer would motivate the candidate to switch?
- What professional / personal goals does the person have? What can you offer them? What not?
- What benefis of your company would appeal to the candidate?
Once this information has been compiled, a targeted approach can be utilized in the next step.
