C-SPAN Bus Gives Local Students An Inside View Of Cable Network
By Eric Seiverling
Students at Mt. Lebanon and Steel Valley high schools were able to get an insider's view of cable television programming when the public access giant C-SPAN and its 45-foot customized touring motor coach visited the schools on Mon., Dec. 11.
The stop was a partnership with Comcast to allow students, teachers, and community members to experience C-SPAN's multi-platform public resources.
The visit was the bus's first appearance in Pittsburgh, and was part of the network's year-long 50 Capitals Tour, which started in September of 2017.
"We want to make sure we're establishing close connections in our community," Comcast Public Relations Manager Josephine Posti said when asked why C-SPAN and Comcast chose to visit the two schools. "Mt. Lebanon and Steel Valley high schools are geographically in two totally different parts of Pittsburgh."
The tour includes the $1.2 million bus visiting every state capital in the country, including Alaska and Hawaii.
According to C-SPAN Representative Joel Bacon, Pennsylvania is the 13th state the bus has visited.
The bus – also dubbed a studio on wheels – features HD television screens to demonstrate the C-SPAN video library, HD cameras for live television feeds, and the C-SPAN Classroom, a free, interactive educational resource for students.
While onboard the bus, students were given an insider's view of how the network operates its "gavel to gavel" coverage, which includes non-commercial, editorially-balanced, unbiased coverage of public affairs and political events. The network eschews funding by sponsors or advertisers, and instead is financed by cable subscribers, receiving 6.5 cents per cable subscription.
"We believe people should have access to the news without us getting in the way," Bacon told the students. "We try to be as non-partisan as possible. We don't try to sensationalize anything."
Students were given pocket Constitutions, and were also made aware of C-SPAN's national documentary competition StudentCam, a contest that allows students to produce a five minute video documentary with the theme The Constitution and You. Students who produce winning documentaries will be awarded $5,000.
The visit at Mt. Lebanon High School also featured appearances by Mt. Lebanon Commissioner Kelly Fraasch and Stacey Reibach, director of community relations for Pennsylvania Senator Guy Reschenthaler.
While at Steel Valley High School, the bus was visited by Joe Costanzo, liaison for Pennsylvania State Senator Jay Costa, and Homestead Mayor Betty Esper.
"I'm a newshound so I'm always watching C-SPAN and the other news channels to find out what's happening," Esper said. "Senate votes are very important."
Jodi Geyer, instructional coach at Steel Valley middle and senior high schools, said the visit coincides with the students' curriculum in social studies, psychology, and current events classes.
"This definitely falls within what they're learning in their classes," Geyer said in between student groups boarding the bus. "Students have a lot of opinions, but I'm not sure they know how to identify bias. Having something like this where they can form their own opinions is very important."
Launched in 1979, C-SPAN is found in nearly 100 million television households. Since then, the network has launched C-SPAN2, C-SPAN3, and C-SPAN Radio.
The C-SPAN Bus community outreach program began in 1993.
During a break from meeting with students, Bacon described his experience on the bus.
"All over the country, students are engaged by our information," he said. "I'm not surprised by the amount of smart students that we meet."

An estimated €8.48bn worth of building projects are expected to start work this year according to Construction Information Services (CIS). This is on top of the €8.2 billion worth of projects where construction is currently under way.
These are in addition to civil engineering projects such as new roads and other infrastructural projects which will be sponsored by the Government.
CIS research also shows that as many as 1,494 building projects worth €44.3 billion are currently on hold. The survey examines all projects being planned and built in a range of sectors including commercial, residential, educational and social, medical, industrial, tourism and leisure projects.
It found that 193 projects are currently under construction and the educational and social sector accounted for 66 of these. As many as 22 of them were residential developments with a value in excess of €5m.
CIS research staff also interviewed parties involved in the projects which have got planning approval and these indicated that 183 projects will start work this year. Residential accounted for 78 of these projects with a total value of almost €4.9bn.
The commercial sector accounted for 38 of the projects which are due to start and these could be worth more than €2bn. Industrial will account for 16 projects valued at €1.07bn.
The Finglas/Ballymun area looks set to be one of the busiest areas for construction jobs this year with both Treasury Holdings and Bovale Developments indicating that they plan to begin work on two major shopping projects.
The opportunities presented by passing IKEA traffic appears to be one of the reasons.
Bovale, which is headed by brothers Tom and Michael Bailey, promises to create 900 jobs in the €135m development of the next phase of Charlestown Centre which is located on St Margaret's Road in Finglas.
Treasury Holdings, headed by Johnny Ronan and Richard Barrett, says it expects to undertake tendering work on the regeneration of Ballymun Shopping Centre this year with a view to being on the ground late 2010 or early 2011.
It also expects to start work on its major Sligo Town centre project this year.

She sits 45 feet high above her visitors, her reflective surface mirroring the surrounding landscape and those that take in the view. She symbolizes beauty and connectivity, a contemporary interpretation of the mythological goddess Venus. The installation seeks to raise awareness and support for organizations like International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children.
Rei Kawakubo is a Tokyo-based designer and founder of the Japanese fashion label Comme des Garcons ("like some boys"). Season after season, collection after collection, she upends conventional notions of beauty and disrupts accepted characteristics of the fashionable body. "Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garcons: Art of the In-Between" examines nine expressions of "in-betweenness": Absence/Presence; Design/Not Design; Fashion/Antifashion; Model/Multiple; High/Low; Then/Now; Self/Other; Object/Subject; and Clothes/Not Clothes. It reveals how her designs occupy the spaces between these dualities – which have come to be seen as natural rather than social or cultural – and how they resolve and dissolve binary logic.

Unkempt Premises
If a company isn't concerned enough with the look of their own building, how can you be expected to trust them with your building? If you visit a showroom with a dirty parking lot that's full of old cigarette butts, has filthy windows and dirty floors, you might as well just get back into the car and save yourself the time.
Outdated Stock
Many people point to the modernity of a company's stock as a sign of their commitment to the flooring industry as a whole. These people are correct to do so! If you walk into a showroom and you feel like you stepped through a portal to the middle 1980's, chances are you aren't going to get the service and attention you need, let alone the attractive floor you want.
Pushy or Inattentive Sales Staff
Even if you are looking for the best bargain basement deals out there, you're still going to be spending a hefty chunk of change with whichever flooring dealer you decide to go with. Considering that, shouldn't you get exactly what you want?
If you have your heart set on carpet, Dallas, and some guy is trying to convince you otherwise without listening to what you have to say, hit the road and don't look back. You didn't come to inflate some salesperson's commission, you came to get the floors you want at a price you can afford.
Looking for Hard-Surface Flooring or Carpet Installation in Dallas?
If you think it might be time to give your home a new look, Carpet World is always here to help! For over twelve years and counting, we have been providing the DFW area with quality flooring and flooring related services, and we want to put that expertise to work for you!

Algae Control
Algae can be a major unsightly problem to the pond and can plug up filters. It comes on strong in the spring when water temperatures are warming up because like our fish, our filters are also waking up from their winter dormancy and are not fully up to speed. The bacteria in the filter don't completely dye off in the winter but rather operate at a reduced effectiveness.
So what can we do to get rid of the algae or control it?
1. Keep your pond as clean as possible and free of organics and debris on the bottom of the pond. Algae likes to feed off nutrients in the water and the more organics in the pond the more you will feed it.
2. Get some plants in the pond if you can to help out compete the algae for nutrients. Plants can help with algae control but don't expect them to completely control it.
3. There are several products on the market that claim to kill algae. Some are safer and work better than others. I will share some that I have found to work the best.
Algaefix-Algaefix is a liquid algaecide that controls all types of algae including green water. It works great but it will take the oxygen right out of the water. I only recommend using it when the water temperatures are cooler in fall, winter, or spring, and not in the summer months. Water holds less oxygen the warmer it gets and if a pond is overstocked like most ponds are, it will have even less dissolved oxygen levels. Make sure you have plenty of aeration in the pond(air pump), agitation, and water movement when you are using algaefix. You must also know the exact gallons of the pond when dosing with algaefix (no guessing), otherwise you can kill fish if you overdose. In this case I would recommend underdosing if you are unsure of the exact gallons or cut the dosage in half and treat in two consecutive days to be on the safe side.
Greenclean Granular Algaecide-Greenclean is a granular algaecide and will kill algae on contact. Using it on algae in a stream, waterfall, or around the perimiter of the pond is very effective. Be prepared to manually remove and siphone out the dead algae. As the greenclean starts to break down the algae, the water may turn a bit cloudy or milky which is normal so don't be alarmed.
Potassium Permanganate-Potassium Permanganate (PP) is a purple powder and is an oxidizer. It will literally nuke the algae in the pond and will also help to reduce the organic load in the pond and help clean it up. There are different dosage rates you can use PP at, so know the gallons in the pond and what dosage rate (PPM) you are using it at. It is usually recommended to use a gram scale when measuring PP since it is a powder and measuring with a teaspoon may not be as accurate. PP is probably the most cost effective treatment for killing algae.
Baquacil-Baquacil Oxidizer can be found at any pool supply store and is just 27% hydrogen peroxide. They will tell you it can kill your fish but this is only true if you overdose or don't know how much to use. Hydgrogen Peroxide can be used in emergency situations in ponds that are lacking oxygen since it literally puts oxygen directly into the water. I have found Baquacil to be very effective at killing algae and it starts working only after the first couple of treatments. The dosage rate is 1 cup per 1,000 gallons every 3 to 5 days until the algae is under control. Only use Baquacil if algae is present and to bring it in check not to totally eradicate it.
4. There are some natural remedies that work to control algae such as barley straw or liquid barley extract, but you must remember that natural remedies may take longer to start working than chemically treating the algae. If you have animals that drink from the pond then I would suggest a natural treatment verses treating by chemical means.
5. Some methods of manually removing algae are to use a rake to twist it up, a toilet brush, and chimney brush. You simply twist the algae around any of these tools like twisting spaghetti.

Switzerland Country Report
Executive Summary
Operational Outlook
Switzerland's operational environment is likely to remain of a very high standard. With good infrastructure links across Europe, Switzerland is one of the most attractive destinations for foreign businesses in the region. To maintain access to the EU Single Market, the Swiss parliament rejected a law on curbing EU migration, reducing investor uncertainty. Sectors notably affected include pharmaceuticals, financial services, and fast-moving consumer goods industries. Moreover, measures to remove tariffs on imported industrial goods are being implemented. However, the ratification of a new framework agreement reforming EU-Swiss relations has been challenging. Corruption risks in Switzerland will remain low; co-operation with further Europe-wide anti-corruption measures is likely.
The risk of jihadist terrorist attacks is lower in Switzerland than in many other European countries such as Belgium, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom. However, a low-capability attack by a lone actor or small cell inspired by non-state armed groups such as the Islamic State has become more likely over recent years. An anti-radicalisation plan and a set of anti-terrorism measures are likely to bring about increased police powers. Generally, the most likely targets would be public transport, crowded public spaces, security forces, or international organisations, which are mostly based in Geneva.
Switzerland's overall crime levels are likely to remain low. However, organised crime groups, often originating from southeastern Europe, are likely to engage in illegal drug and arms trading, human trafficking, and migrant smuggling. Switzerland has one of the toughest legal systems in the world to fight money laundering, making such criminal activity less likely in the coming years. Cross-border crime affecting Geneva and other areas close to France also poses a continuous challenge to the Swiss authorities.
War Risks
Interstate war risks are highly likely to remain negligible in Switzerland thanks to the country's friendly diplomatic and economic relations with most European countries and many other states around the world. Switzerland is an internally stable country overall that follows the principle of neutrality and faces no external aggression that could lead to war. As a result, the likelihood of a war on Swiss soil will remain very low. Switzerland's armed forces do not engage in conflicts in other countries, but they do participate in international peacekeeping missions.
Health Risk
Vaccinations required to enter the country
No vaccinations are required to enter the country.
Routine Vaccinations
Hepatitis B: A vaccine is available for children at least two months old.
Diphtheria-Tetanus-Polio: A booster shot should be administered if necessary (once every ten years).
Other Vaccinations
Tick-Borne Encephalitis: For stays in rural zones and for hiking enthusiasts (for children over the age of one).
For Children: All standard childhood immunizations should be up-to-date. In the case of a long stay, the BCG vaccine is recommended for children over one month and the MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccine for children over nine months.
Natural Risks
Mountain accidents are regularly reported and there is a risk of avalanches in mountainous areas year round. Between October 1, 2016, and September 30, 2017, seven people were killed in avalanche accidents. Most Western governments advise travelers to purchase search-and-rescue insurance.
Drivers are required to purchase and display a CHF 40 (EUR 25) vignette (sticker) before driving on the country's highways. The vignettes are available for purchase at most border crossing points, gas stations, Swiss Post offices, by phone (+800 1002 0030), and online.
Public transportation - trains, buses, and trams - are of the highest quality.
Practical Information
Switzerland is a mountainous country whose climate is semi-continental with oceanic and sometimes Mediterranean influences. Winters are very cold and summers hot. It rains regularly throughout the year. Temperatures tend to be lower at higher elevations while the north of the country, which has lower elevations, experiences higher temperatures and hotter summers.

ICBC made something like 389 million dollars profit this year. (325 million for 2003) Many are calling for refunds. The decision has not been made yet, they say. Will they do it? ICBC is SUPPOSED to be a non profit enterprise. This public corporation is controlled by Gordon Campbell's liberals. They want to keep ICBC rates as high as possible. Why? Because Gordon Campbell wants to give some of this largess to his friends.
If private insurance companies want to come into BC, our rates are presently too low for them, they cannot compete and make profits ... so ... Gordon needs to keep ICBC rates UP, so that the private companies can be seen to be good for us. So they can come in and be lower than ICBC rates ... IF ICBC rates are artificially kept up.
They will of course, play by their own rules, and try to cherry pick the best clients. They will have no obligation to do otherwise. Which in turn would leave ICBC with all the bad risks. For instance, if Toyota Camrys are the choice of car thiefs, a private company can simply exclude Camry owners as clients. The result of course, will be higher rates at ICBC while the private companies reap high profits without any concern for British Columbians. And you can be sure NONE of those profits will go back into accident research, safe driving programs or such things as bait cars against crime.
Based on Gordon Campbell's record of working against the people of BC, does anyone trust him anymore? Is there a secret document somewhere outlining his plans for his foreign friends? (Like the information that recently came to light showing that the liberals are going to allow private lodges in our public parks?)
At least we have hope that somewhere, somehow, someone ... some liberal who still believes in British Columbians, will leak another document to us.
Sure ICBC is a monopoly, but comparing exact coverage across Canada, no private insurance company can match the rates.

Tip to Maintain Good Posture
Why is good posture important?
Good posture helps us stand, walk, sit, and lie in positions that place the least strain on supporting muscles and ligaments during movement and weight-bearing activities.
Correct posture: • Helps us keep bones and joints in correct alignment so that our muscles are used correctly, decreasing the abnormal wearing of joint surfaces that could result in degenerative arthritis and joint pain. • Reduces the stress on the ligaments holding the spinal joints together, minimizing the likelihood of injury. • Allows muscles to work more efficiently, allowing the body to use less energy and, therefore, preventing muscle fatigue. • Helps prevent muscle strain, overuse disorders, and even back and muscular pain.
To maintain proper posture, you need to have adequate muscle flexibility and strength, normal joint motion in the spine and other body regions, as well as efficient postural muscles that are balanced on both sides of the spine. In addition, you must recognize your postural habits at home and in the workplace and work to correct them, if necessary.

Introduction: Two Half Hitches
The Two Half Hitches is a general purpose hitch used for fastening a rope to a post, branch or any fixed object.
Just like the name suggests this is two half hitches done together. I find it is best to practice on a table.
In the description of tying a knot you will find the terms 'load side' and 'working end'. For those of you that might be learning how to tie a knot for the first time, the 'load side' of a rope is the part of the rope that is not active in knot tying and the 'working end' is the part of the rope that does all the work in knot tying.
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1:
Holding the rope in your left hand take the working end of the rope and make a loose loop to the right around your table leg overlapping the load side of the rope, the working end should be pointing to the left.
Step 2:
Twist the working end under the load side and up though the loop.
Step 3:
With your left hand hold the working end and load side parallel to each other. {Working on right, Load on left}
Step 4:
Below the loop twist the working end under then over the load side into the loop you just created.
Step 5:
Pull on both the load side and working end of the rope to tighten your Two Half Hitches.

What you got there is actually a reversed hitch. I know that the Ashley book of knots states it as an ok knot, but many of his peers, as well as I, disagree with him. This is a knot that tends to slip when jerked around (as on a boat, for example). Better to tie the second half hitch the opposite way from your pictures.
hubbe, for boating I agree this is a useless knot because it can become undone like you state when jerked around but it does serve a purpose in securing objects around the house {clothing line} or in a camping or survival situation {one side of a line between two trees to drape your trap over for a tent}. I would not use it to secure any object that can shift/move around.
As far as the name while growing up in the Cub Scouts & Boys Scouts back then they called it a double half hitch, now I see they are calling it two half hitches. I have also found information making your point as well. It seems to come down to who taught who on what side the working end is to the load side of the rope when starting. With
that in mind I will change the name to what the Boy Scouts are currently calling
it "Two Half Hitches".
Thank you for your comment.
Just as with everything taught from person to person names and methods tend to vary. Thank you for a nice instructable.

Corpus Christi Church is one of eight churches in the Diocese of Buffalo to be chosen as a pilgrimage site during the Jubilee Year of Mercy.
On March 20, Palm Sunday, a ceremonial Opening of the Holy Door of Mercy will take place at 11 a.m. at Corpus Christi. Fr. Michał Czyżewski, Administrator, invites all Catholics in the Diocese to the ceremony, which will be followed by a special Mass celebrated in English and in Polish.
"Here, then, is the reason for the Jubilee: because this is the time for mercy. It is the favorable time to heal wounds…", said Pope Francis, adding "By Crossing the threshold of the Holy Door, we will find the strength to embrace God's mercy and dedicate ourselves to being merciful with others as the Father has been with us."
"I am the Door" Jesus said (Jn 10:7). Passing through a Holy Door symbolizes our leaving the world outside and entering into the realm of salvation. John Paul II said," it invokes the passage from sin into grace which every Christian is called to accomplish".
Passing through a Holy Door and consciously performing five Conditions lets us experience and receive a "plenary indulgence". A plenary indulgence lessens the effects of our sin here on earth. "To gain an indulgence is to experience the holiness of the Church, who bestows upon all the fruits of Christ's redemption, so that God's love and forgiveness may extend everywhere. Let us live this Jubilee intensely; begging the Father to forgive our sins and to bathe us in His merciful "indulgence" explains Pope Francis.
The Five Conditions are: experiencing the Sacrament of Reconciliation, Receiving Holy Communion, praying for the Pope, rejecting the attachment to sin and passage through a Holy Door.
Corpus Christi Church is located one block from the Broadway Market, at 199 Clark St. in Buffalo. Ample parking is available. For more information about Holy Week and Easter at Corpus Christi Church, call 896-1050, or visit the Parish website at CorpusChristiBuffalo.org.

Head-on crash in Sag Harbor, injured drivers airlifted, police say
A car drifted into oncoming traffic Tuesday morning in Sag Harbor and slammed into an oncoming vehicle, Southampton Town police said.
"He stated he fell asleep," spokeswoman Lt. Susan Ralph said of the driver.

Both drivers were airlifted to Stony Brook University Hospital, she said.
A hospital spokesman said both have been discharged.

Live Music
Danielle Ponder
When Danielle Ponder and the Tomorrow People hit the stage things get torqued up quickly like a tent revival during tornado season. Danielle Ponder and the Tomorrow People transcend musical genres with a blast of deep, powerful groove and soul. The band is the groove while Ponder's pipes keep it rooted in soul. And according to Ponder, soul is more than a sound.
'Soul music is something you feel', she says. 'It gives you goosebumps'. This Rochester, NY native has spent the past ten years rendering goosebumps by perfecting her style and charismatic performance. It is this voice that has helped her secure gigs opening up for powerhouses such as George Clinton, Ledisi and The Roots. This daughter of a preacher takes the audience to church, as she dances across stage and belts out her notes, it's clear that her gospel roots have had a strong influence. This sensational singer also lists powerful influences that lit her fuse like Nina Simone, Big Mama Thornton, Koko Taylor, and Lauryn Hill. Danielle is backed by Rez Ponder on drums, Denise Reese on guitar, and Avis Reese on the keys.

Exotic Tours to Ladakh
If you're an active holidaymaker looking to avoid the more conventional European ski trip or UK based adventure holidays then look no further than the beautiful Indian region of Ladakh. With established trekking routes, white water rafting and mountaineering to challenge both the experienced and amateur thrill seekers, the stunning landscape of Ladakh and its surrounding regions really can offer everything.
However, this trans-himalayan region does not only cater for the more daring of traveller. Ladakh is home to some of the most beautiful and serene monasteries you will ever see. There are 5 major monasteries around Ladakh's capital town of Leh and they can all be covered in one day. The most important of them are Thiksey, Hemis, Spituk, Stok and Shey. All 5 can be visited on one of the many available tours provided in the region.
Leh is an excellent base to stay and soak up all the cultural aspects of Ladakh. With a range of guest houses and restaurants it is not only the capital of Ladakh, but also the main hub for backpackers and holidaymakers alike. If Kashmiri is what you're looking for, then this is the place to be, with markets full of Kashmiri traders.
The mountainous region of Ladakh is a land of rich natural beauty – vast empty spaces with townships dotted sporadically – it's this barren beauty that hits you hard. Be respectful because these are holy places with active monks living amongst the lands.
A great benefit of such vast open spaces is the diverse natural wildlife on show. The mountains play host to a number of rare creatures including the Tibetan Wolf, the Lynx, the Brown Bear and perhaps most impressive of all, the Snow Leopard. Although you are incredibly unlikely to see the Snow leopard yourself (there are thought to only be 200 in the entire Lamakh region), visit in winter to get the best chance as this is the time the big cats descend the mountains in search of prey.
There are many established tours ranging from 4-9+ days. Included in these tours are airport transfers to the hotel where you will stay to acclimatise yourself to the altitude, followed by daily excursions to the famed monasteries, lakes, hot springs and mountain ranges. You are fully taken care of with all meals and travel provided. All you need to do book via www.lehladakhtours.com or similar tour providers using your AMERICAN EXPRESS CARD and look forward to a truly unique holiday experience in one of India's most inspiring locations.

Advocates for a publicly financed, universal system of primary health care are trying again to advance the initiative after it stalled in the state Legislature last year.
H.129, which was introduced last week, calls for a universal primary care system to be in place by 2023.
Many questions remain, including how the state would pay for such a system. But Rep. Brian Cina, P/D-Burlington and the bill's lead sponsor, said public financing is critical to ensuring universal access to preventative care.
"By investing in universal primary care, we can improve population health and save lives and save money," Cina said.
The current push for universal primary care has roots in Act 48, the sweeping 2011 health care law that said the state "must ensure universal access to and coverage for high-quality, medically necessary health services for all Vermonters."

Secret Conservative Death Camps
19 Sep 2011
I like reading the National Post's Full Comment section although I must confess that I'm not as big a fan when they just post a series of Christopher Hitchens essays.
Still, Kelly McParland had an excellent piece–dripping with sarcasm that many of her commenters do not seem to understand–on Stephen Harper's plans for the next Parliament:
Stephen Harper finally has the moment we've been waiting for, the one where he whips out the file with the Top Secret stamp and the padlock on the cover, produces the key from his pocket and reveals to the world his Hidden Agenda.
It's kind of hard to campaign against Stephen Harper by saying, "he will, gradually and without much fanfare, do exactly what he says that he will". Especially difficult when most Canadians can't be bothered to muster any sort of emotional response to his last five years as Prime Minister. Baring a scandal or some major political realignment, I think that Harper will stay Prime Minister until he decides to retire from politics.

Nestled along the Illinois River, Starved Rock State Park is a favorite destination no matter the season—nearly 2.5 million people visit each year. This National Historic Landmark boasts a landscape filled with tall bluffs, elegant trees, and wildflower-adorned hills, perfect for the adventurer inside us all.
In Starved Rock State Park: An Illinois Treasure, photographers Lee Mandrell and DeeDee Niederhouse-Mandrell showcase the beauty and grandeur of this Illinois state park. With photos of twisting forest trails, plunging canyons, and lakes veiled in mist, they uncover this land piece by piece. Hike to take in the view at Lover's Leap Overlook or relish the waterfalls that come roaring out from canyons with names like "Wildcat" and "St. Louis." Come explore this park thriving with life. From hawks soaring across crisp blue skies and snakes slinking over bramble to folksy log cabins and meadows of black-eyed Susans, there is a little something for everyone.
With 120 high-quality color photos and an appreciation of the finer details in life, Starved Rock State Park will transport you to a land rich with history and wonder.
For Lee Mandrell, photography began as a hobby that quickly ignited into a fiery passion and then into a lifelong career. He started out at age 14 with a secondhand Minolta Hi-Matic E Rangefinder. Mandrell worked as a custom darkroom technician in a professional lab for years and was eventually promoted to production manager. An early adopter of both digital technology and Photoshop, he was actively involved in all current photography techniques and practices. He is author of Indianapolis: The Circle City and coauthor of The Great Smoky Mountains: A Visual Journey, Indiana Across the Land, Illinois Across the Land, and Illinois State Parks.
DeeDee Niederhouse-Mandrell's interest in the art of photography began over 25 years ago. What started out as a hobby eventually turned into a paying photography job—she is now the principal photographer for the Ray Skillman Corporation. After several years, Niederhouse-Mandrell became the corporation's creative photography manager for their upper-end magazine advertisements. She is coauthor of The Great Smoky Mountains: A Visual Journey, Indiana Across the Land, Illinois Across the Land, and Illinois State Parks.

First Look: Unreal Tournament 4 Public Alpha
While we didn't get a chance to do our co-op game with Fedzski, one of our chat members for the stream let me know that there was a functional Unreal Tournament Alpha available to play with. There is no way I could pass that up.
The new Unreal Tournament is still in a very early alpha stage, you have to use a 3rd party tool to even connect to a server at this point, but that doesn't make it any less true to form. We hit shock combos, we had a nice little no scope combo kill streak, and we finished off the night with a tour of the new Deck 16, where the Redeemer is still going strong.
For an early phase game, there is a ton of promise here and things are hopefully only going to get better. Check out our first look and if you want to dive in yourselves you can head here for the game files and here for the launcher.

A GRAMMAR BUILT WITH ROCKS—a two-part group exhibition at Human Resources and ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives at the USC Libraries, curated by Shoghig Halajian and Suzy Halajian—"presents artistic practices that trace the racialized and gendered relationship between bodies and land, and question narratives of socioecological crisis that contribute to the displacement and erasure of people and collective formations.
"The project appropriates its title from Édouard Glissant's writings, as it looks to the ways in which the landscape contains, unfolds, and narrates its own history."*
In a related program, Jumana Manna's WILD RELATIVES (2018) will screen at Redcat in December.

Okwui Enwezor, director of Haus der Kunst, welcomes artists Sonia Boyce and Ellen Gallagher, DIA curator Courtney J. Martin, artists and filmmakers Isaac Julien and Steve McQueen, and professors J. Michael Dash and David Scott to THE SEA IS HISTORY—ART AND BLACK ATLANTIC CULTURES.
This symposium—moderated by Mark Nash and Allison Thompson—examines "the intersection of the artistic, theoretical, literary, and cultural dimensions" in the work of Frank Bowling, the Guyanese-born, London-based artist whose work is "deeply connected to, and inflected by Édouard Glissant's notion of a 'Caribbean Discourse'—the idea that the entire critical literature and art created within the historical complex of the Black Atlantic is an ongoing process of philosophical reflection."*
THE SEA IS HISTORY—ART AND BLACK ATLANTIC CULTURES, Friday, October 20, 11 am to 7 pm.

Hmmm... a 'xxx-Holic' doujinshi. Dare I hope for Yuko/Himawa--- OH GOD NO!
Whew. Actually, it's a nice, non-explicit story. It could have been much worse. Hell, CLAMP has put out much worse.
Yea finding a straight paring with those two elements is like adding anime and club together and not expecting fail.
With a name like... I think it translates to 'Let's begin our xxx', it could have been much worse. The art is fairly nice for a doujin. It's certainly no where as detailed as the original work, but is more organic.
And you'd think I'd know better. When I think of CLAMP doujin, I think of Sakura and Tomoyo
Wow what's xxx-holic? Is it a person who is obsessed with sex or porn?
it's more like a "blank" than xxx. That's just the title. The various people they encounter have addictions like lying or internet addictions etc. That's not really all that happens, but whatever. find out for yourself.

Guide to Gourmet Coffee and Coffee Making by Cara Batema

ABOUT THE BOOK As the worlds most used (and abused) substance, coffee is a drink most people have indulged in. In fact, for many people, drinking coffee is a daily ritual; quite often, we do not stop to think about what we are drinking. While you might not wish to rise to the level of coffee snob, you might be curious to know more about the gourmet coffee you drink: how to find the best gourmet coffee, brew and taste the perfect cup, or even how to roast your own beans. While almost anyone recognizes roasted beans, very few people know where they come from, or what processes go into creating them. Coffee comes from a coffee tree; cherries grow on the trees branches, and each cherry holds two beans. You might have noticed the word arabica or robusta on a bag of coffee; these words refer to the type of tree from which the beans come. From the tree, the berries are harvested and dried. Any defective beans are removed. Certain types of beans, like peaberry beans, are viewed as defects, but are also harvested for particular styles of coffee. MEET THE AUTHOR Cara Batema holds a Bachelor's degree in music and creative writing. Cara composes scores and performs for films in addition to writing and editing children's novels and other publications. Cara loves food, wine, fashion, bike riding, and other general artsy diversions. Subscribe to Cara's Los Angeles Coffee Examiner page or follow on Twitter @indiesmitty. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK The history of coffee begins with a legend from the Ethiopian highlands. Kaldi, a goat-herder, discovered that he would feed certain berries to his goats, and they became restless and would not sleep. Kaldi brought the berries to a local monastery, and the monks made a drink from the berries that allowed them to stay awake for long hours of prayer. The power of the berries spread towards the East and finally around the globe. Even todays coffee is traced back to the original coffee trees from the Ethiopian highland region. As early as the fifteenth century, coffee was grown in Arabia, and by the sixteenth century, they were trading with nearby areas such as Egypt, Turkey, Syria, and Persia. Coffee was consumed in homes and coffee houses alike. These cafes were much like they are today; they served as the locale for public events, social gatherings, and live music performances. Since Muslims did not drink alcohol, coffee was known as wine of the Araby. Word of coffee spread to Europe by the seventeenth century. Critics called it the bitter invention of Satan, but Pope Clement VIII gave it the papal seal of approval after trying it. Coffee houses in England, Germany, Austria, Holland, and France held a similar significance as those in Arabia, and by the mid-1600s, the love of coffee was brought to America.

We let the dog out!
I know we said that Horsemen of the Commonwealth was going to be our inaugural title… and it still technically is. But… in the process of rolling out Widget Interactive we realized that our parent company had already taken one tiny step into the gaming space. So, we decided to put all our gaming properties under one roof! Anyone out there using WatchDog? Well, it's ours now and it's updated!
Along with the migration of WatchDog to Widget Interactive we did a quick audit and realized that it was a teensy bit outdated. The last available version was built against Spigot 1.9 (we're now on 1.10.2)! So, a rebuild was in order! And along with that rebuild, a new feature!
In the early days of WatchDog, a user commented that it would be nice to allow people who had the
watchdog.statusupdates permission the option of enabling/disabling the notifications on demand. Well now you can! Watchdog now has a
notify command through which you can check your current notification status, and enable or disable whenever you want! Enjoy!

Effect of propofol and remifentanil on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation in pigs: a systematic review
Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Review › Forskning › fagfællebedømt
- Effect of propofol and remifentanil on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation in pigs
Forlagets udgivne version, 761 KB, PDF-dokument
The objective of this review is to evaluate the existing literature with regard to the influence of propofol and remifentanil total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation in healthy pigs. Anaesthesia has influence on cerebral haemodynamics and it is important not only in human but also in veterinary anaesthesia to preserve optimal regulation of cerebral haemodynamics. Propofol and remifentanil are widely used in neuroanaesthesia and are increasingly used in experimental animal studies. In translational models, the pig has advantages compared to small laboratory animals because of brain anatomy, metabolism, neurophysiological maturation, and cerebral haemodynamics. However, reported effects of propofol and remifentanil on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation in pigs have not been reviewed. An electronic search identified 99 articles in English. Title and abstract screening selected 29 articles for full-text evaluation of which 19 were excluded with reasons. Of the 10 peer-reviewed articles included for review, only three had propofol or remifentanil anaesthesia as the primary study objective and only two directly investigated the effect of anaesthesia on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation (CPO). The evidence evaluated in this systematic review is limited, not focused on propofol and remifentanil and possibly influenced by factors of potential importance for CPO assessment. In one study of healthy pigs, CPO measures were within normal ranges following propofol-remifentanil anaesthesia, and addition of a single remifentanil bolus did not affect regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2). Even though the pool of evidence suggests that propofol and remifentanil alone or in combination have limited effects on CPO in healthy pigs, confirmative evidence is lacking.

(Videographer, speaking off camera) I'm just going to do a clap, just to sync the sound later. Don't be alarmed. (sound of hands clapping) (Interviewer, speaking off camera) So, maybe just start, you can just introduce yourself, you know, who you are,
where you're from, what you like to do? Jason: (laughs) Jason: Hi, I'm Jason. I am in recovery from drugs,
alcohol, gambling. In the past I thought that gambling and drinking and drugs
were my problem, but they were really just a solution to move the empty void
that I felt inside of myself, and they would make me numb. I find that
connecting with people that have the same issues, they can actually understand
me, or they may not understand, but they can appreciate what I'm going
through, and give me advice to go through it. I am able to reach out and just help
other people, maybe not find a solution for themselves, but I can at
least be there to help them back up if they do fall, or to keep
them stabilized when they're feeling weaker. Just they need an extra hand to
just be supportive, to know that they're not alone. We have seven billion
people on this planet. There's no reason to be alone. But it's the first time my room's
actually decently organized in my entire life. It's because I actually have a room
now instead of just living on the streets. And, yeah, it's like actually like
organized and clean, and just it's my own little area,
but just, it's nice. We had a boarder living with us, and I'd
get this guy, like he said, I could scratch the scratch ticket, and if
anything got won he'd split it with me, and like $26 was won, and I never
got to see that $13 or whatever, but I realized, "Hey, you can win money! I can spend $3
and I can win a whole bunch more money!" Because for an eight-year-old,
like 26 bucks, that's a lot of candy. Gambling could bring me extra money. I
didn't think there was actually losses, because if I lose on a scratch ticket, I
lose $3. If I win, I could win 50 grand or whatever, and I think I wasn't
looking at the fact that $3 turns into six, which strings into 12, which turns into
24 then 48, then eventually you've spent 500 bucks,
and you know that that's my rent, and I'm gonna spend 75 grand before I win the 50. And I started in a bowling league, which
because I used to bowl, and I teach it and now it's like, that's what I
do, like that's my Tuesday night, as I go bowling in a league, so it's fun, and it's
just, it's nice. Something from before, before I got really deep into
screwing my life up. That's how I went on a Tuesday, cuz I had a little bit of
money, I'd go on Tuesday, and then I like I'd lose for a couple days, so I wouldn't
go for a week, and then like a night think I was doing good I'm like, okay I
can go back, and then I'd go and I'd win so I'd go back the next day, and say I
won 200 bucks on Friday. On Monday I'd be going there assuming I'm gonna win
again and lose 300 bucks. And it just it was just a deadly, no, it was just a
horrible cycle of, over a few years of … It wasn't an everyday thing, but there were
times when I was going everyday. Once I'm there, time doesn't seem to exist. The
amount of money, I always assume I can win my money back, and once it's gone
I'm done, like I get so depressed. It's like somebody else takes over my body
and I'm looking at, I will be sitting there with chips in front of me, knowing
that I have to pay my rent and I'm like, okay, I should really leave, I should
really leave I should really … oh, but what if, just what if this is the next, I could
win this, this big one. If this next spin like, and I'll be thinking about that,
I'll be thinking, this next spin could be that big win that I need to make
me happy, to make me excited. I want to get the tattoo of Yoda that
says, "do or do not: there is no try", just as a reminder that you gotta like,
you have to do things, you can't just think about it. It's about trusting that
there's a way to overcome this huge dominating issue in one's life,
in my life. Admitting to where I was wrong, owning up,
facing the fact that yes, I realized that I had made all these mistakes that may
seem huge and life-changing, and it's helped me a lot, because I can actually
make it through a day without wanting to gamble. I can make it through a day
without wanting to do these things. I don't need immediate gratification anymore.
I don't need to go and watch the flashing lights, or do other, put other
substances in my body. I don't need to numb myself, because I don't have a
reason to numb myself anymore. I can go, okay today, I didn't go, and I didn't rob
somebody, I didn't steal 20 bucks from the old lady's purse, I didn't steal, I
didn't lie to my mom saying I needed groceries just so I can go and do this.
I didn't do anything that will sit heavy on my conscience now.
So I can actually make it through. It's not easy. It's just, it's a nice feeling, not
have to worry about things that I did. I have to worry about now is what I'm
going to do, and it's not even really worrying, it's I can plan now,
and make the right choices for my life. Got my friend's daughter some Christmas
– two Christmas presents, because she's an awesome little kid. Just being able to
get gifts for like, friends and stuff is nice. It could really be whatever you
want it to because it still wrapped up. If you can't afford to lose it, don't bet. And if you need to reach out or talk to
somebody, just make that call. It doesn't… there's so many help lines just
just, even reaching out to anybody. And if somebody needs help, just to do something
small, there's an old you just wanna go and go gamble because of but do
something because you don't feel good about yourself, or you just need
something to do the filters because you can't deal with the mind. But you do some
service just help the old guy Ricky sleeves around the corner. Help, do
something the doctor find something that you enjoy to do with your time, cuz money
is easy come easy go but you don't have to go and throw it away. You don't have
to make somebody else rich. The trades, I don't overly know. I can drywall. I can roof. I did a little bit of roofing and stuff, so
it's just to improve my skill so I can do something like
to have a little certificate or whatever to help get a job in it. And apparently you get
paid for this one trade school, so … I want to start getting into having
something planned, and getting a better schedule, so I want to, like, look into
even a part-time. I'm working occasionally, but I want to get into,
something like daily, like get it back into school, or getting into dog
walking or something. I want to start getting back into the flow of having
something to do Monday to Friday and having a proper functioning schedule.
It's the little things that are successful. If I remember to
make my bed, to do all these little things in my life, I consider that a
success. I don't have, I can wake up in the house with the roof
over my head now, I'm not waking up behind the garbage can. I'm not thinking
I'm cancer so I can afford to go and eat. I'm not begging for change anymore.
That to me is a success. I believe that the universe of God has a special plan
and if I went to all that all the experiences I went to know my even if
they were troublesome for me if I can turn those around and be of help to
somebody else to help them get better then it's a positive, then it's a
positive experience, it's a positive thing, now. Yeah.

It is no surprise that Jio is the 'World's largest Data Network' based on Mobile Data consumption. It has become a sensational hit ever since its inception. Users are increasing day by day and so does the sales. Even a common person who is not used to using internet services are more into surfing these days and thanks to Jio.
It has completely changed the way we think. It offers internet, free Local and STD calls, free (incoming and outgoing calls) to any network anywhere in India based on their subscriptions. This is why most people use Jio. Not just Jio SIMs, people use JioPhones and 4G personal hotspots as well. They are affordable and cutting-edge devices that satisfy the needs of the customers.
Following the huge success of Jio SIMs, Jio Phone, Jio Hotspot, Reliance Industries (RIL) chairman and managing director Mukesh Ambani launched JioGigaFiber at RIL's 41st annual general meeting (AGM) eight months ago.
Over a period of two years, the company has been offering sensational offers to its customers like data benefits and recharge coupons. Last year, the company graced its first anniversary with a Celebration Pack and on the occasion of its second anniversary, the company wishes to bring back the Jio Celebration Pack with new benefits.
Reliance Jio is now offering the Jio Celebration Pack to its subscribers for free of cost. So far, a few Jio subscribers reported that they received the pack automatically added to their data plan while many still haven't received the Celebration Pack so far.
If you are not sure of whether you have received the Celebration Pack or not, you just have to go to the MyJio app on your smartphone and navigate to the My Plans section. If the app shows the Jio Celebration Pack on top of all the other activated plans, you should be able to get the benefits.
The Celebration Pack offers 2GB of data per day to Jio subscribers valid until March 17, 2019. However, the pack doesn't specifically mention voice calls and SMS. But what if you haven't received the Celebration Pack?
To check whether you have received the Celebration Pack or not, you should go to the MyJio app and enter the My Plans section. If the Celebration Pack doesn't appear in the My Plans section, you will just have to wait until you receive the benefit automatically. As of now, there is no way through which one can activate the plan manually or register for the Celebration Pack.

What?! Magazine takes a look at 3 make-up artist that made a noise over fashion week.
James Riley key make-up artist for Louise Gray gave us a witty, colorfully, playfulness with his make-up design.
It put me in mind of Damien Hirst, Colour dots.

When looking at all the models together they where as much alike as they where dissimilar.
For art to be meaningful, captivating and ultimately worth looking at, it should touch the viewer in some way, appeal to a memory, feeling or idea.
James Riley's work, took me to that moment of childish play, where the eyes widen with excitement, where color is concerned. Seeing all the models together was an interesting and stimulating experience.
Ben Heine
3-D dimensional appearance made up with dots
Alex Box
The art from of paper cutting, Kirgami is as diverse as any art from.
As Alex Box showed us with her innovative make-up design for Gareth Pugh which involved cutting metallic laser like paper which was then glued under the eyes.
The bespoke blue paper was retroreflective that turned pure white when the light hit it.
The make-up complimented this new collection beautifully.
Pat McGrath
Coca –cola and Andy Warhol pop art are just a few thoughts that spring to mind when watching the Viktor and Rolf show.

Pat Mcgrath sent models down the catwalk with a striking hot red face worked in a classic way.
What I love about Pat is her ability to refocus and revise application depending on the collection and designer she is working with at the time.
