Usually weekends in school are very quiet with no one around, but on the night of the 15th June 2013 Woodland Primary School was a hive of activity with the children taking part in our Annual Giant Sleepover. This has been an Annual Event in school for the past 4 years, and it is one of the highlights of the childrens year, and the parents! who get a night away from their children.
This year the children were sponsored to sleepover in school and take part in a variety of activities and raise money for UNICEF and school.
The evenings activities started with staff, children and parents etc taking part in a family quiz and games followed by bingo and then a supper. Parents left at 8.30pm and the children and staff then settled down in their pyjamas to watch a bedtime film. Lights were out at 10.00pm and the school began to settle down, with a little bit of talking, giggling and snoring!!
The next morning the children were up very early! The children had their first breakfast at 7.30am then took part in the Minty Mouth Wash Challenge. Later the parents were invited in for a cooked breakfast as a special treat for Fathers Day.

I'm a mother who has a daughter attending a junior high school. The other day there was something wrong with her. I didn't know about a trouble between her and her friend because she didn't talk about it in detail. My daughter has got bullied a little before. So I was put on the alert at first. But this time I was a little bit different from what I used to be.
- daughter 娘
- attend 出席する
- there is something wrong with A Aはどこかおかしい
- got bullied いじめられる
- be put on the alert 警戒する
- at first 最初は
- what I used to be 以前の私
I used to blame a bully, but this time I was able to think that it's time for her to be tested for her development. And I was grateful for it. I wondered if this trouble was a kind of punishment for what we did. And I was sure this trouble would make both of us grow up.
- blame 責める
- bully いじめっこ
- test 試す
- wonder if S+V SはVするのかしらと思う
- punishment 罰
When holding a memorial service for my ancestors, I transmitted my gratitude to them. And offering a third incense stick, I said to the spirits of her friend's ancestors "Thank you so much for telling us a lot of important things." Is this strange? On the same day, my daughter came back home and told me that she was able to spend the day with her as usual. She looked cheerful. I was happy to see her smile, thinking that nothing compares to a child's smile. I hope they will get along well with each other.
- transmit 伝える
- gratitude 感謝の気持ち
- strange 奇妙な
- as usual いつものように
- nothing compares to A Aに匹敵するものはない
In such a case, should I be grateful for the friend ? I just wanna grow up more for the sake of her, too. Thanks to you, I've come to understand what it is like to be grateful.
- get along well with A Aと仲良くやっていく
- for the sake of A Aのために
- thanks to A Aのお蔭で
- come to~ 〜するようになる
- what it is like to be~ 〜であるとはどういうことか
Such troubles are not punishments but stimuli for the development of a soul which can be only experienced as long as humans live. If you're determined to accept those troubles in spite of anxiety, they will soon be over. There is no karma thing about this case, so just live strong. When you offer a third incense stick, it is very effective for you to be grateful to the friend's ancestors spiritually speaking.
- stimuli 刺激
- development 発達
- as long as S+V SがVする限り
- humans 人間
- be determined to~ 〜する決心をしている
- accept 受け入れる
- in spite of A Aにも関わらず
- be over 終わる
- effective 効果的な
To be sure it is also effective to say to them "Is your offspring doing the right thing?" in your heart, but to be grateful to them is the best way because it has no side effects on you and the other. To admonish your daughter and her friend could make the trouble more complicated. It is much more effective than you think to offer gratitude to the friend and her ancestors in silence.
- to be sure 確かに
- offspring 子孫
- side effect 副作用
- admonish 注意する
- complicated 複雑な
- in silence 無言で

easter sunday fun
i know it usually takes me about a year and a half to get pics from my camera uploaded, edited and blogged, but i just couldn't wait to get these little faces at our easter picnic yesterday up on the screen ASAP!
it's been an interesting and often difficult chapter in our life as we face many tough decisions and exciting changes, but as we celebrated easter this weekend, i was reminded of all that i have to be thankful for. because of Christ's perfect life, death, and resurrection i can rejoice and rest confidently in His never-changing and super-abundant love and mercy through whatever the future brings.
the kiddos had a blast "finding" easter eggs and hopefully as they get older they'll be able to see past the jelly beans and reese's peanut butter cups [that mom has been enjoying while they sleep] to see Christ and the true joy He brings.

On June 21, 2016, St. Teresa's entered the world of radio broadcasting with the sign-on of a low-powered FM radio station (101.3) dedicated to ministering to and serving parishioners and non-parishioners alike in the Albany area. The call letters of WTOA (Teresa of Avila) were chosen to honor our parish's patron saint.
From the start, WTOA-LP has carried the full schedule of EWTN Radio programming. In October 2018, we began broadcasting our own locally produced ST. TERESA'S ON THE AIR (STOA on WTOA). Host Steve Preston interviews Fr. Ray as well as other people of the parish to keep the listener informed about the goings-on at St. Teresa's. The program is heard Sunday mornings at 9:30, Wednesday evenings at 9:30, and Saturday afternoons at 4:00.
Listen to interviews from STOA on WTOA. (In order to minimize file sizes, only the actual interview portions of the episodes are presented here. Be sure to tune in to WTOA to listen to the complete STOA on WTOA broadcasts!)

|Trust me, you cannot storage them as easily once assembled
|These will look nice alongside my previous ones
|They'll have to look like a mine corridor
|I added some bits for flavour
|Then it was DAS putty time
|But worry not, I didn't forget about detailing
|I think of fertility goddesses, kind of the Venus of Willendorf...

|A pregnant Genestealer mother goddess primitive icon. Deal with it
|Always in our memory. Do not forget. Praise the four arms mother, wife of the Patriarch
|Not exactly the same, but they work together

Well friends, here we are- our 9th Anniversary Celebration is only 4 days away! After all this work- all the calls, emails and trips to get auction items, sponsorship search, guest speaker hunt, etc. we are in the home stretch. Things are in a good place. However, I am filled with anxiety as usual. I have a headache that keeps coming and going and I don't get headaches very often and I've been having anxiety dreams. My biggest concern is event turnout- it is always an issue. You can have the best auction items in the world, but if you don't have many people there to bid on them, then it doesn't help. Last year, we raised $9,000, so hopefully we will meet that again. I've been working on following up with everyone I invited and posting the event in different places. I've also been asking people who are attending to bring friends, coworkers, etc. The weather is looking decent for Friday which is good. I'm doing everything I can and I'll keep working on getting people to show up. We are almost done with bid sheets. I was up until 3:30am last night working on them and some other things related to the event. Tonight, I did the slideshow of calendar photos that we play during the event. A friend of mine borrows a projector from his office and we use that to play the slideshow. He has helped do that for the past few years and it is always a big help. The guests love to see the slideshow. I added a few photos from our donations this year to the slideshow as well.
I picked up 3 more auction items today. I have two more to pick up this week- one on Wednesday in Providence and the other, hopefully tomorrow in Milford. Tomorrow, one of our board members who has done an awesome job in getting items, will be dropping off items here. I've given up on chasing down anymore auction items. There are a number of people who promised items that I'm having major difficulty getting a hold of. Since we are only 4 days away, I need to stop trying to get the items. It always happens this way. The good thing is that I can rest assured that I did everything possible to try to actually get the items.
I have two grants that I need to work on, but I'm not sure how much time I'll be able to spend this week on them. I will spend some time on it,but the major focus of the week is getting ready for Friday and following up with people to get them to attend. I also got word that Patrick Kennedy who is running for Congress will be stopping by our event, which is great news!
Well, that's the latest for tonight. Tomorrow, the goal is to get all the bid sheets finished, test the credit card machine and get a bunch of the other small details taken care of for the event. (live auction signs, stuffed animal decorations and other items to display at event) I also need to write my speech for the event and of course work on event attendance. I think I'll head to bed early- this headache is coming back. Until tomorrow friends...

Crazy Easy Walnut Fudge
When I say crazy easy, I'm in no way joking. I've never made fudge before and, even when I thought it was burned, it really wasn't and it turned out delicious. I mean, how can you go wrong with that?

the fuckers stole my 1 gallon bells whisky bottle which was ~1/3rd full of loose change 🙁
i've had that bottle since i was a kid.

When I got burgled in my last house they took my housemate's can of pennies, extremely heavy and probably worth about 50p. I think he found that the most annoying thing of all.
On the other hand, the image of you, as a kid, downing a 1 gallon bottle of whisky is at least amusing.

Pictures speaking louder than words again, hope to finish the fulling process later this afternoon! Please excuse the poor quality of the photos taken inside but I did want to share the various stages of this project and it has proved difficult to get clear pictures depending on what time of day the images were taken.
Tag Archives: fulling
Almost there fulling the rug!
At last I feel as if I am starting to get somewhere fulling Sylvia's large felt rug. Measurements as of this afternoon are 1.67m X 2.67m so 17cm width ways and 17cm lengthways and finally the rug will be the required size!!! No time to write any more but picturers to follow tomorrow morning and answers to some of the questions people have been asking me here and on Facebook.
My new felt hat and a couple of book recommendations if you are interested in hats!
Inspired by fellow Feltmakers Ireland member Sharon Wells, I decided to have another go at making myself a soft but structured felt hat that actually fits my very small head. Sharon posted about making the origami hat from Christine White's book Uniquely Felt on Feltcreative and since this project has always been on my 'to do' list and I had a pile of prefelt waiting to be used I decided the time had come to just give it a go! In addition to Uniquely Felt the books that I would recommend for anyone wanting a bit more info about felting hats are 'Fabulous Felt Hats' by Chad Alice Hagen, 'Filtning, Nunofilt & Nalefiltflor' by Grete Lottrup and 'Felting Fashion' by Lizzie Houghton. While Chad Alice's book is the only one totally dedicated to hats all of them to my mind have helped me work out the various steps necessary to create stylish headgear that actually fits and is wearable.
Like Sharon I decided to work with a square resist 47cm wide. One of my friends actually has my copy of Uniquely Felt so I just had to estimate how much wool I would need for each side, excluding the prefelt I used a total of 84g short fibred merino for the hat but have no idea if that is a lot or a little! I laid out the wool extremely finely on both sides of the resist and then laid my prefelt shapes randomly on top making sure to overlap the edges in some places. Because I originally intended having a brim that would turn back to reveal hand dyed silk fibres from the bottom of the other side, I chose not to position any prefelt overlapping the fourth edge as I was afraid I would forget exactly where the silk was once I started working the felt!
Due to my golf club commitments over the last few days (and I STILL have another golfing engagment tomorrow) I had to felt the hat over several different sessions and this afternoon I was able to finish fulling and shaping it over one of my cooking bowls. Unfortunately, although I do have a hat block it is just too huge for my own head but the bowl worked perfectly so nothing ventured nothing gained.
It did take a long time to shrink this hat enough to fit my head so the next one that I make (and there will be another one!) will have a wedge shaped template, not a square. The other outcome with fulling as much as I did is that the clarity of the prefelt gets muted and the silk almost disappears into the wool, not a problem but definitely something to consider. In the end I decided that I liked the brim folded inside of the hat instead of outside as initially intended, it would of course be possible to wear it both ways anyway! If you are interested in seeing any more views of the hat in progress I have uploaded them to Flickr and as soon as the hat is dry I might ask Alan to take a picture of me wearing it! Tomorrow is another day and I hope to crystalise plans for my American workshops and spend some time answering emails and generally catching up with things.
The last day of our wonderful complex bag workshop
Sunday was the second and final day of our complex bag workshop and the end of three brilliant days felting with Lyda Rump. Because Cristina and I had worked well into Sunday morning to complete our bags we had a great opportunity to try something else whilst watching Elaine and Carmen's bags taking shape as they felted and fulled. I decided to make a small felt vessel which had been in my mind for a while and Lyda showed me how to design the template to give me the result I was aiming for. Sometimes another brain or a bit of lateral thinking makes all the difference because I would have used a round resist myself and cut the opening down the middle in a wave, Lyda suggested an oval resist with a wavy top edge and this proved to be an entirely better option. What it is to have artistic ability combined with years of experience!
Carmen and Elaine worked on the various parts of their bags by rolling, pulling, stretching and spot fulling with a felting mouse. When the bags were almost finished they were rinsed thoroughly in clear water and then put to drain in my washing machine with a towel to add a bit of friction and weight. Doing this does not shrink the felt any further but it does remove a significiant amount of water and then you can work the felt further if you want or just stretch to shape and leave it to dry if you are happy that it is fulled enough.
I don't have a picture yet of Carmen's finished bag as she decided to do the final shaping at home and felt a beautiful scarf during the last hour or so of the afternoon. More about this in my next post and also some discussion about the various handle options when creating a felt bag.
I would like to say a really big thank you all for leaving such lovely comments about my own complex bag! It is great to be able to feel so connected to everyone through the medium of the internet and I really appreciate you taking the time to leave your thoughts, tips and advice!!
I'll leave you with an image Lyda took as I was preparing my small vessel on the gravel for a photo, it gives a good overhead view of the scalloped edges of the opening.
Variations on a felt slipper (another tutorial) and announcing felting workshop for Mullingar!
Ok, I actually have water again since last night so this morning I was able to complete another felt slipper project and this time incorporate some wet felting to finish! The pictures really are self explainatory but it's important to note that the rectangle of felt I started with was NOT fulled well (an early experiment using batts) and this is how I was able to wet felt hard to finish the slippers.
This time I cut the rectange into three and then divided one third in two again, doing this ensured that I would never have 'two right feet' again!
I sliced a bit off the back of the slippers as when I tried them on before stitching the back I realised that they were going to be VERY long!
I dunked the slippers (one at a time) into really hot water and soaked them before adding plenty of nice unscented soap. Working them in my hands for a minute or two I paid particular attention to the cut edges. Next I rolled them in my bamboo blind before working them on a washboard to shrink and set the shape.
It's easy to see from this image that the cut edges really needed to be worked well to seal the felt.
Once I was happy that the slippers had shrunk almost to size I rinsed the soap out and and spun them in my washing machine. To finish the shape nicely I put my feet in plastic bags (didn't want to have to take of my tights, STILL no heat!!) and worked them for a minute or two more on the washboard and banged the edges with a wooden spoon to full them properly.
Voila, my finished felt slip ons! I am actually very happy with these as although I didn't want to scrap one of my earliest flat felt experiments I had no idea what to do with the piece and it was languishing in my cupboard. Now I can keep my feet warm and wear the felt with pride! NB Check how the wool that I used to stitch the seams has also felted during the process, more pictures of the process on Flickr.
I am delighted to be invited by Anna Browne to facilitate a BEGINNERS and IMPROVERS FELTING WORKSHOP in Mullingar on Sunday 31st Janurary at the Educate Together National School in Mullingar. If you live in the midlands and would like to attend this fun day please book directly with Anna through her blog by clicking here! You can also see what Anna and her boys have been up to with some of my spare felt, gorgeous gifts and inventive ideas abound on her blog Anna Paints.
Thanks for all the comments on fulling in a tumble dryer and a few replies!
Thanks everyone for your comments and emails in relation to my last post, it has been really interesting studying your replies so please keep them coming! Not having a tumble dryer myself I didn't even know that there was a 'fluff or air only' option but this definitely sounds like an interesting avenue to explore, thanks Dawn for that tip. I also emphathise with Liz when she says that she feels guilty if fulling in a machine. This is something that I ask myself many times every week, is an item handmade if one uses electronic equipment in the process, ie. a sander or in this instance the tumble dryer? The answer I keep coming up with is that other artists and craftspeople use tools so why should we not?? Looking at things from this angle seems reasonable but I STILL have that niggling doubt in my mind! Any thoughts? As you all know I do use my washing machine for part of the process when making felt rugs, this is as a result of Mehmet's advice and I don't feel a bit guilty here since he gave me the go ahead.
Now to respond to Deb's two comments ……. I didn't use a dryer for the felted seascape, the white fibres that crinkled nicely were either spun wool or mohair (suitable for knitting) and I just laid them on top of my wool and felted by hand as normal. If anything I didn't roll for quite as long as normal as I wanted to keep a lot of texture in the finished piece. I also used some very fine white mohair (thanks Dawn, it was some of the great yarn from our destash swap!) in an extremely light piece of cobweb felt last week and it felted in beautifully but I did do a LOT of rolling between thin plastic sheeting to deep the felt very smooth and fine. In relation to rolling in a bamboo blind, I find them great. Usually I place my bubble wrap on the blind (bubbles facing up) and lay out my work as normal, wet out and cover with more wrap (bubbles down) and start the rubbing and rolling process. I then roll the whole lot up together as in the image below (have used laminate underlay in this piece but I am sure you get the picture) until the felt is
starting to hold together. At this stage I remove the bubble wrap and roll the felt directly in the blind, everything starts to come together much more quickly at this stage as the friction is greater with the bamboo than with the bubble wrap. I have also tried laying out the fibres directly on the blind as many people actually prefer but I find that using this method I need to unroll the package much more often. For me I find that the fibres have a habit of migrating through the rolled up layers and sticking together a bit before a surface skin has formed on the felt which is really annoying so this is why I prefer starting on plastic and then changing to the blind. Hope this makes sense! You do need to roll the blind quite firmly but once the felt starts to shrink it happens much faster than with bubble wrap alone.
Has anyone fulled felt in a tumble dryer?
I don't have a tumble dryer but Carmen does! People sometimes post on the internet about zapping felt in a tumble dryer for a short while but this is not something that I have ever done myself. Anyway, Carmen was telling me that she tried it out for the first time the other day and put a rug in her dryer for approx 10 minutes and it worked out amazingly well. I would be really interested to get any comments and feedback from those of you who have tried this out before, did it work, was it a disaster, would you do it again???

14 Aug What / things Underwriters Lick The Property finance loan Underwriting Process?
One of the important portions of the refinancce mortgage loan origination method is loan underwriting. Practise is carried out by underwriters. The profession title could possibly be explained by saying that often the underwriter would likely critique often the credit ranking associated with the client and towards make positive the patient meets many of the terms as well as conditions in the loan they get applied just for. They even acquire the perhaps the mortgage underwriting process through which someone should look from the market value of just about any properties. From this article you can see, the house loan underwriting practice can possibly be rather intricate though the individuals specifically precisely how to get it done. Difficulty Taking on Them Due to complications that may be expected inside mortgage underwriting process, the actual underwriters will be some of the perfect paid people in the market. For you to a small business owner of your fiscal firm, which can signify a significant financial commitment of which occasionally is just not promptly available. In order to hire numerous underwriters, in that case it can easily be extremely hard to perform so. For this reason the house loan underwriting practice is now currently being outsourced all the more seeing that a approach to answer the issues a compact agency sometimes have with financing for new personnel. Differences Among Internal Along with External Underwriters There are actually never in which many differences that you can get when it all comes so that you can dimensions underwriters and also outside underwriters. The very one significant difference is usually that the mortgage underwriting process is done in a far off position when you hire external usb underwriters. It is not necessary for the alternative underwriter to come to the very same location because you as they can connect all their own chores from far off. Providers that property finance loan underwriting will be very careful with whom some people hire simply because they need to be able to employ exclusively the most beneficial to help keep clients, in this unique case people, satisfied. Examination Of Docs Underwriters can take the responses of papers in the very mortgage underwriting progression in order for you to get a borrowing arrangement approved or perhaps rejected. Often the processing office in these kind of corporations will require all the documentation as they possibly can in sequence to get hold of the main financial loan authorised or perhaps denied. The particular overview of typically the documents simply because well since the tips provided just by the particular candidate is something that the very underwriter will administer on. But the job is actually tedious, they can usually undertake it quickly and now have an reply around the benchmarks considerably faster compared with inner underwriters. The main underwriters will certainly overview each applying it that happens in. Cutting Costs External the mortgage underwriting process specialists will help your lending company cut loads of costs. Which may be one great plus, particularly if you get a new company so you are seeking to widen. The wonderful news can be that using one regarding these firms is a good extension undoubtedly since you also usually are hiring not necessarily just yourself, but some sort of team of pros. Having connection to a tad bit more mortgage underwriters allows you actually to increase loans okayed. Eventually how many loans are certain to get so large that you will have in order to develop. Almost certainly saving money now could be a excellent way of making money for the long run. Learn more:

Antibody Titration - Help Needed
LucyT (Author)
Hi All,
I am pretty new to flow cytometry and would greatly appreciate advice.
I am trying to titrate a new antibody but can't seem to get it to work out no matter what concetration I start with. The company that I purchased it from recommened that I begin with 1ug/100ul and go downward serially diluting 1:2. I, instead, started with 2ug.
My main difficulty is that the receptor I am staining for is expressed in the vast majority (almost all) of cells, so I don't have a traditional positive vs negative population to compare. I have also been titrating the isotype alongside the receptor antibody, to use the isotype as my "negative" but no matter what concentration I start off at the histograms for the isotype and the receptor anitbody overlap almost perfectly. I ran an unstained and there is a clear difference between my unstained vs the isotype and receptor anitbody. This leads me to conclude I just have cross reactivity in my isotype that I am not appropriately getting rid of?
I have increased the amount of Fc block that i use as well as my staining time, but this has not helped.
I greatly appreciate any advice of how to proceed to get my antibody titered. Thanks so much!
Hi Lucy,
Here are some things I would consider:
1)The number of cells you stain. I use between 100.000-500.000 cells/tube in 100ul.
2) The amount of 2ug/sample looks ok to me. Actually I never had to use that much. 250ng is the usual or 1ug maximum. But that depends on the antibody used so it is great that you titrate yours first .
3)Is the receptor constitutively expressed on your cells or do you need to upregulate somehow its expression? If it's an inducible receptor then I would incubate my cells with the factor that upregulates the receptor's expression and later stain as a postivie control.
4) Is the antibody appropriate for flow cytometry?
5) Do you probably fix the cells before staining?Fixing before staining may interfere with your staining results.
6)Isotypes might sometimes give some background staining but your positive antibody should give you much higher signal than that. Is the signal of isotype control too high or the signal of the anti-receptor Ab too low?
7) Do you see any dilution effect in the samples where you titrated your Ab? In other words is there any decrease in the signal as you dilute the Ab concentration while titrating? If you don't see any dilution effect it seems to me that the Abs stick to your cells non specifically or they are in too much excess.
8)Fc blocker is a good idea for decreasing non-specificity (as long as it per se does not interfere with your staining. When I first started Flow I compared Fc blocker and noc Fc blocker staining to make sure that the Fc blocker actually made a difference).Also try to incubate your cells on ice. It decreases non specificity and keeps your cells healthy.
Good luck!
It would help to know the receptor. Having some experience with flow (10 years using machines here and there), I could let you know if the antibody you are using (what clone, what receptor, what fluorochrome) can really affect the results.
The staining time, temperature and concentration should always be kept constant, but my experience an antibody for a receptor/antigen widely available (let's say CD3, CD4, B220 etc) will stain at almost any condition (ie I've stained "compensation controls" at the last time in a hurry, incubating them for 5 min while holding the tube in my hand :).
My guess is that as the person above pointed out, you might be fixing the cells and staining after fixation. The fixation process uses formaldehyde which will crosslink any proteins in the surface of the cell, rendering the epitopes useless in many cases. Also, if the antibody is a tandem dye, you will be subject to increased signal spillover into another channel, since the fixation will also render the tandem inert (people call this "tandem breakdown" but it's more like the double bonds in the tandem molecule are disrupted, making it non functional. The original dye (APC, PE) the tandem was supposed to "piggyback" onto (ie, PE-Cy7, APC-Cy7, etc) will then be the channel where your signal appears.
i have experiments where I stain 5-10 million cells in 100-200μL without problems. You have to realize that the amount of antibody you add is way way way more than you need for a million cells. And 1μg is alot of antibody. Companies will ask you to stain with that much because 1) they make more money that way and 2) you want to saturate your sample with antibodies and get the most binding per cell, at an overkill concentration of antibody per cell. But for example, staining mouse splenocytes for CD4 on FITC (a relatively weak fluorophore) you can dilute down to 1:800, even 1:1600 without losing signal. The eBioscience antibody (http://us.ebioscience.com/media/pdf/tds/11/11-0042.pdf) says .125μg to be optimal, and this can probably be titrated to 1/4 that amount to get similar results. Sometimes, using too much antibody will shift the positive signal closer to the negative/unstained events, so finding the optimal titration is not only useful but might save you antibody and get you cleaner looking results.
Isotype controls are usually immunoglobulins with no specificity. If you're using a rat anti-mouse antibody, then the rat isotype should be suitable, but make sure there's no cross species reactivity.
But again, knowing the receptor/epitope, the clone, and the fluorochrome, as well as the fixation/processing steps involved, would be useful in helping you out.
Michael Daws
As the person above said, we need more details about the antibody. Some antibodies are not very good. If your antigen is expressed at high levels on all cells, and you can't see any difference from the isotype, then it may be that your antibody is junk. If you tell us what the antibody is then maybe someone can recommend another that works better.
There are other possibilities though. You may not be blocking Fc receptors sufficiently (although if your antigen is expressed on T cells, then this shouldn't be a problem - just titrate on T cells). Are you using enough Fc block? You can include 10% host serum to block Fc receptors too.
Are you using a secondary antibody? If so, it may be cross-reacting with your Fc block.

I have tried for several times but always failed. I can't reduce the levels of bacterial substance. Maybe I should read the materials here again.

A Chocolatey, Caramelly & Almond No-Bake Cheesecake, all based around the wondrous Daim Bar. My Daim Bar Cheesecake is definitely one of my FAVOURITES!
Daim Bars are one of those sweet treats that you either love, or have never had. I have had oodles of them from the occasional trip to IKEA when I was younger – but I will admit that I have neglected them over the years for other chocolates, till I was asked to create this delicious recipe from one of my regular readers.
Daim Bars are a crunchy caramel almond butter bar, covered in milk chocolate. They're naturally thin, and can come in whole bars – but my favourite is the bags of the mini ones. That way, I can eat a few of them without feeling guilty 😉 I decided that the best way to make this into a cheesecake was to follow in the footsteps of my No-Bake Toblerone Cheesecake and my No-Bake Honeycomb Crunchie Cheesecake – Making a chocolatey base of a cheesecake, and folding through the sweets!
The base of the cheesecake has almonds in, to fit with the flavour of the Daim Bars, but the almonds are optional. I decided with this recipe that I would use a mixture of Milk & Dark chocolate in the main cheesecake filling because I like the mixture of the two chocolates – it makes it a richer flavour without being too filling still, and folding through the chopped up Daim Bars makes it have the ever so slight hints of almond and caramel, without being too overpowering. Unlike most of my other cheesecakes however, I used some of the filling to decorate as I though a chocoholics heaven would be best! Delicious.
I must admit, this cheesecake is delicious – and if you love Daim Bars you will love this too. Let me know how you get on – enjoy!
This recipe serves 10-12!
Biscuit Base
– 300g Digestives/Graham Crackers
– 50g Chopped Almonds
– 150g Butter, Melted
Cheesecake Filling
– 150g Milk Chocolate
– 150g Dark Chocolate
– 500-600g Full-Fat Cream Cheese
– 100g Icing Sugar
– 300ml Double Cream
– 300g Daim Bars, Chopped
– 1tsp Vanilla Extract
– 1tsp Almond Extract
– 150ml Double Cream
– 2tbsps Icing Sugar
– 1tbsp Cocoa Powder
– Sprinkles
– Mini Daim Bars
1) To Make the Biscuit Base – Blitz the biscuits and the almonds in a food processor to a small crumb, add the melted butter, and pulse a few times until it is combined well. Tip into a 8″/20cm Deep Springform Tin and press down firmly – chill in the refrigerator whilst you do the rest!
2) For the Cheesecake Filling – Melt the two chocolates in a bowl over a pan of gently simmering water (double boiler) stirring gently or microwave in short bursts until fully melted – leave to cool slightly whilst doing the rest. (Mine usually takes 2-3 minutes in the microwave!)
3) With an electric mixer (I used my KitchenAid) Mix the Cream Cheese, icing sugar, vanilla extract and almond extract together until smooth. Whilst mixing, pour in the melted chocolate and Whip again until VERY thick. Mix with a spatula quickly to make sure its all combined well.
4) Whilst slowly whisking, pour in the liquid double cream and continue to whip the mixture until very thick – It will hold it self completely when finished whipping. You can alternatively whip the cream separately and fold it through the cheesecake/chocolate mixture.
5) Chop up the Daim Bars and fold through the cheesecake mix – pour onto the biscuit base and spread evenly. Leave to set in the fridge, covered, for 5-6 hours, or preferably over night!
6) To Decorate – Whip together the double cream, icing sugar, and cocoa powder until very thick. Using a Piping bag and a 2D Closed Star Piping Tip, pipe on the chocolate cream to decorate, and place a mini Daim Bar on each of the rosettes! Sprinkle on some chopped Daim Bar, and some sprinkles and enjoy!
If it looks like your cheesecake isn't setting, or its a but sloppy, or you're even not sure.. try it anyway. Try to set the mix anyway! If it still doesn't set, freeze it and have an Ice Cream Cheesecake!
Tips and Ideas
I recommend using a 8″/20cm Deep Springform Tin in this recipe!
You don't have to use the almonds in the base, but as a Daim Bar is an almond/caramel sweet, it does suit the flavour really well! (However, I don't find the Almond in the Daim bar comes through that strongly itself, so if you don't like almonds – you will still be fine with this cheesecake!) But if you're not using the almonds in the base, still use the 300g of biscuits – no more.
I always set my cheesecakes in the fridge overnight otherwise they risk not being set enough! I would also 100% recommend using Full-Fat cream cheese and cream if you're going to be taking it out of a tin, and not setting it in cups for example as it needs the fat content to set!
This Cheesecake will last covered in the fridge for 3 days!

The Transportation Security Administration has quietly adopted new "enhanced" pat-down searches for screening passengers at U.S. airports, a response to weaknesses in airport security.
The TSA on Thursday began using a "universal pat-down" procedure that includes "enhanced security measures" to replace several pat-down tactics used in the past by TSA screeners that are presumably less invasive.
The new measures have been in place at airports across the nation since Thursday, including Lehigh Valley International Airport, but no issues or longer lines have been reported at LVIA.
"Effective March 2, 2017, TSA consolidated previous pat-down procedures into one standardized pat-down procedure at airport security checkpoints and at other locations within the airport," said TSA spokesman Mike England. "This standardized pat-down procedure continues to utilize enhanced security measures implemented several months ago, and does not involve any different areas of the body than were screened in the previous standard pat-down procedure."
The TSA is standardizing its physical search procedure rather than allow screeners to choose among types of searches to reduce the chance of poor decisions at crucial security checkpoints. In effect, it subjects all travelers to the highest level of pat-down, but does not give TSA screeners any additional authority for searches.
TSA officials declined to detail the new universal procedure or the previous pat-down tactics, but the industry is bracing for passenger unhappiness about more invasive searches.
"Individuals transiting the TSA security checkpoint who have opted out of technology screening, or have alarmed certain technology or a canine team, will undergo a pat-down," England said. "Passengers may also receive a pat-down as part of our unpredictable security measures. TSA continues to adjust and refine our systems and procedures to meet the evolving threat and to achieve the highest levels of transportation security."
An airport trade group has told its members that TSA screeners will be allowed to use the front of their hands, instead of just the backs of hands, to search passengers if a previous screening indicated the presence of explosives, Bloomberg News reported, based on a "security notice" distributed by the Airports Council International-North America.
The TSA is briefing local law enforcement agencies "in case they are notified that a passenger believes a [TSA security screener] has subjected them to an abnormal screening practice," according to the notice.
The TSA said the standardized pat-down process comes in response to a 2015 undercover test of airport security measures by the Department of Homeland Security.
The results of the 2015 test are classified but John Roth, the inspector general of the Department of Homeland Security, told a congressional committee that the study "found layers of security simply missing." According to news reports, the test found that the screening procedures failed to detect handguns and other weapons.
The pat-down searches will be used on passengers who decline to go through the full-body screening machine used at most major U.S. airports or for those travelers who trigger a warning from the machine. TSA officers can also use a pat-down search on random travelers.
Passengers have the right to request a private pat-down screening and ask to be accompanied by a companion of their choice.
Morning Call reporter Matt Assad contributed to this story.

South Quick Reference
January 23, 2010
South is an excellent database migrations tool for Django.
Converting a Django App to use South
The first step is to convert your application to use South instead of Django's syncdb.
$ ./manage.py convert_to_south app_name
Create a Migration
When you change the model, South can automatically work out the differences between the model and the existing database structure, and generate a migration for you
$ ./manage.py schemamigration app_name reason --auto
See the migrations directory in your application for the new file created.
Run Migration
To run this migration, run the following command:
$ ./manage.py migrate app_name
South records whether a migration has been run or not using the table
id | integer | not null default nextval('south_migrationhistory_id_seq'::regclass) app_name | character varying(255) | not null migration | character varying(255) | not null applied | timestamp with time zone |
South appears to determine whether your application is enabled for south migrations or not by the presence or absence of the migrations directory inside the application.
Renaming Columns
You can also use south to change the name of a column:
def forwards(self, orm): # Rename 'name' field to 'full_name' db.rename_column('app_foo', 'name', 'new_name') def backwards(self, orm): # Rename 'full_name' field to 'name' db.rename_column('app_foo', 'new_name', 'name')

EdTech: Digital tools for Personal Learning and Development
Most professionals now use online media to find training resources to resolve Personal Learning and Development (PLD) needs.
This could be keeping up to date with the latest development in your subject, or to further your teaching skills development.
Professional and social media can be the first ports of call for finding high-quality training opportunities and materials.
It can be a fast and effective source of information, advice and guidance from colleagues who have faced the same issues.
This module will show you how to use online tools and resources for effective Professional Learning and Development (PLD).
After completing this module, you will be able to:
• describe and categorise the types of PLD opportunities that can be found online
• search for training and development opportunities on social media
• identify relevant free or low-cost online sources of training and development.
Digital Teaching Professional Framework
This module covers the EdTech component - G2 : Progression and CPD: strategies to develop digital skills and pedagogy
- Use online resources or social media to identify suitable training and professional development opportunities.
- Use online resources or social media to update one's subject-specific competences.
- Use online resources or social media to learn about new teaching methods and strategies.
- Use online resources or social media to search for and identify digital resources which support professional development.
- Use the exchange in digital professional communities as a source of professional development.
- Use online training opportunities, e.g. video tutorials, MOOCs, webinars etc.
- Use digital technologies and environments to provide training opportunities for colleagues and peers.
- Use professional collaborative networks as a source for one's own professional development.
You may also be interested in
Taking note of your feedbackWe greatly appreciate the time taken to provide us with feedback on each module. We regularly review all the feedback provided and use it to inform the development of new modules. Subject to funds being available and other constraints, we will amend existing modules where feedback shows this is required.
Fairly obvious stuff, but doesn't do any harm to be reminded on (for example) searching for PLD opps via ETF, JISC, TES etc.
This module has really got me thinking about networking and using technology to communicate with other FE digital teachers
interesting but basic
Good links but again I struggled with the exercise
very poor
Good for teachers in their PLD
Good introduction to using digital tools for personal development.
Sorry, but a bit pointless - I do prevent training every year to remain up to date with advice - can't see the point of this very limited contribution to this important subject.
Great unit! It highlights the significance of online training.
Login or signup to earn this badge!
There are many digital tools that can help you plan and manage your PLD. These badges look at digital approaches to recording and developing your personal learning and training. This is the Exploring stage, which recognises you have started exploring this area.

I'm in denial, and yet all the signs are there. Baby clothes have been put away or given away. The crib is now a double bed and what was once a nursery is now a little girl's room. Formula and bottles are a thing of the past, and baby toys and teethers have been replaced with dolls, tea sets, cars, trains, Legos, dress up clothes and well, the list goes on. If you look around my house there hasn't been any sign of a baby being in it for some time now. And yet I can't help but look at my little girl and still see my baby.
Tomorrow I will be pre-registering my three-year-old daughter for kindergarten (oh boy, here come the waterworks!) She will start in September, a little under three months before her fourth birthday. How did this happen? When did my baby girl grow up? I look at her and think: This can't be possible? Surely she's too small to be going into this big school building, with all of these bigger kids, right?
And while I know September is still far away and she will grow up more before then, I find myself having a hard time really accepting that this is happening.
Perhaps it's the fact that my daughter is my last born child, and her starting school finally has me coming to terms with the reality that the baby years are officially behind us.
It's bittersweet. While a part of me feels sad that this part of my life is over, another part of me is excited to watch my daughter continue to grow and learn. Two years ago we were preparing to send off my now five-year-old son to start kindergarten, and there has been such a change in my boy in those years! He's become less shy and more sure of himself; he's inquisitive and loves to learn about new things; he's gone from scribbles to actually writing and drawing pictures you can decipher; he's reading stories to us rather than being read to! (Well, we still read to the kids every day, but what I'm getting at is he's becoming a great reader!) These are all things my daughter will soon be doing and I am looking forward to being on this journey with her.
My daughter may not be wearing onesies and crawling around anymore – she's definitely growing up fast and is little Miss Independent! – but she will always be my baby.

CPU: Allwinner H3 ARM Cortex-A7 Quad-Core RAM: 1GB Storage: 1 microSD card slot + 8GB eMMC 1x Gigabit LAN 1x 100mBit LAN 2. USB 2.0 1x 802.11 b/g/n Wifi
There is also a 512MB Version which is not recommended.
Download the latest armv5tel IPFire image, (you need at least core135)
unpack the Image to a MicroSD Card
xzcat ipfire-2.23.2gb-ext4.armv5tel-full-coreXXX.img.xz > /dev/mmcblk? # (or /dev/sd? depends on your card-reader)
To connect the NanoPi R1 to a computer you need a Serial-TTL to USB-Cable.
IPFire not use the internal Debug port so you not need to open the NanoPi R1. The console is routed to the external uart port.
Connect a USB-TTL uart cable like this:
G - Black
V - don't connect
T - White
R - Green
Now you can use the same procedure like other serial devices to setup.
The default bootloader in the image boot from mmc0 but the eMMC is connected to mmc2. For eMMC boot you need a special u-boot that switch mmc0 and mmc2.
To install IPFire on eMMC first build the uSD card and basic configure it to have an Internet connection to redownload the Image (or copy it after fist boot in the R1 to the card). Unpack it the the eMMC and switch the bootloader.

text: Ali Bazmandegan, founder of A.B. Studio, is a self-developed painter and architect whose artistic works started in 1999 and is fueled by his passion for architecture and art. He attempt to satisfy the spirit, through his works, as well as establishing a particular connection with his audience. Some qualities inherent in his works are the hidden layers of human emotion that talk to the viewers, simply narrating a short story, and their cross-cultural form, in a way that people, regardless of their race, language or culture, can easily connect and are each able to have their own unique interpretation. He aspires, through his art, to make people of different nations and their art and culture closer, as it is believed the specific aesthetic nuances inherent in every culture, if discovered and juxtaposed, can create novel styles, something in line with the post-modern trends in art. His aim as an artist is to be able to relate with different people, by means of his art.
