User experience (UX) design is the process of creating products that provide meaningful and relevant experiences to users. This involves the design of the entire process of acquiring and integrating the product, including aspects of branding, design, usability, and function.
Since UX design encompasses the entire user journey, it's a multidisciplinary field – UX designers come from a variety of backgrounds such as visual design, programming, psychology and interaction design. Designing for human users also demands heightened scope regarding accessibility and accommodating many potential users' physical limitations, such as reading small text. A UX designer's typical tasks vary, but often include user research, creating personas, designing wireframes and interactive prototypes as well as testing designs. These tasks can vary greatly from one company to the next, but they always demand designers to be the users' advocate and keep the users' needs at the center of all design and development efforts. That's also why most UX designers work in some form of user-centered work process, and keep channeling their best-informed efforts until they address all of the relevant issues and user needs optimally.
User-Centered Design is an iterative process that takes an understanding of the users and their context as a starting point for all design and development

With any luck, you have a getaway planned this summer. Assuming you do, here are some suggestions to make your trip smoother and protect your investment. Make no mistake – a vacation is something of an investment. According to a recent online survey of 1,500 adults by American Express, Americans will spend an average of $1,246 per person on summer vacation.
Something will go wrong, of course, but the trick to a successful summer vacation is making sure nothing goes wildly amiss. With that in mind, here's how to avoid 10 travel missteps that will cost you.
Overpacking. Expect to pay up for all those extras you're packing. "Checked bag fees will cost you big – each way," says Gabe Saglie, senior editor at Travelzoo.
He isn't kidding. Some airlines charge up to $100 per checked bag and even more if your luggage crosses a certain weight threshold. Check with your airline to see how much your luggage can weigh. You'll do yourself a favor if you pack light.
"It's a drag to drag it all," Saglie says.
Not packing enough. If you're traveling with kids, especially by plane, pack accordingly. "Parents often do not plan ahead and pack enough distractions – toys, games, paper and pencil, snacks, DVDs. Air travel is not just the hours you spend at 38,000 feet, but those you spend waiting to board, waiting to take off and waiting to disembark," Saglie says.
Not alerting your bank and credit card companies that you're going on vacation. It's especially important to notify them if you're traveling to a foreign country. "It takes less than 10 minutes and falls under the 'better safe than sorry' category," says JaeMi Pennington, a public relations specialist in Boston, who learned this the hard way. "It can be pretty embarrassing when you're in line at Wal-Mart in Savannah, Georgia, trying to buy golf balls and your card gets declined because Bank of America thinks it was stolen."
Not calling your mobile phone provider if you're leaving the country. You could leave your smartphone at home, but assuming you're bringing it, let your provider know, advises David Corsun, director and associate professor of the Fritz Knoebel School of Hospitality Management at the University of Denver. Otherwise, you will likely spend more not just for phone calls but text messages and even looking up information on the Internet.
"Arrange for a time-limited data-text plan on your phone when traveling abroad, but do not leave all of your smartphone settings on 'business as usual,'" he says. "You can chew your international time up pretty quickly, and it can cost way more than planned if you do."
Julie Lucas, who works in marketing at the University of Denver, says she can vouch for Corsun's advice. "I made the mistake of going to Mexico in 2011, not getting an international time-limited data-text plan and ended up with a single monthly bill of $700. Normally, it's $94," she says.
Lucas was able to get her phone company to cut the bill in half, and now she never leaves the U.S. without first checking with her provider to see what the rules are for the country she is visiting and what her options are.
Not taking resort fees and taxes into account. If you're taking a long trip, forgetting about these can throw off your budget. "Your [hotel] room may be $99, but with taxes and fees, you may end up paying $139 or $149," says Andrew Young, Travelzoo's editorial director.
Forgetting your charger. Who hasn't had to go to a big-box store and buy a new one? Young suggests bringing not only the charger for your phone and other gadgets, but a power strip. "You can charge multiple devices off one outlet at your hotel," he says.
Taking your vacation when everyone else does. Sometimes you can't avoid it. But as Young says, "You're going to pay more, deal with bigger crowds, more traffic." If you can wait until the end of August, you'll find steeper discounts. But take your vacation around the Fourth of July, and expect to pay a lot more.

Wine glasses are so much more than just the things we sip from in the evenings. Sure, their long handles and wide bases are perfect for holding that delicious dinner beverage. But wine glasses can go further than you ever imagined. Next time you're holding a dinner party, grab some extra wine glasses from your pantry and use these tips to include them in your table decorations.
• First, turn the glasses upside down, then fill the bowl with almost anything. Flowers, beads, lights, and ornaments, or even a handful of tulle or lace can make an eye-catching design.
• When upside down, wine glasses make excellent candle pillars. This elegant design incorporates the previous upside down wine glass idea with candles, which always add elegance to a table. Consider using an array of colored candles to match the colors of your party or to match the season. Read More >
You could gush on for hours on what you like about the Brandywine Home that you intend to buy. The open floor plan or the stainless steel appliances, just to name few.
So why are your kids not as excited? Not only do they whine and moan about the new digs but they're openly hostile about your planned move. Put yourselves in their little shoes for a second. Your parents just told you that we are moving to a new house in a few days. You don't know why since you're perfectly fine with the only house you've ever known. You suddenly have to leave all your friends and your school to deal with something that is unknown and scary. It's no wonder that you don't want to go.
You can spare your kids all this grief and your attendant anxiety, and get them just as excited about the new house as you are, by following these easy tips. Read More >

Oliva Expected to Be Open for Sale in Summer 2019
DUARTE, Calif. – Brandywine Homes has acquired 1.26 acres in Duarte, Calif., and plans to build Oliva, a community offering 25 three-story townhomes. Brandywine has broken ground on the new neighborhood and plans to open the property for sale in summer of 2019.
"The San Gabriel Valley has everything people living around the L.A. area are looking for: jobs, entertainment, shopping, dining and more," said Dave Barisic, principal in charge of sales and marketing for Brandywine Homes, a pioneer of infill development in Southern California. "Unfortunately, the supply of new housing for those who want to live in the area is very low. We hope to ease that with the homes at Oliva." Read More >
Scraping together enough money for the down payment on a home can be a challenge. And even if you do have the funds, having extra cash on hand can help with unexpected costs. The following are some of our favorite ways here at Brandywine Homes to help you and your family save for down payment money.
Week-Number Challenge
The Week-Number Challenge demands that you save dollars equal to the number of weeks that you're into the challenge. For example, on week one, you save $1. On week 2, you save $2. And on week 3, you save $3, up until week 52, where you put away $52. You'll end up with $1,378 by the end of the challenge. That may not seem like much but why not get every member of your family into the game? The little ones can contribute one cent, two cents, etc, all the way up to 52 cents. This gives them a financial investment in your next property. Read More >
A new town home community will start construction on Huntington Drive between Mountain Avenue and Buena Vista Street in Duarte next year.
Dubbed Oliva, the new residents should be moving in by winter 2020. The project has been underway since December 2017, according to city officials.
The next step is for the builders to apply for permits, Craig Hensley, community development director for Duarte, said Monday. Read More >
The holidays are just around the corner and, for many people, that means entertaining groups of friends and family. Since you've just bought a new home, you'll naturally want to show off your home and your hosting abilities. You can successfully pull off even the busiest holiday entertainment schedule by following these five simple tips for holiday entertaining in your new Brandywine Home.
The Invitation List
You want to invite everyone you know and love to your holiday party, that's understandable. However, you have to keep in mind the amount of space that you have when you're finalizing your guest list. There's an easy formula you can use to calculate the perfect number of guests. First of all, you'll need to know the square footage of your home. You'll then take that figure and divide it by five, which is the number of feet of personal space each of your guests will need. Therefore, if your space is 1,000 square feet, divided by five, you can comfortably entertain up to 200 people. Read More >

Braithwell Wheelbarrows bring the South Yorkshire village together
PUBLISHED: 08:31 25 June 2010 | UPDATED: 13:09 10 June 2016
There's nothing like a wheelbarrow race to bring people together says Bill Hearld as he explores Braithwell in South Yorkshire
It's the highlight of the year in lovely Braithwell – the annual wheelbarrow race. It attracts hundreds of visitors from far and wide and also helps plough back money into community projects.
On the first Thursday of every July (this year it's July 1st), Braithwell, near Doncaster, comes alive as adults push a passenger in a wheelchair the two miles to neighbouring Micklebring.
The children's race is a much shorter route round the village.
Arnold Pawson – along with long-time friend Dennis Dunstan – was the winner of the very first wheelbarrow race as part of the Coronation celebrations in 1953. He's been involved in organising the annual event ever since and he's just as passionate about it. This year, local businesses and organisations have sponsored 20 identical wheelbarrows to prevent cheating. 'Some of the wheelbarrows were getting a bit streamlined, basically a chair on a wheel,' said Arnold.
The day I visited, the village was all a-buzz over the surprise visit the day before by Jeremy Clarkson and the Top Gear team. Even BBC television's Harry Gration was there and residents turned out in droves to greet them.
Braithwell is a charming village between Doncaster and Rotherham. And let's clear up any confusion right away. 'We are not in Rotherham, despite our postal address,' said parish councillor Helen Parkinson.
'We are in Doncaster Metropolitan Borough. We also have a Sheffield postcode which is all very confusing but when we say we are going into town, we mean Doncaster.'
Braithwell is home to about 1,000 people, as well as some beautiful stone-built properties and charming cottages. It has two surviving pubs, where each year Christmas and harvest festival events are alternated in the interest of fairness. There's only one tiny shop – Mamma's Deli and Store – originally a cruck cottage which has undergone various guises as a hairdresser's, a beauty salon and a fish and chip shop. There is only one restaurant, the Garden Restaurant – voted Best Restaurant in Doncaster – which also has a garden centre attached.
There's been a church in Braithwell for 1,000 years, but the present day St James' Church dates back to 1106 and is well-cared for with an attractive churchyard and some impressive stained-glass windows.
In the heart of Braithwell is the ancient village cross – dedicated to 'the freeing from bondage of King Richard I, circa 1191'. The cross attracts tourists and, as it is sited at a busy junction, an island refuge has been built around it by the parish council so people can view it in safety.
There may not be many shops but there is plenty going on in Braithwell. 'It's such a friendly, caring place,' said church warden Joan Addenbrooke, a resident for 33 years. 'Everyone is proud of the village and the people who live in it. Once they move here, they don't want to leave.'
The Ruddle Centre is the local community centre while the original 17th century village school became the Master's House, home to the Darby and Joan Club which is now known as the Evergreens. Between them, these two community buildings host all sorts of events such as yoga, modern, sequence and folk dancing, a Yorkshire Countrywomen's group, Guides and Brownies, handicrafts group and activities for the very young and old.
But what Braithwell is most proud of is its Good Companions organisation. It is a charitable concern which helps out wherever it is needed in the village. Members drive villagers to hospital appointments and visits or on shopping trips. They help fund young people's Operation Raleigh trips or sponsor a local Guide or Brownie on an annual camp; and will support a villager in real need. Any profits from the Wheelbarrow Race go to the Good Companions, as do proceeds from the Christmas Market and other events.
In 1289, the village obtained a Royal Charter entitling it to hold a weekly Tuesday market and an annual eight-day fair. These were long discontinued by a survey of 1652 and today only the small Christmas Market survives.
Braithwell is a rural retreat but not everything is perfect. There are problems with commuter traffic speeding through the village on the way to Doncaster or the nearby M18. Talks with police and Doncaster Council have so far failed to resolve the issue.
And the most recent school closed down in 1995 making it difficult to attract younger families.
Apart from that, they reckon life is pretty good in Braithwell.
Fact File
Where it is: Braithwell is seven miles south-west of Doncaster on the B6376 and two miles from the M18. There is a half-hourly bus service to and from Doncaster, less frequent to Rotherham.
Where to park: There is no official car park but there is some on-street parking and ample pub and garden centre parking for customers.
What to do: There are two pubs and a restaurant and garden centre in the village. The annual Wheelbarrow Race is held on the first Thursday of July and a church and country fair is held in the village each June.

June 7, 1923 - September 1, 2017

Arthine June Mark
June 7, 1923 - September 1, 2017
Arthine June Mark, passed away on Friday, September 1, 2017 Artine was born at home on Staten Island New York on June 7, 1923, the fifth child of Minnie and Arthur Roesler. Delivered by her grandmother, who was the local midwife at a time when most births occurred at home. The midwife would stay until the new mother could manage.
Arthine's great love for her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and his people is known far and wide. She was born and baptized in the Moravian church. At age 8 her cousin Ruth took her to Sunday school at the First Presbyterian Church Presbyterian church in Stapleton, Staten Island and introduced her to the pastor. Little Arthine was so nervous that she promptly threw up on the pastor's shoes. At Sunday school she met little Jackie Mark who, on that first day, took her hat and would not give it back… for a while. Arthine and Jack were always members of the choir.
As an adult with two small children and working full time, Mom was the Sunday school superintendent at First Presbyterian church. John can remember her leading in song and teaching.
While living in New Jersey from the 1970s to the 90s and attending Andover Presbyterian Church Arthine held many positions of responsibility including deacon and head of missions. In the early 2000's when she moved next door to John they attended Bible study at Ossining's First Presbyterian Church where she also was an active member and John's St. Augustine Church. She was known for copious amount of homework with cross-references. It was fitting that mom breathed her last peacefully while our friend Carol was praying with her.
While in high school Arthine was in training to "go to business" as a secretary like her older sister Marie. In her sophomore year she decided that she wanted to help people like her neighbor Winnifred who she saw marching off to work as a registered nurse in her beautiful white uniform holding her white cap in a bag. Her mother and father said "no you cannot change courses". Undeterred, Arthine wrote a letter to her parents explaining why she wanted to become a nurse and that she would double up on courses in order to reach her goal. Her parents, when they saw that she was serious, agreed. Upon graduation, with honors, from Curtis high school she was accepted into the Staten Island Hospital school of nursing in 1941, just before the attack on the US and our entry into WWII.
Arthine's boyfriend Jack Mark immediately enlisted in the Navy. During the war dad had the USS Wasp aircraft carrier sunk out from underneath him by enemy torpedoes. Mom was so frightened she sent him a dear John letter ending their engagement. When he came home on leave Jack's sister Amy arranged for him to be at her apartment and invited Arthine separately. Amy had Jack in the kitchen making "navy coffee" and sent Arthine into the kitchen for something when she got to the apartment. The rest is history mom apologized for the dear John letter and immediately asked him to marry her. He gave the proper response: "when?". Because his leave was short they married two days later.
On graduation from nursing school in 1944 Arthine commenced a career as a registered nurse that would span 50 years. She worked at numerous hospitals during World War II and the Korean War, going wherever dad was stationed: Massachusetts Gen., Baltimore, Newport and back to Staten Island Hospital, Bellevue and Richmond Memorial when dad got an overseas post again. Mom worked in the ER, burn unit (where she became known as butterfly fingers for not hurting people during debreeding) and charge nurse of a floor. Jack was stationed in the Philippine islands on a PT boat when the invasion for Japan was planned. Thank God that the United States did not have to invade Japan and lose an estimated 1 million sailors, airmen and soldiers probably including Jack. Arthine retired from nursing in 1973 after 17 years as the school nurse responsible for 1500 middle school students in Byram Township, Northwest New Jersey.
Arthine, at the beginning of the women's liberation movement in the 60s, exclaimed in the hearing of her children "I don't know what that's all about. Liberation from what? I certainly don't need any liberation. I have a church I love. I have a husband and a family that I love. I have a job that I love and no one has ever stopped me from doing what I love."
Arthine is predeceased by her parents, brothers William and Edmund and sisters Gladys who died at birth (D) and Marie. Arthine and the love of her life Jack (John Mark Junior), who predeceased Arthine February 28, 1982, had 5 children Janet (Donald Kish (Deceased) and Dennis Burke (Deceased) – the oldest, who predeceased Arthine on November 11, 2015, Jeanne who was stillborn. Arthine and Jack are survived by their other children John (Mary), Brian (Karolina) and Donald (Sara), 11 grandchildren: Christine Healy (James), Donald John Kish, John Kish (Michelle) , Janet Kish (Deceased) Steven Kish (Deceased), Jacy Mark, John Mark IV, Erin Elyse Mark, Alex Mark, Jessica Mark, Christian Mark. 10 great-grandchildren: Richard Bauer, Zachary Bauer, James Healy, Cassandra Kish, Jonathan Kish, Christopher Kish, Catherine Kish, Steven McGlocklan, Corinthiana-Lynn McGlocklan (D) there are 4 great-great-grandchildren: Matthew Gross, Ethan Kish, Adrian Kish, and Owen Bauer totaling 30 descendents from Arthine and Jack.
In closing, Arthine June Mark made lifelong friends no matter where she went spreading her love and receiving the love of others.
There will be a celebration service of Arthine's life at the Ossining First Presbyterian Church, 34 South Highland Ave., Ossining, NY 10562 914-941-0540 at 4:00 PM Sunday September 24.

K Rao. Comments on the paper entitled "Toxic Effects of Industrial Effluents on Rat : Analysis and Remediation Methods." The Internet Journal of Toxicology. 2007. Volume 3. Number 2. – Reg.. The Internet Journal of Toxicology. 2007 Volume 5 Number 1.
Toxicity of wastewater / industrial effluents treated or untreated according to standards prescribed shall be carried out using fish and any other aquatic organisms as recommended by regulatory authority. Toxicity evaluation is carried out on treated effluent for disposal to environmental media.
Rats are not used for evaluating the toxicity of industrial wastewater.
Raw wastewater at JETL is subjected to physico-chemical and aerobic biological treatment in a Combined Wastewater Treatment Plant (CWWTP) and the treated effluent has been meeting the discharge standards for disposal to sewer since 1998 onwards. It is meaning less as well as surprising to conduct studies on the toxicity of the untreated wastewater using rats as the test animal. It is still surprising to state that the wastewater requires treatment.
Data on characterization of wastewater used in the study (Table-1) do not represent the characteristics of raw wastewater received and stored before biological treatment. The values reported for TDS is 36.898 ppm. On the other hand chlorides as 1799.4ppm, sulphate 6982.867 ppm and phosphate as 6125 ppm. The anions along with cations eg. Na, K, Ca & Mg will be present in TDS and hundreds of times higher than TDS value reported. Hence the sample used for the study does not represent the wastewater received at JETL for treatment.
Hence the authenticity of the study is questionable. The publisher may look into these aspects and call for explanation from the authors of the publication and inform us.
Thank you,

Metavision is a combination of supervision, coaching and leadership, applying a holistic paradigm to working with people in a range of settings. It combines the intelligence of the heart, the mindfulness of Eastern philosophy, the field theory of Quantum physics and the interpersonal skills of counselling psychology to provide a broad and fluid approach to working with individuals and groups.
A Holistic paradigm sees the essence of a person as spiritual with innate intention and wisdom. An opportunity to unfold the innate intention presents itself when difficulties, tensions and obstructions occur in a person's life. This teleological metaskill of purposeful direction requires of a practitioner the ability to take many different roles when working with people. The roles range from coach to mentor to supervisor to leader or wise elder depending on the need and situation. This requires fluidity and a capacity to hold a situation with empathic, interested, open presence while listening to the stories that point the way forward.
As the need for psychological and interpersonal skills grows, the fields of Positive Psychology, Coaching and Mentoring are current ways of extending psychological counselling/psychotherapy away from a focus on problems and pathology, towards a strength based, goal orientated approach. Metavision, by its holistic nature, embodies this focus, in which current tensions are seen as emergent possibilities pointing to future direction whatever the context.
In short Metavision is a praxis that adapts to the context of any setting, using metaskills of holism, teleology and deep respect. It is in contrast to the oft used application of a prescribed model within a specialization that is a reduced part of a whole system.
I had been working in a supervisory capacity for allied health staff at St Vincent's Hospital Sydney for some time when a senior consultant Physician asked me if I would take a small group of junior doctors for "Supervision" as they rotate through the Palliative care unit at St Vincent's hospital. This was very different from the individual supervision that I was used to doing. As I am always up for a challenge I agreed, not knowing what I was getting into. It seems 'not knowing' was the operative word.
I came with my skills set developed from years of clinical counselling and supervision and familiarity with group work together with an open agenda. As I listened I realized that the range of issues that concerned these junior doctors was not the clinical case /patient work, but many other issues that impacted their working life. These questions ranged from fundamental questions about choosing medicine as a career, to how to deal with frightened or angry dying patients or upset family members, to conflicts with staff and to self care in stressful situations and so on. As we worked with various problems and sources of tension, I noticed the junior doctors were changing and so indeed was the whole work place. Subtle but important relationship tensions eased, the interns felt more supported as support networks deepened, difficult issues with families and patients were seen as learning opportunities, facilities and practices within the palliative care unit improved, and even tensions with other departments such as administration were reduced.
As I reflected on the whole process I realized that I was not doing 'supervision'. It needed to be called something different, since 'supervision' has the particular connotation of overseeing clinical patient practice and could be misleading for the particular process I was bringing. The word 'metavision' meaning to see together with, after, around, above and often bringing change, seemed a better choice.
Since then I have realized that this approach has much to offer in a variety of diverse settings. I have had the opportunity to use it with teachers, natural therapists, and staff working in a nursing home as well as with my own students at the Metavision Institute. I see its application as very broad. In our culture, where skills have been quantified and specialized, this holistic Meta paradigm offers the possibility of bridging the unnecessary duplication and alienating isolation that can arise from the narrow perspective that specialization can bring.
Courses in Metavision are available for people with appropriate prior learning.

my friend kaufman and another emmy
So my friend Brian Kaufman won another emmy. Sounds easy as my newspaper now holds more emmys than any other newspaper in the world. 4 years running. i am so stoked for him. I am very proud of him. I pray for god in his life often.
Working with Kaufman during the last project we won an emmy for was the best part of it. In my opinion he is one of the best editors and video shooters in the USA. In early 2005, while I was still at Brooks, I had just come back from Vietnam after documenting the return of war photographer Nick Ut for the 30th Anniversary of the Fall of Saigon when the subject of Ut's image, Kim Phuc, called me to ask me to document her going to Uganda. I knew the story of her going to an orphanage and burn center in Uganda was going to be a challenge to document thoroughly in two mediums. I talked to Kaufman after that call about possibly teaming up with me on this story. After one more call to secure this trip I yelled across the south lawn at Brooks, " Hey Kaufman, we're going to Uganda". And he was in.
After I got a job straight out of Brooks at the Detroit Free Press, Kaufman graduated and got a job at Naples Daily News. A few months after documenting wealthy people, turtle races and storms he traded beaches for bums and moved to Detroit. I think he moved up to Detroit to work at the paper because he missed his good old friend Steve.
So after working next to Kaufman for 4 years, sitting next to him at the Emmys was an amazing mark on our professional careers and our friendship. I had my hand on his shoulder as they were opening up the envelop (ready to consul him in our loss sorry to say, ready to say, "Don't worry, we will be back again"). When they announced, "Freep.com for RESPECT" I stated loudly, "Shut up bro, we won" at which many people turned around startled. Then we walked to the stage.

Big Largemouth Bass Bait: How to Choose The Right Ones
- First of all, let's have a look at the general description about largemouth bass
- What Largemouth Bass Bait you should use and how to use them properly
- Artificial Lure
- And here are some of my favorite artificial lures which I find very effective in largemouth bass fishing
- Here are some final tips on using artificial lures
The largemouth bass is one of the most common and popular fish species in the US, which catch the interests of many anglers regardless of the seasons.
There are many things that you need to know to go for largemouth bass fishing such as choosing the right spot, the right time and having the proper techniques. Among them, knowing what fishing bait to use is critical.
Read on to learn more about Largemouth Bass Bait to increase your fishing performance and your success in catching more big fish.
First of all, let's have a look at the general description about largemouth bass
In general, a largemouth bass is green with black dots formed along each flank. As the name suggests, a largemouth bass has a very big mouth. They are also the biggest type of bass in the black bass family. Bass can live up to 16 to 18 years, weighting up to 25 lbs.
They are aggressive predators that will fight hard and attack their prey by ambushing them. Many people believe and confirm that when they use large bait, they can even catch a bigger largemouth bass fish. They think that the fish doesn't want to eat such large fish but only wants to make a statement about who is stronger.
Young largemouth bass eats mostly insects and smaller fish. Grown up largemouth fish also eat smaller fish such as shad fish along with other small mammals like frogs and snakes.
What Largemouth Bass Bait you should use and how to use them properly
Live Bait
The best live bait for largemouth bass: The most common types of live baits which you can use for targeting largemouth bass are worms, night crawlers, shad fish and wild shiners. They are commonly sold in fishing stores, or you can catch them easily.
Here are some things that you should remember when you use live baits for largemouth bass:
Storing: You should keep the live baits in a special storage with constant temperature, water, and enough oxygen. Making sure that the live baits are still alive when you cast them into the water is very important as the chance bass fish catch dead bait is close to zero.
How to hook it up: to prolong the life of the live bait (minnows), you should hook it up through the nostril to the lip (either front lip or bottom lip is fine). Be careful not to break the neck and the spine of that bait.
When you hook the bait this way, it could be able to swim upwards and downwards allowing you to troll better.
You can hook the bait in the dorsal fin as it will be able to move much freely. However, it means that the bait will be tired much quicker and die in a shorter amount of time. This technique is suitable if the area you are fishing in is full of fish and you don't have to wait for long till a fish catch on your bait.
Finally, if you want to target fish that feed on the bottom, you can hook the bait in the anal fin. With this way, the bait will swim downwards.
How big the bait you need each time?
It will depend on the size of the fish you want to target as well as the season you are going fishing in. With big largemouth bass, you will need a piece of bait with the length from about 4 to 5 inches. If you aim for bigger fish, you can use bait with the bigger size.
The size of the live bait also depends on the season you are fishing in as well. When you go fishing in the spring and summer, you should use bigger bait than the bait you use in the winter.
In the winter, largemouth bass fish tend to move less active. Their metabolism is slower, so they are not hungry and will be turned away by big bait.
- How you cast live bait is also very important if you want to keep it alive. You should use underhand pitching or cast with a side arm. These casting methods can provide less impact of the bait against water and prevent the scales from falling off the fish.
- The size of the bait needs to match the size of the hook. If a shad fish is about 3 inches long, it should be attached to 3-ought hook. The bigger the bait, the bigger the hook.
- Be patient and wait for the fish to catch on the bait in the first try. Casting the same bait multiple times will kill it.
- When you cast your bait, you should let the live bait move freely on its own or throw in some movements if you use an artificial lure. As long as it reaches the bottom, you should jerk the bait slowly along the bottom. The slow movement is the key thing.
Artificial Lure
Just like when you choose live baits, there is a huge selection of artificial lures for you to choose from with categories in types, designs, colors, and sizes.
Being able to use the right lure depends pretty much on knowing the condition and location where you fish in.
- For shallow fishing: you can use wet flies, minnow plugs, crankbaits, and spoons. They have a special design which can help the bait to plunge while you retrieve the fishing line.
- For fishing around rocks, brush cover and trees: you can use crankbaits and spoons. They can reach at various depths depending on how you sink the lure.
- For fishing in deep areas: you can use jigging spoons, plastic worms and lead headed lures which resemble natural prey.
And here are some of my favorite artificial lures which I find very effective in largemouth bass fishing
- Plastic Worm: It mimics the natural worm – the favorite food of largemouth bass. It can also be used in different types of water – no matter how shallow or deep the body of water is. And you can use it multiple times in all seasons throughout the year.
- Spinnerbait: You have various choices of blades and skirts, which you can adjust them to meet your personal fishing experience. This type of artificial lure is the best when it comes to fishing in a large area as it is super effective in trolling.
- Crankbait: This is my favorite lure with a lot of colors for me to choose from such as bright orange and green. Besides having a various colorful cover, a crankbait can make a lot of movements and vibrations to attract the bait. If you want to go deep fishing with this lure, you need to choose one with big and expansive lip size. It can also be used for shallow fishing when it lies on the surface.
- Jig: A jig is also very effective and versatile. You can use it in both dark and clear water. However, it works best when the temperature is below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. So while you can use anytime throughout the day, the best time to use it is at noon or late afternoon.
Besides types of artificial lures, you also need to consider among different shades and colors. Largemouth bass fish are attracted to movements as well as colors. Scientifically, the bass is more aggressive towards to color red so you should add one with this color to your collection. However, you should buy various lures with different shades and colors. When one color does not work, you can simply change to other colors. Also, remember to use brighter color when the water is clear and darker shade when it is not so.
Here are some final tips on using artificial lures
- There are no best lures for all types of occasions, weather conditions and bodies of water; therefore, you should prepare a few different types of lures in different sizes, colors, and shapes in your tackle box. Prepare to change from one to another when the first one cannot give you any bite.
- It is very important that you know what the largemouth bass are eating in the place where you go fishing. When you know what they like to eat and often eat, you will have more chance of tricking them.
- You also need to throw in some actions with your lures. You can reel your bait quicker in the summer. On the other hand, in the winter, when the largemouth bass and their natural prey move slowly and become inactive, you should retrieve and jerk slowly as well.
There are many other important things that you need to know for a successful largemouth bass fishing trip. For examples the length of the rod, the test line and the skills that you need to have. They are a huge amount of information which this article cannot cover.
Nevertheless, the useful and essential information about fishing baits that I provide here can answer some of your questions regarding largemouth bass fishing. With knowledge and experience, you will soon become an expert in bass fishing and gain a lot of fun time along the way.

The Nightly Show!
I wanted it to be good. I wanted it to succeed. So I tried. For two months I was a regular listener. But it didn't work. The show never got better. A format that depended on strong guests – who rarely showed up. Silly, insipid diversions that didn't help. And a nice guy host, Larry Wilmore, who wasn't strong enough to overcome the other deficiencies.
Going in I thought that black-focused subjects might not be enough to work for a diversified audience. But that wasn't the problem. Whatever the night's focus, the writing and the format fell flat.
So I gave up. For years I recorded Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert for an hour and watched the next day. When Colbert left I kept the DVR set to record the full hour. But no more. Now it is 8 to 8:30 for the Daily Show and that's it for Comedy Central on a daily basis. I didn't expect the Nightly Show to be as good as Colbert, which was brilliant, but I did expect more than I got. So I gave up.
I'm happy that John Oliver's show, Last Week Tonight, has turned out so well. As with the Nightly Show, I was skeptical that he could pull it off. But in this case I was pleasantly surprised to find that I was dead wrong. What Oliver has done is perceptive, thoughtful and entertaining. Brilliantly done.
So win some, lose some. Such is life on the small screen.

As director of Highmark First Night Pittsburgh, Sarah Aziz has spent months and months, year after year, working out all the details for the biggest family party of the year.
But while she is running the show on New Year's Eve, Sarah is doing double duty, keeping her three kids happy as they enjoy the celebration and countdown to the New Year.
Her experience as a mom and the ultimate insider make Sarah the perfect guide for First Night Pittsburgh, marking its 25th anniversary this year. She agreed to share her pro tips to maneuver the excitement filling the 14-block Cultural District. Expect fireworks, a zany parade, an array of staged performances, hands-on activities, magic shows, live concerts – and more fireworks.
Follow this guide for the best New Year's Eve ever.
Buy your buttons
Admission Buttons are $10 each, free for ages 5 and younger. Pin the button on your jacket for access to all indoor and outdoor activities. Buy buttons online, at Cultural Trust box offices or participating Giant Eagle stores.
As soon as you buy the Admission Button, register with the Cultural Trust. Look over the schedule of indoor venues, which require reservations, and make selections as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. Tickets to shows like the Kids Comedy Show at Penny Arcade and Zuzu African Acrobats, while free, are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
A cool way to get the whole family involved is to march in the First Night Parade. Volunteers who sign up by Dec. 22 will receive free Admission Buttons. Parade participants – 500 volunteers of all ages are needed – meet at the David Lawrence Convention Center to pick their puppets and line up for their starring roles in the big puppet dance through the streets. It's an experience your kids won't want to miss!
Plan ahead
Before heading out for the night, Sarah always goes over a map of the area with her kids. She shows them ahead of time what they're going to be doing and even outlines parameters: They can buy one thing from all of the flashy vendors, for example, but no more.
And she sets up a meeting point, just in case anyone slips away from the group.
One thing to consider before attending is your parking options since there will be big crowds in addition to street closures. Check the Trust's parking app to find parking.
Sarah's family usually parks in the Theater Square Garage, where you get a reserved spot if you buy a $40 VIP experience package, which includes priority access seating to shows.
Parking on the North Side or Station Square and catching a ride on the T is another way to avoid the mania of Downtown parking. If riding public transportation looks like the best option, kids 12 and younger ride free with an adult wearing a First Night Button beginning at 4 p.m. Dec. 31. Check routes here.
Start off with a bang
For little kids who might not make it to midnight, the Dollar Bank Children's Fireworks explode in the night sky at 6 p.m. at the intersection of 7th Street and Penn Avenue. Sarah recommends arriving by about 5:30 p.m. to get in position for the best view.
Stay warm
Following fireworks, warm up in the Family Tent, sponsored by Highmark & Allegheny Health Network, at the corner of 7th Street and Penn Avenue.
"It's a huge tent. It's heated inside and there's lots of hands-on activities," Sarah says.
Open from 6 to 11 p.m., kids can do take-home crafts at the Citizens Bank Children's Theater Series and EQT Bridge Theater Series table or help Allegheny County Park Rangers identify animal scat. Accept building challenges from Steel City LUG (LEGO Users Group) or learn about Pittsburgh history with activities from the Fort Pitt Museum.
Take in a show
There are plenty of shows to choose from: comedy, ballet and Broadway tunes. Consider this a reminder to reserve your seats when you buy your Admissions Buttons. Once you know the shows you're committed to, you can plan around those times and venues to catch ongoing street performances and concerts.
For the little ones, up to about 10 years old, Sarah recommends the Penny Arcade at Arcade Comedy Theater. "They think it's hilarious," she says.
Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre School will perform excerpts from "The Nutcracker" at the August Wilson Center, while Lee Terbosic Live – Magician & Comedian works the O'Reilly Theater crowd. Fans of Stephanie Keyes' YA fantasy series will love to hear her reading from "The Star Child."
All of these shows are great for the kids, Sarah says. In fact, you won't find a show at First Night that is not family friendly.
Catch carnival fun (and a bathroom break)
Stop at Fifth Avenue Place where kids can glory in face painting and balloon artists. Pondering what's ahead in the new year? Get your fortune told for a sneak preview of events.
Pittsburgh Center Creative Reuse will be celebrating a Scrappy New Year with oodles of reclaimed fabrics, trims, and ribbons.
The area has restrooms and changing tables – bonus! – which makes for a nice stop as you're making your way through town.
Stop for street performers – from fire to ice
The Fire and Ice Plaza at the intersection of 9th Street and Penn Avenue will amaze revelers of all ages. This choreographed, high-energy show will have you gasp as Ice Creations ice carvers wield chainsaws that shoot sprays of snowy ice into the air. Steeltown Fire brings its fire jugglers, fire breathers and fire dancers who move among the ice carvers. The kids always are in awe, Sarah says. Check the schedule for times on the four shows.
Go Glow Crazy!
New this year is the Steel City "Let's Glow Crazy" Dance Party by Emerald Owl Productions. Three parties are planned for the night in EQT Plaza. This entertaining addition to the First Night lineup is geared specifically toward middle school-aged kids, Sarah says. They will love dancing the night away. Pro tip: Wear your best glow-in-the-dark clothing, accessories and glow paint for maximum "Glow Crazy" fun.
Eat out – and in
Your favorite food trucks lining Ninth Street will sell the kind of snacks kids love. Stop by the food court in Fifth Avenue Place for a burger or Chinese food. Or take advantage of the many restaurants throughout the Cultural District, from tacos to pizza, that Sarah says are fan favorites with the kids. If the latter is your choice, reserve a table ahead of time.
Rage the parade
The signature First Night New Year Parade commemorates the 25th anniversary with a "Black and Gold Turns Silver" theme. The parade starts at 8 p.m. at the David Lawrence Convention Center, heading to Fifth Avenue Place on Penn Avenue, then turning onto Stanwix Street.
While anywhere along Penn Avenue will provide you with a great view of Cheryl Capezzuti's larger-than-life puppets, performance groups and fire trucks, Sarah recommends heading to a spot closest to your car's parking spot. For many little kids, this is the end of the night. It's already an hour past bedtime for many, says Sarah, laughing, and it's time to say, "Happy New Year" a few hours early.
Or stick around
If you have older kids and decide to stay through to the final countdown, many of the shows have later times slots.
Durand Jones and the Indications will take the Highmark Stage to countdown to the New Year. Watch as the Future of Pittsburgh Ball rises atop Penn Avenue Place. When the clock strikes midnight, Zambelli Fireworks burst into the New Year.

Volta Finance Limited (VTA / VTAS) – March 2019 monthly report
Guernsey, 23 April 2019
AXA IM has published the Volta Finance Limited (the "Company" or "Volta Finance" or "Volta") monthly report for March. The full report is attached to this release and will be available on Volta's website shortly (www.voltafinance.com).
PERFORMANCE and PORTFOLIO ACTIVITY
In March, Volta's NAV* total return performance was +0.5%, bringing the YTD performance to 4.0% after a volatile end to 2018.
Volta paid a quarterly dividend (€0.15 per share) on the 28th March (the ex-dividend date was the 7th March).
This positive performance was driven mainly by the good performance of bank balance sheet transactions (+0.7% for the month) and of CLO debt tranches (+0.6%). The performances of Volta's other asset classes in local currencies were: -0.2% for CLO Equity tranches; +0.7% for Cash Corporate Credit deals; and +0.4% for ABS.
As at the end of March, Volta was fully invested having purchased three new positions (1 Bank Balance Sheet transaction and 2 CLO Equity positions, one in Euro and one in USD) for a total of the equivalent of €24.2m. On average, using market standard assumptions, the projected yield of such purchases was 12.6%. Some of these purchases have a settlement in April, explaining why the cash position of Volta at the end of March was negative (on a trade date basis not on a settlement date basis).
At the end of March, Volta still had exposure to a CLO warehouse, which does not carry any more credit risk as the underlying CLO equity has been priced. The realized IRR on this warehouse is to be confirmed shortly (after the very last settlement in April) but it should likely be between 25 and 30%.
Being at the end of the first quarter of this year, it makes sense to reassess our view for 2019. What we observed, almost everywhere in the credit markets and it is even more true in structured finance, is that, on average, the maturity curve and the credit curve are very steep. For CLO debt tranches it has been rare to see such a steep maturity curve (same rating assets are yielding far more with a long maturity than with a mid to short term maturity). This situation characterizes periods in which investors, are globally cautious in the way they deploy capital (avoiding long credit duration instruments and the most sensitive ones).
This situation is very encouraging for the rest of the year even though we continue to think that it is near the end of the economic and credit cycles and that at some point in time more volatility will come back. The fact that investors are cautious limits the probability of a brutal rise in volatility in the coming months/quarters. More and more we think that the probability of having in 2019 a second spike of volatility like the one we had in Q4 2018 is declining. This overall cautiousness makes us a bit more comfortable deploying all the capital (balancing risks) and avoiding having too much cash.
We continued increasing our CLO equity tranche exposure and reducing CLO debt tranches as the CLO equity tranches are already benefiting from the fact that spreads stopped tightening in loan markets (we have noticed for some months that the CLO managers we selected have been able to increase the WAS (Weighted Average Spread) of the underlying loan pools, generating higher cash flows to the CLO Equity positions).
In March, Volta generated the equivalent of €0.2m in interest and coupons net of repo costs (non-Euro amounts translated into Euro using end-of-month cross currency rates). This brings the total cash amount generated during the last six months in terms of interest and coupons to €19.6m.
As at the end of March 2019, Volta's NAV was €287.8m or €7.87 per share. The GAV stood at €326.3m.
*It should be noted that approximately 11.2% of Volta's GAV comprises investments for which the relevant NAVs as at the month-end date are normally available only after Volta's NAV has already been published. Volta's policy is to publish its own NAV on as timely a basis as possible in order to provide shareholders with Volta's appropriately up-to-date NAV information. Consequently, such investments are valued using the most recently available NAV for each fund or quoted price for such subordinated note. The most recently available fund NAV or quoted price was for 6.9% as at 28 February 2019, 2.9% as at 31 December 2018 and for 1.4% as at 28 September 2018. ** "Mark-to-market variation" is calculated as the Dietz-performance of the assets in each bucket, taking into account the Mark-to-Market of the assets at month-end, payments received from the assets over the period, and ignoring changes in cross currency rates. Nevertheless, some residual currency effects could impact the aggregate value of the portfolio when aggregating each bucket.

Gravity opens in theaters on October 4, 2013.
The Plot:
Dr. Ryan Stone (Bullock) is a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (Clooney). But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone—tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness. The deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth…and any chance for rescue. As fear turns to panic, every gulp of air eats away at what little oxygen is left. But the only way home may be to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.

~random thoughts for a sunday~
while grocery shopping with anna, i saw a sign for flu shots.
i told anna i need to make appointments for us all to get ours.
she started crying, loudly of course, so everyone could hear her, "mommy, why do i need a POO shot?"
why is it that just as i finish making a sandwich for the kids, they change their minds and want something else? and it's the end of the world until they get it?
before we went to work, john fed one of our ducks in the yard. he was running late, but it was obvious the duck was hungry, so he went in the house and got some bread for him. this is why i love this man. he is so kind--to everyone--and it shows.
here's proof that i do let my house get super messy. look at ben and his 'i'm home sick from school tearing up the living room' mess.
i wish i could say that ben is doing better, but he is teething so bad. you should see the size of these teeth that are breaking through! it makes me cringe just looking at them. so i've just been loving on him a little more than usual.
one last thing. i wish i had some good pics of josh to post, but he's at a friend's house.

"Globular Grid"
got me excited this week
(easy when I'm on break...).
I tried a number of new-to-me tangles, like Girdy, Gotcha, Équerre, & Phrox.
Old favorites included: Lanie, Lokomotive, Onamato, Striping, Shattuck, & Tipple.
This is a 4" apprentice tile using 005 & 08 black Microns & an 08 white Gelly Roll.

The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) unveiled the new design of the patent grant cover during a special ceremony at the South by Southwest (SXSW) Interactive Festival in Austin, Texas. The redesigned cover will debut on patent number 10 million which is expected to issue sometime in 2018.
"American ingenuity has been at the forefront of every major technological revolution of the past two centuries, from steam engines to flight, and from the biotechnology revolution to the information revolution," said Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the USPTO, Andrei Iancu. "This new patent design not only celebrates how far we've come and the new frontiers we have yet to explore, it also represents the cornerstone and the currency of an American intellectual property system that has given so much to the world and will continue to do so for ages to come."
The patent grant cover contains the physical document issued to inventors upon the granting of a U.S. patent. The 225-plus year history of the patent cover has seen fewer than a dozen basic designs since President George Washington granted the first patent in 1790. Previous designs featured calligraphy, elaborate engravings, and high-quality typesetting.
The patent office has only redesigned the document twice in the last hundred years, and the current design is more than 30 years old. A team of in-house USPTO graphic designers created the new patent cover design. After several iterations, Commissioner for Patents Drew Hirshfeld made the final selection.
"This new design portrays a modern day flair while reflecting the history of patent covers by taking design cues from 19th and early 20th century patent cover designs, mostly through the use of script typography and graphic ornaments," said Commissioner for Patents Drew Hirshfeld. "When our designers and Patents team were creating the new cover, we wanted to create a design worthy of the significant importance that the document itself has to inventors, and its significance as a physical representation of American invention and ingenuity."
The ceremony, which was co-sponsored by the National Inventors Hall of Fame (NIHF), also featured remarks from Ethernet inventor, 2007 NIHF inductee, and laureate of the National Medal of Technology and Innovation, Robert M. Metcalfe and IBM Master Inventor, Susann Keohane, IBM Global Research Leader for the Aging Initiative.

A prospective randomized, controlled trial of intravenous versus oral iron for moderate iron deficiency anaemia of pregnancy
Khalafallah, A and Dennis, A and Bates, J and Bates, G and Robertson, IK and Smith, L and Ball, MJ and Seaton, D and Brain, T and Rasko, JEJ, A prospective randomized, controlled trial of intravenous versus oral iron for moderate iron deficiency anaemia of pregnancy, Journal of Internal Medicine, 268, (3) pp. 286-295. ISSN 0954-6820 (2010) [Refereed Article]
DOI: doi:10.1111/j.1365-2796.2010.02251.x
Background. Iron deficiency anaemia is the most common deficiency disorder in the world, affecting more than one billion people, with pregnant women at particular risk. Objectives and design. We conducted a single site, prospective, nonblinded randomized-controlled trial to compare the efficacy, safety, tolerability and compliance of standard oral daily iron versus intravenous iron Subjects. We prospectively screened 2654 pregnant women between March 2007 and January 2009 with a full blood count and iron studies, of which 461 (18%) had moderate IDA. Two hundred women matched for haemoglobin concentration and serum ferritin level were recruited. Interventions. Patients were randomized to daily oral ferrous sulphate 250 mg (elemental iron 80 mg) with or without a single intravenous iron polymaltose infusion. Results. Prior to delivery, the intravenous plus oral iron arm was superior to the oral iron only arm as measured by the increase in haemoglobin level (mean of 19.5 g/L vs. 12 g/L; P < 0.001); the increase in mean serum ferritin level (222 μg/L vs. 18 ug/L; P < 0.001); and the percentage of mothers with ferritin levels below 30 μg/L (4.5% vs. 79%; P < 0.001). A single dose of intravenous iron polymaltose was well tolerated without significant side effects. Conclusions. Our data indicate that intravenous iron polymaltose is safe and leads to improved efficacy and iron stores compared to oral iron alone in pregnancy-related IDA. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.
