You are courageous, but be careful to not go to such extremes that you are foolhardy, as this inclines you to mishaps. Personal magnetism is tremendous this year. You are playfully competitive and might win a major competition, if applicable. This is a good period for creative projects and joining with others in pursuing a common goal. You are more willing than usual to make sacrifices if it seems the best way to make improvements in relationships and with money matters.
February 1 Zodiac Birthday Horoscope Personality
You can be quite particular in your tastes, and good with money and savings this year. Even so, Venus in challenging aspect to Saturn suggests some ups and downs in the year ahead. Getting serious about love or money or both will be a theme this year. You are more aware than usual of your limits and this can lead to a more structured approach to spending and saving. This gives you the chance to bring more order or structure into your life as you recognize needs for security.
Watch for a tendency to become involved in power struggles and one-upmanship, and watch for asserting yourself defensively or explosively. You should make extra effort to respect and validate others when expressing what you need and want.
February 1 Birthday Horoscope 2017-2018
You crave and seek more freedom this year, and how you deal with this issue makes all the difference as to the overriding themes of the year. If you recognize your need for changes in key areas of your life and adapt accordingly, this can be an exciting year of discovery. However, if you resist change and insist on keeping things status quo, you are bound to feel very restless, tense, and rebellious.
Either way, making healthy changes should be the focus instead of change just for the sake of change.
Spontaneity, not impulsiveness, is the key to success this year. Fortunately, you have a lot of cosmic support for this. You have great initiative this year. You may feel that you are starting a whole new chapter in your life, and starting fresh in at least one key area of your life is likely. You can be particularly focused on certain projects and concentration levels increase.
The year ahead is strong for making lifestyle changes, particularly related to money and relationships. Work on your ability to pace yourself, as it will lead to greater happiness and health. A more organized approach to money and business can work well for you now. Ruled by Uranus. Consequently they are unprejudiced and tolerant of other points of view.
This is because they can see the validity of the argument, even if they do not accept it themselves. They obey the Quaker exhortation to "Be open to truth, from whatever source it comes," and are prepared to learn from everyone. Both types are humane, frank, serious minded, genial, refined, sometimes ethereal, and idealistic, though this last quality is tempered with a sensible practicality. They are quick, active and persevering without being self-assertive, and express themselves with reason, moderation and sometimes, a dry humor.
They are nearly always intelligent, concise, clear and logical. Many are strongly imaginative and psychically intuitive, so that the Age of Aquarius, which is about to begin, is much anticipated by psychic circles as an age in which mankind will experience a great spiritual awakening. The Aquarian philosophical and spiritual bent may be dangerous in that it can drive the subjects into an ivory-tower existence where they meditate on abstractions that bear little relevance to life. On the other hand it can help the many who have scientific leanings to combine these with the Aquarian yearning for the universal recognition of the brotherhood of man, and to embark on scientific research to fulfill their philanthropic ideals of benefiting mankind.
When some cause or work of this nature inspires them, they are capable of such devotion to it that they may drive themselves to the point of exhaustion and even risk injuring their health. Both types need to retire from the world at times and to become temporary loners. They appreciate opportunities for meditation or, if they are religious, of retreats. Even in company they are fiercely independent, refusing to follow the crowd.
They dislike interference by others, however helpfully intended, and will accept it only on their own terms. Normally they have good taste in drama, music and art, and are also gifted in the arts, especially drama. In spite of the often intensely magnetic, forthcoming and open personality of the more extrovert kind of Aquarian, and of their desire to help humanity, neither type makes friends easily.
February 1 Birthday Horoscope
They sometimes appear to condescend to others and take too little trouble to cultivate the acquaintance of people who do not particularly appeal to them. They do not give themselves easily - perhaps their judgment of human nature is too good for that - and are sometimes accounted cold.
But once they decide that someone is worthy of their friendship or love, they can exert an almost hypnotic and irresistible mental attraction on them and will themselves become tenacious friends or lovers, ready to sacrifice everything for their partners and be faithful to them for life. However, they are sometimes disappointed emotionally because their own high personal ideals cause them to demand more of others than is reasonable. And if they are deceived their anger is terrible. If disillusioned, they do not forgive. Aquarians work best in group projects, provided that they are recognized as having a leading part in them.
They have a feeling of unity with nature and a desire for knowledge and truth that makes them admirable scientists, especially astronomers and natural historians. This is a day of multiple choices and a constant battle between the masculine and the feminine within.
It is one of the true pointers to what an opposition of Aquarius carries in its core. Such a simple combination of lights in a planetary row, speaks of simplicity needed for a person born on this date to feel confident and satisfied. While they will be strongly pulled by their inner drive, breaking all boundaries, while confident in their approach, this could turn out to be a personality image, rather than the true manifestation of their core. Their task is to connect and balance out the masculine and the feminine within, serious and tuned into adulthood from the moment of birth.
These people must learn how to give and receive love and inspiration in a balanced way, providing other people with what they need and still managing to keep their personal boundaries intact. The Sabian symbol for Aquarius representatives born on February 1st of a leap year and two years preceding it:. The Sabian symbol for Aquarius representatives born on February 1st of a year following a leap year:.
When these two symbols combine, we can presume that they speak of limitations and overcoming personal boundaries with diversity. The pull of the upper spheres is strong here, and these individuals tend to look into the skies for answers, feeling the weight of every thought they have while trying to be proactively spiritual.
Pressure makes diamonds, and as they come to terms with their circumstances, discover their faith and their sense of responsibility, they will start recognizing their true qualities and value. The deepest, honest feeling they nurture inside their heart is what makes them truly special, and gives them a chance to embrace differences in other people. It is this diversity that will ultimately lead them towards success.
February 1st is the date of high aspirations and goals, and those born on this day have a task to find the direction that makes them feel at home. They will get educated and yearn for knowledge, receiving it through certified institutions or the streets, depending on their circumstances in early childhood.
They need to visualize things that are coming behind the curve, and feel optimistic about the outcome of each situation at hand. If they become too rational and skeptical, the world won't support their growth until they learn about flexibility and become more respectful for people in their life. February 1st is a date that brings promise of an inner battle between freedom and togetherness.

A friend of mine recently took delivery of a new Nikon 1 J5 with two kit lenses, the 10-30 mm PD zoom and 30-110 mm f/3.8-5.6 zoom. We visited the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory this morning to help him get some practice time with his new gear. I'll be posting a few articles based on the images I took this morning. This one features a selection of 30-110 mm plant macro images. Continue reading 30-110mm Plant Macro Images

Butterfly images with Nikon 1 J5
Visiting the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory is always an enjoyable experience. There is a wonderful assortment of butterflies free-flying in the facility, as well as interesting flowers. I decided to spend a couple of hours capturing butterfly images with a Nikon 1 J5, 1 Nikon 30-110 mm f/3.8-5.6 VR zoom lens, and some MOVO extension tubes thrown in for good measure. Continue reading Butterfly images with Nikon 1 J5
A treasure trove of little lizards
Many of us who are fortunate enough to live in or visit warmer climates have seen small lizards scurrying about. These little critters can make intriguing subjects for photographs if we can find a way to get close enough to them. I was able to capture a few images of small lizards with my Nikon 1 gear during a recent one-week trip to Cuba. Continue reading A treasure trove of little lizards
Photographing small sea shells with Nikon 1 J4
Sometimes plans go awry and we end up experimenting in ways we didn't originally plan. So it was for me today. I was going to test my new Nikon 1 J4 with extension tubes at the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory, but discovered the facility is closed all next week. So instead I ended up photographing some small sea shells at home. Continue reading Photographing small sea shells with Nikon 1 J4
Butterflies with 1 Nikon 10-100 f/4-5.6

Movo Extension Tubes Hands-On Review
As some regular readers know I've been experiencing some quality and durability issues with my Vello Extension Tubes for Nikon 1. These tubes are in the process of being redesigned with metal mounts which should be a significant improvement over the plastic mount version currently available. Since I do a fair amount of work with my Nikon 1 gear with extension tubes I didn't have the luxury of time to wait for the redesigned tubes. I decided to investigate some other options and recently I purchased a set of Movo Extension Tubes for Nikon 1. Their main selling feature are the metal mounts. What follows is a brief Movo Extension Tube hands-on review. Continue reading Movo Extension Tubes Hands-On Review
Using Movo Extension Tubes with Nikon 1
Since, at the present time, there are no native Nikon 1 macro lenses available, many owners of Nikon 1 gear use extension tubes instead. For many folks their decision comes down to using extension tubes with either the Nikon 1 30-110 mm f/3.8-5.6 or the Nikon 1 CX 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 lenses.
I recently purchased a set of Movo Extension Tubes for Nikon 1 and I thought it may be interesting to compare the 'magnification effect' of the various Movo Extension Tubes with these two lenses when mounted on my Nikon 1 V2's. The basic question is, "When using Movo Extension Tubes with Nikon 1, which set up works best?" Continue reading Using Movo Extension Tubes with Nikon 1
Images of Butterflies Feeding
I recently purchased a set of Movo extension tubes for Nikon 1 and I went out today to the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory to do a bit of fieldwork for my corresponding review. In the process of doing that work I was able to capture some unusual images that I thought I'd share with readers in advance of my extension tube review.
As many of you know I like to push things a bit from time to time and after a bit of shooting at the Conservatory I decided to link all three Movo Extension tubes together (10 mm, 16 mm, 21 mm) to see what would happen. Well…it ended up being quite an interesting couple of hours and I was able to capture a few images of butterflies feeding. Continue reading Images of Butterflies Feeding
Photographing bees with Nikon 1 J5
I thought it might be fun to try photographing bees with the new Nikon 1 J5 so I went out in the backyard for about 40 minutes or so to see what kind of images I could capture. Continue reading Photographing bees with Nikon 1 J5

A day for celebration – reaching Honningsvåg
This is Børge again. So much has been happening that I simply haven't had time to keep up with my reports. Everything went well in Murmansk; we passed through customs and got our passports stamped. Then our captain set sail for the North Cape. Due to strong winds, we were unable to reach shore there, instead continuing a little further south on that peninsula, to the town of Honningsvåg. With our safe arrival there, we felt we had cause for a real celebration, and we donned the tuxedos that were waiting for us to enjoy traditional smoked mutton and a lively evening. We had booked in advance, only the date was slightly uncertain; I had been looking forward to this for a long time.
From Honningsvåg, Thomas returned to Switzerland, while I boarded the SS "Athene" for the last seaborne leg of my expedition – onward to Bodø. There I will change my mode of transportation, continuing on two wheels and setting my sights on Oslo.
At this very moment we are entering the port of Tromsø. It's quite a moment for me; for it is exactly the same date, and in fact the same time of date, that Fridtjof Nansen and Hjalmar Johanssen sailed in to Tromsø by boat 111 years ago, in 1896.
This has been one incredible expedition for Thomas and me – we've experienced amazing things together. Later I will try to convey more of this through a book and a film, so I am hoping that those who are following our expedition here will have something to look forward to.
I also want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude all those who have follow our journey across the Arctic Sea in the footsteps of Nansen, from the North Pole to the southernmost point of Frants Josef Land. We have greatly appreciated the messages and good wishes that we have received.
Thank you!
Time for celebration! But the barber only had time for Thomas before the Arctic explorers put on their tuxedos.

It may just have been a hot day. This character's ego -- like that of the Clintons, who knew and know no shame -- is enormous and so tough I doubt he has any ability to feel at all. Everything he does is calculated for effect. Like all "Progressives" and their fawning handmaidens known as The Mainstream Media, these people have known for decades that simply IGNORING any and all opposition has the effect of weakening and neutralizing it.
Someone who MAY give Obama & CO cause to sweat however may be found in this YouTube link:
FROM THE VIDEO TAPES OF THE FLOOR OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Congressman Mike Rogers of Michigan speaks out plainly and eloquently against government mandated, government-controlled medical care. LISTEN!
Mike Rogers of Michigan and Joe Wilson of S. Carolina -- along with the great Ron Paul of Texas -- are emerging as our best hope. long may they remain free from corruption!

Agree with Jungle Mom. He's way out of his element of that Chicago mob. Even though he's brought a lot of them with him, it's got to be frustrating to face critical examination when you're used to passing the buck and talking out of both sides of your mouth while the "machine" silences your critics.
So I think what's bugging him most is how to silence his critics.
Hint: Mr. President, that limp-wristed tail-between-the-legs UN speech is NOT a step in that direction.

I should hope that it is his own foriegn policy screw-ups. He is not leading on the 'good war' in Afganistan, which is giving the MSM, and his own party an opportunity to to say that maybe it is time to get out.
And then there is Iran! He has given Israel good reason to think that they cannot count on Obama to cover their back. They may decide to take unilateral action against Irans nuclear installations. Which really puts him between a rock and a hard place.
Of course, he could just be sweating because the 'birthers' are getting closer to finding his 'real' birth certificate.

Let's examine this for just a moment. As far as he and his minions are concerned, they were elected by a LANDslide with a massive MANDATE for change. And yet, with the "change" so far implemented, his popularity has plummeted, the Demorats have not YET been able to freely walk off with their primary bills.
And this deSPITE the fact that Mr Obama is on the television literally every day, the DEM/MSM PURPOSELY omits information that might diminish Our Hero, and they promote him whenever possible.
Of ALL the networks on which Mr Obama recently appeared, the ONLY network ignored was -- ? You guessed it, that hideous Fox News.

Businesses that have come to rely on "gig workers" and workers who have been pushed, perhaps unwillingly, into insecure contract work may now have serious reasons to recalculate their prospects. Dynamex stands for the proposition that if it walks like wage theft and quacks like wage theft, it may not be a wonderful opportunity for entrepreneurship. Johnson says that was true yesterday, too.
Wage Theft
VCG-IS, LLC, is a gentlemen's club that does business as Imperial Showgirls. Oriana Johnson alleges that she and other exotic dancers were misclassified as independent contractors rather than employees in violation of the wage and hour provisions of the California Labor Code. In their Private Attorney General Action (PAGA) claim, they specifically assert that Imperial Showgirls failed to:
• pay all wages owed, including minimum wage (also making improper deductions from wages);
• provide meal breaks, rest breaks and accurate itemized wage statements; and
• allow the dancers to retain gratuities.
Perhaps because of the industry in which they work, the dancers may have been denied the protections of law otherwise available to California workers. The underlying facts and alleged violations go back to 2015.The complaint also names affiliated companies VGC Holding Corp. and International Entertainment Consultants, Inc., as joint employers.
Procedural Complexities
The ruling, itself, is somewhat complex because the dancers' claims were brought under California's PAGA statute, rather than under a state Wage Order, as Dynamex claims had been. The Superior Court ultimately limited its ruling concerning retroactivity to exclude the tip claim and liability of joint employers. However, these aspects could easily become the subject of future challenges, according to the dancers' attorney.
The wage claims survived. Relying on the fact that the California labor law violations described by the Dynamex plaintiffs went back as much as 13 years before the decision was rendered (far longer than the look back period requested in Johnson) the Superior Court ruled that Imperial Showgirls' liability could go back three years from the date of the Complaint. Employers can be expected to continue to raise due process arguments about the retroactive application of the interpretation.
Why Dynamex Matters
Before the California Supreme Court's decision in Dynamex, the complicated question of whether a worker was an employee and thus entitled to certain statutory protections, or an independent contractor and not so entitled, was determined according to a multifactor, weighted-according-to-situation set of circumstances described in S.G. Borello & Sons, Inc. v. Dept. of Industrial Relations .
It was complicated, fact-dependent and employer-friendly. The answer might be different for tax and workers compensation purposes. Workers had the burden of proof to show that they were employees.
The Superior Court's decision in Dynamex reversed those presumptions. All workers are presumed to be employees and thus entitled to certain legal protections unless there is convincing evidence to the contrary.
The ABC Test
Under Dynamex, in order for a business to show that a worker is not an employee, the business must demonstrate all three of the following things:
(A) the worker is free from the control and direction of the hiring entity in connection with the performance of the work, both under the contract for the performance of the work and in fact; and
(B) the worker performs work that is outside the usual course of the hiring entity's business; and
(C) the worker is customarily engaged in an independently established trade, occupation, or business of the same nature as the work performed.
Failing any one of those three measures means that a worker is an employee. Prong B has caused the most concern, so far.
The Strippers and Prong B
If the business of a food delivery organization is to deliver food, it is hard to argue that the drivers who drive around to deliver the food perform a service that is outside the usual course of the hiring entity's business.
In truth, very few businesses that employ independent contractors can get past Prong B. That is why the employer community is up in arms. Add to that the retroactive effect of Johnson, and it becomes clear how the possibilities of litigation to enforce wage claims have changed in the last few months.
Might the California Supreme Court or the Ninth Circuit limit either Dynamex or Johnson? Might the California legislature do the same? Strong efforts will certainly come to bear because of the importance of this issue for both businesses and workers.

A few years ago I was introduced to the wonderful world of cruises! Something which I had previously thought was exclusively for old people, I can announce that cruises are fun for young people too! I don't know if I am the only person who would have thought that but before meeting my boyfriend (whose family introduced mine to cruising) the only person I knew who had ever been on a cruise was my grandma.
As I said, my boyfriend and his family have been going in cruises for years and highly recommended it for my mum, sister and I. So, with some guidance from them we went on our first cruise in 2016.
When I did go on my first cruise it was a bit overwhelming and while some elements overlap with a regular holiday, others are extremely different. So, I thought I would collate a few tips & notes for any newbies to cruising so you can be as prepared as possible!
- Packing your hand luggage – You could be without access to your room and suitcase for a while so make sure you have everything you need in your hand luggage. If you're already in a hot country this may include swimwear, suncream etc.
- Other packing – Unlike on flights, you don't have a luggage limit for cruises and therefor don't have to suffer the guilt of hugely overpacking or stress about getting charged extra! Pack anything and everything you think you will want or need, no worries! Obviously, if you are flying to another location to board the ship you will still have to adhere to those flight restrictions.
- Scout out your destinations & pre-book excursions – If you want to go on an excursion for any of your stops on the cruise make sure to book them before boarding to be guaranteed a space. These will get more expensive as spaces decrease so to get the best deal, book sooner rather than later.
- Drinks packages – This one might require a bit of calculating but if you are someone who likes to drink a lot (alcoholic or otherwise) it is worth checking out the drinks packages on board. But don't get caught out as if you aren't going to use them to the full capacity it is probably just worth paying for your drinks as you go.
- It's big – You can never fully appreciate how big a cruise ship is until you have seen one in person. It's kind of mind boggling to understand how something so massive and heavy can travel across the ocean with sometimes thousands of passengers on board! So, fully take it in and get some good pics of the ship in all its glory!
- Download the app, find a map – It's going to take a while to get a grasp around how big the ship is and then try to find your way around it. So, make sure you go on a bit of an exploration to find out where everything important is and then try your best to remember. Typically you'll get to grips with everything in the last couple of days just before you finish (but once you have been on one cruise, they all seem to be a fairly similar in layout).
- WIFI – While it can be available, cruise WIFI is horribly expensive so make sure you check your phone policy on travelling abroad or set up a pre-paid system so you don't get stuck with some insane charges! Also bare in mind that while in international waters you are unlikely to get much signal or data at all.
- Fancy dress – This is smart wear not costumes. Most cruises have formal or even themed nights so find out before you get on board and pack accordingly. Examples may be different colour themes or tropical nights etc.
- Sun loungers – If you're going to a hot and sunny destination and have a couple of days at sea, you may want to spend some time sunbathing on deck. Like a hotel pool there are a very limited number of sun loungers and therefore you will have to be ahead of the game to get your seats!
- On-board activities – While you can chose to relax, sunbathe, read a book, there are also a huge number of activities going on throughout the day across the ship. Depending on the ship you go on there will be different activities and facilities (such as water slides and surf simulators). However, one of the main things that played a huge part in our cruises was on-board quizzes! There were probably 5 quizzes (minimum) a day that we were trying to get to. All information about the daily activities should be included in the ships itinerary.
- Shopping – On the big cruise ships as well as restaurants and activities there are also shops on board. Varying from clothes and jewellery to toiletries. So, if you do forget anything at home, hopefully you should be able to get all the essentials on board!
- SO MUCH FOOD – Just be prepared that you will be well catered for food-wise on a cruise. This is not the kind of holiday for someone looking to lose weight and you will really be missing out if you don't full immerse yourself in the amazing catering on board the ship! Not only is the food quality great and with loads of options but food is also available basically all hours of the day and night. While there are some special restaurants that might cost extra on board, the majority of the buffets are included in your holiday package so you can eat to your hearts content!
I hope this has been helpful for anyone going on or looking at cruises! Comment below if you have any other cruising tips or stories!

To get started you'll require a dress. Luckily for you, there are many dresses out there which feature a 20s style, but using a modern twist. You may want to get started considering your prom with respect to seasons.
Its your wedding and you need to have just what you wanteven if it's a Star Wars wedding cake straight from the galaxy by Disney Weddings. Just to be certain no one has shown up at the incorrect wedding. For example, if it is a conventional wedding, dress in a timeless tux. If it's a modern wedding or themed wedding, then dress in line with the theme and fashion. Perhaps you would like a modern wedding but a conventional cake.
Every live band wants a leader. Jazz bands arrive in an assortment of styles and sizes, and there are a number of crucial points to finding the ideal band for your reception. Pick a song that everybody knows. Tell them exactly how and when you would like the song to take place. Deciding on a group participation song here will be an excellent signal to start the party!
A cake may still be fabulous with only a single tier. Wedding cakes are something that everybody remembers. If that's the case, a gorgeous travel cake is excellent for your big day by Charm City Cakes.

When the U.S. Navy ended its climate task force, Arctic issues were sidelined too, experts say
By: Melody Schreiber - ArcticToday - 9-10-19
RE: https://www.arctictoday.com/when-the...o-experts-say/
If you don't know who's in charge, then the answer is probably nobody's in charge.
Photo link: https://www.arctictoday.com/wp-conte...-2889B-001.jpg
The guided-missile cruiser USS Normandy (CG 60) navigates through an ice field in Arctic waters north of Iceland on June 12, 2007. (Lt. J.G. Ryan Birkelbach / U.S. Navy)
Earlier this year, the U.S. Navy quietly stood down Task Force Climate Change, the decade-long mission to understand and plan for rapid environmental changes around the globe.
But that task force also played a large role in forming the Navys Arctic outlook, and its unclear now who in the Navy is now responsible for monitoring the rapidly changing Arctic.
Last week, MSNBCs Andrea Mitchell asked former secretary of defense Gen. James Mattis about the end of the task force. He declined to comment on the group specifically, citing a lack of details, but he did warn against ignoring climate change especially changing conditions in the Arctic.
We are dealing with open waters that used to be ice fields, he said, and he called climate change a national security issue. Why wouldnt we take out an insurance policy and do prudent steps to make certain the generation thats coming up is not going to be caught flat-footed by this?
While the task forces focus was on climate change around the world, the Arctic drew outsized scrutiny because of the rapid changes opening up a new ocean, as some have called it.
In May, Adm. John Richardson, then the chief of naval operations, said that climate change was creating new potential security threats and hazards to military infrastructure. The Arctic is a very dynamic situation in response to this climate change, he said at a maritime event. But Richardson retired at the end of last month, and its unclear where his successor, Adm. Michael Gilday, stands on these issues.
Retired Rear Adm. Jon White, who led the task force from 2012 to 2015, told ArcticToday that the task force was the main catalyst for keeping the Navys senior leadership informed and attentive to the region.
The uncertainty around who is now monitoring the region will likely have implications for the Navys future Arctic activities and strategies.
Whos in charge of planning for the Arctic? asked White, who is now CEO and president of the Consortium for Ocean Leadership. Whos in charge of informing the chief of naval operations whats happening with climate change?
Only a few years ago, the Navy was taking a leadership role in trying to understand how climate change would affect strategy, operations and infrastructure, White said, and how it would change the balance of global powers in the future.
But standing down this task force without creating another Arctic monitoring body is an indication that the Navy has lost focus on the region.
I dont see a lot of that going on today, White said. So I do have concerns.
The task force, which began in 2009, ended in March without public reports on how the mission was achieved and who is responsible for next steps which is unusual for the end of such an undertaking, White said. It was just sort of, Eh, I think were done, bye.
The final document issued by the task force was the Navys strategic outlook on the Arctic, quietly released in January.
Sherri Goodman, a senior fellow at the Wilson Center and the former U.S. deputy undersecretary of defense, said strategies like these can be important for understanding how the military will operate in a world where weather, climate and other natural systems are much less predictable than theyve been in the past.
You want to know what your drivers are, what the forces shaping your strategy or plans to do operations, she told ArcticToday. But at this point, she said, its unclear how and to what extent the Navy is planning for changes especially in the North.
The Navy had already decided quite a while ago to give much lower priority to these matters, Goodman said. But the next chief of naval operations has an opportunity to lead on these issues, she added.
The less awareness we show of how climate change is affecting Arctic security, the less likely we are to be prepared for those changes when they happen, Goodman said. And we ignore it at our peril.
Of course, task forces dont usually last forever usually a few years or even months. They end when the mission has been completed, or when a new task force is created and includes previous work.
A Navy spokesperson told E&E News that climate change has been folded into existing business processes, although its not clear how or when the task forces unfinished missions were integrated into existing programs or offices, and who is now responsible for monitoring changes. The Navy did not respond to ArcticTodays inquiries by the time of publication.
But White argued that having a point person is key for managing a topic like climate change and a region like the Arctic.
If you dont know whos in charge, then the answer is probably nobodys in charge, he said.
White was quick to emphasize the ongoing work of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, which continues to examine the effects of environmental change, including in the Arctic. And the Navy has conducted subsurface and surface operations in the Arctic including potential plans for an Arctic operation this year.
But the Navy has no ice-capable ships, which limits its operational abilities in the North. That has always been a concern, White said. When he was in charge of the task force, he said, they tried to include building ice-capable vessels in their long-range and strategic planning including in the Navys Arctic Roadmap in 2014. That document was supplanted by the strategic outlook released this year, which doesnt specifically mention upgrading the Navys capabilities in the Arctic.
It seems to largely have gone nowhere, White said.
O Almighty Lord God, who neither slumberest nor sleepest; Protect and assist, we beseech thee, all those who at home or abroad, by land, by sea, or in the air, are serving this country, that they, being armed with thy defence, may be preserved evermore in all perils; and being filled with wisdom and girded with strength, may do their duty to thy honour and glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

i have made a mistake with regards dealing with the halifax with on overdraft and one of their credit cards.
When i first got into this i just stopped paying with the intention of dealing with them with the notices ect. i got sidetracked with all the other companies im dealing with that i forgot to come back to it.
upto now i have'nt send anything or spoken to them and as yet they have'nt sent me a notice of default.
So what i was thinking was bringing the accounts upto date and then starting the process of notices.
I think it was huntingross the pointed out on another thread that it is better to make payments until you have gone through the process otherwise you default which adds controversy on your part. This makes sense hence why im thinking of bringing the account upto date.
Can anyone offer any advice on the above.
many thanks

- Pasta (50-60g per person) - We use linguine but anything you have will do.
- 2 tbsp half-fat creme fraiche
- 2 tbsp pesto
- cherry tomatoes - as many as you like, halved
- 1 courgette, diced
- 1 or 2 chicken breasts cut into strips
- Olive oil
- Fresh basil
- Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil and fry the chicken. After a minute add the courgette.
- Mix the creme fraiche and pesto together.
- Just as the chicken and courgette seems done throw in your cherry tomatoes and cook for about a minute, or until the tomatoes begin to soften. (Not too long or they will turn to sauce!)
- Add the pesto and creme fraiche mix, plus some basil leaves (about 10), to the chicken pan and heat through, covering the other ingredients.
- Drain the pasta, plate up and serve the chicken and sauce on top. Sprinkle with some more basil leaves if you want.
Note: You can make more of less sauce really easily and add as much chicken as you like to suit all appetites and tastes, less pesto or more could be added too.

A City of Vancouver warning became reality over the weekend as dummies made up to be dead and deformed bodies were seen in cars on the 400-block of Seymour Street.
On Saturday, the City of Vancouver warned residents on Twitter that "there will be filming taking place in downtown (400-block Seymour St.) which involves highly visible graphic content including dead bodies, trash & debris, shouting of course language & gunfire. Please do not be alarmed if you're in the area."
The warning is related to a CBS All Access 10-episode miniseries being shot in Vancouver based on Stephen King's fantasy/horror epic The Stand.
The production is being filmed under the working title Radio Nowhere and will star Alexander Skarsgard, James Marsden, Whoopi Goldberg, Amber Heard, Greg Kinnear and shock rocker Marilyn Manson. Manson and fellow musician Shooter Jennings, son of Waylon, also teamed up for a cover of The End by The Doors that will be used in the miniseries.
The Stand tells the story of a post-apocalyptic world — left in ruins by a man-made influenza virus that kills most people — in which survivors group up and fight among each other.
On Sunday, buses and cars were staged on Seymour Street with dummies made to look like dead and deformed people draped over them, inside the vehicles and in one case collapsed into the open trunk of a vehicle.
The Stand was published in 1978.

Salsa Fish Snapper Veracruz
This recipe originally appeared on the Rachael Ray Show. For more recipes and videos from the show visit RachaelRayShow.com.
This is a fun, family-friendly mild fish dish. Kids love the topping because it looks like salsa!
- 4 red snapper fillets (7-8 ounces)
- Salt and pepper
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground green chili powder (New Mexican Chili Powder) or mild to medium red chili powder blend, such as Gebhardt's brand
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small red or Spanish onion, chopped
- 2 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced or chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Mexican dry oregano
- 1/4 cup pickled jalapeño pepper slices, chopped plus 2 tablespoons juice
- 1 large fresh bay leaf
- 2 pints fresh cherry or grape tomatoes or 1 can diced tomatoes (28 ounces)
- 1/2 cup Manzanilla olives (green olives stuffed with pimentos), chopped
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons each chopped cilantro (optional) and flat leaf parsley
- Charred soft corn tortillas, for serving
- undefined
Pre-heat the oven to 250°F.
Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Mix the flour with cumin, coriander, chili powder and sesame seeds; coat fish on both sides.
In a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, heat olive oil, three turns of the pan. When the oil smokes, add the fish and brown for 3 minutes on each side, pressing on the filets to keep them from curling. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven.
Add a little more oil to the pan, a turn of the pan, then add the onion, garlic, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano, and stir for a minute or two. Add the tomatoes and cover the pan until the tomatoes burst (if using fresh) or partially cover to simmer the canned tomatoes with the onion. Stir the olives into the sauce along with the lime juice, cilantro and parsley; adjust the seasoning, add the fish to the sauce, then transfer to plates and serve with soft tortillas, for wrapping.

One night at dinner, I asked my 9-year-old son who was his best friend. He thought about it for a few seconds and then asked, "Can I pick more than one?" I wasn't surprised by his inquiry. He is a likeable kid and makes friends easily. People are naturally drawn to his charm and kind spirit. The only thing he likes more than hanging out with his friends is making new friends. If he sees a kid who is being left out, he will do his best to make him feel included.
My son's friendly nature warms my heart. I love that he is so outgoing, caring and concerned about others. I was not like him when I was his age. Instead, I was more like my 11-year-old daughter – quiet, reserved, and introverted.
My daughter has never made friends as easily as my son does. From kindergarten to third grade, she struggled to connect with the other girls. It wasn't until she was about 9-years-old that she finally found her BFF – Carrie* (name has been changed to protect privacy)…Read the rest of the article on my blog at Goldfish Smiles (disclosure – I'm a paid member of the Goldfish team.

Meet Bailey! I've known Bailey almost her entire life so she's basically family! I was so excited when she asked if I'd do a fun photoshoot with her. Of course I will! While I was in Utah in July we came up with lots of fun ideas and ultimately decided that The Love Letter Museum in Salt Lake was where we should take the photos. I'm so glad that's where we ended up. Bailey loooooves to read so I felt like this was a perfect setting for her personality. It also worked out well that it was good entertainment for my kids because I had to drag them along with me on this one. They love Bailey just as much as I do, if not more. They keep asking when they get to go back to Bailey's house. So needless to say, they were happy to tag along.
I've been taking pictures of Bailey and her family since I was in high school. And I babysat Bailey and her younger brother for a few years before that even. Let's not talk about how long ago that was. Like I said, we're pretty much family.
Bailey is an incredibly smart, witty, fun and bubbly girl with lots of sass! I can say that because I've got sass too. Our moms gave it to us. She teaches 6th grade and is an awesome teacher. Her students love her and I know they have a good time with her.
She's been through a lot in the last several years because of a car accident that she was in with her mom. She's suffered a lot because of that accident but she's overcome so much as well. She is stronger because of it and is becoming an amazing person. You can read more about her accident and the things she's gone through on her blog called Scars to Your Beautiful. I wanted these pictures to show her how amazing and beautiful and fun she is. We all need someone on the outside to show us that for ourselves sometimes. I hope that these photos do that for her. I'm so happy that we were able to do this fun photoshoot together and I can't wait to do it again.

Prince George may head to Boarding School in the future due to two possible reasons.
Richard Fitzwilliams, a royal expert, told Express that Prince William and Kate Middleton's decision to send their son to boarding school will depend on how happy he could be in the institution.
Since Prince George is only 5 years old, the royal couple won't have to make the decision anytime soon.
"As a child develops certain characteristics come to the fore and they will want to make sure George is happy, that is the really important aspect. Alongside that is security and, if it is going to be a boarding school, there will be a matter of convenience so commuting will have to be feasible," he said.
Fitzwilliams said that Prince George should go to a school where his full potential will be realized.
"As George develops and we see where his interests lie, there will be certain schools that specialize in certain subjects and areas. Kate and William will take into account the obvious academic excellence of the school that they think will best suit George depending on where his strengths lie because one of the purposes of anyone's education is to play to their strengths," he explained.
Additionally, Kat Hopps, a journalist for Express, noted that another reason why Prince George may head to boarding school, later on, is because his grandfather, Prince Charles, and dad, Prince William, also went to one.
Prince Charles attended Gordonstoun, and Prince William and Prince Harry were sent to Eton in Berkshire as boarders. In college, Prince William and Middleton both attended Marlborough College.
But Fitzwilliams said that it is highly unlikely for Prince George to also go to Eton College because it is not a mixed-sex school. Rumors are also ripe that he may enroll at Brighton College later on in his life.
"The move would not be a surprise, it would be seen as modernizing. I would be surprised simply because George will one day be the future King. However, it is a time of change," he said.

Foundry's shares today fell $26, or 21 percent, to $98.13 by market close.
Financial analysts believe Foundry's shares fell because its sequential revenue growth of 27 percent paled in comparison to recent quarterly results from two other young networking companies. Juniper Networks recently announced sequential revenue growth of 80 percent, while Alteon WebSystems shot up 77 percent.
"Foundry was in the unenviable position of having to release its results on the backside of two white-hot growth stories," Salomon Smith Barney analyst B. Alexander Henderson said in a report. "Investors are likely to...make the erroneous assumption that Foundry should have produced similar results. In our opinion, the performance of Foundry was strong."
Foundry announced second-quarter earnings that beat Wall Street predictions by 3 cents on soaring sales of its network equipment.
Excluding non-cash charges, Foundry's second-quarter net income was $23.5 million, or 19 cents per share, compared with income of $5 million, or 5 cents per share, during the same period a year ago. Analysts expected Foundry to earn 16 cents per share, according to a survey by First Call/Thomson Financial.
Second-quarter revenue rose 269 percent, from $24.1 million last year to $88.8 million this year.
Including its non-cash charges, Foundry's second-quarter profits were $22.5 million, or 18 cents a share, compared with $2 million, or 2 cents per share, during the same time last year.
Foundry builds network equipment that speeds Net traffic for businesses and Internet service providers. The strong quarterly earnings represent the company's fourth consecutive profitable quarter since it went public last September.
Foundry's gross margins rose slightly, from 64.5 percent last quarter to 65.7 percent.
"We hit all our major objectives--revenue, profitability--and now we're higher...with gross margins, and we have our new products out," said Foundry chief executive Bobby Johnson, referring to recently released high-end routing devices intended to compete with Cisco Systems and Juniper Networks.

The St. Francis Brooklyn Terriers fell 66-56 to the St .John's Red Storm at Carnesecca Arena at St. John's University.
With the loss the Terriers fall to 2-1.
Sophomore Leah Fechko led the Terriers with 15 points and eight rebounds .St. John's sophomore guard Aliyyah Handford led all scorers with 19 points.
Terriers head coach John Thurston was happy with the way his team played. But saw they made some mistakes.
"In the beginning of the game, we were a little nervous coming into St. John's and their history. We were down 13-4 and came back and went up five. The key of the game was the first five minutes of the second half where we couldn't make a shot. If you are going to beat St. John's on the road. You can't make mental mistakes you need to make everything count. You need to make open shots," Thurston said. "We battled, it could have been a 25 point loss. We were down 15 kept on battling, and scraping. We played this game to see what it is like in the atmosphere in the highest level of college basketball. It gives us an idea of what we still have to work on individually. I am extremely proud of our effort. We battled them and didn't give up. A 10 point loss is nothing to be ashamed of. If you hit a couple of more shots you scare them a little bit. They were scared of us. They were ready."
SJU came out to an early 11-2 lead. SFBK was able to cut that lead to 13-10. After four straight SJU points, SFBK went on a 12-0 run, led by two threes by Fechko, to go up 22-17. SJU would tie the game at 24. Both teams didn't pick up a lead bigger than two before the end of the half. At half time the game was tied at 31.
With the score 37-35, the Red Storm were able to outscore the Terriers 22-6. This allowed them to go up 59-41 and gain their biggest lead of the game,18.
With the score 63-46, the Terriers were able to go on a 8-0 run, led by five points by Fechko, to make it 63-54 with 2:11 left.
But the SFBK come back fell short.
The Terriers return to action on November 23rd when they host UMASS-Lowell at the Pope Physical Education Center.

Just as they have time immemorial, Sports Illustrated has published their special commemorative issue to celebrate the 2017 Alabama Crimson Tide football team for winning its fifth national championship in nine years. The cover shows current head coach Nick Saban adorning the houndstooth fedora that is intrinsically linked to the man considered by many to be Bama's greatest coach of all-time, Bear Bryant.
Emotions run deep when it comes to Tide football, so when Birmingham radio host Jim Dunaway saw the cover, he was quite offended.
This cover.
The mark.
Nick Saban is Nick Saban.

Certainly, we can discuss the merits of the Photoshop job. It's a little unclear if Dunaway is bothered by the comparison between the two coaches because they are both great in their own rights or if he feels that Saban isn't worthy of being compared to Bryant. If it's the former, that's a reasonable take given that they coached in different eras and oversaw entirely different versions of the sport.
If it's the latter, well, that's where things get a little dicey. Because the truth is that Saban has almost certainly surpassed Bryant in terms of what he's been able to accomplish as head coach of the Alabama football program.
This isn't a hot take outside of Tuscaloosa. Lots of national pundits are already well-aboard the Saban Train in this argument.
Gotta be honest, I didn't think much about the Saban-Bryant theme this year. In my mind Nick surpassed Bryant awhile ago. https://t.co/r5QVO590th
— Dan Wolken (@DanWolken) January 11, 2018
Same. https://t.co/rSP4RfrQd4
— Chris Vannini (@ChrisVannini) January 11, 2018
While it's natural that loyal Bama fans will take it as some kind of slight against the coach they've admired and idolized for decades, there's simply not much denying that Saban is now No. 1 on that arbitrary list of all-time coaches.
There's no denying that what Bryant accomplished between 1958 and 1982 was legendary. Six national titles and 14 SEC titles is an amazing haul in any era. And when you look at Alabama's record between 1971 and 1980, it's astounding. The Tide won double-digit games in all but two of those seasons and ended the year outside the Top Ten only once (at No. 11). His 232–46–9 record with the school is the reason we've named a stadium, trophy, and many other things after him.
But even the most strident Bear devotee has to admit that this was a different era, and, arguably, an easier one in which to create a dominant program. College football was big but it wasn't what it is now. It certainly wasn't the cutthroat billion-dollar business that it's become. The recruiting demands, the national exposure, the media spotlight, the huge contracts, the shifting demographics, conference championship games, and the whims of modern life all make it nearly impossible to create a dynasty that lasts even five years, let alone 25.
And yet, we say "nearly impossible" because Nick Saban has figured out how to surpass that unreachable plateau and double it. After taking over a Tide program in decline in 2007, he almost immediately turned them back into the powerhouse that Alabama is expected to be.
By 2008, Alabama was winning 12 games in a season. By 2009, he had his first national title with the program. He would return to the national title game five more times in the next eight years, creating a run that is unrivaled in modern college football (1980 forward). By defeating Georgia in the College Football Playoff title game, he notched his fifth title with Alabama and sixth overall (LSU, 2003), tying him with Bryant.
Nick Saban: wins 6th national title, tying Bear Bryant for the most by a head coach in Poll Era (since 1936) pic.twitter.com/2tnTZj2YbM
— ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) January 9, 2018
Oh, and Saban isn't done. Not by a longshot. Alabama is already the odds-on favorite to repeat again next season. Nothing is ever guaranteed but you can assume that so long as Saban is at the helm, Alabama will be in the title picture. That only gets more impressive when you look around at Saban's and Alabama's contemporaries that have come and gone throughout this dynastic run.
Oregon fell off the map, Notre Dame is often overrated, Ohio State is always in the picture but rarely matches up, Auburn has good years and bad years, and Georgia needs to prove they're going to stick around. Clemson, the program that beat Alabama for last year's title and is likely to challenge the crown again next season, has still lost to the Tide in two of the last three College Football Playoff match-ups.
As our Kevin McGuire recently said, "good luck, college football world, because Alabama is not about to fade away anytime soon." And with each passing season, conference title, and national title, his legendary status is only going to grow.
Ultimately, it's not that what Bryant accomplished is lessened by Saban. It's simply that Saban's body of work is as impressive, if not more so than Bryant's, because of the era in which he's accomplishing it. It was a different game back then but in many ways, it was a simpler game, too. College football is a business now. And there has never been a CEO quite like Nick Saban. The man can wear anybody's hat anytime he wants. He's earned it.

Maree brings curtain down on junior career with fifth Down Under
- Updated: January 10, 2017
South African Jordy Maree ended his glittering junior surfing career with a fine fifth place finish in the World Junior Championship (WJC) which concluded in tricky 0.6/1-metre waves at Bombo Beach in Kiama in Australia on Monday.
Australian duo Ethan Ewing and Macy Callaghan claimed the boys' and girls' titles at the annual event which features the world's top 36 male and 18 female competitive surfers aged 18-and-under.
Maree opened his campaign on the final day by placing second behind Brazil's Mateus Herdy as the pair progressed to the quarter-finals by eliminating Marco Mignot of France in a high-scoring Round 4 encounter. But there the Capetonian could not match top seeded Ewing's march to the title and he was ousted into equal fifth place overall, but still pocketing US $3000 (approx. R41 000).
WSL Africa junior champion Adin Masencamp (Strand) was the next best of the seven South Africans in the event, finishing equal 13th after losing out in Round 3. Jake Elkington (Kommetjie) and Bevan Willis (uMdloti), who received a wildcard into the event, were both eliminated in Round 2 while Sebastian Williams (Durban) could not get to the event due to visa problems.
Sophie Bell (Salt Rock) and Kirsty McGillivray (Jeffreys Bay), the top two girls on the WSL Africa junior rankings, were also both sidelined in Round 2 of the girls' event, finishing equal 13th overall.
The boys' final was a showdown between the top two seeds and great friends, Ewing and Griffin Colapinto (USA), who were the standout performers throughout the event. The finale was affected by a front that blew through in the opening minutes and after Ewing found two scoring waves early, Colapinto was unable to find any waves of substance.
Ewing now joins an illustrious list of World Junior Champions including Joel Parkinson, Andy Irons, Jordy Smith and Gabriel Medina, just to name a few.
'This feels so amazing,' Ewing said. 'Coming into this event as the top seed gave me confidence from the get go and it all just kept running smoothly from the start of the week. It all just went to plan. It was funny because Griffin (Colapinto) and I talked about the chances of the two of us meeting in the final early in the week, so the fact it happened was really cool. Griffin is a great friend of mine so it is special to share this with him.'
When a little known Ewing took out the Burleigh Pro QS1,000 at the beginning of 2016, he grabbed the attention of the surfing world. He then went on to win the WSL Australasia Junior Qualifying Series (JQS) and finish runner up on the Qualifying Series (QS) booking himself a spot on the 2017 elite Championship Tour (CT), something the young Stradbroke Island native had never set out to do in such quick succession.
