During the Easter break, students from Hampton School visited a small town in Spain called Ronda to help develop their Spanish language skills and learn about the culture. During this period, they were able to help out in the local schools, mixing with the locals, encouraging the use of different languages, both English and Spanish. This included evening lessons with adults, to aid them in their English speaking, talking about subjects such as the differences in food and the culture.
I believe that visits to foreign countries is crucial to gain a love for a language as well as being able to test whether your skills acquired in school are transferable. I would suggest if this was compulsory, it would encourage a new feeling of purpose in language lessons back in the home country, because you can visualise its real-life application. It also allows people to have the opportunity to engage with different backgrounds and you are forced to make new friends, wile breaking down the language barrier. Depending on the country, it can also help people to spend less time on their electronics and enjoy taking in a new atmosphere and scenery, immersing themselves in a new environment. In addition, foreign trips are crucial, because they offer a break from everyday life and routine, which then results in more focused periods of work afterwards. The mix of students makes people take the focus of themselves and try to find similarities in interests, in order to find a topic of conversation, and therefore forming new bonds. Furthermore, with the introduction of social media, it is a possibility that you can remain in conversation, and if you are lucky, provide you with the chance to visit again in later life.
It also gives publicity to the area you visit, for example Hampton's visit to the small Ronda town, allows for businesses to thrive and then the message of the town is passed back to the respective families. This is a positive situation for all, the students improve their language and make new memories, while offering money to the local area, and giving a break from normality for both parties.

Country Choice takes on rival in NI
18 April, 2008
Page 10
UK bake-off and food-to-go giant Country Choice is planning to take on rival Cuisine de France (CDF) on its own turf, by entering the Northern Irish market, which the latter dominates.
A team of 12 key Country Choice staff will be blitzing the market over a two-week period from Monday, visiting as many retailers as they can and offering a series of deals, sampling, free stock, and awareness days in a bid to open accounts.Richard Acey, sales director of Country Choice, part of UK foodservice supplier Brakes, said there is a three-year business plan to gain a "significant market share", before probably moving south into Ireland and then on to France.He said: "Our market share in the UK has finally got to the point where all that's really happening on a day-to-day basis is we're poaching from CDF and they're poaching from us."We need new geography. We believe the retailers in Northern Ireland are desperate for some choice, and that we're best-placed to create that choice. "The foodservice market there is much more advanced anyway, so there is a strategic benefit to get a better understanding of where the UK is headed."Country Choice's business development manager Alan Curley will oversee the NI operation, and McCain Foodservice will act as distributor of Country Choice's food-to-go offer.

All The Deans That I Have Experienced
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
For all of the years I have been in Hale Charter Academy, from 2016 to now which is like 2 years give or take, there have been a couple of deans and dean changes that I have experienced.
First, the school year 2016 to 2017, the dean that was in charge was Mr. Capretta. He was a pretty nice dean and didn't yell too much. He still yelled but only when some juvenile was not acting right or doing shenanigans on important events or dean talks. Unlike some of the deans that are going to mentioned later on, he didn't make too many announcements about the bad behavior on kids that were in our grade, but I'm not sure about the rest. When he's out patrolling the children during lunch, he would always have a smile on his face while he was lecturing these immature humans. While he was lecturing the children with happy face, he also intimidated them. Most of the kids who were lectured by him never did anything bad for awhile and sometimes turning into good kids. I forgot which teacher or student told this to me, or it could have been himself, but due to the way he was lecturing the bad kids, he was nicknamed the Happy Grim Reaper or something along those lines.
The next dean that was in charge after Mr. Capretta in the 2017 to 2018 school year was Dr. J. From the conversations I heard from kids around the lunch area, most of the kids say she was stricter than the previous dean, Mr. Capretta. During important events like dean talks and emergency drills, when two or more kids stepped out of line like roughhousing and lollygagging, she would go out of her way to pinpoint the kids who roughhoused and give them a lecture right in front of other children. On some occasions like talking too loud when entering the MPR on dean talks, she would give everyone a one or two minute lecture about why we need to be quiet. When she catches you running in the hallway, she will yell very loudly at you to "Slow down" or "Stop running". Where ever she is, it always seems like she has a radar on, catching kids no matter where they are.
During the last 2 or 3 months of the 2017 to 2018 school year, a new dean, Mr Hayes, appeared and was given power to become a dean. Since he was the dean for the end of the year, there was nothing I noticed that stood out to me. He didn't do any dean talks and emergency drills since it was almost the end of the year, so I didn't see that much out patrolling the children. He was sometimes seen looking over the children at the end of the day making sure no one gets run over by a car on the streets. That's about all I know about the dean who appeared out of nowhere and became the dean for like 2 months or so.
The new dean this year, 2018 to 2019 school year, is Ms. Sanders. Since the school year just started, not much can be said about her. There has been one dean talk that happened this year. In the dean talk, there were kids who were doing immature acts in the back of the MPR, so she stopped the talk and told them to sit in the very back and get monitored by the PE teachers.
Those are all the deans that I have experienced in the 2 to 3 years in Hale Charter Academy.

Larry Ray Burns was born in Reydon, Oklahoma on March 12, 1938, to Charles Lee and Viola Mae Burns.
He passed away at home in Cheyenne, Oklahoma on June 15, 2017 at the age of 79 years.

In his younger years, Larry was a talented musician who was especially outstanding on the clarinet and saxophone.
While in high school at Cheyenne in the 50's he and some other Roger Mills County friends formed a popular band called "The Keys". As a senior at Classen High School in Oklahoma City, he was active in many school musicals which earned him a music scholarship to Oklahoma City University.
Larry worked professionally for several years as a musician which eventually prompted a move to California. While living in Stockton, California, he attended college there working toward a degree in business.
He was employed by Sears for many years until his retirement. In 2000, at his dad's request, Larry moved back to Cheyenne to live with him following his mother's passing.
His favorite pastime before he became ill was fishing and playing golf.
Larry is survived by five children: Rick of Cheyenne, Oklahoma; Kerry and Lorri of Albuquerque, New Mexico; Holli and husband Tom of Seattle, Washington and Bryan and wife Tara of Harold, California. He has seven grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren. He is also survived by one sister, Jeannean and husband Gil of Edmond, Oklahoma and many other relatives and friends.

Peanut Butter Truffles
You can substitute any similar ingredient for the peanut butter- similar in viscosity and texture
Gretchen's Bakery
Heavy Cream ½ cup (120ml)
Couverture Chocolate
8oz (224g)
Creamy Peanut Butter 4 Tablespoons (80g)
Miniature Chocolate Chips ½ cup (113g)
Dry Roasted *Salted peanuts ½ cup (113g)
*optional salted or not salted
Boil the heavy cream and pour over the finely chopped chocolate to melt.
Whisk smooth
Add the peanut butter and whisk smooth
Set aside until it is firm enough to scoop
Scoop into 1" balls and then roll in chopped peanuts and mini chocolate chips
Truffles are meant to be eaten at room temperature.
As long as you are working with gloved hands there is not risk of bacteria getting trapped inside the truffle, so you can store truffles for up to 4 days at room temperature in a cool dry place.
Freezing of dipped truffles is not the greatest since chocolate does not like condensation and freezing almost always produces condensation on the thaw.

BOSTON — Again on Nov. 1, the Celtics hit a franchise-record 24 Three-pointers and defeated the Bucks in Boston, handing Milwaukee its first loss off the season after seven straight wins.
"We nonetheless suppose we're among the best groups," Giannis Antetokounmpo stated after his triple double wasn't sufficient to beat the Celtics. "Tonight we did not have an 'A' or 'B' sport. Most likely a 'C' sport, however we have been nonetheless near profitable the sport in Boston."
And now, virtually two months later, the Bucks, who have been eradicated by Boston in seven video games in final yr's playoffs, are 21-9 and forward of Boston within the Japanese Convention standings as they hit TD Backyard for the second time this season Friday night time.
Milwaukee topped the New Orleans Pelicans 123-115 at residence Wednesday night time for his or her third straight win — whereas the Celtics, nonetheless getting hammered by damage, dropped their second straight after an eight-game profitable streak — falling to the Phoenix Suns 111-103.
The Milwaukee victory got here in a matchup of two of the NBA's greatest — Antetokounmpo and Anthony Davis.
"In fact, I take it as a problem," Antetokounmpo stated after scoring 25 factors and posting eight rebounds and eight assists. "Anthony Davis is a good man and clearly he is among the best gamers within the league proper now. At any time when you've gotten the chance to play towards these guys, you realize, you attempt to go as exhausting as you possibly can and set up your self on this league additionally."
Second-year participant T.J. Wilson got here off the bench to attain 9 factors and seize 10 rebounds and the Bucks' bench performed a significant function within the newest win.
"It is an enormous assertion. You want that all through the season," coach Mike Budenholzer stated. "You want your bench. It is a actually vital half."
Stated Antetokounmpo, who's averaging 33.7 factors per sport through the profitable streak: "D.J. has performed an amazing job of simply enjoying the sport and ready for his probability. He is studying proper now."
Boston, already lacking Al Horford and Marcus Morris each resting sore knees, misplaced Aron Baynes to a damaged left hand early within the sport — Baynes slated to overlook a month with the damage.
Kyrie Irving, set to face Antetokounmpo in one other matchup of stars, scored 28 factors the primary time the groups performed (the Greek Freak had 33 factors,15 rebounds,11 assists) and led the Celtics with 29 factors, 10 assists and 5 rebounds Wednesday.
The 18-12 Celtics, who rallied from 22 factors down and defeated the Suns in extra time in Phoenix earlier this season, jumped out to a fast 11-point lead earlier than the Suns arrived and switch the sport round.
"I feel it began after the primary quarter," Irving stated. "They only picked up their aggressiveness they usually have been just about in rhythm for the remainder of the night time."
Irving added: "Effectively, we simply need to have consistency amongst all our items, whoever is in. Only a cohesion the place the ball is shifting, and guys really see different gamers be within the place to attain the basketball, so which means delivering on time, really caring about … really making an attempt. Sure possessions, we're really the place down the stretch, it is like for some video games that we have performed, once we strive, we're within the sport on a regular basis. And once we do not, we're clearly not.
"We [can't] look to the refs or something like that. For us as a rising group and studying from each other, we've to proceed to construct that cohesion."
Requested about Horford, who has missed the final six video games and is training, Boston coach Brad Stevens stated, "Feeling higher, getting higher. Reassess just about day-after-day."
The Celtics are Four-2 since Horford went down.
Boston comes into the sport, the second of a four-game homestand, 9-Four at residence, whereas the Bucks, beginning a three-game journey, are 7-6 on the street.

Eating greens daily provides our bodies with essential vitamins and minerals! Like us on facebook and post some of your favorite green's recipes!
Kale, Quinoa, Black Bean Salad
1 cup quinoa, rinsed very well (I used a combo of red and white quinoa)
2 cups vegetable broth
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
3 tablespoons vegetable broth
1 teaspoon chia seeds or ground flaxseed
1 teaspoon pure chile powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon chipotle chile powder, or to taste
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste (optional)
4 – 6 cups chopped kale leaves (about 4-5 ounces)
1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup grated carrot
1 avocado, sliced or cubed (optional)
additional lemon juice and seasonings, to taste
Rinse quinoa in a fine mesh strainer under warm running water. Place the rinsed quinoa in a medium pot with the water and a pinch of sea salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer, for about 20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed.
While the quinoa is cooking, make the dressing in a small bowl or measuring cup: whisk together the lemon juice, 3 tablespoons broth, chia/flax seeds, Chile powders, cumin, and salt. Allow to stand until the chia seeds start to thicken the dressing.
Place the kale in a large serving bowl. Add half of the dressing and massage it into the kale using a wringing motion until the kale is very tender. Two minutes of massaging should do it, but the longer, the better. Add the quinoa, black beans, carrot, and bell pepper, along with the remaining dressing. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Just before serving, check the seasoning and add more lemon juice, chile powder, cumin, and salt, as needed. Stir in chopped avocado, if desired, or serve with slices of avocado on the side.
Braised Kale or Chard with Garlic and Ginger
1 tablespoon coconut oil
4 to 6 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon grated ginger
2-3 bunches of kale, rinsed and chopped
1/4 -1/2 cup of water
Optional Seasonings:
Brown Rice Vinegar
Ume Plum Vinegar
Freshly squeezed lemon juice (my favorite)
Wheat free tamari (my favorite)
Sea Salt
Toasted Sesame Seeds
Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger and saute about 15-30 seconds. Quickly add the chopped greens and water and continue to stir.
After about 4 to 6 minutes, or when greens are tender, remove from heat. Sprinkle with your favorite seasonings, to taste. Our favorite combinations are sea salt, lemon juice and tamari. Toss Gently and serve.

|Apparatus for performing ophthalmic laser surgery
|L'Esperance, Jr.
The invention relates to procedures and apparatus for ophthalmic surgery upon the cornea to correct one or more optical deficiencies of an eye. More particularly, the invention is concerned with controlled use of tissue-ablating laser-beam irradiation of stromal tissue within the optically used central area of the cornea, to effect improved optical performance at the anterior surface of the cornea. And the invention is specifically concerned with the class of surgical procedures which includes keratomileusis and thus a temporary partial or total surgical removal of the lenticle from the cornea.
Origin of keratomileusis and related procedures is attributed to Dr. Jose I. Barraquer, of Bogota, Colombia. His procedures and apparatus are described and illustrated by Dr. Louis J. Girard, in his 1981 authoritative text, "Corneal Surgery", Volume Two, Chapter 6 ("Refractive Keratoplasty"), pp. 143 to 172; Dr. Girard's Chapter 6 concludes with a full bibliography which accounts for the contributions of Dr. Barraquer and others in the art.
It suffices for present purposes to briefly describe Dr. Barraquer's keratomileusis procedure, which is visually employed for surgically correcting a severely myopic eye, although it can also be used to correct for a hyperopia condition. At the outset, a special microtome (a "microkeratome") is applied to the cornea and operates to shear off, as a lenticle, namely, a central front truncation of predetermined size, from the central region of the cornea, the diameter of the truncation being in the order of 7.5 mm and thus fully embracing the optically used region of the cornea. Having selected a holding disc for its concavity adapted to the front-surface curvature of the lenticle, the lenticle is fitted to the concavity, and is then frozen, with the freshly cut posterior surface of the lenticle exposed for precision lathing to predetermined contour. After lathing and thawing, the lenticle is reapplied to the eye, and is then sutured in stroma-to-stroma contact with the cornea from which it was removed.
A keratomileusis procedure thus contemplates full preservation of the anterior surface of the cornea, and a lathe-sculpturing removal of stromal tissue only from the posterior surface of the severed lenticle. If the lathing is to a characterized predetermined depth of cut which is greatest at the optical axis and which reduces to zero at the outer radius of the optically used part of the cornea, then upon applying the lathed lenticle to the eye, a myopia-correcting result is obtained. If, on the other hand, the lathing depth of cut is greatest at the outer radius of the optically used part of the cornea, with reducing depth of cut as a function of reducing radius, then a hyperopia-correcting result is obtained.
We know of no reported efforts to apply laser surgery in any updated performance of a keratomileusis operation. However, Trokel, et al. in their paper entitled "Excimer Laser Surgery of the Cornea", Am. J. Ophthal. 96: 710-715, December 1983, do suggest the possibility of such an operation.
Meanwhile, various L'Esperance, Jr. patents have issued, describing use of tissue-ablating laser radiation, directed to the optically used central region of the anterior surface of the cornea, to effect optical correction by tissue-ablating action, with volumetric removal of corneal tissue. These patents illustratively include those numbered 4,665,913, 4,669,466, 4,732,148, 4,729,372, and 4,770,172, and their disclosures, as well as Dr. Girard's said Chapter 6, are hereby incorporated by reference.
It is an object of the invention to provide a new and improved technique and apparatus for performing a keratomileusis or the like operation.
Another specific object is to provide a new and improved technique and apparatus for surgically modifying optical properties of an eye without surgically invading the central optically used region of the anterior surface of the cornea.
A specific object is to achieve the above objects through laser-ablating removal of only stromal tissue from the optically used central region of the cornea.
Another specific object is to provide a technique and apparatus for performing a keratomileusis operation without surgically invading any optically used part of the lenticle that is severed at commencement of the operation.
The invention achieves the foregoing objects by modifying conventional keratomileusis procedure to the extent that controlled tissue-ablating laser radiation is applied solely to the freshly cut part of the cornea that is left after severing the lenticle, the radiation being so controlled and characterized as to effect a volumetric removal of exclusively stromal tissue that, upon replacement of the lenticle over the thus-sculptured remainder of the cornea, a new and optically corrected curvature results.
The invention will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a simplified sectional view of a cornea, with annular eye-retaining and microtome structure in locating relation with the limbus of the cornea;
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a laser and control means for operating upon the retained cornea of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a cornea, to enlarged scale, in aid of discuss±on of curvature-decreasing optical corrections achievable in use of the invention;
FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3, applicable to curvature-increasing optical corrections;
FIG. 5 is a sectional view of a cornea, to illustrate a modified technique of the invention;
FIG. 6 is a sectional view of apparatus usable in performing the technique of FIG. 5, shown applied to the cornea of FIG. 5; and
FIG. 7 is a simplified sectional diagram, to illustrate an articulated employment of apparatus of FIG. 6, in performing the technique of FIG. 5.
In FIG. 1, annular eye-retaining ring structure 10 is shown in locating engagement with a cornea 11 having a dilated iris 12, and said structure includes a flange 13 which establishes a horizontal plane of reference for the cutting blade 14 of a microtome. The central bulbous contour of the anterior surface of the cornea projects beyond this horizontal plane, and a dashed line 15 indicates the line of cornea-truncating cut by the microtome blade when guided by flange 13 in the direction of arrow 16, transverse to the optical axis of the eye. This truncating cut is at such maximum depth (on the axis of the eye) that a lenticle 17 (FIG. 2) is severed from the cornea, and the diameter D1 of the lenticle (and thus also the freshly cut portion of the remaining body of the cornea) substantially exceeds the diameter D2 of the optically used central area of the cornea. Preferably, the depth of this truncating cut is such that the cut area of diameter D2 is entirely within stroma tissue of the cornea, i.e., it is beneath any involvement with Bowman's membrane in the area defined by diameter D2. And a lateral stabilizing-arm part 18 of structure 10 is adapted for detachably fixed connection to laser apparatus 20 (FIG. 2).
The ring structure 10 and microtome blade 14 will be understood to have been simplified because precision equipment, designed by Dr. Barraquer for presently described purposes, exists and is commercially available, for example, as the Microkeratome Set marketed by Steinway Instrument Company, Inc., of San Diego, Calif. The Steinway Microkeratome Set is complete, with an assortment of eye-retaining rings 10 of various sizes, and with an assortment of plates (flange 13) for determining various depths of cut, as well as accessories to facilitate use for production of lenticle 17. The Steinway promotional bulletin, "Series I--The Barraquer Cryo-Lathe and Microkeratome Set", as well as Dr. Girard's said Chapter 6 provide detail as to the nature and use of the involved cutting apparatus, so that such detail is not needed in the present description.
Having made the cut which produced lenticle 17, it is preferred to retain a memory of the angular orientation of the lenticle with respect to the remaining body of the cornea. To this end, FIG. 2 shows lenticle 17 lying on the flat upper surface of blade 14, the same having been brought to this position by tweezer grasp of the leading edge of the lenticle as the lenticle is being cut, and by drawing this edge over the blade surface while making the cut, thus non-invasively setting aside and retaining the lenticle in known orientation with respect to the remaining body of the cornea from which it has been severed, so that the lenticle can later be placed in its correct original orientation with respect to said body. A drop of isotonic solution applied to the upper surface of blade 14, prior to making the cut, will facilitate this tweezer manipulation and also provides a degree of protection for the cut posterior surface of the lenticle.
The patient, who is preferably lying on his back, as related in said L'Esperance, Jr. patents, is now ready for correctly aligned positioning with respect to the laser apparatus 20, the same being secured via means 21 detachably connecting arm 18 to a bracket 22 or other fixture of the laser apparatus.
The apparatus 20 is schematically shown to include a laser source 24 producing an output beam 25 of radiation at a tissue-ablating intensity and wavelength, such as the pulsed 193 nm wavelength ultraviolet beam produced by an excimer laser operating with argon fluoride (ArF), all as described in commercial literature of Lambda-Physik, of Gottingen, West Germany and available in the United States from the Lambda-Physik facility in Acton, Mass.; refererence to and performance of a particular Lambda-Physik excimer laser is found in various L'Esperance, Jr. patents, including Pat. No. 4,665,913, and therefore no elaboration thereof is needed for purposes of the present description.
The apparatus 20 is further shown to include beam-homogenizing means 26, followed by beam-characterizing means 27, before folding at a mirror 28 for vertically downward delivery on axis 25' to the center of the stromal tissue exposed upon lenticle 17 removal. A dimensional indication at diameter D3 illustrates the maximum cross section diameter of the beam at impact with cornea 11. For purposes of achieving a desired optical correction, this maximum diameter D3 of laser-beam exposure to the cornea may be less than the maximum diameter D2 accommodated by a dilated iris 12, as will later become clear.
Reference is made to pending Telfair, et al. application Ser. No. 009,724, filed Feb. 2, 1987, for detailed description of suitable beam-homogenizing means 26, and for present purposes it is sufficient to indicate that the action of means 26 is such as to provide an output of laser-beam delivery to the succeeding means 27 wherein the laser beam is of substantially uniform flux density over the sectional area of the thus-delivered beam. Reference is made to L'Esperance, Jr. Pat. No. 4,732,148, and to pending Yoder patent application Ser. No. 204,504, filed June 9, 1988 for descriptions of suitable beam-characterizing means 27; and it is sufficient to note for present purposes that beam delivery afforded by the disclosure of these latter references is of the variety wherein the size and shape of the laser-beam section is varied by suitable control means 29 in the course of a given laser-surgery exposure. Depending upon the shape which is thus dimensionally varied, the ablation of corneal tissue results in sculpture to a desired new profile of the exposed surface area, the
diameter D3 of which is illustratively 4 to 6 mm for myopia, hyperopia and/or astigmatism correction. We sometimes refer to the technique indicated for beam-characterizing by means 27 as the varying spot-size technique.
FIG. 3 illustrates the important step of the invention, using the apparatus of FIG. 2 to perform a myopia-reducing laser-ablating sculpture of the central area (diameter D3) within the freshly cut region 11' of the cornea, after microtome removal of lenticle 17. Within this central area, laser spot size is controlled by means 27, 29 to be a circle centered on the optical axis (beam axis 25'), and the diameter of the circle is caused to vary in the course of a predetermined ablation-producing exposure. Thus, if the diameter is near-zero at commencement of the exposure, and if the diameter expands in the course of the exposure, to the point of achieving diameter D3 at the end of the exposure, the resulting curvature of depth penetration into the freshly cut region 11' is a concavity having a profile 30 of circular symmetry about axis 25'. And when lenticle 17 is thereafter returned into concentric registry and stroma-to-stroma contact with surface 11' (and its newly sculpted concavity 30), the net effect is a curvature reduction and thus a myopia-reducing change in the anterior-surface curvature of the cornea, it being noted that lenticle 17 is sufficiently pliant to retain its new curvature, as dictated by the stroma-to-stroma contact.
What has been said as to the spherical myopia-reducing change effected by the sculpture step of FIG. 3 can also be said for an astigmatism-reducing change, also illustrated by FIG. 3, if the sculpted curvature profile 30 is viewed as being the section of a cylindrical arc, which section extends diametrically across the area of diameter D3. To produce such cylindrically arcuate sculpture, i.e., from surface 11' to the diametrically extending constant cylindrically arcuate contour 30, the controlled varying spot size of tissue-ablating radiation delivered on axis 25' is a diametrically extending line or stripe of varying width, which at beginning of the exposure may be most narrow, but which expands in width, and with lateral symmetry both sides of said diametrically extending line, in the course of the predetermined full exposure. If the angular orientation of the said diametrically extending line is set in accordance with the cylindrical axis of astigmatism to be corrected, then upon returning lenticle 17 into concentric registry and stroma-to-stroma contact with surface 11' (and its newly sculpted concavity 30), the net effect is a cylindrical curvature reduction in the anterior surface of the cornea, which curvature reduction is correctly oriented for astigmatism correction of the involved eye.
In a manner analogous to the spherical and/or cylindrical curvature reduction procedures described in connection with FIG. 3, FIG. 4 illustrates the case for curvature increase, to effect correction of a hyperopia condition. In FIG. 4, the laser-sculpted intrusion into the freshly cut surface 11' establishes a convex profile 31 of circular symmetry about axis 25', over the area (of diameter D3) afforded by the maximum beam diameter used in the cases of FIG. 3, it being recalled that said maximum beam diameter had been selected to accord with the optically used area of the cornea to be surgically improved, i.e., not necessarily the maximum diameter D2 afforded by a fully dilated iris 12. But to limit the hyperopia-correcting convex profile 31 to the diameter D3 desired for optical correction is to present the disadvantage of not achieving hyperopia correction to the full desired extent of diameter D3. This is because the convex profile 31 alone would mean a sharp outer circular edge of maximum depth penetration into the cut surface 11', and application of lenticle 17 to such a profile could degrade optical performance of the resulting anterior-surface profile, due to the difficulty of assuring full stroma-to-stroma seating of the lenticle on the sculpted surface 11', particularly at and near the outer circular locus of greatest ablated-depth penetration into surface 11'. To offset this difficulty, the profile 31 is flared or beveled, from maximum-depth penetration to zero penetration, in an annular zone 31' (of outer diameter D4) contiguous to and radially outside the optically correcting convex profile 31. As explained in detail in L'Esperance, Jr. Pat. No. 4,732,148, the laser-sculpting production to the combined optically correcting and flaring profiles (31, 31') is obtained by such varying beam-section control by means 27, 29 as to project an annulus of laser beam impingement wherein the annulus is at all times during the exposure based on the circular locus of diameter D3, and wherein the inner radius of the projected annulus varies progressively in the radially inward direction to the point of zero or near-zero exposure on axis 25', while at the same time the outer radius of the projected annulus varies progressively in the radially outward direction to the point of zero or near-zero exposure at diameter D4. Having performed the profiling operation (31, 31') on the freshly cut surface 11', lenticle 17 is concentrically applied thereto with stroma-to-stroma contact over all cut and sculptured surfaces, whereby the anterior surface of the cornea pliantly assumes the desired new circumferentially beveled hyperopia-correcting curvature.
FIGS. 5, 6 and 7 are directed to a modification of technique and apparatus, whereby accuracy of registration and orientation can be assured upon lenticle replacement over the laser-ablated stroma at the freshly cut surface 11'. This is made possible by so making the microtome cut, on alignment 15' (FIG. 5), as to terminate a distance d short of totally severing the lenticle 17' from the rest of the cornea. The lenticle 17' is then treated as a hinged flap which can be engaged and articulated about a fixed axis 35 by the hinged holding device 36 shown in FIG. 6.
The holding device 36 comprises an inverted cup-shaped enclosure having a flange 37 for supporting engagement with the upper rim edge of the eye-retaining device 10. The otherwise-open bottom wall of the enclosure is closed by a perforated or foraminous wall 38 selected for contour compatability with the pre-surgery profile of the anterior surface of the patient's cornea. A valve 39 is selectively operable into three positions, in the first of which the interior volume or plenum of enclosure 36 is connected to a vacuum line, in the second of which the interior volume of enclosure 36 is connected to a source of air pressure, and in the third of which the vacuum and pressure-source connections are both cut off. The hinge designation 35 in FIG. 6 will be understood to suggest selectively removable hinging attachment of the holding device 36 to hinge-connection means 35' forming a part of the eye-retaining structure 10 of FIG. 2.
In use of the procedure and apparatus of FIGS. 5 to 7, a microtome cut is made on alignment 15', leaving a pliant hinge connection (of extent d) between the lenticle flap 17' and the remaining body of the cornea. The holding device 36 is then hinge-connected at 35-35' to the eye retainer 10, and the device 36 is lowered with the porous wall 38 in conforming relation to the anterior surface of the lenticle flap 17'. Valve 39 is then actuated to provide a vacuum connection to the inner plenum volume of device 36, whereupon the lenticle flap adheres to wall 38, and device 36 is elevated to its up position, shown by phantom outline in FIG. 7; in the raised position of FIG. 7, an arrow 36' is suggestive of position-certifying contact with the plenum structure 36, and means 29, whereby tissue-ablating laser radiation cannot be delivered unless the raised position of FIG. 7 has been certified to the control means. The cut surface 11' to be laser sculpted is then clearly exposed, centered on axis 25', for such corrective ablating surgery as has been illustratively described in connection with FIGS. 3 and 4. Upon completion of the surgical procedure, device 36 (and the lenticle flap it has been holding) is returned to its down position (FIG. 6) with the lenticle flap in precise register with its original relationship to the rest of the cornea, and further actuation of valve 39 from its vacuum connection to its air-pressure connection is operative not only to release the lenticle flap from wall 38 but also to apply gentle and well-distributed downward force loading of the lenticle flap in stroma-to-stroma contact with the now-sculptured surface 11'; in the process, the anterior surface of the lenticle flap becomes once more the anterior surface of the cornea, but with a newly corrected optically functioning curvature achieved by pliant adaptation to the sculptured profile.
It will be seen that the described procedures and apparatus achieve all stated objects, and it will be appreciated that the invention is not limited to particular wavelengths as long as the involved laser radiation is tissue-ablating, i.e., has the inherent ability to photo-chemically (in the ultraviolet), photo-thermally (in the infrared) or otherwise destroy tissue without leaving scar tissue in or adjacent to the region of laser-radiation exposure.
It is also to be understood that the invention is not limited to the myopia-correcting, hyperopia-correcting and astigmatism-correcting usages described in connection with FIGS. 3 and 4. For example, the near-vision capability of a hyperopic eye may be improved by making a curvature-increasing profile that is limited essentially to a relatively small central area (e.g., as suggested by dimension D5 in FIG. 4), and by uniformly ablating the remaining annulus (D5 -D3) of the visually used area of the cornea. More specifically, the curvature-increasing profile within dimension D5 will involve greatest ablation-depth penetration (dmax.) at diameter D5, and by uniformly ablating the remaining annulus (D5 -D3) to said maximum depth (dmax.) one leaves the far-vision capability substantially untouched in the annulus (D5 -D3). However, at the outer limit D3 of this annulus, a sharp outer-wall contour may be produced, with degrading effect at diameter D3 after the lenticle has been replaced; it is therefore again recommended, as in FIG. 4, that a bevel 31' be developed up to diameter D4, in the outer annulus (D4 -D3) which is not relied upon for optical use.
Also, by way of example, the near-vision capability and far-vision capability of a particular eye can be enhanced by effecting a first (and far-vision enhancing) curvature profile in the outer annulus (D3 -D5) of the optically used area of the cornea and a second (and near-vision enhancing) curvature profile in the central circular area defined by the diameter D5, with the respective curvature profiles being of circular symmetry about the optical axis and also smoothly continuous at their circle (D3) of contiguous adjacency.
And a myopic eye may be given improved far-vision capability without destruction of its natural near-vision capability, provided the myopic error coincides with appropriate near-vision distance, by limiting the area of myopic correction to the area (D3 -D5) outside the central optically used area D5 of the cornea. This result is achieved by laser ablation of the outer surface 11' within the area (D5 -D3) to a concave profile annulus similar in all other respects to profile 31 described in connection with FIG. 4, i.e., with tissue ablating exposure only within the annulus area (D5 -D3) which would correct the myopic refractive error for distance. Various degrees of tissue-ablating exposure to the small central area (diameter D5) would be necesssary only if the inherent myopic refractive error were greater or less than the appropriate distance for reading or other near-vision capability required by the patient's work. Again preferably, a bevel sculpture 31' up to diameter D4, would be made in the annular area (D3 -D4) not relied upon for optical use.

(Working Title)
The installation 'Working Title' inscribes itself within the broader research on material practices that I have developed throughout the Master of Artistic Research. In this piece, I use celluloid film to document spaces from multiple cities: Bacau (Romania); Tallinn (Estonia), and Athens (Greece). These are spaces that intrigue me because of the recent histories that have shaped them. I have also built a series of traditional instruments, to create a sound work that overlaps with these moving image, but in an unsynchronized manner. All the techniques involved in making this work are part of my process. I aim to expand my artistic practice through the embodiment of various crafts and techniques.
Crafting New Attitudes on CRAFT
'Crafting New Attitudes on CRAFT' summarizes all my master's research. I focus on a deeper understanding of the practice I have most recently developed, a material practice involving the embodiment of various crafts and techniques, and the translation of this technical knowledge into my own artistic language. A considerable part of my thesis debates the validity of craft knowledge in an era of digital technology. I identify, by analyzing my work in relation to the oeuvre of other artists, how these techniques can continue to find their way into the visual arts. My thesis is about re-inventing a sustainable craftsman-like attitude that can be adopted in one's practice.

ABUJA — Amnesty International says "education is under attack'" in northern Nigeria with as many as 70 teachers and more than 100 students killed since the beginning of 2012.
In the past, when schools were attacked in northern Nigeria, they were attacked at night, burnt to the ground while students and teachers were in their homes.
But nowadays, when insurgents attack schools, they often do it in broad daylight, slaughtering teachers and students before destroying buildings, says Amnesty International's Makmid Kamara.
"It has become more brutal because teachers are being specifically targeted and students — school children and students – are also being targeted and killed," said Kamara.
School attacks are usually blamed on Boko Haram, a militant group that is believed to be responsible for thousands of deaths since it began violent operations in 2009. The group said it wanted to establish an Islamic state in Nigeria and called itself "The People Committed to the Propagation of the Prophet's Teachings and Jihad" in Arabic.
However, they are better known by the nickname, Boko Haram, which means "Western education is a sin."
In May, the Nigerian government declared a state of emergency in much of northeastern Nigeria and sent thousands of troops to fight Boko Haram. And while the military regularly reported success in battle, attacks on schools continued and Amnesty said the government was not doing enough to stop it.
"The Nigerian government has a duty and a responsibility to prevent these attacks by taking lawful and effective measures and we think those who are responsible should be held to account," said Kamara.
Kamara said suspected Boko Haram members were also known to intimidate teachers by standing outside of classrooms heavily armed.
Last Sunday, more than 40 students were killed by gunmen in their dormitory in Yobe state, not far from a secondary school where nearly 30 students were killed in July.
Some parents said they were terrified to send their children to school. Abdullahi Bego, the spokesperson for Yobe State Governor Ibrahim Gaidam, said the military should increase security around schools, to ensure children can be educated.
"So there is a concern across the board, shared by the government and by the people of the state, but that does mean that parents are not going to allow students to go to school? Because if we do that, it means we are giving in to these criminals and terrorists who want to stop our children from getting an education," he said.
In parts of northern Nigeria, Amnesty said, as many as 80 percent of the students have stopped attending classes and more than a thousand teachers have fled the region. Students, they said, now hide their books and uniforms, while parents were warned by gunmen to only send their children to Islamic schools. VOA

Celtic were too strong for Dundee in the lunchtime Boxing Day match at Dens Park. James Forrest and Leigh Griffiths gave Celtic a 2-0 lead at half time and the champions controlled the second half to take a comfortable win with no further goals.
The Dee fielded the same line-up that started against Partick and Motherwell. Celtic made three changes; James Forrest, Callum McGregor and Leigh Griffiths came in for Scott Sinclair, Stuart Amstrong and Moussa Dembele.
After kicking off, attacking the end with their own fans in the Bob Shankly Stand, Celtic pushed forward and barely allowed the Dark Blues out of their own half until they scored after seven minutes. James Forrest had already fired Jonny Hayes' cross from the right against the post and within a minute Celtic performed a mirror image of that move on the other side. Tierney raced into the penalty area and this time FORREST stabbed the low cross past Parish.
Celtic continued to dominate and Hayes went close with a header at the far post after a good run and cross by Forrest on the left. Hayes' game didn't last much longer; he was stretchered off after he and Josh Meekings challenged for the ball on the half way line. Meekings couldn't play on either and he limped off, to be replaced by Darren O'Dea.
The nearest Dundee came to a chance in the first half was when Faissal El Bakhtaoui's cross found Mark O'Hara, who was about to shooot only for the referee to stop play so that Hayes and O'Hara could receive treatment. Apart from that Dundee struggled to play their way into the Celtic penalty area. The Dee did succeed in creating space on the right by pulling Kieran Tierney infield to cover A-Jay Leitch-Smith and Mark O'Hara. However, the Dee couldn't exploit that space to create any real danger to the Celtic goal.
Celtic were always far more dangerous on the attack. A slack backpass by Darren O'Dea was picked up by Leigh Griffiths, but Elliott Parish managed to force him wide and the ball ran out of play. There was no denying the former Dee late in the first half when Celtic broke quickly and Olivier Ntcham's pass allowed GRIFFITHS to run through and score with a rising shot past Parish.
In the seven minutes of added time at the end of the first half Celtic twice went close to adding to their lead. 18 year old Michael Johnston had replaced the injured Jonny Hayes and he showed his talent with a fast, skillful run in from the left but Parish saved with his feet. Parish then pulled off an outstanding save to keep out a Forrest shot at the end of a quick series of passes that opened up Dundee.
With a two goal lead and firm control of the game Celtic had few problems seeing out the match. Dundee tried hard but never managed to unsettle Celtic, who were able to cruise through the second half. Celtic were content to keep possession and choose their moments to attack. They always looked as if they could step up a gear if they needed to. The Dark Blues had a chance when O'Dea got his head to Jon Aurtenetxe's freek kick, but sent his effort well over the bar. Celtic were much the more dangerous side, however. Darren McGregor ran through the middle before skying his shot horribly from the edge of the penalty area. Leigh Griffiths sent a low ball across the face of the goal that missed everyone.
18 year old Jack Lambert came on for his first appearance, replacing El Balhtaoui. Dundee had a short spell of pressure midway through the second half, but Celtic's defence stood firm. Leith-Smith went down under a challenge by Dedryck Boyata, but the unsuccessful penalty appeal looked optimistic. Paul McGowan sent a 20 yard shot a foot over the bar, and Sofien Moussa failed to get his header on target when he sneaked in at the back post on the end of an Aurtenetxe free kick.
Matty Henvey, at 17, became the second teenager to make his debut for the Dee when he came on for Leitch-Smith. Without having to force things Celtic remained much the more dangerous side. James Forrest ran through some unusually diffident tackles before pulling his shot yards wide and Michael Johnston volleyed too high from a Forrest cross.
Celtic had far too much experience and skill at game management to give the Dee even a sniff at a comeback and had the points tucked away in their hip pocket long before the end. Celts' skipper Scott Brown might not be hugely popular with opposing fans, but no-one can deny his ability to run a game. As so often, he managed proceedings from the middle of the park and Dundee could not ruffle his composure. The Dark Blues were disappointing in midfield today, and gave the ball away far too often. In the face of Celtic's pressing Dundee repeatedly conceded cheap possession. Playing Celtic presents a tough challenge and it becomes almost impossible if the players are not at their best. Sadly that was the case today.

Readings include one survey text (Erikson & Tedin), which contains chapters on most of the themes for the course, and three other texts that address specific aspects of belief and opinion formation and their impact on individual behavior and systemic outcomes. Beyond this, additional readings are assigned throughout the semester and can be found on the library's electronic reserve system. Some weeks' reading assignments are more extensive than others'. Reading ahead is strongly encouraged. Lectures and class discussions will not always cover the same material as the readings, so both reading and regular class attendance are necessary to do well in the course. Because many of the learning opportunities will come through class discussions, students must be prepared to discuss assigned readings in class. Completing the each week's readings prior to class meetings is very important.

The American Bar Association House of Delegates voted in favor of a resolution that urges the federal government to recognize that transgender persons should not be discriminated against in applying for United States Armed Forces based on gender identity.
Co-sponsored by the Commission on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity, Resolution 118 was approved by delegates at the ABA annual meeting on Tuesday. The resolution stated "service by individuals who otherwise meet the standards for accession or retention in the US Armed Forces should not be denied."
Arguments and lawsuits in support of transgender rights escalated in 2017 when President Donald Trump announced via Twitter that the federal government would not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in the military in any capacity.
In response to heightened concerns, the proposed resolution was accompanied by a report that included three research-backed points, according to the ABA Journal:
• Transgender individuals openly serving in the Armed Forces will have an insignificant impact on military readiness
• Costs associated with providing health care for transgender individuals is negligible
• The transgender service ban violates the constitutional guarantees of the Equal Protection Clause and Due Process

|This article originally ran in the
Dallas Observer's DINER section.
Yes, there are still milkmen in Dallas. You just have to get up early to see them.
Don Kirkpatrick wakes up between 2:45 and 4:30 a.m. to make his morning deliveries of Borden products. (That's the first thing people want to know when they learn he's a milkman--what time he has to get up; the second is whether all those stories they hear about deliverymen are true.) His routes take him through Lake Highlands, north to McKinney and Allen, and all over Irving and Las Colinas. In 14 years of delivering dairy products and such, he's been adopted by enough families to fill Texas stadium. "Some houses, they have the coffee mug on the table waiting for me, with the sugar already in it," he notes.
Of course, Don's the type of person anyone would welcome into their family: an upright kind of guy, as they used to say back in the days when milk came in clear glass bottles with the cream snuggled up under the paper cap. Don's only 31, but he seems trained in the old school of considerate, personal service. He knows the names of his customers' kids and pets, he sends them Christmas cards, he even has keys to some of his customers' homes. Just like family.
Nowadays, the milkman--the whole home delivery concept, for that matter--seems like an anachronism, part of the Father Knows Best world of traditional family life. Houses and apartment buildings used to come equipped with milk boxes outside the kitchen door. In that era of less-modern conveniences, housewives relied on the twice-weekly delivery of milk and other perishable staples.
But times and attitudes and priorities are changing for companies and customers. We've already lost the Manor Bread man and other home-delivery services for good, and the number of milkmen is falling, with more retiring than signing on. Dairies see greater profits in supermarket sales--only Borden, Oak Farms, and Cabell still have home delivery--and shoppers find lower prices in store brands. Still, the 400 customers on Don Kirkpatrick's routes appreciate convenience, fresher milk, and the "Thank you, Don" written across the monthly bills by his wife and bookkeeper, Susie. "They must think I have the best handwriting," he grins. Good manners, too.
The morning we rode along with Don on his Irving route, it was 28 degrees at 4:45 a.m., but the streets were dry and the truck was heated, and Don learned long ago to dress in layers for his eight-plus hours of work. Don believes "it keeps you healthy, working outside with the temperature changes. I haven't taken a sick day in 14 years. I think that's why I have such loyal customers. They know I'll be there."
It's a good thing it's cold: until almost 7 a.m. when he makes his first box stop (actually entering the house to drop off the goods), everything's delivered to the doorstep. "These customers like their milk delivered to the back door," he says at one stop. "I'll take it anywhere they want it. Except the roof. I won't set it on the roof." You can almost hear him thinking he'd do it anyway if someone asked.
The first few stops are pretty routine orders: a gallon of whole, a gallon of skim, a dozen eggs, which Don has inspected for cracks. These gallons of milk are his bread and butter, so to speak. There's a 69-cent profit margin on gallons, even at Don's price of 11 cents below Borden's suggested retail for home delivery. (Tom Thumb's everyday price for a Borden gallon is $3.29; Don charges $3.34.) His customers are becoming more health-conscious, he says; he's selling more low-fat milk, and more yogurt to his higher-income accounts.
As the route progresses, he'll deliver other items, both dairy and non-dairy in nature. His order pad lists a variety of milk products, juices, cheeses, yogurt, and margarine. Then it gets really interesting: Crave a custom-made pizza? State your preference of toppings, and next milk delivery day, you'll find a fresh-frozen pizza from an Irving pizzeria in the fridge for $4.79. Out of laundry detergent? Don's got 10-pound boxes on the truck for $8.98. Local water taste funny? Spring water's on the list, too. Also, hot dogs, bacon, sausage, cold cuts, and the one that puzzled us in younger days: "novelties," which translates to ice cream sandwiches at $3.50 a dozen-box.
"In the long run, (home delivery) saves me money at the grocery store," says Vivian Walker, a customer in the pre-dawn hours. Don greets her dog George as he enters the kitchen. "Saves me time, too," she adds. "I'll go to the grocery store just for a gallon of milk and come out $44 and 30 minutes later!"
Most of Don's new customers are referrals from standing customers. They'll hear from a neighbor what's available and that it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. "Sometimes, they just see me driving by in my truck, and call the number on the side there," he says. And sometimes, it's all in the family, like one man and his son-in-law, living half a block apart. He points out his next stop. "You see generations grow up on a route. She was living at home when I got this route four years ago. Now she's moved off and is about to have her first baby." Sounds like a new generation of referrals is about to begin.
The question is whether there will be any home delivery by the time that baby's grown. Don says he's the next-to-youngest independent contractor delivering Borden products in the Dallas area. According to Cynthia Tucker of Borden, many of their 22 current milkmen (there are no women delivering Borden these days) are planning to retire in the next decade or so. As the ranks decrease, home delivery areas will not be restaffed as their drivers retire.
There are no benefits like insurance or credit unions available to independents. The hours are long: 12 to 14 hours some days, between deliveries and distribution center business. Recently, Borden revised its vacation policy, necessitating tighter scheduling for a driver's vacation days. They work all holidays except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the 4th of July.
These independents do their own books and collections, estimating their orders and income each month and hoping to balance out. "You have to be on a route for awhile before you get the ordering right," Don says. After 14 years, he often ends his delivery day with as little as a case left over. He figures each stop costs him around 25 cents in time and truck wear.
The other thing that might spell the demise of the milkman is the truck problem. The International Harvester line was discontinued several years ago when IH collapsed and reorganized under bankruptcy. The new company hasn't left its delivery truck owners completely in the cold--some parts are still being manufactured--but drivers have learned to be scavengers, finding "new" body and mechanical parts on wrecked and worn-out trucks. Don's 1972 IH Loadstar 1600 has 212,000 miles on it. "You can't hardly wear one of these trucks out. As long as you can get parts, you can drive it forever." (Good thing: at last notice, Chevrolet was still making delivery trucks, selling at a price comparable to a mid-range Mercedes.)
When he hasn't had time to forage for parts, Don's had to make do: driving his route without headlights, using his emergency flashers to make his presence known; loading the milk in his own pickup when the delivery truck needed repairs; doubling up his routes when a broken fan belt left him without heat during the January ice-over. That was the week Don watched his truck slide half a block down a glazed street before coming to a (blessedly) safe stop.
He estimates he logs about 600 miles a week, and the truck, and its repair bills, are all his. Last year, a couple of extraordinary foul-ups cost him $10,000 in maintenance and repairs. He carries his own insurance, and uses up more than $1,500 worth of tires every 12 months. Still, this job's the one for him "as long as I can make a living and find parts for my truck."
One thing's for sure: Don Kirkpatrick's job isn't threatened by lack of customer support. People stand in their front doorways and wave when Don tells them a reporter's riding around with him; some yell their praises across the front lawn: "He's fabulous!" "Couldn't do without him!" and so on.
Of course, he's earned the kudos. Going beyond the call of duty for his regulars, Don has lit an attic furnace and rallied Borden for a home delivery price decrease. (Price increases are one of the main reasons people cease home delivery.) Don's real good at straightening refrigerators to make the order fit, too. And he even knows there's still an Elsie the Cow at Borden, a relative of the original ol' bossy.
The customers respond. At Christmas, they load him down with candy, cakes, and other baked goods ("You could make up a recipe book from all the things I've gotten," he says), as well as shirts, sweaters, and year-end gratuities.
But probably the nicest thing Don Kirkpatrick receives is customer loyalty. One worried woman saw a new person riding in Don's truck, and sent her grandson out to ask Don if he was leaving the route. Long-time customers ask after his 12-year-old son, Eric, who sometimes rides along during vacations, and after Susie and eight-year-old daughter Jamie, who once made the jail delivery with her dad.
Yes, it sure can seem like family in this business. Don walks through the back door of one of his stops, announcing himself with one word, "milkman." Inside, the customer interrupts her phone conversation: "Hold on a minute, will you? Don's here."
