The 3453 grt, 16,000 bhp OSV is one of four similar ships in the ATL offshore fleet, two of which are UT 722 and two are UT 722L (L=long), all built at Halifax Shipyard under license from Ulstein. The boat was laid up for a time over last winter, and a large deck crane and other gear, such as an ROV davit have been removed.
While arriving it passed Atlantic Towing Ltd's Woodside tug base, where the usual four harbour tugs, Atlantic Oak, Atlantic Fir, Atlantic Willow and Atlantic Bear have been joined temporarily by Atlantic Larch. The latter tug will likely be towing out the barge Atlantic Sea Lion for northern supply work.
Atlantic Bear went to Saint John last week to assist with an LNG tanker, but returned to Halifax in time to put on a water demonstration for the inaugural call of the auto carrier Grande Halifax on Wednesday (see also Shipfax).

December 11, 2009 16:09 ET
BALTIMORE, MD--(Marketwire - December 11, 2009) - Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation
announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania on behalf of
purchasers of the securities of Hemispherx Biopharma, Inc. ("Hemispherx" or
the "Company") (AMEX: HEB) during the period between February 18, 2009 and
December 1, 2009, inclusive (the "Class Period").
No class has yet been certified in the above action. Members of the Class
will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead
plaintiff. If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class,
you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff no later than January 11,
2010 and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the
litigation and participate in important decisions including whether to
accept a settlement and how much of a settlement to accept for the Class in
the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants
claiming the largest loss from investment in the Company during the Class
Period. You are not required to have sold your shares to seek damages or
to serve as a Lead Plaintiff. You may contact Brower Piven (through
email@example.com or 410/986-0036) to answer any questions you may
have in that regard.
The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the Company's failure to disclose during
the Class Period that the FDA had requested several reports from the
Company before a New Drug Application for Ampligen could even be
considered, thus delaying the possible approval of Ampligen by several
months at a minimum. According to the complaint, on November 2, 2009,
after the Company belatedly disclosed this information, the value
of Hemispherx's stock declined significantly.
If you have suffered a net loss for all transactions in Hemispherx
Biopharma, Inc. securities during the Class Period (including shares or
possibly calls purchased during, but not sold until after the end of the
Class Period or possibly put options sold but not covered until after the
end of the Class Period), you may obtain additional information about this
lawsuit and your ability to become a lead plaintiff by contacting Brower
Piven at www.browerpiven.com, by email at firstname.lastname@example.com, by

obligation or cost to you, or you may retain other counsel of your choice.

Well, C's report card came today. As the teacher had hinted on the phone earlier, it was very positive (only 3's and 4's--1-4 scale, and S's and E's) and they only had warm fuzzy things to say about him. Not that he doesn't deserve the highest marks for his academic achievements (though I suspect he'll be getting some N's for his handwriting neatness in the not-so-distant future, like I did in elementary school).
But it is interesting that they haven't noticed that he gave up doing homework for Lent. Well, actually it's been since some point in January that he hasn't done ANY homework. Most weeks he gets a packet with four assignments for M-Th, that consist of practicing writing spelling words and "word family" words, a math worksheet or two, and some other worksheet. He originally went on strike about the spelling words (he hated writing them each three times, then sentences), and since Sarah had just read--and I skimmed and made her summarize--Alfie Kohn's masterful The Homework Myth: Why Our Kids Get Too Much of a Bad Thing, we couldn't really see a good reason to force him to into it, or any of the other homework when he decided to just start recycling the whole packet each week.
Especially in elementary school, the idea that kids who are doing fine in school need to routinely do homework nearly nightly seems ridiculous, especially after reading Kohn's research and arguments. I can see why an occasional special project can't be done on class time, or why students who are really struggling to learn the basic concepts might need extra guidance or tutoring at home, but not C at this point, not this year. As most of you know we already have a fairly tenuous attitude towards public school (we plan to take it year by year, and reserve the plan to pull him out for homeschooling at any point it seems like the costs are outweighing the benefits), so it will be interesting to see what happens when at some point his teachers start keeping track of who is doing homework (assuming they care more than we do). Right now the students are responsible for putting their homework in the bin to be corrected, and then it gets put back in their mailboxes upon checking, and the students empty their own mailboxes into their folders to bring home.
In other news, we enjoyed hosting our monthly potluck on Friday. While it had been warm and melty and spring was springing a couple days before, Friday looked a lot like this instead. Four families still ventured out, and we had fun helping shovel and push cars afterwards to get them back home again. The weekend ended up offering up two more potlucks, so we now have a new record of 3 evening potlucks in a row, with essentially the same crowd... Reminds me of the mealshare situation we liked so much when we lived in Seattle, and had shared meals 6 nights per week.
I'll be going to Maine for a mentoring conference this weekend for work. Too bad the accommodations are so crummy :). It does mean a lot of driving, though...
C has his school science fair tomorrow night. We should have pictures/tales to share from that soon.
Enjoy the Spring Equinox tomorrow. The birds here are doing their best to pretend that the snow doesn't exist. Maybe it won't continue to for much longer.

Report Cards and it's almost Spring (really?)
Well, C's report card came today. As the teacher had hinted on the phone earlier, it was very positive (only 3's and 4's--1-4 scale, and S's and E's) and they only had warm fuzzy things to say about him. Not that he doesn't deserve the highest marks for his academic achievements (though I suspect he'll be getting some N's for his handwriting neatness in the not-so-distant future, like I did in elementary school).

Regarding homework: I was a good little soldier and did it religiously until about 3rd grade, then stopped because I was so bored anyway. I started handing in short stories and other "non-approved" stuff and a letter was sent home. Oh well. Throughout high school I think I took home books one night a week (usually my French homework), and still managed to rank 3rd in my class of 177 with all AP classes. Go figure.
My nephew and his wife ventured out during the snow to make me a great-aunt. EEK! I'm getting old. I guess I'll have to start my own blog soon, though it'll be fairly dull, I imagine.
Enjoy your trip!

I agree with you on the homework situation. When I was still teaching, some parents asked for homework. For the most part, these were the parents of children who didn't need any extra practice. They were also the more creative parents & children who could develop appropriate activities for themselves. I tried to individualize suitable "homework" for these students, but the process was not easy. There were students who needed extra practice, & some parents were very cooperative about doing this or finishing work that needed to be done. Unfortunately, there were quite a few parents who had zero interest in what happened in school & refused to help in any way. It will be interesting to see if anyone catches on to C's scheme. I did not assign something unless I was going to check it.

I'm so sad you have to stay in such a horrible place!

I suspect that the homework is designed mstly for the satisfaction of parents who think it's an important component of a competitive school. It's really sad for me to imagine the struggles so many kids/ parents are probably already going through over first-grade homework, when clearly not even the teacher thinks it's important! (She didn't mention it at our conference yesterday, so I suspect it's still gone unnoticed. It used to be corrected and returned, so they do look at it, but they must not record it.)

Warner Bros. already wowed the Comic-Con audience with the first look at Ready Player One, but of course the most anticipated film of their annual presentation is Justice League, which finds the heroes of the DC Extended Universe joining forces to stand against a newfound enemy.
The film received a major skake-up recently with the announcement that director Zack Snyder would be leaving the project to deal with a family tragedy, with the studio tapping The Avengers director Joss Whedon to handle several weeks of reshoots and the remaining post-production duties. But based on this new trailer, things are still moving along nicely.
This looks appropriately epic, but hopefully the use of slow-motion in the finished film is less excessive than what we're seeing here. Also, there are a couple of really bad shots in this clip, like Aquaman surfing on the body of a vanquished parademon – I know we're still a few months out from the release, but I'm surprised that shot was used in this trailer.
Starring Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, and Ray Fisher as Cyborg, Justice League opens on November 10.
Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

It is so because they are worn on all the major occasions in India. Moreover, there are different styles in draping a saree. These techniques coupled with the unique look of each sarees play a significant role in depicting their popularity to the world. The saree is an integral part of a gala Indian wedding event. Sarees originated from India, and nowadays they have attained sheer popularity. On the other hand, the sarees are quite popular on most of the social occasions across India as wearing a saree retains the traditional flavor in an Indian wedding.

A convicted rapist and robber accused of sexually assaulting and murdering a 19-year-old woman in 1992, leaving her severely beaten body in an Irvine orange grove, has been extradited to Orange County from Mexico, prosecutors said.
Leonardo Pimentel Sanchez, 56, has been charged with one felony count of murder during the commission of rape, and has two prior felony strike convictions for a 1978 robbery and 1984 rape, according to a statement from the Orange County district attorney's office.
If convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of life in state prison without the possibility of parole, prosecutors said.
Sanchez, a resident of Mexico City, was arrested in Tijuana in November for causing a disturbance in a business, and Mexican authorities alerted the Orange County sheriff's department they had Sanchez in custody, prosecutors said. He was extradited to Orange County earlier this week, and his arraignment was scheduled for Thursday.
Prosecutors allege that between March 16 and March 19, 1992, Sanchez raped and killed Cari Ann Parnes in an Irvine orange grove. Field workers found her decomposing body days later.

Indianapolis Indians 6 at Charlotte Knights 0 (International League) - August 22, 2015
After a brief return to New York for work, I headed back to Charlotte to complete my Carolina Minors Trip. This time, the jaunt will only last four days, though I will get to add six ballparks to my venue count. The first stop was a Saturday afternoon tilt at Charlotte's new BB&T Ballpark, a downtown venue located next to the Panthers home, Bank of America Stadium.
It's only about 15 minutes from the airport to Mint Street, where the ballpark is located. Street parking is free on the weekend and evenings, so most games you should be able to find something reasonably close. There are also several lots close by that usually charge $5. On this day however, the Panthers had an evening exhibition game against Miami and the lots were already asking $25 or more, so I had to drive a few blocks away before I found a spot on Tryon Street. The benefit of this was walking past Green's Lunch, a diner with a very simple and cheap menu that sits right next to the ballpark and is a good spot to visit before or after the game.
BB&T Ballpark can boast of having the most expensive minor league tickets I have seen: $50 for what are known as Upper Club seats, visible on the upper left below. The Home Plate Club at $25 is a relative bargain, while the field box seats, which are all remaining seats down the lines, are $19 on game day. The HR seats in right field cost $16, with the view below. That is a lot for AAA baseball. Other outfield seating options are $13 and $11.
Thankfully standing room tickets are provided at $8 and there is a standing area along the concourse which has a table on which to rest your scorebook. As this is also in the shade, this is what I chose to do for most of the game.
This is also the one place where you can see the whole field without the protective netting atop the dugout obstructing some part of the infield or batters box. The ushers do check tickets here, though mostly to keep you out of the club seats. Halfway through, I was able to move into the field box seats without a problem.
The ballpark opened last season and has garnered rave reviews, though I found it to be fairly average for a new stadium. The downtown location is fantastic though, and offers skyline views from most sections.
This is the view from left-center field. These are where the $11 seats are.
The concourse is very spacious and more than enough for the crowd. There are several concession stands offering a wide variety of food, though I did not try anything after lunching at Green's, saving about $10 in the process. It can be expensive to eat at BB&T Ballpark, with prices rivalling the majors.
One cute feature is the 18-foot high dragon in center field, added this season. This reportedly blows smoke when the Knights homer or win the game, but sadly neither of those things happened on this day, so I did not witness the dragon in action.
Overall, BB&T Ballpark is a worthy addition to the International League and any downtown stadium is a plus in my book. Unfortunately, it is just a bit too pricy for my liking, but at least they have provided the standing option for us cheapskates.
The Game
On these trips, you can't pick your game to get the most interesting pitching matchup, but I lucked out in this one, seeing two hurlers on the opposite side of their career arcs. Kyle Drabek (16th overall pick in 2006, traded to Toronto in the Halladay deal, where he went 8-15 over 4 seasons, above), started for Charlotte (White Sox), while Tyler Glasnow (5th round in 2011 and now the #8 prospect in all of baseball, below) was on the hill for Indianapolis (Pittsburgh's affiliate despite the Indians nickname).
Glasnow has cruised through the minors and was making his 5th start in AAA. It didn't take long to see why he was so highly touted. He struck out 4 in the first two innings with his fastball hitting 95 on the gun. Drabek was not as effective, yielding a run in the 2nd when Josh Bell (#35 overall prospect) walked, went to second on a single by Jaff Decker, reached third on a wild pitch, and scored on a groundout by Tony Sanchez.
In the third, Keon Broxton (above, my PTW from a Midwest League game I saw in 2010) homered to deep center and Indy added a run after Jordy Mercer (below, down on rehab) singled, went to third on a Travis Snider double and scored on a Bell single.
Those three runs were more than enough for Glasnow who threw 6.1 scoreless innings, walking 2 and striking out 9 as he lowered his AAA ERA to 0.99.
The Indians added another three in the 9th highlighted by a Snider single. That's Snider on the left above; he was recently DFA'd by Baltimore and signed by Pittsburgh. On the right is Dayan Viciedo, who hit 21 homers for Chicago last year but still had a negative WAR and is looking for a team to bring him back to the majors. He probably needs to make other adjustments than the one he is making above.
The final was 6-0, but the Charlotte scorekeeper didn't seem to want to add those final three runs. For me, a very memorable game as I know I saw a future star.
BB&T also sponsors the stadium in nearby Winston-Salem, using the same name. Can't they differ them somehow? One can be a Ballpark, the other a Ballyard or Stadium? Otherwise, it gets a little confusing.
This was my 13th active International League ballpark, leaving only Gwinnett, I had originally planned to make the three-hour drive there after this one, but changed my mind when I realized that I could see more games by staying in the area. So Gwinnett will have to be saved for next season.

There goes our famous Glo-Toob AAA PRO, not sure if you heard of it before, but this is the newest gadget that replaces our glow-sticks! These little babies runs on a single AAA battery, be it a normal AAA or a NiMH. However, a little note here - if you are using NiMH, you will need to put an oring on the back of the battery to make the light work properly, or else the light cannot turn off.
In the picture above, you can see the lights in green, blue, red, orange, and white. You might wonder why the orange one look different - that is actually the older version, the non-PRO version. The new design is MUCH better and you can actually turn it on and off or change mode while even in the water, everything is VERY sealed up and water-proof!
In this picture you can see Glo-Toob(S) with a slim pen, nice size comparison. The aluminum tube in the body is actually nice, it reflects the light all the way back up and make the whole tube look like one light.
Fun enough, you do not twist the cap, you twist the middle of the cap, that "ring", to turn it on or off, or switch modes! There are 3 modes, low, high and flashing for signal!
The whole body is completely sealed up by that hard plastic and is strong enough to be used 200m under the water, so it is a nice diving light too!
this is how you can put the o-ring on the battery's butt.
You can see how the cap works, the middle section screws in and out, so it touches the battery then the light turns on.
This is a NexTorch attachment / gadget for the Glo-Toob, which is actually VERY useful for me somehow!
The screw can be adjusted using the ring on the Glo-Toob's cap!
When you screw it tight, the Glo-Toob is secured in place, and this is meant for helmets or tac-vest, but I used it on my camera strap, and man.. it's a super nice light for up-close shots! Floody beam!
There goes the back of the attachment, you can see the strap opens up like this, you can add this to your headlamp's strap too!

Trichomonas /
Test code:
- Ultrasensitive qualitative detection but not differentiation of several common
Trichomonas/Tritrichomonas species, including T. gallinae, T.
gallinarum, T foetus/suis, T. vaginalis and T. equi, by real time polymerase
chain reaction
X0013 is included on
P0028 - feline diarrhea panel
Many species in the genus Trichomonas/Tritrichomonas can infect
man, but trichomoniasis is also a major problem in poultry, birds and
horses. All trichomonads have three to five anterior flagella, an
undulating membrane, and a recurrent flagellum attached to the edge of
the undulating membrane. There is no cyst stage for this protozoan
Following are some Trichomonads posing major health threats to humans,
livestock, birds and other animals:
Trichomonas gallinaeThe parasite
causes avian trichomoniasis. When present, it is usually found in the
upper digestive tract of many species of doves and gallinaceous birds.
Some strains may also produce liver and lung lesions. The parasite is
transferred to young from the mother during feeding. Transmission
between birds may also occur from contaminated feed and water.
Infection by this trichomonad can be fatal. The presence of this
organism in doves is a common source of infection of falcons and hawks
feeding on them.
Trichomonas gallinarum This parasite
is mainly detected in cecum and liver of gallinaceous birds but it can
also be found in other visceral organs of the infected animals. T.
gallinarum affects many birds including poultry, and can cause
morbidity and mortality especially in young birds.
Tritrichomonas foetus/suis
T. foetus and T. suis are almost identical in genomic
composition, morphologic structures, ultrastructure, distribution,
host specificity, characteristics of in vitro cultivation, immunology
and biochemistry (Lun et al., 2005). Thus, it has been proposed that
T. foetus and T. suis are synonyms. While the parasite
can be found in the nasal passage, stomach, colon and large intestine
of swine, it does not appear to cause major health problems in them.
This trichomonad, however, causes trichomoniasis in cattle, resulting
in significant economic loss. The parasite is sexually transmitted and
resides in the reproductive tract of cattle. In females, the infection
may result in low-grade inflammation, sterility and poor conception
rate. In males, symptoms vary from no apparent signs to inflammation
of the prepuce. Treatment is difficult and usually not attempted.
Slaughter or breeding rest (females) are the usual methods employed in
dealing with bovine trichomoniasis.
Like other trichomonads, this organism multiplies by simple binary
fission and does not posses a cyst stage. This organism is called
Tritrichomonas foetus because it has three long flagellae at one
Traditionally, diagnosis was mainly based on microscopic evaluation of
the trophozoite stage. Mucus, exudates or saline washes from the
vagina and preputial cavity are the best samples for microscopic
examination. In cases of abortion, allantoic and amniotic fluids as
well as fetal tissues and membranes are examined. Serologic detection
by agglutination is also possible. However, none of these testing
methods are very sensitive, resulting in high false negative rates.
Trichomonas vaginalisT. vaginalis
causes human trichomoniasis. This parasite also resides in the human
reproductive tract. This is one of the most common sexually
transmitted diseases of man and often occurs with other more severe
concurrent infections. Chronic reproductive and urinary problems may
result in females. The parasite is transmitted sexually. Prevalence in
human populations varies between 10 and 25% among women. Only about
15% of infected women show clinical signs; many infected women are
asymptomatic carriers.
Other trichomonads known to infect humans include Trichomonas tenax
from the tarter and gums of the mouth and Pentatrichomonas hominis
from the human colon.
Trichomonas equi This parasite lives in
the intestine of horses and can be a potential cause of diarrhea in
Diagnosis of trichomoniasis may not be easy due to clinical symptoms
which may resemble those of poxvirus, candidiasis or vitamin A
deficiency. Trichomonas can be misidentified in initial
microscopic examination because of its similarity to Giardia.
The other difficulty in identification of this parasite is that the
trichomonad does not survive long after the death of the host.
Complementary testing by PCR may be used to eliminate false negative
microscopy results. Molecular detection by PCR does not require living
parasites and provides a high degree of sensitivity and specificity.

Wizards First Rule is firmly in the Fantasy genre. The narrative focuses on Richard Cypher a trail guide from a place with no magic. He must travel to other lands to help Kahlan Amnell save her own lands from invading forces led by a ruthless dictator, who also happens to be a wizard of great power.
Wizards First Rule is the first of a series of books focusing on Richard and Kahlan. Each book contains one of the wizard's rules. The rules in and of themselves are interesting to think about. The rest of the story gets political but it does not interrupt the story in anyway.
The themes in the overarching storyline get pretty dark but I would still highly recommend reading this book and possibly the rest of the stories as well.
Overall I would give this book 5 out of 5 stars. Although it is not for everyone i think the prevailing message and especially the wizard's rules are things that everyone should be aware of even if you don't agree with the opinions in the books.

United States District Court, S.D. West Virginia, Huntington
September 20, 2017
TERESA LYNN STEARNS, Plaintiff,v.NANCY A. BERRYHILL, ACTING COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
L. Tinsley, United States Magistrate Judge.
before this Court is Plaintiff's Brief in Support of
Judgment On the Pleadings (ECF No. 11) and Defendant's
Brief in Support of Defendant's Decision (ECF No. 14).
This is an action seeking review of the final decision of the
Commissioner of Social Security denying the Plaintiff's
application for Disability Insurance Benefits (DIB) under
Title II and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) under Title
XVI of the Social Security Act.
Teresa Lynn Stearns, filed applications for DIB and SSI on
January 18, 2013. Claimant alleged disability beginning May
1, 2009. The applications were denied initially on June 6,
2013, and upon reconsideration on October 9, 2013. Claimant
filed a request for hearing on November 20. 2013. A video
hearing was held on February 4, 2015. Claimant appeared in
Huntington, West Virginia, and the Administrative Law Judge
presided over the hearing from St. Louis, Missouri. The
Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) denied Claimant's
applications on February 9, 2015 (Tr. at 9-19). The Appeals
Council denied Claimant's request for review on May 24,
2016 (Tr. at 1-3). Subsequently, Claimant brought the present
action seeking judicial review of the administrative decision
pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g).
of Review
42 U.S.C. § 423(d)(5), a claimant for disability has the
burden of proving a disability. See Blalock v.
Richardson, 483 F.2d 773, 774 (4th Cir. 1972). A
disability is defined as the "inability to engage in any
substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically
determinable impairment which can be expected to last for a
continuous period of not less than 12 months . . . ." 42
U.S.C. § 423(d)(1)(A).
Social Security Regulations establish a "sequential
evaluation" for the adjudication of disability claims.
20 C.F.R. § 404.1520 (2016). If an individual is found
"not disabled" at any step, further inquiry is
unnecessary. Id. § 404.1520(a). The first
inquiry under the sequence is whether a claimant is currently
engaged in substantial gainful employment. Id.
§ 404.1520(b). If the claimant is not, the second
inquiry is whether claimant suffers from a severe impairment.
Id. § 404.1520(c). If a severe impairment is
present, the third inquiry is whether such impairment meets
or equals any of the impairments listed in Appendix 1 to
Subpart P of the Administrative Regulations No. 4.
Id. § 404.1520(d). If it does, the claimant is
found disabled and awarded benefits. Id. If it does
not, the fourth inquiry is whether the claimant's
impairments prevent the performance of past relevant work.
Id. § 404.1520(e). By satisfying inquiry four,
the claimant establishes a prima facie case of
disability. Hall v. Harris, 658 F.2d 260, 264 (4th
Cir. 1981). The burden then shifts to the Commissioner,
McLain v. Schweiker, 715 F.2d 866, 868-69 (4th Cir.
1983), and leads to the fifth and final inquiry: whether the
claimant is able to perform other forms of substantial
gainful activity, considering claimant's remaining
physical and mental capacities and claimant's age,
education and prior work experience. 20 C.F.R. §
404.1520(f) (2016). The Commissioner must show two things:
(1) that the claimant, considering claimant's age,
education, work experience, skills and physical shortcomings,
has the capacity to perform an alternative job, and (2) that
this specific job exists in the national economy.
McLamore v. Weinberger, 538 F.2d 572, 574 (4th Cir.
When a
claimant alleges a mental impairment, the Social Security
Administration " must follow a special technique at
every level in the administrative review process." 20
C.F.R. §§ 404.1520a(a) and 416.920a(a). First, the
SSA evaluates the claimant's pertinent symptoms, signs
and laboratory findings to determine whether the claimant has
a medically determinable mental impairment and documents its
findings if the claimant is determined to have such an
impairment. Second, the SSA rates and documents the degree of
functional limitation resulting from the impairment according
to criteria as specified in 20 C.F.R. §§
404.1520a(c) and 416.920a(c). Those sections provide as
(c) Rating the degree of functional limitation.
(1) Assessment of functional limitations is a complex and
highly individualized process that requires us to consider
multiple issues and all relevant evidence to obtain a
longitudinal picture of your overall degree of functional
limitation. We will consider all relevant and available
clinical signs and laboratory findings, the effects of your
symptoms, and how your functioning may be affected by factors
including, but not limited to, chronic mental disorders,
structured settings, medication and other treatment.
(2) We will rate the degree of your functional limitation
based on the extent to which your impairment(s) interferes
with your ability to function independently, appropriately,
effectively, and on a sustained basis. Thus, we will consider
such factors as the quality and level of your overall
functional performance, any episodic limitations, the amount
of supervision or assistance you require, and the settings in
which you are able to function. See 12.00C through 12.00H of
the Listing of Impairments in appendix 1 to this subpart for
more information about the factors we consider when we rate
the degree of your functional limitation.
(3) We have identified four broad functional areas in which
we will rate the degree of your functional limitation:
Activities of daily living; social functioning;
concentration, persistence, or pace; and episodes of
decompensation. See 12.00C of the Listings of Impairments.
(4) When we rate the degree of limitation in the first three
functional areas (activities of daily living, social
functioning; and concentration, persistence, or pace), we
will use the following five-point scale: None, mild,
moderate, marked, and extreme. When we rate the degree of
limitation in the fourth functional area (episodes of
decompensation), we will use the following four-point scale:
None, one or two, three, four or more. The last point on each
scale represents a degree of limitation that is incompatible
with the ability to do any gainful activity.
after rating the degree of functional limitation from the
claimant's impairment(s), the SSA determines their
severity. A rating of "none" or
"mild" in the first three functional areas
(activities of daily living, social functioning; and
concentration, persistence, or pace) and "none"
in the fourth (episodes of decompensation) will yield a
finding that the impairment(s) is/are not severe unless
evidence indicates more than minimal limitation in the
claimant's ability to do basic work activities. 20 C.F.R.
§§ 404.1520a(d)(1) and 416.920a(d)(1). Fourth, if
the claimant's impairment(s) is/are deemed severe, the
SSA compares the medical findings about the severe
impairment(s) and the rating and degree and functional
limitation to the criteria of the appropriate listed mental
disorder to determine if the severe impairment(s) meet or are
equal to a listed mental disorder. 20 C.F.R. §§
404.1520a(d)(2) and 416.920a(d)(2). Finally, if the SSA finds
that the claimant has a severe mental impairment(s) which
neither meets nor equals a listed mental disorder, the SSA
assesses the Claimant's residual functional capacity. 20
C.F.R. §§ 404.1520a(d)(3) and 416.920a(d)(3). The
Regulation further specifies how the findings and conclusion
reached in applying the technique must be documented at the
ALJ and Appeals Council levels as follows:
At the administrative law judge hearing and the Appeals
Council levels, the written decision issued by the
administrative law judge and the Appeals Council must
incorporate the pertinent findings and conclusions based on
the technique. The decision must show the significant
history, including examination and laboratory findings, and
the functional limitations that were considered in reaching a
conclusion about the severity of the mental impairment(s).
The decision must include a specific finding as to the degree
of limitation in each of the functional areas described in
paragraph (c) of this section.
20 C.F.R. §§404.1520a(e)(2) and 416.920a(e)(2).
In this
particular case, the ALJ determined that Claimant satisfied
the first inquiry because she has not engaged in substantial
gainful activity since the amended alleged onset date of
January 1, 2011, and meets the insured status requirements
through December 31, 2016 (Tr. at 12). Under the second
inquiry, the ALJ found that Claimant suffers from the severe
impairments: diffuse degenerative changes of the lumbar
spine, bipolar disorder NOS, generalized anxiety disorder,
panic disorder and polysubstance dependence that is in
remission. (Id.) At the third inquiry, the ALJ
concluded that Claimant did not have an impairment or
combination of impairments that met or medically equaled the
level of severity of any listing in Appendix 1 (Tr. at 13).
The ALJ then found that Claimant has a residual functional
capacity to perform a range of work at the light exertional
level (Tr. at 15). The ALJ found Claimant would have the
following limitations: Claimant cannot climb ladders, ropes
or scaffolds and can only occasionally climb ramps or stairs,
stoop, kneel, crouch or crawl. She is further limited to
simple, routine tasks that do not involve interaction with
the general public and only occasional interaction with
coworkers. (Id.) The ALJ found that Claimant is
unable to perform any past relevant work (Tr. at 18). The ALJ
concluded ...

15-18 September, 2015
The Congress will take place at the state-of-the-art Cape Town International Convention Centre. It is a sign of this venue's popularity that, when we made inquiries late last year, only one week remained in September 2015 during which the Congress could be accommodated. Although the LOC realised that many of our members prefer the informality (and relatively low cost) of holding the event on university premises, we also discovered that ILERA (the former IIRA) is also holding its World Congress in Cape Town in September 2015, and had already taken steps to hold it on the campus of the University of Cape Town during the vacation week that month (more about this later). Given that there are few conference venues large enough to host up to 1000 delegates comfortably, the LOC decided to take the plunge and make the reservation at CTICC. The dates are therefore confirmed for the 15 to 18 September 2015.
A unique feature of the event will be the integration of the SASLAW Annual Congress with the World Congress, with a view to attracting the maximum number of South (and Southern) African delegates (this accounts for the large number of delegates we are preparing to accommodate). In essence, it will involve including a number of sessions with topics likely to appeal to local as well as international delegates as one of the Congress themes. A network of South African labour and social security law academics is being built up to assist the LOC as a 'think tank' in designing a programme which will address cutting-edge issues and, we believe, will attract lively interest from practitioners as well as researchers internationally.
That brings us back to the ILERA Congress which (as in Sydney in 2009) may well take place back-to-back with the ISLSSL Congress. While some would see this as 'competition', we prefer to see it as an opportunity. Discussion has already begun with our colleagues on the ILERA organising committee with a view to harmonising our programmes in such a way as to encourage the maximum number of delegates attend both events. Also, from a scientific point of view, in-depth analysis by leading scholars of similar or related issues from different disciplinary perspectives could lead to an exciting advance of knowledge.
Preparations are thus in full swing. Negotiations for the appointment of a professional congress organiser are well advanced and the plan is to have a congress website online in the first half of 2013. An intensive campaign to announce and build the event is planned for the next two and a half years, in which affiliated associations of the International Society will be asked to keep their members informed. The LOC is confident that the Congress has the potential to generate tremendous interest, both at a scientific level and as an experience, while enabling close networking between international delegates and their South African counterparts who have gone through some of the most exciting and challenging phases of transition in the labour field in modern times. Last but not least, Cape Town as host city will ensure a stimulating and beautiful environment. Voted the world's number one tourist destination by Tripadvisor in
2011 and the world's second-best city by Condé Nast Traveller in 2012 (the best was Charleston, USA in case you're wondering). Cape Town is located next to one of the world's seven natural wonders (Table Mountain) and two UNESCO world heritage sites (Robben Island and the Cape Floral Region), we are sure its many attractions will encourage maximum attendance. Building on the traditions of many excellent world congresses held in beautiful and historic cities in past years, we believe that the XXI World Congress will be an experience that will long be remembered.

Release Date: 16 January 2015
Certification: 15
Running Time: 132 min
Director: Clint Eastwood
Starring: Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller, Kyle Gallner, Jake McDorman, Mido Hamada, Luke Grimes
Opening in the UK a day after the Oscar nominations were announced, Clint Eastwood's biopic cum war film American Sniper hits our shores with six of the buggers, including nods for Best Actor, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Picture. The story of the most lethal sniper in US military history, this picture is the latest attempt by Hollywood at turning the complex, morally uncertain war in Iraq into some kind of middle-brow Oscar bait, following in the footprints of films like In the Valley of Elah, Green Zone and The Hurt Locker.
After seeing news reports of US embassies being bombed in Tanzania and Kenya, thick-necked, bronco-riding, Texan patriot Chris Kyle enlists in the navy SEALs at the ripe old age of thirty. Despite being considerably older than all the other recruits, Kyle excels at the usual military training guff: doing push-ups while being shouted at, jogging while being shouted at and shooting at targets on a range while being shouted at. Once trained up, Kyle falls in love and after getting married is promptly shipped out to the middle east. However, the Chris Kyle who returns to Texas is a very different man from the one who left, as the stresses and traumas of several tours in Iraq begin to show.
Eastwood handles the story with assurance and clarity, his unfussy style perfectly suited to the rigid and disciplined lifestyle of those serving in the military. Scenes of combat are well staged; managing to keep a sense of coherence amidst the carnage. After the weird tangents of Invictus, Hereafter and Jersey Boys, it's good to see Eastwood working on a film that is perhaps more obviously suited to a man of his talents. Bradley Cooper is superb in the lead role as a stoic, intensely focused man who may be starting to quietly come apart at the seams. Lacking in any big grandstanding moments, it's a wonderfully restrained performance that's more than matched by that of Sienna Miller's turn as Kyle's wife Taya who is equal parts frustrated and loving in the face of her husband's increasing emotional distance.
Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of director and stars, American Sniper is far too much a film about 'Murica (fuck yeah!) to offer a meaningful look at the war or its effects on those who fight it. Chris Kyle is presented as some kind of super soldier who can spot insurgents by their elbows, kill from just under two kilometres away and go through four tours in Iraq without getting a scratch. In real life Chris Kyle was a deeply controversial figure (some of the sentiments in the book on which this was based are utterly repellent) while in the film he is portrayed as a saintly figure, a killer with a conscience and a man who is only in the army to protect people. By painting Kyle as a flawless all-American hero, the end product is akin to coffee with too much cream; beige and diluted.
Like a lot of recent films about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, there is a sense of disconnect between the thrilling tales of heroism depicted and the ugly, senseless waste of human life that exists in reality. Works like Lone Survivor, The Hurt Locker and American Sniper lack the sense of moral outrage of Vietnam war films like Casualties of War or Full Metal Jacket preferring instead to try and wring some patriotic triumphalism from American audiences. Indeed the Vietnam film that these movies resemble most closely is the the jingoistic nonsense of John Wayne's The Green Berets made in 1968 at the height of the Vietnam war.
A well crafted and acted war drama directed by a Hollywood legend and based on a true story; American Sniper is the kind of easily digestible biopic that Academy voters lap up. It's solidly made and with a lot to recommend it, just don't go looking for any shades of grey. There aren't any, just red, white 'n' blue.

Double Dutch and The Ave…
Racism exists on both sides of Dot Ave. Things have become better over the years but tensions do flare from time to time. The questions being raised by the recent Ups and Downs stabbings sparked my interest in writing about this. And I will try to be as candid and fair as possible.
Those white folks in the area tend to have a beef with minorities regarding their lack of pride in the neighborhood. From messy streets and condemned homes to the cowardly use of weapons. Crimes involving young kids are especially troubling and always at the top of gripe list.
To most of the older white crowd….even if you were poor and didn't own the apartment within your triple decker, how it looked and how you looked after everyone on the block was always a source of pride. Your kid may come home with a black eye on occasion or get into trouble but it was always treated as a life lesson. As much as it might have broken the heart of every Dorchester mom. You were taught to pick yourself up, get tougher, right the wrong, move on and fight another day. I wouldn't trade those lessons for anything and I'm a better man today because of them. Most of the kids you had once fought with became good friends down the road…..and the community bonds were strengthened.
I think on both sides many would agree, we do not see enough pride in black neighborhoods, it just seems like all out destruction. I can't sugar coat this reality, it bothers the hell out me. White folks from these parts are also very aware that racism is a 2 way street. We tend to get very defensive when someone perpetuates a racist agenda against white people because of a perceived birth rite due to past suffering….nobody is entitled to a double standard. On a personal level I find it heartbreaking to hear of parents telling their children that the cards are stacked against them because of the color of their skin. Nobody should be told to feel ashamed or limited in any way because of their skin color. As parents we should be making our kids feel like the sky is the limit, we should not be giving them a built in excuse to fail.
Irish folks have had their fair share of issues since our mass migration to this country along with every other European ethnic group. From alcoholism and drug abuse, to single parent households and the rise of our own mafia factions. We have definitely not been angels…and the stories have made millionaires out of a few….while breaking the hearts of many.
Busing brought Southie and Charlestown into the crosshairs of the entire nation because of the striking contrast between white and black neighborhoods. It made for perfect television. The Dorchester riots were completely overshadowed. Here you had white kids and black kids on toeing a line yet living within blocks of each other. The fights continued in the streets long after the final bell was rung at Dorchester High. The irony was the combatants where neighbors. South Boston and Charlestown didn't have that dynamic. In the end, the busing "experiment" could be summed up like this. Solid race relations cannot be forced by a court…it starts in the home.
My experience with race relations started when I entered Boston Public Schools at the tail end of the riots. Being 4 years old you don't really give a rats ass who your playing with. So elementary school was a great experience. I was always the minority in my class so that was normal to me. My classmates where fun, smart and had all the same interests as I did. I have fond memories of being one of 4 white kids in the school yard and all the black girls laughing at my chubby ass trying to double dutch and getting tripped up….there was never tension.
All of this changed when I hit middle school, the Oliver Wendell Holmes for advanced classes. This Dot Rat did pretty good in school and I was looking forward making some new friends. The goal was eventually Latin but it didn't quite turn out that way, it was as if someone hit a switch, for the first time in my life I was called a honky and a cracker. Nobody would talk to me and I was spit on my first day. I remember I came home and asked my pops what a honky was…I was oblivious. His face changed from curiosity to rage in less than a second. This started a period in my school career that bounced me all over the parochial and public school system in Boston. When my parents couldn't afford a Catholic school I ended up back in public school. While some of the black kids in my classes accepted me, most didn't…and that never changed. I wouldn't say I grew hate in my heart because I could always draw on my good times in elementary school. But I was certainly growing bitter…I knew I was spending too much time looking over my shoulder as opposed to my books. My grades went downhill and I started retaliating on a regular basis. When you get sucker punched in the back of the head for being white then decide to return the favor with a desk….you can pretty much kiss Boston Latin goodbye.
I always wondered why they played Ebony and Ivory by Wonder & McCartney over the loudspeakers between classes. Some hippie teacher probably thought this would help matters….
The irony here is I know there's a black man or woman here in Boston, at about the same age, that probably had an identical experience in an all white school. Given the history of the Irish experience here in Dot, and what I know of black experience, our list of problems and hardships we endure on both sides of Dot Ave are not always the same but do bear quite a resemblance. Many of these problems exist out of sheer lack of money and have nothing to do with skin color. If you dig further into our history and take into account redlining and blockbusting, it's easy to see why resentment can bubble over at times. The lack of trust exists and old wounds have been passed to new generations but, it doesn't have to stay that way.
With that in mind, there's an open invite here. I want a black Dot Rat to write a piece about his or her experience and gripes.
I think an open dialogue would be way more constructive than sitting in some shitty bar under the Neponset Bridge shooting dirty looks back and forth. To me Dot is the best slice of Boston, why not make it a little better?

Managers of maintenance systems continually strive for leaner, more optimized work flows for providing asset repair and maintenance services. Gaining access to and harnessing as much information as possible are keys to achieving this endeavor.
But in many cases, the maintenance management systems at manufacturing firms, municipalities and higher education institutions operate in isolation from other systems that contain valuable information. Information directly related to an asset or information that directly impacts the management of that asset. This includes the ERP system as well as HR, GIS, HMI/SCADA, and an array of vendor and supply-chain systems.
Integration with all of these systems and channeling the information they contain helps maintenance managers determine more efficient and effective ways for providing services on assets. The additional information can help maintenance staffs become more proactive and ensure that asset maintenance schedules do not interfere with production or operations schedules to the greatest extent possible.
In addition to benefitting the maintenance management system, interoperability also benefits any of the inter-connected systems and their associated work flow. By having additional information on the maintenance and condition status of assets, managers of each of these systems can also operate their departments more efficiently since they have the ability to make more informed decisions.
This white paper presents the benefits achieved by interoperating with ERP, GIS and HMI/SCADA systems. The paper also presents the different approaches that organizations are taking to address the interoperability challenge.

I wasn't sure if this was better to go into the Kernel or Pacman forum so please feel free to move this post to the better of the two
I have a ZFS root system, but this topic applies to any system using ZFS, whether root or not
Certain call methods for creating DKMS with kernels 4.13.3 and newer have been updated, which are incompatible with ZFS on Linux 7.3 and SPL 7.3 packages - DKMS will not build when upgrading using Pacman or manually – you will get errors such as:
spl.ko needs unknown symbol vfs_write
spl.ko needs unknown symbol vfs_read
when DKMS attempts to build the kernel extensions because these flags have been depreciated in the newest kernel.
This bug is known and addressed in the newest version, ZFS + SPL 7.4, and a patch is also available. The problem is described on github here: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/spl/issues/656
In the meantime, if you haven't already, make sure to get the LTS kernel and headers:
$ sudo pacman -S linux-lts linux-lts-headers
Note: Always install LTS when using ZFS on root, otherwise you might find yourself with a non-bootable system if the upgrade of the primary kernel doesn't work properly!
Tip: It's prudent to add
linux-lts to your IgnorePkg line and remove it only once you know you have a working mainline kernel and headers (IgnorePkg explained below) – or even more cautious to ignore it indefinitely to make sure you always have a non-moving kernel to fall back on.
Note: Holding back your kernel and kernel headers is not the same as holding back other packges in an Arch-based system. They can be held back for as long as current packages still support them, which is likely to be several years.
To fix your non-LTS kernel, hold it back for the meantime until the ZFS + SPL packages in the Antergos repo get upgraded to 7.4
The easiest way to do this is get the downgrade package from the AUR:
$ yaourt downgrade
Once it's installed, run downgrade as sudo for both linux and linux-headers. You have to run it separately for each one:
$ sudo downgrade linux
$ sudo downgrade linux-headers
When choosing a kernel, I'd recommend 4.12.13-1 as the newest kernel one would want to use with ZFS 7.3. Make sure to get the same linux-headers version you chose as linux kernel!
After the older kernel and headers are installed, downgrade will ask you if you want to add the package to
IgnorePkg in
/etc/pacman.conf - e.g. :
add linux-headers to IgnorePkg? [y/n]
y for each one and the kernel and headers will be ignored when upgrading your system until you remove the
IgnorePkg line in
/etc/pacman.conffor each one.
When you're ready to upgrade your kernel after the ZFS and SPL in the Antergos repo have been upgraded to version 7.4, simply edit
/etc/pacman.conf and delete or comment out the IgnorePkg line:
$ sudo nano /etc/pacman.conf
add a
# to the beginning of the line to comment it out and it will upgrade as normal:
#IgnorePkg = linux linux-headers
CTRL-X will exit you from nano, asking if you want to save the file before you leave.
Now reboot your system and it should work. If not, use your LTS kernel to boot or use a fallback in the
advanced options menu in GRUB.
Once you get back inside your booting system, type:
$ uname -r
To show your kernel version. If there was a problem booting your new kernel (if you get an error regarding your pool or ZFS not functioning), reboot into your LTS kernel and update your grub. I like to use the
update-grub wrapper from Ubuntu because it's dead simple. Install it by invoking:
$ yaourt update-grub
Then run
$ sudo update-grub
Or you can do it the old-fashioned way without installing anything:
$ sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Note: If you've booted into a working mainline kernel as shown with
uname -r (4.12.13, for example) and your
/etc/pacman.conf has an
IgnorePkg for
linux-lts, now is a good time to remove
linux-lts from
IgnorePkg, update linux-lts, and then put
linux-lts back in your
IgnorePkg line.
Good luck!

August Stars Hollow Monthly Subscription Box
If you're out on the road, feeling lonely and so cold. All you have to do is call my name and I'll be there on the next train. Where you lead, I will follow, anywhere that you tell me to. If you need, you need me to be with you, I will follow… where you lead.
Today we are going to be unboxing and doing a review of the Stars Hollow Monthly subscription box! Each box is $34, and the value of the box comes to double the cost. I'm so excited for the fall and winter boxes because it's my favorite time of year, and considering Stars Hollow is located in Massachusetts, I'm sure there are a ton of amazing items to come!
So this is what I received in my Stars Hollow Monthly subscription box:
August Stars Hollow Monthly Subscription Box
Doose's Market Mug ($14.99 Value)
Even though Taylor was one of the most annoying characters for me on the show, you have to admit the man had the cutest shops. I wish Doose's existed in real life. This mug is awesome. The emblem isn't painted on the mug (it's pressed on), which immediately makes me think I'm going to need to wash it by hand. I did already have someone who thought the mug was for a real place that spelled "deuces" wrong….
"I Drink Coffee Like a Gilmore" Tumbler ($14.99 Value)
I may or may not have squealed when I opened the box and saw this. I'm OBSESSED with good coffee, and I've been needing a larger tumbler to bring my morning cup of coffee to work in. I have a test that any travel cup has to pass for my morning coffee. It has to keep my coffee hot when it's poured while I'm getting ready for the day, it has to survive the car ride to work, and then it has to still be piping hot when I get to the office (because sometimes, as Mr Heckles from FRIENDS would say, I wasn't ready for it). This passed with flying colors.
Luke's Non-Slip 4 Pk Coasters ($19.99 Value)
I only have a slight note for these… the "non-slip" part refers to the bottom gripping onto the table, not the coaster holding onto your drink. There is a difference for me. Besides that, these are so unique and awesome. I'm not sure if the people who partner with the box write the price for what it retails for, but I personally wouldn't pay $20 for these. But either way, the value of the box covers what I would actually pay, and I love them.
Stars Hollow Coffee Sample ($2.99 Value)
Oi with the poodles already! This entire box is basically coffee themed, and I'm not mad about it — Lorelei Gilmore is basically my spirit animal. Lit Cube also has a coffee club in addition to their two other subscription boxes, so if you're a coffee lover, you may want to add that on to your list to check out as well! I haven't gotten around to trying this one quite yet, but it smells a bit berry-esque which will be interesting for when it gets a little cooler out.
So that's it! What do you think of this box? The fact I have a huge love for coffee, hot chocolate, and any other hot fall drink means I was a pretty big fan of this box. You can check out Lit-Cube and the Stars Hollow Monthly subscription boxes here.
