New Year, New You: Introducing Nexis Uni and a few IUCat Updates
Starting this semester, there are a few changes that took place within the library online catalog, IUCAT. First, IUCAT Classic has officially retired and can no longer be accessed. The IU Libraries have been working for several years to update and make improvements to the online catalog, IUCAT. While all this has been happening, IUCAT Classic was kept around as a way to search for items, specifically Class Reserves, while improvements and changes were made to the new and improved IUCAT that is now in place. Now that the current IUCAT has all the necessary features ready and everything is working smoothly, IUCAT Classic retired on December 17, 2017. Most users may not have noticed a difference or may not … Continued

Because my life is just that exciting
I'm back in Dallas and all settled in. It's nice to be back in Texas but I'm missing Tucson. The mountains were awesome whereas the scenery here is... lacking. BUT, I made the right decision as I was going completely broke out there. :)
I'm now two weeks-ish in to my long-term sub job at a local elementary. Seriously, who would have ever thought I would be working with PreK!? Four and five year olds... it's a scary thought. But they've turned out to be pretty entertaining! I spend a few hours each day with the Bilingual class and I'm in there during the spanish part of the day. Very little of my HS spanish is coming back to me but I can sing you a "Days of the Week" song in spanish (to the tune of the Muensters theme song.)
I've got some hilarious stories but for the sake of those with weaker stomachs... I won't write about them! (My advice to those with kids: even when they're potty trained, have them pack an extra set of clothes in their backpack.) 3 more days and then a one week break for T-Give!
Unfortunately, there is no Peace Corps update which is driving me crazy. Patience is not my gift. (Although working with PreK, I do think it's improving!) I'm hoping that I'll find out in February or March. The PC powers that be told me that I should find out 2-3 months before my departure date in May.
In other news (the only other thing going on in my life) is that my dad and I pulled down my mom's old bike. I mean old, but awesome. Before it was done I asked her how long she'd had it. She figured about 50 years or so. When we got it down, I saw the license plate on the bike that expired in September of 1955. Who knew bikes used to have license plates? That bike is a classic! My dad and I are now on a slow moving project to fix up the bike. (It's still the original... basket, tassels, all! There is a missing kick stand which is kind of a problem.) Pictures to come!
Man, that was an update. Back to my current book: Three Cups of Tea. (It's a good one too, look it up.)

for the record, those tassels are only 30 years old. I jazzed up the look when I was a single girl riding bikes in the Village.

You are in the classroom and your mom is in the liberry. How cool is that? I want to hear some classrooom stories. I wish i could see you in this scenario.I can imagine you tooling around the Branch on that bike. I had one too. Norman painted mine flouresent orange for me to ride in the 80's, but then gave it to Goodwill. If only i had known Vicki still had hers, i would have given you mine and you could have fixed up both of them for you and a friend. I cant wait to see the pictures. love to you.

It's not you. You need a blog facelift. This layout is so not you. jk

Satyadev is a young medical student doing his studies at the best MBBS college in Bangladesh. Satyadev is originally from the Indian city of Shimla. Satyadev misses the cold temperature of Shimla too much in Bangladesh but he can't help it.
Satyadev's family is all very well-educated. His uncle is a famous astronaut who went to the moon as well. Satyadev's grandparents sacrificed a lot to raise their kids in the best environment with the best education possible.
An aunt of Satyadev is a general practitioner. She always annoys Satyadev by saying the same thing "Medical Science has undergone great changes within only a couple of decades".
Satyadev loves muscle cars and that's the reason why he drove a HM Contessa in Shimla. He bought an old Toyota Camry in Bangladesh. He looked for a Contessa on the newspaper, internet and magazine ads but couldn't find one.
Satyadev's sister has recently started experimenting with a raw vegan diet and Satyadev is absolutely against it. A Christian uncle of Satyadev is a flat-earther and he always ends up arguing with Satyadev on a random subject whenever they meet.
An aunt of Satyadev is against all sorts of artificial contraceptions and women in the workplace. This aunt of Satyadev has a reputation of never lying. She is a writer by profession and has ghostwritten several songs as well for the Punjabi and Bollywood Hindi movies. She used to be absent all the times in her school. Her favorite season is winter. She loves to write in the winters with a room heater on with a blanket wrapped all over her body.
This aunt of Satyadev also suffers from chronic migraine and mild depression in the summers.

Prospect Update: Shesterkin Opens up KHL Season
Plus upcoming European Scheduleby New York Rangers @NYRangers / New York Rangers
Goaltender Igor Shesterkin opens up the regular season with SKA St. Petersburg against CSKA in the Kontinental Hockey League. The 2014 draft choice went 31-4-1 last season to go along with a 1.64 GAA and a .937 SV% and eight shutouts, all of which were career-highs.
"His best attributes are his ability to read the play, stay composed and control rebounds," said Nickolai Bobrov, the Rangers' Director of European Scouting. "[He is] a very technically sound goalie. He is mature beyond his years and is a proven big-game player."
Several other Rangers prospects are opening up their seasons this week, including 2017 draft picks Filip Chytil and Calle Sjalin, who will represent the Czech Republic and Sweden, respectively, at the U20 Four Nations Tournament that begins Aug. 24.
Chytil, meanwhile, is expected to play for Zlin in a Czech Extraliga preseason game Tuesday against Pardubice.
2017 first-round pick Lias Andersson opens up the 2017-18 Champions Hockey League with Frolunda against Zurich on Thursday. The CHL is a European tournament consisting of 32 teams from the Swedish Hockey League, Finland's Liiga, the Swiss National League, the Czech Extraliga, Germany's Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the Austrian Hockey League and several others from surrounding countries.
Dominik Lakatos' Liberec (Liiga) opens the tournament on Thursday against Vaxjo, while Tarmo Reunanen and Patrik Virta of TPS (Liiga) face Mountfield on the game day.
Lastly, 2015 fourth-round pick Daniel Bernhardt opens the Allsvenskan (Sweden) preseason with BIK Karlskoga against Leksands.

Open Source/GNU Software for MacOS X - Summary
Since Apple MacOS X is a member of UNIX family and shares many parts and components with other open source operating systems (especially FreeBSD), it is obviously that capabilities and features of MacOS X may be greatly extended with enormous number of free software packages. Apple did not provided "unified" method of installing and maintaining of UNIX-derived software and its components (please do not mix up it with MacOS X native software installed via drag-and-drop file/folder copying). This is probably caused by the assumption that MacOS X already has all UNIX components needed by the majority of users. However, certain tasks require extension or replacement of UNIX parts of MacOS X. This situation created opportunity for several solutions tailored for certain auditory. Below you will find those I have found so far (end of November of 2002).
Fink is a MacOS X port of package management system APT (Advanced Package Tool), package manager dpkg, and some front-ends for these tools from Debian/GNU Linux. However, this is only a part of Fink does for MacOS X. The greatest feature of Fink is that it creates its own UNIX directory tree (separated from MacOS X) where it keeps all its files (UNIX directory tree in brief described here).
Fink, as well as all UNIX software properly packaged with Fink (except Darwin/MacOS X version of XFree86 windowing system) do not install anything into MacOS X system directories (including "/usr/local") or alter any MacOS X system file(s). Thus, it is completely safe. If something goes wrong, one can just erase entire Fink directory without damaging MacOS X. However, please take into account that Fink tracks only software installed with Fink itself !
In short: Fink is the most complete and powerful set of Open Source software for MacOS X. For further learning, please refer to "Safe and Happy UNIX Hacking with MacOS X".
OSX GNU is the second largest repository of Open Source software for MacOS X. Unlike Fink, it uses native MacOS X packages (archived with pax). However, each OSX GNU package has an extra item - BOM (Bill of Material) file, which is being installed along with the package and contains list of all components. Later you can use utility called OSXPM (OS X Package Manager) to uninstall OSX GNU software.
DarwinPorts is an environment for porting UNIX software to MacOS X. Like Fink and OSX GNU, DarwinPorts tracks package dependencies and information about installed items. Full-featured package management system is not written yet, however, with DarwinPorts one can create snapshot of compiled binaries in order to generate distributable software package (installed by default into "/opt/local"). DarwinPorts is maintained by the group of volunteers, including some key Apple MacOS X developers. At the time I am writing this (end of November 2002), DarwinPorts has only 140 software packages.
SourceForge.net is the world-largest repository of open source software for all platforms, including MacOS X. Just search by "MacOS" keyword in order to select and browse catalog of available Mac-related projects. By the way, Fink is hosted on SourceForge.net.
PS. On the SourceForge.net you can find really interesting MacOS X software - Gimp-Print (large set of open source printer drivers), ESP GhostScript (open source PostScript&PDF Interpreter/RIP), and XonX (XFree86 package, alternative to the one available from Fink and OSX GNU).
Mac OS X Packages by Marc Liyanage
Marc Liyanage was one of the first who have built and tested PHP, MySQL and PostgreSQL MacOS X native packages. PHP module compiled by Marc replaces Apple's one (which has very limited number of extensions), and thus, may downgraded/replaced during Apple Software Update if its alters Web Sharing component(s).
AaronFaby.com Jaguar Downloads
AaronFaby.com as name suggests maintained by Aaron Faby. He provides various MacOS X Jaguar packages (Apache 2, PHP, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Tomcat, etc.), which install components into Finder-visible directory "Library", not into private UNIX directories invisible in the Finder. Others (like Perl) overwrite corresponding "standard" components of MacOS X.
Blakers' Open Source OSX Server
Blakers' Open Source OSX Server site provides vast selection of open source software for MacOS X (albeit smaller compared to Fink and OSX GNU). It seems Mr Blaker (maintainer of this site) simply enjoys tinkering with this stuff and shares his work with others.
MacOSX.Forked.net is quite similar to Blakers' Open Source OSX Server. Maintainer of this site also promotes his own Web hosting services.
OpenOSX.com offers complete solutions based on open source software (Database/Web CD, Gimp CD, Grass CD). This stuff is not available via free download, but via subscription service instead.
If you use your Mac just to develop (or host) database-driven dynamic web site(s), you can stick with the MacOS X packages from Marc Liyanage or AaronFaby.com. For full-blown open source/GNU system (with XFree86 and/or OpenOffice suite) Fink and OSX GNU are the best choice (these two systems have dependency tracking/resolution mechanism for installing software). Additionally, you can even combine both of them. For example, OpenOffice suite for MacOS X requires XFree86 windowing system to be installed (because of port to Cocoa is in very early development stage). By default, OpenOffice installs OSX GNU package of XFree86. In this case you should instruct Fink to install virtual package of XFree86 (system-xfree86). It will satisfy package dependencies and inform Fink-packaged software to use third-party ("alien") libraries.
The DarwinPorts seem to be more suitable for developers writing (or porting) core MacOS X components. It is very likely that DarwinPorts auto-build system will be part of MacOS X sometime in the future. However, at present time DarwinPorts include very modest (compared to Fink and OSX GNU ) set of packages.
The only really exclusive stuff available from OpenOSX.com is the Grass (however, beta port of Grass already included with Fink). If you do not need it, there are no reason to pay for their subscription services. Of course, you can compile and install all open source software yourself, and in this case Blakers' Open Source OSX Server site may offer you some helpful tips.
Below you can find brief comparison between Fink, OSX GNU and DarwinPorts. Please note that this information is posted at the beginning of December 2002, situation may change in the near future.

Easton Gateway
Columbus, OH
EMH&T has provided comprehensive professional engineering services to the developers of Easton since its inception in the 1990's, and we provided these same services on the newest addition to this massive residential, commercial and retail complex - Easton Gateway. This high-profile addition to Easton is comprised of ultra-high density upscale retail shops and restaurants, and posed significant challenges in terms of meeting local and state-wide stormwater management criteria. In response to these challenges, we developed a green infrastructure solution to address both water quantity and quality requirements which included permeable pavement (brick pavers) with detention storage volume embedded into the sub-base. The permeable pavement encompasses a portion of the parking areas required for the retail complex. The design process for this project included a cost-benefit analysis, which considered that the green infrastructure approach would eliminate the need for an engineered storm sewer system and also facilitates snow melt and de-icing without the repetitive application of costly chemicals and other treatments. The design and construction of the green infrastructure incorporated unique features to allow the site owner and the City the opportunity to monitor the future performance of the stormwater best management practice, consistent with adopted MS4 program requirements. The entire stormwater management facility is now an integrated component of the overall site development improvements and, in fact, serves as a site amenity consistent with the design standards established for the retail complex.

The tool is configured with a text-file of which some sections where explained yesterday. A default configuration file can be found here. This is definitely not complete, but it already produces useful results.
Two features are added to the configuration file. The first feature makes it possible to define a precondition for the language-constructs 'echo', 'die', 'exit' and 'print'. The syntax for this is:
construct: construct-name ( precondition )The second feature is the possibility to define functions with a default level. This can be done in the '[function result]' section. The functions that are specified there are assumed to always return values with the specified safety-type. This is not limited to build-in functions, user-defined functions can also be assigned a default safety-type result.
But which results are produced? The following example shows two things that are supported right now:
< ?php
echo "hello ", $_GET['name']; //is flagged
print $_POST['param']; //is flagged
Keep in mind that the results depend on the configuration. These results will appear when the default configuration is used. A more precise configuration will give more precise results.

In Cody, flags were flown half-staff on federal government property and Cody police officers covered their badges with black cloth for 24 hours in honor of law enforcement who have lost their lives.
"This morning, the President and the Vice President joined tens of thousands of officers and friends of law enforcement at the annual Peace Officers Memorial Service at the United States Capitol".
The last Mansfield police officer to lose his life in the line of duty was Brian D. Evans on December 26, 2007. Seven were killed by gunfire, and one died in an automobile accident, the press release said.
Today is Peace Officers Memorial Day with all USA and state flags flying at half-staff until sunset.
Trump ran for president on a "law and order" platform, promising to "empower our law enforcement officers to do their jobs and keep our streets free of crime and violence". "We understand human nature, human behavior much more than we did 40 years ago", Schmaling said.
Trump noted the ambush killings of police officers a year ago in Dallas and Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and was joined in the Oval Office by family members of slain officers from Phoenix, Arizona, New Jersey and NY.
In America's largest oilfield, whir of activity confounds OPEC
Kuwait's oil minister Essam al-Marzouq said on Tuesday that his country supported the Saudi/Russian initiative. The Wall Street Journal's survey of 13 analysts, however, estimates a decrease of 2. 2 million barrels .
As cities across the country mark Police Week, the Favelas become a reminder of the sacrifices officers and their families make each day.
Since last year's DPS Peace Officer Memorial Service on May 17, 2016, another 18 officers were killed in the line of duty in Texas.
First, in Sacramento at the beginning of the month during a candlelight vigil and memorial ceremony where Chief Bryan Reyes called for stricter laws on repeat criminal offenders.
"They've had it with what's going on, and we're going to get it taken care of".
He says "attacks on our police are a stain on the fabric of our society". But we also honor their sacrifice by ensuring that those who protect and serve have the support and the resources and the training that the men and women of law enforcement deserve.

Elmore Leonard first knocked me out with Killshot, now a movie I am yet to see. Then it was Rum Punch, which Hollywood turned into Jackie Brown — the uber cool Samuel L. Jackson playing Ordell Robbie, saying, "My ass maybe dumb, but I ain't no dumbass!"
After reading Get Shorty and getting floored by it, I am now officially considering myself a big Elmore Leonard fan. Meaning I will suck up anything this dude puts up, including grocery lists.
Which brings to mind a girl I had the pleasure of sharing an FX ride with in 2007. A young pretty thing in tennis shorts and ponytail, she had Pagan Babies on her delectable lap. The only unsightly thing was this gym-chiseled white arm wrapped around her shoulders. This metrosexual type dude I make for a StarStruck reject practically all over her. Some lucky asshole.
My ears highly trained on eavesdropping came to work.
"What's that?" the bozo asked, fingering the dog-eared paperback. "The book I'm currently reading," she said, sing-song voice and all. The guy made a face as if something squirmed in his ass. "I can't stand books," he said. "All those letters." Said it just like that, the guy clueless — or perhaps proud — of what a dumb oversized cockroach he was. Nailing his coffin, he said: "I rather dance."
Something squirmed in my gut.
Some girls don't deserve their guys.

You don't have to attend the big game to know that the Super Bowl can get a little rowdy. In fact, sometimes the wildest and wackiest things can happen right in your own home. This year, in addition to not eating all the mozzarella sticks while I'm alone in the kitchen, I have made a list of the other things I won't be doing on Super Bowl Sunday. Because #goals.
To spare my kids and hubby some game day embarrassment, here are a dozen things I'm not going to do during this year's Super Bowl. (At least I hope I won't.)
1. Weep for 10 minutes after the Budweiser Clydesdale commercial airs.
2. Have two pints of craft beer and then forget that I need oven mitts to remove a bubbling artichoke dip from the oven.
3. Grab the remote control, flip on Downton Abbey during the fourth quarter, and refuse to change the channel.
4. Serve as everyone's bitter waitress, just because I don't "get" football.
More from The Stir: 10 Food & Decor Ideas to Dazzle Your Super Bowl Party Guests (PHOTOS)
5. Pretend a chicken drumstick is a microphone and attempt to belt out the national anthem in front of all my neighbors.
6. Wish everyone would go the hell home by half-time. Did I say that out loud?
7. Gag when that same guest shows up with deviled eggs again.
8. Buy twice as many bags of chips as I really need so I can chow down 'til St. Paddy's day.
9. Look the other way when my kids are double-dipping.
10. Force guests to listen to my theory that Peyton Manning triumphing over Cam Newton is as epic as any Star Wars good-versus-evil battle.
11. Profess my undying love for Chris Martin during Coldplay's half-time show.
12. Eat two dozen jalapeño poppers and feel visibly awful before the game ends.

That's why, in contrast, Sailor Strap offers stylish, simple, colourful cords to carry your camera with. The strap is connected to the camera thanks to top notch stainless steel split rings. The straps' length is adjustable by looping or knotting it. Also, you can wrap it around your wrist and use it as a hand strap.
An atom is the smallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that has the properties of a chemical element. Every, no wait this is not the type of atom we have here at Outdoorphoto, let's try again… Atomos partners with editing software brands like Apple, Adobe and AVID to create add-on camera touchscreens for Canon, Sony, Panasonic, Nikon, Arri, JVC and Red to improve quality, cut production costs and save time in the end-to-end workflow. Atomos has redefined what monitors and recorders can do by merging what was a separate feature set for Recording, Playback, Monitoring and Editing into a single device that makes every camera a professional camera.
The Atomos Ninja Flame SSD 4K ProRes field recorder is built to be used – immediately, effectively and easily with an intuitive operating system that ensures sophisticated shots.
The Atomos Power Station is a portable dual battery dock for your cameras and USBs.
The Atomos Ninja Blade SSD is a portable HDMI field recorder that improves the performance and capability of your camera.

This ergonomic grip features wheels and buttons that, when paired with the accompanying app, gives you greater control over your photography and lets you use your smartphone camera one-handed, even with gloves. It works by emitting high-frequency sounds that are detected by the free Pictar app via the microphone, saving battery over other wireless methods of communication.
Turn your iPhone into a DSLR with the Pictar Plus Camera Grip. This awesome iPhone camera accessory makes your phone feel like a camera and shoots like one too. It lets you take control over your iPhone's camera and unleash its potential.
Even advanced photographers will feel right at home with a smart wheel that lets you choose between 3 advanced modes, namely shutter or ISO priority, or manual.
Lensmate creates products that enhance the functionality of the cameras it is made for and complements the design of the cameras. They offer products like Quick range filter adapters and their custom soft-release buttons and awesome thumb rests.
The sculpted thumb rest relaxes your grip on the camera, reduces camera shake and allows slower shutter speeds. It makes one handed operation easier and prevents unintentional button presses.
The soft-release buttons are shaped to nestle comfortably under the index finger's first joint, enabling a softer shutter release and allowing lower shutter speeds without shake.
With your next visit to Outdoorphoto make sure to ask some of our awesome staff members about these other unique brands that we have in our store available for you. All of these products are brought in by our stock control geniuses, they know just what you like and make it their mission every day to find the coolest products to suit the needs of each and every one of our diverse clients.

With that said, my previous statement was kind of a blanket statement. Some get into drag thinking that they just want to be a Drag Queen, but they actually suffered from gender dysphoria. It doesn't cause it, or contribute to it.
It's almost when someone comes out as bi since they're kinda scared and then end up saying they're gay.
Heres a good story about a drag queen who has fully transitioned into a woman.
" I love my body "
After the years of hormone treatment and thousands on surgery. Money does buy happiness.
damn nigga you really be blunt as shit and dont be sugarcoating shit
- - - Updated - - -
its harsh but u gotta tell those kids theres so such thing as genderfluids and tell em to grow the fuck up. call their parents, its too much to hope but maybe they are reasonable and will knock some sense into their kid
the psychology is simple, they are special snowflakes and u gotta straighten em before they mutilate their genitals and grow up to be outcasts from society. if u dont want them to be hurt u will not encourage this stupidity in them
its like telling ur kid that santa isnt real but only much more srs
liberals and jews will destroy america with their propaganda. if someone said they were genderfluid id laugh in their face
Finalbeta's Final Meltdown
Besides just because they say they are gender fluid doesn't mean they are.
Is there and actual science behind gender fluid?
And I mean science not some bs that asks people questions and concludes from that.
Gender is linked to sex in that males are wired a certain way and females are wired a certain way. Our brains function differently.
I mean this is a much larger problem than you realise it is. The whole concept of how people think women should behave and how people think men should behave. The biggest killer in the uk for young men aged between 18 and 45, with something like a staggering 75% of deaths attributed to it, is suicide. Thats because a lot of young men feel like its unmanly to actually talk about your feelings and see the problems theyre going through as weaknesses rather than things that they can address and talk through in the same way a woman would. We need to stamp out these whole entire concepts of gender and what people think women should behave like and what people think men should behave like.
Whether you like it or not, males and females have brained that are wired and function differently. This is hard science. Women tend to talk about their feelings more because their centers of communication and emotion in their brains are more connected than in males. This idea that gender is a social construct is highly, highly damaging to society. Yeah, men not being able to talk about their issues is a problem but the far bigger issue that causes the problems that need to be talked about in the first place is that we don't treat boys like boys anymore. No consideration is given to the fact that boys are natural risk takers and are naturally aggressive due to hormones and the way their brain is wired. Growing boys NEED competition and a certain level of controlled aggression in order to be healthy. A disproportionate number of boys are diagnosed with learning disabilities for not learning reading and writing as fast as other classmates (mostly girls), but no consideration is given to the fact that the language centers of the brain simply develop faster in girls than in boys. Similarly, more girls tend to do bad in bad not because of a lack of natural ability but because they are taught math in a way that suits the male brain more than the female brain.
We live in an era where you can take your kid to a doctor and the doctor would agree to give him or her puberty blockers to they can 'express their identity.' The majority of these children just need some therapy and they'll be good. For those that have actual issues, then that's when we should bust out the transgender card.

Femibion Pyelonephritis Causes and Reviews
The urinary system is the body's drainage system for removing wastes and extra water. It includes two kidneys, two ureters, a bladder, and a urethra. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the second most common type of infection in the body.
You may have a UTI if you notice
- Pain or burning when you urinate
- Fever, tiredness, or shakiness
- An urge to urinate often
- Pressure in your lower belly
- Urine that smells bad or looks cloudy or reddish
- Pain in your back or side below the ribs
People of any age or sex can get UTIs. But about four times as many women get UTIs as men. You're also at higher risk if you have diabetes, need a tube to drain your bladder, or have a spinal cord injury.
If you think you have a UTI it is important to see your doctor. Your doctor can tell if you have a UTI with a urine test. Treatment is with antibiotics.

At 34, I was diagnosed of "TB" and I was prescribed to take Rifinah 300 / 150 mg. for 6 months starting March until September 2009. After my Rifinah medication, I had an x-ray test and the result is ok. I've informed my Pulmonary Doctor that I have plan to have a baby, he told me that it's better to cure my "TB" so, there will be no problem when i get pregnant. November 3, 2009 I started taking FEMIBION as prescribed by my Gynecologist because I've been trying to get pregnant for almost a year for a second baby. My 1st child is already 4 1/2 yrs. old My Gynecologist is aware that I took a medication of Rifinah for 6 months.

I asked my Gynecologist, what was the cause why did i have an Ectopic Pregnancy? I dont smoke or even drink alcohols? I never use any contraceptives in my life. I dont have any problem during my first pregnancy and I had a normal delivery. My Gynecologist cant find the reasons why I had an Ectopic Pregnancy? because I had a regular check-up with him to be sure that everything will be ok. I hope someone can help me what might be the cause of having an Ectopic Pregnancy? was it my Rifinah medications? Please help... Thank you.

Superintendent, Joe Escoto, announced today, that the dog ban that has been in effect since December 9 has been lifted. However, visitors choosing to bring their dogs to the National Seashore may still be placing their dogs at risk for severe illness and potentially death.
The park has limited information regarding the cause of the dog and coyote deaths that have occurred in the park in the last few months. The information that is available points to a probable connection between the consumption of marine organisms by canines with the severe illness and death that has occurred in several instances.
The park suggests that if you do decide to bring your dog to the park, that you take precautions. Keep your dog on a leash (not to exceed six feet) and do not let your pet consume any dead fish or marine life that remains on the beach. If your dog does becomes ill after visiting the park please alert park authorities.

F-5XZ RuggedWear™ Shoulder/Belt Bag
Like your favorite pair of jeans, Domke bags get better with age and with the new Domke RuggedWear™ collection you don't have to wait. The fabric produces a unique distressed and weathered look right from the start.
The RuggedWear classic bags feature high-quality, weather-tough, durable cotton canvas that is treated with special non-solvent, environmentally friendly waxes to afford the fabric a lifelong resistance to inclement weather. The special formula allows the fabric to breathe while the waxes produce a unique, timeless, weathered, distressed patina finish. By using the included refinishing wax, bags can be restored to its original finish quickly and easily.
The new Domke F-5XZ is designed with 2 dividers that bend to allow the user a number of configurations.
Ideal for: 1 SLR Camera with lens plus 2 additional lenses and accessories.
Note: DO NOT MACHINE WASH your RuggedWear Bag! A periodic cleaning with a hose, damp cloth or soft scrub brush for heavy dirt is all that is needed. Your shower works equally as well. Sometimes a mild bar or flake soap (not detergent) or even Saddle soap will remove stubborn stains. Bare areas can be refinished with our RuggedWear Wax refinishing ointment and left to absorb for a day or so (a hair dryer will speed the process) which will restore the wax finish.

ButterflyCannon has gotten it right on many levels – talent, focus, process, partnership and passion. Many agencies are generalists, say they can do everything but don't excel in anything and have a hard time keeping specialist talent – when that talent leaves, so does the agency's capability. On the contrary, ButterflyCannon know who they are, what they love to do and are good at, and therefore attract clients seeking specialist capability and in turn keep creatives whose passion is for designing in their area of focus. As specialists in mass luxury packaging they are a match for Diageo's Reserve brands and their close partnership has delivered designs that win the hearts of the masses.

text: Wimbledon How Well Do You Know British Tennis Star Johanna Konta? She's beaten the second seed Romanian player Simona Halep in a rather thrilling match to become the first British woman to reach Wimbledon's semi-finals since 1978, but how much do you know about Johanna Konta? Ahead of her match against Venus Williams, Vogue puts together the essential facts and figures about the breakout star of this year's tournament. By Elizabeth White 13 Jul 2017 The Wimbledon 2017 Stars To Know The Wimbledon 2017 Stars To Know Wimbledon 28 Jun 2017 arrowup arrowdown gallery-expand gallery-expand gallery-expand gallery-expand gallery-expand gallery-expand The Basics The British tennis star is 26-years-old, and rose from a world ranking of 146 in 2015 to number six in 2017 and is seeded as number seven at Wimbledon. Her biggest Grand Slam success to date is getting through to the semi-finals of the 2016 Australian Open. She is backed by the greats, including Virgina Wade, the last British Ladies Champion from 1977, who believes Konta could be the next British woman to hold aloft the Venus Rosewater Trophy. She's Made History Many Times Over Earlier this week, Konta was the first woman since Jo Durie in 1984 to reach the quarter-finals of Wimbledon. On Tuesday she became the first British woman to reach the Ladies' semi-finals at the British tournament since Virginia Wade in 1978. In 2016 Konta's win against Caroline Wozniacki at the Miami Open Final became the most prestigious tournament to have been won by a female Briton since 1977. Family Life Johanna Konta was born in Sydney, Australia on May 17 1991 and officially became a British citizen in May 2012. The daughter of Hungarian emigres (her parents are a hotelier and dentist by trade), Konta's sporting pedigree comes from her grandfather who had two international caps playing football for Hungary in the Fifties. Konta's family relocated to Eastbourne in East Sussex when she was 14-years-old, and she continued her training in nearby academies before moving her main training base to Gijon in Northern Spain. A true family girl, portions of her winnings are earmarked to repay her parents for that early investment in her future. Always The Performer If she wasn't playing tennis (and if she had a musical voice) Konta would love to have pursued a career in singing. She loves to be on stage, but luckily for us, her tennis matches on centre court can be her performance piece. Her Secret Talent In her down-time, Konta likes to bake. She is known for making cakes to give to her coaching team and, as she describes on Twitter, her muffins are "the best on tour". Her most successful bake to date? White chocolate and raspberry muffins. Total Trivia She speaks both English and Hungarian fluently and credits her former mental coach Juan Coto with giving her the positive mind-set to withstand the high pressure of matches. Konta's older sister lives in Australia and is married to footballer Shane Mumford.

Justine Greening (Secretary of State for Education) has written to the School Teachers' Review Body (STRB) asking for their recommendations on adjustments to salary and allowances for teachers' pay 2017/18.
Given the increasing pressures that many schools are currently facing in terms of budgets and recruitment it is vital that the STRB are well informed about the implications for individual schools of any recommendations that they may make.
STRB: Have Your Say!
Your school should by now have received a communication from the National Employers Organisation for School Teachers (NEOST) asking for objective and up to date evidence about the workforce, comparative levels of pay, the implementation of recent reforms and the current financial position. This is your opportunity to let the STRB know exactly how teachers' pay impacts upon your school. It is not just about the budgetary implications. We know from our frequent discussions with school leaders that recruitment remains a major concern as does the need to retain experienced teachers.
Have the flexibilities introduced in the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document in recent years enabled you to resolve some of these difficulties or has the autonomy that schools have been given simply introduced additional complexities? Does your Pay Policy reflect the school's needs in terms of workforce ability and pay? What are the implications for the future, given that the Treasury confirmation that public sector pay awards will still only be funded to an average of 1% per year up to 2020. It needs to be remembered that the STRB in their 26th Report state that recruitment, retention and pay was a huge issue for the sector and needed to be addressed by the DfE, "If current recruitment and retention trends continue, we expect an uplift to the pay framework significantly higher than 1% will be required in the course of this Parliament to ensure an adequate supply of good teachers for schools in England and Wales". Ultimately the only change to the 2016 STPCD was the 1% uplift to minima and maxima amounts of pay ranges as other pay increases were to be determined at a local level within schools' own pay policy provisions. Do you feel that this was the correct approach? In our experience, pay policy flexibilities have yet to be fully embraced at an individual school level.
We often hear headteachers and principals say that nobody has asked them for their opinion. This is your chance to have your voice heard by responding to NEOST. Only by school leaders providing real-life data on the impact of pay implications on the sector can NEOST put forward detailed and robust evidence to the STRB to enable them to make considered recommendations.
If you have not yet responded to NEOST we urge you to do so before the deadline of Friday 18th November 2016. The questions are attached and your response should be submitted to email@example.com
For more information about the topics highlighted above, or to ensure that your pay policies are up to date, contact Jill Neal on 0844 967 1112.

Claire Colling
The 'flexibilities' introduced by removing the teachers incremental pay scale I feel are another example of the contempt this government shows for teachers. It gives those leaders who are unscrupulous, licence to withhold pay for spurious reasons, often citing budgetary concerns when often SLT are on grossly inflated salaries (particularly in academies.) Teachers also now have no pay portability and women teachers returning to teaching after a career break very often do not resume the pay scale that they were originally on. In my friend's school many teachers have left to do supply and 3 younger teachers have said they do not expect to be teaching there in 3 years time due to the fact that their graduate peers are earning far more and are not working every night after leaving school at 6 and then weekends as well. Please look at the NASUWT evidence which states that 6 out of 10 teachers have not received the 1% pay award. This is truly shocking and sends the message that teachers are not valued; this will not ease the recruitment and retention crisis, it will exacerbate it. In my opinion, the pay award should be considerably more than 1%

Enrique Valero, the general manager of Abadia Retuerta, who also who sits on the executive committee of the the single vineyard classification Grandes Pagos de España, said the country was facing a big debate over its future direction.
"There will be a debate with Rioja about which is the right model, and the best for Spain," he told db. "The DO system has done very well for Rioja and sherry, but now we need to recover the premium and super-premium end, and it will be very interesting to see what will happen."
"There is the potential for Spain if it can get the wine premium segment. We work hard at the premium end to get the personality and quality of the wine, and we need to keep going in that direction."
He argued that there was "too much bulk" wine being produced in Spain and this wasn't helping the premium strategy or the perception of Spanish wine in the eyes of the consumer.
"We need to change consumption, but it starts with the buyer, and with controlling bulk and with controlling the image," he said. "Improved communication is key."
Valero has previously argued the Vino de Pago single vineyard classification was an important tool to show what Spain could do at the top end, and provided its members with the opportunity to set themselves apart from the crowd, and his comments came ahead of the first Grandes Pagos de España tasting in the UK, being held in London today.
The organisation was founded in 2003 and now represents 29 wineries of 'particular character and quality', which adhere to strict membership rules, whereby the producers must own their own vineyards, which should be located close to the winery to demonstrate a meaningful link with the terroir. As well as boosting international sales and raising the profile of premium Spanish wines, the organisation has a technical objective to help winemakers share innovation and skills to better their understand for terroir.
But Valero argued that the organisation had only now reached the necessary critical mass to extend its reach and, having started its communications 18 months ago, was starting to gain traction both inside and outside Spain.
"We have the key things to build confidence and we are starting to communication the working and the quality properly," he said. "We need two or three years to transmit the concept, history and personality of our wines. It will happen step-by-step," he told db.
Key markets include the USA, Switzerland, Norway, Germany and Mexico – and the UK is also in its list. Following its first trade tasting this week, it is planning to bring its sommelier programme, which was run in the USA this year, to the UK next year.
Building UK sales
Valero's own Bodega, Abadia Retuerta, which it situation just outside the borders of the DO Ribera del Duero (although many of its vineyards lie within the border) launched in the UK with Enotria in March last year with a relatively small UK allocation and said it was beginning to gain both off-trade and on-trade distribution.
"We are confident with the UK but we do need to reposition the brand, having previously been successful in the UK with our cheaper proposition, Rivola. Since then we have repositioned for the premium end. It has involved a lot of changes but we are very confident and not obsessed with growing fast – we are selling everything we produce, so happy to consolidate that," he said.
Around 40% of the company's sales come from its international markets including Switzerland, the USA, Germany, Mexico and now the UK, with 20% from direct sales and wine tourism, based out of its Michelin-starred hotel on the estate, a former 12th century monastery, Le Domaine and wine club in Madrid. This segment of the market has grown in the last six months, Valero said.
The winery is planning to release a new super premium range onto the market next year.

Move over, Hotel Allison. As the dust from Northwestern's summer construction settles, word is spreading about a freshly remodeled and refurnished dorm that's fast rising up the residential hall royalty ranks: Chapin Hall.
"What's that?'" I hear you ask. Chapin has been around since 1901 and has been the Humanities Residential College since 1979. It's also known for having the biggest rooms on campus, measuring 18.5 feet by 13.2 feet, and the tight-knit community of students that call themselves Chapinos. But because of its location - tucked away in the southwest corner of the school and teetering at the edge of University Place (the appendix of Willard, you might say) – and its size (just 72 residents), it has never gained a reputation on par with bigger residential colleges like Willard or Slivka or big halls like Elder Residential Community or Allison Hall.
"When I was picking out dorms this year, the upperclassmen I talked to didn't even know what Chapin was," said Lucinda Allen, a Communication freshman living in Chapin this year.
The antiquity of Chapin's interiors didn't help boost its image either. "When I came in last year, the carpet smelled horrible, the furniture was pretty worn and the mirrors were scratched. There was paint peeling and the lounge was dirty - all the usual signs of wear and tear," said Weinberg sophomore and returning resident Nina Marshall.
But Chapin's low key reputation is fast becoming a thing of the past, as its dramatic facelift - which includes a new entrance and porch, new furniture and lighting throughout the whole building and repainted walls – has surprised many and has become a talking point on campus.
"My friends outside of Chapin have been really surprised by the dorm and all the new stuff we've gotten all of a sudden and are wishing they're living here too. It really is a drastic improvement," said Erik Zorn, president of Chapin's executive board. "I'm surprised and happy, and the freshmen probably are too. Chapin was in desperate need for renovations."
The lack of publicity about Chapin's impending renovations contributed to the surprise factor. "The news that the fraternity houses were moving out of Peanut Row made a bigger splash among the students," said Ian Coley, Residential College Board vice president of public relations. "Mostly only those in RCB and residential colleges knew about the renovations."
Too tired to hike down Sheridan to check out the dorm's new features? Here's a look at the brand new perks Chapin's 50 freshmen (which includes myself, by the way - drop by and say hi!) and 22 returning upperclassmen are enjoying.
1. First floor kitchen
The facelift added a brand new kitchen on the first floor in what was the computer room, in addition to the existing, smaller one on the second floor - previously the only one in the building. "The new kitchen is great because it's now much easier for us to fix dinner for some of Chapin's traditional social events such as our monthly dinner program for fellows and students," said Professor Garth Fowler, Chapin's faculty master.
The computers still sit in the kitchen, though, which is a little strange.
2. Newly expanded war room
Over the summer, the conference and meeting room, affectionately nicknamed the "war room," was expanded, allowing space for a long dark wood table and seats – perfect for late night studying or simply for socializing. "It's a great, professional looking set up for the executive board to hold meetings. It also serves as a huge common space for the residents to hang out," said Lillian Tung, Chapin's community assistant.
That being said, the change came at a price. Chapin's library – which held its books, archives and trophies – once adjacent to the war room, was axed to make space for the expansion.
3. New lounge furniture
Goodbye, dull, dusty green couches and hello, modern looking, sleek armchairs that – wait for it – SPIN! Freshman Alison Abrams praised the lounge as having a sixties mod feel to it. "I feel like someone actually thought about how all the aspects of the room would come together for the design aesthetic, rather than just putting a collection of furniture together."
"I was thrilled that they kept the beautiful ceilings, which have always been loved by the residents," said Weinberg senior Laura Shultz, a former Chapin president.
A caveat here: Chapin's hardware factor isn't the main draw for the reasons its residents chose it. "The renovations probably helped bring some freshmen in, but the upperclassmen probably returned because of Chapin's close community," Zorn said. "For me, I returned because I found many of my very close friends in Chapin, and I couldn't think of anywhere else I'd rather live."
"I knew about the renovations when I was picking my housing choices over this summer, but it was more of a bonus to everything else I heard about Chapin that made me decide that yes, I was definitely going to live there," Allen said.
"I loved Chapin even before the renovations, because there was always something going on and people were so sociable and friendly. The renovation was an extra perk, but it wasn't the main reason why I chose to stay here again," returning SESP sophomore Marcel Byrd said.
Despite its spanking new look, living in Chapin does still have some drawbacks. "It can be quite a pain to travel to Tech for a class at 8 a.m. since it's so far from everything else on campus. On the other hand, it is right in downtown Evanston," Zorn said. "I like the size of the dorm because it means everyone knows each other, but it might be a bit limiting for some."
Those who are already eyeing new housing options may take heart in the fact that Chapin is slated to see yet more transformations next summer, which include a new pantry on the third floor and male and female bathrooms on each floor – meaning that Chapin will have co-ed floors next year. The Chapin of next fall may be a very different one.

Army Research Laboratory Technical Strategy Executive summary
Download - (PDF 50 MB)
To meet the challenges of future conflict, the U.S. Army must remain agile, adaptive, and innovative to ensure mission readiness in the face of increasing complexity in an ever-uncertain world. Since the future is impossible to predict, the U.S. must be prepared to deter or defeat a variety of adversarial threats across all domains of battle -- air, land, space, cyberspace, and maritime, within a congested electromagnetic spectrum. There is a high likelihood that all domains will be contested; U.S. forces can no longer assume superiority in any one domain.1,2 To maintain overmatch in a multi-domain conflict, against a diverse set of threats ranging from capable non-state actors to peer threats, the U.S. Army is considering employing a range of breakthrough technologies. As the Army's corporate research lab, ARL is conducting relevant, transformative research that is rooted in the tenets of discovery, innovation, and transition to deliver science and technology (S&T) options for multi-domain battle concepts.

A bit more about ambiance than fist pumping, Tao nightclub NYC is for our late twenties/early thirties crowd; just ask Kim Kardashian who celebrated her 30th birthday celebration here. Providing a chic vibe to the Meatpacking district, Tao nightclub NYC events are must attends in our book. Attached to a multi-level subterranean fine dining Asian restaurant, both Tao Uptown and Tao Downtown reviews always come in high!
With most people not knowing there is a nightclub attached to the famed Tao Downtown, Tao nightclub NYC is located one in the corner of the HUGE Tao complex and almost feels like a speak-easy. With the entire design of the space is meant to make you feel as if it has been there for decades and you've recently stumbled upon all these artifacts, both Tao Downtown and Tao Uptown are both two of the top lounges in NYC.
If you decide to start your night at the restaurant, getting into the club is a synch…if you are on the list. If you didn't grab some grub, there is a separate entrance around the corner from the main entrance of the restaurant which is also table service and guest list only. We urge all our customers to understand: In Manhattan, space is limited. Venues aren't that big and Tao nightclub NYC is no exception. While it's a great one-stop date shop, it's also consistently one of the hottest clubs in NYC and getting in can be tough. Tao Downtown dress code is casual cocktail attire. Unlike many of the other best nightclubs in NYC, Tao Downtown dress code is not lenient. After all, they are connected to one of the fancier Asian restaurants in Manhattan.
As always, if you need the bottle service assistance at Tao Downtown or Tao Uptown, just let us know!

Most of the time I am cooking two meals. And no I am not bothered by this at all. I cook a lot of rice, beans, veggies, homemade soups, veggies, fish and veggies 😉 for my hubby and me for dinner. My kids are not into these foods so much. I am not a "food pusher". I don't make my kids eat a plateful of something that makes them gag. I don't want them to dread dinner time, I want them to look forward to it!
We have a "one bite rule" for new foods. We all must try new things, at least one bite. Sometimes I win and they love it, sometimes they dry heave. Either way, I always make sure that they know that I am happy they tried a new food and if they aren't impressed with my culinary efforts, I assure them that I will cook the same food in a different way the next time that they try it.
And then they get to happily eat the food that makes their mouths and tummies happy.
I have been compiling a "go to" list of "kid-friendly-and-approved" (emphasis on the "and-approved", as I have realized that just because a recipe claims to be kid-friendly, does NOT mean that my kids will eat it…).
On the top of the list is this recipe for two reasons. 1) My kids LOVE them, and 2) They are easy to make up in large batches and freeze ahead of time.
These nuggets are also pink slime free 😉
16 oz (2 large) skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into even bit sized pieces
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp olive oil
6 tbsp whole wheat Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
2 tbsp panko
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
olive oil spray
Preheat oven to 425°. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray.
Put the olive oil in one bowl and the breadcrumbs, panko and parmesan cheese in another.
Season chicken with salt and pepper, then put in the bowl with the olive oil and mix well so the olive oil evenly coats all of the chicken.
Put a few chunks of chicken at a time into the breadcrumb mixture to coat, then on the baking sheet. Lightly spray the top with olive oil spray then bake 8 – 10 minutes. Turn over then cook another 4 – 5 minutes or until cooked though.

For so many years we've been told to keep to a low cholesterol diet and that cholesterol clogs our arteries and causes strokes and heart attacks.
Little by little this advice is being rolled back; first of all eggs aren't bad for us, then animal fat isn't the cause of strokes (that is sugar).
It's very confusing. Do you remember the advice that if your grandmother wouldn't recognise it, don't eat it? I think there may be something in that. Here is another interesting article from What Doctor's Don't Tell You about cholesterol and dementia.
