The 1180 gt MV Port Mechins dredge (pictured right), operated by Dragage Verrault of Quebec, dredging the St Lawrence under contract to the federal government for the last 30 years, has had its seaworthiness questioned by Transport Canada (TC). According to a recent article appearing on the Seafarer's International Union (SIU) Canadian newsletter, TC refusal to extend the Seaworthiness certificate to the aging vessel, built in 1949 (yes, 1949), has led to a protest being filed by the SIU.
The government has chosen to award the dredging contract for a portion of the St Lawrence river in Quebec, to a competing firm, McNally Construction, who, apparently, intends to import and use the Danish registered suction hopper dredge, MV Freja R, built in 1982 (pictured bottom). Rightly so, the SIU is questioning the fact that a Danish register vessel, with foreign crew who pay no Canadian taxes, should be operating in Canadian waters, much less working a government funded project.
Dragage Verrault, in cooperation with Group Ocean subsidiary Dragage Saint Maurice, have proposed to use a smaller suction hopper dredge, the MV Atchafalaya (pictured right), instead of the Port Mechins. Atchafalaya is a Chigago based, US flagged, 850 ton suction hopper dredge built in 1980 currently laid up in Nova Scotia. I am not sure of what the crewing arrangements would be, but unless Canadians crew and officers are fully operating the dredge, wouldn't that be just the same condition that they are criticizing.
Regardless of the situation, I take note of a few items of interest in this story.
1 – Glad to see that TC is growing some balls and cracking down on old junk.
2 – Dredging is / has been a ongoing issue in Canada for quite some time. Although it is not my area of expertise, I suspect, like many other maritime sector in Canada, the dredging file at government level is woefully in need of a vision and direction, not to mention funding. With so many rivers in the country, and them being vital to shipping, dredging must be considered important to the national infrastructure.
3 – Especially in the marine business; if you are not continually upgrading, or planning to upgrade your equipment or expertise during the life cycle (realizing that everything has a limited useful lifespan), especially when you have a long term contract, then you should not be surprise if your offerings don't live up to the contractor's changing expectations and needs. During the course of my career, I have observed one constant factor at all levels of shipboard operations; if you are feeling comfortable and don't think you need to improve a situation, you are headed for obsolescence. Read – Canadian companies, modernize your equipment and your skills !
I am sure the local experts in this situation would highlight many other lessons from this story. Judging by the state of the equipment operating in Canadian waters and the bigger maritime industry situation in Canada, we are bound to see allot more of these stories.
You may be aware of another that I have mentioned in the past, the Neptune science project off the coast of BC, engaging non Canadian seafarers and equipment, but working on federally funded programs. I am sure cabotage infringement is even worst in non publicly funded projects, offshore oil, alternative energy and such, which, as a Canadian, seafaring professionals or not, is quite disheartening. It highlights our failing capabilities to feed ourselves – and if you cant feed yourself…
You can read the brief story from the SIU here. The pictures are from various internet sources.

Defending Organic Against the GE Alfalfa Threat
Members of the sustainable food movement are furious and, frankly, we have a right to be. Last month's decision by the USDA to fully deregulate genetically engineered (GE) alfalfa isn't just a minor skirmish in a long and exhausting battle. It threatens the existence of organic farming and organic food, and flies in the face of USDA's mandate from Congress under the Organic Foods Production Act to promote and preserve organic agriculture….
Tensions following USDA's action have run high as members of the organic industry reacted to the news. Now, sustainable agriculture advocates including National Cooperative Grocers Association, Organic Valley, Stonyfield, and organic champion Maria Rodale are calling for organizations to "stand together in opposition to GE alfalfa." As we regroup and redouble our efforts to protect organic agriculture, these unifying messages are more important than ever. The USDA's decision last week was a tremendous setback, but the fight is far from over.
In order to preserve organics, the sustainable food movement must unite. Here's what each of us should do today to take action on this issue:
1. Let the White House know that organic food has a right to exist and thrive, and that you do not support the deregulation of GE alfalfa or any crop, by signing this petition.
2. Support organizations like the Center for Food Safety (CFS) as they raise funds for legal action against the USDA's deregulation of GE alfalfa. CFS and others have legal grounds to contest the USDA's Environmental Impact Statement assessment as being incomplete. While Monsanto has billions in lobbying funds, the sustainable food movement has legal precedent on its side. Let's support groups who aim to take the USDA to court. You can also sign up to receive CFS action alerts here.
3. Continue to support the farms and processors that bring us organics. Although growing, organic is still a small part of the agricultural industry. By increasing our market power, we can have a greater impact in Washington and throughout the nation. Let's vote with our dollars.
4. Continue to demand that the USDA and Congress protect farmers and consumers
from the risks of GE crops, products, and ingredients. Farmers have the right to use organic farming methods and should be protected from losses due to GE contamination. GE-free seed programs must be developed. Long-term research on the implications of GE crops must be conducted. Consumers have a right to know what's in their food and to make informed decisions about what they choose to eat. These fundamental principles are part of a seven-point plan National Organic Coalition created to provide clarity and focus for the organic movement on this issue.
By uniting around common goals, the sustainable food movement has established an organic standard with high integrity; one that includes certification, accreditation, and consumer labeling. We must continue fighting for organic protections. We must demand that our government recognize organic's right to exist and thrive.

A Philadelphia jury is deliberating a high-profile case filed against Johnson & Johnson on behalf of a girl who suffered from the severe skin disease Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) after taking Children's Motrin. The lawsuit alleges that the company failed to take adequate steps to warn consumers that their product could cause SJS, a rare and potentially lethal skin reaction. An epidemic of similar cases have prompted a large number of consumers and medical professionals to call for stricter warnings and tighter regulations on Children's Motrin and Tylenol products.
Free Children's Motrin / Tylenol Case Evaluation: If your child or other loved one has suffered from Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) or other serious side effect after taking Children's Motrin or Tylenol, you should contact our law firm immediately. You may be entitled to compensation by filing a lawsuit and we can help.
What's the problem?
May 19, 2011 – In what appears to be the latest high-profile lawsuit filed against Johnson & Johnson over defective drug products, a Philadelphia jury is now considering whether the troubled pharmaceutical giant should have done more to warn the public that Children's Motrin could cause a life-threatening skin disease known as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS).
The claim was filed on behalf of Brianna Maya, a girl who took Children's Motrin in 2000 and subsequently developed SJS, leaving her blind in one eye and with burns over nearly 85% of her body. J&J attorneys have argued that Maya's family failed to prove that Motrin was the cause of her skin reaction, and that the company has complied with all federal regulations concerning the drug since bringing it to the market two decades ago. Closing arguments in the case took place this week, and jury deliberations are currently underway.
Earlier this year, a California appeals court allowed a similar lawsuit to move forward with a claim for punitive damages against J&J after it was alleged that the company's failure to warn the public about potential side effects constituted malice. According to the complaint, J&J misrepresented study results and hid the risks of SJS from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) when it was attempting to gain approval to sell Children's Motrin over-the-counter.
Children's Motrin & Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS)
Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is a life-threatening skin condition in which cell death causes the epidermis to separate from the dermis. Another form of the disease is called Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), which is characterized by the detachment of the top layer of skin from the lower layers of skin all over the body. Although many cases of SJS and TEN are unexplained and have no known cause, the majority of cases can be attributed to reactions to medications. Signs and symptoms of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome may include:
- face or stomach rash
- blisters around the eyes, mouth or vaginal areas
- layers of peeling skin
- burned skin
- severe infection
Preliminary treatment for these conditions involves the recognition and proper diagnosis of the disorder. Since SJS and TEN are often caused by a severe allergic reaction to a drug, it is important to identify drug treatments that have been initiated prior to the onset of the initial symptoms. Medications that are commonly associated with SJS and TEN should be discontinued immediately.
Do I have a Children's Motrin / Tylenol Lawsuit?
The Product Liability & Defective Drug Litigation Group at our law firm is an experienced team of trial lawyers that focus on the representation of plaintiffs in Children's Motrin / Children's Tylenol lawsuits. We are handling individual litigation nationwide and currently accepting new Stevens-Johnson Syndrome cases in all 50 states.

PANAMA CITY-- Stan Jones, the Director of the Panama City Marina, says he's seen a lot of dead fish in St. Andrews Bay lately. That is, everything from small Pinfish to huge Flounder, Red Fish, and Mullet as a result of red tide.
"It can affect marine life," Bekah Nelson, on behalf of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), said. "You know, there's obviously fish kills that can happen from the neurotoxins."
While symptoms for us are usually minor, red tide can still be a nuisance.
"It can cause skin irritation if people are in the water and also it can cause respiratory irritation as well," Nelson explained.
"Once I'm here for a couple of hours, I taste it in my mouth and you definitely feel it's like an irritant in your lungs," Jones described. "I feel like I'm a healthy guy and I can tell there's something going on."
Even the birds aren't happy.
"I've never seen so many seagulls in my life congregated here," Jones said. "You see them swoop down, pick up a fish, fly a little ways, and drop it."
Many people say this fish kill from from red tide is the worst they've seen it away from the Gulf, including the legendary Red Holland, who lives in the area.
"I can't even pronounce the scientific name for it, but it's the first time we've experienced this red tide right there in the downtown city marina," he said.
"Hopefully this towards the end of this bloom, but you know, the bay will recover just like the Gulf of Mexico," Jones said.
The FWC says the toxin may get into the guts of the fish. If you catch fish during red tide, it's okay to eat if the fish is filleted.
If you notice a fish kill in your area, you're asked to contact the FWC Fish Kill hotline: 800-636-0511.

Democracy 2.0
From Slate today,
Though no one in the Obama camp will discuss the specifics, Democratic Web guru Joe Trippi and others believe that the White House Web site will transform into a social network—a kind of Facebook for citizens, a place where people can learn about and work toward passing the president's agenda. Trippi argues that if Obama can use the Web to spark the same well-organized fervor for his policy goals as he did for his campaign, "I think it's going to be one of the most powerful presidencies we've seen since FDR, and maybe even more powerful. Even the best presidents have never had a way to connect directly with millions of Americans—Obama will have that."
Oh, Joe Trippi. It is creepy to talk about how Obama could be the most "powerful" president ever. The problem with Bush was that no one cared to check his power.
Also, directly connecting with millions of Americans is oxymoronic – like being intimate with millions. This sounds more like a mob. A condescending, tiresome mob that talks about "Obama's really important legislative agenda."
Update: So if I signed up for this website, would I have to reject the constant friend requests of Rahm Emanuel?

"The shortage has led the Japanese to do something extremely uncharacteristic of this market: download it. On the PSN and Xbox Live Marketplace, the usual estimate of download sales is around 10% of the retail number, but not with New Leaf. According to several Tweets by Iwata, the game has sold 200,000 digital copies." -RPGLand
Excited for this, I imagine they'll make a great one for Wii U too.
"More than 200,000 downloaded"
One of those is me!! OoO//
Those sales are tremendous. Really liking the Japanese 3ds lineup going though March. The USA lineup isn't quite as good, but it is getting there... slowly.

Product Description
The Tantus Realdoe is remarkably life like from the bulb at the end through the distended veins, this amazing toy gives both vaginal and anal pleasure. Once tucked inside, the bulb hones in your clitoris for twice the fun.
Your own muscles hold this double dong in place, but be careful with those knee tremblers until you've gotten used to it! A removable, vibrating, waterproof bullet fits into the base of the dildo to give it some extra oomph, and is easily removed so you can use it independently. Small and discreet enough to be your constant companion, you effectively get 2 amazing toys for the price of one. Whether you use it as a doubler or as the bullet is immaterial, that orgasm will arrive sooner rather than later.
Dual stimulation is hugely popular right now, and this model delivers every time. Even though it looks like the real thing you can pop this in the drawer when you're finished, it doesn't want to make small talk or take up half the bed. A fine example of how, sometimes, the simplest ideas are the best ideas.

Customer Reviews
Love it!! I love how both partners benefit from the feel of it. My gf also loves it! I would recommend it to anyone!
You know what they say, double the pleasure, double the fun! My girlfriend and I have always wanted a dildo but not just any dildo. We wanted something that offered something more and that's of high quality (so no jelly dildos for us!). This one definitely fits the bill and even with just a few uses, I can already say that it's a winner in our book when it comes to dildos (we got the Slim one).
My girl really loves the slim one and she says that it does fit in rather snug and the clit stimulator also helps. The vibrations aren't all that strong compared to your typical vibrators but it's not really a big deal for us. One downside though is that you have to be really mindful of contracting your muscles to have it stay in place. Not a problem during foreplay or early stages of sex but once you get really into it, you're just not as alert. Good thing my girl has rather strong pelvic muscles so it doesn't really go off of its angle that much. All in all, this is one of the best dildos we've tried and we highly recommend it!

On May 30th the 3rd Division was ordered to report to the French 6th Army which had fallen back to the vicinity of Chateau-Thierry where the German penetration had reached its deepest point in France. There was apprehension of the Germans crossing the Marne, at least in sufficient force to seize a bridge head available for later renewed attacks.
The Division's infantry entrained to go by railroad, a procedure which on account of the demoralization of the French railway service by the German advance was certain to require several days. One unit of the Division, however, was ready to make its own way to the Marne. This was the 7th Machine Gun Battalion which was equipped with its own motor transport.

When I first laid eyes upon this stunning shoot designed by photographer & cinematographer team Josh and Serena, and event designer Elizabeth Gopal of East Made Event Company, I was deeply and utterly moved – not only by its obvious artistry, but by how it profoundly captures the feeling of love between two people. With all of the turmoil currently going on in this world, I felt compelled to share something so undeniably touching and beautiful for you to rest your eyes on. And just for an instant, be swept up in this ethereal moment in time through love, dance, and architecture…
Josh and Serena tell us more about the inspiration behind the shoot, "The concept for this shoot began with one word: movement. We had been longing to collaborate on a piece that was centered around the love of two dancers.
"Josh was inspired by the emotional side of dancing. The beginning of the film centers on the isolation and subtle movement before the two lovers meet. A combination of pronounced cinematic movement and raw "handheld" camera work strives to convey a dance of both elegance and emotion."
Elizabeth Gopal of East Made Event Company gives us details behind the design of the shoot, "When designing this shoot, I used shades of dusty lilac, fig, and muted gold to create a moody spring color palette with a touch of black. At the time, Alexandra Grecco featured a delicate lilac cami and skirt in her newest bridal collection, which fit into our theme perfectly and provided contrast to the flowy, ivory Elizabeth Dye gown. I thought about movement in every detail of the shoot: how the gowns would swoop as our ballerina danced, the cascading table linen from Adorn Company, the diagonal florals and cake pattern, and the hand-marbled paper and sheet music calligraphy envelope liner. My goal was to have every element of the shoot have a purpose and connection to our dancing couple.
"We were so thrilled to work with Kirk and Valerie Henning as the dancers for this collaboration; they are a real life married couple and are also professional ballet dancers with the Richmond Ballet."
Don't miss the gorgeous must-see Pas de Deux video of Kirk and Valerie dancing at the end of the feature.
An expansive 27,000 sq ft Tudor-Revival mansion originally built by Architect John Russell Pope for financier John Kerr Branch in 1919, the Branch Museum of Architecture and Design in Richmond, Virginia is a true work of art. With it's soaring ceilings, marble floors, and large antique windows, it was the perfect setting for this light-filled romantic shoot. Now a national historic landmark, the museum is open for house tours and architectural and design exhibitions like their current one on the landscape architecture legacy of Dan Kiley.
I hope these photos and video will inspire people to attend a ballet, symphony concert, or other live performance and take pleasure in the beauty of music, dance, and architecture. Event Designer, Elizabeth Gopal

Bennekom, The Netherlands – Went to visit my client in Bennekom, the Netherlands, yesterday to check up on their garden. I had designed it last year and now after 1 year of the garden settling in and growing, I went by to check how the garden was doing and whether my client was satisfied…
It looked stunning… and the pond with a gorgeous waterspout called 'Tusk' invited me to walk on through the entrance of the tall Bankirai Pergola, covered with Wisteria 'Sinensis'and various Clematis….
There were however some plants not quite in the right place and the gardner had forgotten to add more Hydrangea 'Annabelle's', in order to divide the terrace from the garden as planned!
As there were lots of weeds covering most of the soil… where in actual fact there should have been plants thriving, I got down on my hands and knees and started to show them how to weed properly! We had great fun and the clients were very happy to potter along and reshuffle some plants… I then made a shopping list for them to go down to the local nursery ….
I am sure they will be having a great gardening weekend, finishing off the last planting and then being able to relax and enjoy.
Apparently there was little colour in spring, so I suggested them to plant bulbs in oktober, november. I will make a list of tulips, bluebells and narcisus etc… for them.
Also managed to get hold of a gardner, who will do the basic weeding and pruning every other week at a good hourly price!
Happy happy clients… I'm happy 2!
Enjoy! and let me know what you think. Or even better if you have any gardening questions or designing issues… do drop me a line and I will answer you to the best of my knowledge!
Sunny greetings, Carolyn

Salads can be used as an appetizer as well as the main course or side serving of a meal. If dressed right, the ingredients of a salad can be a very healthy part of your daily diet while remaining flavorful and appealing. When it is time to choose a salad dressing you should keep nutritional value as well as taste factors in mind.
Method 1 of 3:
Types of Salad Dressings
1Browse through the aisles of a grocery store to see what types of salad dressings are being sold. Here are some common types that you might find and their descriptions.
- Caesar: Contains oil and vinegar with a seasoning of Romano cheese and garlic.
- Cole Slaw: A sweet and creamy salad dressing that can be absorbed easily.
- French: There are 2 types of French dressings, namely separating and non-separating (non-separating is creamy whereas separating is more runny). French dressings use oil and vinegar as their base with the addition of tomato and paprika.
- Italian: a tangy dressing that can contain a vast variety of ingredients including garlic, oregano, Parmesan cheese and red pepper.
- Oil and Vinegar: A basic dressing created using vegetable oil and vinegar.
- Thousand Island: A thick and sweet dressing that usually contains pickle relish and may also contain chili, garlic, egg, tomato, onion and pimiento.
Method 2 of 3:
Health Factors
1The ingredients of a salad dressing determine its nutritional value as well as its fat and sugar content. You should be looking for the following measurements on the side label of the salad dressing container.
- Fat Content: At times the dressing's container may be marked as "fat-free" or "low-fat" at the front. These have very low fat content that can be considered negligible (46-97 KJ per serving) as part of your daily diet, although even fat-free dressings do frequently still contain a very small amount of fat. High-fat dressings contain fat content of 20 percent or higher with some going up to 75 percent. Although these are usually self-prepared dressings at home or restaurants, the salad dressings sold at grocery stores rarely have high fat content.
- Sugar Level: Diabetics need to know the sugar quantity that the dressing contains per serving in order to maintain their blood glucose level. People trying to lose weight should also try to lower their sugar intake since the body can start to convert and store the sugar as fat. As a general preference, the salad dressing should have less than 15 percent sugars if you're trying to lose weight and less than 5 percent sugars if you are diabetic.
- Sodium Quantity: High sodium intake can cause health problems such as high blood pressure, which is why most people want to buy a dressing with low sodium quantity. If you want to keep your sodium intake low, try to use a dressing with less than 1000 mg of sodium per serving.
Method 3 of 3:
Making Your Own Salad Dressing
1Learn how to make your own salad dressings by searching for recipes online or in cookbooks. There are many websites and books that specialize in salads and do-it-yourself salad dressings. Once you learn how to create your own dressings, you can customize them any way you want to match your health and taste preferences.Advertisement

- Although you may choose a salad dressing as your favorite, it is a good idea to try different dressings from time to time. This adds variety to your daily meals and also gives you a good mix of nutrients, since each salad dressing offers its own unique nutritional value benefits.Thanks!

GTF Accomplishments
September-December 2012
November 2010
November 2010
April 2010
March 2009
Ongoing since 2008
2 EV chargers were installed at Staples High School, and 2 at the library. The GTF facilitated the DEEP grants that paid for these installations.
The Town was one of 9 to be written up as a model for US Congress for innovative and effective policies and programs that enhanced their community, both economically and environmentally. Click here for more information.
Partook in Solarize Westport, a program that more than doubled, and almost tripled our residential solar install base in town, at a price that was 30% less than average in the state at that time. With 58 homes having signed up for a total of 382 kW of solar PV during the 4 month program, there will be a reduction of over 6.6 million pounds of C02 over 20 years.
Passed a resolution to have sustainability be considered in all municipal capital projects. "The GTF recommends that the Town of Westport and the Westport School System consider sustainability when making capital improvements for the purpose of meeting the objectives of the Town Plan and making Westport an environmentally responsible leader among local municipalities, and specifically recommends investigating implementation of solar PV at Staples High School and cogeneration at Long Lots Elementary School."
Took part in the Neighbor to Neighbor Energy Challenge/Westport Home Energy Challenge. Over 15% of homes have been weatherized since initiating this project, reducing their annual energy expenditures by on average 8-10% . Westport was first among 14 towns participating in this DOE grant, and had greater participation than the other top 4 towns, combined. Translated to carbon dioxide savings, there will be a reduction of over 44 million pounds of C02 over 20 years.
Initiated a public outreach campaign to sign up homes for clean energy and helped fund a small solar installation at Staples High School.
Helped institute a text amendment to the Town zoning regulations excluding flat mounted solar panels from building height requirements.
Aided in Westport's adoption of a ban on point of sale plastic bags and has lead to the widespread adoption of reusable bags.
Established awards to recognize outstanding leadership from Westport residents, businesses and nonprofits with the WeGreen Westport awards.
Installed the first electric vehicle charger at a train station in Connecticut.
First town winner of the Green Coast awards.
Has taken every opportunity to institute sustainable practices in municipal town buildings at each capital improvement opportunity. Examples include: insulated garage doors for the firehouse; 30% energy reduction in Town Hall after efficiency upgrades including lighting and HVAC, 25% reduction of electricity in upgraded parking lot lighting.

Lucknow, Apr 21 (PTI) Filmmaker Aanand L Rais production venture "Nil Battey Sannata" has been made tax free in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh.
The social drama, starring Swara Bhaskar, Ratna Pathak, Pankaj Tripathi and Ria, will hit theatres tomorrow.
"After watching the poignant story of a mother and her daughter, Delhi and UP state authorities praised the movie for being an entertainer and socially relevant to our time and unanimously decided to make the film tax free so that such heartwarming and inspiring stories can reach to maximum people," the makers said in a statement.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav made the announcement on Twitter.
"Touched by the story of Nil Battey Sannata, which was filmed in Agra. We have made the film tax free in UP," Yadav wrote.
Rai said he is grateful to Delhi and UP government for making Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari-directed "Nil Battey Sannata" tax free.
"Its a heartwarming story that promises to both entertain and educate. Hopefully, such encouraging support will inspire more filmmakers to come up with stories like Nil Battey Sannata," Rai said in a statement.
Swara added, "Im very grateful and excited with this news, that two state governments found out film worthy of being tax free on day one which is very rare adds a lot of credibility to our film." PTI JCH BK

She gets a big roomy box, too, for all that family. They will stay in here together for a few days, and then the In's and Out's will begin again with her. Now the white hen's chicks have it all figured out- I can count on them to get in and out of the coop without assistance- I get a short reprieve before it begins again, this time with SIX chicks.
It's nice they are all the same age, too, since she did it right. I can barely tell the youngest chick, the late hatcher, but there is one a tiny bit smaller.
I've given them a lovely first meal – quinoa with ground sun and flax seeds, finely grated (zested?) carrot and cucumber. It was a big hit with the white hen's chicks, also with chopped apple. I couldn't believe how much of it the four of them would consume in a day. They are only tiny, but they'd polish off a cupful twice a day. Quinoa is fast becoming the number one choice of bird food around here.
It seems to me that once hatched, the chicks spend at least 24 hours under mom, adjusting or something, before they come out and begin to eat or drink. It's not like they just can survive 72 hours on the energy supply from the egg, but that it's natural for them to have a long transition from egg to outer world. Even once they were all hatched, it seemed with both hens that it was two days before the chicks started to come spilling out and express interest in what's beyond mom's feathers.

Fish disease and sickness -
Both wild caught and farm raised fishes carry parasites/bacteria which usually does not cause significant harm in normal water conditions. This is the same as us humans carrying millions of bacteria and dust mites on our hair and skin, without serious effects. However, these 'harmless passengers' can cause serious trouble, when the following or combinations of the following factors occur:
1. Fish is under stress, causing a lowering of immune system.
If left untreated, a single infected fish will pass the infection to
all other tank mates. Over time, your tank becomes a death trap killing
everything in it.
Prevention -
Most of the time, parasites/disease are introduced to the tank by new additions to the tank. The majority of these problem additions will be fish or plants, while the rest will be aquarium decorations which have been in infected water. To be safe, always boil non-living objects which may have been in contact with parasites and diseases before you add them to your aquarium. This is especially true for pieces of rocks or wood which you have picked up from a natural setting. Obviously, we cannot boil fishes before we add them to our aquarium, therefore:
1. Avoid aquiring fish which exhibits the following symptoms :-
* signs of injuries to fins and body. e.g. bleeding, ulcers, skin or
fin tear

Director's Corner
"The arts are the best insurance policy a city can take on itself"
- Woody Dumas, former Mayor of Baton Rouge
Woody has extensive understanding and appreciation for the role arts and cultural services play in a community.
Dear Art League Family,
This month I would like to talk about some of the value-added benefits and impact the Art League brings to you and the communities we serve. The Art League strives to bring exceptional services, programs and cultural experiences to all. Its offerings are many; fine art classes for all ages and abilities, pre-college portfolio prep for high school students, community events and fine art exhibitions, summer art adventure programs for children and teens, art history lectures, special needs programs, live performances and more. All of these programs and events attract over 25,000 plus visitors each year.
The Art League's services, programs and cultural experiences contribute significantly to the economic well-being of Long Island. We have a professional faculty staff of over 70 teaching artists during peak periods. Art teachers tell us that the Art League is their employer of choice. Our programs and events generate a great deal of event-related spending that benefit other businesses, attract business and community leaders, new residents and enhance the quality and beauty of our towns, villages and neighborhoods. The contributions the Art League returns to you can be measured in prosperity, employment and overall quality of life. If you haven't given thought to how art as an industry contributes to the economy, here's some information that may surprise you.
New data released on March 6, 2018 by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) and the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) reported that the arts contributed $763.6 billion to the U.S. Economy, more than agriculture, transportation or warehousing. In the U.S. the arts generate $370 billion in income and employs 4.9 million workers across the country. In New York alone, the industry contributed $114.1billion to the economy or 7.8% share of the total U.S. contribution.
Besides the abundant contribution to the economy, the Art League is a place where people gather, study art for enjoyment or very seriously, develop new friendships, share creativity and inspire each other. When you invest in the Art League by making a donation, taking a class, volunteering, attending an event, visiting the gallery or becoming a sponsor or business partner, you are in turn investing in yourself, your family and the communities where we live, work and play.
Thank you again for your support!
Warmest regards,
Charlee M. Miller
Executive Director

Is It Worth Using Online Homework Assignment Writing Services?
This is an interesting question. There are definitely a lot of sites out there that are offering online homework assignment writing services. This may mean that these sites are really popular. There may be a large need for sites that assist you with your homework. This could be due to the fact that so many people struggle with writing. It is not always easy to articulate your ideas.
Some writes can sit at a desk and write about anything under the sun. They can write about topics that they had no idea existed before someone asked them to write about it. They can easily produce a paper that is not only well-written but also formatted well. When you are writing about an assignment, they can read the text and know exactly what to pull out of it to answer the question. Because they use the language so well, they are really good at pulling important aspects and portions out of a paper.
Well…. Is it worth it?
Let's get right to the point. For most students it is worth it. They are stuck on a homework problem or on writing a paper and without these services, they would not pass. This is usually not the end of the world, but it could feel that way. You not only have to either take the course over or get stuck with that one low grade that drags the rest to the ground. It is certainly hard to recover from a blow like that.
For others it is just not going to offer the kind of assistance that is needed. However, it just might also be the key to learning a deeper meaning on the subject or to saving some time to do something even anything but homework. When you have the mentality that the only way homework works is if the student does it right. Too many students do their homework wrong and then follow those same steps on their exam. You don't always get your results back for your homework back right away so if you did it wrong on the homework, you will also get it wrong on the test.
The bottom line is yes it is worth it. To have the resources that you need right away is very important. It will allow you to better your skills and help you complete the class.

Blog #30 - 15/06/2017
Hello everyone and welcome to the latest iteration of the Demon Debug blog, my name is Rahul and I shall be the author of today's blog. In this blog post we have some good news to share regarding the Demon Debug Alpha, as well as some bad news. The bad news is that unfortunately the Alpha will not be ready for the target release date of 16th June. The good news, however, is that the game is currently at the best it has ever been due to the hard work of the entire team recently.
We are now certain that the Alpha will be coming out sometime in July, but we will not finalise a date yet as we wish to be 100% certain that the date we choose is possible for the entire team. Once a date is finalised, you can expect to hear about it first on our Twitter account.
Over the past two weeks we all at the team have made some great progress on Demon Debug. Let's start off by talking about progress on the art side of the project. Brandon has started work on the backgrounds for World One, and I can assure you that based on the sketches I've seen these backgrounds look amazing! Once we have the full background complete we will share an updated screenshot, but in the meantime, check out this gif of the opening of a level in Demon Debug.
Callum has continued working on the animations for The Programmer, and is nearing completing all the animations for The Programmer. Callum has now completed the idle, walk, run, jump, and attack animations, and all that remain now are the wall climbing animations. We expect all these remaining animations to be done over the coming week, and we'll start sharing more footage from the game once they are complete.
My focus over the past two weeks was regarding working closely with Christopher on the levels and player mechanics in game. By doing this, we both managed to perfect the player mechanics and are now able to finalise all the technical details regarding the player (i.e. his movement speed, how far he jumps, etc.), by doing this we have created a movement experience which is fluid and smooth for the player, and realistic in terms of human movement.
Chris has been working on the levels in Demon Debug, working hard to create levels which are suitable difficulty for World One but at the same time challenging in the way that a game set in Hell should be. Chris has now completed the first six levels in the game, and is currently working on the seventh. We plan to get the first nine levels of World One complete within the coming week, as well as completing the boss level a week after that.
Fraser has continued to work hard on the story elements of the game, and is hoping to complete all the World One story elements very soon. Over the past two weeks Fraser has been working on the character bios for The Programmer and Lily Harper (The Programmer's girlfriend). He has also been working on the opening of the game, and trying to make the opening be more straight to the point, while at the same time informing the player of what is going on without it seeming forced or boring.
Rupert unfortunately experienced some delays regarding working on the main menu track for the game, but now he has the time and is working hard to create an amazing main menu track for Demon Debug. He has already made an amazing sample track that is perfect for the main menu, and is now working on minor modifications to perfect it for the game. Once this is done we might share a sample in an upcoming blog post 😉.
That is all for today's edition of the Demon Debug blog, we all hope you enjoyed reading. If you did, be sure to follow the Demon Debug Twitter account or our other social media accounts for more regular updates on the overall progress of Demon Debug.

Exceptional dentistry, exceptional care.
Dr. Winkelman works extremely hard to provide comprehensive
dental care in as safe an environment as possible. One of the most exciting ways that he does this is by using Digital Radiography
(Computerized X-Rays). Digital Radiography allows us to increase your safety and increase our ability to deliver exceptional
dental care without compromise. Digital Radiography allows us to take and develop an x-ray utilizing a specially designed
computer system called Denoptix. With this digital technology, our patients receive up to 90% less radiation exposure than
traditional x-rays.
The digital radiograph is quickly and efficiently transported
to the chairside computer. Once there, Dr. Winkelman can interpret the x-ray more completely and can, much like a digital
photograph, enlarge the area, change the contrast and much more leading to a more accurate diagnosis. Because the image is
enlarged and displayed on the monitor next to the dental chair, he can review your radiographs and share with you what the
x-rays show. Less exposure to you, less exposure to our staff, and a system that is friendly to the environment. You will
be amazed with the technology. We love it and we know you will too! Call today to schedule an appointment. 240.632.8396

What do you get when you smash together two delicious cheesy dishes? A classic grilled cheese with the comfort of leftover lasagna? You end up with one delicious sandwich, Lasagna Grilled Cheese! It's the ultimate grilled cheese and I'm excited to share it with you guys.
We wanted the flavor of garlic bread to go into this grilled cheese because it just made sense. So the first step is to make a really simple garlic butter to spread on the bread before we cook the sandwiches.
Sprinkle two slices of bread with lots of mozzarella cheese. I know lasagna already has cheese in it, but I don't think there's ever such a thing as too much cheese. Then cut a piece of your leftover lasagna from the night before, and slap it on top of one of the slices.
Sandwich them all together and repeat with the rest of the sandwiches, placing them onto a platter or baking sheet to have them ready to griddle.
Spread both sides of the grilled cheese with a generous amount of the garlic butter we made earlier. I like to spread the top piece, lay it on the skillet face down and then spread the other side.
Cook in a hot skillet (in batches) for a few minutes on each side or until golden brown and crusty, and the cheese has melted.
So next time you can't think of something to do with that leftover lasagna, remember that this grilled cheese exists. Give it a try and enjoy!
- 6 sliced French bread
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter, softened
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- pinch of paprika
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 4 thin slices leftover lasagna
- In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, garlic, and paprika until well mixed together.
- Sprinkle each slice of bread with cheese. Lay down a slice of lasagna onto half of the slices. Sandwich them together. Spread both sides with a generous amount of garlic butter.
- Cook in a hot skillet, in batches, for a few minutes or until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Enjoy!

The Effect of Allowing Pollution Offsets With Imperfect Enforcement
Hilary Sigman, Howard F. Chang
NBER Working Paper No. 16860
Public policies for pollution control, including climate change policies, sometimes allow polluters in one sector subject to an emissions cap to offset excessive emissions in that sector with pollution abatement in another sector. The government may often find it more costly to verify offset claims than to verify compliance with emissions caps. Concerns about such difficulties in enforcement may lead regulators to restrict the use of offsets. In this paper, we demonstrate that allowing offsets may increase pollution abatement and reduce illegal pollution, even if the government has a fixed enforcement budget. We explore the circumstances that may make allowing pollution offsets an attractive option when enforcement is costly.

jm_0010: Port block names in Simulink® models
Strongly recommended
For some items, though you may not be able to define a single approach for internal processes of all organizations, within a given organization, try to follow a single, consistent approach. An organization applying the guidelines must enforce one of the following options:
Names of Inport and Outport blocks must match corresponding signal or bus names.
When any combination of an Inport block, an Outport block, and any other block have the same block name, use a suffix or prefix on the Inport and Outport blocks.
One common suffix / prefix is
_in for
Inport blocks and
_out for Outport blocks.
You may use any suffix or prefix on the ports, however, the prefix that you select must be consistent.
Library blocks and reusable subsystems that encapsulate generic functionality.
When names of Inport and Outport
blocks are hidden, apply a consistent naming practice for the blocks. Suggested
practices include leaving the default names (for example,
giving them the same name as the associated signal, or giving them
a shortened or mangled version of the name of the associated signal.

How to BEHAVE Better at Work #sanctifyMONtoFRI
Years ago when I was in ministry (and thankfully I still am – you'll see why), I was driving on a road in Seattle when for some reason I cannot remember (isn't that often the case in these situations?) I became incensed at another driver and cut loose in my rage; honkin', tailgatin' and just generally hootin' and hollerin'. And then I realized it: a staff member of my team was driving behind me. She beheld the entire incident. I have made many mistakes in ministry. This was certainly one of them. Read the rest of this entry »

Sanctifying Monday to Friday
I grew up in a tight-nit, blue-collar, small church of about 200 where faithful people attended week-in and week-out. Sure there was drama, sure there were problems. But what left an indelible impression on me were the hard-working, honest, faithful people who provided the backbone to the church. These were my heroes, among them my father, who gave significantly to the church, and quietly worked away Monday to Friday, pleased and content with his work. He was not a minister as I am. He owned a telecom business. Read the rest of this entry »
How To Kill Ungratefulness
I'll make a confession. When I was still a child I once visited my cousins in Korea. They lavished on me, their American family, with food, gifts, affection. They shared everything with me. I was so blessed. And so ungrateful. One day someone bought a couple of robot toys for us cousins. They were dispersed among us, but came up one short. The last one was in the hands of my cousin Raymond (not his Korean name FYI) and I promptly snatched it out of his hands, took it to myself, coddled it, and turned my back to him. I remember the bewildered look on his face out the corner of my eye. Read the rest of this entry »

The movies plot is about a female cyborg and officer of the secret service (named Motoko Kusanagi) in a ficticious society and his hunt for a mysterious computer-hacker, called the Puppet Master. This movie has influenced the Genre of SF not only for the world of animé, but also for SF in general. The most popular example for this fact might be the Matrix-Trilogy created by the Wachowski-Brothers. They who distinctly said, that they are followers of Masamune Shirow, and that they took a number of elements out of Ghost in the Shell.
In the year 2029, the world has become interconnected by a vast electronic network that permeates every aspect of life. That same network also becomes a battlefield for Tokyo's Section Nine security force, which has been charged with apprehending the master hacker known only as the Puppet Master. Spearheading the investigation is Major Motoko Kusanagi, who - like many in her department - is a cyborg officer, far more powerful than her human appearance would suggest.
And yet as the Puppet Master, who is even capable of hacking human minds, leaves a trail of victims robbed of their memories, Kusanagi ponders the very nature of her existence: is she purely an artificial construct, or is there more? What, exactly, is the "ghost" - her essence - in her cybernetic "shell"? When Section Six gets involved in the case, she is forced to confront the fact that there is more here than meets the eye, and that the Puppet Master may hold some of the answers she seeks. But little does she know that he has been seeking her as well …
According to this outline, the two music-tracks I composed out of this are dealing with cyborgs and the special question connected to that special lifeform: What makes us be human?
The only thing I can show to the visitiors of my website is the CD-Cover, I intended to put on that release. (Which now is never to come.) Ghost in the Shell is called to be a kind of "magnum opus" in this genre, and from appearance and content it is very closely related to Bladerunner and the Isaac-Asimov-Story I, Robot.

MnO2 is a product of in-situ oxidation of trichloroethylene (TCE) by KMnO4. This species tends to precipitate and hinder the oxidation process thereby reducing the treatment efficiency in more than one way. The main objective of this research was to enhance the mobility of MnO 2 precipitates using sequestration technique. A one dimensional column was designed to study the effect of sodium polyphosphate addition to the reaction solution containing KMnO4. The solution was injected to the silica sand artificially contaminated by WE and the mass removal rates were studied against the removal rates when no polyphosphate was added into the reaction solution. TCE was added to polyphosphate and KMnO4 solution in vial experiments to confirm the stabilization of MnO2 precipitates in the presence of polyphosphate. Reaction solutions contained varying concentrations of KMnO4 (500, 1000 and 2000 mg/L) and varying mass ratios of polyphosphate w.r.t. KMnO4 (1 to 8). Optimum conditions w.r.t KMnO4 and polyphosphate (mass ratio 1:4 at 1000 mg/L of KMnO4) were generated and used in column experiments. It was observed that dissolution rate and consequently overall mass removal rate was enhanced in column experiments when in-situ oxidation took place in the presence of polyphosphate. This was probably because of sequestration of MnO2 by polyphosphate which rendered WE more accessible to treatment. However, there was still some precipitation observed in the column when polyphosphate was added contrary to expectations from vial experiments results. Ionic strength of the solution in which reaction/precipitation/stabilization took place, was studied briefly during the vial experiments and higher ionic strength (>0.05 M) seemed to affect the stabilization adversely. Reaction kinetics experiments were conducted to estimate the effect of addition of polyphosphate on oxidation rate. It was observed that this addition did not substantially affect the kinetic rate of reaction.Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering.
