Puma 2013 Preview @ Bright Tradeshow
January 27th, 2013 by Aaron Hope | 1 comment
Puma shows off a range of classic styles in new colorways at their Bright Tradeshow installation. A set of Puma Steppers offer a suede welcome in four vibrant shades, and from there we get just the slightest glimpse of the Easy Rider (under '1982′) and one marked for '84 that's hard to make out but could possibly represent the long-awaited return of the Pacific. Elsewhere, there's no need to speculate that new Trinomic Trail and Disc Lite colorups will satisfy classic running fans, while the Slipstream brings a bit of old school basketball hightop goodness to round out the set. Stick with Sneaker News for updates and let us know which is the best design from this collection.

The engineering profession is regulated in Canada. It is illegal to practise as an engineer or to use the title "engineer" without being licensed as a professional engineer with a provincial or territorial association. However, individuals can do engineering work under the direct supervision of licensed professional engineers.
Provincial and territorial engineering regulatory bodies are responsible for setting the standards for entry into the profession and for issuing licences to those who meet established standards of qualifications and practice. Therefore, once you know where you will settle and work in Canada, you should contact the appropriate regulatory body for details on licensure procedures (See list below).
Engineers Canada established the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB) in 1965 to accredit undergraduate engineering programs at Canadian institutions which provide aspiring engineers with the academic requirements necessary for registration as a professional engineer in Canada. The list of accredited academic programs can be consulted on its web site, as well as the Engineers Canada Examination Syllabus.
While not part of the registration process to become a licensed professional engineer in Canada, the Roadmap includes the on-line Academic Information Tool, which provides valuable information on how an undergraduate education in engineering obtained outside Canada compares to a Canadian undergraduate education in engineering.
This is important, as the definition of engineering varies from one country to the next. Work and training that in some countries are called engineering and are linked to the job title of engineer may fall into a different job category in Canada. The Academic Information Tool assists applicants in making an informed choice about immigrating to Canada.
Please note that the Academic Information Tool provides general information on how international academic credentials compare to those issued in Canada. It is not part of the formal immigration selection process, nor is it part of the engineering licensure process.
For more information, contact:
For immigration to Quebec, you should contact the Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec (OIQ) directly:
You should note that if you are already licensed to practise as an engineer, and later wish to work in a non-regulated occupation, employers may request that you provide them with a formal assessment of your academic credentials.
If that is the case, or if you wish to have your credentials assessed for a purpose other than practising a regulated occupation in Canada, you may consult our Fact Sheet No. 2, "Assessment and recognition of credentials for the purpose of employment in Canada" and contact an academic credential evaluation service. Although evaluation services offer expert advice on how qualifications obtained abroad compare with academic credentials obtained in Canada, their evaluations are advisory only and do not guarantee recognition of your qualifications for employment or certification purposes in Canada. Please note that evaluation services charge a fee for their assessments.
The Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) is an immigration program administered by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), the department responsible for immigration to Canada.
CIC has published a list of priority occupations under the FSWP. To apply for immigration to Canada under this program, one of the requirements* is to obtain an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) for immigration purposes from a CIC-designated organization. We invite you to communicate directly with one of the designated organizations to begin this process from outside Canada.
*It is important to note that this requirement is for immigration purposes only. It is separate from the process to obtain a license to practice from the relevant regulatory body listed below. Obtaining a license to practice is not required to apply for immigration.
The following occupational profiles for specific engineering disciplines may also be of interest:

Federal Court of Appeal
The Federal Court of Appeal sits at the apex of Canada's federal judiciary, subject only to review by the Supreme Court of Canada. The federal judiciary is one of three branches of Canada's federal government, the other two branches being the federal Parliament and the federal executive. In this capacity, the federal judiciary plays an essential role in Canada's governance, including, where appropriate, protecting and vindicating the rights of individuals.
Thousands of federal decision-makers operating under hundreds of legislative regimes in all sorts of federal areas of jurisdiction are subject to the Federal Court of Appeal by way of applications for judicial review, direct appeals and appeals from applications for judicial review decided by the Federal Court. Matters of constitutional law and administrative law – known as public law – commonly arise in these cases.
Alongside this public law jurisdiction – the country's largest – the Federal Court of Appeal also hears hundreds of appeals each year from the Federal Court and the Tax Court of Canada. These appeals concern a wide variety of legal subject-matters central to Canadians' safety, prosperity, and well-being, including tax, patents, trade-marks, copyrights, immigration, national security, maritime and social benefits matters.
The Court has a chief justice and ten other full‑time judges, plus supernumerary judges from time to time. The Court hears cases in both English and French in panels of three. The judges hail from all across Canada, bringing with them diverse perspectives and backgrounds. They travel to hear cases in 18 major centres spread across 7652 km, from Vancouver, B.C. in the west and St. John's, NL in the east and, if requested, in centres in the far north.
By virtue of section 5.4 of the Federal Courts Act, a complement of judges on the Court must be appointed from the Quebec Court of Appeal or the Quebec Superior Court or must have been a member of the Quebec Bar for a minimum of ten years. This recognizes Canada's bijural reality and the need for the Federal Court of Appeal to accommodate it. Many aspects of Quebec law, including the Civil Code of Québec, can shape the interpretation and application of federal laws and the legal rules in all areas of the Court's jurisdiction. The Court must ensure that its pronouncements – binding across Canada – work fairly, effectively, and practically, regardless of whether the backdrop is a common law system or a civil law system.
As a practical matter, for approximately 95% of the litigants coming before it, the Federal Court of Appeal is the highest Court in the land – the Supreme Court of Canada considers, with leave, only a small fraction of the cases decided by the Court.
I hope that your visit to the website of the Federal Court of Appeal is rewarding!

Jakub Novak of the BMC Development Team grabbed the overall lead Thursday at the Bend Memorial Clinic Cascade Cycling Classic on the strength of fourth place in the individual time trial.
Eisenhart Is Best Young Rider
Novak leads time trial stage winner Serghei Tvetcov (Jelly Belly Cycling presented by Kenda) by 18 seconds with three stages to go, while teammate TJ Eisenhart is fifth and tops the best young rider classification. "We only have six riders at this race but this is a good experience for the young guys to have the leader's jersey and defend it," BMC Development Team General Manager Rik Verbrugghe said. "Friday will be the critical stage because it finishes at the top of a climb. I expect it will be mostly the same riders as we had at the finish on Wednesday. Jakub was pretty good there and so was TJ." In that 118-kilometer road race, Novak and Eisenhart finished 10th and 17th, respectively, to move within 17 seconds of the lead. Eisenhart was 11th in the time trial, 49 seconds behind Tvetcov.
Mountain-Top Finish Friday
Novak was 10 seconds off the winning time in Tuesday night's 4.3-km prologue, setting the stage for him to become the second BMC Development Team rider to lead a race in the team's inaugural season. In March, Silvan Dillier won the overall and best young rider titles at the Tour de Normadie in France. Novak said he had thoughts about wearing the yellow jersey before mounting his BMC timemachine TM01 for Thursday morning's 25.5-km race against the clock. "I was thinking I could maybe take the lead because the time trial is my specialty and I was feeling good," he said. "Now we have the lead, so we'll do everything to fight for the jersey." Eisenhart said hopes to duplicate the climbing success he enjoyed on Stage 1 during Friday's 148-km race to the Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort. "I'm aiming to be Jakub's second guy, right up there with him at the finish," Eisenhart said. "My goal is to help him as much as possible. If that means hanging onto the white (best young rider) jersey, that's a bonus. The yellow jersey is what we're here for."

Anxiety & Panic Disorders Health Center
Mental Health and Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy is often used either alone or in combination with medications to treat mental illnesses. Called "therapy" for short, the word psychotherapy actually involves a variety of treatment techniques. During psychotherapy, a person with a mental illness talks to a licensed and trained mental health care professional who helps him or her identify and work through the factors that may be triggering the illness.
How Does Psychotherapy Help?
Psychotherapy helps people with a mental disorder to:
- Understand the behaviors, emotions, and ideas that contribute to his or her illness and learning how to modify them.
- Understand and identify the life problems or events -- like a major illness, a death in the family, a loss of a job, or a divorce -- that contribute to their illness and help them understand which aspects of those problems they may be able to solve or improve.
- Regain a sense of control and pleasure in life.
- Learn coping techniques and problem-solving skills.
Types of Therapy
Therapy can be given in a variety of formats, including:
- Individual: This therapy involves only the patient and the therapist.
- Group: Two or more patients may participate in therapy at the same time. Patients are able to share experiences and learn that others feel the same way and have had the same experiences.
- Marital/couples: This type of therapy helps spouses and partners understand why their loved one has a mental disorder, what changes in communication and behaviors can help, and what they can do to cope.
- Family: Because family is a key part of the team that helps people with mental illness get better, it is sometimes helpful for family members to understand what their loved one is going through, how they themselves can cope, and what they can do to help.
Approaches to Therapy
While therapy can be done in different formats -- like family, group, and individual -- there are also several different approaches that mental health professionals can take to provide therapy. After talking with the patient about their disorder, the therapist will decide which approach to use based on the suspected underlying factors contributing to the condition.
Different approaches to therapy include:
Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic therapy is based on the assumption that a person is having emotional problems because of unresolved, generally unconscious conflicts, often stemming from childhood. The goal of this type of therapy is for the patient to understand and cope better with these feelings by talking about the experiences. Psychodynamic therapy is administered over a period of at least several months, although it can last longer, even years.
Interpersonal Therapy
Interpersonal therapy focuses on the behaviors and interactions a patient has with family and friends. The primary goal of this therapy is to improve communication skills and increase self-esteem during a short period of time. It usually lasts three to four months and works well for depression caused by mourning, relationship conflicts, major life events, and social isolation.

Keith Schneider, the executive vice president and California project manager of North Carolina-based Keystone Corp., said the company's goal was to establish medical services in that particular part of Keystone Business Park.
"We'll keep it medical, make it a medical center — that's our target audience for that building," Schneider said.
The new tenants, Golden Bear Physical Therapy and West Orthodontics, have set up shop within the past week.
Orthodontist Jeremy West moved his office from El Circulo a week ago.
Golden Bear Physical Therapy opened Monday, Oct. 8. Founded in 1981, Golden Bear has two offices in Modesto, one in Turlock and one in Oakdale, and specializes in orthopedics, physical therapy and treatment of neurological, musculoskeletal and sports injuries.
Representatives from the two offices could not be reached for comment this week.
Del Puerto Health Center opened in the same building in March, moving from smaller quarters at Highway 33 and Ward Avenue.
Schneider said 4,000 square feet of space behind the two new businesses is still available to tenants.
Keystone also has 8,900 square feet to lease in a building just to the east of the complex, Schneider said.
Other tenants in Keystone Pacific Business Park are Patterson Joint Unified School District, Patterson Fire Station No. 2, Frontier Communications, GEA Westfalia Separator, furniture maker HPL Contract, auto parts distributor Affinia and distribution centers for CVS and Kohl's.
W.W. Grainger has a distribution center in the adjacent Keystone West Business Park, and a Modesto Junior College satellite site is slated to open in 2013 on a four-acre parcel that has been sold by the business park owner.

Day 5: Crossing Northern MontanaPosted October 19, 2014 by Holly Hayes Part of: Pacific to Mississippi Road Trip
Day 5 was mostly about making good eastward progress, so I spent most of my time behind the wheel. As usual, I had rejected the usual freeway route (I-90 in this case) in favor of a smaller highway (Highway 2), and was glad I did.
Day 4: History and Hiking in Glacier National ParkPosted October 13, 2014 by Holly Hayes Part of: Pacific to Mississippi Road Trip
104 years ago, President Taft signed a bill designating Glacier National Park as the 10th national park. Today there are over 50 national parks, but Glacier is still one of the largest and most notable. Called the "Crown of the Continent," it contains over 1 million acres of mountains, lakes, hiking trails, historic sites, and wildlife. It was designated a World Heritage Site in 1995.
Day 3: A Sunny Autumn Day in Kalispell, MontanaPosted October 7, 2014 by Holly Hayes Part of: Pacific to Mississippi Road Trip
I spent two nights in the small town of Kalispell, Montana, and had a great time. The sun was shining, the leaves were turning colors, the downtown was quiet and walkable, there were many good lodging options and interesting things to check out, and it's right next to Glacier National Park. Highly recommended.
Day 2: Spokane to KalispellPosted September 28, 2014 by Holly Hayes Part of: Pacific to Mississippi Road Trip
The first night of my road trip was spent at Spokane's historic Davenport Hotel, built in 1914. It's an impressive place with impressive history:
Day 1: Portland to SpokanePosted September 24, 2014 by Holly Hayes Part of: Pacific to Mississippi Road Trip
This is the first post in a series on a roadtrip from Oregon to Minnesota - and possibly beyond! As usual, I'm avoiding freeways, visiting historic places, staying in historic hotels, and eating in historic restaurants. The first day I drove from Portland, OR to Spokane, WA, with many stops along the way.

Thursday, as we know, is Earth Day, and while no one is suggesting that N.Y.P.D. Blue morph into the N.Y.P.D. Green, the Police Department is nonetheless taking steps to reduce its carbon footprint.
It has plans to buy 200 hybrid vehicles in 2010, officials say.
The new vehicles will be hybrid Ford Fusions and Escapes, the officials said, and they will begin arriving after they are outfitted for law enforcement use.
Last spring, officers in each borough began testing a large fleet of around 40 hybrid Nissan Altimas — environmentally friendly patrol vehicles that get better gas mileage than standard police cars, like Ford Crown Victorias or Chevrolet Impalas. Read more…

Hi everyone! I just want to repeat the links I posted over on the "Recipes for November" area in case anyone missed them.
You can listen to Dorie talk about Rugelach here:
and she has a post on her blog here:
And by the way, I've made Rugelach before and love, love, love them. I've tried a bunch of fillings and so far my favorite is apricot jam sprinkled with cinnamon, sugar and chopped walnuts. But raspberry jam / pecans / chocolate was pretty darn good too. And be sure to line your baking sheet with something — the filling oozes out and can be a real pain to clean off.

The Twist Bang Cut - Cutting The Perfect Fringe
Learn more about Sam Villa Signature Series Shears.
We've watched Sam go through the techniques to cut a twisted fringe and a side part fringe. So many of our fans have raved about this simple technique as it takes the place of using diagonal partings. Sam teaches us that low elevation and finger angle is key for these techniques as well as cutting on dry hair. When we use diagonal partings we run the risk of elevating as we bring down each section. These techniques are so much faster and easier for us as stylists and not so easy for a client to do on themselves!

Cutting long hair short
Picture this, someone with really long hair struts up to you and says, "Chop it all off!" It's a loaded situation with many variables and a high chance for a client freak out. Sam Villa says the first thing to do is try to convince them to take it slow and work their way up to a shorter length in 2-3 cuts, because if you lop it off then and there, you will probably never see them again. Villa's "The Convertible" DVD highlights a disconnected cut that can be done on any hair length. A cut so versatile it can transition with the client from long to short because it looks great at any length. And, because it's disconnected, it's really easy to recut. That's the ideal scenario, but life isn't always ideal, so if the client refuses your professional advice and you have no choice but to whack off a huge mass of hair, here's a tip to get you through the task at hand. After a deep breath (to psych yourself up, because there will be drama), pull all the hair back into a ponytail at the back of the head and cut it off. It's faster than taking section after section and having to comb through the long hair before cutting it. Removing the excess hair makes it so much easier to cut a new shape and be consistent with the sections.
Pumped Up Pixie
Some stylists have challenges communicating with clients because they are willing to say and do anything to get them back in the chair, things they know clients wants to hear. Sam Villa says put all your cards on the table, you'll still have an ace in your pocket. For instance, think about those clients with fine hair pixie cuts that want volume, yet don't want to use product. Well, that's just not going to happen and they need to be told that up front. Length is needed for volume, so find out what the priority is - a shorter length or volume, because they can't have both. And, product is not an option, it's a necessity, with application being key to achieving the volume. With short fine pixie cuts, Sam likes to emulsify Redken Hardware 16 in the palm of his hands and then apply it to his fingertips for application. He then massages it into the hair near the scalp, because it's important to put the product where you want the volume. Many fine hair clients shy away from product because they have been applying it incorrectly, like to the surface of the hair, which makes it go flat. Good communication is the ace in your pocket and that's what keeps clients coming back.
Suggesting an updated look for your clients
How do you take your client from an average look to an updated, personal, one of a kind look? Do you make recommendations based on you client's facial features and expectations instead of suggesting a current trend that might not be in their best interest? Sam Villa discusses key points you should address when you're suggesting a new hairstyle to your clients.

How to cut a side sweeping fringe
A side-sweeping fringe is a perfect accent almost anyone can pull off, the downside is, it rarely stays on the side and mostly flops in the face. Sam Villa says it's because of the weight, not length. So whatever you do, don't cut the hair shorter, just texturize it with a blending shear. Stand on the side that the fringe is on and take a diagonal section up and slightly over to the right. Then, with the blunt blade of a blending shear on the bottom, weave the shear in and out of the section slightly above the ends and open, close and backslide the shears multiple times. The pushing back action of backsliding creates variation of texture within the fringe. And, because the fringe no longer has so much weight, it stays put!

How to section and cut a forward angled bob
Curly haircuts all look the same
When Sam Villa travels the globe teaching, there is one question that seems to always come up, "What would you do with curly hair?" Some say curly hair has a mind of its own which is true, but it also has multiple textures, so when working with wavy, soft curls, spiral curls or kinky hair, Sam has these two tips. 1. Put the comb down and free hand with pinched sections – it will yield a more deconstructed shape. 2. If free handing is out of the question, take zigzag sections with a wide toothed comb. The size of the section depends on the texture and natural spring of the curl. In the 60's, curly hair and 'fros were cut to be solid shapes, now disconnected silhouettes enhance curls and create more natural shapes.
