Marvelous ManateesManatees are drawn to Fort Myers' 17-acre Manatee Park because its canal contains the warm-water discharge of a nearby power plant. When the water in the Gulf dips below 68 degrees, the manatees swim into the park to warm up.Pelicans, Egrets, Herons and MoreBirding in The Beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel is easy. You can probably start when you arrive at Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW), or in the parking lot of your hotel.If you're interested in birds, you'll want to travel to Sanibel Island's J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge. Choose to explore the refuge by tram, operated by Tarpon Bay Explorers, kayak, bike, foot or car. There are numerous parks and refuges in which to go bird watching. Among the best:- National Audubon Society's Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary – anhingas, storks, owls, warblers and hawks- Four Mile Cove Ecological Preserve – herons, egrets, woodpeckers and migratory birds- Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve – anhingas, red-shouldered hawks and wading birdsLoggerhead Sea TurtlesEach year beginning around May, female loggerhead sea turtles instinctively return to the beaches on which they were hatched to lay their eggs. While adults can reach 350 pounds, turtle hatchlings are tiny and fragile.Observe the nests from a distance, and be sure to follow the lights-out policy in effect on area beaches. Moonlight guides the hatchlings to the water, but artificial lights can confuse them and cause them to wander toward dangerous roads.DolphinsDolphin sighting is the Holy Grail of animal watching in Florida. Book a dolphin cruise offered by Adventures in Paradise or Captiva Cruises.

I am trouble shooting an issue with a PySerial program which interfaces a step motor via terminal emulation, and going back to the use of screen as a known working interface.
When I connect to the serial-USB adapter on /dev/ttyUSB* using the program screen, I have a working connection with the step motor and everything works as expected. That means I can set a user variable and reset it with no problem.
When I try to use my PySerial implementation, I can set the user variables only once before an error is thrown.
I am therefore attempting to rule out a communication protocol problem by comparing the settings used by the screen program with those of my Python program.
The heart of my question, is that I do not know how to examine the full com parameters of screen when it is connected to the /dev/ttyUSB* ports.

Chaos in the streets? Blame cyberspace!
By James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy on July 12, 2013 at 2:14 PM
In the third of a seven-part Baker Institute Viewpoints series, we evaluate the impact that a new wave of civil unrest will have on international politics.
Turkey, Brazil, then Egypt: Once again, discontent has led to major popular protest — and, in the case of Egypt, the removal of a democratically elected leader and replacement by a military-backed interim government. And just as before, the Internet and social media have served as a facilitator of these movements.…

How Internet privacy protects free speech
By James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy on October 4, 2011 at 1:06 PM
We hear a great deal of debate here in the United States on the issue of online privacy. There are persuasive arguments from both sides on this issue, but the most interesting comments I hear on this topic are often from my students at Rice University. Even during the peak of the warrantless wiretapping controversy, my students generally made the argument, "I don't do anything wrong on the web, so I have nothing to fear from monitoring and surveillance."
Elsewhere, this is definitely not the case.…

Thank you oil prices? Arabtec profits 'more than double'
Dubai builder Arabtec said its first-quarter net profit more doubled on the back of a strong delivery of projects and growth in its Gulf businesses.
The contractor, in which Abu Dhabi state fund Aabar owns a major stake, is planning a series of acquisitions and mergers, CEO Hasan Ismaik said in a statement.
It is targeting global players in high-margin sectors such as oil and gas, power plants, infrastructure, and facility management of huge industrial plants, he said.
Arabtec made a net profit of AED138 million ($37.57 million) compared with AED62.5 million a year earlier. The earnings beat estimates of analysts polled by Reuters who forecast an average profit of AED116.3 million.
Revenue for the quarter rose 39 percent to AED2.152 billion.
Arabtec is trying to evolve from a local contractor into a multinational development company as its finances are boosted by a recovery in Dubai's property market and its closeness to Aabar.
It announced plans to list a portion of its construction unit in an initial public offering in Abu Dhabi next year.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Center
5 Things People With RA Want You to Know
2. "It's not 'just' arthritis." continued...
"The truth is, living with RA means you will most likely be on a variety of medications for the rest of your life," she says. "You may need multiple surgeries or joint replacements, too."
A lot of misunderstandings happen when people don't know the difference between osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis, is typically caused by wear and tear. It's more common as people get older. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that can set in at any time in a person's life.
"I've had so many people say, 'Oh, arthritis? Getting older sucks, doesn't it?'" Chamorro says. "That's really irksome."
3. "A nap isn't going to make me feel less tired."
"Tired doesn't begin to describe how I feel if I'm having a bad day or bad week," says Barbara Searles, author of Kick Pain in the Kitchen. She was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 5 years ago.
Chronic fatigue affects 89% of people who have the condition, and it can sap their strength, Rosian says. She tells her patients with RA to be realistic about how active they can be when fatigue sets in. She also suggests they share how they're feeling with their friends and family members.
"You can say, 'When I say I'm having a bad day, it's like having the flu and a fever of 102. I may seem fine, but I am really struggling,'" Rosian says.
But if you have RA and you're constantly exhausted, it can be a sign that your treatment isn't working, and you should see your rheumatologist right away, she says.
4. "A pill or diet won't cure me."
"After I was first diagnosed, people would come up to me and say things like, 'You should go gluten-free!' or 'You should try krill oil,' like that would fix everything," Searles says.
In reality, "cutting out gluten and most processed foods has eased my symptoms, but RA is a genetic disease. No lifestyle change will ever make it just go away," she says.

With the help of College Summit, Staci Bist's dream just might come true.
For one-period, every other day at Surrattsville High School in Clinton, students like Staci learn what it takes to get into college.
The year-long program prepares high-school seniors across Maryland, D.C. and Virginia for life after high school.
"The tools they gain in class on how to make action plans and how to implement them - that's something they can transfer to college or whatever they do at work and whatever they do with the rest of their lives," says teacher Kirsten Simpkins.
At Surrattsville, College Summit helps students write personal statements, build resumes, walks them through the application process and the all-important "how to pay for school."
Peer leader Patience Amankwa says being in the program has been a life changing experience.
"I walk with a sense of pride," Amankwa says.
Principal Kristi Holden says patience isn't alone.
"They realize 'oh I am doing great...I can do this. Oh I've overcome these obstacles. Now I can go to college,'" says Holden.
And students like Staci now have a plan to move forward.
"I didn't know where to start," Staci says. "After this class, I really started learning."

Hey Everyone,
I enjoy building computers, taking computers apart, and fixing computers. I tend to acquire computer parts from time to time that I don't need, so if you need some computer parts, feel free to ask me and I will see what I can do. I also like to occasionally code different things, and work on larger projects from time to time. I am a novice at Batch, PHP, and HTML, and am getting pretty good with Python. I also enjoy doing prototyping every once in a while and currently have an Arduino, a Raspberry Pi, and 2 different models of the Parallax Board of education, one of which came with my Boe bot.

I wouldn't say CNN steers clear from opinion-based shows. They call it
"news," but it's nothing more than opinion-based propaganda.
Anderson Cooper is one of the worst violators of biased reporting. I've
seen Wolfgang Blitzer dismiss the results of a CNN poll, because it produced the
wrong results.
No question Fox News also has it's bias. But the world seems to be realizing you can not depend on CNN alone for accurate news.

Maybe if CNN gave up their blatant liberal bias and started to actually try to be unbiased in their news they could get some credibility back with US consumers. The simple fact is that Fox News, even with their conservative bias is the least biased major news outlet out there. Since more of the country considers themselves to be conservative than liberal, it isn't that hard to figure out that CNN will not catch up to Fox until liberals can become the dominant ideology.

and fox news viewers remain less informed then people that do not watch any news, so what's your point? viewer-ship does not correlate with quality (although CNN is not batting it out of the park in this area lately) as anyone that bothers turning the TV on or tries to go to a movie knows.

I like Headline News in the morning for my facts. Bloomberg for Financial News.
I'll occasionally watch Piers Morgan on CNN.
But, for thought provoking analysis/commentary/opinion I like Charlie Rose & CSpan.
Some of the news from other countroies you can find on Cable (Al-Jeezera incl) are heads & shoulders above any flotsam and jetsam News Corp peddles. Without the eye candy on Fox Bus, Rupert M's propaganda channels are trash.

Making healthy choices
Making healthy choices is a big part of managing type 2 diabetes. The more you learn about the disease, the more motivated you may be to make good choices and follow your treatment plan.

- Shift from eating unhealthy saturated fats to eating healthier unsaturated fats.
- Avoid foods that contain trans fat.
- Eat less salt.
- Be careful with alcohol, which affects your blood sugar. It can make problems from nerve damage, blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight even worse. Adult women should limit alcohol to 1 drink a day with a meal. Adult men should limit alcohol to 2 drinks a day with a meal. And women who are pregnant should not drink at all.

The team of Adam Sandler and a 5-year-old boy beat out a family of jungle apes raising an orphan, as Big Daddy trounced Tarzan at the box office last weekend. CBS This Morning's Entertainment Contributor Eleanor Mondale spoke to him about his new role as a hot comedian in Hollywood.
Big Daddy earned $41.5 million over the weekend, adding to his previous successes with The Waterboy and The Wedding Singer. Together, they place Sandler in the elite group of stars making upwards of $20 million a movie.
In Big Daddy, he plays a man who never quite grew up but who adopts a child to impress his girlfriend. When she dumps him anyway, big daddy is left with a big responsibility.
The movie is something of a departure for Sandler, since it shows more of a serious side than was seen in his previous movies. But whether he's laughing or crying, his wise-cracking humor has earned him a huge following.
That has only lately made a big impression on him. "This last year, because with the movies making all that money they talked about me in the press more," Sandler says. "So now, when my mother's playing golf and she's with three other ladies, they'll ask her questions about me. Whereas two years ago, my mother would say, 'my son's an actor,' and say my name, and they would say, 'Oh... don't think I heard of that'," Sandler says.
Sandler nurtured his comedic talent at comedy clubs while at New York University. From 1991-1995 he provided his share of funny characters to Saturday Night Life's repertoire as a writer and performer. And in 1996 he co-scripted and starred in the golfing comedy Happy Gilmore which was followed by other well-received comedies such as Bulletproof and The Wedding Singer. Then came The Waterboy, which earned $38 million in its opening weekend.
Sandler is no longer the most eligible man in Hollywood. He is engaged to be married to model Jackie Titone, and he says she wants to keep their home life low profile.

Hello, I have a Mobile Small Engine Service in which I use these gloves on every engine job. Just recently I tried the 7 mm gloves for the first time. I had been using the 5mm gloves which were ok, but ripped a lot if they contacted a sharp edge or something snagged them. I have done 3 or 4 job with the same pair of gloves because they're not ripping. Also the other day, I accidently placed my hand on a engine muffles after it had run for a while, while wearing the 7mm gloves. Because of the thickness of the gloves, I had my hand on the muffler just long enough to realize it was hot thru the gloves but didn't burn my skin due to the 7mm gloves I had on. If I had the 5mm or no gloves on, I could of lost some skin. Well made product and I also like the 100 count box.

I bought these gloves for oil changes and working with chemicals. The issue is that unlike latex, nitrile is slippery when wet so while they are probably ideal for chemicals and dirt, they have problems doing oil changes if oil is spilled on them. I opted for these over the 9 mil gloves as they seem durable enough to not tear while being a better value for a throwaway glove. They can be removed w/o tearing and reused. Sizes run small 1 to 1 1/2 sizes.

Good and Tough
By Ol Pilot
from Germantown TN
I use these gloves for mechanical work with lubricated or greased parts. I also use them when painting and with hot paint solvents like acetone, MEK and lacquer thinner. They have good tactile feel and stand up well to harsh solvents. Excellent value.
Preferred by my technicians

About Me Professional
Techs prefer the 7 mil. Use them during fluid changes. One set lasts the whole job where they were going through 3 or so of the 5 mil.
Tuff glove

Useful hand protection at a great price.
I love these gloves
By Jim the Cubmaster.
from Anderson, IN
These gloves are great. They are thick enough to prevent easy breakage, cuts, or tears but thin enough to have a good grip. A good value for the money.
thick and durable
By 4M design

You can ask more for the price, very durable. If you want thick glove make sure pick a 7 plus mil..

I work as machinist, and the thin 5mil gloves rip almost instantly while putting them on. I wear xl gloves and the 7mil usually last all day, even with taking them off 4-5 times.....

Director: Charlie Lords
Company: Vivid Entertainment Group
Cast: Alex Divine, Tony Tedeschi, Haley Paige, Mercedez, TJ Cox, Roxy Jezel, Ashley Haze, Steven St. Croix
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
Push to Vivid/Mercedez lovers.
Why Vivid insists on running all those 1.800 ads and penis helper commercials before the show begins is a mystery. It's tacky; and you can't skip through them.
The basic plot is this: Mercedez enrolls in an acting/porn school. Which means we have to sit through Mercedez and Tedeschi rehearsing. The reward? Well, it ain't that great. Standard sex from Mercedez (who has an amazing face), who lacks real or acted passion. In fact, each scene begins with a rehearsal. Isn't that what the behind the scenes section is for?

Results of Operations and Financial Condition
PAA Natural Gas Storage, L.P. (the "Partnership") today issued a press release reporting its third quarter results. We are furnishing the press release, attached as Exhibit 99.1, pursuant to Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 of Form 8-K. Pursuant to Item 7.01, we are providing updated fourth quarter and full year 2012 detailed guidance for financial performance and we are providing preliminary guidance for calendar year 2013. In accordance with General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K, the information presented herein under Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Disclosure of Fourth Quarter 2012 Guidance and Full Year 2013 Preliminary Guidance
Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below in Note 1 to the "Operating and Financial
Guidance" table) is a financial measure used by our chief operating decision
maker to evaluate our performance. In Note 9 below, we reconcile Adjusted EBITDA
to net income for the 2012 guidance periods presented. We encourage you to visit
our website at www.pnglp.com (in particular the section entitled "Non-GAAP
Reconciliations"), which presents a historical reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA
and certain commonly used non-GAAP financial measures. We present Adjusted
EBITDA because it is a measure used by management to evaluate performance and
because we believe it provides additional information with respect to both the
performance of our fundamental business activities and our ability to meet our
future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. We
believe that Adjusted EBITDA is used to assess our operating performance
compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry,
without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis.
In addition, as part of our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, we have highlighted
the impact of certain selected items that impact comparability between periods
and affect Net Income, EBITDA and Net Income per Basic and Diluted Limited
Partner Unit. These selected items include (i) equity compensation expense and
(ii) mark-to-market of open derivative positions.
The following guidance for the three-month and twelve-month periods ending December 31, 2012 includes assumptions and estimates that we believe are reasonable given our assessment of historical trends (modified for changes in market conditions), business cycles and other reasonably available information. Projections contemplate inter-period changes in future performance resulting from a variety of factors we believe to be relevant, including new expansion projects, changes in our portfolio of storage and services contracts, the seasonal and dynamic nature of our business, and other market and competitive factors influencing the demand for storage services. Our projections reflect the assumption that derivative instruments utilized are fully effective in hedging applicable risks in accordance with our risk management procedures. We do not believe that there is an accurate way to forecast any ineffectiveness in hedging relationships or unrealized gains or losses required to be recognized in net income without the offsetting impact of physical transactions for a period associated with derivative activity. Our assumptions and future performance, however, are both subject to a wide range of business risks and uncertainties, so we can provide no assurance that actual performance will fall within the guidance ranges. Please refer to information under the caption "Forward-Looking Statements and Associated Risks" below. These risks and uncertainties, as well as other unforeseeable risks and uncertainties, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the following table. The operating and financial guidance provided below is given as of the date hereof, based on information known to us as of November 4, 2012. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

2. Business Overview. Our business consists of the acquisition, development, operation and commercial management of natural gas storage facilities. We provide natural gas storage services to a broad mix of customers, including local gas distribution companies (LDCs), electric utilities, pipelines, direct industrial users, electric power generators, marketers, producers and affiliates of such entities. Our storage rates are regulated under Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, (FERC) rate-making policies, which currently permit our facilities to charge market-based rates for our services. We own and operate three natural gas storage facilities located in Louisiana, Mississippi and Michigan. From time to time, we also lease storage capacity and pipeline transportation capacity from third parties in order to increase our operational flexibility and enhance the services we offer our customers. Acquisitions are an important element of our growth strategy; however, the accompanying detailed financial guidance does not include any forecasts for acquisitions, but does include certain costs we expect to incur associated with evaluating acquisition opportunities.
We generate net revenue primarily from the provision of fee-based gas storage services to our customers, and we categorize the majority of the net revenue we generate as being derived from "Firm Storage Services" or "Hub Services and Merchant Storage." We also generate a portion of our net revenues from other sources as described below in "Other revenues."
� Net Revenue from Firm Storage Services. The majority of our net revenue from firm storage services is derived from contracts with initial terms that generally range from one year to ten years in length and pursuant to which customers receive the assured or "firm" right to store gas in our facilities. Under our firm storage contracts, our customers are obligated to pay us fixed monthly capacity reservation fees, which are owed to us regardless of the actual storage capacity utilized. Firm storage services revenue also includes cycling fees based on the volume of natural gas nominated for injection and/or withdrawal as well as a small portion of natural gas nominated for injection that we retain as compensation for our fuel use. Certain components of our firm storage services revenue, such as cycling fees and fuel compensation, are dependent on the injection and withdrawal activities of our individual customers, both from a timing and volume perspective. Timing differences between forecasted activity and actual activity may result in a shifting of revenues between individual quarterly periods within a given storage season. Throughput differences may result in our ultimate realization of revenues being different from our forecasted amounts.
Firm storage services revenues are shown net of applicable storage related costs. Storage related costs consist of fees incurred to lease third-party storage and pipeline capacity and fuel expense we incur at our facilities associated with managing injection and deliverability capacity and certain other costs we may incur. Also included in our storage related costs is fuel expense we incur as part of our long term activities.
Our full year revenue guidance for firm storage services includes the fixed capacity reservation fees, and an assumed amount of cycling fees and net fuel consumption, that we will earn under such contracts.
� Net Revenue from Hub Services and Merchant Storage. Our guidance for net revenue from Hub Services and Merchant Storage includes revenues generated from the provision of hub services at our facilities and net revenue generated by our commercial marketing group, which captures short term market opportunities by utilizing a portion of our owned and leased storage capacity . . .

Model Suggests There Are Fewer People with HIV in U.S. and More on Treatment
- Details
- Category: Cascade of Care
- Published on Sunday, 08 May 2016 00:00
- Written by Gus Cairns
A study comparing recorded diagnoses of HIV with subsequent records of viral load and CD4 T-cell tests suggests that the number of people living with HIV in the U.S. could have been overestimated by as much as 45% -- and the proportion who are on antiretroviral therapy (ART) with undetectable viral loads could have been underestimated by as much as 50%. There could be as few as 820,000 people with HIV in the U.S. compared with the normally accepted figure of 1.2 million -- and up to 55% of those could be on ART and virally suppressed, compared with the most commonly quoted figure of 30%.

The Genvoya single-tablet regimen containing tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) suppressed HIV as well as a similar coformulation containing the older tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), but demonstrated better bone and kidney tolerability after 2 years of treatment, according to a report in the May 1 edition of the Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes.

Merck's MK-8591, n investigational antiretroviral agent that maintains drug levels that are able to inhibit HIV up to 6 months after dosing could represent a "paradigm shift" in HIV therapy and prophylaxis, according to research presented at the recent Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI 2016) in Boston.
Gene Therapy Snips HIV Out of Infected Cells and Makes Uninfected Cells Resistant
- Details

- Published on Sunday, 10 April 2016 00:00
- Written by Gus Cairns
For the first time, researchers have used a gene-editing technique related to one already used to produce cells resistant to HIV infection to target HIV-infected cells. They have managed to remove HIV genes completely from infected cells, as shown by reductions in the cells' overall rate of HIV production. In cells not already infected, the therapy has itself become part of their genome, producing cells that are resistant to infection for a prolonged period, according to a report in a recent edition of Nature Scientific Reports.
CROI 2016: VRC01 Antibody Delays But Does Not Prevent HIV Rebound After ART Interruption

- Published on Thursday, 31 March 2016 00:00
- Written by Liz Highleyman
VRC01, a broadly neutralizing antibody targeting HIV's CD4 binding site, was able to modestly delay the return of viral replication following interruption of antiviral therapy (ART), according to a study presented at the Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI 2016)last month in Boston. VRC01 did not maintain viral suppression on its own, but it may play a role in combination therapy for HIV treatment or a functional cure.
FDA Approves Descovy TAF Combination Pill for HIV Treatment, Not Yet for PrEP

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) this week approved Gilead Sciences' Descovy, a new combination pill containing tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), which is easier on the kidneys and bones than the older tenfovir disiproxil fumarate (TDF) version. The new coformulation is similar to Truvada, but it has been approved only for use as a component of HIV treatment, not for pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP.

Doctors at Johns Hopkins announced that they recently performed the first-ever liver transplant and the first kidney transplant in the U.S. from an HIV-positive donor to a recipient living with HIV, made possible by the 2013 HIV Organ Policy Equity (HOPE) Act. Both transplants were successful and the patients are doing "extremely well," infectious disease specialist Christine Durand said at a March 30 press conference.

Polly4 Stars Out Of 5Apologia Zoology Lab KitNovember 18, 2015PollyQuality: 0Value: 0Meets Expectations: 0I like this kit but for me I wouldn't order it again had I realized how expensive it would be compared to what you get. I like the fact that it is separated into what you need for each lesson and labeled very nicely. Most of the supplies in the kit I already had in my home. There is a pretty long list of supplies that I have to get on my own anyway that are not in the kit. So, if you are considering this kit please stop and see what you already have around your home and what is not in this kit that you will need. I got it quite a bit cheaper by purchasing it from christianbook.com but it was still pricey. At a few other places on line this same kit was way more expensive. I wouldn't recommend it because I believe it's over priced for the amount of supplies you get.
smtroyer5 Stars Out Of 5July 31, 2013smtroyerQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5what a blessing to not have to search for all of these items! To save me the time of searching and purchasing these supplies, it was well worth the cost!
Rt4box1615 Stars Out Of 5Worth buyingFebruary 23, 2013Rt4box161Quality: 5Value: 4Meets Expectations: 5This is the first apologia science kit we've purchased. I am very impressed on the organization. You receive the items already bundled and labeled according to the lesson(Lesson#1 will have a sticker on the outside of the ziplock bag with all the items listed, and it will tell you if you need to supply an item, and it will say" found in Lesson 3, for example if it's used for more than one lesson. I will be buying astronomy next year, and I will purchase the kit with it as well! I've had other moms tell me they too believed the kit was worth buying. It will save you time and frustration, It seems like a lot of money, and it is, but it made doing the experiments so enjoyable!

JennRochester, NYAge: 35-44Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Worth the money for convenience!August 27, 2012JennRochester, NYAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5I was very happy with this product. Truthfully, I a tend to be a lazy person when it comes to gathering materials to do science experiments. I think experiments are worthwhile, I just don't feel like looking for all the materials. This science kit has done the majority of all that work for me. Not to mention, they have it all bagged up by lessons. I do have to provide some things, but the majority of those things I actually have in the house. So the convenience this kit provides is worth the money, in my opinion.
Ask Christianbook
Q: Colored Pencils Included? The photo shows that the colored pencils are included for Lesson 2, but the Lab Kit list doesn't show that they are. Can you confirm whether or not the pencils are included? Thank you.
Yes, the Colored Pencils are included and are at the end of the list under "Miscellaneous Supply Kit".
Q: How many kits should I buy? I am teaching Grade 4, 6 and k this year. It's my first year, I love the idea of the kit, but am unsure if they can 'share' to do the experiments together, or do they each need one? Help!! :)
Most of the experiments can be done together or enough materials are provided for multiple students. There are a few projects which you may need to supply additional items for.

Cheez-Its and other cheezy snack crackers are delicious, but if you want to control the flavor yourself, make them less salty or more spicy, or would just prefer to enjoy your Cheez-Its without all of the chemical additives used in the mass production of them, they're surprisingly easy to make at home.

Robin Guthrie
Sunflower Stories
US: 23 Feb 2010
UK: 15 Mar 2010
Former Cocteau Twins guitarist Robin Guthrie's new EP Sunflower Stories doesn't break new stylistic ground for the Scotsman, but that's what makes it a pleasantly effective short-form release. Sticking to a concise three- to four-minute length per song, the four-track EP offers bite-sized instrumental nuggets that perfectly encapsulate Guthrie's trademark sound, a beautifully fragile style where dulcet arpeggios ring amongst vaporous guitar textures (and has long since spawned numerous progeny amongst the dream pop and shoegaze tributaries of pop music). Issued by Darla in a limited release of 1,000 copies, Sunflower Stories isn't so essential that there will be a gaping hole in your record collection if you miss out on it. Nevertheless, it's a tasty portion of dream pop, and if you are unfamiliar with Guthrie's music, it's the perfect pocket-sized introduction to the type of guitar stylings the man made his name on.

Police in Orange arrested a woman they believe to be a suspect in an aggravated assault that occurred on May 7 after stopping her for a traffic violation.
An Orange resident was arrested May 5 after reportedly being discovered in the possession of child pornography, including pornographic photos and videos, police report.
West Orange Police arrested an Orange woman after she reportedly brandished a gun at employees of a local car dealer, police report.
According to Assistant Chief Jesse Romero, officers arrested 25-year-old Chelsea Kindle of Orange for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon on May 1 after employees of Granger Chevrolet in West Orange reported the woman came in bearing a firearm and demanding to see an employee of the business.

The Police Department for years has assigned its officers to different divisions, be it patrol, special crimes, detective or another unit.
But police brass also have a proclivity for identifying individual officers who prove adept at snuffing out certain kinds of crimes. This practice can pay dividends when updated crime numbers are released by the department, as they were last week in an annual report that revealed a 7.1 percent increase in crime in Amarillo from 2008 to 2009.
The specific crimes that drove the overall increase were arson, thefts, robbery and assault. For instance, the number of assaults reported to police rose from 1,016 in 2008 to 1,116.
Police officials identify neighborhoods where reports of assaults are growing and assign to those areas officers who display an ability to defuse tension, mollify residents or otherwise tamp down incidents.
It's these "directed patrols" - involving two to eight officers - that are most commonly used by police in their effort to extinguish crime that flares up.
Police Chief Robert Taylor said data collected each week is analyzed and used to determine where directed patrols will be deployed.
On any given day, officers might be assigned to patrol parking lots in unmarked cars, surveil a house where drug dealing is suspected, or watch a suspect in a series of metal thefts.
The officers who are charged with conducting the patrols often don't know they are going to be required to participate until they arrive at the station for their shifts, police Sgt. Brent Barbee said.
"Very often the guys from the cops unit come in and are told, 'Guess what, your hours are changing this week,' " Barbee said.
Barbee said the patrols have been effective in preventing certain kinds of crime.
He said if police suspect narcotics are being sold out of a house, they'll stake it out. Police will make traffic stops on people who leave the house and ask for permission to search the vehicles, he explained.
The locations for a rise in certain crimes are always changing, according to Barbee. "Any neighborhood can be the area we're looking at this week."
He said if there's a rash of break-ins of cars in a parking lot, an unmarked car might cruise through more often.
In February two officers patrolling a parking lot of a motel arrested a man who was seen taking electrical wire from a truck, Barbee said.
Sgt. Steve Brush, who helps oversee directed patrols, said any neighborhood in the city can see a rash of crimes. Brush said there's often one house in a neighborhood that is the origin of much of the area's crime, whether it's narcotics, theft or vandalism.
"They are great neighborhoods except for one house," Brush said. "All the neighbors will know; it's that one house and it's hard to get rid of."

Stillman's rally falls short at Shaw
Published: Sunday, September 16, 2012 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, September 15, 2012 at 11:56 p.m.
DURHAM, N.C. | A slow start proved to be the difference as the Stillman Tigers' football team fell short in its comeback attempt against the Shaw Bears on Saturday afternoon, falling 31-26 at Durham County Memorial Stadium.
Stillman was driving in the final seconds of the game for what would have been a go-ahead touchdown, but failed to find the end zone despite starting six plays inside the Shaw 20-yard line.
Stillman started an offensive drive on its own 19. The Tigers moved the ball through the air and with the aid of several penalties. However, with first down on the Shaw 12, Stillman could not find the goal line to go ahead.
After Shaw (1-2) scored on two of its first three possessions, it was the fourth Bears offensive attempt that gave Stillman its first points. Late in the first quarter, after the Bears got the ball on an interception, Shaw began a drive at its own 3-yard line. Four plays into the drive, Zante Carlis intercepted a James Stallons pass and returned it 37 yards for a Stillman touchdown.
Stillman (1-2) got a 58-yard field goal just prior to halftime, trimming the deficit to 19-10.
In the second half, after another Shaw touchdown, Stillman capped a five-play, 51-yard drive with a 2-yard touchdown run by LaKevin Camp. Stillman scored a safety when Stallons recovered his own fumble in the end zone. On the subsequent drive, Stillman quarterback Josh Straughan connected with Camp on a 22-yard touchdown pass, giving the Tigers a 26-25 lead.
But three offensive possessions later, Shaw got another rushing touchdown to put the Bears ahead 31-26 with 3:32 left in regulation.
Shaw held a 443-211 offensive yardage advantage. The Bears held Stillman to minus-1 yard rushing while gaining 172 yards. Stillman quarterbacks were sacked eight times while Shaw built a 271-212 passing yardage advantage.
For the second consecutive game, third-down conversions hurt the Tigers. Stillman converted just four of 18 chances while Shaw made seven of 16 conversions.
Camp had 53 all-purpose yards and two touchdowns for Stillman. Damian Ford accounted for 94 yards, while Charles Payne had 89 yards.
Straughan finished 26-for-53 passing for 212 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions.
Carlos Wilson led the team with seven tackles while Willie Huggins and Marcus Matthews each had six tackles. Jeremy Hall and Lakeevis Tabb each had five tackles and a pass breakup.
The Tigers host Kentucky State in divisional action next Saturday at 5 p.m.

I can imagine that for some people, allowing somebody else to use your bed (sleep with your mutual partner in your bed - the one you and that partner usually share) could be a way of controlling the other relationship. (You always have the power to retract the permission.) And for some people, sleeping in somebody else' bed would make you feel at a disadvantage (in their power / "owing them one" - though maybe not that defined or even conscious of it). Maybe lovinhimloviner's partner's GF feels the latter?
lovinhimloviner, at least you changed the sheets! I used to stay at a 3-flat (3-apartment) [young] anarchists' living space whenever I visited the city. I was told to take whatever bed was available, nobody cared about my using their sheets*, and if the bed's usual occupant happened to change plans and come home after I was in their bed, they'd just toddle off and find somebody else' vacant bed.
* I know, I know: I could have taken my own sheets or a sleeping bag, but I wasn't bothered that much either (for the one night). I could always shower before and after... But if I thought that an absence of 2 weeks from my home meant that potentially 14 different people had slept in my bed / sheets, I'd feel a bit queasy.

Recession fears, weak earnings stoke stock selling
Published: Wednesday, October 22, 2008 at 11:43 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 22, 2008 at 3:01 p.m.
NEW YORK (AP) -- World stock markets sagged again Wednesday as a barrage of weak corporate earnings stoked fears that the government's financial intervention won't keep global economies out of recession.
Poor earnings from large companies in disparate sectors Wachovia Corp., Boeing and Merck & Co. illustrated how wide the downturn had spread. One bright spot was McDonald's Corp., where third-quarter profits rose thanks to the strength of its Dollar Menu.
Even with the aggressive steps the government has already taken, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson told interviewer Charlie Rose Tuesday, "Clearly, we're going to have a number of difficult months ahead of us in terms of the real economy."
Most major indexes fell more than 3 percent, including the Dow Jones industrial average, which was down 290 points in midday trading. Oil prices hit lows last seen in June 2007, trading below $68 a barrel on worries about weakening demand.
Asian markets veered sharply lower Wednesday, with Tokyo's Nikkei index tumbling 6.79 percent. Hong Kong's Hang Seng was down 6.2 percent, while South Korea's main index shed 5.1 percent.
The major European indexes Britain's FTSE 100, Germany's DAX and the CAC-40 in France all slipped about 4 percent.
In South America, Brazil's Bovespa dropped more than 7 percent after opening and Argentina's Merval index dropped more than 16 percent, after falling 11 percent Tuesday. Argentina's president announced plans to nationalize private pension funds to protect retirees from the global financial crisis.
World leaders will gather in Washington on Nov. 15 to discuss the meltdown. A senior administration official said Wednesday that the forum will be the first in a series of international meetings to discuss what economists predict could be a long and deep downturn.
For many U.S. companies, the damage has already begun.
Wachovia, which is being bought by Wells Fargo for about $14 billion in stock, said it lost $23.89 billion in the third quarter, down from earnings of $1.62 billion in the same quarter a year ago. Airplane maker Boeing reported its earnings slumped 38 percent as a strike halted production of commercial jets.
Merck & Co. said it will slash 7,200 jobs as part of a new restructuring program. The drugmaker's third-quarter profit plunged 28 percent, partly due to flat sales. Earnings also fell at paper company Kimberly-Clark Corp., insurer WellPoint Inc. and drug developer Wyeth.
"We are going into what is very clearly a recession mode," Blake Jorgensen, Yahoo's chief financial officer, said in a Tuesday interview. Yahoo is slashing 1,500 jobs while it braces for a deep downturn likely to extend well into 2009.
"Right now we have nine million Americans out of work, that's up from six million this time last year, and to every trader on the floor, to every trader upstairs, that's the most important number" because consumer spending makes up two-thirds of the economy, said Alan Valdes, vice president of trading firm Hillard and Lyons.
A week after Paulson announced the administration would spend $250 billion to buy stakes in U.S. banks, the Federal Reserve stepped up Tuesday with a new program to help money market mutual funds that have been squeezed by worried investors demanding to cash out their holdings.
The Fed said it would provide up to $540 billion in financing though a program run by JPMorgan Chase & Co. to purchase from mutual funds certificates of deposit, bank notes and commercial paper. The program, to be called the Money Market Investor Funding Facility, is designed to revive the market for commercial paper, short-term loans that are critical for keeping businesses running.
Money market funds hold about one-third of all commercial paper and Fed officials said that about $500 billion had flowed out of prime money market funds since August as investors became increasingly worried about their ability to redeem shares. On Sept. 18, the Treasury Department announced that it was tapping a $50 billion Treasury fund to provide guarantees for the assets in the money market accounts.
The Fed announced Wednesday it will boost the interest rate paid to commercial banks on excess reserves.
Paulson said in his television interview that banks might use part of the money they receive from the government to make acquisitions of weaker banks.
The initiatives seem to be having a positive effect. Yields on Treasury bills and the interest rates banks charge each other have both fallen back to late-September levels. Bank-to-bank lending rates fell sharply overnight. The London Interbank Offered Rate, or Libor, on three-month loans in dollars fell to 3.54 percent from 3.83 percent, dropping for an eighth straight day. Libor is important because many mortgage and credit card rates are pegged to it and it's a good barometer of banks' willingness to lend.
Meanwhile, members of Congress are moving forward with efforts to overhaul the regulatory system. The changes could be the most sweeping since the 1930s, when Congress revamped how the financial system was regulated in response to the 1929 stock market crash and a wave of bank failures.
Democrats in Congress are also pushing efforts to assemble a second economic stimulus program that could total $150 billion or more. On Monday, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said a "significant" stimulus package is appropriate. The White House has yet to endorse the idea, but has said President Bush was at least willing to consider a second stimulus measure.
