906 - me too |
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 5:49 AM GMT on September 02, 2010
Hi, Dr. Rob Carver with your evening blog update. It's a busy night in the tropics with category 4 Hurricane Earl and Tropical Storms Fiona and Gaston in the Atlantic. We'll focus on Earl tonight.
As of 11PM EDT, Earl is a Category 4 storm with sustained winds of 140 mph and faster gusts. From the advisory, Earl is located at 27.8 N, 73.8 W, 520 miles south-southeast of Cape Hatteras, NC. On average, Earl is currently moving north-northwest at 18 mph. Data from hurricane hunter flights show that Earl's pressure has fallen, the minimum central pressure is now 932 mb. Looking at Figure 1, an estimate of rainfall rates (think radar in space), we see a complete eyewall, with an especiallly vigorous thunderstorm cluster in the northwest quadrant. These

Earl is still a large storm. Hurricane force winds extend 90 miles from the storm center and tropical storm force winds can be found 230 miles away. 12 foot seas extend at least 210 nmi from the center in all directions and may reach out to 450 nmi in the northeast quadrant of the storm. The most recent estimate (930PM EDT) of Earl's integrated kinetic energy is 91 TJ, with a wind impact of 3.1 out of 6 and a storm surge impact of 4.7 out of 6. Like Dr. Masters said earlier today, if the right front quadrant of Earl stays out to sea, the storm surge may not be as significant as this rating indicates.
Track Forecast
NHC has not really altered their track forecast for this update. Thanks to the subtropical high, Earl will continue turning toward the north as it moves around the subtropical high. When the trough in the jet stream comes out on Thursday, Earl will accelerate quickly to the northeast. The timing of the trough's arrival will determine Earl's impact on the East Coast. If the trough comes out quickly, Earl will stay at sea. If the trough is late in arriving, it could move Earl across the East Coast.
That said, the current forecast still holds that Earl's center will stay out to sea, but with Earl's center passing near the Outer Banks late Thursday night, then passing the Delmarva peninsula Friday morning before flying past Cape Cod Friday night and crossing over Canada's Nova Scotia Saturday. There is also a small possibility (less than 10%) that Earl could pass directly over the Outer Banks and/or the Delmarva peninsula. However, with a storm of Earl's size, the center does not have to pass overhead to cause damage. Please keep this in mind when considering your hurricane preparations.
Winds Forecast
Earl's size and track will produce tropical-storm force winds somewhere along the East Coast this weekend, and there is a 28% chance of hurricane-force winds along the Outer Banks. NHC puts out a very useful wind probability forecast. The highlights are that Cape Hatteras, NC has a 28% chance of hurricane-force winds and a 91% chance of tropical-storm (TS) force winds. A wide swath of 30+% probabilities covers the East Coast from Virginia to New England. Cities with a greater than 40% chance of TS winds include Norfolk, Ocean City, Providence, Boston, and Nantucket. Halifax, Nova Scotia in Canada has a 62% chance of TS force winds.
Earl is expected to maintain its current intensity until it meets the trough and starts moving northeastwards. The shear from the trough will start weakening it. It will likely go by Cape Cod as a fast-moving category 2 hurricane. When it goes over Nova Scotia, it will likely still be a tropical storm.
Current Watches and Warnings
Hurricane warnings are valid for the coast from Bogue Inlet, NC to the NC/VA border. Hurricane watches in effect from the NC/VA border to Cape Henlopen, DE and from Woods Hole, MA to Sagamore Beach, MA. Tropical storm warnings and watches cover much of the coast in between the NC/VA border and Woods Hole, MA. For the latest information on watches and warnings for Earl, visit our Tropical Alerts page.
The primary threats from Earl are going to be storm surge, surf, and wind. Since Earl is forecast to gain speed after meeting the trough, flooding from rain should not be a large problem. From a broad perspective, storm surges are expected to be 3-5 feet above the tidal level, with large breaking waves at the coast. Beach erosion along the Delmarva peninsula and Outer Banks (8-10 foot breaking waves) could be significant. For more localized info, check out NWS's Hurricane Local Statements or our severe weather page.
What to do
People living in areas covered by the watches and warnings should be working through their hurricane preparation plans now. You have less than 24 hours to complete your preparations if you are in the Outer Banks and less than 48 hours in New England. Be sure to listen to local media for statements from emergency management agencies and the local NWS.
All watches and warnings for Fiona were discontinued by the 5:00 PM EDT forecast. Fiona is forecast to curve northward without affecting land and dissipate in 4 days.
Once Earl moves past Nova Scotia, this is the storm to watch in the tropical Atlantic. While it is far out at sea (more than 6 days to affect land), some computer models suggest Gaston could affect the Bahamas or the Caribbean. Statistical intensity forecast models (LGEM and SHIPS) rapidly intensify Gaston, but the dynamical models (HWRF, GFDL) do not. This storm will be worth watching over the next week or so.
Aerial Reconnaissance
The skies around Earl are going to be very busy Thursday according to the Tropical Cyclone Plan of the Day. There will be 3 flights from the Hurricane Hunters. NCAR and NOAA's Gulfstream's will be flying around Earl. HRD's WP-3D's will be flying research missions every 12 hours. NASA is sending several aircchraft as part of their Genesis and Rapid Intensification Processes (GRIP) mission. Their Global Hawk UAV will be flying for at least 24 hours. NASA's DC-8 has a six-hour mission scheduled. Finally, a WB-57 (one of the planes I supported during 2001's CRYSTAL-FACE) will also be flying high above Earl with microwave remote sensing gear. NASA has a nice list of the airborne instruments.

Next update
Dr. Jeff Masters will have an update Thursday morning. Dr. Masters, myself, Shaun Tanner, and myself will be participating in a special Hurricane Haven Thursday afternoon to discuss Earl's imminent approach. Dr. Masters will have the finalized details in his blog update.

906 - me too |
Quoting FLdewey: And as I stated earlier, some local shelters do allow pets. In Florida, many do, but you must be preregistered and must show your pet is up-to-date on vaccines. Check with your local emergency management office for pet-friendly shelters. |
Quoting RickWPB: ok, so what are the odds here? |
Also to keep in mind. We arent talking about elastic palm trees like in the gulf shores, we're talking pines and maples up the NE coast. Not down playing Katrina repectively. But people act as if she were an Andrew in strength, far from it. |
Quoting gwhite713: Katrina was a cat 3 at the time the eye crossed, but I believe I read that it is thought some areas got cat 4 winds prior to that time. |
Well after the slip up back there (my bad didn't catch it until someone pointed it to me).... Earl seems to be on track with NHC's track. Perhaps a little west. It also seems Fiona will survive and hit Bermudas, while Gaston is looking bad at the moment but as soon as he's out of that area he will have the power forecast. |
Also if you as parents decide not to leave at least find someplace safe for your children. At there Aunts,Grandparents somewhere other than with you if you stay. don't put your children in harms way just because you wanna stay. Think about your babies. sheri |
A 30 Ft record storm surge from K was the demon..A storm dont wind down Like a drunken Sailor..the Momentum takes time. K sent hurricane force winds to Hattiesburg and other places. Get a grip on reality. A Major is a Major and Size Matters.. |
Quoting gwhite713: Katrina did her worst damage through her surge. She weakened as she approached the coast, but she was so enormous and her hurricane-force winds spread over such a vast area that her surge was catastrophic. Earl is sustaining higher winds and lower pressures. But the worst surges come in the northeast quadrant of a storm, as its counter-clockwise rotation piles the water up against the fixed shoreline. We're not going to see that with Earl along the NC coast. And barring a fairly dramatic shift in its track, we're unlikely to see it in New England, either. It's the biggest threat this storm poses - if its track were to shift far enough due north to bring it ashore over southern New England, with - say - Providence or Fall River falling in its northeast quadrant, it could be truly devastating. But it's also one of the least likely outcomes. Earl is going to do his damage with wind and rain, and battering waves. And it's quite likely, even on its forecast track, to be a devastating storm. But it's no Katrina, as of yet. |
Quoting katty5: Go to my blog and to the website posted. |
Quoting katty5: Last time I checked 175mph with 902mbs ≯ 145 with 932mbs. |
In other news, have you ever seen a slower mover across the ATL recently than Gaston. I mean i've seen some go 12-13 mph but 9? |
896. FLdewey 8:40 AM CDT on September 02, 2010 Good job Dewey! |
Quoting ncstorm: It is worth remembering that powerful storms like Earl don't really have a weak side. The west side may be nominally weaker, but having seen the damage Ike caused in Katy, with his eye having made its closes approach a good 30-50 miles to our EAST, don't count on being in the good side. |
Quoting OBXgirl: Hopefully you are smart enough to get out. |
Quoting Ryuujin: you are one of the few i know that still hasnt jailbroken your pad..... |
Quoting IKE: AT landfall is the key, and she was a "3" at landfall.By most standards Katrina wasn't a monster when she made landfall, she just made landfall in a very inconvieniant place. Money says when Earl crosses the outter banks, they will see much higher winds than MS,AL or LA saw at landfall with Katrina. Katrina was bad, no doubt, but imagine if she was packing cat 4 winds sustained when she hit. Thats what the outter banks are looking at. |
Use the Ipad for the NHC Site. 8:00 AM EDT Thu Sep 2 Location: 30.1�N 74.8�W Max sustained: 145 mph Moving: NNW at 18 mph Min pressure: 932 mb |
Quoting Relix: I think Earl is really rocking right now myself. |
Quoting StormSurgeon:That word is actually an acronym. It means "ship high in transit". Many years ago, ships would cargo manure for farming. If it became wet, it would give off methane and become an explosion hazard. |
Quoting cYcLoN1C86: Maybe you haven't been looking at the models or listening to the NHC. There is no mention of Gaston moving to sea...But you are entitled to YOUR opinion! |
Quoting TheDawnAwakening: I was thinking exactly the same thing but I'm so rusty I don't know if I'm processing correctly. |
Everyone... I'm still on my iPad, so icant check the loops. Is Earl still headed NW/NNW? |
Quoting angiest: Earl is much smaller than Katrina. When Katrina was in her full glory, she took up the entire Gulf of Mexico. Trust me, I live in New Orleans and won't ever forget that satellite image on the tv screen. Earl is indeed a monster, though! Don't let his smaller size fool you! Evacuate if you anywhere near his crosshairs! |
Quoting Relix: Quoting Relix: I dunno somebody on this blog.........is pretty extreme. I read it and never thought anything. I am shocked LOL..... |
Quoting PensacolaDoug:,can you send me the address of his livestream,i can't access it on the extremeblog,because im using a droid phone,thanks-paul |
mms://wblivesurfgd.sageisland.com/eilivesurf Live web cam from Bogue Inlet Pier |
OMG! I NOTICED THE FOUL WORD NOW! Wow wow wow wow I am sorry! It was a slip up! My bad! XD! |
Quoting sammywammybamy: The summer population of the Outer Banks is 350,000. The permanent residents number about 35,000. Evacuation is no trivial thing--there is only one road off from Kitty Hawk south, and it's 2 lanes most of the way. Doubt the ferries across the sound are going to be running after a few more hours. |
Quoting ncstorm: Thanks Angiest and everyone else! I feel we are in much more than we are being promised which isnt good..just a feeling I have..I also want to say to everyone that this blog for the past couple of days has been so informative ..Props to the WU Crew!! |
i have a dog named earl. I just realized i left the weather channel on when i left. I hope he aint psycho when i get home from wondering why people keep calling his name! |
Quoting angiest: I know it wasn't you. But the political correctness really gets to me. Didn't even intend to use the word as a foul word, didn't even know what meaning it had. Remember I am not from mainland USA I am from PR so some words may not have the same meaning to me. Oh well, onwards to tropic chats. |
Quoting IKE: Yeah. Well, that was the prediction. But a hunter just measured 34 knot winds 200 nm SSW of the center. So that 120 SW estimate? Just a little bit understated. |
oh i see... |
Quoting gwhite713: |
My thoughts and prayers are with all who are in Earl's path. As a Mississippi Gulf Coast resident, I know the anxious feeling you all have. One of our local forecasters here commented on the similarity in the "look" of Earl and Katrina. We can only hope that the turn to the NE happens sooner than later. |
Quoting cYcLoN1C86: I like your 8 ball |

The real title should be "The Child That Smelt Funny" but it wouldn't fit.
Alright people here's a rather long one for you (don't complain it was orignally much longer) it's not a dark nasty one so don't expect to feel ill or uncomfortable. Yes the character as the start is Jim, I used him because I recently scrapped Fat-Pie 4 (I hated it!) and disappointed a few people so I thought I'd put him in his first Flash. Anyway all I can say is that it's long, my longest flash yet. Enjoy it.
Thanks to Afro_Ninja for the actionscript help.

Boring, and wasn't even semi-entertaining
It had no real good points if it was meant to parody governmental prohibition. Considering that the "leaders" were too stupid to know they are doing, I guess I can see some humor in there as it was meant to be shown but overall I just couldn't wait for it to be over with.
Voice acting was horribly done, even if the tone was British based. Sadly, I felt that this was the part that could have really shined right after the art style(which is the only reason this video got a 1 from me).
The art was ok, however the smashed up elderly people's faces weren't the greatest things I've seen. True they should have wrinkles, but in gray-toons the wrinkles don't need to be as harsh as you made them.
Sorry for the harsh review, but its only my opinion.

SortingPolygons-OH-VennDiagrams.pdf - Section 2: Practice
Types of Polygons
Lesson 8 of 22
Objective: Students will be able to classify two-dimensional using one attribute.
The beginning of this lesson is meant to create a little intrigue in the minds of the students as they draw upon their geometry knowledge thus far. Using the document camera I show a portion of a polygon.
Can you guess which shape I have? (It's pretty difficult when you can only see part of it.)
I ask the students to talk to their neighbor and make a prediction as to what shape the whole polygon will be. After a minute or so I get the students to end their conversations by simply announcing loudly "bring it back." I use these three magic words daily in my instruction as a signal for students to end their conversations and put their attention back on me.
Then I have students share some of their predictions. If the student did not include a why in their response I use a prompting question to get more information from them. i.e. "what evidence do you have to support that prediction." One of the focuses of Common Core is for students to be able to explain their thinking. By constantly reminding students that they need a why with a response I can come closer to aligning their thinking to the new generation of standards.
I repeat this polygon slow reveal for several shapes and listen as the students think deeper into every new reveal.
The main portion of this lesson will focus on building an understanding of how to classify shapes based on their attributes. Classifying is somewhat of a higher level task that students are not very familiar with. In the standard 5.G.4 students will have to classify shapes based on multiple attributes so in this lesson I have students start by sorting based on one attribute.
I provide each group of students with a copy of the polygons required for the sort which I found on the Illuminations website as part of an activity called Sorting Polygons. I copy the polygons on cardstock for each group because the shapes will be used in future lessons. I have the students cut out the shapes to prepare for the activity.
I also provide students with a copy of a one circle map. This type of graphic organizer will be used in this lesson to sort shapes based on one attribute.
Once students have the shapes cut out we begin the activity.
Alright, today we are going to be classifying shapes based on their attributes. Today we are going to look to divide shapes into two categories. I will give you an attribute and you will put the shapes into two groups. The shapes that have the attribute will go inside the circle and the shapes that do not have the attribute will go outside of the circle.
I will display the attribute on the board and then you and your group will discuss the attribute and decide which shapes qualify and go in the circle, and which shapes do not qualify which go outside the circle.
I go through a variety of simple attributes one by one. The attributes I choose from come from the Illuminations activity and a copy is provided in the resources. For each attribute I give groups a few minutes to decide where the shapes should be placed on their graphic organizer as they discuss with their peers. We then discuss each solution as a class and focus on correcting misconceptions.
Resources (3)
To wrap up this activity I have students complete a quick exit slip. I provide them with a half sheet of paper to write their response to the question I display on the board.
Draw and label three shapes that have at least one right angle as an attribute.

Join renowned wedding photographer Moshe Zusman as he explains his approach and shares some of his techniques for posing brides, grooms, and wedding parties. If you want your wedding portraits to possess pizzazz, character, elegance, and a natural feel, Zusman suggests that you treat each image as though it were part of a high-fashion shoot.
You can achieve the best images by posing your subjects assertively—and you can imprint ideas in your consciousness by posing your friends, spouses, or relatives in practice. Plan in advance, scout locations, use natural light whenever possible, consider what your backgrounds look like, and let your subjects know that you wish to create a "GQ" vibe in their portraits, to set the mood and bring out their best attitudes. Zusman says the best photos come when you avoid having the bride, groom, and wedding party members stand up stick-straight; he explains how to make them look beautiful, fluid, and interactive. Zusman also discusses how groups will be affected by the environment in which you are photographing them, and then how you can use that space to craft luminous, attractive group portraits.
We hope you enjoy the video, and invite you to view the wide selection of other instructional and informative videos at B&H.com.
Excellent video Moshe! This is perhaps the best tutorial you can get in less than 10 minutes, to the point and helpful for posing. http://www.jaredlawsonphotography.com

Keeping in line with the Old World Collection, the Master Chest incorporates beautiful lamb's tongue motifs, which highlight the carved frame molding. The traditionally styled bracket feet have intricately detailed carvings, giving this piece a sturdy and alluring foundation.

Set with baroque style custom hardware and a gorgeous design, this Chest will be the highlight of any dining room décor.
The Old World Master Chest Top and Base by A.R.T. Furniture Inc at Baer's Furniture in the Ft. Lauderdale, Ft. Myers, Orlando, Naples, Miami, Florida area. Product availability may vary. Contact us for the most current availability on this product.
The traditional design of Old World is inspired primarily by classic European styles of antiquity. Clearly influenced by the later Renaissance period, which featured enrichment of ornament and outline, Old World reflects the elaborate details of the French and English translation of this significant architectural movement. As Roman design standards like columns and pilasters were applied to furniture, a full complement of bases, cornices and pediments emerged, transforming cabinets, dressers and other case pieces into scaled-down architectural compositions. Cathedral cherry and exotic avodire veneers are complemented by fine herringbone inlay, with burnished edges and hand rubbed fronts giving a satiny glow to the rich pomegranate finish of Old World. Classic details of sculptural acanthus leaf carvings, a rhythmic lamb's tongue motif and baroque styled custom hardware add to the architectural splendor of this beautifully crafted collection.
The Old World collection is a great option if you are looking for Traditional furniture in the Ft. Lauderdale, Ft. Myers, Orlando, Naples, Miami, Florida area.

Footprints on the Ceiling
14 comments:
- Mestiere said...
So, O'Flaherty and Flitcher had escaped from prison four years before, found hidden loot, and had the brilliant idea of getting rich opening a kennel! O'Flaherty gets revenge for what other dogs had done four years before by setting the kennel on fire for the insurance, which they have despite being wanted fugitives. Flitcher's salve zombifies a dog and O'Flaherty immediately thinks he can get rich by charging money to audiences who will be thrilled to see a suffering dog with no "heart action". Will he lend them a stethoscope?
Why did those zombies care about the dog? Why were their skulls and hands green? Is that connected to the guy's name being O'Flaherty, you know, Irish? Now that I think of it, we were told that his name had been Cal Knowland in prison, another Irish name. Except that Flitcher calls him "O'Flaherty" in that same panel while they're still escaping. Why does the dog turn into a skeleton the second time the zombies appeared, and why did that confer it the power to walk on the ceiling? The tale doesn't even have dream logic. It's like they were making it up as they went along. I guess in a sense this tale is awesome in its incompetence. - 9/05/2012

Nothing says terrible, nerve-shredding, black horror from the dark pits of the underworld than RED POLKA-DOTTED PAJAMAS!
So the dead are afraid of the cops? - 9/05/2012
- Karswell said...
What this story REALLY needed was more panels with O'Flaherty shirtless! Am I right, ladies?
*crickets* - 9/05/2012
- Mestiere said...
There is a lot of shirtlessness on this story. Looks like O'Flaherty kept that prison exercise regime going all those four years despite being crippled by those dogs while escaping. That's why he hated dogs, because when he escaped prison he had intended to become an acrobat again(!) and now couldn't. But being "crippled" didn't seem to prevent him from walking or running. He ran down the stairs in the last panel of page 5 while carrying the dog.

So they have a salve that restores tissues to life and/or health, and they DON'T sell it to old rich people who would pay a fortune for jars of the stuff/the formula itself? They willingly go into show business thinking Nobody might recognize them?
I think that Logic, Reason, Common sense and Intelligence all got together and decided these guys were not worth bothering with.
Real Darwin award winners these two. - 9/06/2012
- JMR777 said...
Just thought of it, why didn't the skeleton crew just break the glass of the sky light and get in? Were they afraid of getting cut?
Some of these plot holes are big enough for a zombie brigage to march through.
- 9/06/2012
- Tim Whitcher said...
Alrighty then...
It looks to me like tha artwork improved in the last two pages. Maybe a different artist took over when the original one went insane from the script?? - 9/06/2012
- Mr. Cavin said...
Screwball horror? I love that panel at the end of page five, the chase down the stairs with the hilarious comedy dog tucked under the main guy's arm. I like to imagine the whole scene at kinetic, under-cranked Keystone slapstick speed. I was certain this was going to be my favorite panel in the whole story till the attacking dog skeleton shouted "arrow" at what's-his-face on page ten. So awesome! That's one for the hall of fame, I think.
- 9/09/2012
- Karswell said...
Oh god, the dog actually is saying "arrow!" ???
- 9/10/2012
- Mr. Cavin said...
He is indeed. I figure it's a necessary component of invoking his Mortal Kombat fatality: he bites the guy's skeleton out of his clothing in gouts of disappearing blood before sashaying off across the top of the screen.
- 9/10/2012
- Karswell said...
I think you mean "slashaying", Mr. C...

Come on, admit it. You all would pay good money to see "The Living Dead Trick Dog." O'Flaherty is no dummy.

BABYBEARSHOP is a mama created luxury organic body care line made up of organic, all-natural, non-toxic products for both babies and mamas. All products are not only safe for your body but safe for the earth as well.
BASICS: A while back, a mama of two decided to launch BABYBEARSHOP, a purely organic skincare line 'just right' for mothers, babies, and grown-ups alike who care about their health, the environment and having lusciously soft and healthy skin. The company only manufacture products that they feel good about using on their own skin and their children's skin. The BABYBEARSHOP line up of current products includes items such as…
- Cheeky Baby Butter and Mama Oils for chapped baby and mama skin.
- Gentle Baby Bird Soap made with organic oils of palm, lavender, coconut and aloe.
- Soy wax candles in recycled glass.
- A luscious line of organic and vegan lip balms in beautiful vintage tins.
- An outstanding collection of organic gift sets – perfectly ready to give for a baby shower or other special event.
- And more!
Make the jump to see many of this company's beautiful products and to learn more about the eco-pros of BABYBEARSHOP…
- BABYBEARSHOP's products are made in the USA.
- 100% cruelty-free, never tested on animals and member of PETA.
- All products are a minimum of 99% certified organic, have 100% natural ingredients, contain no artificial anything and are free of common allergens. There are no artificial colors or fragrances, no preservatives, no genetically-modified ingredients, and no parabens. Only the safest, highest-quality organic or wild-crafted essential oils are used. Products contain no phenoxyethanol, lactoperoxidase, no citrus seed extract and no other synthetic preservatives or additives. They contain no dairy, no nuts, no gluten, no soy, no egg, no oat, no colors, no artificial anything. Because of this, the company makes products that are perfect for children or mamas with allergies.
- BABYBEARSHOP is one of the recommended organic companies listed in the Organic Consumers Association's Coming Clean Campaign. That means that this company is not pushing fake organics.
- Skin Deep notes that BABYBEARSHOP has signed the Compact for Safe Cosmetics and that they're up-to-date on all requirements and meet minimum requirements for Full Member status. Additionally BABYBEARSHOP products all earned a score of 0 to 1, which is outstanding. Very few body care companies achieve 0-1 Skin Deep scores across the board.
- This company offers full disclosure of all ingredients on packaging and at their website. Plus they do more then simply disclose, they offer helpful consumer information about all ingredients.
- Goodies are packaged in recyclable containers.
- For every order that is placed, BABYBEARSHOP plants a tree to offset carbon emissions.
- This company is a member of Co-op America, Safecosmetics, Organic Trade Association, Healthy Child Healthy World, PETA and Trees for the Future.
Honestly, I always look VERY hard to find some sort of con when I review companies. It's my opinion that no company is perfect and if I think so I probably didn't look hard enough. That said, I looked a lot and failed to find any negative issues within this company. The only con I came up with is that you may need to be careful due to BABYBEARSHOP's use of essential oils. While I'm a big believer in essential oils, they're not safe for everyone and can cause allergic reactions. But this is more a general heads up than a con.
5 out of 5 little trees! I almost never give scores of 5 – in fact only two other scores of 5 spring to mind – Whole Green Catalog: 1000 Best Things for You and the Earth and Earth Mama Angel Baby. This puts BABYBEARSHOP in great company. If you're looking for healthy, non-toxic, green and lovely body care for you and your baby then BABYBEARSHOP is an excellent company to buy products from.

Dr. Adam Tedder
For almost 20 years, Dr. Adam Tedder has enjoyed the benefits of Chiropractic care, after being introduced to Principled Chiropractic at the age of 15. However, it was not until being introduced to the amazing power of Upper Cervical Chiropractic by his brother, did he want to become a Chiropractor himself. Returning to complete his education in 2006, Dr. Tedder has not looked back since.
Dr. Adam completed his undergraduate studies at Life University and graduated with a Doctorate of Chiropractic Degree from the prestigious Sherman College of Chiropractic in 2010. Dr. Tedder has studied under the top Upper Cervical doctors in the world, and has trained with the KCUCS (Knee Chest Upper Cervical) program, The Knee Chest Society, The Upper Cervical Academy, KALE Seminars and now teaches with the Upper Cervical Revolution. Dr. Tedder regularly attends continuing education courses focusing on biomechanics, neurology and adjusting of the upper cervical spine, pediatrics, practice management, and much more. He has traveled to Dominican Republic and San Quentin Prison for Chiropractic mission trips with Upper Cervical Chiropractic organizations and was able to share this vital health care profession with communities that would otherwise have no resources or access to quality Upper Cervical Care.
"My mission is to restore the health of and help the members of our community reach their naturally given health potential by helping them raise healthy families through specific Chiropractic."
Reaching Your Potential: How Changing Personal Habits Gives Birth to Professional Growth
We all have ideas and dreams for the life we wish to have. However, the majority of people in the world never truly realize their dreams. Why is this? Is it that only certain people are worthy of their ideal life? Is it that only a chosen few have this privilege? I say, no! In reality, most people do not know how, or don't take the correct steps to make their dreams a reality. However, each and every one us have the potential to do so!! We just have to create the proper habits and actions to create our ideal life. As birth professionals, your work is essential yet underutilized. This session will teach you how to take your professional career to the next level by creating new habits, or patterns, in your personal and professional life. This session highlights the neurological and biological effects of habits and rituals and the effect they have on personal and professional outcomes. Join us in this session in order to Reach Your Potential!
At the end of the lecture, participants will:
- Describe the neurological and biological effects of habits and rituals and the effect they have on personal and professional outcomes.
- List the steps to creating personal habits that increase productivity, enhance relationships, and keep you motivated.
- Identify how to choose the right habits to create desired lifestyle and career. Practice makes permanent, not perfect.

She is active in CAPPA as Advisor for Prenatal Pregnancy Attachment and assisted in work with the Online Greatest Pregnancy Ever Program. On the Board of APPPAH as Membership Chair, member of the Board of REACHE, Treasurer of NGHWA National Guild of Hypnotists, Washington Chapter.
Respect for the Prenate: Parenting from the Beginning of Life
Most childbirth educators have never been exposed to the importance of this field. Nursing students are aware of some of this education for the medical field knows that our babies in the womb are being impacted by the environment around the birthing mother. The Nurse-Family Program has been very successful in lowering the amount of domestic violence in the home. They follow families at risk from conception through two years after the birth. This information has not been shared with childbirth educators and we must start training educators for preconception/early pregnancy classes. Violence and lack of emotional regulation is showing up in our children due to the stress level of our families today. We must give them the tools to improve their babies' chance of healthy attachment.
At the end of the lecture, participants will:
- Explain 3 imprints that can affect the prenate which improve or impede attachment.
- Describe to birthing families the reason how their behavior impacts the psyche of the prenate.
- List 3 programs for further education in the field of Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and why this is important for all birth professionals.

Dynamic Parent Education for Today's Millennials
Today's expectant and new parents value technology; seek proven quality; and thrive on social connectedness. Evidence-based educational resources should prepare childbirth and parenting professionals to engage the learning style of Millennials.

It highlights the need for professionals to bring together timely child development information and skillful personal support in order to reduce the anxiety of Millennial mothers and fathers.
At the end of the lecture, participants will:
- Describe three values that characterize Millennial parents.
- Identify three digital resources that address the most common worries of today's parents.

VBACs are attainable, but there are emotional factors to be considered for both the families involved as well as the doctor and medical staff.

At the end of the lecture, participants will:

8 Ways to Take Your Website to the Next Level
Doulas, and educators often model behavior to teach skills that support our clients. When I became a doula I had no marketing experience at all. I sought out learning opportunities and effective ways to connect with clients online. After participating in many online courses and implementing strategies to create a webste that connects with clients I want to share what I have learned.
This session is not about creating your website. This session will make sure you have the key ingredients to connect with clients when they meet you online. This session will create meaningful changes for beginners and pros. I'll give you tips that meet you where you are on your doula/educator journey to help you connect with clients.
At the end of the lecture, participants will:
• List the reasons your website exists and what it needs to do for you.
• Define one action your visitors must take if you want to make a difference.

Abstract An in vitro autoradiographic assay was used in identifying a magnesium-dependent, non-specific binding of [ 125I] prolactin to myelinated fiber tracts in the rat brain. Frozen tissue sections were incubated for 18 h at 4°C in media which included [ 125I] prolactin alone or with a 500 fold excess of unlabelled prolactin. Magnesium in the incubation medium caused a non-specific binding of radiolabelled prolactin to the myelinated fiber tracts in the brain. In contrast, calcium did not facilitate prolactin non-specific binding to myelin. Hence, calcium should optimize the detection of specific prolactin binding sites in the brain by in vitro autoradiographic or radioreceptor assays.

Chapter 14 Chemical Equilibrium This chemical engineer is testing a process for the formation of new liquid fuels from coal and petroleum. Such methods may transform the generation of energy worldwide. Dynamic equilibrium Physical processes: solid-liquid vapor-liquid…. Chemical reactions: reactants products Dynamic equilibria are responsive to changes in the conditions. Watch animation…chemical reaction reaching equilibrium equilibrium being dynamic
Assignment for Chapter 14 14.23,22.214.171.124.14.55
Figure 14.1 In the synthesis of ammonia, the molar concentrations of N 2, H 2, and NH 3 change with time until there is no further net change and the concentrations settle into values corresponding to a mixture in which all three substances are present. N 2 (g)+3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) N 2 (g)+3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) No chemical reaction is 'complete', No chemical reaction is 'impossible'.
Figure 14.2 When we plot the rates of the forward and reverse reactions for the formation of ammonia on one graph, we can see that as the forward rate decreases, the reverse rate increases, until they are equal. At this point, the reaction is at equilibrium and the rates remain constant. Reactants Products
Figure 14.3 In an experiment showing that equilibrium is dynamic, a reaction mixture in which N 2 (pairs of blue spheres), D 2 (pairs of yellow spheres), and ND 3 have reached equilibrium is mixed with one with the same concentrations of N 2, H 2 (pairs of gray spheres), and NH 3. After some time, the concentrations of nitrogen, hydrogen, and ammonia are found to be the same, but the D atoms are distributed among the hydrogen and ammonia molecules. N 2 (g)+3D 2 (g) 2ND 3 (g) N 2 (g)+3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) N 2 (g)+2HD (g)+D 2 (g) 2NHD 2 (g) N 2 (g)+H 2 (g)+2HD(g) 2NH 2 Dg) Chemical reaction is dynamic, forward and reverse reactions taking place all the time.
Try Yourself to Define the Equilibrium Constant? aA+bB+cC+… pP+qQ+rR+… Kc=[P]+[Q]+[R]+…-[A]-[B]-[C]-…? Kc=p[P]+q[Q]+r[R]+…-a[A]-b[B]-c[C]-…? Kc=[P][Q][R]…/[A][B][C]…? Kc=pqr…[P][Q][R]…/abc…[A][B][C]…?
Equilibrium Constant aA+bB+cC+… pP+qQ+rR+… Cato Guldberg & Peter Waage (1864)
'Justification' of the Definition of Equilibrium Constant aA+bB+cC+… pP+qQ+rR+… A+A+…B+B+…+C+C+… P+P+..+Q+Q+…+R+R+…
Is the same for all experiment no matter what the initial compositions are. Example
Classroom Exercise Write the equilibrium constant for the following reactions:
Multiply a reaction: Reverse a reaction: Using smallest possible stoichiometric coefficients to write equilibrium constants
Classroom Exercise Write down the equilibrium constant of the following reaction: H 2 +D 2 2HD Suppose the equilibrium constant of above reaction at 500 K is 3.6, what is the equilibrium constant of its reverse reaction? K c =[HD] 2 /[H 2 ][D 2 ] Reverse reaction: K c -1 =0.28
Multi-Step Reactions
Equilibrium constant depends on reaction conditions
Reaction Rate and Equilibrium
Figure 14.4 The equilibrium constant for a reaction is equal to the ratio of the rate constants for the forward and reverse elementary reactions that continue in a state of dynamic equilibrium. (a) A relatively large forward rate constant means that the forward rate can match the reverse rate even though only a small amount of reactants is present. (b) Conversely, if the reverse rate constant is relatively large, then the forward and reverse rates are equal when only small amounts of products are present.
Multi-Step Reactions
Homogeneous Equilibria: All products and reactants are of the same phase. Heterogeneous Equilibria: Reacting systems with more than one phase.
Molar concentration of pure solid and liquid is a constant, independent of the amount present. It is ignored in the calculation of equilibrium constant. Ignored! Another way of understanding: the concentration of pure solid/liquid Is always 100% 1. Since 1 a =1, it does not affect K c.
Ignored! Classroom Exercise
Gaseous Equilibria
N 2 (g)+3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) T=500 K, equilibrium concentrations: [NH 3 ]=0.796 mol/L, [N 2 ]=0.305 mol/L, [H 2 ]=0.324 mol/L.
Classroom Exercise 2S(s)+3O 2 (g) 2SO 3 (g) T=300K, equilibrium concentrations: [O 2 ]=0.25 mol/L, [SO 3 ]=0.3 mol/L. calculate the equilibrium constant Kc and Kp.
Gaseous Equilibria Equilibrium constants for gaseous reactions can be written by using either molar concentrations or partial pressures.
The equilibrium constant is the ratio of the concentrations or partial pressures of the products to those of the reactants, each concentration raised to a power equal to its stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced equation. Summary of Equilibrium Constants
Using Equilibrium Constants A.The Extent of Reaction B.The Direction of Reaction C.Equilibrium Tables
The Extent of Reaction K>1000, product dominant; 0.001
Figure 14.6 The size of the equilibrium constant indicates whether the reactants (blue squares) or the products (yellow squares) are favored. Note that reactants are favored when K c is small (left), products are favored when K c is large (right), and reactants and products are in almost equal abundance when K c is close to 1 (middle). Here, for simplicity, we compare reactions with K c 10 2 and K c 10 2.
Calculating equilibrium concentration H 2 (g)+Cl 2 (g) 2HCl(g)
Classroom Exercise Suppose that the equilibrium molar concentrations of H 2 and Cl 2 at 300 K are both 1.0×10 -16 mol/L. What is the equilibrium molar concentration of HCl, given K c = 4.0×10 31 ? H 2 (g)+Cl 2 (g) 2HCl(g)
Using K to determine a partial pressure
Classroom Exercise: Using K to determine a partial pressure
The Direction of Reaction Reaction quotient:
Figure 14.7 The relative sizes of the reaction quotient Q and the equilibrium constant K indicate the direction in which a reaction mixture tends to change. The arrows point from reactants to products when Q, K (left) or from products to reactants when Q K (right). There is no tendency to change once the reaction quotient has become equal to the equilibrium constant.
Quiz At certain stage, it is measured that Will the reaction be moving to formation of more product or not? The reaction will be moving to formation of more product.
A table that shows the initial concentrations, the changes needed to reach equilibrium, and the final equilibrium compositions. Equilibrium Tables
Classroom Exercise
Le Chatelier's Principle When a stress is applied to a system in dynamic equilibrium, the equilibrium tends to adjust to minimize the effect of the stress. Henry Louis LE CHATELIER (1850-1936)
Use of Le Chatelier Principle (I) Adding a reactant or removing a product reaction tends to form products. Adding a product or removing a reactant more reactant tends to form.
Use of Le Chatelier Principle (II) Compression of a reaction mixture the reaction that reduces the number of gas-phase molecules. Increasing by introducing an inert gas no effect on the equilibrium!
Commercial ammonia synthesis vessel
Introducing inert gas (yellow) has no effect on the equilibrium composition. More generally, introducing anything that does not react with any product and reactant of a reaction would not change the equilibrium composition of the reaction. (A catalyst can increase reaction rate but not equilibrium constant.)
Cheating equilibrium (1)
Cheating equilibrium (2)
Use of Le Chatelier Principle (III) Raising the temperature of an exothermic reaction reaction tends to form more reactants. Raising the temperature of an endothermic reaction reaction tends to form more products.
(a) Endothermic reaction (b) Exothermic reaction
Radar image of Venus: high partial pressure of carbon dioxide
Catalysts A catalyst can increase the rate of a chemical reaction. A catalyst has no effect on the equilibrium composition of a reaction mixture.

Race Report: WFYRC Beach Series- Race 4 (Clearwater Beach, Florida)
This past Friday was the final race in the summer beach race series I did. This one was very different from the other two races in the series that I did, thanks to a late June tropical storm that resulted in record levels of beach erosion that really resculpted the look of Clearwater Beach. This time, the race was a bit of an obstacle course- there were easily a half dozen times where the runners had to cross up to ankle deep trenches of water where the surf had encroached on the beach for many, many more feet than it used to. My shoes and socks were soaked by the time I finished! There was also a huge amount of seaweed carpeting the beach, it made for a wet, slippery, uneven running surface. I wore my new "Sweat Pink" tank, check out the link to the right of this blog entry for more information about the Sweat Pink movement to get women active. My son fixed my headphones so they stayed in place this time, but my Nike+ GPS program didn't work at all so the headphones didn't really serve their purpose for this race. I'm afraid my iPhone is almost ready to give up the ghost, lots of things are getting wonky on it. I finished in 36:50, which is a few seconds faster than my time in race #1- but that didn't involve all the water obstacles, so I'm calling this one an even better time. :) My next race is my first official 10K, the Morton Plant Hospital Prostate Cancer Awareness 5K and 10K race. That race is special to me because it was my very first race, two years ago (with a 5K time of 49 minutes, which I've now dropped down to 33 to 35 minutes for road races) and my Dad is a prostate cancer survivor of over 10 years so I enjoy doing a run that supports that cause. The race is just over a month away, I'm excited to conquer a new distance!
