recognition of this principle has sometimes resulted in designing retaining concrete
walls on the principle illustrated in Fig. 69, which is somewhat similar to a.
section of an arch set on end. Such curved outlines, of course, are more
expensive, and are sometimes inconvenient, and for that reason are but seldom
adopted. A detail which is frequently adopted in the design of retaining concrete
walls is to use what is virtually a batter to the rear face of the concrete
wall, but to accomplish this by a series of steps on the rear of the concrete
wall. This not only permits the use of rectangular concrete blocks of stone and
the employment of vertical joints, but also adds considerably to the stability
of the concrete wall, since the vertical pressure of the earth on the horizontal
steps adds considerably to the resistance to overturning. In Fig. 70 is shown a
design for a retaining concrete wall made to support a railway embankment in a
location where the natural surface was so steep that the embankment would not
readily obtain sufficient support. Although this use of a retaining concrete
wall is somewhat special, the general outline of the design not only conforms
to the standards on that railroad, but represents good practice and is an
illustration of many of the points referred to above. It should be noted that
in this case the total width of the base of the concrete wall is nearly
one-half the height. The outline design of a long concrete bridge which
requires several spans, involves many considerations: (1) if the river is
navigable, at least one deep and wide channel must be left for navigation. The
placing of concrete piers, the clear height of the spans above high water, and
the general plans of all concrete bridges over navigable rivers, is subject to
the approval of the United States Government. (2) A long concrete bridge always
requires a solution of the general question of few concrete piers and long
spans, or more concrete piers and shorter spans. No general solution of the
question is possible, since it depends on the required clear height of the
spans above the water, on the required depth below the water for a suitable concrete
foundation, and on several other conditions (such as swift current, etc.) which
would influence the relative cost of additional concrete piers or longer spans.
Each case must be decided according to the particular circumstances of the
case. (3) Even the general location of the line of the concrete bridge is often
determined by a careful comparison, not only of several plans for a given
crossing, but even a comparison of the plans for several locations. The
requirements for the concrete bridge seats for the ends of the two spans
resting on a concrete pier are usually such that a concrete pier with a top as
large as thus required, and with a proper batter to the faces, will have all
the strength necessary for the external forces acting on the concrete pier. For
example, the channel concrete pier of one of the large railroad concrete bridges
crossing the Mississippi River was capped by a course of stonework 14 feet wide
and 29 feet long, besides two semicircles with a radius of 7 feet. The footing
of this concrete pier was 30 feet wide by 70 feet long, and the total height
from subsoil to top was about 170 feet. This concrete pier, of course, was
unusually large. For trusses of shorter span, the concrete bridge seats are
correspondingly smaller. The elements which affect stability are so easily
computed that it is always proper, as a matter of precaution, to test every concrete
pier designed to fulfill the other usual requirements to see whether it is
certainly safe against certain possible methods of failure. This is especially
true when the concrete piers are unusually high. The requirements for
supporting the truss are, fortunately, just such as give the concrete pier the
most favorable formation so that it offers the least obstruction to the flow of
the current in the river.

Noah in Ancient Greek Art
If youve read Athena and Kain: The True Meaning of Greek
Myth and/or The Parthenon Code: Mankinds History in
Marble, youre in for a further treat. We go deeper into
the true identity of Athena, identifying the real woman she representsthe
one who came through the Flood on the ark as Hams wife. It sounds
fantastic, but just wait and see. In the early post-Flood world, this
woman was so influential in promoting the resurgence of the way of Kain
(Cain) that every Mediterranean and Mid-eastern culture idolized her,
often using different names for different aspects and achievements of
this goddess.
If you havent yet read the above-mentioned books, youre in for a big surprise in this one. What todays scholars call ancient myth is not myth at all, but rather the history of the human race expressed from the standpoint of the way of Kain. This book is written in such a way that you should be able to pick up and understand this crucial thread very quickly. In most cases, the ancient art speaks for itself. It cant hurt to refamiliarize yourself with the first eleven chapters of Genesis.
As the narrative progresses, youll see that Noah was not some vague figure remembered by a few maverick Greek artists. Greek vase-artists and sculptors actually defined the rapid growth and development of their contrary religious outlook in direct relation to Noah and his loss of authority. Greek artists portrayed the victory of their man-centered idolatrous religion as the simultaneous defeat of Noah and his Yahweh-believing children. The twelve labors of Herakles sculpted on the temple of Zeus at Olympia (Section III), in and of themselves, chronicled and celebrated mankinds successful rebellion against Noah and his God after the Flood.
The most important part of this book may be Section IV which explains why the scholarly world remains blind to the obvious and simple historical truths expressed in ancient art. After reading it, you will most likely marvel along with the author and the apostle Paul: Does not God make stupid the wisdom of this world? (I Corinthians 1:20).
The book includes over 130 illustrations, including computer reconstructions of ancient sculptures by Holmes Bryant. You will understand the meaning of ancient Greek art once you've read this book. It is so simple. NOAH in ANCIENT GREEK ART is a true revelation, an uncovering of the most significant magnitude. Greek vase-paintings and sculptures have been catalogued and examined by the academics for the last two or three centuries. Thanks to Mr. Johnson's groundbreaking work, we can now understand what our Greek ancestors were trying to tell us about themselves 2400 years ago.

4 Ways You Can Improve Your Business Security
Every business, from a small corner store to an international corporation, can become a target for fraud and theft. Therefore, it is incredibly important for every business to take the proper steps towards improving the security of their business.
Now there are a few different forms of security to consider. There is the obvious protection of materials and products. For this, the security measures you would need to implement involve things like installing surveillance cameras, a proper lock and security system and perhaps even hiring security guards.
Many people tend to overlook their company's data security, something that, if not protected properly, could lead to even bigger failures and consequences. Here are some ways you can improve the data security of your business.
Set up a data security plan
Start by coming up with a system of data collection, storage, usage, dissemination and destruction. The information of your customers is just as important as the information from your business, so don't wait for a breach in security to come up with a plan.
Start by making sure each employee has a secure and customised username and log in to access the computers at work. If possible, limit the amount of access to external websites that might have a virus that is waiting to get into your network. Establish firewalls so that networks that aren't related to your business aren't allowed to communicate within the firewall.
You can also keep all your financial records and transactions on one computer that can only access bank websites or open recordkeeping applications. Keep this computer accountable by giving access to one or two individuals.
Establish security breach protocols
In the event of a security breach, your company should have policies and protocols set up that every employee knows how to follow. There should be a strict set of guidelines that changes as your company evolves, but that everyone must follow.
Your employees must be trained and educated about the security risks and how to avoid them. They must be aware of things like backing up data, alerting IT to potential threats, using good passwords and knowing what to do if anything digitally unexpected comes up.
Come up with a data storage policy
There should be a company-wide data storage policy in place that outlines what is kept and what is disposed of. The more you store, the more risk you take, so you must only store data that is absolutely essential. Anything you do store should be stored securely. If you have paper documents or hard media, secure lockable bins will ensure your privacy until you destroy the documents.
Ensure regular document destruction
Anything that you do not need to store should be disposed of in a secure manner. You can make a deal with confidential document destruction companies to regularly pick up and shred your sensitive information; everything from e-waste to paper documents. On-site, mobile shredders are the most secure as they do not allow any of your materials to leave your property in a readable format, and you have option of watching to make sure everything is disposed of properly.
ShredLock provides a range of scheduled and on-call, on-site confidential document destruction services. If you are interested in greater data security, our team is happy to talk to you.

Roller Derby will let you leap over tall buildings in a single bound, shoot fire from your eyes and give you the ability to read minds! Just kidding, but it will do some pretty amazing things for you.
It will make you want to push yourself harder than you ever have before and do things that you never thought you were capable of. Another added bonus? Derby gives you a great butt. Seriously!
If you've ever seen a roller derby bout then you already know how physical the sport is. In order to keep up you've got to practice, practice and practice some more. I promise you at some point in all that practicing (and eventually playing) you will realize it changed you. You might skate so hard you want to puke.. but you don't and instead you keep pushing on. You might jump through the air like a nimble gazelle (see above). You might block a really good skater so well that they give you a high five afterwards! Seriously, we do that in derby. We're a weird bunch.
Which brings me to another great side effect of playing this sport- the instant network of skaters that will become your teammates, and quite often, your friends. Derby is everywhere- there are hundreds of derby leagues from all over the world, so if you travel or move you've got an instant connection almost anywhere you go.
It's going to take a lot of work. It will take up a lot of your time. It will give you confidence, an instant derby network AND a great butt! If you're still reading and want to give this crazy derby thing a go, keep reading.
Read the requirements and what we test on here and if you think you'd like to do this but need to get your feet under you first there are details on open practices you can join for a small fee. There are a lot of people that play derby that had no previous skating experience, so don't be deterred if you aren't a pro on skates yet!
If you think you are ready for tryouts then join us at Jellybeans in Wakefield Saturday August 31st from 8-10 a.m. and show us what you've got!
Does all this sound like fun but you really don't want to skate? We are always in need (and forever grateful to) Non Skating Officials (NSO's) and our volunteers. They are the ones that keep score, keep track of penalties and help with all the other important things that go into running our league. No experience necessary!
If you would like more information please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com

I was soooo excited to see this awesome deal this morning!!
Reach Magazine, which is quite familiar all over the place has launched a site similar to Groupon. Essentially, you can get a drastically reduced price for various establishments. The offers are only valid for one day. So, this deal ends tonight at 11:59p.
Today's Big Deal is a Lazer Kraze Package. You will receive 4 Single Missions for $16 (which is a $32 value). There are a few limitations (i.e., cannot use it for large groups or birthday parties). Unfortunately, the limit is only 1 per person too.
We had our son's birthday party at Lazer Kraze a few years ago. The kids had a total blast (and I think the adults may have enjoyed themselves a bit too (=:. I am totally bummed that you can only purchase one because this is a great price to enjoy fun with the kids – I would have purchased several. I am getting one at least.
Susan, Ginger, Angie, other local friends, definitely pick one up too! If the boys don't use them, our husbands will enjoy themselves immensely :)

As has been the practice for the past several years, we have scheduled two student early dismissal days in the academic calendar on the day preceding a holiday vacation (Thanksgiving and Winter Break). Our practice has been to require professional staff to fulfill six (6) hours of approved replacement time during the summer months. Successful completion of these hours provides staff the opportunity to have the two aforementioned days as an early dismissal.
Staff will be provided the six (6) hours of replacement time to use at their own professional discretion for professional growth opportunities, curriculum writing, classroom preparation, etc. All hours must be recorded between June 12, 2017 and August 22, 2017 to receive release time during the half-days preceding Thanksgiving and Winter breaks.
Replacement hours must be recorded in MLP with the Replacement Hours form.
A few points for clarification for the 2017-18 school year:
Replacement hours data will only be pulled from MLP. During our transition to MLP last year, exceptions were made to the submission process, but hours will not be pulled from these systems moving forward.
Replacement hours must be entered in 3 or 6 hour segments. If your work was done in single hours, simply select 3 or 6 from the pull down menu and add the dates and times of your work to the notes section.
If you are registering for a professional development session using MLP, you must also complete the replacement hours form in order to receive replacement hour credit.
Time can not be double-dipped. If you are getting paid for an activity (ex. curriculum writing), this can not count for replacement hours. If you are working on a project for which you are not being paid, you need to complete the Replacement Hours form in MLP in order to receive credit.
Replacement hour timelines for new hires will be determined by the employment date.
Please contact your principal/supervisor, WEA building representative, or the Assistant Superintendent with any questions.

Dating Russian Women 4 - Part 4 of How to overcome the 7 hurdles in Russian relationships!
The major challenge of hurdle number 4 is to determine from initial correspondence, the following:
First of all, be aware that everyone (sooner or later) will come across someone who is not genuine about looking for a husband abroad. Maybe the girl is just looking around to see what foreign men are like, or maybe she is bored and simply playing games by writing to men. The worst possibility is that you will come across someone who is a scammer. Certainly, if you use dating sites other than the reputable ones, your chances of meeting a scammer online are GREATLY increased.(Click here to find out how to avoid being scammed.)
Assuming that you are corresponding with a Russian woman who is genuine (and the overwhelming majority of girls you will meet online ARE genuine), the initial correspondence period is an opportunity for both of you to get to know each other better and to determine if you are interested in taking your relationship further.
After a few letters, it should be pretty clear to you whether this girl is a real possibility for you. Remember back at hurdle number three where you created your list of qualities you're looking for? Well, keep this in mind always when you're corresponding with someone, and again follow your instincts to determine if you are really interested or not.

Shock and Awe Advertising
Mark Twain
Mark Twain is quoted as saying, "Many a small thing has been made large by the right kind of advertising."
I Love Lucy
When Television Had Censors
Those of us who are old enough will recall how Desi and Lucy and Rob and Mary Tyler Moore slept in separate beds. In those days, television censors were a busy breed, vigilantly protecting the public from anything the 'moral police' deemed unsavory. When "I Dream of Genie" first aired in September 1965 Barbara Eden was prohibited from showing her bare belly while donning the genie costume. However, gradually things began to change on TV not only with the shows, but the types of products advertised.
Where Do Babies Come From
As a child, I was uncomfortable with many of the National Geographic shows, especially when they filmed topless native tribes and my dad would commence clearing his throat. I either left the room or put my head down. I was a naïve kid back in the 1950s. For crying out loud, I was 10 years old and still thought babies came from storks until my uncle's wife had a child. I happened to see her nursing her newborn and I ran from the room with a face as red as a beet.
Crossing Boundaries in Advertising
Adult Themed Commercials
Today we are hit with a barrage of adult themed commercials. In the 1980s we began seeing ads for feminine hygiene products with women riding horses, jogging, going to the beach and playing sports. In the late 1990s, Viagra was introduced to the advertising world with their little blue pill…the miracle drug…for male erectile dysfunction. Hot on their heels the onslaught of ads for sexual enhancement creams and gels and, even more, commercials for urinary incontinence, gas, and adult diapers. In other words, all of the things we would never want to discuss in public are now thrown at us, our children and everyone else who has a television on during breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Graphic Images are a Turnoff
Major news networks, reputable newspapers, and magazines with journalistic scruples all refuse to show graphic videos or photos of torture, death by starvation, horrific autopsies, body parts or the ravages of animal cruelty. Although we are all aware that these things do occur, we don't want our eyes or ears assaulted with the realism these photos, videos and personal stories provide.
No Place Like Home
Arms of an Angel
Several years ago we were lured into a beautiful song, softly flowing over the airwaves. The medley and words were comforting and warm. Then we looked up at the screen in front of us. For you see, Sarah McLachlan was singing, "In the Arms of an Angel." It was a song written by Ms. McLachlan and inspired by the heroine overdose of the keyboardist with the group, "Smashing Pumpkins." Sarah released "Angel" in 1997 and since 2007, it has been used by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) to bring awareness and fundraise for sheltered dogs and cats. The ad has raised millions of dollars, but as an animal lover, I cannot look at dogs and cats with missing eyes or sad faces behind stark cages. Those images sadden and sicken me. All these years later and still I haven't watched the entire commercial.
Marlboro Man
James Dean, Lucky Strikes and T-shirts
Today, nearly everyone above the age of 5 knows that smoking cigarettes are bad. That wasn't always the case, though. People puffed away on unfiltered Lucky Strikes, Chesterfields and Raleigh's, to name a few. If we watched a movie or television show we experienced the glamor, machismo and even sophistication of smoking. Boys wanted to be like James Dean and fold a pack of smokes up into the short sleeve of our T-shirts because it was, "Cool man." Just as we started to accept that the Marlboro Man was the epitome of rugged manhood, the United States Surgeon General Luther Terry began bursting our bubbles when in 1964 he reported cigarette smoking was linked to cancer and heart disease.
Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has taken on the role of exhaling a constant toxic ad campaign with the express purpose to shock smokers with graphic imagery and commentary never before shown, all in an effort to scare people into quitting smoking. Beginning in 2012 the CDC dropped napalm on us with a $54 million shock and awe campaign designed to burn our minds with the horrors of smoking via public service announcements. We've had our eyes and ears assaulted by former smokers speaking with a voice-box, attempting to shave around a hole in the stoma due to their throat being removed because of cancer and showing amputated toes.
Recently the anti-smoking commercials are airing either 5 minutes before the hour or 25 minutes after the hour. It is a ploy being utilized knowing that viewers want to see the ending of the shows they have been watching. I suppose in the world of public relations timing is everything. However, for me, I find these advertisements visually disturbing and consequently, I turn the channel each and every time they pop up on TV. I've actually gotten quite good at timing them so I don't miss the ending of the programs I've been watching.
Smoke, Smoke, Smoke That Cigarette - Commander Cody
Freedom of Choice
I have also learned a new word in the process of being buried under an avalanche of scare and fear advertising. When people feel their freedoms of choice are being taken away they are negatively impacted with a feeling referred to as reactance. This results in people doing exactly the opposite of what the messenger wanted them to do. In other words, when inundated with the drumbeat of pushing one agenda, some will act contrary, simply to prove they are in charge of their own free will.
Time to Eat
Rest assured, if you watch television long enough you will be subjected to the heartbreak of psoriasis, toenail fungus, irritable bowel syndrome, shingles, bed wetting, urinary incontinence, before and after photos of obese people and of course, the removal of unsightly back hair. You will have to excuse me for now while I fix my dinner plate and settle in for some wholesome TV entertainment.
Advertising Run Amok
Is Advertising too graphic?
Written By: Dennis L. Page
Agree that some advertising goes too far. On the other hand, I think sometimes adults, especially parents, make some things too mysterious, and end up making the situation worse as a result.
My daughter knew there was no stork when she was just 3 years old. I didn't want her to go through the instruction that this was dirty and that was dirty, etc. It has been proven to inhibit normal responses in both sexes. I let her know that if it was dirty a shower would correct that situation pretty quick in most cases. God created sex, not to be abused like it so often is, but not to shame people with either.
Yes, I think some advertisements go too far and I really don't miss not having a TV. :)
And I would be delighted if things like that were NEVER aired!
(Apologies for not being grammatically correct in my comment - I started with "And", and for "yelling", but this is one of many subjects about which I am passionate.
I fear that history will show this present era to be preoccupied with things of a sexual nature. That mindset has brought many a nation to its knees. If things do not change, we are leaving behind a legacy of licentiousness.
I agree, Dennis. I am so sad, that the generation being raised today is at the receiving end of the dregs of morality. Is it any wonder why there are so many social problems in our country?
Years ago, when I was still raising my "tribe", I felt is was my mission to clean up our community. Thankfully, my efforts were successful, even to the point of helping change some things that were being being sponsored by one of the three largest hospitals in our city. It made front-page news.
What has always bothered me the most, is that it is extremely difficult to get other people to join the fight for decency in programming and advertising. I have attempted, over the years, to elicit response and support from others who are also repulsed by the current fare. It is almost impossible.
Oh, they were swift to applaud me, when the "clean-up" was successful, but they were not interested in being in the vanguard of the fight.
Great hub!
I am with you, Dennis, 100%. Until I remarried, over 6 years ago after being a widow for over 10 years, I did not realize how awful and crude television advertising had become. I did not have cable TV, by choice, and was not interested in watching soap operas, game shows, etc.
Now, the television is on constantly in our home. My husband uses it for "background noise". I detest it. I cannot imagine raising my children with those horrific commercials playing in the background. They are embarrassing to me, even at MY age.
He is usually on the History channel, or Discovery, or the movie channels, only. Nonetheless, we are subjected to crude, inappropriate advertisements.
Our nation has taken a swan dive into smut, in my opinion.
It's an interesting balance between privacy and progress. What's so conservative it's naïve and close-minded, what's too progressive it's provocative and graphic? There used to be a bigger rift even between broadcast vs. cable content. Now it's a question of how the viewer responds to the advertising. Thanks for sharing. Critical consumption, especially of advertising, is important.
Where do I begin? How do you explain to your three or four year old what Viagra is? I too am broken hearted by those terrible animal abuse commercials. Maybe I'm missing their impact but they're awful as are the ones of people dying of cancer.
I understand the reasoning but do they really think the audience they want to reach is watching? Its like preaching to the choir.
As for the "pill" parade, if the commercial doesn't irritate you, the list of possible side effects will scare you into not taking that particular medication.
Timely, well done hub!
Voted up, useful, and interesting.

We had a great time with the grandkids. Lots to do and even a bar for some adult beverages. We have been there several times and always had a great experience. The grandkids want to go back today but it was closed. DARN.
Michael Slimko
Bob Sears
Just got back from a 6 hour day at Monsoon Lagoon. $17.50 for a Mon-Thur deal. Unlimited go karts, mini golf, water park and more. The facility was clean. My kids had a blast. We spent most of our time on the go karts but we tried everything and were quite pleased with what we got for the money. We will have to stop again if we are in the area. Staff was nice also.
Mike Flaherty
This review is real, and I just got back from a 7 hour day there today. Here are my observations:-Parking is free-Facilities are clean, and well maintained.-The arcade area could use some new equipment, and a machine or two wasn't in service.-The price $16, including go-karts and putt putt…what can I say? Legit.-The bathrooms/changing area/showers were clean, and well maintained.-The lockers they rent to you are about as big as a shoe box…leave your stuff in the trunk.-The main water park area with the bucket and the slides were well maintained, with only a few paint chips missing. The water was a good temperature, and was very clean. The water did not smell excessively of chlorine, nor burn my eyes.-The tiki bar area is a little deeper (3'6″) and the area is the designated smoking area, so it smelled like smoke, so I stayed away from the area. I do know that area's water is much warmer than the rest of the water.-The BIG water slides were sturdy, clean, and what you would expect. The green slide is actually quite thrilling…reaching probably 10-15 MPH. The yellow slide is much slower, and better for kids over 48″.-The lazy river was nice, what you would expect. The tubes were good quality, and maybe a year or two old. They have double rafts for taking younger kids in (they have a floor in the hole).-The go-karts were great, all ran very well, staff was doing a good job making sure the little (and big too, actually…lol) Dale Earnhardt's weren't constantly crashing everybody. The two seater cars are much faster than the single seaters….seatbelts in both worked well, and were not twisted or anything.-We didn't do the putt-putt…-The only disappointment was the bumper boats…although, being 28 may not be who those are targeted for….lol. 3 boats were inoperable due to bad solenoids.-The food court had a decent selection of food, and at really great prices considering you are in a captive environment. $6.00 for a grilled chicken sandwich with trimmings, a bag of chips, and a 24oz drink. $6.50 for a cheeseburger, $5.00 for a kids meal…-IN CONCLUSION:An incredible bargain for the price. Soak City is a lot better, but is also JAM PACKED daily, and costs almost triple the price. Not to mention, $17.00 parking at Cedar Point. We ABSOLUTELY will be going back, and very soon at that.
Nicole Holland
I'm taking a friend there for her birthday does anyone suggest extra things to bring since I've never been there before.
Ryan Cook
Kids enjoyed it. Inside facilities and restrooms were horribly dirty.

What are Vulnerable User Laws?Vulnerable user laws are sometimes referred to as vulnerable roadway user provisions. These types of legislation provide law enforcement and prosecutors with an increased set of penalties that replace what's missing between basic traffic and more serious crimes. These laws establish a sort of middle ground between "no penalty" and "vehicular manslaughter." If you cause serious injury or kill another person while violating a traffic law or while recklessly operating a motor vehicle, these laws go into effect.
Examples of PenaltiesVulnerable user laws enact stricter penalties for injuring someone on foot or on a bicycle. The hope is that police and prosecutors will be more likely to charge reckless drivers with options less severe than manslaughter but more severe than nothing. Some examples of these penalties include:
- More substantial fines – those in Oregon can be up to $12,500
- Suspended license
- Community Service
- Requirement of attending a traffic course
- Gross Misdemeanor charge on your record
Where Are Vulnerable User Laws In Place?Vulnerable Road User Protection Laws have been put into place in at least nine states. These include:
- Nevada
- Tennessee
- Washington
- Oregon
- Illinois
- Maryland
- Delaware
- New York
- Hawaii

Be Prepared for University
So after waiting months for your results, your fate has finally been revealed – you're going to university in September! To make sure you get to make the most of the fun first few weeks of your freshers title as you settle in, here's some advice on what to pack, what to expect during freshers week and what to be prepared for as a newbie!
What to Pack
Unfortunately, before the fun can begin you will have to spend the little time you have left at home making lists and packing what you are taking with you. To make things easier, here's a list of the bare essentials that you may forget whilst being carried away packing the outfits that will make you look the coolest during Freshers week:
-Cutlery including tongs and a spatula
-Cups and Glasses
-Frying Pan
-Baking Tray
-Storage Boxes
Do not worry about any appliances before you move in just in case other people have brought things: one shared kitchen only really needs one toaster, not six!
Important documents
-Driver's Licence
-National Insurance Card
-Acceptance Letter
-Accommodation Paperwork
-Student Finance Letter
Without the correct paperwork you will not be able to pick up your accommodation keys and without identification, your acceptance letter and student finance letter, you won't be able to activate your student loan! This is essential for funding your studies and should be your priority once moved in.
-Folder Dividers
You are, after all, going to university to study so make sure you have enough pads and pens for each of the modules you have registered for to make studying easy and to keep your notes organised ready to use for any essays or exams. You will also need your laptop as essays are required to be typed – and don't forget to back your work up on a USB!
-Duvet and Pillow
-Alarm Clock
-Laundry Basket and separate bag (for wet laundry from the launderette!)
-Door Stop
Much like your kitchen utensils, you will keep the things you buy for your bedroom for each year of study, so invest for the future – buy a double duvet not just to keep you warm over the winter but because you will most probably have a double bed in your houses when a second and third year.
Of course, these are but the essentials – your to-pack is list is most probably reeling with lots of other fun things, which should include a fun onesie and a fancy dress outfit: I guarantee you will need both if you plan to join a society.

GARY Megson describes his scathing criticism of some of his players at Exeter as possibly the most "negative" interview he has ever given.
The Owls manager makes no apologies for telling how he saw it, and he is looking for a response from the team tonight.
"Some people say you should be positive, you shouldn't say those things, but I can't be like that," he says.
"I've always said what I think. I can't be like these politicians and find any shining light.
"I listen to some managers, especially in the Premier League, in all sorts of trouble and talking about a great corner they have won after four minutes, when they've been beaten.
"I always talk honestly. It's a challenge as well to the players to up their game."
Megson expects stiff resistance from Stevenage: "They've had a terrific season so far. They gave us a real good hiding (5-1). That was a bit of a watershed for us; from that point we were fantastic.
"Some of the things we are doing at the moment aren't what I would have expected five or six weeks ago. We need to keep moving forward.
"Stevenage are fit, powerful and organised; they've also got some good technicians."
Megson does not want the on-form Jermaine Johnson to be the Owls' only big threat: "He's playing really well. I felt on Saturday that was the only place where penetration was going to come from. That's something we need to change, drastically and quickly.
"The results aren't as strong as they were but standards aren't that bad: we're second. I want our standards to be even higher."
Stevenage manager Gary Smith was appointed three weeks ago. Three postponements have meant that a 1-0 FA Cup win against Notts County has been his only game in charge so far. He replaced Graham Westley, who joined Preston.

HOTEL group Marriott International plans to open seven Scottish hotels in the next four years.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has welcomed the plan and will meet senior staff from the group on her visit to New York.
The new hotels, which include the W Edinburgh at the St James scheme and three Moxy hotels, will boost the group's room rate in Scotland by 75 per cent.
Loading article content
Speaking ahead of the visit, the First Minister said: "Despite the uncertainty brought about by Brexit, Scotland's economy and tourism sectors remain strong and I am delighted that big businesses like Marriott International are choosing to show their confidence by investing here.
"Scotland's performance in hotel markets is exceptionally strong, with latest figures showing that we are outperforming 11 of the main 12 European hotel markets."
Marriott's Kevin Montano said: "We remain optimistic for the future growth of our company and hospitality overall in Scotland."

You are on a low-carb diet, but you still want to go to the gym and put your body through a strenuous workout. It's hard when your body is already starved of carbohydrates
You need:. .
Much rest and sleep.
Sugarfree energy drinks.
It is best to start training early in the morning, before you expend your energy on the rest of the day. Try to have a quick breakfast and head to the gym.
Have plenty of water available. When you begin to feel weak, have a few sips to cool down.
You probably will not be able to get more than 20-30 minutes of a good and intense exercise. Do not push yourself beyond this limit. Trust me, it is not beneficial to the body and muscles.
Come back at night, if you feel that you need to continue or complete the workout. Try not to do this sooner than 4 hours or later than 8 hours after your first workout.
As always have plenty of water available and plenty of rest afterward. Aid yourself with a sugarfree energy drink. Redbulls or Rockstars are good options.
Have an uninterrupted good night's sleep. Use earplugs if you know there is construction around your area. Your body needs to relax after all that has gone through.
Tips and Warnings
Try to exercise at least three times a week for maximum results.
Stay away from sugary products as much as possible.
Do not push yourself when you feel dizzy. Your body needs to rest at that time.

One of the major criticisms of the failed Republican plans to repeal and replace Obamacare came as a result of predictions by the Congressional Budget Office that millions of Americans would lose their insurance of the plans were adopted. The figures from this supposedly non-partisan source were questionable at best since they kept changing and the CBO predictions about the original Obamacare had been completely wrong.
The fact is that the highly unpopular mandate under Obamacare that requires Americans to get health insurance or pay a fine has resulted in 6.5 million Americans paying the fine. The projected number of Americans that would supposedly lose their insurance under the Republican plan includes those people plus an estimated 10 million more people who would choose not to have insurance at all.

From the Field Trip website:
Old Pasadena, California
Take a Field Trip with us as we explore the city that gave us the Mars Rover Landing, Scientology, Jackie Robinson, the Occult of Jack Parsons, and the Tournament of Roses - Pasadena, California.
Just north of Los Angeles, the picturesque Southern California city of Pasadena is nestled at the base of the San Gabriel mountains. For decades, train tracks criss-crossed the city allowing layman and celebrity alike to escape the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles for a day of shopping, hiking, and entertainment.
Beyond this beauty, though, there's always been a darker, magical, more rebellious side of Pasadena: a place where religion, magic, and rocket science collided; a haven for free thinkers, outcasts, and eccentrics; a stomping ground for the likes of Albert Einstein, Jack Parsons, Julia Child, and Tennessee Williams, and a home for millionaires like William Wrigley Jr. and Adolphus Busch. Pasadena's landscapes have also stood in for all parts of the world in legendary Hollywood movies and television shows such as Gone With the Wind, Back to the Future, Mad Men, Parks and Recreation, and The Sting.
Field Trip Day is an afternoon of local discovery, challenges, one-day-only opportunities, and hidden surprises. Armed with the Field Trip app and your wits, an afternoon's adventure will reveal Pasadena's secrets - from rocket launches to peanut butter soda, from the man who broke baseball's color barrier to the man who revolutionized chewing gum, from auditioning for the role of Stanley in "Streetcar Named Desire" to learning the truth about a religious cult... explore Pasadena like never before.
Brought to you by Google's Niantic Labs! The same mysterious group that runs Ingress. You can register for the event and get your FREE TICKETS at Google Field Trip's page here.
I've been a fan of Niantic Labs for a while now. For those of you that participate in our Ingress events, the Field Trip app is capable of notifying you of new portals. From what I've gathered, Niantic really likes to develop new ways of discovering hidden gems that have some sort of social, historical, and/or artistic value. Definitely recommend!

Exercises include: core conditioning, functional training, short distance running (less than one mile), muscular strength, jumping rope, circuit training, hiking, obstacle courses, PAR course, Pilates mat exercises, surprises and more! This technique was developed by fitness expert John Gaetano.
Camps are held outdoors. Directions will be given at your first assessment. On select days, campers may travel a short distance away from the "base camp" for a fun hike day. You will receive your schedule prior to camp.
What is a typical day like at camp?
That's difficult to say since each day weather is unique in El Paso while intentionally different to alleviate boredom. You can expect exercises including Pilates, Sport Yoga, Strength Yoga, some light running, sprinting, body weight training, obstacle courses, core training and jumping rope each week. On special days, you will go hiking. It's always an adventure, and you'll always have fun! We teach you a great deal about proper form and "core stability." You will enjoy a unique fitness experience from the top trainers in the industry and the creator of the boot camp craze which has swept the nation.
How often will we meet?
Your membership includes unlimited sessions upon availability but we recommend no more than three times weekly, every other day to maximize recovery. You will also be credited $10 per month while an active member to join EP Fintess. We want you to conduct an intelligent weight lifting program as well on your own or join www.modeltrainers.com based in El Paso, Tx.
What do I get when I sign up?
Besides your camp sessions, you get a pre and post camp evaluation, and a free T-shirt, fat test, Measurements, weighed, and a custom diet plan.
The Pre-Camp Evaluation includes the following:
1. We will give you an introduction to Eco Fitness Camps and answer any questions you may have. We will also review your medical history.
2. We will take a few simple measurements to see where you are prior to beginning camp. The actual measurements (number of inches) don't matter. We want to know how much you improve during the camp. It's strictly for a post-camp comparison. These numbers and all other information will be held in the strictest confidence.
3. We will record your weight and measure your body fat percentage. Again, the numbers don't matter. We just want to be able to measure your improvement. Don't be surprised if you see a 3-8% reduction in your body fat over the four weeks and many pounds! This is common.
What kinds of people go to camp?
They are people just like you attend this boot camp from all over El Paso, TX. Someone who needs a little push to jump-start their fitness and wellness program. Camp is designed for all sizes, shapes and fitness levels
How soon will I see results?
Performance improvement can take place in as little as three days. "Visual Improvement" can take from two to four weeks depending on your effort level. It's becoming common to see a member go down 1-2 dresses sizes or 1.2 pant sizes within the first camp. Remember, everyone is different! It's not a competition, so focus on your individual results.
Are there shower facilities, or a place I can get ready for work?
If you are a member of EP Fitness, you can get ready there. Even if you are not a member, you might think of joining as the facility is a great way to enhance your fitness.
What do I need to bring?
An exercise mat, iPod with your favorite songs (keep one earphone in and one ear open), water bottle, good cross training/running shoes, the proper clothing for the days weather, sunscreen, a hat, and a sense of adventure.
Why should I participate?
You will make a dramatic improvement in your physical and mental well-being. In addition, you'll meet great people who share your same passion for acquiring a more healthy body and mind. You will be finished with your training before the rest of the world has even gotten started! And, you'll be several hundred calories ahead of everyone else!
Is there a refund policy?
If you are unable to attend camp due to circumstances out of your control, we can offer you a refund if you notify us prior to your session start date. However, we will charge a $50.00 cancellation fee. If we are notified after your session begins, we can only give you a credit towards another boot camp. This credit is nontransferable. There is no cash refund. We only do this as knowing you may lose money you are much less likely to miss your sessions. We have never been asked to give a refund.
What is the investment?
Each month's boot camp has a price of $99 per month for 1 to 20 sessions of instruction! That is as low as $5 per hour but averages $8 per hour. Where else can you get premiere or cutting-edge fitness instruction for that incredible price? Simply cut out one bad fast food or restaurant meal or any other bad habit like drinking or smoking and your new healthy lifestyle will pay for your training!
Other Options:
Most of our members love camp so much they come back time and time again. Our Inner Circle Membership is a great option if you want to make fitness a way of life and save some money. Join our auto draw payment plan and save money.
What if I can't perform a certain exercise?
We will instruct you how to perform a modified, lower-impact version of the exercise as an alternative. This will strengthen the targeted muscle group so that you will eventually be able to perform the original exercise.
Will you yell at us? I'm scared!
I consider yelling negative reinforcement and hence, do not consider this motivating. It may be good theater at other boot camps but has no real value. We are all adults and aim to keep you focused on the task at hand. Abuse, harassment - we don't go there, even if you want us to. If you want verbal abuse, well, I do not recommend this! For positive reinforcement, come and enjoy the camaraderie of a non-competitive group workout at Boot Camp Fitness.
What about the weather?
During inclement weather - too hot, too cold, raining, etc. – well, may I use an historical example. The Spartans did not worry about the weather. Simply dress appropriately. Check the weather daily.
Who can/should attend?
Everyone from 15 to 70.

My sister recently found this custom aquarium at a garage sale. You certainly don't come across that kind of thing every day. Of course she snatched it up. She's a HUGE turtle advocate and rescues them all the time. But at this time of year, they tend to love making babies. What better use for this piece than to incubate babies! PS, these are all native box turtles I think. And will be released into the HUGE turtle pit she has once they're old enough. She always keeps the babies safe inside until they're old enough to join the "Herd of Turtles." And they all eventually go to good homes. She's such a wonderful turtle conservationist.
