My name is Joshue Garcia-Espidio. I am 13-years- old and was born in North Carolina, USA. My family is from Mexico and is Hispanic. I like my culture and I'm proud of who I am, and where I'm from. I speak Spanish and learned to speak English in kindergarten. I enjoy making art and being involved in a group of people to support the community. I think unity and coming together, despite the fact that everyone is different, is the best way to help the community.
What I want to see change in the community is getting rid of racism and for people to get to know where they're from and what their culture is, because people can't judge someone if they don't know who they are and what kind of person they are.

Steamboat Stage Race
The remodel done on this unit is incredible! From the minute you open the door, you know the stay is going to be special. Having 2 full baths with a washer/dryer room and new kitchen with granite counter tops was a treat. Kitchen is stocked with everything you'll need to eat in or walk down and cook out on the gas grill located on the front lawn. Plenty of parking for 2 during off ski season and the location is perfect. We just can't say enough about how nice our stay was except we'll be back for SSSR next year!
picture perfect!
Great place to stay. Very clean. Close to everything. Bus shuttle to town and restaurants right across the street. Lots to do or do nothing and relax . Had a great time. Condo was brand new and kitchen fully equipped. Would stay again .

PCC Natural Markets' Edmonds, Wash. store earns both LEED Platinum and Salmon-Safe Certifications
Thursday, February 17, 2011
The newest location of PCC Natural Markets (PCC), the nation's largest natural foods retail cooperative, has earned two of the most prestigious certifications awarded to buildings for features and operations that support human and environmental health. The Edmonds PCC is now LEED Platinum and Salmon-Safe certified, and the only grocery store in the nation to have earned both honors.
"Our transformation of a long-vacant building into a showcase of features and systems that protect and conserve natural resources demonstrates PCC's commitment to operating stores that are as healthy for customers and employees as the products we sell," said Tracy Wolpert, PCC's CEO. "We hope that our Edmonds store inspires other retailers to make similar investments in the well-being of the neighborhoods and natural habitats that surround them."
LEED is the rating system developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) through which the design, construction and operation of buildings are evaluated. Certification is awarded at Certified, Silver, Gold, or Platinum levels and is based on achievement in each of six environmental categories. The Edmonds PCC opened in September 2008, two years after PCC built the first-ever LEED Gold grocery store in Redmond, Wash.
The Edmonds PCC's LEED Platinum certification falls under the USGBC's new pilot program called "LEED for Retail: Commercial Interiors." The category for Redmond PCC's LEED Gold certification is "LEED for Retail: New Construction." Virtually all of the features of the Redmond store, including those designed to maximize energy and water efficiency, waste reduction, use of sustainable materials, and optimum air quality, were replicated in the Edmonds location. PCC raised its own bar for eco-friendly features by installing a rainwater harvesting system and two parking lot rain gardens.
Oregon-based Salmon-Safe was founded as a program to help farmers restore salmon streams in the Pacific Northwest and is the only certification program in the country specifically dedicated to protecting water quality and habitat for salmon. In 2004 Stewardship Partners, a Seattle nonprofit which works to improve the quality of Washington watersheds, brought the Salmon-Safe program to Washington State. The program's initial focus on farm and vineyard certification was expanded in 2007 to include urban properties and was launched by Salmon-Safe's Seattle-based outreach partner, The Network for Business Innovation and Sustainability (NBIS). Salmon-Safe's Puget Sound urban initiative acknowledges that the biggest single factor affecting the Puget Sound ecosystem is the rapid growth of the urban landscape.
PCC's Edmonds store earned Salmon-Safe certification for its environmentally innovative redesign and development of its three-acre site. Specifically, the location is being recognized for harvesting rooftop rainwater for irrigation and other reuse, incorporating low input landscaping, and for treatment of parking lot runoff through its rain gardens. In this case, Salmon Safe Certification criteria helped contribute to the overall LEED rating points system, demonstrating how the two certifications can work together.

Organizers of the
Tony Cotman of NZR Consulting, the company in charge of building the race circuit, said preparing the 12-turn course around the
"The majority of it will be done in the final 22 days," Cotman said in a statement released Friday. In the final week, he noted, streets will be closed around the circuit so crews can work through the night.
Cotman said race organizers would strive to minimize disruption for downtown businesses, workers, residents and visitors.
"It's an extremely difficult build because of the sheer size of the area," he said. Besides installing cement barriers and safety fencing along the streets to be used in the race, crews will be erecting grandstands and other structures for the race teams, media covering the races and the thousands of spectators expected.
Last year's Grand Prix drew an estimated 100,000 spectators and earned favorable reviews from race crews, though it proved to be a financial disaster for the original organizers, Baltimore Racing Development, which collapsed, leaving millions in unpaid bills. After one replacement fell through, Mayor
"Street circuits have a lot of challenges, but it's just a matter of a good construction schedule," said Cotman, who has designed and built courses elsewhere. He said organizers intend to work "hand-in-hand" with city officials and agencies.
"I think both sides learned a lot from last year," Cotman said, "and I think now the city has more of an understanding of the requirements and how it affects them."
Race organizers say they will schedule their work around a string of 17 Baltimore Orioles home games at
With the southern part of the 2-mile circuit planned to loop around Oriole Park, Cotman said night construction work will be delayed until after those games.
Race organizers also say they plan to "tweak" the track design this year to speed up the race and improve views by spectators and those watching the televised event.

Steam Controller Redesign Includes Analog Thumbstick
Pages 1 2 NEXT
Steam Controller Redesign Includes Analog Thumbstick
The Steam controller is looking more and more like a traditional controller with each redesign.
Pretty much every single video game controller since the N64 has featured analog "thumb sticks", that making moving in 3D spaces considerably easier than other alternatives. So, you can understand the bemusement fans had when Valve first unveiled its Steam controller, which featured touch panels and trackpads instead of face buttons and analog sticks. The last redesign saw face buttons return, and now, though it still features its dual trackpads, a new redesign for the controller includes a traditional thumb stick.
The image to the right, which was fished out of the Steam database by the folks over at SteamDB, shows the thumb stick in place of what was the d-pad in the prior design. Other than this addition, and a few "streamlining" changes, the controller is more or less the same as what we saw before.
The controller was initially set to debut in November of this year, but was pushed back to 2015 so Valve could make further improvements to it. "[The Steam Machines hardware beta is] generating a ton of useful feedback, and it means we'll be able to make the controller a lot better. Of course, it's also keeping us pretty busy making all those improvements. Realistically, we're now looking at a release window of 2015, not 2014."
The controller was met with somewhat mixed reviews from most of the outlets that managed to get their hands on it, with its signature trackpads being rather hit and miss. The addition of a thumb stick could be an appeal to the more traditionalist crowd.
What do you think? Have you tried a Steam Controller? Do the trackpads work or should Valve have taken its cues from the old "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" adage?
Source: PC Gamer
First thing to keep in mind when trying to innovate: Everything that exists has a reason to exist. If you want to improve it, find that reason first, then think about how to make the thing better. Not the other way around.
Ok, who would wanna' buy this thing?Every single game that requires a certain degree of precision is out the window, so who is it met for?
What is a Seam controller? Methinks you have a typo in the title there!
They seem to be trying to reinvent the wheel here...It would be sad to see their consoles flop because of the controller
Because one thumbstick worked so well for PSP.
I think this is kinda cool because I definitely would rather use the track pad rather than a thumbstick for mouse movement, but not wasd movement. Everyone just hates on the Steam controller because it's not an exact fuckin' copy of the Xbox or PS controller. And when they said "if it's not broke don't fix it", that's stupid because the xbox/PS controllers are broke, thumbsticks for looking around is terrible especially for FPS. But replacing the Dpad doesn't seem like a very good idea, I think they should keep the Dpad and replace the left trackpad with an analog stick because a trackpad isn't really better than an analog stick when it comes to wasd movement (in fact I'd say it's worse) so replacing it with an analog stick would be better for those who are used to it, which is most people, it would look stupid, but I think it would be best.
It's so inelegant now. There's no way a person can use the left trackpad and the left thumbstick at the same time, so one of them is just going to be serving as the worlds worst (and most overcomplicated) d-pad ever.
Plus it's worrying that they seem to have decided that actually their trackpads can't completely replacement the movements of an analogue stick.
At least we're getting proof that the modern controllers are really well designed, if someone has spent years and years trying to innovate it and every time they make an improvement it's to make it look more like a traditional controller.
Worked better than the Vitas two thumbsticks going by current numbers and sonys own predictions for the coming year.
Oh dear, incoming dogmas, misconceptions and other delusions about innovation management ...
They tried something new, they tried to find the next radical innovation. It would have made them a fortune and change the way we see controllers if it had worked out (not saying trackpads are the next thing, just generalising). To use a contemporary example; Much like how just regular mobile phones early on were considered useless, clunky and expensive; A toy for the rich and famous to show off .. And now every 12 year old I see has a smart phone and considers it a necessity, while sleeping in an IKEA bed and eating crappy food because proper, fresh produce is too expensive for their pauper parents; Because fuck logic and priorities.
But no, now we got internet know-it-alls proclaiming they shouldn't try reinventing the wheel, staying ahead of the curve, the bloody disgusting 'I told you so attitude'. Do you even have a solid foundation for your opinion other than the standard "my e-peen is bigger than yours" attitude?
I for one wish more companies tried to think outside the box. I want to see the next big thing. Why would anyone not want to go forward? Do you really enjoy your xbox one/ps4 so much? Do you really enjoy how every game is practically the same uninspired mess with questionably better visuals? How every movie consists of the same big tits, muscles and explosions?
Anyway, if you're seriously interested in innovation management, I can highly recommend the following books:
Strategy from the Outside In: Profiting from Customer Value, McGraw-Hill Professional (2010) (by George S. Day and Christine Moorman)
And these 2 articles:
Profiting from Technological Innovation: Implications for Integration, Collaboration, Licensing and Public Policy (1986) Research Policy, 15: 285-305 (by Teece, D.J.)
/end rant
Have a nice day
Wow that is a lot of people now very embarrassed by this news, don't worry I'll not publicly embarrass you as you know who you are. If the trackpads are supposed to be so accurate than why not drop the D-pad for another stick if you're going to have sticks?
Sales figures have nothing to do with the matter of sales (well that comparison anyway). The two sticks the Vita has is far better than the one the PSP had.
Simple but brilliant philosophy. Strange that it seems so hard to follow.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the finest of wisdom the internet has to offer. If only product designers and innovation managers took 10 minutes a day to browse fora and google for such jewels and other old adages. The world would be a better place and we'd be flying space cars and have sex with robots. Dear god, why would anyone spend years slogging it out at uni, and then spend another decade researching unproven technologies to try and find the next best thing, only to fail over and over, while the internet contains everything one could ever hope for.
Please refrain from spouting nonsense; This should have been basic knowledge. Never ask the consumer what they want; Never assume the consumer knows what they want. Consumers are clueless. Never assume technology is only useful in one specific application, field or context (refrigerators, GPS, combustion engines, x-ray machines, ..)
Mankind would still be trying to rub sticks together to make fires if we adapted your dogma. People would just keep improving on their sticks, technique, whatever. Sure, we'd have the best frigging sticks possible, make the fastest and most reliable fire ever. They'd be shiny, polished, symbols of wealth. We could have an entire economy basic on manufacturing and exporting sticks. You could be the kind of sticks, sitting on your throne, being envied by the plebs. God himself would be jealous of your stick mastery. But for fuck's sake; I'd rather use the world's crappiest lighter or matches compared to the greatest pair of sticks mankind has ever known. Because PROGRESS!
PSP didn't have trackpads that worked as thumbsticks.
Valve, valve, valve... Just make into a DualShock already!
Not quite sure what to make of this post. If its sarcastic, honest or what.
Progress is great. But sometimes a limit can be reached. There are limits to what we can do physically as human beings. There are limits to how precise we can be with different tools. Some tools are better than others for certain tasks. Doing something new, does not mean doing something better. I'd rather use a shovel for digging than a fork, even if a fork seems more original.
Same principle applies to controllers. We have an abundance. D-pads, mouse, analogue stick etc. Some things work better for certain tasks than others. Imagine playing street fighter with a mouse. Wouldnt work so well. I applaud Steam for trying something new, but all it seems to be to me (granted I have not actually tried the controller) is an attempt to make the gamepad more like a mouse. And I really dont think it will work as well. In the end it doesnt matter much though. The Steam machines will be PCs at heart. Which means all peripherals are available. So I'll just stick with the one best suited to the game I am currently playing.
I just think that progress means more than doing something new. It means doing something new that is BETTER than what came before.
I was excited for the controller as a replacement for the lackluster 360 controller I currently use on PC games. But if they don't have a decent D-pad then I'm not interested. Track pads? Sounds cool and different, I'm willing to give that a shot. But I need a decent D-pad for 2D games. The biggest reason I want to replace the 360 controller is because of the dreadful D-pad, after all.
Why an analog stick? I guess that gives someone the choice of either touch pad or thumbstick for the left hand. It would be better, though, if this thing was modular like those third party console controllers from a few years back that let you swap out the positions of the buttons/d-pad/thumbsticks. A customizable PC controller that let me choose where and what kind of inputs it had would have me throwing gold bullion at my screen.
Jeese, at the current rate, someone at Valve probably called one of the designs the "Steam Controller 3" and suddenly Gabe's eyes lit up, then he said "We can never release this now." If this ever reaches stores, it'll be bundled with Half-Life 3: Episode 2. /jk
For now, I'll stick to KB/Mouse(which I can use at my recliner with the magic of usb extentions and an MDF board) and the xbone controller I just bought. That thing has a really damn good d-pad[1]for 2D games, which Steam has a fairly high amount of. (Valve, you paying attention to your own store? Don't tell me touchpads work good with that kind of game.) The only thing that needs work is the bumpers are kinda funky like others have said but you can get used to them and, just like the 360 controller, the driver treats the triggers as a single axis, so forget using them in a game with generic button mapping options unless you will never use them simultaneously.
[1] I think it's got tactile switches for the d-pad! MS, drop that dumbass media box you've been tripping over and downsize the "services" horseshit and get back to making awesome computer accessories and games like the good ol' days. At least update the drivers to what is the proper successor to the Sidewinder gamepads.
Well sales figures have everything to do with the matter of sales, as they are proof of sales and the amount of them, but i'm going to assume there was a typo/word you didn't mean to write somewhere in there.
But if two thumbsticks is better than one then as this has a thumbstick and 2 things that work as thumbsticks it has 3 so is even better!!!
(if your not getting it yet, I'm pointing out that saying that number of thumb sticks was a problem is stupid hence my reply to the first person. It was only a problem on the PSP because people kept on making games that really needed two thumbsticks on a console with only one. That's not a problem with the console, that was an issue with the idiots making the games)
I thought the point of the trackpads was to emulate mouse movement, not WASD movement. Why does it need two trackpads? One would work perfectly fine, and not way up the controller either. That would be like moving someones foot pedal in their car.
So they discovered two pads that don't offer tactile feedback aren't going to work well, but they're trying to save face by keeping them even though sticks and a proper d-pad get the job done better in most cases and they're going to try and get devs to shoehorn in elements that require them just like that stupid pad on the PS4.
The fuck? I thought the trackpads are the replacement for analog sticks. If they are not good enough then DITCH THE FUCKING TRACKPADS.
Made me laugh :)
The main thing that struck me is just how uncomfortable it looks to hold. It feels like Valve are trying to create something that is both like a keyboard & mouse and a controller when, really, each of those do very different things.
goddamit, they ruined it, the last design that perfect
also why are you people asking for the trackpads to be removed? if you want an xbox 360 controller, just buy an xbox 360 controller and plug it into your PC, or an Xbox One controller
wow, a d-pad and an analog stick are nowhere near appropiate for most proper PC games out there, they are less than aprropiate for shooters as well, thats why autoaim exists
Having an analogue stick as well as trackpads seems kinda counterproductive considering what they are trying to achieve here. The problem that arises from this is that you will end up with one useless input method. Whether it is the analogue stick that cannot be used for anything, or a trackpad where buttons can be assigned to it, but a set of physical buttons would be superior. Whilst I have not used a Steam controller, I don't really see what they are trying to achieve here. Sure, analogue sticks aren't very good for precision, but trackpads aren't exactly the pinnacle of accuracy either, and in the cases where a trackpad would be superior to a traditional analogue stick (FPS?, mouse controlled UI, etc), the trackpads would still suffer where analogue sticks work well (Driving and brawler games), and even if trackpads worked somewhat well, there is no way in hell that I would want to bring a Steam controller into a competitive environment against someone with a mouse and keyboard. Nonetheless, I would like to try one out for myself, but as it stands, it doesn't really look like something that will catch on.
He(?) is right.
So far I've yet to see one solid argument that speaks against the Steam controller. The reason for this is really simple:
I, for one, am really eager to get my hands on a Steam controller. Just so I can form an educated opinion.
Valid point about the knowledge, however it seems you both decide to pit any opinion in the extreme. I'm not saying that we shouldnt try new things, I'm just saying we shouldnt necessarily hail new things as the BEST things just because they are new. Some things actually work well because they have developed to be like that over time. And sometimes something reaches its peak.
To my knowledge the steam pad functions more or less like the touchpad of a laptop. How anyone could manage to use that for anything worthwhile is beyond me. It simply seems to me to be:
1: Not as fast/effective as a dpad for fighting games. (You lack the tactile feedback of finger positioning and button pressing)
Of course, I reserve the right to be proven wrong on any of these points, but I've been hardcore gaming for 20 odd years on more or less every platform there is, so I've got SOME experience with different peripherals. What it seems like to me, is a gamepad that wants to be a mouse without being a mouse. Which seems silly to me, as if you actually need a mouse you just USE one.
Thats my reasoning. This is the problem with consoles (which really is the market the steam machines are aiming at). They are a jack of all trades but king at none. If I'm gonna play 3rd person games I prefer the xbox360 controller, but I wouldnt DREAM of playing street fighter with it. The Dualshock is my go to choice for fighting games. If I'm gonna play strategy games or shooters I use keyboard+mouse. It seems to me that Valve is trying to make a controller that has the strengths of both and the weaknesses of none. If they manage to do it I'll be very glad as it means less clutter on my desk. But until its tried and tested by someone other than a fanatic I'm skeptical.
Untill any of us gets to use the controler i dnt know why everyone is bitching and doing the "told ya so" and it should just make a ps4 controler ....the fuck is the point in that. They doing somthing new and it looks alot smooth and better to aim then any game pad ive used. Being a pure PC gamer i would love to see how well it would do on an fps for example. Gotta try it out first to see for sure.
I could have told you that. Analog exists because its hard to break. The steam Controller's D pad was prone to breaking because gamers had a death grip on the fucking thing. So now they have replace the D pad or find a way to make it more resilient. As it is, the majority of the older steam controllers are broken for that very reason.
The people who got the 300 steam boxes are sitting on a gold mine if their controller still works. Its a collector's wet dream.
Can anyone give me a reason why the face buttons for all controllers are on the same fucking side of the controller with the least amount of digits available to press them? Its time people laid to rest this stupid fucking notion that modern controllers are somehow teh best evar. Virtually every game without a fixed camera angle runs into this bullshit. You can't press the face buttons and operate the camera at the same time.
Game devs have to implement cludges just to work around this stupid damned layout, and now gamers have gotten used to it and fucking cling to it religiously.
Its broken from a design perspective, its broken from an ergonomic perspective, and now that devs have to design games around this insipid fucking layout, its broken from a game design perspective.
This stupid shit has only been around since the PS2, and its obvious whoever designed it has no fucking clue what human hands look like.
Wow, this is disappointing.
I'm beginning to think they should ditch the idea.
Given the responses about the trackpads and the addition of an analogue stick, it's looking more like the trackpads are going to be no more "appropriate." Another revision or two, and you really might as well plug in a 360 controller.
from the people who have used the controller, the trackpads havent received more negative feedback than analogs
Oh for fuck's sake, this isn't even a confirmed change! PC Gamer and Ars Technica are the only ones I've seen that are acknowledging that nobody at Valve has actually said this change is going to go through. Literally the only source for this is a picture in the Steam beta files, that could mean anything: a proposed redesign, a redesign under consideration, a hypothetical redesign, or somebody just put it there for another reason.
But... I can already plug Microsoft and Sony controllers into my PC. Why would I want to buy a steam controller? Maybe for RTS games?
In my opinion, they should take out the left touchpad completely and place the joystick there for comfort and place a D-pad on where the joystick is right now.
You have to think about the games first when you design a controller, the joystick is great for movement, that's been tried and tested. The D-pad is great with 2D games and fighting games.
The only issue with the joystick is precision aiming in fps games and that's where the touchpad comes in on the right. But this is all educational guesses, we really have to try out the controller for ourselves before we can make any meaningful input.
First thought:
Here's hoping it's just one among many proposed redesigns.
Second thought:
Yeah. That's exactly what we need. More of the same.

LASTING IMPRESSION: It's not a story that everyone will follow, and the direction and design really skirts the line between reality and fantasy. But once we let go of the logic, linearity and tight control that we were expecting, we really enjoyed the wild ride along with the main character. With top-notch acting performances and beautifully inventive design, this was our top recommendation for friends who were looking for a well-done holiday show that was out of the ordinary.

When it comes to a saline implant rupture you will find that it will quickly deflate, but it is easy to remove. You will find that the FDA has announced that the rupture of saline implants has declined over the years; however, older studies mostly depend on clinical exams.
Today, there are many people disputing these past reports because the exams and the information is not accurate. One study reported ruptures in asymptomatic patients are correctly detected by experienced plastic surgeons 30% of the time. This is compared to a detection rate of 86% by MRIs.
Now, the FDA recommends that you get MRI's done to see if there are any ruptures within three years of having the implants. Also, you will find that you should continue to get the MRI done every two years following your first check up.
Other countries consider MRIs useful only in cases of suspected ruptures and to confirm ultrasound or mammographic studies suggesting a rupture.
Keep in mind that silicone implants will rupture, but that will not cause the implant to deflate. The silicone leaks into the space around the implant. This indicates the need for removal of the implant. The risk and treatment of extracapsular leakage is controversial. It's agreed the gel is difficult to remove, but there's disagreement about the health effects.
When it comes to MRI data for the silicone gel implants, you'll find that after 11 years a woman is bound to have a rupture and that will also include leakage. You'll need to make sure that you consider the silent rupture risk before you begin to take action towards surgery. You will find that a rupture within your first six years is hardly heard of.

Last week and over the weekend were *Pawsitively* chaotic. Sorry couldn't resist. Currently I pulling together a couple of posters for Virginia Greyhound and as easy as it should be, I'm having a hard time deciding on what photos to use. I'm also helping VAGA gather photos to use on wine labels. There's a California vineyard that allows organizations like VAGA to make their own labels. Today I need to call the vineyard to get the complete details of how they want us to get them the photos. Then to top our busy week off my family and I accepted a beautiful female brindle Greyhound into our home (photos coming).
Star is our new foster Greyhound. She's a beautiful girl! She arrived yesterday morning at 9:30 am scared. I know she had to be wondering what is going on? But her shivering didn't last long. She quickly warmed up to my husband and I. The poor girl was in for quite a bit of excitement because we had to introduce her to our canine crew.
We decided to start with Josie, when we first decided to adopt a GH we thought she was going to be our problem dog, turns out she's our most well adjusted. She loves meeting new dogs and people and yesterday was no different. I leashed her up and took her to meet Star and she didn't disappoint she calmly approached Star and they sniffed each other from butt to head and then proceeded to go about their business. My husband and I took them for a short walk together and except for stopping to sniff each other and their surroundings we had no problems. We entered the backyard and all was well, more sniffing and a little play.
I put Josie inside and then leashed Quiet Wyatt and proceeded outside. If the neighbors were still sleeping they weren't after Wyatt caught sight of Star. He barked his fool head off, but to my amazement it didn't last long. He settled quickly. The only part of meeting Star that Wyatt was unsure of were her attempts to smell his butt. He guards his hind end because Josie tends to take his legs out from under him when they play. Except for that and the barking everything went smoothly. Dexter was the last to meet Star and I did that on purpose. I wanted the initial meetings to end on a calm note. But Dexter never ceases to amaze us. He came out ready to play. He was a tad more excited than we anticipated. He was still our good boy just a little more of a hyped version. We decided to take the two of them on a full blown walk and the entire time Dexter made sure that Star knew my husband was his even though he was holding Star's leash. When we got back to our home Dexter was ready to play, though Star was still a little weary. After some time alone in the backyard with Dexter we let Josie back out and a little while after that Wyatt. All went well, they sniffed ran, played all the things well-adjusted dogs should do. Our last hurdle was to enter the house and again it all went off without a hitch.
Star is our third foster and by far the easiest to introduce. Here it is barely 24 hours later and we've already experienced the circle tail wags and as she walks around our home and yard she's relaxed and carrying he tail loosely with a slight curl.
Come back later, I'll have photos and I'll add the next phase of training. Until then Woof, Woof and Roo, Roo!

Sapienza is deeply committed to provide support for the refugee crisis and, as part of a series of activities to face the large migration flow to Europe, it is involved - together with the European Commission and other universities - in several projects that aim to provide refugees with access to university and higher education.
On September 26-27, Sapienza was in Beirut at the "Higher Education and Refugees in the Mediterranean" Conference, organized by the European Commission and Project "Hopes - Higher and Further Education Opportunities and Perspectives for Syrians." The event involves one hundred experts who will discuss the impact of the Syrian Crisis on the higher education system in southern Mediterranean countries.
Subsequently, on September 27-28, Sapienza will be in Lebanon to attend the meeting of Project "Rescue - Refugees Education Support in Mena Countries" coordinated by UNIMED, the Union of Mediterranean Universities. Project Rescue, funded by the Erasmus+ Capacity Building Programme in Higher Education in 2016, addresses refugee acceptance in Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq, countries that have been particularly affected by the Syrian Crisis and have had to manage large flows of immigrants from the nearby areas of conflict. The project aims to establish operational units at the seven Lebanese, Jordanian and Iraqi partner universities, to provide ad hoc services to refugees who wish to access higher education.
Moreover, Sapienza is also involved in Project InHere (funded by the European Union under the Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership Programme) to facilitate the integration and access of refugees to higher education institutes. Project InHere (Higher Education Supporting Refugees in Europe) has developed and published a catalogue of good practices on refugee reception, a selection of nearly 300 initiatives collected through the Refugees Welcome Map Campaign conducted by the Association of European Universities. As part of the project, the University of Barcelona will also organise a series of webinars on related issues and Sapienza will organise a workshop entitled "Easing Access of Refugees to HEIs" on October 18, 2017.

In a recent attempt by African migrants to cross the Mediterranean in order to start a new life in Italy and Europe as a whole, they have found themselves part of a massive tragedy off the shores of the Lampedusa Island in Italy. They paid the ultimate price almost 300 men, women, and children are feared to have drowned out of 500 aboard the 20 metre vessel. The boat itself was in sight of the shore but it had caught fire and sunk before they could reach their destination. Witnesses of the tragic events could only describe the Mediterranean sea "was like a morgue".
The migrants were believed to be from Eritrea, and Somalia where the boat left from Libyan shores. In the past decade thousands of migrants have died in the same way but this is the worst specific incident over the last 10 or so years.
The tragic story begun when the boats motor died on them, which then led to the boat taking on water. The passengers had no means of technology to call for help so they started a fire for signal, but the fuel, mixed with water led the boat to light up. The 500 passengers crammed to one side of the boat which left everyone to be flung or forced into the sea. It is expected 3 out of 100 women were rescued and no children were saved.
Simona Marcelli who is a legal expert for International Migration in Rome stated "Most of the migrants can't swim. Only the strongest survived."
A young Tunisian man has been detained after the events of this wreck, he is believed to be of the crew and also a trafficker, he faces charges of many counts of murder. The Mediterranean is very calm at this time of the year which means a lot of boats from Africa and the Middle East are carrying migrants to Europe, many of which are not sea worthy. These are desperate people trying to start a new life and the traffickers are the people who will risk everything and take their money.
European Commission has called for Europe to step up its efforts in preventing these horrors from occurring. The Commissioner said "we also need to intensify our efforts to fight criminal networks exploiting human despair"
In response to this, Italian Foreign minister said "there is no miraculous solution to the migrant exodus issue. If there were, we would have found it and put it into action"
People from Africa are always going to be searching for a new life in Europe, and there is always going to be a criminal network of traffickers willing to risk these tragedies and take them. There needs to be stricter coastal regulations in order to stop the boats or allow assistance to shore otherwise there will be a lot more of these types of tragedies in the future.

Job 4:4 Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees.Words words words. Sure you're building a story, you being the architect of the masterpiece, but are you building your story on just words or WORDS?
There is a difference you know. I can write a poem and by the time I've revised it, many of the unimportant words have bit the dust and my poem comes out stronger in my minds eye. This is what we need to do to our stories.
Sure we hate cutting out words, but we need to make sure the reader is getting every juicy morsel of our work and not just words spilled on the paper like yesterdays coffee stain. Our words are our tools in making the reader flip through paragraph after paragraph. They need to see each blooming chapter as being filled with new possibilities for your character(s).
If you're writing a novel, those first words in a paragraph are so important to keeping your reader reading. We usually call it the hook. The first paragraph, you say, not the first page? Nope, it is that very first paragraph that has to pack so much punch that the reader will be willing to move onto the second, third and fourth paragraph.
I have read books where I've gotten through the entire first power-packed chapter only to find that the second chapter had less fizzle than sizzle and I wound up never reading the entire story. Is this what you want for your reader? I didn't think so. You didn't sit at the keyboard hours on end typing fifty thousand words only to find you've written nothing with substance, just a bunch of words slung onto the page, thrown together like a heap of wind driven leaves.
In revision, you need to cut out those unnecessary words, fill the sentence with flavor, scan each chapter as if you were panning for gold, and make each and every paragraph leap out at you. Make your story what you think every reader wants in their arsenal of literature.
Do you have a heap pile? That's the pile of books that have gone un-read, sit on your shelf looking out at you like the long lost teddy-bear of years gone by, wishing you would pick it up and hold it endearingly.
I don't have a heap pile. ha ha I only buy or read books that I know are going to get me to the end and fulfill the commitment that the writer began in the first place and that is to make my reading journey a pleasant experience.
Don't waste you or the readers time on 'just words', make every one count so in the end, we the writer and reader are fulfilled in the journey!
Job 8: 10 Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

Rumor Roundup: Galaxy S6, OnePlus Two and More!
Mark is NOT back to tackle the biggest tech rumors of this week! Instead Jon is bringing you this week's episode of Rumor Roundup, where he discusses rumors of the Samsung Galaxy S6. With photos that show off some possible designs that look like a mashup of previous Galaxy devices.
We also debunk some rumors around the OnePlus Two after it showed up on a retailer's website. Seriously, let's just put up random devices up "for sale" and claim its coming soon.
And some Internet Explorer browser news for Windows 10, maybe we'll get a sneak peak of it in January.
All this and more in this episode of Rumor Roundup!
Thanks to today's sponsor Lynda.com.
This Week's Rumors
Galaxy S6: These Photos Might Be Our First Look
Samsung's Galaxy S6 is likely due out in early 2015, perhaps right around the Mobile World Congress trade show in Barcelona in early March – at least if rumors suggesting Samsung wants to get it out sooner than later are…
This OnePlus Two Leak Looks Too Good To Be True
We're not expecting the OnePlus Two to hit the market anytime soon, but that didn't stop one Chinese phone-seller from listing the device for pre-order. GeekBuying recently offered up a list of specs, pricing and even an alleged image of…
Windows 10 May Come with a Brand New "Spartan" Browser
Windows 10 is set to be one of the biggest software updates in Microsoft history, and it looks like that could mean a brand new browser for the new operating system. The company is reportedly working on a secret project,…

The Maharashtra government on Thursday suspended two serving Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officers -Jairaj Pathak and Pradeep Vyas- for their alleged connection to the Adarsh Housing Society scam.
The Maharashtra government on Thursday submitted a status report to the Bombay High Court and said that the two IAS officers will be under suspension till the investigation process is completed.
According to reports, the government also informed the court that a high level meeting of the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Income Tax authorities and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) was held in connection to the scam.
Earlier, the CBI arrested two persons, including a retired brigadier, who were allegedly linked to the scam.
The two arrested persons were identified as RC Thakur, who is a former defence estates officer, and Brigadier (Retired) MM Wanchoo.
They were arrested from their respective residences.
The Bombay High Court had earlier this month criticised the CBI for not arresting the accused in the Adarsh Cooperative Housing Society scam despite having sufficient evidences.
Sucked into the controversy over allotment of flats in the Adarsh Society meant for Kargil War heroes´ families to a clutch of bureaucrats and politicians in Mumbai, several politicians, including former Maharashtra chief minister Ashok Chavan, have lost their jobs or are facing probe.
The 30-storey apartment, housing many top level defence officials, was built on a disputed army land at Colaba and it is alleged that the flats meant for the families of the Kargil martyrs were allotted to top defence officials and kins of politicians.

If approved by the school board at the end of November, Westlake High School students may get some current and practical new classes in the 2018-19 school year, including Advanced Epicure Academy and Swift Coding to replace Computer Science Pre-AP.
Eanes Associate Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction Todd Washburn and Westlake Principal Steve Ramsey presented fresh course descriptions to Eanes school board members during a Nov. 7 study session.
Proposed classes provide new career and technical opportunities, add to language sequences, address some changes in graduation requirements and replace choices that have less student interest.
Courses being evaluated for elimination include: Ready, Set, Teach, Principles of Human Services, AP Comparative Government, Environmental Systems, Broadcast Journalism, Spanish 6 and America West.
The development process begins with teachers and department chairs, who submit plans to the campus leadership team and Ramsey. If approved, courses are reviewed by the district leadership team before being presented to the board.
Other potential new offerings include: Post AP courses in Chinese, French, and German; Global Leadership in the 21st Century, Model United Nations, Disaster Response II, Theory of Health Science, Service Learning and Outdoor Adventure Education.
Funding for the classes will come from various sources, including current allotments, small student fees and private donations of equipment or services.
Washburn noted that not all of these classes require a lot of expense.
"Some of the advanced foreign language classes can be combined," Washburn said. "You can have concurrent classes and can stack students because they operate more independently" at a higher level of fluency, particularly in the fifth and sixth year classes.
A number of classes provide practical opportunities, which could lead to jobs straight out of high school for some students, something Westlake has not focused on substantially before, such as the cooking courses. The culinary program will also teach hospitality management and entrepreneurship.
Eanes school board president Colleen Jones suggested contacting teachers in the Special Education program and those who teach children graduating under an Individualized Education Plan to make them aware of this opportunity for their students and say, "Hey, these courses might be a fit."
School board member John Havenstrite agreed that those would be good students to target and suggested some might also be interested in the health science courses focused on training pharmacy and phlebotomy technicians.
Other offerings will prepare students to be better citizens, exploring how countries try to resolve conflicts in the U.N. using parliamentary procedure or teach them to put themselves in the place of world leaders. They'll collaborate and develop critical thinking and diplomatic skills to find real solutions for global problems.
Another class that has piqued a lot of interest is "Outdoor Adventure Education," offered as a physical education credit. Washburn advised that few students take regular P.E. classes any more, noting Westlake was down from nine to two sections now. The coed class will probably be offered when it can abut lunch or another free time. It would include: fishing, archery, boating, orienteering, survival training, first-aid, CPR, trip planning, hiking, backpacking, camping, outdoor cooking, mountain biking, wilderness medicine, paddle sports and wilderness conservation.
The idea is to offer a fun outlet of escape for students.
"Anything you'd have in a summer camp, you'd have in this," Ramsey said.
Washburn said the Swift Coding course is also creating a buzz because it would teach a new computer language not currently offered.
"We're really focusing on IOS," developing tools to make apps for Apple, Washburn explained. "They are really hot right now. We're excited about this. We've heard a lot of good things from our kids. They're excited about using Swift Playground, which is a free app and fits into our budget."

If you are a newlywed couple for some reason or another you might have gotten behind in your bills. This happens to many of us.
I am sure you have been called by a bill collector. In 2010 there were over 10,000 bill collecting agencies registered. They have collected approximately $9 billion dollars.
If you are being harassed by one of these agencies you do have rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. This abuse can be reported to the Federal Trade Commission and also your local state attorney generals office.
When you are contacted by the debt collecting company you have to remember they really don't care about your circumstances the bottom line is to get as much money out of you as possible. Their philosophy is all debtors are habitual liars and will say anything. They will make such ridiculous suggestions as borrow the money from your friends, take the money out of your retirement plan such as a 401(k), use another credit card. All of these ideas are horrible and go against any advice that you would get from a financial planner. I am not saying that you should not pay your debts but don't be intimidated into doing something foolish by one of these agencies. These companies will even call you at work and try to intimidate you. All you have to do is simply state do not call me at my place of employment anymore they must stop that is the law. So if you are intimidated by a debt collecting agency contact the government agencies mentioned above and file a complaint you do have your rights.

The Mountain Story, by Lori Lansens (2015)
2015/11/28 Leave a comment
Wolf Truly takes the Palm Springs aerial tramway on his 18th birthday, intent on ending his life. He is mourning and carrying a heavy guilt for the loss of his best friend Byrd, exactly a year ago on the same mountain. There's no one to miss him – his mother died when he was a preschooler, and his detestable father Frankie is in jail for killing a couple while driving drunk. But the fates have other plans for Wolf, in the form of three hikers who are lost on the mountain, and convince him to help them find the way to Secret Lake. A series of mishaps strands the four on the mountain, desperately trying to survive the harsh November conditions some 8000 feet (2600 metres, higher than Mount Cheam in Chilliwack) above the desert floor. Wolf left his backpack behind and the women were woefully ill-equipped. With virtually no water or food and only one warm coat, the four face the real risk of death. Lansens is a Canadian-born writer now living in Southern California. She draws on her knowledge of the area to create a capricious adversary who torments the hikers with wind that sounds like helicopter wings, icy nights, slippery slopes, the threat of coyotes and mountain lions, and the agonizing realization that civilization is literally within sight but absolutely inaccessible. While overtly this is the story of survival in a wilderness, it's also a coming-of-age story, as the novel is delivered by Wolf as a letter to his own now-grown son Daniel. Lansens successfully manages the time difference so there's no jarring shift in the narrative. She provides none of the historical touches that one would expect – no references to the bands, technology, or fashions of the day. Instead, Wolf tells his story by focusing on the events that led him, Nora, Bridget, and Vonn to the mountain that fateful day, and for the first time tells the entire truth, including a surprising reveal at the end. The characters are generally well developed, and I enjoyed the plot from start to finish. It's not easy reading. Frankie is an awful father, and Wolf's life has little joy outside his awesome friendship with Byrd. In a way, this is also the story of Wolf's survival to adulthood, despite the conditions of his life. There are moments of humour to lighten the mood, and I even laughed out loud a couple of times. A couple of plot twists annoyed me (the loss of the log bridge made me roll my eyes) but overall, this is a strong story that will keep the reader interested to the very end.

I just commented back on the questions and comments on my post, "It's in", so if you wrote me there, then you have a little note waiting for you. :)
Also, there's something I wanted to share with my sewing friends... I know many of you probably already read "Feelin' Feminine", so may already have seen this, but in case you don't, here's an interesting tutorial on how to add fabric to a slit in a skirt. I've tried sewing slits up before and then was not able to walk in the skirt, so this looks like a great solution to the problem!
I thought and thought of what to call my blog and finally decided to name it what I did. The reason: My name, Cora means "Maiden" and my middle name, Beth means "House of God". I am so glad to be a part of God's family!

Being an IT-professional with long experience of both ICT, journalism and relations to mention. With education within electronics and several branches of the ICT industry, I embrace challenges outside the much-spoken-of "comfort zone" to gain new knowledge and skills.
When challenges are succeeded – repeat the process.
As of fall 2015 I have completed a bachelor degree in information science (BASV-INFO) at the University of Bergen with focus on software development and motivational- and organization psychology. As of spring 2016, I have been enrolled as student for the work- and organizational psychology (BAPS-AOP) at the same university expected due summer 2018.
I have been awarded with the MVP since 2014 and as of 2017 a microsoft OneDrive Expert. I have been a frequent speaker at various local seminars, TechDays Sweden, at Nordic Infrastructure Conference (NIC) and Ignite. Challenging the everlasting exponential curve of the technological development, I also lecture and perform key-note speeches at seminars and conferences.
Also recognized for the following awards; Microsoft Windows and Devices for IT ITpro MVP, MCTS – Windows 7 Configuration, CPS – Canon Professional System
