To W. M. Ryer, M.D., Dr.
To medical services rendered by order of Colonel Adam Johnston, United States Indian agent, California, to the Indians of the We-chil-la, Sue-ca-ah, Co-ta-plane-mis, Chap-po-sans and Sage-nom-nas tribes, located on this reserve, in the month of June, for the vaccination of two hundred and thirty-six men and boys, and for the treatment of them during the diffferent stages of the vaccine disease--------$472.00
For the vaccination of two hundred and four women and girls, and treatment during the vaccine disease--------------------$408.00
For the treatment of thirty-five cases of primary syphilis---$210.00
Total $1090.00
In submitting this bill, I would very respectfully call your attention to the
expenses incident to the treatment of the above. Thus, in addition to the medicines and adjuvants which I furnished for the curation of disease, I have also found it necessary, because of the ignorance of the Indian, to temploy persons as attendants upon the sick; so that I may be able to insure success to my practice and prevent accidents in the administration of the medicines. These and my individual expenses are so large, that I cannot, consistently with justic to myself, submit a bill of less price than the within.
I have the honor to be
very respectfully
your obdt servt.
W. M. Ryer.

What child (or adult) has not had trouble making up his or her mind? Dr. Seuss in his posthumously published book What Pet Should I Get? delightfully captures this common dilemma in trademark Seuss rhyme and illustrations. This picture book would be a perfect read aloud and prompt for a personal narrative writing exercise.
· Can you describe a time when you had trouble making up your mind?
· Did you ever end up with nothing because you couldn't choose just one thing?
· What factors made your decision difficult?
· Did you make your final decision alone or with the help of someone else?
· How did you feel when you finally chose?
· Did you regret your decision later?
Students can brainstorm as a class with the questions above before writing individual essays. Encourage students to write about situations beyond choosing a pet. Make lists of all the things people make decisions about on a daily basis. ie: clothes, food, television shows. Discuss times when students have made a decision to please someone else, like buying a gift or planning a party. Name important decisions people make during their lives. ie: choosing a school, a house, a car, a job, a spouse. Decision making is an integral part of our lives and something we do on a daily, even hourly basis.
And trouble making up your mind is an experience students from all backgrounds can relate to, making it a slam dunk prompt for writing personal narratives.
Happy Writing!

It's that special time of year again: Festifall, when the Diag is overrun with hundreds of student clubs and organizations, whose leaders and representatives are working their best marketing and recruiting strategies. (Candy works well. So does shouting, depending on what section you're in.)
During the annual Festifall, you may find religious groups of every denomination, academic and honor societies, performing arts groups, fraternities and sororities, cultural groups, sports clubs, and activism organizations. At any given time, one might come across a female rugby player, an entrepreneur dressed in a shark costume, or a guy passing out condoms.
It's like Times Square out there, friends laughing and navigating their way through the crowd to find that one club — that one life-changing organization, orchestra, or a cappella group — before graduation rears its ugly head.
Come meet some of the best and brightest on campus these days. These students are overachieving, hardworking, multi-tasking, and, apparently, brilliant.

Julie & Julia, et al
March 6th, 2011 (11:14 pm)
Remember Julie & Julia? The story (at least partially) of how Julia Child worked herself into becoming Julia Child, and Julie Powell worked herself from a blog into a career?
Most people know that that story started when Powell decided to make all 524 recipes in Mastering the Art of French Cooking in 365 days.
Well, now there's Lawrence Dai and the The Lawrence/Julie & Julia Project. Lawrence takes it one step further, deciding to watch Julie and Julia every day for a year and blog about *that*.
He's currently at Day 97. And yeah, it's going about as well as you might think at this point:
Day 1: I promise to dedicate as much of my attention as I can to this incredible, generation-defining film and the blog entries that accompany it.
Day 95: Wake up, Julie Powell. You don't get points for doing something completely derivative of someone else's life's work. - above a picture of him in the same pose at his keyboard as Julie Powell is at her keyboard and Julia Child is at her typewriter. Un-hunh.
At least he has a sense of humor about the whole thing... so far:

Inactive Bite Ice Fishing
By: Bob Bohland
The most frustrating thing in ice fishing is knowing you are on fish and seeing them on your flasher or underwater camera, but not being able to get them to bite. Through the course of a winter I encounter this quite often on the metro lakes I fish. Often times it is caused by fishing pressure due to the lake being popular or heavily fished due to a tournament, but it can also be caused by changes in weather patterns. Many anglers either immediately switch to micro presentations or throw in the towel all together. However, in tournament situations, giving up really isnt a viable option, so I have been forced to come up with a variety of different tactics for catching these inactive fish.
One of the most important things to consider when targeting neutral or negative fish is how your jig appears in the water. Often times fish havent completely shut down, they simply want something presented in a very specific way. More often than not this means a horizontal presentation. While fish can be caught on vertical presentations when they are actively feeding, switching to a horizontal presentation is sometimes the only way to catch them. I have had days when my jig being off horizontal by 10 degrees would make the fish ignore my offering altogether. The best way to ensure your jig fishes properly is to view it in water before you get on the ice. Whether it be by putting it in a bucket of water, or the tank on the back of the toilet, knowing how your jig will sit in the water with different knots, plastics, jigging motions, etc. is invaluable. My favorite knot for ice fishing is the improved clinch knot. It tightens up against the eyelet of the jig and allows me to adjust how the lure sits in the water. This is very helpful in that not every lure will sit horizontal when the knot is straight up off the eyelet. An important thing to pay close attention to is the diameter of your line. If you are using too heavy of a line, there will be loose coils between your rod tip and the jig. This can cause missed fish due to light bites not being felt at the rod tip or seen on a spring bobber. The fish will sometimes bite light enough to only take the slack out of the line but no move a spring bobber. With todays modern reels and advancements in line strength 1 to 2lb test is not too light with a proper drag setting, and will allow almost any jig to tighten the line.
While a horizontal presentation is the first thing I will try during a light bite, it doesnt mean it is the only one that will work. I have had fish that will be picky enough to choose only a strictly vertical presentation as well. Sometimes they even want a presentation that is at an angle. This is why one of my rods is always rigged up with a Lindy Genz Bug. The jig is designed in such a way that by rotating my knot, I can adjust from vertical to horizontal or anything in between in a matter of seconds instead of having to retie with numb fingers. Another variation I was shown by one of the NAIFC competitors was the verti-zontal presentation. This consists of a vertical jig with a plastic such as a Micro-Mino half threaded onto the hook so that the plastic stays horizontal. The tail moves quite a bit with even the slightest quiver of the rod tip when rigged this way.
Another thing to consider is how to jig the lure. A lot has been said about how an angler should or shouldnt jig. For me though, I always start with a pound of some sort. For those of you who arent familiar with the pound, it is achieved by pounding down the tip of your rod like you would with a hammer but on a much smaller scale. You are trying to get the jig to almost rock, where the head of the jig stays almost still but the plastic or bait bucks around like the lure is trying to swim. This will often get the most inactive fish to commit when done long enough. Sometimes the pound should be interrupted with a rip of the rod tip, or even a dead stop. The pound will lure the fish in, and the fact that something changes will cause the fish to react. One of my favorite ways to jig when fish are inactive however, is to swim the jig. This is basically a much slowed down version of the pound, but there are times when pounding a jig is often too much for the fish and they will scare away from too much action. Let your flasher dictate what kind of jigging motion to use. And if a fish is coming in, dont change or pause unless the fish has been at your bait for several seconds.
The best advice I can give any angler when they encounter inactive fish is to move, somewhere on that body of water, there is a fish or group of fish that is active and it does you no good to sit on the inactive ones and waste your time. There are times though, that moving to find active fish is not feasible. Such as tournaments where the boundaries are limited, or there are areas of unsafe ice. Give these tactics a try the next time you find yourself on a finicky bite, they may just turn some of those sniffers into biters.
Good Fishin,

Damnernsaduak is believed to be one of a well-known and an attractuve travelling sites. Historically, Damnoenssaduak was actually the name of the canal dug in the reign of King Rama IV by the military men and the people of Rajburi, Samutsakorn and Samutsongkram Province directed by Phayasrisuriyawong, the minister of Defence. In those days without rivers and canals, transportation was almost motionless; King Rama IV with his great concern over the country's future economic growth, he finally had the canal dug to connect the Taachin River in Samutsakorn Province and Maklong River in Samutsongkram Province together.Nowadays Damnoensaduak is one of a provincial district of Rajburi Province. Most people live densely along both sides of the canal from one end of the canal to another.The majority of this people are agriculturists.They grow several different kinds of fruit and vegetable for examples oranges, grapes, papayas, cabbages, bean, onion and etc. The land in this area is naturally fertile. Apart from providing transportation, Damnoensaduak Canal also provides farmers with adequate water for agricultural purposes for the whole year around. More than 200 small canals were dug by local peasants to connect with it to get water to splatter their land. Moreover; these small canals also become protitiouus ways of taking their agricultural products to the markets in neighbouring provinces and Bangkok.
A floating market is a market where merchandise is sold from boats. Originating in times and places where water transport played an important role in daily life, most floating markets operating today mainly serve as tourist attractions, and are chiefly found in Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. Damnoen Saduak Floating Market in Ratchaburi, Thailand, is one of the most famously known floating markets, and a major tourist destination.
Day in and day out from about 6 a.m. to about 11 a.m. the Floating Market is routinely crowded with hundrreds of vendors and purchasers floating in their small rowing boats selling and buying or exchanging their goods.
What they purchase are particularly food, fruit and vegetable which mostly brought from their own orchards.
They usually travel on their small rowing boats.
however; today the long-tailed boats pushing by engine become very popular. People tend to use them instead. Anyhow because of the shortage of fuel today long-tailed boats are quite unavailable compared to a few years ago.
Floating market at Damnoen Saduak is the old traditional way of selling vegetables, fruits,etc from a small boat. The excellent quality soil beside the canal is very fertile and suitable for growing many kinds of fruits and vegetables.The area is famous for Malacca grape, Chinese grapefruit, mangoes, bananas, and coconut. Thai style canoes laden with colourful, succulent fruits, vegetables, sweets and meats, gently ply their way through the canal.

Just like the comparison of "winter" this year and previous ones, it's interesting to look at the condition of this year's drought conditions. The front lawn area is where this year's drought is most evident. The brown lawn looks more like something one sees in California than what one would expect in southeastern Michigan.
From Thursday morning (July 25, 2012):
Compare it with July 23, 2011:
September 7, 2010 (couldn't find a photo from the end of July):
July 23, 2009:
And although the lake appears to continue to be nice and blue and stable, it actually has continued to drop quite precipitously (considering that it's a spring fed lake and all). To wit:
On Thursday afternoon (July 25, 2012), you can see the matted bottom starting to show through the algal mat:
whereas two months ago (May 25, 2012) it was a channel deep enough for it to be a usable fish passage:

Bring many cushions for your baby to crawl over them. If you have several sack-chairs, all the better! Because it is a bit hard and very funny for the baby to crawl over them. Put chairs and a table to crawl under them. You can even bring long fabric tunnels so your baby can crawl through them. You can play a game when your baby chases you around the objects.
All you need to do is just to crawl with your baby. Even if your baby can already walk, she still should crawl. But if your baby cannot crawl encourage her by putting your hands on her feet. Even pulling herself along on her stomach will be the first step to do this.
The best way to inspire your baby to crawl, is to tempt her to move from one place to another in order to reach a toy or something else interesting laying in another corner of the room.
You should know
– Crawling is the way most babies move around the space.
– For the brain to form the muscular and neural connections needed for crawling, the infant needs to spend much time on the carpet on his stomach.
– Crawling is a very important stage, not only in learning to walk, but the way the brain is programmed. It is essential for helping of the two hemispheres of the brain to work together. There is evidence that if the stage of crawling is skipped or if the infant has not spent enough time crawling, this can result in poor concentration, poor coordination, hyperactivity and difficulties in learning to read or write Crawling strengthens baby's muscles preparing her for walking. Arms, legs and back muscles are being strengthened for the baby not to fall down on the floor.
– Moving across the room in a crisscross patterning of arms and legs – whether crawling on all fours or creeping on the stomach – uses both brain hemispheres and enhances learning and coordination.

Using an open source learning management system (LMS) such as Moodle is a viable option for businesses – large and small.
The eLearning market has seen remarkable growth in the last decade and this expansion is expected to accelerate at a scorching pace. Analysts at Ambient Insights have predicted a 4.4% increase in the global spending on self-paced eLearning over the next five years with an estimated revenue of $53 billion in 2018.
The demand for online courses is no longer restricted to developed nations. It has evolved into a global phenomenon with developing economies taking the lead in creating and utilizing virtual learning ecosystems.
Other businesses have long recognized the benefits of eLearning programs for employee training, client support and customer retention, but grapple with the same questions that stump your decision making team –
Which Learning Management System (LMS) should you choose?
With numerous LMS options available, why should your business adopt the Moodle system?
An open source system
Moodle is an open source eLearning software. Unlike large corporations that have the required capital to install an expensive enterprise LMS with costly licensing fees, a small or medium sized business cannot afford proprietary software. If you are unwilling to pay licensing fees or spend on an costly LMS, get Moodle for your organization. While you have to bear hosting and server charges, using a learning-cum-course management system such as Moodle limits your cash liability. You can utilize the funds to create basic or customized courseware for various training, compliance, marketing and support initiatives.
Scalable and Configurable
As your business evolves and develops, you need a learning application that is scalable and flexible to fit the organization structure and workflow. Moodle enables the creation of hundreds of courses and handling of user enrollments based on the server and hosting capacity. As Moodle is an open source software, you can make use of newer functionalities, plugins and modules created by developers. While you are most likely to start off with a couple of courses for your staff, clients or customers, this learning software system proves to be an adaptable and configurable product when you are ready to ramp up your services.
Compatible with external systems
A lot of LMS software tend to be closed systems. You can create training courses and feedback assignments through in-built tools provided in the software. Integration with other content systems and migration of data and files is limited or non-existent. Moodle, on the other hand, is a virtual learning system which supports external software. You can embed learning objects created with a specialist application into the lessons or courses. You can create graphics, movies or screenshots with other software and enhance the content with visual material. Collaboration tools such as Google Docs; content management tools such as Joomla, Drupal and Facebook; authentication processes including LDAP, Google app, and WordPress Ecommerce are some of the third-party applications supported by Moodle.
Looking for some examples of integration with wordpress ecommerce and moodle or even drupal ubercart and moodle, let us know email@example.com or call us 91-9916650872 , we can demo the solution for you.
Your business can't reap the benefits of a Moodle based community platform or client support program, unless it's topped by an efficient hosting system with adequate security. While Moodle is a secure application with appropriate admin settings, it is only as good as its server security. The LMS software is actively updated and comes with an in-built virus checker for external files. Moodle has a security team that handles updates and helps site and hosting administrators to update their systems.
A business with an established IT setup can run Moodle based courses and lessons through its internal servers. When you cater to a wide group of staff members or clients on a regional or global basis, hosting through a trusted Moodle partner is a better option. Businesses have the additional choice of choosing specialist hosting providers with knowledgeable staff and efficient support service.

Beet & goat cheese salad is a terrific starter course for any dinner party. You'll enjoy the combination of flavors and textures in this easy dish.
I think I could eat a salad every day. In fact, a few years ago {when we were eating super healthy} I think I did! I love the freshness of ingredients, the combination of flavors & textures, and the ease in which they are prepared. And when hosting a dinner party I think it's a solid go-to course to round out the meal.
I made this beet & goat cheese salad for the Greek themed dinner party here, and it's a great mix between the creaminess of the cheese, the crunchiness of the nuts, and the burst of flavor from the beets. Toss it with a light vinaigrette and it's a fantastic starter to any sit down dinner.
Beet & Goat Cheese Salad
- Prepared Spring Mix salad greens
- Sliced beets from a can, drained and patted dry
- 3 oz log Goat Cheese
- Chopped Walnuts, lightly toasted
- Balsamic or Red Wine Vinaigrette dressing
Cut the sliced beets into thin strips.
Cut or crumble the goat cheese into bite-sized portions.
Layer greens, beets, and goat cheese on salad plates, and sprinkle with walnuts.
Drizzle with Balsamic Vinaigrette and serve.
TIP: Make your own dressing by combining 3 Tablespoons balsamic or red wine vinegar, 1 Tablespoon dijon mustard, 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, and salt & pepper to taste. Whisk together vinegar & mustard while slowly pouring in olive oil.
What are some of your favorite salad ingredients, and do you always serve a salad for entertaining? Would love to hear from you!
Have a great day.

What Is the Average Cost of Silica Fume Per Ounce/Gram/Pound? Average Silica Fume Price?
Once a cheap product, silica fume is now in high demand. It is often used as a high-cost admixture that is mainly for bridges and other structures that generally require top weathering and high strength. Concrete that is made from silica fume is quite expensive. The powdery fineness of the fume makes it hard to handle. Silica fume is also called condensed silicon dust. The prices of silica fume has been on the rise in recent years and its average cost is in the range of $600to $1,500 per ton, depending on the type.

About Su
Hi my name is Su. Well a bit about me... I love dogs and have always had dogs in the family at most points in my life, and more recently owned my own dog. Unfortunately my dog Sheila died a few years ago. I now live on my own and work full time so cannot have my own dog. However I'm a volunteer dog walker for Cardiff Dogs Home, so still manage to get my dog fix somehow. I also dog sit for friends whenever I can.
The photos in my profile were taken whilst out walking for the Dogs Home and dog sitting my friend's new pup :)
I am at the moment off work with a broken foot and so would really appreciate a bit of dog company in the meantime..! I anticipate being off for the next 3/4 weeks. I'm available for doggy daycare most days of the week including some weekends. I obviously can't offer much in the way of walks, but I can offer plenty of fuss, attention and cwtches :)
I have my own small ground floor flat with access to an enclosed rear garden. Thanks for reading and look forward to meeting you and your dog soon. Su
UPDATE - I am now back in work so only available for dog walks and sitting evenings and weekends. Please check out my calendar for availability. Thank you :)

If buying a plane ticket to China isn't on your summer "to do" list, then visiting the Terracotta Warriors at the Cincinnati Museum of Art might just be the ticket. Well, at least for people in North America. Terracotta Army: Legacy of the First Emperor of China is on exhibit now through August 12, 2018 at the Cincinnati Art Museum.
A Worthwhile Introduction
The exhibit doesn't have the impact of seeing 8,000 life-size terracotta warriors and horses like you will when you visit the original site outside the city of Xi'an in Shaanxi province, China. But, the 9 life-size terracotta figures, a cavalry horse, and 120 objects drawn from 14 Chinese museums and archaeological institutions do an excellent job of illustrating the evolution and development of the Qin people from a tribe to an empire under the leadership of Ying Zheng (259-210 B.C.), the king of the Qin. More than 40 works in the exhibit have never before been on display in the United States.
The exhibit does more than just inspire history buffs and world travelers to take a trip to China, it also tells the story of the significant contributions made by the Qin dynasty to the civilization of the world.
A Significant 20th Century Discovery
In 1974, a local farmer digging a well outside the city of Xi'an found pottery shards and bronze arrows near the mausoleum of Ying Zheng. This led to the discovery of the terracotta warriors and horses, one of the most significant archaeological finds in the 20th century. The mausoleum was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. It is considered to be one of the wonders of the world.
Under the leadership of the Qin king, the seven states of China were unified, a standard form of currency was established, a standard form of writing was created, and a system of weights and measures formed. These developments were monumental in the progress of civilization as we know it today.
If You Go
The family guide for this exhibit is well written and engaging. The "guide" to help the younger audience understand the significance of the exhibit is the Emperor at age 13, the year he became king.
Timed tickets for Terracotta Army: Legacy of the First Emperor of China are free for museum members and available for purchase by the general public at the front desk of the museum and online at cincinnatimuseum.org. General adult admission tickets are $16, $8 for college students, seniors (65+) and children (6-17 years.) Free access to the exhibition is available on Thursdays from 5-8 p.m. and 5-9 p.m. during Art After Dark events on June 29 and July 27. Although the tickets are free during these evening periods, timed tickets are still required.
General admission and parking are always free at the Cincinnati Art Museum. The museum is open Tuesday-Sunday, 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Thursdays 11 a.m.-8 p.m.

Black Lives Matter thinks the weather is racist
Black Lives Matter UK's protest against the climate shows how vacuous their movement really is
"Today we are saying that the climate crisis is a racist crisis. On the one hand Britain is the biggest contributor per capita to global temperature change. It is also one of the least vulnerable to the effects of climate change. On the other hand, seven of the 10 countries most vulnerable to climate change are in sub-Saharan Africa."
Edgy transatlantic outfit Black Lives Matter have been officially downgraded to 'outright loons' after a video revealed the bizarre motive behind their latest prank at London's City Airport.
The irksome fabricators of phantom racism are claiming their stunt, in which nine stooges blocked one of the runways to prevent a plane (and its wealthy, supposedly all-white passengers) from departing, was to bring the bigoted nature of air pollution and the "climate crisis" to our attention.
Black Lives Matter present anthropogenic global warming as a Trojan Horse against coloured people: a clandestine, James Bond-esque weapon of genocide unleashed to whitewash planet Earth. Presumably, this transcendent contraption can single out its victims and smite them from the sky with pinpoint accuracy. It's the most ambitious climate theory since God-botherers blamed flooding on gay marriage.
Now, most people are aware that the environment is more or less uncontrollable and indiscriminate: it cannot be programmed to hit precise 'targets', it doesn't have a mind of its own and the impact of specific human behaviour on it is impossible to trace. The fact that Black Lives Matter say otherwise should serve as a reminder that stoking division and conflict is the group's primary concern.
Indeed, far-left mobs – along with their adjacent, often inseparable far-right counterparts – are known to muddle cause and effect to inculpate their chosen scapegoat, be it 'cracker-ass honkeys' in this case, or gays if you're a religious fanatic. The decorations may be different, but the nuts and bolts are essentially the same.
Neither side promotes unity, and their followers don't consider evidence, logic or the individual when passing judgement. Black Lives Matter, for example, rely on the Dulux colour chart instead. And if you happen to sit few a shades shy of 'caramel cream', then you are – without exception – rich, white and complicit to a pogrom.
The only fundamental distinction between the far-left and far-right is that the former canvass support by pretending not to be prejudiced, but don't be fooled by the climate of hysteria: the weather may not be racist, but Black Lives Matter certainly are. And on top of that, they are completely and utterly insane.

Untitled 1 by Bell & Clixby
performed in August, 2016 at the Jam handy in Detroit as part of AUNTS x DETROIT
Untitled 4
Collaboritive performance with movement by Biba Bell and Meg Clixby, sculptures by Dana Bell and sound by Lindsay "VIKI" Karty
2.18.15 Poses For Communication at Roulette (excerpt)
Dana Bell's Poses for Communication playfully explores the physical language of performed communication. Two dancers perform a duet which examines the formalist elements of ritualized movement-- specifically contrasting the poses associated with ballet and yoga (respectively), in doing so juxtaposing their divergent origins and guiding intentions. The origins of ballet as an etiquette based system in Renaissance European Courts as spectacle and interactive communion is in deliberately mismatched dialogue with yogic asanas which, while historically conceived as channels to interior connection, now have outer meaning-- they are the contemporary silhouettes of centeredness, a balanced life, the sacred. Behind dancers Meg Clixby and Helen Schreiner is projected video, in which the poses become abstracted as geometry, and the dancers themselves become semaphores, flattened as an apparatus for visual signaling. Whereas the dancers appear in classic modern dance costume and wigs to reinforce a stock anonymity, the style of the video draws from the time when yoga was introduced to the West, its structure and coloration hearkening to psychedelic imagery. Richard Hoffman's score for the piece translates as an art rock exploration of Eastern music. The dramatic elements of the score serve as a point of humor in opposition to the control and blankness of the movement, an apparatus highlighting the absurdity of cultural flattening and appropriation within contemporary culture.
3.16.15 Join Forces with Me @ Movement Research at the Judson Church
Join Forces With Me The body is a site of gendered labor that often exhausts and isolates. In Dana Bell's newest work in progress Join Forces With Me, formalist exercises of interdependence are seen as a vehicle of relief and rupture for the taxed body. Minimalist, propulsive drumming and a vivid, loud color palette set a tone of urgency. Struggle is interrupted by moments of mutually supported extension, uplift, and exhale around a figurative maypole. Strength is found in connectedness; Join Forces With Me is an expression of promise. Early in 2015, I began work on a new project exploring the impact, in particular the psychosocial legacies, of gendered labor. The above statement served as the program notes to the first iteration of the piece, which was performed as part of Movement Research at Judson Church in March of this year. Join Forces With Me takes on the conception of "women's work", how this divisive ideological designation has manifested in our lives and on the historical body. It seeks to find points of rupture, spaces for reconstruction. Central to the piece was the use of fabric: a signifier of hard-fought connection, the vehicle facilitating the struggle, a communal fulcrum of personal agency and liberation. While I'd previously examined the ethnology of dress, in terms of performative masquerade, recently fabric itself has become an integral prop in my work. An object with implicit potential, to be enacted upon. This has impelled me towards research on textiles, their historical roots, and the evolving material culture surrounding their creation. I'm inspired to explore how this history plays out in my choreography, video, and photography. Industrialization began with labor-intensive industries, such as the textile and garment industry. Relying on meagerly-paid immigrant labor, mass production took what had formerly been domestic work out of the home. On the Lower East Side, workers reflected Ellis Island registries: Germans and native-born, rurally-raised Americans initially serviced the garment industry (prior to 1850), then Irish immigrants (1850-80), followed by Eastern European Jews and Italians (1880-1930), Puerto Ricans (1920-2000) and more recently Asians and Dominicans (1990-present). As I understand it, it was towards the end of the 19th Century when women joined the ranks of garment workers. First in their tenement apartments, while simultaneously tending to their families (see photographs below by Jacob Riis and Lewis Hines, the fathers of documentary social photography), and later in sweatshops. The realities of sweatshop life—long hours, low wages, crowded and unsafe conditions—united a critical mass of workers. As described by Hearts & Minds (http://www.heartsandminds.org/articles/sweat.htm): "In 1900, workers formed the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union (ILGWU) to organize against low wages and unsafe working conditions. In November 1909, ILGWU organized the first garment workers' strike, known as "The Great Revolt". The protest brought 60,000 New York City garment workers to the streets to fight for their rights. Women and children on the picket lines were beaten or targeted with guns. Yet, ILGWU prevailed, winning wage and hour standards and impartial arbitration of disputes." This, no doubt, created a more effective organizational structure, and a more germane political environment for Suffrage. The right to vote for the first time gave women legal agency over their lives, specifically their material world, and ultimately their bodies.

Psychic Effects: Tug Of War
"Psychic Effects" is the conceptual framework of a five-act performance opera by artist Dana Bell. The total work re-configures renowned color theorist Josef Albers' concept of relational aesthetics of colors as a contemporary psychosocial phenomenon: society's stereotypes of women captured and dramatized in classic Hollywood films as they relate to real life, particularly within the artist's own matriarchal family structure. This video is in part documentation of the opening segment of a live performance, which introduces the larger project, titled "A Delicate Balance." This first act examines the syndrome of hysterical collapse, as dramatized by a who's who of great actresses. Interpreted and excerpted performances of the descent into madness include Gena Rowlands in husband John Cassavetes's A Woman Under The Influence (1974), Faye Dunway, as Joan Crawford, in Mommie Dearest (1981), Katharine Hepburn in Sidney Lumet's version of Eugene O'Neill's Long Days Journey Into Night (1962), and Vivien Leigh in A Streetcar Named Desire (1951). "A Delicate Balance" focuses on repeated hysterical movements culled from these classic films, expressed simultaneously in choreography, video, costume and accompanying music. For this video documentation, the dancers shown reenact these actresses gestures against the backdrop of the artist's personal history. The performance takes place on a beach in Long Island, New York where the artist's family has retreated every summer since the 1950s. The beach, along with the colors represented in the fabric prop have great personal significance for the artist. In the primary colors lay the contrasts between the women in her family. Red symbolizes strength, Blue represents emotion and Green envy. The performers represent the language of the hysterical woman through formal color - they step out of their live performance (which accompanies the film clips of the gestures they re-work) and they step into the fabric trying on each set of characteristics, tying themselves together, creating a united existence, one that is not trounced by the exterior world. On the beach, amidst this personal history, the performers play a game, a tug of war. But with no end to the "rope", a game no can possibly win. Meg Clixby, Kerry Davis and Leah Retherford perform.

This is the debut production of Psychic Effects: Agonies, performed at Union Pool in Brooklyn on November 29, 2011. The performers include Dena Bai, Meg Clixby, Kerry Davis, Liza Corsillo, and Talice Lee. John Colpitts is on percussion. "Psychic Effects" is both the troupe's name and the name of a five-act performance opera I am developing. It reconfigures color theorist Josef Albers' concept of the relational aesthetics of colors into a contemporary psychosocial phenomenon: society's stereotypes of hysterical women captured and dramatized in classic Hollywood films as they relate to real life, particularly within my own matriarchal family structure. Thus far, the acts of "Psychic Effects" include"Tug Of War," "A Delicate Balance," and "Agonies."

Yachad held an essay contest for all participants in this year's Ramp it Up! summer program. The "rampers" were asked, "What did you learn from Ramp it Up?" Out of the twenty-one participants, we chose Jacob Korn's essay. Congrats, Jacob!
Jacob Korn of Washington, DC, pictured second from the left
After participation in the Ramp it Up! program, I feel that many parts of me have changed in terms of ho I view the world. For one, I have attained a true appreciation for the work of construction workers and for others in related professions. Before this experience, I had never worked on a project even remotely similar. I was really glad that we as a group were able to stick with each other until the very end and put together a terrific ramp. Another thing that I learned as a result of this project was to be truly grateful for what I have. The man, Gregory, for whom we built the ramp, was just minding his own business when several individuals assaulted him. Not long after the attack Gregory suffered a stroke which put him in a wheelchair and impaired his speech, among other things. What happen to Gregory could happen to anyone, and was incredibly unlucky that he was the one to whom the attack occurred.
During the past week I learned a lot about construction. Prior to this program, I had no experience using power tools or even working very much with wood. After completing the program, I feel that I have attained a good knowledge of many things from simply cutting a slab of wood to reading a blueprint. Every morning the carpenter assigned to the project, Roy, would divide us up into 3 or 4 groups and we would all receive specific assignments. Around noon, after completing these assignments, we would break for lunch. We would then be put into new groups and be given new projects for the afternoon. We quickly learned to work together well and after just a day or two we had a good knowledge on using the power tools. Just about all the people participating in the program with the exclusion of Roy and Jose, another carpenter, had none or very limited experience working in this type of environment; however, at the conclusion of the project we had all learned a ton about not only using different tools but also how to work well as a group.
Another thing that I learned as a part of the program was to be especially grateful for all of the opportunities that I have and also just fo simple things that people look past on a regular basis. The man for whom we built the ramp was unfortunate and was at the wrong place at the wrong time, eventually leading to the loss of use of his legs and making it difficult for him to speak. An additional thing for which we should all be more grateful is the fact that we have parents that make sure there is food on the table and care for us. As we all learned from Kendra's short lesson, anyone can fall into poverty without warning. Something small such as an injury could lead to you losing your job. For many when you aren't receiving a paycheck you can't pay your rent, which leads to your being evicted for your apartment and possibly, having to live on the streets. The cycle goes on and on and can affect anybody. Gregory was fortunate to have a loving daughter and other family members who steeped in and were able to help him get back on his feet after he was assaulted.
I feel that participating in the ramp it up program was a really powerful experience for me because it opened up my eyes to how fortunate I am and to be more grateful for the small things in life that I take for granted. In or everyday lives we don't stop to think about how lucky we are, concentrating more on the things we feel we are missing. We have to learn to focus on the small things and be determined to give help to those who are less fortunate.

While a few extra pounds may not seem like a big deal, they can increase your chances of having high blood pressure and high blood sugar. These conditions may lead to serious health problems, including heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers.
FDA recommends you evaluate weight loss after 12 weeks of treatment. If you have not lost at least 3% of your body weight on Qsymia 7.5mg/46mg, stop Qsymia or increase dose. If you have not lost at least 5% of your body weight after 12 weeks on Qsymia 15mg/92mg, stop Qsymia because it is unlikely to work.
Adults who are overweight (Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27 to 29.9) with a weight-related problem (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease) or are obese (BMI of 30 or higher)
Medium track record means that new' unexpected side effects are possible. Qsymia was approved by FDA in 2012 based on studies where about 2,300 people took approved doses of the drug for 12 months. As with all new drugs, rare but serious side effects may emerge after the drug is on the market when larger numbers of people - with other conditions and on other medications - have used the drug.
FDA is requiring the company to conduct studies to answer open questions about possible increased chance of heart attacks and strokes or kidney damage from the drug
Including topiramate and phentermine (or other sympathomimetic amines)
Qsymia passes into breast milk and can harm your baby
Not tested in children younger than 18
Qsymia has not been tested in this situation
Do not take: Controlled human studies show Qsymia harms baby and potential benefits do not outweigh potential harms (FDA Category X)
Do not breastfeed while taking Qsymia - either stop breastfeeding or stop Qsymia

Investigators at PETA China have just released bone-chilling footage of workers violently ripping rabbit fur from the animals bodies as they scream in pain, to fuel the growing angora industry. In a campaign launched just as the super consuming day of Black Friday is about to descend upon us, PETA reveals the grim footage in hopes to curb the sale of this cruel material. Each of the rabbits endures this horrific ripping of their skin every three months for two to five years, until they are put to death.
The blood curdling imagery comes from a secret PETA investigator at a factory in China, where the world sources over 90 percent of its angora fur. After the workers yank the fur right from the rabbits' skin, the animals are left in shock and pain, then placed back into their dirty, cramped cages.
PETA is asking their loyal members of 3 million to help circulate this footage to not only stop the sale of angora, but to show those who aren't in the know just what the angora label means, dispelling the myth that the animals are not harmed and that their fur is simply shaved before woven into expensive scarves, sweaters and hats. Even rabbits in factories where the shearing method is used are continually abused, as the shearing process requires their arms and legs to be tethered, and many are cut before being returned to their tiny cages.
PETA's study was conducted in nine angora factories in China, all of which were found to severely abuse the rabbits used for their fur.

Hulk Hogan appears at Phillies camp, says he wants to leg drop Vince McMahon
Hulkamania was running wild at Philadelphia Phillies camp Friday as the man himself, Hulk Hogan, made an appearance before and during their Grapefruit League game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
[Batter up: Join a Yahoo Fantasy Baseball league for free today]
The 64-year-old Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, has been out of the professional wrestling limelight since the summer of 2015 when a racist rant recorded in 2007 cost him his job with World Wrestling Entertainment. He hasn't made too many notable public appearances since then. Friday was one of his biggest as he spent time mingling with Phillies fans, players and coaches, including former manager Charlie Manuel.
He even found time to take an apparent dig at former boss, WWE CEO Vince McMahon.
Hulk Hogan was asked during the Phillies broadcast if he could drop one last leg drop on someone, who would it be?
"I would drop that leg right on Vince McMahon's head."
— Marcus Vanderberg (@marcowill) March 9, 2018
Ever the showman, Hogan seems to relish blurring the line between reality and fiction. Any real tension with the WWE figurehead wouldn't be too surprising though given how their most recent working agreement ended nearly three years ago. Not only was Hogan's contract terminated, his likeness was removed from the WWE's Hall of Fame.
Many wonder if the day will ever come where Hogan will be welcomed back into WWE. With WWE's signature event, Wrestlemania, one month away, now is the time when that speculation reaches overdrive. So far, there's no inkling his status is changed, but the WWE is often full of surprises.
Apparently, so too is new Phillies manager Gabe Kapler. Hogan's appearance, while not universally praised by fans, seemed to go over well with Phillies players.

Hogan spent nearly two years embroiled in a legal battle with Gawker Media over the unauthorized release of a sex tape. It was in that video that Hogan's racist rant was made public. Hogan was rewarded a $31 million settlement in 2016. He's since apologized for his actions, but faces a tougher battle to rehabilitate his image.
Perhaps more appearances like Friday's will help.

Do you or a loved one suffer from psoriasis? If not, you may not realize how common and challenging a condition it can be. In fact, psoriasis affects close to 7.5 million Americans. Along with the well-known red patches of skin, psoriasis can cause embarrassment, low self-esteem, isolation and depression — even for those in the public eye, like pop icon Cyndi Lauper.
Lauper joined the National Psoriasis Foundation to launch the "I'm PsO ready" campaign to bring national attention to psoriasis, explaining that she has struggled for years with the disease that has made her want to hide and leaves her feeling frustrated and hopeless.
"Psoriasis can come from seemingly nowhere, causing its sufferers to feel powerless over the disease," says Fatemeh Lashgari, a registered nurse in the Sharp Rees-Stealy dermatology department. "People can be afraid to touch psoriasis sufferers or even get near them because they don't know what it is. If left untreated, it can be a socially isolating disease due to fear and a lack of understanding."
Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that results in red, scaly patches on the skin. Although there are five types of psoriasis, the most common is plaque psoriasis. Raised, scaly patches appear on the elbows, knees or scalp — though it can develop anywhere, even on the eyelids and genital area. Sufferers often complain of itchiness, burning and pain.
The disease affects men and women equally, usually developing between the ages of 15 and 35. It is not contagious or infectious, but its appearance can cause discomfort, confusion and concern. Those with psoriasis are also at risk for developing other conditions, such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, hypertension and Crohn's disease.
While scientists don't fully understand its cause, they believe that genetics play a key role in the disease's development. In order to develop psoriasis, a patient must inherit one or more of the genes that could cause psoriasis, and must be exposed to environmental factors that might trigger its onset. These "triggers" include stress, injury to your skin, certain medications and infections like strep throat. Some believe that diet, the weather and allergies can also cause flare-ups.
PsO ready for treatment?
Treatments for psoriasis range from topical creams and ointments — which might include corticosteroids, synthetic forms of vitamin D, retinoids and salicylic acids — to light therapy using natural sunlight or artificial ultraviolet light, and oral or injected medication, depending on the severity of the disease.
Lashgari says that the light and laser treatments truly make a difference in her patients' lives.
"We use high-intensity lasers and light therapy to slow the growth of skin cells, reduce inflammation, ease symptoms and improve the appearance of the skin," she says.
However, Lashgari warns that what works for one case of psoriasis might not work on another, and treatments that once worked to relieve symptoms may become ineffective over time.
"It's important that sufferers stay as healthy as possible — exercise, eat a balanced diet and don't smoke," says Lashgari. "The less stress on the body, the better chance it has to heal or prevent psoriasis flare-ups."
If you think you may be suffering from psoriasis or if current treatments for your disease are ineffective or cause uncomfortable side effects, talk with your doctor about your options.
You don't have to suffer in silence. Join Lauper in saying you, too, are "PsO ready" to deal with your psoriasis.

Drug abuse is a problem that affects individuals from all walks of life and from all socioeconomic statuses. Regardless of the reason someone begins to take drugs, dependency and tolerance can begin to develop rather quickly, before the person even realizes that the pattern of addiction has taken hold of them. When a person's tolerance to the substance turns into full-blown addiction, it is often very difficult to stop the drug abuse pattern.
Releasing yourself from addiction's hold usually requires the help of a third party. At Addiction Rehab Ottawa, we understand that drug abuse takes hold of your body and mind, eventually leading to death if treatment is not sought. If you realize that you, or someone you care about, is suffering from a drug addiction, it is important to seek treatment right away. We are here to help with the recovery process.
The majority of times, drug abuse will create a number of symptoms and sings. These typically include both behavioral and physical symptoms.
Physical Symptoms of Drug Abuse
In most cases, drug abuse is something that affects a body's inner workings. As your body's tolerance increases, more and more of the drug is required, which can often lead to overdose situations. In addition to using more and more of the drug, there are some changes in a person's appearance that may also be seen, which include:
- Sudden changes in weight
- Glazed or bloodshot eyes
- Constricted or dilated pupils
- Infections, bruises, or other places where the drug was obviously put into the body
Behavioral Symptoms of Drug Abuse
Physical symptoms are not the only indication that you, or someone you love, may suffer a drug abuse problem. There are also behavioral issues that may arise, which include the following:
- The involvement in criminal activities
- Financial issues
- Changes in priorities or habits
- Changes in your social network
- Depression
- Lethargy
- Changes in personality or attitude
- Increased irritability or aggression
Knowing the signs of drug abuse can help a person seek treatment before the issue gets out of hand. We can help. Call us today to learn about our drug rehabilitation treatment programs from Addiction Rehab Ottawa.
