Humidity can be a big problem at home if it goes beyond a certain level. And although different people will react differently to high humidity levels, some of the most common issues are allergies, headaches, and breathing problems. Although all these just causes discomfort, exposure to high levels of humidity for extended periods can result in serious medical problems.
But, humidity is also easy to deal with and all you need is a dehumidifier. A dehumidifier will move air over some refrigerated coils using a fan to pull moisture from the air. And although some can have a different mechanism of work almost all will follow this basic principle.
Getting the right dehumidifier for your home can sometimes be a hectic task as all are not the same. And besides, the obvious brand differences, they will differ in other factors such as the capacity, energy-efficient and controls.

The Best Portable Dehumidifier Buying Guide
A dehumidifier provides the best way if dealing with the excessive amount of humidity in the house. And although our reviews if 10 of the best dehumidifiers in the market above will be very helpful the many options in the market can still make things a little confusing. But, you should have a less laborious task picking a dehumidifier for your home if you consider the following three points when shopping.
The capacity is one of the crucial points to consider when shopping for a portable dehumidifier. And the right capacity for you will depend on the size of the house or room where you intend to use it. The capacity will refer to the amount of moisture that the unit can remove in 24 hours and you can get dehumidifiers in as little as 10-pint capacities which are great for small rooms that are not very damp to large 90-pint models that will be ideal for large houses or serious dampness.
A timer might not be a standard feature in all dehumidifiers as it is not necessary for their functioning but it is still a great feature. Timers make it possible to set the machine to run for specific periods of the day which is very convenient as you will not have to worry about remembering to switch it on or off.
Even if you get the best dehumidifier or one with all the good features it will only serve you well if it has some easy to use controls. And here the best ones are those that will come with a digital control panel that makes it easy to adjust the settings, and an easy to locate on/off button.
You do not have to live with the many challenges that come with high humidity levels in the house such as the development of mold, and health complications such as breathing difficulties and allergic reaction. With a good dehumidifier, you can keep the humidity level at a safe and comfortable level for your family regardless of the season. And with insightful information in this piece, picking one should be an easy task for you.

Park City, UT – Ski boot retailer and custom orthotic designer Surefoot, L.C. today announced the company's acquisition of FrontRunners and Super Runners Shops. Surefoot, known for its customization of ski boots, is now poised to do the same in running shoes.
Brothers Bob and Russell Shay founded Surefoot in 1982 and opened their first shop in Park City, Utah. Today, Surefoot maintains stores throughout North America and Europe as the largest dollar-volume ski boot retailer and the largest sport-specific orthotic maker in North America. The company's products are used by athletes in a wide variety of sports including skiing, golfing, cycling and running.
"The acquisitions of FrontRunners and Super Runners Shops are a natural progression for Surefoot. We are runners as well as skiers, and this is an extension of the expertise we have in analyzing the biomechanics of athletes' feet from world-class to weekenders," comments Bob Shay. "We could not be more fortunate with the opportunity to acquire both companies and gain the inherent value in combining all three companies."
FrontRunners operates five stores in locations across the Los Angeles metro area under two store brands, FrontRunners and New Balance. Super Runners Shops are New York City's largest specialty running retailer with a selection of high performance running shoes, clothing, and accessories by major brands. The company sells its products across New York's metropolitan area and is the oldest niche running retailer in New York.
Surefoot stores have been in Santa Monica and New York City for more than fifteen years. "I remember running by both of the FrontRunners and Super Runners storefronts during my trips to California and New York," says Shay. "I always thought that they would be a great fit for Surefoot. As a customer of both companies for years, I am excited to bring our technology and customer service to these two great brands."
Shay plans to maintain the FrontRunners and Super Runners names, but each location will now feature Surefoot customization technology inside. Headquarters for Super Runners Shops and FrontRunners will be relocated to Surefoot's main offices in Park City.

I'm becoming convinced that Mr Jim Moon, of the Hypnobobs podcast, is wholly made of pure running awesome.
His wonderful narration and his podcast sound design (with it's elegant clockwork logic), he delivers great fiction with incredibly well researched audio essays – and does all this on a regular basis.
He's like a marvelous homemade fruit jelly that you just want to spread all over everything – okay maybe that sounds a little strange but his podcast is truly that wonderful. I just love it to bits.
Take last week's podcast. From his great "Library of Dreams" Mr Jim Moon performed Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Horror Of The Heights. I'd never heard of it, it's terrific, and Jim Moon's reading of it is perfect.

This post takes a look at the Hydro-Splitter Kit offered by Heath Scientific. The Hydro-Splitter Kit is a science fair project for kids that educates them about electricity and the electrolysis of water.
Other projects similar to the Hydro-Splitter are also available from the Heath Scientific website. The website offers science supplies as well as other science projects cover a wide range of topics from carbon to light and optics kits. These kits offer a cost effective way for parents to enrich their children's minds while having fun at the same time.
General Information
Water is made up of twice as many hydrogen molecules as oxygen molecules; this is why the chemical formula is H2O. Electricity breaks this formula down when introduced into water. The molecules split with hydrogen appearing at the cathode and the oxygen will mix with one hydrogen molecule making hydroxide.
Supplies Needed
– 1 Beaker
– 2 Carbon Rod Electrodes
– 1 Acid/Base Indicator
– 3 Alligator Clip Wires
– Salt
– 2 Droppers
– 9 Volt Battery- not included in the Hydro-Splitter Kit
Experiment Procedure
The carbon rod electrodes are connected to the battery with the alligator clip wires. Fill the beaker with 200 milliliters of water along with 25 drops of acid/base indicator and a pinch of salt. Adding a second 9 Volt battery can increase the speed of the reaction.
There will be more hydrogen molecules than oxygen in the water and the electrode that the hydrogen is drawn to will have more bubbles. The water around this electrode will be blue; the water around the other electrode where the oxygen is drawn will be pink. This kit allows for a cost effective way to explain the concepts of electricity and voltage.
Founded by Pat and Heath Nichols, Heath Scientific is a provider of educational supplies located in Cedar Hill, Texas. Major suppliers of Heath Scientific include AntWorks, Thames & Kosmos, Uncle Milton, and Can You Imagine. If you are interested in hosting a school fundraiser, or obtaining science related educational tools, contact Heath Nichols at Heath Scientific by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone at (972) 291-4223.

Consultation submissions: The Scheduling Policy Framework and Advertising of Pharmacist-only medicines (Schedule 3 substances)
Between 31 March and 28 April 2017, the TGA sought comments from interested parties on the review of the Consultation: Scheduling Policy Framework and reforms to advertising of Pharmacist-only medicines (Schedule 3 substances).

TGA response
Generally, responses were supportive of the proposed reforms, in particular measures that would increase the efficiency and transparency of the scheduling process.
Based on the feedback to this consultation, and with AHMAC and Ministerial endorsement, we plan to proceed with the following reforms to the SPF:
- Split the SPF into a policy document and a guidance handbook. Chapters 1-3 of the current SPF would form the SPF policy document, with the remainder of the SPF being modified to form a guidance document. The guidance document will also better explain the legislative nature of the Poisons Standard and jurisdictional requirements, incorporate assessment of benefit in conjunction with risk in applications, and improve the usability of the application template.
- Establish a stakeholder working group to provide advice on ongoing reforms to the Poisons Standard and the SPF.
- Consider changes to the framework that allow full public consultation on the interim decision and extend the two week consultation period on a case by case basis to four weeks.
- Create a new Appendix in the Poisons Standard (SUSMP) to enable additional controls or requirements for Schedule 3 substances to be specified, in particular for substances that have been down-scheduled from Schedule 4 (prescription only).
We will not be pursuing the proposals to establish a delegate in the APVMA or to introduce market incentives to encourage down-scheduling applications.
There was also strong support overall for reforming the current arrangements for advertising of Schedule 3 (Pharmacist only) medicines. This work will be progressed as part of the broader advertising reforms.

What are some things you usually talk about when you first start dating someone?
I run out of things to say because my memory is poor so I forget my life experiences for some reason. I am not as up on current events as I used to be, so I can't talk about that too much. What I do is kid around on my dates and eventually I run out of things to kid around about. What do you usually talk about when you first start dating someone? I'm ready to go out on the 6th date with someone I really like & I'm really worried I'll run out of things to say. Thx!

answer my question?

Silence builds fences for wisdom.
Don't be afraid of having nothing to say, sometimes silence can say a lot! Allow things to unfold as they will. Constantly trying to come up with something to "break the silence" can take you out of the moment- you begin thinking more and more and not really putting your attention on your date!
Allow yourself to experience the moment without the anxiety of constantly having to verbally communicate. You can tell oceans about a person by the way they handle moments without verbal communication (remember, communication is always happening, no matter if you're moving your mouth or not!)

Ask them about themselves, their childhood, their funny stories, their memories. I never get tired of hearing about my husband's funny & crazy childhood stories, such as when he saw a UFO outside his window, lol, or when he saved his sister from an earthquake..
Ask him about his passions and hobbies, his goals and dreams.

It might be a little late, but you might find this article handy! Lots of good dating conversation tips that will give you an idea of what to talk about!

The place of the bridge was later prepared for military crossings of the river, so-called "NATO ramps". Christoph Edit: Pictures 31 and 32 are showing the same Bridge from the west bank of the Rhine.

"I don't want my children to go through this pain ever again": Ahlam's Story
Ahlam Munir lives in Kebridehar Kebele 14 with her six children and her Husband who works as a daily laborer. Because of the recurrent droughts in the Somali region, they have been forced to frequently move from one area to another in the past few years. Ahlam's family has been benefiting from Save the Children's ECHO project beginning from the time her daughter, Seida, was diagnosed with health complications that arose from malnutrition.
"When we came to the Stabilization Center she has already suffered from diarrhea and lost a lot of weight. She was very weak. After I brought her to the stabilization center in Kebridehar Hospital, they evaluated and admitted her because she required more specialized care. I have six children and Seida is my fourth. I was very worried that she won't survive. But once she was admitted to the hospital, immediately, they gave her milk and medications. I did not have to pay for anything. In fact they even gave me money to cover my own expenses", says Ahlam.
Dr. Moustefa Abdulahi is a General Practitioner in Kebridehar hospital and remembers when Ahlam was admitted. He says, "The most popular complications that arises from malnutrition are Pneumonia, Diarrhea and Skin Eruptions and Seida was already in the red line of Severe Acute Malnutrition. When she was admitted she was 48 months old and she weighed 7.3 kgs, where the normal weight for that age group is 13 Kgs. I am very grateful for the work Save the Children is working in this area on Nutrition and Health".
Ahlam adds, "After my child was feeling much better and ready to be discharged from the hospital, they gave me a training on how to prepare nutritious meals for my family. Even though resources are very scarce. Now, I know how to prepare a balanced diet with whatever is available and I also understood that I could prevent this from happening to my younger children by breastfeeding them for as long as I can. I don't want them to go through this pain ever again. I also went back to my community and started telling my neighbors how to feed their children and informing them where to go if their children are sick".
With Motherly affection and heavy emotions on her face, Ahlam speaks "My Seida is studying the Quran and Inshallah, I wish for her to become a doctor when she grows up. Because I saw how the doctors worked so hard to save my child."
Save the Children with funding from ECHO implements an integrated WASH, Health and Nutrition drought response intervention in six priority woredas in Somali region, Ethiopia to support the most vulnerable children women, and men in Internally Displaced Persons' camps and host communities to meet their basic water, sanitation, nutrition and health needs.

Thailand: Mass-market eco-car stimulus on the way
The Industry Ministry will roll out an incentive programme to encourage six eco-car manufacturers to make electrified eco-cars after finding that the electric vehicle scheme was ineffective at boosting mass-market production of EVs.
"The ministry is working on a new programme called Eco EV, which is aimed at offering incentives for eco-car makers," said Nattapol Rangsitpol, director-general of the Office of Industrial Economics (OIE). "We initiated Eco EV in September, while the cabinet meeting has acknowledged the ministry's policy and the OIE expects to finalise the incentive framework by the end of this year."
The EV scheme also allows any applicant for hybrid EVs, plug-in hybrid EVs and battery EVs to combine production volume with the government's eco-car scheme, which requires a massive volume of 100,000 cars a year.
But Mr Nattapol said the current programme does not specify EV types, so car makers can produce niche models that require small production volumes and invest only in assembly lines for finished cars.
"When EVs remain a niche segment with small volume, there is no investment in core technology from EV-related products as the government expected," he said.
In addition, the EV scheme offers new excise tax incentives for hybrid EVs and plug-in hybrid EVs that qualify for Board of Investment (BoI) privileges, with the levy decreasing from 25% to 5% based on CO2 emissions.
The battery EVs will be taxed at 2%, a sharp drop from 10%.
But this tax privilege is solely intended to promote local EV production and will expire in late 2025.
Mr Nattapol said there are gaps for CO2 emission of 100g/km between eco-cars and EVs; for example, the eco-cars are subject to 12-14% rates while hybrid and plug-in hybrid EVs enjoy 5%.
The eco-cars, releasing CO2 at 120g/km, are taxed at 17%.
"We are figuring out the excise tax terms in a bid for fairness among all eco-friendly cars in the country, so the Eco EV can be the tax incentive framework for the buyer side, " Mr Nattapol said. "The OIE expects retail prices of hybrid versions to stay between 500,000 and 600,000 baht and the plug-in hybrid and battery EVs to cost 700,000 baht."
The government's eco-car scheme was issued in two phases, in 2007 and in 2013. There are six Japanese manufacturers signed up: Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Toyota and Mazda.
The eco-car project is set to be the second product champion for the country after Thai-made pickup trucks, which have led the country to be ranked in the world's top five light-commercial-vehicle makers by production volume.
According to the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), eco-car output from the six manufacturers stood at 245,567 units from January-August. Of the total production, 133,768 eco-cars went to the domestic market while 111,799 were shipped worldwide.
The FTI also reported that the country made a total of 2,315,000 eco-cars from March 2010 to August 2018.
The OIE said sales of eco-cars accounted for 54% of the passenger car market in the first eight months of this year, up from 44% in 2017.
"The government aims to protect the eco-car scheme that attracted massive investment from six manufacturers, as well as the EV scheme, which should get new investment flows from not only car assemblers but also parts makers," Mr Nattapol said. "We just want all automotive schemes to result in the highest possible benefit."

6 Packing Hacks When Moving
Moving experts recently shared with realtor.com® some of their most creative tips and tricks for helping home owners pack up their belongings.
Glasses and cups: Insert a stemware into a tube sock to prevent cracks. Also, "pick up wine or beer boxes with cardboard separators to pack glasses and other fragile items -- liquor stores give these away for free," says Mim King, a professional organizer in Minneapolis.
Jewelry: Prevent necklaces and bracelets from getting tangled up by taking a few empty toilet paper rolls or drinking straws. Thread each chain through a toilet roll or straw. Then fasten the clasp.
Plates: Use bubble wrap or insert paper plates in between ceramic ones and then stand them up in a box, suggests Randy Shacka, president of Two Men and a Truck in Lansing, Mich.
Clothing: Slide a trash bag over hanging clothes to make them easier to carry or stack, suggests Wes Taft, co-founder of the mobile app moveCHECK.
Linens: Use towels, sheets, and dishcloths to cushion other objects. For example, roll up wooden and plastic utensils in dish towels, Shacka suggests. "Pack pillows at the top of boxes to add extra cushion and wrap artwork in blankets," King says.
Electronics: Use the plastic tabs from loaves of bread to secure electronic cords to prevent tangles. "Be sure to label them so you don't lose track of which cord goes to which piece of equipment," says Taft. He also recommends snapping a photo of your electronics before unplugging them so you remember how everything connects in your new home.
Weird Packing Tricks That Actually Work
Packing to move can be drudge work, but it's an even worse task if your labor results in broken glassware, tangled jewelry, busted gadgets, and lost electrical cords. Leaving your home for a new one is stressful enough without these added woes.
To the rescue, here are some brilliant hacks that'll get your stuff loaded up with nary a crack—and almost no sweat—from experts who live and breathe packing.
Don't just grab your dinnerware from the shelf and stack it in a box—it's more apt to break. As counterintuitive as it sounds, it's better to pack them sideways instead. Just make sure the box is small enough so that the plates fit with only a bit of wiggle room on each side where you can insert bubble wrap or other cushioning
Bronx-based Katie McCann, a home and office organization coach with Maeve's Method, expands on this approach. "Wrap each plate in packing paper, then wrap each set of 6 to 8 again to reinforce them," she explains.
Randy Shacka, president of Two Men and a Truck in Lansing, MI, will sometimes insert paper plates between ceramic ones before standing them up in boxes.
Glasses and cups
Put your tube socks to good use: Insert your stemware into them (one per sock, of course) to prevent cracks. Mim King, a professional organizer in Minneapolis, recommends turning the handles of coffee mugs and pitchers inward in boxes to save space. "You can also pick up wine or beer boxes with the cardboard separators to pack glasses and other fragile items—liquor stores give these away for free," she notes.
Necklaces and bracelets
Don't let all of those pretty chains get tangled in knots! To prevent bracelets and necklaces from ending up in this sad state, grab a few empty toilet paper rolls or drinking straws. Thread each chain through the roll or straw, and then fasten the clasp. Lay them gently in a box and cover with a layer of clothing to keep them in place.
These tiny objects need their own packing compartment—and your old egg cartons are just the solution. Pop a few pairs into each nesting cup and then top with a few cotton balls. Close the carton and seal it with a bit of packing or masking tape. You could also poke your earrings through a paper towel tube, secure them with backs and then wrap the whole roll with plastic wrap or a soft T-shirt.
Moving a dresser is easier without the drawers in it, but if you're hoisting it full of clothes, take some heavy-duty plastic and wrap it around the entire piece so the drawers don't slide out.
Soft items like towels, sheets, and dishcloths can do double duty when you pack them. Shacka suggests rolling up wooden and plastic utensils and other kitchen items in dish towels, while King uses cloth napkins and T-shirts to wrap or separate fragile items. "Pack pillows at the top of boxes to add extra cushion and wrap artwork in blankets," she adds.
Much like jewelry, cords might get balled up and separated from their devices, so make a special effort to keep these organized.
Taft recommends repurposing those plastic tabs that come with loaves of bread to secure cords. "Be sure to label them so you don't lose track of which cord goes to which piece of equipment," he says. You can also take a photo of your electronics before unplugging them so that you remember which cords fit into which sockets.
Your daily necessities
It seems so obvious—until you're standing, exhausted, amid towers of boxes wishing you had your toothbrush and slippers. Pack this special box and fill it with the essentials you need on the first day and night in your new house, including toilet paper, pajamas, a spare set of clothes—and a bottle of Champagne!

SALEM, Mass. - A four run third inning proved to be enough to lift the visiting Wheaton College baseball team past Salem State, 5-3, Thursday afternoon in a non-conference battle at Central Campus.
The Lyons Tommy Larason collected his second win of the season in the victory, pitching six complete innings, giving up eight hits. First-year Paul McGeehan came in in the ninth, earning his first save of his career.
After two scoreless innings the Lyons broke through in the third. Zach Goodwin-Boyd put Wheaton on the board with a two out, bases loaded triple that brought in Tyler Walsh, Casey Twomey and Jared Sharkey. Sharkey got the rally started with a single, which was followed by an error that put Twomey on and a single by Walsh. Ty Calabro kept the inning going by drawing a walk, which setup Joey Santigate for an RBI single that knocked in Goodwin-Boyd.
The Vikings took a run back in the bottom half of the inning with an RBI single by Joe Kasper.
Walsh collected an RBI of his own in the fourth with a single that brought in Sharkey. Trailing 5-1, the Vikings added another run in the fifth, before tacking on their final run in the seventh.
Sharkey and Goodwin-Boyd both finished the contest 3-for-5 from the plate, while Santigate and Walsh were 2-for-5.
Wheaton returns to the field on Saturday, April 1 for a New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) double-header at home against Springfield College. The two sides will compete at 12 p.m. and 3 p.m. at Sidell Stadium.
For the latest on Wheaton College Athletics, follow the Lyons via social media on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and YouTube.

They did claim they have ppl DMCAing streams of the event, and Twitch did take some of them down for copyright. So, the excuse is still bullshit ,especially since under their own TOS, if you notify them what the copyright material is so they can identify it, they will take it down as they do identify it. Specifically point 3 says "Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Twitch to locate the material. Providing a broadcaster's feed and the time on such feed at which you believe there has been an infringement is the best way to help us locate content quickly."
That means, you don't even need to provide a stream, it just helps them find it faster. So, if they got a DMCA for one stream, it makes no sense how so many, especially with the amount of viewers, got to stay up. If they don't wanna do anything, who really cares, but that excuse is so shit, especially based on their own TOS.

Top Trend-Teen Mom Outline
Focus: Pregnant teens keeping and successfully raising their child (rise in "trend")
- There has been a decline in Canadian teenage pregnancies since
1974 in spite of the fact that teens continue to be sexually active. This suggests that teens are taking effective measures to prevent an unintended pregnancy.
- Rural Northern Region of Ontario has the highest teen pregnancy rate (60.8) (^ is there a reason why??)
- TV shows called Teen Mom and 16 and Pregnant are said to "glamourize" and make teen pregnancy seem "okay."
- Pregnant teens face the decision of abortions, having the baby, or putting it up for adoption
- How do moms without father figures or support in their lives differentiate between those who have the fathers support and a "normal" family environment?
- Gloucester High students in Massachusetts, none older than 16, confessed to making a pact to get pregnant and raise their babies together.
- 17 girls total at Gloucester High School (Massachusetts) were expecting babies in 2008. This was more than four times the number of pregnancies the 1,200-student school had last year. Some adults dismissed the statistic as a blip. Others blamed hit movies like Juno and Knocked Up for glamorizing young unwed mothers.
- Ontario's public health units play a role in reducing the rate of teen pregnancy and promoting healthy pregnancies for those teens who do become pregnant
- Public health units provide a comprehensive range of sexual health education and counseling services that aim to support young mothers to have positive health outcomes for themselves and their babies
- Teen pregnancy has continued to be of significant concern in specific populations including socio-economically disadvantaged teens
- "As an idea, teen pregnancy is more socially accepted," says Andrea O'Reilly, a women's studies professor at York University in Toronto, and director of the Association for Research on Mothering. (why?)
- Often, teenagers don't receive timely prenatal care, and they have a higher risk for pregnancy-related high blood pressure and its complications. Risks for the baby include premature birth and a low birth weight.

Deer Hunting Season Forecasts
NYS Deer Forecast - 2017
DEC News, August 1, 2017
With deer hunting opportunities that span four months, vastly different habitat types, and nearly 4 million acres of public land to be explored, New York State offers hunters unique opportunities to pursue white-tailed deer.
Excitingly, deer hunting has been changing in New York, with more hunters opting to voluntarily pass up shots at young, small-antlered bucks. As a result, hunters are now taking more older bucks than ever before. That's good news for New York hunters and their families, because the average 2-year old buck generally yields 25-30% more meat and carries antlers twice as large as the average yearling. Buck harvests are now comprised of roughly 50% yearling (1.5 year old) and 50% older bucks. Hunters can continue to push the harvest ratio solidly toward older bucks simply by choosing to Let Young Bucks Go and Watch Them Grow and cooperating with your neighbors and hunting partners to do the same.
For the 2017-18 deer hunting seasons, we expect the statewide buck harvest to be similar or slightly higher than 2016 and a minor increase in antlerless harvest. Statewide, we increased the allocation of Deer Management Permits (DMPs; antlerless tags) by roughly 11% from the 2016 issuance. This increase in DMP availability reflects a general expectation that deer populations are poised to grow following two mild winters in a row. In many Wildlife Management Units (WMUs), including a broad along I-90 across central and western New York, population growth is undesirable, and we are liberalizing opportunity to harvest antlerless deer. In these areas, we encourage hunters to prioritize doe harvest, sharing extra venison with friends, neighbors and the Venison Donation Program (leaves DEC website). We encourage hunters to take does early in the season and to opt for a doe, or two, instead of a young buck.
In other WMUs, particularly in southern portions of Region 8 and Region 9 and parts of Southeastern New York, in the western Adirondacks, and in the western Catskills, we are continuing with conservative antlerless harvest, even decreasing target harvests in some units to foster population growth toward desired levels. Still, some doe harvest is appropriate in these areas, just not to the same degree as elsewhere.
Help Make Deer Management Successful
First, focus on antlerless harvest where DMPs are available and population reduction is needed. For deer hunting to remain relevant and be valued by the broader public, hunters must demonstrate willingness and ability to reduce deer populations to levels that are socially and ecologically compatible.
Second, report your harvest. It's important for deer management and it's the law. Hunters are the sole source of two critical pieces of harvest information - when and where deer are taken. These data are used, together with reporting rates, to estimate the number of deer harvested in each town, county, and WMU throughout the State. Unfortunately, only about 45% of successful deer hunters report their harvest.
Third, make the most of your hunting by helping DEC track deer and other wildlife populations. If you are a bowhunter, we invite you to participate in the Bowhunter Sighting Log. Keep a diary of your bowhunting activity and number of animals you see for your records and ours.
You can also become an AVID (leaves DEC website) volunteer by collecting information about how deer are impacting the woodlands in which you hunt. These data will help our biologists ensure that deer populations are being managed at levels which encourage healthy and sustainable forests.
Help Protect NY Deer from Chronic Wasting Disease
Hunters should take the threat of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) very seriously! CWD is always fatal to deer. If introduced, CWD could spread rapidly and will be practically impossible to eliminate from the wild deer herd once established. Preventing CWD from entering New York is the most effective disease management strategy. Hunters can help protect New York's deer herd from CWD by following these tips:

While the number of road accident fatalities in Morocco have decreased during the first five months of 2017, the total number of road accidents increased by 9.03 percent compared to the same period in 2016.
OxyContin maker government attorneys in settlement talks
COLUMBUS, Ohio — State attorneys general and lawyers representing local governments said Tuesday they are in active settlement talks with Purdue Pharma, the maker of the prescription painkiller OxyContin that is facing billions of dollars in potential liability for its role in the nation's opioid crisis.Purdue has been cast by attorneys and addiction experts as a main villain in the crisis for producing a blockbuster drug while understating its addiction risk. A report by NBC News said the privately held company has offered to settle for $10 billion to $12 billion.In a statement, the Stamford, Connecticut-based company said it's prepared to defend itself but sees little good in years of "wasteful litigation and appeals.""Purdue believes a constructive global resolution is the best path forward, and the company is actively working with the state attorneys general and other plaintiffs to achieve this outcome," the company said.News of the settlement talks involving more than 2,000 lawsuits against the company and other players in the painkiller industry comes about two months before the first federal trial over the toll of opioids is scheduled to start in Cleveland.NBC reported that Purdue presented a plan for it to declare Chapter 11 bankruptcy and then restructure into a for-profit "public benefit trust."Paul Farrell Jr., a lead plaintiffs' lawyer representing local governments, said all sides remain under a gag order: "All we can confirm is that we are in active settlement discussions with Purdue."Attorneys general representing several states also confirmed the accelerated negotiations.Ohio Attorney General David Yost is "actively engaged in conversations with Purdue," said spokeswoman Bethany McCorkle, declining further comment.Kylie Mason, spokeswoman for Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, declined comment on details of any possible settlement but said the state will "continue to aggressively pursue justice — to ensure those companies complicit in the opioid crisis pay for the pain and suffering inflicted on our state."Purdue Pharma is owned by members of the Sackler family, who have given money to cultural institutions around the world, including the Smithsonian Institution, New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art and London's Tate Modern. The New York Times reported late Tuesday the payout would include $3 billion from the Sackler family. In addition, the Sacklers would sell another drug company, Mundipharma, which would add $1.5 billion to the settlement.In March, Purdue and members of the Sackler family reached a $270 million settlement with Oklahoma to avoid a state trial on the toll of opioids there.Lawsuits filed by more than 2,000 state, local and tribal governments have cast Purdue as a chief villain in an overdose crisis that has killed more than 400,000 people in the U.S. since 2000.The lawsuits assert the company aggressively sold OxyContin as a drug with a low chance of triggering addictions despite knowing that wasn't true.Purdue's drugs are just a slice of the opioids prescribed, but critics assign a lot of the blame to the company because it developed both the drug and an aggressive marketing strategy."Our mission here has always been clear — make Purdue Pharma and the other manufacturers and distributors pay for what they did to Pennsylvania and its people, and put the Sackler family out of the opioid business for good," said Jacklin Rhoads, spokeswoman for Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, who has staffers at the Cleveland negotiations.___Associated Press writers Geoff Mulvihill in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and Marc Levy in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, contributed to this report.Andrew Welsh-Huggins, The Associated Press

Australian Defence Fit
Before joining the Army branch of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) you will have to undergo some pre-employment medicals and tests. This is to ensure that you are fit and healthy to join a professional organisation that operates across the globe in some of the most hostile environments on earth. Conflict zone deployment puts huge amounts of stress on the body both physically and mentally, and so it's important to prepare yourself as much as possible before you join up. Mental training is something that develops over time throughout your military training; however, physical preparations can be made for long in advance. This simple guide will give you an overview of your physical fitness test and your medical examination prior to enlisting, as well as a few handy tips to help you to pass first time.
Physical Fitness Test
This part of the pre-employment medicals is designed to test your body's strength and endurance, as well as your psychological determination. The Army demands that each man can perform 15 push-ups, 45 sit-ups and reach a score of 7.5 on the bleep test. For females this drops to 8 push-ups, but remains at 45 sit-ups and 7.5 on the bleep test. Push-ups should be performed correctly without any bend in the hips, with hands placed shoulder width apart and the elbows reaching a 90-degree angle at the bottom and fully extended at the top. Sit-ups should consist of a full range of movement without bouncing the back off the floor.
This shouldn't be too difficult to achieve providing you work hard on your technique and combine both heavy weight strength training and muscular endurance every week. This will train your muscles to work past their initial fatigue point. Also don't forget to strengthen the core, shoulders, shoulder girdle and upper back, as these secondary muscles are essential in providing stabilisation that reduces the load on the primary muscles, the chest and triceps. For the bleep test, just set up two cones 20 metres apart and download a free bleep app, and combine this with sprints and endurance training.
Medical Examination
This is the part of the pre-employment medical that is harder to prepare for because they test your musculoskeletal make-up. However by regularly stretching and improving your posture, you can certainly help when it comes to the squat test and some of the more unusual movements you will need to perform to demonstrate your bodies structural stability. Just be aware that you may be required to strip down to your underwear to perform these actions. This is so the doctor can look at the way your joints move and flex

Get tested for HIV, end stigma and discrimination, youth urged
MANILA, Philippines – As more young Filipinos get infected by HIV/AIDS, Senator Risa Hontiveros challenged the youth to help overturn the epidemic during the "Test Yourself" event at the Rizal Technological University on Monday, December 4.
Hontiveros herself underwent voluntary testing to show the public the importance of being informed about the disease, and to care more about one's health status.
"It is an opportunity to defend ourselves by getting ourselves educated," she said.
Hontiveros also urged Filipino youth to stop the stigma and instead show support for people living with HIV (PLHIV).
"Whatever the reason behind a person getting HIV, what is undeniable is that this is a person who needs help, and while there is time, this is a person who deserves just as much of a chance to live a dignified life," she said. (READ: #2030NOW: Best cure for HIV/AIDS stigma? Love and acceptance)
Hontiveros also expressed her gratitude to her co-senators for showing their support in this campaign.
"Natutuwa ako kasi sa naunang HIV screening na ginawa namin sa Senado, marami po sa mga kapwa senador ko, kung hindi man sila personally nagpascreening din ay inencourage ang marami sa mga staffer nila, at yung iba naming kasamang senate employees ay lumahok sa screening bilang sama-sama naming pagdemonstrate," the senator said in an interview with Rappler.
(I am happy that during our first HIV screening in the Senate, my fellow senators encouraged their staff, if not themselves, to get tested. Even other Senate employees had themselves tested.)
PDEA incident a 'lesson'
Last week, netizens slammed the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) and a media outlet after they disclosed the HIV status of one of the suspects during a drug bust operation in Fort Bonifacio. (READ: StayNegatHIVe: We need to talk about HIV/AIDS)
Hontiveros said she appreciated PDEA's apology and hoped that the incident taught everyone a lesson. (READ: PDEA says sorry for disclosing HIV status of drug suspect)
"The right to confidentiality of every individual must be respected, hindi lang dahil nasa batas siya (not just because it's the law), but also because revealing very personal information to the public can carry serious unintended consequences that we can't forsee or address," she said.
Secretary Francisco Duque III earlier said that the Philippine has the "fastest growing" HIV epidemic in the Asia Pacific, with a total of 46,985 HIV positive cases from January 1984 to August 2017.
Around 85% of the PLHIV are Filipino males who have sex with males, with ages raging from 15-24 years old. - Rappler.com
*Editor's note: In a previous version of this story, we referred to PLHIV as victims. We apologize for this error. The correction has been made.

Happy New Year & Happy Blogiversary to us! I can't believe it's been 5 years since I began this blog. SO much has changed but I thank you all for sticking with me through every step of this journey we call life. I promise you…and myself…a more positive & productive year ahead.
New Years has always represented a chance at a fresh start. I gave up on resolutions long ago, as they never stick. This year I have one primary goal – and that is to put my life back together, one jagged broken piece at a time. As you know, I relaunched my blog a couple of months ago to reflect my current life. Everything has changed so drastically in my life, it just didn't seem right to continue blogging as if it were the same. Writing has been a good form of therapy for me and I know it has helped others who have had similar experiences. I'm still a personal trainer/nutritionist but everything has been very different since losing my baby – and my business reflected that. My focus is to stop being so stuck in sadness and use all of the bad as a way to rebuild my life. For every negative, I'm going to try my damndest to spin it in a positive way.
I spent 2018 reeling from losing a baby, getting my heart completely broken, & suffering from health issues which required countless tests and two surgeries. My mental health also took a serious downward spiral. I had more bad days than good, in which I didn't want to even get out of bed. I spent a lot of time crying in my car and in the shower. Even when good things happened, I couldn't enjoy them. This year, I am vowing to take control back of my life and of my happiness. I may not have the life that I want or the life that I would've had if my baby were in my arms, but I can try to make the most of the life I do have. I can't spend every day miserable and expect things to get better. So that's my goal. I know it's not going to magically get better over night. There will likely still be bad days, and more crying episodes, but over time I'm hopeful it will get better. Before all of this happened, I was in the best shape of my life…physically AND mentally. That led to a happiness I had never felt and can't begin to even describe. While I may not have that same happiness, who's to say I can't find a different happy?
I've already begun taking steps to improve life a little. After months of debating, I've made the very difficult decision to leave what's become a toxic environment. I'm also trying to focus more on taking care of myself, which includes a commitment to exercise for 30 minutes per day, everyday. Coincidentally, my old workout gurus of Tone It Up are running their Love Your Body challenge, beginning January 14. It's quite literally the most perfect timing, as I want to get back on track AND love my body once again.
My body (and mind) has really taken a beating. After I lost the baby, I just lost all motivation – like if my body was in such good shape and that happened…what was the point? It's taken me a long time but I'm finally ready to get back on track. I just want to get healthy again. As I've said in other blogs, I don't care about how shredded I am anymore but I do want to fit better in my clothes and be healthy, for when (and if) an opportunity to try for another baby presents itself. I have no idea what I weigh – and I don't really care. I want to build my core strength & shoulder strength back up, so I can stop feeling so much pain, as well as work on my endurance. I'm not trying to run any races but I'd like to be in better shape. I'd also like to do yoga every night, as a way to not only stretch & strengthen muscles but to relax. Those are my small goals for now. I think with the help of my Tone It Up girls for extra motivation, it will go well. At least….that's my hope! I intend on building on the workouts more once I can overcome my consistency issues. So far, so good – I've done some form of exercise (at-home workouts, core rehab, outdoor walk, and yoga) every night this week!
I know this is going to be an uphill battle but it's time to start climbing instead of staring at the mountain in front of me. I've struggled with things before but this has been by far the worst thing I've ever had to go through. I've said many times over the years that the key is to get your mind right & everything else will follow. When your mind isn't right, you won't be consistent and everything sort of falls apart. This year has been proof of just that – and it's time to start taking my own advice. I'm just going to do my best & take it one day at a time – and hopefully, over time, things will fall into place again.
Thanks again for sticking with me – here's to another year of staying strong & staying in the fight!

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) - "Many of my old and valued colleagues told me two years ago when I left that I would be back at some point in the future," said Robert Keller. "They turned out to be correct."
Keller, who left a career as an Internet investment banker at H&Q back in 2000 to become a venture capitalist, has come full circle.
Well, sort of. A lot has changed in two years. There is a dearth of investment-banking jobs and the technology boutique he left is now buried within JPMorgan Chase
Keller is now handling portfolios and advising on critical long-term financial decisions, such as tax strategies and estate planning, for wealthy individuals at JPMorgan Private Bank.
The unhurried process of cultivating long-term relationships with individuals seems fitting for the self-effacing and mild-mannered dealmaker, whose calm temperament and genuine care for people would make anyone in his company feel they're in good hands, much like a doctor makes a patient feel.
In fact, Keller says he should have been a doctor. "I started to think about what I was good at," he said to me, over coffee recently. "Was I put on this earth to be an investor or doing something else?"
Private banking seemed suitable. Venture investing was ostensibly not.
"Venture capital looked easier in a robust market," he conceded. "It is a lot harder."
Grass isn't greener
It takes years of experience in building companies and having the facility to know what to do in all situations. It's even harder when business conditions changed as quickly as they did. "We were hit with this quickly changed market. We didn't have the requisite experience to handle the portfolio companies," said Keller.
Indeed, venture capitalists need operational experience, vision and commitment to shepherd companies through the growing pains in the early stages.
It may come as no surprise then that Keller - whose banking experience was less nurturing-oriented and more event-driven through deals between buyers and sellers -- has left.
His specialty in selling companies to the public market was not called for in the venture world. Other Wall Street types learned this as well. Liz Buyer, a former Internet analyst at CSFB turned venture capitalist, recently left her VC post.
In fact, over the past year, many have learned that marketing the Internet to the public is far different than running the operations of a company during a downturn. Just this Thursday, Bob Pittman - hailed early on to lead the convergence of the Internet and mainstream media -- resigned from his chief operating officer role at AOL Time Warner
New school meets old school
Rosewood Capital, a 17-year-old venture capital firm, was supposed to transform its consumer expertise by focusing on the Internet and consumer markets. Rosewood Capital was an early investor in such consumer brands as Noah's Bagels and Jamba Juice.
Keller was the man, along with Ann Martin, a former banker at Alex Brown, to bring the technology angle to old-school thinking about consumer markets.
He had ample experience packaging Internet companies and selling them to the public, probably more often than he liked. At one point in April 1999, he had 10 deals he was handling all at once. And the due diligence process, I asked. "I was just thinking about surviving," he said.
The roster of consumer-related Internet companies he helped bring public includes Netscape (now part of AOL Time Warner
But by April 2001, NBC opted to spend $85 million just to shut down its Internet operations. The Nasdaq had slumped to 2,000. The warning sirens were sounding off, even though the money that VCs were pouring into the entrepreneurial coffers kept flowing. Nearly $12 billion was invested into entrepreneurial ventures by venture capitalists in the first quarter of 2001.
At the time, Keller and the team explored the next growth opportunities, such as wireless ventures. As in all sectors across technology, the market was sufficiently crowded. "We found out that over $5 billion in capital had been invested in 550 companies," said Keller. "How in the world were we going to pick the top 5 in this investment buildup?"
Despite the challenging 24 months, Keller managed to put some money to work. After all, Keller helped Rosewood raise $225 million in the summer of 2000. Some of those ventures include MetaTV, which provides software to cable companies as well as Synchronoss, which makes software for telecommunications companies.
It will take time, however, for any of those businesses to come to fruition.
A lot of luck
Fiction writers couldn't have written a better denouement of the great bubble.
Who would have thought the near 20-year bull market would culminate in 2000? Who would have thought that two years later America would be mired in a deconstruction of events leading up to Nasdaq 5000, and in the process devalue everything that created it, from analyst research to risk-taking creativity.
Is it any surprise, then, that people, like Keller, are exiting the profession that can't exist in its most recent form without investors taking incredible risks to analysts' ability to sell the finished product to the public market.
When he was a banker, Keller used to romanticize about being on the other side of the table. Then he realized that what they had going for them was a lot of luck and timing.
Maybe the time is right for his latest pursuit. At the very least, he's back to something familiar. He's gone back home.

Nintendo Switch secret golf game wiped
A hidden golf video game found on the Nintendo Switch console has been removed in the latest software update, according to fans of the device. In September, gamers found the game buried in the Switch operating system code, but it could only be activated following specific steps. Nintendo has never commented on its existence in the Switch. The golf game was first released on the NES console in 1984 and was programmed by Mr Iwata. Hackers on the console customisation site Switch Brew said the code had been overwritten in software version 4.0.0.

The Preparation of God's Shepherds

"I know your insolence!" I know your cowardice and hypocrisy. David says let me at them. Being a shepherd boy was a boring way to earn a living. He broke up the monotony by composing hymns, old songs. These are what we call in Hebrew "Mizmorim" or Psalms. The only thing that broke up the monotony really was when a lion or a bear or a wolf attacked the flock, and he"d go out and use his stick and his sling.
God prepares people for the extraordinary in the ordinary. When one of those devils grabbed the lamb I learned to rescue him. Can you look after one lamb, one new believer? Can you protect them from the wolves, from the Jehovah's Witnesses and the Benny Hinns in this world, from the Lions? God prepares people for the extraordinary in the ordinary. Never despise the day of small things. He knows what He's doing.
Slow, steady growth is always better than maverick growth. I have seen it again, again and again. What is left of the Airport Vineyard Church in Toronto, Canada? Nothing. What is left of the Brownsville Assemblies of God church in Pensacola, Florida? Nothing. Remember the biggest ministry in the world, the PTL Club, prime time TV, et al? In one day Jim and Tammy Baker " nothing. Slow, steady biblical, Christ-centered growth is always better than maverick growth. Quality is always more important in the long run than quantity. Do not despise the day of small things. Your little church, your little house, grows from week to week, month to month, year to year. You don't seem to be getting anywhere, but God is training people how to shoot. Let us continue.
