why do trees lose their leaves in winter
Unlike herbaceous plants, deciduous trees stand tall all winter, minus some important accessories-leaves. What trigger causes leaves to fall in the autumn? To understand why leaves fall off, it helps to first understand what the job of a leaf actually is. Plants and other photosynthesizing organisms have a very special talent. They can turn sunlight into food. It is a pretty neat trick that only photoautotrophs can do (photo=sun; auto=self; troph=feeder). In order for plants to make food energy, they need water, carbon dioxide (CO2) and sunlight. From this special combination, a plant is able to make its own food, in the form of glucose, a type of sugar. Plants then use the glucose as food energy to live and grow. In order to harvest sunlight energy, plants have a green pigment called chlorophyll. This pigment is what makes a plant s leaves appear green. As winter approaches, the days get shorter and cooler. This change in day length and temperature triggers some trees to go dormant, essentially hibernating for the winter. A tree s woody roots, branches and twigs can endure freezing temperatures, but most leaves are not so tough. It is also very energetically expensive for a tree to run its leafy food factories in the winter, when there is often little sunlight and freezing temperatures make water transport (from the ground into the tree s trunk and leaves) a problem. So it s more energy efficient for a leafy tree to close down operations in the winter and go dormant. A tree is full of vascular cells that transport water and sap throughout, from root to leaf tip. As the amount of sunlight decreases in autumn, the veins that transport sap into and out of a leaf slowly close off.
Then a layer of cells, called the separation or abscission layer, develops at the base of the leaf s stem. When this layer is completely formed, the leaf falls off. This process happens in all deciduous trees (trees that annually shed their foliage), with oak leaves as a notable exception. In oaks, the separation layer doesn t fully allow the oak leaves to detach. That s why most dead oak leaves remain on the tree through winter and even into early spring (much to the perpetual leaf-raking consternation of home owners with oak trees on their property). * Why Don t Evergreens Drop their Leaves? *
Evergreen trees include pines, spruces, cedars and firs. These trees don t lose their leaves, or needles, in winter, because they employ a different survival strategy than do deciduous trees. The needles of evergreens are covered with a heavy wax coating to help prevent moisture loss, and the fluids inside the cells contain substances resistant to freezing, essentially evergreen antifreeze. Evergreen leaves can live for several years, through all four seasons, before they are dropped and replaced by new growth. To learn more about the different growth forms and survival strategies that trees use see the New World Encyclopedia and Backyard Nature. In and, deciduous, including, and perennials, are those that lose all of their for part of the year. This process is called. In some cases leaf loss coincides with winternamely in or. In other parts of the world, including tropical, subtropical, and arid regions, plants lose their leaves during the or other seasons, depending on variations in. The converse of deciduous is, where foliage is shed on a different schedule from deciduous trees, therefore appearing to remain green year round.
Plants that are intermediate may be called ; they lose old foliage as new growth begins. Other plants are semi-evergreen and lose their leaves before the next growing season, retaining some during winter or dry periods. Some trees, including a few species of, have desiccated leaves that remain on the tree through winter; these dry persistent leaves are called leaves and are dropped in the spring as new growth begins. Many deciduous plants during the period when they are leafless, as this increases the effectiveness of. The absence of improves wind transmission of pollen for wind-pollinated plants and increases the visibility of the flowers to in insect-pollinated plants. This strategy is not without risks, as the flowers can be damaged by frost or, in dry season regions, result in water stress on the plant. Nevertheless, there is much less branch and trunk breakage from glaze ice storms when leafless, and plants can reduce water loss due to the reduction in availability of liquid water during cold winter days. Leaf drop or involves complex physiological signals and changes within plants. The process of photosynthesis steadily degrades the supply of chlorophylls in foliage; plants normally replenish chlorophylls during the summer months. When arrives and the days are shorter or when plants are drought-stressed, deciduous trees decrease chlorophyll pigment production, allowing other pigments present in the leaf to become apparent, resulting in non-green colored foliage. The brightest leaf colors are produced when days grow short and nights are cool, but remain above freezing. These other pigments include that are yellow, brown, and orange. pigments produce red and purple colors, though they are not always present in the leaves.
Rather, they are produced in the foliage in late summer, when sugars are trapped in the leaves after the process of abscission begins. Parts of the world that have showy displays of bright autumn colors are limited to locations where days become short and nights are cool. In other parts of the world, the leaves of deciduous trees simply fall off without turning the bright colors produced from the accumulation of anthocyanin pigments. The beginnings of leaf drop starts when an abscission layer is formed between the leaf and the stem. This layer is formed in the spring during active new growth of the leaf; it consists of layers of cells that can separate from each other. The cells are sensitive to a called that is produced by the leaf and other parts of the plant. When auxin coming from the leaf is produced at a rate consistent with that from the body of the plant, the cells of the abscission layer remain connected; in autumn, or when under stress, the auxin flow from the leaf decreases or stops, triggering cellular elongation within the abscission layer. The elongation of these cells break the connection between the different cell layers, allowing the leaf to break away from the plant. It also forms a layer that seals the break, so the plant does not lose sap. A number of deciduous plants remove nitrogen and carbon from the before they are shed and store them in the form of proteins in the vacuoles of cells in the roots and the inner bark. In the spring, these proteins are used as a nitrogen source during the growth of new leaves or flowers.

And although the city touts its service as offering locals more choice, it could end up being the only cable TV game in town if it manages to push out the local incumbent, Falcon, through its bundled services. But Falcon, for its part, says it is ready for the competition. "We're going to be very competitive," Ron Hren, divisional vice president for Falcon in the Northern California, Southern Oregon region, told CNET News.com in an earlier interview.

It doesn't matter how long remains on your prepaid plan. At some unspecified time in the next 60 days (it's a rolling process depending on where you sit in the customer database, and customers with no balance or a low balance will be the first to go), you will find yourself with little more than an emergency device. Friends will be able to reach you, but you'll have no data and just a few calls and a few texts (20 minutes and 20 SMSes, respectively). There will also be a slower-than-usual process for actually shifting providers right now.

Banora Point High School
Kingscliff High School
Murwillumbah High School
Tweed River High School
Wollumbin High School
Dear Student,
Congratulations on your commitment to continuing your studies towards your Higher School Certificate. This commitment is an important one and requires a great deal of thought, preparation and research. Please read this booklet carefully before making your final course selections.
Where a decision has been made to return to school, course choice becomes extremely important. Your choice of courses will significantly determine your options after you leave school.
This handbook contains descriptions of all of the courses that are available for selection by students who enrol in the 2013 PreliminaryCourse (i.e. Year 11) at Banora Point High School, Kingscliff High School, Murwillumbah High School, Tweed River High School or Wollumbin High School. Students and parents/caregivers must read this information carefully as it forms the basis for making choices about subjects and courses for 2013/2014
This handbook has been produced to inform you of the organisation of the Tweed 5 Program and the Higher School Certificate. It gives you information on the courses available and where they could lead you. The detail provided for each course ensures that you understand the commitment required to complete each course successfully.
Study in senior school requires a significant step-up in responsibility.
Successful senior school study requires:
Please note it is recommended that 18 hours be spent on homework and study per week for Preliminary courses and up to 24 hours per week for HSC courses.
Remember, all courses in the senior school require considerable effort and commitment. There are no easy courses. The courses in this handbook have been selected to support the ambitions of a wide variety of students.
A HSC education is not intended to be entirely vocational in orientation.
A broad education is an asset to any person and students should feel encouraged to participate in
courses they find enjoyable and stimulating.
A number of questions need to be considered by students when choosing courses:
Students should think carefully about their course choices. The senior years should be academically challenging and enjoyable. Success will be based on individual performance, not simply on course choices. Students should NOT choose courses based on the assumption that some grant a mark advantage by virtue of the examination scaling process. This assumption is wrong. The scaling process is based on the student's performance and the quality of the candidature state wide. For students who do not achieve well in a course, scaling will not assist them. Individual students need to achieve at a high level to score a high HSC mark. Students should not select courses below or above their ability level in order to try and maximise marks, nor should they choose courses just because their friends do or because they like the teacher.
Discuss with and seek advice from a wide range of people including your parents/caregivers, head teachers, subject teachers, year advisor and career adviser before making your final course selections.
Additionally, students need to be absolutely sure which HSC courses, if any, are required for entry to the careers or further education pathways they are considering. This information is available from the careers adviser.
Students should choose courses based on interest, ability and need for entry to further education or career.
The Tweed 5 Program (T5) is an initiative from the government secondary schools in the Tweed Valley which began in 2012.
The program will see Banora Point High School, Kingscliff High School, Murwillumbah High School, Tweed River High School and Wollumbin High School working as one with our community to ensure positive and productive learning and exciting futures for our young people.
The five Tweed Valley government high schools are again combining their senior school course offerings to provide the broadest possible range of courses, taught by teachers who are highly qualified and committed to supporting and inspiring students to achieve their best in their school studies. The program is also strongly committed to improving the performance of our students at the HSC.
Courses will be offered to students in one of two modes; normal mode or shared mode. The provision of shared mode courses will greatly increase the number of courses available to students in our schools.
Normal mode courseswill be taught in a school by a teacher from that school and delivered to students from that school. This is the same way most classes where taught in Years 7-10. The significant majority of courses in all schools will be offered in this mode.
Shared mode courseswill be taught by a teacher to students from a number of schools. Shared mode courses may be delivered by a variety of methods including video conferencing, using Bridgit and Moodle or having students from a number of schools travelling to a course (much like current TAFE VET course delivery.) The specific arrangements of the delivery of any shared mode class will be discussed with all affected students prior to the student's final selection of that course.
It is important to note that the T5 program may still not be able to provide for students selections in every instance. Student numbers and the quality of delivery will determine which courses will finally run in both normal and shared modes.
For additional information about T5 shared mode delivery, see the T5 co-ordinator in your school.
The course information contained in the rest of this booklet has been supplied by the Board of Studies. The material included in the booklet has been reproduced for the information of students and parents. All details were correct at the time of printing. However, the Higher School Certificate regularly undergoes change. Students and parents should check with Head Teachers or on the Board of Studies website in regard to all aspects of the courses they are considering undertaking next year.
There are a number of methods of gaining a HSC. To gain a HSC a student can:
Students must be committed to maintaining a sound level of achievement in all HSC subjects. Working part-time whilst studying presents some students a time management challenge.
School-based traineeships are explained in more detail later in this handbook.
To be awarded the HSC a student must:
At most, 6 units of courses in Science can contribute to Higher School Certificate eligibility.
The following is a guideline to help explain the pattern of courses.
All courses offered for the Higher School Certificate have a unit value. Most courses are 2 units' courses however; some have a value of 1 unit or 3 units.
Each unit involves class time of approximately 2 hours each week or 60 hours each year. In the HSC each unit has a value of 50 marks. Hence, a 2 unit course has a value of 100 marks.
The majority of courses are offered as 2 unit courses. However, Extension 1 courses are available in a number of courses. Extension 1 courses require students to work beyond the standard of the content of the 2 unit course.
Extension 1 courses carry a value of 1 unit and a mark value of 50.
Extension 1 courses are available at the Preliminary stage in English and mathematics only.
Extension 2 courses are available in English and mathematics as well as Extension 1 courses in history, music, some languages and VET at the HSC stage.
Some Board Developed VET courses have extension courses called "specialisation studies" at a value of 1, 2,3 and 4 units.
Satisfactory completion of the Preliminary Extension 1 course is required before enrolment in any Extension 2 HSC course. Extension 2 courses require students to work beyond the standard of the content of the Extension 1 course. Extension 2 courses must be taken concurrently with the corresponding Extension 1 course. Extension 2 courses have a mark value of 50 marks.
2 units = 4 hours each week / 120 hours each year = 100 marks
There are four different types of courses offered in Years 11 and 12.
Board Developed Courses
These courses are developed by the Board of Studies (BOS). There is a syllabus for each course, which contains:
All students entered for the HSC who are studying these courses follow the same course syllabus.
Board Developed Courses are examined externallyat the end of the HSC course and can count towards the calculation of the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR).
Board Developed courses are categorised as either Category A or Category B for the purposes of calculating the ATAR. For students seeking an ATAR only ONE Category B Board Developed course will count towards the ATAR score.
Board Endorsed Courses
There are two main types of Board Endorsed Courses – Content Endorsed Courses and School Designed Courses.
Note: Some Board Endorsed Courses are one-year courses.
There is no external examination for any Content Endorsed Course or School Designed Course, but all Board Endorsed Courses count towards the Higher School Certificate and appear on your Record of Achievement. Board Endorsed Courses do not count in the calculation of an ATAR.
Vocational Education & Training (VET) Courses
Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses are offered as part of the Higher School Certificate. VET courses are either Board Developed or Board Endorsed courses. They enable students to study courses which are industry specific and have clear links to post-school destinations. These courses allow students to gain both Higher School Certificate qualifications and accreditation with industry and the workplace as part of the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). The national framework is recognised across Australia and helps students to move easily between the various education and training sectors and employment. These courses each have a workplace component specifying a minimum number of hours that students must spend in the workplace or a simulated workplace at school. Students receive special documentation showing the competencies gained. Schools will deliver some of these courses, while TAFE or other providers will deliver others.
All VET courses count towards the Higher School Certificate and appear on your Record of Achievement. However, only Board Developed VET courses count in the calculation of an ATAR. These are generally classes as Category BBoard developed Courses and as so only ONE can count towards the ATAR score. For more information on VET courses refer to the VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING (VET) COURSES section of this booklet.
Some common characteristics apply to these courses:
Some of these courses can be studied in schools while others can be studied at TAFE Institutes or with other training providers. It could be a combination of learning experiences.
The T5 group of schools will be offering students the opportunity to study the following VETIndustry Framework courses in our schools:
Aquaculture is also offered as a VET course. This course is an endorsed course so does not contribute towards an ATAR.
Alternatively, the North Coast Institute of TAFE will offerTVET courses specifically designed to meet local needs. It is important to note that TAFE may not be able to provide student selections in every instance.Refer to the VET Courses TAFE Delivered section of this booklet for a list of available courses.
All VET Frameworks are Category B courses and may contribute up to 2 units towards an ATAR.
Students have the option to sit for a HSC examination in all the courses listed above to have them count towards an ATAR.
The North Coast Institute of TAFE at Kingscliff and Murwillumbah campuses also offer a wide variety of VET Board Endorsed Courses which count towards your HSC. These courses will NOT counttowards an ATAR.Refer to the VET Courses TAFE Delivered section of this booklet for a list of available courses.
Students need to carefully consider their own circumstances before selecting these courses as students are responsible for getting themselves to the venues on time each week. The majority of courses conclude after school hours and students make their own way home. Due to extended class time, attendance is critical to the successful completion of course requirements.
See your careers adviser or the TVET Guide for a full list of VET courses available.
Life Skills Course (as part of a special program of study)
Stage 6 (Years 11 & 12) Life Skills Courses will be available for students following a Special Program of Study for the Higher School Certificate.
Students accessing a Special Program of Study in Stage 6 will, in general, need to have completed at least four Generic Life Skills courses within a Special Program of Study in Stage 5 (Years 9 and 10). Further, participation in a Special Program of Study will be based upon an individual transition-planning process, which will occur for both the Preliminary and HSC years.
Life Skills courses have Board Developed status and can be used in place of other Board Developed Courses to meet requirements for the award of the Higher School Certificate. Each Life Skills course comprises a 2 unit Preliminary course and a 2 unit HSC course.
The Board expects that most students meet the outcomes for a 2 unit Preliminary course and a 2 unit HSC course over a total of 240 indicative hours. That is, 120 indicative hours of study will occur in each level of the course.
There is no external examination for any Life Skillscourses but all Life Skills courses count towards the Higher School Certificate and appear on your Record of Achievement. Life Skills courses do not count in the calculation of an ATAR.
For more information on Life Skills courses see the careers adviser.SCHOOL BASED APPRENTICESHIPS & TRAINEESHIPS (SbATs)
School Based Apprenticeships / Traineeships aim to make Years 11 & 12 work for you by combining employment, qualifications and the HSC. Satisfactory completion of the traineeship provides a minimum of 4 unitstowardsthe HSC. The 4 units total generally comes from 2 units of the appropriate TVET course and 2 units from workplace training and experience. School Based Traineeships suit any student who is keen to get a head start in an apprenticeship in their preferred industry area.At the end of Year 12 students will not only receive their Higher School Certificate but will have valuable experiences and a qualification.
All successfully completed School Based Traineeships in NSW gain a Certificate of Proficiency and nationally recognised qualification. The qualification will be recognised by industry under the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). Completing Certificate II means students will have completed a minimum of 240 hrs of formal training in the work place or simulated work place.
Getting Started
Gaining a School Based Apprenticeship/Traineeship follows the same process as securing a part-time job. Students and their families need to approach their potential employers with their resume. If an employer is interested in employing the young person in a SbAT, the employers contact details should be presented to the careers adviser who will liaise with the DET School Based Apprentice/Traineeship Coordinator and the prospective employer.
School Based Apprenticeship/Traineeships are also available to currently employed school students, who have been employed for less than 12 months on a casual basis.
Students must commit to completing a part-time apprenticeship during Years 11 and 12 then full time after completion of the HSC for the remaining term of the apprenticeship. Students must attend TAFE to complete Stage 1 of their trade course. This counts as part of the HSC. Students must also complete a minimum of 7 hours work each week which may have to be undertaken on a school day. Students must also be prepared to work some days, evenings, weekends and holidays to accumulate the required work placement hours needed for satisfactory completion of the School Based Apprenticeship/Traineeship. At the end of Year 12 students commence full time with their employer for the remaining term of your apprenticeship.
Please note: Students are required to keep up to date with the course work and assessment tasks in all their other courses.
Apprenticeships Available
School Based Apprenticeships/Traineeships are available in a wide range of trade areas including:

7 ways Canadian agriculture will stay healthy into 2018
Farm cash receipts across Canada's major ag sectors continue to show strength, a trend that should last until the middle of 2018. With those strong revenues, Canadian ag profitability should also remain positive through the outlook period.
7 sectors: 7 positive growth trends
That growth, measured at the national level for most sectors, will vary, ranging from the low, an expected 2% in average annual revenues gains in Eastern Canada's grains and oilseeds (corn and soy) to the end of 2018, all the way to a high of 12% growth in the hog sector. We forecast cattle receipts to increase 8% and poultry to increase 7% by July 2018. Dairy, whose revenues we forecast to grow 11% in the next 18 months, may surpass our projection, and easily, with recent news about production growth.
There's also good news for the farm equipment sector that experienced slower sales growth of combines and 4WD tractors between 2014 and 2016. Their sales will grow in 2017 and 2018, not likely to the peak reached in 2013, but higher than their most recent levels.
Western grains and oilseed (wheat, canola and lentils) revenues will likely decline over the outlook period, by a modest 2%. Given that the previous two years' receipts were record-breaking, this still bodes well for the sector.
Farm financials also look to be strong
The general picture of farm financials over the outlook period also looks stable. FCC Ag Economics expects farm debt levels to grow at a rate that will support needed expansion in Canadian agriculture. While interest rates are expected to increase slightly, they'll remain historically low, also supporting farm health.
We expect the loonie to average US$0.78 throughout the second half of 2017. This is one of the reasons Canadian agriculture should continue to outperform the U.S. into 2018, helping to push up receipts here and making Canadian exports more competitive in world markets.
How did we get here?
Revenue growth in a number of ag sectors has registered some record highs in the last five years. 2015 and 2016 were banner years for grains and oilseeds; the livestock sectors had their highest revenues in 2014, and then a bump in 2017.
For more detail about each of the seven sectors' revenue forecasts, see FCC Ag Economics' economic snapshots series. Also, watch for our newest report, Outlook for Farm Assets and Debt 2017-18, to be released September 12.

- With a worldwide selection of cruise and vacation packages, you will get top deals while booking with ease on American Forces Travel℠.
A joint service initiative has developed its first official online vacation travel site, American Forces Travel℠, with Priceline® as the service provider. The site offers travel deals and benefits just for you! American Forces Travel℠ provides access to a wide selection of discounted rates on hotels, air fare, rental cars, vacation packages, cruises and much more!
American Forces Travel is a new Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) program arising from a joint-service initiative combining the efforts of each of the five branches of service (Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and Navy) and the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Military Community & Family Policy.
Because the internet is now the most popular way to research and book travel, the Department of Defense chose to evolve its travel offering. MWR has contracted with a world leader in travel, Priceline®, to deliver high value travel benefits to the U.S. military and DoD community. American Forces Travel℠ will transform the way MWR provides online leisure services to our Service members and families, empowering them to revitalize, reconnect, be well, and most importantly, mission-ready. In addition to dramatically enhancing quality of life for the military community, American Forces Travel℠ will inject critical revenue into MWR programs by providing commissions from every booking made.
A key feature of American Forces Travel is pricing. Priceline® negotiates rates that are typically only available alongside "hidden" features: you can book a hotel room on Priceline® at a discount, for example, if you do so without knowing the name of the hotel up front. American Forces Travel goes a step further. Those negotiated rates are available on American Forces Travel with full visibility to eligible members. It's the best of both worlds.
While there are many for-profit online leisure travel offerings marketed to the military today, American Forces Travel is the only official DoD online program. American Forces Travel proceeds will support MWR programs for the military community.
American Forces Travel provides free access to the site for those who have served their country at americanforcestravel.com.

"Just breathe."
We've all heard it before.
And yet, with our busy, stressed-out everyday lives — and our addiction to technology, our computers and cell phones — it has become so common for us to lose our connection to our breath.
We get lost in our minds, and we forget that we are breathing. We're still breathing during these long lapses of time where we forget, don't get me wrong — otherwise, we would die very quickly — but our breath becomes very tense and shallow, which triggers our sympathetic nervous system. Yuck.
Deep, slow, conscious breathing, on the other hand, activates our parasympathetic nervous system. Muy Bueno.
The five modifications of the mind are correct knowledge, wrong knowledge, imagination, memory, and sleep. For a more detailed description of those, read my article here.
Now I want to talk about the causes of these modifications of the mind.
Basically, we have all this "monkey mind" or "mind chatter" going on. What I want to do now is help you understand why this monkey mind and mind chatter takes places.
Here are the five causes for the five modifications of the mind:
Most people experience thoughts all day long and rarely discover a moment without thoughts.
So naturally, thoughts are one of the biggest distractions during meditation practice.
When we sit down for meditation, we can quickly become overwhelmed as soon as we notice just how many thoughts are whizzing through our minds.
The Buddhists call this "Monkey Mind," which has been taken to mean any one of the following terms: Unsettled, restless, capricious, whimsical, fanciful, inconstant, confused, indecisive, and uncontrollable.
Yet quieting the mind is the great aim of meditation practice.
So the question is this: How do we manage our thoughts such that we quiet our minds?
I want to propose two approaches to managing our thoughts, and you must perform both approaches in tandem, as if each approach occupies a separate end of a scale…
Meditation is a tremendous challenge for most people.
So if you're having trouble reaching 7 minutes in your practice before your brain almost literally EXPLODES, you're not alone.
While each person is at a unique stage in their meditation practice and each person is undergoing a different set of challenges, we can pinpoint at least a few common obstacles that most people experience at one point or another.
I want to outline nine obstacles in particular that can interrupt our practice of meditation and inhibit our progress.
They start as mere distractions and eventually become obstacles, unless you remedy them.
Here they are…
Meditation has been relatively slow to gain adoption into the modern medical mainstream, even though historians believe that it has been practiced since 3,000 BC.
But meditation has a tremendous number of health benefits.
Let's look at a few of those benefits here…
Setting is an important aspect of meditation practice because creating the right atmosphere can help establish consistency in the practice.
When you constantly sit down at the same place everyday, you are helping solidify the daily habit of meditation.
So let's take a look at the components that help establish an ideal setting…
Meditation and mindfulness are practices that have been cultivated by people over thousands of years in many places, among various traditions, so naturally many different names have arisen for the various nuances of each of these fundamental practices.
However, we can distill all the different nuances of each practice into two simple explanations.
Let's take a look…
I want to give you some suggestions that will help you better understand the mantra and how to use it.
A mantra is a sound, word, or phrase, often having no meaning whatsoever. Your mantra might be "Om," "I am," "So hum," "Om namah shivaya," or any number of different mantras that correspond to various teachers or traditions. For a detailed explanation of four useful mantras, visit my article here.
Your mantra is a tool, so let's make sure it's as sharp as possible.
The first important thing to understand is that mantras fall into two general categories, and one of the categories leads to the next. In other words, the two general categories of mantra present two distinct ways of using them. These are the two ways:
Many forms of meditation exist, ranging from the simple and easy, to the complex and difficult.
But while many traditions have their own names for the various styles of meditation, keep in mind that scholars often divide meditation into two broad categories:
Posture is perhaps the first aspect of your meditation practice that demands consideration, as learning to sit properly is one of the most essential skills of meditation.
A good posture is one that provides a balance between being comfortable and alert, and one that you could easily maintain over an extended period of time. The essence of good posture is the ability to sit upright, not too hunched over.
There exist a variety of poses that enable good posture for the meditator. Here are the four most basic poses:
Whenever thoughts and images do arise, there is a corresponding reason. That's why I want to outline the five primary modifications, the five types of "mind chatter" or "monkey mind"…
The way in which someone meditate depends much less on the two different styles —concentration and awareness — and much more on the object upon which someone meditates.
Therefore, I want to outline the six basic objects of meditation.
Keep in mind that when practicing awareness meditation, you expand your attention to include all six objects at once — or as many of them as you possibly can. When practicing concentration meditation, you isolate your attention to include only one of the six basic objects.
Here are the six basic objects of meditation:
Breathing is such an important and fundamental aspect of what it means to be alive.
Yet so many people are unaware of their breathing.
Why should you be aware of your breathing? Because breath is the bridge between the body and the mind, and in order to maintain good health and transition into higher stages of spiritual development you must maintain harmony between your body and mind.

Hi, thanks to allawtterb and bigmac who helped me get my last program working correctly. Now I need some more advice. For another program I want to use the last program and modify it for a digital display timer. I have come up the general form of the program but I am confused of how to approach this. Here is my current code.
#include <hidef.h> /* for EnableInterrupts macro */#include "derivative.h" /* include peripheral declarations */#define MASK_BITS1 0xF00 //Masks bits 11-8 on#define MASK_BITS2 0x0F0 //Masks bits 7-4 on#define MASK_BITS3 0x00F //Masks bits 3-0 on #define DIGIT_PORT PTFD //Port F used for digits//#define DIGIT_MASK 0xF0 //Used to mask bits 7,6 and 5 in Port F//#define SEG_PORT PTBD // Port B used for segments //#define SEG_MASK 0x7F //Used to mask Port B for correct output//#define LED_DISPLAY PTAD_PTAD2#define Mask_Digits 0x03 //used to mask variable digits to 00000011#define SEVEN_SEG_0 0x3F //digits 0 through 9 in display form#define SEVEN_SEG_1 0x06#define SEVEN_SEG_2 0x5B#define SEVEN_SEG_3 0x4F#define SEVEN_SEG_4 0x66#define SEVEN_SEG_5 0x6D#define SEVEN_SEG_6 0x7D#define SEVEN_SEG_7 0x07#define SEVEN_SEG_8 0x7F#define SEVEN_SEG_9 0x6F// Function Prototypes //void delay(long int);void Output_Seven_Segments(byte, byte);void main(void);int FixDigit2(int);EnableInterrupts; /* enable interrupts */ /* include your code here */ void delay(long int n){ long int i; unsigned int j; for (i=0; i<n; i++) for (j=0; j<100; j++) {}} void Output_Seven_Segments (byte segments, byte digit){ //Remember: segments variable is formed as: // DP g f e d c b a digit &= Mask_Digits; //Mask variable digit to '00000011' if (digit==0) //This is the broken display segments=FixDigit2(segments); //Call a subroutine to mangle all bits DIGIT_PORT &= ~DIGIT_MASK; // Set all digits OFF // SEG_PORT = segments & SEG_MASK; //Port B assigned vairable segments DIGIT_PORT |= (0x10 << digit); switch (digit) { case 0: DIGIT_PORT = 0x80;//Drive most significant digit on break; case 1: DIGIT_PORT = 0x40;//Drive second digit on break; case 2: DIGIT_PORT = 0x20;//Drive least significant digit on break; case 3: LED_DISPLAY = 1;//Drive LED display on break; }void main (void){ // Set DDRs for output ports SOPT_COPE = 0;//Disable watchdog timer PTADD = 0x02; // Replace XX with the hex value to set the PA2 and PA1 as outputs PTFDD = 0xE0; // Same here, setting the inputs/outputs for port F PTBDD = 0x7F; // Setting the input/outputs for Port B time=0; for (;;) //Loop forever (as always!) { time++; //increment variable time by one //Convert to Segments and Output bits (11:8) of time delay(1); //Convert to Segments and Output bits (7:4) of time delay(1); //Convert ... bits (3:0) of time delay(1); }} int FixDigit2(int value) { unsigned char newval; newval=0; newval=newval|(value&0x01)<<6; //Bit 0 becomes 6 newval=newval|(value&0x02)>>1; //Bit 1 becomes 0 newval=newval|(value&0x04)<<5; //Bit 2 becomes 7 newval=newval|(value&0x40)>>4; //Bit 6 becomes 2 newval=newval|(value&0x80)>>6; //Bit 7 becomes 1 newval=newval|(value&0x38); //And bits 543 are copied undisturbed return (newval);}
I need to get the variable time which is an unsigned int. I then need to mask bits 11-8 off then convert it into the digital display form and display it on the board.
This will be the same for the other 2 digits but with bits 7-4 and bits 3-0 respectively.
I will need another delay routine for the incrementation of varaible time to get it to count every mili second. What is the best way to do this? Would a case statement be Ideal?
The part I get confused it after I mask the 12 bits into 3 seperate nibbles by ANDING them with the variables.
#define MASK_BITS1 0xF00 //Masks bits 11-8 on
#define MASK_BITS2 0x0F0 //Masks bits 7-4 on
#define MASK_BITS3 0x00F //Masks bits 3-0 on
#define MASK_BITS2 0x0F0 //Masks bits 7-4 on
#define MASK_BITS3 0x00F //Masks bits 3-0 on
bits 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
value 2048 1024 512 256 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
X X X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 after applying MASK_BITS1
0 0 0 0 X X X X 0 0 0 0 after applying MASK_BITS2
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X X X X after applying MASK_BITS3
What I want to do is to have the nibbles placed into a 10 way switch for assigning the digital output for digits 0-9. How do I go about this? Im really confused mainly because I'm a novice when it comes to C but I am getting better all the time. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

During the infamous Sony server hack last year, Spectre made a lot of unwanted headlines when it was revealed via leaked emails that the budget had spiraled out of control and producers had taken issue with a problematic third act. However, recent developments have indicated that production is running much more smoothly now. That good news couldn't have been more timely, as it more or less coincides with the first wave of marketing for the film - including, the release of the Spectre teaser trailer, which you can watch above.
During Craig's run as 007, there has been a concentrated effort to inject the films with continuity, which is a departure from previous incarnations. Fans who appreciate that element should like that the practice is being incorporated in Spectre, as it looks like a dark secret from Bond's youth (revealed via personal effects recovered from his now-destroyed childhood home) is what sets him off on his latest adventure. Along the way, Bond will have an encounter with Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace villain Mr. White (Jesper Christensen), who apparently has ties to SPECTRE and is living in isolation for reasons unknown.
The announcement that Oscar-winner Christoph Waltz signed on to play the film's villain was greeted with much fanfare, so it shouldn't come as any surprise that his character is briefly teased in the trailer. The actor seems to be channeling his Hans Landa from Inglourious Basterds, as even the brief dialogue he has in the preview hints that he'll be a sinister and cunning evildoer. What Waltz means by saying "it's been a long time" to Bond is anyone's guess, but it adds another layer to what is shaping up to be an interesting story.
Spectre isn't quite a direct continuation of the plot featured in Skyfall, but we do know that the intention is for there to be plenty of connective tissue between the two. Screenwriter John Logan has gone on record saying that the themes and ideas of the previous film will be carried over and expanded upon in Spectre, giving the filmmakers an opportunity to have the characters grow. Mendes is also looking forward to completing arcs he felt were left incomplete last time around - having stated that this new film represents the second half of a two-part story in a way.
The synopsis for Spectre provides many clues as to how that will be accomplished, most noticeably the idea that M (Ralph Fiennes) is in a political struggle to keep the British secret service alive (recalling the quarrels about MI6's relevancy in modern society from Skyfall). That subplot is absent from the teaser, with the primary focus being the role Bond's past has in the proceedings as he uncovers the truth behind the SPECTRE organization. Still, this is merely the beginning of promotion for the new film, so we should find out details about M's battle soon enough.
The task of trying to top the most successful Bond film of all-time is a daunting one, but on paper Mendes seems to be working with something that can reach the high benchmark fans will have for Spectre going into its premiere this fall. The core narrative sounds like it will be full of bureaucratic and espionage intrigue, while the high-profile additions to the franchise's cast (Waltz, Léa Seydoux, Dave Bautista, etc.) should make for an entertaining watch - adding to our hope that Spectre can be another special offering in the 007 canon.
Spectre will be in theaters November 6, 2015.

HONG KONG — The Hong Kong government said late Thursday, just before the start of a four-day Easter public holiday, that it had put on hold its plans to block public access to residential address information and the identity card numbers or passport numbers of company directors.
The decision by the Financial Services and Treasury Bureau represents a sharp reversal of what had been portrayed by the government as an attempt to protect privacy.
But the proposed policy drew criticism from bankers, corporate lawyers, accountants and journalists.
They assailed the plan as a retreat from corporate transparency that would damage Hong Kong's position as a financial center and could facilitate money laundering and other criminal activity.
Hong Kong makes it extremely easy to set up companies, so many individuals create them, even simply to own their residences. Extensive data are available only from the Companies Registry, which has long been open to the public, including online, although fees are charged for documents.
Many wealthy mainland Chinese, including from prominent Communist Party families, own companies in Hong Kong and have provided personal information to the Companies Registry. Banks, law firms and accounting firms routinely check the registry and gather data on mainland Chinese citizens to verify identities and detect fraud in initial public offerings and other transactions.
The Financial Services and Treasury Bureau said it would proceed this year with a long-planned rewrite of the city's Companies Ordinance, but the rewrite would not include the contested provision to limit public access.
"Given the complexity of the issues involved and very diverse views of different stakeholders, we believe that the community should be given more time to build consensus on the issue" of public access, the bureau said in a statement sent to the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Hong Kong, which was one of the groups that had protested the proposed curbs on public access.

Bathroom Remodel in Frederick, MD
We have just completed a total bathroom remodel in Frederick, Maryland! Our client was unhappy with the existing layout and functionality of their current space. They met with our design team and worked out the options that were important to them. The result was a new space that was brighter and "flowed". The existing tub/shower combination was removed and we built a walk-in shower with a ceramic tile surround. We also built in niches with shelving and a foot stool!! The new shower was enclosed in a frameless glass door. The cold Frederick winter was kept at bay by installing radiant heat beneath the new tile floor and a heated towel rack. The old single sink vanity was replaced in favor of a dual sink design with integral drawers for increased storage. The vanity was completed by the addition of matching built in medicine cabinets that complimented the new vanity.

This NZ Music Month collection showcases NZ music television, spun from a playlist of classic documentaries and beloved music shows. From Split Enz to the NZSO, Heavenly Pop Hits to Hip Hop New Zealand, whether you count the beat or roll like this, there's something here for all ears (and eyes). Plus music writer Chris Bourke gets Ready to Roll with this pop history primer.
Brian Brake is regarded as New Zealand's most successful international photographer. But before heading overseas to work for photo agency Magnum and snapping iconic shots of Picasso and the Monsoon series for Life magazine, he was also an accomplished composer of moving images. He shot or directed many classic films for the NFU, including NZ's first Oscar-nominated film.
Icon in B Minor: a musical odyssey is the tale of two creative souls from different centuries with the same belief in spiritual transformation through their art. World-renowned New Zealand concert pianist Michael Houstoun is filmed on his pilgrimage to Germany, where composer Franz Liszt spent his last years. Houstoun is preparing for his performance of Liszt's monumental work, Sonata in B Minor. Produced and directed by Tainui Stephens, Icon in B Minor screened as part of the Work of Art series.
This documentary follows Auckland-based, Italian-born pianist Flavio Villani as he prepares to play Sergei Rachmaninoff's demanding Piano Concerto No. 2 in Italy — his debut performance as a soloist with an orchestra. Director Rebecca Tansley, who funded much of the documentary herself, tails Villani from four months before the recital that will challenge the prodigal son to affirm his career choice and sexuality, in front of his Italian ex-military father. When it debuted at the 2015 Auckland Film Festival, Crossing Rachmaninoff won a standing ovation.
"Jazz is an attitude ... how you look at yourself, how you look at the world." So argues the subject of this rich and moody Work of Art documentary: jazz pianist Mike Nock. The Ngaruawahia-raised muso first went on the road in his teens, and by 18 had left New Zealand for a long career in Sydney, London and New York City. Director Geoffrey Cawthorn and his film crew travel with Nock in small-town New Zealand and big city NY, capturing memories of childhood, touring and inspiration. Also included: some beautifully-lit performances by Nock and his cohorts.
In this 1971 film pianist Barry Margan 'humps' his grand piano around NZ, on a mission to bring classical piano to places where it might not typically be heard. Aiming to break down barriers to enjoying live chamber music, Margan plays his pop-up piano (including Douglas Lilburn's 'Sonatina') at coffee bars, libraries and art galleries. The trailer-borne grand is not easy to set up, but the audiences (from soldiers to children) are willing. Narrated by Margan, this was the last film in the National Film Unit's three decade-spanning Pictorial Parade magazine series.
Framed around a visit to New Zealand by Irish-born entertainer Danny La Rue, this all-singing all-dancing spectacular was recorded over three days in March 1980. The "fella in a frock" was famed for his drag acts and double entendres. Comedians Jon Gadsby and David McPhail provide local support as Marlene Dietrich visits a farm, Mae West visits the All Blacks changing room, and Margaret Thatcher meets Robert Muldoon (McPhail). Filmed at Avalon Studios, the revue was a co-production with London Weekend Television, made during the golden era of NZ TV variety shows.
In 1982 renowned Russian pianist Vladimir Ashkenazy toured New Zealand. With the combined support of TVNZ, Radio New Zealand and the NZ Symphony Orchestra, a one-off televised concert was arranged. Ashkenazy plays two pieces backed by the NZSO at the Auckland Town Hall, after an interview by Ian Fraser, in which the pianist praises the NZSO's ability to handle a piece he describes as "almost unplayable in parts". In the second clip, he plays Béla Bartók's Second Concerto, and in the third clip — which appears never to have gone to air — César Franck's Symphonic Variations.
From 1996 to 1998 broadcaster Ian Fraser took time out from hosting current affairs, to MC this popular musical talent quest (Fraser, a trained pianist, also tinkled the ivories himself during the series). There were two finals: one assessed by studio judges, and one from viewers' votes. The performers ranged from covers bands to opera singers, from country and western to soul. Future Opshop members Jason Kerrison and Shay Muddle were judged runners-up in 1996 (as Akustik Fungi). Other contestants included Lisa Tomlins, opera tenor Shaun Dixon and actor Stig Eldred.
This magazine newsreel mixes buried treasure with a classic Brian Brake-shot performance piece. Opener 'The Long Poi' captures a poi dance. In 'The Buried Village' tourists examine fireballs and Māori stone carvings buried in the 1886 Tarawera eruption. The final piece showcases the talents of Kiwi pianist Richard Farrell and director Brian Brake. Brake's moody studio lighting and lively compositions frame this performance of a Chopin waltz. Farrell would die after a car accident in the United Kingdom in 1958 — the same month Brake won his first big spread in Life magazine.

Here are some snapshots that I took while in Tokyo in December. I was there for about a week around Christmas and it was simply magical. I walked upwards of 10,000 steps each day, enjoyed conversations with old ladies on various subway lines, and absorbed as much as I could of the creative and vibrant energy that only such a city can offer. This was an excellent trip to stimulate my creative juices, especially thanks to my brief yet profoundly impactful visit to the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka. I didn't take many pictures, as I was more focused on enjoying each moment and sketching whenever I had the chance. Still, I hope you enjoy these quiet yet heartfelt snapshots of some of the spots that called out to me.

They are moderated by a professional group counselor, group therapist or group psychologist and generally focus on a specific issue or client profile (e.g. men or women etc).

Results were that I quickly shed some excess weight and body fat, reduced abdominal measurement (over the stomach); felt more energetic and more focused. Five month later, I am still feeling the benefits and, more slowly, the weight is still reducing. Monica was a great help, very responsive and flexible to my timetable. A great service, well worth the time and effort.
There are many ways which one can go about losing weight in London. Gyms are a traditional and effective way to shed pounds, and London gyms have developed excellent customer service and superior facilities. Several large chains offer branches in London such as Virgin Active and Fitness First. One of the benefits of being a member of such gyms is the ability to use different centres across the capital and indeed the country. They offer standard gym equipment, along with swimming pools, classes and personal trainers. However, do expect facilities to differ from location to location. Prices start around £40 a month for an off-peak membership. There are of course many exclusive gyms across London but these services come at a premium. For those looking for a gym on a budget, the central YMCA is a great choice. Located close to the West End, the centre boasts a £25 metre pool and several classes including boxing and belly dancing.
"When I started the programme I had spent years trying different types of diet and exercise regimes but deep down I knew I would not be able to succeed long term if I didn't change the way I think about food. Now, I finally feel back in the driving seat when it comes to my attitude towards food. I no longer feel like a prisoner in that respect and feel totally in control which is an achievement I am absolutely delighted with! I have not binged on food for a long time and I now feel I am much more the real me. I am a lot happier and more confident almost all of the time. This is the way I used to feel when I was going through a good patch but there are no patches anymore. For the first time I really feel like I have a fit, healthy future ahead of me!"

Obesity results from interactive influences of biological, physiological, psycho-social, behavioural and environmental factors. With such a multifactorial aetiology, prevention of weight gain, weight loss and weight maintenance is less than straightforward. Whilst the energy equation (calories consumed = calories expended +/- calories stored as body fat or glycogen) holds true, food choice is highly complex. As such, interventions that only address factors at the individual level, and do not take into account the social and environmental influences mentioned above, are unlikely to be successful.

Sustained weight loss for patients who are morbidly obese—usually defined as being 100 pounds or more over ideal body weight or having a body mass index of 40 or higher—is even harder to achieve. And serious health risks have been identified for people who move from diet to diet, subjecting their bodies to a severe and continuing cycle of weight loss and gain known as "yo-yo dieting."
Bariatric surgery is the general term for a variety of weight loss surgical procedures that reduce the size of the stomach, helping patients to lose weight and maintain health through reduced consumption, healthy eating and exercise. The surgery is a tool, not a cure, to help treat weight problems. Our mission is to help patients transform their lives through surgical weight loss when nonsurgical attempts have been unsuccessful.
Sustainable weight loss – You'll not only lose weight, but you'll end the yo-yo dieting cycle so that you keep the weight off permanently. Our long-term approach means that you'll not only lose weight and get fitter and healthier, but you'll also tackle the underlying causes of your past eating patterns and weight gain so they become a thing of the past.

Collapsing Clouds
Collapsing Clouds is the twenty-third level in the Game Boy game, Donkey Kong Land. It is also the seventh level of the Monkey Mountains & Chimpanzee Clouds world.
This level, as its name suggests, is filled with many cloud platforms, and most of them will collapse when the Kongs get on them. The characters must jump off each platform quickly to the following cloud. Expresso the Ostrich can be encountered here to help the Kongs fly over the abyss under the cloud platforms. Although this level is one of the last to be explored, it is relatively short and is not filled with too many enemies. Zingers, Kritters, and Gnawties are of these few enemies.
Level Layout[edit]
From the start of the level, the Kongs must walk to the right and jump off a cloud platform to reach a high up DK Barrel. Then, they should come up to an abyss and cross it by using a couple of collapsing platforms. After that, they will find a crate containing Expresso. They should break it open and begin to ride on their Animal Friend. The heroes have to cross another abyss after this and continue to use the cloud platforms in the air. Once over the gap, the group must defeat a few Kritters and hop along two more platforms to end up near a Gnawty. They should beat the foe and cross another gap with the cloud platforms they see. This gap is followed by another one, and it must be crossed in the same way. When these abysses are passed, the Kongs and Expresso must use some more collapsing clouds to reach other other end of a pit. Here, they can find the Continue Point.
Halfway through the level, the group has to bounce to each collapsing cloud in the air and make it over another abyss. After this, the should defeat a Gnawty and cross yet another gap with cloud platforms. On the other end of this, the heroes must watch out for some dangerous Zingers, who will move at a fast speed up and down. Soon, they will have to cross another really wide abyss. This time, there is only one cloud to cross it with. So, they should drop down into the sky and fall through the fading cloud they are on. They will land on other clouds in which they must continue to fall through. Eventually, the group will land in a barrel and be shot to the right, where they will land right on a solid large platform. As they are shot out of the barrel, however, automatically falls down through the sky, and the Kongs won't be able to get him back. Once on the main path again, the Kongs must get over another wide pit. As they jump to each cloud, they should watch out for the villainous Zingers, and then make it to the other end of the abyss. Right after getting over the gap, though, they will need to get over anther one nearby. When the Kongs hop to each cloud platform this time, there will be, again, some Zingers, who can be quite a hazard. Once the Kongs make it across this pit, they should travel a little farther until they see a portal. When they jump into it, they are taken out of the level.
