After learning Jessica Cox's story, you'll likely find you have no excuse…for anything. Cox is the world's first licensed armless pilot. Yes, armless. She's the first armless black belt in the history of the American Taekwondo Association. She can play the piano, put her own contact lenses in, scuba dive, and text on her cell phone: all with her feet. She also has a completely unrestricted driver's license from the state of Arizona, which inspired the invention of what is called the "Lower Extremity Vehicle Navigation Control System," allowing people to drive cars without using their upper body. In 2014, she completed a lifelong dream by competing in El Tour de Tucson, a bike race in Arizona, using a custom tricycle.
At the age of 14, Cox earned a black belt from the International Taekwondo Federation. In college, she continued to train in Taekwondo, this time with an American Taekwondo Association martial arts club. In turn, the American Taekwondo Association created a brand new training curriculum to accommodate those without the use of their arms. For example, one of those accommodations was the ability to use a knee strike, instead of a punch. As if that weren't enough, she went on to earn her second and third degree black belts, and was named Arizona's 2014 State Champion in "forms." She wasn't competing in a handicapped class, either. That was against the best of the best, including able-bodied competitors.
Initially, Cox began training as a pilot to overcome her fear of flying. That's one way to do it… After struggling for more than a year to find the right aircraft, Cox fell in love with a 1946 415C ERCO Ercoupe. One of the reasons the Ercoupe fit her so well was that the rudders were interconnected with the ailerons, leaving her free to handle the other controls with her feet. After earning her certification in 2011, the Guinness Book of World Records recognized her as the first armless person in the history of the world to obtain a pilot's license.
Cox graduated from the University of Arizona in 2005 with a bachelor's degree in psychology and a minor in communications. During her time in school, she completed written assignments and exams by holding pens and pencils in between her toes, learning to write with her feet.
In addition to her aforementioned accomplishments, Cox was named one of Plane and Pilot Magazine's 10 Best Pilots in 2013, she won the Inspiration Award for Women: Most Aspirational, 2012 USA and Inspiration International, 2013 UK, as well as the AOPA LIVE Pilots Choice Award 2010: Most Watched Female Aviator.
Today, Cox is a motivational speaker, traveling the world to inspire those around her to overcome the challenges they face in their own lives. She has appeared on Fox and Friends, CNN, The Ellen Show, Inside Edition, Beyond Belief, ABS-CBN, Power ng Pinoy, GMA, Hooplaha, AOPA Live, and FAA Focus. She is also the subject of a documentary called Right Footed, directed by Emmy Award winner Nick Spark. In 2015, Cox wrote an autobiography titled Disarm Your Limits: The Flight Formula to Lift You to Success and Propel You to the Next Horizon, available for purchase on Amazon.

text: Hey just got my new Minecon and looking for some good starting numbers on low bite northest/ohio tracks and liberty Kentucky indoor dirt. Weekly track is 1/7 mile flat tight bullring but also getting ready to head to liberty Kentucky indoors which i'm assuming numbers will be close to the same. Clone Medium/Heavy is what i'll be running the kart in. Burris rules standard weekly tires are 33a's. Looking at the numbers on the owners manual the high left is probrably needed to help keep go kart from getting RR tight i'm assuming. Good starting point at 59% or 60% left? Also in the past I've seemed to run better with higher front weight. So what are your thought on that i'm thinking the max 46.5% Front and 59% left and 65% cross. Camber RF -2.25 LF +.75 Caster 10/7 with right front in front position. Sound about right? Most concerned about where to start on left and front. Little concerned about getting RR tight with the tire prep we use nowadays and more flex the 1 1/8 chassis will provide. Excited to give this a try. Also i'm thinking 1 1/2 front stagger and 1 1/2 rear?

In 2013, I was named one of 10 Hollywood Assistants to Watch by Variety magazine, while working in the TV Lit department at ICM Partners, one of the world's top talent agencies.

It was exhilarating to see that almost every single person I helped landed the job. I started by teaching foundational networking skills and I saw that, in particular, the interview prep work I taught was changing people's lives. I knew I was on to something. Pretty soon, I presented my first sold-out "Hired in Hollywood" workshop at UCLA, and Entry-Level Hollywood was born. Since then, I have taught over 1,200 students through career workshops at Yale University, Dartmouth College, UCLA, UCLA Extension, Middlebury College, American University, Occidental College, University of California Irvine, the Youth Business Alliance of LA, JHRTS, Women in Film LA, and many more.

Israel and Russia intend to set up a working group, involving a number of other states, which will facilitate the withdrawal of foreign forces from Syria, a high-ranking source in the Israeli government told Sputnik on Wednesday.
"It was decided to create a group with the participation of Russia, Israel and several other countries, which will work on the issue of the withdrawal of foreign forces from Syria", the official said after the talks. He declined, however, to specify the details of the initiative, including the countries that could be involved in the process in addition to Israel and Russia.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met earlier on Wednesday with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow to discuss security in the Middle East with a focus on Iran.
Netanyahu said Wednesday that high-level contacts between Russia and Israel contribute to security and stability in the Middle East.
"I believe that the direct link between us, our direct contact is important and guarantees lack of problems and clashes and ensures stability and security in our region", Netanyahu said.
Russia-Israel relations were put to test following the fatal crash of the Russian Il-20 plane in September 2018 that the Russian Defense Ministry held the Israeli Air Force responsible for.
The plane was downed by a missile launched by Syria's air defense system targeting Israeli F-16 jets that were carrying out airstrikes in Syrian Latakia province. The incident claimed the lives of 15 Russian servicemen.
However, a high-ranking source in the Israeli government said earlier on Wednesday that Moscow and Tel Aviv have overcome the crisis in bilateral relations that was caused by the incident with a Russian Il-20 reconnaissance aircraft.
The source also stressed that Israel will continue to operate in Syria against the 'Iranian aggression', while maintaining communication channels to avoid further conflicts with Russia.
Israel views Iran as a permanent threat to its national security and tries to undermine positions of the alleged pro-Iranian forces in neighboring Lebanon and Syria.

Toms River PD: 2 arrests made in burglary at chief's housePosted: Updated:
Toms River authorities say they have made two arrests in connection with a burglary at the police chief's home on Tuesday.

Mastronardy says he installed the security cameras just two weeks ago. Police are investigating the possibility that the suspects are responsible for more than five home burglaries that took place in Toms River that same day.

The New York Conference of Italian American State Legislators is currently accepting applications for four $1,500 scholarships to be awarded at the association's annual Legislative Conference Day on June 10.
The scholarships will be awarded to four current or future college students from New York State. Eligibility will be based upon the student's grade point average, interest in pursuing higher education, involvement in the local community as well as individual financial need.
"It's no secret that college tuition is rising and students and their families must take advantage of every opportunity to meet their required expenses with scholarships in addition to student loans, available financial aid, and personal contributions," New York State Senator Kenneth P. LaValle said. "I recommend that students from the First Senatorial District apply to the conference for these prestigious scholarships so that they may hopefully secure as much extra help with their expenses as possible."
The New York Conference of Italian American State Legislators is a bipartisan organization of New York State Assembly and Senate members who are actively involved in promoting and celebrating the state's Italian American community. The conference mission is to work hard to elevate and highlight Italian American contributions to the State of New York and beyond, in all aspects of society, including literature, the arts, architecture and politics. The conference also tries to dispel negative stereotypes of Italian Americans.
Applications must be received no later than May 3 for consideration and scholarship winners must be present at the conference to receive their awards. For more information or to download an application visit Senator LaValle's website at www.senatorlavalle.com.

A Weaver of Words
By: Katherine K. 7C CW
I am but a small fragment of an enormous world, a shard of glass broken apart from the rest. I am not transparent glass, for I cannot look into a mirror and see myself as anything but a stranger. There is no tool that allows one to look into the core of their selves. I've always thought that I have known myself, but when I recently looked into a mirror I realized that what I was seeing was just a vessel; a vessel for something unseen and unknown, elusive and maybe even colorful: my true self. And that is what got me thinking, "can I ever truly wrap my mind around who I am?" It might not be easy to describe oneself, but someday I will be able to know and describe myself like I am describing a friend.
I hope, as I often do, that one day I will become familiar with my true self. I will be able to look into a cracked mirror and realize that I am just as broken as the glass. I am not fragile, no. But people, in their own way, are all broken. There is no way to fix them, for people are much more complex than simple machinery. There are no wires or structures in people that always have a fix. We all have what are called flaws. Some of them are buried deep underground, and others that you wear on your sleeve. But through the crack in the mirror, I will also be able to see the goodness in me, the part that shimmers and beams, like a group of fireflies, through the dark. So in the end, I do not count my flaws. I count what matters, for there are things more important than trying to fix what cannot truly be comprehended in the first place.
What some might call naivety, I think is a strong case of hope. I believe I possess such a thing, although it is usually only seen in fairytales and fables. Hope can shine through the very windows of our soul. Sometimes, I can look at something and feel like my day is brighter, because some things are like mirrors of light, so bright they can cast out all the darkness you can ever felt. I wonder if I am optimistic enough to be like that for others. Most of the times, when I am in a bad situation, I can always find a way to turn on the light. That's one of the qualities I am sure I would not trade for the world.
Sometimes, I can get lost, but the best kind of lost there is. Lost in a garden of words, each flower placed so perfectly, bringing out the beauty of everything near it. I can walk for hours, listening to every single sound, even the tiny sound of grass being split up when my foot touches the ground. I can look at the beautiful sky that is always a perfect shade of violet, right before the sky is going pitch black. Despite that, I find myself seeing perfectly, though some parts of the garden have little light than others. And even when I am somewhere else, like at school, I find myself remembering what it was like, longingly trying to grasp the intangible presence of a great book. It sparks my creativity, and new ideas flood over my mind like a tide. It makes determination shoot through me like a flaming arrow, on fire with fresh resolution, because, one day in the distant future, I want to help others know what it feels like to be given the warm, sensational feeling that you get when you are reading a good book.
Can there ever be a time when, finally, you can look at yourself as if you were looking at a best friend? I believe there is. The picture you see in the mirror will develop over time. It will start out as a blank canvas. It will grow in detail, though ever so slowly. The picture will not look like much at first. But only at the end, when you have become the best person you can be, will it be clear to you what it shows. You may not realize it, but you are the artist behind the picture. It is up to you to decide the type of person you will be; and it is up to you to make it the prettiest picture it can be. That is why you should not be who other people want you to be, or you will be a stranger to yourself all your life. Be the best person you can be, for trying to be the person you are not will never achieve anything.

How To Detox From a Holiday Weekend
After the age of 21 holidays typical mean unusual amounts of food and alcohol. Indulging in extra tasty (read: meaty, boozy, saucy, or sugary) treats is a well-earned privilege. As much as you deserve to enjoy a few days off you also deserve to feel great and guilt-free. Here are a few quick ways to detox from a holiday weekend.
Get Up Early & Go For a Jog
Yeah, I hit you with a hard one to start but jumpstarting your day with a solid 20-30 minutes of cardio will kick your metabolism back into gear and help process any fats and alcohol you've consumed. If you're fortunate enough to have a long weekend ahead getting a jump on your physical activity the day before you head back to work will make a much-needed midday nap even more restorative.
There's no way around it, you need to stay hydrated especially in the summer months. Find a large water bottle and chug, chug, chug. Focus on heavy intake during the morning hours so your body has time to flush while you're active during the day.
Energize Your Organs
Did you know a simple stretch could detoxify your body and tone your organs. Well it can, actually many can, but my favorite is a yoga pose called "revolved chair." Start with a few deep breaths, lifting your arms up above your head then exhaling down to touch your toes first then go right into this stretch. Whether this is your total workout for the day or a primer to a sweat session - your body will thank you.
Now that you're feeling better, Instagram some pics of yourself with #SuberFit or tweet me how you're feeling, I want to know!

I was privileged to attend "They Called Me Lizzy… from slavery to the White House" at the Attleboro Art Museum. It was a one-woman show about Elizabeth Keckley, a slave who earns her freedom as a seamstress and becomes the "modiste" for Mary Todd Lincoln. Stephanie Jackson, the actress, made the pain and the triumphs of "Lizzie" come alive. The story does not end happily — for either Mrs Keckley or Mrs. Lincoln — and was all the more moving because of this. Keckley's grave has only recently been rediscovered.
In October, Rhode Island (many different organizations within the state) is celebrating Louisa May Alcott with Living Literature performances, showings of the movie Louisa May Alcott: the Woman Behind Little Women and book discussions of Harriet Reisen's biography. Louisa May Alcott was much more than a children's book author. She was a nurse for a short time during the Civil War, a European traveler, a writer of "pot-boilers" and the mainstay of her family. I look forward to seeing the Living Literature performance, since I am "portraying" Alcott for the Attleboro Area Civil War Commemorative Committee's Nov. 5th program at the First Baptist Church in North Attleboro.
If you would like to read about Elizabeth Keckley — or have your children read about her — check out these books.
For Louisa May Alcott, try Harriet Reisen's book.
For books about Mary Todd Lincoln, try this one by Jean Baker.
I'm only up to 83 books for the year. The George R. R. Martin book I'm reading, A Dance with Dragons, is over 900 pages. I am probably going to have to bring it back unfinished and check it out again later. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to read 17 more books in the next 3 months. I'm listening to Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh which I hope to have for our December Evening discussion. I just hope it doesn't become too popular so that we can't get the copies I've placed on hold!

One occupant of the house died and everyone on the plane perished, including Susan Wehle, of Amherst New York. Her family filed a lawsuit Thursday in federal court in Buffalo. The action serves as the first of what is expected to be a long line of lawsuits stemming from the tragedy.
Wehle's family alleges negligence and seeks unspecified damages in the plane crash that took Susan's life. Defendants named in the action include Continental Airlines, which is based on Houston Texas, Pinnacle Airlines of Memphis, Colgan Air of Manassas, Virginia and Bombardier Aerospace, which is the Canadian company based in Montreal that manufactured the stricken Dash 8 Q400 aircraft.
The lawsuit alleges that the plane was equipped with inadequate deicing equipment and that the crew—which also perished in the crash—was improperly trained.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is still actively investigating the crash and has consistently maintained that a final cause won't be determined for months. However, amidst rampant speculation, the NTSB has focused on the weather conditions at the time of the crash, together with the actions of the crew.
The build-up of ice on the wings and tail of a plane can dramatically affect an aircraft's ability to generate lift and remain in the air. While icing conditions were prevalent the night of the crash, other aircraft—including at least one other Bombardier Dash 8 Q400—managed to land safely at Buffalo. The NTSB has since determined that the aircraft assigned to Flight 3407 was relatively new and was equipped with a pneumatic deicing system. It has also been confirmed that the system was activated 11 minutes into the flight, after the plane lifted off from Newark, New Jersey.
The crew reported icing conditions just prior to the crash, but the NTSB has yet to determine just how serious the atmospheric condition was at the time.
Flight 3407 was coming in on approach to Buffalo Niagara International Airport just after 10pm on February 12th on autopilot, which is relatively standard procedure when anything but severe weather conditions are present. While the NTSB and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) differ on when is the most appropriate time to disengage the autopilot when icing conditions are present, the fact remains that according to the onboard flight data recorders the autopilot was automatically disengaged when the plane's anti-stall system sensed a problem, activating the stick-shaker and stick-pusher system.
The latter system is designed to alert the pilot of a serious issue requiring immediate corrective measures and to take matters into its own hands by pushing the yoke forward, nosing the plane down in an effort to generate additional lift to avoid a stall.
READ MORE Plane Crash LEGAL NEWS
Instead, the Bombardier twin turboprop lurched and pitched violently in the air before dropping an incredible 800 feet in just a few seconds. Experts at the scene indicated that in view of a confined debris field, the aircraft would have possessed little forward motion and more than likely dropped onto, rather than plowed into the occupied home in Clarence Center.
A total of 49 people died on the plane, including the crew of 4 and a 5th off-duty pilot who was deadheading in from Newark. There were no survivors on the plane. One person died on the ground.
As the investigation continues, the lawsuit filed Thursday is the first of what is expected to be many.

Lady Gaga and Perez Hilton and currently locked in an a war of words with each other, with Gaga going insane after finding out her former friend Perez was in her apartment building and has accusing him of 'stalking' her.
Gaga took to Twitter to post an angry rant (which she has since deleted) about the 'sick' blogger after one of her fans informed her he was being shown around an apartment inside her New York building, and she also claimed he has been 'harassing' her.
She wrote: 'STAY AWAY FROM ME + MY FAMILY YOU ARE SICK TRYING TO RENT AN APARTMENT IN MY BUILDING TO STALK ME. LEAVE ME ALONE!!!
'DO I NEED TO BE SHOT IT IN THE HEAD FOR PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT HIM AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT HARASSES ME HAS GONE TOO FAR? I'M A HUMAN BEING. (sic)'
Shortly before the feud erupted, Gaga took to Twitter to reveal Perez had poked fun at her when she was left wheelchair-bound after suffering a labral tear on her right hip earlier this year.
She wrote:
Still have the text Perez sent me of me in a wheelchair w the words KARMA written across + Madonna pointing a gun at me. Day of my accident
— Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) August 16, 2013
Meanwhile Perez released his own statement on his site claiming his innocence in the while affair saying:
I have long had plans to return to New York City more permanently. New York was my home for 6 years in the mid 90s, before I moved to Los Angeles. I also lived here for 3 months last year while doing an off Broadway show. I'm a new father and I am primarily focused on my family and where we will be most happy. I love New York and that is where me and my growing family want to call home right now. Sunday, my realtor showed us a list of possible apartments to rent. I learned only after the fact that Lady GaGa lives in one of the buildings we looked at, and she was across the country in Los Angeles when I viewed that building. After a day of innocent house-hunting, I am devastated and my heart hurts that my former very good friend, a person I used to call my 'wifey' and traveled the world with, is making very public and very untrue allegations about me on Twitter. While it is still too painful for me to go into detail about why I chose to no longer make her a part of my life, I will say that I am a critic and not a "stalker". Any allegation that I am stalking her, based on a day of house hunting with my baby boy and my mother, is utterly false, defamatory and now appears to be putting me and my family in danger. I will continue to be a critic - in a way that is not mean or involves name-calling, and I will continue to have an opinion and talk about music and songs, like GaGa's 'Applause'. I hope her fans stop sending me death threats, as the suggestion that I pose a danger to Lady GaGa is preposterous. If her fans want to send a message of support to Lady GaGa, they should buy her music. Notwithstanding my feelings about our personal relationship, I do wish Lady GaGa happiness and continued success and I assure you my family house hunting has nothing to do with her.
Gaga has now gone back to tweeting manically about her new video debut at 1pm today, because at the end of the day, it's still all about her.

Why should you care?
The Panama Canal route is not only shorter but cheaper than the Suez and Magellan (Cape Horn) routes. A ship crossing the Panama Canal saves 57.6 percent of the fuel consumption costs of traveling through the Suez route and 81.4 percent if it traveled through the Magellan route, in addition to other costs.
It takes 21 additional days for a vessel (depending upon the type and speed of the ship) to pass from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic using the Magellan route, instead of the Panama Canal.

Constructed Boundaries: Reading Architecture in Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping and Jeffrey Eugenides's The Virgin Suicides
Date of Award
Degree Name
Master of Arts
First Advisor
Klaver, Elizabeth
This thesis project analyzes the influence of the built environment on subjectivity in late twentieth-century American fiction. Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping, I contend, uses domestic architecture to inform the concept of female-as-subject, specifically through additive and subtractive construction techniques. These techniques influence public and private definitions of female, as they are present at the level of the individual house as well as the level of the town of Fingerbone as a cohesive unit. Jeffrey Eugenides's The Virgin Suicides interrogates ethnic subjectivity in a suburban setting. A strict grid orders the suburban landscape which, although visually unifying a group of ethnically diverse individuals, ultimately isolates the subjects--down to the scale of the single-family home--as it encourages collective memory, ethnic repression, and the standardization of perspective. In these novels, architecture is an agent which negotiates subjectivity and the vehicle that communicates ideology through and with the material reality of these homes. Reading architecture helps us understand who these characters are and how the built environment shapes the way they have come to define themselves and others as individuals, which ultimately allows for the subversion of such definitions.

This is for those who don't speak Arabic. In my last post I didn't explain this properly.
Watch this short movie for Al-Jaafari taking the oath.
Before you do read these notes :
1. Jaafaari brings in his own "oath".
2. Jafaari starts to replace the "original" oath which has the word "democratic & federal" with his own one which doesn't have "democratic federal".
(timing = seconds 16)
3. He whispers to the speaker who tells Jafaari (God Save You) then he mutters a few words and the speaker says something like (Yeah unfortunately)
4. Jafaari and all those after him will read "Jafaari's version of the oath" which does not have the words "federal and democratic Iraq".
Shame on you Jafaari ! You did that intentionally in the front of the whole world.
This incident might be very small, but it has a very large meaning, "democratic Iraq" does not exist in Al-Sistani's 169 coalition dictoinary..
(read my previous post to know what this about)
Another update : Medya says that the Iranian TV networks are calling the insurgents "terrorists" after Jafaari has become a PM. Before Jafaari they were calling the "insurgents" as "Iraqi resistance".
Are you thinking what I am thinking ?!

Sorry but this item is currently unavailable.
Please check back at a later stage.
Product Description
PTM Myco
Commercial growers, farmers, graziers and landscaping professionals know that healthy soils mean lush greens, high-yield crops, and vibrant flowerbeds.
But indiscriminate use of fertilizers and pesticides to achieve healthy landscapes, bountiful harvests, and green fairways has polluted our lands and waters. Unless we strike a balance between our methods and goals, our soils may no longer be able to support life in the future.
With PTM-Myco, healthy greens and gardens are now possible without the worries of pollution. At the same time, it helps reduce input costs, too!
Beneficial Soil Biology Restored
PTM-Myco contains scientifically selected natural soil microorganisms like endomycorrhizae that will colonize the root area, breakdown hard-to-capture nutrients, and make these micro/macronutrients available to plants.
It also restores fertility and tilth to both sandy and compacted clay soils. Vegetable gardens, lush lawns and green turf in sand-based or hard clay soils are now possible.
Fertilizer Application Minimized
PTM-Myco contains premium grade sod, seed, plant and soil fertility boosters designed to work with or without fertilizers. The microbial ecosystem at the roots keeps soils in great shape, reducing fertilizer use by 25-60%. These organisms also hold nutrients in the soil to prevent water runoff, further cutting down on the need for fertilizers .
Used as a soil conditioner, PTM-Myco's formulation reduces environmental stress and the biology increases the soil's capacity to recycle nutrients.
Water Costs Reduced
Microorganisms in PTM-Myco helps increase plant intake and water storage, protecting plants from drought stress and reducing frequent watering.
PTM-Myco uses well or portable city water as well as filtered water from stock tanks for mixing, thus eliminating the need for additional water dechlorination or treatment expenses.
Earth Friendly
In addition to its proprietary biological content, PTM-Myco has specific ratios of seaweed extracts, humic and fulvic acids, natural plant regulators like cytokinins and gibberellins, and trace minerals and elements. These non-proprietary ingredients contribute to a nutrient rich soil and more disease-resistant plants, reducing or even eliminating the need for synthetic fertilizers or pesticides.
The soil inoculating microorganisms, natural plant growth hormones, and organic carbons in PTM-Myco all work together to enhance the soil as well as the roots. For growers and gardeners looking for an all-in-one product that will address soil, root, and foliar needs, PTM-Myco is the go-to baseline product.
If there's only one soil fertility booster to use, PTM-Myco is The One.
DIRECTIONS: Suggested rates - Apply 0.5 to 0.75 oz of product per 1000 square feet or 16 – 24 oz per acre for pastures. Can be applied with each watering event.
For constant feeding dilute 1 oz of product for every 10 gallons. Adjust rates to your growing conditions.
Mix with sufficient water to allow for effective application depending on density of the foliage. A good starting point is to use 1 gallon per 1000 sq ft for turf or 10 gallons per acre for pastures. The key is to get the product to reach the roots. Use a minimum of 0.75 oz per 1000 sq ft each time during the first 3-4 watering events for highly stressed environments. Higher amounts will not burn the plants or roots.
Apply three to four times per season. Apply early spring and fall at minimum.
Apply through fertigation / irrigation or with a broadcast sprayer. Agitate well when mixing into sprayer. Watering into soil increases effectiveness.
Can be tank mixed or blended into a dry-mix and applied with fertilizer.

pretty good stuff try and see.
" I used it on tomatoes, okra, and corn. Tomatoes had a noticeable difference between treated and untreated. Corn not so much but I had problems with the corn this year. Now okra it made a huge difference. Im talking 5 or 6 inch diff in plant and maby 2 to 1 pod production! I think it helps with nematode. This stuff is a must for sand you might not be able to tell a difference in good clay with perfect nutrient level. But in sand or with marginal nutrient levels which is most people have it is great. Keep up the good product. And thanks "
" We used your SRT last season and we've never seen our garden perform like that!
Side by side comparison of our beans was just incredible. The treated side kept producing right through the hot summer and the untreated side struggled to survive."
" We replaced all our banana trees due to the dorought (sic). We used the (SRT) on our replacement trees - in 25 years of growing we never see such root grow in such short time. Leaf color was very green, trees very strong. We were able to harvest few tree only and owner was very happy with the money. Next we will put on mangos and durian tree."
" Six years ago my mother planted blue rose bushes in my yard. Each year it produced buds that rotted and fell off before opening. But this year, after inoculating them with SRT — in extreme drought conditions — my bushes produced buds that opened for the first time! My blossoms were as big as my hand! I gasped when I saw them!".

Quantum Psychology-How Brain Software Programs You and Your World

With his humorous rapier, Wilson pokes and prods our misconceptions, prejudices and ignorance. A quantum banquet. — Ray Tuckman, Broadcaster, KPFK Radio
Three important words: "read this book." Three much more important words: "Do the exercises." Some readers may have already encountered the main principles of this work, either in other books by RAW or by studying general-semantics; I still think it a valuable epitome of some very useful ideas. If nothing else, I think it would reduce the number of Internet arguments that start with "As you could plainly see if you had simply READ what I WROTE …" which would certainly rank as an improvement in MY world.
I approach anything with "Quantum" in the title with a skeptical eye, as I feel the current fashion for explaining everything from ghosts to the impossibility of artificial intelligence by reference to quantum uncertainty, quantum coupling, etc., could use either a strong dose of real physics or just a good long rest. On the other hand, many people still live in the clockwork universe of Newton or even the commonsense world of Aristotle, years after the work of Einstein, Schroedinger, Heisenberg, Goedel, "etc.," revealed the cracks in the foundations of classical and naive physics and mathematics, so anything that raises awareness of these changes in the intellectual climate will have some good effects down the line.
I once referred to general-semantics as "21st Century Zen Epistemology," which might fit _Quantum Psychology_ as well. RAW has laid out a series of observations and a program of exercises that can, quite simply, make your mind work better, unless you are among the one in a scadzillion who has already completed the work.
Product Description
Throughout human history, thoughts, values and behaviors have been colored by language and the prevailing view of the universe. With the advent of Quantum Mechanics, relativity, non-Euclidean geometries, non-Aristotelian logic and General Semantics, the scientific view of the world has changed dramatically from just a few decades ago. Nonetheless, human thinking is still deeply rooted in the cosmology of the middle ages. Quantum Psychology is the book to change your way of perceiving yourself — and the universe. Some say it's materialistic, others call it scientific and still others insist it's mystical. It is all of these — and none. The book for the 21st Century, complete with exercises. Picks up where Prometheus Rising left off. Some say it's materialistic, others call it scientific and still others insist it's mystical. It is all of these — and none.

Rapper attends friend's funeral
Eminem has paid tribute to the late rapper and D-12 bandmate Proof.
As previously reported, the Detroit rapper – who was best man when Eminem remarried at the beginning of the year – was killed during a nightclub shooting last week.
Eminem attended his friend's funeral in Detroit on April 19, following his tribute posted on the D-12's official website.
As previously reported wrote Eminem: "You don't know where to begin when you lose somebody who's been such a big part of your life for so long. Proof and I were brothers."
Calling his friend an "ambassador of Detroit hip-hop", he added: "Without Proof's guidance and encouragement there would have been a Marshall Mathers, but probably not an Eminem and certainly never a Slim Shady."
Proof was killed during the shooting on 8 Mile road in Detroit – the neighbourhood where Eminem's semi-autobiographical film of the same name was set.

The Heliotrope DTT-600 is a basic ON/OFF differential temperature controller from the late 1970s and early 1980s for use with drain down systems. It was considered a basic workhorse controller for the solar water heating industry. This controller has two 120 VAC outputs that are hardwired directly to the drain down valve and the circulation pump. Two relays rated at 10 amps or 1/3 HP are the final output devices that switch power. The controller incorporates a solid state operational amplifier to determine when the pump should be turned ON and OFF.
A July, 1979 Heliotrope product sheet shows the DTT-600 solar thermal controller as having turn ON and OFF differential temperatures of 9 ºF and 3 ºF respectively, i.e., ON/OFF delta Ts = 9º/3º. However, I've tested this controller and its delta Ts are 6.5º/2º @ a storage temperature of 77 ºF, 7º/1.5º @ a storage temperature of 126 ºF, and 8º/1.5º @ a storage temperature of 154.5ºF.
The default HIGH LIMIT, as delivered from the factory, was spec'ed at 180 ºF. As designed, the HIGH LIMIT sensor for this controller is spec'ed as being a 3 K ohm thermistor sensor. However, upon request, the internal circuitry can be modified to allow the HIGH LIMIT to be changed from the standard 180 ºF to 170 ºF or 160 ºF for a $10 service fee.
This controller was designed to operate with two 3 K ohm thermistor sensors for the ON/OFF differential function, one 3 K ohm thermistor sensor for the HIGH LIMIT function, and one FS-5 snap switch sensor for the LOW LIMIT function. During my experience with this controller I've found that the ON/OFF differential function works just as well with 10 K ohm thermistor sensors as with 3 K ohm thermistor sensors. However, they must be one value or the other, i.e., don't mix the sensors by having a 3 K ohm sensor for the collector and a 10 K ohm sensor for the storage sensor. The internal circuit can also be modified (for a $10 service fee) to allow the HIGH LIMIT to operate with a 10 K ohm sensor and give the 180 ºF, 170 ºF, or 160 ºF limits. If the HIGH LIMIT function option is not needed, the HIGH LIMIT sensor input wires are simply left unconnected. If the LOW LIMIT function option is not needed, the LOW LIMIT sensor input wires are simply shorted together.
If you are looking to replace your defective DTT-600 controller or just want one as a backup, order this one today as it is the only one left. Prices shown do not include postage. Colorado sales will be charged the appropriate sales tax. Yes, I accept credit card payments through PayPal, checks, and money orders. For questions or to place an order, send me an email (see top of this page) stating what you are interested in along with your zip code. I'll check the postage to your zip code and send you a return email with the total cost.

Don't tell anyone but sometimes I spend my free time watching "Friends" marathons on TV. I believe that the "Friends" ensemble was exceptional in their day. "Modern Family" is right up there with "Friends" now, but I have been watching "Friends" since the series began in 1994. By then I had three small children, and I made sure they were all in bed before my show began. "Friends" reminded me of my time in NYC in the 1980s – working an entry level job, living paycheck to paycheck, spending as much time as possible with friends, and, of course, drinking lots of coffee in the corner coffee shop.
The six cast members became my friends during the show's ten-year run and I cried during its final episode. But, by the time Monica and Chandler got married in the last season in 2004, a young entrepreneur and his friends were launching Facebook, and friendship and social connection would be forever changed.
In the past few years I have found my three oldest and dearest friends on Facebook – one whom I have known since birth, as our mothers were pregnant together, and we lived in a three-family house in Boston; one whom I met in the 7th Grade and who was my best friend throughout junior high and high school; and one who was my maid of honor and partner in crime in NYC and who now lives in Paris. Sadly, we had lost touch through the years while life was happening, but thankfully, we have reconnected with the help of Facebook. I have visited with two of the three in person in the past few years, and one literally just found me last week! Plans for a visit are definitely in the works.
As of January 2018, Facebook had more than 2.2 billion monthly active users (Wikipedia). The company has certainly been under scrutiny this year for privacy issues, fake accounts and false news that is being spread on their platform. Many users have left – Jim included – because of the mean-spirited political rhetoric coming from both sides, but that is another story. To me, Facebook, at its core, is good.
Helping friends connect is important for the well being of humans. In case you missed it, this past Sunday was International Friendship Day and according to many recent studies "people who have strong social relationships tend to live longer than those who don't" (Social Relationships and Mortality Risks, 2010). Although, however great our networks may be on Facebook or other social media sites, our inner circle is much smaller. "The average American trusts only 10 to 20 people" (Segregation in Social Networks Based on Acquaintanceship and Trust, 2011). And, that number may be declining. "From 1985 to 2004, the average number of confidants that people reported having decreased from three to two" (Social Isolation in America, 2006). The important piece here is that we need some one, or a handful of people, with whom we can share our innermost hopes, dreams and fears.
In "How to Make Friends, According to Science' by Ben Healy in The Atlantic last week, "Reviving dormant social ties can be especially rewarding. Reconnected friends can quickly recapture much of the trust they previously built, while offering each other a dash of novelty drawn from whatever they've been up to in the meantime." I can attest that this is true! You can pick up where you left off in the trust department and the catching-up is nostalgic, heartwarming and just plain fun. After all, what are friends for?
At Kent School one of the essential pillars of our school philosophy is Friendship. We name it and intentionally find ways for multi-aged groups of students to play, solve problems and share meals together. We believe that friendships are crucial to social and emotional development and we encourage friendships across grade levels and outside of established friend groups. Friends respect each other's differences and celebrate them at Kent School. That's what friends are for.
This summer, I have taken a selfie with my three closest friends. I realized recently that my adult children have become great friends whom I enjoy spending time with. In the past month thanks to vacations and a conference on mind, brain and education science for school, I have visited with each of them. From Montana to Baltimore to Nashville, I have hugged James, Jenna, and Kelsy in the span of 30 days and that fills me with immense joy.
Visit with your friends, make a new friend, connect with an old one or just spend time with your children – the happiness it brings will be great for your heart and soul.
Nancy Mugele is the Head of School at Kent School in Chestertown and a member of the Board of Horizons of Kent and Queen Anne's.

Dixie County BOCC – EOC
Project: Dixie County Emergency Operations Center
Location: Cross City, Florida
Owner: Dixie County Board of County Commissioners
Construction Cost: $1.2 Million
Project Size: 6,172 SF
Completion: May 2009Prior to June 2009, Dixie Emergency Services operated out of an old Bellsouth building, with a part of their operation housed in a temporary trailer. In the wake of the devastating 2005 hurricane season, the Florida Division of Emergency Management and FEMA developed a grant program to help rural counties to upgrade / consolidate their emergency facilities into centralized Emergency Operations Centers. As part of the grant, facilities had to adhere to FEMA 361 standards, which are far more stringent than the State's own EHPA requirements – Dixie EMS received their grant in 2008.
The envelope is comprised of Insulated Concrete Form (ICF), bar joists, lightweight insulating concrete roof and a masonry enclosure with steel grating to house the emergency generator and mechanical equipment. The interior features offices around the perimeter and a large central bull pen for use as a training area and command post during an emergency.

A comparison of selective attention and facial processing biases in typically developing children who are high and low in self-reported trait anxiety
Richards, Anne; French, Christopher C.; Nash, Gily; Hadwin, Julie A. and Donnelly, Nick. 2007. A comparison of selective attention and facial processing biases in typically developing children who are high and low in self-reported trait anxiety. Development and Psychopathology, 19(2), pp. 481-495. ISSN 09545794 [Article]No full text available
Official URL: http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstra...
Abstract or Description
The relationship between children's anxiety and cognitive biases was examined in two tasks. A group of 50 children aged 10 to 11 years (mean = 11 years, SD = 3.71 months) was given two tasks. The first tested children's selective attention (SA) to threat in an emotional Stroop task. The second explored facial processing biases using morphed angry-neutral and happy-neutral emotional expressions that varied in intensity. Faces with varying levels of emotion (25% emotion–75% neutral, 50% emotion–50% neutral, 100% emotion–0% neutral [prototype] and 150% emotion–0% neutral [caricature]) were judged as being angry or happy. Results support previous work highlighting a link between anxiety and SA to threat. In addition, increased anxiety in late childhood is associated with decreased ability to discriminate facial expression. Finally, lack of discrimination in the emotional expression task was related to lack of inhibition to threat in the Stroop task.

Keygenning Carbon Copy Cloner Keychain Password
Passwords are a modern annoyance and their diversity is something you can't avoid if you want a minimum amount of account security (don't forget to turn on those 2FA options, avoiding SMS versions if possible). They get more annoying when you set a super smart new password with that smug feeling that it is such a great password that you will never forget about it (or something crappy you set in a rush).

In case you didn't know, giant doughnuts are now a thing which, yes, is music to our doughnut-loving ears.
And in news that is bound to make your week an altogether more cheery time to be alive, someone has taken the idea of a giant doughnut and mashed it up with everyone's favourite pasta dish, mac 'n' cheese.
Introducing the mac 'n' cheese giant doughnut, finished with a sprinkling of crushed up Cheetos.
So next time you want an evening of comfort food followed by a bag of Cheetos and a box of doughnuts, why not try your hand at this insane recipe instead, so you can eat your three-course meal all in one sitting.
The idea was the brainchild of Youtube channel HealthyJunkFood who posted this handy video outlining all the steps you need in order to make this beast yourself.
Some things you need to know before getting started:
- You will need to find a giant doughnut mould
- You will need patience - the doughnut has to go in the freezer before it can be fried
- You will need a deep-fat frier
- You need to be ready to get messy.
The final thing to note? You'll need to be ready to consume 8,950 calories.

Summer is a great time for catching up, relaxing, exploring, starting new projects, or perhaps completing work in progress. Reading, of course, is key to all of these. With this in mind, we asked the librarians at St. John's about books they will be reading over the next few months. The library has put up a display of the answers we received — it's on the 3rd floor of St. Augustine Hall. We'll be posting the individual entries here throughout the summer.
Joan D'Andrea, an associate professor in the library and executive director of the university's Italian Cultural Center, writes:
One book I'm reading this summer is the recently published work Ten Years Later, by Hoda Kotb. This is a book about six people who faced adversity and transformed their lives. They forged through abuse, illness, addiction, grief, and job loss. Because of their battles they changed their lives to begin a journey to a better existence. Their stories, encourage, move and even challenge one to do the same. Great reading.

Friday night lights in the desert
#1 Bishop Gorman Gaels hale from Las Vegas, NV and they technically won the national championship last Friday night when they beat St. Thomas Aquinas in triple overtime 25-24. It was one of the best games you'll see at any level this year.
Running back, Biaggio Ali Walsh did the honors with the game winning score on a 2 point conversion and considering who Biaggio spends his time with it's no surprise he's already at the top of his field.
After the game Senior Quarterback Tate Martell reminded a reporter they're 17-0 against nationally ranked opponents. He remained humble, yet shocked by how much he and his teammates have achieved in the past few years.
Tate is a hard commit to Ohio State, but he's just one of many top tier recruits that played in the game Friday night. In fact, Tate was playing against his future Buckeye teammate/target, wide receiver Trevon Grimes – who played great until injuring his leg and was taken out of the game.
With Tate at the helm Bishop Gorman's balanced attack has racked up 2183 yards in 6 games.
Bishop Gorman opened the season with a victory over the Cedar Hill Longhorns, a nationally ranked, out-of-state opponent from outside Dallas, TX. Then they went on to beat a top 10 team with their overtime win against St. Thomas Aquinas, another out-of-state team from Florida.
The best teams in the country fly in to try their luck in Vegas, but the house always wins! Now all they have to do is win their in state schedule, which shouldn't be hard for a team that hasn't lost to an in-state opponent since 2007.

before & after: kate spade-inspired child's room
This post was perfectly timed for Father's Day. I want to give a shout-out to John and his partner for whipping up this amazing room for their two-year-old daughter in just four days! For the amount of cutting, wallpapering and painting involved in this room, that's pretty impressive. It's so bold and bright, with a glamorous fifties vibe to it — a very whimsical reinterpretation of a Kate Spade interior. Well done, John! — Kate
See more of John's Kate Spade-inspired bedroom after the jump!
Time: 4 days
Cost: $145
Basics: The wall was already painted white. I knew that wallpaper was too expensive, and I couldn't find anything like the Kate Spade flowers. I took a picture on my cell phone of the wallpaper flowers at the Kate Spade store and then printed out the picture at home. I then went to Kinko's and printed out larger color copies. I did three sizes of the flowers. The image didn't need to be crystal clear, as I wanted a soft, fuzzy sort of look. So the image worked out perfectly. I then cut out all of the flowers and put them in a big pile and purchased a colored glue stick. The purple color of the glue helped me make sure I was getting all of the edges glued down. I didn't really have a plan on how to put the flowers up; I just stepped back after I glued down each flower and made sure that a pattern was slowly making its way onto the wall. After applying each flower, I pushed down to make sure there were no air bubbles or loose edges. Any flowers that were in corners or that needed to be trimmed to fit an area, I just hand-cut and then glued on.

Knitting Stories Smiley Faces
a kindness workshop by danie
To learn about this project through a video click here.
"Knitting Stories" is a project created and organized by Believe in Kindness, that connects participants with artisan women in Peru, and finally connects them all with underprivileged, sick, and/or abandoned children in Peru.
Through our solidarity workshops, participants receive motivation and take part in a creative activity (painting smiley faces or smiley hearts that have been previously knit) to later be a part of the garment that will be received by a child in need.
In addition to painting the pieces with love, and with the intention to connect and empower people, the participants also write two kind notes; one to thank the artisans for their hard work, motivating them to keep going, and the second one to brighten the day of a child in a very difficult situation.
We help the artisan women earn economic independence through their job of fabricating a garment and add the piece that has been painted by the participant of a workshop. We then donate the warm garments (with the smiley face/heart sewn to it) with notes of empowerment to the children in need.
Knitting stories is an adventure that connects stories with hope.
You can now also help through a donation or a solidarity product (available in our kind shop).
Believe In Kindness is currently bringing warmth, love, and empowerment to children going through chemotherapy and abandoned girls.
We also provide the girls who have been abandoned with therapy.
