GEOL 0104 - Earthquakes and Volcanoes
Earthquakes and Volcanoes
Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, despite being labeled as "natural disasters," are normal, natural geologic processes that have been occurring for billions of years on this planet. Unfortunately, these processes claim tens of thousands of lives and billions of dollars in property damage annually (on average). This course will focus on the fundamental causes of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions and the wide range of secondary effects (e.g., landslides, tsunami, etc.) that accompany these natural disasters. (Students who have completed GEOL 0170 are not permitted to register for GEOL 0104) 3 hrs. lect./1 hr. disc. SCI

The giant statue of Tetsujin-28 (aka Gigantor) in Kobe, Japan's Wakamatsu Park finally wrapped up construction and received its official unveiling last Sunday. Posed like its ready for battle, the monstrous pile of metal stood tall amidst hundreds of spectators.
Originally intended to see the light of day last year, the larger-than-life statue was delayed after multiple problems with funding. However, the immense attention received by the Gundam robot, which towered over Tokyo, prompted organizers to push for Gigantor to eventually claim his place.
Unlike the corporate-commissioned Gundam statue, which was taken down a few weeks ago, the Tetsujin-28 monument is meant to stay as a tourist attraction for the long haul. Erected as both a tribute to the robot's creator (Mitsuteru Yokoyama) and a symbol of the area's reconstruction, it was funded by efforts from local shop owners, who raised more than ¥135 million ($1.5 million USD) for its construction.
The robot measures 60-feet tall and weighs a heavy 50 tons. While the joints appear to be articulated, the statue is stationary and should stay in the same position, unless it ends up possessed by evil spirits who use it to wreak havoc in Japanese streets. Mmm...not likely.

It is believed Chelsea are confident they can complete the signing of Paul Pogba from Juventus in the region of £70million.
The French midfielder is the most in the demand player in the world right now and has been linked to a number of the big European clubs, with Barcelona previously believed to be the favourites for his signature.
Yet it appears Chelsea have jumped to the front of the queue for the talismanic player, with the West London side thought to break the British transfer record to secure Pogba.

Jose Mourinho is believed to be concerned that his midfield of Nemanja Matic and Cesc Fabregas has had a poor start to the season, in particular the Spaniard who looked very light-weight defensively, especially against Manchester City.
Although Fabregas can play the ball from deep in that position, he is poor at defending. In the current system Chelsea use, it would simply not bring out the best of Pogba.
Since re-joining the Blues two seasons ago Mourinho has stuck with his favoured 4-2-3-1 formation which has rarely changed.
If the Chelsea boss was to switch to a 4-3-3, with Matic holding, then Fabregas and Pogba playing ahead of him it could be a truly devastating midfield capable of dominating Europe.
This formation would allow the pressure of defending off Fabregas and allow him to concentrate on what he does best- playmaking.
Pogba has the attributes to become one of the best players in the world, with his silky skills, good range of passing, a fantastic right-foot, as well as his tenacious energy and power.
If Pogba was to play as a holding midfielder then it would completely nullify what makes him such a complete prospect.
Mourinho has failed to bring out the best in players such as Juan Cuadrado and Kevin De Bruyne, who both had the potential to be top players in the Premier League, but for one reason or another they have not worked out.
Cuadrado has since joined Juventus on-loan for the remainder of the season, which could act like a bargaining chip for Chelsea. But the player promised so much when he was in Serie 'A' and the World Cup it is a mystery why he has failed at Stamford Bridge.
Pogba has the potential to be better than both of those players by a long shot, but only if he plays in a role that suits him. If you try to force the French international to play too deep it nullifies what makes him such a prospect.
If Chelsea wants to pay over £70million for a player, you build a team around him, not trying to force him in a system that neuters his talents.
Mourinho has to bring the best out of Pogba or he will have wasted the opportunity to transform him into one of the greatest players of this generation.
Chelsea fans, would Jose Mourinho get the best out of Paul Pogba? Have your say below!

text: Most of our hunting occurs in the desert. Our hunting areas are characterized primarily by sagebrush, creosote brush, and cholla cacti. It's pretty rough terrain subject to very harsh weather extremes. From foot scorching, mouth parching heat in the summer to bone chilling nights in the winter, the desert has a range of temperatures. It also has monsoons, flash floods, wicked lightning, and sand storms. Oh yeah, and it's a desert. So all the water I have to drink to stay hydrated is packed in on my back. The desert is a challenging place to hunt and an even more challenging place to backpack hunt.

Ask the legal expert: Are pregnant employees covered under the Americans With Disabilities Act?
Attorney John Durso, Ungaretti & Harris LLP
Pregnancy alone is not considered a disability under the Americans With Disabilities Act. Only conditions that are the result of a physiological disorder are "impairments" under the ADA. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the agency charged with enforcing the ADA, has specifically stated that because pregnancy is not the result of a physiological disorder, it is not an "impairment" and therefore is not a covered condition.
However, although pregnancy itself is not considered a disability, if a pregnant employee has an impairment as a result of a pregnancy, then the employer should consider whether the resulting impairment rises to the level of a disability under the ADA, such as whether the impairment substantially limits a major life activity. An impairment in this respect would be hypertension, for example.
If a pregnant employee comes to her employer seeking reasonable accommodation for a condition resulting from the pregnancy, and not because of the pregnancy itself, then it is incumbent upon the employer under the ADA to engage in the "interactive process" to determine what accommodation, if any, the employer can provide to the employee in order for her to continue at her job. Remember, in order for the employee to be a qualified individual with a disability under the ADA, the employee must be able to perform the essential functions of her job, with or without a reasonable accommodation. What is reasonable depends on the nature of the impairment and the employee's particular job. As an employer, your duty is to engage in the interactive process with the employee in good faith.

TUSTIN, Calif. --A high-tech helium airship made in an Orange County hangar looks like something from a science fiction movie set.
Though it may look surreal, the airship will take to the skies in the next few months.
It was constructed inside a hangar in Tustin by the Aeros Company under contract from the Pentagon and NASA.
It's a prototype for a larger airship that's designed to carry 66 tons of cargo.
The rigid frame is made of aluminum and carbon fiber, and it combines features of an airship and an airplane.

Frozen trip to Alaska
Purchased from Russia in 1867 for two cents an acre ($7.2 million), Alaska has produced untold wealth for the traveler — in the form of grizzly bear sightings, Eskimo ice cream, tall tales of gold rush men and legendary bush pilots, and endless, pristine wilderness.
But unless you're John McPhee, blessed with organic sensibility and years to explore, Alaska may seem inscrutable. Figures offer some insight for the would-be adventurer. At 586,412 square miles it's by far the largest U.S. state (twice the size of Texas), and it would rank 20th on a list of countries, just behind vast, steppe-laden Mongolia. Snow-covered Mt. McKinley rises up to 20,320 feet, making it the highest peak in North America; the enormous (and melting) Bering Glacier is the largest glacier in continental North America. The many native cultures that survive here include the Eskimo, Aleut and Tlingit.
With all its grandeur, visual and numerical, it's no surprise that 1.5 million visitors come each year to revel in Alaska's rich history, frontier flavor, delicious seafood, unique wildlife and spectacular scenery. But planning a trip to Alaska may prove as challenging as landing a plane on skis — especially for the first-timer or independent traveler. And its massive size, its endless options and the difficulty of reaching the more remote (but incredibly rewarding) regions mean that careful planning is essential. We've outlined some basics on when to go, where to stay, how to get around and what Alaska's five major regions have to offer.
Most tourists visit Alaska between mid-May and mid-September, when average temperatures range from the 50's to the 70's (or above) and the sun stays out in places above the Arctic Circle for a full 24 hours. If you're planning to hike a lot, shoot for later in the season (August), when the ground is dryer and the bugs aren't at their worst (they're awful early in the season). The popular cruise season, during which the majority of visitors call in Alaska, runs from the end of April through September.
While winter weather is certainly brutal, don't discount the colder months entirely — it's the best time to see the Northern Lights or experience one of Alaska's famous winter festivals, like the Yukon Quest sled dog race. The Alaska Marine Highway ferry system, which connects about 30 odd ports along the southern coast of the state, operates year-round.
Choose Your Destination: Where to Go in Alaska
The state is typically broken down into five regions: the Inside Passage (or Southeast Alaska), a collection of islands and fjords that semi-connect the lower 48 to the Alaskan mainland; Southcentral, the state's most populous region, and home to Alaska's largest city, Anchorage; Southwest Alaska, where the Aleutians stretch west like a string of jagged pearls toward Asia; the Interior, with Fairbanks as the gateway to all points Arctic; and the Far North, which extends up to the Arctic. Most tourists stick to one or two regions, and visit via a cruise or packaged tour.
Getting to the Inside Passage (via cruise ship or ferry) and Southcentral (most flights to Alaska come into Anchorage) is a relatively easy, affordable prospect, but accessing points further north and west — especially if you're after a true wilderness adventure — can involve costly flights to remote locations.
The Inside Passage: Forged millions of years ago by powerful glaciers, Alaska's Inside Passage is a corridor of loosely connected islands and deep fjords that link the lower 48 (from Puget Sound, Washington) to the Alaska mainland. To the east is Canada; to the west is the Pacific Ocean. The relatively mild climate is ideally suited for bald eagles, humpback whales and sea lions, so wildlife viewing is a major attraction — and with an endless number of sheltered bays and placid stretches of water, touring by kayak is ideal. One of the region's major attractions is Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, a jagged marine wilderness comprising 16 tidewater glaciers that flow from the surrounding snow-capped mountains. The park, which can only be reached by sea or air, even has snorkeling excursions (with wet suits).
There's a lengthy list of fascinating coastal towns, like Sitka and Skagway, rich with gold rush history and symbols of Russian heritage, especially in the form of onion-domed churches. Ketchikan is a center for native Tlingit culture, with totem pole parks showcasing the indigenous heritage. The region includes Alaska's capital city of Juneau, an "urban" center (seriously, the population is around 31,000) with its nearby icy blue Mendenhall Glacier. Juneau is accessible by plane from Seattle, but most travelers visiting the Inside Passage do so via cruise ship.
Southcentral Alaska: Half of Alaska's population lives in Southcentral Alaska, home to the state's best road system and the most amenity-laden tourist infrastructure. Anchorage is Alaska's largest city (population: 293,000+) and cultural hub, and most flights into Alaska land here. The city is connected to the lower 48 by the well-maintained Alaska Highway, which cuts through Canada to get around the islands of the Inside Passage. For many travelers, Anchorage serves as a comfortable base camp for further wilderness exploration. During the snowier months, travelers have easy access to top-notch skiing (alpine and cross-country), snowboarding, dog sledding and ice fishing.
To the south of Anchorage, travelers will find the stunning Kenai Peninsula, location of Homer, the so-called halibut fishing capital of the world, and Seward, gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park — which looks like a postcard from the ice age with its glaciers, mountains and barren rock formations. Prince William Sound, situated on the eastern side of the Kenai Peninsula, offers world-class whale watching for those seeking a peek at humpback, orca and gray whales.
Southwest Alaska: Getting more rugged, Alaska's less accessible Southwest boasts thousands of miles of Pacific coastline, incredible opportunities to spot bears and birds, and still-active volcanoes. Much of the Southwest can be reached only by plane or boat. The region is also home to numerous native populations, and so offers enriching travel opportunities to learn about indigenous cultures. The inland community of Bethel, located some 40 miles from the Bering Sea, is the administrative hub for more than 50 smaller Native Alaskan villages, and features a yearly traditional native dance festival.
Further south are the Aleutians, an island chain that stretches 1,200 miles west toward Asia, home to numerous charming native fishing villages. Aleuts are believed to have crossed the Bering land bridge between Asia and North America some time during the second ice age (12,000 to 15,000 years ago).
While the fishing enthusiast will find no shortage of world-class angling throughout Alaska, Kodiak Island, located on the eastern side of Southwest Alaska, is one of Alaska's most important fishing ports. The harbors are filled with hundreds of commercial fishing vessels, and opportunities for deep-sea fishing abound. Kodiak hosts a crab festival over Memorial Day Weekend, complete with fishing-related competitions, art, music and, of course, food.
Interior Alaska: Alaska's massive central Interior region is home to North America's tallest peak, the 20,320-foot Mt. McKinley, and the small city of Fairbanks, the gateway city for exploring Alaska's most unforgiving terrain. Travelers visiting in June can marvel over the 24 hours of light here (a combination of sunlight and twilight). During winter months, Fairbanks' skies are the stage for the stunning aurora borealis. There are also a handful of developed hot springs near Fairbanks (60 to 170 miles away, that is).
A two-hour drive south from Fairbanks is the much-heralded Denali National Park and Preserve, a wildlife-rich, tundra-covered expanse dotted with mountain lakes — with towering Mt. McKinley and its sister peaks as the backdrop. The Interior is also known for its gold rush history, and more than 100 years after gold was first "discovered," there are still working gold mines in the region.
Far North: North of Fairbanks, travelers find the mostly untamed Arctic Alaska, which extends 500 miles all the way to the Arctic Ocean. We say "mostly untamed" because stretching north/south along the unimaginably desolate Dalton Highway is the 800-mile-long Trans-Alaska Pipeline, which brings barrel upon barrel of oil south from Prudhoe Bay.
Around the summer solstice, the sun never sets in this part of the world (it never rises during the winter solstice) and no one but the hardiest of folks — including the Inupiat and Yup'ik people — call the region home. The limited number of travelers who do make it here, the vast majority of whom visit during the summer months, get a nearly unadulterated look at undisturbed Alaska. Wildlife abounds, with brown bears, moose, musk ox, wolves and even polar bears traversing the lands. Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve is situated here — a huge expanse four times the size of Yellowstone, studded by two massive ice-covered peaks. Another spectacular Far North destination is the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR or Arctic Refuge), a key calving area for more than 150,000 porcupine caribou as well as the center for a hot-button "to drill or not to drill" debate.
Most attractions in the Far North are only reachable by air. Travelers who are going to spend any amount of time trekking through the untamed Far North bush must bring everything they need to survive – or make the smart choice and book a trip with a full-service adventure tour provider.
Slightly more tourist friendly is Nome, a town rich with gold rush history, and the famous ending point for the yearly Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race (held in March). Another "popular" destination is the 3,500-resident Inupiat Eskimo village of Kotzebue, which features a museum of native history and serves as a taking off point for rafting and float trips. Both towns are accessible only by plane.

I was living in La Jolla and this publication called The Reader wrote an unflattering item about me alleging I was involved in some kind of a conspiracy to defraud. It simply wasn't true. I demanded a retraction, which they dutifully published. Then I got an idea, which essentially was they weren't entitled to the benefit of the law about retractions, because it applies only to newspapers, and they weren't a newspaper. Rather, they were more akin to a magazine. It came out weekly and didn't have any news in it. Magazines aren't subject to the same time pressure as newspapers because they have a more leisurely publication schedule. They have more opportunity to check things out and thoroughly investigate the facts. Because they're so busy, newspapers should be excused from this process if they make honest mistakes (this latter proposition is somewhat dubious). Having admitted their article was false, The Reader was liable to pay damages. I owe this idea to Carol Burnett, who had filed a lawsuit against the National Enquirer after they published an article alleging she had gotten into an argument with Henry Kissinger, implying she was intoxicated. The Supreme Court recently had ruled on her case, upholding this theory. I saw a creative opportunity to deploy it, so I filed a lawsuit.
The Reader was owned by somebody named James Holman. It was edited by somebody named James Mullin. The offending article was written by somebody named Paul Kreuger. hey were, of course, as sore as a boiled owl about getting sued. hey had an insurance policy and the insurance company assumed defense of the case. hey hired an attorney named Steven B. Davis, then of the well-respected San Diego law firm of Higgs Fletcher & Mack. I hired a well-respected attorney named Paul R. Kennerson. Then everybody hit the mattresses.
The Reader's defense was quixotic. They retained private investigators, took depositions, sent out stacks of interrogatories, requested the propounding of documents, etc. etc. They never were able, though, to articulate a coherent defense. They really couldn't, given the Carol Burnett opinion from the Supreme Court. They hadn't conducted any in-depth interviews (much less even call me to see what I had to say). They hadn't done any thorough research. It was almost as if they'd made the whole thing up. Real newspapers, on the other hand, investigate their stories.
The Reader's already difficult position was compounded by several serious unforced tactical errors. At one point they in effect admitted the article was defamatory and libelous per se, i.e. one didn't have to do anything other than look at the article itself to discern it was problematic. Then, they in effect admitted their retraction was insufficient. So which does one believe – the original article, or the retraction? It's a real-world illustration of the liar's paradox. Kennerson and I had a hard time figuring out what they thought they were doing.
During the course of the case, The Reader filed not one but two motions for summary judgment, which is a legal proceeding terminating an action before trial on the grounds there are no factual disputes but instead the controversy solely involves an interpretation of the law. The best one was "even though we walk and talk like a magazine, we're really a newspaper in disguise, so Carol Burnett doesn't apply to us."
Combating this motion was a lot of fun Posing as potential advertisers, we uncovered The Reader's network of affiliated publications owned or controlled by a company called The Ruxton Group. We got all of their publicity and advertising materials. We found articles discussing their business model The late 1960s saw the origin of underground publications such as the Berkeley Barb. Gradually these evolved into publications like the L.A. Weekly and The Reader No longer espousing a principled alternative viewpoint, their business model basically was to give away the publication for free in the hopes that advertising revenue, entertainment listings, gossip and salacious personal classified advertising by people looking for sex would cover its costs. It was more like the National Enquirer than a legitimate newspaper. A lot of this seems pretty dated now because most of it has been displaced by web sites such as Craig's List. So you have to imagine how people did things before the internet.
We found a bunch of expert witnesses, some famous, to analyze the differential characteristics of The Reader as opposed to genuine newspapers Examining back issues, they all opined The Reader was more like a magazine than a newspaper. Here they are. The links are to copies of the actual declarations they filed in the case, and they make for fine reading:
Robert E. Blackmon, then Chairman of the Department of Journalism at California State University, Los Angeles: Blackmon Declaration.
Daniel L. Brenner, formerly Director of the Communications Law Program at UCLA Law School and now a partner in the Communications, Media and Entertainment Group of a large Washington DC law firm: Brenner Declaration.
Jeffrey I. Cole, now Director of the Center for the Digital Future at the USC Annenberg School of Communications: Cole Declaration.
Kenneth S. Devol, now deceased, formerly Professor of Journalism at California State University at Northridge, President of various professional journalistic societies, textbook author: Devol Declaration.
James H. Hayes, then Chairman of the Journalism Department at California State University, San Luis Obispo: Hayes Declaration.
Carl Jensen, Professor Emeritus of Communications Studies at Sonoma State University and an expert on censorship: Jensen Declaration.
Robert G. Meadow, formerly a Professor at the Annenberg School of Communications at USC, now President of Decision Research, a national political polling and focus group research company: Meadow Declaration.
William L. Rivers, now deceased, formerly the Edwards Professor Emeritus of Communication at Stanford University, author of numerous books and articles about journalism and media law: Rivers Declaration.
Jeff Rowe, formerly a reporter for the Wall Street Journal and the Associated Press and a business reporter for the Orange County edition of the Los Angeles Times. Author of Broadcast News Writing for Professionals, still in the journalism business today: Rowe Declaration.
Matthew L. Spitzer, formerly Dean of the USC Law School and now a professor on the faculty of both the Law School and the Business School at the University of Texas: Spitzer Declaration.
As word of the case spread, at the end, I had to turn down several other well-known journalists who wanted to jump on the bandwagon and help establish some basic principles of sound journalism and media ethics. We also commissioned a study by the San Diego State University Journalism Department. It analyzed the time sensitivity of stories appearing in back issues of The Reader and compared them to stories appearing in parallel back issues of the San Diego Union and the San Diego Evening Tribune, at the time San Diego's two daily newspapers. This was a hard-core, empirically-based research effort. They worked really hard and did an amazing job. Summarizing each article, they found the two newspapers had an average of 103 news stories per issue. Whereas The Reader predominately comprised classified advertising, display advertising and event listings. This was pretty persuasive (see the Declaration of Kate Linehan): Linehan Declaration.
The Judge denied The Reader's motion. He said there "is an overwhelming question of fact" about what constitutes a newspaper. He said we had compiled a "magnificent" list of "interesting and high-powered experts." He said there were numerous factual issues about the case (like what exactly The Reader was), precluding entering judgment before trial. All of this took the fellows at The Reader completely by surprise. I have to admit it was pretty entertaining watching them squirm around, not knowing what to do next.
Some time passed and the case was getting close to trial. Around this time Davis shall we say disaffiliated with Higgs Fletcher. Then The Reader's insurance company kicked them off the case and substituted in the well-known libel lawyer Rex S. Heinke of the venerable Los Angeles law firm of Gibson Dunn & Crutcher. Ironically, I used to work there! Kennerson told me Davis had lied about the scope of The Reader's insurance coverage (I'm just reporting what he said to me and I don't know if this is true or not). I have a theory, which is that legal cases don't really get in a position to be settled until the trial date is imminent, because only then do the parties confront the reality of their position. A corollary to this is that no case will settle until the lawyers on both sides have extracted the maximum amount of fees possible from their hapless clients. I do know that within about two weeks after he came on the case, Heinke made a very attractive offer to settle, which we accepted.
The case got a lot of publicity at the time. Not surprisingly, most newspapers took an editorial stance against it, seeing as how they were newspapers. I can see why they were worried: what about stories that regular newspapers publish that aren't time sensitive? Should Carol Burnett's theory be extended to them? The Los Angeles Times: "If a publication looks like a newspaper, it's a newspaper." Maybe they meant its physical appearance, like if it's printed on newsprint? If so, that's a pretty limp criterion. In a lengthy and insightful article, The San Francisco Bay Guardian: my case was "shaping up as one of the most important First Amendment cases in California in years – and potentially one of the most serious threats to non-daily newspapers nationwide." Whew! That's a lot of responsibility! The San Diego Evening Tribune: my case was a "legal and ethical controversy" that focused on "one of the most significant legal issues to confront the California newspaper industry." In another Evening Tribune article: If I won, "papers will be more circumspect about publishing controversial stories and affordable libel insurance will become more difficult to obtain … The public could be denied aggressive reporting. Papers will say it's not worth getting involved in difficult stories." In yet a third Evening Tribune article (I guess they had a lot of time on their hands, or Mullin/Krueger were pals with somebody on their staff): "Hundreds of weekly newspapers may also be in danger. If these smaller, but no less legitimate news organs fear they, too, could be ruled magazines subject to punitive damages, they're likely to feel intimidated … Publications like The Reader must be freed from their legal identity crisis." In other words, if I won, most likely the sky would fall in. The San Diego Daily Transcript (a local legal publication): quoting Davis, we "came out with six guns firing and (the case) assumed a significance I almost never would have envisioned. It's almost taken on a life of its own. He upped the ante … That's how it became notorious." Quoting Mullin: "I've grown to resent this entire incident to the extent we're on the defensive. Somehow the tables have been turned." Poor Jim … complaining about his own sloppy and unethical practices. He should go back to journalism class to learn a thing or two about media ethics and what's involved in being a good editor. I basically come from the school that there's no such thing as bad publicity. So it was very gratifying to have all of these fine publications tut-tutting about my little case.
I'm proud to have made a positive contribution towards advancing California law. In response to my case, bills were introduced in the legislature to abolish the Carol Burnett doctrine. These matured into something called the "anti-SLAPP" law, which stands for Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation. The way this works is something like this. Public figures like politicians or entertainers always have had a hard time suing for libel, because they have voluntarily interjected themselves into the public eye. Private persons, though, haven't gone out and sought publicity. So they were subject to a lesser burden of proof in order to recover. Now, however, the media can publish anything it wants, even if it's false and libelous, on the grounds it's in the "public interest." Since they're publicly participating, their business practices should be exempt from review. The concept of public interest is self-referential. It seems to be pretty much anything they choose to write about, because they wouldn't write about it if it wasn't in the public interest, and having written about it, it automatically becomes in the public interest, if only because they wrote about it. If this seems pretty biased, unfair and convoluted, it's because it is. For sure my case would not be possible, today.
One of the things I found out about myself during the course of the case was that I had the tenacity and perseverance to pursue it to the end. Also, I was more amused than annoyed by their aggressive efforts to subject me to all kinds of psychological distress, emotional trauma and mental turmoil. I can imagine them rubbing their hands together gleefully, saying, "look at this nuclear bomb we've launched in his direction." They grew quite frustrated when it turned out I was impervious to these initiatives. The more impervious I became, the harder they tried to do something to provoke a reaction, which didn't work, so they just got more and more frustrated. Their clients: "work harder, be meaner, what you're doing isn't working!" This switch isn't hard to accomplish: just flip the polarities of your conceptual frame of reference. Rather than becoming agitated or irritated by actions intended to agitate or irritate, derive pleasure and satisfaction from not doing so. In fact, positively ingratiate yourself to your ostensible opponents. Their resulting bewilderment and confusion is far more satisfying than the short-lived jolt from a quick shot of adrenalin that comes from something more retaliatory. Maybe my limbic system is depressed so now I inhibit fear response and my dopamanergic rewards system peculiarly activated, so I actually experience this back-and-forth as pleasurable. his characterological trait would hold me in good stead throughout the rest of my professional career.

17 Day Diet Review
If you have tried other diets and are easily bored with their repetitive approaches to weight loss, the 17 Day Diet claims to give you something different.
This is a diet that consists of four cycles and according to Michael Moreno, its creator, it can be personalized to help you lose anywhere from 10 to 100 pounds easily and safely.
Could this diet, designed by a doctor, finally be the answer to fast, permanent, and sustainable weight loss?
Most diets leave dieters worse off than before – drastically cutting calories and giving them boring food options, and this causes them to overeat once they are done and usually making them gain more weight than they lost.
What is the 17 Day Diet?
As mentioned above, the 17 Day Diet is broken up into three categories.
Cycle 1: is called "Accelerate." This is where you are limited to eating only 1,200 calories a day, and you are promised weight loss of 10-15 pounds.
Cycle 2: is called "Activate." This is where your food plan is alternated with a slightly higher-calorie diet, supposedly to "confuse" the metabolism, keep your diet interesting, and stimulate fat burning.
Cycle 3: is called " Achieve." This is where you are able to eat healthier foods and your overall weight loss decreases.
Cycle 4: is called "Arrive." This final stage is when you arrive at your ideal weight. You follow meal plans from the first three cycles and are allowed more leeway on the weekends.
You are also supposed to exercise 17 minutes during the first two cycles, and 150-300 minutes a week in the later cycles.
How Does the 17 Day Diet Work?
You can find more details about what you can and can't eat on the diet on this professional review of the diet here, but the important thing to know is that you start out with an extremely limited calorie intake, which is why you lose so much weight so fast.
The whole diet in centered around portion control and controlled indulgence. It also encourages healthy substitutes and drinking 64 ounces of water a day.
What Do the Experts Say?
Most critics like that this diet features good food choices, overall message of clean eating, avoiding unhealthy carbs, enjoying foods that you love, and regular exercise. What they dislike is the weight loss theory and restrictions of healthy foods like fruit and low-fat dairy.
Basically, they don't like Moreno's reasoning behind the different cycles and food options, but regardless, it will still work – just for different reasons.
American Dietetic Association spokeswoman Keri Gans, MS, RD says, "There is no evidence that you can fool your metabolism by calorie-shifting but the low-calorie plans featuring healthy foods are a good approach to weight loss."
This is not a bad diet. If you really want to ensure that you are controlling your portion sizes, there are diet pills that work to curb your appetite and help you reduce your calorie intake.

Day Hike Trail is a 4.1 mile lightly trafficked loop trail located near West Portsmouth, Ohio that features beautiful wild flowers and is rated as moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking and trail running and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.

wild flowers
Hiked the west loop on Memorial Day weekend 2018. Actual mileage was about 4.2, not posted 3.7. Some parts were nice. Beautiful hardwood forest with nice assortment of trees , including conifers and some towering oaks. HOWEVER, this trail clearly sees little activity so the trail had lots of sections with long grass/weeds and poison ivy (in the trail). And worse.... 1000's of tics. My wife , son, and I hiked with our dog ... and had to stop every 50 yards for inspection. We had them all over us all day. (And still are finding them hours later)
great trail, just wish they would stop logging everything. Part of the trail is logging roads with the equipment still sitting there.
We opted for the East loop which had some nice single track trail on the far east side, but adds 3 miles or so. There was a map near the trailhead that we took a picture of, since alltrails has the shorter version. The grass was mowed, so no high weeds this time around. There are some small openings that offer some nice views and some deep hollows that would be gorgeous with spring flowers. we'll definitely be doing this one again!
A nice day hiking trail with some nice views. I hike it several times a year. I enjoy Spring and Fall the most.
Trail was a very nice hike. There is actually quite a bit of vertical rise in the trails. I wouldn't take a small child or beginner hiker on this trail just because of the difficulty. There were sections of the hike where you had to wade thru waist high grass so make sure you bring and use bug spray. But overall it was a great hike.
The map from the government does not correspond well with the actual signs on the earth! No where on their backpacking map does it mention an East Loop. But there are signs about the East Loop along the "Day Hike" trail. Their map also does not show this loop. It appears the signs on the trails are referring this loop as the "West Loop".
Wonderful hike!! As the poster before me stated, it is 4.2 miles now. Was a good workout, good elevation change 1.5 miles in. Well marked and in nice shape. Not much to see, but if you love being in the woods like me, I'd be on it everyday.
They've changed this trail. It's now a 4.2 mile hike. It has a wonderful midway point with a great view.
I'm from this area so I should like this trail more than I do, it's a nice hike kind of challenging if you were a beginner or only do short hikes. The real drawback to this trail is there isn't a whole lot to see with the exception of an overlook that's rather nice. It's totally worth it don't get me wrong, it can be a bit challenging at time because it has a lot of up and down hills. Pro tip-travel light
Great hike! Took my an 12 and 14 year old and they did fine. They were dead tired at the end but made it. Give it a shot if you want to challenge yourself.
Definitely more than moderate but not extreme. Creek crossing and large down trees make for some messy points but great trail. Steep ridges on end of clockwise made it more work. Have to hit it again in May and try counter clockwise per other review.
Great trail, although it was more challenging than I expected. Will do it again someday and try to beat my time of 3:35 to complete the 7 miles of steep hills.
My wife and I have hiked this trail several times and have enjoyed the hike tremendously. We have found that traversing the loop in a counterclockwise direction is an easier hike than the clockwise direction. The trail is marked with mile-markers for a clockwise direction of travel; however in this direction there are a couple of fairly long, steep hills at about the 5.5 and 6.5 mile points that tend to make that direction of travel a bit more challenging. Because it is a loop the total vertical rise/fall is the same in either direction, but because the steep uphills come later in the hike when traveling in the clockwise direction they make it more of a challenge.
In the May timeframe there is a section of the trail along the ridgeline (northernmost point of the loop) that is filled with mountain laurel blossoms that are spectacular! I don't think we have ever encountered another hiker on this trail on any of our hikes. Because it does not seem to get much traffic (at least from our experience), it does tend to get overgrown a bit in the summer and there is quite a bit of poison ivy in places. In general we try to hike this trail in the fall through early summer timeframe to avoid the poison ivy. There are a couple of spots where the hiking trail overlaps with a bridle trail and you need to make sure you don't follow the wrong branch. That said, the trail is in great shape and well marked.
All-in-all this is a great wooded hike with many spring wildflowers and great fall colors. While there are not too many spectacular views (better when the leaves are off the trees) it is still well worth the trip and a very enjoyable, secluded place to hike!

McKnight's to hold fourth annual Online Expo next month
McKnight's' Virtual Trade Show just weeks away
Healthcare reform has been a big topic this year. But not everything demands reform. That could certainly be said for the McKnight's Online Expo.

- First I have to start by saying SORRY for posting a photo of my meatballs and not sharing the recipe. How dare I!?
It's really just the same recipe as the buffalo meatballs except I add 3 basil leaves, chopped and 1 T italian spices. I cook them the same way as I do the buffalo balls and then I just add them to marinara sauce instead of buffalo sauce. Viola!
- I need all of you to please check out this post. He took the words right out of my mouth! Remember fitness is a journey, and if you take shortcuts to your final destination- you'll never make it. So, my advice is to just enjoy it, enjoy the pain, enjoy the DOMS, enjoy the small victories.
- I got an email this week asking about competing, if I had ever done a competition or if I plan to. I haven't done one and I literally change my mind every day as far as competing goes. It's not something I've committed to, but it's also not something that is completely out of the picture. If I ever decide to though, you all will be the first to know, promise!
- My workouts have been quite a bit different lately than they were while I was trying to put on muscle, so I thought I would share today's workout with you!
- Make sure you stop by my Facebook page next week, I'll be doing another awesome giveaway with MRM!

|Osteopathic medicine is a distinctive form of medical practice in the United States. Osteopathic medicine provides all of the benefits of modern medicine including prescription drugs, surgery, and the use of technology to diagnose disease and evaluate injury. It also offers the added benefit of hands-on diagnosis and treatment through a system of therapy known as osteopathic manipulative medicine. Osteopathic Medicine emphasizes helping each person achieve a high level of wellness by focusing on health education, injury prevention and disease prevention. Osteopathic physicians, also known as D.O.s, work in partnership with their patients. They consider the impact that lifestyle and community have on the health of each individual, and they work to erase barriers to good health. D.O.s are licensed to practice the full scope of medicine in all 50 states. They practice in all types of environments including the military, and in all types of specialties from family medicine to obstetrics, surgery, and aerospace medicine. D.O.s are trained to look at the whole person from their first days of medical school, which means they see each person as more than just a collection of body parts that may become injured or diseased. This holistic approach to patient care means that osteopathic medical students learn how to integrate the patient into the health care process as a partner. Because of this whole-person approach to medicine, approximately 60 percent of all D.O.s choose to practice in the primary care disciplines of family practice, general internal medicine and pediatrics. Approximately 40 percent of all D.O.s go on to specialize in a wide range of practice areas. In addition to studying all of the typical subjects you would expect student physicians to master, osteopathic medical students take approximately 200 additional hours of training in the art of osteopathic manipulative medicine. This system of hands-on techniques helps alleviate pain, restores motion, supports the body's natural functions and influence the body's structure to help it function more efficiently. Another integral tenet of osteopathic medicine is the body's innate ability to heal itself. Many of osteopathic medicine's manipulative techniques are aimed at reducing or eliminating the impediments to proper structure and function so the self-healing mechanism can assume its role in restoring the person to health.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. _ Wes Herman's company is in a situation that seems a bit unusual these days: With all the problems swirling around in today's economic recession, he's in a hiring and expansion mode.
"We're not just hiring because we're opening stores, but because of the growth at existing stores," said Herman, the owner of The Woods Coffee. His seven-year-old company will soon open its ninth Whatcom County coffee shop and currently employs about 100 people. It needs to hire about 15 people now, and is planning to hire more later this year.
"With all of the bad news these days, I'm grateful to be in this position," Herman said.
Job layoffs have been the biggest economic news for the first six weeks of 2009, but so far it's been an uneven transition regarding who is suddenly out of work. A new state report has identified which jobs are the safest bets to weather the current recession, and which are the most vulnerable.
According to the report from Washington Employment Security Department, health care, education and "green" jobs _ including positions focused on finding new solutions for energy needs _ are expected to be the most recession-resistant in 2009. The industries expected to be the most vulnerable this year are construction, manufacturing, finance, insurance and retail. For details of the report, visit workforceexplorer.com and hit the "Washington Labor Market Quarterly Review, 4th Quarter 2008" link.
Even in the hard-hit industries, however, there will be companies able to thrive, such as Herman's coffee company in retail or Aluminum Chambered Boats in manufacturing, which continues to look for welders and riggers for its projects, said company founder Larry Wieber.

Moxie Cosmos Says…
It's 104 degrees F in Tucson today — but, as they say, "it's a dry heat."
We took a visitor from Cuiliacan, Mexico, to the Arizona Desert Museum last Saturday night, one of the summer evening openings this institution has to allow human beings to view their non-human neighbors who come out at dusk. Our 12-year-old granddaughter, whose father was hosting his week-long visit, was with us. She and her grandfather and I have been to this world-class outdoor exhibit many times. This is the first time I felt sorry for the animals, who are in enclosures, but very large ones that mimic their original habitats. Juan thought it was a beautiful place, and took all kinds of information to share with his colleagues, planning to organize trips for businessmen, government officials, university professors, and students to follow in his footsteps exploring Tucson. This would be a prime stop.
To me, even the cactus pads looked puckered up. We've had no rain. It brought me back to an earlier posting here, about Juanita Ahill, a woman I met writing a story for Arizona Highways in 1976. Her people, then called Papago Indians (now Tohono O'odham) used the red fruit from the tops of tall saguaro cactus "trees" in their cuisine. The tradition of camping out to pick the fruit during the summer, before the rains, had all but died out when I met her; she might have been the only one interested in continuing the practice.
Imagine Papago desert nights around 1910. You would be lying on a cot softened with a blanket, on the west side of the Tucson Mountains, far beyond any city lights. The sky is a canopy of indigo, with pinpricks of starlight gradually becoming larger. The mesquite wood under the fruit pots infuses the air with sweet-acrid odors, familiar, not threatening, just enough to make you sleepy.
These two segments of Juanita's memories I recorded on tape and transcribed are the opening to her new page in the ORAL HISTORY section of my website. This is just a taste.
I don't know that place
we used to go to in a wagon.
We used to go from here
that that
on the other side of Old Tucson by that mountain.
I don't know
what is the name of that mountain.
And we used to camp about almost three
And we stayed there
and my uncle
and my other friends
we went down there.
When I was about
I don't know how old
and my sister is kind of bigger than me and my baby
but now he's hig now. [Laughs.]
And we used to go out and help my mother how to harvest
the fruit.
And they want us to go out and pick the fruit. If we don't do it she used to get after us
get us
make us do it and so we learned from her how to make syrup.
And we gather the fruit and dry fruit.
I think I was around about
about nine or ten.
Ten, I guess.
I don't remember and at someplace the lady said:
"Maybe you must be twelve."
so I remember everything.
My mother has to stay close to us, you know,
she has to be on the other . . .
We used to carry those little
cans . . .
Four pound can?
When we fill it up we have to take it to the big basket
and pour it in there
and so my mother carry it on top of her head when
that basket is full of the fruit.
It's just like a big bowl,
basket, it's willow and
devil's claw.
And they're big ones!
I don't know who took my mother's when she died.
I wish . . .
Somebody got it already.
After that, why the basket was dis'peared. I tried
to ask my sister where did that basket went because
pretty soon we gonna grow up and get married and so we
can go out and collect that . . .
Yes, it was a big one.
About this big.

In a SharePoint 2013 workflow environment it is not possible to break with out of the box workflow actions like in the 2010 versions. To achieve that the webservice call action can/must be used. The following description shows how to achieve that.
Allow workflow to use app permissions
First allow the workflow to use app permissions.
- Go to the site settings
- In the site actions select Manage site features
- Locate the feature called Workflows can use app permissions (should be the last one) and then click Activate.
- Check if it has been activated correctly by revisiting the site features
Create the workflow
After that it is time to create the workflow. In SharePoint Designer 2013 open the site collection.
- Go to the workflow section
- Create a new list workflow (for that library where you want to make it available)
- Give it a name
- In the settings section of the workflow deactivate the checkbox Automatically update the workflow status to the current stage name
- Edit the workflow
- Add the following Actions to the stage 1:
- Log WF Started to the WF history list
- then add tow builds
- Then add a webservice call action
- In the call options enter this in the string builder (build it with Add or Change Lookups): [%Workflow Context:Current Site URL%]/_api/lists/getbytitle('[%Workflow Context:List Name%]')/items([%Current Item:ID%])/breakroleinheritance(true)
- Change the method to Post
- Change the properties of the action
- Then add three additional Action logs, it should look like the following
- In the transition stage let the workflow end
- Save and publish the workflow
Grant full control permissions to the worklow
Now you can grant full control permissions to the workflow, so that it can execute the webservice call with appropriate permissions.
- In the site go to the site settings
- Select the Site app permissions
- Now copy the app identifier like visible in the screenshot (Mark everthing between "|" and the "@" and copy it)
- Navigate to the Grant permission page, you have to enter the follwoing url: http://{hostname}/{catalog site}/_layouts/15/appinv.aspx
- Here paste the app identifier id and click Lookup
- Now the Title and other information should be appear automatically
- In the apps permission Request XML enter the following code (change the site URL to your site URL):
<AppPermissionRequests> <AppPermissionRequest Scope="http://sharepoint/content/sitecollection/web" Right="FullControl" /> </AppPermissionRequests>
- Confirm with Create
- Then a confirmation page should appear, confirm with Trust it
- Thats it, proceed with the next steps:)
Wrap the workflow actions inside an App step
Now finally open the workflow again and wrap the webservice call around an App Step.
- Open the workflow with SPD 2013
- Add an App Step
- Move the Webservice call into that app step
- Republish the workflow
Now go to the document library an test the workflow, the workflow should break the inheritance of that document on which you run it.
