Whalehaven, the recently revitalised boutique winery situated in Hemel-en-Aarde Village at the gateway to the Hermanus R320 Wine Route, extends a warm welcome to visitors this season with various new offerings. Named after the Walker Bay whale sanctuary that shelters migrating southern right whales from Antarctica during the cool winter months, Whalehaven produces a range of wines that appeal to all palates.
The local terroir is celebrated as the latest vintages of award-winning Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, due for release in January, have been sourced from the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, whilst the 2013 vintage of Sauvignon Blanc is from the belt of the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge.
Whalehaven produces classic French-styled single varietal wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot as well as their flagship Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The Bottega family, together with winemaker Reino Thiart, are especially proud of the Whalehaven Pinot Noir 2012 which received a gold medal at the 2013 Concours Mondial in Brussels, and the Whalehaven Merlot 2010 which garnered the 2013 Taj Classic Wine Trophy.
The winery has recently undergone extensive renovations and been transformed into the new Whalehaven Wine Experience Centre. The stylish interior was reinvented by local architect Andrew Greeff and interior design firm Bone Design.
Carpenter Andrew Dominic created a signature oak table that now takes pride of place in the formal tasting room and is cusped by Guideline MNF chairs. Crystal wine decanters were transformed into light fittings by Martin Doller and the table set with wine vases by Aidan Bennetts of Stable. Whale�haven also retails high-end artisan goods that complement their hand-crafted wine portfolio, such as bespoke wine perfumes by Tammy Frazer of Frazer Parfum (an ongoing collaboration in understanding the nature of scent in wine that has lasted for over three years) and collectable ostrich egg-shell wine coolers by Avoova.
�We have created some really unique infused jams with fynbos, ylang ylang, orange blossom and wine jams under a product line which are hand made with love in the Overberg,� says the owner's daughter. �These jams and the chocolates on show echo the aromatic profiles of the wines.�

Pew Thanks President Obama for Fulfilling Promise to Make Our Food Safe
Jan 04, 2013, 12:33 EST
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Erik Olson, director of food programs at The Pew Charitable Trusts, issued the following statement on today's release of major draft regulations to implement the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), which President Barack Obama signed two years ago on Jan. 4, 2011.
"President Obama today has taken an important step forward in the fight to save lives, prevent foodborne illnesses and lower health-care costs.
"Early in his first term, following a deadly outbreak stemming from contaminated peanut butter, the president promised to make our food safer. Within two years, he had signed the Food Safety Modernization Act, which he and bipartisan leaders in the House and Senate worked hard to pass.
"Today, we applaud him and the Food and Drug Administration for taking major action to help fulfill his promise by releasing two important sets of rules to implement the law. Once it is in full effect, FSMA will, for the first time, empower the Food and Drug Administration to take sweeping measures to prevent foodborne illnesses, which sicken about 48 million Americans each year at a cost of more than $77 billion.
"We will continue to work with industry, consumer advocates, survivors of foodborne illness, their families and the administration to ensure that the remaining proposed rules are soon released—and that all the regulations are as strong as possible, quickly finalized and effectively enforced."
The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.

End of Grade Review: Tables, Graphs, and Equations of Proportional Relationships
Lesson 3 of 11
Objective: Students will be able to distinguish between proportional and non proportional relationships and determine a constant ratio between y and x, called the constant of proportionality.
Opener: As students enter the room, they will immediately pick up and begin working on the opener. Please see my instructional strategy clip for how openers work in my classroom(Instructional Strategy - Process for openers). This method of working and going over the opener lends itself to allow students to construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others, which is mathematical practice 3.
Learning Target: After completion of the opener, I will address the day's learning targets to the students. In today's lesson, the intended target is, "I can distinguish between proportional and non-proportional relationships and identify a constant ratio between quantities." Students will jot the learning target down in their agendas (our version of a student planner, there is a place to write the learning target for every day).
Note from Me! This lesson requires that students display data in multiple ways - graph, equation, table, verbal. Students have to reason quantitatively and abstractly (mathematical practice 2) to develop these multiple representations. Problems require students to model real world scenarios (mathematical practice 4). By looking for patterns (mathematical practice 7), students will be able to determine whether relationships are proportional or not.

Resources (2)
Resources (3)
Summarize + Homework
Table Discussion: As a summary to this lesson, I am going to ask that students have a table discussion on what distinguishes a proportional from a non-proportional relationship (see video - Instructional Strategy – Table Discussion). After students have time to discuss in their tables, I am going to ask each table to add one idea to the proportional/nonproportional table that I have drawn on the side board.
Homework: After the table discussion I will pass out the homework, which consists of more test prep questions on proportional relationships!

"I was especially impressed with Andrew the Respiratory Therapist who reviewed my study with me and answered my questions. Andrew thoroughly explained everything about the Cpap machine-from start to finish. I never felt rushed and was assured I could contact him with any additional questions or needs. Andrew told me he would follow up with a call in a week and he did. I believe this center performed the study appropriately and the added benefit of having Andrew teach me about the machine and what to expect was a bonus."

"I recommend them highly!! I took my 2 year old daughter for a sleep study and was very impressed. Our sleep technician was amazing with her, very patient and kind. The DVD we brought to watch while getting her hooked up got stuck in the TV and they vowed to return it. We got a call the next day checking on our daughter and saying how sweet she was, they mentioned the DVD. Several days later, we received the DVD plus a new copy of the Lion King with a nice note. They are very good at what they do and if they can make a 2 year old feel at ease, they can probably do the same with anyone!!"

``We`ll never forget the way you thrilled the nation with your T-Formation.``
Chicago Bear Fight Song.
Bear excitement is no longer in the past tense.
Bear Fever, Bear Mania, is here and now, in evidence almost everywhere on Chicago`s streets.
``We`ll never forget the way you thrilled the nation with your T-Formation.``
Chicago Bear Fight Song.
Bear excitement is no longer in the past tense.
Bear Fever, Bear Mania, is here and now, in evidence almost everywhere on Chicago`s streets.
In Union Station, more than 2,000 commuters and Amtrak passengers, some from as far away as Los Angeles and San Francisco, signed two posters that will be sent to Bear players in New Orleans to show them the fans` unflinching devotion.
In the Sears Tower`s new atrium lobby, Bear memorabilia abounds, including an autographed, large-as-life photo of William Perry, the Bears biggest star.
Over the Board of Trade`s main entrance hangs an orange and blue banner proclaiming, ``We are bullish on the Bears.``
Up and down LaSalle Street, strung from the light standards, are the city`s official banners hailing the ``Super Bowl Bound Bears--NFC
In front of the Art Institute, a couple hundred fans looked on as Mayor Harold Washington gave a sendoff to one of the lions` Bear helmets being shipped on an Amtrak Bear special to New Orleans, where it will be on display in the lobby of the Hyatt Regency through Super Bowl festivities.
In the Daley Civic Center plaza, workmen finished construction of a 20 x 30 foot television screen that will feature Bear game highlights and game preparations and team interviews during the week and will telecast the Super Bowl on Sunday.
Across the street at the Chicago Title and Trust Co. building entrance and in the First National Bank Plaza, Bear flags shared the standards with the American and Illinois flags.
Over on State Street, ``Go Bear`` banners were unfurled across the front of Carson Pirie Scott. In the Palmer House lobby, registration clerks wore Bear uniforms and caps, most with the number 34, a few with 72 and one fellow, who works nights and sports sun glasses, wears number 9.
In the front window of C.D. Peacock, there is a tempting gift for the Bear fan who has everything, including Super Bowl tickets. Seated beneath a goal post and in a ``Super Bowl XX`` are cute little mink Bears that sell for $60, $100 or $200. The largest sports a head band reading ``Rozelle.``
The floral shop in the Bismarck hotel features flowers in the Bear colors including a spray of Birds of Paradise growing out of a uniform bearing the number 72.
Over at Orchestra Hall, a large lobby sign reminds patrons that the Chicago Symphony concert this Sunday will start at 1 p.m. instead of the usual 3 p.m. so as ``To avoid any conflict with the Super Bowl game on that date.`` The large signs in the Evans Fur windows on north Michigan avenue put the idea a little differently--``New England on the New Orleans Menu--no leftovers.``
Out in the suburbs and neighborhoods, the fervor is much the same. Up and down the Ogden Avenue business strip in Downers Grove signs urge the Bears to the ultimate victory.
Youngsters in the playlot of St. Bridget parish in Bridgeport used the mild, sunny day to pre-play the Super Bowl. Ald. Aloysius A. Majerczyk`s 12th Ward office sign urged, ``Go Bears. Go Splat the Patriots.`` Even the window of the Garfield Ridge public library branch cried ``Bear Down Chicago Bears!`` As the Bear fight song says, ``Bear down, Chicago Bears, and let them know why you`re wearing the crown. You`re the pride and joy of Illinois, Chicago Bears, Bear down.``

We also made sure we didn't miss out on the other delicious goodies. We were especially fond of the gourmet champagne garlic mustard from SoNo Trading Company and the variety of baked goods from Cookie Casa and Bake Lab.
As part of our "artisanal" contribution we treated attendees to cups of hot and fresh Single Origin Stumptown pour overs. Though requiring a bit more patience, this special process makes it possible to taste all the subtleties of flavors in the beans, making it worth the extra wait.

Dell unveils its all-new Venue tablets, plus major updates to its XPS Ultrabook line
Dell teased its Intel Bay Trail-powered 8-inch Venue Pro tablet at the Intel Developer Forum last month. On Wednesday, the company introduced several 11-inch versions of the Venue Pro. But don't think Dell is buying into the notion of a post-PC marketplace: It also introduced three new Ultrabooks bearing its XPS brand, including an 11.6-inch, 2-in-1 convertible, and a 15.6-inch model tricked out with discrete graphics and an eye-popping display with a resolution of 3200 by 1800 pixels.
Dell vice president Neil Hand showed me those products at a briefing during IDF last month, along with several other Venue (minus the "Pro") tablets that will run the Android operating system (TechHive editor Armando Rodriguez has the scoop on those devices).
One operating system Dell has lost all interest in is Windows RT, and Hand is apparently unconcerned that consumers will associate the Venue and Venue Pro brands with Dell's unsuccessful smartphone effort (Dell exited the U.S. smartphone market in early 2013). Hey, why waste a perfectly good brand name?
Venue 8 Pro
Hand briefly showed the Venue 8 Pro during one of the IDF keynotes, but he revealed few details about the tablet at that time. Today, the company announced that the Venue 8 Pro will feature an 8-inch IPS display with ten touch points and a resolution of 1280 by 800 pixels. It's powered by Intel's quad-core Atom Z3740D processor (Bay Trail family) and 2GB of single-channel DDR3/1600 memory. It has 32GB of flash storage, which can be expanded up to 96GB via a MicroSD card reader (a model with 64GB of storage that can be expanded to 128GB will also be available).
The Venue 8 Pro has a 5-megapixel camera in the back, and a 1.2-megapixel camera in front. The 0.35-inch-thick, 0.87-pound tablet is powered by an 18Whr (4830mAh), 2-cell battery. Battery charging and wired data transfers are accomplished via a Micro-USB 2.0 port. A dual-band (2.4GHz/5GHz) Qualcomm Wi-Fi adapter delivers two-stream 802.11n wireless networking. Bluetooth 4.0. mobile broadband support, in the form of either HSPA+ or LTE, will be offered as options. Dell expects the Venue 8 Pro to be available on October 18 and has priced the base model at $300.
Venue 11 Pro
The larger Venue 11 Pro must have an 11-inch touchscreen, right? Wrong! It's only 10.8 inches, but it delivers a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels, provides ten touch points, and can drive an external monitor via a mini-HDMI port or with Intel's wireless display technology.

6 Taboo Thoughts That Parents Have
Parents negative thoughts about their children need to be accepted and resolved.
Posted Jun 21, 2014
In the comfort of the therapist's office parents will sometimes feel safe enough to reveal their inner most unspoken thoughts about their children. Parents often experience a tremendous sense of shame and guilt associated with their negative thoughts. The risk of allowing these thoughts to emerge within themselves and be spoken to another person is enormous for the average parent and yet essential for a healthy and positive parent-child connection. Here are 6 taboo thoughts that parents have:
1. This is not the child I had hoped for and expected. Well intended parents can develop unrealistic expectations of a child long before the child's birth. These parents have spent years envisioning a certain kind of child and then when a real child arrives, it's difficult for these parents to adjust to the reality. These expectations range from having a healthy child to more defined desires such as expecting a child to appear a certain way, have a certain intelligence, and have specific talents in predefined interest areas, for example, "I know my son will be an athlete". When children turn out differently from what their parents expect, parents struggle to accept their feelings of disappointment. They deny their own feelings because of the shame their feelings evoke. In reality, accepting their feelings is much healthier and allows them to grieve the loss of the child they dreamed of and learn to accept and truly bond with the child they have.
2. Feeling jealous of their child. Parents with low self-esteem and unfulfilled childhood wishes can develop jealous feelings towards their own children. They struggle to accept and integrate these feelings of envy which often can be masked as competition, harsh discipline and criticism of their child that has what they wanted during their childhood.
3. Comparing siblings. Parents are notorious for comparing sibling children and deciding that one fails short of the other. When they do this they stereotype their children, failing to allow them to become themselves and instead typecasting them into certain roles that are most comfortable for the parents and unhealthy for the children.
4. Wanting a child of the opposite sex. Parents may have had their heart set on having a boy or a girl and instead they give birth to the opposite gender. When this occurs, grieving helps to resolve the disappointment and helps to allow the parent to bond with their child.
5. Favoring one child over another. Parents sometimes have a favorite child based on their own unhealthy needs and expectations. It's not healthy to love one child over another and most commonly this develops out of a parent's need to have one special child as their ally which allows them to feel safe.
6. Wishing negative thoughts on other children. When parents wish for bad things to happen to other children, whether it's missing a basket in a game of basketball or not getting a part in the school play; these negative thoughts occur because parents project their own insecurities on to their children. These parents feel that their child has to be more successful than any other child in order to feel safe and valued. When parents acknowledge their desire for their children to be "the best", they can assess their own unhealthy self-image and separate their needs for perfection and success from their child's needs.
Parents love their children and yet they sometimes confuse their child's needs with their own needs in order to fulfill unmet wishes in their lives. Parents can resolve their conflicts by addressing them head on. When parents are able to grieve and accept their disappointments and resolve their inner conflicts, they can build strong connections to their children. Parents who risk sharing their darkest thoughts and feelings are able to begin the process of becoming a whole and complete integrated self, whereby they can fully connect to themselves and subsequently their children.

ESO Housing Preview
Welcome to the housing preview page! You can find a walk-through for all the different homes in Elder Scrolls Online here. New homes will continuously be added so make sure to bookmark this page.
Small Homes & Apartments
Barbed Hook Private Room, 11,000 gold
Like every busy port, Skywatch has a seamy underside. A private room at the Barbed Hook offers easy access to the criminal classes—and a quick escape from the nearby docks.
Flaming Nix Deluxe Garret, 13,000 gold
Even if you don't personally have a taste for the famous fire-pit dancing at the Flaming Nix, you have to admit it adds a certain cachet to having a room there. Not to mention an unusual fragrance.
Sisters of the Sands Apartment, 12,000 gold
In Sentinel, the best way to hide out in plain sight is with a private room in the Sisters of the Sands, the town's largest inn. It also has the best food in the city, and is the place King Fahara'jad sends to for take-out.
Autumn's-Gate, 60,000 gold
In the heart of The Rift, just outside the lively, small town of Nimalten, you will find this sturdy wooden home, with a large hearth to keep you warm in the Skyrim winter, and a stone wall to keep out the trolls.
Black Vine Villa, 54,000 gold
Would you want to live in an old stone house just across a dark jungle stream from a haunted Ayleid ruin? Silly question—who wouldn't?
Captain Margaux's Place, 56,000 gold
The famous Breton merchant-explorer Captain Margaux hasn't been seen since her ship the Golden Spriggan sailed off over the horizon into the Sea of Pearls—which makes her house near the docks in Daggerfall available for you!
Cyrodilic Jungle House, 71,000 gold
An Imperial, of course, is at home anywhere in Tamriel. This compact house at the Baandari Trading Post in Malabal Tor is a bit of Cyrodiil in Valenwood, and just steps away from the fine food and drink at the Silver Moons Inn.
Hammerdeath Bungalow, 65,000 gold
"It may be small, but at least it's gloomy. And if you enjoy beating up on your friends, like I do, it's right next door to the arena!" —Goorguk gro-Murtag, Orcish Realtor
Humblemud, 40,000 gold
A mud house is a constant reminder of the impermanence of life, and that we are but standing waves in the river of existence. But one still wishes it to look nice and comfortable, and decorates accordingly. Of course.
Kragenhome, 69,000 gold
This residence might not be in Kragenmoor's best neighborhood, but if you're looking for classic Dunmeri architecture at an affordable price, this town house certainly fits the bill.
Moonmirth House, 50,000 gold
A small elevated house on an idyllic plantation in the mild and hospitable clime of Khenarthi's Roost? This one would find that sweet paradise!
Snugpod, 45,000 gold
A perfect graht-oak pod home, grown by a Home Singer from the very roots of Elden Root—compact, comfortable, and convenient to everything. Praise Z'en!
Twin Arches, 73,000 gold
It may be small but it's solid, and it keeps the sandstorms out. The scenery is magnificent, but if you're in the mood for civilization, it's right outside the south gate of Hallin's Stand.
Medium Homes
Bouldertree Refuge, 190,000 gold
When civilization grows too confining, it's a relief to be able to withdraw into a handsome home in the wilds—especially one with an imposing wall around it, to keep out beasts and bandits.
Cliffshade, 255,000 gold
Just outside the Aldmeri settlement of Marbruk, the forest is wide and open, the climate is mild, the setting idyllic: the elegant home of Cliffshade seems an abode blessed by the gods.
Domus Phrasticus, 295,000 gold
No one has seen Phrastus the Scholar since his ill-advised return to the Imperial City. He's probably fine—he must be!—but in the meantime, his walled town house in Elinhir is available on an indefinite basis.
Grymharth's Woe, 280,000 gold
Fine urban living in Windhelm is now available at this commodious town home, which features a lofty main floor, two fireplaces, and a second-floor balcony. Alas, that balcony lacks a railing, which is how Grymharth, after too much mead, came to woe.
House of the Silent Magnifico, 320,000 gold
After the death of his beloved daughter Haruzeh at the Running of the Dunerippers, the Magnifico Z'za retired to his house in Sentinel and never spoke again, spending his last days playing endless games of hammergammon with his trained monkey, Lizard.
Mournoth Keep, 325,000 gold
This fortified household is strong, intimidating, and remote—in short, everything an Orc holds dear. And if you get tired of the "remote" part, there's a convenient wayshrine just outside your gate!

Again, the above fees may or may not apply to your event, and there may be other fees not listed that will be added. Until a Facility Request Application is received, it is difficult to give an exact quote.

As the respiratory system of your home, the ducts circulate all the air in your home anytime the furnace or air conditioner is running.
That circulating air results in a slow build-up of contaminants in your ductwork. That contaminated air re-circulates through your home, in a never-ending cycle, and can cause allergies and even asthma. Only professional duct cleaning can remove this material and restore quality air to your home.

How long has it been since you had a dryer vent cleaning?
Cleaning your dryer vent exhaust duct is an important service. This is a service that is often overlooked and not doing it, can cause unwanted conditions such as: fire hazard,water damage, health risks, higher electrical costs and even damage to your clothes dryer.
When a dryer vent duct becomes clogged, you are more likely to get moisture in your system, which can lead to corrosion and water damage. We commonly retrieve 2-5 gallons of lint and 2-4 gallons of water from dryer ducts when we clean them.
Clogged dryer systems can overheat and are a potential fire hazard, especially if a flammable plastic connector hose from the dryer to the wall connector is being used
A clogged dryer vent (or duct) system means extra drying cycles to dry your clothes. This results in higher gas and electric bills
According to the US Consumer Products Safety Commission, restricted dryer vents cause reduced air flow and higher temperatures in dryers, adding to energy use with longer drying time.
Clothes dryers are one of the most expensive appliances in your home to operate. The longer it runs the more money it costs you
Cleaning Procedure:
- Mechanical brush attached to flexible cable through the duct system connector hose is cleaned out.
- Air pressure is blown through ducting to remove lint residue after brushing.
- Lint trap screen vacuum cleaned
- Exhaust pressure at outside vent is check after the system is brushed out.
We service the following:
• Commercial dryer facilities
• Town home
• Condominiums
• Apartments
• Duplexes
• Single- Family Homes
Birds find an easy way to build their nests inside exhaust vents, this creates a number of IAQ problems, increased energy consumption, and creates a potential fire hazard. Lint is the primary culprit for obstructing the air flow inside dryer vent, bird nests are often the prime problem. The warm air from the dryer creates a pleasant spot for a nest of birds, but this cozy hideout for small creatures is a dangerous situation for homeowners.

Funny, not many posts back is the look back on 2016, but already a year has passed.

Funny, not many posts back is the look back on 2016, but already a year has passed.
A lot happened in 2017. Here are some assorted photos from the year gone by. Thanks for all the fish!
I've been shooting the Stockholm Pride Parade every year (with one exception) since 2012, I think. To me, it's loads of fun, people are awesome and there's a great atmosphere. It's also one of the things where I can clearly see my own progress as a photographer. My gear has improved every year, and for every year I can clearly see my improvement.
All previous years I've felt hampered by gear compromises, but this year I went all-in, with two bodies, shooting both ultrawide and using my great 70-200 tele. It's the first time I've been able to do this, and having two bodies makes no compromises. I also invested in a very nice leather-strap system to allow me to comfortably haul around both bodies with lenses for several hours, and it didn't disappoint. The only frustration was that the lens-hood on my IRIX 15mm came off twice and it was only through the kindness of strangers I didn't lose it completely. Next year, it will be taped on. Apart from that, it was loads of fun.
These photos are unsorted. Also, there are some female nipples so if that offends you don't come crying to me.
This year when editing I decided to make the photos of "Marching for those who can't" a stark black-and-white edit, to highlight the seriousness of that section. That section of the parade is a reminder that around the world there are people who cannot live openly due to persecution and threat.
On our way home from Norway we decided to stop by a place I've read about online. It's the old wrecking yard of Båstnäs. It's located in Sweden close to the border of Norway and was originally run by two brothers. They collected numerous cars from the 1950s and on, and ran the whole dang thing as a scrap-yard. Post-war Norway had a lack of spare parts and easy money was to be made. The brothers grew old and the site started to deteriorate as they didn't reclaim parts from the cars. Both brothers have since died and the only memory of their business is the hundreds of old wrecks, now slowly being reclaimed by nature.
It's free to visit the site but you're expected to be respectful. This is after all private property, so don't go plucking parts off the cars. I personally feel the site should be treated as you would a cemetery. Watch, enjoy but don't mess with anything. This is a place of remembrance and reflection. Like elephant graveyards, these cars came here to die in peace/pieces.
This will be a two-part since it's just too dang much to fit into one post. Me and girlfriend went on a roadtrip to Norway. The plan was vague – basically end up in Bergen at some point and then make it home. How we got there was up in the air since we decided to take every day as it came. Thus, we made no bookings for lodging, no plans for driving each day. Just roadtrippin' it. I brought cameras and it was spectacular.
First leg of the journey went from our home in Södertälje to Oslo. Apart from a short stop to say hi to friends and stopping at KFC (one of only two KFC's in Sweden) to eat chicken, we motored to Oslo pretty much non-stop. We arrived at the hotel we had booked during the drive and were mostly too tired to take in Oslo except for a short walk around the blocks.
The next leg of the trip was from Oslo up along the E6, final goal was to be Ålesund but as usual nothing was decided. We passed Lillehammer, and since the E6 goes in some wildly scenic country, the drive was often interrupted in order to let us jump out of the car and shout "AMAZING!" at the scenery. What should've been a 6-7 hour drive quickly turned into a 9+ hour drive. We pulled into Vestnes for dinner and on the spot decided to make camp there rather than drive another hourplus to Ålesund, which would have compeltely drained our energy and mood. This was a smart move.
Next day we headed into Ålesund. First off to the Alnes-lighthouse. The lighthouse itself was interesting, but the drive out was even more so. Loads of tunnels literally going under the seabed between the island. Weather was gray but it was nice and warm and the scenery as usual was spectacular. After we got tired of hanging out in near the ocean, we drove back into Ålesund and walked around town for a while. When we felt satiated with the city, the car was pointed south. The final stop wasn't decided but around Geiranger we decided to find lodging. We rented a room from a local and enjoyed sleeping to the sound of Geirangers sound and numerous waterfalls.
When we awoke, we quickly loaded our gear into the car and took off south. The final stop was decided to be Bergen-ish, or somewhere around there. Energy was good and we got an early start, so most of the day was spent on the road. We made numerous stops, especially in the highlands to take in scenery, and had fun driving up and down the serpentine roads. Since our energy was good, we got all the way to Bergen where we arrived at a hotel we'd scouted during the trip down.
Next day we drove into Bergen proper and walked around the city. We were a bit overwhelmed by the noise and crowds, so we didn't spend more than a few hours in Bergen.
When we felt finished with Bergen, we loaded our car and headed south. The original plan was to return to Oslo and take in some sights, but we realized that cities wasn't really what we wanted. Museums and pavement didn't hold our interest, and instead we aimed for Drammen, a smaller city south of Oslo. We found art on walls there, and a very relaxing and cozy hotel room.
With Drammen done, we decided to head back home and set the GPS for Sweden…

New York, June 3, 2016: 47-year old Sikh man Davinder Singh went to the USA some 25 years ago and was living happily. But everything changed on June 2, 2016, when the news came that he was shot dead at his gas station in Newark, New Jersey.
The family of the victim Sikh man believes that the deceased fell prey to hate crime and was targeted due to his religion. But the problem is that the awareness in the American society is so low that post 9/11 several innocent Sikhs became a target of White supremacists who mistook them for Middle Easterners.
The current shooting has revived the memory of the murder of six innocent Sikhs at the Wisconsin Gurudwara of 2012 that outraged the minority community in the USA.
No one has been arrested for the murder of Davinder Singh till the writing of this report.
The incident happened at the Power Gas Station on West Market Street just before 4:30 p.m. Monday.
Arriving officers found 47-year-old Davinder Singh unresponsive at the scene with a gunshot wound to the chest, and he was rushed to University Hospital, where he was pronounced dead a short time later.
There were apparently no customers there at the time.
A neighbor heard the shot and ran outside to help.
"It happened so fast, I walked in my house and the gunshot I just heard. And I said no, that's firecrackers, and his brother came out, 'Somebody help me', screaming and stuff," said neighbor Mattie Griffis.
The Essex County Prosecutor's Officer and Newark Police Department are investigating the shooting.
Locals tell Eyewitness News that Singh was well-known in the area and was regarded as a hard-working individual.
People in the area fondly called the victim David and say he often had kind words and pleasant greetings.
Police sources say they have a strong lead on a suspect that they are following in connection with the incident.
There are cameras outside the gas station, which police are hoping will help lead them to the gunman.
The station was closed for the day, but several customers stopped by to express their shock and anger.

I'm sorry.

We do care. We are listening. And we will make it right.

My World Cup - Pat Jennings
26 June 2014|Tottenham Hotspur
Goalkeeping legend Pat Jennings speaks about his memories of the World Cup as this year's tournament enters the knockout stages in Brazil.
What was the first World Cup you can recall watching?
I can just about remember watching the 1958 tournament on TV back home in Northern Ireland. That was the year all four British sides reached the finals.
Who were the stars you remember from that tournament?
From Northern Ireland's point of view, it was the likes of centre forward Peter McParland and goalkeeper Harry Gregg. Peter was a fellow Newry man, he lived in the same street as me and scored five goals for his country at the World Cup, against Argentina, West Germany and Czechoslovakia. Harry was voted as the top goalkeeper at the tournament and he would be the man I replaced when I came into the side a few years later. There was also a young Brazilian called Pele who wasn't bad!
Have you ever been to a World Cup match as a supporter?
Not exactly as a supporter but I was fortunate to go to the semi-final and final in 1966. In those days, if we wanted to see any international, Bill Nick would sort tickets for us as he saw it as a learning curve, so I went to those two games. At Spurs, we'd actually played against the Mexico team in the Azteca Stadium on my 21st birthday, a week before they flew out to England! The heat was unbearable and the late Keith Weller scored the only goal of the game. England then beat them a few weeks later at Wembley in their group match. That was a great England side, every one of them was a top footballer.
If there was one World Cup game you could have gone to, which one would it be and why?
Well it would have been the '66 Final, so I was delighted to have been lucky enough to be there that day. The atmosphere inside the stadium was just fantastic and what an incredible game it was. End to end, a real rollercoaster match and what a way to win it in with Geoff Hurst's hat-trick.
Have you ever represented your country at the World Cup before?
Yes, in 1982 and 1986. As a nation, Northern Ireland had been trying to qualify again since 1958 and I was starting to think it wouldn't happen for us. Then we managed to reach World Cup 1982 in Spain and that was fantastic. But I picked up an injury and was a doubt right up until the start of the tournament, but made it in the end. We drew 0-0 against Yugoslavia, then faced Honduras who had been written off by our press. But they gave us the hardest game and we drew again, 1-1. So we needed to beat the hosts Spain to reach the second round and the atmosphere was incredible in Valencia that night. We scored through Gerry Armstrong early in the second half and then had Mal Donaghy sent off, so we were really hanging on. But we got the win... an amazing result. We lost to France eventually, but four years later we qualified again in Mexico. And incredibly, we played Brazil on my 41st birthday this time! We lost 3-0, Josimar scored that screamer, but if you had to pick a team to go out to, it would be Brazil.
What are the best memories you have of your own country at the World Cup?
Beating Spain in 1982, without a doubt. I think a lot of the squad were already packed up ready to go home before the game because it was such a big task for us. They were the hosts, we were down to 10 men, but we got the win we needed. It was one of the greatest nights of my career.
What has been the best match you've ever seen at the Finals?
The 1966 Final was certainly memorable but there have been some great finals down the years. Dino Zoff lifting the trophy after Italy beat West Germany in 1982 and then of course there was that fantastic final in 1970 when Brazil, with the likes of Pele, Rivelino and Carlos Alberto, beat Italy playing some of the best football I've ever seen.
And what has been the best goal?
Well Josimar's goal past me wasn't bad, was it? If had wings I wouldn't have saved that one! Bobby Charlton's strike against Mexico in 1966 was a fantastic strike too. For me though, I'd prefer to pick a save and of course there has been none better than Gordon Banks' save from Pele in 1970... as good as it gets.
Who do you think will have a big impact at the 2014 World Cup?
The usual suspects of course, Germany, Brazil, Argentina.
Which two teams do you fancy to make it to the final, and who will lift the trophy?
I'll go for Germany and one other... but it really could be any two from about eight teams.

Health Benefits of Tuna
Blood Pressure
The combination of omega-3 fatty acids, which are anti -inflammatory and can help reduce blood pressure, along with potassium, a vasodilator, make tuna fish very good for lowering blood pressure.
Growth & Development
When people give up red meat or become a vegetarian, one of the most dangerous dietary challenges is acquiring an appropriate amount of protein. Luckily, for pescatarians, tuna fish is packed with protein.
Heart Health
In terms of reducing coronary heart disease, tuna fish has very high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which help to reduce omega-6 fatty acids and cholesterol in the arteries and blood vessels.
Fight Depression
Intake of fish is also a good remedy for depression. Findings of a research study suggests that fish consumption may be beneficial for women's mental health and reduce risk of developing depression in women.

Primary Flow Signal, US
Keywords: open channel measurement, Parshall flumes, water conservation
Summary:Open channel flow measurement is important due to decreasing water supplies and growing concerns regarding municipal water measurement. These flows need to be metered to minimize the margin of error. The Parshall flume in some cases is the standard measurement device for open channels but a true standard device is one which has been accurately calibrated, correctly installed, and sufficiently maintained to fulfill the original requirements. Primary Flow Signal developed the PFS-HPF which is tested by a third party and has a certifiable discharge coefficient. The precision of the PFS-HPF is +/-2.0% of max rate and the primary device can be used with of secondary read-out devices. Unlike the traditional Parshall flume, the PFS-HPF is designed so that the appropriate placement of secondary measurement devices is recognizable and verifiable. Accurate flow measurement for open channels is important. With laboratory flow calibration, HPF accuracy is +/-1.0% of max rate with a much lower headloss compared to the Parshall flume. Due to the reduction of available water, combined with the importance for metering the fluid flow of sewage and other open channel flows, accuracy must be taken into consideration to select a solution.

Strong competition is good for the consumer. In the heavily fought browser wars, Firefox 4 has been closing the gap with current industry leader Internet Explorer, partially since the new and improved IE 9 is incompatible with Windows XP while Firefox 4 will run on almost all platforms. Also in the race for browser supremacy is Google, which recently released version 12 of its popular Chrome browser. Chrome has developed a large and loyal following, and many have sworn off (and swear at) Internet Explorer, and to a lesser extent, Firefox.
The news has been dominated by stories about the dangers of the Internet. Just in recent days, we have heard of major banks losing the personal information of hundreds of thousands of account holders, a congressman's indiscretions on a social networking Web site, hackers accessing thousands of accounts at a major retailer, and many other mass data breaches that may result in wholesale identity theft.
Sometimes, despite our best efforts, it seems impossible to remove the spyware and other malware from our computers. Despite their efficacy, there are just some times that the traditional and proven malware killers will not be able to neutralize the malware on our computers. While some of the so-called "experts" simply give up and reformat the hard drive, resulting in the loss of any programs and files on the computer (unless properly backed up), this is not an appropriate step in trying to restore the computer.
Q. I have lived with my boyfriend for almost seven years. People have told us that if we live together for more than seven years we will have a common law marriage. We don't want to be married. Should we just live apart for a few weeks and then move back in together? How long do we have to live apart?
If you have downloaded many documents from the Internet, you have likely come across many that are in PDF format. Portable Document Format (PDF) has been around for almost 20 years, and has become the de facto standard document format that embeds text, fonts and graphics into the document, such that it will appear the same regardless of the operating system on the computer.
Saying it would never happen to me, I have found lately that it has. I am turning into my mother, at least when it comes to quotes, quips and proverbs. For years, I remember both my natural mother and my grandmother in whose home I lived the early years of my life having a saying that just popped out of their mouths when it seemed to be needed — and sometimes when I did not think it was. I vowed I would never burden my own children, their contemporaries, cousins, aunts, uncles and friends with all those old wives tales and quotes. I just can't seem to help it.
While watching a television newscast with my husband in our home one night recently, I heard the phrase "the cost of freedom" used four times in the one piece. That repetition started a train of thought in my mind that I have been dealing with off and on since hearing the writer of the script's interruption. What do we mean when we say "the cost of freedom?"
Sometime ago, I wrote about several free utilities available from Google. Google has continued to update and enhance its offerings in its attempt to maintain its dominant position on the Internet by offering dozens of free utilities for PCs, MACs, and Linux computers. The comprehensive listing of Google offerings is online at www.google.com/intl/en/options.

A regular reader of this column suggested that I write about a free service that can automatically install and update the most popular freeware programs available. She recommended Ninite, but I was also familiar with a competitive service from AllMyApps. While both have comprehensive listings of free software, AllMyApps also includes links to some commercial software applications, so I would have to give the edge to Ninite when it comes to the mass installation of free software.

c# asp.net - DocuSign add CC users and update document status after signing
Budget $30-250 USD
We have a asp.net C# site that sends out e-signatures through DocuSign. We need to make two changes to this process:
1. Add 'CC' users to e-signatures
- our form has a place to add CC users to each e-sign request, each of these users should get a CC email during the e-sign process. They are not required to sign anything, they just get the update emails from DocuSign as users sign the document.
- There are two fields for CC users:
> Assigned Originator/OSA/OA - this field is auto populated
> Additional CC'd - this is a comma separated list of emails that will be added to the CC list
2. Update the status of a document after it has been E-Signed
- our previous system would update a document after it had been e-signed online, we already have a function 'UpdateAllPendingEsignStatus' which does this, but now we are converting our process to use DocuSign (previously Sertifi) so this function needs to be updated.
- Check the file '[login to view URL]' to find the previous function and see how it worked.
- Documents are sent in 'envelopes' but we want the function to work 'per document.' The function should update the status of each document in an 'envelope' regardless of the status of the entire envelope.

WBA 0-1 Spurs - report from The Hawthorns...
Gareth Bale's 11th Premier League goal of the season was enough to give us all three points against the 10 men of West Bromwich Albion in a competitive game at The Hawthorns on Sunday.
The Welsh flyer produced another stunning goal with his trusted left-foot to settle the outcome of the match and keep us in fourth place, closing the gap to just one point from Chelsea in third.
Bale struck in the 67th minute, receiving Lewis Holtby's pass before skipping past James Morrison and rifling a 20-yard drive beyond Ben Foster to the sheer delight of the Spurs contingent right behind the flight of the Welshman's shot.
Andre kept faith with the starting XI that drew 1-1 at Norwich City in midweek, with only one change being made to the matchday squad – Tom Huddlestone replacing Steven Caulker among the substitutes, new signing Holtby once again starting on the bench. Aaron Lennon's inclusion marked his 300th appearance in our colours in all competitions.
It was the home side who started the brightest and twice went close early on. Just four minutes in Romelu Lukaku beat Michael Dawson in the air to flick the ball into the path of Shane Long who ran through on goal, Hugo Lloris was quick off his line to push him wide and the Baggies striker could only run the ball out of play. And three minutes later our French goalkeeper denied Lukaku with a save low down to his left.
In a lively opening, our first chance fell just after when Lennon beat Jonas Olsson down the right and clipped a cross to the far post where Clint Dempsey's downward header bounced just wide of the upright.
In a slight change of formation, Bale was playing through the middle with Dempsey on the left and it the Welshman was causing the hosts plenty of problems. After quarter of an hour, he produced a typical burst past three defenders and fired a cross which Gareth McAuley headed clear and he repeated the feat on the stroke of half-time, this time cutting back on to his left foot to curl a 25-yard effort which Foster had to tip over. In between those two chances, he also drilled a fierce 34th-minute free-kick which wasn't too far away from the top left-hand corner of Foster's net.
Albion certainly posed a threat of their own though and went close on 21 minutes when a slide-rule pass from Graham Dorrans found Long in space in the right channel inside the box but his shot was well saved by Lloris, while Lukaku found himself through again from Olsson's long ball just before the interval but, under pressure from the back-tracking Dembele, fired high and wide.
We needed to reshuffle after 39 minutes when Jermain Defoe limped off to be replaced by Holtby, Bale shifting back to the left as Dempsey returned to the central striking role.
Just two minutes into the second half and Albion needed a reshuffle of their own when Goran Popov was given a straight red card by referee Mark Clattenburg, after seemingly spitting at Kyle Walker as the two exchanged words following a tussle for the ball near the goalline. As a result Albion took off the threat of Lukaku and replaced him with defender Liam Ridgewell.
That changed the emphasis of the game as we took control and started to dominate possession and chances. On 54 minutes, Benoit Assou-Ekotto's pass inside to Holtby saw the German's left foot drive saved by Foster to his right, Assou-Ekotto himself volleyed a shot over, Walker's right foot volley drifted wide and Jan Vertonghen's shot was deflected wide by McAuley.
And then came the much-needed breakthrough as Bale did what Bale does so well, producing that match-winning moment of magic!
The goal enabled us to dictate play against the 10-men of West Brom and we did just that, keeping possession and carving out more chances. One of those fell to Dempsey on 74 minutes, released by Dembele's pass but Foster tipped the USA striker's effort wide.
The home side were still in the game at 1-0 though and Lloris was called into action three minutes later, comfortably saving Long's 18-yard drive.
Five minutes from time, Holtby's crossfield pass found Lennon who cut in onto his right foot but McAuley blocked his shot, while Bale headed Gylfi Sigurdsson's corner over, the Icelandic midfielder having just replaced Lennon.
In the end though, one goal was enough.
West Brom (4-4-2): Foster; Reid, McAuley, Olsson, Popov; Dorrans (Rosenberg, 81), Yacob (Fortune, 81), Morrison, Brunt; Long, Lukaku (Ridgewell, 51). Unused subs: Myhill, Thomas, Jones, Tamas.

Doctoral study is a demanding process and comes with no guarantees of how long students will take to complete their dissertations. The time that it takes to earn undergraduate and master's degrees are far less variable than the time it takes to earn a doctorate. The median number of years to earn a doctorate is 5.7, ranging from 5.2 years to earn a doctorate in engineering to 6.9 years to earn a doctorate in humanities. However, students can keep several strategies in mind when trying to shorten their time to a doctoral degree.
Possible Paths
Two main avenues exist for students pursuing a doctorate. For both, students begin by completing a bachelor's degree, usually in a discipline related to their intended graduate field of study. In 2015, bachelor's degree earners from four-year public institutions took an average of 5.6 years to earn a bachelor's degree, with 37.5 percent of students finishing within four years, according to the National Student Clearinghouse. Students with a bachelor's degree can either apply to master's programs or directly to doctoral programs. Those who earn a master's degree before entering a doctoral program take one to three years to finish their master's, but can usually transfer about a year's worth of course credits to their doctoral study.
Time to Doctoral Degree
The National Science Foundation tracks how long students take to complete their doctoral programs. According to NSF, after students have entered their doctoral program, their median times to get a doctoral degree vary dramatically by field. The shortest times to degree are in the physical sciences, engineering and life sciences, which hover around 5.5 years of study. Students in the social sciences add about half a year to that time, at 6.0 years. The median time to degree in education is also 6.0 years, while doctoral students in the humanities have the longest median duration at 6.9 years.
Complicating Factors
The median times to degree do not reflect doctoral programs' plan for students. Usually, those who take more than five years in the sciences and seven years in the humanities and social sciences have run into difficulty with their research or in their personal lives. Possible complications in research include a series of failed experiments, the unwitting replication of existing research, difficulty synthesizing existing information in a new way or making new observations about primary sources, lack of funding that necessitates outside employment and failure to pass preliminary or qualifying examinations.
Streamlining Degree Progress
To stay within target times to degree and maintain funding throughout doctoral study, students use a variety of tactics. Some are able to use work that they did for their undergraduate or master's degrees as a basis for dissertation chapters, or they publish revised versions of that research during their first or second years of doctoral study to relieve the pressure to publish later in the program. Similarly, some students focus their research during the coursework phase to fit with their intended dissertation topic. Students who enter programs knowing which faculty member they'd like to work with generally finish more quickly as well, since they can begin conceptualizing their research project immediately upon entering the program or even before.

text: On Wednesday evening, a storm blew through Luck and unfortunately, we lost some trees. My last count was 43. We are still assessing the tree damage as there may be a few more that need to come down. Clean up began on Thursday and we were able to once again get some "Senior Muscle" to help. We rented a wood chipper and have begun the brush removal. There is still some scattered branches that will be eventually removed. The mess delayed mowing for the weekend so the fairways and roughs will be a tad long. The good news is that no playing surfaces were hit. By this time next week, we should be all done cleaning up and beginning to prepare for the onslaught of winter.

Their love life is chaotic, because they themselves often choose the wrong partners who are not able to get into a relationship. When they are in a relationship, they are volatile and constantly wonder if their partner is the right choice. Furthermore, members of this sign are very susceptible to flirting.
These people are often willing to bet all or nothing. In their relationships they become jealous and possessive. In addition, they are very secretive, so their partner always gets the feeling that they are hiding something from them and are not completely sincere. This sign is unforgiving, and petty quarrels turn into eternal disputes filled with accusations and attempts at emotional manipulation.
Image Source: slideshare
They are often insensitive and irresponsible, so they can hurt their partner's feelings without realizing it. They live for the thrill, and this is the reason why they get bored really quickly. Their partners feel pressured to constantly go full speed and create interesting stories and situations.
They behave distantly until they fully trust their partner. Quite often, however, this is a very lengthy process, which leads to the alienation of the partner. In any case it is not easy to live with a melancholy person who takes care of every little thing, and their pessimism is transmitted to everyone around them. Members of this sign lack spontaneity, they are very burdened with work, so living with them becomes monotonous.….READ MORE ON THE NEXT PAGE
