So last week I mentioned that when we move to Thailand, I will be working with an advocacy group. Today I want to tell you a little bit about them. The SOLD Project is a group of American twenty-somethings who created a documentary exposing the massive sex industry in Thailand, and how little girls and boys are abducted and sold into prostitution. They thought they were just doing a hard-core expose. Little did they know their hearts would tug and break in the meantime! Some of the children end up in brothels because they were trying to find jobs at restaurants in Bangkok to help support their families. Others are trafficked in from oppressed ethnic groups in neighboring countries like Burma.
The documentary is intense and emotional – once you hear the actual stories of these children, it's impossible to turn a blind eye to the issue. When the documentary was released, people began asking how they could help…and thus a non-profit was born.
The SOLD Project starts with prevention and their aim is four-fold: they hope to 1) provide scholarships to children through individual donors like you and me so that at-risk children don't have to pay for their education, thus easing the grip of extreme poverty, 2) provide mentors for each child with a scholarship, 3) build a resource center for the community, and 4) develop awareness programs in schools to help children learn how to protect themselves.
While I am there, I will be doing two things. I plan on volunteering time to tutor and mentor children at the resource center as well as lead weekly rotating seminars open to the community, focusing on various professional skills: computer literacy, basic accounting, college application/grant writing, etc. But my little baby is a project called "Operation Shackle Free". I'm setting up an email exchange program between the sponsored children in Thailand and students in the US and other western nations. The goal is to give the kids in Thailand a chance to practice their English literacy skills – giving them an edge in the job market – and to motivate them to dream of a better life, one that is far away from the brothels. For the students here in the US, the goal is to raise global awareness and cultural sensitivity, and show them how one little action, as simple as sending emails has global implications not only in the lives of their Thai counterparts but also for GDP, national health – even reducing terrorism.
A lot of this will be happening at the resource center The SOLD Project is trying to build. Check out how it's coming along! And feel free to browse The SOLD Project website to find out more about what they do. You can even host your own documentary viewing party!
The resource center is well under way, BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP! We need help raising funds for supplies like children's books (we {heart} the Seuss), desks, stationary, computers, a security system (so no A-hole jacks our computers), and staff support (because, yo, we'll need to eat too).
If you look to the top right of this page you'll see a link to donate. I've created a profile through CrowdRise and I've set an {albeit ambitious} goal of raising $1,000 by June 1 to go to building and running this resource center. Do you think we can do it? I think we can do it!
Every dollar helps! I think it's easy to forget these days just how far a dollar can go. But for these girls and boys in Thailand, $1 is all it takes to keep one kid in school one day more.
If there's anyone who can be counted on for love and support, I know it's the blogging community. Bloggers and blog readers alike, you all are such amazing people with such large, warm hearts. Every day, there's an unbelievable outpouring of affection, advice, and well-wishes to friends in need. So I'm just asking for a little help for some very little friends in need: the young girls and boys in Thailand who want nothing more than to just be home with their families, go to school, and live a decent life. Let's keep them home with their families and away from pervy men and brothel gangstas!

Re the Aug. 1 letter Common ground: The writer makes the common mistake of assuming that rejecting religion equates to atheism. The belief in a creator God does not necessarily categorize a person as a member of an organized religion.
I do not belong to a church or engage in religious rituals, yet believe in a universal, unfathomable entity — God if one prefers — that is the source of all creation. Indeed, organized religions have a dismal record of excess and abuse inconsistent with the core teachings of their canons. So, yes, you can reject religion as a human-created system of mass control and still believe in God.
The writer also refers to herself as "a proud atheist," something difficult to understand, as atheism is a pessimistic doctrine based on assumptions just as difficult to prove as those underlying religion.

These small initiatives are means to aware farmers and relevant stakeholders. But they are not sufficient to build resilience of the farming system. Until and unless we identify the measures to qualify resilience, building resilience is questionable.

IFAD social reporting blog: Day Three - Building Resilience to Climate Change and Managing Disaster Risks through Sustainable Agriculture
Climate change, food insecurity and environmental disasters are inextricably linked to one another and strengthening resilience to climate change for farmers and communities is key to sustainability. This was the main message at today's COP20 side event on Building Resilience to Climate Change and Managing Disaster Risks through Sustainable Agriculture.
This event was co-organized by the World Farmers' Organisation (WFO), Caritas International, the International Federation for Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD).
Farmers and experts from international organizations and civil society, who directly experience the need for climate-resilient agriculture and risk management, presented best practices and proposed solutions to reduce climate change impacts on agriculture and food security.
"Now that the world has realized the importance of climate change and has developed an increased awareness towards this issue, we must understand where farmers stand, what their role is and how can we help them," said moderator Adriana Opromolla, from Caritas International.
Mr Charles Ogang, President of the WFO in Kampala, said that Uganda has already felt the impacts of climate change in the form of different hazards that are effecting the entire value chain. In response the organization supports and promotes activities such as: fasting mature varieties; avoiding bush burning; managing water on a small scale; supplementing pastures; conserving agriculture; supporting crop insurance; promoting post-harvest management and introducing silo systems.
The Latin American Office Co-ordinator for IFOAM, Ms Patricia Flores Escudero, stated that: "It is time for the voices of farmers to be heard". The solution proposed by IFOAM was based on organic agriculture. She proposed a cleaner production system that does not harm the environment and combines traditional and modern technologies to improve the livelihood of those who participate in it. Organic agriculture promotes the health of soils, plants, animals and human beings and it has to be managed in a responsible manner in order to safeguard the health of future generations.
Mr Jorge Lafosse, National Director of Caritas in Peru, believes that: "Adaptation is not a technical theme, it is a moral and ethical imperative". Climate change effects are increasing in Peru with increased incidence of floods, droughts, diseases such as malaria and dengue, pests in agriculture and difficulty in water management because of the radical change in rain dynamics. "An immediate response to climate change problems is needed, in order to guarantee food security to farmers".
The National Coordinator for Caritas in Brazil, Ms Jaime Conrado Oliveira, talked about the long experience that Caritas Brazil has with smallholder agriculture in the semi-arid regions of Brazil, where livelihoods are affected by climate change on an area of 980,000 Km2. Their experience has been disseminated through trainings targeted in particular to youth. "Technology needs to be accompanied by capacity building activities and sensitisation, that give information about the ecological specificities of the area and how these can be addressed".
IFAD also believes that smallholders play an important role in the solution to climate change. Through its Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Programme (ASAP), the world's largest climate change adaptation programme, IFAD channels more than US$350 million to at least 8 million smallholder farmers. "Smallholders are our clients and we work to build their resilience to climate-related shocks and stresses" said Ms Estibalitz Morrás Dimas, Portfolio Officer from IFAD's Environment and Climate division. "Our objectives are to encourage better analysis of the climate risk and promote new technologies and new partnerships, in order to achieve development while preserving biological diversity".
Many interventions from the floor followed the presentations, leaving space to further discussions on important issues, such as: What is the definition of a climate smart agriculture? Are GMO seeds really climate smart? Where is the place of livestock when disasters struck? Are social changes like migration receiving enough attention?1 Responses to Day Three - Building Resilience to Climate Change and Managing Disaster Risks through Sustainable Agriculture

Never plug it into a household electrical outlet or any other house wiring, The Washington (DC) Water Power Co. says. The only safe method is to plug electrical appliances directly into the portable generator. And since its exhaust can be deadly, proper ventilation is essential.

Recovery of sunken rig begins
The Coast Guard said yesterday that Marine Safety Unit Galveston personnel continue to work closely with representatives from Ensco International to recover the submerged Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit ENSCO-74.
ENSCO-74 is submerged approximately 24 feet below the surface of the water, 70 miles southeast of Galveston Island. The ENSCO-74 is an independent leg, jack-up that was displaced from South Marsh Island (SM 149) off the coast of Louisiana during Hurricane Ike.
A Coast Guard senior marine inspector onboard the motor vessel Northern Canyon discovered the MODU while investigating the cause of the damage to the tank ship SKS Satilla.
No pollution has been observed in the vicinity of the submerged MODU.
Watchstanders at Coast Guard Vessel Traffic Service Houston-Galveston are issuing a broadcast notice to mariners hourly. The tug boat Crosby Eagle remains on location and the motor vessel Inez McCall is on-scene conducting a sonar survey in the vicinity of the ENSCO in preparation for salvage operations.
Coast Guard personnel are working closely with ENSCO representatives, the Texas General Land Office, the U.S. Mineral Management Service and NOAA to mitigate any hazards to navigation and potential threats to the environment.

Of course. You can freeze our meals if you do not expect to eat them in the first seven days, but fresh just tastes better.
We highly recommend enjoying your meals fresh until the expiration date on the container. If you must freeze a meal, be judicious about which one(s) you choose to freeze. Uncooked greens like salads should not be frozen, and should be eaten earlier for peak deliciousness. Some vegetables might already be cooked, and thawing may affect texture. Soggy vegetables are not happy vegetables. ;-)

June 1
The team has announced that center fielder Juan Lagares is heading to NYC for an MRI on Monday morning. After testing his rib cage injury before the game today, Lagares was inserted in the starting lineup.
However late in the game he felt it tighten up running the bases on Sunday, and he was replaced by Lucas Duda who ended up hitting the game winning home run for the Mets.
Matt den Dekker who was optioned to Vegas before the game is staying in town, writes Adam Rubin. He can only officially return though if Lagares goes to DL.
Hopefully, Lagares is okay and this is not something serious.
May 31
The Mets announced that center fielder Juan Lagares has been scratched from today's lineup due to a right rib cage spasm.
Lagares said that it first flared up last night, but he aggravated it today swinging during batting practice.
Chris Young, who is batting .202 with a .289 on-base will start in center field instead this afternoon and bat leadoff.
I hope this is minor. Real minor…
We'll have more on this as it develops…

Symantec Corp., the maker of computer anti-virus products, agreed Monday to buy Altiris Inc. for about $1.03 billion to gain programs that track corporate software use.
Altiris products help clients track, install and maintain their software on desktops, laptops, servers and hand-held devices. Symantec Chief Executive John Thompson is expanding the company's product line after reporting slowing sales of storage software sold to large customers last quarter.
"It's a far less-mature market and thus offers much more potential for growth," Morgan Keegan analyst Brian Freed said. "They're making their offering broader."
Altiris shareholders will receive $33 a share in cash, Cupertino, Calif.-based Symantec said. That's 22% more than Altiris' closing price of $27.14 on Friday. The purchase price includes about $200 million Altiris has on hand in cash and short-term investments.

President Obama's use of drones to kill people, including Americans, in other countries is at a minimum a failure of his often-repeated but seldom-honored commitment to government transparency. But in recent weeks, from Capitol Hill to the United Nations, drones have been in the spotlight. And while the administration would prefer to continue making subjective decisions about their use without rules or oversight, the curtain, having been pulled back, will be difficult to close.
Polls show Americans overwhelmingly support precision strikes by unmanned drones because they take out terrorists without endangering Americans' lives. Drones clearly have a place in our military strategy. But neither the president nor the CIA should be able to kill anyone anywhere without some level of accountability to Congress or the judicial system.
Then there's the do-unto-others problem. At present, the United States, United Kingdom and Israel are the only nations known to use armed drones. If it's all right for us and our allies to use them against suspected enemies in, say, Pakistan, what if Pakistan identifies an enemy in Washington and dispatches a drone to whack him? Is that okay too? This is one of the questions a United Nations inquiry will consider.
John Brennan, the president's nominee to head the CIA, defended the president's policy Thursday during a politically charged Senate confirmation hearing. He insisted that no legislation is needed to govern drones, but he was wrong. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee, should insist on establishing rules of engagement.
This is an emerging field of technological warfare, and in Silicon Valley, we know that every technology can be used for good or evil. The Obama administration is taking a Wild West approach to drone use when a careful, ethical examination is in order.
Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former commander of coalition forces in Afghanistan, is thoughtful on the topic: "What scares me about drone strikes," he told a reporter, " is how they are perceived around the world."
Obama has authorized five times as many drone attacks as President George W. Bush. The United Nations is looking at the increase and at reports of "disproportionate civilian casualties." The Bureau of Investigative Journalism estimates drones have killed between 474 and 884 civilians since 2004, including 176 children.
The leader of the U.N. probe, prominent British lawyer Ben Emmerson, says most international lawyers outside the United States reject Obama's contention that he has the right to use drones at will against perceived enemies. Pakistan's ambassador to the United States, Sherry Rehman, told the Washington Post last week that CIA drone strikes in Pakistan are "a clear violation of our sovereignty and a violation of international law." She denounced implications that her country tacitly approves of them.
NBC News obtained a copy of the Department of Justice white paper outlining the U.S. criteria for a lethal drone attack against an American citizen. The person can be killed if he poses an imminent threat, but "imminent" is not defined; if capture is considered infeasible, and if the strike is conducted "according to the laws of war governing use of force." An attack can be carried out in a foreign nation without its consent if there is evidence that the nation is unwilling or unable to cooperate. In other words, anything goes. Yet the paper is silent on how the United States should react if another country launches a drone attack here.
Ever since the Sept. 11 attacks by Osama bin Laden, President Bush and then Obama have taken extraordinary steps to prevent further terrorist attacks on U.S. soil. In trade, Americans so far have been willing to compromise their values and privacy protections.
But drones take us into new territory. The rules we live by now, or lack of them, will not be tenable when others employ drones against us.
The president should work with Congress on a moral and internationally defensible policy.

8. Present Day Models
It wasn't until 1996 that Line 6 launched the world's first digital modelling guitar amplifier, the 'AxSys 212', and only a year later they released the now famous kidney bean-shaped desktop 'POD'. Not only did these products introduce the world to amp modelling, but they also included a range of effects to choose from. Since the original POD, Line 6 has released a full range of award-winning amp modelling products such as the POD 2, POD Pro (rack-mount), POD XT and Bass POD, along with several more standalone amps and stomp boxes.
Other companies were soon to follow such as Johnson with their desktop J-Station and more recently their Millennium series Tube Integrated Modelling Amplifiers. The likes of Behringer brought Amp Modelling to the masses by releasing the hugely affordable V-Amp and then went on to give us the V-Amp Two and the V-Amp Pro as well as numerous modelling amplifiers, whilst companies such as DigiTech, Roland/Boss, Korg, Yamaha, and Zoom to name a few have all produced amps or effects units that feature amp modelling technology. Even legendary amp manufacturers such as Fender, Crate and Mesa Boogie have now 'seen the light', and feature amp modelling products in their range.

King College recently honored Roane County students in traditional and professional studies undergraduate programs who received academic honors for fall semester.
Named to the president's list were Robert Ray Kring of Harriman; Michael Scott Bandy, Deepa Cecilia Garren and Eden Buchanan Sherrod of Kingston; Hannah Elyse Hester and Krista Susanne Whaley of Oliver Springs; and Jerry Michele Crowe and Jessica Dawn Golliher of Rockwood.
Many of you know Wayne Pugh or Rockwood. I consider him a friend — I hope he feels the same way about me.
Wayne and I have a lot in common, including the love of railroads and one very big storm.
While many in East Tennessee consider the March 1993 blizzard the worst winter storm they ever saw, for me and Wayne, a January 1978 storm gets top billing.
Wayne, who was with L&N Railroad at the time, shared his memories with me recently.
Altrusa International Inc. of Oak Ridge is offering scholarships of up to $1,000 to deserving Roane County women to support their pursuit of education and/or training.
The scholarships honor Sarah Ketron and Pat Rush, two former Altrusa presidents and civic leaders.
Altrusans seek to encourage and support women who are striving to complete their education, search for jobs and become financially independent.
William C. Carothers of Kingston and Rebekah L. Loden of Rockwood are among students earning dean's list achievement at East Tennessee State University's Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy for fall session.
Students who qualified for the dean's list were enrolled in no fewer than 12 credit hours and achieved a semester grade-point average of 3.5 or above on a 4.0 scale, with no grade lower than a B-minus.
ETSU is in Johnson City.
The 2013 tennis season started Tuesday with county rivals Harriman and Rockwood splitting their match at Roane State.
Harriman's boys opened their season with a 6-3 victory while the Lady Tigers salvaged the split with a 7-2 victory.
If Tuesday's season opener is any indicator then the Oliver Springs softball team could be on their way to a good season, as Matt Headden's squad downed Rockwood, 9-1, at the Mike "Brillo" Miller Sports Complex in Rockwood.
Rockwood Tiger football is all about being physical, and senior FB/LB Clay Cisson fits that description to a tee.
This past season, it was Cisson that gave John Webb's squad that hard-nosed bruiser at fullback and linebacker. Now Cisson will be taking his physical style of play to Lebanon, Tenn. to play for Cumberland University.
The Kingston Yellow Jackets and Lady Jackets played their season opening games on Tuesday.
The Jackets took one on the chin, losing 7-0 to Sequoyah. The Lady Jackets, on the other hand, played a good game overall, coming away with a 7-6 win against Alcoa.
Medic Regional Blood Center has a need for all blood types, particularly O-negative.

"This film is above all about my mother, my mother who is no longer with us. About this woman who arrived in Belgium in 1938 , fleeing Poland, the pogroms and the violence. This woman who is only ever seen inside her apartment. An apartment in Brussels. A film about a world in motion that my mother does not see."

Squatty Potty saw what we did for Poo Pourri and figured if anyone can make it okay to talk about the colon it was Harmon Brothers:
Harmon Brothers designed the Purple brand and launched the campaign that is turning the $18B mattress industry on its head:
Camp Chef needed a unique angle to release their Woodwind Grill into a quickly growing space. Harmon Brothers didn't stop there:
Outperformed any political campaign video ever: including anything by Trump, Clinton, Bernie, or Obama
Created an iconic character and family situation that resonated with millions of women across the country, driving brand recognition and doubling sales.
PooPourri came to Harmon Brothers with the objective of turning a poo product into a dinner-table conversation across America:
Neal and Jeff Harmon co-founded Orabrush with Dr. Bob Wagstaff. This is the campaign that started it all:
Studio C came to Harmon Brothers seeking new ways to engage and expand their audience. We proposed a never-been-done-before concept: broadcast the taping of their sketches LIVE on YouTube.
We were given the task of bringing together some of the biggest names on YouTube to break a Guinness World Record:

This recipe takes the classic ingredients for mushroom stroganoff and gives them an exciting twist to create a tasty midweek main. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan set over a medium high heat. Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for 4-5 minutes. Stir in the thyme and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Season well. Meanwhile, put the water in a pan and bring to the boil. Gradually pour in the polenta, stirring constantly for 5 minutes, or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Stir in the butter, most of the cheese and some seasoning. To serve, divide the polenta between 2 plates and top with the mushrooms. Scatter over the remaining cheese and parsley.

4 Adorable reasons why B1A4's Jung Jin Young is excited for his role in Jeju Island Gatsby
Jeju Island Gatsby (aka Warm and Cozy) is coming exclusively to DramaFever tonight! Become a fan of the series HERE to receive new episode alerts.
B1A4 leader, vocalist, and actor Jung Jin Young has taken on a new role in the Hong Sisters' drama Jeju Island Gatsby (aka Warm and Cozy) alongside Yoo Yun Suk and Kang So Ra. In recent interviews about the DramaFever exclusive, he has expressed his excitement for the role of Jung Poong San, and here's why:
1. He likes to talk!
Yes, you read that right. Jin Young stated during a recent interview that in his previous roles he may have had a lot of screen time, but he didn't actually have very many lines of dialogue. His role of Poong San apparently offers him relief because he finally gets a chance to speak numerous lines with less screen time.
2. He enjoys the challenge of different characters.
Jin Young loves to be dynamic. In addition to getting to speak more lines, he gets to play a type of character he never has before. The character, Poong San, will work in the Warm and Cozy restaurant that is owned by Baek Gun Woo, who is played by Yoo Yun Suk, and is said to be a fun, lovable guy.
3. The opportunity has brought him closer to the other members of B1A4.
Jin Young is no stranger to drama roles, but he continues to seek advice from his fellow B1A4 members as Baro, CNU, and Sandeul have taken part in dramas or musicals. While Gongchan hasn't had roles other than variety shows and music video appearances, he is said to be fully supporting Jin Young.
4. It's his first broadcast drama.
Although he has been in drama roles before, this is the first time he'll be in a show that is widely available through public broadcast! The chance to reach a new audience is exciting and nerve-racking... Let's hope he gains many new fans!
Jeju Island Gatsby premiers today exclusively on DramaFever! Watch the trailer below or sign up for new episode notifications by clicking HERE!

The boxer has large heart and strong musculature, but is also known for being susceptible to heart problems. Because of its unique head shape with a short face and underbite (Brachycephaly type), your boxer has a unique eating technique. He tends to suck in his food before he eats it. Liker all large dogs, a boxers digestive system is more sensitive than smaller dogs. Royal Canin Boxer Dry Dog Food was specially developed with the aforementioned characteristics in mind: Muscle maintenance and joint protection: Royal Canin Boxer Dog Food supports the maintenance of muscle mass, has an optimal protein content (26%), and is rich in L-carnitine, Chrondroitin, glucosamine as well as Omega 3 Fatty acids (EPA/DHA) to protect the joints.

A dental restoration or dental filling is a dental restorative material used to restore the function, integrity and morphology of missing tooth structure. The structural loss typically results from caries or external trauma. It is also lost intentionally during tooth preparation to improve the aesthetics or the physical integrity of the intended restorative material.
Tooth Preparation:
Restoring a tooth to good form and function requires two steps, (1) preparing the tooth for placement of restorative material or materials, and (2) placement of restorative material or materials.
The process of preparation usually involves cutting the tooth with special dental burrs, to make space for the planned restorative materials, and to remove any dental decay or portions of the tooth that are structurally unsound.
In preparing a tooth for a restoration, a number of considerations will come into play to determine the type and extent of the preparation. The most important factor to consider is decay. For the most part, the extent of the decay will define the extent of the preparation, and in turn, the subsequent method and appropriate materials for restoration.

After 2 years of flogging the need to transform Canada's National Research Council (NRC) into a toolbox for industry, the Conservative government announced today that the 97-year-old agency is "open for business" under its new philosophy.
"If Canada is going to continue to compete internationally, we must do it through new ideas, new products, and opening new markets. In other words, through innovation," Minister of State for Science and Technology Gary Goodyear told a press conference in Ottawa. "The NRC will now focus on the identified research needs of Canadian businesses. It will be customer pull."
NRC has for decades been the government's primary in-house performer of research in perceived areas of national need, including radio astronomy and agriculture. Its successes include the pacemaker, canola, the crash position indicator to locate downed airplanes, and the Canadarm, which deploys payloads for the space shuttles and the International Space Station.
Those innovations were the fruits of curiosity-driven research. But under the new policies, NRC scientists will tackle questions raised by individual businesses, while more basic research will be shuffled off to other departments or abandoned altogether.
It's not clear what that change will ultimately mean for the roughly 4000 employees at about 50 facilities across the country with an overall budget of $900 million per year. Goodyear indicated that NRC's existing divisions, which he called "institutional fiefdoms," will be restructured around specific economic sectors. An agency press release notes that there are now 12 "industry-themed entry points" such as "automotive and surface transportation," "security and disruptive technologies," and "human health therapeutics." However, the list also includes one umbrella category called "national science infrastructure."
Opposition leaders wasted no time in condemning the new approach. "Conservative incompetence meets Conservative narrow-mindedness," said New Democrat science and technology critic Kennedy Stewart in a statement. "They don't want research driven by researchers themselves or public funding for science going towards actual scientific advancement. Their short-sided approach will in fact hurt economic growth in the long run because it shuts the door on the long-view fundamental research that truly leads to scientific breakthroughs."
As early as March 2012, Goodyear had deplored NRC as a "loose federation of institutes." He said then that the government expected John McDougall, a petroleum engineer appointed NRC president in 2010, to reshape it into an industry-driven organization. Toward that end, the government provided $67 million in its fiscal 2012 to 2013 blueprint to affect the transformation. Last month's federal budget contained $121 million over 2 years for NRC to "help the growth of innovative businesses in Canada."
Goodyear told today's press conference that the government was implementing the recommendations of an expert panel, led by OpenText chair Tom Jenkins, which had been asked to review federal support of research. Its report envisioned the revamped NRC as "a constellation of large-scale, sectoral collaborative R&D centres involving business, the university sector and the provinces." It said NRC's public policy-related research should be shifted "to the appropriate federal agencies."
McDougall told the press conference that NRC is eager to focus on industrial needs. "Scientific discovery is not valuable unless it has commercial value," he said. "We are committed to being a strong partner for innovation, and … we will measure our success by the success of our clients."

"But you can't dispute the fact that a seaquake may have taken place, when you consider the striking results as shown by the cable interruptions which we have been experiencing for the last six days," began Webster again.
"Have we really?" said Harryman. "Are you quite sure of it? So far the only authority we have for this supposed seaquake is a Japanese captain--whom, by the way, I am having sharply watched--and a bundle of worthless Hong-Kong newspapers. And as for the rest of my hallucinations"--he jumped down from the window-sill and, going up to Webster, held out a sheet of paper toward him--"I'm in the habit of using other sources of information than the English-Japanese fingerposts."
Webster glanced at the paper and then looked at Harryman questioningly.

7 U.S. Code § 197 - Statutory trust established; poultry
It is hereby found that a burden on and obstruction to commerce in poultry is caused by financing arrangements under which live poultry dealers encumber, give lenders security interest in, or place liens on, poultry obtained by such persons by purchase in cash sales or by poultry growing arrangements, or on inventories of or receivables or proceeds from such poultry or poultry products therefrom, when payment is not made for the poultry and that such financing arrangements are contrary to the public interest. This section is intended to remedy such burden on and obstruction to commerce in poultry and protect the public interest.
All poultry obtained by a live poultry dealer, by purchase in cash sales or by poultry growing arrangement, and all inventories of, or receivables or proceeds from such poultry or poultry products derived therefrom, shall be held by such live poultry dealer in trust for the benefit of all unpaid cash sellers or poultry growers of such poultry, until full payment has been received by such unpaid cash sellers or poultry growers, unless such live poultry dealer does not have average annual sales of live poultry, or average annual value of live poultry obtained by purchase or by poultry growing arrangement, in excess of $100,000.
Payment shall not be considered to have been made if the cash seller or poultry grower receives a payment instrument which is dishonored.
The unpaid cash seller or poultry grower shall lose the benefit of such trust if, in the event that a payment instrument has not been received, within 30 days of the final date for making payment under section 228b–1 of this title, or within 15 business days after the seller or poultry grower has received notice that the payment instrument promptly presented for payment has been dishonored, the seller or poultry grower has not preserved his trust under this section. The trust shall be preserved by giving written notice to the live poultry dealer and by filing such notice with the Secretary.
For the purpose of this section, a cash sale means a sale in which the seller does not expressly extend credit to the buyer.
Section effective 90 days after Nov. 23, 1987, see section 12 of Pub. L. 100–173, set out as an Effective Date of 1987 Amendment note under section 182 of this title.

These kale recipes, aka Grünkohl, make the most out of this very healthy vegetable. High in beta carotene, vitamins K and C, and rich in calcium, this vegetable used to be the most common green vegetable in Europe until the Middle Ages.
Now, because of its health benefits, it is again considered one of the super foods!
Below you'll find several recipes that use kale. They range from the simple to the more elaborate. All delicious. Use these as starting points to creating your own variations.
When choosing fresh kale, go for the smaller leaves as they will be more tender. Use as soon as possible because storing it for long increases its bitter taste.
To cook fresh kale, first trim off the tough center stalk. Rinse well and put them into a pan without shaking the water off. Cover and cook for about 2 minutes until wilted. Drain. Use in the following recipes when it asks for blanched kale.
For speed and ease, buy either frozen, canned, or jarred kale. These are ready to use.
Ingredients: (4 servings)
Ingredients: (4 servings)
Cooking kale and then mixing it with mashed potatoes is a favorite way of serving this healthy vegetable to kids in both Holland and Germany.
Try it. You'll like it! Check out the recipe here.
Kale is a member of the cabbage family and comes with either smooth leaves or curly, crinkly ones. The leaves form a loose rosette at the top of the stem and, although often green, can also be tinged with blue or purple.

We will always love Whitney Houston.
That immutable fact is why fans of the late singer eagerly await the Lifetime biopic about her life "I Will Always Love You: The Whitney Houston Story."
We've already gotten a look at what Yaya DeCosta and Arien Escarpeta as Houston and Bobby Brown, but what will Whitney sound like?
According to E! News, it will be R&B songstress Deborah Cox who will will be the voice that brings Houston's iconic discography to life for the Angela Bassett-directed film.
According to reports, the music rights and clearances are still being worked out, but Cox will provide the vocal tracks for the former America's Next Top Model contestant's onscreen performance.
The movie, which is currently shooting in Los Angeles, will highlight Houston and Brown's tabloid relationship.
"I really just want to tell a story about a boy and a girl who fell in love," said Bassett, who co-starred with Houston in "Waiting To Exhale." And I want to be as honest as I can about doing that."
"I Will Always Love You: The Whitney Houston Story" is set to premiere on Lifetime next year.

2. Turntable Types
There are two main types of turntable available analogue and digital. Both reproduce the recording in the same way, but the control of the turntable platter speed and audio output differ:
Analogue Turntables
This is the most common type of turntable available. At the lower end of the market expect to see standard stereo phono outputs and only the most basic controls. At the entry level, most companies will provide a belt-driven platter system and a resistor based 0% pitch lock. The belt-driven system provides less torque than the equivalent direct-drive system, and is not as stable at a given pitch setting, which can exaggerate a characteristic of turntables (and analogue tapes) called warble. Although any such instabilities are normally minor, it can make beat matching two records more difficult.
Higher up the price range, expect to find direct-drive turntables, which dispense with the belt in the drive system. This means that the motor is directly attached to the centre pinion of the turntable platter itself. As a result, there is a lot less fluctuation in rotational speed, and spin-up time is much faster. The most famous DJ turntable of this type is the Technics SL1200 MK2, which has been available in almost exactly the same form since 1978. (Despite urban myth, the only difference between the SL1200 and the SL1210 is the colour.)
Digital Turntables
Digital turntables differ from analogue ones by using a VCA fader for controlling the pitch of the turntable. This means that the position of the fader is fed into a digital circuit, which in turn is used to control the speed of the platter, instead of the fader directly controlling the motor. In this way, the speed can be controlled more accurately, and as a bonus, the RPM or percentage of pitch adjustment of the platter can be output to a display.
Not all companies offer digitally controlled models, and they are normally fairly pricey units due to the added expense of the technology inside them.

My husband and I stayed here for the weekend. I adore the new and old mixed in this place. We did spend most of our time on the lake. The cabin was comfortable and outfitted with everything we needed. My only negative is having to haul off trash. I don't like having to put it in my car to drive it somewhere.
Adorable little cabin. Everything we needed and more. A little larger shower stall would be nice, but it has a detachable shower head that helps make up for the space. Loved the porch & the chairs to lounge on. Several deer meander around the neighborhood & a little view of the lake is able to be seen from the porch.
We appreciated Joe's responsiveness & making sure we had everything we needed. Perfect girls weekend!!!
Cute cabin. Good location. Would rent again.
We loved our stay in the cozy A-Frame. The furnishings were comfortable and attractive.. The cabin was very clean and the surroundings were well maintained. We enjoy cooking, so loved the full kitchen. The surroundings and view were beautiful -- great times on the deck. And, we really enjoyed the close lake access. It was perfect for swimming and for canoeing. And, the deer! How fun it was to look out the window and see deer in the yard.
Joe and his family were very friendly and we really appreciated how they checked in with us to make sure we had what we needed.
We enjoyed ourselves so much that we were already looking at booking again before we had even checked out!
This was our first time using VRBO and we were not disappointed! Joe was quick to answer questions and provided us information regarding the property location as well as the boat ramp in the area. The A-Frame was all we had expected and more. It was clean, comfortable, very well taken care of, and the bath towels were super soft and plentiful! It was nice to have bottled water waiting for us in the fridge, as well as snacks on the table. Loved the fact that we could run a load of laundry in the washer/dryer before heading home. We have a good sized boat and trailer, and had no problems parking it on the property. We would recommend this property to anyone wanting a nice place to stay, and we hope to make it back there again this summer!
Thank you Joe for providing us with a great place to stay for a long weekend!
This cabin is a great size for a single family with 2-4 kids looking to stay close to Grand Lake. It has everything you need and is very clean and updated. My kids loved the loft it was like having there own room upstairs. I'm 6 foot 5 so the small shower was a bit of a challenge but we are used to showering in a camper so it was no big deal. Has a nice open lot next to it for playing games, cooking out, and having a campfire. The boat ramp and fishing docks are just a few blocks away. I would give this cabin 5 stars if it was closer to the water and had a better view of the lake but overall a great little cabin!

The Airbus A350 XWB – the first delivery of which was to Qatar Airways – has an all-new design offering a 25 per cent reduction in seat mile costs
The A350 XWB's fuel consumption is 25 per cent less than the competition thanks to its lower weight – achieved with 70 per cent advanced materials – and modern Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines
The initial next-generation A350 XWB jetliner for global launch customer Qatar Airways rolls out of the Airbus paint shop in Toulouse, France adorned with its complete airline livery
The historic delivery of Airbus' first A350 XWB – which is to be received on 22nd of December by launch customer Qatar Airways – will mark another major milestone for this advanced widebody jetliner that is setting new standards in terms of passenger comfort, operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
The A350 XWB programme has been particularly busy during 2014 as Airbus and other stakeholders worked toward the headline-making initial handover. This activity was highlighted by the continuation and completion of A350-900 flight testing; which was followed by Type Certification by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), received in September and November, respectively.
Lasting just over 14 months, which is an industry record, the A350-900 flight test and certification programme comprised a five-aircraft fleet which performed over 2,600 flight hours in total. During this campaign, Airbus successfully completed the certification trials which took the airframe and its systems beyond their design limits to ensure airworthiness criteria are fully met.
Airbus' A350 XWB is the world's most modern passenger jet, delivering a 25-per cent improvement in fuel efficiency compared to current aluminium long-range competitors. It is the result of an extra open collaboration right from the start among all stakeholders.
The remarkable fuel-efficiency is the product of cutting-edge technology. More than two-thirds of this jetliner's airframe is made from composite materials, titanium and advanced aluminium alloys. The fuselage and wings are built from carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic. The latest aerodynamics sharpen the A350's operational efficiency, while its Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines use the most advanced propulsion technology.
At the end of November 2014, the A350 XWB had logged 778 firm orders from 41 customers worldwide. To meet this demand, Airbus is ramping up production progressively to reach the planned rate of 10 aircraft per month by 2018.

During this summer I have had the chance to use the organ at the church of St Benet & All Saints in Kentish Town, north London, and to attend some Sunday services.
St Benet's is an impressive building perched atop a hill overlooking the valley of the Fleet river. The church was built in stages between 1884 and 1928 on a site given by St. John's College, Cambridge, then engaged in property speculation by developing its land in the area for well-to-do housing. While the parish adheres to traditional 'high' Anglican principles its worship is very nicely fitted to modern liturgical sensibilities.
The church has a small, two-manual pipe organ sited in a gallery high above the north side of the chancel. In an earlier incarnation this instrument had been a house organ designed and built by the eminent London firm of Gray and Davidson, and exhibited at the Great Exhibition (1861). It was rebuilt and enlarged in 1933 by the far less eminent firm of Richards & Matthews of Finchley. More …
In its elevated chancel position the organ's primary function was to accompany the liturgical action in the chancel area, sung masses and the Daily Office. The instrument struggles to support worship in the nave. (See also …). Even in the chancel the separation of the organ and organist from those below is musically demanding. In short, the pipe organ in St Benet's was always a very limited liturgical organ and although still in situ it is now unplayable.
Thus, in around 2000 the parish purchased a large, brand new electronic (pipeless) instrument from Wyvern Organs; more … .
Built before the days of digital technology, the Wyvern instrument is nonetheless a joy to play, not only for the well-designed console and keyboard action but also for the quality of its sampled sound; money seems to have been well invested in a very high-quality speaker system.
The instrument's specification is large by any standard and it really does sound very good in the building. The reed stops seem particularly effective. Most importantly this 'new' instrument is able to support the needs of parish worship in general and congregational singing in particular. The folk of St Benet's do sing well.
A small confession here is that on my first visit I was a bit disappointed to find only an electric, pipeless instrument to play on, even though I knew the pipe organ here to be no masterpiece. You see, I had played it before, some 30 years or so ago and rather enjoyed it … not so much for the instrument but for the crows-nest position of the organist!
But this rather splendid electric, pipeless machine has won me over to the potential of the pipeless organ.
Trivia/l point: according to Rev'd Dr Peter Anthony, the priest in charge, the large crucifix above the high altar was originally part of the set decoration for the 1964 film 'Becket'.

Orbiter is a spacecraft simulation tool (link to pdf), an in depth simulation based on complex physics. Orbiter models space travel (in a variety of craft), planetary motion and atmospheric effects. It requires a basic knowledge of the principles of space flight and lots of practice.
Since man last set foot on the Moon in 1972,
plans for manned spaceflight to the Moon & beyond have
been 'virtual', in that they have never advanced further than the designers
presentation and artists impression. Virtual Spaceflight
contains links to sites that detail many of these plans, some of which you can
fly in
Orbiter. On this site you will find links to other spaceflight simulator
software as well as many
other links that are relevant to the subject.
Orbiter has a large range of add-on spacecraft, ranging from real life to sci-fi. The quality of many of them is quite outstanding and represents the work of many hours of programming and graphic design. There is even an auto-pilot available as a separate add-on called REDSHIFT by Bernd R. Fix, that can fly a spacecraft into orbit and dock with another craft without any user intervention. In fact quite a lot can be learnt by just watching it 'do its thing'.
Initially the learning curve is steep, as not only do you have to learn to fly your chosen spacecraft, but also master the numerous keyboard commands and the physics of spaceflight. After a few hours you can feel your brain aching - well, mine did anyway. But it's well worth the effort when something that seemed at first, impossible to grasp, finally 'clicks'.
To download Orbiter (it's free!) visit the main Orbiter site. To learn more about Orbiter before you start using it, take a look at Wikipedia's Orbiter page.
For a good introduction to Orbiter, have a read of The Space Review article by Bruce Irving. Also be sure to check-out his blog "Music of the Spheres", regularly, for discussion of Orbiter and other space related issues. You can also download his eBook 'Go Play in Space' from this site, which is a kind of 'Orbiter for Dummies' (no insult intended).
Another worthwhile site is Nasaspaceflight.Com, run by Chris Bergin a UK journalist based in York. His contacts at NASA and elsewhere, together with some very knowledgeable posters make for interesting and informative reading. If you're fed up with some of the flame wars that break out on other forums you'll like this site, as it has a zero tolerance policy that is strictly enforced. Recently, this site has hosted some Q&A discussions with Dr. 'Doug' Stanley of Georgia Tech who ran the Exploration Systems Architecture Study (ESAS) team during the 90-day study, which produced the ESAS Final Report, and Chris Thompson, SpaceX VP of Development Operations - here.
If you find this site useful, please take time to sign my Guest Book and pass on any relevant comments about this site or its contents.

Overall Goal
The overall goal of the TN on Arctic Economic Science is to promote research that improve the knowledge of how the diverse changes in the Arctic affect opportunities and constraints of existing populations and the potential for economic growth/change, and thereby extend and improve the knowledge base for informed policy advice. The TN will further emphasize an experimental methodological approach in accordance with principles adhered to by the Economic Science Association (ESA). More institutions in the Arctic should be interested in doing social science experimental research as many institutions recently have begun to do outside the Arctic. A goal of the TN is to facilitate the transfer of knowledge necessary to get started. This goal may have immediate intrinsic value to the receiving institutions both in terms of enabling the use of experiments for educational purposes and giving a head start for doing own research, in addition to contributing to the overall goal in the long term.
Main Activities
Main activities in the short run are related to identifying research issues for joint projects and possible funding possibilities, and develop project proposals for applications. By bringing together institutions from different parts of the Arctic World, there is a range of potential benefits. The possible sources for funding increase, the general interest of the research is likely to be greater, cultural and language specific barriers to data collection from several countries are removed, international knowledge exchange within the network is facilitated, and a wider dissemination of results outside the research community is more easily obtainable.
To facilitate research cooperation, the TN plans on meeting physically on at least two occasions annually during international conferences and host workshops and organize sessions for paper presentations whenever appropriate. In addition, efforts are undertaken to ensure mobility among the partner institutions on a bilateral basis.
Current and Planned Activities
- Coordinated attendance at a second international conference (to be decided) hosting a workshop or organizing a session
- Student and faculty mobility between HSE and UiT (funding applied for, decision pending)
- Extension of partners – first priority on bringing in an institution from Asia (North America, Euope and Russia already represented)
- Continued efforts to secure long term funding of research projects involving all partner institutions
Past Activities
- Student and faculty mobility between UAA and UiT (HNPla-2014/10050 - Conflict and cooperation in the High North – an experimental approach, financial support from SIU)
- Coordinated attendance at ICASS IX Umeaa June 2017, organizing a session on Experimental Approaches to Human Behavior (Session 17.20)
