Baldwinsville, NY -- Baldwinsville Superintendent Jeanne Dangle announced tonight that she will retire on July 1, 2014, a year before her contract expires.
Dangle surprised community members and some district officials with her announcement. Her friends and family attended the meeting for support.
Dangle, 58, has served as superintendent for 11 years and has a five-year contract with the district, which is set to expire on June 30, 2015.
Dangle told the school board that she was proud to be the superintendent, but thought that this was the right time to retire.
The Baldwinsville Central School District Board of Education amended the superintendent's contract earlier this month to include a $50,000 incentive in return for an early notification of when she plans to retire.
Dangle gave that notification to the board tonight.
Former school board member Kenneth Dwyer spoke out against the incentive tonight and asked Dangle to turn down the $50,000.
"I think you should give this money back where it belongs - to the kids," he said.
Dwyer asked the board where the money came from and said if he was still on the board he would have stopped the vote.
"I don't remember setting aside $50,000," he said. "I'm disappointed in the board."
Board Member Steven Schweitzer was the only board member not approve the incentive on Oct. 7. Schweitzer abstained.
"I didn't feel I had enough information to make an informed decision," Schweitzer said.
Board President Burrill Wells said the incentive was important to give the district time to start a superintendent search. Wells said Dangle's early notification will give the district time to find the right person for the position, without having to hire an interim.
Wells said the district has blossomed under Dangle's leadership.
"I admire her so much," Wells said. "The district has changed for the better in 11 years."
Dangle said her reason for retiring is to spend time with family, including her five grandchildren.
"I want to spend time with the ones I love while I'm healthy and can enjoy life," she said.

I am up in Washington, D.C. tonight for President Barack Obama's State of the Union address. Prior to the speech I caught up with some the Virginia's congressional delegation. Both Republicans and Democrats want a path to an end to the sequestration budget stalemate.
Here is my report for NBC12:
WASHINGTON, D.C. (WWBT)- Virginians from ever corner of the Commonwealth will be keeping a close eye on one particular issue in tonight's State of the Union address.
Sequestration, set to take effect on March 1st could mean huge cuts to defense and government jobs throughout Virginia. In fact, there may be no state in the union with a more at stake than Virginia when it comes to the sequester, and the entire congressional delegation knows it
"Virginia families are going to be disproportionately hurt," said Sen. Mark Warner (D) this afternoon. "Sequestration basically says we are going to chop every part of government whether it is working or not and as a former business guy that is not the smart way to do budgeting."
Warner understands that the idea of lopping off funding to almost all of government without any plan won't work. He isn't alone, this weekend Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Henrico) gave similar sentiments on NBC's Meet The Press.
"These indiscriminate reductions do not make sense and we are going to hurt a lot of people and it is up to the President to act now," said Cantor.
And even though Cantor is a republican. Democrat Sen. Tim Kaine, who played no part in the sequestration being implemented agrees with the Henrico Republican. Tonight the president needs to lead the charge to solve the problem.
"I want the president to talk to tough to all of us," Kaine said. "Republican, Democrat House, Senate about finding the alternative to sequester."
NBC's live coverage of the State of the Union starts at 9pm. You can also join our livechat and watch the speech streaming on NBC12.com.
I'll have another live report tonight at 11 on NBC12.

Several hearty dashes of Bitters of your choice
20-25 Mint Leaves
- If using wooden ice pop sticks, soak sticks for an hour in warm water before making pops (helps keep them from floating up when inserted into molds.)

- Combine all of the rest of the ingredients with the thawed blackberries. Pulse until the mint is fairly well chopped up.

Two Israelis were killed and 20 wounded after Palestinian gunmen fired on a crowd of people in the northern town of Afula. Israeli police and witnesses say the two Palestinian gunmen opened fire at a crowded bus station in Afula.
The assailants fled to a nearby market firing automatic weapons in all directions. Police killed both Palestinians.
Members of the militant Islamic Jihad and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement claimed responsibility, saying the attack was a joint operation conducted by the two groups. Afula is close to the West Bank and has been the target of several terrorist attacks in the past year.
Meanwhile, U.S. envoys Tuesday began a new diplomatic effort designed to end more than a year of Israeli-Palestinian bloodshed.
State Department envoy William Burns and retired Marine Corps General Anthony Zinni met with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and other top officials.
In a move designed to show Israel's security needs, Mr. Sharon took the envoys on a helicopter tour of the Jewish state and the Palestinian territories. Israeli government spokesman Zalman Shoval says the Afula attack demonstrates the importance of reaching a truce.
"This incident, of course, is tragic. But on the other hand it will enable our American friends to get a first hand impression of the situation that we are facing and how important indeed it is to try to achieve a cease-fire," said Mr. Shoval.
Earlier, under cover of darkness, Israel pulled its soldiers out of Jenin, the last Palestinian West Bank town still re-occupied by the military. Israel occupied six Palestinian-ruled towns in October, following the assassination of an Israeli cabinet minister by Palestinian militants.
The Jenin pullback had been postponed due to what the Israeli defense ministry said was a continuing threat of attacks from militants in the town.
The United States has repeatedly called for Israel to withdraw from Palestinian-ruled territory in the West Bank.
A Palestinian security official called the redeployment cosmetic, because soldiers continue to remain in positions around the town.

Will Ferrell's Spanish-Language Movie: ¿Qué?
Watch the trailer for 'Casa de mi Padre.'
¿Cómo se dice "Will Ferrell made a movie in Spanish"? Because that's what we've got here with the trailer for Casa de mi Padre, a feature-length telenovela spoof from Ferrell where he stars opposite Mexican film stalwarts Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna. (If it sounds like a Funny or Die spoof, that may be because it was directed by Matt Piedmont, who helmed many FoD shorts for Ferrell.) We'll give it this: It's certainly the best-looking film Ferrell's ever made. And, as the trailer boasts, it does have the requisite number of slaps, cigarettes, and pistols (but no thrown vases or wheelchair accidents thus far). But will the film's main joke hold over 90-plus minutes? Yo no sé.

Save Thousands Getting Quality Care from Our Approved Offices
Don't Put Off Dental Care Because Of The Cost
If you have the need for extensive dental treatment, you can get affordable dental care while saving thousands of dollars through our program. On average, our patients save 50% – 80% on dental treatments performed at our offices in Mexico.
Our Story
When the founders of Beyond Borders Dental learned from their local dentist that they needed four dental crowns and it would cost over $6000, they began asking friends about possible dentists in Mexico. Several people with positive personal experiences recommended dentists in Mexico.
They traveled there to see for themselves. After examination, the quote for all four dental crowns was $920, a savings of over $5000! A third member of the Beyond Borders Dental team had experienced these kinds of savings with dental care her father needed. The price in the US was over $20,000. When the dental treatment was completed in Mexico it was less than $2000, a savings of over $18,000. These are the actual savings of the members of our staff.
"I absolutely LOVE Beyond Borders Dental! They saved me over $10,000 in dental care in Mexico! My service was handled very professionally…"
— Lynn V., Santa Fe, New Mexico —
Cost Comparisons For Getting Dental Care in Mexico

|Porcelain 3-Unit Bridge
|Dental Implant w/Crown
|Root Canal
|Partial Denture
(per plate)
|Full Denture
|Porcelain Veneer (per tooth)
|Dental Nightguard
Why put off needed dental work because of the cost?
The cost savings for extensive dental care in Mexico is so significant that you no longer have to postpone getting the treatment you need.
Here Are Some Recent Examples of Saving Big by Getting Dental Care in Mexico:
A 40-year old woman in Arkansas sent us her dental treatment plan with proposed costs of $6,013. The quote on the exact same procedures from our dental office in Mexico was $1,590, a savings of $4,423—or about a 74% savings.
The dental treatment plan from an engineer in North Carolina included twelve crowns and a total cost of over $22,000. The quote for dental treatment in Mexico was $2,190, a savings of over $20,000 on exactly the same services!
These are actual quotes from our dentists in Mexico based on dental treatment plans from US dentists. When the savings from the cost of one dental crown alone can be over $1000, there is a strong incentive to consider the options offered through our dental tourism programs.
Why Is It So Much Less Expensive In Mexico?
A number of factors contribute to the large savings for getting dental treatment done in Mexico. Because of the support of the Mexican government, dental education in a public dental institution is free or subsidized. In return, the graduating dentist in Mexico provides a year of free dental community service.
By contrast, US dentists leave school with $150,000 or more in loans to repay. Dentists in Mexico are not required to have mandatory malpractice insurance, which is very expensive, and the society as a whole is not litigious in the way the US is. In addition, both labor and real estate, including rent, are much less expensive in Mexico.
The government also monitors and restricts excessive profits on medications and pharmaceutical products used in dentistry. And finally, the cost of living for dentists and their staff is considerably less expensive in Mexico.
We've selected the best dental offices and dentists in northern Mexico, to be part of our program. With Beyond Borders Dental you don't have to sacrifice quality dental care to save money.
What Other Costs Do I Have To Receive Dental Care In Mexico?
Keep in mind that you are receiving your services away from home. There is a trade-off for the substantial savings you get in terms of the additional time involved and costs for transportation, lodging, and meals. In most cases, these costs are dwarfed by the savings you can realize by having the procedures done at one of our Beyond Borders Dental offices in Mexico. Even one crown is less expensive when including all travel costs.
When you submit your dental treatment plan to us and receive your quote, in many cases you will know how many visits are necessary to complete your dental treatment in Mexico.
If you choose our Dental Concierge Program, your quote will include:
- Transportation costs from our service centers in Santa Fe or Albuquerque
- Lodging at special discount rates with our hotel partners
- Special savings for other services such as eyeglasses and prescriptions from merchants in our Partners program
What If I Have Dental Insurance? Will I Be Covered In Mexico?
Some of our dentistal offices in Mexico can help you with the US dental insurance on a case-by-case basis. Contact your dental insurance provider about their policies regarding getting dental care done in Mexico. If they will cover your dental care in Mexico, you can print out their reimbursement forms and use the information provided by your Mexican dentist to apply for reimbursement. Remember, it's your responsibility to process your insurance claims with your dental insurance provider.
Many people find dental insurance barely worth the savings because of the limited coverage, even for US dental services. As one patient put it, "Invest in travel to Mexico."

Cantor Robert Sirotnik
Dr. Robert Sirotnik (who prefers Cantor Bob) has been the cantor at Temple Beth El since 1971, and practicing as a cantor since 1969.
He received his cantorial training from famed cantors Philip Moddel and William Sharlin. Though officially responsible for music at TBE, Bob and his wife Barbara are at least as renowned for their immeasurable depth of caring. Dr. Sirotnik is also TBE's choir director and a well respected dentist in our community.
Elise Haton – Senior Administrator
"X-New Yorker, X-Valley Girl, X-cellent people person and always ready to help you," she says.Elise Haton was born in Bronx, New York and moved to the San Fernando Valley when she was 13. She attended Cal State University Northridge where she majored in Business.
She worked for Wells Fargo Bank for 17 years and was a Vice President at the Beverly Hills Branch. Since moving to Riverside she volunteered on the then named Riverside General Hospital Foundation Board and was chair of some committees for the "Festival of Trees" which is a yearly event run by the board of the hospital foundation. The proceeds of this fundraiser go to the neo-natal ward for purchasing equipment to better serve their little patients."
Elise has been Temple Administrator since 1999 and recently received her "Senior" status in Temple Administration from the National Association of Temple Administrators. She is responsible for all administrative functions.
Her hobby is bicycle riding. One of her favorite things about being Jewish is working at Temple Beth El and watching our Jewish children grow into young adults who embrace Judaism.
Carolee Jaspan – M'Lamedet
For more than 25 years, Carolee Jaspan has taken every Bar & Bat Mitzvah student under her wing with knowledge, love, caring, and grace. At TBE, we do the bakery jingle a little differently: " Nobody doesn't like Ca-ro-lee "
Carolee comes to us from Ware, Massachusetts where she attended Brandeis University. Her curriculum included science and Jewish studies. She relocated to Riverside in 1965. In 1981, she was asked by the rabbi of Temple Beth El to volunteer as the M'lamedet and teach the B'Mitzvah students their Torah and Haftorah portions and prayers. Carolee is a pied piper with children. They are enthusiastic and drawn to her. She states that " it is the most wonderful volunteer job I have ever had." Our B'Mitzvah program is more than comprehensive than most as the children do the entire Friday and Saturday Shabbat Services in addition to their Torah and Haftorah portions. Temple Beth El is very lucky to have her.
Diane Eskritt – Temple Secretary
Besides being the "voice of TBE,' Diane also runs the Weiss Judaica Gift Shop at the Temple.

Organisers: Denis Bernard (Paris), Fabian H. L. Essler (Oxford), Giuseppe Mussardo (Trieste), German Sierra (Madrid).
Workshop Theme
Through elegant mathematical solutions of paradigmatic models quantum integrability provides a detailed understanding of fundamental properties of certain quantum states of matter, thus bridging the beauty of mathematics with the richness of the physical world. Cross-fertilization between mathematics and physics has been key to many advances in quantum integrability. Recent years have witnessed tremendous experimental progress in cold atom physics, which has made it possible to realize isolated, low dimensional many-particle quantum systems and study their non-equilibrium dynamics. Quantum integrable models have played an important role in this area. These developments have posed a new set of challenging questions about quantum integrable models.
The main aim of the workshop, which is part of a larger programme on the same subject, is to explore synergies between mathematicians and physicists from leading groups around the world in order develop new methods for the calculation of physical properties of experimental interest. Topics covered by the workshop include experiments on non-equilibrium dynamics in isolated quantum systems, quantum quenches, thermalization, driven quantum systems and dynamical correlation functions.
Speakers include
A. Abanov, F. Alcaraz, S. Attal, I. Bloch, P. Calabrese, J.Cardy, J.S. Caux, I.Cirac, B. Doyon, J. Eisert, M. Fagotti, T. Giamarchi, V. Gritsev, C.Kollath, A. Ludwig, V. Terras, J. Moore, T. Prosen, H. Saleur, J. Schmiedmayer, E. Sklyanin, R. Vasseur

Skip to comments.President Obama carried Miraculous Medal in his pocket [Catholic Caucus]
Posted on 01/23/2009 10:05:55 AM PST by NYer
The lastest issue of French magazine Paris Match has published an interesting photograph of President Obama revealing what he always carries in his pockets. Among the items is a Miraculous Medal. The photo also shows another medal with the image of the Virgin Mary holding the Infant Jesus.
The lastest issue of French magazine Paris Match has published an interesting photograph of President Obama revealing what he always carries in his pockets. Among the items is a Miraculous Medal. The photo also shows another medal with the image of the Virgin Mary holding the Infant Jesus.(This photo first appeared in Time Magazine in June 2008).
The medal has an association with Medjugorje. On November 27, 1989, Our Lady said to the visionary Marija:
These days, I want you to pray in a special way for the salvation of souls. Today is the feast day of the miraculous medal, and I want that you pray, in a special way, for the salvation of those people who are carrying this miraculous medal. I want you to spread the devotion and carrying of this medal, so that more souls may be saved, and that you pray in a special way.
O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you.
On November 27 1830 at 5:30 pm, during meditation, St Catherine Labouré saw at the present location of the Virgin of the Globe (Rue de Bac) a vision of the Blessed Virgin. She was standing on a globe holding in her hands a small golden globe, her feet crushing a serpent. Coming from the open hands of the Blessed Virgin were beautiful rays of light. At that same moment Catherine heard a voice saying: "These rays are symbols of graces that Mary obtains for people." Then an oval formed around the vision and Catherine saw emblazoned in a semi-circle this invocation written in gold letters, and until then unknown: "O Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to you". Then the oval turned and Catherine saw on the reverse side, the letter M surmounted with a little cross and below it the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Catherine then heard these words: "Have a medal made as this. Those who wear it with confidence will receive great graces."
• further information about the Miraculous Medal and St Catherine Labouré can be found at the official website of the Chapel of the Rue de Bac.
For your discernment. If this is true, regardless of his reasons, we need to pray for him and the Congress.
I wonder if there will be very many posts on this.
Does he hold onto the medal tightly when a baby is dying in a metal tray after they are born? Does he cling to the medla as he supports partial birth abortions?
The Catholic Chruch needs to rid themselves of bishops and other leftist who gave $6 million in parishoners money to ACORN.
Say what?!?!?!?!? He carries Our Lady's Miraculous Medal?!?!? He who is a radical pro-abortionist?!?!?!? Oy gevalt!
He also carried a hindu monkey god idol in his pocket. I don't care what he carried. He still needs to be prayed for because the Lord commands it in His Word.
Is there any Muslim doo dad in there?
If not, it's all for show.
Obama: Theres the belief, certainly in some quarters, that people havent embraced Jesus Christ as their personal savior that they're going to hell.(Obama, 2004)
GG: You dont believe that?
OBAMA: I find it hard to believe that my God would consign four-fifths of the world to hell. I cant imagine that my God would allow some little Hindu kid in India who never interacts with the Christian faith to somehow burn for all eternity. Thats just not part of my religious makeup.
Yeah, that is like the soldiers bracelet he was wearing during the McCain debate.
These are trinkets from every religion out there. Yes, I'm glad he has a pretty little Catholic trinket. That does not make him a Catholic. If this is how you think, then he must be Hindu too, because he wears a Monkey God trinket dedicated to that Hindu God.
We also need to keep in mind that those who practice sorcery and witchcraft use Christian medals and such sometimes as part of their rituals
I recall a daily prayer thread for President Bush. I wonder if there is one for Barack Obama as well. One that maybe one day his eyes will open.
This kills me to say, but this is not far off from the current Catholic belief, as I understand it. We do believe there is punishment for a knowing rejection of Christianity, but not for someone who has not had exposure.
I don't believe the story about Hussein for one moment. It's an outright lie IMHO. I have been the Church at the Rue and the incorruptible body of St. Catherine is still preserved in a glass casing. At any time of the day there is an overflow crowd.
The Obama administration is pro-witchcraft:
Obama Support Group Code Pink Held Witchcraft Ceremony to Cleanse White House (January 20, 2009)
(no, this is not a hoax)
Boy are YOU right....how can he reconcile THAT medallion to abortion...OMG..I will never understand.
There is. I started it on election Eve. Just go to the Religion Forum and search pray for nation obama
He's either a pantheist or he's not sure what he believes and is covering all bases. A Catholic sacramental, a Hindu symbol and a bunch of other stuff.
You're right about praying for him, though. Salvation history is nothing if not the story of sinners who saw the light.
liberal white house staff folks get confused by religious stuff.

Both natural lighting and electrical lighting are included and both the Commission Internationale d'Eclairage and IESNA methods are introduced for daylighting calculations. An expanded version of the point method is shown that covers all orientations instead of only orthogonal relationships. Along with terms and fixtures commonly used in the profession, each chapter includes numerous examples, ending with exercises and study questions that enable readers to better understand the material.4.1.1 Series and Parallel Circuits Circuits may be wired in series or in parallel ( see Figure 4. 1). ... But between one circuit and another circuit there is the difference between the peak of one, and two-thirds of the way into the valley of the other.

There should be a law against most internal company conferences. No ..really there should!
My name is Bob Etherington and I am a veteran of at least 100 such 'do' s in the past 40 years and nearly all of them should never have been allowed! Well..let me rephrase that, just a bit: the plenary sessions should never have been allowed. That's the bit where the audience sit row upon row in the semi-dark, theater style, while their bosses and peers talk at them. They admonish them sometimes; congratulate them mostly and generally show them PowerPoint slides every time. "This is what they want!" Yeah right!
I asked one senior manager of a large British company what was his primary objective when he stepped on the conference platform. He replied, without hesitation: "I try to impress them!"
But Geoff (that is his name so now, if he reads this, he'll know it's him) your audience don't want to hear about 'You'. They are not the slightest bit interested in 'You'. And You [dear reader] are not the slightest bit interested in Bob Etherington.....that's just the way it is.
Of course what the conference audience is asking themselves -to a man- is the same unspoken question that you have in your head reading this: "What's in this for ME?"
Your audience -any conference audience- seeks to be generally and personally inspired to work hard so that the company may make even more money in the next fiscal year. You know from all the management courses you've attended that the art of management is to get staff to do voluntarily that which must be done anyway. So telling them all the good and worthy works YOU've completed isn't going to make them do anything. Remember the David Brent (Ricky Gervais) address to his staff in the early 2000 BBCTV comedy 'The Office'. "I have some good news and some bad news today. The bad news is we are amalgamating with the Swindon Office so some of you will be made redundant" [Silence and shocked faces] ...But the good news is... I've been promoted !! [More dumbfounded silence] ...Oh..I can see some of you are still on the bad news!" We wince with embarrassment because we have witnessed this type of crass statement in the real business World. It is not as rare as we hope.
In a recent HR survey it was firmly established once again that what staff value most of all in their jobs is not what many managers think it is. The most important factors are:
1) Feeling appreciated.
2) Having something interesting to do.
3) Being kept on the inside track.
4) Sympathy for personal problems.
5) Money.
6) A happy working environment.
7) Promotion prospects.
8) Job Security.
So to get the serried ranks of your employees inspired to come in early, stay late (and work hard while they are working for you), tell them how good they are and congratulate them. If times are tough keep them on the inside track by telling them what's going on. Cut the rumor mill off at the pass and tell them what you are doing to fix things for them. Tell them how they will benefit, personally, from doing what must be done.
Have the good manners also to rehearse your presentation in front of a person of similar standing in your company and ask for genuine feedback on how the message is coming across. Just showing up with a memory stick containing all your PowerPoint slides half an hour beforehand and hoping for the best is not inspirational management. The Victorian Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli stated that "Everybody loves flattery....but with Royalty you lay it on with a trowel" Your staff, just like my staff in Bob Etherington Group, are your Royalty and without them nothing happens. Your 'stuff' all about your department and your personal triumphs is not what most internal audiences want to hear. They are there to be inspired. So inspire them..flatter them...Say, "Thank you".... "I'm proud of you"...."Well done!" (the rarest and most powerful words in the management lexicon)
Now you're talking business!

A champagne glass in a soft, delicate hand does make an extremely pretty sight! Don't we all wish to have the perfectly manicured hands but almost always forget to dedicate those extra 10 minutes to them? Women spend hours at the parlour pampering their face and skin. What is important is to remember that 10 minutes of your time amidst the hustle-bustle of your day may just be enough for taking care of your hands and nails. Listed below are the basic steps for a self-manicure and some extremely essential dos and don'ts:
● The shaping and cleaning of the nails is definitely the first step towards the perfect hands. Remove old nail polish and gently shape the nails with a nail filer. Never clip the nails but always use a filer. The filing of the nails should always be done in one direction. Using the filer in a to-and-fro manner causes the nails to break. Never file the nails while the hands are wet because then, the nails are more susceptible to breaking.
● The hands should be absolutely clean. To remove off any dead skin and dirt that could have accumulated, soak your hands for about 7-10 minutes in a bowl of warm water to which the juice of a lemon has been added. You can even soak them in plain soapy water. This makes the skin soft and slowly removes off dirt. Gently scrub the hands with a lemon especially the back of the palms and around the nails
● To clean the dirt under the nails, use soap and an old toothbrush. This, in fact should be a part of your daily routine.
● Push back the cuticles gently. Never remove them off completely.
● Moisturize your hands and nails regularly. Invest a little money in a good hand cream and remember to properly moisturize the hands and the cuticles especially after washing off the hands.
● Never, never bite your nails. Not only is this habit unhealthy and unhygienic, but it can also change the shape of your nails forever and damage them excessively.

- Dell First to Offer Windows Mobile 2003 SE Handhelds
==== In the News ====
by Paul Thurrott, [email protected]
Dell First to Offer Windows Mobile 2003 SE Handhelds
This week, the world's largest computer maker unveiled three new Pocket PC devices, the first such devices to run the most recent release of Microsoft's PDA OS. Dell's new Axim X30 Pocket PC line runs Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition (SE), but that's not the only unique thing about these machines: Two of the models offer both Wi-Fi (the 802.11 wireless standard) and Bluetooth capabilities at unheard-of lowball prices. For price-conscious Dell, these machines are a logical extension of the company's standard pricing policy, but the Axim X30's effects will likely reverberate around the PDA community for weeks to come. The base Axim X30 starts at just $199 and features a 312MHz Intel XScale processor, 32MB of RAM, and 32MB of ROM. But for just $50 more you can get an Axim X30 model with integrated 802.11b Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless capabilities, 64MB of RAM, and 64MB of ROM. The high-end Axim X30 model features a market-leading 624MHz XScale processor, plus the midrange model's wireless capabilities, and retails for $349--a far cry from the $600 to $700 most PDA makers' high-end machines cost. All Axim X30 devices include 3.5" TFT color displays, Secure Digital (SD) expansion capabilities, navigation button and scroll wheel inputs, and removable batteries with optional high-capacity replacement batteries. Dell's pricing strategy, which is adapted from its successful run in the PC world, is a phenomenal boon to customers who are used to paying much higher prices for PDAs with comparable features. For example, palmOne doesn't offer a truly competitive product, and its $399 Tungsten T3 has integrated Bluetooth but not Wi-Fi. And HP's least-expensive device with integrated Wi-Fi/Bluetooth costs $449.
In related news, Dell will soon unveil a new line of printers, making more inroads into new markets with its PC pricing model. Dell's printers have done phenomenally well in their first year on the market, securing the company a small portion of the $160 billion worldwide printer market. But although most of Dell's sales have come from low-end inkjet printers, its upcoming printers will more directly target HP's corporate printing juggernaut, according to sources. Dell isn't providing any details about the new printers but admits that it will be some time before the company can fully round out its product line with color laser and multifunction printers. Currently, Dell partners with companies such as Eastman Kodak, Fuji Xerox, Lexmark, and SAMSUNG for its printer hardware.

YES! its final been discovered - Beer is good for you
Scientists at Oregon State University recently reported that the hops used to brew beer contain a compound that neutralizes free radicals -- the harmful molecules in the blood that can contribute to cancer and other diseases.
The compound is exclusive only to hops and is not found anywhere else, the researchers said, adding that the compound is more effective at neutralizing free radicals than similar compounds found in red wine and green tea.
According to the researchers, craft beers such as stouts, porters and other "hoppy" beers have much higher levels of the exclusive free radical-fighting compound than domestic lager and pilsner beers.

Budget Mascara Alert: Avon SuperFULL Midnight Mascara
Hey chicas!
Budget friendly mascara alert here with the new Avon SuperFULL Midnight Mascara. Don't you dare tell Armani but this stuff works almost as good as Eyes To Kill….shhhhh our secret k?
Check it after the jump!
Avon has a brand new mascara for $4.99 that's pretty impressive. Honestly, there isn't a whole lot of special about it. It's a regular inky black formula and a plastic straight line applicator. See? Not really special.
However, it performs like a super star.
I'm unsure if it's the applicator or the formula but it's promise of longer lashes rings true. It doesn't offer much in the ways of volume but it creates really great lenght and curl. The applicator fits the contour of my eye nicely and grasps all the lashes in one go. It doesn't smudge, flake, and wears all day. I find the best results are when lashes are curled prior to use.
Overall, it's pretty impressive for a $5 buck mascara. If you're not willing to dish out a pretty penny for the new Armani mascara I say try this. Works almost as good, for serious.
Loving it!
Muse Approval for purchase.

Our last few days in BC were kind of hectic with packing and cleaning and saying our goodbyes to family and friends but we managed to get everything packed and in the moving truck... including the hot tub :)
We were very thankful that we were able to find a truck that the hot tub would fit in and almost had to leave it in BC. We hired a moving company to move it for us but on the day he was to show up to pick it up he said his truck was full and couldn't move it. Needless to say we were scrambling to find alternate arrangements.
Luckily we found Universal Truck Rentals and we were able to cancel the UHaul (they had no trucks with door openings wide enough to fit it in). They had a Diesel truck that happened to have an opening just big enough to slide in the hot tub and gave us a discounted truck that was bigger so he could get it back East (apparently more people move to BC from Ontario then head back to Ontario from BC).
We expected to have lots of room left over in the truck but it's amazing just how much stuff we still brought even though we sold off twice as much as we are bringing in the last few months! It's incredible how much stuff accumulates and how fast. We thinned out sooo much but still managed to fill this huge truck and the trailer we towed behind it!
Finally everything was packed up, the house was all cleaned (A HUGE thank you to Ania for spending all day cleaning all the bathrooms and the kitchen...We owe you!And thanks to my mom for taking Sierra for the night so we could finish packing) Then it was time to load ourselves in the truck and say goodbye to our home.
Luckily our dear friend Jay flew out to help us drive across to Ontario. Believe it or not I have never pulled the trailer...I'm scared of having to back up (yes Ian did drive all 30,000km's we drove on our trip last summer!). The plan...was for us to rush so Jay could be back for work in 5 days! So we quickly threw the last few items into the truck and headed out.
I am extremely thankful Jay did come because the next morning Ian woke up and was very sick and we were only parked at a roadside stop just past Kelowna.
The girls had been sick before leaving and were still sickish too so our drive was anything but fun and I had to drive for the first time as we didn't have time to sit around.
Jay had to leave us in Sioux Saint Marie and fly home to work and we had to sit in a truck stop while I recuperated. If Jay hadn't flown out to help then we probably would have been in Calgary still! After 2 nights we had to move again because we needed to unload the truck and get it back. We loaded the girls into the moving truck with Ian so I could have complete silence to concentrate on driving. Whewww that was tricky but we arrived safe and sound! A HUGE thank you to Mark and Jeff for helping to unload the truck and to Ed, Keith, Matt and Alex for helping to unload the hot tub! (See the trend here of why this post was titled so many Thank yous... We have called on so many friends to help us with this move and we are very grateful for all their help)
Our next little hicup happened almost immediately. We couldn't park the trailer where we originally hoped so we scrambled to find an RV park that was open. Apparently no parks in Ontario open until May. Luckily the storage facility where our belongings are in storage had one space left we could rent until a local park opened. It was nothing more then a parking space along their driveway but it was a blessing to have as we waited for the camping season to open.
We spent Easter here...
Luckily the Easter Bunny found us and he brought wonderful nature bags and real binoculars for the girls. He also brought geode eggs the girls had fun cracking open.
Even though we were parked on the side of the road we were thankful for the hill beside us.
|Sierra studies her snail she found
|Remember curling dandelion stems as a child? They picked the stems
too short but we managed to get a few curls.
The girls cousin Charlie came for a sleep over and had a great time on that little hill.
|Sierra found an egg on a branch of a fir tree. It must have
been pushed out of the nest after it didn't hatch.
|They also discovered how fragile eggs can be...
|Charlie searching for clues
|Charlie and Sierra doing some investigative work
under the tree where the egg was found.
And if that wasn't fun enough...they also spotted a wild turkey on that hill...
So next time you see a little hill don't take it for granted. Be thankful for all it has to offer if you take the time to look :) It provided us with lots of fun rolling down it and also housed many dandelions and creatures to entertain the girls when we weren't out exploring Barrie and it's great parks or swimming at the fabulous pool here.
Many thanks to all of you who helped in so many ways with our move...we are truly grateful and appreciate everything you have done. Now we head off to our RV park to see what adventure lays waiting to be found.

Nectin-3 mutation in men with severe teratospermia
Data suggest that 3 independent regions of TcdB (Clostridium difficile toxin B; 1372-1493, 1493-1848, 1851-2366) contribute to binding and entry of TcdB into mammalian cells; residues 1372-1493 are sufficient for interaction with PVRL3.
Expression of nectin-3 in pancreatic cancer can be a prognostic factor.
PVRL3 is a physiologically relevant binding partner that can serve as a target for the prevention of TcdB-induced cytotoxicity in C. difficile infection.
Nectin-3 is associated with the formation of cell junctions and be a putative suppressor molecule to the invasion of breast cancer cells.
Nectin-3 trans-interacts with Nectin-2 (zeige PVRL2 Proteine) to promote lymphocyte and monocyte extravasation.
Data suggest that expression of nectin-3 is up-regulated in eutopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis as compared with control subjects and up-regulated in all endometriotic lesions investigated compared with eutopic endometrium.
Nectin-3 expressed in dentate gyrus neurons may modulate adult neurogenesis, dendritic spine plasticity and the cognitive effects of early-life stress.
-afadin-specific C-terminal inserts may be involved in its preference of binding to nectin-3 and raise the possibility that there are proteins other than nectins that more preferentially bind s-afadin than l-afadin.
owing to the loss of Nectin-3, hair cells contact each other inappropriately and form abnormal junctions, ultimately resulting in abnormal hair bundle orientation and morphology
Results indicate that PLEKHA7 plays a cooperative role with nectin and afadin in the proper formation of Adherens junction (AJ) in epithelial cell.
This study demonstrated that nectin1- and nectin3-mediated interactions between Cajal-Retzius cells cells and migrating neurons are critical for radial migration.
Cell adhesion molecule (zeige MCAM Proteine) nectin-3 is required for the effects of corticotropin releasing hormone (zeige CRH Proteine) receptor (zeige NR4A1 Proteine) (CRHR)1 (zeige CRHR1 Proteine) on cognition and structural remodeling after early-life stress exposure.
Nectin-3, which forms hetero-trans-dimers with nectin-1 (zeige PVRL1 Proteine), undergoes intramembrane cleavage mediated by PS1 (zeige PSEN1 Proteine)/gamma-secretase.
hair cells and supporting cells express nectin-1 (zeige PVRL1 Proteine) and -3, respectively; their interaction mediates the heterotypic adhesion between these 2 cell types; nectin-1 (zeige PVRL1 Proteine) and -3 promote the formation of the checkerboard-like pattern of the auditory epithelia
Results suggest that heterophilic interaction between nectin-1 (zeige PVRL1 Proteine) and nectin-3 recruits desmosomal junctions, and that these are required for proper enamel formation.
nectin-afadin system plays essential roles in coupling cell-cell adhesion and the cortical actin scaffold in spermatids at Sertoli-spermatid junctions and in subsequent sperm morphogenesis
This gene encodes a member of the nectin family of proteins, which function as adhesion molecules at adherens junctions. This family member interacts with other nectin-like proteins and with afadin, a filamentous actin-binding protein involved in the regulation of directional motility, cell proliferation and survival. This gene plays a role in ocular development involving the ciliary body. Mutations in this gene are believed to result in congenital ocular defects. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Wangari, our IECM cow, has some exciting news. Yesterday, she was inseminated by sperm from a Fresian bull named Thunder. Currently, Wangari is our only cow and she is producing about 12 liters of milk a day for the children on the malnutrition ward. It is our hope that two cows can provide for the daily needs of the children on the ward (around 40 liters of milk). When the calf is born in about nine months, the milk production of Wangari will increase. Her calf will stay with us and looked after by our herdsman until the age of one, when it will be sold. Rearing a calf until age one can fetch the best price, but is also a risk as calves are more susceptible to illness in the first year.
The hope for sustaining the cow program is to maintain two cows and two calves. Money raised from the sale of the calves will be invested back into the program to pay for vet fees, herdsman's salary, and other miscellaneous expenses. Maintaining cows to produce enough milk for the needs of the pediatric ward have been challenging. Currently, our pasture is being shared with cows from a local convent and the grazing space is not enough for all of the cows and calves. The diet of our cows has been supplemented with matooke and banana leaves. However, the nutritional value is not enough. An imminent solution to increasing the food supply for our cows is essential, especially with a new calf on the way!

India ups pressure on Apple to approve anti-spam app
Apple's refusal to approve India's anti-spam app could cause problems for the company's efforts to expand its sales in the country, Bloomberg reports. Apple has thus far refused to make the Telecom Regulatory Authority's app — which blocks annoying unsolicited calls and texts — available on the App Store, drawing the ire of the TRAI's leadership. Apple doesn't permit third-party apps to access SMS details and call records, which are necessary for the app to function, but the TRAi is currently taking public comments ahead of drafting new policies about how much control users have over their personal information.
Plex adds location support for personal photo libraries
Plex has enhanced its photo library features to include support for geotagged photos, allowing users to see their photos organized by the location where they were taken — provided, of course, they were captured with a GPS-enabled device. With the latest version of Plex Media Server, location data is now read from photos, allowing users to see the locations where photos were taken and automatically grouping them into virtual albums based on location. Related photos and albums can also now be automatically discovered based on location, so users can see what other photos in their library were taken in the same place, regardless of when they were taken.
Amazon Prime tvOS app may not launch until after Apple's September event
According to Recode, Amazon's Apple TV app may not be ready in time for it to debut alongside the new 4K Apple TV next month. Although Apple only said it would be coming "later this year" when it announced Amazon Prime for the tvOS platform, many assumed it would be logical for Amazon to have the app ready to rollout for September's event, particularly with Apple expected to debut a new Apple TV. The latest information from Recode, included as a footnote to an article discussing today's earlier news about 4K content, indicates simply that its sources "say the app may not be live in time for next month's product launch," although it's unclear if this actually represents any change to Amazon's plans for launching the Amazon Prime tvOS app.
Apple expands 'App Development with Swift' curriculum to over 30 Community Colleges
Apple has announced that, starting this fall, its App Development with Swift curriculum will be offering in over 30 community colleges through the United States. Designed by engineers and educators at Apple, the full-year course is geared toward students with no programming experience, taking them to the point of building fully-functional apps of their own design for the macOS and iOS platforms.
Promise Technology releases Apollo Cloud 2 Duo personal cloud system
For those who enjoy the benefits of the cloud but are more than a little wary of trusting their data to third-parties, Promise Technology has released the Apollo cloud storage device to combine the benefits of the cloud combined with keeping data safely inside the home. The Apollo Cloud 2 Duo provides 8TB of space split between two surveillance-class hard drives that can be accessed remotely with a dedicated app, all with no subscription fees. Up to 40 members can have access to the system and time-limited links can also provide access to files with outside users. Photos uploaded to the system can be sorted using facial recognition and/or location, making it simpler to find photos of specific people or places. The device is available now for $449 and is compatible with iOS and macOS operating systems.
Group of Chinese developers launch antitrust complaint over App Store policies
A group of Chinese developers has filed a complaint against Apple alleging that the company has violated antitrust regulations in that country, Reuters reports. The group consisting of 28 developers is being represented by the Beijing-Based law firm Dare & Sure, and is accusing Apple of charging excessive fees and arbitrarily removing apps from the Chinese App Store without explanation. According to Lin Wei, an attorney at the firm, "During its localization process Apple has run into several antitrust issues ... after an initial investigation we consulted a number of enterprises and got a very strong response." The law firm extends an invitation to developers in April to participate in the lawsuit, which was filed on Tuesday with China's two anti-trust regulators — the State Administration for Industry and Commerce and the National Development and Reform Commission. The law firm did not provide any details on which developers are involved in the complaint.
Unreal Engine updated with basic ARKit support
The latest version of Unreal Engine includes some basic support for Apple's new ARKit, which the accompanying blog post calls "an early, experimental version." The plug-in is based on the work done by director Peter Jackson's Wingnut AR studio and will allow developers to get familiar with the new features before official support begins with the release of iOS 11 in the fall. Unreal Engine has been a popular platform for game creation since it was introduced in 1998, and we first made available on iOS in September 2010. [via AppleInsider]
Plex expands Live TV support, time shifting to Apple TV
After making its Live TV function available in beta on iOS in June, Plex has taken it out of beta and expanded Live TV support to the Apple TV as well, according to an update from the company. The company's Plex DVR feature for recording and watching programs is also officially out of beta on iOS, but according to a company spokesperson users will still need to use the iOS, web, or Android apps to schedule recordings, after which they can be viewed on the Apple TV in the same way as any other media item in the Plex library.
Apple dumps hundreds of binary trading apps after fraud complaints
After an intervention by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission, Apple has pulled more than 300 binary trading apps from the App Store, Bloomberg reports. The ASIC made the request to both Apple and Google after uncovering numerous cases of fraud where unlicensed products beyond the reach of regulators prevented consumers from withdrawing cash from their accounts or losing money on the live app after making "winning trades 9 times out of 10 in the demonstration app." Apple recently updated its developer guidelines to prohibit new apps that facilitate binary options trading, but didn't comment on discussions with the ASIC. Of the 330 that have been verified as removed, the ASIC said "80 percent had no warnings about the risks inherent in trading."
Apple pulls VPN apps from China's App Store over new government rules
Creators of VPN apps like ExpressVPN have been notified that their apps have been removed from China's App Store. China greatly restricts the content its citizens have access to on the internet, making VPN services popular for users trying to circumvent what has come to be called The Great Firewall. Apple told developers their apps has been removed because they included "content that is illegal in China," adding in a statement to 9to5Mac that the Chinese MIIT requires VPN providers to obtain a special license before they're allowed to be sold. [via 9to5Mac]
Apple Store app now supports payments via Touch ID
Apple has updated its Apple Store app for iOS, adding the ability to use Touch ID to authorize payments and make changes to account information. Although Apple originally added Touch ID support to the Apple Store app back in 2015, the feature was originally limited to viewing orders, accessing EasyPay receipts, and making online reservations at an Apple Store, and still required the user to enter their Apple ID password to access stored payment information or actually place orders.
Tim Hortons launches Mobile Order and Pay, with Apple Pay support
Iconic Canadian fast food chain Tim Hortons has launched its new Mobile Order and Pay feature, following several months of testing that began this past spring. A new Tim Hortons app has been release on the App Store for the new service, replacing the older "TimmyMe" app that was previously used to manage Tim Hortons store card payments. The new app will allow existing users of the TimmyMe app to seamlessly transfer their balances to the new app, which will allow users to place orders from their nearest Tim Hortons and pay for them directly in the app. Users can log into the app using Facebook, Google, or an e-mail address, and payment can be made from an existing Tim Hortons card or directly from any supported in-app payment method using Apple Pay. Although Mobile Order and Pay is far from new — Starbucks debuted the feature in 2015 in the U.S., bringing it to Canada early last year — Tim Hortons eclipses Starbucks in Canada, making the feature a huge boon to Canadian iPhone users, particularly in light of its support for making direct payments via Apple Pay rather than via an intermediary store card.

Google to merge Play Music and YouTube Red into a unified service
Google is planning on merging its Google Play Music streaming service with its YouTube Red to create a single unified streaming offering, The Verge reports. The news came during a panel session for the New Music Seminar conference in New York, where YouTube music chief Lyor Cohen stated that Google needed to merge the two services so that customers would better understand their offerings, as well as bringing in new subscribers. Although Google Play Music and YouTube Red have long offered a unified subscription plan — users with a paid subscription to one service automatically gain access to the other — Cohen acknowledges that marketing the two services separately has been confusing and prevented YouTube Red from being more popular with music users. Cohen didn't comment on what would happen in terms of the individual iOS apps for the services, but it seems likely that there will remain at least some distinction between the two apps.
Adobe accidentally reveals Nimbus photo editing app for Mac
After announcing its Nimbus photo editing app last year, Adobe accidentally made it available to some Creative Cloud users, MacG reports. Those who downloaded it discovered that Nimbus users will have 1TB of cloud storage, much more than the 20GB offered to current Creative Cloud subscribers, ostensibly to make sure that there's enough space for users to truly make use of cloud-based photo editing that stores both photos and edits for use from multiple devices. The app's search function also automatically recognizes the content of images, reducing the need to manually tag every photo. Adobe has admitted that it released the development version to "a small group of Creative Cloud customers" and has since taken the app down with no word on when it will be publicly available. [via 9to5Mac]
Apple adds new 'Customer Support' role for App Developers
Apple has added a new "Customer Support" role to the iTunes Connect portal for app developers, allowing companies to provide designated representatives with the ability to respond to customer reviews on the App Store. The new role complements the change earlier this year that allowed app developers to begin responding to reviews on the App Store. Previously, only members of the developer's team with the Legal, Admin, App Manager, or Marketer roles had the ability to respond to customer reviews; this new more specific role allows developers to more easily delegate this task to other members of their team without the need to provide unnecessary extra privileges.
Google Play Music gains CarPlay support
Google's Play Music app has quietly gained CarPlay support in a recent update, allowing users of the streaming music service to more easily access and play content from their dashboard in a CarPlay-enabled vehicle. The addition of CarPlay support isn't listed in Google Play Music's release notes, so it's unclear when the feature actually became available, but the addition of the feature was discovered and reported on reddit yesterday. Although Apple generally restricts what apps can be made available via the CarPlay interface — mapping apps seem to be excluded, for instance — support for audio apps has been available to third-party developers since CarPlay first debuted, and even Spotify, which competes directly with Apple Music, has had a place on the CarPlay dashboard since almost the very beginning, suggesting that the late addition of CarPlay support for Play Music has more to do with Google dragging its feet than any restrictions on Apple's part. [via MacRumors]
Apple updates 'Clips' app with Disney and Pixar content
Apple has released an update to Clips, the video app that the company debuted earlier this year designed to help users easily create videos fro their photos, music, and video clips. The new version adds content from Disney and Pixar, allowing users to include Mickey, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Daisy Duck, as well as popular characters from Toy Story and Inside Out. New Disney-designed posters have also been included that can be added to videos as title cards, joining 10 new Apple-designed overlays and 12 posters. The update also makes improvements to Live Title editing, sharing, and provides other fixes to streamline the creation process.
Nintendo launches companion iOS app for Switch console
Nintendo has launched a companion iOS app for its Switch console, aimed at improving the gaming experience by making it more social. The app provides the ability to check leader boards for some games, invite others to play and even provides a voice chat option to be used while playing a game together. Users will need a Switch console, a Nintendo account and the supported games to make use of the app, which is free for now but will become part of a paid subscription service at some point next year.
Apple cracks down on ad blockers that affect other apps
Future Mind, maker of VPN-based ad block programs like AdBlock, Weblock and Admosphere, has been informed by Apple that the company is "no longer allowing VPN/root certificate-based ad blockers on the App Store and will not be accepting updates of existing ad blockers that use those techniques going forward," MacRumors reports. Tomasz Koperski, CTO of Future Mind, said Apple rejected the latest update for AdBlock for iOS, writing in its rejection that the app "uses a VPN profile or root certificate to block ads or other content in a third-party app, which is not allowed on the App Store." The app is still available on the App Store — along with many other ad blockers — but Apple "has officially changed their policy regarding VPN/root certificate based ad blockers on the App Store and is no longer accepting updates of apps, which directly block content in third party apps."
'Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow' game lands on iOS June 29
'Futurama' fans who have been waiting for new stories set in that universe since the show went off the air will get their wish on June 29, when Jam City and FoxNext Games release 'Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow' for iOS. The free-to-play game combines "simulation, combat, galactic exploration, and choose-your-own-adventure gameplay" to tell a new set of stories featuring the Planet Express crew, and the stories were created in collaboration with the show's original writers and executive producers Matt Groening and David X. Cohen. In keeping with the show's quirky cameos, geek icons Stephen Hawking, George Takei, Bill Nye, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson are all featured in the promo trailer and are actually playable charaters in the game, each with their own unique storyline. Registering for updates on the game's launch will net users a free in-game gift.

For this week's Trendrr charticle -- a collaboration between Advertising Age and social-media tracking service Trendrr -- I decided to look at two of the most tweet-worthy franchises in pop culture right now. A few notes:
- First, some background: Last December I called Fox's "Glee" the "Most Twitter-Worthy Sitcom of the Year" because of the sheer volume of "sharp, subversively funny lines the writers cram into each episode" -- which fans then retweet with, well, glee. (I cited some of my favorite lines from the first season, including "That was the most offensive thing I've seen in 20 years of teaching, and that includes an elementary-school production of 'Hair'" and "I'm gonna say this as nice as I can, but you look like a sad-clown hooker.") But in its second season "Glee" seems less about the tweet-worthy lines and more about high-profile theme shows, from the Britney Spears episode to last night's "The Rocky Horror Glee Show" (which Rolling Stone's Erica Futterman just called " the show's best theme episode so far."
- What's that emphasis on theme shows doing? For one thing, it seems to be making "Glee" fans less tweet-happy. "Glee" has averaged 143,563 tweets a day for each new episode since its premiere on Tuesday, Sept. 21 (the heavily-hyped Britney Spears episode scored nearly 300,00 tweets in one day) -- but lately it's been barely cracking 100,000. Last night's Rocky Horror episode, for instance, prompted 94,701 mentions of "Glee" by the end of the day.
- Just to put things in perspective, though: The biggest movie in the U.S. right now, "Paranormal Activity 2," was mentioned on Twitter (with or without the "2") 141,271 times on its peak day -- Oct. 22 -- which puts it slightly below the "Glee" season average to date.
- "Paranormal Activity 2," by the way, with its production budget of $3 million, has already grossed $65 million worldwide in less than a week, according to Box Office Mojo.
- The top five markets tweeting about last night's "Glee": L.A., Chicago, Atlanta, D.C. and Philadelphia, in that order.
- The top five markets tweeting bout "Paranormal Activity 2" on its opening day (Oct. 22): New York, L.A., Toronto, Houston and San Diego, in that order.
- I hereby humbly propose a Very Special Episode of "Glee": "Paranormal Glee." Man, I would tweet the hell out of that.

Celebrities are people just like the rest of us, but that doesn't mean that they're immune to the same ups and downs that plague the rest of us! In fact, sometimes it seems like celebs have even bigger problems than the rest of the population… but maybe that's just the effect of the spotlight. Either way, here are some celebrities whose epic love stories actually turned out to be tales of total tragedy!
Phil Hartman and Brynn Hartman
Born in Canada, Phil Hartman was well-loved thanks to the eight years he spent making audiences laugh with his hilarious impressions on Saturday Night Live. However, his personal life wasn't nearly as funny! Hartman was married three times during his life, and his third wife was a mentally unstable drug addict named Brynn Omdahl. In 1998, Omdahl shot Hartman while he slept, and then committed suicide a few hours later! So much for 'happily ever after'.

The Reef Rescuers Project
Our coral reef restoration project addresses Climate Change and it's impact. The marine environment is under severe threat from Climate Change, identified as the single most palpable threat to marine ecosystems. Its impact on coral reefs have been devastating. Corals in the Seychelles and the region have been destroyed by ocean warming and coral bleaching events, threatening the livelihoods of millions of coastal peoples in Eastern Africa and the Western Indian Ocean islands.
Coral bleaching interferes with reef's health and resilience capacity, harms coral's ability to regenerate, affects reproductive performances and increases disease prevalence. Our reef restoration project has been restoring damaged coral reefs by growing different coral species in nurseries and transplanting them onto degraded sites.
The project began in 2010 with the financial support of United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Further financial support was received under the Government of Seychelles-Global Environment Facility (GEF)-United Nations Dvelopment Project (UNDP) Protected Area Project in 2011.
Through the project we are piloting the first-ever large scale active reef restoration project in the region using 'coral gardening'. Coral gardening involves collecting small pieces of healthy coral, raising them in underwater nurseries and then transplanting them to degraded sites that have been affected by coral bleaching. 50,000 fragments of coral have been raised in underwater nurseries and a further 15,000 transplanted in degraded areas. The long-term "success" of this mass transplantation is yet to be monitored but the project has already had a very positive knowledge-building impact: 30 scientific divers were involved and trained on reef restoration techniques. A tool kit has been developed which highlights the lessons learnt from the project and a Business Plan will be developed to ensure project sustainability. The first ever Reef Rescuers Training program was a success with eight trainees from different parts of the world successfully completing the eight week training program

From Where to Buy a Silver Plated Wine Cooler
Many people are highly fascinated with buying unique gifts for various occasions. They want to pick personalized gifts that are not only unique but functional too. They want their gift to be highly appreciated by the person receiving it.
With people turning to the internet for their shopping needs, the trend of online buying is accelerating fast. But what most people are also stuck with is to spot a genuine seller of unique gifts online in India. There is a plethora of online stores, but which one will offer you the quality that you are looking for is a question to be answered.
One of my friends wanted to gift his cousin a unique gift for his 10th anniversary. I offered him lots of options but what struck him the most was giving a silver plated gift. A silver or silver plated gift can be a wine cooler to chill your exquisite wine or it can be an ice bucket too. People who are usually fond of sipping wine on any occasion or even no occasion really appreciate the idea of presenting their wine in silver. A chilled wine helps to accentuate its taste, thus offering a sense of fulfillment to the consumer. A wine cooler is available in different materials, but when it is about giving a unique gift, a silver plated wine cooler is what you need to put your hands on. He was highly delighted with the idea, but was unsure of whether his willingness to spend on this luxury item would be complimented with a high quality product or not.
Since he was short of time and had no days to spare on research of finding a genuine silver products seller of unique gifts online in India, I shared my experience of buying a silver-plated serving bowl for my mom on her birthday from Episodesilver.com. The site has an enormous collection of sterling silver and silver-plated unique gift items, but my mom being fond of collecting unique serving platters & bowls, I decided to pick one for her from Episodesilver.com. You name it and they have it on their online store. Their sterling silver products are made of international standard 925 Sterling silver. The silver-plated products are made from real silver plating and are of high quality. Their huge collection of personalized gifts is also very impressive. So my friend made a wise decision and ordered for his genuine quality silver-plated aurum from Episodesilver.com, right from the comfort of his home and for a price within the budget.
