Roundworm: Treatment and Prevention
Most cats will contract roundworms at some time during their lives—it's a common parasite that can be easily treated.
Cats contract roundworms by eating another animal that is infected—like an insect or mouse—or from another cat via feces, typically in a shared litterbox. Kittens contract it from the milk of an infected mother and are particularly vulnerable to the effects. If you suspect your kitten has been exposed, have him or her seen by your vet immediately.
Once the roundworm parasite is ingested, it resides in the cat's digestive system, then passes through the intestines and emerges in the feces. The worms will be visible in the feces and have a noodle-like appearance. Other symptoms of a roundworm infection include vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, weight loss or a distended belly.
Although roundworm is deposited in a cat's stomach, it can spread to other organs. And infections left untreated can be fatal. Fortunately, testing for and treating roundworm is fairly simple: Your vet will use a fecal test to determine the presence of the parasite, and if the test is positive, your cat will be given an oral deworming pill. Two or three rounds of deworming medication may be required.
Clean litterboxes can help prevent a recurrence of roundworm. Monthly flea medications can also help—some are created to kill roundworm larvae in addition to preventing fleas. Kittens should be given deworming medication until they are a year old, so talk to your vet about what to use and how often.

K-Toon: Green Gu Virus, episode 2
I probably shouldn't read the Facebook comments about my toons, but I do. And some of them bugged me so much I'm going to address them INSIDE of today's episode.
But first, I was really curious about our lead's, (Kim Jung Hwa played by Lee Kwang Soo) backstory. So I wrote & drew it and that is what we get to see first in today's episode.
Like always, if you're new to Green Gu Virus, here is a link to episode Episode One so you can see what has happened in this drama before today. . .
As I said last week, one of the perks of doing a drama toon is that my actors can play themselves as kids. In today's episode, Kwang Soo shows his dramatic chops by playing himself from four to seven years old. Wow! Tell me another drama where an actor does that! Big props to him!
And now, here's today's episode:
How sad, huh? His parents stick around looking for him and at the same time, he looks for them. As time went on, his parents got more and more discouraged. Everyone told them to continue was hopeless. Eventually, they booked plane fare back to Korea. On their last day, their last hour in Africa they noticed a bunch of giraffes being herded by a jungle boy. "How sweet they are being to him," marveled Mrs. Kim. An elderly woman told her what she knew about the strange feral child.
So Jung Hwa went back to Korea. His life had been forever changed, though, from his three years with the giraffes.
STOP THE DRAMA! This is where I'm ending it today. Sorry if you're really curious about Min Ho or Suzy's back story. Because I have to address the negative comments I've been getting. So many people are complaining about how plain Suzy looks in this toon. WELL DUH! It's her character! Have you whiners never watched a Korean Drama? What about Coffee Prince?
Well, that's it for this episode. Because I had to reply to all my haters, I couldn't even really get to Suzy, Min Ho, or Yu In Young's back stories. I suppose we'll have to wait until next time. So stay "tooned!"

Rocko Special Moves On
I can share these thumbnails from the Rocko Special board since we cut the scenes out later on. The project is under strict control after all. This was a scene where Spunky becomes radioactive after drinking a power drink. Poor Spunky.
What I can share is that the details are getting closely watched. We are painting the backgrounds traditionally rather than digitally. There is actually pencils and paper getting used ( which is a rarity these days). I'm enjoying working for Nickelodeon where I didn't think I would, and my crew is full of superstars and future superstars.
Flying to Washington DC in a couple weeks to finish up details for the Luna Production. Want to get in there before Trump comes in and paints the White House gold.

Humber River (Ontario)
Encompassing 908 km2 in total, the Humber River watershed is the largest in the Toronto region. The 126-kilometre long Humber River has its headwaters in the ancient rock of the NIAGARA ESCARPMENT and the glacial hills of the Oak Ridges Moraine.
The Humber is in the backyard of nearly six million people, a river that flows through the most densely populated area of Canada but still retains many of its natural values. Today, approximately 45% of the watershed is urban or urbanizing, and 55% of the watershed is rural. The river is being protected and restored with the help of many individuals, groups and agencies who share a common vision of an ecologically healthy river oasis in an increasingly urbanized area. The vision is slowly being fulfilled, as brook trout thrive in the river's headwaters and its wetlands ring with the choruses of birds and frogs. A system of trails along its course maintains the spirit of the Toronto Carrying Place Trail, the historic overland route from Lake Ontario to the interior followed by Aboriginal peoples and then European explorers and settlers. In 1999 the river was designated as a CANADIAN HERITAGE RIVER.

Souter Doesn't Like His JobClosed Published by Kedar S. Bhatia September 4th, 2007 in David Souter, Judges and Justices
The blogs have been abuzz with this article from the Examiner about David Souter's problems on the Court.
We've known for some time now that David Souter hasn't been enjoying his tenure on the Court. Justice Souter started out as a conservative Justice but has since converted into a card-carrying member of the Court's liberal wing.
Justice Souter's increasing displeasure with the court has serious political implications for Washington. It was wildly believed that Justices Ginsburg and Stevens would seriously consider exiting the Court under if a democrat wins the '08 elections. If we add Justice Souter to the list, the democrats could reinforce their position on the court for the next 30 years. Conversely, if the Republicans win the Presidency and all three of these Justices step down, the Court will have seven firmly conservative Justices and one right-leaning member with Justice Kennedy. In this scenario, Justice Breyer would be left to battle his conservative colleagues alone for at least 15 years.
I think its interesting that at least 2 of the 9 Justices are miserable. Justice Thomas isn't particularly fond of the limelight (or the english language) which makes the Court a uniquely awkward experience for him. I would be surprised if 22% of Presidents haven't liked their jobs and I would be truly shocked to find out that 22% of Congressmen dislike theirs.
So why do Supreme Court Justices hate their job so much?

Karl Henry believes Wolverhampton Wanderers can reproduce their four-midable show at Bristol City and start to dominate teams in the Championship.
The Wolves skipper, who returned to the starting eleven after a three game ban at Ashton Gate, says Stale Solbakken's side must build on the 4-1 victory.
Wolves face Blues on Saturday evening (5.20pm) and Henry said: "Let's face it, we should be able to play like that and win games in this division.
"We should be able to dominate games and especially at Molineux.
"But our home form hasn't been anywhere near good enough so far.
"We had a great performance on Saturday but need to carry that on now and get another four or five great performances.
"There are always going to be games where performance levels drop – that is inevitable.
"But we need to make sure we've strung together three, four or five good performances before a dip."
Henry says the win at Bristol City blew away the cobwebs of a frustrating nine game winless run:
"It is only one game but it was a good performance," he said.
"The first half in particular was far more like us and not how we have been during the recent run.
"After everything that has happened the manager had wanted us to start brightly and start well and go and press them.
"We did exactly that and I think the plan worked well.
"It was enjoyable to play in and I am sure it was enjoyable for the fans whose support was non-stop during the afternoon. It was nice to see them happy and cheering after recent results."
The firepower of Kevin Doyle, Sylvan Ebanks-Blake, Bakary Sako and Bjorn Sigurdarson worked well and bodes well for the future.
"We all worked really hard as a team and the front four were excellent," he said.
"I don't think it's a position that Bjorn is used to playing but he was great.
"He was closing people down, running around and 'ratting' as we would say, and when he got on the ball showed some great quality.
"He's got so much power as well.
"When he opens his legs up he can just glide past people and he was very dangerous on Saturday.
"I think it was quite scary to see those front four combining together so well and hopefully that can carry on."
Henry admits losing Dave Edwards is a 'real blow' with the midfielder out for as long as eight weeks with a torn hamstring.
"Eddo has been in good form and I enjoyed playing in there with him on Saturday," he said.
"Hopefully he will be back quickly.
"But we've got options in the centre of midfield whether with Dave Davis or Tongo who should be available again as well.
"And Kevin Foley can also play in there as well - he's done the job before and is a natural footballer who can operate anywhere on the pitch.
"We'll try and continue to play well whoever is picked but hopefully Eddo will be back as soon as he can be."
Henry is wary of an inconsistent Blues: "It is going to be a tough game.
"We've had some great battles with Birmingham over the last few years and I am sure this will be another one.
"It's one to look forward to.
"It's a local derby and the ground should be rocking with the atmosphere and it could be a tense occasion.
"It is an opportunity for us because if we can go out and win a second successive game it will start to build some momentum."

Eucalyptus is well-known for its clearing and anti-septic properties and is thus extremely useful during the winter months. Eucalyptus Radiata has a sweeter, more rounded aroma and is less likely to irritate the skin than the more common Eucalyptus Globulus.
Eucalyptus is well-known for its clearing and anti-septic properties and is thus extremely useful during the winter months. It can be very effective in a steam inhalation to help congestion.
Blended with Citronella or Cedarwood in an oil burner, Eucalyptus can help maintain an insect-free BBQ! Alternatively, try the lemon-scented Eucalyptus Citriodora as a very powerful natural insect-repellent.
Method of Extraction:
The oil is steam distilled from the fresh or partly dried, long and narrow leaves of the tree.
Main Theraputic Properties:
Antibacterial, Anticatarrhal, Antifungal, Antiviral, Immune tonic, Antirheumatic.
Try adding 2 drops Eucalyptus, 1 drop Roman Chamomile and 1 drop Lavender to a bowl of just-boiled water. Lean over the bowl (not too close) with a towel covering your head and inhale the vapours for a few minutes. Alternatively, blend the same oils in two teaspoons of Sweet Almond oil and massage into the chest and back.

In context: George Allen's comments on government waste
Majority PAC, and advocacy group supporting Democratic candidates, has a new TV ad that predicts Republican George Allen will cut Social Security and Medicare if he's elected to the U.S. Senate.
The commercial opens with footage of an elderly woman in a wheelchair and this jarring statement: "He called programs like Medicare and Social Security a waste."
Then there's footage of Allen saying, "Whatever the government program is, no matter how essential it is, it's waste."
The announcer says, "And that's exactly the plan George Allen will take to Washington. Slashing Medicare, cutting Social Security and eliminating 700,000 jobs, all to pay for more tax cuts for millionaires."
The ad is based on a rambling interview Allen had with Charles Payne of Fox News on Dec. 22, 2009. It starts with Payne asking Allen to comment on an inspector general's report that found the U.S. Postal Service spent $792,000 on food and entertainment over five months.
We decided not to do a Truth-O-Meter on this ad because there's no doubt Allen said all government programs are waste. But we suspect Allen misspoke and intended to say is that there's waste in all government programs -- a position he has long held.
Here's a transcript of the interview. We'll let you decide:
Payne: Well, it's billions in the red, but still spending your green. The U.S. Postal Service caught springing for parties, movies, even booze, on taxpayer money. A government watchdog identifying nearly $800,000 in quote "imprudent spending." My next guest is concerned this is just a preview of coming attractions if the government takes over health care.
George Allen, former governor of Virginia, joins us now. Wow -- this is -- I mean, listen, the post office is losing a lot of money to begin with and yet they can spring for stuff like this?
Allen: Yeah, Charles, you know, most Americans recognize that whatever the government program is, no matter how essential it is, it's waste. There's constant waste in it and, you know, here they are eating all sorts of things, expensive meals and all the rest. And here folks that are working for a living and their money is confiscated in taxes to pay for these sort of things -- it's just galling. In fact, they found they're having crab cakes and beef Wellington. Meanwhile, we're all eating cupcakes and beef jerky. And --
Payne: Golly, I can tell you, I've -- I've never even had beef Wellington before. But tell us though, now how do you make the connection -- do you think they're going to do the same thing with this health care -- it'll be just one giant pot of money for parties?
Allen: Sure -- well, I'm not saying they're going to have parties. They're going to have waste in it. But what are we getting, Charles? Those of us in it. What we're getting hit with is higher taxes, we're getting higher premium costs. You're seeing, for the states, they have unfunded mandates to it. You're going to have, generally speaking, a lower standard of health care while the social engineers and these elites in Washington are imposing this on the American people. And it's something that's going to be harmful to small businesses, job growth, and on top of it all, it's an experiment. It's a health care experiment that's going to cost $1 trillion that we don't have and the last thing we need is more debt for these sort of experiments. The people of America need personal responsibility and freedom, not dependency on the government.

"It doesn't really mean anything when you take a step back and look at the bigger picture."
The voice, distinct and clear, belonged to a Lupita Nyong'o lookalike and it cut through the rising hubbub of the venue.
Her group, smaller, but much more spirited than ours, was a smorgasbord of dandy characters.
"Never buy into the idea that one individual cannot make a difference, talk less when we are discussing about the world's most powerful individual," said the guy with the Einstein haircut.
Eavesdropping has always been one of my many social flaws, but today, I was literally on fire, with my blazing ears. The mind-numbing topic on my table left me with no choice.
Besides, the whole world is talking about the choice made by the American electorate a few months ago and very few topics have captured global attention as this particular outcome. Never has the idiom; between the devil and the deep blue sea, rang so true.
The venue was now filled to the brim. As the conversations bumped into each other and laughter and discourse filled the air, I suddenly remembered the real reason for my presence here.
"So, tell me about this guy of yours then," I said, elbowing my friend.
"Ah yes, you are going to love him. Let me just get this thing up and running," she said, as she fumbled with her tablet.
She was right. The piece of work she was sharing with me was not only engaging, it was endless in beauty.
Oh, did I mention I was in Lagos, Nigeria?
I love coming back every now and then, to explore the new energy flowing in from the new class of returning Diasporas, who have abandoned Western comforts for the raw dynamism of Africa's biggest economic hub. Their brewing optimism combined with the resident creative bravado of the locals, has produced a vibrancy unseen here for a long time.
"He goes by the alias Logor, and is a fabulous creative talent. This recent work is ample evidence. Now, the world needs to know what is happening here."
Ten minutes later, still mulling over a credible strategy and a viable offer to move negotiations forward, an impeccably dressed gentleman joined our table, shaking hands vigorously with my friend as he sat down. It turns out he is also here to see work of other emerging talents, with the sole aim of returning to London, with a few clients on his register.
"This is the new economic Wild West, but there's no one dying. All the blood is on canvasses, in images and print," he quipped.
My friend nodded in agreement; "five years ago this artist was selling his pieces for two hundred and fifty dollars tops. Today, his pieces are going for five thousand and that is one of the modest ones. It's the only thing bucking the trend!"
"Maybe Trump will buck the trend," I whispered.
Admittedly, it was a clumsy return to the original conversation, but one that allowed me attempt distraction from a subtle bidding war. My debonair rival, was outstripping me with every nod as he flicked through the chunky portfolios.
"I really hope so," he replied, with his head still buried in the goodies.
"When you can have Obama's Vice-President calling Africa a nation, maybe a change of direction wouldn't hurt. For an individual with African blood running their veins, Obama has been an abject letdown, It was a golden opportunity for Africa, one that I believe will take a while to return. A Trump presidency cannot be any worse, in my humble opinion. Remember, there has been no better friend to Africa in the White House, than George W Bush!"
"When you can have Obama's Vice-President calling Africa a nation, maybe a change of direction wouldn't hurt. For an individual with African blood running their veins, Obama has been an abject letdown, It was a golden opportunity for Africa, one that I believe will take a while to return. A Trump presidency cannot be any worse, in my humble opinion. Remember, there has been no better friend to Africa in the White House, than George W Bush!"
It took a while for his words to sink in, but when they did, I did sympathise with his position. Here we are in a venue that could well be anywhere in the world, with superb ambiance, highly educated and sophisticated clientele. An Africa, with the fastest accelerating economies, and the Africa they never show on television.
In today's Lagos, with all its challenges, business is brisk and products of local citadels of learning and the Ivy league, jostle for contention, whilst bouncing ideas around with jocularity. A cheerfulness etched with a steely tinge of unerring professionalism. This scene is replicated across many African cities and still, the rest of the world has not been let into the secret.
I begin to wonder whose job it is to make it happen.
Looking through Logor's monochrome pictures, it was as clear as black and white.

Wuthering Heights
Masterpiece Classic
What qualities make a successful adaptation of a classic novel for you? Are you a purist who dislikes any deviation from the sacred text? Or will you tolerate variations on the plot if the innate nature of the novel is not harmed?
Stories of episodic nature with easily classifiable characters seem to do well as screenplays--the work of Charles Dickens comes to mind. Wuthering Heights on the other hand is a story without category, defying conventional narrative structure, acted out by characters of ambiguous motivations. A variation of some sort seems almost necessary to provide the audience with a clear telling of this complex novel. I was therefore curious to see how the new Masterpiece Theater adaptation would play out.
Part I begins at a seemingly random scene: young Linton Heathcliff's arrival at Wuthering Heights. After a few minutes, however, it starts to make sense. Like many Wuthering Heights adaptations, the double narration of the book has been stripped.
It is therefore unnecessary to introduce Mr Lockwood or Nelly Dean before we get to Linton's return and the avalanche of misfortunes that the second generation experiences. This adaptation gives us a small taste of what is going on in present day--what Heathcliff and Edgar Linton have become and the legacy they are pushing onto their children--before it takes us back to the story of the first generation.
Heathcliff and Catherine, played by Tom Hardy and Charlotte Riley, are truly enjoyable to watch and work well together on screen. Tom Hardy especially proves himself worthy of playing that devil-man creation. He is brutal, conniving, and haunted; he plays both degraded stable boy and wealthy gentleman with ease.
Another great performance is Burn Gorman as Hindley. Masterpiece Theatre regulars will remember him as Guppy in Bleak House.
Hindley's character is very true to the book as the ruthless and then utterly destroyed older brother.
Heathcliff and Hindley make clearer something that I found lacking in the other characters of this adaptation. While superbly acted, they seemed like diluted versions of their fiery book counterparts. To truly enjoy Emily Brontë's masterpiece, one has to take a queer pleasure in reading about people destroying themselves and those around them. I believe there isn't one character in the book that escapes from doing something despicable. Saintly Nelly Dean even has her moments. Not here.
Catherine is sympathetic and not innately self-destructive. It seems like her fate is sealed by obsessive devotion rather than vengeful conceit. Young Linton Heathcliff shows none of his detestable selfishness of the novel. Young Cathy makes one rude remark to Hareton then then immediately repents. And Joseph, the character I had grown to love in the book as a the black-humor comic relief, says a mere two rude and unintelligible lines.
I am sure there are viewers of this version for whom Heathcliff and Hindley provide quite enough conflict and anguish for one sitting. Perhaps some will enjoy the slight reprieve from Emily Brontë's brutish rendering of chaos on the moors. Admittedly, toning down the violence and stepping up the sex does have an appeal. The romance is heightened, making the doomed love of Catherine and Heathcliff more understandable to the modern audience, especially for those not familiar with the book.
So if you aren't a purist when it comes to adaptations and can overlook that some relationships are changed from the original, that some characters are actually innately good, and--maybe the strangest of all--that Nelly Dean never ages despite the passage of 30 years, then you'll surely enjoy this unique and charming retelling of Wuthering Heights.

A boring post
A few days a week I take pictures of Beckett to send to Nathan at the office. It makes it seem like he's more a part of our lives throughout the weekdays. So, I am going to post some pictures that I have taken of Beckett lately. Sorry, they're not great. Usually I just take them to show Nathan what Beckett is wearing for the day.
Here's Beckett on a 'cold' day last week. Bundled him up in this sweet little sweater and touque from Barneys New York that Nathan's company sent us.
And here he is sporting an awesome onesie that Logan and Paula sent us from their trip to NYC in December.
This is the sweet little face I woke up next to yesterday. He was so cute I couldn't help but take some pictures.
And here is the little bug right now. The third picture was his reaction to the bright flashes from the camera. Awake enough just to stretch, and then right back asleep.
Other than that, all is well. This next week will be a sad one, as I am headed home for my best friends wedding (that's not sad) but we have to leave Nathan here all by his lonesome for a whole week. We're going to miss daddy so much! But I am excited to be home and see my family and house. I also just found out yesterday that my sister Beth is going to come home for it as well, and just thinking about it makes me giddy.
Anyway...life is great and we're all doing very well. Hopefully Beckett gets better soon. We'll keep you posted.

Sweet Sweet Baby
On Saturday my friend Paige came over and took over 200 pictures of Beckett. It was so much fun to be creative with the photography, however, Beckett wasn't super cooperative, and about 90% of the pictures were of him crying. (Although, some of them were pretty dang cute.) He was a doll for a few minutes though, and we got a few good ones. The best are being saved for his birth announcement that I'm designing right now. If any of you don't think I have your address, please leave me a comment with it. I'll be sure to send you one.
Beckett is doing so well and continues to be our sweet little bug. (Don't you just want to kiss those cheeks!)

My Little Bug...
Carrie and Nick came to town last weekend and we had a great time hanging out, getting to know Nick. He's a pretty hilarious guy. He and Nathan bonded instantly, and Carrie and I had an awesome time just being together. I miss her...she lives too far away. I'm so grateful that they made the effort to come here and see us. This picture is taken at Jack Sprats--where Rachell works.

By James Grubel
CANBERRA (Reuters) - Around 400,000 first-time voters go into Australia's September elections with no idea of economic hardship, adding to Treasurer Wayne Swan's mounting problems as he delivers what is shaping up as his last, and most difficult, budget on Tuesday.
Swan is confronted by a slowing economy, a mining boom which is nearing its peak, falling tax revenue and a political promise to rein in spending, leaving him with no money to spend on pre-election handouts.
Instead, he wants the budget to focus on his economic credentials and hopes to win kudos by showing he can be a tough manager of government finances after delivering consecutive deficits since 2008-09, due to stimulus spending.
If he doesn't lay out a credible plan to return to surplus, the polls, already near record lows for the Labor government, could worsen ahead of elections set for September 14.
Australia's economy, unlike most other developed nations, kept growing in the aftermath of the 2008 global downturn. Australia has notched up 21 years of uninterrupted economic growth, helped by a mining boom fuelled by demand from China.
Yet voters give the government no credit for keeping the economy strong, due to a sense that Australia remains immune from global developments.
These include a generation of first-timers who have never experienced a recession and who make up around three percent of the electorate in Australia, where voting is compulsory.
Opinion polls point to a thumping defeat for Prime Minister Julia Gillard at the polls, with disgruntled first-time voters emerging as an important bloc given that Gillard won the last election in 2010 over the conservative opposition by fewer than 40,000 of the 13 million votes cast.
"The economy is not really much of an issue for me, no," said Adelaide student Alex Bachmatiuk, 19, who will vote for the first time in September.
Bachmatiuk said she was not concerned about whether the budget remains in deficit or returns to surplus, and added whatever is announced on Tuesday would be unlikely to change her plans to vote for the opposition.
Melbourne student Oliver Taylor, 18, said much the same, despite fierce political debate about government finances.
"The media's been reporting all sorts of things about Australia losing its surplus," Taylor said. "But I'm not overly worried about the surplus-deficit."
"I think the economy's in a lot of trouble, but I feel we'll just get out of trouble again," he said.
Both were more concerned about government plans for university funding than wider economic management, but accept there is little Swan can do to change their views.
Much of the tough medicine in the coming budget has already been released, including a slowing in the growth of Australia's foreign aid and plans to target tax perks for foreign companies.
In the past two weeks, it has also abandoned planned tax cuts to start from mid-2015, scrapped planned rises in payments to families, and announced a 0.5 percent rise in a health-care levy to help fund disability services.
The government has been hit by a $17 billion shortfall in forecast revenue since last November due to lower commodity prices and a high Australian dollar, forcing Swan to abandon his long-held promise to deliver a surplus for the year to June 30.
A Reuters poll of 13 market economists predicts Swan will unveil a deficit of around $17 billion this financial year, and $10 billion for 2013-14, down from around $44 billion last year.
The official forecast for economic growth is expected to be trimmed to 2.75 percent for the current year and 2013-14, down from the previous forecast of 3.0 percent each year and below the long-term trend of around 3.25 percent.
The official forecast, however, will be closer to the central bank's forecast of 2.5 percent this year and 2.5 to 3.5 percent the following year.
Yet things still look relatively rosy. Inflation is under control and the central bank last week cut official interest rates to a record low 2.75 percent.
Economists also say the final budget figures are unlikely to concern financial markets, which have plenty of appetite for Australian-issued debt.
"Despite the fiscal slippage, we expect the agencies to endorse Tuesday's budget, confirming Australia's AAA rating and stable outlook, underpinned by low net debt," said RBC economist Su-Lin Ong.
Economist Stephen Koukoulas, a one-time adviser to Gillard, said while Australia's economic indicators were among the best in the world, voters were still unwilling to give the government any credit.
"The fact we didn't get hurt so badly in the global financial crisis has created a sense of unrealistic optimism," Koukoulas told Reuters.
"I wouldn't swap our position here in Australia for most other countries. But the government is clearly getting no credit for it."

1. The Committee has requested the Department to
submit a Memorandum on the following points:
(2) Given the opening words of article 5 of
the Directive, explain why regulation 5 fails to specify a time
before which the verifications required by regulation 5(1) and
(2) are to be carried out.
(3) Paragraph (2) of regulation 8 states that,
subject to paragraphs (3) and (4), the Maritime and Coastguard
Agency must carry out the requisite survey in relation to any
vessel which: [(b)] subject to paragraph (3), changes management,
changes flag, or transfers class. Explain whether, in (b), the
reference to a paragraph (3) is meant to refer to paragraph (4),
and why the subjection is needed, given the opening words of paragraph
2. On point (1), the Department agrees that in regulations
4(1)(a) and 6(2)(a) the phrase "after 16 February 2001"
should have been drafted as "on or after 16 February 2001"
in order to implement the obligation in articles 4 and 6 of the
Directive at the earliest opportunity. As very few vessels enter
into service during winter months, it is not however considered
that the practical effect of the current drafting is likely to
be significant.
3. On point (2), the Department agrees that article
5 of the Directive requires the verifications mentioned in regulation
5(1) and (2) to be carried out either prior to a company's vessel
starting operations or by 1 December 2001 for a company's vessel
in operation at the date of the regulations coming into force,
and that the timing of this requirement has not been transcribed
into the Regulations. The Maritime and Coastguard Agency in applying
regulation 5 will comply with the timing required by the Directive,
and has clarified that timing in a Marine Guidance Notice and
in a letter to the companies known to be affected.
4. On point (3), the Department agrees that in regulation
8(2)(b) the phrase "subject to paragraph (3)" is superfluous,
apologises to the Committee and notes the point for the future.

Watch out planners, there's a new kid on the block eyeing up your jobs, and she comes in the form of 16-year old Lara Markham.
Lara will be the youngest delegate at the AFA's national conference this week. She's been thinking about financial planning as a career for the past 12 months, after a school assignment sparked her interest.
"We were given an assignment at school to research a career we would like to do. I had no idea so I picked financial planning because Mum likes her work and always says she meets lovely people."
She must have liked what she saw, because she's now looking at going to university and doing a Bachelor of business. The idea of meeting so many different people is a pretty attractive feature of the job for Lara, but it's not the only perk.
"I like the idea of wearing a 'lady suit' and high heels!" she says.
However, the financial planning profession can't get too excited about its new recruit just yet because there's another potential career pathway vying for the teenager's attention.
"I do cheerleading as a sport and my dream would be to move to America and do cheerleading over there for 12 months and win at worlds, but apparently that's not realistic," she says.
Lara's mum, Terese Markham is very excited that her daughter is considering following in her family's footsteps.
"Financial planning is a very big part of our family," she says. "My father, John Macey, joined the industry in 1971 and is still involved.
"She still has two years of school then uni so i'm trying not to get too excited just yet, but hopefully she will be inspired by the AFA conference and see what a truly wonderful profession ours is."
Confidence and "the subconscious worry of failure" were the main stumbling blocks for Terese Markham, who spent 20 years on the admin side before deciding to become an adviser. She says that she will be doing everything she can to encourage Lara to become an adviser much sooner, because "that is the 'fun' part of the job".
Brad Fox, AFA CEO, says he is delighted to have three generations of one family attend the conference this year.
"It will be a fantastic opportunity for the AFA to encourage more young people into the industry and to demonstrate the benefits of a career in financial advice," he says. "It will also be a chance for Lara to connect with other young people particularly from our GenXt and Campus AFA networks, and to make some life-long friends who can help her along her journey to joining the profession."

I know that there is probably a better way to put this, but for whatever reason I can't think of it-what do I mean? I mean that I'm feeling "wordly constipated." I want to write. I got stuff in my brain to write about but it's sure having a tough time making it's way into the world! Please bear with me this week as I try to work out some words and work in the prompt words/image/phrase provided by Elephant's Child and Olga Godim at EC's blog.
"I was just wondering if you could solve a little argument?"
I ended up using the words and not the phrase or image, but I left those up there in case anybody else was inspired and wanted to write from those too or instead :o)
There wouldn't be a hotter day that summer. Mallory felt an overwhelming sense of stubborn conviction sink into her bones as she jogged around the paved park path. She had very little data to support her conclusion but it seemed like today would have to be the hottest because it was simply the perfect complement to her mental agony. She hated sweltering heat and she hated the misery depression and anxiety brought into her life.
It had been eight days now since her mood began sliding down and her anxiety flaring up. The shift in mental stability made her feel isolated and lonely; sick to her stomach at times and dizzy or faint at others. Images of various suicide scenarios swept through her mind multiple times a day and she struggled to ward off the intrusive thoughts that she was hopelessly flawed and burdensome to her loved ones. She recognized the symptoms of her mental disorders but despite her experience combating the darkness she had been unable to prevent the episode. Now she found herself outside, dripping sweat and risking sunburn while she jogged and trudged around the park in an attempt to bring her mood up and keep her mind from the darker thoughts and urges.
Someone laughed to her right and Mallory glanced toward the paved picnic area to see a group of children playing hopscotch and doodling with chalk. Instead of a smile she felt a frown collapse her features and she heaved a sigh. Hopefully they don't end up like me, she thought, writing off her life as an epic disappointment before catching the flawed thought and dismissing it. Just because I'm having a difficult time right now doesn't mean that my life isn't worth living or that I won't have happier days soon.
Mental manipulations and alterations like this were daily practices even when she was having better days; during the rougher times it was like "Mortal Kombat." For whatever reason she had to live with this type of brain that happened to try and convince her to kill herself from time to time. It was like living with a compulsive liar, some sort of masterful hoaxer attempting to pull one over on you so often that you begin to live in a state of suspicion and fear, unable to relax even at home in her lover's arms or with her closest family and friends. The threat was everywhere she was.
Mallory refocused her mind on her slow jog and counting her steps: 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4, over and over until the sadness and anger disappated enough that she could focus on something positive. She chose to think of that morning at the gym and the music from her workout class. Reciting the fun pop songs helped her forget the darkness for a bit while the stifling heat and exertion from the jog contributed to her distraction and further aided her mental escape.
As her muscles twinged and her breaths became ragged she encouraged herself to keep pushing; one step at a time, one breath at a time. She set a goal of jogging until the next porta-potty before taking a break to walk and suddenly realized that that was life; trying to keep going even when the going got rough, focusing on one step at a time just trying to reach the next benchmark.
Mallory smirked and shook her head, negative thoughts chiming in about the futility of life and the unavoidable pain and struggle, images of death offering relief and escape. Mallory grit her teeth and confronted the dark thoughts with images of her husband and child, laughter and hope, silent words of encouragement and validation.
The battle continues, she thought and wondered if the people watching her huff and puff and sweat her way around the park had any idea how much more challenging her mental exercise was. One step at a time. One thought at time. Just keep trying.
And so she did.
Definitely some real life inspiration there but a little different :o) Glad I was able to get something out-wasn't sure if I was gonna be able to at first!
Thanks for reading. I'm going to be providing the prompts next month (EEEEEEEE! Nervous and excited!) so things might be a little different hereabouts on Wednesdays but I'm still going to try and write and keep the updates coming. August here we come!

Drawing on original fieldwork, this book develops a fresh methodological approach to the study of indigenous understandings of disease as possession, and looks at healing rituals in different South Asian cultural contexts. Contributors discuss the meaning of 'disease', 'possession' and 'healing' in relation to South Asian religions, including Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism and Sikhism, and how South Asians deal with the divine in order to negotiate health and wellbeing. The book goes on to look at goddesses, gods and spirits as a cause and remedy of a variety of diseases, a study that has proved significant to the ethics and politics of responding to health issues. It contributes to a consolidation and promotion of indigenous ways as a method of understanding physical and mental imbalances through diverse conceptions of the divine. Chapters offer a fascinating overview of healing rituals in South Asia and provide a full-length, sustained discussion of the interface between religion, ritual, and folklore.

ALCS Game 1: New York Yankees vs the Detroit Tigers Preview, Prediction, Where to Watch
Blistering Game 5 performances by their aces bring the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers together for Game 1 of the American League Championship Series Saturday night at Yankee Stadium.
Both teams needed five games to advance after dealing with the scrappy Oakland Athletics and Baltimore Orioles.
CC Sabathia pitched a complete four-hit game Friday night, with nine strikeouts and let up one earned run in New York's 3-1 victory over the Orioles.
After DH Lew Ford singled in Matt Wieters with one out in the eighth inning, Robert Andino loaded the bases with an infield single, but Sabathia silenced the late Baltimore rally by striking out leftfielder Nate McLouth and forcing JJ Hardy to ground out.
Sabathia saved New York from a rash of cold streaks up and down its lineup, and slumping power hitter Alex Rodriguez benched for the final game.
Outfielder Curtis Granderson only hit .158 in the ALDS, but might've broke through his slump Friday, going 2-for-3 with an insurance homerun in the seventh.
Rodriguez is slated to bat sixth in the lineup in Game 1, despite going 2-for-16 with nine strikeouts in the ALDS.
Detroit's less heralded bats did the work on offense, but it was starter Justin Verlander's two masterful games that propelled the Tigers to their second straight trip to ALCS.
Verlander pitched his own four-hit complete game to shutout the A's with 11 strikeouts in the Detroit's 6-0 Game 5 win.
Tigers second baseman Omar Infante scored two runs and was 2-for-3 in Game 5, and centerfielder Austin Jackson also contributed two runs. Infante leads the Detroit lineup with a .353 average and six runs, while Triple Crown-winning first baseman Miguel Cabrera hit only .250 with one RBI in the ALDS.
Doug Fister gets the start Saturday after an eight-strikeout seven-inning no decision in Game 2 of the ALDS that the Tigers won 5-4. The 28-year-old righty had one start against the Yankees this season, going 6 1/3 innings with two earned runs and four strikeouts for the no decision.
New York will start veteran Andy Petitte, who went seven innings and gave up three earned runs in New York's 3-2 loss to the Orioles in Game 2. Pettitte did not face the Tigers this season as he was limited to only 12 starts due to an ankle injury that kept him out for most of the year.
The first-pitch is scheduled for 8:07 p.m. EDT and will be broadcast by TBS, or you can watch live online by purchasing MLB TV here.
Prediction: With neither team starting their aces, this could be a high-scoring, wild first game. Look for New York to pressure Fister if they get on with hard baserunning, and for the Tigers to take Pettitte deep into counts to test the 40-year-old's endurance. New York's bats should finally come alive for the win, but Detroit will challenge in the late innings.
Predicted Score: New York 7, Detroit 4

The polarshield is an interface board that links a physical interface (the touchscreen), a mass storage device (an SD card) and a pair of powerful stepper drivers with an Arduino MEGA-compatible processor board.
There is also a space for components for a third stepper driver, should you want a three axis board for your own projects. The parts for the third driver are NOT populated, but get in touch if you would like them anyway and you can add them by hand.
It contains:
- Polarshield v2 board, assembled and tested
- 2.4 inch colour touchscreen LCD
- SD card slot (full size)
- 2x A4988-based stepper drivers
- 2x stepper motors
- Drive sprockets
- Lasercut motor brackets and bolts for motors (video about how to assemble them here)
- Central-axis gondola parts (assembly video)
- Pen lift servo motor with control horns
- 4m of beaded cord (black or white)
This kit does NOT include:
- Arduino MEGA2560 controller board (though I have some in the shop)
- Case
- Cables (four wires for motors, three for pen lift servo)
- Power supply (must be 7v+, 1A+)
- SD card
Unless you state otherwise, the board will be supplied with the standard connectors.
The PolargraphSD vitamin kit is designed for enthusiasts. Although it contains lots of the parts you need to make up a PolargraphSD machine, it does require some skill and dexterity, as well as the ability to learn how to update the firmware on an Arduino. As it is supplied as a parts kit, I can't be responsible for any hardware issues once it is in-circuit. I test the shield at home on my own kit so I know it works, but how you wire it up is up to you.
That said, I will try my best to give you any help you need to get your machine running but I am only one person and won't necessarily be able to help with every query right away. There is a forum at www.polargraph.co.uk that you can request help on, along with some helpful people there, and any solutions that come out of that go back into helping the community, so that's the recommended way of getting it.
Shipping is £9 in the UK, £17 in the EU and £22 everywhere else, and takes between 2 and 10 days.

I was reminded today of a question I used to see a lot in the forums. Not so much anymore, but perhaps a refresher is in order.
Granted, it seems almost brilliant to simply configure all the URLs and connection points to the DAG IP. And after all it does say its use is "Cluster and Client" 😛
and if that means there is no need to worry about load balancing and let Exchange handle it, then why not?
Here's Why:.
- There is no Exchange dependency on the Cluster IP being online. Both Exchange 2013 and Exchange 2016 support IP-Less Database Availability Groups. The cluster IP can go offline and Exchange will run just fine. The only real reason to assign a Cluster IP address is if you are using backup software or another 3rd party application that requires it. If you run Exchange with the Preferred Architecture recommendations, you won't be doing backups anyway!
- If the Cluster name goes offline and the IP with it, Managed Availability won't attempt to bring it online. That requires manual intervention. Yuck.
- The Cluster IP is held by a specific mailbox server in the DAG at any one time – meaning all client connections will go through that multi-role server and no others.
- If the quorum owner moves to another server, there is no guarantee that the clients will handle that gracefully.
- The only way to prevent a server from end-user client access in this scenario is to pause or stop the cluster service on the affected server.

Country stars The Band Perry were forced to axe a concert on Sunday night (03Jul16) after two men allegedly made violent threats to a venue employee in Delaware.
The If I Die Young singers were slated to perform at the Americana Bayside Welcome Center to a sold-out crowd, but hours before they were due to take the stage, two unidentified men made "alarming statements" to an employee, Delaware State Police Master Cpl. Gary Fournier said in a statement.
Together with venue security and local police, the sibling trio made the decision to postpone the concert, due to "heightened security concerns and for the safety of the public," Fournier said.
The band released their own statement to disappointed fans, saying, "While we are sad we don't get to see you tonight, we love you and consider your wellbeing and security our top priority."
State police released surveillance photos of two suspects, who are still at large.
The concert has been rescheduled for 17 August (16).

Marketing Strat & Visual Merch in search of job (Mexico City)
Dear Internations Community,
At the moment I am searching for a new job challenge.
In my last position as a Jr category manager in the cosmetic industry (L´oreal Spain) I was in charge of coordinating the marketing mix of the product lines, visual merchandising, but also the planning and execution of strategies based on desk and field research. I am searching for a similar position but not necessarily in the same industry.
I am a Mexican citizen with a masters degree in Publicity and Corporative Identity from the EAE Universidad Camilo Josè Cela at Madrid, Spain; I am fluent in four languages, currently in Mexico City after living and working in Spain for more than 3 years. I am flexible with respect to possible relocation within the country or abroad.
If someone has an open position and is searching for a young, motivated marketeer, please feel free to write me a private message and I will be very happy to send you my CV!
Best regards,
Selene Medel.

- The US has an estimated 283 million guns in civilian hands
- Each year about 4.5 million firearms, including approximately 2 million handguns, are sold in the United States
- An estimated 2 million second hand firearms are sold each year
- The percentage of American households with a gun has been steadily declining (high of 54% in 1977 to 33% in 2009)

Costs of Gun Violence
- Gun violence impacts society in many ways: medical costs, costs of the criminal justice system, security precautions such as metal detectors, and reductions in the quality of life because of fear of gun violence.
- U.S. lifetime medical costs for gunshot injuries total an estimated $2.3 billion
- U.S. taxpayers pay for almost half ($1.1 billion or 49%) of lifetime medical costs for gunshot injuries
Guns Recovered from Crime
- Only 1% of gun dealer account for almost 60% of crime guns recovered by police and later traced
- In one year, at least 30,000 guns were "lost" out of gun dealers inventories
- Guns with a short "time to crime" are disproportionately represented among crime guns. Guns manufactured and sold 3 years or less, prior to recopvery by police in crime make up 34 % of recovered and traced crime guns, but only 14% of the US gun stock.
- Guns sold as paert of a multiple sale at a gun dealer were up to 64% more likely to be used in a crime than guns not part of such sales.
- "No background check" sales account for an estimated 40% of gun sales in the U.S.
