What Makes Us Distinctive? The PDF Way: A Letter from the Executive Director, Winter 2013
What makes PDF distinctive? As you may remember from September's post, I am now answering such questions in my introductory letter for the Parkinson's Disease Foundation's quarterly newsletters, and posting them on the PDF blog, so we can begin a conversation with you. In PDF's recently published Winter 2013 issue, I discussed what makes us distinctive, what we call The PDF Way. How does it play out in our programs? The PDF Way In our research portfolio, The PDF Way means supporting the creative ideas brought to us by scientific teams and individuals — peer-reviewed and time-tested.

This entire week has been spent cleaning out the old garage. Dh has been pulling up the brick floor so we can reuse the bricks in the new barn. The electricity has been cut to the garage so now I'm milking by lantern light at night, it reminds me of the power outage after the ice storm.
One of dh's ewes lambed but it was a long, hard birth and the lamb was dead before it hit the ground.
The rest of the does were due this week, but as of late last night they are still holding those kids in! Next week might be a zoo; I hope they don't all have them at the same time!

Pardon me while I totally have a week where I need to submit for the sake of continuity… Action is tough. At least my subjects had fun.
Week 8: Action
A theme that is a win-win for all involved…
Last week I put in over two hours experimenting with reflection photography advice I found here. After vigorously cleaning a giant mirror, setting up a black sheet tent, trying out different 'subjects', using Lego pieces to hold up the photos, taking 38258276245 photos to come up with the right angle… I think I learned a lot this week, even if I'm not totally satisfied with the outcome. (I think it lacks direction…)
Week 7: Reflecting
"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards." ― Søren Kierkegaard
Oops; assuming it was open to all senses, I was going for 'sense of humor.' But perhaps 'hearing' works too.
Week 6: Five Senses
"The secret to humor is surprise." — Aristotle
There's nothing to make you feel more a part of a society's special mosaic than to find yourself arriving at the sealed entrance of the Unemployment Office, joining a small mob of people across all of Israeli demographics, all staring at the printout sloppily taped to the heavy doors…
…that the ministry is on strike.
In the past week, I've found myself outside my comfort zone many many times.
…to name a few.
For the sake of a photograph, I injected myself into an unlikely scene on this grey damp morning: our local cemetery. I'm emo enough to find beauty in a graveyard stroll, and human enough to shiver while passing through the quiet rows of gravestones, the larger ones down to the way-too-tiny ones.
I decided to use this photo, the burial site of Yuval, a Tzur Hadassah teenager who died of cancer nearly two years ago (we have a beautiful park newly built in her memory). She is visited; she is remembered… from the flowers planted around her resting place, to the momentos arranged along the etched text, and of course, in accordance with Jewish tradition, the multitude of simple stones placed along the top of her grave.
Week 5: Outside your comfort zone

AIM Management Group of Houston, Texas has announced that it has formed AIM Private Asset Management, a new subsidiary that will market customized portfolios to high-net-worth and institutional clients.
"We started rolling the idea around on this in the fall of 1999," said Kamala Sachidanandan, vice president and director of the new subsidiary. "The demand for the portfolios came from retail wholesalers with relationships with financial advisors." Financial advisors wanted customized products through AIM that they could market to their high-net-worth clients, she said.
AIM will sell the portfolios through First Union Securities of Charlotte, N.C. and minimum investments in the portfolios will be $100,000, Sachidanandan said. The products will be made available to the public Oct. 16, she said.
Investment advisors will be allowed to customize the portfolios to eliminate over-weighted holdings in their clients' investments, said John Roehm, a spokesperson for AIM. Each portfolio will be managed by one of AIM's portfolio managers and will hold approximately 60 different securities, he said.
Advisors will be alerted to changes to their clients' portfolios through an e-mail system that will also forward information and news updates on the portfolios' holdings, Sachidanandan said. AIM Private Asset Management also plans to launch a website, www.aimprivateassetmanagement.com in mid-October, she said.
Eight different portfolios will be offered including a large and mid-cap core fund, a large, small and mid-cap growth fund, a value fund, an international growth fund and a fund that invests in companies that produce products that are popular with baby boomers, said Roehm.

The Taranaki Community Rugby Trust (TCRT) is a Charitable Trust committed to nurturing and growing community Rugby in Taranaki. The TCRT was established solely to cater for the non-professional game and aims to see as many young people as possible enjoying the sport for years to come.
As a dynamic and thriving charitable organisation, we are committed to providing grants which go directly to primary and secondary schools, clubs and age grade teams throughout Taranaki. Our grants allow these organisations to engage in innovative programmes to maximise participation and remove any barriers which prevent young people from becoming involved in rugby.
Our belief is that it doesn't matter what your background is, being involved in physical team sports is great for kids - both young and old. It improves physical, mental and social well-being health and fitness.
In 2008 we established a dairy farm in South Taranaki, to help generate funds to support the TCRT. The farm is performing extremely well and we are confident it will continue to help fund community rugby for many years to come.
As a charitable organisation, we rely on support from local businesses and individuals to help us achieve our goal of distributing more funds to rugby communities. We are encouraging everyone who is passionate about the sport to support us in protecting the spirit of grass roots rugby for future generations.
If you would like to help us to nurture community rugby for years to come, then please contact Will Johnston on 027 348 3831 or email email@example.com.

Geothermal Studies In The Nile Delta, Egypt
From Open Energy Information
OpenEI Reference LibraryAdd to library
Journal Article: Geothermal Studies In The Nile Delta, Egypt
Abstract228 temperature measurements of 48 wells located in the northern part of the Nile Delta were used for obtaining geothermal gradient values at each well. Considering thermal conductivity values for the rocks forming the stratigraphic section in the Nile Delta to range between 2-2.3 w/m°C heat flow values over this part of the country were found to range between 39 and 56 mw/m2. These values show the extension of the regional low heat flow that covers the Eastern Mediterranean area south to the northern parts of Egypt. Geothermal gradient values obtained at the 48 wells were used for compling maps of gradient variation over the study area. They were also used for calculating the depth at which 90°C and 150°C are expected. This range of temperature represents the probable liquid Hydrocarbon window, and depth and isopach maps for it are constructed. They show thicker window at Mit Ghamer, Tanta, Abu Qir, NAF, Tell El Ahmer, Wastani, and Qantara. These areas represent more potential areas if source rock is present. These results probably present additional informations for better assessment of oil and gas potentials of the Nile Delta.

Dr Winfried Sedhoff M.D.
Dr Winfried Sedhoff is a GP (Family Physician) specialising in mental health with over 25 years of clinical experience.
Winfried seeks for all of us to live the most satisfying, meaningful, and fulfilling lives we possibly can, in a balanced and sustainable way. He believes we can do it if we get back to basics, keep it simple, and work towards being true and honest with ourselves.
He lives in Brisbane, Australia.
Women were once revered and highly respected.
Learn why women are often treated poorly simply for being a woman, and what you can personally do to change that...
A balanced life is something we all yearn for, but it can only be honestly achieved through a balance of self. This important book gently...
the fall and Rise of women
Chapter 1:
Introduction to the Balance of Self Model
Search inside your heart and you will find a basic mix of fears and desires: the same mix from which all humans are composed. In many ways we are much like a cake: with the same basic ingredients of flour, sugar, eggs, butter, milk, and soda we can make many different cakes. A sponge or a pudding, a slice, or a wedding cake. Add extra flavors for a chocolate, orange, or lemon cake. At the heart we have the same basic ingredients mixed in different amounts. Just as at our core we are made up of the same basic human desires. We are different thanks to the changing strength of our desires and are never exactly the same from this day to the next – the balance of ingredients keeps changing inside us.
The Balance of Self (BOS) Model is a summary of our basic human desires; those we must have if we are to survive – the basic ingredients. This simple dynamic model can help us make sense of what desires we have and how they become stronger and weaker under different con- ditions, such as those that can lead to the oppression, abuse, and dis- respect of women. The model can help us better understand ourselves.
The BOS Model can be best expressed in a diagram.
See page 2 of the book
The main components in the BOS Model are termed the Three Human Essences: Personal Self, Family Self, and Community Self. They summarize the essence of what drives us to be human, to act and behave as a human being, as opposed to acting like a bird or a cat. If you had the desires of a bird for example you would want to fly from tree to tree, or hover high in the sky searching for something to eat. Thankfully we don't have such desires or more than a few of us would have some very painful bruises or broken limbs.
The Human Essences are a summary of our human motiva- tions and desires grouped into three parts.
In the center of the model is the supplementary component Land. Let us consider each of the components in turn and begin to see how they make us whom we are so we can clarify their part in the fall of the Essence of Woman and what part they play in an authentic woman's life.
Personal Self
Personal Self desires help keep us alive and healthy in our own right. Not surprisingly some of its desires include those of hunger, thirst, and the desire for warmth and shelter, for without these we wouldn't be able to survive. But Personal Self can represent much more than that.
Personal Self has five components that change how we see and treat ourselves:
1. Self-worth
2. Self-respect
3. A sense of knowing what we think and feel in our own right
4. Sense of choice
5. Being our best friend
We are unlikely to meet our own personal needs if we don't think we are worthwhile, don't respect ourselves, don't know ourselves well enough to recognize our needs, don't think we have a choice in having our needs met, or if we treat our self as an enemy rather than a close and trusted best friend.
Personal Self is about stripping away the influences of others and then uncovering who we are.
Would you know whom you are when no one is around and you don't have to answer to anybody? When you strip away the role of mother, friend, worker, and companion, who are you? Personal Self is about having a strong sense of your individuality, an identity that isn't determined by the influences of others. It is the closest we can find to an honest and true sense of genuine and unique self.
Personal Self is considered the foundation of the BOS Model as without a strong Personal Self we will never truly be ourselves, and never find true and honest fulfillment in any part of our life. When we try to be someone we're not we don't satisfy our needs, just the needs of the person we think we should be.

0.75 reward points
Credit Points Virtuemart 2.x
Required Joomla 1.7/2.5 - Virtuemart 2.x - Virtuemart Reward Points. You can buy it in 2 times: use the 3 registration points to get the Reward Points Extension and earn other 3 points from total amount. Then change them in a new 3€ chip and buy the credit points for 12€
Buy points, pay with points. Using regular Virtuemart payment methods and the new credit points, that auto-hides other methods depending on what you are purchasing: credits or regular products!
Virtuemart credit points extension manages a professional and logical credit points system in virtuemart 2. It needs Virtuemart Reward Points extension for vm 2 - the new version.
With credit points extension, your customers will be able to pay with points and purchasing credit points to purchase! Not as the "chips" of reward points, the credit points must pay all the amount of order. So it enables a real credit system or subscription currency points.
The Virtuemart Credit Points is a suite of a Virtuemart payment plugin, a Virtuemart custom product field and the enabler for Virtuemart Reward Points extension 2.
It installs a new Virtuemart Payment Method, the "Credit points". You can use it as you usually use paypal, autorize, etc. It installs a new product custom field, the "Credit Points". You can use it when creating a new product in Virtuemart, that you will call a "buy credit" product. Finally, it enables a new section in the administration setting of the Virtuemart Reward Points extension, as shown below.
Intelligent payment method showing.
It works as in fotolia or istockphoto where you buy image only with credits. You purchase a quantity of credits (there are also some promotional credit packs) and then the only way to buy images are credits: not all payment methods: just credits. In fact, what do you need more to setup a credit system? Showing money payment methods when purchasing credits, and just showing credits when purchasing regular products!
Pay with points all order amount.
Credit points extension can also ...simply "pay with points" your order, as a regular Virtuemart payment method. So you can choose which order-status for a transaction successful or cancelled, and so it can even fire the reward points extension to give new points. And you can manage through all possible option.
Why our credit points extension is good for you?
Because it uses Virtuemart both for buy points than for paying with points. You simply publish a product with 1 credit points at your price. Pressing + or - in the product details page or in the browse page the customer decide how many points to purchase. You can also publish a product with 100 credits with a lower price than the unit-credit product. From the Virtuemart payment methods, you build all payments: from paypal, to credit cards, authorize.net etc, and the credit points payment. When users purchase credits, they can only choose from all payment you created expect for the points. When they purchase regular products, they can only pay with credit points.
You can separate the product "buy credits" from the other category, so users won't purchase them together and - if you can not - when a user try to buy credits during a normal purchasing, he pays with credit points, so regular product are purchased with credits and "credits purchased with regular product" simply remain the same (points spent equal to earned credits)
So: a platform to do everything. Joomla, Virtuemart, Reward Points and Credit Points.

Michael Jackson documentary premieres
October 28, 2009 | Posted by Chris
Yesterday at midnight fans in Beijing flocked to the Beijing screening of the much-anticipated Michael Jackson documentary "This Is It," according to the AFP. Simultaneously premiered in 17 world cities, the documentary follows Jackson in the months he spent rehearsing for a 50-concert tour that was to begin in July this summer, less than one month after he passed away from cardiac arrest. Last night's Beijing showing attracted a large audience, many of which donned single white gloves and carried posters of the late artist as a tribute, and prior to its start Jackson impersonators took to the stage, doing the moonwalk and grabbing their crotches as made famous by Jackson. "I came here from Shanxi province to pay my respect to Michael Jackson. I admire him," said high school student Bai Bin, who was one of the lucky few to buy a ticket before they sold-out just days after going on sale. For those in Beijing interested in seeing the documentary, there is good news: the film plays across the capital in major theaters for the next two weeks, screened in English with Chinese subtitles.

Howdy everyone! I absolutely love taking a peak inside people's travel makeup bags and since I'm going away to the shore for a few days I figured I would show ya'll what I'm bringing along with me in my travel makeup bag! I'll also be sharing my "Shore/Vacation Essentials" as well not only to share my advice but to also sneakily help me remember what I need to pack for tomorrow mwahaha! I hope this helps! On with the post...
What's In My Travel Makeup Bag...
1. Urban Decay Naked & Naked 2 Palettes: It's a little unnecessary to bring both but I use the shades "Buck" and "Naked" to fill in my eyebrows and darken my crease while I use a ton of shades in Naked 2 to create my everyday look so I could not simply bring just one!
2. Sonia Kashuk Radiant Tinted Moisturizer: This product will be perfect on days when I hit the beach or will be sweating a whole bunch! It evens out my complexion and adds a healthy glow without the heavy and greasy feeling of foundation.
3. Clarins Truly Matte Foundation: For nights when I feel like I need more coverage, this foundation will be perfect. I always get so many compliments when I wear this foundation because it really makes your skin look flawless. Although it's mattifying (which is perfect for humid & hot weather), it still allows some of my natural oils to come through so I look healthy and humanly. I adore this stuff!
4. ELF Setting Mist: I've recently discovered this stuff and I can honestly say that I'm a fan. It certainly makes my makeup last a bit longer and it also just feels so darn refreshing when I spray it on! This will be perfect for the hot weather.
5. MAC Studio Fix Powder: I use this product everyday to set my concealer and control oil in my t-zone! There's no way I could leave home without it!
6. MAC Mineralized Skinfinish in Soft & Gentle: This is the perfect highlighting powder that adds such a pretty glow! I use this almost everyday and sometimes pack it on my eyelids for a shimmery sheen. It's a must have in my makeup bag.
7. Benefit Hoola Bronzer (sample size): I was obsessed with this bronzer when I first used it and figured I would bring it along with me for my trip because it's so tiny and easy to travel with! It's the perfect matte brown - and of course I need a bronzer!
8. Benefit Coralista Blush (sample size): Again, bringing this little guy because it's such a convenient size! I really like the shimmery peachy color as well!
9. NYX Blush in Silky Rose: Decided to bring this blush as well for a little variety! I've been using it everyday because it's the perfect rosy pink color.
10. Maybelline Color Tattoo in Barely Branded: Another everyday product for me. I use this under my eyeshadow and it works perfectly. Such a great neutral shade!
11. Covergirl Lashblast Mascara: Super volumizing and lengthening! Not much else to say.
12. ELF Brow & Lash Gel: I use this everyday to set my brows! I can't live without it.
13. Jordan Brow Pencil in Darkbrown: I use this pencil to shape and intensify my brows. It's so great and affordable!
14. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer: The best drugstore concealer, hands down. I use it under my eyes to conceal discoloration and it works like a charm. Such a staple in my everyday look!
15. I probably don't NEED four lipsticks but I can't help myself. I'm bringing Rimmel's Nude Delight (a peachy nude), MAC's Candy Yum Yum (a neon hot pink), MAC's Ruby Woo (a matte true red), and Rimmel by Kate Moss's 107 (a vampy deep red). I'll honestly probably end up throwing a few more lip products into my bag before I leave. True Life: I'm addicted to lipstick.
Vacation Essentials
1. Sun Screen: This is pretty gosh darn obvious but sunscreen is so important, I couldn't not add it to my list! I completely regret all the times when I was younger and carelessly spent hours in the sun without protection (WHAT WAS I THINKING!?) and ended up looking like a lobster in so much pain. It's not worth the risk! Pack AND utilize tons of sun screen!
2. Snazzy Sunglasses: Sunglasses are incredibly essential on beach trips! Not only do they protect your precious lil eyeballs but they also can look super cute! I adore Target's sunglasses.
3. Texturizing Hairspray/Mousse: I don't know about you guys but I rarely use heat on my hair as is therefore on vacation I definitely do not want to be bothering with my hair so texturizing products are perfect! Just apply some after you get out of the shower, beach, or pool and your hair will look like a beautiful mermaid's!
4. Lip Balm with SPF: Again, sun protection is so crucial! Applying lip balm with SPF will prevent sunburn and gross chapped lips!
5. Camera: Don't forget your camera! Taking pictures and capturing memories is one of the best part about going away to new places.
6. Face Wash, Exfoliator, Moisturizer: Obviously you cannot forget your good old reliable face products! Ending and starting your day by taking care of your skin will ensure beautiful glowing skin throughout your trip. You can also buy mini bottles to take which are so cute and tiny!
7. Medication: Of course remember any meds you take along with things like aspirin! Having those on hand will prevent much headache (no pun intended)!
8. Small Purse/Wristlet: Especially when exploring new terrain or walking around town the last thing you want to be lugging around is a big old handbag so bring along a small purse or wristlet to carry your essentials in.
9. iPod/iPhone & Headphones: Listening to tunes while relaxing on the beach is so much fun so obviously don't forget your iphone/mp3 and DO NOT forget your headphones or charger!!!
10. Reusable Water Bottle: Staying hydrated in warm weather is so important! A refillable water bottle can be so handy!
11. Books & Magazines: Books and magazines are great to flip through when you're hanging on the beach or about to fall asleep! They're always perfect to have on hand.
12. Makeup Removing Wipes: After a long day of sweating in the heat it's so nice to have refreshing makeup removing wipes to swipe away your makeup! I can't live without my Simple Cleansing Wipes.
I hope this gave you guys some inspiration & ideas! I hope you have/had a great vacation and summer thus far! xo

They found that the federal government alone has over 23,000 forms used to track everything from the moisture content of prunes to the dating habits of teens. The report also found that in 1995 Americans spent over 6.5 million hours filling out all of these forms. Yet in 2016, we will spend more than 10.8 billion hours on federal paperwork. The reality is that there is more documentation than ever. How can this be? And how do you manage it all, let alone prioritize, share, organize and update it without doing redundant wasteful work? SharePoint Server is leveraged by many organizations to enable rich, seamless and productive collaboration – the kind of collaboration businesses need to keep growing, keep innovating and keep working towards a more profitable and productive future. SharePoint Server 2016 builds on SharePoint Online as its core. It offers new and improved, highly flexible deployment options. You can choose from a traditional on-premises deployment, a hosted service with Microsoft Office 365 sites powered by Microsoft SharePoint Online, deployment in Concerto (our virtual private cloud service), Azure or AWS Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), or a mix of these options with a hybrid approach, empowering you to choose how and when you take advantage of on-premises or cloud-based solutions—all without changing the user experience. SharePoint 2016 features: Responsive design. Improved mobile access to content, people and applications, along with touch-based experiences across devices and screen sizes File storage and document collaboration that is more people-centric Improved user experiences and capabilities derived from innovations in Office 365, available either as part of your on-premises deployment or through a hybrid implementation of SharePoint Server 2016 and Office 365 Enhanced user experiences SharePoint Server 2016 brings innovations in user experience with improvements to document libraries and navigation constructs that are consistent with Office 365. These updates have proven successful in driving adoption in Office 365 and will now benefit SharePoint Server. And for hybrid customers, there will be a seamless user experience that spans from the data center to the cloud. There is also improved mobile access and the touch-based experience in team sites. Compliance and Reporting Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is non-negotiable, and overexposure to information can have legal and compliance implications. SharePoint Server 2016 provides a broad array of features and capabilities designed to make certain that sensitive information remains protected with investments in DLP, new scenarios to enable data encryption and compliance tools that span on-premises servers and Office 365 while providing a balance between enabling user self-service and ensuring content usage adheres to corporate policy. Incorporating Information Rights Managements, the permissions of the document travel with the document. Cloud-inspired Infrastructure SharePoint Server 2016 is derived from the same code used to deliver SharePoint Online—code that has been validated over years, by millions of users, making it the most comprehensively tested version of SharePoint to date. This unified code base also facilitates support and updates across both Office 365 and on-premises SharePoint Server, and enables a standardized set of Application Programming Interfaces (API) that span on-premises and the cloud, enabling customers to innovate more easily than ever. Now you can move your intranet, document management, records management and legal records and business automation processes to the cloud with SharePoint.

"I urge students and their parents to check out all the scholarships available on the website," she said. "These awards are specific to Carteret County, but there are a number of other awards that might be of interest."
Rauhauser also praised local donors for their generosity in establishing these scholarships. "These donors understand that our children are our future, and if we invest in their education, we will all reap the rewards. We invite anyone who might be interested in establishing a scholarship fund in Carteret County to contact us."

One of the biggest criticisms of marijuana historically, all the way back to the Reefer Madness days, has been regarding the potential physical and psychological side effects. And yet, because it has been federally illegal for so long, studying its medical efficacy and true long-term health effects has been difficult.
Marijuana's legality (in those few states where it is legal, either recreationally or medically) has made significant progress since 1996, when Colorado first allowed medical marijuana use. And yet, federally, consideration of marijuana is at a standstill. Though the Obama Administration has, for the most part, looked the other way from legal state marijuana industries, there still has not been much progress on legalizing, decriminalizing or even rescheduling marijuana. Why? Partly because we don't know if it's really, truly safe. Long-term studies are needed that look at the many potential effects: lung function, blood pressure, BMI, etc.
…huh? There is a study like that?
Marijuana Study Shows Insignificant Health Effects of Long-Term Marijuana Use – With One Twist
A group of 10 researchers from all over the world – New Zealand, the University of California, and King's College London (among others) recently published a study on marijuana use lasting 20 years. The study examined 1,037 adults from ages 18 to 38, with a retention rate of 95 percent of the subjects.
After controlling for several possible conflicting factors, including tobacco use, childhood health and socioeconomic status, guess what the researchers discovered? Long-term marijuana use did not cause any statistically significant effect on lung health, inflammation, BMI or metabolism. "Statistical significance," in its most basic use, means a result that cannot be attributed to chance – so marijuana use only had negligible effects on a dozen different health metrics. Tobacco, predictably, did not fare nearly as well. It's just one study, but it is interesting nonetheless.
The one health factor that did decrease significantly for marijuana users? Periodontal health. Yep – the worst effect that marijuana had in the long-term was gum disease. Brush your teeth and visit a dentist regularly, folks.

Focus: The focus of this self-help article is to provide steps and information about the PandaDoc Document Builder "Content Blocks"
What is are Content Blocks?: Content blocks can be added when you create new documents or new templates. Content blocks are way to add text/images to your document/templates. PandaDoc has many different types of blocks, they are: "Heading", "Text", "Image", "Video", "Table", "Pricing table", "Page Break", "TOC", "Cover Page", "Page Header", "Page Footer", "Attachment". In this example, we will be creating a new template.
Step 1: Create a document/template. Click on "New Document/New Template" on the upper right and then click on "Create a Doc"/"Create a template".
Step 2: Adding the Content Blocks. Over on the right, click and drag the text block over and then you can add your text. In this example, we will add a "Text Block".
To add other blocks, simple drag and drop them.
Step 3: Block Layout Options. For the "Heading", "Text" and "Image" content blocks, each one of these has its own layout options. For text, you will see "Text", "IMG Left" and "IMG Right".
To view the layout options for other blocks, click on each link: "Heading", "Image", "Video", "Table Block", "Pricing Table Block", "TOC", "Cover Page", "Page Header", "Page Footer", "Attachment".
Step 4: Adding text and other content. Once you have added the block and select the layout, now you can add content and modify the text. You will see options for Bold, Italics, Underline, layout justification (Left, Center, Right), Number points and bullet points, hyperlinking and adding images.
Step 5: Copying a block At any time you can copy a block and the new version will show below the block that you have copied. We do this by going into the content block options, click the "…" and then Copy a block. Click here to learn more.
Step 6: Add to Content Library Using the blocks, you can add them to the Content Library to be used again. We do this by going into the content block options, click the "…" and then Add to Content Library. Click here to learn more.
Step 7: Moving Content Blocks At any time, you can move the blocks up and down in the editor. Click on the block, then on the top left you will see an black icon, click and hold with your mouse and then you can move up and down. Shown below is an example of moving text block above and below another block.
Step 8: Adding Fields You can also add PandaDoc fields if you have content that you wish to fill out by your recipients of the document. Please note: Fields can only be added inside of the block. In this example, we will be adding a Signature block.
For more information about the other fields you can add, click on each link: "TextField", "Dropdown", "Signature", "Initials", "Date" and "Checkbox".
Step 9: Undo and restore a deletion of a block. If you have accidentally deleted a block, there is an option to "Undo" this. If you miss the Undo button, you can go to More > Deleted Blocks to restore the block. These deleted blocks will be available in the "Deleted Blocks" section for 7 days.
Step 10: Continue to add the rest of your content. Explore the other blocks and then start sending out documents.

From April 12-15 of this year, TCG will facilitate a delegation to the Festival Iberoamericano de Teatro de Bogotá. Staff of TCG Member Theatres who are interested in presenting or developing work with Latin American artists can register for the industry weekend of this international festival at the special rate of $500, which includes tickets, four nights at a hotel, some meals, a translator, symposium/ speed dating sessions with featured artists, and more. TCG has led several delegations to this festival, and we've seen over a dozen projects emerge between TCG Member Theatres and Latin American companies. Contact Kevin Bitterman, associate director of Artistic & International Programs, before March 14th for additional information. This year, the festival will include 65 performances from over 26 countries, with a special focus on work from Brazil!
I want to thank all of you who participated in our 2013 Governing Boards Survey. We will be publishing the report soon, so please look for an email from us. When we talk to TCG Member Theatres about what they value most, our research rises to the top, whether it's our Fiscal Survey (conducted annually since 1974, with the 2013 Survey due on February 28), our Salary Survey or our Education Survey, which launches this week.
Because the information has been collected systematically over time, it gains additional value because we can measure how we're collectively evolving as a field. For example, according to the soon to be released In Whom We Trust V: Theatre Governing Boards in 2013, both managing leaders and development directors spent nearly twice as many hours per week working with their boards in 2013 than in 2007, on average.
We hope the launch of this report will generate discussion and material to help us improve governance at our theatres. If you have thoughts about particular topics or articles that would be of value—or if you'd like to contribute an article—please email me with your ideas. The Art of Governance, edited by Nancy Roche and Jaan Whitehead, and the many Centerpieces on Governance, are still valuable and timely. But a lot has changed in those years. What are the pressing issues today? We look forward to hearing your thoughts.

07-11-2017 10:20 AM - edited 07-11-2017 10:51 AM
I update approx 1000 references daily. Previously I wrote a script that would just say okay to the prompt that asked if you wanted to update all fields so I wouldn't need to sit infront of the computer all day answering the question (not optimal but it saved a lot of time). Now that Find Reference Updates will do that I no longer use the script. The problem is two fold
1. when I indicate to Find Reference Updates EndNote inevitable crashes and since it only says "67 of 1000 references" instead of a reference number, I have no idea what reference it got up to - no I don't want to count the references!
2. I don't really have a choice - I need to update the references, but most of the time the first reference it finds to update the "Update empty fields only" button is greyed out. IF I update all fields then the changes I made to the reference are mostly lost.
The workaround to this is not acceptable either - delete some information in the first reference so the button is not greyed out. This works, but is insane. Why can't the program have decent SQL query logic? I want to be able to tell it to update all records unless the only update is to field x. Or to just update all empty fields.
The fact that EndNote X8.0.1 continually crashes is a real albatross. I can't perform this part of my job function. I am extremely tempted to use Zotero instead. (I would if it wasn't for the fact we have an institutional license)
Suggestion to display record numbers when updating
I have been told by our IT people to never try to contact pubmed with more than 50 or 100 updates at a time, or we could be blocked as a possible "denial of service" attack on their website. Maybe that is why it is crashing? Pubmed is timing out the port?
I tried doing it with less than 50 at a time. This sometimes works, and sometimes crashes. No consistancy whatsoever. I just did one with 32 references and it crashed on #25. ("Not Responding")
Well it was a good excuse while it lasted! Sorry.

We all know and mostly love the Green Android 'Bugdroid' that is Google's official mascot for their mobile OS but according to Dan Morrill who used to be the Developer Relations Manager for Android that wasn't the first mascot for the OS.
Dan recently cleaned out a NAS and found some old images which he himself created using Inkscape as a response to a lack of eye candy on slides that were going to be used to present information on the Android APIs to Googlers back before Android was even announced.
I personally like the Dandroids, but I much prefer the Bugdroid that we know and love. What do you think? Do you think the Dandroids could have been a better option?

Two Dead In Helicopter Crash At Seattle Space Needle
A news helicopter crash near Seattle's landmark, Space Needle, leaves two dead and one critically injured. So sad.
A news helicopter went down on Broad Street, near the Space Needle in Seattle, WA, at approximately 7:40AM PT on March 18. The crash tragically left two dead and one in critical condition, as well as major damage to the surrounding area.
News Helicopter Crashes Near Space Needle
A news crew was out to do their daily job when suddenly, terror struck. The news helicopter crashed near the famous Space Needle landmark in Seattle, WA.
Firefighters and policemen responded to the devastating scene, which took place near the offices of CNN local news affiliate KOMO, according to CNN. The Tuesday morning crash left two dead, though details have not yet been released on the victims.
One man, 37, survived the ordeal and was rushed to Harborview Medical Center for critical treatment, according to the Seattle Fire Department. We do not have firm confirmation if he was on board the helicopter or if his casualties were obtained on the ground below, where fire raged from spilling fuel and at least three cars were demolished by the aftermath of the crash.
KOMO is reporting that the man was seen by witnesses running from a car with his clothing on fire, which leads us to presume that he was commuting via car through the area and was not actually on the doomed flight.
The crash happened in a heavily tourist-filled neighborhood — if it taken place later in the day, there could have been even more losses.
Eyewitness Reports On Space Needle Helicopter Crash
Several eyewitnesses of the tragedy have reported their view of the scene.
"It looked like the helicopter was trying to take off, and it just was trying to stabilize and it looked odd … and it just took a nose dive right down there on the street," one eyewitness told KOMO. "And the scary thing about was the gas from the helicopter started leaking and it caught a car or two on fire – so it's crazy."
Another eyewitness that the news station spoke with, Brian Cruz, recounted what he felt was a helicopter technical failure. "It looked like it got hung up on some cables, and before you know it – boom! – it dropped dropped to the street," he explained.
So terrifying, and such a tragedy for the lives lost. Our prayers are with the families of the victims, as well as the survivor now in treatment in hospital.

The decision to purchase a mattress comes once every 10 to fifteen years. It is not a simple one because your decision will figure out how you feel every day for your next10 to fifteen years. You will need to determine whether or not you want springs, foam, or air. All three support kinds will need to be "dressed" by layers of foam so to offer the comfort you favor. The choices are memory foam, latex foam, and polyurethane foam. Your choice will need to be based on your comfort needs relative to stress, your comfort relative to temperature, your allergic reactions, your sense of smell, and your motion transfer sensitivity. The choices are many. The confusion is mind boggling. The price aspect of every may be the greatest figuring out aspect for you. I hope to dispel your fears and to ease you into a more educated purchasing decision… one that will grant you the great night's rest that you deserve for a minimum of the following 10 years.
Polyurethane foam is by far the least costly choice of the three choices. Some hotels use these inexpensive mattresses on their beds. They do so to conserve money but I wonder if that objective is ever accomplished for them. The solid-core polyurethane foam is never comfy and hotels that use them cannot be thinking about return business. Accessories from thebest-mattress and other retailersin the past frequently came with these mattresses, but today's marketplace demands a cost for your essential add-on. Generally, these four inch slices of sheet foam sell for $99 to $139. Most people don't find polyurethane foam comfy enough to sleep on for any extended period of time, but this kind of foam is found in nearly all mattresses. It is most frequently used as a support layer below the softer "comfort" foams residing close to the surface of the mattress. Polyurethane foam is a petroleum based item and as this kind of it does "off gasoline." The smell or "off gassing" may last as long as a couple of weeks. People delicate to smells frequently report serious headaches or rashes throughout the "break-in" period. This kind of foam is the predominant kind of foam used in the manufacturing of furniture cushions.
Memory foam or "visco-elastic" foam has turn out to be one of the hottest selling segments of the mattress business. Tempur-Pedic purchased the rights from NASA to develop the foam for mattress applications. NASA had meant to use it to alleviate the gravitational forces skilled throughout take-offs and landings. Some say it was meant for your dashboards of the shuttle and other people say it was meant for your cockpit seats. NASA never used it and speculation is the off-gassing of this petro-chemical item in the confined quarters of space flight may have been the main reason. Tempur-Pedic marketed their first memory foam mattress in 1991 in Sweden. It immediately grew to become the mattress of choice in Europe. Their achievement in Europe dictated growth to the U.S., where it now prospects the "spring-free" section of the mattress business. Nearly everybody in the bedding business these days includes memory foam goods.

Rock 'N Learn
Product Reviews
Rock 'N Learn is a really awesome program! They have so many DVDs and CDs in any subject you can think of. The sight words set was perfect for helping my daughters memorize their sight words. Love these! Especially great for homeschoolers on a day when you're too tired or things come up. Just pop these in and they give you a little break.
This is going to be our summer break work. We have yet to start the program but from the worksheet and the dvd's (4) I'm more then pleased. This will help my son stay on track and be ready for the first grade, just a little extra boost. Thanks
I've paid for the product and every time I go to my account and then my download printable it states I've not purchased and items. HELP ME PLEASE! THANKS IF YOU CAN HELP
I was a bit skeptical of the whole Audio CD/Book set. We use the other Rock 'n Learn DVDs almost everyday and they have really enhanced our homeschooling But we'd never done an Audio CD one before. Oh my gosh, I couldn't get my daughter to stop listening! It comes with a book and the Audio CD goes through the whole book and had the lyrics to the songs and little workbook pages in it. She's 9 and hates writing. So she just listens and says her answers out loud! She loves the format and so now I'll be searching for more Audio Cd/Book combos from Rock'n Learn!
We use the Rock 'n Learn DVDs almost everyday! The Reading collection has really enhanced my son's reading ability! It's fun, interactive, and the kids love that they can do "school" by just watching videos and following along!

"Towards a General Theory of the Religion Clauses: The Case of Church Labor Relations and the Right to Church Autonomy," by Douglas Laycock. Columbia Law Review, Vol. 81, No. 7 (Nov., 1981), pp. 1373-1417.
"Freedom to be a Church: Confronting Challenges to the Right of Church Autonomy," Mark E. Chopko and Michael F. Moses. Georgetown Journal Of Law & Public Policy Vol. 3 (2005), pp. 387-452.
"The Waterloo For The So-Called Church Autonomy Theory: Widespread Clergy Abuse And Institutional Cover-Up," by Marci A. Hamilton. 226 Cardozo Law Review, Vol. 29:1 (2007), pp. 225-245.
In this installment we start looking at Mark Chopko's article.
"Freedom to be a Church: Confronting Challenges to the Right of Church Autonomy," Mark E. Chopko and Michael F. Moses. Georgetown Journal Of Law & Public Policy Vol. 3 (2005), pp. 387-452.
"The Waterloo For The So-Called Church Autonomy Theory: Widespread Clergy Abuse And Institutional Cover-Up," by Marci A. Hamilton. 226 Cardozo Law Review, Vol. 29:1 (2007), pp. 225-245.
In this installment we start looking at Mark Chopko's article.
First of all, you have to love a journal article with footnotes (note 75, for one) that cite the New Testament. At least this reference is easily found! As far as peer review goes...we may have to grandfather this one in.
The first sentence of Mark Chopko's 66 page essay written in 2005 is problematic: "Churches have a right to be free of government control."
Not so, according to Marci Hamilton. On pg. 239 of her 2007 essay, which we will soon consider, she states just as flatly "...there is no constitutional right to autonomy..."
So, which of these is right? Recall, back in 1981, Laycock wrote, just as plainly as Chopko: ". . . churches have a constitutionally protected interest in managing their own institutions free of government interference." Essentially, Chopko, on behalf of the bishops, is piggy-backing on the claims of Laycock and others who seek to broaden the constitutional claims for church's rights.
Perhaps anticipating sensible objections to the theme of extending rights to organizations (churches) that were intended for individuals (free exercise), Laycock also wrote in the 1981 paper that:
"…The right to church autonomy under the free exercise clause is not dependent on claims of conscientious objection. Individuals exercise their religion in ways not required by conscience, and they do so through organizations. Any interference with the autonomy of these organizations jeopardizes free exercise rights of their members, including the free development of religious doctrine…."
This is a lot to digest.
He sticks up for the right of the individual church member by suggesting that this authority can be transferred to the group. Meanwhile, there are many members of society who have nothing whatsoever to do with the group. Though these other folks are not implicated at this point in Laycock's argument, they, too, are individuals with rights. We can already sense that the story that Laycock is spinning will not have a happy ending.
Even though the right of free exercise is at the core of his argument, Laycock looks past the individual's exercise of religion and instead elevates the organization's exercise of its religion to the prime spot. It can be no accident that many of the legal entitlements that Laycock disfavors in this paper (sanctions designed to enforce the minimum standards of labor and social justice, for example) are often aimed at organizations in their role as employers, landlords, or educational institutions.
I'm not even sure if it's possible to transfer rights from an individual to a group, as Laycock proposes. When a group is represented by an individual (for example, when a CEO represents a corporation, or, when a Bishop represents parishioners in many of the same lawsuits under consideration here), the opposite is true. We accept this legal fiction of the one substituting for the many for a good reason — because it simplifies things. Whether the many can substitute for the one and thereby gain rights, and in particular new rights that never applied to the individual — that's different.
I also question where he gets the notion that "…individuals exercise their religion in ways not required by conscience…" They do? How?
This sounds like a non sequitur. Do religious beliefs even exist, if they are not grounded in a conscience? Laycock's clause not only takes away an essential component (a person's moral outlook), it also places it where it does not belong and cannot take root (the group). Conscience cannot be shared.
Laycock's conclusion is that the group is allowed to exercise religion in ways not required by conscience. That's the plain meaning of what he wrote. By this logic, "church autonomy" is not only a creative extension of rights, it is also amoral.
Since this so-called right to autonomy is unmoored from human agency and the checks and balances of discussion, collaboration and debate, is it any surprise that it tilts toward the arbitrary and unexplained use of power? That it is capricious? That it can and does produce evil?
Arguments like Laycock's are the underpinnings of the legal strategies that Chopko and other church lawyers have been advancing for the last 30 years or so. A foundation like that goes a lot way toward explaining why the record of the Catholic church toward abuse victims has been so shameful.

We have now all learnt that tragedy has struck residents living near ExxonMobil's Souther Highlands operation. A large landslide 1km long has destroyed dozens of homes. Sadly, the death toll could reach 60.
Source: ABC News
Clearly our first thoughts must go out to the family of the victims. However, given the scale of this tragedy it would be remiss if we did not consider whether there was a causal link between the landslide and ExxonMobil's operations. When asked by ABC Radio, Exxonmobil denied the link. Nevertheless, disturbing evidence is beginning to emerge.
For example, in today's Namarong Report it was reported that United Nations PNG Coordinator has pointed the finger at Exxonmobil's operation. However, perhaps most damningly Bill Yomba from the National Disaster Office made the following remark to CNN:
"This is a very huge landslide that covered a 1 kilometer area. We are still trying to find out the cause but at this stage we believe the gas project run by Esso Higlands Limited was a contributor because they had been digging for limestone in the area".According to the ABC's Liam Fox similar accusations are being levelled by villagers near the landslide:
"There are people - locals are already drawing some links. How correct that is, we're not able to say yet. But they believe that the quarry next to the landslide site caused the landslide. That blasting in the past has, quote, 'softened the ground' as they have said. And that quarry was used by the LNG site for its operations. But Exxon Mobil says that's not the case anymore and hasn't been for about six months."The Post-Courier is relaying similar views from the ground:
"Locals blamed international contractor Clough Curtain Joint Venture (CCJV) for not developing the Tumbi quarry including proper safety procedures that resulted in the loose rocks and soil from the top of Gigira mountain range to cascade causing severe destructions on its way down."In a move that may seem insensitive in light of the tragedy, ExxonMobil has resumed work in the affected area - whether this risks further destabilising the site we are not sure. ExxonMobil's spokesman Rebecca Arnold has informed investors and customers this event will not prevent it from meeting its corporate targets.
Rest assured LNG Watch will keep readers fully updated on information as it comes to hand. It is absolutely essential for the victims and their family that the accusations again ExxonMobil are thoroughly investigated.

FAIRFIELD, Conn. — Six food truck merchants showed up at the Fairfield Metro train station Wednesday, eager to hear more about the state's proposal to allow one or more vendors to operate in the parking lot beginning this spring.
"I think it would be great," said Aaron Hagel of Best Food Fast, which serves up a full line of goodies in spots across Bridgeport. "We're definitely excited about it. The demand is here."
Commuters have been asking for simple amenities, such as food options and bathrooms, since planned retail development around the 5-year-old station has not materialized, said Craig Bordiere, a supervising rail officer for the state Department of Transportation.
The original station plans included a concourse with shops and restaurants, a hotel and other mixed-use space.
The state recently decided to seek proposals from vendors and will entertain ideas only from the six who showed up for the mandatory pre-bid conference at the station Wednesday, Bordiere said.
Among those were Best Food Fast, Fairfield-based Two Bills Grill and Breakfast Nook, which Erika Urszenyi has run near the New Haven train station for five years.
Hagel, a Fairfield resident, had already asked for a variance to set up shop in the lot next door near Planet Fitness and Tumble Jungle. He said he's ready to take on the train station with his spacious 24-foot food truck.
"Not everyone is as equipped to do it as we are," said Hagel, saying he can offer everything from breakfast fare to sandwiches and smoothies.
A full 1,242 people travel on Metro-North to or from the Fairfield Metro station during the weekday morning peak hours of 4:36 to 8:28 a.m., Dan Baker, a DOT rail transportation officer, told the vendors.
Another 705 travel on Saturdays, with about 517 using the station on Sundays.
"We believe the morning peak is a real opportunity," Bordiere said.
The request for proposals requires the vendors to explain their food, prices, where they would like to set up in the 1,400-space parking lot and the rent they would be willing to pay for the site.
Vendors have until Feb. 21 to ask any questions of the state, and full proposals are expected by Feb. 28. Bordiere expects to have a decision within two weeks of the deadline.
Urszenyi said she could provide coffee, pastries and sandwiches from her truck, just as she does on Union Street in New Haven.
"I'm very interested," she said, checking out the lot.

Northampton, Massachusetts—Senator Bernie Sanders is inching closer to deciding to run for president as a Democrat in 2016.
When Sanders appeared in Northampton to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Progressive Democrats of America, and to honor the legacy of the group's late co-founder and national director, Tim Carpenter, "Run, Bernie, Run" sentiment ran high. Carpenter's last act was to collect 11,000 petitions urging Sanders to run as a Democrat. And nothing Sanders said discouraged the consensus.
Thus a memorial service became an organizational birth, just as Carpenter himself envisioned.
Nothing is decided until it is officially decided, of course, and pressures from the Democratic establishment are building quickly against the independent Vermont senator. Few if any Democratic elected officials are likely to endorse Sanders for fear of retribution from the formidable Hillary Clinton forces. Women's groups, African-Americans, Latinos and Asians, Hollywood liberals and the organized labor are coalescing into a united front for Clinton too, and are sharply opposed to a potentially divisive primary fight with Sanders.
But just as 2016 will be Clinton's moment as a longtime feminist, it could also be Sanders' moment as the only candidate challenging what he calls the "oligarchic force" with their vast powers over the economy, campaign finance and suicidal exploitation of fossil fuels. Sanders' warning that democracy is threatened by the oligarchs resonates profoundly with millions of Americans looking for answers and for heroes. On the economic issues, it is predictable that a majority of rank-and-file Democratic voters prefer Sanders' message on the economic crisis to the neoliberal formulas long supported by the Clintons. Those populist issues are not the only motivators in an election, but create a pre-existing base for a credible challenger, just as the Iraq War and Democratic silence propelled Vermont Governor Howard Dean to national influence in 2004.
For the moment, Sanders is on a nationwide speaking-and-listening tour in which he delivers a long, detailed and educational stump lecture on the stranglehold of the oligarchy, adding a menu of general solutions: infrastructure spending, expansion of healthcare and education programs, repeal of the Citizens United and McCutcheon decisions, protecting civil liberties against a Big Brother surveillance state, and a rapid energy transition away from greenhouse gas emissions. Without detailing his foreign policy views, Sanders reminded the PDA audience of his opposition to the Patriot Act and the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
