General Information
1. You are expected to be here during all of term time, and to attend lectures, problem classes and tutorials.
2. The Mathematics degrees here are demanding and difficult and require a lot of work – in particular, it is very important to do the weekly course-works in each module . You also need to work on learning and understanding your lecture notes.
3. 3.5 units are required to progress to year 2, i.e. you can fail at most one ½ unit module. If not, you have to take an extra year and re-sit failed exams.
4. If you have a narrow fail in an exam in May, you may be offered a referral. You need to be available in early September in London to take the referral exam in order to be able to progress. Dates of referrals are not negotiable. For more information on referrals please see the section on September Referrals.
5. Check your college e-mail account regularly – this is one of the main ways we will communicate with you. Also check the departmental web-site.
6. Keep your personal details up to date on PORTICO and with the Maths Departmental Office (Room 610).
7. If you become unhappy with the course, fall behind, need help or experience personal difficulties, seek advice/help quickly, in the first place from your personal tutor or the Dept Tutor.
8. Cheating can have very serious consequences, for example a penalty
on a module mark, 0 for a module, failing the year or losing your whole
(i) Plagiarism applies particularly to projects and to students taking modules outside Mathematics - if you quote material from somewhere (including the web) you must reference it and not present it as your own work.
(ii) Copying course-work is also not permitted, although discussing problems with fellow-students is reasonable.
(iii) Cheating in exams normally leads to the most serious sanctions.
9. If you miss a formal exam for some good reason, make sure the Dept Tutor is informed as soon as possible. If you want extenuating circumstances taken into account, fill in and submit the extenuating circumstances form before the given deadline. Medical circumstances must be supported by a letter from a GP or hospital. You should make sure you are registered with a GP in the UK.

The study, published on Wednesday, warns of growing threats from rogue states, nuclear smuggling rings and the spread of atomic information in the developing world.
It singles out Pakistan as a particularly grave source of danger, given its terrorist networks, instability and stockpile of nuclear weapons.
The report by the Commission on the Prevention of WMD Proliferation and Terrorism, which was set up by Congress in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, conducted more than 260 interviews with officials and experts around the world.
It suggests that George W Bush's administration did not do enough to prepare for a biological attack on the US, and urges President-Elect Barack Obama to take "immediate steps" to keep weapons of mass destruction and nuclear technology out of the hands of terrorists by working with allies overseas.
The report concluded: "Our margin of safety is shrinking, not growing."
Bob Graham, a former Democratic senator who chairs the panel, said: "The commission believes that unless the world community acts decisively and with great urgency, it is likely that a weapon of mass destruction will be used in a terrorist attack somewhere in the world by the end of 2013."
"The risk is growing, not because we're making no progress but because the enemy is adapting and we must constantly anticipate and adapt as well across a broad front," said former Missouri Jim Talent the panel's Republican vice chairman.
The commission recommended the overhaul of international nonproliferation treaties, including more robust inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Mr Bush and Vice-President-Elect Joe Biden are being briefed on the report's findings.
The report came as the president admitted that faulty intelligence over WMD in Iraq was the greatest regret of his eight years in the White House.
In an interview with ABC News, Mr Bush said: "The biggest regret of all the presidency has to have been the intelligence failure in Iraq.
"A lot of people put their reputations on the line and said the weapons of mass destruction is a reason to remove Saddam Hussein. It wasn't just people in my administration. A lot of members in Congress, prior to my arrival in Washington DC, during the debate on Iraq, a lot of leaders of nations around the world were all looking at the same intelligence."
In reflective mood with just seven weeks left in office, Mr Bush apologized for the country's economic turmoil but hoped he would be remembered as "guy that came [to Washington], didn't sell his soul for politics, had to make some tough decisions, and did so in a principled way".

An English exchange student murdered in Italy met her killer at a party and may have had sex with him shortly before her death, detectives believe.
Investigators have also discovered what they suspect are the killer's fingerprints on mobile phones belonging to Meredith Kercher, and hundreds more in the house where her partially clothed body was found. A bloody hand print was found on one wall and the killer tried to wash blood from his hands in the bathroom, leaving more evidence.
Miss Kercher, 21, from Coulsdon, south London, was found with her throat cut in her bedroom in the city of Perugia at 1.30pm on Friday.
Pieces of paper soaked in blood were found around her body, which had been covered with a duvet, while a blood-soaked handkerchief was found outside the apartment.
Commissioner Marco Chiacchiera, the city's chief investigator, said the police thought she had met her killer on Wednesday at a Hallowe'en party.
They believe she let him in through the front door and may have had sex with him.
Luca Lalli, a pathologist who carried out a post-mortem examination, said Miss Kercher was killed with a penknife.
He added: "I can confirm that Miss Kercher may have been sexually active before the death, but it was definitely not a rape."
The killer is also thought to have left through the front door, locking Miss Kercher's body in the bedroom and taking the key.
Detectives think he used a rock to smash the bedroom window to trick investigators into thinking there had been a break-in. "The whole of the inside of the house was a complete mess," said Mr Chiacchiera.
Miss Kercher's flatmates, an American, Amanda Knox, and two Italians, were at a party and did not return to the flat until the following morning.
As they began to realise something was wrong, the police arrived. They had traced the address after an elderly woman discovered Miss Kercher's phones in a nearby garden.
Police have questioned all Miss Kercher's friends in Italy about the man that she met at the party in a pub in the centre of the city. Photos from the party, on Miss Kercher's Facebook webpage, have also been analysed.
But they have not ruled out the possibility that the crime was committed by a stranger, and yesterday a former occupant of Miss Kercher's house revealed that it was in a particularly dangerous area.
The housemate, Valentina, said: "There were always junkies and drug dealers around, especially in the garden and in our car park. We would come out and find syringes everywhere. I never felt safe there."
Miss Kercher's body may be released to her family today. Her grieving father, John, is expected to join in a torchlight procession tonight through Perugia to remember her.
The Leeds University student had been on an Erasmus-funded exchange trip to Perugia since the beginning of September.
Yesterday a sick joke was pinned to the front door of the University For Foreigners, where she studied. The mock advertisement offered Miss Kercher's room for rent, stipulating that it had a good view, and that an "English Girl, preferably an Erasmus student" was wanted. The phone number to call was the date of her death, November 1, 2007.

UPDATED 04/24/12 6:32 a.m.
CHICAGO (CBS) — A fire broke out Tuesday on the city's Far South Side, causing a home to collapse and sending a billow of thick smoke into the air.
As CBS 2's Kris Habermehl reports, no injuries were reported in the fire at 12031 S. Indiana Ave., at the southeast corner of Indiana Avenue and 120th Place, in the West Pullman neighborhood.
But the fire caused a plume of smoke so thick and voluminous that it formed a cloud over much of the Far South Side.
The structure collapsed early on in the fire. The intense fire burned through all the supports of the load-bearing walls, and the home fell like a house of cards, Habermehl said.
Firefighters battled the blaze in defensive mode from outside, as conditions were too dangerous to enter the house. All firefighters and civilians were away from the burning building as of 6 a.m., and everyone was accounted for, Habermehl reported.
Staging for the fire was at 119th Street and Michigan Avenue, Habermehl reported.
A recent Google Maps image shows a frame house under major renovation at the address where the fire broke out.
The cause and origin of the fire remained unknown at 6:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Pope Benedict and the Voice of God
Over the last few days, I've been pondering what the prayer of Pope Benedict's heart must have been during these past weeks. What was it like for him? What was happening in his interior life, in his heart to heart conversations with Jesus? What was he saying to Jesus? And what was Jesus saying to him? The Holy Father most likely will never reveal to us what was happening in the intimacy of his prayer... Read More
Pope Benedict XVI on Praying Without Ceasing

Basi wine making, first day of fermentation. Note evolving gas - carbon dioxide. Wine is produced by anaerobic fermentation.
Bottled basi wine for tourists shops and for export. Basi was among the items carried between the Philippines and Europe via Acapulco, Mexico, during the Galleon Trade era (17th and 18th century) when the Philippines was a colony of Spain, so with Mexico. Old folks attribute the unique fine taste of basi to bubud (homemade yeast).All kinds of alcoholic drink contain ethanol or ethyl alcohol - the only edible alcohol. Wine is as old as civilization. Serendipity must have led to early wine making techniques, the key being the domestication of the first microorganism - Saccharomyces, the ubiquitous yeast.
Wine making is converting sugar into ethanol. Ethanol or ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH) is universal in all alcoholic drinks from beer to table wine to liquor, irrespective of generic or brand name. The strength of wine is indicated by proof, which is actually twice that of its percentage content.
Thus, 80 proof is 40 percent ethanol, which is the strength of Vodka, some Brandy, Cognac, Whiskey, and the like. The strength of beer normally ranges from 3 to 5 percent, unless fortified with distilled ethanol to raise it to say, 7 percent.
Natural table wine such as Basi of the Ilocos region, table wine from grapes and other fruits, normally contain 10 to 12 percent ethanol. Beyond this level, the fermenting yeasts simply die off from the accumulation of ethanol - a biological phenomenon called autotoxicity. It means that the yeasts are killed by their own product, often leaving behind the unfermented sugar. It is this residual sugar that makes a wine sweet - naturally, that is.
Ripe leaves of samat or binuga is used in making basi. Yeast is found in ripening leaves. Here the leaves contain the highest level of sugar which the plant did not use or store. The yeast acts of the sugar and as the leaves fall to the ground, a myriad of microorganisms and animals (from fungi to earthworms and grazing animals) obtain their energy from them. Ultimately the organic matter left behind becomes part of the soil, releases the needed nutrients to the growing plants and those in the next generation.
Yeast is ubiquitous, it is found in flowers, ripening fruits, honeydew, ripening leaves. It comes in different species under the genus Saccharomyces, among them cerevisiae and ellipsoides. There are also other genera such as Brettanomyces and Debaryomyces. Not all yeasts make good wine. But one thing is universal to them. It is Nature's way of converting sugar molecules (C6H12O6) back to their elemental form. Oxidation often accompanies such process, thus converting ethanol to acetic acid (CH3COOH), which is vinegar. Vinegar actually is a term, vin-egar, which means sour wine.
Natural vinegar is oxidized ethanol, usually with the aid of bacteria, principally Acetobacter and Leuconostoc. The latter forms gelatinous capsule that accumulates into a transparent to white layer we call nata. This is the principle involved in making Nata de coco and nata de piña.
So, even before sugar ferments to vinegar, nata bacteria and other contaminants can spoil wine and vinegar making. A host of organisms are soon attracted such as Drosophila flies, blue bottle flies, wasps, moths and butterflies that feed on the spoiled must. This is happening to unharvested fruits in the field, to remnants of pollination and fertilization, It is true in ponds and lakes where biomass of algae die of algal bloom. Ultimately the product is simply water, evaporating into the air or settling down into a pool or seeping into the ground, and all the organic compounds once part of the living world are back to their elemental components ready to be reassembled into the next living generation. Indeed this a great wonder on how Nature keeps a dynamic balance of the environment called homeostasis.
We can only imagine the ingenuity of wine makers far back during the Epyptian civilization, and in the Orient, the Chinese civilization. I had a chance to visit the ruins of an Assyrian fort outside Tel-Aviv. There, our guide pointing at broken tall jars, said, "The Assyrians were among the best wine makers in the ancient world." The Assyrians were powerful, not even Ramses could conquer them, They had a flourishing economy. Their vineyards can be glimpsed from the vineyards around the place Lakish today. Lakish wine is well-known all over the world, perhaps as famous as the Bordeaux in France.
Without yeast, our world would be a less happy one. Perhaps many organisms wouldn't be around in the first place, including us humans.
Here's a toast to the wonderful bubud. Cheers! Kampai! Mabuhay!~

Down to two
The choice was down to two finalists, JWT, part of WPP Group, and Fallon Worldwide, part of Publicis Groupe, executives said. Fallon and Stouffer executives couldn't be reached for comment and JWT Chicago's president, Barry Krause, declined to comment.
Other roster shops included Interpublic Group of Cos.' Lowe and McCann Erickson, both New York; WPP's Ogilvy & Mather; and Publicis's Publicis Worldwide.
Havas' Euro RSCG, New York, was the incumbent agency.
Reignite the brand
The Solon, Ohio-based marketer is aiming to reignite the Red Box business with a heavy emphasis on merchandising and point-of-sale tactics highlighting low-carb benefits in some cases, according to an executive close to the marketer.
The executive said the Stouffer line isn't growing at the same pace as Nestle's other frozen-food brand, Lean Cuisine, as people switch to more nutritional and low-carbohydrate meals. Under the Lean Cuisine brand, there are now 11 low-carb offerings.
Earlier this month, Nestle launched a line of grilled chicken entrees under the Red Box brand as part of the effort to offer healthier variety. Although the brand relies on a "great taste" position, that flavor profile has often been the result of high-sodium, high-fat recipes.

Poroshenko Claims Russia Destroys 'World Order' by Striking ISIL in Syria
According to the Ukrainian leader, the Russian Air Force's operation in Syria against ISIL is leading to global instability. On the eve of Petro Poroshenko's accusation,
Damascus said that Russian jets have destroyed 40% of the terrorists' infrastructure.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko believes by bombing ISIL facilities in Syria, Russia is undermining the 'global security order.'
In an interview with BBC 'News Night,' he said that "Vladimir Putin wants global instability," comparing the operation of the Russian fighter jets in Syria to the situation in Donbass, where according to him, "15 months ago there were Russian soldiers." However, he again gave no evidence of the presence of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Ukraine.
According to Poroshenko, Putin is bent on creating global chaos "because of the economic problems and loss of support in his own country." But according to the latest polls, Poroshenko himself has only 3% of supporters amongst the respondents with 33% not in support.

A 5-Step Plan to Increase Brand Awareness Using the Google Display Network
When it comes to increasing brand awareness, AdWords can be a great medium that is often overlooked by marketers who defer to social media and other channels.
Gone are the days were "buzz" and "hype" were unquantifiable and impossible to tie back to ROI.
You can use the following simple five-step plan to create a brand awareness campaign on the Google Display Network.
1. Identify your goal(s)
Identifying your goals is always a good starting point.
- Are you looking to increase the brand loyalty of your existing customers?
- Are you hoping to have more of your target audience engage with your brand?
- Are you trying to create more positive affiliation with your products?
- Is it all the above?
Whatever your goals are, always start by identifying them as clearly and specifically as you possibly can. From that point on, every action you take, every ad you write, and every penny you spend should aim toward achieving your predefined goal(s).
2. Define your Metrics
Next, you'll want to define the main metrics to focus on for your brand awareness campaign. Generally, those are:
- Impressions: How many searchers actually saw your ad.
- Reach: The number of searchers exposed to the ad
- Frequency: The number of times they saw the ad.
- Interactions: What searchers did with the ad, including things like clicks or conversions.
3. Find Your Target Audience
Placement targeting on the Google Display Network can be very powerful, allowing you to reach your target audience all across the web. Tools like AdWords Placement or the Google Ad Planner allow you to expand your reach to sites where you're most likely to reach your target audience based on topics of interest, as well as demographic segmentation.
4. Get Creative With Your Creative
Goodbye boring text ads, hello rich media. One of my favorite things about rich media ads is experimenting and testing which format works best with which message. Whether you choose to use text, images, animation, or video, you've got endless creative ways to capture your target's attention and engage them with the content of your ad.
5. Budget for Success
Last but not least comes the money. Generally speaking, it's best to stick with CPM bidding if your goal is maximum exposure. If, however, your "interaction" goal is to drive searchers to your site, you should be using CPC bidding instead. If you're unsure what to set as CPM max, start at what you would pay if you were using CPC and start gradually increasing it.
Remember, your CPM can either be set at the ad group or placement level. Start at the ad group level, then as you get to know which sites are performing better for you, you can increase your placement bid there.
So there you have it. A simple five-step plan to increase brand awareness using AdWords.
Have you had much success with that strategy in display versus search? Are there any other channels you find more effective in building or increasing brand awareness? Share your thoughts and comments below.

We have interviewed Gil Penalosa, Founder & Chair of World Urban Parks & 8 80 Cities for the April/May issue of the European Covenant newsletter .
The Interview can be found in all EU languages under the following links:
български (bg) - čeština (cs) - dansk (da) - Deutsch (de) - eesti (et) - ελληνικά (el) - English (en) - español (es) - français (fr) - Gaelic (ga) - hrvatski (hr) - italiano (it) - lietuvių (lt) - latviešu (lv) - magyar (hu) - Malti (mt) - Nederlands (nl) - polski (pl) - português (pt) - română (ro) - slovenčina (sk) - slovenščina (sl) - suomi (fi) - svenska (sv)
Climate change, air pollution and population growth are putting a strain on the livability of urban areas. You are saying that we should rethink the way we build cities. What is your vision?
People are living longer than ever before. 200 years ago, the life expectancy was 45, today it is in many areas at over 80. We live longer and increasingly in cities, but the question is now how do we want to live our longer lives in cities?
We have been building our cities as if everyone was 30, but this neglects the remaining population. We have to build cities that are great for an 8 and an 80 year old. The population over 80 is bound to quadruple in the coming decades. Our cities should reflect and accommodate this development.
Public places have often been captured by cars and concrete, to the detriment of green spaces. You are advocating for more parks in urban areas. What would be the benefits of giving back space to the green?
Public places are magnificent in so many ways that we should take advantage of them. They create socialization, as young and old meet and enjoy the presence of each other. Moreover, Parks and public spaces are equalizers. In those places, we meet each other as equals, and we change our minds about one another in the process.
A good city is one where I can sleep at home and live outside. Furthermore, a good city is one where I can easily move around by walking or cycling. In Bogota for example, the city closed streets on a Sunday to make room for cyclists. At first, citizens were fervently against it. But when they saw the multiple benefits this measure created – better air quality, less noise, more public space – they changed their minds and strongly supported it. It is important to take such measures to incite change in people's minds and give public space back to the citizens in our cities.
What messages would you like to pass on to Covenant signatories that can provide inspiration for their transition towards becoming vibrant, sustainable and resilient cities?
Firstly, think of the gentle majority in your cities: kids, old people, vulnerable citizens. Be creative, create spaces where kids can develop creativity and learning. We build fantastic parks for dogs, but not for kids under 5. When you are a kid, this is when you develop a sense of belonging to a community! Everyone should have a park within 10 minutes walking distance. Think not only about creating enough parks for your citizens, but also about creating enough opportunities to do activities inside. We are talking about equity, not equality. Equity means giving more chances to vulnerable citizens in your city, and it is a key principle local leaders should follow in their policies.
Secondly, we have great opportunities, but also a huge responsibility: The population in our cities is growing rapidly, and we have to think how this growing number of people is going to move from A to B. Giving all these people cars is not the solution to move forward. We need to change, and it is possible to change. Look at Copenhagen for example. When they wanted to create the first pedestrian streets in the 60s, people said no at that time, because there were still too many cars on the streets and there was no real culture of being outside. Now, Copenhagen is one of the most cycle-friendly cities in the world! 41% of trips in Copenhagen are made by bike, and they have nearly reached their goal of 50%.
Thirdly, remember that change is never unanimous: General interest must prevail over particular interest. Whenever you say no to something or someone, you say yes to something else.
Fourth, make mobility sustainable: The first mode of transportation in our cities is walking, so we should establish the infrastructure to make walking as safe, convenient and comfortable as possible. There should be islands on crossroads to protect people that are walking. Furthermore, every residential street should be a 30km/h street. If we only switch our cars to become driverless and electric, we won't change anything about mobility in our city. But more walking and cycling will change cities, and for that, you need to adapt the infrastructure of your city. Boosting public transport is also critical. A livable city is not one where the poor have cars, but one where the rich use public transport.
Fifth, make efforts to improve the health of your citizens: Encourage people's physical activity, and the best place to encourage that is to create enough parks. Plus, more nature and green space is good for mental health and wellbeing.
Sixth, create alliances and be bold: Build alliances within your administrations, with other sectors such as education, health, etc. As a mayor, have a vision AND take action. Not only be mayors, but do as mayors!

Let's honor our military on Armed Forces Day
Saturday is Armed Forces Day, a fitting time to honor all military men, women and veterans by playing taps in Arlington National Cemetery with 200 buglers from around the country, including Charles Raven of Sherman in Chautauqua County. This special occasion will mark the 150th anniversary of the treasured bugle song taps, and is a good time to remind Western New Yorkers that it was authored and first played by a Chautauqua County Union soldier, Oliver Willcox Norton.
Norton was born in Angelica, and his family later moved to the Sherman area, where his father was a Presbyterian minister. Norton attended school in Sherman where his sister, Elizabeth, was part of a reading group that founded the Sherman Free Library.
Norton enlisted in Erie, Pa., in 1861 and later served with the 17th New York Volunteers in the Union Army. As regimental bugler, he came up with the now-famous 24 bugle notes known as taps, while experimenting with various bugle note combinations.
Norton did not read music, and relied on his ear to compose the musical sounds he wanted. His regimental commander heard Norton's bugle experiment and asked Norton to play these notes at the burial of fallen soldiers. And that is how taps came to us from the bugle of a soldier from Chautauqua County.

Everyone should wear a helmet when biking
It was nice to see bicyclists wearing helmets in a recent fitness article in The News. In contrast, it was wrong of The News to publish an article about buying bicycles that featured a photo of a young woman riding without a helmet.
Very few bike riders in Buffalo wear helmets. It is illegal in New York State for anyone under the age of 14 to ride without a helmet, but it seems that local police do not enforce this. As a physician, I have cared for many people with head injuries that may have been prevented by helmet use. The News should be more careful about the photos it selects because people are influenced by the media.

City Honors focuses too much on test scores
As a City Honors alumnus, I am shocked at the media coverage of City Honors' recent ranking as the 23rd best high school in the country by U.S. News and World Report. If a city the size of Buffalo consistently places all of its "smartest" students in one school, we should be shocked if that school was not one of the top in the country.
The real conversation we should be having is why no other Buffalo public school is listed in the entire top 2,000 high schools ranked. Even in Erie County, the next highest school ranked was Iroquois High School in Elma, at 359. Why do we focus on the one outlier and how "fantastic" it is, instead of focusing on the consistent underperformance of the remainder of the Buffalo schools?
The reality is that a City Honors education prepares you for college, and college alone. Students are hammered with the idea that you go to high school, you go to college and that's the path. In truth, for many students this can be alienating. Two close friends of mine chose to join the military and, in making this decision, felt alienated from their friends. We had never been told this was a valid option.
Even those who end up attending a four-year college often find themselves unprepared and out-of-place and transfer to another school or just drop out. They had been told how incredibly "smart" they were all their lives and when faced with professors who don't cater to the myth of City Honors students' genius, they falter.
When it comes down to it, City Honors is simply a school that exemplifies the No Child Left Behind philosophy of education -- test scores, test scores, test scores.

Home visiting programs help reduce child abuse
The recent article, "Early intervention reduces the chance of violence," is on point. The scope of child abuse and neglect is shocking. The most recent data from 2010 show that 77,000 children were abused or neglected in New York State, enough to fill Madison Square Garden nearly four times. At least 114 of these children died. In Erie County, 3,855 children were confirmed victims of abuse and neglect.
In addition to the unspeakable injuries, child abuse leads to increased crime. Not every abused child grows up to be a criminal, but survivors of abuse and neglect are nearly twice as likely to commit crimes as juveniles and to act violently as adults.
We can do more to prevent child abuse and neglect. New York State law enforcement released a report last month highlighting the research on what works. The report, Breaking the Cycle: How Home Visiting Can Reduce Child Abuse and Neglect and Prevent Crime In New York State, calls for the expansion of home visiting programs such as Erie County's Healthy Families Program and the Nurse-Family Partnership.
Voluntary home visiting programs use trained professionals to help at-risk families learn how to raise safe and healthy children and break patterns of abusive behavior. The Nurse-Family Partnership program, for example, cut child abuse and neglect by 48 percent. At age 15, children in the program were 59 percent less likely to be arrested, and the moms in the program were 61 percent less likely to be arrested. For every family served, the Nurse-Family Partnership program saves $13,000, calculated through a number of different factors including crime reduction, child abuse and neglect reduction, reduced grade school retention, special education and reduced health care costs. Unfortunately, these programs only reach 10 percent of the eligible families statewide.
Home visitation programs are essential to protect children from abuse and neglect and cut crime in the long run. Our youngest citizens are counting on us.

Abundant water supply key to Unifrax move
The history of industrial development over the past two decades within the Buffalo Niagara region is one that has been well served by the May 13 News account of the expansion of the Unifrax Corp. in the Town of Tonawanda's Fire Tower Drive Industrial Park.
One intrinsic aspect, and the paramount reason that motivated Unifrax's decision to make this move, deserves to be mentioned: its requirement for abundant water in manufacturing ceramic fibers used for many products, including automotive catalytic converters.
Tonawanda's own water supply system and low-cost rate, plus the newly built enhanced waste water treatment system, met this need.

Can I ask a few things about clicker training an older dog?(15 Posts)
She is reasonabley well trained anyway, but not always entirely reliable, and as we are considering getting a second dog, i would like to "iron out" the few not-so-great behaviours before i end up with a second one copying them all!
A few questions: she already knows the commands I want her to "learn" but she doesn't always do them, so can I say the command, click when she does it and then reward her?
I would like her to stay on her cushion quietly when someone comes to the door rather than getting all excited, sometimes barking, and trying to push her way out to see who it is. How on earth do I do this?! :D
Pulling on lead I have looked up on YouTube, so if what I've seen is right, I click and treat whenever she is walking slack, and do either the stopping or changing direction when she starts pulling, is that right?
Also - should I do the clicker charging thing ie click and treat, click and treat, for a couple of days before doing any actual training?
Defrost charge your clicker! I prefer to use cues rather than commands. Clicker training is awesome but your timing has to be spot on, as soon as you get the desired behaviour, click, then treat.
Defrost? Deffo blooming auto correct!
I think you'll need help with the cushion thing, once she understands what clicker training is all about (and I'd use the box game to get her started) then you'll need to be next to her cushion ready when your
beautiful or otherwise assistant rings the door bell as you'll need to be ready to reward her for staying there while someone else is at the door.
I say all this hypothetically as I haven't managed it with mine yet!
Bwhahahaha at "defrost charge your clicker"!!!
I was about to ask WTF is defrost charging
However, i am still going to ask what are cues compared to commands? She understands most of what I want her to do, she's just a bit sloppy about doing it ie I'll have to say sit and then give her a bit of a stern I-mean-it-young-lady look before she does it.
I will practice the cushion thing when DH comes home in the evenings as that is when she usually goes a bit wild. Ds can open the door while I click and treat ddog (assuming i can get her to stay on the cushion for even a moment). Will probably need to look into that one a bit more!
Cues is just another word for commands, I don't order my dog to do stuff, I ask him, we are a partnership not a dictatorship, we are learning together.
" I want her to "learn" but she doesn't always do them,"
If you are sure she does know the commands say it once if she does it click and treat. If she doesn't just turn away and no interaction for a few minutes.
This will speed up her response.
"cushion quietly when someone comes to the door"
this is a brilliant thing to teach. Get the mat you want the dog to settle on and put it close to you and just stare at in intently. When the dog shows any interaction with the mat eg sniffs it , walks towards it touches it click and treat with a high quality treat but put the treat on the mat. Put the mat away after each session.
Decide what behaviour you want your dog to do on the mat eg down or sit. I prefer down .
So over the next few seasons click interaction with the mat when this is constant hold the click until the dog goes down onto the mat. If the dog leaves the mat clicking and interaction stops. Usually the dog will quickly realise this and return to the mat.
When the dog "understands" the criteria eg mat go into a down you can lengthen the time before you click and treat.
Your dog is basically learning a stay on the mat. Once this is established (and it will not take long) You can add the command which may be "on your mat" or the doorbell ringing. I would teach on your mat as this can then be used in loads of situations. eg visiting the vet take your mat and the dog will be calm, visiting people take the mat and the dog will be calm and settle. etc
Re lead walking.
teach this without the lead in a small space to start with, Just click and treat when your dog comes next to you. No movement at this point just click for being close to you. When the dog gets this take one step the dog will follow and click and treat for staying with you. Gradually increase the number of steps and add a command. Once this is established off lead in quiet areas gradually add in some distractions.
Re charging the clicker if you use it on commands your dog really knows there will be no need to charge the clicker. As the dog will soon realise that the click means yummy treats. To start with always use high quality treats when using the clicker.
Enjoy yourself everything is possible when using a clicker
I recently took our 9 year old greyhound bitch to classes - with a specific focus on clicker work. I found that working in a class was very helpful as a third party is there to help you really nail the timing element and to help your technique. You also have a nice confined environment to practice recall and some lovely other dogs to practice exercises with. YY to doing the "charging" first - we did a lot of that at first and it was very helpful to me too, to simply get me used to handling clicker, treats, leads, looking at dog etc. - We practised a lot, and really enjoyed it at home, but going to the classes really helped lay the foundations. Now I'm a lot more confident with my timings and observations but would really recommend a class to just help you get going.
My top tip - I got one of those lanyards that people wear for conferences/name badges and hang my clicker off that round my neck so it's always near by and to hand, and I wasn't putting it down or losing it (v easy when middleaged and wearing glasses).
As idir says, clicker is quicker and I can't praise it enough as it strengthened the bond between me and the dog so much - our relationship has taken a quantum leap forward - it's been amazing. And so much FUN too - not to be underestimated.
Thank you for the tips and advice.
Now that I am trying to take an objective look at ddog and me/us, I have to admit that we have let quite a lot of things slide, we've just sort of adapted to what she does, rather than attempting to correct the behaviour
My only slight worry is that my dog is not particularly interested in food (treats).
We tried a brief thing with the clicker yesterday, I gave her a command, she did it, I clicked and gave her a treat. She sniffed the treat, thought about whether she fancied it, then carefully took it from me
I did however notice that within only a few clicks, she was getting the click=treat thing. I just have to make sure I'm offering very interesting treats!
Lilcamper about the cues/commands thing - are you saying or doing something different to eg "Sit!" to cue your dog to sit, or is it more that you yourself don't see it as a command as such?
I would hate to think of us as a dictatorship too, but admit that if I say "sit" then that is what I expect her to do - there could be lots of reasons for giving a command, but it's won't usually be just because I feel like it, it'll be for a very good reason that she has to do it.
It's just the word I prefer to use rather than command, cue sounds softer. I am not ordering a sit, but asking for one iyswim.
If she isn't interested in her treats, I have a fab recipe for sardine cake which most dogs can't resist!
Sardine cake sounds like something I would like
She is taking the treats, but if you have a moment to post that recipe, I'd appreciate it!
Another question: do I have to concentrate on only one thing and wait until she gets that, or can i eg. practice good lead-walking with clicker/treats outside, and then do the cushion/door thing later that day too?
I would have thought if she 'gets' one thing with the clicker, it would be ok to move on.
Sardine cake
In a microwave proof dish lightly beat 3 eggs,
Mash in a tin of sardines in oil.
Add enough plain flour to make a cake batter like paste.
Microwave on full for about 3 min until firm.
Once cool, cut into fingernail sized pieces.
Can be frozen or stored in the fridge for up to a week.
For extra stinkiness add 1/4 tsp garlic granules
To defumigate your microwave
Pierce a lemon in several places
Pop in a bowl of water
Zap on high for 10 min.
Can I ask, what is charging the clicker?
I'm using the click and treat system to train my puppy but I'm niot sure what you mean by charging.
Click for attention and treat til they associate the clicker with a treat.
Once they get the clicker = treat thing, I assume I can give the treat with a slight delay? Because at the moment, she does something right, I click and immediately give a treat because I've got them ready in my hand. But at some point I'd like to not walk with a handful of treats (plus she can smell them so she's sort of on "treat-alert").
We could move on to her doing something right, I click, then go into pocket to get treat out for her, right?

We established our publishing arm, Ormond Yard Press, in order to bring you the bigger picture, literally.
We do this through publishing a carefully curated series of elegant, ultra-large format limited edition books, each one focusing on a key moment or personality in the history of popular culture, and showcasing the work of a photographer at the very top of his or her profession. The physical size of our books may be large (18 x 24 inches when closed, 36 x 24 inches when open) but the edition sizes are reassuringly low.
Our books are like no books you will have seen before: much larger than traditional coffee table volumes, they are slim and elegant at the same time. Layouts and presentations are designed to let images shine, in a clean, uncluttered style. Less is definitely more. Presented in a handsome slipcase, each book looks like a work of art you could hang on your wall. And actually, you can, as we have developed a slide in/slide out transparent acrylic display unit for you to do just that.
Neil Young's comment on the future of books in Waging Heavy Peace pretty much sums up what Ormond Yard Press is all about: "Things are changing. I have faith that there is a place for tactile art like physical books and album covers and think that we will settle into something new, but recognisable. I do think that the future for books is in the over-the-top quality printing, paper, photography, and binding. The high price of that quality may enable the survival of the printed and bound hardcover book. "

Talking about Rolex and chronograph, people will subconsciously think of the famous Di Tonguo luxury replica watches. But apart from this, the other chronographs of the brand are equally interesting, as this article will introduce to you this Rolex Ref.3525 World War II chronograph.
Rolex Replica launched the Ref.3525 chronograph in 1939 and has been producing until 1945. Ref.3525 equipped with Valjoux 23 column wheel movement, Rolex is the first equipped with Oyster case chronograph. This is a watch that can be ordered by Allied prisoners of war, and many Swiss watch brands provided this service during World War II, but Rolex is particularly famous for that. Prisoners of war may order the watch by mail and receive it in a prison camp held in custody. Repayment of the purchase money until the end of the war, the Rolex's move to prove the brand's trust in the Allied prisoners of war (mainly British prisoners of war).
The founder of Rolex Hans Wellsdorf although born in Germany, but at the age of 24 moved to the United Kingdom, and where laid Rolex became the world's most famous watch brand foundation, I believe this experience for Rolex Allied prisoners of war to provide booking services, as well as the refusal to sell cheap replica watches to the Nazi army has a great impact.
The chronograph is 35 mm in diameter and is a little petite by today's standards. Despite the integrated speed and range function, the watch is still legible. This is due to the ingenious design of the dial, each dial reasonable layout. Pointer also played a crucial role, filled with laser material, even at night can easily identify.
This is a rare rare Rolex Ref.3525 chronograph, it is estimated that the total output of only 200 pieces of stainless steel, and the watch even with original steel bracelet. In November 2016, the watch was shot by Fu Encyt and the price was 62,500 Swiss francs (valued at 50,000 to 80,000 Swiss francs). Considering its rare rarity, the watch was a very affordable deal.

It may be added that of the twelve songs ascribed to Burns four are to be found in his published works, and five are docketed "perhaps by Burns, but doubtful." When we find this generous guess hazarded on such a well-authenticated old production as "An'ra, and his cutty gun," we are justified in the conclusion that the compilation is mere guess work from beginning to end. Taken at the worst, it must be matter of congratulation, coming from such a quarter, that the sum total credited to Burns is set down at three songs net, out of seventy-eight—rather a slender pretext for hoisting such a sky-cleaving signboard.

The pressure cooker gasket, also called the sealing ring, creates the seal between the lid and the pot to help build up the pressure and contain the food while it cooks. It is essential to proper functioning of the pressure cooker and must be in good repair for safety.Continue Reading
Newer pressure cooker gaskets consist mainly of silicon or other polymers because they provide a more secure seal. They are less likely than rubber gaskets to crack, become brittle or hold food odors. Replacing the gasket when it becomes inflexible, dries out or shows signs of damage or wear keeps the pressure cooker in good working order. Replacement pressure cooker gaskets should match the model exactly for a proper fit.Learn more about Small Kitchen Appliances

Veterinary questions? Ask a Vet for Answers ASAP
Hi,I'm Sorry to hear about your pony's problems. Can you tell me if you are giving any medicines for the laminitis now? Also have you seen any blood in her urine? ANd lastly How long has she been feeling lethargic and does she eat and drink. I will check later this afternoon to see your reply and to give you some ideas.
I will give youu some ideas ingeneral now, Laminitis can be hard to prevent if she has had earlier bouts of laminitis that have permanently damaged the feet. The only way to manage the condition is to keep the hooves trimmed and if she seems sore I have had clients give oral phenylbutazone paste as per label directions for up to 5 days in a row to help when a horse has a flare up of laminitis, Typically grain can cause a flare up so I have clients feed a low grain diet and feed grass hay rather than alfalfa to keep the diet less "hot" meaning full of energy. THis is assuming that she is on good body condition and not thin. If she is thin she may need grain for other reasons, but if she is in good shape reducing the grain may be enough.
THe frequent urination may be due to a bladder infection that can but doesn't have to causeblood in the urine. THe only way t know for sure is to catch a urine sample in a cup or bowl and tale a few tablespoons to your vet to have it checked out. If she has a urinary tract infection ( bladder infection or UTI) this will show up on the tests and she will likely need antibiotics.
THe lethargy may be due to the pssibility of a UTI or another general infection somewhere that may be causing a fever. I have had cleints take the temp using a human rectal thermometer. iit shoue be between 101-102 F If you feel comfortable you cold try this. THe fastest way to get her feeling better wold be to have a vet come out to examine her , check her temperature and try to collect a urine sample to check for UTI. If you can find a vet f that is open on the weekend that would be best so she is not hurting for 3 more days. If you can find someone to come out, it would help if oyu could have a urine sample for them so if you can get a vet out, go ahead and catch a sample if possible,. Another option if a vet can't come out, see if oyu can find one that is open so you can take a urine sample to him today. I hope this has helped. I will check later to see how things are going and if you hd a chance to get a vet to examine her. Thanks for your question and good luck.

On Thursday evening, Renaud Lavoie of TSN's French-Canadian affiliate RSN.ca reported the following: (Note: The article is presented in French).
In short, Lavoie is reporting that Columbus Blue Jackets' center Jeff Carter would like to be traded. Carter, who was acquired in June from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for Jakub Voracek and the Blue Jackets' 1st and 3rd round picks in the 2011 NHL Entry draft, is apparently frustrated to the point that a sizzling rumor had spread that he has specifically asked out of Columbus.
After the story broke, what followed was a dizzying series of damage control, denials and back-tracking from Carter, Jeff Carter's agent, Rick Curran, Blue Jackets General Manager (GM) Scott Howson, local (Columbus) and national media and Stinger, the Blue Jackets' mascot. Okay that last one wasn't true but it might as well have been true.
So, who are you to believe? I offer two thoughts:
– Where there's smoke, there's panic, and
– Something happened
Perhaps it's best to look at the primary characters and the histrionics that led to this potentially legitimate rumor, gone wild.
It was rumored that Howson was actively interested in trading for Carter during the mid-June time frame. This possibility disturbed Carter, who had just signed an 11-year, $58 million contract extension on November 13, 2010 to the extent that Curran addressed his client's concern Flyers GM Paul Holmgren. Curran claimed that Holmgren assured him that there was nothing to worry about, that they weren't interested in trading Carter, something that Carter was also reputedly told.
Carter was then traded two weeks later, much to his shock and dismay.
What followed was one of the most bizarre impersonations of Howard Hughes in recent memory. Carter could not be reached for comment about the trade and had not engaged in any contact with any of the Blue Jackets, be it their captain, Rick Nash, Howson or any members of the media. Emotions had spiraled so out of control that Nash and Howson traveled to meet with Carter to see whether Carter did indeed want to come to Columbus. Carter expressed his gratitude to the Blue Jackets organization and stated that his silence was not meant as disrespect to the city of Columbusand to the organization, that his anger was directed at the Flyers organization for not being frank to him when he was previously assured that he was to remain a Flyer.
There is another piece to this puzzle – Carter's agent, Rick Curran, represented now retired NHL defenseman Adam Foote, a former Blue Jacket. Foote's departure was a subject of great consternation to the Blue Jackets organization and their fans as reports surfaced that Foote had not only asked to be traded from Columbus back to the organization of his greatest glory, the Colorado Avalanche but that Foote had orchestrated his departure by demanding a contract extension and significant salary, one far in excess of Foote's fading value.
Curran took to dispel the reports by contacting TSN's highly-respected Insider Bob McKenzie and assure him that these claims were patently false. However, the belief was that Foote indeed did request his way out of Columbus and the ill will that was generated resonated for the years that followed, particularly when Foote traveled to play in Columbus. So, while it's difficult to ascertain whose account was correct regarding Foote's possible demand to be traded, it isn't difficult to question whether there is an adversarial history between Curran and the Blue Jackets organization.
Fast forward to the recent rumors…
The rumors that Carter had asked to be traded had elevated to the extent that Howson met with Carter to discuss the RDS report. The Columbus Dispatch's highly-respected reporter, Aaron Portzline, reported via Twitter the comments of Howson,
"Howson declined to detail the meeting," Portzline tweeted "Except to say that he and Carter are on the same page, that there has been no trade request."
However, it appears that insecurities have run high enough to warrant a GM to request to meet with a player to discuss what may have been said. These insecurities are heightened given the Blue Jackets disappointing and horrid start to their season, a season in which the Blue Jackets own the NHL's worst record at 3-13-2, this for the team with the 5th highest payroll in the NHL.
When asked to comment, Carter did state that while he did not say anything or ask for anything in way of a trade, he did say that he is not happy right now,
"I don't think anybody is happy (in the dressing room) right now," Carter said. "If anybody is happy in this room, they shouldn't be. We've won three games.
"Nobody came in here thinking it was going to happen overnight, but obviously, we didn't think it was going to be like this. We have a lot of new guys in the room, guy who haven't played together before. You know that's going to take time, but I don't think anybody thought it would turn into 3-13-2 at this point."
So if Carter did indeed ask for a trade, what may have prompted him to do so? Is it based on Carter still harboring ill will to the Flyers for trading him when previously promised that such rumors were unfounded? Is it based onColumbus' disappointing performance to date? Is it directed at the Blue Jackets team president Mike Priest and GM Howson's perceived apathy or wherewithal to rectify the current disastrous team performance to date? Is it mired in the belief that the Blue Jackets' identity and culture is one where losing is accepted if not deeply entrenched?
No matter the reason, rumors like this will continue to abound unless a serious change in the team's fortunes or a seismic shakeup in the organization and its direction occurs.Powered by Sidelines Follow paulmbanks

CNET First Look
Asus VivoBook S451LA skimps on features to save on priceThis 14-inch notebook offers a responsive touchscreen for only about $700, but cuts too many corners to be especially worthwhile.
[MUSIC] Hi, I'm Nate Ralph of CNET, and today we're checking out the ASUS VivoBook S451LA, which is kind of a [LAUGH] mouthful. So this $700, 14-inch laptop is about an inch thick, so it's, pretty thin. But it weighs five pounds, so, it's not exactly an ultra-portable machine. But, you know what, it looks, it looks pretty. It's got a brushed metal lid. And a metal body, and a, plastic base. So at, at a blush, at first blush it looks like a really, you know, like a premium machine, but then you open it up. Now, it's a $700 machine so, we aren't too surprised by the 1366 by 768 resolution, still that's kind of disappointing. That said, it is a touchscreen. And it's nice, responsive touchscreens too, which is, you know, that's, that's pretty good. Especially Windows 8, if you like touching Windows 8, you know, you won't be too disappointed by this touchscreen. Let's, talk about the keyboard and trackpad, though. Now, because it's, again, because it's a 14 inch machine, you've got a lot of space. The keyboard and the trackpad, they're both nice and wide and spacious. That's good. Unfortunately, the trackpad isn't super accurate. There are a lot of gestures baked in to sort of, you know, get you a little more familiar with Windows 8, things like swiping in from the left to switch between apps, and things like that. But, it isn't too accurate you know, as I, as I try to track around, it doesn't always catch my gestures, and that can be kind of annoying. The keyboard isn't backlit, again, for a $700 machine we sort of expect a backlit keyboard. But that's still pretty disappointing. Now, inside we've got a fourth generation core Wi-Fi processor, six gigs of ram and a 500 gig hard drive. That's decent, but, it's a 500 gig spinning platter hard drive. Now, if it were, SST that'd be phenomenal. I would have settled for a hybrid drive at this point, but, that slower drive is going to affect the performance a bit. The rest of the specs though, you know, again, they're not bad. At $700, it's not a bad price, and it's not a terrible machine. But you can do better. If you spend a little bit more, you could get machines that are either, slightly bigger, or offer a better resolution, or maybe even a discrete graphics card. This machine offers Intel integrated graphics. Which, has gotten better, admittedly, but it's not going to be good if you want to get, very much, gaming done or anything like that or even, photo editing. Now, I personally believe that Windows 8 on a notebook is greatly helped by a touchscreen, but if you don't agree then $700 is, actually, kind of a steep price for what you're getting here. I'm Nate Ralph, and be sure to read the full review on the ASUS VivoBook S451LA. Again, that's a mouthful. Read the full review at cnet.com. Thanks for watching. [MUSIC]
