- Record the information of all of the other drivers and vehicles. You can use a cell phone to take pictures of the documentation and license plates.
- You should also record the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of passengers and witnesses and record some details about the scene of the accident.
- Contact your insurance company to report the accident
What Not to do
- Do not leave the scene without stopping and exchanging information with the other drivers involved.
- Do not argue with other drivers and passengers. Wait for the police to arrive and tell them what happened.
- Do not admit fault or take responsibility, or promise to pay for any damage.
- Do not accept any offer for direct payment for damage from other
Contact a personal injury lawyer such as McNally Gervan to obtain a free consultation on the benefits available and to understand your rights after an accident

Fast-growing IT firm has booked $1B in government contracts over next 10 yearsadmin
Source: http://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/blog/2016/02/fast-growing-it-firm-has-booked-1b-in-government.html
Ventech Solutions Inc. has a measure of security as it more than doubles its Columbus staff while adding offices in other states: The government-focused IT services and software company has booked contracts worth $1 billion over the coming 10 years, founder and President Ravi Kunduru said.
And it's still bidding for more.
The company says it has not closed its books on 2015 for total revenue including work for states, but in federal contracts alone its payments spiked to $37.2 million in the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, according to the government spending tracker USAspending.gov. In fiscal 2014, it was $4.1 million. In the four months starting Oct. 1, it's been paid $14.6 million.

About the Series
What does making babies have to do with the environment?
Drawing on interviews and their experiences as social anthropologists reading and writing across academic disciplines, Katie Dow and Janelle Lamoreaux present a series of three episodes on the sociology of reproduction.
The series will explore debates about global population growth and environmental justice; the importance of concerns about future generations in environmental activism; and technological attempts to reproduce endangered and extinct species. In Future Generations, Dow and Lamoreaux show that reproduction and the environment are intimately connected, in multiple, and sometimes unexpected, ways.
This programme is authored by Dr. Katie Dow and Dr. Janelle Lamoreaux, University of Cambridge, and co-produced with The Arts & Culture Unit.
It will be broadcast as part of the second series of Modulations: Broadcasting Research in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, on Resonance 104.4fm.

Officials from Tenerife Golf – the Tenerife Tourism Corporation's golfing arm – are relishing the chance to promote the island as the host destination for next year's IGTM over the coming months at golf and travel industry events all across Europe, starting with the World Travel Market – which is being held at ExCeL London from November 3-6.
The largest of the Canary Islands and blessed with average annual temperatures of 23⁰, Tenerife is an established destination for European golfers both in the winter and summer thanks to its perfect all-year round climate.
Featuring nine different and varied layouts, Tenerife also offers 70km of beaches and a wide range of cultural highlights and activities both on and off the water, making it the ideal location for a golf break.
Carlos Alonso, president of the Tenerife Government (Cabildo), said: "Tenerife is now firmly established as a destination for European golfers. Not only will it be a great privilege for us to host IGTM, it gives Tenerife an unrivalled opportunity to showcase itself as a winter and summer destination to the golf tour operator industry and at key golfing events around Europe. "Beyond golf, we believe we can offer tourists an exceptional and varied visitor experience to our island. >From the breathtaking views from the peak of Mount Teide to our world-class tourist attractions which include whale and dolphin watching, star gazing and Europe's largest water park, Tenerife really does have something for everyone to enjoy.
"The Tenerife government is dedicated to the continued promotion and growth of golf tourism, and hosting IGTM is an important part of that investment."
For Peter Walton, president and chief executive of IAGTO, the decision to name Tenerife as the host venue in 2015 constitutes travelling full circle with IGTM.
Walton, a former UK director of the Tenerife Tourist Board, explained: "It was while gazing out over the Atlantic, after a round of golf on the ethereal island of La Gomera, just off the coast of Tenerife, that I hatched the idea of both the International Golf Travel Market and IAGTO way back in 1996. So the 18th IGTM in Tenerife will be a 'coming home' of sorts for me to the place where my journey through the golf tourism industry really began.
"Tenerife, now with eight courses, can be proud of having become an established and important golf destination, and one that has consistently delivered an exceptional level of golf experience."
Next year will be the first time that Tenerife will have the honour of staging IGTM, with the world's premier event for golf tourism suppliers, buyers and media taking place at the Magma Conference Centre in Costa Adeje from October 5-8, 2015, and leading figures in the golf industry have given their full backing to the decision.
Tom Watt, product and commercial manager at Supertravel Golf, said: "This decision is well overdue, well deserved and recognition for the support that Tenerife has given to the golf tourism industry over the years.
"The island is one of our premier golf destinations, and its fantastic array of high quality accommodation, excellent golf courses and fantastic climate make Tenerife the number one for Spain."
Andrew Smith, director of product at Your Golf Travel, added: "We're delighted to be heading to Tenerife in 2015 and the decision is a deserved reward for all the hard work that has gone in to establishing the island as a key destination for golfers across Europe.
"With a wide variety of activities and attractions to choose from on and off the course, It's no surprise to us that the number of golfers choosing Tenerife for an overseas golf break has risen year on year, and with an increasing number of international flight connections, that trend is set to continue in the years to come."
Tenerife has been a leading supporter of IGTM since its inception and was confirmed as the host venue for the 2015 International Golf Travel Market at the end of this year's event, which was held in Lake Como, Italy, at the end of October.
The show was the latest in a hectic few months for Tenerife Golf that has seen them travel to all corners of the continent and exhibit at a wide range of European Tour events and golf trade shows.
Tenerife has won widespread praise as an all-year-round golfing destination this year having hosted the Tenerife Open de Espana Femenino in September as well as staging the Fred Olsen Challenge de España on the Men's European Challenge Tour, at La Gomera, in May.
The island features nine different and varied layouts: Buenavista in the west; Real Club de Golf de Tenerife in the north; and Golf Costa Adeje, Abama, Las Americas, Golf del Sur, Amarilla, and Los Palos in the south. Tecina Golf is a 40-minute ferry ride from the mainland on the beautiful island of La Gomera.

No matter who you are or how closely your life hews to your ideal vision of what your life should be like, you probably want something you don't have - or you have it, but not enough of it, or it doesn't look exactly how you hoped it would look. Your dream man or woman might occasionally be a nightmare. The riches you hoped would come your way thanks to that promotion are great but the things you have to do and the hours you have to work to get them make you feel absolutely drained at the end of the day. It can feel like the Lord has opened a door but closed a window.
Still, it's important to have goals, not least because every so often when you get hold of one of them, sometimes it's everything you hoped it would be. Sometimes you really do have a moment where you feel like you reached the pot of gold at the end of the figurative rainbow, and for a little while, you know in your heart that everything is going to be all right.
Meanwhile, striving toward the right goal will fill you with purpose and contentment that are a special kind of happiness far more fulfilling than pleasure can ever be. So let's see what you truly desire, in the hope that it might just help you get it!

Reviewed from galleys R 5-7 yrs
Cat is back, and he's not pleased to learn that he must forgo his nap to act as substitute teacher at Kitty School. After attempting to pawn the task off on Dog, Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy—nods to prior titles Here Comes Valentine Cat (BCCB 2/16), Here Comes Santa Cat (BCCB 12/14), Here Comes the Easter Cat (BCCB 1/14), and Here Comes the Tooth Fairy Cat (BCCB 9/15)—Cat reluctantly accepts his assignment. Fortunately, with a little encouragement, Cat quickly finds his rhythm in the classroom and takes the familiar activities of music, building blocks, and art to the next level by rocking out with a full kitty band, building a fountain that spouts fish, and making an enormous mess painting the classroom. Rueda's warm-toned ink and color pencil illustrations delightfully capture Cat's reluctance and sarcasm as he communicates nonverbally through illustrated signs and animated facial expressions. A mix of full-page spreads that hilariously exhibit Cat's mischief and illustrations that humorously mirror Underwood's subtle text bring Cat's day at Kitty School to life. The narrator's playful and, at times, almost parental tone (after Cat begins painting red paw prints on the classroom walls the narrator asks "Cat, do you think that's a good idea?") will have audiences cheering for Cat to make the right decisions as they infer what he will do next based on his dramatic behaviors and clever signs. Longtime fans of Cat will welcome this latest installment in the collection and those new to Cat will come to love him as much as the kitties do by the end of their school day together.

They find us yet in happy places,
they find us when we come as one.
The war they bring finds peace at peak;
they stoop so low as to pluck budding dreams.
Our defenceless innocence,
strengthens the cowardice below their skins.
Their wish is to find a backdoor for their might,
but all they find are jolly gates left ajar.
Today, our tears find strength as a flowing river;
our shrilling cries are stern, yet solemn tunes of love.
The door by which they prey our frailty,
is the path through which our oneness runs.
Our victory is in the truth that this path remains:
unbroken, unsoiled.
As our peace finds strength
and our love grows shield.

While Kvyat exited in last place in Q1, Sainz finished that session 11 spots and 0.8s up the road, and then came within fractions of a second of booking a place in Q3 as he qualified 13th - leaving the Russian certain that car trouble was the only explanation for such a disparity in performance.
"The car just wasn't driveable today," he reflected. "It was very hard to get my… to get the car around. Something was wrong with it I'm sure - 100 percent.
"Many things have to be changed. The wind didn't help but that's the same for everyone... it was just a very hard car to drive. You can't be that far off on a track you know quite well.
"I don't think it will be much better tomorrow, but we will try to see what we can learn from today. Maybe tomorrow it will [improve] because the Friday long pace didn't seem too bad. We need to try and pick up anything we can."
While Kvyat has started from the pit lane several times during his 61-race career, Sunday's Grand Prix in Spain is set to be the first time he has ever lined up at the back of the grid.

Abstract: :
Purpose: Current adaptive optics (AO) flood-illuminated retina cameras operate at very low frame rates, acquiring retinal images below 1/10th Hz and deterring their deployment in a clinical setting. To this end, we have developed a novel CCD-based AO camera that achieves significantly higher acquisition rates. The accrued benefit for quick focusing and surveying the microscopic retina was examined. Methods: A flood-illuminated retina camera equipped with AO was developed for imaging microscopic structures in the living human retina. The AO system consisted of a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor and 37-actuator Xinetics mirror, which provided dynamic correction of the eye's wave aberrations. A multimode optical fiber system coupled to a superluminescent diode (SLD) provided uniform illumination of a 1 deg patch of retina. A back-illuminated scientific-grade CCD captured aerial images of the retina whose acquisition was synchronized to the strobing fiber light source. Results: Cone photoreceptors at the fovea were observed in several subjects. The AO system was found to reduce the wavefront error across a 6 mm pupil to about 0.1 microns RMS in several subjects and provided up to 22 wavefront corrections per second. A continuous frame rate exceeding four retinal images per second was achieved, a factor of at least 40 higher than current AO flood-illuminated cameras. Short four-image bursts were successfully collected at rates exceeding 500 per second and revealed temporal dynamics of the microscopic retina. The inherent parallel nature of the CCD precluded intra-image registration that is required for scanning retina cameras to offset retina motion artifacts. Conclusions: An AO retina camera employing a flood-illuminated light source achieved rapid image collection. This was found to permit easier focusing and exploration of the living retina at the cellular level.

My son would call this post "cheating" because I'm not actually writing anything. But it's been one of those weeks, you know? I'm deep into a travel writing project about Austria--which looks like an AMAZINGLY beautiful country, by the way--and have had an unsual number of circumstances draw me away from my writing time. So, I decided to share this funny video my mother sent me instead. It cracked me up! It's titled The Perfect Daughter. Enjoy!
Stories about travel, life, writing and parenting my college-age children (who think they don't need any more parenting). Oh! And the occasional amazing photograph (I like to play pro photographer on vacations.)

A funny video is a fine substitute for a regular post...tell your son I don't call it cheating! ;D
Austria was one of my favorite places to visit when I went through Europe. Salzburg is one of the quaintest and loveliest places I've ever been! Lucky you to be writing about it. :)

|(1) Each resident of a dwelling unit who is present within that dwelling unit or upon the premises of that dwelling unit when such sound is amplified or generated shall be responsible for the generation of that sound or noise pursuant to the provisions of this section. However, it shall be a specific defense to a violation of this provision that a resident of the dwelling unit attempted to remedy the situation and was precluded from doing so or was incapacitated or otherwise unable to remedy the situation.
|(2) The provisions of this section do not apply to sounds generated by authorized emergency vehicles, to vehicle horns sounded as a danger warning signal, to sound made on property belonging to or leased or managed by a federal, state, or county governmental body other than the city and made by an activity of the governmental body or by others pursuant to a contract, lease, or permit granted by such governmental body, to audible alarm police alarm devices operated in conformity with Chapter 4-16, "Police Alarm Systems," B.R.C. 1981, or to fire alarms.
(c) No person shall make any trash pickup with a truck which has a compactor or the capacity to raise and dump dumpsters in any area zoned for residential or business uses between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m., and no employer shall fail to prevent its employee from violating this subsection while the employee is driving a trash truck owned by or under the control of the employer.

Such variances shall be granted only if the applicant can demonstrate to the managers satisfaction:
|(1) That the location in question is sufficiently removed from any residential use that the noise of trash removal will not disturb anyone in their residence, including, without limitation, hotel and motel accommodations; or
|(2) That the location cannot feasibly be serviced during permitted hours, and that the variance is the least necessary to permit trash removal while still assuring nearby residents reasonable nocturnal quiet.
2People v. Fitzgerald, 194 Colo. 415, 573 P.2d 100 (1978).
Ordinance Nos. 5660 (1994); 7151 (2001); 7349 (2004).

Under no circumstances shall amplified sound be considered as construction work activity.
|(3) Sound from a source regulated by this subsection:
|(A) Sound from a source on private property shall be measured at or inside the property line of property other than that on which the sound source is located; or
(B) Sound from a source on public property may be measured on that property so long as the measurement is taken at least twenty-five feet from the source, or it may be measured at or inside the property line of property other than the public property on which the sound source is located; and
|(C) For the purposes of this paragraph, a leasehold shall be deemed a property, and its boundary shall be deemed a property line.
(d) All sound measurements shall be made on a sound level meter that meets ANSI specification S1.4-1974 for Type I or Type II equipment. The manufacturers published indication of compliance with such specifications is prima facie evidence of compliance with this subsection.
(e) It is a specific defense to a charge of violating this section that:
|(1) The sound was made by an authorized emergency vehicle when responding to an emergency call or acting in time of emergency;
|(2) The sound was made within the terms of a parade, fireworks display, or temporary street closure permit issued by the city manager, or was made by the rendering of military honors at a funeral by a military funeral honors detail;

|(A) Additional time is necessary for the applicant to alter or modify the activity or operation to comply with this section; or
|(B) The activity, operation or sound source will be of temporary duration, and even with the application of the best available control technology cannot be done in a manner that would comply with this section. In either case, the manager must also find that no reasonable alternative is available to the applicant. If the manager grants a variance, the manager shall prescribe such reasonable conditions or requirements as are necessary to minimize adverse effects upon the community or the surrounding neighborhood.
(f) This section shall not be construed to conflict with the right of any person to maintain an action in equity to abate a noise nuisance under the laws of the state.
(g) Each offense of violation of this section constitutes a separate and distinct violation.
Ordinance Nos. 4981 (1986); 5206 (1989); 5271 (1990); 5821 (1996); 5930 (1997); 7083 (2000); 7152 (2001).

WALES player of the year Chris Gunter hopes Chris Coleman can be persuaded to stay on as national manager after Monday night's World Cup heartache.
The 1-0 defeat to the Republic of Ireland means the Euro 2016 semi-finalists will not be going to Russia next summer.
Coleman has previously stated that this campaign would be his last but Gunter says the players want him to lead them to Euro 2020.
"I think everyone in Wales – fans and players – would want to see him 100 per cent stay on," said Gunter.
"He's been a massive part of what we've done and he is the man to take us forward hopefully.
"If the powers can be can give him a really good contract and make him stay he can carry on being the greatest Welsh manager of all time."
Asked if the players would try to persuade Coleman to stay, Newport-born Gunter said: "International football is weird. We all have to go back to our clubs now and we'll be told what's happening in the next two or three weeks.
"But I'm sure the message would be from the whole squad that we want him to sign a new contract.
"We want him to stay because what he's given this nation is something that's never been done before. Why you'd want him to leave I'm not too sure."
But Gunter insists that the future is still bright for Wales, whoever is in the dugout.
"It's sad regardless of what happens now because we've put so much effort in the last 12 months or so," said the Reading defender.
"We've all had disappointments in football before and you get a lot more lows than highs.
"That's why you need to enjoy the good times and use these defeats to move forward.
"You always seem to have another chance to do something and we want to build on what's happened in this campaign.
"It's not the end of Welsh football, we've got something we can use going forward. We're not going to go away, we're here to build on what we've done.
"There's young players coming through and a very nice blend in the squad.
"Yes, it's the end of the campaign but there will be another one around the corner and we'll be back here having more big nights. I'm sure about that."

March 08, 2016 10:00 ET
Expands Global Licensing Agreement and Manufacturing Facilities
EDMONTON, AB--(Marketwired - March 08, 2016) - Exciton Technologies Inc. ("Exciton"), creator of the patented infection-fighting Silver Oxysalts technology, has made a pivotal turn to profitability through expansion of its license agreement with Crawford Healthcare Ltd. ('Crawford'), the UK's fastest growing wound care company. Exciton has been working with Crawford since 2013 but, following what Crawford calls "a dramatic market response to the use of this patented technology in both the US and the UK," the companies have now expanded to an exclusive global arrangement for a broader range of products. Commenting on the deal, Crawford's Healthcare CEO, Richard Anderson said, "We now have an unrivalled antimicrobial platform to tackle the issue of secondary infections faced by clinicians the world over."
According to a national stakeholder roundtable meeting of key opinion leaders, wound care takes a surprising economic toll of $3.9 billion each year in Canada alone. "Wounds are a major and under-recognized health issue reducing the quality of life for millions," states Rod Precht, President and Founder of Exciton Technologies. Exciton's flagship technology has challenged the industry to take a closer look at silver for the treatment of serious wounds such as burns and chronic ulcers. "Sales have been growing steadily and we believe the expansion of our partnership with Crawford will catapult this next generation of wound care products to become the standard of care."
Exciton remains the exclusive manufacturer to Crawford, requiring an expansion of its operation at TEC Edmonton to meet the increasing demand. The expansion also facilitates commercialization of new applications utilizing the Silver Oxysalts platform.
"At TEC Edmonton, we measure our success by how well our clients are doing, and Exciton has always been one of our success stories," said Chris Lumb, CEO of TEC Edmonton, an accelerator for early stage technology companies. "Their people exemplify the best qualities of Edmonton-based innovation and entrepreneurship. We're honored to continue to support their growth as they prepare to expand their manufacturing facilities."
About Exciton Technologies Inc.Exciton Technologies is a commercial stage advanced materials development and manufacturing company, based in Edmonton, Alberta focused on the commercialization of technology for preventing and controlling infection. Exciton has developed a portfolio of proprietary processes to incorporate its Silver Oxysalts (Ag Oxysalts™) technology into a range of products, including Exsalt® T7 and SD7 dressings, targeting the advanced wound care market.
Silver Oxysalts technology is based on a unique compound containing higher oxidation states of silver (+2 and +3), which are more effective than lower states (0 and +1). Silver has a long history of safety and efficacy as a topical wound treatment.

2008 Citywide Teacher of the Year
Erika C. Hitchcock
Erika C. Hitchcock, a grade 3 8 visual arts teacher at the Old Donation Center (ODC), was today named the citywide 2008 Virginia Beach City Public Schools Teacher of the Year. In a surprise visit made to her classroom this morning, Superintendent James G. Merrill and Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction Christine Caskey made the announcement and presented her with an engraved school bell and other congratulatory gifts.
Chosen from an initial pool of 87 teachers representing their schools, Hitchcock was one of ten semifinalists selected to receive classroom visits by the Teacher of the Year Selection Committee. The field was further narrowed when five finalists, of whom Hitchcock was one, were individually interviewed by the Committee. According to Selection Committee Chairperson Lavern Chatman, each of the finalists was an outstanding, creative teacher. However, it was Hitchcock's ability to create lessons that assisted students in becoming active learners who engaged in interdisciplinary inquiry through the visual arts that led to her selection. Moreover, according to Chatman, Hitchcock uses the visual arts as a tool to guide her students to expand their knowledge base, consider the world with a critical perspective, appreciate diversity, practice personal reflection and think beyond the obvious.
Erica Hitchcock is a truly outstanding teacher," said Chatman. "Not only is she a shining example to her peers, but she is dedicated to providing her students stimulating conceptual units of study that incorporate numerous community resources. For example, Hitchcock was able to generate $6,500 with the help of community supporters to provide such artistic endeavors as bringing actors from the Lion King, famous book illustrators, and local artists in various media to the students at ODC."
Hitchcock has been a teacher for five years, with all of these years dedicated to Virginia Beach City Public Schools and ODC. However, prior to becoming a teacher, she was a graphic designer in the business world for nine years. She made the switch to education when she decided she wanted a profession with more interaction and connections with others. Once the decision was made, she devoted herself to bringing to students visual arts experiences that might otherwise be out of their reach.
In only five years, Hitchcock has served in many leadership roles, including chair of several initiatives for visual arts including ODC testing, technology, proposal developing, and newsletters for the visual arts program. Remarkably, she has stepped forward not only to raise thousands of dollars for special programs, field trips, and collaborative units, but she has also organized numerous student exhibit opportunities and served as an evaluator for high school student art candidates to the Governor's School and to the VBCPS Visual and Performing Arts Academy. Her professional associations are also numerous, among them the National, Virginia, and Tidewater Art Education Associations, Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society, and the Golden Key International Honor Society.
Hitchcock is the recipient of a variety of awards and recognitions, including the Virginia Art Education Tidewater Region Elementary Art Educator of the Year for 2005, an Exemplary Publication Award for 2004 for the Visual Arts Program Newsletter, an award for her contributions to the Virginia Beach Art Program, and a Tagged by the Superintendent award in 2005.
Hitchcock holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in art education from Old Dominion University and gifted endorsement from the University of Virginia. She is currently enrolled in the Master of Arts Education program at Virginia Commonwealth University.

For more specific analysis, please see our recent publication on the Euro 2016 football tournament:
Piggin, J., Tlili, H. & Louzada, B. (2017) How does health policy affect practice at a sport mega event? A study of policy, food and drink at Euro 2016. International Journal of Sport Policy and Politics. 739-751.
The PHANSMER Research Group has successfully completed data collection at
the Euro 2016 Football Championships in France,
Olympic sponsorship activation by UK food and drink sponsors,
the 2016 Olympic Games in Brazil,
and the 2016 Paralympic Games in Brazil.
We have sent the following letters to the committees bidding for the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. We explain the failure of Rio2016 to implement a healthy eating policy and urge the organisations to prioritize healthy food and drink for spectators:
We are honoured that Dr Darren Powell has joined our international and interdisciplinary research group. Dr Powell's research interrogates the role of corporations – mostly food companies – and charities in schools. This includes a critical analysis of the various healthy lifestyles education resources and programmes that are provided free to primary schools and the ways in which certain notions of health are reproduced in ways that align with the private sectors' best interests, but not necessarily the children's. You can see some of his recent research here: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13573322.2016.1192530
We are happy to report our first article, examining health promotion at the Euro 2016 Football Tournament, is available here:
If you do not have access to the article, you can contact firstname.lastname@example.com for a copy.
The PHANSMER project group is diversifying our project. We are not only critiquing existing ways that food and drink is provided to spectators, but also exploring other ways of doing so.
Betty Jackson, a researcher in the group, recently attended the 2017 World Indigenous Games in Canada, where more 2,000 athletes from 30 countries to celebrate indigenous culture. There Betty sampled a wide variety of food and drink, and had the opportunity to interview Chef Shane Chartrand, who hosted and curated an event focusing on indigenous cuisine.
Shane discusses the need for more nutritious food in indigenous communities, the potential for change by sports event organisers. Given the failure of Rio 2016 and Euro 2016 to offer healthy and nutritious food and drink, it is clear there is a need to radically rethink the typical ultra-processed environment of sport event sites.
You can click on the link below to see Shane and Betty discuss the major issue of providing healthy food and drink, especially to young people. https://photos.app.goo.gl/WkXJXFpUvVHjYBT22
Thank you to both Shane and Betty.
We have sent the following letters to the committees bidding for the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. We explain the failure of Rio2016 to implement a healthy eating policy and urge the organisations to prioritize healthy food and drink for spectators:
Our international and interdisciplinary study is examining how physical activity and nutritional health are promoted at sports mega events.
The PHANSMER Project (Physical Activity and Nutrition at Sport Mega Events Research) involves researchers from Loughborough University in the UK, France's Paris Descartes University, Brazil's Federal University of Minas Gerais and Universidade Federal do Paraná- UFPR.
Dr Joe Piggin says: "These health issues are so complex that we are using an interdisciplinary approach to understand more about them. We draw on theories and ideas of public policy, marketing, sociology, event management and nutrition. An important dimension is the international aspect. Mega sports events such as the Euro 2016 and the Olympic Games are significant global events where certain messages about consumption and health are disseminated to hundreds of millions of people. With the current issues regarding physical inactivity and poor nutrition, this study hopes to inform better health promotion during these events."
"It seems fair to say that a whole generation was not totally inspired by recent mega events, so we need to examine the political, economic and marketing processes involved in hosting these events."
"It is clear that companies leverage their sponsorship many months before events start. For example, three months before the start of the Olympics, cereal companies and yoghurt companies were associating themselves with the Olympic Games. Given that foods high in sugar are often criticised for their contribution to poor health, these sponsorship contracts need to be carefully managed and critiqued."
"This is obviously a contentious issue. The World Health Organisation has been very critical of food and drink companies being involved with sports. The WHO has told all member states that settings where children and adolescents gather (such as sports facilities and events) should be free of marketing from unhealthy foods and sugar-sweetened beverages. This obviously has implications for mega sports events, which are often used to inspire young people. Clearly there are tensions and conflicting interests to manage. On one hand companies are lambasted for being promoting unhealthy products to consumers. And on the other hand, corporate sponsors are often lauded as being essential in making the events happen at all."
On international collaboration: "To have experts from Paris Descartes University, Federal University of Minas Gerais and the Universidade Federal do Paraná is brilliant. They provide insider knowledge about their cultures and can also help disseminate the findings amongst their own communities. Collaboration on a project like this is vital!"
Areas of focus: In this decade, there has been an expansion and intensification of interventions to produce more physically active populations. This has coincided with growing concern about a range of more attention given to various hazards and harms associated with participating in sport.
Physical activity and nutrition promotion is complex. This international and cross-cultural interdisciplinary research will focus on four important stakeholder groups:
1) Public policy makers and their ongoing responses to changing attitudes towards health.
2) Food and drink companies which sponsor mega events and which might be affected by, and try to affect government public health policies.
3) The messages disseminated by mega event organisers, who both accommodate food and drink sponsors and often promote messages about healthy living.
4) The public, who are the ultimate recipients of messages about public health.
Dr Haifa Tlili, from Paris Descartes University, said: "This intercultural study is trying to understand how health problems are managed in different cultural contexts and to show how different groups manage and negotiate it.
"Health promotion always takes place within a broader context, often involving political pressure, conflict and tension. We explore how various stakeholders (such as sport, political, health and economic partners) are able to balance what are, at times, competing interests. Further, we ask, does policy rhetoric always turn into practical action?
"The study's strength is its sociological emphasis. The objective includes understanding and raising awareness of how health issues are managed at sports events. We position individuals at the core of the study because, in this field, economic logic can dominate and make us forget the complex reality. For example, what is the impact of different stakeholders on spectators at Euro 2016 and elsewhere? And what is the effect of local health laws at these events? Are they compromised?
"We also examine how social traditions are managed in relation to companies which are often afforded a large amount of control at sports events. For example, our analysis shows that at Euro 2016, many food products were far from traditional French food habits/tastes. Examining this will help us clarify what visions of health are presented at sports events."

Can you use laundry detergent to wash dishes?
This was the question that I received from my very concerned friend one afternoon while at work. My immediate and uncontrollable reaction was to giggle a little bit. See I only graduated from UCLA a year ago; my friends and I are still getting a hang of the whole cleaning thing. I mean it's only our second year in an apartment. Once I stopped giggling , I responded, "Amanda, you thought you could use laundry detergent to clean dishes?!" I have been involved with Grab Green since I was 14 years old and never stopped to think that I might know a little more about the cleaning do's and don'ts then most 23 year olds. Did she think that you could use laundry detergent to clean dishes?
I was relieved to find out that my friend had accidentally put laundry detergent in the dishwasher. Her apartment had actually been using Grab Green laundry detergent pods in the kitchen for a couple months before they realized the mistake they had been making! The dishes were coming out clean and they were enjoying the fragrance. To them, the product seemed to be working just fine. Luckily they had been using Grab Green products. So, after Amanda asked me many times in many different ways "Can laundry detergent be used in the dishwasher?" "Is it safe to use in the dishwasher? "Are we going to get sick?," I was able to tell her that she would be okay!
Because Grab Green products are non-toxic, my friends were completely fine! They had no negative side-effects even though they had been making this mistake for a couple of months.
No, you should not use laundry detergent in the dishwasher. But it is reassuring that there is a product out there, that when you make this somewhat common little mistake, will not have a consequential or sickening reaction.
Dishwashing detergent and laundry detergent are two different products because each has a unique formula making it most effective for the job it is named for. So, while Grab Green products are safer than most and are non-toxic, I recommend sticking to dishwasher detergent in the kitchen.

Kitsound KitSound X-Dock 2 Lightning Connector Clock Radio Dock for iPhone 5 White
Introducing the KitSound™ XDock2
Made specifically for devices with a lightning connection, this docking station will wake you up with great sound, and its compact, stylish design means it looks good too.
Clever Design
You'd be forgiven for thinking that radio alarms are a relatively modern invention, but it's believed that ancient Greek philosopher Plato used a large water clock to wake him for early morning lectures. The KS XDock2 is a bit more sophisticated than that, though. It may be small enough to sit comfortably on your bedside table, but this clock dock is surprisingly loud for its size. And as well as charging your iPhone or iPod so that it's ready for the day ahead, it also automatically syncs the time from your device the instant you dock it.
Wake How You Want
Whether you choose to wake to the FM radio, the buzzer, or your favourite iTunes, the XDock2 gives you the flexibility to wake up how you want to. There's also a 'Shhh' button for an extra 8 minutes sleep, because, let's face it, no one gets up first go do they?
About KitSound
We are craftspeople. We are musicians. We are KitSound™ and we all commit ourselves to achieving one shared goal - bringing people closer to their music. By understanding music we stay true to its craft. Pure, rich, incredible sound. We settle for nothing less.

As reported by The New York Times, the ex-head of Donald Trump's campaign, Paul Manafort, was ordered to surrender to federal authorities.
Charges are also brought against his former business partner Rick Gates.
Reuters reports that Manafort has already arrived at the FBI office in Washington. This information was confirmed by The Wall Street Journal.

— Capital Journal (@WSJPolitics) October 30, 2017
According to Reuters, Manafor and Gates are charged under 12 articles, including money laundering and conspiracy against the United States.
These are the first charges brought by the commission of the special prosecutor Robert Mueller. He is investigating the likely intervention of Russia in the presidential elections in the United States in 2016.
Manafort was fired as Trump's campaign chairman in August 2016. The indictments against Manafort and Gates were largely based on activities disclosed in August 2016 by The Associated Press, which reported that the pair had directly orchestrated a covert Washington lobbying operation on behalf of ruling pro-Russian political party in Ukraine at the time of the presidency of the previous president of the country, Viktor Yanukovich.
In addition, Manafort is suspected in cooperation with Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska. According to the Associated Press, Manafort could have lobbied interests of Deripaska in the United States, as well as interests of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Additionally, the developers behind iS Clinical® recognize most patients have busy lives, so they created a powerful skin care regimen that is also streamlined, typically requiring only one or two steps to complete yet offering a wealth of immediate and long-term benefits.
LATISSE® Eyelash Enhancer
Eyelashes not only frame the eyes for a lovely, feminine effect, they also protect these sensitive features from potentially irritating particles that could enter the eyes without them. When an individual has insufficient or inadequate eyelashes, the condition is called hypotrichosis. Fortunately, an innovative topical treatment can allow patients to grow longer, fuller, darker lashes in a matter of weeks. FDA-approved LATISSE® is designed to increase the number of lashes by stimulating the hair during the growth phase. The formula, which is a topical prescription applied once daily at home to the upper eyelids along the lash line, should gradually produce longer lashes as well as a greater number of lashes over time. Initial effects are often visible after about four weeks, with full results typically apparent after approximately 16 weeks. Once optimal results are achieved, the frequency of application can be reduced.
Any patient who is unsatisfied with the fullness, length, or inadequacy of her lashes may benefit from this treatment. Our friendly and knowledgeable skin care specialists can help you determine if LATISSE® eyelash enhancer is right for your goals.

First round is for acceptance. Good luck!
1. the definition of sexual violence differs between person to person to the extent of which fairly light-hearted jokes can be taken as sexual violence. imagine a scenario where anime gets banned because a joke that didnt strike the authorized personnel right, thats simply unfair- considering the effort anime creators put in- for a whole episode , possibly series, to get banned from the general public because of that.
2. some mangas are for adult audience, so sexual violence is expected (for some extent) , most of it is clearly shown as wrong and very traumitizing making banning them counter-effective, as it implies the ban is used to lower awareness of problems that could occur in he general public.
3. the idea of banning manga/anime is bad because said series can have a sexual violence in one episode and then the next episode is completely fine, however the you cant show an episode without context , and so you practically just banned completely fine content.
dispite all the previously mentioned stuff, i have to concede that anime/manga intended for kids (lets define kids as ages 5-11) including sexual violence to be shown to said audience.
I honestly don't know why Pro just made my argument for me. There isn't sexual iolence in kid anime and manga. That's why there's a rating system.
Thanks for making my case!

Flints residents are not able to consume their faucet water without a filter. In April 2014, the city federal government, which then was controlled by the state, switched water sources from Lake Huron to the Flint River in an effort to save cash.
The river was so polluted and destructive that it caused lead pipelines leading to homeowners houses to degrade, contaminating the drinking water in the city. The state was put under federal and state states of emergency situation. The federal state of emergency situation lifted in August, though some federal companies stay in the city.
Current test results reveal houses still have high quantities of lead in their drinking water and just a couple ofjust a few houses in the city have had their lead pipelines eliminated.
Last week, the Senate overwhelmingly passed a water facilities bill that consisted of a $220 million deal for Flint and cities like it. Included because offer is $100 million to any state experiencing a drinking water emergency situation, $70 million to back protected loans to upgrade tidy water and drinking facilities and $50 million in funding for health programs to attend to and avoid the impacts of lead direct exposure.
A Department of Energy program for sophisticated lorries that would be eliminated spends for the deal. The program is popular amongst Michigan lawmakers because it helps the automobile companies based in their state.

On this Thanksgiving, I am comfortable at home with two precious lively children. I am surrounded by so much love for me, for them and pouring from them. I am so grateful.
I am also painfully aware of a big world of hurt, pain and conflict raging both loudly and softly outside. I am aware of mothers grieving for their sons, mothers worrying about how to talk to their sons and protect them or finally (hopefully) facing the privilege of not having to plan for that particular talk at all.
I am aware of the talks I will have to have with my daughter. Of the ways the world is making that even more crucial and terrifying and immediate. And already thinking about what that means for how I need to raise my son.
My heart is full for the parents and children and people angry and scared and suffering.
Today, however, I am also awash in the beauty of what I have been given. Of the life (and lives) I have created.
Right now, I am piled up in bed with a sated newborn, a snuggly toddler who woke up too early and my husband serving as my matching bookend, keeping the whole act together and holding us close.
Right now, we are safe and warm and happy. Even sheltered, from the weather and the world.
We will face that bigger storm too, but today, I'm holding tight the ones I love. And I'm happy. For that, I am grateful.
