To think, we're still two days away from the draft and whatever trades might accompany that and we're more than a week away from NBA free agency and the frenzy that creates.
And we've got the best team in the East with no management to speak of, the best and most powerful player in the game ticked off about it and two all-stars perhaps on the trade block and teams scurrying to put deals together to perhaps acquire them.
Minor firestorm here last night that was fueled by the typical tweeter nonsense and we get to ask Masai questions this morning that I guarantee won't yield a snippet of hard news.
You know what they say in some places about the weather?
If you don't like it, wait 10 minutes and it'll change.
Article Continued Below
The same holds for the NBA these days and it's a wonderfully bumpy ride that's at least a wee bit tiring.
But I guess it beats being bored, although bored can be a welcome respite every now and then.
Anyway …
Getting back to the one leftover from the mail on Sunday, there's this one that seems quite interesting given what's transpired in the last 48 hours or so, league-wide:
Looking ahead to next week's draft, decisions coming out of the free agency frenzy and any possible trades along the way, as a benchmark, who would you guess will be the starting 5 for the Raptors at the start of next season, and who will no longer be with the team?
Thanks, Phil.
If there's one thing I've learned over the years it's that trying to guess in June before the draft what a team will look like when training camp begins in September truly is an exercise in futility.
But I'm a guy who likes a little futility in his life so what the hell.
First, the guess, and educated though it is, it's still a guess:
Kyle Lowry, DeMar DeRozan, Norm Powell, Serge Ibaka, Jonas Valanciunas.
Now, the provisions:
Last season ended poorly and in mid-May everyone was tired of everyone. The players were tire of each other, Masai was tired of the style of play and the way things ends, Dwane was tired to some degree with everything and it was time for a bit of a break from each other and the situation.
They had lost ugly to a very good team playing out of its mind, Lowry was hurt and ended up watching the last two games and that sucked and they had the misfortune of getting Cleveland in the second round instead of the third.
This is not new, it is not unusual and five or six weeks since, maybe some feelings have calmed. Time and distance will do that. Thankfully.
But here's one more thing: You never know. Maybe the disappointment at the end of the season doesn't dissipate and when July rolls around there's nothing to but change, either subtly or remarkably.
We're not there yet and it truly is fluid. There are conversations going on all the time. Remember the dinner out in L.A. just before the Finals that we wrote about? Lowry and DeRozan and Dwane, Norm was around and so was Delon? Those types of chats are meant to test the waters, see how everyone feels about the circumstance and each other. It's why Masai's been talking to and meeting with players and coaches and agents almost daily since the day after the season ended, to see how everyone's doing and feeling before deciding on his course of action.
It's like it's always been, though. A moveable feast of somewhat endless possibilities and that come and go almost daily.
What was true and possible yesterday might not be true and possible today and who knows what opportunities are going to present themselves tomorrow.
At this time yesterday, the Cavaliers were going to find a way to add Paul George or perhaps Jimmy Butler to create another zany Super Team to challenge Golden State.
Today? LeBron's leaving at the end of next season to join someone – Jerry West? – in L.A. and the landscape is forever altered. See, things change fast.
The only thing anyone knows for sure is that no one knows for sure.
It's coming, right?
Speaking of speaking, there's another of the crazily entertaining Hoop Talks things going on tomorrow night in downtown Toronto.
Please let's keep this between ourselves but if you go here to look for one of the few tickets left and use the promo code "Smith" you'll get a break on the price.
And you can use that found money to perchance help a parched panelist quench his thirst, right?
Anyone else wish the Blue Jays and Texas played each other about 65 times a year? Just something about the games gives them an extra edge and a series is always full of drama or something and a welcome interlude in the never-ending season.
I don't know which mock draft to work on first.
The one for Thursday night or the one for the Vegas pucks expansion team.
And give the NHL credit, they've dragged out this expansion draft for so long you can't help but know about it.
Yeah, let's start with the mail, although I suspect more than a few questions will arise out of Thursday's draft.
But there must be more on your mind than basketball, right?
Unburden yourself at email@example.com and I'll get cracking on Sunday's stuff in the next day or two.

How Boomer Feminism Has Indoctrinated and Harmed Young People
Inebriated by screens and raised by perpetually nostalgic, adolescent-like parents, the Millennials, as a generation, have been given nothing towards which to rebel. Their Generation X parents had been society's bad-asses, metalheads, tough kids and rebels, enjoying sex, living fast and narrowly escaping dying young. After facing the lessons of "the dark side" of life, Generation X grew up to be more compassionate, more conscious and more connected to nature, spirituality and family than their Baby Boomer parents. Our restless wisdom, intellect and creative innovation has been as dangerous to a consumeristic global order as was the social justice pioneering of the Boomer youth before us. With the murder of peace icon John Lennon in 1980, it was made clear to the Boomers that service to human rights was a dead profession. Their sense of hopelessness was quickly distracted by a growing social order of career focus and material prosperity.
This program of social engineering had roots with the political birth of modern feminism. Contrary to the common belief that feminism was about "equality" between the sexes, feminism was a means to socially engineer a docile population willing to work, consume, buy and die without question. Feminism was a movement funded privately, with government ties, to drive a rift through the heart of society's last stronghold of personal and collective freedom: The human family. By seducing stay-at- home mothers into the workplace and causing them to grow in contempt for child care, not only would the government have the ability to tax the other half of the adult population, but children would be willingly handed over to day cares, preschools, kindergartens and schools. This would have the effect of further weakening family bonds and providing a captive audience of disconnected and restless children ripe for a social engineering curriculum of obedience, consumerism and consumption.
By the early 80's, the Boomers turned away from their hippie, peace and unity roots and became seduced by the careers, prosperity, materialism and the stylish "Yuppie" culture offered to them. Their "latch-key" children paid the price by returning home each day to homes empty of parents and devoid of connection. They were raised by the TV set and by their equally disconnected peers. Generation X was famous for being angry and rebellious "without a cause". As a generation, our Boomer parents had seemed ill-equipped to understand us, connect to us or compassionately respond to our needs without trying to buy a solution, a therapist or a babysitter.
However, when my generation gave birth to the Millennials, we sought to be there for our children and protect them. Unfortunately, in efforts to prove ourselves hip to the task of understanding youth angst, Gen X-ers have been vulnerable to nostalgia and therefore have refused to give up our 1980's adolescence. Gen X parents were so interested in appearing "cool" that they became suffocating "friends" to the Millenials rather than connected to the needs of the Millennials. Some of us Gen X parents proudly brought our bad-ass rebellion to the defense of our children by saying no to public schooling and saying yes to parenting for connection and a return to nature: Homeshooling, unschooling, Attachment Parenting, natural family living and Paleo eating have been among the results.
However, Gen X parents as a collective became lost in nostalgia and in filling their emptiness through their children's accomplishments. They competed with other parents, they pushed achievement above play and they praised product above creativity. They became hysterically fearful of any situation which they could not control in the lives of their children, turning nature, art, free play, free time, the neighborhood, adventures and exploration into an enemy that needed to be subdued. Gen X parents
cowered to the pressure for their children to conform: They allowed the Millennials to drown in the pharmaceuticals, media, devices, regimented activities and oppressive schooling socially engineered by Baby Boomer ideology.
Gen Xers were, as a generation, rejecting of feminism. As a generation of confident, snarky, "we can be anything we want to be" rebels, Gen X youth didn't need feminism telling us what to believe or what to do. We Gen X young women loved our Gen X young men: We loved their bodies, their style, their long hair, their confidence, their attention and yes, sex with them. As a generation, both female and male, we were raised to feel like competent, strong equals. As a generation, Gen X naturally secured equality between the sexes by the freedom we had in forming alliances, connections and relationships in the educational, career and personal worlds. As a result, we didn't see the zombie about to be resurrected.
However, by some savvy political necromancy motivated by renewed social engineering agendas, the bitter corpse of Boomer feminism was resurrected in the late 90's to target society's new grandchildren. This time, the gender programming would be fierce and war-like, with a three-fold agenda:
1. Incessant shaming, mocking and denigration of boys and men in the media and in the culture, presenting males as irrelevant predators and the male body and sexuality as dangerous and distasteful. Sexual and domestic abuse of boys and men, especially by females, would be hidden and ignored through academic and social service disinformation and censorship.
2. Excessive promotion of females as fragile, traumatized and oppressed by society, under the ironic guises of "Girl Power", female "empowerment", "equality" and female entitlement. Disinformation, data omission and strategic funding would be used to create an illusion in the media, in academia and in the social services that Western girls and women were unsafe in society.
3. Distract both males and females from this ruse by exploiting the very real human rights struggles of gay and lesbian activists. The legitimate GLBT community would be used and exploited by confusing and programming straight Millennials to believe that gender and sexual orientation are just as versatile as clothing: Trying on a new gender or a new sexual orientation was like trying on a jacket at a store!

Thank you Ashlee (from Oh Sweet Samsara) for the nominations! You should all go visit her blog right after you read this post!). She is still new to the blogging community but has such a beautiful blog with awesome nerdy content (and who doesn't love that?! :D)
Before I begin, I'd like to note that I will also be double-nominating blogs. Since both awards require me to nominate around the same amount of blogs, I thought "why not!" because who doesn't like awards? The more the better, right? I will post the nominations at the end of the post.
The Blogger Recognition Award
- Select 15 other blogs you want to give the award to. Do some digging if you must! Find those blogs. You cannot nominate yourself or the person who has nominated you.
- Write a post to show off your award! Give a brief story of how your blog got started, and give a piece or two of advice to new bloggers. Thank whoever nominated you, and provide a link to their blog.
- List who you've nominated in the post. Make sure to also attach the award itself! (You can do this by right-clicking, saving, and uploading the image below). Comment on each blog and let them know you've nominated them. Provide a link to the award post you created.
- Provide a link to the original post on Edge of Night. That way, anyone can find the original guidelines and post if needed, and we can keep it from mutating and becoming confusing!
My Blog StoryI know this is supposed to be brief but this is going to be kind of long, so hang in there.
- Blog about whatever you want! Don't ever let anyone tell you what to post about! This is your blog, so own it! I once had someone tell me to "stay to one theme and stick to it!" but the way I see it, no person has one dimension. We have many dimensions of ourselves, so how can one only express them self fully without opening all doors that make up their life?
- Don't be scared to comment! Commenting is one of the best ways to make connections with others. It shows other bloggers that you show interest in their posts, as well as it gives other bloggers a link back to your blog. It is a great way to get yourself known while making new friends, new connections, and possibly new people to do collaborations with in the future! You loved that post? Tell them you did! They'll appreciate it and so will you.
The Liebster Award
- Thank the person who nominated you and post a link to their blog on your blog
- Display the award on your blog--by including it in your post and/or displaying it using a "widget" or a "gadget". (Note: The best way to do this is to save the image to your own computer and then uploading it to your blog post)
- Answer 11 questions about yourself, which will be provided to you by the person who nominated you.
- Provide 11 random facts about yourself
- Nominate 5 - 11 blogs that you feel deserve the award, who have less than 1,000 followers (Note: You can always ask the blog owner this since not all blogs display a widget that lets the readers know this information!)
- Create a new list of questions for the bloggers to answer
- List these rules in your post (You can copy and paste from here).
- Once you have written and published it, you have to inform the people/blog that you nominated that they have been nominated for the Liebster award and provide a link for them to your post so that they can learn about it (they might not have ever heard of it!)
Ashlee's Questions:

|via Tumblr
What's the best book you've read in the past year?
Obviously, To All The Boys I Loved Before by Jenny Han! *hairflip* No but seriously, I have only read like three books this year and the ending of Paper Towns really disappointed me, so I chose this book over it. #SorryJohnGreenFans #IStillLoveQuargo
What's your favourite sci-fi or fantasy show and why?
I don't really watch sci-fi I don't think. Netflix apparently considers Video Game High School as a Sci-fi & Fantasy TV show, so I guess I'll say that one? I loved Video Game High School. If you are a gamer, and haven't seen it, GO WATCH IT NOW! And tell me you don't want to go to VGHS. Seriously, if there was a high school like that when I was in high school, I'd be one of the first to apply!
If you were invited to ride along in a TARDIS, where/what would be the first thing you'd travel to see?
I don't know if I'd actually accept the invitation to ride in a TARDIS. To be honest, time travel kind of scares me and I like being where I am now. So I'd probably just say "no thank you" and smile.
Random Facts:
- I teach private vocal lessons at my house every Sunday morning
- When I'm comfortable with a person, I make too much eye contact, but when I feel uncomfortable, I avoid eye contain at all costs. There's no in between with me.
- I started singing when I was 3 years old. I'd like to get back into singing, but I just don't have the time with school, work, and this blog
- I have an unhealthy obsession with trying to figure out who A is from PLL. After every episode, I have a discussion with my boyfriend's sisters about the episode and we share articles and theories through out the week until we get more clues in next week's episode. I just want to know.
- Despite being Filipino, I don't like any Filipino desserts. Cassava Cake? Anything Ube? Leche Flan? Halo-Halo? No thanks.
- I go to different coffee shops depending on the season. In the Fall, I go to Coffee Culture because its right outside of my school and during the Fall is when I am usually at school the most. In the Winter, I go to either Second Cup or Tim Hortons. I go to Second Cup for a Large Caramel Corretto and I go to Tim Hortons for their seasonal Candy Cane Hot Chocolate with whipped cream and candy cane pieces. In the Spring I usually go to Tim Hortons for Caramel Iced Coffee or Starbucks for a White Chocolate Mocha. And in the Summer I go to Starbucks only, for either a Venti White Chocolate Mocha Frapp with Chips or A Venti Passion Tea Lemonade.
- The lady at the Tuck Shop at my university campus knows me and always knows exactly what I am ordering. If it is exam week, every single day I'll buy a sprite and two packages of Swedish Berries. If it isn't exam week, I usually just buy a bagel in the morning because there aren't any food places on the way to school, unless I want to walk a block.
- I like to talk about food a lot
- My boyfriend and I built each other Build-A-Bears on our one year six months, last year, for our monthaversary date! It was so much fun!
- When I read a book, I like to listen to the Audio Book while following along with either a hard copy or paperback
- I work at a frozen yogurt store but I don't really even like frozen yogurt

- Who would win in an epic battle to the death: Vampires or Zombies? GO!

2020 Jaguar J-Type Performance And Design
To my eye, we have actually recorded the essence of that viewpoint in our making. It's elegant, while at the same time, rather aggressive, I suggest, assertive. Right. The factor exists are a lot of efficiency hints to be found, however nowhere is the J-Type over the made complex. Certainly, Callum is a male that appears to choose nuance, a hard thing to catch in hyper-powered cars.

Allow's begin in front, where we locate a really Jaguar-esque front fascia. The appearance is absolutely in tune with the existing F-Type SVR, with an oval mouth, bigger side intakes, and long, drawn-back headlights lined with LED daytime running lights. The normally flat and broad yet the integral elegance they supply isn't shed in the lot more striking percentages. Throughout the front, intake is a solitary separating carbon fiber bar, behind which is a shiny black diamond grille insert. The insert is likewise repeated in the reduced front side consumption. Listed below the grilles is a well-defined splitter to assist smooth air movement as well as include even more front-end grasp.
In regards to looking and layout, the inside of the J-Type would certainly most likely sports something similar to a competitor jet cockpit. It's a car you 'd most certainly seem like you were resting "in" as opposed to "on," with massively boosted sports seats (just 2 of them), a flat-bottom steering wheel, and also a facility pile that stretches rearwards to give the driver a sense of being strapped right into the vehicle.

Everything returns to the old E-Type that was initially presented in the early '60s. Like the modern F-Type, the E-Type was outfitted with a front-engine, RWD design, while the aesthetic appeals have consisted of a brief backside as well as an extensive food line. Jag's present halo model, the top F-Type SVR, is leading the brand's 200-mph charge with the same fundamental formula as the E-Type (albeit with AWD rather than RWD).

Bankruptcy is already a stressful time, and getting a good attorney for bankruptcy, who understands exactly what should be done and the steps he can take to make the process short will help ease some of the stress. There are plenty of them everywhere, but like with all other types of lawyers, there are some that will be better than others.
What are you looking for in an attorney for bankruptcy?
You are looking for 3 key things:
Easy steps to a good attorney for bankruptcy
1. Google it
Like with all things today, your richest source of information is the web. Get online and see if you have an attorney for bankruptcy in your area. You want someone who is close so that meeting with them can be easy.
2. Ask the State Bar Association
This is a great source of information on any kind of lawyer you may need, not just an attorney for bankruptcy. They have all Bar members listed and they know those who are really good. Ask them for more than one name or firm so that you can compare.
3. Check qualifications and track record
This is important. Not every attorney for bankruptcy is as successful as you may need them to be. Belonging to certain associations, like financial associations or the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (or equivalent), writing papers on bankruptcy and consumer protection gives them the experience that they need to get the court to award you bankruptcy. You should also check for successes and how long ago their last one was.
4. Ask in bankruptcy court
If you approach the court for an attorney for bankruptcy, they will give you several recommendations that you can compare to the other information that you have gathered.
5. Do your due diligence
Lastly, interview the attorneys for bankruptcy on your shortlist to make sure that you are getting exactly what you need. It's worthwhile to arm yourself with a bit of information before you talk to them so that you can know what to ask. Also, ask them to explain what the procedure is and how long it will take.
Remember that bankruptcy is not a bad thing; it's a way for you to get away from excess debt, and a chance to start over. If your attorney for bankruptcy makes it easy, you will get back on your feet sooner.

Happy New Year! Welcome 2013! The year is off to a busy start. Holidays are over! I must admit that it is a bit tough getting back on track. But there are goals to set and Squidoo lenses that need to be done. 🙂 Yes, life does go on.
I still wonder what 2013 has in store for me. I hope that it will be a pretty good year with more blessings of joy, peace, prosperity, and good health. May you enjoy the same thing! 😀
I also just realized that December just passed. Now that it's a new month, I will also need to create a new SquidAngel Blessings lens for January. I better write that down so I won't miss it. I do need to get busy!
I now have 74 Squidoo lenses. My next goal is to hit 100 so that I can try and move up the ladder. Plus, I would need to come up with more evergreen topics. It's a bit tough on traffic when your selection focuses on seasonal topics. So that's it for now! Have a great celebration! I hope that you're spending quality time with your family and loved ones!
Till next time… Ta-tah! Happy New Year 2013!

Guest post by Ran Gilboa, Technical Director
Understanding Server Flash and NetApp's Flash Accel
Let's start by discussing why you'd want to leverage server flash. There are two main reasons. The first is to reduce load from the storage or the network. The second is to accelerate performance for the application or virtual machine.
NetApp's server cache solution is called Flash Accel. NetApp® Flash Accel software combines the capabilities of server-based flash technology and NetApp intelligent caching to extend Virtual Storage Tier (VST) to the server level. Flash Accel v1.2, scheduled for release on July 25th, adds support for vSphere 5.1, iSCSI in the Windows guest OS, as well as support for VMware DRS, vMotion and VMware HA. It is available from the NetApp software download page.
Usually when you deploy a cache solution like Flash Cache it is for a specific node, so it's for all of the volumes in that node. Typically if you are using a Flash Pool technology you are using it for the entire aggregate, so it's all the volumes sitting on this aggregate. The good thing about Flash Accel is you can use it for a specific VM with a specific performance characteristic.
Optimizing Flash Accel
Once you've decided to implement Flash Accel, there may be some questions that you have about leveraging this technology, like:
These questions can be very difficult to answer if you don't have a storage resource management solution like OnCommand Insight. Insight provides visibility from the VM through the ESX and into the storage. Insight is monitoring the configuration and the performance for all of the elements in the infrastructure and gives you planning capability on top of it.
Finding Good Candidates
Step 1: Review volume performance characteristics
A good way to determine good candidates for Flash Accel is to review the performance characteristics of a given volume. From the graph below, we can tell that Volume 114 has high latency and user IOPS.
Step 2: Review VM performance characteristics on the ESX (Write vs. Read)
So we would like to reduce the load from that volume. Now we need to understand whether Flash Accel may be a good solution. So let's see if the performance characteristics of the VM are affecting that specific volume. The graph below shows the breakdown between the read and the write.
Right now, Flash Accel is optimized for read operation. We see all of the IOPS that were contributed by all of the VMs sitting on that specific volume. From the read operation you can see that VM84, the blue one, is generating most of the load. And VM81, the cream one, is the second one that is creating most of the load. Flash Accel will be applicable for those two VMs that generate the majority of the load.
Monitoring the Load: Determining How Many IOPs the VM Gained
Now that we applied Flash Accel to the VMs, the next step is to see if it had the intended effect. This graph shows that once the solution was deployed that most of the IOPS is coming from the Flash Accel enabled SSD card that is hosted on the ESX. That above graph shows that all of the IOPS that was going to the storage has been significantly reduced and is now being served by the cache. We can also see that the VM actually gained from 5,000 IOPS to 23,000 IOPS. We are getting almost 5 times more the amount of IOPS. You can see it took 34 minutes for the cache to warm up, but that's expected. Eventually most of the data will be served by the cache which means 99.99% will be served by the cache (in blue) and almost nothing will be served from the storage.
Monitoring Volume Performance: Reducing Load on the Storage
Now let's look at the performance of the volume. This graph shows the performance of the VMDK that accesses the storage. The VMDK IOPs dropped from ~5000 to ~0.
In the graph below, we see the corresponding performance from the storage. So you can see that there is a correlation, as we can see most of the load is being served out of the cache and not from the storage. Instead of buying more disks or adding a more complex solution from the back-end network, now it's just local on the ESX. The storage volume IOPs dropped from ~5000 to ~0.
Assuring Efficient Use of Flash Accel
Finally, we can look at the Flash card to see if it's leveraged efficiently. In this graph you can see all of the VMS on this specific ESX. The green arrow on the icon indicates that there are only two running VMs and both are allocated.
In the below VMDK Performance Distribution graph, we already allocated a piece of Flash Accel capacity for that specific VM. When we enable it for the blue one, the performance for the green one didn't change, so it can service those VMs without any problems.
Powerful Monitoring and Optimization
When you decide to leverage Flash Accel, or any flash technology, you want to make sure you get the most out of it. As I hope this post has shown, OnCommand Insight is a powerful storage resource management solution for leveraging flash technologies. It provides guidance for finding good candidates for the technology, determining how the application and storage has changed, and whether it's being used efficiently.

Trees are beautiful. We're often stopped in our tracks as we admire their changing colors and marvel in the diversity of their shapes, forms and attributes. Trees provide for us. They shelter us from the sun, rid the air of pollutants, supply building materials and even help to increase our property values. But what about the other, less obvious ways that trees affect our lives, sometimes without our even knowing it?
The fact is that trees appear in multiple facets of our lives from our language to the way we view and process information. We "branch out" and we are "rooted" in things and places; common expressions that we use every day, not always realizing that they are also tree metaphors. We also utilize branching structures on a daily basis to more easily chart and understand data. It's this very idea that drove the Root & Branch exhibition at the Princeton University Art Museum.
Curated by Joel Smith, Peter C. Bunnell Curator of Photography, Root & branch is an examination of the form of trees and branching structures and how they've become hardwired into our lives. "Trees are fundamental to the way we understand our world and with this exhibit I wanted to combine imagery from the world of art, science and information design that explains relationships and complexity in an intuitive way."
Perhaps the simplest example of this is the family tree, used for generations as a way to visually depict the expansion of a family as it grows and adds new branches. Root & Branch features a beautiful american family tree created in 1916 by Jonathan Knight Tyson with pen, colored inks and touches of watercolor.
The oldest image of a branching structure in the exhibit can be seen in a bronze fragment that is estimated to be from the early 6th century b.c. While the trunk and branches are clear and unmistakable, the purpose and background of this piece remains a mystery.
Root & Branch features a number of beautiful photographs including two by Edward Weston and Eugene Atget that clearly demonstrate the similarities between trees and the human form. Similarly, a Roman statuette in the exhibition places the bottom of a human leg next to the base of a tree where a knot perfectly mirrors the kneecap nearby. A limb next to a limb. While Root & Branch covers a broad span of geography, style and medium, the common thread that runs through every piece leaves no doubt of the undeniable impact that trees and their form have on our daily lives.

Very disappointed - Not worth the money
I purchased the Maine Clambake and have to say I was very disappointed. While the clams, shrimp and mussels were okay, I was very disappointed with the lobsters. They were net to impossibe to remove from their shells. I had to rip apart the shells and the meat was just in strings. And what little meat there was left was mealy. I would never buy this again. I could have gone to my local fish monger and purchased the various ingredients and have had a much better meal for equal to or less than what I was charged.

We're sorry that we somehow dropped the answer to the trivia question from MARTA'S MOVIE MINUTE on CULT MOVIES TV Episode 3. We re-edited the episode to include a dedication to the late YVETTE VICKERS and it somehow got left out. We also noticed the audio was much lower than other episodes. Our ground crew has fixed the problems and put them back up there on the OSI 74 ROKU CHANNEL and here for you to enjoy!

Urinary incontinence, particularly stress urinary incontinence (SUI), is common and very bothersome among female veterans. Although not life threatening, SUI greatly reduces quality of life and, among female veterans is significantly correlated with a history of depression and sexual assault. SUI is also strongly correlated with vaginal delivery of children, which can injure the muscles, and organs of the pelvic floor, including the external urethral sphincter (EUS). In addition, the pudendal nerve, which innervates the EUS, can be injured in Alcock's canal during delivery, proximal to its innervations of the urethra. Thus, the injuries incurred during childbirt represent a unique neuromuscular injury: one in which both the target muscle (the EUS) and its innervation are injured simultaneously. These two injuries, along with injuries to the tissues and muscles of the pelvic floor are strongly correlated with later development of SUI. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) must be produced by the target muscle to regenerate motoneurons and reinnervate the muscle after peripheral nerve injury. However, if muscle is injured, BDNF inhibits neuromuscular junction (NMJ) repair. Therefore, when both a nerve and its innervated muscle are injured, as can occur during childbirth, BDNF downregulation by the muscle inhibits nerve regeneration. We have developed a novel animal model of simulated childbirth injury and have demonstrated that a neurotrophin- mediated mechanism could be responsible for delayed and possibly incomplete neuroregeneration after vaginal delivery. Electrical stimulation (e-stim) increases BDNF expression in injured neurons and promotes nerve regeneration. It may present an alternative therapy with fewer complications than treatment with BDNF. E-stim therapy to promote nerve regeneration has had mixed success, in part because it has only been utilized after nerve injury, not after a combination nerve and muscle injury, as can occur in childbirth. Precisely because of this, investigation of the mechanism of action of e-stim after a combinatorial nerve and muscle injury in a specific clinically related model is crucial for optimizing the therapy and the patient subpopulation to treat. We have recent data that e-stim of the pudendal nerve after simulated childbirth injury upregulates BDNF in pudendal nerve cells and promotes functional recovery of the urethra. However, this data is correlative rather than causative. Therefore, the hypothesis to be tested in this project is that e- stim improves recovery from simulated childbirth injury via a BDNF-mediated mechanism. This hypothesis will be tested via the following specific objectives (SO): SO1. Optimize an e-stim paradigm for improvement of recovery after simulated childbirth injury;SO2. Demonstrate that accelerated recovery of function with e- stim correlates with chronic improvement;SO3. Demonstrate that BDNF is necessary and sufficient for spontaneous recovery after pudendal nerve crush (PNC) and accelerated recovery with supplemental BDNF after simulated childbirth injury. SO4. Demonstrate that e-stim facilitates recovery from simulated childbirth injury via a BDNF-mediated mechanism. This project will provide critical pre-clinical data to initiate a clinical tril to assess e-stim as an adjuvant to rehabilitation for female veterans with SUI. Approximately 1/3 of women have postpartum SUI following delivery. Although this resolves in most women, almost half of these women redevelop it 5 years later and over half redevelop it years later, indicating that postpartum SUI is predictive of later SUI. Women with postpartum SUI could constitute the population for a clinical trial of e- stim, which could treat their current incontinence and preven redevelopment of SUI. This research directly relates to the Rehabilitation R&D Priority Area of Aging. In addition, women are the fastest growing segment of the veteran population, representing 14% of active duty forces and 20% of new military recruits, and are a priority for the VA research program. Since incontinence and depression are so closely correlated among female veterans, improvement of incontinence symptoms may help lead to recovery from depression.

This research also directly relates to the Rehabilitation R&D Priority Area of Aging since SUI is a problem of the aging female veteran population. In addition, this work has application to other traumatic muscle and nerve injuries and could provide a method of improving rehabilitation from these combinatorial injuries for which recovery is difficult. Specifi projects to test stimulation as an adjuvant to rehabilitation after other combinatorial injuries wil be proposed in the future.

One of the most intriguing food items I bought in France were these Laughing Cow cubes of cheese made into different flavours. I thought the Japanese were weird with their food flavours, but the French as well!
I came across these and thought of Baby B, as Miss Pinky said I needed to buy cheese for my goddaughter. ¬_¬"" OK. French cheese it is then.
I bought a pack for myself to try out. It says it's "sugary (and) salty" at the front - sucré / salé. Flavours are chevre and miel (goat and honey), figues and noix (figs and walnuts), emmental and raisin (no need to translate) and bleu and noix (blue cheese and walnuts).
Realise this picture is upside down. Hahahahah. But you get the gist of what's inside the packet.
I tried a piece of all flavours. Erm. Not my favourite flavours for a soft cheese. I think I liked the blue cheese and walnuts... and the only one that made sense in terms of flavours was the emmental and raisin.
Hmmmm intriguing indeed. Probably wouldn't buy these for myself, but would recommend to add them onto crackers for taste I guess.
Mr Picky's mother liked them, and I think Baby B liked them too... Strange tastebuds the French have!

Asian Food
Thailand is grouped with Southeast Asia cuisines. Thai food is usually prepared stir-fried, steamed, or grilled over charcoal, however, ultimately the wok dominates the kitchen. Thai food has been described to have the "consistency of Chinese food, the spiciness of Mexican food, the lusciousness of Polynesian and the extract flavors of none of the above." The original home of the T'ai tribes existed in the mountain valleys of southwestern China, and when these tribes emigrated to their present home of Thailand, the abundance of tropical plants, game, fish and spices shaped their cuisine culture. Specific dynasties dedicated a large effort toward good food. Dynasties would hold cooking contest amongst the ladies of the palace. Often, these dishes would filter through the classes into the peasant's homes. Thai food is primarily dominated by six ingredients: fresh coriander, chilies, coconut, garlic (used in mass quantities), fish sauce and flavoring, and citrus flavorings, which are derived from lemon grass, lime rind and citrus leaves. Now Chinese influence surfaces with the presence of five distinct flavors: sweet, sour, salt, bitter, and hot. Rice is used in combination of nearly every dish. Thailand is considered the rice bowl of Asia, and the average Thai person eats a pound of rice a day. In fact, breakfest is usually a bowl of rice with broth, crispy garlic, and crushed peanuts. The people of Thailand eat small portions of food very often. For example, breakfast venders on the streets sell slices of green mango dusted with sugar, or thinly sliced chicken with a spicy sauce. In the afternoon noodle vendors appear selling varies noodle soups. Noodles are considered an appropriate lunch; however, it is not served at dinner. The main meal of the day is prepared in the early evening. Food is brought to the table as soon as it is prepared, there are no designated courses. The meal is designed so the textures and flavors balance one another. At the end of the meal a bowl of fresh fruit will be served in place of a sweet desert. Surprisingly, Thai food is eaten with forks and spoons. Chopsticks are only used a person in dining at a Chinese restaurant. Food decor is very characteristic of Thai food. Scarlet chilies become lilies, onions become chrysanthemums, and cucumbers become leaves. Some salads are presented as bouquets of flowers, and ginger roots are carved into flowers, fish birds and butterflies. The Thai culture celebrates food with a joy and love of art. China:
The geography, climate, and conglomeration of races contribute to the wide variety of Chinese cooking. Climates range from subarctic in the north to the subtropical in the south. Ancient Chinese philosophy of food has always emphasized the blending of textures, flavors, and colors. They have five main flavors of salt, sweet, sour, bitter, and hot, but one flavor can not dominate the meal. Chinese cuisine is divided into North, South, East, and West. The north is home to the Imperial Palace which was the gourmet capital in the 1600s. Thus it began a melting pot of flavors of different foods. The north's staple corps include wheat, millet, and barely. The noodles, steamed buns and dumplings take the place of rice. However, the south is known for the abundance of ingredients and many seafood dishes. Canton, a large port on the West River attracted Arabs in the fourth century, and the fine foods attracted the Portuguese in the fifteenth century. Their main seasonings include fermented bean curd, oyster sauce, rice-wine vinegar, and ginger seasonings. The common sweet-and-sour dishes derived here from the demand of foreigners. Furthermore, the east provides rice for the most of the country. Also, the foothills in the southern mountains of Fukien proved a great environment for tea plantations. Being near the Pacific Ocean provides a variety of sea food. The providence Fukien is...

SOURCE: UC Irvine Division of Continuing Education
April 05, 2017 11:45 ET
IRVINE, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 5, 2017) - University of California, Irvine Division of Continuing Education (DCE) has announced the appointment of Professor Charles (Tony) Smith, Ph.D., J.D., as the Division's new associate dean. Smith replaces Jane Welgan, who served in the role for over 30 years. As a key member of the executive management team, Smith will lead the efforts of all of the academic planning units and strategic support units.
"UCI invests great time and care in selection of its executive management staff. We hired Professor Smith after a nationwide search for the ideal candidate to fill this essential role on DCE's senior management team," said Gary W. Matkin, Ph.D., dean of Continuing Education, Distance Learning and Summer Session. "His academic experience combined with his legal and management background will help DCE chart its future as an integrated part of UCI."
A full professor in the UCI School of Social Sciences, his distinguished 10-year academic career includes the publication of four books -- with four more on the way -- covering such subjects as gerrymandering, war crimes and human trafficking. Smith also has served important roles with the Academic Senate, including chair of the Council on Educational Policy (CEP). Under his leadership, the Council conducted an overhaul and complete reboot of the academic integrity process and program, revised several categories of classes in the general education requirements, and implemented dramatic expansion of/created protocols for online course offerings.
Smith received his Ph.D. in political science from UC San Diego, a J.D. from the University of Florida, a master's degree in political science from Utah State, and his bachelor's degree from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Before entering the academic field, Smith began his career in law, practicing for nearly 20 years and serving as managing partner for his own law firm.
"I am delighted to be joining the team at DCE. I have admired their dedication to the mission of lifelong learning since I arrived at UCI, and I look forward to being a part of this great organization," said Smith. "This is an exciting opportunity to join the frontier efforts of DCE as higher education evolves in a changing world. I am thrilled about joining this dedicated group of entrepreneurial educators to further the mission of the DCE and the University."
Smith will retain his faculty standing with the School of Social Sciences, a status which will contribute greatly to DCE's continuing efforts to best serve the UCI campus and its students.

This is just a little reminder that GAP is having a great sale today. They are taking 25% off ALL Sale items. I just went through the sale tag, & lemme tell ya...I could've bought, like, 34 different things.
Because I never seem to have enough bras...Lacy T-Shirt Bra-- $27.00
Because I love San Francisco {& also because this one doesn't have GAP in big letters across the front}...San Francisco City T-- $14.24
Because these are my favorite pants ever...{remember this old FF?}...1969 Cropped Legging Jeans--$45.00
Because I need cooler pajamas from my hotter-than-hot room...Poplin Ruffle Short--$9.75
I've been taking pictures of my feet lately. Apologies to my Instagram followers. But since this is a fashion post...
1) My fall boots made an appearance yesterday. First time in eight months. It felt good to wear 'em again. {Ralph Lauren, from DSW}
2) GAP Outlet shoes. They came in navy & pink & I'm still kicking myself for not buying them in every color.
3) I forgot to bring my rainboots back to school :( So my Burberry rain shoes are getting lots of game time this fall.
4) My family members have some pretty kick-ass jobs. For example, my uncle works at Converse. Which is owned by Nike. Which also owns Cole Haan. Therefore...the only reason why I would own Cole Haan cheetah flats. Love.
Outfits from my first two weeks.
I have a fun few days ahead that I'll post about on Monday.
Can anyone guess what's coming in the mail today?!?!?!? :) :) If you hear someone screaming with joy, that's me.
Happy Weekend!!

It has been almost a year and a half amazing journey for me. Seeing my son grows day by day is something that I can be grateful for. Sometimes it was wonderful, full-of-laughter days, but can't deny that most of it was challenging. Despite the difficulties and dramas I've gone through in raising my baby, I am so amazed by one thing: his ability to copy what he sees, especially from his parents. Here are some that I thought he didn't notice:
1. Throwing garbage to the bin
I' m so surprised when he first did that, because I didn't really teach him to throw things on the garbage bin. First time I saw him did that, I gave him compliment and applause. What happened next was, he threw non-garbage things into the bin. Now, he can identify which thing goes to the bin.
2. Mopping and sweeping the floor
This happened before point no.1, but I didn't know that it was a copied act. I thought he simply loved the broom. When I saw how he used it, I understood that it was an imitation also.
3. Put the dirty dish on the kitchen sink
It doesn't always happen, but now it's getting more often.
4. Cleaning his face and mouth with tissue
He does this especially if there is a roll tissue nearby.
5. Putting books back to the shelf
Mostly he left it in a mess, but certain times when we wanted to leave the house, he would put the book back on its place.
6. Putting toothbrushes back to the container
He usually puts toothbrush in his mouth during the bath time, and threw those brushes to the bucket (we don't have a tub). In the end of the session, when I am ready with the towel in front of the bathroom door, he will carefully placing the brushes one by one to the container.
7. Bite the seal of water gallon, as he saw my husband used his teeth to open it
Maybe it was extraordinary for him when he first watched his dad did that, thus he often tried to bite the sealed cap.
8. Put my cellphone on his ear and laughing while walking
I didn't realize that that's how I'm talking on the phone!
9. And also some routines that he knows will happen after certain things:
- when I put on my skirt and hijab, he will directly head to the door, thinking that "we'll go for a walk!"
- when I put on my skirt and hijab, he will directly head to the door, thinking that "we'll go for a walk!"
– if the bread seller passes our house with its loud sound, he will clap his hands, signing that he wants to stop the motorcycle and buy
– if I finish praying, he will go to the desk and take a Quran for me to read it
– if I don't take some clothes soon after he finish taking a bath, he will walk to the drawer and pull the second shelf (where I put his pants), and take one shorts
1 – if i give the "don't do that" look when he disobey me, he will raise his point finger in front of his face and look at me
The conclusion is, be careful with what you do in front of your kids because they will imitate you, now or later. Happy parenting!

Jaguar has unveiled its fastest XJ saloon to date, the new XJR575, which takes 44 seconds to go from 0mph to 186mph.
The new model, available from £93,710, goes from 0-62mph in 4.4 seconds, with a 5.0-litre V8 supercharged engine producing 700Nm of torque.
Read more: Revealed: Jaguar's most powerful road car to date
Jaguar's also aiming to up its tech creds with a larger 10-inch touchscreen included and 4G Wi-Fi, along with "intelligent safety measures" including autonomous emergency braking, lane keep assist, and driver condition monitoring. The larger touchscreen functions like a smartphone so users can pinch and zoom when using satellite navigation and create custom homepages for shortcuts to favoured features.
Jeremy Hicks, Jaguar Land Rover UK MD, said: "There is huge momentum behind Jaguar in the UK at the moment with record sales, high footfall at retailers and more customers considering the brand than ever before. Work doesn't stop here though, these latest updates to the XJ show we're still working to improve our line-up and widen its appeal to even more UK buyers."
"The very latest technology and peak of Jaguar performance are now available in our flagship model, adding to the already impressive package of style, comfort and agility. The Jaguar XJ has always been designed as the ultimate luxury driver's car, and with the new 2018 model year range and the XJR575 we've made it even more desirable.
Exterior details include a rear spoiler, side sills, front bumper and lower air intakes, featuring gloss black surrounds.
The XJR575 is manufactured at JLR's Bromwich plant alongside the XE, XF, F-Type and XJ model lines.
Earlier this month, JLR announced its new mid-sized SUV will be built in Austria and China. The car giant said UK facilities were "close to capacity", so it had agreed a deal with engineering and manufacturing specialist Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria. The E-Pace will also be produced exclusively for the Chinese market at Chery JLR's manufacturing plant in Changshu.

Need comments/suggestions?
Awesome sig as usual dude... I love your dark but bright style. They never cease to amaze me
Its funny you should do a sig when you were bored though, i did the same thing! :
Thanks. your new one looks pretty sweet
I hate to burst your bubble, but it's not that great. Low quality render. Effects are okay, but text really brings it down. This sig is also very lacking in "wow".
and yours is freakin awesome bro..
an artist should accept also critics
I think the colors are quite bland and not bright, what happened to white? It seems like you played too much with levels on the drawing it seems really burned out. There's little wow factor not to mention is slightly unbalanced.
You have the technical part down, now make the art work.
Alright guys. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try to thinnk bout that stuff next time
good but can be better I guest...

2017 U.S. Open Cup Final: Sporting Kansas City vs. New York Red Bulls
Playing out all summer long, we've reached the end of the largest soccer tournament in the United States. The tournament began in May with 99 teams qualified for the tournament. After five months of competition, only two Major League Soccer clubs remain. On Wednesday night, the New York Red Bulls visit Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kansas to face Sporting Kansas City. The Semper Soccer blog has your 2017 U.S. Open Cup Final preview to get you ready for the match.
New York Red Bulls
This year marks the Red Bulls second appearance in an Open Cup final. Their only previews trip to the championship match came in 2003 when they were the New York/New Jersey Metro Stars. That team suffered a 1-0 loss to the Chicago Fire at Giants Stadium.
New York's path to the final is littered with clubs most U.S. soccer fans are familiar with. MLS teams enter the tournament in the fourth round so there are plenty of heavyweight matchups. They started their journey in round four with a win over rival New York City FC. The next two rounds saw two more wins over MLS teams as the Red Bulls dispatched the Philadelphia Union and New England Revolution. Finally, they ended the run of lower-division darlings FC Cincinnati in the semi-finals on the road.
On Sunday, head coach Jesse Marsch rested a number of his regular players in preparation for this final. Marsch also announced Monday that backup goalkeeper Ryan Meara would start on Wednesday as he has every game in the tournament so far. Here's a look at the team could line up with a rested roster in their preferred 5-4-1 formation.
Sporting Kansas City
Sporting KC enters Wednesday's final as three-time U.S. Open Cup champions. The 2004 Kansas City Wizards defeated the Chicago Fire in a home game at Arrowhead Stadium. In 2012, Sporting Kansas City defeated the Seattle Sounders in a shootout at their new home park on the Kansas side of the border. Then the 2015 squad traveled to PPL Park and won another shootout, this time over the Philadelphia Union.
The 2017 competition has pit SKC against fellow MLS clubs in every round. However, they've only had to play one match on the road. They opened in round four with a home win over Minnesota United. Then came their lone road victory against the Houston Dynamo. They returned home and defeated FC Dallas before conquering the San Jose Earthquakes in a semifinal shootout.
Kansas City coach Peter Vermes took a different approach to getting his team ready for Wednesday. Instead of resting, he put the majority of his first-choice players on the field Saturday in a 3-1 win over the New England Revolution. Vermes's commitment to a high level of fitness means he'd rather have his players in the rhythm of the match instead of resting them. Here's how the SKC signature 4-3-3 could look for the final.
The Prediction
On one side is the New York Red Bulls who are playing in just their third-ever cup final. Then there's Sporting Kansas City who is trying to lift the U.S. Open Cup trophy for the third time in five seasons. In addition to the Cup, there's $250,000 in prize money and a spot in the 2019 CONCACAF Champions League on the line. Sporting is built on stout defense but they've only recorded one shutout since July 19 in all competitions. New York has shown the ability to put up goals but they're not lighting up the scoreboard lately. It's hard to pick against the home team here with a roster full of players who have been there, done that on this very stage. The pick: 2-1, Sporting Kansas City.
How To Watch
When: Wednesday, September 20, 9 p.m. Eastern, 8 p.m. Central
Where: Children's Mercy Park, Kansas City, Kansas
TV: ESPN2, ESPN Deportes

The scandal-a-week candidacy of Gov. Bill Clinton shows signs of foundering. He lost Connecticut last week to Jerry Brown, and homestate analysts in Vermont (which caucuses today), Wisconsin and New York (which have primaries next Tuesday) say there is at least a possibility that he could lose to the implausible Mr. Brown in each state.
The latest hit for Governor Clinton is his admitting in New York, after months of fencing with the press, that he once smoked marijuana. The revelation that his previous answers were more clever than they were responsive is what hurts, not the mere fact of having puffed a few times. It emphasizes his "Slick Willie" reputation.
Mr. Brown's coalition-building and momentum may be slowed as he is subjected to the same intensive and damaging press scrutiny that Mr. Clinton has endured.

A woman who once made metro Atlanta her home and was last seen January 23 after receiving treatment for a seizure at a hospital in Miami is safe after being located last week.
According to thedailynewsonline.com, 22 year-old Alexis Say was last seen in a hospital waiting room in Miami. The website reports Say was discharged from treatment for a seizure and was waiting for a ride when she was last seen. She is a native of New York state and has also resided in Pittsburgh and Atlanta.
It had been thought that Alexis had been caught up in the sex-trafficking industry but that hasn't been confirmed.
A Facebook page created on her behalf posted that she had returned home safe on March 7 after disappearing for six weeks. The page goes on to say that Alexis tried to reach out more than once for help and "Finally, the right person in the right place at the right time learned that she was missing, looked online, saw how incredibly loved she is and made the call."
Alexis had checked herself into a rehabilitation facility for help with an addiction to heroin and also suffers from kidney disease, heart problems and high blood pressure.

After the Orlando shooting a week ago, President Obama lashed out at GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump for his comments about radical Islam and terrorism. Trump tweeted, "Is President Obama going to finally mention the words radical Islamic terrorism? If he doesn't he should immediately resign in disgrace!"
Obama responded with this: "That"s the key, they tell us. We can"t get ISIL unless we call them "radical Islamists." What exactly would using this label accomplish? What exactly would it change? Would it make ISIL less committed to trying to kill Americans? Would it bring in more allies? Is there a military strategy that is served by this? The answer is, none of the above. Calling a threat by a different name does not make it go away. This is a political distraction."
Obama is essentially saying that it meaningless to say "radical Islam" as it is just a political talking point. If this is the case, then why won't he say those words? How can America fight an enemy that left-wing politicians refuse to even name? It doesn't add up.
The real reason why saying the words "radical Islam" matters is that it confronts an ideology. Not all muslims are jihadists, but the fact is that some are. Obama may be avoiding these words in an effort to not offend all muslims, but he must name the enemy no matter if it offends some.

European Exploration and Conquest
On his third transatlantic voyage, Christopher Columbus sailed along the Venezuelan coast in 1498. But the continent was named after Amerigo Vespucci, whose ship also charted northern South America in 1499–1500, because a German cartographer used Vespucci's first name when publishing a new map. (Neither Vespucci nor Columbus actually saw what is now the U.S. coast; the closest they came was the Caribbean.) In 1500 the Spanish sailor Vicente Yáñez Pinzón and the Portuguese navigator…

Canon PIXMA MG7160
Canon, www.canon.com.au
Excellent print quality
A little noisy
Over the years we've tested and owned a number of Canon PIXMA printers, so we were keen to get our hands on one of the latest models, the MG7160. We weren't disappointed.
Changing settings and carrying out the initial setup was done through the 3.5in touchscreen. There is no need to ever connect to the printer via USB, so you can simply feed the PIXMA MG7160 some power and hide it in an unobtrusive space in the office or study.
The PIXMA MG7160 is a five-ink – it adds grey to the usual CYMK – device that does a wonderful job of printing complex documents and photos. It's also a flatbed scanner, but lacks a sheet-feeder. That makes it useful for scanning the occasional document or photo – it works directly with Preview so there's no need to install any extra software – but less useful for multi-page documents.
We were very pleased at the printed output. Images and documents sent from iOS devices and a MacBook Pro all looked excellent with text clearly rendered. Photos, printed on Canon's photo stock, had great colour depth and richness. Blacks were solid and shadings and shadows were nicely shown without any loss of detail in darker areas.
Given that most people choosing this printer will be using it for printing photos as well as regular A4-sixed documents, the availability of two paper trays makes life easy. We loaded the main tray with standard A4 paper and the second tray with some Canon photo paper. When we sent a photo from an iOS device or iPhoto on a Mac, the printer automatically chose the best tray for the task.
Bottom line.
Canon's reputation for delivering great small office and home printers remains untarnished with the PIXMA MG7160. It ticks almost all the boxes for the connected OS X and iOS friendly home or office.

text: Thousands of largemouth and smallmouth bass have been successfully released to swim another day thanks to the crew of our live release boat. Since 1996, we have operated a live release pontoon boat at pro and amateur bass fishing tournaments and derbies held on the Bay each summer. Our objective is to increase survival rates of bass released after these events and to promote the concept of live release among all anglers.

The primary objective of this project was to determine whether asbestiform fibres were present in kimberlite mines, mining both pipes and fissures. This research work was carried out in conjunction with another SIMRAC project OTH 410.
Dust control by means of water is undesirable due to the fact that blue ground swells and disintegrates when it comes into contact with water, rendering the ground still to be mined unstable and unsafe.
The dust caused by dry drilling is a cause for concern and a research project was undertaken to determine the risk to which this drilling method exposes employees.
A literature study revealed that asbestiform fibres are commonly found in rock formations world-wide, with chrysotile being the most prevalent form of asbestos fibre. It is commonly accepted that a background fibre concentration of 0,0005 f/ml would be representative for urban outdoor levels. It was therefore necessary to establish the background levels of fibre content in the atmosphere, which could have an effect on underground sampling.
Fibre counts did not differ much between the two mining methods (pipe and fissure mining) or between wet and dry drilling. However, during dry drilling, there was a tendency for dust to obscure the presence of fibres, resulting in possible inaccuracies during the fibre-counting process.
When the dust load was reduced by means of control measures, more fibres became visible for counting. High fibre counts were noted when samplers were programmed to sample at short intervals (10-minute cycles) during every 60-minute period. Less dust was then sampled and the asbestiform fibres were easily detectable by means of microscopy.
The extent of employee exposure was not established but the results obtained during this project revealed that asbestiform fibres are present in the working environment of kimberlite mines and this means that further monitoring of employees is necessary to determine their risk and personal exposure.
Monitoring of asbestiform fibres should form an integrated part of the monitoring programme for airborne pollutants. Structured routine sampling for airborne fibres should be conducted at all mines mining kimberlite, irrespective of the type of deposit mined (excluding alluvial deposits).
A cost-effective method of identifying the various asbestiform fibres and other fibres is
necessary for the whole mining industry in South Africa.
