One good way to make your kids have interest in going school is to let them choose the things they will be using such as school supplies, shoes and a bag. It can develop their sense of taste towards something. Likewise, you as a parent should be present to guide your children in finding the best school bag. When you shop for bag, you have to ensure that the bag is appropriate for your children's needs and body built. The need depends on the school level the child is in. Preschoolers, for example should carry a small bag, whereas young grade school children may need to bring trolleys which are more spacious and can accommodate more school things. Teens that are into high school may prefer to use backpacks or shoulder bags as these are trendy.
In most cases, parents these days switch to wheeled bags for their kids. You may ask why. It is because wheeled bag or a trolley able to hold more stuff to school. If you are not aware of how a kid's trolley looks like, it is actually a backpack with wheels attached at the bottom of the bag and a retractable handle at the top of the bag. There is also adjustable shoulder straps allow the parents or older brother to sack in their back if they want to. The main concept of a trolley bag is to use the wheels to drag the backpack along to help the kids transport the bag easily.
Trolley or a wheeled backpack offers advantage for kids and smaller children. Different sizes of this kind of bag are available in the market today to meet the needs of every age. Unlike a typical backpack, a wheeled one can actually carry more things since it is built to accommodate more than what is expected such as numbers of books, a lunch box and a complete set of school supplies. This is one of the advantages of a trolley. The fact that it can be dragged or pulled by a child means that it is easier to carry compared to backpack that kids will most likely get backache when worn and when it is full of heavy things.
In addition to carry ability, another advantage of wheeled backpack is that it can actually be stood upright at the side of a child's seat. This means that the book or other school supplies inside will not get too messy. These are some of the advantages of a trolley bag. See how it can benefit your children by purchasing now. Checking the country's leading online shop is of great help. A lot of affordable bags with fashionable designs are available made by reliable brands. What are you waiting for? Give your kids the ease of carrying their school stuff by shopping trolley backpack.

The Gemini South Adaptive Optics Imager (GSAOI) is a near-IR camera designed for use with the Gemini Multi-conjugate Adaptive Optics System (GeMS). GeMS is a multi-conjugate AO system and GSAOI provides diffraction limited images through various filters spanning the 0.9 -2.4 micron wavelength range.
The Gemini GSAOI web pages provide an instrument description. References to the design are given on the GSAOI web page under the heading Documents. An overview of GSAOI was presented by R. Carrasco et al. at the 2011South American Gemini Data Reduction Workshop.
In 2012 the Gemini observatory selected science projects for system verification. This data is now public.
The Science Operations link on the Gemini Science web page leads via Data and Results to the useful page Getting Started. Under the topic GSAOI links are provided to the GSAOI Gemini IRAF documentation gsaoiinfo. In gsaoinfo there are some basic descriptions of the detector array, size, and layout, data format, read modes, and available reduction tasks. The IRAF command "help gsaoi" is also useful. An example of a GSAOI data reduction script can be found at "gsaoiexamples". In gsaoiexamples there is a very minimal data reduction outline. Some additional information is available at the GSAOI Data Format and Reduction link.
The above examples do not deal with geometric distortions. Both static and dynamic distortions are critically important to most GSAOI projects. Geometric distortions are mentioned in a talk by R. Carrasco given at the 2014 workshop in Guaruja. In addition to an overview of the reduction process there is also a discussion of how to correct distortions and how to stack the images. A more recent package has been developed called Disco-Stu. Disco-Stu (Distortion Correction and Stacking Utility) is standalone Python that aligns and stacks images already processed by the Gemini IRAF gareduce task. To download Disco-Stu see http://www.gemini.edu//sciops/data-and-results/processing-software.

Zipped files of data and reduction information are also available at the ftp site for the 2014 workshop in Guaruja.

Every year in mid-October the American Chemical Society celebrates National Chemistry Week to enhance the public's perception of chemistry. As a recent spin-off business of DuPont, The Chemours Company needed to show the positive pervasiveness of chemistry, establish themselves as a leader in the chemical industry, and prove themselves as a major advocate for chemistry education. This provided us the perfect opportunity to create a compelling week-long campaign celebrating chemistry around the National Chemistry Week milestone.
For many, learning about chemistry has never been something to sing about. So to promote #NationalChemistryWeek, we brought the elements to life and created an original, handcrafted, stop motion music video for each day of the week. Targeting educators and students, "The Periodic Table: Something to Sing About" celebrates the most fundamental scientific tool in a way that's equally fun and inspiring for the next generation of chemists.
We made our client the big winner during National Chemistry Week, providing educational, entertaining, and branding content. In seven days with just $2,500 in paid media, our videos earned 881,375 impressions and 121,769 views. Chemours was the most shared brand during #NationalChemistryWeek and the #1 most retweeted company compared to all media, brands, and institutions.

1. Plan Carefully
All successful ventures begin with good planning. Meetings with free-flowing ideas from all those who will participate in an upcoming non-profit event will make the project more effective.
Non-profits are in business to fulfill a mission. Usually that mission results in a better world for people, animals, the environment or all three. It's important to know exactly what your project is supposed to accomplish and how it fits into the mission. A well-planned event will likely meet or exceed expectations.
Members of the non-profit team should have a clear vision of what needs to be accomplished and what is expected of them. Knowing that their role is critical to the success of the project will allow them understand the importance of their participation.
Goals should be clearly defined, challenging yet attainable. Good workers enjoy a challenge and will often outdo your expectations, especially if they are feel the work is worthwhile and life-enhancing.
2. Attract the Clients Who Will Benefit Most
Who is your project designed to help, the poor, the sick, the hungry, the homeless, the unemployed? No matter who your target audience is, the effectiveness of your non-profit's mission hinges on being able to connect with the people who will benefit the most from your efforts.
Even the best non-profit cannot be all things to all people. Knowing your "ideal client" will help you reach that segment of the population. Once the team is clear on this matter, well-written press releases will help notify these people of what you have to offer them. Posters, flyers, radio spots and the like will get your word out effectively. Specifics rather than generalities will grab the attention of the right people.
3. Conduct Honest Evaluations
Receiving honest feedback is one of the best things a company can do if it is serious about providing good service. At the completion of a program or project, collect anonymous comments from both clients and staff members. Implement the suggestions that will make the next project more effective.
4. Develop Effective Fundraising Campaigns
Non-profits need money to conduct programs. Therefore, fundraising strategies need to be effective. Speak to a
professional fundraising consultant if you're constantly struggling to make ends meet.
5. Demonstrate Appreciation for Employees and Volunteers
Most non-profits derive a great deal of service from volunteers. With little money for payroll, volunteers can seem to make the non-profit's world go round. Showing appreciation for their efforts will go a long way in bringing them back to help with future projects.
Paid staff members also need to know that they are not taken for granted. Even though they receive pay, it may not be as much as they could receive in the for-profit world. Find affordable ways to demonstrate thankfulness, such as a spring flower in a tiny vase, a card, a party or an employee-of-the-month certificate. Foster camaraderie to make your non-profit environment more worker friendly.
Non-profits must use every resource as effectively as possible. Good planning, targeted publicity, accurate evaluations, successful fundraising, and an enthusiastic staff will enable the non-profit make the world a better place.

This growing season is rapidly moving along and it continues to be cold and wet. For most areas of the state the growing degree days (GDD's) are lagging by more than 100 and as high as 300 GDD's in some areas as of July 11. As a result, corn is shorter than it normally is at this calendar date and growth stage. Corn is ten inches shorter than the last 5-year average and 14 inches shorter than it was at this time last year. Will corn height catch up? And will short corn have good yields?
Why are plants shorter?
Plants grow in height as cells in the internodes enlarge. When the temperature is low, cells don't grow as big, so internodes are shorter and the plant is shorter compared with normal for the rest of the growing season. So plants will never catch up in height. Leaves will also be smaller than normal for the same reason. But the leaves on the corn plant now (the first 6 that develop) slough from the plant as the plant grows. And the next few leaves (7 to 10) are on the bottom of the plant after tasseling and do not contribute significantly to grain development, so leaf size for the leaves on the corn plant now should not affect grain yield. The upper leaves that are growing now in size are the ones that will have the greatest impact on yield.
New leaves are initiated from the growing point with about 3 ½ days between the initiations of each leaf. All of the leaves are initiated while the corn plants are very small. Cool temperatures extend the time interval between leaves. The growing point shifts from initiating leaves to tassel because of the night length which is not affected by the cool weather, so there may be 1 to 2 fewer leaves that develop on corn plants this year due to the cooler temperatures that we have already had. A plant with fewer leaves is another cause of shorter plants.
Can short plants yield as well as taller plants?
Earlier hybrids are shorter than full season hybrids and yield less, so we associate lower yields with smaller plants. Plant size is the "factory" for producing yield so one might expect higher yield potential from larger, taller plants. However, short plants of a given hybrid should yield comparable to taller plants of the same hybrid unless the height difference is caused by nutrient deficiency or excessive moisture. In this case, the height difference is due to shorter internodes rather than a major stress and should not affect yield. We need to remind ourselves that in planting date trials, the late-April planted corn is shorter than corn planted in May, but produces higher yields so the shorter corn plants we have should not reduce yield potential.
Will tasseling be delayed because of the cool weather and wet soils?
Night length initiates tassel development, which should not be affected, but tassel emergence from the whorl may be delayed by the cool weather due to slower cell growth. However, tasseling will be delayed a few days on those plants in the low areas where plant development has been slowed due to excessive moisture. Corn was planted early this so tasseling should be occurring between July 14-20 which is normal for most early planted corn of full season hybrids.
Has the cold hurt the corn and what happens if it remains cold?
Yield potential should be good if the rest of the growing season gives average temperatures. We have an early-planted crop with good populations and adequate soil moisture. If we have normal temperatures for the rest of July, August and September, we should produce a crop that is above average. But if cold weather continues, yields will be affected and maturity will be delayed. The impact on yield will depend on how much the temperature deviates from normal.

When I was asked to write this essay, it was suggested that I contrast what we had lost in Vietnam to what we had won. So I drew two columns on a piece of paper. It was easy to collect things for the ``lost`` column, but I couldn`t think of a thing for the ``won`` column. It`s difficult for me to come up with things we won in Vietnam. My life has been so directly affected by that war that it`s difficult to remain objective. So, I won`t.
LOST: The familiar numbers: 58,000 Americans killed, 300,000 wounded, 2500 missing in action. That line of statistics does little to convey the true nature of the tragedy as I see it. That`s nearly 58,000 families who grieve for a son or daughter, brother or sister, husband or wife lost to that war. Of the 300,000 wounded, thousands remain permanently maimed and disfigured. The continuing tragedy of the MIAs is still to be resolved.
The less well-known victims are the survivors: among them 800,000 men and women who suffer PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder), including the often- forgotten nurses; some of whom suffer recurring flashbacks and suicidal depression after the carnage they witnessed. The returning veterans had to deal with outright heckling by college students who didn`t have to go fight, refusal by their friends to listen to what was happening there, and the fact that their contemporaries had advanced in their careers in a prosperous economy while the veterans had fought. Not only did he lose time during his actual service, he also acquired a label -- Vietnam Veteran -- which often made it even more difficult to get employment. Add to that the meager GI Bill benefits and the swift kick was completed by the government itself.
These are the veterans who won almost every battle they fought in Vietnam. These are the veterans who accumulated more individual combat time than had their fathers in the South Pacific. And these are the same veterans who finally organized their own homecoming parade in Washington, built their own memorial and who treat their own brother`s ills at vet centers around the country.

Frisco TX Bail Bonds | Bail Bonds Frisco Texas
Criminal Lawyer Bill Knox can help arrange Frisco TX bail bonds and jail releases for cases filed in Collin County. Bill Knox has been a practicing criminal defense lawyer in Frisco, Texas for over 30 years and has years of experience assisting clients and families through the Frisco TX bail bonds process.
Attorney Bill Knox may arrange Frisco TX Bail Bonds for any of the following criminal charges: misdemeanors, assault, assault family violence, assault domestic violence, criminal mischief, drug possession, DUI, DWI and more.
Frisco TX bail bonds may be posted 24 hours per day, seven (7) days per week, 365 days per year through a Frisco TX bail bondsman or an attorney.
Frisco Police Department | Frisco Bail Bonds
The Frisco Texas Police Department is located at 7200 Stonebrook Pkwy, Frisco, TX 75034. The jail is open 24 hours per day including holidays and the direct phone number to The Frisco Police Department is (972) 466-3335. While Frisco is its own city, the county is located in Collin County and if inmates do not post a bond while in the Frisco Jail, they are transferred to the Collin County Detention Center to await Court dates on their criminal charges.
How To Post Bail Bonds in Frisco TX
Cash bonds may be paid in full at The Frisco, Texas jail in place of Frisco TX bail bonds. However, if you do not have the full amount needed to post a cash bond as it is set by a magistrate, you may seek the assistance of a Frisco TX bail bondsman or an attorney who may post Frisco TX bail bonds.
Generally, you will only pay a portion of any of the Frisco TX bail bonds to a bondsman. For instance, if a loved one is incarcerated in the Frisco jail and the bond is set at $10,000 by a magistrate, you would probably be charged somewhere between 10% to 20% of the bond by a local bonding company. This fee is called the bond premium. This fee is generally non-refundable, as essentially you are borrowing $10,000 from the bonding company and paying interest on their money. This is how Frisco bonding companies make their money on Frisco TX bail bonds and why they exist.

The relentless waves of depression continue unabated with these two episodes as Satou (hardly recovered from his suicidal exploits) stupidly falls foul to the life sucking world of MMORPGs. These highly addictive and never ending online games are undoubtedly one of the major forces behind what is becoming a worldwide epidemic of hikkimori, but what if, like Satou, you're a hikkimori before even signing in? You already have no work and no responsibilities – so there is no reason for a break, you can just play the game all day and all night without a worry in the world.
The end of episode 15 was a harrowing and unhinged sight. Satou's suicide attempts felt like melodramatic entertainment, as if he was looking for (and found) a reason to survive, but now he appears to be a lost cause, detached from reality and convinced he has somehow improved his life style. MMORPG's offer a gradual yet hollow sense of achievement, making it seem as if going up a few power levels was worth the weeks of effort.
Like most entertainment mediums, MMORPG's are an easy escape from reality, but where movies usually finish after 2 hours; these games can essentially run forever. For an amusing but ultimately just as depressing satire of MMORPGs, take a look at South Park episode 147.
Satou is lucky to have Misaki and even Yamazaki checking up on him. In reality a cute girl does not knock on the door of a hikkimori. Then again perhaps their concerned interference is harming his progress. If Satou is ever going to change, he has to want to do it. No matter how much Yamazaki bugs him about their gal-game or Misaki lectures him about recovering, Satou has to hit rock bottom to decide how he wants to live. Misaki, Yamazaki and even his parents are dragging him on, allowing him to quietly trudge through life, when all he needs is a bit of tough love.

The new measure overrides a previous law dating from 1992 that "prohibited the Department of Veterans Affairs from paying for IVF for veterans and their families," according to NPR. However, in recent years, "political pressure has mounted as hundreds of Iraq and Afghanistan vets returned with blast wounds and other injuries that affect their reproductive abilities."
In other words, some veterans struggle to conceive naturally because of the injuries they sustained in combat. Now, these veterans can safely and affordably access help from fertility experts anywhere in the country -- without having to worry about IVF costs.
One example of a couple who has already benefited from IVF treatments is Tyler and Crystal Wilson, who spoke before Congress about their struggles. Tyler was injured while serving in Afghanistan, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down.
After spending $14,000 on IVF treatments, the couple is now expecting their first child in March. But they hope to use their story to demonstrate how life-changing the new VA coverage could be.
"Our goal always had been 'we'd love to have two,' but it took everything we had for this one," Crystal Wilson said. "This could potentially eliminate a barrier placed on those who have honorably served."
Even for couples with a normal functioning reproductive system between the ages of 29 to 33, the odds of conceiving within any given month are only 20 to 25%. So for couples who are struggling with infertility because of duty-related injuries, the chances may be next to impossible without the help of a team of fertility experts.
Ultimately, Crystal told a Denver news station, "our goal is that no other couple has to go through that struggle when they are already struggling on a day-to-day basis of getting through life paralyzed."
The new bill is certainly a cause for celebration among veterans and their families. To learn about the types of IVF treatments that might qualify for VA coverage, visit your local fertility center or VA office for more information.

英音10: Feeding the world-why we need rice
Rice is low-fat and high in energy, and you can mix it with just about anything to make a wide variety of tasty nutritious dishes. Ask anyone from any country in the world to tell you their favourite rice recipe and you will get a wide selection, ranging from sushi in Japanto risottos in northernItaly.
Rice is closely connected to the culture of many societies. Hindu and Buddhist religions use rice as a religious offering. Burmese folklore uses rice as a central part of their creation story; the gods gave the first people ofBurmarice seeds and directed them toBurma, where the rice would grow well. A Chinese proverb says that 'precious things are not pearls and jade but the five grains, of which rice is the finest.' Chinese myth tells how, after severe floods, there was nothing to eat and the people were starving. One day they saw a dog coming across the fields, and hanging onto the dog's tail were bunches of long yellow seeds. The seeds grew into rice and the people survived.
The origins of rice are uncertain, because rice has been grown for so many thousands of years. In several Asian languages, the words for food and rice, or for rice and agriculture, are the same, one of the facts that points toAsiaas the origin of rice. It is certain, however, that rice cultivation is one of the most important developments in history, for rice has fed more people over a longer period of time than any other crop.
The demand for rice is growing steadily, with consumption stretching beyond the traditional rice growing areas inAsia. You can find rice fields in Europe, Latin America andAustralia. However,Asiais still the biggest rice producer, accounting for 90% of the world's production and consumption of rice.
Rice is a staple food for many countries. In parts of Africa andAsia, many poorer urban families get over half their daily calories from rice. As the world population increases, can rice keep up? To meet growing demands, rice production has to be raised by at least 70% over the next three decades. The area devoted to rice cultivation cannot grow, so much international research is being done to find ways of growing rice on less land.
Rice needs a good water supply to grow. Water is wasted daily all over the world and estimates suggest that most Asian countries will have severe water problems by 2025. It takes 5000 litres of water to grow a kilo of rice, yet many rice growing areas in Asia andAfricaare drought-prone. Scientists need to develop varieties of rice that can withstand sudden heavy rains and compete with weeds.
Worryingly, rice production is affected by global climate changes. Global warming is caused by toxic gas emissions in developed countries. The rise in global temperature cuts rice-growing time, and ultra violet light radiation from the sun reduces tolerance to disease. Methane gas, one of the culprits of global warming, is, ironically, a by-product of wet lowland rice cultivation. Methane-producing bacteria thrive in wet rice fields and the plants themselves send the gas into the atmosphere. Water management could reduce methane emissions, but practical methods that do not reduce rice yields still have to be found.

Coffee beans are one of the most crucial components to making good coffee. One tiny bean, though, has created a big industry. Coffee has been very popular for centuries, and is that is likely to continue for centuries to come. Read on to learn some tips and advice to help you make the perfect brew.
Just like with most things, it's important to buy a high quality coffee. To get the best possible cup of coffee choose your beans and equipment carefully. If you're chintzy when it comes to coffee, you will constantly be disappointed with the quality.
As long as you properly drink coffee, it's actually healthy. The coffee is not unhealthy in itself, but it is the sugar and cream that get added to it. If you want great taste without health risks, consider almond milk latte that is sweet with the taste of stevia or honey.
Pay attention to the quality of your water. Poor tap water can hurt the taste and feel of your coffee. Mineral water should produce the best flavor. If not, the coffee could seem bitter.
It can be confusing to choose from the many varieties of coffee available. Some coffee drinkers prefer a dark roast coffee, and some people prefer a mild and smooth flavor. Other people find that they prefer coffee flavored with tastes such as berries or savory nuts. Many people prefer using a creamer to add flavor instead of flavored coffee.
If you are a fan of iced coffee, try making some coffee, then chilling it in the refrigerator overnight. You will give the coffee time to cool down instead of watering it down with ice when it is hot. Prior to setting the coffee in the fridge, add sugar and milk as desired. This will give you the optimal iced coffee when you wake up.
Now that you have more information about coffee, you will enjoy it more. Make coffee for your friends and family when they visit, and make coffee to enjoy for yourself. You will find your coffee to be more enjoyable when you put these tips to good use.Copyright 2015 , All rights Reserved.

Raiden shuddered at the bodies, sliced open and entrails arranged in a cruel imitation of butterfly's wings. "He's a monster."

Images of the day. From Sketch to the Screen: "Hôtel du Nord" (1938)
Besides classical Hollywood, one of the other periods of film history in which studio production design has been so highly noted is the French poetic realist cinema of the 1930s. That period was the peak of creativity and influence of set designers in French film industry since the magical two-dimensional background paintings of Georges Méliès. The achievements of the era saw the making and consolidation of the reputations of designers in France, and growing critical and public interest in the nature of film design. Collaborations between director René Clair and art director Lazare Meerson had been widely seen in Europe and in even North America, where factory's sets from À nous la liberté (1931) became a source of inspiration for Chaplin's Modern Times (1936).
Among the architects of poetic realist cinema, one of the most skillful, imaginative and prolific was Meerson's assistant, Hungarian born Alexander Trauner (1906-93), whose every work exhibits details at once realist and charged with poetic significance. During his French years and before moving to Hollywood to work for directors such as Billy Wilder and Fred Zinnemann, Trauner had a fruitful collaboration with Marcel Carné in eight and a half films (the half, an unfinished film, was La fleur de l'âge, 1947), that started with Drôle de drame (1937) and comes to an end with La Marie du port (1949).
Between these two films, Trauner is best remembered for creating the gloomy atmosphere of a doomed port in Port of Shadows (1938); the dreamy Paris of 18th century in the Gone with the Wind of French cinema, Children of Paradise (1945); and finally, the reproduction of Paris metro in real scales in Les portes de la nuit (1946), which was a big commercial and critical flop and the end of ambitions of poetic realism.
Hôtel du Nord (1938) was the beginning of making huge and highly detailed sets of a real Paris in the movie studios. For Hôtel, Trauner designed and build the Canal Saint-Martin and the surrounding buildings that were famously incorporated into the visual field of Carné's camera in ways that expand the cinematic space while also extending the authenticity of the Parisian representation:
It was after this hyper-realist approach in film architecture that regular visits by the press to illuminated sets became a step in the pre-publicity of a major French film, with the set open to comment before the release of the film. In this way, the matter of evaluating the set and assessing its contribution to the film's success became a focus of French cinematic discourse (see, for example, Geschite des Films by Enno Patalas and Ulrich Gregor, one of the most important books on the history of EU cinema), with the criteria by the which the set was judged being verisimilitude and an attendant of "visual fluency": "What a designer refrains from doing is almost more important than what he actuallLy does," explain Trauner, "he's like a sculptor who eliminates material from the marble block. He cannot show everything; he chooses the significant elements, the unexpected ones, and these must look true, they must sound right." [1]
Jacques Aumont and Michel Marie in their book L'analyse des films point out that even Andre Bazin in his famous film discourses in "Travail et Culture" paid detailed attention to set design and its elements. According to them, in Bazin's 20-page transcribed lecture on Le jour se lève (Carné/Trauner, 1939) there are numerous mentions of architecture in film, Jean Gabin's hotel room and whatever is "visible" in this room. Bazin shows that how architectural elements are used as a device to predict the tragedy of Gabin and even help in creating the ambience of failure and self-destruction. Trauner saw his role as helping the mise-en-scene so that the spectator had an immediate grasp of the characters' psychology. [2]

Film architecture is created in film studios, places on the fringe of reality. Anything that is built is usually only present in part, and made of impermanent materials. Perhaps it should be called cineplastique. It is a dynamic and constantly transforming architecture, in contrast to the architectural traditions of the real world. Using architectural fragments, models, back projections, mirror tricks, painted backdrops, large-format photographs and virtually generated settings creates this unique world. It is sometimes enough to tell a story if it is simply linked with a building, like the Bates Motel in Psycho or the German fortress in La grande illusion. Yet however near, however tangible film architecture ultimately may seem, it also remains vague, fleeting, and a mere impression. They are projections of dream spaces, designed, shaped and built in a film architect's workshop. As Wolfgang Jacobsen points out, "film is a laboratory of modernism. Film architecture is a laboratory of film modernism." And as an architect, I must confess that I find it more dazzling, more influential, and without doubt more dramatic than real architecture.

A drone crash lawsuit was filed by two wedding guests who say they suffered permanent physical injuries and emotional injuries after a drone crashed into them during the event. The guests, Kneena Ellis and Kelly Eaton, filed the lawsuit against the groom and the event company that planned the wedding reception. Both defendants claim they are not to blame for the accident, but the plaintiffs say the groom should never have been allowed to fly the drone in the first place.
Women Injured in Wedding Drone Crash
Kneena Ellis and Kelly Eaton say they were dancing at a wedding reception at Searles Castle in Windham, New Hampshire in August when a drone crashed into them. In their lawsuit, the women allege the groom, Barry Billcliff, was in control of the drone when the crash occurred. According to the lawsuit, Eaton's nose was fractured in the accident and she suffered a concussion, while Ellis also suffered a concussion and received a laceration that required at least 20 stitches.
The drone was reportedly flying over guests to take photos of the reception when the crash occurred. The lawsuit claims Billcliff and Searles Castle Event Management were negligent in allowing the drone crash to occur, but Scott C. Robb II, vice president of the event management company, maintains he told Billcliff the drone was not allowed.
"I don't know how I could have prevented it," Robb told CBS News. "I thought by telling him it was illegal, 'you can't do this here.' He put it away. End of story. What else could be done?"

Billcliff, meanwhile, says he was on the dance floor when the crash occurred and was not the person controlling the drone, although he reportedly admitted he brought the drone to the wedding and had been flying it earlier in the day along with friends. The groom told the Eagle-Tribune that a friend-who he would not name-had been flying the drone and came forward after learning about the lawsuit.
"He came to me, said, 'You should have just asked, I would have told you I was flying it'," Billcliff said. "He just told me to tell any reporter...it was a complete and utter accident and there was no malicious intent."

Wedding Joy Leads to Drone Commotion
Billcliff's wedding to his now-wife, Nichole, also took place at Searles Castle, just prior to the reception. The groom and three of his wedding guests flew the drone during the day to take photos, but Billcliff says near the end of the night he put the drone down so he could dance with Nichole. At that point, he saw the drone being flown, but says he did not expect an issue to arise and did not see the crash. He further claims that though employees of Searles Castle saw him flying the drone, no one told him was not allowed to or asked him to put it away.
After the drone crashed, paramedics were called in to help the victims.
Drone Use on the Increase
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulates the use of drones. Although personal drone use does not require the FAA's permission, the organization does set guidelines for safe drone operations. Additionally, unmanned aircraft systems (drones) must be registered if they weigh between 0.55 pounds and 55 pounds. Other rules regarding drones include that they must be flown within the operator's range of sight, should not be flown over groups of people, and cannot be flown within 5 miles of an airport unless the airport and control tower have been notified.
The FAA estimates drone sales will hit around 4.8 million in 2017 and could hit 7 million in 2020. Although some will be for commercial use, many will also be for personal use.
With so many drones expected in the air by 2020, chances are the number of injuries linked to drone use could also increase. The wedding crash is not the first injury or incident linked to unmanned aircraft.
Other Drone Related Injuries
In 2014, a drone operated in a New York TGI Friday's during the company's "Mobile Mistletoe" event hit a photographer in the face. The incident, which occurred on December 4, 2014, happened when a drone, which was carrying mistletoe to encourage restaurant-goers to kiss, attempted to land on the table where a photographer sat. One of the aircraft's blades hit the photographer in the nose, taking part of the tip of her nose and cutting her chin.
In 2013, a drone crashed into the stands at Virginia Motorsports Park during an event known as the Great Bull Run. A representative of the Dinwiddie County sheriff's office said four or five people suffered injuries, but those injuries were deemed minor. Victims were treated by EMS personnel onsite and did not require hospitalization. The drone was reportedly being used to take video of the bull run.
Other drone accidents include a crash landing on the White House lawn, a crash near German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and a crash with an Australian triathlete.

Caribbean Stud is enjoyable because of its simple rules and the fact that you can play for a pretty long time even when your bankroll is small. Learning about common mistakes made by beginners is very useful so that you can avoid them, since they can be quite costly.
The game is not played against other players but against the house. It's possible to win the progressive jackpot associated with it by making a $1 side bet. The first and most important thing is to fully understand and learn the rules and basic strategies. Practice can and should come from playing free games before betting with real money.
Folding pairs lower than 5 is a common mistake that players make because they don't want to risk. In reality the dealer hand doesn't qualify 44% of the time, so the chance of beating it with a low pair is more than 50%.
A hand with an Ace and a Queen should be folded. It seems like a powerful combination, but it only wins if the dealer gets nothing. Playing this hand is another beginner mistake.
In order to avoid other these and other mistakes always analyse your hand's strength, don't bet at random and don't bluff.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Madeira District Curriculum
Helping students acquire the skills related to reading informational texts is a central purpose of the elementary school English language arts curriculum in Madeira. Students develop an understanding of how to pull key ideas and details from a text by learning how to ask pertinent questions, survey multiple sources, and make connections between various people and events. Learners also gain insight into the craft and structure of informational texts by examining text features including captions, subheadings, glossaries, and the like. Students work on integrating knowledge from their readings as well. Students use photos and illustrations in a text to determine the purpose of the passage, and review how two authors might view the same event in two completely different manners.
The physical education curriculum in Madeira focuses on helping students develop skills that will improve their overall health and wellness. Students learn how to maintain a healthy body through exercise, nutrition, and healthy choices. Learners explore various aspects of a healthy diet, including identifying the foods they currently eat that are not good for them.
Testimonials and Case Studies from Our Parents
SchoolTutoring Academy has played an important role in improving our son's confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was very self-conscious about her difficulties with the math section of the SAT. SchoolTutoring Academy's Academic Directors created an action plan that boosted my daughter's score and confidence level.
SchoolTutoring Academy has not only improved my son's standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades. Test Prep Academy has not only improved my son's standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades.
SchoolTutoring Academy Increased My SAT Score By 200 Points
My son's math marks in high school have always been weak so I found it very beneficial that his ACT tutor worked on solidifying his fundamentals while prepping for the ACT.
SchoolTutoring Academy gave my daughter the confidence she needed to boost her SAT score Thank you!
SchoolTutoring has played an important role in improving our son's confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was able to improve her test scores after a few months of tutoring with SchoolTutoring. However, while raising test scores is great, the real payoff is in the self-confidence that she gained.
I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank-you! My son is very impressed with his tutor and looks forward to each session. What's particularly amazing about this is our son has never really looked forward to math or school for that matter!
We are so happy with the results of your tutoring program and academic support. Homework time was such a stressful evening for the entire evening before we brought your tutors into our home. Thank you for all your help!
Our daughter, a first grader, struggled with basic reading and handwriting. When she began with SchoolTutoring she was almost a year behind her class. Within a year of being enrolled, she is reading above her grade level and has the confidence to match.

Chalk Talk: Teenagers and School
Teenagers often roll their eyes and think they are "too cool for school," but it is important for parents to keep tabs on their teens' education, while also holding them accountable and responsible. Although teens will never admit it, they want their parents to care about how they are doing in school, and research has shown that teens who have involved parents academically outperform those who do not. Although parents of teens should not go through their folders and make sure they are completing every homework assignment, they should hold their teen responsible and provide consequences if they find out homework is not getting done or grades are slipping. Parents should also hold their teens responsible for being prepared to go to school, as there will be no hand-holding once they move on to college.

Mostly though? We missed Meg.
That probably sounds silly to a lot of you. I know it did to me up until the point we boarded the plane on Tuesday. I thought it would be good to get away, to spend some time alone with my husband, and alone with myself; to remember what it is like to be an "adult" who doesn't think about if a menu has kid friendly foods, or where the nearest "potty" may be in case of emergency.
I did all those things, of course. And it was really nice to sit outside at a bistro talking to Ryan and not worrying about chasing a toddler around the sidewalk. It was nice to hear there was a 30 minute wait for a table at brunch, and not decide to go somewhere else because a meltdown was imminent. For all those nice moments though, there were just so many more moments that Meg would have made better.
Going to the aquarium? Yep. Spying wildlife in the cemeteries? Yep. Checking out the buskers near Harvard. Definitely. Eating anything? Totally. Taking the train? Meg loves trains so much that every ride would have been a treat.
It was Thursday night when Ryan and I finally reached our breaking point. We had both had out moments, but kept telling each other that when we looked back on this trip we would remember just the time we got to spend together, not the time we didn't get to spend with Meg. Then we went to see the movie "Beasts of the Southern Wild."
For those of you who haven't seen it yet, "Beasts" is a pretty heart wrenching movie anyway. It is even more heart wrenching though when you realize the little girl at the center of it, the one who keeps yelling for her "mama" looks very similar like the child you are missing 3-thousand miles away. Oh, and kind of acts like her too.

Dr. Seuss (1904-91), born Theodore Seuss Geisel, was arguably the foremost American childrens writer. Throughout his career, which began as a cartoonist and included a stint writing propaganda films for the war effort during the 1940s, Dr. Seuss is most known for his childrens books, which come with a distinctive nonsense rhyming style based around the repetition of simple words. The 46 books that Dr. Seuss produced include classics such as Horton Hears a Who! (1955), The Cat in the Hat (1957), How the Grinch Stole Christmas (1957) and Green Eggs and Ham (1960).
Since the 00s, Dr. Seusss works have been popular as feature-length cinematic properties. All versions prior to that had been short films that were produced as tv specials the sole exception being the live-action film The 5000 Fingers of Dr T (1953), which was made from an original Dr. Seuss screenplay, although this was a financial flop in its day. This modern spate of Dr. Seuss films began with Ron Howards big-budget production of How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000) and was followed by a live-action version of The Cat in the Hat (2003). Blue Sky Studios next made an animated version of Horton Hears a Who! (2008), on which The Loraxs director Chris Renaud was employed on as a story artist. Ilumination subsequently returned to Dr Seuss with their remake of The Grinch (2018).
The problem with these Dr. Seuss adaptations is that they are required to extend books of around 50-60 illustrated pages out to a feature-length film. Dr. Seusss stories were founded around his absurdist illustrations and nonsense rhymes. In being required to stretch these out to 90-minutes, the films tend to fall back on using the formula of the animated/childrens movie to pad the story thus the child protagonists are brought to the fore and written with a far greater degree of maudlin cuteness; there is far more of a happy feelgood message that Dr. Seuss never went for; minor pieces of background becomes full blown set-pieces; and in the case of The Cat in the Hat, the entire story is blown up into a equivalent of a custard pie fight. Here the Dr. Seuss story is extruded out with the addition of a big climactic chase to preserve the seed as the corporate bad guys attempt to obtain it.
Certainly, you have to commend The Lorax as the film follows the path of the original story closely on all points bar the addition of a few minor supporting characters on the sideline. This does mean that Dr. Seusss original pro-environmental message is laid on with a trowel. Indeed, the film amplifies this to an extent where almost everything is divided along rigid black-and-white lines evil is represented by a city where everything is plastic and artificial and a corporation rules with a paranoid and intrusive iron hand, while on the side of good is the open countryside where animals and fish are allowed to frolic in freedom and trees grow in peace. As a rule, I am in favour of an environmental message but the film seems to overstate the issue with a cudgel even to the extent of including songs about it on the soundtrack. Although such would well appear to have been Dr. Seusss original intent and the original The Lorax (1971) book attained some controversy from the pro-logging movement when it came out.
There is an amiable niceness to The Lorax up on screen but the film never moves outside of the formula of the animated childrens movie. As such, it is down around the level of the average Blue Sky Studios film cute but still trying too hard to find what Pixar does effortlessly. What seems to be lacking here are the charms and appeals that there were to Illuminations Despicable Me. Danny DeVito turns up to voice the role of The Lorax but the character seems surprisingly cuddly, middle of the road and unmemorable, especially given DeVitos history of eccentric roles that hold a malicious bite. There is slightly more in the way of scene stealing cuteness when it comes to the bears and fish that inhabit the valley, although the rest of the film passes into no more than routine formula.

I know that my travel posts are typically on Thursdays, but I don't want to "drag out" my Banff posts for a month or more to only post on Thursdays! So, here is a Travel Monday post that I hope you enjoy. While my Travel Thursday post was all about my afternoon tea experience at the Fairmont, I spent some time wandering about the hotel before and after. I decided to do a separate post to showcase the rest of the hotel and my time there, so I hope you enjoy!
Originally built in the 1880s to serve passengers on the Canadian railways, the hotel was designed by Bruce Price and led by the President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, William Cornelius Van Horne. The buildings you see today were built in the 1910s and the 1920s, with continual redesigns and additions throughout the years. In addition to the Rundle Lounge that hosts tea, there are 10+ dining options to choose from, spa treatments available at the Willow Stream Spa, golfing, and a conference centre. It's also a short walk from the main strip in the town!
Thankfully it was a beautiful 23°C and it made for a beautiful walk. Because it was a Thursday afternoon in early May, it was not particularly busy. What I wouldn't give to make my way through all of these buildings- I suppose it will have to wait for my next visit!
William Cornelius Van Horne himself- this statue dominates the roundabout. It was pretty entertaining to see several tourists take selfies with the statue- I overheard some saying that they thought it was a king or the Prime Minster of Canada. (If you know your Canadian history, you could make the argument that the President of the Canadian Pacific Railway is close to a PM, but that's a discussion for another day…)
The hotel is a historian's dream- a modern hotel with all the amenities you could imagine while maintaining the heritage of those who built it! I was really blown away by all of the details such as the flower arrangements throughout the lobby and the detailing on the light fixtures and chandeliers!
Semper Eadem is a fitting motto for a hotel like the Fairmont- "Ever the same" is the reason why people go out of their way to come to the Fairmont. As a historian who studied and used Latin, I loved seeing this throughout the hotel. Many hotels are quick to embrace the future and forget the past; displaying their motto is the perfect way to maintain those ties.
Of course I had to grab a quick selfie with the hotel and Mount Rundle in the background! Overall, this was a fantastic afternoon and I can't wait for my next visit. Next trip I'll be staying a night there!
What hidden piece of history have you discovered?
Until tomorrow,
The Historian!

Argh! I can't wait to go to Banff!
I love the way it looks like the mountains are sprouting from the top of the hotel!! 😀 <3

Bleg! Chili in Durham?
Who has the best chili in Durham? Actually, who has chili at all in Durham?
Who has the best chili in Durham? Actually, who has chili at all in Durham?
you do mean "bowl of beany goodness" chili, right? Not the mid-southwestern green "chili on everything possible"
Chili at Sunset Grill is pretty servicable if you like a beefy Texas-style chili.
It's chain, but you can't go wrong with Ted's Montana Grill.
I make a pretty good chili, methinks
More or less this one: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Washabinaros-Chili/Detail.aspx
I've never had one anywhere near as good anywhere near here.
I know that wasn't the answer you were looking for…..
would you be willing to be in a contest to prove it?
It's not exactly chili, but you can get this nice bowl of corn soup, which is described as follows: "Creamy corn soup topped with fresh roasted corn, crumbled queso fresco and chile strips…4.25 / 5.95″.
All this can be yours if you drive (or walk) down to Mez. HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW!!!!
Bull McCabe's Irish Pub has Pretty good Chili.
Try Bennett Pointe Grille way out Hillsborough Road. In addition to the chili the fired chicken salad, wings and fried oysters are also pretty darn good. Atmosphere is definitely casual and I think it pulls a mostly northern Durham crowd.
Cool, we love Bennett Pointe Grill (http://carpedurham.wordpress.com/2008/04/28/bennett-pointe-grill/).

Yay!! Its Friday 🙂 So excited for the weekend.
I really wanted to share a sweet treat for this "Friday's Favorites", but it has been SO hot. Which means turning on the oven isn't the most appealing idea, seeing as I don't want to make our place any warmer.
So, I'm going with a no bake recipe. This one is without a doubt a favorite!
These are called fluffernutter cookies! I think the name comes from the marshmallow fluff and peanut butter… either way, such a funny name!!!
Here's what you need:
I'm making 2 kinds of fluffernutters with these ingredients. Might as well go all out!!
The first kind is regular oreos with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff in the middle.
The second kind is vanilla oreos with nutella and marshmallow fluff in the middle.
All you have to do is spread marshmallow fluff on one side and peanut butter/nutella on the other. Seriously, easiest recipe ever.
Squish them together and dip them in chocolate. And boom, you're done!
(Tip 1: I like to freeze them before dipping them because it makes the whole dipping process a WHOLE lot easier)
I put sprinkles on the vanilla/nutella cookies and a peanut butter chip on the chocolate/peanut butter cookies so its easy to tell the difference.
(Tip 2: I like to store them in the freezer so that way they last longer and avoid melting!)
YUM! These are the BEST!! Like I said it is SO hot here right now, that cookie was melting right in my hand!! Guess I'll just have to eat that one 😉
Happy Baking!

The appeal in this matter is now set to be heard by the Court of Appeal for Ontario on Thursday, October 25, 2012.
Three judges of the province's highest court will be considering whether or not the decision of the Honourable Justice Perrell, the first judge who heard the matter over three days, will be upheld, or whether it should be set aside as the Ontario Divisional Court decided was appropriate. There will be submissions made by the lawyers for each side.
The hearing is open to the public, and everyone is welcome to attend.
The appeal is being heard at Osgoode Hall, 130 Queen Street West, the beautiful old building surrounded by wrought iron fence just east of University Avenue on Queen Street on the north side.
The case will be assigned to a Courtroom closer to the appeal date of Thursday, October 25, 2012. The case will start at 10:30 a.m.
Yes, it is a long journey, and we are really still at the beginning. This journey is as important as the destination, and with all of your help, support and good wishes, the hope is that we will persevere somehow.

The new General Collective Agreement for the territory of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (hereinafter: GCA) has been published in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (hereinafter: FBiH), on 22 June 2016, with an aim to regulate those questions not regulated in the new FBiH Labour law or that were contrary to its provisions.
GCA entered into force on 23 June 2016, and is initially concluded for a period of 12 months.
In comparison to the former general collective agreement, the most significant changes relate to the increase of the lowest hourly rate, the decrease of the non-taxable amount of the meal allowance, and the lowering of the percentages by which an employee's salary can be increased.
GCA no longer regulates the compensation of salary in case of death of the employee or his/her closest family members, holiday pay, or compensation during sick leave, considering that these questions will be regulated in the future within the sector-specific collective agreements, specific collective agreements, employment rulebooks or employment agreements.
Determination of the lowest hourly rate
The previous GCA stipulated that the lowest hourly rate cannot be less then BAM 1.75, and that an exceptionally lower hourly rate can only be determined by the sector-specific collective agreements, where the net amount cannot be less then BAM 1.25. According to the new GCA, the lowest hourly rate is determined by the Economic Social Council for the territory of FBiH, at the latest by 1 December of the current year for the next year, for which it is determined that the lowest net hourly rate cannot be lower than BAM 2.31. GCA also makes an exception, stipulating that the sector-specific collective agreements or collective agreements for one or more employers may determine the lower hourly rate, which cannot be less then BAM 1.62 before taxation.
Meal allowance
In comparison to the former general collective agreement, which stipulated that, the employee is entitled to a monthly compensation in the amount of at least 20% of the average net salary in FBiH if the employer does not provide a meal during working hours, GCA prescribes that in this case the employee is entitled to compensation at a daily rate ranging from 0.5% to 1.0% of the average net salary in FBiH.
Increase of salary
The basis for increases in salary is, according to the GCA, lower than that stipulated by the former general collective agreement.
