If you were in charge of running a country, can you think of a better way to unwind than a dip in the ocean? No me neither, and that is exactly what David Cameron, the British Prime Minister has been seen doing, with his wife Samantha in Polzeath. David and Samantha have been holidaying in the beautiful Cornish resort and have been enjoying playing in the surf on their bodyboards.
Dave and 'Sam Cam' are big fans of a Cornish break and have had many happy holidays in Polzeath, you may even remember their daughter Florence was born prematurely on a previous trip to the area in 2010. They were clearly having a lot of fun messing about in the small waves and while Samantha opted for a full length Gul wetsuit, the Prime Minister's choice of rubber was a C-Skins shortie, whilst their personal security team waited on the beach in the rain!
Can you think of a better way to relieve the stress that a world leader must encounter and have you ever seen any other dignitaries in the surf? There will no doubt a few of you out there that if you had seen the PM in the water you would have been tempted to have dropped in on him!

Read the Guardian this morning and you will discover a new study by economists at University College London claims that European migrants give Britain a £20 billion net gain, paying far more in tax than they take in benefits.
Read the Telegraph, however, and their write up of the very same report says the very same experts found that immigration from outside of Europe cost Britain £120 billion. Lots for proponents and opponents of immigration to argue over today.
Cynics might be interested to note the identity of the lead author of today's report. Christian Dustmann also wrote the ill-judged 2003 Home Office report that played down the numbers of EU migrants that would arrive in the country. Back then the study predicted net immigration following the 2004 EU enlargement "will be relatively small, at between 5,000 and 13,000 immigrants per year up to 2010". As UKIP and the Tories love to tell us, we now know that net migration from these countries was over 80,000 per year.
Labour's pro-immigration leadership will be tempted to use today's report as evidence that they were right all along. Given that its author was the 'expert' who told them not to worry about the influx of EU migrants when they were in power – one of the main reasons the party's working class support is deserting it for UKIP – they might want to be careful. Something to think about when reading today's report, anyway.

As former NBA star Lamar Odom continues to make progress following his recent hospitalization after being found unresponsive in a Nevada brothel, the headlines swirl regarding the involvement of his soon-to-be ex-wife, Khloe Kardashian, in his medical care.
Multiple news outlets report that Mr. Odom and Ms. Kardashian signed their divorce judgment in or around July, 2015, but their Judgment of Dissolution — the final decree of divorce terminating their marital status — has not yet been entered by the court.
Therefore, Mr. Odom and Ms. Kardashian are still legally husband and wife. As a result, without Mr. Odom having an Advance Health Care Directive appointing someone other than his wife to make medical decisions on his behalf, Ms. Kardashian has been made responsible for this great task.
Friends and loved ones routinely, though unintentionally, can give you bad or incorrect advice when the subject of divorce rears its ugly head. While those close to you are important to lean on in such a personal, uncertain and transitional time in your life, it is vital to speak with a skilled family law attorney to ensure that whatever path you go down, it is legally and factually correct. Doing so will help you avoid each of the following bits of "advice" that are not correct and can actually cause problems in any divorce proceeding.
One of the more challenging tasks family law practitioners are faced with is balancing their client's often compelling and moving story against evidentiary rules and practices in court and in pleadings. While the client's story can be compelling due to how serious and emotional the matter is, often much of their story is not admissible in court due to the rules of evidence.
On July 20, 2015, in the seminal case of In re Marriage of Davis, the California Supreme Court ruled that a couple is only living separate and apart when they no longer reside together under the same roof. Thus, while the marriage may be over on an emotional, sexual or even public level, the spouses are not living separate and apart so long as they continue to reside together in the same household.Learn more
Spouses, either consciously or unconsciously, take on certain roles in marriages, whether by choice, by default or by virtue of a personality trait. Common examples are the roles of the breadwinner and caretaker of the children. Another illustration involves the financial dealings for the family: one spouse may handle them all, while the other spouse chooses to not be involved or is kept in the dark. Whichever role a spouse plays in the marriage, that role often continues into a divorce.
Reprinted from the Tuesday, July 14, 2015 Los Angeles Daily Journal, Marlo Van Oorschot's article titled "How to value a small business when getting a divorce" explores why a small business may have value in a divorce despite the possibility of having no future value if the operating spouse left the business.

He's making a living, working 9 to 5, but now his wife believes he could be making more. He's a smart man, with a Master's degree, and 18 years of experience in his field. However, he earns under $75,000 a year, and with the possibility of a spousal support order in the distant future, his wife believes her soon-to-be ex-husband could earn more; in fact, he has earned more in the past. Thus, how can the wife prove to the court that her husband has the ability to earn more money, and thus increase the possibility of a higher spousal support order?Learn more
When a couple gets divorced, one of the first things either person worries about is the cost. While managing the cost is a reasonable concern, the reality is….here is the honest answer….divorce is expensive. Unless there are no children, virtually no assets, each person is self-supporting and there is no issue of domestic violence, divorce is going to be costly. Think about the reason why. Likely no other area of the law, in a single lawsuit, presents the parties and their lawyers with the myriad of different and often unrelated legal and emotional issues which must be handled.Learn more
The receipt of spousal support and a share of the community property in a divorce does not relieve the spouse who is being financially supported from being accountable for his or her financial future. Just when one thinks they are free from scrutiny, they are not.
Supported spouses (in other words, a divorced spouse who receives support payments as part of the divorce settlement) are put under a microscope by both the courts and the spouse supporting them in a proceeding to modify or terminate spousal support. In addition to the analysis of their employment capabilities and receipt of other income, a supported spouse's investment strategies will be analyzed as a factor to determine whether they have reasonably managed their share of the marital estate and are entitled to an increase or continuation of spousal support.Learn more
In a family law proceeding, one of the most sensitive and emotionally charged areas –for both the family law attorney and the client- typically concerns issues surrounding custody and visitation of the children.
Because the two parents are now adversaries, seemingly innocuous issues (for example, the completion of the child's homework) may be blown out of proportion. This can lead to a bigger dispute that may impact the parent's visitation with the child, or even draw into question the fitness of the parent.
For parties in a family law proceeding where children are involved, all issues may seem like emergencies. As a result, the family law attorney is often faced with the difficult task of balancing the client's interests, as well as their serious concerns regarding the actions of the other parent, within the boundaries and restrictions of the Family Code.Learn more
Marlo says..."A great way to help alleviate your concerns is to learn more about the process. Reviewing this information could also help you develop questions you hadn't thought of before."

Competition: Confederations Cup
Date: 18 June 2017
Stadium: Otkrytiye Arena (Moskva)
where fisrt half ?
OUTSTANDING commentary by Wagner (sitting next to a veteran American commentator) — incredibly well-spoken and articulate. Too bad British sports TV channels don't seem keen to follow on such high standards set by female football commentators in US.
its cause they arent as exciting :/
FS soccer commentators suck bigtime, regardless of gender.
This video referee things is hella dumb. I mean it works but it kills the game. Every time something happens theres a pause in the game and the whole momentum and passion is lost. Like how can you celebrate 2-3 mins after a goals been scored. The human error is part of what makes the game good. I say the most we need is the goal decision system.
Bad commentators, no offside on the second clearly as the defenders came back.
Chile play great
thanks for the video. chile now has gold generation 🙂

After painting every wall surface on the first floor, Frank took a much deserved break from DIY projects. But he couldn't rest for long- we had a baby on the way and a nursery to create! We decided to change the bedroom we had been using as an office into the baby's room. It was obvious that the room has previously been painted blue and they had simply slapped on some white paint when they put the house on the market. Of course, they were lazy and didn't paint the closet so it was still baby blue.
We had a tough time deciding on a color scheme for the room that we both liked. At least we could agree on one thing- no pink! We ended up going with a color scheme that incorporated some framed artwork we already had and maybe supported our favorite alma mater just a bit. :) Frank did such a great job on the stripes- he was so diligent about getting them to look good! The crib and bookcase are new, but we hit up a consignment shop and Craiglist for the dresser and glider. I hope to paint the dresser white sometime in the future, but it works for now. And I haven't decided what sort of window treatments to go with the existing blinds; any ideas?
So, thanks to my fabulous husband, we have a great nursery for our little Jayhawk to come home to!

Easy like 1x1
Sára Dányádi, Johanna Gadó and Krisztina Komlós have dreamt the 1x1 project which draws attention to the active and creative urban citizen behaviour and encourages it. They thought that by "adopting" only one square feet of it and making it nicer we can create a more friendly, colourful and liveable city we live in and we can bring a smile to the rushing, often grumpy people's every days.
"1x1 meter and the city is yours!" – This is the slogan of the project which became more successful than expected on 2013's spring. The three fresh grad girls get inspired in dreaming the project of that general attitude that we don't consider the public places ours because we are waiting for someone who will reform the abandoned, unused or less pleasing urban spaces sometimes.
The realization of the project was supported by the "YOU TOO" Foundation through European Union's Youth in Action Programme. The foundation rewarded projects dealing with popularization of volunteer work, this is how – inter alia- 1x1 project was chosen. The project appeared as a tender on the spring of 2013, the applicants could win tickets to different cultural programmes by "adopting" smaller or bigger orphaned public places waiting for renovation, but something tells me it was just cherry on the cake. The initiative is heart-warming and smile bringer: put in order a small place next to the closest bus stop on a sunny afternoon is a good relaxation itself. Not to mention that after then our day starts nicer every morning when we wait for the bus, and also everyone else's who walks by.
The enthusiasm of the participants, interested people, the different offerings which facilitated the smoother and more eventful transaction of the project were such big experiences (also) for the organizers which made be worth to start the project. "We experienced that there is entrepreneurship and also need for similar movements, so it seems that the problem is very much actual."
"Everyone knows famous graffiti, iconic city elements. Maybe the works made for 1x1 can become like them, since its point is the same: tagging the place, leaving a contact, of course doing it in the best meaning and with the best will."
Doing "onetimesone" needs a little time and more and more creativity, maybe some money to buy the materials for the titivation, however the most creative ideas can be realized from pennies. An abandoned playground, a long-time empty concrete flower stand, the fans of the underground tunnel, dustbins, sidewalks, window of a closed shop, stump can be suitable targets – just to mention a few of the artworks.
Be cheerful, be colourful, imaginative, it's not even a problem if not too functional. Make the city nicer, make the days of people nicer. Competition or not, walk with open eyes in the city, and you can also adopt 1x1 meter!

30-sec video clip 10Star Home Launch
From video
Energy Efficient Home Scores Perfect 10
3 News_5 Aug 2015
The most energy efficient house in the country has been officially unveiled in Christchurch.
Its designer had been aiming for a nine-star energy efficiency rating and this afternoon he was awarded a perfect 10 – the first ever in Australasia.
Most houses in New Zealand only carry a three-star energy efficiency rating – the minimum requirement of the building code.
So for the three-bedroom, two-storey Addington home to achieve a perfect 10, architect Bob Burnett had to think outside the box.
That includes 18 solar panels neatly tucked out of view on the roof, generating ample electricity. It's seriously insulated of course and has in-floor heating and a reclaimed heat ventilation system.

The films were originally shot 1967 to 1978, by Barry, Linda, and Jim. They are on Super 8mm film, at 18 frames per second, color, and silent. As far as we can remember, there were two different cameras, both Kodak Instamatic movie cameras. The first was the M2, which was used for the earliest few movies. Then probably around 1970 or so, we must have bought the M26. Maybe the old one broke.
We (Chris, Nancy, Casey, Jim, and Linda) used to watch the movies, with our movie projector and screen, quite often as kids. The projector had a storage compartment in the bottom where we kept some of the films, and others we kept in a box. As far as I can determine, there were a total of thirty films (possibly more, but if so then not many more). Some of the reels were labeled, and some of the reel covers were labeled. Most had no labelling. Each film was about 3 minutes long.
Sometime around 1985 or 1986, Nancy took most of the films (28 of them) and had them copied onto a VHS tape. For this process, she labeled the films numbered from 1 to 28, but not in chronological order.
As time went on and the kids moved away, the films remained in the house. At some point, the projector was given to Good Will. As far as I can figure, probably some of the films were still in the storage compartment of the projector, because as of today there are still 5 films missing.
In 2005, I began to get interested in gathering all the films and archiving them in some way. I decided that digitizing them and storing them on the computer would be worthwhile. Mom (Linda) gave me all the films she could find, and gave them to me. There were 25 films in all.
I also located the VHS tape that Nancy had made, and compared what was on the tape to the films I had in-hand. There were 4 films on the tape that I didn't have. (There was also one film I had that wasn't on the tape.) That makes 29 total, and I can remember one scene (from watching as a kid) that is not on either the VHS tape or in any surviving film, so that makes 30 films in all:
I sent the 25 surviving films to ForeverOnDVD.com for digitizing. The process they use is essentially to take each frame of the film and scan it into the computer. The process uses a dim light, so as not to "blow-out" the colors. Also, I had them specially alter their device so that it would scan in the whole original film frame, instead of cropping it like most places do. You can even see some of the sprocket holes in the scanned image, to make sure none of the original frame was lost.
The image was standard NTSC resolution, with progressive frames. This means that each original film frame becomes one 720 by 486 pixel image on the computer. The standard film length for these 3-minute reels is 3600 frames. Some films had a bit more, some had fewer.
In the process, the original short films were spliced together into 3 large reels. There are now in my posession, and stored in good archival film containers in the freezer (which is the recommended way to preserve film reels).
I used a normal VCR to play the tape through a Panasonic GS400 video camera, which digitized the images into DV (digital video) format. From there they were streamed directly to the computer. I captured them into two AVI-format files, with the video 4CC format of "dvsd". After studying these files, I realized that when the original tape was made (1985-6), there was no synchronization between the film projector and the video camera tying to capture the images. Since the video was interlaced screens at 60 frames per second, and the film was running at 18 frames per second [NEW DISCOVERY (2017) they actually played the film too fast when recording it, somewhere around 19 frames per second], this lead to varying "combing" of the images as odd rows from one frame were interlaced with even rows from the next frame. Even individual fields contained "double exposures" of two consecutive film frames; those fields would need to be removed as much as possible. The pattern varied throughout the films. I used the AviSynth program, and went through each film frame-by-frame manually and matching each one with its corresponding frame to reconstruct the original film frames. The process achived pretty good results, with most frames being able to match up pretty well. Of course, the quality is not as high as the digitization directly from film.
Once all the films and VHS tape sections were digitized and put on the computer, I was able to process the videos to clean them up. Using the AviSynth program, along with various other free plug-ins, I was able to correct some of the following things:
The images are stretched horizontally, because each image is intended for ultimlate display on a TV screen, which shrinks images horizontally. So, for display on the computer, I needed to squeeze them horizontally and remove 3 pixel rows from the top and bottom to achieve the standard size of 640 by 480 pixels.
I added some captioning in the videos of key dates and places.
The final step was to compress the videos using the x264 codec. This is a high-quality compressor that maintains a high-quality image that is nearly identical to the original, but that is small enough to be downloaded over a DSL or Cable internet connection while watching it. This ability is what allowed YouTube to become famous. I uploaded each video to YouTube. You can see the set of videos on my Films page. Click on a video to take you to a page that lets you play the video (embedded from YouTube), and has a brief description of the scenes in the film.

Stencil Work
I have thought about using stencil's and spray paint to create a graffiti style effect to my illustrations. Graffiti is synonymous with rebellion and youth culture, which is the aspect I'm most trying to portray about these musicians. I also think I will focus less on the 1960's and more on artists that really focused on these issues, for example Bob Dylan, Rolling Stones, The Who, Sex Pistols and maybe some more modern bands.
My aim is to make the CD cases I make the canvas for the stencil and have an image that uses the whole space avaliable.

I was watching Wendy Williams one day last week — how you doin'? — and American Idol alum Jordin Sparks was on there discussing her recent breakup with pop singer Jason Derulo (with his fine, caramel-drizzled self).
Supposedly the two parted ways after spending three years together, because there was a lot of pressure on Jason to pop the question. No bueno.
I've learned the hard way that putting too much pressure on a man is like trying to start up a car with no gas — it just ain't gonna work, honey.
Whether or not that was actually the case with Jordin and her ex boo, I had to give it to homegirl — she didn't seem the least bit stressed or depressed over the split. Throughout the entire interview — and you know Wendy was digging for all of the dirt, with her crazy self — Jordin remained calm, cool, collected, classy and very, very confident. You go, girl.
One thing she shared that really enlightened me was how she has learned to cope with unexpected situations, such as her recent breakup. She said whenever her life takes a major turn, she calls it a "plot twist" and then readjusts herself accordingly.
Think of when you're watching a movie or reading a novel. Generally, the most exciting part is the plot twist — the major turning point in the story that we don't see coming. It can throw us off for a minute and simultaneously make everything leading up to that moment make so much more sense.
But when this very thing happens to us in real life, we panic and wish fervently that things would just go back to the way they were before. So basically, we expect more versatility from a novel/movie than we do in our own lives. How pathetic does that sound?! Very.
I've experienced a ton of plot twists in my life — a lot of them were totally unexpected and extremely overwhelming to endure. But by the grace of God, I would always find a way to readjust and adapt to my new situations. And eventually, when I would look at everything in retrospect, things would become so much clearer to me.
So Jordin, if you happen to stumble across this blog post one day, this one is for you, with your classy, confident, 'plot-twist expert' self. You go, girl.

Updated Rey and Charles Eames hanger…
This is an image I found this morning and couldn't stop smiling. It pictures the work of Columbian artist Gabriel Sierra. It is so fresh and inspiring! Especially comparing to the work of most of the designers that are going ,,experimental,, and ,,artistic,,… Like the chair (pic.) of the young (and awarded) Dutch designer Pepe Heykoop. I'm not trying to say that designers can't or shouldn't do free, artistic work. It's more about how they position it and where they get their inspiration from.
"Hang it all" originally designed for Tigrett Enterprises Playhouse division in 1953. Material : Steel frame with white powder-coat finish, solid wood balls painted in ninecolors (purple, yellow, blue, green, red, pastel pink, mustard, bold pink, and black) 50cm x 35cm x 16 cm ( each one ). Reedited by Vitra.

Last Friday at the Academy we had a lecture by Eames Demetrios. He is a charming man, a film maker and the grand son of designers Ray and Charles Eames. The presentation made me even more enthusiastic about them and their work. Personal pictures and stories, insights in Eames creative and family life, it added a whole new dimension to the ingenious objects they made.
"Take your pleasure seriously," said Charles Eames. And it sums up one vein of his and Ray Eames' work. Together, they created the House of Cards, in 1952.
"The toys are not as innocent as they appear."
They said that the most important thing is to be a good host and to treat the person who will use your design as a guest.
Here is a drawing with everything that is going on at the same time in a house.
"Beyond the age of information is the age of choices."
Stamps with Eames' work.
One of them- a Christmas card with their picture they sent to friends.

"Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool, Much less lying lips for a noble."
Proverbs 17:7
If any of ya'll have watched the Veggie Tales version of Esther at least a dozen times (smile), you'll remember the scene where Haman (Mr. Lunt) tries to bribe Mordechai (Pa Grape) into bowing before him; having just had dinner with the King and Queen. Pa Grape- I mean, Mordechai, shoots back with this verse- Proverbs 17:7.
Until our Scripture study this morning I didn't realize that he was actually quoting Scripture, I always thought that he was just "speaking the wisdom of an old man." When I saw this verse on the other side of the page we were discussing, I thought "Oh, so that's where that came from! Neat…"
So anyway, I just wanted to share that.

What is CSA?
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a model that allows people to partner with a local farm by pre-ordering a basket of vegetables to be delivered weekly throughout the harvest season.
Essentially, we become a "partner" by purchasing a part of the harvest in advance.
How does it work?
Members buy a share of the produce at the beginning of the year and receive a box of food every week throughout the harvest the season (15 to 20 weeks). Boxes can be picked up at a designated pickup point or at the farmer's market.
Members can share the natural risks and rewards of farming and gain a better understanding of the real cost of their food, while knowing that they are investing in their local economy, culture, and food security. CSA also lets the growers focus on healthy, bountiful crops during the season as opposed to concentrating on mass production which reduces the quality of food.
Benefits for consumers
- Food security
- A steady supply of fresh, locally grown and high quality food
- Knowing the people who are growing your food
- Knowing how it was produced
- A fixed price for products for the whole growing season.
- Community connection: building relationships between customers, farmers, neighbours, and communities.
- Discovering different products and recipes.

Sarah Burke
Burke in 2010
|Personal information
|Birth name
|Sarah Jean Burke
September 3, 1982
Barrie, Ontario, Canada
January 19, 2012 (aged 29)
Salt Lake City, Utah, U.S.
|Rory Bushfield (2010–2012; her death)
Medal record
Sarah Jean Burke[1] (September 3, 1982 – January 19, 2012) was a Canadian freestyle skier who was a pioneer of the superpipe event.[2][3] She was a four-time Winter X Games gold medallist, and won the world championship in the halfpipe in 2005. She successfully lobbied the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to have the event added to the Olympic program for the 2014 Winter Olympics. She was considered a medal favourite in the event. Burke died following a training accident in Utah.
Early life[edit]
Burke was born in Barrie, Ontario, to Jan Phelan and Gordon Burke, both artists.[4] She and her sister, Anna Phelan,[5] grew up in Midland[6] and attended Midland Secondary School.[7]
Skiing career[edit]
As a teenage mogul skier, Burke would often sneak onto the Snowboard halfpipe at the end of the day.[6] She was considered a pioneer in the sport of superpipe skiing, along with American Kristi Leskinen. The pair were frequent competitors, and often against male skiers.[8][9]
Burke won first place in the 2001 US Freeskiing Open in the half-pipe event and finished second in slopestyle. She and Leskinen were the only women who competed against the men. In 2004, Burke lobbied ESPN to include a division for women skiers at its Winter X Games. In 2005, ESPN added women's freeskiing to the X-Games.[10]
When half-pipe made its debut at the 2005 FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships, she emerged as the first world champion.[11] Burke is also a four-time Winter X Games gold medallist in freestyle skiing.[12][13] She was the first woman ever to land a jump with 1080-degree rotation in competition.[14]
She won ESPN's 2001 Award for female skier of the year and was voted 2007's Best Female Action Sports Athlete at the ESPY awards.[15]
She regularly participated in skiing films, including Propaganda, in which she showcased her skills by sliding huge rainbow rails, spinning a huge 540 in the pipe and throwing back-flips.[16]
Burke was a known promoter of the superpipe skiing event, working to have it added to the Olympic program. She failed to have the event added in time for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, but successfully lobbied the International Olympic Committee to have the event added for the 2014 Sochi Games.[6] Two years ahead of the games, she was considered a potential favourite for the gold medal in Sochi.[17]
Personal life[edit]
Burke met freeskier Rory Bushfield when she was 14 at a ski camp in Whistler, British Columbia.[18] On September 25, 2010, she married Bushfield in Pemberton, British Columbia, with pro skier Luke Van Valin officiating the wedding.[4][19] She and Bushfield resided in Squamish, British Columbia.[20]
Accident and death[edit]
On January 10, 2012, Burke was seriously injured while training on the Park City Mountain Resort Eagle superpipe in Park City, Utah. [21]This is the same superpipe where snowboarder Kevin Pearce was seriously injured in 2009. Onlookers reported that Burke had completed a trick fairly well yet fell onto her head, and the accident did not appear to be very severe.[14] Moments later, however, she went into cardiac arrest while still on the ski slope.[22] She was resuscitated and airlifted to the University of Utah Hospital in Salt Lake City, where she was reported to have been placed in a medically induced coma.[23] The following day, she underwent neurosurgery to repair a tear in a vertebral artery. She died of her injuries on January 19, 2012.[24] According to her publicist, Burke's injuries had resulted in "irreversible damage to her brain due to lack of oxygen and blood after cardiac arrest."[25] Her organs and tissues were donated as she requested before her death.[6] Because the event at which she fell was unsanctioned and hosted by Burke's sponsor Monster Energy, Burke was not covered under the insurance policy that applied to her when she competed for the Canada Freestyle Ski Association. The day after Burke's death, her agent established a website to raise $550,000 to help pay her estimated $200,000 hospital costs and establish "a foundation to honour Sarah's legacy and promote the ideals she valued and embodied."[26] On February 23, 2014, Sarah's ashes were spread in the mountains over Sochi, Russia, during the 2014 Olympic Games. Her former coach, Trennon Paynter, spread them on the highest point at Rosa Khutor complex, and in the halfpipe.[citation needed]
On June 12, 2012, the Canadian Olympic Committee announced that Burke was inducted into the 2012 Canadian Olympic Hall of Fame for her role in advocating for ski halfpipe's inclusion in the Olympic program.[27][28]
In 2014, Burke was posthumously inducted into the Canada's Sports Hall of Fame.[29]
In February 2014, Canada Post produced commemorative stamps honouring Burke, curler Sandra Schmirler and figure skater Barbara Ann Scott for being "pioneers of winter sports".[30]
Burke was honoured on National Flag of Canada Day on February 15, 2014. The flag will be given to Burke's family as a tribute to her legacy.[31]
At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, the IOC refused permission for snowboarder Torah Bright to wear a tribute sticker to Burke during the Games. Before the finals of halfpipe started, the event volunteers paid tribute to Burke by skiing in a heart-shaped formation.[32][33]
In March 2014, the Government of Ontario announced that it would dedicate Highway 93 in memory of her and name it as the Sarah Burke Memorial Highway.[34] The route extends entirely within Simcoe County with its southern terminus near Barrie, Ontario, her birthplace.
On October 17, 2016, Burke was part of the class inducted into the Ontario Sports Hall of Fame at the Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel.[35]

The singer drops a firey cover of a classic.
Out of nowhere, singer C.S. Armstrong dropped a cover of the classic Bobby "Blue" Bland song, "Ain't No Love". Most of us are used to hearing this loop from Jay Z's Blueprint album. C.S. takes this song and makes it his own by bleeidng all over it with his passionate vocals and crazy production. Comment sections have agreed that this song is hard to find so we've provided a few places to find this jam. Check the links below and support this talent.

2010 Victory Cross Country
Victory has been designing and engineering the Cross Roads and Cross Country motorcycles for their touring range for the past three years. That got our attention and while we've recently talked a bit about the Cross Roads model, it is now time to see what makes the Cross Country model even better. The competition isn't out of our equation, so we'll start by getting to know the bike better before starting being impressed (because there's plenty to be impressed about).
2010 Victory Cross Country
Engine:4-stroke 50° V-Twin
Transmission:6-speed constant mesh
Horsepower @ RPM:92 hp
Torque @ RPM:109 ft-lbs of torque
Energy:Electronic Fuel Injection with dual 45mm throttle body
Displacement:1,731 L
Top Speed:125 mph
Victory presents the Cross Roads and Cross Country as being part of the same project and the fact is that they really are, but people aren't going to buy both bikes, so it is better to try and individualize them a bit. So if you've read our 2010 Victory Cross Roads review, you'll notice the Cross Country model features a veritable touring fairing instead of just the protective windshield. But the fact is that this bike has plenty more to brag about than just that. For instance, it features cruise control, a dual-speaker audio system and an MP3 connector. This indicates that the Victory Cross Country is a much better recommendation for those long rides from coast to coast, without us being even needed to mention the bike comes with passenger floorboards, a spacious seat (which is also the lowest in its class) and adjustable bars.
This bike's 4.7 inches of suspension travel and the 21 gallons of cargo capacity, ensured only by the sidebags, also recommend it for the open road. In fact, this bike comes with a very low center of gravity and seat height (26.25 inches) and this means it won't turn into a nightmare when it comes to slow speed maneuvering around the parking lot for example. Certainly an advantage will be the fact that it is built to go fast and safe around corners in an attempt to receive better recommendations than the competition already gets.
92-hp fuel injected V-twin engine
Now that's a tough battle to start and the fact is that Victory doesn't just rely on great handling achieved with ingenious and already known engineering tweaks, but on a new generation Freedom engine powering the Cross Country and also found on the Cross Roads. The 106ci (1,731cc) 4-stroke 50° V-Twin unit uses a single overhead camshaft to open and close each cylinder's four valves, it is fed by an electronic fuel injection system using 45mm throttle bodies and breaths out through a split dual exhaust with crossover. All this translates in 92 hp and 109 ft-lbs of torque. Not only that is impressive for the category, but how Victory engineers managed to keep the engine lively all across the rev range and not just above idle.
Passing power was a thing of crucial importance, given the fact that the Cross Country will most often be ridden on highways and the consistent power and torque manage to offer that at all times. Furthermore, the transmission's six-speed overdrive reduces vibrations and improves mileage without interfering with passing power, which is a nice thing to have.
Virtually everything that Victory thinks about when creating a brand new bike such as the Cross Country is competition. Indeed, people have stopped calling them "the other American motorcycle manufacturer" and it seems that Victory is aware of the long ride in front on them. That is why you'll see them working their way in the collective mentality and comparing their products with those of Harley's along the way. In this case, the 2010 Harley-Davidson FLHX Street Glide is very good bike to try beating.
To begin with, the HD motorcycle is powered by the famous 96ci (1584cc) air-cooled, Twin Cam engine featuring pushrod-operated, overhead valves with hydraulic, self-adjusting lifters; two valves per cylinder. Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection also feeds HD's engine, which is coupled to a six-speed cruise drive transmission.
The Road Glide, like all other Harley bikes, offers riders a unique sound and feel, something that cannot be replaced by a slightly lower seat (considering the fact that the Street Glide's seat is only 26.30 inches from the ground) and more cargo capacity (the Street Glide only offers 16.9 gallons of cargo capacity). Also, the bike comes with a 40-watt, two-speaker Advanced Audio System by Harman/Kardon wCD/MP3 player, optional ABS and electronic cruise control. The starting price for solid colors is $18,999, for two-tones it is $19,479 and for custom colors it is $19,899.
We're not gonna go ahead and say the 2010 Victory Cross Country looks better than a 2010 Harley-Davidson Street Glide, but we'll simply have to say that it looks rather interesting. Victory designers are no strangers to smooth flowing lines and ergonomics, so if we wouldn't know this thing is actually built for the road, we would have simply said it belongs at a modern art exposition or something (take notice that not all the stuff there is pretty).
The Cross Country is characterized by a large front fairing and a small windscreen. Both these pieces have the purpose of keeping wind away from the rider's head, chest and arms. The central point is the headlight (also used on the Cross Roads). This features a unique shape and it is nicely contoured in order to stand out. The bike is rather imposing and the massive front wheel and fender are both practical and big.
Looking at this bike, it is clear that it hasn't got much to do with the original American touring motorcycle frenzy, but it looks like an arrow shot into the future. Everything is there with a purpose and somehow it doesn't manage to look so strange either. The only thing that looks classic on it is the V-Twin engine. Everything else (the wheels, gas tanks, seat, rear fender with the LED taillight and signal lights as well as the spacious sidecases) is as modern as possible. So are the solid (Solid Black, Solid Midnight Cherry) and multiple (Black & Graphite with Extreme Skulls) colors available.
Press Reviews
"With the Cross Country's Freedom 106, Victory wanted a broad, flat torque curve with good midrange. And midrange is not a problem for the 1731cc engine. Its torque curve is flat and horsepower is climbing, so its midrange is solid. But in lower gears, the engine didn't give much below 3000 rpm, which surprised us seeing how this lack of power down low hadn't materialized in other versions of the Freedom 106 we've tested." – motorcycle-usa
"Victory's 106-cubic-inch Freedom mill still delivers adequate power and a barrelful of torque-certainly enough to pass just about anything that slows you down." – motorcyclistonline
"With no downtubes, the aluminum frame lets the Cross bikes carry Victory's usual 106-cubic-inch 50-degree V-Twin nice and low, and the seats on the new bikes are likewise a mere 26.2 inches from the pavement." – cycleworld
"Cornering clearance is ample and I never wished for more in the Hill Country, and steering is low effort and quick enough that you can have quite a bit of fun in the corners, even on the Country with its fork-mounted, electronics-laden fairing." – ridermagazine
"A potential drawback with the fairing – depending on rider height – is the amount of buffeting we experienced from around 70-75 mph and up. Depending on conditions, buffeting can be prominent." – motorcycle
The US MSRP for a 2010 Victory Cross Country starts at $17,999, exactly $1 grand less than for a Road Glide painted in a solid color. That is no reason for a HD fan to change brand, but it is a clear advantage for Victory in the fight for supremacy on the open road.
If there's one certain thing that Victory shows with the launch of the all-new Cross Country model, given the fact that the Cross Roads only would have simply been enough, is the fact that they've learned to offer diversity and so gain popularity on such a competitive market. We're expecting more of this from the Polaris Industries brand.

binomial coefficient
A binomial coefficient is any of the coefficients of the powers of x or y in the expansion (see binomial theorem) of (x + y)n.
The binomial coefficient of a typical term x(n - m)ym, written nCm, or (mn), gives the number of ways of picking m unordered outcomes from n possibilities, and is also known as a combination. It has the value n!/(n - m)!m!
The binomial coefficients form the rows of Pascal's triangle.

Don't stuff your blog posts with keywords and don't overload your blog with Adsense ads, plug-ins or large images. If you do this, search engines will flag you, negating all the work you are doing. Keep your writing organic, and allow it to flow smoothly.
Making frequent and interesting comments on the blog's of other people is a great way to increase exposure to your own. Google Reader is a great way to organize and manage other interesting but related blogs. Whenever you have the urge to say something, make a comment on them.
Frequently update your blog's content. New content is essential for finding new viewers and keeping the ones you have. If you do not offer new content often, readers will have no motivation to keep visiting. A regular, daily blog post is a good goal to give yourself.
Create a blog that is unlike any other. Stick with interesting, unique content. Using rare information is also good. Write about a hobby or experience that is different. You can give complex details about constructing a widget. The point of this is to provide your readers with a reason to check you out when they are looking for information.

I have a bunch of unfinished projects. And I'm not talking about a need to do some stash busting, where you have a lot of raw materials that need to be turned into a project. I have a bunch of started projects that I have in one way or another stalled out. I thought that I would share them here with you for maybe just a little accountability, even if it's just the fact that I have now proclaimed to the world that I'm a staller.
1. That's my first sock, ever! I've got one finished and one on the needles. I'm doing a pretty good job of working on it every day
2. Hannah's quilt. She picked out the pattern a few, ahem, years ago and I've decided to start on it, finally, but you see how far that's gone.
3. That's a quilt for Joel and mine's bed. Just got a huge amount of fat quarters for it and have started cutting, but not anywhere near starting to sew. I project this to take five years to complete, easy, especially considering I've been sitting on the pattern for three or four years and it's for a king size bed.
4. A lap quilt for my mom. It's pretty much pieced, other than the border. So it needs to have the border, quilting, and then binding to be completed for her birthday on the 7th of February.
5. I've been working on this place mat and napkin set for about six months. It's printed cross stitch and I'm pretty sure that I'm going to give it to my brother and his bride. I had hoped for this past Christmas, but just did not get it done in time and so it has sat there, waiting.
6. This yarn is actually stash that has plans for it, Hannah's socks but I have to finish number one before I get to number six, or I guess I could just buy another set of needles :D
Like I said, these are the things that I found at hands reach, they do not include the Christmas apron I started years ago, the smocking projects I've started in the past, or the writing that I do for either reviews or the book I'm hoping to submit for publication later this year.
Are you stalled out on any of your projects? Feel free to tell me all about them so we can be overwhelmed together

As reported few days ago, Microsoft did said that they "expect the development to take approximately 3 years since the release of Windows Vista" lending credit to a late 2009/early 2010 release.
Mary Jo Foley: This is just a quick post to help guide those who aren't used to Micro-speak.
Contrary to many blog posts you may have read over the past day or so, Windows 7's due date has not slipped — at least not yet. This is the exchange between Microsoft and site WinVista Club that many sites have been quoting to prove that Windows 7, the successor to Vista, is running late:
Q: (From WinVista Club): "What is the expected timeline for the availability of Windows 7?"
A. (From Microsoft, via email): "We are currently in the planning stages for Windows 7 and expect it will take approximately 3 years to develop. The specific release date will be determined once the company meets its quality bar for release."
Here's how to interpret this Microsoft statement.
Microsoft, Windows 7, Windows Seven, Win7, Milestone

Joe Moody – Professor Emeritus of Biology
By Alex Kirkpatrick '18
Joe Moody, professor emeritus of biology, worked at Simpson from 1976 to 2002, and he never missed a single day of class in those 26 years.
Moody, a well-respected member of the Indianola community, is known for his teaching, but he also is a proud veteran.
He served during the Vietnam War as a commander of a 105mm howitzer battery.
He was on active duty from 1965-66, and then in the Army Reserves for five more years.
"I'm proud of my service because I believe in what this country stands for," Moody said.
In the military, he was a tactical officer in an Officer Candidate School, located in Fort Sill, Oklahoma, which is designed to train and mentor future officers.
His observation that teaching is synonymous with mentorship, however, began at New Mexico Military Institute. He was mentored by two professors who had worked on the Manhattan Project under theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer.
The Manhattan Project produced the first nuclear weapons during World War II.
It was in military school where Moody learned discipline: Wake up at 5:30 every morning; be punctual; dress in uniform; be organized, etc.
"They really wanted you to learn," he said.
Because his mentors were meticulous in their teaching, he wanted to return the favor when he became a teacher..
"I wanted people to learn," he said. "When people learn, their lives will be better off."
Moody earned his bachelor's degree in microbiology at the University of Nebraska and his Ph.D. in immunology at Montana State University.
He says teaching is personal.
"If I don't know you as a person," Moody said," I wasn't doing my job as a teacher."
In the military, he learned about the 246 people in his battery; in the classroom, he learned about the students, and then some.
His connection with students extends beyond retirement.
Moody, now 74, recently broke his leg riding a Segway on the sand dunes in Texas.
Due to health complications, he visits many doctors, some of whom were former students.
While visiting a gastroenterologist, a former student walked in with a garden hose.
"He told me, 'Remember that first question on the second immunology test? I'm going to get even with you,'" Moody recalls.
Reflecting back on his career, Moody says his best advice is to "never shoot for mediocrity because you'll hit it every time."
Faith is an integral part of his life, and he says fighting for a belief will lead to a plentiful life.
Since retiring, Moody has kept himself busy.
He's on the executive board of the local American Legion, shoots competitively, collects rifles, is active in the First United Methodist church and spends his winters on South Padre Island in Texas.

A fundraiser is scheduled for Friday to benefit Kinsley Wong, the extreme sportsman injured in a kiteboarding crash off San Simeon in July.
Zorro's Café and Cantina in Pismo Beach will donate a portion of its sales from 7:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. to Wong and his family. The restaurant is located at 927 Shell Beach Road in Pismo Beach.
Wong, 43, was apparently was pulled out of the water by a gust of wind and dropped on the rocks July 15.
In kiteboarding, a person is strapped onto a board and is harnessed to a huge kite. The kiteboarder uses wind to propel himself across the sea.
A 2006 feature article in The Tribune said, "(Wong) is known as the father of kiteboarding on the Central Coast by area kiteboarders." He said he and a friend were the first to kiteboard on the Central Coast in October 1998.

REDWOOD VALLEY - Yellow daffodils are poking up from the blackened landscape in Mendocino County's Redwood Valley nearly five months after a deadly wildfire raged through the bucolic hamlet, killing nine people, destroying a third of the homes and causing $170 million in damage.
New RVs sit atop freshly graded lots and property owners are hard at work, removing charred trees and erecting new fences in preparation for construction projects.
County officials have issued 16 building permits, and the first projects are expected to break ground soon after the end of winter rains.
Shock from the worst disaster ever to befall the tight-knit community has given way to pangs of loss, but also optimism and a sense of purpose. Residents are hopeful it will come back like a hearty perennial.
"There's a lot left to do but we are on our way," Dan Hamburg, chairman of the Board of Supervisors, told residents at a recent town hall meeting. "Slowly, things are starting to get better."
But recovery has many obstacles and it's unclear how many of the town's 1,700 inhabitants will return.
Although federal contractors have cleared debris from 90 percent of properties for government cleanup, the ruins of Tim and Kate Roemer's house remain untouched because steep terrain is preventing access by heavy equipment. Contractors balked after taking one look at it.
He's relocated indefinitely to his mother-in-law's house in Ukiah.
"It turns out, they didn't want to do the hard stuff," said Roemer, a 72-year-old retired nurse as he poked through the ruins of his two-story house. "They say we're access-challenged."
Other property owners say too much ground has been removed from their land, requiring them to pay thousands of dollars to fill it in.
Monterey Road resident John Holder said the expense comes on top of hundreds he's spent for county-required compaction reports and a building permit. It is a frustrating situation that is prompting more of his neighbors to put up for-sale signs than new houses, he said.
"It's just getting out of hand," said Holder, 69, a retired roofer, who lives in an RV on his land. "I'm tired of fighting with them. They are not helping us like they said."
And questions remain about the future of the water supply system serving more than 180 homes in the hardest-hit north end of the valley. Officials say a bigger, better water main is necessary to provide more capacity for new hydrants and state-mandated fire sprinklers. The cost is estimated at $9 million.
Until it's installed, many of the homes can't be rebuilt.
"This is a really critical project for the restoration of Redwood Valley," Hamburg said.
Despite the challenges, the once-verdant valley that is home to grape growers and urban and suburban refugees has come a long way since the historic fire. Early Oct. 9, flames raced over the hills from neighboring Potter Valley, forcing a massive evacuation and surprising many who were asleep in their homes.
Like emergency officials in Sonoma County, Mendocino County chose not to send wireless alerts, relying instead on a series of calls to landlines starting at 1:47 a.m., Sheriff's Capt. Greg Van Patten said.
Nine people were killed including Kressa Shepherd, 17, and her 14-year-old brother, Kai, who along with their parents tried to outrun the blaze as it approached their driveway. Others died trapped in cars or garages while trying to flee or waiting to be rescued.

Hello from Kyoto!
It has been pretty warm at daytime around 25℃ though I know winter is coming quite soon.
The other day, I got some days off and went to Tokyo with my co-worker Shizuka.
Our plan for Tokyo was going to Shin-Okubo (little korean town).
It is getting popular for middle aged women about Korean dramas and idols as like my mom.
Unfortunately, I'm not much into the idols though I do love Korean food.
That is fabulous for sure ! I love Higashi kujo(little korea) which is in J-Hoppers Kyoto as well.
Most of my firends are in Tokyo, then we did a kind of small reunion at one of Korean restaurant. It was so much fun with talking about resent life and girls stuff.
