Each drawer contains a range of specimens. Some of the drawers I have catalogued contained wading birds, common British garden birds, birds of prey to exotic colourful birds that have beautifully vibrant plumage.
I was fortunate to get a drawer of hummingbird specimens, which, from the perspective of a recent Fine Art graduate, were the most stunning.
The Greenish Puffleg (Haplophaedia aureliae) originates from the humid climate of South America. Its name refers to the pure white down feather tufts found on the legs of both the male and females, like little white trousers. The image shows one a little worse for wear from our collection.
I have been very lucky to be involved in this project and I'm looking forward to discovering the next exciting drawer. Why don't you come along on one of the next Behind the Scenes tours to take a look for yourself?

Year Opened: 1927
| Field Surface: Natural Grass
Built in 1927 for the oldest public university in Texas, Kyle Field has been one of the more intimidating places for visiting teams, especially during Texas A&M's decade of dominance in the 1990s. During that span the Aggies compiled a laundry list of disgruntled visitors as they earned a 55-4-1 record. Texas A&M won 31-straight games from 1990-95 -- the fifth-longest home winning streak since World War II -- then another 22 in a row from 1996-2000.
The stadium's name is derived from Edwin Jackson Kyle, who served as the university's Dean of Agriculture and Athletic Council president.
As with many collegiate stadiums that uses the same foundation of its origin, Kyle Field has seen some expansions and now accommodates more than 82,000 of the most avid fans into its hallowed seats. On Nov. 20, 2010, a record crowd of 90,079 gathered to watch the 18th-ranked Aggies dispatch No. 9 Nebraska, 9-6.
The home of the 12th Man is in College Station, Texas, a tradition that was born a day into the new year of 1922, when, on Jan. 2, an underdog Texas A&M squad was battling top-ranked Centre College. A brutally tough game, the Aggies were digging deep into their roster of reserves when coach Dana Bible remembered there was perhaps one more person who could help.
A young man by the name of E. King Gill was a former football player who was now solely playing basketball. He was in the press box helping reporters identify players when he literally got "the call" to come down from the stands and suit up. Gill, being the consummate team player, left his post in the press box, suited up and stood ready for action should he be needed.
The Aggies ended up winning the game 22-14 and even though Gill was never used it created the idea of the 12th Man in College Station. He displayed the identity of what the 12th Man means today: a spirit of readiness for service, desire to support and enthusiasm. Now the student body stands throughout the entire game, ready to be called upon should they be needed in service to their team. Gill has a statue of his likeness, suited up and at the ready in case he is called.
In the 1980s, coach Jackie Sherrill started the 12th Man Kickoff Team, composed of regular students selected through open tryouts. Coach R.C. Slocum later changed that tradition, which continues now, to allow just one representative of the 12th Man on the kickoff team.

A friend told me today that her pool service came and closed her pool for the winter but forgot to turn off the electric. She tells me that the pump and system ran "dry" for about 12 hours before they realized what was happening. It runs on a timer. She heard a loud noise and found the pump running and the lights on her SWG flashing.
What kind of damage do you suppose has occurred?

Taking a Closer Look at Gender at Western Coeducational Land-Grant Colleges
In Bright Epoch, Andrea G. Radke-Moss explores the gender dynamics, intellectual life, and social atmosphere at several coeducational western land-grant colleges in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century United States.[1] Radke-Moss argues that these institutions provided a setting where women could push the boundaries of their gender roles. In education, extracurricular activities, politics, and social life, "women succeeded in negotiating new spaces of gendered inclusion and equality" (p. 2).
Radke-Moss's subject matter and opinions of coeducation make this work a unique undertaking. In choosing to analyze gender at land-grant institutions in the western United States, the author is studying a subject that has not previously gained much attention from leading scholars of women's higher education.[2] Moreover, she assumes that the opening of college doors to women was "inherently progressive for women," and asserts that the late nineteenth century was indeed a "bright epoch" for women's higher education at her chosen institutions (p. 12). She thus challenges other historians who have emphasized the preservation of traditional women's gender roles within coeducational colleges. Indeed, Radke-Moss stresses: "Unlike other historical studies of women and coeducation--most of which have typically focused on separation and segregation--this study is not looking for gender discrimination around every campus corner" (p. 12). Yet everything was not that easy or linearly progressive. There were continually "competing forces of separation and inclusion for women," even if some of the instances of separation appeared to be self-imposed (p. 12).
Many different topics in the history of education and gender are taken on in this three-hundred-page study of student life at Iowa Agricultural College (IAC), the University of Nebraska, Oregon Agricultural College, and Utah Agricultural College. In the first two chapters, Radke-Moss examines the discourse and practices of coeducation from the view of the administrators and the students. In the remaining six chapters, she describes the student experience in many different arenas: literary societies, social life, course work, athletics and physical training, campus military regiments, and women's rights activism. A short conclusion reviews some of the previous chapters and cites a drop in enrollment after 1900 and a reaction against women's higher education.
The historian uses a variety of sources, including student newspapers, diaries, school catalogues, organization files, and college directories, to construct the history of women's higher education. For the most part, Radke-Moss succeeds in illustrating the various ways that women were able to take advantage of educational and social opportunities, participate in new endeavors, and challenge some gender expectations of their time. The above sources enable her to do so. She also returns to the tension between separation and inclusion, which complicates many of her topics.
One chapter that illuminates the tension of separation and inclusion, or perhaps varying notions of female propriety, is the chapter on literary societies. College women were able to participate in societies alongside men or create their own clubs. Yet women's topics of debate were often limited, and even in mixed clubs, women might only debate other women. If the debates were between both sexes the topics were often altered to those that were deemed appropriate for women or mixed company. Nevertheless, hinting at an argument she develops later on, Radke-Moss writes that "through literary society debating activities, female land-grant students helped to negotiate a new culture of women's public political expression" (p. 91).
Another interesting example of women pushing gender boundaries was in their involvement in military drills. Women believed that they ought to be included in military drill, which was mandatory for their male counterparts under the Morrill Act of 1862, and petitioned for their own brigades. According to the author, "women students took their citizenship to a new level of inclusion and republican activity" through this practice (p. 225). These groups were particularly notable at IAC from the late 1870s into the late 1890s and for a shorter time at the University of Nebraska. Women from the Iowa brigade even participated at the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893, to the awe of some fairgoers. At IAC, the formation of military brigades was related to suffrage for the argument was often stated that women should not be enfranchised because they were not subject to military service. Yet these groups proved to be short-lived and dwindled by the declaration of the Spanish-American War, likely subsumed into departments of physical education, which was a different type of advance for women. Additionally, once World War I was declared in the United States, the college women tended to perform within traditional gender roles.
In seeking to illustrate the many benefits of early coeducation, Radke-Moss must contend with the fact that women were often receiving different education than men, taking mostly domestic science courses. This was indeed an "institutionalized form of gender separation" (p. 143). However, the pendulum swung both ways, and she finds many opportunities and benefits within this restricted education.[3] She frames home economics as a practical specialization that was created "in spite of criticism from elitist educators," contending that it "brought a new discourse that added professional legitimacy to women's housework" (pp. 144, 150-151). Additionally, women were able to enter academia as professors in domestic science, pushing the limitations on women's career goals. There were also some efforts to provide women with means to self-support through courses in millinery, hostelry management, and dressmaking. Another point that is often overlooked, Radke-Moss holds, is that women were able to take a variety of courses in mixed-sex classrooms before separating into their specializations. Thus, they were enrolled in biology, chemistry, botany, English, and business courses. Some women also chose other fields of specialization, such as law, commerce, and pharmacology.
In the last chapter, Radke-Moss ties women's educational advances to reform movements and ultimately, suffrage. One would assume that the political outlook might be bright because of general knowledge that western states granted women's suffrage rather early. However, the colleges under study were located in states that were among the last to grant suffrage.[4] Moreover, students did not actively take part in "formal activist groups in the traditional sense" (p. 288). Yet Radke-Moss argues that the students were, in fact, politically active through their editorials, speeches, and debates. Extracurricular activities also provided cooperation between the sexes and inclusion for women in speaking, voting, and some leadership roles. Thus, the author makes the claim: "Land-grant students practiced an active microcosm of democracy that showed the realistic possibility of an inclusive political culture supported by a vocal and intelligent female electorate" (p. 288).
Even as Radke-Moss returns to the main idea of inclusion and separation, people are likely to have different opinions about whether or not this was a "bright epoch" for women, whether domestic science offered advances for women, and whether the students really participated in "an active microcosm of democracy" (p. 288). At one point, the author seems to express the argument that the colleges offered women an "equal education." She describes Adonijah S. Welch, the president of IAC, to be an advocate of equal education, even as he supported different education for women that was severely limited. The author writes, "President Welch believed in equal education for women, but he also believed the course work for women should be specially adapted to women's particular roles in society and the home.... He was revolutionary in his demand for equal education" (pp. 25-26). Certainly, Welch's 1869 speech, which the author quotes, was a call for the inclusion of women in higher education but it was not to be on equal terms with men.
Radke-Moss offers a detailed view of women's lives at land-grant colleges in the western United States, adding new research in the field of the history of education. Along with Susan Rumsey Strong's work on Alfred University's coeducation practices, Thought Knows No Sex: Women's Rights at Alfred University (2008), Bright Epoch sheds light on less-trodden terrain in the history of women's higher education, shifting the emphasis away from private women's colleges in the eastern United States. Both books seek to illustrate that women had greater educational opportunities at coeducational institutions than has been formerly realized and that not all such institutions were inherently hostile to women. Radke-Moss also makes the effort to show that women in the western United States took the opportunity to pursue a high-quality postsecondary education and gained increased autonomy over their futures.
[1]. Land-grant colleges were created under the 1862 Morrill Act, which granted thirty thousand acres of federal land to each state. The land was to be sold, and the proceeds were to go toward creating public colleges that were to emphasize mechanical and agricultural education.
[2]. Among the leading books on women's experience in higher education are Barbara Miller Solomon, In the Company of Educated Women: A History of Women and Higher Education in America (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1985); and Lynn D. Gordon, Gender and Higher Education in the Progressive Era (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1990). They do not give extensive coverage of land-grant universities in the western United States.
[3]. For criticism of domestic science, see Jill Kerr Conway, "Perspectives on the History of Women's Education in the United States," History of Education Quarterly 14 (1974): 1-12.
[4]. The state of Utah was an exception, granting suffrage in 1896. However, Radke-Moss does not see a connection between early suffrage and women's education or rights in Utah. She says "that act had more to do with Mormon power structures and fears of federal government intrusion than women's education progress" (p. 275).

Ransacked plant apologizes for spill
Updated: 2011-09-21 07:52
(China Daily)
HAINING, Zhejiang - A solar panel maker targeted by violent protests over pollution from one of its factories in East China has apologized and promised to do whatever it takes to clean it up.
Jinko Solar Holdings, parent company of the plant, said in a statement on Sept 19 that initial tests showed pollutants may have spilled into a nearby river due to "improper storage of waste".
Police detained 31 people after hundreds of villagers protested last week in Haining, Zhejiang province. Some stormed the factory compound and overturned vehicles.
Authorities said the plant had failed to address earlier environmental complaints and that the protests followed a large number of fish deaths in late August due to runoff from heavy rains.
Jinko Solar, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, said production in Haining has been suspended, but will likely resume within a few days.
"The company will take all necessary steps to ensure that it is in compliance with all environmental rules and regulations. Any deficiencies in environmental protection uncovered will be immediately remedied," it said in a statement, Associated Press reported.
As well as 31 protesters being detained, authorities say another 100 will be given "legal re-education", which usually involves giving minor offenders classes about China's legal system.
The people detained severely disrupted social order, said Shen Xianghong, spokesman for Haining government.
Residents close to the Jinko Solar plant, meanwhile, say they voiced concerns about pollution half a year ago, to no avail.
An elderly man who has lived in the area his whole life said the air smelled bad and locals had no idea whether it was harmful to their health.
The incident came just over a month after authorities in Dalian, Liaoning province, agreed to relocate a chemical plant after similar protests, underscoring official concern over mounting public anger about pollution.
"Citizens, particularly a rising middle class, have become more aware about how deep the impact of environmental issues is to their health," said Phelim Kine, senior Asia researcher for Human Rights Watch. "They are no longer willing to take it passively."
Protests against pollution are not new to China, as breakneck economic growth over the past three decades has caused severe degradation of air, land and water quality.
The growth of social networking, in particular micro blogs like Sina Weibo, has helped spread the word about environmental issues and mobilize protests against perceived polluters.
Zhang Zhi'an, a communications professor at Zhongshan University in Guangdong province, said micro blogs helped give a voice to people with grievances. "They play an important role in gathering public opinion, which has helped vulnerable groups," he said.
China has the world's largest online population with almost 500 million users.
A blogger living near the site of a deadly high-speed train crash in Zhejiang in July is widely believed to have broken news of the accident.

How to Get Easy Approval on Poor Credit Used Car Loans?
Smart auto buyers shop for used cars. It is because their value doesn't depreciate quickly. Don't think used vehicles have passed their sell-by date. Many used cars that are available in the market are in a really good condition. And, with the introduction of certified pre-owned cars, used cars are as good as brand new cars.
Buying a used car becomes all the more important if you have poor credit history. Lenders often deny new car loan applications of poor credit auto buyers. But, as a used is cheaper, they don't have much problem in offering Poor credit used car loans.
Most poor credit car buyers worry about getting approval on car financing program. If you are feeling jittery about your car loan request, don't worry. This article has been written specially for poor credit auto buyers who are interested in used car loans. Understand what factors will get you stress-free approval and fulfill your car dream easily. Let's begin.
Boring but Beneficial
There are few things which are crucial for getting approval on used car loans. Even though they may seem dull and uninteresting, these factors ensure trouble-free approval process.
A. Budget
The most boring thing about every financing deal is the numbers. Most people avoid everything related to numbers and just apply for a car loan program. This is hazardous for a poor credit car buyer because you can end up with a bad deal. So, you must calculate your budget. You must ascertain a monthly payment amount which would be easy for you. Also, decide on a down payment amount. It may seem a mundane task but it will definitely help you in choosing a poor credit auto loan program that's comfortable for you.
B. Crsedit Score
Even if most lenders and dealerships have informed you about your terrible credit score, you must find your current ratings. You will require your credit score while submitting the poor credit auto loan application form. Mentioning an incorrect credit score can lower your chances of approval. Also, there are chances that your credit score may have improved.
Make it a point to check your credit score before filling bad credit car loan application forms. You must also go through your credit report and work on removing errors from it.
C. Paperwork
Get together your documents. Most poor credit lenders want poor credit borrowers to have a regular income. They will ask for a proof of your income and employment. You can use your recent pay stubs for it. Also, Employment Verification Letter can be useful. Lenders want to know about payment behavior and that's why; you will have to present your recent Utility Bills.
D. Co-Signer
Co-signers are a blessing for poor credit car buyers. Lenders are always happy to see a co-signer because co-signing lowers the risk factor. So, ask someone to co-sign your car loan contract because it will ensure easy approval.
Begin the Application Process for Poor Credit Used Car Loans
Now that you have a clear idea about your financial position, begin the car loan process. Apply only with sub-prime lenders who are experienced in providing poor credit auto loans. You can use the online mode for getting a poor credit used car loan. Internet provides extreme ease in completing the auto financing process. You can apply with several lenders without leaving your home. Also, you will receive approval via phone call which means online car loans ensure 100% comfort.
When you receive auto loan quotes, compare it with your budget. Choose the quote that will ensure easy loan pay-off. Don't sign the auto financing program without understanding each and every term of it. Avoid car loan contracts with exorbitant fees and penalties.
Choosing the Car
Car selection should be in the end. This is because your lender may ask you to choose a car from a specific dealer only. So don't choose a car before getting approved for such auto financing program.
While choosing the pre-owned automobile, ensure that it doesn't have a Salvage Title. Check the Vehicle History Report and invite your trusted mechanic to inspect the car. Remember that most States don't have a two-day cooling period on the sale of automobiles. This means you will have to keep the car even if it has problems. So, choose properly.
If you follow the tips mentioned in this article, you will be able to make an easy car purchase. Also, it will help you to make payment much more affordable. So, remember them and ensure a trouble-free used car shopping!

Oregon Lemon Law – Get Definite Answer to All Your Queries
America is all about speed. Our fast lives and faster cars are a manifestation of our culture. Well, cars have been an important part of this great nation. It is the best way to explore the world-famous cities of America. When it comes to the Beaver State, roads are definitely the most accessible option. Cruising on I-5, you can travel to the state of California. Several State Highways also allow efficient road travel within Oregon.
Many Oregonians have spent their life-savings to get their prefect cars. But, this dream shatters when your car is more in the garage than on the road. Your car dream is brutally mortified when you discover that your car is a lemon.
You can re-live your dream with the help of Oregon Lemon Law which was passed in 1983. This law gives you the right to get a new vehicle or a refund of your car. It has become stronger after the 2009 amendment.
Before you go to the dealer and ask for a refund/replacement, let's understand the State Lemon Law in detail.
In order to claim under "Lemon Law", you must fulfill the following four requirements:
1) Your car must be purchased on or after January 1, 1984. Initially the law covered only those vehicles which were purchased in Oregon. However, things have changed now.
2) It doesn't matter if you are the original owner or a subsequent one, it is important that you purchased the car during express warranty period.
3) Your car must be a "lemon". The Oregon Lemon Law considers it lemon if your car fulfills any of the below mentioned criteria -
i) The manufacturer, its agents, its authorized dealers were unable to repair the same defect even after three attempts.
ii) The car is being repaired for more than 30 days.
iii) There is a serious non-conformity which can cause death or grave injuries to the passengers.
You must understand that the law will not cover any problem if it's related to abuse or neglect of the car. You won't be covered under the law if you carried out some unauthorized alterations.
It is also essential that you notify the problem to the manufacturer within two years or 24,000 miles of purchase (whichever comes first). Before the 2009 amendment, the limit was one year and 12,000 miles.
4) You are obligated to participate in a third-party arbitration program if the manufacturer notifies you about it. The court can award you thrice the amount of damages (not to exceed $ 50,000). This is possible only when the court agrees that the manufacturer acted in bad faith during the arbitration.
If you meet the criteria, you will get a replacement or refund. It will be decided by the manufacturer. The refund will cover the full purchase price including collateral charges such as taxes, registration fees, loan charges, pre-payment penalties and cost of few dealer-installed products. However, he will deduct reasonable allowance for using the car.
How Can You Prove Your Case?
You must have a strong case to fight against the legal team of the manufacturer. Here are few tips to help you with it.
In order to have a fool-proof case, you need to have copies of the following:
i) Repair Invoices and Routine Maintenance Invoices
ii) Purchase Contract
iii) Title
iv) Registration Document
Words Stay For Ever
It is essential that you maintain a logbook. Write down every single detail in it. Along with the repair and maintenance orders, keep a record of letters that you send to the manufacturer or dealer.
Mention every communication with accurate date, time, name and phone number of the person you spoke with.
Note every date and time when the car gave you problem. Also, write the dates when your car wasn't in a working condition or was in the repair shop. Don't forget to write the "mileage in" and "mileage out" when you send the car for repair.
The logbook will ensure that you remember everything and will be useful in proving your point to the manufacturer.
Precaution in the Beginning Means a Happy Ending
For New Cars
The State has enacted a strong law to protect your rights but a court case is often time-consuming. So, make sure you don't buy a lemon.
Whenever you set out to buy a new car, do a thorough research. Read articles on web. Car experts give reviews on all car models. By researching, you will know the pros and cons of the car.
You must also check the auto recall lists. If the vehicle model was recalled for a defect, there is no point in buying it.
For Used Cars
The Oldest Trick in the Book
Odometer tampering continues to be a major problem. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website mentions that more than 4,50,000 vehicles are sold each year with odometer rollbacks. It also stated that the false readings cost more than $1 billion dollars annually.
You can avoid the fraud by checking the vehicle's history. It will give you information about accidents, theft, previous owners, etc.
You must know that a car tire can run approx for 60,000 miles. So if the odometer reads 18,000 miles but the tires seem old and worn out, it's time to say good bye to that car. Also check the engine and car interiors. Service reminder stickers, warranty cards, etc. will give you an idea about the actual readings.
What Does The Title Say?
According to the 2009 amendment (SB 515), the DMV now requires the manufacturer to add "Lemon Law Buyback" to the title and vehicle record when he repurchases the car. This means you will know if the dealer is trying to sell a lemon.
Avoid Flood-Damaged Cars
Inspect the vehicle for flood damage. Check for dirt and rust in the trunk. Also, a flooded vehicle mostly has moisture in headlight and tail light assembly.
"As Is"
In an "as is" agreement, the dealer doesn't provide any warranty. All that you have is the manufacturer warranty, only if it hasn't expired. Buying an "as is" car means the dealer won't take responsibility if it ceases to work. Avoid such cars.
So, this is how you can save yourself from a lemon. If you have made a mistake of buying a lemon, take help of the Oregon State Lemon Law. If you are going to buy a car, make sure you stay away from the "sour" experience.
Be alert to truly enjoy the "sweetness" of driving your dream car!
When you buy a car, you try hard to save yourself from a "sour" experience. But, it can become "bitter" by highly unaffordable auto loans. Apply online on RapidCarLoans.Net for auto loans in Oregon and avail the most competitive car financing options. Apply and enjoy a "sweet" car buying experience.

From Racine, Wisconsin, USA:
My 4 year old son, if he could, would drink 24 hours a day. He has always drunk a lot, ever since birth. He was tested early, and we were told there were no signs of diabetes and that he just liked to drink. Well, we accepted that, and didn't think anything more about it. However, he was taken to the emergency room several times from the age of one to three because he was very lethargic. He was dehydrated, so they pumped him full of fluids, and sent him home. Hours later, he would be fine. He was never on any medication, and has been fine for close to two years. Now, he asks for drinks every half-hour, and when told "no" he doesn't need it", he cries, and will sneak it. either from the bathroom, or has even been caught drinking from the faucet of the water cooler in the kitchen. I kept track of how much he drank one weekend at his grandmother's. He finished almost a five gallon jug of water by himself. When asked why he wants another drink, he says " my brains not cold yet ". Now, I know that's probably just something a four year old would say. When he does drink, he drinks it straight down, never lasts more than thirty seconds.
He will be going back east next week, and will be checked out, but will we once again just be told " He just likes to drink ". I hope not. I hope for some answers.
I think that you should ask your doctor about the possibility that your son has a condition called diabetes insipidus. This may be due to an abnormality, often inherited, which leads to an inability to concentrate urine. In consequence, there is an exaggerated need for water. The fact that your son was apparently free of this problem for two years also suggests that he might instead have "psychogenic polydipsia" or "compulsive water drinking".
Simple tests of the specific gravity of the urine and of the concentration of plasma and urine (osmolality) can indicate the diagnosis, although the defining test rests with the ability to concentrate urine after a short, enforced thirst. More complicated tests are needed to tell the difference between the neurogenic and kidney based disorder. Treatment with drugs like Desmopressin may be very successful. I do not think that this story is at all suggestive of ordinary diabetes (diabetes mellitus).

Timmy and his father are watching Chet Ubetcha make a report on Brightburg, a neighboring city of Dimmsdale that has been voted "best place to live" yet again. The two are dressed in fishing gear and are eagerly awaiting the weather report. Chet hands the broadcast off to the weatherman, Stormy Raynes, who predicts that the weather will be sunny enough for fishing. Timmy and his father cheer and run outside into the pouring rain, and are nearly struck by lightning before they realize the weatherman's prediction was wrong. They see Stormy Raynes being chased out of the city by an angry mob holding pitch forks and torches. The next day, the same thing happens when Timmy and his father listen to a weather report from the new weather reporter, Johnny Downpour. When they run outside, there is a blizzard and Timmy and Mr. Turner are turned into ice cubes. While frozen, they see the new weatherman being chased out of town by the same angry mob. Mr. Turner wants to partake but he has to wait until he thaws out.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Turner has been completely ignored this whole time her husband and son, who were more concerned with the weather and fishing than her winning the Miss Dimmsdale contest, winning a bake contest, and winning all sorts of awards which Timmy and Mr. Turner completely ignored or destroyed when they were rushing to go fishing. Mrs. Turner decided to enter a contest to become the next weatherman or woman, apparently she was the only one who entered the contest because on the television, Chet Ubetcha reads her name (as "Timmy Turner's mom") off of the very same entry paper she tore off a flier. Timmy and Mr. turner think only a man can tell weather. Mrs. Turner is excited, but Timmy is worried that his mother will get the weather wrong and chased out of town by an angry mob like the other weathermen. When she appears on TV for the first time, Mrs. Turner is visibly nervous and clumsily trashes the sound stage by tearing a gaping hole into the weather map and setting off the fire alarm. An angry mob begins to form outside the news building.
Realizing his mother is in trouble unless everything she said during her weather report comes true, Timmy wishes that everything his mother predicted about the weather was right. This causes it to become sunny for a brief moment, then a gaping hole appeared in the ground, and then it started to rain again, just like Timmy's mother accidentally predicted. This is enough to convince the mob to disperse, and within days, Mrs. Turner is becoming a well known television celebrity. Mrs. Turner rarely spends time at home anymore, and now Mr. Turner must act as a father AND mother figure to Timmy. He accomplishes this by using a sock-puppet resembling Timmy's mom, much to Timmy's horror and annoyance. At Channel 7 News, Mrs. Turner is so popular that they only give Chet Ubetcha a few seconds of air time and the remaining twenty nine minutes to the weather, causing Chet to become extremely jealous. Timmy comes to his Mom's work, and apologizes to her for ignoring her. Mrs. Turner realizes she has been ignoring her family for too long, and decides to make a really inaccurate and disastrous weather prediction in an attempt to get fired. Timmy must find a way to stop her, because no matter what prediction she made, it would come true!
Unfortunately, there is nothing Timmy can do to stop the weather predictions from coming true. Mrs. Turner predicts "hail the size of mini vans", the world's largest lightning storm, and a massive earthquake, and then tomorrow it will be good enough to go fishing. Storm clouds begin to form over Dimmsdale and Timmy realizes he must find another way to stop this wish. He wishes for a giant trampoline to appear over Dimmsdale, this deflects the mini-van sized hail chunks in the direction of Brightburg, destroying it. The giant lightning storm is neutralized by Cosmo while he was asking what to do, and the lightning struck his wand all at once, zapping him and turning him into a pile of ash. But now the earthquake is tearing the ground apart. Timmy sees his father running with a piece of broccoli suspended in a gelatin mold held by the mom puppet. The puppet then gives Timmy the gelatin. Timmy realizes that the object in the gelatin stays still no matter how much it jiggles. Timmy wishes the entire city was encased in a gelatin mold, which absorbs the shocks of the earthquake and causes the cracks in the earth to divert in the direction of Brightburg, finishing off the neighboring city. Nobody care however not even Chet Ubetcha who is happy that he is number one on the news again. Afterward, Timmy and his mother enjoy a relaxing fishing trip while the angry mob chases Mr. Turner's puppet of Timmy's Mom.

Chinese Military Hospital in Lockdown Over Suspected SARS Cases
By Ming Chen
Epoch Times Staff
A Hong Kong newspaper has reported that several hundred soldiers with high fevers and other SARS-like symptoms are allegedly being kept in isolation wards at a military hospital in Boading City in northeastern China's Hebei Province. Local authorities have denied a SARS outbreak, but Chinese netizens are worried that, just as with the 2003 outbreak of SARS, the authorities are covering up a potential epidemic.
Reporters from Hong Kong's Apple Daily went to the PLA 252 Hospital in Baoding on Feb. 24, where 300 soldiers are allegedly being isolated, with two said to have died. Three nearby hospitals were said to also have patients who exhibit SARS-like symptoms.
Mar 6, 2012 (CIDRAP News) – Maryland health officials are investigating a cluster of severe respiratory illnesses in a Calvert County family that led to the deaths of an elderly woman and two adult children who cared for her.

Obama, Romney clash on foreign policy; polls show Obama wins
In the last of the three high-stake 90-minute debates ahead of November 6 elections, President Obama was the aggressor from the start of the encounter which provided both the candidates a last chance to appeal to millions of voters in what appears to be a neck-and-neck race to the White House.
According to a CNN snap poll, Obama won the final presidential debate; and same was the case for other opinion polls including that of CBS news. While 48 per cent voted for Obama and 40 per cent supported Romney in the CNN poll.
On the broader concept of the US foreign policy during the debate, both Obama and Romney agreed that the US should not allow Iran to go nuclear, would support Israel in case of attack, the 2014 withdrawal time line from Afghanistan, and the need to take stronger action against China. However, they exchanged jabs on the size of the US military, and the current situation in the Middle East ? Libya and Syria in particular.
To the surprise of many Benghazi where a terrorist attack on the US Consulate was not mentioned even a once during the debate; which appeared prominently in the previous debate.
India, the relationship with which there is a bipartisan support in the US, did not figure even once during the prime-time foreign policy debate which was moderated by the Bob Schieffer, host of "Face the Nation" on CBS.
For the first time probably the US President went public to explain why he did not seek Pakistan's permission to send his commando to Abbottabad to kill Osama bin Laden. Had he taken such a call, bin laden would have never been killed, 51-year-old Obama said.
On his part, 65-year-old Romney argued for conditional aid to Pakistan, but was against any move to cut off its relationship with an unstable country that has more than a 100 nuclear weapons which is home to terrorists as well.

|Scaling properties at the interface between different critical subsystems: The Ashkin-Teller model
|Lajko P., Turban L. and Iglói F.
|Phys. Rev. B 76 (2007) 224423
|DOI : 10.1103/PhysRevB.76.224423
|ArXiv : arxiv:0709.1322 [PDF]
|HAL : hal-00421967
We consider two critical semi-infinite subsystems with different critical exponents and couple them through their surfaces. The critical behavior at the interface, influenced by the critical fluctuations of the two subsystems, can be quite rich. In order to examine the various possibilities, we study a system composed of two coupled Ashkin-Teller models with different four-spin couplings $\epsilon$, on the two sides of the junction. By varying $\epsilon$, some bulk and surface critical exponents of the two subsystems are continuously modified, which in turn changes the interface critical behavior. In particular we study the marginal situation, for which magnetic critical exponents at the interface vary continuously with the strength of the interaction parameter. The behavior expected from scaling arguments is checked by DMRG calculations.

536 New South Head Road, Double Bay NSW 2028
Parsley Road (Horler Avenue), Vaucluse
Parsley Bay Reserve is a popular family park, that includes an enclosed swimming area, picnic facilities and children's playground.
There is also a short bushland circuit (15-20 minutes return), that takes you to a waterfall at the head of the gully. In summer, Eastern Water Dragons can be seen sunning along the watercourse.
This park is a popular venue for birthday parties, school picnics and social gatherings.
There are two popular versions of the origin of the name. One, that a hermit called 'Parsley' lived in early years in one of the caves at the head of the bay, the other is traditional and was probably used by the first exploratory parties (1788) to refer to an edible plant growing there, closely resembling parsley, which was used as an anti-scorbutic (scurvy) by the vitamin starved First Fleeters. The Bay was set aside for public recreation use in 1907 - it is one of Woollahra's best kept secrets. More on the history of Parsley Bay Reserve (PDF)
Watch a short documentary on Parsley Bay funded through the Community and Cultural Grants Program. This documentary was produced by a group of Woollahra residents during a Documentary Filmmaking Workshop for Seniors, run by Metro Screen.

Pangea Organics
Pangea Organics products are wrapped in some hip packaging, but luckily their mixtures of organic ingredients ring true. Pangea uses a cold-processed method to refine its organic coconut, organic olive, organic soy, and organic hemp oils. One of the benefits of the cold processed method is that the integrity of the organic oils is not compromised. Soaps made without the cold-processed method sacrifice the natural formation of glycerin and essential ingredients of the oils. [Note: This post may have highest occurrence of the word "organic" to date]. :: Pangea Organics

It's looking more likely that some amenities will be added back into the massive Tri-Cities Airport remodel project.
So far, subcontractors' bids have been favorable, Port of Pasco commissioners were told Thursday.
Bouten Construction Co., the port's general contractor/construction manager for the $43.7 million terminal remodel project, and David Robison of Strategic Construction Management were expected to open the last of the 28 subcontract bids Thursday, said Buck Taft, the airport's deputy director.
"We have seen significant savings so far," he said.
For example, he said, good bids have been received for the electrical and mechanical work, flooring and a glass wall in the new concourse that will allow passengers to look out on the airfield.
The remodel will double the size of the terminal and include moving the staircase, elevator and restrooms to the front of the terminal to open up the area near the security checkpoint. The ticketing and baggage areas will expand and a new concourse will be built beyond the security area with gates to the right and left.
Adding space to Gate 5 in the new concourse, renovating the second-floor restrooms and corridor, adding new in-bound baggage equipment and improvements to the short-term parking lot are among alternate work that companies were asked to bid on.
Overall construction costs, not including the alternates, are limited to $31.7 million under the contract port commissioners approved with Bouten Construction. Bouten Construction is responsible for any cost overruns.
Contractor's fees, architecture and engineering fees, furniture and fixtures and potential contingency costs will account for the other $12 million in costs.
Port commissioners are to meet Wednesday to approve selling bonds for the project. Cost of the subcontracts will determine the amount of the bond and which, if any, alternates to include.
Port commissioners have discussed bonding about $27.4 million, but it looks like the port will be able to sell a lower amount and still include the alternates.
The port will repay the bond debt using airport revenues only, but the port is including nonairport revenues as well so the bond rating is better. That can mean a lower interest rate, said Randy Hayden, port executive director.
Most of the debt will be paid using passenger facility charges from airline tickets, but other airport revenues also will be used. Construction is expected to begin in August.

July Parent/Child Accountability Report

Hi! Forgive me if the answer to this is somewhere else on the blog. I have hunted around, but still feel at a loss. My daughter is 12 weeks old now. We have attempted to get her on a schedule from the beginning. It has been going reasonably well...eating every three hours. A two weeks ago she STTN for a week straight for the first time (following first round of vaccines). I was pumped! Since that time, however, she has been completely random. Sometimes she wakes at 2 AM, sometimes 4 AM, sometimes 6:00/6:30 (trying to reach a waketime of 7 or 7:30. She naps very inconsistently as well. Some days, she will go down easy and sleep for 2 hours and other days, it's a struggle to get her to nap for more than an hour at a time. I believe that I am being very consistent. We keep the same waketime and bedtime, regardless of the nap or nighttime sleep situation. We try to stick as closely as possible to the three hour schedule (in terms of hunger cues, she does fine on a three hour schedule). and include a dreamfeed (although she never eats much at this feed). At night, I have tried to get her closer to the 7 AM waketime by giving her a pacifier, rocking her back to sleep, allowing her to cry, etc. I feel that she is genuinely hungry when she wakes at night due to the randomness of the waketimes. At this point, I just feel at a complete loss. I can't understand why she STTN for a week, but now can't seem to do it. I think she had a growth spurt about a week ago, but is out of that now. I was hoping things would settle back into a normal routine, but she has just seemed all the more inconsistent. Any thoughts would be so appreciated! I contemplated going to a 2.5 hour routine in hopes of getting one more day feed into her schedule, but I'm afraid this might interfere with her naps AND I'm not sure that she even needs this because she does fine in between 3 hour feeds. I'm also about to go back to work, so I worry about trying something new at this point. Thanks in advance for your help!
