Rural transportation networks need to meet the needs of the communities and economies they service, providing people with mobility and access to markets and opportunities.
It is now more widely accepted that while rural access and feeder roads of a high quality are critical, a combination of policies and other measures is also needed to reduce any access or mobility constraints in rural areas. Taking a more strategic approach can maximise the contribution made by rural transportation networks to communities and economies.
Aurecon offers a broad range of services related to the planning, design and delivery of sustainable transportation systems and infrastructure to clients throughout the developing world. As a professional services partner, we work closely with our clients and stakeholders throughout the entire projects life cycle, from pre-feasibility and business case preparation through to the operation and maintenance phases.
Aurecon has successfully completed several rural transport projects for governments and local bodies from a rural transport survey for South Africa, through to development of rural transport strategies and master plans in South Africa, Namibia and Zambia. In addition, we have carried out transport feasibility studies in many African countries.
We specialise in the following:

Working Groups
IETF Working Groups (WGs) are the primary mechanism for development of IETF specifications and guidelines, many of which are intended to be standards or recommendations.
Working Groups are typically created to address a specific problem or to produce one or more specific deliverables (a guideline, standards specification, etc.). Working Groups are generally expected to be short-lived in nature. Upon completion of its goals and achievement of its objectives, the Working Group is terminated. Each Working Group has a charter. WG charters state the scope of work for group, and lay out goals and milestones that show how this work will be completed.
Get Involved
Working Groups conduct much of their work over email lists. All WG email lists are open subscription and posting, although most lists moderate posts from non-subscribers. To get involved with a working group, subscribe to the working group's email list.
Working Group Chairs
Working Groups also have one or more Chairs (usually two) to perform the administrative functions of the group. Chairs are appointed by the responsible Area Directors and serve at their discretion.
Working Group Formation
Before a working group is formed, an Area Director may require that the parties interested in forming the working group schedule a Birds of a Feather (BOF) session at an IETF meeting in order to gauge the level of support for the proposed working group.

HAZELNUT ALMOND STICKS (Adapted from Woman's Weekly Cookbooks "The Big Book of Beautiful Biscuits" 1982)
3 egg whites
3/4 cup caster sugar
1 cup ground hazelnuts
1 cup ground almonds
1/4 cup plain flour
150g dark chocolate, chopped
1 tbsp. butter, melted
Beat egg whites in a medium dry bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating well so that the sugar dissolves between additions. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and stir in the nuts and sifted flour. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a 1.5cm plain tube. Pipe 8cm lengths, about 4cm apart, on lined oven trays. Bake at 160C for about 15 minutes or until dry to touch.Cool on wire racks.
Place melted chocolate and butter together in a small bowl, and stir until incorporated.. Dip the ends of the sticks in the chocolate mixture and drizzle the ends with two stripes of chocolate. Leave to dry before serving. .
NOTES: you can use 30g copha instead of butter if preferred. Also, these sticks are best eaten a few days after making, as the flavour becomes richer and the biscuits become a little softer.

ST. LOUIS (AP) Danny Amendola, the St. Louis Rams' leading receiver, was back on the field for the second half after injuring his right foot right before the break.
The team had said Amendola's return was questionable. He left the field in the final minute of the first half after a Jets player rolled onto his leg on an incomplete pass.
Jets backup cornerback Aaron Berry injured a quadriceps muscle in the third quarter and the team said his return was questionable. Defensive tackle Kenrick Ellis injured his left knee in the first quarter and team said in the third quarter that his return was questionable.
Amendola entered with 43 receptions and caught his fifth pass of the game on a 9-yarder for a first down on the Rams' first possession of the second half. He started for the second straight week after missing three games with a collarbone injury.
Rams backup linebacker Mario Haggan injured his right elbow early in the first quarter and the team said shortly after halftime that he would not return.
A Jets player landed on Haggan at the end of a 1-yard carry by backup quarterback Tim Tebow out of the wildcat formation on the third play of the game. After walking off the field, Haggan flung his helmet to the turf before leaving with medical personnel for testing.
Haggan has played in seven games with 10 tackles and one sack.

To listen to this post, please click here:A Cherished Mistake
In my late twenties, I heard a recording of an early American Folk hymn, "God Is Seen." (You can hear it performed here on YouTube by the Ohio University Chorus.) It so strongly moved me that I went to an artists' colony to illustrate it.
I prepared for a month–studying visual literacy and the color wheel, carefully planning and sketching twelve 16' x 20 " images. At last I mixed my watercolors and joyfully, confidently painted all twelve on luscious Arches paper. The final touch I planned was to apply narrow outlines using a pinpoint nib and India ink.
If you know the delicate crowquill nib, the toothy surface of French coldpress watercolor paper and the ineradicability of India ink, you know a perfect collision was waiting to happen.
It didn't have long to wait. The moment I put pen to the first painting, shocking black spattered all over it, spoiling the image.
I was overcome, I was nauseous, I wept. No undoing these black blotches. The splatter was too extensive, the ink intractable. I was crushed. More than one painting was ruined–eleven others had to coordinate with it. A month of work wasted! I was furious. I felt punished. This was a book about God, for God's sake!
I finally calmed down enough to hear my only solution: "Pretend you meant to do it."
I grabbed my toothbrush, the ink and the pen, practiced spattering on scrap to see possible effects. Then I intentionally spattered all twelve. Suddenly the paintings were dynamic, their texture and energy newly alive.
If I could have hit "delete" at the first spatter, would I? You bet your sweet art I would have. But this visceral experience taught me lifelong respect for the spontaneous in art and in life. While I love our world of deleting with so much easily erased or rearranged, there are rich lessons in things we can't undo, in discovering how to abide, appreciate or even cherish them.
Is there a mistake you cherish?

The Genetics of Chicken Colours by Sigrid van Dort -
The how and why of chicken genetics has long been a mystery to many of us amateur chicken breeders, and books on the genetics of chicken colours are few and far between. The book 'The Genetics of Chicken Colours The Basics' is therefore a very welcome addition to this field.
The book is written by Dutch amateur geneticist and chicken breeder Sigrid van Dort with the help of her friends and is intended for amateur chicken breeders who lack a formal background in genetics. Sigrid's co-
One of the first things one notices about the book is the large number of photo illustrations.
The author's claim that the book consists of about 2/3 illustrations and 1/3 text
appears correct. The numerous illustrations of both birds and individual feathers
make it easy to identify the more subtle differences in colours for example; different
types of barring may look similar when seen on a bird but are quite different when
individual feathers are compared.
The second aspect that stands out is the 'down to earth' style in which the book is written. The author introduces genetics by comparing chicken colours to vegetable or minestrone soup and uses this example throughout the book to highlight how genetics work. For example, similar to soup, the colour and appearance of chickens can be the result of a greater of lesser concentration of say tomato paste, while at other times a colour can be the result of a adding a completely new ingredient. By comparing the daunting topic of chicken genetics to an everyday item such as soup the author demystifies the topic and makes it, excuse the pun, easy to digest.
The book explains in simple terms how genetics create certain colours and the factors that influence the way colours are inherited. The author also discusses how different genetic factors combine to create colours and provides numerous examples of the results of particular crosses. The book includes special sections on topics such as: the red colour of the Yokohama breed, feather patterns, and has exercises for readers to test their understanding of chicken genetics.
About a quarter of the book's more than 200 pages describe in words and through photos of both hens and roosters the wide range of standardised colours and the genetic 'recipes' that are responsible for their occurrence.
In light of the easy to read style and the ability of the author to explain complex material in an easy to understand manner I hope she will also expand or write a further book on chicken genetics covering aspect such as crests, beards and leg feathering and the differences that can be found in Frizzles and Silkies.
I expect that this book will be well received by Australia's amateur chicken breeders and fanciers, and commend the author on presenting the topic in such an easy to understand manner.
About the reviewer, Erik Berrevoets has bred and kept chickens off and on for the last 30 years and his knowledge of genetics prior to reading the book did not exceed that of a year 12 biology student.

Shelby Lynne Pays Tribute to Johnny Cash With 'Why Me Lord?' – Video Premiere
Several country music legends came to the set of 'Austin City Limits' in April to pay tribute to one man: Johnny Cash. The Man in Black would have celebrated his 80th birthday this year, and stars like Shelby Lynne, Willie Nelson, Jamey Johnson, Ronnie Dunn and Kris Kristofferson couldn't let the day pass without a party.
This video of Lynne performing Cash's 'Why Me Lord?' was recorded at the event, and on August 7, will be available on CD and DVD with the rest of the performances. Taste of Country has your exclusive preview of this rendition from 'Walk the Line: A Celebration of the Music of Johnny Cash.'
As previously reported, Legacy Recordings is set to release the CD/DVD of the all-star concert in Austin, Texas. Lynne's 'Why Me Lord?' was undoubtedly one of the evening's highlights, though she also did a duet of 'It Ain't Me Babe' with Train singer Pat Monahan while onstage.
Matthew McConaughey hosted the Johnny Cash tribute event (read our review here), and additional appearances were made by Sheryl Crow, Shooter Jennings and Lucinda Williams. The show took place on April 20, 2012 at the Moody Theatre and paid tribute to Cash's music, roots and legacy.
Cash died in 2003 at the age of 71.

Evaluating Primary Source Web Sites: Examples
From Revolution to Reconstruction
This website, dedicated to the presidents of the United States and complete with the inaugural addresses, was compiled by the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. The content is from a website at Columbia University - http://odur.let.rug.nl/~usa/P/title.htm . Document sites can be second and third generations removed, like a manuscript that has been copied and re-copied several times over, increasing the possibility that small mistakes will appear.
- Metasites
Or, you may find a metasite with links to external documents. The Internet Archive of Texts and Documents provided by the History Department at Hanover College, links to many sources created by the Hanover Historical Texts Project. Some of the material, however, was not created internally. The section on China links only to external documents, identified by creating institution in parentheses. Each of these documents should be analyzed on its individual merits, not the merits of the History Department at Hanover College.
Examples of good citations:
- Online Medieval and Classical Library The Chronicle of the Kings of Norway clearly cites "Originally written in Old Norse, app. 1225 A.D., by the poet and historian Snorri Sturluson. English translation by Samuel Laing (London, 1844)."
- The Avalon Project Letter from Commander in Chief of Allied Forces to Head of Italian Government; September 29, 1943 clearly cites "Source: Treaties and Other International Agreements of the United States of America 1776-1949.

The chaos of the modern workday creates constant pressure to multitask. We respond to emails during meetings, hold conference calls while driving, and reply to a constant inbound stream of messages while dealing with our workload. From email and chat notifications to the siren song of social media, there is always somewhere else for our minds to wander.
At first glance, this might seem like a good thing. Multitasking makes it possible to kill two birds with one stone, right? You discuss marketing strategy and catch up on your email at the same time. However, research now shows that multitasking is a serious drain on productivity. Rather than doing two things at once, it causes us to do two things badly, and perhaps create more work for ourselves down the road.
In today's fast-moving, always-on office environment, employees and managers alike have to understand the high cost of multitasking. Shifting between tasks can cost as much as 40 percent of someone's productive time. That is a massive sum, and one that can't be ignored. In this slideshow, Andrew Filev, CEO of Wrike, delves deeper into the havoc multitasking can wreak on productivity and what you can do about it.

Hi Everyone!
I noticed a small mention made in the Chicago Genealogist, the newsletter of the Chicago Genealogy Society, of a web site that provided online access to images and the online ability to search a book that has been digitized by the Allen County Public Library of Fort Wayne, Indiana.
The book basically lists all of the pre-World War II military veterans that are buried in Cook County, IL. The material came from the following long title of the book known as The Roll of Honor, Containing the Names of Soldiers, Sailors and Marines of All the Wars of Our Country Who Are Buried in the Cemeteries of Cook County. The author of the book is Eli Robert Lewis. The book was published in 1922.
Because I do not have an actual copy of the book, I am uncertain as to the scope of this project that created the book. I am not sure where this material was obtained by the author or how inclusive the number of Cook County cemeteries really is.
Nonetheless, this appears to be a great online resource for anyone that may have Chicago/Cook County, IL ancestors that were in the military and were buried in Cook County, IL after their death.
You can visit this search site at:
Roll of Honor – Pre-World War II Deceased Military Servicemen Buried in Cook County, IL
You will see a large list of cemeteries you can search individually or you can search all of them if you scroll down the bottom of the page. If you browse the cemeteries and look at the material you will see scanned images of the actual pages of the source book. Once you select the cemetery to view, it does appear that the surnames are in alphabetical order so you can look to the spot you expect to see a name.
You can also just browse through the material page by page by using the Backward or the Forward arrows on the page.
If you search the entire file and get some hits on the name entered, you will be able to select the linked page where the material occurs and it will take you to an image of the page itself. The name will NOT be highlighted on the page you see but just visually scroll down looking for the surname you searched.
You will find the following information on the deceased service person in the image of the page:
- First Name, Middle Initial (If Available) and Surname of the deceased.
- Their Rank if Available
- Company Served In If Available
- Military Unit If Available
- Date of Death If Available
- Grave Number If Available
- Lot Number If Available
- Block Section If Available
There is some good information Just browsing through many pages you may find more often than not just the name of the person and the cemetery burial information. There did seem to be many gaps on the military information when you look through it.
Perhaps you will have luck and discover an ancestor in here with full information shown.
There are some tips at the bottom of the web page to offer search suggestions.
I could not find any information indicating how many names are contained within the book or the searchable database.
This is a very nice resource for your Cook County, IL military research on deceased military personnel buried within the county, having died prior to 1922 when the book was published.
Give the site a try to see if you have any luck discovering an ancestral military person buried in Cook County, IL.

May 12, 2019, 12:15:01 PMraijinken: Hey there guys. Been a long time. But has anyone found out how to make a hard mode of Dark Dawn?
April 18, 2019, 01:18:08 AMFox: Thinking.... meme topics..... Isaac: Stop calling me a sack! Also, don't call me sick either!
April 03, 2019, 08:24:45 PMFox: Really don't see the point in the Crystal or even the crown conversation, but whatever... (I mean, if you want to do it, then just do it. - Doesn't need to be at GSHC, because there are no longer clan leaders at GSHC.)
April 03, 2019, 03:59:33 AMsquizzy44: We all need to band together to take down Crystal.
April 02, 2019, 12:00:09 AMFox: Your clan? You can't edit it manually, so you have to tell an admin so they can do it. There's actually a topic for when you pick a clan... but uhh... I've no idea if an admin will see it via that, though. (Kain will certainly see id you ping him on GSHC Discord.)
April 01, 2019, 05:28:42 PMsquizzy44: How do I change my position on my profile? I haven't used the site in nearly 10 years...
March 31, 2019, 10:10:15 PMFox: I still wonder if a Tret glitch for speedrunning exists... I don't think I looked into if the PC was on one of the other layers. (Which basically the second layer edits @-0x200 instead of @-0x100... in the event you are going up (y-axis) out of bounds.) Hm.
March 31, 2019, 06:18:43 PMFox: Not me.
March 31, 2019, 02:59:38 PMSalanewt: I don't know of any, although if there were then we'd have to send it as a patch file. I think someone is working on it at least!
March 29, 2019, 07:51:48 PMMaxiPower: no such thing exists
March 26, 2019, 03:38:42 AMreeZ931: I would really appreciate it
March 26, 2019, 02:39:38 AMreeZ931: Anyone have a golden sun rom where you can play as saturos and menardi properly?
March 25, 2019, 09:31:15 PMFox: It would explain why everyone leaves so quickly after taking our bananas.
March 24, 2019, 10:36:10 PMFox: Wouldn't bananas increase agility the more you have? Like... Diddy Kong Racing reference.
March 22, 2019, 11:19:11 PMAverage Wind Seer: Banana: Restores 50PP to user. Restores 40PP to Isaac if Jenna uses this item.
March 22, 2019, 09:57:53 PMSalanewt: Lol. I mean, I am thinking of adding a banana item to GS so...
March 22, 2019, 09:48:42 PMFox: Ooh! Sala's back! I think he wants a banana. All this banana talk must have attracted him.

Infinity Necklace- Galaxy Quartz II
Part of an ongoing collection based on the idea of being fiercely and frustratingly human. A look at the significance and power of time, the beauty in breaking down, and how we can carry each other forward despite disaster, even despite death.
Inspired by the "infinity" symbol, each link is composed of four handmade jump rings. Of those four rings, two are soldered together, and two are melted down into silver spheres. Four components per link and 46-50 links per necklace makes for roughly 200 tiny components, plus the additional rings made and used to connect the completed links. Each connection has been soldered closed. Each link hammered to a reflective sequin.
While I realize these pieces aren't rosaries or mala strands, I think this immense amount of visual and constructive repetition feels so spiritual. Perhaps this is why I love this collection so much. A symbol of effort, persistence, presence, and peace in the moment. I hope you can feel the love in these as well as the giving of time over the days despite the simplicity of the motif. In and out we breathe, step by step we tread. Over and over, ever forward, ever onward.

PHILADELPHIA — It's that time of year.
As part of the NBA Cares Season of Giving, the league, its teams and its players have been providing holiday cheer to thousands of children and families during the months of November and December. Teams and players hosted events around the country, providing an estimated:
- 181,800 meals served
- 65,850 toys donated
- 6,003 hours volunteered by the NBA family during the holidays
- More than 250,000 children and families impacted
Philadelphia 76ers point Jrue Holiday got in the act on Dec. 5, hosting a "Holly Jolly" party for 50 kids from the Atlantic City Boys & Girls Club who were affected by Hurrican Sandy. The kids got to meet Holiday, sit down and watch "A Charlie Brown Christmas," and then get a present from Santa.
A couple of days later, Holiday spoke with NBA.com about the event and how it feels to give back.
NBA.com: What was the event like?
Jrue Holiday: It was cool. The kids, I think, were really excited. They were really appreciative, which makes it that much better. Just hanging out with them, talking with them, just being a kid is always fun.
NBA.com: Did any of the kids make a particular impression on you?
Holiday: There was actually two little girls. One girl's name was 'Beautiful.' The other's name was 'Sunshine.' They were just like, I guess, beautiful and sunshine. They were both really sweet and nice little girls.
NBA.com: How did the event come about?
Holiday: I've always wanted to do something to give back. I know I do at home during the summer. There's a camp at my church that I put on and it's free for anybody. But I haven't really done anything in Philly. So once Sandy hit, it was the opportunity. And since my last name is Holiday … During the holiday season, there's nothing better than to give to kids, especially the ones who, I think, appreciate it the most.
NBA.com: Do you come away from an event like that with a different perspective on things?
Holiday: Oh yeah, definitely with a joy that little kids will always tell you the truth. There's no way that you can fake it with them. They actually brightened up my day by going ahead and doing that.
NBA.com: Do NBA players have a sense of duty to give back like that?
Holiday: For sure. As a little kind once, you've been in situations where you wanted to meet an NBA player, or when you got a chance to meet them, they were the coolest person ever. So just being a role model for people, especially little kids, is big.

Charles Taylor, philosopher, political theorist (b at Montréal 5 Nov 1931). Charles Taylor was educated at McGill University, where he earned a BA in History. He then went as a Rhodes Scholar to Oxford, where he completed a BA, MA, and PhD in Philosophy. After teaching philosophy and political science at McGill, Taylor became Chichele professor of political and social theory at Oxford (1976); he returned to the political science department at McGill in 1982, where he eventually achieved the rank of Professor Emeritus. He later joined the departments of Philosophy and Law at Northwestern University. Taylor has also been actively involved in Canadian politics, serving as VP of the federal New Democratic Party and president of the Québec NDP. He ran for Parliament against Pierre Trudeau in 1965. Charles Taylor is an internationally celebrated public philosopher, one who strives to bridge the gap between philosophical theories and political action.
In his early work Explanation of Behaviour (1964), Taylor critiqued the psychological theory of behaviourism, and maintained instead that explanations of human actions must include reference to purpose and always involve an element of interpretation. As a result he saw the social sciences as being fundamentally different in method from the physical sciences. In addition to his well-known Pattern of Politics (1970), he produced a noteworthy philosophical commentary, Hegel (1975), and in 1979 published Hegel and Modern Society. Many of his shorter pieces are collected in Philosophical Papers (2 vols, 1985).
Taylor first drew an audience beyond his fellow philosophers with the publication of his widely read Sources of the Self: The Making of the Modern Identity (1989). The book provides an annotated history of the changing notions of identity, and the subsequent implications for personal and social interactions. His 1991 The Ethics of Authenticity is based on his Massey Lecture, which was titled with the phrase he coined, The Malaise of Modernity. Here Taylor considers ways to reconcile the seeming conflict between individualism and larger social groups.
Taylor has been a staunch and outspoken defender of Canadian federalism. Reconciling the Solitudes: Essays on Canadian Federalism and Nationalism, was published in 1993. His ongoing interest in the practical effects of contemporary theories and ideas is evident in his 1994 Multiculturalism: Examining the Politics of Recognition.
In 2003, Charles Taylor was the first recipient of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council Gold Medal for Achievement in Research. His continuing efforts to break down the traditional barriers between scientific and spiritual approaches to knowledge and understanding were recognized in his receipt of the world's most lucrative academic award. In 2007 he received the $1.7 million Templeton Prize for Progress Toward Research or Discoveries about Spiritual Realities. Charles Taylor is a Companion of the Order of Canada.

Reminds me of two such incidents when I literally swooped down on the waiter who brought the bill. I was "seeing" some men - arranged marriage - and well, I didn't want to take it any further. I knew the men in question were going to be hurt by the rejection and I didn't want to hog and then add more salt to the injury by saying "no". Maybe I wasn't being considerate, but my biggest concern then was to get out of the mess. Pronto

File and Table Structures
Reference data, like most other HST data, is stored as FITS files. FITS with extensions for the newer instruments, or "waiver" FITS for the legacy Instruments and WFPC2. The FITS files for reference data contain information in the form of tables or images.
For a detailed discussion of understanding and working with these file types, see Chapter 2 of the on-line HST Data Handbook.
Each operational reference file past or present has a unique name. The file name root has the format YMDHHMMSI where:
Y denotes the year (1->Z, 1981=1) M denotes the month (1->C, January = 1) D denotes the day of the month (1->V) HH denotes the hour (00->23) MM denotes the minutes (00->59) S denotes seconds/2 (0->T) I denotes the instrument (j=ACS, n=NICMOS, u=WFPC2, o=STIS, f=FGS, l=COS, i=WFC3 v=HSP, w=WFPC, x=FOC, y=FOS, z=GHRS, m=multiple)
The file name extension which is defined by file type is appended to the unique root.
Example: p9e1544dj_drk.fits is an ACS file (last character in the rootname is j=>ACS); it is a dark file (drk), named on 14 September 2005 at 15 hours 44 minutes 26 seconds (p9e1544d).

AKWaste necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 214 diseños de 46 diseñadores freelance.
Alaska Waste
Alaska Waste provides refuse services to over 70,000 customers across Alaska. We haul trash for both residential and commercial customers. We have also begun a number of waste diversion services that we are hoping to advertise with a unique logo. These include a curbside recycling service, a commercial composting service, and a program that converts used cooking oil into biodiesel. We would like to let consumers know that we are not just a trash company and that environmental stewardship is one of our highest priorities.
Browse our website to learn more about our services: http://www.alaskawaste.net
Residents of Anchorage, Alaska who may be interested in our services. We envision this logo eventually going on the side of our trucks as advertisements for our waste diversion services.
We are looking for a logo to complement, not replace, our current company logo. This logo will specifically represent our environmental stewardship/waste diversion programs: our recycling service, our composting pilot program, and our cooking oil to biodiesel conversion program.
The logo should be something simple with a maximum of three colors that could easily be reproduced on a large object like a truck, but could also work as a letterhead. The logo should compliment our current company-wide logo. (http://www.alaskawaste.net/images/steve_logo.jpg)
This logo should either be a single image in which the text "recycling," "composting," or "biodiesel" could be interchangeably placed, or a logo combining all three waste diversion concepts.
Here are some sample ideas for the environmental stewardship logo that we came up with: http://www.alaskawaste.net/examples.htm
Don't feel at all constricted to something resembling these logo ideas, they're just there to show that we want something with a simple, easily scalable image in a limited color palette. The text on the samples is probably too long to be legible at many different sizes.
We are looking forward to seeing your design ideas!

Jason Mazda, The Press of Atlantic City, Pleasantville, N.J.
When Major League Baseball suspended Carlos Ruiz in November for 25 games after he tested positive for Adderall, many fans wondered why the Philadelphia Phillies catcher didn't have a prescription.Millions of Americans -- including many children -- are prescribed Adderall and other stimulants to treat Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD. If Ruiz had been one of them, he would not have been suspended. Considering how many children take ADHD drugs, however, Ruiz's case raises a much bigger question: Do these stimulants actually enhance athletic performance? No data are readily available to answer that question. But Dr. Christopher Keenan, a pediatrician who lives in Northfield, said he has observed the effects of the drug based on what patients and their families have told him. If a person does not have ADHD or takes too high a dosage, the drugs should not provide an athletic advantage, he said. However, the drugs could help if used correctly by patients who need them. "They can pay better attention to what's going on, what the coach is saying," said Keenan, 57, who works with Harborview CHOP Care and serves as Shore Medical Center's Service Line Chief of Pediatrics. "They're not daydreaming when they're out in the field, which would be the same kind of thing that you'd have in the classroom setting. ... So, in that effect, it has the potential to improve their game." About 5.1 million Americans were prescribed medication for ADHD in 2011, according to the health care information service IMS Health. Detailed age data were unavailable, but a large portion of those prescriptions likely went to children, since the disorder until recently was widely believed to be limited to youth. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated in 2011 that 5.2 million Americans ages 3 to 17 had been diagnosed with ADHD. The drugs are illegal without a prescription, and nearly every sports league from high schools to the pros follows the same guidelines. The New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association, for example, includes amphetamines (which are contained in Adderall) and methylphenidate (better known as Ritalin) on its list of banned substances, but its bylaws make an exception for a "written prescription by a fully licensed physician, as recognized by the American Medical Association, to treat a medical condition." "If the kid is under a prescription, then he's under a doctor's care," NJSIAA Executive Director Steve Timko said. "I think the physician would be able to determine a student-athlete's ability to compete. If everything is controlled, there wouldn't be any reason why the kid wouldn't be operating under the same levels as everyone else." Timko, who serves on the Medical Advisory Committee for the National Federation of State High School Associations, said the abuse of stimulants is not a big concern for the NJSIAA. Steroids and concussions, he said, are more pressing issues. Perhaps it's not a big concern because there is no consensus as to how much the stimulants actually help athletes. Gene Allen, coach of the defending state Group IV champion Atlantic City High School boys basketball team, said he has no experience with athletes taking Adderall or Ritalin. But he said he has had youth who might have benefited from better concentration. "(Concentration) plays a very significant role as far as a kid's ability, just in practice, in learning the nuances of basketball," said Allen, who teaches special education at the school. "I just think it plays a huge role in terms of the ability to concentrate and then go out and apply what you've been taught, particularly in certain scenarios against certain opponents." The drugs can have other effects, though. Dave Mauriello, coach of one of the area's top wrestling programs at Hammonton High School, said he has seen Adderall and Ritalin have a negative effect on athletic ability. "The medicines have definite medical responsibilities and things that they handle, and it's valuable in the classroom," said Mauriello, 42, a Hammonton resident and a health and physical education teacher at the school. "With regard to wrestling, one of the things that I've noticed is, while their attention is better, it seems like their reactions are slower, and their physical aggressiveness is diminished as a result of the medication as well." Keenan said that's more likely due to using too high a dosage. He said that if an athlete appears slower, it's more likely a condition called "zoning." "If the dose is too high, it's hard for the kids to shift their attention to something else," Keenan said. "So it looks like they're zoned." He said aggressiveness should not be affected, though the drugs could lessen an athlete's impulsiveness and creativity. John Stout, who has coached the Southern Regional High School wrestling team to South Jersey Group IV titles seven of the past eight years, said that from his experience, the issue has to be looked at on a case-by-case basis. Stout, a 41-year-old Waretown resident who teaches special education at the school, noted that the drugs can affect certain youth differently depending on their situations. "I think if there's a kid who has an attention-deficit situation where he can't pay attention during practices or whatever it is, and he just has a hard time taking in information, and it's able to level him off so he can absorb the information that's being told to him, whether it's in wrestling practice or whether it's in math class, it doesn't really matter. That's the designed effect for the medication," Stout said. "But some kids, it takes them down too far where it makes them extremely tired and takes away too much of that." Other questions remain, too. The assumption is that stimulants are prescribed for academic purposes and that any effects in the realm of sports are secondary. But what happens when an athlete seeks a prescription with sports as the primary reason? Keenan said he would not prescribe the drugs in that case. The potential side effects -- including heart attacks, strokes, psychosis or hallucinations -- become even more of a threat when the dosage is too high, which Keenan said is often the case with people who use the drugs without prescriptions. Keenan said a patient needs to be having trouble in several areas, such as school, home and work. Athletics can be one of them, but Keenan said he would even be skeptical enough to look closer at the patient's history in that case. "The focus should not be on the athletic field," Keenan said. "It really needs to be in all environments that they're having difficulties." Contact Jason Mazda: 609-272-7193 firstname.lastname@example.com (c)2013 The Press of Atlantic City (Pleasantville, N.J.)

I find it a challenge to find supplies for my cross stitching hobby. However, I am not solely dependent on Ebay, though I have favourite Ebay Sellers. Kota Kinabalu town is not a desert for cross stithers but an oasis in a desert, so there is still hope.
DMC Suppliers in Kota Kinabalu
My favourite spot for DMC floss in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah is Syarikat Meelo, located at A47 1st Floor, Centre Point Sabah, KK and the other alternative (but with fewer choices) is Syarikat Leton (Sabah) Sdn Bhd, 1 Blok E Lrg Tiong Hwa Segama, KK. Still, they don't provide all DMC threads – only the Mouliné Stranded Cotton Art. 117, and not all 454 colours. But they also have Anchor floss and another brand that I'm not familliar with.
Meelo also offers the Aida fabric but I don't think they have Aida 14 and above. The smallest count, I think, is Aida 11. Only plain fabric, no DMC Impressions, Aida band, etc. But who knows, they might think of expanding their collection one of these days…
As for cross stitch books, they are a rarity here in KK. Popular/Harris bookstores offers some cross stitch books and magazines but they are quite expensive. Luckily nowadays, there are online shops in abundant.
– DMC Suppliers in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah
Update : 14.02.2017 – Sad to inform that Meelo is no longer operating at CPS KK, and I don't know whether it has moved to another place or has closed down. In this present economy, I see many small businesses closing down so unless somebody has better info, I'd hazard a guess that it is no longer operating.
The good news is that there are other places offering DMC floss. For more info, please read my other post DIY Cross Stitch For Beginners.
Happy stitching! 😀

Never miss a moment. juice pack air for iPhone 7 delivers up to 100% extra battery for whenever and wherever you go. https://t.co/c3lL5Sjoof
I thought I could live without my Mophie case, and it turns out I couldn't. When I purchased my first case, I had an iPhone 6 Plus, and it was constantly saving my life, especially in college. Now, with a job where I'm constantly on my phone, I'm always killing my battery, and don't even get me started on how "informercially troubled" I looked at all the music festivals this year fiddling with my $5 power bank and long cord. This eliminates all of that - adding a battery pack to your phone case. You can get industrial versions that are super charged, or go with the standard battery pack, and you can even find some refurbished on Amazon if you're looking to try it out without breaking the bank, but I say it's totally worth it. Don't want to be caught with a dead phone this day and age. And don't worry, kids. It's not just for iPhones, they have them for Galaxy and Google Pixel too.

Trooper killed on highway
Editor's note: This story was originally published Nov. 27, 2012
LITCHFIELD - A 32-year-old Illinois State Police trooper was killed while conducting a traffic stop on Interstate 55 near Litchfield on Monday morning.
Trooper Kyle Deatherage was struck by a truck-tractor on I-55 at milepost 62. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
"Trooper Deatherage left a legacy of courage and duty and today he is surrounded by the respect of his fellow officers and by the love of his friends and family," Illinois State Police Director Hiram Grau said in a released statement. "Our hearts are heavy with grief, but they are also strengthened by Trooper Deatherage's brave calling."
Deatherage had been a member of the Illinois State Police since May 31, 2009. He was assigned to District 18 as a motorcycle officer.
Prior to working for Illinois State Police, Deatherage worked for the Madison County Sheriff's Department from July 7, 2004, to May 28, 2009.
He was awarded the Highland Optimist Club Law Enforcement Award in 2007 at the annual Respect for Law banquet in Highland.
Glen Carbon Police Chief John Lakin described Deatherage as a "dedicated law enforcement officer."
Lakin and Deatherage worked together at the sheriff's department.
"He did his job, and he did it well," Lakin said. "More importantly, Kyle was dedicated to his family and his children."
Deatherage is survived by two young children and his wife, Sarah.
Deatherage was a 1998 graduate of Triad High School.
Both lanes of northbound Interstate 55 were closed as police investigated the fatal accident.

Time to Bet Heavily Against FIUPosted by nvr1983 on April 14th, 2009
According to Jeff Goodman at Fox Sports, Isiah Thomas has accepted an offer from Florida International University to become their head coach. We briefly discussed the situation yesterday, but now that it's all but official it is probably a good time to review Isiah's prior experience. As a basketball player, there is no question that he was an all-time great. As a basketball executive/coach? Not so much.
Here is a quick recap of his prior stints in a managerial role:
- Toronto Raptors (1994-1998): Serving as the GM and part-owner, he started by taking B.J. Armstrong with the #1 pick in the 1995 expansion draft. While Armstrong isn't what you would consider #1 pick material, when you look at the other luminaries that were available it was probably a pretty good pick (at the very least he could show the young guys all the three championship rings Michael Jordan won for him that he won). Unfortunately, Armstrong refused to report to the team and was promptly traded. Even though the team was 67-179, Isiah did exhibit some draft acumen by taking Damon Stoudamire (turning the #7 pick into the Rookie of the Year), Marcus Camby (the #2 pick who might have won Rookie of the Year that year if it wasn't for some guy named Allen Iverson), and Tracy McGrady (with #9 pick out of high school just 2 years after Isiah's hilarious plan for Kevin Garnett). Sadly, this was probably the high point of Isiah's managerial career.
- NBC (1998): Briefly worked with Bob Costas and Doug Collins. Not particularly memorable, but it worked out better than his last appearance on NBC (see below).
- CBA (1999-2000): Purchased the league for $10 million on October 7, 1999 and turned down an offer from the NBA to purchase it for $11 million and a percentage of the profits, which according to some sources would have been a $2 million profit (or a 20% ROI) in March 2000. Isiah then promptly proceeded to show everyone what a shrewd businessman he was for turning down the 20% ROI in 5 months by running the league into bankruptcy. [Ed. Note: The fact that the CBA Museum has a page for Isiah Thomas is amazing. Isn't that kind of like a Jewish charity museum starting an exhibit on Bernie Madoff?] Sadly, this was not the low point of Isiah's managerial career.
- Indiana Pacers (2000-2003): Took over a team that Larry Bird had coached to the Eastern Conference finals and decided to change directions with a youth movement by playing Jermaine O'Neal, Jamaal Tinsley, and Al Harrington more minutes. Even though he had a respectable 131-115 regular season record, his stint is largely considered a failure as his team's lost in the first round in each of his 3 seasons as a coach. Heading into Isiah's 4th year, Larry Bird came back as President of Basketball Operations. At his press conference, Bird assured the media that he would work with Isiah. He promptly fired Thomas and replaced him with Rick Carlisle. [Lesson: Don't mess with the Basketball Jesus.]
- New York Knicks (2003-2008): I don't know what can be said that hasn't already been said. I'll just refer you to Jeff Coplon's article that says everything in its title "Absolutely, Positively the Worst Team in the History of Professional Sports". Quick Cliff Notes style summary: Threw away two 1st round picks for Eddy Curry. Fired Larry Brown (his best move) and made himself coach (his worst move–on the court). Ordered his team to commit a hard foul against the Denver Nuggets resulting in a brawl. Despite having the highest paid team in the league and the pipe dream of landing LeBron James he continued to blow money/cap space on over-priced/under-performing players. "Reassigned" and forbidden to have any contact with the Knicks' players. Charged in a sexual harassment lawsuit that led Madison Square Garden to pay $11.6 million to his accuser and offended multiple sponsors. Reportedly overdosed on Lunesta and was taken to the hospital, but afterwards tried to throw the entire thing on his 17 year-old daughter.
So, um yeah, good luck with that FIU.

For her "Big Guy's" thirtieth birthday, Dana from Crafted Niche surprised him with a nightstand she picked up off of Craigslist and refabbed with some cool number art. Dana used a projector to trace on the number design and then painted it in with homemade chalk paint. While the outside is pretty amazing, Dana also customized the inside with dividers to hold the Big Guy's beloved sunglass collection. She definitely gets some awesome girlfriend bragging rights for this gift!
The design on Dana's nightstand was inspired by the Painted Numbers Canvas from Pottery Barn.
