SCCA Equipment - Questions about vendors?
LastV8 replied to LastV8's topic in General Motorsports TalkCheers!
SCCA Equipment - Questions about vendors?
LastV8 posted a topic in General Motorsports TalkHey y'all! I got my SCCA license and plan on doing Hillclimb racing in Pen State, USA. Seems they are tighter on their gear rules than here, so what i need is locations, in Winnipeg (if they exist), for some of the following: Snell helmet - SA2015 rating (for auto racing). Open or full face. Shoes need not be full racing ones, but have to be all leather (including soles) or fire proof materials. Nomex socks. nomex head sock/balaclava. Gloves - (.leather/nomex or military pilots gloves) Much of this, if not all, I'd use for our local events too of course, but on that topic still trying to get my dang car running... again...

LastV8 replied to LastV8's topic in WSCC Driver and Car SpotlightsWell DANG! Looks like I missed this by Months! Cheers. These vids were ok. The first (being my 2nd time out) was much better... the interior racing shots just didn't work at all. I took vids of the Drivers Schools this summer, I just haven't compiled the data just yet. Will try n post here when it is up! Be good to see more Fords out there for sure
'81 Mazda race car for sale
LastV8 replied to Wayne Jones's topic in For SaleAdd some pics, that'd be great (y)
You'll even leave it in first then!?
Nice. Just left it in 2nd? I find I had to get to 3rd and worked on figuring that out during the runs... I have 4:10s in the back sooo 2nd can be pretty screaming on the straights.
FS: 2006 Honda S2000 Laguna Blue Pearl (Mike Woo's)Scammers? O.o
Which ever one is more thorough
Awesome - best of luck! Cable is scheduled to show up *sometime* tomorrow! Fingers crossed!

LastV8 replied to helix's topic in General Autoslalom DiscussionMyself, I think a note was hit that a person has to WANT to come back, like yourself did Helix and do the driving school (which, helped indeed). I think in all honesty, DNFs are an important thing to get. Last year I cam out to 2 events and of my 8 runs I got 3 DNFs. The first DNF I got I had no idea (as well) where it happened. I did have a Instructor with me for the first two runs of the first event. The second event Rob came with me 3/4 runs, the 3rd run, where Rob wasn't available is when I got my DNF lol. I really do think there is a good number of seasoned people willing to come for a ride and help out. The group is one of the friendliest groups of people I have ever ran into - which by the way is awesome! The driving school, (sadly primarily just the morning for me) was indeed very helpful. It was good to see 2 events prior to the Schools and have a grasp of the basics before moving forward. For paid ride-alongs, again alot of people are more than happy (I would think) to hop along for free and have some fun and show / talk some tips. Driving schools is something that I think people are (and do, of course) pay for.
I am interested in helping out too of course. "Maybe use this thread to let people know when you are going to be at the track and setting up." - perfect idea indeed
Whew! Rough go on dem tires Brian man! My tires on the Fox are horrid, especially the fronts. If I am not rolling out a new set this year, expect for certain come the following season. With that said, I am only all too hopeful that UPS delivers (as scheduled) my new clutch cable this Friday so I can get it install (double wrapping in heat shield) but I am always knocking on wood as to what the heck is going to break down next... I otherwise, would let you take a spin at it... but between it's break downs and my tires are actually maybe on par to yours (conditions wise)... mmmm, maybe not the best idea. Off topic, your car (I googled it as well) is 3400 lbs!? Hot damn, I am amazed it is that heavy! Factory Fox is ~ 3200...
I ordered a whole new Clutch Cable and Firewall adjuster - eta was the upcoming Monday. Fingers crossed they are a bit more speedy - we'll see. Sunday I know I have to bow out, but there is a chance for Saturday

Microsoft recently announced availability of Azure Building Blocks around October 5th 2017. The purpose of Introducing this new set of tools is to simplify Azure resource deployment.
In Azure, one of the prominent ways to deploy Azure resources (like VMs, VNets, NSGs etc.) within your Subscription is through ARM templates. However, while ARM templates are a very powerful way to deploy resources and create large/complex Infrastructures on Azure, they are equally complex to author, and can very quickly become a maintenance nightmare.
Azure Building Blocks is a set of tools and pre-defined ARM templates, which can be used to greatly simplify Azure resources deployment, without getting into the complexity of authoring/maintaining ARM templates.
The primary advantage is that you don't need to author any ARM templates with Azure Building Blocks. You only need to specify the parameter settings for the Azure resources you want to deploy. These parameters settings are then automatically merged with best practice defaults for those resources by the
azbb tool to produce a set of parameter files. Next,
azbb tool deploys these newly generated parameter files using a set of pre-built ARM templates.
You can see the whole process visually in the diagram below, which I have borrowed from the Azure Building Blocks Project Wiki.
As of writing of this post, Azure Building Blocks supports following Azure resources, but the coverage will expand over time:
- Virtual Networks (including gateways and peering)
- Network Security Groups
- User Defined Routes
- Windows and Linux VMs
- VM Extensions
- Internal and External Load Balancers
- Application Gateway
How to Install Azure Building Blocks:
To install Azure Building Blocks on your local machine, follow these steps:
- Install the Azure CLI, following the steps for your OS
- Install Node.js for your operating system (Note: version 6.9.4 or greater of Node.js required.)
- In Windows, open a command prompt window. In Linux, use the bash shell.
- Create a new directory for the Azure Building Blocks. Install the Azure Building Blocks npm package in the new directory:
npm install -g @mspnp/azure-building-blocks
(Note: version 3.10.10 or greater of npm package manager required.)
- Test Azure Building Blocks with the following command:
Usage: azbb [options]
-V, --version output the version number
-s, --subscription-id <subscription-id> Azure subscription id
-l, --location <location> Azure region in which to create the resource group
-g, --resource-group <resource-group> name of the resource group
-p, --parameters-file <parameters-file> path to a parameters file
--deploy deploy resources, if --deploy is not used, azbb just creates the output files
-c, --cloud, <cloud> registered Azure cloud to use (use az cloud list to see all cloud names)
-o, --output-file <output-file> output file name prefix
-f, --output-format <output-format> output format: json, files
-d, --defaults-directory <defaults-directory> directory containing customized default values
-t, --template-base-uri <template-base-uri> base uri for building block templates
-k, --sas-token <sas-token> sas token to pass to access template-base-uri
-b, --building-blocks <building-blocks> additional building blocks to add to the pipeline
-h, --help output usage info
Stay tuned until then!
Hope you found this blog post useful. If you have any queries/feedback, please feel free to mention in the comments section below.

6 Delectable Brunch Spots In Nashville
After a night out on the town in Nashville, a recovery brunch is necessary. Whether you're seeking Southern-inspired cuisine or an upscale brunch buffet to remember, here are six must-visit spots for a uniquely Nashville brunch.
Josephine: Located in Nashville's eclectic 12 South neighborhood, Josephine offers diners a unique brunch experience in an industrial yet cozy setting. Chef Andy Little's carefully curated weekend brunch menu includes expected staples like waffles and omelettes but also features signature dishes like the Josephine Benedict (poached eggs, scrapple, country ham, brown butter hollandaise) and the Fried Hot Catfish Sandwich (with lettuce, pickles and rémoulade) that keep avid brunchers coming back, weekend after weekend.
Yeast Nashville: Sometimes, a delicious kolache just hits the spot in the morning, and luckily, Yeast Nashville is a go-to destination to get your fill. What's a kolache? These baked goods are typically made of a yeast-based dough and are filled with a fruit, poppy-seed or cheese filling. Leave it to Yeast to get creative with their kolaches: in addition to sweet-filled varieties, savory sausage- and cheddar-filled eats are also available. In addition to their kolaches, Yeast also serves up delicious baked goods like cinnamon rolls, muffins and more.
Sinema: Sinema is nestled in Nashville's historic Melrose Theatre, which originally opened its doors to theatre-goers in 1942. Now an upscale dining destination, Sinema's culinary team aims to provide guests with an experience that is reminiscent of eras past, from the restaurant's vintage touches to the menu's American-inspired fare. Pop into Sinema's Bottomless Brunch on Saturdays and Sundays and get ready to feast: for $25, diners receive unlimited access to the restaurant's fried chicken and biscuit bar, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, a panini station and more. For an additional $15, stay a while and add on unlimited mimosas and Bloody Mary's to your meal.
Loveless Cafe: Head over to the Loveless Cafe just outside of Nashville, where serving up real Southern fare is a priority. Indulge in morning platters and plates like the Southern Sampler Breakfast (country ham, bacon, sausage, two eggs) or the Barbecue Pork Omelette (sautéed onions, cheddar cheese, barbecue sauce) for a hearty meal that will hold you over well until dinner. After your meal, don't miss the Loveless Cafe's on-site gift shop that is full of Southern-inspired gifts and canned goods to take home.
Husk: Located on Rutledge Hill in a historic home is Husk, a Nashville dining destination that celebrates flavors from the region in all of its dishes. With a menu that changes daily based on what seasonal ingredients are available, Husk diners can expect a different brunch experience each time they visit. Don't miss the dishes that regularly grace Husk's brunch menu, like decadent French Toast, Eggs Benedict, House-made Doughnuts and more.
Acme Feed & Seed: Housed in a historic building at the end of the Broadway strip is Acme Feed & Seed, a rustic destination for dining and live music. Visit this multilevel spot for a hearty, Southern-inspired brunch on Saturdays and Sundays beginning at 10am. Don't miss menu staples like the Beautina Hash (two sunny-side-up eggs over slow-cooked brisket, potatoes, caramelized onion) and the decadent Rule The Roost (hot chicken sandwich with green peppercorn aioli, American cheese, pickles on white bread, hand-cut fries).

LEEDing on Climate Change
This letter was composed by an ad hoc group lead by Greg Kats, LEED AP (Capital E) with Kevin Hydes (Integral), Mary Ann Lazarus and Emma Stewart to encourage USGBC to take stronger action to integrate carbon reduction into LEED.
If you are interested in adding your name to the list, please review the following letter and submit your name to Greg Kats.
LEEDing on Climate Change
Over the last 20 years LEED has become the dominant U.S. green building design standard and is the most widely accepted and influential green building standard globally. This is an extraordinary achievement and has made for healthier, more productive and greener homes, workplaces, schools, hospitals and public spaces for tens of millions of families, students and workers.
The purpose of this proposal is to provide strong support for LEED and USGBC in strengthening its leadership around climate issues – the single dominant issue that threatens to collapse human and environmental ecosystems.
There is now overwhelming scientific consensus on the severity of human driven climate change, with increasing scientific calls for more aggressive responses to limit climate change. For example, a 2017 Scientific American article entitled The Window Is Closing to Avoid Dangerous Global Warming warns that "Deadly climate change could threaten most of the world's human population by the end of this century without efforts well beyond those captured in the Paris Agreement." The Scientific American article quotes from a 2017 report published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that states that; "We are quickly running out of time to prevent hugely dangerous, expensive, and perhaps unmanageable climate change."
Buildings represent 40% of energy use and almost half of the emissions changing our climate. Reducing the GHG footprints of buildings – both new and existing – is now among the most economically appealing of all options. And the cost of renewable energy, energy-efficiency and storage technologies continues to drop steeply (e.g. solar PV, wind, LEDs, batteries, ground-source heat pumps, etc). Combined with new financing mechanisms (e.g. PPAs), this now makes low-carbon buildings the same price or only marginally more expensive upfront than conventional buildings, and generally cheaper when considered on a lifecycle basis. LEED should seize on the opportunity provided by these recent steep drops in renewable energy costs.
Although many LEED projects go well beyond minimum requirements, LEED's existing structure allows its highest levels – gold and platinum – to be only marginally better on climate change. Given the science and USGBC's mission, LEED can and should be used to send a much clearer, stronger message on climate change to the market. The recommendations below are the culmination of a dialogue between the undersigned and building industry stakeholders, commercial and city property owners, USGBC staff, climate scientists, USGBC committee members and other interested parties. The views below represent the opinions of the undersigned and it is our belief that these changes will strengthen LEED and enable and motivate the building industry to move faster and further on climate change. We have developed (through an iterative consensus process) a set of recommendations for changes to LEED's V4.1 process that we believe will strengthen LEED and its global leadership position on the critical issue of climate change.
While we recognize that the weighting around climate change has increased in each successive iteration of LEED, it needs greater weight given the acceleration of climatic change and its severe impacts on human health globally, particularly on the world's poor. Because LEED is the globally recognized standard for green buildings, LEED must be a strong leader on climate change. The recommendations below are offered to support all efforts by USGBC to recognize and motivate the market to respond to the urgent need for aggressive climate action. We stand ready to assist USGBC in its efforts to tackle the greatest threat we face as a species.
Through the Technical Committees, LEED V4.1 should be revised to require meaningful minimum carbon reductions for each level of LEED certification, both for new LEED buildings and for LEED rating renewals.
LEED can and must step up. Specifically, LEED V4.1 should
- Establish minimum CO2 reduction for each level of LEED:
- Certified: 20%/40% minimum CO2 reduction
- Silver 40%/60% minimum CO2 reduction
- Gold 60%/80% minimum CO2 reduction
- Platinum 80%/100% minimum CO2 reduction (i.e. the reduction level called for by the IPCC)
The above provides two numbers for each level. The first is for immediate adoption in LEED V4.1. LEED. V4.1 also needs to include the second, higher minimum performance to phase-in in 2 or 3 years so that everyone knows what the schedule is and can plan accordingly. (Baseline is the applicable building code requirement eg ASHRAE 90.1.) Within a few years after V4.1 adopts, small renewable energy PPAs, community solar and similar low cost renewable energy purchasing structures will be even more widespread and the cost of getting to net zero carbon buildings will drop to close to or less than zero for most of the country, so adoption of deeper minimum CO2 reductions will continue to become more cost effective. Getting LEEDs greenest buildings to a minimum of net zero carbon will allow LEED to move from just less damaging to affirmatively contributing to global warming reduction.
Operational Carbon: C02 counted should immediately include energy from building operations, including from energy and water consumption. V4.1 should also – either immediately or within a set timeframe of maximum of 2 or 3 years, include CO2 from transportation and embodied CO2. In all cases calculations should be based on source energy (eg transportation costs included) and should preference or require measured rather than modeled data. Data for performance should be open, available and transparent – the opposite of black box.
Embodied CO2: Because embodied CO2 in materials can represent up to a decade of CO2 from operations of very efficient buildings, the V4.1 upgrade needs to include embodied CO2, preferably building-wide but at least for concrete and steel (and any other big embodied C02 sources). Canada recently launched the Zero Carbon Building Standard that includes a requirement for projects to calculate and report their embodied carbon. LEED should immediately do the same. For example, the CarbonStar concrete CO2 disclosure standard being developed could provide an easy and transparent way to specify and measure pounds CO2/cubic yard (or cubic meter) of concrete. USGBC should support development and adoption of this kind of industry CO2 disclosure standard for building products with significant embodied CO2.
- Correct current REC loophole
Because current profligate use of RECs commonly undermines CO2 reductions (and hurts LEED's credibility), RECs should not count in LEED or toward CO2 reduction requirements unless extremely restricted, eg only if they meet all 3 of the following conditions:
- RECS are from projects under development or not yet started at time RECs are purchased
- RECS are for a minimum 10 years purchase agreement and
- RECs demonstrably enable new renewable energy project financing and build-out
The above recommendations are the culmination of an extensive dialogue between the undersigned and a broad range of building industry stakeholders, all of whom have a deep interest in LEED and in promoting expansion of a global green building standard that leads on climate change.

Gummy Smile Treatment
Gummy smile reduction is now possible, simple and effective. Utilizing a non-surgical approach by injecting small amounts of botox into the hyperactive muscle of the upper lip, Dr Saurav Chaturvedi will give you a smile that is natural and carefree. This simple procedure will weaken the hyperactive muscles and reduce the elevation of your upper lip, thereby reducing your inhibiting gummy smile. If a thin upper lip is a contributing factor, Dr Saurav may suggest upper lip augmentation with FDA approved filler Juvederm.

Hello, Again
I haven't updated my blog since April 25 (nearly three weeks) because I just haven't felt like I had anything to blog about. This is the result of exhaustion from late nights finishing graduate school assignments, district collective bargaining agreement negotiations, End-Of-Year PARCC testing, and personal angst about my classroom.
I was getting ready to write a new post this evening and discovered that I had 96 views on May 6. This shocked me, because my busiest day was November 11, 2013, when Neil Gaiman tweeted my post about his delightful children's book, Fortunately, The Milk. So I looked at the stats closer and saw that I only had 7 unique visitors. So somebody came to my blog and spent a long time reading. A lot. Because I have a free account, I have no way of tracking down this individual but just in case you decided to start following my blog in the hopes that I would start posting again: Thank you, random stranger, for spending your day reading my random musings. I hope you got something good out of it. And I promise I will be updating more regularly over the next couple of weeks. I'll even try to update over the summer, too.

I am not really a randomly stranger since we met many years ago when I gave you a ride home from Decatur. It has been helpful and the blog roll as well. Our youngest two children asked to attend public school this fall (1st & PreK) and we are going to give it a try. I decided I should learn more about what we're getting into. A lot has changed since we decided to remove our oldest from public school 7 years ago. The oldest wants to continue with homeschool. He is a Sophomore in high school so it's his choice in our home as long as he is willing to do the work.

There were other bands on the bill but I have forgotten who they were (John, can you fix this?). Anyhow, I seriously believe this was the show that caused my tinnitus in my left ear that has been with me since. -Robert

My little rainbow.
Because I made you,
I thought I'd know just what to do,
That I would understand you,
That love would get us through.
Because you grew in me,
I thought I would know everything,
I didn't know what life would bring,
But I didn't know anything.
Because I didn't understand,
Life wasn't going as I planned,
Crumbling under the demands,
I looked for someone to hold my hand.
Because I didn't expect Autism,
I didn't understand the condition,
I needed to find someone to listen,
Needed help to make decisions.
Because I didn't know where to go,
I looked for people who might know,
I met friends who've helped us grow,
I owe it all to you, my little rainbow.

NEW ORLEANS (NNS) -- The Nightwolves of Carrier Airborne Warning Squadron (VAW) 77 will be formally disestablished during a ceremony aboard Naval Air Station/Joint Reserve Base New Orleans, March 9.
The Nightwolves, a reserve E-2 squadron based at NASJRB New Orleans, have been responsible for various missions within the strategic reserve including counter-narcotics and human trafficking interdiction, disaster response and missile exercise support.
VAW-77 consists of six E-2C Hawkeye aircraft and 112 personnel (72 Full Time Support and 40 Selected Reservists). The squadron's beginnings go back to 1995, when the U.S. Congress created the reserve squadron as a result of the United States' escalating war on illegal drug trafficking.
VAW-77 received four specially modified E-2C Hawkeye airborne early warning aircraft optimized for counter-drug missions. As part of the Navy's post-Cold War role, VAW-77 flight crews patrolled the waters of the Caribbean in joint missions with the U.S. Coast Guard and other drug enforcement agencies in search of illegal aircraft and ships.
Due to budgetary constraints, the Navy decided to decommission VAW-77 in fiscal year 13. While this choice was difficult, it was within the limits of the resources available to the Navy. There will always be the need to balance direct warfighting capability against missions like those assigned to VAW-77.
"Their last flight was Jan. 29," said Lt. Cmdr. Erin Wreski, program manager for Commander Naval Air Force Reserve's (CNAFR) Tactical Support Wing. "Their disestablishment ceremony will be March 9, and the squadron officially closes its doors March 31.
"The squadron's six aircraft will be transferred to other carrier airborne warning squadrons," Wreski said. "And the squadron members will transfer to various other CNAFR squadrons around the country."
The Navy remains committed to missions within the strategic reserve including counter-narcotics and human trafficking interdiction. Navy ships and aircraft have unique capabilities to detect and monitor criminal activities in the maritime domain, especially tracking the movement, by sea and air, of illicit materials intended for the United States.

Our volunteer, Georgia Harris is using her skills and having some creative fun by making and donating children's size surgical caps. Georgia is using various kid-appealing fabrics for children who will be having procedures/treatments. The children get to pick out a cap of their choice which they use and get to keep.
Georgia saw a posting on Facebook about a group of volunteers, in Rochester, who make children's surgical caps for their Pediatric patients. This posting inspired her to make surgical caps for our patient in Stony Brook Hospital. http://www.whec.com/news/golisano-childrens-hospital-hats-patients/4671586/
Children's Surgical Cap Instructions
Materials needed:
- Cotton/polyester blend fabrics. Choose designs that are suitable for children. Fabric should not have glitter, sequins, textures or any other materials attached on it. There is no need to prewash the fabric or caps. The caps are going to go through rigorous washing and drying at the hospital to ensure they are sanitized before entering the operating room.
- Scissors or rotary cutter
- 18 ¾ inch diameter circle template or pattern
- Thread and bobbin
- 1/8-inch braided elastic
- Straight pins
- Threading tool or safety pin
- Cutting surface and sewing machine
- Cut out a circle that measures 18 ¾ inches in diameter. You'll save time by using pinking shears or a rotary pinking cutter. If you use straight edge scissors or rotary cutter you will need to overcast the edge of the circle to prevent fraying.
- If you used a straight edge scissor or rotary cutter you will need to overcast or serge the edge of the fabric to prevent fraying.
- Fold over ½ inch around the edge of the cap to create a casing for the elastic. You can do this as you sew or iron it down ahead of time.
- Sew close to the raw edge making sure to leave at least 1/8 inch free for the casing. Leave a
2-inch opening for feeding through the elastic. Since it's a circle you are going to have to ease it over to prevent bulges and gaps. A circle has a good deal of bias on the edge. This means it has stretch. Slightly pull and stretch the fabric towards you as you feed it into the machine. This will help prevent creases and gaps and allow it lay flatter. It's not easy keeping an even casing on a round edge. After you do a couple it will get easier.
- Cut a 19-inch piece of 1/8 inch elastic. Thread it through the casing. I highly recommend using a Dritz Drawstring Threader.
- Tie the ends of the elastic together tightly close to the ends. Cut off any excess but don't cut too close to the knot or it will come untied.
- Spread the gathers out evenly.
- Sew the casing opening closed.
- You're done!
Tips & time-saving tricks:
I'm all about saving time and money. Here are some of the things I've learned making these caps.
- Create your template out of something durable. I have an awesome husband who made one for me out of plexiglass. Corrugated cardboard would work just fine. Then you can just run a rotary cutter around the edge. Saves time not having to pin and unpin a paper pattern. You'll have to replace a paper pattern more often.
- Choose fabrics that have even just a hint of white. This will allow you to use white thread throughout the process. If you are making several at a time it means you won't have to change thread for different colored fabrics.
- Buy fabric when it's on sale, from discontinued shelves and remnant bins. Use your craft store coupons!
- Buy thread and elastic in bulk. White thread is cheaper. You can get a good deal on a three pack of Coats & Clark white all purpose polyester thread at Amazon. You can also get a good deal on 50 yards of 1/8 inch white braided elastic at Amazon.
- Precut the elastic to 19-inch strips and store in a plastic bag. You can get 94 strips out of a
50-yard spool.
- Take one of those spools of thread and wind up some bobbins before you start. Then you don't have to stop to load up a bobbin in the middle of your work. Just pop in a preloaded one.
- Place a pin in the opening of the casing so it's easy to find it when you go to run the elastic through it.
- Buy a Dritz Drawstring Threader. It only costs about $3 all over the internet. It will save you time and finger pain. If you are doing several at a time pushing a safety pin through the casing will get tiring on your fingers and hands. This tool makes it a snap!
If you have any questions, need some help or have tips and tricks to share with others, please drop me a note at firstname.lastname@example.com.

St. Hugh's JCR voted unanimously to express "solidarity" with students and faculty members of the Central European University (CEU) as a government act threatens to force the institution to close.
Under the legislation, CEU employees will require work permits, limiting the University's ability to recruit staff.
The government has also demanded that the CEU opens a campus in America and no longer teaches US-accredited courses.
The JCR voted to "condemn the actions taken against the Central European University by the Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orbán and his government". It condemned the legislation as "an attack on the values of academic freedom, democracy, and open society".
Radim Lacina, who proposed the motion, welcomed the passing of the motion as an affirmation of the "basic values of academic freedom and democracy".
He added: "As an isolated act, the proclamation of the JCR has little impact. However, were this issue to gain traction and were it brought to the attention of OUSU and the University, then actions with considerable consequences might take place".
Elise Page, who seconded the motion, argued: "We shouldn't underestimate our power as a group of students, not just as St Hugh's JCR but as OUSU, and as the NUS.
"We care passionately about the freedom of education, and we won't be silent. With our continued pressure and vocality, the CEU will hopefully be able to continue to educate without hindrance".
The CEU was founded in 1991 by financier and philanthropist George Soros, with whom Prime Minister Orbán has repeatedly disagreed.
The institution has become one of Europe's most prestigious universities for social sciences and humanities with the attack on the institution seen as part of Prime Minister Orbán's self-professed aim to establish an "illiberal" democracy.
Since the electoral triumph of Orbán's Fidesz party in 2010, the government has also attacked independent media organizations and NGOs.
In Hungary, the legislation threatening the CEU has been met with an eruption of protest, with a series of large demonstrations in Budapest since its passing in the Nation Assembly.
The issue has also become the subject of a European Commission investigation as a potential breach of EU law.
St. Hugh's JCR maintained that this attack on academic freedoms proved "to be a danger to Hungarian democracy" and affirmed their support for the survival of values such as "free academic endeavour, of free exchange of ideas, and of a democratic and open society".
Hungary is the 21st largest economy in the European Union which it joined in 2004.
It is located around 1,167 miles from St Hugh's JCR.

When I was younger, I was often teased about my "caterpillar eyebrows". As soon as I convinced my Mom to let me get them waxed, the teasing stopped but I had half the eyebrows I did before! I specifically remember my grandmother telling me once, "Let those eyebrows grow while you can. Someday you'll be drawing them in like me". I know what she meant now, and if I could go back in time I certainly wouldn't wax them away. I still have pretty thick brows, but they definitely need some grooming and upkeep!
My newest, favorite secret? Younique Moonstruck Precision Brow Gel & Liner. This has totally changed my brow game and made my make-up routine much easier in the morning. I had searched for a good brow gel for years, unable to find something that I really liked and kept my brows in place all day. The Precision Gel has tiny fibers in it to not only nourish your eyebrows, but also thicken them. The gel is formulated with Uplift Eye Serum, to both shape and tame existing brows while filling in and thickening sparse areas. It also comes in three shades- light, medium, and dark (I'm using dark), so it's easy to blend into your natural coloring.
See if you can guess which eyebrow has been "made over" below...
I'm sure you guessed that the eyebrow on the left has Younique Brow Gel and Liner, and the brow on the right is the "before". After applying the two products, my eyebrows appear thicker and aren't as wild and unruly. I simply draw in the sparse spots with the pencil liner (which I love! it goes on so smooth), then swipe brow gel once over the shape of each brow. They stay in place all day and I don't have to worry about touching them up at all!
Order your Younique Brow Gel & Liner here. I hope you love them as much as I do! They really are a make-up game changer. :)
If you have any questions about the products, feel free to leave them in the comments and I'll be happy to answer as best I can!
Hope you have a fun, relaxing Labor Day!
xo, Britt

Walking is something that is also to be
considered. I normally keep a weekly
goal. I have to refer back to my hip problem since I found a variety of
oddball problems
arose from an inability to walk. Walking tones all sorts of things and
we were designed
to walk quite a bit (hunter gatherers have to gather and hunt, don't
they?) If you don't like or want to do any cardivascular training, you
should really think about walking.
One other thought is that walking or running a given distance burns the
same number of calories,
at least in theory, but I don't think so in practice. When people run
they strip down to just
the bare minimum for the weather. When people walk, they tend to carry
things like full backpacks.
I really think that walking burns more calories in practice.
Just because you can walk, does not mean
you can run. I've actually seen people that walk faster than they run
because their mechanics are so lousy. Generally when you run you should
have your chest forward and be looking ahead. Shuffling along while
watching the ground means your form is off. Also, your feet should hit
either at the ball or mid-foot. Running with a heel first landing
causes you to come to a stop with almost every step and that is very
harsh on your joints. Need I remind you that the Latin word mille for 1,000 is the basis of the
word "mile"? This is because 1,000 strides was one Roman mile (and you
thought they just made up 5,280 feet. A stride is approximately as long
as the person is tall, so Romans were a bit shorter on average, we
infer.) If you have pain (shins, knees hips are the main culprits) it
is a good idea to get evaluated by someone who has experience.
Swimming is another great exercise, but
there is a steep learning curve to it before you can get a quality
workout in. I would generally suggest everyone take a few courses at
the Y and plan on getting the basic strokes of side, crawl and back
down. Butterfly is great, but complex. Breaststroke is often far too
taxing on the knees, so I don't really count that as such a good stroke
to learn.
(Although it does have its uses --
originally it was so you could swim through a marsh and push reeds out
of the way, unlike the crawl stroke, which is from the American Indians
and was the prferred way to get across a river. Sidestroke in its
current form is traceable to samurai who swam in bamboo armor and
needed to be able to draw a sword when sneaking into a boat. Suijutsu is the Japanese name for
samurai arts that involve swimming and back in the early 1900's many
Olympic freestyle records were set by Japanese doing sidestroke. This
is because they did suijutsu
and were trained to sprint in armor.)
My personal favorite way to practice
swimming is to do figure-8's in the pool. Your back and rotator cuffs
will like you for this. This is an analog of circle walking. Very
simple, effective and useful. Normally I do not allow myself to touch
any external surfaces once I start swimming, exceptions are made for
things like equipment issues (goggles leaking), clueless lane partners
and the like. If you really want, mix some swimming sprints in.
One final point is that running is not in the same catogory as
sprinting. Sprints are really a type of plyometric training. Sprints
are good and will make you strong, but you cannot sprint for a half an
hour without a trip to the emergency room. When I talk about running, I
do mean jogging.

Choose Exposed Aggregate for Your Paving Needs
Posted on: 21 June 2016
If you are thinking of repaving the exterior of your residence, you will find that there are a myriad of materials that you can choose from. However, if you would like something that is both unique as well as long lasting, you should consider opting for exposed concrete aggregate. This type of paving can be achieved in two main ways. The first is through the stripping of your original concrete surfaces so as to create a rough texture by exposing the aggregate originally mixed in the concrete.

There Are Four.............
There are four ways to deal with the negative situations that you encounter in your life, the ones you don't like or feel that you are unable to change. Ignoring them Bury them Learning to put up with them Changing your attitude If you decide to ignore them you will create dis-ease with in your body, as well as mental anguish. If you bury them you will also cause mental and physical dis-ease within your body, by doing either of the above you are creating a pathway for depression in your later life. If you learn to put up with them, again you are not dealing with the situations, you are in fact burying them, just in a different way, hence heading for internal and external disaster. Changing your attitude and working through the challenges that you have encountered however will assist you in moving past them and releasing the negativity that has been surrounding you. Your health will improve and you also see a major improvement in your mental approach to life too. No one can make you feel guilty, nor can any past situation, it is gone, therefore can no longer cause you harm. No one can make you feel angry or frustrated, these emotions too come from your inability to accept a lesson, learn from it and thus move forward with your life. Harbouring negativity and anger only hurts you, it stops you from living your life, sees you causing major illness and holding onto abusive emotions within your body. By choosing to take control of your life you set yourself free, to know that you hold the key to unlock any negative situation's that keeps a prisoner of the past, which in turns never allows you to lead your life in the present. By going back over your life story and looking back with an open and forgiving heart you will not only free yourself, but also all those unwanted and useless skeletons that are hanging in your closet.................

I'm working through a weight management decision and looking at changes differently. Now I push the opportunity to find another small change to try making. Pretty successful so far. Next step will be making changes with my interpersonal relationships.

Welcome! I am so glad that you are considering attending or sponsoring the Go Red: Celebrate With Heartevent to be held on November 10, 2011. This event raises not only funds, but also priceless awareness of the many heart-related diseases and issues that women face.
Each year, through the generosity of those like yourself, Maine is able to contribute funds to the American Heart Association and, in doing so, help save lives.
If you are a first-time attendee or sponsor- Welcome! If you are a returning friend of Go Red-Thank you for your continued support. Together we can raise even more money and bring the much-needed attention to women's heart issues.
I look forward to seeing you at The Coastal House for the silent auction and dinner. It is certain to be time (and money) well spent.
Paulette Millette, Chair
2011 York County Go Red
Dear Friends,
Welcome to the 2011 Go Red: Celebrate With Heart! We're delighted you want to learn how you can advance health, stop heart disease and save women's lives. That's what Go Red For Women is all about.
Heart disease isn't just a man's problem. It's a woman's problem, too. In fact, it's women's No. 1 killer. And, tragically, far too few women realize their risk from this often-preventable disease. We need to raise women's awareness, to protect our mothers, daughters, sisters, friends and other loved ones. And ourselves.
You can help, starting today. Here's how:
First, take charge of your own heart health. Visit your doctor. Know your numbers (learn more at goredforwomen.org). You can improve your blood pressure, cholesterol and other numbers by making lifestyle changes. You'll be healthier and look and feel better, too.
Second, speak up. Help spread the word that heart disease is women's No. 1 killer. You can make a difference. Choose to share what you learn today with your family and members of your community.
Third and last, consider making a contribution. Your donation will help fund local and national Go Red activities to support awareness, research, education and community programs to benefit women.
Please don't leave today without committing to make a difference. Join the Go Red For Women movement — women need your help. There's so much to do, and so much at stake. Only one in five women believes that heart disease is her greatest health threat. Reducing risk and preventing heart disease starts with education — and you.
By working together, we can help women and their families live longer, stronger lives. Thank you for your generous support.
Warm regards,
Nancy Brown
Chief Executive Officer
American Heart Association
Join us and Make it Your Mission to help in the fight against heart disease in women.

What is it? Treign has been making some great training gear for a while and now they have recently branched out into training shorts. This is what the folks at Treign had to say about it, "We didn't feel like generic shorts available were the quality we wanted to offer. We looked a some of the top shorts on the market and tried to use qualities from them but still have ours be unique. Our shorts are manufactured with great materials and with attention to detail. We mostly wanted to make a good quality short at a good price."
What do I think? When I got these shorts from Treign, the first thing they talked to me about was the length. These are 92/8 nylon/spandex blend and have an 11" inseam. In a time when I was starting to think that workout shorts were just getting shorter and shorter, I was happy to see a pair that was going in the other direction. The Treign short has an awesome blend of lightweight feel and solid fit. True fitting around the waist, I thought the length on these was perfect. Longer cut so that they sit just above the knee was exactly what I was looking for. If there is anything to work on, it is the lack of pockets. There is one zipper pocket and it was big enough for my cell, but that was all. If you are heading to and from the gym, there is not much you can carry. Also, more colors and designs would be a plus. Right now they just come in black with white print.
Why do you need it & when should you use it? If you are looking for a great fitting pair of shorts that are a return to a standard length, the Treign shorts could be the answer. These are great for any kind of workout or training session including running and can also be used as trunks for a day at the pool or beach.
How do you get it? Treign shorts can be picked up at local comps and the CrossFit Games. They are available on their site (or will be soon) and retail for only $55.

Qualys announced today it's snapping up assets of Nevis Networks, as the cloud-based security and compliance solutions provider seeks to increase its network traffic analysis capabilities and expand into new markets.
As part of the deal, Qualys plans to natively integrate Nevis' network traffic analysis tools into its Qualys Cloud Platform. Nevis' analysis tools are designed to aid enterprises on enforcing networking access controls to business applications, based on the company's policies.
Qualys, which did not disclose the terms of the cash transaction, believes the acquisition will provide it with greater knowledge on passive scanning technologies that in turn will ramp up its move into the endpoint mitigation and response market. Nevis' technology allows company employees and guests, such as contractors and customers, to share network access, while providing the needed controls that are required by regulatory and compliance agencies.

In addition to printed choices, students can get their books on the devices they enjoy by means of Pearson's MyLab & Mastering goods, Amazon, and far more. I'd really like to reside in a society where you, as a taxpayer, gave science writers a decent salary (and expenses) to create cost-free textbooks for students. The book has the feel of becoming written by a young, committed, public school teacher on the frontlines of a key battle, which is exactly what Kozol was. Students and teachers used them with fantastic enthusiasm, stated Mark Share, the district's 64-year-old director of technology, a white-bearded former teacher from the Bronx with an iPhone clipped to his belt. The accompanying CD-ROM contains information files for each physical exercise in the Student Edition. Furthermore, there are considerable expenses associated with writing textbooks and the university does not spend for any of those. The teacher cannot think for her students, nor can she impose her believed on them. Students can buy a discounted loose-leaf print edition of the text within the MyLab or Mastering internet site.
If they're supposed to take a loss, it's going to imply most textbooks are really badly written and could contain faulty information. When youngsters take pleasure in pleasant surroundings with excellent materials, modern day gear and below the tutelage of a top quality teacher then they will take more pride in their education. They're inundated with 24/7 media, so they expect it," stated Sharon Smith, 44, a gregarious seventh-grade social research teacher whose classroom is down the hall from Ms. Furman's. It is a understanding scenario in which the cognizable object (far from becoming the end of the cognitive act) intermediates the cognitive actors – teacher on the one particular hand and students on the other.
This was similar to the beliefs of the Italian teacher and psychologist Loris Malaguzzi who founded the Reggio Emilia method to early finding out in the 1940s in Italy. You are coming across as though you believe textbook authors reside a life of leisure and the royalties from the textbooks go into a fund which they use to tip the cabana boys who bring them drinks as they lounge around pools at tropical resorts, or at least towards similarly frivolous purposes. There are so a lot of EFL Textbooks that it can be a bit overwhelming to pick the very best one. On the other hand, the hardback edition has not been updated or revised for the changes which will have taken location considering that 1995 when it was 1st published. In 1989, Watson Guptill published the 45th anniversary edition and the pointers it provides do not date – nor do the drawings by the masters which are included in this volume. Properly yeah, of course there is a lot of fees in making and selling textbooks.
Accuracy has been observed by this series, with knowledgeable teachers very carefully checking every query within Pearson Mathematics – up to 5 times! Pearson Mathematics for Year eight eTextbook follows the Australian Curriculum for Mathematics. These foundations, with the support of a committed group of professionals and community people just like you, have come collectively to make a suite of truly great, very cost-free textbooks. To access any of the on-line math textbooks listed under from a personal computer click the following Pearson link. Pearson Collections: A flexible selection for producing the best course components for the way you teach. The Active English Discussion series is place out by Pearson Longman, authored by Andrew Finch. Pearson Science 8 activity book, eight student book and 9 student book from the second edition variety are released.
Pearson Science for Year ten is developed for an inquiry approach to science studying. They seem to have mixed up the conversations and workouts just for the sake of it in the second edition. Most of the textbooks such as Globe Hyperlink, Smart Decision, four Corners or Best Notch cover the four expertise (listening, speaking, reading, writing). Pearson Mathematics for Year 7 follows the Australian Curriculum for Mathematics. Pearson Baccalaureate Essentials is the initial IB series written specifically for EAL students. This year he is inspired and ambitious, more than ever ahead of, because of his new teacher. Pearson Science for Year 7 is created for an inquiry method to science finding out.

Setting up a CMMS system can be an overwhelming task. To make setup easier, it is important that you have a plan in place and that your CMMS has tools available to help you gather initial data.
The first step in the process is usually deciding on how you will identify equipment, and entering equipment information into the system. The debate over using an intelligent number system or sequential numbering system is as old as the first CMMS, and there is no real right or wrong answer to this. The important thing is pick a method and stick with it. Remember, be consistent!
If you choose an intelligent number system, keep it simple. Something like Equipment type and number works great. Let's say you have six HVAC units you want to enter into the system. The equipment IDs for these units would be HVAC-001, HVAC-002 and so on. Notice we gave 2 leading zeros for the equipment number. You generally want to make sure you have plenty of room for growth in your system.

Monday on ABC's "The View," progressive liberal flimmaker Michael Moore made the case that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton at the presidential debates did not "get out the club" on Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump because of her Christian faith.
"I think that's because honestly, when she says that she's a Christian, I think she means it and I think she lives it."
Partial transcript as follows:
MOORE: I can give you all the political reasons that I disagree with her on. But to think of her in the Oval Office, representing this country, come on. First of all, I say this to Bernie people: We're not being asked to vote for Margaret Thatcher or Clarence Thomas or, you know. She adopted two thirds of Bernie's positions I mean, she really went the extra mile to try and bring everyone into the tent, and I think her behavior during the debates, I was in a place where actually you were there watching it and we were hoping she would get out the club and just — you know.
BEHAR: But she didn't.
MOORE: No, she didn't. And I think that's because honestly, when she says that she's a Christian, I think she means it and I think she lives it.
BEHAR: She never works the Christian angle, I noticed. She doesn't do the religion thing.
MOORE: Because the people who talk about it, 'I'm a Christian,' oftentimes aren't. Because the idea of being a Christian is to just behave that way.

I'm 50, I'm Rocking a Bikini And I Don't Care What Anybody Thinks
I can think of only three reasons why a woman my age shouldn't wear a bikini on a public beach:
- She lives in a country where doing so will get her thrown into the slammer.
- She's in the witness protection program.
- She cares what other people think.
Fortunately, I have no such problem. What I have is a positive body image—meaning, whatever my body looks like, I'm cool with it. Sure, some parts of my anatomy are less perky than they used to be and I am not immune to the effects of gravity. Even my knees are lower! And I wouldn't be surprised if that cellulite farm on my thighs qualifies for a federal tax deduction. However, I refuse to label these normal signs of aging as flaws" To me, they are badges of courage.
I love the freedom and youthful spirit of a bikini. Even the jiggle. Nothing is more liberating than strutting my stuff along the ocean's edge wearing nothing other than a wisp of fabric and a smile. (Would I go topless on the French Riviera? You betcha.)
I welcome appreciative glances from men, as well as "who does she think she is" glares from women. Interestingly, these negative reactions usually come from women my own age who hit the beach as covered up as nuns. I'm not an exhibitionist, I just prefer the comfort of a bikini. One-piece swimsuits feel like slingshots. They either ride up and give you a wedgie, or they squeeze your innards like an 18th-century corset. The worst offenders are the so-called "miraculous" suits. Who designed them? Torquemada? Think about it, anything that promises to give a pear-shaped woman an hourglass figure isn't just a marvel of engineering—it's excruciating. Plus, you end up with weird tan lines, as if only your arms and legs went to the beach and the rest of you stayed home.
'You're so brave to wear a bikini," gush female friends, as if their more modest swimwear disguises the fact that they spend more time at Dunkin Donuts than on the treadmill. It doesn't. Even a head to toe scuba suit would reveal their fondness (and mine) for Bavarian cremes.
The wonderful thing about being 50 is not giving a damn. I don't compare myself to my peers or, for that matter, to Heidi Klum or Beyoncé (they're Photoshopped, ya know). With me, what you see is what you get: the surgical scars, Marshmallow Fluff belly and so on.
Half the fun of rocking a bikini is the surprise factor. No one expects it of a woman my age. I love showing up at pool parties in a demure coverup, then tossing it off and diving into the deep end—in more ways than one. I think of it this way, no one judges men my age for wearing swim trunks that blatantly display pot bellies, saggy boobs or backdoor cleavage. Until they hide their imperfections, I'm flaunting mine.
My comfort with my body goes back to art school where models were often mature women with Rubenesque figures. I learned to see the natural beauty in fleshy, curvaceous bodies that were the antithesis of the supermodels of the day. While my genetics denied me the lush abundance of a Renoir nude, I never strived to be thin. What I strived for was to be healthy and to be happy in my own skin. Wearing a bikini is an outer sign of my inner well-being.
Will I ever stop wearing one? Absolutely. As soon as nude beaches are legal!
