You're probably aware of all the dental products that claim to eliminate plaque buildup, or simply remove plaque from your teeth. But do you know what plaque is, or why you'd want to prevent its buildup?
Excessive plaque buildup is one of the most common problems Dr. Nina Nattiv and the team here at Polished Dental in Hawthorne, California sees in our patients. In order to help you have the healthiest smile possible, we want to talk to you about plaque buildup. Specifically, we want to help you learn how to avoid it, and why you should do so in the first place.
What is plaque?
Plaque is the initial buildup of gunk on your teeth. When you wake up in the morning, or right before bed at night, it's that layer of rough-feeling residue on your teeth. There's no way to stop plaque buildup, which is why you have to brush and floss consistently.
What does it do?
Plaque, if left alone, will turn into a hardened shell of mineral deposit called tartar. That's when you start to have some problems because tartar can cause inflammation of your gums – otherwise known as gingivitis.
Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease, and that's a very serious health issue. You shouldn't let your plaque build to that point. Please note that tartar is impossible to remove on your own.
Avoiding plaque buildup will do wonders for your oral health. Not only does it keep your teeth clean, but it helps keep your breath fresh as well.
If you have any other questions, please call us today at 310-349-1980. We look forward to helping your smile thrive!

For facilities housing thousands of animals and multiple species, animal record management can become complicated and time-consuming for veterinary care staff. Remain within federal regulations to further your research with well-organized and ongoing animal care.
eSirius software effortlessly manages the clinical veterinary care workflow for animal facilities, providing greater visibility into animal health, automating treatment plans, and scheduling facility staff. The result is a higher quality of care that's accurate and easy to report on when it comes to facility audits and inspections.
Every eSirius software solution is backed by support from our dedicated Professional Services team.
Running a facility is equivalent to running a business, and just like any other successful organization, your facility requires standard processes to be productive. Improve your veterinary care process with easier creation and management of treatment plans for individual laboratory animals, groups of animals, and entire rooms.
General or species-specific treatment templates provide consistency in animal care. Automatic activity recurrences and service charges for completed activities free up staff to focus on what matters most – your care of animals.
A delay in receiving critical information about animal welfare poses great risk to a research organization. Instant access to health data on both the individual animal and facility-wide level alleviates this concern. Real-time cage side observations and incident reporting are just a few eSirius features that give veterinarians the details they need to quickly and effectively care for animals.
The relay of time-sensitive information requires that facility staff are in sync – veterinarians, research staff, husbandry staff, and health technicians. eSirius makes input of observations and incidents quick and simple, and automatically sends pertinent information to the attending veterinarian staff for their immediate review. Scheduling tools and an online calendar make it easy to assign treatment activities.
An optional audit-trailing feature, 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, keeps historical health records and electronic signatures on each animal, for convenient reporting when it comes to audits and inspections. Integration with the eSirius Animal Inventory application provides protocol and census data.

Part of the effort was a presidential poll, conducted Sept. 12 to 19. So, where do gamers come down on the race? Of "nearly 100,000" Americans who participated in what Microsoft described as "one of the nation's largest unofficial election polls," it broke down like this: Obama \ Biden: 43 percent McCain \ Palin: 31 percent Undecided: 13 percent Other: 13 percent Also of note, more than 55,000 voter registration forms were downloaded through the service. Xbox Live has more than 12 million members around the world. The majority are in the United States, but Microsoft did not provide data on how many are old enough to vote. By way of background, recall last week's Pew Internet & American Life Project report on teen gamers that noted, "some particular qualities of game play have a strong and consistent positive relationship to a range of civic outcomes."

Why do we need to measure Corruption? 10
While searching for information on the scale of Corruption in India, one is struck by the amazing dearth of any credible information.
There are a whole host of scales and indexes for everything under the sun including the esoteric Business Confidence index, Human Development index, Happiness index to the more mundane such as Inflation, GDP, Government Approval ratings etc.
But for an all important issue like Corruption, the sole measure that exists is the Corruption Perception index maintained by an international NGO, Transparency International. While the index has done immense service to the anti-corruption cause, it is primarily meant for a broad level comparison among countries and is based on perception rather than actual ground level data. Its utility in managing our country's internal affairs is limited. Apart from that, there are no meaningful studies on the geographical spread of Corruption, nor any information on its time line trends, no best practices, not even a common place commission of inquiry on the spread of Corruption.
Overall there are no credible estimates of the quantum or cost of corruption in India. This has led to a situation where a feeble improvement on the Corruption Perception Index off late has hidden an astounding growth in the quantum of Corruption as evident from recent disclosures – Koda scam, I.A.S. raids, 300 Crorepati babus. The monetary estimates of Corruption normally vary from billions of dollars annually to trillions of dollars in accumulated figures. The figures are either based on very broad rules of thumb or are completely a figment of one's imagination. The higher the estimate, the higher is the air of invincibility around it. Most of these figures have a hollow ring to them and are unable to mobilize public opinion to force the hands of the government. We continue to live in a hazy daze where everyone knows that Corruption exists but there is no official confirmation of the same. It allows the government to put their blinkers on and go about their work ignoring the existence of Corruption completely while continuing to bring out new schemes & policies that benefit the intermediaries more than their intended recipients. There is another school of thought that believes that growth in economy will itself deal with Corruption, so we may choose to ignore it till such time we are riding the growth tiger. In the process however, Corruption has grown stronger and stronger. Most importantly, it has led to a situation where Corruption has become a low risk, high return game and is feeding on itself to grow monstrously.
There are strong reasons for developing new metrics to measure Corruption despite its underlying difficulties. Some of them are enumerated below:
1. Primary reason for measuring Corruption is that measurement is the first step towards a cure. We need to measure something to be able control it.
2. The monstrous growth in Corruption can only be dented by a committed public opinion. Such a public opinion can only be built around a systematic measure of Corruption.
3. Behind the facade of anti-corruption, there is a growing tolerance for corruption in our society. It is undesirable, everyone says, but inevitable. Inevitability blunts public opposition. The inevitability stems largely from our inability to measure and track Corruption.
4. The smokescreen of impossibility of measuring Corruption because it is secret is often used to prevent probing on this front. However secrecy hasn't stopped us from probing several other clandestine issues such as Sexual preferences & Political inclinations( Election Surveys, Exit Polls).
5. Corruption has always been treated as aberration of individuals who need to be exposed & punished. Hence very little effort has been made to check institutionalized Corruption which needs measurement on an ongoing basis.
6. Most of our present knowledge of Corruption levels is perception based. Even those perceptions are limited and shaped by new disclosures in scams. We have never pro actively sought to measure Corruption, which alone can deal with the fast mutating problem.
We have come a very long way from a Rs. 62 crore Bofors scam which shook the Central Government and led to a Prime Minister loosing election, to a Rs. 4,000 crore Koda scam where another tainted politician was sworn in as state Chief Minister soon after the scam came to light. How much farther do we need to travel before we act? The time to act is now!!

Marlene MacDonald Ketchen
I have owned The Cabinetry since 2003, when I purchased the business from my uncle, Ed MacDonald. Prior to working in this industry, I lived in Washington, DC for 13 years where I studied at Catholic University, and upon graduation entered the world of politics as a political appointee. Following September 11, 2001 I decided to move home to the South Shore (I grew up in Scituate) and pursue my love of interior design. I joined my uncle's firm, which at the time was located in Hanover and called Kitchen-N-Counters. After a year my uncle retired and I took over ownership. To make it my own, I decided the company needed a new name and fresh identity so I re-branded it as The Cabinetry. Now my work is no longer a chore – I love what I do! It's so satisfying to see how excited my clients are when we do the final walk through of their new kitchen or bath.
Tara L. Callow
Designer & Project Manager
I received my Masters in Interior Architecture from Boston Architectural College after studying Art with a concentration in Fashion & Textiles at California State University, Los Angeles. After receiving my Bachelor's Degree I worked at The Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in Los Angeles as a Curatorial Assistant. I have always enjoyed Interior Design and decided to re-focus my career a few years later to pursue this passion.
I love the way successful architecture and interior design establishes a sense of place by connecting inhabitants to their surroundings allowing them to live and breathe in that space. My hope is to create interior spaces that are a natural extension of the individual and provide them with a comfortable backdrop to live their lives. Professionally I look to create beautiful environments where form and function blend seamlessly so people feel at home.
I have been designing kitchens since 2002, following a number of years climbing the corporate ladder working in travel and technology sales. Desiring something more fulfilling I realized that what I needed was more creativity in my life! Living in New York at the time I decided to return to school and study at The New York School of Interior Design where I pursued a degree in Interior Design. In 2004 I returned home to Massachusetts to continue a career in Kitchen & Bath Design eventually joining Marlene and her team here at The Cabinetry.
I enjoy both the creative and analytical aspect of the design process. I find great satisfaction in being able to execute a client's vision, transform their space and exceed expectations!
I have been designing kitchens since 2001. The first remodel I ever did was my own, as a newlywed – in a tiny little ranch, on a tiny little budget. I fell in love with remodeling, ditched my career in the financial industry, and got a job where they taught me the art of kitchen design. Since then, I've worked in huge stores and tiny specialty shops, and even ran my own company for a few years. Ultimately, I found that running the business wasn't as gratifying as being the designer.
I enjoy meeting with homeowners and hearing about their current kitchen's issues. I take time at the site visit, so I can really get a feeling for the house, the needs of the people in it, and start imagining how we might improve things. My favorite part is presenting my designs to the homeowners so that they can see what I have envisioned for them. I pride myself on solving their design dilemmas – beautifully – and working within their budget. Whether it's more counter space and better storage, a better layout and traffic flow, or simply creating a more inviting living space from a typically utilitarian area, I love improving my client's homes and lives with a great renovation.
As we all know kitchens are the most loved room in a home, so when I earned my degree in Interior Design in 2000 I decided to specialize in kitchen design. It has been the perfect fit because I so enjoy helping my clients create a kitchen that is a happy space where they gather with friends and family and make memories.
I believe that understanding my client's style and taste is key to creating a kitchen that is pleasing to the eye but also customized to meet their needs. By listening closely and asking a lot of questions, I gather the information I need to bring to life a space they'll never want to leave!
I also love the opportunity to turn to other rooms in the home that need updating. Walk-in pantries, mudrooms, bathrooms and laundry rooms are other areas where creative design can make a big difference in the function of a home.
There isn't a day that goes by that I don't love what I do. The best moments in my job are when I'm standing with my clients in their newly remodeled home and they are filled with joy by the end result!
I was raised in Massachusetts by a graphic designer & interior designer/painter. I have been surrounded by art & design my whole life and developed an appreciation not just for the end result, but the whole process of creating. After 11 years as a buyer & designer in the costume jewelry industry I decided I needed a change. I spent 14 years in Mid-Coast Maine renovating a farm house and working in merchandising, marketing & sales. When I moved back to Massachusetts a friend introduced me to Marlene and her team and it was an instant fit. I love the challenges and new experiences that each project and client brings.

New DC and Image Solicits
Because some of them are good and some of them are not good, but all of them made me think of words for me to type about. Let's start with DC, since the internet is all abuzz with their growing hold on a shrinking market (way to go, DC!) and their strange pairing of Morrison and Johns as creative consultants.
Wow. That's beautiful. That's awesome. This is one of the prettiest Cap Marvel pieces I've seen in ages. (It doesn't hurt that he's usually drawn in dour contemplation by stiff artists.) I look at this and get really excited. OH MAN THIS WILL BE AWESOME, I think to myself. And then I see the writer is that guy from the Real World, and, no, not the funny one. The one that writes comics I don't like. Somehow this is Alex's revenge for when I laughed at the idea of Johns writing Hal.
This is just a nice, simple cover. I could go for more Kubert or Heath art, but this might be a good seller in non comic shops. Or not.
Wap wap wap wap wap wap wap wap wap wap wap wap wapwapwapwapwapwap wap UNNNNNGHHHHHH wap wap wap.
Outsiders: A generally well-rendered cover with EXPLOSIONS and NIPPLES and REALLY OUTDATED FACIAL HAIR! So if you like softcore action movies from 1994, here is something you will love.
I know he can turn anything into anything or something, but isn't Black Adam OR Amazo kind of overkill here, let alone both? Jesus.
I just like the way Seth Fisher draws. A lot.
Hey, Bloomberg, maybe you should go on a road trip. AND NEVER COME BACK! OHHHHHH! POLITICS!!!!
The Kev stories don't really do much for me, especially the gay humor stuff, but I have to say this cover is pretty funny.
So basically we have that scene from 80s movies/porn films always where the rich woman (you can tell she's rich because she wears pearls) goes from being uptight (glasses, hair up, a suit) to TOTALLY CRAZY (hair down, no glasses, near nude) except it's a uptightrichhornball superheroine? I'm sure it'll appeal to some folks, but . . .
Huh. I really get the feeling there's more going on here than the first two issues would have me believe. Great cover.
Wap wap wap wap wap wap wap wap awwwww, man. I'll have to wait a while. Looks great, though.

In 2015 it is fair to say we are officially in the Social Media Age. As young professionals, we are the first generation oblivious to a life without social media. As much time we spend with our eyes glued to these forever evolving homepages, why not spend some of those minutes actually bettering ourselves? Instead we tend to show pictures of our friends just to tell someone you guys aren't really friends.
For those of you who may not be very familiar with LinkedIn. It is a social media platform for professionals. People can post blogs, pictures, work experience, community involvement, and more. I personally look at LinkedIn as a living and breathing resume. In my profession, I spend hours a week on the site. I have seen it be a great resource to promote individuals.
If you are someone who doesn't have a LinkedIn or you created an account but never actively update it. Here are a few quick tips to update and keep your profile a great representation of you and your career.
1. Profile pictures: Have a professional photo with suit jacket on. (Not a selfie from Instagram). You can go to Walgreens or the student center and get good photos.Some schools will offer free headshots to students. It will be worth it in the long run.
2.Resume: Have a complete work history on your profile. I would put the same relevant amount of history that is on your hard copy resume. LinkedIn also allows you to attach media to your experience. This is a great opportunity to post videos or photos of projects you were apart of while working that position.
3.Awards Clubs/Endorsements/Recommendation: Update your profile with things you've earned. Professional awards and Community organizations that have played a part in your success. Endorsements are big as well. Add any professional skills that you have in the endorsement section. Also endorse friends and people you have worked with. Having a solid number of skills represented in this section will only add more credibility to your name. You can also get a colleague to recommend you under the recommendations section. Here, someone that knows you well can write a personalized statement about your past working relationship and achievements. Good people to ask for recommendations are professors, co-workers, a boss, and even a good client.
4.Job title: My personal suggestion would be to put your actual work title or profession. Even if you're involved in different things, putting "Entrepreneur" or "Driven Professional" just looks corny to me. I'd say put your dominate "9-5" title as your headliner. The work experience portion should be where you display your experience. If you are a student, I think putting "Student at Blank University" looks fine. Putting your internship title looks good as well. (Blank Intern at Blank Company).
5.Connections: Connect with influencers, parents, family friends that are successful, professors, people you've interviewed with, people you're going to interview with, and successful alumni.(Always put a personal note in the request if you don't know the person well).
LinkedIn is a living and breathing resume that employers are going to look at. Make sure you are taking advantage of any features that are indicative to you. Every young professional that has an able phone, should download LinkedIn period. Just how you might ask a person of interest for a Instagram name. In a relaxed networking setting, I have seen people whip out their phone and add each other on LinkedIn. You more than likely have Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat downloaded. So why not put something in your social media rotation that actually promotes productivity? I suggest anyone older than a freshman in college should have a LinkedIn profile. Don't let a lack of experience deter you!

Pop violinist and Olympic skier Vanessa-Mae has been banned by the International Ski federation for four years.
The sports governing body handed down the punishment after it was revealed that her Olympic qualification results had been manipulated so that she could compete in Sochi.
The 36-year-old British citizen, competed for her native Thailand as Vanessa Vanakorn.
She qualified for the 2014 Olympics just days before the deadline after competing in giant slalom races in Slovenia that had been organised by her management team.
An FIS investigation found several irregularities in the results of the four qualifying races.
Results that gave Mae enough FIS ranking points to participate at the Games.
Mae went on to finish last out of the 67 competitors in Sochi.

As a way to help bring our artistic community together fellow makeup artist Bethany Hood decided to have a challenge. There were no winners and no losers. This was just be a great way for people to show off their talent and creativity. Bethany had an outside source pick an image that we would all have to use as inspiration and design our looks around.
The image that was picked was of a Mandarin Duck. They look like you gave a coloring book of ducks and a 64 color box of crayons to a kid and said go to town. The colors are so vivid and beautiful and blocked off. I had no idea what I was going to do. All I could see was the duck. I didn't want to do feathers or anything birdlike, that much I knew. I struggled with it for a few days. I went back to look at the image of the duck and squinted my eyes really hard to try and take the bird out of the equation.
That seemed to do the trick. I decided to do a very abstract piece using as many different brush strokes and colors as were on the duck. Since I have never liked makeup on myself and the only camera I own is my phone I enlisted the help of some friends. I messaged my friend and great photographer Danny Alexander who I knew would capture the makeup the way I wanted. I then messaged my friend and Model Kaylynn Nyree. I felt her face would be beautiful for this look. While doing the makeup I would step back from time to time to make sure the color balance was right. The main thing I took from the duck was the white around the eyes. I thought that would make for a cool aesthetic. Since it was a makeup challenge the only editing I wanted Danny to do was making the sclera of her eyes black. I was incredibly happy with how it came out.
Seeing all the makeups from all of the other artists was so cool. Everyone did such an amazing job. It was very interesting to see everyone's interpretation of the same image. I cannot thank Bethany enough for doing something like this. It was such a cool way to bring a community together while fostering creativity.

And the funny thing is, I don't know if you'd call that "settling" or "love."

Esker Entertains December 20th and 21st
What a wonderful concert we had here in the school just before the holidays. Every class worked really hard to produce songs from the Musicals for the enjoyment and entertainment of parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts and of course for the children themselves. We had two Esker Entertain concerts,, one for the parents and invited guests on Tuesday and we did it all again for the children in the school on Wednesday. There was a mixture of old and new, much loved, tunes from the Musicals. Songs from The Sound of Music, Beauty and the Beast, Frozen, The Jungle Book, Les Miserables, High School Musical. Our Junior Infants even managed Hakuna Matata from the Lion King, no mean feat I can tell you. We had Zippidity Do Dah from the 1946 Musical Song of the South. We had bell ringers from 6th and our new tin whistle group impressed us all with four tunes. Then there were our brave and talented soloists. There were dancers accompanying our soloist Claudia in a rousing version of Santa Claus is Coming to Town. We had actors and singers accompany Natalie in Frosty the Snowman. We had a beautiful version of Castle in the Cloud from Les Mis. from Fabiana in 2nd Class. Lauretta gave her unique and powerful rendition of 'Do you want to Build a Snowman' from Frozen. Ainhoa sang two beautiful songs including Once Upon a Winter Time and Tade brought the house down with his own blues composition Fruit Salad Blues accompanied by his band KingTade and the Rich Dab Blues Kingdom.
Thank you to all of you parents who turned up to cheer on your children. You were a magnificent audience. Thanks also once again to our wonderful PTA who hosted the parents with tea /coffee and mince pies. A great days work for us all and a great way to send us all off in to the holidays with music in our hearts

Junior and Senior Infants Curriculum Meetings Tuesday 25th 7:30 in the school.
On Tuesday 25th October at 7:30 in the school there will be a meeting for the parents of our Junior Infant classes and of our Senior infant classes. The class teachers will talk to the parents and outline the curriculum for each level. They will explain what is expected of the parents at home in order to fully support the education of your children. Teachers will discuss reading and reading readiness, and they will tell you about Aistear, the Early Childhood Curriculum Framework, which is being followed in all four classes. They will also discuss homework and specifically how best you can help your child at home in these early days of schooling. Gemma, our Home School Liaison teacher and Colette, the Principal, will also address the meetings and be available to answer your questions. This is a general meeting for parents and not a forum for individual progress reports on the children. There will be individual clinic meetings next term during which the teacher will give a report to you the parent on all aspects of your child's education and social development.
Dress Up Friday October 28th
Children are invited to dress up on Friday. Many children like to dress up for the Irish festival of Halloween. Many other children, who do not celebrate Halloween, may like to dress up for the Diwali festival of lights, celebrated by our Sikh and Hindu families in the school which also takes place next weekend on October 30th. Other children might like to dress up in their national costume, in their favourite clothes, in their favourite football team kit, as a princess, or whatever they like. Dress up is entirely optional.
School enrolments: School office on Wednesday mornings between 10:00 and 1:00 pm
Our enrolments for future years are filling up very fast. This year we had some very disappointed parents who couldn't get a place in our junior infants. We are currently taking applications for Junior Infants, 2017. You must apply before February 2017 to be included in our first round of offers. As you know we are operating a common enrolment list with four Educate Together schools in Lucan. The system is explained in detail on our website. Please make sure to read and understand the system. Forms can be downloaded from the website. Don't forget the translate button on our website if you need it.
Notes re absences
Don't forget to include a note in your child's homework journal or in a letter to your child's teacher if your child has been absent. We need a written explanation of all absences.
Outstanding monies
Thanks you to all those parents who have sent in the €95 per child which is requested for school materials, book rental, photocopying etc. Please send the money in to your child's class teacher in an envelope with the child's name on it if you have not already done so. We are also requesting that outstanding swimming money be paid immediately.
Road Safety
I would particularly like to remind all parents of their responsibility for safe driving in and around the school, both at the main entrance and at the Castle Road entrance. Be mindful at all times that there are 425 children coming and going in this school. The Board of Management is extremely concerned about safety. Please be extremely careful to ensure your own child's safety and the safety of all the children in this school. The beat way to improve things would be for more parents to use the Castle Road entrance. It is safer and quicker for the parents who use it at the moment. Be careful also of the children who are attending other schools on Castle Road. As parents we have responsibility to all children.
Please also be careful to be mannerly and careful with our neighbours, particularly if you are parking in their estate. We would like our relationships with our neighbours to be as cordial as possible.
Mind your bikes
Please also note that children's bikes must be locked when they are parked in the school. We cannot guarantee their safety and they are parked there at your own risk. We do not want any situation where a bike is stolen from our grounds.
The PTA held their AGM in the hall recently and it was very well attended. The following people were elected to the committee: Chairperson: Farzana Shah, Vice Chair: Sabaa Katib-Khan Treasurer Fatima and Secretary is Ciaran Brosnan . Welcome to you all and thank you for agreeing to put yourselves forward for this committee. A great big thank you also to Aoife, our outgoing Chairperson and Maureen, Marta and Honor , the outgoing committee.
Information to office: Please update the office with any changes to address or phone numbers. It is vitally important that we have up to date information.
Toy and treat Sale Friday 18th November
Toy and treat sale on Friday. Please look through your house for toys in good condition that that are no longer in use in your house and send them in to the Servery behind the hall any day during the week. We are hoping for lots of 'goodies' on Friday for the children to enjoy. These PTA sales only rarely take place so we can allow the children to enjoy the cakes, buns and sweets for one day. The children absolutely love these sales as you know. Don't forget to send them in with some money on Friday so that they can buy. Costs are very low so anything at all will get something for your child. The PTA use the money colledcted to purchase equipment, toys etc for your children.
Congratulations to PTA for very successful Coin trail for Syria
The coin trail for Syria raised a staggering €1,450.71 for the registered charity Human Appeal. This is the largest amount collected in a coin trail ever in the history of the school so well done to all.The generosity of parents and children will make a difference to suffering families in war torn Syria. A very particular thank you to the parents who counted the coins, and transported them to the bank . A monumental task indeed
Coin trail for Syria
Today, representatives from Human Appeal, a charity working on the ground in Syria, came to our school and spoke to our senior assembly. The PTA is organising a coin trail for the charity and the assembly was told about how their money could help to alleviate some of the many difficulties facing children and families in war torn Syria. We have created a map of Syria upstairs in the school and children are invited to fill in the map with the coins that they bring in from home. We are asking the children to do jobs for their parents to earn money to bring in to the coin trail. All proceeds will be given to the registered charity Human Appeal.
Maths week
'At the end of the day, the most overwhelming key to a child's success is the positive involvement of parents' - Jane D. Hull.
Parents, children and teachers well done on a very successful Maths week! What a week we have had here at Esker ETNS. This was such a good week to show the children why they need maths every day and not just in the classroom or maths book.
Children explained to me this week that we need our numeracy skills when we go shopping, travelling on the bus, going to the cinema and even sharing a pizza with our friends.
Our week was full of maths stations, trails and code cracking. We had so many parents come to join us in every class which made it extra fun.
Junior Infants - Maths Stations. Junior infants showed their parents what they have learned this year by making patterns, sorting, counting, matching and building.
Senior Infants – Maths Stations. Parents came in every day this week to help Senior Infants with their counting, netbooks, patterns, matching and addition sums.
1st Class – Maths 4 Fun session with parents. The children played lots of card and dice games with their parents.
2nd Class – Maths Packs. Parents were invited into school to talk to Gemma about our maths pack. This was a pilot scheme we ran last year which proved successful, so we will continue to run it. Every child was given a maths pack containing: cards, counters,dice, snakes and ladders, a hundred square, language, symbol and number cards. Once a week the teacher will give 'maths pack' homework. The parents all agreed to play with their children to develop their numeracy skills.
3rd – 6th Class – Maths Trails. Parents were invited into school to take a team of children from their child's class on a maths trail around the school. This was a great example of using our 'maths eyes' looking at the environment to find shapes, angles, counting, dividing, using fractions and measuring.
A HUGE thank you to all of our parents who took part this week. We could not have run the week without you, and looking at the children's faces they loved having you in. We are doing lots of work on problem solving skills with the children, we are focusing on maths language and turning this language into mathematical sentences, and solving.
Well done everybody. Please check out our gallery for more photos of our Maths week.
Colette says a great big congratulations to Gemma on our most successful and best attended maths week ever.

PTA Annual General Meeting Thursday 29th September 2016 9:30am
The PTA is holding its Annual General Meeting on Thursday 29th September at 9:30 in the school hall. The officers of the PTA, including our Chairperson, Aoife Linnane, are stepping down from their committee duties and are looking for other parents to take up the mantle. The officers on the committee have been involved for three or more years and would like to pass the baton on to new , enthusiastic parents. I know that they are willing to help out the new committee and to remain involved in PTA activities. All parents are welcome to come to the meeting, to hear about the work of the committee and hopefully to help out in some of the many activities organised during the year. We. would all like to thanks the outgoing committee for all their hard work on behalf of all the children in the school.
HSE Hearing tests for senior Infants
The Health Service Executive is organising hearing screening tests for our Senior Infants this week, on Wednesday and Thursday, the 27th and 28th September. This is a simple hearing test and there is no need for parents to be in attendance. If there is a problem with your child's hearing, you will be contacted by the HSE and a follow up appointment will be made.
Health and well-being week
Last week was Health & Well being week in our school. Have a read below of what Gemma had to say about this very successful initiative for pupils, teachers, other staff and parents. All were involved in this active and mindful week.
"It was a chance for us to be mindful of our surroundings, concentrate on our mental & physical wellbeing, connect with our friends, and take a chance to be thankful of what we have rather than looking at what we don't have.
Activities throughout the week included: Go noodle in the class, chair yoga, 6th class yoga, class to 1km walks, healthy smoothies made by our parents, sensory walks, mindful eating, gratitude lists, and daily brain breaks with relaxing music and a thought of the day to focus on.
The parents also took part and relaxed with yoga and kept fit with a 5km walk. Thank you to all the mums who spent the morning chopping, blending and serving our healthy smoothies. Also a big thank you to Carambola for the donation of fruit and vegetables. Part of staying well is staying connected with friends. We had a 'getting to know you' coffee morning on Friday. It was great to meet new friends and to re connect with familiar ones too.
The week is over, but the message stays the same. Take time to take care of your health and yourself. Look after your body by eating the right foods and by exercising, looking after your mind by relaxing and staying in contact with friends, and if you ever have a worry share it with someone and always ask for help!
A big thank you to everybody involved!

Williams, 1982
I bought this game from a fella in Huntsville, Alabama. I bought it originaly for my fiancee. She loves Superman. It was a reason to buy another game, and one thing I learned, any reason to get another game is a good reason! :-) The game was a jamma converted Robotron. Thank God that the cabinet was 80% intact, the monitor glass was still there. The hard part is that the control panel is all messed up and has a Superman overlay, which isnt bad, but im ready to change it back to Robotron. That will be kinda hard since the wiring is all hacked up for Jamma. BUt I have all the pcbs that are needed and a marquee and new overlay ready to go, I just need to get that game in my new house. Ok, update, 7/11/01....I finished the reconversion back, I used the jamma wires , but the game is only set up for Robotron, so its a dedicated game again with different colored wires. The game powered up fine the first day while I was still rewiring, and the next day it died. Im not sure what happened. In the meantime I started to work on the control panel, I filled in the holes with Bondo and did a lot of sanding. I applied the new overlay and printed up a instruction card for the bezel and it looks great! My Galaga went through the same process, asthetically it was 100%, just needed a brain. 7/27/01 Bart Huffman is the man! He came through with a working cpu pcb and soundcard and new leaf joysticks!!! With the new blue T-moulding, its just a dream come true!! WOW! If I must say so myself :-)
ABOVE>>Here was the Superman conversion as of a week ago, now its back to its old self again..
Above is a picture of how the gameroom was a complete mess while I was working on the restoration. Im starting to get good at this kinda thing. If you can, notice the birds nest of wires, man that was a headache!
Well here is Robotron 100% finished. Thanks Bart!! Dont hesitate to buy anything from him! Look how he helped me turn the jamma monster into a peice of art!!

where I'll be ... not here, but somewhere/
This isn't going to be a long post. More like an update than anything else.
October wasn't a fun month for me. I had a root canal in one tooth and a different tooth broke. My dentist, on the other hand, had a marvelous month. Sometimes that's the way the enamel crumbles.
The good news is that the recurring sinus infection that I've been suffering from for the last year is finally gone, because the infection didn't really come from my sinuses--it came from the abscess in my upper tooth. Not fun doesn't always equal bad.
Murder Cat is thriving. Unlike my darling Macavity, who I still miss, Murder Cat thinks wolf spiders are the greatest toys ever and great fun. Thus far, she has killed around seven wolf spiders, four beetles, and two flies. It has taken about six months, but she has finally decided that she likes cuddles, too. She is also determined to fight the laptop for lap supremacy, which is very nice in the mornings.
I have a book I have to write.
In addition to the book, I am reading a novella for a friend in order to critique her work. She is a wonderful person and a fabulous writer, so helping her is both a pleasure and an honor. She deserves one hundred percent of my attention. I've also been asked to review an anthology of novellas and a novel, both of which have rather tight turnaround times. Like critiquing my friend's novella, these are tasks that I enjoy and am looking forward to doing.
I am pulling back from both Twitter and Facebook for a period of time. For my author friends, I'm part of a group on Slack, and if I can get the hang of Slack, I will be moving even more of me off Facebook. Until further notice, I'll be spot-checking both the Twitter and Facebook feeds to make sure they don't get hacked, but that's about it. I will not be checking Facebook chat or Messenger unless it is a family member.
I'll be posting to the blog and also through my newsletter. If you scroll up, you can see where to insert your email address for your preference. Blog posts will continue to me more numerous than newsletters, and these will also roll through my Twitter and Facebook feeds as always.
If you are participating in NaNoWriMo, I've set up a feed over there. I am there as TFrohock. There is a huge chunk of words in the my feed (50,765 to be exact). That is the first three-quarters of the novel that I'm working on. I want to complete it in November, but there are a lot of words for me to unpack, so there is that.
If you need me, contact me via email.

In Excel VBA as I have shown previously you can push data between 2 or more arrays. There have been a glut of examples on this website where I have moved data from one array to another. There have even been examples where I have moved only certain columns into a single array. The following method with you the INDEX formula within VBA to move data from one array to another but only move the columns which are specified. With the following method of the 6 column array (Cols A – F) only columns A, C and E will be moved from the first variant, to the second variant. The code looks a little as follows.
Sub ReadCertainColstoArray() 'Read only Cols 1,3,5 into an Array.
Dim ar as Variant
Dim var as Variant
ar = [A1:F15]
var = Application.Index(ar, [row(1:15)], Array(1, 3, 5))
Range("J1:L" & UBound(var)) = var 'Output the Array.
End Sub
The variant (ar) holds the initial data and the variant(var) accepts only columns 1, 3, 5 as stated in the Index line.
var = Application.Index(ar, [row(1:15)], Array(1, 3, 5))
So the index is doing all the heavy lifting so the only data flowing through is the ones specified (1,3,5).
The final part of the equation is to output the variant (var). This is done with the following line.
Range("J1:L" & UBound(var)) = var
It is based on the size of the variable (var). The upper bound of the Variable (15 rows) will be the cells which are filled. The following Excel file outlines the procedure with some data.

A recent study published in Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene seeks to determine which diets are most efficient for our environment. The study, titled Carrying Capacity of U.S. Agricultural Land: Ten Diet Scenarios, aims, more specifically, to examine the "carrying capacity" of ten distinct diets.
The authors argue that the best way to examine a given diet's environmental efficiency is to examine its "carrying capacity"- defined as, "persons fed per unit land area."
The ten diets assessed were the following:
- The "Baseline" diet (the current American food consumption pattern).
- The "Positive Control" diet (same as above but with fewer calories from added fats and sweeteners).
- The "100% Healthy Omnivorous" diet (scenario in which all Americans exactly follow the current USDA dietary guidelines).
- The "80% Healthy Omnivorous" diet (Americans substitute 20% of the USDA dietary guidelines for more eggs and dairy products, in place of meat).
- The "60% Healthy Omnivorous" diet (substitute 40%).
- The "40% Healthy Omnivorous" diet.
- The "20% Healthy Omnivorous" diet.
- The "Ovolacto Vegetarian" diet (no meat, includes eggs and dairy).
- The "Lacto Vegetarian" diet (no meat, no eggs, includes dairy).
- The "Vegan" diet (no meat, no eggs, no dairy).
Below, one can see the types of foods and their quantities that are ingested in each of the ten diets outlined above:
According to the results of the study, it seems that reducing meat intake does have a positive correlation with increased carrying capacity:
More specifically, it appears that the "Lacto Vegetarian" diet had the highest carrying capacity. Interestingly, the "Vegan" diet has a carrying capacity that is somewhere in between the 40% and 60% "Healthy Omnivorous" diets. From this, one can conclude that, contrary to claims perpetually made by vegans, their diet is:
- Not necessarily better for the environment than certain diets which incorporate various degrees of meat consumption.
- Worse than vegetarian diets which include some animal products, namely dairy.
However, there are a couple of caveats to this study which would make it far from conclusive.
Firstly, there is the methodology of the paper, which assumes that the United States is a closed system- i.e. one in which no food importation occurs from abroad. The paper states that this was done in order to, "conduct a complete accounting of all land needed to meet total food needs and thus, calculate carrying capacity."
This problem alone renders the study quite problematic, as the trading of foodstuffs between nations could greatly alter results on a global basis. If the USA's land, for example, were better suited to cropland, while another country's land was better suited to grazing, then trade between the two countries could result in a completely different conclusion in terms of U.S. (and global) environmental impacts of various diets.
Secondly, there is the issue of variations of food sources within each diet. As the study itself notes, "for example, diets containing meat could vary in terms of the proportion of servings from beef, pork, and poultry."
This point is vital, as there is already some evidence that the production of different types of meats have very different impacts on carbon emissions:
It is important to state that measuring carbon emissions of various different meats is clearly not the same as analyzing the carrying capacity of U.S. agricultural land. But the point I wish to make is merely that the specific type of meat being produced could considerably skew the ranking of the environmental impacts of these ten diets.
All in all, due to the aforementioned limitations of this study, it would be difficult to draw any sweeping conclusions, although there will certainly be a temptation to infer that the cultivation of meat is categorically harmful. More research is clearly needed at this time for us to understand the profoundly complex relationship between diet and environment.

I just received word that the National Geographic Society will be funding a small expedition to Glacier Bay to attempt to rediscover one of the most seminal plot networks in ecology - the primary succession plots of William Skinner Cooper.
In 1916, William Skinner Cooper sailed into Glacier Bay, Alaska, and found a way to look through time. Glacial recession had exposed bedrock, some centuries before and some recently. Cooper knew that he could utilize the variety of landscape ages to study how ecosystems develop through time by moving through the region, from newly exposed areas to 200+ year areas. Through these areas, he pioneered our understanding of vegetation succession (species change through time), a foundational concept in biology. Cooper is known as the "Father of Glacier Bay" due to his efforts, and a founder of the science of ecology.
2016 marks a full century since Cooper installed these historic plots, where he made detailed measurements of species composition, size, and densities. Unfortunately, their locations are lost; however, paper maps (hand-drawn by Cooper) do remain in archives. This work will fund the rediscovery, remeasurement, and revival of this important piece of scientific history at the 100 year anniversary of his exploratory work. Each location will be mapped (e.g., tree locations) using 10cm GPS so current and future scientists can monitor these sites, among the longest repeat-measured plots in North America. Results will be published in both scientific and popular literature, and maps and educational materials made available through the National Parks Service. These sites, by virtue of their long history, significant location, and exposure to rapid temperature increases due to climate change are critical to both documenting our past and monitoring change into the future.

What makes Google Analytics so great?
Well, not only is it a great way to monitor how much traffic your site is getting and where it's coming from, but if you use it properly you can gain a wealth of other information including your bounce rate, most popular pages or articles, and even your conversion rates!
The trouble is, it can be confusing. There are tons of features that seem hopelessly hidden amongst a wide variety of options, and the majority of people don't even know they're there, much less how to use them.
Let's learn about some of the most important features of Google Analytics, and how you can use those features to improve your traffic, conversions and more!
The first thing you need to do is get a Google Analytics account, if you don't already have one:
You can use an existing Google account. Just sign in and press "Sign up" you're ready to start using Google Analytics.
Next, you'll need to add a site to Analytics. To do this, you can take a look at this great guide Google has already made for you:
Analytics with WordPress
If you're using WordPress, and a great number of sites are these days, you can use a nifty little plugin to make it easier to install Analytics on your pages. This is especially helpful if your theme doesn't already have a specific place to add your Analytics code.
The Five Report Suites
There are five report suites inside Google Analytics that will each offer you different types of information. These five different report times include:
- Real Time
- Audience
- Acquisition
- Behavior
- Conversions
Some sites may not use all of these reports. For example, if you're not selling anything, you may not need to use the conversions suite. (However, it's still useful for tracking conversions to your email list and such.)
- Realtime: Real-time reports let you know what is happening with your site right now. You can find out what is happening on your website at the moment you're viewing the report. This will give you live information about how much traffic you're getting and what pages people are currently viewing.
- Audience: The audience reports give you information about the people visiting your site. They let you know their demographics such as age and gender, their interests, where they are located, what type of devices and browser they use, etc.
- Acquisition: Acquisition reports tell you where your traffic is coming from. It gives you information such as keywords used to find you and links they came from. This will help you determine which are your most effective keywords and marketing channels.
- Behavior: The behavior reports let you know information such as which pages people are viewing, where they go, how fast your pages load, etc. This will tell you which articles are most popular, and what you could do to make people enjoy your content more.
- Conversions: The conversion reports will let you know how effective your site is at making sales or getting email signups or getting users to take whatever other action you'd like them to take
Those are the five different types of reports and what type of information you can get from each one. Ideally, you'll be using each of these different types of reports in order to take full advantage of the power offered by Google Analytics.
Basic Date Range Reports
Using date ranges can help you in many ways. It will allow you not only to see your traffic over a time period, but also compare it to other time periods in the past to see if your traffic is growing or shrinking, and how certain events affected your traffic.
If you look at the top of your screen while logged into Analytics, you'll notice a date range. You can set this to pretty much any date range you want in order to see historical data and compare your information to times in the past.
This is useful for figuring out if your traffic is growing or shrinking, when you might have had spikes in traffic to figure out what may have contributed to the spikes, etc.
- You can learn a lot about how to increase your traffic and conversions by using these reports.
You can also compare data easily by selecting "Compare to" in order to select two different time periods in order to get a comparison that will show you different lines to let you compare historical data.
Here's how to do it:
Just tick the "Compare to" box after you click your date range, and then select the time period you want to compare it to.
Note: You can do this while viewing a single site, OR while viewing an overview of your entire account at once to give you a snapshot of how all your sites are doing.
Here's what it looks like to view your main page with this:
And here is what it looks like to view a single site:
If you look at the bottom of your chart, you can add an annotation. This will help you add notes to remind you in the future what happened on certain dates.
For example, you might add notes such as:
- Ran Facebook ad, traffic up 28%
- Launched new website
- Added article on Pinterest, traffic doubled overnight
- Site hacked, traffic dropped by 75% for several days
Not only will this help you figure out what kind of marketing and such is working, but if you sell your site later, you'll be able to remember what happened at various times in order to explain traffic discrepancies to potential buyers.
Date ranges make it easy to get an idea of how your traffic is growing or shrinking. Be sure to remember to add those annotations to major traffic events so you remember what caused them.
Goals: Goals are a function of Analytics that is dramatically underused. Many people don't even know goals exist in Analytics, and others know little about them or don't know how to use them.
Goals can be very helpful. Goals will let you track the effectiveness of your sales funnel, your squeeze page, your ads, etc.
Here's how goals work:
- Traffic comes in from a specific traffic source
- You have a specific action you want people to take
- Users take that action
- You now know where the traffic comes from, how many people saw the offer, and how many people took the desired action
To set up a goal, open Analytics and go to Admin at the top of the page. Then click Goals on the left hand menu. Select New Goal, then select Custom. Click Next Step.
Choose a name for your goal. It can be whatever you want, but be sure it will be easy for you to remember what you're tracking with it.
You might name it something like "Squeeze Page For Weight Loss Report", for example.
There are several types of events you can track:
- Destination – User ends up at a specific page
- Duration – User is on page for a specific length of time
- Page/Screens per session - User views at least X number of pages
- Event – User views a video, for example
Let's say your ultimate goal is to get users to make it to the download page for your lead magnet, which happens after they opt in to your list. You'd choose a Destination goal, then set your value to the URL of your thank you page.
If you'd like more detailed information about setting up all the different types of goals, here is an in-depth tutorial from Analytics:

Researchers at Princeton University say baby talk, or 'motherese', plays a vital role in a child's development, helping them grasp the complexities of language and connect with the world around them. The Princeton Baby Lab researchers have found the timbre — or tonal quality — of baby talk to be the same across different languages.

Minnesota Vikings fans can rejoice after quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was cleared to return to practice.
The Minnesota Vikings' quarterback issues have been crazy over the past year. It all began when starting quarterback Teddy Bridgewater tore his ACL and dislocated his knee during a non-contact practice back in August 2016. Many assumed it was a career-ending injury to a young, impressive career for the Vikings quarterback.
After playing quarterback carousel, the ride may finally be over in three weeks. Bridgewater has been cleared to practice according to Chris Mortensen. After news of Bridgewater being cleared, Ian Rapoport had a bigger update.
The Vikings have dealt with even more quarterback issues while Bridgewater was hurt. They traded their 2017 first-round pick and 2018 fourth-round pick to the Philadelphia Eagles for Sam Bradford, who has dealt with a knee injury this season, giving the job to Case Keenum.
Now with the news of their former starting quarterback returning soon, the Vikings season is very much alive. While their star rookie running back Dalvin Cook tore his ACL, the Vikings have been still been able to win games without him and Bridgewater returning is the best news this team could hear.
Bridgewater brings back mobility to the quarterback position. Now Bridgewater won't rush for 1,000 yards, he can still lead teams to have a spy on him, leaving one less defender to stop the play.
The Vikings are already 4-2 without Bridgewater, this is the best possible record they could have for him as he returns. If Bridgewater returns this week, it would be home against the Baltimore Ravens. If he returns next week, he will debut this season in London against the Cleveland Browns.
The Ravens just lost to the Chicago Bears in overtime and the Browns are 0-6 and are looking like the same old Browns. With Aaron Rodgers possibly out for the season, the Packers could be out of the race in the NFC North. The Detroit Lions are dealing with multiple injuries and have fallen down to 3-3 after starting the season 2-0. The Chicago Bears seem to have some life with Mitchell Trubisky at quarterback.

Tamron 28-300mm cheap lens
Another image using the bargain basement Tamron 28-300mm lens. Nice and sharp although slow shutter speed is evident from the ball's motion blur. I was so fixated on fast aperture lenses had been ignoring these versatile, cheap former film camera lenses without stabilisation. Shutter was high enough in this shot to counteract shake but not totally stop motion.
Jamie Morris belts a shot in for Carradale but fails to score earlier this month.

A Kintyre Express ferry, heading to Ireland, disappears into the haar covering Campbeltown Loch on Friday April 20, 2018. Taken with my second-hand, 28-300mm Tamron non-vr lens, £59 and part-exchange of my rough 50mm/1.8 Nikon, have a 50mm/1.4 manual workhorse.
Provided a minimum aperture of f8 is used the Tamron, made at least 20 years ago for film cameras is sharp. Just need good light and a steady hand.

Is Greg's Liberty Grill the same place as Greg's Steak-N-Shrimp?
Yes, it's the same location, same owners, same patriotic motif, just a new name. Soon to be celebrating 13 years in business, owners Greg and Wendy Beer are continuing, as the slogan on their menu and sign says, "an American dining tradition."-----

Aleksandr Dugin: Will the Conflict in Syria Lead to World War III?
Primary tabs
The video with English subtittles.
Philosopher Aleksandr Dugin discusses the current conflict in Syria in a geopolitical context along with its regional nuances and potential outcomes. He frames the conflict as the confrontation between the supporters of a unipolar model of the world (United States and the Western Bloc via NATO as well as regional Arab players), which seek to depose Bashar al-Assad, and the countries in favor of a multipolar world (Russia, China, and Iran), which support Syrian sovereignty and the will of its citizens.

Chinese traditional brush painting has developed continuously over a period of more than 5000 years. It is the most simple and expressive visual art form. Main tools are included brush, ink and rice paper. Composition and space is the most important element for the mind set. Seal and calligraphy is the final touch by express the theme and views on art and life.
I designed this 6 sessions program for middle school students to have fundamental understanding of this art form. Through domesticated native figures from China, such as bamboo tree, wild orchid flower and panda bear, students learned brush techniques and basic strokes. Students had great fun played with the ink and create their conceptual express art.

This 16-Year-Old Japanese Girl Might Be The Greatest Drummer We've Ever Seen – VIDEO
Senri Kawaguchi is a 16-year-old from Japan who is better at playing the drums than you, me, and possibly Tommy Lee. I can't be a 100% on that last one though, because I haven't seen her lash it out while rotating 360 degrees inside a suspended metal cage (that's right Kawaguchi, your ass just got challenged by me, and maybe also Tommy Lee but I won't commit on his behalf because he is a grown man who can speak for himself. Tommy, if you're down, hit me up because a drum-off between you two would be amazing.)
In a video making the rounds (is there anyway that exists to be all "look at this thing from the internet" without sounding like a total n00b? There isn't, is there?) Kawaguchi demonstrates her killer drum skills. She is impressive enough that when the video was over I had to quietly go stand outside and stare at the sky wondering why I was put on this earth. So you know, just the usual. It used to be that I found child prodigies charming. But now that I am over 30, I just quietly resent them and all of their gifts. *Pauses to shake fists at the heavens*
As much as I resent talented children, I love playing the drums, or at least, the idea of it. I vowed a couple of years back to learn how to play them like a boss and rock Brooklyn's socks off. Sadly, this did not occur. My lessons were cut short when I got a massive cyst on wrist that require surgical hacking-out. Then I just never went to it. Also they did not let me keep the cyst. So it was an all around bummer. If I'd at least been given a small piece of my own insides to preserve and display in a jar to all my house guests, that would have been at least something.

Mutual fund net returns are computed without doing any adjustment for the loads. In other words, the fund returns to the CRSP mutual fund database are pre-load returns. There is no obvious way to calculate the post-load returns with the current data items from this database, as I believe a lot more information is needed to do that, such as information on the amount of money coming into the fund or leaving the fund in each particular month, which would help somebody amortize the loads.

Gas Station Robbers Run Out of Gas
Troopers caught 29-year-old Lonnie Meckwood of Carbondale and 51-year-old Phillip Weeks of Tunkhannock after their getaway car ran out of gas while they were trying to escape late Monday night.
They're accused of using a knife to rob a clerk at the Quickway Convenience Store in Kirkwood, 80 miles south of Syracuse near the New York-Pennsylvania border. The clerk was not hurt.
Police found the pair about a mile away. Their car was on the side of the road. They're being held in the Broome County Jail without bail.

Listening to what people were saying wasn't even important. But it was important to look as if you were listening to what people were saying. Actually, listening to what people are saying, to me, interferes with looking as if you were listening to what people are saying.Errol Morris
FameRank: 5
"Errol Mark Morris" is an American film director. In 2003, The Guardian put him seventh in its list of the world's 40 best active directors. In 2003, his film The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara won the 76th Academy Awards/Academy Award for Academy Award for Documentary Feature/Best Documentary Feature.If you enjoy these quotes, be sure to check out other famous directors! More Errol Morris on Wikipedia.
Truth is a pursuit, it's a quest. And proof is certainly in the pudding in this particular instance, because the film, and the evidence accumulated in making the film, led to this man's release from prison. And that's hardly ever happened, if it's happened at all, in any other film that I can think of.Errol Morris

THE baby humpback whale stranded in a Sydney waterway will be euthanased some time tonight, wildlife authorities say.
The decision was made at a meeting of NSW Parks and Wildlife Service workers, scientists and representatives of other agencies early tonight.
Rescuers have opted against making another attempt to shepherd the starving 4.5 metre whale calf into open water.
Affectionately named Colin, the calf is believed to be about two or three weeks old.
It was first spotted on Sunday, nuzzling up to a yacht in the northern Sydney waterway, apparently searching for its mother.
A veterinary report late this afternoon found the animal was in a very poor condition and would probably not live through tonight.The mammal is suffering from previous shark inflicted injuries, is experiencing breathing difficulties and its flukes are hanging down.

Why in the name of Jesus?
Victoria Lai, CONTRIBUTING WRITER
"In Jesus' Name, Amen."
For some, this phrase is meaningless. For others, it's merely a routine ending to prayer. And still for others, it's the single most powerful way to plead with God. In this article, I will unpack this phrase through the following question: why do Christians end their prayers with the name of Jesus? Continue reading "Why in the name of Jesus?"

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 18.104.22.168
For example, do such users prefer a lot of top level categories or few?
Do they abhor -- as I do -- having to drill down far for a very categorized subcategory, or do they prefer large categories with many listings?
Do they use the middle of the alphabet -- say J, K, L -- of alphabars?
Do they mostly use the search box, or do they drill down to the category they want?
Thanks for any help in this.
joined:Mar 3, 2003

We don't present a prominent Browse by Categories anymore. When we did, less than 1% used it. But this depends on how you present it. Other IYPs list some major localities and major headings on their home page. We don't.
We have a discreet Browse by State, where they can browse headings by locality, then ultimately get a list of business names which show the A page by default. However, they choose the desired locality first and often a small suburb might not have many listings for a given heading, e.g. Abattoirs.
Nonetheless, as the search box usually brings the user into range, they can further refine and sort in many ways.
One size doesn't fit all and the only way to determine what's right for your site is to analyze the log file and see how it's being used the most.
Additionally, consider using a visitor heatmap to see how people are using your pages because design can vastly impact usage.

Statistical process control readiness in the food industry: development of a self-assessment tool
Abdul Halim Lim, Sarina and Antony, Jiju (2016) Statistical process control readiness in the food industry: development of a self-assessment tool. Trends in Food Science & Technology, 58. pp. 133-139. ISSN 0924-2244; ESSN: 1879-3053
Abstract / Synopsis
Background: The increasing pressure from the customers, governmental regulations and fierce market competition forced food companies to pursue powerful quality improvement technique. Although Statistical Process Control is widely known for its effectiveness in process control, many food companies faced difficulties to adopt such technique, where being in the state of not ready has always been the reason. There has been a debate about the importance of deciding the state of readiness of a company to initiate their CI techniques such as SPC towards the successful implementation and sustainability of such technique.Scope and approach: This paper emphasises the importance of SPC readiness towards its implementation in the food industry and determines its factors. The SPC readiness factors were identified based on the current literature review and complemented with a three-round Delphi study involving the SPC experts (academics, industry and consultants). Key findings and conclusion: The SPC readiness factors identified are top management support, sense of urgency, measurement system, employees involvement and organisational culture readiness. The developed conceptual self-assessment readiness tool enables food practitioners to identify the current state of organisational readiness and facilitate the companies to plan strategic changes and preparation activities for the adoption of SPC in their businesses.
