Saturday's Symphony program elicits range of emotions
06. Apr. 2008 – The Spokane Symphony concert Saturday began in sadness and ended in triumph.
Conductor Eckart Preu began the concert with an unscheduled tribute to Bernard M. "Kop" Kopczynski, a Spokane builder and longtime symphony and art supporter who died Thursday. Preu chose Variation No. 9 from Edward Elgar's "Enigma" Variations. And the orchestra played the work with beautiful warmth of tone and quiet passion. The glow of the acoustics further enhanced the performance. To begin the official program, Preu turned to a more recent British master, Benjamin Britten, and the "Four Sea Interludes" from his opera "Peter Grimes." Preu gave the interludes the sweep of a "sea symphony" reflecting a range of moods from a quiet "Dawn" to a fearsome "Storm." The orchestra made Britten's sea glimmer with the well played interplay of flutes and harp, and characterized its depth and vastness with resonant brass and low strings.
Among the most striking touches was the intrusion of ghostly fragments of dance music during the violent "Storm" finale.
One of the great pleasures of listening to and writing about music over a long period is watching the development of soloists who return at several points in their careers.
Anne Akiko Meyers first performed in Spokane as a 25-year-old in 1995. She played Prokofiev's Violin Concerto No. 1, the same work she played Saturday. She had given the concerto "a rest" before returning to it recently. Her virtuosity showed Meyers to have lost none of her youthful luster, but those years of experience have led her to explore the two sides of Prokofiev's style more boldly.
She brought even more sensuous warmth to the lyric theme that introduces the concerto. That theme's return near the end of the concerto, embellished with a chain of trills, was a magic moment.
These days, Meyers takes more risks with Prokofiev's risky music. The vigorous succession of sharply detached down-bow strokes in the Scherzo gave a gritty, mocking irony to the passage. And there was a fleeting moment in the first movement where Meyers, unaccompanied, played a succession of increasingly dissonant intervals, like a chess player contemplating a bold move, before pouncing into the movement's headlong rush to its endgame.
Meyers rewarded a standing ovation with an unusual encore, an unaccompanied version of Harold Arlen's "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," ending with her own tasteful improvised decorations on the return of the song's chorus.
After intermission, Preu introduced Sibelius' Symphony No. 5 with a brief, humorous description of the composer's approach to symphonic writing: He creates a background of sustained or slowly changing chords to bind things together, makes a middle ground of some fidgety fast notes ("like thousands of little trolls," Preu said) to keep the action moving, and introduces mosaic fragments that eventually assemble themselves into long-lined melody.
Then Preu and the orchestra showed exactly how that worked in splendid performance of the Symphony No. 5. There were many fine solos and performances by whole sections of the orchestra, such as Lynne Feller-Marshall's bassoon solo in the first movement and the long, carefully controlled crescendos from the horns in the second movement.
But it was the orchestra as a whole that made the work a triumphal ending to the evening. The final six hammer blows that conclude the work might well have brought the audience to its feet. Perhaps we were just too stunned.

Samford University will host computer science pioneer Rosalind Picard for the 2018 J. Roderick Davis Lecture Oct. 4 at 7 p.m. in Wright Center Concert Hall. The free public event is cosponsored by the university's Howard College of Arts and Sciences and Center for Science and Religion.
Picard–inventor, electrical engineer, and founder and director of MIT's Affective Computing Research Group–once thought she did not want to have anything to do with emotion, but gradually learned that it could improve the future of artificial intelligence (AI). At Samford, she will describe her journey through a series of stories about building technology to help people manage stress, illness and autism, inventing sensors to measure emotion, making life-changing discoveries and facing the challenging question of what it means to be human. Picard also will meet with select groups of Samford students.
"With each potential AI advance, there are very important ethical, relational and technological questions to answer, and every academic discipline must be involved," said Samford associate dean and math professor Emily Hynds. "We are thrilled to bring a scholar of Picard's caliber and reputation to speak about complex ideas and technologies that impact every one of us."
Josh Reeves, a leader of Samford's Center for Science and Religion, said the center is cosponsoring the event, with support from The Issachar Fund, because "a key part of the center's role is to promote conversations, particularly from a Christian perspective, on the issues raised by modern science and technology." Contrary to popular stereotypes, the center is committed to the idea that science and religion are not inherently incompatible. In fact, the event organizers noted, Picard's Samford lecture originated with her recent presentation at the Vatican.
The J. Roderick Davis Lecture Series
The annual J. Roderick Davis Lecture is Samford University's premier public arts and sciences event. Each year's topic connects with important issues, current events, and historical milestones that reflect Samford's commitment to a broad liberal arts education.
The lecture series honors J. Roderick Davis, a 1958 Howard College alumnus and later the dean of Samford's Howard College of Arts and Sciences. When Davis retired from his office in 2001, his colleagues honored him by establishing a lecture series in his name that would bring to campus recognized scholars and public intellectuals.

Living a healthy lifestyle has to start from your kitchen. Without having an eco-friendly place to make your food green, and to enjoy your meals, it will be hard to imagine the rest. Fortunately, there is no right or wrong choice when trying to make your kitchen greener, the only choice you have to make is which things can stay, and which need to be upgraded.
Buy durable cookware
Preparing food in your new lovely kitchen should be about enjoying yourself and making it with love. Though, unless you have cookware which will last a long number of years, it will be hard. You should not be spending most of your time pondering why your skillets and pots are in a bad shape, rather, get yourself a few eco-friendly ones so that you can cook like a chef.
Try to save energy
Changing the appliances in your kitchen will be a bit of investment, but, in the long run, it will be worth it. However, before you go and buy new appliances, make sure to check if they are energy efficient so that you can really save some money, and that you can help protect the environment. On the other hand, it is advisable to change your kitchen gadgets every now and then, so that you can follow energy demands, and that you do not waste a lot of energy.
What source of energy to use?
Even though electricity is widely available and cheap, it is not always the best solution to have in your kitchen. You will have to make some changes if you want not only to lower the costs, but be greener. Using gas could be your answer, but before you sign up, it is best to view the pros and cons for gas and electric stoves, so that you can decide what is better for your situation. Keep in mind that even though both types of stoves are around the same price range, you will have to think in terms of longevity.
Be careful what you eat
You need to take a good look at your fridge and make changes if you find that you are eating too much meat. After all, you need to have a good balanced meal every day to stay healthy. And, on the other hand, to stay green, you will have to invest in sustainable ingredients. But, if you manage to grow your own vegetable garden, you will be able to harvest your own greens as well.
Avoid drinking tap water
Clean water might be coming out of your pipes, but it does not necessarily have to mean that it is healthy and good for drinking. Make sure to look into what best water filters would be good for you, as you should install one. Not only will you be able to drink pristine clear water, but you will help your body stay strong and healthy. Just make sure to avoid brining any fizzy drinks or sodas home, so that everyone will want a nice tall clear glass of water.
Greening up your kitchen will take some time and effort, but the end results will be all worth it as you will have a nice and warm kitchen where it will be joyous to prepare food. Keep in mind that your kitchen is the soul of your home, and spicing it up and making it eco-friendly is only one step towards becoming really green and being environmentally conscious. A bit of investment can go a long way in helping to green up your kitchen.

- ter Most Shocking
Numbers are hard to speld down, but it is likely hundreds of people have died, bot murdered, after looking for love online. And the chilling fact is that online sites that promise love, happiness and marriage have, under Federal law (47 USC 230) absolutely no, zip, zero liability for what is posted on dating websites. Take the case of Mary Kay Beckman. She met Wade Mitchell Ridley online. They dated for a week or so and then, perhaps the vibes were bad, so she broke it off. Whatever instincts she had were right. A few months zometeen, he attacked hier at hier huis, repeatedly stabbing and kicking hier. She wasgoed fortunate to get out alive. It turns out that the stud wasgoed a suspect ter the murder of his ex-girlfriend. So, Beckman did what any crimson blooded American would do and sued Match.com for $Ten million. The 2013 Forbes article, entitled "Online Dating Websites Aren't Required to Warn That Some Members May Be Murderers", says it all. The court cited USC 230 when it dismissed Beckman's case. If you assume thesis websites have any responsibility to keep you safe, think again.
Whether you are buying a car or looking for love, just reminisce websites are not liable for what people postbode. It's up to you to do your homework, because your life could depend on it. Te some of thesis cases, it is visible that the victims were not careful, and that they did things wij might not do. But sometimes the danger signs are not so demonstrable.
12 Mother of three
Te April of , Ingrid Lyne, a forty year old nurse and mom of three living te the Seattle, Washington area, wasgoed reported missing. It emerged that Lyne, an attractive dark-haired, had bot dating a man named John Charlton for a month or so. They had met online. The last anyone heard, Charlton had picked hier up to go to a Mariners baseball spel. Then, bod parts te bin bags were found ter a homeowner's recycling bin, spil were a witnessed and traces of blood and tissue te a bathroom te hier house. Charlton wasgoed arrested and held on $Two million bail. Lyne had evidently trusted Charlton. But the man had a criminal record that spanned six States. And te 2006, his parents had sought a restraining order against him after he had become buzzed and abusive. He had taken a DVD of the movie Hannibal from a shelf, passed it to his mother, and told hier to "beware".
11 Sharon Winters – chef she met online
Sharon Winters, a thirty-nine year old mother of four, wasgoed depressed and desperate to find love. Ter 2014, she thought she had found hier soulmate on an online dating webpagina. Days after they met, Kevin Hawke (of no immobilized abode) moved into Sharon Winters' Liverpool UK huis. Family and friends were worried. Hawke wasgoed controlling and, according to hier brother, shoved Sharon around and pulled hier hair. He attempted ter vain to warn Sharon. But, afraid of being alone, she refused to listen. Just days after Sharon had met Hawke, she wasgoed dead, the victim of a perverse and frantic knife attack te hier own huis. Hawke, an unemployed chef, had spent the day drinking vodka and mannetjesvarken and, after an argument, he had thrown Sharon to the floor and stabbed hier some 90 times. After he killed hier, he gedistilleerd another teddybeer and called an ex-girlfriend. He wasgoed found very tipsy outside of hier house. He wasgoed convicted and sentenced to life.

Boston construction employment is up from last year
Boston's construction industry is growing at a rapid pace, according to data from the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC).
The construction, mining and logging industry in Massachusetts added 134,800 workers in January, which is up 8 percent from the year prior. In the Greater Boston metro area, 63,100 workers were employed in construction, mining and logging, which is up 10 percent from the year before.
If numbers are not proof enough of construction growth in Boston, it is also visually represented by the sheer amount of construction cranes sprawled across the Boston skyline. The Boston Business Journal reported that there are currently over 140 construction projects in Boston Proper and Cambridge, ranging from new apartment complexes to parking lots.
However, growth in construction is not exclusive to Massachusetts. Construction employment rose in 243 metro areas across the U.S. in January, according to the AGC.
"Demand in most parts of the country is robust and construction employment is growing in more than two-thirds of all metro areas," said Ken Simonson, chief economist of the AGC, in a statement.

Overseeding Roundup
November 13, 2008
For southwestern desert courses, the annual overseeding ritual is now complete for 2008. Weather and temperature patterns during renovation and establishment are always the big unknowns, but, by all accounts, it was a successful season. Each year, golf courses make adjustments to the renovation and seeding process in an effort to produce better overseeded conditions for the winter while doing their best to preserve the underlying bermudagrass for the summer. This year was especially interesting due to several economic and agronomic factors, and the following is a brief summary of the issues that affected overseeding programs in the Southwest.
Issues affecting overseeding in 2008
- Higher cost for seed - all courses reported paying more for perennial ryegrass seed this year compared to previous years. The higher cost, combined with delivery surcharges, were additional hits to the budget. Many courses adjusted their program by reducing the overseeding rate or reducing the total amount of acreage that is normally overseeded.
- Looming water crisis - California, Arizona, and Nevada are facing severe water shortages that affected decisions and practices for overseeding.
- Protecting bermudagrass and easing spring transition problems - Gone are the days of the snow birds leaving at the end of May. More and more golfers live year-round in the desert southwest and want to play golf. There is a higher demand for good summer conditions and less tolerance for bare patches during spring transition and the remaining months of summer.
Overseeding trends in 2008
- Less renovation and less seed - Fifteen years ago, superintendents would scalp the bermudagrass to the dirt and seed into the stubble. Now greater emphasis is placed on retaining a good base of bermudagrass with less aggressive renovation, which has become the standard practice. Many courses reported reducing overseeding rates in the rough from 500 lb. / acre to 350 lbs. / acre. Some courses reduced seeding rates in fairways from the traditional 800 to 1,000 + lbs. / acre to 650 lbs. / acre.
- Reduction in overseeded acreage - The decision was made by several courses in Arizona and Nevada to limit overseeding to tees, fairways, and greens complexes in order to control costs for seed, water, and maintenance. These areas typically comprise 40 to 50 acres on an average 100 acre golf course, resulting in a 50% to 60% savings.
- Suspend overseeding - A few private clubs took the bold step of suspending overseeding for 2008. The main reasons were saving money on seed and water, in addition to building a stronger bermudagrass surface for next spring. Some clubs are discussing a plan to suspend overseeding every third year to preserve good bermudagrass quality.
- The use of green turf paint - Yes, it sounds strange, but we see painted turf every weekend when we watch NCAA and NFL football. A few courses are prepared to paint tees and fairways as the bermudagrass goes dormant to provide green color and visual appeal. Although painting costs are about the same as overseeding, there is a savings in labor and water use, along with the agronomic benefits of eliminating spring transition issues and actually speeding bermudagrass recovery in the spring.

Type I Diabetes CURED (In mice)
Scott Benner
Dear Scientists,
I know that it must be difficult to find research money for your study and I understand that you are under pressure to generate excitement about your work.
I'm also extremely grateful to anyone who is trying to find a cure for type I diabetes. I don't want you to stop looking or collecting grants and donors, but I do need you to do one small favor for me, well, actually for everyone who is touched by type I diabetes.
STOP publishing your "exciting" news about curing lab mice!
You see, when I open my laptop and read your story about how you coaxed a cell into producing insulin, I shrug and go about my business because my daughter has been living with diabetes for a very long time and I've seen a thousand articles just like yours. I know not to get excited - I know that you're fishing for donors. I understand that you are trying to justify the space that you take up in some lab. I get what the price of doing business is, I empathize.
But how about having some compassion for the countless families who are new to type I diabetes, maybe you shouldn't be getting their hopes up just to break their hearts all over again. Maybe, you should just shut up until you figure out a way to help a person. These stories hurt people. Parents, adults, friends and family. People are crushed when you lift them so high, only to drop them down onto their reality. The next time I hear you talk about a mouse, it better be because you figured out how to use that "cure" you found in a person. We have feelings, consider them.

How did Juventus easily contain Monaco's dangerous strike force on Wednesday night, right on their home soil in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi final?
A pundit told UEFA last night, flexibility was the key to Juventus Coach Massimiliano Allegri team formation during the match.
Juventus formation several times during the game. Allegri began with a 4-2-3-1 but also switched at certain intervals to 3-4-3 and 4-4-2.
"What does not change, however, is his side's defensive solidity. The Bianconeri are yet to be breached in the knockout rounds, having remained watertight since Nicolás Pareja's strike for Sevilla on matchday five (which amounts to 621 minutes)", said Paolo Menicucci, a Juventus reporter.
Rumours of a surprise in Juve's line-up began earlier Wednesday afternoon and were confirmed when the starting XI was announced.
Allegri went for the tried-and-tested Andrea Barzagli in defence, for two reasons: to strengthen the back line against Monaco's dangerous attack and to give more freedom for Dani Alves to attack down the right. The latter, in particular, was a lethal move with the former Barcelona man providing both assists for Higuaín's goals.
After all the deserved plaudits for Monaco's offensive play, Leonardo Jardim's men found themselves stuck on 146 goals in all competitions for the season as Buffon's goal proved as unbreachable for them as it had been for Barcelona in the quarter-finals.
Given the form they had been in, it was strange to see Mbappé and Falcao spurn a couple of presentable chances apiece. Mbappé was Monaco's most dangerous forward yet failed to score for the first time when starting a UEFA Champions League fixture.
The man of the night, Argentine and Juventus hitman Gonzalo Higuaín, who recorded a brace, wrapped up his stellar performance with a quote from another famous striker, Ruud van Nistelrooy.
"During a period where I didn't score, he used to tell me that goals are like ketchup. You try, but it doesn't come out. And when it comes out, it all does at once."
The Argentinian had only ever scored two goals in the UEFA Champions League knockout stage before Wednesday's match. Yet he broke the deadlock on 29 minutes and half an hour later he had his second, doubling his knockout tally and marking this semi-final with two big dollops of ketchup.
And it was Monaco 0 and Juventus 2, with a return match billed for Turin next week Tuesday.

Sainsbury's launch Active Kids 2013
08 February 2013 Funding Young People
Following the success of previous years, Sainsbury's Active Kids 2013 scheme is up and running to help children lead healthier and more active lives.
Now in its ninth year, Active Kids has so far put over 4.9 million pieces of equipment into the hands of millions of children across the UK and will this year be extended to include groups that provide opportunities for disabled young people.
Building on the excitement of the London 2012 Paralympic Games, Sainsbury's and Sport England are working together to encourage thousands of clubs where disabled people play sport to join the successful scheme. Signing up means the clubs can benefit from collecting & redeeming vouchers in return for equipment and experiences that help its customers and the community to lead healthier, more active lifestyles.
Sport England is also investing £1 million of National Lottery funding to provide free training courses to help coaches, leaders, assistants and parents develop the skills and confidence to include disabled people in sporting activity.
This investment extends into community clubs the high quality support commitment for teachers through the Sainsbury's Active Kids for All scheme, creating a seamless approach for disabled people in school and community sport.
"Now is the time to make sure we're maintaining children's excitement around sport, and in particular Paralympic sport," said Ellie Simonds, Active Kids ambassador. "We made great progress last year and schemes like Active Kids will help to continue that to make sure the next generation is active and involved in a huge range of activities."

When leaving Japan, especially if you have any built up relationships, you need to give people time to process things well in advance. Because I rotate to many different schools (usually cycling between 4 junior high schools for a week each) I have decided to tell them on the second to last cycle. For example, today I am at Oomaruchu, and I will go to this school all week. The next time I will cycle to this school will be early March, and that will be my final week for Oomauchu. I have been in the same BOE for four years and many of the kids have known me since elementary school, so it's only fair of me to let them know as soon as I could. I'm sure most kids will be indifferent to it, but there are those who are very attached to me and I need to be fair to them most of all. At this moment I have told every school except Shomaruchu. I first start out by informing the head English teacher (i.e. My handler) and then I filter down to the other teachers. Most teachers have reacted with a kind of disbelief and a loss as to what they should say. My favorite one was when I told Ms. Eastridge yesterday. Those of you who read this blog before may remember that she really doesn't like me very much (I still don't know why) and when I told her she was positively giddy. So much so she was quite social as long as it revolved around me leaving. It made me laugh because it reminded me so much of what I did when my first college roommate from Boston quit University after his first year. We didn't get along at all, and I was really happy to see him leave, but I attempted to be courteous about it. Same thing with Ms. Eastridge, so funny.
That being said I have been through almost one full rotation since I started back mid January. At Chibimaruchu, things are still pretty much running as normal. Mrs. Forrest is still getting steamrolled, but it looks like she has just accepted it. The special education kids at that school are sooooo amazing! They love studying English and they are very much into it, which would give anyone warm fuzzies. The school is close to a hospital, so they are responsible for teaching the long term kids there. Those are usually small, very mixed groups of k-12 in one class, but never numbering more than 5 students. The last time I went it was 3 young elementary school kids and one high school boy. The boy was such a kind kid, and was acting like their teacher and as a go between for me. Teaching with him as a student is really one of those "faith in humanity restored" type experiences.
At Nakamaruchu, things seem to be going well. Mr. Booker wasn't disrespected by any of his students, and Ms, Ren was competently handling classroom management. She still has a tiny voice, so it takes a while for the kids to realize that she is speaking. At first I thought they were being disrespectful, but it was just they couldn't hear her. I think a air-horn would improve her technique.
Like I said before, I am at Oomaruchu this week. Yesterday, I found out that the Board of Education is coming to the school along with it being an open school event for parents. I was lucky I found out yesterday at all. Last couple times this happened I was informed a few minutes before class. There have been times when no one told me and random people would walk into class. The normal class uniform for teachers tends to be running outfits and things that look appropriate in New Jersey minus the gold chains. When the BOE comes, suddenly everyone is in a full suit. It's easy for them because they have lockers and can change in a moments notice. For me, I have to know in advance so I can at least bring a tie. I don't go so far as to wear a track suit. What I usually wear is a short sleeved, open collared shirt (sometimes a polo), slacks and for winter, some kind of fleece pullover. So for 5th period today, I will likely have an audience. I really hate it, not because they are there, but because it throws the kids off. It's lunch time now… A noose…ahem… Necktie has been placed around my neck and I am ready to go…
(Written the next day) the observation was all off 3 minutes if even that. 12 people piled in, watched and then went to the next class… That was it. I think I got a little insight into Ms. Eastridge though. She was extremely strict to her class that day, and it may or may not have been nerves. It dawned on me that our teaching styles may be polar opposites. My goal when I teach is to make the kids speak because of intrinsic reasons. I want them to communicate with me because they genuinely want to say something. To do this requires a good relationship with the kids, flexibility, humor, and a willingness to engage in spurious play with the kids. The opposite of this is a strict regimen of discipline, process, and rote learning. I don't think the latter is a bad technique. Children require rules and need to know when they have crossed a bridge too far. Teachers who are stuck in the disciplinarian route sometimes lose themselves in it, and become dependent on the power and authority in that particular power structure. They often see a loose power structure as a threat to their citadel and can sometimes go on the offensive because of that perceived threat. I am going to work on that presumption for the time being. Honestly though… I am probably just overly focused on that situation and probably talking out of my ass.
One more interesting side note about Oomaruchu is Mr. Blossom. He was out for a few months because of stress. He was doing so well I thought, but the work got to him. By the work I mean administrative things and not necessarily the students. He is back now, but not doing anything. Technically he is still on leave, but he is literally just showing up anyways. He is talking to the ALT a lot while he sits around. He honestly told me that he was just making sure that everyone knew that he could still speak English. Regardless, I like the guy and I hope he gets back on the horse successfully.
Fall down twice, stand up three times.

Unbeknownst Gym-Goers: Reading Into Striplin Shirt Policy
When you walk down to General Charles Krulak stadium on a school day evening, you will see many of Birmingham-Southern's athletes at work. The football team may be having a scrimmage or practice, and spread out all over the track is BSC's track and field athletes. The cross-country boys are probably in their short shorts, and the girls of the team are usually sweating it out in sports bras and tempo-like shorts. When it's upwards of eighty degrees and humid outside, even in September, all of the athletes are trying to do their best to stay hydrated and as cool as possible as they train.
On a day-to-day basis many of these collegiate athletes go shirtless for their physical activities. This is a habit not only athletes have, but also many average gym-goers or casual runners partake in as well. When you're doing something physically strenuous, it is understandable to want to be as cool and unrestricted as possible. Due to this, going shirtless has become common workout attire, including in gyms. Many fitness centers, though, are not on board with this.
BSC's Larry D. Striplin, Jr. Physical Fitness and Recreation Center, referred to by the community as Striplin Center, is one of the many recreation centers that has in place a shirt policy, one forbidding gym-goers from choosing to go shirtless. This policy is not broadcasted in the gym by any signage, and it can sometimes throw students off. Someone who is used to running outside in only their shorts may finish their work out with sprints on the indoor track. Some runners may resort to the treadmill if it starts to rain during their run. Other runners might begin using the indoor track during the winter. This shirt rule could cause frustration amongst these students looking to use the Striplin Center.
Striplin Center's director, Mike Robinson, met with me for an interview about Striplin's policies. Mr. Robinson has been working at Birmingham-Southern for thirty-three years, and was here when the Striplin Center first opened it's doors in 1998. The rules created for the Striplin Center since then seem to be pretty concrete. "When we first opened the Striplin Center in '98, I had a draft of the policies and procedures for Striplin and the board of trustees approved that," Mr. Robinson talks about Striplin's guidelines, "We've tweaked things since, but I don't know of any new rules or regulations that we've added over the past few years." Mr. Robinson went on the explain that Birmingham-Southern stays in contact with other schools in our athletic conference and ACS-member schools, in order to compare hours, intermural sports, and discuss adding anything new.
In terms of the shirt rule, Mr. Robinson says, "It's primarily for the weight room and the cardio room. It's for sanitation. I don't want anybody lying on a bench doing an exercise without a shirt on." In terms of the gray area where gym-goers might be confused, Mr. Robinson draws a clearer line for us, saying, "We let them play shirts and skins on the basketball court and that kind of thing, so that's sort of where we have the dividing line."
It turns out that the runners seeking refuge from rainy days on the indoor track probably do not have anything to worry about, but gym-goers looking to use their got-to weight machines should opt for a workout shirt.

From the VISION to the project's REALISATION
The Soravia family history dates back more than 120 years in the construction sector and in real estate project development, this means that we are used to taking a longer-term view.
This focus on the future determines the selection of our projects.
Whether it's revitalising historic buildings, undertaking visionary urban development or creating innovative, affordable homes – we always have our eye on long-term potential.
As a matter of principle we only realise projects of which we are completely convinced. This allows maximum dedication across the board. Alongside our project teams, our owners themselves are personally involved in every phase of a property's lifecycle: from the acquisition of a plot through to the sales, letting and management of a property.
We do not only build apartments, hotels or offices. We realise living spaces that serve as sustainable growth drivers for their entire environment.
Creativity and the courage of a vision not only guarantee strong identification with the project – they have also led to some of the most exceptional, trailblazing projects in the whole of Central Europe. Restoring the Sofiensäle in Vienna to its original glory, planning an entire urban quarter like TownTown, building the highest residential tower in Austria – the Danube Flats on the River Danube – are just a few examples here.

Konami Reveals Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes
-Jimmy Kovalski
Earlier today, Konami showed off its brand new Fox Engine with a tech demo. The engine's demo ran footage of something called Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes.
The big story here is that this is not just a tech demo. This is an upcoming, new, open-world Metal Gear Solid game.
"This announcement is a challenge from Kojima Productions to the world," said Hideo Kojima.
The demo showed off how the engine can handle weather (like rain) as well as clothing textures and lighting.
In the demonstration, Snake crawled to avoid some searchlights, did a quick stealth kill then he hopped in a jeep and called in a helicopter for evac. The concept behind Ground Zeroes is that this is a "Game without Game Over".
This concept sounds like that if the player is discovered, the game is not over but in fact, a new layer will be added. Kojima wants players to improvise when discovered, not run and hide. It remains to be seen how the "open-world" aspect of the game will play in but it is certainly interesting to say the least.
It is worth noting that the demo was in fact running on a high-end PC but the game has been designed with the Xbox 360 and PS3 in mind.
Not much else is known at this point but follow GGN to get all details when it becomes available.

The 38-year-old father of two had been drafted in to combat the blaze that threatened hillside homes. At the height of the fire, the experienced pilot was heading to a pond to refill his monsoon bucket when its cable struck the tail rotor causing the helicopter to crash.
Today, his widow Elizabeth Askin speaks for the time first and pays tribute to the man Kiwis voted the Herald's New Zealander of the Year People's Choice winner.
I cannot begin to express how thankful I am for the out pouring of love the children and I have received, we are so blessed to receive the gifts that came through the Give-a-Little page and the countless other gifts and the support shown in so many different ways. I am overwhelmed with the thoughtfulness, kindness, love, prayers and generosity expressed to the children and me.
This journey is giving me a deeper appreciation of the pain and hurt in the world, and the wonderful kindness that is also in this world.
Steve was much more than a decorated soldier and experienced pilot to his family. For us he was a loving solid family man, a loyal friend, son, brother, husband, father and employee.
For those of us who knew him personally, he was humble, honest, trustworthy, a hard worker, story-teller, an encourager, always helpful and generous. He had a strong reassuring presence, funny with a great sense of humour.
I loved hearing him laugh. He lived life to the full and inspired others to do the same.
The moment I started dating Steve life got more interesting. On our first date he took me through my paces, a 5am windy helicopter ride, followed by a long walk around cliffs, then free-diving for paua and crayfish in freezing water in our bathing suits.
I knew a future with this guy would never be boring, and I was right. He introduced me to a whole other way of living which in part could be summed up in the question "What is around the next corner?"
I gained so much from Steve in our years together, and it is extremely hard knowing that he won't be around to teach his children his enthusiastic approach to life.
Though none of us can fill his shoes, I am thankful to his family and loyal mates, and my family and friends, who all endeavour to do everything they can to love and support me and our children, giving the children great experiences, while acknowledging their father.
Personally I continue to learn from Steve. I know what he would do in certain situations, and how he would always encourage me. Steve's positive attitude toward life is one of the things that gives me courage and confidence to move forward through this grief.
I am so grateful for things that I have learned from Steve in the years we were together; they will always stick with me. Steve loved life, he said he needed ten lifetimes for all the adventures he dreamed about, and to achieve all of our goals.
I grieve so much for my children because I know what an awesome father they have lost, I was so pleased knowing what a man of great character and fun the children had for a father.
Steve and I have a strong faith in Jesus, the values that go with being a Christian is what drew me to him. His strong integrity and loyalty to friends and family were what I respected about him most.
I would also thank God for putting us together, for the great team we were and the strong marriage we built.
My respect and love for Steve grew deeper and deeper as the years went by. I miss him enormously; I am devastated and heartbroken by the huge loss of my partner in life. I am grateful for the years we had together and the awesome children we were blessed with. The pain will always be there, when you love greatly you grieve greatly.
• Steve Askin was one of 10 finalists for the Herald's New Zealander of the Year People's Choice. The others were: Bronia Tindall and Fabrizio Clementi, Nathan Spitzer, Lance O'Sullivan, Marnie Prickett, Sarah Thomson, Andrew Little, Andrew Nicholson, Sarah Cato, and the people of Kaikoura and Waiau.

One of the real bonuses of modern classroom technology is that is brings the whole world into your classroom. Three teams of students won honors during the 2016 InVenture Prize at Georgia Tech, a competition that brings together student innovators from all academic backgrounds across campus to foster creativity, invention and entrepreneurship. On Wednesday, October 5, Jean-Pierre Sauvage, Sir J. Fraser Stoddart, and Bernard L. Feringa won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for creating machines that are a thousand times thinner than a hair strand! They are very interested in the important contribution which nuclear science and technology can make to development. Alloy is a headset that uses the RealSense technology enabling people to use their hands to interact with elements of the virtual world.
That's because today, the Department of Energy (DOE) released the second Quadrennial Technology Review (QTR), which explores the current state of technologies in key energy sectors and the R&D opportunities available in the mid-term. A new engine design that improves fuel economy and lowers exhaust emissions has received a prestigious 2014 R&D 100 Award.
Today's eye-tracking technology from companies like Tobii is used heavily in usability research. Once of the articles I have used with classes was featured in the Boston Globe ( Six Ways Social Media Can Ruin your Life ) a few years ago and I found this to be an excellent teachable moment for students. Keeping ahead of the times in terms of current events, new methods and practices is also a fundamental part of the success behind a company. For corporate and business enterprises, staying at the helm of new technology related to communication and information is paramount to their success.
R&D Magazine selected Southwest Research Institute's Dedicated EGR (D-EGR®) engine technology as one of the 100 most significant technological achievements introduced in the past year. Shifting technology support and consultancy services to India has proven to be a significant source of cost control for many of the world's technology companies. This advancing technology is good for medicine but to the public, it can seem a little threatening.
Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and the Georgia Institute of Technology announced a $5 million grant from The Imlay Foundation to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta for the development of pediatric therapies. The catch 22 which faces businesses and corporations however, is having to pay exorbitant rates and fees for premium technology.

How To Water Your Succulents/
How To Water Succulents or How Succulents Are Like Binge Drinking Cats
Succulents don't like to be wet like other plants, they are like cats. They want water, they need water, but don't you dare get them wet!
Water your succulents at the base of the plant, where the stem is in the soil. Water the soil not the plant itself if you can help it. Soak it like you mean it! Succulents are from desert climates, they are used to getting a lot of water at once, and then not having any for a while. Think of it like a binge drinker. A binge drinking cat.
After watering, let your succulent dry out for a bit. Wait at least 5 days before checking again. Once you've figured out when your plant is thirsty and ready for water. Plan a water schedule that works for your plants in your home. It's pretty humid here in Charleston, SC so our succulents only need water about once a week. If you are keeping your succulents outside, you may need to water a little more often in the summer months.
How can you tell when your baby needs water? Don't be shy, stick your finger into the soil, wiggle it around and see how she feels. It's better to underwater than over water. Succulents like their dry, desert like climates so we have to change our watering schedules to make them happy here. And isn't that what life is about? A little give and a little take. Happy Plants Happy Life.
Bonus Tip: Succulents with fatter leaves need more water than those with skinny little puny leaves.
Got Questions? We've got answers. Probably. But no guarantees! Ask us anyway and we'll do our best to help you out. Email Us or Leave us a comment with any plant care questions or any other question about life, the universe, you know, whatever is going on in your life. We're here for you.
Peace + Plants,

'The Oil Crash'
Conference about the Oil Crash, climate change and the coverage by the media.
Lecture by Antonio Turiel from CMIMA-CSIC and author of The Oil Crash blog; Ferran Puig, science journalist and author of the Usted no se lo cree blog; conducted by Marc Boada, scientific popularizer. With the support of the Casal de Jóvenes Palau Alòs.
Do you know about the current dependence on fossil fuels? Do you know the limitations of renewable energy? What is the role of the media in the change of the energy model?
Antonio Turiel tells us that we can not continue to grow as usual because we have no resources. The crisis will not end if we do not change our financial and productive model. We have reached the end of growth. Future prospects are that oil production from existing fields will decline by 40% by 2020 and will be almost impossible to compensate for this decline, especially since it is estimated that by 2018 China and India will absorb all oil production if they continue their Current consumption pattern.
Ferran Puig alerts us that humanity is facing one of the biggest imaginable dilemmas. The Earth's climate system seems to have been permanently destabilized, while the vast majority of the population ignores a phenomenon that will defenetly change our life. The scientific community, the media and the political class are stunned by this phenomenon and do not give any solution to the scale of the challenge presented to them. When elites fail, it's time for people.
The event is free, it will take place on Friday February 22, from 6 to 8 pm in La Fàbrica del Sol (Passeig Salvat Papasseit 1, Barcelona) and pre-registration is required.

Post Loss Specialist, HNI
The market is flooded with great individuals that possess the qualifications your organization needs. In order to fill a vacancy you find yourself wading through a sea of applications. You narrow the search down to a several candidates but you can only hire one. You need to make a solid decision and acquire the right talent that will help your business grow and not fail.
So, you cross your fingers and make your offer. Your offer is contingent on the candidate passing a background check and a drug test. You feel confident in your decision but ask yourself if you are doing enough to weed out any potential problems.
Many businesses have experienced that one workers compensation claim that just sticks with them forever. You know the one. The great candidate who never conveyed that he had permanent restrictions from a prior work injury and re-injured himself after you hired him. When it comes to workers compensation you hire your employees "as is" and you end up stuck with the major claim that may have been avoided.
How can you avoid hiring that one individual who will plague your experience rating and loss experience for years to come? Consider adding a pre-employment strength test or fitness test to your post offer process. There are different types of tests that can be utilized but many can provide objective quantitative evidence that an individual is just not capable of doing the job you have offered them. It is one more step in the process to help employers avoid hiring their next workers compensation claim.

Lyrics - Enough
Enough (Alvin, Ryuji Iida)
You, baby you...
You drive me out of my mind.
My love, has turned blue
Still, you play me like nobody can.
You, baby you...
You drive me out of my mind.
Our love, was once true
But now they don't make any sense.
I'm done talking to you
I'm done crying for you
Baby I have heard it all
No more tryin, I'm through
I'm not buyin, from you
Now's my turn to make the call
Can't keep anymore
I've had enough
The cards' on the floor
You've played it out
The curtain's come to close
Go take a bow
And now I gotta go
Kiss me good-bye baby
Almost done…

I've cooked up this squash more times than I can count since focusing on low carb options for pasta replacement. Our favorite is simple with marinara and meatballs.
Items Needed
Spaghetti Squash
Cutting board
Baking Sheet lined with foil
Olive Oil
Preheat oven to 400º F.
Rinse outside of squash if you see any dirt.
On a large cutting board, slice the squash length wise.
4. Scoop out seeds and guts until the inside cavity is smooth.
5. Brush inside with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
6. Place inside down on a foil lined baking sheet. Roast in oven for 55-60 minutes
7. Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes.
8. Use a fork to scrape "noodles" towards inside of skin. It should be very easy to get the skin clean.
9. Top with your favorite sauce or use in recipe.
The last time I roasted one, I put it in the oven and headed outside to mow the grass. Came back inside and it was ready to come out of the oven. Multi tasking is amazing!

She came to Jesus just as she was—a foul-mouthed, bulimic, alcoholic drug addict. One week after having an abortion, she surrendered to him in her very own version of the sinner's prayer, punctuated with the f-word.
When I recently called Anne Lamott—the funny, nutty, fast-talking, born-again author whose books include Bird by Bird, Operating Instructions, Traveling Mercies, and most recently Blue Shoe—the same earthy candor came through.
To be sure, Lamott is a hard-core liberal. I disagree with her on many fronts, for example with her belief that personhood doesn't start at conception. Yet, deeper within her than her loud liberalism is a reality that has won her many evangelical readers: a zany ardor for Jesus. Lamott's fascination with all things Jesusy (a term she might as well have copyrighted) must be the reason why she is a mixed bag of hilariously antagonistic affections.
Let me count the ways.
Every morning, before she gets out of bed, Lamott reads meditations by Emmet Fox (1886-1951), the progressive New Thought preacher who is popular in Alcoholics Anonymous circles. "You want to buy his book Sermon on the Mount today; it will change your life. I promise," she says. She looks up daily Scripture passages in Zondervan's Women of Faith Study Bible. The conservative publisher puts out "hundreds of books that I love," including If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat by Willow Creek Community Church's teaching pastor, John Ortberg.
A commentator for NPR and a columnist at the freethinking Salon.com, Lamott shops "all the time" at Christian bookstores. She calls herself a "bumper-sticker Christian." The two bumper-sticker sayings she lives by are: "God loves you just the way you are but he loves you ...1

When to Seek Treatment for Acid Reflux
Understanding GERD
GERD occurs when the acidic contents of the stomach back up into the esophagus, causing symptoms such as burning behind your breastbone, belching, an acid taste in your mouth, or swallowing difficulties. Occasional heartburn can be treated with diet and lifestyle changes, over-the-counter antacids or prescription medications, including proton pump inhibitors. However, these options can't fix the underlying problem when a hiatal hernia is present, or if the cause is a weak, ineffective muscle at the bottom of your esophagus.
Complications of Untreated GERD
If left untreated, chronic reflux can cause painful irritation called esophagitis. It can also cause precancerous changes in the lining of the esophagus, called Barrett's esophagus, which is believed to be a precursor to the development of esophageal cancer. In rare cases, severe reflux can cause hoarseness, permanent vocal changes, and even severe narrowing of the esophagus, called strictures.
Acid Reflux Procedures Repair Hiatal Hernias
Our surgeons also repair hiatal hernias (including a type of hiatal hernia called paraesophageal hernia), which occur when the stomach and other abdominal organs enter the chest area through the hiatus, a naturally occurring hole in the diaphragm. The presence of a hiatal or paraesophageal hernia allows acid to flow freely into the esophagus and may cause additional symptoms including nausea, vomiting, chest pain, heartburn, and difficulty swallowing.
