Art & Adventure are two of the strands that Christine-Ann Richards has successfully used over the years in planning her travels in China and central Asia. Her first visit with other members of the Craft Potters Association in 1978 has led to an on-going affair with the culture, the country and the peoples of China. This interest in the art, archaeology and philosophy that make up the history of the area have led to many a detour 'off the beaten track', which in her travels she seeks to share with others.
"Throwing Large Porcelain Pots in Jingdezhen, China" by Christine-Ann Richards.
Latest Tour to SW. CHINA & LAOS: 7th - 25th January 2015 see news item or contact Christine-Ann for details
Oxidised porcelain fired at 1260/1280deg. C. while sculptural and exterior work is fired at 1150deg.C.
Kiln is self built using basic potterycraft kiln plus additional cylinders of kiln bricks cannabalised from other kilns. Modified over the years it can be used as one kiln or two and has 3 sections with an additional ceramic fibre top if necessary.
Christine-Ann Richards trained at Harrow School of Art and Technology
with Mick Casson (1971-73), then worked with David Leach. In London,
she started her own workshop as a member of the Barbican Arts Group
(1975-83) and in 1976 was elected to membership of the Craftsmen
Potters Association and the Society of Designer Craftsmen. She is also a member of the Devon Guild of Craftsmen and the Somerset Guild of Craftsmen. She now
works from her home, a converted chapel near Frome in Somerset.
Christine-Ann has worked in thrown porcelain for more than thirty years, firing in an oxidising atmosphere and specialising in crackle, peach-bloom and monochrome glazes. A study trip to China in 1978 with the Craftsmen Potters Association had a radical effect on her work and way of life. She has pursued Chinese studies and returns regularly to China, often accompanying fellow artists.
Since 1989 Christine-Ann has also been working with a vitrified earthenware clay making large pots and water features. The summer of 1992 she spent on an international workshop in Tokoname in Japan and in 1996 she received a Winston Churchill Traveling Fellowship to return there to "explore the way water is used in landscape architecture". A project award from South West Arts has enabled her to develop some of the ideas evolved from the trip. In 1997 she was named 'Somerset Craftsperson of the Year' for her new work.

Tours & Adventure
These are two of the strands that Christine-Ann Richards has successfully used over the years in planning her travels in China and central Asia. Her first visit with other members of the Craft Potters Association in 1978 has led to an on-going affair with the culture, the country and the peoples of China. This interest in the art, archaeology and philosophy that make up the history of the area have led to many a detour 'off the beaten track', which in her travels she seeks to share with others. A growing interest in 'the Silk Route' has also led to visits to Samarkand and Bukhara, in Uzbekistan.

The 'Mingei' Tradition in Central China 13th March – 5th April 2008. This tour visited Suzhou, Guilin & the tribal areas of Guizhou Province & Jingdezhen the porcelain capital of China. From the classical gardens of Suzhou we travelled to Guilin where classical Chinese painting is made a reality. Climbing into the secluded, mountainous, tribal area of Guizhou Province we visit musicians and artists in weaving, embroidery, batik, indigo and silver. Each tribe having their own style of dress and architecture. Thence to the ceramic areas of Changsha and Jizhou, famous for its black wares, and Jingdezhen.
Comment: The 'Mingei' tour was fantastic and it was great that Mary Rich, one of the co-organisers on the CPA 1978 tour, was able to come. Only 7 of us but really great. Guizhou Province which we visited featured in the BBC television programme that went out this week. And then the opportunity to spend three weeks making pots at Sanbao. Visited Takashi Sawano as well at the Sculpture Factory in Jingdezhen. More organised than Sanbao where I worked out of town in the countryside, but no less impressive.
2008 - Western China & The Southern Silk Road, 5th – 27th September,
Ancient civilisations buried in the sands of the Taklamakan Desert,
fortresses and frescoed Buddhist cave complexes, mosques, minarets,
carpets, silk, metalwork and jade.

A former state Department of Juvenile Justice lieutenant yesterday pleaded guilty in Chatham County Superior Court to a theft-by-taking charge for fraudulently using fuel cards to buy gas in exchange for drugs.
According to the Georgia Department of Law press release, Jerry Byrd was sentenced by Judge Louisa Abbot to five years probation, $1,000 in restitution to the department of juvenile justice, 200 hours of community service and substance abuse and treatment.
An internal investigation begun after a series of suspicious fuel purchases were noticed led to Byrd, 42, confessing to 30-40 unauthorized fuel purchases using the fuel card for his private vehicle as well as fueling the cars of drug dealers in exchange for cocaine, the press release said.
Assistant Attorney General Daniel Hiatt prosecuted the case.

Comprehending the subject. This is the one of the most important thing to remember while penning an essay. What is the subject matter? What should be the essay all about? These questions should have a ready answer with the author, who is about to write an essay.

"My dog thought I was a singer… because dogs don't understand standup comedy."
-Margaret Cho [20:40]
[Housekeeping update: The demand for my $5K Holiday Megabox exceeded expectations, so I'm opening up a few more slots. First come, first served, and deadline is 11:59pm PT today, November 11, 2014. Click here for more details.]
Margaret Cho is a polymath.
She is an internationally acclaimed comic, actress, author, fashion designer and singer-songwriter. Perhaps you've seen her on the big screen, or in TV series such as Sex and the City and 30 Rock.
But well before she was on Dancing with the Stars (yes, she's done that, too), she decided on her comedy career… at the tender age of eight. The stage has been her constant companion ever since.
In this episode we delve into her comic influences and approaches, bisexuality, slow-carb adventures, and much more. Please indulge me as we dig deep into the lesser-known tricks of the Slow-Carb Diet. Margaret had a lot of detailed questions (she's followed it for ~3 months), and the answers might help accelerate your own fat loss. (If you want more, here are several case studies — with pics — who've lost 100+ pounds.)

Last night, FOX's cult series Lie To Me completed is third season with "Killer App" an episode involving a Facebook-esque plot that brought a darker tone (and murder) to some of Aaron Sorkin's story elements from The Social Network.
While much of Lie To Me can be considered a proverbial stage for Tim Roth to show off his talents as one of television's most skilled thespians, the season 3 finale took a step back from Roth's scene-stealing portrayal of Dr. Cal Lightman and allowed co-star Kelli Williams to shine as Dr. Gillian Foster.
Despite Williams continuously adding rich depth to her character - and to an extent Roth's character – she's rarely had the opportunity to take the lead, both in character performance and storyline focus. Highlighting elements from Foster's past, while providing wonderful backstory to her character, allowed Lie to Me to expand the potential fanbase of the series and, on some level, provided viewers with another character to identify with besides Lightman.
Whether or not this decision will work for the struggling drama still remains to be seen. While FOX has yet to hint at whether or not Lie To Me will return for a fourth season, the most recent ratings – including the finale – may be a sign that the lights may stay on at the Lightman Institute.
Two weeks ago, the ratings for Lie To Me jumped up 1.7 million viewers from the seasonal average. Even though the season 3 finale ended with 7.05 million viewers, that's still well over 1 million viewers more than normal. Not since the beginning of season 2 has Lie To Me seen ratings reach the 7 million mark.
Of course, just because the final two episode of season 3 received a ratings bump, that doesn't mean that FOX will be renewing the series - although, I'm sure they now regret cutting down Lie To Me's episode order to 13. With a surprising jump in the ratings, there's no doubt that everyone at the network is wondering what would have happened if the series ran for a full 22 episodes.
As much as I'd like to sit here and say that Lie To Me will return next fall, I simply do not know. Besides the fact that any speculation will most certainly be based on presumed knowledge of inner-workings of Twentieth Century Fox Television (and FOX is in a bit of disarray over the feud with NBC regarding House season 8), I have a bit of a soft spot for Lie to Me.
To me, Lie To Me may not be one of best shows on television, but it's damn near close. Plus, I'm of the mind that if you have Tim Roth acting on your television network, you should continuously renew the show, no matter what – he's that good.
We most likely won't hear about Lie To Me's fate until this spring, when the networks put together their fall line-ups and confirm their programming decisions. Until then, fans of the series will just have to run around pretending to read people's micro-expressions and hope that Dr. Cal Lightman receives one last chance at redemption.

FAIRFIELD, Conn. -- When Kelly Kegan-McGee and Kathryn Kirton opened Fairfield Swim n' Surf 12 years ago, they were still living at home in Westchester, N.Y.
Now, the two are married with kids and living in Connecticut-- Kegan-McGee in Fairfield and Kirton in Southbury. Not only have their families grown, their business has as well.
The two recently applied for -- and got -- a micro-enterprise assistance grant from the Fairfield Department of Community & Economic Development to help grow their Fairfield store and add a new division.
Sweat by Swim n' Surf, a curated collection of activewear brands, was launched Dec. 1, 2017, and is already -- pardon the pun -- making a splash.
"With the grant, we were able to pay for marketing to announce the launch of Sweat by Swim n Surf," said Kirton.
"We also did a casting call with local Fairfield women and picked three to be in our upcoming ad that we placed in the January issue of Fairfield Magazines Town Guide."
The two women -- best friends since growing up in Rye and Mamaroneck -- believe their key to success is knowing their market. Swim n' Surf, for example, features the latest styles and trends in athleisure and activewear, and above all, provides a comfortable setting full of friendly assistance.
"We want women and girls to feel good in what they purchase," stressed Kirton.
Custom orders and mix and match sizes are always available. The store also specializes in swim team outfitting.
"Since our opening, we've kept up with the latest developments in competitive swimming and stand out with our personalized customer service; as a result, we've acquired over 40 swim teams in the New York and Connecticut area," said Kirton.
That means, too, personalized swim team suits, banners, and caps. Items are sold year-round.
Customers will also find an array of gift items such as candles, jewelry, bags and towels.
Swim 'N Surf of Fairfield LLC is at 43 Unquowa Rd. 203-292-6351; www.swimnsurf.com .

We love breakfast. And we love Dunkin' Donuts. But this limited-time-only (and thankfully now departed) breakfast sandwich from Dunkin' Donuts isn't all that lovable. Sure, you want to fuel up in the morning to get your body ready for the day ahead, but eating this or any other cheesy, sausage-loaded egg sandwich is like having a greasy cheeseburger for breakfast. And you're too smart for that. Luckily, smarties like you get rewarded with delicious swap-tastic recipes like today's creation. All you need is some slimmed-down sausage, a light English muffin, guilt-free cheese, and an egg patty made from your favorite egg substitute. TOO EASY. Okay, not quite as easy as stopping for a sausage-packed breakfast monstrosity on your way to work... but WAY better in the long run! This one may be gone, but plenty of others are still out there. (P.S. If you do find yourself at DD in the a.m., we suggest one of the Egg White Wake-Up Wraps.)

Don't bench Quincey
While I think Joe Sacco is a very good coach and will stay that way for a long time, I just have to respectfully disagree with his decision lately to bench Kyle Quincey.
Sacco said last night Quincey needs to get back to playing an assertive, aggressive game. Was he really that bad though, to warrant being a healthy scratch? Look, I know the Avs have seven healthy D-men right now (eight, when Ruslan Salei comes back, probably some time next week), so somebody has to sit. But count me as one who believes Quincey is one of the team's top six D-men and should be out there.
I'm not going to sit and dump on other D-men here, by comparison. This is more about me saying Quincey has too much talent to be sitting. Quincey has been a minus-2 in the last six games he's played, but, geez, John Liles was a minus-2 the other night against Vancouver and played the next night.
Quincey is the team leader in ice time per game (24:13) and fifth on the team in hits (65). One area of concern, granted, is Quincey's 44 giveaways, the most on the team currently (Wojtek Wolski, before he was traded, was the previous team leader with 51). Quincey also is second on the team with 121 blocked shots.
Quincey does need to take a little better care of the puck, but so do a lot of guys. The Avs, for as well as they said they played last night, had 17 giveways, to nine by Florida. There were a few anxious moments for Craig Anderson after some bad turnovers in the Avs' end, and Quincey had nothing to do with those because he wasn't playing.
Maybe Sacco will look good doing this. Maybe Quincey comes back playing like a monster, to show everybody not to even think of benching him again. Problem is, this was the second game in the last five Sacco did this, and, I don't know, I just think it's risky sitting him more than once.
He's a good player, the Avs gave up a good player (Ryan Smyth) to get him and I think he'd played well enough and done too much good for the team previously to warrant this benching.
Any thoughts on the matter, Av-aholics?

What is the probability, if you roll a coin across a chessboard and it comes to rest on the board, that it covers some corner of one of the grid squares?
(You can assume that the diameter of the coin is less than the sidelength of a single square on the chessboard.)
The solution
Suppose you randomly roll a coin (with radius ) across a chessboard (with squares with sidelength ) many times. What proportion of the time will it land covering a corner of one of the squares?
To cover a corner, the coin's centre must be less than the length of its radius away from the corner.
As the coin is equally likely to land with its centre in any position in the square, the probability it will land with its centre in the shaded region and hence cover a corner is the ratio of the coin's area to the area of a square on the board: , where is the radius of the coin and is the sidelength of a square of the chessboard.

30 in 15: Handzus, Leddy lead Hawks' minor concernsby Dan Rosen
NHL.com continues its preview of the 2013-14 season, which will include in-depth looks at all 30 teams throughout September.Another Stanley Cup championship banner will go up to the rafters inside United Center on Tuesday night. That makes two in the past four Octobers. There could be more to come.
The Chicago Blackhawks have all the ingredients to become the first team since the Edmonton Oilers (1987-90) to win the Stanley Cup at least three times in five seasons. They have the offense, defense, goaltending and experience to become the first NHL team since the Detroit Red Wings (1997-98 to repeat as champions.
Sixteen of the 19 guys who played in Chicago's Stanley Cup-clinching Game 6 victory in Boston on June 24 are back. Everybody from the Blackhawks' group of top-six forwards has returned. All six of their regular defensemen are back. Their starting goalie is back.
The guys who Chicago either traded away (Dave Bolland and Michael Frolik) or lost in free agency (Viktor Stalberg) have been replaced by players who have been biding their time either as healthy scratches or in the American Hockey League, waiting for the opportunity that has finally come their way.
Nikolai Khabibulin is the only veteran replacement. He was signed to take over the backup goalie duties from Ray Emery.
"The will to win it again will definitely be in place because we know the character these guys have and what they bring," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville told NHL.com during the summer.
Quenneville knows the difference between talking about winning another Cup and actually doing it. The latter rarely happens once in a player's career let alone three times, but that's what the core players on this team can accomplish this season.
To do it, though, the Blackhawks will have to overcome a few hurdles, not the least of which is being the group that will be targeted by 29 teams that want what they have.
Here are three areas of intrigue in Chicago heading into the season:
1. Second line center
Quenneville hopes it doesn't become a revolving door of guys centering Marian Hossa and Patrick Sharp, but he was also hoping either Brandon Saad or Brandon Pirri would grab the job in training camp and run with it. That didn't happen, partly because of Saad's desire to be on the wing and partly because of an injury that cost Pirri the first half of training camp.
Quenneville is going with Michal Handzus in this spot to start the season. It's the safe move as Handzus had success playing between Hossa and Sharp in the Stanley Cup Playoffs last season. However, Handzus is 36 years old and coming off injuries to his wrist and knee. He wasn't acquired at the NHL trade deadline last season to be the No. 2 center, but that's what he's become and the Blackhawks have been no worse for it.
"He did such a good job for us last year in all those big games," Quenneville said. "The thing about Handzus, he can make plays, he can see plays, both sides of the puck his instincts are in the right spot. I think he quietly went about his business when he came here and his production was almost a point every other game, which [for the] role that he had was a very high number. He can take faceoffs, he's got a big body ... very useful."
If Handzus stays healthy and is playing well Quenneville will have no reason to replace him, but he hasn't ruled out trying out the Saad-to-center experiment again and there's a chance Pirri could get another chance to earn the No. 2 center job. Pirri led the American Hockey League in scoring last season with 75 points in 76 games. There's also a possibility that Andrew Shaw plays well enough in a third-line role to earn a promotion.
2. Nick Leddy's consistency, development and ice time
Chicago is carrying eight defensemen to start the season, but Leddy will be given every opportunity to earn all of his ice time back and probably more.
"Take advantage of the situation and show us that you deserve more and earn more," Quenneville said, "and I expect that."
Quenneville lost confidence in Leddy as the playoffs wore on last season to the point where he gave him less than five minutes of ice time per game over the final three games of the Stanley Cup Final. Leddy, who averaged more than 17 minutes of ice time per game in the regular season, was stapled to the bench as Michal Rozsival started playing 20 minutes a game -- and playing well.
Rozsival was in a platoon with Sheldon Brookbank as Chicago's sixth defenseman for most of the season.
The Blackhawks, though, gave Leddy (and Rozsival) a two-year contract during the summer because they think his struggles in the playoffs last season are simply a blip in what will otherwise turn out to be a long and strong NHL career. Leddy won't turn 23 until March and he's already played in a combined 212 regular season and Stanley Cup Playoff games.
He had 18 points and a plus-15 rating in 48 regular season games last season. He had 37 points, including 34 assists, in 82 games the prior season.
3. Bryan Bickell and the pressure of expectations
The Blackhawks are paying Bryan Bickell $16 million over the next four seasons because of what he did in the playoffs last spring, scoring nine goals in 23 games to become a bonafide top-six player.
Now Bickell has to pay back the Blackhawks by recreating his playoff success throughout an 82-game regular season.
Bickell, who also had nine goals in the regular season, will start the campaign on the top line with Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane. He doesn't need to be told that his job is to create space for them by driving the net so he can deflect pucks and score the so-called dirty goals. He did that for them in the playoffs last season and wound up the beneficiary.
"He's playing with a couple of guys that should be able to get him the puck too," Quenneville said. "We expect [Bickell's] production to be better than it's been."

High-transmission light-guide plate enabling
display thicknesses less than five millimeters
A light-guide plate to challenge the industry standard for thin
Pushing the industry standard for thin
Large, bright, colorful displays rely on the uniform and pure distribution of light; the trend to thin has become limited by challenges using polymer light-guide plates (LGPs).
An LGP is used in the back-light of edge-lit LCD displays to distribute light evenly throughout the display, a key factor in a crisp, brilliant image.
Polymer LGPs lack the dimensional stability required for ultra-slim displays. When a polymer LGP is subjected to heat and humidity, the material can warp and expand, compromising its opto-mechanical performance. The instability of polymer requires designers to add a wider bezel and thicker backlight with air gaps to compensate for this movement. Replacing polymer with glass solves this problem, but standard glass compositions have not met the optical requirements, until now.
Color purity is another key requirement of an LGP. A combination of Corning's proprietary fusion process and Iris™ Glass' composition positions Corning's light-guide plate offering to achieve color shift performance that matches the best-in-class material.
Corning Iris™ Glass offers outstanding dimensional stability while ensuring superior optical performance that enables manufacturers to offer thinner TVs.
Corning Iris™ Glass: Innovative Design, Superior Performance
Iris ™ Glass provides leading levels of transmission and color shift, surpassing optical requirements of LCDs. The dimensionally stable and rigid glass allows for ultra-slim and narrow bezel LCD TV designs, enabling the thinnest possible edge-lit LCD.

Winning new UK pylon design may never be used
Thanks anyway, have £5k for your trouble
Eco Strategy Boutique A Danish company has won a competition to design a new electricity pylon for the UK. The Department of Energy and Climate Change announced the winner, Bystrup, today.
The winner will trouser £5,000 in prize money for its 'T-Pylon' design, but there's no commitment that it will be scarring the countryside any time soon. Infrastructure suppliers are not obliged to use the winning pylon design, and the National Grid says it wants to work with two other shortlisted candidates, the Silhouette and the Totem.
"This is an innovative design which is simple, classical and practical. Its ingenious structure also means that it will be much shorter and smaller than existing pylons and therefore less intrusive," gushed Chris Huhne, the Minister for Energy and Climate Change, for whom whale song is a lifestyle soundtrack.
In the right light, in snow, and with enough lens flare, you can hardly see it:
Bystrup's TPylon design
The shape of Britain's pylons has barely changed since Sir Reginald Blomfield, the Edwardian architect and landscape designer, chose the first design in 1927. There are now some 88,000 pylons in the UK.
Under current energy policy, tens of thousands more will be needed to link up new, expensive and barely functional windmills at their remote locations - mostly former beauty spots - to the national power grid.
Given the circumstances, perhaps GIMP- or Photoshop-fluent readers could come up with a more appropriate design. Mail them here. ®

Teacher professional development and classroom resources across the curriculum
Testing and Intelligence is the sixteenth program in the DISCOVERING PSYCHOLOGY series. This program explores the history of intelligence tests, based on the work of Alfred Binet. You'll also explore the field of psychological assessment, potential biases in testing, and the influence of cultural beliefs and stereotypes on test performance.
Interview Excerpt: Howard Gardner on Multiple Intelligences
Dr. Howard Gardner defines mulitiple intelligences and explains how the theory represents intelligences not measured by traditional IQ tests.
The theory of multiple intelligences argues against the idea that intelligence can be accurately measured with just an IQ test. If you look at the world around you and think about all the different kinds of things that people can do well, the idea of one kind of intelligence seems too simple.
After a lot of research and analysis, I came up with a list of eight intelligences. The first one is linguistic intelligence, which is the kind of ability that a poet or writer or artist would have. The second intelligence, logical-mathematical, is what you'd find in a mathematician, logician, or scientist, as the name implies. I mention language and logic first because those are the intelligences traditionally measured in aptitude and IQ tests.
Musical intelligence is what you would find in a composer or performer, someone who can think musically. Spatial intelligence, the ability to think about the world in terms of its spatial aspects, is what you would find in a sailor, pilot, or surgeon. In the South Seas, there is a set of islands where in order to survive, you need spatial intelligence because you have to be able to navigate without a compass!
Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence uses the body to learn or to make something. People who pace when they think, dancers, athletes, and surgeons are good examples.
There are two kinds of personal intelligences. Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to understand other people, something you would find in a teacher, therapist, or actor. Intra-personal intelligence deals with understanding yourself.
Finally, naturalist intelligence refers to the ability to identify and classify patterns in nature, as you would see in a biologist, for example. These eight intelligences have evolved with the human race. As cultures change, necessary skills and intelligences are likely to change with them.

Using IBM Workload Scheduler, you can define different types of dependencies for your workflow, including file dependency, which prevents the execution of a task until the file is created on a particular server.
The file name of the dependency can be defined explicitly or defined using classical IBM Workload Scheduler variables. This means that the file name is statically defined at definition time (using explicitly file name) or at planning/submission time (using classical variables).
In order to introduce more flexibility for file dependency scenarios, IBM Workload Scheduler has introduced the possibility to define them adopting the dynamic variable substitution method already used for dynamic jobs definition. In that case the variable must be preceded by the $ (dollar) sign and enclosed in {} (curly brackets).
If you're wondering why IBM Workload Scheduler dynamic variable substitution should be used for file dependencies, here are the top three reasons in our opinion:
The file name becomes dynamic and it's automatically resolved at job execution time. This dynamic variable is useful when the file name is unknown a priori and the name can be dependent on run cycle.
For example, you have a predecessor that creates a file with a timestamp in the file name: myFile_103120161820.txt, and you want to define a dependency on that file. Since the name of the file it's not known until it's created, you can use now dynamic variables instead of file name in the file dependency, and when the file is created it's only needed to modify accordingly the variable in the specific variable table. For that reason, the Variable Table modification was also simplified as described below.
The new dynamic Variable Table job type gives you the ability to add or modify a variable in a variable table "at runtime". With this feature you can easily add a sort of collaboration between different Job Streams without adding glue code. Indeed, you can dynamically add and modify the value of a variable in a variable table. So, in our file dependencies example, the file name variable could be changed by another application.
Here a screenshot sample, from IBM Workload Scheduler user interface, of the Variable Table job. The variables' value is updated "at runtime" using the dynamic job properties values exported by previous Job in the same Job Stream, once these variables are updated in the variable table they can be accessed by any other Job Stream.
Using the dynamic variables, you can extend the name of your file dependencies. In this release, all the variables into the variable tables have been extended: the variable value changed from 72 to 1024 characters, in this way your file name dependency could reach a longer path. Also the variable name was extended from 16 to 64 characters, so you can easily use a variable mapping.
Depending on the specific scenario, obviously the advantages of new file dependencies could be different. For that reason, we strongly suggest you to participate to IBM Workload Scheduler "Beta program" to learn about and try all of the new IBM Workload Scheduler features, and to stay tuned for latest news.
If you want to talk more about new file dependencies and IBM Workload Scheduler in general, leave a comment below.
See you next time!

Fukushima Information
On 11 March 2011 the Japanese experienced the worst earthquake in their history, followed by a devastating tsunami. These natural disasters have had a serious impact on several Japanese nuclear reactors, principally those at the Fukushima Daiichi site. The Health Physics Society (HPS) is concerned about radiation exposures associated with these reactor problems and desires to keep our members and the concerned public advised on current events associated with the Japanese nuclear plants.
The Health Physics Society (HPS) convened a panel of leading scientific experts on radiation safety at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, on 1 March 2012 for the benefit of invited media personnel. The name of the program was "Risks and Effects of Radiation: Putting Fukushima in Context." Read more here.
In 2013, two years after the accident, HPS Web Operations published Radiation and Risk: Expert Perspectives on this website, a compilation of papers on topics including natural radiation, medical applications of radiation, effects of natural and man-made radiation on the environment, safety controls of nuclear energy production, risk communication, and the regulatory implications of radiation safety.

As stated in the report: "The Committee was charged to provide a clear and concise explanation of the accident events, health physics, and accident cleanup, as well as safety-related issues that emerged. The Committee also evaluated actions that ANS should consider to better communicate with the public during a nuclear event."
Fukushima Decontamination
In "As Fukushima Cleanup Begins, Long-Term Impacts Are Weighed," Winifred Bird reports on the decontamination efforts in the areas surrounding Fukushima. Health Physics Society members Kathryn Higley and John Till were interviewed for the report.
NRC Task Force Review of Insights From Fukushima
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) released "Recommendations for Enhancing Reactor Safety in the 21st Century: The Near-Term Task Force Review of Insights from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Accident." The Near-Term Task Force was established in response to Commission direction to conduct a systematic and methodical review of NRC processes and regulations to determine whether the agency should make additional improvements to its regulatory system and to make recommendations to the Commission for its policy direction, in light of the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.
June 2011 Japanese Government Report to IAEA
The Japanese Government released "Report of Japanese Government to the IAEA Ministerial Conference on Nuclear Safety: The Accident at TEPCO's Fukushima Nuclear Power Stations." This preliminary accident report was prepared for the 20–24 June 2011 International Atomic Energy Agency Ministerial Conference on Nuclear Safety and, as stated in its introduction, "represents a summary of the evaluation of the accident and the lessons learned to date based on the facts gleaned about the situation obtained so far."
Fukushima Release of Radiation and Potential Health Effects
The emotional trauma of the devastating events in Japan is overwhelming. While the members of the Health Physics Society can only offer our condolences for those who have lost loved ones and our support for those still looking for loved ones, we can help put minds at ease regarding the radiation from the Japanese reactors that has been detected in the United States.
Radioactivity has been detected in nearly every state, whether it be in rain water, in the air, or in milk. We understand that the fear that arises from hearing about radioactivity being found nearby can cause increased stress and, sometimes, an overwhelming sense of loss of control. This is why it is important for you to know that the amount of radioactivity being detected in the United States is of no concern; we can drink the milk, eat food out of our gardens, and drink water from our faucets.
As for foods that may be imported from Japan, there are three safety nets in place so you can feel safe eating what you buy at the grocery store. The first safety net is the ban on importing food from within Japan's evacuation zone (within about 20 kilometers of the nuclear reactors), the second safety net is Japan's monitoring of other foods prior to leaving Japan, and the third safety net is the United States Department of Agriculture, which monitors and inspects our imported food.
It is important to stay informed about the radiation levels that are being detected so you can make the best decisions for your family. With this in mind, we will continue to update our website with new information regarding the Fukushima reactors.
We will also continue to follow results from the radionuclide-sampling stations throughout the country used by the Environmental Protection Agency (you can look at them at https://www.epa.gov/enviro/radnet-overview) and the monitoring network by the 104 operating nuclear power facilities (monitoring air, water, milk, and foods) to be able to provide you with up-to-date information.

ASME Report on Fukushima and Nuclear Safety in the Future
An American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Task Force released recommendations for a new nuclear safety construct in June 2012. It reaches beyond the traditional regulatory framework of adequate protection of public health and safety to minimize sociopolitical and economic consequences caused by radioactive releases from accidents.
The March 2011 earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan, causing the accident at Fukushima Daiichi, exposed potential vulnerabilities of nuclear power plants to extreme events. ASME President Victoria A. Rockwell commissioned a Presidential Task Force to review the events, examine the global implications, and make recommendations on ASME's role in addressing issues and lessons learned.

How to Set Up a Payroll Item List in QuickBooks 2014
The Payroll Item list identifies items that appear on employee payroll check stubs. If you're using an outside payroll service bureau to handle your payroll — and this isn't a bad idea — you don't even need to worry about the Payroll Item list.
If you're using the QuickBooks Enhanced Payroll Service, again, don't worry about the Payroll Item list. (In either case, the QuickBooks folks set up the payroll items that you use for recording payroll.) And in the case of Intuit's full-blown "we-do-everything" Payroll Service, you don't even need to track payroll inside QuickBooks, because the QuickBooks people do it at their office location on their computers.
If you do need to add payroll items, follow these steps:
Choose the Lists→Payroll Item List command.
QuickBooks displays the Payroll Item list window.
To add a new Payroll Item, click the Payroll Item button and then choose New from the Payroll Item menu.
QuickBooks displays the Add New Payroll Item dialog box. You can choose to set up a new payroll item by using either the EZ Set Up method or the Custom Set Up method:
EZ Set Up: If you want QuickBooks to help you, and you're setting up a common payroll item, click the EZ Set Up button, click Next, and then simply follow the onscreen instructions.
Custom Set Up: If you want to perform a custom setup of a payroll item, click the Custom Set Up button and then click Next. QuickBooks walks you through a multiple-screen interview — like the EasyStep Interview — that asks you about the payroll item to set up.
For example, the first dialog box that QuickBooks displays asks you to identify the type of payroll item that you want to create. You answer this question by selecting one of the radio buttons and then clicking Next.
Name the payroll item.
After you identify the type of payroll item, you name it. QuickBooks provides another version of the Add New Payroll Item dialog box that includes a field you fill in to give the new item a name.
To finish the payroll item setup, click the Next button to move through the remaining payroll item setup questions.
You identify the name of the government agency to which the liability is paid, the taxpayer identification number that uniquely identifies you to the taxing agency, the liability account that you use to track the items, the tax form line that you use to report the item, the rules that QuickBooks should use for calculating the item (such as whether the item is subject to taxes), and a couple of other miscellaneous pieces of data.
After you supply all this information and click the Finish button (which appears on the last version of the Add New Payroll Item dialog box), QuickBooks adds the new payroll item to the Payroll Item list.
The Payroll Item menu supplies commands that are useful for working with the Payroll Item list. In addition to the commands that you use to add an item to the list, the menu supplies commands for deleting payroll items, renaming payroll items, making payroll items active, and printing the list of payroll items.

LITCHFIELD, Conn. -- A Saratoga Springs man was sentenced to three and a half years in prison for his part in a knife-point hold up of a New Milford Radio Shack. Shane DeVietro, 23, was sentenced Tuesday, the second half of a duo accused of robbing the electronics store to support a heroin addiction and to seek revenge for the termination of DeVietro's then-girlfriend, Julia Jennings, 24. During the robbery, DeVietro was accused of holding a knife to a female employee's stomach, then pushing a male employee to the ground before the pair fled. Twenty-four hours after the robbery, DeVietro overdosed on heroin. Days later, in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., DeVietro was convinced by his father to confess to local police. Before being taken into custody following his sentencing, DeVietro was released on $99,000 bond and was working in the food industry, his defense attorney said. Almost 10 family members or friends appeared in Litchfield Superior Court to support DeVietro, or to speak on behalf of him. Sister Lauren DeVietro was too emotional to speak, her voice breaking after the first sentence of her statement. "He is not this robbery...he is not heroin. He is a man who has come to heroin," said a statement written by Lauren DeVietro and read aloud by DeVietro's Danbury defense attorney, Vicki H. Hutchinson. "You haven't seen him be a good son, a loving brother," the statement said. Family members requested that Ginocchio order that DeVietro to receive drug treatment while in jail. DeVietro was sentenced to 15 years in prison, execution suspended after three and a half years served, and five years probation. DeVietro will also have to pay restitution to the owners of the Danbury Road Radio Shack. Litchfield Superior Court Judge James Ginocchio sentenced DeVietro to the lower end of a possible plea deal sentence. The plea deal called for a sentence of 15 years suspended after between three and five served. "I don't think you're an evil person or a hardened criminal," said Ginocchio, who said he would give DeVietro "consideration" because he appeared remorseful. DeVietro could hardly speak through his own tears, saying, "I just want to turn my life around." A member of the large group there to support DeVietro shouted, "I love you," as he was led into custody by judicial marshals. This story was provided by The Register Citizen, a sister publication with The Saratogian in the Digital First Media group. Reach Jessica Glenza at 860-489-3121 ext. 324.
