How can a Biology tutor help you?
The study of biology focuses on the commonalities amongst all living things, no matter how minuscule. This includes concepts like DNA, cells, respiratory systems, and evolution. There is a broad spectrum of concepts within the subject, so students need to stay on top of their studies in order to excel in the course. If you fall behind, it can be difficult to catch up, as there is a lot of material to cover in each lesson. A personal tutor can help you build your understanding of all of the information in your biology course that may be confusing you. The educational directors at Varsity Tutors can assist you in discovering New Jersey biology tutoring that can help you stay on top of your course.
Biology can progress from instructing on the anatomy of a common cell to discussing the theory of evolution. The information moves quickly, and in order to understand how all of the living systems in the world are interrelated, you need to understand all of the information presented to you. Wrapping your head around complex systems during a single class period can be a challenge. Biology may require you to work on your own time to study. If you're not a person who can learn by simply rereading a passage, then working with a New Jersey biology tutor may be an excellent solution. Your personal tutor can present information to you in a manner that works well for you. Every student has a preferred learning style, and a one-on-one tutor can cater their teaching method to match your learning needs. Whether this means providing tactile demonstrations or educational videos, your tutor can come prepared with the necessary materials.

Vitamin D is everywhere. You hear about it on the news, in magazines, even right here on EmpowHer.com. Some tout it as the new super vitamin, yet why are so many Americans deficient? It is fortified in milk, bread, cereals, and the sun right above our heads (unless you live in Portland like me) yet studies show even those living in the brightest spots are not receiving enough.
So let's review. . .What is Vitamin D?
First of all, it is a fat soluble vitamin that is metabolized by ultraviolet light (particularly UVB) or from our diet. Vitamin D is taken into our liver where it is converted into 25(OH) Vitamin D3 (calcidiol) which is the major form in our body and the kind that we test. To become biologically active, it goes through an extra step in the kidneys where it turns into 1,25(OH) Vitamin D3 (calcitriol). This active form only hangs around for about 6 hours where as the testable form remains up to 2 weeks. Additionally, once activated, Vitamin D becomes a hormone.
But, Dr. Jones, I am a sun-bunny! I live for its warmth and love to be tan. Of course, but sunscreen with a SPF 8 and above eliminates 93-99% of your vitamin D absorption. This is why those living in Florida and southern California are depleted. The same holds true for people with darker pigmented skin. Melanin blocks absorption as well.
What does it do?
1) Vitamin D has a major role in calcium and phosphorus balance. This, of course, means we need enough to improve bone health, reduce fracture risk, and reduce bone pain.
2) It helps your body manage an autoimmune disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, lupus, and others.
3) There are receptors in the heart muscle so it improves heart contractions and vascular tone. There are links to low levels and myocardial infarction risk.
4) It is important to your renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system which helps monitor blood pressure, electrolytes, and water balance in your body.
5) Vitamin D is potentially anti-cancer! There are receptors in your colon, brain, breast (and prostate for you male readers).

Movie: Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs
It's always great to see a movie in a theater full of giggling kids. Their delighted laughter cannot help but make you chuckle, too; and at "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs," you may even find that you are often the one starting the hilarity. For with this third installment of the successful animated franchise, the folks at Blue Sky Studios/20th Century Fox have done it again, peppering their 3-D comedy with plenty of jokes that adults can love.
The whole "Ice Age" clan is back as the new movie begins. Nowadays, those loveable wooly mammoths Manny (Ray Romano) and Ellie (Queen Latifah) are expecting the birth of their first baby, while Diego the Saber Tooth tiger (Denis Leary) and Sid the sloth (John Leguizamo) are feeling a bit left out. Sid inadvertently finds three very large (and unattended) eggs, decides he wants to be a parent, too, and the "Dawn of the Dinosaurs" adventure begins.
Like "UP" earlier this summer, the 3-D element of this beautifully animated film simply enhances everything you see. There's none of the gimmicks from the old days of 3-D, like paddleballs sailing out into the audience; instead, there's simply a depth and realism that truly make you believe you are watching real characters wander across a real landscape. Of course, that landscape is the snow-covered expanse of the world during the Ice Age.
Even that changes as Sid's new babies hatch. The three cuties look like nothing our mammals have ever encountered, because, of course, they are baby dinosaurs! And when the dino's mother grabs Sid up along with her babies, the rest of his "Ice Age" family have to follow to try to rescue him, into a deep cave where another wild world is waiting.
Following the themes of the previous movies – that "family" is what you make it, not necessarily what blood creates, and that once you are part of a family, that never changes – "Ice Age: The Dawn of the Dinosaurs" throws out life lessons along with the laughs. With a fast pace, just enough scary and exciting adventure sequences to keep the kids on the edge of their seats but not crying, and a hilarious new plotline featuring Scrat, the squirrel with a one-track nut mind, this is a comedy that the whole family will love.
Rated: PG
Stars: Voices of Ray Romano, Queen Latifah, Denis Leary, John Leguizamo, Simon Pegg
Directors: Carlos Saldana and Mike Thurmeier

Key Points
Ecology is the analysis of how organisms interact with each other and their physical surroundings.
The distribution and abundance of organisms on Earth are formed by either biotic, living-organism-related, along with abiotic, nonliving or bodily, variables.
Ecology is analyzed at several levels, such as a receptor, people, ecosystem, community, and biosphere.
Welcome to ecology!
Perhaps you have chased through a woods and noticed that the unbelievable diversity of organisms residing, from ferns to trees into mushrooms that the size of dishes? Or chosen a road trip and saw that the landscape shifts beyond the window, then shifting into plains to tall stands of walnut out of pine forest? If this is that's the case, you've acquired a timeless flavor of ecology, the division of biology that assesses how organisms interact with one another and with their physical surroundings.
Ecology is not just about species-rich woods, pristine jungle, or panoramic vistas, however. Maybe you have, for example, discovered even, or cockroaches living mold on your own shower, below your mattress fungus? In that case, then you have seen examples of ecology.
Biotic and abiotic variables
One central aim of ecology is to understand the distribution and abundance of living things from the physical atmosphere. As an example, a neighborhood park or your garden has a group of crops, animals, and parasites in relation to a student on the side of the globe's garden.
These routines in nature really are driven by interactions among cattle in addition to between organisms and their physical surroundings.
For instance, let us return into our shower mold. Carpeting is likely to look in the past, say. Why would this be the situation?
Perhaps the mold requires a specific quantity of water to develop, and this quantity of water can be located just in the shower. Water availability is a good illustration of an abiotic, or nonliving, the element that may impact the distribution of cattle.
Possibly mold feeds from dead skin cells located at the shower, although maybe not at the uterus. Availability of nutrition is a good illustration.

Student group sues Macomb college over free speech
How the system keeps some problem cops on the streets. The Detroit Free Press investigated police misconduct in Michigan. Here's what we found. Detroit Free Press
A conservative nonprofit student group at Macomb County Community College has sued the school, saying its policy of requiring permission for public speech violates members' First Amendment rights.
Attorneys representing Turning Point USA say the school's chapter is challenging the school's expressive activity policy in a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday at U.S. District Court in Detroit.
The organization has college chapters across the country. Officials say it trains students to "promote the principles of freedom, free markets and limited government."
More at freep.com:
The complaint follows an April incident in which chapter members, including one in a T. Rex costume, said college police told them they couldn't speak with other students, pass out literature or collect signatures on campus because they didn't have administrators' approval.
College spokeswoman Jeanne Nichol says the school doesn't comment on pending litigation.

St John Bread and Wine – Spitalfields
St.John Bread and Wine is like a sophisticated greasy spoon with a simple, smart and unfussy interior. They serve British food such as porridge with prunes, bacon sandwiches and Eccles cakes, there aren't many places where you can get Eccles cakes, little buns packed with fruit and covered in flaky pastry, my dad loves them. I always like to order toast with honey though (as they have their own bakery producing top notch bread) and Earl Grey tea, it's all good stuff my friends. St. John's is great for dinner too as it's buy lorazepam online no prescription needed very much a proper restaurant, although the food is pretty out there, I'm talking sprats, Ox heart and Foie Gras, ooh not sure about a place that serves Foie Gras, I wish I didn't know that but it has a nice and informal atmosphere and the bread, did I mention how good the bread was?

The 10-meter-high ceilings, retro benches and chairs, brick wall art and a web of vintage metal pipe lamps combine to create the feel of a cottage brewery that has breathed a new life into an old abandoned factory in Brooklyn, New York. An open bar features the facility's state-of-the-art brews brought in from Germany, while guests can even perform their own brewing experiments in a mini lab.
With the classy atmosphere and the meticulously thought-out decor, coupled with the soaring popularity of craft beer here, the brewery run by Shinsegae Food has become one of Seoul's hottest spots for a night out. Four months into its opening, customers may have to brave a two-hour queue during the dinner rush, despite its some 1,300-square-meter space.
For Jung Sung-gyu, the chief executive and creative director of The Square Design Co. Ltd. who orchestrated its industrial facelift, the project brought about a turnaround in his 15-year career. One of the most talked about up-and-coming interior designers in Korea, the 42-year-old is now being courted by retail and food giants including AK Plaza, Namyang Dairy Products Co. and Sun at Food.

"It was an adventure for Shinsegae to have me do that job given that the company works with major design houses and many renowned designers who dominate the industry, but I rather belong to the periphery," he said in a recent interview with The Korea Herald.
"When I asked the company's design chief why he hired me, he said, 'It's because you do all the work on your own, whereas big firms and designers would hand it over to their staff.' So I tried hard not to let them down, and the chance ended up being a turning point in my life."
His relationship with the nation's top retail group dates back to 2012 when he designed a brunch restaurant named Egg Talks for a different subsidiary. He set up his own business in 2013 and now has a workforce of 15.

|The exterior of Devil's Door (Park Hyun-koo/The Korea Herald)
He started work on the Devil's Door project in January 2014, and the design took almost a whole year. The sheer size of the space and details aside, a legislative amendment prompted him to spend four months designing smoking areas alone to satiate a Shinsegae executive's desire for the "best smoking and restrooms in the country."
"Jung's design fit our concept ― our goal was to show production equipment in a factory-like setting. I think this is what captivates many customers; they love to make beer on their own and drink it," said Oh Jin-young, the pub's brewmaster.
Following a years-long sweep of Scandinavian styles, the interior design world is witnessing an ascent of industrial concepts. Its raw, seemingly incomplete look and neutral tones increasingly entice those who cherish the function of objects as much as style.
The Scandinavian concepts propelled the beginning of the emergence of "rawness," Jung said, closing what he called the era of instant design. The fresh fad caters to the people's growing needs for the natural, unrefined.
"It's equivalent to not wanting any more instant coffee and junk food; communicating with space is just like tasting food," he said. "People love to read others' blogs and watch Afreeca TV. That's today's trend ― to communicate with raw stuff."
Powered by the stellar success of Devil's Door, 2015 is set be one of his busiest years yet, with his company carrying out projects ranging from cafes to restaurants to hotels.
Among them are a Facade Coffee espresso cafe to be launched later this year at AK Plaza's Suwon branch in Gyeonggi Province; Namyang's upcoming homemade teriyaki restaurant called From the Farm in Pangyo, Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province; a new Sun branch at Food's Sichuan House in southern Seoul; and a tourist hotel in Jeju.
Jung in particular is mesmerized by hotels as they combine various elements such as lodging, restaurants, cafes and often a wedding hall and convention center. Newly opened boutique hotels in Jeju designed by him, namely Grabel and La Mer, are gaining popularity among travelers from home and abroad.
"Hotels and restaurants need to be conceptual and have good storytelling, for which it is crucial to have an objective viewpoint so as to appeal to a large audience. For homes, in contrast, satisfying your client in each component is key," he said.
While basking in the steady growth of Korea's interior design industry, he is turning his sights overseas. In Hong Kong and Singapore, for instance, markets are seeing growing needs and designers are given greater leeway in their creative work, he said. Jung secured a few projects in Indonesia but all of them were from Koreans.
To him, design is just like human beings. After all, it's all about building relationships between different entities, and the patience and resolve to prop them up.
"Design is difficult, or probably impossible, to define. Once you define it, you may be trapped in that definition and create bias," Jung added.
"Just like every person differs from one another, every space has its own character and room for different expression. There cannot be twins."

What Ligtning & GData builds are you using? I can't confirm this behavior. If I am reading your report correctly, you are saying that you can create a repeating event via GData, confirm that it is indeed created in the Google calendar, delete the calendar *just* from Lightning, add it back, and the recurring event is lost. If you create the repeating event from the Google web interface instead, does it appear (and behave properly) in Lightning, and if you subsequently remove the calendar from Lightning and add it back, does that same event show up?
I'm using Lightning 1.7 and Google Calender Provider 0.16. Almost right ;-) 1. I had my google calender in Lightning. 2. Than I created a repeating event using the web interface. 3. The event showed up correctly in Lightning as well. 4. I've removed my google calender from Lightning only (i.e. the google calender was still available in the web interface). 5. I've added the calender again to Lightning. 6. "Normal" events were imported. Repeating events were missing in Lightning (but still present in the web interfacte).
Comment 3•

Do you have caching enabled for the calendar in Lightning? So, by re-reading your steps, it appears that: 1. Repeating events created in the web interface for Google Calendar while the GData Provider is configured to access that same calendar in Lightning *do* appear in Lightning. 2. Repeating events created in the web interface for Google Calendar while *no* corresponding GData-accessed calendar exists in Lightning do not appear *when* the calendar is created in Lightning. This is still difficult to follow, logistically. Can you try creating the calendar not using GData, but instead using CalDAV, and see what you get? I'll try to recreate this situation in the interim. Do you have any other devices/applications which access your Google calendar, and if so, are they impacted in any way? I'm trying to understand whether there is some "extra" data being introduced into these events (even when created in the web interface) which would cause them to *not* display/sync in Lightning.
Yes, this sound like what I did. I use no other devices to access the calender. Only the webinterface and Lightning. Caching was enabled in Lightning. After disabling the Cache, however, the repeating events are corretly displayed! But after re-enabling the cache, the repeating events are again missing.
I tried switching the caching on and off and noticed that other events are affected as well, i.e., some other events disappear as well with caching enabled. Currently it seems to me that only events in the past (i.e. before today) are affected.

Now we're getting to it. Try this: 1. Turn of caching for all calendars. 2. Close Thunderbird/SeaMonkey/Firefox (whatever app is running Lightning). 3. Locate your profile directory in the filesystem. 4. Navigate to the calendar-data directory under your profile directory. 5. Rename the cache.sqlite file to cache.sqlite.old. 6. Start the application. 7. Ensure that the repeating events are visible in the calendar, per your previous comment. 8. Enable caching for the Google calendar, and allow it to build the cache. 9. Close & re-open the application. 10. Verify that the cached data is indeed still displaying the recurring events. I think this is specifically a cache problem where the cache isn't getting cleared out when the calendar is removed, and for some reason, when a calendar of the same name is recreated, and we "re-use" the old cached data, these previously-cached recurring events are being ignored instead of getting refreshed from the live data. Right now, I'd just like to narrow down what's happening, and then let Philipp deal with the actual coding fix, as I think it's well beyond my capabilities.
I followed your instruction without success. After deleting the cache.sqlite file and re-enabling the cache, the recurring events were again missing.

(In reply to heXler81 from comment #7) > I followed your instruction without success. > After deleting the cache.sqlite file and re-enabling the cache, the > recurring events were again missing. That is indeed odd that recurring events are still missing. Please enable calendar.debug.log and calendar.debug.log.verbose in the advanced config editor, and let's see what we can capture when building a new cache file, perhaps. Is there anything special about the Google calendar? Is it shared? Is it a secondary calendar?
There is nothing special about my calendar. It is not shared and it is my primary calender. When Lightning tries to sync the missing event I see the following messages in the log: [calGoogleCalendar] Logging calIEvent: id:s82fth8oebl7q7j02h40dsjluk editurl:[private data] created:2012/08/15 06:51:16 Europe/Berlin isDate=0 nativeTime=1345006276000000 updated:2012/08/15 06:51:16 Europe/Berlin isDate=0 nativeTime=1345006276000000 title:[private data] content:null transparency:TRANSPARENT status:CONFIRMED startTime:2012/10/01 08:00:00 Europe/Berlin isDate=0 nativeTime=1349071200000000 endTime:2012/10/01 13:00:00 Europe/Berlin isDate=0 nativeTime=1349089200000000 location:null privacy:DEFAULT sequence:0 alarmLastAck:null snoozeTime:null isOccurrence: false Organizer: ID: mailto:[private data] Name: [private data] Rsvp: FALSE Is Organizer: yes Role: null Status: null Attendees: recurrence: no alarms: no [calGoogleCalendar] Parsing entry: [object Element] [calGoogleCalendar] Error syncing items: TypeError: oid.parent is not a function [calCachedCalendar] replayChangesOn finished.

Thanks for this. It looks like the errant code is in js/calGoogleCalendar.js, starting at line 1250: if (aIsFullSync && item.recurrenceInfo) { // On a full synchronization, we can go ahead and pre-parse // all exceptions and then add the item at once. This way we // make sure for each (let oid in gdataXPath(xml, 'atom:feed/atom:entry[gd:originalEvent/@id="' + item.id + '"]')) { // Get specific fields so we can speed up the parsing process let status = gdataXPathFirst(oid, 'atom:entry/gd:eventStatus/@value').substring(39); if (status == "canceled") { let rId = gdataXPathFirst(oid, 'atom:entry/gd:when/@startTime'); let rDate = cal.fromRFC3339(rId, timezone); item.recurrenceInfo.removeOccurrenceAt(rDate); cal.LOG("[calGoogleCalendar] Negative exception " + rId + "/" + rDate); } else { // Parse the exception and modify the current item let excItem = XMLEntryToItem(oid.parent(), timezone, this); if (excItem) { // Google uses the status field to reflect negative // exceptions. excItem.calendar = this; item.recurrenceInfo.modifyException(excItem, true); } } } } Perhaps something changed in the Google API, but for some reason, it doesn't seem to like oid.parent(). I'm hoping that Philipp can comment further, as I simply don't know enough about this code to debug. It *does* look like a bug, though (or a mismatch between what Google wants and how we're making the request). Good job with the log!

Confirmed with GData 0.19pre (2012-09-25 nightly). Turning cache off properly renders repeating events; turning it back on makes them disappear. It does not appear to be stale cache data, either; I've rebuilt the cache several times. I'm also seeing: Warning: Use of getAttributeNodeNS() is deprecated. Use getAttributeNS() instead. Source file: moz-nullprincipal:{151cda4c-830d-47a2-b1b2-95bbe05bd208} in the error log, though this may be unrelated (I am seeing an issue where selecting a calendar via RMB *after* the first time appears to open the context menu on that item but then selecting properties brings up the properties for the next calendar *below* the currently-selected one. I think the above has to do with that and not the calendar cache - unless someone else is seeing this entry, as well). And: Warning: Use of attributes' ownerDocument attribute is deprecated. Source file: moz-nullprincipal:{151cda4c-830d-47a2-b1b2-95bbe05bd208} which is documented (reported) in: bug 771417 - Warning: Use of attributes' ownerDocument attribute is deprecated. bug 791491 - Lightning w/GDATA Provider, hangs Thunderbird 15 http://blog.mozilla.org/calendar/2012/07/please-test-print-support-in-lightning-1-7b2/ so not sure if directly related to this issue. Also, I am not seeing problems with read-only (public) calendars with repeating events (holidays), but these events may not be repeating and instead may actually be individual entries.

Confirming based on the various reports. Please ignore the deprecated warnings mentioned in previous comment, they are not related. If using GData provider without cache is not an option for you just switch to using the built-in CalDAV provider instead. Instruction can be found on https://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=99358#sunbird
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Summary: Google calendar provider: Repeating events are not always synchronized if offline cache is enabled → Repeating events are not always synchronized if offline cache is enabled [Error syncing items: TypeError: oid.parent is not a function]

From a quick test the error seems to happen only for repeatings events with an EXDATE property (e.g. a single occurrence of the event was deleted) - but only if the occurrence was deleted using the Google Calendar web interface. If it was deleted from within Lightning it will not trigger the error.

Thanks Philipp! Applied the patch, and then had to turn off all Google calendars (4 read-only; 1 read/write) and re-enable one at a time, giving each time to rebuild the cache (my SeaMonkey crashed a couple times before I decided to turn off all calendars). CPU load was as expected (approximately 50%), with considerable disk activity (not thrashing, however). I monitored the size of cache.sqlite, which likely had not been updating properly for some time, as it is now more than double the size it was when it started (now 14MB), and compacting makes little difference. The database *does* validate, and cached entries in the past as well as the future appear to have come down from the remote calendars. Nice work!

Tested Fix v1 on two systems, and I'm finding that with cache enabled, I am unable to save new (or edit and save existing) events. Clicking Save and Close does nothing. Disabling cache allows the event to save and close.

Lewis, do you get any errors when clicking save and close? Does clicking save only work? I've tested this on my system and it seems to work without trouble. Thanks for testing this!
Comment 22•

I'll get a log snippet later this morning, Philipp. What I found in a few more minutes of testing earlier was that I *could* create a new event and save it, but *already cached* events would not save (either save or save & close) upon editing. Apologies for not posting the log with comment 20. More, when I get back to the office.

I applied the patch to 0.19pre running (on this particular system) under Lightning 1.8b1. Perhaps it was my mistake. Here's the log entry: Timestamp: 10/03/2012 11:27:18 AM Error: [Exception... "'JavaScript component does not have a method named: "modifyItemOrUseCache"' when calling method: [calIChangeLog::modifyItemOrUseCache]" nsresult: "0x80570030 (NS_ERROR_XPC_JSOBJECT_HAS_NO_FUNCTION_NAMED)" location: "JS frame :: resource://calendar/modules/calUtils.jsm -> file:///home/lewis/.thunderbird/3p1xi1te.default/extensions/%7Be2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103%7D/calendar-js/calCachedCalendar.js :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 768" data: no] Source File: resource://calendar/modules/calUtils.jsm -> file:///home/lewis/.thunderbird/3p1xi1te.default/extensions/%7Be2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103%7D/calendar-js/calCachedCalendar.js Line: 768 If this was my mistake, Philipp, I sincerely apologize for jumping the gun. The above cropped up when trying to dismiss an alarm (same symptom as editing a cached event).

Lewis, you mixed incompatible builds from different branches and therefore caused the problem yourself. If testing on comm-beta use a corresponding builds of Lightning 1.8 + GData Provider 0.17pre. Builds from different branches won't work here.
Comment 25•
7 years ago
Oh I hope this is not another problem like in bug 788004. Lewis, could you apply the patch for aurora there (the one with wrapInstance) and check if the problem goes away? I don't think 0.19 should be a problem in this specific case since gdata provider is js only, but you could try the gdata-provider from here: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/lightning/candidates/1.8-candidates/build1/
Comment 26•

Will do, Philipp.
Comment 27•

GData provider 0.19pre or 0.18pre won't work with Lightning 1.8 because the interface for cached calendars did change in Lightning 1.9 with Bug 756052.

Confirmed that this was *my* error. Applying the patch to build 1 as suggested and re-testing works fine. Apologies again for the false alarm, and thanks (again) for the fix to this cache thing!

Skipping breakfast is not an option for me . . . at least if I want to be in any condition to be around other humans. The problem is I like to hit the ground running in the morning so taking the time to stop and actually cook breakfast drives me nuts.
Overnight oats are the perfect option for me because I don't have to do anything except grab a spoon and pull it out of the fridge. It's nice and filling too without feeling heavy so I love starting my day off with this easy breakfast recipe.
I'd heard the concept of overnight oats talked about for a while but hadn't gotten around to try them. Instead of cooking your oatmeal you soak it overnight. The result is wonderfully creamy oats that you can add endless flavor combinations to.
- 3/4 cup oats
- 1 cup milk
- 1 T chia seeds
- 1/2 cup mixed berries
- 1/2 a banana, sliced
- 1/4 cup pecans
- 1 T brown sugar or maple syrup
In a glass container, combine your oats, milk, chia seeds, banana slices, mixed berries (I love strawberries and blueberries but use whatever is in season) and brown sugar. Cover and store in the fridge overnight.
The next morning, top with extra berries and pecans and enjoy. That's it! I promised it was easy.
You can experiment with different mix-ins and toppings to add some variety. I love that I can change this up so that I never get bored with my breakfast.
Have you ever tried overnight oats? What's your favorite flavor combination?

The chief TV critic for The New York Times says Matt Lauer's performance as moderator of a forum that brought together Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton was "a farce."
"In an event aboard the decommissioned aircraft carrier Intrepid, the 'Today' host was lost at sea," James Poniewozik wrote in Thursday's editions of The Times.
"Seemingly unprepared on military and foreign policy specifics, he performed like a soldier sent on a mission without ammunition, beginning with a disorganized offensive, ending in a humiliating retreat."
The criticism came after Lauer grilled the Republican and Democratic presidential candidates at the NBC News' Commander-in-Chief Forum, which was Wednesday aboard the Intrepid in New York City.
"There's a difference between an interviewer who has questions and one who has knowledge, and Mr. Lauer illustrated it," Poniewozik writes.
"He seemed to be plowing through a checklist, not listening in the moment in a way that led to productive follow-ups."

Pineapple Rings Dried
Product Description
Our dried pineapple rings are super sweet and delicious, a fun treat for kids. They are also great when finely chopped and mixed in with nuts and seeds for a wholesome and filling trail mix.
Health Benefits:
Pineapple contains the enzyme bromelain, which helps to digest dietary proteins. This enzyme also acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory that has shown to aid recovery from injury and exercise. Pineapples are a rich source in manganese that works to nourish the brain and nervous system, improving memory. The drying process does reduce this mineral to a degree.
Recipes with Dried Pineapple:
Dried pineapple is great when finely chopped and mixed with nuts, seeds and oats for a wholesome breakfast muesli or try mixing into your pancake batter for a sweet treat. They are great as an occasional lunch box snack for kids, due to the high sugar content and can be blended with muffin ingredients for a processed sugar alternative.
Country of Origin
Product of Thailand
The Benefits
Dried pineapple is a great source of vitamin c as well as containing trace amounts of calcium. Dried pineapple is very low in salt and fat.

THU: Listening To Students With ASD In Higher Education (Gill Marshall)
Cloud created by:
Gill Marshall
4 January 2018
What is the experience of students with ASD in higher education?
What are the challenges for students with autism in HE?
What kinds of learning work best for students with ASD?
What technologies can be used?
Is universal design the answer?
It should be recognised that young people with autism who are starting university have often come from a school system that produced the following statements:
"We are stuck in a system that wants the child to fail before help is offered." (Parent)
"Autistic pupils are probably the SEN group I need the most guidance with and have received the least guidance on." (A teacher)
"The school shattered my confidence – they had no understanding … they were unable to provide 'reasonable adjustments'." (Young person on autism spectrum)
(Quotes from NAS campaign email launching the #HeldBack campaign, http://nas-email.org.uk/YA3-5BI2K-FFA2G5ROAC/cr.aspx?v=1)
It is imperative that, on entering higher education after such a negative experience, students should feel that they no longer have to fight to achieve basic rights to study and work towards their personal goals. Students on the autistic spectrum are relatively invisible in the disabled student community unless they disclose. Disclosure is an issue for many who will have experienced years of bullying and spent much of their lives trying to 'fit in' with the norms and expectations of their society. Understanding of the condition is poor both in society generally and among their teachers and peers. Support in campus-based universities exists but is patchy and frequently depends on the student asking for help, thereby disclosing to their teachers and peers. This often happens only when the student has reached crisis point.
I will look at the challenges that face students with autism by exploring their social online spaces and listening to their stories. More and more of these blogs, videos and presentations are beginning to shine a light on ASD and give a voice to those who have previously been ashamed of who they are. Some 'Autistics' are radicalized, taking control of their media, championing neurodiversity and demanding to be heard and respected for who they are rather than being labelled as disabled and needing support.
Many autistic people have unique skills and abilities that current educational practices, and society in general, are unable to even see, let alone unlock and develop to their true potential.
I will investigate current academic research that looks at how students with ASD are being supported, or not, and what recommendations are being made.
I will touch on the political and economic climate that determines how these students are currently treated and how social and technical solutions can encourage and achieve inclusion. Policy and practice should be based on listening to students' voices. ASD students know what kinds of learning and support might work for them, we just have to listen.

Family musical performance gets everyone on their feet!
Can you dance to the "De Colores"? If you can't, Jose-Luis Orozco will surely show you how.
Working his typical magic with a familiar crowd, Orozco wooed more than 300 children and adults to their feet at the Cesar Chavez Library last Saturday, April 13th, in a concert where he performed many of his popular hits. Orozco also led a parent workshop on the role music plays in a child's development before performing. Orozco's son, Pablo Orozco-Castro, who is a musician and counselor in Watsonville, joined him for the last few songs on stage.
"We are proud to offer family-friendly events like these that bring hundreds of community members together to enjoy literacy and learning through music, " said Ernesto Lizaola, Community Education Manager.
"I'm also a child at heart," one grandmother said, as she sang the lyrics to the song "Mi Burrito" and danced. Orozco's music promotes Latin American culture, and includes a catalog of 15 CDs, as well as 3 award-winning songbooks.
This program was funded through a grant from the California State Library Literacy Services, and more than 165 books were given away to help families build home libraries. For more information about this program, please contact Cathy Andrews, Senior Librarian at (831) 758-7915.

The brand is the most important asset for any company. Branding is a single most important strategy which differenciate you from your competition.
Small businesses often struggle with the idea of branding. They think it is a game of big players like Coke and Pepsi.
But now we are in digital age, the cost of building a brand has been minimized.

Arizona Saints Heed Counsel, Prepare for Emergencies
"Members of the LDS Church have been counseled for many years to be prepared for adversity," states the Emergency Preparedness and Response page on LDS.org, "With the guidance of Church leaders, individual members and families should prepare to be self-reliant in times of personal or widespread emergency," the site says.
Several Latter-day Saint families in Arizona say they have experienced the blessings of heeding this counsel.
For Danell Tarwater and her husband Bob of the McQueen 2nd Ward, in the Chandler Stake, preparedness has been a way of life. "Growing up on a farm, I could understand why you needed to be prepared and how to do that," she says. "A lot of times we would go into town to get groceries only once a month."
Even then, much of what they bought wasn't pre-packaged and prepared food, but was whole grains, fresh produce or slabs of meat—items that needed to be prepared and preserved at home.
"When the Church came out saying we need to be prepared, it made sense to me. I was familiar with the concept and the skills needed to be self-reliant."
Others saw Sister Tarwater as a great resource. "Leaders in various wards and stakes began asking me to share information, and I put together some lessons about preparing food, making bread and other topics," she says. She went on to teach courses at Mesa Community College, and, today, Sister Tarwater has compiled the information she has gleaned over the years into a three-book series:The Secrets of Survival Handbook, The Secrets of Survival Recipes and The Secrets of Survival Healthcare and First Aid Manual. (For more about these books, visit www.inglestonepublishing.com.)
Sister Tarwater believes the idea of preparedness seems to be picking up. "Even in Wal-Mart there are items for preppers," she says. Still, "everything seems so rosy, many people just haven't seen that preparation needs to happen now."
"A natural disaster or a crisis in the economy could leave us with no place to go to find gas, food and water," she says. "It's scary to me. I don't know why it isn't for everyone else."
Dennis Lawrence and his wife, Mimi, members of the Remington Heights Ward, in the Queen Creek West Stake, focus on emergency preparation because, "Number 1, it's a commandment, like tithing. Whether you prepare or not is a matter of obedience."
"We have tried to prepare by stockpiling food and other resources to last us a minimum of a year," Brother Lawrence says. Their stores include what he refers to as "short-term" items, those that are purchased fresh or canned from a grocery store and are more along the lines of "normal" everyday foods. In addition, they have a mixture of long-term foods, including freeze-dried and dehydrated foods, wheat and other grains.
The Lawrences also have accumulated fuel, big tents and other camping equipment and communication devices, including a short-wave radio; and they have developed certain skills as well.
"I do a lot of canning, especially pressure canning," Brother Lawrence says, adding he has canned "mostly meat, including beef chunks, hamburger, chicken, pork, sausage and even hot dogs."
"For the 41 years we've been married, we've been pretty well preparedness minded," he says. "Our philosophy has been a little different. We never have bought a new car. We buy used. We don't take expensive vacations. We don't spend money on the latest and greatest devices and gadgets. We spend it on preparedness."
"We view food storage as insurance. With health insurance and car insurance, you hope you never have to use it, but you make sure to have it in place just in case. The same thing with food storage. It's good insurance, but if you wait until it's time to use it, it's too late."
As the High Priest Group Leader in his ward, Brother Lawrence tries to encourage others to learn the skills and make the necessary preparations.
He says, as they do, many people say something to the effect, "I didn't think I had the resources or finances to make it happen, but all of a sudden extra money just appeared when I finally decided to do it."
Jacque Gurney is AMAZING! I think learning to can food is amazing, having jars of peaches and fruits is such a benefit.
Love stories of people who have a desire to prepare for any situation. Great examples!

There are various channels of representation available to Cambridge graduate students, at college, faculty, and university level, as well as further afield.
The Graduate Union (GU) is the body co-ordinating graduate representation in the University.
University Representation
One of the GU's main purposes is to ensure that graduates are properly represented on University Committees (of which there are many), and pursuing policy decided upon by the GU's democratic bodies.
The GU sabbatical officers, the President and the Welfare and Rights Officer, between them sit on the majority of University Committees that call for a graduate representative. The two highest decision-making bodies in the University – University Council and General Board – were until 2013 elected in separate elections. From 2013, the election of the GU President has been combined with these elections, so that the person elected as President will sit on these committees.
Representing graduates on committees makes up a significant proportion of the President's and the Welfare and Rights Officer's duties, and occasionally someone from the Executive Committee is delegated to represent graduates on more minor committees.
The GU officers take their representative duties very seriously. If you have anything to raise, please contact the officers directly through the form on the 'Contact Us' page, or speak to the GU Council representative in your MCR (likely to be the President or External Officer).
Joint College Representation
The Union represents Students' on committees run collectively by the Colleges, such as the Senior tutors committee and the Graduate Tutors committee.

The colourful life story of Beach Boys founder Brian Wilson is to be turned into a major Hollywood film.
The producers say the biopic will take an 'unconventional' look at Wilson's musical career and innovative creative processes, as well as his long struggle with mental health problems.
The script will be written by Oren Moverman, who created the screenplay for the unconventional Bob Dylan biopic I'm Not There.

Hey, thanks for that. The Bridgeport Post published it at least once. I haven't seen it in years. I don't know what's sadder: that the seasons seem to have gone all herky-jerky, or that no young sprat will any longer countenance an old man's bullshit from afternoon through evening.ReplyDelete
Oh yeah? Who do you think owns rock 1n roll? Young punks in a garage? Or grey haired producer's on the fortieth floor of the Capitol building in LA?ReplyDelete
But, of course, that ain't old man's bullshit, it's money.;-)

We know how to train teachers, pastors, and evangelists, but who knows how to prepare prophets for God's confrontation with the nations? When God decided to challenge Pharaoh, He sent His prophet to announce His judgments and when He decides to challenge all the Pharaoh's of the earth, He will again send His prophets to announce His coming and present His demands.
The Prophets Did Not Bring a New Message
When the prophets prophesied, they did not bring a new message. They spoke according to the covenants—the Scripture—that had already been given.

THE Supreme Court yesterday voted to uphold the constitutionality of Malacanang's Proclamation 216, extending martial law and suspending the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus in Mindanao.
In a briefing, SC Public Information Office (PIO) chief Brian Keith Hosaka announced the decision which was written by Associate Justice Rosmari Carandang after the high court's regular en banc session.
Nine magistrates voted to dismiss the four petitions questioning the proclamation while a minority of four justices voted against the suits.
"The Supreme Court ruled to uphold the constitutionality of the extension of the declaration of martial law and the suspension of the privilege of writ of habeas corpus in Mindanao until Dec. 31, 2019," Hosaka said.
Chief Justice Lucas Bersamin, Associate Justices Diosdado Peralta, Mariano del Castillo, Estela Perlas-Bernabe, Andres Reyes Jr., Alexander Gesmundo, Jose Reyes Jr., Ramon Paul Hernando and Carandang voted to dismiss the suits.
Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio and Associate Justices Marvic Leonen, Francis Jardeleza and Alfredo Benjamin Caguioa were in the minority.
The four petitions were filed by lawmakers led by Albay Rep. Edcel Lagman, militant party-list lawmakers led by Bayan Muna party-list Rep. Carlos Isagani Zarate, a group led by former Comelec chair Christian Monsod, and that of indigenes from Mindanao assisted by the Free Legal Assistance Group (Flag).
They argued that the extension of martial law is unconstitutional as it failed to satisfy public safety requirement under the 1987 Constitution.
Last Dec. 12, Congress voted to re-extend the martial law in the region up to the end of this year.
State lawyers cited data from the Armed Forces of the Philippines on active terrorist groups.
The military said Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) still has as a total of 424 members with 473 firearms who are scattered in 138 barangays in Basilan, Sulu, Tawi-Tawi and Zamboanga On the other hand, the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) has 264 members with 254 firearms and affecting 50 barangays.
The Daesh-affiliated Maute, Maguid and Turaifie groups have around150 members with various firearms.
The report said they are scatted in at least 204 barangays in Mindanao.
He also noted that the New People's Army continues to rise publicly and take up arms against the government. (PNA)

ORLANDO Bloom is reportedly dating Lord of the Rings costar Liv Tyler, a month after splitting from wife Miranda Kerr.
The pair have been friends for years, before sparking up a relationship, reports Star magazine.
Bloom and Tyler were spotted getting cosy after turning out to support Lord of the Rings costar Sir Ian McKellen in his New York production of Waiting for Godot.
"When they got behind closed doors, they were playfully tickling, gazing into each other's eyes and holding hands," a witness told Star, reports radaronline.
In September, Tyler was spotted supporting Bloom by catching his Broadway show Romeo and Juliet, heading backstage to catch up.
Bloom split from supermodel Kerr last month after six years together. The pair have a son, Flynn.
Tyler was previously married to Spacehog rocker Royston Langdon for five years before splitting in 2008. The pair have a son, Milo.

Coming Soon: MiPhone X with a Conscience Helps You T.H.I.N.K. Before You Post
We're fortunate in Minnetonka to have very talented and creative staff and students. One of these individuals, Andy Smith, is our A/V Production Specialist. Part of his job is to produce messages for the high school morning news show, including messages around Digital Citizenship. His most recent creation to get our students to T.H.I.N.K. Before They Post is about the MiPhone. The MiPhone is a futurist smartphone with a conscience that helps with posting appropriately and keeps its owner from getting into trouble or having digital regret. The video does a great job of getting students to reflect on what they digitize and communicate in a humorous way.
The video first appeared on the high school morning news show at the beginning of June 2015. The Beyond 140 series is a regular feature of the high school principal, Jeff Erickson, who with Andy's help, uses video to deliver messages to the 3,000 Minnetonka High School Students that go beyond the limitations of 140 characters of his Tweets. The student actor in the video is Eric V., a talented senior who just graduated.

Rä di Martino
Poor Poor Jerry
Copperfield Gallery
22 March – 6 May 2018
Rä di Martino's 'Poor Poor Jerry' at Copperfield in London, the artist's second solo exhibition with the gallery, draws on the language of animation and film to develop an emotive, absurd and chaotic narrative that cherry picks from cinematographies audio history.
"Over time, music, cinema and television has built a sharable and common imaginary, intertwining on many levels, and forming a free sentimental encyclopedia not based on an alphabetic or gender order. A set of signs apt to determine ages, places and experiences, both on a collective and personal level. Even if for many this experience becomes an instrument to better arrange emotions and build personal maps with which to move inside reality through the association of memories, for someone else it represents a burden from which it's impossible to get free, a dead weight hindering new thoughts and original visions.
Poor Poor Jerry investigates our collective awareness, overlapping the deeds of an icon of an American animated series and desert landscapes of Lanzarote with pop cinema soundtracks and dialogues." – Introduction by curator, Davide Giannella
Poor poor Jerry was produced with the support of Snaporazverein and Marsèlleria, Milano.
Rä di Martino (b.1975 Rome) deals principally with our perception of reality and fiction, drawing attention to the absurdity of representing either. The artist's background in theatre and her passion for film emerge not just in her videos, but in photographic and installation work. Sets, actors and props are used variously to pick apart subjects as diverse as human relationships, cinematographic traditions, the theatre of war, and the fabrication of history.
Di Martino is a graduate of Chelsea College of Art and holds an MA from the Slade School of Art. Her recent solo exhibitions include: The Day He Swims Thru Marrakech, Galleria Monica De Cardenas, Milan (2017); Rä di Martino, Monica de Cardenas Gallery, Milan (2017); Rä di Martino, Marselleria, Milan (2017); Certo e ch-io nacqui, Istituto Nazionale della Grafica, Rome (2015); On Making a Circle to Swim Under Water, Collicaligreggi Gallery, Catania (2015); Rä di Martino, Museion, Bolzano (2014); Rä di Martino, MAXX Project, Sierre (CH) (2014); Marilyn, Galleria Il Capricorno, Venice (2014); Rä di Martino – Greater Torino, Fondazione Sandretto, Turin (2012); La controfigura – The Stand-In, Monitor Gallery, Rome (2011); Rä di Martino (Artscape at) Vartaj Gallery (2010); Rä di Martino, Artissima, Turin (2010); The Night Walker and Other Works, CAV, Coimbra (2009); Rä di Martino, Espaces Doll – Les Urbaines Festival, Lausanne (2008).

non merci.
This is the first french phrase I learned when visiting Simone in Paris. It appears to be useful when warding off the creeps in the street that are trying to steal your bag or paint your picture or do something else in which you're not particularly interested in partaking.
Non merci. I would rather not have you tie my fingers together, but thank you for the offer, anyway.
Whatever. Paris was incredible. I was completely, 100%, in love with the city within the first three hours of arrival, which was totally unexpected. Honestly, I had formed my expectations of the city based on reports of dirty streets and unfriendly people (neither of which accusations I found in reality to be overwhelmingly accurate). So, I guess the question is, why would I waste my time going to Paris, when I expected the city to be completely miserable? ARE YOU INSANE? Helloooo, (1) it's cultural capital, and a must-see when you're only living a 3.5 hour train ride away, and (2), more importantly, one of my best friends in the world is Parisian (at least for the semester), and we desperately needed to spend some quality time together after 9 months apart. And don't let my tone fool you. This is way more dramatic than I can express.
I hastily booked my train ticket to Paris during exam period, when a special offer from TGV (the French railway) fell upon me from heaven (actually, Ute sent it to me, but same thing..). With my brain struggling to switch between remembering where the dashes and dots belonged on all of the Arabic names I had to memorize for my Middle East exam and the graphical and numerical explanation of the effect of Greece returning to the Drachma for my European Economic Integration exam, I was having a rough time trudging through the endless grey skies of Tübingen and desperately needed to take some time out on the bench with Simone. As fate would have it, we unknowingly planned for my visit to take place on Valentine's Day weekend. How romantic.
At approximately 16:35 on February 14, 2013, what the television and store fronts tell us is the most romantic day of the year, in Paris, the city that the travel books tell us is the most romantic on earth (I'm actually just making that up for dramatic effect. You might want to double-check me on that one.), I stumbled out of the TGV Express onto platform 9 of Paris Est, where Simone scooped me up in her arms and we shared a long, teary-eyed hug of reunification. Just like in the movies.
That night, we decided we had to do something special, so after a wee bit of sightseeing and a delightful little french dinner together, we did what any respectable pair of twenty-year-somethings would do on Valentine's Night in Paris, and shared a bottle of champagne on various benches around the city. A little known thing about Paris, my friends, is that it is a spectacular city for bench-sitting. I must recommend that if you do choose to visit the city, you park yourself on a bench, or you bench yourself in a park, and just sit and enjoy the beauty and the life around you. Make up stories about the world. Make up the world with your stories. Let yourself be there, see the perfection and the imperfection, feel the love and the hurt, and cherish the smallest details that you might have been the only one to have seen.
Note: while bench-sitting, you will also likely notice absurd fur coats, painful choices for walking shoes, and that every American that passes by seems to be the loudest and most obnoxious person in a one-kilometer radius. It is not an illusion. We, Americans, really are loud and obnoxious, at least relative to the subdued presence of Europeans. Yes, it's embarrassing, and yes, you might have the urge to speak in a British accent every time you're feeling the shame of being American, but the truth is we can't escape it. Whether we like it or not, we will, at some point, be the shame of a fellow American watching us from afar, and I think that's something we'll just have to learn to accept and embrace. So, we like to play. Is that so bad?
That night, presumably on the move from one bench to another, a french man with an armful of roses approached us, insistently shoving a small rose wrapped in plastic toward me. "Non merci, non merci," I repeated, happy to have another opportunity to practice my French. But the man insisted that it was a gift, so I eventually ceased practice on my catchphrase and accepted the dinky rose. Later, as I was waiting for Simone outside of the bathroom in a bar, a french woman approached me and said something which did not contain the words: non merci, s'il vous plaît, bonjour, or au revoir. I understood nothing. Feeling helpless and confused, my mind refused to tell her that I couldn't speak French...in English (see American Shame section above). "Ich spreche kein Französisch," I told the woman. I was relieved to find out that she also spoke a bit of German. She proceeded to tell me that my rose was ugly, to which I laughed and replied, "Yes, it really is, isn't it? But a rose is a rose." I gifted the rose to our kind and friendly bartender, Sebastian, shortly afterward, who, even in it's damaged and and hideous state, accepted it with love and gratitude.
The weather in Paris was spectacular that weekend. It was 10 degrees and sunny as can be. This sudden change in Europe's attitude actually had a dramatic influence on our activities. For example, instead of going inside the Louvre to see the Mona Lisa and all of the other art that isn't given nearly as much credit, we sunbathed out in the courtyard. We saw the touristy things like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame and all of the other things I can't remember the names of, but one of the things I found most striking and would like to share is La Defénse, or what Simone and I like to refer to as The City of the Future. Here, one can find the modern version of the Arc de Triomphe and many futuristic buildings. What I find particularly interesting about the City of the Future, is that it, in no way, looks like it belongs in Europe. The difference between Paris and La Defénse is so striking, that one's arrival in La Defénse can be sort of surreal. Apparently, this is where many of the people in Paris go to work. I think it's incredibly impressive how successfully they have been able to keep the cities separate and individual, preserving the history and beauty of Paris and cultivating the growth and modern development of La Defénse all at once. While they are two polar opposites, they are still one in the same. Definitely a must-see, if only for the shock factor.
As you can probably imagine, leaving Paris was definitely a bummer for both Simone and me. We both have bright months ahead of us, an endless path of discoveries and adventures to look forward to. I wasn't sad that I was coming back to Tübingen. And I really also wasn't sad that I was leaving Paris. So at first, I didn't understand why I was so bummed out, because honestly I'm quite accustomed to goodbyes and see-you-laters and au revoirs. It's usually no big deal for me. But it was the same feeling I had when I said goodbye to my friends at Tufts last May, and that's the feeling of vulnerability, of having your whiskers cut and walking around in circles, if you know what I mean. So, dear friends, I want you to know that I consider you the crème de la crème of whiskers. Thank you for always being there to lead me in the right direction. It was an incredible weekend, and I couldn't have been more happy to have experienced all of the delights of Paris with Simone.
Important lessons: (1) don't pass up a rose, even though it might turn out to be ugly or thorny, and (2) hold onto your whiskers.
