Parents who are thinking of enrolling their boy into the Entrance Examination for Year 7 (Senior School) or Year 3 (Junior School) entry to Bolton School (in September 2011), still have time to submit their application.
The Entrance Examination which will be held on:
Thursday 13 January 2011
In order to sit the exam, applicants must complete an application form. This can be obtained in one of three ways:
There are four components to the Year 7 Entrance Examination:
A set of three tests, newly set for us each year by GL Assessment, comprising:
Each of these three tests is designed to test a child's 'innate' ability. Practice papers are available from any good bookshop (look for GL Assessment 11+ practice papers) or via the GL Assessment website.
As a rough indication of the required standard, we would normally expect your son's primary school teacher to be predicting him to reach Level 5 in the Key Stage 2 SATs tests.
A reference will also be requested from the applicant's current school, as Headteachers' reports form an important element of our decision making process. For this reason, it is vital that parents who wish to make an application should first discuss this with their son's current Headteacher.
Between 140 and 150 places are available for Year 7 each year. All applicants are called for interview following the Entrance Examination, with these interviews taking place early in February. The interviews are used, along with the Headteachers' reports and the Entrance Examination performance, as a means of assessing the applicants. Subsequent to the interviews, and in agreement with the Manchester Consortium of Schools, offers of places are then posted at the beginning of March.
Approximately 50 places are available for Year 3 entry each year.

The Xcape discount travel card, which launched last week, entitles five to 20-year-olds up to half price off public transport in the county to encourage long-term use of the service.
Council comms manager for environment and transport Sandra Graffham said: 'Many youngsters want a car but we want them to continue using public transport when they're older and think this will encourage them to do so.'
The discount card also purports to help tackle social isolation by enabling young people to travel cheaply from rural areas to the main urban centres in the county.
The card offers additional discounts at a local cinema and shops with a view to encourage young people to support Suffolk traders.
Suffolk teamed up with the local radio station Vibe FM to launch the campaign, which kicked off with a series of roadshow events across the county last week.
The card is being promoted via media relations, a website and through schools and college newsletters.
Updates on discounts for cardholders will be sent out via text messages.
Councillor Kevan Lim is spearheading the campaign.

Menopause Home > Taking Prometrium for Hormone Replacement in Postmenopausal Women
Using Prometrium for Hormone Replacement in Postmenopausal WomenMenopause is a normal change in a woman's life when she stops having her period. That's why some people call menopause "the change of life." A woman has reached menopause when she has not had a period for an entire year and there are no other causes for this change. Menopause symptoms include:
- Vaginal changes, such as dryness or irritation
- Changes in your period, including abnormal bleeding or "spotting"
- Hot flashes (sometimes known as hot flushes)
- Night sweats and sleeping problems (including insomnia)
- Thinning and weakening of your bones
- Mood changes
- Urinary problems
- Problems with concentration or memory
- Less interest in sex and changes in sexual response
- Weight gain or increase in body fat around your waist
- Hair thinning or loss.
For some women, these symptoms are quite severe, and some form of menopause relief may be necessary. This may include medications, natural menopause relief remedies, or non-medical ways to deal with the symptoms.
Estrogen medications are quite effective for relieving the symptoms of menopause. However, for women with a uterus (those who have not had a hysterectomy), taking estrogen medications alone (without progesterone or a progesterone-like hormone) can cause the lining of the uterus to build up, which can lead to cancerous changes. Prometrium is approved for preventing this buildup (known as endometrial hyperplasia) in postmenopausal women taking conjugated estrogen medications (Cenestin®, Enjuvia™, or Premarin®). Although Prometrium is not approved for this use in women taking other types of estrogen, there is no reason to expect that it would not be effective for such use.

Ball Mill For Mineral Ore
Ball mill is the core equipment for further grinding the materials after crushing. It can be used to grind various kinds of materials, such as cement, the silicate product, new type building material, ceramics etc. especially suitable for mineral ore. The final products sizes can be adjusted between 0.074mm to 3.0mm by changing the diameter of the balls in the ball mill.
According to the grinding method, ball mill can be divided into wet ball mill and dry ball mill. According to the different ways of discharging the processed materials, ball mill can be divided into overflow ball mill and grate ball mill. Wet ball mill takes a very important position in the whole world's grinding equipment market because of its high fineness and efficiency.
Compared with traditional grinding mills, ball mill has many advantages, such as suitable for various materials, reliable performance, easy to operate and convenient to maintain and so on. But there are some shortcomings of old style ball mills, like the efficiency is not very high, the noise is a little loud etc. to solve these problems, our professional engineers developed and designed a new type ball mill, which is high efficient and with low energy consumption. The structure of this ball mill is simpler and compact, which makes it easy to maintain. Besides, in order to lower the noise, we equips noise collector in the machine. This efficient ball mill is very popular in mineral ore processing plant.
In a complete mineral ore processing plant, we need not only ball mill, but also crushing and beneficiation stage. We can provide various types and models of crushers and beneficiation equipment. If you are interested in mineral ore processing, please contact us. Our sales managers will do their best to help.

My youngest daughter excitedly checks the mail each day now waiting for her monthly THiNK OUTSiDE Box to arrive. She had so much fun with the first box. {You can read my review of our first box here.} But, I think she enjoyed the Wildlife box even more!! Honestly though, I can't blame her! The wildlife box from THiNK OUTSiDE Boxes was totally fun. We live in the city, so I believe the box would be even more fun for us to take on a hiking or camping trip.
As if the name of the box didn't give it away, this month's box was all about WILDLIFE! We learned all about:
- animal tracking
- animal waste
- animal homes
- how to measure stride
- using binoculars
- Bald Eagles & Brown Bears
- food chains
- animal cruelty
- Denali National Park
Here's what came in the wildlife THiNK OUTSiDE Box:
Our thoughts on the THiNK OUTSiDE Wildlife Box–
My thirteen year old daughter had a blast with this box. Hands down her favorite aspect was the binoculars!! Once she read through the lesson on how to use them, she was outside "spying" on the neighbors for well over an hour! Of course, I tried to persuade her to look at the birds in the trees…but alas, she thought the neighbors {who happen to be her great grandparents} were more interesting!
We live in the middle of the city in southeastern NC, so we run short in the wildlife department. We did have fun looking at the animal tracks that we could find in our yard though. We used the booklet and the animal tracking cards and found what we believe to be dog, cat, and squirrel tracks!
When I asked my daughter for her opinion of the wildlife box, she said "I liked it. I had fun with the binoculars. The waterproof notepad is awesome. It really is waterproof {yes, she really did hold it under the faucet to see if it lived up to it's name}, so that's cool. I liked looking at the animal tracks!"
And for mom's opinion….
It sent her outside and off her electronic devices for a solid 2.5 hours, so I'm a happy camper! She's exploring, learning, and having fun. The wildlife box from THiNK OUTSiDE Box is a winner! Are you ready give your children a THiNK OUTSiDE box? You can use promo code: LOAHM10 to take $10 off your first purchase! Shop here!

India, US seeking ground on civil nuclear issue
Sources pointed out that despite strong reservations on this issue, after the Indian Government issued the Gazette notification last month, the Obama Administration has decided to not to come out with its view. India and the US appear to have agreed to avoid finger-pointing in public on the contentious nuclear liability issue and are internally working to find out a common ground.
The consequence of the new approach is that the US government has officially held off any public comment on the Implementation Rules, preferring to work with India through quiet diplomacy. In fact, there is no consensus both inside the US Government and the American corporate sector on how to respond to this nuclear issue, said a nuclear expert who is intimately knowledgeable about the situation and regularly interacts with government officials in the US and India, involved in negotiating on this subject, as well as with US nuclear industry and legal community.
"The US and India are trying to find a common ground to keep the hopes of civil nuclear commerce between the two countries alive," said the expert who requested anonymity given the sensitive nature of the ongoing negotiations. It is learnt that the American corporate sector recently submitted to the State Department its viewpoint on India`s Gazette notification. India`s nuclear liability law did figure when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had met President Barack Obama on the sidelines of the ASEAN and East Asia Summits in Bali last month, where he "explained to him (Obama) that we have a law in place. Rules have been formulated…"
"Therefore, we have gone some way to respond to the concerns of American companies and within the four corners of the law of the land we are willing to address any specific grievances," Singh had said after meeting Obama. Officials of the Obama Administration and the industry representations have had several meetings in recent past on this issue, informed sources said.
"There are two schools of opinions which cut across government officials, lawyers, policy makers, etc. the purist and the pragmatist," the expert said, adding that the "purists" will accept nothing short of India changing the NLL and the Implementation Rules to be consistent with the five principles of the Compensation for Nuclear Damage (CSC).
These five principles are (1) channeling all legal liability for nuclear damage exclusively to the operator; (2) imposing liability on the operator without the need to demonstrate fault, negligence or intent; (3) granting exclusive jurisdiction to the courts of the country where a nuclear incident occurs; (4) permitting liability to be limited in amount and in time; and (5) compensating damage without any discrimination based upon nationality, domicile or residence.

I've created a cli module to deploy a postgresql driver to Wildfly.
The cli module is a zip file with name "install-postgres.cli" and with the following content:
- deploy.scr
- postgresql-9.3-1102-jdbc41.jar
- postgresql-module.xml
- undeploy.scr
I then run from the JBoss CLI the following commands:
deploy /folder/install-postgres.cli
And the module is successfully deployed.
However if I run afterwards the command:
undeploy /folder/install-postgres.cli
I get the following error:
Undeploy failed: {"JBAS014653: Composite operation failed and was rolled back. Steps that failed:" => {"Operation step-1" => "JBAS014807: Management resource '[(\"deployment\" => \"/folder/install-postgresql-driver.cli\")]' not found"}}
The contents of the undeploy.scr file is:
module remove --name=org.postgresql.jdbc --slot=main
If I run this command directly on the console the module is undeployed.
I'm doing something wrong or is this a bug?
PS: Using Wildfly 8.1 Final
Kind regards,
Pedro Saraiva
I had the same problem and finally found the answer: CLI deployment archive
When you do an undeploy you have to provide the --path parameter like:
undeploy --path=/folder/install-postgres.cli

Achieving process excellence is a strategic advantage in every industry. For strategies to work and people to perform at their best, processes must be efficient and effective.
Yet many organizations still think process improvement takes too much time, too many people, and creates a bureaucracy of 'quality' experts. Others appoint a single manager to oversee quality initiatives who may be perceived as the bottleneck when he/she is overwhelmed with projects on top of other responsibilities.
Processes Hold the Company Together
Every organization relies on operational, transactional, administrative, and support processes in functional areas such as sales, manufacturing, customer support, administration and delivery of products and services. Therefore, every businessfrom manufacturers to knowledge-based service companiescan apply proven methods of process improvement to reduce cycle time (speed) and eliminate errors (variation), also known as Lean Six Sigma.
- For most organizations, some processes are defined and documented, while others are not and often dependent on individuals' knowledge, skills and work habits.
- Over time, changes are made to these processes for a variety of reasons. Waste and inefficiency creep in, causing redundant, non-value work and costly errors.
- When organizations become dependent on "local knowledge" to keep processes working, and no one takes the time to review, document, update and improve key processes, it puts the business at risk.
- When people with the knowledge leave, performance can rapidly deteriorate.
Instead, contact Excellerated Performance for a complimentary initial consultation about creating a culture of continuous improvement and process excellence in your company.
Lean Six Sigma Project Management Services
- We work with clients to achieve process excellence by having certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belts identify and lead key projects to lean out waste and inefficiency, eliminate defects and streamline processes.
- We can also teach your people to apply these tools using a 5-step 'DMAIC' (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) project management model to lead their own projects.

Excellerated Sales Management Services
In today's economy, resources are more constrained than ever. This harsh reality may preclude hiring a full-time manager to lead the critically important sales function. For some companies, it means one person must manage the sales force while also overseeing other areas of the business. And many business owners find the demands of managing sales people a particularly challenging, emotional and time-consuming task.
Further, there is often a gap between business goals and the sales reps' ability to meet them. Reasons may include: ineffective oversight; inconsistent or no sales management process; varying skills, abilities and motivations; conflicting sales goals; a lack of training and professional development; ineffective time management.
Put an end to these problems with our Excellerated Sales Management Services.
- This innovative service enables any business to improve its sales productivity without investing in the total cost of a full-time sales manager.
- We combine sales leadership and management processes with real-world knowledge and expertise on a contract-for-services basis.
- It's turn-key sales management.

Zeppelin museum is only one of the city's attractions. Friedrichshafen has some more attractions to offer. Especially for aviation fans, the city is a great place. With the Dornier museum and the Zeppelin museum as well as a really great regional airport, there are some places to visit. Both museums offer insights into the beginnings of aviation, which you don't get so easily.
Zeppelin museum and dornier museum – a great place for aviation fans
The Dornier museum is located directly at Friedrichshafen Airport and takes you on a journey through 100 years of aerospace history! Huge flying boats, nostalgic passenger planes and exciting exhibits from space travel make a visit to the Dornier museum an experience for the whole family. The history of the aviation pioneer Dornier can be traced very well. With more than 400 exhibits, many aviation fans will get their money's worth in the museum.
A visit to the Zeppelin museum is also a must in Friedrichshafen. One of the largest and most important collections on the subject of zeppelins. Numerous original objects can be seen – uniforms, technical rarities, cutlery, furniture and much more. Video films about the Zeppelin can be viewed. Right down to details about the crash of the Hindenburg. The Zeppelin museum, located directly at the harbour, has become a magnet for the public. From the landing stage of the catamaran it is only a few steps on foot to stand in front of the building. Here you can learn everything about the beginning of airship and even look into the cabins of a zeppelin.
The regional airport makes the Zeppelin museum easily accessible
As a pilot, I am also a fan of the regional airport. There are only a few regional airports that offer such a high standard of safety on the one hand, but at the same time have remained easily accessible and kept the atmosphere of a regional airport.
Friedrichshafen is very easy to reach by car, bicycle, train or bus and even by plane.

Posted on 22 September 2009
The Mirror, Vol. 13, No. 630
Though the present national holidays extend only over the final period of the fifteen days of commemoration of the living for the dead, it is one of the major events of observing traditional religious observances in Cambodia. What is interesting, is that these holy days of the Cambodian Buddhist community are not observed similarly in other Buddhist countries like Laos, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, or Thailand. It is said that there are some pre-Angkorian and pre-Buddhist Cambodian origins of the Pchum Ben observances, which formed the basis for a later Buddhist interpretation. But it seems that not many people in Cambodia are aware that other predominantly Buddhist countries do not celebrate a similar cause.
Increasing international relations – not only relations for business and politics – lead, over the years , also to new ways of self-reflection, when some unquestioned assumptions about one's own traditions and beliefs are meeting with people in other countries oriented to the same roots – but with quite different results.
Since a number of persons who claim to be Muslim have committed acts of violence and killings in many countries, there is a trend in the public opinion in many countries that Islam is a violent religion – which is not true. In Iran, at present a famous singer of traditional meditative religious songs is giving inspiration to the opposition movement with his songs of peace and non-violence. There are many different form of Islam. And there are many different forms of Buddhism. And of Christianity.
There are Buddhist traditions pointing to the Buddha denying that there is something like a soul, something existing even beyond a human being's death, understanding our life as an unending processes of relations and changes, where there is no permanence. And there are other traditions also claiming to be Buddhist, like in the Cambodian Pchum Ben, concerned with the fate of those who died and whose souls may be trapped in a spiritual world if nobody in this world cares for them, to get them out from the misery of a bad spiritual world.
It is interesting to see how such belief is strong even in persons where one would not easily expect it.
When Vann Nath, the painter-survivor of the Tuol Sleng prison, said as a witness at the Khmer Rouge trial in June 2009 that life was "hell" in the prison, he is obviously using figurative language. But when the former Khmer Rouge leader Ieng Thirith, the Minister of Social Affairs and Education of the Khmer Rouge government – now in detention at the Khmer Rouge trial – "cursed those who accused her of killing people, to fall into the seventh level of hell" [in The Mirror, Vol. 13, No. 602, Deum Ampil, Vol.3, #128, 1-2.3.2009] one may ask whether this is still figurative speech only, or more.
Also the Prime Minister used, recently, similar words – whether used figuratively or beyond – which are strong because of the alliterations to their meaning in religious language, when he is quoted with the following statements:
- On 8 September 2009 he was quoted to have warned his critics that they would be struck by lightning, if they dared to suggest his leadership was plunging the country into poverty. – There have been already about 100 persons killed by lightning in Cambodia in 2009 so far, while there had been only 45 deaths reported in 2008.
- And on 15 September 2009 he was quoted – maybe in response to reports about the statement of the member of the National Assembly, Mu Sochua, and what she was reported to have said in the USA, that people who go overseas to tell "lies" about Cambodia could end up in the lowest level of hell, adding that people in foreign countries now have access to television about Cambodia and they would not be tricked by "liars" [though electronic media present a wide spectrum of the Cambodian realities].
The Pchum Ben traditions want to provide an end of suffering for those is hell, not only for those who have descendants and relatives praying for them and making offerings to the religious community of monks for their liberation from hell. There are even general – anonymous – donations for the forgotten trapped souls for whom nobody cares. Maybe this spirit of calling those who failed back, can also help to heal the many painful tensions among the living.
Discussing this with Cambodian friends, it was said that this is a Cambodian tradition – probably it relates only to Cambodians – not even to all Cambodian: probably not to Cham people, because they are not Khmer. There is a lot of quiet reflection and talking in mutual trust to happen, before we seriously can try to share our different understandings of the deeper meaning of life and death, including Khmers and Cham, and even foreigners from far away. Globalization includes more than the economy and the ecology.
Because of the Pchum Ben holidays in Cambodia, the next publication planned is the normal edition for Tuesday, 22.9.2009.

I'm so glad they don't judge me for this. LOL!
It has been, almost on the dot, a full year of being in the workforce. Yes...I cannot comprehend how time smacked my face so quickly I didn't feel a thing. Goodness gracious. Maybe it's the way I think - like, you are what you think.
My thoughts on being a member of the society as a working person for the past one year:
The good: I enjoy this different social setting. I enjoy making a living. I enjoy the company and the things I've learnt thus far, making me a too-good smarty pants.
The bad: I'm spending less time with family*. I've not developed any additional skill set beyond that which I've learnt at church. I'm afraid I'm not making a life.
Ugh girl. Why do you have to complain about everything? Just accept the fact that with everything, there is good and bad, and successful people know how to balance the two!
A crapload of news articles state that fresh graduates nowadays are less faithful to their employers and are willing to hop to another job at the drop of a hat if the prospects are better there. Loads of these Gen Ys are also giving the reason that they're fast learners who can do so much more than is expected of them, and thus want better opportunities and more recognition for what they do. I used to think this way too, until I read an article on Relevant (sorry can't find the link!) from a Gen X-er that really set me down for the hard facts: No. Privileged as we are, we still have to work for the experience. And sorry to say, experience isn't something our instant-grat culture can provide! "There's no app for that."
That's the truth, yo. No syllabus or textbook taught me that. College education, you disappoint. In all fairness, I think a leader did mention a crux of this issue at a meeting last month - "We need to teach the young ones to say NO. We have been obsessed with change and changing to keep up with them. It's time to tell them to stop changing so much, that it's time to develop whatever skills that they have in hand!"
*This may be a good thing, cos I appreciate any time I spend with them more, now!

When organizing events, decisive action and customer service provided by security staff can be matters of great importance to ensure customer satisfaction and safety. We continuously train our security staff to maintain a solid level of customer service and to react quickly when decisions are needed. Our staff aims to fulfill requests and wishes promptly, politely and efficiently.
Our security staff personnel are first and foremost safety and security professionals, but they are also well-versed when customer service really matters. The skills, attitude and actions directly reflect the integrity of the company which provides the service. The level of integrity Safetor has makes us confident and proud and it shows.

"Hey," I said when they answered, "I'm kind of lost. I can't find your building at all."
"May I have your card number and name, please?" came the voice at the other end.
"Really?" They needed a name just to give directions? I dug my wallet out and read my number aloud.
There was a pause, during which I assume my information was being written down. "Did you look it up on Google? The address is wrong on there. We're in [censored]. There's no sign. Make sure to fill out the new patient form when you come in." Silence as the line went dead.
I went inside an office building and found the door in a cubby after searching for a few solid minutes. I stepped into [description omitted due to the explicit request of Cannaceutics, Inc. to maintain confidentiality]. I let out an audible, "Oh, hell no," and bolted.
That was three months ago.
The rest was just as I had expected it to be: [description omitted]. But even knowing it was going to happen didn't help to ease the surreal feeling of the whole experience. I said thanks and bolted.
When I got home, it got weirder, though. My ass was just getting reacquainted with it's best friend the couch, and I was pulling out a gram of Super Orange Haze ([information unavailable] $12/gram) when I realized there was no THC/CBD info on the baggie. I searched through the copious paperwork they'd sent home with me, but it didn't list it anywhere. It had definitely been on the menu, though.
Oh well. As you might have guessed if you've been reading between the lines of any of my previous column entries, the THC and CBD count aren't exactly the most reliable way of knowing what a particular strain will do to you. To do that, dear reader, you have to smoke it.
So I shrugged my shoulders and lit up. Super Orange Haze is a sativa-dominant cross of Super Lemon Haze and Agent Orange, meaning it has a bright smell and citrusy taste. I've found the oranges tend to be great mood enhancers, and this one was especially well-equipped to turn my frown upside-down. It also immediately kicked my appetite into overdrive, and I found the one downside to this great flower: Practically zero short-term memory. I'd recommend having dinner already cooked and avoiding the urge to bake cookies. You'll burn them. Trust me.
Later in the evening, I sampled Catwoman ([information unavailable] $11/gram), an indica-dominant hybrid that comes from Girl Scout Cookies and Cataract Kush. By far the tastiest of the strains I bought, Catwoman (which I'll admit I picked because of the name) was sweet and smooth as silk. Though not too heady, my muscles immediately relaxed, all pain in my body ceased and I eased into sleep within a half hour of finishing the bowl—while still sitting up on the couch and holding my lighter like it was a life preserver.
The next morning I woke up, ate a bowl of Froot Loops and got to work on a joint of OG18 Sativa ([information unavailable] $8/gram of shake), a cross of Chemdawg and OG Chem. This potent sativa popped my eyes open and really got me ready to roll. It's amazing to me how certain strains seem to brush away the old cobwebs and leave me feeling fresh and invigorated, considering the old adage about "wake and bake." OG18 Sativa tasted fruity and woody, and went down easily enough. The only physical sensation I was aware of was a slight buzzing behind the eyes. The majority of the high was riding in my anxiety centers, calming down the voice back there that's constantly complaining. It would be great for anyone suffering from PTSD or social anxiety, as those tensions disappear quietly and without a fuss.
Overall, the quality of the flower was some of the best in the city. The buds were sticky and beautiful, and every one of them packed a real punch. Which means I have to weigh the benefits of amazing weed at low prices against the general weirdness of interacting with a place that oozes paranoia. I'll have to think about it.

About himself, Matt reports simply that he is twenty and the author of this work.
Silently I've slept
Blessed is the hero who collects no reward
Inside the spaces with a breathing grace
At times, thinking about my awakening, I have felt more confused than ever. I have had the notion that after experiencing such a grand appreciation, such a powerful revelation, that I should be bestowed with a message or knowledge. I have even feared that I have forgotten a message that was divinely granted to me. Now I remember, though, the world did not speak to me at that beautiful moment. What made the moment so beautiful, so deeply touching, is that I did not speak to it either, and we finally had a mutual understanding.

Bird Gard
We have installed a Bird Gard Plus in orchard #1 this year.
Last year we had a few Haskap berries on the very young plants, but the birds (prime suspects were the blue jays) took them as soon as they turned blue.
To combat the birds this year we added a Bird Gard Plus. During the installation there were a number of birds in the trees along both sides of the orchard. Once the Bird Gard Plus was turned on there was not a bird to be seen in the orchard within 10 minutes. When the Bird Gard Plus was first turned on it was set to randomly generate the various birds in distress, and birds of prey noises every couple of minutes. Once the birds left the area the interval for generating the bird noises was set to randomly play every 10 to 30 minutes. So far this has kept the orchard bird free, but this will be monitored closely and adjustments made for noise generation will be changed if required.
The Bird Gard Plus plays recorded bird noises that are very, very clear and if you didn't know that the system was in place you would actually think that there were real birds present.
The alternative that we have to using an acoustic deterrent is to use bird netting. However we wish to avoid the costs involved with netting and the amount of labor required to install it and remove it every year.
We are a dealer for Bird Gard products! Bird Gard makes various sizes of systems for bird control and more information can be found here.
2 Comments
I am very interested in Bird Gard for our haskaps also. However…we have lots of chickens. Do you know if the Bird Gard is compatible with chickens? (maybe birds that are likely to devour haskaps respond to different sounds than chickens?) I am very interested to hear how you make out with your system this year come harvest time.
According to the manufacturer chickens are not normally bothered by the Bird Gard, but because the Bird Gard uses real sounds of birds of prey and birds in distress this may actually attract real birds of prey. In which case the real birds of prey may go after the chickens.

The gay rights movement and parallel fight to end discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation has precipitated a number of policy debates in the past 40 years and various legislative responses across states. By 2010, a majority of states had adopted some form of legislation outlawing prejudice on the basis of sexual orientation in either private or public employment. A primary objective driving this movement is to reduce the negative effects caused by discrimination against this targeted minority of people by providing them with comprehensive legal protection and recourse. This paper uses data from the 2010 American Community Survey to estimate the consequences of adopting statewide employment nondiscrimination policies on wages for all people and specifically amongst the protected class. After controlling for individual characteristics that affect wages, the results show no indication that employment nondiscrimination policies convey a unique benefit for gays and lesbians. The important symbolic meaning of legitimizing the identities of gays and lesbians as fully contributing members of society by adopting these antidiscrimination protections might serve as a more compelling equality measure than evaluating the isolated income effects alone.

Would they buy this item again? Yes
I deliberated on purchasing this for quite a while - $34 for a brush is pretty steep, but in this case it was definitely worth it. I've used it on multiple wheel types, and it works well at all. It's particularly effective with larger spoke designs, as it has a bit of a harder time getting into vertical edges. I make sure to rinse it thoroughly after use and hang up to dry - not sure why the reviewer that said it "fell apart after a couple days in my bucket" figured it was a good idea to leave an expensive brush just setting in a bucket.
Pros: Gentle yet effective on a variety of wheel types
Cons: Doesn't work well on narrow spokes

Definitely took a minute for me to talk myself into buying this brush when you have other wheel brushes for 1/5 the price. I actually bought the DI All purpose exterior brush to compare this too for cleaning the face of wheels. I'll be saving that for wheel wells because the Boars hair one is night and day better on the wheels. I don't regret this purchase at all.

Quality brush. Soft, Dense boar's hair bristles don't marr the surface. This brush will make you question all wheel brushes you have used previously. Has held up well with little initial shedding. You get what you pay for, and it's worth it's price, would buy again.

Wielechowski pre-files bill to repay reduced PFDs
An Anchorage state senator wants to repay Alaskans for Permanent Fund dividends that were reduced for three years under the state's formula.
Bill Wielechowski's proposal to pay an estimated $3,740 to eligible Alaskans is among 43 bills and resolutions filed Monday, in advance of the upcoming legislature, slated to start Jan. 15.
"Whether it's done in a stand-alone bill or done through the budget — and ideally this would be done in the budget," Wielechowski said of SB13. "This is to make sure we keep it moving along."
The Anchorage Democrat also wants to enshrine the statutory formula in the constitution to avoid the recently spawned annual debate over how much dividends should be.
Dividends were one of the most politically charged campaign issues last year along with public safety and a balanced budget.
Republican Gov. Mike Dunleavy advocated for a full dividend and restoration as well. He has a full dividend in his budget proposal for the upcoming fiscal year.
Three years ago, former Gov. Bill Walker ignored the statutory formula for determining a dividend and reduced the sum by almost half through a line-item budget veto to $1,022.
The Legislature followed suit the next two years approving a payout of $1,100 in 2017 and $1,600 last year, amounts that survived Walker's vetoes.
After Walker's 2016 veto, Wielechowski sued the governor, challenging the governor's veto power. The Alaska Supreme Court sided with Walker.
"They disagreed the legislature had to follow the statute, but the fact you still have the statute on the books that says these need to be paid," Wielechowski said. "It's just like you have a statute on the books that says the oil tax credits have to be paid and the state followed that."
Wielechowski attempted a similar constitutional enshrinement last year, but it failed to get past the Senate Finance Committee.
"Enshrining the PFD removes the decision-making from politicians and places it in the hands of Alaskans," he said. "I know the governor likes the idea. I don't care if it's my name or this has a Republicans name on these bills. Let's just get it done."
If SJR1 passes by two-thirds of each legislative chamber, it will go on the ballot for the 2020 election and voters get to decide whether dividend payouts should follow the statutory formula.

Psychological and Emotional Impact of a Burn Injury
By Megan Bronson PMHCNS, BC
Differentiating Grief From A Trauma Response:
Physical traumas such as burn injury and the painful and intrusive medical procedures required to treat them can be profoundly traumatizing. The emotional response to any trauma is intense fear, horror, and helplessness to affect the outcome. There is, inherent in a traumatic incident, a threat to basic security and safety. The effects of burn trauma can profoundly affect an individual's ability to cope with life stresses, as well as constrict one's ability to relate to others for months, years, or a lifetime. Traumatic events trigger the fight or flight survival response and it can be helpful to view symptoms of trauma from this perspective. Victims of trauma often avoid or resist talking about the traumatic event. Symptoms of trauma may not emerge and become evident for weeks, months, or even years after the traumatic event occurs.
Burn injury is often, if not always accompanied by losses. Losses vary depending on the individual situation and extent of the burn injury. Grief is a natural, innate, healing process which occurs in response to loss. This process is time limited and has as its function emotional healing and a return to life activities. Grief does not damage self worth, self esteem, or self image. The predominant feelings of grief are sadness, anxiety, longing for that which has been lost, and oftentimes anger about the loss. Anger tends to be unfocused. Most find it helpful to talk about their loss.
Burn trauma profoundly affects all parts of the burn injured individual's and family's life. The losses and trauma inherent in a burn injury require ongoing assessment, attention and intervention as needed. Psychological healing and recovery need to be supported throughout all phases of recovery including reintegration.
Emotional, Social, And Spiritual Recovery:
The most fundamental psychological insult of trauma is helplessness in the face of an event which is psychologically and physically overwhelming. In burn trauma this is complicated by the repetitive nature of procedural trauma and the reactivation of the trauma response. Psychological recovery from burn trauma requires that a sense of safety and power in one's life be restored. The following phases outline a path to psychological recovery and the reclaiming of personal power after burn trauma. This model is further elaborated upon in Trauma and Recovery by Judith Herman M.D.
Phase I:` Recovery of a sense of safety in the world
Phase II:`Remembering, Telling one's story, and Mourning
Phase III: `Reconnecting with life
Recognizing trauma symptoms throughout the acute, rehabilitative and reintegration phases of burn treatment is imperative in order to facilitate early and ongoing intervention. Below is a list of common trauma symptoms.
Post-Traumatic Stress Symptoms in Adults
A traumatic event is defined by the DSMIV, (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Psychiatry 4th Edition), as an event in which the person witnessed or was confronted with an event that involved actual or threatened death or serious injury to self or others, and that the event was responded to with intense fear, helplessness, or horror.
Symptoms often seen in adults post trauma:
• easily startled
• difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep
• irritable, short tempered, restless
• loss of interest in what one previously enjoyed
• social withdrawal and isolation
• avoidance of friends and interaction with others
• intrusive recall of the traumatic event, (can't stop thinking about what happened)
• or avoidance of thinking about or feeling about the trauma
• avoidance of the place or circumstances where the trauma occurred
• avoidance of people who might be associated with the trauma
• avoidance of the place where painful treatment of the traumatic injuries occurred, such as a burn center or clinic, (this may lead to non-compliance with treatment)
• flashbacks of the traumatic event, (seeing, hearing, smelling or tactile sensations)
• abuse of alcohol or drugs
• thinking about death, sense of pessimism about the future
• mistrustful, fearful, anxious, hypervigilance
• difficulty concentrating and problem solving
• feeling detached and distant from others
• nightmares, (may or may not be directly related to traumatic event in content)
• numbing of feelings
• feeling dazed or not real
• unable to recall important aspects of the trauma
Some of these symptoms may be present following a traumatic event and will usually diminish over time. It is important to seek help from a professional counselor who has advanced training and expertise in treating trauma if symptoms persist beyond the early days or weeks after the occurrence of the trauma.
Recognizing the Impact of Childhood Trauma in Children and Adolescents
Consider the developmental stage of the individual when traumatized:
Inadequate or incomplete achievement of developmental tasks often occurs in the wake of trauma. This is true for the burn injured child as well as siblings of the child who suffered the burn. It is therefore essential to consider the developmental stage the person was in when the burn injury occurred as the developmental task of that stage may have been partially or inadequately mastered (refer to accompanying handout). The development of the human personality and psychology is similar to the building of a house. In the building of a house the care with which the foundation is laid will determine the solidness and the structural strength of the completed house. All parts of the house rest on the foundation, just as all parts of the personality are built on the sequential developmental stages of childhood and adolescents.
Unresolved trauma and traumatic loss often present as:
• Depression
• Anxiety disorders
• Obsessional thinking and compulsive behaviors, perfectionism
• Alcohol and Substance abuse and inappropriate dependence
• Problems with intimacy such as social isolation, abusive relationships, inappropriate control in relationships, problem with boundaries
• Sleep disturbance—difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, early awakening
• Eating disorders—anorexia, binging, bulimia, overeating
• Psychosomatic illness—such as headaches, peptic ulcers, etc
• Aggression, hostility, irritability, difficulty managing anger, controlling behaviors
• Risk taking behaviors
• Failure to emancipate, failure to take responsibility, running away, Etc.
Recognizing fear and its roots in trauma:
It is the trapped fear that is at the root of posttraumatic stress symptoms (see accompanying handouts). Common fears of children after trauma are described by Lenore Terr, MD in Too Scared to Cry: How Trauma Effects Children and Ultimately Us All. These common post trauma fears are:
• Fear of another more frightening event
• Fear of separation
• Fear of death
• Fear of helplessness
• The mirror image of extreme rage is extreme passivity—both are fear based
It is oftentimes unresolved fear that unconsciously drives a trauma survivor's life and the resolution of fear is therefore essential to recovery and healing.
Trauma Responses in Children and Adolescents
Traumatic experiences have a profound effect on the developing child. These effects impact the child cognitively, emotionally, psychologically, and socially. Traumatic experiences include abuse, rape, witnessing or being the target of violence, suicide, homicide, natural disasters, house fires, accidents, critical injuries such as severe burns and their treatment, etc. Any event, which the child experiences as life threatening to the child or others, can be defined as traumatic.
Common manifestations of trauma in young children: (approximately 2-6 yr.)
• generalized fear and anxiety
• nightmares, night terrors, fear of going to sleep or sleeping alone
• regressive behaviors,(bed-wetting, talking baby talk, thumb sucking, whining)
• repetitive trauma play, may have difficulty verbalizing about the trauma
• confusion and difficulty understanding that the trauma is over
• attachment anxiety, (clinging, excessive concern about parent leaving)
• physical symptoms, (stomachaches, headaches, other physical symptoms)
• personality changes, may be withdrawn and passive, or aggressive and reckless
• school difficulty, such as difficulty concentrating may not want to go to school
• arguing, fighting, agitated, restless, quick to anger and become defensive
Manifestations in older children: (approximately 6-12 yr.)
• fears are more specific and related to the trauma
• sleep disturbance, (nightmares, fear of sleeping alone)
• obsessing about and talking about the trauma repeatedly, compulsive behaviors
• guilt related to not being able to control the trauma
• impaired ability to concentrate and learn
• changes in behavior, (such as withdrawn and isolating, or aggressive and reckless)
• feeling overwhelmed by and afraid of losing control of feelings
• concern for the safety of family members
• fear of death and sometimes a fear of spirits or ghosts
Manifestations in adolescents: (approximately 12-18 yr.)
• may include symptoms of older children, as well as adult symptoms
• may be self conscious about feelings, fears, and being different
• aggressive, destructive, self destructive, risk taking, acting out behaviors, (substance abuse, sexual acting out, delinquent behavior, truancy, etc.)
• avoidance of interpersonal relationships, withdrawal, social isolation
• personality changes, depression, apathy, moodiness
• leaving school or leaving home, or fear of separating from family/parents
• pessimism, cynicism, plans of revenge
• failing grades, disinterest in school, friends, and previously enjoyed activities
[Modified from the DSMIV, {Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Psychiatry 4th Edition)]
Seek input and guidance from family physician, teachers, nurses, school counselor, family members, as well as evaluation by a professional counselor who has advanced training and expertise in treating trauma.
Identifying children at risk after significant loss:
When the following behaviors persist months after the loss they are considered red flags and indicate the need for professional assessment and intervention.
• Anxiety which limits the child's ability to function, such as school phobia, fear of further loss, fear that he or she will also die
• Persistent difficulty talking about the person who has died
• Hyperactivity, aggression, destructive outbursts
• Marked social and/or emotional withdrawal
• School difficulties, (this could present as failing grades, difficulty concentrating and following directions, or over-achievement and perfectionism)
• Persistent self blame and guilt
• Compulsive care giving or compulsive self reliance
• Somatic complaints such as headaches or stomachaches
• Identification symptoms, (accidents, developing symptoms of the deceased person's illness)
• Substance abuse or other self destructive behaviors; expressing a desire to die, (this is often related to an unconscious hope of reunion)
• Prolonged inability to cry or to express or experience longing for the person who died
• Sleep and eating disturbance
Finding a Therapist
Due to the unique nature of burn injuries, it is especially important to refer patients and their families to mental health resources such as psychotherapists, social workers, counselors or psychologists who have received advanced training in treating trauma and loss issues. Some of the common modalities used to help these populations include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). The following article from the NYU Child Study Center offers some helpful guidelines for choosing a mental health professional for children and adolescents.

When is the Right Time?
Many children have to deal with life stresses in the course of growing up. For most children challenges are temporary, and they learn to adjust and move on. However, some children and their families need outside help in coping with their difficulties. Parents and other adults should be alert to physical and emotional signs that suggest that a child or teen may be not be adjusting well and may need help. Some problems can be of serious concern, for example, when a child or adolescent has lost touch with reality or is in danger of harming her/himself. Other problems may be of less concern, for example, when a child experiences difficulties in peer relationships or is particularly fearful of something or has suddenly become aggressive.
Further investigation may also be warranted when a child seems out of step with peers or shows changes or problems in any of the following areas:
• eating
• sleeping (persistent nightmares)
• excessive fears
• worrying or crying
• decline in school work
• mood
• constant disobedience
• poor relationship with family or friends
• aggressive behavior
• marked opposition to authority
• returning to behavior typical of a younger child
Other important questions to keep in mind in making the decision about requesting professional help are:
How intense is the problem?
How long has it lasted?
Is it inappropriate at the child's age?
Does it interfere with the life of the child and family?
Just like physical problems, the outlook for emotional problems is better when the problem is treated early and children can resume healthy development. Talk directly and honestly with the child, using age-appropriate language, to allay his/her concerns and answer questions about seeking professional help. It may be useful to point out how the problem interferes with the child's enjoyment of life. If the parents' attitudes are positive, it will affect the child's responses and make participation in therapy more likely.
Getting Started with the Right Treatment
Once the decision is made that help is needed, parents should begin to gather pertinent information. Here are some helpful sources:
• Talk things over with the child's pediatrician, teacher or guidance counselor.
• Get a recommendation from a trusted friend or family member.
• Check with a clinic associated with a local hospital or medical school.
• Contact national or local professional organizations. Mental health professionals include psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, or marriage-and-family therapists.
It is important for the child or teen and parents to feel comfortable and to trust the therapist selected. Parents often benefit from having an initial consultation and one or two sessions before making a definite commitment.
Some questions to ask when first meeting with a mental health professional include:
• The credentials of the therapist.
• Training and particular experience/expertise in dealing with the problem.
• If the clinician works with other professionals in the child's life.
• Type and format of treatment, such as frequency of sessions and cost arrangements.
• Extent of parents' involvement with treatment.
Common Treatment Strategies
Medication is one option among many for certain disorders. Whether medication is part of the treatment plan depends on the nature of the problem and discussion with the professional, the parent, and in some cases, the adolescent. Some treatments are carried out alone, some in combination with medication. Many therapists draw from various schools of therapy and modify their approach according to each child's needs and capacities.
Some common treatment strategies include:
• Cognitive behavioral therapy: focuses on symptoms and current goals. Helps the child identify faulty beliefs and learn new ways of thinking and behaving.
• Verbal psychotherapy: current problems are discussed in light of past difficulties and options for coping with feelings and behavior in more effective ways are developed.
• Group therapy: issues are explored within a group setting with individuals who share similar problems.
• Interpersonal psychotherapy: feelings and responses are explored within the context of different interpersonal or social relationships and situations.
• Family therapy: members of the family are helped to understand how their behaviors affect one another and instructions and strategies for making changes are provided.
To be helpful, therapy usually requires an investment of time and hard work on the part of both the professional and the child or teen and family. The therapist's job is to act as a guide, instructor, mentor and confidante. The job of the child or teen and parents is to work and to try and put what they learn into practice. Successful collaboration results in better functioning and life satisfaction for both the child and family

Humankind is capable of great accomplishments, such as sending probes into space and eradicating diseases; these achievements have been made possible because humans learn from their elders and enrich this knowledge over generations.
Thanks to this cumulative aspect of culture – whereby small changes build up, are transmitted, used and enriched by others –, humans use techniques that evolve and improve from one generation to the next, and also differ from one population to another.
It was already know that chimpanzees learn many things from their peers, but each individual seems to start learning from scratch. Thus cumulative culture was previously thought that be unique to humans.
But, for the first time, a type of cumulative cultural evolution has now been observed in another primate, the baboon. This discovery show that specifically human capacities, such as language, are not necessarily required for the emergence of cumulative cultures.
Update: Cultures are no longer unique to humans. In November 2014, at the 11th Conference on the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (an international environmental treaty under the aegis of the United Nations), the existence of a non-human culture was officially recognized.

'Clash of Civilizations', Crusades, Knights and Ottomans: an Analysis of Christian-Muslim Interaction in the Mediterranean
Buttigieg,Emanuel (University of Malta)
Religion and power in Europe : Conflict and Convergence, Pisa University Press, (2007)
In a world that has become so powerfully gripped by a possible escalation of a 'clash of civilizations' that could spiral out of control, interest in the history of Christian-Muslim encounters and violence is on the rise. The aim of this chapter is to provide some historical depth to a debate that often tends to be shallow in its appreciation of a complex legacy of interaction between different people. It will commence with an overview of the recent debate that emerged in response to the ideas of Samuel P. Huntington. It will then consider the historical implications of the crusades in the way they have come to colour contemporary West-Muslim relations. Finally, the chapter will consider a number of naval battles between the Knights Hospitallers of St. John the Baptist and the Ottoman Empire as a case study in early modern Christian-Muslim interaction. This relationship will be looked at from the religious angle, but other factors that informed this conflict, such as status and masculinity, will also be considered.

Our guide to dance performances happening this weekend and in the week ahead.
AMERICAN BALLET THEATER at the Metropolitan Opera (through July 7). The company wraps up the weekend with Kenneth MacMillan's sumptuous production of "Romeo and Juliet" before moving on to "Swan Lake" starting on Monday. Yes, it's true that this "Swan Lake" is in need of an overhaul, but there are some mighty dancers cast as Odette/Odile, among them Isabella Boylston, Devon Teuscher and Misty Copeland. And for the matinee on June 20, the powerful, statuesque Christine Shevchenko makes her New York debut as Odette/Odile opposite the charismatic James Whiteside.

MOLISSA FENLEY AND COMPANY at Danspace Project (June 21-23, 8 p.m.). In "Their Mark, an evening of new dance and new music," Ms. Fenley collaborates with the percussionist Frank Cassara and the violist Ralph Farris on the piece "Water Table." It includes four dances (three of which are new) that investigate qualities of water. Each one is set to music by a different composer: Linda Bouchard, Andrew Toovey, Tigran Mansurian or Mr. Cassara. The program also features a shortened version of "Mix," a work from 1979 in which Ms. Fenley explores a series of rhythmic phrases and changing spatial patterns to the accompaniment of her dancers' footsteps and claps.

The company's leading principals and soloists will perform repertory by August Bournonville, Marius Petipa and Jules Perrot. Ragamala Dance Company, a Minneapolis group specializing in contemporary dance and the South Indian classical form of Bharatanatyam, will also make an appearance (June 20-24, at Doris Duke Theater). And on June 17, just before the festival officially opens, the Scottish company Janis Claxton Dance will make its United States debut with "Pop-Up Duets (Fragments of Love)" at the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Mass.

The Joyce presents two queer contemporary dance companies as part of the L.G.B.T.Q. Pride festivities. Madboots, an all-male company led by Jonathan Campbell and Austin Diaz, unveils a mixed program including the premiere of "Gay Guerrilla," a work for nine set to music by Julius Eastman, and "MASC," which looks at the notion of American manhood. The Joyce debut of Sean Dorsey Dance features the New York premiere of "The Missing Generation," an evening-length work born from interviews with L.G.B.T.Q. survivors from the early days of the AIDS epidemic. Madboots performs on June 19, 21 and 23 (evening); Sean Dorsey Dance, on June 20, 22 and 23 (matinee).

The former New York City Ballet principal Jacques d'Amboise — irrepressible at 83 — formed this arts education organization in 1976. For its "2018 Event of the Year: At the River's Edge," directed by Kelly Buwalda, more than 200 dancers from New York City public schools will perform a work inspired, aptly, by the power of rivers, including the cultures, creatures and cities that exist along a river's edge, from the Amazon to the Hudson.

THIERRY THIEÛ NIANG at the Invisible Dog Art Center (June 16, 7:30 p.m.; June 17, 5 p.m.). The French choreographer has long been inspired by the notion of childhood in his work. He was deeply affected by photographs from 2016 of refugee children who had washed ashore; for his latest work, "To the Heart," he explores ideas and images rooted in childhood: the joy of playing together or alone, running, falling, playing dead or pretending to be reborn. In it, the musician Sean Harold accompanies 15 young performers.
RIVER TO RIVER FESTIVAL at various locations (June 15-24). The Lower Manhattan Cultural Council presents this festival, now in its 17th year, with free dance, music, theater and visual art shows at downtown sites. Of the dance highlights, the most dramatic is likely to be an appearance by It's Showtime NYC!, a company of street dancers, performing on the steps of Federal Hall (June 18-22). Other notable events include Catherine Galasso's "Of Granite and Glass," a site-specific dance inspired by Giovanni Boccaccio's "The Decameron" at the Winter Garden (June 15-17); Enrico D. Wey's "silent :: partner," an exploration of memory and memorialization held inside Federal Hall (June 15-17); and Cori Olinghouse's "Grandma," a look at aging and the ghosts of the American South. The setting? A Lower Manhattan office building (June 16-17).
'THEM' at Performance Space New York (June 21, 7:30 p.m.; through June 28). In 1986, during the AIDS crisis, the choreographer Ishmael Houston-Jones, the composer and guitarist Chris Cochrane and the writer Dennis Cooper collaborated on the premiere of "Them," a searing exploration of gay male sexuality. The AIDS epidemic, while not taken on directly, is part of this haunting work, which is being revived as part of Performance Space's East Village Series. This time around, the dancers are Alvaro Gonzalez Dupuy, Johnnie Cruise Mercer, Michael Parmelee, Jeremy Pheiffer, Kensaku Shinohara, Michael Watkiss and Hentyle Yapp.

The Naira on Wednesday gained 70 kobo to exchange at N364.15 to the dollar at the investor's window, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.
It traded at N364.22 to the dollar on Tuesday.
Investors transacted 134.90 million dollars to close trading, and closed at N306.80 to the dollar at the official CBN window.
At the parallel market in Lagos, the Naira was sold at N364 to the dollar, while the Pound Sterling and the Euro closed at N480 and N415.
Trading at the Bureau De Change segment saw the Naira closing at N360 to the dollar, while the Pound Sterling and the Euro closed at N480 and N415.
NAN reports that Naira has been in the eye of the storm lately as efforts at defending it against the dollar appeared unsustainable.
Available data showed that the CBN had since April 2017, injected 26.77 billion dollars to the foreign exchange market to shore up the value of the Naira.
Though there was relative stability in the prices of goods and services, experts argued that throwing dollars in the defence of the Naira was unsustainable.

Falcons to fight cancer on Feb. 6
The Fitchburg State Falcons ice hockey team will turn pink into green on Saturday, Feb. 6, when all proceeds from its showdown with the Westfield State Owls goes to fund breast cancer research.
The ice, and the players' uniforms, will be dyed for the Pink on the Rink event, which starts at 6 p.m. at the Wallace Civic Center, 1000 John Fitch Highway. The event is being run by the Cup Crusaders, which raises funds for the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure.
Cup Crusaders Captain Kathy DiRusso said the previous "Pink on the Rink" events—held in Worcester—each raised more than $10,000 for the cause, with at least as much hoped to be raised at this year's function. Tickets for the Pink on the Rink game are $10 and can be ordered through DiRusso at email@example.com or (978) 537-4720. Tickets will also be available at the door the night of the event.
"We are honored to partner with the Cup Crusaders for this occasion, which will raise awareness and funds for a most worthy cause," Fitchburg State President Richard S. Lapidus said.
"It will be a great night in the fight against breast cancer," added hockey coach Dean Fuller.
The Falcons versus Owls game will be bookended by the Fitchburg State alumni hockey game at 4 p.m. and, at 8 p.m., a showdown between Fitchburg High School and Leominster High. Tickets are $10 for the public and $4 for students; the $10 ticket will offer admission to both the Fitchburg State and high school games.
The pink uniforms from the Fitchburg State game will be auctioned off to raise additional funds after the conclusion of the game.

Hi I'm Kam and welcome to my blog.
The truth is I'm mad about fashion, both current and preloved. Before my life as a freelance Personal Stylist, I worked within the media and then as a corporate Project Manager. I found it increasingly difficult to juggle stressful work life, with having a young family and rising childcare costs. So when I fell pregnant for the third time, I decided to call it quits. My time at home gave me the opportunity to work out what it was that I wanted to do, where my passions lie, and how best to utilise the skills and experience I'd built up along the way. Eventually, I realised that by becoming a Personal Stylist, I could not only combine my passion for fashion with helping others, but also gain the flexibility that I needed to fit a career in around raising my kids.
After becoming a mummy I struggled with body confidence and my own self esteem, especially after having an emergency C-Section with my first-born. I genuinely thought that the birth would be a bed of roses, and by no means was I prepared for what my body would go through. Even down to wearing 'Big knickers' afterwards to hold the pad on the wound where I'd been cut open……I just hadn't a clue!!! Fashion, and how I looked were the last things on my mind!!! But 3 C-Sections and 1 natural birth later, I slowly came to realise that I could use my clothes as a tool to regain my confidence, and feel empowered again. So I now have 4 kids, and I'm very familiar with the struggles that a woman can face as a mum, and being uncomfortable in her own skin.
So many mum's ask me for my help with their outfits, and also where I buy my clothes from. I've never been into high-end fashion, and especially having a young family, I've had to learn to budget well, to accommodate my love of fashion. I love nothing better than finding high street bargains, and having a good rummage around in a charity shop or local car boot sale for pre-loved items. I've never been a catwalk dress size either, but I am a firm believer that no matter what your size and shape, you can always look and feel great in what you wear, if you have the knowledge of what suits you and the confidence to wear it!
This blog is my outlet for Fashion, Mumlife and everything in between. Being a Mum was never going to be easy….but with some support and encouragement along the way…..Together, I'm sure we've got a good shot at getting it right!!!
Thanks for stopping by! 💋
