The little guy was three months old when we met him. He lived in a box at a farm, inside of a barn, with other puppies. I think he saw the outdoors and sun the day we brought him home. Which was the day before I took this picture. It was hidden in an old file. The camera was a primitive digital with maybe three magapixels. And there wasn't much light in the bedroom. But somehow all of that works to create a storm of grit and wonder. Notice the only color is in the lens glare there on the lower left. I like that. Rocco's become a good friend. And he's adjusted pretty well to city living outside of his barn cardboard box.

Ok, off to a cliché: "He's soo cute!" ;-)
Really, I like the pose and the look in his eyes. Postprocessing is as usual great and unique. However, the bright lower left corner is distracting, isn't it?

Hmmm... it is a taste thing, Thomas. I like the burst of light and the way the spherical aberations actually twirl right up to Rocco's face. It seems so authentic to me.. Gritty. I see your point as well. In a perfect world, I'd have taken two. But given the light slashing across my lens... I was gifted with this, noire sort of thing. Thanks for the comments though. I like direction.

burnt baked goods & other burnt stuff
Japan was prepared - are we?
The one thing that really struck us on the day of the earthquake in the the days after until we went home was how calm the people seemed. Especially on the day of the earthquake when we were riding in the taxi through the streets of Tokyo. The buildings had been evacuated and the streets were filled with people, but there seemed to be no panic. Many people were wearing helmets and masks.
I've copied a simple list that was made for international visitors living in Japan. It was interesting for me to scroll through it and check off my levels of preparedness. Even though preparedness is emphasized in church and in our community, there were several areas that I have neglected lately. For example, right now, our family water supply is pathetic. And old. I doubt we'd even be able to drink it. That's where I'm going to start. Here goes:
Japan is an earthquake-prone country. Be prepared and don't panic
when it happens!
Check your emergency survival kit regularly to see if the food is
outdated or any items are missing so that the kit is usable when it's needed.
Getting ready for an earthquake
Prepare your emergency survival kit.
Pack the following emergency items in a backpack or a bag and keep it in a
place where all family members can easily locate it:
You also need to keep drinking water, approximately
2 to 3 liters per person per day.
Pay attention to safety measures for your home.
Do not leave objects near doors, hallways, and/or staircases.
Do not put anything heavy or breakable on the top of furniture.
Secure furniture to prevent it from falling. It is also recommended
to secure TVs, personal computers and stereo units.
If you put something on the top of furniture, make sure it stands
securely. In addition, place some non-slip material under it to
prevent it from falling off the furniture.
Take steps to prevent fires.
Unplug electrical appliances after use.
Check the safety of your house. Check the roof of your
house to see if any tiles are loose or if antennas etc, are unstable.
Be informed about local evacuation area / center.
Do you know where yours is?
Each community has designated evacuation area to be established
in case of major earthquakes. Identify and remember where your
evacuation area is located.
If the earthquake happens while you are at work, you may have to
walk all the way home. It is therefore important to plan in advance
walking route to your home, otherwise you may find it very difficult
to return home in such emergency situations. Make sure to keep in
mind several locations of designated "return-home aid stations,"
which will be established along major roads in case of a major
earthquake to help people return home by providing water,
restrooms, and necessary information.
What to do in case of earthquake
If you are at home:
Protect yourself by sheltering under a table. If there is no
place to hide, protect your head with a pillow or a cushion.
After the main shock calms down, immediately turn off the
gas appliances as well as heating appliances. Anything that
could cause a fire should be turned off.
Open the doors to rooms and the entrance of the house. Always
wear shoes even when inside a house to avoid injury as there
could be pieces of broken glass or other dangerous objects
on the floor.
It is possible that small shakes may occur following the
main quake. Remember to stay calm even when you
feel the aftershocks.
Before you leave the house, make sure you shut off the gas
supply valve as well as the circuit breaker. If you are in a
building, always use the stairs to evacuate. You should not
use elevators.
You should always walk when you evacuate. Never use cars,
motorcycles or bicycles. Do not try to take more than you
need for emergency survival.
open letter to Kneaders Bakery
Dear Kneaders Bakery,
I'm coming to visit you tomorrow, because I haven't been able to stop thinking about those Cream Cheese Brownies that you knocked me over with last week.
Just because I love your brownies so much doesn't mean I want you to come to my town. In fact, I DO NOT want you to open in Logan. I couldn't handle it if you did. Better if you and your brownies and your best-on-earth-and-so-crazy-that-you-only-make-it-in-the-fall pumpkin bread stay ninety minutes away from me so I don't have to "exercise integrity in the moment of choice" every day.
Sincerely, Debbie
ps - actually, it's all about the chocolate
it was the calm before the storm
Thousands of wood carvings and large amounts of gold leaf were used to decorate the buildings. This elaborate decor is not seen elsewhere in Japan, where simplicity has been the traditional emphasis. The cat carving above is an image that is seen everywhere in Japan because of the legend that goes with it.
The Toshogu is the mausoleum of the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate, which ruled Japan for over 250 years until 1868.
:: hope for Japan ::
Memories of lovely images and experiences keep surfacing as we remember the beauty of Japan and pray it will soon be restored.
We feel the same feelings our friend Nancy Crookston expressed in an email to me today, "My heart hurts for Japan. I feel such a kinship with that country as I am sure you do also, and I just can't believe the news." (Nancy is an award-winning oil painter and was honored to be a special guest artist and teacher at an exclusive gallery in Osaka, Japan.)
Scott's wonderful photographs of our time in Tokyo on the days before and after the earthquake are our tribute to the charm of Japan and its people. Tonight our special hope and prayer is for things to get better and not worse. And, of course, we pray for a special blessing on Gary and all those working with him.

The Adventures of the Olympic Gold Medal
Thursday 3rd November 2016
Throughout the week of the 31 October to 4 November, Queen Anne's has had the privilege of housing the latest gold medal of three time Olympic Champion, Andrew Triggs Hodge.
To find out about the adventures of the gold medal and its time with the Queen Anne's community, please read below.
Tuesday 1 November
"On Tuesday evening, Andrew Triggs Hodge's Olympic Gold found its way to Mander Court Residential Home during the Wilkins family and Duke of Edinburgh volunteers weekly visit. All the residents had the opportunity to hold the medal which they were very excited about and they all passed comment that it was a lot heavier than they thought it would be. Some of them knew who Andrew was and had watched the victorious eight cross the finishing line in Rio back in the summer which made it even more interesting for them to see the medal up close."
Wednesday 2 November
Mrs Chivers' L4 Chemistry group brought the medal to one of the IT rooms to conduct some research into "why is gold the best choice for a medal that you want to stay shiny and last forever?" I'm sure Andrew would agree, whatever the reason, it certainly stays shiny despite all the people asking to hold it.
L6 Economics
Our L6 Economics group looked at the impacts of the Rio Olympics on the Brazilian economy
The value of aggregate demand consists of the following components: Consumption + Investment + Government spending + (Exports-Imports)
Although Brazil seemed to fare worse than almost any other major economy, there was a significant increase in tourism. This in turn led to an increase in consumption because of the half a million people who visited Brazil over the course of the games even though $15 billion was needed initially to invest in the infrastructure to host the Olympics. The increase in tourism led to an increase in crime and theft rates, affecting not only tourists but the Brazilian locals. The increase in government spending caused controversy because, at the time, Brazil was struggling to pay wages for its local doctors and teachers and Brazil was left with $1 billion in debt. This has caused an increase in unemployment. The deficit in the government budget meant that there were issues with the standard of the games; swimming pool discolouration and shortages of food stalls for visitors, putting people off since they had paid so much to experience the life at the Olympics, leading to poor ticket sales and empty stadiums. There was an increase in investment in the infrastructure and provision of services which reduced seasonal and demand deficient unemployment but due to these only being seasonal, the unemployment figures resumed to similar pre-Olympic unemployment figures.
However the $15 billion that was invested into the Games has not all been lost because many of the landmarks that were built can be used as sustainable tourist attractions, creating jobs and revenue for Brazil in the future. There was an increase in export revenue which proved beneficial to the country's economy. Another problem Brazil was faced with was the volunteering system which included funding shortfalls and a lack of commitment by some of the volunteers who had signed up to help. It was estimated that 5%-10% of the people who volunteered did not show up, which stressed out those who did turn up. There was also a huge security presence hired to protect spectators. The income inequality between International Olympic Committee executives (earning around £700 a day) and the earnings of cleaners (earning around £10 a day) in the Olympic village caused outrage amongst the people of Brazil.

THE MARTYRS chalked up a hard-fought victory, their sixth in succession, over a physical Clevedon outfit in a game often disjointed by fussy match officials.
Jason Price grabbed the all-important goal for Merthyr after only five minutes, a thumping header from 10 yards out after Grant Thomas had capitalised upon a mistake by visiting defender Lee Jefferies.
The home side continued to apply pressure and after Craig Evans saw his 25-yard drive turned over by Dave Mogg, Andy Mainwaring missed a glaring opportunity when he miskicked in front of goal.
The visitors had more of the game in the second half but rarely troubled Neil Thomas and replacement goal-keeper Brendan Cropley, although efforts from both Hunt and Grantley Dicks flew just wide of the target.
Merthyr will be more than happy to take the three points and should move into the top six of the Dr Martens League Western Division.

Two teams going in opposite directions will meet Tuesday at Bell Centre when the Ottawa Senators bring their three-game winning streak into town to face the Montreal Canadiens, who have lost six of their past seven games (1-4-2).
Despite their recent struggles, the Canadiens (12-10-5) owned the second wild-card position in the Eastern Conference heading into games Monday.
The rebuilding Senators (12-12-3) have been riding some improved defense during their winning streak to pull within two points of the Canadiens in the standings. The Senators, who have allowed the most goals in the NHL (109), have given up five goals in their past three games and just two in their past two games.
"At the start of the year I knew we were not going to be good defensively," Senators coach Guy Boucher said Monday, "no matter how much time we would have spent on it because of personnel, age, experience and so on. You need to have something to hang your hat on and have something that makes you feel good."
Boucher said the team instead concentrated on scoring goals (which has worked, the Senators have scored 98 goals, third most in the NHL).
"We bet on the right thing," Boucher said. "The offense was there. The defensive part of the game is extremely dependent on the experience part. We knew it would take a lot of time for the young guys to get that experience."
Boucher said the players have made a commitment collectively to improve defensively.
"Right now there's a huge commitment," he said.
The Senators are coming off a 3-0 win against the New York Rangers on Thursday and a 6-2 win against the San Jose Sharks on Saturday.
"We've seen ourselves grow in the last two games," Senators goaltender Craig Anderson said. "The last game against the Rangers, we were outstanding for 60, and (Sunday) again, outstanding for 60 minutes. We're starting to string some momentum together, and playing in the right direction, playing the right way, and I think our guys are getting rewarded, too. We scored (six) goals."
The Canadiens are coming off a 3-1 loss to the Sharks on Sunday at Bell Centre. The Canadiens got behind early to the Sharks, 2-0, and never recovered.
"We're still a young team that's still trying to improve," Canadiens coach Claude Julien said on montrealcanadiens.com. "Learning to win is part of the development for a young team. You have to learn from these kinds of games, even if I found that we played well in the second and third periods.
"We can't start games like that and think we are going to win."
"Those two goals at the start hurt us," Canadiens forward Phillip Danault told the team's website. "They cost us the game. ... We got some momentum back in the third period, but it wasn't enough."
This will be the second game of the season between the Canadiens and the Senators and the first of three in a stretch of 12 days. After the game Tuesday, they meet in Ottawa on Thursday and back at Bell Centre Dec. 15.
The Senators twice overcame two-goal deficits to win 4-3 in overtime in their first meeting Oct. 20 in Ottawa.
Defenseman Justin Falk, signed as a free agent by the Senators on Friday, is expected to play his second game after a strong debut Saturday. Senators defensemen Mark Borowiecki and Maxime Lajoie are out with injuries.

During the summer, a few things can ruin your enjoyment of the warmer weather. Apart from it being too hot for your liking, one of the most annoying things is pests. Bugs can annoy you, destroy your garden, and even transmit diseases. You don't want them in your face, and you don't want them in your backyard. If you want to ensure bugs don't spoil your summer, you need to be proactive and take care of them. Before they manage to take over your yard, try some of the solutions below to get rid of some of the most annoying bugs.
How To Get Rid Of Garden Pests
Mosquitoes don't just annoy you by flying around. These blood-sucking parasites like to feast on you too, leaving red and itchy bumps behind. They can also carry illnesses, like West Nile virus and encephalitis. If you want to keep mosquitoes away, don't solely rely on citronella candles and bug spray. Treat your yard with a barrier spray. You can get a free quote from a treatment service so that you know what treatment works best, the frequency and, of course, the cost. It's time to banish these little buggers from the back yard.
Ticks can also make their way into your yard in the summer, particularly if you have long grass or dense plants for them to hide in. Ticks will attach themselves to you and your pets and can carry several diseases. If you want to avoid having a tick attach itself to you, you can treat your yard to help keep them away. Some pesticides will keep a range of pests away, but you'll also want to make sure that your pets have been treated for ticks and fleas so that they don't bring any in your home.
Some pests are just determined to destroy your garden. Aphids might be small, but their appetites are voracious. They're not that picky about where they live, and they suck the sap from plants. They can cause droopy leaves, mold growth and the spread of plant diseases. Spraying your plants with water can help to keep them away, but you can also encourage a kinder type of pest. Pick natural aphid predators, like ladybugs, which will take care of the problem by eating the aphids for you.
Butterflies might be beautiful, but caterpillars are less so. Some of them have cool colors, but they're a whole lot more destructive than a lovely butterfly. Their sole purpose is to eat as much as possible before they go into their cocoon and begin the transformation process. As with aphids, it's a good idea to encourage natural predators to take care of caterpillarproblems. It's a natural way to deal with a pest issue, which means you don't have to use any special products or chemicals.
Don't let pests take over your backyard this summer. Deal with some of the top culprits to ensure your yard stays yours.

laser etching
Laser etching is the process of using a highly concentrated beam of light to etch, or burn, a material's surface.
The advantage of using a laser is it's ability to precisely replicate intricate designs and monograms.
Our computer-driven laser machines are used to decorate many shapes and sizes of glass, crystal, wood, metals, acrylics, and leather. Computer imaging software is used to align, size and set the intensity of the laser beam for the image to be duplicated. Once all of the settings have been adjusted, the laser moves back and forth, etching the image into the material.

Vestal NY Dentists Support Local Food Pantry C.H.O.W.
Vestal Dental Associates is proud to support C.H.O.W, our local food pantry.
Below is a message from Garet, a local high school student, who is helping to organize this event. We encourage everyone to attend their festival fundraiser to take place on September 29th at Arnold.
Hi my name is Garet Bleir and I am an incoming senior at Vestal High School and am founder and member of a local club called the Association of Students. The clubs first mission is to organize a festival for C.H.O.W, our local food pantry, whose mission it is to assist those who are unable to feed their families throughout Broome County. As the 10th rainiest city in the U.S., Binghamton and the surrounding area are no stranger to flooding. As you know, in 2006 a flood ravaged our area, destroying and washing away many homes. Many either suffered personally or know of a friend or family member who did. The community came together and stayed strong as we were told that this was a once in a lifetime flood. But that was not the case. Again in 2011 the floodwaters came damaging or destroying 2408 homes and forcing the evacuation of 23139 people out of what was declared by Washington, a disaster area. These disasters accompanied by the closing of companies in our area such as IBM has caused the community to suffer. Broome County as of January 2013 has 10.1% of its population out of work and unemployed; much greater than the national average of 7.9% unemployment. C.H.O.W through its network of 30 food pantries located throughout Broome County along with 30 plus soup kitchens and community food programs is able to distribute 130,000 pounds of food per month, however without the communities continual help the community will go hungry. To help C.H.O.W on their mission, I am organizing a festival fundraiser to take place on September 29th at Arnold. I am working with CHOW and my team of 40 students ranging from incoming sophomores in Highschool to incoming juniors in college. For the festival we hope to have bands and other entertainment such as magicians and irish dancers, food vendors, games for kids, and tables for businesses to advertise their product or service.

Sharks unafraid heading into Game 5
PITTSBURGH — The Sharks were slashing down the Penguins' ice, kicking up ice chips, laughing, smiling, smashing each other into the boards and tossing out wisecracks.
For their off-day practice at the Consol Energy Center they looked loose and happy, like a bunch of kids skating on their backyard pond. Not like a desperate group of men on the grim brink of elimination.
"That was their usual," head coach Peter DeBoer said of the team's mood. "Burnsy (defenseman Brent Burns) was an ass out there running around. It was business as usual."
Thursday night will be anything but business as usual. The Sharks face their first Stanley Cup Finals elimination game in franchise history. For the first time ever, they will be playing in a building with the Stanley Cup trophy, and Champagne on ice, both ready to be presented to the Penguins if they win Game 5 and the championship.
One might think such an outcome is a given. The town will be nuts, thrilled about the possibility of the first major sports championship won in the city since the Pirates in 1960. Tickets along the glass are going for $10,000 each. The local paper is already debating who should win the Conn Smythe Trophy for the MVP of the postseason.
Not so fast, say the Sharks.
"I think the results are closer than it feels," DeBoer said. "We've got to give ourselves an opportunity. If they stumble, we've got to jump on it."
DeBoer was happy to see his team having fun in practice.
"This group is like that every day, all year," DeBoer said. "I'm glad I saw that today. You're never sure, considering the circumstance. I would have been worried had they come in quiet or dragging a little bit."
Instead the Sharks were having a blast. Why not? Hockey is super fun.
"Everything about this has been fun," Burns said. "You've got to enjoy the energy, the environment."
Joe Pavelski, smiling through his beard, agreed.
"We're still right here," he said. "If we find a way to win this game it breaths a little more life into us. This group has always had fun regardless of the situation."
Even DeBoer, who has been testy at times during this playoff run, snapping at reporters to hold off on the funeral after the Sharks' Game 2 loss, got into the spirit. He was asked the obligatory question about Tomas Hertl, whose absence has hurt the Sharks. Hertl has been injured since Game 1. It was reported by Czech television that Hertl is out for the season, contradicting DeBoer's updates.
Instead of being defensive, DeBoer had fun with it Wednesday.
"Day-to-day," he said. "In Czech that means out for the season. Well, I've heard that means out for the season, but I'm not a translator."
In a strange way, the Sharks own depressing past gives them hope. The darkest moment in franchise history — blowing a 3-0 lead to the Los Angeles Kings in 2014, a failure that led to many of the changes that created the new version of the Sharks — is now a rallying cry. If the Sharks could blow that kind of a lead, who's to say the Penguins can't too?
"We have some guys that vividly remember that," DeBoer said.
Those guys — Joe Thornton, Patrick Marleau, Pavelski and Logan Couture, to name a few — are the ones who will need to channel that knowledge and experience and put it to use in Game 5.
The Sharks have won one elimination game this postseason, on their own ice against Nashville. In NHL history, teams that have trailed 3-1 in a best of seven series have come back to win only 8.7 percent of the time. So, the statistics are saying there's a chance.
"There's no point in being negative," Marc-Eduoard Vlasic said. "We have to win tomorrow. Games 6 and 7 don't exist for us right now."
It all comes down to one game. Sixty minutes of hockey. Playing desperate hockey and having fun.
"We've just got to get our swag back," said Joel Ward.
Thursday night would be the time to do it.

So, what makes for a successful architectural visualisation?
It seems the next step in the series of blogs should be what makes for a successful one visualisation. Having written blogs about the importance of Architectural Visualisation, the ways in which they have been used and where they may be heading in the future, this seems the logical next step.
This idea of success in this context is completely dependent on the desires of the client, normally the architect, real estate agents, interior designers etc. will ask a visualiser to create the visuals in order to secure sales. The success therefore of architectural visualisation is measured in sales as a result of the images or interactive tours. It has come to my attention that the visualisations which the client like the most are the ones that engage them and give them the ability to relate to being in the space that has been created for them. Rather than just a drawing of the exterior or a floor plan, you can get a real sense of what the space is like, and also the quality of light and other aspects.
Composition and lighting, in particular, are crucial to making a useful visualisation, if you can't see anything it's going to be quite difficult to visualise your design. The light is also really important in affecting the colour palette chosen in your design. One of the earliest and most important design choice in creating a successful render is the sky and time of day. This choice will have a major effect on your interior and exterior design in terms of shadows and quite simply which aspects of the building you can see.
Another really crucial aspect of making visualisations useful for the consumer is the element of human input. These are after all being made for people and therefore the work should reflect this. Rather than giving, for example, an interior design, which simply includes some bland colour palettes with really minimal attention to detail, successful visualisations should offer something a bit more. Obviously, the content completely relies upon what the client desires, however giving a property design a suitable colour palette with perhaps the addition a few people to give a bit of character into the designs where appropriate would possibly give the client that little bit extra to help them decide on what they like. These personal touches are created by the artist who is trained to have a keen eye for colour contrasts and combinations that work well together and perhaps the input of people or not so.
Overall a lot of what makes a visualisation successful is dependent on the client's desires and of course the ability of the artists. A successful architectural visualisation could be the difference between a sale and constantly having to change your designs wasting precious resources (namely money).

MANSFIELD, Mass. – Stonehill junior Kacie Smith has been named the 2017 Northeast-10 Conference Field Hockey Player of the Year, it was announced on Wednesday as the league released its all-conference teams and major award winners. It's the second consecutive year that the high scoring forward has been recognized with this award.
For a complete list of all-conference members and award winners, as voted upon by the league's coaches, please see below. Overall, Merrimack led the way with five all-conference selections, followed by Saint Anselm who had four student-athletes selected.
A three-time national player of the week, Smith has scored 40 goals so far this season breaking the NE10 record. Her 40 goals matches the NCAA Division II single-season record set by Bloomsburg (Pa.) University's Jamie Vanartsdalen in 2008. She currently leads all three levels of NCAA field hockey in scoring and goals, while ranking second for assists, is also just four points shy of Vanartsdalen's single-season scoring record (102 points) with 97 points. Smith has scored in 17 of the Skyhawks 18 games this season. Nine times this season she has scored at least three goals in a game.
Smith has helped lead the Skyhawks to a 13-5 mark overall, and they will host Assumption in one NE10 semifinal game on Friday. She was also named a First Team All-Conference selection
Saint Anselm's Erin Collins was selected by the coaches as the conference's Defensive Player of the Year. The senior helped lead a back line that allowed only 18 goals in 18 games so far this season. She helped lead the Hawks to a 17-1 mark during the regular season, including the NE10 regular season title as Saint Anselm posted an 11-1 mark in conference play. So far this season, Collins' defensive group has posted eight shutouts. She has also chipped in offensively, having registerd six goals so far this season and adding four assists. Her 16 points actually puts her in the top 30 in the league. Collins was also named a First Team selection.
Pace's Lesly Sanchez-Alvarez was tabbed the NE10 Goalkeeper of the Year following an outstanding season in net for the Setters. Sanchez-Alvarez led the league in goals against average (0.88) and save percentage (.830). She started all 19 games for a resurgent Pace team this season, and allowed only 17 goals all season long. She was a big part of the Setters being among the national leaders in virtually every statistical category this fall. Sanchez-Alvarez was also named a First Team All-Conference selection.
Southern New Hampshire's Helene Servais was named the NE10 Rookie of the Year.

VIA chief Arndt keeps the buses running on time
Jeffrey Arndt, the CEO of San Antonio's VIA Metropolitan Transit, has an almost perfect set up for success — if only local voters would get on board with his vision.
The city council he reports to shares his views on the importance of public transportation, they mostly sing his praises and have increased VIA funding by millions of dollars in recent years.
But it comes with restrictions. He said he knows the seamless transit systems he sees in Europe - linking ferries, subways, buses, rail, street cars - are politically untenable in most of Texas. Dallas, Houston and Austin residents tax themselves a full cent per dollar in local sales taxes to support mass transit, while San Antonio has stayed with just a half-cent.
Arndt, 63, came to San Antonio and VIA in 2012 from Houston, where he spent 25 years with Houston METRO and participated in the planning of METRORail, a 24-mile system opened in 2004 that withstood a 20-year fight by opponents, including former U.S. Rep Tom DeLay, who stripped it of federal funding.
He holds a master's in public administration from the University of Houston and a bachelor's in civil engineering from the University of Notre Dame. He currently serves on several boards, including the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce, San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Texas Diversity Council, United Way, San Antonio for Growth on the Eastside (SAGE), and the Texas Transit Association, which in March named VIA the "outstanding metropolitan transit system" in Texas — and also named Arndt as its outstanding public transportation general manager in 2017.
Arndt grew up in La Porte, Indiana, and has two grown children from his first marriage, and two grandchildren, who live in Houston.
He presides over a 2018 budget of $228.6 million that includes $4.3 million this year and $10 million next year allocated by the city council to help cut wait times for buses.
The Express-News recently sat down with Arndt. Here's an edited transcript of that interview.
Bruce Selcraig is a San Antonio Express-News staff writer. | firstname.lastname@example.com

Université Paris-Dauphine opens a Casablanca Campus
On October 18th 2016, Université Paris-Dauphine inaugurated a continuing education campus in Casablanca.
On October 18th 2016, following on Tunis, London and Madrid, Université Paris-Dauphine inaugurated its Casablanca campus devoted to executive education. The Casablanca campus participates in the university's long-term commitment to Africa. Paris-Dauphine has a deep-rooted relationship with the continent, and in particular with Morocco, where it has long-established joint academic programs and a significant group of Dauphine Alumni.
Dauphine believes that Africa will play an increasingly significant geopolitical role and that higher education is key to its future development. Although expectations in Africa are high, local options for pursuing a top-level university education are currently insufficient. Paris-Dauphine would like the Casablanca campus to serve as a regional and sub-Saharan hub of educational excellence.
Casablanca offers a curriculum tailored to the continuing education needs of practicing professionals, with 7 programs adapted to the Moroccan context:
- Islamic Finance: Practices and Principals
- Real Estate Management
- Health Care Management
- Business Information Systems – Audit and Business Advisory
- Financial Jurist
- Private Banking and Wealth Management
- Financial Engineering
The Casablanca campus benefits from all of Dauphine's expertise and academic excellence in the area of executive education as well as the university's unique research-based approach to teaching. Members of the Dauphine faculty, recognized for their research and experts in their fields, coordinate the Casablanca program and teach a majority of the courses. Their teaching will be supplemented with the participation of local business leaders, managers and consultants who will share their experience with program participants.

Are we missing chronic pancreatitis? And does it matter?
The answer to both these questions is yes according to Dr Darren Pavey, gastroenterologist and senior lecturer at the University of NSW.
Speaking at the HealthEd General Practice Education seminar in Sydney recently, Dr Pavey said there was good international research that suggested many cases of chronic pancreatitis were going undiagnosed and the condition was far more prevalent than previously recognised.
Overseas studies including cohorts of randomly selected adult patients suggest a prevalence of between 6 to 12%, with the condition being more likely among patients with recent onset type 2 diabetes, excess alcohol intake, smokers and those over 40 years of age, he said.
And in response to the question of whether it is important to diagnose this condition, Dr Pavey said chronic pancreatitis not only caused immediate symptoms usually including pain, diarrhoea and weight loss, but commonly had longer-term consequences such as pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (where there is less than 10% pancreatic function) and an increased risk of diabetes, malnutrition and even pancreatic cancer.
Certainly, an incentive to diagnose and treat earlier rather than later.
Part of the challenge in recognising the condition is that the classic triad of symptoms, namely abdominal pain, diarrhoea and weight loss are common to a variety of medical conditions, including IBD and IBS.
What's more, abdominal pain, which many doctors would have thought had to be present with pancreatitis, does not always occur in chronic pancreatitis, especially when it is idiopathic which is the more common variety of chronic pancreatitis.
In fact, pain is only present in about half the cases of idiopathic chronic pancreatitis. Idiopathic pancreatitis constitutes 55% of all cases, the other 45% being alcohol-related. Abdominal pain tends to be a more consistent feature of alcoholic chronic pancreatitis.
So, if you have a patient in the right age group (about 40 to 60 years), who has chronic diarrhoea, weight loss and maybe abdominal pain, and you suspect they might have chronic pancreatitis, what do you do?
The most common screening test for chronic pancreatitis was now a faecal elastase-1 stool test, requiring a single formed stool sample, Dr Pavey said.
The test has a high specificity and sensitivity (both over 90%) and is readily available to Australian GPs, although it does not attract a Medicare rebate and costs approximately $60.
The test is positive if the concentration of faecal elastase is less than 200mcg/g.
In terms of imaging, CT is usually the option of first choice with signs of calcification and atrophy being pathognomonic of significant chronic pancreatitis.
Aside from the need to stop drinking and smoking, treatment revolves around replacement of the pancreatic enzymes, which is available as a capsule taken orally (Creon). The deficiency of these enzymes is the chief cause of the diarrhoea, malabsorption, and weight loss, so replacing them not only alleviates the symptoms but will also help prevent some of significant sequelae associated with this ongoing condition.
Dr Pavey advises starting patients with known chronic pancreatitis on 25,000 lipase units (Creon) with every meal and 10,000 units with every snack, and recommends patients eat six smaller meals during the day rather than three larger meals. This replacement therapy would then be titrated up.
There is no need to put patients on a reduced fat diet when they are on pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy, however they often have a highly acidic upper gastrointestinal environment and required acid suppression treatment.
In conclusion, Dr Pavey advises: "[Doctors] should be aware of the problem of underdiagnosing this condition and have a low threshold for checking faecal elastase and assessing pancreatic insufficiency."

Mitch corresponded with the school direct to discuss their requirements and arranged for suitable works to be undertaken. The works involves adding a new internal meeting room to the staff room, and the formation of two small rooms within the existing community support room.
Large studs were erected to the proposed locations, these were then second fixed with skirting, architraves and doors all machined up in our local workshop to match the existing styles within the school.

It is one of the most popular kids' television shows right now – and our little ones cannot seem to get enough of Peppa Pig and her friends. So, children and their parents alike are bound to be excited to hear that a new Peppa themed music and movement programme is hitting Hull. Move with Peppa, a nationwide franchise, will launch new classes across the city next month. The classes are a series of movement, dance and physical activity classes for children aged 16 months to five years old and are created using stories from the award winning TV episodes.
Children across Hull will be able to learn the specially created 'Peppa Steppa' Dance routine and get the chance to immerse themselves in the magic of Peppa and her friends. Each 30 to 45 minute class is designed to build motivation, physical confidence, coordination, balance and agility and will run in six or 12 week blocks from February 27. Holly Woodford, founder, said: "We are passionate about getting people of all ages moving. Despite the rising level of inactivity in under-fives, physical activity provision for this age group in the UK is surprisingly limited.
"We wanted to create a programme that would excite and inspire young children as they experience physical exercise for the first time. "Children across the country have fallen in love with Peppa Pig through their TV screens, so how better to inspire younger generations to be active than through Peppa themed exercises."

Whenever you are a homeowner, there will probably come a time when you will want a change. Perhaps you have lived in your house for three months, maybe three years, or maybe even thirty years, but you want a different look. You don't need to relocate into a new home; you can just upgrade your kitchen instead. In most cases, individuals are hesitant to look at remodeling even if they really want to make changes. Should that be the way it is for you, be sure to carefully think about if you truly want to remodel your kitchen.
Continue reading for more information to help you determine whether or not to remodel your kitchen. Certainly, you'll need to do some repairs on your kitchen if you notice any areas of disintegration.

You should be sure to take care of any issues that are actual safety concerns even if you choose to delay making cosmetic improvements.

If you do have the money, and your kitchen demands some work, you really should fix it up.
The kitchen is undoubtedly an important area of your house. Most of the time, a kitchen is the hub of family life where families come together to eat and chat with each other. It really is delightful to spend time in the kitchen during happy occasions, so anything that you can do to maintain this feeling will be a positive experience.

***When you click on the links showing who is hiring, you need to click again on the BLACK, "Go To" link, in order to read the article relating to the companies specific growth plans.
Per the White House:
Today we are excited to announce that Intel has pledged to make a $7 billion investment in Arizona, creating 10,000 jobs!
Companies across America are making the commitment to creating thousands of new jobs everyday:
Companies across the US that are growing, expanding and hiring in multiple industries:
Japanese machinery maker Nissei Plastic Industrial Co. Ltd. will invest $20 million to set up a U.S. manufacturing operation to build its injection molding presses in San Antonio.
Reshoring of plastics molding to the United States played a role in the decision, Nissei officials said.
Nissei officials said construction is beginning this month and should be completed in November at the factory in Brooks City-Base, south of downtown San Antonio. Production is expected to start in February 2018, Nissei said.
Guess what top global companies have (and which ones lack) the most empathetic cultures and retain the best talent?
This list surprised me!
How was the research compiled? I find the combination of analyzing tweets, Glassdoor and reported scandals quite fascinating:
…We break down empathy into categories: ethics, leadership, company culture, brand perception, and public messaging through social media. Our publicly available metrics including CEO approval ratings from staff, ratio of women on boards, and number of accounting infractions and scandals. This year we added a carbon metric. The financial information came from S&P Capital IQ, and the employee information from Glassdoor. We analyzed 2 million tweets from between September 27 and October 16 this year. An additional source of qualitative data expanded the survey: We used a panel selected from the World Economic Forum's Young Global Leaders. The leaders were asked to rate the companies' morality.

Barnsley won for just the third time in 20 outings in all competitions - two of those wins have come against Birmingham.
The Reds also ended a club record run of 18 games without managing to score more than once in a game - the last team they had scored more than once against prior to yesterday? Birmingham.
Those two victories over the Blues gave the Reds their first league double against the Second City outfit since 1946-1947 and only their second ever.
Oliver McBurnie now has three goals from three starts for Barnsley, he is the first Reds player to score a brace since Tom Bradshaw at Millwall in September.
He could have been the first Barnsley player to score a hattrick since Sam Winnall in January 2016 but missed a first half penalty.
It is only the third penalty Barnsley have been awarded this season, it is the first missed since October 2016 when Sam Winnall was denied against Bristol City.
As well as being the first time Barnsley scored more than once since November, it is the first time they have scored two first half goals since the 31st October in the 4-2 win at Burton.
It is only the second time this season the Reds have led by two goals at half time in the Championship, the only occasion being the 3-0 win over Sunderland in August.
This was Barnsley's fourth away win of the season and they have so far picked up 16 points on their travels - in contrast to just three wins and 15 points at Oakwell.
Barnsley are now unbeaten in five meetings with Birmingham (W3 D2) with the same recent record at St Andrews.
The Reds have also kept clean sheets in three of the last five visits, scoring 12 times themselves.
It is the first time they have kept clean sheets in both league meeings with Birmingham since 1998-1999 when both meetings finished 0-0.
This was also a big win for goalkeeper Nick Townsend. He made his 14th start for the Reds yesterday and ended up on the winning side for just the fourth time (and first since September 2015)
It was also only the second time Townsend has kept a clean sheet for Barnsley, the other occasion being a 2-0 League One win over Gillingham - the last time he was on the winning side.
Brad Potts started a game for the first time since the 20th January, the Reds have lost only one of the last four Championship matches that he has started.
It was also a first start since October for Adam Jackson following a knee injury - the Reds have lost only one of the last five matches he has started.
Yesterday was the first time Tom Bradshaw did not start a game since the New Year's Day win at Sunderland, and the first time he did not get any minutes on the pitch since the 5th November 2016 - he had appeared in 68 games in a row in all competitions.
Birmingham have now lost their last four Championship games, failing to score each time - their longest losing run without scoring since October 2005 (also five), en route to relegation from the Premier League.
The Blues have failed to score in 18 different Championship games this season, more than any other side in the division.
No Barnsley player was shown a card for the first time in nine matches in all competitions.

Birmingham manager Steve Cotterill said:
"They're unrecognisable from the team they were a month ago and the difference is confidence.
"We looked nervous as anything in the first half and there wasn't enough players getting on the ball and you can't have that.
"I don't think we are strong enough as a squad and we didn't strengthen in the window and I think we could have done with doing that. We've had a few injuries and suspensions and it's thrown us out all over the place.
"It's not nice to take the stick I take but if it's someone else managing the team in a month's time then they're in the same situation because it'll be the same players going out on the pitch."

Shortly after failing to land slugging firstbaseman Carlos Delgado, Whitney's Mets went 180 degrees in another direction, grabbing slick-fielding Doug Mientkiewicz from the Sox in return for Single A firstsacker Ian Bladergroen (can't we sign a Smith to play first?). While I won't miss having to hunt and peck Mientkiewicz, I did enjoy watching Dougie M play his position - and so will Whit, meaning as it does that he won't have to suffer through the improvisational fielding stylings of Mike Piazza.
Today's blogtitle refers to both the chain of events that led the Mets to settle for Mientkiewicz, and one of the most sublimely ridiculous dubbed movie lines in history. You may remember the famous line from Die Hard, when Bruce Willis' John McClain tells his adversary, "Yippee-ki-ay, motherfucker." What you likely don't remember is how broadcast TV cleaned up McClain's naughty words, turning a great line into the grince-inducing (that's grin/wince), "Yippee-ki-ay, melonfarmer". Melonfarmer? Indeed.

Upper Austria
Linz is a little bit different. This "City of Smart Tourism" has historic beauty aplenty: Its expansive main square – located right by the Danube – and its quaint Old Town have a relaxed and authentic feel.
But Linz is also defined by a constant desire for change and innovation. Once primarily an industrial centre, Linz has become a pioneer when it comes to culture, art and technology. Home to a harbour that doubles as one of Europe's biggest graffiti galleries and the cutting-edge art-slash-technology museum Ars Electronica Center, Linz is a destination for travellers looking for the unfamiliar.
We sent BFFs Joanna and Emily from London on a mission: Visit Linz and bring back the perfect selfie. But their visit turned into much more than that – they discovered a city full of creative energy and surprises. See for yourself (and find out more about the places they visited here):
Culture in Linz is extraordinarily diverse. There's interactive art in the virtual worlds of the Ars Electronica Center. On the opposite bank of the Danube, masterpieces of the 19th and 20th centuries are on display in the striking glass-and-steel Lentos Museum of Art. The art museum's collection is comprehensive; the most significant are paintings by Klimt, Schiele and Kokoschka, as well as sculptures and graphics from Warhol, Haring and Export.
You can enjoy world-class music and drama in the Brucknerhaus and the Landestheater, leading-edge offerings in the OK Offenes Kulturhaus Oberösterreich, and exhibitions in the Museums of the Province of Upper Austria. In addition, in April 2013, the new Musiktheater lifted the curtain as Europe's most advanced opera house.
Big events highlight the cultural calendar in Linz. The Pflasterspektakel Festival of Street Art, Danube Summer, Ars Electronica Festival, Linzer Klangwolken (Cloud of Sound), Brucknerfest, Linzer Advent and Winter Culture offer regional and international art and culture for every taste.
Linz's Old Town is the ideal setting for strolls through charming cobblestone streets and past centuries-old architecture. Its spacious Main Square is one of the largest in Central Europe. The continent's steepest traction railway takes you on a leisurely ride up Pöstlingberg for a panoramic view of the city. When the visibility's good, you can see all the way to the Alps. And what better way to follow that up than with a boat ride on the beautiful blue Danube?
Needless to say, culture and scenery aren't all that Linz has to offer. One of Austria's most popular shopping districts is right in the heart of downtown Linz. And when you're ready for a refreshing break, consider dropping in on one of Linz's many cafés and trying a world-famous Linzer Torte!

The Z.one ultra system convertible ultrasound platform features advanced software, hardware and transducer technology, including a newly introduced basic cardiac package.
Clinicians are able to convert the z.one system, at the touch of a button, from a full-featured, cart-based system into a compact ultrasound system, reportedly optimizing its versatility in a variety of clinical settings, without sacrificing image quality.

I was happy to see this little tutorial on the internet because it was a favourite with my Year 7 boys last year. It's from a book called 100 Pretty Little Projects which is chock full of cute things to make. I copied the shapes and colours when I made my zombie but everybody else did their own thing. Joel's zombie has falling-out brains and bites in it's arms.
Today 12 different new colours of felt arrived in my classroom, ready for zombie making next week. Just in time for Valentine's Day.

Premier League's all time top goalscorer Alan Shearer has backed Manchester United's summer signing Romelu Lukaku to score between 25 to 30 goals on his debut season with the Red Devils. The Belgian opened his account with two goals for his new club, as United put four past West Ham United and went top of the table after the end of the opening weekend on goal difference.
The Europa League winners put in a flawless performance to open proceedings at Old Trafford, with Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba completing an industrious day in office. Shearer reckons that the striker will be an upgrade on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who despite his goalscoring form, was nearing the end of his career, while the 24-year-old is set to enter his prime as a goalscorer.
The 4-0 win was Mourinho's best as the United manager and the club is being backed as the early favourites for the league title, with Manchester City also opening the weekend with a win. Chelsea opened their campaign with a shock loss to Burnley and ended the game with nine men, as Gary Cahill and Cesc Fabregas were sent off. Liverpool were also held to a draw against Watford in a thrilling 3-3 finish.
"It was a complete centre-forward performance. He was aggressive, he had pace, he gave his team-mates options and his touch was excellent. More important when you look at a centre forward, he has to deliver goals and he did that today. He was just superb and horrible to play against," Shearer said, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
"What they had last year with Ibrahimovic was a very good player but someone who was coming towards the end of his career. What they have got now in Lukaku is a guy who is 24-years of age, who's into his prime, who's been around the Premier League for five years.
"Now I think he could go onto the next level. He will get more chances playing in a better team. He could, should and probably will get between 25 and 30 league goals this season."

Miroslava Duma, one of the most stylish ladies out there, known as fashion IT girl, a socialite though she doesn't like to be called a socialite saying: The socialite label did bother me as it couldn't be further from the truth. You'll never see me drinking and dancing at fashion parties … After all the shows, presentations, meetings and business dinners [during fashion week], I'm straight back to the hotel putting my kids to bed. [So if I am one, then] I'm the world's most boring socialite,"
My 'squad' aren't cool socialites, influencers or fashion celebrities. My squad are the chief executives of fashion and tech companies and the coolest tech nerds.

For most men suffering from unsatisfactory sexual performance, poor blood flow to the penis is the major contributor to erectile troubles, which is why improving blood flow to this area in a sustainable way is key to restoring sexual function and promoting penile health. At the office of Hayle Aldren, MD, in Phoenix, Dr. Aldren provides scientifically proven, state-of-the-art GAINSWave therapy to promote blood flow in a safe and totally non-invasive manner without drugs or surgery. If you want to hear more about this breakthrough treatment option, call Dr. Aldren to schedule your consultation or book an appointment online today.
GAINSWave therapy is a new type of medical procedure that uses low-intensity supersonic pulse waves to improve sexual function in a sustainable way and provide stronger, harder, longer-lasting erections. It is the only non-invasive procedure that treats the root cause of erectile dysfunction in men.
As a type of extracorporeal shockwave treatment (ESWT), it is very different from the sound waves in ultrasound or infrasonic therapy and uses an FDA-cleared, class 1 medical device approved for improving blood flow and breaking up scar tissue. Medical studies report ESWT to have up to a 76% success rate in treating ED (Ther Adv Urol. 2013 Apr; 5(2): 95-99).
Dr. Aldren first began using ESWT in sports medicine to break up scar tissue, strengthen connective tissue, and restore blood flow to damaged areas that otherwise would not heal. He now uses GAINSWave to heal the male sexual system in similar ways.
GAINSWave can help any man, not only those with ED, to experience stronger erections and more intense orgasms. Men who can benefit include:
GAINSWave has no known side effects as shown by 15 years of use in Europe and a number of clinical research studies. But there are a few situations where caution should be exercised:
Using a small handheld device attached to the acoustic pulse wave generator, Dr. Aldren or his assistant applies several series of low-intensity sound wave treatments to your penis and surrounding areas for about 20 minutes. As soon as the anesthetic cream wears off, you are free to engage in sexual relations.
The acoustic waves in GAINSWave perform several important functions for your sexual well-being:
The end result of these actions is greater blood flow to your penis, greater sensitivity, and better sexual performance, which will continue to improve for the next 10-12 weeks.
Unlike other types of erectile dysfunction treatment options, GAINSWave is non-invasive and involves no medication. It is the only non-invasive procedure that directly treats the root cause of ED.
This therapy can also provide benefits not found with older ED treatments, including increased sensation in the penis, more spontaneous erections, a return of morning and nighttime erections, and better orgasms. It is one of the few treatments that can help improve the symptoms of Peyronie's disease.
For best results, GAINSWave therapy typically requires between 6-12 treatments, each lasting about 15-20 minutes. Most patients report noticeable improvements near the end of their treatment cycle, and depending on your age you can expect these results to usually last up to 2 or so years before additional treatment might be necessary. Some patients will need more than the standard number of treatments to reach their goal.
Dr. Aldren provides preventive and maintenance GAINSWave treatments if you want to stay in top condition and don't want to worry about losing the benefits of the therapy over time.
Do you have Peyronie's disease or are you suffering from erectile dysfunction? Do you want a better sex life? If so, the office of Hayle Aldren, MD, in Phoenix can help. Call to schedule your consultation or book your appointment online today.
