"Why is math so hard?" I hear my friend yell as he stumbles down the stairs, comically bumping into a supporting pole in the process. "Yeah, at least you got the answer", I think. I look down - my freshly-marked midterm looks back up at me condescendingly.
You know, this post was originally supposed to start off differently. The title used to be, and I quote, "University isn't about friendship or learning. It's about keeping your f**king sanity." But I held off, promising I would come back to it later AFTER I got my midterm results. And, boy, were those midterm results... fun. There were "yes!" moments, "oh no!" moments, and, of course, "this curve makes me a boosted animal" moments. But, above all, there were "I'm glad I didn't go through this alone" moments.
University/College has been uniquely counterintuitive in this respect. On one hand, you're locking yourself in your room for hours at a time doing math assignments. On the other, you're constantly seeking ways to get out of said room and into the world - the irony of giving up on math homework to play card-based math games (163 anyone??) was never lost of me. Yet, somehow, we all made it through (relatively?) unscathed. Together.
Thinking back to high school, I finally understand what my computer engineering teacher meant when he told me the challenges of University would be so much fun. I mean, sure, certain assignments from a certain professor of mine are at least partially responsible for driving me to the edge of insanity at times. But, you know what, I don't blame them. In the end, I, and the rest of my friends, came out smarter, stronger, and better prepared to face the world of... assignments :).
So as I sit here relishing in my friend's piano playing (and procrastinating a certain assignment from a certain professor), I am struck by just how lucky I and, really, all of us are. Sure, we're passing through hell together. Sure, we're crying together and laughing together and falling asleep doing math together. And, sure, we're probably going insane together. But you know what? We are there for each other - day in and day out. So long as I know that's true, I know we're going to make it through.
I know it. I really do.

Orton Gillingham
What is the Orton-Gillingham Teaching Approach?
Orton-Gillingham is an instructional approach intended mainly for those who are experiencing the learning and language problems associated with dyslexia. This approach is most often a one-on-one individualized teaching method.
This teaching method was founded around the 1930's by Samuel T. Orton and Anna Gillingham. Samuel Orton was a neuropsychiatrist and a pathologist who focused on reading problems and language processing difficulties. Around 1925, Orton had identified the syndrome of dyslexia as an educational problem. Anna Gillingham was not a scientist, but an educator and a psychologist. With the encouragement of Dr. Orton, she wrote, and later published, books and other educational materials. This provided the foundation to train teachers in what would become the Orton-Gillingham approach.

This is the best account to date of the entry of the Wereley family into the Stormont County area of Canada West, now Ontario.
From Cornwall, Ontario, Canada Newspaper, Friday December 22, 1933:
OSNABRUCK PIONEERS DESCRIBE THE DAYS OF TALLOW CANDLES By Down the Lane
Going back into the family history about 127 years, when his granfather came as a United Empire Loyalist from New York State and settled on 200 acres of land in the 4th concession of Osnabruck, near Lunenburg, Alonzo Wereley, now in his 81st year, related some interesting incidents of the past in that section to Down The Lane a few nights ago.
And, not to be outdone, his genial wife, Mrs. Wereley, had her say also, and, as only a period of four months separate the couple in age, and they were born but a few miles apart, one could verify in large measure what the other related, and in this way the visit was not only interesting, but enjoyable.
Mr. and Mrs. Wereley were seen at the home of their daughter, Mrs. Geo. Fyke, 29 Fourth St. east. They have spent the last six years in Cornwall with their daughters, Mrs. Fyke and Mrs. Thos. A Sanderson, 39 First St. east.
Alonzo Wereley's grandfather, Peter Wereley, together with a brother George Wereley and two sisters, Mary Wereley, who afterwards became Mrs. Frederick Poapst, and Margaret Wereley, who married a Mr. Coons, all came from New York State as U.E. Loyalists. Peter was born in 1789 and at the age of 17 he and his brother and sisters were among the first settlers on Crown Lands in Osnabruck's 4th concession. He died in 1871 at the age of 82 years and Alonzo Wereley is carrying on the family tradition as to age very well.
"I often heard my grandfather tell of the depredations of wolves in those early days said Mr. Wereley. Wolves were very plentiful and one day one of his cows came home with her faced all scratched and bleeding after fighting to keep the wolves away from her calf."
Peter and George Wereley settled on adjoining farms, each having 100 acres and Peter often carried feed in a sack on his back across the length of one farm to the other.
Alonzo Wereley was born two miles east of Lunenburg on June 8,1853, and was 80 years old last June. He was a son of James Wereley, also a native of that section. Alonzo was educated in the school in School Section 15. At the age of ten years he was on the end of a plow and at 12 years drove a team in a shanty at Casselman all winter. In 1875 he went to Sacramento, Calif, and ranched and worked in the mountains for a year and a half.
He then returned to Lunenburg and a year and a half later struck West again and engaged in lumbering near Carson City, Nev. and then went to Bodia, Calif. where he secured employment in a gold mine.
The lure of the homelalnd again got the better of him and he returned East in the fall of 1880, and has resided in this section ever since.
Mr. Wereley drew ship's knees from Crysler, hauling them to Wales where they were sold to Sam Warren, father of Fred Warren. This was before the C.P.R. was built through Finch, the Grand Trunk being the only railroad in this district.
"There was plenty of hard work on the farm when I was a boy and young man," Mr. Wereley said, "but I am glad I have lived to see so much advancement in farming, with all the modern machinery now in use. To look back on those days, farming is a much easier task now, and one can get to town now in an automobitle in a short time, where it used to take hours on horseback or on foot."
Alonzo Wereley was one of a family of five children of James Wereley and his wife Sarah Ann Dixon, a daughter of Robert Dixon. The children were Alonzo, Angeline (Mrs. Ellsworth Stoffer, dead]; Agnes (Mrs George Shaver] now 73 years old, and residing in St. John Mich., Emma [Mrs.W.R. Osgood] aged 67 years and also a resident of St. John, Mich.
Mrs. Wereley died in 1871, at the age of 36 years, and Mr. Wereley afterwards married Mary Ann Scott, of Finch Township. Of the union six children were born - John, now of Crysler,; Jessie [Mrs. Frank Hackett], of Oswego, N.Y.; Charlotte [Mrs. Stanley Mattice dead; Davis, of Finch village; Allan, dead; Margaret [Mrs. Orris Dezell] Lisbon, N.Y., dead.
Mr. and Mrs Wereley were married Nov. 29, 1881, at Wales by W.A.Lang , of the Pres. Church, Lunenburg. Mrs Wereley's maiden name was Etta Catherine Shaver, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Shaver, of Osnabruck Centre, where she was born Oct. 12, 1853. Mrs. Wereley's mother died when she was but six months old, and she was raised by her granparents, Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Morgan, and her aunt, Miss Diana Morgan, near Wales.
Mrs. Wereley's father was born Sept. 12, 1814 and her mother Oct 15, 1822 both in the township of Osnabruck. "I remember," said Mrs. Wereley, "that my grandfather, Gilbert Morgan, made the first horse-drawn hay rake used in the township, and what a curiosity it was. Wheels were provided for it by taking them off the buggy when it was not in use, and when the buggy was wanted the wheels were remove from the rake and put back."
She related that hay was mowed by hand with scythes and farmers frequently had bees among themselves to help one another cut. "and beleive me farming was real laborous in those days" she said with a twinkle in her sharp eyes. Made What He Needed
"Grandfather also made chairs, churns and other household needs; was a cobbler and carpenter when occasion demanded such service and was, in fact, a Jack of all trades. I still have a chair made by him and so has my daughter, Mrs. Fyke. The chairs were all hand-made, the seat being made from the bark of trees and fastened crossways and sideways to the frame. This gave them a springy repose to one's weight and they were quite substantial and comfortable."
Members of the families of both Mr. and Mrs. Wereley did their own spinning, grew their own flax and made their own clothes. Spinning wheels and all appurtenances connected with the trade were all handmade.
Tallow Lights
"How did you light your homes in your girlhood days?" we asked Mrs. Wereley
"This was done," she replied "by placing a quantity of tallow in a dish or plate. A rag was twisted and place in the tallow and when it became saturated it was lighted and threw a glow through the room."In reply to a question as to whether matches were is use, Mrs. Wereley replied that flints were used for lighting purposes. That was before the tallow candel and its holder and snuffer came into use, and no doubt the twisted tallow saturated rag gave the idea to some inventive mind and the upright candle was the outcome, with the wick running through the centre. When the candle was introduced people marvelled, of course, and as with many improvements since, the wonder was that someone dod not think of the idea long before they did.
"Rodney Morgan, of the 2nd concession of Osnabruck was the first farmer to own a coal oil lamp so far as I can recall," said Mrs. Wereley. "That was aabout 65 years ago and you may be sure it brought added comfort to the Morgan home. Soon others discarded the tallow candle for the oil lamp, and both these were eventually succeeded by electricity to a large extent in city and town as well as in many homes in the country."
But the lowly tallow candle and coal oil lamp are not to be despised even in this advanced age, for when the electrics fail, which is not frequently, fortuanately, these ancient modes of lighting are gladly resorted to for illumination.
Osnabruck in Early Days
Both Mr. and Mrs. Wereley remembered when work on a farm was harder than at present and when modes of travel were vastly different and not so rapid and convenient as they are today. In saying so Mrs. Wereley was no doubt reminded of her courting days, for she stated that "boys and girls had to do their courting on horse bacck or else be forced to walk long distances.
Buggies and other conveyances were not so plentiful as they later
(article is incomplete - ends here)
It is interesting to note that, although this article seems to cite Peter "Psalter" Wereley as the main player in the relocation of the Wereley family to Canada, it was actually his older brother, George Wereley, who acquired the property and conveyed a portion to Peter. George acquired the property in 1816 from Catherine Valentine, who acquired it earlier that same year from John Hare. Hare was granted the concession by the crown in 1797. Peter Wereley did not own land there until 1817. The source for the article, Alonzo Wereley, was of the Peter "Psalter" Wereley line, and this most likely was the cause for his bias toward Peter over Great-Uncle George. Note also that the Wereley name was commonly spelled Werley, Wearly or even Weerlie in those days.

I have been using the Cpap machine since 2013. My sleep has improved since using the machine. I wake up feeling refreshed and have more energy to do the activities I could not do before due to feeling tired.
I have been using my machine for about 6 years. Before I started using my machine I was always very tired. In the morning I felt fine, but within an hour or so I started to feel sleepy. I would fall asleep in church or even watching TV. I had no control over falling asleep. While driving one morning I feel asleep at the wheel and had an accident. Thankfully I didn't get hurt. Now I feel more rested in the morning and I have more energy to do my housework. I wouldn't give up my CPAP machine for anything.
I have been using a CPAP machine for at least 3 years. Recently I Changed to a new company for CPAP services and I love it. My old machine was noisy and did not have a humidifier attachment. On my old machine the pressure was set at one constant level which interfered with my asthma. The new machine is great and I'm sleeping better than ever. The new mask is much smaller then before. It doesn't feel like I have one on. The pressure is regulated by my breathing not the machine setting. all in all a great machine. I wouldn't sleep without it.

Robert Carter writes to Weymouth merchant Edward Tucker, May 25, 1728, to report the arrival of Captain Willson after a long voyage via Antigua, several bills of exchange, Captain Brett's inability to take his tobacco, and his hope that Willson will be able to carry it. The bulk of the letter is devoted to persuading Tucker, a member of the House of Commons, to support the colony's desire to repeal the act of Parliament probhibiting the importation of stemmed tobacco into England. In a post script dated July 8th, Carter notes that he plans to send 30 hogsheads of tobacco in Captain Willson's ship, reports bills of exchange, and orders beer, malt, and ale.
After a round about Voyage by the way of
Antego Capt: Willson came Safe in at last, I had Some damage
in my Beer Necessity forced him in his long passage to refresh
his men and himself with Some of it; but that he and I shall
Herein Send you a bill of Exchange
of Thos: Edwards
for £13:12:3:d Also John Kirks for £8"9:11 both on your Self
which desire Credit for,
Capt: Brett
soon after his coming in Spoke to me
for Some freight, Accordingly I promised him, but the number of
hhds: I could not then tell, I was a long time kept from home at
our Assembly and General Court , he sent two Sloops into our
parts, the last was after I got home and might have taken in
Some of my Tobbo: but he had Some better freinds to pleasure
I Suppose and so left me totally out Capt: Willson I intend to
ship upon if he doth not Serve me as Brett hath done he hath
Sent me word he will be with me in a few days when we Shall
Adjust that matter,
It is the general Opinion of the Gent in the Country
that the great Occasion of sending of so much Trash and under
Tobbo: is by the restraint wee are under from Steming for now all
the ground leaves and under Tobbo: are tyed up and go to market
none is so bad but the Outports Merchts. and the North Brittains
will buy at Some Price or other which wee reckon Computing
through the Country amounts to Several thousand hogsheads and does
very much depress the market for the better Sort of Tobbo: Whereas
if the good were pickt out by Steming it would be as Valueable
as the best Tobbo: wee make. Wee think so much of the Trash of our
Tobbo: going home is no advantage to the King in his Customs

(the following chapter needs rewriting, there needs to be more references to the plot of the chapter early on, its quite apperent I had no idea what would be the plotline when i first wrote the introduction=
But considering the situation on Atlantis right now, with the whole spy issue neither the lieutenant nor Hoglund minded that much to get out of there. Of course it was the Athosians who had found the jumper, so they probably wouldn't be here if the Athosians hadn't felt compelled to leave Atlantis in the first place.
Miller kept joking about it being paid vacation, he usually commanded one of the off-world teams, the intention had been to have Shepard command one and colonel Sumner comand the other but with Sumners death the comand of one had fallen to Miller as the second highest military officer of atlantis, havign seniority on lt.Ford. Despite the vacation jokes the boredom had eventually got to Milelr who had gone to see if the Athosians needed any help, watching a battery charge didn't really take two men anyway. Which was fine by Hoglund, the jumper had crashed down on the edge of a rocky beach. it had probably gone down over the ocean but had been going so fast it had bounced on the surface tension until it impacted the beach. Truth be told Hoglund didn't think he'd get it working again, ten thousand years of decay was probably to much. Then he heard a sound from the jumper, and sat straight up. Or perhaps not, the redundancy of this technology was marvelous. He walked over it and touched the back panel of it. slowly but surely it opened with a groan as of some wild beast. the stench that met him was unbelievable, ten thousand year sof seawater that had stewed inside the machine. Yes true jumpers was waterproof, Zelenka had even suggested they might be able to fly under water, but nothing held tight against the elements for then thousand years. It had held relatively tight though which meant that any seawater that had gotten in had not gotten out. there was probably an entire ecosystem living in this thing. Hoglund stepped away from the hatch again. He needed a new plan, the innards of the jumper needed to be cleaned somewhat if he was going to be able to find how to repair it, but he sure as hell wasn't going to go in there with a cloth and his bare hands. He went through his own gear, and found nothing useful, then he went through the lieutenant's supplies and found nothing. sure plenty of grenades and some c-4 but he wanted to save jumper not blow it up. What he really needed was pressurised water but then again with it nose down in the beach the way it was the water wouldnt flow out of it anyway. moving the jumper was out of the question... or was it, one of the drive pods was shot to hell, and propaby the reason it crashed, the other one wasnt all that bad. it might be made to give one last push in reverse. Hoglund entered the jumper thankign his luck that Zelenka had found the control circuits for the drive pods, Hoglund dug through a half gallon of desposited algae to get to the circuit hatch then coupled his tab up to the right circuit and left the jumper. It was propably not safe to be inside it right now. He set the settings for the curcuit to full, he'd propably burn up all the energy he had fed into it thus far doing this, and there was no guarantee that it would survive pulling itself free. then again if it didn't it was probably in to bad shape for anything but spare parts anyway. he activated the circuit, and was knocked to the ground by spraying mud stones and sediment. Something hit him hard. Not as intended he thought before passing out because of the pain.
"Doctor! Are you all right" a voice asked, Hoglunds head hurt like never before and the voice was like nails on a chalkboard for him. Hoglund sat up, at least that's what he intended instead he got halfway toppled over and threw up. "Doctor? What happened here? It looks like a bomb went down" Lieutenant Miller, Hoglund realised, he finally managed to sit up. He was covered in the very thing he hadn't wanted to clean up himself, and several, far to large for comfort, rocks was scattered in the mud around him, one of them had probably hit him and knocked him out. He looked over to the jumper. it was now resting in the shallow water of the beach. The engine pod he had intended to activate was fine, the other one appeared to have exploded. He had activated a broken engine at full power. the blast crater was actually quite impressive though not as impressive as it would have been if there had been a catastrophic overload.No a safety catch had probably activated and that had blown with all the energy that was loaded in the capacitor at that moment. If there had been a catastrophic overload they would probably have seen the explosion from Atlantis and that is if the Naquadah generator had not been caught in the explosion because then it would have evaporated half the coastal area.
"Don't be the guy who sets of a nuke" he laughed to himself.
"What? Sorry Hoglund but what are you talking about"
"I miscalculated a bit and nearly blew myself... what is the phrase... to kingdom come?"
"You said something about a nuke?"
"The generator" Hoglund said and motioned towards it luckily it was stating a good distance up on dry land "we wouldnt want that to get caught in the blastzone now would we"
"Have you gone crazy?" Miller asked worriedly.
"I think I might have taken a blow to my head"
"Several actually" the lieutenant gave him a compress "Saw a chopper go down in Iraq, some of the guys we pulled out of it still looked better than you, those of them who were lucky that is"
"And the one's that wasn't lucky"
"Dead on impact doctor"
"As I said slight miscalculation, but hey it got the job done"
"yes, and nearly got you killed in the process, I'll radio in for pickup, doctor Becket should have a look at that head"
"No need I'll have this thing up and running in no time then we can fly it back to Atlantis and Becket can give me some asprin." He got on his feet and grabbed the generator and headed for the jumper.
"Doctor!" Miller shouted "You are in no shape of flying even if that thing wasn't an antique!"
Hoglund just ignored him and entered the jumper he puled down the circuit panels and started orientating himself, more than half of them were broken. And that was not accounting any hardware that might be shot after the crash then ten thousand years of decay and followed by the explosion just a few moment ago.
Lieutenant Miller radioed Atlantis.
"Atlantis base this is Miller come in please"
"This is Atlantis base" chief engineer Grodin responded
"We had a malfunction with the jumper we were sent here to fix, Doctor Hoglund took a blow to his head and now he's acting very strange. We could use a lift out of here."
"Ok, Markham is on his way in jumper one" then there was a pause "Doctor Becket is coming along, he says keep Hoglund laying down"
"That could be a problem, he is intent on repairing the old jumper and flying it home"
"That's not an option lad" Becket cut in "His strange behaviour could be a sign of cerebral swelling or even bleeding, if that's the case he's in big trouble and moving around is just going to make that worse, as for flying after a blunt force trauma, no bloody way"
"I'll deal with him, just get here" Miller said and walked up to the jumper, at lest he tried, he walked straight into some kind of forcefield, it knocked him of his feet. "What the hell" he muttered as he stood.
"Sorry lieutenant but I cant let you stop me" Hoglund said from inside, he looked at a optic circuit. "Inertial dampeners? I can do without those"
"Doctor you really need to lay down, you could..."
"I have a radio to you know, I heard Becket. They underestimate me you know, by far" he switched a few other circuits.
"It doesn't matter how good you are at this stuff, you can't fly a jumper with one drivepod!"
"Please SG members have done way worse stuff"
Lieutenant Miller gave up he walked away and opened up the radio frequency again.
"This is Miller what is your ETA" he heard Hoglund scoff something about military jargon.
"We're two minutes out" Markham responded. "We can see the smoke from the explosion"
"Good, Atlantis base, Hoglund has activated the jumpers shield how do I shut it off"
"This is Grodin speaking, it can be turned of remotely by a control found in all jumpers, the inbound jumper will have those and can shut the forcefield down"
"Let's hope we have that long" Miller answered.
Hoglund felt like an observer in his own body, he could think but when he tried to transfer his thoughts and actions to his body they came out wrong. He knew there was several issues that were important here, one was the lack of a body of the person who crashed this in the first place. The second was a flashing light on the hud saying the location of the jumper was several hundred miles from where it had supposedly crashed. He just couldn't get to what it meant. He had managed to get stabilisers and a drive pod operational by sacrificing inertial dampeners cloaking weapons and all secondary systems. Somewhere he remembered shutting the dampeners of was a very bad idea. He just couldn't process it properly. Despite what Becket had said he knew it wasnt he trauma, he had been like this when he had decided to try and fly the jumper free in the first place.
He saw a second jumper come into view, he moved the control circuit from the shield to the stabilisers and activated his remaning drive pod, the pod coughed a few times and then fired up, and the jumper lifted of the ground, now he just had to find Atlantis, unfortunately navigation was one of those systems that he had salvaged to get the jumper running.
Just as jumper one landed the other jumper took of, not fast not gracefully, more like if someone had placed a very old steam engine on wings and made it fly. Jumper one opened it's hatch long enough for Miller to get on board before taking of after the other jumper.
"Markham! Bring us up alongside him!" Miller ordered Markham as soon as they took of.
"yes sir" Markham responded, then hesitated "There's no way for us to get aboard that jumper sir"
"Just do it sergeant, we'll figure something out" Miller said.
"No problem, sir" Markham said and followed the other jumper.
"Lieutenant, you mind telling me how he got injured in the first place" Becket asked.
"He tried firing up a broken engine pod, weird too he was the one who told me it would blow if we tried doing that"
"That doesn't sound like a mistake Hoglund would normally do, could he have been in an altered mental state already then?"
"It's possible, but if not cranial bleeding then what? People don't just go insane for no reason doctor"
"Can't say for certain until I get him under a scanner lieutenant" Miller turned back to Markham.
"Where is he going?" he asked him.
"can't say for sure sir, he keeps drifting to one side now that could be intentional but also a result of him flying on one engine" Markham paused "How is he even doing that? Shouldnt the jumper go into a spin?"
"The ancient systems are probably to some degree able to compensate for that" the jumper in front of them suddenly made a massive turn to the other side. and once again was steering towards Altantis. Miller pushed the radio button.
"This is Miller, I'm aboard the jumper but Doctor Hogludn managed to get his jumper in the air before we could get to him, he's heading towards Atlantis Atlantis base please advice"
"This is Bates sir, major Shepard is currently offworld,You may have to consider shooting him down"
"I would rather not Sergeant, he has a naquadah generator on board, the resulting explosion would take us down with him."
"But should he crash into Atlantis with that the resulting explosion might sink the city" Grodin cut in.
"I am aware of that doctor, but I need alternatives"
"I'll see what I can do"
Peter Grodin had once again assembled the Atlantis science team as well as his own technicians in one of the Atlantis conference rooms.
"We have a highly unstable jumper carrying a small nuclear payload heading towards the city, we have about half an hour to find a solution or the pursuing jumper will be forced to shoot it down"
"Less than half an hour actually" kavanagh pointed out "Destoyign the jumper will cause the generator to explode and if the explosion is close enough to the city it wont atter if it blows up on the landign pad or gets shot down by the other jumper."
"Thank you doctor Kavanagh" Groding said witha strained voice "Now someone who has an actual useful suggestion?"
"We could attempt to raise the shield momentarily" Simpson pointed out.
"How would that help us?" Johnsson replied
"It would mean we could blow the jumper up closer to the city without harm but there's no guarantee we could actually raise the shield even for an instant" kavanagh said.
"I meant that we might be able to prevent Hoglund's jumper frome ntering the city" Simpson argued.
"No way we have enough power for that, now one short burst of energy..."
"We could power up the drone chair and shoot it down ourselves"
"...No power..."
Grodin sat down beside Zalenka.
"I hate to admit it but we need Rodney on this"
"When he gets back from offoworld it will be to late" Zelenka responded.
"He might be able to get the chair to work though, not that I like the idea of shooting Hoglund down"
"If we had the chair we might be able to force the jumper on autopilot actually, but we don't so it doesn't matter really" Zelenkka said, looking at the scientists shouting at each other in the middle of the room. Grodin sat up straight, he had an idea.
"Could it be done from another jumper?"
"A jumper has a lot less range than the control chair, even if we could get them to work like that by the time we got in range it's be to late"
"There's a jumper within range right now" Grodin pointed out.
"That could work, they do have two pilots with the ATA gene on board"
"I meant just activate the autopilot"
"the autopilot is designed to fly a fully functional jumper and we can't be certain Hoglund havent already salvaged it in order to restore flying condition, but MiIller is a pilot he could land it remotely"
"That's assuming we can get the connection to last that long"
"Doesn't have to be that long, he dont need to fly it just the landing, but it's assuming they can adapt the neural feed to accept two inputs at once"
"We could design the system in one of our jumpers here and send it to them"
"I'll go start on the jumpers" Zelenka said standing up.
"I'll go boot up the neural link program from the database" Grodin said and they both hurried away leaving the other scientists to their debate.
Twenty minutes later the radio in the jumper buzzed to life.
"Jumper one we think we have a solution" Grodin's voice said.
"This is jumper one, we're listening"
"Ok Miller we'll transmit a program that will allow someone to temporarily control the other jumper from the copilots chair, we recommend you do it considering the state of the other jumper and that you have actual pilot training."
"Transmiot the program" a light lit on the dashboard "Ok i think we got it, what do we do?"
"Just open it it's plug and play, it's possible that the strain might deactivate your jumper entirely, if that happens someone needs to reinitialize it at the rear circuit hatch."
"You know I really don't need a task to make me feel needed here" Beckett noted nervously
"It is important Beckett" Grodin pointed out, "It's just sheer luck that there are three of you with the gene in one jumper at once"
"Oh I do feel really lucky" Beckett began but Miller made a gesture for him to be quiet.
"is there anything else we need to know?" he asked
"The circuits for this kind of thing are different from most others so Hoglund shouldn't have touched them but after ten thousand years they might be really bad anyway. There's no telling how long the connection will hold, don't activate it until the last second."
"Thank you Atlantis base, jumper one out"
They were quickly approaching Atlantis, the jumper right infornt of them was visibly straiend from flying on one drivepod for so long and also without amny other systems.
"Let's hope he even makes it as far as the city" Miller commented, none of the others responded, they wer elal following the path of the damaged jumper with terror, their haerts skipping a beat every time it made a large cringe.
"he should have activated the bay doors by now" Markham commented.
"If that function still works" Miller anwered him "Open the bay doors" he order him, then he sat in the co pilots chair. He touched the file Atlantis had sent to him and then placed his hand on the neural interface. At first nothign happened and he got a sinking feeling in his gut then, a small window opened on the HUD showing what was in front of the second jumper. He lfet it respond or rather try to respond to his commands. It reacted slowly as if unsure how to react to his inputs, but slowly it began slowing down as he willed it to. he tried to make it stand still in the air to hoer and descend like they were supposed to be every time he got it close it made a sudden movement. At first he found it very annoying then he realised that the other jumper could not hover on one drive pod at least not without inertial dampeners. He would have to fly it slowly in a circle to land it. Slowly but surely he took it downwards towards the floor, ten meters left, five meters left then at two meters left he felt as if someting snapped and the hud window died. At the same time all the lights in the jumper died.
"Bloody hell" Becket shouted from the back and threw himself at the rear circuit console, at first nothing happened and they started to fall, then with a whine the jumper rebooted and stopped the motion. while all this happened Millers eyes were fixed at the other jumper as it's last engine pod died and it crashed into the ground below it. Fortunately it appeared that the generator had not been damaged because nothing else happened. Markham landed their jumper and they met several technicians trying to crowbar the rear hatch of the damaged jumper open as soon as they got out of their own. Grodin and Zalenka was with them.
"Nice flying lieutenant" Grodin greeted him.
"Your solution didn't last long enough for a fully controlled landing, how come it didn't blow?"
"The inertial dampeners seems to have activated just as you lost control of it, perhaps Hoglund managed to get his act together again, or it was some fluke in the programming" Grodin responded
"I'm a little concerned he didn't open the bay doors, was the controls simply broken or was he unable to do so for another reason." Zalenka said
"I can't say until I get to him but at least with the dampeners on there's some chance he survived the last crash" Becket responded.
"Some chance?" Grodin said horrified.
"Well if he was severely injured before flying that thing he didn't make it much better by such a bumpy ride and a crash at the end."
With a whine the rear hatch gave up and the technicians pulled it open.
"Maybe we should go first doctor there could be a leaky generator in there" Grodin said to becket.
"There could also be a dying man in there" becket responded and waved the medical team to follow him as he entered.
Hoglund was unconcious on the in one of the pilots chairs. Becket gave hima quick goign over.
"No spinal damage he should be safe to move" he observed, then felt on his head "Doesnt appear to be any severe head damage either, he picked up a flashlight from his pocked and opened Hogludn eye, and lit into it. I'd say poisoned or in severe allergic chock, we need to get him down to the infirmary. he motioned the medical teams to lift him onto a trolley then turned to Miller. "Did he eat anything you found on the mainland?"
"He found some berries we put in our breakfast oatmeal, he said he knew what they were he used to pick them at home when he was a kid"
"We're in another bloody galaxy there are no plants that are the same here as on earth, don't eat anything that haven't been cleared by the botany department!"
"But if they were poison why am I fine?"
"Some people react stronger than others to these things some not at all" he hurried after his team.
Many many hours later Hoglund awoke in a bed in the infirmary. What the hell hapened? He aksed, or well he tried to ask instead he just made a groan. But he heard someone move in the vaccinity.
"Doctor Becket! doctor Hoglund is awake".
"Thank god for that" He heard Becket respond and then the doctor was leaning over him. "How are you felling Felix?" He asked.
"Water... please..." he managed to get out. Someone held a glass to his mouth and he drank. he then settled back, "What happened?" he asked.
"you had a severe concussion and few broken ribs, but the large problem was the reaction to those berries you ate"
"Berries? Why do I have a concussion?"
"Memory loss is common after trauma, or the poison might have something to do with it"
"You ate some strange berries in the mainland, almost blew up a jumper then tried to fly a broken jumper carrying a naquadah genrator back to Atlantis."
"So I did something stupid and nearly got everyone on atlantis killed" Hoglund said with a ironic smile, his head hurt when he did ti though so he let it fade "I'm so going to get fired"
"No one is blaming you son, you're not the first person to do something stupid on their first time off-world"
"I wasn't of world, just the mainland"
"Anything that isn't earth is off-world" Beckett pointed out "Now the interesting part is that the concussion likely saved your life, it made you vomit, which reduced the amount of poison that you body actually managed to take in."
"Jay for blunt force trauma" Hoglund said then felt himself drft away.
he awoke later, feeling much better, he heard voices in the distance so he sat up.
"You can't volounteer someone else major" he heard Becket argue some distance away.
"I knew you would want to help"
"It's not about that!"
Hoglund opened his eyes, Becket and Major Shepard was standing a dozen meters away arguing about something.
"Morning Carson, Morning Major" he said sitting up. they both turned towards him surprised.
"You do relaise it's almost midday right?" Shepard answered him.
"Not where I have been I promise you that" Hoglund said with a weak smile, he had started to get his memory back.
"You know I got to try some of those berries you found" Shepard responded.
"I am going to throw something at you major" Hoglund promised.
" you look more like you're goign to throw up on me, you had us worried there fora while doctor"
"A while?" How long was I out"
"You've been drifting in and out of it for a week" Beckett told him.
"Paid vaccation" Hoglund smiled "Did I miss anything fun?"
"We captured a wraith, got him down in a holding cell"
"yeah sure"
"Actually they did, it's kind of a long story"
"Which actually reminds me, you fund that ancient pacification device right? Jolt a person when it feels anger or hostility"
"It registers certain body chemicals and administers a non lethal chock, the ancients used it on violent criminals instead of prison, that way they could rehabilitate by conditioning away unwanted behaviour instead of incarcerating" Hoglund said.
"Would it work on a wraith" Shepard asked
"No" Hoglund responded shaking his head.
"no?" Sherpard looked suprised nearly offended "Just no?"
"The wraith have very diffrent body chemicals from us" Beckett clarified.
"What if you modify it?" Shepard tried, Hoglund buried his head in his hands, military people! he thought.
"It's not that simple!" He expased.
"Why not?"
"Because the wraith is by far closer to the Iratus bug than it is to a human, it has none of the body chemicals we do and they're not even close enough that they have corresponding body chemicals" Beckett explained again.
"See this is why I need you to work with the Hoffans, you know these things"
"Ok but next time ask me before you tell Elizabeth that I'll do it"
Hoglund leaned back again, he was tired and he had a feeling that whatever this was about it would make itself known to him soon enough. He had no idea what an understatement that was.

A disturbing trend that shows DHS involvement in skirting the law.
Surely you've seen the news by now (it is all over the internet) about the DHS bus in California carrying Somalis and other Africans apprehended at our southern border and now asking for asylum.
The story, that began as a video clip making the rounds of social media is fleshed out furtherhere at World Net Daily. Luckily broadcaster Anita Fuentes of 'Open your eyes people,'was there to ask questions of the driver and to film the bus.
Go to World Net Daily for the full story and more about Somalis and asylum in the US.
For new readers, once an alien is granted asylum they may receive all of the social service benefits that a normal refugee gets, and they may get care from one of the federal resettlement contractors.
Asha Omar (19) granted asylum in El Paso, Texas in 2010, tells the improbable tale that…

In Habla's Day of the Dead program you will study Spanish by learning about the cultural traditions, artwork, essays, and literature that examine Mexico's spiritual and playful relationship with death. You will see how the motif of the "calavera" (skull) is an important theme that runs through the visual art of Mexico, including in the work of muralist Diego Rivera, the engraver José Guadalupe Posada, and photographer Graciela Iturbide. We will examine and discuss the works of these and many more Mexican artists, authors, and musicians. This program will often move beyond the spaces of Habla into the city of Mérida where we will visit the Museum of Popular Art, other cultural centers, or view and discuss the murals in the Centro.
This program coincides with the Day of the Dead in Merida, Mexico, so we will see how the Day of the Dead is celebrated in Mayan culture. Together we'll visit the altars that the people of Merida create outside their homes and in the main plazas. At night we will go see a Day of the Dead parade and watch traditional dance performances in neighborhoods around the city.
For program dates, please download the schedule here
Dates of local events for Day of the Dead change every year. Please be sure to check with us before you book your trip.Tuesday: Art Workshop – Building Altars for the Day of the Dead, Part I
In addition to El Corredor de Las Animas we will also explore Día de Los Muertos altars that are set up every year in the main square, the Plaza Grande.
Please note that the dates and times for these events vary depending on the schedule for the city.
You can read more about previous year's El Corredor de Las Animas on the Yucatan Living website here.
Specific days and hours of programs are subject to change depending on the schedule of events in the city.

During her visit, Mrs. May tweeted her praise for adi's "wonderful apprentices" and the opportunities delivered by the firm's "quality apprenticeships". The Group has made the commitment of signing up to the 5% club, which states that it aims to employ 5% of its total workforce as apprentices by 2020.
CEO Alan Lusty explained why apprenticeships are so important to him and adi: "Giving youngsters the skills they need for the world of work is vital, particularly at a time of such rapid technological change. And I'm a walking example of why. Were it not for an apprenticeship, this company and the jobs it has created wouldn't exist.
"I failed my 11 plus but was lucky enough to get on an Instrumentation and Electrical apprenticeship that really opened my eyes. It not only gave me some very important skills but it gave me the confidence and belief that my destiny was in my own hands.
"That, in turn, allowed me to start this firm back in 1990 and build it from the ground up into what we are today. The discipline and resilience I learned all those years ago played a huge part in that, so I've always felt strongly about nurturing the skills of those who come after me."
Group strategic account director, James Sopwith, was pleased the firm's skills initiatives were endorsed by the government and said: "To show both the Prime Minister and the Chancellor around our HQ is a massive plus and validates all the hard work of our entire team, so it's a great boost for our already-high morale.
"We like to think we're pioneers, when it comes to skills development, so it's wonderful to have our model held up as an exemplar by the government and to help, in some small way, shape the policy agenda. We also welcome the Chancellor's conference comments and the commitments he's made in support of apprenticeships like ours.
"But it's not only the responsibility of government. Businesses have a real role to play in inspiring young people and giving them the skills they need to succeed. To that end, our Pre-Apprenticeship programme has proof of concept and, if other companies copy what we have created, we can help bring about a sea change, not just in the engineering sphere but in a number of key sectors.
"I can tell you, from personal experience, that inspiring young people as early as possible really works. So, I'd urge any businesses looking to make a difference to get in touch. We'd be very happy to pass on our concept and our knowledge of its delivery at zero cost."

The first item you need to understand is the school's accreditation. This is necessary because you want to make sure you will be obtaining the very best education . Every sonography technician training program really should be accredited by the CAAHEP or a comparable accrediting organization in your area.
The next thing you should consider concerning your ultrasound technician training program is its focus. A number of schools place their focus on the best ways to work in a medical environment, while others focus more on studying the actual technologies of sonography.
Clinical Training
Another important item you need to consider is the clinical training experience. This is your real training , and this is where you are going to actually be instructed how to use current ultrasound technology. Some academic institutions dedicate a lot more time on your clinical training than others. If it turns out your training program is not spending a lot of time with practical teaching, you may want to inquire the reason why. Generally in most States you must have a minimum quantity of clinical hours documented prior to being eligible to test for licensing.
Class Size
Something else you should consider is your class size. The enrollment in your class can vary greatly from school to school . You should find out how big the classes are at the campus you may be going to as this can provide you with a good idea of the amount of one-on-one teaching you should expect.
Graduation Rate
The last detail you ought to carefully consider before buying an ultrasound technician training program is the success rate of the school you're considering. It is important to find out the number of people that graduate from the training program, what their comments were, and exactly how many of them have gone on to become ultrasound techs.
Ready to Decide ?
Reviewing these five steps before you choose an ultrasound technician school is going to make your final decision a lot easier and make it easier to become the best sonographer you can possibly be. As soon as your choice is made its the time to plan for the process that lies ahead, just what should you expect to accomplish during your sonography training?
Ultrasound Technician Training Expectations
Ultrasound technician training consists of training students the right way to find and identify an array of health conditions through sound wave technology to capture images of bodily organs and human tissue. There are various accredited organizations which offer this sort of instruction, which involves clinical, laboratory and classroom instruction.
Students spend the majority of their time in school acquiring the skills necessary to operate and take care of ultrasound machinery . This enables them to produce medical images by making use of ultrasound procedures. In most cases, employers want technicians to have received training from accredited schools in addition to having taken and passed the test set by the ARDMS (American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers).
Those employed in this field will have to be proficient in human anatomy, medical jargon and also patient evaluation. Superior communication skills are generally preferred so that you can reduce any fears or nervousness a patient may have as they go through technical procedures. An eye for high quality images in addition to competence in choosing and examining images are also usually required.
Formal Education
Formal training will be gained by enrolling in a program offered by diagnostic sonography training programs, universities and colleges. The majority of hopeful ultrasound technicians opt to register for 2-year associate's degree programs, although bachelor programs are also available. Candidates have got to possess a high school diploma with coursework having been completed in math, standard sciences and health.
Associate of Science in Ultrasound Technology
An Associate of Science in Ultrasound Technology program specializes in instructing students how to use medical imaging devices, so that they can recognize different medical conditions as well as the treatment plans which should be used . This specific diagnostic medical sonography training degree requires lots of time spent in area health-care facilities, practical training in classroom labs and in-class lectures . Generally , the subject areas of patient treatment techniques, medical ethics, anatomy, common physics and acoustic physics, are taught. Supplementary courses in abdominal scanning, vascular technology and obstetrics , are often also available.
Bachelor of Science in Diagnostic Ultrasound Technology
Normally, this option will take 4 to 5 years to complete, and provides an in-depth examination of a variety of ultrasound specialties which are needed for graduates to be employed as researchers, administrators or managers. Practical experience in gynecological, obstetrics and abdominal ultrasound procedures is obtained through clinical internships and classroom instruction. With a B.S. degree you will be in the upper half of all sonographers in terms of education and according to the United States Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median salary for Diagnostic Medical Sonographers is over $65,000.
Job Experience
Although the completion of an ultrasound technician training program is sufficient to get entry-level positions in the field, 5 years of ultrasound experience is necessary for higher salaried jobs that come with further responsibility, such as administration and management careers.
Certification & Licensing
Ultrasound Technicians do not need to be certified ; of course, the overwhelming majority of companies would rather hire techs that possess certificates from a certifying organization, such as the ARMDS. The reason is that certification provides evidence that an individual has the skills and know-how required to work effectively and productively.
Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer
Students looking to obtain a RDMS certificate will need to pass the certifying test set by the ARDMS . When the test is successfully completed, a certain number of units in continuing education must be completed, so that you can maintain your certification. This form of ultrasound technician training can cover a number of different specialties, including abdominal, nervous system or breast imaging.

To write music for a play or narrative film is a relatively clear-cut kind of composing: You have certain cracks to fill in and moods to set, and when it doesn't work the director says so and you do it over. What the composers and film makers at the Non-Sequitur Festival attempted—brought together by curators Bradley Eros and Brian Frye—was a more delicate balancing act, a collaboration between theoretically equal components, audio and visual. Only theoretically equal, however, for our culture is heavily visually oriented. One would think that would mean that visuals would always dominate, but actually music's very invisibility offers the opportunity for the composer to exert a powerful unconscious influence.
For example, in a film-with-live-music collaboration called 1933, Elaine Kaplinsky's gorgeously sad synthesizer melodies over slow cello pizzicato chords utterly shaped our perception of Brian Frye's static images of Depression-era gangsters. It hardly mattered what the pictures were: With that music, any silent image from babies to massacres was going to come off as tragic, poignant, all too human. The Incredible Shrinking Man, accompanied on piano by Jed Distler, was quite the opposite: The film (about a man who shrinks after a mysterious dose of radiation) was so absurdistly silly, and so linear, that the music went unnoticed; I don't remember it.
The '70s spawned an ongoing collaborative movement to try to subvert the imbalance between audio and visual, to fuse different media by structuring them so analogously that they blend in the imagination. Several works here tried that strategy, including "Scraatch & Screetch": Tom Chiu's squeaks on a fiddle exactly matched Bruce McClure's scratches whirling by on a piece of film, but the attempt at similarity only exaggerated the disparity. More successful was 3 Operations of Optics, in which slowly transforming natural images by Bradley Eros seemed contrapuntally mimicked in their behavior by Andrea Parkins's pulsating electronic tones. Likewise Circumscriptions by filmmaker Lisa DiLillo and composer Douglas Geers; the various images were unified through the motif of the pupil of an eye, just as the shimmering electronic textures were held together by recurring ostinatos.
Sometimes the music could drown out the film, as in Parched Lips/Lusted Coal; Molly Thompson's gripping performance of an odd rock song relegated Stom Sogo's static images of kayaks and swans to an ambient accompaniment. At other times, the music seemed out in left field. Kenji Bunch and Brian McWhorter showed found film footage of a '50s-era man dressed in an apron and making eggnog, while playing a desultory modal improv on viola, trumpet, and electronics that didn't seem to have anything to do with anything.
But in the two works that stood out as really special, it was because the film, though foregrounded, wouldn't have meant anything without the music. One was (Parenthesis) by David First and Brian Frye. The film—a girl in a scarf slowly changing expressions from fear to pleasure to sadness—would have been unwatchably meaningless except that First's glowingly prickly drones seemed to be coming from inside her head and imparting some inscrutable motivation to every twinge. The other was Marietta's Lied by filmmaker Lewis Klahr, who wove animated images of people and objects around a soprano aria from Korngold's opera Die Tote Stadt. The images seemed to meander pointlessly until you gradually realized that they were a kind of visual love poem to Korngold's sentimental aria, which gradually crept under your skin and made you love it, too.
It was self-indulgent, on this three-hour, intermissionless, audience-squeezed-in-like-sardines concert for Composers Collaborative director Jed Distler to add in his own filmless string quartet, a set of variations on the Mister Softee Ice Cream jingle that pinned my cutesiness meter. For the record, though, the work's final fugue did audibly bring together the jingle itself, the theme song from the Mr. Ed TV show, and bits of Beethoven's Grosse Fugue. Thank goodness someone finally did it, and let's hope no one ever thinks of it again. More reassuring was to see a younger generation of composers—Thompson, Geers, Chiu—becoming active in Manhattan's new-music scene, at last providing an answer to all the forties-types like me who sit around grousing about how there aren't any young composers coming up.

Brown was a consensus three-star recruit according to the major recruiting sites. The Carbondale, Illinois native has appeared in three games. He averaged seven minutes per game and has three points and five assists for the season. Oregon has 13 players on the roster. And if you're scoring at home, six players have transferred since Altman took over in June 2010. The others include: Martin Seiferth, Teondre Williams, Malcolm Armstead and Jamil Wilson. Michael Dunigan left the team last year before Altman was hired. WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON LINKS: — Washington's Terrence Ross is making strides to becoming an all-around player. — Rebounding was a concern before the season, but it hasn't been an issue for the Huskies. — Oregon State's Jared Cunningham is becoming a marked man. — Here's a nice capsule on the Beavers early-season success. —- Jeff Eisenberg at Rivals.com spoke to a coach who played UCLA and breaks down the Bruins' struggles.

At the end of last year, the United Nations adopted the "Paris Agreement" to curb global greenhouse gas emissions, urging each nation to do its part to curb climate change.
Michael Sivak and Brandon Schoettle of the Transportation Research Institute at the University of Michigan recently published a paper detailing ways in which every single American can contribute to cutting back on emissions.
Unsurprisingly, many of those ways involved the ways in which we get around.
According to the EPA, transportation accounts for 27% of all American emissions, which is why it has the largest potential when it comes to cutting.
Here are some of the best ways to start.
Flying is a notoriously dirty activity, which is why trying to find alternative methods of transport whenever possible can save a lot of gas.
The latest generation of fuel-efficient jet engines — which can cut fuel consumption by 15-30% — are not yet in widespread use, and because passengers can't always choose to fly on newer, cleaner planes, they don't really have many "greener" options.
But for now, flying on budget airlines that squeeze more seats into each aircraft and trying to fly non-stop whenever possible are some of the best ways flyers can limit emissions. Also, selecting airlines known to operate more cleanly can help. In 2010, the three cleanest airlines were found to be Alaskan, Spirit, and Hawaiian.
Americans already walk significantly less than other countries, one study found.
Along with some serious health advantages, leaving the car in the garage can make a big impact: cutting the amount we drive by 10% would eliminate 1.6% of national emissions.
So hit the sidewalk. Or try two wheels instead of four.
Hanging onto a car for just a few more years can also have a significant effect on emissions.
The average lifespan of an American light-duty vehicle is 11.5 years. The energy required to produce a car has been calculated to be the equivalent of 863 gallons of gasoline, or about 14% of the gasoline the average vehicle consumes over its lifetime.
Keeping a car for longer saves a significant amount of oil, as is the case with cell phones and most other consumer products, Sivak and Schoettle found.
An EPA study found that 29% of American emissions comes from industry — and the immense operations required to make cars are a large contributor to that number.
Light-duty vehicles (the kind most of us drive every day) account for 16.2% of all transportation-related emissions. Which means our cars are one of the largest ways in which individuals can help cut emissions.
Changing the way in which we drive is an excellent way to start.
For example: slowing down. While certain cars are most efficient at different speeds, the car tested by Sivak and others was at its best at 61 mph. At 87 mph, fuel economy was reduced by 34%. Considering how often people speed, Sivak and Schoettle concluded that drivers can reduce their individual fuel consumption by about 5%, just by reducing high-speed driving.
Cutting out aggressive driving — frequent hard accelerations and braking — can also have about the same effect on emissions.
Sounds like a no-brainer, but how much would it actually help?
The answer: a lot. In fact, the study found that this is far and away the best way average citizens can help cut emissions.
If the average fuel economy of every American vehicle were to rise from its current level of 21.4 mpg to 31 mpg, it would cut the entire load of American carbon emissions by a very significant 5%. That's without doing anything else.
If that average were to rise to 56 mpg (just above the current 54.6 mpg standard set by President Obama for 2025) the total cut would be 10%.
In the meantime, changing tires is one of the best ways to make existing vehicles more efficient: buying tires with 30% less rolling resistance can reduce consumption by about 5%.
