Ukrainian Delegation Studies Miller School's STD/HIV Prevention Program
A delegation of Ukrainian professionals recently learned how a University of Miami Miller School of Medicine program is helping to reduce the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and HIV infections in Miami-Dade County.
"We discussed our Promote 2 Prevent (P2P) program, as well as other issues affecting adolescents in the Ukraine," said Alex Moreno, M.P.H., Clinical Program Manager of Adolescent HIV Counseling and Testing Service, and P2P, a project of the Division of Adolescent Medicine at the Mailman Center for Child Development. "The Ukrainian delegation included a documentary television producer and an administrator who were also interested in health-related legal issues, such as rights of transgender youth and patient confidentiality."
Promote 2 Prevent — a collaborative program acting as a registered State of Florida Health Department testing site — provides free STD/HIV screening to adolescents and young adults age 13 through 24. Its staff works closely with Miami-Dade County Public Schools, the Foster Care System and the Department of Juvenile Justice.
This was the second delegation from Ukraine to learn about Promote 2 Prevent. In October 2014, Moreno escorted representatives from a group called the All-Ukrainian Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS to visits with community public health partners.
On the May 19 visit, Moreno connected the delegates with UM's Children and Youth Law Clinic. Directors Bernard Perlmutter and Kele Marcia Stewart, joined by Clinical Instructor and Practitioner-in-Residence Robert Latham, led a lively discussion on the legal rights of LGBT and foster youth, a vulnerable population both here and in Ukraine.
"The Ukrainians gained valuable information about HIV prevention, low-cost legal services and other ways to support their country's LGBT population," said Annette G. Alvarez, Executive Director of Global Ties Miami, a non-profit that promotes professional and cultural exchanges between international visitors and South Florida communities, which hosted the visit.
"We connect international leaders with their counterparts in South Florida to discuss a wide range of topics," said Alvarez.

Paradise Valley Snowmobile Association
The local snowmobile club has been a part of the region almost as long as Dawson Creek has and has hundreds of miles of trails. The trail system links the towns of Dawson Creek, Pouce Coupe, Tumbler Ridge, Grande Prairie, Beaverlodge, Hythe, and Chetwynd together. Please check local trail conditions and distances before heading out. Some of the trails are very difficult riding in low snow conditions. There are a few trails that are very long and require extra fuel to be carried. Like Polaris' logo says "The Way Out," a way to get out and enjoy life as it should be. Away from the hustle and bustle, away from work, away from everything else. Do you really need a reason to ride?
BE SAFE & HAVE FUN, and remember "shiny side up." :)

My best friend, B, just had her first baby. A beautiful little girl with a shock of dark hair weighing in at a nice seven pounds plus. It's very exciting. Well, it's exciting for me – as a young woman of certain breeding age that is surrounded by friends and colleagues having babies left, right, and centre. Literally.
What does B having a baby mean? Presents! Off I toddled to Mothercare in search of that perfect gift. Boy was I disappointed. Plastic, plastic, plastic. I swear practically everything in that shop was covered in plastic or had some sort of plastic accoutrement attached to it. Why would I want to surround a delicate newborn child with this nasty and often toxic substance?
It's no secret in my household that, to Bron's increasing terror, I'm getting a bit broody. And it makes me wonder, what on earth am I going to do when/if I am lucky enough to have a baby one day? Can you get baby bottles that aren't plastic? What did mothers used to do? Just breastfeed until the babies were weaned? What about babies that had trouble breastfeeding? Did they just have to struggle on without? Maybe these questions are terribly naïve, I don't know. Maybe I'll have to research the child rearing methods of South American rainforest tribes, find out how they do it. I don't think I'll suggest this to B, though – after a 60 hour labour she might just keel over in shock.
Meanwhile, thank goodness for the local businesses that survive in my local town. There are two wonderful children's shops full of a more traditional style of toy and mother's goodies, Laurie's Toybox and Mums and Little Ones. After considerable deliberation I chose a beautiful, soft rabbit-come-snuggle-blanket for baby E, made by Moulin Roty. No plastic labels, no plastic packaging, just a lovely chunky cardboard presentation box. I hope both B and E like it; I quite fancy one for myself.

ARS Tasmania Newsletter – August 2018
...When at last I came home from hospital I eagerly looked at the garden and found that winter was here. There are two plants of Daphne bholua with their sweetly scented flowers open. One plant is in full sun and has quite a few yellow leaves. Ken says it should be in more shade but it does not stop it flowering. We have Daphne 'Perfume Princess' in the front garden. It is a hybrid of D.odora rubra and D.bholua and has been in flower for several weeks.
There is a plant of an interesting shrub from South Africa in the front garden. It is Adenandra uniflora, a small shrub with white flowers the size of a ten cent coin. It is sometimes call "China Flower" due to the brilliant shining surface of the petals. There is a thin red line on the petals and the reverse is flushed pink. Correa reflexa 'Annabel' is covered in delightful pink reflexed blooms. It grows well in a rather dry spot not far from a large Eucalypt.
There are a few early flowers on Tecophila cyanocrocus. The intense deep blue flowers contrast brilliantly with the bright yellow Eranthis hyemalis which are beside them. Along the edge of the drive is a plant of Erica glauca elegans. An interesting plant from South Africa known as "Petticoat Erica" after the shape of the pink and white flowers. It is in rather a dry spot and has survived there for a few years.

The day when America's athletes can play gay is drawing closer
Giving Gay Rights a Sporting Chance
Before New York's momentous legalization of marriage equality this summer, former New York Giants player David Tyree made a video with the National Organization for Marriage. "It's a strong word," said the wide receiver, but gay marriage is the beginning of America's slide toward "anarchy."
But his ominous warning may be becoming more of an exception than the rule in American locker rooms. Consider the emerging critical mass of athletes publicly supporting marriage equality and challenging homophobia: Baltimore Ravens linebacker Brendan Ayanbadejo and New York Rangers forward Sean Avery have made advocacy videos in Maryland and New York, respectively. Grant Hill teamed up with fellow Phoenix Suns basketball player Jared Dudley to film a "Think B4 You Speak" anti-homophobic language video in April. And several Major League Baseball teams, including the Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs and World Series champion San Francisco Giants, have shot videos for Dan Savage's "It Gets Better" anti-bullying campaign.
Taken together, it's a stunning amount of support from a sports culture that has historically been mired in homophobia.

The Bodhisattva's Brain: Buddhism Naturalized
Sam Harris: http://www.samharris.org
Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Sam-Harris/22457171014
"Buddhist doctrines about meditation, compassion, and well-being have begun to greatly enrich the scientific study of the human mind–but we have long needed a careful analysis of the philosophical merits of these ideas. In The Bodhisattva's Brain, Flanagan has delivered it in fine style. This is an unusually wise and useful book."
— Sam Harris, author of the New York Times best sellers, The Moral Landscape, Letter to a Christian Nation, and The End of Faith
"What has Buddhism to teach us about human flourishing? What has neuroscience to teach us both about human flourishing and about the claims of Buddhism? Owen Flanagan's adventurous and intriguing pursuit of answers to these questions is matched by the impressive ingenuity of his attempts to accommodate those answers to the commitments of scientific naturalism."
— Alasdair MacIntyre, author of After Virtue and Whose Justice? Which Rationality?
"In this masterpiece of insight and clarity, Flanagan takes us on a profound but still personal journey, as he contrasts philosophies of life held by Westerners and those held by Buddhists. Ever true to the path that logic carves, shrewdly sensitive to the human search for happiness, and with a unique accumulation of knowledge, Flanagan has given us something very new: comparative neurophilosophy."
— Patricia S. Churchland, Professor of Philosophy, University of California, San Diego
War on Women: Anti-Choice Movement Resorting to Shameless Tricks to Shutter Abortion Clinics
Despite lawsuits and activism, women's health clinics are shutting their doors, thanks to "regulations" coming, in one case, from secret origins.
In Arizona, three clinics have stopped providing abortions thanks to a new law that makes it illegal for nurse practitioners to perform medical abortions.
In Kansas, a family planning clinic is scheduled to close thanks to government pulling funding, while the courts continue to battle out a set of new restrictions that just happen to make it impossible for several abortion clinics in the state to operate at all.
And in Virginia, Gov. Bob McDonnell has taken a page from Kansas' book and is issuing some of the most drastic abortion restrictions seen since Roe, targeting clinics that provide first-trimester abortions with regulations that will effectively force them to shut their doors.
These "bogus safety restrictions" are the newest front in the war on women. At the same time, older battles from this year are resulting in clear-as-day effects already: invasive sonogram laws in Texas, parental consent laws in Nevada, and the constant pulling of funding from family planning.
GOP Field Offers the Ultimate Faith-Based Initiative
By Jon Perr
Americans can be forgiven for assuming Michele Bachmann was deadly serious when she repeatedly joked this weekend that God was using an earthquake and hurricane to send a divine message to restrain federal spending. After all, Bachmann has not only proclaimed time and again that the Almighty called her to seek higher office; in 2009, she joined an evangelical "prayercast" asking for divine intervention to halt health care reform. As it turns out, she has plenty of company among the Republican 2012 White House hopefuls. When it comes to policy foreign and domestic, from frontrunner Rick Perry on down the GOP field is offering the ultimate faith-based initiative.
For years, the leading lights of the Party of Lincoln have been turning Honest Abe's mantra ("My concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side") on its head. But when it comes to making divine intervention the centerpiece of public policy, Texas Governor Rick Perry is hoping to be the chosen one.
Before entering the GOP presidential race, Governor Perry tried in vain to end the drought in Texas by proclaiming "the three-day period from Friday, April 22, 2011, to Sunday, April 24, 2011, as Days of Prayer for Rain in the State of Texas" and urged "Texans of all faiths and traditions to offer prayers on those days for the healing of our land, the rebuilding of our communities and the restoration of our normal way of life."
But while God didn't hear Perry's call, Perry heard His. As he explained last month before formally jumping into the GOP race:
"I'm not ready to tell you that I'm ready to announce that I'm in. But I'm getting more and more comfortable every day that this is what I've been called to do. This is what America needs."
If the Lord is calling on Rick Perry to lead the United States, Perry plans to call Him back when it's time to actually run it.
The Great Corporate Tax Swindle: Dozens of Companies Pay CEO More Than IRS
By Roger Bybee
America's CEOs are truly in a league of their own when it comes to pay and power.
Total CEO pay at the largest 292 corporations averaged 325 times what the average worker made in 2010, a far higher ratio than in any other Western nation. This figure had actually declined from an incredible 525 times the typical worker's wage in 2000. But the CEOs of the Top 100 are truly in another stratosphere. They averaged an astounding 1,723 times what their workers earned in 2007, according to Les Leopold's excellent book, The Looting of America.
The Washington, D.C.-based think tank Institute for Policy Studies has come up with a different, but equally stunning, way of gauging CEO pay by making a simple comparison. For its new report, Executive Excess 2011, the IPS placed the compensation packages of America's Top 100 CEOs alongside the tax bills of their corporations, and discovered that
Of last year's 100 highest-paid U.S. corporate chief executives, 25 took home more in CEO pay than their company paid in 2010 federal corporate income taxes.
U.S. corporations and their stooges in Congress, including some Democrats, frequently whine that the U.S. corporate tax rate is far too high for U.S. firms to remain competitive. In fact, the multitude of loopholes mean that the official 35% tax rate is almost never imposed. Corporate tax rates for U.S. firms are actually among the lowest among the 30 advanced nations belonging to the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development, reports Citizens for Tax Justice:
According to a 2007 study by the Bush Treasury Department, between 2000-2005 US corporations paid only 13.4% of their profits in corporate income taxes, well below the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) average of 16.1%.
Just in case those figures are too complex for the average congressperson to comprehend, the IPS study offers some very memorable facts:
How Obama Continues Bush's War On Terror Tactics
How once-controversial 'war on terror' tactics became the new normal.
Barack Obama has continued virtually all of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney's once-controversial terrorism and civil liberties policies, a fact now recognized across the political spectrum. Even the right wing acknowledges these policies have continued under the Obama presidency, which is interesting, because for decades Republicans have made political hay by accusing Democrats of being weak on national security (or "soft on terrorism" in this age of terror).
For example, Jack Goldsmith, a right-wing ideologue and a high-ranking Justice Department official in George W. Bush's first term—when "enhanced interrogation techniques" (what the civilized world calls "torture") were frequently employed—has criticized Dick Cheney's daughter and Irving Crystal's son for claiming that Obama has abandoned these policies. In a 2009 article for The New Republic, he writes:
"This premise that the Obama administration has reversed the terror policies is wrong. The new administration has copied most of the Bush program, has expanded some of it and has narrowed only a bit. All of the Obama changes have been at the level of packaging, argumentation, symbol and rhetoric."
The first area where we see this is true is in indefinite detention—the idea that human beings can be caged for years without an opportunity to defend themselves or contest the validity of the charges against them (if they are lucky enough even to be charged). The president's plan for "closing" Guantanamo was not really to close Guantanamo at all. It was simply to move it 2,000 miles north to Illinois, where the controversial aspects of it—namely, imprisoning people for life without due process—were going to be fully preserved and retained.
Undercover Activist Says U.S. Troops Paid for Sex With Underage Girls in Iraq
Sex Trafficking Soars with American War in Iraq
August 27, 2011, By Rebecca Murray
Rania was 16 years old when officials raped her during Saddam Hussein's 1991 crackdown in Iraq's Shia south. "My bothers were sentenced to death, and the price to stop this was to offer my body," she says.
Cast out for bringing 'shame' to her family, Rania ran away to Baghdad and soon fell into living and working in Baghdad's red light district.
Prostitution and sex trafficking are epidemic in Iraq, where the violence of military occupation and sectarian strife have smashed national institutions, impoverished the population and torn apart families and neighbourhoods. Over 100,000 civilians have been killed and an estimated 4.4 million Iraqis displaced since 2003.
"Wars and conflicts, wherever they are fought, invariably usher in sickeningly high level of violence against women and girls," Amnesty International states.

Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985)
Rambo: First Blood Part II Quote: "If winning means he has to die – he'll die. No fear, no regrets. And one more thing, what you choose to call hell, he calls home.." – Colonel Trautman
In case you were wondering: No, "Rambo: First Blood Part II" does not hold up. Unless you served in the U.S. Army or really hate computers. From unimaginable POW rescues to an impossibly glistening Sylvester Stallone, this 1985 action drama is the Father of All Action Movie Tropes. Find out what song makes Big D cry, what scenes make King Bee cringe, and what Gene Lyons actually liked about this utter betrayal of its "Rambo" predecessor.
Plot Summary: "Rambo: First Blood Part II" John Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) is doing hard time in jail when his former boss, Col. Troutman (Richard Crenna), offers him a deal. If Rambo travels to Vietnam to try to find the American prisoners of war, his criminal record will be expunged.

(The cocktails at Rock Lobster are wildly good as well.) It has a lobster bisque gravy, Quebec cheese curds (the good kind), fresh lobster and chives. It's obviously delicious and a front runner for one of Toronto's best poutines. It was $13 and worth every curd.
There are two locations in Toronto, go to one of them and better your life.

The 'Guys side of the Gym'
The Manly SideI took a friend into the gym today who was interested in toning legs, bum, abs etc. We got talking before starting and she explained how she's wanted to strength train in the gym for a while, but hasn't had the confidence to go over into the weights section alone and so usually stays on the other side doing cardio. It brought me back to before last summer where I too shared similar opinions. The weights section of a gym does appear extremely intimidating, with large, muscular men lifting heavy weights and using strange looking gym contraptions. This is not only a problem for women, also one for men who have never really trained before. Sitting next to someone benching some huge, heavy weight and only being able to lift a few kgs is not really a confidence building experience.
First entryThis got me wondering how and when I first felt comfortable enough to enter the weights section of a gym. The answer is; when I started training with Jamie, my first PT. He would take me over there, show me some exercises and no one would bat an eye lid that 'a little girl' was in the manly section of the gym. After a while, I started to get to know the regulars who trained at similar times to me. We would chat during rest periods and comment on the intensity of exercises I was being given. I learned more and more about how to use the equipment in different ways and the best exercises to combine. I started to grow in confidence, as well as strength, in my ability to put together and complete a weight based training session.
Confidence and Knowledge
The biggest issue when it comes to doing weights is knowledge. Everyone knows how to get on a bike and cycle or run on a tredmil, but most people would have no idea what to do with a rack of dumbells or a leg press. The only way you can possibly have a clue is by being shown the ropes and being taught. Obviously not everyone can afford a personal trainer, but there must be someone who is willing to give you some ideas and show you some exercises. Girls, ask a male friend if you can join them for a session or find a training partner who has some knowledge and can help you out. Going with someone else can help you to feel more comfortable and allow you to get the most out of a session, rather than just doing boring cardio for an hour.
Still need a little push?
For those who haven't quite yet built up the courage to go into the weight section alone or are still feeling a little intimidated, here is a short session I did with my friend today. We didn't once enter the weights area, simply staying in the floor work section. We still worked hard, using free weights and doing strength endurance exercises. I have to say it was much more fun than running on the tredmil for 30 minutes.
2 sets of:
Squats (holding a ViPR horizontally in arms)
- 15 reps
- lower for 4 seconds, power up for 1 second
3 rounds of the superset:
Thread the Needle with the ViPR
- 15 reps
Jumping squats
- 10 reps
3 rounds of the superset:
Kettle bell swings
- 30 seconds
Step ups onto box holding dumbells
- 12 step ups
Abs Circuit:
Leg throw downs
- 5 centre, 5 left side, 5 right side, 5 centre
Leg throw downs
- 5 centre, 5 left side, 5 right side, 5 centre
Crunches, passing medicine ball to and from partner
- 12 reps
Leg throw downs
- 5 centre, 5 left side, 5 right side, 5 centre
Crunches, passing medicine ball to and from partner
- 12 reps
Russian twists with medicine ball
-20 reps
Just do it
Despite the stereotype that a weights section of a gym is for big strong men, this really isn't the case. The truth is, when in the gym, everyone is so focussed on their own session they barely even notice you or what weight you are lifting. Everyone has to start from somewhere and you don't get big without first being small and working hard. Also, a girl who lifts will always have a much sexier figure than a girl who just constantly runs and guys will love that. My advice is bite the bullet! Get in the weights section of a gym and start really training. Go with a friend, ask for a gym trainer's help or get in touch. I will be more than happy to explain how to use some of the odd looking machinary and/or help put together a programme. If you would still feel more comfortable staying in the floor area, then again I can help with ideas of exercises. You can work just as hard and tone up just as easily using ViPRs, the TRX, kettle bells etc as you can from using the machines in the weights area. So go on, get started!!!

Children's Children
Children's Children
"Everything leaves marks, even water…"
Two children watching their parents argue inside a greenhouse; an armoured boy and his troubled sister; a human statue who's lost the ability to move; a floating six-year-old tethered to the backyard fence. The characters in Jan Carson's debut story collection are all falling apart in their own peculiar way.
Absurdist, allegorical and disturbingly convincing, these characters are both wrongdoers and victims of another's wrongdoing. They are people marked by life yet struggling to forge some kind of future.
Mixing Carson's distinctive magic realist voice with a more traditional brand of Irish literary fiction, Children's Children explores the concept of legacy and the influence of one generation upon the next. These are darkly humorous and brilliantly illuminative stories which are both heartbreaking and hopeful and gently critical of post-conflict Northern Ireland.
Stories from this collection have appeared in Banshee, The Honest Ulsterman, Storm Cellar and other journals and have been longlisted for the Sean O'Faolain Short Story Prize and nominated for the Pushcart Prize.
'Carson is a born storyteller' —The Guardian
'Sharply written and inventive, Carson's stories move effortlessly from reality to dystopia to surreal vignettes in a style that recalls the up-and-coming American authors Laura van den Berg and Diane Cook' —The Irish Times
'Belfast's most exciting and most magical writer' — The Sunday Times
'Heartbreaking in places, hilarious in others, always utterly enchanting and unforgettable. There's something so compelling about reading stories by a writer so perfectly attuned to the rhythms of life and loss and love, so alive to the depth and and richness of our seams. Jan's prose shimmers and her stories are luminous.' —Donal Ryan, author of The Spinning Heart.
'Carson often punctures the bizarre world her characters inhabit to create moments of sublime emotion. A collection of incredibly finely crafted short stories' —Totally Dublin
'Carson's writing is wonderful, with each line delivered with beautifully poetic poise. ..she gives the reader a multitude of genuine laugh-out-load moments and brilliant one liners. '—Pure M magazine
Jan Carson is a writer and community arts development officer currently based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Her first novel, Malcolm Orange Disappears was published in June 2014. In 2014 she was a recipient of the Arts Council NI Artist's Career Enhancement Bursary.

Afterwards breaking things off with Jubilee and sending home Caroline, John was in crisis of activity home at the Rose Ceremony – but a last-ditch accomplishment to affix with Chelsea paid off.

Leo was abominable in this season, abnormally appear Kendall, but his anticipation that Kendall may breach Joe's affection seems prescient.
Last week: 18

August | Dover Class of 2017
August is one of the coolest young men you're ever going to meet. He's my son Andrew's oldest friend, and I've watched them grow up together. August often says he's in the wrong time with his love of vintage things and his interest in historic pop culture. He collects records and record players and deejays his own oldies show (High Noon Oldies on DNP 102.3FM ) He's always been known for his artwork and more recently his street photography. Just a great kid.
He loves his city of Dover and exploring the old buildings and alley ways was important to him in his senior pictures. He brought some records and a record player. We stumbled across the perfect car in an alley, and he had fun playing with my vintage Nikon. All in all, it was a great time. I look forward to seeing what Aug accomplishes in the future. No doubt, he's going to make the most of whatever is in front of him.

Late in 1995 I purchased my first electric guitar (except for a brief fling at 13), a Korean Squier Stratocaster that was unbelievably noisy. When I looked "under the hood" I was appalled to find an unshielded mess of ground loops. Having many years experience as an electronics technician I was flabbergasted that even an inexpensive guitar would be so poorly wired. You can imagine my disgust when I discovered that even many "high-end" guitars costing hundreds or even thousands of dollars were wired no better than that cheap Squier. Naturally I shielded and wired that Strat properly and it became so quiet that I could play it in front of my computer monitor at reasonably high gain without a lot of noise. After hearing horror stories of people being told by their local dealers that guitars equipped with single-coil pickups were supposed to hum, that it was "part of the Fender sound," I became disgusted enough to put instructions for wiring and shielding guitars up on my personal web site.
The response was overwhelming and soon I was exceeding the amount of traffic permitted by the ISP I was using so I purchased a domain and began paying to have the account hosted by a commercial web hosting company.
From those humble beginnings GuitarNuts has steadily grown as I am able to add new features to the site. It is no longer just a wiring site, we now have other sections including a public forum. I've never really promoted the site, have never even submitted it to a search engine, but after Guitar Player magazine featured the site traffic snowballed so rapidly that I had to kick my commercial account up a level because I was again reaching the point where my bandwidth was being throttled before the end of the month.
As for day-to-day operations, GuitarNuts remains mostly a one-man effort. However, I now have a number of people I trust to perform gear reviews and to whom I turn for advice in areas outside my field of expertise. Volunteers also contribute greatly to the site, from sending schematics of their favorite modifications to John Thornburgh's fine article on potting pickups to photographs of a shielding project in progress. If you have something you would like to contribute, I gladly welcome all such input. Just please understand that it may take some time before your submissions actually show up on the site because, when it comes to answering e-mail and updating the site, this is still pretty much a one-man operation, and that one man has to work for a living just like y'all!

It had a grounding issue - too noisy when I wasn't touching the strings. I decided to add the shielding as well - why? Because my US Strat, which has shielding paint and aluminium foil on the pickguard (to create a Faraday cage) put there by the factory, is actually quieter than my Les Paul ...in the cheap, sleazy, sweaty, smelly rehearsal rooms I often find myself anyway...

I can't really use a fuzz face there - certainly not a si one anyway.
Most guitars with single-coil pickups suffer to some degree from hum. Almost all are much noisier than they need to be, because the manufacturers don't bother to shield them well and don't follow simple electronic wiring principles that have been known for decades. This holds true even for many premium guitars costing thousands of dollars. Even some guitars equipped with humbuckers can benefit from good shielding and grounding – guitars that pick up local radio stations are good examples.

Yes, but the shielding itself does not form a capacitor. Why? Because the two "plates" the OP reffers to are connected together and to ground.
The additional capacitance is between the shielding and the wires signal passes through. This means
1. since a wire has a lot less surface area, the area of overlap is smaller so the resulting capacitance is (much) lower;
2. there are at least two dielectrics between the two "plates": the insulation around the wire and the air between that and the cavity shielding. At least two because some wires have more complex insulation.
If these wires are already shielded themselves (with a screen to ground) I believe there will be no added capacitance. This is also why you eliminate crosstalk between two wires by shielding them.
But would you still benefit from cavity shielding if you already have shielded wires? Yes, because the cavities contain other components that may or may not be individually shielded.

dai h. wrote:thanks.
(I think) I get the concept of minimizing area of any loops to reduce hum induction (on those loops--like how a transformer works), but not quite getting my head around the need for a star (individual wires for every ground point).

Job sharing Definition:
Job sharing can be defined as a work arrangement where two employees have been given two duties in a proper full time position that makes it a very effective way for proper business and to accommodate the unconventional employee schedules.
An example can be used to explain this. A mom who is working will need to spend a little more time with her kids at home than at work. If the views of the company are still too valuable to lose, it would still be quite an attractive strategy of retention.
But sharing jobs doesn't really have any disadvantages for the employers. Let us now look at some of the job share benefits or advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages of Job Sharing:
The following mentioned are some of the few pros or benefits of job sharing.
1. Provides a time of relaxation to all employees:
The best advantage that comes with job sharing is that all workers have the exclusive opportunity to spend some time in relaxation.
After all, the work is being divided among the people and because of that there is no need for them to break their heads over it.
Work will be much better balanced that way and it will also allow all employees to enjoy themselves a lot more at work. It will improve the environment as well if you look at it.
2. Best for people who get along well:
If a job is being shared between two people that get along very well, then there will hardly be any chances of collapsing or having any troubles in the near future.
If you want people with whom you work to share their assignments, then you have to place them with people they actually like.
In that way job sharing can work wonderfully and will not lead to problems and conflicts in the future. This is one of the best benefits that could come with job sharing.
3. Know more about each others skills and knowledge:
Sharing jobs could help you learn a lot about people's skills and knowledge. If you don't know much about the other person, it could be a great chance to do so.
Plus sharing knowledge and skills could help you become a much smarter person. It would prepare you for the future. You will be able to grasp enough knowledge and improve your skills over time as well.
Sharing jobs is definitely one of the best ways in which you can discover the knowledge of others.
4. Better channels of communication:
The channels of communication are also improved quite a bit when sharing jobs is used at work.
People are able to understand each other better, connect with others in a much better way and are also able to meet all deadlines.
Communication skills is something so essential in all workplaces that we just cant do without them and if you really want to improve that today, then consider job sharing. You will go a long way.
5. Are able to work better:
The results are always much better when you share jobs with someone. After all, two people will be working on the same thing so the results are obviously going to be great.
6. Loyalty and hard work:
Crucially, in order to make such arrangements at work, job sharers have to work hard and have very strong work ethics along with the ability to communicate the right way.
Also there has to be some kind of accountability which is attached to sharing jobs and the job sharers who are successful will feel accountable towards their partners as well as employers so that they can demonstrate how job sharing really works. They happen to be quite loyal to one another too.
7. Super productive:
Job sharers are also quite hyper productive and they make sure that the time they spend at work has been utilized completely and that they shift from a time when they found themselves constantly saying sorry for work that they didn't complete for family problems.
8. Having a long term career:
The thing is that most job sharers must progress together. Development of community executives such as Sarah Kitterman and Nora Baloch happen to be a good example.
After around eight years of sharing a job at the Eastern Bank, the sharing of the job has moved like a team to the lending group at Boston.
Disadvantages of Job Sharing:
Just like the advantages, the disadvantages of job sharing are plenty. Keep reading to find out what they are and how one can learn to avoid such situations in the future.
1. Having bad partners:
One of the worst and most common disadvantages of sharing any job is that you might end up with a bad partner.
If two people are responsible for completing one project with a certain deadline and one person fails do so, both of you will be held responsible for the same mistake. Secondly, always remember that it's not always about some kind of digging.
Even if the blame has died clearly with just one of the workers, the situation is quite a hassle for the employer himself who might end up taking up a lot of time in order to sort out what exactly happened.
The only way to reduce such problems is to make sure that such responsibilities have been divided clearly. Meetings need to be held regularly in order to see progress.
2. Changes in partner:
If there is one partner who decides to leave suddenly, the entire arrangement will end up falling apart.
The employer may actually end up finding people who are willing to show some sense of participation in the arrangement of job sharing or maybe just that one person who wants to fit both the schedule as the duties at the same time.
At the very least, the period of transition is quite rocky as well as disruptive when the job of sharing is actually supposed to help one another.
3. Troubles in recruitment:
The employees who happen to be in a job sharing situation might not always be eligible for the same kind of benefits that a full time worker would like to receive and that would depend on the policy of the company.
On the other hand, that could have become an advantage because the employer would be able to save some of the cost benefits.
For several employers, losing out on some health insurance or maybe job benefits happens to become a deal breaker. This makes it even harder for employees to find candidates for job sharing positions.
4. Poor administrative costs:
The arrangement of sharing jobs could also result in a much higher administrative. For example, manager will have to spend some more time on training and communicating some of this efforts with two other employees, compared to dealing with a worker who works full time.
There will be a few administrative arrangements that have to be made in some human resources.
5. Division of labour:
There are some tasks which could be difficult for employers to divide among other people.
For example, one client would prefer to deal with one representative instead of two employees and that could negatively impact the satisfaction of the customers.
Having communication regularly and sharing jobs while having partners could lead to a few problems but there are a few problems that will become insurmountable.
6. Puts friendship on a test:
One of the worst disadvantages that come with job sharing is that it could put even the most strong friendships on a test!
In case the partners are able to maintain a much effective communication and share all important information regarding current projects, it is still quite possible to maintain an environment that is cooperative.
But just in case there is one partner who doesn't get all the kudos or even any kind of attention from the boss and the other one gets a lot of it, it could put the friendship at a stake.
7. Leads to heavy competition:
Another thing that is quite common with job sharing is that it leads to too much competition.
After all, two people will be given the same kind of job and will be expected to make the best out of it.
Having too much competition is never a healthy or a safe idea but that is a common side effect that comes with job sharing and for this there is no other solution apart from getting rid of the system altogether.
8. Costs double the amount:
With job sharing, the amount will be doubled. After all, two people will be doing the same job and will be paid equally.
You could have given one person and paid them one amount but that is not going to happen because jobs will be shared from now on.
Companies who have tried this method in the past have suffered quite a lot and ended up spending a whole lot of cash that is not even necessary.
In order to avoid such situations, either get someone who can handle one job or just have a team of people who will do a little bit of the tasks.
This brings the post to an end. Always remember the pros and cons of job sharing are plenty. It is ultimately upto you to see whether you can handle something like that or not.
You have to read the post thoroughly in order to understand the concept of job sharing and the several job sharing opportunities.

Are you ready?! If you're like me, you've been trying to get organized for the first day of school, while still relaxing and savoring the last bits of summer. It's not really working all that well trying to do both, but hopefully we'll be prepared. Speaking of the start of school, have you updated your Infinite Campus accounts and visited the Piedmont Store yet? If you have, thank you, and if you haven't, please do so as soon as possible. The updating is important in maintaining student safety, and your contributions to our schools, parents clubs, and parent support groups are vital to the success of our schools and district. For the Piedmont Store, please pay particular attention to the Havens-specific items such as Havens Parents Club membership, Class Funds, Field Trip Funds, Volunteer Opportunities, Technology Fund, and Tri-School Lice Checks.
In addition, to get you in the school spirit, please join us at the HPC Back-to-School Coffee in Ellen Driscoll on the first day of school, Tuesday, August 15, from 8:30-10:00 am. After you drop off your student, you can grab a cup of joe, sign up for Havens volunteer opportunities, talk with HPC board members, meet new parents, and catch up with old friends. Then bring the entire family to celebrate the start of the school year at the Havens Family Fun Fest on Friday, August 18, from 5:00-7:00 pm. Kick off the weekend by hanging out with friends and meeting new ones, enjoying dinner (available for purchase or bring a picnic), learning about the many parent groups that support our school district, signing up to volunteer, and purchasing fabulous new Havens merchandise. It will be fun for both parents and kids, so please join us.
Many HPC board members, such as those working in the areas of Merchandise, After-School Enrichment, Room Parents, Lunch Services, and Harvest Festival, have been busy this summer preparing for the new school year. Please thank them by stopping by their tables at the coffee or family fun fest and buying their wares, signing up for classes, or volunteering. By doing so, you will be benefiting Havens greatly. Thanks!
Dana Lung, HPC President

For the last century, transportation systems have largely been planned, designed and managed as purely physical infrastructure systems. But mobility in the United States is fast becoming an informatics-based activity. Modern urban transportation systems are being re-programmed by a new wave of information and communications systems developed and deployed by new technology firms directly to consumers. As a result, people in U.S. metropolitan areas increasingly depend on a growing array of services and technologies to make and manage travel choices.
And while new technological innovations are already having major demonstrable impacts on key transportation planning objectives including sustainability, livability, and accessibility – policies in these areas remain focused on infrastructure and urban form rather than the direct behavioral impacts of the new technologies. Meanwhile, these high-value, high-impact innovations in transportation are coming from the private sector with little coordination or planning. And their collective impact is not being adequately explored.
With funding from the Rockefeller Foundation, this research developed a database of over 200 signals of digital transportation innovation. These signals were used to construct a set of alternative futures scenarios for transportation, land use, and planning in metropolitan areas in the United States in 2030. This work has been widely influential in supporting a new wave of local and metropolitan planning efforts focused on dealing with new technologies.

WTOP: U.S. suspending publication of Arabic language magazine
This is a really unfortunate piece of news. I think the content of the magazine as well as the name 'Hi' should be changed. Hi is a word used by people who are considered the aristocracy and is looked down on by the people we really need to be changing. Give the magazine a stronger name, give it more daring and thought provoking content and you got a winner.

How to Make a Backup of Your WordPress Blog - Viral Tech
Go to content
How to Make a Backup of Your WordPress Blog
Making a backup copy of a WordPress installation is important, not only to ensure against data loss in case of a server crash, but it also protects you if your blog ever gets hacked or if anything else goes wrong.
A backup can also be useful if you move a WordPress installation from one server to another, for example from your local computer to a web space, or vice versa. But how do you actually do this?
A Backup Can Be Used for Many Things
In addition to acting as a pure backup of a WordPress installation, in case something goes wrong, a backup can also act as a replica of a specific WordPress setup.
A backup can act as a copy for a project, something you can return to at a later date. This applies particularly if you intend to create more web pages for yourself, friends or for customers.
What Do You Need to Make a Backup
Backing up a WordPress installation can be done manually or it can be done with a software package or service. The latter is usually much easier, and we will look at this later. First, we will start with manual copying, that can be performed with FTP software.
Manual Copying
We will show you how to make a backup of your WordPress installation by copying files and the database. What you need to backup your WordPress files from a web host is a FTP program and access to phpMyAdmin. If you have WordPress installed local on your computer, you don't need a FTP program.
is a free FTP program you can use.
Do a Little Spring Cleaning Before You Begin
Before you get started with copying WordPress files, you may want to delete plugins that you do not actually use. This is especially true if you have used WordPress for a long time, and have installed several extensions for testing. The problem is that all installed extensions, including those that are not activated, are included when copying WordPress files. The more redundant files you have, the longer it will take to copy.
Copy WordPress Files
Start by logging into your web host via the FTP program (you will need your web hosting details and password et cetera). The location of your WordPress installation varies by hosting, ie the folder where files are located, but this is usually public_HTML. You should look for files that are named wp-admin, wp-content and wp-includes. Also note that any hidden files in the folder must also be included, you can usually find an option in the FTP program, which is similar to "show hidden files" if you can't see any. If you can see the "htaccess" folder, then all files are being displayed.
Create a new folder on your computer, for example wordpress_backup in the documents folder. You can then transfer all WordPress files from your web host to the new folder simply by highlighting them all and dragging them to the desired folder using a program such as FileZilla. Copying all the files will take time, so be patient.
Restore a Backup
To restore a WordPress installation, you simply perform the same process, but in reverse, by copying the files from your computer to your web host. You can choose to restore the WordPress installation to the same domain as before, or to a new domain.
Copy the Database
Log into phpMyAdmin via your web host panel, and select the appropriate database you want to backup and export. Every web host will be different, so if you don't know where to locate phpMyAdmin contact your provider and ask for assistance. Click on "export" to download the file to your computer as a .sql file. The database essentially contains important details such a username and password, and most importantly, all your posts. If you copy your WordPress files to a new web host but don't import the database, you'll be left with a blank blog that only contains things like your plug-ins and WordPress files.
If you have more than one database, and are unsure which one you need to backup, you will find the answer in the file wp-config.php file that can be found in the wordpress folder on your server.
To import your database you simply select "import" and select the file on your computer. Once you've imported the database, you should then be able to login with your current username and password you used when you 1st install WordPress.
You will need to edit the wp-config file in WordPress, if you need or decide to change your MySQL username and password details.
How to Backup WordPress The Easy Way
Many of us prefer simpler solutions. There are lots of plug-ins that solve this and make backing up WordPress a lot easier. For this, BackWPup Free is a good option and free.
Free can be downloaded and installed as a plugin within WordPress. Once you've installed the plug-in, it will be accessible via the left-hand admin menu within WordPress.
This plug-in offers several possibilities, but you can start by selecting "Add a new backup job". You will then see a new window, with the ability to configure the new task.
You can choose the file format and where you want your backups to be stored, such as to a folder on your computer, email, FTP, or a cloud storage service. Once you have finished entering all your details, click the save button. You can then access and edit these jobs any time by selecting BackWPup and choosing "jobs" on the left-hand side of your admin WordPress panel.
If for example, you wanted to save a backup of your WordPress installation to your computer, simply select "jobs" and click on "run now". Please note, this may take several minutes or several hours, depending on the size of your blog. Once it has completed simply click on "download" where you are then given the option to save it to your computer.
Feel free to experiment with the plug-in and choose the settings that best suit you.

Foam Type Overview:
Polyethylenes, also known by the brand name Ethafoam™, are very durable closed cell foams that offer good cost performance. Polyethylenes can absorb repeated impacts and still supply cushioning value. They also provide excellent shock and vibration protection. They are best used for mid-weight to heavy objects, such as computers, televisions, and industrial parts.
Polystyrenes, commonly known as EPS (for expanded polystyrene) or by the Dow Chemical brand name Styrofoam™. Polystyrenes are semi-rigid, closed cell foams. They are easily adapted to many applications and offer excellent cost performance. Advanced Foam is one of the largest fabricators of polystyrene foams and supplies both EPS and Styrofoam brand products.
Polyurethanes are soft to medium foams. Urethane foams are light density, open cell foams; they are the same type of foam you find in sofa cushions and mattresses. Polyurethanes are an ideal packaging material for lightweight and fragile objects.
Edge Armor is a unique dual density polyethylene foam product intended for products with thin, vulnerable edges. An example is a large fiberglass automotive part that is not especially fragile, but has an easily damaged edge. Other common examples include sheet metal or glass and mirror products.
Foam Selection in 4 Easy Steps:*
Chart 1. Determine the approximate fragility level of your product:
"Fragility" refers to the maximum shock that an item can withstand without suffering damage. This fragility is normally expressed by a "G" value. G is the gravitational constant; the cushioning G-value indicates the deceleration, or negative acceleration that an item can withstand without being damaged (in this case the instantaneous deceleration of a dropped product hitting the ground) . The more fragile a product is, the less G-s it can tolerate. The function of cushioning is to extend the time of speed reduction and thereby reduce deceleration.
Chart 2. Foam Selection
Chart 3. Foam Thickness
*Please note that this tool is meant as a guide only. Fragility can be deceptive. A raw egg, for example, demonstrates a G-factor of 200, or nearly double the drop durability of a refrigerator.
For an optimal design, fragility levels should not be estimated but defined through drop test data. If the G-factor is estimated too high, and the product is unable to survive as much shock as anticipated, the packaging will be under-designed and significant shipping damage may occur. On the other hand, if the G-factor is estimated too low, the packaging will be over-designed and unnecessarily large and/or expensive.
In other words, it's important to determine the G-factor. This is why we have an in-house drop test lab. Through testing, we can scientifically optimize your packaging to reduce your costs while ensuring your peace of mind.

Maymont Park Engagement Session in Fall
Maymont Park Engagement Photos - Marissa + Josh
Marissa and Joshua met in college when she was studying to be a teacher and he was studying to be a geologist. They were first introduced by our roommates and met on Halloween.
Joshua proposed at the Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens. First, they went to visit the butterfly room, and then he asked her to marry him out on a pier over the water.
For their engagement session, they were back in the gardens and their day at Maymont Park in Richmond, VA couldn't have been more beautiful!
We started their fall session in the sunny Italian gardens and as the temperatures cooled, we headed down to the Japanese gardens in search of some fall leaves. Joshua is a true outdoorsy type and was really excited when we saw deer down around the water!
These two are naturals in front of the camera and we had the best time exploring the park on a beautiful fall day!
Here are a few of my favorite images from their session!

POD presented both an interesting and challenging commission. My clients each wanted to give their wives a jewelry box. The two couples are good friends and as a symbol of their friendship, they requested a design that would be similar yet still reflect each couple's individual tastes. One was looking for an understated, elegant look yet possessing a little flair. The other wanted something funky that would grab people's attention.

I made these pinwheel cookies this past weekend to give away as samples at the Melbourne Beach Farmer's Market. I used the Spiced Fig Hummus and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Hummus to create two delicious kinds of treats! They quickly vanished off the tray 🙂
Head off to The Green Turtle or Downtown Produce to pick up some hummus in order to recreate these little treasures!
If you want to add a burst of flavor to some ordinary cookie dough, here is a great and simple way to do it: Roll out the cookie dough, spread on some Gingerbread Hummus, roll up the dough like a jelly roll or cinnamon roll log, and slice and bake! Here is the recipe:
Immaculate Baking Co. Organic Sugar Cookie Dough- 8 cookie dough rounds
2 Tablespoons of Gingerbread Hummus
Preheat oven to 350. Allow dough to sit out for about 5 minutes. Lightly flour counter and roll out dough to an approx. 8″x4″ rectangle. Spread hummus over the entire rectangle. Starting on the long side, carefully roll the dough over until into a long log-shape. Slice into 10-12 cookies and place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool a few minutes on the pan and then transfer to a wire rack.
You can use any flavor of sweet hummus and you can double the recipe to accommodate your tastes and needs.
