How would you define the world disability? A restriction? An impairment? A limitation?
This challenging question kicked of the debate at this week's awareness-raising event with Jeunesse Mobilisée pour un meilleur climat (Young People Mobilised for a Better Climate) in Tanghin, Ouagadougou. A lively discussion followed, covering topics such as what it means to be disabled, and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The Inclusive Sports team added lots to the debate, showing mages of athletes at the 2012 London Paralympic Games which emphasised how stereotypes can change the way we perceive people.

The overriding message that came out of the session was that the implications of disability go be beyond physical health; they are part of a complex phenomenon which reflects the interaction between features of a person's body and features of the society in which he or she lives.
|Felicity explains the rules of the relay
Nearing midday, we headed out of the classroom to lead a relay in which players, divided into two teams of four, raced to fill a bucket with water. Player one was given crutches, player two was blindfolded, player three was given gloves to wear and player four wasn't given any additional equipment. The main aim of this activity, which recreates what it is like to have specific disabilities, was to give the participants a glimpse into what it is like living with a disability, and encourage people to reflect on how they interact with disabled people in everyday life.
The Inclusive Sports team then led competitive blind-running races, Boccia and a game of goalball. It was clear to all that sports can be easily enjoyed by everybody just by adapting to the needs of the players, whether by modifying the equipment, the rules, the instructions, or the environment to make the game more accessible.
|Felicity and Emma try their hand at guided running
Goalball attracted a large crowd from the surrounding area, as participants faced the challenge of to getting their bearings and stopping the ball while blindfolded. Goalball features three players at each end of the pitch who aim to score by bowling past the opposition who are also trying to block the ball from going past their line. As the sport has been developed for those with visual impairments the ball has a bell in the centre meaning all players must rely solely on their hearing to play, which is no mean feat!
A great awareness event for everybody involved, the day in Tanghin produced some great discussions about disability and positive feedback from the participants. Around 10% of the world's population is disabled and if we include their immediate families then at least 25% of the world is directly affected by disability. Moreover, 80% of those living with a disability live in developing nations, and, as Nathalie said on the day, we cannot speak of development without including all of the population.

What's love got to do with It?
Once in a while, I come across a new idea that fundamentally changes how I see the world. Sometimes the idea turns everything I thought I knew upside down. Other times, the idea fills in a missing puzzle piece in a dozen different situations, unexpectedly finishing a picture that I didn't even realize was incomplete.
Last month-ish, my favorite brother recommended a book called Predictably Irrational, by Dan Ariely. Ariely is a behavioral economist and the book is about how and why we make certain kinds of decisions. One idea he brings up (not original to him, but this is the first I've come across it) is social norms vs. market norms.
In the world of social norms, we do things for each other without expecting financial compensation (in fact, financial compensation is considered insulting and mercenary), but we do expect some sort of social compensation (often by being on the receiving end of a similar favor). In the world of market norms, everything has a price and exchanges are based on that price.
For example, if you go to a restaurant, everything on the menu has a price and you pay for what you order. Likewise, everything in a grocery store has a clear price. Those are market norms. But if you go to your mother's house for Thanksgiving and she fixes you a big meal and you offer to pay her for it, she'll be offended. And if your roommate asks to borrow a cup of milk and you demand 24 cents for it, you'll probably be considered mercenary. However, you're now in a position to ask him or her a small favor. And if the only time you ever spoke to your mother or had contact with her was at Thanksgiving, you'd probably be considered ungrateful.
Market norms aren't bad—without them, we couldn't go grocery shopping if we didn't personally know the store owner. However, social norms are very useful when you want help moving or need to borrow a cup of milk.
Some other thoughts:
• In the last month, two friends have mentioned that they're tired of giving away their professional expertise for free. One said that it's sucking up all of her free time. The other one didn't give specifics, but I gather it's the same issue. (Or she's feeling underappreciated in other ways. Or both.) My first thought on hearing about these situations was "Breakdown of social norms!" It's not that these people are averse to using their professional skills to help their friends, but they're giving out more than they're getting back.
• I think that social norms explain a lot about how online social collaboration works. In theory, no one should be proofreading articles on Wikipedia or combining book editions on LibraryThing or answering questions on the 100 Hour Board for free. In practice, people make those contributions because they like being part of a community. (There may also be a sense of "ownership" involved, whether it's over your article, your tag cloud, or your set of answered questions, so the contribution isn't necessarily entirely altruistic.)
• I recently read an article arguing that we should give cash instead of presents because, on average, we value the gifts we receive at only 80% of their cash value. (I.e., people aren't perfect at picking out gifts, so the gifts lose an average of 20% of their value when they're given.) However, if we give cash, no value is lost in the transaction.
This article rubbed me the wrong way when I read it, but I couldn't put my finger on why until I read about social norms. Reducing the significance of a gift exchange to the market value of the gifts involved ignores the more complex social factors underlying the exchange. (In addition, this argument ignores the value of the "surprise" factor in gift giving, although some people care more about this than others. Perhaps economists, by personality, are less likely to care.)
• Mormon Wards are basically large social exchange markets. We all pitch in for free, but it's OK because everyone else is also pitching in for free. Of course, some people have to do more work than others, but that also seems to go along with more "prestigious" callings. (Is the added level of social prestige necessary to offset the added time investment? Discuss.)

Fresh from another Mercury nomination for her debut album Hopelessness – this time as a solo artist (and publicly as a woman) – Anohni has craft ed a record that fizzes with anger yet sounds like the kind of lush pop record you want to get up and dance to.
In 'Drone Bomb Me' she sings from the perspective of a young Afghan girl, begging for death aft er her family is killed by a bomb, and in '4 Degrees' she sardonically longs to see the animals burn, the fish go belly up in the sea. Heavy themes for a pop dance record. "It was a much more sly approach than I'd ever employed before," Anohni explains.
When you listen to the album, one thing is clear: Anohni is mad as hell. She's mad at Obama for his hypocritical bombing of innocents, she's mad that society is still full of inequality, and she's especially pissed about our changing climate and our leaders' unwillingness to do anything significant about it. As debut albums go, it's brave, it's complicated and it's revolutionary.
Despite the recent name change, Anohni has identified as transgender since childhood. And any fans of her earlier music will be familiar with her themes of identity, femininity and vulnerability. "I've never really had the courage to ask people to address me in the feminine," she says. But now, as Anohni, that courage has found a voice and she's channelling it in a unique way to address some of the biggest crises facing humanity right now.

Unemployed Illegal Alien High on Meth Attacks Police – Officers Cleared in Shooting
Three police officers were cleared in the shooting death of illegal immigrant Antonio Zambrano-Montes in Washington state.
Zambrano-Montes was high on meth throwing rocks at the police when he was shot dead in February.
The AP reported:
Three police officers in Washington state who fatally shot a rock-throwing Mexican immigrant in February will not face criminal charges, a prosecutor announced Wednesday, saying there was no evidence the officers acted with malice.
The death of Antonio Zambrano-Montes, 35, was captured on cellphone video and sparked months of protests in Pasco, an agricultural center in eastern Washington. Witnesses said Zambrano-Montes fought with an officer, threw rocks and repeatedly told officers to kill him before they opened fire.
At a news conference repeatedly interrupted by protesters Wednesday, Franklin County Prosecutor Shawn Sant said the evidence showed that the officers used legal force as they tried to arrest a man who had assaulted them and was threatening to attack them further. Sant said he could not meet the high bar for criminal prosecution under Washington state law, which requires a showing that the officers acted with malice and without good faith that their actions were justified.
"The officers used legal force to prevent injuries to themselves and others," the prosecutor said. "Certainly there is no evidence of malice."
The shooting occurred Feb. 10 in a busy intersection, as Zambrano-Montes, high on meth, threw rocks at police. They tried unsuccessfully to subdue him with a stun gun, then, after he threw a rock at an officer's head, Officer Adam Wright shot, striking him in the arm, Sant said. The three officers then chased him across a street.
Video of the shooting showed the officers following Zambrano-Montes, then firing a second volley of shots as he turned to face them. Wright told investigators the man was transferring a rock from his left hand to his right, apparently preparing to throw again. At least one video shows movements consistent with that description, and investigators said a rock weighing nearly 3 pounds was found by Zambrano-Montes' body.
The video of Zambrano-Montes confronting police was widely distributed on YouTube.

By: Lesley M. Hamming and Prof. Phillip B. Messersmith, Material Matters 2008, 3.3, 52.
Biomedical Engineering Department Northwestern University Evanston, IL email@example.com
Accumulation of biological matter at surfaces is an inevitable event in virtually any environment in which natural and man-made materials are used. Although sometimes fouling of surfaces with biomolecules and bioorganisms has little consequence, biofouling must be minimized or controlled in order to maintain performance and safety of devices and structures. For example, in the medical environment, components of biofluids such as proteins, cells and pathogens have a propensity to strongly adhere to surfaces, altering performance with potentially hazardous outcomes. Urinary tract infections resulting from microbial colonization of catheters represents the most common hospital-acquired infection.1 Implantable medical devices are also susceptible to microbially influenced corrosion (MIC) leading to the need for replacement surgeries with increased risk of infection.2 Additional examples of surfaces prone to biofouling include the hulls of marine vessels which often become coated with marine organisms and their secretions, decreasing the efficiency of propulsion and contributing to higher fuel consumption.3 This article will briefly highlight approaches for limiting biofouling of surfaces using grafted polymers, including biomimetic strategies for linking polymers onto surfaces.
A common strategy for preventing biofouling is to graft an anti-fouling polymer onto a surface as depicted in Figure 1.4 Key features of such grafted polymer systems include chemical characteristics, molecular weight and architecture of the antifouling polymer, and the method by which the polymer is grafted to the surface. One of the most extensively studied anti-fouling polymers is poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), a water soluble polymer with low toxicity and extensive history of use in medicine and drug delivery.5 PEG is widely available to academic and industrial researchers through either direct synthesis or purchase, and with appropriate chemical derivatization can be grafted onto surfaces to reduce the nonspecific adsorption of proteins, cells and bacteria (see Table on p. 54 of this issue). Although the thermodynamic and molecular mechanisms for the protein and cell resistance of surface immobilized PEG are not completely understood, numerous studies have determined that steric hindrance effects, chain length, grafting density, chain conformation, and hydrophilicity of the grafted polymer play important roles in resisting protein adhesion.6-8
Figure 1. Grafted antifouling polymer systems consist of an antifouling polymer (blue lines) anchored by specific functional groups (triangles) onto a substrate (gray), providing a physical barrier to adsorption of proteins (red), cells (blue) and bacteria (green) onto the underlying surface.
Grafting of antifouling polymers onto surfaces can be accomplished using two basic strategies. The graft-to approach consists of surface adsorption of pre-synthesized polymer functionalized with a chemical anchoring group. In contrast, graft-from approaches rely on in-situ polymerization of polymer from a grafted initiator. Graftto systems are typically of monolayer thickness (a few nanometers), and can be formed through physisorption or chemisorption of polymer from a solvent. Graft-from systems are generally much thicker (10–100 nanometers or more) but require pre-functionalization of the substrate with a suitable initiator. Essential to both approaches, however, is the ultimate requirement of either physisorptive or chemisorptive interactions to hold the polymer onto the surface. Physisorption relies on relatively weak Van der Waals or hydrophobic forces to tether polymers onto a surface, with an example being the adsorption of Pluronic-type block copolymers onto hydrophobic substrates.9 Chemisorption typically provides more robust linking of polymer to substrate, and is exemplified by gold-thiolate,10 metal oxide-silane linkages,11 and electrostatic interactions.12
It has recently become apparent that strategies employed by biological organisms can provide inspiration for new approaches to grafting polymers onto surfaces. Of particular interest are unusual amino acids found in marine adhesive proteins and used to secure robust attachment to wet surfaces. Marine mussels adhere firmly to a variety of material surfaces such as rocks, wood, animals, and shells even in a wet and turbulent environment. The amino acid 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) (D9628 ) is present at concentrations of up to 27 mol% in proteins located near the interface of the mussel's adhesive pad and the substrate (Figure 2).13 DOPA contributes remarkable adhesive properties as demonstrated by single molecule force spectroscopy,14 forming strong chemical interactions with both organic and inorganic surfaces.
Figure 2. Biologically inspired strategies for grafting antifouling polymers onto surfaces. (a) Image of a mussel adhered to a substrate, (b) Schematic of the adhesive pad and interfacial location of mussel adhesive proteins (Mefp3, Mefp5) with the highest content of the amino acid 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA), (c) Chemical structure of DOPA, (d) Example graft-to biomimetic polymer showing an adhesive peptide anchor and antifouling PEG polymer, (e) Example graft-from biomimetic polymer showing a surface bound biomimetic initiator and polymerized PEG polymer.
Chemical versatility and robustness of DOPA have recently been exploited in a number of ways to link antifouling polymers onto surfaces.15 Polymers such as monomethoxyterminated PEG conjugated with DOPA containing peptides combine the attractive antifouling features of PEG with an adhesive anchor allowing for convenient attachment to surfaces via the graft-to approach.16 Linear PEG polymers derivatized with 1–3 DOPA residues (Figure 2) were found to adsorb to titanium oxide (TiO2) and gold substrates,17 and conferred high resistance to serum components as measured by optical waveguide spectroscopy (OWLS) and spectroscopic ellipsometry (ELM). In-situ adsorption of serum revealed that the TiO2 control surface accumulated 250 ng/cm2 of serum protein while the surfaces modified with mPEG-DOPA3 only accumulated less than 1 ng/cm2 confirming the excellent nonfouling characteristics of PEG conjugated with DOPA.17 More sophisticated peptide anchors have also been developed; for example, a decapeptide analog of Mytilus edulis foot protein-1 was conjugated to PEG and used to confer resistance to cell attachment on gold surfaces (Figure 3).16 Peptide conjugated polymers are synthesized by solid phase methods in cases where an exact amino acid sequence is desired, or through polymerization of N-carboxyanhydride monomers via initiation from a monoamine functionalized polymer to create an oligomeric peptide anchor with a statistical distribution of amino acids. Recently, related catechol based adhesive anchors inspired by the biological iron chelator anachelin have been used in a similar way,18 further expanding the chemical diversity of anchoring groups available for attaching PEG onto surfaces.
Figure 3. Fibroblast cell attachment to untreated gold (upper left) and gold grafted with PEG derivatized with a mussel adhesive protein analog decapaptide Ala-Lys-Pro-Ser-Tyr-Hyp-Hyp-Thr-DOPA-Lys (lower right).
The graft-from approach has also been employed to create antifouling coatings through polymerization of PEG macromonomers from surface-bound initiators. For example, atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) has been employed to polymerize acrylate-functionalized PEG from a gold surface modified with an initiator functionalized selfassembled monolayer (SAM).19 The resulting grafted polymer coating, like most other graft-from coatings, was considerably thicker than graft-to coatings and exhibited excellent protein and cell fouling resistance. With respect to biomimetic anchors, a dopamine-based ATRP initiator was synthesized for preparation of antifouling coatings on metal oxides.20 In this case, the catechol functional group found in the side chain of DOPA was exploited for adsorption onto titanium oxide and stainless steel, from which polymerization of PEG macromonomers via ATRP yielded thick fouling resistant coatings.
A hybrid graft-from/graft-to approach with remarkable versatility in its ability to functionalize different materials with antifouling polymers was recently reported.21 The method involves two steps, the first relies on polymerization of dopamine hydrochloride (H8502) at alkaline pH to form a thin (50 nm or less) adherent polydopamine coating on the surface of virtually any material. The coating process utilizes a readily available reagent and can be applied to complex shaped objects via simple dip-coating. Formation of the polydopamine coating exploits reactions reminiscent to those occurring during solidification of mussel adhesive proteins and during formation of the biological pigment melanin. The resulting coating harbors latent reactivity toward nucleophiles, facilitating a second coating step involving covalent grafting of amine or thiol functionalized PEG onto the polydopamine coated surface (Figure 4). This new approach to modification of materials promises a convenient, cost-effective and versatile strategy to confer antifouling properties onto surfaces, does not require complicated surface preparation steps, and combines elements of both graft-from (Step 1) and graft-to (Step 2) approaches.
Figure 4. Facile grafting of antifouling polymers to material surfaces using a two-step approach. (a) Schematic of the surface grafting method, consisting of surface mediated polymerization of dopamine followed by graft-to of an amine or thiol functionalized PEG. Using this approach, antifouling grafted PEG coatings can be applied to many different surfaces, including inorganic and organic materials. (b) Normalized cell attachment before (black bars) and after (red bars) modification of glass, titanium, gold, silicon nitride, Teflon (PTFE), polyurethanes (PU1, PU2) and polystyrene (PS) with polydopamine and PEG-NH2.
Grafted PEG coatings have also been investigated for inhibiting attachment of marine organisms to surfaces.22-24 Several grafted polymer designs have been employed, including hyperbranched fluoropolymer-PEG composites,22 hydrophobic polymers with PEG side chains,23 and linear PEG.24 These studies have to date emphasized fouling of diatom (Navicula perminuta) and green algae (Ulva linza) species and show enhancement of antifouling performance with increasing PEG content and favorable performance compared to standard silicone fouling-release coatings. Silicone fouling-release coatings are currently used by the marine industry to facilitate hydrodynamic removal of biofouling agents but these agents are not completely effective against all marine fouling and do not work well on slow-moving vessels. With further development, PEG-based coatings may provide effective fouling performance in the marine environment.
In summary, grafted PEG coatings can provide effective resistance to fouling of surfaces by proteins, cells, bacteria and other biological organisms. Biologically inspired anchoring moieties offer convenient, versatile and robust approaches to linking PEG onto surfaces. PEG coatings can be used to control fouling of implantable medical device surfaces, contact lenses, surgical tools, biosensors, electrophoresis capillaries for bioseparations, and fouling-prone surfaces of water treatment facilities and ship hulls.

For what seems like the longest time, I've wanted to break into the Mandopop/Cantopop markets as a songwriter – or what HYR eloquently describes as the "Cheena" music market. I signed up with Touch Publishing with the late Ng Guan Seng for that exact purpose but for some reason it never worked out – probably my stubbornness of refusing to write songs specifically for the market, insisting that he convert my existing English songs.
Then, One Leg Kicking came along and there was even a Cheena version of My One & Only (with Mandarin lyrics by someone Murmur Music arranged – sorry but I really don't know who it was – and sung by Sharon Au) that didn't do anything. My feeling was that if my most commercial song didn't stand a chance then might as well give up.
But meeting HYR has of course, changed my thinking.
I asked HYR how I would go about presenting a new song to a Chinese lyricist and he gave me a few tips. But key to him was "commercial potential" – the hooks etc.
I mean, the man should know right?
… I've written a few that may be right but as I got a little nervy about sending HYR just any old crap and ruining my cred, I thought I better re-look at those tunes, fine tune and buff them up for the big audition… will keep you all posted of the outcome.
Is this what American Idol feels like…?

The Bruins and Trojans will go head-to-head Feb. 26, but residents won't need to look far for front row seats.
An earlier version of this story had the incorrect date for the concert, the wrong name for the venue and a missing digit for the phone number.
Fans can stay in Newport Beach for an a cappella sing-off between the USC SoCal VoCals and the UCLA Medleys, hosted by the Young Singers of Orange County between 4:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. at St. Mark Presbyterian Church, 2200 San Joaquin Hills Road.
The two universities will get a chance to show their stuff while working together to put on a workshop for the Young Singers of Orange County, a nonprofit children's choir. The children will also get to perform "Paradise" by Coldplay and "Everybody" by Ingrid Michaelson.
"I'm really excited to meet all the college people and sing with them," said 9-year-old Maggie Morton, a third-grade student at Klein School.

A lonely night, after a tiresome day,
Stretched my legs and sat to play,
Burned without the past's remorse,
Of time's bliss, into my soul,
The days ago, now brings in me
Feeling of memoirs, not guilt free!
Had I been good, happy would I now be,
But that never could, what's done is seen!
It's coming back,
I'm lost again!
How long would this last?
Please cease my pain!
Grief of sin's betrayal last longer,
Until your humaneness turns stronger,
And finally you rest in peace,
Until the doom's day call, you're free...!

The Aghanjar Mahadev Temple in Dharamshala
The Aghanjar Mahadev Temple Overview
The Aghanjar Mahadev Temple has a gorgeous location near the scenic Khaniyara village surrounded by forests, mountains and a charming stream that flows right next to it.
It is believed that once upon a time when Arjuna, one of the Pandavas from the Mahabharata, was on his way to the Kailash Mountains, Lord Shiva appeared in front of him at this spot and blessed him with the boon of victory over the Kauravas.

Sharp-eyed browsers at The London Library will spot a couple of small but not insignificant changes to the Library's shelfmarks – the system that details how books are categorised on its shelves.
For over one hundred years The London Library has grouped its books by subject and there are now over 2000 separate shelfmarks in its classification systems. Within Religion, there has long been a shelfmark for Holy Water, even though only a tiny handful of books have ever occupied it. Recently it was decided that the Holy Water collection – four books in total – was too fragile to occupy our general lending shelves and the books have been moved into our Special Collections to give extra protection. The books can still be accessed under consultation but can no longer be borrowed. In the process, the Holy Water shelfmark on our lending shelves will be gently retired.
At the same time, the Library has taken a broader view of Sex. Originally, this category – part of the Library's Science & Miscellaneous collection - involved a narrowly biological definition; but as the decades have rolled on, the collection has become more diverse and its 500 books now incorporate a much wider range of topics including gender identity and sexual orientation. Accordingly, the Library has recently made a subtle but significant change to the shelfmark – "Sex" will now be "Sex &c."
Dunia Garcia-Ontiveros, Head of Bibliographic Services, commented: "We adapt our shelfmark systems on an ongoing basis, making adjustments where needed to reflect the ways in which subjects themselves - and the ways in which they are studied - are changing. While Holy Water can now be better looked after in our special collection, we fully expect Sex &c. to be part of lending life at The London Library for the foreseeable future."

Foot care needs to be an essential part of your daily routine, since you want to ensure that you have a decreased risk of getting foot problems that might lead to the loss of a toe or a leg. Accordingly, taking care of your feet is of paramount importance. However, not everyone knows how to go about this in the proper manner, since it is easy to ignore something as commonly used as your feet. Given these conditions, you need to prepare yourself so that you can take care of your feet and ensure that they stay healthy strong for as long as you have use of them.
Ward against common injuries
There is a good possibility that you have been one of the estimated 25000 people a day who have suffered from a sprained ankle.Stepping on an uneven piece of pavement or even sharply turning your foot can cause this exceedingly common type of injury. Sprained ankles are graded by severity. In most cases, sprains clear up after an initial sharply painful few minutes; these are known as Grade I type sprains. More prolonged pain can be cleared up with the RICE method; rest, ice, compression and elevation. In the most severe cases however (Grade III), the injury may be caused by an ankle ligament tear and may result in permanent instability of the ankle.
Be more active
A more active lifestyle ensures better health for your feet, because this improves blood flow to the feet. Whichever activity you decide to engage in, simply make sure that you can keep on moving. Walking, dancing, swimming, and bike riding can be helpful in keeping your feet active. However, make sure that you wear proper athletic shoes that are designed for your specific activity and which give the necessary support.
Ensure proper treatment
If your feet begin to ache from increased or improper activity, you need to ensure proper treatment immediately. Don't delay when it comes to getting your feet checked by a specialist if you happen to be experiencing some form of pain or discomfort. You might even discover that you need achilles tear surgery if your feet are suffering from overuse. Accordingly, it is essential that you give your feet the proper treatment when it becomes necessary.
Keep your feet clean
Another simple but crucial step in taking care of your feet is to keep them clean. For this, you need to wash your feet every day and ensure that they are properly moisturized. Next, you also need to smooth any corns and calluses and keep your toenails trimmed. In addition to this, make sure that you change your socks often as well.

The International League, a Triple AAA minor professional league was the most successful. There were great teams Some are listed on the MiLB list of 100 top teams. The Toronto Maple Leaf team is listed five times.
It is no mystery as to who Jackie Robinson was sent to the Montreal Royal Triple AAA team to prepare him to join the Dodgers. Canadians can be proud to how the Robinson's were treated in Canada. Montreal embraced them and they lived for that difficult year in an atmosphere without the racism they experienced in the US. particularly in Florida, during the spring training. The Robinson's always spoke gratefully of their treatment in Montreal. Black players were not novel for the Royals team. They has had black players before, in fact there were two other black players on the team with Robinson.
There is a rich history of baseball in Canada. In particular, there is a history to learn about of wonderful black players who played on Canadian teams.

The smell of stale beer is the first hint that you're not entering the decorated halls of a converted gothic home on this historic campus, but housing for seniors that more resemble barns. Wobbly rails lead up to the second floor where stained carpets tell stories current residents' parents can't remember. The Mods have been temporarily permanent since 1975, and their withstanding decades of parties, concealed dogs, vomit, and tailgates have rendered their dented walls incapable of being torn down for they're protected by student traditions that would disturb even the coolest of parents.
In a dark study illuminated by rows of stain glass windows, stands a grand piano surrounded by cushy leather arm chairs. It has oak shelves for walls stuffed with ancient books filling the room with smells of old paper. At the center of the room are four large tables surrounded by chairs. Gasson Commons, a small library on the first floor of Gasson Hall, fits perfectly in the iconic gothic building and offers a warm reading retreat.
Dance Ensemble is composed of leggy women who are just as graceful up close as they are from the audience. The team hosts two shows every year and gives all proceeds to the Campus School, the special education school in Campion. The dancers are exceptionally trained in ballet, tap, jazz, and contemporary and perform jaw-dropping routines that never fail to include turn sequences where the dancers spin in sync, in perfect formation, balancing on one leg.
To work up an aggressive sweat, no class can beat BC-X. Taught by a slim and energetic student and her sturdy assistant, the class is made up of short routines to be repeated a number of times that would seem obscene to the physically inexperienced. The routines include rigorous ab sequences, jogging in place, and high-knee jumps all to the soundtrack of her encouraging words and calling out slackers for her assistant to go rescue.

Darling Diva ~ Are you Medusa? Because you make me Rock Hard!
A kitchen sink mani
I was introduced to the term "Kitchen Sink mani" earlier this year when I participated in the A to Z challenge. A kitchen sink mani is where all the nails are different. In January I made this mani for the challenge.
Today I want to make another one! I wanted to use "Are you Medusa? Because you make me Rock Hard!" along with a black and a white. AYMBYMMRH is from the Valentines Day Bad Pick Up Lines Collection from February 2015. It's a lovely lovely red with scattered holo effect. It's Carrie's husband Rick who named this collection.
Anyway, take a look at what I did:
The red is obviously Darling Diva's AYMBYMMRH, two easy coats.
The white is El Corazón's m&s-172.
The black I used is Golden Rose Matte #12.
I also used a white striper from Claire's.
I bought the little skull with headphones on Aliexpress and I love it. I think it's super cute. Originally I stamped on my pinkie, but I didn't like the result, so I covered it up with a red/black gradient :D
Seriously: I love it. I have got to do this more!!
Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Good
Drying time: Good
Finish: Scattered holo
Overall impression: Wow!
Overall impression: Wow!
Buy again: Yes

The Pulaski County Sheriff's Department (PCSD) said, in a press release Thursday afternoon, that they are searching for Timothy Colwell, 29, of Crocker. Later that day, they announced, via Facebook, that they had located Colwell in Iberia.
"Colwell is wanted in Pulaski County for Felony Fleeing, Resisting Arrest, Motor Vehicle Theft, and Burglary," the press release from PCSD said.
Colwell is described as dark haired with tattoos on his neck and chest, last seen in the Crocker area of U highway, wearing blue jeans and a black shirt with white and gold lettering on it.
PCSD reported that Colwell was traveling on foot, in an unknown direction, but may be headed to the Miller County area.
PCSD requests that, if any contact is made with Colwell or anyone has any information on his whereabouts to contact PCSD at 573-774-6196.
A Case.net search on Colwell revealed that he is currently charged with third degree assault, charges that were filed in September of 2017. The trial for the case is currently set to begin in Judge John Beger's court in Pulaski County on Wednesday, February 21. The Daily Guide will continue to follow this story as it develops.

On Sunday the team had an eventful day of going to the famous Chichi market. The hustle and bustle is both exciting and overwhelming, and for neophytes especially, it was something completely new and wonderful. After that, the team was able to worship along with our Guatemalan brothers and sisters at the Chulumal church. It was an interesting experience having the entire service translated sentence by sentence but regardless of the language barriers, we were all able to come together and worship.

RideCBR.com › Forums › RideCBR.com Member Clubhouse › George Zimmermann / Trayvon Martin Case
This topic contains 13 replies, has 5 voices, and was last updated by mactacular 6 years, 9 months ago.
04/27/12 at 2:04 pm #2904
What do you guys think of the Zimmermann/Martin case? I just read that Zimmermann recieved over $204,000 in donations so far.. How can you donate to Zimmermann when all the evidence shows that he was in the wrong and he didn't stand his ground but pursued the "suspect" with no legal ground, and with a gun.
What are people thinking sending him money?04/27/12 at 2:15 pm #2906
htownRegistered MemberRideCBR RegularPoints: 3,626
I'm not disagreeing with you On the fact that it is unbelievable that people are sending him money, but I'm not getting involved in this one because not all the facts are in and I cOmpletely disagree with the way Martin has been portrayed in this case(all of the pictures of him are from him being 13 or so) and enjoy having the right to protect myself04/27/12 at 2:18 pm #2907
I do as well. He was a well build young man, who played sports almost daily and is stronger than being portrayed. I am just beside myself that people will openly give money to him when not knowing all the facts. I have my own opinion because the stand your ground law doesn't cover if you're in a foot pursuit, with a gun, chasing someone down.
You should be able to protect yourself. If Trayvon came to the car and started to try and steal his car, or just jumped him on the street, then yes, but not after the police dispatcher comes on and said we don't need you to follow this kid, and then he continues to do so, and shoots him.04/27/12 at 2:23 pm #2908
htownRegistered MemberRideCBR RegularPoints: 3,626
Agree completely….do they have the stand your ground law in NC?04/27/12 at 2:36 pm #2910
For North Carolina:
On December 1, 2011, North Carolina's new law regarding the use of deadly force against an intruder took effect, extending the use of deadly force to motor vehicles and places of work. The law also eliminates the duty to retreat and provides protection from criminal and civil liability.[28]
§14-51.2. Home, workplace, and motor vehicle protection; presumption of fear of death or serious bodily harm.
(a) The following definitions apply in this section: (1) Home. – A building or conveyance of any kind, to include its curtilage, whether the building or conveyance is temporary or permanent, mobile or immobile, which has a roof over it, including a tent, and is designed as a temporary or permanent residence. (2) Law enforcement officer. – Any person employed or appointed as a full-time, part-time, or auxiliary law enforcement officer, correctional officer, probation officer, post-release supervision officer, or parole officer. (3) Motor vehicle. – As defined in G.S. 20-4.01(23). (4) Workplace. – A building or conveyance of any kind, whether the building or conveyance is temporary or permanent, mobile or immobile, which has a roof over it, including a tent, which is being used for commercial purposes.
If you actually read through that, you can't be pursuing a "suspect" that is unarmed and claim this for your defense. The law is meant for homes in general, like if someone busts through your door and you blow him away, you're okay, but not randomly on the street after following someone.
If Zimmermann followed me and asked me what I was doing, he'd get a middle finger and some flavorful comments too.04/27/12 at 3:03 pm #2918
atx600rrRegistered MemberRideCBR RegularPoints: 4,527
Im gonna have to google this one. In Tx I have the right to use deadly force to defend my home or car or myself anywhere if lawfully carring. The thing is you can't shoot someone in the back as at that point im pretty sure they are defenseless and the situation has desculated from deadly to possibly passive agressive in a use of force model.04/27/12 at 3:13 pm #2925
rriderRegistered MemberTraining WheelsPoints: 150
Even cops cant shoot you in the back. What would you do if your hood was being disrupted and you think you see one of the perps? Would you wait for the police who dont usually get there in time (not there fault) usually or would you confront the person? I dont think he had any reason to shoot but only he and God know what happened. I hope we never have to make that decision.04/27/12 at 4:04 pm #2933
I honestly think all evidence is pointing to Zimmermans favor…especially the unreleased evidence of stolen property being found in trayvon martins bedroom from some of the 11 previous break-ins in Zimmermans neighborhood that was 2 miles away from trayvons house…
just cause he had skittles and an arizona tea in his hand doesnt make him innocent…04/27/12 at 4:49 pm #2945
I want to see what the real evidence points to, not just what people say on the news.. They are all guessing. Official evidence won't be disclosed until the trial, and the prosecutor already said there is "a great deal of evidence" yet to be seen by the public which influenced her decision to have him arrested in the first place.
Big nail biter nation wide..04/27/12 at 4:52 pm #2947
I just hate how the media portrays stuff, why not show the most recent pictures of trayvon, and the most recent pictures of zimmerman? oh thats right…because that would be fair…zimmerman was wearing a suit and tie, and trayvon was shooting double birds showing the camera his "grill"04/27/12 at 4:59 pm #2949
Zimmermann also has a large police record, shouldn't have pursued him, especially not with a gun. But until we see all the evidence, we're all just speculating.. And trayvon was a young kid, I know kids that put pictures of them holding guns and pretending to smoke blunts in pictures on Facebook, but in real life they'd never do any of that.
I really hate mainstream media, I have to watch BBC to get an accurate account of what's going on. Don't even get me started on Fox (Faux) News lol04/27/12 at 5:06 pm #2953
"large police record" 2 arrests over 15 years ago…both misdemeanors..04/27/12 at 5:13 pm #2957
According to the reports i've seen and heard about, they were reduced to misdemeanors, but also had a few other infractions that weren't charged. It's just another point the prosecution can use, regardless of how long ago it was and regardless of what I think about it. I can't imagine what other evidence she's got that hasn't been released yet.
Guess i've gotta go read up a bit more on their histories.. (Another reason why the news sucks, same reports over and over again and if they are wrong, it doesn't matter.. it's reported anyway.)04/27/12 at 5:21 pm #2958
good thing according to the constitution, all of that has been expunged and none of it can be held against him ;)

APPLE VALLEY � A local fire department has rallied its troops to support another troop half-way around the word.
On Friday morning, the Apple Valley Fire Protection District headquarters was ground zero, as department members dropped off bags of supplies that will be packed up and sent to a military troop deep in Afghanistan.
Jason Nailon, who was appointed Fire Marshal of the district in July, said he joined the AdoptaPlatoon Soldier Support Effort project because he wanted his district to "support the brave men and women in uniform that are serving our country overseas."
Supplies headed to the platoon may include dry cereal, powdered milk, protein-based foods, nuts, nutrition bars, pop-top canned food, assorted toiletries for both genders, magazines, paper and writing instruments.
Founded in 1998, AdoptaPlatoon is a volunteer-based nonprofit group dedicated to serving deployed men and women, ensuring that they are not forgotten. The organization sends quality of life items to lift their morale.
Kim Lopez, a secretary with the AVFPD, watched as the pile of supplies grew throughout the morning.
"We saw lots of food come in, but the coolest thing I saw was the writing material so the troops could write home," said Lopez, who worked at Fort Irwin and whose husband was in the military. "They're gearing down over there, so it's nice that we're helping out."
Lopez said she and her boss, Rosie Garrison, took a platoon list earlier, and headed off to Target to do a little shopping for the troops.
The supplies will come at a perfect time, as many troops experience a lack of space due to camps being closed because of the withdraw in Afghanistan, as well as PX stores running out of supplies quicker because of increased personnel at the remaining camps that haven't been closed yet, according to the AdoptaPlatoon news release.
Once the supplies are delivered, the district will adopt another troop somewhere in the world.
In order to keep the troops safe and to guard their privacy, the platoon or unit's information is prohibited from being released to the public.
Supply restrictions include obscene articles, any matter depicting nudity or non-authorized political materials, bulk quantities of religious materials contrary to the Islamic faith and pork or pork by-products.
More information on the AdoptaPlatoon project can be found online at www.adoptaplatoon.org.

I am not your traditional photographer! I like to let the "clients" be who they are...kids! I work with the children from a playful approach interacting with them to capture their personality. I try to capture the little things that you love about your children, the way they giggle on the swing, or twirl their hair when deep in thought. These are the little moments which will be so memorable to look back on.
I am a mother of two young boys, therefore I understand that kids will need a break to have a snack or babies need a change. I want it to be a relaxed and fun environment for both the parents and the children. Welcome to my blog!

The United Arab Emirates based mobile satellite services provider that operates in 140 countries, Thuraya, has come up with an accessory for your iPhone 4, iPhone 4S or iPhone 5 that can turn your already awesome iPhone into a more awesome satellite phone. Wow! Awesome, right? They call it the SatSleeve. It is a sleeve into which you can insert your iPhone 4, iPhone 4S or iPhone 5 and your iPhone turns into a satellite phone. The sleeve connects your iPhone into the company's satellite network and lets you make calls. And the best part is that you can also access data using this service. This feature is very useful especially when you are in the middle of nowhere and the need to access data arises. SatSleeve can be your savior at such times.

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- The major U.S. financial stock indexes fell on Tuesday in a rocky session the sector's main market gauge.
The AMEX Securities Broker/Dealer Index $XBD opened lower, then rallied by afternoon, only to closed down 0.3 percent.
The Philadelphia Bank Sector Index $BKX dropped 0.5 percent.
FleetBoston Financial FBF, -9.00% will pay more than $59 million to settle charges its specialist unit engaged in improper trading at the New York Stock Exchange, the bank said in a regulatory filing.
FleetBoston, the parent of Fleet Specialists, said the Feb. 17 agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission and NYSE includes restitution and penalties for alleged improper trading between 1998 and 2003.
The settlement does not include civil actions against the unit. FleetBoston has agreed to be acquired by Charlotte, N.C.-based banking giant Bank of America BAC, +0.95%
Fleet shares rose a 14 cents to $45.09.
Shares of Jefferies Group JEF, +2.31% a component of the Amex Securities Broker/Dealer Index, closed off 4 cents at $37.45 after the regional brokerage said it plans to sell $300 million in senior notes, due in 2016. Jefferies said it expects to use the proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes.
In the banking sector, analysts at J.P. Morgan cut their rating Tuesday on British banking group HSBC HBC, -1.39% to "underweight" from "neutral" after the bank Monday missed estimates for 2003 results.
Although J.P. Morgan saw HSBC posting better-than-expected profits in Hong Kong and Europe, there was a weakness noted in the U.S. amid doubts about the company's consumer lending there.
Analysts cut their 2004 earnings per share estimate by 2.6 percent, to reflect expectations of higher loan-loss provisions and a lower margin at Household.
The shares fell 3.1 percent in U.S. trading, to $78.78.
Also Tuesday, HSBC Chairman John Bond told the German daily Handelsblatt that of German banks, only Deutsche Bank DB, +2.35% interests him as a possible partner.
"I ask myself why HSBC should enter a market where even the domestic banks can't achieve decent profits. I'll have big problems with shareholders if I want to take over a bank with only a single-digit percentage return on equity," Bond said.
Insurer Marsh & McLennan's MMC, +1.67% shares fell 13 cents, or 0.3 percent, to $48.126.
Early Tuesday the company said it had found that certain internal procedures at its Putnam mutual fund and 401(k) operations had not been correctly followed. The firm said the individuals responsible are no longer at the company.
Putnam says that because of errors in correcting certain mistakes, and other accounting errors, it owes one client's 401(k) plan $1.5 million, and owes another five funds' shareholders a total of $2.3 million.
It said the errors and restitution are not related to market-timing issues.

(Read Part 1 & Part 2.)
"We went in and started looking around at the different wigs that were in the display room. After picking out a couple of styles that we thought might suit me we ventured on in search of more selection. "Can I help you?" came out of no where it was a rough and rude sounding female voice. My mom replied "we were just looking." To which the voice replied, " well, I'm in the middle of a consultation; wait out front. That is my stock room!"
"Looking at each other my mom and I trudged back to the waiting room area like chastised school children. Our Mason DNA enacted (my mom's side) and we were ready to throw down and give some stink eye. I'm glad my mom had the wisdom to just give it a chance because the store owner where the disembodied voice came from, turned out to be an extremely nice and helpful person."
"I know I lucked out with my wig. The shop owner pulled a box down that had just come in two days before and hadn't even opened yet but she thought it might suit me. We tried on one of the selections and it didn't really look right. Then I tired on the wig fresh out of the box. It was perfect. From the side I looked my mom's sister, Cindy. I tried one more wig on, but both my mother and I knew in our hearts that the second wig was the one."
"So after taking some funny pictures in the wig shop, we left wig in hand."
Next we will jump ahead to chemo and the one day that Shannon cried. Then I am going to back track to the beginning of this tragedy. I think it will be fun to go back and forth from her present writing the journal and me telling you what really happened to Shannon and how she was diagnosed and what that entailed from the beginning.

I've shared a lot of stories/photos from my trip on the Alaska Marine Highway, but I have more!
When I decided to go to Alaska I wanted to bring my dogs with me. The original plan was to drive. After thinking about it and some sound advice from my dad, I decided to take the Alaska Marine Highway (Alaska Ferry) from Bellingham, Washington to Haines, Alaska and then drive the rest. The change in plans didn't result in my getting there any sooner, but it did limit stress on both my car and me. And, my dogs could still go.
The Rules
There are specific rules for taking dogs (or cats) on the Alaska Marine Highway.
- They must have a health certificate.
- They must stay in a car unless they are service animals in which case special documentation is required.
- The owner must clean up after them during deck calls.
- They can be walked on land during port calls.
Room to Live
I knew my dogs would be spending a lot of time in the car, so I made it quite comfortable for them. Since they are small dogs they had plenty of room to move around. If I were bringing a larger dog, I would do everything I could to make sure they had the room to walk, stand, and stretch out.
Deck Calls
On days that didn't include port calls, the only chance to see and take care of my dogs were deck calls. Deck calls occurred at 8:30 am, 2:30 pm, 8:30 pm, and 12:30 am (times were dependent on weather and crew preference). Each deck call is announced except the one at 12:30 am, which they call a silent deck call (you have to wake yourself up).
During deck calls anyone can get to their car, but it's mainly for pet owners. The car decks are open for 15 minutes at each deck call. It's not a lot of time to feed, water, and potty your dogs.
Deck calls are like being at a dog park without any grass. The MV Columbia (which is the vessel we took each way) has two car decks. We ended up on the upper deck going to Alaska and the lower deck coming home. There is a HUGE difference. The upper deck had very little room for the dogs and there happened to be an intimidating mastiff on board. I had a hard time finding a private location for my dogs. The lower deck has much more space to move around. I doubt there is the ability to select between the upper and lower car decks, but it couldn't hurt to ask. By the way, large vehicles will only fit on the lower deck.
Proudly, my dogs are well trained (especially my oldest). Going potty indoors was not something they wanted to do. Aker finally went potty after holding it for over 24 hours. Kinley never went on the car deck; he waited until our first port call which was over 36 hours. It's hard to believe, but it's not uncommon for dogs to hold their potty on the ferry. It's not necessarily a good thing, but they WILL survive.
In hindsight, I think the entire deck call process was more stressful for me than them.
Port Calls
The days with port calls were my favorite. I felt guilty leaving my dogs in the car for the entire ferry trip. On the days we were in port, I loved taking them out for a walk/potty break. Kinley had some anxiety about walking the narrow path, along the car ramp, to exit the ferry so I had to carry him off and on. Although, Aker has knee issues he was a trooper. I only had to carry both of them once…thank goodness because even though they are small breed dogs they are quite hefty.
Would I do it again?
I loved the ferry and even though I was a bit stressed about the well-being of my dogs I would take the ferry again. I'd probably try a couple of different things:
- Prior to leaving I would attempt to train them to the "Potty" command in hopes that they would be comfortable going no matter where we were.
- I would take along a small piece of artificial grass.

A minor girl was burnt alive in Uttar Pradesh's Fatehpur district on Saturday, allegedly after her father stopped intruders from plucking mangoes from his orchard. The teen's father, Shivbhushan, says on Wednesday a few neighbours were plucking mangoes from his orchard in the district's Kheshaan village, to which he objected.
On Saturday, when Shivbhushan was at the fields and everyone else in the family was away for a wedding, the neighbours allegedly entered his house, thrashed one of his daughters – who was alone at the time – and then set her on fire.

Defining cryptocurrencies has become a bit of a word game. Are they currencies? Are they property? Are they financial assets? Some governments may not be clear on what they want to call them, but they definitely know what the don't want to call them.
Israel is the latest currency that has declared Bitcoin a non-currency. Nadine Baudot-Trajtenberg, who is the deputy governor of the Bank of Israel, had this to say:
"Bitcoin and similar virtual currencies are not a currency, and are not considered foreign currency. The Bank of Israel's position is that they should be viewed as a financial asset, with all that entails."
She further explained her recent announcement at a recent finance committee meeting:
"[A currency] fulfills the functions ascribed to it in the economic literature, a unit of account, a means of payment, and stability that enables it serve as a store of value. None of these exist with Bitcoin or similar currencies, which are characterized by higher volatility, difficulty in making transactions, and a lack of certainty regarding the parties that stand behind it."
The bank has also received numerous complaints about the difficulties experienced by citizens wanting to buy virtual currencies from their traditional fiat money accounts. The deputy governor stated that because digital currency "may be used to launder money, finance crime and so forth",the banks could face compliance risks.
She went on to add that banks have a responsibility in this regard as some citizens may transfer fiat currency "to an exchange where virtual currencies are sold may later transfer the money anonymously to any unreliable party in Israel or abroad." Because the onus is on them, these individual banks are responsible for regulating this process, and not the central bank. She added:
"[A]s far as we know, no banking regulator anywhere in the world has issued guidelines to the banking system on how to act in relation to customers' activity in virtual currencies."
However, panel members at the meeting stated that authorities needed to move fast to develop crypto regulations. Panel chairperson, Moshe Gafni, had this to say:
"There seems to be a great possibility that they [cryptocurrencies] will become central to our financial lives."
In addition, Gafni has said that the central bank and regulatory bodies have a month to compile and submit a report on how to regulate the industry in the country.
Last month, Israel Securities Authority (ISA) chairman, Shmuel Hauser, proposed that crypto traders on the country's stock exchange should be banned.
Even though Israel is not interested in decentralized cryptos, they do want to be a part of the digital currency revolution, previously announcing plans to develop their own state-controlled digital shekel.

Starbucks introduces 5p cup charge to cut waste
Monday 8th January 2018
A charge on disposable coffee cups is to be imposed in Britain to address the problem that only a tiny proportion is recycled.
Starbucks will test the impact of a 5p charge in 20 to 25 London stores in a three-month trial starting next month, the first time any coffee chain has required customers to pay extra for a cup.

My Christmas top 5!
Christmas is all wrapped up for another year and the new year is well and truly upon us. I have a lot to be thankful for, especially my top 5 Christmas gifts!
At 5: Bubbles & Treats giftset.
ANYONE who knows me knows I love the little luxuries in life, so when I received this fab gift-set I was over the moon. Champagne and Ferrero Rochers are two of my favourite things which I greedily enjoyed in no time at all!
At 4: Mountain Warehouse furry headbands
I've been after a headband like this for a while now but didn't want to buy a cheap feeling one like the Topshop stock. These are meant for skiing and keep my ears so toasty. Plus they will come in handy next time I hit the slopes!
Anything that comes in such beautiful packaging must be fabulous. I fell in love as soon as I laid my eyes on these creations. The button details are perfect. I was even more amazed when I learned my Dad had picked them out for me. Impressed!
At 2: Absolutely EVERYTHING Benefit.
My family have clearly clicked onto to my adoration for the brand! The calendar was the perfect count down to Christmas and had some fantastic beauty products and cute accessories. I love the different sets and have had a fab few days trying out all the products, not to mention my skin feel fantastic!
At 1: Marc by Marc Jacobs Baker Watch
A good watch is always important, especially when your Iphone goes from 20% to zilch in next to no time! I spotted this gorgeous time piece online and fell in love. I'm kinda bored of the chain watches and just wanted something a bit different so this piece is perfect for me!
So there you have my top 5 gifts. I got lots of lovely presents from family and friends and I'm so grateful! I hope everyone enjoyed the festive period. I have one more present still to look forward to though: a weekend in London with my lovely other half! Squeeee!
