Casual Sophistication
This double-sided cigarette case uses elastic bands to hold cigarettes in place on both sides. Some of our customers requested this style because they say that the elastic is more durable than the spring-loaded clips used in most of our cases.
This is an 89 mm case for regular "king" cigarettes. It holds a full pack. It's also a good size for credit cards or business cards. We think the black metal makes this our most masculine looking case. Made in Germany.

This was the 5th time I have watched this production - and have always loved this show. However, I was so so disappointed with the performance, from whoever was playing Cosette, on Saturday 28th - awful singing. Having payed so much for the tickets and it being a special treat for my son I left feeling very let down.
Wow this deserves more than a 5. It was incredible x
My thanks go to the whole of the cast and the brilliant orchestra for an amazing show on Wednesday afternoon. I saw it for the first time two decades ago and it is still worthy of the standing ovations. Great singing from all, from our seats we heard every word. Such a rarity in the musicals of today. Well worth the tedious journey into London to experience!
My family and went to see Les Mis last Saturday.
This was a treat for my two girls who are leaving home to go to uni and the army in Sept.
the first half was as expected wonderful.
We had an ice cream and waited for the 2nd half, but the curtain stayed down.
this went on for about 50 mins.
Mr Shaw the manager came on stage to say there was a problem with the set.
He explained if any people want to leave they could have a refund.
obviously, anybody who stayed forgo their right to the offer.
He told us the cast were happy to carry on and do a concert version of the rest of the show.
Sadly many people seemed to take up the offer to go.
We stayed
We obviously stayed....how could anybody be so crass as to go?
The cast treated us to a fantastic second half, the set was immaterial.
They were wonderful, at the end they were treated to a very loud standing ovation.
We in turn were treated to applause from the cast, followed by Killian Donnelly (Jean Valjeean) coming to the front of the stage, went down on he's knees and bowed to us. in mutual thanks.
This was a very special experience and I thank everyone from Mr Shaw, he's staff and everybody involved with the show for an afternoon of theatrical magic.
Most people's visit to see a show in the West End is an experience that they will never forget.However our experience for my wife's 60 th birthday was unforgettable for different reasons.The performance of Les Mis on Saturday 1st July was a complete disaster.We were surprised that he theatre doors were late opening.As the crowds gathered around the door a gentleman pushed his way to the front and announced that there had been a technical error that would not allow the second part of the show to be performed as normal.The cast would simply sing the songs without the setting.We could either choose to watch this at no reduced cost,which was appalling or have a full refund.We chose the later.By this time it was to late to find another show.So the months of careful planning and costs of travel to London and two nights in a hotel were simply flushed down the pan in minutes.At least we had not come from as far away as Australia as some people that we spoke to.
Sometimes things go wrong.However it is how you respond to these events that is important.A garbled announcement 30 minutes before the start of an event is not adequate as I'm sure many people waiting to enter the theatre did not hear it.Any one booking a show should read the small print on their ticket and realise that the theatre companies will not take responsibility for costs to the theatre or any accommodation costs.It quite obvious that these sort of things have happened before,it is a great disappointment however that the Queens Theatre had no contingency plans for such an occurrence.
What a truly amazing outstanding show.I am still recovering by being pleasantly overwhelmed by its magic.The cast are dedicated and I believed every single word that I didn't want it to end! Could not keep the tears of emotion from falling but the tall man to my right was doing the same !!! Thank you am already looking to arrange my next visit x
I would enjoy this musical if I was looking at it for the 100 time but it was only the 5th time, the reason I only give it 4 out of 5 is it has lost some of its rawness over the years, I first saw it the year it opened 32 years ago, its a very raw story and the singers should project it as such. I still loved show when I saw it last week.
Not to be missed
absolutely stunning performance incredible cast with outstanding voices
thank you for a wonderful afternoon
My first ever theatre visit so looking forward to it. The performers sounded great but unfortunately our seats in the upper circle prevented us from seeing the majority of the performance. Second row from the front with others heads totally blocking our line of sight meant that we left very frustrated and my first visit somewhat tarnished. Very very disappointed.

Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) Has Concerns About The Barclays Center
The Barclays Center has been the talk of the town since Jay-Z christened it with eight shows back in September. Despite the buzz its been receiving, everyone isn't happy to see the new stadium.
In fact, some folks have been speaking out against it for years before it even had an official name. Brooklyn native Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def) is the latest to voice his economic concerns regarding the arena, in a poem called "On.center.stadium.status."
During an interview with New York Magazine's Vulture, Bey detailed his opposition stating: "I was on DeKalb Avenue and Flatbush, probably two months ago, and at the intersection I saw these not-quite-so-young men, in standing traffic, trying to sell bootleg Rolling Stones T-shirts. [Laughs] I thought, 'This is the trickle-down economic effect of Barclays in the neighborhood?' I didn't think of it as a positive."
Bey made it very clear that he's not bashing the stadium, but would like for the big-wigs behind it to "really be concerned with enriching the lives of people in that community."

Used with Arduino Mini to programme it or to add to it the USB port
You have a few options for connecting the board: the Mini USB Adapter, a regular Arduino board, or your own power supply and USB/Serial adapter.
Here is a photo showing the Arduino Mini connected to the Mini USB adapter. Notice that the reset pin is connected directly to +5V (the orange wire), without a pushbutton. Thus, to reset the Arduino Mini, you will need to unplug and reconnect the USB cable to the Mini USB Adapter, or manually move the orange wire connected to the reset pin from +5V to ground and back.
Here's a photo of the Arduino Mini connected to an Arduino NG. The NG has its ATmega8 removed and is being used for its USB connection, power source, and reset button. Thus, you can reset the Arduino Mini just by pressing the button on the NG.

My Photography Galleries have been cancelled
I wanted to let people know that effective immediately, I've cancelled my galleries/portfolio with Livebooks. I apologize if anyone gets dead links, but I'll have another site up and running within a week or so
Mister Lincoln added to the Garden Family
Last week I added a garden to front of the house, well, a nicer garden anyways. I thought I'd share some photos with you:)
Mister Lincoln is a rose from the Hybrid Tea family. Hybrid Teas are probably the most popular type of rose and are known for there long stems and beautiful blooms, but, they are also a challenge to grow because of a lack of disease resistance and susceptibility to cold temperatures.
Be sure to stay tuned, more pics to come from my garden family!

This month's Full Moon falls in the Leo/ Aquarius polarity; the Sun has just moved into zero degrees Leo, and the Moon into zero degrees Aquarius. All full moons are potent in terms of our psychic awareness, but this one is particularly so.
The "zero" degree in astrology is called a critical degree' (along with the 29th degree), which means that it is a particularly karmic and sensitive point. At the zero point, we are at a new beginning; everything is in a state of extreme potential. With this Full Moon emphasizing both Leo and Aquarius critical degrees, it is of utmost importance that we learn the karmic lessons of balancing Heart and Intellect; personal power with group mind; selfishness with selflessness.
Humanity is at a state of critical mass balancing lessons going back to Atlantis. This Aquarius/Leo polarity reminds us of the potential of the dawning Aquarian Age: the "revolutionizing" of human consciousness which began in the Age of Leo 13,000 years ago. The Great Lion Sphinx of Giza is a symbol of the Age of Leo. It is a major portal, or stargate, that connects us, not only to our Atlantean heritage, but to our possible futures.
The sign Aquarius is the "Water Bearer" of the zodiac, but what he pours is not liquid, but energy. We receive the "elixir of the gods" as electromagnetic frequency. Our brains get "amped up", and new neuronal pathways open up. This connection for the ancient Egyptian initiates was obvious. The brain and the heart must be connected (Leo and Aquarius) for enlightenment to occur. The Aquarian vessel contains the "water of life" of cosmic consciousness. The "great work" of true alchemy is to find the divine seed within us and water it with the light. We are already shifting into a New Age of Light, but the transmutation process is not an easy one. We are living through global revolutions, economic collapse; trials by fire, wind, and water; but the core of enlightened consciousness remains intact. We, humans, are responsible for the New Earth we are creating. Let us do it through Love, Wisdom and Cooperation.
The Aquarian Full Moon is an air sign (not water) which symbolizes intuition and perception. Aquarius is the sign of the progressive thinker, the bohemian artist, the political reformer… as well as the scientist, the astrologer, the computer whiz, and closet rebel. If you have the Moon in Aquarius, this is your personal full moon. Aquarians are usually very cool, calm and collected personalities, which make them very interesting to other people. They can also be great humanitarians working for a cause or philosophy, whether it is in the arts or sciences. (Famous Moon in Aquarius personalities: John Lennon, Russell Crowe, Lady Diana Spencer, JFK, Jr, Caroline Kennedy, Oprah Winfrey (Sun in Aquarius). Although they are "group minded" with a diverse array of friends, Aquarians often prefer to be alone. You can usually find them working alone, but in the midst of a crowded, bohemian coffee shop.
If you have any planets in early degrees of Leo or Aquarius in your birth chart, you will also be affected by this Full Moon. The Moon in Aquarius heightens our intuitive abilities. It's a great time for an astrology reading, reiki or energy work. You are more receptive to receiving (or giving) information on a body/mind/spirit level. Your inner radar is working at plus ten! Trust your inner voice at this time. We all have a soul purpose; an authentic Self, not what family, friends, or society have imprinted on us. Take a personal inventory; are you following your own path? We all have responsibilities and duties in life, but self expression does not necessarily have to be stifled in order to take care of them. Voicing your opinion and taking a stand on something that you believe in can make a difference in the world around you. (Just be sure to allow others the same privilege). Creativity comes in many forms. We don't all have to be successful artists, but volunteering your time and energy to a worthy cause is a rather unique way to share your talents with others. In this age of technology, our thoughts and ideas can be transmitted globally in a matter of seconds; it is important to remember that "with knowledge comes power AND responsibility". This Full Moon is a great time to set goals for the future and to expand your vision. It is a time to break free of old limiting beliefs and breathe new life into our cells. The "zero" degree of both the luminaries can set you free from all pre-conceived limiting beliefs. You are the Fool in the Tarot deck fearlessly stepping into new territory… make a wish upon a star tonight…..it just may come true!
Mercury Retrograde: Mercury is direct at 13 degrees Cancer with this Full Moon. Things which have remained stuck or delayed should move forward now, especially issues which arouse strong emotions. Interestingly enough, this conjoins the degree of the Sun sign of the USA, as well as the fixed star Sirius (denoting ambition, leadership, wealth and fires!)
Uranus Retrograde:
The ruling planet of this Full Moon in Aquarius is the planet Uranus. Uranus in the sign of Aries (action, idealism and war) moved into retrograde motion on July 18th and will remain so until the end of 2013. When a planet of this magnitude appears to shift direction, you can expect some major changes to take place. Since all four of the slow moving outer planets are now retrograde (Pluto, Neptune, Uranus and Saturn), a collective wave is redefining itself…one in which freedom vs. tyranny and order vs. chaos are brewing a new world order based on global transformation, spiritual vision, and scientific breakthroughs. Sound familiar? Uranus was discovered in 1781. The American Revolution was in full swing and the Continental Congress chartered the Bank of North America. The outer planets set the stage for major world events; global news, not local. Where they fall in an individual's birth chart usually reflect the mind-set of the society one is born into (for better or worse). Events constellating around them usually fall under the heading of "fate". These are collective planets spanning generations of influence; however, each individual does have a choice in the role he or she plays. That is the message of this Full Moon in Aquarius: "Know Thyself".
The asteroid Juno (the royal wife and queen) is in the sign of Aquarius in close aspect with the Full Moon. This denotes a renewed respect and an equality between masculine and feminine. The world is preparing for a royal birth to be announced in the UK any day now. On the evening of July 21st (one day before the full moon) the fixed star, Regulus, called " the most royal star in the heart of the Lion" will be exactly conjunct the planet Venus in the sign of Leo. Regulus signifies great power and leadership, but also sudden downfall. Does this portend a royal female, who will one day assume the throne of England? Whether this child is prince or princess, he or she will embody the energies of the planetary pictures around this full moon and, let us hope, become a more enlightened and compassionate leader for the New Age.
Grand Water Trine Mars, Saturn, and Neptune: The signature of this rare Grand Trine is positive energy (Mars) combines with idealism and spiritual vision (Neptune) to build a solid foundation for a better future (Saturn). It takes a lot of energy to remain optimistic in the face of challenges; however, this powerful trine is the super fuel that recharges our emotional batteries. When we align our hearts and wills in meditation, miracles can and do happen!
HISTORICALLY SPEAKING: Goddess Nut /Dendera Temple
In ancient Egypt, the sign Aquarius was associated with the Sky Goddess Nut, whose body arches over earth to form the vault of heaven and the heart of the Milky Way. In the hieroglyphic system, the sacred water jar was the symbol of the Goddess Nut, as well as the feminine principle. This key symbol, the sacred vessel, represents the womb of the Great Mother, the Grail of cosmic consciousness. Inside her chapel at Dendera Temple, the ancient Egyptian New Year was celebrated as the star Sirius rose in the heavens (circa July19- 23rd). It was a time of renewal, hope and optimism that the Great Goddess would bestow her blessings on the land through the abundance of the life-giving Nile. If Isis is the World Mother, then Nut is our Star Mother. Like the Star card in the Tarot deck, she gives us hope for the future. She is the harbinger of the New Age of Aquarius. A new world is being born.
Find a quiet space to meditate, light a white or violet candle (or both). Ask your guides to assist you in manifesting your Spiritual vision and Life Purpose….watch your dreams for answers. Use the energy of this Full Moon in Aquarius to help you redefine your "mission statement" for the future; and to aid in releasing what no longer serves your higher purpose. Breathe deeply and feel yourself connecting from the core of the planet to the heart of the Milky Way. Connect with the Sky Goddess Nut and feel a cosmic blue-white shaft of light beam from the center of the galaxy into your solar plexus igniting your "inner fire" and moving up to your Heart. This blue-white beams turns into a beautiful blue lotus and opens in your heart center. You are one with the Goddess Nut as she births the New Sun. Imagine your body as a chalice or grail holding the light of this new sun. Feel this light feeding and energizing you as you continue on your path.

Protesting electricity workers say the Queensland government will close scores of Ergon Energy outposts after the federal election.
About two dozen workers rallied outside a Gladstone school on Sunday as the state's ministers rolled in for a community cabinet meeting.
A committee set up by the state government on electricity reform has recommended depots with between eight and 15 employees be shut, and electricity services be provided by contractors or by staff at larger depots in emergency situations.
The Electrical Trades Union say 45 regional depots could go and more than 200 jobs could be lost.
State secretary Peter Simpson says the closures have been delayed because it would be too politically damaging for the federal coalition.
"We believed it was going to be rolled out months ago but now they've killed it," he said.
"We believe they were told to shut up until after the federal election.
"So we are trying to get on the front foot."
Reforms could include the closure of Ergon outposts in Bowen, Moranbah, Sarina, Proserpine, Blackwater, Moura, Tara and Wandoan.
The depot workers do everything from building and maintaining power lines to building sub stations and connecting homes.
Mr Simpson says if they're closed, regional communities will suffer more blackouts, which will last for longer.
The government says no decision has been made at this stage.

Hearing Aid Batteries and What You Need to Know
A small zinc-air battery powers the majority of today's hearing aids. The colored tab on one side of the battery keeps the battery inactive until you remove the tab. Once the sticker is removed from the back of the battery, oxygen in the air contacts the zinc within the battery, and the battery is "turned-on." Placing the sticker back on the battery will not prolong its life. Zinc-air batteries have a shelf life of up to three years when stored in a cool, dry environment. Storing zinc-air hearing aids in

New Jersey's Domed City
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Out with Xanadu, in with The American Dream.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and mall developer Triple Five laid out ambitious new plans Tuesday for the troubled Xanadu retail and entertainment project in the North Jersey Meadowlands.
It will be renamed "American Dream Meadowlands" and the developers say the $3.7 billion megamall will attract even more visitors than their own Mall of America near Minneapolis.
They want to be done by the fall of 2013 so it's ready for the Super Bowl that will be played in the New Meadowlands Stadium next door.
Christie and Triple Five said expanding the never-occupied Xanadu project to 3 million square feet will generate 9,000 construction jobs.
The state will help finance the project with $200 million in sales tax incentives.

Duck Typing, Generics and Templates…
Skunk Works has an article about how "The Future Won't Be Statically Typed".
There's been many criticisms of duck typing but usually those voicing them don't have an extensive experience of development using non statically typed languages or are Java fundamentalists.
Yeah. I agree with that. But I also think current dynamic languages are not the end of the story. Why is everybody thinking Types? Why not Interfaces? No, I don't mean Java's Interfaces — because they also rely on inheritance trees (or are the root of it). I think inheritance trees are the root of the problem.
Often it is argued, that Interfaces allow the same flexibility as duck typing. But that is not true. Consider the following scenario:
What do you do in Java if you use two libraries from two different vendors, who both make use of a type, defined by an interface, and also these two interfaces are exactly the same?
You either have to use generics, use a container/wrapper class of yourself with its own interface and inheritance tree, etc. etc.
Also generics are a problem: If I use something like
vector<vendorAInterface>, I can't use objects from vendor B's library in the vector.
What if you could just declare your own interface with that exact same behavior and the compiler could automatically detect that the behavior is the same?
That would allow kind of duck typing and also allow before runtime checking. It also would give IDEs autocompletion hints.
Everybody talks "Design by Contract" but actually what is actually done is "Design by Typename".
Do not specify what type your input objects should be — specify what they should be able to do.
One sidenote: C++ has duck typing: When you use template functions, you don't have to specify the type, the compiler will automatically use the type from the parameters and check whether they fulfill the function's needs.
Wonder why this doesn't work on classes.

"A good title should be like a good metaphor: It should intrigue without being too baffling or too obvious."
— Walker Percy, quoted in The Essential Guide to Getting Your Book Published by Eckstut and Sterry —
Last week I spoke with David Henry Sterry, one half of the Book Doctors team. We had a great chat and he was gracious, insightful and, what I appreciated most, candid. I read him my pitch, and he offered feedback.
His perspective was invaluable, because as with most things that we care about deeply, I was too close. My pitch lacks suspense (it's a memoir; you know I didn't die). Even in the first paragraph, which I thought really pulled the reader in, he said that I was telling and not showing – something I had heard him say to other writers during pitch events and somehow thought I was doing. He helped me see more clearly how I was narrating events rather than, as they like to say, painting word pictures. When thinking about a pitch as an entirely different genre of writing, I recognize not only how difficult it is but also how unpracticed I am.
As the movie trailer for a book, the pitch should begin with a close up, bringing the reader into the midst of the action, and then slowly pull back for greater perspective. Maybe, halfway through, a voice over can be added. One thing David said, that I found exceedingly helpful, was that my entire pitch is a voice over. I need to work on showing and not telling, adding suspense, and figuring out a way to let the reader know who the hero is, what he wants, and what is preventing him from getting it. Where is the yearning? What's at stake?! It's a whole new way of approaching the project.
One of the last things we discussed was the title. I have heard the Book Doctors say multiple times, at events and in their book, that a good title can sell a book (and a bad one can doom it). I was never excited about my working title, The Narrow Margin, but I did like it. It was inspired by a quote from a letter that William Maxwell wrote to Eudora Welty in 1953, in which he says, "The story makes me feel instead of just think how narrow the margin of safety is, for every one." Well that title is out, although a friend of mine who has read a draft suggested it as the title of the first section, and I dig that idea. So we'll see what happens.
The most fun advice I got in the title department was this: gather together a group of trusted friends who have read the book or at least know something about it, get a dry erase board or other note taking device to brainstorm keywords (the more search friendly the better), add booze, get title. Voilà!
It's supposed to be a group effort but I may have gone ahead and tried this by myself a time or two. Same thing, right?

Rutledge Comments on U.S. Supreme Court Obergefell v. Hodges Decision
June 26, 2015
LITTLE ROCK – Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge today released a statement in response to the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges. The Supreme Court ruled that same-sex couples have a right to marry in all 50 states.
"Although this decision does not reflect the will of Arkansas voters, we are a nation of laws, and the judicial system has an important role to play. I am disappointed that the justices have chosen to ignore the role of the States to define marriage. The justices have issued a decision, and that decision must be followed.
"We are continuing to review this landmark decision to make sure the full implications are understood and that implementation is consistent with the rule of law. I urge those seeking to marry to be respectful as the State seeks to follow this ruling. Moving forward, it is critically important that the rights of religious freedom be protected, and I am committed to doing so."

This week on The Amazing Race, father and son cancer survivors David and Connor O'Leary were forced to leave the competition in Vietnam due to injury.
Although David suffered a torn Achilles tendon during the second leg of The Amazing Race in Bora Bora, the 58-year old investment properties businessman continued to run the race with his son until he absolutely had to have surgery. It was an impressive showing for David and Connor who actually won a leg this season with Dave on crutches.
Unfortunately, when the race touched down in Vietnam this week, both David and Connor made the tough decision to leave The Amazing Race in order to capitalize on a seven day window for Dave to have surgery.
The next day, David and Connor gave The Deadbolt an exclusive update on the injury and how they felt about their time on The Amazing Race.
THE DEADBOLT: Dave, how's your leg doing now?
DAVID O'LEARY: It's coming. I came home and immediately had surgery. I went through physical therapy and I'm now recovering. Fortunately I went back on a bike and another sixty days I'll be able to run again. I feel like I'm making progress and hopefully I'll make a complete recovery.
THE DEADBOLT: Since you're both cancer survivors, how important was it to push through the pain?
DAVID: It was important. We hated to leave. If we hadn't heard from a doctor that there was a window in which I had to have surgery, we would've tried to stick it out a couple more legs. I mean, we knew we couldn't win the race. We weren't naive enough to believe that was a possibility. We were having so much fun that it was really a bummer to leave regardless of having an injury.
THE DEADBOLT: From the time the injury happened to the actual diagnosis, how did you both arrive at the decision to keep going? Did you go back and forth on it?
DAVID: We did. I got the first diagnosis in Bora Bora that the tendon was torn. It was really kind of gone. You could stick your finger up and go all the way to the ankle bone. At that point, I kind of thought we were done.
We went to Tahiti the next day and had a scan and they put me in the boot. Once they put me in the boot, I felt great. I thought, "Boy, I can keep going. If we can keep up on crutches, we ought to try and do the next leg." So, we did.
We thought we'd quit after New Zealand because we kind of knew we couldn't win. When we won that leg and the race kept going, we were like, "Hey, I guess we're going on to Bali."
THE DEADBOLT: Connor, what was your thought process after the injury occurred?
CONNOR O'LEARY: Honestly, I thought the plug was going to be pulled in Bora Bora after we saw the doctor and the extent of the injury. The one thing my mom said to me was to take care of my dad. So, I had to take care of him and do what I had to do.
I thought we were going to pull the plug but we got the boot on him and he kept chugging along. So, it was a fun four legs.
THE DEADBOLT: Did you guys think you'd be eliminated first, or did you know you'd probably have to make the decision yourselves?
CONNOR: You know, we wanted to go and win a few legs and see what we could do. I think it was our original intent to go until we were out. But once we got that news from the doctor, we realized it was serious and he had to get surgery. We didn't want to make the injury worse than it was by prolonging the surgery.
DAVID: When we got the Express Pass, we felt that we had a real advantage to win one leg, which proved to be true. After that, it was kind of all bets were off.
THE DEADBOLT: Dave, how do you feel now knowing you were at the top of the pack for most of the race?
DAVID: I still feel terrible, believe me. I guess if you're going to go out, you want to go out on top. But it felt so awful to have to leave. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done just because you have this experience with your son. Connor and I are best friends, we've done a lot together. But what are the odds you're ever going to be able to do The Amazing Race? It was really a hard decision to leave.
THE DEADBOLT: Do you guys regret staying in the race as long as you did?
CONNOR: No, not at all. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. Unfortunately, it was cut a little short. We definitely don't regret staying in as long as we did.
DAVID: We kind of regret not doing the leg in Vietnam after seeing it last night. We didn't know how long it would be since you don't know what's coming. But the fact that it was a one day leg it looks like, we probably should have tried to do it. But hindsight is 20/20, especially when you don't know what's coming.
THE DEADBOLT: Since you both had such a one-of-a-kind experience with the injury, was it still great to run the race even though you had to leave?
CONNOR: Oh yeah, I wouldn't trade it for the world. My dad got hurt, it was a bummer we had to leave, but it was one of the most fun things I've ever done in my life.
DAVID: I feel the same way. Certainly I didn't relish blowing my Achilles and my calf muscle. [laughs] Last night I was so depressed watching the show knowing we had to leave and we didn't get to go on to the next places they're going to. But while we were there, we had a great time.
THE DEADBOLT: Well, I'm glad it all worked out and you're doing well. I hope to see you guys in the future.
DAVID: We hope so, too.
How did you feel about David and Connor running The Amazing Race as long as they did? Do you think they should get a second chance?

BSPP Presidential Meeting 1996Unlocking the Future: Information Technology in Plant Pathology
Parallel session 8A: Interpreting information to produce knowledge
Building an information system to interpret diversity in Colletotrichum

A study of the genus Colletotrichum has concentrated both on diversity between different species and that within a single species, C. lindemuthianum. The information is held on two databases created in Microsoft Access. LARSCOLL is a description of nearly 1000 isolates of pathogenic fungi, mostly species of Colletotrichum, stored at Long Ashton Research Station (LARS). The collection has been built up over more than 20 years and contains isolates from many different crops worldwide. LARSCOLL holds information about the origin of the isolates, including all original supplier codes, many morphological and cultural characteristics, and for some isolates there are novel diagnostic features and rDNA sequences. The second database, COLLBEAN, is central to an EU-funded project "Improved control of bean anthracnose in Latin America and Africa". This database is devoted to information about the specific virulence of isolates of C. lindemuthianum causing bean anthracnose in Europe, Africa and Central and South America. In this database, which also records details of origin, emphasis is placed on recording the reactions of a differential set of bean cultivars to different isolates of the pathogen. The information has been compiled using similar methods in different laboratories and is being used to determine the number of different races and their distribution in all these countries. This information will help the selection of resistant germplasm appropriate to the different countries. The Access databases have also contributed greatly to taxonomic studies, as they allow ready comparison of isolates and selection of diagnostic criteria. Many errors in the diagnosis of disease and identification of these pathogens have been discovered and close relationships between isolates, previously considered as distinct species, have been discovered. New diagnostic morphological criteria have been found, and these are used routinely to rapidly confirm the identify the bean anthracnose isolates.
New knowledge about the taxonomy/diversity of Colletotrichum is essential if the biology
of different species is to be understood and if effective quarantine measures are to be enforced.
The wrong identification of the causal agent of lupin anthracnose in Europe, Australia and
America appears to have allowed the pathogen to by-pass established quarantine regulations. An
important conclusion from this work is that the powerful methods of handling, comparing and
distributing data are to be encouraged. However, when such methods are applied to plant disease
problems, it is essential that the
knowledge concerning the individual pathogens be correct. For anthracnose diseases, at least,
inaccurate taxonomic information remains a major deterrent to progress toward effective disease
control and there is an urgent need to increase the knowledge base before information is made
Keeping track of where pathogens are: Geographic Information
Philippe Blaise
Institute of Plant Sciences, Section Phytomedicine/Pathology, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Universittstr. 2, CH-8092 ETH-Zrich, Switzerland.
An important part of a scientist's work is to think of ways to represent information so that underlying processes can be better understood. This is specially important in the analysis of spatial data with which epidemiologists are faced as soon as they leave the two dimensional space-time-severity to consider dispersal and spread of pathogens. The range extends from restricted-scale studies such as analysis of patterns of spread of soil-borne pathogens to large-scale studies dealing with the spread of airborne pathogens that can travel over hundreds of kilometers. However, working with data that include a spatial component is difficult since quantification is not reduced to a single value. Being the main scientific community concerned with spatial data, geographers have developed already in the 1960s special tools called Geographical Information Systems (GIS), which are distinguished from other data management systems by their inherent ability to maintain spatial relationships of variables as well as their attributes. A GIS can be defined as a set of tools used to handle objects defined in terms of their position with respect to a coordinate system and their attributes that are unrelated to position (e.g. soil type, plant variety, disease incidence etc.). Although the use of GIS is well established in some fields like land-use, natural resources and environment management, landscape ecology and remote sensing, biological sciences only discovered these tools recently and applications in pest management are sparse. This may be due to the fact that GIS have been traditionally regarded as very high-tech, requiring vast hardware, software and data resources to render them useful. Such systems still do exist but fortunately, thanks to the increasing power of microcomputers, GIS are becoming a common tool on desktop computers, ready to use for plant pathologists. After a brief introduction in GIS, a short review of GIS applications in pest management will be presented, followed by a more detailed presentation of some case studies made in our institute with the help of GIS. The value of GIS in plant pathology will be examplified by spatial studies on:
- (1) the epidemic of canker of plane trees in
(2) a Phytophthora blight epidemic in the North-East of Switzerland
(3) a survey of the plant protection measures taken in apple orchards in the canton of Zrich.
Integrated information management: a multimedia system for crop protection
A. Sweetmore, C.Y.L. Schotman, Bin-Cheng Zhang, S.A. Rudgard and P.R. Scott
CAB International, Wallingford, Oxon OX10 8DE, UK.
Crop protection research has traditionally been a discipline-based activity; in contrast, crop protection practitioners, particularly farmers and those supporting them in small-scale, intercropped systems in developing countries, have long been taking a more holistic approach. This difference in outlook has led in many cases to a gulf between the activities of the research community and the needs of farmers and their advisers. The difficulty has been recognized by a number of national and international crop protection research institutes, who have tried to break down the barriers between traditional, discipline-based departments and build a more interdisciplinary structure.
The electronic Crop Protection Compendium, a multimedia tool supplied on CD-ROM, addresses this problem by giving the user immediate access to information on all of the component disciplines in a variety of formats. Elements of the system include text, images, geographic data and maps, bibliographic data, taxonomic information, statistical data, and diagnostic aids. Information is organized by pest species (including pathogens and weeds), countries and crops. In the first Module, with a focus on South-East Asia, southern China and the Pacific, approximately 1000 such items are covered in detail, with outline information on many thousands of other species. All these are interlinked in a powerful relational database structure. In addition, 'soft' hypertext-like links can be made spontaneously when the user needs them, wherever the system detects a match between text and database index terms. The software is designed with open architecture, allowing connections to be made to external systems and information resources, locally or over the Internet. Rapid access is thus available to a large bulk of information, coupled with the ability to make an infinite variety of connections within the system.
This will aid users to gain a greater understanding of the complex
interrelations within agronomic systems, and to take a more integrated
approach to crop management and crop protection. It provides a strong
generic background to the practical application of Integrated Pest
Management, by users with knowledge of the local context.
Interpreting information to produce knowledge: Where from
Adrian C Newton, "BSPP Web Manager"
Scottish Crop Research Institute, Invergowrie, Dundee DD2 5DA, Scotland, UK.
Every user comes into a network when trying to access information of any form. The objective of an information system is to provide comprehensive but easy-to-follow routes through the network to all points the user needs to access. The objective is not to impress the user with the size of the network and their location in it, as this will either confuse, bewilder or daunt. To access information about, for example, potato late blight (Phytophthora infestans), potential sources of information and resources of interest may be: books, scientific papers, bulletins, crop intelligence reports, conferences, published statistics and surveys, agrochemical control measures available, practical and anecdotal information from agricultural advisors, agricultural policy documents, current work being carried out on research grants, agricultural advisors, germplasm collections of potato, its wild relatives and P. infestans and its relatives etc., genetic maps or databases of host and pathogen, lists of scientists working in the field, research employment opportunities, and many others. There is therefore a need for a structured information system whereby such sources can be linked together in a logical and helpful format and such that providers of information can make it available in suitable formats.
A key component of such information systems is how user-friendly they are. For example, the list of requirements could be: a Windows-based package, "intuitive" system of use (as few bother to read manuals), rapidly set to the user's level of competence, rapid access to information so with facilities to update and store information locally whenever possible rather than relying upon slow internet connections, include self- training and automatic prompting, a user-friendly query interpreter, and the ability to handle query uncertainties. A key dimension which can be integrated where societies such as BSPP are involved is the inclusion of active researchers in whatever field is being considered. No information system can replace experience, and there is no satisfactory way of accessing anecdotal information or making the connections which only active researchers can make, and it is essential to involve people in the continuous development of information systems to maintain and develop their usefulness. Furthermore, once a coherent structure is in place many other suppliers of information will be encouraged to make their resources available in the most useful format.
One of the biggest problems in developing information networks will be compatibility and accessibility of information resources. The web interface will allow hitherto incompatible formats to be made accessible without having to access the software directly. The user need not know where the information is stored, what electronic format is used, or what software is being run to access it. The user will only see simple windows-type buttons or sliders to operate, lists to select from, or boxes to make entries in, all of which will be familiar to pc or Mac users. Options, preferences and permissions can therefore be tailored to users' requirements, allowing different levels of access for different needs.
In the past, BSPP has served the needs of its members by disseminating information in Plant Pathology, in BSPP News, in books and at conferences. It has also represented plant pathologists on national and international committees etc. BSPP will continue to do these things, but it has also developed some new ways: it has established a web site for information about BSPP and its activities, improved availability of its own hard-copy publications in electronic format on the web, and developed a new electronic publication (Molecular Plant Pathology On-Line); it has provided on-line conference information and booking facilities including availability of pre-conference material, abstracts (such as this) and other notes, established a searchable and updatable database of members' interests, and provided a list of pathology-related internet resources.
There is a clear role for a professional society such as BSPP in initiating and co-ordinating such developments, to serve the interests of its members and to involve them actively in the process, linking and associating information from different sources and at different levels. We should be providing rapid and mutually beneficial channels of communication, discussion, interpretation and data dissemination for our members at whatever is the required level of information technology access or expertise. I welcome discussion of these concepts, so please contribute to BSPPLIST and I will try to encompass any useful ideas in my paper on 19 December.

- The Demon Android Mira arrives in Age 790 and places a Distorted Time Egg (one of Towa's failed attempts to recreate Tokitoki's Time Eggs artificially) near Majin Buu's House and yells at Buu when he enquires what he is doing before leaving. As a result, Majin Buu's House is involved in a large yet stable time rift anomaly which appears in Conton City. Chronoa sends Time Patrollers to Majin Buu's House to investigate the cause. The Majin Future Warrior is sent to investigate and they witness Majin Buu reading Bob & Margaret unaware of the rift surrounding his home and is visited by his friend Mr. Satan who is helping Majin Buu get settled. Majin Buu asks Mr. Satan about a word in the book he doesn't understand and Mr. Satan is shocked that Buu is reading such a book and asks him where he got it, causing Buu to reveal he got it from Mr. Satan's room. Mr. Satan tries in vain to get Buu to return the book, but gives up when Buu refuses and goes to fix dinner for his friend. The Future Warrior is called off for another assignment, but is later asked by Chronoa to return. The Future Warrior meets with Buu, who inspired by Mr. Satan's relationship with his daughter Videl, decides he wants a family of his own and enlists the Future Warrior in providing him with food to fuel his fission technique. As a result, in this timeline Miss Buu is not created and Majin Buu instead uses fission to create several children. Sensing the dormant power lying within the Majin Warrior, he assists them in unlocking their Purification Awoken Skill allowing them to access their Pure Majin form. He also shows them the Distorted Time Egg that the mysterious "pale man" had left near his home and gives it to the Warrior after they convince him not to eat it. After all the eggs are collected from the 5 rifts in Conton City, Chronoa decides to allow the rifts to remain in Conton City as they are stable and pose little threat. As a result, Majin Buu lives peacefully with his children and is occasionally visited by his friend the Future Warrior.

Germ Season – Cold remedies
With the wonderfully changing seasons and the cold that Winter brings with it, people are of course getting poorly creating what we know as "Cold and flu season". Even if you don't catch anything you may find yourself feeling a bit glum and under the weather.
I, myself have become an attractive host for the common cold and for the past few days have been a little knocked out. Headaches, temperature, nausea, stuffed nose, tickly throat and plenty of grunge are all lovely additions I'm experiencing. So, what have I been doing for my cold? What methods in my experience work the best?
Staying Hydrated
By far the best remedy for colds and flu in my opinion. I usually drink around 2-3 liters of water a day but since coming down with this cold I've found myself guzzling 4-5 liters if not more. I'm exceptionally thirsty as my body is working overtime fighting this off.
So, if you feel thirsty make sure you're drinking plenty, especially more than usual. Whether it's water, juice, tea, coffee. No matter what it is, fill up. Soups, tea, and coffees are my personal favorite to accompany alongside water. Hot liquids are soothing for colds and can help calm that annoying tickly throat or a chesty cough.
Plenty of rest
Now, most of us know how much rest is good for you no matter what you have wrong with you. Sleeping allows your body to work overtime in recovery mode. However, when you have a cold or flu you may find it's not the easiest of tasks.
The past couple of nights I have woken frequently during the night so last night I went to bed early in hopes of getting some much need rest. Nope, my cold, like a little devil on my shoulder decided that this wasn't going to happen. Poking my nose and throat with his little pitchfork everytime I started dosing off. My night was filled with nauseous episodes from my lovely gunge and inability to breathe through my nostrils. I ended up with around 4 hours of sleep 😦
Unfortatunely there isn't much you can do other than drinking hot liquids, medicine before you go to bed (just avoid ones that contain caffeine) and try to go to bed early and take naps in the day if you can. Once I'm awake that's it for the day so no naps for me but hopefully you may have better luck than me.
Medicines and plenty of them
Whether its cough syrup, pills, cough drops. Make sure you fill up to try and mask your cold symptoms which will allow you to get through your day as relatively normal. My usual go to's are generic cough syrups as I always struggle with tickly coughs and then cough sweets on top of that.
When I say plenty of them. Just make sure you don't overdose but you keep topped up on them. Check all the packaging to see what you can have and when you can have it. Writing it down will help if your brain is fogged with your illness.
Eat your greens
One of the biggest must haves for any illness is to try and eat as healthy as you can. Crap food i.e. junk food will only make you feel worse. So, whether it's a vegetable-rich soup with a couple of slices of brown bread or just some hummus and snacks.
Even if you don't feel hungry try to make sure you're eating a balanced diet to supply your body with the nutrients it needs during this time.
Herbal Remedies
This is an obvious one. If you don't want to be fully dosed with cold and flu remedies constantly then you can seek the natural healing abilities of herbal alternatives. Ginger and lemon drinks. Salt or apple cider vinegar to gargle for gunge.
There are plenty of options you just need to do your research.
These are my main four ways of getting rid of that nasty illness quicker. I keep to them like a rule book whenever I come down with a nasty illness. Do you have any personal recommendations that work wonders for you? Let me know!
Happy cold season!

Rotorua is an adventure playground with a plethora of activities to enjoy and some of nature's most fascinating gems.
With a burgeoning foodie scene -fine dining or markets, delicious coffee or espresso beer stout, steambox or hangi - Rotorua will surprise those who take time to uncover its secrets.
Whether it's an inviting hotel, luxury lodge, lake-side bach, charming motel, or camping under the stars, you'll find the perfect place to stay in Rotorua.
Characterized by strong Maori roots and a geothermal landscape, Rotorua is the birthplace of New Zealand tourism. The town offers many opportunities where you can experience its unique culture, as well as activities that will satisfy your desire for adventure.
The famous romantic legend about Hinemoa and Tutanekai originated from Lake Rotorua. The legend was also turned into a traditional New Zealand love song called Pokarekare Ana.
A harmonizing energy flows in Rotorua. Bring even more happiness to your life by charging your energy and power in Rotorua.
The below Energy Points have been categorised by Souei Hasegawa, a Happy Fortune Consultant and Cosmological and Natural Phenomenon Specialist.
Since childhood, Hasegawa has had innate spiritual insights. She is well-versed in energy waves, spiritual, healing, and feng shui, and is an advocate of the power of love and appreciation. Through her lifework of counselling, Hasegawa has been changing people's consciousness and energy to enrich their lives and lead them to happiness. Hasegawa is popular among people of all ages and backgrounds for her ability to convert people's concerns into a positive flow and bring happiness to their lives.
A spiritual energy point that will help you find true love. There are few places in our world that have such powerful energy. The Island of Hawaiʻi is one of them. Mokoia Island is another.There is a feminine, motherly spirit, the Matuatonga found here. It has a strong femininity, and provides the power of affection and gentle love, healing all those who the visit the island.
Hinemoa's Pool water has the power to bring kindness, thoughtfulness and love, this in turn connects people. This can help ensure the prosperity of bonds between married and unmarried couples alike. Rubbing the problem areas of your body with the hot spring water on your left hand has a healing effect.
Offering a prayer to Matuatonga can help with your love life and blessings of children.
The energy found here has the power to clear away the congested negative energy in women. The area's power can be further absorbed by taking a stroll while listening intently to the sound of the falls. The power here can cleanse those who have broken hearts, or those who have interpersonal or love problems.
Close your eyes, and take a deep breath. The healing sound of the falls should refresh you with the power to rejuvenate. This place also has the power to cut bad ties and bring new ones, or attract newfound love. Taking a portrait photo with the falls in the background can also increase your fortune.
Make sure to visit in the morning. Take a bottle of water with you, and enjoy drinking it while looking at the falls.
The entire area of Hell's Gate is a massive power point, so it is good to take a stroll around the park. It will not only be beneficial for your health and purification of your mind and body, but also for your fortunes in money and finance. Kakahi Falls is one of the strongest healing power spots that can be found in New Zealand, with its water full of healing and purifying powers.
Drinking manuka tea here is also recommended. Getting a traditional Maori massage will also help recharge your power. Five energy attributes (wood, fire, earth, gold, water) can be absorbed here, so just a simple visit could lead you to better fortunes.
After a stroll around the area, enter the mud pool and sulfurous hot spring. This should bring you better health.
Forest spirits live here. The energy point is with the water that leads to the Green Lake. There are spirits in certain specific areas. There is strong energy flowing on the red track.
The lookout on the green track has an area which can increase your personal development. Try thinking about your ideal you in your head while looking at the breathtaking scenery. The place helps clear away bad luck while bringing fortune for meeting new people as well as developing your life. (Refer to the route map at the Redwood Forest Park Information Centre. They also offer a pamphlet of the available walking paths.)
I recommend you take a stroll in the forest in the morning as it will help purify the fourth chakra and the wave within.
It is a place where the indigenous spirits rest and protect the land, even before Maori people started living around the area. The source of the power is from the trees and lakes, and they have been carefully protected since their antiquity. The neutral power of this lake purifies the energy of our deepest soul, bringing light to your life to show you who you really are.
The key to absorbing the power here is to avoid any negative thoughts and stay neutral during your visit. Take a drive nearby, or take a leisurely stroll while enjoying the serene view of the lake. It is an area with a strong wave and energy flow.
Keep your mind in a neutral state and take nine deep breaths to absorb the energy here.
This lake has a strong water energy in a spiral shape that reminds you of a Maori symbol. You can absorb enriching power essential for life here. The edge of Lake Tarawera is a healing point that has the power to heal any psychological strain. Touch the water of the lake with your hands or your feet, or take a deep breath by the lakeside.
Smile and enjoy the day. Gazing out over the lakes from one of the cafes by the lakeside is helpful for absorbing power.
There is a strong power right from the entrance of the park, and it is a power spot in terms of feng shui, with a lot of force gathered in the area. The place also symbolizes the 12 gods of each Maori tribe, meaning that this area combines the energy of each of these tribes. It is a special place where you can communicate with spirits. This can be said especially near the kiwi house, and a strong flow of force can be felt also throughout the meandering footpath. Watching the river flow and the hot-spring falls from the middle of the bridge near the geyser will help get rid of any misfortune.
By watching the geyser up close, your wave movement will improve as well as your fortune. One can feel a strong sense of energy towards the back of the geyser, where it feels as though it is being protected by the energy of the gods of the 12 tribes.
Watch the geyser near the river. The wave in you will rise, leading to increased fortune.
Waimangu Volcanic Valley has the power that increases your energy and helps you find and realise your purpose in life. In the Inferno Crater lies a feminine spirit, which has the power to make women beautiful both on the inside and outside. The spirit also has the power to cleanse away any stress.
It is also worthwhile to visit when you want to reflect on yourself. Try and imagine the way you want to become while you are there.The hot spring here is very powerful, and has the ability to cut off any misfortune. There is a lot of energy collected from the surrounding valleys and mountains. Your fortune could shift towards the positive by making a visit.
Touch and taste the spring water.
There are other great energy points in Rotorua apart from the eight that I've introduced. There is a variety of energy charge points near Lake Rotorua. Items that you can get in Rotorua can also bring good fortune.
Improve your chances for romance at the rose gardens.
This will help energize your love power and improve your romance. It is highly recommended for people who are longing for someone, as well as married and unmarried couples, and those who want to fulfill their love wishes.
Gazing out over the lake at night or dipping into a spa while looking up at the stars might help increase the chance of meeting your next love. The cafes situated by the lakeside are also a great source of energy. To increase your love chances, enjoy herb tea while facing the lake after 2pm in the afternoon.
The fish hook design of the Maori pounamu carvings is a symbol of prosperity and positive energy, and it is believed to bring good fortune. You can get more information on Maori pounamu stone at Mountain Jade, Rotorua's jade specialist.
Try wearing items with a sheep motif. These have the power to lead to fulfilling relationships, improved friendships, and more broadly connecting with people.

Forests represent an important carbon sink that partially offsets rising levels of atmospheric CO2 (Goodale et al, 2002). Using radiocarbon measurements we assessed the age of CO2 respired from soils, tree trunks, and the whole forest canopy, to see whether any of these sources emitted older, stored carbon. Can "bomb" carbon from soils or tree trunks be detected in canopy CO2? Methodologies used were collecting tree trunk samples of 14CO2, subsurface samples were used to partition soil 14CO2 production by depth, and flask air samples of 14CO2 collected at 45ft in the atmosphere. Results presented that soil 14CO2 is modern (post-bomb) throughout the soil and . canopy 14CO2 was highly variable, and there was no obvious contributions of old-C from soil or trees. In conclusion, the 14CO2 emitted from the soil appears to be young. Future research may include more measurements of respired CO2 from tree trunks, including a larger variety of species.

"Anxiety is like having someone hold your head under the water while you try frantically to surface." Grade 8 Student
Students know themselves best. We just need to make a point of creating a safe environment condusive to dialogue so they can share their knowledge. A few weeks ago, I asked some of my students who I know struggle with anxiety if they would be interested in helping me better understand what it is like to be them. Final exams were coming up and I wanted help them manage the stress that they feel around this time of year.
What started out as an invitation to have lunch together and chat, turned into a series of lunchtime meetings characterized by trust, openess, candour, empathy, and to be honest, a few tears. For four lunchhours, I just sat back and listened. I asked a few questions, but I let my students take the lead. Pretty soon, they were grabbing big sheets of chart paper and drawing out their ideas. Brainstorming ways to describe how they feel when, as they put it, "the world would come crashing down on their shoulders". They soon came to realize that they knew a great deal about anxiety. They were experts in themselves and they were ready to share their knowledge.
Working together with minimal guidance from myself, my three students built a TED-Ed Lesson on anxiety. Using the extremely intuitive and simple Adobe Spark Video tool, they wrote and created a short video outlining what anxiety is, briefly outlined some background knowledge for the viewer, and presented a host of strategies they felt were important for people with anxiety to know about.
Anxiety: Making Peace with Your Enemy for your own needs.
When you are done, please take a moment to think about how we need to let our students take the lead. Their experiences are powerful, their wisdom profound, and their potential is great.
Let's celebrate their LearnAbilities. Afterall, you never know what kids can do until you let them surprise themselves.

Hey everyone – happy first day of summer to you all!
You may have noticed I do not have a set schedule for blog posts. I know there are some people who only post on certain days whether it is on their blog or YouTube channel but unless I get a lot of negative feedback about not having a schedule for blog posts I would like to avoid this for now. If anyone has any thoughts please leave a comment or send me an e-mail.
With that out of the way I would like to thank everyone who has been reading and following the blog – this morning when I signed on I was informed that I have gotten 50 likes! I hope you will keep checking back. The list of future blog posts grows daily and I am happy to take requests and suggestions! So again, thank you!
This morning over breakfast I was trying to decide on today's blog post, that's when Murray jumped up on the couch beside me and rested her head on my shoulder. Knowing that Murray will be a source of inspiration for many future blog posts I decided to do a "Meet Murray" post.
Don't let the name "Murray" fool you, Murray is actually a girl. I was not responsible for naming her! Blame Tom! Murray is a three year old golden retriever. I am convinced that there is something else in there, too. We have asked a number of people (dog sitters, vets, groomers, etc…) for their opinion. To my surprise, many of these individuals insist that she is all golden. One vet suggested that there is a little bit of border collie in there. Breed is the least of my concern – Murray is a fantastic dog. She is full of character and a constant source of entertainment.
Unsure of how to properly introduce Murray on the blog (I thought about a video, but I am putting videos off a little longer) I thought eight facts about her would do. As crazy as this may sound, if there is ever anything you would like to know about Murray, just ask. For now, let's get to the facts about Murray:
(1) Murray was the runt of the litter. When she came home at nine-weeks-old she was still extremely tiny. On a number of occasions people actually asked me if I starved my dog!
(2) When Murray gets a new stuffed toy she will quickly destroy it, but once all the stuffing has been removed she is extremely gentle.
(3) Murray is approximately 65lbs and according to the vet she should lose a couple of pounds. I'm working on it!
(4) At times Murray can curl up in the smallest ball but she can easily sprawl out and take over the bed.
(5) Yes, Murray sleeps in our bed with us. She is a cuddle-bug.
(6) Murray absolutely loves to be bathed! If you can't find Murray, check the bath tub!
(7) When we let Murray off leash at the dog park she will run in a small circle for thirty seconds to a minute before doing anything else.
(8) She loves water, but she is not a graceful swimmer. If you are swimming near Murray, be prepared to get splashed.
I guess it is time to stop writing about Murray and take her out for a walk.
Thanks for reading and have a great day. Be sure to check back soon – I don't know when I will be posting again. It may be today, it may be this weekend or it may be as late as Monday!

The Biological Standard of Living in Europe and America, 1700-1900 : Studies in Anthropometric History Hardback
by John Komlos
Part of the Variorum Collected Studies series
One can think of the average height reached at a particular age by individuals as the historical record of their nutritional experience. Medical research has confirmed that nutritional status - and thus physical stature - is related to food consumption and therefore to family income, and therefore to wages and to prices and therefore to the standard of living. Thus, height can be used as a proxy for these economic variables, even if it is also affected by the population's degree of urbanization and disease experience. Why should we be interested in this line of research?
For example, anthropometric research can illuminate the well-being of some members of a society: women, children, aristocrats, subsistence farmers, and slaves, for whom market wages are seldom available. In addition, it has been shown that the biological standard of living can diverge from conventional indicators of well-being during the early stages of industrialization. The essays in this volume explore the well-being of diverse populations in Europe and America in the 18th and 19th centuries. Trends and cycles in height are explored among slaves, indentured servants, students in the West Point Military Academy, in the A0/00cole Polytechnique (Paris), in The Citadel (Charleston, South Carolina), Carlschule (Stuttgart) as well as in the British and in the Austrian Army.

Cooktop Cove: How to make lasagna stuffed peppers
By Emily Monaco
This delicious recipe combines two Italian-American comfort food classics: stuffed peppers and lasagna. Bell peppers are stuffed with a cheesy combo of ricotta and mozzarella along with a favorite pasta sauce. Rich and flavorful, these stuffed peppers will soon become a family classic.
But the best part may well be how crowd-pleasing this recipe is. Devoid of noodles, it's gluten-free. In addition, although you could easily sub in your favorite jarred bolognese sauce for the marinara, the recipe is vegetarian, too. Feel free to prep these ahead and store them in the fridge: You can bake them just before serving for a no-fuss dinner.
Lasagna Stuffed Peppers
10 minutes
50 minutes
1 hour
3 bell peppers, halved lengthwise, seeds and membranes removed
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 egg
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 cups marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place the pepper halves on it, cut-side up. Bake for 20 minutes.
Combine the ricotta, egg and Italian seasoning in a bowl and stir until well-combined.
Place a heaping tablespoon of the ricotta mixture inside each pepper. Top with two heaping tablespoons of tomato sauce and finish with a heaping tablespoon of mozzarella.
Return the peppers to the oven and bake for an additional 25 minutes, until bubbly on top.
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and bake for 5 more minutes, until golden brown.

Medical Symptoms Associated With Mold Exposure
It is a fact that molds produce allergens and irritants that can cause exposed individuals to experience symptoms of hay fever i.e. sneezing, runny nose, skin rashes, irritated eyes as well as nose, throat and lung ailments.
Sufficient epidemiological evidence is available from studies conducted in different countries and under different climatic conditions to show that the occupants of damp or moldy buildings, both houses and public buildings, are at increased risk of respiratory symptoms, respiratory infections and exacerbation of asthma. Some evidence suggests increased risks of allergic rhinitis and asthma. –2009 World Health Organization
Many toxic molds produce poisonous substances called mycotoxins. These toxins interfere with cell structures and processes, and have the potential to cause serious health issues. Their effects on the human body have been documented using controlled conditions in a laboratory. Mycotoxins have been proven to be present indoors with victims suffering from:
- pulmonary hemorrhage or pulmonary hemosiderosis (primarily in infants)
- headaches and other flu-like symptoms
- nose bleeds
- immune system suppression (resulting in increased numbers of infections)
- hair loss
- chronic fatigue
- psychological depression
- diarrhea
- sore throats
- dermatitis
Other symptoms that have been associated with mold:
- "burning" eyes
- blurred vision
- respiratory illness
- chest pains
- chest tightness
- shortness of breath
- wheezing
- dry cough
- nasal congestion
- aggravated asthma
- cognitive disorder
Below are some of the health effects you may experience when exposed to indoor air pollution produced by mold:
- Acute Headaches
- Fatigue
- Eye, nose & throat irritation
- Sinus congestion
- Itchy skin
- Nausea
- Dizziness
- Shortness of breath
- Wheezing & coughing
- Digestive problems
- Confusion
- Loss of coordination
- Severe allergic reactions
- Asthma exacerbation
- Liver damage
- Kidney damage
- Central nervous system damage

Yiwen Li, Rong Wen; ERG preservation by intravitreal injected recombinant mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor(MANF) in rd10 mice. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2015;56(7 ):5405.
Download citation file:
© ARVO (1962-2015); The Authors (2016-present)
Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) is a neurotrophic factor first identified from the conditional medium of a rat type-1 astrocyte cell line, the ventral mesencephalic cell line 1 (VMCL1). We have shown previously that recombinant human MANF protects photoreceptors in a retinal degeneration rat model carrying the S334ter rhodopsin mutation. In the present work, we examined the effect of MANF on the electrophysiolocal activities of retinal cells in the rd10 mice, a retinal degeneration model carrying the Pde6brd10 mutation.
The rd10 mice were kept at ~50 lx 12:12 light:dark cycle. Recombinant human MANF was expressed in E. coli and purified. At PD18 (postnatal day 18), MANF (2 µg in 1 µl) was intravitreally injected to the right eyes of rd10 mice, and the left eyes were injected with PBS (phosphate buffered saline) as controls. Scotopic ERG responses were recorded 10 days later using an LKC UTAS system. Dark-adapted animals were anesthetized with a mixture of ketamin and xylazine. ERGs were elicited by white light flashes of -0.4 log cd-s/m2. The b-wave amplitudes of the treated eyes were compared with those of the control eyes. Statistical significance between the two groups was determined by Student t test.
The a-wave was undetectable at -0.4 log cd-s/m2 in the rd10 mice at PD28. In the control eye injected with PBS, the b-wave amplitude was 82.4±10.7 μV (mean±SD, n=5). The b-wave in the treated eye was 115±16.5 μV (n=5, P=0.0017), significantly higher than the control.
Intravitreal injection of recombinant human MANF significantly preserves b-wave in the rd10 mice. Our results thus demonstrate that MANF not only preserves photoreceptor cells, but also their light-sensing function.
