Earthwatch Student Fellowships enable students to join expeditions around the world. These young adults can then share their experiences and new knowledge with thousands of students and teachers upon their return.
Jessica from Arizona had been a volunteer at a local zoo and was planning on majoring in a scientific field in college. She found details of the Earthwatch Student Fellowship program and asked a teacher to nominate her. Jessica was selected and joined our Mammals of Nova Scotia project in 2010, where she worked with her team among forests, meadows, and beaches, studying how small mammalian prey species are affected by disrupted seasonal weather patterns. The experience helped her to define her planned career.
Earthwatch Student Fellowships enable students to travel and volunteer in scientific research while acquiring new personal and professional skills. Jessica from Arizona shares her story.
How are humans reshaping the wild lands around us, and what will the consequences be? Nova Scotia's mammals can guide us toward the answer.

"I learned so much about fieldwork," said Jessica. "The trip taught me that even the small things you study are important, such as scat. Scat [animal feces] is gross to everyone else in the world, but to scientists and those of us who went on the expedition it is fascinating and a great learning tool. We even created songs about our work, and it was just an awesome experience."
And it wasn't just about the research— important as it is.
"The lead scientists, Chris and Christina, were very kind and it was amazing to have actual scientists fixing us meals and breakfast and playing games with them. Even washing the dishes was fun because we told jokes while doing it!"
"I will be friends with those other people on my expedition for the rest of my life," says Jessica. "Each one of them was friendly and appreciative of the world around us. We all have a connection now that will never go away. The traveling was amazing. I have not been anywhere as beautiful as Nova Scotia and I constantly want to return to its beauty."
"The expedition really did change my life. I now understand how exciting and wonderful fieldwork can be—as before I thought it would be boring, and I thought observing and counting would be tiring. It is an exhausting job, but it is so fascinating. We went to watch a beaver dam at one point on the trip, and it really was the most enjoyable time I had ever had."
"The trip ignited my passion for nature and has made me want to experience more nature and parks and helped me keep my joy for animals and people as well."
Inspired by her experience, Jessica went on to college studying parks and recreation management.
Nova Scotia's biodiversity is under threat from climate change and from human–wildlife conflicts over resources like crops and timber.

Vermilion Hall
Student Financial Assistance (SFA) at DACC is available in the form of scholarships, grant, loans, and part-time employment. In-depth information and counseling may be obtained from the Financial Aid Office located in the Vermilion Hall, 1st Floor, West Wing. Four full-time staff members and several part time students maintain the office and provide service to DACC students.
About 78% of the DACC student body enrolled in eligible SFA Programs receive some type of Student Financial Assistance (SFA) each year. The most current completed award year of 2017-2018 revealed a total of funds disbursed from Federal, State, Institutional, various Agencies in the form of grants, scholarships, waivers and loans to be $7,684,780.00 (Source: Fund Annual Report).
A DACC brochure, "How to Pay for College" is a useful tool that summarizes the resources available to help pay for educational costs.
To review the cost of attendance read this DACC COA.
A Danville Area Community College student who may receive any State or Federal financial aid must meet the following minimum standards of program guidelines and academic progress in order for financial aid to be awarded.
Eligibility for SFA is determined by individual "Financial Need." Financial need is the difference between the costs of attending college for a period of attendance and the amount a student's family can be expected to contribute from their income and assets.
Because various sources of SFA funds are limited, it is usually necessary to meet a student's needs by combining several forms of aid. This combination of more than one kind of aid is referred to as a "financial aid package".
The first step to determine if you are eligible for any type of student aid (Federal and/or Illinois State) is to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Your eligibility for the need and non-need based programs will be determined from your family's financial resources as well as household size and number attending college (excluding parent's).
Resources for Blind and Visually Impaired Students: TTY number 1-800-730-9013.
The previous year's financial resources (that is a completed Federal tax year) prior to the start of a financial aid award year is the data you will use to complete the FAFSA. For instance if you plan to take classes Fall 2019 and/or Spring 2020 you would be in the 2019/2020 Award Year. Your family would use income resource data from the tax year of 2017. The DACC Financial Aid Office will require copies of your Tax Transcripts to complete the verification process. You can contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) at 1-800-829-1040 to request a Tax Return Transcript. If you use the IRS data retrieval, when completing your FAFSA, you will not have to submit a tax transcript unless you change the tax fields later.
IMPORTANT: If you think your family has an exceptional financial circumstance that should be addressed complete the worksheet for the Appeal for Special Circumstances (ASC) and return it (with supporting documentation) to the DACC financial Aid Office. Results from the FAFSA must be on file and that information verified before a Special Circumstance can be evaluated.
The ASC form as well as other DACC Financial Aid Office forms can be found by clicking here FORMS. Be sure to follow all instructions provided and attachments requested with each applicable form you need to submit.
If you have attended previous colleges, request copies of your grade transcript(s) to be sent to the DACC Records office. Also, send a memo (or phone) the DACC Records Office that the transcript(s) is to be evaluated for your program of study (Certificate, Degree or transfer credit) at DACC. Credits that can be used for your program at DACC will be included in the Maximum Time Frame for program completion.We will not certify DL stafford loans until all transcrips are received and evaluated.
NOTE: DACC's Financial Aid Office verifies all elements of the FAFSA data. You and your family will be requested to provide the documentation concerning the information required on the FAFSA. Your financial aid file will not be completed and student financial aid (that you may qualify for) will not be awarded until all verification is complete. Any instances of conflicting, erroneous or omitted information may require a correction to your FAFSA data. Once corrections are processed and returned you will be updated to any changes in eligibility. It is important that you reply to all requests for verification documentation. Verification must be completed and corrections made (if applicable) before the end of the semester for which you are applying for student aid funds or all "potential" SFA funds will be canceled.

CBD Gummies from Happy Hemp
February 21, 2020
I have diabetic nephropathy pain which is nearly impossible to get complete relief without resorting to heavy pain killers. I have tried several CBD formats and find that a combination of Happy Hemp gummy bears and CBD creams with menthol provide the best results. I use 2 gummies in the early part of the day and 2 more about a 1/2 hour before bedtime along with the application of the cream directly on my feet does an amazing job of relieving the sometimes intense pain. I can finally sleep without interruption. This one-time skeptic is now a believer, this actually works!

Fifty-six people have been arrested on suspicion of killing 30 villagers, including women and children, on the coast of Kenya, police said on Saturday.
Friday's violent clash fueled international concern over security in the east African state ahead of elections next year. Raiders, settled farmers from the Pokomo ethnic group, attacked semi-nomadic Orma pastoralists with guns, machetes and spears.
The two groups have fought for years over access to grazing, farmland and water, but human rights activists blame the latest violence on politicians seeking to drive away parts of the local population they believe will vote for rivals in national elections due in March. The US, which sees Kenya as an important ally in a volatile region facing the threat of al-Qaeda-linked militants in Somalia, issued a statement roundly condemning the violence.
"The United States condemns in the strongest terms the renewed violence in Kenya's Tana River region ... This latest incident represents a disturbing escalation of the tragic violence witnessed by these communities in August and September," a statement from White House spokesman Jay Carney said. "With historic elections approaching in March, peace and stability are essential to Kenya's continued progress. The United States urges the people of Kenya to assert their rights through peaceful means, as provided for in Kenya's constitution, so that all Kenyans may realize a secure, democratic, and prosperous future."
After Kenya's disputed 2007 national elections, 1,200 people were killed and many thousands more were driven from their homes.
Survivors described the raid.
"They hacked everyone they came across with machetes and spears and shot indiscriminately at us, even as we scampered to seek safety in the bushes. It was confusion. We didn't know which direction they were coming from," Hamisi Abdul, an Orma, said of the attack by the Pokomo.
Abdul, 27, is in hospital nursing two bullet wounds in his left arm and shoulder.
Police said 11 Pokomo had also died in Friday's violence that they described as a reprisal raid following a series of clashes in August in which more than 100 people died. They added that the dead among the Orma included six women and 13 children.
"We launched a major overnight man hunt for the attackers and arrested 56 suspects who we believe were involved in the attacks," coast region deputy police chief Robert Kitur said. "Several of them had various body injuries like cuts, confirming that they participated in the attacks."
The suspects were arrested at their homes and a nearby forest where they had gone to hide, he said.
"We also recovered an AK-47 rifle, three rounds of ammunition, hundreds of arrows, bows, spears and machetes. We shall arraign them in court next week to face various charges, top among them murder," he said.
Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki has instructed security forces to prevent further deaths. Police sent an additional team of 200 paramilitary officers to the region to disarm the fighters. Prolonged trouble on the coast may affect Kenya's vital tourism industry, already damaged by the kidnappings of Western tourists from beach resorts by Somali gunmen and grenade attacks in the port city of Mombasa.

Why I went: Going into undergrad, I knew that studying abroad would be one of my main goals. I grew up in Buffalo and went to school in Buffalo, so I wanted to see another part of the world.
Choosing France: I went to France because UB had this really good exchange program at a school called ENSEA — you literally take all the same classes you would be taking at UB, so you can study abroad without getting behind.
The classes were in English. I didn't know any French going in, but I made French friends and took French after coming back to UB.
The art of life: I loved experiencing another culture and lifestyle. People there really value what they call the "art of life," which means that you work hard, but that it's also important to have time to relax.
I felt it was very different from the American lifestyle, which is all about work.
People used to ask me, "What do you do for fun?" and I had to think about it. I was always busy with homework and clubs. Now, in grad school, I prioritize free time. I go for a walk or to a café. I think it's important to have balance because you can be more productive if you're a happier person.
Summer in Paris: I lived in Paris for a couple of months the summer after I graduated.
It was pure vacation — I went with my best friend and we had just finished college and were going to grad school, so it was our congratulations trip. I introduced her to a friend in France, and they're still dating.
What I'm doing now: My research at UC Berkeley deals with solution-processable light-emitting diodes (LEDs). I'm making LEDs out of polymers — flexible materials. I did research in Israel last summer as part of my degree program.
The decision to study abroad was one of the best I made in my life. When you're in a new place, you're unfamiliar with everything and you learn to find your own way. I gained another level of self-confidence, and the ability to feel comfortable in new situations.

Franklin Park
Come visit the zoo, play a round of golf, picnic, perambulate, or play ball in Franklin Park's vast expanses of green.
Established in 1885
Going from the Boston Common to Franklin Park, you experience a common, a garden, a mall, a former tidal marsh, a river glen, several ponds and an arboretum. Welcome to the "country park," the largest park and crowning jewel of Frederick Law Olmsted's achievements in Boston.
Olmsted considered "country parks," those used "exclusively with reference to the enjoyment of rural scenery," to be crucial for city dwellers. But in addition to scenery, Franklin Park has a woodland preserve and The Playstead, an area for active recreation and sports. The Greeting, planned as a formal entrance, is now the site of the Franklin Park Zoo, added in 1911.
Historically the park encompassed 527 acres and it took several years to build. It was considered so important to our physical and mental health that the city raised its debt limit and borrowed $2 million to build it. Originally Park Commissioners had hoped to tap into Ben Franklin's trust fund for the money to acquire this park, hence the name.
When Franklin Park was built it lay well beyond Boston's populated center. Today it is an inviting open space amidst a city of over a half-million residents. The park, including the zoo and George Robert White Schoolboy Stadium, is currently 485 acres due to the construction of the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital in the 1950s.
Come visit the zoo, play a round of golf, picnic, perambulate, or play ball in Franklin Park's vast expanses of green.
The Emerald Necklace Conservancy is a non-profit citizen's advocacy group whose mission is to protect, restore, maintain and promote the landscape, waterways and parkways of the Emerald Necklace park system as special places for people to visit and enjoy. The organization focuses on the six parks designed by Frederick Law Olmsted.
The Franklin Park Coalition (FPC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to restoring and preserving this "gem" of Frederick Law Olmsted's Emerald Necklace and the city's largest park.

10 April 2014 at 5.40pm | 1 Comment
In 2009, reports surfaced in the press that a bear had been spotted in Suffolk. Videos appeared online, the police were notified and walkers were warned to be on their guard.
'I saw it moving through the trees ahead', said one witness. 'It was much bigger than a dog. I picked up my son and left for the car straight away.'
But the story was a hoax: there was no bear. The videos had been created by a theatre company to draw attention to their upcoming production of The Winter's Tale.
It's not often that a play is best known for one stage direction. But then not many stage directions are as memorable as the one that appears in Act III of Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale: 'Exit, pursued by a bear.'
The character being pursued is Antigonus, a lord of Sicilia, who has been ordered to abandon the baby Princess Perdita . He is interrupted in his cruel errand by the arrival of the bear, an encounter that proves fatal for him – but not for the baby.
Frustratingly, 17th-century accounts of early stagings of the play make no mention of the bear's appearance. It's not impossible that a real bear was used at the premiere. The Globe Theatre was, after all, not far from the city's bear-baiting pits. But, as Shakespeare scholars Susan Snyder and Deborah T. Curren-Aquino have pointed out, these bears were far from tame: 'even less likely is a bear trained to the point where it could be trusted to wait backstage, enter on cue, and rush at Antigonus without mauling him.'
Another theory has gained credence in the last few years. In 1609 (around the time the play was written) King James I was given two polar bear cubs that had been captured on a voyage to the Arctic. One of these cubs could well have featured in the premiere – a bear cub would have been much less dangerous than a full-grown animal, and would surely have been a hit with audiences.
For a multitude of very sensible reasons, real bears are now unlikely to be used in productions of The Winter's Tale. Representations of the bear have generally fallen into two types: realistic (an actor in a bear suit) and more conceptual.
On the realistic side, Charles Kean's bear in his 1856 production was praised in The Times as 'a masterpiece of the zoological art'. An early 20th-century production by Harley Granville-Barker and a 1951 staging by Peter Brook were both praised for having convincingly ferocious bears.
But the problem with the bear-suit approach is that the scene can often end up being funny – and this direction is about a man being mauled to death. That essential mismatch has led directors to search for less 'pantomime' ways of staging the scene.
Conceptual versions of the stage direction have included a shadow of a bear seen in a flash of lightning (director Ronald Eyre, 1981), a bear evoked by a screech and a growl (James Lapine, 1989) and, in Greg Doran's 1999 production for the Royal Shakespeare Company, the fallen canopy of the Sicilian palace morphed into the shape of a bear. In a 1986 production by Terry Hands a polar bear rug reared up to chase off the terrified Antigonus.
Choreographer Christopher Wheeldon is keeping tight-lipped about how he'll be staging the scene for The Royal Ballet – but he has said the famous bear moment won't involve any dancers…
The Winter's Tale runs 12 April–10 June 2016. Tickets are still available.

Suit Against Former Law Partner May Be Subject To Arbitration
From the web page of the Tennessee Supreme Court:
The Tennessee Supreme Court has sent a dispute between a Memphis law firm and a former partner and paralegal back to the trial court to determine whether arbitration is appropriate.
The law firm of Glassman, Edwards, Wyatt, Tuttle & Cox, P.C. filed a lawsuit against B.J. Wade, a former partner, and Shannon Crowe, a former paralegal, alleging fraud and breach of their duties to the firm. Mr. Wade and Ms. Crowe both asked the trial court to send their cases to arbitration, as required by agreements they maintain govern resolution of each case. The firm, however, asserts that none of the agreements require arbitration.
The trial court consolidated the cases and initially ordered the parties to proceed with limited discovery to determine whether the cases were subject to arbitration. When disagreement arose, however, the trial court expanded the scope of discovery to include "all necessary documents to conduct a meaningful attempt at resolution of this matter." The trial court also ordered the parties to mediation in an attempt to resolve all of their disputes. The Tennessee Supreme Court granted the request of Mr. Wade and Ms. Crowe for an immediate appeal.
In a unanimous opinion issued today, the Supreme Court concluded that the trial court erred in ordering discovery without limiting the scope of discovery to the issue of the enforceability of the arbitration provisions and erred in ordering the parties to mediation in an effort to resolve all aspects of their disputes.
The Supreme Court ordered that the case be returned to the trial court to determine whether arbitration was required of any dispute between the parties under any of the agreements at issue. The Court also held that discovery must be limited to the issue of whether the arbitration clauses contained in the agreements are enforceable.
The court's opinion is linked here.

Associated Press
Sid Luckman
Chicago Bears quarterback Sid Luckman was one of 19 men (out of 28) from his team's 1943 championship squad to leave for the war the following year. While Luckman fought at Normandy, his coach George Halas was the "welfare and recreation officer" for the 7th Fleet in the Pacific. He reportedly sent orders to his old team via telegram.
Associated Press
Eddie LeBaron
At 5-foot-7 and 166 pounds, LeBaron became known as the "Littlest General." But the nickname had nothing to do with his College Football Hall of Fame career, in which he started at quarterback, safety and punter for the University of the Pacific. He earned the nickname after serving in the Korean War. After being drafted by the Washington Redskins in 1950, LeBaron played in two Redskins preseason games -- then entered the Korean War as a second lieutenant with the Marine Corps Reserves. He was wounded twice during his nine months in Korea and was decorated with a Purple Heart. He also was awarded the Bronze Star and the Letter of Commendation. LeBaron returned from Korea in 1952 to play seven seasons with the Redskins and another four with the Dallas Cowboys. In fact, he was the first starting quarterback in the history of "America's Team" (of course, they weren't known as "America's Team" just yet).
Courtesy Pittsburgh Steelers
Rocky Bleier
After being drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1968 and playing one season, Bleier was drafted into the Army and shipped to Vietnam with the 196th Light Infantry Brigade in May of 1969. He was later awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star -- but also left Southeast Asia with a load of shrapnel in his right leg, which is why doctors told him he would never play football again.
But Bleier did play again, returning to the Steelers in 1971 as Franco Harris' blocking fullback and playing on four Super Bowl-winning teams in 10 more NFL seasons.
"For me, to have someone yell at you was second nature," Bleier once said. "In combat, as we have come to learn, when you're put in harm's way, there is a chance of permanent injury. There might not be a tomorrow, and that is always the question that lingers in one's mind. Will I get back safely? Will I be able to survive this combat? In football, there will always be next week."
Pro Football Hall of Fame
Chuck Bednarik
"Concrete Charlie" a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame had an illustrious career as a two-way player for the Philadelphia Eagles from 1949 to 1962.
"I'm proud to be an American, home of the free," says Bednarik, who had a long and decorated career in the Army. "This is the greatest place on Earth."
The Bethlehem, Pa., native was drafted into the Army at 18, and then sent to gunnery school in the midst of World War II. Bednarik served with the 467th Bomb Group in the Eighth Air Force, flying 30 missions over Germany in a B-24 Liberation Bomber and was decorated with the Air Medal, four Oak Leaf Clusters and the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Ribbon, with five Battle Stars.
"Well, you learn a lot when you are in that situation. You're being shot at. I was just a kid. I had to learn how to survive and to work with my team," he said. "We did that. We survived. It was brutal. I'm thankful to be here to enjoy my life."
U.S. Navy
George McAfee
George McAfee, right, established himself as a star player for the Chicago Bears in the 1940s, dominating as a runner, receiver, and punt returner. McAfee's NFL career was interrupted by World War II, when he enlisted in the Navy. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1966.
Buffalo Bills
Ralph Wilson
Wilson enlisted in the Navy and was in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters during World War II. He went on to found the Buffalo Bills and was an influential AFL owner. Wilson, a key figure in the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2009 after building the small-market Bills into one of the sport's real success stories.
National Football League
Roger Staubach
There aren't many truly American tales quite as impressive as Roger Staubach's: Naval Academy; Heisman Trophy; tour of duty in Vietnam; Super Bowl hero for the Dallas Cowboys, "America's Team", of course -- and Pro Football Hall of Fame. Not to mention that he went into business after football and sold his company for hundreds of millions of dollars. Special nod here goes to NFL.com's own Gil Brandt. As vice president of the Cowboys when they drafted Staubach in 1964 -- five years before he could start his career because of his military commitment -- Brandt had the idea to ship footballs to Vietnam so the quarterback could keep his throwing arm fresh during his free time. Staubach resigned his commission in 1969, spent 11 years with the Cowboys, won two Super Bowls and was enshrined in the Hall of Fame in 1985.
U.S. Army
Clyde Turner
Clyde "Bulldog" Turner was drafted out of Hardin-Simmons University by the Chicago Bears in the first round of the 1940 draft. At a time when players from small schools were rarely noticed by the NFL, Turner was a dominant center and linebacker for the Bears, earning four Pro Bowls and seven first-team all-pro selections.
He was drafted into the Army towards the end of World War II in 1945.
Turner was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1966.
National Football League
Paul Hornung
He wasn't called "The Golden Boy" for nothing. Hornung has led a charmed life in many ways. For starters, he remains the only person ever to win the Heisman Trophy while playing for a team with a losing record, in 1956 with Notre Dame.
Hornung was called into active duty in the Army in 1961, five years into his Hall of Fame career with the Green Bay Packers. Fortunately for Hornung, his boss -- Vince Lombardi -- was friends with President John F. Kennedy. So Lombardi was able to arrange for his versatile threat -- halfback and kicker -- to receive weekend passes in the fall in order to play for the Packers on Sundays.
Not a bad gig.
Hornung led the NFL in scoring for the third consecutive season in 1961. And during Christmas leave from the Army, he set an NFL record by scoring 19 points in the NFL Championship Game, helping the Packers crush the Giants, 37-0.

Bryce Fisher
Bryce Fisher is a former NFL defensive lineman. He was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 1999 but did not play until 2001, after completing his two-year Air Force commitment. He also played for the St. Louis Rams, Seattle Seahawks, and the Tennessee Titans.

Caleb Campbell
When the Detroit Lions took Campbell in the seventh round of the 2008 NFL Draft, he became the first Army player selected in over a decade. But Campbell went to serve his country for two years before joining the Lions in 2010. He started the season on the practice squad but was activated in November and made three tackles in three games as a defensive back.
"When you walk on to (Army's football) field, you see a sign that says, 'I want an officer for a secret and dangerous mission. I want a West Point football player.' The trust you have to have that the guy next to you is going to get his job done and the discipline that the Academy establishes in each and every cadet -- that carries over to the football field. There are so many times here that you just want to call it quits and you don't think you can go on, but you keep going and never look back knowing that tomorrow is another day."

Pat Tillman
Many NFL players have served in the military. What separates Pat Tillman from the rest isn't his tragic death in 2004. It's the fact that he's the only one to give up a multimillion-dollar contract to serve his country. And his decision to enlist in the Army Rangers in 2002 was purely voluntary, having been motivated by the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States. While his NFL experience pales in comparison to his experience in Afghanistan and the tragedy that ensued, it's not wrong to wonder what could have been if Tillman never left the gridiron. When he enlisted, Tillman was just 25 years old and entering his fifth NFL season. The safety already had one All-Pro season under his belt in Arizona and developed a reputation as an intense and active player. How good could he have been? Sadly, we'll never know.

Mike Anderson
Mike Anderson is a former NFL running back and Marine. He was drafted by the Denver Broncos in 2000 and received the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. He played a total of 8 season, six for the Denver Broncos and two for the Baltimore Ravens.

Alejandro Villanueva
Villanueva played offensive tackle, defensive lineman and wide receiver while at Army. After starting every game at left tackle during his junior season, the 6-foot-9 Villanueva was asked to play wide receiver as a senior in 2009 (he caught 34 passes for 522 yards and five touchdowns).
Villanueva went undrafted in 2010, had a tryout with the Cincinnati Bengals, and then spent four years as an active member of the Army, serving in three tours in Afghanistan. He worked out at a regional combine in 2014 and signed with the Philadelphia Eagles as a defensive end. Shortly after being released by the Eagles, Villaneuva was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers and assigned to the practice squad. He was elevated to the active roster in 2015, and started 10 games that year at left tackle.

Nate Boyer
Nate Boyer is a former NFL long snapper for the Seattle Seahawks and United States Army Green Beret. He was signed by the Seahawks in 2015 as an undrafted free agent after playing college football at the University of Texas as a walk-on. Boyer was honorably discharged after serving six years and multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Joe Cardona is a long snapper for the New England Patriots after being drafted in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft.

Nu.Face Eden in HJ Couture
The fabric is a silky feeling semi-sheer delight. Huckleberry is incredibly skilled with a sewing machine as evidenced by the well applied leather strips and the folded fabric which is symmetrical and perfect.
There is a leather 'train' down the back with ruffles on either side. I will have to photograph that detail. The dress slips on either from the bottom up or vice versa. The arm openings are large. HJ shows the dress worn with and without a belt. I like it this way.
Click on the photo to see it full-sized.
Background setting is Bella! RWV floor, walls and windows. The prop is a black velvet ring display item.

HJ's COUTURE collection is one of the most WOW that i saw till now. and I'm looking forward to see more from him.ReplyDelete
I have to disagree. While he is a skilled tailor and can construct a garment, his designs are as awkward as is his poor draping. The dress pictured is a disaster, and a mish-mosh of too many ideas in one garment. I commend him on his "vision", his effort, but unlike many successful avant guard or "envelope pushing" designers, he doesn't excite me. I looked closely at his designs and I find them awkward and unflattering, but then again the Emporer always needs new clothes and will always have followers.ReplyDelete

In an historic vote, Minnesota has become the latest state to approve equal marriage. Today's vote in the state senate means that Minnesota will join 11 states and the District of Columbia to allow same-sex marriage.
Minnesota also becomes "the first state in the Midwest" to approve equal marriage by legislative vote, adds KSTP.
The Senate vote of 37-30 came four days after the House passed the bill on a 75-59 vote. When the tally was announced after more than four hours of debate, a huge cheer erupted in the chamber and gallery, where spectators stood and applauded. Minnesota will become the first state in the Midwest to make gay marriage legal via a legislative vote. Iowa legalized same-sex marriage in 2009 through a court ruling.
Last week, Dayton, a Democrat, called the bill "one of those society-changing breakthrough moments." His staff scheduled a signing ceremony for 5 p.m. Tuesday on the Capitol steps.
It's a rapid turnaround for gay marriage supporters, who just six months ago had to organize a massive effort to defeat a constitutional amendment that would have banned gay marriage. The groups who defeated the amendment quickly turned their attention to legalizing gay marriage, and their efforts were aided by Democrats capturing full control of state government in November.
Three Democrats voted against the bill. One Republican voted yes.
Minnesota joins Delaware and Rhode Island to becomes the third state to approve marriage equality in the last two weeks. Minnesota and Rhode Island's laws become effective August 1.
Take that, Michele Bachmann and Tim Pawlenty!

The National Weather Service issued tsunami warnings Friday morning for the West Coast following the magnitude 8.9 earthquake that struck Japan. And those warnings proved to be the real thing for the people who have boats in the Santa Cruz Harbor.
The warnings turned to advisories Bay Area-wide for the entire region by the early evening hours, but the damage was done with estimates in the millions of dollars.
A tsunami-related surge severely damaged at several docks and dozens of boats at the Santa Cruz Harbor. The harbor is just south of the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and is marked by the Santa Cruz Breakwater lighthouse. The damage estimate to the harbor alone, according to city officials, was $2 million.
Dozens of people stood on the bridge and the railroad track that cross Pillar Point Harbor to watch the damage throughout the day. A worker at the Cliff House referred to the tsunami as a "spectator sport."
The water started to pour into the harbor around 7:45 a.m. and put all moorings to the test. The first surge knocked one boat and two dock-like objects free. Later surges knocked dozens of boats free as they began to slam into each other. Some capsized under the water's pressure.
Complete Tsunami Coverage Here
Authorities issued a local emergency and warned residents to stay away from the coast because larger waves were likely to hit the coast later in the day.

The tsunami's surge went both ways. The water came in and then went back out with just as much force. It was a circular cycle that took about a minute to change directions and resembled time-lapse photography, with high-tide turning into low-tide within a matter of seconds.
Definitions: Tsunami Advisory, Watch, Warning | Other Tsunami Terms | Webcams: Santa Cruz/Monterey Beaches | USGS: West Coast Advisories
KCBS anchor Stan Bunger compared the force of the water in the harbor to the force of the water that runs near the Grand Canyon. He said the water in Santa Cruz was actually moving faster then the Grand Canyon on Thursday morning.
NBC Bay Area meteorologist Christina Loren predicted the damage would continue throughout the day Friday as more tsunami's continue to pour into the California coast. That proved true. Even as late as 4 p.m. tsunami surges poured into the harbor.
Near the Oregon border the Crescent City harbor also reported major damage. It is smaller than Santa Cruz but emergency officials there say that numerous vessels have been damaged by tidal flows in and out of the harbor. A tsunami caused major damage in Crescent City in 2006, but Friday's surges were much worse. One local described the harbor as a total loss.

David Booth comes to the Canucks and could be just the right ingredient to complete
the second line with Ryan Kesler.
The Vancouver Canucks have traded Marco Sturm and Mikael Samuelsson to the Florida Panthers for David Booth, Steven Reinprecht and a 2013 3rd round draft pick.
It appears, at first glance, that Mike Gillis has finally rounded out the second line and given Ryan Kesler a complementary speedy winger.
The Canucks official announcement can be found on their website here.
Marco Sturm struggled mightily in his VERY brief time in Vancouver, and Mikael Samuelsson was off to a horrible start this year. Some suggest that he may still be hurt and recovering following off-season surgery. Whatever the case is, neither winger found any real chemistry on the second line and both were relegated to the press box already.
In David Booth, the Canucks a speedy winger capable of finding the back of the net. Despite a nasty concussion in 2009-10, Booth recovered to play all 82 games for the Panthers last season. He will make an excellent addition to the second line and provide Ryan Kesler with a great outlet on that line. Booth's only down side. He was a hideous minus-31 last year.
As for Steven Reinprecht, he should be quite familiar with the Canucks, spending a significant portion of his career in the Northwest Division with both the Avalanche and the Flames, as well as in the Western Conference with the Coyotes. Reinrpecht also played all 82 games with the Panthers last season and notched 16 goals.

A Thousand Ships
Headed to the Rodeo
What better way to celebrate Father's Day than by strolling down Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, California. As it happened, Sunday was the Rodeo Drive Concours.
OK, full disclosure – this was not a chance meeting. We took a 4 day holiday from the blast furnace that is summer in Phoenix to hang out in milder climes with the beautiful people. And we were hoping against hope that the LaFerrari would make an appearance.
No such luck. We did see Bugatti no. 5. We also saw our first non-auction 288GTO. As shows go, it was a filtered, condensed version of the monthly
Cars and Coffee Hookers and Squirrels "Scottsdale Motorsports Gathering." (Not the Penske sponsored crapfest – the real one.) Smaller than the Windgate festival of speed. Like both, it was strafed by similarly cool machines that didn't want to linger.

What to drive to the Concorso Ferrari 2014? Isn't it obvious? Something American, overweight (duh), festooned with fake scoops,mostly purposeless vents and spoilers, and garish for a strip club decals! Something with a pushrod V8 and leaf springs! and with the worst of all convertible vs hardtop worlds, a T-top! Something so undeniably awesome in its wretched, unapologetic 1970s-ness!. This:

Today's Bureau of Labor Statistics report on U.S. jobs in August shows not only that no new jobs were created in August – zero change – but it also revises down the number of jobs in June and July, mostly due to worse than previously estimated cuts in state and local government jobs. The net result is that the new data show the U.S. has 58,000 fewer jobs in August than was previously estimated for July.
It gets worse.
Not only were no jobs created in August, but the "average" paid workweek was reduced to 34.2 hours a week from 34.3 hours a week in July. This means that the failure to add jobs was not the result of employers adding hours to the existing workforce – which is often the case in uncertain times like these – and gives further reason for concern about job growth going forward.
It gets worse.
And even "average" hourly wages fell slightly in August – even before factoring in price rises – which, along with the decline in paid hours per week, means that "average" weekly wages plunged by 0.4 percent in August even before factoring in any price rises. Such sharply falling wages and no job growth is awful news in an economy where the vast majority of households were already under very severe financial stress.
Real disposable income per capita continued falling in July for the fourth time in the past five months. Sales rebounded in July, after three consecutive months of real decline, and appear to have held up reasonably well in August by driving down "average" savings rates. This is obviously unsustainable.
Maybe most importantly, there are now nearly 2 million fewer private sector jobs in the U.S. than there were in August 2000. That is the first 11-year loss of jobs since the period ending in 1938 following the catastrophic policy mistake of prematurely focusing on balancing the federal budget – which, of course, also worsened sharply. The jobless pay few taxes.

Accommodations in MatalascanyasMatalascañas is one of the most popular coastal towns in Huelva, it is part of Almonte and is located near the National Park of Doñana.
At the same beach we can contemplate the remains of the Higueras tower, a former monitoring tower from which only a part of its foundation remains.
One of the attractions of Matalascañas is the closeness to the village of El Rocío, as it doesnt have cultural monuments and museums to visit... this remains a highly protected area, as of the closeness from the Park of Doñana mentioned above.
Before becoming an urbanized area, there were huts, but now a days that practice no longer exists, however, we still can enjoy some very clean beaches with green bluish water and fine sand. During the weekends its very crowded, as there are a multitude of buses filled with tourists from other parts of Huelva.
The dunes near the beach, are an ideal place to observe the meteorite rains during the night, also known as the tears of Lawrence in August. This beach is also the most visited one by the Sevillians.
The area has an intense nightlife, as it has lots of fun in the evening, both, on the beach and at the promenade. The people here are very friendly, what makes the visitors enjoying the treatment they are receiving and the accumulated memories of those days are unforgettable, for many tourists its one of the unique beaches at our coastline.

I guess this is Walt's "the trade."
I guess this is Walt's "the trade."
"Bring on Rod Stupid!"
I could see this franchise losing 100 games next year.
Honestly, this is simply the worst-run sports team I have ever rooted for. I would prefer the Bengals of the '90s. At least they had a plan: spend as little money as possible. I have no idea what the Reds are trying to accomplish.
Dallas Buck's draft bio from BA:
1. Dallas Buck, rhp (National rank: 48)
School: Oregon State. Class: Jr.
Hometown: Newberg, Ore.
B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-3. Wt.: 210. Birthdate: 11/11/84.
Scouting Report: No pitcher elicits more head-scratches in the West than Buck, who has gone from hard-throwing bad boy to soft-tossing, innings-eating warrior. A former special-teams player for Oregon State's football team, Buck is one of the draft's better athletes, and his athletic ability and competitiveness have helped him pitch through a dead-arm period that has sapped his velocity. While Buck won his first nine decisions for the Pacific-10 Conference-leading Beavers, his fastball registered in the 82-87 mph range after sitting around 89-91 mph last season and touching 94. A mid-April MRI showed a sprain of his ulnar collateral ligament, with no tear. He had three solid starts with improved velocity thereafter, but slid back in mid-May to the mid-80s. Without his velocity, Buck has relied on adding sink to his fastball, spotting it better and outwitting hitters with his slider and changeup, both average pitches. While his mound demeanor has turned off scouts in the past, his willingness to compete without his best stuff has offset many makeup concerns. If his velocity returns, Buck should be better than ever, having learned to pitch in its absence.
So who starts in left tonight? Colbrera with Bruce in RF?
a super volcano of ridonkulous suckitude.
I simply don't have access to a "cares about RBI" place in my psyche. There is a "mildly curious about OBI%" alcove just before the acid filled lake guarded by robot snipers with lasers which leads to the "cares about RBI" antechamber though. - Nate
I wonder if Cast is still in "win now" mode, I would have to imagine he gave his ok for this trade to happen. Seats were not being filled as it was, with Dunn and Jr gone GABP will be a ghost town.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
The question will be whether the Reds got two number one worthy players in return. Essentially they gave up two number one picks by trading Dunn and not letting him walk.
Reds Fan Since 1971
I wouldn't mind getting Micah Owings as one of throw ins.
my guess is that PTBNLs are likely on 40 man roster, and Reds will wait for them to clear waivers.
link to Dbacks 40 man:
I will second (or maybe third, fourth, 10th) what others have said... Max Scherzer better be in this deal. Otherwise, I don't like it one bit.
Just kills me that we finally traded Dunn and we don't even know exactly what we're getting back. I also wonder if they were close to a deal before the trading "deadline" (too bad all deadlines aren't this loose) or if this just popped up this week. I have to think they had discussions about this before today/yesterday.
And let me repeat: Scherzer better be in this deal!

Weatherization Show and Tell
A version of this article appears in the January/February 2002 issue of Home Energy Magazine.
January 01, 2002
The proven benefits of weatherization remain, frustratingly, not well known. Some states are reaching out to politicians and communities, spreading the good word by demonstrating exactly what weatherization looks like.
In 2001, the federal Department of Energy (DOE) celebrated the 25th anniversary of its Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP), a nationwide project that upgrades low-income homes.Weatherization provides insulation for attics,walls, and floor areas; major air sealing, including repairs of windows and doors; and a health and safety inspection of combustible appliances.Over the years the program has reached a high level of technical sophistication, resulting in significant energy savings for the inhabitants of lowincome homes.Yet many people are still unaware of its benefits.To address this gap, several states have initiated a new promotional effort called the Weatherization Demonstration House as an on-site, hands-on way to show federal, state, and local elected officials,community leaders and partners, the media, and even community action agency board members and staff exactly what happens when a home is "weatherized." Despite celebrating the weatherization of its five millionth low-income home at the National DOE Annual Conference in Atlanta, Georgia in November 2001, the WAP has been on a roller coaster ride in the congressional funding process. In 1995, funds were cut almost in half. In ensuing years, increases have been small. ...

The remains of King Richard III have been found under a car park in Leicester. Scientists have confirmed the skeleton shows evidence of two fatal head wounds and the body was brutally hacked, presumably by his victors, having died on the battlefield in 1485.
After extensive tests, dig project leader, Richard Buckley said, "It is the academic conclusion that beyond reasonable doubt, the individual exhumed at Grey Friars in September 2011 is King Richard III — the last Plantagenet king of England."
King of England and Lord of Ireland, Richard III was killed in the bloody Battle of Bosworth Field, in 1485. This battle ended the Wars of the Roses, leaving Henry VII as King, the first of the Tudor dynasty.
At the time of his death Richard III was reported to have been buried in Grey Friars, in Leicester City, which is today a council car park. Four years ago the Richard III Society embarked on a push to finally uncover the truth of his final resting place.
Read More news from Ireland
The figure of Richard III was known, worldwide, as the hated character in Shakespeare's play. He was perceived for his weakness and hunched back, two characteristics which archaeologists found evidence of. The skeleton evidently has a curved spine and a slender frame.
King Richard's bones have remained unsettled for over 500 years, just a meter underground. They will not be removed to the City's Cathedral.
Canon Chancellor David Mantieth of Leicester Cathedral called the days of this discovery "momentous" and said King Richard III's body would "rest in peace and rise in glory."

In examining the remains, scientists looked at King Richard's DNA, radio-carbo dating and the battle wounds found.
Archaeologists from the University of Leicester recovered a body which showed signs of battle injuries including 10 separate wounds, and scoliosis, in tune with unflattering historic accounts of the monarch.
Significant weight was placed on the DNA evidence, linking Richard to a living descendant, Michael Ibsen, through the female line of Anne of York.
The bones reveal a man in his late 20s to late 30s (the king was killed at 32). Radio-carbon dating showed he died in the second half of the 15th century or the early 16th century, consistent with the Wars of the Roses.

The bones also showed he was five-foot-eight-inches tall and "unusually slender" for a male.
The body had ten wounds, including two head wounds, which would have killed him. Other injuries included several other head wounds, a cut to his ribcage and a pelvic wound.
The discovery of his remains has called for historians to call for a revision of his achievements and how he was viewed. Philippa Langley, of the Richard III Society, said, "When he fell he was stripped naked and his scoliosis (curved spine) became known and was used to denigrate him. Today, we find the idea of using physical disability against a person as abhorrent. Let this now be a break from the Tudor medieval mindset."

Noah Cyrus Gossip
Noah Cyrus gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
The Family Cyrus
As Lainey said last week, Miley surged in 2013. The music stands. It stands up alongside Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift and Lorde, and any pop album put out this year. Although Miley's been famous for a long time, this is the year she actually arrived. Full Story
Cyrus Family Portrait
Kevin Winter/ Jason Merritt/ Getty
What does this one look like to you? Let's not forget that Miley was calling out her dad on Twitter as recently as earlier this summer. And that nothing happens in a bubble, especially online. And that Noah Cyrus, age 13 and two thirds has been purportedly wanting a showbiz career for a long time, though it's never really come together for her. Full Story
Worst of 2010: Junior Cyrus & a bottle of Jack
I'm sorry to have to do this to you at the end of the day. But in counting down the Best & Worst of the year, how could I not include this? It's Noah Cyrus. Remember she lipsynched? To Ke$ha??? This child wants you to know her. Badly. She will keep wanting it until she's like the rest. Full Story
Cyrus Gangsta Crunk
Not depressed enough this week? How about watching a video of 10 year old Noie or Noah whatever Cyrus, JailBait v 2.0, miming Ke$ha'sTik Tok ... and somehow this found its way onto YouTube. Don't bother asking what the f-ck her folks are up to. It's not as offensive, I guess, as the time she worked a pole, or dressed like a working girl for Halloween, and I'm sure she's not the only 10 year old to lipsynch to pop music. Full Story
Smack the Cyrus
Since I'm going to hell already I'll say it for you – the little one's voice is just as annoying as her older sister. Of course it's a Cyrus. What else could it be? You've already enjoyed the sight of Noah Cyrus working a pole Full Story
Children wake up,hold your mistake up,before they turn the summer into dust. Songs just pop in your head suddenly. This is what popped when I saw these photos today of Sisters JailBait Miley and Noah Cyrus going through Miami airport. Miley is 17, Noah is 9. And they look it. And this is good. And it should be acknowledged. Full Story
Please look like this all the time
This is what Noah Cyrus, 9 year old sister of JailBait Miley, looks like when they don't skank her all up like a pageant girl. Totally normal, ordinary, even cute, right? Except of course for the naked fameloving all over her face. Nothing can mask that. Noah was hanging out by JailBait's tour buses in Miami the other day, a holiday on the road with her family. Full Story
And all those ambitious parents on Toddlers & Tiaras, all of them are taking notes, admiring the latest move by the Cyruses who have written the definitive book on raising JailBait, following up their Miley masterpiece with what could very well be the Mona Lisa of all JailBait... Take a look at 9 year old Noah Cyrus at Jamie Lee Curtis's Halloween party on Saturday dressed as. Full Story

Anyone who has dug their old computer or console out of the cupboard or loft for some retro gaming will probably have noticed that it maybe hasn't worn too well with the test of time. The plastics these machines were made of is called ABS and to make it flame retardant (just in case it catches fire after a marathon session) the plastics manufacturers added chemicals that caused the plastic turn yellow or, even worse, brown over a long period of time.
It was originally thought that the yellowing was permanent and that the only solution to this was to paint the plastic in its original colour and cover the problem up. However, a chance discovery was made in March 2008, by The CBM Museum at Wuppertal in Germany (http://www.forum64.de), that immersing parts in a solution of Hydrogen Peroxide for a few days could partially reverse the process. This was initially taken up by the Amiga community in Germany (http://www.a1k.org) and the idea eventually found its way to the English Amiga Board (http://eab.abime.net), where a madcap collection of chemists, plastics engineers and retro hackers managed to perfect this concept and put it on steroids, with help from other forums.
Dave Stevenson from Manchester, UK, aka 'Merlin', the chemist behind the project, explains. "I came across the use of peroxide in July 2008 when Kristian95 told us over at EAB about what people like AmigaGTI were doing with it over at a1k.org. I was intrigued by this, as I am a former industrial chemist. I am also a plant Safety Manager by trade and, purely by coincidence, around that time I read about a dust explosion that had occurred in the UK with a chemical called TAED, which is the booster in the 'active oxygen' laundry products."
"This got me thinking, and after some really 'full-on', serious chemistry discussions with other EAB members, like Rkauer in Brazil, who is a plastics Engineer and my good friend Zetr0 from Kings Lynn, Norfolk, UK, who endured endless phone calls from me, we wrote some epic threads on English Amiga Board about the possible causes of the yellowing and eventually we arrived at the theory that it was the Bromine in the flame retardant that was the cause. We also knew that Ultra Violet light was another major factor. Having identified the culprit, the next stage was to try to develop and perfect a means of treating the plastic and reversing the yellowing quicker, without causing damage to the plastic. Being a former industrial chemist helped me tremendously, in understanding what was going on at the molecular level and to develop a treatment process to reverse the effect."
"The problem was finally cracked in late July 2008 with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, a small amount of an "Oxy" laundry booster as a catalyst and a UV lamp; we believed that this could do the job in hours instead of days. Proof of this concept was demonstrated on EAB by Tonyyeb from Hull, UK, Chiark from Leeds, UK and myself. The original test I did as proof of concept took two hours, as opposed to up to the five days it took for the original tests at CBM and a1k.org. We were on to something!!

DRC home :: Events :: Feedback :: Wallpaper :: Advanced Search
Each December for the past seventeen years the automotive racing parts industry has gathered for the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) trade show. Any time you assemble 1300 racing parts manufacturers, 3100 booths and 40,000 racers in the same building theres no doubt that more than a little racing news is going to come out of it. This is the story of this years PRI Show and some of the drag racing related news and tidbits that I was able to uncover.
The PRI Show originally got its start as an alternative to the familiar SEMA Show after that show expanded its scope to all things aftermarket and not just the hard core racing parts that it had featured in its early years. The PRI Show is now the 65th largest trade show in the USA and the worlds largest auto racing trade show. Continued growth is expected next year when a new, larger venue will provide additional exhibit space.
After humbly beginning in Louisville, Kentucky the PRI Show has successively outgrown convention centers in Nashville, Cincinnati, Columbus and now Indianapolis. For the past several years the PRI Show has filled every nook, cranny, hallway and broom closet in the Indiana Convention Center as well as the adjourning RCA Dome despite turning away potential new exhibiters and prohibiting existing exhibiters from expanding their booths.
The center of the drag racing universe at this years PRI Show could be found in a corner of the RCA Dome, far away from the prime real estate of the main exhibit hall. It was there that Mike Stawickis new 1967 Camaro Pro Mod race car was on display in the Percys booth. The car uses the first Murray Anderson style carbon fiber body made in North America and is still under construction by G-Force Race Cars. Even in its partially-completed state it was easy to see that this is going to be a magnificent race car.
Tim Hodgins is now marketing the Camaro body through his Cynergy Composites Company and he was on hand to answer questions from interested racers. If the body shape looks familiar its probably because this is the same Camaro body that Jay Payne used in the USA last year as well as the one that Lucky Belleri used to set the Australian Top Door Slammer speed record at 239.86 miles-per-hour.
Across from the Percys booth was the Lenco booth. On display there was the Lencodrive-equipped Alcohol Funny Car of Mick Snyder. Mick had a fine year in 2004, winning the Division 3 A/FC title and finishing a great 7th in points nationally. For 2005 Mick has added Torco Racing Fuels to his list of sponsors. Although the car on display in the Lenco booth still carried his 2004 paint scheme a nice rendering was available that depicted what it will look like in 2005.
Directly across from the Quarter Max booth was the Fidanza booth. On Thursday, Titan Motorsports owner Nero Deliwala debuted his newest race car there, a Toyota Celica that had been built by Rick Jones and his RJ Race Cars firm that featured major sponsorship from Fidanza. The new Celica will compete in the Summit Compact Drag Racing Series as well as the NOPI Drag Racing Series. Titans other Celica could be found in the main hall holding down the Fluidyne booth, its major sponsor.
On Friday, Jeg Coughlin, Jr. was introduced as the newest driver for mega team owner Don Schumacher. Friday night a number of race-related shops in nearby Brownsburg, Indiana had an after-hours open house for visitors that were in town for the PRI Show. At the Roo Man shop the new Fuel Funny Car of Dale Creasy, Jr. held center stage. Roo Man himself is fitting the carbon fiber Chevrolet Monte Carlo body and its debut is tentatively scheduled for the Gatornationals.

Mr. Speaker, as fascinating as this subject is, there is one thing I wanted to hear my colleague talk about that was not mentioned in his preliminary remarks. Maybe he could remedy that in questions and comments.
In my part of the world, working at a dealership, whether as a salesperson, owner, or mechanic, is most certainly associated with that middle class the Liberals are always going on about. Dealers are true SMEs who contribute to the local economy and help develop our markets.
Since the start of the debate on Bill S-2, it has been clear to me that the Liberals do not support the amendment presented in the Senate that would make it easier for dealers to receive compensation.
In that case, do the Liberals have any other ideas about how to support dealers?
