Although I am on diet for such long time, I never felt of being on special diet, it has been an easy and enjoyable period, all thanks to the effort and knowledge of Ms. Kunjan's diet plans. During these period there were instances when my body stopped responding and it triggered demotivating feeling to me, but at those instances she has always encouraged me, and took extra care and gave me the best results. Beside diet plans and consultation, her way of encouraging is the best part which she possesses. Thank you so much Dt. Kunjan Joshi, you have not just helped me in weight loss, but also helped me to get back my confidence.

It's the Teachers, Stupid!
Ethan over at Never Clever Whatsoever has just completed the 8th grade and has just survived Georgia's mandated CRCT testing. While many education-types have opined their opinion regarding why approximately 70% of Georgia's sixth and seventh graders failed the social studies section Ethan has articulated in his words another rant about Georgia's CRCT Scores that is in strong contrast to the same educrat excuse of, "Well, we rolled out these new standards….."
I left two rather long comments for Ethan, and he decided others should see our conversation, so he posted replies to my first and second comments where he recreates my comments and his responses.
I strongly encourage educators to take a moment and head over there and let Ethan know what you think.
While I have never been one to outwardly criticize a colleague regarding his or her teaching style I cannot fathom an 8th grade student taking the CRCT and not knowing why the names Hartsfield and Maynard Jackson are attached to one of the busiest airports in the world!
Yes, as I mentioned in my comments there are many, many reasons why students would do poorly on an assessment, but Ethan doesn't appear to be the kind of student we would dread to have in our classrooms.
The 8th grade Georgia standards that were in effect during Ethan's school year can be found here. Standard number SS8H10 states the student will evaluate key post-WWII development of Georgia from 1945 through 1970 with element b. going a bit futher to state explain how the development of Atlanta, including the roles of mayors William B. Hartsfield and Ivan Allen, Jr., and major league sports, contributed to the growth of Georgia. State standard SS8H11 states the student will evaluate the role of Georgia in the modern civil rights era with element b mentioning the election of Maynard Jackson as mayor of Atlanta. Gee, isn't that clear as a bell? Wouldn't these men and their actions be at the forefront of your lessons regarding this time period?
There it is…..current standards every 8th teacher should have in their possession and mentioned by name are two individuals students should know. If that's not enough to convince a teacher to mention these two men state standard SS8G2 mentions the role of the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and its impact on the state's economy. Wouldn't this standard be a great opportunity to reinforce who Hartsfield and Jackson were?
Since the 1960s and 70s are usually taught later in the year it would be easy to say that Ethan's teacher just simply ran out of time. We all do that, and we all say that's the reason students did poorly on a state test, but Ethan also brought up the name Mary Musgrove in Georgia history, and she would have been taught early in the year and yes…..the standard involved (SS8H2a) mentions her by name and asks the student to explain her importance.
Ethan's experience bothers me greatly. While we as educators can sit around the table and plan units and lessons, while we state we have an understanding of the standards and have included all of them in our plans, and while we have the standards clearly referenced in our plan books for any observer to check off when they stop by the classroom clearly some of us are walking the walk, but not talking the talk. Now I can understand a colleague blowing off things like various required teaching strategies from time to time, but blowing off the standards where it is very clear what students need to know for that grade level I can't even fathom. Aren't the standards the foundation of every lesson? Don't we start with the standards?
Clearly…when the door is closed something else is going on, and it's not teaching the standards. What's it going to take? Weekly visits to the classroom to listen to lessons, to interview the students, to actually hand some teachers a scripted lesson plan to make sure the standards are taught?
My title is a bit harsh. I know there are a myriad number of reasons why the damn tests don't work, but here we have a student who knows he wasn't taught specific key material to the subject matter, and there simply is no excuse.

You're absolutely correct: teachers need to share some of the responsibility. I know I like to blame everything on NCLB, but it also is up to me to make sure I cover the North Carolina Standard Course of Study, standardized tests or not.
As you point out in your discussion with the precocious Ethan, there is no excuse for not teaching what you're told to teach. In my case, there are no specifics; I have a general outline of content, but it is up to me to choose which pieces of literature my students will learn. But if I was told to teach The Scarlet Letter, then I'd have to teach The Scarlet Letter. If I worked at McDonald's and had to ask if people want fries with their order, then that's what I'd do. If nothing else, you follow the directions set forth from your boss.
Thanks for visiting my blog and commenting!
- Unknown said...
I'd like to add this: I have learned who all this people are on my own. I looked for them on the Georgia Encyclopedia, and now, I believe I know the standards very well, although it may be a little too late.
I'm so glad you agree with me. I think it's a bit ignorant to not know that you're supposed to teach the standards.
And thank you for writing this post. My page views are rising everyday thanks to you.
- Mrs. Bluebird said...
Maybe because I came to teaching late , and have only 7 years experience, but I can't imagine teaching anything other than the standards. Personally, as a new teacher, the standards were a lifeline. They were a map that I could follow, and if I did, then my kids should be ready for our Big Deal State Test. My district even makes it easier by having teachers work every summer on a pacing guide and scope and sequence, so we are all on he same page. It also helps our kids who are rent-jumpers - they don't miss anything.
I've never known teaching without standards so they're incredibly easy for me to appreciate.
- "Ms. Cornelius" said...
I know teachers in all content areas who don't look at the standards that apply to them. Come to think of it, I know people in all sorts of industries who never look at the standards that apply to them, either.
The problem is a lack of supervision holding people truly accountable--oh, and laziness.

Katie Couric Voices Regrets over CBS Evening News
"We were overly ambitious," says Katie Couric, who is reportedly close to stepping down as CBS anchor
She made history, but in hindsight, Katie Couric says she may have tried to do too much as the first solo female network news anchor.
"I would have given people what they were used to, a traditional newscast," Couric, who is reportedly close to stepping down at CBS Evening News, tells The New York Times. "And then as they got to know me and got more comfortable, then I would ve started toying with the format and trying new things."
In the end, she says, "I think we were overly ambitious. We probably would have been better off playing it a little safer."
RELATED: Katie Couric Leaving CBS: Report
But one thing that doesn't weigh on her: working at the same network that allowed Charlie Sheen to hang on for so long.
Says Couric, "I don't really consider Charlie Sheen a colleague."
As for reports that she might host her own syndicated talk show in the future, Couric says if that happens she has one main goal for the program: To provide viewers with "smart conversation."

Easy Valentine Pencil Topper
Not every project needs to be DIY. Store bought goodies are just as thoughtful to make some easy valentine's pencil toppers.
I picked up some Star Wars valentines and some pencils.
Then I asked the kids to sign them
Next step, grab your exacto knife! Make a slit approx 1" apart
Then slide in the pencil.
As you send these to school in separate bag, the pencils won't fall out. But if you would like, you can always attach some tape to the pencil.
Like I said, so easy! Happy (early) Valentine's Day!

Are you concerned about someone's drinking?
TRUCKEE, Calif. –Is a child or spouse using drugs that you know is a problem and causes you to feel upset and concerned?
Have you heard about Al-Anon? Al-Anon is a meeting of family and friends who share your feelings. Al-Anon meetings can be found in most communities throughout the United States and internationally. Al-Anon provides a safe, anonymous place to share your concerns and hear how others are coping with the disease of alcoholism and drug addiction. When a family member is alcoholic or addicted, their behavior affects everyone in the family.
Truckee has two Al-Anon meetings a week: Monday at 7 p.m. in the Church of The Mountains Annex Building on Church Street and Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. in the For Goodness Sake Building on Donner Pass Road
You may relate to the following stories submitted by Truckee Al-Anon members.
A spouse: "I have been attending Al-Anon for many years. I arrived at my first meeting feeling desperate, confused, angry and full of fear and shame. I knew my spouse's behavior was connected to his drinking and had no idea about the drug use also going on. The meetings provided support and understanding and helped me to make changes. Having boundaries, not accepting unacceptable behavior, and taking care of myself were all tools I learned in Al-Anon. As I became healthier, our family situation became better. My spouse found recovery and I still attend Al-Anon. I use these tools to be the best person I can be and that makes my life balanced and full.
A son: My mother married her second alcoholic when I was five. He became my dad. Over the next 59 years he never quit drinking, and like many men in South St. Louis thought beer was a food group. A tough taskmaster, my dad criticized everything anyone did including me, his stepson. I thought that was the way life was.
After marrying and divorcing two alcoholic women, I found myself the father of two daughters who had drug and alcohol problems and dysfunctional households of their own. Although I was a successful workaholic businessman, my personal relationships lasted for only a few years each. At the age of 49, I fell in love with a woman 18 years my junior with two young boys. Thinking I must be crazy to put myself into that situation, I decided to get professional help and we were directed to Al-Anon, which became the glue that held us together. And I became a better step parent than I had been as a parent.
During this journey, I made a promise to be happy instead of right and realized it didn't cost a dime to be wrong. Living the 12 steps, traditions and principles of Al-Anon have become a way of life for me. I keep "coming back" to meetings to combat the compulsive behaviors I learned early in life and try to live one day at a time (sometimes one moment at a time). It became a habit not to make decisions when I was hungry, angry or tired (HALT). My relationship with my Higher Power has grown over the years and serenity is part of my life because of the Al-Anon Fellowship.
A parent: Al-Anon has been a blessing in our lives. Our son, battling a pain medication dependency decided to enter a rehab program and we had no understanding of the challenges he faced or what we would do if he relapsed. We were anxious and frightened. Al-Anon gave us the tools to listen to him and help ourselves. In the meetings we were surrounded by people who understood and sympathized with what we were going through. We learned we can only control our own reactions, not anyone else's behavior. We also were able to call on individuals, confidentially, when we needed to talk or just feel supported.
What is shared in an Al-Anon meeting is confidential and you will find understanding, support and hope.

Publishing frequency: 12 issues per year
Indexed/Abstracted in: British Library, CAS, MEDLINE/PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science/Science Citation Index-Expanded
Chair: David Giedroc
Metallomics publishes cutting-edge investigations aimed at elucidating the identification, distribution, dynamics, role and impact of metals and metalloids in biological systems. Studies that address the "what, where, when, how and why" of these inorganic elements in cells, tissues, organisms, and various environmental niches are welcome, especially those employing multidisciplinary approaches drawn from the analytical, bioinorganic, medicinal, environmental, biophysical, cell biology, plant biology and chemical biology communities. We are particularly interested in articles that enhance our chemical and/or physical understanding of the molecular mechanisms of metal-dependent life processes, and those that probe the common space between metallomics and other 'omics approaches to uncover new insights into biological processes.
As we celebrate our 10-year anniversary in 2019, Metallomics seeks to position itself at the forefront of those advances in analytical chemistry destined to clarify the enormous complexity of biological systems. As such, we particularly welcome those papers that outline cutting-edge analytical technologies, e.g., in the development and application of powerful new imaging, spectroscopic and mass spectrometric modalities. Work that describes new insights into metal speciation, trafficking and dynamics in complex systems or as a function of microenvironment are also strongly encouraged. Studies that examine the interconnectivity of metal-dependent processes with systems level responses relevant to organismal health or disease are also strongly encouraged, for example those that probe the effect of chemical exposure on metal homeostasis or the impact of metal-based drugs on cellular processes.
Authors are asked to use the Statement on the "Significance to Metallomics", required upon submission of all manuscripts, as a mechanism to highlight these interdisciplinary advances of significance to the metals in biology and metallomics communities.
Why publish in Metallomics?
By publishing in the journal, your work will receive high impact, interdisciplinary, and international exposure to an interdisciplinary audience. Metallomics is indexed in MEDLINE providing the widest possible access to the contents in the journal. Metallomics authors also benefit from:
- fast times to publication (typically 35 days from receipt to first decision)
- efficient, fair and transparent peer review
- a dedicated editorial service
- hot article promotion
- free colour, PDF reprints and electronic supplementary information (ESI)
- Open access options.
Editorial board
A team of in-house publishing editors is responsible for peer review and editorial decisions. The editorial board chair does not handle the peer review of any manuscripts, however the editorial and advisory boards may be consulted during the peer review process.
The editorial office is pleased to offer advice prior to manuscript submission. Please direct pre-submission enquires to Jeanne Andres, Executive Editor.

Article types
Metallomics publishes:
- Communications
- Full papers
- Critical reviews
- Minireviews
- Tutorial reviews
- Perspectives
- Comments
These must report preliminary research findings that are highly original, of immediate interest and are likely to have a high impact on the metallomics community. Communications are given priority treatment, are fast-tracked through the publication process and appear prominently at the front of the journal in a dedicated Communications section. Communications must include a separate paragraph "Significance to metallomics" statement (no more than 100 words) that states how the work enhances or elucidates our understanding of the role of the metal(s), metalloid(s) or trace element(s) in the biological system. It should not be a summary of the work reported, as in the article's abstract. The statement will be seen by reviewers and if the article is accepted, it will be published in the article. Please note that articles cannot be peer reviewed without this statement.
Ideally, a Full paper in Metallomics should follow each Communication. There is no page limit for communications in Metallomics, however the length should be commensurate with scientific content. Authors are encouraged to make full use of electronic supplementary information in order to present more concise articles.
Full papers
These must represent a significant development in the particular area and are judged according to originality, quality of scientific content and contribution to existing knowledge. Full papers must include a separate paragraph "Significance to metallomics" statement (no more than 100 words) that states how the work enhances or elucidates our understanding of the role of the metal(s), metalloid(s) or trace element(s) in the biological system. It should not be a summary of the work reported, as in the article's abstract. The statement will be seen by reviewers and if the article is accepted, it will be published in the article. Please note that articles cannot be peer reviewed without this statement. Although there is no page limit for Full papers, appropriateness of length to content of new science will be taken into consideration.
Review articles
Metallomics publishes a range of review articles. Potential writers should contact the editorial office before embarking on their work.
Unpublished results must not be presented in Review articles.
Critical reviews
Critical reviews are definitive, comprehensive reviews but must also provide a critical evaluation of the chosen topic area. Authors should try to be selective in the choice of material, whilst still aim to cover all the important work in the field, also indicating possible future developments.
Minireviews are highlights or summaries of research in an emerging area of metallomics-related science covering approximately the last two-three years. Given topics should review work no more than approximately 36 months old, and articles should cover only the most interesting/significant developments in that specific subject area. The articles should be highly critical and selective in referencing published work. A small amount of speculation of possible future developments may also be appropriate in the conclusions section.
Tutorial reviews
Tutorial reviews are written from a personal point of view, and ideally should be the first review of a new significant area, bringing together the results of various primary publications. Tutorial reviews are intended to interest a large number of readers and should be written at a level that could be understood by an advanced undergraduate student.
The intention is to increase awareness and understanding of the chosen topic area for workers/researchers already involved in the field, workers changing the direction/emphasis of their work and a broad based non-specialist (graduate and post-graduate) audience, with a view to informing them of the most recent developments in the area.
Perspectives are written at a philosophical level either on a particular aspect of metallomics or on a topic of relevance or potential relevance to the community. The article should be easily understandable to a non-specialist in the field. At the same time, Perspectives should provide an authoritative discussion of the area concerned. Authors are encouraged to identify areas where further developments are imminent, in urgent need of being addressed, and any areas that may be of significance to the metallomics community in general.
Comments and Replies are a medium for the discussion and exchange of scientific opinions between authors and readers concerning material published in Metallomics.
For publication, a Comment should present an alternative analysis of and/or new insight into the previously published material. Any Reply should further the discussion presented in the original article and the Comment. Comments and Replies that contain any form of personal attack are not suitable for publication.
Comments that are acceptable for publication will be forwarded to the authors of the work being discussed, and these authors will be given the opportunity to submit a Reply. The Comment and Reply will both be subject to rigorous peer review in consultation with the journal's Editorial Board where appropriate. The Comment and Reply will be published together.
Journal specific guidelines
The following guidelines are journal specific. For general guidance on preparing an article please visit our Prepare your article page, the content of which is relevant to all of our journals.
All submitted Communications and Full papers must include a 'Significance to metallomics' statement (no more than 100 words) that states how the work enhances or elucidates our understanding of the role of the metal(s), metalloid(s) or trace element(s) in the biological system.
The statement should be written in plain language that is accessible to a broad, non-technical audience. It should not be a summary of the work reported, as in the article's abstract. The statement will be seen by reviewers and if the article is accepted, it will be published in the article. Please note that articles cannot be peer reviewed without this statement.How to organise your content
An article should have a short, straightforward title directed at the general reader. Lengthy systematic names and complicated and numerous chemical formulae should therefore be avoided where possible.
Author names
Full names for all the authors of an article should be given. To give due acknowledgement to all workers contributing to the work, those who have contributed significantly to the research should be listed as co-authors.
Table of contents entry
This entry should include a colour image (no larger than 8 cm wide and 4 cm high), and 20–30 words of text that highlight the novel aspects of your work.
Every article must be accompanied by a summary (50–250 words) setting out briefly and clearly the main objects and results of the work; it should give the reader a clear idea of what has been achieved.
Significance to metallomics statement
The statement should be no more than 100 words and clearly state how the work enhances or elucidates our understanding of the role of the metal(s), metalloid(s) or trace element(s) in the biological system. It should not be a summary of the work reported, as in the article's abstract. The statement will be seen by reviewers and if the article is accepted, it will be published in the article. Please note that articles cannot be peer reviewed without this statement.
This should give clearly and briefly, with relevant references, both the nature of the problem under investigation and its background.
Descriptions of methods and/or experiments should be given in detail sufficient to enable experienced experimental workers to repeat them.
Results and discussion
It is usual for the results to be presented first, followed by a discussion of their significance. Only strictly relevant results should be presented and figures, tables, and equations should be used for purposes of clarity and brevity. The use of flow diagrams and reaction schemes is encouraged.
This section is for interpretation of the key results and to highlight the novelty and significance of the work. The conclusions should not summarise information already present in the article or abstract. Authors are encouraged to discuss the broader implications of their study on the metallome and/or on the organism's genome, proteome or metabolome. Plans for relevant future work can also be included.
Contributors other than co-authors may be acknowledged in a separate paragraph at the end of the paper; acknowledgements should be as brief as possible. All sources of funding should be declared.
Bibliographic references
These should be listed at the end of the manuscript in numerical order.
Bibliographic details should be cited in the order: year, volume, page, and must include the article title. For example:

A man arrested for selling methamphetamine was sentenced to 14 years in prison Friday, after an exhaustive hearing in Logan County District Court.
Owen Fisher, 30, was arrested on three occasions for possessing "user quantities" of meth.
The first came after a Logan County Special Response Team in May 2011 found Fisher in a garage cleaning a rifle when they executed a search warrant, according to court reports. That raid also led to a child abuse charge after an analysis found "dangerous" trace amounts of meth in hair samples of three of his four children.
Another arrest, which led to two distribution charges, came while he was on bond in 2012.
The prosecution argued that Fisher was playing a victim but was a danger to his family and the community, while the defense argued he was an addict – influenced by an "evil drug," likened to one described in the Bible's version of the Apocalypse – who primarily sold small amounts to his friends.
He was facing 15 charges – 11 of them possession or distribution-related – in three cases. But he pleaded guilty to controlled substance distribution, child abuse and possession of meth, with an added special offender charge for possession of a weapon by a previous offender.
Prosecutors and a pre-sentence investigation report (PSI) requested an 18-year sentence, but District Judge Michael Singer said that amount was too much considering Fisher's lack of prior criminal history.
He was convicted of possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute in 2003.
Thomas Henry, Fisher's attorney, argued that he saw nothing in his history preventing the court from sentencing Fisher to probation. The drug amounts were very small (not like a Mexican drug cartel, trying to sell to kids, he said), and the weapon possession charge was overblown, since Fisher wasn't using it for a criminal purpose.
"I don't think it's a type of quantity fit for 18 years," Henry said. "(And) this is not a weapon he was carrying on a holster, or in a car, or he was possessing and pointing at someone. It's not part of a criminal act."
"He's not wielding a weapon to sell a gram of dope for $100."
He said Fisher needed treatment and that he hadn't committed a heinous crime to anyone but himself and his family.
Deputy District Attorney Travis Sides argued – and Singer later agreed – that the court "rarely sees" meth distribution cases with more than minor amounts. And while Fisher wasn't possession and distributing meth like a Mexican cartel, he was supporting them with his sales.
He agreed that meth did "horrible things to people," as well, but that didn't excuse his actions.
"The damage the defendant has done can't be calculated," Sides said. "But there is one way to judge how tangible the effects were: his family."
He told the court that one of his children has physical defects and another has learning difficulties – though neither were definitively linked to Fisher's drug use – and that his actions have led his wife to meth addiction and his children to live with their grandparents.
Three of Fisher's children tested positive for exposure to meth, but one had the highest levels the test "has ever seen to this day" – three times higher than the amount considered dangerous.
"The defendant isn't the victim here…The defendant's children are the victims here," Sides said. "In the PSI, he talks about himself: 'I've lost my job, I've lost my family.' Those children have lost their parents."
Henry argued that was a misrepresentation, and that he'd seen Fisher cry over what he did to his children.
"I've lost everything because of my addiction, and what hurts especially is my children," Fisher said, after apologizing to the court, his parents and his wife. "I am at fault and there's no excuse for that."
Henry said Fisher voluntarily turned his children over to his wife's parents.
But he went on to vilify meth itself, stressing how difficult it was to get off the drug.
He said he'd heard about a drug in the Bible, where it talks about a drug in the Apocalypse that brought down civilization and wasn't composed of natural ingredients – like meth. He added that the supposed drug in the Bible came from two parts of the world, and that meth took some form from Hitler and another from Japan.
Both methamphetamine and crystal methamphetamine were created in Japan, and Adolf Hitler used meth as medication, according to historians.
Singer later said he was aware of the nature of meth and its effects on people, but defended the seriousness of the crime.

This is really the key. When we talk about individual 'templates' we consider motivations and past experiences, as well as personal beliefs.
I am with Josann here in choosing a style well proven and respected the world over, such as Uechi, and then add what we individually perceive is needed.
In my view you will not find street tactics and strategies in most martial arts styles as they will at best provide us with 'tool boxes' _ read Rory's books and you will understand the reasons why.
My personal template, for example, is a combination of the extremely effective Uechi style, and the training and tactical concepts by Lethal Force trainers, from empty hands to weapons, the very best combination there is.
The deadly force trainers would also touch upon the sometimes contrary 'Hick's law' principle, in ways not usually perceived by people. I.e., Hick's Law simply deals with the relationship between REACTION TIME and NUMBER OF CHOICES.
What is not much understood is _ that time, and emotional energy it takes to make a decision, increases as the number of indistinct alternatives increases.
There is a lot of emotional stress that comes when people are overwhelmed with too many choices. People can worry about making the wrong choice, worry about not understanding the differences of each choice or worry that they are spending far too much time figuring out what to choose.
And all this can happen subconsciously.
As to the 'tooling' Which I equate to styles…during the deadly force training, the instructors were clear on the type of weapon [tool] we brought with us, explaining that the particular weapon should, from then on, remain the only one to be relied upon for lethal force encounters … should we find ourselves in real need of one.
As to tactics, they were of the simplest kind, without too many choices in order to not add more confusion to the chaotic state of mind one would be in.

You must! You shall! Colorado legislators decide which one
I couldn't write it any better than this press release — plus it's 9:30 — so straight from the House Dems press office, a brite on a strange but intriguing bill:
It's a bill only a lawyer or a linguist could love — but it actually is important.
Must "must" be used in Colorado's statutes when "a person or thing is required to meet a condition for a consequence to apply"? Shall "shall" mean that "a person has a duty"?
Apparently so, according to the House Judiciary Committee, which voted 11-0 to approve HB13-1029, a bill by Rep. Claire Levy (D-Boulder) entitled, "Concerning the Use of Authority Verbs in the Colorado Revised Statutes."
Jeffrey Ruebel of the Colorado Defense Lawyers Association testified that "shall" should be used when the legislature wants to impose a duty, e.g., "you shall shovel your sidewalk" obliges the homeowner to remove ice and snow.
Rep. Levy's co-prime sponsor, Rep. Bob Gardner (R-Colorado Springs), gave the example of a person who has a ruling go against him. He has no duty to appeal it, but if he decides to appeal he "must" take certain procedural steps.
If you're confused, you're not alone. Rep. Gardner, the previous chairman of the Judiciary Committee, got it backwards in his opening remarks and described "must" as the "duty" verb.
Rep. Levy told the new chairman, Rep. Daniel Kagan (D-Cherry Creek Village), that the bill would give guidance to the courts about the legislature's intent in any legislation approved after this bill is passed. No prior legislation would be affected by the bill.
"We can have a lot of fun with this, and we probably will on the floor, but it actually, I think, will help clarify some things," Rep. Levy said. "It's a good bill that will help us do our jobs better."

The main reason for this upgrade was for security reasons. phpBB 2.0 is no longer being supported and the last thing we want is some Brazilian script kiddie coming around and defacing the forum (*coughDaichicough*).
This is a list of changes from phpBB 2.x that I can list on the top of my head. Ones in color are NOT open to debate from users:
- All Passwords must now be complex. You will be prompted to change your password when you log in.
- User names may not contain Unicode characters. This means only roman characters, numbers, and spacers. Anyone who is in violation of this may message me or any other admin to change your username.
- Other changes to come, none of which people will like. [Message, we'll go over everything we plan here after a staff meeting]
- phpBB 3.0 mirrormoon forum theme. Yes, we don't like the current theme.
- 5/3 - Smiles are not working correctly yet.
- 5/3 - Posting seems slow. FIXED 5/3 - TheXev
- 5/3 - Admin/Global Mods colors are not showing up correctly for everyone. However, your privileges should be of the correct level.
- 5/3 - Many post/private messages/signatures/etc/email settings many not have proper encoding. Please correct or edit your own post/private messages/signatures/etc to correct these issues if you see them. I recommend all users to check all of your profile changes upon first log-in.
- 5/4 - Imagines inside of spoilers are not displaying correctly.
I would like all users to list any issues not currently listed. I will be updating the list of issues with status. Please do not repost an issue if it has already been posted or is listed in this post.
Please leave any feedback, suggestions, and bug reports in relation to the forum here.
PS - Congrats to phib for causing the final converter to fail. Yes, the forum might have been up last week... but I had to track down phib's evA1 post.

As near as I can tell,
NotebookPrint goes directly to the default printer, without employing the system standard process of opening a print dialog first.
Specifically, I'd like to he able to use
NotebookPrint, or an alternative function,
somePrintFunction to print an arbitrary expression,
expr, using the form
and have the standard system dialog for printing appear.
Is there a way to force
NotebookPrint to do this? Is there some other function that does?

We had the opportunity to check out Philips' uWand pointing interface at a media briefing today. If you have experienced point-and-click controllers such as LG's Magic Motion or Nintendo's "Wiimote" previously, then it isn't hard to imagine what Philips' remote can do. However, there are differences between Philips' pointing dynamics and those offered by its adversaries.
Philips' uWand can be categorized as a direct-pointing technology. Essentially, the cursor appears wherever you point the stick at. The remote houses an integrated camera, which in turn interacts with LED "beacons" to determine the onscreen cursor's position. What's more, it also offers 3D capabilities. In other words, uWand has the ability to register movements on the z-axis apart from conventional navigational actions made on the x and y axis.
Given the proliferation of Smart TVs which tout applications like web browsers and interactive gaming content, it does make a lot sense to exploit a direct-pointing device as opposed to traditional button-based remotes. LG's Magic Motion, on the other hand, is a relative-pointing device which depends on a gyroscope and sensors to gauge distance and movement. That's to say the remote device can only measure motion based on an initial reference point.
Philips does not not manufacture any uWand hardware of their own. However, Philips is offering their patented technology to remote control and TV vendors to incorporate into their devices. According to Mr Navin Natoewal, General Manager of uWand, integration only requires about US$4 on the vendor's part. As it stands, the Dutch company is pretty tight-lipped as to which manufacturer will feature uWand, although they did reveal arrival dates towards the latter part of the year.
Incidentally, D-Link's Boxee point-and-click remote control actually brandishes Philips' tech as it is unknown to some. Then again, it is not the uWand though.

Halloween Town is where you'll find the "Pumpkin King" Jack Skellington. He is the extra long and lanky skeleton character in Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. He is the main character in this movie that has a dog named Zero that has a ghostly body and a skeleton face with a red nose like Rudolf. His lovely lady friend Sally, who is a rag doll that absolutely loves Jack, always tries to get Jack Skellington's attention. I was just surfing the web and seen a lot of the Pumpkin King everywhere. Yet I didn't find a place where I could learn "how to draw Jack Skellington" at all online. So of course I said to myself "let me put one up" so I did just that. In this tutorial I will show you "how to draw Jack Skellington" from The Nightmare Before Christmas step by step. The instructions are really easy to read and follow. He is nothing more than a bunch of lines and bones. The hardest part about drawing Jack is making those straight lines in Photoshop, which was annoying. The sketch on paper only took like an hour and a half. But I managed to finally get it done after three hours. I drew him standing on top of the famous hill in the movie that looks like a shriveled up hat. I was going to draw Sally with him, but I thought I would let you decide if you wanted her in the picture. Anyway have a blast "drawing Jack Skellington". After your done upload it online and let me see how it came out, that way there you can comment on mine and I can comment on yours. Peace out people.

How can we profit from the world's forests without destroying them? This beautiful Caribbean island may hold answers.
Have a question?
How would you prefer us to contact you?
By EmailBy Phone
Help monitor a sustainable hardwood grove while hiking through beautiful tropical forests- collecting observations on native plants, birds, lizards and frogs- including some of the rarest species on Earth!
Welcome to the rainforest of Puerto Rico, where each night the coquí frogs chirp and the smooth, pale bark of the tabonucu trees glows in the moonlight. This rich land needs your protection, as do forests across the world.
Humans have extensively used most of Puerto Rico's forests over the past few centuries, clearing them for agriculture, coffee plantations, and pastures and harvesting wood for fuel. Now, as more people move to cities, urban sprawl threatens the forests. Much of the already harvested lands have reverted to secondary forest—that is, they have grown over with a second generation of trees—and are ignored until it's profitable to exploit them again.
You'll help learn how we can benefit from the rainforest without diminishing its resources and diversity. Because we're looking at the health of the whole rainforest, you'll try your hand at a wide array of activities: monitoring areas where different forest management techniques are being tested to see how healthy the trees are, planting native tree species, counting and observing birds, and—depending on what season you join the project—scouring the forest vegetation for the tiny coquís and anole lizards.
With your help, these researchers, and ultimately all of us, can become better stewards of our forests.
Each year people cut down between three and six billion trees in the world's forests, according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization.
Trees alone can't show a forest's health—we need to know how what we do to the trees shapes the animal populations that call the forest home.
If we want to keep profiting from forests, we must understand their ecology—in other words, how all of the organisms in them coexist. Ecological research can lead to smart management plans that will help us conserve the forests for the future as we continue to use the trees and the cleared land. In the case of Puerto Rico, ecologically sound management plans can also bolster the island's economy: the forests' diverse species are a big draw for tourists.
As an Earthwatcher, you'll join forces with Las Casas de la Selva, which manages and researches a beautiful section of secondary-growth rainforest. The area around Las Casas' base is particularly well suited for studying forest management because humans have dramatically shaped it. They've cleared much of it for agriculture and grazing, and because a lot of the land slopes steeply, it erodes severely once the plants are gone. Unless farmers heavily apply chemical fertilizers to this nutrient-depleted land, they get poor crops.
Earthwatch volunteers will be trained in a variety of tasks, which may include counting lizards or frogs.
Already, the data collected with the help of Earthwatchers have led us to implement new land-management plans and figure out how to direct our future research studies. The Las Casas project, with the contribution volunteers like you have made, has become a living demonstration of new models for forest management in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean.
You'll visit the stunning rainforest on the southeastern side of Puerto Rico, near the wilds of El Yunque National Forest and beautiful beaches. El Yunque, the most visited rainforest in the Caribbean, also happens to be the only tropical U.S. National Forest. The island also has outstanding examples of karst (otherworldly limestone formations) and one of the largest river cave systems in the Western Hemisphere.
As a U.S. territory, Puerto Rico has a culture that blends typical American food and stores with Hispanic and Caribbean tradition. The island is famed for its music, including salsa, bachata, and reggaeton (a Puerto Rican original). During your visit, you'll likely visit a popular fixture of the mountainous part of the island where you'll be staying: the lechonera, a small restaurant open only on the weekends that serves spit-roasted pig along with various other Puerto Rican dishes.
This is a summary:
Because these researchers are examining the health of the whole rainforest ecosystem, you'll experience a rich array of research activities during your stay. You'll work on a selection of the following studies:
In the late afternoon, your team will return to the homestead, where you'll help with a critical part of quality scientific research—entering the data collected that day. Then enjoy dinner and maybe attend a talk on ecology or walk to the river.
On at least one afternoon, the team will take a break to visit the local town, Guavate, for barbecue and music or head to Patillas for a few hours at the beach. You'll also take a full-day trip to somewhere interesting on the island—to Old San Juan, perhaps, the district of the capital city that boasts many old colonial buildings and forts, museums, shopping, and restaurants.

Thrity "3t" Vakil, president of Tropic Ventures Education and Research Foundation, has worked in this rainforest for over a decade. Along with managing volunteer youth groups and all Earthwatch expeditions, she has a hand in every aspect of forestry, including tree and vine identification and research; selection of trees for harvest; logging and sawing operations; and marketing and selling of sustainably grown and harvested wood, wood products, and nonwood forest products. Born in Kenya, she has always been an avid explorer of nature, and her travels have taken her all over the world. She is also an accomplished painter, web and graphic designer, documentarian, and photographer.
Stay in a bunkhouse or in a platform tent protected by a roof among the majestic tabonuco and blue mahoe trees of Puerto Rico's rainforest. You'll be near Las Casas de la Selva's headquarters, which has an open-air dining and lounging area. There, after a hot shower, you can relax in a hammock once you've finished fieldwork for the day. At night you'll fall asleep to the sound of coquí frogs singing from the trees.
The project has many great chefs on staff, so you'll get a chance to sample Caribbean cooking and other cuisines. You can expect lots of rice and beans, fresh salads, and sandwiches to take into the field for lunch. Local fruits, vegetables, and seasonal greens from the garden make an appearance in meals as often as possible.

This trip was extremely rewarding and I will cherish it for the rest of my life. It was very educationally valuable and allowed me to extend my knowledge of ecology and biology. The facilitator and scientist were super kind and positive, and their enthusiasm made the trip all that more fun. I also loved exploring the local beach and Old San Juan. Although the group was small, we formed a bond and had a lot of fun together. Everyone was always encouraging and open-minded. There was always something to do; even during free time there were new plants and animals to check out. The hiking was super fun and appropriately challenging; being in a gorgeous rainforest made the day anything but boring. I already find myself using the knowledge I gained on this trip. I really liked learning about this incredible ecosystem and have a new appreciation for frogs and the rainforest wildlife in general. This is an experience that was definitely worth my time and money.

I've came here for the teen expedition during the summer with no past experience with hiking or any type of outdoorsy activity. For one of the days, we went on a super long hike. It was so strenuous, keep that in mind. We caught frogs in their natural habitat and tested them for disease; that was one of my favorite days. Also, we collected data on Styrax and Cornutia trees scattered in the rainforest and dug up seedlings that wouldn't have survived in the forest on their own so we took them to the nursery in the homestead (we collected 320 seedlings! A record!)
Overall, this was an eye opening experience, unlike anything else I have ever done. It was incredible to see the beauty of the rainforest in its natural state. The hiking, although strenuous, helped me build strength and perseverance. 3T and Norman were extremely knowledgeable and passionate; it was a great pleasure working with them. The adult volunteers were also very kind and helped me get through the hikes as it got rough. The other teens and I bonded very quickly and created lifelong memories that I will cherish forever. The food was AMAZING, so you don't have to worry about that (thanks Magha!). The showers and amenities were clean and fine (although the showers could either be really hot or really cold). All in all, I miss Puerto Rico, this experience, and the people with all my heart. And I would most likely be returning on this expedition when I get older :)
Choose this if you can!

This was the best ten days of my summer, and a SPECTACULAR experience. Everyone at Las Casas were great teachers and leaders, and since I went on a teen team, I had two wonderful, supportive, and funny coordinators (Jackie and Amy). Las Casas is a beautiful sustainability station in the rainforest, and it felt like home within the first day (I loved the common dining area that let us spend time with everyone, and the animals were so great!). It was really conducive to a great team experience! The research was also really exciting; because Marta was visiting, we got to survey for birds at several stops along the trail multiple times a day in addition to monitoring the forest. We were woken up by chimes early in the morning, grabbed a breakfast and packed a lunch, and we began to hike as the birds woke up. After spending the morning out in the field (mud...and gorgeous rainforest, but a lot of mud), we'd return to rest and then either go back out or do something recreational, like hiking to a swimming hole/waterfall on the property or taking a salsa lesson from the lovely Alyssa. I feel like I learned so much and I fell in love with the place...3t and Andres have done a wonderful job of making a peaceful yet exciting center for research.
A word of advice - find time at least once to just sit in the theatre and think. It's gorgeous and a lizard genuinely sat on my leg without me noticing because I was so relaxed! Also, bring gaiters.
(and the food is amazing)

This was my first Earthwatch expedition and i was only 13. At first it was a little intimidating to be in a different country, but it was soo worth it! I absolutely loved it. My favorite memory was being in the rainforest and hearing this loud thundering noise and wondering what it was. Seconds later i was completely soaked from head to toe from the flash flood. It was an exhilarating experience. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone!

Dynamic bearing loads
Calculating dynamic bearing loads
The loads acting on a bearing can be calculated according to the laws of mechanics if the external forces, such as forces from power transmission, work forces or inertial forces, are known or can be calculated. When calculating the load components for a single bearing, the shaft is considered as a beam resting on rigid, moment-free supports for the sake of simplification. Elastic deformations in the bearing, the housing or the machine frame are not considered, nor are the moments produced in the bearing as a result of shaft deflection.
These simplifications are necessary if a bearing arrangement is to be calculated without a computer program. The standardized methods for calculating basic load ratings and equivalent bearing loads are based on similar assumptions.
It is possible to calculate bearing loads based on the theory of elasticity, without making the above assumptions, but this requires the use of complex computer programs. In these programs, the bearings, shaft and housing are considered as resilient components of a system.
If external forces and loads like inertial forces or loads resulting from the weight of a shaft and its components are not known, they can be calculated. However, when determining work forces and loads, e.g. rolling forces, moment loads, unbalanced loads and shock loads, it may be necessary to rely on estimates based on experience with similar machines or bearing arrangements.
Geared transmissionsWith geared transmissions, the theoretical tooth forces can be calculated from the power transmitted and the design characteristics of the gear teeth. However, there are additional dynamic forces, produced either by the gear, or by the input or output shaft. Additional dynamic forces from gears can be the result of form errors of the teeth and from unbalanced rotating components. Because of the requirements for quiet running, gears are made to such a high level of accuracy that these forces are generally negligible, and not considered when making bearing calculations.
Additional forces arising from the type and mode of operation of the machines coupled to the transmission can only be determined when the operating conditions are known. Their influence on the rating lives of the bearings is considered using an "operation" factor that takes shock loads and the efficiency of the gears into account. Values of this factor for different operating conditions can usually be found in information published by the gear manufacturer.
Belt drivesWhen calculating bearing loads for belt driven applications, "belt pull" must be taken into consideration. Belt pull, which is a circumferential load, depends on the amount of torque being transmitted. The belt pull must be multiplied by a factor, which depends on the type of belt, belt tension and any additional dynamic forces. Belt manufacturers usually publish values. However, should information not be available, the following values can be used:
|toothed belts
|1,1 to 1,3
|1,2 to 2,5
|plain belts
|1,5 to 4,5
The larger values apply when the distance between shafts is short, for heavy or shock-type duty, or where belt tension is high.

Police was formed approximately about 70 years ago, during the kingdom of A-Sultan Mohamed Shamsudhdheen III. It was established by a Law that was announced on 29th March 1933.
There were 120 officers in the police when it was first established. Their duty was to patrol the market area and the island. In other words, establishing peace amongst the citizens and protecting the people and their belongings. Just as today's patrols, Police had their duty shifts during then too. They wore uniforms while on duty. The uniform consisted of Maldivian Traditional dress- Mundu & Libaas, Black Cap and Belts. They used batons while on duty and also had whistles with them. If Police needed help while on duty, the protection and help of military was available as the Law stated.
