DISTANT LAND: Even though getting to Avalon on Santa Catalina Island is a snap -- if you define "a snap" as being easy as buying a boat ticket and clearing a day -- it can still feel like a bit of an Adventure. That's Adventure with a capital A, and those don't tend to come around much these days. Because one of Catalina's quirks -- nay, charms -- is that it boasts a remoteness in a world where few things feel hard to obtain. And that the island's remoteness is only 22 miles or so from one of the planet's largest metropolises charms further.
BUT... what's more remote than Avalon? There's another community that's even further out of reach, tantalizingly so: Two Harbors. It's up the island a piece, meaning that day-trippers infrequently miss it. Not out of choice; they've heard of the beauty of Two Harbors and its funky-free spirit. But getting there has always required a little bit more. Now there's a chance to get to know Catalina's Second City (we hope Two Harborians won't mind us using that term, as we use it lovingly). Meet the Discover Catalina Package.
ACTUALLY... there are two new packages that put Two Harbors in the spotlight. The Discover Catalina is a two-nighter, with accommodations in both Avalon and Two Harbors. The Discover Two Harbors Adventure is a Saturday and Sunday thing. You hop on a '50s-era flexible bus in Avalon and head over the hills to the village, where you can muck about for 90 minutes or so. Both packages are well worth digging into, if this is an area of the island that remains unknown to you. But that's the fun part, yes? The unknownness? Not everything in Southern California is so reachable, after all (and that's rather nice).

I have the need to treat a std::array<float>, which is of even length N, as if it was a std::array<complex> of length N / 2. If it was a bare array, I could just type-cast it like this:
Is there ANY way to accomplish this with std::array? As of yet, the only way I can see is to make a new array and copy the elements over to it. But this is a common trick when implementing fast Fourier transforms, and the code base uses std::array prolifically.Code:float real[N]; complex *pComplex = reinterpret_cast<complex *>(real);

Scottish Water is asking the public to use water wisely to help maintain supplies during the current period of hot summer weather.
Following a sustained dry period without any significant rainfall, usage of water has increased significantly.
With the current weather conditions forecast to continue, Scottish Water is encouraging people to take simple but important steps to conserve our public water supplies.
In some areas there has been a 30 per cent increase in demand for water, and an additional 140 million litres are currently being produced and pushed through the system every day to meet current customer usage.
People are being asked to reduce usage wherever possible. Businesses are also being asked to consider their usage and how they can use water more efficiently. Simple, practical steps which we encourage include:
• Taking shorter showers;
• Using a watering can rather than a hose to water plants;
• Using a bucket rather than a hose to wash vehicles;
• Only wash windscreens/lights instead of the whole vehicle;
• Turning off taps in the home whenever possible;
• Using washing machines and dishwashers fully loaded.
Peter Farrer, Scottish Water's chief operating officer, said: "Water usage levels during the current hot summer weather, particularly during peak times such as morning and early evening, mean we are working around the clock to get water around the system quickly enough.
"Scotland's public water supply is the lifeblood of the country, for household and business customers. We usually supply more than 1.3 billion litres a day to customers.
"We have a strong and resilient distribution network to keep our customers supplied but we're asking everyone to play their part in helping us as Scotland enjoys its hottest and driest summer in many years."
Environment Secretary Roseanna Cunningham added: "Scottish Water is managing current levels of water usage closely, and I encourage people everywhere, whether using water at home, or in their business, to work with Scottish Water and follow their helpful advice and suggestions to use water wisely."
Advice is available at the Scottish Water website or call the Customer Helpline on 0800 0778778.

Atlanta 27, San Diego 3: Matt Ryan threw for 275 yards and three touchdowns and the Falcons destroyed Philip Rivers and the Chargers. Rivers, by the way, had two interceptions on the day—both to Thomas DeCoud (who also recovered a fumble)—and a scant 173 yards passing. Atlanta remains undefeated on the year. San Diego is 2-1. Luckily for Norv and the boys, the get to play our friends the Chiefs and Saints in the next two weeks so the offense should get back on track.
The Norv: Whaddya think those jerseys are made of? Polyester? Mesh? Well, now that's an interesting question—what is mesh made of? Cotton? Can shirts be made of things other than polyester, mesh or cotton? Oh wow, how do ya like that? Game started.

While we all know about the Hellyer Park Velodrome in San Jose, there's a lot more to the history of track racing here than you'd ever know.
Thanks to Tracy Delphia, we have a fairly good history of track racing. Tracy wrote about the sport for her master's degree as San Jose State. It's our good fortune to have this excellent paper available online.
It's no surprise Tracy talked to Clyde Arbuckle, a walking encyclopedia about San Jose history in his day. He's no longer with us, nor is his son. It's too bad because they were both cycling authorities.
Most of her paper focuses on the short-lived but popular Garden City Velodrome (1936-1940) located at Wabash and Olive avenues, next to present-day Abraham Lincoln High School and the Rose Garden.
I've watched a few races at the Hellyer track. It's a blast to see the riders speed around the concrete oval but the location in south San Jose doesn't lend itself to drawing a crowd. I wish it were closer.

Seeing is an incredibly powerful ability. Most of us rely on it for almost everything we do. Here are some steps you can take to protect your eyes – now and in the long term.
Regular eye tests - An eye examination is a vital health check. It can discover and help prevent conditions that could harm your vision – or your wellbeing. Quick, simple and painless, regular eye examinations can protect your sight and your health.
Know your family history - Some eye diseases can be genetic. Common hereditary eye conditions include age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma and cataracts. Early detection is often the key to successful management or treatment, so it is important to know your family's health history.
Healthy lifestyle - A healthy diet gives you nutrients, vitamins and anti-oxidants to help protect your eyes against harmful UV light and prevent certain eye conditions. Also, exercise helps prevent high blood pressure, which can damage the vision. Together, these two factors can help maintain a healthy body weight and prevent diabetes, which can lead to vision loss in adults.
Digital adjustment - It is important to protect your eyes against the potentially harmful effects of extended computer, laptop and smartphone use. Adjusting screen brightness, resolution and contrast, taking regular screen breaks and avoiding bright sunlight can help prevent the symptoms of Computer Vision Syndrome.
UV protection - UV rays can be as harmful to your eyes as to your skin – and we are exposed to UV light every day, whatever the conditions. For everyday protection, glasses wearers can opt for an anti-UV coating on their lenses. And when out in the sun, sunglasses with a high Eye-Sun Protection Factor (E-SPF)* will help block out harmful rays.
Injury prevention - Common eye injuries can be avoided with the right eye protection. According to the American Academy of Optometry, half of eye injuries result from everyday tasks such as cooking, cleaning, gardening and DIY. Some sports and outdoor activities, such as cycling, skiing and squash, also increase the risk of eye injury.

Excerpt From
Star Wars: The Last Jedi
Posted By
Random House has published
an excerpt
from Michael Reaves and Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff's upcoming novel
Star Wars: The Last Jedi
. The excerpt covers part of the first chapter and opens thusly:
?Sakiyan freighter Far Ranger requesting clearance for departure.?
I-Five?s mimicry of Tuden Sal?s gruff voice was flawless. No one listening?or, more to the point, no vocal analyzer scanning?would know that, in reality, the Sakiyan merchant was sitting in a safe house somewhere in the twilight warren near the Westport, plotting infamy against the Empire. No one, that was, except for the Far Ranger?s crew and her lone passenger.
Jax Pavan, his hands on the Far Ranger?s steering yoke, realized he was holding his breath as he waited for the Westport flight dispatcher to approve their departure plan. He let his tension go with a soft rush of air and ignored the urge to reach out with the Force to give the dispatcher a nudge. It was tempting, but best not to take the chance. Even something as minor as that could alert Darth Vader to their movements . . . if Vader was, against all odds, still alive.
Click through to
Random House's product page
to read the rest of the excerpt.
The Last Jedi
will be released on February 26, 2013. As an addendum, it should be noted that this book is no longer part of the
Coruscant Nights
series (which is back to being a trilogy) -- it's now a standalone followup to the series.

Beth Ehlers is on her way to ABC and All My Children's Pine Valley, and they're all damn lucky to have her. But for the second time in just a few months, P&G and CBS have made the boneheaded move of allowing someone who was woven deeply into the tapestry of a show to walk away. P&G clearly hasn't learned from the loss of As the World Turns' Martha Byrne (the definitive Lily) and made the same mistake twice! They've let another beloved performer walk away with the audience's heart and a big chunk of the tapestry of the show with all of the history and memories attached. This is something few recasts can ever replace, no matter how hard they try!
It's hard to not be nostalgic and mournful. How do you let years of history and connections walk away? Harley — and Ehlers — had a connection with nearly everyone on the Guiding Light canvas.
Harley was one of the most complex [Read more…]

text: At this Monday's Montreal R User Group meeting, Arthur Charpentier gave an interesting talk on the subject of quantile regression. One of the main messages I took away from the workshop was that quantile regression can be used to determine if extreme events are becoming more extreme. The example given was hurricane intensity since 1978.

The Information Technology & Innovation Foundation has released a report arguing support for the adoption of President Obama's recently proposed $1 billion National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NMMI). The Foundation says that even in economic hard times, the benefits from establishing such a center would far outweigh the up-front costs. If NMMI is approved, it could take on a "catalytic" role, spurring the private sector into further action. Here are the first few paragraphs of the report:
The United States lacks an integrated, well-funded national network of large-scale, industry-led manufacturing innovation centers. Leading manufacturing nations around the world, from Germany to Taiwan, have such centers, which accelerate technology deployment, operate demonstration facilities and test beds, support education and training, and perform applied research on new manufacturing processes, among other activities. The proposed National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI) would fill this void. This report explains why action on this proposal is vital to U.S. manufacturing competitiveness and worthy of investment even in a time of tight budget constraints. It then articulates key principles that should guide the development of the NNMI.
America needs a National Network for Manufacturing Innovation. This paper sets forth the argument for this proposition in two parts. The first part makes the case for an innovation-centered national manufacturing policy. It lays out key challenges facing the U.S. manufacturing sector, advances reasons why the nation should care about manufacturing, and sets forth the rationale for an active federal role in fostering manufacturing innovation. Crucially, this role should be catalytic, not directive; federal actions should spur other key players, especially the private sector, into action and foster stronger collaboration among them.
The second half of the paper articulates five key principles that should govern the design of the NNMI. These principles are:
- A focus within each of the NNMI's constituent Institutes on significant, industrydefined innovation challenges, particularly in process innovation;
- Support for the full innovation process, including technology roadmapping, applied research, operation of demonstration facilities and testbeds that benefit small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMEs), education and training at all levels, and development of standards and credentials;
- Collaboration among academia, business, government, and other partners, led by manufacturers;
- A bottom-up competitive process, managed by the federal government, to identify innovation focus areas and select collaborative teams;
- Private-public co-investment, with manufacturers providing about 50 percent of each Institute's resources and federal and state agencies carrying most of the balance

The Top 7 Foods for Runners
Small Bagel with Peanut Butter
For runners, food does more than just squelch hunger. It also fuels your muscles and keeps you healthy.
"Runners need quality foods that provide a 'spark plug' for their energy," says Nancy Clark, RD, MS, and author of the Food Guide for Marathoners. These seven "elite" foods for runners will help you feel your best — and keep you up and running.
Small Bagel with Peanut Butter
If you're a morning runner, you know it can be tough to hit the road on an empty stomach. It's been several hours since your last meal the night before, and your energy stores are low. Eating a 100- to 300-calorie snack before your morning run can give you energy and staying power, says Clark. This quick-and-easy snack has carbs and protein, plus it's easy to digest.
Blaine Moats
If you need a carb-packed energy-booster before an afternoon run, it's hard to go wrong with a banana. A bonus: Bananas contain loads of potassium, which regulates blood pressure and reduces the risk of stroke.
Try these healthy recipes:
Peanut Butter & Banana Smoothie
Whole-Grain Cereal with Banana
Lynn Klapperich
Your legs can take a pounding from high-impact activities like running; soreness you feel after a hard run may be caused by micro-tears in the exercised muscles. That's why, in addition to their high fiber content, berries are a good option for runners: the vitamin C and potassium they contain help the body repair itself.
Try these healthy recipes:
This nutritional powerhouse has vitamin C, potassium, fiber, and phytochemicals, all key for peak performance and health, says Clark.
Try these healthy recipes:
Marinated Broccoli
Broccoli and Cheddar Soup
Broccoli with Toasted Garlic
Ted Morrison
Low-Fat Yogurt
Running and other weight-bearing exercise can help you improve your bone density. But calcium is essential part of the equation, and many runners don't get enough. One cup of yogurt contains a third of your recommended daily intake of calcium. Plus, yogurt has protein — important for building muscle and recovering from tough workouts.
Try these healthy recipes:
Greek Yogurt with Oranges and Mint
Yogurt with Almonds and Strawberries
Yogurt with Honey and Sunflower Seeds
Blaine Moats
Lean Beef
In addition to being a quality protein source, beef is high in iron, an especially important element for runners. (Iron deficiency can lead to fatigue.) For vegetarians, beans, peas, green leafy vegetables, and iron-fortified cereals are good sources of iron.
Try these healthy recipes:
Portobello-Smothered Beef Medallions
Chunky White Bean Soup
Black Bean Couscous
Wild Salmon
In addition to being a good protein source, salmon contains loads of heart-healthy omega-3 fats, which can counteract inflammation and fend off disease.
Try these healthy recipes:
Salmon with Sweet Glaze
Seared Salmon with Cherry Tomato Sauce
Broiled Salmon Fillets with Hummus Sauce

SAN DIEGO - Fans expecting to see a snippet of the new "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." television show Friday at Comic-Con got a surprise instead - the chance to see the entire debut episode.
Thousands of fans went wild when Marvel executive Jeph Loeb and series creator Joss Whedon surprised them with the episode, which features Clark Gregg as Agent Coulson, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent everyone thought died in Marvel's recent blockbuster film "The Avengers."
"I've got to say it's a little hot in here," Loeb said, taking off an over shirt to reveal a T-shirt with the words "Coulson Lives" on the back. The crowd started chanting "Coulson! Coulson! Coulson!"
That was just the beginning of the cheers, laughs and even tears - from Gregg, who got choked up when talking about the chance to return to the Marvel universe after appearing to die in a key moment in "The Avengers."
"I'm a longtime Marvel fan and I can't believe this is happening to me," Gregg said as he got a little misty after hugging Whedon for an uncomfortably long period of time. "I didn't like being dead, but I really liked my death. And then I met Lola."
"Lola" is Agent Coulson's suped-up red Stingray Corvette that's not quite as vintage as it looks.
Without revealing too many details to ruin the debut for fans not at Comic-Con, the show follows Coulson as he builds a team of fellow agents to deal with the growing problem created in a world quickly changing because of superheroes and their foes, alien visitors and Norse god appearances.
Fast-paced and full of comic moments that don't always require a deep knowledge of comic books, the episode laid the groundwork for the series with several subplots that will play out over time. Until Friday, little had been revealed about the ABC show set to debut Sept. 24.
Most of the show's cast attended, including Ming-Na Wen (Agent Melinda May), Chloe Bennett (Skye), Iain De Caestecker (Agent Leo Fitz), Elizabeth Henstridge (Agent Jemma Simmons) and Brett Dalton (Agent Grant Ward). Dalton got a wolf whistle from the crowd, leading to laughter.
"Yeah, we've got a really unattractive cast," Loeb joked.

Hey guys, I'm back with more drawing fun and to start I will be uploading two tutorials that where supposed to go up yesterday. I didn't submit them because I got so burnt out from uploading nine tutorials in one whole day. So here I am with "how to draw Thor easy", step by step. Thor is another superhero that will be in the new Avengers film which is coming to theaters on Friday. I'm not too familiar with Thor, and as of today I have never uploaded a lesson on him before. Another artist did make a tutorial on drawing Thor in a really nice comic book style. I can point you in the right direction of you want to check out that lesson on Thor if you want. Anyways, this lesson is going to be really easy to follow which is going to make tackling this tutorial really fun. There isn't too many things that I regret, but I do regret not making a drawing on Thor myself. I hope you like this submission, I will be back in a jiffy with the other tutorial I was talking about. Peace out folks and enjoy! Also, if you would like to learn how to color Thor, check out Idrawgirls.com for that because there is a really good lesson there.

Economic and Strategy Viewpoint
February 2015
Schroders senior economists see risks of deflation in the eurozone and a hard landing in China but upside potential from a G7 boom, lower energy prices and fiscal stimulus in the eurozone.
In this month's Viewpoint:
- Forecast update: Global tilt toward advanced economies
- European forecast update: Upgrades all round
- EM forecast update: Oil on troubled waters or fuel for the fire?
- Views at a glance
Forecast update: Global tilt toward advanced economies (page 2)
• An acceleration in the advanced economies is offset by weaker growth in the emerging markets to leave our global growth forecast at 2.8% in 2015. Lower oil prices, a stronger US dollar and Fed tightening tip the benefits of growth toward the developed markets. "Beggar thy neighbour" currency devaluation should help the Eurozone and Japan beat consensus, but at the expense of others.
• Inflation in the advanced economies is expected to record its lowest rate for five years in 2015, but pick up in 2016 as the impact of the lower energy price fades. We do not expect the Eurozone or the wider world economy to slip into sustained deflation, although our scenario analysis shows the risks to the baseline are still weighted in this direction.
European forecast update: Upgrades all round (page 7)
• It is a sea of green in Europe as we upgrade our growth forecast across the board. In the Eurozone, lower energy prices, a depreciating euro, stronger banks and ECB QE should all help lift growth in 2015 and 2016. The forecast for the UK has also been revised up, but the economy is on a slowing trend. Lower energy prices will help provide a soft landing.
Emerging market forecast update: Oil on troubled waters or fuel for the fire? (page 11)
• Oil's decline has a mixed impact on the BRIC economies, with Russia an obvious loser. While inflation falls in India and China, the growth benefit is limited, and Brazil's domestic problems outweigh international considerations. Meanwhile, the Fed hike looms and emerging markets are still looking vulnerable.

An Iowa man once came to Florida after buying a plot of land and, after having seen what he had purchased, said "I have bought land by the acre, and I have bought land by the foot; but, by God, I have never before bought land by the gallon."
He was one of many who bought land in South Florida at the turn of the 20th century during one of Florida's biggest land booms. Spurred on by the expansion of the railroad and ambitious plans to drain the Everglades for development, land speculators bought up thousands of acres of swampland and prepared to sell it to investors and settlers from the Midwest and Northeast. Some historians refer to this feverish period of land speculation as the "swamp boom," and the folks involved as "swamp boomers." Read more

In legend, antagonists/monsters/loot-on-legs are made the exact same way as PC's, though less restricted.
I have always loved hordes in epic fantasy, but the rules make this hard to portray at lower levels, since a monster is at least Level 1, and therefore an encounter with it is at least Encounter Level 1.
How do you make an Encounter of level 1, featuring multiple enemies? The classic goblin swarm, for example. I know that I can house rule to my hearts content, obviously, but I would rather see something that is actually playtested, preferably also from official sources.

What is a HDRI?
HDRI is the abbreviation of "High Dynamic Range Image", and in this case it is a 360ºx180º panorama. Its function is to provide you a real environment for your 3D work and make it the most realistic as possible.
Why should I get it?
This type of HDRI can be used for any 3D work as you wish. However the environment, and backplates have been thought for 3D car projects.
Isn't it too low quality?
The resolution 5000×2500 pixels allows you to work with a good quality of reflections, and also with a manageable (.hdr) format on your 3D viewport. So, if you don't have great computer power, you still can do realistic renders in an acceptable time and excellent quality. Even more, for those users who need Higher Resolutions and are able to handle heavy (.hdr) images, this item also includes a 10000×5000 pixels panorama.
What does the pack include?It contains:
- A 360ºx 180º Spherical panorama (5000×2500 pixels) in (.jpg), and (.hdr) format.
- A 360ºx 180º Spherical panorama (10000×5000 pixels) in (.jpg), and (.hdr) format.
- 11 backplates (4928×3264 pixels) in (.jpg) format.
The "More images" section includes a preview of all the backplates included in this pack. Take a look!
All the images (Backplates and Hdri) don't have water marks.
The models on the images are shown just to check the reflections and lighting. They are not included in the pack.

It is similarly annoying to them when it is a long free text box, making the customer question whether they are answering correctly and sufficiently. Providing response boxes that reflect the anticipated answer length and format reassures people that they are filling them in correctly.
Well designed forms result from an appreciation of the role they play in an organisations interaction with people. Organisations have a responsibility to minimise the burden forms impose when gathering information from people.

The government of President Goodluck Jonathan used legal tools as well as brutal means to clamp down on media coverage deemed critical of the government. Sensitive and dangerous topics for the press included coverage of high-level public corruption, the government's war against Boko Haram insurgents, and the political activities of the Jonathan administration. Regulatory agencies headed by Jonathan-appointed officials cracked down on radio commentary critical of the government, and banned a radio station in connection with its criticism of an official polio immunization campaign. Film regulators also banned an acclaimed documentary detailing a culture of impunity for public corruption. The administration criminally charged the independent newspaper Leadership over the publication of a memo allegedly written by the president on plans to increase gas prices and sabotage a merger of opposition political parties. Amid continuing military action against insurgents in the north, security forces also harassed a newspaper in connection with its investigative report on alleged extrajudicial detentions of terrorism suspects. The government amended the anti-terrorism law to include broadly defined offenses that criminalize some legitimate newsgathering activities, according to news reports. Nigeria appeared for the first time on CPJ's Impunity Index, which highlights countries where journalists are murdered regularly and killers go free.
Public institutions overseeing the nationwide dissemination, regulation, and licensing of broadcast, print, and film content were all headed by officials appointed by President Jonathan and served at his pleasure, according to CPJ research.

On April 4, the state-run National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) sanctioned Atar Communications, proprietor of Liberty FM, a station based in the northern city of Kaduna, citing an unspecified breach of Nigeria's broadcasting code, according to news reports.
The sanction was in retaliation for a March 18 talk program broadcast on the station that discussed public criticism of the "Good Governance Tour," a team led by Information Minister Labaran Maku that monitors progress and development around the country. Nigerian citizens had condemned the tour as a waste of time and money.
The radio station was fined US$14,000 for its offense.

June amendments to Nigeria's 2011 Terrorism Prevention Act formally designated the hardline Islamist militant groups Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad, and Jama'atu Ansarul Muslimina Fi Biladis Sudan as terrorist groups, according to news reports.
The law--violations of which carry a 20-year jail term--outlined broad, poorly defined offenses that could be interpreted to conflate some activities of legitimate newsgathering with support of terrorism, according to CPJ research.
Section 4 (c):
|"Attend[ing] a meeting, which in his knowledge is to support a proscribed organization or to further the objectives of a proscribed organization"
Section 5 (2) (a):
|"Incitement to commit a terrorist act through the Internet, or any electronic means or through the use of printed materials or through the dissemination of terrorist information."
Section 5 (2) (c):
|"Receipt or provision of information or moral assistance, including invitation to adhere to a terrorist or terrorist group."
A steady rise in unsolved murders in recent years landed Nigeria on CPJ's Impunity Index for the first time. Nigeria trailed Somalia with the second worst impunity rating in Africa. The index calculates unsolved journalist murders as a percentage of each country's population.

Census Traffic Analysis Zones, 1995 - Alaska
- Description:
- This datalayer displays the Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZ) for the state of Alaska. A traffic analysis zone (TAZ) is a statistical entity delineated by state or local transportation officials for tabulating traffic related census data, especially journey-to-work and place-of-work statistics. A TAZ usually consists of one or more census blocks, block groups, or census tracts. For the 1990 census, TAZs were defined as part of the Census Transportation Planning Package (CTPP). The U.S. Census Bureau first provided data for TAZs in conjunction with the 1980 census, when it identified them as ''traffic zones.'' Each TAZ is identified by a six-character alphanumeric code that is unique within county or statistically equivalent entity. For the 1990 census, TAZ codes were unique within CTPP area, which generally conformed to a metropolitan area.

What one word sums up your feelings about your father coming home from war?
Chelsea Riley picked up a marker pen to answer the question, but she couldn't stop at a single word. A small essay poured out, describing how she missed Capt. Ian Riley during the holidays even as she looked forward to his return by Christmas.
"He's been going off and on since I was 7," the 13-year-old explained.
One of Chelsea's younger brothers had a simpler message about Dad's return. He bounded up to the wall where children of deployed troops shared their thoughts and scrawled out: "Excited."
The Riley family's anticipation echoes around Joint Base Lewis-McChord this winter. Banners hang along roads welcoming troops who left for tough missions in southern Afghanistan a year ago. Planes land almost daily, bringing back more and more Stryker soldiers -- about 8,000 in all.
It's a joyful period for many Army families as the base south of Tacoma has its last big homecoming wave from a decade of war. But it's also a challenging time as they reintegrate soldiers who spent the past nine to 12 months in a combat zone.
In this season, a child's daydreams about getting the full attention of mom or dad can crash into the reality that it takes some time to calm down from the heightened senses of war, not to mention the exhaustion of the long trip home.
"They see their parent, they have all these created realities, and that's not what happens," said Norma Melo, Lewis-McChord's youth education support services director.
"What happens is Dad's lucky if he can get a shower and eat before he falls asleep," she said.
Melo has a special touch with Army kids. She knows when to hug and how to draw out an honest remark. Her experience is personal; she lost her husband, Julian, a Lewis-McChord Stryker sergeant, in Iraq in 2004.
Her job gives her influence over school liaison officers and counselors supporting the families of Lewis-McChord's 46,000 active-duty and Reserve service members.
Two-thirds of the local service members who responded to a South Sound Military and Communities Partnership survey last year indicated they have children. The partnership estimates that 1 in 5 children between Tacoma and Lacey have a parent working at the base as a civilian or service member.
From Melo's standpoint, those children often go overlooked, especially compared with services provided to soldiers and their spouses.
"The one thing we don't concentrate on is our kids," she said.
She helped prepare dozens of Army children for their parents' homecomings last month at an exercise called Camp Arrowhead. It centered on children such as Chelsea Riley who have a parent in the 3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division -- Lewis-McChord's "Arrowhead Brigade."
Melo kicked off the camp by inviting the kids to write words on a banner describing how they felt about their parents coming home. She put up a hypothetical example on the paper to set the tone for the day.
"Here's mine -- I feel scary," she told them. "When dad left, he told me to be good, but I haven't been so good."
Kids were free to express feelings other than happiness about mom or dad coming home from Afghanistan. The messages they offered included "worried," "weird," and "relief."
Throughout the day, kids broke into small groups in which they played games and talked with counselors about what to expect at home.
Many had been through a deployment before. They looked forward to day trips, or doing fewer chores around the house once their family reunites.
"I'm going to be happy when he comes home because I won't have to babysit so much," said Kali Budd, who was anticipating the return of her stepdad, Cpl. Dan Stamper.
Jayson Roy, 16, expected Dad getting on his case about homework. The oldest of four children, he took on more responsibilities over the past year.
"I can't wait to have him get on my butt about school," said Roy, whose stepdad, Maj. Dave Polizzotti, was finishing up his third yearlong deployment.
"I'm losing concentration because of the war," Roy said.
Last month, Chelsea Riley was looking forward to holidays with her dad and maybe a couple of trips to the bowling alley. Capt. Riley's tour in Afghanistan was his fourth deployment since 2005.
Chelsea knew what to expect from his first days back in the house.
"When he comes home, he sleeps and eats my mom's cooking," she said.
Capt. Riley made it home by late November. The family relaxed for a few days and took their time getting back to their pre-deployment routines.
The officer and his wife, Bobbi-Jo Riley, started making their homecoming plan weeks before he returned. They discussed when he'd start to assert himself in the house, and how to balance the checkbook now that he's not receiving combat pay.
They put much more work into their planning this time than they had in the past.
"You learn from each one, and you just get better at it," said Capt. Riley, 34.
He led a company of soldiers in the 3rd Brigade's 1st Battalion, 37th Field Artillery Regiment for part of his deployment. His troops often take direction better than his four kids.
"You ask your soldiers to do something, and they do it. You ask your kids to do it, and they don't," he said.
Bobbi-Jo Riley also thinks their planning paid off. She attended a "spouse academy" for 3rd Brigade families in October at which she shared tips with other wives about how to adjust to having their husbands home.
"The same things happen every time, but sometimes you don't think of it," she said.
"They come home and they take their boots off at the door, and that's the honeymoon phase.
"Three months from now, it's 'Can he put his boots away?'"
She thinks Camp Arrowhead helped her children adjust their expectations and prepare for their dad's return, too.
"The happiness is there, but without the time to reflect, you just focus on making posters," she said, referring to the welcome-home banners families often make for soldiers. "You forget you actually have to work at it."

As with most first-time parents, I think Christmases after my mom was born were all about presents for her (and then her and her siblings), as far as my grandparents were concerned.
Here's mom at Christmas in 1950, grabbing one of the first presents she saw:
Here's Mom modeling the robe she received for Chrismas (it's hanging off the stair rail in the previous photo):
Later, it was all about us grandkids. Here's a couple photos from the 1980s for a change:

D&G Time
I'm loving this D&G Time commercial that's running at the moment. I was passed out on the couch the other night and looked up to see two boys making out on my screen and couldn't believe I was watching American television. Of course it's harmless but for the rest of the nation I guess it could be a little risque'. Well done D&G!

A poison is any substance that causes harm to a living being. This can result from contact with the body e.g. a caustic, or following absorption into the body. Absorption can occur following ingestion, by passage through the skin or mucous membranes, by inhalation or by injection. A foetus can be poisoned by a substance crossing the placenta. Almost any substance can act as a poison if a sufficiently large dose is absorbed.

U.S. Botanic Garden Awarded Accreditation from the American Association of Museums
U.S. Botanic Garden Awarded Accreditation from the American Association of Museums
WASHINGTON – The United States Botanic Garden (USBG) has achieved accreditation from the American Association of Museums (AAM), the highest national recognition for a museum.
Of the nation's nearly 17,500 museums about 775 are currently accredited. Notably, of several hundred public gardens in North America, the U.S. Botanic Garden is one of only 19 that have been awarded accreditation.
AAM accreditation brings national recognition to a museum for its commitment to excellence, accountability, high professional standards, and continued institutional improvement. Developed and sustained by museum professionals for 35 years, AAM's museum accreditation program is the field's primary vehicle for quality assurance, self-regulation, and public accountability. It strengthens the museum profession by promoting practices that enable leaders to make informed decisions, allocate resources wisely, and remain financially and ethically accountable in order to provide the best possible service to the public.
Accreditation is a very rigorous process that examines all aspects of a museum's operations. To earn accreditation a museum first must conduct a year of self-study, and then undergo a site visit by a team of peer reviewers. AAM's Accreditation Commission, an independent and autonomous body of museum professionals, consider the self-study and visiting committee report to determine whether a museum should receive accreditation. While the time to complete the process varies by museum, it generally takes as much as three years. The United States Botanic Garden began the process in 2006.
"It is an honor to have the Botanic Garden receive this distinction – one of only 19 public gardens in the entire country to be recognized with accreditation. I'm very proud of our USBG staff for their commitment to achieving this goal, and to providing the visiting public with a wonderful, educational experience each time they visit the Botanic Garden," said Stephen T. Ayers, AIA, Acting Architect of the Capitol.
"Our staff is passionate about the importance of plants. We have worked hard to promote appreciation for the beauty and diversity of plants, as well as the importance of plant conservation and preservation of the environment. We view our role as advocating for plants. Being recognized as a 'museum for plants' is a tremendous reward," said Holly Shimizu, executive director.
The originating plant collection of the USBG was formally placed under the direction and control of the Joint Committee on the Library in 1843. In 1856, in recognition of their increasing stature, the collections and their associated operations and facilities were officially named the United States Botanic Garden. The Joint Committee on the Library has exercised its supervision through the Architect of the Capitol since 1934.
The Garden serves more than 700,000 visitors each year. Its public facilities are located on the U.S. Capitol complex and include the Conservatory, the National Garden, and Bartholdi Park. Its living collections comprise nearly 8,000 taxa including more than 67,000 plants. Significant holdings include orchids, economic plants, native plants of Hawaii, and plants of the mid-Atlantic region.

I offer women an opportunity to experience holistic care during the childbearing year, and practice within the philosophy held by the Midwives Model of Care. "The Midwives Model of Care includes: monitoring the physical, psychological, and social well-being of the mother throughout the childbearing cycle; providing the mother with individualized education, counseling, and prenatal care, continuous hands on assistance during labor and delivery, and postpartum support; minimizing technological interventions." "At the core of the Midwives Model of Care is a deep respect for the normalcy of birth and for the uniqueness of each childbearing woman and her family. This approach to maternity care promotes health and helps prevent complications. Care providers who practice this model of care have excellent outcomes while providing safe, individualized care." "The application of this model of care has been proven to reduce the incidence of birth injury, trauma, and cesarean section." -Midwifery Task Force
All Family Tree services are designed and tailored on an individual basis, specific to each family's unique needs, and desired pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding experience.
I welcome the opportunity to serve you and your growing family! Please contact me for a free no obligation consultation, regarding any of my services.

text: Friday, September 21, 2012 New in the Literature: Predictors of WBA After TKA (Gait Posture. 2012 September 11. [Epub ahead of print]) Greater amounts of weight-bearing asymmetry (WBA) 1 month after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are predicted by modifiable factors, including habitual movement pattern and asymmetry in quadriceps and hamstrings strength, say authors of an article published online in Gait & Posture. Fifty-nine people were tested preoperatively and 1 month following unilateral TKA for WBA using average vertical ground reaction force under each foot during the Five Times Sit-to-Stand Test. Candidate variables tested in the regression analysis represented physical impairments (strength, muscle activation, pain, and motion), demographics, anthropometrics, and movement compensations. WBA, measured as the ratio of surgical/nonsurgical limb vertical ground reaction force, was 0.69 (0.18) (mean (SD) 1 month after TKA. Regression analysis identified preoperative WBA, quadriceps strength ratio, and hamstrings strength ratio as factors predictive of WBA 1 month after TKA (R(2)=0.30). APTA member Cory L. Christiansen, PT, PhD, is lead author of the article. APTA members Michael J. Bade, PT, and Jennifer E. Stevens-Lapsley, PT, PhD, are coauthors. Comments Is there any evidence that assessing open chain quadricep strength is a good predictor of whether a hospitalized patient can walk? Posted by Kim Burton on 6/3/2015 11:39 AM

I started making this as a side dish to go with chappati and rajma, but they came out so well that they ended up becoming the star of the dinner. Once it was done, we made some fresh guacamole and had it as wraps. I started with just sweet potatoes, but mixed in some plain potatoes to highlight the savory taste. I finished the last of the sweet potatoes and am now looking forward to spring vegetables.
The farmer's market had rainbow chard this weekend, and a lot of vegetable plants. I bought some tomato and pepper plants, but have not been able to plant them yet. I am hoping to get to it this weekend. What are you planting?
1 1/2 sweet potatoes
2-3 medium yukon gold potatoes
1/4 tspoon red chilli powder
1/4 tspoon turmeric powder
1/4 tspoon fresh black pepper powder
1/4 tspoon cumin seeds powder
3/4 - 1 tspoon salt (adjust according to taste)
1 1/2 tbspoon olive oil
Preheat the oven to 400deg F. Chop them in cubes. You can even slice them longer.
Mix all the spices with the potatoes and sweet potatoes. Put it on a tray and cook it for 12 min. Then stir it around and cook it for another 8-9 minutes till it's cooked.
You can serve it as a side dish, or even make wraps, sandwiches.
Here is a pic of our dinner plate.

Decimal to Binary conversions
Most people when they start learning about computers hear of binary and hex but never learn about them this tutorial will change that it will teach you a little bit about them and it will teach you how to convert them.
*Before I say any thing about binary just remember that you read it backwards from right to left*
First off all I hope every one know the decimal system 0-9 well if you dont this tutorial is not for you. Ok binary is a base 2 number system witch just means that it only has two numbers in it 0 and 1 un like hex witch has 16 but we will get into that much later. Binary is 8 bits or 8 1s and 0s the lowest number with hex you can represent is 0 and the highest number is 255 with the 8 bits.
When you see binary it will look like this 00000001 this number is 1. How you would read it is by looking at the 1s only you dont look at the 0s the right most spot in the 8 digits is represented as 1 and then the next is 2 then 4 then 8 and so on so it will look like this
and now say you wanted to make the number 129 in binary what you would do is just make the 0s to 1s in the correct places by making the first one witch will represent 1 and the 8 1 witch is 128 and it makes 129Code:128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Now before I said that the biggest number you can represent with binary 8 bits was 255 right well numbers dont end at 255 so if you wanted to make a bigger number what you have to do is add more bits to it by adding 0s and 1s to the end of the number ( remember you read it right to left so the end of the number is the left side not the right) so what you would do is just add what you need now if you see the pattern in binary 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 but if you needed a bigger number you just double 128 to 256 then 512, 1024, 2048. So now the new line up would beCode:128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 this = 129.
then all you do is the same thing it is just you have bigger numbers. All you are doing is adding bits to the back of the list why you can do this is because back in the 80s the processors wear 8 bit so binary was limited to 8 bits but now most are 32 bit processors but the 8 bit standard stayed with binary but because we have 32 bit we can add numbers to the back of it this will come in to play in hexadecimal when you have more then 2 hex symbols.Code:2048 1024 512 256 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
If you have any other questions or if you have trouble reading this PM me and I will help you out because I dont know how good I was at explaining it.

Dairy producers will have two program options under the 2014 farm bill: The margin protection program and livestock gross margin-dairy (LGM-dairy) insurance.
Midwest economists have pulled together a good description of LGM-dairy and then have compared it to the new margin protection program (which replaces the dairy price support and Milk Income Loss Contract program). You can read it here.
In a nutshell, the margin protection program is a one-size-fits-all program that uses national milk and feed prices. LGM-dairy, on the other hand, allows producers to tailor their insurance program to their specific ration costs.
The margin protection program has its insurance premiums set for the duration of the farm bill; LGM-dairy premiums vary with market conditions and are actuarially fare. "The benefit of the actuarially fair nature of LGM-Dairy is that when projected margins are favorable there is an opportunity to lock in high margin levels," says John Newton, a University of Illinois dairy economist.
However, while USDA will make margin protection indemnity payments for the life of the farm bill and without limit, LGM-dairy premium subsidies are limited. When the subsidy limit is reached, LGM-dairy will be suspended until and if new funds are made available. "Therefore, when making a decision between MPP and LGM-Dairy you need to carefully access the likelihood of continuous LGM-Dairy availability compared to the guaranteed protection of MPP over the life of the Farm Bill," Newton says.
Along with Newton, Cameron Thraen, Ohio State, Brian Gould, University of Wisconsin, and Marin Bozic, University of Minnesota, provided analysis for the report.
