Stimulating Effects Of White Vein Kratom Strain!
Are you aware of WhiteVein Kratom? Read on for more information about this WhiteVein Kratom. It is from the leaves of the Mitragyna speciosa kratom tree. It has a distinguishing grid of white veins on the back of the leaf. Maeng Da interprets exactly to 'pimp grade' in Thailand, where it originated. White Vein Kratom is one of the 3 extensively consumed strains of Kratom with the other 2 being red and green vein Kratom. The names of these strains are found on the color of the veins of the leaves. The variance in color signifies the modification in the structure of these leaves. This segregates what one strain can attain from the rest. The White Kratom Strains have been recognized to have revitalizing effects.
They lessen weariness, apathy and give vitality that carry on during the day. Additional typical use of the white strain of Kratom is its motivating effects. It is a common preference for people that search for a substitute tonic to caffeine. This is essential because of the certainty that this strain improves concentration, stimulates alertness and fights lethargy and weakness without generates agitation or weariness. It is therefore considered a potent strain for those who undergo from misery. Another widespread benefit of the White Kratom Strain is that it improves the mental state. And promotes innovative philosophy and thoughts. Consuming it earlier in the day then enhances the performance and output of a user for the whole day.
The white strain of Kratom has likewise been perceived to uplift the self-reliance of a person. It does this by allowing a user to feel contented about themselves. And thus make them a lot more assured. This strain can also be excellently used as an antidepressant. Several users declare that white strains can alleviate sadness and help them become more cordial. It is though remarkable that the stimulating effects of the White Kratom Strain last long. As well as can cause sleeplessness if consumed late in the day. Over the previous years, Kratom has been increasing approval among users worldwide. Some kratom reviews declared that leaves of the tropical evergreen tree have manifold benefits. Such as comprising lowering blood pressure, improving metabolism and alleviating discomfort among others. There are numerous strains of Kratom and their effects differ from one strain to the next. The reputation of White Kratom Strain has been expanding progressively as a result of the many advantages.
On the other hand, White strains are very famous with people coming off opiates or struggling withdrawals. Hence now you have a summary of what the white vein colors do. The first part of the name is from the vein color. The second portion is from the area it was developed. So a Vietnam strain a Maeng Da strain and a Bali strain can have elusive variances although they are all white, red or green strains. As cultivated in Thailand, the White Vein Thai strain represents the greater energy properties of both other Thai strains along with other white vein strains. It comprises a strong mixture of alkaloids, particularly those that intensifies energy and ecstasy. The optimum part? Unlike coffee and other tonics, this kratom gives an uncontaminated lift of energy that will work impeccably with everyone who doesn't respond well to drugs. Good information, isn't it? Don't just read, try them.

The Los Angeles County Regional Planning Commission voted to approve hearing rebuttals and continued public testimony on the Woodfin Suites Hotel/Vacation Ownership in Marina del Rey Wednesday, August 12th after a number of speakers opposed to the project raised concerns.
Regional Planning Commission members said there were at least 16 to 18 issues brought up by public speakers at the hearing in Marina del Rey that required a report/rebuttal from county staff. The developer/applicant is also required to clarify issues raised regarding a joint draft environmental impact report (DEIR) that requires recirculation for both the Woodfin and the Neptune Marina projects to address previously unrecognized impacts.
The continued meeting is scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday, October 14th at the Regional Planning Commission Hearing Room 150, Hall of Records, 320 W. Temple St., Los Angeles.
The Woodfin/Neptune Marina documentation is available online at http://planning.lacounty.gov/.
The staff/developer rebuttal report for the October 14th meeting will be available online two Thursdays prior to the meeting on the same county Web site.
The potential impacts related to the proposed City of Los Angeles Dual Force Main alignment through Marina del Rey and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works' Marina del Rey sewer upgrades associated with the proposed projects were required to be addressed in the DEIR.
The August 12th meeting was focused almost entirely on the Woodfin Hotel component of the project because of the large number of public speakers opposing the project and the time constraint of using the county building.
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors appoints the five members of the Regional Planning Commission to four-year terms. Members include Esther L. Valadez (Gloria Molina, First District); chair Leslie G. Bellamy (Mark Ridley-Thomas, Second District); Harold V. Helsley ( Zev Yaroslavsky, Third District); vice-chair Wayne Rew (Don Knabe, Fourth District); and Pat Modugno (Mike Antonovich, Fifth District).
This project, proposed for the northeast corner of Via Marina and Tahiti Way (Parcel 9U), and zoned in the Playa del Rey Zoned District, requires a tentative tract map to create 136 timeshare units on 2.06 gross acres.
Other requirements include: a coastal development permit to authorize construction of a 19-story, 288-room hotel and timeshare resort, and the construction of a new parking structure to service the hotel/timeshare resort;
A conditional use permit to authorize the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption, the installation of signs and the construction and maintenance of an emergency rooftop heliport;
A parking permit to authorize reduced on-site parking via a shared parking arrangement and a valet parking program that will utilize tandem parking spaces;
A variance to authorize a reduction of the required ten-foot setback from the pedestrian promenade; and
A coastal development permit to authorize construction and maintenance of a public wetland and upland park on the southwest portion of Parcel 9U.
A senior biologist consulting for the developer presented a report on the wetland area on the proposed Woodfin parcel, saying that the area had been degraded after a hotel was planned in the 1980s and partial work had started and was then stopped.
Restoration of the wetland to provide a fully functional tidal salt marsh habitat for birds, flora and fauna would be feasible, said the biologist.
During public comment, opposition to the project spanned various categories.
General concerns and quality of life: important to keep open land for recreation, not private development; piece-mealing of projects rather than developing the Marina as one project; blocks scenic views of mountains; keeps lower income families from enjoying the recreational and beach amenities by having insufficient parking or expensive parking; general high prices; completely blocks the wind pattern for boaters in the Marina; does not provide for affordable housing, impacts traffic and creates more congestion; parking lots not underutilized but underserved; ruins the beauty of the Marina with a project not suited for that area; blocks sunshine for condo owners living across the street from the proposed hotel; and lowers property values of those condos.
David Barish, co-founder of the group We ARE Marina del Rey, alleged that the county is piece-mealing projects in violation of state law, the California Coastal Act and CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act), and that since the county is the co-applicant on every development it is required to follow CEQA.
He said that the county should prepare for the whole Marina to be redeveloped to determine the entire cumulative impact.
Environmental impact: cumulative impacts of noise from construction, air quality, traffic from this and other projects; hotel and timeshare will overuse water; decline in landfill capacity; wastewater, solid waste disposal capacity only effective until 2017; suggestion for a geological survey for the size of the hotel compared to the small acreage on which it would stand; safety concerns about the heliport on the hotel rooftop; new maps from State of California regarding the high risk of liquefaction in the area; global warming/climate change.
On the subject of wastewater and solid waste disposal, resident Nancy Vernon Marino claimed she had found a math error in the recirculated DEIR of over seven million, 624,000 gallons of wastewater not accounted for, and questioned if this type of error was found for one project, how many of the other projects might have similar errors.
She said that overflow from the Hyperion Treatment Plant in El Segundo would go into the ocean and back to the main channel, winding up in people's backyards.
David DeLange, executive director of the Coalition to Save the Marina, said that the description of the wetland area on the hotel property is referred to as degraded and that it would be relocated.
"You can't relocate a wetland, it's not like moving a car or a body to another location," said DeLange.
"It means you've destroyed what's already there and you resurrect it or recreate it in another spot, but that's illegal because to build the hotel, you have to destroy the wetland," he said.
Robert van de Hoek, co-director of the Ballona Institute, said there are not just coastal wetlands, there are freshwater and alkali coastal wetlands, currently delineated by the U.S Army Corps of Engineers.
He said that much of Marina del Rey was freshwater wetland and alkali, not all tideland, and that the term "degraded" was used by developers and their scientists to dismiss the area.
"The whole ecosystem needs to be thought of in terms of the rest of the Ballona Wetlands and all taken collectively, and the California Coastal Commission recognizes the importance of the freshwater marsh," said van de Hoek.
TIMESHARE ASPECT OF WOODFIN — Jack Ainsworth, a deputy director of the California Coastal Commission, stated in an e-mail that timeshares or hotel condominiums would require a Local Coastal Program (LCP) amendment, and that if the county doesn't process such an amendment, it would be a basis to appeal a coastal development permit for such a development.
DeLange also addressed the timeshare aspect, and referred to that statement from the Coastal Commission, and said that movement of units between parcels is also not allowed in the LCP, as is the conversion of parking lots for residential purposes.
Rachel Torres, a research analyst for Unite Here! Local 11, said the union represents over 20,000 hotel service workers, and that the local planners must provide an in-depth analysis for demand and supply of such projects.
Torres alleged that the Woodfin ownership is "deeply controversial and litigious, with a history of developing illegal timeshares on coastal land."
"In 2008, the California Coastal Commission expressed strong concerns about a proposal by Woodfin Hotel Suites for development in the Port of San Diego to include timeshares as part of a 140-room, full-service hotel on public tidelands," Torres continued. "In the face of likely rejection of the plan amendment, the port withdrew the application.
"The Woodfin company is currently in violation of city and municipal law in Emeryville, California and is being sued by employees in a California court for refusal to comply with the city living wage ordinance, something that we hold dear in Los Angeles," she alleged.
"The hotel is in violation of its conditional operating permit until it pays over $300,000, including back wages, fees and fines owed to the city under this ordinance," Torres alleged. "For this and other reasons, we respectfully request that the Regional Planning Commission deny the developers' application for approval as it's currently designed until these issues are resolved."
Tim Rosales, spokesperson for the Woodfin Suites Hotels, told The Argonaut that "unfortunately misinformation has been put out by Unite Here! Local 11 regarding our Emeryville property and employees.
"Woodfin enjoys a great relationship with both the city of Emeryville, California, the Emeryville Chamber of Commerce, our employees and the community as a whole. "Last year, the Alameda Superior Court found in favor of Woodfin regarding a lawsuit filed by the city of Emeryville. Currently, the case is under appeal."
Resident Carla Andrus told the Regional Planning Commission that it had been "saddled" with the problem that has consisted of a long road for many in the community who have continued to attend all of the meetings on development.
She said the Marina del Rey Design Control Board no longer has the power to scale back large projects that didn't provide enough parking, and that the issue was now on the plate of the commission.
Andrus asked that the commission members listen to the community and told them that the issue was now up to them.

It finally happened, I got married on a Caturday!
I go by Tina Lee-Almazar or Tina Lee-Almie now, hahaha! Our wedding was pretty simple, the ceremony was a straightforward affair, just the way we like it. There were several mishaps that were completely out of our control (I got sick days leading up to the wedding and after, the paper flowers were not realistic enough, our bridal table went missing, etc.) but at that point, we're just glad the whole thing was over.
I'm quite happy with the little details, such as the arrangement of the souvenirs on the sponsors and guest tables, respectively:
Our guest tokens were a hit, as predicted:
And of course, the cake buffet, which was my personal favorite, was another hit!
Thanks to Ann Lim and Purple Oven for the wonderful cakes, everyone loved the sweets 😀
Other snaps I took from Leycel, my cousin in law's Facebook page:
Here's us with my family
Here's us with my in-laws
Here's my events stylish Ann (who happens to be my sister's high school friend) my sister and I. As usual, I can't help but make faces on cam, hahahaa!
I did my own makeup btw and the hotel lighting was so terrible it's a miracle I pulled it off. I got so many compliments (guests didn't know I did my own face)!
For some reason, I did not go through the same process that I went through during my practice. After priming my face, I pretty much slapped the products on but I'm glad the makeup was great and it held up nicely despite the humidity and the long hours spent entertaining guests.
Here's us internalizing on camera, ahahahah!
I also did my own hair using White Rain maximum hold hairspray (it's nice!) and finished off with a bejeweled headband that looked a lot like a tiara. The wrap-around dress I wore as my wedding dress was a gift from my sister.
My sister is a fashion designer and this dress was also designed by her, which made it even more special. She could've designed a piece of rag and I'd still wear it with pride lol. SO happy I got gifted with a unique dress to wear on my wedding day! 😀
I love how it rained ever so lightly a few minutes before the ceremony started. I'm not superstitious but I was hoping for rain for luck! The best part of the wedding was the hubs' (that's his new codename now, a step up from "the boyf" title) musical performance, hahaha! It was awesome.
That's it, pancit! We're headed to our honeymoon next week starting with a pitstop at Putipot island (a getaway gift from my cousins) and then it's off to Bicol for six solid days of no work, woot!

Cyber Monday Is Here: Why Mobile Is A Must-Have For Your Business
In 2016, Cyber Monday sales reached an all-time high, with consumers spending $3.45 billion USD in a single day. Black Friday traffic was up 220% over a regular day. And, while Black Friday/Cyber Monday originated in the United States, it's become an international event–according to a 2016 Borderfree study, Black Friday/Cyber Monday orders were up globally, with countries like India seeing as much as 173% growth over the previous year. One of the reasons for the shopping sensation? Mobile.
More customers are shopping online and on mobile devices than ever before, especially during big holiday sales. While shoppers now spend 7% less time in each mobile session, smartphones' share of online shopping purchases have gone up 64% over the last year, and 30% of all online shopping purchases now happen on mobile phones.
According to Javelin Strategy & Research, mobile proximity payments are expected to total more than $90 billion in 2020, and retail payments via mobile apps/browsers are projected to reach $318.8 billion during the same period. "If you're following the money, as they say, mobile commerce is the place to look right now, and it's why we're seeing the major wallet providers shift their focus to enabling online and in-app payments as much as growing proximity payments at the point of sale," says Emmett Higdon, director of the mobile practice at Javelin.
Consumers are using their smartphones in all parts of the shopping process, from research and "window shopping" to purchasing and sharing news of the sale. The numbers are astounding. More than half (52%) of shoppers plan to use a smartphone for holiday shopping this year before they visit a store, and 82% of smartphone users will consult their phones while in a store. People are searching 37% more from inside department stores than they were last year. A majority of holiday shoppers (54%) plan to shop on their smartphones in spare moments throughout the day, such as when walking, commuting to work, eating food, or drinking coffee. Shopping-related searches on mobile devices have grown more than 120% year over year, and mobile is quickly catching up to desktops. New mobile payments platforms means more people have the ability to use their phones in stores–a Google Consumer Survey found that 40% of people say they are likely to use their smartphones to pay in stores this holiday season.
Looking for an innovative way to offer mobile gifting, loyalty, and payment opportunities to your customers? Our award-winning, all-new truTap V2.0 mobile app will put the power of TruCash in the palm of their hands.

Austria's mint is running 24 hours a day as global mints from the U.S. to Australia report climbing demand for gold coins even while Goldman Sachs Group Inc. says this year's price rebound will end.
Austria's Muenze Oesterreich AG mint hired extra employees and added a third eight-hour shift to the day in a bid to keep up with demand. Purchases of bullion coins at Australia's Perth Mint rose 20 percent this year through Jan. 20 from a year earlier. Sales by the U.S. Mint are set for the best month since April, when the metal plunged into a bear market.
Global mints are manufacturing as fast as they can after a 28 percent drop in gold prices last year, the biggest slump since 1981, attracted buyers of physical metal. The demand gains helped bullion rally for five straight weeks, the longest streak since September 2012. That won't be enough to stem the metal's slump according to Morgan Stanley, while Goldman Sachs Group predicts bullion will "grind lower" over 2014.

At the bottom of every page in your admin, you will find the SEO Toolkit:
Here, you can add a custom title tag and description. This content is generated automatically for you when you create the page, but you can override that metadata here with your own content.
- Title Tag: this will automatically be populated with the "Page Headline" that you add to the top of your page. You will see this title tag appear in two places: (1) this is the name of the page that appears on your browser tab and (2) on search engine results, this will be the name of the page.
See screenshot below.
- Description Tag: like the title tag, this content is automatically generated. We will display the first few sentences on this page as your description tag. This content is only visible on search engine results.
You may want to enter a custom description tag here to provide a brief summary of the content on the page, being sure to include any keywords or phrases that someone may search for, especially anything specific to your location.
Here is the page that the above search result points to: http://www.jmitchellassociates.com/about/services
In the SEO Toolkit, you will also see the option to prevent search engines from crawling/indexing the page. You may want to do this if you're building a page that you only want certain clients to access: perhaps you're putting together a page full of helpful resources that you'd like to send to your clients. You would simply create the page, share the URL with your clients once it's approved by compliance, and disable search engine indexing on the page. When disabled, this page will not appear in search engine results — so only people with the link to that page will be able to access it. Voila!

Trump on Russian election interference: 'What am I going to do?'
It was exactly one year ago today that Donald Trump suggested he was prepared to accept Russian President Vladimir Putin's denials about attacking American elections.
Trump said he'd spoken directly with Putin about the scandal, telling Reuters, "I said, 'Did you do it?' And he said, 'No, I did not. Absolutely not.' I then asked him a second time in a totally different way. He said, 'Absolutely not.'"
This, evidently, helped convince the American president that he should trust his Russian counterpart's word over that of U.S. intelligence agencies.
That was July 12, 2017. On July 12, 2018, as this week's NATO summit wrapped up, Trump hosted a press conference and addressed the issue anew. The Washington Post reported:
President Trump pledged Thursday that will "of course" raise the issue of Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election at his summit next week with the country's leader, Vladimir Putin, but insisted that there was little he could do if – as expected – Putin denies that Russia interfered.
"Look, he may. What am I going to do? He may deny it," Trump said. "All I can do is say, 'Did you?' And, 'Don't do it again.' But he may deny it. You'll be the first to know."
The American president doesn't appear to appreciate how pathetic a line this is. From Trump's perspective, confronted with overwhelming evidence that Putin's government launched an unprecedented attack on the United States' democracy, the president can ask the Russian leader for an explanation. If Putin denies responsibility, Trump can ask again. As the Republican put it this morning, it's "all" he can do.
He'd make quite a police interrogator, wouldn't he? "Did you commit the crime? No, really, did you commit the crime? No? Well, I guess that's that. I gave it my best shot."
Trump is acting as if he's effectively powerless, but he's not. If the American president were serious about a tough response to a Russian attack, he could stop taking Putin's word for it. He could impose sanctions without foot-dragging. He could stop dismissing the investigation into Russia's intelligence operation as a "witch hunt." He could stop taking all kinds of steps that appear designed to make Moscow happy, including undermining international cohesion on NATO.
"What am I going to do?" How about anything other than what Trump's been doing?

Healing Unmet Needs
God created us with physical, spiritual, and emotional needs. Our emotional needs are just as important for our growth and maturity as our physical needs. Our spiritual needs are met by God, our emotional needs are met through relationships, and our physical needs are met with food. The need for love can be compared with the need for water, both are essential for life. An emotional connection or a bond with another person is how your emotional needs are met. If this bond has not been developed, you will suffer silently, longing for a meaningful relationship. If love is not flowing between two people in a relationship; each one feels like a broken withering limb hanging from a tree cut from the life source. Plants need to stay connected to the water source and we must stay connected in relationships where love is flowing, where emotional needs are being met.
His supply for the foundational level of all of our emotional needs is provided from birth through our family. Your family is like the soil you are planted into. It is either rich with nutrients of unconditional love, affection, affirmation, and encouragement, or, it is rocky, stony soil with conditional love, and criticism. Our emotional needs for love, affection, and affirmation should be filled through our parents when we are children. If our emotional needs are filled during the early years you will be emotionally healthy in adulthood. When you are emotionally healthy you can establish healthy relationships with others.

WEIBrations e.V. is a lesbian Choir from Karlsruhe.
The name WEIBrations pronounced "Vibrations" is a play on words with "Weib" being an old word for woman. In 1994 they were originally made up of only a handful of lesbians, who practiced in Ellen's front room, who was their choirmaster at that time. One year later, they made their stage entrance at the opening of the Karlsruhe "Frauentreff" (a lesbian bar) still somewhat shy and in normal outfit, they sang their entire repertoire – three songs! Since then the sassy singers from Baden in South Germany have made a name for themselves in the lesbian choir scene and are well-known in and beyond their city… and have also learned a few more songs.
They feel at home both on the stage at the Women's and Lesbian Choir Meeting in Berlin, the South German Gay and Lesbian Choir Festival in Munich or at the Gay Games in Amsterdam, and on local stages in the region between the Rhine and Black Forest. The WEIBrations are now taking part in "Various Voices" for the second time and are looking forward to all the amazing choirs and a great festival atmosphere.
The ca. 20 singers in their shrill outfits put the whole spectrum of lesbian life to stage and have no scruples in "torturing" well-known pop songs, oldies or German folk music. Their bold lyrics tell of desire and love, nosey neighbors, unsuccessful flirts and are dedicated to such problems as "How do I get a baby when I'm a lesbian". Their versatile and sophisticated repertoire also includes classics, international music and experimental rap.
Since 2002 the choir has been under the conductorship of Eva Hilfinger, who completed her musical training in 1988 with the "Badischer Sängerbund", a singer's alliance. She took a step away from the Catholic Church choir in her home village and ventured musical steps into the world of conducting different types of choirs with various musical genres.
The WEIBrations also have lots of fun together outside of the concert halls: at barbeques in summer, hiking from the Black Forest mountains into the pubs in Autumn and in Spring at the Choir weekend away to Alsace in France, where the program for the year ahead is arranged and a considerable amount of Asti Spumanti is destroyed.
In 2005 they celebrated their major jubilee concert, for which their first CD "Höhen und Tiefen" ("Highs and Lows") was released. After a folk song very nearly qualified them for an appearance on TV's "Grand-Prix der Chöre" (similar to "Last Choir standing") in 2007, the WEIBrations are now concentrating on their local live audience and are preparing for a major concert in their home town of Karlsruhe in November 2009.

Hey, hi, and hello out there once again. When I woke up this morning, I didn't recognize my own face as I looked at it in the mirror! It came as it always does, the day before tomorrow, but what is, never is what it was! It is what it is and there is nothing I can do about it! Sit still Blackwell, and breathe as I cough and spit!
My own social construction has begun, rebuilding as Life has been blown back into me, my web is being spun! I have injected subjective meaning to my existence as well as my experiences! Out of reach, not out of touch! Don't ever fucking tell me that it is all too much!
The things I take aren't being given! What's the alternative? To give up, to give in???
The obliqueness masked by the social context in which a person lives! THRUST OF INDEPENDENCE! The mistakes I have made are the only "things" peoples see and not who I really am and what, every day, I aspire to be! They are what has given me my reputation from which there seem to be no escape-unrealistic expectations, I guess…
When the people I once looked up to turn out to be assholes, it takes from me, it leaves holes in my Soul! Ebbs and flows! Manic-depressive! I'm on a low—->I got the slows! My mind is flooded but my body says NO!
To those of you out there in the grip, I can only hope! I am just Jay again! I guess that is all I have ever been! Stay up and stay human too though! I love you and you matter to me!

I married Ms. Rachel Marie Giessen on February 24, 2007 in Shreveport, Louisiana.
About 70 family members and a few close friends joined us for the weekend. A storm blew through that afternoon just before the ceremony, then the skies cleared for the rest of the day. No particular meaning was attributed to either.
One of my brothers conducted the service, the other stood with me as my best man.
Here are some pictures from that day.
Here are some other things that happened on February 24.

Gold Coast players ditching training to join the hunt for a missing girl on Monday was not a hard decision to make, defender Steven May says.
The Suns have been praised for joining the hundreds of locals who took to the streets of the Gold Coast in the quest to find five-year-old Jocelyn Lewis.
May said teammate David Swallow had broken the news at a team meeting and suggested they should help out.
"It was a no-brainer really," May said.
"A girl had gone missing in our vicinity, we pride ourselves on being a community-based club and that's the culture we're trying to breed here."
Coaching staff agreed to let the players ditch training to pound the streets.
While the Suns' attempts didn't bear fruit, May said the news Jocelyn had been found safe and well by two women shortly after they returned to their training complex was a relief to all.
"We were still pretty devastated because no-one had found her and then we got the news and it obviously lightened up the gym and the boys finished the day off well."

April 17, 2015— Colombian national record holder Jorge Valdes Murillo of South Florida Aquatic Club was the top male Florida finisher on Day Three of the Arena Pro Swim Series Friday at Skyline Aquatic Center in Mesa, Ariz.
Murillo placed fourth in the 200-meter breaststroke in 2:17.73.
SOFLO teammate Alia Atkinson, three-time Jamaican Olympian, won the "B" final of the 200-meter breaststroke in 2:32.29.
Colombian Carolina Colorado of South Florida Aquatic Club was sixth in the 100-meter backstroke in 1:02.46.
In a time trial, Colorado went 29.41 in the 50-meter backstroke. She was also 24th in the 50-meter freestyle in 26.62.
Bolles alum Arianna Vanderpool-Wallace won the 50-meter freestyle and was the top Florida finisher. The two-time Bahamian Olympian and national record holder, training at SwimMAC, won the splash and dash in 24.84, slower than her morning time of 24.72.

Just minutes after swimming the 200-meter butterfly, Kelsi Worrell won the consolation final of the 50-meter freestyle in 25.27, which would have placed her fourth in the "A" final.
A day after winning the 100-meter butterfly, Michael Phelps failed to qualify for the 400-meter freestyle final placing 17th overall. The 18-time Olympic champion was fourth in his heat in 4:02.67 to make the "C" final which his coach scratched him.
It was the first time Phelps swam the 400 since 2009. Phelps also scratched from the 100 backstroke prelims on Friday.
"I just wanted to see how much I can do and how much I can hang," Phelps said. "Well, I guess I can chalk that up as an interesting race. Not one for the record books."
Ryan Lochte of Daytona Beach was fourth in the 400-meter freestyle consolation in 4:01.26. He went out fast and was under world record pace and led for the first 350 but faded in the final lap.
Marcelo Acosta of Louisville was fourth in the 400-meter freestyle in 3:55.44.
On Saturday, Phelps will swim the 200-meter individual medley and 100-meter freestyle.

A day after Pine Crest teammate Jessica Nava broke a club record in the 100-meter butterfly in 1:02.11, the top seeded time for the "C" final, Nava qualified for the "B" final in the 200-meter butterfly with the eight fastest time of 2:19.07. She went on to finish seventh in 2:19.33.
Pine Crest Swimming's Lindsey Swartz was fourth in the "B" final of the 200-meter breaststroke in 2:36.85.
Teammate Marta Ciesla was sixth in the "C" final and 22nd overall in the 50-meter freestyle in 26.48.
Vietnam national record holder Vien Nguyen of St. Augustine was fourth in the 400-meter freestyle in 4:15.08 and also won the "B" final in the 200-meter butterfly in 2:14.90, nearly two seconds faster than her morning time.
In other championships finals:
Women's 200-meter butterfly: Cammile Adams of SwimMAC won in 2:08.80, 6/100ths of a second ahead of Katie McLaughlin in 2:08.86. She reeled in McLaughlin in the final 50-meters. Hungarian Katinka Hosszu was third in 2:11.83. Elizabeth Beisel, the eighth seed in 2:15.43, was seventh in 2:15.22. "It felt really great," Adams said. "I have been training for this event and trying to fine tune my strokes."
Men's 200-meter butterfly: Belgium's Luis Croenen, making his U.S. debut, on the event in 1:59.61, more than two seconds faster than he went in prelims. He finished ahead of Tyler Clary in 2:00.23. "I am coming off training camp for two weeks," Croenen said. "This was an amazing race for me."
Men's 50-meter freestyle: Full-time swim coach Josh Schneider won the sprint event in 22.52 and said he isn't done with swimming just yet. Azura Florida Aquatics' Renzo Tjon A Joe was just .01 behind him. "This is the only race I truly like," Schneider said.
Women's 100-meter backstroke: Hungary's Katinka Hosszu won her second race of the meet in 1:00.72. Kirsty Coventry of Zimbabwe was second in 1:00.89. "This race was definitely better than last night," said Hosszu, who has been training in Fort Lauderdale.
Men's 100-meter backstroke: Arkady Vyatchanin of New York Athletic Club won a three-man race in 53.84. Matt Grevers was second in 54.23 and David Plummer was third in 54.45. It was the same order as last year's Mesa meet and all three had faster times. "I could see the others and I knew I would have to be pretty fast coming home," Vyatchanin said.
Women's 200-meter breaststroke: Hometown girl Breeja Larson dropped three seconds from prelims to win in 2:27.82. Katie Meili was second in a best time 2:28.53 and Micah Lawrence was third in 2:28.73. "I was trying to hold back a little bit on the first 100 and stick to my race strategy," Larson said. "It's always nice to win here. I heard family and friends cheering in the crowd."
Men's 200-meter breaststroke: Venezuelan national record holder Carlos Claverie completed his breaststroke sweep of the meet in 2:14.31. He won by more than two seconds ahead of Carl Mickelson in 2:16.56.

Shell element dragged
Datta1234 replied to Datta1234's topic in Altair RADIOSSHi George, I have modelled using spotwelds only where I choose element type as RBODY.
Shell element dragged
Datta1234 posted a topic in Altair RADIOSSHi all, I am performing an Impact analysis and I have few components which I have connected using 1D element as shown in the picture. However after the analysis these connections look very different . The elements have got dragged. Can someone tell me what is wrong?? Thanks, Datta
Datta1234 started following Increase in Error, Shell element dragged, Pressure and and 4 others
Datta1234 posted a topic in Altair OptiStructHi, If after I create a Pressure load using surfaces option I have gone to loads on geometry and mapped the loads. My question is after this do we have to delete the loads that we created on the surface? Thanks, Datta
Thank you George. So can we conclude that in Radioss RBE2 and RBODY have the same effect?
Thank you for the reply George, So when you say transfer of load is possible what do you mean? Does it work like similar to RBE2? Suppose I apply 100N load on the green component in the picture, will 100N be transferred to the blue? Thanks, Datta
Datta1234 posted a topic in Altair RADIOSSHi, I am getting these warnings, Can someone please tell me what may be wrong and how to correct it. 1) WARNING ID : 183 ** WARNING IN HIERARCHY (PART TO SUBSET ID) DESCRIPTION : -- PART ID : 1 -- PART TITLE : rubberpad REFERS TO UNEXISTING SUBSET ID=75 2) WARNING ID : 692 ** WARNING IN SURFACE DEFINITION DESCRIPTION : THE SURFACE ID=5508 IS EMPTY Thanks, Datta
Load transfer in RIGID Element
Datta1234 posted a topic in Altair RADIOSSHi all, If I connect two components by the RIGID panel using the RBODY element. I wanted to know how the load transfer takes place. Suppose I apply load to one component will the entire load be transferred to the other component? Thanks, Datta
Datta1234 replied to Datta1234's topic in Altair RADIOSSHi George, Thank you for answering. I wanted to know how the load transfer works in the case of Type 2 and Type 7 interface. I could not find in the manual. In both the interfaces does the load transfer takes place from the slave surface to the master surface or the other way ? Thanks, Datta
Datta1234 posted a topic in Altair RADIOSSHi, I am trying to simulate contact for performing frontal crash analysis of a chassis having a tank. I have a tank which is wrapped by two brackets and supported by rubber. This bracket is welded to a chassis. I need to create contact for the following- 1) Between tank and bracket. 2) Between rubber and bracket. 3) Between rubber and tank. It is attached to chassis as follows- I know that I need to create Interface. Please tell me for each case which Type interface should be used and which should be selected as master and slave? Thank you, Datta
Datta1234 posted a topic in Altair RADIOSSIf I want to connect two components can I use components to select in the rigid panel? Thanks, Datta
Ok will check that, Thank you George.
Datta1234 replied to Datta1234's topic in Altair HyperMeshThank you George and Rahul for the reply. I went through the Tutorial and the ebook, but I could not find an answer for the same. I want to know which one to use, because I am really stuck at this. Please help me!
Thank you George and gopal_rathore for the reply. In my Energy plot total energy is increasing, which should not happen. I am attaching the out files can you please check and tell me what is possibly wrong?? geometryfiletomeshinmm_hm_crash_10mm.criteria_crash_10mm.param_0000.out geometryfiletomeshinmm_hm_crash_10mm.criteria_crash_10mm.param_0001.out geometryfiletomeshinmm_hm_crash_10mm.criteria_crash_10mm.param_0000.rad

Dear friends and families of Yujin Gakuen,
I was excited to see so many of you today on this first day of the 2018-2019 school year. So many of our students have grown since last spring, and it was great to see returning parents. I want to give a special welcome to our kindergarten parents, especially those who are new to Yujin Gakuen. Thank you for choosing Yujin Gakuen and entrusting us with your children's education.
I hope you received positive reports from your child about today's activities. Our teachers spent much of their day reviewing and introducing our schoolwide and classroom expectations. You may be interested in knowing that all our elementary schools this year are reviewing expectations for behavior and all elementary teachers have received training on managing student behavior. This training is part of a district wide focus on a new behavior framework for 4J that emphasizes positive reinforcement, explicit teaching of positive behavior and creating a culture of respect, increased communication, and regulation of emotions. We had started this work last year with our Zones of Regulation, and we are moving forward this year with implementing "Second Step," a social emotional learning curriculum aimed at teaching students ways to form positive friendships and engage in problem-solving conflicts.
I also want to share a couple of things that was communicated to kindergarten and 5th grade families already, but I want to share with the rest of the community:
I am pleased to welcome back Bree Young as a teacher on a long-term assignment in our 5th grade. She is returning to YG, having covered for Kelly Sensei's parental leave last spring. Kelly Sensei will be taking another leave of absence but is planning to return after winter break. We are fortunate to have Bree return to us as she already has positive relationships with staff and students;
In our kindergarten, you may have noticed that we have our two teachers, Robin Sensei and Takako Sensei. We had hoped by this time to have added a third teacher, one who would teach Japanese and English; however, we were not able to find a licensed teacher who did not have to deal with immigration and licensing issues. As we approached the beginning of the school year, we also found that our enrollment was not as high as expected. In fact, the entire district is experiencing lower enrollment than projected last year. Our kindergarten has a total of 53 students, so we will maintain two classrooms of 26 and 27 students each.
If you have questions about our kindergarten enrollment or staffing, or if you have other questions, please feel free to contact me by phone or email.
Thank you for your support and for choosing Yujin Gakuen.

"What Makes It Model?" Checklist
By Nancy Wozniak
Steps to a Model ePortfolio:
1. Think about your work and experiences. Choose the best!
You want to assemble a collection of work that demonstrates and showcases your talents and abilities in all areas of your life. Your ePortfolio gives you dimension and allows you to showcase yourself to the world. An ePortfolio will help as you transition from your Stony Brook University academic career to applying for graduate school and/or searching for a job in your chosen professional field. Be sure to include your courses, jobs, community services, campus activities, and personal interests. Keep it professional and R-E-F-L-E-C-T.
2. Add your résumé. Omit any personal information such as phone numbers or addresses!
See Career Services for help with your résumé and career ePortfolio: Career Center, W0550 Frank Melville Jr. Memorial Library, Stony Brook, NY 11794-3363, (631) 632-6810 Fax: (631) 632-9146 http://www.career.sunysb.edu
3. You MUST have an About Me or Bio section. Composing your About Me is a quick and easy process. What to say? Take 5 minutes to list five facts about your talents, strengths, interests, and goals. Post them with a sentence that best describes your professional self.
For example:
On your Welcome Page, create your professional motto. If you could pass on one sentence that best describes you to your great, great grandchildren to read in the future, what would it be? Include a professional picture and/or logo (icon). Design your own logo or create a wordle (www.wordle.net) that represents your strengths and abilities.
4. You MUST have a Resources section to cite your references, images, quotes, resources, video, music, etc. Anything that is not your original work must be cited. For help with citations, visit the library and ask one of our friendly librarians for assistance.
Download and review the AACU Information Literacy Rubric: InformationLiteracy.pdf
5. Categorize, Post and Display your artifacts (showcase assignments, service projects, activities, and experiences). All posted artifacts must include a title, description and reflection piece. See prompts below.
6. If you are required to use an ePortfolio for your course:
- You MUST include your name in the title.
- Set your viewing settings to Viewable within Stony Brook or Public. By choosing either of these settings, your ePortfolio will be viewable in the campus directory. If your ePortfolio is set to Private, professors and potential employers will not be able to see your work. You can choose to change the viewing settings of your personal ePortfolio at any time.
- You MUST Allow Tags and tag your courses with the course number and section.
- Include your professor's name on the introductory page of your course section. This allows faculty members to easily find your ePortfolio.
- Display your courses in one ePortfolio. Create separate tabs for your courses or a Course tab (section) in your academic ePortfolio.
- Remember, you are allowed as many ePortfolios as you'd like, but you must have an Academic ePortfolio.
ePortfolio Posts must include:
1. Description of project
2. Process of completing project
3. Project
4. Reflection
5. Resources
6. Supporting multimedia (images and video)
All posts required and non-required should include the above.
7. CHECK YOUR GRAMMAR! Poor grammar and sentence structure detract from your creative and professional image. Think about your impression of the author of a paper riddled with spelling errors and broken sentence structure. Keep your writing conversational and grammatically correct. Use a spell checker to avoid making typos and have a buddy proofread your writing. Proofread for others in our ePortfolio community as well. You'll improve your writing and creative styles when you read others' writing.
8. Evidence of your computer and design skills. Images, audio and professional videos make your ePortfolio interesting and invite others to browse and read your work. Adding digital media demonstrates your electronic and creative thinking skills to future employers. Keep in mind that this is not Facebook, but rather a professional representation of you. Keep the media content professional. Ask yourself, "Can I show this image to a future employer or my mom?"
When inserting media, watch your dimensions. Your images should not overpower your pages. Keep them 300x300 and under. Your banner must stay within 799 pixels wide (length) or it's a "what you see is what you get".
9. WARNING! Nancy's Pet Peeves!
Do NOT leave the gears graphic up as your ePortfolio directory icon (pictured left). Create an icon that represents your strengths and abilities. Your directory icon is how Stony Brook University and the world view you. Select an icon that represents your professional self. Go to Portfolio Tools>Settings>Create an ePortfolio page appears>scroll to Directory Icon>click Browse button>the Select Window opens>highlight (click on) your image>click on Open button>click Upload>click Submit. Keep it at 100 pixels x 100 pixels or upload an image, as is, to see how it will appear. Please visit one of our ePortfolio consultants in The Faculty Center if you require assistance.
Do you look like this?
If not, upload a picture or a representative icon of yourself by clicking on your name next to "Welcome," at the top right of the screen and to the left of the gray HELP box.
Find Your Name>click your name>Edit User Profile page appears>scroll to User Image and click Image Browse>select image and click open>click Upload>Submit. Images should be 100 pixels x 100 pixels, otherwise it's "what you see is what you get".
Note: While you are in the Profile page, add the email address you use for professional purposes. You will be able to continue on with your ePortfolio after you graduate by logging in with your email address as an Alumnus. Keep your email current. Creating a Gmail account for your ePortfolio and professional contact information is HIGHLY suggested. When creating an account, avoid Hotmail and Yahoo. Employers recognize Gmail as professional.
10. Reflect! This is the final and most important step. When you take the time to post a reflection on your posted showcase artifact, you demonstrate your reasoning and critical thinking skills. You show deeper levels of your communication, creative, and leadership abilities. Reflection shows a higher order of thinking on your part. Reflection completes the metacognitive process (making sense, self-analysis, and reflection...thinking about how you think) and helps you to make connections between learning and growth experiences in all areas of your life. Let's face it, posted reflections are impressive and allow others to view your multifaceted talents and abilities. After all, your ePortfolio is the best of you and you're amazing!
Inquiry and Reflection Prompts for Posted Artifacts in Your ePortfolio
When writing a reflection on an assignment or learning experience, keep it simple. It doesn't need to be an essay. Think about these reflection prompts when reviewing your assignment, course, project, program, or experience:
- What skills or abilities did you learn from this experience and how are you able to apply them to other courses and areas of involvement in your life (academic, career, service, campus, personal interests)?
- What about this assignment or program was most useful to you? Can you see a relationship to what you've learned to your other courses or activities in your academic and/or professional career?
- How would you describe this course, project or program to your friends? How would you describe it to a future employer?
- What areas and abilities in your life were strengthened or improved by this course, assignment, project or activity?
- List the ways you have grown as a result of this assignment, course, project, activity or program.
- What problems did you encounter and how did you solve them?
- What risks did you take and what did you discover about yourself?
- What personal strengths and abilities did you discover and demonstrate by doing this assignment/activity or taking this course?
- If you had it to do all over again, would you? Why? What would you change?
- How did this experience prepare you for your professional career?
12. Add a Contact section with the email address you want viewers to use to comment on your eportfolio.
13. PROJECT! To receive full recognition for your model ePortfolio, you must have your ePortfolio and the key categories, such as, Welcome, About Me, Showcase Artifacts (course assignments, projects, activities, papers, programs) set to Public View. Your ePortfolio should also contain reflections and a CV or résumé.
12. FINAL CHECK! So you really want a model ePortfolio that provides evidence of your professional strengths, abilities and skills? Download the three rubrics below and rate your ePortfolio design, content and reflection according to the listed categories. The Lifelong Learning and Integrated Learning rubrics are professionally designed by college professors assembled by the AACU (American Association of Colleges and Universities). See if your ePortfolio measures up to the best practices and standards of learning competencies. These are the skills you will need to demonstrate for graduate school and when starting your professional career. You MUST demonstrate that you have an appreciation for learning and that learning is a lifelong endeavor. The Top Ten Skills Employers Look for in a Job Candidate self-assessment rubric will help you evaluate your ePortfolio for a job search and make sure you have evidence of the skills and abilities employers expect of their employees.
If you require assistance, make an appointment with one of our Student ePortfolio Consultants to go over your ePortfolio and the rubrics with you. Email firstname.lastname@example.com with the subject line - ePortfolio Rubric Review and we'll contact you to make an appointment.

REMINDER: Do NOT reveal too much personal information about yourself. Show your talents, strengths, and abilities without posting personal identifiers and information (addresses, telephone numbers, and personal pictures). Create a professional Gmail email account for your ePortfolio. (Avoid Hotmail and Yahoo.)

The man forsaken by the world, the man a slave to money and the man known as the legendary God of War in the highly popular MMORPG Continent of Magic. With the coming of age, he decides to say goodbye, but the feeble attempt to earn a little something for his time and effort ripples into an effect none could ever have imagined.
Through a series of coincidences, his legendary avatar is sold for 3.1 billion won, bringing great joy to him, only to plunge him into despair at losing almost all of it to vicious loan sharks. With revelation of money through gaming, he rises from the abyss with new found resolve and steps forward into the new age of games led by the first ever Virtual Reality MMORPG, Royal Road.
This is the legend of Lee Hyun on his path to becoming Emperor with only his family loving heart, his boundless desire for money, his unexpected mind, his diligently forged body and the talent of hard work backing him.

What you should do is respond to every question with a question. Certain rules apply. For example, you may not start with a statement before your question ("I did not. Did it..."). Questions must be genuine questions, not just orders with a question mark or the likes (Ask him?). You may not immediately change the topic with your question. It must be a gradual change.

As published in European Data Protection Law Review, Vol 3 (2017), pp. 13-15.
My experience in working with Big Data over the last 40 plus years involves data produced by communications or transactions between people, not machines talking to other machines or themselves, or machines taking measurements.
In the realm of transactions between people the problem is content volume. If you attack Big Data by looking at content first, then you quickly become overwhelmed by the content. Instead, by using the metadata associated with content to help define how the content is related and clustered, this gives a view into the content without having to look at it. Also, the metadata associations, often referred to as 'social networks or graphs', organise content into related clusters of communities. This makes selecting content for further study a much more focused effort. These social networks or graphs are created by attributes that are associatedwith individuals or organisations like: phone numbers, IPV4/IPV6 numbers,MAC numbers,
account numbers, passport numbers etc. These relationships in the graphs/social networks show the scope of interactions that people have in the world and help to define groups of people participating in an activity either business, social, family or other.
To get a reliable social network/graphs constructed, it's important to make sure the data used is corrected and validated. This can be achieved by first selecting attributes that can be relied on to make decisions automatically about the correctness of the data in storage. Of all the steps in analysis of Big Data this is probably the most important. There are many forms of metadata and selecting the right one to use to make decisions is critical. For example, in one Big Data case I worked, the engineers and computer programmers gave me over 200 different types of metadata. But, only 13 of these metadata elements were useful to make analytic decisions. Once you have the right
metadata elements to construct the social networks/graphs, then these elements can also be used to associate corrupted equivalent elements of information from which aliases can be defined. Plus, by keeping a frequency count of these elements, this data can be validated and corrected. When the social networks/graphs have been validated and corrected, then you can address the questions you want to get out of Big Data. It may be that only a small subset of the metadata would be useful in making decisions about the data and its content for discovery of either new individuals in the
communities or even perhaps new activities of these communities of individuals.
So, the steps to successfully analyse Big Data sets are:
1. Make sure to select metadata that is reliable to make decisions about the social networks/graphs and data content associated.
2. Use frequency counts to validate relationships within the social networks/graphs.
3. Use validated metadata relationships to correlate unresolved information.
4. Correct corrupted information based on multiple matches of reliable metadata with previously validated relationships.
5. If a known target of interest (seed) is available, use its metadata to develop a community of interest, ie the social network of that specific target.
6. If no seed available, use accepted rules to identify suspicious activity. For example, if an entity frequently visits web sites that advocate things such as: paedophilia, violence, or how to make a bomb, etc. Then focus on the community that that entity has in the social network/graph.
7.Otherwise, use things like geographic distribution of the social network/graphmembers to isolate communities that are suspicious because they are distributed over countries that are involved, for example, in drug smuggling.
8. Once you have developed a target/community of interest, then pull the content associated with that target/community to try and discover what activity they are about.
9. At this point, latent semantic indexing can be used against the content of the target community. With a smaller community generating content, this approach would be more effective as it would not be going against the vast amount of data available whichwould produce confused output as a consequence of randomprobabilitymatches.
10. When discoveries are made, make sure the data is feed back into the process to keep the knowledge of the process up to date.
11. Always regularly review the processes to make sure they are still functioning properly.
12. Maintain an audit trail on all processes to show that the system is properly functioning.
13.Make sure any new discoveries that have not been previously included in data processing are added to the system. Always check new discoveries to insure they are functioning properly.
While massive data can be intimidating, the reality is that all possible combinations are not the case. For example, if one considers the total number of phones in the world to be say 3.5 billion, then every possible connection taken in order between them would produce 3.5 billion factorial variations. But, the reality is an infinitesimal of that number – something on the order of a few hundred billion relationship combinations. This makes analysis of this scale of information a manageable problem. Similarly, other massive data sets can be analysed using these same steps.

BBC Radio 4's Start the Week this week included Professor Steve Jones, the geneticist. He had something very interesting to say. (You can listen here, or download the podcast from itunes)
He was bemoaning the tendency of the media to run headlines like "Scientists discover the gene for……" and then fill in the blank with whatever physical or behavioural characteristic known to Man. He said very, very clearly that this was pretty much always hype. Even where there was a definite gene, say, for example, for bowel cancer in familial bowel cancer, it was only of relevance to members of families who had the familial pattern of bowel cancer, and meant nothing to everyone else who had bowel cancer. He pointed out that scientists have been unable to "find the gene" which determines height, despite the fact that adult height is strongly related to parental height.
Life, it turns out, is just not so simple. We cannot say, "there's a gene for that….." We can say "genetic factors influence……" but that's really not the same thing at all.
John Cleese put the same point across – in my opinion more effectively, and had me laughing out loud – though I do think the way Steve Jones communicates is also strong, clear and enjoyable. Listen to the programme, and take two minutes to watch this video…..

The following factors must be taken into consideration when calculating the consumption of your air conditioner:
Here are some tools to help you calculate the consumption of your air conditioner:
Office of Energy Efficiency, Natural Resources Canada
You would like to cool your home but are hesitating between these two systems. Start by evaluating your heating needs!
A central air conditioner will only cool your home while a heat pump will air condition your home in summer and be used effectively to meet some of your heating needs. Thus, if you plan to replace or convert your current heating system, it would be profitable to consider buying a heat pump.
Before you reach a decision, take the time to evaluate and compare the advantages, savings and costs of these two options.
We would like to remind you that a high efficiency appliance that is ENERGY STAR® certified and features the output capacity that is suitable for you will help you save energy.
Before you buy an air conditioner, take the time to evaluate your needs and check… if you really need air conditioning!
Air conditioning leads to significant electricity consumption on hot summer days. Do not hesitate to consider other methods to keep your home cool before deciding to air condition your home.
Would your comfort requirements be satisfied by installing air conditioning in one or two rooms? An air conditioning unit could be what you need. Do you want your entire home to be air conditioned? Then a central air conditioner or heat pump would meet your requirements.
Whether you choose a central, window- or wall-mounted conditioner or a heat pump, it is best to select ENERGY STAR certified energy efficient models which offer the best energy efficiency rating. These units or systems will help you consume less electricity, save money and preserve the environment.
Take the time to gather all the information you need to learn about air conditioning before you make your choice. Here are a few helpful links:
