The pancreas produces three hormones that are important to glycemic control:
- insulin, which lowers blood glucose;
- amylin, which slows digestion and slows the rate of glucose entering the bloodstream, and temporarily suppresses release of glucagon;
- and glucagon, which raises the blood glucose.
Upon digestion of carbohydrates, glucose levels in the blood will begin to rise. As the blood and glucose flow into the pancreas, insulin and amylin are cosecreted by the pancreatic beta cells directly into the bloodstream in response to elevated blood glucose levels. Insulin causes blood glucose to be removed from the bloodstream and stored in the liver and muscle cells. Notice as the blood sugar goes higher, additional insulin will bring the blood sugar back down in a classic negative feedback loop. As insulin is released from the beta cells, amylin is also released into the bloodstream. Amylin slows gastric emptying, and also inhibits the release of glucagon from the pancreatic alpha cells. The effect of amylin is to spread out the blood glucose peak after eating, reducing the quantity of insulin needed. As the blood sugar level comes back toward normal, the beta cells will stop spurting insulin and amylin. As the glucose level approaches a low mark, the pancreatic alpha cells will release glucagon directly into the bloodstream. Glucagon causes the liver to release stored glucose back into the bloodstream. Notice that increased glucagon will increase blood glucose levels in a positive feedback loop. Together, the three endocrine hormones work as a system to control the blood glucose level between high and low boundaries.
When the beta cell produces insulin from proinsulin, a connecting peptide (or C-peptide) is also manufactured and released into the bloodstream. Absence of C-peptide in the blood indicates that insulin has not been released from the pancreas, and this fact confirms the diagnosis of diabetes type 1. C-peptide was believed to be only a by-product of natural insulin production, however recent studies suggest that C-peptide exerts beneficial therapeutic effects on diabetic nociceptive neuropathy.[1]
Ideally, to replicate the natural function of the pancreas as closely as possible, an artificial pancreas might someday replace all of the beneficial endocrine functions lost, including the delivery of insulin, amylin, glucagon, and C-peptide.

Many people are affected by low back pain. Based on a recent study, low back pain causes a third of work-related disability, and many working people develop persistent back pain.
The lower (lumbar) back region has more back pain. The vertebrae are separated by cushioning gel-filled discs, which support much of the body's weight. The spaces between each irregular shaped bone serves as shock absorbers through the spinal column. Bands of tissues (ligaments) hold each bone in place. The tendons attach the muscles to the spinal column.
Most back pain is mechanical in nature. However, wear-and-tear, as well as aging can affect the spine. Common causes of back pain include:
Certain risk factors can increase a person's chances for back pain. These include:
At Illinois Pain Institute, our goal is to fix the source of back pain, which may be treated using interventional pain procedures . Some common back pain treatment options are:

Space is fun, yay!
We love science here at TFFP, particularly the space part. (We also like taking an occasional break from the constant onslaught of terrible news we know we can't and shouldn't ignore.) So here's some cool space-related stuff I/we like!
Carl Sagan's Cosmos: Originally run in 1980, we declare that this is still the best space and earth science show ever made. The material is presented in a way that's easy for most laypeople to understand without talking down to the audience or having an episode titled "TOP 10 MOST EXXXTREME WAYS TO BLOW UP THE SUN," which is all basically nonexistent in more current shows. Some of the information has since been improved upon, of course, but the majority of it is still solid. The message was political (in a good way) when it needed to be. Sagan himself had gravitas and lightheartedness in equal measure, and an oft-remarked-upon, quirky way of speaking that make Cosmos all the better. I can't read his books or essays without hearing him recite every word (they take a long time to read). Watch this series. Watch it once a year. Share it with everyone you know, forever. Actually buy it if you can. I'm serious.
Powers of 10: This Eames clip may be a few decades old and have creepy music, but it's still awesome. The narrator takes us from human scale out to 100 million light years, then back in and all the way down through human cells to the sub-ångstrom level. I love how the most massive realms in the universe kind of mirror some of the smallest stuff we can detect–'orbiting' bits in extensive empty space.
Galaxy Zoo: Help identify and classify galaxies photographed by the Hubble, FOR SCIENCE. You can register and save your results and favorite images.
Photopic Sky Survey: Interactive panoramic 5,000 megapixel photo assembled from 37,440 images (apparently all done by an amateur astronomer, too, holy crap). Objects click through to their wiki articles.
Google Earth users can also access Google Sky (and Mars) or its Maps counterpart. I love some Google Earth.
Astronomy Picture of the Day: Like it says, a cool image with a description of what you're looking at, where it is, and where it was taken. RSS and archives available!
Dark-Sky Parks: There are only a few of these parks in the world, and most of them are ridiculously remote (duh). However, if you're into camping and visiting national parks/forests, some of the sites have other parks within a couple hours' drive. We're considering a trip to Natural Bridges in Utah, which, along with southwestern Colorado, is basically entirely composed of parkland.
Clear Sky Chart: Forecast conditions for stargazing in parts of the US, Canada, and Mexico. The charts themselves show weather and visibility. The regional lists also shows a Bortle Scale light pollution rating for each site so you can find the darkest spot in your area.
Stellarium: This 3-platform program (free, yay) lets you track the night sky as it would be seen from (almost?) any area of the earth. There are non-Western zodiac overlays available in the program. You can go to set times and dates and speed up/reverse time, as well. Paired with a clear sky chart, this is a good resource for planning the right time to go find some stars.
Universe Sandbox: If you ultimately just want to smash space stuff together, there's this simulator. Unfortunately the full version isn't free and crashes sometimes. Still, it's pretty fun.
And finally, because it's always awesome, this:

Saving birds without knowing the actual number of individuals of a bird species living in the world is impossible. Population figures should not be guesses! Those are the facts, based on countings carried out by thousands of volunteers and professionals worldwide. The result is an exact population figure and trend, which is one of the fundamental elements to assess the legal protection status of any species. Still, the importance of bird monitoring (regular counting) is underrated and often ignored by many.

Who is Sean Astin's biological father? He didn't find out until he was 26 years old, reports People.
The star of "The Goonies" and "The Lord of the Rings" series is the son of Patty Duke, and his birth in 1971 was tabloid fodder. His mom was linked to two men at the time, and no one knew who Sean's father was.
Duke, then 23, had had a highly publicized fling with Desi Arnaz, Jr., 17, a relationship of which Arnaz's mother Lucille Ball reportedly did not approve.
Around the same time, Duke married rock promoter Michael Tell, who was subletting her apartment. Duke and Tell were married for 13 days. The union was annulled.
Duke later claimed she had an affair with John Astin while the actor was still married, and that he was Sean's biological father. Astin and Duke married, and Astin raised Sean as his own.
When Sean was 14, his mother confessed that she believed Arnaz was actually his father, and Sean went on to develop a relationship with the actor.
The story doesn't end there, however. Sean later met a relative of Michael Tell, who suggested that they might be related. Sean asked Astin, Arnaz, and Tell to participate in a paternity test.
Thanks to the test, Sean learned that Tell was his biological father. Duke, however, did not believe the results. She told People in 2001, "I don't buy that test. I can support his truth as long as my truth, if not supported, is respected. I have told him I know what I know to be true. When God looks me in the eye and says, 'Anna Marie, you have been mistaken all these years,' then I will consider [Tell's paternity]."
Sean now maintains relationships with all three men, but considers Astin his dad.
"I have a good relationship with Mike. That's who I am," he said. "I don't fault anybody, I don't fault myself or with Desi, who is like my godfather, I have such a powerful love bond with this man — he's a gorgeous human being."

Microsoft Excel has the notion of collecting sheets of data (Worksheets) into a single book (Workbook). JMP has historically not had this notion of a collecting data tables.
A request that I have heard fairly frequently is that it would be nice to be able to save a collection of JMP data tables in a single Excel workbook. JMP 13 provides this new feature.
The first thing that you will need to do is to make sure that all of the tables that you wish to save are open within JMP. Once you have done that, you can select "View -> Generate Excel Workbook". This is the same for both JMP for Windows and JMP for Mac.
You will be presented with the dialog that allows you to customize the Workbook that you will create:
In this example, I have some JMP tables that were created by importing some movie data that we use in our Query Builder demonstration. By default, all of the visible data tables will be included in the list. If you wish to exclude a table from the Workbook, just uncheck the leftmost check box.
I'm not really thrilled with the prefixes on the names in this case. So, to change the name that will be used for the Excel worksheet, just click in the Worksheet Name edit field and change it:
I'm also not happy with the Workbook name in this case, so I select the edit box under "Workbook Name:" and replace the provided name. By default, JMP will use the name of the current, topmost data table. In this case that is g6_Rentals.
I also don't want to save to the Documents directory, so I can use the Choose button to bring up a directory selection dialog:Now I'm ready to save out my Workbook. At this point, I can just press the Save button, and the Excel Workbook will be generated with all of my customizations. One important point to note is that only Excel 2003+ format (.xlsx) is supported for export by this feature:
There is also a JSL interface for this feature. The example below generates the same table that we created above, except to the desktop of my Windows machine. Once again, the tables to save must already be open. In this example, I have created the lists of tables and sheet names prior to the "Generate" call, but this is not required.
tableList = {"g6_Movies", "g6_Rentals", "g6_Customers"};
sheetList = {"Movie Titles", "Rental Data", "Customer Information"};
Generate Excel Workbook("$DESKTOP\MovieRentalInformation.xlsx", tableList, sheetList);
There are no labels assigned to this post.
Good afternoon. I am having trouble getting this feature to work at all, and wondered if you had any insight.
I am running 64-bit JMP13.2.1 on a Windows 7 machine. Please see copy of log text below from my attempts to run the following script:
names default to here(1);
clear log();
close all(data tables, no save);
dt1 = new table("thing1",
new column("This","character","nominal")
dt2 = new table("thing2",
new column("That","character","nominal")
Generate Excel Workbook ("$Desktop\things1&2.xlsx", {"thing1","thing2"}, {"thing1","thing2"});
Name Unresolved: Generate Excel Workbook in access or evaluation of 'Generate Excel Workbook' , Generate Excel Workbook( "$Desktop\things1&2.xlsx", {"thing1", "thing2"}, {"thing1", "thing2"}) /*###*/In the following script, error marked by /*###*/Names Default To Here( 1 );Clear Log();Close All( data tables, no save );dt1 = New Table( "thing1", New Column( "This", "character", "nominal" ) );dt2 = New Table( "thing2", New Column( "That", "character", "nominal" ) );Generate Excel Workbook( "$Desktop\things1&2.xlsx", {"thing1", "thing2"}, {"thing1", "thing2"}) /*###*/;
Unfortunately I am discovering this problem after writing a much larger script whose final step is to export multiple tables into Excel. I am getting the same error message with the other script.
Any help is appreciated.
Solved my own problem: the command in my version of JMP is "Create Excel Workbook".
@briancorcoran , @Dahlia_Watkins 2 Questions . 1. The argument table list - it looks like the argument actually cannot accomplish anything . Please see the example below , JMP creates a workbook with 3 tabs and all the open tables ignoring that I only passed the function a list of 2 tables . Is there a way to bypass this functionality and limit the creation to only the tables that are passed as argument .
dt1 = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt2 = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Air Traffic.jmp" );
openDTs = list();
for(i = 1 , i <= N Table(), i++,
Insert Into(openDTs,Data Table(i)<< Get Name)
dt3 = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Animals.jmp" );
sheetList = {"BigSample", "Airsample"};
Create Excel Workbook("C:\MyWorkbook.xlsx",openDTs,sheetList);
Close All(Data Tables,"No Save");
2 . Is there any way to expand this beyond data tables ? Is there a way to write lists / matrices as well with this function or any other function in JMP 13 ? - If the answer is no , I would request that this be added as a feature in JMP 14 .
Hi Uday,
Please contact Tech Support about this, rather than commenting in a blog post. Make sure to let them know what version of JMP you are using, as well as the operating system that you are using. Mac and Windows can behave differently.
Thank you for the code snippet. It works properly on my installation of JMP 13.2.1 on Windows, which is why I think Tech Support is the way to go.

ICT in teacher education: Examining needs, expectations and attitudes.
An exploratory case study was designed to obtain pre-service teachers' expectations of and attitudes toward the learning and integrating of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) into their teaching and learning. Given the diverse demographic backgrounds and social conditions of the teacher candidates, such as age, gender, English language proficiency, and previous education, a wide range of responses to the online survey and the semi-structured focus group interview questions was expected. Implementation of the sequential mixed method research design resulted in emerging themes related to participants' social conditions that impact their perceptions and attitudes regarding the ICT and beliefs about the use of ICT in their future careers. Findings from this study are compared to earlier studies done in the same setting. Findings from this case study show unexpected consistency in teacher candidates' comments despite changed circumstances. This study could be employed as a useful reference for the design of an ICT curriculum for Teacher Education programs.

Story by Shanna Love / Contributing Writer
The Rutherford County Board of Education held a special meeting on the topic of school safety Monday night at Blackman High School.
Local officials, parents, police officers and educators gathered in the auditorium of the school to discuss future safety plans for the schools in the district.
During the meeting, several officials voiced their concerns about what they feel can be done to increase safety in the schools. Parents voiced their concerns on several issues such as bus safety, teachers' training for active shooters, bullying, the security camera system and medical treatment protocols. If school safelty doesn't increase, some schools across the States will be forced to introduce new security measures. Gates (similar to www.daosafeturnstile.com) and securiy guards at various entrances across the grounds.
County Commissioner Pettus Read said his son, who is a Middle Tennessee State University alumnus, came up with an idea to install warning danger signage in front of schools that would state the school is being protected by an armed School Resource Officer. Read then offered to pay for the first 50 signs.
"Money is not the importance of this," Read said. "It's the lives of our children."
Capt. Brad Harrison of the Rutherford County Sheriff's Office oversees the county's 56 school resource officers. The captain spoke about how important it is for parents to monitor their children's social media, emails, phones and rooms.
"We always like to hear opinions, especially from parents," Harrison said. "Somebody may come up with a brand new idea we have not thought of, and (it) could be very beneficial for us."
Rutherford County Sheriff Mike Fitzhugh spoke highly about the SRO's of Rutherford County, saying they were the first to have an SRO program in Tennessee. The SRO program in Rutherford County currently has at least one SRO in each school and two in the high schools.
The SRO program in Rutherford County is so prestigious that the U.S. Department of Defense asked the Rutherford County Sheriff's Office for training for its nationwide "school security team."
"The meeting was very beneficial to the public and us police officials because we were able to hear (community member's) concerns about school safety, and there are some suggestions we will take into consideration," Fitzhugh said.
Danielle Paredes, 17, a junior at Blackman High School, explained how her school could increase security measures.
"I believe they should do more locker checks because it's so easy for students to hide things in there they aren't supposed to have," Paredes said. "I also feel like students should step in and be more active in their social media. If you see someone online posting suspicious things that could cause harm to someone, alert your parents so that they can alert police."
Following the public meeting, members of the board and local law enforcement had a closed executive session to further discuss other safety plans and concerns.

About Her
Grew Up… in early 20th century Britain. By the time she's grown though, she's eking out her existence in the shady parts of Paris' club scene.
Living… in an impoverished state in Paris in the 1930s. Victoria can't even afford a room at a seedy hotel, and her clothes are so cheap they shrink in the rain. And she is so hungry that she tells a man: "I'll sleep with you for a meatball."
Profession… singer, or she would be if only she could land a gig. After a chance encounter with Toddy, an older gay nightclub singer, she'll have all the gigs she could ever want – if she's fine with performing under the guise of Count Victor Gravinski, a gay Polish female impersonator. With Toddy as her/his manager, Victor(ia) is going to be the toast of the upper class Paris scene. As long as no one finds out she's really a woman, that is.
Interests… singing in nightclubs, scamming restaurants for free meals, and avoiding the advances of her landlord. Unfortunately, Victoria is too poor to really have any interests outside of trying to get a job.
Relationship Status… as unattached to any man as she is to any career. She'll pretend to be Toddy's lover for the sake of her disguise, although neither of them have any real interest in each other. But a handsome club owner from Chicago, King Marchand, seems interested in her – at least, he seems interested in proving that Victor Grazinski isn't really a man.
Challenge…. getting enough money from singing that she doesn't have to resort to scamming restaurants for a free meal. Soon, she'll be performing in Paris' finest establishments, but her life only gets more complicated from there.
Personality… witty, tough, and free-spirited. Victoria is up for anything, even pulling a double-cross-dressing act. Her firey temper sometimes leads her to do impulsive things, like shatter a glass with her voice after being rejected from a nightclub gig. She tries her best not to let her impoverished state get her down, but even Victoria has her breaking point.

Top tips to look after your hearing
Sounds and noises, hustle and bustle. They make life interesting and vibrant. And sound can help us switch off too. But how do we keep our hearing safe? Read on for our tips from the experts.
Are your headphones too loud?
Our headphones let us disappear into a private world of music or a podcast. These days, it's normal to see people with earbuds in their ears or giant headphones on their heads.
However, it's important to keep the volume down to a safe level. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the sound intensity produced in headsets can reach the same level as a rock concert. In fact, 1.1 billion young people worldwide are at risk of hearing loss due to unsafe listening practices.
Expert tip: Check the coloured indicator on your audio device to see if the volume is approaching dangerous levels.
Can you feel when you're in danger of hearing loss?
It would be good if we could feel when our hearing is in danger. Unfortunately, there's no reliable way to know for sure if you are in danger of hearing loss. However, there are some hearing loss warning signs that you shouldn't ignore.
3 warning signs that your hearing is in danger
- Tinnitus. If your ears are ringing or whining after a loud event, it's a clear indication they have been exposed to high volume sound.
What is tinnitus?
- 'Muffled' hearing, known as temporary hearing loss. This can occur after a loud event such as a music concert, or going to the cinema, or even a fitness class.
- You need to raise your voice to make yourself understood.
Expert tip: If you notice any of these warning signs, avoid loud noises until your hearing has returned to normal.
What is a safe volume level?
85 decibels are considered the highest safe exposure level for continuous noise. Above this level, hearing damage can occur.
Take a look at the illustration. At the lower end, we have safe sounds like a normal conversation or a vacuum cleaner. The output of personal audio devices may range from 75 dB to as high as 136 dB.
Expert tip: Download a sound level app for your smartphone
Safe listening isn't just about volume, it's the duration
The maximum safe exposure time at 85 dB is eight hours.
When sound levels get up above 85 dB – the level of a busy road – the amount of time that you are exposed to it starts to matter.
Once the sound level gets up to 104 dB, as produced in some nightclubs and bars, and by some power tools such as chainsaws, it takes just 15 minutes before you are at risk of hearing damage.
Expert tip: When listening with earphones for long periods of time, be especially careful to ensure the volume level is safe.
4 ways to prevent hearing loss
Here's some good news! Noise-induced hearing loss is preventable. You simply need to stay aware of your noise exposure and minimise it whenever it approaches dangerous levels.
1.Use well-fitted earphones and noise cancelling headphones
Because a good fit stops sound leaking out, it allows you to hear your chosen audio clearly without having to turn the volume up towards dangerous levels
2. Wear earplugs (and fit them correctly)
If you know you are going to be in a noisy place or doing a noisy activity, wear earplugs. Earplugs can help to reduce the level of exposure considerably, by up to 45 decibels.
3.Take listening breaks
Whether you're at a loud venue or absorbing an audiobook, it's a good idea to give your ears a rest from time to time. This reduces your continuous exposure and gives your ears a chance to recover.
4.Get regular hearing check-ups
A hearing test lets you see how you are hearing now. This gives you peace of mind and gives you insights into any listening challenges you may not be aware of. Regular hearing tests allow you and your hearing care expert to track how your hearing develops over time and treat it appropriately.

We are often asked why LUO is made from bamboo, after all, there is enough wood in Finland. The LUO modules are slim and have a large span width. Furthermore, the luminaire body needs accurate machining for fasteners and for the interconnection mechanism.
We tested several materials from solid wood, MDF, Plywood to Bamboo. Bamboo was the only material that fulfilled all the demands. It has been tested in harsh environment and no twisting or cracking has occurred. The modules stay absolutely stable.
The image shows another astounding characteristic of the bamboo material, it is carbon negative which means it binds CO2 and it can be harvested after just 5 years of growing.

Central Minnesota guide offers time-tested tips for giant bluegills
Sep 29, 2019 06:14AM
By Editor
By Steve Hoffman from The Grand Forks Herald - September 27, 2019
According to central Minnesota guide Garett Svir, the fishing for trophy bluegill is as good as it gets right now.
"I had three clients in the boat this week that were catching plenty of nine- to 11-inch sunfish," Svir said. "We actually had to load up the boat and move to another lake to catch fish small enough to keep for dinner."
Svir has a strict policy on his boat that all bluegills longer than nine inches must be released. His clients are fine with that — most are hoping to catch a fish in the mythical 10- to 12-inch range for a photo or replica mount.
Svir has been a full-time multispecies guide for seven years, but big sunfish are his specialty. He guides year round, but said early fall is one of the most productive and overlooked time of year for trophy bluegills.
Right spot, right lake
Svir said that choosing the right lake is just as important as finding the right spot on the lake.
"I usually begin fishing smaller lakes during during spring and early summer," he said. "By August, though, I'm usually fishing the biggest lakes in the area. The fishing seems more stable during peak water temperatures. But I'm always back on the smaller lakes by mid-September."
To avoid putting too much pressure on a handful of lakes, Svir is always on the lookout for new fisheries that produce big sunfish.
"There are more than 1,000 lakes in Otter Tail County alone," he said. "We're fortunate in Minnesota to have access to the DNR LakeFinder site (https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/lakefind/index.html), which provides detailed data from fisheries surveys and a topographic map of each lake. Even if the data is a few years old, it still illustrates a lake's potential to grow big bluegills."
Svir said that right now is a good time to scout new lakes because fish are actively feeding, and most can be found in shallow water. But it's not the only time.
"Choose a key time of year — a time when the fish should be biting — and check out five or six spots," he said. "It usually doesn't take long to determine a lake's potential."
During recent weeks, Svir's focus has shifted from main lake structures like hard bottom humps and deep breaklines to inside weed edges in shallow water.
"I've noticed the same migration on a handful of lakes," he said. "They were holding on deep structure one day and had moved shallow the next. My clients were catching fish in six feet of water, but caught even bigger bluegills when we moved into four feet."
Svir added that he assumes the movement is food related, but admits he doesn't know what they're feeding on.
"At certain times of the year, it's easy to figure out what the fish are eating," he said. Like when they're spitting blood worms into the net. During fall, though, they seem to be more opportunistic."
Presentation pointers
When fishing water deeper than about six feet, Svir prefers to vertically jig directly beneath the boat as he moves along an inside weed edge. He instructs clients to maintain frequent contact with the bottom, and "pound" the jig to provide maximum vibration with minimal movement.
"I use a 1/32-ounce Northland Gill-Getter jig with a #10 hook," he said. "I add a large split shot about 18 inches above the jig to help keep the line vertical. I tip the jig with a whole redworm hooked through the nose so that it's as long as possible."
When fishing shallower water, Svir removes the split shot and adds a Thill Mini Stealth float, which features a wide base that gently wobbles in wind and waves to provide subtle movement to the jig.
"The biggest bluegills usually bite quickly when you're in the right spot," Svir said. "I move slowly (0.3 to 0.5 mph) along the inside weed edge until we catch a big fish. Then we spend three to five minutes fishing that area more thoroughly. As soon as we catch a small fish, though, we're on the move."
After years of experimenting with various rod and reel combinations, Svir settled on a 7-foot light-power spinning rod matched to a small spinning reel spooled with 4-pound Trilene XL monofilament line.
"My favorite rod is the Panhandler from JT Outdoor Products," he added. "It's the most sensitive rod I've ever used, but still has enough enough backbone to land trophy sunfish."
Productive fishing is the main reason Svir likes fishing during fall, but it's not the only reason.
"During the hottest part of summer I usually meet my clients before daybreak," he said. "But this time of year we don't start fishing until 8 a.m. Banker's hours aren't common for a fishing guide."
Selective harvest for bigger bluegills
Garett Svir is a member of the Minnesota Panfish Advisory Council, which works with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to improve the size of sunfish in lakes across the state. He said angler education is a major part of the council's mission.
"Every sunfish angler wants to catch bigger fish," he added. "But too many anglers want to keep big bluegills when they catch them. You're never going to find 11- or 12-inch sunfish in a lake where anglers keep all of the 10-inchers."
Bluegills potentially live for a long time in lakes across the upper Midwest, but they grow slowly. Research from the Minnesota DNR suggests that they grow about an inch per year. So the 10-inch plus specimens Svir and his clients seek are more than a decade old.
"The state is rapidly expanding the number of lakes with special regulations," Svir said. "The statewide limit remains at 20 sunfish per day, but on some lakes it's been reduced to 10 or even five. Our hope is that these lakes begin to produce bigger fish and the program gains more angler support."

You wouldn't think a 6-week-old kitten would have anything to do with a marketing plan but stay with me on this one.
When I went to my old friend Linda's place a few weeks ago, her cat gave birth to a litter of 5 kittens. I noticed a black and white one who looked the most curious and friendly out of the lot and liked him immediately but thought, no, this wasn't going to work.

Mid-Columbia National Wildlife Refuge Complex
Between March 9 and April 15, 2007, the McNary National Wildlife Refuge will be conducting prescribed fire activities within refuge boundaries and adjacent to Burbank, Washington, between the hours of 11:00 am and 3:00 pm. The project goals are to reduce hazardous fuels and invasive species and to open up shoreline areas for the benefit of waterfowl. Some ash fallout is expected, however crews will attempt to minimize this effect by only burning when wind and weather conditions are within prescribed parameters. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the principal Federal agency responsible for conserving, protecting and enhancing fish, wildlife and plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. The Service manages the 95-million acre National Wildlife Refuge System, which encompasses 542 national wildlife refuges, thousands of small wetlands and other special management areas. It also operates 70 national fish hatcheries, 64 fishery resources offices and 81 ecological services field stations. The agency enforces federal wildlife laws, administers the Endangered Species Act, manages migratory bird populations, restores nationally significant fisheries, conserves and restores wildlife habitat such as wetlands, and helps foreign governments with their conservation efforts. It also oversees the Federal Aid program, which distributes hundreds of millions of dollars in excise taxes on fishing and hunting equipment to state fish and wildlife agencies.

Behind the scenes
Jangles is a reference to the US's experimental use of monkeys in space exploration, particularly during the Cold War era.[1]
|The following is based on unverified behind the scenes information and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
The name Jangles is possibly a reference to a series of Atomic bomb tests codenamed "Operation Buster Jangles" in the Nevada desert. These test were used to determine the effects of nuclear weapons on various houses, electrical lines, poles and towers as seen in multiple declassified videos.

Ike agreed to be in my outfit of the day pic. I can't say he was thrilled about it. He's getting so big and heavy! It's hard to hold him for more than a minute or two.
My vest is on sale for $14.99 no code needed. I purchased the lilac color, but it's also available in eight other colors. My second favorite would be white. With a deal this good I'm tempted to order the white tonight.

Ghost ships are vessels found adrift at sea with its crew either dead or missing under mysterious circumstances. They appear in folklore and historical accounts. Probably the most famous fictional ghost ship is the Flying Dutchman, the legend of which dates to the 18th century. Phantom vessels like the Mary Celeste, the HMS Resolute, and the SS Orang Medan are also very real occurrences that have been sighted throughout history. So it's no surprise that ghost ships have been found in the waters near Japan, what's shocking is the frequency they have been recovered. The Japanese Coast Guard has reported 34 ghost ships in 2015, 65 vessels in 2014, and 80 in 2013. According to CNN, over the past two months more than a dozen ghost ships, carrying the remains of at least 22 people, have been found off the coast of Japan. All of the bodies were male […] Read More
Category: Haunted Ships
In the 1800s, many stories began circulating throughout Southern California and beyond about a spectral ship lying half-buried in the desert sands. Around that time, many migrants after the Civil War passed through the desert on their way to California. Many reported that they saw a multi mast Spanish galleon. Multiple expeditions left looking for the ship, but none found it. Some claimed it was Noah's Ark. Many more claimed that it was loaded with pearls, a fortune's worth, millions of dollars worth of exquisite pearls. In 1610, King Phillip III of Spain ordered Alvarez de Cordone to search the Western coast of Mexico and recover the pearls residing there. Cordone hired two other captains, Juan de Iturbe and Pedro de Rosales. He also hired sixty pearl divers and began having three ships build. By July 1612 they set sail to plunder the west coast of its precious oysters. […] Read More

So now this idea is mainly about making a grenade that dispenses (not sure if I spelled it right) deadly smoke, which (ofcourse) dissappeares by time. The better (higher level ) is the nade the more, the smoke stays. Now there will be 2 types of grenades: 1 smoke that WILL NOT do any harm if you have a gas mask on. And second one is the one that will do harm to the body itself. So if you have a gas mask on 1st grenade will not work on you but 2nd will (but if you don't have the gas mask on, 2nd will kill you a LOT more faster). Now the smoke will also work like cover. So if you have guys with gas masks on they can use this grenade like a simple smoke nade.
And ofcourse it will work on zombies..... but: not on elite scientists and gas mask elites (I hope that con really makes elites with masks) and some elites will even have high (very high) resistance to melee and firearms but gas nades will take em out easily.
Now this is just an idea guys tell me what you think :)

This is the fourth part in a short series from my time at field camp in college. You can read previous parts here. The last part will be posted next week.
I was alone, and things could have been better. Like if Doug was here. But it could have been worse too. Like if I had to work with anyone else. Last week during field camp, our field partners had been assigned, and while I liked the three guys I'd been assigned, let's just say we had different work philosophies.
Doug's hint during the mid term had cured my inability to read a map, and the last week had cured my desire for self-preservation. Since I had last heard Doug's wahoo, I had nearly fallen off a cliff, been seconds away from being swept away by a swollen stream, bordered on heat exhaustion, and pushed the limits of my mental distress until it came close to breaking. (Or maybe it actually did break.) I hadn't heard a single wahoo the whole time. Doug shouted from the mountain tops plenty, we just weren't together. We weren't even in the same canyon.
This week, I was glad to be working totally alone. Everyday, the TA would drop me off in the morning along a dirt road. Everyday, in the evening he'd be back on the road waiting. In-between it was all up to me. I didn't see a single person.
If I wanted to talk to myself I could. If I wanted to sing "If all the Rain Drops" I could. (This was particularly pertinent, since it rained. Often. My feet squelched with every step I took. For an entire week.) If I wanted to wahoo I could do that too, but I didn't.
My seven square miles were the farthest west in the class, which guaranteed my seclusion, since the bordering Indian Reservation and Ashley National Forest weren't hot tourist destinations. Of course, if I needed company, there were always the cows, although, cows are not my favorite companions. They always look ready to gore me.
At first, the solitude and magnitude of it all was daunting. I, alone had to map my area. Yes we had mapped before, and on the mid term, I'd even mapped alone, but everyone was doing the same assignment. The map I made for this assignment was going to be used in a Master's thesis and no one else was mapping it. If I screwed up, there wasn't a backup plan.
When I entered my area for the first time, I didn't have much to go on. We had only glanced at about a hundred different rocks that I could potentially stumble upon, and I had no way of know where I was geologically. This means I was unsure where I was in the span of 200 million years. I could have been literally anywhere (rivers, oceans, deserts) in that 200 million years, and only I could figure it out, because no one else was there. But you know what, I could take all the time I wanted, and identifying rocks is my thing.
Frontier Sandstone, Dakota Sandstone, Mowry Shale, Morrison Formation, Redwater Formation, Glen Canyon Formation, Duchesne River Formation. Duchesne River was like a weed. It covered everything. And halfway through the week, that's what I had been walking through. All. Day. Long. Oh no, this wasn't my idea. Our professor had hinted that maybe there was something that was actually interesting in this mess of a rock. I was going to do something useful, but he said go walk through the Duchesne River Formation all day.
The Duchesne was made up of the destroyed remnants of its ancestor rocks. A mere 40 million years old, it was the baby, having cannibalized it's predecessors that were tens, hundreds, even thousands of millions of years older. The nature of the rock reflected its appetite. It had digested sandstones, shales, quartzites, and conglomerates, and now seemed unable to decide which of these it wanted to be. I am a geologist, and cringe when someone callously says, "A rock is a rock," but the Duchesne River Formation, well it's just a rock. It was boring and I had to walk through a ton of it before I could get anywhere useful.
A morning searching in the Duchesne was enough. I decided that I was, in fact, not going to find anything exciting. Climbing the large hill trying to escape the Duchesne River was harder that it should have been, but when I got to the top I could see across the northern valley, to where the older sandstones rested. That is where I wanted to be.
"This is a good time to eat lunch." (Yes, I said this out loud. To myself.) It was also a good time to Wahoo. I was back on top of the world. I stepped onto a rock and opened my mouth. There was no one to hear me, no reason to be embarrassed. I had just talked to myself, but the wahoo wouldn't come out. I couldn't do it.
"The funniest thing happened today," Doug said that night as we sat at a picnic table dipping French fries in Wendy's Frosties. "I was on a hill, pretty high up and I decided to wahoo. I was wahooing a bunch, when suddenly there were all these cows around me. They were all just staring at me. It's pretty creepy. So I made fun of them." (See, talking to yourself, or cows, is not that weird.)
"You called the cows? How did you get rid of them?" I asked, savoring the icy chocolate and breathing in the warm summer air.
"Well I figured I would do like the cowboys," Doug said with a smile. I gave him a quizzical look. He shrugged. "I yelled 'Yah!'"
We enjoyed the sounds of the campground as we chewed the crispy fries. A volleyball game was materializing across the grassy field, and a family was roasting s'mores a few sites away. "I almost wahooed," I said. "But I didn't because, you know, I didn't want to be chased by cows."
Doug just laughed.

Miriam Martinez Solais worked six to seven days a week, 12 hours at a time, at Vesuvio's Pizza & Grill in Roxboro, North Carolina for six years. Yet she was only paid $400 a week. So after years of hard work, the 28-year-old woman quit and filed a complaint against her former employer with the North Carolina Department of Labor, claiming she was paid far below minimum wage and denied overtime compensation. The NCDOL and the federal Labor Department started investigating Vesuvio's.

This is our second year of ringing the bell for the Salvation Army. Costas enjoyed ringing the bell with gusto and handing out candy. He would look each person in the eyes as they walked by us. It is amazing how few people put in money while a little boy looked at them with pleading eyes. After an hour he became restless and wanted to go. The last half hour he played near me, but would occasionally ring the bell. Actaeos slept in the sling the whole time.

Nothing makes clients happier than feeling like you took the time to design a personalized experience for their event. With Salsa, you can use an overlay to help build the kind of fully customized guest experience to give an event that extra special touch.
Overlays often include branding elements, guests' names, and any design element you can dream up! For extra magic, you can even add a unique border around your images.
But what exactly is an overlay, anyway?
An overlay is a transparent image that sits on top of photos (and other content) that you take. Because overlays sit on top of your photos, you'll need them to be in a format that supports transparency. We recommend the PNG image format.
PNG files can be created with transparent backgrounds. Why does that matter? Well, imagine you have a client that wants to have their logo displayed on the bottom right corner of every piece of content taken at their event.
If you use a file that doesn't have a transparent background, like a jpg, you'll end up with your photos looking like this:
Please do not cover your guests' faces.😔
If you compare that to a photo with a PNG overlay, you'll see why transparent files are important:
PNGs are lit, fam. 🙌🏻
Having a PNG overlay becomes increasingly important as you create multi dimensional templates to lay on top of your content. You want the photos themselves to be visible through your template design, and a PNG file is the only way to make sure this happens.
If you're interested in creating your very own overlays for your events, Canva is a reasonably priced way for you to design and download transparent PNG files. With easy to use features, you can design beautiful, customized overlays sure to wow your guests.
To use Canva, start by entering in custom dimensions so you're sure that the file is appropriately sized. You want your overlay to be 2048 by 2732.
Take a look:
Now that you've entered in the dimensions, you can get started on your custom design.
Take a look through the elements in the left hand tools section to create a theme for your event. See the arrow? It points right to the search bar, and you can search for any element you think will fit your theme.
Play around with the templates and elements to create a design that works for your event. Be careful that your actual background is transparent. Read here for instructions on how to make your background in Canva transparent.
If you'd like to have a border around your photo, it's easy to do!
To add borders to your design, follow these steps:
- Open your design and go to the Elements tab.
- Enter 'borders' in the search bar.
- The various borders will appear in the search results. Click on one to add to your design.
Here's a little screen recording showing how to create a basic border with a transparent window. This window is where your captures will show through:
You can also add any other elements, like text, graphics, or photos to your heart's content.
Once you have your overlay created, you can download it as a PNG by tapping the download arrow:
Be extra, triple, super sure this file is 2048 pixels wide by 2732 pixels in height, and in a transparent PNG format. Check off that Transparent background box!
You'll need to save your overlays to your iPad. Using email or AirDrop are reliable ways to transfer and then save your files to your iPad's camera roll.
Your finished product will look something like this:
Wait, why is the background black? 😕
But if you put that same overlay on top of a photo, it's going to look like this:
Add your Overlay to an Event
Let's add your new overlay to an event. Here's how to do this in the:
Salsa iOS App
To upload and enable your brand new overlay in Salsa, head in to your Event Settings.
Tap on Overlays, then tap the Add Overlay text to upload an overlay to use with your event's photos.
Tap the "Change" text that appears next to the blank sample photo. You can choose your design by selecting it from wherever you have saved your files on the iPad.
Once you've selected the overlay you want, tap on Select to choose it. Don't forget to enable it!
Take a few test shots to make sure that your overlay is good to go. If things aren't working properly, make sure that the overlay you uploaded is a PNG file and that the dimensions of the file are correct.
Salsa web app
To add your new overlay to an event using the web app, browse to the event in your browser and click on Configure Event.
After the configure event window opens click on Event Capture Settings and then Overlays
Click on Add Overlay and navigate on your device to the overlay image you saved from Canva. How you find and select this image depends on the device and operating system you're using,
Take a few test shots to make sure that your overlay is good to go. If things aren't working properly, make sure that the overlay you uploaded is a PNG file and that the dimensions of the file are correct.
And that's it! You're really nailing this whole event thing.
