Do you want your child to attend a UC or CSU? If you are not familiar with the A-G Requirements for eligibility, please click on the following link to inform yourself so that you can properly guide your child in making the right choices in high school. If you're not familiar with these yet, it's time to start asking some questions! http://www.calstate.edu/sas/publications/documents/csu-uc-a-gcomparisonmatrix.pdf
Boosters November Meeting: The Brahma Boosters Organization would like to invite all DBHS Supporters to attend the next Brahma Boosters meeting which will be held on Tuesday, November 26 at 7 pm in the Golden Horseshoe. Come to this meeting and get insights on how you may become a Booster Member and be a part of the Booster support team. They are a tremendous part of our ability to continue to provide educational opportunities to your children.
Drug Dogs Are Back This Year: In an effort to deter drug possession on campus, Interquest Detection Canines are back. They will visit our campus from time to time to help us in our efforts to make our campus a safer place for your children.
Branding Iron: Diamond Bar Brahmas will play the Walnut Mustangs in the annual Branding Iron game this Friday. Come to WHS' Ken Gunn stadium at 7pm to cheer on your Brahmas to a three-peat against the Mustangs. It should be a great game and if it rivals last year's game in terms of energy and suspense, it will be a thrilling evening!
Diamond Bar High School's API Improves: Diamond Bar High School's API, or Academic Performance Index improved by two points last year to 877. In addition, this rise in our API occurred in a year where many schools across the state experienced drops in their scores. Although that was the last year of CST Exams, the growth in our overall API (as well as achieving significant growth in most sub-groups) was a validation of our efforts as a learning community and we expect to move forward with our academic goals as we move from CST Exams to the Common Core assessments this spring.
Common Core Standards are here! On October 2 of this year, the California state assembly voted to do away with our old STAR assessment system and make a bold move forward to new Common Core Standards assessment. Although this may seem confusing at first, the district is working hard to make sure that staff members at all levels understand the changes and modify our teaching strategies to ensure success for all of our students. This shift toward critical thinking abilities, problem solving skills and the creative process will allow our students to be more competitive in the global economy and will promote greater opportunity for all kids. Click here for a parent-focused synopsis on the changes Common Core Standards will bring about. If you'd like to view a short video on what inspired the creation of the new standards, click here. As we progress toward the spring, you will be receiving updates on the most recent plans for assessing our students according to the new standards. If you'd like to do more in-depth research on the Common Core Standards and how they will affect your child's educational experience, you may want to begin by clicking here.

In archival material, the diagnosis can often be confirmed by TFE3 immunohistochemistry (IHC), but variable fixation (especially prevalent in consultation material) can lead to equivocal results. A TFE3 break-apart fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay has been developed to detect TFE3 gene rearrangements; however, the utility of this assay in a renal tumor consultation practice has not been examined. We reviewed 95 consecutive renal tumor consultation cases submitted to rule in or rule out Xp11 translocation RCC. Thirty-one cases were positive for TFE3 rearrangements by FISH. Patients ranged from 6 to 67 years of age (mean=30 y; median=28 y). Novel or distinctive morphologic features of these cases included extensive cystic change simulating multilocular cystic RCC (3 cases), sarcomatoid transformation (3 cases), oncocytic areas mimicking oncocytoma (1 case), trabecular architecture mimicking a carcinoid tumor (1 case), colonization of renal pelvic urothelium mimicking urothelial carcinoma in situ (1), and focal desmin and diffuse racemase immunoreactivity (1 case each). Twenty-six of the 31 TFE3 FISH-positive RCCs were unequivocally positive for TFE3 by IHC, but 4 were equivocal, and 1 was negative. Of the 64 cases that were negative by TFE3 FISH, 50 were negative by TFE3 IHC, and 14 were equivocal. Thirty-two of the 64 TFE3 FISH-negative cases could be classified into other accepted RCC subtypes: 23 as clear cell RCC, 5 as papillary RCC, 3 as clear cell papillary RCC, and 1 as chromophobe RCC. The other 32 cases remained unclassified, including 3 cathepsin K-positive RCC that closely resembled Xp11 translocation RCC. In conclusion, TFE3 FISH is highly useful in renal tumor consultation material, often resolving cases with equivocal TFE3 IHC results. Given the difficulty of optimizing TFE3 IHC, TFE3 FISH is for most laboratories the optimal test for establishing the diagnosis of Xp11 translocation RCC.

Safe riding in groups
If you ride with a group, here are some guidelines which will make the ride safer and more enjoyable for all.
- Be predictable with your actions. Maintain a steady straight line and don't brake suddenly or change direction suddenly. Remember that there are riders following you closely.
- Ride beside your partner in the bunch. The person you are temporarily paired up with at any time as you ride along is your partner and you share a mutual responsibility for each other. If the pace is too high and your partner starts to lose the wheel in front, ride beside your partner and call out to the rider in front to moderate the bunch's speed.
- Point out and call out any road hazards ahead. These include pot-holes, drainage grates, stray animals, joggers, opening car doors and parked cars.
- Don't overlap wheels, that is to say remain entirely behind the rider in front of you. If you overlap wheels, just a slight direction change or gust of wind could easily cause you to touch wheels and fall.
- Pedal down hill when you are at the head of the bunch. The riders behind you will be coasting in your slipstream, but at least they won't have to be on the brakes.
- Keep left when in front to allow room for others to pass safely on your right, particularly in traffic. Only pass other riders on their right hand side.
- Be smooth with your turn at the front of a group. Don't increase your effort dramatically when you get to the front, because you will be causing riders behind you to do the same. A group will remain cohesive when turns are completed smoothly.
- Try to avoid leaving gaps when following wheels. Cyclists save about 30% of their energy by following a wheel. Each time you leave a gap you are forcing yourself to ride alone to bridge it.
- Don't panic if you bump shoulders, hands or bars with another rider. Try to stay relaxed in your upper body to absorb any bumps. By the way, this is the reason that most road bunches prefer riders to have drop handlebars, which are roughly the same width as your shoulders. Flat bars such as on a mountain bike are often wider than the rider's shoulders, and can hook up and create problems if riding in close proximity. Likewise, time trial handlebars or "tri" bars aren't suited to riding in a bunch.
- When climbing hills avoid following the wheel in front too closely. When the rider in front of you decides to stand up out of the saddle, the change in momentum can often catch a rider who is following too closely, resulting in a fall from a wheel touch.

This is a short follow-up piece to the article I wrote about Richard Dawkins and his views on abortion and Down Syndrome that I read in last week's audio blog. The response that we got from that piece when it was published was quite remarkable, so I use it as a case study for some of the things we talk about. Being extra intentional about understanding people and having clarity before responding to their views can make a huge difference for how pro-choice people respond.

Not sure how to put this but the Yankees got their asses handed to them by the Tampa Bay Rays on opening day. Tanaka didn't look like a guy who had a 0.38 ERA in Spring Training and certainly didn't look like the ace the Yankees are hoping he will be this year. He was not good. His splitter was up in the zone all day and his slider didn't slide and was left over the plate. Those things usually end in disaster for a pitcher and it was a disaster for sure. Tanaka gave up 7 earned runs and was pulled after 2 2/3 innings making that the shortest outing for a Yankee starter on opening day since 1983. On top of all that the Yankees meat of the order went 0-16 at the plate.
The good news Yankees fans is that this is only game 1 and I can assure you that this team has already forgotten about it. Tanaka will not be this bad again and the heart of the order will be getting at least another 500 at bats to improve. It's also really encouraging that Castro and Headley each had 3 hits. Castro is going to be a big part of the Yankees success this year at the bottom of the order and they are going to need him to get on base. I'm really excited for Headley who didn't get an extra base hit until after a month into the season last year. Getting confidence early for these 2 guys is huge for the Yankees. The bullpen also gave Yankee fans 5.1 innings without a run. That was the most impressive thing for me today. With all the uncertainty surrounding the starting rotation for this team, having the confidence in a bullpen to come in a shut the door is vitally important moving forward.
I know it sucks Yankee fans but it's a long season. We can take a deep breath and relax tomorrow and then get ready for game 2 on Tuesday. It wasn't all bad today. Keep the glass half full....For now.

Former Democratic staffer and West Wing writer Lawrence O'Donnell is the host of The Last Word, which airs weekdays at 10:00 PM Eastern on MSNBC.
Doing what liberals do best, O'Donnell has smeared not only President Trump as a racist but Chief of Staff John Kelly as well for being "full of hatred."
But when it comes to Barack Obama, O'Donnell views him as "the most noble man" ever to be President who wrote the "most honest," "open," "artful," and "finest literary work ever authored by a President of the United States" with Dreams From My Father. On a regular basis, he insults tens of millions of conservatives as racists, haters and homophobes.

Crash kills East Helena woman
HELENA – A 71-year-old East Helena woman died of injuries suffered in a two-vehicle crash north of East Helena.
The Montana Highway Patrol says the woman was westbound on Canyon Ferry Road Wednesday morning when her van crossed the center lane into the path of an eastbound pickup truck. Lewis and Clark County officials say June A. White was not wearing a seat belt and died at the scene of the crash.
The 59-year-old man driving the pickup had moved off the right side of the road in an unsuccessful attempt to avoid the collision. He was taken to the hospital for treatment of his injuries.

Jul 04, 2017 | ISBN 9781101918388 | 7-10 years
One of CCBC'S Best Books for Kids & Teens (2018)
"If ever there was a graphic novel geared toward young readers just begging to be made into a movie, this might be it." —Vancouver Sun
"Perfect for young readers wanting to try a graphic novel and will be enjoyed by reluctant readers and avid readers alike." —Calgary Herald
PRAISE FOR Audrey (Cow):
"Move aside Wilbur and Babe. There's a new farmyard hero in town, and she has no desire to end up hamburger. In a multiple-perspective, documentary-like format, each animal tells its part of the story with terrific humor and personality. …the many voices make the book an ideal read-aloud for a classroom and ideal fodder for readers' theatre. Bar-el is also unafraid to engage in truly lovely descriptive writing. Part Great Escape, part Hatchet, part Charlotte's Web, all wonderful."
—Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
"…[a] cleverly constructed story…. Bar-el creates a humorous chorus of perspectives, temperaments, dialects, and cadences….. Thoroughly charming…."
—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"Animal Farm meets The Great Escape…. Bar-el manages to gently and thoughtfully introduce kids to the concept of the abattoir while also underscoring that a farm's very purpose is producing food. At its heart, Audrey (Cow) encourages kids to think even as it entertains – the mark of wonderful children's literature."
—Quill and Quire, Starred Review
"This is no simple farm story; it is a powerful tale that takes a philosophical stance against today's meat industry. Written in transcripts of interviews from the perspective of various animal and human characters, the book emphasizes the emotional reactions of those surrounding Audrey. These monologues give readers the opportunity to discern different perspectives about the same events. Readers must make conclusions and predictions about the events, weighing the relative reliability of the various narrators. A unique approach to a sensitive topic."
—School Library Journal, Starred Review

OLIV Pit Athenian Grille Serves Up Authentic Greek Dishes
Falling somewhere between the food trucks passing gyros out their windows and the elegant dining spaces with white and airy color schemes inspired by Mykonos is OLIV Pit, Boca Raton's casual, authentic Greek restaurant.
Owners Emmanuel Vlahos and Marcos Alexandridis met through the Greek community and opened OLIV Pit last year at the Shoppes at Village Pointe in Boca Raton. Vlahos grew up in Ohio with Greek immigrant parents who were in the restaurant industry. He later attended college in Athens, Greece, and returned to America two years ago.
"After spending all that time in Athens, I saw that there was either high-end, luxury fish restaurants, like Milos in Miami, that were Greek, or there's a more traditional, more fast-food type of Greek," Vlahos says. "There wasn't anything in the 'premium casual'—what I like to call it."
In terms of authentic Athenian cooking styles, the restaurant uses barbecue briquettes made from charred olive pits to grill meats—an old concept popular in Greece and Europe.
Briquettes emit 30 percent less carbon than charcoal, are chemical-free and don't produce ash or smoke. Since it burns slower, the food takes on a subtle, smoked olive taste.
A taste of Athens
OLIV Pit draws inspiration from modern-day Athens for its carefully crafted menu.
"In Athens, you have grill houses like this that focus on the grill items," Vlahos says. "We wanted to focus on a certain part of Greek cooking and that way it stays fresh."
Choose a table inside for a view of the open kitchen, or outside in the back courtyard, and start the meal off with pita bread dipped into tasty spreads. The tzatziki is made with Greek yogurt, dill and fresh garlic and cucumber, and the tirokafteri (a spicy cheese spread) balances spices and flavor with feta cheese, green peppers and Greek olive oil. And try the meatballs, made using a traditional recipe and herbs imported from Greece.
OLIV Pit also offers a variety of salads, such as Greek bruschetta from the island of Crete, which comes with rusk bread, vine tomatoes, capers and manouri cheese. Or there's the Greek village salad with fresh vine tomatoes, cucumbers, Kalamata olives, mint and feta cheese.
Try selections cooked over the briquettes, including the lamb chops and jumbo prawns. Or, share a Pikilia Kreaton Mix Grill Platter that includes beefteki, gyro, side salad and skewers, plus all the works.
Pair the meal with an imported beer or wine from Greece hand-selected by Vlahos and Alexandridis, including Fix Hellas and Mythos. Homemade baklava, orange cake and Greek yogurt with honey are homemade dessert options well worth saving the room.

USA Map Illustration Poster Wall Art
£14.50 – £121.50
Full Description
I created this illustrated map of the United States of America as an ongoing map project that I have been working on.
The USA is one of my bucket list countries that I would love to visit one day and while I haven't visited the USA I spent months researching foods and unique features of each of the 50 states of the USA which resulted in this map.
I never knew before doing this project the USA has so many unique things. Take for example the Blue Whale Slides along Route 66. There are buildings shaped like products and of course there is some incredible food.
This map took me a few months to create but printed, especially large, it looks quite amazing.
Standard size for this print is A4 but I have also added a lot of variations to include different image sizes. Everything is printed onto top quality photo paper and depending on location the print will be posted flat or in a photo tube. Please note this doesn't include a frame.
Prices include domestic postage charges.

Avoiding Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians are extremely vulnerable as they interact with other motor vehicles while crossing the street. Thousands of innocent pedestrian victims suffer injuries or death in every state throughout the country each year. Most pedestrian accidents and fatalities are caused by the negligence of motor vehicle drivers – an egregious lapse of responsibility on the part of the negligent drivers as even the impact to a small car colliding with a pedestrian and a very slow speed has the potential to end in death.
If pedestrians can be considered quite vulnerable, then children are even more so and statistics show that nearly 50% of the thousands of traffic-related pedestrian deaths occur between the hours of 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM, when children travel home from school. Pedestrian accident lawyers are familiar with the statistics that follow and know what signs to look for when investigating the evidence to prove liability and negligence.
Pedestrian Accident Statistics
Statistics surrounding pedestrian accident show trends and dangers surrounding these horrific events. In general urban areas have higher rates of pedestrian deaths overall, but the ratio of pedestrian deaths to pedestrian injuries as higher in rural locations where cars generally travel much faster.
Intersections are shown to be dangerous locations for pedestrians, yet the majority of pedestrian injuries and deaths occur at other locations on the road, where cars are not anticipating the need to stop.
Males are significantly more likely to be involved in a pedestrian accident than females and 69% of all pedestrian accident fatalities are male.
Most fatal pedestrian accidents involving automobiles occur well after dark on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. This may be due to increased alcohol consumption on the part of both the pedestrians and the drivers of the motor vehicles.
Pedestrians are the second leading category of motor vehicle deaths after automobile passenger deaths; 11% of all motor vehicle fatalities are pedestrian deaths.
Pedestrian accident injuries are most likely to be sustained by the elderly or the very young – children under the age of 16 are more likely to be struck and injured by automobiles but the elderly are more likely to die as a result of a collision.
Speeding greatly increases the chance of a pedestrian fatality. A pedestrian collision with an automobile driving at 20 MPH has only a 5% chance of dying as a result as compared to an 85% chance of death if the vehicle was traveling at 40 MPH or higher.
Taking Legal Action after a Pedestrian Accident
Whenever a pedestrian is involved in an accident with a moving vehicle, there are many variables for a pedestrian accident attorney to consider when framing their case and tallying the total amount to submit for compensation.
Pedestrian accident lawyers must appraise the costs of medical bills and treatments, lost income and the expenses of future medical treatment, rehabilitation and reduced earning power as well as the pedestrian's comparative fault, the negligence or risky behavior of the driver and any other third party variables such as faulty or poorly maintained a crosswalk lights, road defects or defective automobile parts.
If you are a pedestrian recently injured on the street, then be sure to enlist the aid of an individual or team of pedestrian accident attorneys to help you win your claim.

New Year's Eve
Here and now, at the end of December, I just feel drained; even writing the overview of the last few months feels frantic. I did not participate in much holidaying- the only tree in my house is the desktop-size one from a classroom of mine from the past. I didn't decorate it.
Going into the next semester and into the next year, I want to find some sort of rhythm that feels somewhat sustainable to me. I like being busy and working towards goals- so I need to find some new goals that feel right.
I'm just struggling to figure out exactly what those goals should be- I suppose I need a healthy dose of inspiration. But first-rest.

Surfer Andy Irons 1978-2010
Read the story of his amazing life and untimely death here.
Andy was much beloved and respected in his home of Hawaii and across the world. A man who was very human in spite of being wildly popular.
When I read the article posted above, I was filled with a sense of sorrow and an immense sense of awe for the sacredness and gift of life.
Why things happen the way they do may not be known in this life.
All we do know is that God makes sense of our confusion and accompanies us in our deepest sorrows and mysteries.
My prayers go out to his family, especially his wife, due to give birth to their first child next month.
May he rest in peace and may perpetual light shine upon him.
God bless you, Andy.

How to find international movers in Dubai
The fact of the matter is that relocations are never easy. If truth be told, things tend to get a lot harder in case an international move is involved. When moving internationally, there is a lot that you need to pay attention to when moving to a different country. Apart from your visa and finding a place to live and finding a job, there is also the need for you to figure out how you will move all of your possessions. This is where the services of international movers Dubai come into play. Here is a look into the different factors that you must pay attention to when looking to hire such a company:
- Good experience and skills:
The people you are going to hire should have a good experience dealing with all kinds of moving requirements. So, you should go for such an agency or individuals who have sufficient experience. Only such people will know how to deal with valuables without causing a damage to them. Also, they can offer you with modified services and help you to meet all your cleaning needs.
- Nearby location is a must:
Instead of choosing a company which is located at a distance, better choose such people who operate nearby you. You will be having a better knowledge about their reputation and provided services. Apart from this you can easily evaluate if they have the capable manpower to serve you or they can make an easy arrangement if you need more people for some task. It will also help you to judge whether the people you are hiring are truth worthy and the information provided to you is genuine or not.
- Timely performance:
The cleaning service should be able to complete their tasks on time. So that it will not be disturbing your lifestyle. Else it will be distressing for the whole family as the sound of cleaning tools and vacuum cleaners etc. are much distracting.
- Suitable schedule:
You should make sure that the moving company you are hiring offers the services within the schedule you design. Usually it becomes difficult to manage the tasks and change the schedule. So the agency should be havin https://www.wrapitmoversinternational.com/
g such a schedule which matches your requirements well.
- Budget:
So far, the most important point is how affordable the rates are. Obviously no one wants to utilize all his or her money. So you should go for such company which offers services within a reasonable and satisfactory range. Even if you need to bargain, go for it. Moreover if you are going to hire them repeatedly, make sure that they offer you discount and best rates. You could look here for more information.

The head of an international pharmaceutical firm has been jailed for heading up what is believed to be the world's biggest ever illegal anabolic steroid distribution network.
A National Crime Agency investigation identified around 42 tonnes of importations of illicit anabolic steroids into the UK.
Investigators were able to directly link Jacob Sporon-Fiedler, 38, the CEO of Indian-based company Alpha Pharma, to around 16 tonnes of those imports with an estimated value of around £12m.
Sporon-Fiedler worked with a network of UK-based fixers, including Gurjaipal Dhillon, 65, and Nathan Selcon, 44. Dhillon and Selcon were responsible for arranging dozens of unlicensed shipments of drugs from India into Europe, and then distributing them.
The NCA investigation began in 2014, following a seizure of around 600 kilos of the class C regulated drug by Border Force officers at Heathrow Airport. The load was destined for an address in Belfast.
Following that, NCA investigators began to piece together the movement of dozens of unlicensed shipments of drugs, many of which were organised by Dhillon.
The illegally imported drugs - made by Sporon-Fiedler's pharmaceutical company in India – were shipped using Dhillon's contacts. Once in the UK they would be distributed by Selcon to be sold to body builders and fitness fanatics on the black market.
Selcon also had links to two other men, Alexander MacGregor and Mohammed Afzal, who had set up a purpose built illicit steroid laboratory to manufacture their own branded drugs. Inside the labs raw powder would be converted into a liquid solution that could be injected and sold in vials.
Two such laboratories were identified. One operating on an industrial estate in Harmondsworth was raided and shut down by the NCA in March 2015. Sporon-Fiedler had visited the facility shortly after being released on bail following his arrest at Heathrow airport. Evidence indicated it had been running for around four years, and officers found packaging and labelling for around £43m-worth of anabolic steroids.
NCA investigators were also able to prove links between the gang and another site in Slough which had produced steroids worth around £10m before it was raided by Thames Valley Police in Slough in 2009.
Selcon, Afzal and MacGregor were found guilty of conspiring to manufacture steroids on 4 April 2019, following a two month trial at the Old Bailey.
Dhillon was found guilty of conspiring to import steroids on 5 June 2019 following a separate trial. Sporon-Fiedler and Selcon had already admitted the charge.
On 14 November 2019 Selcon and Sporon-Fiedler were sentenced to six years and five years and four months respectively. On the same day, Dhillon was sentenced to five years and Afzal to two years in prison.
MacGregor will be sentenced at a later date.
NCA branch commander David Cunningham said: "This organised crime group was the most prolific of its kind ever uncovered, likely the biggest global players in the illicit anabolic steroid market.
"They had the ability to move tonnes of steroids into Europe where they would be sold on the black market, making tens of millions of pounds in profit.
"At the heart of the network lay Jacob Sporon-Fiedler, the CEO of the pharmaceutical company manufacturing the product itself. Text messages found on his phone indicated he wanted to ship around four tonnes a month into Europe, which demonstrates the scale of this enterprise.
"Sporon-Fiedler thought that by orchestrating this network from abroad he was untouchable, but following his arrest he found we had so much evidence against him he felt he had no choice but to plead guilty.
"We have managed to directly link him to 16 tonnes of illegal steroids imported into the UK, however it is likely this group were responsible for far more. Intelligence supplied by the NCA has triggered multiple seizures and criminal investigations by law enforcement partners across Europe.
"The important thing to remember is that all of these drugs were completely unregulated and unchecked, therefore they posed potentially major health risks to those who used them."
The NCA investigation drew on assistance from 30 different agencies in 26 different countries. In the UK that included Border Force, UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) and the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). The Danish police and German customs service also supported.
Speaking following the sentencing UK Anti-Doping's (UKAD) Director of Operations, Pat Myhill said: "We are very pleased with the outcome of this investigation. Our congratulations go to the team at the NCA for a successful resolution to this complicated case, which has identified significant distribution of image and performance enhancing drugs (IPEDs). Not only are these drugs a threat to clean sport, but they pose a very real danger to health.
"We were very happy to support the NCA in the investigation, especially in the early stages. The case demonstrates why excellent working relationships with law enforcement agencies are required to combat the varied threats to clean sport."
MHRA's Head of Enforcement, Mark Jackson said: "Medicines purchased outside the regulated supply chain cannot be guaranteed to meet standards of quality, safety and effectiveness and can present a real risk to public health. Some may contain dangerous ingredients which can have devastating consequences for patients who use them.
"The MHRA's intelligence-led enforcement operations proudly assisted the NCA in this operation and will continue its work in collaborating with partners to help to stop medicines from illegally entering the UK."

Location - East Chicago, Indiana
IDCS completed the Electrical and Instrumentation design for a new wastewater treatment facility for the treatment of contaminated groundwater, as well as the associated new Administration and Maintenance Buildings. This project had additional complications due to the hazardous ground water conditions and the coordination with other concurrent phases of work designed by others. IDCS worked hand in hand with the engineers and architects of MWH, Inc. for all of the power and control needs of the new facilities. The new facilities required a new incoming power supply and distribution of power and lighting as required by each building. This project was completed with the design intention of meeting the United States Army Corps of Engineers' SPiRiT system of sustainability. Control was based on distributed programmable logic controllers in each segment of control in the wastewater treatment plant. For this project, it was required that all design be completed using Microstation.

Currently serving as a faculty member of the American Management Association (AMA), author Joseph Heagney also was the global leader for project management best practices for the AMA. With this book in an impressive fifth edition, Heagney must be doing something right as he continues to have impressive sales of the series. In this edition, Heagney covers, as expected, topics related to the latest version of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK®), as well as the basics of project management.
He includes in Fundamentals of Project Management information on new topics such as stakeholder management, creating a communication plan, estimating, and project closure. The author argues that the goal of effective project management today, remains to execute a project on time, within budget, and within scope. What changed includes approaches and techniques to achieve that goal, as covered in this book.
What percentage of projects currently succeed in meeting their goals of being on time and within budget? Heagney addresses this (page xi) when he notes that the percentage remains "flat at 64 percent between 2012 and 2015." This is according to the Pulse of the Profession report published by the Project Management Institute. Heagney goes on to note (page xi) that high-performing organizations today "drive project management and meet original project goals and business intent two-and-a-half times more often" when compared to low performers.
A stakeholder, according to Heagney, could be "anyone who has a vested interest in the outcome of a project" and can have a "direct effect on whether your project will succeed or fail" and should be "managed throughout the life of the project" (page 47). Heagney gives tips on how to deal with stakeholders in the context of cultural factors and how best to communicate.
Overall, to stay effective, project managers today must make adjustments for factors such as "technological advances, workplace demographics, and global reach" (page xii). That is how the author sees it as he asks you to "learn from the past –and look to the future" (page xii). That sounds like great advice.
One of the exercises (page 45) in the current edition of Fundamentals of Project Management is for you to answer the question – "Which must be decided first for effective project management planning?"
a. Strategy
b. Tactics
c. Logistics
d. Does not matter
As you read the book, I think you will enjoy getting the answer provided by this insightful author.

Mozart, Shostakovich and Milhaud anchor a double-bill from an imaginative young harpist and the award-winning Quatuor Zaïde.
'The power of a musician, who plays honestly and purely, without compromises, but with a large degree of risk-taking, is what inspires me in music.' That's the artistic philosophy of harpist Remy van Kesteren; but it'd go for the young French Quatuor Zaïde too.
And this ECHO Rising Stars concert gives these artists ample scope to prove it, with van Kesteren pairing classics of French and South American harp music with a new commission from Oene van Geel, while Quatuor Zaïde sets Francesca Verunelli's new quartet alongside two touchstones of the quartet repertoire: Mozart's joyous G major Quartet and Shostakovich's shattering Seventh.

There are many accolades that can be said how well TJ Travel put together an itinerary for our two fleeting days in St. Petersburg Russia but I'm sure that I would not do them justice. For our particular tour there were only two couples so TJs booked a smaller van for our tour of the city and did not shortchange on any of the accommodations. The young lady who was our tour guide could not have been any more personable and her knowledge of St. Petersburg and its history kept us spell bound both days. One day our van got stuck in a traffic jam and was going to put us off schedule for the balance of the day so our Guide immediately improvised and arranged for us to hitch a ride with another TJ Travel group that had also just finished with this part of their tour and were schedule to go to the same next venue we were destined. Without hesitation both Guides made arrangements for us to hitch a ride on the other bus and we were on our way. After completing our walkthrough at the next stop our van Driver was able to get to our location and our day went on just as planned. Our Drivers knowledge of the traffic flow around the city made sure that we did not have to rush through any of the exhibits we were scheduled for on our complete tour and all of our booked time were on time for both days. The Driver exhibited excellent driving skills so that we passengers never felt any reason for apprehension as we made our way around this very large city. As far as we are concerned this tour was diffidently worth the money and meets and exceeds everything as advertised.
We would also like to comment about how well your company was represented by our Tour Guide, Tatiana Nekrasova, and our Driver, Vadim Sadikov. Both of these individual are a credit to you company and are exceptional individuals to be around. The are professionals and in a very short time make you fell like long lost friends. Thank You for assigning them to our tour. Because of them we will always hold dear the memories of our short time spent in Russia and all the people we meet along the way.
Tatiana your company was a pleasure to work with and your tour schedule for the two days we were in St. Petersburg was just jam packed with such wonderful highlights that our short time was more than well spent with your company. Keep up the good work and we will always remember you and your staff.

Cycling is a great way to stay healthy and get around while reducing your impact on the environment. Unfortunately, the roads are becoming increasingly dangerous for cyclists. According to recent data, motor vehicle crashes killed 840 cyclists across the U.S. in 2016, which was the highest fatality rate since 1991. A year later the journal Injury Prevention published a paper revealing that these accidents cost adult riders more than $24 billion a year.
The situation is so concerning that the Wall Street Journal devoted an entire podcast to the subject. It found that serious accidents tended to be more common in area where the weather is warmer, such as Florida and the other southern states, but it's evident that a catastrophic or even fatal accident could occur anywhere.
Here are some tips for protecting yourself from injury during your cycling excursions.
1. Wear a Helmet
While Missouri state law does not require adult cyclists to wear helmets, doing so is strongly recommended because a well-fitted helmet is your best protection against traumatic brain injury and other forms of head trauma if you are involved in an accident.
2. Obey the Rules of the Road
Cyclists are regarded as vehicle operators, meaning that you have to obey the same road rules as cars, trucks, and other motor vehicles. This means:
- Always ride in the same direction as traffic
- Watch for lane markings
- Act as directed when facing traffic signals and traffic signs.
3. Make Yourself Visible
To improve visibility, especially at night, install a front light on your bicycle and a red reflector or flashing light on the back. Brightly-colored or fluorescent clothing will make you stand out even more. Consider wearing these colors even during the day: these days, too many motorists are distracted and bright clothing will make you easier to see.
4. Avoid Distracted Riding
Motorists are not the only ones who chat on the phone, text, and listen to music while operating their vehicle. Cyclists are frequently observed doing the same thing, making it difficult for them to spot obstacles in their path or a car pulling out of the driveway in front of them. Leave all electronics safely stored until you reach your destination.
5. Avoid Blind Spots
If you pull up alongside a car or truck at an intersection, position your bicycle next to the passenger window where the driver can see you more easily. Otherwise, they could turn and collide with you, unaware of your presence. A good rule of thumb: if you can't see a driver through a window or side view mirror, they can't see you either.
If you are injured by a careless or negligent motorist while riding your bicycle, contact the bicycle injury attorneys at Ryan R. Cox & Associates. By reaching out to us as soon as possible after the accident, we can start obtaining, examining, and preserving the evidence needed to support a fair recovery. Consultations are free, so please call 636-946-6886 to schedule one today.

Miriam Makeba talks about racism, white supremacy and liberation during her visit to Finland in 1969.
Miriam Makeba talks about racism, white supremacy and liberation during her visit to Finland in 1969.
'"If we want a world with less suffering and more flourishing, it would be useful to perceive complexity and complicity as the constitutive situation of our lives, rather than as things we should avoid," she writes. We can't help that we've inherited these problems—a warming Earth, institutional racism, increasingly antibiotic-resistant bacteria—nor can we help sometimes perpetuating them. Better to stop pretending at purity, own up to our imperfections, and try to create a morality that works with them.'
Quite apart from the barbarities and blood baths perpetrated by the Christian nations among themselves throughout European history, the European has also to answer for all the crimes he has committed against the dark-skinned peoples during the process of colonization.
In this respect the white man carries a very heavy burden indeed.
It shows us a picture of the common human shadow that could hardly be painted in blacker colors.
The evil that comes to light in man and that undoubtedly dwells within him is of gigantic proportions, so that for the Church to talk of original sin and to trace it back to Adam's relatively innocent slip-up with Eve is almost a euphemism.
The case is far graver and is grossly underestimated.
Since it is universally believed that man is merely what his consciousness knows of itself, he regards himself as harmless and so adds stupidity to iniquity. He does not deny that terrible things have happened and still go on happening, but it is always "the others" who do them.
And when such deeds belong to the recent or remote past, they quickly and conveniently sink into the sea of forgetfulness, and that state of chronic woolly-mindedness returns which we describe as "normality."
In shocking contrast to this is the fact that nothing has finally disappeared and nothing has been made good.
The evil, the guilt, the profound unease of conscience, the obscure misgiving are there before our eyes, if only we would see. Man has done these things; I am a man, who has his share of human nature; therefore I am guilty with the rest and bear unaltered and indelibly within me the capacity and the inclination to do them again at any time.
Even if, juristically speaking, we were not accessories to the crime, we are always, thanks to our human nature, potential criminals.
In reality we merely lacked a suitable opportunity to be drawn into the infernal melée. None of us stands outside humanity's black collective shadow.
Whether the crime lies many generations back or happens today, it remains the symptom of a disposition that is always and everywhere present – and one would therefore do well to possess some "imagination in evil", for only the fool can permanently neglect the conditions of his own nature.
In fact, this negligence is the best means of making him an instrument of evil.
Harmlessness and naïveté are as little helpful as it would be for a cholera patient and those in his vicinity to remain unconscious of the contagiousness of the disease.
On the contrary, they lead to projection of the unrecognized evil into the "other."
This strengthens the opponent's position in the most effective way, because the projection carries the fear which we involuntarily and secretly feel for our own evil over to the other side and considerably increases the formidableness of his threat.
What is even worse, our lack of insight deprives us of the capacity to deal with evil.
Here, of course, we come up against one of the main prejudices of the Christian tradition, and one that is a great stumbling block to our policies.
We should, so we are told, eschew evil and, if possible, neither touch nor mention it. For evil is also the thing of ill omen, that which is tabooed and feared.
This attitude towards evil, and the apparent circumventing of it, flatter the primitive tendency in us to shut our eyes to evil and drive it over some frontier or other, like the Old Testament scapegoat, which was supposed to carry the evil into the wilderness.
But if one can no longer avoid the realization that evil, without man's ever having chosen it, is lodged in human nature itself, then it bestrides the psychological stage as the equal and opposite partner of good.
This realization leads straight to a psychological dualism, already unconsciously prefigured in the political world schism and in the even more unconscious dissociation in modern man himself. The dualism does not come from this realization; rather, we are in a split condition to begin with.
It would be an insufferable thought that we had to take personal responsibility for so much guiltiness. We therefore prefer to localize the evil with individual criminals or groups of criminals, while washing our hands in innocence and ignoring the general proclivity to evil.
This sanctimoniousness cannot be kept up, in the long run, because the evil, as experience shows, lies in man – unless, in accordance with the Christian view, one is willing to postulate a metaphysical principle of evil.
The great advantage of this view is that it exonerates man's conscience of too heavy a responsibility and fobs it off on the devil, in correct psychological appreciation of the fact that man is much more the victim of his psychic constitution than its inventor.
Considering that the evil of our day puts everything that has ever agonized mankind in the deepest shade, one must ask oneself how it is that, for all our progress in the administration of justice, in medicine and in technology, for all our concern for life and health, monstrous engines of destruction have been invented which could easily exterminate the human race.
No one will maintain that the atomic physicists are a pack of criminals because it is to their efforts that we owe that peculiar flower of human ingenuity, the hydrogen bomb.
The vast amount of intellectual work that went into the development of nuclear physics was put forth by men who devoted themselves to their task with the greatest exertions and self-sacrifice and whose moral achievement could just as easily have earned them the merit of inventing something useful and beneficial to humanity.
But even though the first step along the road to a momentous invention may be the outcome of a conscious decision, here, as everywhere, the spontaneous idea – the hunch or intuition – plays an important part.
In other words, the unconscious collaborates too and often makes decisive contributions.
So it is not the conscious effort alone that is responsible for the result; somewhere or other the unconscious, with its barely discernible goals and intentions, has its finger in the pie.
If it puts a weapon in your hand, it is aiming at some kind of violence.
Knowledge of the truth is the foremost goal of science, and if in pursuit of the longing for light we stumble upon an immense danger, then one has the impression more of fatality than of premeditation.
It is not that present-day man is capable of greater evil than the man of antiquity or the primitive. He merely has incomparably more effective means with which to realize his proclivity to evil.
As his consciousness has broadened and differentiated, so his moral nature has lagged behind. That is the great problem before us today. Reason alone does not suffice.
— From The Undiscovered Self (1957).
An honest song about the violence of white fear, and sadly just as relevant as ever.
[Note: Recent events in South Africa – from raging student movements across university campuses to xenophobic violence in the streets of Durban – seem to echo so many struggles both inside and outside the university "here." This is the first of hopefully several posts from South Africa, that seek to listen and travel across.]
Guest Post by RICHARD PITHOUSE
South Africa was supposed to be different. We attained our freedom, such as these things are, after everyone else but Palestine. It was late in the day but the afternoon sun was glorious and the best people, people who had passed through the long passage of struggle, told us that we would be able to avoid the mistakes made everywhere else.
There was a mass movement that, whatever its limits, had won tremendous popular support and carried some noble ideals through its travails. Its leaders cast long shadows. Our Constitution, we…

All Schleich figures are lovingly hand-painted with detailed modelling and allow children to learn as they play. Brachiosaurus translated means "arm lizard". It acquired the name, because its front legs were significantly longer than its hind legs. As such, its long neck pointed automatically upwards and it could eat taller plants with less effort. Brachiosaurus had a very flexible neck that could measure up to nine metres long.
EU Warning: Not suitable for children under the age of 3 years due to small parts which could cause a choking hazard

In Australia, MYM Nutraceuticals Inc. announced that Australia will expunge the export ban on cannabis products in February 2018 and allow the worldwide exportation of cannabis-based treatments such as oils, patches, sprays, lozenges and tablets. Solaris Nutraceuticals, an MYM joint venture company in Australia, is in the licensing process to build a 1.2 million square-foot greenhouse facility set to be the largest cannabis production facility in Australia.
Australia's Health Minister Greg Hunt stated, "We would like to be, potentially, the world's number one medicinal cannabis supplier. One of the conditions of any license for export is that medicinal cannabis be made available to Australian patients first. The sector is fully supportive of that. Australian patients come first. There are now no real government barriers at all to accessing medicinal cannabis."
MYM is focused on acquiring Health Canada licenses to produce and sell high-end organic medicinal cannabis supplements and topical products.

Until now, the cause of death of Dolores O'Riordan, iconic voice of The Cranberries who died in a London hotel at the age of 46, was unknown.
CNN reported Thursday that according to Britain's Press Association, the Irish musician died by drowning due to alcohol intoxication.
O'Riordan was in London recording a short session and was found unresponsive in the bath of her hotel room, PA reports. CNN reports:
Five miniature bottles and a bottle of champagne were found in the room along with containers of prescription drugs with a number of tablets inside, according to PA. Toxicology tests found O'Riordan had "therapeutic" amounts of medication in her blood, but more than four times the legal alcohol limit for driving.
— The Cranberries (@The_Cranberries) September 6, 2018
"Dolores will live on eternally in her music," her bandmates said in statement. "To see how much of a positive impact she had on people's lives has been a source of great comfort to us."

Recently I attended a meeting of an organization I belong to as a church musician. I enjoy going to these meetings…enjoy hearing new music and getting ideas for music I want to purchase to add to my library.
However, I also sometimes find myself cringing.
I am a classically trained organist. I love classical music…I find it very soothing. I love the music of "high church" and have played a lot of it. I've been playing for church in some form or another for almost 60 years, much of the time in "traditional" services.
Now, though, I find myself involved in a contemporary congregation. I am still involved in church music–but instead of playing organ, I often play piano…and am responsible for also scheduling some of the bands who rotate as part of our music ministry.
When I play, I still often use many more traditional hymns…ones that have been around for a long time and that I grew up with as well as some of the wonderful new hymns that have been written. However, I do not limit myself to them, but I look at much of the current praise music as well. Yes, there are some things out there that are not particularly inspiring–but that's also been true of hymnody. What we forget is that traditional hymnody has the advantage of at least a couple hundred years to cull out the things that are lesser; contemporary music is just beginning the time of doing that.
It is possible to find music that is appropriate for worship in both traditional hymnody and in what is commonly called praise music…but too often those two categories are seen as exclusive of each other–and often at war.
At this meeting I was at, there was identification of a job available. Part of the responsibilities included working with the praise team…and when that was stated, you could hear an audible groan. Several friends shook their heads and made faces of distaste.
But why?
If we see ourselves as music ministers, then isn't it important for us to be sensitive to the folks we minister to? Isn't it possible for us to recognize that different people respond to different kinds of music? Is it really so bad for some of our music to be simple repetitions of scripture verses…for that to be a way to memorize something that can sustain an individual in times of difficulty? Can't we find a way to honor and use the wonderful hymns that have stood the test of time…but to also look for the same kind of excellence in contemporary praise music?
Isn't there room for all of us at the keyboard? I think so.

This is the decorative cello that slides opens to reveal a symphony of spirits and stemware. Designed after a full-size 4/4 modern cello, it contains f-shaped sound holes, tuning pegs, and a classic top scroll—yet its absence of a bridge may make unschooled orchestra-goers question if it's Baroque. The cabinet's top, middle, and bottom shelves provide 8 1/2", 14" and 14 3/4" of vertical storage, respectively, that accommodates stemware or barware and libation bottles of various sizes. Although not intended to be played, the faux instrument provides string-concert enthusiasts with access to a brandy or Bordeaux for harmonious quaffing to Bach's cello suites or Beethoven's Triple Concerto. Ideal for sophisticated entertaining in a parlor or study, it rests on an included wood stand, is constructed from tropical hevea brasiliensis, and is treated for protection against pests and moisture. Stemware not included. Assembly required. 72 3/4" L x 26 3/4" W x 8 1/2" D. (75 lbs.)

About the Award
Each year, the Bruinlife yearbook selects a small group of students who exemplify the ideals of the university. We try to highlight excellence in a variety of forms, including academics, community service or activism in school life. You are invited to apply for the award if you believe you are someone who embodies one or more of these ideals.
A Word On the Application
The written application process is never perfect because it's difficult to convey the intangibles of a person's attributes on paper. Although we ask you to include a resume and letters of recommendations (maximum of 2) with this application, we want to learn as much as we can by asking some questions, too. Your activities and achievements are important, but we also want to learn about the kind of person you are.
Deadlines & Selection
DEADLINE: May 11, 2020 by noon!
After reviewing the nominations, the BruinLife staff will select finalists to interview with the SOTY Selection Committee. Winners of the award will be featured in the 2019 BruinLife Yearbook & BL Commencement Magazine.

The German Forex Market no more functions with the foreign Exchange Rate of the Deutsche Mark as its performance indicator. The Deutsche Mark was integrated into the Euro along with the currencies of member nations of the European Union in 1999, and so the exchange arte of the Euro is its indicator.
In 2002, the inception of the notes and coins of the Euro, the common currency of the member nations of the European Union led to the immediate cessation of the circulation of the Deutsche Mark as the legal tender in the German Forex Market. In contrast, in the other Euro countries, the respective national currencies were still being circulated.
A single unit of the Euro is equivalent to 1.95583 Deutsche Marks, which is the the erstwhile currency of unified Germany. The Deutsche Mark is now amongst the best performing currencies in the world backed by the current popularity enjoyed by the German Bonds in contrast to Bonds issued by the other nations. To add to this, people across the world are changing the various currencies possessed by them into the Deutsche Mark. All of this have played an active role in turning the German Forex Market one of the most profitable in the world, if not the most profit making.
Financial organizations like the Deutsche B�rse have played an active role in appreciating the exchange rate of the Deutsche Mark against the major currencies in the world. The Frankfurt Stock Exchange which is probably the most profit earning stock exchange across Europe, is owned and operated by the Deutsche B�rse, and therefore riding the superb performances of the Financial organizations the German Forex Market has returned much more than the worth of the investments made into it by its investors.
The German Forex Market, however presently functions with the Euro as its legal tender and the direct quote of DEM/EUR is at present just below the 2.0 mark.

Impregnated timber
Impregnation is the first thing to do to protect timber. Impregnation protects timber against fungi and mould. It does not, however, protect timber against UV-radiation. In order to protect timber against UV-radiation, the material must be treated with some type of surface paint or an impregnator that contains pigments.
Sample prices for impregnation (colourless), 4 sides:
95-120 mm: 2.16 euros/m2
145-170 mm: 2.10 euros/m2

This tradition dates from the Victorian era (late 19th century), has survived down the centuries and still contributes today to young couples' happiness.
On the day of their wedding, the bride follows this tradition according to which she must, for a happy marriage, wear four selected items, which can be items of clothing or fabrics, but which have these precise characteristics:
- One of the items must be old
- Another must be new
- Another must be borrowed
- Another must be blue.
Something "old" symbolised the link between the bride and her family, her parents, and her childhood spent with them. This does not necessarily mean something that is old-fashioned or that has deteriorated. It can be a piece of jewellery that has been in the family for years.
Something "new" is intended to represent happiness and success for the bride as she starts her new life. She often chooses her wedding dress for this.
Something "borrowed" is meant to bring good luck and happiness to the bride in her married life. The item is borrowed from a female friend or family member said to have made a very happy marriage. It is often an accessory already worn to an earlier wedding, such as a pair of gloves or a veil.
Then, something "blue", a custom that dates from the old beliefs of Roman civilisation, according to which the colour blue was the pagan symbol of love, modesty and fidelity. This custom is fulfilled by a hidden accessory such as a handkerchief or the garter chosen by the bride.
All these items are given by wellwishers from among those close to the bride, such as her mother, an aunt, a sister or a friend. Each makes her own contribution to the wedding and in this way shares in the couple's happiness. If these little items are given by older members of the family, the gift is all the more precious, as it is a reminder of previous generations.

Lt Gov Candidate Edwards fires at Duffy (who?)
"Unproven allegations, twenty year old DUI's and a tax debt that's a tiny fraction of Mayor Robert Duffy's own overtime padding and double-dipping won't stir the voters. Come out of the closet and on to the issues in debate, Mr. Mayor, or pay the price on November 2nd."
Lt. Gov. candidate asks "is Duffy as afraid to debate the issues as Andrew Cuomo?"
Chautauqua County Executive Greg Edwards, the Republican and Conservative Party candidate for Lieutenant Governor of New York, today challenged his opponent, Rochester Mayor Robert Duffy, to a debate on the issues. He also derided Andrew Cuomo for his thorny rose garden strategy and ducking debates.
"Why is Cuomo afraid to openly debate the issues with Carl Paladino? It is time for Robert Duffy to come out and address the voters of New York," Edwards said "Or like his running-mate Andrew Cuomo will Duffy duck the debates New York taxpayers deserve?"
"Robert Duffy is a double-dipping politician and that fits Andrew Cuomo perfectly – they are two rotten peas in a pod," Edwards said. " Voters have been asking me about my position on Duffy keeping a $70,000 New York State pension while simultaneously receiving his Mayoral salary of $127,694. At a total of over $197,000, Duffy's compensation is more than the salaries of the governor and chief judge of New York – all at tremendous cost to beleaguered taxpayers.
"It's time for Mayor Duffy to come out and debate," Edwards said. "The people deserve a comparison of the candidates on the issues, and since Cuomo is ducking debates, lying about his efforts to dodge and hiding in a thorny rose garden from the taxpayers, maybe his Lieutenant will debate."
"Our campaign hasn't heard a word from the Cuomo camp since they bluffed their interest in debates. I am ready, willing and able to debate my opponent. Duffy needs to stand up like a man and accept debate dates immediately. We have 34 days left and the voters deserve better than Cuomo's approach of hiding."
"They are both afraid of addressing issues the voters want answers to: like where do they stand on Obamacare, which will cost the working man and woman in New York far more in tax dollars and give them no more medical care? Where do they stand on double dipping and retirement padding, which costs the taxpayers millions? And why do they insist on raising taxes and spending instead of giving the taxpayers the relief they deserve – tax and spending cuts to create jobs and start our state back on the road to recovery?"
