Dan Rosen, of Plymouth, Massachusetts, provides a glimpse of what was worn and how clothes were made during the 1500s and 1600s.
NEWPORT — Dan Rosen, of Plymouth, Massachusetts, uses the materials, sewing instruments and techniques of the 1500s and 1600s to create the clothes people wore during that era, the centuries when the Americas were first settled.
He had the fabrics and clothes spread out on a table in the Wanton-Lyman-Hazard House — built in 1697 — on Saturday and held the attention of more than two dozen people at any given time during the four hours of arriving and departing visitors. He was wearing replicated clothes of that time, and his presentation was interactive, with a lot of questions and answers and people examining and holding the items.
"This is all part of our History Space Initiative," said Elizabeth Sulock, curator of living history for the Newport Historical Society. "It's living history programming."
"I'm interested in history when it is about what people wore, what they ate and how they built their homes — how they survived in general," said Louise Duckworth of North Kingstown, one of the many visitors. "I'm less interested in learning about all the battles and who fought them."
"There is a whole history behind clothing and the evolution of clothing," she said.
Among the many knowledgeable observers was Janna Pederson, of Portsmouth, a costumer and seamstress for movies, theater and dance companies.
"It's fascinating to listen to someone who does all this the way it was done 400 years ago — keeping the tradition alive with the workmanship and tools of those times," she said.
Her grandfather was a tailor who immigrated to the U.S. from Prata Sannita, Italy, and worked in Providence, she said, adding that he would have been fascinated by the small metal buttonhole cutters.
"The tools are beautiful," she said.
"A lot of what we imagined people wore in those days comes from paintings and drawings showing them all dressed up," said Tom Pederson, Janna's husband. "We don't see their everyday clothes."
"There are misconceptions about what people wore at the time," Rosen said. "Many people think they wore one set of heavy, thick and itchy wools constantly, but that's not true. They had seasonal clothes."
During his research, he found dozens of lists from the 1600s of what people should bring from England to the New Land. They included things like armor, tools, nails and preserved foods, but also clothes. The lists recommend bringing at least three full sets of seasonal clothes, pretty much corresponding to summer, fall and winter, Rosen said.
Summer clothes were a canvas-type cloth made of linen or hemp fabric. The autumn clothes were made of a fine wool cloth, while the winter clothes were made of "frieze, a really thick wool that was hairy dense and waterproof," he said.
The suit made of the finer wool could be worn underneath the frieze clothing. People traditionally wore a linen shirt against their skin that could be washed more easily than the woolens, Rosen said.
Those lists of the times didn't mention the word "coats." However, they recommend "rugs," which referred to heavy wool cloaks or capes that could be donned over the frieze wool jacket and pants.
The 1600s were the height of what is called the "Little Ice Age" that extended roughly from the 1300s to the 1800s, when there was a cooling of the Earth and winters were especially harsh.
In brutally cold weather, the early colonists would have worn a linen shirt, a waistcoat, which is a type of vest for warmth, a fine wool cloth suit, the frieze clothes and finally the "rug," Rosen said.
"It was layer after layer after layer that kept them warm," he said.
People had issues with the cold and there are references to people losing their toes in contemporary documents, Rosen said. But, especially in Virginia, there is more reference to people dealing with the oppressive heat, he said.
"I liked that he covered so many topics, like the false belief that people just wore black and white back then," Duckworth said. "If you lived in a sad, cold, dismal place, color would bring a bit of happiness to your life."
"Creating clothes that are a deep, dark, rich black requires a lot of work," Rosen said. "They were the most expensive fabrics."
When people of the era had their portraits painted or drawn, they wore their best clothes, which were black. However, even the Puritans wore dark greens and oranges, he said.
A native of Chicago, Rosen was in the fourth grade when an 18th-century reenactor came to his school. He was hooked on history.
"That blew my 9-year-old brain," he said.
In high school, he wanted to be part of a group that fired muskets, but he had to make period clothing to join.
"I had to sew the clothes all by hand, and went to historical documents to find out how they did it in their own words," he said of what eventually became his hobby. "I was interested in how they were really made."
Rosen became a public school art teacher professionally, although he has been working outside the field more recently. But his hobby of recreating the clothes of early Colonial days continues.
"If I find clothes from the 1600s period in a museum and I can examine them — that helps me a lot," he said. "I think of it as detective work."

Do I need to have a 200 hour certification to join the 100 hour Yin Yoga teacher training course?
No, you do not need to have any previous yoga education. On every Yin Yoga course there is an introduction to the foundation of the practice and teaching of Yin Yoga as well as the body and its anatomy. The course builds upon this foundation to deepen the experiential learning of Yin Yoga.
Is there any free time during the course?
Yes. There is a short break in between every session as well as a longer break for breakfast and lunch (for residential courses). There is free time after the course for relaxation. In between module 1 and 2 there is a day off to explore the surrounding environment.
Do I have to want to teach Yin Yoga to attend the course?
No. Many students attend the course to get a better understanding of their practice, their body, mind and to develop their own spiritual journey. This course is a great opportunity to develop your yin and yoga practice and approach to life.
Will I be able to teach Yin Yoga after this course?
Yes. Upon successful completion of this course students are presented with a YACEP certification (Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider). You will be equipped with the fundamental knowledge of what it means to be a yin yoga teacher and how to put it into practice, in the shala, on the mat and in life.
What does the signature 100 hour Yin Yoga course cover?
This signature course has two modules:
1) Anatomy, Fascia and Function with Teaching Methodology
2) Chinese Medicine with Teaching Methodology
Within both modules there are theoretical and practical workshop training sessions on yin yoga practice, anatomy, fascia, asana breakdown, the art of teaching, yang yoga, intro to philosophy, Chinese Medicine, theory of qi, Intro to Daoism, history of Yin Yoga, group work sessions and other spiritually connected practices.
What does the 100 hour Yin Yoga and Mindfulness course cover?
The mindfulness 100 hour course focuses on Yin Yoga with a deeper connection to meditation, mindfulness, neuroplasticity, pranayama, breathing and journal writing. This course focuses more on the mental dimension of the body, taking your journey of min-body connection much deeper. This course can be taken either in conjunction with the signature 100 hour course (if the courses are running in a row or in the same location) or as an additional course later on in your yoga journey.
What does the 200 Hour Yin Yoga course cover?
The 200 hour is a course that focuses on Yin Yoga by taking a look at 5 different approaches which sync up with the 5 dimensions of the body. There are many ways to practice and teach Yin Yoga and focusing on anatomy (which is normally the structure of a yin yoga course) is only one way.
Can I attend one of these Yin Yoga courses if I have already trained in Yin Yoga with another teacher?
Yes. All teachers are different and all have different backgrounds, focus, experiences and educational specialities.
What is your focus and educational speciality?
The courses given by Shanti Atma Yoga are very focused on developing ones foundation of yin yoga as a holistic practice, incorporating the 5 dimensions of the body (physical, energetic, emotional, mental and spiritual). There is a heavy focus on teaching methodology and anatomy (fascia and myo-fascial release) which will then link on to some of the other courses and workshops offered.
Why should I attend a course run by Shanti Atma Yoga?
If you are looking to develop your practice and fundamental understanding of yin yoga as an approach to yoga and life then this course will bring you close towards the level of experience that a class, retreat or workshop doesn't have time to reach.
If you are looking to further your yin yoga teaching career then this is the perfect opportunity to break down all of the components involved in being a yin yoga teacher from asana, cueing, physical and energetic target areas, propping and making the practice available to every body type to the behaviour and responsibility of a (yin) yoga teacher.
I am already a bodyworker and have already studied anatomy, are these courses still for me?
Yes. In Yin Yoga we look at the functional approach to (yin) yoga and how we can integrate myo-fascial release, meditation and mindfulness into the physical, energetic, emotional and mental body. While having a background in anatomy will give you a strong foundation to dive deeper, this course takes different approaches to connect different realms together.
I have already been self-studying Yin Yoga for a while. Will I learn anything new?
Self-studying is great and high recommended. This course will give you valuable one on one time with the teacher to ask any questions and raise any confusion or concerns, offering a level of support that is not so readily available in self-study. Becky encourages you to continue studying after the course based on your personal practice and professional goal.
I am not ready to commit to a 10 day training course

Alexander the Great is quoted as having said:
"…I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep; I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion…"
My first impression of this comment was that the lion would be fearless in its' leadership style. But on closer examination there are a number of qualities of the lion that translate into effective leadership. And while I doubt that Alexander necessarily had them in mind, these are equally important to the lion's effectiveness.
1. Despite its individual strength, lions work best in the collective strength of the pride. This allows them greater success in hunting and in protecting against threats.
2. Lions are very effective communicators. Their roar can communicate up to 5 miles and yet they can hunt successfully without any sound because of their ability to read each other almost telepathically.
3. Lions are vicious competitors but are highly social and caring within the pride.
4. A lion's vision is 6 times better than a human's. As a night hunter this provides an obvious and important advantage that they use to their benefit.
5. Lions carry themselves with distinction that has afforded them the name of "King of the Jungle". There is a dignity and a presence that is both palatable and real.
Take a moment to reflect on your personal leadership style.
Are you able to use the strength of your team to accomplish goals? Does your style maximize potential? Or are you the 'do as I say' type that dictates both the goal and the procedure to attain same?
Have you developed and polished your communication style so that others fully understand and buy into the team/corporate strategies? How do you test your style to ensure that what you want others to hear is actually being heard and understood and implemented? Failure to communicate properly leads to frustration and lost opportunity.
Do you give a damn about your staff or are they lucky to have a job? Increasingly employees are attracted to and retained by those companies who put employee well-being as a priority. If your true attitude does not reflect this as a core value, you attract less than the best. Today's ultra-competitive workplace will soon separate you from those employers who have established this rapport with their most important asset.
Night vision is a benefit to the lion. Indeed, it is crucial to its survival. Your strategic vision is its counterpart. If you don't know where you are headed, and why, you only hasten your demise. If this is not a core strength, get help…professional help…before it is too late.
It has been said that one should dance like no one is watching. But as the leader you must conduct yourself morally, ethically and legally as if the whole world could see you simultaneously. Lead with integrity and honour befitting of the privileged role that you occupy. That alone inspires others to service.
Alexander may have seen the warrior in the lion. Today that is not nearly enough. Expand your understanding and expand your performance!

Hotel Information & Accommodations
Check-In: 4pm & Check-Out: 11am
AAA Inspector Notes
"Charming Princeton has its fair share of gracious accommodations, but this small inn tops the ranks, intelligently blending the authentically historical with fine, contemporary luxury. Renovated to a high standard in 2010, the boutique aspects of the property allow for a highly personalized experience. For travelers in town for business or pleasure, it is hard to beat having fine dining on site, as well as a comfortable, upscale bar that also serves full and quite dazzling dinners. Steps from the main thoroughfare of Nassau Street, the property originally was an early 20th-century rooming house, which placed no religious restrictions on guests, as other Princeton hotels did at the time. Albert Einstein was a guest, first arriving in Princeton after fleeing the Nazis. The hotel discreetly plays host to many of today's tech, show business and business luminaries. Rooms vary in size, but all have upscale décor and custom or antique furnishings. This lovely corner of New Jersey is as close to Manhattan in mood as it gets.

I have been remiss as of late for not posting any of the great dive bars that we have been visiting. Granted The Royal Palms is a Classic but we have been finding some great bars in our vicinity. Even the Murphranks remarked "You guys are doing some great re-con work" because we found a great one a couple of weeks back.
Across Flatbush Avenue is the Fort Greene neighborhood. It is home to one our favorite bagel shops and has a couple great Mexican joints that we have frequented. On my weekend walks to the bagel joint is an establishment that always catches my eye by the name of Franks Lounge. On Sunday we decided to swing by and have some beers. The bar is old school and naturally "Cash Only" but the decoration is defiantly stuck in the 80's.
Yep Little Sister and Axl – This joint is older than you are!
Mary Louise was somewhat disappointed that she couldn't order her fancy wine so she settled for a Bud Light.
Not sure about the ceiling but this joint had a certain flair to it. Kinda reminds us of Jimmy's Corner meets Raifords
The bar was open that Sunday afternoon. God love the old school bars
Got to love the memorial
I need to swing by Hank's and bring my camera. That is another one!

Gordon Parks returned to his hometown in southeastern Kansas in the spring of 1950 to make the series of photographs that would accompany an article for Life magazine meant to center on the issue of segregated schools and their impact on black children in the years prior to the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka decision (1952–54). Fort Scott was the town that Parks had left more than twenty years earlier, and he used this assignment to revisit early memories of his birthplace, many involving serious racial discrimination, and to reconnect with eleven members of his junior high school graduation class and discover what had become of them since his departure.
When Parks arrived in 1950, only one member of the class remained in Fort Scott, while the rest had followed the well-worn paths of the Great Migration in search of better lives in urban centers such as St. Louis, Kansas City, Columbus and Chicago. Traveling to these cities, Parks found his friends and their families and photographed them on their porches, in their parlors and dining rooms, on their way to church or at work, sitting down to interview them about their decision to leave the segregated system of their youth and head north. His resulting photo-essay and planned cover were finally slated to appear in Life in the spring of 1951, but were replaced by Truman's firing of General MacArthur and were never published.

One who has come many places to see me in the states made her first journey overseas to see a performance in Glyndebourne - my aunt. Recently retired, she has been able to take advantage of her new-found freedom to do what she loves best - explore the world. She's been all over the world, but has never been able to work it out before to come see me sing when I am abroad. It was nice to be able to be an excuse for her to be able to visit somewhere new. An added bonus of having her as a visitor was that it allowed me to do what I never seem to get to do on the road. Be at tourist.
Here's a picture of her engaging in her other favorite pastime.

It was Papa Don's 80th birthday on June 29th so we celebrated with a big party on the 3rd. The entire family came up (and over) to Manhattan for the party and a family reunion.
Friday night we had a family dinner and family pictures taken. We then had some friends from Manhattan stop by to help us eat an awesome cake that Kelly had made. We held it at the Train Depot which was the perfect size for our "controlled" madness.
I didn't get a lot of pictures because I was busy, but here are some that Adam or I took...

These Hedland flow meters features quality metal construction in aluminum, brass, or stainless steel. You can choose from six port sizes from 1/4" to 1-1/2".
These variable area flow meters can be used in applications in which the temperature ranges from -20 to 400°F (continuous) and 400 to 500°F (intermittent). Stainless steel flow meters are pressure rated for 6,000 psi/414 bar maximum (5,000 psi/345 bar maximum for 3/4" to 1-1/2" series) with a 3:1 safety factor. Aluminum and brass flow meters are pressure rated for 3,500 psi/241 bar maximum with a 3:1 safety factor. Brass models are highly recommended for water systems or for systems where galvanic corrosion may be a problem.
The Hedland Flow Meter for Water-based Fluids has a flow range from 0.1 to 150 GPM.
Operating Principle
All Hedland variable area flow meters use a sharp-edged annular orifice, formed between the open-centered piston and a contoured metering cone. The piston is held in a "no flow" position at the base of the contoured cone by a calibrated retention spring. Flow through the meter creates a differential pressure across the piston orifice, moving the piston against the spring. The greater the volume, the further the piston moves. Externally, the flow indicator is magnetically-coupled to the moving piston. The indicator is visually "read" against a graduated flow scale.

Capital acts as a cushion against losses and affords protection for depositors when a bank is struggling financially. It follows then that a bank's level of capital is a valuable measurement of an institution's financial resilience. From a safety and soundness perspective, the higher the capital, the better.
Hawaii National Bank received a score of 8 out of a possible 30 points on our test to measure capital adequacy, lower than the national average of 13.13.
One essential measure of this buffer is a bank's Tier 1 capital ratio. Hawaii National Bank's Tier 1 capital ratio was 12.55 percent, higher than the 6 percent level considered adequate by regulators, but below the national average of 25.65 percent. The higher the capital ratio, the better the bank will be able to weather financial headwinds.
Overall, Hawaii National Bank held equity amounting to 8.89 percent of its assets, which was lower than the national average of 12.03 percent.
This test is intended to try to understand how the bank's capitalization and allocated loan loss reserves could be affected by problem assets, such as past-due loans.
Having large numbers of these kinds of assets suggests a bank may have to use capital to cover losses, reducing its cushion of equity. Many of those assets are also likely to be in non-accrual status and thus aren't earning money, pushing down earnings and increasing the chances of a failure in the future.
Hawaii National Bank scored 40 out of a possible 40 points on Bankrate's asset quality test, exceeding the national average of 37.49.
A handy indicator of asset quality is the percentage of problem assets a bank holds compared to its total assets. As of December 31, 2017, 0.01 percent of Hawaii National Bank's loans were noncurrent -- in other words, they were more than 90 days past due or were in non-accrual status. That's below the national average of 1.01 percent.
Banks keep a reserve known as an "allowance for loan and lease losses" to deal with troubled assets . Comparing the reserve's size to the total amount of problematic loans can be a helpful indicator when evaluating a bank's ability to manage problem assets. Hawaii National Bank's loan loss allowance was 11,790.00 percent of its total noncurrent loans, exceeding the national average. All things being equal, the higher the ratio of loan loss allowance to noncurrent loans, the better.
How profitable a bank is has an effect on its long-term survivability. A bank can retain its earnings, increasing its capital cushion, or put them to work addressing problematic loans, potentially making the bank better able to withstand economic shocks. Banks that are losing money, however, have less ability to do those things.
On Bankrate's test of earnings, Hawaii National Bank scored 8 out of a possible 30, less than the national average of 15.12.
Return on equity, calculated by dividing net income (profit, basically) by total equity, is one important measure of a bank's earnings. The most recent annualized quarterly return on equity for Hawaii National Bank was 3.10 percent, below the national average of 8.10 percent.
The bank earned net income of $1.8 million on total equity of $59.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. The bank reported an annualized return on average assets, or ROA, of 0.27 percent, below the 1 percent deemed satisfactory in accordance with industry standards and below the average for U.S. banks of 1.00 percent.
Bankrate.com's Safe & Sound Ratings provide a star rating system to evaluate the current financial status of financial institutions. The information gathered about banks, credit unions and thrifts is updated as set forth in the Terms of Use of Safe & Sound Ratings and Reports. The Safe & Sound Ratings information is grouped by categories of banks, thrifts and credit unions.
Bankrate.com evaluates the financial condition of institutions and assigns a one- to five-star rating for each with five stars representing the highest rating. Institutions with satisfactory performance will generally receive a rating of three or more stars. The majority of institutions fall into the three- to four-star range. An institution with an "NR" rating may be too new to rate or may have limited the publicly available information in their regulatory filings. The "NR" is not an indication of financial strength or weakness. The Safe & Sound rating is believed to be reliable, but the information is not guaranteed. In addition, events since the information was collected may have altered the institution's financial condition.

INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR APPLIED SYSTEMS ANALYSIS - 2013 - Analysis of possible climate change impacts on agriculture and food security in Ukraine using GLOBIOM model. Introduction Climate change adds another challenge to the world food system – a system that is supposed to feed everybody while ensuring the sustainable management of natural resources.
Is mankind adequately prepared to face this challenge? Climate change impacts on agricultural systems will vary between countries and regions. Increased heat waves and lower precipitation level, as predicted by climate change modelers, may shock the production of major world grain producers. Many scientists consider that impacts on Ukrainian agriculture may not be as disastrous as in other countries.
Methodology We used IIASA's GLOBIOM model to analyze climate change impacts on agriculture and the dynamic recursive procedure for downscaling and harmonization of data. Results The index of gross agricultural production in 2011 has increased by 82.6% compared to the 1990 level. Conclusions. Climatic Change - May 2013 - Consequences of climate change for the soil climate in Central Europe and the central plains of the.
This study aims to evaluate soil climate quantitatively under present and projected climatic conditions across Central Europe (12.1°–18.9° E and 46.8°–51.1° N) and the U.S.
Central Plains (90°–104° W and 37°–49° N), with a special focus on soil temperature, hydric regime, drought risk and potential productivity (assessed as a period suitable for crop growth). The analysis was completed for the baselines (1961–1990 for Europe and 1985–2005 for the U.S.) and time horizons of 2025, 2050 and 2100 based on the outputs of three global circulation models using two levels of climate sensitivity. The results indicate that the soil climate (soil temperature and hydric soil regimes) will change dramatically in both regions, with significant consequences for soil genesis. However, the predicted changes of the pathways are very uncertain because of the range of future climate systems predicted by climate models.

ESA JOURNAL - DEC 2013 - Climatic turning point for beech and oak under climate change in Central Europe. PUBLIC SERVICE EUROPE 18/10/12 Climate change brings exotic viruses to Europe. Special report: Several exotic mosquitoes have been making advances onto European soil and with them they often bring diseases that have been unknown in Europe before their arrival – the latest discovery is named the Usutu virus and was discovered in central Germany At the end of August 2012, during an extensive blood sample test, the Usutu virus was found in one of the blood samples from a donor in Hessen, Germany.
The Usutu virus is relatively new to the European Union as it is mostly found in Africa. It is extremely rare that the Usutu virus has been found in a blood sample of a person, as infection is not common in Europe. These kinds of exotic viruses are more often entering Europe given the effects of climate change, which is making it a more attractive feeding and breeding ground for these mosquitoes. This discovery has been made by virologist Dr Jonas Schmidt-Chanasit from the Bernhard-Nocht-Institut for Tropical Medicine in Hamburg.

En réponse aux enjeux posés dans les pays en développement (PED), le CCI prône la libéralisation des échanges : "déployer des efforts concertés pour libéraliser les échanges dans le cadre de règles contribuerait non seulement à réduire les émissions d'origine agricole, mais améliorerait aussi la sécurité alimentaire en lissant les disparités régionales en matière d'accès à l'alimentation". La question de l'atténuation est traitée sous l'angle des émissions agricoles et du transport des produits, deux secteurs pour lesquels la mise en place de politiques climatiques se heurte à des difficultés importantes.

Organic dynamic cheese - Demeter
Biodynamic cheese is made from biodynamic milk. This means that the milk is processed as little as possible so that the character and quality are maintained. A good cheese needs 'rest'. A biodynamic farmer therefore takes his time to milk the cows so that the animals do not experience stress. The cows are very healthy because they eat fresh grass and herbs straight from the earth. They walk outside as much as possible and are also allowed to keep their horns. They also don't receive any synthetic medication. And because a healthy and happy cow produces better tasting milk, you can taste that again in the cheeses.

Demeter quality mark
Biodynamic cheese creates a true taste explosion in the mouth. It is a regional product that is made with a lot of love and passion. You can recognise these cheeses from the Demeter quality mark. Biodynamic cheeses meet extra stringent requirements. For example, the milk may not be homogenised and only extracts may be added to the cheese, so no aromas that serve as flavouring. Furthermore, no lysozyme may be added to a biodynamic cheese. This is an enzyme that is extracted from chicken protein. Biodynamic cheeses are incredibly tasty and healthy, and at the same time you contribute to a better environment.
Biodynamic agriculture
A biodynamic company works 100% organically and goes a step further than organic farming. The biodynamic farmer works with respect for the natural processes of the environment of his company. There are extra high requirements in terms of animal welfare, closed cycles and ecology. For example, biodynamic farmers strive for a full reproductive cycle of their crops and their animals. It is a very authentic form of agriculture where wild flowers grow, the animals have a name, and everything is grown locally. Soil, plants and animals are optimally cared for, resulting in a pure, healthy and tasty end product.

Evolution is present everywhere in business. New ideas build upon old ideas and the lineage of any one invention can trace its roots through many products and practices. So too, the process historian is a tool that was invented as an improvement to do a better job than the previous tools. Today, computer savvy professionals in manufacturing management may not understand the basic functionality of a process historian. I invite you to read through this article to learn the background of the process historian and to remove some of the mystery and sales jargon that keep many professionals today from even understanding what they are buying.
Turn back the clock to 1982: No computers, no internet, you have a secretary that types memos and letters. After a two year project and a long startup, you are walking around your state-of-the-art powerhouse control room singing "Physical" by Olivia-Newton John to yourself. You survey the control room and see that the old bench board of pneumatic controllers is now replaced with a row of computer consoles like NASA's mission control. Operators can see graphic representations of the process and control the boiler from the computer. The electronic controls are making the process run better than ever and real-time information is available in the office or maintenance shop – for about $100,000.00 for a console. But now you look beyond the consoles to see the old panel board of ink and paper chart recorders. Dang, you wish you could have replaced that mess but there is just not enough money in the company to replace our historical records with electronic records.
Fast forward to 1992: You have a 486 computer wedged under your desk, a 15 inch monitor and keyboard on your desk – and a sore neck every evening. You walk through the control room singing "I'm Too Sexy" by Right Said Fred to yourself and see that all of the ink charts are gone – replaced by a process historian. The operators have two new computers specifically to show trends that replace the ink and paper charts. The new process historian uses a proprietary controller interface and a sophisticated delta-slope storage algorithm to store the least amount of data on the server's huge 500 MB hard drive. The historian proprietary trend tools will allow your people to call up the process variable and time in trend displays. The system is slick – not only does it allow you to replace the ink and paper recorders but you can see the real-time or historical trends on your 486 computer in the office!
Present: You have never had a secretary. You have a smoking laptop with a 120 GB HD connected to your docking port in your cubical where you spend too much time on FaceBook and reading Aston Kutcher's latest tweets. You are walking to the conference room meeting concerning a new system for performance management and for some reason you can't get the music video "Young Forever" by Jay-Z and Mr. Hudson out of your mind this morning. The company coming in to talk about a solution today has a solution called "Management System" or "SuperBad Platform" or something. You have some concerns but you know that IEEE has created standards for getting real-time data from any controller or historical data from any process historian.
Many companies need a good process historian and excellent trending and reporting tools to enable operators and engineers to improve the process performance. Companies with hybrid processes (some process control and discrete manufacturing) also need trending and lots of process data. But the process historian is still today a tool of recording a Process Variable and time and storing that data long-term for retrieval. Its fame is the speed of storage and compression but the process historian is for most purposes and facilities a commodity decision. The technical aspects are rate of storage and rate of retrieval. This is still an engineering decision to determine the rate of storage of data from the process needed for the application. IEEE standards like OPC-HDA and OPC-UA assure users that hundreds of independent software companies the world over will continue to write user tools and software packages for use with any historian.
In closing – it is important to state that the process historian will always be an important tool. But, the process historian may not be the best foundation for process improvement in industry. The historian was the electronic replacement for a strip chart recorder – it is a data source that needs an intelligence solution on top of it to analyze the data in order to make a decision. Process Intelligence systems – whether software or an operator – are independent of a process historian.
The process historian is a good tool – but if you need OEE, performance metrics, inventory control, genealogy or reporting – you will only use the historian as a source of data.

Dear Anthony,
Kathy, Joey and All involved with your inspiring Wheels 2 Water event
again this year at Ditch Plains in Montauk,
I am so proud and grateful for all you do—not only for paralyzed surfers but for
everyone who gets to know you. You make us want to be BETTER PEOPLE! Thank you.
With so much appreciation and admiration,
Mariann Coleman
Dear Kathy and Anthony,
Just wanted you to know that we have paid your kindness forward. Bill Porter just
picked up
Joey's Van. It needs a little work to ready it for him to drive it, but we are
happy to be able to give
him the independence. We appreciate your help, the new van from the Zelenskis is
working out
great for Dustin, we are able to transport him in his power chair. So many
wonderful people have
come into our lives to help Dustin, we want you to know how special you are. It
gave Dustin a
great feeling to pass on the van and know that he was helping someone else.
Warm regards,
Anthony and Kathy,
A delayed but sincere thank you for our "Surf Day" in Montauk. Truly amazing what you
organize to enable an SCI person to feel something "normal". So impressive, so heartfelt. T
and I have had such pleasure re-telling his surfing experience.
Most common response….."unbelievable".
Again, we thank you,
T and Maria
Dear Kathy and Anthony,
Well, thanks to you, Patrick has new wheels! The van he had his eye
on is being outfitted for him and should be ready to roll next week.
This is just a quick update…..more to follow.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!
Thank you very much for meeting with us today. I appreciate all that you are doing and am
thankful for the knowledge and experience that you lend to it all. I feel confident that we will
a successful fund raiser. And I am also grateful that my friend Helene and her family now
have a network she can reach out to.
Talk soon,
Hi Anthony / Kathy,
Sometimes its hard for me to believe Ive been injured over 17 years, the time really flies. I was
never really much of an athlete before my injury I was more into my motorcycle and hot rods, I
was also a musician and big fisherman both commercial and recreational. Much like joey when
I was in my late 20's I was way aggressive and driven for independence. I drove a car and then
later up till recently drove a pick up truck. Well you guys already know my story but Joey
reminds me of me 15 years ago. I didn't get into any of the sports my dream has always been to
build a trike and go for a ride and that will happen one day. In the meantime i would have
never thought i would ever even be slightly interested in playing rugby but like other things
you guys have inspired me to keep going. A few years ago It felt like i had the rug pulled right
out from under me. after like 12-13 years of working my ass off. anyway last year i was battling
heavily with some depression like most of my peers but ever since i met you guys you've done
a lot to turn that all around for me. I'm driven more than ever to make Lucky Laces a money
making operation, We could do a lot with the money we raise. There is a lot going on right now
and it all started with meeting you guys. just wanted to say thanks. Have a Happy Thanksgiving
and hopefully I'll see you guys next week at rugby.
Dear Anthony / Kathy,
Just an update on Len Llewellyns condition. As you
may remember from our conversation, Len broke #4,5,6, In the pool accident.
He was unable to move his arms etc. On October 23, 2010 a fund raiser was
held for Len In the Village of Malverne. You may recall Len was a
captain in The Lynbrook Fire Department as well as a Nassau County
Sheriff. A gala was run by his brothers and sisters. "Shamrocks Of Hope" was born.
Numerous Pipe and Drum bands from uniformed services
in NYC, Nassau county and Suffolk where in attendance. The event was
a Huge success. Subsequently additional other fund raisers where held
in Nassau and Suffolk County in Lens name. The next event will be March
19, 2011 At Rescue Hook and Ladder Co. Lynbrook Fire Department
189 Earle Ave Lyn brook. This will co inside with the Rockville Center
St. Patrick's Day parade celebration and all are welcome.
Len now has full use of his upper body arms hands etc.
and feelings are returning to his lower extremities in his toes
calf's buttocks. He is able to move the toes on his left foot and
can feel heat on his right. He can stand up with support. On March 1st
he will begin out patient therapy. It has been 6 months since his
accident. I want to thank you for your counseling given to us at the
beginning of this long arduous journey. We hope your son is doing well
and pray for him in addition for he full recovery of our son Len jr.
Best Wish's,
Len Llewellyn Sr.
Dear Anthony,Kathy,
I just wanted to post my testimonial for your wonderful organization that has helped me and my
mom since my accident in 2004..Being a high level quad and vent dependent I have many ups
and downs emotionally but knowing that I have you and my family with your foundation..helps
me everyday in having the courage to continue on in life!! Words cannot explain my
sentiments!!You are a true blessing…
Kim Haeg
Dear Anthony,Kathy, and Joey,
You are such an inspiration to everyone
in the Wantagh Community. I have enjoyed through the years being a
sponsor for the 5k race but never in my wildest dreams would I ever think that I
would run and participate. Anthony has been a cheerleader everyday to me at World
Gym running my 5 miles on the treadmill. I am looking forward to next years
race sponsoring and of course running again. May God bless you fine people.
I love you with all my heart and soul.
Paul Rosen
Dear Anthony/Kathy,
Thank you so much for your time this weekend. You definitely eased my mind quite a bit and
helped me and John's family sort things out. I also want to thank you for helping us get in
touch with
Bayada Nurses and for doing it so promptly. They are so friendly and helpful and we are just
keeping our fingers crossed at this point to see if his medical insurance will cover this.
Also, your upcoming Casino Night looks fantastic!!!! We are trying to attend but due to the
uncertainty of John's release from Rusk it is making it difficult to make plans in advance.
We will be in touch with you again soon. Any other info would be greatly appreciated.
Dear Mr. Testaerde,
I am Levon Airasian's wife Penny. My husband speaks very highly of you he
enjoys talking with you.
I just wanted to thank you so much for your help with the wheelchair for Levon
it will make things easier for him.
We have so many problems now with medicaid and everything
I thank you for making Levon smile.
May God bless you and keep you and your family well. I hope some day we can meet you in
person, it would be a pleasure.
All the best
There are no words that I could write that would capture my feelings of gratitude for the
opportunity you and your 'team' afforded me yesterday. Simply put, I had an EPIC time. From
the vision you and Joe had to organize surfing for 'us', to the courtesy of the City of Long
Beach, to the numerous volunteers, to your fund raising efforts and your donors generosity, I
Gratefully yours,
Dear Anthony and Kathy,
Just wanted to thank you, for being angels in our lives. We so appreciate all your guidance
that you have given us and the support on behalf of our son Jay. Thank you again
Erin and Jim Burke
Dear Anthony,

The South African Police Service and the Premier Soccer League are in Parliament today to update the Sport and Police Portfolio Committees on the investigation into crowd violence at Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.
In April, fans invaded the pitch, destroyed property and attacked security guards after Kaizer Chiefs lost to Free State Stars. A total of six men have been arrested since the incident, while police are still searching for more perpetrators.
Committee members are grilling Police representatives as to why the match between Kaizer Chiefs and Free State Stars was treated as a medium risk threat, despite being notified that a pitch invasion was a possibility before the match.

One Dream. One Family.
By: Karen Behfar
Not onlycan landscaping help increase the value of your home, but it is also the first thing potential buyers see when they approach your home for viewing. This important step in the selling process is one that is often undervalued and underdone. Below are
4 landscaping suggestionsthat can help sell
your home.
Spruce up your colors– Playing with color is a fun way to add some sophistication to an otherwise drab house. This is an inexpensive way to make your place stand out to potential buyers. Painting a door or banister makes a HUGE difference.
Touch up the gardens– Shaping up overgrown trees, trimming hedges, and tidying up plants are things that should be done year-round, but especially before you are looking to sell. Maintaining your garden is a quick way to show that you have been taking care of your home (especially in Brooklyn where people take their 2x2 gardens seriously).
Pressure wash– Power washers can be bought or rented to clean grime off of stained pavement. Even the grungiest of driveways stand no chance against extreme water pressure. It is an easy way to make your home really shine and attract buyers.
Deck out your patio– If you are selling in warmer months, patios play a huge role. If there is room, make sure you show off all the space forchairs, tables, and pull out the old grill if you can.
Real Estate Market Updates
We live in an evolving world. The brand-new phone I got in November is already "old."The real estate market is constantly changing and moving along its cycle. Homes that were worth in the 5's just five years ago are now priced in the 9's. The market that I see hitting the most is the market of homes around
1 million and under whose market has gone down. Starter homes are the ones being affected the most in terms of price, and those buyers are seeing a relief of prices. That is until now. Obviously, it is all about supply and demand. Certain neighborhoods aren't affected yet. I have found that the homes in the 1M and under price range were most affected first, but that during the past few weeks the 1-2 M priced homes have been affected as well. Pricing homes very well is the key. There used to be more cushion room price-wise, and sellers were able to ask more than the value of their home.
Planning to Retire?
There are several steps you can take before you reach retirement age in order to best prepare yourself for a potential relocation. By deciding whether you would be moving as a lifestyle choice or to downsize and gain some extra finances, you can narrow down your search tremendously.
In addition to finding an agency that will help you with the logistics along the way, taking steps to nail down your housing needs will make the relaxation of retirement even better. If you have owned your home for a long time, you may have seen the value rise significantly over the years. Selling your home in favor of something more affordable or in a less expensive location can put some money in your pocket.
You should ideally be looking to relocate into a home that costs 25% less than your current home will sell for. The options are limitless, but it all comes down to your unique taste and individual needs. Many sellers are opting for a rental rather than having to maintain a home, especially if they frequent Florida or New Jersey.

Omniscient Safety Innovations services support organisations by providing the tools and strategies to enable preventative measures, interventions and improvements which help to reduce business costs, prevent accidents, lower lost workdays, increase productivity and morale through effective health, safety and mental health management. We are based in Aberdeenshire, however our services can be provided across the UK.
As you may be aware the growing concern with regard to mental health is extremely high, both within the workplace and on a personal level.
Evidence suggests that 12.7% of absence can be contributed to mental health conditions. In 2017/18 the Health and Safety Executive released their annual stats showing 15.4 million lost work days through work related mental health. On average for each person suffering took 19.8 days off.
By not addressing mental health, companies are suffering detrimental losses with mental health issues costing employers around 35 billion every year. According to the Centre for Mental Health 21.2bn is in reduced productivity, 10.6bn in sickness absence and 3.1 in staff turnover. However, it is impossible to determine the exact statistics as many mental health issues go unreported.
The Health and Safety Executive also estimate that 20% of all accidents occur due to some form of mental health issue, such as stress, anxiety or mental fatigue. The impacts of these can be significant on health, reputation and financial cost.
With this in mind OSI are very happy to announce we are now able to offer Mental Health strategies these include but are not limited to, workshops, seminars, presentations, cognitive behavioural therapy, wellbeing sessions and techniques, accredited First Aid for Mental Health courses and assessment toolkits. Our Mental Health Strategies can significantly reduce costs, lost work rates, improve productivity and morale.
If you would like to discuss implementation of a bespoke strategy for your workplace then simply talk to our experts who can build a strategy to meet your requirements.
Our First Aid for Mental Health training packages, seminars, workshops and presentations are currently being instructed by our very own BCAc recipient and award-winning health & safety representative, who has a passion for not only teaching and presenting but also in the mental health area.
The First Aid for Mental Health course can be instructed as a standalone element or as part of our complete strategies.

Metro workers in Bucharest have won a new collective agreement ending a five-month-long dispute. The workers represented by the Uniunea Sindicatelor Libere Metrou (USLM) union suspended strike action planned for 18 March after managers of the state-owned company Metrorex and the union signed a new collective agreement. The settlement includes a reasonable wage increase, a commitment to retain all jobs, the harmonisation of benefits for certain categories of employees and a pledge to improve working conditions. The existing agreement had expired on 1 November 2009; negotiations on new agreements normally take place 30 days before expiry. USLM organised a protest on 29 October calling on government to approve Metrorex's budget for 2009-10; its failure to do so blocked negotiations. It also took a number of other steps to resolve the matter, including a picket in front of the Romanian government headquarters as well as strikes on 12 and 17 November, which the government suppressed through legal action.

Winemaker's Note's
Our 2013 Reserve Sauvignon Blanc was grown in two of our estate vineyards. Osoyoos, the region's most southern area, is comprised of arid benchlands that benefit from the lake's effect providing the region with more than 200 frost-free days. This warm climate allows the grapes to completely ripen for full flavour. Black Sage Bench is a diverse vineyard with more than 60 different individual blocks affording us an amazing array of premium quality fruit.
Vintage Report
Vintage 2013 was a season of change – early to start, late to finish, and with exceptional flavour potential. A warmer than normal spring brought early budbreak followed by an extremely rainy June that slowed vine growth. Balance was restored with above average temperatures in July and August allowing grapes to mature along a normal ripening curve. The warmest vintage since 2003 cooled off just in time for harvest. In September, heavy rainfall caused significant delays in the grape harvest resulting in our longest picking season ever. Overall, fruit quality was superb for both red and white varietals and the wines are showing excellent balance and character.
Tasting Notes
Crisp and fresh on the palate with lemon drop, lemongrass and lime zest flavours that are bright and aromatic. The palate is edgy and refreshing, showing plenty of citrus fruit with slight herbaceous notes.
Winemaker's Notes
|100% Sauvignon Blanc
|13.5% Alc. | R.S. 2.3 g/l | T. A. 6.1 g/l | 750 mL
