Healing of the rat Achilles tendon is sensitive to mechanical loading, and the callus strength is reduced by 3/4 after 14 days, if loading is prevented. Exogenous GDFs stimulate tendon healing. This response is influenced by loading: without loading, cartilage and bone formation is initiated. This implies BMP signaling is crucial during tendon healing and influenced by mechanical loading. We therefore asked if mechanical loading influences the gene expression of the BMP signaling system in intact and healing tendons, and how the BMP signaling system changes during healing. The genes were four BMPs (OP-1/BMP-7, GDF-5/CDMP-1/BMP-14, GDF-6/CDMP2/BMP-13, and GDF-7/CDMP-3/BMP-12), two receptors (BMPR1b and BMPR2), and the antagonists follistatin and noggin. The Achilles tendon was transected in rats and left to heal. Half of the rats had one Achilles tendon unloaded by injection of Botox in the calf muscles. Ten tendons were analyzed before transection and for each of four time points. All genes except noggin were expressed at all points, but followed different patterns during healing. Loading strongly decreased the expression of follistatin, which could lead to increased signaling. The BMP system appears involved in tendon maintenance and healing, and may respond to mechanical loading.
Ruptured tendons heal faster if they are exposed to mechanical loading. Loading creates deformation of the extracellular matrix and cells, which give rise to intracellular signalling, increased gene expression and protein synthesis. The effects of loading have been extensively studied in vitro, and in intact tendons in vivo. However, the response to loading in healing tendons is less known.
The general aim of this thesis was to understand more about the response to mechanical loading during tendon healing. The specific aims were to find out how short daily loading episodes could influence tendon healing, and to understand more about genes involved in tendon healing.
The studies were performed using rat models. Unloading of healing tendons resulted in a weaker callus tissue. This could be reversed to some extent by short daily loading episodes. Loading induced more matrix production, making the tendons thicker and stronger, but there was no improvement in the material properties of the matrix. Lengthening is one potential adversity with early loading, during tendon healing in patients. This was also seen with continuous loading in the rat models. However, short loading episodes did not result in any lengthening, not even when loading was applied during the inflammatory phase of healing. It also appeared as loading once daily was enough to make healing tendons stronger, while loading twice daily with 8 hours interval did not give any additional effect. The strongest gene expression response to one loading episode was seen after 3 hours. The gene expression changes persisted 12 hours after the loading episode but had disappeared by 24 hours. Loading appeared to regulate genes involved in inflammation, wound healing and coagulation, angiogenesis, and production of reactive oxygen species. Inflammation-associated genes were regulated both by continuous loading and by one short loading episode. Inflammation is an important part of the healing response, but too much can be harmful. Loading might therefore have a role in fine-tuning the inflammatory response during healing.
In conclusion, these studies show that short daily loading episodes during early tendon healing could potentially be beneficial for rehabilitation. Loading might have a role in regulating the inflammatory response during healing.

The University of Sussex has now moved its investment fund out of fossil fuels after four years of Fossil Free Sussex, the student run campaign, lobbying the university to divest.
Sussex University has moved its money into Liontrust Sustainable Futures Managed Fund – which excludes any organisation involved in Fossil Fuels.
Fossil fuel divestment is the removal of investment assets including stocks, bonds, and investment funds from companies involved in extracting fossil fuels, in an attempt to reduce climate change by tackling its ultimate causes.
Annie Pickering, one of the founders of Fossil Free Sussex and former Union President says: "Divestment means that Sussex University are no longer funding the worst polluters of climate change such as BP and Shell. Instead, Sussex are investing in the real future, of renewable energies for a just transition. The Divestment campaign across the world is winning. A massive congratulations to everyone at Sussex who was involved in the campaign; students, the Students' Union and lecturers."
Fossil Free Sussex were founded in December 2013, and they have been lobbying the university to move their investments out of companies that are involved in fossil fuels since March 2014. They are one of the longest standing campaigns at University of Sussex, and it is entirely run by students.
Lara Bloch, another leader of Fossil Free Sussex said: "After 4 years of students petitioning, awareness raising, protesting and negotiations, Sussex has finally pulled it's money out of the fossil fuel industry! This is a significant step in Sussex starting to live up to its reputation as a progressive university. It goes to show that collective voices are strong and student campaigning has the power to make real change."
Despite moving their money into Liontrust, the University of Sussex have not yet written the explicit exclusion of investments in fossil fuels into university policy. Allan Spencer, Finance Director at the University of Sussex said about Liontrust: "The Sustainable Investments team at Liontrust have demonstrated a thorough approach to positive screening and providing us with the assurances we require. We took great care in appointing Liontrust, as we wanted to make sure that the needs of our community were taken into consideration.
Fossil Free Sussex campaigners said that they welcome this change to Liontrust, especially as the fund is fossil free however they want to see a concrete commitment to not reinvest in Fossil Fuels in the university's investment policy hope to see this changed in the future.

Once considered extinct in Alberta, the swift fox (Vulpes velox) has returned to Alberta, with a "small but stable" population thriving in the grasslands of the Canadian province.
These foxes, not much bigger than house cats, were nowhere to be found in this area south of Medicine Hat in 2010, when the Nature Conservancy purchased it. The new sightings indicate that conservation efforts that started in the 1980s have proven worthwhile.
"This is a species that was once wiped out in Alberta, so the fact that we're starting to see them again is a really great conservation success story," Carys Richards, communication coordinator for Nature Conservancy of Canada, told the Calgary Herald.
Swift fox, slow recovery

The swift fox was once common across the Midwestern U.S. and into Canada, with a historic range stretching across the two countries. Alberta and Texas were the end points.
The foxes faced a number of threats that drove them to either outright extinction or endangered status in certain areas. Favoring short grass and mixed-grass prairies, swift foxes lost habitat due to agricultural, industrial and residential development over the decades, according to the University of Michigan's Animal Diversity Web. Not helping matters were efforts to eradicate wolves and coyotes from their habitats; those predator control programs often swept up swift foxes by mistake. Indeed, by the 1930s, the swift fox was considered completely wiped out in Canada.
The protected status of the swift fox varies between Canada and the U.S., and even among states in the U.S. Within Canada, the swift fox is listed as endangered and as a result cannot be hunted. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service determined that the swift fox warranted being listed as threatened, but the species was never granted the designation due to other species being a higher priority.

As a result, certain states took actions to protect the fox within their respective borders. According to the IUCN, Colorado, Montana, North Dakota and Oklahoma all list swift foxes as furbearers, or animals whose fur is commercially valuable, but the harvesting season for swift foxes is closed all year. Nebraska lists the swift fox as endangered while South Dakota lists the animal as threatened. State wildlife agencies, along with the Alberta Fish and Wildlife Division, formed the Swift Fox Conservation Team in an effort to monitor the species' population across its historic range.
Captive breeding programs helped to reintroduce the swift fox to Canada in 1983, with almost 950 foxes released into Alberta and neighboring Saskatchewan by 1997. Today, the foxes that call the area near Medicine Hat home have a "very small but stable population" of 100 individuals, according to Richards.
"I think the fact that they've decided to move onto this land means we've done a really good job of keeping it as natural as possible and providing amazing habitat," she told the Herald. "This property is a success so now we want to keep expanding on this."
Swift foxes are opportunistic omnivores, eating rabbits, insects and lizards. (Photo: Layne van Rhijn on Facebook)
The Nature Conservancy Canada is keeping the location of the property under wraps so humans won't disturb the foxes.
The return of the swift fox is another success for the conservancy's land protection efforts, which help more than just swift foxes.
"Southern Alberta is home to over 75 percent of Alberta's species at risk and this is because of the decline in our grasslands," Megan Jensen, the conservancy's natural area manager for southeast Alberta, told the Herald. "It's really important to know that our grasslands are important and (swift foxes) are one of the animals that live in our grasslands."

If your looking for an agent who will take care of all your concerns, not make you change a million things in your home, be respectful, honest and trustworthy, Ann is the agent for you. Ann brought us buyers and the whole experience was enjoyable. We would not only recommend Ann to our friends and family, we would definitely call her for any future real estate needs!
First of all, Ann is not only a top-notch realtor, but as a person, she's a kind, caring, and genuine individual. She made sure to respond promptly to every call and message, and she took the time to listen and make any necessary adjustments to meet our unique family needs. We'd highly recommend Ann to anyone looking for a professional and hard-working real estate agent. She's truly the best out there.
I am extremely pleased, that my search for an agent to aid in the sell of my home led me to Ann. From our initial conversation to the closing date of the house, Ann was there to answer any questions or address any concerns I might have had. She even took the time to ask me what form of communication worked best for me. I was well informed and up to date on every aspect concerning the selling process and finally sale of the home. As I currently live hours south of the city of Arlington, she took the time to drive out to the house in Arlington, from her office in Camano Island, to pick up an important document for me. Although the sale of my home was a long process Ann was always focused, positive and kept me at ease.
Ann was recommended to me via another agent. I have not put a house on the market for many years and Ann made the process very easy. She had wonderful ideas about staging, and gave positive feedback as improvements were made. She kept me informed about current listings and sells in my area which helped me to better understand how the markets works. She is very personable and pleasant and I highly recommend her.
Ann Hoppe is Fantastic. Ann represented us for a house we purchased on Camano Island and the transaction was flawless. Her communication skills between us and the seller's agent were first class. She kept us informed with every aspect throughout the whole process, from the offer, inspection, appraisal, up to and even after the closing. She was knowledgeable and professional in every detail. It could not have been any better. Ten stars for Ann Hoppe.
Ann Hoppe has been everything one could ask for in a Real Estate Broker. She is professional yet very personable and understanding. I wanted to find a place and close in a very short time. We had seen a condo on line. She found out all the particulars and com parables, showed us through the unit several times allowing us to take all the time we needed to take measurements and make our decision. Once we made the offer, she negotiated a closure within two weeks! I would highly recommend Ann to anyone looking for a realtor.
Ann has a very low pressure style – good service without being pushy. She has a common-sense approach and is calm and helpful. She monitored the market to help us to establish an accurate market value where we could attract buyers and still capture the best possible sale. The house had a buyers agreement within around 30 days. If you want an agent with integrity and expertise, we recommend Ann.
Ann was very professional and extremely helpful in selling our family's cabin on Camano Island this summer. Ann put in a great deal of her time and effort to get the sale completed. She went above and beyond in helping us arrange some maintenance issues that needed to be addressed. I wish all real agents were as customer focused as Ann.
We heartily recommend Ann and her associate Vic Kepler, they sold our home start to finish in 3 1/2 months and got very near our asking price for it. Initially we were gone from Camano when we signed the listing so Ann and her team cleaned the place up from the winter wear and tear, staged the inside, and generally worked hard to keep the property ready to view. They hosted open houses for other brokers and the public and continued to work the listing until it sold. They were very active all during the process and we appreciate their efforts a great deal. They are presently closing another Camano property that belonged to my brother, he went with Ann and Vic because we told him what a great job they did for us. His property had been listed from January until July with another agency, they moved to Ann and Vic in August and the property sold the same month. If you want to sell, call them!
The property we were trying to sell was a nightmare of issues. Ann went above and beyond to help us sell our property! No problem recommending her and her agency to anyone needing a hard working conscientious agent.

Gardner, Bennet Meet with Colorado County Commissioners
Washington, DC – Yesterday, Senators Cory Gardner (R-CO) and Michael Bennet (D-CO) met with County Commissioners from several Colorado counties. They discussed a variety of issues affecting Colorado, including public lands, Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILT), broadband, and infrastructure.
Attendees included Commissioners from Adams, Alamosa, Arapahoe, Douglas, El Paso, Jefferson, La Plata, Mineral, Montezuma, Morgan, Routt, San Miguel, and Teller counties.
"Senator Bennet and I had a great meeting with Colorado county commissioners about how the federal, state, and local government can continue to work together to advance policies that help Coloradans," said Gardner. "Whether it is protecting our public lands, modernizing our infrastructure, or deploying broadband to rural communities, our working relationship with local officials is vital to finding solutions."
"There's no problem we couldn't solve if lawmakers in Washington took their jobs as seriously as the County Commissioners do in Colorado," said Bennet. "We need to empower local decision-makers, while also making the federal government function better for Coloradans. The topics discussed in our meeting—from broadband to public lands—only confirmed how critical it is for local and federal governments to work together to expand opportunities for Colorado communities and families."

text: September 30, 2010 August Bassin' On The Tenn-Tom The string of pools along this waterway in northeast Mississippi offers a variety of bass fishing options this month. Join the author in exploring them. By Bob Borgwat Photo by Ron SinfeltIf Hernando De Soto had been a bass fisherman, he might have recognized the Tombigbee River of eastern Mississippi as a premier bass fishery. Then he would have stopped to wet a hook, and avoided ending his journey beneath the surface of the Mississippi River. Of course, De Soto and his band of 1,000 soldiers could not have imagined in 1541 how the twisted network of stained streams and oxbows, dotted with cypress trees, stumps and lily pads, would look today. Though much has changed since this fertile labyrinth became the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway in the mid-1980s, its waters still give up lots of largemouth, spotted and, occasionally, smallmouth bass. De Soto crossed the meandering Tombigbee River en route from Florida to his date with destiny near where Lowndes County meets Monroe County and what is now the midpoint of the Tenn-Tom Waterway. Stretching 230 miles southward from Yellow Creek on Pickwick Lake at its north end, the waterway connects the Tennessee River with the Gulf of Mexico. Along the way, 10 navigation pools are backed up by a series of locks and dams. The major pools entirely within Mississippi are Bay Springs Lake, Aberdeen Lake and Columbus Lake. BAY SPRINGS LAKEMidsummer bass fishing at Bay Springs Lake heats up in ways different from what's seen at its sister lakes. Located near Tishomingo, the 6,700-acre reservoir is a clear, deep impoundment that remains cooler than the lakes to its south. As a result, its spotted bass are about as numerous as largemouths, whereas only a smattering of smallmouth bass will be found swimming its waters. Those latter fish may have come downriver naturally, or may have been caught in tournaments on Pickwick and released in this reservoir. "It's a fantastic spotted bass lake," said fishing guide and Strike King pro staff angler Roger Stegall, of Iuka. "While the general public fishes for largemouth bass with typically big baits, there're a lot of spotted bass being taken by anglers who understand that small lures can turn big catches of spots. A lot of 5-pound spots are caught on Bay Springs by anglers who know how to fish for them." Lying in the Magnolia State's Hill Country, Bay Springs Lake floods many old stream bottoms, forming long points and deep coves. Rocky shorelines are abundant, and old roadbeds cross many of the creek bottoms. Submerged hilltops and old pond levees -- such as the Josh Pond Levee south of Crow's Neck -- create underwater humps that concentrate both baitfish and bass in deep water under the summer sun. "The magic depth in summer on these humps seems to be 22 to 30 feet for both largemouths and spotted bass," Stegall said. "For largemouths, I work the deep dropoffs and old roadbeds 25 feet deep with spinnerbaits and 10-inch plastic worms Carolina-rigged. The spots bite best on smaller lures -- drop-shot rigs with 4-inch baits and the so-called french-fry plastic worms, also Carolina-rigged."Stegall favors long leaders on his Carolina rigs because a 5- or 6-foot leader gives your bait a freer action. "You might as well throw a Texas-rigged worm if you think 3 feet is long enough for your leader," he asserted. At the end of that leader is a 6-inch worm that might not draw as many strikes as will a smaller finesse-sized plastic worm, but the strikes you do get are generally larger bass. Deep water is not the only place in which you'll find Bay Springs' bass. Stegall suggests throwing topwater lures -- such as the poppers or stickbaits -- at daylight across humps in water 8 to 10 feet deep. It's in that relatively shallow water that you're likely to see a nice-looking spot or largemouth busting bait after a night of foraging. Shad, fire-tiger and clear-bodied patterns are top choices.Also, secondary points on the creek channels tend to hold a lot of spotted bass, while clay banks muddied up by boat traffic hold both largemouths and spots. "There's not many shad in Bay Springs Lake, so it's got to be crawfish those fish are targeting," Stegall surmised.In both situations, spinnerbaits in white or white-and-chartreuse patterns and crankbaits in bream or crappie patterns are his lure choices.For more information about bass fishing at Bay Springs Lake, contact Roger Stegall at (662) 423-3869 or check out his Web site atwww.fishpickwick.com.Bay Springs Lake features a single marina, located two miles north of the dam on the west side in the back of Mackeys Creek. Six concrete boat ramps with paved parking areas are situated around the impoundment and on the Divide Cut. For information about Bay Springs Lake's boating facilities and public recreation, contact the Bay Springs Resource Management Office and Visitor Center (operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) at (662) 454-3481.ABERDEEN LAKEThe complexion of the Tenn-Tom's bass waters changes dramatically south of Bay Springs. The James Whitten Lock and Dam connects boat traffic to Aberdeen Lake via the 45-mile-long Canal Section of the waterway. This section gets little attention from bass anglers because it shrinks to little more than a navigation channel. But Aberdeen's 4,600 acres get plenty of attention from fishermen who know how to fish the "edges," which, according to local guide and EverStart/BFL pro angler Danny Walden, of Columbus, are the summertime hotspots at Aberdeen. "Aberdeen's summertime bass get on the ledges near deep water. These include the main navigation channel, the old river runs and creeks," he pointed out. The edge of the main channel is the most obvious ledge, running the length of the 10-mile-long navigation pool. Both logjams and bass pile up on the edge of the channel, says Walden. The channel is maintained by the Corps at 9 feet deep, but several areas drop off to about 15 feet deep, and it's from these that many 3- to 5-pound bass are caught.Crankbaits are the summertime lure of choice along these ledges, where the bass fishing is worth your while all day long. "Throw shallow-running crankbaits early, turning to deep-running as the day grows later," Walden said. "When the water's stained and visibility is less than 1 foot, chartreuse and fire-tiger patterns work best. Where clear water is found -- and 'clear' is anything better than 1-foot visibility -- throw shad or bream patterns. Bream patterns are especially good during the bream bedding seasons that take place two or three times through summer."The logjams also hold promise for anglers tossing 4- to 6-inch plastic trick worms, french-fry worms and lizards. Rig these Carolina-style with a 24- to 36-inch leader, Walden suggests, and a 3/4-ounce weight to get them down into the cover. Other "edges" that Aberdeen bass fishermen target are on the old river run and ditches connecting to it. The Corps map of Aberdeen Lake shows a network of sloughs and backwaters formed by the old river channel, which snakes across the navigation channel several times from about a mile upstream from the Aberdeen Lock and Dam all the way upriver to Weaver Creek Cut-off. "The ditches are usually shallow runs, 2 to 4 feet deep, that eventually drop into the creek channels and old river run," Walden noted. "These intersections, as well as where the old river run meets the navigation channel, are great places to throw topwater patterns early in the morning. "I like a black spinnerbait when the water is clear, and a chartreuse-and-white pattern when it's muddy. The stained water usually occurs with a good rainfall. A lot of the lake's tributaries run through plowed-up agricultural lands." Aberdeen's backwaters include sloughs, cutoffs and oxbows, all of them covered up with flooded timber off the main channel. Hyacinths have a presence, but they're swept through the backwaters by the current following the old river run. According to Walden, the grass present there-- chiefly hyacinths, coontail and hydrilla -- is both good and bad for Aberdeen's bass fishing and bass fishermen. "The grass offers cover and protection for small fish, shade from the hot summer sun, and ambush points for big bass," he explained, "but the hyacinths frequently block the areas you want to get your boat into to fish."BOATING THE TENN-TOM WATERWAYThe waters of the Tenn-Tom Waterway provide a safe and calm surface for recreation boaters. On the other hand, this resource has a number of locks and dams that must be negotiated. Modern navigation locks, however, allow pleasure craft to move through quickly and safely. Ten locks are located along its course. Each is 600 feet long and 110 feet wide. There is no charge for using the locks.The navigation channel is maintained at a minimum of 300 feet wide and 9 feet deep. The shallower water outside the navigation channel is usually deep enough for pleasure craft, but caution should be used. Under normal conditions there is a current of less than 1 mile per hour along the Tenn-Tom. The exception to the rule may be encountered in flood-prone early spring months.More information about navigation facilities and locking through the Tenn-Tom Waterway is available online attenntom.sam.usace.army.mil/. You can also receive similar information by calling the Corps of Engineers at (662) 327-2142. When Walden fishes around grass, he frequently chooses topwater skimbaits such as a Scum Frog or Moss Boss for luring largemouths out of the thick cover. Designed to be pulled across the top of hydrilla, lily pads, coontail and other thick vegetation, skimbaits dart and dance on the surface, drawing explosive strikes from bass lurking in the holes and under the mats of vegetation."The best color is white, or colors combined with white, such as red and chartreuse. Get ready for a big strike anytime the lure nears the holes and edges of the grass."Aberdeen Lake has no marinas, but three concrete boat ramps with courtesy docks and paved parking areas are found on the lake. For information about Aberdeen Lake boating facilities and public recreation, contact the Waterway Management Center operated by the Corps of Engineers at (662) 327-2142. For more information about bass fishing at Aberdeen Lake, contact Danny Walden at (662) 328-3386.COLUMBUS LAKEHeavily fished by recreational anglers, pressure on Columbus Lake is heightened by the many bass tournaments staged on the 23-mile long navigation pool. Backed up by the Tom Bevill Lock and Dam, the 8,900-acre reservoir nonetheless boasts a noteworthy bass fishery. However, some anglers fear the fishery is degrading because of the heavy mats of hyacinths that plague the lake and its backwaters. "It's been coming for years," said veteran Columbus bass angler "Rat" Hausey of the onslaught of water hyacinths. He added that the water weed could eventually restrict anglers to the navigation channel if no action is taken to curb or destroy the invasive exotic. Already, many of the old river runs, sloughs, oxbows and cut-offs upstream from the Barton Ferry Access Area to near the Aberdeen Lock and Dam are choked shut in the height of summer. Hausey still might be seen fishing some of those areas, especially along the edge of the heavy vegetation in which Columbus largemouths hide from the summer sun. The bass also ambush forage fish here, often on the upstream end of an oxbow, where the river current keeps the hyacinths at bay. At other times, the target area is right at the navigation channel, where the grass creates an edge along deep water. These are the places in which Hausey tosses shallow- to medium-running crankbaits, Carolina-rigged plastics or a plastic frog.Having fished the lake since it opened in 1982, Hausey has learned a few other ways to snatch Columbus bass, despite the loss of fishing water to the hyacinths. His top bass on Columbus is a largemouth that tipped the scales to 10 1/2 pounds. "That fish came on a jig," he recalled, adding that he frequently flips tube baits today. "Just about anywhere you would throw a jig -- creek channels, stumps, laydowns, flats and the few steep, deep clay banks with timber." The rig he uses is a 4-inch tube on a 1/8-ounce jighead; he opts to go mostly with black-and-neon or green-pumpkin patterns. He also dips the tails of his tubes in garlic-scented chartreuse dye. Speaking to the lake's hotspots, Hausey pointed up the state Route 50 bridge that crosses the waterway near Waverly Marina. "It's a spot that's best for small boats," he noted, "because it's got thousands of stumps. It's great fun for fishing during the week when boat traffic is light." Tippee Creek, which opens into the main pool adjacent to the Waterway Management Center, has also attracted Hausey's notice. Its current is usually strong enough to push back the hyacinths toward the main pool, leaving the upper reaches of the creek bottom open. Though much has changed since this fertile labyrinth became the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway in the mid-1980s, its waters still give up lots of largemouth, spotted and, occasionally, smallmouth bass. "There are some great flats in there, up to 100 yards wide, where I throw buzzbaits -- black skirt and black blade -- especially when a boat or barge is locking through," he said. "The current gets stronger whenever the lock is operated, and the fish seem to feed better, even for just those several minutes when the water is dropped out of the lock. "You can catch good spotted bass, too, at the riprap walls of the locks at either the Aberdeen or Stennis locks. Listen for the horn that signals the lock is operating and get your boat over there. You're on the downstream side of the lock at Aberdeen, so watch out for the increased current. "It's usually bright-colored crank-baits -- chartreuse-and-black, chartreuse-and-blue and shad colors -- that get the best bites. Toss them to the riprap and pull them back toward deep water. There are a lot of good spots caught off that riprap that go 2 or 3 pounds."Columbus Lake features a single marina, located at the Stennis Eastbank and Columbus Recreation Area, just east of the John C. Stennis Lock and Dam. Eight concrete boat ramps with paved parking areas are also situated around the impoundment.For information about Columbus Lake boating facilities and public recreation, contact the Waterway Management Center operated by the Corps of Engineers by calling (662) 327-2142.

BizLogo-Haed-Avatar Inspired
I like my dyslexia on "head" so I left it.
Sketch inspired ( or copied) from Avatar trailer.
And a biz card I picked up at Comicon that was very close to a logo I remember as one of Rick's logos.
2 comments:

I've had a couple of different logo/signatures. I don't really like the one I use now anymore, but I find the whole concept of a signature so pretentious now that I can't motivate myself to come up with a new one. I pretty much only sign stuff if someone asks me (like when I visit my kids' school and do some quick sketches, for example).
Nice stuff! I've been wanting to do a drawing of the squinty guy, but I haven't had a chance as of yet.
- rickart said...
I should probably qualify that statement. I will stand in line for a signature, but it needs to be a really good one, like Ray Harryhausen... and a really short line. When I buy stuff from regular joes at the con they usually need to remind me to get a signature. I'm always happy with it once I get a signature, but I sort of forget about it at the moment of purchase.

Debarment and Sanction Screening
What is Sanction Screening?
With Exclusion Screening's Sanction Screening services, you can feel safe knowing that if any of your employees, vendors, and providers have been sanctioned, you will be one of the first to know. With instant notification and updates you can trust that you truly do know who is working for you and with you.
Why Conduct Sanction Screening?
By hiring a sanctioned individual you are placing yourself at risk in a number of different ways.
- Know who you are hiring. Without a full sanction check on new employees you are running the risk of hiring a fraud.
- By hiring a sanctioned individual, you are at risk! Organizations like the OIG will not stand for organizations hiring sanctioned individuals and will fine up to $21,562.80 for each violation.
- You place yourself at risk of fraud. By hiring a sanctioned individual, you are allowing a someone who has previously been found to have committed some form of fraud to enter your organization and possibly commit the same crimes.
What do we Screen?
There are a number of different organizations that sanction individuals for posing a threat to their program's integrity for either fraud or misconduct. Some of the organizations we screen against are:
- OFAC. By not screening against the OFAC Sanction List, there could be serious consequences such as a transfer of funds, an enforcement action against your organization, and or negative publicity.
- SDN. An individual or entity that has been sanctioned by the SDN has usually had their assets blocked and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from dealing with them. By working with them you are placing yourself at risk of those consequences as well.
- FSE. OFAC publishes a list of foreign individuals and entities determined to have violated, attempted to violate, conspired to violate, or caused a violation of U.S. sanctions on Syria or Iran pursuant to Executive Order 13608. Any transactions done with these individuals or entities is extremely prohibited.
- FDA Debarment List. The FDA Debarment List is a list of individuals and entities that have been found to have a history of criminal conduct, relating to the development or approval of a drug product, that prevents an individual from engaging in similar activities.
- State Sanctions. Many states have their own agencies that hand out their own sanctions that might not make it to a federal database. However, to conduct business in any state it is necessary for you to run the appropriate screens and checks and all states. We can assess the needs of your organization and help you conduct the needed screening.
- Employee Misconduct, Nurse Registries and Others. Almost every state has its own employee misconduct and nurse registries. It is extremely important that you check every state registry before you hire a nurse to ensure that they have not had sanctioned placed against them or their licensure.
- Denied Persons List. We can screen to see if organizations' export privileges have been denied by the Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).
- FDA Disqualified (Clinical Investigators Disqualified List). The FDA has a vast list of Clinical Investigators that have been disqualified for various reasons.
- NIH PHS Administrative Actions Listing. The PHS keeps a record of individuals who have had enforcement actions imposed against them by either ORI or HHS.
- UN Consolidation Sanction List. We can screen to ensure that anyone you are working with has not been the subject of UN sanctions.
Custom Screening
However, because our mission is to help our clients stay compliant and protect themselves against fraudulent employees, we also offer Custom Screening. Whatever the needs of your organization might be we are here to help. We also offer Exclusion Screening for all healthcare organizations to screen their providers and employees.
If you would like to learn more about our Healthcare Exclusion, Debarment and Sanction Screening Services, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or fill out the form below!

New No 1 Kerber eyes revenge against Pliskova in final
NEW YORK – Angelique Kerber, who fulfilled a dream by completing her rise to the rank of world number one in women's tennis, now has a chance to satisfy a more basic urge – revenge – in the US Open final on Saturday.
The 28-year-old German goes for her second grand slam title of the year against 10th-seeded Czech Karolina Pliskova, who hopes to ride her huge service game to a maiden major in the Arthur Ashe Stadium showdown.
Last month, Pliskova denied Kerber from claiming the top rankings spot by beating her in the Cincinnati final, and at the trophy ceremony the tall Czech said, "Maybe next time," as a tepid consolation to the German.
The 'next time' has arrived, with a grand slam crown now at stake.
"I remember the Cincinnati final. I was actually really tired because I came from Rio and I had a lot of tough matches there," Australian Open winner Kerber, who claimed silver at the Rio Olympics, told reporters.
"(Here) I can really prepare for the final against Pliskova. I know how she is playing. I know she has a big serve.
"I think I will go out there trying to get my next chance against her and take the revenge."
Pliskova paved the way for Kerber's ascent, which will become official in Monday's new rankings list, by defeating Serena Williams in the US Open semi-finals to clinch number one for the German.
Kerber has yet to lose a set in Flushing Meadows, but she has not faced the service firepower possessed by Pliskova, who has led the WTA Tour in aces the last two seasons as well as at this last grand slam of the year.
Pliskova, who had never before reached the second week of a slam, had a harder time, completing a Williams 'double' by beating older sister Venus in a third-set tiebreaker in the fourth round.
The lanky, 24-year-old Czech said that with her mounting confidence, and big serve, she can go all the way.
"In Cincinnati, I knew Angie … kind of felt some pressure there," said Pliskova. "I was really going for my win there and got the win, which gave me a lot of confidence.
"If you believe in yourself, you can beat anyone."
Kerber, always a great defensive player, dedicated herself to getting fitter, stronger and more aggressive on the court this year and it paid huge dividends right from the start as she claimed her first slam victory in Melbourne over Serena.
She was also runner-up to Serena at Wimbledon and has led the WTA Tour in match wins this season.
"I think I played an amazing year. It's my third grand slam final now in one year, so I just try to enjoy it," Kerber said.
Kerber, who beat twice Wimbledon winner Petra Kvitova in the fourth round and last year's Open runner-up Roberta Vinci in the quarters before eliminating former world number one Caroline Wozniacki in the semis, is now focusing on a second slam title.
The German had a celebratory swim in Melbourne's Yarrow River after her breakthrough slam but has nothing planned should she add the US Open crown.
"No, I think that was once and that was OK," she said when asked about taking another victory plunge. "Let's see what we will do if I win it here." –Reuters

"I could buy designer but this Fashion Nova fit."
Cardi B is all about Fashion Nova.
In fact, Fashion Nova has become one of the top go to places for online shopping for the past year or two. Millions of people love Fashion Nova for their fabulous sense in fashion, wonderful discounts and it's easy to access.
The fashion is not only edgy, it's inexpensive designer clothes that people, including myself, love to wear.
They have plenty of discounts and I always get at least 20 percent off and any purchase over $75 is free shipping and handling.
Here's a secret… if you download RetailMeNot, Fashion Nova has a page on there filled with discounts.
The online shopping experience is so easy to navigate. When you click collections, a list of different categories pop up, whether it be new arrivals, dresses, pants, shoes, holiday specials, men, etc.,
They even have another selection with the options broken down more like special occasions, distressed jeans, boyfriend pants, crop tops, and so forth.
I highly recommend Fashion Nova because of their overall care and consideration of their customers. I will go online any day over heading to the local mall.

You need to define the employment gap in your resume when you are looking for another job or say when you are giving an interview. It all depends on your reasons why you have an employment gap, and you need to explain it adequately to your prospective employer. Let us see about explaining the employment gap in your resume.
There can be many reasons that a considerable number of individuals take some time off from their work. In a few cases, it is their personal choice to take off, and in some cases, they like to find a new job for themselves.
At The Point When You Need To Mention An Employment Gap
There can be a possibility that the gap in your employment occurs a long time back; in such cases, you don't need to mention it on your resume.
The matter of the fact is that you don't need to include your skills and experience of the long back if you are working for so many years, all you need to add the details of your current working years and the details of related filed where you want to get a job.
It is alright to include the years of your experience as fifteen years when you are looking for some top post in your field and at least ten years when you are working in the same field since those years.
How To Use Dates To Hide the Employment Gaps In Your Resume
You don't need to mention the months or in your resume when you were doing the job in the same field for so many years. For instance, you could specify the dates as; 2013 - 2017, rather than mentioning it as, From June 2013 - March 2017. And in this way, you can always cover the employment gaps in your resume.
When you opt to mention your previous jobs in years, you can quickly cover the gaps, if it took to switch to the next job.
Review The Format Of Your Resume
It will always be a good habit to review your resume before you submit it to the employer. You can always minimize the gaps in your job history.
For instance, don't highlight the dates as well as utilize a little textual style than the one you use for the organization name or occupation title. Begin your resume with a Summary Statement and Career Highlights segment, so you are featuring your abilities and achievements, as opposed to what you were doing during the recent years.
You Can Always Omit Irrelevant Job(s) From Your Resume
You don't have to incorporate all your experience on your resume, particularly on the off chance that you have been on the job for quite a long time.
It's worthy of restricting the years of experience you incorporate on your resume to fifteen years when looking for an administrative or professional position and ten years when searching for a specialized or technical kind of job.
Include Other Experience Gained During The Gap
Most of the interviewers always ask the applicants how they spend their time or what they did during the employment gaps. As they would like to know some details about your personality, they always wonder have you done any freelance or part-time job during that gap period.
Anything which you have done during employment gaps, which added some knowledge or skills, will be counted as work, and you can always mention those things in your resume. You can always list those tasks in your resume in a similar way you mention your work experience.
Don't Hide The Truth
What's most essential is to come clean. In case you lie on your resume, it will likely cause issues down the road for you. Managers confirm work history, and on the off chance that you put erroneous data on your resume, managers or employers can easily find it out.
Use Cover Letter As A Tool To Describe The Employment Gap
There can be the possibility that the employment gap that occurred in your career does not fit in your resume. As may be, you took off to take care of your elderly parents; or maybe any other similar issues.
In such situations, you can utilize your cover letter to clarify the employment gap. In any case, you don't have to make it a big issue while mentioning it in your cover letter.
Clarifying An Employment Gap During A Job Interview
Sometimes you can land into a tricky situation when you start to explain the employment gap while interviewing.
The best approach is ordinarily to address the issue easily and straightforwardly. Give a reasonable method of reasoning to requiring significant investment off if the break was willful.
On the off chance that you needed significant time off to manage a particular issue like looking after a debilitated relative or finishing coursework and are prepared to come back to full-time employment, explain it clearly that you have resolved the issue during the time you took off.
If workforce withdrawal is the reason for your laid-off, it is essential to give any confirmation of solid execution as you clarify the conditions encompassing the scaling down. At whatever point, conceivably secure proposals from bosses, associates, and clients were affirming your fitness. Incorporate these with your LinkedIn profile when achievable.
It will be harder to present a solid defense in the event if you were terminated because of your performance or you were underperforming.
And now, if you are looking for another job that needs a different set of skills and expertise, you can always emphasize your strengths and skills required for the job. In case you have taken steps to correct the things which led to your termination, you can still explain this to the interviewer or employer.
You ought to, for the most part, keep away from any negative portrayal of your previous employer since many prospective bosses and employers would like to take the side of the employer. A proactive approach confirming your skill, and any concrete proposals from past occupations can be useful.
Focus On The Positive
Ensure that you focus any productive tasks during the period of your employment gap, for example, charitable effort, workshops or coursework, counseling, or freelance work. At long last, radiate eagerness for coming back to work and make an extremely solid case for why your objective occupation would be energizing for you and a great fit.

Many hotels include meditation as a part of their health and wellness programs, but a few of those hotels have started to introduce meditation programs for children as well.
For example, the Resort at Squaw Creek in California offers a Kids Chillax Spa where kids can learn some stretching techniques, do some deep breathing exercises, and even get aromatherapy treatments.
The Jumby Bay resort in Antigua regularly offers free meditation classes for children at its Fitness Pavilion, which are specifically targeted at kids who've been out all day having fun in the sun.
At the many Great Wolf Lodge locations, they offer a "Yoga Tails" program which teaches kids some basic yoga poses.
The Fairmont Miramar and Hotel in Santa Monica now offer "chill" yoga and meditation classes for the guests who are children as well.
These options offer a way for kids to find some peace while they're on vacation and hopefully retain some of what they learned when they head home as well.

Too often I see rooms filled with clutter, which is understandable when five to ten people are in one room trying to get ready and dressed. Try having a small designated space or closet where everyone can stash their bags and clothes to minimize unsightly and distracting elements in the background of your photos.
It's also good to pick a space with lots of good natural light. Photographers love being able to work without mixed light sources (window light plus incandescent). Having a lot of good soft window light is much more flattering than yellowish artificial light. Getting your makeup done in front of a large bright window is ideal for great getting ready images.
Plan Enough Time Before the Ceremony
Far too often does hair and makeup go late and throws a wrench into the rest of the wedding schedule. Allow more time than you think is necessary before the wedding to ensure you have time to get the photos you want. Before the ceremony is the perfect time to get images of the bridal party and groomsmen as well as a few bridal portraits if you did not schedule a bridal portrait session. Allow 20-30 minutes for the bridal party as well as 20-30 minutes for the groomsmen.
Consider a First Look for Winter Weddings
For weddings starting around October through March, there often isn't enough daylight after the ceremony to take advantage of the natural light for great portraits. These bride and groom portraits are often the highlight of your photos and the ones you will likely have printed in your house for years to come. In the winter, the sun sets around 5:30pm, meaning any ceremony that doesn't end before 4:30 or 5pm will likely mean having all of your portraits being taken in the dark or with artificial light. Plan on having at least 30 minutes before your ceremony for a first look where you are able to get bride and groom portraits taken in the good natural light. This is also a great time to photograph family pictures!
Family Portraits
This is another part of the day that can slow down the wedding schedule after the ceremony and before the reception when everyone is ready to eat, drink, and have fun. Try keeping your list of family formal photos to as much of a minimum as possible and focus on your immediate families, any other extended family group photos can be taken during the reception.
Also designate a family member to assist in gathering family for each group shot that you want, someone that is able to identify each person and be able to have each person ready when it's time for their group's photo. Have a printed list of groups ready to go and plan on each group on taking at least 2-3 minutes, keep the list to no more than 10 groups if possible to keep the rest of your wedding day on time.
Plan Your Portraits for Golden Hour
This goes a long way into getting the most out of your wedding images and gives photographers the greatest flexibility on good locations. The 30-or-so minutes before the sun sets is prime time for portraits to be taken outside, make sure you set this time aside on your wedding day!
Take a Few Minutes for Nighttime Portraits
Take 15 minutes or so to get away during the reception for some alone time and get some creative portraits taken at night. This is a great time to get a shot in front of your lit up wedding venue or even under the stars!

First, Gus Van Horn regrets agreeing with Robert Tracinski and voting Republican. He is dismayed by Republican support for various statist schemes. He thinks it is better to have Democrats in charge because (to put it in my words) they don't pretend to be friends of capitalism and the free market and people would see more clearly that we are heading away from freedom.
Well, I'm not surprised that the Republicans are no friends of freedom. I still don't see how they're worse than the Democrats. We're heading downhill either way. The most important question to ask is: Which way do I vote to buy us the most time for Objectivism to spread through the culture? The far left elements and the whiff of totalitarianism in the Democrats frighten me. However, I will admit that the Republicans are deteriorating so quickly that the difference between the two parties is almost a moot point.
Second, Jack Wakeland fantasized on the Forum for Ayn Rand Fans about shooting a regulator. Diana Hsieh is horrified and Nicholas Provenzo wants Wakeland to rescind his remarks or stop referring to himself an Objectivist.
My eyebrows rose when I first read Wakeland's fantasy. I take it as over-the-top bravado like you hear from young libertarians. Vigilantism is wrong, especially when we still have freedom of speech and the peaceful recourse to change the law. I am most bothered by this sentence:
Killing a regulator who does not answer to the will of the people is justice.
"The will of the people" is some high-flying rhetoric, but what does it mean? Regulation is bad because it violates individual rights, not because it is undemocratic.
I file his statement away and watch carefully for a more explicit, well considered statement.
Third, Harry Binswanger on HBList and Edward Cline have criticized Robert Tracinski for misunderstanding how ideas move history in an essay called "What Went Right." I want to read Tracinski's essay before I judge. This is certainly something to watch.
UPDATE: Slight revision.
UPDATE: Wakeland retracts. Also here.

When you think Tennessee Titans and dual threat, quarterback Marcus Mariota immediately comes to mind…
Until now.
Tennessee drafted cornerback Adoree' Jackson, a talented and versatile athlete, with the 18th overall pick in this year's draft. The USC product just finished his first training camp as a professional, and by all accounts it seems apparent that Mariota now has company.
In his three years as a Trojan, Jackson proved to be not only one of the best cornerbacks in the country, but he was also a dangerous and electrifying return man on special teams.
Last season teams usually made the wise decision of throwing away from Jackson, but when they did test his side of the field he often made them pay with 5 interceptions and 11 pass breakups. Jackson also chipped in 55 total tackles, making him a complete weapon for USC's defense.
Desperate for an upgrade at both positions, the Titans selected Jackson with the intention of killing two birds with one stone, and so far the stone is hitting its mark.
Of all of the new additions to the team, Jackson's training camp performance has been one of the best. He has consistently shown a knack of being in the right place at the right time, and has wowed his teammates and coaches with his blazing recovery speed and ability to locate the ball in the air.
Jackson forced the first turnover of training camp when he stripped the ball away from receiver Tre McBride, but that is nothing new. He also forced at least one fumble in each of his three years in college.
Jackson also picked off several balls throughout camp, and earned the accolades of several Carolina Panthers players after two days of joint practices this week.
While holding his own in such a short time on defense, the rookie has proven to be no one-trick-pony.
Some of Jackson's most electrifying plays has come as a returner in training camp. On back to back nights he garnered oohs and ahs from thousands of onlookers while returning kicks and punts, something the Titans are in desperate need of this season.
Like his ball hawking skills as a corner, this too should come as no surprise.
While at USC Jackson returned 8 kicks for touchdowns, 4 on kick returns and another 4 on punt returns. He also averaged over 27 yards per kick return in his collegiate career.
Head coach Mike Mularkey said that Jackson, who was also a highlight reel waiting to happen on offense at USC, will be eased onto that side of the ball once he has a firm grasp of his defensive duties. And if training camp is any indication, then he will flourish there too.
In limited time on offense, Jackson still managed to haul in 39 receptions for 6 touchdowns (16.1 yards per reception) while at USC, so if and when the Titans decide to put him on that side of the ball you can expect fireworks.
Mariota's dual-threat versatility helped springboard Tennessee's offense from one of the worst prior to his arrival to one of the most feared heading into this season.
If Jackson can do the same for the secondary and return game then the Titans are well on their way to a division title in 2017.

With Python 3.3, a set of my patches were accepted to enhance the crypt library and make strong password hashing easy. Just call "crypt.crypt()" with the password and the result will be a salted hash. You can then use that salted hash with "crypt.crypt()" to check the password again in the future:
>>> import crypt
>>> salted_hash = crypt.crypt('foo')
>>> len(salted_hash)
>>> crypt.crypt('foo', salted_hash) == salted_hash
>>> crypt.crypt('bar', salted_hash) == salted_hash

Like many cities around the world, Toronto faces both opportunities and challenges associated with its population growth. More people in the city contribute to the vibrant mix of skills, cultures, creativity and economic opportunity Toronto enjoys. But we face important challenges too—around climate change, economic inequality, affordability and mobility.Since Waterfront Toronto was created in 2001, we've delivered more than four dozen capital projects on the lands along the lake—transforming almost 100 hectares of underutilized space into active urban places.Our projects are diverse yet they are all powered by the same things: our expertise in city-building, our focus on innovation and job creation and our unwavering commitment to the public good.
Looking at Quayside we saw an opportunity to advance our ambitious sustainability and innovation mandates and to create a community that could transform how we approach urban development. Throughout 2016, we engaged in deep research, aided by our consultants including KPMG and ARUP Canada, to test our thinking and better understand the current state of mind in the marketplace. This research included market sounding interviews with more than 50 companies and institutions. You can read more about our research in this blog.
Quayside provides an opportunity to pilot new solutions for addressing common urban challenges both at Quayside and in other parts of the city. In March 2017, Waterfront Toronto launched an international Request for Proposal seeking an Innovation and Funding Partner for the Quayside Development Opportunity.
There were four main objectives in the RFP:
1. Sustainability, Resiliency and Urban Innovation
Creating a globally significant demonstration project for climate-positive urban development.
2. Complete Communities
Establishing a complete community that emphasizes quality of place, and provides a range of housing types for families of all sizes and income levels within a robust mix of uses, including public open space, culture, recreation, vibrant retail, education-related activities and offices.
3. Economic Development and Prosperity
Providing a testbed for Canada's cleantech, building materials and broader innovation sectors to support their growth and competitiveness in global markets.
4. Partnership and Investment
Developing a new partnership model that ensures a solid financial foundation, manages financial risk and secures revenue that funds future phases of waterfront revitalization.

218 Champaubert (10 February 1814)
Champaubert - 10 February 1814
Historical Background
Napoleon's 30,000 men were tired and hungry after their defeat at La Rothiere, but Blucher believing the French force to be spent, did not make any attempt to unite his army. On February 10th, Napoleon turned and moved on Olsufiev's 5,000 isolated Russians. Lacking cavalry, Olsufiev decided to stand and fight instead of trying to run and rejoin the main army. It was a fatal decision.
Marmont's French infantry slowly advanced forward, while the cavalry sent the Russians into squares that were pounded by the French artillery. After suffering heavy losses, Olsufiev and many of his survivors were taken prisoner. Only a few Russians made good their escape.
The stage is set. The battle lines are drawn and you are in command. Can you change history?
Set-Up Order
Battle Notes
Russian Army
• Commander: Olsufiev
• 4 Command Cards
• 3 Tactician Cards
French Army
• Commander: Marmont
• 5 Command Cards
• 4 Tactician Cards
• Move First
5 Banners
Special Rules
• French line infantry are conscripts and do not receive one additional die in melee when attacking an enemy infantry unit.
• No Pre-Battle Mother Russia Roll.
Tags: Expansion 2, Expansion 5, Army: French, Army: Russian, Special Rule: Conscript Infantry
Allowing a Mother Russia roll probably isn't enough, but maybe some fieldworks would be some help.
Not sure what you are saying about the guns and Victory banners.
Therefore is wished for the simple C&C games, more balanced and less historical Setups
In most unbalanced scenarios it would be help much, if you change only little things.
1 command card more/less and/or changing the starting player, would already help.
In the Champaubert scenario, a "Exit Victory Banner" would be also an alternate
