Annual Events
Amelia Earhart Month
January is Amelia Earhart month, and Zonta Club of St. Louis honors her annually either at a Luncheon or at our annual Trivia Night (see below). "Intelligent, single-minded, highly capable, a champion of women's rights, and a pacifist, as good as any man and courageous to the point of daring, she was perhaps the most widely known woman America ever produced. Certainly she was the most noted woman flier in the world. Long after her death in 1937 on the last leg of an around-the-world flight she undertook just before her 40th birthday, mystery still haunted her memory. She was Amelia Earhart, a Zontian who was famous in life and perhaps even more so in death." --William J. Feustel, former managing editor, St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Trivia Night
Trivia Night, for the benefit of the "Women's Another Chance" program, will be held on January 24, 2015 at the Crestwood, Community Center at White Cliff Park in Crestwood, MO. The master of ceremonies is Kevin Carbery, a newspaper columnist and Trivia aficionado. Doors open at 6:30 pm and games begin promptly at 7:00 pm. Beer and soda are provided along with light snacks. Participants may bring favorite snacks. There are prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places plus attendance prizes, 50/50 drawing, mulligans, heads or tails, and a raffle. See the Zest newsletter and Special Events page for details.
Yellow Rose Award
The Zonta Yellow Rose Award was established in 2001 in honor of the 75th anniversary of the Zonta Club of St. Louis. This annual recognition increases community awareness, understanding and appreciation of women and celebrates their diverse contributions to society. The award is named for the official flower of Zonta International - the yellow rose - a universal symbol of friendship. The annual Yellow Rose Awards are presented to women from the St. Louis area that through their careers or by volunteer service, have made significant contribution to advance the status of women and improve life in the St. Louis Area.
Past Honorees include Deborah Hollingsworth, Executive Vice President, AT & T-Missouri; Gayathri Raman, MD, Women's Health Expert featured on Fox News in St. Loui; Pat Rowe Kerr, Missouri State Veteran's Ombudsman/Director, OperationOutreach; Teresa Willis, Director/Founder Missouri Women in Trades (MOWIT); Melissa Rey, Winner of 3M Discovery Channel 2008 Young Scientist Challenge; and Debbie Monterrey, Co-Host, "Total Information AM", KMOX Radio.
Proceeds from this event fund our Scholarships and Awards.

When the sun sets on December 21st (probably sometime right after lunch), it'll officially be the longest night of the year... and the Best Night of Your Life. Why? Because you'll be spending it enjoying the best nightlife the city has to offer thanks to our awesome recommendations, which naturally include the city's best clubs.
Check out the picks below, and make sure to map out the perfect evening with our itinerary builder.
SE Morrison
It just turned 10 and is still hosting some of the city's best recurring parties (we're lookin' at you FRESH and I've Got a Hole in my Soul), plus it's got daily happy hours if you get there early, and a boozy slushie machine if you wanna keep dancing 'til late, at which point it's probably time to hit Sassy's across the street anyway...
Harlem PDX
Old Town
Exposed brick, old-school turntables, and KOi Fusion being served through a window onto a section of Ash that's been closed-off, covered in Christmas lights and littered with picnic tables. This Downtown spot just screams Portland, and, "hey, you might not have to cross the Willamette to have a good night after all"!
Spin Room at Dirty
Sure, you'd prefer to avoid the usual stereotypical "clubs", but just look at this place: everything lights up! The floor, the walls, the bar... your face when you realize that if it doesn't light up, it has a mirror on it just to make you think it's lighting up!
Jimmy Mak's
The Pearl
FIne, you can't really dance here. Or talk. But you can score some pretty damn good food, and passionately snap your fingers in time with the seriously next-level musicians consistently brought in by PDX's sweetest jazz club.
Whiskey Bar
Deafening bass? Check. Lasers? Check. Hot chicks? Check. Shirtless bros? Check. Sweaty, aggressive dancing? Check. Small bar, one bartender, smoking porch? Check, check, check.

Policy on eliminating racial profiling in law enforcement
This policy is about identifying and preventing both individual and systemic racial profiling in law enforcement. It is meant to be a resource, primarily for law enforcement authorities.
Under the Code, every person has the right to be free from racial discrimination and harassment in the social areas of employment, services, goods, facilities, housing accommodation, contracts and membership in trade and vocational associations. You should not be treated differently because of your race or other related grounds, such as your ancestry, ethnicity, religion or place of origin.
Canada, its provinces and territories have strong human rights laws and systems in place to address discrimination. At the same time, we also have a legacy of racism – particularly towards Indigenous persons, but to other groups as well including African, Chinese, Japanese, South Asian, Jewish and Muslim Canadians – a legacy that profoundly permeates our systems and structures to this day, affecting the lives of not only racialized persons, but also all people in Canada.
Relevant policies:
This policy is about identifying and preventing both individual and systemic racial profiling in law enforcement. It is meant to be a resource, primarily for law enforcement authorities.
2006 - The Canadian Commission for UNESCO is inviting municipalities from across Canada to join a Canadian Coalition of Municipalities Against Racism and Discrimination and be part of a larger international coalition being promoted by UNESCO. This booklet provides information that will be useful in understanding some of the important details of this Coalition.
2012 - The Ontario Human Rights Code (the Code) provides for equal rights and opportunities, and freedom from discrimination. The Code recognizes the dignity and worth of every person in Ontario. It applies to the areas of employment, housing, facilities and services, contracts, and membership in unions, trade or vocational associations. Under the Code, every person has the right to be free from racial discrimination and harassment.
I am here today on behalf of the Ontario Human Rights Commission to indicate our general support for this proposed legislation.Let there be no doubt. Bullying is a critical human rights matter. Ontario's Human Rights Code is Ontario's highest law. All schools, including public, Catholic and private, have a legal duty to provide students with an educational environment free from harassment and other forms of discrimination because of their race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, creed, sexual orientation, age, marital status, family status or disability and sex including gender identity.

MK Yinon Magal (Jewish Home) excitedly discussed the final coalition agreement signed by his party and Likud on Thursday morning.
"We are happy negotiations are finished, there is a coalition, there is a government, we can start working" the former Walla! editor told the news site. "We are happy that at the end of the day, we have portfolios where we can express our agenda."
Magal took the time to address each of three ministries coming to Jewish Home and three top party members to receive them.
"When they thought Ayelet Shaked would be the minister of culture, they said this is the destruction of Israeli culture. Now, she's been appointed to serve as justice minister and it's the everlasting destruction of the High Court," Magal noted.
"I advise everyone to calm down," he continued. "Everything's fine. There's nothing stronger than democracy. We find it necessary to strengthen the Knesset against the Supreme Court, and to make some changes. This is not about revolutions."
Addressing reports of conflict within the party, Magal asserted that Tekuma faction head Uri Ariel had gotten the most senior portfolio after Jewish Home chairman Naftali Bennett, just as he'd asked.
"The most senior portfolio, even above education, went to Ayelet Shaked. Bennett gave it to Ayelet; he complimented her completely," Magal explained. "It's not always suitable for politicians to do this, but Naftali really thinks he should be Education Minister and promote Jewish and Zionist education to all of the Israeli people."
"These portfolios are not sectoral, and we can use them how we wish. The fact the ultimately the Right won elections gave us the legitimacy to do so," Magal added.
While the Right may have won, Magal was quick to assert that he hoped the government would expand in the future - even to include the leftist Zionist Union.
"I think we need a broad coalition that has security...I don't believe that we'll leave the government. We will remain, unless there are processes that would force us to leave, which contravene our viewpoint."
As to Zionist Union joining the government, Magal pronounced it was "a matter of what it right for the Israeli people, and it is right for there to be a wide coalition. It's all been said and done before. Anything can happen, it's okay.
"I don't know if I should say this now, but there have been lot stranger coalitions than one [with Jewish Home and Zionist Union]."

buy some old books that color coordinate. Depending on where you get them will determine the damage to your bank account, although I bought these at a thrift shop for 2 bucks each.
Not hard to find either. I found these all (except two) on the same day in the same store and I am certain there were tons more available. I am hoping to cover the entire top of my china cabinet with Blue, Yellow and Green Books.

When it comes to preparing for your baby's arrival, there's a tendency to believe that we have no control of how our baby arrives. When working with parents, I encourage them to focus on all of the things they can control.
Following are 10 tips to help you stack the odds in your favor of having a positive birth experience, no matter how your baby arrives.
• Choose your place of birth carefully. According to recent U.S. research, your risk of having an unexpected cesarean section depends more on your choice of hospital than any health complications you or your baby may experience on the big day. Not all hospitals are the same, and doing some homework in early pregnancy can make your birth a much more positive one.
• Move your body in pregnancy and in labor. Half of all first-time moms in the U.S. are considered obese at the beginning of pregnancy. That doesn't mean crash diets and CrossFit classes are recommended. Light exercise in pregnancy reduces your risk of complications and helps you build endurance and focus – all useful in labor. Being upright in labor is associated with shorter labors, less pain and less fetal distress. You get to share those lovely happy hormones (endorphins) with your baby, too. Yoga, walking and swimming are great options.
• Take an independent birth preparation class. Traditional hospital birth preparation classes often focus on what can go wrong in labor rather than on what can go right. In an independent childbirth class, you'll learn about your hospital's policies as well as all of your options so that you and your partner can navigate any decisions that need to be made more confidently. An independent teacher works for you – not the hospital.
• Hire a doula. There's a saying, "If doulas were a drug, it would be unethical not to use them." There are many benefits to hiring a birth doula, including less need for epidurals, significantly reduced cesarean births, less Pitocin and higher breastfeeding rates.
• Avoid the Negative Nellies. No doubt you've already met a few – those well-meaning friends and family members who can't wait to tell you how awful labor is. Find your positive birth tribe – people who will uplift you, encourage you and keep you feeling excited about what's to come. Find like-minded groups, both in person and online.
• Prepare your partner. Far too often, partners have been sidelined in the birth room, but with support, information and training, they can be the rock you need for emotional and physical support.
• Write down your birth preferences. Written birth preferences are a wonderful communication tool. It's not a contract or guarantee, but it can help you and your partner explore your options for birthing day and access personalized care rather than the standard hospital protocols, which may or may not be evidence-based.
• Labor in water. It's also known as the "midwife's epidural." Deep, warm-water immersion shortens labor, reduces pain and allows for greater freedom of movement. You are weightless – absolute bliss in labor.
• Build your labor toolkit. Don't give birth without a fit ball. Just sitting on it opens the pelvis and reduces pain as you move your pelvis around your descending baby. A TENS machine, acupressure, music and mental strategies such as the GentleBirth App also can help you feel calmer and more in control. In addition, medication is part of your labor toolkit – keep everything on the table for the most positive birth possible.
• Focus on what can go right. Despite what you see on "Grey's Anatomy," in most cases birth goes really well for healthy women and babies. Your mindset heading into birth is hugely important. Train your brain in pregnancy to prepare for a calm, positive birth, no matter how your baby arrives on the day.

Why Hackers Hack: The Hoodie
Mar 18 2020
63 mins
Kelvin Murray, Senior Threat Researcher @ Webroot
While it's easy to imagine a black-hat hacker as a hoodie-clad loner coding away in a dark room, this is seldom the case. Many operate in groups or even as part of larger communities or networks, and they often use the same techniques, strategies, and tools to accomplish their ends. Hackers are coordinated and work within a broad and complex network. They often have salaries, set holidays, bonus payments and sales arrangements that include reseller portals and component rental. The only prerequisite for becoming a target is simply having a website, which puts all businesses with an online presence at risk. Fortunately, threat awareness and a proactive approach to security can go a long way in keeping your business secure.
Join Kelvin Murray, Webroot Senior Threat Researcher, to learn why hackers hack and the methods they use so you can predict incoming threats, combat attacks, and securely lock down your business.
Key takeaways:
· Understand the major motivations behind why hackers hack
· Learn the strategies, tricks, and tools that hackers use to breach a business and which matter most for different business types
· Find out how to keep your business safe from becoming a target

Not long after scoring his 500th career goal, Chicago forward Marian Hossa had to leave the game against the Flyers on Tuesday night with a lower-body injury. Reports are saying that Hossa suffered the injury while blocking a shot and that he will be unavailable for tonight's game in Columbus. There are no other details to report at the moment, so we'll have to consider him day-to-day for the time being.
Hossa is off to a point-per-game start this season, aiding Stacey C. in his good start to the season, going into this weekend's action in 6th place, only 7 points back of our leader. Stacey's projected game total may be the highest in the pool, but day-to-day injuries don't come off that total, so it might not be a true reflection of how busy his weekend will be.
The dreaded c-word has descended on Dallas Stars forward Patrick Sharp, as he left Thursday night's game against the Los Angeles Kings with concussion-like symptoms after being hit awkwardly into the boards by defenseman Brayden McNabb. The Stars will likely know more here in the next day or so, but you would have to imagine that Sharp will go through the entire league protocol and stay away from game action for a week, at least, and have to pass his baseline tests in order to come back. I can see a stop on the Injured Reserve in the near future for him.
Just when Marcin's team was just starting to get going, it suffered a pretty good shot to the head. Marcin's team is in the midst of a pretty good week, with 17 points and moving up from 21st to 17th, but Sharp had really yet to start scoring, having only 1 point in four games this year. At least all his hot players are still healthy.

Having neuropathy means that you have nerve damage that can lead to unbearable burning, tingling, and even a loss of sensation in your extremities. Before neuropathy starts lowering your quality of life, find out how the podiatry team at Bregman Foot-Ankle & Nerve Center in Las Vegas can help. Schedule your neuropathy examination by clicking on the online scheduler or by calling the office directly. No other foot specialist in Las Vegas has the training and experience to treat your neuropathy. This is the main reason people travel from all over to see Dr. Bregman.
Neuropathy is a term used to describe damage to nerves, which can lead to a wide variety of issues, from muscle weakness to pins and needles sensations. You can develop neuropathy due to:
One of the most common causes of neuropathy is blood sugar fluctuations from diabetes. Medical experts report that more than half of diabetic patients develop neuropathy at some point in life.
It certainly can, but it just depends on your specific neuropathy diagnosis. Initially, peripheral neuropathy — meaning neuropathy in your arms and legs — begins with a gradual onset of prickling, tingling, and even numbness, which can start all the way down in your feet and toes.
As neuropathy progresses, you may experience:
Diabetic neuropathy is of particular concern because the numbness you experience can make it difficult for you to feel wounds. Since wound healing is already delayed when you have diabetes, a simple cut can quickly become infected if you can't feel it and don't know it's there.
Whether you're just starting to experience neuropathy symptoms or have been battling with neuropathy for an extended period, you have plenty of options for treatment at Bregman Foot-Ankle & Nerve Center. Your customized neuropathy treatment plan may include:
If you have diabetes, your neuropathy treatment plan may also include careful evaluation and monitoring of your blood sugar. Your team at Bregman Foot-Ankle & Nerve Center can partner with your primary care physician to help you more efficiently manage your diabetes.
As a last resort, if these conservative therapies aren't effective, you might need surgery. This specialized type of surgery often involves releasing pressure on the nerve(s) by carefully cutting into surrounding tissues to take the pressure off. Dr. Bregman is the only podiatrist in Nevada who has had specialized certification in this area. Rest assured, no matter which type of treatment is right for you, the team at Bregman Foot-Ankle & Nerve Center helps you find effective neuropathy relief.
Get relief from neuropathy discomfort by scheduling your exam at Bregman Foot-Ankle & Nerve Center right away. Book your visit online or over the phone.

Stock markets enjoyed another positive month in April, building on the first quarter's positive momentum.
These gains were driven by significant policy shifts from global leaders, particularly central banks. Reacting to the growth challenges of 2018, these institutions have generally moved from restrictive stances to more expansionary policies.
Examples of this include the US Federal Reserve cancelling the three interest rate hikes originally forecast and indicating none are likely in 2019. We have also seen the European Central Bank start a third round of Long-Term Refinancing Operations, offering cheap money to commercial banks on the condition these monies are extended in the form of loans.
China has also played its part, with a significant ramp up in credit issuance in the first quarter. Given Chinese banks are not fully independent of the state, their acceleration in lending activity is certainly an instruction from Beijing, further supporting the case that authorities have moved to a more expansive policy setting.
Given this swift and coherent approach from global central banks, the stage is set for a global growth to accelerate again as we move through the year. This opens the door for a move back to a more restrictive policy setting in 2020 but, for now, equities should continue to benefit from both improving growth and generous policy.
This is not to say equities won't endure periods of uncertainty in the months ahead. Indeed, after the fantastic run equities have enjoyed in the year to date, we could see markets suffer from either profit taking or sideways drift in the coming weeks and months.
Looking ahead, Japan will have to deal with a consumer tax hike which, at this stage in their recovery, would seem an unnecessary blow to a market attempting to regain its stride.
Meanwhile in Europe, long-term challenges remain, from demographics to a vulnerable banking sector and general political stress. However, the continent's fortunes are more closely tied to Chinese demand relative to the US. Whether they are buying automobiles, machines or LVMH handbags, a more robust economic showing from China will benefit Europe.
The value of investments can fall and you may get back less than you invested.
If you invest in currencies other than your own, fluctuations in currency value will mean that the value of your investment will move independently of the underlying asset.

When a colleague handed me the over-sized, glossy magazine asking if I had seen it, I had to laugh. "You can read this," he announced while holding it out, "but leave it here. I want to read it later."
The cover was an illustration of a lone woman in a movie theater. And the title of the periodical was simply HER. When I saw the page he had it opened to, I then knew why the interest for this single male that is currently living with his long-term girl-friend.
In a very clever section titled "her confessions", anonymous submissions were listed. Here are a few that caught my eye:
–I hate when my girlfriends get boyfriends because they completely change into different people!
–I don't recycle. At all. I hope everyone else is, because I can't be bothered.
–I am in love with my boyfriend, and he is my best friend, but I am not sexually attracted to him at all.
–Sometimes I drink out of a birthday mug and tell people it's my birthday.
–I'm so sick and tired of non-Christians judging my Christian beliefs. I try not to judge your lack of beliefs, so why do you think it's OK to judge my beliefs?
The birthday cup idea totally gets my vote. Can't resist. I will have to try that some day. When I am really tired and lonely maybe.
SO…you SINGLE GALS out there…what are some of YOUR confessions? Send them to us via the comments option. We'll post them soon! Anonymously – of course.

How does that even happen? Or, even more than that, does it?
The news had been full of reports decrying the "dozens" of people that attended the Tea Parties on Tax Day. Just a few angry, right wingers, venting and eschewing their tax-paying duties. Or so the stories went.
So you can imagine my utter shock while scanning the updates from friends in my Facebook pages when I came across one particular post from a past liberal friend that was ranting in full-fledged conservative fashion. The photo matched the person I knew, but the post made me blink not once, but about three times. I knew I may be in need of glasses, but this had to be wrong. This person that I had known years ago, a conservative bashing, left-wing liberal could not be the same individual now willfully calling herself a right-wing fanatic. If you would have told me that she would one day call herself a Right-Wing Extremist, and proudly blog about it? I would have laughed in your face.
This particular gal was as anti-republican as you could POSSIBLY get.
Naturally, in time, I would have to know more. One day, I bit the bullet, got up the nerve and finally asked for the scoop. Here is what I got:
"Oh Stephanie! Where would I even start? There have been so many changes in my life [over the last few] years, (for the better!) that I just want to cry with joy thinking about them. To say that I have started a new chapter would be minimalizing. I am a whole new book in a different section of the library!!!! 🙂
I can't tell you exactly when, or even how, I became such a conservative. The first I realized it was when I went to vote in the 2000 election. When I got into the little booth I just stared at the machine, knowing that I could not vote for Al Gore. I bet I stood there for 10 minutes. Heck, I had CAMPAIGNED for the guy. But I knew in my heart that there was no way I could do that. So I voted for Bush and have never looked back. But I think what really got me was when I started researching the Constitution as either firm law or as a "living document". And I went wild from there…:) "
All I can say is, "Wow". What struck me most was the joy that kept bubbling out of her as she shared. It was such a stark contrast to the anger and venom, and worse yet, those comments the media made about the folks that had such a great time at the tea parties? Ugh! What I saw from the "other side" was only angst, name calling and hatred. "Who'd want to be on that side of the fence", was all I could say as I watched my TV and read articles (after the tea parties) in amazement.
In short, we all joke about people crossing over. And as you can see from the above…it's happening. One voter at a time.
Just my thoughts.
April 24th, 2009 by stephanie
I was reading through some newsletters, as I do while going through my email each morning, and came across some info that I honestly either did not remember or had never heard of or learned. Here are a few for that fertile brain of yours today:
There are books that actually have the above information and the facts in regards to this topic. They address this type of information, but have been out of print for years. Thanks to the efforts of some very dedicated folks, they are now available for purchase. I personally ordered two!
You can go to AmericanVision.org and browse around. The two I purchased were:
1. Christian Life and Character of the Civil Institutions of the U.S. and,
2. United States: A Christian Nation
If we as a people only knew what we'd lost along the wayside…wow, we could really make a difference. I think we're beginning to find out just what we as a nation have forgotten. And I think we're beginning to band together in hopes of turning this Titanic around. For those of you that have an interest in this type of knowledge…
And remember…knowledge is power.
Be in the know!

David Yassky, the Brooklyn city councilman who is running for comptroller, received the backing on Thursday of two men who helped guide New York City out of its fiscal nadir in the mid-1970s.
Harrison J. Goldin, known as Jay, who served as city comptroller from 1974 to 1989, and Felix G. Rohatyn, who as chairman of the New York Municipal Assistance Corporation helped engineer the rescue plan that followed the city's near-bankruptcy in 1975, endorsed Mr. Yassky.
Mr. Yassky is vying against three other Democratic opponents — Councilwoman Melinda R. Katz, Councilman John C. Liu and Councilman David I. Weprin, all of Queens — for the position of comptroller. The incumbent, William C. Thompson Jr., is running for mayor.
"During the fiscal crisis of the 1970s, working with labor leaders and elected officials, Comptroller Goldin and Ambassador Rohatyn crafted a rescue plan that was both tough-minded and compassionate — and most important, realistic," Mr. Yassky said. "As I have campaigned over the past few months, I have been increasingly mindful that New York City could face a day of reckoning comparable to that of October 1975. As the next comptroller, I am determined to do everything in my power to avert that day. I am profoundly honored to have the support of these two distinguished leaders."
Mr. Rohatyn called Mr. Yassky "a man of integrity, experience and fiscal expertise," while Mr. Goldin said Mr. Yassky would "root out government waste and get the city's cost structure under control."

This house is a dream. Some may say the decor is cold and lacks personality. I say it`s quite the opposite. Everything from the color palette to furniture choice to art selection speaks calm, inviting and relaxing. As a textile designer I am drawn to blues, grays and neutral tones and believe they create perfect foundation for a space you want to come back to every day.
A weather-beaten bungalow by the sea is re-created as a shell and sailboat free zone. Sea and sky meld into one when viewed through the three-metre-high sliding glass that fronts this clifftop aerie with bird's-eye panoramas. The margins between the house and its setting are similarly blurred, the light-washed interiors by designers Hare & Klein breathing in the everchanging seascape beyond. But while fluid and dynamic, the space also owes a debt to Sydney's eastern suburbs, which stretch out behind. Combining coastal cool with city sophistication, this may be a beach home, but it's no beach house.

New passenger buses ordered by SEPTA have been delayed by production problems, forcing the transit agency to continue operating old buses that are increasingly prone to mechanical breakdowns.
The first of 275 new electric-diesel buses purchased for $202.6 million was delivered this week, SEPTA officials said Wednesday.
The first bus is more than a year behind schedule. The vehicles are being built by Nova Bus, Inc., a subsidiary of Volvo Bus Corp., headquartered in Saint-Eustache, Quebec, Canada.
Much of the assembly of the SEPTA buses is being done at a Nova plant in Plattsburgh, N.Y.
The buses have been delayed by a shortage of workers, improper seat installation, faulty electrical systems, and bus panels that were painted the wrong color, SEPTA officials said.
Nova faces penalties of $100 per bus for each day it is late.
"The worst is behind us," Ronald Hopkins, assistant general manager of operations for SEPTA, said Wednesday. "We think all the big engineering problems are worked out."
Hopkins said the production delays created service problems for SEPTA, because of increasing maintenance difficulties with the existing fleet, some of which is 18 years old.
SEPTA has 1,400 buses, and it is seeking to replace about 100 buses a year to reduce the average age of a bus to six years.
Seventy new 60-foot-long "articulated" buses, with an accordion-style body section to permit tighter turning, are now expected to be delivered to SEPTA by the end of December, Hopkins said.
Ninety 40-foot-long buses are now scheduled to be delivered by January, 2015, Hopkins said.
An additional 45 60-foot buses are expected by May, 2015, and 40 more 60-footers are scheduled to arrive by August, 2015.
Those 85 buses are still on schedule, SEPTA spokesman Andrew Busch said.
In addition, SEPTA recently exercised its option to purchase 30 more 60-foot buses from Nova for $24.2 million.
Those buses are scheduled to be delivered by the first quarter of 2016, Hopkins said.

Green Beans & Cranberries
Anytime I see fresh green beans at the store I have to grab a bag. There will be a few more green bean recipes to come, but this was my first recipe I did with fresh green beans. They add a juicy crunch that I love. Then there's cranberries. Fresh cranberries are great for vitamin … More Green Beans & Cranberries

At The Fish Pier
Dusk at Portsmouth's Commercial Fish Pier on Peirce Island.
At The Fish Pier
Dusk at Portsmouth's Commercial Fish Pier on Peirce Island.
Making the best of a cloudless evening isn't always easy – but it's usually fun, especially when water and reflections are available. Here, two of the vessels of Portsmouth's commercial fishing fleet are docked on a very quiet and calm Piscataqua River. The Naval Prison and the shipyard can be seen in the background. I love the calm and very "New England" feel of the scene.
A classic black and white take on one of the seacoast's busiest locations on the water – The Wentworth Marina. Next to the Wentworth By The Sea Hotel, this spot has become a favorite place to go for a stroll to enjoy the waterfront and gorgeous sunsets.
Portsmouth's commercial fishing fleet sits docked at the fish pier as seen from Prescott Park. For whatever reason, I can never get enough of these boats…Loved the clouds & the colors in this shot as I was sorting through the archives.
It's that time of year when everyone loves being in the Seacoast. The Wentworth Marina in New Castle is no exception, and the water is packed with all types of boats. This was the first time I'd ever made my way down to the docks below the Latitudes restaurant that belongs to the upscale waterfront hotel…and I was blown away at how fancy everything felt, even though I had expected it to be of the highest quality. The setting was surreal, though the lighting wasn't the best…but I was happy to come away with this shot and a few others that will make their way to the site over the next couple weeks.

Rewards credit cards can be amazing tools for you to earn valuable rewards on your spending if you play your cards right. Rewards credit cards are some of the best credit cards for savvy consumers who are looking to make each dollar they spend go further. In general, rewards credit cards let cardholders earn rewards points, miles or cash back on each dollar they spend on purchases.
That said, keep in mind that some rewards credit cards let you earn unlimited rewards while others may have a limit on the total amount of rewards you can earn. Also, some rewards credit cards let you earn a fixed amount of rewards across all your purchases while others let you earn rewards at an accelerated rate on certain types of purchases, say airline tickets, dining, groceries, gas, hotel bookings, etc. Some cards also have rotating categories that change quarterly or several times a year - some of these require that you enroll in the categories within a specific date range. It pays to do your homework and figure out which rewards credit card best suits your lifestyle and spending needs.
Depending on the specific rewards credit card you hold and your credit card company's rewards program, the type of things you can redeem your rewards for will vary. Broadly speaking, most rewards programs are quite flexible and allow you to redeem rewards for a range of things such as cold hard cash, travel, air miles, hotel stays, merchandise, gift cards, statement credit, etc.
The common types of rewards credit cards that are available on the market include cash back credit cards, hotel credit cards, airline credit cards, travel credit cards and bonus credit cards. The latter offers customers with excellent or good credit attractive sign-up bonus offers if they haven't had the cards before.
How do sign-up bonus offers work? Well, in order to lay your hands on a sweet bonus, you are usually required to spend a certain amount on your new card within the first few months of card approval. Each credit card is different, so read the fine print carefully before applying. It helps to you plan your purchases - especially big ticket items - ahead of time so you can take advantage of the generous sign-up bonus offers that require a certain amount of spending within a specific time frame.
How to make sure your rewards really count
The most important thing to do in order to ensure that your credit card rewards really count is to never carry a balance on your rewards credit card (or any other credit card for that matter). By not carrying a balance, you avoid inccuring interest charges and late payment fees. These fees and charges can easily erode the value of the rewards you have earned!
To make sure your credit card rewards equal real savings, adopt the good habit of paying your credit card bill in full and on time every month. Also, it helps that you factor in the cost of using your rewards credit card - some rewards credit cards come with annual fees while others do not.

Drawing on the classic lines and proven design characteristics of a traditional Prospector canoe, the Broadland is a true all rounder and a real workhorse.
Silverbirch have optimized the chine, camber, and sidewall profile from the original Prospector design to increase both primary and secondary stability – making the Broadland a confidence inspiring canoe to paddle.
A carefully considered rocker profile, and a symmetrical hull form ensure the Broadland 15 and 16 paddle well either tandem or solo, this is a fantastic boat for a beginner, which will have a long life and see you through many exciting adventures whilst consistently improving your paddling skills, not only is it great for a gentle paddle down the River Wye with the family for a picnic, you can also happily take it down some bouncy whitewater to get the adrenaline going.
Our Polyethylene canoes are available in two specially developed constructions:
Duracore is a tough and durable three-layer Polyethylene material.
Made to last with a tough, high-density outer skin, a closed cell foam core, and a medium density inside skin to help dissipate the energy from impacts.
Duracore is made with a tough, UV stable, and abrasion resistant outer skin, and is easily repairable at home should you ever have an accident and damage it.
Duracore Canoes are only available in two colours: Cherry Red and Forest Green
The outer skin is made with an incredibly stiff and tough whitewater grade plastic – the best we can find, the foam has been optimized to have a lower density, giving us a thicker core than that used in Duracore, and the material distribution between the layers has been optimised to make the most of the superior materials.
The result? Stiffer, lighter, and yet just more durable!
The noticeable weight saving over our Duracore laminate puts many models made with Duralite into close competition with more expensive canoes produced with composite or royalex construction methods.
Duralite Canoes are available in seven different colours: Yellow, Orange, Pink, Red, Blue, Black and Green.
Both Duracore plus and Duralite laminates come with a choice of trim options. Vinyl is fitted as standard and comes with webbing seats, ash handles, and an ash carrying yoke. Beautiful, hand crafted ash gunwales are an optional extra, which really accentuate the Broadland's graceful, sweeping curves.
Vinyl - Their custom vinyl gunwale profile is matched with webbing seats, plastic end plates, and ash handles and carrying yoke to give a durable, low maintenance outfitting option.
Ash - Every canoe with ash gunwales is hand finished with pride at our Norfolk production facility. After carefully fitting the ash profiles, the gunwales are planed and oiled by hand, and then matched with ash end plates, ash handles and carrying yoke, and webbing bound ash seats. Not only does it give a beautiful, natural finish, but is several kilos lighter than the vinyl alternative.

Waterfalls are one of the most popular subjects for landscape photographers, as they offer the chance to create dramatic images that capture the viewer's imagination. If you are interested in improving your waterfall photos, this great video will give you 10 helpful tips to get you on your way.
Coming to you from Photo Tom, this helpful video will give you 10 tips for taking better waterfall photos. One tip I particularly appreciated was getting lower when shooting small waterfalls. I personally love them, but here in Ohio, we do not really have any spectacularly big waterfalls; in fact, most of them around around two to five feet tall, occasionally a little higher. I learned to grab a wide angle lens and get low and close to give them a more dramatic perspective. In fact, this often meant treading into waist-deep water with my tripod (obviously, be very careful doing this and take all appropriate safety precautions for you and your equipment), but it was well worth the hassle. Check out the video above for lots of helpful tips.

Lost me at rule number one. Why do people insist on long exposures of moving water. About the only time people freeze the action is large waves in the ocean or waves crashing on the shoreline (usually against rocks).
Yet another person who thinks that long exposure "silky water" photography is "creative."
PP had a similar article recently and I commented that I'm one of the four people on earth who shoot waterfalls with a fast shutter speed. I want to see and feel the crispness of the water droplets, not look at a bag of flour being poured over some rocks.
Someone replied that the whole blurred waterfall look that people still insist on was spawned by early cameras that couldn't shoot with fast shutter speeds, and people never thought after 100 years that there may be a better way to do it. I don't have any validation for this statement, but it's a reasonable hypothesis.
I think there are more than four of us!
I was being a bit facetious but you have to admit the preponderance of hobbyists or pros still blur that water.
One area where there may be even fewer shooting short shutter speeds is fireworks. I want my pictures to look like the fireworks I see in the sky, not some long weird streak, so my shutter speeds are not elongated like most hobbyists and pros. I suspect that long-exposure trend started the same way waterfalls did, when gear required a long shutter speed and there was no alternative.
Thanks for being one of us. I would love to think that in 50 years when I'm long gone that blurred waterfalls will be more the exception than the rule.
