The Big Diabetes Lie
Interventions have been targeted at altering a number of behavioral factors including obesity, dietary intake and physical activity. Obesity, of course, should be considered the result of behavioral, genetic and physiological factors and not simply behavioral. Pharmacological interventions have primarily used hypoglycemic or anti-hyperglycemic medication to reverse insulin resistance (biguanides, thiazolidenediones), failure of insulin secretion (sulfonylureas), or glycemic excursions (alpha-glucosidase inhibitors). Trials have attempted to alter glucose metabolism using metal supplementation (magnesium, chromium) or antioxidants (beta-carotene, vitamin E). Trials that have used

Hijab New York Fashion Week Ramp -With the evolution of fashion, we see many changes every day. Hijab is becoming quite a popular change in the Western Fashion world. We see that Unique partnered with a Muslim designer and very recently D&G came up with abaya collection.
Now all of this indicates the shift of fashion towards more modest trends. The fashion world has molded in a very interesting way and it plays a vital role in changing the cultural mindsets of people.
New York Fashion week Hijab
Yes, you read that right, a new and young designer, Annesia Hasibun pleasantly surprised the audience at New York runway. Her collection was entirely comprised of hijabs, and they were loved by the audience. Like previously she showcased her collection at Istanbul Modest Fashion Week, similarly Hasibun also made a brilliant show by portraying her collection completely in hijab.
I'm sure you would want to know the designer behind this beautiful collection, it's Jakarta-based designer Anneisa Hasibuan. Have a look t how beautiful she herself looks in her hijab:
In the perfect hues of greys and pastels, the dresses were beautifully embellished with embroidery and laces, the hijabs and dresses were mainly on traditional Indonesian jacquard fabric. Now doesn't this sound so pleasing? It can be clearly witnessed that Hasibun's collection was inspired by her hometown, and undoubtedly she did justice to it.
The dresses left everyone in awe, the non-Muslim audience were so greatly impressed by the outfits, that they congratulated the designer by giving her a standing ovation and encouraging her for the daring concept and displaying it.
Here is the video in which models doing Catwalk in Hijab.
Here is a few clicks from her special Hijab collection, the models will leave you in an awe as well! And don't miss out these 2016 Hijab Styles-20 Latest Hijab Fashion Ideas For This Year
Aren't these hijabs magic, looks like straight out of a fairy tale.
In her own words, Hasibun wrote on her Instagram account, "I believe fashion is one of the outlets in which we can start that cultural shift in today's society to normalize hijab in America so as to break down stereotypes and demystify misconceptions,"
This trend of "Modest Fashion" is greatky credited to Indonesia, many Indonesian designers have worked upon ideas and have bought many changes in the look Muslim outfits look like, in contrast to the plain black abaya which is usually counted as the only way Muslim women can carry themselves.
Such changes in the world of fashion also molds the mindset regarding culture. In these times when Islam image is under eyes of many, these are the areas which softens the overall image. Husiban's collection was one of those benchmarks which help eliminate the rigid look of Islam.
While talking to the Post, she stated, "My ready-to-wear line is simple and elegant, but still uses the luxurious materials that I am known for, and my wearers can now feel like princesses in their day-to-day lives, not just on special occasions." Here are the 14 Popular Hijab Street Style Fashion Ideas This Season
Look how gracefully Annesia Hasibun takes over the ramp, and accept all the appreciation on that her work truly deserves.
We hope that this trend continues for the best, so fashion and style can become part of everyone's life. Kudos to Hasibun for taking the first step!
A content writer by the day and a reader by the night – two things that she loves the most. When Zoona isn't writing, she'll either be thinking of what to bake next or where to travel next.

Alhambra Street Addition – Project by Gayle
The family in this home needed a little more space and were able to achieve that by putting on a garage addition with a generation suite. This also gave them the opportunity to remodel their kitchen. Gayle designed the addition, kitchen, and bathroom and ensured the new space tied in with the existing space. The beautiful new kitchen has Shiloh cabinets and Cambria New Quay countertops. The new bathroom is set off by the mosaic accent tile.
W 62nd Terrace Porch Addition – Project by Megan
This porch, designed by Megan, was added on to this wonderful craftsman bungalow home in Brookside. It is an enclosed porch allowing for the homeowners to enjoy it year around. The white porch addition is perfectly tied in with the home's white trim.
SW Waterfall Drive Addition – Project by Donna
The family in this Lee's Summit home needed a little more space. They worked with Donna to add on a craft room, playroom and laundry room. Together they created a fun space with dry erase wall coating and yellow stools. The cubbies help keep the room organized and feature magnetic artboard cabinet door inserts.

Answer: Warrants are generally not required for breath tests. A police officer in a drunk driving case that wants to do a breath test will usually begin by asking you if you will consent or if you will agree to take a breath test. And if you say yes to that, they can go ahead with the test. If you say "no," then you may be subject to penalties for refusing to take the breath test, which could include in Wisconsin the revocation of your drivers license. But generally they can't force you to take a breath test and they can't get a warrant.
Sometimes if you refuse to take a breath test, the police agency will give you the penalties for refusing to take the test and they'll leave it at that. Sometimes if you refuse to take the test, the police will decide that they want to get a warrant for a blood test, because they can get a warrant for a blood test. And if that is obtained and signed off on by a judge, they can take you to a hospital and they can get a blood test.

Off season officially arrived this week with the closure of Vail and Beaver Creek for the winter season. There may still be skiing in Summit County, but Vail is moving on to warmer-weather activities.
Weather is still a varied springtime mix, however, of rain, snow, wind, some sunshine and clouds. Everyone should expect the unexpected, basically, well into May.
What I like about springtime in the valley is the relaxed lifestyle offered when the mountain closes. The sun will shine, hiking trails will dry out and restaurants will offer delicious deals. Nozawa in Avon is already offering 50% off sushi, for example.
With that in mind, here are my top picks for Vail Valley This Week.

Why did Scott Rudin bail? I think you get enormous freedom with animation and illustrations. Rather than presenting an argument, this film unfolds with dream logic. You mean, right now, just sitting here? Oh, it's meant to be very ironic!
During the five years he tried to launch Thank You for Smoking, he declined offers to make bad movies which didn't speak to him. This gangster epic reflects the current predilection of French filmmakers for genre flicks and commercial versus arthouse. It's just like in love -- I need to keep moving. Kelly Ray has enjoyed dancing her whole life.

It's a bright sunday morning. Some light (sunlight) is filling my window. It does not feel invasive when the light comes into the room, and presses itself cleanly, like a screenprint, trapezoidally across desk and woodfloor. Sunlight (some light) is the beauty of the sun's day.
I wonder about the metaphor of light: 'spiritual illumination'. Does this entail a spirirual heat as well? Spiritual radiation? A spiritual spectrum tucked into the plain white light? Spiritual sunburn?

The Baby Jumper Toddler bounce house is perfect for toddlers. Actually, we had these made as an option for toddler birthday parties. Instead of fitting toddlers in a big bounce house consider one of these. Comparatively, the baby jumper is made from the same material as the big ones. Because of the small statue it fits easily in a bedroom. Some people set it up in a den or on a small patio as well. Indeed, the 6 feet height and 6 feet width makes it a great indoor unit. Large net windows are on each side. Therefore it less intimidating for the new jumpers. The low step entrance makes it much easier to enter and exit the bouncy. This one comes in a couple of different popular color schemes.
All of our units are constructed from commercial grade vinyl and reinforced stitching. They are designed to be used for extended outdoor use so get ready to party ALL WEEKEND long.
Any colorful theme
Car, Truck, SUV, Van, Trailer
Dimensions: 6 W x 6 L x 6 H
Total Weight Limit: 250 lbs
Age Limit: up to 3 years old
Blowers included: 1
This party rental item is a great attraction for a birthday party, block party, school fun day, church festival, reunion, festival, and so much more. Check out our bounce houses, slides, combos, obstacle courses, and more.

As new, fine dining restaurants in the heart of Hull's premier and newly developed Fruit Market and Hessle Weir, 1884 needed to immediately communicate their brand into the restaurant-heavy and competitive market. They offer a full service restaurant experience in a casual atmosphere. Without a website or an established brand, 1884 needed to launch their restaurant with a high-impact first impression.
Inspired by the owner's reputation for a fine-dining experience, we launched Cucina 1884 and Steak 1884's first website with an eccentric, attention-grabbing design that conveyed their characteristic atmosphere while displaying their offerings.
We embraced the restaurant's logo and amplified it into a full brand that visually describes the comfortable and trend-setting atmosphere of the 1884 restaurants. Branding included creating business cards for restaurant management. Using a clean, simple design with a punch of accent color, we provided 1884 a sophisticated and modern business card, befitting of their brand.
The website also reflected the luxurious feeling of the restaurant's food and comfort of the atmosphere, in a fully functioning marketing tool. We designed the website with a look that is clean and simple, making it user-friendly and straight to the point. In a beautiful digital experience, designed for both mobile and desktop, the end-user can quickly locate the menu, call the restaurant's phone number with one touch, and make reservations.

Video: Proof That Huckabee is Gaining Support
Someone, who appears to be nameless at this point (Giuliani campaign, Thompson campaign, Romney campaign, etc…) released this video on YouTube showing Governor Mike Huckabee sounding a bit friendly to tax increases:
The video appears to originate from a fairly new blog, started July '07, called the Arkansas Journal but who knows. The YouTube account it was uploaded from was created Monday, November 12, 2007 and this, suspiciously, is their only video. The writer of the blog, Henry Reardon, claims to be "Arkansas's #1 Conservative Blog". Browsing through past posts yields a lot of anti-Huckabee rhetoric. I emailed the author just for his comment on the issue, I'll update with his response, if any.
Doesn't really speak for Huckabee's record. However, I think Marc Ambinder from The Atlantic has it correct:
It's not so much whether the context is right or whether Huckabee is or isn't a solid fiscal conservative — it's about whether this video is used by an opponent in a television ad and whether the Iowa media, at some point in December, runs the clip over-and-over.
Giuliani and Romney have both been victims of their own words coming back to haunt them in the form of a YouTube video from a newly created account.

The San Francisco Animal Control and Welfare Commission wants to take away your goldfish, proposing a bill that would also include a renewed ban on pets like puppies, kittens and hamsters.
The proposed ban is meant to discourage "impulse buys" of pets that sometimes end up at shelters, said commission member Philip Gerrie.
He said goldfish, guppies and other tropical fish were added to the proposed ban because of what he called the "inhumane suffering of fish" and the way the fish are harvested.
"It causes animal suffering," Gerrie told Fox News Radio. "Whole reefs and eco-systems are being exploited for whatever might be marketable or sellable."
The Board of Supervisors considered a similar ban last year that would have included dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, rats and guinea pigs - but not fish. That proposed ban was tabled last August.
The proposed fish ban has local pet store owners up in arms.
"The city is taking more and more control," said Ocean Aquarium owner Justin Hau in an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle. "They are very stupid."
Gerrie said that's the response he expected from pet store owners.
"They have a very strong interest to say it's stupid," he told Fox News Radio. "That's the basic thing with human beings. We exploit everything in the world until it's exhausted."
Gerrie accused the "human" species with exploiting the environment - and the fish.
"Humans are overfishing for food," he said. "There's a huge market for aquarium fish. That creates a demand."
As for people who would argue that it's just a goldfish?
"That's how we are in this society," Gerrie said. "Some people say, 'It's just a human' - when it comes to some that kills. It's a matter of degree. Where do you stop?"
The recommendation from the commission could be a tough sell among the Board of Supervisors.
Supervisor Sean Elsbernd told the San Francisco Chronicle he had doubts the new proposal would pass - calling it "another Animal Welfare idea that will end up in the dustbin of history and go absolutely nowhere."

CONCORD, N.C. — Clint Bowyer, a usual Chase for the Sprint Cup championship participant, had to earn a spot into the $1 million Sprint All-Star Race.
CONCORD, N.C. — Clint Bowyer, a usual Chase for the Sprint Cup championship participant, had to earn a spot into the $1 million Sprint All-Star Race.
It wasn't a surprise when he won Friday night's Sprint Showdown to earn an automatic transfer into the main event.
The upset Friday night went to Josh Wise, the stunning winner of the fan vote. Powered by the online community at Reddit and fans who support him through the digital currency Dogecoin, Wise beat out favorite Danica Patrick to earn his first berth in the All-Star race.
"Man, that's unreal. I can't believe that," Wise said. "I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. This is huge for me and my team."
A movement began on Reddit early in the season behind a 16-year-old who was impressed by Wise's effort with underfunded Phil Parsons Racing.
Denis Pavel of Niles, Illinois, noticed Wise had a strong run at Bristol in a car in desperate need of sponsorship. Pavel thought of past fundraisers he'd seen on Reddit, and helped raise enough Dogecoin currency to sponsor Wise's car at Talladega. The movement then switched to get him into the All-Star race.
"I didn't even know what Reddit was," Bowyer told Wise after the race. "That fan vote is a cool thing, and for you, your community, to beat Danica out is saying something, so good job."
Making it into Saturday night's race ensures a $70,000 payday for Phil Parsons Racing, which wouldn't have gotten into the All-Star race without the fan vote. Wise finished 18th in the 23-car field.
Wise will have a tough time pulling off another big surprise Saturday night in a field full of 19 race winners, Bowyer and AJ Allmendinger, who finished second in the Showdown to earn the other transfer spot.

A streamliner is a vehicle incorporating streamlining in a shape providing reduced air resistance. The term is applied to high-speed railway trainsets of the 1930s to 1950s, and to their successor "bullet trains". Less commonly, the term is applied to fully faired recumbent bicycles. As part of the Streamline Moderne trend, the term was applied to passenger cars, trucks, and other types of light-, medium-, or heavy-duty vehicles, but now vehicle streamlining is so prevalent that it is not an outstanding characteristic. In land speed racing, it is a term applied to the long, slender, custom built, high-speed vehicles with enclosed wheels.
The first high-speed streamliner in Germany was the "Schienenzeppelin", an experimental propeller driven single car, built 1930. On 21 June 1931, it set a speed record of 230.2 km/h (143.0 mph) on a run between Berlin and Hamburg. In 1932 the propeller was removed and a hydraulic system installed. The Schienenzeppelin made 180 km/h (112 mph) in 1933.
The Schienenzeppelin led to the construction of the diesel-electric DRG Class SVT 877 "Flying Hamburger". This two-car train set had 98 seats and a top speed of 160 km/h (99 mph). During regular service starting on 15 May 1933, this train ran the 286 kilometres (178 mi) between Hamburg and Berlin in 138 minutes with an average speed of 124.4 km/h (77.3 mph). The SVT 877 was the prototype for the DRG Class SVT 137, first built in 1935 for use in the FDt express train service. During test drives, the SVT 137 "Bauart Leipzig" set a world speed record of 205 km/h (127 mph) in 1936. The fastest regular service with SVT 137 was between Hannover and Hamm with an average speed of 132.2 km/h (82.1 mph). This service lasted until 22 August 1939.
In 1935 Henschel & Son a major manufacture of steam locomotives was able to upgrade its various steam locomotives to a high speed Streamliner type with a maximum speeds of up to 85 km/h (53 mph) by the addition of a removable shell over the old steam locomotive. The type was used on the Frankfort and Main and Berlin route.[1]
In the United Kingdom development of streamlined passenger services began in 1934 with the Great Western Railway introducing relatively low speed streamlined railcars and the London and North Eastern Railway introducing the "Silver Jubilee" service using streamlined A4 class steam locomotives and full length trains rather than railcars. In 1938 on a test run the locomotive Mallard built for this service broke the record for the fastest steam locomotive reaching 126 mph (203 km/h). The London Midland and Scottish Railway introduced streamline locomotives of the Princess Coronation Class shortly before the outbreak of war.
The Ferrovie dello Stato (Italian railways) developed the FS Class ETR 200, a three unit electric streamliner. The development started in 1934. These trains went into service in 1937. On 6 December 1937 an ETR 200 made a top speed of 201 km/h (125 mph) between Campoleone and Cisterna on the run Rome-Naples. In 1939 the ETR 212 even made 203 km/h (126 mph). The 219-kilometre (136 mi) journeys from Bologna to Milan were made in 77 minutes, meaning an average of 171 km/h (106 mph).
In the Netherlands Nederlandse Spoorwegen introduced the Materieel 34 (DE3) a three unit 140 km/h (87 mph) streamlined diesel-electric trainset in 1934. An electric version, Materieel 36 went into service in 1936. From 1940 the "Dieselvijf" (DE5), a 160 km/h (99 mph) top speed five unit diesel-electric trainset based on DE3, completed the Dutch streamliner fleet. During test runs, a DE5 ran 175 km/h (109 mph). That year the similar electric Materieel 40 were first built.
In Czechoslovakia in 1934 Czechoslovak State Railways ordered two motor railcars with maximum speed 130 km/h (81 mph). The order was received by Tatra company, which was producing first streamlined mass-produced automobile Tatra 77 in that time. The railcar project was led by Tatra chief designer Hans Ledwinka and received streamlined design. Both ČSD Class M 290.0 were delivered in 1936 with desired 130 km/h (81 mph) maximum speed, although during test runs one car reached 148 km/h (92 mph) mark. They were run on Czechoslovak prominent route Prague-Bratislava under Slovenská strela (Slovak for "Slovak Arrow") brand.
Facing a catastrophic loss of business during the Great Depression, American railroads cast their eyes on streamlined trains of lightweight material, streamlined to gain speed, and using an internal combustion diesel engine rather than steam.[2] Two early American streamliners were the Union Pacific M-10000 (nicknamed Little Zip and as The City of Salina in revenue service 1934-41) and the Burlington Zephyr. Design of the Zephyr (later named the Pioneer Zephyr to distinguish it) started first, although the train took longer to build due to an advanced design incorporating a diesel-electric power system; the M-10000 used a spark-ignition engine running on "petroleum distillate", a fuel similar to kerosene. These trains were much lighter than the common engines and passenger cars of the day, as the "Zephyr" was constructed using stainless steel and the M-10000 chiefly of the aircraft alloy Duralumin. Both trains were star attractions at the 1933–1934 World's Fair ("A Century of Progress") in Chicago, Illinois.
On May 26, 1934, the Zephyr made a record-breaking "Dawn to Dusk" run from Denver, Colorado to Chicago. The train covered the distance in 13 hours, reaching a top speed of 112.5 mph (181.1 km/h) and running an average speed of 77.6 mph (124.9 km/h). The fuel for the run cost US$14.64 (at 4¢ per U.S. gallon).
For a short time in the late 1930s, the ten fastest trains in the world were all American streamliners.
A variety of Zephyrs were built for Burlington by the Budd Company. For example, after the introduction of the Pioneer Zephyr, two Twin Cities Zephyrs of the same design briefly served the link between Chicago and the Twin Cities. As a public relations gimmick, the two trains first headed to Minnesota on parallel tracks while carrying twins as passengers. Within a few years, the trains were replaced with a slightly different design, and the original trains went to the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad.
The Gulf, Mobile and Northern Railroad Rebel trains were lightweight and streamlined, but not articulated. Designed by Otto Kuhler, diesel-electrics built by American Car and Foundry Company were placed into service July 10, 1935.
The success of the visual styling of the stainless steel locomotives did not go unnoticed by railroads still committed to the steam engine. Many steam locomotives were streamlined during this time to attract passengers, although the streamlining was less effective in improving efficiency for those engines than it was in making a visual statement. The first steam streamliner locomotive was the New York Central's Commodore Vanderbilt.[3] Nonetheless, some of these steam locomotives became very fast—some were said to exceed 120 mph (193 km/h) on a regular basis. Examples include the New York Central's "Super Hudsons" as used on the Twentieth Century Limited and Empire State Express; the Milwaukee Road's purpose-built Atlantics and Hudsons used in Hiawatha service; the Pennsylvania Railroad's duplex-drive 4-4-4-4 type T1 locomotives, and two Union Pacific engines, a 4-6-2 and a 4-8-2, used on the Forty Niner and other trains.
The trend of streamliners also hit Japan. In 1934, Ministry of Railways (Japanese Government Railways, JGR) decided to convert one of its 3-cylinder steam locomotives class C53 into streamlined style. The selected locomotive was No.43 of class C53. However Hideo Shima, the chief engineer of the conversion, thought streamlining had no practical effect on reducing air resistance, because Japanese trains at that time did not exceed maximum speed of 100 km/h (62 mph). Therefore, he designed the locomotive to create air flow that lifted exhaust smoke away from the locomotive. He had expected no practical effect on reducing air resistance completely, therefore he never tried to test fuel consumption or tractive force of the converted locomotive.[4] The Japanese government planned to use this one converted streamline locomotive on the passenger express route between Osaka and Nagoya.[5]
The converted locomotive gained much popularity from the public. So JGR decided to build 21 new streamlined versions of the (Japanese)class C55 locomotive. Also JGR built 3 streamlined class EF55 electric locomotives. Kiha-43000 diesel multiple units and Moha-52 electric multiple units also got streamlined style. South Manchuria Railway under Japanese control at that time also designed Pashina type streamlined locomotive and operated Asia Express, which had total coordinated style with Pashina locomotive.[4]
These streamlined steam locomotives took many man hours to repair due to its casing. After the outbreak of WW2, the lack of an experienced labor force made the problems worse. Finally, the casings were removed and these locomotives were used with a miserable appearance.[4]
Streamliners and successor high-speed train systems largely disappeared in the United States due to the increasing popularity of the automobile and airline travel. Following a 1951 decision by the Interstate Commerce Commission, most trains were restricted to speeds of 79 mph (127 km/h) or below unless automatic train stop, automatic train control, or cab signalling was installed.[6] Government regulations forced railroads to continue to operate passenger-carrying rail service, even on long routes where, the railroads argue, it was almost impossible to make a profit. The government's heavy support of highway-building projects exacerbated the problem. Since 1971, the majority of passenger rail systems in the United States have been operated by Amtrak. Faster Acela Express trains have been introduced in the Boston to Washington, D.C. Northeast Corridor. Many areas around the United States have been considering construction of new high-speed lines, but rail travel is much less common in the United States than in Europe or Japan.
After 26 years of service and traveling over 3,000,000 miles (4,800,000 km), the Pioneer Zephyr went to Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. The M-10000 was scrapped, along with many other early trainsets. It was retired in 1942 and its Duralumin skin was recycled for military aircraft. The Flying Yankee, the third streamliner to be completed, is undergoing restoration to operational condition. Its design is only slightly different from the first Zephyr.
In Europe the streamliner tradition gained new life after World War II. In Germany, the DRG Class SVT 137 were used again, but at lower speed. Based on the Kruckenberg SVT 137 the DB Class VT 11.5 (later renamed to DB Class 601) was used as "Trans Europ Express (TEE)" for international high speed trains. In East Germany the DR Class VT 18.16 was built for international express service also. From 1965, DB used more and more streamlined electric locomotives DB Class 103 with regular trains for high speed service, but from 1973 DB used with the DB Class ET 403 (nickname "Donald Duck") a real streamliner again. The ET 403 was a four-unit electric train with tilting technology. Since 1991 the ICE Service with ICE 1 (Class 401) is used for high speed service. However, it needed 60 years to break the record speed of the first "Flying Hamburger" from 1933 on the run Hamburg-Berlin.
The Swiss SBB and the Dutch NS developed the RAm TEE (Dutch: DE) for the routes Zurich-Amsterdam and Amsterdam-Brussels-Paris. These trains were sold in 1977 to the Canadian Ontario Northland Railway (ONR) and served on the line Toronto–Moosonee as the Northlander. From 1961, SBB used the SBB RAe TEE II, a four system electric streamlined trainset for the TEE service.
Italy used pre-war trains and FS developed new trains such as the FS Class ETR 300 ("Settebello", FS Class ETR 401, ETR 450 (Pendolino) and ETR 500.
In the United Kingdom streamline services ended on the outbreak of WWII. During the war the LNER and LMS streamlined locomotives had part of their streamlining removed to aid maintenance. By the late 1940s and early 1950s the state of the railways was improving as war damage and delayed maintenance work cleared more mainline track for high speed running.
The first experiments with diesel streamliner services in the United Kingdom were the Blue Pullman trains introduced in 1960 and withdrawn in 1973. These provided 90 mph (140 km/h) luxury business services, but were marginally successful and ran little faster than mainstream services. The Blue Pullman was followed by research into streamlined trains and tilting trains which led to the iconic Intercity 125 (Class 43) offering 125 mph (201 km/h) train services across the United Kingdom.
After WW2, Japanese railroads favored multiple unit type trains, even on its mainlines. In 1949, Japanese National Railways (JNR) released Series 80 EMUs which were used for long distance trains for the first time as multiple unit trains. The lead coaches of Series 80 EMUs built after 1950 incorporated a streamlined design. In 1957, Odakyu Electric Railway released 3000 series EMUs. The exterior design was developed using a wind tunnel intended for aircraft. Odakyu 3000 marked the world speed record at the time (145 km/h) for a narrow gauge train. Multiple Unit trains were now proven suitable for long distance trains by the JNR Series 80 and for high speed trains by the Odakyu 3000. These experiences led to the development of the first shinkansen, the 0 Series. 0 series were strongly influenced by the Odakyu 3000, and also developed using a wind tunnel. The lead coaches of the 0 series were developed using a Douglas DC-8 for a reference. At a speed of 200 km/h, the aerodynamic style of the 0 series had a substantial effect on reducing air resistance.[7][8]
Worldwide many, if not most, high speed passenger trains are now streamlined, and speeds continue to rise as high-speed rail services become the normal long distance rail service.
Early versions of the PCC streetcars were referred to as Streamliners' in North America.
Many engineers tried to incorporate aerodynamics into the shape of cars in the 1920s, and some entered production. First such automobile (a prototype) to have a tear-drop shape and have the wheels within the body was the Persu automobile[9] (1922), with a drag coefficient of 0.22, built by Romanian engineer Aurel Persu.
Despite its smooth curves, the original Volkswagen Beetle has a Cd of 0.48, which is similar to many trucks and SUVs. On the other hand, many aerodynamic styling features are the result of feedback from aerodynamic optimization by testing in wind tunnels and nowadays, computer modeling. Such features include the teardrop blunt nose and tapered trailing body, rounded corners, smooth body transitions (such as hood-to-windshield and windshields-to-roof, as in Kammback designs), rear wheel skirts, and removal of protruding features (integrated headlamps, hood ornaments, rear-view mirrors).
Bicycle fairings help to streamline the vehicle and rider. Velomobiles, completely enclosed bicycles or tricycles, take streamlining even further. It is streamliner bicycles that have set many HPV land records.[10]
Many buses adopted a stylish streamline look in the 1930s[11] with tests showing that streamlined design reduced fuel costs.[12]
Outright motorcycle land-speed record-breaking streamliners:
Streamlining was applied to the art deco style auto/passenger ferry Kalakala in the 1930s. The Kalakala operated until 1967 and was scrapped early in 2015.
Camping (caravan) trailer manufacturers used streamlining to make trailers easier to tow. Current and past manufactures include Airstream, Avalon, Avion, Boles Aero, Bonair Oxygen, Curtis Wright, Silver Streak, Spartan, Streamline, and Vagabond.
Inspired by the streamlined trains, and especially the Burlington Zephyr, Roland Stickney designed a diner in the shape of a streamlined train called the Sterling Streamliner in 1939.[13] Built by J.B. Judkins, a firm that also made custom car bodies,[14] the Sterling and other diner production ceased in 1942 at the beginning on American involvement in World War II.
Two Sterling Streamliners remain in operation: the Salem Diner at its original location in Salem, Massachusetts and the Modern Diner in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Another Sterling Streamliner lies abandoned on Hix Bridge Road in Westport, Massachusetts.

Can you talk to my dead dog?
Do animals have souls and are they the same kind as human souls?
Two days of meet and greet at the Berkeley Book Fair pushed my boundaries in new directions well out of my comfort zone! Most interesting were the patrons. I watched passers-by study the banner hanging from the front of my half of the table like an enlarged business card: Animal Chaplain Interfaith Minister, Pet Loss Bereavement Counselor, Intuitive Animal Communicator, Animal Reiki. One or another of those lines drew people in to ask questions.
Many just wanted to share their story about the death of a loved animal. It can be healing to have someone listen and validate that grief over a pets death is as strong as, and often deeper than, grief over a human loss. Probably half of the exchanges I had with people over those two days were on-the-spot brief pet loss counseling sessions. It helps so much to be heard, and understood. I thought, perhaps this is why Im here, even though I did sell a few copies of my book, Hand in Paw.
Some of the other questions were for clarity, and others were challenges. Here are some of them, and my attempts at answers:
Yes, if the animal is willing. The soul/spirit being lives on after the body dies, much like energy can change form but not be destroyed. The love and connection live on after the body dies.
Its a personal choice. Refraining from eating other animals may be the ideal, but some are unable for any number of reasons or circumstances to do that. In David Michies book, The Dalai Lamas Cat, the HH Dalai Lama character gives a wonderful explanation, reminding his questioner that life forms also are harmed in the cultivation of vegetables. In the web of life, all things are connected. For me, the essential part is gratitude and giving thanks for the sacrifices and contributions of what we consume.
My understanding is that all beings have energy, spiritual essence, and are on a soul growth path of their own. It has been my experience talking with animals-in-spirit that a being can be born into bodies of different species including human depending on the lessons they need to learn (or help others learn). I dont get that there are kinds of souls, but there are degrees of experience and training, and different learning paths. So, yes. For me, a soul is a soul.
Reiki is universal healing energy, so the energy itself is the same. The application differs, though. Animals are more sensitive than humans, and have larger energy fields surrounding them. With animal Reiki, the practitioner doesnt do Reiki but offers it hands-off from an ego-neutral space. The animal may invite physical contact, such as coming close and indicating it would like touch, but the benefit is the same either way. The animal can accept as much or as little as it wants. That is why it works so well from a distance the animal can be in the same room or halfway around the globe.
My first response to this question was a startled alcohol is toxic for dogs. Recovering slightly, I said that Id work closely with a veterinarian, approaching the situation as one would with an alcoholic human. Id talk with the dog (and its human!) to try to discern the underlying reasons for the behavior. When this questioner passed by again, I learned this was a test question, based on the [incorrect] urban myth that Baron von Richthofens dog was addicted to beer. I later did some research and learned that the Red Barons dog was neither German shepherd nor beer addict. I can hear the questioner chuckling over tossing me a good one!
In short, some questions came from intellectual curiosity, a desire for information, from heart and soul yearning, and from an I dont believe in this and am going to test you stance. Its all okay, and helps me grow into being clearer, more succinct, and faster on my feet.
The Fair provided a flow of interaction. Fascinating talks with other authors, trading marketing tips and techniques, observing others different levels of confidence with this sort of endeavor. Gratitude to tablemate Marietta Harris and to my granddaughter, outgoing Katy, for their help and support.
The sensory experience was rich, as well. Clouds and fog covered our little street until some bundled in parkas and hoodies. From sailing on San Francisco Bay, I knew afternoon winds would blow clouds away, then it would be sunny. What came was more like a gale, sending us scrambling for heavy objects to hold down cards and flyers. Later we unpacked the big umbrellas wed put away when it was windy, to shade us from the heat. As close as Berkeley comes to seasons all in one day.
More of the questions next time.

AAI Joins Coalition Letter on Legislative Response to White Nationalist Violence
Posted by Kai Wiggins on September 04, 2019 in Blog
In responding to the scourge of white supremacist violence, Congress should not harm the very communities it's trying to protect.
On September 4, 2019, the Arab American Institute joined the ACLU, Brennan Center for Justice, Color of Change, Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, Muslim Advocates, South Asian Americans Leading Together (SAALT), and Southern Poverty Law Center in a letter to relevant House and Senate committees on the appropriate legislative response to white supremacist violence.
The letter urges members of Congress to prioritize oversight and data collection over misguided proposals that would jeopardize the civil rights and civil liberties of targeted or vulnerable communities. In particular, the letter states the coalition's opposition to creating a new federal crime of "domestic terrorism," reintroducing countering violent extremism (CVE) programs, and expanding surveillance authorities.
The full text of the letter can be read here.

I hate people who don't paint their armies, hate them with all my guts. Beats me how they value other things over painting, like eating or brushing teeth.
I had 2 boxes of them, and never put a second ball at the waist - didnt even realise it was a thing!
2000 points for 6th edition is optimum. But unit sizes need to be thought about properly
I very much approve of this development!
Remember, orcs and goblins can combine to make a 2000 pt army easy enough...

The ancient Knicks returned home from their West Coast trip with lousy MRI exam news for their big men Tyson Chandler and Kurt Thomas.
Chandler, who hoped he would be back for Wednesday's game vs. Orlando, took an MRI exam on his neck and it revealed a bulging disk in his cervicalspine and he will miss approximately one more week.
Thomas, 40, got the game ball Monday night after the win in Utah and he also got bad news on his right foot. Tuesday's MRI exam and Cat-scan showed he has an acute stress reaction surrounding a chronic stress fracture and will miss 2-4 weeks. The longer end of the timetable for Thomas would put him out until the playoffs, if he returns at all.
X-rays before the Utah game revealed Thomas had a bone spur and was given the license to play and was one of the fourth-quarter heroes in the West Coast finale, logging 26 minutes, three blocks, six points and three rebounds. Rasheed Wallace originally had a stress reaction, too, in his foot and never returned as it developed into a Jones fracture.
Chandler missed the final three games of the road trip due to bruised left knee, then the Knicks said he had a strained muscle in his neck. Thomas started in Chandler's place the first two games but now must rest his foot. Kenyon Martin started at center Monday night and will do so again Wednesday vs. Orlando.
After last night's game, Thomas said of his conditon, "Everything feels fine but my foot."

In a week we have gone from senseless SIB to a more moderate approach. We actually had one full SIB-less day. It was short, but it was also truly lovely.
This is all, we suppose, anxiety over some unnamed event, incident, feeling, concern, fear, perception that J cannot express clearly. That's what the amount of band-aids J has been using tells us. He made over 20 packets (half of them the green with the seven strips, two of which go to his forehead, and half of them the red that only has five for thumb and fingers…) and he's down to about three. This is since Sunday…that is a lot of bandaids. On Monday I ordered a ridiculous amount of bandages from an online medical supply outlet, and they were delivered yesterday. The logic behind this (aside from making people wonder what the heck goes on in our household) is that if we have more than we need, we will need less. The same logic that applies when one keeps the ER-ready bag with extra blankets, clothes, etc….if you're packed, you won't go. If you don't pack, the kid will be so sick that you will have to reupholster your car. J opened the box of boxes of bandages and his reaction was similar to the happiest child on Christmas morning. Go figure!
In the middle of all this head-hitting I've noticed that J shakes his head as if to stimulate himself. It's not a strong shake, nor is it consistently there…it just, once in a while, happens when he's done hitting himself. I was telling Dada that, as a child, I used to do that if I felt a bit of a headache. I wanted to see if it REALLY hurt. (Hey, no judging…I was a weird child, and this has been firmly established over the time I've been writing this blog!) It's almost as if he wants to make sure he has hit himself hard enough. He doesn't say it hurts, but when I've offered him liquid acetaminophen, he's accepted the dose.
It could be, maybe, that his wisdom teeth are coming in. It could be that he is just overindulging in the self-stimulation that is all too common in people with ASD. It could be that he is upset. We just can't seem to figure out EXACTLY what the root of this is.
Right now, as I type this, I can hear him giggling as he listens to music and looks at the cute little spider that is frozen on his TV screen. Last night we finally got his helper to stay with him for a while. We had hoped to do this on Saturday, but he was too over-stimulated for us to feel comfortable leaving her alone with him. Instead we stayed home and focused on him, and he slowly leveled off nicely. Yesterday he was happy to see her, eager to see us leave, and was deemed only "slightly obstinate" in a text message response to my query about how he was doing. He was happy to see us come home, and there were no demands for extra pay, and she didn't run to her car as if in fear of being followed. Of course, she might have been playing cool.
So…definite semi-progress. We are trying our best. And we have acquired what we refer to as Def-Con J boards from the lovely people at Amazon.com. Of course, these are really Autism Supplies And Developments PECS Feelings Boards, but it's more apropos of the absurdity that is our day-to-day life if we alter them to have mustaches, goatees, and full (ok…somewhat sparse) heads of hair to help him recognize himself, and we call them Def-Con J boards. What can be more effective, when out on errands, to get a text from the helper saying DF5? You will leave your cart in the middle of the store and run out while yelling beat to quarters, and you might be black-listed at that particular store, but you will know what to expect as you pull up to your driveway.
Now, of course, I'm working on getting J to understand that he doesn't ALWAYS have to be HAPPY. SAD, FRUSTRATED, MAD are totally acceptable feelings if they are expressed and we are allowed to help him work through them. I know, I know…too abstract a concept? Maybe? Well…it has to be taught. J shouldn't feel pressured to ALWAYS be happy. J should know that we love him no matter what, and we want to help him through whatever is bothering him, and being upset is totally fine.
There you go…
We plod on…
with the occasional bounce inserted for good measure…

This fall, three USF museum studies students and faculty alighted eastward. They participated in a series of events that allowed them to share their expertise and gain more perspectives on our field. In September and October, graphic designer and current student Elinoar Almagor was part of two National Design Award events. At the first, held in Washington DC, she and her husband, Gadi Amit, winner of a 2013 Cooper Hewitt award for product design, lunched with Smithsonian Secretary G. Wayne Clough and First Lady Michelle Obama.
A month later, also in Washington, Professor Paula Birnbaum addressed scholars, museum professionals and graduate students at the annual Feminist Art History Conference at American University. She shared her research on the sculptor Chana Orloff (1888-1968), one of the best-known artists of the School of Paris and a pioneering woman in the early Israeli art world. Orloff played a major role in setting forth the heroic national identity of the new Israeli state by creating monuments to fallen soldiers, portraits of important figures and helping to found the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. Paula will also speak about Orloff's powerful representations of motherhood as part of the Feminist Art Project's session on "The M Word: the Representation of the Maternal in Art and Visual Culture" at the College Art Association Annual Meeting in Chicago on February 15, 2014.
Marjorie Schwarzer delivered the 27th Annual Julia Babson Lecture at Montclair Art Museum (MAM) in New Jersey on October 10, 2013. The nation's first art museum to focus on American and Native American artists, MAM is celebrating its 100th anniversary. In a lively lecture, Marjorie described MAM's beginnings as a late 19th century artists' colony that became a leafy suburb known for its progressive ideals. Marjorie called on MAM to consider how its unique history can counterpoint today's suburbs and their indistinct and soulless chains of franchises. In December, working with the Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority, Marjorie goes to the United Arab Emirates to conduct an a week-long workshop in the role of museums in society. USF management professor Mouwafac M Sidaoui will join her for the final day of the workshop when Emirati students will present exhibitions on the subject of Emirati identity within a global society.

EastEnders star Patsy Palmer has denied reports that she has quit the soap, confirming that she has "every intention" of returning to Walford.
The actress - Albert Square favourite Bianca Jackson - is currently on maternity leave after welcoming the arrival of her fourth child Bertie last month.
In a new interview with Hello magazine published today, Palmer revealed that her EastEnders contract recently expired and that she wishes to "enjoy every minute" with her newborn son for the time being.
The star's comments have since led to suggestions that she has decided to leave her role on the programme due to the controversial baby swap storyline currently airing on screen.
However, in a statement released this morning, Palmer insisted: "I have not quit EastEnders over the current storyline as reports suggest. My contract came to an end soon after I gave birth to Bertie and, as I have already said, I just want to spend every minute with him.
"I love EastEnders and have every intention of returning when the time is right for me and the show."
Bianca's departure storyline airs this week as she ends up in prison over an attack on Connor Stanley (Arinze Kene), the secret lover of her mum Carol.

I just sent Daisy, Bella, and Alice an all clear notice. That perspective I lost? It snuck back in while I was sleeping.
TLH will not turn into the Hudson Stalker Channel: all Hudson, all anxiety, all the time. The perspective came in with all boots on the ground, ready to kick butt. The creepy existential angst (about my ability to provide good horse care) got totally creamed.
It was AWESOME.
Whoa. Please hold. My blog editor is going crazy with tag suggestions after auto-filtering the above paragraph. It wants me to tag this post as Lindsay Lohan, Wall Street, and Fraud. It also believes it's urgent I post a link to this super important article. Who knew the return of my perspective would be related to current events?

Geez, I'm already getting burned out of DQ Swords. I'm got about 20 hours so far. I can't believe how bad the controls are when trying to make accurate slashes in diagonal directions. I've been reading some forums on the game and some folks even suggest wearing a wrist brace to keep from moving your wrist too much. It's pretty outrageous. The other thing I can't believe is how difficult some of the 'bonus' bosses are at the end of the game. Some seriously extreme difficulty. Spend most of the time just healing yourself and trying to block crazy attack patterns in order to win. I hope not a whole lot of this stuff gets put into Dragon Quest X.

Our stop in Cappadocia, specifically Goreme was just what we expected; amazing geography and history but highly exploited by tourism. It did lend itself for some fantastic hikes and pictures. Kaymakli, an ancient underground city 8 stories deep was definitely a highlight. We avoided the tours, just boarded the local bus and hired a local guide who made the tour of this city very interesting.
Continuing our journey south and after an overnight bus we found ourselves in the Turquoise Mediterranean coast which felt amazing after such a long road trip. We headed to the port of Kaş, and before boarding our gullet (a wooden sailboat), strolled the streets of this quaint little fishing town which we totally fell in love with. The gullet crew had lunch ready for us and before sunset we set sail, starting a 3 day cruise along the western Mediterranean coast which turned out to be a fantastic trip. Our daily activities included exploring bays and islands, reading, swimming and enjoying great food prepared by the gullet crew. We disembarked in the port of Fethiye where we visited a carpet merchant that came highly recommended before heading back to Istanbul.
