Meeker students get war
May 10, 2003
Jeanie Davidovich wants to help little children when she gets big.
Lots of people don't have beds to sleep in or food to eat, even though she has those luxuries.
That bothers Jeanie, so she wants to do something about it.
Jeanie, a third-grader at Meeker Elementary School, got her chance this year to help the needy. She and her classmates packed up food and household items and sent them to other kids in Afghanistan.
Their inspiration to help others came from talking to a man 7,500 miles away from their Greeley home. They met him for the first time this week.
Capt. Diggs Brown, a Green Beret in the Army, has been speaking to Caroline Street's students through e-mail for the past seven months.

Brown, who has been serving in remote locations in Afghanistan as part of the war on terrorism, taught students about the war and about his missions overseas.
"It's cool to meet an Army person in the war. I never met one before," said 9-year-old Andre Bennett.
"It's like, he was in a faraway land but then he comes to see us."
Street, who teaches a combined third- and fourth-grade class, began corresponding with Brown through Greeley's recruiter for the National Guard. Street wanted someone to help her teach the difficult subject of war to her students.
Sgt. Troy Blum told her about Brown, who is from Fort Collins and works in the Greeley area.
Through e-mails, Brown explained that the war is not just about fighting, and how there are good and bad people living in all countries.
Much of his mission was to help restore a city near Kabul, Afghanistan, and help the needy people.
When the Meeker students found out through his messages that other kids their age didn't have food to eat or books to read, they thought of a plan. They soon sent box loads of items to Afghanistan.
In return, Brown sent the girls scarves and the boys hats, which are part of the traditional clothing Afghan children wear.
The American flag that flew over Brown's post was also sent to the Meeker classroom.
"He was instrumental in helping me teach the children without frightening them," Street said. "When you know someone there and meet them, it seems more real to them. They better understand what's going on."
When they met this week, everyone had a class party. Homemade treats, along with red, white and blue streamers, filled the classroom.
Students – in patriotic clothing – read poems and thank-you cards to Diggs. Others gave him homemade gifts wrapped in construction paper.
Brown showed students a slide show of what the Army was doing to help the people.
Pictures of school material and food made the Meeker students felt that they really made a difference.
"That's why I want to be like Capt. Diggs when I grow up," 8-year-old Jeanie said.
"When you give somebody something, you see how it helps them. He helps people, a lot of people. I could do that, too."

To cope with the growing concerns of limited natural resources, sustainability, and the increasingly stringent legislation on industrial pollution and other environmental issues, remanufacturing has recently emerged as a viable approach of international importance in the US, China and Europe to drive sustainable manufacturing, promote conservation and more comprehensive utilization of energy and resources, and drive the business and society to embrace circular economy. Due to the arrival of Industry 4.0, Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems, cloud manufacturing, and so on, remanufacturing is in the process of undergoing a significant transformation to become more intelligent and automated. More strikingly, various artificial intelligence techniques, machine learning algorithms, and big data analytics are being researched and deployed into remanufacturing context, e.g., design for remanufacturing, advanced remanufacturing process, robotics in remanufacturing, critical failure prediction, inventory forecasting, resilient remanufacturing networks, closed-loop supply chain management, etc.
This special issue will focus publishing original research works that advance artificial intelligence and automation in the remanufacturing field, including service and maintenance, from various aspects that tackle product, process and system issues in remanufacturing. The aim is to report the state-of-the-art on relevant research topics and highlight the barriers, challenges and opportunities facing. It also welcomes studies that stimulate the research discussion of moving towards intelligent remanufacturing in a particular industrial sector.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
• Data-driven approaches to design for remanufacturing
• Big data analytics for in-use and service data exploitation
• Machine learning in critical failure (remaining life) prediction
• Simulation-based process design for remanufacturing
• Robotics and FMS for remanufacturing
• Scale-up methodologies for novel remanufacturing process
• Dynamic modeling and control for remanufacturing machinery under uncertainties
• Remanufacturing with precision, efficiency, and reliability
• Data-driven human factor study in remanufacturing
• Data mining for closed-loop supply chain performance improvement
• AI-based intelligent diagnosis and conditional monitoring in remanufacturing

This came up on my news feed from Jan 2014 and I'm sharing again as the feedback I received for this piece blew me away (and still does) and because I fell in love with it all over again as I read.
I miss the flash fiction circuit I belonged to. I know a few of the sites are back in business so I now have to find the time between essays and lesson obs to write for them. This piece has inspired me. Enjoy.
Simone's Night Off
I wander around, dressed for the occasion but no one sees me. But they know I'm there, can feel my presence for I am a Guardian Angel. I rest a comforting hand on heavy shoulders, I sooth a sick brow. I am only seen by those moving on upstairs as I lead them on their way. Tonight I am at an office…

While it is certainly true that the game of Blackjack favors the dealer over the player (if both you and the dealer bust, for instance, you're the one who loses), there are various things you can do to increase your odds of winning. These are relatively simple things and they are worth noting (and memorizing) since they are pretty much clear-cut "do's" and "don'ts" that won't require a lot of thinking or deliberating over. With so many things in life (and poker) tinged with ambiguity, it is sometimes a pleasure just to have some simple rules to follow!
ALWAYS: split 8's or 7's against a dealer's card of equal or lesser value.
ALWAYS: split 2's or 3's against a 4, 5 or 6.
ALWAYS: split aces.
NEVER: split 10's, 5's or 4's.
NEVER: split face cards.
B) If the dealer's up card is 6 or lower, stand on hard 13-16. Hit if his up-card is 7-Ace.
C) If the dealer's up-card is 2, 3, 7 or higher, stand on hard 12.

Hi all,
I've observed that the Magento Bundle contains an entity called Oro\Bundle\MagentoBundle\Entity\Product backed up by a DB table called orocrm_magento_product. After connecting a development OroCRM instance to a development Magento 1.x instance, and a successful initial synchronization followed by successful subsequent synchronizations, I've observed that the orocrm_magento_product db table remained empty.
Looking through the code base I couldn't observe too much code involving this entity Oro\Bundle\MagentoBundle\Entity\Product but I've seen that there is support for a datagrid, which does not show up anywhere in the navigation menu in the UI – and also I've noticed that his entity has API support.
I want to ask if I'm missing something, and if there are already built in possibilities in OroCRM to have this entity imported/synced with the Magento instance?
Or maybe this is something left at the responsibility of the solution providers to ensure the population of this entity records?
Thank you,
The forum 'OroCRM – How do I? Questions' is closed to new topics and replies.

Carrollton Xarelto Lawsuit Lawyer
Xarelto (rivaroxaban) is a blood thinning drug marketed by Bayer and Janssen Pharmaceuticals. The sales of this aggressively marketed drug total over $320 million. Prior to the United States Food and Drug Administration's approval of Xarelto in 2011, the anticoagulant Warfarin was the only drug approved to treat atrial fibrillation. Despites its phenomenal sales, Xarelto has been linked to an increased risk of serious bleeding, strokes, and clots in some patients.
Zinda Law Group is here to help if you or a loved one took Xarelto and suffered:
- Hemorrhagic stroke
- Gastrointestinal bleeding
- Severe bleeding requiring hospitalization
We have decades of experience in the industry and the resources to tackle even tough pharmaceutical companies. Our attorneys are available to help with your Xarelto lawsuit today, so contact us as soon as possible to protect your legal rights.
Xarelto Side Effects
A recent study conducted by the Department of Medicine at New York College Metropolitan Hospital Center found an increased bleeding risk among Xarelto patients who:
- Undergo hip surgery: The risk of serious bleeding doubles for hip surgery patients prescribed Xarelto.
- Take blood thinners while ill: Patients who are seriously ill face a threefold increase in the risk of bleeding events.
- Suffer from Acute Coronary Syndrome: Xarelto is believed to more than triple the risk of major bleeding among patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome.
Unlike the drug Warfarin, Xarelto has no counteracting drug that can reverse bleeding events. This significantly increases the risk of serious injury and death in patients taking the drug.
Thousands of lawsuits are currently pending against the makers of Xarelto and more are soon to follow. Some cases are being condensed into multidistrict litigation actions that could simplify proceedings and lead to greater awards. Anyone who has experienced a Xarelto injury or lost a loved one due to the drug should act soon as they have a limited time in which to lawfully bring an action against the dangerous drug manufacturers.
Could You Qualify for Compensation?
The attorneys at Zinda Law Group are currently evaluating the cases of potential victims who suffered harmful effects after taking the drug Xarelto. Some questions we will consider in assessing your eligibility for compensation include:
- Did you suffer a serious internal bleeding injury while taking Xarelto?
- Did your loved one die due to bleeding while taking Xarelto?
- Did the injury require hospitalization?
- Did the injury cause death?
- When was Xarelto prescribed?
- How long have you been on Xarelto?
Our firm will thoroughly assess your potential case and provide you with an explanation as to your legal rights and potential for compensation. We are currently accepting injured Xarelto patients and those who have lost loved ones while on Xarelto in Carrollton and across the state of Texas.

Open, Public, Green Spaces
By 2030, enhance and encourage diverse uses of and investment in Hawai'i's abundant public, open, and green spaces as well as cultural sites, and increase community-based partnerships and efforts for stewarding them.
Access to green and public spaces can enhance quality of life for communities. Open, public, and green spaces are each unique; however, they are defined as undeveloped land that is accessible to the general public and benefits the community as a whole. Equitable access to and distribution of open, public spaces can contribute to community well-being, connection, and resident satisfaction. Usability, access and quality of parks are crucial to measuring green spaces. While these aspects are captured in holistic measurements like the Trust for Public Land's Parkscore, data is only available for Honolulu County and there are no similar metrics for neighbor islands. There is also a growing interest in quantifying the value of public space through recreation and leisure time to demonstrate the importance of continued investment. In the Hawai'i context, this target includes green and blue spaces from mauka to makai, focusing on state and county beach and green parks, hiking trails, camping and community facilities, cultural sites, and other publicly owned and available spaces. Modes within public spaces can include walking, hiking, hunting, camping, swimming, paddling, sports, and cultural and place-based stewardship. Access to public space and amenities affect community health and a sense of belonging through facilitating access to physical activity, recreation, and gathering.
Park Acreage
While parks vary based on amenity, location and size, Hawai'i's parks also include diverse characteristics ranging from beach parks, city parks, dog parks and recreation specific parks. To track accessibility of park provisions across the state, a universal metric for the target measures total acreage per capita. This metric is balanced with tracking urban density in the Land Use Impact target to show that as urban areas increase in density, open and green spaces are maintained.
State Parks and Historic Sites
Figure 1: The above chart details the total acreage of state parks and historic sites tracked over time.

Figure 2: This graph demonstrates availability of parks as proportion of county park acreage per capita for each of the four counties.

Parks provide important spaces for exercise and connecting to nature for physical and mental well-being. Studies show that parks can invigorate local economies, encourage physical activity, and help bring neighborhoods together. The Trust for Public Land's ParkScore® index is a comprehensive rating system developed to measure how well U.S. cities are meeting the need for parks. Using an advanced GIS (Geographic Information System), ParkScore® provides in-depth data to guide local park improvement efforts and identifies which neighborhoods and demographics are underserved by parks and how many people are able to reach a park within a ten-minute walk. Cities can earn a maximum ParkScore® of 100.
Figure 3: The chart above details the Parkscore for Honolulu County and offers a snapshot of comprehensive metrics to track access and provisions of facilities. In addition to the total score of 49.3 out of a possible 100 points, the Parkscore also ranks Honolulu in comparison to all other major cities across the country. (Source: Trust for Public Land)
Census Blocks with Highest Levels of Park Need
Figure 4: The map breaks down a needs assessment based on census block to express areas within urban Honolulu with access to parks and highlights areas with the greatest need.

Budget and Money Invested in Parks and Recreation
Measuring the quality of green space provision also includes quantifying the quality of parks by tracking investment in upkeep and maintenance. To account for the varying communities across the four counties, tracks financial investment per resident for each county. For example, in 2016 Honolulu County allocated $65.08 per resident for the maintenance and operation of all county parks. By contrast, the city of San Francisco spends $133.31 per resident to maintain comparable park system with similar park acreage.

L'Amour Immortel reinterprets this classic tale from a contemporary perspective.
A beautiful, bewitching ghost loses her heart to an honest, good-natured man and resolves to save him from evil forces, even at the cost of her own eternal afterlife. The lovers traverse a shadowy, mysterious underworld in their fight for love and freedom. Gripping, thrilling and passionate, this tale of forbidden love brings out the most beautiful of human values through the poignancy of a timeless ghost story.

Phillips says farewell to county council
Following a 16-year tenure, Sussex County District 5 Councilman Vance Phillips this week concluded his last council meeting.
"Today is my last day on county council after so many years," said Phillips on Dec. 16. "During the course of this meeting, it has been a great joy to see so many faces. Everybody in this room means so much to me."
A reception was held following the meeting, culminating Phillips' time on council. Those in attendance included former council president Dale Dukes; state Reps. Ron Gray, Dave Wilson, Rich Collins and Tim Dukes, and former county administrators Bob Stickles, Joe Conaway and David Baker.
Phillips thanked all those in attendance for their guidance and friendship over the years.
"As I look around this room, it just fills my heart with joy to know that people like you care about me," he said. "When I was injured and in the hospital, it was so many of you that prayed me up out of that hospital bed… Just day-by-day I felt God's hand in it all. It was because so many people were praying for me."
Councilman Sam Wilson — who had driven to Philadelphia and watched Phillips take his first steps following the 2011 crash that occurred while Phillips was conducting a solo flight in a glider-like aircraft — thanked Phillips for his advice and friendship.
"I'm sure going to miss him," he said.
"Thank you for all the years you've served this county and served it well," added Council President Michael Vincent.
Tim Dukes presented Phillips with a tribute from the House of Representatives, recognizing his years of service.
"I have appreciated working with you," said Tim Dukes.
Sussex County Land Trust Board Member Dennis Forney thanked Phillips for his support in preserving areas for Sussex County's non-voting residents, including the deer, squirrels and skunks.
"We've always appreciated your dedication to open spaces in Sussex County," he said. "We preserve thousands of acres in Sussex County, and we're not done by a long shot. We appreciate your help, Vance."
Phillips praised non-profit groups for providing support to county residents, which he said helps keep government small.
"Government cannot be everything to everybody," he said.
Phillips, who had hoped to stay on council, lost the Republican primary in September to Rob Arlett.
"Just for the record, I have no political ambitions. I am not interested in getting back into the fray," he said. "I want you all to embrace Rob Arlett. He is a fine gentleman. He is the kind of person I think is going to make a tremendous county councilman if we don't lose him to Congress or the U.S. Senate. Rob, I hope you will give us at least four years."
It was a tough day, said Phillips, noting that he had spent the majority of his Tuesdays in council chambers over the last 16 years. However, with the showing of support at the farewell, Phillips said he wouldn't shed any tears.
"It would be a disservice to have emotion other than joy right now," he said.

Wei Jianguo: Washington's "big stick" will inevitably hurt the US companies in China
- Date:2018-07-18
- Source:CCIEE
A few hours after the US government announced on July 6 that it will impose a tariff on $34 billion Chinese products, the office of the U.S. Trade Representative(USTR) immediately released the information regarding the process for applying for product exclusion. Under this process, U.S. stakeholders may request that particular products classified within a covered classification be excluded from the additional duties. All exclusion requests must be received by October 9, 2018 and the granted exclusion will last one year only. Three conditions must be proved before issuing the product exclusion: first of all, whether the particular product is available only from China; secondly, whether the imposition of additional duties on the particular product would cause severe economic harm to the requestor or other U.S. interests; and lastly, whether the particular product is strategically important or related to "Made in China 2025" or other Chinese industrial programs.
The reason behind the announcement of the product exclusion is that the US government does not want to hurt the US stakeholders. On the first list of the products that subject to the addition tariffs, 59% of the products are produced by multinational companies in China, more than 70% of them are processed by US companies in China and more importantly, these products are indispensable in the global industrial chain.
Can the product exclusion save American companies? Some of the products subject to the additional tariff are tourism products including suitcases, wallets, backpacks and sport shoes, which is a $31 billion market in the US and 87% of the products are imported from China. This is why the vice president of the US National Retail Federation, Jonathan Gold made it clear that he is against the trade war for the simple reason that he could not find enough alternatives from other countries. The American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai has urgently released the results of a survey, indicating that 69% of the US companies in China do not want the US government use additional tariffs as a leverage, and they do not want their companies to become an inspection object when applying for the product exclusion annually.
Undoubtedly, many US high-tech companies have maintained close strategic partnerships with China's industrial programs because they are optimistic about China's huge production potential and would like to form a longer-term cooperation with their Chinese counterparts. Even if they can apply for the product exclusion, the exclusion will only last for one year. The US government has pushed these elite companies into a dilemma and thus, they might follow Tesla to establish headquarters and production bases in China.
If the Trump administration expands the addition tariffs to $200 billion Chinese products, the losses brought to American companies will only grow bigger regardless of the subsidies they will get from the government. When that happens, the US companies will impose a stronger objection to the Trump administration. On the one hand, the American companies do not want to lose the huge consumption market of China. On the other hand, the business operation of the American companies in China is generally smooth despite some bumps and they cannot withstand the severe consequence of the China-US trade war.
We have also noticed that the US government and public opinion blame the so-called unfair treatment of the US companies in China for their declining return on investment. However, the declining return on investment of the US companies does not just happen in China, but also in Japan, Australia and Europe. Most of the American companies in China are optimistic about the long-term stability and sustainability of China's policies. They hope that China can maintain its pace of reform and opening up, pay more attention to the protection of intellectual property rights and ease market access.
According to the latest data from the Ministry of Commerce, the newly established foreign-invested enterprises in the first half of this year increased by 96.6% year-on-year. In the next five years, the number of foreign-invested enterprises is expected to maintain a double-digit growth. Correspondingly, China should build the world's best business environment sooner rather than later. The trade protectionism of the Trump administration goes against the will of the people. On the contrary, China will adhere to its opening up policy and defend the multilateral trade system.

The Political Economy of Macroeconomic Policy Reform in Latin America
The Distributive and Institutional Context
Eduardo Wiesner
Chapter 8: Peru: From Macroeconomic Volatility to Credibility Building
Eduardo Wiesner
Fairness perception impacts aggregate outcomes and individual attitudes. Alesina and Angeletos (2005, p. 963) I. PERU'S POLITICAL ECONOMY PREDICAMENT Why did it take a Fujimori to adopt a Vargas Llosa reform program in 1991 to bring Peru back from the depths of a Ϫ20 per cent GDP collapse in 1988–1989? Why did the Peruvian voters shun Vargas Llosa's proposed economic orthodoxy and elect an obscure Fujimori as their new president in 1991? What may explain Fujimori's volte face in adopting a rigorous stabilization program that engendered fast rates of growth in the mid-1990s and brought Peru back from the cold? And, finally, why was Alan García able to get elected again in June 2006? These questions seek to identify the conditions under which policy shifts come about from the most improbable sources. Cukierman and Tommasi (1998, p. 180) point out that The history of public policy contains several episodes in which structural reforms or important economic or foreign policy shifts were implemented by parties or policy makers whose traditional position was to oppose such policies. Argentina under (Peronist) Menem, Peru under Fujimori, and Bolivia under (populist) Paz Estenssoreo underwent profound market-oriented economic reforms. The reasons why apparently only Fujimori could have adopted Vargas Llosa's program may have been because a large segment of Peruvians, particularly the low income groups, felt that they could trust Fujimori to protect their interests against what they largely perceived as an 'unfair'1 system. In May 2006 the voters preferred Alan García in...

March 30, 2020 - Latest: What has happened to markets this year? by Darius McDermott
9th September 2013
This week sees the FTSE 100 listed Kingfisher, Morrisons and Next update the market. We look at what stockbrokers are recommending writes Philip Scott.
Wednesday sees half year results arrive from B&Q owner Kingfisher. Over the past 12 months, its shares have surged 46%, and by 40% in the past six months alone, in part boosted by a further recovery in the UK housing market. The warm summer is expected to help the DIY retailer report near flat profits year-over-year. Pre-tax profit of £362m on a consensus basis is forecast, a 2.5% decline on last year says Keith Bowman, equity analyst, Hargreaves Lansdown Stockbrokers.
He says: "Accompanying management comments in relation to the health of consumers potentially provide a point of interest, whilst the board may again update investors with regard to its 'Creating the Leader' self-help plan, having recently entered Romania, its first new country in seven years."
In all and prior to the update, analyst opinion according to Bowman currently points towards a strong 'hold'. Share data website Digital Look, has the brokers edging towards a 'buy' recommendation while Sheridan Admans, investment research manager at The Share Centre, like Bowman has Kingfisher rated a 'hold'.
He says: "Good weather this summer and favourable comparisons to last year should see relatively good numbers for second quarter sales and earnings. Investors will seek the management's views and the likely impact on sales of a recovering UK economy and positive data from Europe. Updates on new store openings from its Screwfix business will be welcome."
Morrison supermarkets report their half year results on Thursday. Aided by both pricing and marketing initiatives, recent industry data suggests that a further improvement in the rate of falling like-for-like sales should be reported. Over the past 12 months its shares are flat and during the last six months, they have edged up 11%. The broker consensus on Digital Look, is 'neutral' towards the shares while Admans is calling a 'hold'. For its part Hargeaves Lansdown Stockbrokers has the broker opinion ahead of the results pointing to a 'sell'.
Bowman says: "First quarter like-for-like or same store sales fell by 1.8% (2.6% including fuel), with the group's still comparatively small convenience store chain considered a hindrance. Pre-tax profit is expected to decline by 10% to just over £400m. Nonetheless, management is expected to update on current initiatives, including its previously announced partnership with online delivery company Ocado and on-going convenience store openings."
Fashion chain Next has enjoyed a 41% share price gain over the past and 21% the last six months. Digital Look's broker count has the shares pointing towards a 'neutral' stance but investors will expect to see good sales figures reflected into the underlying profitability from this update as the period covers the decent summer we have had this year says Admans, who has labelled the stock a 'hold'. He adds: "Investors will also be expecting commentary on the health of the UK retail market and an update on sales guidance for the full year."

Taylor Swift Jealous Of Harry Styles?
Taylor Swift was not jealous of Harry Styles and the positive reviews he received for Dunkirk, despite a report that was published exactly one year ago today. Just about a week after the film's release, Gossip Cop debunked a made-up story that claimed she was envious of his acting success. At the time, we noted Swift was focusing on her music, and with her new album Reputation and world tour currently in full swing, it's clear our information was 100 percent accurate.
On July 29, 2017, Celeb Dirty Laundry posted an article titled, "Taylor Swift Jealous Of Harry Styles' Movie Success." Pointing to Dunkirk and Styles's "stellar reviews," the website set up its manufactured premise by stating without any proof that Swift had been unsuccessfully trying to "break into films for many years." The blog noted that the films Swift appeared in received, at best, "middling or negative reviews." Again, with no evidence whatsoever to back up its claim, the outlet maintained that since "Swift never quite got over the Harry Styles breakup, this has to sting for her" to see her ex-boyfriend receiving "all the critical acclaim and box office success that she always wanted."
Of course, as of right now, Styles has no film projects lined up, while Swift was recently cast in a movie version of Cats, alongside Jennifer Hudson, James Corden and Ian McKellen. But as we reported 12 months ago today, there is no rivalry, and Swift wasn't "jealous" of Styles's movie success. And contrary to the baseless claim, the singer-songwriter has clearly gotten "over" Styles, since Swift and Joe Alwyn have been dating for more than a year and a half now. Throughout that time, however, she's been focused on her music, which again has showcased her star power.
In an article about how Swift's album Reputation sold more than 2 million units, Forbes wrote that she's "both the most famous and the most successful recording artist on the planet." Meanwhile, the music bible Rolling Stone called Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour "her finest yet." And as soon as she ends her recording-breaking tour, Swift will begin production on Cats.
As Gossip Cop has mentioned before, we occasionally go back to articles we debunked 365 days earlier to remind readers how claims made one day by tabloids and websites often don't hold up over time. In this instance, CDL simply had a false narrative it wanted to push and absolutely no facts or sources to back up its claim that Swift was jealous of Styles's acting career. A year ago we proved the premise was flawed, and the passage of time has only further bolstered how the blog's article was a complete fabrication.

All Martin County beaches with lifeguards are open Tuesday.
They were closed Monday after what was being described as an "unknown airborne irritant" caused people to become sick over the weekend.
Researchers at FAU Harbor Branch took water samples at Bathtub Beach Monday and confirmed their samples showed red tide algae (Karenia Brevis) is present there.
However, Martin County said it was awaiting additional tests and results.
Should Martin County need to close beaches to swimming, lifeguards will post double red flags.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission confirmed earlier Monday that red tide was present in Palm Beach County.
Delray Beach said its beach will be open Tuesday.
All Palm Beach County beaches from Lake Worth Beach north to the Martin County line will remain closed on Wednesday. Lifeguards and staff at Palm Beach County beaches reported continued irritation, according to Palm Beach County Public Affairs Department.

Gold futures have been getting hammered in the last few days (silver too) while stocks have been rebounding nicely back nearly to the 2012 highs we saw in September-October. Those who sold stock during the November slump and plowed into gold have definitely had a rough couple of weeks.
Looking at the charts, Business Insider (borrowing from Mark Dow) labeled this a breakdown in the correlation between gold and the S&P 500. This isn't exactly a revelatory take. But the argument seems to imply that this is a break from the norm – that is, that this current move of Gold down and stocks up breaks a strong history of correlation between the two.
And this got us thinking… Watching the correlations between various asset markets is one of our pastimes, so we decided to check it out by looking at the rolling 30-day and rolling 250-day correlations between gold futures and S&P 500 futures (based on daily closing price):
You can see the 30-day correlation falling from above 0.6 to below 0.2 at the right end of the chart, showing how far that correlation has fallen in last month. (Disclaimer: past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.) But looking at the bigger picture, it's clear that the idea that there's a strong historical correlation between gold and the S&P 500 isn't supported by the evidence. The 30-day correlation bounces back and forth between extremes, while the long-term average tends to hang right around zero.
This year has sported a higher rolling 1-year correlation than at any point in the past decade, but it doesn't hold up to argue that this represents a break with the longer-term trend. If anything, a sustained decline in the correlation between gold and stocks would be very normal, indeed.

If you've been around me enough you know that I'm crazy about my white sheets, white towels and anything else white, and I'm equally as dedicated to keeping them that way.
I've stained up white shoes, and just last week I dyed a white towel light pink (surely I'm not the only one), but neither of these things are as concerning to me as they typically would be because of this recipe:
I now use this all-natural brightening-alternative and it has relieved my anxiety when it comes to maintaining the integrity of my household fabrics, as well as my blouses that I spill coffee down nearly every morning.
What you'll need
10 drops of lemon essential oil
1 cap full of Mrs. Meyer's Laundry Detergent
1 cup of baking soda
32 oz. of Hydrogen Peroxide
1 pot of hot water
a bathtub or a big bucket
What you'll do
Start by filling your bathtub with enough room temperature water to completely immerse your bedding, or whatever fabric you're removing stains from. I've done this most recently with bedding, a bathing suit, and a pair of white vans and have been successful with each.
After filling your bathtub or bucket, boil your pot of water. When the water begins to boil, remove it from the burner, add your lemon essential oil and laundry detergent, and stir.
Side-note: the aroma in my apartment after doing this is always outrageous.
Pour this mixture into your bathtub, and then pour in the hydrogen peroxide and baking soda. Take a big spoon (or a shampoo bottle or something) and stir the mixture around. Put your fabric in the bathtub and leave it overnight. I truly apologize. You'll have to use spare sheets or sleep on the couch, or wait to wear that blouse, but it will be worth it.
The following morning drain your tub, wring the material, and throw it in the wash as if putting it through a normal cycle.
When you take it out of the dryer, it will be perfect, your bathtub will probably be pretty clean as well, and I can only assume you will sleep sound on starch-white sheets or tred in bright sneakers. Either sounds fun.

Kiel University has an eventful history spanning more than 350 years. It started off as a state school, overcame upheaval and crises, finally developing into a successful international research centre.
Kiel University is dedicated to research-based teaching and learning. Therefore, the development of new teaching approaches is evolving constantly at the interfaces between research from the different scientific disciplines. Students from all over the world benefit from this: research results are quickly integrated into programme curricula and our academic staff is trained in-state-of-the-art teaching methods.
The CAU is Schleswig-Holstein's only fully-fledged university with a major focus on research. Over time, four dynamic priority research areas have systematically developed which are based on strong disciplines interacting together - Marine Science, Life Science, Societal and Cultural Change, and Nano Surface & Interface Science. Each individual research area makes a substantial contribution towards dealing with at least one of the grand challenges of our time.
The CAU is embedded in an international network of scientific, cultural, political and economic contacts and partnerships. This way, the University became a vibrant member of the scientific community and the society, which provide important impulses for CAU's productive development in return.

Studying at the University of Kiel is like the weather in Kiel.
It's a great university with serene learning environment.
I enjoyed the chance of studying two bachelors at the same time, it enabled me to focus on those things I really wanted to. Organisation anyway was complicated sometimes, due to overlaps in the schedule. But you choose your own timetable, which is pretty nice, because you are quite flexible and can work beside your studies. Teaching quality is good I would say. Especially...

Before it's too late
"Do it, do it now" said the old, "before it's too late"
"There's time" said I, "there's time yet"
"No" said the old, "do it now, now before it's too late"
"Yes, yes" said I
I had time, lots of time, so I thought
And I did do some, but not all.
And the some was good. But some I did not do
I did not say things I should have said
And I did not do things I should have done
And now it's too late
And now I am the old
And I say, "do it, do it now before it's too late"

Knox County State's Attorney candidate Erik Gibson came by the Oct. 4 Knox Conservatives meeting for a question-and-answer session concerning the race.
Gibson opened the session addressing a question concerning claims that he leaked information about the settlement of charges of unlawful discharge and sexual harassment against his boss and opponent, current Knox County State's Attorney John Pepmeyer.
"We're in a situation right now where I've been accused by several people of playing dirty politics by bringing this out, when realistically this has been sitting here for the last five years and has just become settled out," Gibson said.
He maintains the stance that he had no involvement and that the information was released in press releases made by the litigants after the settlements.
"First of all, I haven't said anything to the press about it, and haven't been asked about it, and so as far as that goes, I didn't leak anything," Gibson said.
After four and a half years working for Pepmeyer as an assistant state's attorney, Gibson believes that he would fulfill the position more effectively and be more active than his boss.
Gibson assured that his primary passion lies in trying cases and that he will continue to do so first hand as state's attorney.
"My impetus to run started when I had decided that I didn't like the direction in the office. My boss realistically, and not to be demeaning, does not work all that often. He doesn't come into work and he doesn't try cases," Gibson said.
Gibson spoke about the difficulties of challenging the incumbent Pepmeyer.
"Galesburg, like most small towns, is very small town oriented. Someone told me 'Galesburg is that town that never knew it became a city.' [Pepmeyer] has lived here his whole life; he has a name, family and reputation here. He was a private attorney here, so everybody knows him from back then," Gibson said.
Gibson has responded by going door-to-door in Galesburg and surrounding towns for the past two months to spread his name and familiarize voters with his stances.
As state's attorney, Gibson would look to implement several programs aimed at reducing jail crowding and eliminating the perpetuation of criminal behavior among disadvantaged youth.
One of Gibson's projects would be to implement the groundwork for; "a second chance program that I think we could get to within the first year. … There are a lot of federal grants out there now for keeping people out of prison. … Now, the second chance program, as I would like to implement it, would be based off of the idea that you want to keep first-time nonviolent felony offenders out of jail. This is a program that is being implemented all around the state."
Second chance programs have been shown to lower recidivism and act as revenue producers.
Gibson's plan would include the creation of a board composed "of community members … a representative sample of the county" selected by the state's attorney office.
Those who qualify for the second chance program would then have the option of paying a program fee and damages in order to then stand before the board instead of going to court.
"It gives the community a sense of ownership in the program. It also gives the community a chance to dictate what they want to be done. Ideally, what the program does is reduce the amount of cases in the court system, reduce the amount of people in the jail — it brings money in through the program fees and also redistributes the punishment into things more beneficial for the community," Gibson said.
Another project Gibson intends to pursue is greater attention to local youth, a portion of the population especially prone to developing tendencies that will lead to trouble later on in life.
"Something I think we could get the bare bones of it done by year one, and have something substantial in place by year four, is working on the intervention of the youth in Galesburg. I don't think we do enough of that. We need to work as a community to find that out," Gibson said.
Developing systems to support at risk youth include using resources already present to keep kids on track. Gibson has reached out to local pastors and school officials about "highlighting" children that appear to be struggling.
"Schools don't do a good enough job of highlighting kids, saying, 'I'm worried about this kid, he's late for school all the time, he says his mom sleeps in and doesn't get him ready for school, doesn't give him breakfast and he has to make it for his siblings.' Those are things where you're questioning their supervision at a certain point," Gibson said. "We've got Knox here in town, why can't we get Knox to look into some more mentoring for the younger kids?"
Gibson said that funds reallocated to preventing the youth from falling into a pattern of disintegration drastically reduces money spent on the backend dealing with them as adults.
"Additionally, I would like to do some small things, as simple as getting on the Internet. Have better communication between us and the outlying towns. There are a lot of grants out there that aren't being utilized here in Knox County that we can look into," Gibson said.
