I took every effort not to make this a "I NEVER POST ON MY BLOG ANYMORE, I'M SORRRRRRYYYYY" post, but what can I say. It is what it is. And I'm sorry. Strangely enough, I have a lot of blog ideas floating around in my head and I get ready to write one and then something will happen such as reading about the horrific tar sands spill in Arkansas, rampant political corruption, the certainty of global warming that will bring (is bringing) on an environmental apocalypse, very real and present dangers like the one in Boston, and I think Why bother posting anything? What's the point? It's so unimportant in the face of all of this global negativity.
Also, I will read books and articles of award winning writing that shush my creative mind with a You will never, ever write like these people so why bother? And that blog post? It's crap. Even if you remotely approach writing greatness, the global apocalypse will incinerate all paper books and kill all power sources, so unless all Kindles are solar charged, no one will be able to read it anyway. And that's assuming the sun is still able to shine after the apocalypse. So why bother? Really.
(Obviously, I need to limit my daily news reading to Kardashian related items only)
I like writing words here and placing them with pictures. I like the idea of putting things out into cyberspace in all of their banal glory just for the hell of it; it's akin to shoving a happy, yellow bird-ling out of the nest to see where it will go. And there are a thousand beautiful things I could be writing about that are real and true – just as real and true as dystopian earthscapes with little sun and lots of zombies who have eaten all the happy yellow bird-lings.
Things like: BABIES being born before the end of the year, WEDDINGS, new LOVE, mature LOVE, SPRING, FAMILY, FRIENDS, MOVIES and BOOKS and MUSIC reviews, KITTENS, TRAVEL stories, and on and on right up to the crazy SEUSSICAL FLOWERS growing out of the gifted succulent on my front porch. Good stuff!
Maybe now that I have written this much, it will open the doors to writing more. Maybe I had to get this off my chest – this dark cloud of worry about the future – so that I can focus on this most beautiful and magical present. Because, my goodness, there is a lot of goodness out there and I for one want to soak it up until the sun don't shine.

Berliner Philharmoniker
Text in englischer Sprache verfügbarKnown as one of the world's finest orchestras, Berliner Philhamoniker has performed and recorded the symphonies and choral works of the great classical music composers since it was founded in 1882. It has been led by a series of major conductors including Austria's Herbert von Karajan and England's Simon Rattle, who is to be succeeded in 2018 by Kirill Petrenko from Russia. The orchestra performs more than 100 concerts a year at the Berlin Philharmonie and tours internationally. It has made thousands of recordings and won Grammy Awards and Gramophone Awards.
The orchestra grew out of the Bilse Kapelle, which was established in the 1860s by Prussian composer and conductor Benjamin Bilse with 60 players. Entrepreneur Hermann Wolff oversaw its transition and growth as the Berliner Philharmoniker under the baton of Ludwig von Brenner and then of Hans von Bülow, who invited composers including Brahms, Strauss and Tchaikovsky to be guest conductors. Hans Richter, Richard Strauss and others stepped in after Von Bülow died until Arthur Nikisch from Hungary was named resident conductor. He was succeeded in 1922 by Wilhelm Furtwängler, who was imprisoned during World War II. The orchestra survived through the conflict although its venue was bombed and in time Furtwängler resumed with Romanian Sergiu Celibidach until he died in 1954. Von Karajan took the baton the following year to be followed in 1989 by Italian Claudio Abbado, who remained until Simon Rattle took over permanently in 2002.
Celebrated for its lyrical qualities, the Berliner Philharmoniker has played and recorded not only the classic compositions but also works by contemporary composers such as Debussy and Stravinksy. It has attracted guest conductors including Felix von Weingartner, Edvard Grieg and Gustav Mahler. Great artists who have performed with the orchestra include Daniel Barenboim, Yehudi Menuhin and Luciano Pavarotti.

Nick Vujicic Asks Paraguay's Congress to Kneel and Pray During Parliament Session
Motivational speaker and evangelist Nick Vujicic urged members of the congress in Paraguay to kneel for prayer during a parliament session in which he thanked God for the nation while asking God to forgive their sins. Vujicic was in the South American country last week as part of his month-long speaking tour where he shared his life's story and how his faith has led him to live a life without limits despite not having any limbs. During Vujicic's visit, the Paraguayan congress invited him to speak during one of their routine sessions where a few legislators were taken by surprise when he asked them to join in a moment of prayer.

My first trip to the Reston Town Center landed me at The Counter for dinner. From the website it looks like they are a California chain expanding to other states. I've never heard of it, but was really excited to build a custom burger once I took a look at their menu. There are all kinds of toppings to choose from. Some are expected like lettuce, tomatoes, and onions, but there are some really interesting options like black bean and corn salsa, spicy sour cream, and fried eggs to name a few. The one I put together (pictured below) was a 1/3 lb beef burger on a honey wheat bun, with spicy sour cream, sauteed mushrooms, scallions, gruyere cheese, jalapenos, lettuce, and tomato. It was REALLY good. Cooked medium – pink with a warm red center.
The burger was juicy and the toppings were fresh. If I didn't gobble a complementary slider while we were waiting on a table, I might have been able to eat more than half. I was probably also stuffed by all the sweet potato fries and onion strings we ordered. I'd definitely recommend either of those over regular fries. If it were at all possible, I would have tried a milkshake, but I definitely didn't leave enough room. Maybe next time!

Frequently Asked Questions from customers
If you're looking to get the most out of your "housing dollar," you should consider a manufactured home. Depending on the region of the country, construction costs per square foot for a new manufactured home are up to 50 percent less than a comparable site-built home, excluding the cost of land. All manufactured homes are built to specifications and codes that require the highest standards in every aspect of construction.
Most manufacturers now offer warranties to guarantee the quality, workmanship, and major heating and cooling systems of the home for a specified time, usually ranging from one to five years. This warranty also tells the homebuyer what to do if a problem arises. Makers of the appliances provided in the homes also provide either "full" or "limited" warranties. There are major differences among warranties and these warranties should be provided to you in writing. The retailer also has distinct responsibilities in the installation and servicing of the home. Be sure to have the retailer clearly state in writing its responsibilities and warranty coverage for the home's transportation and installation.
Just as there are choices when you buy a site-built home, there are a variety of financing options when you buy a manufactured home. If you are buying the home and land together, or plan to place the home on land you already own, some financial institutions offer traditional real estate mortgages with similar interest rates. Should you be purchasing the manufactured home separately from the land on which it will be located, the home will probably be financed as a personal property manufactured home loan, usually with a somewhat higher interest rate and the down payment amount will reflect the amount of the entire loan, including the home and land costs being financed. FHA-insured and Department of Veterans Affairs-guaranteed (called FHA and VA) loans are available to manufactured home buyers. These types of loans may offer lower interest rates or lower down payment requirements if available in your area. They require more paperwork during the credit application and approval process and, therefore, may take longer for approval than a conventional loan.
While both manufactured homes and modular homes are built in a factory environment, there are some differences between the two. The main source of difference between modular and manufactured homes is the code to which they are built. Manufactured homes are built to a federal HUD code, while modular homes are built to state or local residential building codes.
Factory built homes are built off site in a controlled manufacturing environment. Each home is built in sections, or modules, and then transported to the site where they are installed on permanent foundations, and completed by professional installers. Approximately 80% – 90% of factory built construction takes place indoors where materials are protected from the elements and a consistent workforce assembles the home in over 25 different stations.
Yes. Both manufactured and modular homes use the same or similar building materials as site built homes. In a cut section view, you'll see everything from roof trusses to structural floor decking and 2×4 or 2×6 exterior walls. In the ceilings you'll primarily see blown cellulose insulation, along with fiberglass batts in the wall cavities. Detailed specifications are available.

Notes for September
Coffee Mornings.
The Hospice Coffee morning was very well supported in the parish last Thursday. Toonagh Parents Association revived the event in Toonagh Hall and raised €560. In Ruan Community Centre a number of local ladies hosted the coffee morning and raised €305.
The organisers are grateful to those who did lovely home baking, helped out and those who donated and attended the event, the monies raised all going to Cahercalla Hospice.
Recent Death.
The death has taken place of Mary Wall, Willow Park, Ennis and Ballyea, sister of Bernie O'Loughlin, Kilcurrish, Fountain.
The u11 girls participated in a Blitz in Gurteen at the weekend, meeting Eire Og and The Banner and taking the spoils in both games.
They now look forward to their next Blitz in Eire Og at the weekend.
The u13's played Tulla on Friday evening and Wolfe Tones on Sunday, and winning both those games.
Great credit goes to all involved in having so many young girls involved in sports at this level and it is hoped they will continue well into their teens.
Flu and Pneumonia Vaccine.
The flu and pneumonia vaccinations are now available at the Corofin Medical Centre. Walk-in Clinics will run on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 2-3pm, and outside of these times by appointment. House visits can be arranged if required.
GAA Fundraising.
The organisers of the recent fundraiser have been very heartened at the response to their appeal. The object of the campaign is to raise funds to complete the development of the new Stand, meeting room and gym on the local pitch. The Club is nearing the end of the fundraiser and is appealing to people to donate to help it reach its target figure to complete the works. Anyone wishing to donate may contact any Club Officer or follow the instructions on the letter delivered to all parishioners over the summer. The development is a wonderful facility for the club and the wider community and it is hoped people will respond to this final push to finish the job.
The death has taken place of Nora Tiernan, Louisburg, Co. Mayo, mother of Tim Tiernan, Ballygriffey, Ruan.
Pastoral Meeting.
A pastoral area meeting will be held in Ruan Community Centre on Wednesday, Sept. 25 at 8pm in Ruan Community Centre. All are welcome.

Crafts Back in Toonagh.
The very popular Craft mornings have resumed in Toonagh Hall on Wednesday mornings from 11am, where an array of crafts are worked on by the people who attend. The 'cuppa' with home baking was much looked forward to and those who attended were delighted to catch up with each other after the summer break. Anyone interested is invited to pop in, to see what it's all about and even just to join the group for their elevenses on the Wednesday mornings.
Recent Death.
The death has occurred of Michael Flanagan, Ashbrook Gardens, Ennis Road, Limerick, formerly of Ballygriffey, Ruan. Michael was a brother of Martin, Ballygriffey and Brid Flanagan and Mary Corey, Loughville, Ennis.
Clare under 14 Camogie team took part in an All Ireland Blitz in Dublin on Saturday, as part of the All Ireland Camogie Final weekend. Ruan Camogie Club was ably represented by Neasa Ni Lachtnain, Aisling Moloney and Niamh Glass, who were a credit to their Club. Clare reached the semi finals on the day.
They were also involved in the parade around Croke Park on Sunday, with the developmental squads from other counties, at half time in the Intermediate final, cheered on by the forty four members of Ruan Camogie Club who travelled in support of the girls to celebrate their participation.
Fundraising Success.
Mike Gardiner and Noreen Ferns played in Toonagh Hall on Friday night, bringing out the dancers of the area for a very enjoyable night out. The event enabled the organisers to display the latest improvements to the kitchen and outside canopy carried out by the Ruan Dysart Resource Group workers. The tables were laden with appetizing treats and refreshments were served.
The support of the community and all who sponsored prizes, baked and publicised the night is very much appreciated.

Ruan Hurling and Camogie Camp
Despite the wet conditions during the recent Ruan Hurling and Camogie Camp, the spirits of all involved were not dampened, in fact, the group seemed to rise above the weather to make it a very enjoyable experience.
Eimear Considine who plays rugby for Munster and Ireland, Laura McMahon who plays for Newmarket on Fergus and is Captain of Clare Senior Camogie team and Peter Dugan, Clare hurling star, visited the camp and imparted some important and life-long tips to the children in attendance.
The camp wouldn't exist without the input of the committee, parents, mentors and coaches who go 'all out' to make it such a success and an enjoyable week for the children.
All Ireland Fleadh Success.
Shona O'Halloran, from Dysart, with Roisin Clancy took first place in Duets (15-18) at the All Ireland Fleadh in Drogheda last week. Denise Whelan from Ballygriffey came 2nd in English Singing, over 18 and Liam Jones, Ruan, came 3rd in Lilting, over 18.
RNLI Cruise to Inis Oirr
Conrad McCullough from Dysart, not content with leading the cyclists into Ennis in the recent Tour de Munster, for Down Syndrome, was at the helm again on Friday evening when he led the musicians and singers on board for the RNLI Cruise to Inis Oirr. Conrad's enthusiasm brought a joyous atmosphere to the cruise. His next adventure is cycling in the third round of the Skoda Celtic Series, starting in Drogheda on Saturday, where he will take in roads around Louth and Meath in the Tour de Boyne Valley and there is no doubt Conrad will enjoy every minute of it, with his parents Breda and Brendan also in the saddle.

The usual clean clothes, bed linen, towels, belts, bags and shoes will be very welcome, as the clothes collection brings in much needed funding for various activities in the school during the year.

Toonagh School Parents Association will host a Coffee Morning in Toonagh Hall on Thursday, Sept. 20. from 9.15 am to 11 am. This is usually a hugely successful and social occasion in the parish, and it isn't hoped the community will be as generous as they always have been for this worthy cause.
The Coffee Morning will also be held in Ruan Community Centre on the same morning, from 10am to 12 noon.
Recent Death.
The death has taken place of Patrick Cahir, Terenure, Dublin and formerly of Larchill, Ennis, brother of Sean and Frank Cahir, Larchill and the late Michael Cahir of Ballygriffey.
School is Back.
Schools are the lifeblood of a community, and this parish is very fortunate in having two primary schools and two pre-schools catering for the children of the area. Toonagh School had fourteen children start in Junior Infants this term. It earned an Active Schools Flag in June, which now flies proudly outside the school, and fibre broadband has been installed in the school, which is of huge benefit to the students and teachers alike.
Ruan also had fourteen children come into Junior Infants, bringing the total students in the school to 102. There are four classroom teachers and two support teachers in the school. In June, before that year's sixth class left for pastures new, they, under the guidance of artist, Aisling Moloney from Ennis, painted a mural along a wall in the schoolyard, depicting scenes and people from the parish, the county and the world. A nature trail was also established in the schoolyard, where the children can interact with the flora and fauna of the area and which provides much enjoyment to all.
Fifteen children attend Ruan Community Childcare, which caters for pre-school children, for children with special needs and also facilitates primary school children, before and after school. It is a modern facility with indoor and outdoor areas well suited to the enquiring minds of young children. Gai Hardy runs the Centre and she may be contacted at 0868839132.
Teach Spraoi in Toonagh, run by Nora Custy, is a 'Nature Kindergarten' preschool which, this year, has introduced the two-year 'Access and Inclusion' programme. It promotes well-being and self-confidence through nature, sensory, creativity, art, physical activity and outdoor activities. As well as children from the locality, children from Miltown Malbay, Kilfenora and Lisdoonvarna attend and there are three staff in the Centre.
Craft Mornings in Toonagh.
Now that the summer holidays are over, people are getting back to routine, and part of that routine here is the Wednesday morning Craft gatherings in Toonagh Hall. They resume on Wednesday, September 12, from 11am. People are welcome to come to share tips on knitting, crochet or any craft they may be interested in, or even join the group for a 'chat and a cuppa' in a warm and genial atmosphere.
Exercise Classes.
The exercise classes for over 55's resume in Ruan Community Centre on Wednesday at 1.15pm, under the capable guidance of John Conroy. These classes have been of great benefit to those who have attended them over the past year or so and people look forward to their weekly gathering where they learn exercises which help with mobility and with their health, in general.
Ruan Camogie
A great year for the Ruan u14 Camogie team saw them reach the county u14 A championship final, which ended in a draw. Unfortunately the replay which was held in Clareabby last week did not go Ruan's way, and Truagh/Clonlara came out on top on the day. However it was a wonderful achievement to get to the final and the girls acquitted themselves very well all throughout the competition.
Four girls from the Ruan Camogie Club, Aoife Anderson, Kate Forde, Sinead Hastings and Emily Whelan will be representing our parish on Saturday 8th September, when they line-out for Clare in Dublin, at the inter-county all Ireland u14 Camogie Blitz, and the support of the community is fully behind them.
Ruan/Dysart Community First Responder (CFR) Group
At a meeting on July 19 last, it was decided to plan a follow-on meeting on Monday 3rd September in Ruan Hall 7:30pm to get a CFR group up and running in the parish. The National Ambulance Service support organisations in setting up and running these groups so this will be a great opportunity for anyone wishing to be in this group who will be first responders in conjunction with the Defibrillator in Ruan and the one which will shortly be installed outside Toonagh Hall.
All Ireland Fleadh Ceoil.
A number of people from the parish were successful at the All Ireland Fleadh Ceoil held in Drogheda recently. Eve O'Connor came first in Fiddle (12-15), her sister, Lily O'Connor came first in Irish Harp (15-18) and their sister Maisie O'Connor is in Tulog Ceili Band u12 which came first.
Tierna Casey was presented with the Cup on behalf of Inis Og Ceili Band which come first in (12-15) section.
Gary Shannon's Burren Group came second in under 12's. Liam Jones come second In Whistling (o18) and first in Lilting (o18).
Summer Camp.
The local GAA field was a hive of activity last week as one hundred and twenty children took part in a coaching camp organised by the Ruan Club. They enjoyed a very high standard of coaching, but, more importantly, they had great fun over the week. On the last day an Ice-Cream Van visited, they had a Dunk Tank, which provided great hilarity and a Bouncing Castle which was a big hit with the children and adults alike.
There were a number of leagues played, with the senior league final proving very exciting. Each child was presented with a certificate by Clare Senior Hurling Star, Peter Duggan. Peter was very generous with his time, signing every jersey and teaching the children skills.
The Club is very grateful to Noel O'Donoghue who made and donated twenty Hurleys for a raffle.
Sean Cullinan was head coach, very ably assisted by a coaching team of Louise McDonnell, Aoife Griffin, Barry Heaney, Alice Casey, Rebecca Crowe, Gerry Fox, Robin Mounsey, Cian O'Donoghue, Anne McMahon, Brian Roughan, Noel O'Donoghue, George Pilkington, Alan McDonnell and Shane O'Loughlin, and hard-working Minor Club Secretary, Anne Marie O'Donoghue.
The u14A Camogie final replay will be held in Fr. McNamara Park on this Friday, Aug. 31 at 6.30pm. The girls would be delighted with the support of the community as they take on Truagh/Clonlara in the final.
Under 15 County Hurling.
Darragh McInerney, a member of Ruan GAA Club, played with the Clare u15 hurlers which overcame Tipperary in the All Ireland Arrabawn Championship at the weekend. Ryan Power, Shane Punch and Jack Lyons are so on the panel.
Mass Times.
The first Mass in the new schedule for Imeall Boirne Cluster will be celebrated in Dysart on Saturday, September 1st at 8pm and will be the Mass of Anniversaries. Weekend Masses for the rest of the month in this parish will be in Ruan on Saturday evenings at 8pm.
This will be the pattern for the next six months, when it will be reviewed, in conjunction with the other parishes in the Cluster.

Another Dark one.
Nathalie and I went for a trip by car, just the two of us, very nice. We needed a destination, so I decided on Ronquieres, guessing that it might be a possible location for some nice photos.
I am always interested in Factory buildings and Industrial architecture in general, like this giant .. well, no idea what to call it, actually.
Anyway, it is used to allow ships to be lifted to another level, replacing 14 locks.
I have traveled it twice myself, years ago.
The weather was rather grey, with a little drizzle.
I did some shots of the construction that houses the winches and other mechanics that operate the lock gates, which did work out nice.
Then I looked at these tracks that support the huge caissons and their counter-weights.
What struck me here was the light on the rails and the clouds.
It would have been even better if there would have been an actual ship moving, but that would have taken at least another hour, and it was too cold. Weak, I know, but we where on a trip together, I did not want to ask her to wait that long.

text: Age, genetics, and everyday wear and tear caused by routine activities can contribute to damage and degeneration of cervical discs – the small cushion of cartilage located between two vertebrae or bone segments that serve as the spine's shock absorbers. Unlike the current standard of surgical treatment which involves removing the damaged disc that cushions the spine then fusing the bones together, the SECURE-C artificial disc allows motion. Surgeons at Doctors Hospital implant it first by removing the damaged disc from the neck, then fitting an artificial one to take its place in the patient's spine. Once the new, artificial disc is placed between the vertebrae, the metal plates of the disc can be seen with X-ray. Doctors Hospital is one of the 20 centers nationwide participating in an FDA controlled, randomized clinical trial to provide this potential alternative to spinal fusion, thus potentially alleviating neck pain and improving mobility and function.

About Chyangra Pashmina
Chyangra Pashmina is internationally recognized as cashmere of the highest grade. It is the world's most revered luxury fiber, sourced from the native Himalayan mountain goats called 'Chyangra' (capra hircus laniger) in Nepal. The Chyangra goats are raised high in the isolated Himalayas, at heights of over three thousand meters above sea level.
The ultra-soft cashmere from the inner coat of the Chyangra goats holds a romantic and unique position in the luxury goods industry. It has been popular among the royal and noble dynasties for centuries as the fabric of the finest and most prestigious garments. Spun by hand and woven or knitted into a wide variety of fabrics, this traditional material continues to find new applications while winning the loyalty of new generations of discerning customers.
Our Values
The Chyangra Pashmina label guarantees an item is made in Nepal and contains a minimum of 51% cashmere from the precious fibers of the Chyangra Himalayan mountain goat.
We combine traditional production methods, modern machinery and careful, sustainable sourcing to preserve the local environment. Chyangra Pashmina fibers are collected regularly every spring after natural shedding. The goats are not harmed in the extraction process and they grow new layers of wool in the winter that follows.
More than twenty five thousand people (the majority being women) are directly employed in the Chyangra Pashmina industry in Nepal. Local and international organizations are committed to the maintenance of high standards of animal husbandry, the maintenance of local craft skills and training in new technical and managerial competencies. A cornerstone of the local economy, increasing production of genuine Chyangra Pashmina is expected to result in an improved quality of life for the people of this under-developed region.
Taken from the under coat of the Himalayan goats, Chyangra Pashmina is so delicate (under 17 microns in diameter) that it needs highly skilled artisans to spin the finest quality of yarn. A skilled spinner can produce only around fifty grams per day. The soft, warm, luxurious and elegant Chyangra Pashmina yarn is woven or knitted into materials and has a wide variety of applications such as shawls, stoles, blankets, scarves, sweaters, cardigans and various accessories. Chyangra Pashmina is a natural insulator: warm in winter and easy to wear in summer. Best of all, articles made from Chyangra Pashmina become treasured possessions that last many years, becoming softer and more beautiful with use. Not all of the fibres used in Chyangra Pashmina originate from Nepal: high quality materials are also sourced from other origins.

The communications industry presents a truly irresistible target to cybercriminals. This is because telecom not only serves as the foundation for all other critical infrastructure, it also carries personal and sensitive data for individuals, businesses and government. By carrying out a cyberattack on a telecommunications operator, a hacker can cause massive phone and internet outages, crippling business and disrupting everyday life in a multitude of ways. As the internet and mobile devices proliferate across the globe, the cyber landscape grows ever more complicated, with increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks that are capable of profound and even life-threatening damage.
Telecom equipment manufacturers must defend against external attacks involving supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) security pertaining to industrial control systems, and telecom equipment security. Device security vulnerabilities are growing, and denial-of-service attacks are a major threat. "Always-on" services and the IoT complicate cybersecurity for telecom companies, especially those providing cloud-based and online services.
To combat this threat, industry and government must work together to share information and minimize risk. Trust in our networks depends on a strong and adaptable cyber ecosystem. TIA works to secure trust in networks by advocating public policy positions on the security of information and communications technology (ICT) equipment and services related to critical infrastructure, supply chain and information sharing. To boost cybersecurity, TIA supports public-private partnerships, industry-led best practices through it's Technology Programs focused on assurance and global standards.
TIA also supports U.S. government information-sharing initiatives to provide the industry with the threat information to safeguard networks and participates in multi-stakeholder groups such as the Sector Coordinating Councils within the Department of Homeland Security, which serve as the sector's voice and facilitates the government's collaboration with the sector for critical infrastructure security and resilience activities. Cybersecurity funding for federal research efforts is also critical. TIA helps shape government decisions, for example, with filings on NIST cybersecurity frameworks, and new cyber legislation such as the CLOUD Act.

TIA Endorses FCC Action on National Security
WASHINGTON, D.C., June 1, 2018 – The FCC should ban the use of federal subsidies for products from suppliers deemed to pose a national security risk, including Huawei, and ZTE, said the Telecommunications Industry Association, the largest trade association for the manufacturers and suppliers of information and communications technology (ICT) products and services.

Imagine going on vacation to beautiful, warm Florida just to find entire beaches strewn with the rotting remains of hundreds of fish, sea turtles and manatees. This is unfortunately not a nightmare, but a current reality for the residents of southwestern Florida, and it has been this way for almost a year now. What causing all this? This little guy.

It is equally important to consider the impacts such events will have on us humans. Human health can be directly or indirectly effected by these toxins through toxic aerosols and consumption of contaminated shellfish respectively. Studies have shown that an increased incidence of both respiratory and digestive illnesses can be found in relation to Red Tide presence, especially in those aged 55 or older (Hoagland P. et al. 2014). According to the United States Census Bureau, from estimates in 2017, about 20% of Florida's population is 65 years of age or older. This means a high percentage of the population is at risk of suffering either respiratory or digestive illnesses due to this bloom. As well as its effects on human health, the Red Tide greatly impacts Florida's fishing and tourism industries.
Figure 3. Red Tide devastation in Florida. Photo modified from Ben Depp Via National Geographic.
Although the specific conditions which enabled this bloom are unknown, many studies have hypothesized which factors likely contributed to this increase in length and frequency. The article states that human activity and climate change are likely the two factors with greatest influence. This is probably because like all other algal species, K. brevis requires sufficient macro-nutrient to enable blooms (Hoagland P. et al. 2014). Increased agricultural practices, water runoff and changes to atmospheric depositions could all contribute to a surplus of nutrients entering the water system and thus becoming available for these algae (Hoagland P. et al. 2014). To mitigate the impacts of Red Tides, it is important to educate the local communities about how their actions effect their environment. For example, improving the public understanding of how fertilizer use can lead to greater blooms and how blooms effect charismatic species like turtles and dolphins. The public should also be informed of the ways in which Red Tides directly affect their communities from damage to fisheries and tourism to public health concerns.
The effects of the Florida Red Tide can be felt among all trophic levels in the surrounding marine and terrestrial environments. The causes and consequences of this specific event are still unknown and will likely be the subject of rigorous future studies.

You've probably spent some time considering your website's local search marketing and SEO strategies. It's likely you've carefully chosen keywords, decided where to place them and made sure your content was interesting to audiences. But if your content is only relevant to English-speakers, someone conducting a search in Spanish or German likely won't be able to find your site.
As the world becomes an increasingly diverse place, it's important to be accessible to those of all backgrounds. There are probably people who speak languages other than English in your community, and you don't want to keep them away from your business by not making it easily searchable in other languages.
Keep up with the competition and consider having pages of your site available in different languages, particularly if there is a large ethnic community in your city. Don't miss out on a potentially large market, especially if your local competition offers websites in languages besides English that are commonly used in your area. If you have an employee, freelancer or service translate some of your content, you may have the potential to up your local search results for those typing in keywords in a different language.

I rarely find myself wearing a watch these days. This is mostly because I have at least two other devices on my person that can tell me the time. I've considered buying a new watch, but I haven't found one that I really feel like wearing. However, this Icon Watch may be exactly what I've been looking for.
Granted, this watch doesn't do anything out of the ordinary, it just simply tells you the hour and minute. It does have that retro 8-bit look to it, which I'm totally digging. It actually reminds me a lot of the little watch from MacOS. $75 will get you one geeky watch that I can bet your friends will envy.

My name is Curtis Dickman and my lifelong passion for creating unique artwork was nurtured during my thirty years of practicing neurosurgery…….yes, brain surgery. Several years ago, I retired from practicing medicine and exclusively devote myself to creating inspiring artwork.
My artistic style is called opticokinetic art; which TEASES THE BRAIN and tests the viewers' perception of reality using 3D imagery which transforms as the viewers perspective changes in relationship to the art. I gravitate toward creating art with optical illusions and movement induced transformations. My artwork explores novel techniques of combining painting and sculpture with unique crisp imagery and vivid 3D renderings of color, form, and light. My style has been influenced by the artistic masters Salvador Dali, MC Escher, Pablo Picasso,Yaacov Agam, Andy Warhol, Vincent Van Gogh and many other master artists.
August 2018: Curtis Dickman paintings are now displayed and sold in Old Town Scottsdale at Derubeis Fine Art of Metal. 7171 East Main Street. Scottsdale, Arizona.

Austin City Council Member Kathie Tovo went to the Capitol Thursday to make a pitch for local control.
"Every city has unique challenges," Tovo said during her brief remarks to the House Transportation Committee. The Legislature, she said, should "allow cities to continue doing what we do best."
Tovo was among the almost 70 people who signed up Thursday to let the transportation committee know what they think about House Bill 2440, legislation that would take regulation of ride-hailing companies like Uber and Lyft statewide — trumping local ordinances like the one in Austin. As our Statesman colleague Ben Wear reports, several lawmakers were highly skeptical of the proposed legislation, which contains Uber's preferred level of background checks and insurance requirements.
Tovo — along with representatives of Dallas and Houston, big cities that spent much of the past two years dealing with the complexities and aggressive tactics of "transportation network companies" to craft their own local regulations — are against the bill.
Tovo pointed out at least four ways in which Austin's ordinance for the companies, passed in October, is more stringent than HB 2440. The city of Austin, she said, prohibits the companies from charging higher, "surge" prices during civic emergencies such as a severe storm, requires difference insurance coverages than HB 2440, allows the city to audit background checks by the companies on its drivers and imposes a fee of 10 cents per ride to be used to improve access to rides for people with disabilities.
After Tovo spoke, a Dallas City Council member and the chief of staff for House Mayor Annise Parker also testified against the legislation.
The bill, authored by state Rep. Chris Paddie, R-Marshall, was left pending after several hours of testimony and committee discussion that lasted into the evening. With about seven weeks left in the legislative session, It is not clear when — or if — HB 2440 will come up for a committee vote.

BIONIC-FINISH® ECO is the ecological alternative to previous durable hydrophobic finishes based on fluorocarbon resins. The nature of its chemical basis is more environmentally friendly than all durable water-repellent finishes before.
No perfluorinated compounds are used for manufacturing ®RUCO-DRY ECO, which is the finishing product of BIONIC-FINISH® ECO. Thus, ®RUCO-DRY ECO is not based on substances that contain perfluorinated groups.
In principle, ®RUCO-DRY ECO is biodegradable. However, according to the OECD test methods, the product cannot be called easily biodegradable but eliminable. As the polymeric components will remain and be effective beyond the life span of the textile finished with ®RUCO-DRY ECO, this is reasonable. Polyester fibres are not easily biodegradable either, but can be recycled without hesitation.
According to OECD tests, ®RUCO-DRY ECO can be easily eliminated from the effluent (> 80%) and is harmless regarding water toxicity (EC-50 (bacteria) > 100 mg/l, LC-50 (fish) > 100 mg/l) as well as oral toxicity (LD-50 (rat) > 5000 mg/kg).
BIONIC-FINISH®ECO is not resistant to dry cleaning or to solvents. Solvents dissolve the finishing film and penetrate it. This has to be considered in coating or laminating. Oil repellency can only be obtained by perfluorinated compounds.

I loved my time in Paris. Beautiful city, charming people and the sights were truly beautiful. Small wonder it has the reputation of being one of the most romantic cities on the planet.
In working some of the images from Paris in an impressionists style I opted for the soft romantic feel of the Orton Style rather than going back to the HDR more surreal feel. Am glad I did.
What I am beginning to discover in working into the Orton style is that if you start with a slightly over exposed original you will keep some shadow detail. This is important as many of the Orton style works I have seen of late kept the standard formula of mating together a regular exposed and a 1 stop over-exposed image which unfortunately yields "bullet proof blacks". Or areas of shadow so devoid of detail they are just big blobs of black that no light penetrates.
Since I like a full tonal range opting to go my route of overexposing the frame by 1 stop and work from the resulting RAW file alter it to just 1/2 to 3/4 of normal with the RAW Processor in CS. I do lose a little highlight detail but gladly exchange that for huge gains in shadow detail. Both of these images were worked that way and am pleased with the detail in the shadows while still keeping the highlights saturated with color and nominal loss of detail. IT adds to the romance of the scene when you have that detail instead of the big black blob.

"Starry Eyed" gained literal meaning when 14,000 volts zapped a 42 year old California electrician after a work related accident.
An Electrician ended up with stars in his eyes after being zapped by 14,000 volts during a serious accident at work. The 42 year-old man from California developed the eye disease cataracts after the high voltage current surged through his body. His shoulder touched a live wire and the current passed through his entire body - including the optic nerve, which connects the eye to the brain.
The effect was two bizarre star-shaped electrical burns in his eyes, according to The New England Journal of Medicine. Dr Bobby Korn, an associate professor of clinical ophthalmology at the University of California, San Diego, treated the unnamed patient. Dr Korn told NBC News: "The extreme current and voltage that passed through this important natural wire caused damage to the optic nerve itself." Cataracts is clouding on the lens inside the eye which leads to limited vision and the most common cause of blindness. The electrician's story was published in the January issue of the journal. The accident happened 10 years ago and the patient still has poor vision in both of his eyes.

It's been a long time coming but two new places to eat are opening at Charleston International Airport.
CHS is getting all new bars and restaurants, several with Charleston connections, as part of the Terminal Redevelopment and Improvement Program (TRIP). A handful of other new restaurants and shops will open this fall.
On July 15, Burger King opened for business will be followed on July 19 by Caviar & Bananas. They join DeSano Pizza Bakery as the newest airport places to dine. DeSano, a Charleston favorite, opened in May 2015. All three restaurants are located after the security checkpoint, accessible to ticketed passengers.
"Passengers now have some exciting new dining options and this will be the best of two worlds – we have a well-known national brand in Burger King and we have a one of Charleston's finest dining establishments in Caviar & Bananas," said Greg Leonard, general manager of Delaware North Companies at CHS.
DNC, a 100-year-old family-owned business based in Buffalo, N.Y., took over hospitality service at CHS in May 2014. Since then DNC has worked closely with the Charleston County Aviation Authority, owner and operator of the airport, to build and bring a totally new lineup of food and beverage vendors to the airport.
"Delaware North has done a great job of ensuring that our passengers have had dining choices during our construction while they worked tirelessly to bring these new brands to the renovated airport," said Paul G. Campbell Jr., executive director and CEO of the Aviation
Authority. "We look forward to the openings this fall of the Jack Nicklaus Golden Bear Grill, the Harvest & Grounds kiosk, and Charleston Beer Works."
Burger King is a global chain of fast food hamburger restaurants with a headquarters in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The chain began in 1953 as Insta-Burger King. A year later new owners purchased the company and renamed it Burger King. It is among the nation's best known fast food chain restaurants.
Charleston's very own Caviar & Bananas is an upscale specialty gourmet market and café featuring both ordinary and extraordinary items. Established in 2008, Caviar & Bananas' flagship store is in the heart of downtown Charleston at 51 George St. In 2011, a second location at 188 Meeting Street in the City Market Great Hall was opened.
Caviar & Bananas will have quick service location in the central marketplace as well as Gourmet Market kiosk right next door. Passengers can grab their food, sit in the central marketplace and watch activity on the airfield through expansive two-story glass windows.
The Gourmet Market will focus on a specialty retail products as well as food offerings, including assortments to highlight the culinary talents and products based in the Lowcountry along with specialty items from around the world. Visitors can consume products on the go, or take along to give as gifts. The food menu includes healthy, seasonally available ingredients as well as family friendly items and those to suit dietary restrictions and preferences. Other branded merchandise for sale includes tote bags, hats, tee shirts, and more.
The Caviar & Bananas quick service location will feature delicious selections of made-to-order and DYO (Design Your Own) sandwiches, salads, and breakfasts along with baked goods and pastries. The offerings are fresh and made from high quality ingredients in a "scratch" kitchen or not from a bag, bottle, or box. The location will carry vegetarian and vegan options, as well as child-friendly specialties. Customization is one unique attribute that makes Caviar & Bananas different. Travelers can tailor a meal to meet their own taste, desire, or dietary requirements.
At CHS, Caviar & Bananas will offer an espresso/tea bar featuring coffees roasted by master roaster, King Bean Roasters of Charleston, as well as an organic tea selection. Other beverages will include half and single serve bottles of wine, and individual locally bottled beers.
