The point of having a traditional IRA is to deposit money for retirement in the account and not pay tax on the money until you withdraw it. Normally, you deduct whatever you deposit in your IRA from your taxable income on your 1040. In some cases, however, you might make non-deductible contributions. Rather than deducting these contributions from taxable income, you pay tax on them now rather than later.
Normally, you can deposit up to $5,000 tax-free -- as of 2012 -- in an IRA . If you also have a tax-deductible employee account, such as a 401(k), the rules change as your income rises. In 2012, for example, if you're a single tax filer making more than $58,000 you can't deduct the full $5,000: You can put $5,000 in, but some of it stays taxable. The exact amount depends on your income: The more you make, the less you can deduct, and above a certain point you can't deduct anything.
Why Contribute
Even if your IRA deposit isn't tax-deductible, any interest it earns in the IRA is tax-free until you withdraw the money. If your IRA is earning good returns, that may be a good enough reason to make non-deductible contributions. If you make IRA contributions throughout the year and your income isn't consistent -- you work on commission, for instance -- you may not know some of your contributions are non-deductible until December 31 when you discover how much your income was for the year.
If you pay tax on your IRA contributions, you don't have to pay tax again when you withdraw them. If you deposit $22,000 in non-deductible contributions over the life of your IRA, you can withdraw it tax-free in retirement. Unfortunately, you can't pick and choose, for example making only tax-free withdrawals in a given year. Instead, you use a percentage: If 12 percent of your contributions were non-deductible, roughly 12 percent of your withdrawals are tax free.
It's your responsibility, not your account manager's, to figure out how much of your IRA contributions for the year are non-deductible. Use IRS Form 8606 to record and report how much of your contribution you had to pay tax on this year. You also use the form to track your cumulative non-deductible contributions from year to year. Keep the forms in your records: The IRS will treat everything you withdraw as taxable unless you have proof that you've paid tax on some of the money already.

The Horde
"The members of the horde do those things which are dictated by the folk and roving music; they act as their environment wishes – which does not endure changing. It is a constant readiness, a fight for their lives – while the audience feels the sweet drops of liberation from the constraint of the modern and conventional world."

side-dominant science, Left- or Right-Sided, Scientific American:
What do the brains hemispheres have to do with sidedness? When someone is processing language, one hemisphere is usually working harder than the other. There is also some correlation between the sides we use in our brain and the side we use on our body. This preference to use one side of the body over the other is known as sidedness, laterality or left/right dominance.

Henry Higgins, education, Standard English, NYTimes.com:
LONDON — A school in northeastern England has opened a can of worms by urging parents to make sure their offspring learn when to use the Queen's English rather than their distinctive local dialect, if they want to get on in life.
Sacred Heart Primary School in Middlesbrough, in the Teesside region, wants its 5- to 11-year-olds to avoid localisms in their writing and speech and has included a handy guide in a letter to parents.
Examples: Avoid "gizit ere" and stick to "please give me it." It's "letter" and "butter," not "letta" and "butta." And always say "you", not "yous," even when there is more than one person.
"I believe that basic communication skills are essential for life," Carol Walker, the school's head teacher, said this week. "We would like to equip our children to go into the world of work and not be disadvantaged."
She said she was not asking children to change their dialect or accents. But she did not want them to enter the world of work without knowing about standard English.
It sounds like good advice in what careers advisers would call the modern competitive workplace. But some residents feel it is part of a broader trend toward conformity and homogenization.
Academics consulted by The Evening Gazette, the local Teesside newspaper, were broadly supportive of the school's initiative, while also defending the role of regional dialects.

Republican regulars have thought that Trump was different than their own vision. Ed Kilgore breaks the news: the support is consolidating with Trump.
Conservatives Are Losing Their Base To Trump
While Dems can think of rebuilding relationships with the disillusioned working class, the reality will be that the nationalistic right of Trump is likely to hold them. The folks more likely to come into play will be civic Republicans, those middle class, non-evangelical, educated voters. There are a bunch of them in the near suburbs and so offer potential as the Party turns to 2018. A Democratic Party that is sane (progressive but practical) may have some possibilities in the eastern townships.

Current vaccines against A, C, W-135 and Y strains do not work in children under the age of two years.
But data presented at the World Society for Pediatric Infectious Diseases Congress suggests the new vaccine is protective from six months.
Infants in North America, Africa and Eastern Europe would benefit most from the vaccine, said experts.
Most cases of meningitis in the UK are caused by meningitis C or B.
The government introduced a vaccine against meningitis C in 1999 and a vaccine against meningitis B - which causes the majority of cases in the UK - is being trialled.
But in other areas of the world, different strains of the infection are more common.
Meningitis A causes deadly epidemics every year in the African "meningitis belt" - an area that stretches from Senegal in the west to Ethiopia in the east.
Strain A is also increasing in Eastern Europe and strain Y is becoming more common in North America.
Immune response
A phase II study of the new vaccine, Menveo, which has been developed by Novartis, found good immune responses in 175 infants who received either two doses at ages six and 12 months or one dose at 12 months against all four strains.
It is a conjugate vaccine, which is better at producing "immune memory" than the older polysaccharide vaccines.
In the vaccine, molecules from the outer membrane of the meningitis virus are attached to a protein which can prompt a stronger immune response than the membrane molecules alone.
It is currently being assessed in larger trials and is expected to be submitted for regulatory approval next year.
In June, the Meningitis Vaccine Project, announced successful results in Africa with trials of a conjugate meningitis A vaccine.
Further studies are planned in India and in Burkina Faso in Africa. If successful authorities then plan to introduce the vaccine across the rest of West Africa at a cost of about 40 US cents per dose.
Dr Andrew Pollard, head of the Paediatric Infection and Immunity Laboratory at the University of Oxford, said strains of meningitis varied from country to country.
He added most cases in the UK are now caused by group B, but around 50-183 cases a year were caused by strains other than B and C, mainly types W-135 or Y.
"A vaccine that protects against any cases is worth having, although vaccination policy will vary by country depending on which strains are most common."
Chris Head, chief executive of the Meningitis Research Foundation said current vaccines against A, W-135 and Y strains provided limited protection in the very young.
"The prospect of broader protection against meningitis and septicaemia is tremendously encouraging, particularly for young children who bear the greatest burden from these deadly diseases."
Professor Robert Read, an expert in infectious diseases at the University of Sheffield said the vaccine could be very useful in parts of Africa where they get large outbreaks of meningitis A but also meningitis W-135.
"The attack rate can be upwards of one per 1000 so your chance of getting meningitis as a baby is incredibly high.
"That's where this vaccine has real potential," he added.

As of July 2, 2019, the repair of 80 houses was completed in the town of Arys, Turkestan Region. In the near future, builders will restore another 349 dwellings.
According to the Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development, over 100 construction companies or 1,037 specialists and 54 units of special equipment from all regions of the country are involved in a large-scale action for the restoration of the city. The working group led by the vice minister of industry and infrastructure development, Kairbek Uskenbaev, is now in Arys.
"The Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development has a big task – the organization of the restoration of residential buildings and infrastructure. The ministry, on behalf of the government, sent a very large group of experts – our engineers and estimators, that is, the most experienced specialists in the construction industry, who, first of all, checked private and multi-family houses," said Kairbek Uskenbayev.
According to the vice minister, all homes in Arys are kept under control and daily monitoring.
"We have monitored every house. And even if only a window leaf was broken in the house or glass was broken out, we all took it into account and fixed the dwelling as an object in need of repair. Therefore, for each house there is an individual approach, somewhere there is glazing, somewhere the replacement of the roof. Some houses will have to be demolished and rebuilt. We identified all the existing damage, made a budget and are now conducting an assessment to determine the amount of damage and the necessary funds for restoration," said Kairbek Uskenbayev.
As was reported earlier, the city was divided into 17 sectors, securing all regions of the country and cities of republican significance for them. A part of the expenses on the restoration of residential buildings is assumed by the fixed local executive body, the rest of the expenses will be covered by funds from the republican budget. It is worth noting that the construction company BI Group expressed a desire to help in the restoration of houses. They were allocated 100 houses. According to the Committee on Construction, Housing and Public Utilities, 85% of all homes in Arys need repairs.
Kairbek Uskenbayev also noted that every day by 7 p.m., all local executive bodies report on the work done to repair the housing stock.
In turn, the restoration of social infrastructure facilities will be carried out at the expense of the Samruk-Kazyna Fund, and large business representatives are ready to help the entrepreneurs from Arys by sending funds through Atameken.
All damaged and destroyed facilities must be commissioned before Aug. 1, 2019.

10 Best Ways To Masturbate And Have An Orgasm For Girls
1.Try The Hand Shower:
The above mentioned techniques are great to masturbate and have an orgasm, but if you are a firm believer of never ending pleasure then you should try the hand shower too while you look at cleaning yourself up. The hand shower is a great device to stimulate your clitoris for an orgasm, if the water force is pointed towards it. When the water jet is targeted to the clit, a great stimulation occurs that would help you have another orgasm and further could help you squirt all your juices out, all at once.
2. You Could Try A Vibrator:
While most women might be skeptical to use a vibrator, a lot of them do give it a try. A vibrator need to not be always inhumanely huge. A decent looking vibrator will give you the utmost pleasure that any other complicated vibrator would claim to give. Before you use the vibrator, always remember to have the vagina wet enough either with your own juices or with some water-based lube. Once it is all greasy, start using the vibrator the way you like it. Try out different things like rubbing it around your clitoris or penetration, whichever position gives you the maximum pleasure. This pleasure would ultimately lead to an hell of an orgasm.
3.Touching Yourself:
The key to an awesome orgasm is going slow. Exploring your intimates slow and steady will only give you extended pleasure and too much fun throughout this intense exploration. So finding yourself a comfortable cozy place is extremely important and then touching those hidden places like they were not touched before. Feeling your flower is from the outside and inside will not just excite you but get you all in the mood to go further.
4. Rubbing The Clitoris:
Fingers can be used in many ways and if you are getting naughty tonight, then you should know how best you can use them. Start with one finger then two and so on to massage your clitoris. The clitoris is your pathway to heaven as it has many nerve endings all secluded at one place. Touching your clitoris will turn you on and give you an amazing feeling. Rubbing it further will erect your clit and give you an orgasm.
5. Pouring Some Lube and Fingering:
Not all women can get slimy and sleazy down there so quick. But to get the maximum out of this, you can get all that desired wetness by pouring on some lube. Lubricants are available in different flavors to give you the right tingling sensation. So apply some lube on your lips of your vagina and then use your fingers to slide it all inside the vaginal opening. A few thrusts and you should be all paced up to have an orgasm.
6. Find Your Zone:
Finding your erotic zone is extremely essential. While you pamper yourself, always remember to explore your body and see which part of the body turns you on the most. Once you figure that out, it is how you caress and touch it. The usual zones that women turn on with are the breasts, the neck and the clitoris. However it can vary from women to women. So while you play with yourself, stimulate yourself further by playing and touching these erotic. It will add to the sensuousness of the act and help you have a great orgasm.
7. Change Positions:
The traditional way of self stimulation is always by lying down, but that is not the only way to do it. You could sit, stand , twerk, hop and do everything possible while you masturbate. Ideally one position might slow your masturbating ability, hence trying multiple positions will enhance your experience and give you an sexual outburst like never before.
8.Setting The Mood:
The first and foremost important thing, before we get all cheesy and horny with ourselves is to set the right mood. So to get the ambience right, a few essential oils in the room to give that fragrance would dos some good. Visual aids are a must if you need to you to tame your mind to get into the mood. So get something spicy to watch and let those thoughts flow in.
9. Wearing The Right Clothes:
Well wearing the right clothes here, doesn't mean wearing lingerie and or something all revealing. We suggest you wear something easy breezy for easy access to your privates. A loose pyjama or a skirt can make you feel all comfortable.
10. Pat Dry Stimulation:
With all that stimulation, your vagina and clitoris must be all high on orgasm. The is the time when they are usually sensitive and a touch can do wonders. Overdoing it will give you pain, but giving it a gentle massage while you pat dry yourself, will only give you that additional pleasure and a never ending orgasmic feeling. You should definitely try out!
With this we wind up our list of 10 amazing techniques that will certainly make you have a one of a kind orgasmic experience. So why deprive yourself… it's time to spend sometime with intimate time with yourself and have a good time!

Within the scope of the International Polar Year 2007/2008, an interdisciplinary expedition into the Prydzbay region (East-Antarctica) was carried out by the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) for Polar and Marine Research from early February to mid April (Chief Scientist: H.-W. Hubberten).
A team of six scientists under the leadership of D. Wagner (AWI) worked for four weeks in the ice free areas of the Larsemann Hills and the Rauer Islands at the Prydzbay coast. The diversity and ecology of microbial communities, and their function in nutrient turnover were studied under extreme conditions in the Antarctic periglacial regions to identify the main microbial players in nutrient turnover. Soil and sediment samples were taken to analyze the micro-flora in relation to the important site characteristics such as hydrological, thermal and weathering processes. The acquired data will give an insight into the early stages of life on Earth, as well as the development of extreme habitats and the functioning of microbes within periglacial ecosystems.
The AWI permafrost investigations in the delta of the Lena River, Northeast Siberia, Russia were continued in July and August 2007, and included long-term methane emission rates of the wet polygonal sedge-moss-tundra showing the importance of the natural CH4 source of permafrost affected soils (D. Wagner). The N-fluxes in permafrost soils and sediments were investigated by the University of Hamburg (E.-M. Pfeiffer). Additional soil science studies of the pedogenesis in the Alas depression on Kurungnakh Island were investigated in co-operation with PhD work at the Moscow State University (MSU). The goal of the newly formed young investigator group SPARC (Sensitivity of Permafrost in the Arctic), under the leadership of J. Boike (AWI), is to close the gap between the small-scale process understanding of energy and water fluxes, and the large-scale information from satellite remote sensing. Work was carried out at sites in Siberia (Lena Delta) and Spitsbergen (Ny-Ålesund) retrieving the following data sets: automated weather, soil, eddy covariance data, highly resolved surface images using digital cameras, and spatially distributed data on surface and radiation properties. Furthermore, spatially distributed hydrologic modelling is being carried out for these watersheds. Surface sediments from lakes recorders of the modern Arctic environment serve as calibration data for palaeoclimate reconstruction using lake sediment cores. During a trip to the Anabar region in northwestern Yakutia, samples for diatom, pollen and geochemical analysis were taken along a typical temperature gradient from the tundra to the northern taiga (U. Herzschuh).
Following up the AWI Tibet seismic expedition of 2006, a 6.3 m long sediment core was taken from Lake Donggi Cona (Northeastern Tibetan Plateau) with the purpose of obtaining multi-proxy-data for climate reconstruction. Additionally, another core (4.5 m) was drilled at a lake close to Litang (Southeastern Tibetan Plateau). In both cases, drilling was carried out from the lake ice-cover. In addition, investigations for possible future campaigns were carried out in the Karlik Mountains, Northwestern China.
Funded by DFG (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) and CAS (Chinese Academy of Sciences), researchers from the Institute of Environmental Physics, University of Heidelberg (K. Roth) and from the Cold and Arid Regions Environmental and Engineering Research Institute (CAREERI), Lanzhou installed three automatic soil-meteorological stations at Zuimatan (55°22'N 99°09'E), Qumahe (34°54'N 94°48'E) and Cumarhe (35°11'N, 93°57'E) on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau in the summer of 2006. The installations were accompanied by extensive surveys of the permafrost table using ground-penetrating radar (GPR). These stations will provide continuous high-resolution data for studying (i) the general thermal and hydraulic dynamics of the warm permafrost along a climatic gradient and (ii) the impact of meteorological fluctuations on the consequences of global change. Also during the summer of 2006, several sites in the Aksai Chin region in Western Tibet were explored applying GPR. This provided basic information to identify future sites where stations could be installed, and where more extensive geophysical explorations could take place.
Based on meteorological and soil temperature monitoring data compiled by the Department for Geography, Giessen University, in the Swiss Matter Valley, L. King and C. Maag investigated permafrost distribution between 3000 and 3400 m asl in the Gornergrat-Stockhorn region (Swiss Alps). They continued the monitoring of permafrost distribution, snowpatch patterns, geomorphological changes and mass-movement hazards. The climate change oriented research was supported by glaciological studies in the same area.
An interdisciplinary research project called Water Resources in the Aksu-Tarim River Catchment (Xinjiang Autonomous Region, China) and the effects of Climate Change was proposed by L. King (Giessen), H. Paeth (Würzburg), W. Hagg (Munich) and T. Bolch (Dresden), following a Chinese-German symposium in Urumqi. The regional water cycle within the framework of interrelated modules was researched, addressing atmospheric, cryospheric and hydrospheric processes. Within the cryosphere module, the regional permafrost distribution and active layer dynamics were of particular interest.
At the Department of Physical Geography, University of Würzburg, C. Kneisel is continuing surface temperature monitoring and geophysical permafrost characterization in the Swiss Alps, central Iceland and northern Sweden. In the Swiss Alps subsurface temperatures are monitored within two boreholes in the periglacial zone, and within one newly drilled borehole in the Bever valley at a sporadic permafrost site. Here, extensive geophysical mapping (2D electrical resistivity imaging and 2D refraction seismics) was carried out together with D. Schwindt to map the extent of small permafrost lenses. Geoelectrical monitoring of permafrost characteristics and active layer thickness was continued in the Muragl glacier forefield regularly during the summer months.
Permafrost research at the Department of Physical Geography of the University of Bonn focuses on geomorphic surface characteristics, sediment budgets, and the understanding of permafrost-affected transitional systems in rock walls, rock glaciers and glacier forefields. In his PhD thesis Otto (2006) used geomorphic mapping, geophysical sounding and mathematical base level extrapolation to quantify paraglacial sediment storage in the Turtmann Valley (Valais, Switzerland). Attention has been paid to the understanding of shortterm and long-term nonlinear processes in transitional systems (Dikau, 2006; Krautblatter and Dikau, 2007). Bedehäsing et al. (2007) compared the applicability of different geomorphic mapping systems to permafrostaffected glacier-forefields in the Matter and Turtmann Valleys (Swiss Alps). Otto et al. (2007) discussed multipurpose application of HRSC-A datasets for the investigation of periglacial landforms. Krautblatter and Hauck (2007) introduced an approach to derive 2D-spatial information on permafrost distribution in rockwalls with the aid of electrical resistivity tomography. Krautblatter et al. (2007) also provided 3D insights into rock permafrost distribution and spatial variability using 2D/3D refraction seismics and 2D/3D electrical resistivity measurements in the Swiss Alps (Turtmann/Matter Valleys) and the German Alps (Zugspitze). This dataset was also used to support the planning of the Zugspitze Permafrost Borehole by the Bavarian Government. From 2006 to 2007 a wireless sensor network was tested in the Turtmann-Matter Valleys, providing online access to insolation, rock and air temperatures in different aspects (www.sensorgis.ch). Rock permafrost monitoring and permafrost-induced rock movements will be studied as part of the forthcoming research project Sensitivity of Mountain Permafrost to Climate Change (SPCC).
Initiated by the European Polar Board, German activities within the International Polar Year 2007/08 will include the programme 'Cool Classes', addressing teachers of all geo-sciences. School teachers will be able to participate directly in international scientific projects and expeditions, and develop concepts for in-class science projects in marine and terrestrial sciences, including permafrost topics by using both a theoretical and practical approach. As the polar regions are not yet represented in the school curricula, the concept 'Cool Classes' will be utilized in order to establish long-term partnerships between school groups and scientific institutions in Germany (polarjahr.de/coole-klassen.155.0.html, project coordinator: email@example.com).

Natalie Joos is a casting agent who books models for runway shows, editorials, advertising and videos. Her clients includes designers Helmut Lang and Philip Lim, photographer Mario Sorrenti and magazines such as Hercules and i-D. She shares much of her expertise on style and vintage fashion on her blog, Tales of Endearment.
How is editorial and advertising different from runway casting?
They are all different types of castings. Even though editorial and advertising are both for print they still require a different mindset. For advertising, you need to think of one girl that embodies the brand's aesthetic and direction. Editorial girls are trendier; they can be a little bit outside of the box. Runways girls have to have it all: the right walk, the right body, the right face. Plus you are looking for 15+ girls, not just one or two. And the entire cast has to feel consistent and homogenous. It's like a puzzle.
Do you to attend all shows you are casting?
I am backstage at every show I work on. I don't get to see my shows live, just on the monitor.
Which models are in high demand now?
The big girls like Freja, Abbey Lee, Anja Rubic, and some new up and coming supermodels like Candice Swanepoel and Joan Smalls. Cute girls like Lindsay Wixon, Daphne Groeneveld. There were a few new faces this past season that I really loved: Kati Nesher at DNA, Marte at IMG, Karlina at Viva, Josefien Rodermans at Supreme.
Who do you see as the breakout stars for 2012?
Kati Nesher at DNA, Marte at IMG, Josefien Rodermans at Supreme.
How do you cast when the brief asks for "real women"?
I have been doing a lot of shoots with "real people" lately. I always look for girls who have something else going on besides just having a pretty face: DJ's, writers, budding actresses, dancers. They have to be attractive but they can be any size or shape as far as I'm concerned, as long as they appeal to the right audience.
In your opinion do you think it would benefit companies to feature women that customers can relate to?
You are assuming that women don't relate to the company's spokesperson. I don't think that's true. Women often look up to and aspire to be the women in the magazines. Actresses and models and celebrities have aspirational lives and bodies and styles.
On the other hand, I don't think there is shortage of real women either. Street style blogs are living examples. There's plenty of opportunity to see real women with real lives and real clothes wearing your favorite designers. To each his own, no?
How has the casting business changed since you began in 2003?
I guess there are a lot more casting agents now? When I started there were really only the few big ones who had the majority (and still do!) of the big jobs. Now everyone and his mother wants to be a casting agent.
How is your approach different from other casting agents out there?
I have no clue! I never worked for any other casting agent, except Michelle Lee for one season of Marc Jacobs. I'm self-taught. And I get the job done. I'm very organized and neat and meticulous. I alphabetize everything — my assistants hate me for it — and work with binders and colors to keep everything in order. I have an army of assistants and interns that drive the model agents crazy with millions of phone calls a day during shows. And of course I have my own aesthetic. I always love the cute, young girls. But I adapt to each designer's wishes. Every casting agent brings their own taste to the table.
To what to do you attribute your success?
I have good taste and I have an eye for beauty. It is something I can count on and never have to question.
As someone who is often photographed by street-style bloggers, its' almost as if you are being casted yourself. Is there a photographer you look forward to being shot by?
I would like to ask my ex-boss Craig McDean to shoot me again.
Who has been your greatest casting discovery?
I would say I didn't really discover anyone but I have my eye on the right girls who end up doing well eventually. I remember putting Kasia Struss in Tsumori Chisato show in her first season. She made it big the following season. We did the same with Suvi. I booked Marte Mei Van Haaster on the first day of London Fashion Week. I believe that was her first show ever. I didn't discover Anais Poulliot but I have supported her from the beginning. I shot her for my blog with Adam Lippes last year. I booked An Oost in her first ad campaign with McDean. I placed Josefien Rodermans in my top thirty new faces for V Magazine last year and she went on the book an exclusive for Calvin Klein this season (her first season). I can claim that little act of visionary clairvoyance. And I am responsible for Delfine Bafort's comeback.
When did you develop your hobby for shopping vintage?
Vintage shopping is a real thrill for me. I love the surprise element. When you find that one piece that makes you go: "Wooow!" I live for it. It must have started at my grandmother's house. She had closets full of coats and accessories she had not thrown away since the 50's or 60's. She kept everything! I have a lot of her things.
What's a typical day like for you?
I get up, pour a glass of grapefruit juice, sit down at my computer and basically don't get off my chair unless I am thirsty, hungry or a delivery guy shows up. I spend a lot of time typing.

Hello, I'm Katya.
1)I can't find an explanation for the use of comparative and positive degree of comparison of adjectives. I can't understand why the author doesn't use "easy". Why he writes "easier"? Here is a sentence:
"Every parent wishes an EASIER life for their children."
I meet an "extra" (it seems to me that it's extra) comparative degree of the adjective often. Could you give me the rule of use comparative and positive degree of comparison of adjectives. I don't need simple rule like "good-better-the best"
2)Why the aythor uses "their" if there is a singular "parent"?
P.S. How's the weather in your country?
P.P.S. I'm happy to chat with you Let's make friends.[/size]

I flew to Montana to help relatives move house from Polson to Butte. In between I spent a week exploring Missoula which is geographically between those two towns. The entire state of Montana is one long gorgeous series of post card views in every direction.
Missoula is the kind of small rural college town that appeals to me. It has the advantage of a compact walkable downtown while providing a generous supply of nearby single family homes. Missoula demonstrates that a town doesn't need to exceed a few stories in height to deliver excellent urbanism. The whole "density" argument that fires people up can be defused by seeing how our great-great grandparents built humane, beautiful, profitable, and financially self supporting towns incrementally on a tight budget. Missoula also shows that if you get the urban form right you hardly need elaborate transit systems or massive highways. Unfortunately this kind of development pattern is now illegal almost everywhere in the country.
As soon as you wander out to the parts of town that were build after World War II everything changes. The roads widen, the buildings scatter, the surface parking lots multiply, and small mom and pop shops are replaced by drive thru chains and national big box stores. You don't need to go to Montana to experience this kind of environment. New Jersey would do just fine instead.
Attempts are being made to build what I call Density Without Urbanism in the aging suburbs of Missoula. This is the new Summit View Square complex which boasts sixty three apartments. The building itself is comfortable and attractive enough. But it's been plopped down in a sea of suburban traffic, strip malls, and gas stations. The developer and city planners may have had good intentions, but it fails on two important levels.
First, these kinds of apartment complexes offer none of the traditional benefits of suburbia. The units either look out at parking lots or have a view of the arterial roads lined with car washes and drive thru banks. If you live on the ground floor the "personal" outdoor space is completely exposed and devoid of the qualities that people look for in a quiet leafy suburb.
Second, it has none of the urban amenities found in the old downtown. Where are the cafes, charming shops, and pleasant human scaled thoroughfares? People often choose a small apartment with no yard if there's culture and vitality outside their front door. That just don't exist in this context.
There's retail space at the front corner of the new building, but future shopkeepers are going to face an uphill battle in this location. There isn't enough foot traffic to support commerce in this dispersed auto-oriented environment, but drivers stuck in traffic may not be inclined to stop here since there's already a glut of half empty strip malls around the neighborhood.
Minimum parking requirements create a huge asphalt lagoon around the building. The fire marshal insists that a giant fire engine be able to drive completely around the entire complex at all times. Zoning and building codes stipulate set back requirements that prevent buildings from ever touching each other or coming right up to the road. The road will keep being widened to accommodate increased car traffic rather than calmed to serve humans. And environmental activists insist on little green Band-Aids being applied in thin strips so there's "nature" in the city.
Two additional complexes are scheduled to be built nearby, but the collective effect will still be too thick to be jam and too thin to be jelly. Creating a new old style downtown is illegal and socially unacceptable. But this new stuff is a platypus that's hard to love.
At the other end of the spectrum the hillsides above town are sprouting new homes in prosperous subdivisions. These are comfortable places to live and I understand why people enjoy this kind of atmosphere. But I'm aware of how these exclusive subdivisions impact the larger town – particularly public infrastructure and municipal finances.
The ranch land that's being carved up to accommodate luxury subdivisions used to have gravel county roads. Taxes on agricultural land are very low and so is the level of county services. They're in balance.
Now the territory has been annexed by the city and has been fitted with paved roads, city water, sewers, and underground cables. Miles of pipes and asphalt are required to serve a sprinkling of homes on difficult terrain. Initially these things are paid for by the developer. Those costs are immediately rolled over to the buyers of the homes when they take on mortgages. But for the next century it's the obligation of the municipal government to maintain and eventually replace all the aging infrastructure at tremendous cost to the public. These homes will never pay enough tax to cover those long term obligations. And we keep building more of it. We can't have that conversation now because the consequences are too far away. But this form of development is a fiscal time bomb.
And here's public transit! How many of the folks who paid $1,600,000 for their dream mountain home in Montana are likely to walk to the end of the cul-de-sac in the snow and take a free city bus downtown? If transit in this location is de facto for the cleaning ladies we need to acknowledge there are far more cost effective and convenient ways to provide that service. Transit should only connect one compact, vibrant, walkable, productive place with another. Running empty buses up and down every hillside subdivision is monumentally wasteful on every level.
If we go back to the older part of Missoula just outside the downtown core there are examples of infill developments that blend the apartment complex concept with the single family home subdivision in a compromise I think works well. Here a corner lot has been fitted with six fully detached homes that exist within a condominium ownership structure. Individual families buy these homes and belong to a home owners association that manages common maintenance. None of these homes is more than two stories tall so the scale of the neighborhood is preserved. People can and do own cars, but the location works very well for pedestrians and bicyclists in connection with modest bus service in the nearby commercial core as needed. And the city has multiplied the amount of homes and tax revenue that's served by exactly the same amount of public infrastructure.
This isn't a perfect arrangement. The people across the street and next door may not love their new neighbors pressing up against them compared to the less intensive land use pattern that used to exist on this lot. But if this sort of thing is made illegal the development will go somewhere else. Are big apartment complexes and remote subdivisions better? For the immediate neighbors… probably yes. For the city as a whole? Absolutely not. If you squeeze a balloon in the middle the ends bulge. If you squeeze it on both ends the middle bulges. If you squeeze everything at the same time the balloon pops.

Cyanogen Lays Off Staff
Cyanogen, a startup that makes an alternative version of the Android operating system, has laid off about 20 percent of its staff. That sparked a round of rumors that the company was making a major strategic shift to focus on app development instead of its flagship OS.
However, Cyanogen CEO Kirt McMaster has refuted those rumors. He tweeted, "Cyanogen NOT pivoting to apps. We are an OS company and our mission of creating an OPEN ANDROID stands. FALSE reporting was outstanding."
In a blog post, company co-founder Steve Kondik added, "CyanogenMod isn't going anywhere."

Quarq servicing - where, how?Hey guys, Has anyone had experiences dealing with Quarq's customer service in Australia? I have a ~18month old Quarq RED powermeter that is returning >31000 when zero off-setting and because of that the power readings are virtually non-existent. The PM died at Cairns (race day) in June and I just assumed it was something to do with all the rain but after getting the TT bike out for the first time last week it is still not working. I tried a new battery and it didn't make a difference so I am guessing the next step is to get someone to look at it. I'm a bit disappointed to say the least. If you're spending almost $2K on a product you'd expect it to last longer than 18months? Is there something about products being fit for purpose or statutory guarantees that I could rely on when dealing with Quarq? TIA Rog

Outback half-ironman - Alice Springs, AustraliaJUST ANNOUNCED: APRIL 27, 2014. The first ever half-ironman in the Northern Territory is going to be held 1,500KM or just under 1,000 miles from the closest major body of water. That's right folks. "The Red Center" is going to put athletes to the test by starting them in a wave form in the outdoor 50 meter pool. I do not know of another half-ironman in the world where the swim is held in a pool, and since the race will most likely be wet-suit legal as the races have been in the past, can you say "PB"? This is a huge deal for our club. We have grown from a handful of members to over 100 last year. In addition to the growth, many of our members have now competed in half and full ironman events. We sent 10+ individuals to Cairns in 2013 and we'll be having 9 members compete in Ironman Wester Australia in December 2014. But it all started with Tavis Johannsen; someone who left this world way to young but laid the groundwork for triathlon to thrive in central Australia. What until last year was known as the Tavis Johannsen Ultra composed of a 2K swim, 60K ride, and 15K run will now expand to 1.9K swim, 90K ride, and 21.1K run. I am very interested to hear what people think about doing a half ironman with the swim held in a pool. It is surely going to be a massive event. http://www.alicespringstriathlonclub.com/ https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=583926558312230&id=188506527854237&comment_id=6423603&offset=0&total_comments=4#!/pages/Alice-Springs-Triathlon-Club/188506527854237 Alice Springs Triathlon Club

Holding a grudge takes vital energy away from other, far more important areas of life, and bitterness is a cold, hard pill to swallow.
Some things, some people, you need to just let go.
I have been working on this lately. Coming to terms with events that happened a few years back. Things that were the result of a lifetime of built up tensions. Trying to figure out how two people, raised in the same house, can see things so very differently. Can be so very different. Can become so far apart.
Many things have been done over the years, hurtful words have been spoken. Wounds have been made, and healed over, only to be roughly ripped open again. And again. And again.
There comes a time when for everyone's sanity things just have to stop.
So they did. We cut each other off. Both for our own reasons, both believing it is the best thing. I still believe staying apart is healthiest for both of us. But man it really hurts sometimes. Knowing life is going on, but I'm not a part of it. Not being able to see my nephews grow. My boy missing out on growing up with his cousins. Not being invited to my only sisters wedding.
Nothing can be done about it, we have a toxic relationship. Both of us are happier and less stressed without the other.
However knowing that doesn't stop the pain

I'm running a standard installation of Apache 2.4.6 (Amazon) with PHP 5.4.21 using the following configuration for my virtual host:
DirectoryIndex index.php
# ...
FallbackResource /index.php
index.php is the epitome of simple:
<?php echo "Hello world";
http://<server-name>/ mysteriously shows the full page only after five seconds! Any other page has the expected response time (which is fast).
Those five seconds, as I came to find out, are related to the default waiting time of the
Keep-Alive feature; in this case, the last few bytes of the chunked response are not sent until Apache severs the connection after that waiting time. Btw, that also completely ruins any gains that a persistent connection would otherwise give you.
Is this a known bug of Apache or am I missing something extremely obvious here?

Agenda – Morning Digital Healthcare Workshops
Workshop #1 Augmenting motor rehabilitation – Application of motion capturing, virtual reality & 3D ultrasound imaging in clinical practice
Brian Horsak (AT), Senior Researcher and Co-Lead Center for Digital Health Innovation, St. Pölten UAS & Mark Simonlehner (AT), Researcher Department of Health, St. Pölten UAS
This workshop will give a brief overview and insight into emerging technologies in motor rehabilitation and will allow attendees to practically put these to test. Motion Capturing: to evaluate movement disorders three-dimensional (3D) motion capturing techniques represent the gold standard in neuro-orthopedic clinical practice. This technology allows to collect 3D quantitative information about the mechanics of the musculo-skeletal system. Virtual Reality: the combination of real-time motion capturing techniques and immersive virtual reality offers huge potential to move motor rehabilitation to the next level. Medical imaging: Simple 2D Ultrasound (US) imaging has been successfully used as a low-cost and non-invasive medical imaging tool to assist clinicians during their medical decision-making process. Recent advances in computer science and technology now allow to transform these simple 2D US images into 3D space by combing motion capturing techniques with simple US technology.
Workshop #2 Create engaging Healthcare Experiences with Augmented Reality – From Design to App Development
Andreas Jakl (AT), Senior Lecturer St. Pölten UAS & Anna Runefelt (SE/SVN), Founder of Nordic Art Initative & Healthcare visualization initiative Art with a Bigger purpose
Would you like to try hands-on how to create your first Augmented Reality app? In this session, you will see how easy it is to use 3D technologies and automated speech processing to explain healthcare-related topics. The session is defined for health professionals with little or no prior experience in app design, who would love to share their knowledge with new didactic methods.
Workshop #3 (Medical) Text Mining
Markus Bertl (AT/EST), Student St. Pölten UAS, Senior Business Analyst at Unisys Austria & CTO of Diagnostic Match
Intelligent systems driven by machine learning and artificial intelligence are making entire enterprises smarter. This is creating a huge potential for industries, especially for the healthcare sector. Since 80% of business-generated information is still "dark" enterprises are left with very little visibility into what's happening in this vast pool of data. That's why this workshop focuses on giving an overview of how text mining and cognitive services can help to generate knowledge out of this data lake. We will explore IBM's Watson platform and the connected services for text mining in a hands-on workshop and an open round to discuss possible use cases.
Workshop #4 HL7 FHIR for Beginners – Im Getting FHIRed up!
Oliver Krauss & Emmanuel Helm, both HL7 Austria Members and Senior Researchers at Upper Austria UAS Campus Hagenberg
In this workshop you will learn the latest HL7 data exchange standard in healthcare. FHIR – Fast Healthcare Interoperable Resources – and its RESTlike API with FHIR-resources offer numerous possibilities to build future-proof applications and interfaces. If possible please install a RESTful cient such as SoapUI, Postman or any other on your laptop.

- PAR®OT: Call Me By Your Need – A healthcare professional calling system which reduces noise, stress and alarm fatigue
Alexander Mantler, Monika Dumanic
+ Team: Alexander Vollmer, Stefan Noestlinger, Stephan Pokorny, Julia Puerstinger and Markus Schimanko
After sparking the idea of improving the conventional nurse call button in hospitals, we developed a prototype of a smart and affordable nurse call system.
Imagine being a patient in a hospital with only one option to express your needs.A single button to push that activates an alarm.
There is no information attached to that alarm.
Your request is not specified nor triaged.
Every alarm must be handled as an emergency.This is where PAR®OT comes into play. A web browser-based application to handle your individual request. Are you in pain, thirsty, or do you simply need assistance to go to the bathroom? Just use PAR®OT to let your healthcare professional know. No shrill alarms, no unnecessary disturbances. Your healthcare professional gets notified about your request and may respond instantly. The additional information to the request helps to improve the daily routine and promotes your health and necessities. Additionally, every request is documented and traceable.
- Dr. BellyWell: keep your belly well – How we plan to achieve adequate support in the pre- and postoperative care of gastric bypass patients

+ Team: Annika Ullrich, Rene Kainz and Simon StroehleDr. BellyWell is an application which utilizes a voice activated speech interface (Amazon Alexa). Natural language processing assists patients before and after receiving gastric bypass surgery. The focus is on giving those patients valuable information before their scheduled intervention and to primarily support their recovery after the surgery. Dr. BellyWell monitors the users' progress, reacts accordingly and informs the user to change his or her eating behavior. Or in extreme cases, gives advice to the user to contact his or her physician.Additionally to gastric bypass patients, there are further groups who can benefit from using Dr. Bellywell. Doctors, therapists and insurance groups will be able to profit from adequate care of gastric bypass patients.
- FallTec: Using a Wearable Sensor to Reduce Fall Risk for Patients with Dementia
David Kollmitzer, Elias Matousek
+ Team: Isabel Kächele, Philipp Köcher and Jürgen MaurederFalls of elderly people represent a major healthcare problem. Many fall detection systems are already available, but there is a lack of systems which focus on prevention. The primary goal of FallTec is to prevent patients with dementia from falling by monitoring and identifying high-fall-risk patients via sensor-based gait analysis. Using this information, healthcare professionals can intervene earlier. In the end, this leads to a higher well-being for patients and relieves the healthcare system. Be excited about the presentation of our self-designed prototype and web-application.
- STaRT – bringing rehabilitation into your living room
Almesberger Marcel, Wiesinger SarahTelerehabilitation can be a new approach to support the therapy of patients with functional and mental disabilities. This topic is nowadays mentioned a lot in the media and is also discussed in politics. The chance of real implementations is getting higher and higher. In this project we want to test an already developed telerehabilitation platform called UMBRELLO. We want to define new use cases for this platform and evaluate these use-cases with test subjects.
- KARLI – Kidfriendly Augmented Reality Learning Interface – Learn about the human body by having a look inside!
Michael Andorfer, Mariella Seel
+ Team: Patrick Knogler, Anna-Maria Lienhart, Johannes PanzenboeckPeople are forced to make health-related decisions throughout their whole life – often without even knowing the essentials for dealing with such meaningful topics. We believe that having basic knowledge about the human body and its functions is crucial for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Therefore, growing health literacy starts at the youngest age – and this is where KARLI comes into play! Developed to suit the requirements of primary school teaching & learning and designed to empower children, we want to equip kids with the most important facts about their body – starting with a deeper look into anatomy by using our AR app for exploring the human heart!

Sunday Afternoon at the Opera - Berlioz: Requiem; JoAnn Falletta interview
Sunday Afternoon at the Opera host Keith Brown writes:
Although it takes its text from the Latin language Roman Catholic Mass for the Dead, Hector Berlioz' Grande Messe des Morts, Op. 5 (1837) is really a secular composition better suited for the concert hall not the church. Berlioz had been commissioned to write a Requiem Mass in remembrance of a French army general who had been assassinated in 1835, but the premiere performance was put off for two years due to political squabbling. In the end it was played at a memorial service for a different French general who had more recently fallen in battle. The Berlioz Requiem was received with great enthusiasm. It now stands alongside Verdi's Requiem of 1874 as one of the monumental sacred works of nineteenth century Romanticism.
I have broadcast the Berlioz Requiem once before on Sunday, May 30, 1993. America's greatest musician of the twentieth century, Leonard Bernstein gave it a superb interpretation. He conducted the Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus of Radio France. Originally recorded in Paris in 1975, it was reissued in compact disc format by Sony Classical as part of a multi-volume rerelease of Bernstein's recorded output. JoAnn Falletta remembers Bernstein from master classes he gave at Juilliard back when she was a student there. Now a well-established conductor, she recorded the Berlioz Requiem with the Virginia Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, with the additional voices of the Choral Society of Washington, DC. Tenor Robert McPherson was the vocal soloist. The recording was made live-in-performance at the Chrysler Hall in Norfolk, VA as part of the Virginia Arts Festival held in May, 2017.
Ms. Falletta celebrates twenty five years as conductor of the VSO and has also been the conductor of the Buffalo Philharmonic since 1999. She has recorded with the Buffalo Philharmonic for the Naxos label. On Sunday, January 17, 2010, I broadcast the Naxos recording of Shining Brow, Daron Hagen's opera about the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright, with Falletta conducting. Falletta's Berlioz Requiem was released late last year on CD through Hampton Roads Classics. Her recording benefits from superb twenty-first century sonics. Keep listening after my broadcast of the Requiem for my exclusive prerecorded interview with JoAnn Falletta about her career in music and her recording of the Berlioz Grande Messe.

Tayo Faniran had tweeted;
Why are they making it obvious that they dislike Ceecee,she has been too much at times but I've seen her soft side,I admire her confidence and self believe #BBNaija
And then the following ensued when a fan decided to reply him,

telling me to get out of his way, busy watching elmo.
He is now 14months and as always very full of energy that sometimes i wonder where he got it from lol. Definitely not from dad, he is more laid back and mellow. Perhaps from me? So what's my little toddler's up to these days?
Vocabularies, milestones and silly personalities of Mattie:
-"Dada/dadee" seem to be his favorite word(for his daddy),"papa" for grandpa.
-Refers to his bottle as "data" for gatas(i'm trying to talk in bisaya as much as possible)
-Saying "Adada" as he pointed his finger to the monitor(tv/pc) to play elmo dvds.(grandma got him a dvd player and elmo learning discs for valentines day). He's glued to it when it's playing.
-"Meme/mama" as he learn to call grandma and "Ma/mum-mee" for mommy(me). Very often that he calls my name unless he needs something(sad).
-Calls his banana as "Manamana".
-Mastered the word "tat" for our cat buddy. His no longer scared of her when she hiss and more comfortable petting her. On a good day he would just smile as she passes by with a mean look.
- "Ssssh" sound when he sees the snake picture.
-"Argggghh" for bears, tiger, alligator, still trying to create a different sound for each animal though.
"Aw-aw-aw" for puppy sound. Glances to our backdoor window to watch the next door neighbors barking dogs. He is fascinated with these creatures.
-says "hi" with gladness
-says "bye" with hands waving to everyone that leaves
-gives blow kisses when you tell him so
-says "nye nye" for bedtime
-very stingy with kisses but when his in the mood he smother us with wet kisses on our face.
-knows how to say "up" when climbing the stairs, even when he wants to go down he would say it too.
-recognizes the birds and their sound when he sees it and points his finger to tell mom.
-says "bloon" for balloon at the grocery store and books. We have to ask the friendly grocery associate to blow one for him otherwise he'll throw a fit and say the word nonstop.
-Knows how to turn the tv remote tv on, and at the daycare they told me that he now knows how to turn on the dvd player as well.
-He can get in and out of this kiddie car although he is still trying to figure out how to drive learning to push the beep beep button is enough for an exciting day
-Learning how to putt his golf ball is a lot of fun when his grandpa babysits
-says "at" when the food is hot and blows it at the same time
At the school they moved him last monday to the toddler II section with two of his classmates(2 blonde girls lol) . Teacher said that he's way advanced and now ready to learn new fun activities. I'm proud to be told that he is advancing. Not so surprise since he already starts walking at 10mnths. Thus all other developments came pretty early as well. Also, his school had them participate into activities from drawing to scribble and reading which i'm sure enhances their skill potential at that age. You can say i'm bias but i have nothing but support to daycares as long as i know they are watched and taken good care of i'm all for it. Anyway, he loves to give hugs and kisses to stuff toys and pictures than us. He seem to be born with fins, he loves to be in the water for hours. Whether in the tub, backyard with the water hose on or the beach his fearless and never gets tired of it. Loves grapes and banana the most for snacks, he still eats applesauce but less of the chunky fresh one. Basically eats any table food i served as long as it's soft. Not very fond of meats unless it's cut very small and again soft. Sleeping pattern, oh what a treat for me and Richard. Our boy can sleep. He averages from 9-11hrs at night and naps for two hours at the daycare. On the weekend he'll sleep an hour in the morning and another 30mins-1hr in the afternoon. Since our december trip i don't have any problems putting him to sleep. Lights dim and mobile songs playing and he is out in 10mins. For this i can't complain. He knows how to outsmart our staircase gate now that he simply stick his head underneath and on his way up climbing. We have to lower it or put pillows as stoppers on the first stair as blockage. On telephone rings he would respond by putting his hands on his ears and says "looo" for hello. He gets mad when you take away any phones out of his tiny fingers.
He recognizes the number words as you say it. On his elmo movies that has a counting scene he would stomp his feet to each of the number spoken . I guess he is counting too. The part that i love the most is when he gives kisses and hugs with a smile. I am going to cherish and remember these sweet tricks forever. Knowing that when he becomes an adult i won't be getting it a lot so enjoy it while it lasts.
Lovin mommyhood....
