I know that the recommended brand of sphagnum here is Shultz Canadian--however all I can find at my local stores is "Wisconsin", probably because I live in WI...I bought a bag of the dried long fiber and a bag of milled and some perlite to mix for my ailing VFT. I read the lables carefully--according to the packaging, there's nothing but the moss in there. is there something specific about WI moss that is "not good"? I'd like to know before I replant my son's VFT. I've read everything I can find here on the correct mix (and this varies from person to person), and am planning to use the following:
40% long fibered sphagnum (rehydrated with RO water)
40% Perlite (washed with reg water, rinsed with RO)
20% Milled Sphagnum (rehydrated with RO water)
Any problems with this mix?
Thanks so much for all the advice! If Venie ever gets well, I'll post his picture. Right now, he's not at his best...

As they did two weeks ago in the Meadowlands vs the Giants, the Bengals put forth a game effort, but in the end the Cowboys were simply too much to overcome as the Bengals dropped to 0-5 with a 31-22 loss. The team is 0-5 for the first time since 2002, that season they stared 0-7, and by the end of the year Marvin Lewis was coming in to coach the team. Now one must wonder if Lewis will be around if the team has that type of season.
If the Bengals even want to finish at .500 in 2008, they would have to win 8 of their last 11 games. In other words – get ready for another sub-par .500 season in the Queen City. As for this Sunday, the Bengals made it close, but after they got within 17-16 with 14:02 left, the team got an onside kick, but a Chris Perry fumble at the 37 basically sealed the teams fate. "This game is on me," Perry said. "We had the momentum. We were going down to put points on the board and I let it go. The last two games (losses to Cleveland and Dallas) are on me. I didn't secure the ball well enough."
The Cowboys then scored on a Tony Romo to Terrell Owens 57-yard pass that made it 24-16. The Bengals again got within 2 at 24-22, but again, the Cowboys answered with Romo getting a lucky TD pass to Patrick Crayton that clearly was intended for Miles Austin with 1:52 to go to seal the fate of the cats.
Carson Palmer did play after all, and was okay, going 23-for-39 for 217 yards with two TD's and one pick. The Bengals put up just 269 yards of offense, as again the running game was nowhere to be found, going for just 61 yards on 23 carries (2.7 yards per carry). T.J. Houshmandzadeh led the team with both TD catches from Palmer and had 7 grabs for 85 yards.
In the end though, it was just another 'so close – but so far' effort from a team that simply has not played well enough to win in 08 so far. Next Sunday they get a taste of Brett Favre in a Jets uni as they travel to the Meadowlands for the second time in 2008 as take on the 2-2 Jets.
1 Comment
WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Bengals
Comment: "He's going to be a free agent. He's going to get paid. The Bengals won't pay him, which is a joke because he's one of the few guys on that team you could even begin to call a leader."

Mysterious 'Magic Islands' on Saturn's Titan Moon May Have Just Been Explained
Scientists had a few possible explanations for transient features spotted on Saturn's largest moon, but a new study points to a theory that may prove to be the most likely reason: Titan's seas are bubbling with nitrogen.
Back in 2013, a bright, mysterious feature on Saturn's moon Titan suddenly appeared in images taken by the Cassini mission's radar instrument. The strange anomaly, not seen in previous images, inexplicably emerged in Ligeia Mare, the second-largest of Titan's seas, located near its north pole.
During a follow-up flyby just days later, the feature - informally dubbed a "magic island" - had vanished. And then two similar anomalies were spotted the following year.
Scientists had a few possible explanations for the phenomenon, but a new study points to a theory that may prove to be the most likely reason: Titan's seas are bubbling with nitrogen, creating island-like features.
The frozen moon's seas aren't made of water. Titan is so cold, averaging −290 °F (−179 °C), that it could only have seas of liquid hydrocarbons like methane and ethane. The combined Cassini and Huygens missions determined that cold liquid methane rains from the skies on Titan and collects in rivers, lakes, and seas.
But how might so-called "islands" suddenly appear in such an environment? A recent experiment by scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory simulated the conditions on Titan, and it showed that just slight changes in temperature, air pressure, or composition can cause the nitrogen to rapidly separate out of a solution, just like the bubbling fizz when a bottle of champagne or soda is opened.
RELATED: Cassini Reveals Breathtaking New Views of Saturn's Beautifully Complex Rings
"Our experiments showed that when methane-rich liquids mix with ethane-rich ones - for example from a heavy rain, or when runoff from a methane river mixes into an ethane-rich lake - the nitrogen is less able to stay in solution," Michael Malaska of JPL, who led the study, said in a press statement.
"The basic idea is that lots of bubbles (or other phenomena) would give the same type of signal as solid land," Malaska added in an email to Seeker. "The radar would bounce off the bubbles and give a similar backscatter signature."
His team's study showed that significant amounts of nitrogen can be released by the mixing of hydrocarbons, and also when there is a change in temperature. The bubbling release of nitrogen, called exsolution, could create large enough features to be picked up by Cassini's instruments.
"We show that significant volumes of nitrogen gas will be released from Titan lake fluids on heating, and that significant volumes of nitrogen gas will be absorbed by Titan lake fluids on cooling," the team wrote in their paper, published in the journal Icarus. "The densities of the lake fluids will be affected by nitrogen dissolution. We also show that mixing of two cryogenic fluids of different composition can lead to the release of large amounts of nitrogen gas. This has implications for lake fluids, bubble formation, and geological phenomena."
RELATED: Cassini Gets Up Close and Personal With Saturn's 'Wavemaker' Moon Daphnis
"Thanks to this work on nitrogen's solubility, we're now confident that bubbles could indeed form in the seas, and in fact may be more abundant than we'd expected," said Jason Hofgartner of JPL, who serves as a co-investigator on Cassini's radar team and was a co-author of the study.
NASA has noted that a fizzy liquid like this could also cause problems for any potential future lander missions to Titan, especially a spacecraft that would have the ability to float on or swim through Titan's seas. Excess heat emanating from a probe might cause bubbles to form around its structures, such as propellers used for propulsion, making it difficult to steer or maintain the probe's stability.
Cassini's current mission is slated to end in September, and as the probe has moved closer to Saturn, the imaging team has recently released some stunning views of the planet's moons and rings. The closer orbit also allows for more surveys of Titan, and new images of the moon's lake region have just been released.

Some lakes on Titan are as big as the Great Lakes in the US or the Caspian Sea, which lies between Europe and Asia. Cassini has even captured sunlight glinting off of one of the lakes, with hints of waves on other lakes.
Cassini will make its final close flyby of Titan - the 127th such maneuver - on April 22. During the flyby, the spacecraft will sweep its radar beam over Titan's northern seas one last time. The radar team designed the upcoming observation so that if magic island features are present this time, their brightness may be useful for distinguishing between bubbles, waves, and floating or suspended solids.
The flyby also will turn Cassini's course to begin its final series of 22 dives through the gap between Saturn and its innermost rings, known as Cassini's Grand Finale.
The 20-year mission will end with the probe plunging into Saturn's atmosphere on September 15.

Notes: One of Archie Manning's sons. Honor student who graduated in three years. High-school All-America quarterback whom virtually every school wanted. Southeastern Conference Freshman of the Year in 1994, when he went 7-1 as a starter and completed 89-of-144 passes for 1,141 yards, 11 touchdowns and six interceptions and was sacked only five times. All-SEC and Davey O'Brien award finalist in '95, when he hit on 244-of-380 attempts for 2,954 yards with 22 touchdowns and four interceptions. Had an up-and-down '96 season due in part to his green and erratic line. Completed 243-of-390 passes for 3,287 yards, 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions and rushed for three scores. Then was 27-of-39 for 408 yards and four touchdowns vs. Northwestern in the Citrus Bowl. Heisman Trophy runner-up as a senior after completing 287-of-477 tries for 3,819 yards with 36 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. Injured his knee in the SEC championship game vs. Auburn. Had to be hospitalized after the leg wound got infected and spread all the way
down to his ankle and came back to play in the Orange Bowl, but it was obvious he was rusty and still in considerable discomfort. Did not work out at the combine because his knee was still far from 100 percent.
Positives: Great intangibles and work ethic. Fierce competitor. Knows how to prepare for games. Has a coach's understanding of the game and is a very quick study who knows how to read a defense and to avoid losses. Has gotten a lot bigger and stronger because he is driven to be the best he can be. Excellent height and vision. Top-notch technique and very good balance. Quick, compact throwing motion. Arm is strong enough for him to throw all the routes in the playbook. Throws a nice, catchable ball. Has been durable and dependable. Does not seem to let his mistakes weigh too heavily on his mind when he is playing. Should be ready to play in a hurry.
Negatives: Is not the runner, scrambler or improviser his father was as a rookie. A little tight in the hips and stiff. Not naturally smooth and fluid. Lacks a great arm. Can't throw off-balance with zip as Favre or Elway can. Needs to set his feet to zip the ball. Does not throw a really tight spiral much of the time, and the ball will wobble at times. Was taught to pump his feet and to keep them moving at almost all times in college and also to slightly underthrow the deep ball so his receiver could come back and make a play on it. Thus, he may need to break some old habits.
Summary: Is not a rare talent or great athlete as his father was or as John Elway and Brett Favre are. Yet, he's a very fine football player with a great mind for the game and, from the neck up, rivals Bernie Kosar as the smartest quarterback I ever saw in college.

Well it turns out that the time (and presumably money) spent by the Dobsonville Roodepoort Leratong and Johannesburg Taxi Association and Faraday Taxi Association on having the Bree Taxi Rank in central Joburg cleansed of evil spirits was well worth it.
The two associations were so fed up at the violent rivalry between their own members that they hired had a team of sangomas (they like to call themelves "traditional healers", but I prefer the term "witchdoctors", or better yet "charletans").
So, instead of addressing their members and adjusting their business processes to ensure that these people refrained from murdering each other in the spirit of wild-west competition, these two corporate entities decided to appeal to the magical powers of the ancestors to settle it all. But I digress.
After the cleasing ceremony on the 25th of October, the taxi rank has remained entirely free of violence! Wow! The ancestors totally did it! Their magic fixed the problem.
That was until Sunday night when in two separate incidents, three men were gunned down in what is believed to be taxi-related violence. Looks like those sangomas have their work cut out for them. Blessing one taxi tank doesn't seem to have done the trick. They'll have to bless them all, as well as every road, intersection and parking lot where taxis are likely to travel.
Good luck to them!

Throwback Thursday: Leonardo DiCaprio Received His First Oscar Nod 20 Years Ago
Leonardo DiCaprio received his fourth Oscar nomination Thursday, for his portrayal of seedy stockbroker Jordan Belfort in Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street.
DiCaprio is no newcomer when it comes to the Academy Awards, though. Twenty years ago, he made his Oscar debut when he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his work in 1993's What's Eating Gilbert Grape?
DiCaprio starred alongside Johnny Depp in the drama, directed by Lasse Hallström. Depp played Gilbert, a teen tasked with keeping his family together as he cares for his morbidly obese mother and his developmentally disabled little brother Arnie (DiCaprio). His responsibilities become onerous when he meets Becky (Juliette Lewis) and sees a chance for love.
The film was DiCaprio's breakout role after his big-screen debut in Critters 3 and a role on beloved '80s sitcom Growing Pains. Even though he was only 19 years old, his portrayal of Arnie was sensitive, complex and full of depth, belying his age, so there was no surprise when he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for the part.
While DiCaprio didn't take home the Oscar that night, it helped set him along the path to three more nominations, including nods for his roles in The Aviator, Blood Diamond and, now, The Wolf of Wall Street.
Watch him in the trailer for What's Eating Gilbert Grape?:

An Underwater Lab for Forecasting the Ocean's Future - Environment - GOODThe effects of climate change are hard to predict, at least with total precision. How quickly will rising temperatures wipe out forests? Will there be more volcanic eruptions and earthquakes? How will the oceans change as they absorb more carbon dioxide? Considering that increasing ocean acidity threatens to destroy coral reefs, that last question is pretty important.

Natural colour
Ideal hair colour to keep me going until the hairdresser is open again. Very natural colour
Impresses with ease of order
Really pleased with ease of order, packaging and delivery times. Thankyou
I was very pleased with the results from using this product. I used it on my already coloured and highlighted hair (medium blonde) and left it on for the maximum time, giving me a cooler and initially darker shade of brown, with great coverage and condition. Now after a number of washes it has faded to a lighter brown, but the coverage is stil excellent.
I have been using Clairol Medium Ash Brown semi permanent for around six months now. After quite a while looking for that perfect natural colour. I would rate it at the top. It covers my grey hair perfecty, this is the semi. It leaves my hair shiny and in very good condition. Also, dont need my hair thickener products anymore because it feels so much thicker since I started using it. So all in all, cheaper and a First Class product. Recommended to all my friends

Pictures (HR 3/28). Caro, who directed the critically acclaimed films "Whale Rider" and "North Country," will tell the story of Dornstein's brother David, who died with 269 others in the 1988 Pam Am Flight 103 airline terrorist bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland. The film also will follow the story of Ken Dornstein, who learns more about his older brother and comes to terms with the tragedy after discovering hundreds of thousands of words that David, a promising writer, left behind.Ferran gives Regard to CannesPARIS — French helmer Pascale Ferran will chair the Un Certain Regard jury at May's 60th annual Festival de Cannes, organizers said Wednesday (HR 3/29). Ferran's "Lady Chatterley" was an awards-season favorite this year, taking home five Cesar Awards, including best film, as well as France's prestigious Prix Louis-Delluc award. Ferran made her debut at the Cannes fest in 1990 with her short film "The Kiss," returned in 1992 as screenwriter for Arnaud Desplechin's In Competition title "The Sentinel" and took home the Camera d'Or Prize in 1994 for her first feature, "Coming to Terms With the Dead."China focus planned for '08 Rome fest ROME — The 2008 edition of the RomaCinemaFest will include a focus on China in honor of the Summer Olympic Games in Beijing, the office of Rome Mayor Walter Veltroni said last week (HR 3/28). Veltroni, in Beijing as part of a trade and culture mission, signed an agreement with city officials regarding the 2008 fest, which will include a focus on films made in China and those featuring the country prominently.Winstone digging in for 'Indy 4'Ray Winstone is joining the expedition for the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones adventures (HR 3/28). The actor, who stars as the title character in Robert Zemeckis' upcoming "Beowulf," has signed on for a major role in the untitled film being referred to as "Indy 4." Though the film's plot is being closely guarded, sources said Winstone will play star Harrison Ford's sidekick. Cate Blanchett already has boarded the project — to be produced by Lucasfilm and directed by Steven Spielberg — in an undisclosed starring role (HR 3/16).Whitaker on Searchlight's 'Night' watchForest Whitaker, fresh off his best actor Academy Award win for "The Last King of Scotland," is in final negotiations to reteam with Fox Searchlight for "The Night Watchman" (HR 3/28). Based on an original idea by James Ellroy, "Night" centers on a veteran LAPD cop (Keanu Reeves) who turns to alcohol after the death of his wife. The cop is forced to go up against his longtime mentor (Whitaker) when he is implicated in the execution of a fellow officer. David Ayer will direct.

If you happen to have stumbled here, you've probably noticed this blog has become rather stale. For whatever reasons, I've stopped blogging even though I'm still obsessed with cycling and more generally thinking about the role of cycling in urban life. Today, however, I don't feel any need to add to the many voices that are already blogging on these topics. In the last year, I've had a lot of big changes in my life. I decided to quit my Phd studies, I've started working full-time in the area of sustainable transport, and I've become a father to baby Eddy. It seems quite funny to look back and think that this blog started four years ago with a canadian flatmate and broken bicycle. Since then, bicycling has become such a big part of my life that I sometimes get introduced as 'that bike guy'. Bike culture (for want of a better term) in Sydney has only got bigger and better in the last few years. Its been an absolute thrill to be involved with the many communities of people who are passionate about cycling.
Happy cycling,

Lost irony
(taken from: http://theinspirationroom.com)
I was recently given a TV (just in time for the Giro and the Tour!). Nevertheless I have been seeing a lot more advertising. One ad that took my attention was BMW's uber-modernist commercial "The art of driving" in which a Z4 Roadster does circle work with painted tyres in a Mondrianian aesthetic. In the commercial we hear the following lyrics:
"Do you believe in love at first sight?Just another car ad right? Wrong... what was completely lost on me and perhaps many others was the ironic use of this song. Originally written by the UK's Black Box Recorder, "The art of driving" presents a much more sombre assessment of automobility as the lyrics contain a dialogue between a pushy man and women who cautions him for driving like such a jerk (cue more circle work in the Z4).
Do you believe in fate?
I believe the good things
Only come to those who wait"
"I wish you'd learn to slow down
You might get there at the end
Don't think the accelerating pedal
Is the man's best friend
You don't have to break the speed limit
You don't have to break your neck
Another dead boy-racer
Cut out from the wreak
You've been driving way too fast
You've been pushing way too hard
You've been taking things too far
Who do you think you are?"

Children's mobility
I've recently read Hillman, Adams and Whitelegg's (1990) One False Move... A study of children's independent mobility. If I could sum up the book, these two quotations would do it:
By chance, last week I was able to take my nephew Josh our for his first bike ride on his 3rd birthday. A thunderstorm came through so we had to do the ride in the basement of my sisters apartment. I picked up a 12inch Huffy that have been left at the Sydney Community Bike Co-op and attempted to make my own version of a FirstBike by removing the pedals and chainring. The idea behind the first bike is to encourage children to learn to steer and balance before they learn to pedal. Sadly the bike was slightly too large for Josh and he could only just touch the ground when sitting on it. I reckon in a month or two he'll have gained a couple of cms and be ready to roll. At 3 years old, there is plenty of time to learn.
Our analysis suggests that the increase in the personal freedom and choice arising from widing car ownership has been gained at the cost of a loss of freedom and choice for children. In our English survey's in 1971, we found that 80 per cent of 7 and 8 year old children where allowed to go to school on their own. By 1990, this figure had dropped to 9 per cent... Our survey suggests that it is principally the increase in motorised traffic that has been responsible for the decrese in children's independence.Furthermore
Transport policies in all motorised countries have been transforming the world for the benefit of motorists, but at the cost of children's freedom and independence to get about safely on their own - on foot and by the bicycle that most of them own. This change has gone largely unnoticed, unremarked, and unresisted.Another of Hillman, Adams and Whitelegg's claims is that campaigns to promote traffic safety for children have placed an unfair burden on children and parents to 'wear' the dangers of motorised traffic rather than address the dominance of motorised traffic as the source of danger i.e. by reducing traffic or slowing it down. Traffic was not really a problem in my own childhood. I was lucky to grow up on a street that had very little traffic in a sleepy town in the Blue Mountains. As kids, we felt like the road was ours and it was a place in which we rode our bikes, played cricket, tennis, and soccer late into the afternoon only occasionally having to stop to let cars pass.

On dromocracy
If you stand in a room with 10 bicycle advocates and ask them what are their three greatest demands, chances are: infrastructure, driver education, and lower speed limits will probably rate highly. The final demand for lower speed limits is often stated but also resisted as 'pie in the sky' thinking amongst policy makers. Culturally, we hold onto a belief in 'the inalienable right to speed' not matter what the consequences may be in terms of deaths on the road, the environment, transport ineffectiveness, and the impoverishment of urban street space. There are resistances to speed in places such as 'school zones', but by and large these are exceptions to the rule that speed dominates. The French philosopher and urbanist, Paul Virilio, coined a term "dromocracy" which describes this relationship between power and speed. 'Dromos' come from the Greek word for race (hence we have velodromes). 'Dromocracy' therefore is the power to rule by speed. According to Virilio:
Every society is founded on a relation of speed. Every society is dromocratic. If you take Athenian society, you'll notice that at the top there's the hierarch, in other words the one who can charter a trireme. Then there's the horseman—the one who can charter a horse, to use naval language. After that, there's the hoplite, who can get ready for war, "arm himself"—in the odd sense that the word armament has both a naval and a martial connotation—with his spears and his shield as a vector of combat. And finally, there's the free man and the slave who only have the possibilities of hiring themselves out or being enlisted as energy in the war-machine—the rowers. In this system (which also existed in Rome with the cavalry), he who has the speed has the power. (Virilio and Lotringer, Pure War. Translated by M. Polizzotti. New York: Semiotext(e). 1997, pp. 49-50) (qtd at Theosblog)Jason Adams also writes in his MA thesis on Virilio:
Speed has never been distributed evenly, but has always functioned in the form of a hierarchy, such that the more powerful sectors of society are those that move at faster speeds, while the less powerful sectors are those that move at slower speeds, an observable phenomena from the Concorde Jet of the elite to the Greyhound Bus of the poor… Virilio contends that, as is also the case with wealth, the essence of speed is power; as he elaborates, "power and speed are inseparable ...".I think Virilio's concept of 'dromocracy' is really helpful in thinking about the ways in which speed is directly related to social divisions and power relations, however this phenomena is rarely acknowledged in transport policy speak. It is a particular pressing issue for those advocating for more bicycle friendly cities in which cars slow down allowing for other forms of street life to take place. However, if 'power and speed are inseparable', there does seem to be a sort of fatalism in Virilio that no-one can put the brakes on. Then again, the relationship between speed and the bicycle is less than clear. The Slow Bicycle Movement celebrates a resistance against the desire to speed. In contrast, the concept of 'effective speed' indicates that bicycles are effectively much faster than most other modes of transport.

Reading and riding
I love to read, I love to ride.
This week I've been reading Paul Fournel's Need for the bike. Fournel is a member of the Oulipo collective of avant-guard French writers and he brings a literary panache to writing about cycling. Here is an extract from the novel:
This week I've been reading Paul Fournel's Need for the bike. Fournel is a member of the Oulipo collective of avant-guard French writers and he brings a literary panache to writing about cycling. Here is an extract from the novel:
"And then one morning I know longer heard the sound of someone running behind me, the sound of rhythmic breathing at my back. The miracle had taken place. I was riding. I never wanted to put my feet back down for fear that the miracle wouldn't happen again. I was in seventh heaven.In a similar vein, I've been listening to podcasts of the UK's BikeShow on the best of cycling writing. The program discusses the development of a new magazine called The Ride Journal that works to publish such writing. Rather than getting fixated over cycling products, the journal aims to focus on the experiences of the rider. You can also hear about some haute écrit velo in the magazine Rouleur. If only I could read the original in French.
I did a tour around the house, proving to myself that I could do four right turns (for a number of weeks I preferred turning right). I was no longer afraid of anything. I rocketed past the clump of nettles that usually scared me; I rode panic-free down the long lonely road behind the house and came out in front again, in triumph, but still unable to raise my hand in a victory salute.
I've never gotten over this miracle.
Learning to swim didn't move me like this, and it was really only learning to read that equalled the intensity of learning to ride. Within a few months, then, I learned, in that order, riding and reading. At the age of five, that Christmas, I had arrived: I knew what my work would be, and my leisure"

Howe Park
39th and Vermont
Gary, IN
24 January, 2015
With help from the Gary Park Department two Chicago-based experimental radio outfits, Waveguide and Radius, turned Howe Park into a performance and transmission site.
Michael Esposito, born in Gary, performs with EVP recordings he made in the vacant Indiana Bell building on Ridge Road, a block west of Broadway. The performance can be heard at Radius episode 59: Phantom Plastics.
Following the performance attendees travelled to the Bell building, some on foot some by car, all with radios tuned to 88.9FM. Sounds from the recent Waveguide radio workshops held at Arts On Grant filled the neighborhood's air.
As I caught up with some of our guests, sounds from recent #BlackLivesMatter actions in Hammond and Gary filled the neighborhood. And then the poetry of our recently departed and dearly missed Kelechukwu Brnfre. Glen Park, once a neighborhood that threatened to secede from Gary, was now a platform in the struggle against misery. I'm deeply grateful for all who made the moment happen.
While the event concluded and guests mingled in front of the pavilion, a few of us admired the stands of milkweed growing along the chain-link fence enclosing an abandoned swimming pool now being colonized by cattails and other marshy grasses. Thinking what a wonderful sunken garden it would make we shook loose the remaining milkweed seeds.

Last Trading Session: Exactly, as predicted by EquityPandit, Indian Stock Market opened flat for the day. As EquityPandit told that some big movement can't be ruled out today and traders should go long with 8320 as stoploss and exactly same happened. Nifty saw some downside but retreated from 8349 levels and moved sharply positive. Nifty, BankNifty and Sensex made record highs yesterday and traders who followed EquityPandit's advice might have earned huge profits for the day. BankNifty closed just below EquityPandit's predicted resistance levels of 17660. Sensex also saw strong resistance right below EquityPandit's predicted resistance levels of 28240 and lows right on EquityPandit's predicted support levels of 27920 like a dot. Finally, Indian Stock market closed positive for the day.
Today: Indian Stock Market to open flat with positive bias. Analysis would still remain same. Nifty, BankNifty and Sensex would continue to make record highs, cyclically. Indian Stock Market is awaiting a correction from long time to stablize the economic system and that is the biggest threat among the investors and traders. Traders should trade in small quantity and investors should start booking profits in part. Until Nifty doesn't see some correction, it can't be considered as long term trend. Every market requires some correction after a sharp positive movement to get the trend stable and then continue. But for now, traders should still consider going long until Nifty holds 8400-8350 levels by closing. FIIs were net buyers of Rs.656.37 crores whereas DIIs were net sellers of Rs.247.86 crores in Indian Stock Market on Monday. Nifty would see strong support at 8400-8350-8320 levels whereas strong resistance would be seen at 8450-8500 levels. Since, EquityPandit's support and resistance levels always meet accuracy; hence traders are suggested to follow them for good profits.
NSE Nifty: (8431) The support for the Nifty is at 8400-8350-8320 and the resistance to the up move is at 8450-8500 levels.
NSE BankNifty: (17640) The support for the BankNifty is at 17470-17380-17200 and the resistance to the up move is at 17740-17840-18000 levels.
BSE Sensex: (28178) The support for the Sensex is at 28000-27920-27800 and the resistance to the up move is at 28240-28370-28500 levels.

Life Less Frightening
Suffering from something
We're not sure of
In a world
There is no cure for
These lives we live
Test negative for happiness
Flat line, no pulse, but eyes open
Single file like soldiers on a mission
If there's no war outside our heads
Why are we losing?
[Chorus: x2]
I don't ask for much (Life less)
Truth be told I'd settle (frightening)
For a life less frightening, (Life less)
A life less frightening (frightening)
Hang me out to dry
I'm soaking
With the sins of knowing
What's gone wrong
But doing nothing
I still run
Time again I have found myself stuttering
Foundations pulled out from under me
This breath is wasted on them all
Will someone answer me
[Chorus x2]
Is there a God tonight
Up in the sky
Or is it empty just like me? (Just like me)
A place where we can hide
Out from the night
Where you are all I see (Where you are all I see)
So blow a kiss goodbye then close your eyes
Tell me what you see (Tell me what you see)
A lifetime spent inside this dream of mine
Where you are all I see
[Chorus x2]

We could make lots of jokes about this show, but there are plenty of people who are going to start lining up right now to make sure they catch every minute of Donnie and the boys. And that's fine. Everybody deserves music that makes them happy, and making fun of grown men singing songs like "Right Stuff" is just low hanging fruit. But if you must go to this, make sure to get there early for Boyz II Men. "Motown Philly" totally holds up.
Sunday, June 2 at Best Buy Theater, Tomahawk, Buke and Gase, $32.50
The Scene
Tomahawk counts among its members Mike Patton of Faith No More and Mr. Bungle, Duane Denison of The Jesus Lizard and John Stanier of Helmet. These are all musicians that specialize in making artful racket, goosing traditional hard rock with odd time signatures, avant-garde informed arrangements and lots and lots of noise. Oddly, Tomahawk's new album Oddfellows is one of the most straight ahead albums any of these gentlemen has ever put their name to. Which is fine. Sometimes you just want to hear Mike Patton knock out a giant chorus over a swinging beat. Tomahawk is a band that doesn't have to try too hard to be great, and are perhaps at their best when doing less.
Saturday, June 1 at Spike Hill, The Ballet, The Smittens, Making Marks, Silkies, Free
This bill is part of NYC Popfest, which will ensnarl the city next week in a sweater-clad hug. Jangle pop legends like The Bats and Close Lobsters will headline shows during the event, but we wanted to point out this bill because a) it's free and b) these are some of the most adorable band names we've encountered in some time. The Smittens AND Silkies on one bill? They're practically daring you to scoff or swoon, depending on your twee toleration levels.

Pitt's Schools of Nursing, Education Rank High in U.S. News 2013 Best Online Programs Rankings
PITTSBURGH—The online master's degree program of the University of Pittsburgh's School of Nursing ranked No. 5 and the online master's degree program of the Pitt School of Education ranked No. 31 among U.S. public institutions of higher education in the newly published U.S. News & World Report 2013 Best Online Education Programs rankings.
This is the second year that U.S. News has evaluated online higher education programs and the first year that it has published overall numerical rankings of those online programs.
"With the number of schools offering fully online degree programs nearly double what it was 10 years ago … more students can unlock the benefits of higher education without quitting their jobs or uprooting their families," wrote U.S. News education reporter Kelsey Sheehy in the introductory text accompanying the rankings tables. "But similar to brick-and-mortar colleges, not all online degree programs are created equal. U.S. News aims to help students evaluate their options with the 2013 Best Online Education Programs rankings," Sheehy added.
According to U.S. News, "Only degree-granting programs offering courses that are 100 percent online were considered for the rankings. These programs were assigned an overall numerical rank based on the following factors: student engagement, faculty credentials and training, and student services and technology. Admissions selectivity also factored in to the rankings for all online master's degree programs."
In 2012, just the Pitt online master's degree program in education was considered. For that year's publication, only selected individual factors within each program were ranked. Within the Faculty Credentials and Training component, Pitt's online education program advanced to No. 5 among all schools, public and private, in 2013 from No. 68 in 2012, and in the Student Services and Technology category, education jumped to 32nd place among all schools in 2013 from 78th in 2012. In 2013, Pitt's online nursing master's degree program achieved a ranking of 4th among all schools, public and private, in the Student Services and Technology category.

HAVANA -- Cuba apparently experienced a phenomenon similar to, though smaller, than the meteorite that detonated over Russia last week, island media reported.
Startled residents described a bright light in the sky and a loud explosion that shook windows and walls, reports said. No injuries or damage were reported.
In a video from a state TV newscast posted on the website CubaSi late Friday, unidentified residents of the central city of Rodas, near Cienfuegos, said the explosion was impressive. "My home shook completely," said a woman in the video. "I had never heard such a strange thing."
Marcos Rodriguez, whom the video identified as a specialist in anthropology, said all signs point to a meteorite.
According to scientists, five to 10 smaller meteorites hit the planet each year. Larger events like the one over Russia are more rare, and some experts said it may have been the biggest such blast since another meteor hit Siberia in 1908.
Also Friday, residents of the San Francisco Bay Area reported seeing a fireball in the sky that scientists said was probably a piece of space rock. Another meteor in the same area last October caused a loud sonic boom. -- AP

Short Personal Bio:
I am the sixth grade homeroom and middle school mathematics teacher (grades 5-8) at St. Justin Martyr. I am very excited to be apart of this community of teachers, parents, and students and I am looking forward to all of our activities this school year. Just to give a brief introduction about myself, I am a credentialed teacher from California State University, Long Beach. Through Cal State, I have earned my Bachelors in Education and Masters in Education with an option in Mathematics. Prior to this position, I worked as a substitute teacher in the Garden Grove District for three years and a private tutor for more than eight years.
Tech In The Classroom:
Students in sixth grade each have their own iPads that they are responsible before. They use their iPads to take notes in both math and reading on notability. They also use Google Docs to write assignments and turn them in on Google Classroom. The students also have an online tech-book for social studies and science where they can read the content of the lesson.
Aside from the daily content, students are encouraged to use their iPads as a resource for additional help. Students each have an ST math account that exposes them to different math concepts at their own pace and level. They use spelling city to learn, review, and test their spelling words. They use Epic to read online books at their level. They take AR tests on their iPads when finished reading a book. They use the internet as a research tool help them throughout projects.

On Tuesday, October 28 the 3rd and 4th graders went to Topeka to visit the Kansas Museum of History and the State Capitol building. As the students walked into the Kansas Museum of History, they saw several statues of famous Kansans such as Amelia Earhart, President Dwight Eisenhower and William Allen White. They were in awe when they walked into the main gallery of the museum and saw a restored Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe steam locomotive. Next, they toured the locomotive, dining car, sleeping car and passenger car. They enjoyed the Native American section, with displays of early life through the early 1900s. The teepee and bison exhibits were two of their favorites.
They ate lunch outside the museum, and the students enjoyed playing on the unique playground equipment. After lunch they toured the Capitol building. The view of the outside of the Capitol dome was really awesome, as was the inside. They visited the old Supreme Court, and all the students got to sit in a judge's chair. They also saw the House of Representatives, the Senate, and walked across the glass floor in the State Library. The murals throughout the building were enjoyed by all.

CRM 4.0 VPC 2009 Networking Fix
On April 18th we released a new Dynamics CRM 4.0 VPC to our partners. I love a lot about the new VPC including tons of data, dashboards, and pre-configured CRM Accelerators.
It took me several weeks to find the time to get to really work with the image. I needed it last week to delve into the Event Management Accelerator for a customer. I am impressed with many things about it – it is faster and more complete than any previous VPC that I've seen. I'm also glad to have Visual Studio 2008 with .NET 3.5 SP1 installed. And having SQL Server 2008 is an added bonus.
Anyway, all of this brings me to the purpose of this post. I was planning to add an enhancement to the image around integrating Virtual Earth with CRM when I realized that I didn't have an internet connection from within the VPC image. It took me quite a while to figure out how to get the internet access working correctly and so I thought that I'd share that info with the community.
The simple answer is that the default "Local Area Connection" has a hard-coded IP address, gateway, and DNS server. You should blank out the Default gateway setting. This forces the VPC to use the gateway from "Local Area Connection 2". Local Area Connection 2 should be mapped to your host PC's active internet connection.
I spent quite a while trying to enable one connection and disabling the other. CRM requires the hardcoded internet IP address connection but the gateway was preventing windows server from accessing your true internet gateway via the second adapter. So, blanking out the gateway was all that it took to fix the problem.
Hopefully this will save someone else time. If you haven't done so, I strongly recommend that you download and check out the new image.

For a child to find out that their parents are separating can be heartbreaking. It is natural for your young child to feel anxious, it is a normal stage of development. Separation anxiety can fade away over time however, if your child's anxiety continues or increases, your child may have separation anxiety disorder. Although this condition may require professional treatment, there is still a lot you can do to help.
What is Separation Anxiety Disorder in children?
Separation anxiety disorder is NOT part of a normal development stage in a child's life. It is a problem that is serious and emotional, and can cause extreme distress when the child is away from the primary caregiver.
Separation anxiety disorder can be measured by the intensity of your child's fears, and whether these fears affect their normal activities. The thought of being away from either parent can be very hard on some children. They may go to extreme lengths and lie about being unwell to avoid attending school.
What can cause Separation Anxiety Disorder in children?
The following are common causes of separation anxiety disorder in children:
What are the common symptoms of separation anxiety disorder?: Worries and fears
What are the common symptoms of separation anxiety disorder?: Refusals and sickness
What is the best way to help the situation?
The following tips can help you create a stable and supportive environment for your child.
If you have noticed any of these symptoms in your child whilst reading this, please contact your doctor for professional help. It is important, within any separation, that the child is always put first and their health and well-being is protected.

Disc-LAME-er: There will be cliches, self-quoting, photos and a few words strung together to attempt an explanation as to why my last post was in January. But all that is lame. So… how about we just enjoy moving forward from here? Work for you? Awesome! 😀
Okay, so let me start by saying that life can get the better of us at times. I'm not immune to its affects. It has certainly gotten the better of me. Well, at least it did back in January when I was laid off from my job of 6+ years. Lots of wonderful things have happened and I honestly meant to chronicle it all. But we all know how that turned out. 😛 I just hate the fact that when I finally come up for air, months have passed. 😦 So this is a public apology… especially to certain people who may have felt slighted by the circumstances of my life. I've been absent from most social media, with the exception of photos posted to Instagram that are cross-posted to Twitter and Facebook. (So follow me on those sites to stay up-to-date on my crazy, awesome life!) 😉
That being said… here's what has been going on for the past 8 months.
January – I was laid off from my job. But instead of seeing it as a setback, my wife and I saw it as an opportunity. I've since gone back to school, working to obtain my degree in Human Development.
February – We've been working together to homeschool our four younger children.I've always loved to teach, and now I can
play and active role in the overall education of my children! We alternate days of teaching the children and being full-time writers. We get to enjoy our children, as well as the beauty of each day.
This month we also celebrated Aaron's 8th birthday!
March – My oldest son finished his run as the lead in USC's "Six Degrees of Separation". He was brilliant in the role and I couldn't have been more proud.
April – In April we celebrated, not just one, but two birthdays! A kid turning 2
…and another turning 4.
This was also the month that my amazing wife ran one of the most intense marathons! It was the SoCal Ragnar Relay Series! It consisted of 12 amazing women who came together to run all day and all through the night from Huntington Beach to San Diego! That's like 200 miles! I was so proud of her and her team. We actually collaborated on a little video that chronicles the journey. You can view it here: Ragnar Relay – Lola's Moving Co. Video.
May – This month, one of the highlights was my only daughter and I having another one of our Daddy/Daughter dates. She is just the most warm-hearted person ever, and I am so thankful that she is mine and I am hers. ❤
June – As I mentioned briefly, we are both pursuing our dreams of becoming published writers! Well, this month we made that dream a reality by publishing my wife's first (of many to come) book! She started working on it in March, and in about three months time, she finished writing it, and together, we self-published it through Amazon.com. It's titled, "How To Shop Mostly Organic At The 99¢ Only Store" and it's fantastic! It gives in-depth pointers on finding Organic, Gluten-Free and Non-GMO foods, so that you can live well and get the most out of your shopping trips to the 99¢ Only Stores. Click on the book to check it out. It's available as both a hard copy and e-book!
This was also the month that my second oldest son graduated from High School.
He is now in his Freshman year at Fresno State University. Wow… time really flies. I can remember when he was 9 like it was yesterday…
July – This month we enjoyed some good ol' fashioned family time. You know, just being silly…
…or roughing it in the woods, camping with 20+ family and friends from our church. It's one of the things we most look forward to during the summer. This was our 5th annual camping trip and each year it only gets better.
August – This month we sent our second oldest off to college, and finally had an opportunity to get away, just the two of us, for our wedding anniversary. The first time we've been able to do so in more then five years! We went to Ojai, CA and stayed at the Capri Hotel. It was a dazzling few days (with intense heat to match) that we both loved. 30 mile bike rides. Midnight pool swimming. Sushi for lunch and frozen yogurt runs in the evening. One of the best times I've had in like… forever! lol
There's a ton more I could say, but I'm hoping that this will help to spark my writing and get me back to being more consistent with my blog. Thank you for everyone who's stuck around. I won't keep you waiting like that ever again. 😉

TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. - Continental U.S. North American Aerospace Defense (NORAD) Command Region fighters will be protecting the skies during the G-8 Summit at Camp David, Md.
Air Force fighter jets will be on alert during the event May 18-19 enforcing the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) zone during the summit.
Lt. Gen. Sid Clarke, Continental U.S. NORAD Region (CONR) commander, explained how the Continental U.S. NORAD Region provides air defense for the protection of the continental United States, to include special events such as this year's G-8 Summit.
"CONR is charged with defending the airspace over the continental United States every minute of the day, and we routinely provide enhanced air defense at special events like this year's G-8 Summit," General Clarke said. "Pilots in the Camp David area are used to seeing Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR) zones over Camp David, but what makes the G-8 Summit a little different is that the Federal Aviation Administration's TFR is larger than normal. It's very important that the general aviation community remember to check their Notice to Airmen and fly informed!"
In preparation for the G-8 Summit, the FAA will be imposing a TFR over Camp David. All aviators are advised to check the Notices to Airmen (NOTAMS) as required with a special focus on TFRs.
The Continental U.S. NORAD Region has enforced TFR's throughout the United States since the beginning of Operation Noble Eagle, the command's response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. CONR activities will have minimal impact on aircraft in the area and are not in response to any specific threat.

Newspapers Remain a Top Teaching Tool in ESL Education
Three-quarters of ESL (English as a second language) educators are still using newspapers to teach English in the digital age, according to a new study.
Research by Kaplan International Colleges, a leading provider of English courses, revealed that 75% of ESL teachers have used newspapers in class to help their students improve their knowledge and understanding of the English language.
It may come as a surprise to some that physical newspapers are still relevant in an era when classrooms are expected to be equipped with interactive whiteboards, laptops and iPads— but newspapers remain a valuable, cost-effective and portable ESL teaching tool because they can be used to prompt a number of language learning exercises across a wide variety of topics such as current affairs, sports and the weather.
Kaplan surveyed teachers from 40 countries to discover what tools they use to enhance their lessons and found that the most popular publication among those who used newspapers in class was The New York Times (17%), which has a record 108 Pulitzer Prizes and a variable reading level.
The New York Times was the only American newspaper in the top five most popular publications and was closely followed by the British daily newspapers The Times (16%), The Guardian (12%), The Metro (11%) and The Daily Mail (6%).
"The New York Times has a long-standing commitment to education, dating back to the 1930's when Iphigene Ochs Sulzberger responded to teachers' requests to receive newspapers for classroom use," said Yasmin Namini, senior vice president, marketing and circulation, The New York Times.
"Since the launch of our Newspaper in Education program in the succeeding years, iterations of that effort continue today and educators all over the world—including those in ESL classrooms—integrate The Times into their lesson plans to help sharpen their students' reading and writing skills, spark discussion and foster critical thinking."
The results of Kaplan's "How to Teach English" survey have been published as an infographic.The infographic page has quotes covering all aspects of the research.
Other survey results include:
- 86% of ESL teachers surveyed have used music in class: The Beatles being the most popular band (used by 40% of those surveyed).
- 81% have used English-speaking celebrities to engage students: Barack Obama being the most popular.
- 76% have used Movies in class: The Harry Potter series being the most popular.
- 60% have used TV shows in class: Mr Bean being the most popular.
- 34% have used the Radio in class: The BBC World Service being the most popular.
- 33% have used Comics in class: Spider-Man being the most popular.
- 24% have used Computer Games in class: The Sims being the most popular.
Kaplan surveyed 503 ESL teachers from: the UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, Russia, India, South Korea, Turkey, Georgia, Germany, Brazil, Canada, Hong Kong, Ireland, Greece, Vietnam, Spain, Cuba, France, Taiwan, Thailand, Azerbajan, Pakistan, Tunisia, Mexico, Iran, Ukraine, Jamaica, Malaysia, Romania, Poland, Argentina, Czech Republic, Latvia, Uganda, Malta, Singapore and Chile.

Errata: (book version only)
The finishing section of the pattern should read as follows:
"Hold the two needles parallel in the left hand, with WRONG sides of the two panels together. Use the three-needle bind-off…" Pattern currently says right sides together, which would remove the distinctive ridges.
The chart is 8 sts short on all sizes, as 2 repeats of the 4 st pattern have been omitted. The written instructions for this aspect are correct.
Do you need help with this pattern? We have a specific discussion thread in the Wormhead's Hats group where you can ask any questions.

Everybody has hair somewhere, the only place most people want it is on their heads this leads to regular hair removal rituals for both men and women. Did you know that modern technology can almost eradicate nuisance hair for most people? Get laser treatment and throw away your razors.
London, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/22/2012 -- Before laser treatment, hair removal commonly involved at least one of the below methods maybe some people practice or two or even more hair removal methods. Some people are finding the can permanently stop the annoying hair removal rituals by using laser treatment. With laser removal high energy light bursts are used, these actually destroy hair follicles located beneath the skin, hair removal using lasers is very long-lasting and even permanent in some cases.
Laser treatment does not remove the hair instantly, it takes about 10 days for the dead hair to fall out. After 4-6 sessions most patients see very minimal hair growth on the treated area.
Waxing – Warm wax is applied, covered with a strip of fabric and then ripped off. The main issue with waxing is it's quite painful.
Shaving – Everyone knows what shaving involves, it's a very a cheap and effective method but results are usually very short-lived and the hairs will be more visible as the grow back.
Cream – Applying a depilatory cream will dissolve hairs. The hair can regrow quickly and have a stubbly appearance, creams can sometimes irritate sensitive skin can cause a red rash.
Unfortunately laser hair removal is not for everyone, some skin types and hair colours are not suitable for the treatment, people with very dark skin can even suffer burning so it is important to choose a reputable clinic.
One London laser clinic has invested in specialist equipment for hair removal, using a dedicated hair removal laser means the treatment does not hurt, not all clinics use this kind of laser, if your clinic uses a more general purpose laser the treatment will feel as though somebody is flicking you with an elastic band.
http://www.cityhairremoval.com are specialists in laser hair removal, they have staff who are highly trained in the use of laser technology, the London hair removal clinic say they have performed 15000 hours of laser hair removal.
