The Avett Brothers | Grace Potter & the Nocturnals | Matt & Kim | RTB2 | Oil Boom | The Roomsounds and more Gexa Energy Pavilion June 1, 2013
The rain at KXT's Summer Cut started (for the second time) around 9 p.m., partway through Grace Potter & the Nocturnals' set. It sent half the people sitting out on the lawn running, either home or to the cover of Gexa Energy Pavilion's actual pavilion.
But a little rain wasn't stopping a group of East Dallas parents, whose spirits improved with the worsening weather. They donned garbage bags, which given how ripped they ended up can't have been much of a deterrent. That didn't matter. They sat in their rented lawn chairs and laughed, giddy from the beer and the weather and feeling self-effacing.
"We have kids," said one father. "We don't get to shows too often. We rented lawn chairs."

His friend chimed in, grinning. "Yeah, but look at around at everyone without chairs. They all look like they shat their pants."
As at every amphitheater venue everywhere in the country, the most fun at Gexa Energy Pavilion is had out on the lawn. Maybe not specifically -- the people up close are often diehards for one band or another. And maybe they get a chance to achieve live music transcendence down there where they can actually make out the expression on the faces of a band they love. But generally, the atmosphere under the metal roof with the concrete walls is much more stifled. Fewer new friends are made. Assigned seats will do that to you.
So the sound is kind of a muddy mess out there on the grass and the sightlines are crap. All these bands will play a club somewhere in Dallas in the next couple years; go to that if you're looking for nuance. What a festival like Summer Cut offers is the chance to sample some music while you spend a day inside a gated area where real-world responsibilities do not enter. That's why the best seats in the house are out in the grass, where you can smell the sunscreen and pot smoke, and the beer vendors zig-zag through the blankets. And when the rain comes, everyone just pokes three holes in a trash bag or huddles close to someone with an umbrella and the camaraderie only improves.
There were two stages at Summer Cut this year -- the big one and a small pop-up stage on the west side of the amphitheater. That's where all the local bands played, out by the food trucks and the bathrooms and the climate-controlled VIP area. It's better than sticking them on the main stage, actually, where they'd get to play three songs to a crowd leaving for a bathroom break or a beer refill between touring bands.
Instead, KXT all-stars The Roomsounds, Oil Boom and RTB2 were right where everyone was headed anyway. (The Orbans would have played last on the side stage, but the rain kept them from playing at all). These are all veteran rock bands who know how to catch the ear of someone who never thought he'd listen to local music. They also all brought fans, and if you're a regular listener of KXT you've heard them all anyway. So theirs were surprisingly triumphant sets.
Oil Boom, playing between Dawes and Matt & Kim, started with an audience of maybe 50 scattered, unfocused people. They drew those people close and earned the cheers of several hundred more. The Fort Worth trio is prepping a 7-inch for release later this year -- they sounded particularly crisp on Saturday, adding nimble guitar work and hairpin rhythms to the Americana I've heard from them in the past. They certainly had more fun than Dawes. The L.A. band takes great pride in the perfection of their live shows -- in the half dozen times I've seen them I don't think I've ever caught a missed note or errant entrance. That precision is important. It allows singer and songwriter Taylor Goldsmith's detailed narratives to envelop his audience.
So they were visibly frustrated with some technical issues early on and slightly detached until the end of their half-hour set, which nevertheless hit the highlights from their three excellent albums. During penultimate song "It's A Little Bit of Everything," the crowd was dotted with rapturous fans mouthing every word. Goldsmith sang, "I think that love is so much easier than you realize/If you can give yourself to someone, then you should," and a man extended his hand to the woman sitting beside him.
Summer Cut was a good place to take a date this year. The lineup was full of romantics of all flavors, from the small gestures of Dawes to the grandiose ones of The Avett Brothers. There was the chemistry and enthusiasm of actual couple Matt & Kim and the hippy lust of Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, whose two biggest hits involve the repeating phrases "Ohh-la-la" and "I've got the medicine that everybody wants," over and over again.

Admittedly, some 80 percent of songs ever written are love songs in one way or another. So maybe it was more than the bands on stage that gave Gexa such an amorous vibe this weekend. Maybe it was just the goodwill generated by a summer afternoon in what must surely qualify as a green space by Dallas standards.
Either way, it was a good day to be in Fair Park (unless you are The Orbans, in which case it was kind of a bummer of a day). Matt & Kim, who had the first of three hour-long headlining sets, remain the most consistently enthusiastic musicians I have ever seen. They must prepare for shows like athletes -- the wattage of their personalities onstage could power the Technicolor Omni. I picture them bouncing on the balls of their feet, yelling encouragement at each other in the green room, before someone opens the door to tell them it's time and they sprint out, screaming.
They were the most dynamic performers, as they are on pretty much any bill anywhere, but the rest weren't far behind. Dawes was the last band of the day to basically stand behind microphones and play, and they were only a quarter of the way through the schedule. Grace Potter spent the entire hour with her hair flying behind her frantic movement. Ryan Thomas Becker, of RTB2, was at one point playing guitar while lying on his back. Seth Avett has a hip shake so mighty it might still be capable of raising eyebrows on network TV.

Denver Home Values Estimates
What is a Home Valuation Estimate
Our home valuation site can help you gain knowledge about your home and the surrounding market conditions. Knowing the value of your real estate in Denver and surrounding areas may be necessary for many reasons over the duration of your ownership; especially when you are preparing to list your property for sale. As a home seller in the present Denver Colorado real estate having a licensed broker perform a market analysis so you know what your home is worth to properly determine a sales price is the most useful application of a home valuation. Find out the value of your home now.
Other sold or for sale properties in your neighborhood may help you determine a fair price for your house, yet they do not necessarily reflect the real value of your home. The value of your home is not always equal to what other homes in the area are selling or have sold for. For example, let's say the average sales price of a house in your neighborhood might be $450,000; the value of your home and the final sales price could be higher or lower. There are many variables; for instance, a potential home buyer may find a costly problem in your home during an inspection that you might not have been aware of. Or they may find your home loaded with upgrades even though it may be similar to others in the area in style or model. Depending on many situations the true value of your home could be lower or higher than actual sales prices in the area.
What is the Difference Between Home Valuation and an Appraisal
As a home seller, you may or may not be required to obtain an appraisal as a condition of the sale of your home. An appraisal is most often required by a mortgage lender when the purchaser is applying for a commercial, VA or FHA loan to secure the funds to close on your home. The choice of who performs the appraisal is often dictated by the buyer's lending institution and is generally reported on a standardized form like the Uniform Residential Appraisal Report. This is to ensure the mortgage lender that the amount they loan on the property in addition to down payment requirements is equal to true home value.
Appraisal reports are typically used to set the sale price of a property as they form the basis for mortgage loans. An appraisal report contains much greater detail than a home valuation or market analysis; as it is the process of developing an opinion of value for real property by a certified, licensed appraiser. The appraiser takes into account many factors regarding the uniqueness of your home, its location as well as the cause of the sale.
Appraisal reports are typically based on several different types of value as well as using one of the three cost approaches to determine value.
1. The cost approach based on the buyer will not pay more for a property than it would cost to build an equivalent.
2. The sales comparison approach; this compares a property's characteristics with those of comparable properties that have recently sold in similar transactions.
3. The income approach is similar to the methods used for financial valuation, securities analysis or bond pricing.
Neither the buyer or the seller are bound to the appraisal report; as homes do not always sell for their appraised value. The actual sales price on a home is determined what a buyer will pay for a home and what a seller will sell it for. At times homes may sell for more or even less depending on the particular circumstances.

SUNSET, TX (CBS 11 I-Team) – A now-shut down California Company is facing a $300,000 judgment after the I-team discovered it took money from parents to store their children's stem cells and then closed its doors.
In late 2011, Crystal Prince of Sunset, Texas contacted the I-team because she thought her then 2-year-old daughter, Trinity, was facing a life threatening illness.
"I have cried and cried for my daughter."
Prince believed the umbilical cord she had saved when Trinity's brother was born was the answer. The problem was—she couldn't find that potentially life-saving blood or the company, BioBancUSA in California, which she had been paying to store it.
"It's a piece of hope I hold on to with that cord blood. If that cord blood is gone, that hope, that help, that chance is gone."
Parents are typically asked before childbirth if they want to store their baby's umbilical cord. Doctors believe it may hold the cure to up to 80 life threatening diseases. Parents have an option of a public bank, which is not donor specific, or a private bank. Private banks typically charge monthly or annual fees to store the blood. Parents are given an assurance their baby's blood will be there if they need it. But, Prince says she could not get BioBancUSA to return her calls.
She turned to the I-team. We traveled to Northern California where we discovered what was once BioBanc USA. We found the headquarters in a high rise in Monterrey. The door to the once-apparently thriving business was open, but no one was inside. We walked through office after office. The lights were out. And, it appeared that no one had been there for some time. A sign, reading BioBancUSA, rested on the floor of what looked like a one-time lobby.
It looked like the employees had closed up shop and walked out. "That's essentially what we believed happened, "says Monterey County Deputy District Attorney Dije Ndreu.
The I-team learned the FDA had not inspected this facility for two years. And, after we started asking why regulators hadn't stepped in, the state of California revoked BioBanc's license citing many violations.
We've now learned the State of California obtained a default judgment against BioBancUSA. It is now seeking to recover $267,500 in civil penalties. The California Corporation is also permanently restrained from "operating a cord blood…facility without a valid license from the California Department of Public Health."
"For about a year, the cord blood operated without any medical staff, any laboratory staff. There was no quality control being done… They committed health and safety violations. Customers weren't told. Cord blood is a precious resource you can only get it once," says Ndreu.
The I-team eventually tracked down Prince's stored blood at another facility in Southern California where it had been transported. And we learned it wasn't the first time, that bank had taken over tanks for other private cord blood companies. The FDA had shut down two others. And another had gone bankrupt.
Today, Prince's little girl, Trinity, is four. She hasn't needed the blood yet. Prince says she believes Trinity is better; however, she'll never know if the blood was maintained properly and will be viable unless Trinity needs it. She says, "I would still do it over again tomorrow and save cord blood. It is a life insurance that you never know if you will need. Instead of it being just an insurance it also became a gamble."
But, she has little trust in the current private cord blood bank industry. "I have zero beliefs in the current system." She is glad the state of California took action, but it really did nothing to resolve her situation.
For the victims like her and the others the I-team talked to, there is no restitution and no reassurance. "My guess is that our situation with our cord blood went into a FDA report and then that report went into a file drawer like nothing ever happened."
Two years ago, when the I-team began this investigation, we raised a lot of questions about the lack of oversight in the private cord blood bank industry. So, we went back to the FDA and pressed it to tell us what improvements in oversight have been made. We asked if the agency has increased inspections or strengthened requirements.
An FDA spokesperson sent us the following statement:
"The number of inspections varies from year to year, however the regulations have remained essentially the same. Periodically, FDA issues guidance documents to assist regulated industry in complying with those regulations. The following links provide access to the guidance documents related to HCT/Ps:
The I-team spoke to the attorney representing Robert Hayner, who owned BioBancUSA. He tells us he has been unable to reach Hayner. In response to the judgment, he says they have "nothing to add at this time."

XDH gene
xanthine dehydrogenase
The XDH gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called xanthine dehydrogenase. This enzyme is involved in the normal breakdown of purines, which are building blocks of DNA and its chemical cousin, RNA. Specifically, it carries out the final two steps in the process: the conversion of a molecule called hypoxanthine to another molecule called xanthine, and the conversion of xanthine to uric acid, a waste product that is normally excreted in urine and feces.
Xanthine dehydrogenase has been studied extensively because it can be involved in the production of molecules called superoxide radicals. Specifically, xanthine dehydrogenase is sometimes converted to another form called xanthine oxidase, which produces superoxide radicals. These molecules are byproducts of normal cell processes, and they must be broken down regularly to avoid damaging cells. Superoxide radicals are thought to play a role in many diseases, including heart disease and high blood pressure (hypertension).
Researchers suspect that xanthine dehydrogenase plays a role in milk production (lactation) in women. However, the enzyme's role in lactation is unclear.
At least 12 mutations in the XDH gene have been found to cause hereditary xanthinuria type I, a condition that most often affects the kidneys. These mutations reduce or eliminate the activity of xanthine dehydrogenase. As a result, the enzyme is not available to carry out the last two steps of purine breakdown. Because xanthine is not converted to uric acid, affected individuals have high levels of xanthine and very low levels of uric acid in their blood and urine. The excess xanthine can accumulate in the kidneys and other tissues. In the kidneys, xanthine forms tiny crystals that occasionally build up to create kidney stones. These stones can impair kidney function and ultimately cause kidney failure. Less commonly, xanthine crystals build up in the muscles, causing pain and cramping. In some people with hereditary xanthinuria, the condition does not cause any health problems.

I just got the score back from that test I thought I bombed around Halloween.
Turns out I scored an 85.
I'm 6th on the eligibility list.
So if just 3 people ahead of me die, plus someone in the current job…
I get an interview.
I'm not sure about the proper response to this…
Kinda morbid….

Books say that heat transfer in an adiabatic process is equal to 0. How can this be if there is a change in temperature?Asked by: Miguel Angel
AnswerYou are probably making the common mistake among students by not realizing that heat and temperature are two completely different things.
Heat is a quantitative measurement of energy whereas temperature is a qualitative measurement which indicates the warmth or coldness of an object.
In an adiabatic process, there is no heat transfer to or from the system, and therefore change in entropy = 0. Temperature, however, can increase or decrease despite the lack of heat flow. For example, take an insulated piston cylinder device containing some arbitrary gas (common example in thermodynamics problems). If you were to push the piston down (thus compressing the contents of the cylinder), the temperature of the gas in the cylinder would increase. If the piston was pulled out (thus expanding the gas) the temperature would decrease. In either case, no heat would flow to or from the system, but the temperature would change approximately according to the relationship PV=nRT (for the most general cases)

Published in the Edmonton Journal (April 5, 2018).
This week, the Ecofiscal Commission released results from a new survey by Abacus Data that interviewed 2,250 Canadians on their perceptions of carbon pricing and climate change.
Unsurprisingly, the majority of Canadians agree that climate change is real and caused by human behaviour. The results also showed that Albertans recognize the need to reduce greenhouse gases and associated emissions and in fact, only 27 per cent want the government to place less emphasis in their policies on emission reductions. So what to make of the vocal opposition to carbon pricing and how to move forward?
The opposition to the policy is interesting, considering a price on pollution is nothing new for Albertans. Alberta actually was the first jurisdiction in North America to put a price on carbon with the Specified Gas Emitters Regulation as early as 2007.
However, the survey points out that to the average Canadian, government hasn't done a good enough job in explaining why carbon pricing is at the core of meaningful climate action. This gap makes the policy a convenient target for opposition.
No policy is a silver bullet and successful policy packages will include a mix of pricing carbon, along with regulations and support for low-emission technology, but carbon pricing remains a core component of any credible plan to reduce emissions.
A price will result in lower emissions than would have happened without a price, while being compatible with economic growth. This is backed up by both theory and practice. The reasoning for this is simple: you put a price on something that you don't want (pollution) and use the money for something that you do want (such as investments in productive and efficient infrastructure or lowering other distortionary taxes).
Businesses recognize this, and are speaking out in support of a price on carbon. Last month, Canadian businesses that are members of the Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition released a report sharing their recommendations on carbon pricing and complementary regulations to transition to a low-carbon future. The report reflects input from usual suspects like Cenovus, Enbridge and Suncor, but also Air Canada, Bank of Montreal, Lafarge, Holcim, Unilever and 20 more Canadian businesses.
These leading businesses are in step with the global movement towards pricing carbon; as of 2017, over 40 national and 25 subnational jurisdictions are putting a price on carbon. According to countries' Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), submitted to the United Nations, carbon pricing is currently used to cover 58 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions.
As the recently released Auditors General report shows, historically provincial governments have made big climate promises but failed to deliver the real polices that are required to deliver on these promises. In the spirit of moving away from this trend, Alberta's party platforms all need to show how they would address pollution, so Albertans can sufficiently compare what emissions reductions they are promising to achieve, and how.
Albertans can then judge the proposed policies and how they measure up on some key dimensions including: how can this contribute effectively to Canada's international commitments; is it business friendly for the province — does it give investors a signal of regulatory certainty and; are the revenues used in a way that contributes to a diversified economy transitioning to a lower-carbon future?
As a province, we should stop wasting time with the discussion of simply getting rid of a price on carbon. That path is doomed to failure given the inevitability of the federal backstop (already proven airtight, as tested by the Manitoban government), and is against the global trend.
Instead, we need to have a real conversation on the different options for a mix of approaches to reduce emissions that includes a price on carbon. This kind of climate action is what Albertans want, and will provide businesses the kind of the regulatory certainty for economic growth.

Periodically, I like to add sweetener to my tea – typically only to black tea or even better southern style sweet tea. There was a time when I only used old faithful white sugar. Some would say that I graduated to honey. While honey is tasty I found the taste distorted the flavor of my tea. In an effort to discover the perfect sweetener that enhanced the flavor of the tea instead of detracting from it, I began using Sugar-In-The-Raw. I cannot say there was a compelling reason for trying Sugar-In-The-Raw other than ,"Starbucks uses it". Then recently, I discovered Sugar Crystals by Adagio Teas.
What are Sugar Crystals? According to Adagio Teas website, these crystals are sugar in its purest form. "Adding a few sugar crystals will sweeten tea without distorting its flavor profile, pleasing both your sweet tooth and taste buds." After reading, I knew I had to place an order. When I opened the container, I laughed. Adagio's Sugar Crystals look like the rock candy I used to eat as a child. Large chunks of amber colored sugar crystals in varying sizes. Eaten alone the crystals are hard and crunchy with a natural sweetness.
I decided to brew a cup of tea and give these Sugar Crystals a try. With a steaming cup of tea in hand, I added several crystals. One note, the crystals do not dissolve immediately, but require a few moments of continuous stirring to fully melt down. I found my tea wonderfully sweetened. There was no aftertaste as with artificial sweeteners like Equal or Sweet and Low. In addition, no distortion, like honey – I was pleasantly pleased.
In consideration of the fact that Sugar Crystals are sugar in its purest form, I was surprised by the amount needed to sweeten my tea. My assumption was that the crystals would be very potent, however they were not. In contrast, Sugar Crystals by Adagio teas are quite mild. Perhaps this is how sugar was always meant to be.
Just a few details…
Adagio Tea's Sugar Crystals can be purchased in two different sizes – a sample size for $3.00 and 16 ounces for $9.00.(I purchased the sample size, which has lasted longer than I ever anticipated.) In addition, the Sugar Crystals come in both amber and white. Visit Adagio Teas for more information about this spectacular accessory to your tea collection.
If you currently use Sugar Crystals, stop by and share your experience. Until then… Happy Tea Drinking!

I love that there are only four ingredients to this recipe - especially seeing as we always have apples in, and veg stock in the cupboard, and the ammount of onion marmalade required is half a jar meaning it nicely makes two lots of this recipe without having any left over to waste. On top of all that - it's delicious!

What style! What flair!
This three letter monogram aisle runner has it all. The swirling romantic middle initial sidles up next to classic understated first initials. The result is thoroughly modern yet filled with romance. The combination of navy on a white 100 foot long real fabric runner is crisp yet charming and sets the tone at this Spring wedding ceremony.

Coca‑Cola HBC Polska, the leader of the non-alcoholic beverages industry, joined the partnership for the implementation of the Strategic Development Goals (SDG's), submitted two environmental commitments. The Company signed the declaration during a conference "The 2030 Agenda for sustainable development - goals for the world, challenge for the country, responsibility for all", organised under the auspices of the Ministry of Development.
The initiative of partnership implements the resolution adopted by the General Assembly of the UN entitled "Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development", which aims at accomplishing 17 goals related to action for the people, planet and prosperity. The goals are to be fulfilled through the cooperation of business, politics and the society.
We are proud to join this initiative. As Coca‑Cola HBC Polska we truly believe that the achievement of ambitious goals and tasks is possible only through mutual cooperation carried out in an efficient way. We know that this requires to mobilize our strengths, create synergies, engage in a vivacious and robust partnership, which is a natural effect of a dialogue, open to all interested sides – added. Nikos Kalaitzidakis, General Manager of Coca‑Cola HBC Polska
Coca‑Cola HBC Polska joins the partnership initiative with the declaration, that until 2020 it will seek to:
- Reduce the consumption of water in industrial processes versus 1 liter of beverage produced by a minimum of 10% compared to 2010, which is aligned with goal number 6 "Clean water and sanitation" of the SDG's.
- Reduce the consumption of PET resources versus 1 liter of beverage produced by at least 40% in comparison to 2010, which is in line with goal number 12 "Responsible production and consumption" of the SDG's.
Coca‑Cola HBC Polska emphasizes that the goals constitute a constant strive to improve the Company's results and to reduce the impact of its operations on the natural environment. The goals are implemented individually and with independent funding.
Coca‑Cola HBC Poland has been working for sustainable development for years, which is part of the company's business strategy. One of the most important areas of activity in this area is environmental protection. In 2016 the company invested more than 4 million PLN in 26 projects aimed at saving energy and water use in production processes. Some of these projects were a result of implementation of ideas submitted by employees. The effects of last year's investment have already positively transmitted into the environment, like CO2 reduction by 1,600 tons per year and total savings in water consumption by 158,000 m3. Investment plans will be continued in 2017 and, thanks to them, CO2 emissions can be reduced by next 2,000 tons per year. In case of water it will be a total savings of 31,000 m3.
Coca‑Cola HBC Polska's socially responsible approach is confirmed by the fact, that in 2017 the Company was ranked first (ex aequo with Schenker) in the 11th Ranking of Responsible Companies.

Who would have thought- a butterfly garden located smack-dab in the middle of San José? Well actually many know of this little slice of butterfly paradise, as it IS in all the travel books and seemingly quite popular. In the PAST I normally wouldn't loiter around San José for any longer than necessary, so I never even considered the possibility of a butterfly garden in the city, or probably CARED for that matter. I have since changed my opinion of San José: San José, Costa Rica- I'm SORRY! Anyway, on this past trip to the city, we made it a point to stop in Spirogyra Butterfly Farm and check it out for ourselves... and are we GLAD we did.
The Spirogyra Butterfly Garden is a little breath of fresh air nestled within walking distance of the hustle and bustle of the city. After about 30 minutes roaming around the Spirogyra Butterfly Garden (snapping the perfect butterfly pics) and the adjoining forest pathway next to the garden, it's EASY to forget you're actually IN a BIG city. Remember to leave plenty of room on your memory card as photo-ops are EVERYWHERE.
Here's how Spirogyra describes themselves:
'Spirogyra is a butterfly farm and garden located within walking distance of San José, Costa Rica's capital. One of our goals is to keep this area, located in the last forested part of the city as a "green oasis' where people can learn about butterflies and their role in the environment and hopefully become sensitive and more aware of the importance of preserving one's habitat.'
Spirogyra isn't the 'biggest' butterfly garden out there, but the feeling of REALLY walking through a lush garden with beautiful butterflies flitting about seems so NATURAL. Besides, I'm NOT a big fan of the BIG 'net like' enclosures that don't even go to the trouble of of 'faking it' by landscaping appropriately, yet billing themselves as a serious butterfly garden... UGH!
Luckily, this is not the case at Spirogyra.
If you got an hour or two to spare, we highly recommend a visit to the Spirogyra Butterfly Farm and Garden. During the busier seasons, they even have a small cafe where you can watch an educational film and have coffee and a snack.
Spirogyra Butterfly Farm and Garden is located 50m east and150m south from the main entrance to "El Pueblo" shopping center.
Here's our VIDEO REVIEW of Spirogyra Butterfly Garden and whether you're a butterfly enthusiast or not, it's worth checking out. ENjOY! This Video should be watched in HD.

Whether you are doing research for a speech or a paper, the Kirtland Library has many resources designed to make the process easier. The library's web page will help you find the resource you are looking for.
Research is easier if you take it a step at a time. Review the following tutorial for an overview of the research process.
The Assignment Calculator helps you pace your work. Enter the date the assignment is due and it will break the assignment into parts. Each part has links to further information to assist you with that step of the process. Enter a date, and give it a try.
"Consider the source" is a common saying which means that you should think about who is providing the information. The person says, "consider the source" to indicate that he thinks the information provider is not reliable and may be offering biased or inaccurate information.
The Kirtland Catalog holds the records of the books, audio books, DVDs, magazines, and other items owned by the Kirtland Library. We have added records for the e-books and downloadable audio books available through OverDrive to the Kirtland Catalog too.
This guide page shows you where you will find the Kirtland Catalog and the basics of searching it.
There may be times you want a book or article that the Kirtland Library does not have or more. You can check to see if other libraries have the book by searching for it in WorldCat. When you find the item you want, you can ask the Kirtland Library to request the item from the other library through interlibrary loan. The guide below explains the interlibrary loan process.
Kirtland Library has two main collections of ebooks. The e-brary ebook collection has many nonfiction titles available to you with your single sign-on. The OverDrive collection has both ebooks and audio books and has a mix of nonfiction and popular fiction. To check out OverDrive titles you need to have an active account with the library and have your library issued PIN. The following guides have more information about these collections.
College research becomes easier when you become familiar with library databases. Library databases give you access to journal, magazine, and newspaper articles, as well as videos, and audio recordings. Much of what is available through library databases is not available on the open web. At first some databases may look boring because you won't see ads or links to unrelated sites. However once you become familiar with them, you will appreciate their usefulness.
Searching library databases is a little different than doing an internet search. The guide below provides tips for making your searches more productive.
CQ Researcher and Opposing Viewpoints in Context databases are good places to begin your research. Both are user-friendly and can be helpful when you are looking for a topic.
After researching your topic, you will want to make sure you use the information you've gathered in an ethical manner. Doing so will help you avoid plagiarism. Learn more about ethical writing by reviewing the information on the Ethical Writing Choices page. Be sure to view at least one of the videos. They may be corny, but they are informative.
NoodleTools is an online tool used to create citations for your paper and your References/Works Cited page.

Why Dura-Ply?
Dura-Ply Roofing provides the most durable and sustainable commercial flat roof system available in today's marketplace. Dura-Ply offers a long-term roofing solution for all buildings that have a flat or metal standing seam commercial roof system.
Dura-Ply's, DRI-ROOF™ – a commercial flat roof recover system – is engineered with a patented self-drying component. Our exclusive drying formula is intended to eliminate the risks that are associated with placing a new roof over the top of an expired flat roof system. By coalescing essential roofing components with Dura-Ply's proven air-flow technology, our roof system offers a preemptive approach to common roof failures that occur when a new roof is installed over existing multiple roofs.
The moisture eliminating behavior of Dura-Pl's roof system offer our clients an unparalleled value when compared to conventional roof replacement. Because moisture is like a cancer within the roof system, with our roofing formula we are able to eliminate the exorbitant cost of a complete tear-off, avoid lengthy business interruption, and offer our client incomparable sustainability at an affordable price.
Product Value – Unparalleled
A Proven History
During the 1970's, drastically hiked price of crude oil drove up the cost of roofing. Roofing professionals responded by seeking out alternatives to asphalt based systems like coal-tar pitch, B.U.R and modified bitumen.
By 1984 a single-ply, synthetic rubber roofing membrane called, EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer), was broadly acknowledged as a viable alternative to the asphalt based system. This membrane would later serve as the crux for the superior roof system designed and engineered by Thomas J. Preston Jr. and his son, Thomas J. Preston III.
Today, EPDM continues to outperform all other roofing membranes. The most recent data provided by the SKZ study supports an average life expectancy of more than 50 years.
In additional to providing a superior quality membrane, and unlike most roofing contractors that will offer to install any product on the market, our crewmen have been trained in one application, Dura-Ply's, DRI Roof™. This philosophy provides great uniformity in workmanship and ensures the best possible job for you. Dura-Ply provided craftsmanship that is hard to compare.
A Proven Performer
Dura-Ply's vented commercial roof system is a capital investment that puts money back in your pocket. The U.S. Department of energy supports that a black roof in Chicago provides more cost savings over any white roof, or "Cool Roof." In fact, they are proponents of energy savings in climate zones 4 and up with a black roof. Our product eliminates the unnecessary expense of tearing off a roof, reduces your energy requirements year round, is environmentally aware, and will keep you dry for decades.
With over five decades of empirical data, EPDM is proven to be the longest lasting roofing membrane available. Unlike other plastics and asphalt based roofing membrane, EPDM does not rely on plasticizes for flexibility. For this reason, EPDM can be easily repaired, even after decades of weathering.
If you are you looking for a Long-Term solution for your commercial roof replacement you have found the right company, Dura-Ply Roofing.

Centralized Application Services
There are two ways to apply to health professions schools: through a centralized application service or through direct application to individual schools. The vast majority of schools participate in centralized application services.
The centralized application services provide standardized information to participating health professions schools from a single form that you complete. The advantage of applying through a centralized service is that initially only one set of application materials and official transcripts need to be submitted, regardless of the number of schools to which you apply. The application services provide detailed admission information to health professions schools, in addition to processing the primary application. All application services require a basic processing fee, plus a sliding scale fee depending on the number of schools to which you request the application be sent. Certain fee reductions or waivers are available to students with financial need.
The lists below identify the services that oversee the centralized application processes of each professional school association. Check with the respective application service regarding which one to utilize for your intended course of study:
- AMCAS (Allopathic Medicine)
- AACOMAS (Osteopathic Medicine)
- AADSAS (Dental)
- AACPMAS (Podiatric Medicine)
- CASPA (Physician Assistant School)
- PharmCAS (Pharmacy School)
- OptomCAS (Optometry)
- PTCas (Physical Therapy)
- OTCas (Occupational Therapy)
Deciding Where You Would Like to Apply and How You Will Finance Your Education
As you consider which schools to apply to, consider these questions:
- What grades/scores/extracurriculars are schools looking for? Do I meet those requirements?
- What sort of city do I want to be in for the next four years big or small?
- Is it important for me to be near people who are my support system like family and friends?
- If I have a strong ethnic identity, is there a community for me at the school and/or in the city where it's located?
- What is the culture of the medical school? Are faculty members and my peers committed to my success? Does the medical school recognize the importance of the human side of medicine? Of community service?
- What about financial considerations? Is there a state institution that provides financial benefits to its resident students?
Early management of educational loans and finance has significant long-term benefits. Your Pre-Health Advisement Dean is the best starting place for resources, help with applications, information on financial aid and other funding options, and financial aid awarding policies and procedures. The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) offers several resources including information on programs such as MEDLOANS, MD2 , and DEBTHELP: http://www.aamc.org/students/financing/start.htm

The V.I. Board of Elections on Monday voted 9-2 to disqualify the gubernatorial campaign of Sen. Positive Nelson and his running mate, Gary Udhwani. The vote denied granting the restoration of their petition of candidacy.
During the Board of Elections meeting at the JFL Cardiac Center, Supervisor of Elections Caroline Fawkes stood by her position that Nelson should be disqualified.
"I am happy that the Board supported me," she said after the vote.
Fawkes' decision June 5 disqualified Nelson and Udhwani from the gubernatorial race. According to Udhwami , he was a registered voter in 1995, but records show he has not voted in two consecutive elections since 2000 and had been removed from the voting rolls.
Elections Chair Arturo Watlington, Jr. said the whole process was inconsistent with the law.
"The candidates' actions might not be willful, but the affidavit of the circulator is totally inconsistent with the affidavit of candidacy," said Watlington.
Udhwani was circulating petitions for signatures minutes before he was legally registered as an elector on May 8, rendering the signatures invalid, the board concurred.
Nelson will meet with Superior Court Judge Harold Willocks at 10 a.m. Aug. 3 to determine whether to seek judicial relief.
Voting Monday to disqualify Nelson from the ballot, were Barbara Jackson McIntosh, Adelbert "Bert" M. Bryan, Raymond J. Williams, Ephiphane Joseph, Arturo Watlington, Jr., Esq., Lydia Hendriks, Carla Joseph, Alecia M. Wells, Maurice A. Donovan, Jr., Robert Max Schanfarber and Harriet Mercer. Voting in favor of allowing Nelson on the ballot, were Lisa Harris Moorhead and Glenn Webster.

I want to revive 15years old desktop.
CPU : Athlon XP 3000.
RAM: 2G Memory.
Graphic Card: 7600GT(512 Mb).
IDE HDD : New 160 G.
32bit M/B.
How can I install W7 Home Premium on IDE HDD ?
I tried as below.
1). Installed new IDE HDD in mainbox.
2). Put on W7 CD in DVD rom.
Screen shows me < Insult Booting Media in CD rom and press any key.> . . . repeat it.
How can I complete ?
The Athlon XP 3000 CPU could not recognize New CPU ?
There's nothing special about an IDE hard disk; Windows 7 should just install as usual. It sounds as if your DVD drive isn't recognizing the disk.
"Insult Booting Media in CD rom and press any key"
Insert?? Are you sure you have a DVD drive?
That's a very good point. DVD drives were fairly uncommon 15 years ago and the message asking for a bootable CD would seem to indicate that you are correct.
Try using an usb thumb drive.
1: Install Rufus & put W7 from your DVD on it.
2: Reboot, go into the bios & change the boot order to make the flash drive first.
3: F10 to Save.
A 15 yr old PC may not have the ability to boot from USB.
"A 15 yr old PC may not have the ability to boot from USB"
It's also worth mentioning that there's unlikely to be any Windows 7 drivers for a 10 year old system other than those which are on the installation media. It's highly unlikely that Windows 7 will have every driver that's required, and the PC or motherboard manufacturer may not have any for that model either.

"IDE HDD : New 160 G"
Here is info covering the aspect of HD size, extracted from this PDF.
"Important Notice for Drives Larger than 137 GB
Some systems do not properly support the full capacity of an internal drive
larger than 137 GB. To ensure proper installation, read "Using a Drive
Larger than 137 GB" on page 22 before setting up the drive."
You will probably need to use a ATA/66 controller card.
The other alternative is to try a smaller hard drive.
message edited by Johnw
Make sure Windows 7 drivers are available for your hardware (probably not).
With 2GB RAM you will need to stay with 32bit version of Windows
Windows 7 is on a DVD not a CD so make sure you have a DVD drive
Drive size and speed issues probable
Chance of working: Exceedingly low...
Recommendation: Go back to a clean install of XP or a 32bit version of Linux.
You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.

- About the brand
The curative properties of the Hungarian thermal waters were known to many of the aristocracy in Europe, and in the 1800s the Omorovicza family commissioned a famous architect to build the beautiful Raz spa in Budapest (Hungary), on the site of a medieval healing spring.
Two hundred years later, Stephen de Heinrich de Omorovicza, a descendant of the noble Hungarian family, and his future wife Margaret met in beautiful Budapest. Fascinated by the transformative effects of the thermal water on skin, they enlisted the help of a Nobel prize-winning team of scientists and so began the start of a new anti-ageing skincare line, Omorovicza.
The secret to the healing Hungarian waters lies in the fact that, here, the crust of the earth is thinner than elsewhere. This allows the waters to absorb beneficial minerals more effectively on their way to the surface, meaning that certain springs contain a combination of minerals that have been shown to have a profoundly revitalising effect on the skin.
All Omorovicza products are powered by a potent blend of Hungary's mineral-rich healing waters and our patented Hydro Mineral Transference™ delivery system. This is combined with the finest vitamins, essential oils and other natural ingredients sourced from across the globe, from the bed of Lake Heviz to the peak of the Andes Mountains.
Omorovicza products are free from synthetic fragrance, parabens, petrochemicals, silicones, Sodium Laureth Sulphates, synthetic colors

Ramya Naren
Ramya Naren
Ramya Naren, our Instructor is an MBA graduate. Having spent nearly 14 years as a luxury hospitality sales & marketing professional, it was the recurring introspection & fast paced work life that convinced her that there is more to living than inside a human – hamster wheel. Having been a sales professional for all of her career, Ramya was a natural at connecting with new people & knew that 'people engagement' had to be at the heart of her passion & purpose.
A chance meeting with Kavita Prakash, who was the Founder of Pilates for Wellbeing, Bangalore & doing a few hours of Pilates convinced Ramya that this is what passion looks & feels like. She was convinced that Pilates not only is a great way to empower herself but also is an ability to empower others around her.
Now, after being inducted into the Pilates for Wellbeing's TTP (Teachers Training Program), Ramya intends for Pilates Practice she is going to teach to become a mind, body & spirit healer for others as it was for her. In her words 'I hope everyone finds the courage to live with compassion & faith. Pilates teaches you about your body in a way no other practice does, but you do have to give it everything you have".
She feels that the teachers training program gives her the confidence to guide clients through the Pilates movements while still keeping the body safe as it is a practice that promotes injury-free methods.
Ramya is an extrovert, loves music & travelling to new countries. She loves Pilates because it makes her feel strong, look good & have the ability to eat more crepes, guiltfree! She likes watching crime detective television shows, dance the nights away on weekends, and loves talking at length about energy and metaphysical science. Her favourite place are where good friends are gathered to laugh, enjoy wine, share stories & find solutions to everyday problems.
'I do not have a special talent. I am not a gymnast or a soccer player. I do have certain parts of my body that are less strong than the others, similarly, we all have something we can work on and strengthen in each of our bodies. But importantly, I have a sharp mind & a bone or two of resilience. Faith, consistency and the practice of the Pilates movement everyday have empowered me to be in a constant state of 'becoming'!!

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla
Dashboard cameras aren't just great for recording drives, capturing evidence during accidents or collisions and adding security to vehicles, they are also bringing high-end safety features to older vehicles.
Dash-cams are an interesting segment since not only are prices going down for these devices, adoption seems to be going up as well as image quality and feature sets.
Since apps like Google Maps and Waze on smartphones have all but replaced standalone GPS devices. The efficiency of navigation apps as well as the ubiquity of data-enabled smartphones that can get real-time traffic data that can outperform most GPS devices.
Dash-cams, on the other hand, can easily slip into the area that GPS devices have vacated and offer functionality that no smartphone can match.
As standalone video recorders, dash-cams have wide-angle lenses, advanced optics plus the ability to work as security cameras even when the vehicles are parked.
Newer dash-cam models even integrate many of driver assistive technologies.
The most impressive of these is stop sign recognition which gives an audible beep when a sign is 'seen' by the dash cam.
This is a helpful feature in school zones or areas where stopping is essential for safety, it also does a great job of spotting the Stop signs ahead of time giving you ample time to reach and slow down.
Another feature is Stop and Go, which aids drivers in moving once the car in front has started to move, helps with distracted driving or fatigue when drivers are not paying attention of what's happening ahead.
Newer dash cams also have a G sensor that will save an emergency recording when it thinks you've been in an accident. These are great added features, specially for older cars. That may not have a way to be upgraded to have these features.
This is a huge opportunity for dash-cam manufacturers and also for consumers who may want to upgrade security and have recording capability on their older vehicles without spending too much for the privilege.
Papago, which manufactures a wide range of dash-cams, has models that range from basic cameras under US $80.00 to more complex models that integrate GPS functionality as well as improved Sony Exmor sensors, intuitive features, and even high-quality 2K resolution videos.
GPS innovator Garmin has also gotten into the dash-cam market and touts features like GPS-enabled recording; footage records location, direction, speed, date and time to show exactly where and when accidents and incidents occur.
The forward collision warning alerts if you drive too close to the car ahead. The red light and speed cameras warning alerts you to nearby red light cameras or speed cameras.
What makes dash-cams unique is that they are standalone devices that aren't yet included in brand new vehicles and still have a lot of room for growth.
As evidenced by the wide range of model sizes and feature sets, dash-cams can take many shapes, offer a wide range of peripheral functionality while still managing the main task of recording and storing live video from driving or parked cars. Dash cams can evolve into the black box equivalent for land vehicles, at least a point of reference in determining the cause of crashes or accidents.
This means that manufacturers have the opportunity to bring even more driver assistance and safety features into the aftermarket using dash cams as the hub.
What's Your Tech? Is a dash cam an accessory you are considering for your vehicle, do you feel there's a need to constantly record video from moving cars in the event of an accident? Let us know below.

hi all,
im trying to figure out how i can add the uncompressed DriverPacks left by the DriverPacks BASE "Keep The Drivers" method from an existing XP installation into a 2003 installation.
first i tried copying the DriverPacks from the XP to the 2003 into the exact same place (C:/WINDOWS/DriverPacks) and copying the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DevicePath string from the XP into the 2003 but this was not successful.
what am i missing? i thought that would work. other registry settings needed?
Im going back through Wimb's IMG_XP tool looking for more clues but if anyone knows how i can do this, please let me know.
this 2003 is 32bit, I used USBoot tool and installed EWF to make it bootable on USB flash, it boots on foreign hardware fine but must manually add drivers each time.
I'd like it to install drivers automatically like XP does but when I try to integrate the DriverPacks the same way as XP, it doesnt work do now Im trying to do it after installation.
surely its possible, but how?
making 2003 usboot more universal by adding uncompressed DriverPacks

Git on with Dreamweaver CC!
Are you a Dreamweaver user who has experienced frustration with issues like file overwrites, lost files, or updates being made to the wrong version of a file? No matter how efficient you are or how hard you try, it is virtually impossible to work without a good version control system.
If you are a coder, Git needs no introduction. For the uninitiated, Git is a free, open-source, distributed version control system that helps you manage your files and code. As a web designer or as a developer who uses Dreamweaver CC, you can now use Git to maintain many versions of your files, manage source code in a secure repository, and collaborate real-time with other users.
To use Git from within Dreamweaver, you need to first download a Git client and create a Git account. If you're already working with an existing Git repository hosted on Github, Bitbucket, or other popular hosting services, you simply need to sign into your Git account. Now, when you open the latest version of Dreamweaver, the app automatically picks up the location of your Git executable file. You can go on to initialize a new Git repository or clone an existing repository.
After initializing or cloning a Git repo, you can view all the files and folders that are related to your project in the Files panel. Notice that there is a new Git View icon in the Files panel. Click this icon to view all the files that are associated with a Git repository.
Git automatically categorizes your files as untracked (displayed in green), modified (displayed in yellow), and committed (displayed in white).
When you initialize a repo, the files are untracked. When you edit a file and save the change, the files are modified. Unless you commit your changes to a repo, the edits are saved only to your local system.
Dreamweaver includes a new Git panel (Window > Git) to let you perform actions such as Commit, Push, and Pull.
There's more! You can create and manage remote Git repositories, too, from within Dreamweaver. Remote repositories allow you to access a repository that is hosted in another network. This means that you can use remote connections to easily share your files and updates, and collaborate with other users. To create a remote connection, click Create Remote in the Git panel.
Download the latest update to Dreamweaver CC today from your Creative Cloud desktop application, and start using Git to manage your files. Leave a comment to let us know if this feature helped you.
Detailed instructions on setting up Git and integrating it with Dreamweaver are available in this Help article: Using Git in Dreamweaver.

Paving Paradise
"Coffeyville bricks were shipped by the train-loads to Florida, to be used in paving the streets that are enjoying a rapid growth. The bricks, 3,250 tons, or 811,500, were manufactured in the plant of the Coffeyville Vitrified Brick and Tile Company here, [and] left Coffeyville by two trains, bound for Texas City, Texas, where the material was transferred to a boat leased by the Company, and was transported by water to Tampa, Florida. The first train contained twenty-nine cars; and were routed over the Missouri Pacific."(1)
Vitrified bricks were touted by their manufacturers as being impervious to freeze-thaw cycles, heat and humidity, excessive weight and tire chains. Beginning in 1927, the National Paving Brick Manufacturers' Association in Chicago advertised heavily in regional newspapers (below) and published The A.B.C.s of Good Paving in order to promote the product's assets. Frugal municipalities envisioned the cost savings.
Hattiesburg and Wiggins, Mississippi implemented vitrified brick pavers on their streets. Brownwood, Texas paved some 42 miles with it in 1928.(2)
The Florida Land Boom brought large quantities of the product into the state. In 1924, Kansas State Agricultural College landscape gardening professor William S. Wiedorn relocated to St. Petersburg, Florida. The street where he lived is still paved in vitrified brick.

Wiedorn in Kansas
Wiedorn worked with horticulture professor Albert Dickens to supervise the improvement of the state capitol grounds in Topeka. They installed an underground irrigation system and recommended turning under an expanse of Sudan grass followed by a blue grass sowing. (2)
Dodge City hired the young landscape designer to superintend the planting of nearly 800 trees and shrubs in its Wright Park.(3) Other projects included the Augusta High School, Kansas State Penitentiary (Lansing), the Osawatomie Hospital and the Kansas State Tubercular Sanitarium (Norton). The latter is shown below.

Food Moderne
The new reinforced concrete structure was built on 645 tapered steel piles, each extending thirty feet below grade. Most building materials were acquired in California. The color scheme reflected the corporate identity: the elevator penthouse's mammoth (17 x 57') "Carnation Milk" sign appeared in solid red letters during the day, and as flashing red and white neon at night. The red granite facing stone on the lower facade could not be acquired locally and was shipped from Sweden on the maiden voyage of the Grace Line Motorship named Los Angeles.(1)
"The most modern and up-to-date equipment was installed. The sacking rooms are a network of conveyors carrying the finished merchandise to the automatic weighing machines --unlike the old days when every bag had to be weighed and stapled by hand. Our continuous Frito press, enormous potato chip machine, the overhead conveyors carrying the boxes of finished merchandise from sacking rooms to the Shipping Department, electric taping and tying machines--all these things have been added to the San Antonio operation since my arrival in 1932. Another really fine addition is the modern lunch room, where employees 'take a break' and enjoy coffee and tea furnished by the company."(2)
The building is still standing.
In fact, all three buildings are at least partially standing.

MoCat tagged me a few days ago. I, however, am lazy. So I didn't get around to it until now.
1. I have never, ever had a dream without a family member appearing in it. Even the traditional "Oh, crap, a monster is chasing me dream!" will have me run by, say, Second Cousin Mike, who'll wave and say, "Whatcha doin'?" Thanks be to God, I don't have sexy-type dreams.
2. I am painfully, cripplingly shy. Anyone who has ever met me is surprised by this. Mostly because I handle the crippling pain by talking a lot.
3. My love for Neil Diamond is greater than the stars in the sky. I've only been to three concerts in my adult life, and one of them was Neil. His was the bestest (sorry, Beastie Boys).
4. I don't understand women. Which, you know, kinda weird, since I *am* one. Seriously, makeup? What the hell? Cover up the fact you have clogged pores by covering your face with stuff that clogs your pores. Don't even get me started on pointy-toed high heels and skirts, and crying to get your way.
5. I hate squishy foods. This includes avocados, bananas, and mangoes. They make me want to yurk.
6. I have a huge fascination with Japan. Yes, I know a lot of geeks of my generation are in the same boat. My fascination, however, can be traced to a throwaway anecdote in an obscure Robert A. Heinlein book I read when I was 12 years old. The story tells of the tiny deer of Nara, which you can FEED OUT OF YOUR HAND! I studied the Japanese language and culture, first on my own and then formally in college. When I got my B.A., I took two weeks and actually traveled to Japan, on my own, with nothing but a passport and 200,000 yen. Finally, FINALLY I made it to Nara. A woman sold me a package of deer cookies, and I got to fulfill a lifetime ambition and feed the insanely cute little deer…
…and one bit me on the ass.
I think there's only five people in the whole of the blogosphere who haven't done this yet, therefore, if you haven't done this, TAG!
