Arthur Greenhall (1911-1998) was a zoologist known for his work with reptiles and bats, as well as his recordings of animal sounds. He also recorded events and activities in his own life. He partnered with Daniel Crowley to record calypso songs and life in Trinidad. Some of the tapes included in this collection are the master tapes for the later released Sounds of Animals (FX 6124), produced by Folkways Records.
The Arthur M. Greenhall Collection dates from circa 1930-2014. The Collection contains letters, photographs, news articles, magazines, booklets and open reel audio tapes consisting of animal sounds, candid recordings, and calypso music.
The RRFAC acquired the Arthur M. Greenhall Collection in September 2014 when Paul Greenhall donated his father's materials to the Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage. Previously, Paul Greenhall had donated material to the National Anthropological Archives. In August 2014, the National Anthropological Archives transferred the materials from Paul Greenhall to the Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.

Canadian University Report 2016
How to pay for school when the bank of mom and dad closes
Ash Kelly
Published October 22, 2015 Updated May 15, 2018
Lisa Howey-Louter owed $40,000 when she graduated from Ryerson University with a degree in early childhood education in 2007. Eight years later, at 33 years old, she still owes $32,000 in combined provincial and federal student loans.
After working for two years, and making the $400 monthly payments on her loan, she went back to school. Two years into her studies she became pregnant with her first child. Left with no maternity benefits and no income, Ms. Howey-Louter applied for an extension on the interest-free payment period. "It took a little bit of stress off," she says. Still, that $32,000 is a huge weight on her shoulders.
While Ms. Howey-Louter's debt is much higher than the Canadian average of $26,000, her situation is not rare. In fact, students are increasingly looking to loans to finance their education. A survey by the Bank of Montreal showed an 8-per-cent drop in the number of students borrowing from their family between 2012 and 2013, and a 6-per-cent increase in reliance on loans.
Not every student is graduating with crippling, life-altering debt; half of graduates are completely debt-free. These students are paying for school with a combination of scholarships, summer job income and support from their parents, including registered education savings plans.
So why has it become so hard for the other half to pay for university?
"Tuition rates have gone up a lot faster than salaries have gone up," says Rob Carrick, author of How Not to Move Back in With Your Parents: The Young Person's Guide to Financial Empowerment. (Mr. Carrick is also a financial columnist for The Globe and Mail.) "I went to university in the early to mid-'80s when you could earn your tuition in one summer of work."
In 2005, average yearly tuition in Canada was $4,200. Today, average yearly tuition has increased by more than 40 per cent to $6,000.
The average minimum wage in Canada is $10.85, meaning to earn just enough for average tuition in the two months between high school and university a student would have to work 70 hours a week, and that's before taxes and payroll deductions.
When tuition, student fees, housing, food and textbooks are added up, a student starting university this year will need $75,000 for a four-year degree, according to Statistics Canada.
But it's hard to save for school if you can't even find a job. This May, 13.2 per cent of Canadians between 15 and 24 years old who were actively looking for work went unemployed. In 2005, that number was only 10.8 per cent.
"I think a lot of parents are probably working on the idea that you can earn your own way through university because they did it. But the economics aren't the same as back then," Mr. Carrick says.
Which university is right for you?

University finance tips
The best borrowing option is provincial and federal loans. You won't be required to pay a cent and your loans won't incur any interest until six months after you graduate. If you find yourself in financial difficulty like Ms. Howey-Louter, you will have access to assistance programs.
But here's the catch. Not everyone qualifies for the maximum government loan. The average student loan granted by Canada Student Loans in 2013 was $5,400 and that same year in British Columbia, for example, the average disbursement was $3,400. This means the average student in B.C. was approved for less than half of the estimated cost of one year of university.
The amount you qualify for varies depending on the province, your parents' income, your income and even whether you own a car.
BRIDGE THE FINANCIAL GAP
That's where the banks come in. These days most banks offer a student line of credit, which can give you something to fall back on in case of an emergency or if you need to supplement your government loans.
Unlike a loan, which comes in a lump sum upfront, you pay interest only on the portion of the line of credit that you actually use, and you can pay off the principal at any time.
Another advantage of this type of loan is that you get to shop around. It is advisable to sit down with more than one lender to discuss the specific needs and circumstances of the borrower. In general, these products have competitive interest rates lower than a government loan; however, borrowers must pay the interest each month while they are still studying.
Missing payments can have a serious impact on your credit score and ability to borrow money to finance purchases in the future.
BORROWING SHOULD BE THE LAST RESORT
Despite these borrowing options, your best bet is to manage your spending. Melissa Jarman, director of student banking at the Royal Bank of Canada, suggests you make a detailed budget the summer before starting classes in the fall.
Too often students wait until they are already studying before they realize they don't have enough to cover their bills, she says. "You don't need that added stress on top of studying."
Ms. Howey-Louter wishes she had help managing her loan, which came in a lump sum of $10,000.
"I have nothing to show for it," she says, regretting that she blew the cash on material goods. "Now I'm paying for it and that's my life."

I RECEIVED THE MENTIONED PRODUCT IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW. ALL OPINIONS ARE MINE. PIC & SYNOPSIS BELONG SOLELY TO THE COMPANY & THEIR ASSOCIATES.
Lumene's Arctic Berry Cocktail Brightening Hydra Oil was included in the official GRAMMY® Gift Bag which was given to the show's presenters and performers. Lumene's Nordic-C Arctic Berry Cocktail Brightening Hydra Oil replenishes the driest skin with unique bi-phase hydra-oil. A replenishing blend of Wild Arctic Cloudberry and Cranberry Seed Oils with a vitamin cocktail of C, B3 and B5, omega fatty acids and Pure Arctic Spring Water, for perfectly hydrated, radiant and velvety smooth looking skin.
Lumene's Arctic Berry Cocktail Brightening Hydra Oil is 100% vegan, gluten-free and cruelty free.
MY THOUGHTS: The first thing you'll notice is that the oil looks incredibly cool. No pun intended! Initially, it appears to be two-toned until shaken. The scent is an amazing blend that smells edible! It will not mix with other facial care product scents. I have a variety of make-up products, each with a unique scent, and this oil delicately complimented those.
For 2 weeks, I followed the directions perfectly. It's used after cleansing, but before face cream. Being that it is the first Lumene product I have in my skincare regime, I followed it with a brand name cream. After cleansing with micellar water as usual, I applied the oil. My first impression, after the fantastic scent, was that it felt light-weight and a lot like the micellar water.
There wasn't a greasy feeling. It was barely visible. It absorbed quite quickly. After applying a face cream, I definitely noticed that the cream went on smoother. There was a visible difference in the brightness of my skin. As for make-up application, I needed less highlighter than usual. Even under my full coverage foundation, there was still a noticeable brightness.
Now, several weeks after beginning use of the product, I still continue to see improvement. Sans make-up, my skin retains a brightness, even first thing in the morning. For me, Lumene's Arctic Berry Cocktail Brightening Hydra Oil is a win!
Lumene's Arctic Berry Cocktail Brightening Hydra Oil is available at Target, Target.com, CVS, and CVS.com.
I purchased these products myself. Not a sponsored post.
Yesterday, I went for it. For several weeks, I've had in my possession, the contour & highlighters. They were so intimidating to me. I don't know why. I just didn't want to look like a self-tanning, inept make-up novice, I guess. I've seen so many Youtubers do it. My 'Liked Videos' are full of how-tos.
So, I took the step when Rite-Aid had a BOGO 75% off sale. Then, I looked at Amazon for brushes. I chose the Niki Garret ones. Then, I figured, after the way things have been going these last few weeks, I needed to do something fun, for me. Once I realized that most contouring Youtubers are in their twenties, with perfect skin, filters, and no flaws, I searched for a fuller face. I found a video featuring a self-professed plus-sized girl! Hooray! I am one, too! Even my face seems to be plus-sized.
So, I watched the video twice. I sat at the kitchen table, make-up mirror lit up like a runway, and prepared. I had all my other make-up on, except blush, per instruction. My husband was home and found this whole thing quite entertaining! I started the video from the beginning, taking great pains to do every blessed step. I watched as the guru took each brush and dipped it into her contour. I will say she had a WAY bigger palette than I did. However, I chose my contour color based on my skin tone. She was very tan, almost orange-y.
As I followed along, my intimidation with the products dissipated. I rationalized that if I totally botched it, I could grab the micellar water and off it'd go. I carefully used the contour brushes. My husband came up behind me and said it looked good. Oh my heart! Ok, we're doing it! I blended as she did and then applied my blush.
Now, I was actually trying NOT to smile. I continued the video as I went on to the highlighter. I looked in the mirror, having completed the routine, and was pleased. My husband reaffirmed that he thought it looked good. I had tried something new and succeed! It was such a feeling of accomplishment. I texted my mom, aunt, and sister. I even put product pics on Instagram. I don't feel confident enough to show my face in pics, but, knowing I had really done it was amazing.
I will continue to branch out as I'm able. But, there's one more fear conquered!
#Sponsored Get Ready For 'Back-to-School' With Dr. Plotka!
It seems like yesterday that we were all planning Summer activities and breaking out the tank tops. Now, everywhere you go there are reminders that school starts- soon! My sister, a teacher in Alabama, goes back early in August and we're set to begin here at home within 4 weeks! I've even seen a display of *gasp* Halloween candy! Anyone raising children knows how quickly 3 short, summer months go by.
But, don't just buy any toothbrush. Make a conscious choice, this school year, to earn those better dental check-ups. My family has been using Dr. Plotka's brushes for quite some time now. I can say, for fact, that they have made a difference. I won't ever endorse a product that I haven't used AND believe in. This product, this company, makes a difference. Need some convincing?
NATURALLY ANTIMICROBIAL* BRISTLES For Better Health – Infused with silver to naturally eliminate 99.9% of bacteria that grows on the bristles within 6 hours!
That's impressive, right? It's not just 'lip' service either. My 15-year-old son's last SIX dental visits have been cavity-free. Zero. Some of the most beautiful words ever spoken are: 'You have no cavities!' It makes me proud that I am doing something good as a caregiver. In today's world, we need all the positive reinforcement that we can get!
Before switching brushes, he had cavities. There were at least one a year to a year and a half. He goes every 6 months as suggested, so that means 6 visits- 3 years- of no cavities. It's better for his mouth, health, and our finances! Dr. Plotka's brushes simply clean better than ordinary brushes. They're worth every penny.
My husband & I have both been using them too. He's had no more tooth pain and gum issues. My gum issues are a thing of the past. Try them. What have you got to lose? You have a lot to gain. Get ready to have the best school year ever featuring a winning smile!
I received the aforementioned product in exchange for a review. All opinions are mine.
I RECEIVED THE PRODUCTS MENTIONED IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW. ALL OPINIONS ARE MINE. Pic & synopsis belong solely to Arm & Hammer.
My thoughts: It works! After a day of helping his dad landscape, my teen son was foot odor-free. I was impressed. No sweaty, gym room smelly feet! What I love best about this particular product is the fact that it DOESN"T smell like cologne. When you spray it initially, all you'll notice is a fresh burst of smell, a bit like fabric spray smells, and then, it dissipates. No lingering odor. After removing socks, we noticed that this spray didn't have an after effect. You know the smell, it let's the world know that you've hidden the foot odor underneath some other scent, but it's really still there? Yes, that smell. It didn't happen this time. There were no skin irritations, no sock stains, and his feet/shoes really did smell good.
Another annoying truth about sprays/powders is that, for men's products, there is always a cologne-scent. Well, what are you supposed to do with a pre-teen who needs a little help, but definitely do NOT want to spray him with an adult spray? Arm & Hammer has that covered, too and we love it!
My Thoughts: Yes! It really can be unisex. Again, you have the initially fresh smell when spraying and then, there's simply clean. Those of us who sweat know the stress sweat/man-it's-hot sweat smell. This product is sweat-activated. Awesome! Again, talc free so you can feel safe about using it. Plus, if you do have an older teen, they may want to add their aftershave and such. This product won't mix with it and they'll still get that fresh, dry feeling for the day.
I trust Arm & Hammer. Most of us grew up with a box of their baking soda in the refrigerator and continued the tradition. We know they do what they say their products will do. They wouldn't have been a household name for so long if they hadn't. But, along with trust, they bring consumers value. Each of these products retails for an MSRP of $6.99. Now, we've had them about a week and the cans aren't empty yet (with repeated uses). There aren't too many products you can get for that price that are worth it. Value and trust- that means a lot to me. Try it for yourself and I think you'll agree.
NEW Hard Candy Glitteratzi For Spring '18!
We're halfway through February & (despite what the groundhog says) spring is in sight! Time for a new season and great new make up from Hard Candy. For Spring 2018, they've brought us Glitteratzi! It's a fun new make up with a fun-to-say name!
Glitter has officially become an adjective with this Liquid Sparkler. Its uses are endless.
Want to perk up your eyes? Done. Need dazzling lips? Done. Extra glow for the cheeks? You got it. Sparkle, dazzle, shine- all with one tube.
One coat gives you a sheer layer. Think of it as a back-up dancer to the rest of your make up. Two coats and you've got center-stage, all-eyes-on-me glitter. There are 7 shades to choose from: Aurora- a clear/white, Star-a pink, Blaze- a golden/yellow, Confetti- darker pink, Twinkle- lighter pink, Spark- a purple, and Galactic- a blue. For this review, we have Aurora, Twinkle, & Star.
I applied each on my lips, cheeks, & eyes.
Twinkle appealed to me as the best for my cheek area. I went with a one coat. I tried one & two coat applications for my eyes using all three. Star was the closest to a natural look, so I was most comfortable with it. Aurora seemed to get lost on me. Although I though it would show up on my lips, it appeared as a clear lip balm with glitter. I'd probably go with Twinkle for lips too.
A word of caution: when wet, these smear. A lot. Be careful while applying. Maybe keep a make-up wipe nearby. Once they dry, they set. Quickly. Be sure you adjust any mishaps immediately. They have serious staying power, which is good, right? Absolutely!
I'm also a fan of the slim tube and sponge applicator tip. It's easy to grip for those of us with shaky hands. The size & shape of the tip allows for big swipes of color without sacrificing the control of the wand. The tube is no bigger than a mascara so it fits easily in purses, backpacks, etc. These would be perfect for a girls' night out or a sleepover for teens, too.
Bottom line: Hard Candy makes it fun to be a girl! Glitter is fun and glitter in make-up makes you feel young & energetic. With a little price tag and big, big results, it's hard to pass up Hard Candy!
Available exclusively at Wal-Mart, they have an MSRP of $6.
**I received the aforementioned product in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are mine.
If you're looking out you window at six or more inches of snow, Spring is probably the last thing on your mind. But, take heart! Beauty trends aren't dependent on the weather. While you're stuck inside, Hard Candy has been hard at work on their Spring 2018 looks.
I'm thrilled to introduce the 'Look Pro! Galactic Eyes Palette'!
Ten out-of-this-world colors in one pro palette. Each shade, aptly named in an astronomical theme, has glitter galore and is easily applied with the (included) two-sided brush.
For starters, I need to sing the praises of this little brush. First, it's perfectly sized. Not too big ot too small. It wipes off easily when or if you want to play around with different shades. I did not miss the typical sponge applicator one bit. Don't you hate when those sponge tips fall of mid-application and you're left with this mini-spear that pierces your eyelid? Yeah, no fun. So, I am a huge fan of the brush applicators.
Let's talk colors! When I get new make-up, I always get that rush of happiness like when we were all in elementary school & you open that new set of crayolas. It makes you enjoy being a girl for a while.
In this palette we have: 'Supernova'- a purple shade, 'Retrograde'- a glittery black, 'Spaceship'- a charcoal gray, 'Nebula'- an earthy brown, 'Eclipse'- sort of a black/gray combo, 'Meteor'- a deep pink, 'Blue Moon'- obviosuly blue, 'Alien'- a green, 'Shooting Star'- a yellow, and 'Constellation'- a flesh tone.
I played around with every shade. Personally, I opt for earth tones for daily use. In the eyelid crease, I vary depending on my mood but, usually, it's a brown or green. So, I switch it up a bit here.
First, I tried them as stand-alones. Excluding 'Blue Moon', you are going to have to do some layering for maximum impact. Blue goes on pretty deep from the get-go. 'Alien' is pretty close with maybe a two or three swipe application. Otherwise, you're going to need to apply a bit more than you would with a regular matte shadow.
Second, watch the glitter. If you have unsteady hands or don't tap the brush a few times before applying, you will have yourself a glitter bonanza. Just keep a make-up remover wipe handy and you'll be fine. My choice, due to the shimmer, would be to use these on top of a regular matte. I usually use an eye crayon which definitely intensified the look of the shimmer. I liked the look.
Utilizing a dark, regular shadow base, these colors really pop. As a highlighter or in the crease, they were phenomenal. They had exceptional lasting power, too. If you use a colored eye liner (other than basic black), you're going to have a lot of fun pairing different colors together. Both 'Shooting Star' and 'Constellation' were awesome highlighters.
My year-round allergies often cause me to have to resort to wearing my glasses. After applying the palette, I noticed that the shimmer shows through even with eyewear.
Sometimes, eyes get 'lost' if you have specific types of frames. I was pleased to see a real difference when wearing my specs. If you do wear contacts, watch the glitter, nothing is more uncomfortable than when you get make-up on your contacts.
Looks and fun aside, make-up has to be affordable. Thankfully, Hard Cady gets it! Available exclusively at Wal-Mart, this palette is only $8 MSRP. That's amazing. It's difficult to find quality, single shadows for less than that nowadays. To get ten, fabulous shades, matched together for endless pairings for $8 is truly remarkable. In fact, I'd say it's an out-of-this world deal (pun intended!). Have some fun getting ready for spring with Hard Candy!

I barely left the West Coast (LAX), spent 40-ish hours in Colorado and then jumped on another plane for the East Coast. WHEW.
I had an EARLY flight (5:30 a.m.). To make matters worse, I was traveling on a standby ticket and get this - LEFT MY TICKET AT HOME. How's that for a Thursday morning? I had to wait to get it which meant I missed my flight. Thankfully, Southwest Airlines rocks and I was able to get a direct flight. However, I did have five hours to kill at the airport so I slept on the floor. Oh the fun we have!
After flying to Jacksonville, Fla., I had to make the 140-mile drive up to Savannah, Ga. I got to Savannah just as the sun was setting. Whirlwind.
I met up with friends for dinner and a walk around the town squares. We walked past Paula Dean's restaurant and the smell of fried food turned my stomach. It was a challenge to find a healthy meal in this town! I ended up eating a burger sans bun with extra lettuce. And longed for a bowl of veggies!
Savannah had a lot of ghost tours, but we just walked around. Saw the bench where Forest Gump said "Life is like a box of chocolates." Savannah was a very clean town and enforced a no heckler policy.
Friday was spent wandering, expo-ing, relaxing and having FUN. It was the first Friday and that meant fireworks! We watched them from a hammock by the water front. It was awesome.
Race morning came early. And it was chilly. It was 35 degrees at the start. Perfect. I was pacing David (who likes to run fast at the start). It was a challenge to hold him back.
I was really excited to run another marathon. My last long race was Sept. 25 (VT50 miler). Today was a benchmark for me - if I felt good I would sign up for BIG race. Stay tuned for the verdict!
Last evening, Land Shark was handing out Land Shark hats. I got one and David and I both wore them during the race. Little did we know they would be such a HUGE hit! And I mean HUGE.
Like I said, I was pacing David. I kept trying to rein him back. The first half of the race doesn't really matter how fast you run it in if you can't run the back half. But I was going to try my best.
The course was not all that scenic. We did get to run through a few neighborhoods and outskirted the downtown area which was nice. The best part though? THE SPECTATORS. They were fantastic! I've run all the "big marathons" (NYC, Chicago, Boston, Marine Corps Marathon) and the spectators at Savannah were awesome. They packed almost the entire 7-8 mile stretch. And they SCREAMED when they saw my Land Shark hat. It was awesome. I made a mental note to wear it at every race!
Soon we reached the point where the half and full course parted ways. Always an interesting feeling :). This stretch of the course was out on a highway. The sun was out, but it was still cool. Thank God, because if it was humid, this part would have sucked. Highways aren't fun to run on as it is!
We reached the halfway point and David began to tell me to go on ahead. I wanted to stick with him a bit longer, but by the next mile I knew I should go on ahead. I was feeling really strong. So the Land Sharks parted ways.
There was a group of guys who were cheering someone running my pace, because I was able to partake of their cheering four times. It was great. They ADORED my hat. By the third time I saw them, they were yelling "Land Shark! Land Shark! Go girl, go!" Thank you!
Mile 17 (?) was also awesome. It was Savannah State College (I think? Some college) and they were out in full force. From manning the water station to do high fives to a cheering squad, the energy was amazing. It was a GREAT boost!
One thing I try to do when I am running a marathon is call out of words of encouragement along the later miles. Or when passing a mile marker. "Look guys, 18 miles down!" Today was no exception. I shouted "Mile 18 folks! Great job!" Two guys responded by saying it was their first marathon. I encouraged them and told them they were doing awesome.
Mile 20 and only 6.2 miles left. I yelled out "10K left! Single digit miles baby!" Not only does this encourage me, but those around me too. Love it.
Soon, the course was back on the highway and we were running on a slant. And not just a slant, but the wind was ferocious. You need to keep your head up when you run, but the wind was not making it easy. As we runners leap-frogged each other we made remarks about the wind.
Soon, Mile 24 was finished. I yelled out "2.2 miles to go!" The course had a gradual uphill the last mile. And don't forget the wind giving us extra work! Thankfully, my Land Shark was holding on for dear life and it provided great encouragement the last miles.
Soon, the finish line was within hearing distance. And then sight distance. I ran strong to the very end. 4:16. I felt great and knew my "reward" was on.
I was in the finish area and a older lady tapped me on the back. I turned around and she told me thank you for the encouragement and inspiration I provided on the course. She didn't even know me! How's that for a positive impact? I think it rocks!
After shivering under a space blanket, drinking some water and getting some food, it was time to head back to the hotel. For a shower.
I have to say, I felt absolutely great. It is awesome to be able to finish a marathon and not feel like you ran one.
Another race down. Three more in the series to go. To God be the glory!
So what was my reward? By signing up for another 100 mile ultra marathon. This will be my second one. I'm not naive about. Just because I've done it once, doesn't make it any easier. But I am excited to run another one. Yep. Another 100 freaking miles. God help me!

Q: How to jump to previous instruction Is it possible to do something like this?
.globl main
main:
    movl     $4,     %eax
    dec     %eax
    jnz    ... # jump back to the previous instruction if not zero
    ret

If not, what would be the proper way to do something like the above? I suppose the corresponding C would be something like:
int main() {
    char a = 4;
    while (a-- != 0);
}

Here is what I've come up with so far, but not sure if this is the proper way to do it or how it could be improved (for example, why do sections usually start with a dot, such as .L1 ?):
.globl main
main:
    movl     $4,     %eax
DECREMENT:
    dec     %eax
    jnz     DECREMENT
    ret

A: That's exactly what labels are for. You can just introduce a new label and use that as a target for the jnz instruction:
.globl main
main:
    movl    $4, %eax
prev:
    dec     %eax
    jnz     prev
    ret

Keep in mind that this creates prev as a file-wide label, meaning it must be unique in the entire source file. Some assemblers also cater for numeric labels which can be duplicated. When you use them, it finds the closest one in the direction specified:
.globl main
main:
    movl    $4, %eax
1:
    dec     %eax
    jnz     1b        ; closest '1', going backwards (b).
    ret

This is a very handy feature that allows you to do "localised" labels without polluting the label namespace, and avoids having to use long labels like main_loop_1. The suffix for the numeric label indicates the direction to go looking for the label, b is backwards, f is forwards.

A: Use a label:
.globl main
main:
    movl     $4,     %eax
loop:
    dec     %eax
    jnz     loop
    ret

the nytpicker: Fake Scoop: NYT Borrows Today's Above-The-Fold, Front-Page "Secret" Iraq Vets Story From Stars And Stripes, Agence France-Presse.
Fake Scoop: NYT Borrows Today's Above-The-Fold, Front-Page "Secret" Iraq Vets Story From Stars And Stripes, Agence France-Presse.
In the third paragraph of today's above-the-fold, page-one story about wounded war veterans returning to Iraq, NYT foreign correspondent Rod Nordland pumps up his reporting by representing it as a scoop.
"The seven-day program, called Operation Proper Exit, has been kept quiet previously," Nordland writes, "partly because returning to a combat zone is considered a delicate experiment."
Well, it wasn't too delicate for the military newspaper Stars and Stripes to report on it a month ago, on September 13, 2009 in an article called "For The Wounded, One Last Mission." That story, by Seth Robson, recounted the experiences of the soldiers on the initial June trip back to Iraq -- brought there by the Troops First Foundation in an effort to help them achieve psychological closure.
Robson made no mention of any secrecy concerning the mission, and even quoted an email from a vice chief of staff of the Army, identified by name, confirming details.
Yet Nordland, in his story today, said the June trip "was kept secret because no one knew for sure how the soldiers would handle their return."
Other stories about the operation are also easily accessible online -- such as a June 20, 2009 account of the June trip by Staff Sergeant Jon Cupp in the online newspaper Newsblaze.
Nordland's story isn't even the only report on the October trip by American soldiers back to the front lines. The Khaleej Tmes, a daily newspaper in Dubai, published a lengthy account on October 13, that makes no mention of secrecy and doesn't imply exclusive access. That story appears to have come from the Agence France-Presse (AFP) news service, to which the NYT subscribes.
There's nothing wrong with the substance of Nordland's story; it's a well-written, emotional account of the pilot program and its effects on the soldiers who went along on the second trip to Iraq. Nordland is a former Baghdad bureau chief and chief foreign correspondent for Newsweek; he now holds the title of foreign correspondent in the NYT's Baghdad bureau.
But it's sad to see the NYT -- whose executive editor, Bill Keller, likes to cite its Baghdad bureau as evidence of the paper's superior coverage -- represent its foreign reporting as unique and page one-worthy when it's not. In this case, Nordland went beyond simply suggesting that his story was the first, or omitting a reference to Stars and Stripes. His story stated definitively that the operation "has been kept quiet previously" as though to suggest his reporting had pierced some sort of military confidentiality.
Do Nordland and the NYT not consider stories in Stars and Stripes, Newsblaze and the Khaleej Times a form of public disclosure? According to Wikipedia, Stars and Stripes, the military newspaper, has 350,000 worldwide readers in Europe, the Middle East and Asia -- presumably a few NYT reporters and editors among them. The Khaleej Times reports a circulation of 75,000.
Did Nordland and his editors see the other pieces and choose to ignore them? What led Nordland to state so clearly that the program was a secret, when clearly it wasn't? We've contacted the NYT with those questions, and will update when we get an answer.
The statement "has been kept quiet previously" does not necessarily or even reasonably imply the reporter believes he has a scoop. It was to explain his understanding of the nature of the program; doesn't mean he believed he was the first journalistic soul to report anything on it. It sounds like the program HAS in fact downplayed. All that said, it seems you are reading far too deeply into a fairly common turn of phrase with a broader meaning than you're willing to allow.
So why is the NYT making this a big deal. Lots of guys -- me included -- returned to war after being wounded. Heck, one of the guys in mu company had 4 purple hearts -- for real wounds, not "Kerry wounds."
If Nordland's story had run on page A13, we wouldn't have posted. But higher standards apply to an above-the-fold, page-one story, where the NYT broke the Pentagon Papers, etc. The positioning itself implies a scoop. Nordland's assertions (that the story "has been kept quiet previously" and that the June trip "was kept secret") simply aren't true.
Short answer: anyone familiar with Nordland's MO since his Newsweek days would not be surprised by this. He hoodwinked a generation of desk-jockeys at 444 into thinking only he could deliver the goods no one else could. He used to regularly come up with scoops in Central America, despite the fact that his SPanish was limited to "una cerveza, por favor."
The guy's a hype artist. And in some cases, another kind of artist that rhymes with "hype."

Record low temperature set in the Netherlands, July noticeably colder across Europe
Posted by Teo Blašković on July 4, 2019 at 22:00 UTC (12 days ago)
Categories: Earth changes, Newsflash
The temperature at the former Twente airbase in the eastern Netherlands dropped to -1.6 °C (29.1 °F) overnight July 4, 2019, setting a new low-temperature record for the month of July and greeting residents with fresh summer frost.
The previous record for the lowest temperature at 10 cm (3.9 inches) was -1.5 °C (29.3 °F) set in Gilze and Rijen on July 1, 1984.
This is only the 7th time since Dutch meteorologists started taking temperature measurements at a height of 10 cm (3.9 inches) in 1971 that there has been frost in the Netherlands in July. The last two times were on July 9 and 10, 2015, and before that on July 1, 1984, according to Weerplaza.
Colder than usual temperatures in northern Europe are signaling a welcome change after severe heatwave affected much of the continent in the second half of June. While things still might change a bit, July is going to be noticeably colder than the last couple of weeks.

Brazilian youngster to sign for Watford in 'next few days', verbal agreement reached
By Lucas Sposito -
Watford have reportedly reached a deal with Brazilian side Fluminense for the transfer of the 16-year-old striker João Pedro.
As reported by Globo Esporte this Wednesday, the clubs have a verbal agreement for the move since last Sunday. Now they wait for the player to sign the contract in the next few days.
João Pedro has been excelling at Fluminense's U-17 squad lately. He's turning 18 in September 2019, which means he will only be able to move to England in January 2020. It's said that in case the clubs reach an agreement, then the transfer would be completed only in the summer of 2020.
Globo Esporte claims that the deal was agreed in London. President Pedro Abad had a meeting with Watford to discuss the €3.75m which the Hornets owe Fluminense due to Richarlison's sale to Everton this summer, and João Pedro ended up being included in the talks.
The website reports that João Pedro has been training with Flu's first team squad since the last week. In case he keeps impressing, it's possible that he will become a professional soon, skipping his time at the U-20 squad.

title: "Maps n' Mobile: Wildlife-Vehicle Collision Reporting"
categories:
  - Featured
---

 Scott Davis, UGRC Developer recently presented at the 2012 ESRI Developer's Summit an a newly released application to help UDOT and the State Division of Wildlife Resources track wildlife-vehicle events (politically palatable term for "roadkill"). Last year a graduate student approached UDOT with an idea to better track wildlife-vehicle collisions across the state.  After further investigation, it was decided that UGRC was best positioned to develop this application by leveraging GIS and mobile.

Mobile and maps. No big deal, right?  But, two factors made this project unique.  Build an app that:

Is not dependent on a native operating system (eg. iOS, Droid)

Can collect data when there isn't a data connection

It could have been easy to develop separate native apps for, say, iOS or Droid to collect data without a data connection. But to create an app that does both was new ground for UGRC as well as our customers.  Thanks to Scott Davis and the rest of the UGRC dev team, we now have a light weight mobile application that has streamlined an otherwise manual process.

The ability to capture data in the field without a data connection on a device that simply has browser capabilities - iPhone, iPad, Droid, Blackberry, laptop, etc. - its applications are varied.  Since this application has been introduced, two other similar projects are already on the horizon for UGRC.

To learn more - take a look at Scott's presentation last month:


Do you know for a fact that your pay is fair?
did you know how much your employer was willing to pay before you said what you were willing to work for?
Did you show them your payslip?
In South Africa, information on wages and compensation is becoming increasingly asymmetric, or difficult to find. Employees often don't know how their pay compares to comparable workers, either within or outside their firm, and a view that employees and applicants questioning pay are greedy, appears to be perpetuated. While employees and job seekers may be reluctant or not compelled to seek pay information for various reasons, many employers use compensation surveys to know precisely where their workers fall in the distribution of wages.

Le Nœud de vipères est un roman de François Mauriac paru en 1932.

Résumé
Le Nœud de vipères est la confession épistolaire de Louis, ancien avocat de soixante-huit ans, présenté comme un vieillard. Il voit sa famille, sa femme, ses enfants et petits-enfants, rôder autour de lui en attendant d'hériter du patrimoine qu'il a accumulé toute sa vie. Il a le sentiment que cette meute n'a d'autre but que de s'approprier ce qu'il a réussi à réunir, sans lui avoir jamais fait l'aumône de cet amour qu'il se croit incapable d'inspirer.

Il veut donc se venger des siens en les déshéritant. Mais sa femme meurt avant lui et sa vision des choses va dès lors profondément changer...

Dans cette confession, Louis parlera de son histoire avec sa femme Isa, de sa mère qu'il détestait parce qu'elle l'aimait trop, et des différentes vexations dont il a été l'objet à différentes étapes de sa vie. Il veut se venger du manque d'amour de sa femme de ses enfants, Geneviève et Hubert. Il a un fils illégitime à Paris, Robert, dont il veut secrètement faire son unique héritier, mais son plan secret est divulgué par Robert. Louis est un homme torturé qui progressivement évolue pour se rendre compte qu'il est capable d'aimer. Louis n'a pas pu terminer sa lettre, longue d'une centaine de pages, parce qu'il meurt en écrivant le dernier mot : « ador… ».

Dans l'avis au lecteur, Mauriac écrit : « Non, ce n'était pas l'argent que cet avare chérissait, ce n'était pas de vengeance que ce furieux avait faim. L'objet véritable de son amour, vous le connaîtrez si vous avez la force et le courage d'entendre cet homme jusqu'au dernier aveu que la mort interrompt... »

Plan
La première partie est constituée par la lettre que Louis écrit à sa femme, lettre que celle-ci devrait retrouver après sa mort avec ses papiers (ses « titres »). Toutefois, de manière inattendue, sa femme meurt avant lui, et Louis continue d'écrire ce qui devient plutôt un journal. Au-delà de ses souvenirs, il relate les différentes démarches qu'il a faites, toujours pour accomplir son plan, à savoir frustrer sa famille immédiate de son héritage pour en faire profiter plutôt son fils Robert, né d'une relation extra-maritale. L'œuvre se conclut, après la mort de Louis, par un court échange épistolaire entre Hubert, Geneviève et Janine. Cette dernière est la seule à croire à la conversion de son grand-père, que ses deux enfants considèrent plutôt comme au seuil de la maladie mentale.

Signification du titre
L'auteur, par la plume du narrateur, fait référence au « nœud de vipères » trois fois dans l'œuvre.

 La première fois (ch. XI), le nœud de vipères représente son cœur et toutes les haines et bassesses qu'il contient : « Je connais mon cœur, ce cœur, ce nœud de vipères : étouffé sous elles, saturé de venin, il continue de battre au-dessous du grouillement. Ce nœud de vipères qu'il est impossible de dénouer, qu'il faudrait trancher d'un coup de couteau [...]. »
 La deuxième fois (ch. XIII), l'image sert à décrire plutôt sa famille; cette réflexion lui vient lorsqu'il voit les sièges de jardin, vides, où sa famille (enfants, beaux-enfants et petits-enfants) a comploté contre lui : « Dans un soir d'humilité, j'ai comparé mon cœur à un nœud de vipères. Non, non : le nœud de vipères est en dehors de  moi; elles sont sorties de moi et elles s'enroulaient, cette nuit, elles formaient ce cercle hideux au bas du perron, et la terre porte encore leurs traces. »
 La troisième allusion (ch. XVIII) appartient à la conversion de Louis : il comprend qu'il peut être plus que ce nid de vipères, qu'il y a un homme capable d'amour et de pardon sous celui-ci : « Je sentais, je voyais, je touchais mon crime. Il ne tenait pas tout entier dans ce hideux nid de vipères : haine de mes enfants, désir de vengeance, amour de l'argent; mais dans mon refus de chercher au-delà de ces vipères emmêlées. Je m'en étais tenu à ce nœud immonde comme s'il eût été mon cœur même [...]. » Il comprend par le fait même qu'il serait judicieux de ne pas non plus s'arrêter aux apparences dans le regard qu'il porte sur les autres. C'est lorsqu'il saisit que l'amour lui est accessible (amour de soi et amour des autres), que « le nœud de vipères est enfin tranché » (ch. XVIII). Reste à savoir si les autres verront, sauront reconnaître sa transformation, après tant d'années de haine et de méfiance.

Thèmes évoqués
Voici quelques thèmes centraux de l'œuvre :
 L'argent : le personnage principal est riche et avare, et sa femme et ses enfants se liguent contre lui pour s'assurer leur héritage. Dès les premières pages, on constate un jeu du chat et de la souris autour de cet enjeu.
 Les relations conjugales et filiales. Ce mariage a été malheureux : le personnage principal s'est senti détesté et délaissé par sa femme peu de temps après leur mariage, et encore plus avec l'arrivée des enfants. Elle a mis les enfants de son côté, si bien qu'il s'est trouvé seul et accablé des jugements et du mépris de sa famille tout au long de sa vie, malgré de grands succès professionnels comme avocat.
 La bigoterie et le sens religieux. La femme de Louis, Isa, est profondément pieuse alors que lui est mécréant. Il ne se gêne pas, toutefois, pour remettre sous le nez de sa femme toutes les contradictions de son comportement (p. ex. : faire l'aumône à « ses » pauvres tout en sous-payant son personnel de maison).
 Le salut. Après avoir jeté un regard lucide et sans complaisance sur lui-même, Louis comprend le vrai sens de la religion (qui échappait à sa femme bigote) : l'apaisement que donne le fait de renoncer aux passions tristes et à l'avoir matériel en reconnaissant qu'on est soi-même digne d'amour.

 Robert : fils illégitime de Louis. Il habite à Paris et son père veut faire de lui son unique héritier.
 Marinette (Marie-Louise de son vrai nom) : sœur d'Isa. Elle meurt en 1900 en accouchant de son fils Luc.

I've written lately about some wonky things happening on the WordPress iOS app. Here, for example. And here, too.
As some of you know, I blog exclusively from my iPhone and I've noticed something a bit weird. On the WordPress app for the iPhone, when I'm looking through my Reader, I will see a post notification with a small, cropped image at the top, followed by the post's title, and then the first few lines of the post. As in the illustration below: There are two ways to view a post in my Reader. One is to tap the post's title, which displays the post in Reader mode. The other is to tap the "Visit" icon at the bottom left, which will bring up the mobile-enabled view of the post. This shows the Reader view when I tap the post's title: Note the full image at the top of the post. But if, instead, I tap the "Visit" icon, here's what I see: No image at all! Nowhere in the post! Where did the image go?
Maybe it's the fact that I'm using an iPhone instead of a laptop. But why, I wonder, does the image show up in the Reader version and not in the mobile version of the post?
I'm sorry if I'm coming across like a bit of a whiner, but I'm curious if the images you see in your Reader don't always show when you go visit the actual post. Or does this only happen to me?


Even before we start ahead with the rest of the content, note down that there is no legit ethical Roblox Hack Tool using which you can earn your means with the tricks which are not recommended. The question which arises now is whether you should read this article or whether it will be useful or not? Yes, it will definitely be useful since we will be sharing some really alternative methods which work as actual Roblox Hack Tools.
Note: There are many online robux generators and bot spammers which will bait you into using their tools. You must know that all of these tools are absolutely fake and if you take the risk, you will end up losing your personal information or getting a virus imported into your computer. DO NOT USE THOSE!
You can download roblox hacker here as well.
What could be the Roblox Hack Tool?
The best method would be playing Robux Hack which is just another free game on the main website. When you complete different challenges in the game, you are awarded the free robux and don't forget to add the game to your favorites because without that, it might not work.
The second method is the trading method using which you can sell some stuff on the online store of Roblox to get some robux for yourself. However, make sure that the item you are selling is worth the price.
Becoming a member of the Builder's club in the community can open up a great space to get some free robux and other bonuses which could be useful. If you are a content creator, this would be even more useful.
So instead of getting yourself be fooled by some fake roblox hack tool, you better use these alternatives to get free robux.
Even if you are not a game creator on Roblox, it would be better to get this paid membership for yourself. There are many benefits of getting it and instead of paying for the Robux directly which is really expensive, you get a cheaper solution alongside getting other free bonuses and offers which come alongside. Being a part of the community, it can be a really good learning experience as well.
I think that Roblox has become advanced enough that you cannot do a lot when you are not creating something on it and also not paying. Either you start spending some money to get the offers you need or start learning so that you can create content on Roblox. If you can do that, you can then create enough content to sell and get Robux.
This is just like RPG games where you find or earn stuff and then sell it to get the rewards. Now if you have got some stuff in your Roblox, you can trade it with other people who need it and in return, get the free Robux you are offered. This might take some research on the store but you will definitely get there.

Being a Roblox user, you must have been familiar with Robux by now. It is like gold or money which is necessary to build and buy certain things either during the game creation or playing them. Either you are required to buy Robux or go through different offers and task so you can get them for free. Now, if you want to do none of them, we now bring you some alternatives to get Robux with Roblox hacks.
Note: Unlike apps on the Android OS and others, you cannot get mods for Roblox and get all the unlimited Robux you want. Here, we are only discussing some legal alternatives to get Robux.
You never share your personal information.
Always try to avoid the games which ask you to create an account.
It might take some time before they reward you with the free Robux so be patient!
If you have started playing the game then you will start getting the free Robux after completing the challenges. However, if you aren't getting your rewards, it might be possible that you haven't added the game to your favorites yet. So make sure that you click the favorite but and add it since it is one of the perquisites.
If you liked the post, don't forget to leave us your feedback and if you need to learn more, keep visiting our website.


During the process, a payment schedule is set. You must abide by this so that your case can be discharged. Any balances on accounts that remain at the time of discharge are forgiven. This can have a negative impact on your credit report, but it might not be the drastic impact that you think it will be.
We know that most people who have debts they can't continue to pay probably feel bad about not meeting their obligations. This is one thing that they might appreciate about Chapter 13 - they get to repay a good portion of what they owe.
There are some benefits that can make your life easier when you file for bankruptcy. The automatic stay prevents creditors from trying to collect money from you on the covered debts. This helps give you peace while you work to try to rebuild your new financial life.
Some people might think that the education courses you have to take aren't a positive aspect of bankruptcy, but they can be if you open your mind. You can learn a lot about how to handle your finances if you pay attention. This can help you enjoy a positive experience with your money in the future. We are here to work with you to get the bankruptcy process started.

Clowns in Colour
Recently, a whole load of colourised silent films have been appearing on YouTube. I won't wade into the colourisation debate here (let's save that for tedious flame wars on Internet forums) but it did get me thinking about genuine colour footage of silent comedians. Unsurprisingly, there's not much about, as a) the use of colour was limited in the era and b) lots of early colour footage has decomposed. Still, there are some examples out there…
In the silent era, colour was mainly used in small doses to add some prestige to feature films. Harry Langdon filmed a fantasy sequence for LONG PANTS (now sadly lost) and Buster Keaton created a colour prologue for SEVEN CHANCES. Happily, this does exist and has been restored to current copies. It must be said that the faded 2-strip Technicolor isn't exactly vivid, having faded to more of a sepia effect, but it's still nice to have it, and if you squint hard enough you can imagine Buster in living colour.
Keaton's long career kept him working to the point where colour was much more widespread in the film and TV industry. As a result, there is lots of nice colour footage of him in his later years, but to see him looking more like the Buster we know from his classic silents, the best bet is HOLLYWOOD CAVALCADE. This 1939 feature was a vague retelling of the Mack Sennett story and Buster appears in an on-set pie throwing sequence (thus perpetrating the myth that he was another Keystone clown). It's beautiful vivid colour, and there are even some lovely outtakes from the film showing Buster throwing pies and laughing. Sadly, neither film nor outtakes appear to be on YouTube, but there's a brief snippet at 9:15 in this episode of the wonderful Keaton documentary A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW.
Charlie Chaplin didn't make a colour film until 1967's A COUNTESS FROM HONG KONG, but his brother Syd (always the less parsimonious Chaplin brother!) took some remarkable colour home movies on the set of THE GREAT DICTATOR that capture Charlie at work. There are scenes from the battlefields, ghettos and ballrooms of the film represented, as well as the iconic final speech. The vividly coloured uniforms of the soldiers make the viewer wish the film had been made in colour!
Though there is no colour footage of Chaplin from the silent era, there are a set of remarkable colour photographs taken by Charles C Zoller in 1918. These show Chaplin on the steps of his new studio and on the set of A DOG'S LIFE:
Similar in spirit are these shots of Laurel & Hardy horsing around on the Hal Roach lot in 1938:
The most famous Laurel & Hardy colour footage is the 1940s public information short THE TREE IN A TEST TUBE, which features some mute film of them clowning around with wood products. Their first colour film was actually made over a decade earlier; THE ROGUE SONG was an MGM musical starring Lawrence Tibbett, with the boys added for some comic relief. Alas, this is another early colour film that has decomposed, but a small fragment of the boys' footage does remain. Murphy's law of course dictates that the existing scene takes place almost in a dark cave so there's not much colour to be had! Here's the clip, which ends with that famous stage direction, "exit, pursued by bear!"
Another comedy team, another clip from 1930; here's a behind the scenes glimpse of the Marx Brothers on the set of ANIMAL CRACKERS:
It wasn't just the highest profile stars who made some colour appearances. Here's Lupino Lane singing a tune in 1930's GOLDEN DAWN. It's one of the few bright spots in this turgid and dated drama of Africa; not one that stands up to repeated viewings these days.
And to finish off with here's Charley Chase as 'Charley Chan Chase', host of the oriental themed MGM novelty, HOLLYWOOD PARTY (1937) . Maybe another one that doesn't stad much chance of being revived today… nice Technicolor, though!

ADAM AUSTIN, et al. Defendants.
This action is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation which recommends that Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment be granted in part and denied in part. (Doc. 65). Plaintiff has filed an objection to the Report and Recommendation in which he attempts to address the deficiencies in his Complaint which were addressed by the Magistrate Judge (Doc. 66). Defendants have filed an objection to the Report and Recommendation asserting that summary judgment is also due to be granted with regard to Plaintiffs claims for excessive force and deliberate indifference to which the Magistrate Judge did not recommend judgment as a matter of law. (Doc. 70).
On May 19, 2015, Plaintiff Steven D. King alleges in his complaint that `he was with his ex-girlfriend at a house on Main Street in Prichard, Alabama when police officers entered the home and ordered him to lay [sic] face down on the floor. King claims he immediately followed the officers' commands and his hands were secured in cuffs behind his back. While lying face down on the ground, handcuffed and compliant, King claims Officer Defendants Jennings Powell, Jeffrey Hillburn, and Joseph Goff proceeded to beat and kick him. He further alleges the officers pushed guns to his head and exclaimed they would kill him if he moved.
According to King, he was then led outside the house and "kicked off" a "very high cliff" (approximately two to three stories high) by Defendant Officers Jeffrey Hillburn, Joseph Goff, and Louis Screws, causing him to fall and hit his head on the paved street below. While lying in the street, King alleges the officers again pushed guns to his head warning him "not to move." King asserts he immediately requested but was denied medial [sic] attention and was placed in a police vehicle for transport to the Mobile County Police Department. While en route to the Mobile Police Department, King claims he "begged for medical attention and water" but it was again denied.
(Doc. 65 at 1-2)(internal citations omitted).
Defendants object to the Magistrate Judge's recommendation as to the excessive force claim against Jennings Powell, Jeffrey Hillburn, and Joseph Goff on the grounds that the affidavits of the police officers do not tend to support Plaintiff's claim, because the amount of force used was reasonable, and because it is Plaintiff's burden to submit the necessary medical records to establish that the force used was more than de minimus. (Doc. 70, section I., (A) and (B)). Defendants additionally object to the Magistrate Judge's recommendation as to Plaintiff's deliberate indifference claim on the grounds that Plaintiff failed to meet his burden to establish "a serious medical need". (Doc. 70, section II.). Defendants' objections will be addressed in turn.
According to Plaintiff, the officers violated the Fourth Amendment's ban on the use of excessive force to effect an arrest by the assault that occurred after he was placed in handcuffs (behind his back) and fully compliant and nonresistant. (Doc. 65 at 9-10). Specifically, Plaintiff's rights were violated when the officers kicked and beat him while he was handcuffed, lying face down on the ground. (Id. at 11).
As noted by the Magistrate Judge, "Fourth Amendment jurisprudence has long recognized that the right to make an arrest ... necessarily carries with it the right to use some degree of physical coercion or threat thereof to effect it." Jean-Baptiste v. Gutierrez, 627 F.3d 816, 821 (11th Cir. 2010) (internal quotes omitted). However, "[a]ny use of force must be reasonable, " id., and "[i]t is clearly established that the use of excessive force in carrying out an arrest constitutes a violation of the Fourth Amendment." Davis v. Williams, 451 F.3d 759, 767 (11th Cir. 2006). "Our cases hold that a gratuitous use of force when a criminal suspect is not resisting arrest constitutes excessive force." Hadley v. Gutierrez, 526 F.3d 1324, 1330 (11th Cir. 2008); Reese v. Herbert, 527 F.3d 1253, 1273-74 (11th Cir. 2008); Slicker v. Jackson, 215 F.3d 1225, 1232-33 (11th Cir. 2000).


Last Thursday saw our year 3 – 6 students push themselves in a physically and mentally challenging event – Faction Cross Country.
The weather was kind and the support was huge, with many parents, grandparents and siblings turning out to cheer on our runners. There were plenty of nerves before each race, but they were overcome and replaced with determination. It was such a rewarding experience for teachers, parents and classmates to see students dig deep and show resilience to complete the course. It is through events such as this that we can build resilience in our students – to give them the opportunity to face challenges, both mental and physical, and prove to themselves that nerves, discomfort and self doubt are temporary. Tough times pass, but tough people carry on.
Thank you to the many supporters for not only cheering for your children and your faction, but for supporting every last runner in each race too. You made each student feel worthy of admiration and kindness. Thank you to our wonderful staff for their efforts in helping in a variety of roles. Our new faction captains played an important part in the event, and I look forward to more of these opportunities this semester. Finally well done to our runners for accepting the challenge, facing their fears, pushing themselves past discomfort and showing such spirit.

Angels Claim Brooks Raley Off Waivers From Twins
By Jeff Todd | May 8, 2014 at 12:34pm CDT
12:58pm: Berardino updates things from the Twins' side (Twitter links), writing that Raley was actually designated earlier in the week and put on outright waivers on Tuesday. Thinking through the reasons that the move was kept under wraps, Berardino posits that the club may have hoped to maintain leverage with Guerrier's agent as the parties discussed the reliever's opt-out date. (The club ultimately purchased Guerrier's contract after he made clear he would not extend the opt-out date.)
12:34pm: The Angels have claimed southpaw Brooks Raley off waivers from the Twins, Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports on Twitter. Raley, 25, was apparently exposed to outright waivers to create 40-man space for Matt Guerrier.
This marks the second time in 2014 that Raley has been nabbed via waiver claim; Minnesota acquired him from the Cubs by that mechanism back in February. As Berardino notes in another tweet, it is not yet clear why the Twins placed Raley right on the waiver wire rather than first designating him for assignment.
Raley had been working at the Twins' top affiliate this year, throwing 14 2/3 innings of 3.68 ERA ball while generating a promising 11.7 K/9 against a less-stellar 6.8 BB/9. After spending most of his professional life as a starter, Raley worked primarily as a reliever this year, though he just received his first start of the season. Across two brief stints with the Cubs — first in a starting role (in 2012) and then from the pen (2013) — Raley has accumulated a 7.04 ERA in 38 1/3 MLB frames.

WASHINGTON — Congressional Republicans on Wednesday kicked off debate on House and Senate budget plans that promise slashing cuts to social programs — but whose real purpose is to grease the skids for a sweeping overhaul of the U.S. tax code that would add up to $1.5 trillion to the nation's spiraling debt.
It's also a key political imperative for Republicans — who control the levers of power in Washington but have no major legislative accomplishments to show for it after a protracted effort to repeal the Obama health law unraveled again last month. A face plant on tax reform would be an enormous political debacle.
Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., one of his party's budget hawks, warned that while he's supporting deficit-financed tax cuts for now as a way to deal with arcane Senate rules, he won't vote for the subsequent tax legislation if it blows a hole in the deficit.
"Unless it reduces deficits and does not add to deficits with reasonable and responsible growth models, and unless we can make it permanent, I don't have any interest in it," Corker said.

Study of objective assessment for pathways in areas of intercuspal position during masticatory movements
K. Tamaki, K. Kanematsu, Y. Hattori, Y. Endo, H. Watanabe, M. Yamamura, T. Fujita, H. Aoki
Masicatory function is the result of a highly complicated neuromuscular activity which coordinates in stomatognathie system. Functional directions of masticatory cycles in areas of intercuspal position (IP) were objectively evaluated on each stroke obtained through the Sirognathography Analyzing System (S. G. G./A. S.; Siemens, W. Germany). Twenty seven dantate subjects were selected at random from students and staff members of Kanagawa Dental College. A piece of chewing gum was given to each subject to masticate it for a minute on one side and on the other side respectively. A total of masticatory cycles were successively recorded into S. G. G./A. S.. A statistical analysis, the equal probability for ellipstical variations, was made on the angular measurements from opening and closing phases of each cycle within 3 mm from onset and terminus in areas of IP during masticatory movements. Four characteristic features of angular measurements are presented, namely, subjects who showed different types in position and forms by plotted angles within 80% of total amounts. The following results were obtained from this study. 1. Functional directions of masticatory cycles are clearly recognized in areas of IP from opening and closing phases during masticatory movements. 2. An application of the equal probability for ellipstical variations seems to be efficient for the functional analysis of masticatory cycles. 3. A classification of different types of plotted angles contributes to become a basis for diagnosis of masticatory function and occlusion.

Sound Church property where homes are planned. Photo courtesy nextMLT.
Fifteen single-family homes are being proposed for a portion of the new Sound Church property on 214th Street Southwest in northeast Mountlake Terrace, according to nextMLT.com.
The 4.7- acre property was listed for sale in July for $2.39 million. The church owns an additional 4.5-acre property just to the east that contains several buildings. The property is bounded by 214th Street Southwest to the north and Mountlake Terrace High School to the west.
The applicant, Arcadia Homes LLC, is proposing a rezone from RS8400 to RS7200.
Access to the site would be via a cul-de-sac off of 214th Street Southwest. Due to a 100-foot power line easement, houses would be set back from 214th Street Southwest at least 150 feet. A wetland exists on the western portion of the site and proposed lots would stay outside the wetland buffer.
Since this is only a pre-application, it should be assumed that plans may change, nextMLT said.


Stretch drive for the division title. Playing a team I should beat. Two outs in ninth. A two-run lead. And then... the Fates begin to snicker.
I lost the division, but won the wildcard. An epic bullpen fail if there ever was one.
Wow, that really was an epic fail. Yes, the error for sure, but then 13 unearned runs! Two pitchers who faced 5 batters each and couldnt get anyone out. It's very rare to see a 13 run inning where the cause wasnt the last RP getting shelled past pitch count.
not to be debbie downer, as it's been mentioned before, but those are not unearned runs for those relievers.
they are "team" unearned, but earned for the RP.
not sure if this can be corrected in PC or not. either way, quite the meltdown.
Correction, yes, thirteen runs. I think I was still in shock.
I don't see why they would have kept pitching if the runs were considered "earned" for each reliever. Strategy is set to make manager pull a reliever who gives up two earned runs. Surely the runs being unearned were what kept them in the game? And if so, doesn't that seem like a design oversight of some kind?
not sure on the "design" or whatever. but the relief pitcher does not get the benefit of an error that occurred 6-7 batters ago that didn't truly factor into his shelling.
the team ERA gets the benefit, but he got hammered, with or without the error, so his runs are earned.
