Barbara Baxley (1923-1990) was an American theatre, film, and television actress. The Barbara Baxley papers document her professional and personal life through scripts, photographs, scores, correspondence, publicity materials, programs, notes, and ephemera.
Barbara Baxley was born on January 1, 1923 in Stockton, California. She attended the University of the Pacific, where she acted in plays, and graduated with honors. She moved to New York, where she trained with Sanford Meisner and Martha Graham at the Neighborhood Playhouse, and with Elia Kazan at the Actors Studio.
Baxley made her Broadway debut as Sybil in the Tallulah Bankhead Private Lives (1948), and followed that with Peter Pan (1950), in which she understudied Jean Arthur in the title role. In 1951, she starred in a short-lived comedy, Out West of Eight, and in 1952, she replaced Julie Harris as Sally Bowles in I Am a Camera. Other Broadway appearances during the 1950s include Tennessee Williams' Camino Real (1953), the sex comedy Oh Men! Oh Women! (1953), Baxley's personal favorite: Clifford Odets' The Flowering Peach (1954), and William Inge's Bus Stop (1955), in which she replaced Kim Stanley as Cherie. Baxley also appeared in regional productions of Much Ado About Nothing (1955) in Chicago, and A Palm Tree in a Rose Garden (1957) in Cricket, New York. She starred in the National Tour of Inge's The Dark at the Top of the Stairs in 1959.
In the 1960s Baxley continued to be active on Broadway in Tennessee Williams' Period of Adjustment (1960), the musical She Loves Me (1963), Chekov's The Three Sisters (1964), and Neil Simon's Plaza Suite (1968). Other New York appearances included Brecht on Brecht (1962) at the Theatre de Lys; To Be Young, Gifted, and Black (1967) at the Cherry Lane Theatre; and Measure for Measure (1966) at the Delacorte Theatre. Baxley appeared in regional productions, such as Taming of the Shrew (1962) at the University of Oklahoma; The Misanthrope (1964) at the University of Chicago; The Grass Harp (1966) at the Trinity Square in Providence, Rhode Island; and The Merchant of Venice (1967) at the American Shakespeare Festival.
Baxley's stage work in the 1970s included Me Jack, You Jill and Best Friend on Broadway in 1976; The Scarecrow (1975) at the Kennedy Center; The Dream (1977) in Philadelphia; Past Tense (1977) at Hartford Stage; Are You Now or Have You Ever Been…? Off-Broadway; and the National Tour of Zorba (1972-1973). Her stage work in the 1980s was primarily in regional theatre, appearing in, among others, Mrs. Warren's Profession (1982) and Major Barbara (1984) at Yale Repertory; and starring in Sweet Bird of Youth (1984) at Portland State University. She also developed a one woman show during the early 1980s, first under the title Spooky Lady, and later changed to Wayward Wings.
Though Baxley was mainly known for her stage work, she was also active in film and television. Highlights of her film career include East of Eden (1955), The Savage Eye (1960), All Fall Down (1962), Nashville (1975), and Norma Rae (1979). In 1984, Baxley was a visiting professor, teaching acting at both Carnegie Mellon University and Portland State University. An active member of the organization, Baxley won the Actors Studio Award for Achievement in 1980.
Baxley married actor and playwright Doug Taylor in 1961. She died of a heart attack on June 7, 1990, in her New York City apartment.
The Barbara Baxley papers document the personal and professional life of American actress Barbara Baxley through scripts, photographs, scores, correspondence, publicity materials, programs, notes, and ephemera. Production files cover the theatre, film, and television projects Baxley appeared in over the course of her career. Production files include scripts, photographs, correspondence, notes, programs, publicity materials, and scores. This collection includes a small amount of personal files, documenting Baxley's personal life, to a certain extent, covering professional organizations she was involved in, and including items pertaining to prominent friends, such as actress Sandy Dennis and playwright William Inge. Materials include correspondence, notes, photographs, drawings, interviews, and childhood items.
Audio visual materials include one videocassette, two audiocassettes and two reel-to-reel tapes, pertaining to the productions All That Glitters and Wayward Wings, and to Baxley's teaching career. Audio/Visual materials may be subject to preservation evaluation and migration prior to access.
Baxley's 1980 Actors Studio Award has been separated to the T-Cabinet and will be available to researchers on request.
The Barbara Baxley papers are arranged in two series:
Series I: Productions
Production files cover the theatre, film, and television projects Baxley appeared in over the course of her career. Production files include scripts, with Baxley's annotations, and in some cases, there are also extensive notes written by Baxley on her ideas about the plays and characters. There are also photographs of Baxley's productions, in rehearsal, backstage, and in production, as well as posed publicity stills. While most of the correspondence in this collection can be found in Series II: Personal Files, congratulatory letters and telegrams, fan mail, and other correspondence pertaining to specific productions will be found here. Also included in this series are programs and publicity materials, including reviews, interviews, feature articles, flyers, and posters. Baxley appeared primarily in straight plays, but there is sheet music in the production files for musicals she appeared in, such as She Loves Me, The Grass Harp, A Little Night Music, and Zorba.
Series II: Personal Files
The bulk of this series consists of Baxley's personal correspondence. Though there are a few letters from friends and associates, the majority of this correspondence is between Baxley and her mother, Emma Tyler Baxley. This 30-year correspondence provides valuable insight into Baxley's life and career from the 1940s to the 1970s. There are also notes Baxley made for her lectures when she taught acting at Carnegie Mellon. She was an active member of The Actors Studio, and there are clippings and programs pertaining to her work with that organization. Baxley's childhood and family history are illustrated with photographs and documents, such as her birth certificate and a lesson book of her mother's. Baxley's friendship with actress Sandy Dennis is documented with photographs and a painting by Dennis. Baxley's long-standing professional association and personal friendship with the renowned playwright William Inge is represented here, with photographs, a drawing by Inge, a stack of hand-written reminiscences on Inge by Baxley, and correspondence, clippings, and programs relating to the William Inge Festival and the William Inge Collection, both in Independence, Kansas. Biographies, interviews, and general clippings on Baxley are also included in this series.

У термодинаміці та механіці рідини температура застою - це температура в точці застою в потоці рідини. У точці застою швидкість рідини дорівнює нулю, а вся кінетична енергія перетворюється на внутрішню енергію та додається до локальної статичної ентальпії . В обох стисному і нестисному потоках температура застою дорівнює загальній температурі в усіх точках потоку, що веде до точки застою.

Виведення

Адіабатичний
Температуру застою можна отримати з першого закону термодинаміки. Застосовуючи рівняння енергії постійного потоку  та ігноруючи доданки роботи, тепла і гравітаційного потенціалу, ми маємо:

де:

  застійна (або загальна) ентальпія в точці застою

  статична ентальпія в точці, що нас цікавить, уздовж лінії застою

  швидкість в точці, що нас цікавить, по лінії застою

Замінюючи ентальпію припустивши, що питома теплоємність постійна за умови постійного тиску (  ) ми маємо:

або

де:

  питома теплоємність при постійному тиску

  температура в точці застою

  температура (або статична температура) в точці, що становить інтерес, по лінії застою

  швидкість в точці, що цікавить, по лінії застою

  число Маха в точці, що становить інтерес, за маршрутом застою

  Коефіцієнт питомої теплоти (  ), ~1,4 для повітря при ~300 К

Потік з додаванням тепла

 q = тепло на одиницю маси, що додається в систему

Власне кажучи, ентальпія є функцією як температури, так і щільності. Однак, використовуючи загальне припущення про калорійно досконалий газ, ентальпія може бути перетворена безпосередньо в температуру, як зазначено вище, що дозволяє визначити температуру застою з точки зору більш фундаментальної властивості - ентальпії застою.

Властивості застою (наприклад, температура застою, тиск застою) корисні при розрахунках продуктивності реактивного двигуна. При роботі двигуна температуру застою часто називають загальною температурою повітря. Для вимірювання температури застою часто використовують біметалічну термопару, але необхідно враховувати термічне випромінювання.

Сонячні теплові колектори
Тестування продуктивності сонячних теплових колекторів використовує термін температури застою для позначення максимальної досяжної температури колектора зі стоячою рідиною (без руху), температурою навколишнього середовища 30° С та надхідним сонячним випромінюванням 1000 Вт/м2. Попередні цифри це значення найгіршого випадку, які дозволяють розробникам колекторів планувати сценарії у випадку потенційного перенагрівання у разі збою системи.

Narcos on Netflix is giving us a fictionalized look at the Medellín drug cartel in Colombia, but I'm just as fascinated by the real life individuals who inspired these characters. One, whose name has been changed, is Narcos' Valeria Velez — inspired by Virginia Vallejo. She is mostly based on a real person, with plenty of creative liberties taken for a personal touch. The journalist, who is played by Spectre star Stephanie Sigman on the Netflix series, has struck up a romance with Pablo Escobar, but how much of that is real? Who is Virginia Vallejo?
In fact, you should be hearing more from "the real Valeria Velez" in the next few months or year. Virginia Vallejo's novel, Loving Pablo; Hating Escobar will be released in English in 2016. Her writing has also been adapted into a movie called Escobar starring Javier Bardem as Pablo and Penelope Cruz as Virginia. These other projects, in my opinion, may be why Narcos changed her name. She's also still in danger, while relatively safe and openly expressing her opinion in this country, from threats and attacks on her person and character in Colombia. That, or the producers of Narcos wanted the liberty to invent additional details or motivations for her character.
Knowing this, I think it would be interesting to watch how much Velez observes from the inside on Narcos. She's definitely more than a love interest, which is super cool! It's cool to think of a character who represents the softer side of a show's "villan" being one of the most dangerous characters to everyone involved.

Messrs. George D. Watrous and Talcott H. Russell for plaintiff in error.
[203 U.S. 379, 380] Messrs. Leonard M. Daggett and E. P. Arvine for defendant in error.
This case involves the validity of an assessment of $36,879, against plaintiff in error, for the cost of paving between its tracks and for 1 foot on each side thereof. Plaintiff in error operates a double track electric railway through West Chapel street in New Haven.
In pursuance of certain laws of the state the court of common council, through a contractor, caused the street to be [203 U.S. 379, 382] paved with sheet asphalt. The work was begun in June, 1897, and completed in October or November of the same year. The city paid for the work, and, as provided by the statutes, assessed against plaintiff in error its proportion of the cost; to wit, $36,879. On appeal to the superior court for New Haven county, that court reduced the assessment to $5,823, and entered judgment against plaintiff in error for that sum.
'It is contended by the defendant that the assessment against the plaintiff is legal and valid under the act of 1895. Charter of New Haven, page 80.
'It is contended by the plaintiff that the act of 1895 is repealed by the act of 1899, Special Laws of 1899, p. 181; and if it is not repealed, the act of 1895 is unconstitutional and void.
'Inasmuch as I hold and rule that the act of 1895 is repealed by the act of 1899, it is unnecessary to pass upon the constitutionality of the former. The intention and effect of the latter act is to repeal the former. The last act covers the whole subjectmatter of assessments for benefits and damages arising from paved streets, and provides expressly for the assessments of benefits and damages for pavements already constructed in West Chapel street.
Upon the appeal of the city the judgment was reversed by the supreme court of errors. 75 Conn. 442, 53 Atl. 960. On the return of the case to the superior court that court rendered judgment dismissing the application of plaintiff in error, and confirming and establishing the assessment of $ 36,879. The judgment was reversed by the supreme court of errors and the case remanded to the superior court, with directions to deduct from the assessment the cost of repair. In accordance with this direction the superior court deducted from the assessment the sum of $3,590.85, and confirmed the assessment less such deduction. This judgment was affirmed by the supreme court of errors.
It was provided ( 13) that the act might be altered, amended, or repealed at the pleasure of the general assembly.
The charter was amended July 9, 1864, and the company was authorized to lay down its tracks and run its cars through Chapel street, subject to the prohibitions of the 9th section of its original charter.
In 1893 a general law was passed applicable to all railways [203 U.S. 379, 384] by 6 of which it was previded that every street railway was required to keep so much of the street or highway as is included within its tracks, and a space of 2 feet on the outer side of the outer rails, in repair, to the satisfaction of the authorities of the city, town, or borough which was bound by law to maintain such street or highway. More expensive material, however, was not to be required than that used on the other parts of the street, except, however, for a space of 1 foot on each side of each rail, unless a more expensive kind of material was required in the order permitting the original location of such railway. If the railway company did not make such repairs after notice, it was provided that the city might do so, and recover the expense thereof from the company. And it was provided that the act should be deemed an amendment to the charters of all existing railway companies.
By supplement to this act, passed in March, 1897, it was provided that, in estimating the cost of each square yard to be assessed, the entire cost of laying the pavement and the agreement to keep the pavement in repair for a period not exceeding fifteen years should be considered.
An act passed, April 28, 1899, provided for an assessment [203 U.S. 379, 385] upon the 'grand list' 1 mill on the dollar for the paving of streets, to be expended only for the original construction of pavements. There was a provision for the laying of benefits and damages, and a specification of limits of the assessment, varying with the kind of material used for paying. Assessment of benefits and damages for the pavement on certain streets and on West Chapel street were required to be laid in accordance with the provision of the act. Anyone aggrieved by the assessment was given the right of appeal to the superior court. The act was declared to be an amendment to the charter of the city, and acts inconsistent therewith were repealed. The liability of street railway companies under the general laws was preserved.
The statutes and the assessments made under them are attacked by plaintiff in error as repugnant to the contract clause of the Constitution of the United States and the 14th Amendment.
But this does not militate with the ruling of the supreme court of errors, nor indicate that the court did not consider the claims and requests of plaintiff in error. The ruling was based upon the application or pleadings, and it is not contended that the court's view of the application or pleadings was erroneous. Indeed, on the return of the case to the superior court an application was made by plaintiff in error for leave to amend its application by adding six paragraphs, setting out the grounds indicated above and other grounds why the assessment was an unconstitutional exercise of the authority in terms conferred by the act of 1895. The motion was denied on the ground (1) that the court had no power to [203 U.S. 379, 387] allow the amendment, and (2) that the amendment ought not, as a matter of discretion, to be allowed. The ruling was affirmed by the supreme court of errors. Justifying its ruling, the court denied that it thereby enforced a stringent rule of pleading, but said it enforced only the familiar one which confined the evidence to the matters pleaded, and that it was the duty of plaintiff in error to have made its application full enough to cover all the claims desired to be made.
So, deciding between the statutes, the court adjudged that [203 U.S. 379, 388] the act of 1895 was constitutional, on the ground that it was a proper exercise of the police power of the state, and on the ground that the act was an exertion of the power reserved by the state of altering, amending, or repealing the charter of the railway company. If either ground is tenable the judgment must be affirmed. We will place our decision on the second ground, as being of more local character, and because the exercise of the power expressed only comes under our review in its excesses.
We accept the decision of the supreme court of errors, that the statutes were intended as an exercise of the power of amendment reserved by the state, although plaintiff in error contends that such was not their intention. The court treated the question involved as primarily one on statutory construction, and 'best approached,' to use the language of the court, 'by an examination of the statutory situation,' and upon that examination pronounced its conclusion that 'the act of 1895 was in effect an amendment of the plaintiff's charter,' citing Bulkley v. New York & N. H. R. Co. 27 Conn. 479; New York & N. E. R. Co. v. Waterbury, 60 Conn. 1, 22 Atl. 439. Was such an amendment in excess of the power of the state? The limitation upon the power of amendment of charters of corporations has been defined by this court several times. It is said in one case that such power may be exercised to make any alteration or amendment in a charter granted that will not defeat or substantially impair the object of the grant or any rights which have vested under it, which the legislature may deem necessary to secure either the object of the grant or any other public right not expressly granted away by the charter. Holyoke Water- Power Co. v. Lyman, 15 Wall. 522, 21 L. ed. 140. In another case it was said that the 'alterations must be reasonable; they must be made in good faith, and be consistent with the scope and object of the act of incorporation. Sheer oppression and wrong cannot be inflicted under the guise of amendment or alteration.' Shields v. Ohio, 95 U.S. 324 , 24 L. ed. 359. Later cases have repeated these definitions. [203 U.S. 379, 389] Sinking Fund Cases, 99 U.S. 720 , 25 L. ed. 502; Greenwood v. Union Freight R. Co. 105 U.S. 13 , 26 L. ed. 961; Close v. Glenwood Cemetery, 107 U.S. 476 , 27 L. ed. 412, 2 Sup. Ct. Rep. 267. In the Sinking Fund Cases, it was said that whatever regulations of a corporation could have been inserted in its charter can be added by amendment. All the cases are reviewed and their principles affirmed in Stanislaus County v. San Joaquin & K. River Canal & Irrig. Co. 192 U.S. 201 , 48 L. ed. 406, 24 Sup. Ct. Rep. 241, and water rates fixed by the board of supervisors of the county of Stanislaus under a law of the state sustained though the income come of the company was reduced from 1 1/2 per cent per month to 6 per cent per annum.
In the light of these cases let us examine what the statutes of Connecticut require of plaintiff in error. By its original charter (1862) plaintiff in error was required to keep the street between its tracks, with a space of 2 feet on each side of the tracks, in good and sufficient repair. In the amendment of the charter in 1864 this obligation was retained, and also in the public acts of 1893. In the act of 1895 the duty of paving and repaving was imposed on all railway companies. We shall assume, for the purpose of our discussion, that the duty to repair did not include the duty to pave and repave, although much can be said and cases can be cited against the assumption. Does the change and increase of burden upon the plaintiff in error come within the limitations upon the reserved power of the state? Has it no proper relation to the objects of the grant to the company or any of the public rights of the state? Can it be said to be exercised in mere oppression and wrong? All of these questions must be answered in the negative. The company was given the right to occupy the streets. It exercised this right first with a single track, and afterwards with a double track. Before granting this right the state certainly could have, and reasonably could have, put upon the company the duty of paving as well as of repairing. Such requirement would have been consistent with the object of the grant. It is yet consistent with the object of the grant. It is not imposed in sheer oppression and wrong, and the good faith of the [203 U.S. 379, 390] state cannot be questioned. It is imposed in the exercise of one of the public rights of the state,-the establishment, maintenance, and care of its highways. The extent of this right is illustrated by West Chicago Street R. Co. v. Illinois, 201 U.S. 506 , 50 L. ed. 845, 26 Sup. Ct. Rep. 518, and cases cited.

While many individuals struggle with excess amounts of body fat, some people have a hard time gaining weight. Depo-Provera, often called Depo, is a prescription contraceptive drug that contains progestin. Your doctor must prescribe and administer this injectible contraceptive once every three months. Although weight gain is one possible side effect of Depo, eating a calorie-dense, nutritious diet can improve your chances of gaining weight as well.
Weigh yourself before you begin using Depo and before you start your new diet. Write down your current weight on a calendar to help you keep track of your gains. Aim for a healthy weight gain goal of about 1 lb. each week by adding about 500 to 1,000 calories a day to your normal diet.
Eat regular meals. Consume about 20 to 35 percent of your calories in the form of healthy fats, such as nut butters and plant oils. Consume heavy, whole-grain breads, rather than plain, white bread. Calorie-dense breads include pumpernickel, honey bran and rye. Increase the caloric content of your bread by spreading on butter, honey or peanut butter. Include starchy vegetables, such as carrots, corn and peas, with your meals. Consume high-calorie beans, including refried beans, lima beans and chili beans.
Eat two to three snacks each day. Choose bran muffins, avocados, crackers with cheese, cereal with milk, toast with peanut butter and dried fruits, which contain plenty of calories. Snack on meaty fruits, rather than watery ones. For instance, choose bananas, mangoes and pineapples over apples, watermelons and peaches. Choose sweets that include nutrients, such as yogurt, granola bars and fruit pies.
Drink beverages that contain calories, rather than sticking with plain water or drinks that contain low-calorie sweeteners. Include milk, smoothies and juices in your daily intake of fluids. Consume your caloric beverages at least a half hour before your meals to avoid ruining your appetite. Drinking these mid-afternoon or before you go to bed can help increase your weight without affecting your regular meals.
Begin a strength-training program to help you increase your weight by building muscle mass. A regular exercise routine might also help stimulate your appetite and make you want to eat more calories throughout the day.
Talk to your doctor about any unusual side effects you experience while on Depo. These can include headaches, weakness, abdominal discomfort, abnormal vaginal bleeding and dizziness.

Atlas Ocean Racing powered by Groupe Esprit de Corps
Thursday June 14, 2017 – Kingston, ON
There was an unexpected change of course for Groupe Esprit de Corps (GEDC) on May 17th when Canadian Gilles Barbot and his crew turned their race efforts into a rescue mission. The Volvo 60 was in the midst of sailing in the Antigua Bermuda Race- a total of 935 nautical miles across the Atlantic.
Barbot and his team veered in the direction of the distressed ship to assist skipper Les Crane and the crew of Monterey who had to abandon their sinking Farr 56 in the early hours of May 17th, 200 miles from the finish in Bermuda. "When the first orange safety flare appeared in the sky, illuminating Groupe Esprit de Corps foredeck, the bearing to take was for once, very obvious," says Tristan Péloquin, GEDC crew.
Groupe Esprit de Corps and Monterey were approximately four or five miles apart and were unable to establish radio communication for about 20 minutes. Eventually, Les Crane's voice emerged on the static radio confirming that they were taking on a lot of water but were ok and boarding the rescue raft. The Monterey sank minutes later.
Groupe Esprit de Corps welcomed 6 new crew members aboard and from there a friendship emerged, sharing race duties, bunk beds, food and lots of philosophical reflexions. "Gilles (Barbot), Maxime (Grimard) and the crew from Montreal are a fabulous bunch of guys. They made us feel so welcome on board and got us all involved in racing the boat. I can't thank them enough for what they've done," said Les Crane.
"It's in the highly emotional moments like these that relationships tend to crystallize. These new friendships will definitely remain strong, for a long time," said skipper Gilles Barbot.
We applaud such heroic efforts by Gilles, Luc, Simon, Maxime, Philippe, Karen, Tristan, Charlotte, André and Tiberius!
Congratulations to Helly Hansen Sailor of the Month – Atlas Ocean Racing powered by Groupe Esprit de Corps – Montreal, QC.
Groupe Esprit de Corps Crew List: Gilles Barbot, Luc Dubois, Simon DuBois, Maxime Grimard, Philippe Lefebvre, Karen Marshall, Tristan Peloquin, Charlotte Rousselot, André Roy, Tiberius Trifu.
Monterey Crew List: Les Crane, Cam Macrae, Jock Macrae, Bob Medland, Kit Tatum, and James Watlington.

In 2013, the notion of Gurus was conceived. Within that little boutique shop germinated the idea or resurrecting iconic-gear once masterminded by the technological gurus of the '50s, '60s and '70's; an epoch when gear was invented to be an extension of a musician's own hands, as a pen was to scribe the history of music.
This was and is the Gurus vision. As musicians and vintage gear aficionados, Gurus understand those legendary sounds and tones. With the greatest reverence, they have used modern technology to reinterpret those historical machines of the past, but always while respecting the original imagination, genius of the creator and soul of the original unit.
The three pieces of the puzzle have come together. The coupling of Gurus, with engineering passion that is Baroni-Lab to the birth of Foxgear, their dream has come to fruition. Working as a team in their state-of-the-art facilities with extraordinarily talented engineers from around the globe to produce the finest products available. They always keep at heart the idea of uncompromised quality and the enduring principle that their products are machines that ultimately join with the musician in the creative process.

On Valentine's Day, the One Heart Foundation, Apple Drive Project and Quota International Cebu joined hands to distribute slippers, apples and hygiene kits to the more than 400 students who are still coping trauma due to Yolanda.
Filipino-Canadian Youtube sensation Mikey Bustos serenaded the students and the teachers with their still destroyed school buildings due to the typhoon remain a strong reminder of what happened on November 8, 2013.
"I've done a lot of concerts to raise money and help victims indirectly in the past natural disasters, but now I want to help on site. My friends asked me to come to Tacloban," said Bustos, who was accompanied by American volunteers.
For 11-year-old pupil Kristine Cormero, receiving gifts further uplifts a child's spirit weakened by super typhoon's fury. The storm has killed six of her relatives including an aunt, uncle and cousins.
"Receiving these gifts means a lot to me especially that we lost a lot of important things when the typhoon struck our village," Kristine said.
The day earlier, the One Heart Foundation and its partner non-government organization also distributed gifts to pupils and students in San Antonio village in Basey, Samar.
"We're giving out hundreds of Havaianas flip flops because we want children to be proud of their foot wear. In provinces, shoes are not really a norm and everybody wears flip flops," said Noel Galang, the operations manager of the Los Angeles-based foundation backed by Filipinos in the United States.
RJ Garcia, Apple Drive Project founder, said giving out apples has been the symbol of their activities on educating children on healthy lifestyle.
"Most kids had never held nor tasted an apple. Apples, to them, are sort of a myth, something they just saw or heard the teacher talk about. I always love to see children in their first taste of apple," he said.
"After our recent visit to Leyte and Samar areas, we found that people need more than food and shelter," said Elisa Torres, the group's president.
For school principal Elsa De Paz, gift giving and serenading school children is one way to help children cope up from traumatic stress brought about by Yolanda.

Health insurance is an important thing to have, but many small companies don't bother getting it for their employees? Larger companies are often required by law in the United States to carry health insurance for their employees, but for fewer than 50 employees there is no such requirement at this time. So why should the smaller companies supply health insurance for their employees? Why waste that money? Well here are a few reasons that any business should consider getting health insurance for their employees.
First and foremost is company moral. If you supply health insurance for your workers, you are showing them you care for them and are concerned about their health and existence. Many employees won't talk about how much they make, but they will often brag on what good health coverage they have. Not worrying about their family's health, as not everyone can afford good health coverage, is also a great deal of relief and will raise the employee's moral. The better the moral a company has the better the workers will work, and the more money is made, it's a win-win situation.
If you carry health insurance, you will find you have less of a turnover in the company. Good health insurance will help you keep good employees. It is hard to find a job normally, but to find a good job and one that has good health insurance is even harder. So there is less chance that they will leave the company. When people have a family, as opposed to just being single, they have a lot more to think about when moving to a new job. Giving them the benefit of health insurance will make it all that harder for them to leave.
Just as it will make it harder for employees to leave the company, having good health benefits will make it easier to steal good employees from other companies. Especially from a company that doesn't offer the same benefits. Just look around online where people talk about jobs, the offering of a good benefits package is one of the first things they talk about.
With a good health package, people will go to the doctors more and stay healthier. Without health insurance, people have a higher chance of getting sicker and staying off work. For example, strep throat is contagious for months unless you take prescription penicillin, and if you take the penicillin its only contagious for 3 days or so. So what would you prefer, everyone, getting sick in the building or just one person off for a few days? Health insurance can pay for itself over time.
Getting health insurance for your employees saves you taxes, as you can use it as a deduction. It can save your employee money as well. If an employee buys health insurance on their own, they are buying it with post-tax money, their paycheck. If the company buys it, it is a tax deduction and the employee is getting a benefit of the insurance without having to pay tax on it.
Though it might cost the company money according to the accountant, and you might see it as a wasted expense, it has many benefits that you might not realize initially. People are the greatest asset your business has, regardless of what you are selling. Keeping the best ones and making them happy should be one of the primary functions of the owner. Finding great people and keeping them will make your business grow. So that unnecessary expense can actually make your business grow and prosper. Treat your employees right and they will make your life better.

Seven years ago, Valerie Gundary learned she had breast cancer, so she changed her lifestyle, changed her life and created a nontoxic skin care product line and the Detox Market.
Most of us never think twice about what we put on our skin. Chemicals added to almost all skin care products, no matter how glamorous or prestigious the brand name, contain preservatives that guarantee shelf life of up to four years and many are known carcinogens. Parabens and phenalthalates have been banned in Europe, the U.S. and elsewhere because they've been linked to among other things, breast cancer.
"Six years ago, I felt like my life was over and I was really down, says Odacité president and CEO, Valerie Gundary. "But it was the event I needed to come to what I really liked to do."
Her fight against the disease led to a mastectomy and chemotherapy. It was a no-nonsense wake-up call. "While I was in the hospital, a voice in my head told me, 'You have to change everything.'"
And she did. "I used to be a film producer, a stressful job, so I sold my company, my house in the Hollywood Hills, moved to Topanga and decided to detoxify my life."
The first thing Gundary did to heal was go to the Optimum Health Institute (OHI) in San Diego where she detoxed on raw foods. "I also detoxed from past traumas that are just as toxic and reconnected with my spirituality. OHI has a testimonial session every Friday where people tell their stories that are always about changing their lifestyle; miraculous stories are always about changing something that is making you sick in life. "
Gundary revisited everything about her life, followed a vegan diet, added meditation and yoga, studied the "Power of Plants" and everything healthy. "It made a huge difference," she says. "I detoxed for six months and mixed it with conventional therapies of a mastectomy and chemo. I didn't want to do radiation or drug therapy and then went on this diet. I go back to OHI every year and it's the best holiday ever. I'm away from everything for a week and it allows me to be myself with no external stimulation.
During her healing process, people started asking her for advice about alternative routes for health. She started counseling and coaching people, then went back to school. Still, she felt she had something more to do and wanted to share what she had learned.
"I'm in my fifties and everything I'm good at is chrystallized in making Odacité and helping women prevent things that I didn't prevent for myself."
She had started making her own skin care products because none of the organics had a manufacturer's date on it. "If you want a nutritional value in a product, it has to be fresh," she admonishes. "I didn't have the energy to start another company, but it's interesting how the universe comes to you."
Out of the blue, a friend and financial guru in Silicon Valley, Romain Gaillard, called her for coaching. She invited him to spend the weekend in Topanga and she would trade her coaching for a business plan. "He watched me make my products and thought it was amazing. I asked him if he thought I could turn it into a company. He replied it would be hard for him to do a business plan because there was no business model for what I was doing."
"You just need the audacity to do it," he told her and that's where the name originated.
"We used the 'O' because it was organic, 'O' for the planet and 'O' for the female symbol," Gundary recalls. "Then, being French, I wanted it to sound French and changed the spelling from the French word, 'audacité,' to 'Odacité.'" Gaillard partnered with her and they created it.
The next step was finding a lab to make it and they spent a year scouting for labs and refining the product.
"The process of finding a lab was conducting a series of interviews with labs that specialize in formulating organic products," she says. "The hard part was to convince them to follow us on the concept of freshly made. It took us six months to find the right one that was animated with a passion for organically pure products."
She chose ingredients for their track record of high antioxidant activity. "We tried to design a very potent line that would deliver anti-aging benefits, difficult to do in the organic world, because when products are manufactured to have a two- to three-year shelf life, they lose their antioxidant activity. Worse, oils can become rancid and filled with free radicals," Gundary says. "The Federal Drug Adminstration (FDA) does not rule on skin care. There actually is very little regulation in skin care and this is how we end up with so many toxic ingredients in personal care products."
Gundary launched the business in June 2009 – right in the middle of the recession. But people were looking for something organic, freshly made and good for you. "You can research every ingredient in my products and know why it's there," says Gundary. "We have a lot of pregnant women using our products."
She began marketing Odacité with an interview in France and the American press soon followed suit.
"There's a great thing about selling on the Internet. We ship carbon free from the Topanga post office to 22 countries. The U.S. is the biggest market and it's mostly word of mouth. That's the most important thing: when somebody tries it and tells their friends.
"My skin coaching is mostly for people with sensitive or mature skin. You don't have to compromise beautiful health. You can find something that works that is non-toxic."
When someone calls, she consults with the customer to create a routine and sends them samples to see if it works. "Our website goes beyond skin care with the message that it's just as important to put something healthy on your skin as it is to eat right." Gundary also has an Odacité Facebook page with healthy tips and recipes.
Grandury and Gaillard have created the Detox Market at 1524 Abbot Kinney Blvd. in Venice, a collaborative pop-up store of hard-to-find, best-in-breed, eco-friendly brands that you can visit throughout the holiday season until December 31.
Traveling from city to city, the Detox Market introduces carefully screened green brands in beauty, fashion and food to the consumer who wants to detoxify their body and living environment.
Follow the event schedule at thedetoxmarket.com for complimentary demos, tastings, facials, hair styling, manicures and parties. Warm and knowledgeable staff will share vital information on how small changes can make a big difference in your overall well‐being.
"Of course, a person's attitude is also important," she says. "Every morning I wake up in Topanga, walk my dog and walk in nature and I'm always in happy mode. Four years ago, I would never have said that I'd be in Topanga in a business that does healthy skin care. I went from being a film producer in a crazy world to this. I have a lot to be grateful for."

Q: How to implement type classes for recursive generics? I would like to use type classes to provide a specialized implementation for a generic class. The trouble is the class is recursive, and I did not find a way how to write the code so that is works. Here is my attempt:
object Compare {
  trait Compare[T <: Compare[T]] {
    def compare(that: T): Boolean
  }

  trait IsCompare[T] {
    def check: Boolean
  }

  trait LowerLevelImplicits {
    implicit def defaultCompare[T]: IsCompare[T] = new IsCompare[T] {
      def check = false
    }
  }

  trait Implicits extends LowerLevelImplicits {
    implicit def isCompare[T: Compare]: IsCompare[T] = new IsCompare[T] {
      def check = true
    }
  }

  case class MyClass(value: Int) extends Compare[MyClass] {
    override def compare(that: MyClass) = this equals that
  }
}

import Compare._

object Main extends App with Implicits {

  def matchArray[T: IsCompare](array: Array[T]) = {
    if (implicitly[IsCompare[T]].check) {
      println("Using isCompare")
    } else {
      println("Not using isCompare")
    }
  }

}

The error is:

Error:(17, 29) type arguments [T] do not conform to trait Compare's type parameter bounds [T <: Compare.Compare[T]]
implicit def isCompare[T: Compare]: IsCompare[T] = new IsCompare[T] {

View Full Version : Refurbished stories?
Evening to you all, i am brand new around these parts. I hope to have great lengthy conversations with you all about the greatest computer company to ever grace this green earth, but to the subject at hand.
Tax season is right around the corner and I'm treating myself to a powerbook. Now, I would like a 15 inch brand-new, but refurbs are amazingly cheap, and my company gets a $200 discount off of the price of any refurb. Anyone had any luck from an Apple refubished item? any stories for me to go on?
do they have refurbs in the actual apple stores?
Some of them (some smaller ones don't).
One thing, if you go the refurb route: buy AppleCare... you never know whether or not whatever problems that caused it to be returned might manifest themselves in the future. I've had my iBook for almost a year and I'm finally getting around to purchasing AppleCare.
im going to the one in Nashville.
Anyone had any luck from an Apple refubished item? any stories for me to go on?Not personally but they are by reputation very reliable. I'd be more than happy to buy a refurb at some point.
Just picked up a refurbished iMac G5 (rev.B) 20 inch over the holidays.
So far so good. No dead pixels and there isn't the problems associated with rev. A.
However, there is an ever so tiny nick in on one edge...not really noticible unless you look closely. Was kind of bummed out with that, but with the savings, I can't really complain too much. More of a hassle to send it back.
In the past I have picked up an original iPod from the refurb site and it was in pristine new condition.
My friend had a pretty crappy mp3 player that was like... a giant metal box with a hard to navigate ugly UI. He saved up some money and bought a refurbished 30 gig iPod photo (I think?) and it worked great for oh, a month or so, then it crashed. He sent it in and Apple sent him a brand new one! Again, he just transferred his music on to the new iPod and went on with life. Suddenly, the second one went caput but I can't exactly remember what it was, but I'm thinking it was a hardware issue. As of now this new(ish) one they've sent him works great, and it's lasted the longest without any issues. I was impressed by the fact that Apple was happy to take care of his iPod woes so quickly and effortlessley. It really was like no questions asked.
I've never had a problem with refurbed. Macs, just iPods.
I've had to send back 2 refurbished iPods because the hard drives died on each of them less than a month into use. Now I am on my third, and everything looks like smooth sailing for now.


I just created an account, primarily for the purpose of saying thank you!
I'm gonna throw in my own suggestion because why not.
Ah yes, that would be an interesting chibi.
It's been a while~ but I've finally had some time back with my parts collection and built a thing!
Here's Buskyte, self-MOC of @Kemzal as suggested by @Hawkflight!
I can see having both his mask and Raxonax's being handy in the fusion. This fella's got a special boxing glove arrow to punch from a distance!
I'd like to nominate @ThatchMac's self-MOC, Chameleo.
Another one! Here's Eruei, self-MOC of GoldenArpeggio AKA L.A. Miranda as suggested by @CoconutFanatic!
This still going? If so, how bout @ValerixTheGodsDemon ?

Consumers call for fixed fees as small law firms struggle
Posted by Legal Futures
Upwardly mobile: the legal market as a whole is on the up, but this is mainly due to larger firms
Law firms and other legal providers that offer consumers fixed fees "are likely to have a clear competitive advantage" over those that bill by the hour, new research has shown.
The report, by IRN Research, also forecasts that the UK legal services market will grow by just under 4% in 2012, and slightly more in 2013 – but this will mainly be driven by larger law firms, with smaller ones struggling.
IRN's annual review of the legal market found "little evidence" that external investors are queuing up to take a stake in law firms.
The report said new competition, the growth of online legal services, and pressures from clients are all beginning to change many traditional pricing models.
Its poll of 2,000 consumers found that for relatively simple legal matters such as conveyancing or making a will, over 80% of consumers would like to see fixed fees. A majority (59%) would also prefer them for divorce cases.
The result was less clear-cut for more complicated cases; for personal injury and clinical negligence cases, 38% of consumers wanted fixed fees but 37% said they would opt for a conditional fee agreement. For employment law, 43% preferred fixed fees, and 22% some form of conditional fee agreement.
IRN also asked 64 law firms to choose the top three negative factors likely to impact on their businesses in the next 12 months. While 38% identified pressure on fees, new competition and increased practice costs were both named by 53% of respondents. Around a third were worried about compliance with outcomes-focused regulation.
The report estimated that the legal services market was worth £26.4bn in 2011, up 3.2% on 2010. It predicted growth of almost 4% in 2012 at current prices to £27.5bn, and a further 4.2% in 2013. A third of the market is business and commercial law, with personal injury/clinical negligence accounting for 14% and commercial property 12%.
However, it said that while most larger law firms and those legal suppliers processing large volumes of cases are likely to continue to post revenue growth ahead of the market, "many smaller firms will find it difficult to improve their financial performance, particularly as competition intensifies in some consumer law sectors. Profit margins for many smaller firms will continue to be weak".
In the short term, IRN said it does not expect to see too many non-legal national brands entering the market. "Rather, some existing players that have been building market share in recent years will strengthen their positions in the market."
It continued: "However, over the longer term, we do believe that more large national brands will start to explore the opportunities once they have seen the experiences of the early movers. Major consumer brands like the supermarkets, high street retailers, and the financial services companies have large consumer databases, significant consumer recognition and loyalty, financial and marketing muscle, and distribution networks.
"All these will help these national brands to offer legal services that are cheaper, while more accessible and convenient, than most traditional law firms."
IRN suggested that sole practitioners – "with low overheads and the flexibility to deal with market changes" – may be able to cope better with these pressures than firms of four or five partners "where overheads are harder to cut and changes more difficult to make".
On external investment, it said: "While many larger law firms appear to be an attractive proposition for external investors there is little evidence yet that many outside investors are queuing up to take a stake.
"Large law firms have relatively stable cash flows, an established business track record, and offer opportunities for further growth through for example acquisitions, overseas expansion, or the development of new practice areas. However, external investors need a quick return, and the partner management structure and payment of profits direct to law firm partners are likely to be major obstacles for potential external investors."
Such investors as have expressed an interest are most likely to seek out these larger firms and other "legal services operators able to bring a significant volume of process-led legal work to the table, for example, law firms with a large volume of conveyancing, personal injury, or family law work or even claims management companies or legal process outsourcers. There may also be interest in some of the fast-growing boutique law firms".
external investment
high street firms
Michael Loveridge says:
Unfortunately I suspect this research is seriously compromised because of the general ignorance of the public about the provision of legal services.
My poiunt is illustrated perfectly by the comment:
"for personal injury and clinical negligence cases, 38% of consumers wanted fixed fees but 37% said they would opt for a conditional fee agreement. "
As no sane person would choose a fixed fee in preference to a conditional fee agreement this is a crystal clear indication that the interviewees simply didn't understand the options, and/or that the interviewer failed to communicate them effectively.
