A Day in Oslo
By: Cityseeker
This is Oslo's main street, a pedestrian area leading from the central station to the palace. Visitors can watch the world go by at one of the street's numerous watering holes or simply follow the crowds down the road, past street vendors and entertainers, past the parliament, national theatre, Grand Hotel and the university. With hundreds of different shops, the street is also a Mecca for shopaholics. The park between the parliament and national theater is turned into an ice-rink in the winter.

Parliament of Norway
The Parliament building houses the Norwegian Storting (Parliament) and dates back to 1866. The magnificent building was designed by the renowned architect Emil Victor Langlet. The facade is a beautiful blend of styles, mainly inspired from Italy and France. Visitors can enroll themselves for a guided tour of the entire structure. Private tours for groups can also be arranged upon request. The tours last approximately one hour. Admission is free.
Kvadraturen
Kvadraturen is the heart of Christian IV's town Christiania, built after the town of Oslo was burnt down in 1624. The city was not renamed Oslo until 300 years later. The sculpture on Christiania Torv square symbolizes the King's words, when he decided 'The new town will lie here'. A statue of the King himself can be found on Stortorvet. Kvadraturen offers fine dining at Statholdergaarden, Mediterranean dishes at Celsius or dine in modern elegance at Brasserie Hansken.
Båtservice Sightseeing
Båtservice Sightseeing organizes fantastic sightseeing excursions by boat and coach. You can do anything from a mini-cruise on the fjord (50 minutes) to all-day combination tours by boat and coach, covering most of Oslo's attractions and landmarks. There is a tour for everyone! All tours depart from Pier 3 in front of the Town Hall. The season goes from May to September. The price varies depending on the tour. See their website for further details on times and prices, or call for a brochure.
Oslo Public Library
Oslo's main library was established more than 200 years ago, when Carl Deichman bequeathed his vast collection of books to the city. Today, the Oslo Public Library houses over one million volumes. You will find the library building not far from the Trefoldighetskirken and the Goverment Offices. It is within easy walking distance of the city center. Supplementing the main building, there are 16 more specialized branches of the library scattered throughout the city.
Norway's Resistance Museum
Situated within the walls of the beautiful Akershus Fortress in an over 300 year-old, half-timbered house, this permanent exhibition takes you through the history of the Norwegian resistance movement during World War II. Small models of many of the encounters, particularly during 1940, along with many authentic photos, equipment, and documents from the war-torn era are on display as well. Guided tours for groups are available if booked ahead of time.
The old workshops on the seafront beneath the town hall, belonging to Akers Mekaniske Verksted, have been converted into one of Oslo's most popular shopping and nightlife areas, Aker Brygge. There are places to eat and shop, art galleries, theaters, an IMAX and a regular cinema. A walk along the waterfront is a great way to spend a fine summer afternoon. Take trams 10 or 15 or walk from Akershus fortress past a children's play area and numerous ice-cream stalls.
Norwegian Nobel Institute
This handsome building on Drammensveien near the Royal Palace is the home of the Norwegian Nobel Committee. Every year the Committee selects a Peace Prize winner, based on the criteria that Alfred Nobel (the Swede who left a fund for an annual Peace Prize) specified in his will. Up to 1946, the Peace Prize was awarded at the Institute, but today, the award ceremony takes place in Oslo's Town Hall. The ceremony takes place on 10 December every year, to mark the day of Alfred Nobel's death in 1896.
Astrup Fearnley Museum
Originally founded in 1993 at Dronningens Gate, this modern museum features a series of temporary and permanent exhibitions by Norwegian and international artists from the post-war era. The permanent collection includes Anselm Kieferen's sculpture, The High Priestess/Zweistromland, a monumental bookshelf with a good collection of books made of lead, and one of Damien Hirst's best-known pieces, Mother and Child Divided. Towards the end of 2012, Astrup Fearnley Museum shifted its location to Oslo's Tjuvholmen neighborhood. Call ahead for more information.
Norwegian Museum of Cultural History
Norsk Folkemuseum, the open-air museum that has been giving visitors a peek into a life-sized past for over a century, contains more than 150 authentic buildings from different regions. The buildings date from as far back as medieval times, including the 13th-century Gol Stave Church. The permanent exhibition features sections on handicrafts, traditional clothing and the culture of the Sami people. A souvenir shop, cafe and restaurant are located on the grounds.
Bygdy Peninsula
Bygdy is a peninsula packed with leisure activities for everyone. Many of the city's museums are situated here, and you can easily spend the whole day visiting them. The Vikingskiphuset are a must. There are also great beaches, which are excellent for swimming and sun-bathing. You could see the King's farm, or visit a small castle used as a summer residence by a previous king. Alternatively, take a pleasant stroll among the many magnificent houses of this affluent residential area (home to former prime minister Gro Harlem Brundtland). The best way to get there in the summer is by ferry from the pier in front of the Town Hall. Bus number 30 will get you there all year round.
Emanuel Vigeland Museum
The former studio of sculptor Gustav Vigeland's lesser-known brother, Emanuel, is now a combined museum and mausoleum. The windowless, church-like room plays tricks on your eyes when you enter, but after a few minutes an impressive mural covering the walls and ceiling will unravel, a truly awe-inspiring representation of entire human life.

The activities were split in two phases: first, a week with interviews of key opinion leaders (KOLs) of leading East Coast rehabilitation hospitals and second, a few days focused on networking with incubators and the startup-ecosystem in the Boston area, in addition to several meetings, facilitated by Swissnex, with specialists on legal topics, market research and others. "The feedback of the KOLs was very positive: the need for a product such as the "ARYS™ me" is enormous. The inpatient stay in hospitals or rehabilitation clinics after a stroke is shorter than in Europe. Therefore, remote patient monitoring and patient reported outcome is in high demand", he stated.
What's to come in the future for yband therapy? According to Christoph, good things are on the way. "We have now kicked off the detailed planning for the US market entry, and one of the very important steps is to clarify the regulatory pathway", he said. Stay tuned, because 2019 promises to be an exciting year for our company as we explore challenging new horizons.

Title : Opioid system and rewarding effects of alcohol consumption
It has been described a b-endorphin deficiency in alcoholic patients or in men with a family history of alcoholism. It is well known that alcohol consumption release b-endorphin from hypothalamus; therefore, it has been hypothesized that high alcohol intake in alcoholics could be due to a compensatory strategy with the purpose of increase the b-endorphin levels. There are two opioid pathways that apparently are involved in the rewarding effects of alcohol. The main one is characterized for the projections from arcuate nucleus to ventral tegmental area (VTA). In VTA there are interneurons GABA that have an inhibitory action on dopamine (DA) neurons; this GABA neurons contain m-opioid receptors (MOR); therefore, when b-endorphin binding these receptors, GABA neurons are inhibited and DA release is facilitated, increasing this way the rewarding effects of alcohol. In the other pathway DA is no directly involved; in this case, when alcohol release b-endorphin from arcuate nucleus its action is directly on nucleus accumbens (NAc), afterwards, the disinhibition of projections to structures as ventral pallidum seems to be an additional mechanism of alcohol rewarding. Besides the activation or inhibition of opioid receptors, the density and probable a differential sensitivity of MORs seems to play an important role in rewarding effects of alcohol. It has been described higher density of MOR in rats selected genetically for its alcohol preference when compared with no-preference rats, mainly in structures of mesolimbic-cortical system, which is intimately related to rewarding perception. The questions are, this difference is the result of the inbreeding after several generations? is consequence of chronic alcohol exposure? or this molecular difference is an intrinsic characteristic of organisms with high liking for alcohol? Recent studies in our laboratory suggest that differences in MOR density may depend on high vs. low liking for alcohol in wild type rats, and that chronic alcohol consumption also produces adaptive changes in MOR expression. Therefore, evidence supports adaptive changes as a result chronic alcohol consumption as well as intrinsic characteristics related to proclivity for high alcohol consumption.
The findings from the study and the clinic use of opioid antagonists have an additional support of the participation of the opioid system in the rewarding effects of alcohol; therefore, several pharmacological strategies have been used as therapy in alcoholic patients. There is no doubt concerning the important role of the opioid system in the rewarding effects of alcohol; however, is evident that other neurotransmission systems are involved in this phenomenon; therefore, it is necessary to make a comprehensive analysis of the neurophysiological and molecular mechanisms underlaying to alcohol abuse as an addictive behaviour.

Margie Lachman on the legacy of psychologist Abraham Maslow
A view on healthy development
By Margie E. Lachman
This year marks the centenary of the great American psychologist Abraham Maslow. From where I sit—occupying the same office he did as chair of the Brandeis University psychology department until 1969—I marvel at how he helped shape current thinking about human development.
In the hundred years since his birth on April 1, 1908, psychology has grown from a young science focusing on instincts and early childhood development to a holistic approach that celebrates lifelong development and potential—just as the aging population is exploding with the first of the large baby-boomer cohort entering their sixties and expecting to live another twenty to forty years.
A founder of the third force in psychology, Maslow developed his ideas in the fifties and sixties at Brandeis in reaction to what is called "the first force," the Freudian psychoanalytic approach, and the "second force," the behavioral approach championed by B. F. Skinner. Maslow's third force brought a humanistic approach to psychological development that emphasized the great human potential and possibilities for doing good things in the world.
At the height of his career in the revolutionary and rebellious 1960s, Maslow held ideas that were brave and bold, even radical. He is best known for his writings on the hierarchy of needs (basic survival needs must be satisfied before the higher-order growth needs) and the self-actualizing person (highly creative, self-accepting, and fulfilled), but his body of work was much more extensive.
Four main themes capture and contrast his views to earlier theories, and they link to current psychological work and broader issues for healthy living in today's world. First, he believed that human beings are inherently good and well intentioned rather than evil or mean-spirited. Second, he asserted that people act based on their motivations and needs, rather than in response to uncontrollable, unconscious urges, or externally determined factors. Third, he believed in individuals' potential to grow and develop throughout life rather than in the Freudian idea of personality being formed and fixed by adolescence. Finally, and perhaps most important, he focused on the healthy as a way of understanding behavior and optimizing well-being rather than studying the neurotic or ill—a significant departure from much of the conventional psychological thinking of the time.
Today, Maslow's teachings are more relevant than ever. Our burgeoning interest in exploring what makes people happy, optimistic, and healthy, for example, can be traced to Maslow's ideas, which are being subjected to scientific scrutiny and empirical testing within the new positive psychology movement.
By challenging the ideas of his towering predecessors, Maslow championed the value of focusing on what's right with the person rather than what's wrong, paving the way for science to explore how to enhance and enrich psychological and physical functioning. Decades before the psychological mainstream caught on, he understood the key role psychological resilience plays in promoting overall health.
In less than fifty years, for the first time in human history, one quarter of the world's population will be at least sixty-five years old. There is growing recognition in fields like medicine and psychology that by focusing on the healthy, we can learn a lot about disease before it develops. For example, we have begun to research cognitive functioning during midlife, a period when most of us are healthy but the seeds of decline and disease may be germinating. This work will allow us to identify risk and protective factors that explain why some people remain cognitively healthy well into old age and others develop problems such as dementia. We are also learning there is much we can do to optimize memory, reasoning, and decision making, and to slow the aging process, for those suffering steep declines and even for those who are doing quite well.
On the centennial of his birth, I gaze out my office window with Maslow's visionary legacy in mind. This year, as the oldest baby boomers turn sixty-two, the age at which Maslow's life was cut short, many can expect to make it to one hundred. As we age over the next forty years, we would do well to follow Maslow's wisdom about healthy development, making the most of our potential and finding meaning in our lives, especially by nurturing social connections. This could help to make our lives not only longer, but also richer.

Nova Scotia's New Electricity Plan: 3 Key Themes
By James MacDuff, Partner at McInnes Cooper,
Sara Mahaney, Former Lawyer at McInnes Cooper
On November 9, 2015, the Province of Nova Scotia released its Electricity Plan for 2015-2040, titled Our Electricity Future: Nova Scotia's Electricity Plan. Here's a snapshot of the three key themes and changes that NS electricity producers, consumers – and start-ups – can expect in the short and the long term.
1. An Innovation Focus in Electricity Use & Production
In the short term (to the end of 2019), the Plan creates some new opportunities for smaller-scale pilots and community programs, including:
Net-Metering Regime. Small-scale pilot projects (20kW or less) will be permitted to allow homeowners, businesses and institutions to sell surplus power from renewable sources to Nova Scotia Power Inc. (NSPI).
Community Buildings Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Pilot Program. This Program will promote the installation of solar panels on community buildings such as town halls, fire halls and community centres. Projects will be approved on a competitive basis. The Program will be subject to clear caps and limits, so those interested in getting involved with it should do so at the front-end.
Electricity Innovation Pilot Program. The Province will provide funding on a competitive basis to research projects and innovative technologies aimed at better managing the use and production of electricity, such as storing electricity from intermittent renewable sources.
2. A Changing Landscape for Nova Scotia's Electricity Regulation
Also in the short term, the Plan heralds changes to Nova Scotia's electricity regulatory regime, including:
Performance-Based Regulation. The Province intends to pass legislation to allow the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board to establish and begin holding NSPI accountable to performance standards regarding power reliability, storm response and customer service. The details of this regulatory regime will be the subject of a future proceeding before the Utility and Review Board, expected in 2016.
Rate Stability & Predictability Measures. NSPI will be subject to a 3-year general rate freeze (to take effect after April 30, 2016 following any application by NSPI to the Utility and Review Board for a general rate increase for that period) and NSPI will be required to develop a fuel stability plan to make the cost of electricity more predictable to the end of 2019.
3. More Competition in Nova Scotia's Electricity Marketplace
In the longer term, no new large-scale power generation is expected to be required in Nova Scotia before 2030. However, any future large-scale generation will be open and subject to a full and fair competitive process as opposed to the guaranteed Feed-In-Tariff rates that have recently been available. As well, a limited market opening through the Renewable-To-Retail program in early 2016 will allow independent power producers to sell renewable electricity directly to consumers. The details of this program are currently being reviewed as part of a proceeding before the Utility and Review Board, with a hearing scheduled for January 18, 2016.

Dr Gemma Cupples PhD MSci
In 'People'
Back to 'School of Mathematics'
g.cupples@bham.ac.uk
After completing an MSci. and Ph.D. in Mathematics at the University of Birmingham, Gemma took up a role as Research Fellow in Mathematical Biology, in collaboration with Birmingham Women's Hospital, in January 2018. The research is focussed around the generation of new algorithms for the automatic detection and analysis of sperm flagellum, including experimental work obtaining images of sperm propulsion.
PhD in Applied Mathematics, University of Birmingham 2018
MSci in Mathematics, University of Birmingham 2014
Gemma graduated with an MSci in Mathematics from the University of Birmingham in 2010 and remained at Birmingham to complete her PhD entitled 'Fibre-laden flows in biology and biotechnology', a project partly funded by Linear Diagnostics Ltd. During her PhD, Gemma was a finalist in the Three Minute Thesis Competition and a member of the Equality and Diversity Committee in the School of Mathematics. Upon submission of her thesis, Gemma began her postdoc with Professor Dave Smith focussing on sperm motility in January 2018, working alongside the Centre for Human Reproductive Science at Birmingham Women's Hospital (Science Lead Dr Jackson Kirkman-Brown).
Gemma's research interests include propulsion and peristaltic motion in non-Newtonian fluids and the flow-induced alignment of particle suspensions used to detect pathogens in fluid samples. These interests have inspired international collaboration with researches working in Adelaide and Auckland.
Gemma has many research interests in the area of non-Newtonian fluid mechanics.
Particle suspensions
Gemma worked jointly with Linear Diagnostics Ltd to maximise the signal to noise ratio for flows of particle suspensions in thin rectangular channels. This involved a combination of experimental work and analytical and numerical solution to the coupled non-Newtonian flow equations and a Fokker-Planck equation governing fibre distribution.
Microscopic propulsion
Alongside Dave Smith and Rosemary Dyson, Gemma developed analytical solutions adapting Taylor's classical swimming sheet model to account for an active aligned suspension of elongated particles. These suspensions relate to the fibrous cervical mucus of many internally fertilising species; the efficiency of sperm propulsion through cervical mucus is an important factor in fertilisation. They deduced that propulsion in this media was drastically different from Newtonian fluids, with certain particle configurations providing an easier pathway for propulsion. This lead to Gemma's current research project investigating the automation of tracking sperm flagella.
Connections between active and transversely-isotropic media
Alongside Craig Holloway, Rosemary Dyson and Dave Smith at the University of Birmingham, Ed Green at the University of Adelaide and Richard Clarke at the University of Auckland, Gemma investigated links between active suspensions of elongated particles and Ericksen's transversely-isotropic model, describing fluids with a preferred direction.

Cajus Schmiedtlein (ca. 1555–1611) was a German Renaissance composer and organist and is best known for his time as the organist at St. Mary's Church, Gdańsk. His name appears in different spelling variants in the Low German dialect (Caj Schmedeke, Key Schmedeke, Schmedecke, Smedeke, Schmedcke, Schmiedeke) and in Standard High German (Cajus Schmiedlein, Caius Schmitlein, Schmidtlein, Schmittlein).

Biography

Schmiedtlein is assumed to have been born around 1555 in the Dithmarschen district of Northern Germany. For an unspecified period he was active as organist in Husum until 1578, when he became organist at Saint Olaf's Church, Helsingør. But just a year later had to resign from this post following a controversy over his own initiative to create a pedal division and thus modifying the organ without the church authority's approval. It is unclear what Schmiedtlein did following his resignation in Helsingør, but it is believed he went to Hamburg.

In 1585 Schmiedtlein became the organist at St. Mary's Church, Gdańsk.

He married in 1591 and was awarded the citizenship of the city of Gdańsk.
On 2 August 1596 he was one of 54 invited organists to play at the inauguration of the new organ at the castle in Gröningen, near Halberstadt, for which he had to travel 650 km each way.

He died in Gdańsk in 1611 and was buried on 17 March 1611 under stone 111 inside St. Mary's Church.

Organist at St. Mary's Church, Gdańsk

Cajus Schmiedtlein was one of the performers during the inaugural concerts (which, according to a city source, caused a sensation in almost all of Europe) on the newly finished organ (56 stops, 3 manuals + pedal keyboard) at St. Mary's Church on 18 and 19 October 1585. The event is said to have been a social gathering during which people drank wine and played dice while Schmiedtlein performed. The church authorities liked Schmiedtlein's playing and offered him the post of organist. Schmiedtlein demanded 200 Talers annually as salary and on top of that free lodgings, free firing wood and a notary position on the city council (his predecessor was paid 140 Talers and received free lodgings). It is unknown which terms were agreed to in the end, but Schmiedtlein accepted the post as organist.

He appears to have left the post for an extended period of time before being re-appointed for life by the city council in 1589. He was absent again for some time in 1590 and for six weeks in 1591 while sorting out his personal financial affairs in Hamburg. During an absence in 1594 a complaint was received about the inadequate stand-in organist Schmiedtlein arranged to deputize for him. In 1596 he traveled to Gröningen to play at the inauguration of the organ at the castle, while in 1598 he was granted extended leave to go the spa town of Baden to cure an ailment.

In 1611 the church authorities assigned the young Paul Siefert as his assistant. Shortly prior to his death, Schmiedtlein wrote a letter to the city council in which he bitterly complained about Siefert's musical skills as well as his personality. In the same letter he also refuted accusations that under his stewardship of the organ the instrument fell into a state of bad repair.

Musical works
While no known or confirmed works by Schmiedtlein exist, a collection of 42 compositions in a manuscript in Gdańsk have been attributed as being likely of his authorship.
The collection, known as the Gdańsk Tablature of 1591 (Polish: Tabulatura gdańska; German: Danziger Tabulatur), is part of manuscript "Ms. 300 R/Vv, 123" State Archive in Gdańsk which contains various documents pertaining to the time period between 1571 and 1627. The compositions attributed to Schmiedtlein include 17 Phantasias, one prelude and 24 keyboard arrangements of sacred and secular songs.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is funding research in California and Illinois hospitals and nursing homes that it hopes will help stop or at least considerably reduce drug-resistant infections, according to an NPR report.
The approach these organizations are taking primarily centers around doctors and healthcare workers washing patients with antimicrobial chlorhexidine soap. CDC provided funding to 50 facilities in the two states, more specifically in Chicago and Orange County, Calif., for the efforts.
NPR reports that in Chicago, researchers are working with nursing home and long-term acute care hospital staff to screen patients for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) upon admission and then bath them daily with the soap. Efforts also include a handwashing campaign and increased communication concerning CRE among hospitals.
Researchers working in Orange County are collaborating with hospital and nursing home staff to use an antiseptic wash, together with an iodine-based nose swab. The expectation is that these efforts will "prevent new people from getting drug-resistant bacteria and keep the ones who already have the bacteria on their skin or elsewhere from developing infections," according to the report.
Preliminary data from the Orange County project (which concludes in May) show that after 18 months, there was a 25% drop in drug-resistant organisms in nursing home residents, 34% percent in long-term acute care hospital patient and a 9% decline in traditional hospital patients. Results from the Chicago project are pending, with the project ending in September.

CrazyKinux's Musing: The Few, the Proud, the EVE Blog Pack Members!
It is a privilege to be part of your great initiative my friend.
Welcome aboard! Now if only Apple would get their act together and approve Capsuleer, we'd be set!
The #1 criteria for Eve Blog Pack eligibility should not simply be to blog regularly, but to blog regularly ABOUT EVE or about gaming topics that reference EVE or compare it to other MMOs. Not that blogs which give equal time to other games aren't interesting, but it IS the "EVE" Blog Pack, after all.
Re the various networking services, I've joined Digg and will evaluate the rest on a case by case basis to decide whether I wish to have accounts with them.
I'm glad you are actively managing the Pack to remove inactive bloggers and replace them with others. I hope that Shae Tiann's Sweet Little Bad Girl is getting closer to the top of the candidates list.
@Mynxee - Thank the Amarr Empress you're there as my copywriter with your eagle eyes! I've added the important nuance to No.1!
As for Shae she getting near the top for sure!!
Outstanding! I'll be debating making a move to a dedicated server in order to get complete utility from these new tools (and some nifty Wordpress Plugins), so if my site gets podded for a day or two bear with me!
@Xiphos - Looking forward to seeing the new and improved blog!
YOu mention using: Delicious, BlinkList, Reddit, StumbleUpon and/or Technorati accounts.
Delicious, BlinkList, Reddit and Digg are basically all social bookmarks that you use to keep track of articles and sites and share those with friends and the rest of the world.
Technorati is a site I use to keep track of blogs I read. You add them to your Favorites.
Basically, use any of these sites to bookmark articles and blogs you like. Doing this promotes these blogs and increase the chance of other gamers to find them.
I was hoping to get on your list, and maybe in the pack if room opens up.
My blog is still new but I'll be updating everyday and my posts will be about EVE.
@PsycheDiver - For now, the Pack is maxed out at 30 members. Not to say that it won't expand beyond that or that new openings won't become available, but for now, I'll be adding you to the EVE Player Blogroll.
Keep blogging and writing that EVE fiction, and who knows, maybe you'll find yourself on the Blog Pack!
Was hoping to get added to the Blog Pak myself. Been an avid reader for quite some time, and I have some good contributions to the community as a 0.0 alliance member and low sec pirate.
I started Lost In Space (http://nooblostinspace.wordpress.com) about a year ago, not long after I started reading the Eve Blog Pack. It's an "Eve only" blog that I've hesitated to try to get in the Pack due to my initial irregularity (posting, not digestive).
However, having gotten some Eve experience under my belt, a bit of perspective, and a "fire in the belly" for writing again, I thought I'd humbly submit it for your consideration.
If you're looking for new blogs try this: no meta-gaming, no 0.0 politics, just small gang PvP in Low-sec and a bit about the How-to. Post frequency seems to fit your requirements.

Mr. Silverman holds a J.D. in law and Ph.D. in counseling psychology, a master's degree in behavioral sciences and epidemiology, a master's in guidance and counseling, and a bachelor's in psychology; and worked as a child and adolescent clinical psychologist and as a Family Court therapist for 15 years before pursuing his law career. Mr. Silverman is experienced in coping with high-conflict custody matters, deliberate or inadvertent parental estrangement or interference, psychological disorders, and substance abuse issues.
Attorneys Alan R. Silverman and Claudia Bravo Silverman obtained mediation and dispute-resolution education at the renowned Pepperdine University School of Law, Strauss Institute for Dispute Resolution, in Malibu, CA, and studied advanced collaborative law. Mr. Silverman serves as a settlement master and is on the special-master panel of the Unified Family Court Court of the Superior Court of San Francisco County. And he serves as a settlement attorney for the Superior Court of San Diego County. Our use of mediation and collaborative methods grew from listening to our clients and developing workable solutions to their problems-valuable resources and skills that ease the anxiety associated with litigation and the dissolution of a marriage or a partnership and the issues that must be resolved and continuing our education in Family Court law as it develops and changes.

This is one of the rarest Natas decks out there, as very few were even made. The graphic has a classic 80s Bowie style that Natas was not thrilled with… So they pulled the graphic. They made a handful in white, blue, and a few in black dip. Obviously this one is used and someone tried to paint a few of the markings white but it has a classic 80s skated look, and would be great hanging on the wall or maybe even someone could resto this. Just to be very clear, some of the white paint has been touched up. The item "SMA Natas Kaupas Face Used Condition" is in sale since Thursday, March 14, 2019.

Gas prices back on the rise
July 13, 2013 By Radio Iowa Contributor
The average price of regular unleaded gas in Iowa stands at $3.48/gallon
Iowans who are hitting the road this weekend will notice gas prices are on the rise again. Gail Weinholzer, with AAA Iowa, says the political crisis in Egypt is primarily to blame. "We have seen a gradual increase but I do expect it to plateau in the area of the numbers we're seeing right now," Weinholzer says.
On Friday, the average price of regular unleaded gas in Iowa stood at $3.48 a gallon. "Iowa is still below the national average, which is $3.55. So, we have seen slight increases, but certainly nothing as dramatic as we saw prior to Memorial Day," Weinholzer says. Just before Memorial Day, prices at the pump hovered near $4.00 a gallon as two refineries in the Chicago area were shut down for maintenance.
Weinholzer describes the current gasoline supply in the U.S. as "a little light." On Wednesday, the government reported the supply dipped by about 9-million barrels compared to the previous week. "That ebbs and flows throughout the summer, depending upon demand, so there's nothing there to be greatly concerned about," Weinholzer said. "We expect prices to gradually increase a bit, but nothing significant."
Iowa's highest-ever gas prices occurred five years ago this month. According to AAA, the average price for regular unleaded in Iowa spiked at $4.02 a gallon in mid-July of 2008.

'I've just kept going': Meet 82-year-old Russ Mantle, the one million mile man
'I had a car for 37 years, it finished up with only 18,500 miles on the clock, and I was doing more than 18,500 in one year on my bicycle'
Russ Mantle (Roo Fowler)
By Owen Rogers
A long line of cyclists rolls gently along the muddy Basingstoke Canal path. The oldest is at the front, his white and blue Holdsworth showing its age, its rider wearing a blue jacket, his ironed trousers tucked into bicycle clips.
Constantly pointing out hazards and giving advice to anyone close enough to hear, there is one like him in every club in every town. But there's no one quite like Russ Mantle.
As we near a cafe about five miles into the ride from his Aldershot home he stops, and announces he's just ridden his one millionth mile.
One million. That's 1,609,344km. Or 14,700 miles a year for 68 years. Cycling UK has organised a reception and applause echoes through the trees as he breaks a ribbon before facing the gathered press. Even France TV have come from their London bureau. For a while 82-year-old Mantle is lost in the throng.
"I was absolutely overwhelmed," he tells us later. "It's just another milestone, I've just kept going. I never really stopped cycling at all since I first had a bike in 1951 and I've gone on from there.
"My lowest ever mileage has been eight and a half thousand miles, but I shall only reach about 8,000 this year, but my best was 22,550 in '01."
Our gentle ride was a far cry from Mantle's early years in the saddle. He began writing down every mile ridden after his father bought him his first bike, and within three years he was racing. He took the Farnham RC 10-mile record in 1956 with a 22.19, breaking his own 25-mile standard in 1961 with 57.11. Both records stood until 1987.
"I've beaten 13 club records, though many times it was my own club record," he tells us, reeling off detail as though reading a list. "When I was 18 I came sixth in the National 25 Championship up in Bedfordshire, with a 58.35 on a 79 inch gear. It was quite a windy day too, I was inside 27 [minutes] going out and it was 31 to 32 going back."
He would compete nationwide, mostly 25-mile TTs but also 30s, 50s and some 10s, even winning the Army 100km road race in Germany during his national service, but inevitably his racing legs eventually gave up.
"I lost my speed," he laments. "I raced from 1953 up until 1967 and I decided to give it up for a while, then came back in 1971. My last three races I won, and then I packed it in in 1975. Then my mileage increased; as I got older I did more miles."
Hard rider
For much of his life Mantle would lead the West Surrey CTC Hard Riders' weekly outings, ride long solo efforts, and go on regular tours. The bike was also his main transport.
"I had a car for 37 years, it finished up with only 18,500 miles on the clock, and I was doing more than 18,500 in one year on my bicycle," he says.
"Mind you, I was a professional cyclist then, because the DoE [Department of the Environment] paid me for riding round my patch supervising building work, and of course I would ride the long way round - typical cyclist!
"My longest ride was from Aldershot to Monmouthshire and back via Cirencester, 265 miles. I started off in the dark at 3am, I got back at quarter to 10 just when it was getting dark. I've also done Aldershot to Weston-super-Mare and back again; that was 255 miles.
"All my tours to all of the countries I have been to I have gone up the highest roads in that country and I park my bike at the highest passes and go walking for the rest of the day.
"I had a week in Colorado and I did all 10 of the highest passes and a road that goes up to Mount Evans at 14,127 feet [4,305m], that's the highest I've cycled, then it's just a short walk up to the peak."
However, crashes have meant it's not all been plain sailing. "A couple of them have been my fault, but I've been knocked over by motorists quite often. Broken ribs, which punctured my lung, which collapsed; a lorry knocked me into a wall which smashed my arm up and I was unconscious in Southampton hospital for three days."
Despite this he has never been off the bike more than 10 weeks, even returning to the saddle within days of being released from hospital after collapsing on a ride in Wales and being treated "for my heart, arteries, cholesterol and something else".
The millionth mile
There are two Rotrax bikes in Mantle's garage, but it was one of three Holdsworths he picked for his millionth mile. With its 1982 frame, the bike bears the scars of many miles.
"My down tube got broken, so I filed down a seatpin, pushed it right down the tube then I clamped some aluminium tube round the outside with epoxy resin glue. That same frame has been up all the highest hills in the whole of Europe, the whole of the British Isles and America," he says with some pride.
Age though means he's had to gear down over the years. "All of my bikes have got a bottom gear of 20.5 inches which is still not low enough," he explains, launching into another of his stories.
"I did all five of the highest hills in the Lake District in one ride of 112 miles. Then I only had a bottom gear of just under 40 [inches], but I managed. As I got to the top of the Hardknott Pass I was zigzagging and a car appeared at the summit and we actually passed each other on the wrong side of the road! It was all very safe. I was only just getting the pedals over!"
With the million-mile celebration cake eaten, Champagne drunk and journalists gone, Mantle got back on his bike and rode home again. Though he later admitted he needed a push up the hill to his house. He adds: "I won't stop, I will probably ride into my grave."

The purpose of this quasi-experimental research was to study the effect of an English camping program based on Cognitive Behavioral Theory on students' self-efficacy in using the language for communication. The population of the study, 118 first-year students of the faculty . of Liberal Arts, Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon in the academic year 2009, were divided by using simple random sampling into 3 groups: experimental· group 1 whose members were assigned to participate in the English camping program based on Cognitive Behavioral Theory; experimental group 2 of which the members were given the infonnation on Cognitive Behavioral Theory and how to develop self-efficacy in using English for communication to read ; and the control group. The instruments used were a questionnaire, a self-assessment questionnaire on self-efficacy developed by the researchers ,and Before & After reviews, The statistics used were percentage and t-test. The results were as follows: 1. The level of self-efficacy in using English for communication after the group's participation in the English camping program based on Cognitive Behavioral Theory was significantly higher at the level of 0.05 which was not significantly different at the follow -up. 2. The self-efficacy level after participation in the English camping program was significantly higher at the level of 0.05 than that of the experimental group 2 after being assigned to read. 3. The level of self-efficacy after participation in the program was statistically higher than that of the control group at the level of 0.05. 4. The qualitative data collected from the group participating in the program indicated an improvement in the level of self-efficacy in using English for communication.
