Civil, Environmental, and Geo- Engineering
A continuous-flow column study was conducted to analyze the reductive dehalogenation of trichloroethene (TCE) with aquifer material with high content of iron oxides. The column was bioaugmented with the Point Mugu (PM) culture, which is a mixed microbial enrichment culture capable of completely transforming TCE to ethene (ETH). We determined whether lactate, formate, or propionate fermentation resulted in more effective dehalogenation. Reductive dehalogenation, fermentation, and sulfate, Fe(III), and Mn(IV) reduction were all exhibited within the column. Different steady-states of dehalogenation were achieved based on the concentration of substrates added, with effective transformation to ETH obtained when ample electron donor equivalents were provided. Most of the metabolic reducing equivalents were channeled to sulfate, Fe(III), and Mn(IV) reduction. When similar electron reducing equivalents were added, the most effective dehalogenation was achieved with formate, with 14% of the electron equivalents going towards dehalogenation reactions, compared to 6.5% for lactate and 9.6% for propionate. Effective dehalogenation was maintained over 1000 days of column operation. Over 90% of electron equivalents added could be accounted for by the different electron accepting processes in the column, with 50% associated with soluble and precipitated Fe(II) and Mn(II). Bulk Fe(III) and Mn(IV) reduction was rather associated with lactate and propionate addition than formate addition. Sulfate reduction was a competing electron acceptor reaction with all three electron donors. DNA was extracted from solid coupon samples obtained during the course of the experiment and analyzed using 16S rRNA gene clone libraries and quantitative PCR. Lactate and propionate addition resulted in a significant increase in Geobacter, Spirochaetes, and Desulfitobacterium phylotypes relative to "Dehalococcoides" when compared to formate addition. Results from the molecular biological analyses support chemical observations that a greater percentage of the electron donor addition was channeled to Fe(III) reduction when lactate and propionate were added compared to formate, and formate was more effective than lactate in supporting dehalogenation. The results demonstrate the importance of electron donor selection and competing electron acceptor reactions when implementing reductive dehalogenation remediation technologies.

What is Geospatial Technology?
Mobile Thermal Cameras
February 26, 2015 /in Uncategorized /by admin
Just like all things technology, Thermal Imagery is advancing rapidly. In the past year alone there have been some considerable breakthroughs with thermal cameras. As most electronics advance, shrink, become faster and more affordable, so has the thermal camera. Last year in 2014 FLIR discretely unveiled its concept and prototype for a mobile phone mounted miniature thermal camera, the FLIR One.
The world was excited by this news but we all know that when something like this occurs it's quickly followed by competition. Late last year a new mobile mounted thermal camera was announced called the SEEK Thermal. There are other devices under development but at this stage we have decided to review and compare the FLIR One and SEEK Thermal as they are the only publicly available mobile thermal cameras on the market.
FLIR One
After the buzz that came about the revelation of perhaps the world's first mobile mounted thermal sensor FLIR released the FLIR One consumer model in 2014. It comes in the form of a two step iPhone 5 or 5s case. The first case is much like a standard hard case (with a FLIR logo) and the second stage a clip on unit that contains the camera sensors and extended power supply for the camera. This duel case system makes it a little clumsy and bulky but you have the choice of only attaching the Thermal Lens unit when required, although this requires you to carry it around with you everywhere, separately.
When operating the thermal camera, the image is visible directly on the iPhone screen. You will need to download the FLIR One app from the Apple app store in order to use it of course.
The app is a breeze to use and is very similar and in-line with other FLIR software. There are all the basic settings such as colour pallet, emissivity settings and basic analysis tools including a lens calibration tool. You can also take thermal imagery in a number of different ways. Still image, time-lapse and video. Although the video will contains no radiometric information.
The FLIR One. iPhone 5 / 5s thermal camera case attachment.
Below are some technical specifications of the FLIR One
Scene range temperature: 32 °F to 212 °F (O °C to 100 °C)
Operating temp: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
Weight: 3.9oz, 110grams
Dimensions: L 5.5 inches (140 mm) x W 2.4 inches (61 mm) x H .85 inches (22 mm)
Battery capacity: 1400 mA/h (maximum thermal imager battery life is approximately four hours continuous use. FLIR ONE does not consume power from the iPhone battery, nor does it charge the iPhone battery)
Core: FLIR Lepton thermal camera core
Visible camera: VGA (used for FLIR® MSX® blending)
Sensitivity: ability to detect temperature differences as small as 0.18 °F (0.1°C)
Charging method: micro USB and 1A wall charger (charges FLIR ONE but not the iPhone)
iPhone compatibility: iPhone5, iPhone5S running iOS 7 or above
The FLIR ONE app is available for download from the Apple App Store.
Included accessories: USB charging cable, iPhone case, and jack audio adapter.
Certifications and standards: FCC, CE, RoHS, CAN ICES-3 (B)/NMB-3(B), UL
For a first to market tech product the FLIR One preforms very well. Although as one may guess it has a lot of space for improvement. Many of these improvements have already been made. FLIR has announced that it will be releasing the second generation FLIR One sometime in mid to late 2015.
The new 2015 FLIR One thermal camera dongle.
Some of the improvements are:
More powerful thermal sensor able to capture thermal images four times the resolution of the old FLIR One Leptom sensor.
Compact attachable unit that supports Lighting jack and MicroUSB connections. This makes it compatible with a wide range of phones including android smartphones.
Pricing to be lower than original release price. Also the original FLIR One will have its price lowered.
The Seek Thermal was released into the consumer market at the end of Q3 2014 and was met with positive reviews. It was one of the first competitors to the FLIR One and brought with it some enhancements that are worth serious consideration when deciding to purchase a mobile thermal device.
The Seek Thermal mobile dongle.
The first thing one notices is the different form factor of the two cameras. The Seek Thermal has been released as a dongle little larger than the average human adult thumb, where as the FLIR One is a bulky two stage extension iPhone case.
Another positive for the Seek Thermal is the thermal sensor, which is called the "True Thermal Sensor," it's in fact a vanadium oxide microbolometer which is capable of detecting long-wave infra-red between 7.2 and 13 microns. This gives you a thermal sensor with a total of 32,136 "Thermal Pixels" spread across a 206-by-156 pixel array. This is a far larger sensor than that of the Lepton sensor in the FLIR One which is a mere 80 x 60 thermal pixels. This means that the overall thermal image is more prises as there are more points of measurement.
Although the thermal image is higher in accuracy and sharper than the FLIR One images, the FLIR One attempts to step around this with FLIR's MSX feature. MSX artificially enhances the thermal image by combining the thermal image with a higher resolution digital image to output a clearer and easier to interpret thermal image, albeit not as accurate.
One last thing that may put the SEEK Thermal a little further ahead of the FLIR One (first generation 2014) is the price tag at almost half the price.
The new and improved Seek Thermal XR seen paired with both iPhone and Android Phone
Much like the FLIR One, SEEK Thermal is soon releasing its own new and improved version with the SEEK Thermal XR. The new model will showcase a manual focus lens as well as the ability to optically zoom in on your targets, something even some high end thermal cameras lack.
Something tells me that this is just the beginning, competition is always good for advancement.

The FLIR ONE
January 24, 2014 /in Uncategorized /by admin
As many of you may have read on our Blog a few months ago, FLIR showcased a new gadget – a FLIR thermal camera sensor and lens built into a custom iPhone case, thus creating something that had not been seen before: a mobile phone capable of capturing and editing actual thermal imagery.
FLIR iPhone Thermal Camera Prototype
Unlike many prototypes that made it no further than the concept stage, FLIR has pushed their prototype Thermal Camera iPhone case into consumer production. The FLIR One, as it's called, is now available for purchase for less than $350 USD. Some may think that $350 is a lot to pay for an iPhone case with another camera on it, but compared with it's closest living relative, the FLIR E4, which is priced at around $1600 AUD, it's a no-brainer.
The new FLIR One iPhone case, sporting a very sleek design, thermal camera and sensor and a built in battery. Very nice!
With the FLIR One, small business owners and enthusiast now have a way to see what's hot and what's not without breaking the bank. But remember, for all the big boys, FLIR has a large range of hand held and fixed thermal cameras that are sure fit your needs.
For more information on the professional thermal imaging solutions Scantherma offers from FLIR please visit our Thermal Camera website here, or drop in to our Perth office for a free consultation.

FLIR's prototype iPhone Thermal Camera attachment
September 4, 2013 /in Uncategorized /by admin
Almost every one has a smart phone these days and among the most popular is the apple iPhone.
The iPhone is a sleek robust user friendly device that allows you to play games, surf the net, take photos and make the occasional phone call. Now it can do one more thing.
With the Help of FLIR you can now use your iPhone to take Infrared Images. The FLIR prototype iPhone attachment allows the user to look at the world around them in the infrared spectrum and take thermal images of practically anything they can point at.
FLIR iPhone Thermal Camera
At the heart of the unit sits FLIR's new Quark core which is small enough at three quarters of an inch to enable the capture of images at .3 megapixels or 640 x 480 pixels. A 13 mm lens mounted on the back just above the iPhone's own camera allows the user to capture detail from more 100 meters away. The unit also comes with it's own battery supply so it won't put an extra burden on the iPhone's power.
Although this is a commercial prototype it has caught the eye of the military who want it implemented onto troop gear such as guns and helmets. But for this prototype to become commercially viable it will ultimately have to drop a few pounds. The image quality and resolution, and the thermal sensitivity will suffer here in order to make the devices cheap enough to build thus making them affordable for the target market.
FLIR's iPhone Thermal Camera attachment will be available in the very near future.

Pixel 5 rises from the dead after withstanding torturous teardown video trials
1000° heat is mere child's play for the Pixel 5
9:16am PST Dec 4, 2020
11:52am PST on Dec 2, 2020 and last updated 2020/12/04
9:16am PST on Dec 4, 2020 .
Google may have gone wild with bio-resin on the Pixel 5, but does that make it any less sturdy? JerryRigEverything's newest teardown videos put Google's latest flagship up against formidable foes like a cup of acetone and a powerful heat gun — and although the phone does die by the end of the first video, it makes a surprising comeback in the second.
One of the main takeaways from the first video is just how much plastic Google managed to pack onto the frame of the Pixel 5. When a 'V' is cut into the body of the phone, Zack notes that the "whole curve of the phone is plastic, all the way down to the screen." While Google acknowledges that the phone is made with a bio-resin concoction, it is a little surprising to see just how much more plastic there is than actual metal.
Despite the phone dying early due to the battery being impacted while searching for the wireless charging coil, the end results reveal a phone that's sturdy enough to weather some storms. Scraping the plastic off takes so long that Zach resorts to trying to dissolve it in a cup of acetone and then attempting to melt it off with a heat gun. After a bit of recovery time, however, the battery is able to start the device back up, and Zach continues torturing the phone with a further teardown.
I won't completely spoil the ending for you, but if you want to watch for yourself, check out the videos embedded above. And if not, just know that the Pixel 5 may be mostly plastic, but that coating goes a long way in providing protection against bends and scrapes — and it looks to have a screen that's super easy to replace just in case.

Alt-Tech, The Alt-Right and Your Alternatives to Apple-Google Duopoly
Psycho Woman asking for Silence with Finger on Lips
Date: September 7, 2017Author: Tom Luongo 0 Comments
Arguments against switching your social media usage from Twitter to Gab are a flaccid mix of the sunk cost fallacy and justifying inertia.
Lamenting the loss of integrity of social media is a waste of time.
The other night on Halsey Live I was sparring with my colleague, Stefanie MacWilliams, over the value of Gab, the now-controversial alternative to Twitter. She made two points, both of which highlighted why I feel we are losing our way in the Culture War against creeping cultural Marxism.
The first point she made was the danger over splitting the social media sphere into 'right-wing' (Gab) and 'left-wing' (Twitter) social media. Each would become their own echo chambers. Stef's frustration over Gab and its early adherents stemmed from some of them calling her out for not being ideologically pure enough.
And, fair enough, it sucks to be attacked from what you feel is 'your tribe.' But, those same Right Wing SJWs as Stef appropriately terms them, should not define what a social media platform is or what it's purpose is.
Speaking Freely is Dangerous
And it was Stef's feeling that Gab hadn't done enough to distance themselves from the Andrew Anglins and the Richard Spensers of the world to attract a wide-enough audience making it worth her time.
But, that's not Gab's responsibility. And by making that argument she is actually making Twitter's argument for shadow-banning, censoring and cancelling the accounts of those its leadership disagrees with.
You can't make the world safe. All you can do is limit how you interact with it. In any event, only those across the political spectrum craving a better platform will migrate to Gab anyway and 1) they will drown out the morons and 2) will engage in thoughtful debate in the first place.
It sucks that we have to defend and share space with the Andrew Anglin's of the world, but that's the price we pay for the kind of freedom of association and expression we advocate.
Gab's CEO Andrew Torba has made it clear that all are welcome all the time. But, Gab is only going to police that content that is illegal, something Twitter and YouTube do not do.
Make posts calling to kill someone on Gab they will take the post down and report you to the police.
Be a Salafist Head-Chopper on Twitter, continue to enjoy freedom of speech you don't have in your own country, ie. Saudi Arabia.
There's No Avoiding Twitter Jail
The hypocrisy is blatant. And it should be infuriating to anyone who values intellectual and emotional honesty. And toughing it out on a platform that is actively looking to keep you from finding your maximum audience as a content producer is not only insane it is counter-productive.
Because the minute you are a big enough voice to have a real effect on the conversation they can and WILL take that away from you in a heartbeat.
And then what do you have? Nothing.
This is the 'Sunk Cost' economic fallacy of throwing more time and capital at a project that is failing simply because you've sunk previous time and capital into it.
A good analogy is continuing boarding up your house in the face of a hurricane strong enough to rip it up from the foundation. Another sheet of 3/4″ plywood is not going to stop the walls from caving in to 185 MPH winds.
In fact, it will help the process.
Another is the War on Terror, but I digress.
So, it's imperative that as a conservative/libertarian/contrarian you build a social media presence that is multi-faceted. Use Twitter but don't rely on it. Use YouTube, but expect to be banned.
Limit your time on them and divert some time to other platforms, building a reputation and a following there. Download and cross-post your videos on other platforms.
As a leader, and Stef is now a leader with nearly 11,000 followers, encourage them to move to Gab. Only 5% will do so.
After that, only a handful of those will actually begin using the platform. But, 20-50 active followers on Gab is a big audience. And relatively-speaking, it's all she really has at the moment anyway.
These are also the first 20-50 people who will buy her first book, subscribe to her newsletter or simply throw her $5/month to continue being awesome on Patreon.
Moreover, as a leader, she legitimizes Gab in the eyes of those followers. By complaining about the Right-Wing SJWs she's reinforcing the image of the Left's image of Gab. And that's doing everyone a disservice.
Nothing Grows in Stagnant Ground
The world you create for yourself on the internet is shaped by your habits. Breaking free of those habits and devoting 10% of your time to different platforms is valuable. If your presence there grows, divert more attention to it.
I see little value in micro-blogging platforms as a means of direct communication. I prefer real blogging platforms like this site and Steemit.
I see them as a vehicle to distribute real content, like this blog, my work at Steemit and my paid work to drive awareness and nothing more.
Gab, like Twitter, is a means to an end. It is also a place where I know that I will never be censored or have my time spent there taken away from me because I said some inconvenient truth.
It takes guts to walk away from a platform you've been successful on. It take perseverance to migrate off those platforms and take your engaged followers with you. They will resist. Google and Apple are making it difficult to do so.
The lack of a Gab app in the Apple Mobile Store is a real sticking point for people. But, if I'm valuable enough to my followers, they will figure out a way to go with me. And many have. Far more than I figured ever would.
Do I still use Twitter, Periscope and YouTube? Of course. But, I choose my level of interaction. My growth on those platforms is beyond my control now. I've gained more Periscope and Twitter followers in the past month by shaking up my routine than I did in the six months before that.
Going on Periscope outside of my normal times. My regularly scheduled Gold Goats 'n Guns Hour is now on GabTV, not Periscope.
Inserting myself and my relevant content into twitter streams of 'influencers,' especially ones trying to take credit for my work.
Creating content here that is picked up by other outlets, like this post.
Engage, rarely, in a war of words with someone I disagree with.
Incentives Create More than Disincentives
Bad behavior on Social Media 2.0-style platforms is rewarded. Conversing with people who have no skin in the relationship is ripe for anti-social and ugly behavior. Twitter is a cesspool for the most part. But, is it really any different than the comment section of Zerohedge or the Huffington Post?
No. And that's because reputation really doesn't matter.
Platforms like Steemit and, soon, Gab actively reward thoughtful content directly through tangible value and don't reward horrible behavior. No one upvotes a troll on Steemit.
And by having only so much voting power per unit time that voting power is valuable. It creates the positive feedback system of trying to impress the person you are talking with enough that they want to give you a reward for improving their life through your words and thoughts.
This is the way out of the Google/Apple duopoly and it's why they are so threatened by Gab and the so-called 'alt-tech.' As people with something to say refuse to use their systems to say it there first the value of their platforms is lessened. It leaks away to these other platforms.
Content producers can then truly interact directly with their audience. Advertising costs are minimized. The owners of the system can skim the running costs of the network off the reward pool and the system becomes not only self-sustaining but capable of geometric growth.
But it takes guts to move off of platforms designed to make the owners of it rich and give you almost nothing in return. We are the ones producing the things that have value. Not Google. Google provides the platform but that doesn't entitle them to 95% of the revenue for less than 1% of the work and cost.
That arbitrage is enormous and waiting to be ground into a paste. This is why both Apple and Google have become extensions of the government, to protect their duopoly, like good crony capitalists.
In fact, their network can eventually be completely replaced on the blockchain and those profits distributed to the people who generate them. But it starts with a complete shift in attitude by us to stop using the tools that chain us to their millstone.
Work like this takes time and care to produce. You'll note there are no ads on this site. Becoming a Patron of Gold Goats 'n Guns at Patreon is how you can help me help you.
For just $1 this month I have a Special Offer to give you the Gold Goats 'n Guns Newsletter (92% off the regular price).
Become a Guardian Dog and we can spread the word to protect others from the craziness coming. My Private Blog and Slack Channel get you exclusive content and access for just $4 per month.

What's Your Definition of Retirement?
From time to time, I chat with other readers and bloggers. The other day, I had an interesting chat with Steve from Brip Blap. While we chatted about a number of topics, two really stuck through in my mind… blogging and retirement.
For the last two and half months, I have not worked a steady day job. I thought I'd take a shot at staying at home, being a good house husband, and explore ways to make income on the side. Though it takes an extraordinarily large amount of my time, it's slowly starting to approach a portion of what I made at my day job. I consider myself very fortunate. My health site is lucky to bring in $10 in cash for the month. I suspect this is what many bloggers experience.
I couldn't help but take a few hours and roll that thought in my head. In the traditional sense of retirement, I have no doubt that it's true. I'd be hard pressed to convince anyone that I'm going to get to my goal of a 2.25M net worth by blogging. On the other hand, if you are a little liberal with your definition of retirement perhaps it can be a road to retiring at age 40.
Take a step back and look at that list. Doesn't blogging seems to fit as a good retirement job? Is blogging going to be able to bring in enough money and be consistent enough to rely on? If you can answer those two questions in the affirmative, you are on your way to "retiring" in a sense. Right now, I can't do that, but maybe in a few years I will be able to.
Steve quickly agreed that in some ways, profitably blogging could be considered a form of retirement. However, he noted that his idea of retirement requires investments that are more passive in nature (investments and royalties for example).
I think retirement should be seen in conjunction with financial independence. My definition of FI would be in having enough assets to generate income to satisfy all of my needs and most of my wants until I expire. Reaching FI I certainly found myself to be a lot more picky about what I do with my time, yet I'm busier than ever. Whereas retirement is becoming fuzzier and fuzzier I think FI is fairly clear cut. You either are or you aren't. Financial independence is the new retirement.
Yes, I am also aiming for FI.
Then the choices available will be very different.
So shooting for FI is what I am doing now.
There's something to be said about not having a full-time job. I do the blogging thing and do a lot of web-development work on a contract basis and it suits me just fine. I make more than enough to pay for life and college, and I get by just fine.
Financial Freedom is my goal for retirement. So as long as I hit this, I'm considered as a retiree. Yes I agree with you that this doesn't means that I will stop working and hanging around without doing anything. Instead, my plan is I want to travel around the world, do what I like to do, spend my time and energy in society contribution and of course, at the same time I still make more and more money.
Retirement for me is when I have enough assets/wealth to quit my day job anytime without worry of money.
Lazy Man's done a good job of representing my position here. My idea of "retirement" – a very dated word for what I'm thinking of – is that work is optional for basic needs. If I have "living costs" of $2000 per month (utilities, rent/mortgage, taxes, food) then if my investment income (or other 'passive' income) covers that, I'm retired. I could then pursue blogging, or alpaca raising, or professional poker playing without worrying about basic needs. The extra income would pay for non-essentials: netflix, travel, etc. So I'd still need income for the 'fun' part of life, but if I felt like hanging things up for a few months after I built up some savings I could.
That's exactly what I consider retirement. That I can quit my dayjob and do what I like, for however long I like, when and where I like. Essentially, I'll still be working but working for myself instead of for someone else.
By the time I'm 40, I'm still going to be able to do a great deal of things, such as volunteer work, charity work and of course, still keep things ticking over so I can keep getting that passive income.
I agree with MoneyNing – Retirement: having enough assets/wealth to quit my day job anytime without worry of money. I'm there.
However, I chose to work an easy parttime job for the free health insurance – as I am too frugal to pay for it!
Flexibility to working as much (or as little) as I want to – I have a lot of free time, and can divide my 30 hrs up as I wish. I can babysit the grandkids here and take time off for their school activities.
Flexibility to work from wherever I want to – not an option yet…..

Konosuba Announces Special Anime Expo 2019 Panel
By Nick Valdez - June 23, 2019 07:35 pm EDT
Although it's been relatively quiet after the second season came to an end two years ago, 2019 has been a huge year for Konosuba: God's Blessing on this Wonderful World!! Not only is the series back as part of an adorable crossover anime with fellow Kadokawa properties Overlord, Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-, and Saga of Tanya the Evil, but the franchise will be getting a new film in Japan later this Summer too.
As part of this huge year for the series is an upcoming appearance at the Anime Expo 2019 convention in Los Angeles, and fans will be able to attend a special panel with light novel illustrator Kurone Mishima in attendance.
Taking place Saturday, July 6th this special panel will feature Kurone Mishima in her first overseas appearance, and she'll be participating in the panel and autograph sessions according to Anime Expo's press release. They describe the panel as such, "Come meet the staff behind KONOSUBA -God's blessing on this wonderful world! for a series of Q&As, and gain early access to screening of the anime."
With two seasons under its belt, fans are hoping the franchise announces a third season soon. But before then, there will be the film Konosuba: God's Blessing on this Wonderful World!! Crimson Legend releasing in Japan this August. The franchise will even be breaking out into video games with a dungeon crawling RPG, so there might just be more new things from this franchise on the horizon!
KonoSuba: God's Blessing on this Wonderful World!! started out as a line of light novels written by Natsume Akatsuki with illustrations provided by Kurone Mishima for Kadokawa's Sneaker Bunko Imprint. It was later adapted into a manga in 2014, and an anime series by Studio Deen in 2016 and 2017 for two seasons. It is currently available to stream on Crunchyroll, and they describe the series as such:
"After a traffic accident, Kazuma Sato's disappointingly brief life was supposed to be over, but he wakes up to see a beautiful girl before him. She claims to be a goddess, Aqua, and asks if he would like to go to another world and bring only one thing with him. Kazuma decides to bring the goddess herself, and they are transported to a fantasy world filled with adventure, ruled by a demon king. Now Kazuma only wants to live in peace, but Aqua wants to solve many of this world's problems, and the demon king will only turn a blind eye for so long…"

I Like Exercise — So Why Am I So Bad at Running?
When it comes to my terrible running, it's genetics, but it's also kind of my own fault
I can't run for shit, as I've proven before. But I'm not terrible at yoga, and I still hold some remnants of the abilities I developed over 13 years of dance training as a kid. I even have some vague definition to my ab muscles. Meanwhile, my boyfriend can happily run for miles, but can't manage a simple downward dog. We chalk these differences up to the basic fact that some people are better at things than others, but what's actually behind this?
For the most part, it's just oxygen and habits. Generally, people's exercise strengths tend to fall into the two camps — aerobic or anaerobic. The former essentially means "with oxygen," while the latter means "without." People who are good at aerobic exercises like running or other forms of steady, moderate cardio are better able to regulate their oxygen intake and distribute it to their muscles. Anaerobic exercise, on the other hand, utilizes short bursts of energy and is less intensive on our lungs. This is essential for people with asthma, like me, and those just genetically predisposed to having problems distributing oxygen. So I might be bad at running a marathon (or even a 5k), but it's possible that I could be better at short-distance sprints. Similarly, the dance classes of my youth often required periods of intense activity, followed by periods of rest.
People without asthma may have a similar allegiance toward anaerobic exercise, simply because it's what they're used to. While asthma and our genetic strengths play a huge role, much of our physical abilities are developed with time and dedication. According to Runners World, our body's power to distribute oxygen to the muscles — and therefore run for longer distances — can be gradually increased, so long as you put in the effort. Part of the reason why some people are good at running, then, is just because they're committed to it.
Of course, our lungs aren't the only things working when we exercise. Activities like yoga often require flexibility and core strength, while weightlifting may focus on the strength of the arms and legs. Body strength and flexibility are both attributes that are largely determined by routine practice. Some people may be genetically inclined toward muscle building or doing the splits, but both are mostly the result of habit.
Destiny does have something to do with it — after all, my asthma is genetic. But the real reason why I'm bad at running is that I just don't do it enough. If I actually devoted myself to regularly running, I'd probably be less terrible at it. It is, though, much easier to view it as the will of God.

Nothing beats your own grip!
The Handie® Glove is a unique design that allows you to use the same grip that you've perfected and enjoyed over the years.

Chaffing is a thing of the past!
The Handie® Glove has a reservoir located near the Easy Clean Catcher, which can be filled with your favorite water-based lube. Simply press on the cap to dispense lubrication into the palm of The Handie® Glove.
Everyone wants a good buzz!
The Handie® Glove comes with a small, removable vibrating bullet located on the pinky finger for a gentle vibration on your sweet spot.
The Easy Clean Catcher cup allows you to quickly dispose of those little swimmers. Simply push the Catcher inside out over the toilet, then flush! With the inside of the cup still exposed, cleanup of the entire glove is as easy as applying gentle soap and placing The Handie® Glove under running water to wash and towel dry.
Nothing better than getting it in!
With The Handie® Glove, you have full control of everything, including the pressure of penetration into the Catcher. Loose or tight, it's up to you. Along the inside of the Catcher is a supple, textured opening for added stimulation.

Many of our competitors use particle board or mixed hardwoods in the construction for different parts of their wooden storage cabinets. Particle board, or pressed woods is a cheap material made from shredded scraps of recycled wood that is compressed using harsh chemical glues and resins that can contain formaldehyde. Formaldehyde has been classified by EPA as a probable human carcinogen. Cabinets and other furniture made from mixed hardwoods is problematic due to the variations in expansion and contraction of the different woods.
Our Amish made cabinets contain no particle board or mixed hardwoods. Each of our Amish made cabinets is built with select grade hardwoods that are harvested near the same wood mills and workshops where the cabinets are made. If you browse the wood types that can be ordered for your hardwood cabinets to be built in, you will find the most popular of options.

LOST IN SPACE (CD)
Composed by: Bruce Broughton
This $90 million science fiction adventure is adapted from the television series, created by Irwin Allen, which originally ran on CBS from 1965 to 1968. The original series employed a Swiss Family Robinson in outer space premise; sent to colonize a planet in the Alpha Centauri system, the Robinson family was thrown off course by a stowaway and was left wandering from planet to planet (and changing along the way from a black-and-white series to a color series). The 1998 remake is set in the year 2058, when the United Global Space Force sends Professor John Robinson (William Hurt) and family -- wife Maureen (Mimi Rogers), daughter Judy (Heather Graham), teen Penny (Lacey Chabert), and 10-year-old Will (Jack Johnson) -- on a promotional space jaunt to herald the "offshore" future for the human race (now saddled with eco problems on Earth). Major Don West (Matt LeBlanc), more accustomed to fighting menacing Global Sedition forces, is reluctant to sign on as the Jupiter II pilot but quickly changes his mind after he gets a good look at Judy in her fetish-fashioned space togs. Space spy Dr. Smith (Gary Oldman), hired to sabotage the mission, programs in problems but winds up aboard the craft unconscious. Once awake, he summons the Robinsons from suspended animation, and they save the ship just in time, passing through hyperspace to arrive near an Earth ship where they encounter space-pet Blawp and hordes of teethy spiders. A spider bite makes the villainous Smith mutate, one of some 750 special effects, from animatronics (Jim Henson Creature Shop) to CGI, and other adventures await throughout the galaxy. Cameos include actors from the original series, including June Lockhart and Robot Voice Dick Tufeld. In a curious coincidence, the TV series took place in the future of 1997, the year this movie was produced. 1998

Strengthening its foray into the Russian smartphone market, Chinese OEM Xiaomi launched a trio its handsets – the Mi Mix, the Mi Note 2 as well as the Redmi 4X – in an event which also marked its first launch event in the country.
The aforementioned handsets join a considerable collection of Xiaomi devices already out in Russia, that includes the Mi5 series, the Redmi Note 4 and the Redmi 4 Prime (amongst others).
In addition to that, the company has also decided to set up as many as six official offline stores spanning across the cities of Moscow, St. Petersburg and Vladivostok, some of which will also function as service centers for devices brought out by the company in the country.
Each of the three phone currently thronging Russia come accompanied by a launch offer available specifically for those who pre-order the devices on the RDC (the company's official reseller in Russia since last year) website by 2nd of May.
With the Mi Mix (18K gold edition), the users get to have a free Mi Bluetooth speaker, while the Mi Piston Air Capsule and Mi Piston Basic earphones will be provided along with the Mi Note 2 and Redmi 4X respectively.
These surely are promising signs for the company, which is looking to break into the offline segment of the market big time, shedding its image of an online-exclusive brand. Let's see when it gets the phones out globally.

SGA Profile: Erika Noel
Posted on October 5, 2020 by The Observer - Broward College
Sarah Leyva
"Insightful, challenging and cheerful" are the words Erika Noel used to describe her experience as SGA president of Broward College Central Campus for almost two terms in office. After having a one-on-one with her, she was able to give me an inside look of what it means to be president, some of her responsibilities and a little bit about who she is outside of SGA.
Noel was born in Ft. Lauderdale, and attended Boyd Anderson High School, before attending the University of Central Florida, but soon after that she realized that Broward College was a better fit for her.
Noel best puts it," Broward College was the best option because I got to grow up a little more financially and mentally, before I go on to a bigger university where I'm completely on my own and disconnected from my family."
She is currently on her premed track studying biomedical engineering and is planning to transfer to USF. Outside of school, she enjoys reading, watching anime and Netflix dramas, and dancing which she also did in high school as well.
Before her start in SGA at Broward College, she had actually been a part of her high school's SGA junior and senior year, even though she had that prior experience in SGA in high school she described them both as being different but both still with that common goal.
Noel described it as being, "a servant leader serving the students and representing your class and always holding their best interest at heart."
When starting at Broward she wanted to find a club that would really help put herself out there and meet new people. She saw SGA being the best fit for her because it was something she had already done two years before and she saw it as a place she could grow and become a better leader, and she describes SGA as being, "home in a sense."
She describes her being able to live the best of both worlds by being able to do something in the field of politics but still studying in her field of medicine, based on her view on life which she describes as," there is only one life you get to live so it is so important to experience as many things as you can."
She began her passion in politics in high school when she joined a club called Youth in Government, and she realized she had an interest in this career experience and she decided to join SGA after that, but she still knew she wanted to do medicine.
She describes SGA as being "a great place to meet people, to build connections and to really meet people who are on the same path as you and give you really good life advice.
Noel was able to talk about some of the projects she and her team have been able to accomplish as well as upcoming projects.
She said how Student Life and SGA collaborate to accomplish projects at school. In last fall alone, they had 120 projects, with the help of Student Life they are able to make these events happen.
Noel was the head for one of the projects, Constitution Day, and was able to give the student body a fun way to look at the constitution. She also helped put together the other events.
Because of the impact Covid-19 has had on everything including school when it comes to remote learning, much of the original plans had to be changed for spring semester and redesigned into now virtual events for students.
She said even though SGA has changed platforms their main goal is to "develop holistic students in the sense that we want them to be well rounded and to have all eight of the factors that it takes to be a healthy human."
She discussed the issue now with COVID-19 how it really changed the way they can reach out to students and now they're making social media their biggest platform to reach students, which has definitely made her and the rest of SGA think outside of the box.
Lastly, I asked her what her advice would be to the next SGA president.
"Always take advantage of the resources you are given, and not assume that you have to do everything on your own."

In our Living With and Healing from Trauma on a Daily Basis Series, I dissect issues and symptoms of PTSD/trauma. This is in hopes of letting people know that they are not alone, as well as giving people the freedom to comment, and talk about how PTSD/trauma has affected their lives in these areas. The last post in the Living With and Healing from Trauma on a Daily Basis Series was one dealing with the Holiday Aspect of trauma. You can find that post here. Today's post will focus on the Digestion Aspect.
Trauma and grief will come out in the form of regurgitation.
I am not trying to sound gross here, so please bear with me. Due to complications with my ex-husband's health, as well as the fact that I had stuffed my emotions for so long, my grief was delayed. Grieving my divorce, and all the events surrounding it, were delayed. Alleviating some of the symptoms that I was experiencing seemed downright frightening because of stuffing for so long.
This caused me to be in a vicious cycle of stuffing and feeling like my face and chest was going to explode, with very little relief. Trauma is in the tissues, and so I discovered, along with reading information on my own, that movement, grief, and massaging helped to release it. The problem came into play when I finally felt like I could release the trauma. However, the underlying feeling was that if I started crying, there would be no bottoming out. Subconsciously, I knew it was going to be a bad release.
Instead of my system waiting any longer, it released the trauma and grief in the form of regurgitation. Initially, I thought that it was just that maybe something upset my stomach. However, after four rounds of this, and feeling grief in between each round, I knew that wasn't the case at all. It didn't take long to put two and two together.
I felt very vulnerable, and my son kept asking me, "What did you eat?" I told him that it had nothing to do with the food. It was physiological.
Trauma will cause your system to get confused about hunger and fullness.
Another weird discovery that I made is that every now and then, stored trauma and unreleased grief will make your system confused as far as satiety is concerned. There are times when I have felt like I could keep eating forever. Then, there are other times that I feel hungry, and then attempt to eat, but will all of a sudden feel full.
Lastly, there are times when I can literally feel my emotions trapped in my midsection, causing my body to try to figure out whether it is satisfied, or it needs more food. It is the weirdest thing. It doesn't happen as much anymore. However, when it happens, it can be very frustrating.
When doing research, one of the explanations that I found is that because of PTSD/trauma, at times, the blood that should flow into the stomach, moves away from it, going to other areas like the arms.
Trauma will cause you to become hypersensitive to certain foods, causing severe panic attacks when consumed in normal portions.
The last issue that I would like to discuss is how trauma causes hypersensitivity to foods. These foods vary from person to person. For me, it was sugar. I first discovered this when I decided to eat a glazed donut in 2015.
Within five minutes, a severe panic attack came on, I felt like I was going to hit the roof. The only thing that would help my system to calm down was drinking an excess amount of water, and then deep breathing, and a lot of prayer. Taking multivitamins has helped , but it is still not the same.
My system has improved a little. However, it can't handle what it once was able to. Sometimes, I get frustrated with this fact. It is what it is. I have learned to accept the fact that a few moments of pleasure for an hour or more of panic just isn't worth it.
How has PTSD/trauma affected your digestion? What are some of the ways that you use to cope with it?
I have been reading Brene Brown's new book, Dare to Lead for a couple of weeks now. If I was just reading that one book, I would be done by now. However, I am reading about six books at the same time. What I love is that the Holy Spirit has intertwined several themes across the board with all of these books: vulnerability, shame, joy, gratitude, dealing with the unexpected, hustling for self-worth, and filling our thirst.
This reminds of last night. I got together with a group of friends. I allowed myself to not dismiss the reality that my life has been filled with lots of drama and trauma within the last six months. However, my heart was full. It was so, so full. I thanked God for my friends, the food, the fellowship, time to decompress, and the laughs from the movie. I thanked him for all his goodness in spite of what my real life problems were.
The second quote was a Holy Spirit moment because just a week ago, I had an accident. I allowed myself to sink in anger about all the inconveniences, but then quickly gave myself a gratitude check. That post can be found here. The funny thing about it is that I titled the post "Gratitude Check" prior to reading page 83 of Dare to Lead. God knows how to bring all things together.
The last quote is from page 97, which was another Holy Spirit moment. It reminded me of my IT job from years ago, where I sought to prove that I could sit at the table with others who made a certain salary, instead of being discriminated against. I didn't realize that the only table that I needed to have recognition at is the table of Christ. The "Heavenly Places" blog post can be found here.
A few days ago, I decided to try my hands at a simple spaghetti recipe. There were very few ingredients. It turned out pretty good. The only problem was that I put too many red pepper flakes. I would take a bite to eat, then feel flames at the back of my throat. This cycle repeated itself until the bowl was empty. Enjoy!
Boil six cups of water with olive oil or butter so that the spaghetti won't stick.
Add the spaghetti to the boiling water.
Dump the pasta sauce and tomato soup into the pot.
Add one can of water to the pot.
Dump all the seasonings into the pot.
Serve in bowls or on plates.
Garnish with basil or spinach leaves.

Graeme Devine on Quest
[Sep 03, 2001, 3:19 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Fan site id Pro Quo has posted an audio recording of a workshop conducted by id Software's Graeme Devine from last year's QuakeCon 2000 on the topic of Quest, the online game project that had already by that time been cancelled. They've posted this now because there has been quite a bit of speculation that some aspects of Quest are being put into Nerve Software's upcoming unnamed mystery project "based on an original design by id Software" (story). If that really is the case, however, it represents a change in plan by contradicting the very reason Graeme is so forthcoming about Quest details in his talk, as in the very beginning he says: "Quest is not coming out... no one's gonna do it, so I can tell you all about it." The three and a half minute mp3-format recording indeed features details on the concept behind Quest and describes gameplay, and offers an explanation of how, contrary to popular belief, the online component would not qualify this as an MMORPG.
4. listen carefully... Sep 4, 2001, 03:15 shul
Quest is a brilliant idea - maybe some V12 licensee will take it on...
anyway, if you download "reverse play" at http://www.3pm.net you can reverse the mp3 and listen to greame say "Carmack killed hoffa... Carmack killed hoffa... Carmack killed hoffa... "
shul.. conspiracy is everywhere
3. Re: cool Sep 4, 2001, 00:35 anon@66.122
what is that he says about the new DooM? After he says its single player ONLY, does he say it has no coop?
Sounds like he says "it has no coop alkhdglja (something I cant understand)
Someone help me out here. . . tell me he is not saying that DooM III will NOT HAVE COOPERATIVE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!?!
2. Heh Sep 3, 2001, 19:24 Liquid
He said there would be no Quake 4 too....

I like the Quake 3 Arena.

The sound recording is quite difficult to understand due to the room echo but to break it down to the basics it would involve 5 players as different classes (magic, barbarian, etc) in a dugeon type situation and another player as a sort of Dungeon Master controlling all aspects of the environment (devine mentions Dungeon Keeper 2 as a comparison). Sounds similar to Neverwinter Nights. Im not a big Fantasy fan but this sounded cool , I hope someone gets around to doing it

Here, you can get some of the inspirational bathroom if you are still confused to re-design your bathroom.
Your bathroom will get a new look just by changing your sink. If you want to be more stand out, you can give a divider between your shower and the sink. The open shower behind your sink will give a fresh look and also more spacious ambience. You can get more natural by having wood furniture for your sink cabinets, flooring, and also for the bath tub coverage. Using the calm brown color will really perfect for this design.
The calming hue color is the blue color, whether you choose the dark or the light blue. Color Psychology said that the blue color will decrease your heart rate and make it more calm and peace. This is very suitable for your private room like bathroom and bedroom. You can mix your blue wall with some neutral colors like light gray, broken white, and also dark gray. This combination can give your bathroom a classic look.
By having such a unique showerhead will easily turn your bathroom to be gorgeous. You can use the spa showerhead if you want to create a silent and quite spa ambience when taking a bath. Not only does a showerhead will give a refreshing feeling, but it also gives you an immersive experience. The use of glow showerhead will be also nice to give you different experience.
The natural light will be really good for bathroom. You can use a big window for getting the light as well as the outside views. This window will illuminate the whole room and also it gives you a spa experience. But, you also need to keep your privacy from the outsider. You can use the frosted glass that can block the outside view. This is the way easily to make your bathroom feel more natural.
Some people think that wooden slats cannot suit enough for the bathroom because it is not practical. Instead, using wooden will give natural and warm ambience for your bathroom. You can put some of wooden floor to your bathroom by adding it under the bath tub or your shower. This may give a look of Japanese bathroom.
You can choose the rot-resistant wood such as California redwood or teak wood. When you have a minimalist bathroom as the picture above, you can create a wood floor that is wrapped up your wall and becomes the ledge for holding the toiletries and your shower necessities.
Open shower will give you different experience everyday and it will also create the unencumbered feeling and like being outside. You need to consider the space for splash zone in order to avoid soaking the bathroom. Or you can also install some glass partitions. The use of showerhead can be the best choice.
When you want to determine the space look of your bathroom, you can use the proper tile wall. You can use the wainscoting for your tile since it will give you both aesthetic and functional tile. This wainscoting will protect your lower wall so it will not get scuffed. This will also make your bathroom look classic yet stunning combining with the clean border.
Bathroom is the small room in the house. That's why it needs more detail design to make it eye catching and meet your favorite. The choice of proper paint wall color, lighting, and also the tile work will really give your outdated bathroom a brighten view and stylish look. Now, you can see some makeover for the bathroom to make it more glamour, classy, and stylish.
The style of Glitz and Old-World in these tiles is inspired by the old Mediterranean countries for example Spain, Portugal, and Morocco. They give an elegant combination and also pop up the stunning of terra cotta in hand-painted that is paired with the modern metallics.
Using the practical storage is really stunning and also stylish. You can design your bathroom with the storage in any size. You can maximize your vertical space and have your cabinet on the wall.
The use of the subway in old-school white tile will always be the favorite design. It gives neutral, clean and tidy look.
Having no-threshold showers combining with toilet in a comfort-height, with the vanities and side-mount faucets will give you a very practical bathroom. Choose the curbless showers because it will be easy to clean, and give a spacious look for bathroom.
The monochromatic style gives an inviting touch like this tile that inspired from the Hollywood-regency style.
Adding some electronics stuff like wireless speaker and Bluetooth media will make your bathroom a commonplace. You can make the multitasking to the next level with this all-in-one speaker combo and showerhead.
Sometimes luxury can come in the form of a little extra-added warmth. Warm toes and a warm towel can make all the difference on a cold winter's morning. Radiant floor heat is energy efficient because the heat is touching your body, warming you from the bottom up.
According to the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA), showers are becoming far more popular than tubs. So accordingly, high-tech spa-like body sprays, water jets and showerheads are becoming more commonplace. Find more design ideas from the hit show I Hate My Bath.
If you've got the budget, you won & regret implementing this trend into your bathroom remodel.
Ventless fire features make it easy and less expensive to add warmth to your new bathroom.
Not only will you add romance and luxury to your master suite, a fireplace will help increase your home's resale value.
Big items like the vanity top and special-order tile can take several weeks to arrive. So be patient: Before you take a hammer or Sawzall to you bathroom, make sure everything you're going to need— including the vanity, plumbing fixtures, any new lighting, the tub, and tile—is on hand.
You might get frustrated waiting around for parts to arrive, but it's better than tearing up your fixtures and having an unusable bathroom until the components arrive. Plus, when your new products are on hand, you'll know if you need to do extra work, such as moving the plumbing lines for the sink location or running new cable for your lights, before you rip up and then patch the walls.
Home centers have a limited selection of vanities and tops in the store, and special orders can take four to six weeks for delivery, so take a look at other sources. Local independent suppliers who specialize in natural stone have a wide selection of tops in a range of colors and sizes. They can also custom-cut tops to fit unusual spaces and shapes.
You may be surprised at how affordable the tops can be. Or do what I did—shop online. I admit being apprehensive about buying the centerpiece to our bathroom based on pictures and a written description, but I liked what I saw, including the price.
