Youth #1 Native male 5′ 10" to 6′ 00" tall with a slim build approximately 150 lbs born in 1995. He has a scar on his mouth under his lip and is a local from the Kehiwin First Nations.
Youth #2 Native male 5′ 10" to 6′ 01" tall with a medium build approximately 183 lbs born in 1994. Short black hair and brown eyes and may be wearing glasses. He is from the Samson Reserve.
The police are pleading for the public's assistance for information leading to the arrest of Franklin Gladue and the other individuals who are committing these robberies. The RCMP are very concerned as the level of violence has apparently been increasing at each robbery. These individual are to be considered as armed and dangerous and the public are asked to call any law enforcement agency with information about these criminals as it is very important for the safety of the public to have these persons arrested as soon as possible. If anonymity is a concern then please call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 who offer a reward for information and will never reveal the name of the caller.
A sawed-off shot gun has been present at all of the robberies along with a variety of other weapons.
The latest robbery saw a female teller get physically assaulted even though she was cooperating with the gang's demands.
Arrests warrants have been issued for a male believed to be responsible for 2 armed bank robberies. RCMP are seeking Franklin William Gladue, 34 years old from the Edmonton area. He is believed to be in the Edmonton area.
He is described as Aboriginal, 6 feet tall, 240 lbs, Black hair and brown eyes. He has a number of tattoos including a picture of a clown on his left upper arm, the word "Eternal" on his right sleeve and the words "Solid Brother" and "F.G." on his left abdomen.
He is to be considered to be armed and dangerous. Should members of the public have information on the whereabouts of Franklin Gladue they should immediately contact their local police agency. Members of the public should not approach the subject. The public can also utilize Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477.

Morale Fading as Syracuse Shutout by No. 22 Louisville
By Tom Russo
CitrusTV Women's Soccer Beat Reporter
Even with a match postponed due to a food-borne illness victimizing nearly the entire visiting team, Coach Nicky Adams still saw the strangest occurrence of the weekend happen on the pitch.
"I was really disappointed in the way we came out. I was not expecting that," said Adams. "I thought we had good energy coming up into this game. So honestly I was a bit shocked with how energetic we were when the whistle blew."
That's because when the whistle blew, Syracuse (2-5-2, 0-1-1 Atlantic Coast) was mainly standing still. No. 22 Louisville (8-1, 1-1 Atlantic Coast) certainly was not.
It took precisely 35 seconds for the Cardinals to fly right by the Orange defense, and before you could even say goal Delaney Snyder had No. 22 Louisville up 1-0.
34 minutes later Corrine Dente launched a perfect shot from beyond the 18 to extend the Cardinals' lead to 2-0.
In the 75th minute, Emina Ekic officially put the game on ice with a perfect strike, and No. 22 Louisville cruised to a comfortable 3-0 victory.
But it wasn't the goals that had Adams' head spinning on the sideline.
"I'll give Louisville a lot of credit," said Adams. "I thought the three goals they scored were clinical. I mean [Ekic], upper 90, there's not a goalkeeper that can really make those saves. Those were three clinical finishes."
The problem for the coach was her team's inability to take significantly easier opportunities and bury them.
"In the first half I didn't think we played well, but we still created two breakaway chances where we could put two away in the first half and then we're looking at a different second half," said Adams.
"Overall I'm really disappointed in our presence and being here to compete," said Adams. "I thought we were not good. I thought we had a very selfish mentality in terms of defending, that's not normal for this group. So, I'm pretty disappointed."
And Coach was not the only one voicing her displeasure with the performance. Senior captain Georgia Allen echoed Adams' frustrations.
"We have to fight," said Allen. "That's the simple part. You see a ball you have to go get it. And that wasn't there today."
Senior Taylor Bennett agreed that the team has to go back and reassess its heart.
"It came down to a lack of heart from us," said Bennett. "We need to really take a gut check and fix ourselves first before we look at the outside opposition."
Allen gave perhaps the most stinging indictment of the team's play though.
"We have got 11 players that go on the field and if you don't show the heart to wear this shirt and to be part of this university. It doesn't matter if you've got 11 players or 33 players. At the end of the day if we're not competing, we don't deserve to be on the field," said Allen.
Morale is fading in the locker room, and if the Orange don't turn it around soon, they could find themselves in deep trouble.
"It's on our shoulders to take the time out of practice and make sure we're doing the extra work that we need to do," said Allen. "We've gotta be disappointed with the small things, with the details that kids way younger than us would get wrong. That's not the mistakes we make as ACC players so we need to take a long, hard look at ourselves and have some self-evaluation and self-reflection and see what we can do outside of practice."
Syracuse doesn't have much time to find that mojo again, because on Sunday things get even harder when No. 6 Florida State (8-2, 2-0 Atlantic Coast) comes to the SU Soccer Stadium.

Terra's Kitchen is a weekly meal delivery service where you select recipes each week, and then receive chopped ingredients that are ready to cook in 30 minutes or less. Recipes are priced individually (minimum order is $64.99), and you can choose add-on salads, proteins, and sides. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and paleo options available.
I just received my second box from Terra's Kitchen. So far, I love it. I also subscribe to Homechef, so I have something to compare it to. The available meal selection is absolutely amazing. The ability to add extra proteins, salads and snacks is what really drew me in the first place (that and a $50 coupon). I am not vegetarian, but will often buy a vegetarian meal because it looks yummy and then have to buy the protein that I want to go with it. This is really one stop shopping. The way it is delivered makes the whole experience even more fun. It's delivered in a "mini fridge" - really just a really nice cooler with shelves. The container gets picked up the following day and reused 100 times, so it's greener than most of the other meal boxes. The ingredients come in cute little reusable containers - and the veggies are pre sliced and diced. It's such a major time saver. Most meals take 30 minutes to make. I selected 3 meals each time and they were all a home run. Everything was so fresh. The directions were easy to follow. Everything turned out great. I would get everything again. The downside is the expense. You need to order $63.99 per week, but the shipping is free. If you are trying to budget, that can be an issue too. Meals range from $9.99 to $17.99 per person. To me, it was totally worth it the expense. I'm recommending it to all my friends.

If you've ever wondered what it might be like to work as a private investigator, the truth is you're far from alone. Everyone's seen those snooping PIs going about their business on TV and in the movies, painting a picture of a dark and mysterious underworld where people move in shadows and live their lives off the radar. Of course, common sense should tell you that things are never quite as they're portrayed in popular culture and this is indeed the case here. Sure, it can be rewarding and even enjoyable to be a PI, but it's certainly not all 'James Bond' style spy-work and a rip-roaring thrill ride from start to finish.
Of course, what's involved will vary dramatically in accordance with the type of PI a person becomes and what they choose to specialise in. Nevertheless, there are certain things the movies will never tell you about the life of the PI, which usually have to be learned along the way.
First of all, if you're the type that likes to work standard office hours on weekdays only, you can forget about becoming a PI. You might open your office during these hours, but when it comes to carrying out your actual investigative work, chances are most of it will take place outside office hours and on weekends. There's almost no routine or consistency whatsoever when it comes to working hours and you have to be prepared to be anywhere at any time at a moment's notice. If you cannot, this isn't the job for you.
The mark of a great PI is one that can get the job done without getting into any kind of danger at all. This of course takes extreme skill and plenty of experience, which is why for those who are just learning the ropes or getting used to things, danger represents a quite common part of the job. The extent of the danger will vary in accordance with what you do and the kinds of jobs you take on of course, but it's important to acknowledge the fact that safety isn't something that can be taken for granted.
Even in instances where there's no specific danger, chances are you'll often find yourself facing a rather awkward situation. For example, the suspected cheating spouse has not only been caught red-handed, but has also noticed you and realised what you're doing. She approaches you, begs you not to say anything and offers to pay you triple…what do you do? If you tell the truth you'll bring an end to the marriage, but at the same time this is your job and what you agreed to do – slightly awkward to say the least!
When you are working off your own bat as a private investigator, you take control of your own workload and find your own cases. As such, it's not a case of being able to depend on a certain amount of money coming in at any time of the month, or even any money at all for that matter. You don't get vacation pay, you lose money if you're off sick and if business is slow, you might not earn anything. That being said, if you're good at what you do and end up becoming a respected and in-demand professional, you can pretty much write your own ticket.
Not literally of course…although sometimes…but it's important to remember that much of the work you do will involve travelling. It's not uncommon for the average PI to clock up around 35,000 miles or even 50,000 miles per year, depending on what they do and where they do it. Needless to say, this puts a strain on your vehicle and means more repairs, more petrol and more chance of breaking down – all of which must be factored in before getting up and running.
Last but not least, never overlook the fact that when you are first getting up and running, you'll need to spend quite a lot of money on the gear you need. Along with establishing your business in the typical sense – website, office etc – you'll also need things like a cutting-edge camera with an outstanding lens and various other surveillance equipment. Suffice to say, all of these essentials combined can set you back thousands and will inevitably need replacing sooner or later.


Software named ScaffOpt predicts the affinity of a candidate ligand and its mode of interaction with the targeted protein in order to drive rational drug design.
The code of ScaffOpt is still under development, and will be described in detail in a forthcoming publication.
In the software competition named D3R Grand Challenge, which aims to promote technologies that will reduce the cost of drug discovery, Thomas Evangelidis recorded success despite strong competition from multi-membered groups from academia and industry.
His software for drug optimalization, named ScaffOpt, predicts the affinity of a candidate ligand and its mode of interaction with the targeted protein in order to drive rational drug design (a range of computational techniques, aiming to help in the selection of drug-like molecules for biological testing).
"The goal of software solutions in drug discovery is to reduce the costs," explains Thomas Evangelidis from Kostas Tripsianes' research group. "My software was highly rated and eventually ranked among the four best in the various categories of the competition," adds Evagelidis. Most of the participating groups used well-established software, many of which required human intervention. In contrast, Thomas Evangelidis from CEITEC presented in the competition results of his own work and introduced his new, fully-automated software.
ScaffOpt employs machine learning methods to build a receptor specific model "on the fly" that combines the output of an ensemble of artificial neural networks to guess the protein-ligand binding affinity. Each network is trained using information about pharmacophores, 2D chemical structure, molecular shape and interaction patterns with the receptor or per-residue free energy contribution to ligand binding.
Scientists developed a computer software that greatly reduces the number of required experiments and human time spent.

Amfisbena plamista (Amphisbaena fuliginosa) – gatunek beznogiego gada z rodziny Amphisbaenidae, występujący w Ameryce Południowej, na Trynidadzie i w Panamie.

Środowisko
Amfisbeny plamiste żyją głównie na terenach o luźnej strukturze podłoża, gdzie mogą kopać tunele.

Zachowanie
Amfisbena plamista większość życia spędza pod ziemią, drążąc sieć korytarzy. Jej schronienie kryje się w wilgotnej ziemi w pobliżu zbiornika wodnego, lub pod drzewami. Co pewien czas opuszcza kryjówkę i wygrzewa się w promieniach słońca. Amfisbena wychodzi spod ziemi także po obfitych deszczach, gdyż inaczej utopiła by się w zalanych wodą korytarzach. Zwierzę potrafi poruszać się w przód i do tyłu. Łuski pokrywające ciało gada układają się w pierścienie. Sąsiednie segmenty są połączone mięśniami, które mogą się kurczyć lub rozciągać. Amfisbena porusza się w linii prostej wykonując ruchy robaczkowe. Wysunięta do przodu część ciała zakotwicza się w glebie, silne mięśnie podciągają resztę pierścieni. Może także poruszać się, kurcząc i rozciągając ciało lub wykonując boczne, falujące ruchy. Amfisbena ryje głową korytarze (używając głowy jako tarana). Gad ten jest sprawnym myśliwym. Ofiary wykrywa przede wszystkim za pomocą słuchu. Chwyta drobne kręgowce oraz bezkręgowce, głównie owady i dżdżownice. Ma bardzo silne szczęki i ostre zęby. W górnej szczęce po każdej stronie tkwi 5–6 zębów. Na środku znajduje się 1 ząb. Gdy amfisbena ma zamknięty pysk, ząb wpasowuje się między duże zęby żuchwy. Jeśli gad złowi większe zwierzę, to zaciska na jego ciele silne szczęki, a ostre zęby odcinają fragmenty zdobyczy. Naukowcy przypuszczają, że dieta zwierzęcia zmienia się okresowo. Amfisbena ma wielu wrogów naturalnych. Polują na nią ptaki, niektóre małe ssaki, świnie i małpy. Niektóre gatunki węży wyspecjalizowały się w podziemnych polowaniach na amfisbeny. Dla obrony gad może odrzucić ogon, który nie odrasta, ale rana po nim szybko się goi. Pożywia się małymi kręgowcami, bezkręgowcami i owadami.

Rozmnażanie
Amfisbeny są (poza 3 gatunkami) jajorodne. Sposób rozmnażania się tych zwierząt jest nieznany. Nie wiadomo także, ile samice składają jaj, ani jaki jest czas ich inkubacji. Samce posiadają parzysty narząd kopulacyjny w kształcie kieszeni. Podczas kopulacji jedna z kieszeni jest wynicowywana na zewnątrz. Samica składa jaja i pozostawia je bez opieki. Młode amfisbeny wykluwają się przebijając skorupkę jaja zębem jajowym wyrastającym na wewnętrznej stronie górnej szczęki i wyginającym się na zewnątrz. Z czasem zostaje on zastąpiony normalnym zębem. Jak wszystkie gady amfisbeny linieją w czasie wzrostu i zrzucają zbyt ciasną skórę w całości.

Charakterystyka
 Głowa Gruba silna głowa jest pokryta rogowymi tarczkami.

 Oczy Niewielkie oczy są chronione przez przezroczystą warstwę skóry.

 Ciało Walcowate ciało prawie na całej długości ma jednakową średnicę. Ma barwę czarno-białą.

 Ogon Krótki gruby ogon jest dobrze umięśniony.

Over 3000 years ago, David asked, "What is man that God is mindful of him, and the son of man that you visit him?" So, what is it that motivates God to bless, provide and protect us? The answer is His incredible, awesome love.
The scripture doesn't say that God is loving, but rather that He is love. Romans 5:8 tells us that God demonstrates His love for us, that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. So, He didn't die for us while we were sitting in the church pew in our fancy clothes with the Bible open on our laps. Instead it was while we were living wild and crazy lives.
Romans 8:35-39 asks who shall separate us from the love of Christ? It's mysterious that He uses the word "who" in this passage, because it's those "whos" will come along in your life to try and separate you from the faith of God. Shall tribulation, stress, persecution, famine, danger or peril separate you form the Lord? The Bible says absolutely not. In all of these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us!
If you want to know how far Christ will go, look at His arms stretched out on the cross on Calvary. God will follow you if you leave the Father's house. He'll follow you to another country, to the pig's pen, and until you come to your right mind. That is the length that God will go for every one of us.
To what depth will God go? Saul of Tarsus had one motive in mind; to destroy the church of Jesus Christ. He took the bloody clothes of Stephen after being martyred, and threatened the lives of Christians, promising to wipe them out. But as Saul of Tarsus was on his way to Damascus, his life was suddenly changed. He was then transformed into Paul, the Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ. God will do this for the chief of sinners!
How wide will God go? For God so loved the world! How far will He go? He will go to the farthest places to find you. How deep will He go? God will go to the deepest depths, no matter the sin you're in. Therefore, know that God will go as high and as low, as far and as wide as He needs to go to save one of His own.
Let these truths lead you to pray for your loved ones who have strayed. Let them lead you in your own repentance if you've become complacent or lazy in your walk with Him. Knowing that God will go to the deepest valley with His children, and that He's with them on the highest mountain is comforting beyond anything the world can give!
We're praying for you and we love y'all! We're saving you a seat at Community Family Church!

Chi Lupi (χ Lup / χ Lupi) è una stella binaria nella costellazione del Lupo, di magnitudine apparente è +3,96 e distante 195 anni luce dal sistema solare. Al contrario di molte altre stelle della costellazione del Lupo, come ad esempio  e , non fa parte dell'associazione stellare Scorpius-Centaurus, distante oltre il doppio rispetto a Chi Lupi e notevolmente più giovane rispetto ad essa.

Caratteristiche fisiche
Chi Lupi è una binaria spettroscopica formata da due stelle separate tra loro da appena 0,25 UA, che ruotano attorno al comune centro di massa in 15,26 giorni. La principale è una stella subgigante blu di tipo spettrale B9IV, che ha una massa tripla rispetto al Sole, mentre la secondaria è una stella bianca di sequenza principale di classe A2V con una massa poco più che doppia rispetto al Sole.

Entrambe sono stelle peculiari per via dell'abbondanza di certi elementi nel loro spettro: la principale è una stella al mercurio-manganese, ricchissima, rispetto al Sole, di mercurio, oro e platino. La secondaria è invece una stella Am, una classe di stelle solitamente ricche di alcuni elementi come rame, zirconio, bario, europio e, allo stesso tempo, povera di altri elementi come ad esempio il calcio.
L'età del sistema è di circa 250 milioni di anni.

With temperatures as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit, Sweden's ICEHOTEL is a chilly yet comforting tourist attraction.
Jukkasjärvi's ICEHOTEL, near Kiruna, Lapland, Sweden. Editorial credit: karenfoleyphotography / Shutterstock.com.
The Ice Hotel (or ICEHOTEL) is to be found in Jukkasjärvi, a small town in Sweden 200 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle. The town is around 15 kilometers from the nearest airport in the town Kiruna in the Swedish province of Lapland. Every winter, the Ice Hotel is built with a fresh design. The chairs, chandeliers, beds, suites, and hotel bar are each carved from ice. Nonetheless, there are still warm areas for dressing, showering, and even enjoying saunas. The Ice Hotel looks like it was built from huge pieces of contoured glass. It is allowed for by the ice found in the Swedish Lapland, which during winter has temperatures reaching down to -40 degrees centigrade (-40 Fahrenheit).
Built in 1989, the Ice Hotel of Jukkasjärvi was the world's first ice hotel, with many imitators to follow. The ICEHOTEL attracts tourists from over 80 countries, and there are various flights from the US to Sweden. United Airlines operates flights to Stockholm, Sweden from Los Angeles, Orlando, Miami, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Denver, Boston, New York, Chicago, Houston, Fort Lauderdale and Washington. From Stockholm, according to Routes North Travel Guide, during winter months there are daily flights to Kiruna Airport. There also are night trains from Stockholm Central Station that take 16 hours to reach Kiruna. From Kiruna, there are buses that travel directly to the Ice Hotel, a trip that takes approximately 30 minutes.
The main pull of the Ice Hotel of Jukkasjärvi to tourists arises from its unique way of construction, and the wining and dining experience it proffers. The hotel is built from 5,000 tons of ice harvested during winter from the frozen, Swedish River Torne. Each and every artistic piece that adorns its interiors have been carved from ice. The winter environment ensures rooms are maintained at temperatures of 23 degrees Fahrenheit (-5 degree Celsius). It has an ice bar dubbed the "World's Coolest Bar", a lobby, church, and main hall, all made of ice. There are around 60 artistically different ice-themed rooms. Tourists get to experience sleeping on an icy bed within the construction of the Ice Hotel. Wines and meals prepared from native elk, reindeer, and grouse are also served therein.
Some of the animals that live in the Swedish Lapland wilderness include the golden eagle, arctic fox, moose, brown bear, wolf and wolverine. The vegetation present there includes cranberries, blueberries, cloudberries, lingonberries, glacier buttercups, moss bell heather, lichens, alpine and dwarf birch, and pine trees. 10 minutes away from the Ice hotel of of Jukkasjärvi is the Homestead Restaurant, which serves delicious a la carte meals. Its log cabin theme, complete with wooden tables and checkered tablecloths, offers a warm, rustic atmosphere. The Ice Hotel season also provides opportune views, form which one can watch the addictive, natural Northern Lights as they illuminate the clear Swedish night sky.
A wining and dining experience at the Ice Hotel of Jukkasjärvi is only dangerous to tourists visiting if they don't carry proper snow attire to avoid freezing. Also, failure to follow instructions from the management of the Ice Hotel when preparing to sleep on the ice beds can expose them to the cold as well. Hence, the management advises tourists to have a bathroom break before sleeping, to avoid doing it at night once tucked in. Another real danger may also come in the form of a brown bear attacks on visitors hunting in the woods. Between 1977 and 2012, the Scandinavian Brown Bear Project reported 31 such attacks on humans.

A foam/micro-spring design with bounce and body-shaping support.
All-foam design offering body-shaping contour and cheeky bounce.
A hybrid mattress that's designed to support every sleeper.
Created from rubber trees, latex mattresses are one of the most natural and hypoallergenic options available today. There are several ways to manufacture latex foams, which affects the feel and environmental impact of the design.
Australia's latex mattresses come in three different varieties: natural, synthetic, or blended latex. Latex is more elastic than memory foam, resulting in a responsive, springy mattress. Although all natural latex is derived from rubber trees, synthetic latex provides similar properties. Some mattresses are constructed from a natural/synthetic latex blend, while others feature 100% natural latex. There are many ways to manufacture this material, but two common methods result in Dunlop latex and Talalay latex.
By far, the most common worry about latex foam relates to "off-gassing" or "VOCs". While all-natural latex is non-toxic, some synthetic blends will release a "new" smell after unpackaging. This means certain chemicals in the foam are breaking down, and it usually disappears after a few weeks. However, natural latex can also have an initial smell, since certain VOCs are naturally-occurring in plants. No matter the type of latex, all mattresses sold in Australia must be non-toxic and meet consumer safety regulations.
How long do latex mattresses last?
Depending on the type of latex, latex mattresses can last approximately 7-15 years. Some sleep experts believe natural latex is more durable than synthetic blends. This is why many mattress companies combine natural and synthetic latex to create long-lasting foam. Most latex mattresses come with 10-year or 15-year warranties to ensure years of comfortable sleep.
What is natural latex foam?
Natural latex is a product of the rubber tree and is naturally processed to create latex foam. After harvesting the latex, manufacturers use either the Dunlop or Talalay method to create a bouncy, soft foam. This involves continuously pouring the latex into one solid block, or adding air to create an even feel. Both methods require minimal resources and processing, making natural latex mattresses one of the most eco-friendly and environmentally-responsible choices.
Who are latex mattresses best for?
Sleepers who enjoy latex mattresses prefer a mattress with more bounce, a faster response, less contour, and an even feel. Latex does not offer the same hug as memory foam, so you won't feel stuck while moving around. This make getting out of bed and switching positions easier. Latex also offers an even compression, so your body feels supported without melting into the mattress.
Latex mattresses are generally cooler than memory foam because they retain less heat. Even though latex is naturally better at cooling, many mattress companies use aerated latex foam to increase air flow. If you sleep hot, latex will help keep you cool in any season.
Are latex mattress okay for people with latex allergies?
Generally, sleepers with latex allergies can use latex mattresses. The foam never comes in direct contact with the sleeper due to layers of fabric, foam, and bedding. If you have a severe latex allergy, you may want to check with a medical professional before buying a latex mattress. Note: Some mattresses allow sleepers to switch layers and adjust firmness. If you buy one of these mattresses, you can come into contact with latex foam.


Relish Magazine has created a well done how-to video on grilling artichokes. Whether you are a fan of artichokes or not, we have to say this a fine and wonderfully choreographed video. Mixed with the perfect music we find ourselves wanted to eat some artichokes. You can find more info on their cooking show here.

In honor of The National Day today.
Yes, it's December 12th, National Ding-A-Ling Day. No word if today was brought to you by Chuck Berry.
Oh, that kind of ding-a-ling.
Don't care for this National Day. Wait until tomorrow when it is National Pick A Pathologist Day.

Speaking of ding-a-ling. If you're headed to the Antarctic, be careful with yours. You don't want Polar Penis.
Cruel winds add to plunging temperatures and threaten to freeze them stiff. Yet so far only unlucky Alex, 26, has been hit by the medical condition, also known as Antarctic Willy.
Alex posted: "We found for some reason I was getting particularly chilly in the nether regions.
"There's a phenomenon called Polar Penis, which sounds hilarious but as it turns out incredibly unpleasant, and really quite painful and cold, so suffering a bit from this morning.
But, we were promised no math in tonight's ONT.
From Newton's mechanical calculations to Einstein's general and special relativity to the baffling indeterminacy of quantum mechanics, the discipline of physics has become increasingly arcane and complex, and less and less governed by orderly laws. This presents a problem for the layperson, who struggles to understand how Newtonian physics, with its predictable observations of physical forces, relates to the parallax and paradox of later discoveries. "If you don't already know physics," says physicist Dominic Walliman in the video above, it's difficult sometimes to see how all of these different subjects are related to each other." So Walliman has provided a helpful visual aid: an animated video map showing the connections between classical physics, quantum physics, and relativity
Bob Dylan accepted the Nobel Prize for Literature over the weekend.
I'm sorry I can't be with you in person, but please know that I am most definitely with you in spirit and honored to be receiving such a prestigious prize. Being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature is something I never could have imagined or seen coming. From an early age, I've been familiar with and reading and absorbing the works of those who were deemed worthy of such a distinction: Kipling, Shaw, Thomas Mann, Pearl Buck, Albert Camus, Hemingway. These giants of literature whose works are taught in the schoolroom, housed in libraries around the world and spoken of in reverent tones have always made a deep impression. That I now join the names on such a list is truly beyond words
Rumor has it that there are some damn fine Morons who know how to get around in the kitchen. So, you know your way around the kitchen? How are you in the shipping and handling department?
Wait for cookies to cool completely before you pack them. You don't want to ruin their texture or encourage bacterial growth.
Pack the cookies in an airtight container, and make sure there's plenty of padding in your package so they don't bounce around and break.
Certain types of cookies are better for shipping than others. Flakey and fragile cookies like macarons, Florentines, and cream-filled sandwich cookies will probably be damaged in transit no matter what. Opt for sturdier cookies like chocolate chip, sugar, and gingerbread.
Please, thank you, excuse me.Just some basic words in your vocabulary. However, it appears that they are not common words. The need for manners.
Has the death penalty gone to high tech? Is there a way to execute someone painlessly? Was the recent Alabama execution botched?

Write Now Right Now-The Blog-Would You Do It Again?
First, our favorite parts. Many of our favorite moments were the planned experiences. Walking a section of the Great Wall without any other tourists was a highlight. Visiting the Terra Cotta warriors and considering the ego of a leader who had them built so people would remember him was overwhelming. Looking at the shattered pieces and realizing the patience needed to recreate these statues was humbling! These experiences had been planned far in advance and lived up to our expectations. There were also some spontaneous favorite moments. Meeting a young local girl in line at Shanghai Disney and trying to communicate about Elsa from Frozen was an unplanned delight. Getting lost on a rainy night in Shanghai while searching for the second tallest building in the world is another unplanned, and now favorite, memory.
Would we do it again? While we will choose other places in the world to visit before returning to China, I would certainly encourage others to take the trip! I would also have ideas on "must see and do" places and experiences for those thinking of visiting China.
As the new school year creeps closer, I find myself reflecting on these same questions as I look back on the past school year. Having been away from school for a month helps me put the past year in better perspective. I've been making a list of "favorite learning engagements" from last year and answering the question: Would you do it again?
Here's a portion of my "things to do again next year" list . . .
· Implement Writer's Notebooks – a definite do again! These notebooks are an invaluable organizational tool for both my students and me. This year I plan to add an Anchor Chart section, where students can keep individual anchor charts for easy access after we have completed them together.
· Expand Student Vocabulary, with a tweak – We have been collecting new vocabulary words in our Writer's Notebooks, but I'm not sure that system is working as well as I had hoped. The students have simply written the words as they found them, resulting in a disorganized list. Next year we are going to organize the words by topic. For example, all the movement words will be collected together. We are also going to study words by word origin or roots, looking for commonalities.
· Read aloud every day – This is my favorite time of day with my students. In our high-tech days, it is so important to expose children to the joy of listening to an engaging book read aloud.
· Follow the spontaneous learning moments – Just like the spontaneous moments that happen when we travel, I look forward to those spontaneous learning moments in the classroom. We never know what comment or thought may turn into a learning moment. We all spend time creating lessons and are eager to share them with our students. It can be difficult to put those aside and spontaneously follow a student question or inquiry. Yet, these unexpected paths can often become our favorite moment of the year!
We would love to hear from you! What items are on your list? What was your favorite part of last year and what are you looking forward to doing again? What goals are you making right now to improve your learning environment?

Welcome to Episode 5 of The Drawing Board, a new podcast by With a Terrible Fate.
On the second episode of this podcast, Dan and I discussed the formative senior projects about video games that we conducted in high school at Phillips Exeter Academy with the support of some exceptional faculty mentors. A couple of weeks ago, just before our presentations at PAX East, we had the opportunity to return to Exeter, sit down with those same mentors, and discuss how our work on video games has evolved since those projects 5 years ago.
Clockwise from top left: Kathleen J. Brownback, Erica Plouffe Lazure, Russell Dwight Weatherspoon, and Thomas F. Ramsey.
We spoke with four of our teachers and mentors: Kathleen J. Brownback, Erica Plouffe Lazure, Russell Dwight Weatherspoon, and Thomas F. Ramsey. We covered everything from our initial senior projects, to the current state of video-game discourse, to the evolving role of video games in education.
Listen in for a view into where With a Terrible Fate came from, and where the study of video games is going.
Thanks to all of our mentors for participating in this conversation with us! We had a wonderful time speaking with you, and we hope to have the chance to represent With a Terrible Fate at Exeter again in the future.


Most business owners have heard it before: if someone runs a company, they'll need liability insurance. However, many don't know what that means or what these policies cover. In this guide, readers will learn the basics of Liability Insurance Policies in The Woodlands TX.
General Liability Insurance: What Is It?
Liability insurance is also known as commercial general business liability coverage. It protects companies' assets and pays for costs incurred if injury or property damage is caused by employees. Liability insurance also pays legal defense and settlement costs in the event of a lawsuit; typically, these include non-monetary losses, punitive damages, and compensatory damages. General liability coverage also protects business owners from liability if they cause damage to a rented property, and it covers claims of misleading advertising, copyright infringement, slander, and libel.
Do All Businesses Need Liability Coverage?
Modern society is very litigious, and even if an owner believes their company will never face a lawsuit, purchasing liability insurance is a sound investment. Yearly premiums range from several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on the owner's coverage needs and line of work. That's much less than the thousands (or even millions) of dollars they'd spend fighting a court case. While general Liability Insurance Policies in The Woodlands TX can be purchased on their own, they may also be included in BOPs or business owner's policies. If an owner has a BOP, they should check their liability coverage limits and buy additional coverage if necessary.
The coverage a business owner needs depends on the work they do and the risks associated with it. For instance, building contractors need more insurance coverage than do consultants or web designers. The business' location is another important factor, as some places award higher damages to personal injury plaintiffs. Talk to a local agent or broker for coverage advice.
Business owners have many responsibilities, but ensuring proper coverage is one of the most important. With general liability insurance, the owner and his or her assets are protected from liability for personal injury and property damage. To learn more, call Insurance Offices Texas or visit them at iotx.com.

Just a few years ago, Gazprom had Europe eating out of its hand. But now, the energy giant -- and Putin's power base -- looks set for hard times.
After years as Eurasia's energy bully, Russia's state-controlled natural gas monopoly, Gazprom, is getting a taste of its own medicine. Even as Gazprom seeks to build the tallest skyscraper in Europe as its new headquarters in St. Petersburg, pressure from Russia's neighbors led to a 15 percent decline in the company's profits last year, eating into the state budget. Moscow's single-minded focus on gas exports in an effort to become, in the words of President Vladimir Putin, an "energy superpower" has crippled its ability to adapt to profound changes in the global energy landscape — from the shale gas revolution in North America to the dynamism of new market players such as Azerbaijan. Having spent the last decade making enemies in Central Europe and Central Asia, Gazprom and Russian decision-makers are now reaping what they have sown.
Policymakers in European capitals could be forgiven for a little schadenfreude right now. Building on the legacy of Soviet gas exports to the Eastern Bloc and parts of Western Europe, Putin and his cohorts in the Kremlin have, for years, used Gazprom as a cudgel in Moscow's relations with European Union member states. Over the past decade, well over a third of EU gas imports have come from Russia, with a number of Eastern European states almost completely dependent on Gazprom. Bulgaria, for example, receives more than 95 percent of the natural gas it consumes from the company. Millions of European consumers shivered through the winters of 2006, 2008, and 2009 when Gazprom cut off supplies in order to squeeze middlemen in Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, and Moldova who had had the temerity to buck Moscow's policies.
On the supply end of the network, Gazprom routinely bought cheap natural gas from producers in the Caspian region and sold it for as much as four times the price in Central Europe. To maintain the racket, Gazprom CEO Alexey Miller and Putin himself actively traveled across Eurasia threatening and cajoling European and post-Soviet leaders to quash alternative pipeline networks put forth by Western companies. Russia continues to pursue a "divide and conquer" strategy with respect to Europe that purposely undermines EU-wide energy directives, such as the Third Energy Package, intended to bring more competition to the market. Meanwhile, Gazprom seeks to isolate entire countries in "energy islands" where consumers are unable to receive gas from sources other than Russia, even during cutoffs.
But in just the last two years, the tide has started to turn. Low energy prices across the globe are allowing consumers to use Russia's "reverse dependence" on European markets against Gazprom. Russia's export options outside Europe are increasingly limited, allowing European consumer to demand better terms. Meanwhile, Central Asia is no longer Moscow's vassal, but has finally emerged as competition for cheap energy, with producers such as Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan not only willing to give consumers (still largely in East and South Asia) a better deal, but without treating them as former colonies to be manipulated.
Gazprom's once-intimidated customers are growing increasingly bold. Last year, seemingly hapless Bulgaria was able to negotiate a 20 percent decrease in the price that it will pay Gazprom for the next 10 years. While it was still a long-term, so-called take-or-pay contract — meaning that Bulgaria agrees to pay for a fixed amount of gas for a certain amount of time, regardless of how much gas its consumers actually require — Sofia was able to add in a renegotiation clause, should circumstances change drastically. This would have been unthinkable in previous years.
The unexpected changes in energy markets have allowed the Bulgarians and others to play hardball with Gazprom. A glut of gas globally, due mainly to unprecedented shale gas production in North America, has driven prices down and freed up volumes around the world to be shipped as liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Europe. The United States is set to export LNG, though that will mostly go to East Asia instead of Europe. In addition, because natural gas has recently replaced coal as a fuel source throughout much of North America, EU member states, many of whom already have well-developed coal-burning infrastructure, are reaping the benefits of excess coal, which allows them to be more flexible when it comes to natural gas dependence. Thanks to this combination of factors, Gazprom has or is in the process of negotiating new contract terms with all its European customers, including the major markets of Germany and Italy.
Meanwhile, the long-stalled efforts to connect European consumers directly to Caspian producers are finally paying off. Building on the experience of the U.S.-backed Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, which since 2005 has brought oil from Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan to the Mediterranean (avoiding Soviet-era pipeline networks through Russia), SOCAR, Azerbaijan's state energy company, is now building a natural gas pipeline network through the Caucasus and Turkey to the borders of the European Union. This network's flagship project, the Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline (TANAP), makes SOCAR the largest foreign investor in Turkey and the arbiter of whether the gas will go from there to Austria's gas hub at Baumgarten through the Nabucco West pipeline or to the western Balkans and Italy through the Trans Adriatic Pipeline. Baku's new clout and direct negotiations with these countries mean that it is eating into traditional Gazprom territory, providing leverage for European decision-makers who in the past had no choice but to kowtow to Moscow.
Further east, Turkmenistan, long a natural gas appendage to Gazprom's network and the source of much of the gas sold in Ukraine, has in the past few years emerged as a player in its own right. With the world's fourth-largest gas reserves, it was inevitable that Turkmenistan would eventually demand the right to determine its own destiny. But Gazprom's executives were slow to read the writing on the wall when the isolated country's government started wide-ranging negotiations with Chinese energy giant CNPC to anchor a vast pipeline network through Central Asia. The pipeline project will not only bring gas to Chinese consumers but also distribute it throughout the region, undermining Gazprom's previous monopoly in energy-poor states like Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. The main artery of CNPC's pipeline network was completed in record time and is now being expanded to include all five post-Soviet Central Asian states, as well as Afghanistan. According to one industry source with whom I spoke, Russian officials were caught flat-footed when their Chinese counterparts told them last year in no uncertain terms that Turkmenistan's energy sector is no longer their turf.
t agreement with CNPC in March, but the nature of the deal revealed Gazprom's faltering clout. Neither a timeline nor volumes have been agreed upon. And where Russia once swaggered into meetings with European energy consumers, Moscow had to send several delegations to Beijing to offer very favorable prices in order for the Chinese to sign on the dotted line.
All this should be embarrassing for Putin and his close advisors — many of them on Gazprom's board — back in Moscow. Instead, however, Miller and Gazprom's leadership have spent millions of dollars on public relations campaigns maligning shale gas as bad for the environment and arguing that Gazprom's old-fashioned, long-term contracts provide stability in an era of market flux. This head-in-the-sand mentality could have domestic political consequences. Gazprom makes up 10 percent of Russian export revenues, so losses leave Putin with fewer resources to spread throughout his patronage network. Russia's resurgence as a great power after the shame and poverty of the tumultuous 1990s is a major pillar of Putin's popularity. But much of that rebound was based on turning Russia into a petrostate, dependent on Gazprom's profits. As the company falters, the state may not be far behind.
If Gazprom is going to continue serving as Putin's primary pawn in the great game of energy geopolitics, it will have to adapt. Acting like a real energy company would be a start. The Peterson Institute for International Economics recently estimated that Gazprom loses up to $40 billion annually due to corruption and waste. It could begin to offer spot-indexed pricing, as opposed to inefficient long-term take-or-pay contracts. It could begin to invest seriously in new technologies, such as fracking and LNG, that have boosted its global competitors. In short, it could begin to respond to the market, as opposed to trying to force its hand.
The Kremlin will almost certainly continue to use Gazprom as a foreign-policy tool — it has few other options — but going forward, the bloated behemoth will deliver diminishing returns in geopolitics, as well as business.


Very few would have been surprised if the Kingston Cataraqui Clippers laid down and died Saturday at Kia Training Ground at Downsview Park.
After all the visitors were crushed 11-0 – that's not a misprint – in an L1 Cup match exactly one week earlier when they came to town to play Toronto FC Academy.
But, on this Saturday, with a league championship on the line, Toronto FC Academy had to work incredibly hard to earn themselves a 3-1 victory over a determined and surprisingly tough Kingston side.
None played better than Clipppers' keeper Navi Sidhu, the same man who allowed all eleven Toronto goals the week before. This time, he made save after save, and was undoubtedly the man of the match.
Kingston's roster featured a a number of players who didn't make the trip the week before. The swirling and bitterly cold winds also helped even out the match for both sides.
In fact, it was just 1-1 at the break, with Kingston opening the scoring just a minute in, after a Jason Massie strike caught the TFCA defence sleeping.
But the rest of the game's goals, and nearly all the chances, belonged to the home side.
Marcos Andres Nunes, who scored a hat-trick last week, scored again this week.
And the goal that wound up giving Toronto FC Academy the championship was actually a Kingston own goal, coming off the head of defender Stefan Szwarek in the seventieth minute. That tally put TFCA up 2-1, before an insurance goal a few minutes later by Alexander Pena put the League1 Ontario title on ice for Toronto FC Academy.
It's been quite a season with five draws to go with ten wins, an unbeaten run that will be tested next Saturday when TFC Academy heads to Windsor to finish its schedule.
Toronto is also first in Group A in Cup play, and will host an L1 Cup Semi-Final on October 16. Should it win its semi-final, Toronto FC Academy will play at BMO Field, in the L1 Cup Final, which is scheduled for Sunday, October 19.
For head coach Michael Stefano, winning the league title in the inaugural League 1 Ontario season was testament to a talented Toronto FC Academy squad.
"It's always good to see your hard work come to fruition. The boys have obviously worked hard for it. It's a goal achieved for them. At the end of the day, the (undefeated season) happens as a result of us going about our business every week," said the coach, as he got the Gatorade treatment on a cold day from his delighted players.
Goalkeeper and captain Phil Di Bennardo was thrilled to be part of a championship and undefeated club – though there is still one game to play.
"It makes me feel great. We come in every day and put in the work and it's great to have success come out of it. We had an objective to be League1 champions and we are happy to get it," he said.
League1 commissioner Dino Rossi was on hand to present the league championship trophy to Toronto FC Academy, and praised their unbeaten season and the inaugural League 1 campaign.
"This has been very successful by almost every measure you could expect. TFC, from start to finish, have been the top team. This is a deserving result. They've been great, a very talented young team. I think they will have a lot of talented young men graduate to the next level, whether it be MLS or another level," said Rossi.
"We have had a lot of good stories in the league this year and I think we have to tout them all. TFC has been the best on-field team, but there have been a lot of good teams. If you look at the standings, it's very tight at the top but Toronto has been the most consistent," he said.
