Many things can motivate us to join a community, but one thing keeps us committed to stay: Relationships. Whether it's strong ties between fellow Club members, between a staff member and a parent or between a volunteer and a student, these relational bonds fuel the daily work of Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond.
Relationships brought Caprichia Moses and her family into the Boys & Girls Clubs fold. Several years ago, she formed a friendship with Jade Tabb, who was working at a YMCA in Richmond. Caprichia's sons, Kevin and Caleb, loved spending time with Jade, and Jade eventually let the family know that she was moving on to a new role at the Northside Club with Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond. The Moses family followed Jade to the Northside Club, and the boys immediately loved being at the Club and creating new relationships there.
Caprichia, a busy single mom who worked in state and local government, was thankful for the ways that her sons, aged 6 and 8 at the time, connected with the Club staff and the numerous opportunities there. "I was eager for them to get engaged and create positive relationships," she says. After the boys' first day at Club, they came home talking eagerly about all of the friends they'd made and all of the activities they'd joined. Kevin, the eldest, was a sports fanatic. He loved having friends to play with who were his own age and skill level. And Caleb, who was just coming out of kindergarten, loved the feeling of empowerment he received from the staff and their guidance with his homework every day.

She was especially grateful for the positive influence of the male staff members on her sons, noting how the male staff intentionally built relationships with Kevin and Caleb. "I was excited to see the level of involvement that the male staff had in my sons' lives, taking their time to invest in them," she says.
The boys, for their part, were thrilled to be Club members. "Over the weekend, they'd say, 'Why can't we go to Club on Saturday?'" she laughs, recalling their enthusiasm. Now, Caprichia and her sons are even more closely connected with the Club, as Caprichia recently joined the staff herself, taking on the role of workforce development coordinator for Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond.
Caprichia began working as a donor relations manager in September 2017, and then in December, she accepted the position of workforce development coordinator, drawing on her strong background in youth development and career enhancement.

With almost 20 years of experience in youth talent, training and career development, Caprichia has worked in various levels of the Virginia state and Richmond local governments. She worked for the city of Richmond for several years and then was recruited to work in the administration of Governor Mark Warner.
Soon after laying the groundwork for the unfolding of the Workforce Investment Act — a federally funded program that aimed to increase the employment, retention and earnings of participants and develop their occupational skills in the commonwealth of Virginia — Caprichia accepted a position to complete the same tasks for the local workforce investment area under the administration of former Virginia governor, then Richmond mayor, L. Douglas Wilder. Under her leadership in youth and workforce development fields, Caprichia created the Mayor's Youth Academy, a comprehensive youth development and workforce-readiness initiative that is still in effect today.
With her familiarity with workforce development from the grassroots to the governmental level, Caprichia eagerly brought her skills and expertise to benefit the young people in metro Richmond's Clubs.
These days, Caprichia stays busy as she builds Ready2Win, the workforce development program for Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond. This spring, the program had a pre-pilot phase, inviting teens to apply and participate, and on June 25, the pilot officially launched.
Ready2Win aims to help students get ready for the real world, whether it's pursuing higher education, post-secondary training, the workforce or the military. Caprichia says that the program aims to channel the passions that Club members already have into opportunities to succeed after graduation. "We want to open up their worlds and let them explore far beyond what has traditionally been available to them," she says.
Students representing all of the Clubs in metro Richmond applied to participate in the Ready2Win pilot, and 23 students, aged 14 to 16, have since joined the program.
The program has featured workshops covering such broad topics as personal and social responsibility, innovation and integrity, with the topic of inclusion up next on the docket. Hands-on experiences reinforce these skills, such as a day playing laser tag, to build leadership and teamwork; a day in an "escape room" to reinforce problem-solving skills; and a culturally reflective walk on the Richmond Slave Trail, promoting social awareness and pride in oneself. Students in Ready2Win also volunteer their time in community service efforts, serving local veterans, children with terminal illnesses and people who are facing homelessness.
The program also gives students modest stipends, as if they were receiving a paycheck, and teaches them how to save and budget, thanks to a curriculum provided by Wells Fargo. Club members learn what it means to earn their own money and how to manage it well.
Caprichia is committed to making Ready2Win an elite ambassadorship program, creating a community of students who are seen as the "cream of the crop" in metro Richmond. She wants to build a cohort of young people who are highly sought after by colleges, employers and other entities throughout the area, whether for internships, full-time employment, motivational presentations or other career and educational opportunities. In the fall, Caprichia expects to open up the program to Club members of all ages, not just teens.
Ready2Win is just one of the ways that Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond is expanding its programs to ensure that all young people in Richmond are ready for whatever life brings their way.
A young man who was a Club member recently graduated from high school. Caprichia got to watch him as he prepared to walk across the stage at graduation. He'd long dreamed of starting a career in nursing, but amid a number of financial difficulties and barriers, that dream seemed like it would be deferred. But thanks to the support from his Club director, his mentor and his Ready2Win family, this promising young man will be entering a nursing program in the fall.
Setting students on a path of success motivates Caprichia in her daily work. She acknowledges that progress can sometimes seem slow and steady, but that's how long-lasting change is created.

With the success of the Create New Statistics campaign and with plans to build a Teen Center under way, she is excited about the opportunities the new center will offer metro Richmond's young people and the ways that the space will build on the success of Ready2Win and other pertinent programs designed for Club members.
"I will do all I can to get them ready, but they will have to decide to become Ready2Win," she adds, noting the values that form the name of the program, which aims to develop metro Richmond teens who are Ready for success, Enthusiastic about their future, Ambitious and affirmed, Determined to succeed, Yielding to the development process, Willing to go beyond the status quo, Intentional about achieving their goals, and Neighborly and productive citizens.

Money for me is not a motivator: Hrithik Roshan
Added by harini on Mar 23, 2012
Hrithik Roshan, who is currently busy playing superhero in 'Krrish 3', said that it was his life long dream to be a superhero.
"I've been emulating superheroes all my life; a recurring childhood dream was to fly. After doing that in my dreams for all these years, it's suddenly coming true in real life," said Hrithik Roshan to a daily.
The actor said that his 6 year old son, Hrehaan, was currently in the same phase and keeps jumping off the stools.
"I had to sit him down and explain the laws of gravity," laughed the actor.
Last year during the shooting of the movie Hrithik Roshan had a major accident on sets which resulted in knee injury and a double slip disc. Watching his son pain, Hrithik Roshan's father and producer of the movie Rakesh Roshan almost shelved the project permanently.
"I was in a dark place that was full of negative vibes," he said.
The actor consulted friends, therapists, surfed the Internet and finally connected with trainer Kris Genthin and his nutritionist wife Marcia Johnson, who helped him, get back in shape.
The actor, who called 'Greek God' due to his drop dead gorgeous looks and body, said that he had no attachment to the tag 'Greek God'.
"No, there's no attachment to the image of a Greek God because I know it's all transitory. For me, this body is just a torso, a pair of hands and legs and a stomach that everyone has. The idea is to use food and the gym as tools to sculpt a body and lifestyle, which can benefit me professionally and personally," he said.
The actor is planning on taking a long and much needed vacation once the movie is completed. He said that during his vacation he plans on sharing the know-how with other health enthusiasts soon.
"Once we wrap up Krrish 3 in August-September, I'll take time off and work on that. For now, it's about dreaming big with Krrish and Rohit Mehra (name of Krrish's father in the film), and about completing the trilogy that began with Koi Mil Gaya (2003)," he said.
The actor, whose last movie 'Agneepath' was a blockbuster hit and earned him his entry into 100 crores club, said that he was glad of the appreciation coming his way.
"I'm happy. Though I have started understanding the business now, I don't get into figures. Money for me is not a motivator, it's the creativity that counts," he said.
"I'm just elated with the response my portrayal of Vijay Dinanath Chauhan has elicited. I've had to work hard for a year-and-a-half to enter this club, but it was worth it. It's reaffirmed my belief in the power of a good script and a director's vision, while nullifying my reservations about remakes," he concluded.

Grassroots Advocacy Training and Recognition 2013 - My Work. My Choice.
We Are All Connected - ODC, Inc.
Craig Culver "A Case Study of Successful Outcomes"
"Making the Business Case for Hiring People with Disabilities: Regional and Local Perspectives."


NEW YORK (AP) -- Casey Mize has dazzled scouts for months with his impressive arsenal of pitches.
While Mize has long been the favorite to be the top selection, he's not necessarily the type of no-doubt, sure-thing prospect Stephen Strasburg (2009) and Bryce Harper (2010) were considered in their draft years. Florida righty Brady Singer and Georgia Tech catcher Joey Bart are also possibilities to have their names called first by Commissioner Rob Manfred at MLB Network studios in Secaucus, New Jersey.
For the Tigers, it's the first time they have the No. 1 pick since they took Rice pitcher Matt Anderson in 1997.
"I don't know if there's a can't-miss," Tigers general manager Al Avila recently told reporters. "From draft to draft, you try to say, `Who's that can't-miss?' There's been plenty of can't-misses that have missed, as you all know, in the history of the draft, but there are good players in this draft.
"And there's going to be players in this draft who are going to get to the big leagues, and there will be players in this draft who may end up being All-Stars or maybe even franchise players. And they come from all places in the draft."
The 2018 First-Year Player Draft will span three days as it has since 2009. It will be held at MLB Network's Studio 42 in Secaucus, N.J.
The Tampa Bay Rays have five selections on the draft's first day, tied with Kansas City for most in the majors. They will pick Nos. 16, 31, 32, 56 and 71 overall. No. 31 is a compensation pick for Alex Cobb, who departed as a free agent, and No. 32 for unsigned 2017 selection Drew Rasmussen.
The Atlantic Coast Conference player of the year led the conference in hitting with a .359 average and topped the Yellow Jackets with a .632 slugging percentage, 79 hits, 16 home runs, 55 runs scored and a .471 on-base percentage. Bart had a 16-game hitting streak this season and has terrific power potential at the next level. He's also one of the country's best defensive catchers, with a .992 fielding percentage on the season while throwing out 12 of 33 would-be base stealers.
Bohm is one of the top offensive players in the draft, hitting .339 with 16 homers -- the most by a Wichita State player since 2004 -- and 55 RBIs with 14 doubles and 39 walks. He also showed a knack for hitting in the clutch by setting a school record with three grand slams this year, and led the team with 10 go-ahead RBIs. Bohm will likely play either third or first base at the next level.
India has been an offensive force for the defending College World Series champions, hitting .364 with 18 homers and 45 RBIs through Saturday's NCAA Tournament regional games. He's the 12th player in school history to post 20 or more homers, 100 or more RBIs and 30 or more stolen bases in his career. The SEC player of the year also had a 24-game hitting streak earlier this season. He's considered athletic enough to play several spots around the infield.
Liberatore is considered by many to be the top left-hander in this year's draft class because of a three-pitch repertoire that has a chance to special. He hits the low- to mid-90s with his fastball, and while it's not the best heater in the crop, the big lefty has terrific command and mixes in a knee-buckling curveball and solid changeup -- along with a still-developing slider.
His slight physical build makes him look anything but one of college baseball's best players, but he's very much in the mold of similarly vertically challenged big league All-Stars Jose Altuve and Dustin Pedroia. Madrigal is considered by many to be the best overall hitter in the draft. He rebounded nicely for the Beavers after missing half the season with a broken left wrist. He was hitting .406 with three homers and 32 RBIs and just five strikeouts in 133 at-bats while helping lead Oregon State to the NCAA Tournament super regionals.
The likely No. 1 overall pick went undrafted out of high school three years ago, developing into a potential big league ace while in college. Mize has the mound combination that makes scouts drool -- and batters consistently miss. He's got solid command of four pitches, including a fastball that hovers in the mid-90s. But it's his outstanding command and wicked splitter/changeup -- possibly the best in the draft -- that push him to the top of most teams' wish lists. He was 10-5 with a 2.95 ERA and 151 strikeouts and just 12 walks in 109 2/3 innings while helping the Tigers to the NCAA Tournament.
The Gators ace and SEC pitcher of the year has been in the discussion since last year to be the No. 1 overall pick in this year's draft with his mid-90s fastball and solid slider. A slow start and recent hamstring issue, combined with a terrific year by Auburn's Casey Mize, likely have the Florida righty instead going within the top five selections. Singer showed he was healthy again by going seven strong innings in an NCAA Tournament win over Jacksonville on Saturday. He's 11-1 with a 2.27 ERA and 98 strikeouts and 19 walks in 95 innings.
Stewart has a ridiculously deceptive curveball that MLB.com rates as the best in the entire draft, and he combines it with a mid-90s fastball that he turned up to 98 mph in some outings. If not for Auburn's Casey Mize and Florida's Brady Singer, Stewart could have been a strong candidate to be the first prep righty in draft history to go No. 1 overall.


You know...when you wanted Poland to win WWIII against Germany supporting the Brits in their biggest stupidity was rather an own goal!
Is that really your only "argument"? Because you are repeating it...and it get's boring...try a bit harder.
No need to Sausage man.....you have been exposed for what you are.
Do you have a problem with my arguments or that they come from a German? I'm totally sure you can find them being made by a non-German the same way. They are pure facts and logic quite internationally.
Oh and what exactly is the difference between "German arrogance" and...say...."British arrogance"...or "French arrogance"...or "Marsian arrogance" ?
That tired, old "Two world wars and one world cup"? How cute.
WW1 ... bailed out by the Americans. WW2 ... bailed out by the Americans, Poles and Soviets. 1966 ... bailed out by a Soviet referee. LOL!
BTW,latest poll says another 500,000 increase to the Brexit vote inThe UK......we don't care.....and in the long term,Germany will suffer big time.
The war is long over, you know...well...poor guy, can't get over it!
Just a hint to end this non-discussion....if you really see this as a war with Germany, them "arrogant Germans"...the MUCH smarter move would had been to take over the EU from the inside, taking the leadership of Europe away from Berlin, bringing it back to London, where it of course belongs...a Churchill would had achieved that...but now? You waved the white flag, declared defeat and left the battlefield like losers!
As I said,I'm cool with it.
But why are you getting so upset?????
And why do you claim british historical successes for yourself, as you are a Pole only living in GB?
The UK owes its' past successes to their pragmatism. They knew which fights were worth picking up, and what was in their long-term interests. Sadly this ability has been lost to them and know they have themselves being lead into perhaps their biggest blunder in their modern history.
And it's not Little Britain,it's Great Britain......something you will have to get used to again..... Gutte Nacht Freunde!
Good night, and sweet dreams of future glory. You are in for a rough awakening.
Because with the loss of The UK it means that the only main financial contributors to The EU are Germany and France.
Glad to see the back of it next March.
No, what you are is a EUROPEAN....a case in point for all of my argumentation. We all are EUROPEANS...the last decades have brought people together like no other.
But that is the reality of the future, Europeans wandering freely, settling down, living and working where they want, mixing...the european identity is developing slowly, that's why we have a good shot to become one Europe, and we have to act as one.
Of course Europeans watching the continent through the prisms of gone times, still fighting the old wars are not helping. Here the Poles...there the Brits...over there the Germans...that's hopefully a thing of the past. That's why the whole Brexit is a thing of the past...but people living in the past are the losers of tomorrow...you can call it "german arrogance" all you want, it's still true.
What are you gonna tell THEM? Many of them are born here, identify with Germany or have a least "mixed loyalties".....do you wish them the worst too? Would you blame them for their "german arrogance too" because they see and prefer the freedoms the EU brings them?
Especially in Berlin "scratch a German and you find a Pole".
Don't you get how surreal and ridiculous your "argumentation" based solely on nationality and past wars has become?
I quite like your dream of Europe......yes,we are all Europeans....we share many things......but we can still be independent European states and STILL support and help each other.
The lies were a big problem for us Brits....EEC,EC and then EU.....we knew we were being lied too and didn't want to be a part of a United States of Europe......USA speaks one language. ....are Germans prepared to accept English as their national language?
No,I'm sure they are not,and why should they?
and STILL support and help each other.
Look at a map....without the EU we are back to square one...it's a few biggies and alot of tinies...who will be the winner? I tell you, it won't be us Europeans!
And if you hate that "german arrogance" now, what will it be without the EU? Germany the lone biggest biggie of them all...there will be alliances...those on the side of Germany...or France...or even Britain...and up the walls go...the fight starting.
Do we really have to go through all that again?
And Spain. And Italy. The Beneluxcountries and so on. As a typical Brexiteer, you are exaggerating the Uks' importance to the EU.
What of my post was arrogant? Pointing out that the UK was always very pragmatic is hardly anything surprising, you always were when choosing your battles. And every possible forecast indicates that Brexit will harm British position in the world.
You should stop seeing the world in stereotypes. There is no other alliance between two countries of that size in the world. France and Germany share a very close alliance, and if anything our cooperation deepens.
You behave like a typical Brexiteer. You have no solid argument why you believe Brexit will be success, you disregard the looming problems, and you justify it with an outdated and jingoistic view on Europe.
You do not need one language to succeed. India has roughly 50 (without checking). I have no doubt that English will be the working language of Europe, and there is nothing wrong with that.
PPS: The german football team just got totally humiliated in Russia...if that wasn't a knock down of our "german arrogance" than what is!
Slogans like "Pure Poland, White Poland!" are hardly open to interpretation.
Except that's not what the eu commie globalists said, I believe it was that troll with a train wreck for a face verhofstadt or the other unelected commie juncker. He said 60k fascists in Warsaw those were his words.
And yes numerous outlets including german ones like dw and a uni study PROVE that migrants caused crime to spike namely violent crimes. Perhaps there's less in 2017 and 2018 than the year before, but it is a FACT that crime has gone up since the migrants flowed to germany, as DW points out.
According to the study, which was conducted by the Zurich University of Applied Sciences and paid for by Germany's Ministry of Family Affairs, police witnessed an increase of 10.4 percent in reported violent crimes in 2015 and 2016. More than 90 percent of the increase (not of total violent crimes) was said to be attributable to migrants.
See that, 90% of the 10% increase is because of migrants. But maybe you should tell zurich university to stop lying.
So great maybe crime overall is down in 2017 2018 but it's still higher than it was before the migrant crisis but the amount of rapes, terrorism, knife attacks etc increased from before the migrant crisis and Merkel welcoming all the third world witch doctors and mud hut engineers.
Second, yes there were absolutely instances were girls were told not to wear skirts for fear of provoking the migrants and for the girls safety - namely to not be raped as in the cucked mind it's better to take away freedoms and make the citizens already there suffer and change their way of life instead of not taking in migrants who can't control their urges.
Only in germany... Diversity Macht Frei!!!
There is no other alliance between two countries of that size in the world.
New alliances and new rivalries are made regularly. Most people wouldn't of thought Turkey is posturing closer to Russia (even militarily) and China due to the tariffs despite being in nato. Neither could most people imagine saudi arabia and israel being allies.
You have no solid argument why you believe Brexit will be success, you disregard the looming problems, and you justify it with an outdated and jingoistic view on Europe.
If it means UK having it's independence and sovereignty rather than be a vassal for the EU and the leaders of it that no Pole or Brit voted for thags a great success right there.
You know back in the late 80s there were poles, ukrainians, Slovaks, kazakhs etc who thought leaving the USSR and becoming independent would be a bad thing. They too were concerned about economic stagnation and rightfully so. All their economies contracted in the years after ussr collapsed and when they declared themselves sovereign and independent. For some countries they experienced a big economic slowdown even for 7 10 plus years or even longer. Polands economy fell by something like 10% the yeae poland went from prl to democracy. Yet few would go back in time and say we shouldn't of left and stkll be beholden to Moscow. Well it's the same with UK and EU. The voters showed that they would take economic burden for a few years to be free of Brussels and gradually repair their economy and currency albeit this time by themselves without unelected commisars meddling and tons of rules and regulations.
None of those are nearly as deep as the alliance between France and Germany. Which was my original response to Miloslaw claim that the French and Germans distrusted each other.
If the Brexit voters voted for something like early 90s Poland then they really are in for a shock - I can't imagine the new Wembley being turned into something like X-Leica used to be !
It is a ridiculous comparison - the USSR and Poland were both bankrupt in 1989. Neither Britain nor the EU are and they have high standards of living and Britain had good growth until 2016.
Most of the Brexit voters did not vote for either short term or long term economic decline - it was mentioned nowhere in the leave campaigns lit or broadcasts. Many of them though the gift was either lying or scaremongering about the effects. A large number voted against immigration and another group voted for the lie that it would save them money that will be spent on the health service.
Again - please define what you mean by a "few years"
Your stats are meaningless without looking at what countries get out of The EU.
It clearly shows that Spain,Italy and Belgium take more than they contribute.
Even France takes more than she puts in!!
The only major net contributors are Germany,UK,NL,Sweden and Denmark.
Actually probably closer to 2 3 plus centuries. The British even fought 2 wars to keep pushing drugs onto the Chinese.
I said modern China Dirk. I'm aware of their past history. Ever heard of Hong Kong?
Do you mean the East Indian Trading Company.
The East India Company, not Indian - and no, I don't.
And yes, there is a trade deficit but the Chinese market is opening up to imports. There is a demand for goods and services from Western Europe. Would you believe that Ireland has a huge trade balance in our favour, a few billion euros from our business with China. So if little Ireland can do it, no problem for the UK. The UK doesn't need the EU to make it a credible business partner. I'll be sorry to see them leave the EU while we're still in it, but Britain will be fine. They'll weather the storm and come through ok.
France is a net contributor both according to your table and to all other info. In some years France has contributed more than then the UK.
Italy is as well a net contributor according to your table.
You are right,I thought the x marked contributions but it is net contributions.
OK,so I read the chart wrong.
But Belgium is not a net contributor and most members of The EU take out more than they put in.
Only Germany,UK and France make large net contributions.
On that basis you have Germany, UK, France Netherlands Sweden circa 250 million people which is roughly half of the blocks population.
Is that so different from London funding the north of England? Or from New York funding Mississippi ?
In any case as I have said many times it is incorrect just look at it as a zero sum game based on contributions. The trade and tax benefits far away the governments contributions - You are about to find that out, or rather your descendants will as they will be the people who have to foot the bill.
No, his descendants won't because he's not British. Go figure.........as he'd say himself. Now, when have you ever heard a Brit use that expression? But who on this forum uses it regularly?? Bells ringing yet?
Someone will still have to make up the UK's contribution when we leave and Germany will not want to lose it's biggest export market.
Long term we will be fine.
I am exactly what I say I am,an Anglo Brit.
How many Yanks would know about "County Kilburn"??
"Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner"...............Lol!
You are awful,but I like you!
and Germany will not want to lose it's biggest export market.
The preservation of the Common market and EU take precedence over any consideration Germany might have over the EU. German companies have already signalized the chancellor that this is much more in their long-term interest.
Btw the UK is Germany's 4th largest trading partner.
It is in the end up to the UK whether it wants a deal or not.
The UK is not Germany's biggest export market - both the US and France are considerably larger. In any case there is insufficient time now to achieve anything meaningful before March, mainly due to the idleness of the Brexit ministers who seems more focused on leadership battles than even half preparing the country for the disaster they have created.
The UKs contribution will of course have to be made up by other countries, The UK has a parallel problem - now to tell t be farmers and regions that were EU beneficiaries what will happen to subsititure their payment.


Copyright is an interesting subject when it comes to photography there are always arguments over who owns what and artistic license. And of course to confuse things even more there are rumours and speculation over copyright laws and to some extent etiquette.
The most popular view on photography copyright is that if the photograph hasn't been paid for then there is no copyright violation taking place. This is not correct, although it is very difficult to pursue damages in this case.
Another common mistake in copyrite is that you have to label or imprint your name or copyrite symbol to actually have copyrite this is also incorrect since 1989. If you are the original photographer then the image holds your copyright and you have the rights to the image whether it is labelled or not. This also applies if you wanted to use someone elses image even if it is not watermarked.
When you take the photos the images are yours a lot of photographers don't even give away the images just the prints so they cannot be reproduced as easily, I have never done this as I am sympathetic to the client and the mark up a lot of photographers make on the prints.
Although recently I have come across a situation with a client where they have dictated the use of the images. Forbidding me to use the images online or for my portfolio. I gave the client the disc so they can print as many images as they like but the client does not own the copyright even if they have paid for the images.
In this case I took the images off the internet for now as a gesture of goodwill but I think I'm going to have to be harsher with clients in the future and not give away the images and charge for prints instead.

Nine projects receive $18 million to advance technology for natural gas vehicles
Arkansas Transportation ReportEnergy
by Talk Business & Politics staff (staff2@talkbusiness.net) March 7, 2019 12:53 pm 217 views
The U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) on Wednesday (March 6) announced it selected nine projects to advance technologies for medium- and heavy-duty natural gas vehicles. The projects will receive $18 million for research to diversify transportation energy use, and the money will come from the Department of Energy, the California Energy Commission and the Southcoast Air Quality Management District.
The projects will focus on reducing the total cost of ownership of natural gas vehicles, increase vehicle efficiency, decrease air pollution and advance technology to increase the use of more affordable medium- and heavy-duty natural gas engines and vehicles.
"Leveraging the technical expertise of industry partners can have a powerful impact on transportation technologies," said Johney Green, associate lab director for Mechanical and Thermal Engineering Sciences at NREL. "Innovation that can change the paradigm for energy use in transportation is going to come by bringing together researchers from several areas. We are looking forward to partnering with these researchers to develop breakthrough (natural gas vehicle) technology."
The nine selected projects will complement the Department of Energy's Vehicle Technologies Office research started in fiscal year 2017. Following are the selected projects:
Cummins Inc. of Columbus, Ind., will develop a natural gas specific combustion design using optimized in-cylinder charge motion and cooled exhaust gas recirculation. Goals include an up to 20% system cost reduction, 10% improvement in cycle average and peak brake thermal efficiency, and have torque similar to diesel engines.
Gas Technology Institute of Des Plaines, Ill., will develop a smart fueling system, including a smart vehicle and dispenser, a full fill algorithm and cost-effective gas pre-cooling. In a separate project, the institute will develop spark ignited natural gas engine with nearly zero emissions that will meet 2027 greenhouse gas targets for class 6 vocational vehicles.
Michigan Technological University of Houghton, Mich., will study the compression ignition of directly injected natural gas, enabling the development of mono-fuel natural gas internal combustion engine technology.
Southwest Research Institute, of San Antonio, Texas, will develop a hybrid medium-duty truck using an advanced natural gas spark-ignited engine. A hybrid drivetrain system will be integrated into the truck.
Transient Plasma Systems Inc., of Torrance, Calif., along with Argonne National Laboratory, will develop a transient plasma ignition system to enable stable ignition of natural gas and air mixtures.
US Hybrid Corp., of Torrance Calif., will develop a fully integrated and optimized natural gas, plug-in hybrid class 8 vehicle using the Cummins 9-liter near-zero emission engine. Class 8 is the largest truck class. The project also includes a two-year study in port drayage operations.
The University of Alabama will develop a natural gas dual fuel heavy-duty engine that will conform to existing and future emissions standards.
The University at Buffalo will develop an after-treatment system for future natural gas vehicles using palladium-based catalysts.

Analysis of Helichrysum (Immortelle) Chemistry, Antioxidant Activity, and Chemotaxonomy
Traditionally, helichrysum (immortelle; Helichrysum italicum, Asteraceae) has been used for the treatment of scars and cuts, as well as used as a liver stimulant and diuretic. The essential oil of helichrysum has been found to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, fungicidal, and astringent effects. As an emollient and fragrance in the cosmetic and perfume industry, the chemical composition of helichrysum essential oil has been somewhat characterized. The aim of this study was to further characterize the chemical content and antioxidant activity of helichrysum aerial parts and to assess the chemotaxonomy of the H. italicum taxa.
The flowering aerial parts of helichrysum (H. italicum ssp. italicum) were collected in May 2011, near Valdanos, Montenegro. The air-dried aerial parts of the plant were extracted with 45% ethanol and dried. The air-dried flowering upper parts of helichrysum were submitted to hydrodistillation to produce the essential oil.
The essential oil was characterized by using chromatography and mass spectrometry techniques. Principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis (CA) was used to compare the main chemical constituents identified in this study with 16 different H. italicum taxa. The dried ethanol extract was dissolved in an aqueous solution for analysis of total phenolics and flavonoids. Both the essential oil and the ethanol extract were assessed for antioxidant activity using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The ethanol extract was also evaluated for inhibition of hydroxyl radical (•OH) generation.
The essential oil yield was found to be 0.15 ± 0.02%. A total of 27 compounds were identified, which represented 96.1% of the total oil composition. Most of the compounds were oxygenated monoterpenes (43.9%) and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (41.2%). [Note: There are discrepancies between the article text and the data in Table 1, which lists these as 43.1% and 42.2%, respectively.] The major compounds found in the oil were neryl acetate (28.2%), neryl propionate (9.1%), γ-curcumene (17.8%), and ar-curcumene (8.3%). [Note: There are discrepancies for three of these compounds among the abstract, article text, and data in Table 1, which lists these as neryl acetate (29.2%), neryl propionate (10.1%), and γ-curcumene (18.8%).] Other compounds found included α-selinene (3.9%), isoitalicene (3.2%), thymol (2.8%), and α-cedrene (2.4%). These concentrations are consistent with previous reports for this plant subspecies.
PCA indicated that H. italicum ssp. italicum from Greece, H. italicum ssp. serotinum from the Iberian Peninsula, and plant material collected from the region of former Yugoslavia could all be clearly differentiated from one another based on different dominant chemical components. Helichrysum italicum ssp. italicum and H. italicumssp. microphyllum were phylogenetically similar and had similar dominant chemical components. These and other taxa consisting of the main chemical components (e.g., neryl acetate) were found to represent four chemotypes. Two of these chemotypes had subchemotypes. CA indicated similar results in terms of the differentiation of H. italicum ssp. italicum from Greece and H. italicum ssp. serotinum from the Iberian Peninsula. The other taxa were classified in a similar way as that found by PCA, but with some differences, especially for the italicum subspecies.
The yield of the aqueous ethanol extract was 19.77%. The total phenolics and total flavonoids of this extract were found to be 31.97 ± 1.42 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g of dry extract and 20.68 ± 0.66 mg quercetin equivalents (QE)/g of dry extract, respectively. The radical scavenging capacity (RSC) of the ethanol extract and the essential oil was dose-dependent. In terms of DPPH RSC, the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was significantly lower (more effective) for the ethanol extract (0.99 µg/ml) compared to the essential oil (1.76 mg/ml) (P value not given). [Note: Table 3 lists the essential oil IC50 as 1.37 mg/ml.] The extract had results that were similar to propyl gallate and quercetin dihydrate. Only the ethanol extract was evaluated for •OH scavenging capacity (IC50 = 26.47 µg/ml), but the RSC was significantly less effective compared to its DPPH RSC (P value not given).
The chemical constituents identified from the essential oil of helichrysum aerial parts in this study are consistent with reports assessing the main chemical components of this plant subspecies. A chemotaxonomic analysis suggests that different regions of the world can affect the chemistry of the essential oil. The authors recommend classifying the species further based on these chemical differences. The authors also indicate that helichrysum extracts and essential oils may be effective natural antioxidants for foodstuff and pharmaceuticals. Further studies should be conducted on how differences in chemical composition may affect biological activity, fragrance, and other qualities of the helichrysum extracts and essential oils.

Hermanus Johannes (Herman) van Wissen (Groningen, 27 december 1910 - aldaar, 23 april 2000) was een Nederlandse architect en kunstschilder.

Biografie
Van Wissen was zoon van de architect A.L. van Wissen (1878-1955), die onder meer het gemeentehuis van Uithuizermeeden ontwierp. Van Wissen heeft opleidingen gevolgd aan de HTS-bouwkunde in Groningen, het Kunsthistorisch Instituut Rome en het Grafisch Centrum in Groningen. In de jaren '30 was hij leerling van Jan Derksen Staats (schilderen) en Anne Huitema (grafische technieken).

Als schilder werkte Van Wissen vooral met Siberisch krijt, aquarel, tempera en olieverf. Hij schilderde vooral landschappen in een figuratief-expressionistische stijl. Van Wissen was lid van de kunstkring 'De Regenboog' in Groningen en (bestuurs)lid van de Groninger kunstkring De Ploeg. Hij maakte studiereizen naar Griekenland, Hongarije, Israël, Joegoslavië, Oostenrijk, Rome en de Verenigde Staten.

In 1946 ontwierp Van Wissen een verzetsmonument voor Groningen in de vorm van een poort, dat werd geplaatst op het R.K. Kerkhof aan de Hereweg. Als architect kreeg hij na de Tweede Wereldoorlog veel opdrachten voor woningbouw. In de tweede helft van de jaren '50 kreeg de katholieke Van Wissen vooral opdrachten voor het ontwerpen van kerken.

Van Wissen werd na zijn pensionering als architect opgevolgd door zijn oudste zoon Ad. Zoon Driek (1943-2010) werd in 2005 uitgeroepen tot Dichter des Vaderlands, zoon Jan van Wissen (1945) is tuin- en landschapsarchitect.

Bouwwerken

Trivia
Van Wissen was in 1959 als architect betrokken bij bouwwerkzaamheden in Helpman. Er werd daarbij een urn gevonden, die werd gedateerd in de tijd van de Grote Volksverhuizing. Na de dood van Van Wissen hebben zijn erfgenamen de urn in 2004 geschonken aan het Groninger Museum.

Q: DotNetOpenAuth Oauth 2, what to do with code response? I am working on authorizing a LinkedIn app for users in our web application. In the base its using angularjs with a .NET web api backend on .NET 4.5.2.
I did get it to work until the callback. Here is the code:
public string GetAuthenticationUrl(string context, string redirectUrl)
{
        if(context == null)
            throw new ArgumentException(nameof(context));
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(redirectUrl))
            throw new ArgumentException(nameof(redirectUrl));

        var appContext = _applicationContextProvider.GetLinkedInApplicationContext();
        var linkedIn = new UserAgentClient(new AuthorizationServerDescription
        {
            TokenEndpoint = new Uri(appContext.AccessTokenEndpoint),
            AuthorizationEndpoint = new Uri(appContext.AuthorizationEndpoint),
            ProtocolVersion = ProtocolVersion.V20
        }, appContext.ClientId, appContext.ClientSecret);

        var target = linkedIn.RequestUserAuthorization(null, context, new Uri(redirectUrl));

        return target.AbsoluteUri;
    }

which returns a Url i can use to go to LinkedIn.
I authorize the application and get redirected successfully to my redirectUrl where i get a code and a state.
but what do i do next to request the access token?
public void Confirm(string state, string code)
{
// ?
}

I use dotnetopenauth 4.3
best reagrds
Jonas

A: i figured it out. So for future adventurers:
public void Confirm(string context, string code)
    {
        if (context == null)
            throw new ArgumentException(nameof(context));
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(code))
            throw new ArgumentException(nameof(code));

        var appContext = _applicationContextProvider.GetLinkedInApplicationContext();
        var linkedIn = new UserAgentClient(new AuthorizationServerDescription
        {
            TokenEndpoint = new Uri(appContext.AccessTokenEndpoint),
            AuthorizationEndpoint = new Uri(appContext.AuthorizationEndpoint),
            ProtocolVersion = ProtocolVersion.V20
        }, appContext.ClientId, appContext.ClientSecret)
        {
            ClientCredentialApplicator = ClientCredentialApplicator.PostParameter(appContext.ClientSecret)
        };

        var auth = linkedIn.ProcessUserAuthorization(new Uri($"http://fake.url?code={code}"), new AuthorizationState
        {
            Callback = new Uri("<addd original return_url here from code request>")
        });
    }

St. Thomas History Lesson: Fact, Fiction and Jewish Grandmas
It's funny how you learn about the place you live. If you grow up somewhere, perhaps you learn the folktales and history of your home through your parents and grandparents. When you move to somewhere new, you don't often get to appreciate the people and events that have come before you to their fullest extent. The history of the Caribbean is rich and deep, and we got just a tiny taste of it this past weekend.
My book club read Alice Hoffman's "The Marriage of Opposites" and it was fascinating! While the book was fiction, the roots of the story were in the history of impressionist artist Camille Pissarro (born and raised on St. Thomas) and his Jewish family. It was mostly about his mother, of which very little is known, but Hoffman weaves a compelling love story and island history lesson together to create a beautiful vision of St. Thomas in a bygone era. The St. Thomas Synagogue hosted Alice Hoffman for a presentation and reception featuring some of Pissarro's work, and some members of my book club and I got to attend. I also got to meet Hoffman and have her sign my book, which is always a treat for this book nerd! The book signing was a bit chaotic; picture a crowded room full of Jewish grandmas all pushing you to get your book signed quickly so they could get their armful of books signed for everyone they knew that couldn't make it.

On Saturday Dan and I got up early, took a little dinghy over to Hassel Island for the "locals" hiking tour. Led by a member of the St. Thomas Historical Trust, we hiked just under three miles and learned about the island's rich history and connection to St. Thomas.

Indian Cement Industry: an overview
India is the second largest producer of cement in the world. The production of cement in India has increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7 per cent to reach 272 million tonnes (MT) in the period 2006–2013. It is expected to touch 407 MT by 2020.
India's potential in infrastructure is vast. It has the capacity to become the world's third largest construction market by 2025, adding 11.5 million homes a year to become a US$ 1 trillion a year market, according to a study by Global Construction Perspectives and Oxford Economics. This opens up a tremendous window of opportunity for the country's cement industry.
Notwithstanding its current position one of the leaders in cement production, India's riches in the sector remain somewhat untapped. "Lafarge's India business has been very successful and the country is among the top 10 markets globally for Lafarge. But going forward, we should rank higher because of the potential of the Indian market," says Mr Martin Kriegner, CEO of the Indian branch of the world's largest cement manufacturer, Lafarge.
The Indian cement sector is expected to witness positive growth in the coming years, with demand set to increase at a CAGR of more than 8 per cent in the period FY 2013-14 to FY 2015-16, according to the latest report titled 'Indian Cement Industry Outlook 2016' by market research consulting firm RNCOS. The report further observed that India's southern region is creating the maximum demand for cement, which is expected to increase more in future.
The cement and gypsum products sector has attracted foreign direct investments (FDI) worth US$ 2,656.29 million in the period April 2000–August 2013, according to data published by the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP).
Prism Cement Ltd has become the first Indian company to get the Quality Council of India's (QCI) certification for its ready-mix concrete (RMC) plant in Kochi, Kerala. The company received the certification from Institute for Certification and Quality Mark (ICQM), a leading Italian certification body authorised to oversee QCI compliance.
UltraTech Cement, an Aditya Birla Group Company, has acquired the 4.8 million tonne per annum (MTPA) Gujarat unit of Jaypee Cement Corp for Rs 3,800 crore (US$ 595.61 million).
ACC Ltd plans to invest Rs 3,000 crore (US$ 470.22 million) to expand its capacity by nearly 4 MT a year in three eastern region states, over the next three years.
Reliance Cements Co Pvt Ltd will set up a 3 MTPA grinding unit at an estimated cost of Rs 600 crore (US$ 94.04 million). The unit is likely to come up at Raghunathpur in Purulia, West Bengal.
Reliance Cement Co, a special purpose vehicle (SPV) of Reliance Infrastructure Ltd, is commissioning its first 5 MTPA plant in Madhya Pradesh. The project has been implemented at a cost of approximately Rs 3,000 crore (US$ 470.22 million).
Zuari Cement plans to set up a cement grinding unit at Auj (Aherwadi) and Shingadgaon villages in Solapur, Maharashtra. The new unit will have a production capacity of 1 MTPA and is expected to be operational by the second quarter of 2015.
JSW Steel has acquired Heidelberg Cement India's 0.6 MTPA cement grinding facility in Raigad, Maharashtra, for an undisclosed amount.
Giving impetus to the market, the Indian government plans to roll out public-private partnership (PPP) projects worth Rs 1 trillion (US$ 15.67 billion) over the next six months. The Principal Secretary in the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) will monitor these projects.
Also, the steering group appointed by Dr Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister of India, to accelerate infrastructure investments, has set deadlines for the awarding of projects such as Mumbai rail corridor and Navi Mumbai Airport, among others.
The Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Vasavdatta Cement, a company with its plant in Karnataka. The firm would use the plastic waste collected by the state agencies and village panchayats from Goa as fuel for its manufacturing plant.
Road Ahead
The globally-competitive cement industry in India continues to witness positive trends such as cost control, continuous technology upgradation and increased construction activities.
Furthermore, major cement manufacturers in India are progressively using other alternatives such as bioenergy as fuel for their kilns. This is not only helping to bring down production costs of cement companies, but is also proving effective in reducing emissions.
With the ever-increasing industrial activities, real estate, construction and infrastructure, in addition to the various Special Economic Zones (SEZs) being developed across the country, there is a demand for cement.
It is estimated that the country requires about US$ 1 trillion in the period FY 2012-13 to FY 2016-17 to fund infrastructure such as ports, airports and highways to boost growth, which promises a good scope for the cement industry.

Our homes are our shelters and our protection – but they are also the places we feel we can belong. We nurture ourselves and the people close to us here. We create havens from the world, so that we can then go out into it and engage with other people, and the challenges and rewards of our environment.
There are, of course, many different ideas about what makes a good house. Depending on where we are, our houses could be tin or fabric, brick or wood, mud or snow. Loghouse or longhouse, yurt or hut, our houses are special to us, because they draw on the cultures of our pasts, and enable us to work, live and feel that we belong in our present.
The Class 3s have built their own models of houses. The criteria were that the houses could be no larger than 50cm by 50cm, and that they had to consist of natural or recycled materials. The houses had to be complete and structurally stable, and they had to be decorated in the style chosen by the child. The Class 3s could also choose whether to include the people who live in the house. It had to be their own work.
Designing and building models of houses help us to think about our new school, and how we can all work towards creating the spaces we want to live in. We want the Imhoff Waldorf's new school building to be a good school: safe for its students as well as inclusive of the communities around it, eco-friendly and earth-conscious – but more than anything, we want the buildings we set here to feel like the home we've always wanted. That home is for our bodies, minds and spirits, and we think Rudolf Steiner would be proud.
You can help us make it happen.


The material called natural mother-of-pearl has never a same color and pattern. In addition, the pattern, the color and the reflexibility of natural mother-of-pearl is changed by the angle throwing light and a situation. I would like to express the relationship between a man and a man and the one between a man and a thing by using natural mother-of-pearl.
The pieces of countless mother-of-pearl surround the whole body with organic shape on Octopus chair. The angle throwing light of mother-of-pearl is changed and they maintain one organic shape. That is, Octopus chair and the mother-of-pearls attached on it do not show us any same shape even at any place. As if we did….

APSEducationDiseases and PathogensProkaryotesCase StudiesBees, Beetles, and Bacteria: the Cucurbit Bacterial Wilt DilemmaCase Study - Part A

THE CASE: PART A
A second-generation farmer, Henry DeSoto, has decided to specialize in muskmelon production in a fast- developing suburban area. He farms approximately 40 acres, and is one of the few farmers left in the area. For the past 3 years, he has been selling muskmelon at local farmers markets. His profits are high, especially because he is very successful at harvesting his fruit early in the season, when prices are relatively high. His major production challenge is controlling cucumber beetles and the deadly disease that they carry: bacterial wilt.
Henry has experienced damaging bacterial wilt outbreaks. One year, he was too late in controlling the beetles and lost 80% of his crop. Ever since, he takes no chances and controls the beetles with a systemic neonicotinoid insecticide at planting and contact insecticide sprays throughout the season. Systemic neonicotinoid insecticides readily move inside plants and can be applied as seed, soil, or foliar treatments. Neonicotinoids are effective against a wide range of sucking and chewing insects and have a long residual activity. In contrast, contact insecticides are not translocated within the plant and insect pests are controlled by direct contact during or after spray applications. Contact insecticides are also effective against a wide range of insects but usually have a shorter residual effect when compared to systemic insecticides.
In addition to insecticide use, some farmers monitor the beetle populations in their fields and use scouting thresholds for cucumber beetles to decide whether they need to spray their crop or not; but beetle populations are hard to predict and scouting can be time-consuming. Henry feels he is too busy to scout and instead he prefers to spray insecticides at regular intervals. Henry's insecticide-based approach means that he makes at least eight to ten insecticide applications per season.
One October evening, Henry receives a call from Deborah Kopper, a local commercial beekeeper who participates in the local community agriculture. Deborah has kept bee hives for 15 years and is chair of the beekeeping association in the county. There are 25 beekeepers across the county, and three of them are located within a mile of Henry's farm.
Deborah mentions that there is a major concern among the beekeepers about the number of insecticide applications he uses on his crop. "Some beekeepers are noticing that their hives are not doing very well, and they're blaming your excessive insecticide use for their problems." Deborah says.
Henry has heard rumors about beekeepers pointing fingers at farmers for endangering bee health with the use of certain insecticides, but he decides to sound calm and confident. "Deborah, I'm using the latest vegetable pest control recommendations from the state university. All of my pesticides are labeled for cucurbit use, so I don't need to apologize for anything I'm doing." Henry replies.
"Well, Henry, I can't stop you… yet. But I thought I'd give you a friendly warning before we file a legal complaint. The latest scientific research supports our claims. We now know that insecticides pose a risk to foraging bees, bee hive health, and other beneficial insects. Have a good day."
A couple of days later, Henry received a letter stating that a lawsuit had been filed. The document stated that Henry's management practices are detrimental to bee and colony health and that at least three beekeepers are suffering economic losses. Henry had hoped that Deborah's call had been a bluff, but he now realizes that this issue will require his immediate attention. He already knew that using less pesticide could be a way to avoid complaints from neighbors, but he hadn't seen the urgency of changing his ways until now.
Henry was upset. He thought, "I did nothing legally wrong! I don't think there is conclusive research that points to insecticide use as being the main factor involved in poor bee hive health, but beekeepers are losing their livelihoods and insecticides have been implicated." Henry thinks about hiring a lawyer but he knows that lawsuits are time-consuming and very expensive. Even if he wins this lawsuit, Henry will have to deal with all the bad publicity and being called a 'bee killer'. This may cause his customers to question his use of pesticides and decide to stop buying his produce at the market.
A week later, Deborah calls again. She wants to help Henry, but his use of pesticides has put them both in a difficult situation. "If you are willing to consider using less insecticide", Deborah says, "I'll set up a mediation meeting with the beekeeping association. But if you decide to have this meeting, Henry," Deborah warns him firmly, "we expect to hear a detailed management plan against cucurbit bacterial wilt that dramatically cuts your use of insecticides."
What should Henry do?
What is the role of cucumber beetles in this disease system? Does this role change your view of the disease triangle? Justify your answer.
