Lyft Offering Free Rides to Combat Drunk Driving on St. Patrick's Day
Ashley Hopko March 11, 2020 at 1:15pm
To keep party-goers safe on St. Patrick's Day, Lyft teamed up with several businesses and organizations in Northern Virginia to offer free and discounted rides back home.
The promotion will be valid from 4 p.m. on Tuesday (March 17) until 4 a.m. on Wednesday, according to a press release, which added that rides up to $15 will be covered with a code that will be released shortly after the promotion starts.
Washington Regional Alcohol Program (WRAP), a local non-profit, is one of the main sponsors of the program. The nonprofit aims to eliminate drunk driving and underage drinking, according to its website.
To take advantage of the promotion, users must be over the age of 21 and have the app downloaded on their phones. People can find the code online.
Roughly 40% of all U.S. traffic deaths involve drunk drivers, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

RestonNow.com December 12, 2019 at 10:45am
Local nonprofit Washington Regional Alcohol Program (WRAP) and ridesharing app Lyft are again partnering to offer free rides during the holiday season.
As part of an effort to combat drunk driving, WRAP will be sponsoring free Lyft rides starting next Friday (Dec. 20).
From 10 p.m. to 4 a.m., rides up to $15 are free with the use of a promo code. The user is responsible for any costs over $15. The offer will continue until Jan. 1.
Weekly codes will be posted on the Sober Rides website at noon on Dec. 20, 27, and 31. The weekly code is only valid for one ride.
According to the Virginia Highway Safety Office, there were 621 alcohol-related crashes in Fairfax in 2017, resulting in 331 injuries and 12 fatalities.
"More than a third of all U.S. traffic fatalities during the holiday season in 2018 involved drunk drivers according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration," WRAP's President Kurt Gregory Erickson said in the press release.
As the program is aimed at preventing alcohol related crashes, Lyft riders must be at least 21 years old to claim the offer. The code is valid for any rides inside the D.C. coverage area, which includes all of Fairfax County.

Crime Roundup: Drunk Reston Man Arrested for Larceny, Assaulting Two Police Officers
Catherine Douglas Moran January 15, 2019 at 4:45pm

Bouazer was transported to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center where he was charged with two counts of assault on a law enforcement officer, larceny and being drunk in public. He was held without bond.
Last Friday (Jan. 11), police in the City of Fairfax arrested another Restonian — this time for drunk driving.
At around 1:44 a.m. police stopped a vehicle that was driving erratically in the area of Revel Run and Fairfax Blvd and arrested and charged Mohiyadin Abukar Abdi of Reston for driving under the influence, according to the report. Abdi was transported to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center.

Fatimah Waseem August 16, 2018 at 3:30pm
The 10th annual Northern Virginia Walk like MADD and MADD DASH is set for October 13 at the Herndon Police Department from 9 a.m. to noon.
Thousands are expected to rally together in over 90 cities across the country in order to increase awareness about drunk driving. Registration for the Herndon event, which is open online, will also take place on site from 8-9 a.m.
The police department is also accepting donations of used sneakers to donate to Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), a nonprofit organization that seeks to eliminate drunk driving, prevents underage drinking and advocates for stricter impaired driving policies.
Donated items should not have any holes. Donations will be accepted at the race and at the Herndon Police Department (397 Herndon Parkway).

How to Get Free Cab Rides This Holiday Season
Andrew Ramonas December 19, 2016 at 11:05am
A local nonprofit organization once again is trying to make it safer, and cheaper, to get home during the holidays after drinking a little too much eggnog in the D.C. area.
The Washington Regional Alcohol Program is covering taxi fares up to $30 as part of its annual holiday SoberRide campaign. The free cabs will run from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. every day until Jan. 1.
"Last December, nearly 1,500 (1,456) Greater Washington residents did the right thing and availed themselves of this lifesaving service rather than possibly driving home impaired," WRAP president Kurt Gregory Erickson said in a statement. "For SoberRide's hours of operation during just last New Year's Eve, alone, such ridership (580) translated into the removal of a would-be drunk driver from our shared roadways every 49-seconds."
To get a complimentary ride, call 800-200-8294.
Alleged Reston Drunk Driver Crashes Car, Walks Away in Loudoun
Karen Goff September 29, 2016 at 12:00pm
A Reston man was charged with a Felony DUI — at least his fifth offense in the last five years — on Tuesday after he crashed his car into a creek and walked away from the scene, the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office says.
Deputies were called to the scene at Algonkian Parkway and
Rutherford Circle in Sterling close to midnight.
A witness told officials male driver exited the vehicle andwalked away from the scene towards a footpath.
The driver was later located and identified as Marc A. Dixon, 31, of Reston.
Dixon was arrested and charged with misdemeanor hit and run and Felony DUI. Dixon has been charged with multiple DUI in the last five years, according to LCSO. He is being held at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center without bond.
In 2014, Dixon was arrested for driving his car backwards down Rugby Road in Fairfax. During that arrest, Dixon provided false information as well as kicked the door and window of the police vehicle he was in, Fairfax County Police said.
In that incident, Dixon was charged with DUI (fourth offense), refusing breath test, fraudulent information to police, destruction of county property, driving while suspended (DUI related) and improper backing on the highway.

Ho Saves the Day in Tigers' 14-12 Victory
First published in the Sept. 24 print issue of the South Pasadena Review.
South Pasadena's boys' varsity water polo team showed their claws and roared as they edged visiting Newbury Park of Ventura County, 14-12. It was an excellent bounce-back performance for the Tigers against a formidable opponent after a loss to Whittier La Serna the previous week.
"I think we did a good job communicating as a team," said Lindsey Garcia, the Tigers' head coach. "We moved the ball well, we shared the goals, everyone was kind of doing their part, and it looked good and it paid off."
The first quarter was the highest-scoring of the entire contest. Newbury Park opened the scoring in the first minute, but with 5:07 left to play, SPHS senior Owen Imasaki tied the game with a goal.
Senior Blix Hadsell-Florin and Imasaki traded goals with Newbury Park to keep the game tied at three until consecutive scores by Newbury gave it a 5-3 advantage. With 28 seconds left to play, senior Will Michels landed a goal. An additional score gave Newbury a 6-4 advantage at the end of the first period.
SPHS seniors Caleb Hunt and Lucas Abrahamian each scored in the second period to trim Newbury Park's lead to 7-6 at halftime.
The tide began to turn in the third quarter. Newbury scored twice within the first three minutes, but excellent defending by SPHS senior goaltender Kaden Ho prevented Newbury from scoring for the remainder of the period.
Abrahamian, Imasaki and Michels scored the final three goals of the third period to tie the contest, 9-9.
SPHS opened the scoring in the fourth with a goal from Hadsell-Florin to give the Tigers their first lead of the game, 10-9. With 4:44 left to play, Michels broke the tie again for an 11-10 lead. The third time was the charm for the Tigers, as freshman Theo Hilger's goal gave SPHS its third and final lead of the game.
Two additional goals from Abrahamian and senior Egan Hadsell-Florin capped the Tigers scoring plays and solidified a 14-12 victory over Newbury.
Ho had an excellent defensive game with 11 saves, preventing Newbury from taking back the lead late in the game.
"Kaden [Ho] actually just started playing in goal for us about two weeks ago, and he's like our hidden little talent, and he's doing a great job," Garcia said. "He came up with a really good block on a five-meter. He reads the game well; he understands where the ball is supposed to be going on offense and makes really good saves."
Egan Hadsell-Florin had a team-high four steals, and Blix Hadsell-Florin had three. Both Abrahamian and Michels each had two steals, while Imasaki added one.
Abrahamian, Imasaki and Michels each had a team-leading three goals, with Blix Hadsell-Florin adding two. Hunt, Egan Hadsell-Florin and Hilger each scored once.
"I was really impressed with Will Michels. He had three goals for us, a couple steals, some assists on offense, he was facilitating the ball well, and he just played an all-around really good team offense and team defense," Garcia said. "He's not typically one of our top scorers, and it was really, really good to see him finding the net a little bit more and then just putting himself in good scoring positions."

In the spring of 2010, spannverbund received the contract for the construction of steel structures for two buildings: a T101-04 steel skyscraper and a T101-05 steel central market hall.
The steel structure of the tower can be divided into two main components. The first of these includes the bilateral reinforcement and connection of two high-rise towers with braces, transfer platforms, bridges, stairs, balconies, and concrete-steel connection elements(a total of about 3,000 tons of steel). The second component consists of steel structures on the high-rise heads with steel roofs as well as the constructed Council Chamber (a total of approximately 400 tons of steel).
We saw possibilities for optimization primarily during the installation and development of the struts and their wall connections, but such options were also present during the final design stages of the transfer platforms, and fire protection.
The question of how elements 38 meters in length and 120 tons in weight could be installed between the towers with heights of 150 meters was one of the main problems we had to solve. In order to achieve this result, spannverbund developed a cost-effective installation concept that eliminated elaborate scaffolding. Our concept also resulted in minimal time needed for crane operation, an extremely important factor in high-rise construction.
The planning of this installation concept naturally required an extended amount of time and innovation. In order to transport the subcomponents of the struts to their unique mounting positions and to allow the cranes more articulated and independent movement, it was necessary to sometimes ascertain and graphically produce three-dimensional concepts of the tandem strokes of the construction cranes.
One particularly intriguing challenge was the construction of the strut connections to the concrete walls. Due to the curved and sloping walls with columns of similar shape behind them and the inclined core staircase of the north tower, the geometry of the two towers twisted and shifted at each phase of construction, causing the location of the strut connection points to change constantly. The high-to-transfer tensile and compressive forces as well as the large tolerances ruled out connections via screw. We therefore developed a construction method that allowed for length and angle adjustments.
The two towers are additionally linked by the supports of the transfer platforms, which also shifted position in every phase of construction. The high tensile and compressive forces of the beams, the necessary tolerances, and the rotation of the beam ends under alternating stresses of the platforms posed unique issues that required further research and conceptualization, including the development of special forms of bearings. Bolt connections were not possible because of the tolerances. The use of locally-adapted, rigid welded construction wouldn't work because of the twisted shape of the support structure. And given the large number of fittings, local welding work would have delayed the construction schedule. Therefore, we opted for a quick-to-install and re-adjustable solution.
The final work on the high-rise head presented a further challenge. The antenna mast towered over the northern high-rise tower by 16 meters and extended the total building height to 201 meters. To avoid dangerous assembly work at this altitude, it was necessary to execute the completion of the mast elements and the mounting of the antennas on the ground. The precast parts of the steel truss mast, totaling 30 meters in length, had to reach their sky-high installation point without complication or damage to the building's painted exterior. A transporter was specifically built for this purpose, which also provided increased support on the ground after unloading.
Our solutions made it possible to install the antennas, lightning protectors, and the lighting of the entire cabling at a comfortable working height. Because the mast foundation was fixed to a bogie, the antenna mast was able to be mounted in a simple manner. After the structure had been released from the bogie, it was pulled onto the roof of the north tower in one piece and bolted onto the concrete ceiling.
Within the central market hall, there are significant steel structures in three major areas: the conference area, the staff restaurant, and the entrance structure with the connection to the historically protected arched roof. Of particular structural noteworthiness is the truss structure, which forms the conference area and supports various ceilings over large spans.
A structure of thick-walled, welded, and hollow sections was conceived to suit these parameters, which had to be protected with an impact-sensitive, flame-retardant coating.
We also engineered an alternative composite structure that had the same rigidity as the originally tendered structure. The segments were completely prefabricated and bolted on site.
The casing of the nodes was welded in a way that achieved a sharp-edged, smooth surface. This was then coated with gray aluminum paint used throughout the building.
For the insertion and installation of bulky, large, and heavy steel parts through the wall openings of the Central Market Hall and beneath the huge, arched roof, logistics had to be planned in detail. In some places, the components were moved with two assembly cranes. In certain instances, the cranes themselves could only be transported in and out of the hall in parts.

Brain Injury in the News
In recent years, brain injury news, awareness and health information on successful breakthrough treatments had finally begun making frequent headlines in medical and science journals, universities, and health conferences around the world.
Sadly, and understandably, over the past several months, COVID19 and its impact on global health have taken center stage. Many health professionals had to restructure their entire system while battling the onslaught of changes associated with an unknown health crisis. The good news is medical research and developments for brain injuries, and brain health continues to expand behind the scenes. Innovators in the fields of advanced therapeutics, medical devices, laboratory biomarkers, functional medicine, neuro-optometry, and more are attributing to the progress needed in understanding how the brain and body react, function, and recover from head trauma. Improvement is definite, yet it can take up to fifteen years for medical advances to become mainstream.
In 2019, The University of Arizona Fire Chiefs Association implemented the EPIC-TBI Project featuring new developments in improving treatment protocols in prehospital injury care. In sharing their vision, they said, "The goal of the EPIC Project is to dramatically increase the number of severe TBI victims who survive with good neurologic outcome by thoroughly implementing the national EMS TBI guidelines." In last year's edition of Forbes, the EPIC project featured three critical elements to changing TBI patient outcomes, "focus on adherence to the three interventions: prevention and treatment of hypoxia, prevention, and avoidance of hyperventilation, and addressing and treatment of hypotension."
In the Lancet Journal for Neurology, blood-based biomarkers for the immediate detection of traumatic brain injuries have made their way through numerous clinical trials. TRACK-TBI Network emphasizes the significant problem with undetected brain injuries through CT scans and even MRI's. Thousands of patients leave emergency rooms each year with undetected brain injuries, leaving them at risk for unknown health complications within the following days, weeks, months, or even years. In some cases of delayed concussion symptoms, Neuroendocrine dysfunction after traumatic brain injury can appear up to thirty-six months post-injury, leaving it as one of the crucial health indicators a traumatic brain injury occurred. Health professionals who treat brain injury or concussion patients may be uninformed of the post-injury fallout from endocrine and hormonal imbalances that contribute to further cognitive and health decline if not routinely checked for prevention. Those who persevere in finding a physician or specialist who understands the risk of long-term health problems caused by a traumatic brain injury could improve their recovery.
In the field of alternative care, functional health professionals continue emphasizing the importance of rehabilitating and treating the whole patient after injury because everything within our body connects with the brain. Medical physicians in the field of functional health allow the patients' symptoms only to be a guide, pointing the way to the root of the problem.


put it back in there .. normally the shells should be left in there and the lobster will eat the shell.. its meant to be full of calcium and nutrients etc. that help the lobster stay healthy while its new shell hardens up because it is quite soft and delicate after a molt..
im not 100% sure whether it would do the lobster any harm in removing its shell, but i have always let mine be and have never came across a half eaten rotted shell or anything.. i suppose give it a few days and if there is anything left of the shell then remove it??
Thanks. After removing it, I read that others had done precisely what you said--left it in there to be eaten. I put it back in, but its floating at the top. Next time he molts, I won't touch it.
Last night, the shell was still floating around the top of the aquarium. This morning, I looked and it was nowhere to be found--not even anywhere on the bottom, so I can only assume it filled with water to the point that it sank, and was entirely consumed by the lobster.
That can only be gd news then! Any pics of it?
I remember the 1st time I saw mine molt and the shell, for some odd reason really freaked and thought it was gross. Odd i know. Lobsters rule.
I used to defrost a frozen prawn, put a bit of fishin wire thru it and let it hang in the water. She went mad for it to the point of actually swingin on it tryin to pull it off.
No, no pics unfortunately. Only one arm was still floating around the top of the water, so I took that out. I'm quite sure he gobbled up the rest. I looked hard inside his favorite hangout (a nice aquarium rock that is leaning over, with two large passage holes through it) and I couldn't see any traces at all.
They sure do. I love this thing. Don't know how I got along with that aquarium without him. B/c it is a few feet away from our dinner table, he is always in our dinnertime conversation (as in, has he eaten any of the other fish lately? etc.).
I'll look for something like that to give him. The only luck I've had is with bloodworms (frozen krill just didn't get eaten up, tho that was before the lobster). On the other hand, bloodworms--the frozen cube--just float until the cube gets warm enough, they diffuse throughout the aquarium and the fish get to them first.
I'd love something that would just sink, so the lobster could have first dibs on it. But I think I will look and see what else Petsmart has that is frozen.


The lexicon of American culture seems to shift as rapidly as dotcoms turn into dot-bombs. But 80 percent of the knowledge that makes someone culturally literate has at least a 100-year life span, a new book posits.
About 500 entries have been added in "The New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know" (Houghton Mifflin), coauthored by E.D. Hirsch Jr. The original 1988 version was a flash point in the debate over multicultural education.
Professor Hirsch of the University of Virginia argues that the ability to read well – which everyone agrees is an important skill – can't be achieved without foundational knowledge drawn from myths, historical events, artistic and literary works, famous people's achievements, and scientific concepts.
Critics contended that the first book didn't include enough references to the contributions of minority groups. But it had enough appeal to land on the bestseller lists.
Since then, the dictionary has been adapted for Germany, Sweden, and the Netherlands. Perhaps Britain will be next: On Friday, Prince Charles complained that students aren't learning enough about their nation's history and said that "the crucial shared link between generations" is being "ruptured."
The updated version for the US comes at a fitting time. The past year, with its constant debates about homeland security and foreign policy, has renewed people's desire to be more conversant with key cultural reference points. The dictionary offers, for instance, a refresher on the "four freedoms" President Franklin Roosevelt spoke of as worth defending just before the US entered World War II. It's somehow no longer satisfying if the only common denominator people can find to talk about at a party is the latest popular TV show.
Modern Parenthood 'Bully' premieres Monday on PBS: How are educators using it as a resource?


Digital advertising automation software provider Nanigans, a Facebook Marketing Partner, analyzed ad impressions delivered by clients using its software in the first quarter, and it found that video accounted for 26 percent more mobile ad spend in North America compared with the fourth quarter of 2015, and a whopping 45 percent more in the Asia-Pacific region.
Nanigans said more than 35 percent of ad spend from game developers in the first quarter went to video ads, up 25 percent quarter-over-quarter and 122 percent year-over-year.
E-commerce advertisers continued to see strong returns on investment, largely due to Facebook's carousel ads and dynamic product ads, with average order value and return on ad spend up double-digits compared with the first quarter of 2015, and same-advertiser purchase rates up 170 percent over the same time period.
More than 60 percent of e-commerce Facebook ad spending was targeted toward mobile users, up 15 percent versus the fourth quarter of 2015.
Click-through rates of 1.25 percent for the first quarter were up 11 percent from the fourth quarter of 2015 and 54 percent year-over-year.
E-commerce CTRs saw a 24 percent quarter-over-quarter gain, the largest since the third quarter of 2014, reaching 1.32 percent, while gaming advertisers set a CTR mark at 0.84 percent.
As expected, cost per thousand impressions (CPMs) were down versus the fourth quarter of 2015 and the holiday shopping season, slipping 7 percent to $5.94, but up 39 percent year-over-year.
Gaming advertisers saw a 9 percent quarter-over-quarter drop in CPMs, and Nanigans attributed part of this to the expansion of Facebook Audience Network.
Cost per click fell 16 percent compared with the fourth quarter of 2015 and 10 percent versus the first quarter of 2015.


That's what I was thinking, too. The easiest solution to the expected output isn't necessarily solving the stated problem. But, that's also the nature of the problems. Perhaps a better problem would be one that simply passed in an array and you had to modify said array in place. That would at least ensure the right problem is being solved.

A sign in front of the Bellefonte Post Office directs those with disabilities to a side entrance with a ramp. Abby Drey adrey@centredaily.com
Miller has found that some historical buildings that aren't up to code use the excuse that they "grandfathered in" to the exception of ADA regulations.
But Ned Liggett, the plan examiner from the Centre Region Council of Governments, said that's no longer a viable reason to not have accessible facilities.
The ADA did have a "grandfather period" where all business owners and public-accessible places had around 20 years to bring their buildings into compliance with ADA regulations. That period expired in March 2013.
The Americans Disability Act Accessibility Guidelines was created to help give people a general idea of what constitutes a barrier of access. However, Liggett said ADAAG should not be used as a design standard.
"So that means people that didn't fix their buildings and remove barriers to access that met ADAAG or the intention of ADAAG were in violation of a civil rights law," Liggett said.
Having buildings that aren't accessible to all hurts everyone, not just those with disabilities, according to Miller.
"Because they have a disability, they have a lot to offer. Maybe it's that place's loss that the individual can't get in because maybe they could work there. So it's stopping their employment, or maybe they want to volunteer there or if they want to go shopping there," Miller said. "Its hurting both parties, really."
James Herbert, a professor-in-charge at Penn State's Rehabilitation and Human Services Program, said accessibility for all can impact a business.
"When the physical environment is not inviting, the probability of generating repeat customers with special needs goes down," Herbert said. "Given that about 1 in 5 adults is someone with a disability, I don't know too many businesses that can afford losing 20 percent of potential customers."
Honoring the code
As new buildings go up across the county, accessibility has increased. That's because new building designs are closely regulated to meet accessible building code standards.
Liggett has been on the "front-line" of reviewing commercial building plans in seven municipalities around Centre County.
Because the federal government holds the power to enforce ADA, Liggett makes sure buildings have accessible route requirements to meet building codes that are not directly ADA regulations.
Liggett said there are "oodles" of buildings that are not up to building regulations nationwide. A person must file a lawsuit against a business in order to enforce ADA.
Common factors required for public-accessible buildings include van-accessible parking, accessible entrance and an accessible pathway through the entrance and into the facility, according to Liggett.
In addition, there are specific elements that a building designer must follow — accessible height for a water fountain, toilet rooms with accessible routes and tactile signage (braille and raised letters) located near accessible locations.
Liggett said problems can arise even with established accessibility regulations. "Some building departments may not necessarily know what they are doing, or there's political pressure to make things not too problematic for people making alterations to buildings, meaning expensive," he said.
Last month, the Centre County Office of Transportation received a federal- and state-funded Capital Grant award for $275,000 to replace four accessible buses. This is essential, as Centre County provides a "shared ride" transportation service to anyone in the county, including those with disabilities.
David Lomison from Centre County Office of Transportation shows how the lift works on one of the mini-buses the county has to help older community members. The county recently received a grant to replace four accessible buses. Abby Drey adrey@centredaily.com
In addition to the county's accessible fleet, private adult communities have their own accessible transportation for residents.
Jill McKenrick, the connections director at Juniper Communities, a senior living community located in State College, said she often takes her residents out. The biggest difficulty she encounters is the amount of space for handicapped buses to load and unload residents who need walking assistance, often causing traffic backups.
Because she has difficulties driving around one-way streets and parking lots, she avoids trips to downtown State College.
Restroom location in older buildings is also another problem, McKenrick has noticed. Large-sized bathrooms are important because in addition to a wheelchair, there should also be enough room for a caregiver to assist.
Nick Corona, a student at Penn State and an administrative intern at Juniper Village, said he noticed some older buildings have bathrooms not located on the ground floor, in which handicapped people would have to use stairs in order to access the facilities.
"Bars, their restrooms are very small and old. Some bars you can only go up the stairs or down the stairs to and there's not really an elevator," Corona said.
McKenrick said she knows which restaurants downtown are off-limits.
"And that's unfortunate, because some of those are my favorite restaurants, so I feel bad that some of our residents can't go to those places," McKenrick said.
More platform lifts in spaces that don't have ramps for people who are handicapped would help, she said.
State College Borough Manager Tom Fountaine said ordinances such as the "Unlawful Public Accommodations Practices" and the "Residential Visitability Design Tax Credit Program" require and incentivize accessibility from local property owners.
"These ordinances, along with the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code, help improve the accessibility of local buildings for people with disabilities," Fountaine said in a statement. "The Borough will continue to work to make sure that our community is accessible by residents and visitors."
For Herbert, the first step is to start working on people's own belief system. That starts with the question, "What can I do to make this work for someone different from me?"
"Once we explore this question, it is amazing how accessibility barriers start to come down," he said.
People with disabilities cannot enter the front of the Centre County Courthouse due to the stairs, but an alternate entrance is located in the back of the building. Abby Drey adrey@centredaily.com

I just read this article as I was browsing the web that I wanted to share with others. Please view http://www.nj.com/news/gloucester/local/index.ssf?/base/news-10/121540572624740.xml&coll=8.
The article talks about how our children always need UV protection when they are outdoors in the sun. I took note since we have been going to the beach during this summer, as our daughter loves the water. Its a little scary how most of the time we don't think of these things, taking a lot of things for granted.
I thought this article would be useful for everyone with kids.
My children are 6 and 4 years old respectively. We have not paid attention to this yet. And they spend quite a lot a summer time outdoors with little protection.
What are the indications of a potential problem? Would we need to see an ophthalmologist to assess the same?
Thank you very much for the article link.
Although the article hasnt mentioned anything with regard to your questions which I think every parent in this situation would ask, it would not hurt us when we are at the pediatrician's office to ask him or her.
What we can do immediately is start protecting them the next time they go out.
I shall definitely post anything I find out.
I will check on this too when I meet the ophthalmologist. I am due to see one very soon for the children.
The article describes the types of UV radiations, how to assess risk of damage to eyes from UV radiation, and what kind of protection you can use.

Kangana Ranaut set to play Rani Laxmi Bai in Ketan Mehta's upcoming flick
Murtaza Ali Khan 4:09:00 PM bollywood , Editorial , hugh grant , india , kangana ranaut , ketan mehta , rani laxmi bai Edit
The word 'Queen' (translated to 'Rani' in Hindi) has certainly become synonymous with the leading Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut. After Queen (2014) and Revolver Rani (2014), Kangana looks all set to essay the role of Rani Laxmi Bai in Ketan Mehta's next film. This comes after the unprecedented success of Anand Rai's Tanu Weds Manu Returns (2015) with Nikhil Advani's Katti Batti scheduled to release in September.
According to a report by Hindustan Times, the film would be Mehta's follow up to 2005 film Mangal Pandey, starring Aamir Khan in the titular role, and is perceived as the second installment in his proposed "The Rising" trilogy. The film is going to be an Indo-British production and is also expected to star Hugh Grant in a major role.

Fold one of the papers in half (1) then unfold and fold in half the other way (2). Now fold the paper diagonally (3), unfold and fold it diagonally the other way (4).
On your horizontal and vertical lines, make a mark slightly less than half way to the center.
Cut your horizontal and vertical lines up to the mark that you made and fold each of the flaps in toward the center.
Now overlap the flaps and glue them together. Do this to the remaining sides.
Do the same with your second piece of paper to make two stars. Once you have both stars made, glue them back to back. I forgot to take a photo of this step but you can scroll down to the finished photo for a reference.
Now it is time to decorate your star. I painted mine white (It would have been better to use white paper but they were all out) then I covered it in glue and sprinkled some glitter on it.
To attach the star to the tree I used a long wooden rod and stuck it though one of the gaps in the back of the star then I shoved the other end of the wooden rod down into my tree.
Thank you for the tutorial! We made your star for our tree! this is our first ever tree topper and we absolutely love it! Thank you! We just did not cover it in glitter because our other decorations are matte. Therefore white poster paper worked great!
aamaksimchuk, your tree is beautiful!! Thank you for linking back to my tutorial. I'm so glad that you found it useful.


The idea that the future is something which can be predicted or known with certainty, as opposed to a mere hypothesis or likelihood, raises a host of questions.
There is a very limited sense, of course, in which predicting future events is no more fantastic than knowing that water will boil at a certain temperature or that most humans will fail to live beyond a certain age. One can predict with near certainty that the sun will still be shining 10 years from now and that most people will still be falling asleep at night and waking up in the morning.
The ability to reason and predict the future with some limited degree of accuracy, based upon simple observation and pattern recognition, would seem to be a basic fact of the human condition. Educated judgments with a scientific basis aimed at predicting future social trends likewise would not seem out of place.
Everything changes, however, when such predictions become even moderately specific or involve events well into the future. How possible would it be would be, for example, to know exactly what project you will be working on, who the president of the United States will be, and what you will be wearing at 10:05 a.m. on January 15, 2035?
This may all seem like so much common sense, but the fact is, the belief in prophetic truth and in things like destiny continue to beset the minds of many people, even in this modern day and age and despite the host of philosophical contradictions and conundrums presented by such presuppositions.
The problems are especially acute for persons professing to know the future in totality, right down to the most minute detail. Admittedly, it is not so much select mortals who claim to have such ability as much as it is their belief that there exists a genuine, bona fide deity who is nothing less than omniscient. But if the future is known, what happens to free will? How can a person know with certainty that a prediction is accurate before it happens? What is the difference between prediction and happenstance? Imagine the complexity of knowing the consequences of all of the accumulated choices made by millions of people decades down the road.
Surely it is all to convenient to dress one's predictions in allegory or in statements which are generally true for most civilization and cultures throughout most periods in time, as in the prediction that "there will be wars and rumors of wars." What are such statements but rational observations and educated guesses with some possibility of coming true?
Intelligent beings need a basis and a framework in which to judge and make decisions affecting the course of their lives. While such frameworks need not be eternal and permanent, very often are assumed to be precisely that. Why? Is temporal uncertainty simply too much to bear? Is it all part of the scramble to find meaning and purpose in life? Is it essential for humans to project a known or deterministic future in order to feel as though their lives have value?
Ironically, prophecy adherents very often embrace the concept of free will at the same time that they assume there is a future that cannot change. May I suggest their error is in assuming, evidence aside, that the human will is an entity unto itself, entirely separate from the body and fully responsible for the choices it makes. But what is life if it is not governed by some measure of reason, cause and effect, the will included? And by what evidence does one conclude that choice itself does not lie within that same eternal stream of connectivity?
"When a man says his will is free, he means that it is free of all control or interference: that it can over-rule heredity and environment. We reply that the will is ruled by heredity and environment. The cause of all the confusion on this subject may be shown in a few words. When the free will party say that man has a free will, they mean that he is free to act as he chooses to act. There is no need to deny that. But what causes him to choose? That is the pivot upon which the whole discussion turns." (Blatchford, Robert, Not Guilty, Albert And Charles Boni, Inc., 1913).

"Pussy" – a musical adaptation of Angela Carter.
September 15, 2017 by Webmaster
Pussy is a musical adaptation of Angela Carter's radio play and short story Puss-in-Boots from her well-known collection of short stories, The Bloody Chamber. Carter's genius was to unfurl the feline raunchiness implicit in Charles Perrault's tale. The outcome is high comedy and the target it hits is the male chauvinism imprisoning human sexuality. The show presents sexual intrigue and seduction as seen through the eyes of a talking, booted, dilettante cat.
This musical version of Carter's radio play and short story, 'Puss-in-Boots', commemorates the 25th anniversary since her death. This extravaganza is a blend of Perrault's fairytale (translated by Carter), commedia dell' arte and Figaro from the operas by Mozart and Rossini. The music captures the prose of such antics as his somersaulting holding a full wine-glass and speaking in French, the language closest to a purr. Music and lyrics have a feline quality. The ribald cynicism of the tom-cat protagonist expresses Carter's radical treatment of traditional fairytales, which expose gender issues still relevant today.
Angela Carter was one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century, best known for her transformations of the fairy tale. She also wrote a libretto for an opera and published the children's book, Comic and Curious Cats (1979). Around five of her nine novels were written while she was living in Clifton, Bristol during the 1960s and where she studied English at the University of Bristol. This entertainment promises to capture her subversive humour and to introduce or re-acquaint audiences with her highly original and wicked imagination.

Q: Making a transparent bootstrap navbar solid on scroll I am currently working on a sticky bootstrap navbar that is transparent, but on scroll becomes a solid color so it is visibile.  The code seems to be working on the desktop view and fades in and out correctly from transparent to solid.  The problem I am having is that for some reason the hamburger menu drop down  continues to be transparent and is not taking the background color property.
 const [navbar, setNavbar] = useState(false)

  const changeBackground = () => {
    if (window.scrollY >= 75) {
      setNavbar(true)

    } else {

As the masthead warned us, the Boston Globe has freshened up its editorial/opinion pages for whatever reason (maybe a focus group?).
So, for example, Decoder, the explainer with a point of view, quite logically starts out with the umpteenth example of Boston as the Can't Do city.
A mere ten years later, Joanna Weiss helpfully points out, construction finally started late last month.
And etc. You can check it all out here.
One thing that struck the hardreading staff: Only one editorial instead of the two or three in the old, unfreshened format. That, of course, might change. We'll see.
But this also strikes us: The hardy few readers who actually do venture onto the opinion pages of the Globe are almost assuredly more interested in the content than the packaging. We'll see about that as well.
Good Friday turned out to be Bad Friday for Store 2024.
As in, all news was bad news for the local machers mucking up the bid for the 2024 Summer Olympics.
Start with yesterday's Boston Globe (which has generally taken pity on the totally inept Boston 2024niks), where two – count 'em, two – columnists wrote MISTIA (More in Sorrow Than in Anger) pieces about the botched bid.
In all the hand-wringing over the mess that is Boston's Olympics bid, Doug Rubin has managed to escape scrutiny.
Boston 2024 is awash in problems — and none bigger is the group's ability to get its message across that the Games can make Boston a better version of itself. The Olympics are supposed to be a feel-good event, but not here. Instead, the Games are toxic, as if organizers are proposing to build a nuclear waste dump on the Greenway.
There's plenty of blame to go around, from Boston 2024 chairman John Fish to our naysaying selves. But Rubin and his firm Northwind Strategies are most responsible for making sure the public understands why hosting the Summer Games could be good for Boston.
Which the public assuredly does not.
Crosstown at the Marty Walsh Gazette (a.k.a. the Boston Herald), the marty local tabloid – which had been a sort of house organ for City Hall until being thrown under the buss on Thursday – was silent yesterday on all matters Olympic.
Which brings us to Friday's New York Times drive-by hooting.
After completing its long, complicated and anything but transparent process of choosing a city as its candidate to host the 2024 Summer Games, the United States Olympic Committee has found itself in an awkward position.
Boston, the city the committee chose to represent the United States, does not appear to want to host the Games at all.
Too expensive, some Bostonians say — the money used to host the Games should be dedicated to improving schools and social programs. Too many people, others say — Boston has terrible traffic, so why invite thousands more to further clog the streets?
Too unnecessary, say those personally hurt by the notion that the Olympics could improve Boston's image worldwide: Why does Boston need the Olympics to validate it as a world-class city when Bostonians are perfectly happy with Boston as it is?
Except they're not. Never really have been.
But Bostonians are even less happy with the Olympics. Then again, that's just one of many problems with the town's bid. And so, according to the Times, the endgame is near, in the form of the 2016 statewide referendum Boston 2024 has promised.
If recent history is any guide, that public vote will deal the fatal blow to Boston's chances. Voters in Munich; St. Moritz/Davos, Switzerland; and Krakow, Poland, all batted away their bids for the 2022 Winter Games. Vienna retreated from its 2028 Summer Games bid after a vote, too.
Oh, right – we had forgotten that one: Bostonians are unpatriotic if they don't support this game of five-ring monte.
Please, someone, put these people out of our misery.
As the hardreading staff has previously noted, the Boston Herald has been the house organ for City Hall in all things Olympic while the Boston Globe has been the preferred venue for the store 2024 set.
For instance, today's stately local broadsheet includes only this from Walsh in Mark Arsenault's piece about the come-to-Jesus atmosphere at Boston 2024.
But the Marty Walsh Gazette trumpets a very different story.

The new Southern Utah Museum of Art (SUMA) at Southern Utah University in Cedar City announces a "Call for Artists" for its inaugural 2017 biennial, national, juried art quilt exhibition. Artists from anywhere in the United States and its territories are invited to submit work for consideration by jurors Marilyn Badger and Sandra Hoefner.
Deborah Snider, curator of the highly acclaimed 2012 international invitational art quilt exhibition at Southern Utah University, said "Visitors to the gallery in 2012 were astonished at the wide variety of art quilts, fabric collages, and embroidered artwork on display, and had no idea of the sophisticated vision of today's artists working in fibers and fabrics." While there is a strong tradition in southern Utah for traditional quilt making, artists are increasingly involved in art quilting.
This exhibition will be held from June 30 through August 26, 2017 at SUMA, a state-of-the-art facility with 600 linear feet of exhibition space in a 6,000 square foot gallery. The online entry site will open on November 1, 2016, with a deadline for submissions of February 1, 2017. Accepted artists will be notified by March 15, 2017. A catalog will be produced for the exhibition, with commentary by the jurors, who will also award monetary prizes.
Juror Marilyn Badger has produced award-winning quilts since 1991, including numerous Best-of-Show awards around the country and Best Longarm Quilting Awards at all three American Quilter's Society shows held in Paducah, Nashville, and Des Moines. She and her professional quilting techniques have been featured on over 60 PBS quilting shows with Fons and Porter and Kaye Wood, as well as "Quilt Central" with Donna Wilder and Janie Donaldson and HGTV's "Simply Quilts" with Alex Andersen. Marilyn's work has also been featured in many national and international quilting books and magazines. After teaching longarm quilting classes for 11 years in her studio as well as in the United States, Canada, Australia and Japan, she now serves as a consultant to APQS and has been an active participant on their behalf at major national and international quilt shows.
Juror Sandra Hoefner currently lives in Grand Junction, Colorado after nineteen moves as a military spouse. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting and ceramics from the University of Alaska, Anchorage, and a Master of Fine Arts in drawing, painting, and mixed media, which includes fiber and assemblage, from the University of Alaska, Fairbanks. Sandra has shown her art quilts internationally and nationally in popular juried exhibitions such as the International Quilt Festival in Houston and the American Quilter's Society show in Paducah, Kentucky; "Earth, Fire and Fibre," in Anchorage and "Interior Artisans" in Fairbanks. Her work is in the collections of the University of Alaska, Fairbanks Museum and the Alaska Contemporary Art Bank. She is a Juried Artist Member of Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA), a national art quilt organization. Sandra is also a member of the Art Quilt Association of Western Colorado (AQuA), Front Range Contemporary Quilters (FRCQ-Colorado), Fabric Arts Studio (FAS-Connecticut), and the Surface Design Association (SDA). Sandra's artwork is included in over ten national art quilt and fiber publications.
A prospectus for this exhibition is available at https://www.suu.edu/pva/suma/exhibits/pathfinders.html.
