To make this work better, I added a booster capacitor so it should work on a generator with less surge needed to start.
Luckily there was already a hole in the plastic to mount it to. Make sure wires can't get sucked into the fan.

Welcome to another edition of Underrated CUUSOO for LEGO Ideas, exclusively on SilentMode.tv.
There are lots and lots of copycat projects via the Discover tab on the site, and it's getting so ridiculous that I may even submit a project to change things up. So this month there are only three projects really worth mentioning, in my opinion.
This project is part of a series of modular fairy tales, but jrbony had the sense to make this a separate project to stand on its own. The model itself has appeal for fans of microscale (such as myself), a number of interesting parts, and the premise of the set is also child friendly. As an added bonus, the S9 Cyclops has finally found its calling!
I particularly like the cloud design, which looks like something out of a recent Zelda game; no doubt there was some influence there.
At the moment this project has just 17 supporters, while the Fairy Tale Modular Set has 353. Make sure you support one or both of these projects.
LEGO has already put out a wedding minifigure set, and we've seen a wedding taking place at their Town Hall modular building. News has also leaked – no thanks to the leakers – about a V-Day set for this year, depicting a wedding proposal. With so many married/engaged/long-term-committed couples in the LEGO community, I guess it comes as no surprise.
Anyhow, why not add another model to the collection? This one here is of a different stage within the whole marriage ordeal, where the husband and wifey finally have some time on their own. Even for this jaded AFOL who isn't interested in marriage, it's a very sentimental set, highlighted by the included video.
It literally hopped in the ring yesterday, and as such has only 5 supporters.
Last but not least, we have a set that mimics design utensils – in a similar vein to Peter Reid's MOC – and I think, if the right combination of tools and things were depicted, it would be a great idea for a LEGO Ideas set, or a set in general. It could maybe start a Parts Out Of LEGO (POOL) revolution or something.
I'd make a few changes if I could, but as it stands the project currently has 29 supporters. Why not add your name to the list?
And indeed, that's all we have for this month. Remember, to get on Underrated CUUSOO a project must have 500 supporters or less, and non-IP takes precedence over IP.


According to recent statistics, more than 24 million Americans have cataracts. Cataracts is one of the leading causes of blindness in the United States because if it is left untreated, cataracts can indeed lead to blindness. In addition, the longer cataracts are left untreated, the more difficult it can be to successfully remove the cataract and restore vision.
During Cataract Awareness Month in June, the American Academy of Ophthalmology and Evergreen Eye Center would like to remind the public that early detection and treatment of cataracts is critical to preserving sight.
A cataract is a clouding of the eye's lens, which blocks or changes the passage of light into the eye. The lens of the eye is located behind the pupil and the iris. It is normally transparent.
When it is cloudy, vision may become blurry or dim because the cataract stops light from properly passing through to the retina.
What are the risk factors for developing a cataract?
If you think you might have a cataract, talk to your primary care physician or your community optometrist. They can recommend further testing or next steps.
The key to preventing vision loss is regular eye exams. The American Academy of Ophthalmology recommends that people get a baseline eye examination at age 40, the time when early signs of disease or vision changes may occur. If you are 65 or older, you should get a complete eye exam every one or two years, even if you have no problem seeing well. Be sure to ask your eye doctor for a dilated eye exam.
If you have questions about cataract surgery options, such as our drop-less cataract surgery, Evergreen Eye Center can help with that discussion. Call 1.800.340.3595 to make an appointment.


Old member returning after a looooong break! Had to re-register, it's been so long.
I'm a massive horror movie fan! Basically anything horror from all times and countries.
I'm 'Haileybury'. I've joined the forum as I try to see as many movies as possible although have failed a bit recently as the last thing I saw was A Star Is Born which I thought was great. I like most types of films except horrors. I've just moved to Tunbridge Wells so my best cinema is the Odeon here. I hope to be contributing to the forum a fair bit.
Hi My name is Lorre and from just out side Glasgow and I like to watch a variety of films, but love horror.
Just joined the site and writing to say hi! I'm in Croydon and managed to bag myself a couple of free tickets to see the Green Book last week in Sutton. A must see film. Funny, thought provoking and difficult to watch at times, but it again brings to light the prejudice, violence and discrimination towards black African Americans, which sadly is still evident today.
Hi, just introducing myself here, fairly new member from Peterborough. Looking forward to becoming part of the community here!

Feingold raises $2.4 million, has $3.4 million
Johnson has not yet released fundraising totals
Posted: October 1, 2015 4:52 PM
Feingold gives first TV interview after campaign announcement
MADISON, Wis. — Democrat Russ Feingold has $3.4 million cash on hand for his U.S. Senate race against Republican incumbent Ron Johnson.
Feingold's campaign released the latest fundraising figures for July through September to The Associated Press on Thursday before an Oct. 15 filing deadline.
Feingold's campaign says it raised $2.4 million during the quarter. That is slightly above the $2.3 million he raised in the six weeks after jumping into the race on May 14.
Johnson's campaign has yet to release his quarterly fundraising totals. In the previous three months, Johnson brought in about $2 million and had $2.7 million cash on hand.
A Marquette University Law School poll released Wednesday showed Feingold with a 14-point lead, but pollster Charles Franklin says the numbers suggest most people aren't focused on the race.

Rhiannon holds a BA(Hons) from the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) in Japanese and History, specialising in memory and representation of historical violence. As part of this degree she spent an academic year at Sophia University in Tokyo studying Japanese, nationalism, and religious violence.
In 2018, Rhiannon completed the LLM International Human Rights Law and Practice at CAHR, during which she also worked with SUARAM (a national NGO) in Malaysia on placement.
Rhiannon accepted ESRC 1+3 funding and is completing the MA in Social Research before continuing onto the PhD in Law.
Rhiannon has worked as a lecturer in English and drama in Kagoshima, Japan, as well as with a foreign language media company as the Studio Project Manager. Currently, she also volunteers as a lead activist with Amnesty International UK as the Japan Country Coordinator, and as Research Officer for the Anti-Death Penalty Project.
Rhiannon's research will consider the legacy of historical human rights violations in East Asia. It will focus on civil society led transitional justice mechanisms, and their potential to act as positive social control in contesting State denial. By examining case studies such as the Yushukan museum (which exhibits nationalist narratives on the past) and the advocacy surrounding the "Comfort Women" (which pushes for victim redress), the thesis will inform human rights campaigning and reconsider the top-down narratives inherent in transitional justice studies.

Kashmir avalanche: Bodies of 4 missing soldiers recovered, death toll reaches 14
Army spokesperson said the search operation has been stopped.

Avalanche fury in Gurez sector.(HT Photo)
Bodies of the four soldiers who went missing after avalanches struck an army camp and patrol in Gurez area of Jammu and Kashmir's Bandipora district have been recovered, taking the death toll to 14.
Army spokesman Rajesh Kalia said the search operation had been stopped. "We recovered four more bodies which were part of the army patrol. Every soldier has been accounted for," he said.
A series of avalanches struck army installations and residential houses in Bandipora on Wednesday after Kashmir valley received record snowfall in a decade in the month of January.
The avalanches swept away an army camp of 51 Rashtriya Rifles taking the lives of three soldiers. A JCO (junior commissioned officer) and six soldiers were rescued from the camp.
Another avalanche struck an army patrol in the same region from which seven bodies were recovered on Thursday.
Four members of a family were killed in the district after their house collapsed due to heavy snowfall. Police said that their house had come under an avalanche.
In a separate avalanche in Ganderbal district, an army major also lost his life on Wednesday.
Kashmir has been witnessing one of the severest winters since 2006 and 1992, with heavy snow across the territory and temperature dropping to minus 7 degrees Celsius. But conditions are expected to improve from January 27, said director meteorological centre, Sonam Lotus.
Besides militancy, weather has been a major adversary of armed forces in Kashmir. Avalanches caused a third of the army fatalities between 2007 and 2012 in the Valley.
On February 3 last year, 10 soldiers were killed after an avalanche hit Siachen Glacier, the world's highest and coldest battlefield.
The latest disaster zone is close to the Line of Control (LoC), the de facto border with Pakistan.
Police said heavy snow damaged 13 houses, three shops and a shrine in Budgam and Ganderbal districts.
About 150 people were evacuated on Wednesday from avalanche-prone Khadiyall and Ismarg villages of Gurez.
Since the start of heavy snowfall on Tuesday, at least seven civilians have died in the Valley including four members of family in Bandipora.
Authorities have issued avalanche warnings, advising residents in mountainous areas not to venture out.

Is Your Computer Monitor Really Hurting Your Eyes?
After a long day of staring at spreadsheets or screens full of code, your eyes feel dry and tired, and you may have a dull headache. You assume that the eye irritation will go away when you get away from the computer. But if your job requires this of you every day, are your eyes being permanently damaged? Learn about how your computer impacts your vision and what you can do to reduce the strain and irritation.
Nearly 70 percent of people who use computers in their job experience some of these symptoms, notes Statistic Brain. You may not have all of these symptoms and, for most people, they go away when you stop working on the computer. There is little evidence that working on your computer causes permanent eye damage, reports NBC New York.
Each of these cause your eyes to work harder. The muscles in and around your eyes, and your neck muscles, must constantly adjust to keep the computer monitor in focus. These muscles get tired and will start to ache.
There are also differences in the way your eyes perceive text on a monitor versus words on a printed page that cause these symptoms.
The words on a book are printed in a constant contrast on a background that doesn't change. Your eyes adjust to focus on a page and rarely have to change unless the lighting changes. Text on a computer is made of tiny pixels. These little dots of light are brightest in the center and become fainter toward the edge. To keep focused on a computer screen, your eyes must continually adjust. This can exhaust your eye muscles and create the CVS symptoms.
Lift your monitor so it is at eye level to reduce the strain on your neck and shoulder muscles.
Change or supplement the lighting in your work area so you work in a full-spectrum light that doesn't flicker.
Adjust the lighting to remove glare or use an anti-glare film over your monitor.
Look away from the monitor periodically and allow your eyes to focus on something else in the distance.
You don't need to worry about permanent eye damage from looking at your computer all day. But you will continue to get eye strain if you don't take some of these precautions.

Suspect Arrested in Connection With Bernal Hill Hit and Run
April 16, 2018 April 16, 2018 / Todd_Lappin	/ 22 Comments
SFPD booking photo of Aliitasi Alapati, who was arrested as the suspected driver of the vehicle that struck a pedestrian on Bernal Hill on March 22.
The San Francisco Police announced the arrest of a woman who is believed to have been the driver of the vehicle involved in a hit and run accident last month that left a victim with life-threatening injuries on the north-east side of Bernal Hill.
San Francisco resident Aliitasi Alapati, 41, was arrested last Thursday in connection with the March 28 hit and run on Bernal Heights Boulevard.
Video footage of the incident obtained by Bernalwood showed that at 8:22 am, a Jeep Liberty swerved across a lane of traffic and struck a woman who was walking along the footpath on the other side of the road. The video also showed that the Jeep did not stop and left the scene immediately after running the victim down.
Last Thursday, the SFPD moved in to make an arrest.
The Examiner reports that police executed search warrants at three San Francisco homes last Thursday, including one on the 200 block of Raymond Avenue, one on the 300 block of Chenery Street and one on the 300 block of Font Blvd. The suspect vehicle was located at the Raymond Avenue address, and Alaptati was arrested on Font.
The Examiner adds that security camera video footage and evidence provided by witnesses yielded information that helped identify Alaptati as the suspect.
The incident left the victim, an unidentified woman, with life-threatening injuries. While there have been no official statements about the victim's status, Bernalwood has received information from credible sources that she is recovering from her injuries.
Woman Injured After Hit and Run on Bernal Heights Blvd.
March 28, 2018 March 28, 2018 / Todd_Lappin	/ 51 Comments
Video footage shows a Jeep Liberty veering off the road and striking a woman on Bernal Heights Boulevard.
A pedestrian was injured on the northeast side of Bernal Hill at 8:20 this morning, after she was hit by a car traveling east on Bernal Heights Boulevard. The driver of the car left the scene without stopping.
A Bernal neighbor tells Bernalwood:
There was a hit & run on Bernal Heights Blvd this morning.
I hope that another Bernal neighbor may recognize the vehicle? If someone does, they should contact the Ingleside Police station: 415-404-4000. (That's the front desk so they should ask to speak with an investigator and say it's about a hit & run in Bernal Heights this morning.)
Here is video footage of the hit and run. The incident occurs at the 27 second mark:
Another neighbor who was also at the scene provides an update on the victim:
She was conscious but mostly non-responsive. What I overheard the medics saying suggests she has back and leg injury, but could still move her legs.
Video footage shows the vehicle that struck the woman was a dark-colored Jeep Liberty Sport from the 2005 to 2007 model years.
The video footage also shows that the vehicle was traveling east before swerving well off the pavement on the opposite side of the road to hit the woman, who was walking along the path on the north side.
Overnight Fire Displaces 4 on Prospect Avenue
December 25, 2017 December 25, 2017 / Todd_Lappin	/ 3 Comments
A late-night residential fire badly damaged a home at 254 Prospect Avenue (near Eugenia), at around 1 am last night.
The blaze also spread to two adjacent homes, prompting the SFFD to issue a second alarm.
There were no injuries, but four Bernal neighbors were reported displaced.
Bernalwood will provide additional information as it becomes available.
Fund Created to Help Bernal Neighbor After Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Bernal neighbors Fran Maffeo and Even Lammers, in a recent photograph
It's been a little more than a week since Bernal neighbor Even Lammers died of carbon monoxide poisoning in his Moutrie Street home. In the meantime, Even's surviving partner, Fran Maffeo, must now carry on without her companion of the last 40 years.
Neighbor Deborah used to live next door to Fran and Even, and she's spreading the word about a crowdfunding campaign underway to help Fran navigate this difficult time. Deborah tells Bernalwood:
There's now a Go Fund Me page for Fran Maffeo, the surviving victim of last week's carbon monoxide poisoning on Moultrie.
Fran is a senior neighbor of ours with limited resources and no surviving family.
Fran and Even's former next-door neighbor Jennifer set up the page "to pay for a simple service for Even and to ensure that Fran has a safe home to live in for her last years."
Additional details are on the GoFundMe page; Bernal neighbors who are so inclined are encouraged to contribute to the effort.

This story was written by Fiona Lee from Hoodline.
A Bernal Heights family is now homeless after a Monday morning gas explosion tore through their home.
The Godoy family—Carlos, 70, Carmen, 72, and their 43-year-old son Carlos, who is deaf—lost all of their belongings.
The explosion also wrecked their only car, which was used for doctor appointments and transportation to work.
The younger Carlos was home when the explosion occurred, but escaped uninjured after it blew out the windows.
"I think what happened in my house, the roof was very bad. Everything is coming down," Carmen told ABC7 when she returned to the wreckage of her home.
Through the American Red Cross, the family is housed in a motel until Monday. The charity also provided the family with money for incidentals.
The family is also raising funds through GoFundMe. As of press time, they have raised $3,300 out of their $6,000 goal.
PG&E is still investigating the cause of the gas leak and the subsequent explosion.
Updated: Gas Leak and Explosion Damages Mission Street Home in Bernal Heights

Damage at 3971 Mission Street, as shown by KTVU.
A gas leak triggered an explosion that damaged a home at 3971 Mission Street in Bernal Heights, near the intersection of St. Mary's Ave.
There are no current reports of injuries, but Mission Street is closed in the area and an evacuation order is in effect. PG&E crews are also on the scene.

KTVU's helicopter captured aerial footage from the scene:
UPDATE (Nov. 27, 2:15 pm) Fiona Lee from Hoodline shares these details on the incident:
According to Division Chief Rex Hale, who was on scene, the most likely reason for the explosion was gas filling up in the garage of the two-story building and hitting a pilot light.
The "uncommon" explosion occurred as firefighters walked up inside the building at around 10am, accompanied by a "heavy smell of gas," said Hale.
The incident blew out the front windows of the building at 3987 Mission Street. No one was at home at the time, and no injuries have been reported.
Roughly 100 people from 19 addresses on the 3900 block of Mission St., the 100 block of Bosworth and the 100 block of College Terrace were evacuated. There is no timeline yet for when they will be able to return to their homes.
24 Muni Bus Collides With Truck on Cortland
A 24 Muni bus headed west on Cortland Avenue collided with a truck yesterday afternoon. No injuries were reported.
Neighbor Judy was on the scene to share this dispatch:
Your Bernalwood Prentiss Street correspondant is reporting big excitement on Cortland between Nevada/Prentiss/Banks St.
SF Muni #24 had a run-in with a small hauling truck on Cortland.
Ambulance/Fire arrived on the scene between 4:30/4:45. No one injured.
SFPD, SFMuni, and DPT were also on-site.
It was hard to get details, as police really didn't want to be interrupted by my reporter questions. But neighbors indicated that the bus ran into the hauling truck. The front, right-hand side of the bus had significant damage. No injuries.
SF Muni teams were on location to turn around Muni buses headed up the hill from Bayshore. Cortland was impassable while the incident was being cleared.

Fire-Gutted Bernal Heights Home Asks $799,000, and America Asks WTF?!
October 24, 2017 October 24, 2017 / Todd_Lappin	/ 12 Comments

Remember the sad tale of 121 Gates Street, the small house that was gutted by fire back in July, 2016? The house was never rebuilt after the fire, but the property was recently put up for sale, with the ruined, 1746 sq. ft. structure remaining more or less unchanged since firefighters left the scene — and an asking price of $799,000.
At a time when the median price of a California home stands at $550,000, the idea of asking almost $800K for a fire-gutted house in Bernal Heights has attracted a predictable flurry of attention since the listing surfaced on Reddit over the weekend. The photos included in the listing capture the devastation of the fire:
Unsurprisingly, the media latched on to the listing for 121 Gates as a bellwether indication of San Francisco's utterly bonkers, scarcity-fueled housing market.
Curbed SF, a housing news site, looked at the listing for 121 Gates and concluded:
It doesn't appear to matter what condition a San Francisco house is in these days. So long as the property rests squarely within the city boundaries, the potential value of the mere dirt under the foundations will drive buyer interest.
Indeed, despite the fire, the dirt under that foundation is very well situated.
To start, 121 Gates is located in Bernal Heights, which has a very fixed and highly coveted supply of single-family homes, which currently sell for a median price of about $1.5 million. Also, 121 Gates is a block from Cortland Ave., and the property has a swell view of the waterfront to the east. On top of all that, 121 Gates comes with RH-1 zoning and an existing residential structure, which means the renovation rebuild of the house will allow the new owners to bypass the expensive morass of San Francisco's permitting process for new construction.
For all those reasons, the realtor for the property told Business Insider, a national news site, that the teardown, fire-gutted house at 121 Gates may actually be under-priced:
The home was "completely gutted" in a fire in 2016, and the new owners will need to demolish what's left, according to realtor Jim Laufenberg.
"I suspect it will sell for more than what I'm asking," Laufenberg told Business Insider, adding that the seller listed the property below market value to incite interest in the first few weeks.
Video Captures Bad Bike Accident on Steeps of Cortland
August 8, 2017 / Todd_Lappin	/ 90 Comments
Neighbors who live along the eastern end of Cortland Avenue are puzzling over a security camera video that captured a frightening bicycle accident at the southeast corner of Cortland and Bronte.
The accident, which occurred last Thursday morning, August 3, may have also involved a Cadillac SUV. While the exact sequence of events is unclear, the cyclist may have lost control after the Cadillac turned left onto Bronte while traveling west on Cortland.
The cyclist has not been identified, and there is no further information about the cyclist's condition. Neighbors say the Cadillac left the scene after the accident, and the driver has also not been identified.
Thursday: Dispensary to Host Fundraiser for Rocket Dog Rescue
July 19, 2017 July 19, 2017 / Todd_Lappin	/ 4 Comments
This Thursday, July 20, the Harvest Dispensary on 29th Street in La Lengua will host a fundraiser for Rocket Dog Rescue.
As you may recall, Rocket Dog suffered a financial blow last month when the canine-rescue group's founder was mugged near her Bernal Heights home. Harvest founder Marty Higgins tells Bernalwood:
Cannabis dispensary Harvest off Mission teamed up with The Front Porch to host a special fundraiser this Thursday July 20th from 6-10pm to raise money for Rocket Dog Rescue.
As reported on Bernalwood, the owner of Rocket Dog was forcibly robbed of their funded dollars last month. 100% of ticket sales and all proceeds will go to Rocket Dog Rescue.
The $50 ticket includes an eighth of Alegria Organic cannabis, a dab bar by Brite labs, home style fried chicken from SF's Front Porch, exotic infused cannabis cocktails from award winning mixologist Alex Riddle, DJ Duserock, along with raffle prizes and a silent auction.
Harvest off Mission felt it imperative to support Rocket Dog Rescue after the appalling crime. One of the best ways to improve our community is to stand by our community organizations, especially in times like this. The robbery of Pali [Rocket Dog Rescue cofounder] was not only horrific but extremely untimely as the money stolen came from a fundraiser.
Tickets for the event can be purchased here.
Only individuals with legally recognized Medical Cannabis Identification Cards or a verifiable, written recommendation from a physician for medical cannabis may attend this event.

Chainlink Fence Art Installation Unites Neighbors Working to Rebuild
Completed installation on Mission Street last week. Photo: The artist via CurbedSF
Last week, a new art installation appeared on the chain-link fence that spans the vacant Mission Street lot near 29th Street where Cole Hardware stood before the 2016 fire.
Brock Keeling at CurbedSF got the scoop:
Almost one year after his "Home Street Home" piece appeared along beleaguered Division Street, a local artist, who has requested anonymity, has completed another work. Once again he uses a chainlink fence for a canvas, but this time the message is different. In fact, it's incomplete, which is exactly how he wants it.
"Given the history of the neighborhood, the fire, loss, and the displacement of so many residents, it felt appropriate to use the quote, but to not finish it," says the artist. "This leaves the meaning open to interpretation. Each person will fill in the blank on their own."
Members from Galería de la Raza and Secession Art and Design helped tie the final product together.
Neighbor Eden Stein from Secession Art and Design was part of the team that helped install the piece, and when Bernalwood spoke to her last week, her face was still sunburned from a day spent attaching little flags to the fence.
Neighbor Eden said working on the project had been a powerful and uplifting experience, so we asked her to tell us about it. Here's Neighbor Eden's story about the making of the chain-link art installation:
My passion is running Secession Art & Design and also being President of the Mission Bernal Merchants Association. This is my home and community.
One year ago, I did not know all of the merchants of the 3300 Block where the fire occurred, and now we are family. Something happens when you go through a hardship together, like a fire, and all you want to do is help. For this past year I have fundraised, listened, supported, done advocacy to connect merchants with city agencies, and been someone that the merchants can depend on when they can't get an answer.
This past year I have gotten to know the owners of Playa Azul, Cole Hardware, El Grand Taco Loco, and the 3300 Club. My co-corridor coordinator, Ani Rivera, joined the MBMA team this year and we were so excited to get a small grant to do a temporary beautification project on the Playa Azul and Cole Hardware fence. Ani is the director of Galleria De la Raza and lives in Mission Bernal.
Playa Azul is going through the planning process to rebuild, and they wanted a facade to let people know they are coming back. Urban quilt artist, Amy Ahlstrom met with the Sanchez family to create a coming soon sign. She photographed the mother and daughter, and the family gave us a photo of their grandmother; three strong women that are determined to rebuild the restaurant. The sign is based on their exterior sign that was one of the only things left after the fire.
Unfortunately, not even 24 hours after installing the Playa Azul sign, somebody painted over it with house paint, along with graffiti on the 3300 building.
But this artwork is not graffiti. This is an approved project by the city and property owners of Playa Azul. This is public art. A new panel has been ordered and will replace the damaged panel.
A local artist came up with the design for The Cole Hardware fence: 2000 plastic pieces make up the lettering that reads from across the street, or passing by on the bus, THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE…. You get to fill in the blank. Home? Cole Hardware? Whatever is special to you?
So many merchants and residents lost their businesses and homes. Where did they go? This really changed our community, and we hope they can come back. During the install, everyone who walked by had a story to tell about what they needed from Cole.
I could barely sleep on Tuesday night in anticipation of these art installations going up on Wednesday. I woke up early to help install. A beautiful crew from Galleria De Raza Gallery on 24th Street volunteered and we had a great time talking and installing. We even had a few people passing by that took time from their day to stop and help.
All day long the community came out and talked about how much they missed this block and all the merchants. Three people were brought to tears knowing that Playa Azul was actually coming back. A women slammed on her breaks, double parked, and gave me a hug. This project is about bringing people together, and a message that the people and merchants that make this neighborhood are on our mind and we are right by their side as they rebuild.
El Paisa is the first business closed by the fire to reopen on the block. At one point in the day the owner, Jose told all of us installing it was time to take a break and eat. We sat in his restaurant that is filled with so much love and persistence and had an incredible lunch that meant much more than food.
Thank you to everyone who made this day happen!

Wayward Truck Gets Really Stuck on Northeast Bernal Streets
July 12, 2017 / Todd_Lappin	/ 8 Comments
Stuck trucks are a Bernal Heights tradition.
This is because to look at Bernal Heights on a map is to see a tempting variety of shortcuts which give no indication that our hilly topography and narrow, winding streets are way too tight for many big vehicles to traverse. Indeed, the advent of digital navigation tools like Google Maps and Waze may have actually helped reduce the frequency of the problem, by actively routing drivers away from Bernal streets where calamity and shame are likely to ensue.
Last night a FedEx tractor-trailer driver learned the hard way that the streets of northeast Bernal Heights are best avoided in a big-rig. Neighbor Ryan was on the scene:
Fedex truck jammed into the sharp corner at Peralta and Florida, been stuck for well over an hour, blocking the street.
… where the truck remained for a few more hours into the night, when a recovery crew arrived to extract the hapless truck and its humiliated driver from the unfortunate intersection.

Act Against Apartheid: Boycott Shell!
Leaflet asking people to picket Shell stations on Saturdays from March 18 to April 29, 1989 organized by the Seattle Shell Boycott Campaign, which is a project of the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), Cascadia Greens, the Church Council of Greater Seattle, the Seattle Labor Committee Against Apartheid, Seattle I.W.W., the Seattle Nonviolent Action Group, and U.W. Students Against Apartheid. The leaflet also advertises a funeral procession to the Shell distribution center on Harbor Island to commemorate the Sharpeville massacre. Royal Dutch/Shell (the parent company of Shell Oil) is a major sustainer of the racist system of apartheid. It has violated the international oil embargo against South Africa by shipping large qualities of crude oil there, including supplying oil products to the South African military and police. Shell is the target of an international boycott campaign to force it to withdraw completely from South Africa. The leaflet says the campaign is a project of American Friends Service Committee, Cascadia Greens, Church Council of Greater Seattle, Seattle Labor Committee Against Apartheid, Seattle I.W.W., Seattle Nonviolent Action Group, and U.W. Students Against Apartheid.

MEET SANDVIK – OUR STORIES
Partnership benefits communities
Sara Svensson and Rasmus Lundvik from Engineers Without Borders at the The Institute of Technology at Linköping University, Sweden, are upgrading the power system at a girls' school in Chonyonyo, Tanzania.
Sandvik has signed a long-term partnership agreement with Engineers Without Borders Sweden. The idea is to contribute technical expertise, project management skills and international experience to strengthen the NGO's volunteer projects.
Stable infrastructure is crucial to a well-functioning community, and it's this premise that lies at the heart of the non-governmental organization (NGO) Engineers Without Borders. Through many of its development projects, the NGO focuses on achieving sustainable solutions for energy and water supply.
"Above all, we're active in Africa," says Jan Byfors, former Chief Technology Officer at construction group NCC and voluntary deputy chair of Engineers Without Borders Sweden. "Around 20 projects are in progress, including building toilet systems in Tanzania, installing solar cell electricity to provide lighting in Kenyan schools, and generating energy from cow manure in Ghana."
Corporate partners add experience and expertise
Byfors has a long professional career behind him. Now, he says, he hopes to be able to contribute useful experience to an organization that to a great extent is run by working groups at Sweden's universities and institutes of technology. Out of approximately 1,100 members, 70 percent are students, and engaging senior people with professional experience has presented a challenge.
Jessica Alm from Sandvik and Jan Byfors from Engineers Without Borders Sweden sign a partnership agreement."This is why corporate partnerships are important to us," Byfors says. "We need partners with experience and expertise from different industries. The new agreement with Sandvik entails both financial support and support in the form of resources, which means that we can broaden and strengthen our voluntary operations with a greater undertaking in the field."
He adds that Sandvik's extensive international network can greatly benefit the partnership.
A win-win agreement
Jessica Alm, Sandvik's Head of Group Communications, agrees. "We are, for example, active in South Africa and have sound knowledge of several regions where local partners may be needed," she says. "As a global company, we want to provide technical expertise and create community benefit, while giving our own employees the opportunity to get involved in humanitarian projects and feel pride in the company. It also makes us an even more attractive employer, particularly among young people."
Alm adds that a further positive aspect of the partnership with Engineers Without Borders is the organization's strong link to the universities of technology in Sweden.
We're seeing great opportunities for our students to forge clear contacts with the corporate world via these joint volunteering projects.
Jonathan Balsvik is group leader for Engineers Without Borders' student organization at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and will act as project manager for the organization's partnership with Sandvik.
"We're seeing great opportunities for our students to forge clear contacts with the corporate world via these joint volunteering projects," Balsvik says. "And as Sandvik has offices all over the world, we can also benefit from their professional contacts in countries where we help build infrastructure of various kinds. We often need to find solutions for transporting the equipment to the location, for example."
Projects to boost interest in science and technology
In addition to its international projects, Engineers Without Borders also works locally in its own surroundings. For example, Balsvik has been involved in volunteer work in socially deprived suburbs, where the organization provides children and young people with help with homework and programming workshops.
"This is a way of generating interest in science and technology," Balsvik says. "In the long term, it may encourage more people to apply to these types of academic courses, even those from groups whose parents don't come from an academic background."
Topics: Sustainability
Sandvik is an engineering group in mining and rock excavation, metal-cutting and materials technology.

We' ve recently torn down our old fence and replaced it with a new redwood fence. Several days ago, our male dog began "coughing", which sounded like he was trying to cough up a furball. Doing research tonight on the internet, it appears that this could be kennel cough caused by excess dust. My husband and I read that along with antibiotics, they often give cough medicine. Does anyone know the type? Is it in liquid or pill form?
this one says, guaifenesin-based cough syrup. <<http://www.2ndchance.info/cough.htm << very good article, too!
Kennel cough isn't caused by dust. It's a contagious disease (viral/bacterial complex- canine parainfluenza virus and Bordatella bronchiseptica). Dogs get kennel cough through contact with other dogs, especially if they've not been vaccinated. It's typically a hacking ("honking") dry cough, which often makes the dog retch.
If he's not come into contact with other dogs, it's possible that the dust is causing irritation to his airways, or it could be coincidental. If it doesn't settle, or he's getting distressed by it, have him checked by your vet to ensure that there's no secondary infection going on. To answer your question, the cough syrup used comes in liquid form. The most commonly used one is called 'Linctol' syrup.
It would be my advice to contact your vet . I wouldn't give any cough medicine to your dog without asking a vet first . If you are already established with a clinic then you may just be able to call and get advice .
I really do not suggest trying to treat the dog with cough medicine for a cough you really do not know what is causing it. There is several reasons your dog is coughing from heartworms to allergies. I treated a dog with a childrens medicine for a cough and it caused seizures. What works on one may not work on another.
The dust from doing the fence would not cause kennel cough, it could be allergic to the dust since that is when it started. If it is an allergy, it is safe to give benadryl 1mg per pound of body weight.
Allergies to pollen, house dust, molds, insect bites, and foods can cause coughing, sneezing, and general itchiness.


We spent part of our time at the nearby senior living building interviewing residents in their 80's and 90's. The students created their interview questions and played "What is your favorite?" In small groups. We were lucky to have several high school students that wanted to participate. The 3 generations had non-stop conversations and many laughs. Students learned about things of the past and a lot about needs and wants as they soon realized that they have many more amenities and possessions than the seniors did. We look forward to spending more time with our new "old" friends.


Transfer of academic credits is at the discretion of the School of Engineering and the individual departments within it. Courses must respond to a student's concentration and fulfill department major study requirements to be credited to the NYU transcript and counted for Tandon requirements.
Students must get signatures from the corresponding academic department of the course. For example, math courses need approval from the Mathematics department, humanities courses need approval from the Technology, Culture & Society department, and civil courses from the Civil Engineering department. Departmental contact information can be found online. Students must then get approval from their major academic adviser, the Office of Global Services (if international), and the Office of Academic Affairs.
Students are required to consult with their academic advisor to formulate a detailed academic plan and course load for every semester of study abroad. The course preapproval form must be filled out prior to departure. This step is essential in aiding the proper transfer of academic credits earned abroad. For current information on courses, please refer to the host university's published materials.
While abroad, students must remain in contact with their academic advisor and the Office of Academic Affairs and keep them apprised of their academic progress and any changes in their academic plan.
Students must present proper travel documents in order to be eligible for study abroad.
Students are responsible for checking with the host country's consulate to determine whether they need a visa or other entry requirement. Please remember that the entry requirement for U.S. citizens may be different than for lawful permanent residents, or citizens of other countries residing in the United States. For additional information or assistanc on visa requirements, please contact the Office of Global Services.
For additional information, please contact the Office of Undergraduate Academics.
Students are required to complete the online application and depending on the program, supplementary application materials required by the host academic university or program.
Students with special health and physical needs should inform the Office of Undergraduate Academics. Together, they will determine whether these needs can be fulfilled during a student's stay abroad.
Students with special physical and health conditions and chronic illnesses should discuss their travel plans with their health care provider, who can determine how best to address on-going treatment, therapy, or other concerns.
Students should determine if their current health care insurance provides the same level of coverage overseas. New York University provides a medical insurance plan for all domestic students enrolled for 9 or more credits. While coverage under this policy is available 24 hours a day worldwide, international heath care providers vary in their acceptance of particular plan provisions.
Participants in the study abroad program may also apply for medical coverage through Geoblue. If you want to sign up for this insurance, please fill out the Insurance Application.
NYU requires students participating in the study abroad program to certify that they have adequate health and medical insurance for the duration of their stay overseas. This includes medical evacuation/repatriation coverage comparable to that offered by HTH Worldwide Insurance Services.
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) offers information about geographic health recommendations, specific disease outbreaks and other information related to health concerns in foreign countries. We encourage you to visit the CDC's website for more information.
Students going abroad must familiarize themselves with conditions in the country to which they are traveling. The Department of State provides current information about country conditions, and how they may impact Americans traveling abroad. Consular Affairs also contains information about entry regulations, health conditions, crime and security, as well as the locations and addresses of consulates and embassies. If you have questions or need additional information please contact the Office for Undergraduate Academics.
NYU Traveler was created to provide the NYU community with tools and services for their travel needs and to help keep them safer. University-related travel may be booked or registered through NYU Traveler. Only NYU netID holders are eligible for direct access to the NYU Traveler booking and registration tools.
By booking through Egencia, your travel plans will be automatically registered with the NYU Traveler trip registration tool, which NYU has created to provide you with up-to-the-minute information of potential threats to your safety during your travels, and to enable NYU to get in touch with you to render aid in the event of an emergency.
If you choose to book with another travel agency, you should register your travel and/or update your itinerary on NYU's safety service.
It is important for you to provide the School of Engineering with your address, phone number, and e-mail address so that you continue to receive important information and updates related to life and study at the School of Engineering while you are studying abroad.
