I can't believe how overdue this post is considering I'm pretty local to West Palm Beach… we moved to West Palm Beach in 2005 and have lived just slightly north the past eight years or so. As much time as we spend in the city (i.e. nearly daily) it wasn't until recently that I finally enjoyed a girls weekend with some of my best friends in one of my favorite cities. Not only was it so much fun, I can adequately say it's completely worthy of an entire weekend… whether as a staycation or if you're flying to the area. By the way, PBI airport is basically my favorite in the universe; it's so quick and easy and about six minutes from Downtown West Palm Beach.
if you're here "in season" (October through May), make it a priority to get to the city's Saturday morning GreenMarket, filled with more than 70 vendors including fresh fruits and vegetables, prepared foods, great bites & everything in between. Be sure to try the cider donuts, by the way! The market is located at the base of Clematis Street by Flagler Drive. It's the perfect way to get your morning started and enjoy some people watching at the same time.
often the best thing to do is check out a city by foot. CityPlace is the more national brand outdoor center filled with retailers (Anthro, H&M, etc) and restaurants, while the hub of Downtown West Palm Beach is known for its homegrown businesses. You can walk or take the free trolley to easily go between locations.
Take a walk along the Flagler Drive waterfront (there's a spacious walking path) or make the most of your waterfront weekend thanks to Visit Palm Beach, which offers rentals like jet skis, paddle boards, and kayaks, plus evening cruises & more.
for a dose of culture, the Norton Museum just south of Downtown West Palm is a must. The museum is currently undergoing a massive renovation and expansion, however exhibitions are still happening; check the site for info.
right over the bridge on the other side of the Instracoastal is home to Palm Beach, one of the most affluent communities in the world. Bring your bathing suits to spend time at the beach, or enjoy a stroll along Worth Avenue, home to all the designer shops (pop into Pizza al Fresco for lunch and then head for a sweet treat at Piccolo Gelato — all in Via Mizner).
whether you're shopping for home or your wardrobe, the consignment and antique shop scene here is among the best. Northwood Village in West Palm Beach (just north of Downtown) is awesome for fantastic finds, and you can't go wrong by treating yourself to a shake at Relish while you're there. Head to "Antique Row" — also known as Dixie Highway — for vintage shopping at its best. City Girl Consigment is a favorite for great designer clothes & accessories, and there is so much more for your home. As a heads up, you likely need a car to make this feasible. Top spots include Mecox, Heath & Company, Elephant's Foot, Circa Who and even places that could be home to hidden gems like the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League shop.
The Palm Beach Outlets is only a few years old and such a great spot. If you're staying in Downtown WPB, it's an easy seven-minute drive and a fun way to spend the afternoon with your girls. The J. Crew Factory, Saks Off Fifth, and Banana Republic are favorites, and also part of the outlets in a detached building you must take advantage of DSW, Nordstrom Rack, Old Navy & Ulta. The Whole Foods is also incredible (seriously, best salad bar situation of life!) and a great way to stock up your room as well.
What better way to experience a city than through your belly, amiright?! I've heard such great things about the West Palm Beach Food Tour and is on my personal list as well.
if you have the convenience of a car, be sure to stop by Flower & Fringe, located at 310 S. Dixie Highway, a super cute floral shop that's also perfect for the 'gram. It's a great stop if you're visiting anyone, and they host workshops with lots of fab businesses in the area… worth checking in advance of your stay.
always worth checking out to see if there's a fun show or comedian planned during your trip! You can find Kravis here, and Palm Beach Improv — located at CityPlace — here.
the art scene has taken major shape here in recent years thanks to Canvas (an outdoor art show where artists, muralists, etc created masterpieces throughout the city). Perfect backdrops for your photos and a cool way to explore the creative component of the city, you're destined to see cool art pop up all over the place… even under a bridge or two!
Grandview Public Market: one of the newest additions to the West Palm Beach scene, you must head to Grandview, our new chef-driven food hall. It's slightly on the pricey side (IMO), but I haven't been disappointed yet. You can go anytime during the day — Rabbit Coffee is the best if you're going there early or need a mid-afternoon boost — and I've tried nearly every spot there (there's about 15, plus a cute little shop). At The Corner, you must get the mushroom pizza. Trust. And, the salmon pokerrito (like a poke bowl in burrito form) is so delicious. Wine and beer is served, and there's live music at night. Check out the web site for the full scoop.

Such a great post! Even being a south FL local, it's easy to miss all the great offerings just an hour-ish away. Definitely bookmarking this for our next staycation or day trip to Palm Beach.
This looks sooo fun. Oh how I miss the beach, and my girl squad! ha!
Bookmarking this for the future- thaaanks!

In your first visit to our office our emphasis will be diagnostic evaluation of your dental health. We will determine what dental work was previously done, the state of your current oral health, and what future services might be needed. Then we can set up the necessary future appointments, give you estimates of what we anticipate the costs may be, what your insurance carrier may cover, and what insurance copays you may have.
In this visit, you will first see the hygienist, who will take digital bitewing x-rays to assess if there are any cavities present in areas unable to seen by a visual exam. They will also take a panoral x-ray, which provides a panoramic view of both upper and lower arches, including the tempero-mandibular joints. This enables them to assess what's going on below the gum line, including any abscesses, bone loss, periodontal disease, or impacted teeth. It also provides an additional opportunity to check for cavities in teeth other than molars. The hygienist and dentist will also conduct an oral cancer examination when possible, with a Velscope Oral Cancer Screening device.
The hygienist will then use a probe to measure the depth of the gum tissue around each tooth to both assess the periodontal health of the gums and to determine if there is any sign of active gum disease, including bone loss from buildup of plaque and calculus below the gumline.
Finally, one of our doctors will meet with the you to do a thorough examination. He or she will look at the x-rays with you, and will examine your teeth and gums. The doctors will have the hygienist note any areas that need restorative services and then will collaborate with you on a treatment plan.
During the treatment planning phase, the doctor will discuss the treatment options and make recommendations. Once the plan is agreed on, pre-estimates for costs can be given and future appointments can be scheduled. We also can help you apply for CareCredit or CitiHealth (for more insurance information please see this page dealing with billing, insurances, and financing).
Please note that this exam does not include a cleaning, as we make assessing your dental health our primary objective in this first appointment. Additional appointments are required to clean and/or perform the necessary dental procedures you may need on your teeth.
Children's New Patient Visits are very similar but include fluoride and sealants and will exclude Velscope Oral Cancer Screening.
We look forward to meeting you, assessing your oral health, and helping you reach your optimal dental health goals, so please call us today at (207) 947 – 0717 or Request an Appoinment Online to set up your appointment.

I'll be out West for work purposes for the rest of this week so blogging will likely experience an interruption. I'll be back Saturday. Maybe by then Hamas will have calmed down, enough fraudulent ballots will have been discovered to invalidate Obama's election victory and Obama will have approved the Keystone pipeline.


Hello, spring! It's time to clean out the cobwebs — in your body. You know, the build-up from holiday eating, too little exercise or the winter blues. Ayurveda has you covered, because it's the only health system that accounts for physiological changes that come with each season.
In past articles, we've talked about the doshas — three distinct classifications for your primary body/mind makeup (prakriti). This is where your holistic self-knowledge begins.
Learn about your own unique combination by taking the dosha quiz on our website.
Aware of our prakriti, we understand our own nature, physically and emotionally. Being aware of our dosha imbalance, or vikriti, as it starts, we can take steps to bring ourselves back into balance.
Individuals are characterized by the doshas, and so are times of day and the seasons. Spring is Kapha season. While the earth begins its renewal, the influences of the season may be felt by those with primarily Kapha dosha. We may feel sluggish, lethargic or sad, and have trouble sleeping or waking up. We may be prone to respiratory issues or indigestion. However, the weightiness of Kapha isn't all bad. It is also responsible for your sweet, stable temperament, long-term memory, strength, stamina, and sound sleep.
Fear not. Ayurveda can help.
Reduce heavy, oily and cold foods, as these increase Kapha. Reduce or avoid red meat, processed and canned foods, coffee, and alcohol.
And of course, drink plenty of water! Daily water consumption will help your body flush ama (toxic build-up).
If the heaviness of winter has left you on autopilot, shake things up with new experiences — get out and enjoy the sunny weather! Feel alive with vigorous exercise, a little each day.
Yoga asanas that fire you up and make you move will also help with digestion and elimination, as well as opening up the chest and lungs, helping with congestion. Favor uplifting, heart-opening backbends — Bhujangasana, Dhanurasana, and Ustrasana; invigorating inversions — Salamba Sarvangasana and Salamba Sirsasana; and digestion-stimulating poses — Navasana and Apanasana.
Tuning into nature's change of season, we can live our lives empowered through our own knowledge and the use of the ancient system of Ayurveda to restore and maintain balance in our minds and bodies, and as a result enjoy good health.
Start with digestion (Organic Digest Tone, Triphala Plus) and then add in our detox-specific products.
Healthy spring beginnings start now!

HANOVER COUNTY, Va. -- Two people were arrested for the murder of a Hopewell taxi cab driver. The Hanover Sheriff's Office confirmed Alisa N. Dejesus, 19, and Dyshawn D. Simpson, 20, of Richmond, were charged with first-degree murder in connection to the death of James Wells. Both suspects were arrested Monday on Carolina Avenue in Richmond. Both were being held without bond at Pamunkey Regional Jail. They are due back in court this May after an initial court appearance on Tuesday.
Last August, James Wells' body was found in his burned out taxi cab. Hanover investigators said Wells drove his 2004 gray Chevrolet minivan taxi from the Econo Lodge on Colonel Corner Drive in Hopewell to Mechanicsville where he was found dead.
"Investigators have determined that in the early morning hours of Saturday, August 9, James M. Wells, a driver for Marshall Cab, was hired by Dejesus and Simpson for a cab fare from Hopewell to the Mechanicsville area," Hanover Sheriff's spokesman Major Mike Trice wrote in an email. "Upon arrival to the Mechanicsville area, an altercation occurred which incapacitated the victim. James Wells ultimately died of injuries related to the fire."
Last month, investigators released photos of a vehicle that may be connected to Wells' murder.
"Surveillance images at that time at the Econo Lodge captured an image of a vehicle," Hanover County Sheriff's spokesman Major Mike Trice said at the time. "Investigators are seeking to locate and identify the owner. The vehicle appears to be a dark colored, four- door Cadillac with at white stripped rear passenger tire."
Malibu Wells, James' widow, said this does bring some sort of closure for the family, but there's still many questions. Wells said she and James Wells had no relationship with the two suspects.
"I've never seen these people before in my life and they took away the most important person in my life," she said.
"I am thankful for the direct assistance from Hanover Fire Marshal's Office, Hopewell Police Department, and Richmond Police Department during the course of this investigation. The hard work of Investigators, regional support, and guidance from our Commonwealth's Attorney Trip Chalkley contributed to the successful resolution of this case. The media has also contributed to resolving this case and we appreciate their professional reporting. We will continue our efforts to support this case to a successful prosecution," Hanover Sheriff Colonel David R. Hines said.
Weeks after Wells' death, the Wells family established a reward fund. James' father, David Wells, said he hoped the reward fund would bring in new leads.
"I know somebody has to know something," he said. "Somebody had to have seen something."

Twitter Extends Commitment to Boutique Office in Chelsea
Twitter will continue to occupy all of the office space at Columbia Property Trust's 249 W. 17th St. The REIT signed the social media company to a five-year extension of its five-year lease at 215,000 square feet, continuing its presence at the boutique Chelsea property through 2030.
Twitter's New York office has been located at the Chelsea property since the building was fully renovated in 2014. It's the company's second-largest space behind its San Francisco headquarters.
"We are very pleased to extend our relationship with Twitter at 249 West 17th Street," said Columbia CEO Nelson Mills. "And we're delighted that this fully renovated and highly amenitized property, located in Manhattan's premier neighborhood for leading tech and media companies, will serve as their New York home for years to come."
Christina Clark and Peter Sabesan from Cresa represented Twitter in lease negotiations. CBRE's Neil King and Paul Amrich represented Columbia.

Two-thousand-seven in Tucson ended, for us, with the visit of an out-of-town relative.
Sun-in-winter...truly therapeutic. Yes, this is a recurring theme in this blog, I know, I know...the repetition of light...but, really, the colors are brilliant, and the light does wonders for a winter-soul.
Snow on the peaks, 'fall'-color in the canyons...Our first winter in Tucson has been just brilliant.
And then, a few nights ago, Tango died in our hands.


Winemakers' Federation of Australia (WFA) and Wine Industry Suppliers Association (WISA) are warning winemakers of potential delays at the border, due to the bio-security risks involving the Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (BMSB).
A recent announcement by the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources, to tackle the biosecurity risk of BMSB entering Australia, has caused concern for wine industry suppliers due to potential delays, additional costs, and the impact of proposed cargo treatment measures of goods being imported for grape & wine production.
WFA Chief Executive Tony Battaglene said "WFA and WISA are committed to protecting the bio-security of Australia's grape and wine industry. This means a strong bio-security framework that provides the appropriate risk management strategies at the border".
WFA and WISA have been in discussions with both industry and the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources, around the import measures for winemaking equipment and additives, specifically relating to oak barrels.
There are also a range of high-risk goods that will be subject to additional onshore intervention through increased inspections.
Over the coming months, both organisations will be working with the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources, to determine pre-export and loading procedures that can be implemented, to reduce the BMSB bio-security risk posed by these shipments, and allow them to be excluded from the Target High-Risk category in the future.
For a complete list of our industry leading Oak supplier members who are working with us to manage this risk with us click here.


Great Reasons to go camping this year!
Boosts Vitamin D – This one is simple, more natural sunshine = more vitamin D. Vitamin D increases bone health, muscle strength, lean body mass, helps skin disorders and more.
Increase Endorphins which are natural pain and stress fighters.
Burn More Calories: On average you can burn around 300 calories per hour when out camping if you have a moderately active camping trip.
-Hiking & Backpacking burns 500 calories per hour.
-Walking burns 200 calories per hour.
-Playing with children burns 200 calories per hour.
We could go on about the health benefits of camping and getting outdoors, but I think you get the point.
I have so many great memories from camping as a child. When I say great, honestly many of them may not have seemed great at the time, but it's those disastrous trips that create the best memories.
This health benefit needed to be listed on it's own because it sounds absolutely crazy. Getting outdoors gives your eyes a break from screen and what is known as Computer Vision Syndrome. This is fatigue in your eyes and can cause nearsightedness. Actually, kids who play at least 2 hours outside a day were 4 times less likely to be nearsighted that those who played outside for 1 hour a day.
This one is a personal favorite of mine. I've become so attached to my phone and iPad that I've been to the point of checking them first thing when I wake up and last thing when I go to bed. That's not what I want. Sometimes it takes something like a camping trip with no internet connection to make you realize that everything you're checking in on doesn't really matter.
One of the things that really strikes our customers is how dark night really is on a secluded campsite. When your only source of light is the moon and stars, you will have a new appreciation for true darkness.
A benefit of this incredible darkness is some of the best star gazing you will experience. Open your tent roof or set your sleeping bags out under the stars and enjoy a great viewing experience.
When you expose yourself to only natural light, your internal clock quickly resets itself to rise with the sun and sleep shortly after sunset. Recent studies have shown that we actually sleep better when we set our sleep cycles with those of the sun. This is the way people have operated for thousands of years. Not to mention, camping gives you an excuse to go to bed by 9!
So what are you waiting for? Book your next camping holiday!!
It is nice to see how this park has developed and matured with extra trees and shrubs blending into the forest environment and the Dower House itself mellow and welcoming an ideal centre from which to explore Breckland.

Use your R/C transmitter with pc software simulators!
All those nice R/C simulators and no hardware to control them. I do have a hitec prism 7 though. This project will propose an interface to connect the prism 7 to the PC's USB port. This will let you use prism 7 (and probably any other) ppm/pcm based transmitter with software such as FMS, probably also ms flight simulator, if you so wish.
This interface will not work with Phoenix, Reflex XTR, Realflight, Aerofly etc. Those sims are typically shipped with a custom joystick with some specific id's and doing some authentication back and forth between the simulator and the input device.
Nice transistor and two resistors to reduce transmitter pulses (9-12V) to uC friendly 5V.
For prototyping the Atmel USB key (AT90USBKey) is great. The one and only additional, but important part, is level conversion so we don't burn the uC: One transistor and two resistors with about the right resistance, not to large to miss edges, not to small to avoid oscillation.
The transmitter signal is tapped of the Prism 7 in the rf-module socket.
For the schematics, please note that the power module is optional and not really tested - it will also depend on your transmitter, although ~9-10 V is usually a safe assumtion.
The ppm signal from the transmitter is a puls-train with varying distance(time) from the previous edge (nominal to 1.5ms if I recall correctly). n-number of channels are transmitted and then there is a short pause until it all repeats.
A nice way of capturing this is to setup a timer and pin-level-change interrupt. Reset the timer on every positive or negative edge (depending on your transmitter) and convert that time to a 8-bit value for the USB HID report. We sync by letting the timer run out.

Oil of Oregano (made from the wild, mountain grown plant) is a potent antiseptic, killing germs. Research proves that it is a highly effective for killing a wide range of fungi, yeast and bacteria, as well as parasites and viruses. Our Oregano Oil may be taken internally as well as used topically.
Internal Use: add a few drops of Oil of Oregano into olive oil, or take 3-4 drops as needed under the tongue and hold in mouth before swallowing.
Topical use: rub a small amount well into the affected area. Repeat as necessary two or three times a day or as directed by practitioner. If rash or irritation occurs, discontinue use.
Running nose and sinusitis: take 2 drops of the oil, rub them under the nose (NOT INSIDE THE NOSE!) and inhale deeply about 10 times.
Take 2-4 drops of the oil and rub the forehead 2-3 minutes.
Sore throat: take a half glass of lukewarm water with a little bit salt and put a few drops of the oil inside.
Stir and gargle. It helps much even after the first gargling.
In Shampoos: add a small amount of oil into shampoo. After shampooing allow to sit for a few minutes, then rinse.
In Soaps: add to pump soaps and use during showering and hand washing for excellent antisepsis.
On Gums: rub on gums and teeth for various indications. Apply one or twice daily.
For Warts or Boils: saturate the infected area(s). Cover with corn-type plaster/band-aid. Repeat dressing until lesions are clear.
Vaginal Membranes and other Genital Regions: exert caution here, as significant heat and burning sensation will result. Oregano oil is a peppery spice. For application to sensitive genital regions be sure to dilute a few drops of the oil in a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil or coconut fat. Apply as needed.
Diaper Rash or other Infantile Conditions: avoid using straight oil on infants; always dilute by placing a few drops of the oil in a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil or coconut fat. If stronger dosages are needed, use only a drop or two at a time of infantile skin.

One sprawling city! Lowering greenhouse emissions becomes a Herculean task the more Winnipeg sprawls By: Sarah Lawrynuik Posted: 7:00 PM CDT Friday, Jul. 24, 2020 Last Modified: 10:11 PM CDT Friday, Jul. 24, 2020 Updates

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 24/07/2020 (917 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Pembina, Portage, Main, Henderson Highway — all of these streets snaking their way through a growing city — used to act as principal corridors connecting the downtown core to bedroom communities that, once upon a time, stood on their own.
They tell the story of how urban sprawl was virtually carved into the DNA of the city as far back as the early 1900s.
"We really couldn't avoid it — because of the way we were set up, because there were individual cities and municipalities set up surrounding the downtown core," says Winnipeg-focused historical consultant Murray Peterson.
"The city was moving in all directions outward… you naturally had sprawl."
The nature of urban sprawl in Winnipeg has changed over that time, he says. In the beginning, it was driven, ironically, by public transport.
"Wherever the street car went, you could get development," he says.
Winnipeg from the air, 1941-1976
Now it's driven more by low-density suburban housing development, which is cheaper to build in the sticks than it is to redevelop sites within the city. New builds are "fairly significant" in several areas, says Christopher Storie, the director of the University of Winnipeg's Institute of Urban Studies.
Continuous development can be seen north of Garden City, as well as in the southwest and in the vicinity of the Island Lakes neighbourhood in the southeast, he says. The result is a city that is still pushing the outer boundaries further from the downtown core.
Based on city census data, the number of people living in Island Lakes grew from 510 in 1986 to 7,465 in 2011. In the same time period, Riverbend, located off Main Street inside the Perimeter Highway, grew from 780 people to 5,390.
Even communities with more established neighbourhoods, such as Richmond West, grew from 2,995 in 1986 to 8,240 people by 2011. These neighbourhoods are outpacing the growth rates of the city as a whole.
And the sprawl continues to the edges of the Perimeter Highway. The Waverley West development in south Winnipeg, which was given the green light in 2005, was designed for 40,000 residents by 2020.
Sage Creek, where the first home in the development to the east of Island Lakes was built in 2005, will be home to 12,000 by 2028.
"We have continued to sprawl in a classic sense — the single-family or light-density residential housing — towards the perimeters of the city," Storie says.
These patterns of development do more than increase infrastructure spending for the municipality and lengthen the time it takes to drive from one end of the city to the other. The way a city develops creates the patterns in which its people live. And when it comes to climate change, they create entrenched behaviours that make lowering greenhouse gas emissions a Herculean task.
Statistics Canada did a side-by-side comparison of data gathered in 1996 and 2016 to look at how continued sprawl — not only in Winnipeg but across the country — was changing the dynamics of how far people travelled to reach work.
FILE - In this May 15, 2008, file photo, motorists sit in a Chicago traffic jam. More than 800 rear-seat passengers who weren't wearing seat belts were killed in 2018 in U.S. traffic crashes, and states aren't making enough progress in getting people to buckle up, the Governors Highway Safety Association says in a report released Monday, Nov. 18, 2019. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast, File)
The study of long-form census data found that in Winnipeg the most concentrated place of work is in the downtown core, with 47.5 per cent of jobs within five kilometres of city hall, while another 40.4 per cent of jobs are between five and 10 kilometres of city hall. But fewer people are living in areas with short commutes to this high-density employment zone.
In 1996, 36.8 per cent of Winnipeggers lived within five kilometres of the city centre. Two decades later that number had fallen to 28.4 per cent, which is still the highest percentage of people located in close proximity of the urban core when compared to the seven other Canadian cities studied. But every city saw an increase in dispersal of people away from the city core.
During that 20-year period, Winnipeg saw an increase of more than 20,000 people using a vehicle as the primary means of transport to get to work, which is now the preferred mode of 78.8 per cent of the city's roughly 345,000 commuters.
So, it is no surprise then when emissions reports show residents' passenger vehicles are responsible for approximately one-third of all the emissions generated in the city.
High-density builds picking up steam
In Winnipeg since 2000, more than 28,000 new building permits have been issued for single-family homes, with peaks in construction coming in 2012 and 2017.
In the same period, medium-density options saw meagre advances with only 2,100 semi-detached home permits issued, and 4,700 row house permits issued.
Higher-density options advanced on par with single-family residences. The city issued permits for 25,000 apartment-style units to be constructed.
And while permits for single-family dwellings have remained remarkably stable since 2000, permits for apartments have been increasing steadily. In 2000, permits were issued for 119 units. In 2019, permits for 3,145 units were issued.
Storie says it is good to see progress on more density development, but it still doesn't mitigate the continued pressure on the city to continue its outward expansion.
While it was a pattern developed very early in Winnipeg history, it was further cemented in the postwar years, Storie explains, wherein the inner-city housing was the more affordable option, and thus was often where new immigrants would live.
John Woods / Winnipeg Free Press Christopher Storie, director of the University of Winnipeg Institute of Urban Studies, suggests incentives may be required to encourage Winnipeggers to favour public transportation over their cars.
But as the family began to generate more wealth, they typically moved out to single-family homes in the suburbs with more space, and they did this likely at the same time they were able to afford a car for transport into the core, he says.
In the postwar years, sprawl and its connection and reliance on transit systems was effectively severed as suburbanites became car-bound for their commutes.
"And then as we sort of added a highly consumer lifestyle to the mix, the need to not only house the humans within the family, but then the stuff that comes with the shifting lifestyle, the move towards disposable, cheap items.
"And it all just begins to group together, and the cost of building housing, and large housing… is much more affordable building on land at the perimeter compared with infill and redevelopment in the interior," Storie says.
The city, as part of its climate strategy passed by council in 2018, has begun addressing urban sprawl and has committed to infill making up 50 per cent of all residential development by 2030 in order to increase the city's density.
Winnipeg's sluggish, often indecisive response to climate change has placed it well behind other cities in Canada
JOHN WOODS / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS files Despite the city's goal of increasing active and public transportation usage, a vast majority of Winnipeggers still prefer to commute by car.
Posted: 7:00 PM CDT Friday, Jul. 24, 2020
There are many instances where municipal governments find themselves hamstrung, victims to the whims of larger governments with bigger spending power and more expansive jurisdictions.
But in the case of one of the biggest looming threats to cities — climate change — municipal governments have an overwhelming amount of power to make meaningful policy moves. Yet, the City of Winnipeg is dragging its feet on consequential action.
In 2018, Winnipeg adopted a climate-action plan aimed at lowering greenhouse-gas emissions generated within the city limits by 20 per cent by 2030, using 2011 levels as a baseline. By 2050, the goal is to have reduced emissions by 80 per cent.
This is below what the federal government committed the country to in the 2015 Paris Agreement; Canada pledged to lower emissions by 30 per cent by 2030, below 2005 levels — a greater percentage on a lower benchmark year. Following those commitments, the federal government also committed to pursuing net-zero emissions by 2050.
"We want to be considering that as the city spreads out more, then we would expect to see that the number and length of person vehicle (trips) are increasing and other (transportation) options may become less viable or more costly for the city to implement," says Lindsay Mierau, manager of the city's Office of Sustainability.
"And that has direct implications for addressing greenhouse-gas emissions."
The city plans to focus infill development in strategic areas close to transit corridors, and it will also move focus away from single-detached residences that are more energy intensive than their denser counterparts, Mierau says.
This is one aspect of the city's climate plan that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20 per cent by 2030, when compared with 2011 emissions.
In order to limit global warming to 1.5 C this century, emissions need to be reduced by 7.6 per cent every year between 2020 and 2030.
Storie says the kinds of goals the city is laying out for infill will require policy changes since it is often a secondary choice for developers because it is typically more costly, given land-acquisition costs.
Coun. Brian Mayes, chairman of the Standing Committee on Water and Waste, Riverbank Management and the Environment, says he thinks focusing on density alone is an oversimplification of the problem. There has already been focus on reimagining suburbs to be more complete communities that people don't have to leave as often, he says.
Then, there is the problem that if single-family homes end up being in short supply in Winnipeg, there's nothing stopping people from buying in neighbouring communities and taking their tax dollars with them, he says.
"It's all billed as if we just need to build up," he says. "Well that's a bit simplistic. We do need to have people living downtown, but there's tens of thousands of people who don't want that." he says.
"We do need to have people living downtown, but there's tens of thousands of people who don't want that."–Coun. Brian Mayes
Winnipeg is far from the only city to struggle with urban sprawl. It's a question that's been raised in towns and cities across North America, in large part because there is no shortage of land.
New, imaginative approaches to sustainable neighbourhood development are being considered across the country and around the world. For example, in Edmonton, the city is undertaking a first-of-its-kind community — called Blatchford.
Planners are attempting to reimagine the concept of a neighbourhood with pedestrian streets, relegating cars to back lanes. The community will be collectively powered using geothermal heat-pump technology to provide more efficient heating and cooling systems. And local businesses and recreational facilities will be integrated within the community in an attempt to bring services to residents, instead of forcing them to travel to find those services which, the theory goes, lowers their reliance on personal vehicles.
JOHN WOODS / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS Urban sprawl reinforces car-dependency, which affects greenhouse gas emissions.
But at the same time, bedroom communities across Canada are growing at alarming rates as sprawl in major cities hits certain thresholds. Cochrane, 40 kilometres northeast of Calgary, saw a growth rate of 47.1 per cent between 2011 and 2016, Statistics Canada says. That was second only to Warman, Sask., just north of Saskatoon, which grew by 55.1 per cent.
Manitoba hasn't seen the same explosion in growth rates of bedroom communities that's been witnessed in Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and Saskatchewan, but the Rural Municipality of Ritchot, just south of Winnipeg, did make the top 20 list for 2011-2016, with a growth rate of 21.9 per cent.
The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives reported last fall that more than half of the residents living in communities surrounding Winnipeg commuted into the city on a daily basis — from Springfield, Headingley, St. Clements and East and West St. Paul.
"We have a very strong car culture in this city, so there needs to be incentive, either through rebate program or through a provision of services, whereby we get people out of their vehicles and into transit, and reduce that demand on the car."–Christopher Storie
Sprawl has been looked at from every which way, Storie says — the effect it has on infrastructure spending, on the provision of services, on the socioeconomic inequality between neighbourhoods. As climate change becomes a major action item on cities' agendas, however, transportation needs of people living further from work and services really is the biggest challenge.
"My biggest concern here, in terms of urban development, is the balance between sprawl and transportation and efficiency of transportation," he says.
"We have a very strong car culture in this city, so there needs to be incentive, either through rebate program or through a provision of services, whereby we get people out of their vehicles and into transit, and reduce that demand on the car."

In this work we set up an in vitro model, based on organotypic cultures of spinal cord slices and dorsal root ganglia explants from P7 rats, embedded in a collagen matrix and cultured under the same conditions. As specific reinnervation of end-organs is still an unresolved issue in peripheral nerve research, we characterized a model that allows us to compare under the same conditions motor and sensory neuron regeneration. RT97 labeling was used to visualize the regenerating neurites that extended in the collagen gel from both motor neurons in the spinal cord slices and sensory neurons in the DRG explants after a few days in vitro. By adding different neurotrophic factors in the collagen matrix, we evaluated the reliability of DRG and spinal cord preparations. Moreover, we also set up a co-culture with dissociated Schwann cells to further mimic the permissive environment of the peripheral nerve. Thus, these in vitro models can be useful tools to investigate mechanisms for the selective regeneration of sensory and motor neurons, which can be translated into in vivo models. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

N2 - In this work we set up an in vitro model, based on organotypic cultures of spinal cord slices and dorsal root ganglia explants from P7 rats, embedded in a collagen matrix and cultured under the same conditions. As specific reinnervation of end-organs is still an unresolved issue in peripheral nerve research, we characterized a model that allows us to compare under the same conditions motor and sensory neuron regeneration. RT97 labeling was used to visualize the regenerating neurites that extended in the collagen gel from both motor neurons in the spinal cord slices and sensory neurons in the DRG explants after a few days in vitro. By adding different neurotrophic factors in the collagen matrix, we evaluated the reliability of DRG and spinal cord preparations. Moreover, we also set up a co-culture with dissociated Schwann cells to further mimic the permissive environment of the peripheral nerve. Thus, these in vitro models can be useful tools to investigate mechanisms for the selective regeneration of sensory and motor neurons, which can be translated into in vivo models. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

Analysis: Three vying for the presidential nomination and Texas bragging rights
By Ross RamseyThe Texas Tribune
Maybe Marianne Williamson is The Texan.
That title is contested, most recently wrested from Beto O'Rourke of El Paso and San Antonio's Julián Castro. Lots of people think those are the only two Texans in the hunt for the Democratic Party's presidential 2020 nomination.
"A few months ago, they were writing me up as the other Texan," Castro said in Austin on Friday, playing up the donations and supporters he gained since the Wednesday night debate that featured his well-timed swat at O'Rourke. "But that is no more. I am the Texan."
Castro, lagging behind O'Rourke in the polls, scolded the El Pasoan during that debate for not supporting a change in the federal law that Castro said provides the Trump administration's rationale for separating migrant families at the border.
The third Texan in the contest was on the stage the next night. Williamson was born and raised in Houston before leaving for California, where she went on to become a successful lecturer and author of 13 books on relationships, weight loss, women, public affairs and politics. She also started a meals-on-wheels-like program in Los Angeles — Project Angel Food — that's been around for more than 20 years. She ran for Congress in 2014, finishing fourth in a contest with more than a dozen candidates. And now she's in another political pack, one of 23 people seeking the nomination to challenge Donald Trump in November 2020.
She stood out on the debate stage, in part, because she was so unlike the other aspirants. None of the others could say Oprah Winfrey or Gwyneth Paltrow had ever looked to them for spiritual guidance or had authored a book with chapters on "Love in a Time of Crisis" and "An Economics of Love: A New Bottom Line." That was a good thing or a bad one, depending on each viewer's thinking. But the difference was pronounced. At one point, she chided the competition for all their plans and proposals.
"I'll tell you one thing: It's really nice if we've got all these plans, but if you think we're going to beat Donald Trump by just having all these plans, you've got another thing coming, because he didn't win by saying he had a plan," she said. "He won by simply saying, 'Make America great again.'"
Yeah, that was odd.
She elaborated on it later, as reported by the Des Moines Register: "I know I sounded silly saying plans don't matter. I'm a practical woman. ... I understand there are practical things that must be done."
At Monday's Rainbow PUSH Coalition meeting in Chicago, she sounded unfazed. "In looking at some of the memes, I've been on the floor laughing as much as anybody has, and I have not found a lot of mean-spiritedness there. America could use a good laugh," she said, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. "I understand that this was not an environment that I was used to — the kind of political boxing — but I also understand I said some very substantive things."
Williamson has a following from her lectures and books, a lot of celebrity friends, benefactors and supporters. And she garnered enough attention to get the 65,000 donations it took to qualify to get onto the debate stage. It's usually safe to wager against candidates like this — but give her what's due her: Contestants must be present to win, and she cleared that hurdle.
It's not like she was the only one-percenter on the stage that night, either, or the only Texan gasping for political oxygen.
The more experienced Texas politicians on the stage got a lot of attention crossing swords Wednesday — a back-and-forth that boosted Castro's standing and added another O'Rourke-is-fading anecdote to the stack. The next thing and the last thing sometimes pass in the night. Castro telling O'Rourke to do his homework on immigration was a case of a flat-lined candidate showing signs of political life by smacking down a candidate who's better known but foundering.
Castro's problem at the moment is that he's not well known. O'Rourke's trouble is that he is.
The former San Antonio mayor has been getting a lot of attention since then from people who wouldn't have recognized him in a grocery checkout line two weeks ago.
But he wasn't the only Texan who stood out in the first round of debates. The unusual spiritual adviser/writer didn't make the political splash Castro made, but she did attract some attention.
That seems Texan, doesn't it?


The director of Toy Story 3 Lee Unkrich has confirmed on both MSN and Twiiter that Toy Story 3 will not be the last time we see Woody and Buzz up on the big screen. I've actually been sold on the fact that Toy story 3 would completely close the story with no need to make another movie. I was happy that this would be the final Toy Story film. I've heard that Toy Story 3 ends with a perfect conclusion to the franchise. It doesn't sound like we will get a Toy Story 4, but the adventures of Woody and Buzz will continue in the form of short films. But we are talking about Disney, and if Toy Story 3 does well at the box-office, whose to say Disney won't push Pixar to make a fourth film? Here is what Unrich had to say.
Well, I really tried my best to end the story of Andy and his toys and bring that story to a close in a really nice way at the end of this film. That being said, we know that people love the characters, love Woody and Buzz, and would hate to say good-bye to them completely. I don't know that there would ever be a '[Toy Story] 4.' We don't have any plans for one — but we are trying to find ways to keep the characters alive. We have announced we're going to do a short film in front of 'Cars 2′ that uses the 'Toy Story' characters. We're going to keep them alive; they're not going away forever.
The first short Toy Story movie will be shown in front of Cars 2 when it comes out on June 24th 2011. What do you all think about Pixar making a series of Toy Story shorts? I'm sure they'll be fun to watch, as long as the don't make a fourth Toy story film. But then there are those that would love to see a fourth Toy Story movie.

About the Attorneys
Case Examples
"In what was the most difficult transition in my life thus far (divorce), Tasha was a professional, fair, and completely impartial mediator who knew when to push for progress and also when to sit back and listen."
HOURLY MEDIATION
No retainer is required for mediation services. Each time the parties meet with the attorney, they pay for the time used for that session. The final agreement must be paid for before being provided to the parties, which is completed for a flat fee. The overall cost depends on how quickly the parties are able to work towards resolution. Hourly mediation is best suited for parties who want to move through the mediation process in stages and need ample time to try out parenting schedules, finalize asset changes, or consult with other professionals for resolution of complex issues involving CPAs, bankruptcy attorneys, and the like.
FLAT FEE MEDIATION
Flat fee mediation is paid upfront. A basic mediation package provides for up to 2 1/2 hours of meetings, a Separation Agreement, Agreement to Change a Judgment, and other Court paperwork (Joint Petition, Affidavit of Irretrievable Breakdown, Vital Statistics Form, etc.). This is a good option for a typical divorce or parenting case with some conflict but not particularly complex issues. An enhanced mediation package is up for 4 hours of meetings, a Separation Agreement, Agreement to Change a Judgment (modification), and other Court paperwork. The enhanced mediation package is better suited for cases involving business ownership, complex compensation structures, high conflict parenting or special needs issues, or multiple real estate holdings, as examples.
Mediations can be held in person (suspended currently due to COVID-19), using Zoom, using Google Meet, or by phone. Hours are currently flexible due to COVID-19 and include evenings and weekends to accommodate for easier scheduling.
Attorney Tasha Buzzell acts as a mediator in a range of family law cases from simple negotiation of a divorce that is almost settled to highly contested and complicated child custody situations. Two types of mediation are available: uncontested mediation for a flat fee (generally up to 2 1/2 hours of meetings, drafting the Separation Agreement, and drafting all necessary court filings other than financial statements) and by-the-hour mediation. See below for more information on these types of mediation.
Picking a mediator is important in determining whether mediation will work for your situation. Every mediator has his or her own style, and Attorney Buzzell's style is very hands-on and determined to get the parties talking, exchanging information, and working together to a resolution that they create. From how to handle the valuation of a family business to when to introduce a new significant other, from dividing extensive debt or extensive assets, she has handled it. Attorney Buzzell explains the disclosures the court expects parties in a divorce to make to each other, the various factors the court looks at in a case, and all of the groundwork necessary to explain to the parties that the distrust that often accompanies a divorce can be worked through with carefully managed and assisted discussion and information exchanges. Attorney Buzzell is often appointed as a conciliator by the Bristol County Probate and Family Court for highly contested cases and has a track record of bringing parties to resolution, even one day prior to a long-awaited trial.
Mediation is worthwhile for parties for many reasons. The cost is often far less than protracted litigation. Flat fee packages provide a clear upfront cost. The emotional toll is less, both because the parties have the opportunity to vent to each other and get the anger on the table, and also because they are the ones making the decisions about their finances and children rather than the Courts. The time for resolving an issue is much shorter, rather than waiting for court dates and decisions from the Judge, and can be as quick as the parties can cooperate to make happen. Mediation can also follow a slower process if the parties want, which is often used by parties to develop a parenting plan and test it out for a few months, or to begin separating real estate or business holdings in a staggered approach.
With a keen eye towards what the roadblock is, Attorney Buzzell guides mediation clients to resolutions that they create. Once the parties have reached an agreement, Attorney Buzzell can draft their agreement so they can meet with their own attorneys for review or go directly to the Court to have it approved.

Kylie Jenner Reportedly Reveals Sex of Rumored Baby Through Shopping Habits
People think she's expecting a girl.

Kylie Jenner is expecting a girl, so says People magazine, which has reported that her recent shopping habits might be giving away a secret that she has kept safeguarded until now. A source revealed to the publication that "Kylie is having a lot of fun picking out items for her baby." They added, "She's definitely leaning towards pink hues and having fun with the fact that she's having a girl." Many speculated that Kris's design concept of an all-pink Christmas tree in Kylie's front hall might, too, have given a nod to the sex of her unannounced child to come.
When Kylie Jenner shared the tree on social media, she wrote, "Thank you @jeffleatham & team for making my XMAS dreams come true! 20 feet of magic! Even more perfect in real life ... 🎀." Though Kylie might just be falling for the hue lately, her absence from her normal social media and event presence raises some eyebrows, suggesting she's hiding something her appearance at the moment might give away. She even skipped a Glamour magazine event this past week, with best friend Jordyn Woods accepting an award on her behalf.
Another source claimed to People that "Kylie isn't going to publicly address her pregnancy until she gives birth. She's not doing any public appearances and just wanted to take six months off." With such a public presence, that much we certainly understand! That said, reports of her ultrafeminine baby buys will continue to pique our interest until the day comes that the rumors are confirmed as truth!

Nothing special so far about the rig. Have some 32" OC Toyo tires and it had a 40 series magnaflow muffler on it, which is annoying. It has a 9 speaker w/ sub rockford fasgate 6 discs stereo, which is pretty damn load and sounds good.
I plan on getting a 3" lift at some point and a Bull bumper from ARB when it comes out, winch and some extra lights up top.
Looks nice though. Those are some serious tires. Are you still getting rid of the Subie when it is finished?
I like Nissans. American made cars FTL!!
As of right now, no. We will see how things go once the engine is broke in.
As of right now im getting NEW: crank, Wiesco pistons, turbo oil pump, rebuilt SOHC RS heads, re-bushing pauter rods, rebuild turbo, fixed JDM replica bumper and probably will finally put on my FMIC. It will more then likely get a new tune too since I have all these changes. I have been meaning to get pics of the engine torn apart and the parts but just havent had time to get to the shop.

Austal USA Receives US Navy Contract Award To Develop Autonomous Capability On EPF 13
Austal USA has been awarded a US$44 million fixed-price, undefinitised contract modification for the design, procurement, production implementation and demonstration of autonomous capability on Expeditionary Fast Transport (EPF) 13, USNS Apalachicola.
Martin Manaranche 09 Jun 2021
Austal USA press release
Austal USA is constructing 15 Spearhead-class EPF vessels for the US Navy and has delivered twelve EPFs since December 2012. EPF 13 is currently under construction at Austal USA's Mobile, Alabama shipyard.
Austal Limited Chief Executive Officer Paddy Gregg said the highly-anticipated contract was another significant, strategic step towards greater autonomous vessel capability.
"Austal noted in our half year results presentation that the funding for an autonomous EPF conversion contract had been appropriated in the USA Government 2021 Budget, so we are pleased that it has now been converted into a formal contract,"
"Winning a $44 million contract is welcome from a revenue perspective, but strategically this contract award is even more significant for Austal."
Austal Limited Chief Executive Officer Paddy Gregg
"Autonomous vessel capability has been identified as an area of strategic importance by the US Navy, so it is promising for Austal that the US Navy has awarded Austal USA a contract for the design, procurement, production implementation and demonstration of autonomous capability of one of our vessels, the Expeditionary Fast Transport (EPF) 13, the future USNS Apalachicola."

The Spearhead-class EPF is a 103-metre high-speed aluminium catamaran with a large, 1800 square metre cargo deck, medium-lift helicopter deck and seating for 300+ embarked troops; providing a fast, high-payload transport capability to combatant commanders around the world.
The Austal-designed and built EPFs support a wide range of missions – from maritime security operations to humanitarian aid and disaster relief.
Two EPF's are currently under construction at Austal USA's shipyard – the USNS Apalachicola (EPF 13) and the USNS Cody (EPF 14).
In addition to the EPF program, Austal USA is contracted to deliver 19 Independence-class Littoral Combat Ships (LCS) for the U.S. Navy, of which 13 have been delivered since 2010. The 15th Independence-class LCS, the future USS Canberra was christened at Austal USA on 5th June 2021.
This ASX announcement has been approved and authorised for release by Paddy Gregg, Austal Limited's Chief Executive Officer.

#AceNewsReport – Feb.19: The 12-year-old girl was in her school uniform, wearing pigtails. She clutched her princess lunch box as she got off the Bronx bus after tutoring, and that's when the rapist grabbed her by the arm: "If you scream, I'm gonna kill you," he said, according to police. The stranger dragged her roughly, turning down an alley where he brutally attacked her #AceNewsDesk reports

The crime took place on Feb. 24, 2015. And, despite DNA evidence and surveillance footage of the attack, no arrests have been made. As the anniversary nears, the Special Victims Division detective on the case is pleading for anyone with information to send a tip through the CrimeStoppers website or call the hotline:
"She was just a baby," said Det. Diane Crowley. "This is the worst of the worst."
Surveillance footage shows a young man in tan cargo pants, wearing a blue jacket with a hood and a hat. His face is blurry, but it's not impossible to recognize. Part of the problem, Crowley thinks, is the suspect was also young, probably 14 to 16 years old. She thinks people are afraid of being wrong and turning in an innocent kid.
"Obviously with the forensic evidence, there's no way the wrong kid will go to jail for this," she said. "I just think after three years, you told somebody, you told part of it to somebody. A mom saw it. Someone knows something."
There's a reward of more than $22,000 for any tips leading to an arrest.
Crowley is haunted by the case. She said when she arrived to the hospital, the little girl in a bed, still in her uniform, but it was ripped and dirty. Her glasses were askew.
She had a hard time explaining the attack to police.
"She had to describe things that happened to her that she didn't even have the vocabulary for," Crowley said. "She'd never seen a male body before."
She was on the BX 19 bus to East Tremont, where she transfers to another bus to go home. She said he grabbed her when she got off, then walked her into an alley at 2064 Daley Avenue, the first building off 179th Street.
The alley is sunken — not something easily seen from the street, but there's turf covering one of the walls.
After the attack, she ran and called her mother and they went to the hospital, which collected forensic evidence. Crowley set to work. It took police days to find the crime location because the little girl didn't know where she was.
They followed up on hundreds of leads, talked to any gang members in the possibility it was some sort of initiation. They combed through bus footage. The victim didn't remember seeing him at school, but it looked like he might have also have been wearing a uniform.
"I think most sex crimes are about opportunity. She happened to be an easy target," Crowley said. "But when you find a 12 year old and you saw I'm going to kill you … it's a real cowardly attack," she said.
Crowley said the girl has had ups and downs. She's anxious and can't sleep, struggles in school, but she's growing into a smart young woman and is doing her best.
"But, her innocence was taken. The twinkle in her eye dimmed out," she said. "I would love nothing more than to bring her and her family justice."
