You will use sterling silver wire and your choice of beads to create this fun bracelet with matching earrings. The Whimsical is one of my favorite techniques because it works up quickly and each bracelet/earrings are unique because of their freeform nature. Both the bracelet and earrings use the same technique, just different wire size. You will finish the bracelet off by making a hook and the earrings will be finished by making sterling silver ear wires. Class fee includes all material, a complete photographed tutorial with step by step instructions and the use of instructors tools while in class.

Језеро Тангањика је велико језеро у централној Африци. Сматра се да је то друго највеће језеро на свету по количини воде, после Бајкалског језера у Сибиру. Оно је исто тако најдуже слатководно језеро на свету. Језеро је подељено између четири земље – Танзанија, Демократска република Конго (ДРЦ), Бурунди, и Замбија, при чему Танзанија (46%) и ДРЦ (40%) поседују највећи део језера. Вода истиче у систем реке Конго и ултиматно у Атлантски океан.

Етимологија

Име се односи на афричку реч -{Tanganika}-, са значењем "велико језеро које се простире као равница", или "равничарско језеро"."

Географија

Језеро се налази на западном делу Долине Велике раселине и ограничено је планинским странама долине. То је највеће раселинско језеро у Африци и друго по величини језеро по површини на овом континенту. Оно је најдубље језеро у Африци и има највећу количину слатке воде. Пружа се у дужину од 673 -{km}- у правцу север-југ с просечном ширином од 50 -{km}-. Површина језера је 32.900 -{km²}-, с обалом дугом 1.828 -{km}-, просечне дубине 570 m и с највећом дубином од 1.470 m (у северном делу). С обзиром да је највећа дубина језера испод нивоа мора оно представља криптодепресију. Процењује се да има 18.900 -{km³}- воде. Просечна температура воде на површини је 25 °C а просечна -{pH}- вредност је 8,4.

Огромна дубина и тропска локација језера онемогућава велики одлив воде, што значи да је вода у дубинама тзв. "фосилна вода" без кисеоника. Подручје језера покрива 231.000 -{km²}-, с две велике реке које утичу у језеро, многим мањим рекама и потоцима (захваљујући стрмим планинским страна одводњавање је мало), а највећа отока, река Лукуга, касније се улива у реку Конго.

Највеће притоке су река Рузизи, која се улива са севера из језера Киву и река Малагараси, која је друга највећа река у Танзанији, која се улива с истока.

Језеро је подељено између четири државе - Бурунди, Демократска Република Конго, Танзанија и Замбија, с тим да Конго држи 40%, а Танзанија 46% језера.

Језеро Тангањика је древно језеро. Његова три басена, која су у периодима са много нижим водостајима била одвојена језера, различита су по старосном добу. Централно је почело да се формира пре 9-12 М година, северно 7-8 М година и јужно 2-4 М година.

Карактеристике воде

Вода језера је алкална са -{pH}- око 9 на дубинама од . Испод тога је око 8,7, и постепено се снижава до 8,3—8,5 у дубљим деловама језера. Сличан образац је уочљив и у погледу електричне проводљивости, која је у опсегу од око 670 -{μS/cm}- у горњем делу и до 690 -{μS/cm}- у дубљим деловима.

Површинске температуре су генерално у опсегу од око  у јужним деловима језера у раном августу од  током касне кишне сезоне у марту—априлу. На дубинама већим од  температура је веома стабилна на .

Језеро је стратификовано и сезонско мешање генерно не досеже испод дубина од . До ветром узрокованог мешања углавном долази на југу, као и у мањој мери на неколико других делова језера. Последица стратификације је да дубоке секције садрже "фосилну воду". То такође значи да у њој нема кисеоника (вода је аноксична) у дубљим деловима, што есенцијално ограничава рибу и друге аеробне организме на горњи део. Постоје извесне географске варијације овог лимита, мада је он типично на дубинама од око  у северном делу језера, а  на југу. Најдубље секције без кисеоника имају високе нивое токсичног водоник сулфида и есенцијално су беживотне, изузев за бактерије.

Биологија
У језеру има бар 300 врста риба циклида и 150 не-циклидних врста, од којих већина живи при дну језера. Највећа биомаса риба, међутим, налази се у отвореним водама у којој доминира шест врста – две врсте тангањиканске сардине и четири врсте риба грабљивица -{Lates}- (које су у роду, али нису исте као Нилски гргеч, који је уништио циклидне рибе у Језеру Викторија). Скоро све (98%) тангањиканске циклидне врсте су ендемске. Има доста ендемских врста и међу бескичмењацима, нарочито мекушаца (које су значајно ковергентне морској морфологији), ракова, копепода, пијавица и сл.

Неколико циклидних врста, укључујући многе врсте које живе у шкољкама, постале су популарне као акваријумске рибе због свог необичног начина живота и релативно високе интелигеције. Од осталих значајних врста треба поменути Танг кобру, врсту водене змије.

Рептили
Језеро Тангањика и припадајуће мочваре су дом нилских крокодила (укључујући познатог гигантског Густава), замбијске зглобне корњаче, рецкасте корњаче и пан корњаче (ова задња врста не обитава у самом језеру, већу у суседним лагунама). Олујна водена кобра, угрожена подврста водене кобре која се углавном храни рибом, једино се налази у језеру Тангањика, где преферира стеновите обале.

Циклидна риба

Језеро садржи најмање 250 врста циклидне рибе а постоје и неописне врсте. Скоро сви (98%) Тангањикини циклиди су ендемски за ово језеро и стога је оно важан биолошки ресурс за изучавање специјације током еволуције. Циклиди афричких Великих језера, укључујући Тангањику, представњају најразличитији опсег адаптивне радијације код кичмењака.

Мада Тангањика има мањи број врста циклида од језера Малави и Викторија, оба од којих су релативно недавно имала експлозију врста услед радијације (последица чега је мноштво блиско сродних врста), његови циклиди су у највећој мери морфолошки и генетички разноврсни. То је повезано са великом старошћу језера Тангањика, које је далеко старије од других језера. Тангањика има највећи број ендемских циклидних родова од свих афричких језера. Сви Тангањикини циклиди су у подфамилији -{Pseudocrenilabrinae}-. Од десет племена у тој потфамилији, половина је у великој мери или потпуно ограничена на ово језеро (-{Cyprichromini}-, -{Ectodini}-, -{Lamprologini}-, -{Limnochromini}- и -{Tropheini}-) и додатна три имају присутне врсте у овом језеру (-{Haplochromini}-, -{Tilapiini}- и -{Tylochromini}-). Други су предложили поделу Тангањикиних циклида у 12—16 племена (поред раније поменутих то су -{Bathybatini}-, -{Benthochromini}-, -{Boulengerochromini}-, -{Cyphotilapiini}-, -{Eretmodini}-, -{Greenwoodochromini}-, -{Perissodini}- и -{Trematocarini}-).

Већина циклида Тангањике обитава дуж обала до дубине од , мада се неке дубоководне врсте спуштају до . Врста -{Trematocara}- је нађена на изузетним дубинама од више од , што је дубље него за било којег другог циклида на свету. Неки од дубоководних циклида (нпр., -{Bathybates}-, -{Gnathochromis}-, -{Hemibates}- и -{Xenochromis}-) бу били ухваћени на местима која су практично без кисеоника. Како су у стању да преживе у таквој води није разјашњено. Тангањикини циклиди су генерално бентални (обитавају на или у близини дна) и/или приобални. Ни један од циклида Тангањике није истински пелагијалан, нити обитава далеко од обале, изузев неких пиковорних -{Bathybates}-. Две такве врсте, -{B. fasciatus}- и -{B. leo}-, превасходно се хране сардинама Тангињаке. Циклиди Тангињаке се опсежно разликују у погледу екологије и тиме су обухваћене врсте које су биљоједи, детривори, планктивори, инсективори, мекушцовори, лешинари, крљуштовори и пиковори. Њихово понашање при парењу спада у две главне групе, врсте са подложним мрешћењем (често у пећинама или каменим пукотинама) и оне које инкубирају икру у устима. Међу ендемским врстама су две од најмањих циклида на свету, -{Neolamprologus multifasciatus}- и -{N. similis}- (обе од којих обитавају у празним шкољкама) са дужином од , и једна од највећих, гигантски циклид (-{Boulengerochromis microlepis}-) дугачак до .

Многи циклиди из језера Тангањика, као што су врсте из родова -{Altolamprologus}-, -{Cyprichromis}-, -{Eretmodus}-, -{Julidochromis}-, -{Lamprologus}-, -{Neolamprologus}-, -{Tropheus}- и -{Xenotilapia}-, су популарне акваријумске рибе услед њихових светлих боја и шара и занимљивог понашања. Опонашање станишта језера Тангањика да би се узгајали ти циклиди у станишту сличном њиховом природном окружењу је исто тако популаран акваријумски хоби.

Индустрија
Језерске рибе су највећи извор протеина за локално становништво. Око 45.000 људи из готово 800 насеља се директно бави рибарством, а око милион људи је везано за рибарство. Риба са Тангањике се извози широм источне Африке. Комерцијално рибарство је почело средином педесетих година 20. века што се одразило на број површинских риба; 1955. укупан улов износио је око 180.000 тона. Компаније које су се бавиле индустријским рибарством, а које су цветале осамедесетих година 20. века, лагано су пропадале.

Транспорт

Историја
Први познати Европљани који су открили језеро били су истраживачи Ричард Бартон и Џон Спики 1858. Они су га открили тражећи извор Нила. Спики је наставио и открио прави извор, Викторија (језеро).

The brain receives the same signals from the nerves to the left arm and the heart.
Most deaths occur because of heart disease. Special risk is people over 60, diabetics and people with excess weight. Often early symptoms can be easily eliminated. Need only time to recognize the signals of the body, and hearing something was wrong to go to the doctor.
The most common symptom of emerging issues – discomfort in the chest area. Any unusual feeling, a burning sensation, tightness, tingling can be a signal of heart disease. The brain receives the same signals from the nerves of the left hand and the heart, so do not always understand the brain, a sore arm or heart. So if you suddenly had severe pain in left arm for no apparent reason is a serious reason for alarm. The doctors say that this is one of the classic symptoms of a heart attack.
A clear sign of heart problems cough with pink or white mucus. This symptom means that there is a problem of heart failure, which hinder the outflow of moisture from the lungs.
The loss of orientation in space may signal a heart problem, if it occurs frequently in the normal condition of the body. Dizziness suggests that the heart is not pumping enough blood to the brain.
When the blood low oxygen, shortness of breath occurs. If it appears not after exercise and is accompanied by chest pain, it is worth considering: it may be caused by deteriorating blood circulation, which is caused by the malfunction of the heart.
A heart that cannot cope with the load, it can be felt swelling in the legs. Disturbed lymphatic drainage – removing fluid from tissues, which leads to edema.

CHICAGO – The film genre of aliens from other planets is as old as the movies. But it hasn't been told as boldly and humanely as the new film "Arrival."

CHICAGO – The sensational summer movie season of 2015 still has some pulse pounding tricks up its sleeve, and "Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation" fulfills that sensation with a wham-bam bag of spy games. Tom Cruise, Simon Pegg and Jeremy Renner are back, joined by femme kick-ass Rebecca Ferguson.
Meet the Press in Illuminating 'Kill the Messenger'
Michael Cuesta
CHICAGO – When journalists were heroes and exposed those in power for their sins, movies were made like "All the President's Men." Gary Webb of the San Jose Mercury News was one of those journalist heroes during the 1990s, but he wasn't celebrated in his time. The indictments, induced paranoia and outright lies against him are distinctly chronicled in the luminary "Kill the Messenger."

CHICAGO – Just in time for a national holiday is the release of two films about surviving as "the outsider" in a tumultuous American society. "X-Men: Days of Future Past" isn't the only movie that opines about how the outsider will survive in America, but James Gray's "The Immigrant" does too, a film that takes the story of a Polish woman traveling through the course of Ellis Island and deconstructs her tale as an American nightmare.

In the wake of China's ban on certain types of recycling imports, King County has created a task force in an effort to both improve recycling in the area and to come up with possible solutions to some of the issues local recycling services now face. Closer to home, Zero Waste Vashon is taking things one step further by focusing on source-driven solutions.
Gaisford said that the task force, which includes representatives from cities and solid waste haulers in the area, will be working closely with the state's Department of Ecology and will focus on immediate, mid- and long-term mitigation of the disruption to recycling efforts caused by the Chinese ban.
As The Beachcomber and other news outlets reported in October of last year, China, the world's largest market for recyclables, implemented a ban on 24 types of solid waste imports, including the plastic and mixed paper products most commonly shipped from the United States, due to contamination issues. A significant percentage of the recyclables it was receiving were unfit for processing because they weren't clean, there was un-recyclable material mixed in, or, in the case of mixed paper, it was wet.
And while there are other markets in other countries for some of this banned material, contrary to some recent media reports, they are not big enough to make this a non-issue.
Replacing that lost market will be one solution that the new task force dives in to, as far as how to encourage locally-based buyers.
Zero Waste Vashon, on the other hand, while still working closely with King County, is focused on the root of the problem: the products themselves, going straight to the manufacturers and producers.
However, both agree that simply banning the use/production of certain types of products, such as single-use plastics, like straws, is not the answer.
Some examples of what this might look like come from a brewery in Florida that sells its beer in cans, which are completely recyclable, according to Dammann and Lockwood, and uses seaweed-based "plastic" ring holders, which break down completely so as not to pose a threat to ocean life or add to the plastic garbage heap currently taking over our oceans. Other examples include bags made in Indonesia that break down rapidly into non-plastic components, and disposable and rapidly broken down plates and utensils, created by Polish farmers from their wheat bran by-products.
Aside from composting being a goal of Zero Waste Vashon's for some time, it was the message that came across loud and clear from the community meeting the organization held last fall.
Citing a good working relationship with the county, both Dammann and Lockwood came back to the more immediate issues at hand, and reinforced what individuals can all do now to help with the current recycling crisis.
Gaisford noted while there were a couple of recycling processors that had requested waivers to dump unmarketable recyclables into landfills, most cities that gave waivers set end dates that have since passed. The few that did not set any limits will be addressed by the new task force.
The emphasis, he said, in the short-term, is on quality.
As far as Dammann is concerned, it's up communities like Vashon to lead the way.
Anyone interested in keeping up with the new county task force may attend Solid Waste Advisory Committee meetings, or see minutes from the meetings posted at www.kingcounty.gov/depts/dnrp/solid-waste/about/advisory-committees/swac.aspx.

Fortune 100 company distribution center to South Side Fortune 100 company distribution center to South Side https://www.recenter.tamu.edu/news/newstalk-texas/?Item=16656 2017-05-25T05:00:00Z 2017-05-25T19:00:00Z
SAN ANTONIO – A tax incentive package has been approved to lure the Massachusetts parent company of T.J. Maxx and Marshalls to build a $150 million distribution center on the city's South Side.
TJX Companies Inc., a Fortune 100 company, will create 1,000 jobs over five years on the city's South Side and construction on the 1.5 million-sf warehouse is expected to be completed by the end of 2019.
The city agreed to not annex—for at least 15 years—the 1,200 acres near Mission Espada where TJX plans to build the warehouse; a move intended to keep the company's property taxes low.
The 1,200-acre lot—currently owned by Redus Texas Land—land falls outside of city limits so it's ineligible for city incentive funds and tax abatements.
The site will be bounded by Loop 410 on the north, Goeth Rd. on the south, the San Antonio River on the east and US 281 on the west.
TJX has told the city it intends to pay employees at least $10 an hour and provide health and retirement benefits for eligible, full-time employees.

Twitter's Promoted Trends concept is a hit. A marketing executive at Coke, which was only the second company (after Disney) to give it a shot, could hardly say enough good things about the new ad platform in an interview, using words like "great" and "phenomenal."
Carol Kruse, Vice President of Global Interactive Marketing, first told Tim Bradshaw at the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival, "The amount of impressions in such a short period of time around our whole World Cup campaign, to me it was a phenomenal time." Which was a reference to 86 million impressions in 24 hours, if you're curious.
Kruse then continued, "It made this emotional connection at the time, it was great." And that observation stems from the fact Coke saw an engagement rate of six percent when a rate of 0.2 percent is more typical.
Unfortunately, it's hard to call Promoted Trends a complete success, because no one knows how much Coke paid for its Promoted Trend. Those big numbers wouldn't be bargains if the price was high enough.
The Promoted Trends platform appears to have gotten off to a great start, though. An endorsement like Kruse's in fact sounds like something Twitter should have paid for.
Count on seeing a lot of other companies try to follow Coke's lead, then, perhaps to the point that Twitter will be able to raise its rates (whatever they are) and make even more money.


Free to Be Me: Intoxicating!
This is a repost because I am experiencing the exact same smells and thoughts!!
The view of the jasmine winding up the porch!
It's no secret, if you have read my blog at all, that my back porch is my sanctuary! I have a sign over the bed out here that says, "Come away to a secret place and rest for a while." As I sit out here this morning, the smell of the jasmine winding it's way up the steps is intoxicating! It hits you as soon as you walk out the door or around the corner of the house and it fills me with great joy and leaves me wanting more as I go throughout the day.
2 Corinthians 2:15 says ~ "Everywhere we go, people breathe in the exquisite fragrance. Because of Christ, we give off a sweet scent rising to God, which is recognized by those on the way of salvation—an aroma redolent with life."
It is in the secret place with Him that we take on the fragrance of Christ. As I sat here this morning contemplating Him and singing to Him, I become a little more fragrant to those I will come into contact with. Some, who are unfamiliar with the fragrance, will not be able to identify what it is, but they will be forced to acknowledge it none-the-less.

Here are eight books Battelle for Kids' leaders are reading as we work to help school systems—in partnership with educators, parents, business leaders, and communities—design quality 21st century learning experiences for all students.
The Power of Different: The Link Between Disorder and Genius
By Gail Saltz (2017)
As educators, we must thoughtfully consider how traditional learning models, designed in the Industrial Age, do not enable all learners to flourish, fully utilizing their strengths and talents. Psychiatrist and best-selling author Gail Saltz examines the latest scientific evidence and profiles of famous geniuses to document how perceived deficits in certain areas of the brain are directly associated with the potential for great talent. As school systems look for ways to engage all learners in 21st century skills, this book pushes our thinking away from deficit models to strength-based models. In other words, shifting our thinking from a "disorder" to a "difference"-- from "what's wrong with me" to "what's right with me?" The Power of Different is full of stories about individuals who have not only made the most of their conditions, but who have flourished because of them. Learn more and buy the book.
Schools that Succeed: How Educators Marshal the Power of Systems for Improvement
By Karin Chenoweth (2017)
Drawing on her decade-long journey into neighborhood schools where low-income students and students of color are learning at unexpectedly high levels, Karin Chenoweth reveals a key ingredient to their success: in one way or another, their leaders have confronted the traditional ways that schools are organized and have adopted new systems, all focused on improvement. From how they use time to how they use money, schools that succeed combine a deep belief in the capacity of their students to achieve with deliberate systems focused on student needs. As a result, they create vibrant places "where teachers want to teach and students want to learn." Learn more and buy the book.
Creative Schools: The Grassroots Revolution That's Transforming Education
By Ken Robinson, Ph.D. (2016)
In Creative Schools, Ken Robinson, an internationally recognized leader on creativity and human potential, argues for an end to our outmoded industrial educational system and proposes a highly personalized, organic approach that draws on today's unprecedented technological and professional resources to engage all students, develop their love of learning, and enable them to face the real challenges of the twenty-first century. He focuses on deep learning with a balanced between the 4 C's (critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity) and the significance of carefully implementing challenging curriculum and pedagogy. Learn more and buy the book.
Thank You for Being Late: An Optimist's Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations
By Thomas Friedman (2016)
This book serves as a field manual for how to write and think about this era of accelerations. Thomas Friedman exposes the tectonic movements that are reshaping the world today and explains how to get the most out of them and cushion their worst impacts. His thesis: to understand the twenty-first century, you need to understand that the planet's three largest forces―Moore's law (technology), the Market (globalization), and Mother Nature (climate change and biodiversity loss)—are accelerating all at once. These accelerations are transforming five key realms: the workplace, politics, geopolitics, ethics, and community. Leaders must be innovative, quick to adapt, and be adept at shutting out the noise and accessing their deepest values. Learn more and buy the book.
Creating Cultures of Thinking: The 8 Forces We Must Master to Truly Transform Our Schools
By Ron Ritchhart (2015)
In Creating Cultures of Thinking, Ron Ritchart challenges educators to create thinking environments where deep learning can occur—not just for students, but for teachers as well! He outlines how any school or teacher can accomplish this by leveraging 8 cultural forces: expectations, language, time, modeling, opportunities, routines, interactions, and environment. A culture of thinking produces the feelings, energy, and even joy that can propel learning forward and motivate us to do what at times can be hard and challenging mental work. Learn more and buy the book.
The Smartest Kids in the World: And How They Got that Way
By Amanda Ripley (2013)
In a handful of nations, virtually all children are learning to make complex arguments and solve problems they've never seen before. They are learning to think, in other words, and to thrive in the modern economy. Inspired to find answers for our own children, author and Time magazine journalist Amanda Ripley follows three Americans embed¬ded in these countries for one year. Their stories, along with groundbreaking research into learning in other cultures, reveal a pattern of startling transformation: none of these countries had many "smart" kids a few decades ago. Things had changed. Teaching had become more rigorous; parents had focused on things that mattered; and children had bought into the promise of education. Learn more and buy the book.
By Tony Wagner (2012)
In this groundbreaking book, education expert Tony Wagner provides a powerful rationale for developing an innovation-driven economy, and explores what parents, teachers, and employers must do to develop the capacities of young people to become innovators. Wagner identifies a pattern—a childhood of creative play leads to deep-seated interests, which in adolescence and adulthood blossom into a deeper purpose for career and life goals. Play, passion, and purpose: these are the forces that drive young innovators. Wagner then looks more widely at the education system and shows how we can apply this knowledge as educators. Learn more and buy the book.
The Leader's Guide to 21st Century Education: 7 Steps for Schools and Districts
By Ken Kay and Valerie Greenhill (2012)
How can school leaders transform their districts into 21st century deep learning places? This is the driving question in The Leader's Guide to 21st Century Education, which offers education leaders seven steps for moving school systems forward in the quest to prepare students for the challenges of the 21st century—with a particular focus on fostering critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity. Learn more and buy the book.

COVID-19: Six truths about Bala Mohammed's itineraries
News that Governor Bala Mohammed has tested positive for COVID-19 has caused our editors to do a quick xray of the enormity of this development for Nigeria.
Senior Special Assistant to the governor on Media, Mukhtar Gidado earlier made the revelation in a Press statement.
He said the governor's test came positive among the six tests conducted by the NCDC.
According to the statement, Mohammed is in self-isolation as the NCDC have taken full charge of his quarantine.
Being a public figure and by the virtue of his position, the governor is expected to have many contacts on a daily basis.
As part of ALEDEH's efforts in ensuring the right things are done and the best decisions taken by people who might have come in contact with the governor, we explore six itineraries by the governor, which is not being told to the public:
1. Mohammed visited Germany. He arrived Berlin, the capital of the country which is also hit by COVID-19 on the 12th of March. He was on a working visit. This explains a high possibility that he didn't get the virus from Atiku's son.
2. Mohammed returned to Nigeria through the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos and went straight to Bauchi on the 14th of March. On an average, a Nigerian governor receives daily, about 100 people!
3. He had a meeting with Africa's Richest Man Aliko Dangote on the 17th. He arrived via a commercial flight; Aero Contractors. That's when he met Atiku's son who has also tested positive for the virus.
4. Bala Mohammed had a breakfast meeting with WorldBank and other Governors at Frazer suite in Abuja on March 18th.
5. Mohammed attended Nigeria Governor's Forum meeting where all state governors irrespective of party affiliations were in attendance.
6. Governor Bala Mohammed attended the National Economic Council meeting. At the meeting were Nigeria's Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Nigeria's Central Bank Governor Godwin Emefiele, Chief of Staff Abba Kyari, Finance Minister and others.
The announcement of Gov. Bala Mohammed's positive COVID-19 case is a worrisome one and we are looking at the gravity of the present situation, with regards to the many contacts he surely has had since his arrival.T
o curb the spread of this disease, which has an infectivity of monumental proportions, we are requesting anyone who has had contact with the governor in the last 10 days to present themselves, get tested and go on self-isolation. This is very important.
People who have had contact with the governor should stop mingling, as this will be a very humane thing to do at this point in time.
We are of great belief that if we can adhere to the guidelines of the NCDC regarding self-isolation, coming forward and testing, the country may be on its way to defeating the pandemic.

As soon as I read the last line, I shouted out, "PAW PLUNGER! IAN, KITA, IAN PAW PLUNGER LOOK!" This got his attention really quick. Love the music choice. Quite the city lady.
← Mum, sniff it!!!… Spring is in the air!


HEADING into winter, here are some of the latest interior trends for 2018. While some looks are a continuation of past ones, other fashionable trends are as fresh as tomorrow.
The marble highlight finishes continue, but not the cheap faux marble. If you're going to embrace the luxury of marble, invest in the real thing. Mirrors are also totally on-trend, especially with bevelled edges to add to the element of luxe.
For 2018 and beyond, it's all about the gorgeous, colourful and deep plushness of Moroccan rugs. Go for a mixture of colours that work for your space – or choose the natural cream with grey/ black patterns of this season's must-have item, a Moroccan rug.
Matte black and slate grey accessories and finishes are totally on trend. The upshot of this style is it is easier to keep it looking clean, plus the darker colours hide a multitude of sins, including rust and other signs of wear and tear.
Depending on lifestyle, climate and status, according to English Elle Décor, it's hello to separate dining rooms, a space where family and friends can gather in a dedicated space, in real time.
The European interior shows all featured lashings of floral prints and lush velvets in contemporary bold colours, as well as pretty pastels.
Again, dark colours are abundant, as well as coloured metallic tiling that can add a hint of glamour. But the biggest change in the bathroom is gorgeous gold tapware and accessories. Silver is totally devoid of glamour compared to the latest gold finishes.
Modern bohemian bedrooms feature layers of ethnic textiles, including velvet (there seems no end to the love of velvet), plus upholstered bedheads and the soft underfoot glamour of a Moroccan rug.


Why does moisture damage occur?
Nowadays our homes have a lot of heat insulation between the living areas and the attic. This prevents heat from rising into the attic, which becomes colder and thereby relatively damper.
In the past homes were often heated by means of an oil boiler, for example, and the chimney stack heated the attic, at the same time also improving the ventilation in the living areas.
All in all, this meant that the loft was less vulnerable to damp. In other words, replacing the heating system can mean that there is an increased risk of damp problems in the attic.
Damp internal air comes up into the loft through gaps in the joist system. The lower the temperature in the attic, the higher the RH.
*RH= Relative Humidity. Relative humidity means, in simple terms, "the percentage volume of water in the air compared to the air's maximum possible water volume at the current temperature". At 100% RH condensation is formed.

Culture Currents Kids, adversity and sleep problems: What you can do
Kids, adversity and sleep problems: What you can do
by Diana Hembree, StressHealth.org
If you had a rough childhood, research suggests you are more likely to have nightmares and other sleep problems. Kids who've lived through homelessness, neighborhood violence, parental divorce, abuse or other Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) may also be more likely to experience sleep disturbances, including bedwetting and trouble getting to sleep. This can do more than make them tired and cranky. Racking up an ongoing sleep "debt" is linked with other health and behavior problems, including obesity, aggression, difficulty learning and focusing at school, and even diabetes.
What can you do if your child has sleep problems that won't go away? Here are some tips:
Play outside every day. Start the bedtime routine long before kids actually go to bed, says Harvey Karp, MD, of the USC School of Medicine and author of The Happiest Toddler on the Block. Toddlers should be playing throughout the day, and older kids need at least an hour of vigorous exercise each day. Plenty of fresh air, sunshine and exercise is the best recipe for a sound sleep, according to Karp. If your neighborhood isn't safe, try a park in a safer location or devise fun games indoors (dance contests, hula hoops, jump rope, and more).
Have kids turn off their electronics an hour or two before bedtime. According to the National Sleep Foundation, the blue light from these screens "can delay the release of sleep-inducing melatonin" and give children a case of mini-jet lag.
Create a relaxing sleep routine. This often involves a bath, bedtime story or reading aloud, and hugs before lights out. Like family dinners, this can provide an important daily ritual that will help kids feel connected and secure.
Choose calm shows for preschoolers. A 2011 study in Pediatrics found that kids who watched violent TV during the day were more likely to have problems sleeping. And "violent," in this study, included even cartoons like SpongeBob Squarepants, Bugs Bunny and Scooby Doo. The cartoon mayhem of SpongeBob and Bugs Bunny may amuse us, but consider how all that slapping, punching, chasing and shooting looks to a 3-year-old. A follow-up study found that substituting shows like Curious George or Sesame Street resulted in a better night's sleep.

Set a regular bedtime. All kids need a good night's sleep. Research shows this is essential for neurotransmitters, the chemicals that allow brain cells to communicate. This sleep chart from the CDC can help you estimate of how many hours of sleep you and your child need. Did you know preschoolers need 12 to 14 hours of sleep every 24 hours, counting naps?
Talk with your doctor. If the problem is something like sleep apnea, the problem may require medical treatment.

Q: How to List Thumbnails based on Custom Categories I need to list(display) all thumbnails from my Custom Post Types in a page template based on product categories. For Example I have a Custom Category called "Art" and some images(Custom Post Type) products enabled by "Feature Image" associated with "Art" Category.Now I would like to list ONLY all thumbnails of Art category product on my Custom Page Template.
Can you please let me know how to do this? I find this method which works only for one page without ability to select from pages!
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>

A: You need to use custom post and make the categorys there and align the thumbnails in each post.
 <?php // query post type */*/

        global $post;
        $args = array(
        'post_type' => 'YOUR-POST-TYPE-HERE',
        'cat' => $category,
        'suppress_filters' => '0',
        'numberposts' =>'-1',
        'orderby' => 'title',
        'order' => 'asc',
        'post_status' => 'publish' );
        $myposts = get_posts( $args );

        foreach( $myposts as $post ) :  setup_postdata($post);
        $meta = $custom_metabox_jurister->the_meta();?>

And check if post have thumnail:
<?php // Checks if there is a thumbnail and displays it
                if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {

                $size = 'thumbnail';
                $attr = array(
                'class' => 'post-logo');
                echo '
';
                echo the_post_thumbnail('large', $attr);
                echo '
';
                }
                else{
                // Do nothing
                }
    ?>

Change the code , to fit your idea.
Not sure if I understood exactly what you wanted to do. But hope this helps.

Mitten Crate is a monthly subscription box that delivers a carefully curated selection of delicious food, crafted in small batches by independent food producers from around the great state of Michigan. Every month you'll receive 5-6 local artisan foods to sample and enjoy.
The Products: Small-batch, artisan food locally made in the state of Michigan.
Ships to: the continental U.S.
Check out all of our Mitten Crate reviews and the Local Subscription Box Directory for more locally-sourced boxes!
For every Mitten Crate purchased, they donate to Gleaners Food Bank in Southeastern Michigan.
Mitten Crate also includes a card with information about all the brands and artisans they feature in that month's box. Being from Michigan myself, it's so much fun to find out about these businesses that are right near me!
This coffee roast is inspired by the city of Flint, MI – specifically by "the generations of men and women who have always risen early, worked hard, and stayed 'till the job was done." It's a dark roast with nutty notes, dark chocolate notes, and apple notes. These are whole beans so I haven't ground and brewed them yet, but I'm very excited to! It smells amazing.
Eeeek! I am not a spicy food person, though this is labeled as a milder sauce with 1,000-2,000 scoville units (which is the way to measure how spicy something is). The only ingredients are fire-roasted Poblano, apple cider vinegar, sea salt, distilled water, and olive oil. I tried this and honestly, it's hot but I can handle it! It takes a second for the heat to kick in, but – my favorite part – it also goes away quickly.
I used this for dinner last night to add some complexity and heat to a sauce. I also want to try to use it to imitate a tomato salad that a Mexican chef I used to work with would make from tomato scraps – I think it had tomato slices, garlic power, poblano, salt, and pepper. I'll have to taste test to recreate!
These chips have a nice and light texture from being kettle cooked, and I really liked the flavor! It was salty, tomato-y, and definitely had some heat.
I tried a different flavor of these this summer from Mitten Crate, and remember being very surprised with how much I liked them. I like this flavor, too! The kale is slightly crispy and has a ton of flavor.
The only complaint I have is that this container seems to be only 2/3 full. I know it's a sample container anyway, so I can't confirm whether or not it actually weighed in at 0.25 oz, but I feel like I remember the last flavor I tried being a fuller container.
This snack mix is a combination of cranberries, walnuts, almonds, blueberries, and cherries and comes in a reseal-able standing pouch. This is very fruity but I like it!
The Shrub Soda Co. Rhubarb & Apple Cider Vinegar Flavored Soda – Value $3.00?
This soda is made with rhubarb juice and apple cider vinegar (and sugar). There's supposed to be lots of benefits to drinking apple cider vinegar every day, and this is supposed to make it more fun/enjoyable. It's a great concept, but it's just pretty bitter. Maybe someone who drinks beer would enjoy it more. Plus, they supply a few cocktail recipes on their website, which I can see this being good for, too.
Verdict: This January wasn't my favorite Mitten Crate, but I enjoyed just about everything but the soda. The value this month adds up to only about $20, which I'm not happy with for a $35 box. I love Mitten Crate and I've found some amazing food through them in the past but recently their value hasn't been near breaking even with the cost of the box. I know curation/discovery plays a role in some of the value, but not enough to make up the difference here for me. I really hope they improve this for next and future months.

The American Harvest snack mix is $8.99 for 3.5 oz on Amazon so I think this gives the box a higher value. I would like to order the snack mix but it's not amazon prime and they add $5.51 for shipping which is more than I want to spend. I will look for it locally.


Posted November 7, 2013 by Will (Chief Information Officer) .
If we compared social media to a boxing event, we would have Facebook &Instagram in one corner and Twitter & Vine in the opposing. It seems lately that these partnerships are in a constant battle to keep up with one another in cutting edge updates for their social media outlets.
The latest change rolled out is Twitter's update to make timelines – on both the website and mobile app-more visual with image previews.
"These rich Tweets can bring your followers closer to what's happening, and make them feel like they are right there with you," Twitter commented in regards to the update.
The breakdown? You'll be able to tap on photos and videos in your timeline to expand the files right then and there ("in-line") rather than clicking a link that directs you away from your timeline. One caveat on videos – only Vine videos will be permitted to expand on the timeline while other source videos still require further link clicking.
In additional to image previews, changes to the mobile app include an update that allows you to reply, retweet, or favorite a tweet without having to tap on an individual tweet first.
How is the Twitterverse responding? As with all social media changes, it will take time for Tweeters to adjust to the new look and feel of Twitter. Some users are upset about the 'in-your-face' nature of these modifications but luckily, for those with the mobile app on their iPhone, there is an option to turn off the new in-line media feed.
Having issues keeping up with the whirlwind of changes and dynamic nature of the social media world? Call AMG today at 303-703-8000 or contact us online to stay on top of your social media marketing strategy.

The European Union this week urged feuding Romanian political factions to comply with a court decision to reinstate embattled President Traian Basescu to office.
The Constitutional Court in Romania reinstated ousted President Traian Basescu, ruling against an opposition referendum to oust him.
Romania views the Nabucco gas pipeline a priority but hasn't taken a formal stance against the alternate South Stream project, the country's president said.
Low voter turnout invalidated the vote on whether Romanian President Traian Basescu should be impeached.
Romanians were voting Sunday on whether President Traian Basescu should be impeached for undermining the constitution.
Romania is preparing for a national referendum on whether to remove President Traian Basescu from office, officials said.

The ruling coalition of Romania's government has accused President Traian Basescu of violating the country's constitution.
Romanian Prime Minister Emil Boc resigned Monday after weeks of public protests against spending cuts and other austerity measures.
Traian Băsescu (Romanian pronunciation: ); born 4 November 1951) is a Romanian politician and former Merchant Navy captain. After serving as Mayor of Bucharest from June 2000 until December 2004, he became President of Romania, after winning the office in the 2004 presidential election, and being inaugurated on December 20, 2004. Following presidential elections in 2009, Traian Basescu has been elected by popular vote for a second term of 5 years office as President of Romania.
On April 19, 2007 the Romanian Parliament voted to suspend Băsescu, and initiated an impeachment referendum, accusing him of violating the Constitution. Although the Constitutional Court found no evidence of that, it acknowledged the Parliament's vote on April 20, 2007, Băsescu remained suspended until the referendum took place on May 19, 2007. The results failed to confirm the impeachment: 24.75% voted to impeach Băsescu, and 74.48% to maintain him as president. Băsescu is the first president in the history of Romania who has been officially suspended.
He stood for reelection in 2009 and was declared as winner with a tight 50.33 percent of votes, versus 49.66 for Social Democrat challenger Mircea Geoană, according to final results released by the Central Electoral Bureau after counts in all polling stations . The opposition contested the result and vowed to challenge it in court, accusing Băsescu of electoral fraud. The Constitutional Court dismissed the challenges and validated his election after a recount of invalidated votes.

Urban or better known as EDC knives are popular tools for everyday carry. The initials EDC stand for every day carry.
Nowadays has developed philosophy associated with EDC. It is a "gentleman's kit" of an urban inhabitant, which includes all necessary things: from a laptop and credit card to a lighter and knife. It is convenient when necessary things are within touch. A popular knife that can be used for package unpacking, bread cutting in the office or self-defense purpose has earned its significant place in this kit.
• compliance with applicable law.
Looking ahead, it is worth mentioning that all product displayed on our website meet these requirements to full extent. If you want to buy a high quality handcrafted EDC knife, you have already found what you were looking for.
Note: all models of knives are provided with non-edged weapon official certificate.
First – material of high quality. Now the market is flooded with relatively unexpensive pieces from East Asia. But they lack advantages except the price and an attractive design. More often they cannot retain the edge, rust pretty quickly and chip. Why? – Due to cheap materials and lack of hardening. Such a piece will be suitable only for pencil sharpening and potatoes peeling. It won`t be able to withstand more or less heavy loads and soon it will fail.
The second aspect is a knife for a city should be comfortable for everyday carry. In other words, sheath and fasteners are required to retain it securely. You must agree how unpleasant it may feel to lose things in a public transport or walking in the park.
We have designed usable keen edges sheath with a clip. It can be attached to the belt and do not disturb while walking or running. Also there are special eyelets for additional fastening with a cord or paracord.
Moreover, we are launching a new production of wet-type sheath. It is even more convenient and practical. It is specially designed to ensure fast user's reach to the knife providing a secure mounting at the same time.
Thirdly, all EDC models are developed by experts of knife fight, champions and prize-winners of many competitions. These knives feel great in your hand and are convenient to use. They feature an easy-grip handle that is rare for the so-called "civil" models. Blade shapes and sharpening angle are optimal for each model.
EDC knife will not fail, it's ideal both for self defense and routine use.
Folding or urban (EDC) knife with a fixed blade?
1. Folding knife is vulnerable at connection points. Even high quality branded models can brake, get loose and being actively used become unusable.
2. It is known that a folding knife can jam in a crucial moment. Unsafe design can cause big trouble.
3. Folding EDC knife for daily carry is not suitable for use in gloves, so in winter you will need extra time to take off mittens, to extract the knife and open it.
Sometimes time is not only money, but also life.
We choose reliability and functionality, that is why we prefer full tang fixed knives made of one piece of steel with a full tang.
Popular EDC Knives from Blade Brothers Knives are made from domestic high carbon steel and are hardened to 55-58 HRC (standard models) or Austrian steel К110 hardened to 60 HRC (Premium models). These are significant characteristics not only for EDC but combat knives as well. You will never have a reason to question quality and reliability.
If you prefer burnished design take a look at standard concealed carry city knives, if you prefer classic bright steel, then it makes sense to consider a EDC knife from the premium series.
• If you prefer quick, cutting strokes order clinching knife the Reaper. This knife is suitable for those who are skilled in martial arts and close fight. It would work well in tight space.
Model Ira Domini allows you to apply strong, sweeping, chopping blows. It turns a mighty weapon in the right hands.
• Those who prefer both high-speed slashing and stabbing strokes should consider the Orkney Claw. If you apply reverse grip to the city knife it will feature a strong resemblance to karambit, but also ensures stabbing.
• Jarl is the most practical model, perfect for efficient use in daily life. In a conflict situation it allows to deliver powerful stabs cutting easily outerwear. Due to these properties it received the nickname "winter knife".
In fact, a EDC knife is a multifunctional all-purpose tool not limited in use. It is all about your taste and preferred technique. These knives proved themselves as weapon suitable for self-defense in street conflicts and showed its beneficial qualities during combat activity in the ATO area.
Here you can choose a good everyday carry knife for concealed carry and self-defense. Blade Brothers Knives makes knives for practitioners who intend to use it every day, our products will serve you well for many years. It is easy to buy a EDC knife in our online store, you need only to place an order on the site and we will send it to any city in the world and Ukraine.

The global burden of non-communicable diseases is rapidly increasing, and the essential management strategy is to follow a healthy lifestyle. Ayurveda can play a major role in this aspect, as the primary aim of Ayurveda is to prevent diseases by following a healthy lifestyle. However, in order to implement such classical knowledge (that is, healthy lifestyle based on Ayurvedic principles) into real practice, a systematic process needs to be followed. This systematic process must include robust research studies (that is, development and evaluation of Ayurveda-based lifestyle intervention) and behaviour change of people. This paper describes these two important steps in detail. In conclusion, there is a huge scope of implementing classical Ayurvedic knowledge into real practice, which will be beneficial to all of the society.

Prospect Profile: Erik Brannstrom
Terry Bechakas on June 19, 2017
Erik Brannstrom
HV 71/SHL
Position: Defensemen
Shoots: Left
Rankings:
Ranked 10th by Draft Analyst.
Ranked 17th by Jeff Marek (Sportsnet).
Ranked 18th by Future Considerations.
Ranked 19th by McKeen's Hockey.
Ranked 20th by Corey Pronman (ESPN).
Ranked 25th by Dobber Prospects.
As we continue to take a look at possible Sabres picks, the next player we will focus on is Swedish defensemen, Erik Brannstrom.
Brannstrom is an undersized defensemen standing only 5'9″ but his skating, hockey sense, and playmaking ability on the blue line make him one of the most intriguing prospects in the draft. Brannstrom played 19 games for the HV 71 J20 team, where he produced 23 points in 19 games as the captain. His 1.21 points per game in the SuperElit league were tops among U18 defensemen. In 35 games with HV 71, he produced a goal and five assists playing against men. His six points were 7th all time for u18 defensemen in the SHL.
Some teams may be a bit weary of his size but Jeff Marek of Sportsnet had this to say,
"NHL teams who favour a smart possession game will love Brannstrom. Undersized by traditional standards, but moves the puck great."
Brannstrom is behind only Cale Makar as one of the most dynamic offensive defensemen in this draft. He has the ability to quarterback a power play and move the puck up ice. His hockey sense is among the top of all players in the draft and that ability to read the ice makes up for his lack of size. He is a smooth skater and moves up the ice well.
As you can see in the clip of his first SHL goal, Brannstrom is able to transition quickly, beat the back checking forward, and find the open space before receiving the pass. He makes no mistake blasting one home.
In the second clip Brannstrom, now playing in the J20 league, shows his defensive ability coming across the ice and taking space away from the forward. He steals the puck and moves up the ice quickly before passing it off to his teammate who finishes it off at the other end. Once again in the clip of his goal, he shows his ability to move up the ice quickly, leading the rush, and finishing off the play with a beautiful shot.
Brannstrom is likely to go in the 20s but could go in the mid teens to a team willing to take the risk on smaller defensemen. It is unclear if his defensive game could translate over to the NHL level due to the size difference. His work ethic and compete level are not in question as he is a player who works diligently in the defensive zone. Rather his ability to battle bigger and stronger forwards in the corner and in front of the net at the next level, is in question.
If the Sabres decide to move back in the draft, Brannstrom would be a solid choice in the late teens. If he is able to build up his strength over the next couple of years, Brannstrom will be able to make the jump to the NHL. After a couple years of seasoning over seas, he could become the puck moving defensemen the Sabres desperately need when he finally makes it to North America.

Barium (pronounced /ˈbɛəriəm/) is a chemical element. It has the symbol Ba, and atomic number 56. Barium is a soft silvery metallic alkaline earth metal. It is never found in nature in its pure form due to its reactivity with air. Its oxide is historically known as baryta but it reacts with water and carbon dioxide and is not found as a mineral. The most common naturally occurring minerals are the very insoluble barium sulfate, BaSO4 (barite), and barium carbonate, BaCO3 (witherite). Benitoite is a rare gem containing barium.

Notable characteristics[edit | edit source]
Barium is a metallic element that is chemically similar to calcium but more reactive. This metal oxidizes very easily when exposed to air and is highly reactive with water or alcohol, producing hydrogen gas. Burning in air or oxygen produces not just barium oxide (BaO) but also the peroxide. Simple compounds of this heavy element are notable for their high specific gravity. This is true of the most common barium-bearing mineral, its sulfate barite BaSO4, also called 'heavy spar' due to the high density (4.5 g/cm³).
Applications[edit | edit source]
Barium has some medical and many industrial uses:
Barium compounds, and especially barite (BaSO4), are extremely important to the petroleum industry. Barite is used in drilling mud, a weighting agent in drilling new oil wells.
Barium sulfate is used as a radiocontrast agent for X-ray imaging of the digestive system ("barium meals" and "barium enemas").
Barium carbonate is a useful rat poison and can also be used in making bricks. Unlike the sulfate, the carbonate dissolves in stomach acid, allowing it to be poisonous.
An alloy with nickel is used in spark plug wire.
Barium oxide is used in a coating for the electrodes of fluorescent lamps, which facilitates the release of electrons.
The metal is a "getter" in vacuum tubes, to remove the last traces of oxygen.
Barium carbonate is used in glassmaking. Being a heavy element, barium increases the refractive index and luster of the glass.
Barite is used extensively in rubber production.
Barium nitrate and chlorate give green colors in fireworks.
Impure barium sulfide phosphoresces after exposure to the light.
Lithopone, a pigment that contains barium sulfate and zinc sulfide, is a permanent white that has good covering power, and does not darken in when exposed to sulfides.
Barium peroxide can be used as a catalyst to start an aluminothermic reaction when welding rail tracks together. It can also be used in green tracer ammunition.
Barium titanate was proposed in 2007[1] to be used in next generation battery technology for electric cars.
Barium Fluoride is used in infrared applications.
Barium is a key element in YBCO superconductors.
Barium (Greek barys, meaning "heavy") was first identified in 1774 by Carl Scheele and extracted in 1808 by Sir Humphry Davy in England. The oxide was at first called barote, by Guyton de Morveau, which was changed by Antoine Lavoisier to baryta, from which "barium" was derived to describe the metal.
Occurrence[edit | edit source]
Because barium quickly becomes oxidized in air, it is difficult to obtain this metal in its pure form. It is primarily found in and extracted from the mineral barite which is crystallized barium sulfate. Barium is commercially produced through the electrolysis of molten barium chloride (BaCl2) Isolation (* follow):
(cathode) Ba2+* + 2e- → Ba (anode) Cl-* → ½Cl2 (g) + e-
Compounds[edit | edit source]
The most important compounds are barium peroxide, barium chloride, sulfate, carbonate, nitrate, and chlorate.
Isotopes[edit | edit source]
Main article: isotopes of barium
Naturally occurring barium is a mix of seven stable isotopes. There are twenty-two isotopes known, but most of these are highly radioactive and have half-lives in the several millisecond to several minute range. The only notable exceptions are 133Ba which has a half-life of 10.51 years, and 137mBa (2.55 minutes).
Precautions[edit | edit source]
All water or acid soluble barium compounds are extremely poisonous. At low doses, barium acts as a muscle stimulant, while higher doses affect the nervous system, causing cardiac irregularities, tremors, weakness, anxiety, dyspnea and paralysis. This may be due to its ability to block potassium ion channels which are critical to the proper function of the nervous system.
Barium sulfate can be taken orally because it is highly insoluble in water, and is eliminated completely from the digestive tract. Unlike other heavy metals, barium does not bioaccumulate.[1] However, inhaled dust containing barium compounds can accumulate in the lungs, causing a benign condition called baritosis.
Oxidation occurs very easily and, to remain pure, barium should be kept under a petroleum-based fluid (such as kerosene) or other suitable oxygen-free liquids that exclude air.
Barium acetate could lead to death in high doses. Marie Robards poisoned her father with the substance in Texas in 1993. She was tried and convicted in 1996.

I've added new coins for 2007 to the US Coin Gallery from the State Quarters and Presidential Dollars programs.
It might be a little confusing now that there are three different coins bearing the name of George Washington: The Washington Quarter, the Washington State Quarter and the Washington Presidential Dollar. Then there's the one dollar bill which bears his name and likeness. Washington certainly made a large impact in the nation's history.
Oddly enough, the Sacagawea Dollar is still being minted, as the law that allowed the presidential dollars to be minted required that at least one fourth of the dollar coins issued in each year of the program be Sacagawea dollars. This has not been the case with the State Quarter and Westward Journey programs, where the production of the original coins ceased while the new coins were minted.
