The traditional crafts of the Oaxaca valley are well known around the world, especially the weavers. It is really quite an experience to see the traditional process from prepping the wool, spinning it, dyeing it, and then seeing how the patterns are woven.
The process is quite interesting. It is amazing how they can create a full palette of colors using only the minerals and plant material found around them. A little basic chemistry goes a long way in changing colors with acids from citrus and bases from minerals. Watching the color change in the palm of their hand is like watching a magic trick!
They even let us give it a try!
After watching the process of how the wool is cleaned, spun, and dyed we got a demonstration on how the different rugs, runners, purses, and pillow coverings are knotted up and woven. An interesting and precise process! The master weavers had fantastic pieces using both traditional patterns and very modern pieces that truly are pieces of art.

Where do you store your Honda?
The Honda 2000 generator has gotten a lot of discussion on the site particularly as it pertains to powering the boat's AC units.� I wrote a previous post describing my early experiences with this and� gave mixed reviews.� I had no problem powering the stern AC unit but did have difficulties with the 16,000 BTU main unit. This year, I installed a Dometic� SmartStart to the system and have had no issues running the main AC unit now. http://www.dometic.com/enie/Europe/Russia/Products/Marine/Marine-Leisure/SmartStart-Soft-Starter/ The SmartStart lessens the initial amp draw of the AC unit as it starts up.� I give this solution a strong recommendation if you expect the Honda to power a large AC unit.


The data represent what the Gulf of Maine would look like to the naked eye from the satellite view point.
Measures the speed and direction of near-surface winds, under all weather conditions.
By oceanographers to study ocean currents, temperature fronts, the amounts of phytoplankton (an indication of how productive the ocean is) and wind patterns. Two important aspects are relationships between these parameters and changes in both time and space in each.
Satellites provide information about the entire northeast region instantaneously. This is impossible to duplicate with ships or buoys. Satellite data complement the NERACOOS buoy program by providing information at locations other than the ten buoy sites. By sampling repetitively over many years, time series of satellite data allow studies of seasonal cycles and interannual differences. However, there are also some limitations to the information. Satellites see only the ocean surface. Subsurface conditions must be collected by other kinds of instruments from ships or mounted on buoys. Also, clouds and fog obscure both visible (ocean color) and infrared (temperature) information. For these reasons NERACOOS integrates data from a wide suite of instruments (satellites, buoys and ships) to provide the best possible coverage of marine conditions in the northeast.
For more information about satellite products please visit the University of Maine's Satellite Oceanography Data Laboratory.

Dante Exum practices during adidas Eurocamp day three at La Ghirada sports center on June 10, 2013 in Treviso, Italy. (Photo by Roberto Serra/Iguana Press/Getty Images)
Dante Exum Stats 2013, 2014: Watch Australian 2014 NBA Draft Player's Youtube Highlights
Dante Exum is projected to be the number four pick in the 2014 NBA Draft on Thursday night.
Exum hails from Australia, and is the son of Cecil Exum, an American who played for the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill in the 1980s.
Although Exum Senior won a title with the Tar Heels in 1982, Dante won't be following in his father's footsteps in college basketball, and has instead declared for the 2014 NBA Draft.
Exum attended Lake Ginninderra Secondary College and the Australian Institute of Sport.
In 2013, Exum took part in the Nike Hoop Summit for the World Select Team, and he racked up 16 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in a 112-98 win over the USA Junior Select Team.
The Aussie has also played for Australia in the 2012 FIBA Under-17 World Championship and the 2013 FIBA Under-19 World Championship. In particular, Exum averaged 18.2 points and 3.8 assists over nine games at the 2013 FIBA U19 tournament, and was named to the All-Tournament team.
Exum stands at 6'6, weighs 190 pounds, and has a 6'9 wingspan.
Check out an Associated Press report on the draft below.
76ers Thinking Big With Nos. 3, 10 Picks in Draft
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia 76ers scorched their roster and abandoned a competitive season all for one reason, the chance to turn the NBA draft into a cornerstone for a championship run.
The Sixers command the NBA's attention for once for something other than a 26-game losing streak. They hold the third and 10th picks Thursday night, and five more in the second round.
They are one of the more intriguing teams in the draft, dreaming of the potential that two top-10 picks hold, either as potential stars or as trade bait. But one thing is for sure, team president Sam Hinkie knows he can't go bust in a draft that could define the organization for a decade or more.
The Sixers hold the No. 3 pick because of a 19-63 record out of a team full of D-League castoffs and stopgap players. They have the No. 10 pick because of Hinkie's stunning 2013 draft night deal that saw them trade All-Star Jrue Holiday for Nerlens Noel and the pick.
The bold trade was the first sign that Hinkie wasn't afraid to think big — and only for the future — in his first season running the organization. The Sixers hit it big when they drafted point guard Michael Carter-Williams with the 11th pick and watched him blossom into the NBA rookie of the year.
Noel seems recovered from the torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee that cost him all of his rookie season.
MCW, Noel and two lottery picks could anchor a franchise stuck in the second half of the Eastern Conference for most of the last 13 years since their Allen Iverson-led run to the NBA finals.
Then again, Hinkie isn't afraid to wheel and deal, and few around the league believe the Sixers stand pat at 3 and 10.
Hinkie has refused to even hint at what the Sixers might do — the front office has gone silent since the draft lottery in May. Hinkie went into hiding, the Sixers refused to release names of prospects invited to workouts, and media was booted from their practice facility for trying to catch a word with potential No. 1 pick Andrew Wiggins during a secret workout.
The Sixers have closed their practice facility to the media again Thursday night and will not make Hinkie or other team personnel available.
Long the fourth team in Philadelphia's crowded sports market, the Sixers hoped to make a splash in the draft. They also have the Nos. 32, 39, 47, 52 and 54 overall picks.
"This is the time of year where there's a lot of information to be gained and a lot to be lost by the more you say," Hinkie said after the lottery. "You've got to be pretty careful that people don't know what it is you're trying to do."
You don't have to be Hinkie to know the pool of potential players available at No. 3. Wiggins and Kansas teammate Joel Embiid, Australian guard Dante Exum, and maybe Duke guard Jabari Parker could be up for grabs.
If the Sixers don't trade up to make a run at Wiggins, Exum could be the selection. The Australian guard is the top international prospect available and perhaps no coach in the league has a better scouting report than Philadelphia's Brett Brown. Brown spent a chunk of his career coaching in Australia, and coached Exum's father in the Australian National Basketball Association. Brown met Exum as a teen and watched him become a top prospect.
The Sixers proved last season they're not afraid to wait, trading for Noel even though they knew he wouldn't play a minute last season. Embiid, a 7-footer expected to be the No. 1 pick in the draft before a recently suffered stress fracture in his right foot, also fits into Hinkie's vision.
Unlike most of last season, the Sixers expected to come out a winner.
"There's a lot to be hopeful for, to have two top-10 picks in a draft like this," Hinkie said.
The Sixers tried not to use the word, tanked. But with so many starters dumped, from Holiday to Evan Turner to Spencer Hawes, in the last season, the Sixers knew they had to get bad before they can get good. Hinkie — and a beat down fan base — can only hope his gamble was the right one.
"Most of the top players in the draft find Philadelphia a really attractive place," he said. "They want to be in a place where they'll have opportunity, they want to play in a big market, and they recognize what a big platform it is to play in Philadelphia."


No one can hear that heart-wrenching cry that only comes out when I think of you.
And how you aren't here…and how are you not on this earth any more.
I know energy doesn't die…but my heart did. When you did.

Chapter 9. Chronostratigraphic Units
A. Nature of Chronostratigraphic Units
Chronostratigraphic units are bodies of rocks, layered or unlayered, that were formed during a specified interval of geologic time.
The units of geologic time during which chronostratigraphic units were formed are called geochronologic units.
The relation of chronostratigraphic units to other kinds of stratigraphic units is discussed in Chapter 10.
B. Definitions
1. Chronostratigraphy. The element of stratigraphy that deals with the relative time relations and ages of rock bodies.
2. Chronostratigraphic classification. The organization of rocks into units on the basis of their age or time of origin.
The purpose of chronostratigraphic classification is to organize systematically the rocks forming the Earth's crust into named units (chronostratigraphic units) corresponding to intervals of geologic time (geochronologic units) to serve as a basis for time-correlation and a reference system for recording events of geologic history.
3. Chronostratigraphic unit. A body of rocks that includes all rocks formed during a specific interval of geologic time, and only those rocks formed during that time span. Chronostratigraphic units are bounded by synchronous horizons.
The rank and relative magnitude of the units in the chronostratigraphic hierarchy are a function of the length of the time interval that their rocks subtend, rather than of their physical thickness.
4. Chronostratigraphic horizon (Chronohorizon). A stratigraphic surface or interface that is synchronous, everywhere of the same age.
C. Kinds of Chronostratigraphic Units
1. Hierarchy of formal chronostratigraphic and geochronologic unit terms. The Guide recommends the following formal chronostratigraphic terms and geochronologic equivalents to express units of different rank or time scope (Table 3).
Position within a chronostratigraphic unit is expressed by adjectives indicative of position such as:basal, lower, middle, upper, etc.; position within a geochronologic unit is expressed by temporal adjectives such as:early, middle, late, etc.
2.Stage (and Age). The stage has been called the basic working unit of chronostratigraphy because it is suited in scope and rank to the practical needs and purposes of intraregional chronostratigraphic classification.
a. Definition. The stage includes all rocks formed during an age. A stage is normally the lowest ranking unit in the chronostratigraphic hierarchy that can be recognized on a global scale.
It is a subdivision of a series.
b. Boundaries and stratotypes. A stage is defined by its boundary stratotypes, sections that contain a designated point in a stratigraphic sequence of essentially continuous deposition, preferably marine, chosen for its correlation potential.
The selection of the boundaries of the stages of the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic Scale deserves particular emphasis because such boundaries serve to define not only the stages but also chronostratigraphic units of higher rank, such as series and systems.
c. Time span. The lower and upper boundary stratotypes of a stage represent specific moments in geologic time, and the time interval between them is the time span of the stage. Currently recognized stages vary in time span, but most range between 2 and 10 million years.The thickness of the strata in a stage and its duration in time are independent variables of widely varying magnitudes.
d. Name. The name of a stage should be derived from a geographic feature in the vicinity of its stratotype or type area.
In English, the adjectival form of the geographic term is used with an ending in "ian" or "an". The age takes the same name as the corresponding stage.
3. Substage and Superstage
A substage is a subdivision of a stage whose equivalent geochronologic term is subage.
Adjacent stages may be grouped into a superstage. Names of substages and superstages follow the same rules as those of stages.
4. Series (and Epoch)
a. Definition. The series is a chronostratigraphic unit ranking above a stage and below a system. The geochronologic equivalent of a series is an epoch.
The terms superseries and subseries have been used only infrequently.
b. Boundaries and boundary-stratotypes. Series are defined by boundary stratotypes (see section 9.H).
c. Time span. See section 9.D.
The time span of currently accepted series ranges from 13 to 35 million years.
d. Name. A new series name should be derived from a geographic feature in the vicinity of its stratotype or type area. The names of most currently recognized series, however, are derived from their position within a system:lower, middle, upper.
Names of geographic origin should preferably be given the ending "ian" or "an".
The epoch corresponding to a series takes the same name as the series except that the terms "lower" and "upper" applied to a series are changed to "early" and "late" when referring to an epoch.
e. Misuse of"series". The use of the term "series" for a lithostratigraphic unit more or less equivalent to a group should be discontinued.
5. System (and Period)
a. Definition. A system is a unit of major rank in the conventional chronostratigraphic hierarchy, above a series and below an erathem. The geochronologic equivalent of a system is a period.Occasionally, the terms subsystem and supersystem have been used.
b. Boundaries and boundary-stratotypes. The boundaries of a system are defined by boundary-stratotypes (see section 9.H).
c. Time span. The time span of the currently accepted Phanerozoic systems ranges from 30 to 80 million years, except for the Quaternary System that has a time span of only about 1.64 million years.
d. Name. The names of currently recognized systems are of diverse origin inherited from early classifications: some indicate chronologic position (Tertiary, Quaternary), others have lithologic connotation (Carboniferous, Cretaceous), others are tribal (Ordovician, Silurian), and still others are geographic (Devonian, Permian).
Likewise, they bear a variety of endings such as "an", "ic", and "ous". There is no need to standardize the derivation or orthography of the well-established system names. The period takes the same name as the system to which it corresponds.
6. Erathem (and Era). An erathem consists of a group of systems.
The geochronologic equivalent of an erathem is an era.The names of erathems were chosen to reflect major changes of the development of life on the Earth:
Paleozoic (old life), Mesozoic (intermediate life), and Cenozoic (recent life). Eras carry the same name as their corresponding erathems.
7. Eonothem (and Eon). An eonothem is a chronostratigraphic unit greater than an erathem. The geochronologic equivalent is an eon. Three eonothems are generally recognized, from older to younger, the Archean, Proterozoic and Phanerozoic eonothems. The combined first two are usually referred to as the Precambrian.
The eons take the same name as their corresponding eonothems.
8. Nonhierarchical formal chronostratigraphic units - the Chronozone.
a. Definition. A chronozone is a formal chronostratigraphic unit of unspecified rank, not part of the hierarchy of conventional chronostratigraphic units. It is the body of rocks formed anywhere during the time span of some designated stratigraphic unit or geologic feature. The corresponding geochronologic unit is the chron.
b. Time span. The time span of a chronozone is the time span of a previously designated stratigraphic unit or interval, such as a lithostratigraphic, biostratigraphic, or magnetostratigraphic polarity unit.It should be recognized, however, that while the stratigraphic unit on which the chronozone is based extends geographically only as far as its diagnostic properties can be recognized, the corresponding chronozone includes all rocks formed everywhere during the time span represented by the designated unit. For instance, a formal chronozone based on the time span of a biozone includes all strata equivalent in age to the total maximum time span of that biozone regardless of the presence or absence of fossils diagnostic of the biozone (Figure 8).
Chronozones may be of widely different time spans. The designation of the boundaries of a chronozone and of its time span can be done in several ways depending on the nature of the stratigraphic unit on which the chronozone is based.If the unit has a designated stratotype, the boundaries and time span of the chronozone can be made to correspond either to those of the unit at its stratotype or to the total time span of the unit, which may be longer than that at the stratotype.
In this second case, the boundaries and time span of the chronozone would vary with increasing information concerning the time span of the unit.If the unit on which the chronozone is based is of the type which cannot appropriately have a designated stratotype, such as a biostratigraphic unit, its time span cannot be defined either because the time span of the reference unit may change with increasing information (see section 7.A).
c. Geographic extent. The geographic extent of a chronozone is, in theory, worldwide, but its pplicability is limited to the area over which its time span can be identified, which is usually less.
d. Name. A chronozone takes its name from the stratigraphic unit on which it is based, e.g., Exus albus Chronozone, based on the Exus albus Range Zone.
D. The Standard Global Chronostratigraphic (Geochronologic) Scale
1. Concept. A major goal of chronostratigraphic classification is the establishment of a hierarchy of chronostratigraphic units of worldwide scope, which will serve as a standard scale of reference for the dating of all rocks everywhere and for relating all rocks everywhere to world geologic history (See section 9.B.2). All units of the standard chronostratigraphic hierarchy are theoretically worldwide in extent, as are their corresponding time spans.
2. Present status. Table 4 shows the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic (Geochronologic) Scale of common current usage.
Numerical ages taken from recently published geologic time scales are added. Only the major units for which there is general agreement are shown.
E. Regional Chronostratigraphic Scales
The units of the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic (Geochronologic) Scale are valid only as they are based on sound, detailed local and regional stratigraphy.Accordingly, the route toward recognition of uniform global units is by means of local or regional stratigraphic scales.Moreover, regional units will probably always be needed whether or not they can be correlated with the standard global units.It is better to refer strata to local or regional units with accuracy and precision rather than to strain beyond the current limits of time correlation in assigning these strata to units of a global scale. Local or regional chronostratigraphic units are governed by the same rules as are established for the units of the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic Scale.
F. Subdivision of the Precambrian
The Precambrian has been subdivided into arbitrary geochronometric units, but it has not been subdivided into chronostratigraphic units recognizable on a global scale.
There are prospects that chronostratigraphic subdivision of much of the Precambrian may eventually be attained through isotopic dating and through other means of time correlation.However, the basic principles to be used in subdividing the Precambrian into major chronostratigraphic units should be the same as for Phanerozoic rocks, even though different emphasis may be placed on various means of time correlation, predominantly isotopic dating.
G. Quaternary Chronostratigraphic Units
The basic principles used in subdividing the Quaternary into chronostratigraphic units are the same as for other Phanerozoic chronostratigraphic units, although the methods of time correlation may have a different emphasis.As in the case of other chronostratigraphic units, those of the Quaternary require boundary definitions and designation of boundary stratotypes.
H. Procedures for Establishing Chronostratigraphic Units. See also section 3.B.
1. Boundary stratotypes as standards. The essential part of the definition of a chronostratigraphic unit is the time span during which the unit described was formed. Since the only record of geologic time and of the events of geologic history lies in the rocks themselves, the best standard for a chronostratigraphic unit is a body of rocks formed between two designated instants of geologic time.
For these reasons, the boundaries of a chronostratigraphic unit of any rank are defined by two designated reference points in the rock sequence.
The two points are located in the boundary-stratotypes of the chronostratigraphic unit which need not be part of a single section.Both, however, should be chosen in sequences of essentially continuous deposition since the reference points for the boundaries should represent points in time as specific as possible (see section 9.H.3).
2. Advantage of defining chronostratigraphic units by their lower boundary stratotypes. The definition of a chronostratigraphic unit places emphasis in the selection of the boundary-stratotype of its lower boundary; its upper boundary is defined as the lower boundary of the succeeding unit. This procedure avoids gaps and overlaps in the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic Scale.
For example, should it be shown that the selected horizon is at the level of an undetected break in the sequence, then the missing span of geologic history would belong to the lower unit by definition and ambiguity is avoided.
3. Requirements for the selection of boundary stratotypes of chronostratigraphic units. Chronostratigraphic units offer the best promise of being identified, accepted, and used globally and of being, therefore, the basis for international communication and understanding because they are defined on the basis of their time of formation, a universal property. Particularly important in this respect are the units of the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic (Geochronologic) Scale. The term "Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point" (GSSP) has been proposed for the standard boundary-stratotypes of the units of this scale.
In addition to the general requirements for the selection and description of stratotypes (section 4.C), boundary-stratotypes of chronostratigraphic units should fulfill the following requirements:
* The boundary-stratotypes must be selected in sections representing essentially continuous deposition.The worst possible choice for a boundary-stratotype of a chronostratigraphic unit is at an unconformity.
* The boundary-stratotypes of Standard Global Chronostratigraphic Units should be in marine, fossiliferous sections without major vertical lithofacies or biofacies changes.Boundary stratotypes of chronostratigraphic units of local application may need to be in a nonmarine section.
* The fossil content should be abundant, distinctive, well preserved, and represent a fauna and/or flora as cosmopolitan and as diverse as possible.
* The section should be well exposed and in an area of minimal structural deformation or surficial disturbance, metamorphism and diagenetic alteration, and with ample thickness of strata below, above and laterally from the selected boundary-stratotype.
* Boundary stratotypes of the units of the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic Scale should be selected in easily accessible sections that offer reasonable assurance of free study, collection, and long-range preservation. Permanent field markers are desirable.
* The selected section should be well studied and collected and the results of the investigations published, and the fossils collected from the section securely stored and easily accessible for study in a permanent facility.
* The selection of the boundary stratotype, where possible, should take account of historical priority and usage and should approximate traditional boundaries.
* To insure its acceptance and use in the Earth sciences, a boundary stratotype should be selected to contain as many specific marker horizons or other attributes favorable for long-distance time correlation as possible.
The IUGS International Commission on Stratigraphy is the body responsible for coordinating the selection and approval of GSSPs of the units of the Standard Global Chronostratigraphic (Geochronologic) Scale.
I. Procedures for Extending Chronostratigraphic Units-Chronocorrelation (Time Correlation)
The boundaries of chronostratigraphic units are synchronous horizons by definition. In practice, the boundaries are synchronous only so far as the resolving power of existing methods of time correlation can prove them to be so.
All possible lines of evidence should be utilized to extend chronostratigraphic units and their boundaries. Some of the most commonly used are:
1. Physical Interrelations of strata. The Law of Superposition states that in an undisturbed sequence of sedimentary strata the uppermost strata are younger than those on which they rest.
The determination of the order of superposition provides unequivocal evidence for relative age relations.
All other methods of relative age determination are dependent on the observed physical sequence of strata as a check on their validity. For a sufficiently limited distance, the trace of a bedding plane is the best indicator of synchroneity.
2. Lithology. Lithologic properties are commonly influenced more strongly by local environment than by age, the boundaries of lithostratigraphic units eventually cut across synchronous surfaces, and similar lithologic features occur repeatedly in the stratigraphic sequence. Even so, a lithostratigraphic unit always has some chronostratigraphic connotation and is useful as an approximate guide to chronostratigraphic position, especially locally.
Distinctive and widespread lithologic units also may be diagnostic of chronostratigraphic position.
3. Paleontology. The orderly and progressive course of organic evolution is irreversible with respect to geologic time and the remains of life are widespread and distinctive.
For these reasons, fossil taxa, and particularly their evolutionary sequences, constitute one of the best and most widely used means of tracing and correlating beds and determining their relative age.
Biostratigraphic correlation, however, is not time correlation because homotaxy between samples may result from other causes than that the samples are equal in age.
4. Isotopic age determinations. Isotopic dating methods (U-Pb, Rb-Sr, K-Ar, Ar-Ar) based on the radioactive decay of certain parent nuclides at a rate that is constant and suitable for measuring geologic time provide chronostratigraphic data of high precision with analytical errors in the range of 0.1 to 2 percent. However, not all rock types and minerals are amenable to isotopic age determination.
Isotopic dating contributes age values expressed in years and it provides the major hope for working out the ages and age relationships of Precambrian rocks.
In some circumstances, isotopic age determinations provide the most accurate or even the only basis for age determination and chronostratigraphic classification of sedimentary, volcanic and other igneous rocks.
Discrepancies in age results may arise from the use of different decay constants.
It is important to geological comparisons, therefore, that the uniform sets of decay constants recommended by the IUGS Subcommission on Geochronology be used.
A method of age determination through radioactivity differing from those mentioned above is that based on the proportion of the radiocarbon isotope (14C) to normal carbon in the organic matter of sediments. This method has been extremely valuable but is limited in application to the dating of upper Quaternary strata.
5. Geomagnetic polarity reversals. Periodic reversals of the polarity of the Earth's magnetic field are utilized in chronostratigraphy, particularly in upper Mesozoic and Cenozoic rocks where a magnetic time scale has been developed. Polarity reversals are, however, binary and specific ones cannot be identified without assistance from some other method of dating such as biostratigraphy or isotopic dating.
6. Paleoclimatic change. Climatic changes leave imprints on the geological record in the form of glacial deposits, evaporites, red beds, coal deposits, faunal changes, etc.
Their effects on the rocks may be local or widespread and provide valuable information for chronocorrelation, but they must be used in combination with other specific methods.
7. Paleogeography and eustatic changes in sea level. As a result of either epeirogenic movements of the land masses or eustatic rises and lowerings of the sea level, certain periods of Earth history are characterized worldwide by a general high or low stand of the continents with respect to sea level. The evidence in the rocks of the resulting transgressions, regressions, and unconformities can furnish an excellent basis for establishing a worldwide chronostratigraphic framework. The identification of a particular event, however, is complicated by local vertical movements and so the method requires auxiliary help in order to identify the events correctly.
8. Unconformities. Even though a surface of unconformity varies in age and time-value from place to place and is never universal in extent, certain unconformities may serve as useful guides to the approximate placement of chronostratigraphic boundaries.
Unconformities, however, cannot fulfill the requirements for the selection of such boundaries (see section 9.H.3).
9. Orogenies. Crustal disturbances have a recognizable effect on the stratigraphic record.However, the considerable duration of many orogenies, their local rather than worldwide nature, and the difficulty of precise identification make them unsatisfactory indicators of worldwide chronostratigraphic correlation.
10. Other indicators. Many other lines of evidence may in some circumstances be helpful as guides to time-correlation and as indicators of chronostratigraphic position.
Some are more used than others, but none should be rejected.
J. Naming of Chronostratigraphic Units
A formal chronostratigraphic unit is given a binomial designation - a proper name plus a term-word - and the initial letters of both are capitalized.Its geochronologic equivalent uses the same proper name combined with the equivalent geochronologic term, e.g., Cretaceous System - Cretaceous Period.
The proper name of a chronostratigraphic or geochronologic unit may be used alone where there is no danger of confusion, e.g. "the Aquitanian" in place of "the Aquitanian Stage". See sections 3.B.3, and 3.B.4.
K. Revision of Chronostratigraphic Units. See sections 3.B and 9.H.

Kids' Sports: Playing Safe to Avoid Overuse Injuries
Posted By Tanya Racoobian On August 21, 2018 @ 7:00 am In Children's Health,Education,Health Education,Life,Orthopedics & Sports Medicine,Research,Wellness & Prevention | No Comments
Students returning to the classroom this time of year also means many are resuming sports activities on fields and courts. While the competition and excitement of winning are positive lures, the explosion of youth sports in recent years has produced a surge in injuries.
"We've definitely seen a spike in the number of kids getting hurt from playing sports in the last five-to-six years," said Roger Saldana, M.D. [1], a pediatric orthopedic surgeon with Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute [2] at Baptist Children's Hospital [3]. "Kids are starting to play at younger ages, specializing in one sport sooner, playing on multiple teams at the same time and not resting enough."
Longer engagements in organized sports and decreased diversity in playing multiple sports are contributing to kids getting hurt, he adds.
"Playing one sport too much at a young age puts young athletes at risk of overuse injuries," Dr. Saldana said.
Concerned by the number of U.S. youth getting hurt, sports medicine specialists, other doctors involved in treating kids and national youth sports organizations commissioned a study to look at the issues. Their conclusion: less time playing and focusing on one sport and more overall skill development.
"Early sport specialization may not lead to long-term success in sports and may increase risk for overuse injury and burnout," said the group's position statement published in the Clinical Journal of Sports Medicine [4]. "Sport diversification should be encouraged at younger ages," it added. And "when an overuse injury is diagnosed, it is essential to address the underlying cause(s). The athlete, parents and coaches should be involved in reviewing all risk factors and developing a strategy to attempt to avoid recurrent injury."
Dr. Saldana says when kids change up the sports they play, different muscles get used which, in turn, helps the body handle the impact of an athlete's main sport.
Among the most common overuse conditions Dr. Saldana sees in young athletes are shoulder injuries caused by overhead motions, such as the motions baseball players and swimmers perform. Other common injury sites are soccer and football players' knees, gymnasts' wrists and back, dancers' feet and baseball players' elbows.
Pitchers are increasingly having "Tommy John Surgery" to repair their elbows at younger ages, Dr. Saldana said. "We hardly ever saw this type of injury in kids younger than 16," he adds. "But now we're seeing these types of torn ligaments in younger kids."
"A lot of the overuse injuries interfere with a child's growth plate," adds Dr. Saldana. "Their bodies don't have the capacity to handle and heal in time from too much repeated motion. These small 'traumas' are the definition of overuse."
Avoiding Overuse Injuries in Kids
While some experts may tout cross-training as a way to work different muscles and prevent injuries, Dr. Saldana cautions about too much training.
"My quick and easy rule for training in one sport is no more hours per week than the child's age," he said.
In addition, Dr. Saldana says one of the most important ways to prevent an overuse injury doesn't involve any type of movement or action. He stresses the importance of rest.
"When given enough time to rest, most of these kids recover and go on to playing their sport," he says. "There's really no place for pain in kids' sports. While adults may motivate themselves physically with a 'No Pain, No Gain" motto, this is detrimental to kids."
Youth sports have a plethora of benefits, like cardiovascular and learning how to work with teams, Dr. Saldana adds. But there's no reason to push kids to extremes, like a 10-year old who's been having pain for three months, a condition he's helped treat several times.
The main message Dr. Saldana wants to get across to parents and kids about playing youth sports is: listen to the body. He advocates stretching before games, matches and tournaments. Anecdotally, we know it helps warm up the body and prevent injuries, he said.
"Kids should not be playing through pain — the pain's there for a reason," Dr. Saldana adds. "Resting, stretching and learning proper techniques are key in preventing injuries."

If there is one thing that is frustrating when it comes to money is to have a very low credit score. This is most disturbing especially if you are having financial difficulties. However, this is not the time for you to despair. Rather read along this article and learn the best way you can improve your credit score.
Before you go any further in trying to fix your credit score, it is better to confirm if all your details are correct. Make sure there is no misspelling of your names, address, and bank account details.
The main reason why most people end up having a very low credit score is that they carry multiple credit balances. From now onwards you have to pay off all of your credit cards. In addition, you can save yourself a lot of money by making sure all your cards consist of a 0% interest. This will also save you some money to play on sports betting sites and win big.
It is very fundamental that you set aside the date that is favourable and convenient for you. If your bills come on the 10th and you are getting paid on the 25th, it is best you go back on the drawing board and plan accordingly ,just like playing Jeux de casino en ligne gratuits and your favourite casino. However, if it is beyond your reach make payments using your credit card. But you have to make sure that you pay them off as soon as your salary is confirmed.
Always try to limit and avoid using many credit cards. This will definitely affect your credit score. However, if you have more than four cards try and get rid of the rest. Especially the ones that you rarely use. Moreover, be on the lookout for online shops that will always offer you a one-time cash bonus for opening a credit card with them. Make sure you avoid such scenarios to have a better credit score.

The year's end has finally come and passed, and unfortunately, this will be my last post for my 2016 "A Week in Photos" posts. I've decided not to continue with these posts in 2017, because over the course of the year, these posts started to feel like a chore, and I was no longer enjoying them. I look forward to sharing my life updates via posts, but not necessarily weekly updates.
I hope you'll keep up with me in 2017!
Thursday, 12/22: A coworker brought in some donuts to work from a local donut shop, and jeez Louise. were they good. This one's a carrot cake (my favorite).
Friday, 12/23: Finished up some last minute gift wrapping before hoping over to my parents' house for Christmas festivities.
Saturday, 12/24: Merry Christmas Eve folks.
Sunday, 12/25: Hubby gifted me with the best presents ever! How awesome is he?
Monday, 12/26 & Tuesday, 12/27: Just being lazy and lots of lounging around and whatnot forced me to forget to snap any pictures. Happy holidays, folks!
Wednesday, 12/28: Andre and I had dinner with my friend, Julie, and she gave me this awesome Marauders Map mug (it's bigger than my face!), and a sugar-free cookbook and a Fantastic Beasts calendar!
Thursday, 12/29: Just sharing some teatox bags during my last few days of my SkinnyMint teatox.
Friday, 12/30: More lounging. Just living the life here, y'all!
Saturday, 12/31: Happy New Year's Eve! Andre and I stopped by the local donut shop (where the carrot cake donut above came from) and got coffee and some donuts. I got the carrot cake again. It's just too good!
How was your last week of 2016?
That carrot cake donut sounds amazing! My husband and I always accidentally end up getting each other similar gifts, and this year our theme ended up being HP, which was awesome! I got him the two illustrated editions, and even though I read the whole series through in the last third of 2016, I think I'm going to have to start again just to read the illustrated versions!
I would recommend it! The illustrated versions are a completely different experience. So worth it!


Do you know what your 401(k) plan is costing you as the employer? What it is costing you as a participant?
The average cost to offer a company sponsored 401(k) plan is between 2.0 to 3.0% of the value of plan assets! Many business owners are under the impression that they are not paying any costs for the company retirement plan, but that is simply not true. Despite the many investment platforms available, there are a limited number of ways the fees can be charged. Fees can be paid by the employer, paid by the participants, or a combination where the fees are shared between the employer and participants. A generous employer that picks up these costs does not want the cost to be a drag on the profitability of the corporation. If participants are paying the costs, you do not want it to be a drag on the investment performance of their (your) retirement savings. The goal is to keep costs as low as possible without sacrificing the integrity of the plan.
Did you know that you have choices in how the plan is set up? Those choices could allow for additional funding each year. Is your current plan set up to maximize the benefit to you as an owner?
Is your staff spending too much time administering the current 401(k) plan, wouldn't it make sense to empower your employees to make the changes themselves instead of paying your staff to oversee every change within the plan?
When is the last time your employees were educated on what their retirement plan can do for them?
If you are interested in understanding how your current plan is set up, we would be glad to provide you with an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of your plan. We can also provide you with an alternative option for comparison purposes. Please contact Chad Halbur at 1-866-200-6528 or via email at cornerstone@cornerstonetrust.net if you are interested in discussing how your retirement plan can reach its greatest potential.

If you are looking for a truly one of a kind art piece- perhaps as a gift that will wow, or something for yourself, PLEASE look no further than Ms. Lord. Her work is exceptional, she is an excellent communicator when crafting your piece, and you will be left with a painting that will leave everyone admiring it. Extraordinary attention to detail and a keen eye for color that creates a truly wonderful work of art. I cannot recommend her enough- she worked with me (and my budget!!) to give me the gift of a lifetime. Again, a simple review can't convey my gratitude nor her talent. 5 stars on all counts.
Letting my mind wander I am able to apply color to the canvas to create moods and feelings. These are a joy to create.
Dimensions: the bigger the better with abstract art!

Perhaps one of the most famous wrestlers of all time, Jake "The Snake" Roberts is currently in the hospital recovering after a serious bout of pneumonia. This health scare came after Jake had possibly the greatest comeback in wrestling history. No, he hasn't wrestled in years and might not ever again. Jake's comeback has been a personal one. After years of being in the spotlight, Jake developed a serious addiction to alcohol and hard drugs.
Jake "The Snake" Roberts had a pretty messed up childhood. I'm not going to get into it, but it was….shall we say f**ked up. He was able to overcome those early childhood events and turn that into some serious acting skills. Jake started wrestling in the 70s and hit his popularity in the late 80s/early 90s with the World Wrestling Federation. He was known for being one of the best psychologist and talkers in the industry.
Jake would appear and disappear from the spotlight many times throughout the 90s. In the 2000s, Jake wasn't much around. The last memory anyone had of him was his appearance in the documentary Beyond The Mat, which depicted him as a down and out drug addict.
From what we heard, Jake was seriously battling his inner demons. Many were shocked as the years went on, seemingly "healthy" wrestlers were passing away and Jake was still surviving. He hated life. He wanted to die and was at his lowest. Then he found a friend….Diamond Dallas Page. Page, a former wrestler himself, had been making a splash in the home fitness market with DDP Yoga. Page not only wanted to prove that DDP Yoga would work on anyone, but he really wanted to help his longtime friend and mentor. So, DDP had Jake move into his house, cleaned him up and got him back into shape. The results were amazing. After a lifetime of pain, Jake Roberts was finally starting to feel happy about himself. And in April 2014, he was honored by the WWE and inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Jake in the hospital right now is scary. It's scary because it's not a fitting end to his comeback story. A fitting end would be for Jake to enjoy his remaining days, be a positive image for DDP Yoga, and mentor the youngster of today. We wish Jake nothing but the best.
God I love old school wrestling. Child of the '90's baby.

Manny Pacquiao aimed a sly dig at rival Floyd Mayweather on Tuesday as he suggested that the American's 'TMT' slogan actually stands for 'The Manny Team'.
Why Mayweather will beat Pacquiao: Analysis on why Money can deal with Pac-Man's threat.
Why Pacquiao will beat Mayweather: Analysis on why big upset is more than possible.
Malignaggi says Brit duo too dangerous for Mayweather: Brook and Khan likely to be left disappointed.
Pacquiao arrived in Las Vegas on Monday and held a fan rally at the Mandalay Bay resort where he was greeted by a significant following ahead of his super-fight against Mayweather at the MGM Grand on Saturday night.
While the Filipino insisted that he was excited for the bout and told his fans to relax as he is confident that he will win, he later met with a select group of media to discuss the upcoming bout.
The 36-year-old was asked about a new shirt that Mayweather has created which has his face on it outlined by the colours of the Filipino flag and his trademark 'TMT' slogan emblazoned on it.
While that of course stands for 'The Money Team' for the unbeaten American superstar, Pacquiao couldn't help but have some fun with it and joked with reporters.
"That's good. That's good that he wants to join our team. TMT, stands for 'The Manny Team'," he said, according to Boxing Scene, which was greeted with laughter from the media.
Pacquiao certainly looks calm and relaxed in the build-up to the biggest fight of his career, and essentially all the hard work has been done in training camp. All that is left is for him to enjoy the events of fight week and stay composed ahead of what will be an historic night for the sport.
Meanwhile, Mayweather is expected to make his grand entrance at the MGM Grand later on Tuesday night, with Pacquiao opting for a smaller welcome at the rival hotel as promoter Bob Arum had previously insisted that he could do without the scrum and attention that comes at the venue for Saturday's fight.
The pair will meet at the final press conference on Wednesday before the weigh-in on Friday draws a close to fight week, which in turn will leave nothing left but for the duo to settle their rivalry in the ring on Saturday night.


This title sure caught my eye: "Andrei Platonov: Russia's greatest 20th-century prose stylist?" Here's a link to the article, Daniel Kalder's guardian.co.uk interview with translator Robert Chandler.
Chandler, who translated Andrei Platonov's Котлован (The Foundation Pit) not once but twice, speaks here, among other things, about the repeat translation, Platonov's language, and some odd realities connected with The Foundation Pit.
The stories? Pushkin's "Пиковая дама" ("The Queen of Spades") and Platonov's "Возвращение" ("The Return"), both of which are personal favorites of mine, too. "The Return," by the way, is written in fairly simple language, making it a good way for non-native readers of Russian to introduce themselves to Platonov. I wrote a bit about "The Return" in this 2008 Victory Day post.
So is Platonov is Russia's greatest 20th-century prose stylist? I'm not sure but Chandler's interview brought back memories of how much I loved the piercing precision of "The Return." I think it's time to push Ювенильное море (The Juvenile Sea) to the top of the book pile.
Another finalist, José Manuel Prieto's Rex, translated from the Spanish by Esther Allen, has Russian characters, and the author, who was born in Cuba, lived in Russia for twelve years. Grove, the publisher, sent me a copy of the book last year and, though I have yet to read it, it looks inviting despite my fear of Proustian themes… maybe this is the push I need to finally read it. For more: Chad Post's Three Percent post on Rex.
Also: Scott Esposito, an award judge, wrote this post for The Millions about literary translation and the shortlist.
Meanwhile, Dwight Garner's positive review of Elif Batuman's The Possessed: Adventures with Russian Books and the People Who Read Them appeared in today's New York Times. Any book with a title like that plus cover art by Roz Chast scares the hell out of me – what if the book isn't as good as its cover? – but this one sounds like fun. The Times posted an excerpt, "Babel in California," here.
Start small, not with War and Peace or Crime and Punishment. I built my Russian reading stamina, speed, and fluency with short stories and novellas.
Look for familiar vocabulary. Search out books that fit your vocabulary strengths. For example, war novels may be difficult if you don't know military terminology.
Use free resources. If you're not sure what fits your reading level or interests, order books through interlibrary loan or look at texts online for a test read. Sites like Журнальный зал and the Moshkov library are great places to start. Many author sites are helpful, too.
Know why you're reading. Are you reading for enjoyment or to parse sentences and study vocabulary? Or both? Any goal is fine but choose your books accordingly.
Don't translate as you read! The less you translate in your head, the faster you'll build your reading skills. Try to figure out unfamiliar words using context, roots, logic, and intuition before you reach for the dictionary. Reread passages as needed.
Read what interests you. Read genres that keep you turning pages in your native language: don't feel guilty if you choose action or romance novels! I got back into reading Russian six years ago with detective novels, then I branched out.
Quit while you're ahead. If you're not enjoying a book, don't finish it. Sometimes I pick up abandoned books months or years later and love them.
EZier Reader. From now on, I'll mention the relative difficulty of books in my posts. I'll mark the easier ones with an "EZier reader" tag.
Now, the list: Here are some stories and shorter novels that felt relatively easy to me when I read them – remember that individual vocabularies and tolerances differ greatly. I'll keep commentary minimal to fit as many titles as possible. Please e-mail me or add a comment if you have questions. This is only a small list: other suggestions are welcome!
First novel (I think): Julia Voznesenskaya's Женский декамерон (The Women's Decameron) – 10 women x 10 days = 100 stories. And very manageable reading.
Zakhar Prilepin's Грех (Sin) (previous post) – Prilepin's Санькя (San'kia) looks relatively simple in style and language, too.
Sergei Lukyanenko's Ночной дозор (Night Watch) – vampires, conspiracy theory, etc.
Yevgeny Grishkovets's Рубашка (The Shirt) or "Спокойствие" ("Serenity") – feel-good and often lite but Grishkovets has a great understanding of psychology that makes it easy to identify with his stories. Unusually easy reading.
Andrei Gelasimov's "Жанна" ("Joan") (previous post) – Gelasimov's longer work is generally more difficult.


I'm SUCH a musical genius.
Like every Asian out there. Because really, guys, everyone knows that giving an Asian a violin and a bow is like giving birth to the next Mozart.
I think that's the funny thing about Asian stereotypes: some of them may not even be intended to come across as mean, but we Asians still don't like them. We don't like the "Asians are terrible drivers" or the "Ay-see-unsu kant speeku Engrish" stereotypes, and we don't like the "Asians are musical geniuses" or "Asians are artistic geniuses" or "Asians are just geniuses in general" stereotypes, either. Why? Because they aren't always true.
This may be pretty hard to believe, but we don't like it when people think we're amazing mathematicians, artists (and martial artists), or musicians simply because we're Asian. When people make these assumptions, they're really looking at the higher end of the spectrum (for reasons I fail to understand). It may be true that there are a lot of Asians out there who are good at these things, but don't discount the majority of Asians who aren't.
Take me, for example. If you've actually read any of my previous posts, you'd know that I'm not exactly what one would call a shining example of Stereotypical Extraordinary Asianness. Despite this, people tell me that I'm a stereotypically artistic Asian. Sure, I like to draw, but that doesn't mean I'm good at it. As for math, well, I'm not doing so well in the class right now because I'm missing a few assignments. In fact, I should be studying for my test tomorrow. And don't get me started on martial arts. Kung-fu? Kung-who now?
People in my band tell me I'm a musical prodigy all the time. I'll admit; I like music. I like playing the cello. But I play the cello in a school band comprised mainly of saxophones, trumpets, trombones, guitars, and pianos (think: awkward), and I'm having some, er, issues living up to the 'musical prodigy' standard. [Hint: you have to be good to be a prodigy, and in order to be good, you have to actually spend the time to practice.] Heck, this particular Asian standard wasn't even set by Asians, and I'm still struggling to meet it. Why do we Asians have to try to be everything other people perceive us to be in addition to everything our Asian parents expect from us? Good lord, give us a break!
Look at how much there was to say about the 'good' Asian stereotypes…Well, I guess I shouldn't be complaining about them, considering the 'bad' ones are probably much more offensive.


OSLO, Norway – Two Norwegian electricians trapped for an entire day in a basket 85 meters hanging (280 feet) above a fjord successfully rappelled down to a boat waiting below, rescue workers said Tuesday.
The workers were stranded over the Nordfjord in western Norway on Monday after the basket they had been working in became stuck on the power cable due to an unknown technical failure.
An attempt early Tuesday to rescue them by helicopter failed because of windy weather, so rescue services called in a local group of alpinists to lead a new rescue operation.
Jan Gunnar Hole, who led it, told The Associated Press that he proposed dropping ropes to the men from a helicopter, then instructing them via mobile phone how to rappel down to one of two boats.
"This was the simplest solution," he said. "The men were cold, of course, but when you're climbing down from 85 meters there's a lot of adrenalin."
Given the success of the operation, he must have been right.
The fjord is located south of the city of Trondheim.

Our clinic is open from Monday to Friday during regular business hours. Different midwives will have different clinic hours and days, so you will need to work with our staff to find an appointment. Appointments can be made in person, or by phone. Your midwife will assist you in determining when, and by whom, you should be seen.
Midwives will come to your home in the immediate postpartum period, usually seeing you at day 1, day 3, and day 5 after the baby is born. Mothers and their babies will return to the clinic for 3 postpartum visits until the baby is 6 weeks old.
There are times when appointments will be cancelled on short notice, usually when a midwife has been called away to a birth. Every effort will be made to contact you beforehand, but we request your patience and understanding when this is not possible.


The taproom at La Dõna Cerveceria was bustling just a few weeks after a soft opening of the North Minneapolis brewery.
La Doña Cervecería brings soccer, salsa, and a 10,000 sq ft taproom to Harrison neighborhood.
Filled with colorful calavera murals and Spanish-speaking staff members, La Doña Cervecería stands out from the crowd of Twin Cities breweries.
For one thing, the brand new brewery is open seven days a week and late on weekends (1am). It also hosts dance nights and is home to both an art gallery and an boxed-turf outdoor soccer field.
Sergio Manancero, right, started the brewery and made his first important hire in head brewer, Dickie Lopez, who has brewing experience with three Twin Cities craft breweries.
"The first night we had a DJ here. There were people I've never seen in breweries before–Latin people, African American people, hipster bikers. You never see all those people in the same place," said owner Sergio Manancero.
Manancero, whose family is Uruguayan, began envisioning his beer brand turned brewery after he returned from the Marine Corps in 2013. He started with one Mexican-style lager (Doña Chela) while he was a full-time college student at the University of Minnesota. Business quickly boomed. "We had 60 accounts in eight weeks," he said.
After looking all over the Twin Cities for possible brewery locations, the La Doña team landed at 241 Fremont Ave. N. "We had a total blank canvas that we could do whatever we wanted in," said Manancero.
La Doña shares their building with a new, soon-to-be-open distillery, and Manancero says their landlord has talked about opening a food hall next door. He hopes La Doña will attract other restaurants and bars to the area, which he describes as a "kind of a dead zone" for those types of businesses currently.
More than anything, Manancero wants La Doña to be a community gathering place. "I'm happy to put a spotlight on this part of the community and be a place where the community can come hang out," he said. Though it officially opened on Oct. 20, the brewery has been quietly open for weeks, serving beers at the bar and hosting events. Irene Fernando, a Harrison neighborhood resident and Hennepin County Commissioner candidate for District 2, plans to host her election night watch party there.
Yoni Debesai, left, Bobby Pyne and Seun Adenusa clinked glasses in a toast as they enjoyed the beer and friendship on a recent Friday night.
"I want this to be a neighborhood bar for people who live in the neighborhood," said Manancero, who invites his patrons to bring their own dinner to the taproom while they enjoy their beers.
Making their patrons feel at home is core to the cervecería's brand. Its namesake, La Doña, is a nod to Hispanic feminine hospitality. "It gave it this matriarchy, the person who invites you into their home, gives you a cold beer; it's comforting," he said.
