Tornado Alley: Keeping Students Safe—Physically and Emotionally—During Storms
Scott Hein is principal of Lakeview Elementary School in Yukon, Oklahoma. And a storm chaser. What do those two passions have in common? More than you'd think, according to Hein.
"I'm here to take on any storm, whether it's a twister or a severe thunderstorm coming through Oklahoma or whether it's taking care of kids and all the issues they face," says Hein.
Hein is quick not to make light of his passion of chasing storms, though. Storms are a very serious threat to his school and community. Helping students learn how to stay as safe as possible during these storms—and overcome the destruction they can leave behind—is a unique challenge his school faces.
He's especially connected to his school because it was the school he interviewed in more than 20 years ago when he landed his first teaching job out of college. In fact, now, as the school's principal, that table sits in his office as a reminder of where he came from. It's sentimental to him, and it's not the only item of importance to him. He fills his office with many other items—though admittedly smaller than a piece of furniture—that also have meaning to him. On his first day as principal, for example, a young student gave him a handmade card that read "I'm ready to soar"—and that's what he encourages his students, teachers, school, and community to do every day.
How do I keep my students safe—physically and emotionally—during storms and tornadoes?
In what unique ways can help students get the most out of their education?
How can we make every student feel special?

Scott Hein is principal of Lakeview Elementary School in Yukon, Oklahoma. There he oversees students in fourth grade and fifth grade. Lakeview has seen many changes in the past couple of decades—and so has Hein. Starting as a teacher right out of college and transitioning to the principalship, Hein has called Lakeview Elementary his home for more than 20 years.
His passion for education carries over into an unlikely hobby—storm chasing, which Hein sees as a metaphor for education. He faces head on any storm, whether it's a tornado or an issue his students are working through.
In this video, Hein takes you on a virtual tour of his school to show a day in the life of a student at Lakeview Elementary School—from a morning assembly to the "A Beautiful Day" parties, and STEM classrooms. From Hein, you will learn ideas to:
Protect students during severe storms and tornadoes.
It all starts with preparation. Be aware of the effects of the storms and work to put in place the facilities—safe rooms—that can hold hundreds of students during weather threats. This investment comes from his district level, says Hein.
You can be as prepared as possible, practicing over and over again with students, but a bigger area of focus is the emotional impact. If there's a close call with a tornado, Hein says, "We don't just say, 'OK, we've got the all-clear. Go home.' " Faculty and staff at the school follow up with their students afterward, too. Some of his students have been in schools that have been hit by tornadoes before, and it's those students especially who need extra care because it's a trauma point for them.
Help students get the most out of their education.
Every morning, students at Lakeview Elementary School have a morning assembly. Every. Single. Morning. Lakeview Liftoff, they call it, gets the children up and moving with music and dancing, helping them to get out the wiggles and set them on a path where they're ready to learn.
An early adopter of the STEM program in their school district, the Lakeview STEM program has evolved to be such an effective program that it's been named an Apple Program of Excellence. Lakeview adds in STEM as a regular rotation for all students, along with art, music, and physical education. Students learn how to do group problem-solving and team-building concepts.
Make every student feel special.
The school features a program called "A Beautiful Day," which spreads the message to students that the day they were born is a beautiful day. Some students don't get birthday parties or have families who are able to bring in treats for their child to share with classmates. A committee finds community volunteers like district administrators and superintendents who come into the school, put on an "A Beautiful Day" t-shirts, and pass out pizza and cupcakes in honor of kids who are celebrating their birthdays.
Remember that what might be fun for one student might be a trauma trigger for another student. For example, bringing a local weather person in with a tornado machine might be cool to students who've never lived through a tornado, but it might trigger students who have survived a tornado.
Get students up and moving early to get them ready for a day of learning.
Every day at school is an opportunity to make every child feel like they're special and unique. Find ways to celebrate them like "A Beautiful Day" parties.

SHINING VALE: FIRST CLIP FOR THE HORROR COMEDY SERIES STARRING COURTENEY COX
Starzplay has released the first clip of the horror comedy series Shining Vale.
Which stars Courteney Cox, Greg Kinnear and Mira Sorvino . The debut in our territory is scheduled for next 6 March.
Pat and Terry Phelps (Courtney Cox and Greg Kinnear) invest their life savings to move from a cramped Brooklyn apartment to an old Victorian mansion in Shining Vale, Connecticut, in the ultimate attempt to save their marriage after a torrid affair. Pat with Frank, a young handyman who was repairing the sink while Terry was at work. To make matters worse for Terry, Frank never fixed the sink but still got paid. Patricia "Pat" Phelps is a rebellious ex-girlfriend who became famous for writing a novel about women's empowerment drenched in drugs and alcohol (also known as lady porn). Seventeen years later, Pat is sober and utterly dissatisfied. He has not yet written his second novel, she can't remember the last time she had sex with her husband and the teenage sons Gaynor (Gus Birney) and Jake (Dylan Gage) want nothing to do with her. Due to the move to a microscopic city, the two boys are angry and aloof, and Terry's efforts to keep the family together are rejected. Pat is losing what little control he had over his children, with Gaynor wanting to see her dead and Jake becoming a zombie due to his addiction to screens, while Terry is too focused on moving on to notice that his wife is losing her life. control over itself. Buying a two-hundred-year-old house that had been on the market for nearly three years and sold for more than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars less than the asking seemed like a good idea on paper. but Pat feels the Phelps aren't alone; especially when a woman appears outside the salon window.
The Phelps quickly discover why the real estate agents were so motivated to sell the house even below cost and why they had overlooked certain details including a triple homicide-suicide and a host of other atrocities that occurred in the house. But neither Terry nor the two teenagers seem to notice that something is wrong; only Pat can see things move and hear noises in the night. Convinced that she is depressed or possessed – it turns out the symptoms are exactly the same – she is also the only one who sees the spirit of the person who committed these murders: Rosemary, a 1950s housewife who maybe, or maybe not, is trying. to own Pat. Each has their own demons, but for Pat Phelps they could be real.
Shining Vale is produced byOther Shoe Productions' Jeff Astrof , Merman's Sharon Horgan and Clelia Mountford (Motherland, This Way Up), Kapital's Aaron Kaplan ( The Chi, The Neighborhood ) and Dana Honor ( A Million Little Things, The Unicorn ) Entertainment. Courteney Cox is also a producer. Jeff Astrof wrote the script for the pilot episode, based on a story by Horgan & Astrof. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television and Lionsgate Television in association with Other Shoe Productions, Merman and Kapital Entertainment.

This beautiful bowls club is in Albert Park in Warrnambool, Victoria. You'll find its fresh greens right off Cramer Street next to Warrnambool Football Club and Warrnambool College. The town is more than 250 kilometres west of Melbourne on the Great Southern Ocean. This bowls club is great for a large group of friends with the City Bistro. This modern eatery is casual and serves up heaps of pub food for a great price. The menu focuses on pub standards like fish and chips, parma and beef burgers.

You probably know them well: the brown or gray IN and OUT trays. There is even a good chance that they are on your desk right now. This is because, even though the world is becoming increasingly digital, a completely paperless office is still not here today.
The legal validity of electronic documents and of the advanced electronic signature can vary from region to region in Belgium; the differences are even greater at European and international level. For some electronic documents, such as invoices, there is clear legislation concerning storage and probative value; it is often somewhat more vague for other correspondence. No wonder, therefore, that organizations and governments continue to be hesitant about a paperless office. Legally speaking, document management is still at a very early stage and so the trays on your desk will remain full.
Yet all of us want to get rid of the towering filing cabinets, and a Document Management System that takes your organization's practical and legal needs into account offers a solution.
Realdolmen offers two solutions to meet different (legal) needs: RFlow and RProve. The basic functions are the same for both tools. You manage the workflows, tasks and responsibilities of users; documents are indexed so that you can easily retrieve them later on; both tools interface seamlessly with ERP or intranet, or in the case of RProve with both the licensed and the free versions of Alfresco Enterprise Content Management System.
Choosing between RFlow and RProve depends mainly on whether you are managing 'dead' or 'live' documents. A 'dead' document only needs to be archived and will never change. For example, think of invoices you receive, digital or otherwise.
RFlow is used mainly for digital archiving of electronic documents. The tool has a strong text-recognition function, automatically reads key data from documents and other data sources, and feeds your ERP or CRM database.
The major advantage of RFlow is the legal guarantee: every scanned document is allocated a unique number and so becomes unmodifiable. In the banking and insurance world, for example, such legal validity is extremely important for potential legal disputes.
RProve is mainly used for managing 'live' documents that you receive in paper format. Documents in which various users change or add something and so require version management. All your post is managed in a clear file with customized checklists and actions.
In RProve, you can also use an advanced electronic signature, which means that your live documents have the necessary legal validity.
Whether your flow of documents is now digital or on paper, management and overview are required. The right tool that matches your organization's core business helps you save time and archive space, improves the flow of internal information and helps your staff focus on the real business needs.
Rflow is an Enterprise Data Management solution that centralizes, organizes and processes all your data, and which allows you to find the data you need in no time at all.
RProve is an integrated electronic document, correspondence and case management solution. It's an extension to the Alfresco software package, the leading document management tool.


I was debating what should be my inaugural recipe and post for this blog of mine. Should it be my Arugula salad with baked stuffed figs and a homemade vinaigrette?!, should I share one of my mom's traditional Indian recipes?!, or my all time favorite recipes from two of my favorite cookbooks?! There will be plenty of time to share all of that, but this post will be dedicated to a discussion we had at home, with my son, about his college culinary life. Some of his friends from his high school varsity soccer team, who graduated, try to lure him to come to their college, by saying, you know when you are in college, the one thing you can't wait for is to come back home to your mom's home cooked meal, but here, the food is so good, that thought won't cross your mind. Another friend who graduated Facebooked him that the down side of his campus is the lack of Chipotle, but rumor has it it's coming next year. These boys know FOOD and as odd as it sounds, do think about it when thinking about their college life. Our son, now a senior, is on a mission to collect some recipes for his hotplate in his dorm room. Something simple, something to share, extremely filling and delicious. This is the first of his collection.
This recipe is a guideline you can adjust according to taste. We, for example, like a bit of a kick in our food but not everyone can handle it.
In a deep frying pan sweat garlic, onion and Jalapeno in a bit of oil on low to medium. Do not brown or burn garlic, it will turn bitter. Add tomatoes and cook for about ten minutes on medium, add tomato sauce, paprika, salt and fresh black pepper according to taste. Crack eggs and drop gently one by one into sauce, next to each other in the pan and cook on low/medium according to desired level of doneness. You are sort of poaching the eggs in the tomato sauce....traditionally the yellow of the eggs should be runny when serving. If more firm eggs are desired cover the pan with a lid. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves but not a must. Can break bread and eat directly from the pan as a communal meal, or can be served individually.
Can cube red bell pepper and sweat/fry it with garlic and sausage possibly too. We use merguez spicy Moroccan lamb sausage or turkey sausage, but any sausage will be fine.
If adding other vegetables, always, always cook with garlic,onion and oil as a first step to cook/soften them.
Improvise, be creative, use your imagination!!
I met Shulie in 1999, when our sons were in school together. We soon learned that we had a shared love of food, and we spend some lovely time cooking together, teaching each other about new foods.
Shulie introduced me to Bisteeya, a lovely casserole-type dish that I still salivate over to this day! Hopefully she'll be posting that recipe with accompanying video on this blog! In turn, I taught her how to roll sushi with sashimi rice and a variety of fillings.
I ADORE THIS!!! WANT SOME NOW!!! I just love you Shulie and have wanted to leave comments for some time now - YOU'RE AWESOME!!!
Thanks Debra!! I was dipping the baguette in the leftovers minutes ago as my electricity came back on:). It's so quick, delicious and satisfying meal on the run! Love you my friend, you do know that I hope:).
This has me drooling this morning! YUM! I'm definitely going to try this...reminds me of the Italian "eggs and sauce" we've enjoyed in my house since I was a kid.
Thanks Tina. Would love to get your mom's recipe if it's not a secretive heirloom recipe. I do hold back some for fear of separation anxiety and some are plainly extremely complex. All my mom's recipes. This Shakshuka is best with the freshest challa or baguette, tear the bread, dip and scoop. So satisfying so fresh:).
It's a family recipe indeed...I'll send along shortly (I have to dig it out). Mostly it's just the sauce that's the recipe...and then pour over a fried egg...it's heaven! I will definitely be trying your recipe for brunch SOON!
Shulie, I don't know how I did not discover your beautiful blog earlier! My daughter is a sophomore in college, and moved into her first apartment this past Fall. She loves to cook and I collect different, easy, ethnic recipes for her to try.
I will pass this on to her, with warmest thanks to you.
Yum! This reminds me so much of uova in purgatorio (Eggs in Purgatory). One of my favorite ways of enjoying eggs.
Shulie I love looking back at your first post! Shakshuka was a great choice since it's so timeless.
I have not tried eating Shakshuka before and would love to eat this using fresh bread to scoops the mixture of eggs and yummy gravy.


Please note that the iScope Project has NOT been under active development since mid 2005. We can provide you with source code and other help.
The iScope—"internet microscope"—was a complete system for Internet microscopy. This system was located at the University of Tennessee in Memphis from 1999 to 2005. Three Zeiss Universal microscopes provided online, realtime access to the slides which form the Mouse Brain Library. This system worked reasonably well, but is was difficult to maintain the microscope hardware and simultaneously develop web services software for three operating systems. By 2005 technology to digitize massive slide collections using high speed scanners had advanced to the point that it made more sense to perform all analysis using digitized image repositories, rather than liver image capture. For this reason, we stopped active development of the iScope in 2005 and have concentrated on improving the base-level resolution of the MBL collection.
iScope is being replaced by a massive MBL Pivot Collection: We are acquiring much higher resolution images of a majority of slides in the MBL using an Aperio scanner at a resolution of approximately 1 micron/pixel. These images can be viewed using our experimental (June 2010) MBL Pivot web site.
Control a research-grade light microscope: By downloading free control software (available for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux), it was possible from about 2002 to 2005 to control microscopes in real time from your desktop computer and explore a wealth of mouse brain tissue.
On-Demand Imaging: Through the iScope system, users were able to acquire high-resolution, full-color images of our tissue collection for use in papers and educational materials.
Remote Stereology: Researchers were able to used free stereology software for quantitative analysis of brains from a large collection of genetically defined mice. The iScope system made it possible to perform cell counting and area measurements on our tissue from anywhere in the world.
How can I get my own iScope?
Although the iScope client software is free for noncommercial use, the server software package requires licensing. If you are interested in creating an iScope system to serve your own slide collection, we can help you select a suitable hardware configuration and provide a license for the iScope server software. Please contact Dr. Rob Williams for more information.
How can I use the iScope?
Create a new login and password, and download the iScope software appropriate for your computer. Our iScope system is freely available for public use, but you must provide a valid email address.
Once you have a login and password, you may download the iScope software here. Versions are available for Mac OS X, UNIX / Linux, and Windows.
View our visual tutorial for help using the iScope software.

Примечания


The next step is to test fit the card. I used an old riser card to do this. Do not plug this into a motherboard that is connected to a power supply, or you may short out the standby voltages and fry your system. Use an old motherboard, or a riser card like this that you do not care about.
The circuit card has one VIA for the +12 Volt connection to the PCI slot. This VIA has to be marked before etching to line up the traces on both sides of the board.


You know those awesome mom moments when your child gets hurt... yeah... that happened. Hart says, "boys will be boys", which I know is true.
Poor thing was playing with the neighbor and I was talking to the neighbor mom. Cai was on his trike and the next thing I knew I heard Cai screaming. The older boy thought it would be an awesome idea to push Cai down the steep driveway on the bike and it, of course, fell over and he scraped his face, arms and legs all up! Talk about screaming his head off! This boy hates pain!
But no worries... he is fine now and already healed up! Crazy boy!


Heavyweights Mark Hunt and Justin Willis collided on the main card of tonight's UFC Fight Night 142 event in Adelaide, Australia.
Mark Hunt entered tonight's contest looking to rebound, this after suffering back-to-back setbacks to opponents Curtis Blaydes and Alexey Oleynik in his most recent fights. Prior to that, "The Super Samoan" had scored a TKO victory over recent division title challenger Derrick Lewis.
Meanwhile, Justin Willis entered tonight's contest sporting an overall record of 7-1. "Big Pretty" had picked up a unanimous decision victory over Chase Sherman at UFC Fight Night 128 in his most recent appearance.
Mark Hunt looked good in the fights opening five minutes, landing some hard low kicks and nice punches.
However, Justin Willis would turn the tide in round two, showcasing a lightning quick left jab that left Hunt frustrated.
Things did not get any better for Mark Hunt in round three, as Willis continued to pepper him with jabs.
In what serves as the final fight of his UFC career, Mark Hunt ultimately suffered a unanimous decision loss (29-28 x3) to Justin Willis at UFC Adelaide.
Check out how the pros reacted below.
A legend. A man who has inspired and lead the Anzac takeover and held the torch for years.

Brief on Appeal
22 A.D.3d 348, 802 N.Y.S.2d 156,
Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department, New York.
In re EUGENE L. and Others, Children Under the Age of Eighteen Years, etc., Virginia L., Respondent-Appellant, Cardinal McCloskey Services, Petitioner-Respondent.
Oct. 18, 2005.
Nancy Botwinik, New York, for appellant.
David H. Berman, Mamaroneck, for respondent.
Tamara A. Steckler, The Legal Aid Society, New York (Richard M. Hartzman of counsel), Law Guardian.
Orders of disposition, Family Court, New York County (Susan Larabee, J.), entered on or about April 13, 2004, which, upon a fact-finding determination of permanent neglect, terminated respondent's parental rights to the subject children and committed their custody and guardianship to petitioner agency and the Commissioner of Social Services for the purpose of adoption, unanimously modified, on the facts, to vacate the order that terminated respondent's parental rights to the child Eugene and freed him for adoption, and the matter remanded to Family Court for a new dispositional hearing regarding the best interests of Eugene, and otherwise affirmed, without costs.
The finding of permanent neglect is supported by clear and convincing evidence of respondent's failure to cooperate with the agency's diligent efforts to assist her in regularly visiting the children and in undertaking the therapy and acquiring the parenting skills necessary to address the children's special needs (see Matter of Star Leslie W., 63 N.Y.2d 136, 142-143, 481 N.Y.S.2d 26, 470 N.E.2d 824 [1984] ). Although a preponderance of the evidence at the dispositional hearing shows that the children's adoption by their respective foster families is in their best interests (see id. at 147-148, 481 N.Y.S.2d 26, 470 N.E.2d 824), we remand for a new dispositional hearing with respect to Eugene's best interests since petitioner and the Law Guardian have advised that Eugene has moved to a therapeutic foster home that is not a pre-adoptive home and has expressed a desire to be
with his biological family (see Matter of Michael B., 80 N.Y.2d 299, 318, 590 N.Y.S.2d 60, 604 N.E.2d 122 [1992]; Matter of Marc David D., 20 A.D.3d 565, 799 N.Y.S.2d 552 [2005] ). Respondent's claim that the agency's case records were improperly admitted into evidence is unpreserved, and her other claims concerning evidentiary rulings are unavailing.

Cosmonauts tackle equipment installation outside space station
Irene Klotz
CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (Reuters) - A pair of Russian cosmonauts floated outside the International Space Station on Friday in the first of up to eight spacewalks scheduled for this year to install experiments and prepare the orbital outpost for a new module, officials said.
Flight engineers Pavel Vinogradov, 59, a veteran of six previous spacewalks, and Roman Romanenko, 41, a second-generation cosmonaut on his debut spacewalk, floated outside the station's airlock at 10:03 a.m. EDT/1403 GMT as the station soared 262 miles (422 km) over the southern Pacific Ocean.
The primary purpose of the planned six-hour excursion is to set up an experiment that monitors plasma waves in Earth's ionosphere, the outer layer of the planet's atmosphere that extends to about 370 miles (600 km) into space.
Instruments on two boxes attached to handrails on the forward portion of the station's Zvezda module also will measure low-frequency electromagnetic radiation, which, among other triggers, has been tied to earthquakes.
Vinogradov and Romanenko then moved to the aft end of the Zvezda module to replace a faulty laser retroreflector that is part of an automated docking system used by the European Space Agency's cargo transports. The next ship is due to launch in June.
Before heading back into the station, the cosmonauts are expected to retrieve another experiment designed to study how microbes affect spacecraft structures and whether microbes are affected at all by solar activity.
While his crewmates worked outside, station commander Chris Hadfield, a Canadian astronaut, had the less glamorous task of replacing a pump separator in one of the station's toilets.
"It malfunctioned a couple of days ago, but is now is being reactivated for use by the crew in (the) U.S. segment," of the station," NASA mission commentator Rob Navias said during a televised broadcast of the spacewalk.
Two more spacewalks by Russian cosmonauts are scheduled for June to prepare for the arrival of a new Russian laboratory and docking module that is to be launched in December.
The station, which is staffed by rotating crews of six astronauts and cosmonauts, is a $100 billion research outpost owned by the United States and Russia in partnership with Europe, Japan and Canada. (Editing by Jane Sutton and Eric Walsh)

Most of the people prefer coconut oil due to its various properties and furthermore health benefits. Coconut oil has lauric acid that helps to lower inflammation and wipe out bacteria. Oil pulling is done by putting a tablespoon of oil which might be olive oil, sesame oil or coconut oil and swish it for about 20 minutes. While spitting, the oil should be thin white foam. The clear or yellow oil shows that it is not done enough. After the oil is spit, it should be rinsed well.
No one could imagine their life without flossing or brushing the teeth regularly. Tooth brushing has become the part of life. Until 1930s, nylon toothbrushes had not become the part of Americans.

On Air 12:30 - Finest Homes
Next 13:00 - Guiding You Home
Be inspired by Australia's best beach houses and the lifestyles they create.
The power and beauty of the rugged coast and the wonder of our magnificent beaches and harbors inspires some of our greatest homes. From the our earliest childhood memories of the beach we dream of living in a true Sandcastle . This show takes the audience inside the most iconic beachside creations in the world.
Today's leading architects, tradesmen and owners tell us how their designs and decisions make childhood dreams come true.
Episode 1. Holman House
Perched over the cliffs the Holman is an iconic architectural centrefold, having graced the covers of dozens of international magazines. Designed by Neil Durbach and Camilla Block the house was born out of a long and experimental design process. The site plunges 70m over a cliff to the ocean and even after the clients had signed off on the design Neil had doubts it would work. The design was far more powerful than anyone imagined. As the house was being completed the architect kept refining some of its elements. It was a case of the architect as artist putting the final touches to a masterpiece as it was unfolding.
Taking the house from exceptional to ground breaking! Like a great piece of sculpture the Holman house cannot be easily described although countless articles have tried. Seeing is the only true way to do it justice, our cameras have provided an exclusive look at this masterpiece.
Episode 2. Trial Bay House
The Australian Institute of Architects voted this house the best in the country by awarding it the 2010 Robin Boyd prize . It's the first time a Tasmanian house has received such an honour, and surprisingly the design is effectively an alteration and addition not a new residence. Located an hour west of Hobart it's well hidden. From an elevated position every window and door along its southern elevation commands a water view across to Bruny Island. Owned by a noted film and television director whose brief to local Hobart firm HBV (Heffernan Button Voss) was to modify a series of barn like structures and create extra living area. The response was to rearrange the floor plan but ignore current trends of open plan living. This episode is a master class in how to subtly resurrect an old house into something new. The masterstroke is the creation of a separate living room that looks like a camera; a wonderful space for a visually literate client. Within this concrete lens, views are framed for cinematic effect. On visiting its clear that the house's greatest quality is its ability to 'slow you down'. Here time of day matters little. The hours are judged by the length of shadows, the seasons by the angle of the sun.
Episode 3. Tree House
Along the Great Ocean Road about 20mins south of Lorne, you'll come to Separation Creek. Perched on the headland facing Bass Straight is one of the countries ultimate beach houses. The house has a very small footprint and with its green façade it all but disappears into the hillside. Built over 3 levels, the top level has an open kitchen, living and breakout room. The midlevel contains the master bedroom and en suite. The lower level has two more bedrooms, a bathroom and laundry. One of the smallest houses in the series, the Tree House takes its lead from the iconic 1950's beach shack. It's a simple house where sandy feet are welcome. Although modest in scale, its large cantilevered balcony hints at clever engineering that also bridges the gap between humble beach shack and modern beach house.
Episode 4. Beached House
Is it an ancient ruin, some unique rock formation, maybe something from outer space? On first approach the Beached House is hard to comprehend, let alone describe. This unusual house sits isolated in an open landscape and makes no apology for touching the earth heavily! Rationalising its external geometry is difficult. All you need to know is that the angles and soaring roof planes form exciting and comfortable internal spaces. Designed for a Melbourne couple and their extended family the plan is surprisingly simple. Architect Julian Kosloff guided us around the property. He's a down-to-earth practitioner who, along with his partners, has combined drama with practicality and celebrates architecture as a series of spaces to be unravelled. As Julian explains the beach house experience starts the minute you get in the car and escape from the city. Once you arrive at the destination the experience intensifies as you embrace the architecture, moving through the front door and finally reaching the view. These sequences are part of the journey, the combined goal is to get the participants to unwind and move to another level.
Episode 5. Arm End
This little house has a big story to tell. Designed by a local architect for an international rock star who with his wife has literally gone to the opposite end of the world to get away from it all. Brian Ritchie is the ex bass guitarist from the Violent Femmes, how he ended up in Tasmania, living in his own private musical sanctuary is an extraordinary tale. The architect Stuart Tanner recalls the time he first saw Brian and his band touring Hobart in the early 90's not knowing that one day their paths cross again and result in a cross pollination of music and architecture an unlikely combination that led to this award winning home. Built up against the tress on the shores of the Derwent, the question of why the house doesn't take full advantage of the views is puzzling, the reason, Brian places more emphasis on 'hearing' the view rather then seeing it. This is just one of many unique examples of what can happen when music and art collide. During filming Pete and Brian jammed to 'Blister in the sun', the song that Brian and the Femmes are perhaps best known for, it was one of many unscripted moments.
Episode 6. Solis
This Queensland award winner is set in its stunning natural surroundings on Hamilton Island. The residence is sculpted from concrete, stone, block work and glass resulting in a sequence of dramatic volumes incorporating airy living spaces and private sheltered outdoor zones. Terraces are fluid extensions of internal spaces capturing cooling breezes. Swimming pools, reflection ponds and strategically positioned trickling waterfalls soothe both indoors and outdoors. The house is also built to withstand the destructive forces of tropical cyclones. The client had asked for low maintenance materials – so concrete became the primary material. The ready-made finish eliminates the need for render or paint, as well as lending the project an instant patina. Finishes such as polished concrete, unfilled honed travertine tiles and textured internal renders were selected for their durability and tactile qualities; the irresistible urge is to experience the house bare-feet whilst enjoying the touch of the smooth, cool stone.
Episode 7. White Rock House
Adjacent to one of the most popular Northern Beaches of Sydney, this house is ready for sandy feet and wet towels. Designed for a surfing family whose love of the coast and sharing good times is well served in this open Japanese inspired design. Plywood timbers give a casual feel, offset by the sophistication of billiard table smooth concrete floors. The decision to put the children's bedrooms downstairs allows for a kitchen, dinning, living room, roof garden and plunge pool and master bedroom on the upper level all with direct access to the sun and view. With 3 older children there are plenty of private sitting areas and breakaway spaces. This house will appeal to anyone who understands the needs of mixing active children with comfortable yet stylised architectural design, which is crafted from robust and durable materials. The level of detail from the architect with her documentation of this house meant that there were no surprises during costing and construction. There are some wonderful lessons to be learnt in this episode, none more so than the fact that great results rely on good communication between client and architect and a certain level of trust.
Episode 8. Paradise Drive
St Andrews beach on the Mornington peninsula is home to the richest vein of seaside architecture in the country. This isolated strip has produced many state and national award winners. The latest creation by architect Steve Hatzellis sits well in such esteemed company. Clad in copper, its dramatic cantilevering geometry almost knocks you over on approach. Designed for a young family, the house cleverly wraps around itself, providing shelter to a courtyard. Internally the house runs in a spiral that links levels as well as outdoor spaces. The most impressive and engaging design idea was the use of single point perspective lines. A technique used by painters to make objects recede or standout on a canvass. Here the architect has employed this method to create an optical illusion, making the building appear bigger than it actually is. Although this house has many athletic feats of architecture and engineering, it's also full of clever storage tips for a growing family. In particular the way the kitchen can easily be turned into an extension of the living room by simply sliding a few doors. It's a robust yet beautiful home that is sure to create discussion on the power and importance of architecture.
Episode 9. Freshwater
When Duke Kahanamoku paddled out and caught a wave at Freshwater beach nearly 100 years ago he started a surfing movement that has shaped our national identity. It's still a pleasure to surf at this beach but it's a privilege to live here and architects Ian Brewster and Larry Melocco have designed a classic example of beach architecture that does justice to this iconic place. The house sits on a small site that has a dramatic outlook over the beach and ocean towards North Head. The building is designed to represent a weathered timber crate, jetsam tossed up on a rocky headland that provides a cave-like shelter below a raised viewing platform. Its architecture refers to the rough shacks constructed on the rocks at the base of nearby headland cliffs. Protected and secluded spaces are created by the use of highly adjustable enclosing walls and screens. An internal courtyard surrounded by concrete walls provides separation from the proximity of surrounding homes. An elevated living plane sits on steel pilotis to provide a wide view of the beach and ocean headland. The building uses a palette of concrete, hardwood, glass and copper left in their raw state. The interior embodies a feeling of ease by layering complex finishes over raw materials to create a relaxed family home.
Episode 10. Grandad's Castle
The more you look at this home the more you love it. Designed by Rachel Neeson and the late Nick Murcutt, it is an exceptional example of how architecture can trigger memories and capture time. Set in the Sydney suburb of Castlecrag, the client had grown up in the original home built by his grandfather. The architect's approach to the renovation was a masterstroke: Preserve the memory of the old house in the new. The end result claimed the 2011 Robin Boyd award for residential architecture. "It was like working with a ruin," Nick said at the time. But through sensitive and creative design they kept the memory of the old house alive. The new house also slightly reoriented itself to use the sun's angles. The principle of building in sympathy with the bush was also a driving force. Inner beauty is its real strength with the use of concrete, timber and stone to create a sense of refuge.
Episode 11. South Coast House
This house is defined by the landscape that surrounds it. Beautifully designed and architecturally stunning, it follows the contours of the hilltop where it sits, to take advantage of the magnificent views of the rugged south coast and draw in the sun from all angles throughout the year. The house is split into three sections. A central section, with the main entry that leads directly to a sand-filled courtyard and a view through to the ocean. Branching off from the courtyard one wing has a large open area with the lounge, dinning and kitchen and a sheltered deck and plunge pool. The other wing has 3 bedrooms and en suites as well as a large teenage 'chill' room. The architect, Fergus Scott has referenced the natural materials found in the landscape around the site as part of the palette in designing the house. The controlled rusting of the metal sheeting that clads the house is drawn from the look of the rocks and cliffs found locally. The rich dark painted exterior and interior walls are reflected in the dark colours of the mountains and the interior of the large granite boulders. This is a very special house, beautifully positioned in a spectacular part of the Australian coast.
Episode 12. Compilation Edition
A comprehensive review of all the beach houses featured on Sandcastles. We go back over the last 11 episodes and highlight the amazing stories and locations we found while looking for that most iconic of dwellings, the Australian beach house. Whether set in a hidden bay or on a tropical island every house is unique with an owner, architect and builder all imparting their style, ability and desire on a house that's built to bring an ideal lifestyle and location together.

This insane crash involving Anthony Davidson and his Toyota TS030 Hybrid has recently occurred at the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. Davidson was trying to lap the AF Corse Ferrari driven by Piergiuseppe Peranzzini, however the Italian obviously did not see him and took out the back end. This sent the Toyota sideways where it eventually caught some wind underneath to send it flying through the air. Both cars crashed into the barrier and Peranzzini was able to walk out after his Ferrari rolled over. Anthony Davidson climbed out of his Toyota, but laid down shortly after and was taken to the medical center. Doctors confirm that he is conscious, but looks to be suffering from shock and back pain.

Dental Implant Systems Deliver Easy, Solid Results at Lower Costs
Stan Goff
Dental Products Report, Dental Products Report May 2022, Volume 56, Issue 5
Ditron Dental USA makes placements easier for this California clinician and more affordable for his patients.
Having placed dental implants for more than 3 decades and lectured internationally on the topic, Robert D. Rutner, DDS, DICOI, has used several implant systems over the years. Some have improved dramatically and others work better for certain cases.
Almost 3 years ago he was approached by Ditron Dental USA's Michael Stevens, the CEO, about trying out the company's implant systems. He also confided in a trusted colleague who had great things to say about the systems, which cost less than most of the brand-name implants already available in the United States, are easy to learn, and can reduce the number of accessories needed.
"One of the things I've been a proponent of is trying to help lower the cost of certain procedures, but with implants it's tough because [it] can be $500 to buy the implants and then you also have to have all the products [for the system]," says Dr Rutner, CEO of The Dental Implant Pro coaching team, who also has a general practice in Lake Tahoe, California, focusing on surgery and implants. "So, when Mike Stevens approached me about looking at the implants, there were a couple of things that I really liked about it. No. 1 is the aggressive thread design. The other nice thing is that unlike so many cases in the dental world, in implants, for example, companies have 3 different platforms at a minimum."
With Ditron Dental's flagship ULT™ Ultimate Precision Implant System and the MPI™ Molecular Precision Implant System, both of which feature design innovations in addition to ultraprecise manufacturing, clinicians like Dr Rutner work with just a single platform.
ULT™ Ultimate Precision Implant
The ULT Precision Implant System is a third-generation internal hex design, incorporating several exclusive features such as the MolecuLock™ biomechanical implant-seal, and the patented Reverse Concave Neck (RCN) to preserve the soft tissue and crestal bone. The RCN increases the implant contact surface area with the bone and preserves a greater proportion of bone and periosteum. The Ultimate™ microgrooves exercise appropriate biomechanical stimulation of cortical bone, stimulate tropism, and enhance the speed and quality of osseointegration.

"Ultimate has 1 platform, so it's just way less stuff and way easier to control your parts," he says. "It just seemed like something to try, and I have been quite pleased.
"I have other implants and if you can find a good use for it, then I'll use it up," he says, "but then after that, I'm just going to use the Ultimate [primarily] but I also like the MPI. I use them both."
Today most implant systems feature good, clean pieces of titanium that are properly sandblasted or have some coating. If the clinician has at least some skill they all integrate, whether you're buying an implant for a couple hundred dollars or an Ultimate implant for much less, he explains.
"They all integrate and the patients don't know the difference," Dr Rutner adds. "From the standpoint of the doctor, Ditron is a pretty easy system. For a doctor who has placed implants previously, you can place 2 or 3 with this system and it will be pretty easy for them after that."
Dr Rutner uses Versah densifying burs when he needs to expand skinny spots for placing implants and says this method works perfectly with the Ditron systems. "You can expand the spot and still place these implants whereas some of the other types of implants, the group patterns don't set up for it very well," he adds. "But this one's very universal between these 2 implants and you can place them anywhere."
Ditron also makes an OPI (one-piece implant) that is popular in Europe, but Dr Rutner says all his needs are met with Ultimate and MPI implants. "It really is a great system. You know, if that was the only system ever available, I could put this one anywhere all the time," he says. "There's so much that's involved with this, but, anytime you can get a nice snug initial stability without too much pressure on that cortical plate, you'll be good."
Because of the easy techniques, lower costs, and solid results, Dr Rutner suggests dentists consider these implants.
"I'm thrilled with these implants and for the kids starting now, these are the easiest ones to place. There's tons of us that will also help train the young doctor who really wants to learn how to place them. It's the simplest system because it's a hex and everybody has always placed hexes," he says.
Benefits to general practitioners (GPs) include the reasonable price and the fact that every lab can restore the implants, whether in analog or digital fashion. For specialists placing Ditron implants, you will reduce the cost that your GPs must pay to have it restored. Ditron Dental offers a variety of surgical kits to make placing implants easy and reliable.

College debt got you down? You're not alone.
With skyrocketing tuition costs, it's not surprising that more than forty million students nationwide have graduated with debt. CNN reported that combined student debt has climbed to a record high of $1.2 trillion. This is an 84 percent jump since the recession began in 2008. Without a proactive plan to pay back the money, the impact can derail or delay all sorts of life plans—marriage, home buying, graduate degrees, and more.
I know. I was one of those students. When I graduated, I owed about $30 thousand—nearly twice my first salary as a political press secretary making $18 thousand a year. I was able to pay my bills and student loan but not much else. I realized that in order to make any kind of dent in the debt, I needed to do more.
With careful planning and self-discipline, I retired my college debt within ten years of graduating. Here's how I did it.
01. Get a second job.
This is perhaps the most significant but hardest step in debt reduction. You're already working full time; the thought of working even more hours seems nearly impossible. But you have to find a way to make as much money as possible. I had waitressed during college. It was fast, easy money, so I thought, why not? At the General Assembly, we often worked from 8 a.m. until midnight a few nights a week. That meant I still had four nights a week, Thursday through Sunday, to commit to a restaurant job. Not only were those the busier nights (meaning better tips), but they didn't interfere with my full-time job.
02. Reduce your housing expenses.
If possible, live at home with your parents or family. Otherwise, definitely get a roommate. Family wasn't an option for me, and as much as I wanted my own place after college, I realized it wasn't practical. So I shared a house with another friend. For ten years following college, before I got married at age 33, I never had my own place. I lived with up to six people at one time. Twice I lived in people's unfurnished basements (rent-free). Reducing my rent was one of the smartest things I could have done to save money and pay off my debt. Yes, it was a pain at times. One of my friend's dogs used to do his business in the basement—near my bed! But it was an effective means to an end.
This may seem impossible for some, but my food budget was literally $35 per week. That included all groceries and eating out. I brown-bagged just about every day for lunch. I ate a lot of soup and sandwiches, too. Because I worked at a restaurant, I got to eat free meals. I could also take home food "mistakes." I didn't have cable, and I really limited what I spent on clothes. The semester before graduating college, I worked on Capitol Hill and had to wear a suit every day. My work wardrobe was well-stocked from that, so I was lucky.
04. Don't incur any more debt.
I longed to get my graduate degree in public policy, but I was determined not to borrow any more money. My employer offered a 75 percent tuition reimbursement for its employees. While that was an exceptional perk in the mid-nineties, it is much more common today. I was able to cover my books and the 25 percent of tuition cost from my current employment, so I didn't incur any other debt. But I also had the temptation of credit cards. As much as I wanted to use them to eat out or buy clothes (which I did on a rare occasion), as a rule, I only kept them for emergencies.
05. Get out of the house.
OK, this may sound bad. But as a single broke girl, I still wanted to socialize. My solution was dating a lot. As an extrovert, I had no trouble getting dates. But I also joined many clubs, so I met a lot of people that way—and it didn't cost a thing. Filling your time with projects and people you are passionate about will fulfill you in more ways than a well-fed wallet could. There are plenty of free and fun activities that you can do with your friends or dates.
06. About that car . . .
No, not the car, you say. Yes, the car. Mine was a 1972 VW Super Beetle, with little to no heat. It ran. It had great gas mileage. It got me from point A to point B. I also only carried Public Liability and Public Damage (PLPD) insurance. There was no need for me to carry collision insurance. I understood that if I crashed my car, it had better be someone else's mistake, or I would be out of a car. Depending on where you live, public transportation or carpool options might mean you don't even need a car. Consider going without one. I actually did this for an extended period of time when I lived in Washington, D.C.
07. Create a budget, and stick to it.
While I state this in a variety of ways above, it's the heart of getting out of debt. Dave Ramsey, the well-known debt reduction guru, will tell you the same. You simply can't make much progress in retiring debt without a budget.
Creating and sticking to a budget is quite a sobering experience. One thing Ramsey says, which was true for me, is that a budget is more freeing than it is restrictive. When you have a realistic picture of your situation, it helps you make wiser decisions. Otherwise, you could find yourself spending aimlessly, hoping it will all work out.
Not sure where to begin? Ramsey's website has several tools on how to create a budget. I did this on my own using common sense, but the free downloadable sheets are helpful if you are just getting started.
08. Take advantage of new resources.
There are a couple resources today that were not available when I was getting out of debt. One is the federal debt forgiveness program. The payouts won't be available until 2017, but it is at least worth looking into to determine if you qualify. It will not forgive any personal loans that you took out to pay for school expenses. If you qualify, though, it does forgive federal-guaranteed student loans. Also, as I mentioned earlier, many employers offer tuition reimbursement as a benefit. Like myself, you could go on to get your graduate degree without adding to your debt load.
While it might not seem like it now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Looking back, I was pretty dedicated to these strategies, and it was completely worth it when I paid off my loans five years earlier than planned. Paying off debt is all about your choices, self-control, and perseverance. And by actually following through on this plan, I felt really accomplished. So make a plan, and buckle up! It'll be a long ride but one that is, in my opinion, completely worth it.

Not really specifically a redistribution concept, but categorised by Chris Bryant as redistribution so what the hell.
RIP: Passive interfaces do not send routing updates, but will accept them. RIP adjacencies aren't affected by passive interfaces since RIP doesn't have adjacencies in the first place. A RIP passive interface will not send routing updates, but it will accept them.
EIGRP: Hellos aren't sent, so no adjacency can be formed via a passive interface. If an adjacency exists on an interface that is then made passive, the adjacency is dropped. A subnet running a passive interface can be advertised.
EIGRP passive interfaces do not send Hellos, therefore the neighbour relationship on this specific interface is torn down.
EIGRP passive interfaces do not send Hellos, but the subnet running on that passive interface can still be advertised via the network command.
OSPF: Passive interfaces do not send OSPF Hellos, so again no adjacency can be formed, and existing adjacencies are lost on interfaces that are then configured as passive. Additionally, the subnet running on the passive interface will be advertised as a stub network.
Just as with EIGRP, the adjacency through the now passive interface is lost, but the subnet is still advertised via the network command.
You can set all interfaces on a router as passive for a given protocol with the passive-interface default command.

CP: Lion in Winter
The Lion in Winter
Appreciating soon-to-be USTA Southwest Hall of Famer Jack Kennedy
The woman on the other end of the telephone was screaming so loudly I was sure a ruptured eardrum was in my future.
"I'm going to sue you! I'm going to sue you!" she shrieked over and over. "I'm going to sue you and I'm going to sue your newspaper."
I had written that morning in the Albuquerque Journal a column discussing why Roger
Federer cried after losing a Grand Slam final. "Torrent of Tears Embarrassing," the headline above the column read.
Fans of Federer will recall that following a five-set loss to rival Rafael Nadal in the 2009 Australian Open final, Fed shed tears. Buckets of them, it seemed. He sobbed so much at the awards ceremony that Nadal felt led to comfort him.
There's no weeping in tennis was the point of my 800-word essay. No big deal, or so I thought.
To this caller, in her 70s, I estimated, I had committed blasphemy. She worshiped Federer, it was clear, and to see his good name besmirched in print caused her to go into a crazed, howling rage.
"It's a column," I explained as she quieted for a millisecond "It's only my opinion."
"It's wrong, wrong, wrong," she shouted. "And who is this Jack Kennedy anyway?"
In writing the column I had called up Kennedy to get his thoughts on Federer's crying jag.
"It was hard for me to watch," Kennedy admitted. He liked Federer—as did I—but the blubbering bothered him.
"Did you ever cry after a tennis match?" I asked.
"Good grief no," Kennedy said. "Oh, I was a hell of a nicer guy when I won than when I lost. But I never cried."
John Lloyd Kennedy's days on a tennis court spanned the early 1950s through the early 1970s. To the woman reader on the phone, I started to say, "Jack Kennedy was a standout player in New Mexico back …"
"Never heard of him," she yelled, drowning out my words. "What did he ever win?"
The making of a legend
I never saw Jack Kennedy play tennis. He had stopped competing four years before I went to work writing about fun and games for the Albuquerque Journal, in 1977. In the years that followed, our paths did not cross, oddly enough. Oh, I heard a lot about Kennedy, a longtime dentist in the city who many said was once the best player in the Southwest.
A 6-5, long-armed guy in Clark Kent glasses, people said. An aircraft-carrier haircut and a bombs-away lefty service. Came to the net and never left. Couldn't pass him, couldn't lob him.
Kennedy, I saw, was inordinately bright. He wrote a fine tribute to the Tennis Club of Albuquerque on its 40th anniversary, which was published in the Journal. He wrote another piece in which he astutely broke down Nadal's game and why Nadal would always have an edge over Federer.
I finally met Kennedy in 2008, at the Albuquerque Marriott, near I-40. We both had come there for a USTA Southwest Section meeting. I didn't know it, but Kennedy was on hand to salute coach Dick Johnson, who was being inducted into the Section's Hall of Fame.
When a fellow of about 70 hobbled toward to the lectern, my jaw dropped. I thought it was Howard Hughes, I swear. This person wore his long, gray hair in a thick ponytail. Were his fingernails long, too? Was the Spruce Goose parked at the Sunport? I was halfway certain the nutty, legendary billionaire had somehow come back to life.
Turns out Kennedy was a legend himself. I assumed he was already in the Hall of Fame, but for some unknown reason he was not. He will go into the Hall this month, and it's about time.
Kennedy was the state's best junior and the University of New Mexico's first all-American in that era of bludgeon-like wood rackets. As an adult player, he traveled the country on the amateur circuit, whupping up on folks through his 30s and into his 40s, particularly in doubles. Then he dislocated his left shoulder during a skiing spill at Taos. He went right back to skiing again. After another bad fall, the shoulder said no mas.
Meanwhile, his knees went south as well. Twenty-some years on New Mexico hardcourts will do that.
Goodbye, shotgun serve. So long, paint-peeling overheads. At 43, he was done.
Left behind were stories, Jack Kennedy stories. How as a youngster he beat all adults at the Tennis Club of Albuquerque save for Paul Butt, the progenitor of the sport in Albuquerque. How his friends told him tennis was wussy sport and he should dump it—until he showed them his trophies. How during college he had sobered up Whitney Reed right before the NCAA singles finals. Reed thanked him and went on to become No. 1 in the U.S. How during his time in the Air Force he wagered with Bobby Riggs and played mixed dubs against Billie Jean King and partner, all in the space of a month. (pictured below with Riggs - second from left - Kennedy is center)
Figuring things out
So here he is now, not looking a day over 74 and mellow as a Beaujolais. Sure, he's got a gimp, but his brain hums. He is sitting the study of his home in Albuquerque's Northeast Heights, a quarter-mile from the TCA. Art, philosophy, psychology and literature books fill the study's shelves, as do photos—of Susan, his wife of 52 years, of their three grown children and their grandkids. Here and there are plenty of loving cups, those big silver jugs with two handles. Whatever happened to loving cups, anyway?
If you ask Jack Kennedy anything, even what he had for lunch two days ago, he will likely answer this way: Well, what happened was . . .
"Why don't they give out loving cups anymore?"
"Well, what happened was . . . how the hell should I know?"
"How did you come to pick up a tennis racket?"
"Well, what happened was, I used to play pickup football games at Bataan Park. Then I dislocated my elbow and broke my collarbone. So my mother said I needed a new sport. I got a Montgomery Ward racket and she hit balls to me at Wellesley Park."
He loved to compete—at anything. It was if he had something to prove. And maybe he did. At 12 he entered a city-wide yo-yo contest at Robinson Park. "Well, what happened was, I was left-handed and I discovered that gave me an advantage keeping the string taut."
For winning that contest he was awarded a new Schwinn bike, one of those big Roadmaster jobs. Kennedy was pedaling the prize back to his house when some older kids tried to take the bike away from him. Kennedy didn't let them. What happened was, he beat them up.
Joe Ferguson, a builder of tennis courts and tennis players in Albuquerque, happened to spot Kennedy at 14 hitting balls. Kid, Ferguson said, you can play. Ferguson urged him to enter the Southwestern Boys Doubles, where he was paired with Paul Palmer of Phoenix. Kennedy had only been playing tennis for about eight months.
What happened was, they won.
Not long after, two anonymous patrons gifted Kennedy with a junior membership in the Tennis Club of Albuquerque. His game soon rose a several notches. He got a job as a doorman at the Hiland Theater on Central Avenue. $18.75 a week. He would use most of his pay to buy tennis balls. He'd call up the best players in town—much older guys, usually—and ask them to play. They'd hem or haw and surely think, who does this kid think he is? Kennedy would then pipe up, "I'll bring new balls."
At Highland High School Kennedy was an indifferent student, residing in the bottom third of his class. "I didn't think I would amount to anything," he says now.
Al Kaplan, then Highland's tennis coach, stopped Kennedy at practice one day. "Jack, you know why you're getting such poor grades?"
Kennedy shrugged. Nobody in his family had ever gone to college. Why should he study? Why should he care?
Kaplan went on, "You're different, Jack. You're left-handed, for one. You need to figure out how different you are and work on that, just as do on the tennis court."
A week or so later, Margaret Menagh, a Highland High guidance counselor, encouraged Kennedy, then a junior, to take a national achievement test, much like today's SAT or ACT. He scored the highest in the state. He was, it seems, innately smart after all.
"Well, what happened was, I figured things out."
Today, he continues to educate himself. If you thought this man spent all those years simply looking inside people's mouths, you're wrong. He reads.
Kennedy loves to quote people—Seneca, Mark Twain, Plato, even himself. Jack Kennedy: "Everything I learned about life I learned on the tennis court."
Such thinking helped him graduate No. 1 in his class from Baylor College of Dentistry. In other words, he figured out what he needed to succeed in the first couple of weeks of school. Just as he figured out how to beat a baseliner who got everything back.
Such thinking got him through a horrifying experience four years ago. Three blood clots and an imperiled heart arrived all at once. The perfect medical storm.
"Well, what happened was, I nearly died."
In tennis, he had learned to hang on. He knew how to pull out a long tough match. Hang on, figure out a way. Play to my strengths and the other guy's weaknesses. He survived.
Make no mistake, Jack Kennedy does not live in the past. He follows the fortunes of David Ferrer, the gritty little Spaniard who is a third Kennedy's age and who gets everything back.
Kennedy doesn't get many balls back on a court these days, but he gives back.
He has helped more than one promising junior receive a membership in the Tennis Club of Albuquerque.
Each winter he and Susan spend a few months in an RV park in southern California. He started a successful tennis program there for the park's many senior citizens.
Life is good, isn't it?
He mulls the question, smiles.
"Well, what happened was, I got lucky."

The geographic distribution of nanoscience and nanotechnology literature
Rémi Longtin News, Publications	 literature, world
An essay in the journal Small (2011, 7, No. 20, 2836-C2839) discusses the growing footprint of nanoscience and nanotechnology on the global scientific landscape. The authors used query terms such as nano*, graphene* and polymer* in Web of Science by Thomson Reuters to generate search results from several key journals in the field such as ACS Nano and Nano Letters. The search results were subsequently analyzed in terms of scope, geographic distribution and footprint on the scientific literature. The essay's main points are outlined below.
The percentage of the records returned by the search terms for each year dramatically increased from 20 % in 1991 to 80 % in 2010. Also, the term nano* was not sufficient to capture the full activity in these fields and tended to underestimate the literature, especially that of the 1990s. In terms of subject category, the increase in nanoscale studies has been of several-fold for the top 5 Web of Science categories, namely Physics, Materials Science, Chemistry (physical), Chemistry (multidisciplinary) and Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. The latter had the greatest increase from 18 to 70 % from 1997 to 2009.
Clearly, nanotechnology and nanoscience have grown in importance since the 1990s, yet this is not so equally around the world. China, USA, Japan, Germany and South Korea are the top 5 countries by number of records. The percentages of 2010 records returned by the search are stunning for Asian countries in comparison to the so-called G7 countries. Indeed, China, India and Iran have made nanoscale studies a very high research priority with more than 10 % of the total records related to them. On the other hand, England, the Netherlands and Canada are at the bottom of the list with 3.66%, 3.65 % and 3.48 % of their records devoted to nano, respectively. Switzerland with 5.65 % is above the EU-27 average at 5.24 %. The authors conclude by stating that the alarming increase in the proportion taken in the literature by nanoscience and nanotechnology may continue unabated, but that this may depend on how the scientific community delivers concrete application in the "post-Hype" era.
Although quite informative, this essay does not discuss the reasons behind the discrepancy between the rising Asian countries and the industrialized Western countries. There is also no mention of what is being done in terms of prioritizing nanoscience and nanotechnology in the low ranking countries. Let us quickly consider the case of Canada. Even though it has established a National Institute for Nanotechnology and that some organizations, such as NanoQuébec, exist to support nanotechnology innovation, the country's output or footprint has remained limited in such a way that it is at the bottom of the list. Why is this so? One could argue that this is the result of differing work ethics and governmental priorities from one country to another.
Others might argue that this depends on which sector of the economy a country is built upon. Economies relying on the primary raw materials sector (mining, forestry and oil) would be less interested, at least immediately, in what nanoscience and nanotechnology has to offer. Conversely, countries based on the secondary manufacturing sector of economy would be far more likely to invest in nano. The push towards continued miniaturization in electronics is a good example of this. In the case of Canada, these questions remain open for discussion.

I understand the way countries choose their priorities depending on the economy basis. But in case of Canada, the government had built a lot of programs to push toward in all applied research fields including the Nanotechnologies. Many Universities and research center are dedicated… Why Canada is still in bottom list?
The mean question…
Samuel Silke Saturday May 7th, 2016 at 10:03 PM
The field of nanotechnology is extremely varied, involving the creation of nano-size devices and new approaches of molecular self-assembly, as well as development and design of new materials with nanoscale dimensions.
China is positioning itself to become a world leader in nanotechnology and 2014 is shaping up to be a momentous year.if China is to be successful in moving up the value chain in terms of global manufacturing


Brewer Scottish & Newcastle (S&N) has found itself the victim of a bar room brawl.
Its assailants, Denmark's Carlsberg and Holland's Heineken, last month launched a hostile £7bn joint takeover bid for the second-largest UK beer company.
S&N, owner of brands such as Fosters, Newcastle Brown Ale, and John Smiths, immediately rejected the approach, and the insults have flown ever since.
Amid levels of acrimony that show you do not need to consume excessive amounts of the firms' products to have a good shouting match, S&N's chief John Dunsmore has accused Carlsberg of trying to break in through the toilet window.
Mr Dunsmore has even gone on to say his own mother could have afforded to make a higher bid, so derisory have been Heineken and Carlsberg's two offers - the first at 720 pence per S&N share, and then a higher offer of 750p.
Carlsberg and Heineken have countered that S&N's core business in western Europe "remains under pressure", and that the UK group's latest trading update is "unconvincing".
But if S&N is struggling on the continent - something it strenuously denies - why are Carlsberg and Heineken so interested?
The short answer sounds like something from a spy novel - it's Russia and a very dangerous shotgun.
In essence, Carlsberg and Heineken are trying to buy S&N because Carlsberg wants to gain total control of a Russian brewer it co-owns with the UK firm.
The company in question - Baltic Beverages Holdings (BBH) - owns Baltika, Russia's best-selling beer brand. And in marked contrast to stagnant beer sales in Western Europe and North America, the Russian beer industry is booming.
The market grew 23% in 2006 alone, and Russian drinkers now consume an average 67 litres of beer per year compared with just 20 litres in the late 1990s, as increasing numbers switch from vodka.
With growth this strong, it is no surprise that BBH is highly profitable for Carlsberg and S&N, which both own an equal 50% stake.
But where does the firearm come into it?
The term shotgun refers to a clause in the joint venture that makes it deliberately difficult for either Carlsberg or S&N to gain full control of BBH.
Like an organised Wild West shoot out, either Carlsberg or S&N can formally offer to buy out the other's share. However, they only get one crack at it.
This is because if the other company then immediately comes back with a higher bid, it has to be accepted. With this clause in place, the risk of losing everything is simply too high for either side to make a realistic move.
It is for this reason that buying the whole of S&N would be a far safer - if more expensive - move for Carlsberg.
Heineken enters the picture as Carlsberg's co-bidder because it has its eyes on S&N's main UK business, with the two firms planning to split the British company between them.
While S&N has vowed to see off Carlsberg and Heineken's hostile approach, pledging to cut costs by £20m and launch a legal challenge, financial analysts covering the beer industry are being tight lipped about the firm's chances of survival.
Such has been the heat of battle between S&N and its two assailants, that finding an analyst prepared to go on record with their views is harder than discovering a lager drinker who prefers his pint served lightly warmed.
Off the record, most say S&N is doomed.
"Carlsberg and Heineken will get S&N within the next three or four months," one analyst tells the BBC.
"Raising their bid to 780p or 800p per share should be enough.
"It's simply because S&N shareholders will realise they will get far less if the firm remains independent."
What beer industry analysts are prepared to talk about on the record is that Carlsberg and Heineken's interest in S&N is just the latest example of seemingly ever-growing consolidation in the global brewing industry.
This consolidation has been caused by a number of factors, but most pressingly, falling sales in long established Europe and North America markets.
In the UK alone, recent figures from the British Beer and Pub Association show that overall beer sales have fallen 22% since their 1979 peak.
The drop has been blamed on an increasing preference for wine and sprits, and the situation is the same in the US.
Brewers, further hit by higher costs for key raw materials and packaging, and price deflation in the supermarket sector, are joining together to achieve economies of scale.
This was the case back in October, when SABMiller, the UK-listed world number two brewer, announced that it was forming a new alliance in North America with Molson Coors.
SABMiller also recently announced that it had bought Holland's Grolsch for 816m euros ($1.2bn; £583m).
Further, there is also continuing speculation that the world's largest brewer, Belgian-Brazilian group InBev, could join with number three and Budweiser owner, US firm Anheuser-Busch.
Against this backdrop, S&N, the world's seventh largest brewer, appears to have a fight on its hands if it wishes to retain its independence.

"Flyduino" has existed since 2011 and has already gained deep experience in the design and production of electronic components for Multicopter. By cooperating with well-known representatives of the multirotor scene - initially without any commercial intent - long-term projects such as flight controllers, sensor boards (IMUs) and motor controllers (ESCs). Cooperations with Alexandre Dubus (France - MultiWii), Jussi Hermansen (Denmark - Viacopter - KK), Bill Nesbitt (USA - AutoQuad, ESC32) Alexander Fedorov and many other international players of the hobbies.
Flyduino - whose name is derived from the open source project "Arduino" - first developed, tested and produced the first affordable flight controller based on ATMega 1280 in cooperation with the MultiWii community. The control system was complemented by a variety of sensor boards, which in the course of time passed through several development stages and were steadily pushed forward by Jussi Hermansen and Fabio Varesano (Italy - FreeIMU).
The focus was always on the end user: the components were affordable, the simplicity and transparency of the firmware and software were the engines for the continued development of the components. Over time, the company's own development, engines, engine controls and other peripherals were added.
From cooperation with the internationally known Multirotor Stuntpiloten "wartox" frame for Quadrocopter were developed.
From the cooperation with Bill Nesbitt the so far most extensive project, the "AutoQuad". With this open source team, the focus is on autonomously operating aircraft - in the meantime, the development of the "ESC32" engine control was added to ensure an optimally coordinated ratio of the individual components.
Another focal point of continuous innovation is the "Brushlessmania", which has been going on for about a year, launched by Aleksey Moskalenko (Russia - Alexmos / Basecam), which is concerned with the development of camera stabilization with brushless motors.
In the meantime, the 3rd generation of stand-alone camera gimbals has already been developed, which are currently the gateway to many new applications with an ARM Cortex 32bit processor and 3-axis stabilization.
In a very short space of time, many developments have emerged, both for the hobby sector and for high-professional applications in the film and photography sector.
In the meantime Flyduino also have a name in the demanding RC/FPV racing scene and is delivering capable electronics made in Germany by our chief engineer Felix Niessen.
