Q: Setting ContentView height in a ScrollView to change dynamically I have been struggling with this for days now and I hope there is someone who can help.
My structure looks something like this:
UIView
|---UIScrollView
    |---UIContentView
        |---UIHeaderView
        |---UITableView
        |---UITCollectionView

I set my heights and my constraints to 0 (I also tired to set it to 3600 for testing purposes) in Interface Builder and then I run a for loop to get the heights of all the views inside UIContentView after all the subviews are loaded:
override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
    var contentRect = CGRect.zero

    for view in contentView.subviews {
        contentRect = contentRect.union(view.frame)
    }
    contentHeightConstraint.constant = contentRect.height
}

I also call a method to reload the table and update subviews at cellForRowAt indexPath and when I retrieveData And retrieveImages FromFirebase:
func configureTableView() {

    self.postTableHeightConstraint.constant = postTableView.contentSize.height

    postTableView.reloadData()
    postTableView.layoutSubviews()
    postTableView.layoutIfNeeded()

}

My Autolayout is set up correctly because everything scrolls and looks right but for some reason it does not create enough scroll area, it is as if it only loads about 75% of the required scrollable space in my contentView.
It is as if it overrides the values it calculates in viewDidLayoutSubViews with the ones I set as placeholders in Interface Builder
I have tried all of these:

*

*Set the heightConstraint of the contentView = contentRect.height

*Set the heightConstraint of the scrollView = contentRect.height

*Set the heightConstraint of the tableView = contentRect.height

*Tried a combination of the above

None of who seem to work, what am I missing?

A: To solve this I moved my viewDidLayoutSubviews() code into a new custom method, and called it every time I finished my configureTableView() method
func calcTotalHeight() {
    for view in contentView.subviews {
        self.contentRect = self.contentRect.union(view.frame)
    }
    contentHeightConstraint.constant = self.contentRect.height
    contentView.needsUpdateConstraints()
}

func configureTableView() {

    //1. Set Table Row dimensions
    postTableView.rowHeight = UITableViewAutomaticDimension
    postTableView.estimatedRowHeight = 375

    //2. Update Table View and reload contentview
    postTableView.reloadData()
    contentView.layoutIfNeeded()

    //3. Update Table View Height
    self.postTableHeightConstraint.constant = postTableView.contentSize.height

    //4. Reload ContentView and Recalculate New Height of Content View
    contentView.layoutSubviews()
    calcTotalHeight()
}

Not the most eloquent solution but it works, and does not produce too much overhead on loading.
Also it is important to point out that the order in which reloadData, layoutIfNeeded and layoutSubviews in relation to the other code plays a critical part in getting this to work.

Trump Jabs Schwarzenegger Over Show Ratings
U.S. President Donald Trump weighed in on his former television show again Thursday during comments at a National Prayer Breakfast.
Trump was highly critical of new "The Celebrity Apprentice" star, actor and former California governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, calling the show a "total disaster."
"I want to pray for Arnold's ratings," the president said. The comment elicited some laughter from the audience.
The comments came after Trump was introduced by the show's creator, Mark Burnett, whom he called a "special, special friend," and cited the "tremendous success" the two had with the show.
Schwarzenegger was quick to respond via a short video clip posted on Twitter in which he suggested the two switch jobs.
"You take over TV, cause you're such an expert in ratings, and I take over your job," he said, "and then people can finally sleep comfortably again."
This was not the first time Trump has mentioned his old show. Earlier this month, he made derisive remarks about the show's ratings under Schwarzenegger.
Schwarzenegger responded to that jab as well, wishing the then president-elect "the best of luck" on a Twitter post.

Utah Jazz; doomed or destined for better
4 months ago Nicholas Jeffery
The loss of two of the greatest stars in Utah Jazz history
The loss of two of the greatest stars in Utah Jazz history has fans wondering, what now? Coming out of the 2022 off season, it's pretty apparent that a lot of Jazz nation aren't feeling very optimistic for this upcoming 2022-2023 season. Having lost both Donovan Mitchell to the Cleveland Cavaliers and Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves, both perennial all-stars for the Jazz, definitely stings.
Mitchell and Gobert both have been a part of the team's success for over five years, bringing national attention to Utah in a way that hasn't been seen since the John Stockton and Karl Malone era in the 90s, and reigniting that excitement into the hearts of each fan extending from Logan down to St. George and every city in between.
It was an excitement that should not have been there in the first place because the Jazz had just lost Gordon Hayward, their first all-star in over six years, to the Boston Celtics and were looking to rebuild for a few years. But after Mitchell had a borderline superstar rookie season and led the Jazz to a playoff appearance, the expectations were high for the Jazz in the following years. And with star center Rudy Gobert winning the coveted Defensive Player of the Year award three years in a row, it seemed that nothing could slow the Jazz team down.
Yet in the years following Mitchell's breakout year, Utah had a rough time making it past the second round of the playoffs despite amazing performances by both Gobert and Mitchell. So what was the issue? A lot of people speculate some friction in the locker room was the root cause of the Jazz having a rough time on the court. Countless rumors floated around that Mitchell and Gobert did not get along and this caused terrible team chemistry both on and off the court. Both players were quick to dispel any and all rumors that one or both of them wanted out of the franchise.
Mitchell stated in a recent interview, "…let's try and do this as a group and make changes if need be, but not myself or big fella. Let's run it back" And although we may never know what the problem actually was, there is one thing that's almost certain–the future for the Jazz is looking bright.
In the midst of the 2022 season Danny Ainge, one of basketball's brightest CEOs, joined the Jazz franchise to oversee player operations. In Ainge's previous tenure with the Boston Celtics, he took some of the most beloved and fan favorite players and traded them away seemingly without a second thought.
At the time, the basketball world questioned his methods and thought he was crazy for trading a questionably championship-level squad to other markets. But as the Celtics failed to make an extended playoff run, he felt it was time to move on to newer and better things. In the years following Boston had tremendous success throughout the regular season and the playoffs. And in more recent years, those assets that Ainge brought to Boston have translated into a championship caliber team.
What does this mean for the Utah Jazz? It means that although they've lost a few of the NBA's best, there is a method to the madness. Having acquired countless draft picks and young talent from across the NBA, the Jazz are now in position to rebuild and create one of the best teams for years to come.

When it comes to nutrition, we all seem to have trouble doing it properly. Our http://empoweredsustenance.com/benefits-of-collagen-protein/ problem areas vary though and sometimes, we need help identifying these problems. Look at your eating habits and decide which one you pick. Is it the salad or the cheeseburger? The soda or bottled water? The healthy choices are obvious and if you don't pick them as often as you should, that may be your problem.
Eat the colors of the rainbow! Vibrantly colored produce are often low-calorie foods with lots of nutrients. Include some fruits and vegetables every time you cook a meal. Fruit skins provide many benefits if they are edible.
Keep away from snacks that contain saturated fats in high amounts. Oils can actually contain even more saturated fat than meats. This frequently includes oils that can even have higher levels of saturated fat in comparison to animal products. Saturated fat can raise fat levels in the body. Even if a product says it is cholesterol free, it can still raise the levels of cholesterol in your blood.
If you're having a treat, try and minimize the damage by making it diet-friendly. Pizza should be balanced, and your toppings might have a ratio of a quarter meat to two-thirds vegetables to represent your newly varied diet. This will help you cut back on calories and fat, even with http://locamellvacances.com/?7858583-how-to-make-the-sales-for-your-online-supplements rewards.

Diamonds from the deep: Study suggests water may exist in Earth's lower mantle
The molecular structure of ice-VII (upper right) is shown with an artistic rendering of the Earth and a cutaway view of the inner Earth (right). Crystallized water, in the form of ice-VII, was found in diamond samples studied at Berkeley Lab. Its presence suggests liquid water may exist at extreme depths. Credit: Wikimedia Commons
Water on Earth runs deep – very deep. The oceans have been measured to a maximum depth of 7 miles, though water is known to exist well below the oceans. Just how deep this hidden water reaches, and how much of it exists, are the subjects of ongoing research.
Now a new study suggests that water may be more common than expected at extreme depths approaching 400 miles and possibly beyond – within Earth's lower mantle. The study, which appeared March 8 in the journal Science, explored microscopic pockets of a trapped form of crystallized water molecules in a sampling of diamonds from around the world.
Diamond samples from locations in Africa and China were studied through a variety of techniques, including a method using infrared light at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab). Researchers used Berkeley Lab's Advanced Light Source (ALS), and Argonne National Laboratory's Advanced Photon Source, which are research centers known as synchrotron facilities.
The tiny traces of crystallized water, trapped in spaces called inclusions that measure just a few microns (millionths of a meter) in length, contain the molecular signature of ice VII. This crytallized water likely formed from liquid water existing at very high pressures, according to the study.
The structure and chemical studies helped the scientists to determine the pressures and temperatures at which the diamonds formed. This allowed the scientists to estimate the depths of their formation.
Oliver Tschauner, the study's lead author and a professor of research in the Department of Geoscience at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, said it was surprising that so many of the studied diamonds from a random sampling seemed to originate from deep inside the Earth, within and even beyond the so-called transition zone sandwiched between Earth's upper and lower mantles.

While only about 60 diamonds had previously been confirmed to originate at depths greater than about 190 miles, the latest study added several more to this tally.
"It seems many diamonds come from greater depths," Tschauner said. "In the past, people had focused more on larger inclusions," tens of times the size of the ones that were the focus of the latest study. "Some of these small inclusions may have been overlooked before," he added.
Researchers concluded that some of the inclusions likely were formed from fluid existing at depths of 250 miles to 340 miles beneath Earth's surface. Others may have formed at depths ranging from 380 miles to 500 miles – possibly within Earth's "shallow" lower mantle.
"It's not just a curiosity to have a diamond residing deep in Earth's mantle – this is direct evidence for aqueous fluid in the deep Earth," Tschauner said.
The pressures that formed these deeper diamonds are estimated at approximately 24 to 25 gigapascals, which is about 224 times more pressure than exists at the bottom the ocean's deepest point in its Mariana Trench.
The composition of the fluid that was trapped in the inclusions appears to be complex, with traces of carbonates, oxides, and salt, Tschauner said.
The research team enlisted infrared spectroscopy at the ALS's Beamline 1.4, which helped them to observe the chemistry of the tiny inclusions.
Hans Bechtel, a research scientist in the Scientific Support Group at the ALS, explained that the infrared technique measures vibrational signatures that detail chemistry at the microscopic level. "With synchrotron light, we can focus down to 2 to 10 microns in the infrared," he said, "and scan across each sample to create a 'hyperspectral image' that reveals the detailed chemical composition."
Recommended For You Water appeared while Earth was still growing
It's not yet possible to estimate how much watery fluid exists in Earth's transition zone and how it's distributed, Tschauner said, but more diamond studies should help with the estimates.
Such studies can also help scientists learn about how much water "recycling" goes on in the mantle, and the process by which ocean water reaches into the mantle, for example.
Tschauner said he's already exploring ways to better prepare diamond samples for future studies – perhaps even using methods enlisted by jewelers – to better understand their microscopic chemistry.
This new thrust of research provides a unique opportunity to "see" inside the inner Earth, Tschauner noted. "It probably will open new avenues in studies."
The ALS and Advanced Photon Source are DOE Office of Science User Facilities.
Researchers from the University of Chicago, California Institute of Technology, China University of Geosciences, University of Hawaii at Manoa, and Royal Ontario Museum also participated in the study. The work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Basic Energy Sciences and the National Science Foundation.

It's very hard to be a great player in each industry. I would be very happy if I am a good one.
I was bothered by the cramps by the recent three marathons. I know there are one or the other problems when I tried to run faster. And I was disappointed by myself. And Sometimes I talked to myself, I would have a great experience if I did not have a cramp and race the whole race at the pace I can run. In another word, I could not reach my potential limit yet.
As a mortgage broker, I am also trying to good, hard to be a great loan originator. I am always one of the top loan originators, but it is hard to do everything correctly. There are a lot of issues I can not control.
For the past three months, I closed lots of loans, and I got good rates for my clients, but there was one problem, it was slow. I have someone complained about it. But when the volume picked up at the lender's side, and when they did not hire extra people, the delay was expected.
In this week, I got two replies from my clients that they had great experience with me. The rate was good, the process was very smooth. And they would refer me to their friends. We are supposed to run the business this way.
In the past, I had some online ads, and I thought those will bring me more business. For some reason, I stopped the online ads, the business was not affected. So my referral engine is good.
For the past two or three months, I handled a few transactions from the first time buyers. This is a good sign. And there are a few who wants to move up to a big house(not in bay area. Bay Area is a different market). So I think the builder stock should be doing well for the next a few months.
I had a good rest for the past week. And I am ready for the training again. Yes, another Marathon in 3 weeks. I am looking forward to it. And compared to the other races, I will put in all my effort, yes, I will try to BQ this time.

TIME'S LANGUAGE: SELECTED POEMS 1959-2018
450 pages of poetry from 30 books over 60 years
TIME'S LANGUAGE: SELECTED POEMS 1959-2018 Wings Press, San Antonio, Texas - Edited by Katherine M. Hedeen and Víctor Rodríguez Núñez
Tuesday 6 February 2018 , by Margaret Randall
Ultimately, there are two kinds of poets: those who have a long vitae and those who have an amazing life. Just glancing at Margaret Randall's list of works is enough to show us we are before a distinguished and prolific writer. Beginning with Giant of Tears in 1959, she has published over forty poetry collections. To this we can add dozens more—works of oral history, essays, photography, translations, and anthologies—for a total of approximately one hundred books, many of which have been translated into Bengali, Bulgarian, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Slovenian, Turkish, and for over four decades, Spanish. Yet this impressive catalog of publications pales in comparison to her life.

Cloudflare Prices Shares IPO At $15 Per Share
Online security and content delivery company Cloudflare priced its shares at $15 per share on Thursday afternoon, $1 per share above its raised range.
The company, which will begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday, first pitched its IPO between $10 and $12 per share, which it later increased to $12 to $14.
At $15 per share, the company raised $525 million in its debut. Bloomberg first reported the pricing.
The figure outstrips the company's prior known fundraising. Cloudflare raised $332.1 million as a private company, with its most recent round totaling $150 million in March 2019. The company last had a private valuation of $3.25 billion.
The San Francisco-based company's debut on the public markets–it's listing under the ticker symbol "NET"–comes on the heels of some potentially troubling revelations by the company. Cloudflare said in an updated filing on Wednesday that it "may have failed to comply with certain U.S. export-related filing and reporting requirements and may have submitted incorrect information to the U.S. government in connection with certain hardware exports."
"We identified that our products were used by, or for the benefit of, certain individuals and entities included in OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (the SDN List), including entities identified in OFAC's counter-terrorism and counter-narcotics trafficking sanctions programs, or affiliated with governments currently subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions," the company wrote in the filing.
The news of the disclosure was first reported by the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, but the company was still able to price above its target range. We'll see how other investors feel about the company and its new valuation when it starts trading tomorrow.

Eisai's New Drug Approval for Fycompa for Adjunctive Treatment of Partial Onset Seizures in China
TOKYO, Oct 15, 2019 - (JCN Newswire) - Eisai Co., Ltd. has announced that Eisai received a New Drug Approval for its in-house discovered and developed antiepileptic drug (AED) Fycompa (perampanel) from the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for use in an adjunctive treatment of partial onset seizures (with or without secondarily generalized seizures) in epilepsy patients 12 years of age and older. Fycompa was designated for Priority Review by the NMPA due to its significant clinical benefits compared to existing treatments, and was approved in about 12 months since the submission in September 2018.
In China, it is estimated that there are approximately 9 million patients with epilepsy, approximately 60% of whom being affected by partial-onset seizures. About 40% patients with partial-onset seizures require adjunctive treatment.1 As approximately 30% of patients with epilepsy are unable to control their seizures with currently available AEDs,2 this is a disease with significant unmet medical needs.
Fycompa is a first-in-class AED discovered at Eisai's Tsukuba Research Laboratories. Administered orally once-daily, it is a highly selective, noncompetitive AMPA receptor antagonist that reduces neuronal hyperexcitation associated with seizures by targeting glutamate activity at AMPA receptors on postsynaptic membranes.
Fycompa has been approved in over 60 countries around the world as an adjunctive treatment for partial- onset seizures with or without secondarily generalized seizures in patients with epilepsy 12 years of age and older. In addition, Fycompa has been approved in over 55 countries as an adjunctive treatment for primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in patients with epilepsy 12 years of age and older. In the United States, Fycompa is also indicated for monotherapy and adjunctive use in the treatment of partial-onset seizures with or without secondarily generalized seizures in patients with epilepsy 4 years of age and older.
Eisai considers neurology including epilepsy, a therapeutic area of focus. With this approval of Fycompa in China, Eisai pursues our mission to provide "seizure freedom" to a greater number of patients with epilepsy across the world living. Eisai seeks to address the diverse needs of, as well as increasing the benefits provided to, patients with epilepsy and their families.
About Eisai
Eisai Co., Ltd. is a leading global research and development-based pharmaceutical company headquartered in Japan. We define our corporate mission as "giving first thought to patients and their families and to increasing the benefits health care provides," which we call our human health care (hhc) philosophy.

Why companies that cut their dividend can be attractive income investments
Thursday 16 February 2017 9:30 pm
Business groups have joined forces to fight the government's business rates plans
Helen Cahill Cahill
Thirteen business groups and industry associations including the Confederation of British Industry, British Chambers of Commerce and British Retail Consortium have formed a united front to fight the government's proposed changes to business rates.
Commercial property taxes have been re-evaluated for the first time in seven years and are set to soar for many firms across the capital from 1 April.
The government is also changing the mechanism by which businesses appeal against its valuations.
Read more: Westminster becomes first council to push for more business rates retention
It has proposed a "reasonable professional judgement" provision in draft regulations reforming business rates, due to go before parliament before April.
This would mean that ratepayers would not be allowed to appeal an incorrect business rates valuation if it were inside a "reasonable margin" of error. The reforms, which would come into force from April if approved, could see major firms left overpaying on their rates bills and unable to challenge them.
But advisors at Cushman & Wakefield, Daniel Watney and Gerald Eve have argued in a letter to the government, published today, that officials have not defined what is "reasonable".
In addition, they say the Local Government Finance Act 1988 does not permit the government to ban appeals on the basis of disputed accuracy.
Read more: Culture shock: How London's theatres will be squeezed by business rate hike
Trade bodies representing retailers, SMEs and pubs have signed the letter, penned by law firm Berwin Leighton Paisner, which questions the legality of the proposed changes.
They have demanded that the offending clause be taken out of the new regulations.
John Webber, head of rating at Colliers International, said an "unchallengeable" error in business rates valuations would "pile tens of millions of pounds on to the business rates bill".
"At a time when many firms, particularly in London and the south east, can expected their bills to skyrocket, this adds insult to injury," he said.
A government spokesman said: "These claims are simply false. We are not preventing anyone from appealing their bills, or setting any margin of error for appeals being heard.
"We're reforming the appeals process to make it easier for businesses to check, challenge and appeal their bills, while at the same time generous business rate reliefs mean thousands more businesses are seeing a reduction. From April, 600,000 businesses will pay no rates at all."
But because business rates are tied to the rental valuations, and as rents have jumped in London over the last seven years, firms in the capital are being hit particularly hard.


I have been involved in a relay project for Demoteket.
Transformation, something that changes – cells changing from cancer, from bad to good! Google cells, inner universe, skin structure close up and cracking. All cells in our body are replaced after 7 years we are new people – huge change, Seven year itch. Some feared (cancer cells) made beautiful!. Inner change. Beauty and the Beast.
After this little brainstorming session I could clearly see that I wished to make a piece of artwork which revolved around beauty vs. ugly. And that things which are looked upon as ugly also have beauty as decease cells.
When I had made my artwork, I had to send it to another artist who would make something new with inspiration from looking at what I had made. The guy who got my artwork is a musician and I can´t wait to hear what he composes. Simultaneously we where four artist who started the 1´st april and the replay ends at the end of April, and by that time 28 artist´s will have made an interpretation of each others artwork.
Below you see the artwork I made and an overall view of my core inspiration.


The sheer range of 'middle income countries' (MICs) as defined by the World Bank makes this 'analytical category' a poor basis for resource allocation decisions. The divergent paths of China and India since the early 1990s show just how varied MICs are.
The World Bank released their annual GNI per capita data on 1 July 2014. This revises the thresholds for the Bank's widely used income groups, and updates country average income data to 2013.
China's rapid average income growth saw this reach US$6,560 in 2013, up almost 15% on 2012 in US dollar terms, and about half-way to 'high income' threshold (set at US$12,745 in 2013). In contrast, India's average income reached US$1,570, which was 1.3% higher than in the previous year and little more than a tenth of the way to the 'high income' threshold.
The 2013 data also shows that two countries (barely) crossed the US$1,046 threshold to be classified as lower middle income in 2013: the Kyrgz Republic, with average income per person of US$1,200 and South Sudan, just behind Sudan at US$1,120. These were the only moves between the World Bank's income groups in 2013.
An estimated 5% of peple in the Kyrgz Republic were living in extreme poverty in 2011 (no data is available for South Sudan). Several countries that are nearing MIC income levels – Chad Tajikistan and Cambodia, followed by Kenya (with a major upward GDP revision expected in September 2014) and Bangladesh – all suffer from continued extreme poverty.
This suggests that 'MIC' status is a poor basis for making decisions about allocating aid and other resources. Even the supposedly 'rich' developing countries like China suffer from extreme poverty, which will also need to be addressed if the 2030 goal of ending poverty is to be met.

'Open Heart' Premieres January 20 on TeenNick
By Roger Newcomb
TeenNick combines suspense with relatable teen drama in the brand-new live-action mystery series, Open Heart, debuting Tuesday, January 20, at 9 p.m. ET. Produced by Epitome Pictures, a DHX Media company, in association with marblemedia, Open Heart follows 16-year-old Dylan Blake (Karis Cameron), the rebellious daughter of a fractured family of doctors, as she uses her stint as a youth hospital volunteer to secretly investigate the disappearance of her father.
In the wake of her father's disappearance, 16-year-old Dylan Blake falls in with the wrong crowd, gets arrested, and earns court-ordered community service volunteering at Open Heart Memorial, the hospital where her mother and sister are doctors and where her grandparents are board members and benefactors. All Dylan has to do is follow the rules. The hospital is the last place her father was seen alive and while most people think it's a straightforward case of abandonment, Dylan doesn't believe that and sets out to prove something bad happened to her father. Putting her old delinquent skills back into service, Dylan and her new friends--the bright and gossipy Mikayla (Cristine Prosperi) and the handsome charmer Wes (Justin Kelly) - start looking into her dad's disappearance, unearthing a trail of clues that lead them to some very unexpected places.
In the hour-long series premiere, "Last Things First," Dylan starts community service at Open Heart Memorial. She begins a covert investigation into her dad's disappearance and tries to get her hands on hospital security footage from the day he disappeared. Meanwhile, Dylan's sister London struggles with the pressure her mother, Dr. Jane Blake, puts on her at work.
Open Heart reunites Degrassi stars and introduces a crop of newcomers with a cast that includes: Karis Cameron as Dylan Blake, Tori Anderson as Dr. London Blake, Justin Kelly as Wes Silver, Cristine Prosperi as Mikayla Walker, Kevin McGarry as Dr. Timothy "Hud" Hudson, Patrick Kwok-Choon as Seth Park, Jenny Cooper as Dr. Jane Blake, Demore Barnes as Dr. Dominic Karamichaelidis, Elena Juatco as Scarlet, Mena Massoud as Jared, Dylan Everett as Teddy and Jeff Douglas as Richard Blake.
Viewers can immerse themselves in the narrative with a unique digital component that extends their on-air involvement with immediate and exclusive content that places them in the center of the mystery. The Open Heart: Unlocked! app, launching January 2015 on iOS and Android, allows fans to join the plot during and in between episodes to keep up with Dylan's ongoing investigation. The app unlocks Dylan's phone so viewers can scour her text messages, photo gallery and social media accounts to learn more about her private life and study the clues she collects. The Open Heart website (www.open-heart.com) continues the journey with exclusive character confessions and episodic bonus features.
Open Heartwill air regularly on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. (ET) on TeenNick.

It's a nice sunny day and I think it's going to be a little warmer than yesterday so hopefully we get some outside time today. We have a blank day in front of us so I'm trying to think what we should do.
We actually have a blank weekend ahead of us as well. I have suggested going on a little trip - maybe NYC or even just out to Western Mass but Mike hasn't taken me up on it yet...guess that means he's not interested! I'm sure we'll find something to do - there's always work of course. I made some eggs for breakfast and had them along with whole wheat toast and a pear. I don't have much for lunch so I am going to try and plan an outing around that. I need to get a bathing suit because I'm starting a swim class with Will next week and my suit from last summer is certainly not fitting me now!! Have a great last day of the week! I hope everyone gets out a little early!

As the month has progressed and the weather improved, more ISE employees have been riding their bikes to work. There has also been a little encouragement from the City of Coralville as construction season is in full force near our main office.
To celebrate, a couple of the committees organized activities for all ISE team members.
Each month our Lunch and Learn committee hosts a speaker as a means to share knowledge with peers. Yesterday our ISE bike expert, Todd, gave a presentation on the ABC++'s (see what he did there - C++!) of biking. It was very informative as an introduction to bike maintenance - everything a good commuter should know for tire pressure to changing a tire to clothing.
ISE's Fun Committee also got in on the action with a breakfast this morning for all employees and prizes for those that commuted in by bike. Thanks to Geoff's Bike and Ski, World of Bikes, and Sugar Bottom Bikes for the donations!

Jesse James and Kat Von D split less than a month before nups

The ink has faded on Jesse James and Kat Von D's relationship.
Unsurprisingly, James, 42, and the 29-year-old "LA Ink" star have called off their wedding less than a month before they were expected to tie the knot.
The two went public with their relationship about a year ago — around the same time James' disastrous divorce from ex-wife Sandra Bullock was finalized.
Kat broke her split news via Twitter. She didn't give a reason for the breakup, only writing: "I am no longer with Jesse, and out of respect for him, his family and myself, that's all the info I'd like to share. Thanks for respecting that."
Respect? That's a whole lot more than we'd give to Jesse James, considering he admitted to cheating on America's Sweetheart numerous times throughout the pair's marriage!
