Rock River Regenerative Graziers
Farmers and Farms
Buy Grassfed
"Regenerative agriculture represents more than a shift in practices, it is also a shift in paradigm and in our basic relationship with nature"
Rock River Regenerative Grazeirs (R3G) is improving the Rock River Basin Watershed by converting land from row crop and continuous grazed pastures into permanent, regenerative rotational grazing systems. To do this, we are creating a strong and diverse network of demonstration farms to collect data and promote regenerative practices into the future. In addition to equipping demonstration farms and farmers, our top priority is to grow managed grazing by offering support to help farmers convert. We will accomplish this through farmer to farmer outreach, training, mentoring, conducting grazing workshops, pasture walks, and offering financial support to practices. These activities will give new and converting farmers the ability to undertake the difficult start-up phase of their farming journey. Are you an aspiring or current rotational grazer? Go to our contact page and get in touch with us so you can join our network and find out how we may be able to support you in your journey.
CONVENTIONAL VS ROTATIONAL GRAZING
Managed Rotational grazing has multi-pronged community impacts including healthier animals, more income, cleaner farms, and healthier environments and watersheds. Despite the benefits of rotational grazing, adoption is relatively low among farmers in the Rock River Basin. This is because managed grazing systems take a lot of time, money, and knowledge to build, but once we get them going they are relatively cheap and easy to maintain but they make a huge difference on our soil and water health forever. Farmers say that the start-up phase of the rotational grazing journey is difficult because there is so much new information to learn and it is difficult to find support. Farmers also feel that it is financially risky to change. By assisting farmers through this tricky start-up phase, more farmers will be willing and able to convert their farms. This project will provide both financial and technical support to landowners to accelerate their successful transitions. Maximizing the benefits of well-managed rotational grazing lands takes knowledge and skill, and planning, so offering technical assistance peer-to-peer education and increasing demand for grass-based products are key to establishing and maintaining successful systems.
Continuous grazing and feedlot feeding are the most prevalent way of feeding livestock within the Rock River Basin. Continuously grazed pastures can cause manure and sediment-related runoff and have decreased forage yields. Feedlots also can have catastrophic runoff and utilize row crops as a feed source which also contributes to poor soil health, manure, and nutrient loss, and overall degraded water quality. The above-mentioned livestock feeding and farming methods result in high levels of soil erosion and loss of topsoil and impaired water quality from agriculture-related pollutants in ground and surface water.
Rotational grazing systems are an important component of regenerative agriculture that can improve ecosystem function and resilience and can be a cost-effective strategy for livestock farmers. Using a systems approach, rotational grazing integrates multiple agricultural principles to improve ecosystem function and resilience including improving soil health through maintaining perennial cover and minimizing soil disturbances, maximizing plant diversity, and providing high-quality habitat for pollinators and wildlife. Operations that keep cover on the ground year-round increase water infiltration and reduce runoff and the impacts of flooding.
Rotational grazing is a system where large pastures are divided into smaller paddocks allowing livestock to be moved from one paddock to another easily. Livestock graze through these paddocks of high-quality forage, then the forage rests and regrows for the next grazing cycle. Rotational grazing provides multiple benefits for farmers and the environment. These regenerative systems enhance farm profitability; minimize chemicals and inputs; improve soil health and water quality; increase sequestered carbon; decrease emissions of other greenhouse gases and provide healthful food for communities. Rotational grazing improves watersheds through the abundance of perennial grass cover. The vast root structure of grasses keeps soil from washing away, especially during heavy rainfall, and controls flooding. This reduction in soil loss helps prevent phosphorus from entering surface water within the Rock River Basin. These robust pastures also prevent nitrates from leaching into groundwater. Because it buffers heavy rainfalls, managed grazing also helps control flooding.
Grazing-based operations reduce feed, machinery, and veterinary costs while providing for people and caring for the land. Managed grazing is working profitably for many producers across the state; indeed, grass-based farms are an important strategy for introducing new farmers into livestock management because they can be low-capital operations that generate sufficient income. Managed grazing offers a relatively low-cost opportunity for new farmers to stay in or join rural communities, improving agriculture by diversifying the landscape, revitalizing rural communities and connecting them to eaters from cities and suburbs. Moreover, the profitability of these systems is more stable and resilient to price and weather shocks, making them an attractive, less risky farming operation.

Finding this toy online today almost made me wet my pants. How could you not love a satanic chicken that comes with a skull head and a piece of bacon?
* one (1) Necronomicon, 2nd. Ed.
If you know WOOT, you know their deals are 1 day only so if you like this shirt there's no time to waste!
A St. Anne (Illinois) resident reported that $10.18 worth of lunch meats and a slab of bacon were stolen from her car. She told police she came home from a store where she bought the meats and left them inside of her car with all of the windows rolled down while she went inside to eat some watermelon, sheriff's reports said. An old Polaroid camera, also in the car, was missing as well.
Really? She wanted to eat the watermelon so bad that she couldn't carry $10 worth of bacon into the house?
Is that three pounds of bacon in your pants or are you just happy to see me?
Again? What's with the bacon in the pants?
And one of the more recent cases of The Bacon Bandit.
So many more instances, I could keep going but I'll save them for another installment of The Bacon Files. Until then, watch your bacon and keep it safe! And if you really need a piece of watermelon that bad, take your bacon with you.

Duriavenator ("lovec z Dorsetu") byl rod teropodního dinosaura, žijícího asi před 170 miliony let (stupeň bajok) na území dnešní Velké Británie. Duriavenator byl popsán paleontologem Rogerem Bensonem v roce 2008 jako nové rodové jméno pro druh Megalosaurus hesperis. Náleží mezi nejstarší zástupce skupiny tetanur, ke kterým patří tak známé druhy, jako např. Allosaurus fragilis, Tyrannosaurus rex, Spinosaurus aegyptiacus nebo Velociraptor mongoliensis. Dříve byl tento dravý dinosaurus označován pod nepublikovaným názvem "Walkersaurus".

Rozměry
Tento teropod byl podobně velký, jako známější rod Megalosaurus. Dosahoval délky kolem 7 metrů a hmotnosti zhruba 1000 kilogramů. Patřil tedy ke středně velkým až větším teropodním dinosaurům.

Lluis Quintana-Murci, né le  à Palma de Majorque (Espagne), est un biologiste et généticien de l'évolution franco-espagnol, connu pour ses recherches sur la diversité du génome à travers les populations humaines et sa relation avec les maladies infectieuses. Professeur au Collège de France et à l'Institut Pasteur, il est membre de l'Académie des sciences.

Biographie

Formation

Après avoir fait des études de biologie à l'université de Barcelone, Lluis Quintana-Murci obtient un doctorat en génétique humaine à l'université de Pavie en Italie, et son habilitation à diriger des recherches à Sorbonne Université à Paris.

Parcours professionnel

Après un stage postdoctoral à l'Institut Pasteur, et plusieurs séjours au sein des universités d'Oxford (Royaume-Uni) et de Tucson (États-Unis), il intègre le CNRS en 2001, d'abord comme chargé de recherches puis comme directeur de recherches, jusqu'en 2019.

Actuellement professeur au Collège de France, où il est titulaire de la chaire Génomique humaine et évolution depuis 2019,  et à l'Institut Pasteur, il dirige l'unité de génétique évolutive humaine à l'Institut Pasteur depuis 2007. Il a été également directeur scientifique de l'Institut Pasteur en 2016-2017, et visiting professor à l'Université Rockefeller (New York) pendant l'été 2018.

Travaux scientifiques
Lluis Quintana-Murci consacre sa recherche à l'étude de la diversité du génome humain, aussi bien d'un point de vue fondamental qu'appliqué à la compréhension de certaines pathologies. Il a utilisé son expertise en génétique des populations et évolution pour s'attaquer à des questions relatives à l'histoire démographique des populations humaines, aux mécanismes d'adaptation de l'homme à des changements environnementaux, en particulier aux pressions de sélection exercées par les pathogènes, ainsi qu'à la contribution de la variabilité génétique et épigénétique de l'hôte humain à des différences de réponses immunitaires. Les connaissances fondamentales acquises lors de ces travaux ont des conséquences importantes sur des études de génétique humaine à visée médicale, dont l'objectif est d'identifier les bases génétiques de la résistance ou la susceptibilité aux maladies infectieuses.

Son équipe intègre des techniques de pointe en génomique, immunologie de systèmes, biologie moléculaire et bio-informatique, afin de mieux comprendre les facteurs à l'origine de la diversité du système immunitaire, ouvrant ainsi la voie à la médecine de précision. Les recherches de Lluis Quintana-Murci utilisent une approche multidisciplinaire qui intègre la génétique humaine, la génétique des populations, l'anthropologie, l'épidémiologie et l'immunologie.

I launched this site back in 2012-2013. It's not mobile friendly and is a little behind the times in some other ways, too.
I include it here because I'm still proud of it. I like the way it looks and it performs very well in search engine results.
It is a classic brochure site with lots of photo galleries, links to manufacturer's sites, etc.


The course involves the study and comparison of European Patent Law, with a focus on cases of Dutch, German and English courts, as well as applicable international legal instruments such as the Paris Convention 1883, the European Patent Convention 1963 together with applicable EU Community land other European law (e.g. ECHR 1961). Particular attention will be given to the TRIPS Agreement 1994.
After a general introduction to the historical background, ideology and structure of the different (national and international) legal traditions, attention will focus on substantive law issues such as the criteria for patentability, the scope of protection, issues with regard to the exploitation of inventions, and enforcement problems.
The aim of the course is to provide an insight into the similarities and dissimilarities of national and international patent law protection, seen from the perspective of on the one hand the civil law or European tradition and on the other hand the common law or Anglo-American tradition.
– This is an elective course.


Airbus has revealed they recently experienced a cyber-attack that resulted in compromised employee information.
In a recently published statement, Airbus claimed they detected a cyber intrusion on Airbus "Commercial Aircraft business" information systems, resulting in unauthorized access to data. The aerospace giant recognized the need to comply with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and disclosed the breach to regulators within 72-hours of discovering the incident.
The investigation is currently ongoing, but they have confirmed personal data belonging to some Airbus employees in Europe was accessed. The employee data accessed was mostly professional contact and IT identification details.
Airbus staffs over 130,000 individuals worldwide. All employees have been instructed to "take all necessary precautions going forward", but there is currently no word on whether the intrusion was more serious in scope.
Airbus is the world's leading manufacturer of commercial aircraft for carries, delivering over 800 planes to 93 customers in 2018 alone. Experts have noted this could make the IP of great value to attackers. Airbus insists the attack has had "no impact" on its commercial operations.
According to a recent Verizon study, 94% of unauthorized data access comes through compromised servers. Knowing your assets and securing configurations for servers and networks devices deployed in your IT infrastructure has never been more important. Using hardening guidance from trusted sources like the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Benchmarks can help eliminate these types of security risks.
NNT is one of a handful of CIS Certified Vendors, providing CIS guidance straight out-of-the-box and leveraging these resources in our products to improve our customers' security posture. Since 2014 our flagship solution Change Tracker Gen7 R2 has been awarded CIS Security Software Certification for CIS Security Benchmarks across all Linux and Windows platforms, Unix and Database Systems, Applications and Web Servers.

Targeting Key Protein in CMT Type 2A May Be Basis of Future Therapies, Study Suggests
by Jose Marques Lopes, PhD
Researchers found that small molecules which target the key protein altered in patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A (CMT2A) may be a viable therapeutic approach and also improve other diseases with impaired mitochondrial health.
The study, "MFN2 agonists reverse mitochondrial defects in preclinical models of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A," appeared in the journal Science.
CMT2A is caused by mutations in the MFN2 gene, which provides instructions to make MFN2, a protein involved in the structure and mobility of mitochondria (the energy-producing part of cells), which are essential processes for healthy cells.
MFN2 is a dynamic protein and switches between closed and open conformations, depending on how closely its two domains, or sections, interact. The open conformation promotes mitochondrial fusion and can be induced by a peptide matching a small sequence of amino acids – the building blocks of proteins – of MFN2.
Mitochondria are dynamic structures and undergo either fusion or fission depending on the needs of the cell.
The scientists conducted experiments in genetically engineered cells without the proteins MFN2 or MFN1, which is also critical for mitochondrial health.
They observed that forcing the production of normal (or wild-type) MFN2 restored the mitochondria's length and fusion. However, promoting the production of an enzyme called PINK1 blocked these events.
The team then tested small molecules for their ability to promote mitochondrial fusion. They focused on those with identical amino acid sequences as mini-peptides with the critical serine at both phosphorylated (class A) and unphosphorylated (class B) states.
Phosphorylation is a process that alters the conformation of a protein, leading to its activation, deactivation, or changing its function.
Researchers hypothesized that adding both class A and B MFN1/2 agonists (activators) would increase mitochondrial fusion by acting on the two phosphorylation states.
After confirming their hypothesis, they created a new molecule combining class A and B features, called chimera B-A. This new molecule significantly induced mitochondrial fusion in cells without MFN2 and effectively reversed the changes in mitochondrial shape, called dysmorphometry, in neurons from mice with CMT2A.
Additional analyses revealed that these small molecules favored mitochondrial fusion by stabilizing an open conformation of MFN1 or MFN2.
Experiments in cells derived from mice demonstrated that small MFN1/2 agonists were only able to restore mitochondrial shape and function in mutant MFN2 when MFN1 was present.
Because MFN2 also regulates mitochondrial mobility along nerve fibers critically involved in CMT2A, the scientists evaluated the effects of these small MFN agonists in mitochondrial mobility. They found that the chimera B-A protein molecules restored mitochondrial mobility and normal shape in CMT2A mutant cells.
Then, in mice with CMT2A, researchers observed that the chimera B-A protein restored mitochondrial mobility in the sciatic nerve.
"We developed a novel small-molecule [MFN] agonist that reversed the neuronal mitochondrial dysmorphometry [abnormal shape] and impaired mobility evoked by two CMT2A Mfn2 mutants," the researchers wrote.
Besides its potential applicability for future CMT2A therapies, researchers hypothesized that patients with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's disease may also benefit from these findings.

Fractured Will Be Holding Another Free PvP Playtest This Weekend
January 11, 2021 Marc Marasigan	Comments
Dynamight Studios is hosting another Fractured free-to-play weekend hot on the heels their New Year PvP playtest the other week. Apparently, not enough players participated in the last one because of the holidays and the developers want to gather more feedback.
Aside from testing PvP mechanics and putting the servers through its paces, the developers are also looking to gather feedback on the recently-introduced client performance improvements. The changes are aimed lowering CPU and memory usage which should allow for more players on-screen without crashing on older computers.
"The issues some of you faced were mostly caused by memory (RAM) usage and CPU usage, rather than GPU usage. In fact, memory could become so bloated with 50+ players on the screen that it would cause disconnections on older computers!"
The playtest will kick off on January 15th at 5am PST and will be open to all registered users. Like the previous playtest, players will start characters with all 60 Talent Points and all existing abilities unlocked. They will also have access to all weapons, armor sets, and enchanting reagents and will be able to harvest from any resource node. To ensure that players get to really get a feel for the enchanting process, ore smelting, hide processing, and charcoal burning have been made almost instantaneous. The cost to claim land parcels have also been reduced to 200 gold and the cost to claim a city has been decreased to 1,000 gold.
The top players in 5 categories will also be rewarded with a Winter Alpha key while the highest ranking player in each category will get permanent access to the game. More information can be found on the Fractured official site.

Great Backyard Bird Count Should Be "Finchy" and Fun
Red-breasted Nuthatches and possibly Evening Grosbeaks will be highlights in North Carolina
Audubon Awarded Grants for Habitat Restoration at Pine Island Sanctuary, Cape Fear River

Audubon and Coalition Announce Conservation Plan for Currituck Marshes
Durham, NC, New York, NY, Ithaca, NY, and Port Rowan, ON (Feb. 4, 2019)—The 22nd Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) will take place from Friday, February 15 through Monday, February 18. Volunteers from around the world are invited to count the birds they see for at least 15 minutes on one or more days of the count, then enter their checklists at birdcount.org. Anyone with internet access can participate, no matter what their skill level—it's a great family activity, too.
"Counting birds is not only fun for people of all ages, it's important for understanding how our bird populations are doing," said Andrew Hutson, executive director of Audubon North Carolina and vice president of the National Audubon Society. "Just as canaries alerted coal miners to unsafe conditions, birds today tell us we need to protect more habitat and reduce carbon pollution, for the benefit of birds and people alike."

In the United States and Canada, 2019 bird lists are more likely to include sightings of winter finches and grosbeaks that are moving farther south than usual in what's called an "irruption." This type of movement is often sparked by poor cone, seed, and berry crops in parts of Canada.
"This year is a very exciting one for backyard birders in the East, headlined by the largest Evening Grosbeak movement in at least two decades," says the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's Marshall Iliff, a leader of the eBird program. "From Atlantic Canada to North Carolina, these colorful feeder visitors have been making a splash."
eBird collects bird observations globally every day of the year and is the online platform used by the GBBC.
This is also an above-average year for Red-breasted Nuthatches in North Carolina.
"The Great Backyard Bird Count is a great way for all bird watchers to contribute to a global database of bird populations," says Dr. Gary Langham, vice president and chief scientist for the National Audubon Society. "Participants in the Great Backyard Bird Count help scientists understand how things like climate change are impacting bird populations so we can better inform our conservation efforts."
During the 2018 count, bird watchers from more than 100 countries submitted more than 180,000 bird checklists reporting a record 6,456 species–more than half the known bird species in the world. In North Carolina, bird watchers submitted 3,980 checklists reporting 213 species. North Carolina ranked ninth among states in the total number of checklists submitted. Checklists represented 97 of 100 counties, with Wake County submitting the most at 528 checklists.
As a kickoff to the global Great Backyard Bird Count, Audubon North Carolina, Wake Audubon Society, and the City of Raleigh will hold a free, open-to-the-public event at Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh on Feb. 15. Following remarks by First Lady of North Carolina Kristin Cooper and National Audubon Society President and CEO David Yarnold, volunteers from Wake Audubon Society will lead groups on a 15-minute count of birds at Dorothea Dix Park. Participants are encouraged to register for the event here: http://bit.ly/dixparkGBBC.
To learn more about how to take part in the Great Backyard Bird Count, visit birdcount.org. The Great Backyard Bird Count is a joint project of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society with partner Bird Studies Canada and is made possible in part by founding sponsor Wild Birds Unlimited.

02.19.19 Charles A. Montorio-Archer '01 Named President and CEO of One Hope United
Charles A. Montorio-Archer '01, a New York nonprofit entrepreneur, child and family advocate, attorney, and author, has been named president and CEO of the Chicago-based One Hope United, one of the oldest and most respected human service nonprofits in the country. Montorio-Archer, the first African American CEO of the 124-year old organization, assumed the leadership position in January following a national search.
One Hope United is a private human service organization that offers a diverse array of prevention, intervention and community-based programs including early education, foster care, adoption, residential, and other support services.
Montorio-Archer co-founded The THRIVE Network in 1996 and served as its CEO for another 11 years before successfully merging the organization with The New York Foundling. THRIVE, as the merged organization is known today, is a $36 million nonprofit organization that assists individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities throughout New York City.
"Charles is a transformational leader who has demonstrated a passion for empowering all people to live with dignity and respect," said Theresa A. Dear, Board Chair of One Hope United, in a press release. "With his proven leadership, and his commitment to helping others reach their full potential, he is the ideal person to lead One Hope United to our next level of greatness as we work to help every child and family live life without limits."
"I am thrilled to become part of the One Hope United family and community," said Montorio-Archer. "When I began as a direct support professional in this industry over 25 years ago, I quickly recognized that, while our life circumstances may vary, we all want and deserve the same access to opportunity. That starts with the supports and services that One Hope United is so committed to providing— education, family support, a place to live and thrive, and connection to loved ones, as well as being recognized within our society. These are the building blocks to a life without limits, and I look forward to working with my new colleagues to help bring these to every child and family."
Montorio-Archer has written three books, most recently Everybody Paddles: A Leader's Blueprint for Creating A Unified Team, which provides a management model for reaching strategic alignment and accelerating organizational change through respect, collaboration and leadership. He holds a Bachelor of Science from Lincoln University, a Master's degree in Public Administration from CUNY Baruch College, a J.D. from Brooklyn Law School and a PhD in Public Policy from Walden University.
From 2001 to 2004, he served as Assistant District Attorney in Kings County, Brooklyn, NY. Then from 2004 to 2007, he served as the Associate Executive Director for the InterAgency Council of Developmental Disability Agencies, where he advocated at the city, state, and federal levels for program development, business sustainability, and policy and regulatory reform. In addition, he has served on numerous boards and has been featured on television, radio, print, and other media outlets.


I love finding dresses that combine the colours & patterns you wouldn't normally wear (i.e. red and green) with a fit and material so effortless you can't help but want to live in it. I've worn this number quite a few times this summer, and styled it both up (with a blazer and heels), and down (as pictured). While I like it both ways, this particular style is perfect for taking coffees to the beach and savouring what's left of the Christmas/New Year's break on one of those not-so-sunny days.
Ruby's AW 12 collection – 'Capital City' – is starting to drop at the end of this month (or so I've heard!). I've really been taken by the look book for this collection, as each look seems to have been put together particularly well. Every time I look through it I'm taken by yet another jumper or cute pair of pants. I love the interesting use of contrasting textiles in the pairing of fuzzy jumpers with metallic shorts, and the nice use of traditional winter colours (black, brown, grey) alongside bright splashes of pink, orange, and blue. These are a few of my favourite looks from the Capital City look book.

The Memorial Matthias Corvinus House is known as the oldest lay building in Cluj-Napoca, well preserved and having many functions along the time.
Built around XIV-XV th centuries in gothic style, it never belonged though to the Corvin family. Matthias Corvin, the son of Iancu of Hunedoara (great voivode of Transilvania and governor of Hungary), was born here by chance, when his pregnant mother sought shelter at the inn that functioned in the building. Since Matthias was born and spent a few of his first months of life here, the house was declared "The Memorial Matthias Corvinus House". More information here.
St. Michael's Church is one of the oldest and most appreciated Transylvanian monuments of gothic architecture. It stands majestically in the very heart of the town and was built between 1350 and 1487, probably immediately after the settlement had officially become a town, in 1316. The altar is the oldest part of nowadays' building, dating back to 1390 and measuring 24 meters.
The new-gothic style tower (1837-1859) is the last built. The latter measures 80 m, together with the 4-meter high cross. The nave of the church is 50 meters long and the walls – 10 meters high. The inside painting of the church is lost, however the restorations of the church revealed some very old and artful frescoes, dating from the XIV-XVth century. More information here.
The southern wall of the Calvaria Church has a built-in sundial that dates back from the XVth century, considered to be one of the oldest in Transylvania.
The site also hosts a chapel, built in 1831, and a belfry, designed in 1922 by the renowned Hungarian architect Karoly Koos. More information here.
The musem is hosted by the former Palace which was built by German architect Johann Eberhard Blaumann, between 1774 and 1785, for the governor of the city, Banffy Gyorgy.
The National Gallery offers a four-century synthesis of Romanian art with a stress on the artistic phenomenon in Transylvania: The Altar from Jimbor (16th century), art in the style of 1900, avant-guarde, artists related to "Scoala Superioara de Arte Frumoase" and to the "Art Center Cluj", such as Szolnay Sandor, Pericle Capidan, Catul Bogdan, Aurel Ciupe, Alexandru Popp, Romul Ladea and others. More information here.
Occupying 14 hectares of abrupt and hilly land in the south of the city, it is the largest green area of Cluj-Napoca, displaying a large variety of flora specific to every season. The Garden hosts the Botanical Institute, the Botanical Museum, a Herbarium, with over 650.000 exhibits, 3 hothouses, a Roman and a Japanese Garden. More information here.

Turzii Gorges were raised to the status of natural reserve since 1938. They represent the key with the highest vertical walls of the Apuseni Mountains.
The landscape is rich in caves, towering peaks, sinkholes and vertical walls. Overall there are about 60 caves, the largest reaching 120 m. Some of these caves were inhabited in ancient times (sec.V BC, Dacian-Roman), which is why they created the famous characters area (Balica, Anton) and gave birth to beautiful legends.

Some of these are the Keys of hell and Keys Mişcu, waterfalls Iadolina, Vălul Miresei, Moara Dracului, Săritoarea Bohodeiului and Săritoarea Ieduţului, with water falling from a height of 80 m.
Among the main attractions that are found in the heart of mountains there are the caves. The largest caves in these mountains are Vârfuraşu and Ferice, first measuring a length of 2,420 m (located near Pietrele Albe, in Valea Seacă) and the second sheltering the remains of cave bear (found in South – west of Stâna de Vale). More information here.
Fortress of Ponor is undoubtedly the most imposing carst phenomenon of Romania, recognized and appreciated throughout the world. Called the Romanian Speleology Everest, the carst complex Fortress of Ponor, reunites the most spectacular attractions such as: three potholes, a deep central cave, an intermittent spring and a river flowing through an underground tunnel 2 km long, connecting 14 lakes.

This natural objective can be visited both the surface and underground. Access can be made from Padis or the forest road that comes off the road Pietroasa – Padis. More information here.
Tarniţa was declared a protected area of county interest since 1994, by a decision of the Permanent Delegation of the Cluj County Council. Fântânele is included in the Natura 2000 Apuseni Site and Protected Area of the Western and National Interest "Apuseni Natural Park". Lacustrine area and the scenic surroundings with wooded slopes and rocky places, recommends that classification. More information here.

Is an FCE Exam Good or Bad for a Long Term Disability Insurance Claimant?
Are Functional Capacity Exams (FCE) in Long Term Disability Claims Good or Bad?
A Functional Capacity Exam (FCE) is often requested by a disability insurance company in order to determine a long term disability claimant's functional restrictions and limitations. There is a lot of debate about the pros and cons of FCE testing. When used in the right manner, the FCE can be a very valuable tool in supporting an individual's claim for long term disability benefits.
In this video, long term disability lawyers Gregory Dell and Stephen Jessup provide information about how FCE exams are used in long term disability insurance claims. We have been very successful in using FCE exam results to prove our client's disability. Contact any of our lawyers to discuss your disability benefit claim.
Hi, my name is Joe. I have been approved for long term disability since September 2016. I've been receiving checks every month. I've been asked to send in all medical record from February 2017 to present. But have one question back in January I enrolled for the silver plan in bcbs to start in February 1st. One day before it started I canceled it because I wanted to get a plan together with my wife's plan. She is a teacher assistant.
So on the first day of her job which is February 1st she finds out she can't add me. So I contact bibs and told them my situation and I wanted my policy to be re interested. They said it should not be a problem, but would take 3 weeks so 3 weeks pass and they told me to wait another 3 weeks and it should be reinsted. I had made my premium payment already. Even received the insurance cards. To make the story short. The couldn't reinstate me. Was send over to get insurance thru obamacare. Was able to get insurance in march to be active by April 1st. I couldn't get medical help for about 2 1/2 months until April once I got insurance and made appointments. I'm now on physical therapy and about to get an FCE done. Seen my physician and my chiropractor. I wanted to know if not being able to Se my physician and chiropractor for 2 1/2 months due to my insurance affect my long term disability benefits. Since their asking for all visits and notes since Feb 15th to present.
Joe, it can have an impact in the sense the insurance company may argue that you weren't under "reasonable care." However, it is not uncommon that changes in insurance or problems with insurance in general happen. I would suggest you advise the carrier that you had an issue securing health insurance, thus the delay in being able to get back into/afford treatment.

InfoEd is BMC's research grant proposal development, submission and tracking system - providing a system-to-system interface with grants.gov.
You must have a BMC user name and password, as well as an active BMC or BU e-mail account. If you do not have a BMC username, please contact BMC IT (617-414-4500) to obtain one. Once obtained, e-mail [email protected] to gain access to InfoEd.
If you plan to submit proposals through InfoEd to NIH, you must also have an active NIH eRA Commons user ID. If you do not have an eRA Commons user ID, please contact Robina Folland in Pre Award, 4-7536.
Obtain a Username and Password and train on the BMC electronic Proposal Development system, InfoEd.
Coordinate a time line for proposal submission.
What is the name and address for the authorized signatory?
How do I get an eRA commons name?
If you are a BMC Principal Investigator, please email the [email protected] website with the following information: Full Name, Department/Section, Phone Number and email address. If you don't get a response in two days, please contact your Grants and Contracts Office Grant Administrator.
Should my application go through the BMC Research Operations/Grants and Contracts Office (RO G&C) or the BU Office of Sponsored Programs (BU OSP)?
How far in advance of the Sponsor's deadline should I submit an application to the Grants and Contracts office for review, approval and submission?
Where do I get training for InfoEd?
Please contact [email protected] to inquire about training opportunities.
Who is my Proposal Development Specialist?
Please see the Research Operations Directory & Portfolio Distribution.
What internal documents need to be submitted to the grants office with the application?
Who do I need to complete conflict of interest (FCOI) forms for?
For new proposal and contracts, for non-competing continuations/progress reports, and for yearly amendments to contracts, FCOIs must be submitted for all "investigators" and key personnel listed on the BMC proposal (including non-key and unpaid personnel if they fit the FCOI definition of "investigator"). FCOIs do not need to be submitted for personnel listed on a subcontract to an outside institution if this institution has an existing conflict of interest policy.
I am a new investigator at BMC, is there anything I need to do before I submit a grant through the BMC grants office?
What is a cost-share and what needs to be done if one is proposed on the budget?
In general, a departmental account number must be provided on the proposal summary sheet for any costs required and shown on the application's budget but not requested from the sponsor. This includes "donating time/effort" and "in- kind contributions" on a project.
If Boston Medical Center is going to be a subcontract on an application submitted by another institution, what needs to be submitted to the BMC grants office?
At a minimum, we require a Letter of Intent (LOI), scope of work, detailed budget, budget justification, and BMC internal paperwork. The prime institution may also request biosketches, resources/facilities pages, letters of support, etc. You should coordinate with your collaborators at the prime institution to determine exactly what they require prior to submitting the paperwork to the BMC grants office.
Do I need to do anything if my budget proposes patient ancillary costs?
Any budgets proposing patient care costs should be forwarded to the Clinical Trial Office (CTO). We recommend you discuss patient ancillary costs with your Clinical Trial Financial Analyst; before you develop the budget.
What is the difference between a subcontract and a consultant?
Collaborator will perform work as part of an institutional appointment and utilize their institutional facilities such as, students, staff, patient population...etc.
Subcontract costs are excluded from BMC's indirect cost calculation in the budget.
BMC's indirect costs are applied to all consultant costs.
What is the earliest start date I can have for my budget?
Sponsor guidelines usually dictate what the earliest start date you can have for your budget as well as the length of the budget and project periods. You should review the sponsor guidelines carefully before developing the budget.
For NIH grants, the earliest start date is often dictated by the funding cycle in which the grant is submitted. We recommend reviewing the specific program announcement to confirm due dates and budget start dates. The standard funding cycle chart can be found below.
* Advisory Council Round for Cycle I applications may be August or October, and their earliest project start date may be September or December respectively.
Where can I find general research compliance information?
Who can be a Principal Investigator on a research proposal?
Boston Medical Center does not currently have a policy limiting who can be PI or apply for a grant, however approval and support is required from the applicable department/division.
When do I need to use the Facilities and Administrative (F&A) request reduction form?
The full F&A DHHS negotiated rates must be used on all applications, unless the sponsor has a posted a reduced rate. The exception is Industrial Clinical Trial budgets , which are usually 30%.
If the Investigator want to reduce the OH rate from the published rates, a F&A reduction form must be submitted to the Grants and Contracts Office at the start of the budget development process.
If the reduction request's OH loss is ≥ $25k over the life of the project, this form must be signed by the Department Chair, as well as the following individuals.
The full Facilities and Administrative Rate Policy can be found here.
How do I sign up to be on the Research Operations e-mail distribution list?
Please contact [email protected] to be added to the Research Operations distribution list.
Who is responsible for proposal and pre-award post submissions material? E.g. Just-In-Time, NIH post submission material?
All requests for pre-award post submission material must be reviewed by the Grants and Contracts Office prior to submission to the sponsor. At times the sponsor may directly contact the PI and Research Administrator. In order to better serve the research community we request that this information be forwarded to our office. We will be able to provide support and guidance on post-submission documentation prior to submission to the sponsor.
When do I need to complete an InfoEd entry?
What are some helpful hints for system to system electronic grant applications in InfoEd?
The PI of the application must be selected here.
DO NOT copy applications from an existing proposal in InfoEd. Even if you are resubmitting a grant that was previously developed in InfoEd, all applications must be created new.
Make sure the primary department is selected under "PI Departments". You may need to add this manually. Do NOT change the "Associated Department". This is the PI's division. If this in incorrect, please contact [email protected] to update.
Select "Budget by Total Project" as the budgeting model. It is easier to develop the budget using this scheme.
Todd Erceg should be selected as the Administrative Official and Authorized Representative. Click on the blank boxes and a drop down menu will appear. By selecting Todd, his information will automatically populate the boxes.
All key personnel/significant contributors must have their entire personal profiles filled out (including zip code).
Biosketches should be in the new NIH format with a personal statement.
No $ amounts or % effort should be listed on research support section.
Biosketches are typically limited to 4 pages, but special funding opportunities may limit it to 2 pages. Review the sponsor guidelines to confirm.
Certain fellowship/training applications require a different biosketch template for fellows/trainees. Review the guidelines for the specific fellowship to see if this applies to your application.
If you want to include a biosketch for a consultant, add them as a significant contributor in the personnel section. Their consultant fee (if applicable) should still be listed under non-personnel costs in the budget page.
Make sure Pubmed Central IDs are included in the PI biosketch and references section for any publications that are NIH-funded and authored/co- authored by the PI.
Make sure that eRA Commons username is listed in the Credential box for the PI. The application will not be accepted by NIH/AHRQ/CDC if this is omitted or incorrect.
Modular grants should have a budget justification for personnel only.
In applications using non-modular budgets, the subcontract justification should be added to the BMC justification and uploaded as one document. In applications using modular budgets, the subcontract justification should be uploaded as a separate document in the Consortium Justification.
What are some helpful hints for Generic sponsor applications?
Generic sponsor applications in InfoEd are a way to submit all other application types to the BMC grants office for review and approval. This includes, but is not limited to, foundation grants, federal electronic applications that can not be submitted system to system, paper applications, subcontract applications, etc.
If you have any questions whether an application should be developed using the system to system mechanism or generic sponsors, please contract your PDS.
Components of the application must be uploaded in the Internal Documents tab for us to retrieve and review.
The budget tab of the generic sponsor template must be completed even if a separate budget page is uploaded in the Internal Documents tab.
When completing an Adobe package for federal applications that cannot be submitted system to system thru InfoEd, do not include spaces, numbers, or special characters in attachment filenames. Using underscores is OK. Also, all attachments in Adobe grants package must be converted to PDFs.
If BMC is a subcontract, the proposal sponsor should be set as the prime institution (eg. Children's Hospital) in InfoEd. The originating sponsor (e.g. NIH) can be set on the setup questions page, once the question "Is this a flow through Project?" is marked "yes".

With Rego commissioners can make it quicker and easier for GPs to refer their patients to suitable providers.
All you need to do is choose the type of referral you want. The relevant details are seamlessly transferred from your patient management software. With inbuilt pathway logic, you are only asked the relevant questions. Saving you from completing unnecessary boxes on a generic form..
We then analyse the referral information and list the available services together with distances and waiting times and taking into account locally agreed guidance. Giving the GP their referral options in the blink of an eye.
After they pick an option, we place the referral with the provider either directly or via eRS. They receive all the relevant information that our system has checked for errors, without mailing any letters back-and-forth.
Rego gives a choice of both hospital and local services where suitable.
The generated list of CCG approved providers will be displayed according to their distance from the patient and their waiting time. Patients can then choose the community service that's available down the road in 2 weeks, instead of waiting 6-18 weeks for a hospital appointment across town.
By this method, the patient takes an active role in deciding how they're treated, whilst making a decision that's often best for everyone.
After the referral is made, the patient, the provider and the GP can all track it through a secure online dashboard. With the status clearly visible they can skip the endless phone calls to keep each other up to date.
Working with Rego your eRS experience will be seamless. We are often described as a skin on eRS.
We automatically transfer appropriate referrals via eRS. For pathways it doesn't cover such as referrals to a physio, we manage the whole process end-to-end.
Want to bring consistency to your referrals?
Talk to one of our team to find out why the Rego the right choice for your CCG.


Dr. Blake Kalkstein is a chiropractor based in Baltimore, Maryland. He runs a clinic with his father, Dr. Jeff, and brother, Dr. Warren, who are also chiropractors in Towson, Maryland called Adolph & Kalkstein Chiropractic. It's a 5000 sq. ft clinic that seems small considering the bulk of patients that they see every day. Their chiropractic group is part of the rehabilitation and performance team of the Baltimore Orioles. Take a listen as we discuss how it looks like being in a major league baseball rehab team and the transformation of how people perceive chiropractic as a practice.
· As a family of chiropractors starting with his dad who has seen generations of patients and trends, what's their perspective of the future of chiropractic.
· How a well-experienced chiropractor would fare in a major league rehab and performance team of Physical therapists, Orthopedics and Certified Athletic coaches.
· What sets the chiropractors apart with the rest of the team in terms of practice.
· How chiropractic is perceived now compared before.
· Working in an environment that specializes in rehab and performance but otherwise have different practices "ups your game". You learn new skills and new ways to injury management, acute care and triaging.
· Chiropractors are good at treating the spine as compared with other care providers as they do adjustments and has more hands-on experience when it comes to the spine.
· There is not much difference with the examination skills of physical therapists and athletic trainers.
· There's a perception that chiros do not have the examination or rehabilitation skills of a PT or other specialties but that is slowly changing as chiropractic is now more accessible to people especially the younger generations.
· Identify your obstacles for success and transform them into opportunities. Apply structured problem solving by writing what the problem is.
Dr. Kalkstein is willing to help anyone identify their obstacles for success for free by "Listening intently!" You can contact him at bkalksteindc@gmail.com and be sure to write the subject line, "Listen Intently".

Jacks Peak County Park is the highest point on the Monterey Peninsula. The park encompasses about 525 acres including 8.5 miles of hiking and riding trails. After the recent rains the trails were littered with pine needles and pine cones, there were fallen trees and a lot of others that seemed to be balancing quite precariously on the small cliffs running alongside the paths. It was green and lush though and the kids did great on the 2+ miles of trails we hiked.
Marisol at the halfway point: "I don't like Jack because I can't like his peak".
Information about Jacks Peak can be found here and a map complete with hiking trails is here.
