A common notion that many campers have is that it is not possible to go for cold weather camping, and even if you choose to do it; you will have a heck of a hard time. However, the truth of the matter is that it is possible as long as you have the right gear and you do proper planning. In fact, camping during winter can be a fun way of taking a break from your hectic schedule. Here are some winter camping tips that you need to know.
6. Sleep with your boots in the sleeping bag.
The most important thing when thinking of winter camping is preparation. Before you even go on a camping trip, take the time to check the weather. Find out the expected high and low temperature and if there are any storms expected. Make the right choice of a camping location where you can easily reach, and have enough time to organize your camping site. No matter what the weatherman says, prepare for extreme conditions.
Lighting equipment. These could include headlamps, lanterns, candles and extra batteries.
Portable power pack. In the winter weather, all electronics will lose power faster. Therefore, it is advisable to carry with you a portable power pack.
When camping in winter, carry with you a small shovel that will help to clear the snow at the campsite. Dig an area in the snow to shield you from the wind. By packing down snow under the tent, you will have an even sleeping surface. Make sure you get to the camping site at least 2 hours before sunset so that it doesn't get dark as you still prepare your site. Carry with you a tarp that will cover anything that will remain outside in case it snows. When choosing a camping site, avoid tree branches that are heavy with snow.
You do not have to carry fresh water when there is a lot of snow outside. If you would like to keep your backpack light when doing cold weather backpacking, carry the necessary water treatment and melt the snow instead of carrying water. But make sure you boil the snow after melting it to get rid of dirt and bacteria.
Remember to carry clothing that will keep you warm. These include a warm jacket, thermal underwear, wool socks, warm boots, and gloves. You can dress in layers to regulate your body temperature and this can make a lot of differences in temperatures that are extremely cold. It is important to not only dress for the cold weather but to also maintain your body heat.
Avoid clothes that are made of cotton and instead choose merino or synthetic base layers. One advantage of wool is that it is a great choice for keeping you warm and also for trapping heat. This makes it the right choice for the damp conditions.
Wear boots that are waterproof and whose soles have great traction for the snowy trails. Avoid leaving the boots in the tent vestibule as they will be frozen in the morning. If the boots have a removable liner, keep the inner boots on your feet and the outer boot close to your sleeping bag. Otherwise, you should wrap the boots in a plastic bag and place them inside the sleeping bag.
The choice of a tent is a great consideration when camping in cold weather. One of the winter camping ideas is to choose a 4 –season tent. This can be quite helpful on that extreme winter weather. Choose the double-wall tents as these are warmer and can provide better ventilation which will translate into less condensation. This will also help you to avoid snowflakes or water drops over the sleeping bags. Bear in mind that it is better to sleep on the snow rather than the ice or rocks. This will provide you with a comfortable sleeping surface. Since snow is a bad conductor of heat it is also a good insulator.
One of the winter camping hacks that will help to keep you warm is to make a fire. Ensure that you have carried enough wood as it can get really cold in the winter weather. In most camping sites, winter is offseason and this means there may be no wood available for sale. To prevent the fire from collapsing due to the melting snow, make a hole or make use of a fire pan.
An important thing is to understand is how to insulate a tent for winter camping. In order to get that extra warmth, make sure to have a foam pad under the inflatable sleeping pad. This can also act as a seat as it will not get soggy during the snow. It is also advisable to know the temperature you expect and carry a sleeping bag that is rated for camping in the winter. To get that extra layer of warmth, make sure that your sleeping bag has that a liner.
It can take time to warm up the cold sleeping bag if the only source of warmth is your body heat. This is why it may be advisable to do some prior warming. You can do that by boiling water and putting it in a tight container. Allow the water to cool down and double check that the container is completely sealed. Place the container in the sleeping bag for a period of 20 minutes prior to going to bed. This heat will make going to bed at night to be more enjoyable. Alternatively, you can chuck hand warmers in your sleeping bag before going to bed.
If you are doing cold weather camping with your buddy, put your friend's sleeping bag close to yours. Body to body warming can be effective in helping your remain warm in those cold weather conditions. For better insulation, put the sacks containing your stuff and any extra gear around the inside perimeter for the purpose of further insulation. You can create that radiant barrier by duct taping the space blanket. In case there is excessive condensation inside your tent, you can avoid using the space blanket. A lot of moisture will do harm to your camping gear.
If you breathe in the sleeping bag, that moisture will remain trapped inside. This is why you should not burrow or breathe inside the bag. A good idea would be to cinch the draft collar before closing the hood down the nose and mouth. This will ensure that you have a blowhole through which you can breathe. This is particularly important if you are using the down sleeping bag. Bear in mind that a down bag will be killed by condensation. A wet bag has the ability to lose insulation and can take time before drying. This can serve to dampen the adventure.
One of the winter camping basics is to use a lithium battery in all your electronic gadgets. One advantage of lithium batteries is that they work consistently in cold conditions and will continue working in lower temperatures. This is on top of the fact that they weigh less and last longer. These are usually the best batteries for camping in winter.
When you get cold, you will have that desire to urinate more often. It can be quite inconveniencing disrobing and undoing the sleeping bag at 0 degrees F. If you are a woman, you should consider the various accessories that can make it possible for you to pee while standing. By having a well-marked pee bottle, you will remain warm and this will be quite convenient for you. Make sure you do not confuse the pee bottle by marking it well. Therefore, carry your pee bottle when cold weather backpacking.
A common mistake that campers make is to think that when the weather gets cold, all they need to do is to take every blanket, rug or sleeping bag and layer it on top. This is not always a wise decision. You should not underestimate the amount of heat that is lost below the ground. Your heat is absorbed by the cold weather and there is a need for a good roll mat. Avoid wearing all the clothes you have; In fact, it is wiser to wear less as you will have nothing to warm you in the morning.
The outer shell that acts as the waterproof, windproof and a breathable layer to protect you from the weather.
Most of the winter clothing is usually voluminous and this is why you need to make the right choice of a backpack for winter camping and hiking adventure. Choose a backpack that is big enough to fit all your necessities while at the same time remaining light.
This will ensure that pouring the water you make from snow is easier and less messy. In case it is already freezing cold on the outside, use some insulating cover for the water bottle and keep it upside down to prevent the lid from freezing shut. You can also wrap the bottle in warm clothes before storing it in your backpack.
Almost half of the body water is lost through the head in cold weather camping. To keep your feet and fingers warm, wear toe and hand warmers. While outside, you should wear a windproof hat. On the inside, a knitted hat will keep you warm. Also, carry a pair of gloves with you. It can be quite difficult for you to do anything with your hands cold.
Your body will require a lot of fuel to generate heat when camping in the snow. A good hot meal that is rich in carbs and fat can go a long way in regulating your body temperature before going to bed.
Many campers avoid drinking water while camping in cold weather because of the cold. They forget that the dry weather will cause them to lose a lot of water while breathing. This is definitely among the key cold weather camping trips. Therefore, make water to be part of your meal.
The cold winter weather can cause you a lot of discomforts. However, if you are a survivalist, this can be a good challenge for you. As long as you are well prepared and understand what you are doing, you can have a good understanding of what you can do and what your limits are. Even though pitching the tent in the cold winter months is not every person's idea of having fun, it can still be comfortable and enjoyable. The key thing is to ensure that you are well prepared and have carried with you enough camping gear. Use the above tips to understand how to winter camp.


A symbiotic robotic system consists of a robot, a human, and a (smart) environment that cooperate symbiotically to perform a task. While the possibility of cooperating with the smart environment and with humans might greatly simplify the execution of robotic tasks, it also presents new challenges that open new research directions. In this article, we claim that symbiotic robotic systems will constitute a dominant new paradigm in the future of autonomous robotics, and discuss the corresponding potential and scientific challenges.

El Divertimento n.º 11 en re mayor, K. 251, es una composición de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Fue escrito en el mes de julio de 1776 en Salzburgo, posiblemente para la onomástica de la hermana de Mozart, Nannerl, el 26 de julio o para su cumpleaños el 30 de julio.

Instrumentación

La obra está escrita para oboe, dos trompas, dos violines, viola y contrabajo.

Estructura

Consta de seis movimientos:

I. Molto allegro
II. Menuetto
III. Andantino
IV. Menuetto (Tema con variazioni)
V. Rondo (Allegro assai)
VI. Marcia alla francese

El movimiento inicial está escrito en forma sonata monotemática en la que en lugar del verdadero segundo sujeto en la tonalidad de la dominante (la mayor), el primer sujeto aparece en la menor. El trio del primer minueto está compuesto solo para cuerdas y el tercer movimiento, de tempo Andantino, está en forma rondó. El cuarto movimiento es una inusual mezcla de minueto y forma variaciones. Aquí, las tres veriaciones sirven como los "tríos", con el tema del minueto volviendo da capo después de cada variación. La primera de estas variaciones se caracteriza por el oboe solo, la segunda por el violín solo y en la tercera, la melodía de la segunda fluye bajo el tema. Las trompas no participan en ninguna de las variaciones.

Antony Hegarty Is the First Trans Person to Be Nominated for an Academy Award
Filed to: academy awardsFiled to: academy awards
antony hegarty
The 2016 Academy Award nominations didn't have to be so white, straight, and boring. Tangerine, Straight Outta Compton, The Danish Girl, and Carol—four films with major buzz—all had the potential to diversify the kinds of stories recognized by Hollywood's most prestigious honor. While none of these films received any major recognition (except for The Danish Girl and Carol in the acting categories), history was still made on Thursday.
Antony Hegarty, the vocalist for Antony and the Johnsons, received a nomination for Best Original Song for "Manta Ray," from documentary Racing Extinction. The nomination appears to be a first time a trans person has been recognized in the history of the awards.
Laverne Cox had actively stumped for Tangerine actresses Mya Taylor (the first trans actress to be nominated for an Emmy) and Kitana Kiki Rodriguez. Their nomination would have been especially notable, in that they would be eligible for Best Actress or Best Supporting Actress—a gender-based category.
"Most of the fabulous trans roles that have won people Oscars, we didn't get to play," Cox said in an interview with Variety. "A lot of folks have said we're not trained enough and that we're not prepared to do whatever. It becomes a catch-22."
Still, Hegarty's nomination is some consolation. The singer has been active advocate of transfeminism and has been vocal about the media's coverage of her gender.
"I leave it up to others to decide what pronoun to use," she said in an email to Flavorwire. "My closest friends and family use feminine pronouns for me. I have not mandated the press do one thing or another... In my personal life I prefer 'she'. I think words are important. To call a person by their chosen gender is to honor their spirit, their life and contribution. 'He' is an invisible pronoun for me, it negates me."
Listen to the nominated song below.
Correction: According to a Jezebel commenter, Hegarty is actually the second trans person to be nominated. Bortlb writes:
I thought she was the first until I did a little digging. The only other trans person I can find who was nominated is Angela Morley, a composer who transitioned in the early 1970s and underwent gender reassignment surgery in 1972. Two years later, she was nominated for Stanley Donen's The Little Prince and then The Slipper and the Rose two years after that. She also composed the vast majority of the score to Watership Down, which is seminal. I haven't been able to find any information about anyone preceding or following her. But that it would be 30 years between Morley and Antony is pretty crazy.

Q: why do i need wait after assert in VHDL? I've started learning VHDL, and on EdaPlayground there's always a wait; after assert(cond); in the testing file.
Could you please explain why do i need a wait; in the end? From my point of view, it should terminate right after execution, but it doesn't (and instead of terminating it lands into an infinite loop).
Here is the architecture i want to test :
use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;

entity minority is
port(
  a: in std_logic;
  b: in std_logic;
  c: in std_logic;
  y: out std_logic
  );
end minority;

architecture impl of minority is
begin
   y <= '1' when (a and b and c) else '0';
end impl;

Here is the code for testing :
use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;

entity testbench is
-- empty
end testbench;

architecture tb of testbench is

-- DUT component
component minority is
port(
  a: in std_logic;
  b: in std_logic;
  c: in std_logic;
  y: out std_logic
  );
end component;

signal a1, b1, c1, y1: std_logic;

begin
  -- Connect DUT
  DUT: minority port map(a1, b1, c1, y1);

  process
  begin
    a1 <= '0';
    b1 <= '1';
    c1 <= '0';
    y1 <= '0';
    wait for 1 ns;
    assert(y1='0') report "Y is ok." severity error;
    wait; -- <-- without this line, the test starts to execute infinitely :(
  end process;
end tb;

Thank you for your answers!

A: VHDL is a hardware description language. The VHDL process is a key part of it. Hardware doesn't just stop. Therefore, VHDL processes don't just stop, either; they keep on going, just like hardware does.
If you want to use a process for something other than hardware design (ie you are not going to synthesise it) and you want it to only run once, then you are going to have make it stop. You do that by adding a wait statement, because in VHDL, a wait on its own means wait forever.

Nicola Sturgeon says SNP would continue small business bonus scheme
March 18 2016, 1.25pm Updated: April 23 2016, 5.19pm
A Scottish Government initiative that has saved small firms more than £1 billion in rates charges will be continued for the next five years if the SNP is returned to power at Holyrood, the First Minister pledged.
Nicola Sturgeon said her administration would "continue to champion small businesses" during the current "challenging time" for many firms.
She also pledged a review of business rates, which is to be chaired by former RBS Scotland chair Ken Barclay, would be "revenue neutral" and would not be "an exercise in increasing tax".
Instead, she said this work, which is to be completed by the summer of 2017, is "about ensuring tax is fair and balanced".
The First Minister also promised there would be an announcement in the "not too distant future" about efforts to ensure high-speed rail comes to Scotland.
Ms Sturgeon, who was speaking at the Federation of Small Businesses' annual conference in Glasgow, said the review of business rates would consider how the charge could better support growth and respond to wider conditions in the economy and changing circumstances.
She added: "The small business bonus will be continued if this government is re-elected for the duration of the next parliament, that means it will stay in place at least until 2021."
The SNP administration at Holyrood set up the scheme, which cuts rates bills for smaller businesses with the smallest firms paying nothing, in 2008.
Ms Sturgeon told the conference: "As a result of the small business bonus scheme, almost 100,000 small business premises in Scotland now pay no business rates or reduced business rates.
"In the current financial year that has reduced taxation for small businesses by £170 million, an average of more than £1,500 per property.
"In total, since the scheme was introduced the small business bonus has saved businesses more than £1 billion."
Despite that, there are still "some aspects of the business rate system" which firms are concerned about, she said.
"There is a case for making changes and we recognise that case," Ms Sturgeon said.
"We announced last December we will conduct a review of business rates to ensure the system is as fair and as effective as possible.
"I can confirm today that Ken Barclay, the former chair of RBS Scotland, has agreed to chair the review commission for us."
Another guiding principle for this is the Scottish Government ambition that "Scotland should strive to be the best place anywhere in the UK for businesses to start up, to do business and to succeed".
Mr Barclay said he is "delighted" to have been asked to chair the review, stating: "This will be a detailed examination of the Scottish business rates system and I look forward to listening to the businesses who pay rates to hear their views.
"My aim is to identify a series of recommendations that seek to enhance and reform the system to better-support business growth and reflect the economic importance of rates and changing marketplaces."

The coach is responsible to make sure that the opposing coach signed their affidavit with the innings pitched of each of their players after each game. If a coach loses an affidavit and doesn't bring it to the plate conference then the penalty is that no player can pitch more than 2 innings in that game for their team. If a new affidavit can be made up per the tournament committees coordination of previous games then we will make every effort to do so without penalties.

On a day that will go down as one of the darkest in Rangers' history to date, Hitthebyline can reveal what could prove to be a shining light at the end of a tunnel of turmoil for the club.
A Hitthebyline insider has had advanced discussions with Jim McColl OBE, who has expressed a desire to end the disastrous reign of Craig Whyte.
Jim McColl - The saviour of Rangers?
Last month, McColl was mentioned by former Rangers director Paul Murray as being a key figure in a potential consortium to mount a takeover bid. However, it would seem since then that McColl has had a change of heart, and would now like to champion the takeover on his own, (as our insider learned at the weekend while speaking to him at a local golf outing).
McColl is understood to be watching intently and mulling over his options as he looks to become the successor to Craig Whyte, and ultimately end the suffering of the Ibrox faithful.
The Carmunnock born businessman has a reported fortune of over £800m, with a far more transparent and upstanding reputation than the clandestine Mr Whyte. The Daily Record reported in November of 2008 that McColl had overtaken Tom Hunter as Scotland's richest man, and with recognition in the Queen's Birthday Honors list of 2001, Rangers would be inclined to put to put their faith in the seemingly upstanding businessman, should any takeover bid emerge.
As a lifelong Rangers fan, McColl has long been rumoured to enter into financial involvement with his boyhood heroes. In 2010, the Sunday Herald also reported that he was to be the bankroller of a Rangers Supporters Trust takeover bid, which was to make the club wholly owned by the supporters (in a similar setup to how Barcelona currently operate). This has since proved to be not entirely true, but the multimillionaire conceded to the fact he was providing financial advice to the supporters trust.
In this age of uncertainty for the Glasgow giants, it remains to be seen whether the successful entrepreneur will firm up his interest in the club. With his interest in the club now declared, all eyes will now be on him to see when and if he takes the next step.
If ever there was a time in your life that could write yourself into the folklore of Glasgow Rangers FC, the team you love, it is now. Struth, McPhail, Waddle, Wallace, Greig, Baxter, Stein, Smith, McCoist, McCulloch and all we need now is a McColl.
IF IT WASN'T FOR ME THERE WOULD BE NO RANGERS !!
whoever trusted whyte in the first place should be shot…ps im not a rangers fan….
Sound like the Man Glasgow Rangers need to help them Keep their 140 year History and Remain World Champions in League Titles WON 54.
In the long run, when you have a team that can fill the stands full of fans like they did for the Legend's match (47,000), it would be a great financial move. If you love football, it needs to be noted, there will be no Scottish football without the Rangers. Under the right leadership and managment the Rangers along with the fans have made a loud statement that this can be turned around. For the Love of the Game!
plz we need a good rangers man with money!!!!!


The decision was made and the date was finalised considering the availability of the doctors. We were been asked in case we wanted some specific day or time, Pitru Paksha had also just started. Honestly, such a thought never ever crossed our mind. We just said we want a healthy baby.
We had already booked a room for us in one of the leading maternity hospitals considering they have all the facilities and in case of an emergency, it would easier for our Gynaecologist. It was been suggested by Doctor Mam considering my case history.
So, the next two days passed reading about the procedure. I spoke to my father just the day before I was going to get operated and cried like a small baby.
That time I was a child for my father and would-be-mother to my baby.
Those comforting words calmed me down.
I could hardly eat that day. My husband and Ma (mother-in-law) reached home, some light food was made. I wasn't able to eat. We packed some food and left for the hospital. I was getting admitted in the night so we could finish the paperwork in advance. The next morning we kept only for the C-Section. Nothing else to be done. No paperwork. My mother-in-law decided to stay overnight with me. I had hardly eaten anything. Everyone else was anxious too. We took some pastries on the way to add some cheer on our tensed faces.
On reaching the hospital the initial formalities took some time. Some tests had to be done and I was been given a deadline that I can have food till another 30 mins and water till 12 am and then nothing. When everything got completed my husband left for home. The night was long enough, I could not sleep well. I just kept talking to my baby and imaging how will the baby look like. Of all the days and nights in my pregnancy, this was arguably the toughest.
This sounds like a really tough time. Just the thought of surgery is scary, so I can imagine what you must have gone through. You write so well, Manisha. You take us through it all with your words.
Oh! Manisha I am reliving the night before delivery via this post. Though mine was not a surgery but I had complications of high BP and higher pulse rate.
Waiting for next post to read.

Watch Seekers Underground on tonton
If there is something we are often scared of yet intrigued and curious about it would be the unexplained paranormal phenomena... a place where the supernatural realm transcends our natural physical laws...
Many people, both young and old are fascinated by this... thus the popularity of ghost stories, or tales of the supernatural...including, yours truly and her daughter...
Some people who are skeptics , might pooh -pooh these hauntings as nothing more than tricks of the mind, delusions or hoaxes, while some others believe in the existence of these beings.. my youngest daughter is one of those who has seen these entities, but peaceful normal ones... and so has my husband... as they seem to have the sixth sense... some however might have had horrifying and scary encounters with these restless and upset- for-whatever reason/ not-at-peace entities...
I was over at the TGV luxe where tonton launched the latest season of local paranormal investigation team Seekers Underground... after the team has traveled and investigated the shadowlands of our country.... in places in Kedah, Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Johor and Kelantan where hauntings and sightings had been reported....
You can watch these investigations and findings in the 15 episode Seekers Underground that premiered on 11th November 2016 and is currently showcased every Friday over tonton, Malaysia's number 1 online portal...
We had to ring a bell to get our tickets from a mini haunted picture booth where a pocong was loitering outside... and another would open a hidden window to pop out to hand over tickets to us...
Then we were ushered to Chill X room where it had been blacked out and where a couple of puntianak and a few pocong roamed among invited guests and members of the media...
We then were ushered into the Luxe cinema to watch episode 4 where the Seekers team explored an abandoned teacher's quarters in Kedah where the occupants have seemed to have left the place in a hurry, leaving some belongings behind as well...
...and that place was definitely very 'keras'/haunted considering a member of the team sensed the presence of a child sitting at the swing in the playground, and another member of the team felt uncomfortable and felt something breathing heavily into his ears and trying to make contact.. there was a couple of volunteers, on which was shoved to the ground after he dared the entities to enter him and another, a woman who was so extremely frightened and vulnerable that she was actually possessed twice...
The thing was we were watching it in the cinema with the pocongs and puntianaks around in the cinema too...
The series is a spin-off of ntv7's Seekers which became a household name in Malaysia, being the first and only local paranormal programme . Seekers Underground team consists of paranormal researcher and professional photographer, Syai, and physic, Amir, who has the sixth sense and the ability to see and communicate with spirits... The duo will also collaborate with other local paranormal groups to gain access to new and rare haunted locations.
At the beginning of every investigation, the pair will learn about the history of the place and gather information from people who have reported the sightings. They will then investigate using cutting-edge equipment such as an infrared digital thermometer, a full spectrum digital camera, a go pro with ultraviolet light and 360 mechanism, a sound recorder tape , mcp with infrared camera to shoot the experience in HD
So , be sure you tune in to tonton every Friday to watch Seekers Underground share some of their most chilling experiences ever on their ghost hunting spree....
Keep your eyes and ears out too as it has been confirmed that the versatile and handsome actor Arja Lee will also be one of the volunteers to get up close and personal with the supernatural....
Sign up for tonton VIP package to catch all episodes of these three tonton exclusives only on tonton... the VIP subscription starts from RM3 for a daily /24 hour access pass... RM5 for a weekly/ 7 day access pass, RM10 for a monthly/30 day access pass or RM96 for an annual pass /1 year access pass.... yup... I recommend taking the one year pass as it is much cheaper...

Teaching the Genome Generation™ is a one-week, residential, professional development short course in genomics, bioinformatics, and ethics for high school science teachers.
Teaching the Genome Generation™ (TtGG) provides high school teachers the content knowledge, teaching strategies, and resources needed to enhance student learning in genomics and personalized medicine. This course will provide instruction in the molecular genetics of personalized medicine, use of bioinformatics tools, and discussion of the ethics of genetics research. In the end, teachers will develop lessons designed for their unique school environment and resources.
One course will be offered this year and is open to high school teachers. Because the primary goal of this NIH-funded program is to enhance genomics instruction in New England, admissions preference will be given to life sciences teachers from New England states (CT, MA, ME, NH, RI, VT). The course will be held Sunday, June 23 to Friday, June 28, 2019 at Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine.
TtGG™ is a hands-on and immersive professional development program. Molecular biology and bioinformatics experiments will be performed by teachers in the research laboratory. Lively discussions of social, ethical, and legal topics in personal genetics will be woven into all aspects of the course. In each subject area (molecular genetics, bioinformatics, ethics), teachers will be provided training and inquiry-based lessons that can be implemented in their biology classes. Ongoing support and consultation from course faculty during the subsequent academic year will be provided in order to support curricular integration of course learning goals.
Tuition: Admitted participants from New England are covered by NIH funds and the cost to attend is $0, including on-campus room and board. Admitted participants from outside of New England are not covered by NIH funds and the cost to attend is $250, including on-campus room and board.
Stipend: Admitted participants from New England will receive a professional development stipend of $500. An additional stipend of $500 will be paid to teachers who continue to partner with TtGG through the subsequent academic year.
Contact hours: A certificate of 40+ contact hours will be conferred to all participants.
For more information, please see the Jax news profile of Teaching the Genome Generation™, including video interviews with faculty and current participants.
This project is supported by the NIH / National Institute of General Medical Sciences under Award Number R25GM129169. The content is solely the responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily represent the official views of the National Institutes of Health.
Thorne is Bowdoin College's full-service dining room. Grab breakfast and we will meet, informally, at several tables in the Thorne dining room.
Participant introductions and overview of course goals and aims. This session provides an overview of three course strands: molecular genetics, bioinformatics, and ethical, legal, social issues in genetics.
Debrief of the day's activities; prep for tomorrow.
Get to know your cohort with dinner altogether!
Introduction to the ethical, legal, and social issues inherent to genomics research.
Overview and demonstration of a hands-on activity describing Sanger sequencing.
The Short Read Sequencing Game!
The guest speaker will be announced in this space, at a later date.
Participants work alone or in small groups to integrate TtGG into new or existing curricula.
Continued curriculum / unit / lesson plan development.
Working groups will present how they plan to implement TtGG into their courses.
Check out of on-campus housing.
Participants will be assigned on-campus or near-campus housing at Bowdoin College, at no cost to the participant. Each participant will be assigned a private bedroom and shared bathroom in a house or residence hall environment with other professional participants. Participants interested in family housing, or who require specific services, should secure independent hotel accommodations. Participants who choose off-campus housing are eligible to be reimbursed for their housing costs not to exceed the on-campus rate.
Several hotels in the Brunswick area offer 'Bowdoin rates'. Please call the individual properties to inquire.
Selected participants will be given the opportunity to participate in a ride-share to the PD short course. Individuals who opt-in to the ride share may coordinate the ride share prior to the short course. Ride sharing may be a convenient option for participants coming from CT or Northern ME.
Portland International Jetport is a 30 minute drive to Bowdoin College, site of the course.
Directions to Bowdoin College are available on the Bowdoin website.
Course sessions will be held in Druckenmiller Hall (31 on Campus Map), Hatch Science Library (32), and Kanbar Hall (30). Meals will be served in Thorne Dining Hall (68).
Most course participants will commute by foot between their housing assignment and the Bowdoin campus. Specific housing assignments will be determined and communicated to confirmed participants in late Spring 2019. Course participants driving in from a local hotel should plan to park in the parking lot adjacent to Druckenmiller Hall, accessible from Sills Drive. Parking in the Druckenmiller lot is available for free and no parking pass is required.
Information on Brunswick-area restaurants and lodging is available on the Bowdoin website.
Information on recreational activities in Brunswick and mid-coast Maine is available on the Bowdoin website.

How Much Do School Counselors Make In California?
How much do school counselors make in California? In California, school counselors make on average $65.000. Top paid counselors can get as high as $ 120.000, and the lowest salaries can be as low as $ 38.000 per year. The type of school, experience, and location influence how high the salary will be.
In California, the salary of a school counselor can vary greatly depending on the personal education, experience, school, and location. However, California is one of the U.S. states where school counselors get one of the highest salaries. The top 25% of counselors get a salary reaching $80.000 per year.
This is pretty good compared to Wyoming, which is one of the lowest-paying states, with an average salary of $65.000 per year. Student counselors have several duties in the school, including providing academic planning to students, help students in setting their goals, long term and short-term support for students in need.
Counselors play a big role in working with families, teachers, and the community to ensure students succeed. They can attend education plan meetings and students related meetings to help and advise.
Counselors are supposed to figure out the student's issues and work with all resources available to resolve them.
How To Become a School Counselor?
To become a school counselor, a person needs to gain a bachelor's degree, a four-year program. Subjects studied are general psychology, sociology, and similar related topics. After a bachelor's degree, students need to gain a master's degree in school counseling. The master's degree program takes two to three years to complete. However, the best programs are flexible, teach modern schools and students, and include studies in social justice, diversity, and more.
During their master's degree programs, students are required to gain clinical and practical experience, typically under supervision. In addition, they are supposed to do several hundred hours of supervised internship.
Once everything is done up to this point, a person can now apply to get the license and start working. But, again, the process varies from state to state.
School counselors are paid well?
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a school counselor's median annual salary is $56,310. The lowest 10 percent earn less than $33,610 while the highest 10 percent earn more than $94,690. ZipRecruiter.com reports that the average salary for school counselors varies by state, from $46,458 up to $65,301.

Is being a school counselor a good career choice?
Employees will be happier if there is a low level of stress, a good work/life balance, solid prospects to get promoted, and higher pay. Here are the School Counselors' job satisfaction ratings in terms of up-and-down- mobility, stress level, flexibility.
Is it stressful to be a school counselor?
As a part of their work, school counselors often incur high levels of stress that may result from multiple job responsibilities, role ambiguity, high caseloads, limited resources for coping and limited clinical supervision (DeMato & Curcio, 2004; Lambie, 2007; McCarthy, Kerne, Calfa, Lambert, & Guzmán, 2010).
Are school counselors or teachers more financially successful?
Counselors often earn more than teachers in primary and secondary schools, so degrees are important. Teachers earn more in institutions of higher study.
Does guidance counselors get summers off
School counselors typically work nine months a year and have the summers off. This can be especially beneficial for parents who are working and must arrange child care during the school years.
Are school counselors in demand
The employment of school and careers counselors and advisors is expected to increase by 8 percent between 2019-2029, which is much faster than the average growth rate for all occupations. School counselors will be in demand as a result of rising student enrollment in elementary, middle, and high schools.
Who is better: a teacher or a school counselor?
How long does it usually take to become a counselor?
California Board of Behavioral Sciences requires that you have 3,000 hours of supervised post-degree experience as a Professional Clinician Intern (PCCI).
What is the difference in school counselor and school psychologist?
School counselors concentrate more on improving mental and behavioral health through education and individual counseling. They typically serve the entire school population. School psychologists are trained to understand behavioral issues and academic issues through testing, research, and assessment.
How can I become a California school counselor?
Becoming a school counselor
You must first achieve your baccalaureate degree (or higher) from a regionally accredited college or university.
You must enroll in a graduate degree program that culminates with a Pupil Personnel Services credential. This program must be offered at a CCTC-accredited higher education institution.

Is it hard to get a Master's in Counseling?
Master's programs in counseling are difficult and time-consuming. However, they can be overcome with single-mindedness and determination. If you have to work while in school, then work.
Are school counselors able to provide therapy?
School counselors don't provide long-term mental healthcare therapy in schools but they do offer a school counseling program that addresses the developmental needs of all students.

America in Hawaii: A History of United States Influence in the Hawaiian Islands
Por Edmund Janes Carpenter
of the kings, in fief, in return for military service and tribute. Each of the great chiefs divided up the lands controlled by him among the lower chiefs who owed him vassalage; and they, in turn, subdivided the lands among the common people, who cultivated the soil. These were mere tenants at will, and might be dispossessed at any time. It was possible, also, for a serf to transfer his allegiance to another chief, and thus transfer also his tenancy.
At the death of a chief the estates in his keeping reverted to the king, and were redistributed. At the death of a king, also, and the accession of another it was the custom to make a redistribution of all the lands of his island; and this redistribution not infrequently was the cause of civil
gs ts,
war.
of it, ne ds ce
Such was the political condition of the people of the Hawaiian Islands at the time of their discovery by Captain Cook. Their social relations were indefinite. A plurality of wives was common, and polyandry was practised to some extent.
There was elaborate system of tabus, which were not simply laws, but religious and sacred ordi
an WE
cing elly
nances as well. The violation of a tabu would, it was believed, bring upon the transgressor the vengeance of the gods. It was tabu for men and women to eat together. Some kinds of food were tabu to women, as, for example, pork, bananas, cocoanuts, turtles, and certain varieties of fish. At certain times it was forbidden to light a fire; at others, to utter any sound for the space of twenty-four hours. In the operation of this tabu, not only was all noise forbidden to the people, but dogs were muzzled, and even fowls were confined in calabashes, that the darkness might prevent even the crowing of a cock.
Human sacrifices were common, the illness of a chief or the violation of a tabu being often the occasion.
Among such people, thus bound by superstition and tradition, Captain Cook and his followers found themselves. To the vast majority of the people a white man was an object never before seen. They recognized his superiority over themselves; and they believed him to be a god, and offered him their obeisance. It was in the midst of one of the civil wars with which the Islands were fre
ther.
1, as, tles, itain
; at e of this the

quently convulsed that Captain Cook made his first visit. It was in this war that the young prince Kamehameha, of the island Hawaii, distinguished himself as a brave and skilful warrior. He it was who a few years later conquered the entire archipelago, uniting all of the Islands under his sway, and founding a powerful dynasty of Hawaiian monarchs.
Captain Cook, as already said, was, on his arrival, regarded as a god, and was, to some extent, worshipped by the people. His first stay at the Islands was short, but he soon returned for the purpose of passing the winter. This second time he and his men were not welcomed so joyfully as on their first appearance. Depredations had been committed on shore by some of the crew, and thefts by some of the natives of some articles of little value had been punished by Cook and his men with great severity. The discovery on the part of the natives that the white men partook of food, added to the knowledge of the death of one of the crew, raised suspicion among the Hawaiians that these sailors were men, like themselves. Violations of the
perhis
an ized
the fre
tabus by the white men created first a dislike and then an enmity toward their visitors in the minds of the natives. This feeling was intensified by the loose conduct of members of the crew on shore leave. But there was yet no open hostility; and early in February, 1779, Captain Cook again sailed away from the Islands. In a few days, however, he returned for the purpose of making some needed repairs to one of his ships, which had encountered damage in a severe gale. An altercation almost immediately occurred between the natives and members of the crew, the subject of the contention being a stolen boat. The altercation ripened into a quarrel, the quarrel into a mêlée, and this resulted in the death of Cook at the hands of one of the natives. In revenge for his death the village of Napoopoo was cannonaded; and on the twenty-fifth day of February, 1779, Captain Cook's vessels took their final leave of the Islands, leaving upon the minds of the islanders an impression of the white race far from agreeable.
It is interesting to know that the island natives of the present day have preserved the memory of the first white discoverer of their
islands in the erection of a marble monument upon the spot where he met his death. This monument is a conspicuous landmark upon the shore of the island Hawaii, at Kealakekua Bay.
The story of the death of Cook was carried to Europe by the returning ships, and, as might be expected, was told by the ship's crew in a manner best suited to their own advantage. The impression of the character of the islanders thus produced upon the people of Europe sufficed to keep enterprising voyagers away from those coasts for fully seven years. During this period the Islands were rent by civil feuds. Prince Kamehameha gathered to himself a considerable military following, and made unsuccessful war against the two allied chiefs of the Islands. He also made a fruitless attempt to invade the island of Maui. But, although beaten back in those expeditions, he not discouraged.
In May, 1786, the English ships King George, commanded by Captain Portlock, and Queen Charlotte, under command of Captain Dixon, arrived off the coast of Ha
