News and Events June 2020
Welcome Back to the 'Carman Standard'. Dismay at the loss of our local weekly newspaper turned to relief May 14 with the return of the new, improved 'Carman-Dufferin Standard.' Local papers are the lifeline of small communities. For anyone interested in our past, newspapers are our richest reservoir of local heritage.
it seems appropriate that 'The Standard' shares the name of our first local newspaper. Published weekly between July 15, 1890 and Sept. 28, 1916, the paper kept a growing community abreast of both world and local news. 'The Standard' was joined in 1898 by the local 'Dufferin Leader.' In 1976, the 'Dufferin Leader' transitioned into the more regional 'Valley Leader' which just published its final issue on May 7, 2020. 'The Carman-Dufferin Standard' seamlessly issued its first edition on May 14, 2020. With a strong staff such as community stalwart Dennis Young on board, the new 'Standard' holds promise of high quality reporting of community news in the years to come. Welcome back.
For an engaging view of our past as seen through our two early newspapers, visit pembinamanitouarchive.ca
While the 'The Carman-Duffferin Standard' is keeping us up to date with local news, readers will be pleased to see that they haven't forgotten the past. Check out the May 28 edition for 'This Week in Review….', a look back at events and items of interest from early issues of the 'Standard' and 'Dufferin Leader'. And don't miss Dennis Young's entertaining "interview" with the Memorial Hall. On May 24, 1920 this unique WWI memorial was officially opened and the list of 83 local military personnel who lost their lives during the conflict was unveiled. The 100th anniversary celebration that was planned for May 24, 2020 was yet another casualty of the COVID-19 epidemic. Thanks to the 'Standard' for helping us remember.
Memories of WWII. One of our goals this year is to encourage folks to begin writing their own life stories and to record family stories passed down through the years. I don't think we were fully prepared for the amazing stories that are a part of our local heritage.
C/D MHAC member Nikki Falk wrote about a moving journey she and her sisters made to France six years ago to attend the 70th Anniversary of the Evaders of the Fréteval Forest. The Sandulak family received an invitation from the village of Villebout, France to attend the ceremonies on behalf of their father Sgt. John Sandulak. Village officials, proud of their community's historic role in the Resistance, were holding ceremonies marking the 70th anniversary of the camp in which 152 allied soldiers were kept hidden in the forest by the local Resistance Fighters during WWII—under the nose of the Germans.
Nikki's father had passed away four years before the anniversary; she and three sisters and their sister-in-law made the trip to France. She wrote:
It was a surreal time—there were five of us but throughout the entire trip we felt there was a 6th person with us. Always thinking we had another suitcase to throw in the vehicle, six chairs at tables, walking through the Fréteval Forest and so on—we like to think it was our Dad along with us. He had never returned in all those years but kept in touch with his French friends long after the war was over. Just before we left on the trip our Mom found a group of photos he brought back with him from the war—of resistance fighters—no names, just their secret numbers written on the back.
I was in touch with a wonderful Belgian historian who was researching and writing about the airmen in the hidden forest. I sent him copies of the photos and he shocked us all when he sent word before we left for France that he had located the woman who hid Dad in their barn after he had to bail out over occupied territory. She was 93 years old, alive and well and willing to meet us. She had been a 23 year old woman when she and Dad met, one year older than Dad.
What a moment that was—a gloomy, rainy Sunday morning in a little French village. I'll never forget walking up to her door—rain coming straight down, the five of us under the shelter of our Royal Canadian Legion poppy umbrellas. She kept kissing our cheeks, we spent the visit looking at photos together, drinking coffee and making connections.
As we were saying our goodbyes the rain stopped and the bright sun came out from behind the clouds. She gave directions to the farm where they had lived during the war and where they had protected Dad until he was cleared by the Resistance and taken to the hidden forest camp. We then walked around the farm marvelling at how we were standing where Dad had been 70 years before us—a prairie boy in an RCAF uniform, missing one flying boot, doing his best to communicate with sign language.
Dad had described to me the courtyard of the farm, encircled by the house and outbuildings. Standing there almost 70 years later to the day, the memory of that moment is forever etched in our minds. He told us a story of how early one morning in the fog he saw a North American brand farm implement and for a fleeting moment wondered if he was on home soil and it was all just a dream.
We went to France fully prepared to thank everyone involved in the resistance efforts for saving our Dad's life all those years ago. To our surprise the people of France wouldn't hear of it and said over and over that their thanks and gratitude went to the all brave allied soldiers who fought for their freedoms. One local woman was insistent she talk to us at the ceremony and with the help of an interpreter she asked us what connection our father had to France. She couldn't seem to grasp why a young Canadian had crossed the ocean to fight in a war in Europe. Finally my sister Lori said "Our Dad came here because you needed help." Watching the woman as she realized the connection was as simple as helping your fellow man, seeing her hand over her heart, that moment was worth every mile of our journey. There is so much more to tell, we must sit with pictures someday and I can tell you the stories.
The story of how our family came to be also began during those war years. Our Mom saw Dad's picture in the Carman paper listed 'Missing in Action'. She said that she walked across the kitchen to her sister, pointed at his picture and announced: "I don't know this guy but if he comes back alive I'm going to marry him—I like his smile". My Mom usually got what she set out to accomplish and Dad was no exception!
Dad was from Sperling and when there was no word after he went missing in action his parents asked for his belongings to be returned to them from his base in England. Sometime later a telegram came in addressed to them. It said that in regard to their son's belongings there would be no need to return them as they were happy to report he would be bringing them home himself. He had made his way back to England after liberation! Can you imagine getting that telegram? The man at the telegraph office was so excited he drove to the farm himself with the message. We still have that paper and were always told that Gramma's tears were dried into it.
I suspect that a few more tears were just shed by those who read this moving account from one family's life story. For much more about Fréteval Forest and John Sandulak's amazing experience, check out the following links:

Background to Events of 1870 (cont'd). Our reliance on written history has led to the notion that this part of the country didn't have any notable history or heritage prior to the arrival of Europeans. Archeological evidence and recognition of the value of oral histories has begun to rectify this ethnocentric approach to our past.
Our histories now begin with accounts of the arrival of the first human emigrants to North America across the Bering Straits land bridge sometime between twelve and seventy thousand years ago. They spread gradually across the continent, inhabiting this region only after the retreat of the Ice Age glaciers. The earliest human artifacts located in southern Manitoba date from about 11000 to 9000 B.C. Evidence of a diversified culture based on gathering, fishing and hunting is found from around 5000 to 2000 B.C. This coincided with the drainage of Lake Agassiz and emergence of a land of prairie grasslands, rivers, lakes and tree-covered parkland. Check our local museums for collections of early artifacts from this area.
For an informative overview of local geology and lives of our first inhabitants, you might wish to locate a copy of the Miami Museum's 'Pembina Country: a Land of Promise' published by D.W. Friesen & Sons, Altona, 1974.
Last month we referred you to Gerald Friesen's history 'The Canadian Prairies: A History' for a more balanced insight into the workings of the western fur trade than most of us learned about in our early schooldays. The chapters on the early history of the western Indigenous cultures and their role in the fur trade are especially helpful in understanding the people and their activities in this region prior to 1870.
Here in brief are some of his insights, points we often miss when we think about the early inhabitants of this land:
1. Diversity of Culture – Early "Indians" often are viewed as a single cultural group, tinted in part by a stereotypical "wild-west" image. Rather like assuming "Europeans" all share the same language and culture. In fact, some 200 language groups were found across North America along with lifestyles adapted to the local environment. These ranged from the migrant hunting/ gathering groups in the north-west to more settled agricultural-based communities in some southern and eastern areas of the continent. Three main linguistic groups were represented in the north-west area of the continent. Over the centuries, different groups relocated or extended their range within this general region. One cultural aspect Indigenous North Americans appear to have shared was a close spiritual connection with the natural environment.
2. History of Trade. Trading goods within a band, between bands of the same culture or amongst other groups with whom they had diplomatic alliances was part of the early Indigenous lifestyle. Plains hunters, for example, migrated long distances to exchange pelts, beadwork or other artifacts for agricultural products produced by Mandan settlements far to the south. These gatherings were occasions for ceremonies, games and social interaction. Some of these practices carried over into the European fur trade.
3. Change on Contact. During the first two centuries of contact in the West (1640–1840), arrival of European fur trade had little impact on Indigenous lifestyles. Trade with the European companies was carried out largely though Indigenous middlemen who travelled to the posts, traded pelts for goods and made the journey back to the local bands. Blankets, cloth, and metal goods replaced the earlier technologies but did not change the lifestyle of the indigenous cultures. Seasonal migration patterns continued, and surplus furs were traded for more desirable goods. The companies in turn had furs delivered to their posts.
4. Approaching 1870. As competition between the fur trading companies evolved, lives of the original inhabitants began to change. Company trading posts were moved inland, Indigenous middlemen were replaced by company employees and canoeists. These changes led to an increased demand for food, especially for pemmican, the staple of the canoeists diet. The traditional buffalo hunt, now more efficient thanks to introduction of the horse and gun, responded to the new demand. Soon the increasing demand for pemmican and buffalo robes, growing competition from US traders and widespread introduction of horses and guns to the buffalo hunt led to rapid depletion of herds in traditional hunting areas. Outsiders also brought diseases. Measles and the smallpox epidemics of 1781 and 1836 took a heavy toll on non-resistant communities. After 1870, homesteaders began to arrive, reducing the size of the seasonal hunting and foraging areas.
As a result, the local Indigenous population experienced a reduction in numbers from starvation, disease, and migration to new hunting territories. The census taken in 1870 as part of the union with Canada recorded only 558 persons classified as "Indian" from a total of over 11,900 persons then living in the 'postage-stamp' Province of Manitoba.
After 1870, changes in the local lifestyle accelerated. The traditional hunting/gathering/trade-based economy of previous centuries rapidly changed to an agricultural-based market economy. Indigenous members of the population learned that the European concept of land ownership had replaced their understanding that the land and its resources were for all to use. In future, they would live on reserves.
We'll continue next month with our rather superficial but hopefully pertinent look at the local pre-1870 population of this region we now call Manitoba.
News and Events May 2020
May 12th. This was the day Manitoba was supposed to be celebrating the 150th anniversary of our Province. All events have been cancelled because of COVID-19—including the long-planned unveiling of our Missouri Trail sign which was scheduled for the 12th. It will all take place in due course.
How appropriate though that this May 12, nurses around the world are placing candles in their windows to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Florence Nightingale and International Nurses' Day. Nightingale's service during the Crimean War and her image as "The Lady with the Lamp" captured the attention of the British public. She went on to establish the first school of Nursing, thereby laying the foundation for recognition of Nursing as a profession. The Founder of Nursing would be proud to see nurses still out there on the front line during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Local Heritage. Nothing much happening these days as we all cope in our own way with social isolation. A few friends and family members are out on the front line in essential services. Those of us who are retired are grateful to be at home and to have time to tackle that 'to-do' list that somehow hasn't decreased in length over the past few years. Things like working on life stories.
We didn't get far enough into our life-story sessions for most participants to feel confident enough to work ahead on their own. A couple of group members have emailed stories to our project leader for feedback. Hopefully a few more are doing a bit of journaling and recording their response to this current period of history-in-the-making.
On the world scene, May 8, the 75th anniversary of VE-Day, the day Germany surrendered in WWII, is being commemorated with virtual and distance-conscious ceremonies. Folks in the UK will join in a country-wide sing-along of "We'll meet again…" This was the signature WWII song sung by Dame Vera Lynn – who incidentally is still alive at age 103. It was probably too revealing to have mentioned recently to our committee that I recall hearing her sing that song on the radio and listening to the family belting it out as they gathered around the piano. One advantage of aging is that you sure have a lot of memories!
Meanwhile, on the home front, it looks like all our Manitoba 150 events and displays will be happening in 2021.
From the Museum. Meetings have been cancelled but the DHS president reports that the Museum has gratefully received a grant from the Carman Foundation and has purchased new dehumidifiers for the museum.
Background to Events of 1870 (cont'd). Back in February, we identified the lengthy conflict between Britain, France, and their colonies in North America as one of the underlying factors in local 1870 events and noted that underlying issues of religion, culture, language, imperial expansion and trade were closely intertwined in the conflicts. In the West, these differences played out in rivalry around the fur trade.
For some three centuries prior to 1870, the fur trade remained the core industry in the West. It also became the main reason for settlement around the Forks and along the Red and Assiniboine Rivers. The key players during this time were early explorers/traders out of New France, the rival Hudson's Bay and North West Companies, and the Indigenous trappers, hunters and middlemen who supplied the pelts and hides and food (pemmican) that sustained the trade.
In the century and a half between the founding of New France and the defeat of the French colony by the English, explorers and traders extended their activities westward into the heart of the continent and the Northwest. They returned with rich northern furs and with heightened interest in the interior as a target for expanding trade and spreading the Catholic faith. Fur traders from New France were soon making the annual voyage westward. They traded with their Huron allies along the Ottawa River and Georgian Bay, then travelled westward near what later became the Canada-U.S.A. border. Their canoes were laden with supplies and trade goods on the voyage west and with furs on return a year later.
Two of the more adventurous of these explorers/traders, Radisson and Groseilliers, left their party and ventured northward to the head of Lake Superior and beyond. They returned to New France with furs and plans for expansion into the North. Unfortunately, their employers didn't share their enthusiasm for the venture and disciplined the pair, so they took their plan to the English. The rest, as we never tire of saying, is history.
Rupertsland - the shaded area
Henry Hudson's explorations for an ice-free Northwest Passage to the Far East had led to discovery of Hudson's Bay and James Bay. These discoveries unintentionally opened up a shorter route to the fur-bearing lands that Radisson and Groseilliers hoped to exploit. A new trading company was formed under the patronage of Prince Rupert, cousin of King Charles II of England and first governor of the company. On May 2, 1670, a Royal Charter granted the Hudson's Bay Company exclusive trading and commercial rights in Rupertsland.
This was the name given to the vast lands draining into Hudson's Bay, an area of 1.5 million square miles and over one-third the area of Canada today. The company held this monopoly for 200 years from 1670 to 1870. However, there was little provision for enforcement of the monopoly. And by ignoring the presence of Indigenous residents and assuming sovereignty over the territory, the charter also opened the way to later confrontation over land claims.
The HBC built forts and fur trading posts along the shores of James and Hudson bays. Indigenous trappers and middlemen brought their furs down the rivers to the posts along the coastline. Formation of the HBC opened the way for competition with traders using the longer canoe route from the East. The HBC also had the advantage of better quality English trade goods.
Through the Treaty of Paris in 1763, France lost most of her holdings in North America. Rather than removing fur trade competition in the West, this led to formation of a reorganized, more efficient fur trade competitor, the North West Company. The new company established a way station at the head of Lake Superior. Canoes brought supplies from the East and exchanged them for furs brought in from the Northwest. This move reduced the eastern leg of the voyage to three months rather than a year. The new company also provided the same quality trade goods as the HBC. It was reorganized internally and, because of its more northern focus, began to intercept trappers and middlemen on their way north to the HBC posts. The fur trade moved into a more highly competitive and conflict ridden era.
The HBC began to see a drop in furs delivered to the shoreline posts. They responded to building inland posts. Then in 1811, Lord Selkirk was inspired by a philanthropic urge to resettle crofters who had lost their holdings when landowners enclosed their lands and transitioned to sheep farming. This venture combined with the further inspiration that an agricultural settlement in the West could provide a local food supply and a place where HBC employees could settle and raise families. The result was the Red River Colony or Assiniboia which included the area around The Forks and much of the pemmican-producing territory west of the Red River.
The Forks had become a center for exchange of furs from the Northwest and for the supply of pemmican, the food staple for the fur trade. Conflict heightened over the new presence at the Forks and attempts by colony officials to regulate trade including export of pemmican. This culminated in the Battle of Seven Oaks (1816). The conflict between the North West Company and the HBC was resolved through union of the companies in 1821. By this time, however the fur trade was changing. Demand for furs from the European market had begun to decline. With the absence of any enforceable law in the area, free traders had begun a growing trade with the American companies which were pressing westward under the banner of Manifest Destiny and offering serious competition in the fur trade. By 1870, The HBC was open to moving out of the fur trade.
Assiniboia – Red River Colony
Like most histories of the fur trade, this brief overview focuses on the trading companies, the Red River settlers and the growing pressures westward of US expansion. As our noted Manitoba historian, Gerald Friesen, points out, the traditional European-centered focus misses a facet of the story without which there wouldn't have been any trade—the role of the Indigenous population. Rather than being passive recipients of trade, these were the folks who trapped and hunted and sustained the traders by providing the staple food supplies. Next month we'll look at the people who lived here and who made the trade possible and how it affected their lives.
Note: To flesh out this bare-bones outline and get more background information on any particular topic such as the role of the coureur-de-bois/voyageurs, Battle of Seven Oaks, or early fur companies, you might find it useful to first check out these individual topics on Wikipedia and follow up with other online articles as your interest directs you. When you are able to access libraries, for a readable and perceptive history of the Prairies, try Gerald Friesen's The Canadian Prairies: A History (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1987).

As the summer approaches, while many are getting ready for the beach, the pre-meds are preparing to hit the books. In this post, we'll give you the tips to create an effective study schedule, and build your confidence for test day!
There are several test dates for the MCAT in the summer, and is one of the most popular times for sitting for this anxiety provoking test. As your test date approaches, you may be filled with anxiety and despair. A detailed study schedule is an easy way to banish those feelings of fear, and prepare yourself for this exam.
An effective and detailed study plan is instrumental to achieving MCAT success and ultimately admissions to your dream medical school. Your MCAT tutor can be a great source to help you create a detailed and specific study plan. Here are just a few critical pieces:
- Manage your time
Set a date!
Leaving it open ended is often a surefire way to promote anxiety around the test. Setting a date sets a time limit, and when the end is in site, it's a lot easier to work towards. Once you've got a date in mind, determine how much time you've got to prepare. In my opinion 1-3 months is optimal depending on how long ago you took some of those classes. Remember the Sn2 reaction? If organic chemistry seems like a foreign language, maybe you'd benefit from a few additional days of prep.
When can't you study?
We all have lives, and its important to make time for those things. Maybe you have a part time job? Full time job? Schedule all of these things into the calendar to accurately assess how much time you actually have to study (not just the number of days)
Schedule breaks!
No student can study around the clock. The biggest mistake people often make is studying all the time. Scheduling breaks are so important for processing information, and giving your brain a recharge. Read a book, see some friends, or go for a run. Whatever it is that you do to unwind, PUT IT ON YOUR CALENDAR!
- Focus on your weaknesses first
In preparing for the exam, students often begin with their best subjects first. While this is a nice ego boost and builds confidence, the MCAT isn't going to test you solely on your best subjects. It is extremely important to tackle the topics with which you don't feel comfortable with first. This will allow you to spend more time on them, gaining proficiency (since you wont be worried about finishing your study schedule right before your test date). You will need time to get comfortable with those topics, and do a lot of practice. Starting these now, means you have more time to identify gaps in your knowledge and correct them before your test date
- Content vs. Questions
The other big mistake with students is that they often spend too much time doing one or the other, reviewing content or just doing questions. A good MCAT study schedule will balance both of these based on your skill level. Feeling like a particular topic is completely foreign to you? That's an indication that you need to spend a little more time on reviewing content. Feeling great about genetics, then focus your attention on practice. Gain proficiency in answering questions and your timing with practice. This means more time on the test for topics you are less comfortable with. Remember, the test is not just reviewing content, its assessing your ability to answer questions and demonstrate proficiency under a time crunch

Update On Whale At Port Mahon
Yesterday a small whale washed up against the fishing pier at Port Mahon. Alex Tkachuk was there fishing and sent me a couple of pictures. Someone there called DNREC, and I called Suzanne Thurman at MERR. They sent a crew out there to decide what to do with it which most likely would be tow it off the pier out into the bay or even to the ocean. Today they were going to try and tow off the whale but the conditions are not good for a boat to get into there and tomorrow might be an issue as well. No idea what happened to the whale, apparently identifying it was not easy due to so much decomposition. Suzanne Thurman "Possibly a humpback, it is stuck on a piling right now. Can't plan a tow until the seas calm down and then it is unknown as to whether a vessel can access the area".
As of this afternoon the whale has been washed ashore which will make MERR's job much harder disposing of the whale. Alex Tkachuk … "It is between what's left of the old sea wall and the rocks, and it is starting to smell pretty bad" I remember the one that washed up on Bethany Beach, it is definitely a rough smell. Suzanne Thurman of MERR … "Unfortunately it is wedged at the jaw hinge on that piling, so it won't go out and we can't tow it to the land side because it will break up on the rocks. We can't get a vessel in close enough either. We will have to wait and see if the next couple of tide cycles will float it over the pilings or bring it closer to shore. Access wise it is a lousy place for a whale standing."
Fish On!

Ways to Reduce Chubby Cheeks ...
Do you dislike your chubby cheeks? When you call them apple cheeks they sound so cute. Chubby cheeks doesn't have quite the same reaction – unless you're a child (and adults everywhere just want to pinch them). Chubby cheeks are also a facial feature that are difficult to disguise or hide with makeup. There are however, some ways you can reduce cheek chubbiness:
1. Hot Towel Treatment
One of the ways to reduce cheek fat is to give yourself a nice relaxing hot towel treatment. The treatment utilizes both steam and contact heat to help to make an immediate impact on your face. This can be done simply and easily by boiling some water, allowing it to cool slightly, soaking a small towel in it and applying it to your face. The heat and steam in from the towel will encourage sweating and stimulate the burning of fat.
2. Blow Balloons
It's been proven that blowing a balloon can be a great form of exercise for the cheek area in particular! It works the muscles in your cheeks unlike any other activity. Repeat inhaling and exhaling the air out at least 10 times, maybe twice a day, and you will definitely start to feel some differences in your cheek area. The perfect exercise for when you are preparing for a party!
3. Tongue Rotation Exercise
You can work out your cheeks by doing exercises with your tongue too. Close your mouth and begin to rotate your tongue, remembering to touch the outer surface of the lower and upper teeth as you go. Do this 15 times and then switch direction and repeat all over again. You might feel silly doing it but it has been known to make a difference.
4. Chewing Gum
Some people don't enjoy it as a habit but chewing gum throughout the day will provide your mouth and cheek area with a constant workout that you don't really have to think about. Chewing some sugar free gum for around 20 minutes per day, twice a day can actually start to have a positive impact on your cheek muscles and can alter how they look.
5. Gargling Water
Gargling some warm water in your mouth is also another way to possibly burn fat from your cheeks. The act of gargling provides that area another form of exercise that is unusual and works out muscles that don't normally get worked out on a day-to-day basis. The great thing about gargling is that it is simple, easy to do, not at all expensive in any way, and can be performed pretty much anywhere.
6. Facial Massage
Not only does a good facial massage feel amazing, but it can also have an impact on your cheeks if they are particularly plump or puffy. A facial massage can improve circulation in the area, and increased blood flow can improve muscle tone, which will help to transform your cheeks from 'fat' to more toned. To make a facial massage more effective you should always employ natural oils in to the process: wheat germ oil and ginseng oil are good choices.
7. Watch Your Diet
It has been proven that a diet that has too much sugar or too much starch in it can be a likely cause of puffy cheeks in a person. If you think that your food choices might be having a direct impact on the puffiness of your cheeks, then do some personal tests by cutting out certain foods and seeing if it makes a difference.
Do you have chubby cheeks? Love them or hate them? How do you make the most of them? I'm sure readers will appreciate any makeup tips you care to share.

Hazards From Radioactive Material | Radioactivity | Physics | FuseSchool
Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/FuseSchool CREDITS Animation & Design: Chloe Fyvie Adams Narration: Dale Bennet Script: Bethan Parry Nuclear power stations produce electricity, which of course is extremely useful. However, they also make radioactive waste. When items have no further use and have radioactivity above certain levels, they are known as radioactive waste. Radioactive waste can come from a range of activities, including generating electricity from nuclear power stations, treating medical illnesses, and conducting research. Did you know that radioactive waste can be harmful to us? Either by irradiation or contamination. We're going to look at these two in this video. Irradiation is when a person or object is exposed to radiation without coming into direct contact with the radioactive source. The person doesn't make direct contact with the radioactive barrel, but since irradiation can happen at a distance, the person is still at risk. The damage to the person only happens whilst the person is in the area of the radioactive waste. Therefore, the person is only exposed to radiation for a short time, and so receives a low dose of radiation. Irradiation can sometimes be useful, particularly during cancer treatment. People are irradiated in an attempt to remove cancerous cells from their body. Irradiation is also used to sterilise surgical equipment or to remove bacteria from fruit in supermarkets. The objects don't become radioactive themselves, and so they are safe for use or consumption. Contamination is when a person actually comes into contact with radioactive wastes. The person takes the radioactive source away with them, and so are exposed for a longer period of time and consequently have a higher dose which can lead to more damage. Contamination can happen in a variety of ways: from picking up a source, to breathing it, to ingesting it. Contamination is used in medicine by injecting radioactive tracers into the body to see possible blockages. Radioactive tracers are also used to find leaks in water pipes. Radioactive waste can remain hazardous for a very short or a very long period of time, depending upon the different half-lives. 'Half-lives' mean the level of hazard of the radioactive waste reduces with time. If we start off with a kilogram of radioactive waste that has a half-life of 100 years, after 100 years we will have 500g of radioactive waste. After another 100 years there will be 250g of it, and so on. Eventually, the amount of radiation will decrease until it reaches the same level as background radiation. For medical contamination that involves injecting radioactive sources, isotopes that have very short half-lives are selected. The half-life is long enough that they stay active for detection to be done, but short enough that they reduce to low-risk levels as quickly as possible. Background radiation comes from artificial and natural sources around us, that we experience daily. It is low in magnitude so it isn't harmful. However, for some radioactive wastes to reach this low background level, it may take several thousand years. So just how harmful is radioactive waste? The answer depends on the half-life of the waste and whether a person is irradiated or contaminated. It's like asking how long is a piece of string? We've now learned about the differences between irradiation and contamination.

Tips in Choosing and Buying Air Conditioning Units
Air conditioning units are a great way of beating the summer's heat. But then again, you will have to recall the basic knowledge that AC units available in both online and offline stores are not exactly the same and it is your job to pinpoint these unique differences. To improve your chance of finding an air conditioning unit that is worth your money and can meet your specific purposes, read and learn the air conditioning buying guided provided in the paragraphs below.
Air Conditioning Units Buying Tips: How to Identify the Right AC Units to Procure
1. What Is the AC Size to Get?
When you have finally checked out the various styles of AC units in the market and have successfully made up your mind over these unique differences, the next thing to do is to determine the right size of an air conditioning unit to acquire. It is important to know that the size of the AC is actually equivalent to its capacity. At this point of time, you need to consider the area where you will be using the air conditioning system. If the building is big or crowded, you will need an air conditioning unit with higher cooling capacity. Always check the package or ask the salesperson to know more about AC size.
2. Consider AC Efficiency
As to efficiency, AC units are not the same. Efficiency levels and these unique differences however makes you a better buyer in terms of choosing the AC that is best to grab. Efficiency is measures in terms of the cooling amount the air conditioning unit can render per electric watt. Measuring AC efficiency is done in terms of SEER. An AC having a SEER of 14 can already be considered an efficient air conditioning system. You can go beyond this, of course, since it's only the minimum for SEER. The higher is the SEER of the AC, the lower the cost you'll incur.
3. Consider the Maintenance Factor
As a customer, you have to get an air conditioning unit that comes with a plausible service plan. With a good service plan, there is assurance maintenance costs will remain at the bottom. The company selling you the unit must offer you inspections to be done regularly at repair and maintenance fees at prices you can very well afford. You also have to check if the AC comes with a labor warranty. In the middle of these unique differences placing AC units apart from each other, maintenance is among the factors that will help you come up with a better choice.
Buying an AC should be done with due care. Knowing these unique differences between air conditioning units, gear up yourself to choosing the best and the right one.

Hadoop for Developers
We're very happy to present this course from our partners, Jumping Bean, a company with significant experience delivering high quality courses focussing on Apache Hadoop.
Apache Hadoop is an open-source framework that has been designed to handle large data sets across clusters of computers. It manages distributed storage and processing of data by breaking it up and spreading it across cluster nodes.
This Apache Hadoop course that we are presenting, and very much looking forward to, will give participants an in-depth look at fundamental concepts and processes that are integral to getting Apache Hadoop working efficiently and solidly for businesses of all sizes.
Developed by Doug Cutting and Michale J., Hadoop makes it less costly to store and process data, spreading the processing requirements amongst different computers to make complex calculations.
One of the most impressive uses of Apache Hadoop is the National Security Agency (NSA) in the United States of America using it to detect and foil terrorist and cyber attacks. Police also use it to catch criminals while credit card companies also use it to identify fraudulent transactions.
Below is an outline for this 3 day course which gives a thorough breakdown of all the topics that will be covered. For more information, do not hesitate to contact us directly, we'd love to hear from you.

Insurgency: We Will Handle North East Troubles — Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday, reiterated his administration's commitment to ensure the rehabilitation of Internally Displaced Persons affected by the troubles in the North East.
Buhari made the statment while receiving Janez Lenarcic, the European Union (EU) Commissioner for Crisis Management in State House, Abuja.
President Buhari said, "If we were capable to fight a 30-month civil war and reorganised our country, I wonder why people are thinking that Nigeria cannot do it.
"Though it might take a bit longer, the nation will surely put the issues associated with the troubles in the Northeast in order and move ahead.
READ ALSO: Six Relatives Killed In Mass Shooting
"I assure you of Nigeria's commitment to enhance and deepen cooperation with the EU in all areas. Our priorities in the next level is to ensure that Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs, are rehabilitated so that livelihood should be established and the children should not lose the opportunity to go back to school, which is very important for the future of that area and Nigeria generally.
"We have the experience of the civil war. I could recall the role of the military, the army, each commander had in his pocket how to behave himself and how to allow international bodies like yourself to go round and see for themselves that people are treated in the most humane way. We have this experience and I assure you that we also have this confidence in your organisation. That is why I feel that Nigeria is capable of handling this crisis, it may take long but we are capable of handling it."

Electrician Service Pros Menasha, WI
Phone : 888-236-8242
In many cases, an electrician may set their prices entirely on the grounds of expertise they have in the field together with looking at the present status of competition in the industry. He does take risks, so the job is not for everyone. For the protection of yourself and your family it's nearly always better to employ an expert electrician who will check everything before you think about purchasing the property. It's really monetarily shrewd to obtain a specialist electrician.
The best electrical contractors have a fairly higher capacity for unique types of work, and usually do significant building installations in addition to residential work.

Outgoing Zambia Honour Janza says that he may not even stay on as technical director.
Janza will not continue as Zambia coach following FAZ's announcement on Saturday that they will replace the interim trainer with a more qualified foreigner.
"I would think twice because they are the same administrators who I am going to work with, so I will think about it if I will take it up or I have to cross the road," Janza said who has been interim coach since August 2013.
"Maybe my football relationship with Zambia could end here both as a coach and technical director."
Janza has been technical director since 2009 and has also been attached to the Zambia bench as an assistant trainer to date.
"I am not happy with the way I am being addressed even if I remain as a technical director, I will still face the same people," Janza said.
"I might have to take leave first to go and think about it."

In coordination with the Iraqi government, Shalamcheh and Chazzabeh border crossings in Iran's southern Khuzestan Province reopened on Wednesday.
IRNA also cited local officials as saying that based on a directive issued by the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration, trucks carrying export goods to Iraq, except refrigerated ones loaded with perishable foodstuff, through Khosravi, Mehran, Chazzabeh and Shalamcheh border crossings along the common border with the neighboring country, had been banned since late October.
The measure was taken by IRICA to facilitate the travel of some 650,000 pilgrims that headed to Iraq to commemorate Arbaeen on Nov. 9, and prevent truck drivers from being held up along the busy borders during the period. Arbaeen marks the 40th-day anniversary after the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (PBUH), the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Each year, a large number of Shias converge on the Iraqi city of Karbala, where the holy shrine of Imam Hussein (PBUH) is located.

Flames fall 4-1 at Manchester Storm
In Manchester, the Storm never trailed and scored at least once in each period to send the Flames away on the back of a 4-1 defeat of Spectrum's men. Storm struck first when Ciaran Long scored shorthanded at 6:47. The visitors went on to later kill a string of penalties including a long 3 on 5 encounter before Liam Stewart knotted the score at a goal each in the 16th minute. The Flames did end up a goal adrift through 2 periods thanks to a late stanza marker, a goal that turned out to be the winner, by Mike Hammond that had Storm ahead 2-1 with 20 minutes to play. The Canadian forward offered some insurance with his 2nd of the evening shortly after period re-start when he extended it to a 3-1 difference and Matt Beca's goal with 3 and a half minutes remaining ensured there would be no late reply from the travelling Surrey gang.
"Tonight was a hard slog for us," said Paul Dixon. "We didn't have the usual energy we are used to seeing from this group, and we spent far too much time in the penalty box."
"We need to try and set this one aside quickly and get ready for Fife. The Flyers play at pace so we need to have a bit more zip. That is a big ask in the middle of a very busy part of the schedule, but that is where our focus needs to be."
"We have a pretty resilient group so it will be interesting to see how we respond on home ice Saturday night."

The Overton Window is the range of policies which are considered respectable in mainstream political discourse... anything outside the 'window' is considered radical. Over the course of the past forty decades, with aid from the media (particularly right-wing talk radio), the Overton Window has been shifted rightward. Once unthinkable policies, such as the gutting of Social Security and Medicare, are now considered right-of-center-though-not-unreasonable postions.
Generally speaking, the Democratic Party shifted to the right, with Bill Clinton implementing 'welfare reform' in the 90s. The Republican Party, however, has shifted so far to the right that it has veered off into fascism. Still, the push continues, as Fox personalities try to paint John Bolton, of all people, as a liberal. Yeah, THAT Bolton, the war hawk of the oughts. Bolton is a far-right figure, but he's a neocon, so his brand of far-right lunacy is not in vogue right now. The real reason why Bolton is persona non grata among the Trump Cult dead-enders is because he possesses information that undermines Trump's impeachment defense and he's enough of a loose cannon that he might actually spill the beans, if only to spite his erstwhile boss.
The MAGA supporters cannot recognize nuance... they cannot see that Bolton is a righty because he's no longer playing for their team. If he bucks Trump, he must be a lefty. We don't want Bolton. He's not even a principled conservative. I don't think there are any principled conservatives anymore. Just because some roided-out blockhead on Fox claims that he's a liberal, that doesn't mean that we need to claim him. Hell, I'm not ready to forgive that Rick Wilson guy, and he's been anti-Trump from the jump.

The Slingshot WF-1 board is an outstanding wake foil board. It is in great condition with no dings or cracks. There were a few scratches on the bottom around the foil track that were smoothed over and cleaned up (shown in pics).
The Wf-1 is ideal for boaters and kiters wanting a thin, light, and maneuverable foil board for learning and cruising around at intermediate levels. This is a very durable board. The WF-1 has a really nice traction pad and stop pad that also had holes to accommodate centerline straps. You can convert this board into a tri or quad fin scurf or freestyle kiteboard by adding FCS1 or FCS2 fins.

Fourteen questions related to Remembrance Day (topics include WW1, WW2 ration books, Korean War, war poetry, etc.). Use as a traditional paper-based quiz or an IT based investigation. Learners could work individually or in teams / small groups. One way of approaching the quiz would be to see what the class as a whole can answer from their general knowledge before moving on to internet research.
Five large A4 templates for web page, letter, article, email and a speech/talk. They can be used in a variety of ways depending upon learner levels and lesson objectives. E.g. E1-E2 students can discuss and decide upon the text type and/or where they might see such document, E2-E3 learners can use them to plan or draft work. At L1 they could be displayed onscreen as a brief reminder to use different layouts for different purposes or for reading revision (of organisational features).
I have used this organisational features matching exercise in two ways, either to test learners initial knowledge of the features or as a revision tool.

Two versions - one, with images, for Entry Level and another for higher levels. Fully mapped to the reformed Functional English content which comes into effect in September 2019.
Learners use a gap-fill to complete positive and negative restaurant reviews.
I designed this resource to encourage learners to use a thesaurus to help improve their vocabulary and use more interesting adjectives.
I've used it with Entry level and Level 1/2 learners.
Fully mapped to the new 2018 Functional English content which comes into effect September 2019.
I'm using this activity to give learners a writing frame for a piece of creative writing. I want them to really think about purpose of text when they are creating it, so they have to pick the format, style and tone of their work and plan it out.
I have had feedback from people using the Big Brother PDF discussion worksheet (see link below – under see also) but without any pictures! The fun part of the session (and for it to really work) is to show the students the people they have chosen: this generates plenty of discussion about prejudice and stereotyping. So, here are the 20 pictures to match to each description given in the earlier resource. (You should feel free to edit and adapt according to the demographics / prejudices / preconceptions of own students).
This resource has a range of activities to help students learn useful expressions/ language to make a complaint.
It is useful in building confidence in making complaints in person and on the telephone.

I don't see how inheriting from a special base class helps. Instantiating instances of a special type is no safer than calling a different function for this purpose. The issue is merely one of supplying external knowledge that the new shared_ptr should not assume sole ownership of the raw pointer. enable_shared_from_this was created to express a special use case of, as you point out, a more general need.

Lena Dunham's hotly anticipated Girls is still the topic of the week, with bad and good reviews in every major and minor news outlet. In all the hubbub, I worry that we might have missed what was (for me at least) the most exciting moment of television in some time. Last week, Glee addressed being gender non-conforming through high school student and Vocal Adrenaline member Wade/Unique. Wade feels more at home when expressing his gender as feminine and the amazing Unique is definitely not the kind of girl who gets included in Girls.
Unique is played by Alex Newell, from last year's Glee Project. Alex regularly performed in drag during the show. For example, he once wowed Ryan Murphy by singing "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" from Dreamgirls as Effie White, which may or may not have brought me to tears (I love that song!). He is truly talented and I loved him on the Glee Project (and on Glee for that matter). Sadly, he didn't win the Glee Project, but I am grateful that Ryan Murphy saw his talent and cast him anyway—and I would LOVE to see more of him.
So here's what happened on Glee last week: Wade asked Kurt and Mercedes whether he should perform as Unique in a Vocal Adrenaline show. The duo dissuades him from doing so, then persuades him (per Sue's evil-ish influence), and then attempts to dissuade him again. The final dissuading, however, is unsuccessful, and Wade goes on to perform as Unique and wow the crowd. She sings, following the Disco themed episode, "Put on My Boogie Shoes."
