From this year, 70 and 74-year-olds will receive at-home bowel cancer screening kits as the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program continues to widen screening to include additional age groups.
The risk of bowel cancer increases with age from 50 and is asymptomatic in its early stages. Bowel cancer is the most common cancer affecting both men and women but has a very high cure rate if found early.
Approximately 80 Australians die each week from bowel cancer.*
Minister for Health Jill Hennessy encourages Victorians to participate in the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program.
"Early detection can be key to surviving cancer and I encourage everyone who receives the free kit to complete the test."
"It's simple, it can be done in the privacy of your own home, and it's so important. It could save your life."
The faecal occult blood test (FOBT) looks for the early signs of bowel cancer and involves taking a minuscule sample from two separate bowel motions using a test kit. Samples are then sent to a laboratory for testing. Participants with positive results are advised to discuss their result with their doctor and undergo further testing.
Cancer Council Victoria Screening Manager Kate Broun said that while currently the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program is restricted to certain age groups, the Cancer Council recommends more frequent screening.
"Cancer Council Victoria is invested in not only making 70 and 74 year-olds aware of the program's extension and its significance, but also in reminding all Australians between the ages of 50 and 74 that they should be screening for bowel cancer every two years. Research** shows that biennial screening can save up to 500 lives a year and will take pressure off the health system."
FOBTs are designed for women and men aged 50 and over without symptoms or a strong family history of bowel cancer. Those with a strong family history of bowel cancer or any symptoms should see a doctor. FOBTs can be purchased from the Cancer Council online or by calling 13 11 20.
Frank Clarke, 77, of Vermont South says he has the FOBT kit to thank for the early detection of his bowel cancer in 2007.
"I had absolutely no symptoms when I was diagnosed and I was lucky the kit picked up my cancer early. I got the 'all clear' from my specialist in August and now the only reminder I have of my battle with bowel cancer is my abdominal scar.
"I plead to my fellow Australians to do the bowel screening test before it's too late," Mr Clarke said.
The National Bowel Cancer Screening Program began in 2006 and has been progressively expanding the age groups invited to participate. With the addition of 70 and 74 year olds in 2015, the age groups currently invited to participate are people aged 50, 55, 60, 65, 70 and 74. By 2020, all Australians aged 50 to 74 will be invited to participate every two years.

This film screening and panel discussion is one of a series exploring themes from the exhibition, Jews, Money, Myth at the Jewish Museum London (19 March – 7 July), developed in collaboration with the Pears Institute for the study of Antisemitism
|Professor Helen Beer, University College London; Dr Devorah Baum, University of Southampton
|Sun, May. 19, 2019
|1:45pm - 6:00pm
|Birkbeck, University of London, Room B33, Torrington Square main entrance, WC1E 7HX
|Free event for all:
At the turn of the twentieth century, in the midst of poverty, pogroms, and revolutionary politics, Tevye, a poor Jewish dairyman from a small town (or shtetl) in the Russian Empire, struggles to provide for his family and to withstand the threats of social change. His three oldest daughters present a particular challenge. They shun his plans to secure each a good husband through the local matchmaker - they wish to marry for love. Each one's choice of husband moves further from Jewish faith and tradition. But 'without our tradition', Tevye fears, 'our lives would be as shaky as a fiddler on the roof'. This critically acclaimed musical (Norman Jewison, 1971) is based on stories written by the canonical Yiddish writer Sholem Aleichem. With wit and exuberence, Fiddler on the Roof, remembered most for the song 'If I were a rich man', captures an imagined world of the shtetl.
Event Programme
1.45 - 4.45 Film screening
4.45 - 5.00 Break
5.00 - 6.00 Panel discussion
In the panel discussion speakers will explore Jewish life in Eastern Europe as it is represented in the film and its bearing on the experience of 'money' and its absence in the shtetl.
About the speakers: Dr Helen Beer is a native Yiddish speaker and lecturer in Yiddish at University College London. She has published on modern Yiddish literature. Dr Devorah Baum is an Associate Professor in English Literature and Critical Theory at the University of Southampton, her recent book Feeling Jewish: A Book for Just About Anyone (Yale University Press, 2017), explores fiction, film, and memoir to explore feelings that have been stereotypically associated with modern Jews.
This film is being shown in a lecture theatre, not a cinema. The lecture theatre is not equipped to accept latecomers once the film has begun and the lights are down. For safety reasons, therefore, latecomers cannot be admitted. Please arrive in good time.

Equitable Distribution in New Jersey
New Jersey is an "equitable distribution" state, which means that the marital assets and debts are to be divided in a fair and just manner given the parties' relative contributions and sacrifices to the marriage. It does not mean that they will be divided evenly or 50/50. New Jersey courts apply a list of specific statutory factors to determine how much of the marital estate each partner receives at the conclusion of the divorce. Here is how equitable distribution in New Jersey is determined:
Equitable Distribution in New Jersey
- The duration of the marriage;
- The age and physical and emotional health of the parties;
- The income or property brought to the marriage by each party;
- The standard of living established during the marriage;
Download Our FREE Divorce Guide
Equitable Distribution in New Jersey
- Any written agreement made by the parties before or during the marriage concerning an arrangement of property distribution;
- The economic circumstances of each party at the time the division of assets becomes effective;
- The income and earning capacity of each party, including educational background, training, employment skills, work experience, length of absence from the job market, custodial responsibilities for children, and the time and expense necessary to acquire sufficient education or training to enable the party to become self-supporting at a standard of living reasonably comparable to that enjoyed during the marriage;
- The contribution by each party to the education, training or earning power of the other; the contribution of each party to the acquisition, dissipation, preservation, depreciation or appreciation in the amount or value of the marital property, as well as the contribution of a party as a homemaker;
Equitable Distribution in New Jersey
- The tax consequences of the proposed distribution to each party;
- The present value of the property;
- The need of a parent who has physical custody of a child to own or occupy the marital residence and to use or own the household effects;
- The debts and liabilities of the parties;
- The need for creation, now or in the future, of a trust fund to secure reasonably foreseeable medical or educational costs for a spouse, partner in a civil union couple or children;
- The extent to which a party deferred achieving their career goals.
If you have any questions about how the interplay of these statutory factors might affect your divorce, do not hesitate to contact us today. We will work with you to establish a property division plan that you and your spouse can attempt to agree to, if possible, so that the decision rests in your hands rather than the court's.

25 years of Fourth Grade Museum Day
By Dianne Girmus
The Nebraska Signal
Museums are fun and educational for all ages in different ways.
Fourth graders in Fillmore County have been learning about their heritage at the annual Fillmore County Museum of Fairmont since 1994 and last Tuesday they celebrated the 25th Anniversary of the Fillmore County Fourth Grade Museum Day.
This special museum event originated through the joint-efforts of Janet Stephenson, former Geneva Elementary School fourth grade teacher, and the late Ruth Black, museum curator and leading spokeswoman for the museum at that time. Stephenson, who still coordinates the event today said, "We decided we needed to show the county history and get the message out—to make the public more aware."
Due to the chilly temperature, the fun, educational, learning stations, usually held outdoors, were moved inside this year, but that didn't dampen the spirit of the event. The 55 students in attendance were divided into six groups which were rotated through the stations and tours, which included: the Ashby and McClellan Buildings, the Country School Room, Soap and Butter-Making Stations, the Homesteader Presentation and the Quilting Station. The day ended with a sing-along of folk music featuring string instruments with David Lynn of York.
Doug Rung, President of the Fillmore County Historical Society, said the Ashby Building, the original building of the museum was part of the Fairmont Creamery Company until 1885 and then was purchased by Dr. S. F. Ashby who made it into a doctor's office and small hospital. Drs. A. A. Ashby and Dr. Charles F. Ashby also practiced there.
In 1994, the building was donated to the Fillmore County Historical Society to be used as a museum to preserve Fillmore County's history and heritage. Historical artifacts were donated, items were catalogued and put on display. Rung said there is a big variety of items.
"The rooms contain medical supplies and equipment used by the Ashby doctors…musical instruments, World War I memorabilia, dolls and toys, kitchen items, various period-dresses, creamery items and there is a special room for doing family and county history," Rung said.
A very special, one-of-a-kind item that is quite popular, can be seen in the medical supply/equipment area.
When a group of Shickley students were asked what they liked about the Ashby Building, they responded with strange looks and grins on their faces, "Dr. Ashby's appendix!" (Belonging to the late Dr. Charles F. Ashby and suspended in a bottle of formaldehyde.)
Lakota Tubberville, age nine of Shickley, said he really liked the Ashby Building.
He said, "There was a map of Shickley in the old-days and also an old year book with photos that looked really different than the ones today."
Alexianna Lathan, 10 of Shickley, liked the mannequin (mother) taking care of the baby doll in the carriage—another unique Ashby Building exhibit.
The students were intrigued as they watched soap being made with melted lard, lye and water. They even got to help stir the mixture. One Geneva student, Brinleigh Foos, age 10, makes soap at home and was excited for another experience to do so, outside of her home.
At the Homestead Presentation Station, students learned about living on the "bleak" prairie and heard a story of how one young lady received flower seeds from her sister, who lived back East, to bring color to their homestead. In the Country School Room, they learned about immigrants settling in the U. S. due to the Homestead Act of 1862.
Rung said the second museum building, the McClellan Building, donated by Beth Wilkins, is divided into historical stores and shops of the county's history and includes a hat shop, telephone office, optometry office, one room school house, funeral parlor, electronic display, household furniture displays, farm tool display and a working soda fountain from Exeter. Rung said the historical society purchased the corner building adjoining the McClellan Building within the past 10 years. A doorway was opened between the buildings and renovated to enlarge the museum.
Rung said, "This addition includes: memorabilia from the former Fillmore County Army Airfield, photography instruments, postal equipment, military uniforms, a doll house and the most recent addition, a bank teller cage. It's named "The Ruth Black Room" in memory of the late Ruth Black, museum curator and spokeswoman.
Owen Beavers, age 10 of Shickley, said he liked the McClellan Building because he saw a lot of World War II items and he enjoys history like that.
The Butter-Making Station was enjoyed by everyone, being a hands-on experience of shaking cream and salt until it solidified. Joey Stoner, age 10 of Geneva, said he enjoyed making it because he got to shake it for a long time and that it looked good when it was finished. At the Quilting Station, the students each designed their own nine-patch quilt block.
Stephenson said that in spite of the weather, the day went very smoothly, even though the event had to be held inside. Stephenson believes it is an important event and she is very grateful for all the support received this year and previously.
"It's good to educate our children in local history, and, hopefully, instill the importance of it. Through the years, I've truly enjoyed this. It's always been a big success and we've received a lot of favorable comments—that's why we keep going with it," Stephenson said. "The day would not be possible without the dedication of all the volunteers, most being board members, who help every year and the grants we receive from the Fillmore County Foundation and the Tous Charitable Foundation."

After my last entry that contained information out of the Howard Township Council meetings from the 1850s, the text jumps to this information from 1908.
After the Women's Institute was organized in 1908, they began looking about for a meeting place with the result that the community began the renovations of the old Town Hall. It was decided to move the existing building up the street to the lot at the corner of Talbot and Main Street. Here a new section was added and other changes made. By 1914 it was ready for the official opening.
Following is the account of the opening which appeared in the press:
The opening of the new hall at Morpeth last evening was attended by one of the largest crowds that ever assembled in the old historic village. The villagers and farmers with their wives, sons and daughters from a wide radius were out in force to honour the occasion in spite of the storm.
At least four hundered persons sat down to the fine spread provided by the ladies and all enjoyed the feast of good things on the bill of fare. There was an abundance of everything for everybody and enough left over for a second supper to be served this afternoon.
For the programme the auditorium, which will accommodate 400 persons, was taxed to the limit. Despite the crowd there was not the slightest disorder during the evening which was one of the most enjoyable imaginable.
Mr. P. H. Bowyer occupied the chair and in his opening address congratulated all concerned in the erection of the new hall which he pronounced the largest and best equipped rural hall in the county, a credit to the people of Morpeth and the southern part of the Township of Howard. With its spacious auditorium, small meeting room and spacious cloak rooms all heated and lighted with free natural gas, the new building would long stand as a monument to the enterprise and perseverance of those who conceived the project and carried it to successful completion. In this good work the Morpeth Women's Institute had played a leading part and deserved the thanks of the community.
Among the speakers called on and who delivered brief congratulatory addresses were the Rev. Mr. Hopper, Reeve Leatherdale, Deputy Reeve Shewburg, Councillor W. A. Walters (a former reeve), Clerk McDonald of Howard and ex-Warden W. C. Sifton. The Rev. Mr. Hawkins, who was down for an address, was unable to be present.
Mr. and Mrs. Goulet in songs and duets, Misses Wilkinson and Guilds, supplied the vocals and instrumental music part of the programme in a most pleasing manner, and Miss McPherson's readings were much appreciated, all receiving numerous encores.
The proceeds, with the tickets at the low price of 25 cents, amounted to about $100. The Hall opening from every point of view was a great success.
Following is a copy of an official document of the Township of Howard. It was written in 1912.

Pork Industry Focuses on Feed Ingredients to Combat African Swine Fever Threat
Producers urged to ask questions of feed suppliers
DES MOINES, IA – September 4, 2018 – With the expansion of the current outbreak of African swine fever (ASF) in China, the National Pork Board, along with the National Pork Producers Council (NPPC), the American Association of Swine Veterinarians (AASV), the Swine Health Information Center (SHIC) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), are working even more closely together to help keep the United States free of ASF and all other foreign animal diseases (FADs). This includes focusing on the importation of feed ingredients, a key area of potential high risk of disease transport.
"Keeping trade-limiting foreign animal diseases, such as ASF, out of the United States is critical to pork producers," said Steve Rommereim, National Pork Board president and a producer from Alcester, South Dakota. "We all need to improve the overall level of FAD preparedness. We hope for the best, but we must prepare for the worst." Continue reading

Meandering through the marshes
Following the Saxon Shore from Faversham to Teynham, KentIn need of solitude I decided to visit the remoteness of the North Kent Marshes, and wasn't disappointed. An isolated area of windswept beauty with much of interest to ornithologists in particular, I followed the Saxon Shore Way from Faversham, along the banks of the Swale, passing much of historical and wildlife interest on the way to Conyer before heading south to Teynham and the train home.
Start: Faversham Station TR015609
Finish: Teynham Station TQ956631
Length: 12 miles/5 hours
How to get there: Both stations are served by Southeastern services from London Victoria to Dover Priory and Ramsgate taking roughly 75 minutes. Alternatively, the new High Speed services from St Pancras International reach Faversham in slightly over an hour.
Leaving the town behind, I follow the Saxon Shore Way along the west bank of Faversham Creek, passing, on the opposite bank, Standard Quay and the Grade II listed Oyster Bay House, built in around 1845 as a store for hops awaiting shipping to London. Then beyond, wide views to distant horizons open up all round. The path follows a levée, which divides the landscape on my right – the waters of the creek, edged with patches of saltmarsh – from that on my left: extensive meadows, lush green with crested dog's-tail, splashed with darker tufts of rushes and sedges in the damper parts; and an abundance of wildflowers – bright yellow buttercups and bird's-foot trefoil, and, here and there, the delicate pink pea-flowers of grass vetchling. No trees or shrubs, save for the occasional stunted and wind-blown hawthorn.
I find Faversham to be a very pleasant market town, with an attractive and busy High Street of mixed Georgian and timber-framed Tudor buildings (and the occasional incongruous 1970s concrete and brick structure, but the less said about those the better), that brings me to a bustling market place located in around and under the Guildhall erected in 1603. Faversham's defining maritime history goes back to Roman times, leading to it gaining the status as one of the Confederation of Cinque Ports around the 12th Century. Substantial trade in wool and locally produced gunpowder followed, with the port being an important calling-point for Thames barges. Nowadays, the majority of vessels making their way down Faversham Creek to the town are pleasure ships. But one well-established local trade that survives is brewing – the town's proximity to the hop fields of Kent (noted on a previous walk) made it an important centre for the industry, and an ideal location for the Shepherd Neame brewery, established in 1698 and still producing delicious traditional ales over 300 years later.
I pause for a while to take in the sounds around me. The sssshhhh-ing reeds, bending in the wind. The seemingly random melodious burbling of skylarks, the epitome of an English summer. The harsh staccato squawking of black headed gulls. Meanwhile, a solitary Little Egret, a comparative new-comer to these shores, hunts silently for fish along the ditches. The scurvy-grass (so named as it was eaten by sailors as a source of Vitamin C to ward off scurvy, but also erroneously as it's not a member of the grass family) that lines the edge of the creek is now becoming mixed with bladderwrack, indicating the proximity to the sea.
Yet despite the naturalness of this landscape, the ground beneath my boots is almost entirely man-made. This area, known as Ham Marshes, was reclaimed from the sea in the middle ages, prior to which it made for a sheltered harbour, possibly in use during Roman times. The reclamation has provided good grazing: inquisitive cows look up from their feeding and wander in my direction, some followed by calves that hurry along to avoid being left behind, in search of company, or something more appetising than grass, or who knows what. But they are thwarted by ditches, lined with a soft palisade of common reed, that lie between them and the bank, peppered with last year's teasel heads, along which I make my way.
The path soon leads me to Hollowshore, originally known as Holly Shore or Holy Shore, a name that possibly alludes to religious connotations (maybe because a leading churchman made landfall there), rather than the presence of holly, of which there is none. At Hollowshore can be found the Shipwright's Arms, a contender for Kent's most isolated pub; it seems rude not to acknowledge this so I pop inside, ducking to avoid the low beams, for a pint of Goacher's Shipwrecked, only available at a small number of pubs locally and here served direct from the cask behind the bar. Enjoying a pint on top of the levée that separates the pub from the Creek is very pleasant, as swallows dart across the water, inches from its surface; the only sound is the 'ting-ting-ting' of the wind plucking at the sheets of moored yachts,Hollowshore is the point at which Faversham Creek meets Oare Creek, their combined waters flowing towards the Swale. But to cross Oare Creek I must head inland. The path heads southwest, walled on either side with pink dog-rose and hawthorn blossom and sweet-smelling privet. Then past another boatyard, the odd tug moored adjacent to the modern yachts, with rusting machinery and a sail loft clad as much in Virginia Creeper as in ageing weatherboard. Across the Creek, the spire of St Peter's Church peeps above the surrounding trees, its bell chiming steadily.
By way of the bridge that crosses Oare Creek at the village of the same name, I can at last head northwards again. Another Little Egret is fishing in the ditches of the damp meadows to my left. Passing Hollowshore on the opposite bank, the path heads beneath buzzing power lines, suspended on huge pylons to cross Oare Creek and striding away into the distance either side. In the waters of the creek, a trawler rusts away and the timbers of a clinker-built boat disappear slowly into the mud from whence they came, the ribs looking like those of some prehistoric mud-dwelling leviathan.
This is big sky country; the horizon in every direction is miles distant. To the north-east, racing yachts with brightly coloured billowing spinnakers as though they're puffing their chests out proudly, and a crimson-sailed barge make good use of the strong breeze, and beyond, maybe some 8 to 10 miles from here, the turbines of the Kentish Flats Windfarm turn industriously. Looking west, the gentle curve of the Swale Bridge, opened in July 2006 as an additional crossing point (along with the Kingsferry Bridge which still carries the railway over the Swale) from the Isle of Sheppey to the mainland, is visible in the distance.
From here, the Saxon Shore Way enters Oare Marshes Local Nature Reserve, an important wetland known for its birdlife. And any ornithologist watching from one of the many hides today would not be disappointed: I see Shelducks, Oystercatchers, Lapwings and what could be a Willow Warbler (I'm no expert).
Until the Second World War, another means of crossing the Swale existed – Harty Ferry ran from Oare Marshes to the Isle of Harty on Sheppey. A causeway, marked with crude timber posts, still exists at the crossing point. The ebbing tide, revealing glistening mudflats delicately laced with a filigree of channels and populated with whelks and crabs, allows me to walk along the causeway almost a quarter of the way to Sheppey.
Heading west, traces of the extensive local gunpowder and explosives industry are visible inland, Oare Marshes being the site of the Cotton Powder Company's factories. Gunpowder was first produced in the Faversham area in 1573, followed by high explosive ('gun cotton') soon after its invention in 1846. Production continued, peaking in the First World War until the factories, at risk of German attack or even invasion, were closed in 1934 and production moved to Scotland. The area is peaceful now, but on April 2nd 1916, any silence was shattered by 'The Great Explosion':
At 14:20 on Sunday 2nd April 1916, 109 men and boys were killed by an explosion at the Explosives Loading Company factory at Uplees, near Faversham. 15 tons of TNT and 150 tons of ammonium nitrate blew up when some empty sacks caught fire.
So great was the explosion that windows across the Thames estuary in Southend were shattered and the tremor was felt in Norwich. The crater made by the explosion was 40 yards across and 20 feet deep.
The area given over to explosives production was vast (a map can be found here) and a light railway was even built to deliver workers to the factories. Raw materials – cotton waste and sulphuric and nitric acids – and finished products were transported by sea and, while I can't find any trace of the railway, remains of the jetties and docks, which also served brick and tile industries, are visible. At Dan's Dock, rusting metalwork is losing its grip on decaying silver-grey timbers; further west, can be found the concrete of the CPC Jetty, gradually being colonised by brightly coloured lichens and the golden flowered Stonecrop.Pausing here a while for rest and refreshment, I watch the racing yachts lower their spinnakers as they round a buoy in the channel and return eastwards. The gentle rustle of shimmering white poplar leaves provides an aural backdrop to the 'pip-pip-pip' of a feeding oystercatcher.
The path onwards narrows through waist-tall grasses and an abundance of even taller Yellow Goat's Beard. It being mid-afternoon, most of the flower heads on the latter are closed (this explaining its other common name: Jack-Go-To-Bed-At-Noon), but where the flowers have set seed, I can't resist grabbing one of the large dandelion clocks and throwing it skywards to watch the seeds lazily drift away on the breeze. Just as I'm marvelling at this fascinating adaptation, a dragonfly settles nearby as if to draw my attention to its equally wonderful wings, so delicately lacy in appearance.
Through a gate, and the tall herbs give way to low sheep-cropped turf. At the sluice that is the outlet for the curiously-named Luddenham Gut, a solitary Little Egret is feeding at the water's edge. They're not the most abundant specie nationally, but this is the fourth one I've seen today. A flock of sheep ahead of me trot away apprehensively in the same direction in which I'm heading, only to repeat this course of action as I draw near to them once more. 'No, go to the left. To the left. If you go straight on, I'll catch you up again. Go to the left. Not straight on. No, not to the right either, you'll end up very muddy that way. To the left. Yes that's it, to the left.' Not the brightest of animals.
The mudflats revealed by the receding tide, scattered with listing boats at anchor, lie between the shore and the South Deep, the navigable channel that separates Fowley Island from the mainland. A series of inland long narrow lagoons, their edges softened by reeds, run along the boundary of the now disused Conyer Rifle Range which according to the 1908 Sittingbourne, Milton and District Directory is
fitted with two movable targets….. Shooting can take place at ranges up to 1,000 yards. It is used for practice, class firing, and competitions by Volunteers, Yeomanry, and Army Reserve men.
A brick and concrete structure seems to be all that remains, and I'm interested in exploring further, but drainage channels prevent access (and I don't want to risk a 'fine not exceeding FIVE POUNDS' under Section 17(2) of the Military Lands Act 1872, as defined in the 1966 byelaws for the site – though it doesn't seem to worry the pair of oystercatchers that perch here).A short distance further on, the path leaves the shoreline and heads inland. The map shows a 'Works' to the west, but nothing seems to remain and the area is now a mass of hawthorn scrub, home to a population of sunbathing rabbits, and which provides welcome shade from the sun to which I've been exposed all day.
On to the village of Conyer. What I see of it is slightly disappointing: modern uninspiring housing, and access to the banks of Conyer Creek prevented by a plethora of 'Private' and 'No Access' signs erected by riparian owners whose actions would raise the ire of Jerome K Jerome:
The selfishness of the riparian proprietor grows with every year. If these men had their way they would close the river Thames altogether. They actually do this along the minor tributary streams and in the backwaters. They drive posts into the bed of the stream, and draw chains across from bank to bank, and nail huge notice-boards on every tree. The sight of those notice-boards rouses every evil instinct in my nature. I feel I want to tear each one down, and hammer it over the head of the man who put it up, until I have killed him, and then I would bury him, and put the board up over the grave as a tombstone.
I mentioned these feelings of mine to Harris, and he said he had them worse than that. He said he not only felt he wanted to kill the man who caused the board to be put up, but that he should like to slaughter the whole of his family and all his friends and relations, and then burn down his house. This seemed to me to be going too far, and I said so to Harris; but he answered:
"Not a bit of it. Serve `em all jolly well right, and I'd go and sing comic songs on the ruins."
from Three Men In A Boat, 1889
Doubly disappointing is the sight that greets me at The Ship Inn: having been looking forward to stopping for a pint, I arrive to find it surrounded by fencing and closed for refurbishment.
The Saxon Shore Way heads further west along the opposite bank of Conyer Creek – and maybe this is where Conyer shows itself at its best to the visitor – but I leave the long distance path behind and head south, through meadows and past orchards with regimented rows of pears and spindlebush apple trees.
Past busy allotments, attractive cottages (presumably built for railway workers) and a converted oast house I arrive at Teynham station, the level crossing at which still has a crossing keeper. This is however the only sign of a romantic railway past, as the station is modern and drab, its original brick-built buildings and lattice iron footbridge (erected by the London Chatham & Dover Railway in 1858) having been demolished and replaced with what can only be described as a bus shelter. Luckily I don't have long to wait for the train home.

After oral surgery, it is important to follow all the instructions provided by your oral surgeon or wisdom tooth dentist.
Here are some guidelines to speed your recovery and healing.
To limit bleeding after oral surgery, your wisdom tooth dentist or oral surgeon may place a gauze pack on the wisdom tooth extraction site.
This should be left in place for 30 to 45 minutes after leaving the office.
Bleeding might continue after the pack is removed.
If it does, follow these instructions:
A blood clot should form in the wisdom tooth extraction site; this needs to be protected for proper healing. Healing is a delicate process and requires the restriction of certain activities; otherwise the blood clot can be dislodged.
Your oral surgeon or wisdom tooth dentist may give you a plastic ice pack to apply to your face on the way home. A cold compress helps reduce swelling. Apply either a cold compress or cold, moist cloth periodically. Switch to moist heat (a warm wash cloth) 24 hours after oral surgery. Check with your oral surgeon or wisdom tooth dentist regarding how often and how long to use a compress.
Your oral surgeon or dentist may prescribe medication to prevent infection and control pain. Carefully follow the instructions. If you experience severe pain, swelling, bleeding, fever, nausea or vomiting, contact your wisdom tooth dentist.
Your mouth should be gently rinsed (not vigorously) with warm salt water the day after oral surgery. Add ½ teaspoon salt to one-cup warm water. Be sure to rinse after eating to keep food particles out of the extraction site.
Brush your teeth twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush. Brushing your tongue is also advised to eliminate bad breath and an unpleasant taste that often accompanies oral surgery. Floss at least once a day, too.
Follow your dentist or oral surgeon's instructions carefully after dental surgery.
Contact your wisdom tooth dentist or oral surgeon if you have any of the following problems:
Oral Surgery Guideline for Consumers
by Brian J. Gray, DDS, MAGD, FICO
Impacted wisdom teeth can be a serious threat to good dental health. Wisdom tooth impaction happens when the developing tooth doesn't come in straight.
An impacted wisdom tooth might never even erupt -- that is, break through the gums. If there is not enough room in the patient's mouth for the new molar, the tooth has no place to go, leading it to push against other teeth or tissues.
Impacted teeth can cause serious tooth pain, face or jaw pain, even headaches. They can lead to orthodontic problems, as other teeth move around to try to make room for them. Crooked teeth, in turn, leave a person more vulnerable to other dental problems.
Teeth impaction is classified either as a soft impaction (when the new tooth is still developing) or a bony impaction (when the developing tooth has begun to harden). Wisdom tooth removal is far easier when it is done earlier rather than later; bony impactions can sometimes require difficult wisdom tooth surgery.
During general dental check-ups, the dentist will monitor the development of a teen's wisdom teeth. If the teeth become impacted, the dentist will suggest wisdom tooth extraction. Patients in the most difficult situations will need to be referred to or to find a wisdom tooth dentist or oral surgeon who can perform their wisdom tooth surgery.
Only a dentist can determine the state of a patient's wisdom teeth. Have the teeth started to develop? Are they heading towards impaction? Are they already impacted? With the help of an x-ray, your wisdom teeth dentist will be able to answer those questions - and suggest a course of treatment.

Thanks to Blizzard adding the WC3 assets, I have remade Footman Frenzy in SC2. A few things here and there are changed, but in general it is very similar. You can find the map in the US region, search for 'Footman Frenzy', it's the one with the footman frenzy text logo.
Count me in, and mention how you guys are planning to do this thing. You're not going to be able to accommodate all the players, so how will the selection work?
I am not usually a necromancer, but the way to do it is to loop via percentages. IE:
Set animation time to 100%
Set animation time to 99%
Set animation time to 0%
Play default animation
As the title says, I'm looking for a Art Designer to partner up on a map.
Details on the project will be given on contact.
Prior experience is not required, but preferred.
This guide isn't really accurate. In fact, It's like reading one of the Twilight books - fictional and shitty. I don't bash tutorials, and try to give good and constructive feedback whenever I like something and want to help the creator improve it.
I'm not going to go through the whole thing, but first off - let's start with the title.
"Common sense"?
There's no common sense about it. The factors are:
Luck: If someone likes your theory, and happens to view the forum subsection while your post is still on the front page, THEY WILL JOIN.
Description: Providing a decent description.
"The Big Two" - Rename it to "The Big Four".
-Data Editing (This one seems fair enough)
-Level Design
This is the MOST, MOST, MOST important part of any single game. How the hell did you put it under something that doesn't matter?
Google these games:
Neverwinter Nights
Rest of the TES series
Fallout series
Halo series
Fable series
Zelda series (Although, arguably, this one is based on the Lore, a component you put under "The rest that don't really count")
These are just from the top of my head!
Do you really think that unless these games could have been so successful without beautiful level design and lore?
The scripting plays an equal part in these games, but according to you, it's 3x as important as Lore and Level Design.
"The Small Two" is also almost completely incorrect.
In general games: Games would be nothing without art, so these two are equal to Lore, Code, "Data Editing" (More accurately stated as game balancing), and Level Design.
In SC2, however, those are almost not important, since the game has its' own custom art assets.
The thing is, you put art above Lore and Level Design, which is ridiculous.
I have no idea who stickied it. It was obviously a mod, but what does that say about the professionalism of this site?
Yes, I read the whole thing, but honestly it would be faster to rewrite this myself then show and explain each mistake.
I recommend taking this down from a sticky - people may actually follow this guide.
Also - I am an indie developer working with several friends on a java game. Each of us is specialized in one aspect (Which seems to be the only information this "guide" managed to get correct), so I'm not drawing straws here - It wasn't easy to find other people who were as interested in the project as me.
This post certainly seems like a hammer to the head, but It's not. If Dogmai actually fixes the above, I'll go through the whole "guide".
There's also a trigger error, but I don't have enough time to investigate it.
Love the sliding though.
I'm going to try my best not to be an asshole, but here's what I think (It's bridled):
I also think that you guys (dogmai and dryeyce), should read this post, as it's unbiased and gives constructive criticism (Although I felt that the main con should be stated aggressively, so you do not do that again).
Criticism (Cons and how-to-fix):
This is also based on what I've read on the first 3 posts of this thread, and on this page.
The video was very confusing. The majority of what I saw involved psi storm, although I did see some spell that created a blue circle.
The song was also ill-picked - It adds to the chaos because of the high-and-random notes.
"Unique Game Modes"
Team Deathmatch
Team Survivial
Bounty Hunters
Capture the Flag
FFA Phantom
FFA Survival
Under the title, I think that only Bomberman (Not really sure what It does, but it at least sounds unique), and FFA Phantom fit that category, excluding any others you will release. All of the others have been featured by hundreds of games many times, and I'm not only talking about SC2.
I have nothing to say against or for the items and power-ups, since they have not been disclosed yet.
In my opinion, the Rock/Paper/Scissors mechanic has worked out well for few games, but this is not a flaw. If you can get this to work, then, obviously, it will complement the game.
Portals an GCD - Nothing new, and I see portals as a problem maker which would lead to frustration (I reccomend replacing them with ramps, because what happens if you're about to kill, and walk on a portal? No coming back for ten seconds, and even if you could, your enemy is gone or dead from another. The same goes for catching enemies, you are chasing them, they turn a corner.. And there are 2 portals.. Which do you pick? (This may not happen due to the level design, but the first still applies, and portals generally do not fit hero arenas).
Why is the quick-shield a game feature? It seems to be more like an escape ability (Unless it took so much work as to call it a feature?)
Heroes, (In my opinion) are oversized. I recommend lowering the scale by .2 - .4, dependent on the model.
In the pyro video, I saw that the ability researching was done through very small "Buttons" (Not sure, couldn't see). If you're in a fight, and you gain a level, you have to click on that small section (Assuming that's what upgrades the abilities), and misclicking could potentially lose the fight for you.
Create a custom dialog, and a custom message system. Not only will you be bringing in new features, SC2's system cuts off text very quickly.
Change the colors for floating text dependent of the damage type (In the videos you have numbers spamming, and I couldn't tell where the damage stemmed from).
I watched the other hero video, Morbius, and here's some feedback:
Fix the numbers under each requirement, if you don't know how to do that, you're free to pm me @5pm - 9pm est (The reason I assume you don't know how to do that is because many map-makers have that bug in their maps, so don't worry - you're not the first, nor the last).
"Water Globes", "Combo Points", "Swords", whatever you want to call them. They're (In my opinion) very overused. There are many unexplored fields with rogue-styled characters, and I recommend you find an alternative to combo points. I won't give out any ideas, because I'm using them in my map, but it only took me and my friend 2 hours of brainstorming to find a very good alternative.
The abilities don't fit to him. Where does water go in conjunction with Zeratul?
Dreyeyce, assuming you do have a degree in game design, why would you create water abilities and choose the Zeratul model?
In every game, character actions should fit the model and the theme of the game.
Zeratul is more suited to have stealth-based abilities, stemming around his blade and face-mask.
The ui looks pretty damn good (Nothing unique though, but that's thanks to the hundreds of RPGs and Hero Arenas, both in WC3, SC-SC2, and independent games).
The icons look good too.
Main Cons:
The pre-release was a bad choice. Had the presentation been better (Bad music choice, bad video orientation, you guys being very cocky (This is not in my opinion, many people feel similarly)), then people would be kinder to you.
By creating all this fuss, you gave people an expectation (and a lot of speculation) about the map, and how good it's going to be.
This is obviously NOT the case, as stated in the Cons and by the other 50 posts that feel the same way on this thread.
There are also an EXTREME amount of poor game-design choices, and that is only from watching 3 2-minute videos and reading two posts.
To fix the main cons, you should:
1 - Fuck the release date, do what blizzard does. Don't announce any release date. People will criticize you for announcing the map (something NO game company or indie modders should do more then a month from release, but they still do), but people will criticize you MUCH MORE, if you release a game that doesn't live up to the advertising (Which you guys spent a LOT of time on, from convincing the mods to news your images periodically, to creating videos and this thread).
2 - Stop acting cocky. You may be thinking, I don't act cocky, what is this guy saying?
A few examples:
Notably, in the video, near to the end, it says "Impressed?", and, quite frankly, I wasn't.
The whole of post #113.
I am sure that there are several more posts of that sort on this thread, but I am not going to go through and look for them, for my time and your pride.
Act modest, and react kindly when people appreciate your map.
That's pretty much it.
Edit: Morbius has a blink bug
You should've tried it out - yes.
UI - Display text crawl for (All players) with title Title, text Text, and max duration 3.0 seconds (play Birth Sound once, and loop Type Sound as characters type)
Makes it glow
Yes, I realize that this is impossible.
I checked every function that text uses, and none of them do anything.
Comparing text to text in order to create an ABC (If letter1 = a, then set stringLetter1 = a) does not work either, because it does not compare an actual value, but a link to a file, which obviously doesn't fit.
Anyone who is intrested in using text as a condition simply do the following:
Create a condition using any variable
Leave the window, and change variable type to "text"
Go back and you can now compare text, although it's mostly useless.
Well, there's still a tutorial on how to make a shitty version of String2Text.
Sorry if i got anyone's hopes up.
Wow.. I realize my mistake, my bad.
No, grenegg, I was confused with the (game text for (entered chat string)).
Looking for more ways.
Look man I haven't mapped in 8 months, this shit is blurry.
Also, for some reason it didn't upload to last post, should upload here.
Edit: Keuken, that may actually be beneficial.. back in wc3 they had maps where people had to do something or they were desynced, and now it is much easier to give people admin and vip statuses.
Edit 2: Now I can get some sleep..
Ok, I found it.
Download map below for the thing. You can see that it takes one argument of text and one of string.
Checking another native..
Edit: You don't need T2S for giving people admin
Edit 2: Ok I found one -
Data Table - Save (Screen button 1) as "Value" in the Global data table
Variable - Set Text = (Text of ("Value" from the Global data table) for 1)
"Value" is a string, which can be read by text.
00:00:02.19 Trigger Error in 'gt_S2TCore_Func': Could not get 'text' from parameter in 'UIDisplayMessage' (value: 65535)
Still looking, chances are slim though.

Markham Flood Control Program Rebates
Severe weather events are capable of overwhelming the Markham sewer system. This causes basement flooding resulting in property damage in addition to financial and emotional turmoil. Under heavy rainfall conditions, home flooding occurs in a number of ways:
- Direction connection of City sanitary of storm sewers. As these systems fill up they can overflow back into your home.
- Blocked or damaged sanitary or storm pipes between the home plumbing and City's sewers leading to backing up and flooding your home.
To help reduce flood damages the Markham City Council approved a Private Plumbing Protection Rebate Program which financially supports homeowners who install flood protection measures. Now, the City of Markham is offering rebates for older homes that have suffered basement flooding or are in high-risk areas. Property owners who install protection measures are eligible to receive City rebates, up to a maximum of $5,000 if they are eligible.
Are you eligible? If you meet the following criteria, you can save thousands on flood protection for your home. Don't worry though, Absolute Draining & Plumbing will help to make this process as easy as possible.
- Home is connected to the City's sewer system
- Your property is subject to any existing work orders, contraventions, or other outstanding municipal requirementts
- No owing tax payments, fees, or municipal fines
- Your downspouts have already been disconnected from the City sewer system
- Able to provide proper documentation to the City and comply with program requirements
- Obtained necessary permits for the new installation of flood protection measures
- Ensure that all work performed adheres to the Building Code Act
- Agree to sign a release form in favour of the City
You can save money on a variety of flood prevention devices:
- Backwater Valve (indoor) – Sanitary Pipe – Maximum rebate of $1,750

Markham Drain Contractor
Regular drain cleaning can prevent many serious problems in your plumbing and in your home. If you suspect a clogged drain, call us right away for a thorough drain inspection and cleaning. Drains that aren't cleaned regularly can back up and cause overflow water damage, mold, and other problems in your home that can be expensive to fix.
Not sure if your drains are starting to clog? When you notice things like water flowing back into the sink after you've rinsed the sink, or water draining very slowly in the tub or shower, or puddles of water near the dishwasher or the washing machine it means there is a clog in the drain somewhere.
Call one our customer care representatives immediately so that we can schedule drain cleaning and take care of that clog before it becomes a serious problem.
We Solve Clogged Drains
Clogged drains are not always obvious. That's why getting regular drain cleaning is a good idea. Regular drain cleaning will prevent any clogs from forming so that you don't end up with a burst pipe, water leak, or any other problem.
When our trained technicians clean your drains they also will inspect your plumbing using the latest drain camera to get deep inside the plumbing to look for leaks or clogs so they can be fixed before they cause a serious plumbing emergency.
Markham Water Service Upgrade
Upgrading your water service can really transform your home. Our professional plumbers can perform a water service upgrade on your home to improve water pressure and overhaul your current plumbing.
Fix Water Pressure Problems
If the water pressure in your home is not what it used to be, we can investigate and find the underlying cause of the issue. It could be that sediment in the water pipes is blocking the flow of water into your home.
Prepare For Home Upgrades
If you are planning an extensive home renovation that will include adding bathrooms or upgrading your existing bathrooms, it's a good idea to schedule an appointment for a water service assessment and upgrade. Modern bathroom appliances like jetted tubs and fancy multiple jet showers require a lot more water pressure and upgraded plumbing in order to work properly and many older homes just don't have the right plumbing to support those kinds of upgrades.
Call us and we will assess your current plumbing and tell you what kind of upgrade you need in order to carry out the plumbing upgrades of your dreams.
Markham Backwater Valve Installation
A backwater valve can solve many basement flooding problems. If you have noticed water in your basement or if you have had a flood in the basement before, you may be a good candidate for a backwater valve. A backwater valve will prevent sewer water from backing up into your home or your yard.
During the rainy season and the winter in our local area excessive water runoff can cause sewer water to flow back through the drainage pipe in your home. That can flood your basement or allow water to seep into the foundation of your home. Once water starts getting into the foundation of your home it can start to cause small cracks, especially during the winter when that water freezes and expands inside the foundation of your home. Over ground water can seriously weaken the foundation of your home.
Luckily, you can prevent flooding and foundation damage just by getting a backwater valve installed. A simple process will save you a lot of heartache, time and money down the line.
We are experts at installing backwater valves, especially on older homes. Call one of our friendly customer service reps today to discuss your home and your unique plumbing needs. Our technicians will be glad to come out and talk to you about your specific plumbing problems and the best way to fix them.
You can trust our technicians to do the best job making sure that you don't have to worry about your plumbing instead of just enjoying your home.For plumbing emergencies or for routine plumbing work and upgrades the Markham plumbers of Absolute Draining & Plumbing are here to help.

In response to my post about disgusting chicken-related issues, Christie asked, "In terms of killing the chickens (organic or otherwise), what would be a more humane way?"
Temple Grandin might be able to tell you. She's helped American slaughterhouses find more humane ways of killing cattle, pigs, and other livestock, although I'm not sure whether she's done any research with chickens. You can read more about Grandin and her work if you're interested; she's a fascinating person.
Humane slaughter is important, but it's hardly what concerns me most. Let's start by adding some historical context to this issue. In most parts of the world, meat was not a central element of the average person's diet until fairly recently. Harold McGee explains this in his book On Food and Cooking:
Human diet from about A.D. 1400 to 1800 was essentially vegetable, for economic reasons; at that time, agriculture fed from 10 to 20 times the population that could be supported by animals grazing on the same acreage. …In the 17th and 18th centuries, the majority of people on the European continent rarely took more than a quarter of the total calorie intake from meat. Often it was closer to 10%…
Americans today eat an unusually large amount of meat, thanks to our affluence. "With one fifteenth of the world's population," according to McGee, "the United States eats one third of the world's meat."
This dietary emphasis on meat comes at a steep environmental price. Feeding and watering livestock takes an enormous toll on agricultural resources. In 1997, according to a Cornell University report, the grain used to feed livestock in the United States could feed 800 million people. Alternatively, we could farm less intensively if we ate less meat–a far better idea, since America is losing its irreplaceable topsoil at an unsustainable rate. As the Cornell report notes, "Iowa has lost one-half its topsoil in only 150 years of farming—soil that took thousands of years to form." If our topsoil disappears, it will become difficult, if not impossible, to grow many crops. Millions would starve.
Our current situation is an anomaly. At some point, all of us will have to stop eating as much meat as we do, not because of ethics or health but as a practical necessity. Our current diet is leading us towards widespread famine.

New Hampshire Fish and Game hosted the 30th annual moose hunt lottery this morning. Names were selected from a computer generated system. 51 permits were issued to 6,850 applicants. The odds of getting one of these permits were 1 in 87 for residents of New Hampshire and 1 in 391 for out-of-state applicants.
Among the winners was Richard Tichko from Canterbury.
"I feel pretty excited. My wife is up in Pittsburgh fly fishing. She said if she won, I had to call her. Well I'm going to call her and tell her I won."
Tina Davenport of New Hampton says she wishes she had been drawn, but there's always next year.
Kyle Glenceross of Canterbury says he's been applying for 11 years and still has never been drawn. "Skunked for me again," he said.
The hunt this year will take place for nine days in early October.

I forgot how to multiply polynomials and a problem that requires this skill showed up on my hw that it due tomorrow.
Bummer for you , Dude......
I know
If you have a sample, someone can show you how it is done,.......
Ok, the problem I need solved is (4x+17)*(3x+2)
Multiply 4x times each of the terms in the second factor...then multiply 17 times each of the terms in the second factor...
then collect like terms:
4x*3x + 4x * 2 + 17 * (3x) + 17 * 2
12x^2 + 59x + 34 Just be careful when there is a negative sign involved!
thanks so much! It really helped me
I thought I was done and apparently, I have a division problem. (x^2-5x+6)/((2x-1)+(x/2)) is the problem.
Hey, DeathlyHallows!
It looks like you want to simplify \(\frac{x^2-5x+6}{\textcolor{red}{2x-1+\frac{x}{2}}}\) . Let's transform all the terms in the denominator such that they all have common denominators; this way, we will be able to add them together.
Notice that I have not changed the value of the expression; I just created a common denominator. Now, combine like terms.
\(\textcolor{red}{\frac{4x}{2}-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{x}{2}\\ \frac{5x}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\\ \frac{5x-1}{2}}\)
Therefore, \(\frac{x^2-5x+6}{2x-1+\frac{x}{2}}=\frac{x^2-5x+6}{\frac{5x-1}{2}}\) . Now, it is time to simplify.
\(\frac{x^2-5x+6}{\frac{5x-1}{2}}*\frac{2}{2}\\ \frac{2(x^2-5x+6)}{5x-1}\\ \frac{2(x-2)(x-3)}{5x-1}\)
Even after I factored the numerator completely, I did not find any common factors present in both the numerator and the denominator, so this expression is already in simplest form.

Quick and Easy Smothered Chicken
We love smothered chicken that we find in restaurants, but don't love the price or the fact that we live 30 minutes from any restaurants around. For years, I've made sauteed mushrooms for my family as a side dish that they absolutely love! I decided to come up with a smothered chicken using the mushrooms, and this is what I came up with... done in the time it would take us to drive to town, and tastes much better than anything you could order in a restaurant. When I make it for friends, they always ask for the recipe!
4 chicken breasts, pounded out to even thickness
1 large onion, sliced
1 - 8oz pkg mushrooms, sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
Salt, Black Pepper and Garlic Powder
3 oz pkg Real Bacon Bits
4 thick slices of Monterrey Jack Cheese or Pepper-Jack for a nice kick
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Heat about a tablespoon of oil (or spray with cooking spray) in a large sauce pan. Sprinkle Chicken Breasts with salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Add Chicken to the pan and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes per side or until done and no pink left in the center.
Caramelized a sliced onion in about a tablespoon of butter, 2 garlic cloves, minced and a tablespoon of soy sauce. Saute until the onions are golden brown.
Saute the mushrooms in a tablespoon of butter, 2 garlic cloves, minced and a tablespoon of soy sauce. Saute until the mushrooms have cooked off their juices and get a little color on them. (about 10 minutes)
When the chicken is done, place them in a casserole dish or baking pan and top with onions, mushrooms, bacon and cheese. Put the chicken in the oven for about 2 to 3 minutes or just long enough to melt the cheese.
Serve with a garden salad and some zesty garlic bread for a quick and easy supper!

Development of a chemical treatment for condensate blocking in tight gas sandstone
McCulley, Corey Alan
MetadataShow full item record
Gas wells suffer a decrease in productivity because of the formation of a liquid hydrocarbon "condensate" in the near wellbore area. This "condensate" forms near producing wells when the flowing pressure is below the reservoir fluid's dew point. Several methods have been shown to temporarily alleviate this problem, but eventually the condensate bank reforms and the productivity again decreases. The use of surfactants to alter the near wellbore wettability to neutral wetting is a potential longer term solution to liquid blocking in these reservoirs. This alteration increases the gas and liquid relative permeabilities and thereby the productivity by reducing the residual liquid saturation. This enhancement allows the accumulated liquid to flow and is durable as long as the wettability alteration is persistent. This solution has been shown to be successful through core flood experiments and field trials in high permeability sandstones, but no improvements had been observed in low permeability cores. As the global demand for energy increases, the petroleum industry has begun to develop unconventional (low permeability) assets, new techniques are needed to maintain and improve their productivity. Liquid blocking in these wells can have a much larger impact on both the gas and condensate production in such low permeability formations. Applying this technique increases both gas and condensate mobility and should increase the economic producing life of these wells. Core flood experiments were conducted to investigate the ability of a chemical treatment to alter the wettability of low permeability sandstones. Previous experimentation did not find any improvement because the increased capillary forces prevented the treatment solution from being easily displaced. This concealed the benefit achieved when the wettability was altered. These experiments recorded smaller relative permeability increases compared to higher permeability core floods, so super critical carbon dioxide was tested as an alternative solvent. While the new treatment was more injectable, it was not as successful at altering wettability. Progress has been made on a solution to liquid blocking in low permeability sandstones, but additional research needs to be completed to further optimize this method.

And I'm not just talking about hands on hips. Naturally, it looks like Katy loves touching her own breasts (and who wouldn't!?), but check out the way she's fondling her crotch. She just got to third base in front of a 50,000 people. I'm starting to think Katy Perry missed her true calling: Porn star.

@DeltakoshThank you!
@rjeThat is part of the playground system though, not part of this particular playgrounds code.
It looks like the raising CPU issue may have been a heat issue on this machine. I am still not sure what from that playground would drive it so hard. Do you have any optimization recommendations to curb cpu usage on that playground?
High CPU in the Playground
distraub posted a topic in Questions & AnswersI am getting pretty high CPU usage in this playground and can't figure out exactly why. When I profile most of the time is spent in _renderForCamera https://playground.babylonjs.com/#HRYQ1L#20 I was getting 40-42% cpu, but leaving it for a little while the cpu hits 100%+ Any ideas on what I can do would be apperciated.

Having an issue with Ray.intersectsMesh
distraub replied to distraub's topic in Questions & AnswersThank you @Amarth2Estel This does solve my issue, if I use multiPickWithRay and then check for the id of my mesh, then it works as expected. I was hoping intersectsMesh would work the same way. Here is an example https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#KNB069#3 If you intersectsMesh with those coordinates it seems to use the other end, which almost looks like it is shooting the ray from the target to the source and using that picked point.

Having an issue with Ray.intersectsMesh
distraub posted a topic in Questions & AnswersI am hoping someone can take a look at this, and let me know if I am using it wrong. I have 2 spheres that I have attached Rays to, they are both shooting at a target, and there is a large sphere in the way, called earth. When I change the position of the spheres, the pickedPoint that is returned by hitInfo on the Ray.intersectsMesh function seems to be giving me an incorrect Picked Point if my source has a negative Y position. The "source" ray is just fine, but the "alternate" ray seems to be getting a picked point that is on the wrong side of the earth. Any help would be appreciated, I put this in a playground so you can see what I mean. https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#KNB069

distraub replied to distraub's topic in Questions & AnswersHere is an idea of what I am going for, this is a crude way to do this, and it almost works. But I am sure there is a better way. If anyone can take a look and help, I would be very grateful. https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#2I0VXX#8 I am getting the arc based on using a mesh, rotating it with lookAt looking at the center of the earth, then using that angle to calculate control points for the arc. I was using a quadraticBezier first but switched to a Cubic Bezier because I was clipping at different locations. I am still clipping when at different places, have to figure out the right height for the control points I am sure this can all be accomplished with a great circle formula but my trig just isn't up to par for the task.

Are You Looking for an Expert Prenatal Care Doctor Near You? Look No Further! Our Experienced Obstetrician-Gynecologist Dr. David Afram & His Team Provide Prenatal Care Services to Patients in Manassas, Fairfax, and Haymarket, VA. Please Call Your Nearest Location to Schedule an Appointment.
As soon as you find out you're pregnant, you're more than likely overwhelmed with enjoyment and have a lengthy to-do list. One of the first aspects you need to address is getting medical care for you and your unborn baby. If you're looking for a prenatal care doctor near Fairfax, Haymarket, or Manassas, VA, Capital Women's Care may help.
What kind of doctor do you see for prenatal care?
While a general practitioner has the ability to provide pregnancy testing, you need care from a doctor who specializes in caring for expecting mothers. A majority of gynecologists are also obstetricians, which means they care for unborn babies and women during their pregnancy and even after. At Capital Women's Care, Dr. David Afram takes care of women's healthcare needs during every aspect of their lives, including pregnancy. Dr. Afram is an expert obstetrician-gynecologist who takes into consideration the needs of you while also ensuring your unborn baby remains healthy. Dr. Afram has experience with labor and delivery as well.
When should I go to the doctor to confirm pregnancy?
We advise women to get tested for pregnancy early. This prevents possible complications and can help a woman take care of herself optimally as soon as she knows she's pregnant. Generally, we advise women to schedule an appointment six to eight weeks into the pregnancy, unless she has a health concern that increases her risk for a miscarriage or other complications. At this visit, you'll not only receive a pregnancy test, but our obstetrician will provide you with a comprehensive examination. We'll monitor the baby's heartbeat and provide blood testing and a urinalysis.
How do I choose an obstetrician for pregnancy?
We recommend you figure out the hospital you plan to deliver at first based on their reputation and location to you. Then, you should look into the different obstetricians that serve that particular hospital. Once you have a list established, you need to research and see which obstetricians take your insurance. Keep in mind, if one is out of your network, you'll pay for a majority, if not all, the care you receive from this practitioner. After you narrow down your list, it's important to find reviews about the practitioners you're interested in. You may want to read reviews online or inquire about the practitioners your friends and family have used in the past, especially if this is your first child or you're new to the area. You want a doctor that's compassionate and willing to answer all of your questions. Additionally, you need a physician who has experience.
How many prenatal visits are necessary?
The schedule varies from patient to patient based on your risks, but you can expect to have between 10 to 15 appointments. Generally, you'll have one appointment each month between weeks four through 28. During weeks 28 to 36, you'll need to visit our office twice per month. Once you reach weeks 36 through 40, you'll have one appointment each week.
The first few appointments consist of us gathering your medical history, conducting some testing, and supplying you with education. You'll have your first sonogram between six to nine weeks. The second sonogram occurs between weeks 16 to 20, which is often when we can determine the gender of your baby. Typically, you'll have a third ultrasound in trimester three in order to determine the position and size of the baby as well as to evaluate your baby's movements.
Schedule your first prenatal exam with Dr. Afram of Capital Women's Care.
