Within the walls of Baalboden, beneath the shadow of the city's brutal leader, Rachel Adams has a secret. While other girls sew dresses, host dinner parties, and obey their male Protectors, Rachel knows how to survive in the wilderness and deftly wield a sword. When her father, Jared, fails to return from a courier mission and is declared dead, the Commander assigns Rachel a new Protector, her father's apprentice, Logan—the same boy Rachel declared her love for two years ago, and the same boy who handed her heart right back to her. Left with nothing but fierce belief in her father's survival, Rachel decides to escape and find him herself. But treason against the Commander carries a heavy price, and what awaits her in the Wasteland could destroy her. At nineteen, Logan McEntire is many things. Orphan. Outcast. Inventor. As apprentice to the city's top courier, Logan is focused on learning his trade so he can escape the tyranny of Baalboden. But his plan never included being responsible for his mentor's impulsive daughter. Logan is determined to protect her, but when his escape plan goes wrong and Rachel pays the price, he realizes he has more at stake than disappointing Jared. As Rachel and Logan battle their way through the Wasteland, stalked by a monster that can't be killed and an army of assassins out for blood, they discover romance, heartbreak, and a truth that will incite a war decades in the making.

Section IV
Bemidji State University functions on an academic semester system consisting of fall and spring semesters of approximately sixteen (16) weeks each, and a summer term. Semester credits earned during summer term may be applied toward the fulfillment of degree requirements.
Bemidji State University fosters the highest standards of academic integrity and the highest regard for truth and honesty. The attempt by students to present as their own any work not actually performed by them; collusion, fabrication, and cheating on examinations, papers, and other course-related work; stealing, duplicating, or selling examinations; substituting for others in class discussions or examinations; producing other student's papers or projects; knowingly furnishing false or misleading academic information to University officials or on official University records; and altering such information on official University records are considered violations of academic integrity and destructive to the central mission of the University. Students who violate academic integrity shall, after due process, be subject to University sanctions that may include failure on assignments and examinations and in courses, and suspension or expulsion. Established academic integrity policies, procedures, and sanctions are contained in the Student Handbook and should be communicated as widely as feasible in classes. Students should contact the graduate dean regarding academic grievance procedures.
Graduate credit for institutes and workshops (but not tours) may be recognized toward the completion of degree or certification requirements. A maximum of five (5) semester credits, or the equivalent of formal workshop courses in which a letter grade was earned, may be included in a degree program. Workshop course work may not be used singularly or in combination to satisfy a required core course or 6000-level course. Academic credit for tours will be awarded only when the tour is conducted by an academic department/program at Bemidji State University, a member of the graduate faculty participates in the evaluation of the student's performance, and the course(s) are approved by the Graduate Council.
The maximum number of graduate semester credits and courses that may be accepted in transfer is ten (10) semester credits or the equivalent. All course work to be considered as transfer courses in which a pass or superior grade was received will be recorded as elective credit only. To be included in a degree program, transferred course work must have been completed within seven (7) years before the awarding of the BSU master's degree. Transferred courses will apply for credit only; grades of transferred courses will not be included in the computation of the Bemidji State University grade point average. Transfer credit is accepted only from colleges and universities that are regionally or professionally accredited and from approved international universities that offer a master's degree program. All course work to be considered as transfer courses or substitutions must have the approval of the advisor, program director and/or department chair, and the Dean of the School of Graduate Studies.

By the time I actually post this it will more than likely be just after midnight on Thursday for me, but let's just pretend it's still Wednesday, k? K.
I've got a few recent releases here that I wanted to share. Most were released over the last couple of weeks and I kept an eye on them till I found the whole outfit that I wanted to put together.
First I've got the new military jacket that was released by Chemistry. Lots of colours available and you get a couple of different styles with each. I'm wearing the hip length, collared version but you also get a longer length and both of those without the collar too. I love that Chemistry tends to give these options with their clothes as you feel like you're getting real value for money. At only 250Ls this is one of the best buys for jackets that I've seen lately.
The loose fit denim shorts are a new mesh release from Gizza. They have a lovely little leather belt detail and the shorts are cut so that the pockets hang a little lower than the denim, making them that little bit different from others that are available elsewhere. These will be a great addition to your virtual wardrobe for not only this season, when you can pair them with tights or leggings, but the upcoming warming ones too!
The mesh top I'm wearing under the jacket is the city shirt from Drift. I won't say that this was easy to layer with the coat, because it wasn't. I wore the L in the coat and the XS in the top but still in certain poses some of the shirt would poke through on the arms, which was a bit annoying and I confess that I fixed it a bit in photoshop! It's definitely doable but the fit won't be perfect if you want to wear that shirt with the jacket – make sure you demo them together before you buy if that's what you want to do, so that you won't be disappointed!
I am so in love with this Lavinia hairstyle that Truth released over the weekend. Braids are mah thang yo, and this do is so cute without making me look like I'm trying to impersonate a teen. Really love, love!
Hair – Lavinia – Truth NEW
Skin – Amberly – Glam Affair

Hey guys! 🙂 It's Li Ying here. If you remember in a previous discussion, we AAM-ers thought it might be fun to write a song for David or perhaps about David. Inspiration for this came when Tracy posted the song It's Not Goodbye from the Vietnamese Archies.
I am still a newbie at this songwriting business. I only started getting into it seriously 6 months ago after finishing college. But since then I have embarrassingly sent a set of my lyrics and some music written on manuscript paper to David in Chile. Urrgghh.. Thankfully I found out soon after (might have been from Kari) that David can't read music notes. Pheww… but I hope he forgot that first letter, it was super awkward. *cringe*
Anyways, I was watching some videos on songwriting and I thought I might share them here. I mean, I'm not sure about you all, since I criticise David a lot about his songwriting, I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't learn more about it myself. Also, I thought we might like to learn about the craft which is essentially (supposedly) David's main job description (I hope lah) as a musician.
So what goes on behind every song? Each person has their own method. Here's a couple of vids I found on my favourite songwriting blog allaboutsongwriting.com which is run by an experienced songwriter, Corey Stewart. You can head over there and have a look around. His articles are really helpful. He's also very happy to answer your questions so if you have any just leave a comment.
The method in the videos above is quite straightforward I think. The videos show you how to start writing from the lyrics. It's a lot more systematic than how I do things: getting out of bed at 2 a.m. to write a word or a phrase down after suddenly thinking about it. 😛
Here's another "how to write a song" video. This one's from Marie Digby. She's probably a more familiar name to us.
This time, her method is by writing the music first as opposed to writing the lyrics first. If I'm not mistaken this is what David usually does as well. His problem is in writing the words to go with it, which is why he hires other writers. I like Marie Digby's video because she was actually coming up with the song on the spot so we can see how it actually is done instead of having it explained. Take that Taylor Swift!
Songwriting can be a great way to pass the time. It is also cathartic and purgatory for some people, well in other words it's good for you in the way that chicken soup is. Or chocolate. 🙂 Like what Marie said. So why not give it a go?

Your delivery day
No two women experience labor and delivery in quite the same way, but the more you know about what to expect, the more you can focus on what really matters — the joy of meeting your new baby for the very first time. We want to help you prepare for your delivery day, eliminate any surprises, and help you have a safe and positive experience.
Your hospital can provide you with more information on what to expect and how to prepare for your big day.
Your childbirth preferences plan
Your health and the safety of your baby are always our top priorities. Creating a birth plan is a great way to let your care team know your wishes. It's not a contract, and you can change your plan at any time.
Learn more about creating a birth plan >
Room amenities
The labor, delivery, and recovery rooms offer amenities that include:
- a TV
- free Wi-Fi
- a place for your partner or support person to sleep
- seating and tables
Ask the hospital about the number of guests allowed for labor and delivery. Visiting hours at Saint Joseph's are 24/7.
Ask the hospital about photography guidelines to keep in mind for the memorable occasion.
When you have your baby, you may be surprised at how many people are there to support you — before, during, and after your delivery. Your labor, delivery, and postpartum care team all works together to help give you the happiest, healthiest birth day possible.
First few hours after delivery
When your baby is born, your delivery team will come in to make sure he or she is thriving outside the womb. As long as you and your baby are doing well, you'll have the option to stay together for the rest of your time in the hospital.
Little ones who need special care are observed in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). A neonatologist — a pediatrician trained especially in newborn care — will let you know if your baby needs care in a NICU. If this happens, the neonatologist will talk to you about why your baby needs extra care, and make sure you know where your baby will be and what to expect.

The Missing Carbon Sink
Scientists study the carbon cycle in order to help predict future levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is considered to be a primary cause of global warming, and predictions of future amounts may help scientists determine how much temperatures might rise and how the increase might affect other aspects of the Earth's climate. Approximately 7 billion tons of carbon is emitted annually from the burning of fossil fuels and other industrial activities. Of that, 3 billion tons remain in the atmosphere and 2 billion tons are absorbed by the oceans. Although scientists assumed that the remaining carbon was absorbed by the land (biomass), exactly how much and where remained a mystery until recently.
NASA conducted research using high-resolution maps of carbon storage to indicate that forests in the United States, Europe, and Russia stored nearly 700 million metric tons of carbon each year during the 1980s and 1990s. Possible reasons for why some forests store carbon include: an increased growing season due to climate warming in the north, fire suppression and forest re-growth in the United States, better forest management in Nordic countries, and an overall decline of harvesting in Russia.
Carbon found in the Northern Hemisphere sink accounts for 15 to 30 percent of annual global industrial carbon emissions. The country with the most forested land in the Northern Hemisphere—Russia—accounts for nearly 40 percent of the total biomass carbon sink. While most northern forests are found to be storing carbon, Canadian forests have been found to actually be losing carbon. Scientists believe that it is due to an increased incidence of both fires and infestations throughout the country.
Although most scientists believe they have found the 'missing carbon sink,' the discovery has also raised concerns. As warming continues to raise mean temperatures across the globe, there is a possibility that these forest sinks could turn into sources, releasing more carbon than they absorb and causing the overall biomass carbon sink to shrink in size. While resurgent forests soak up large amounts of carbon, as forests mature and die, the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed decreases. Additional research is currently being done to help determine how long the carbon sink might last and what can be done to prevent it from shrinking.
Scientists have also been working to create a replacement for a shrinking carbon sink. One possible solution being tested in China is the planting of new forests. The Chinese Government has planted tens of millions of acres since the 1970s, a plan that set out to control flooding and erosion but has had the additional benefit of soaking up nearly half a billion tons of carbon. A second possibility is to attempt to keep forests young since the younger the forests are, the more carbon they absorb. Regular forest thinning, where a certain amount of older wood is removed, has been suggested as a way of creating the space for new growth.
An ideal solution is to put the carbon back where it came from?into coal seams, old oil and gas fields, or deep, porous rock formations. This process, called geologic sequestration, is already being used in the North Sea. One particular field yields gas that is heavily contaminated with naturally occurring carbon dioxide which is filtered out and injected into a sandstone formation half a mile below the seafloor. In the United States, the U.S. Department of Energy is planning its own test project in West Virginia, drilling a 10,000 foot well in order to pump carbon dioxide into the deep rock. Although it is uncertain as to how these projects will fare in the long run, the North Sea project continues eight years later and has been effective in sealing 6 million tons of carbon dioxide to date.

The Case of the Missing Carbon
National Geographic explores the idea of northern forests acting as a sink for carbon. They also discuss consequences of global warming and possible replacements for carbon sinks. The use of oceans as carbon sinks is also addressed.
A Sink for Missing Carbon Discovered in Northern Forests
This December 2001 press release discusses satellite data compiled by NASA that indicated that Europe, Russia, and the United States annually store large amounts of carbon. It also discusses why some areas are sinks while others are sources.
Sources and Sinks
The article defines sources and sinks, going into detail on potential sources. The specific types of sources and sinks discussed are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and halocarbons.
Carbon Cycle
The Environmental Literacy Council webpage details the carbon cycle, explaining the difference between geological and biological cycles. The essay also discusses photosynthesis, cycling and storage, and how humans can alter the carbon cycle.

This report details 19 years of research conducted by NASA from remote-sensing spacecraft and forest inventories to analyze the carbon pool in the woody biomass of temperate and boreal forests in the Northern Hemisphere. The data and methods used are also discussed.
Forest and Biological Carbon Sinks After Kyoto
Roger Sedjo, Senior Fellow and Director of the Resources for the Future Forest Economics and Policy Program, analyzes the Kyoto Protocol as it relates to carbon sinks and sources. He asserts that while the Kyoto Protocol provides a vehicle for considering the effects of carbon sinks and sources, it is not comprehensive in its treatment of sinks. The paper also discusses how Kyoto is limited in its focus since it does not address carbon changes during certain periods of time and from some sources.
For the Classroom
Human Activity and Climate Change
This exercise focuses on the relationship between human activity and climate change as students review graphs of greenhouse gas emissions and the increases associated with human activity. They are also given the opportunity to evaluate their own impact on global warming by calculating their personal contributions to carbon dioxide emissions.
Where in the World is Carbon Dioxide?
This 3-part activity gives students the opportunity to explore the concepts of carbon dioxide sources and sinks, learn how to use an indicator solution to detect carbon dioxide, and the qualitative differences between animal and fossil fuel sources of global carbon dioxide emissions.

WASHINGTON—More Catholics would become priests and religious sisters and brothers if there were greater encouragement for them to pursue a religious vocation. Problems such as cost of Catholic schools and impediments to education, particularly among Hispanic Catholics, also stand as factors in determining who chooses to pursue a religious vocation.
Those are some of the key findings in "Consideration of Priesthood and Religious Life Among Never-Married U.S. Catholics," a survey conducted by the Georgetown University-based Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA). The U.S. bishops' Secretariat for Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations commissioned the study released in October with financial support from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation. The study is available online at http://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/vocations/survey-of-youth-and-young-adults-on-vocations.cfm
The survey found that among never-married Catholics, three percent of men and two percent of women have seriously considered a religious vocation.
"This is equivalent to 350,000 never-married men and 250,000 never married women," the survey said. "Shepherding more of these individuals on the path to seeking a vocation would likely require a combination of greater outreach from the Church, encouragement from others, assistance in obtaining educational prerequisites, and dealing with other issues such as student loan debt and citizenship status."
The survey found "generational differences" with the least interest in vocations occurring among the post-Vatican II Catholics, born 1961 -1981. The survey found an increase in numbers among the millennial generation, those born after 1981, "particularly among men of this generation."
CARA found that other ethnicities, primarily Asian women, "are more than twice as likely to consider a vocation" when compared to those women who described themselves as white or Hispanic.
The impact of Catholic education is strong.
"Among male respondents, after controlling for other factors, those who attended a Catholic secondary school (grades 9-12) are more likely to have considered becoming a priest or religious brother." Those males who attended Catholic secondary schools, the survey found, "are more than six times as likely to have considered a vocation."
"Participation in a parish youth group during primary school years (grades K-8) is also strongly related to vocational consideration for men. These respondents are more than five times as likely to consider becoming a priest or religious brother than those who did not participate in a parish youth group."
Encouragement from others is also important for men, the survey found. "Respondents who had three persons encourage them would be expected to be more than five times more likely to consider a vocation than someone who was not encouraged by anyone."
Influences on women were similar. However, the study found "it is attendance at a Catholic primary school which is important for female vocational consideration."Parish youth group participation also is important for women, but "unlike males, it is participation during high school years rather than primary school years that has an effect."
"Women who participated in a parish youth group during these teen years are more than nine times as likely to consider becoming a religious sister," CARA found.
The survey also noted that "although most Catholics who are becoming priests, religious brothers or religious sisters now are typically in their 30s or even older, it is likely that the roots of these vocations were established in their teen years or even earlier."
Archbishop Robert J. Carlson, chairman of the bishops' Committee on Clergy, Consecrated Life, and Vocations, said the findings offer hope."The good news is that more than 500,000 never-married men and women have seriously considered a vocation to priesthood or the religious life.The challenge is to pastor and guide these individuals more effectively.This will require greater and more consistent encouragement from others, particularly within the family, and a more urgent focus on access to Catholic education for our young people."
The study listed several challenges in vocation work, particularly among Hispanics, a growing population of the church in the United States. About 48 percent of all Catholics in the United States born after 1981 are Hispanic. Educational requirements for religious formation programs, such as college experience and the skills to pursue advanced education, puts Hispanics at a disadvantage.
"Hispanic respondents are the least likely to report attending college or obtaining a college degree," the survey found. "Hispanic respondents are also the least likely to indicate enrollment in a Catholic school at any level of their education and the results of the study suggests that this makes it less likely that they will consider a vocation."
Despite the intensive efforts of many bishops and religious communities to make the recruitment process more inviting to and supportive of Hispanic candidates, the shortfall of Hispanic clergy and religious remains urgent. About 35 percent of all Catholics in the United States are Hispanic and yet only 15 percent of the 2012 ordination class and 9 percent of the 2011 religious profession class were Hispanic. This is a gap that continues to need urgent attention.

One of the symbols of the Tour de France went on public display in Leeds as the city prepares to host the start of the world's largest annual sporting event this summer.
The official Grand Départ trophy is held each year by the area or city hosting the start of the legendary cycle race, and has now gone on display
in Leeds Civic Hall as the city and Yorkshire gears up for the race start on Saturday 5 July.
The trophy created by the Tour de France organisers Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO) was presented for the first time to the island of Corsica which hosted the Grand Départ of the centenary Tour last year.
At the conclusion of the race, won by Britain's Chris Froome, the trophy was officially passed over on the finish line on the Champs-Élysées by President of the Executive Council of Corsica Paul Giacobbi to Chief Executive of Welcome to Yorkshire Gary Verity who led the bid to bring the Tour de France to Yorkshire.
With less than six months to go now before the start of the 2014 race, the ornate trophy featuring the Tour de France logo and inscribed with the names and years for Corsica and Yorkshire is now on display outside the council chamber in Civic Hall to further raise the anticipation level around this year's event.
As well as being on display in Leeds, the trophy will also be seen in locations along the routes of the two Tour stages in Yorkshire in the coming months before returning in time for the start of the Grand Départ in July.
The start of the 2014 Tour de France will take place on The Headrow in the shadow of Leeds Town Hall on the morning of Saturday 5 July. The world's leading riders will then follow a route out of the city centre through Moortown and Alwoodley before heading through the historic Harewood Estate and on to Otley, Ilkey and Skipton before a loop through the Yorkshire Dales on the way to the finish of stage one in Harrogate.
Stage two takes the riders on a challenging hilly route from York to Sheffield, while the final day of the Tour in the UK starts in Cambridge and finishes in London.
As well as the start of the race itself, Leeds will also host the annual Team Presentation event at the new Leeds City Council-owned First Direct Arena on Thursday 3 July, while the countdown to the Grand Départ will feature a 100-day cultural festival celebrating the best of culture and the arts in the region.
Leader of Leeds City Council Councillor Keith Wakefield said:
"The interest and media coverage in the last few weeks to mark the new year and six months to go is an indication of how excited everyone is getting around Leeds and Yorkshire hosting the start of the Tour de France.
"We are honoured to host the Grand Départ trophy and hope lots of people come and see it and are inspired to get involved and support what is sure to be amazing event when the Tour comes to Leeds in July."
Chief Executive of Welcome to Yorkshire Gary Verity said:
"This is a great chance for everyone to see the trophy up close and personal. It's wonderful to see Yorkshire inscribed on this impressive trophy and our county associated with the Tour.

Mexican Chicken Lasagna With Chorizo Beans Recipe
What do you need?
How to make?
For the Sauce:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground chicken or turkey
1 small white or yellow onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
14.5-ounce can fire-roasted tomatoes
2 cups of homemade or store-bought red salsa, preferably fire-roasted
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt
Cracked black pepper
For the Beans:
1/2-pound Mexican chorizo, casing removed
2 serrano or jalapeno peppers, minced
14.5-ounce can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
14.5-ounce can refried beans
For Remaining Fillings and Garnishes:
1 package 8" flour tortillas
14.5-ounce can corn, drained
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
4 ounces shredded pepper jack cheese
1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
1/4 cup red onion, minced
Sour cream
2 limes, cut into wedges
Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large sauté pan. When oil is shimmering, cook chicken, breaking into bits until no longer pink and lightly browned, about 7 minutes total. Reduce heat to medium and add onion and garlic. Sauté for 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, salsa, cumin, onion and cocoa powders and Worcestershire sauce and brig to a boil, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, brown chorizo over medium-high heat in a medium-sized sauté pan, breaking into bits until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain grease from pan and discard. Add serrano peppers and sauté for 3 more minutes, until beginning to soften. Add pinto and refried beans. Stir to combine and gently mash bean mixture, leaving some texture. Season with salt and pepper. Spray cooking spray on the bottom and sides of a 13" x 9" baking dish. Spread a few spoonfuls of the tomato sauce on the bottom of the pan, to coat. Top with a layer of flour tortillas, overlapping and cutting as needed to form a fully covered bottom layer. Spread 1/2 of bean mixture on top, followed by several spoonfuls of the tomato sauce. Top evenly with half of corn, followed by 1/3 of each of the cheeses. Repeat layer, starting with tortillas. After layer this is complete, top with another layer of tortillas. Spread this final tortilla layer with additional tomato sauce and the remaining 1/3 cheese. Scatter sliced jalapenos and red onion on top. Place in oven and bake until browned and bubbly, 30-35 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before cutting and serving with sour cream and limes.

Although approximately on the old canal line, the underpass in the top photo has nothing to do with the canal, being built for livestock to cross under the motorway. The restored canal will very likely follow a revised route that will share the River Frome bridge under the M5 (see second photo). The canal will be in a separate channel. All views towards Saul.
Map reference for position of proposed new route is SO 7758 0647.

A few weeks ago, I attended the Intel Developer Forum 2011 (also known as IDF 2011) in San Francisco, California. Paul Otellini, president and chief executive officer of Intel Corporation, talked about the evolution of computing in his opening keynote. I noted five important things he mentioned while describing his vision for the future, which are closely related to the User eXperience (also known as UX):
- The user is in the center.
- Computing is about experiences.
- The experience is even more important than the device.
- User eXperience: anytime, anyway.
- All tied to an increasingly capable cloud.
JavaScript and HTML 5 are very important when Web developers have to create exciting and portable User eXperiences. However, serialized JavaScript code doesn't take advantage of more than one physical core.
JavaScript and HTML 5 are tied to an increasingly capable cloud. However, serialized JavaScript code can easily become a bottleneck even when tied to the most scalable cloud.
A few years ago, I wrote "Rich Services Cloud Applications Require Parallel Programming Skills" for Dr. Dobb's. I explained the simple and powerful idea of combining client-side parallelism with cloud-side parallelism. This combination allows developers to take advantage of modern multicore hardware on both sides and offer users the most exciting immersive interactions. Paul's keynote is pushing that idea even further because he considers that the experience is even more important than the device. No matter the number of physical cores you have in any device, you need software prepared to take full advantage of those parallel lanes to provide an engaging experience.
If you have data-parallel problems and you're working with JavaScript, you'll be able to achieve significant speedups by using River Trail over sequential JavaScript. River Trail will allow you to take full advantage of all the available cores to process data. Right now, River Trail is available as a Firefox extension that translates the data-parallel constructs at runtime into a low-level hardware abstraction layer. When you use Firefox on Windows, River Trail uses the Intel OpenCL SDK. However, it is an open source project, and even the source code for the popular and impressive particle simulation shown at IDF 2011 is available for download.
Of course, I didn't want to miss the technical session about River Trail and I had a chance to talk with the members of this exciting project. They explained to me that they started with Firefox but they wanted River Trail to be available in any browser with no limitations. They had to start somewhere and that's why Firefox is the first, but not the last, one.
I've already started working with River Trail and I found the Map/Reduce idioms to be really easy to use. River Trail is still work in progress, but it achieves excellent speedups with modern multicore hardware and even more when you run the code in multicore CPUs with AVX instructions. A few months ago, I had already explained the advantages of running as many SIMD instructions in parallel as available physical cores in "High-Level Programming Languages Should Improve Support for SIMD Instructions." River Trail does a really good job at achieving this. We just have to wait for it to be available in more browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Safari, and Chrome.

Sometimes it's backup to something larger (.38/.357 snubbie or a full sized Glock 9mm) but often it's the only piece I can pack without looking like I'm trying to show off. I'm usually in Phoenix these days, so we have a similar summertime problem with temperatures and wardrobe, and one can't always wear a baggy untucked shirt for cover. I know somebody will have to jump on and make some crack about the ineffective cartridge but I can carry this with 9 rounds plus a spare magazine, a knife, and multiple black belts. In higher risk environments I would prefer the other options for primary but this will do the job.

Over the course of her career, athletic therapist Janette Yee has worked with countless clients. Some have been elite athletes. (Yee specializes in the sport of rugby.) Some have been new to exercise. (Yee likes working with a range of abilities.) But regardless of their background or fitness level, the women Yee has seen have tended to share a common complaint: experiencing pain or weakness after pregnancy.
At first, Yee approached her pregnant and post-delivery clients' rehabilitation the way she would any others': with individually appropriate manual therapy; safe exercise and movement suggestions; and loads of information. But now Yee — who is an inspiring ball of energy in person — has synthesized her years of experience into a formal Postpartum Rehabilitation Program (PRP), which she runs through the Toronto Athletic Club's Sports Medicine Clinic.
Yee's PRP still uses the same three basic components outlined above — manual therapy, realistic exercise programming and education. It's just that in this case they're specifically geared to sore, sleep-deprived mothers. So, for example, Yee will do fascial work on a C-section scar to ensure that a woman's abdominal tissues heal properly. And she will help clients find ways to integrate suggested exercises into their normal baby-focused days.
(Incidentally, babies are invited to join their moms at the PRP sessions and often do.) With a nod to the havoc sleep deprivation plays on new mothers' memories, the program also offers private online access to the personalized exercise plan.
Yee is passionate about how important it is for new moms to take care of themselves and wants to get the message out that they don't have to — and shouldn't — live with long-term pain.
She gets me thinking about the neck stiffness that's been plaguing me since giving birth to my twins last year. I have been writing it off as the unavoidable cost of having, and lugging around, three young kids (there's a five-year-old in the mix, too), but maybe Yee is right. As mothers, we do tend to assume we should just "suck it up" instead of persevering with the effort to try to find someone to help us heal — and get our bodies back in balance.
"If you go in for knee surgery, your orthopedic surgeon is going to make sure you have post-operative rehabilitation," Yee says. "It should be the same for pregnancy — especially after a C-section."
But it's not. Absent any major complications, obstetricians usually only see new moms once — six weeks after childbirth.
Those visits tend to be perfunctory (in my experience, they seemed mainly designed to update the doctor's files on my kids' birth weights), with little emphasis on how the mother might begin to restore her physical well-being. Yee puts it more diplomatically. "OBGyns, who have concern for the postpartum mom's physical state of health, may be limited by time and specialized knowledge to address musculoskeletal injuries," she says.
Either way, it's a void Yee's program is perfectly placed to fill. Of course, the OB appointment is free, whereas an initial 45-minute PRP assessment is $125 and 30-minute followup sessions are $85. But Yee has found that most mothers only need a few sessions to learn and heal.
"The body is smart," she says. "It knows what to do."

I have a program that has to WPF Windows.
In the first MainWindow I have a menu to open a an image file.
The menu opens an OpenDialog box to let the user choose an image, after the image is chosen an instance of the second WPF Window ImageWindow is created and the title is changed to the file path of the selected file
string filename = dlg.FileName;
Window imgWindow = new CToolsImageWindow();
// Change Image window to filename of image
imgWindow.Title = filename;
On the ImageWindow there is a Image Control named imgPicture, I want to change the imgPicture.Source to the file that was selected in the OpenDialog window, however I cannot access the imgPicture from the scope of MainWindow.
Does this require data binding or a simple access modifier or ? I changed the XAML to FieldModifier="public" for the imgPicture and nothing.
Am I making a gross conceptual error or what. I've spent hours trying to figure this out with no luck.

If you are seeing the images when you run the Php, sounds like you are mostly there.Toxic17 wrote: yeah I am at a lost too, though I have the graphs now being displayed on their own, just not in the popup windows.
the .htaccess file supplied is suppose to change the naming convention so you dont have to rename the line 203 etc. though I still cannot get the images shown using *.png files
I was stuck at that point until I came to understand that the .htaccess file belonged in with the images & the scripts.
Mine are in weather/images on a standard CumulusMX install.
That may not be an issue if the php's are already displaying the images as in..the other issue I have is I am on PHP 7.1.1 and I needed jpgrahs 4.x and higher. the scripts Mark has kindly provided was calling for a php file that was not part of jpgraphs 4.0.x
I just deleted that line as mentioned on Github, https://github.com/mcrossley/Cumulus-MX-Gauge-Graphsthe missing file was: jpgraph_glayout_vh.inc.php which I had to check the Apache logs too see what the hell was going on..
Code: Select all
Mark Wittl has kindly contributed a WindRose script, if you want to use this graphic, then there are some additional steps you need to take...
1.Modify the jpgraph_windrose.php file to remove the import of 'jpgraph_glayout_vh.inc.php' //require_once('jpgraph_glayout_vh.inc.php');
2.Edit the jp-config.inc.php file to point to the font directory under the installed jpgraph location define('TTF_DIR','<YOUR_PATH>/jpgraph/fonts/'); You will need the following font files arial.ttf and verdana.ttf
Got stuck there as well, as no new png's are created, they are made on the fly, by the .htaccess.I have managed to put that with the rest of the jpgraph files and now it at least displays the graph calling the php file on its own. I think the next is is the popups are not creating the image files due to the naming so I will try your workaround and see if i get any joy.
Think that's roughly like Subst in the DOS days, (very poor comparison).
So even now when it's working, there are no new PNG's created in my ../images/ directory, only the PHP scripts & the .htaccess file.
Hope that helps

St Maarten And St Martin Climate & Weather
The island is sunny and warm all year round, with average monthly temperatures varying little throughout the year. Temperatures in coastal areas range from 72ºF (22ºC) to 86ºF (30ºC) and inland areas range between 66ºF (19ºC) and 81ºF (27ºC). Cooling winds buffet the island throughout the year. Showers can be expected at any time of year but rainstorms generally pass quickly. Hurricane season in the Caribbean lasts from June to November, with the most storms occurring in September. December to May is considered the dry season (though rain can occur at any time of year), and is considered the best time to visit St Maarten and St Martin. Winter and the Christmas/New Year holidays are traditionally the most popular time to visit the island, but summer can also be a good time to visit because lodging rates are much lower and the beaches, roads and restaurants are not crowded.

I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable I felt while snowshoe running this morning. When I left the house I took a peek at the thermometer and saw that it was -16F. I didn't see any leaves blowing around on the trees so I didn't think there was much of a wind chill. There wasn't! Joy!
By the time I reached the trail head; only 15 miles or so north of my house the temperature had dropped to -21F per my car. I was glad that I had remembered to grab the booties for Topaz.
The trail was beautiful when the sun rose. Sparkly white frosty snow, heavily laid upon the trees and branches. Stunning. I felt like I was running through a jeweled Christmas card.
We ran for a few hours, staying warm and comfortable. I couldn't help but think that next Saturday I will be in Duluth running the snowshoe marathon. It will probably be -40F or something...
I am finding that I am able to stay warmer during my runs and even in general, when I am not running. I think it is because I have: 1) increased my lifting from 3 days to 5 days a week, 2) am making SURE that I eat every three hours and 3) am at a lower weight so am moving more quickly. By making these changes my metabolism seems to have increased. In my log book I record the temperature, what I am wearing and how I feel, especially with Northwoods coming up, I want to have the clothing perfect. I am finding that I need less clothing than I usually do at the same temperatures. Interesting.
Back to the run. As Topaz and I were finishing up, a man approached me in the lot. I saw him there last night while running and Thursday night as well. He had been snowplowing a portion of the trail for the walkers today during the Sherburne WinterFest or whatever it is. He came over and commented on the fact that I am out there quite often snowshoe running. He asked if I'd be interested in guiding some snowshoers on the trail. I explained to him that I enjoyed the solitude of the trail, the fact that were hardly any others using the trail and that I didn't want to promote use of the trail. I apologized for being selfish. I told him that I do lead a group at the Lake Maria State Park and that I would be willing to lead another for him in Sherburne County; but not on this trail. He thanked me for being honest and gave me his card.
I thought back to when I was in my early teens. Mom, Dad and I would cross country ski almost every weekend. My Dad cut down trees with a hatchet and machete as we would go bush whacking through the Laurentian Divide between Virginia and Britt. He created miles of trails for us to use each weekend, each winter. Dad would fly down the hills and more often than not, he'd break a ski tip by crashing into a tree stump. He began to carry plastic tips with him.
As the years went on we began to notice more and more people using the trails that Dad created. It made us rethink skiing those trails. We began to drive further up north on occasion, in order to get away from the others. One day as we were skiing "our" trails a group of skiers told us we were going the wrong way on the trail. That was the last straw. The wrong way?! Hello!!
I called Mom and Dad today on the way home from my run today and let them know about the man from the county. I reminded them of the skiing incident. I'm so much like my Dad. He hasn't skied that area in over 25 years now. He rather ski near our property on Lake Vermilion. Now, of course, they aren't doing any skiing as they are spending winters in Texas!
This afternoon my Lake Maria group and I snowshoed 4 miles. I had to break new trail. The snowshoe trail was being used for a demonstration so we hoofed it out into the thick woods. It was a blast. I don't mind sharing the trail and the my passion for the outdoors at this park.
It's Not In My Backyard.

ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus is an integrated self-service password management and single sign on solution. This solution helps domain users perform self-service password reset, self-service account unlock, employee self-update of personal details (e.g., mobile numbers and photos) in Microsoft Windows Active Directory. ADSelfService Plus also provides users with secure, one-click access to all SAML-supported enterprise applications, including Office 365, Salesforce, and G Suite, through Active Directory-based single sign-on (SSO). For improved security, ADSelfService Plus offers Windows two-factor authentication for all remote and local logins. Administrators find it easy to automate password resets, account unlocks while optimizing IT expenses associated with help desk calls.
Analysts state that 30% of help desk queries are related to password reset management and account lockout. ADSelfService Plus reduces the most critical password tickets that consume a substantial amount of help desk time by rendering a secure, reliable and robust web based self-service solution. End users can manage their passwords and update their personal details in Active Directory with ease. The solution secures remote and local logins to Windows with two-factor authentication.
ADSelfService Plus holds the following list of features:

ADSelfService Plus has reduced our support tickets and calls by 100 per week, saving a ton of staff hours. The solution was very easy to deploy. We were up and running within 2 weeks. We love your product and are evaluating your other solutions as well.
Other options were requiring a modification of the Active Directory schema, I liked that ADSelfService Plus did not. The ability to 'brand' the tool to our school was also important.
CAMH will be able to save close to $26,000 a year on service desk calls related to Active Directory password resets and locked accounts, and will see a return on investment within the first six months of product implementation.
Almost 30 percent of the help desk calls were related to account unlock requests. We badly needed a system that would keep us out of this process. ADSelfService Plus has fulfilled all our needs. We found it to be very effective in terms of both cost and performance. Surprisingly, we have found the soon to expire notification function to be of great help for our remote users.

Here are some commonly asked questions. If your question is not answered here, please do not hesitate to contact your program or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Why are there two platforms?
Medsquares is the original platform used for EPA completion that is now being replaced by Elentra. The University of Toronto is moving towards using Elentra for all EPA assessments as of July 2019.
Programs who are field testing (Internal Medicine, General Internal Medicine and Geriatric Medicine) are using Medsquares.
Programs who have officially launched (Emergency Medicine, Nephrology and Medical Oncology) are using Elentra for EPA assessments.
Some users like to create links to these sites on the homescreens of their mobile devices so they have easy access.
Do I need a University of Toronto User ID (UTORID) to access these platforms?
Yes, a UTORID is required to sign into either platform. If you don't know your UTORID, please contact your Program Administrator.
Who can initiate an EPA?
Either a resident or a faculty can initiate an EPA assessment.
Note: Faculty initiating assessments require a user account. Please contact your Program Administrator or firstname.lastname@example.com if you do not have an account.
How often do EPAs need to be completed?
It depends. Each program sets EPA requirements for their residents to meet their needs to make progression/promotion decisions. If you have any questions, please contact your Program Director, CBME Lead or the Program Administrator for your program.
When should the EPAs be completed?
It's best to do complete an EPA assessment shortly after the encounter. While we understand that may not always be possible, EPAs must be completed within 48 hours after the encounter.
Can I start an EPA and complete it at a later time?
It depends. On Elentra, assessments can be saved and completed at a later time.
It is not possible to save evaluation on Medsquares.
I'm finding it challenging to provide constructive feedback – is there any guidance on this?
Yes, we have a brief document that provides some useful tips and a previous newsletter had a section devoted.

The cyclist's historic run of Tour de France championships made headlines, as did his fall from grace after being stripped of the titles in 2012.
Lance Armstrong's admission to Oprah Winfrey that he used performance-enhancing drugs to roll to cycling stardom puts him in some pretty bad company. After years of denying the accusations, Armstrong came clean in the Oprah interview, NBC News has confirmed. He now joins such disgraced names as Richard Nixon and John Edwards, who were exposed as liars to the American public.
Is there any way he can ever restore his once pristine reputation? Probably not. Winning back the public trust at this point would rival the Tour de France in its difficulty.
But, if Armstrong does want to try, here are six suggestions from experts on how he can try to accomplish the impossible.
1. Recede from view
After this latest round of controversy, the best thing for Armstrong to do might be to disappear for a while. Allow the public to forget about the worst accusations, said longtime crisis publicist Howard Bragman, vice chairman of Reputation.com.
"What you don't want to do is go on an apology tour," Bragman said. "You do one interview and you do it well, and that's all you need to do in this day and age."
Nailing that one interview is crucial, however, and in Armstrong's case it's not yet clear how it went. While Winfrey offered a teaser of her two-and-a-half hour interview Tuesday on CBS, she declined to comment on whether or not Armstrong was contrite and what exactly he revealed.
"You have to listen to your lawyers and your PR people," Bragman said. "The question is can you listen to your lawyers and your publicists and still sound sincere enough in it."
2. Send in the suits
NBC News, along with other outlets, has reported that Armstrong confessed to taking performance enhancing drugs in his interview with Winfrey. An admission of guilt opens up the potential for a flurry of new lawsuits against the cyclist – practically guaranteeing that he stays in the news. The key is to avoid magnifying those headlines with personal appearances. Let your army of suits do the work for you.
"You just deal," Bragman said of headline-grabbing court action. "You show up when you have to and your lawyers when you don't. And be prepared to spend a lot of money and a lot of energy to restore some measure of dignity to your life."
New York Daily News columnist Mike Lupica talks about Armstrong's revelation that he did take performance-enhancing drugs after years of denials, calling it a "giant athletic Ponzi scheme," and attorney Lisa Bloom discusses the legal implications.
3. Get back into charity work
Unlike other sporting legends whose public personas hit the skids, Armstrong might be able to boost himself on the merits of the prominent cancer charity he founded, but from which he has had to distance himself.
For years, Armstrong's public persona was inseparable from the Livestrong Foundation. In October, he stepped down as chairman of the charity known for its yellow wrist bands. Yet, Armstrong remains closely tied to the group's activities in the minds of many, and the sports star may be able to make the most of that.
ESPN anchor Stuart Scott, who is undergoing chemotherapy treatments, tweeted his continuing support for Armstrong on Monday:
"I'm 1 of millions of [cancer] survivors he's helped. #grateful"
4. Find a crisis role model
In many ways, Armstrong's case is unique. Unlike stars whose sexual indiscretion or predilection for dog fighting brings them down, the use of performance-enhancing drugs undermines the main reason he was in the spotlight – his athletic prowess.
"You have situations like the Tiger Woods, the Kobe Bryants, the Michael Vicks, but those to me don't match up on this scale," said George Belch, professor of sports marketing at San Diego State University. "This one, it's like an octopus with its tentacles everywhere."
Strangely, Armstrong's path back to some measure of respectability could follow former President Richard Nixon's after the Watergate scandal: Put your head down, go where you are needed, and grind away in your work until public opinion begins to shift.
5. Play those highlight reels
Armstrong was the face of cycling for many Americans, and to the average man or woman on a bicycle, that may be all that matters, especially when many people suspect his competitors were doping too.
Despite denials made in interviews and a deposition, legendary cyclist Lance Armstrong has come clean about using performance-enhancing drugs. NBC's Anne Thompson reports on his admission to Oprah Winfrey.
"We're not a cycling country, we're not cycling fans," Belch said. "That gives him a little bit of leeway with the general public."
Florida veterinarian Michael Herman, 55, said it was watching Armstrong pedal that got him on the bike in 2003. He rode in five Livestrong events in Austin, Texas, with Armstrong and other supporters of the charity. Despite all the controversy, Herman said he still watches videos of Armstrong's past performances with dropped jaw.
"Lance has done very good things," said Herman, whose said his feelings wouldn't be changed by an admission of doping. "As far as I'm concerned he got me healthy. He got me interested in biking, and it's now a passion."
6. Give it time
While Armstrong may be impatient to move beyond his apparent admission of guilt, finding his way back into the public's warm embrace will take time, said Peter Flax, editor-in-chief of Bicycling magazine.
"I think it really is going to be dependent on his commitment to the process," Flax said.
This is just the beginning.
"Seeing how earnestly he continues to follow through with this will help decide whether he earns redemption in the public's eye or not," Flax said. "It's not going to be a one-and-done thing where he cries on the couch with Oprah and everyone forgives him."
Tune in to TODAY Friday for an exclusive live interview with Livestrong CEO Doug Ulman.
