Judith Rich Harris was born in Brooklyn, New York on February 10, 1938. She received a bachelor's degree in psychology from Brandeis University in 1959 and a master's in psychology from Harvard University in 1961. She was dismissed from the doctoral program at Harvard. She worked briefly as a teaching assistant at M.I.T. and as a research assistant at the University of Pennsylvania. She later worked as a research assistant for Bell Labs. Harris suffered from a chronic autoimmune disorder. Eventually the severity of her illness kept her housebound and she became a textbook writer. While writing college textbooks on child development, she realized she didn't believe what she was telling readers about why children turn out the way they do. She believed that children are influenced more by their genes and peers than by their parents. She wrote her theory up for an academic journal and won a prize from the American Psychological Association. She wrote books on the subject including The Nurture Assumption: Why Children Turn Out the Way They Do and No Two Alike: Human Nature and Human Individuality. She died on December 29, 2018 at the age of 80. (Bowker Author Biography) — beskrivning från Myten om föräldrars makt : varför barn blir som de blir… (mer)

Basketball victories lead to new coaching record
By EZRA LACINA
The Vashon Pirate hoopsters went 2-0 last week with commanding victories over Bellevue Christian and Chimacum.
On Tuesday, the Bellevue Christian Vikings made the trip to Vashon to take on the highly ranked Pirates. The game started well for Vashon, who scored quickly and played solid defense. Senior captain Owen Brenno turned in an impressive first quarter scoring 6. At the end of the first quarter, Vashon was up 17-10.
Halfway through the second quarter, junior captain Jessie Norton came alive, getting more aggressive on offense and defense, highlighted by Norton ripping the ball from a Viking’s hands and going coast-to-coast for the lay-in. At the half, Vashon still had the lead, 31-21.
In the third quarter, the Pirate offense came out firing on all cylinders. Norton continued to drive the lane with success, and overall Vashon’s offense was clicking. There was no shortage of highlights for the Pirates. Sophomore Sam Yates made a great play, grabbing the rebound off a missed free throw then sinking a corner 3. Junior Ian Stewart had the highlight of the period, nailing a shot while getting knocked down to beat the shot clock then making the free throw. Overall Vashon outscored Bellevue Christian 24-11 in the quarter.
Vashon put the brakes on their scoring attack in the fourth quarter as head coach Andy Sears gave his backups some playing time. However, the Pirate defense did not let up, allowing only 8 points in the fourth and sealing the victory. The 66-40 domination gave Sears his 210th win, setting a new school record for overall victories by a head basketball coach. Sears has achieved this milestone in only 13 seasons while the previous record took 26 seasons to accumulate.
Norton led the Vashon scoring with 16, followed by sophomore Noah Chee with 12 and Brenno with 11.
On Friday, the Pirates made the long drive to Chimacum to take on the struggling Cowboys. The first quarter went just as expected, pure domination. Yates scored first for the Pirates with an inside bucket then added two 3-pointers to jump start Vashon’s offense. While doing very well on offense, Vashon’s defense was dismantling the Cowboys, allowing only 4 points in the first quarter. At the end of the first quarter, Vashon was up 17-4.
Chimacum’s offensive play improved greatly in the second quarter, but it was not enough to impose a threat on Vashon. Norton was taking over on offense in the second quarter, at one point making a shot over three defenders. At the half Vashon, was up big, 38-17.
Things didn’t change much in the second half. Chimacum had been put in too big of a hole to recover. Norton continued to wreck the Cowboy defense, showing why he is one of the best offensive players in the league. In the fourth quarter, Chee made a spin move layup, leaving his defender lost in the paint. The final highlight of the night was turned in by sophomore Sean Delargie, when he knocked down a 3 pointer.
In the end Vashon was victorious, winning by a score of 68-42. Norton again led the Pirates in scoring with an impressive 24 points, followed by Yates with 14.
At press time, the Pirates had two regular season games left to play, one against Eatonville and one against rival Charles Wright. If they can win these two games, they will have a share in the league championship.

Work Visa Types and Length of Stay
Obtaining a work visa is a significant accomplishment that can take an extended time to approve, depending on extenuating circumstances. Because of this, it’s important for these visa holders to understand the length of stay and what factors may contribute to it.
There are different types of work visas, each with its own conditions and requirements that may change the maximum length of stay. Here are the three main categories and what you should know:
The most common type of work visa is the H-Visa, which permits immigrants to be in the United States for approximately six years to perform a certain job. If the holder of this visa leaves their position, they have 60 days to find a new job and apply for a change of status.
The L-Visa allows for a maximum stay of seven years in the United States. This visa is typically granted to executives and managers who are being transferred to a US affiliate company or to individuals with “extraordinary ability” in their field.
The O-visa is reserved for immigrants with extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics, or who have a demonstrated record of extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry and are coming to the United States to continue work in their field. The initial period of stay for an O-visa holder generally is three years.
Other Factors That Can Contribute to Length of Stay
In addition to the type of visa, there are other factors that can contribute to the length of stay in the United States. For example, if an immigrant applies for a green card, they may be able to extend their stay indefinitely. If you’re a current work visa holder and want to extend your stay, a good first step would be to contact an experienced immigration attorney for assistance.

Zinc (Zn) Supplementation for Type 2 Diabetes: Might be a Prevention of Heart Disease
There's no cure for type 2 diabetes, but there's plenty you can do to manage — or prevent — the condition. Start by eating healthy foods, getting plenty of exercise and maintaining a healthy weight. If diet and exercise aren't enough, managing your blood sugar with medication can help you continue to live a healthy and active life.
The pancreas secretes insulin, but the body is partially or completely unable to use the insulin. This is sometimes referred to as insulin resistance. The body tries to overcome this resistance by secreting more and more insulin. People with insulin resistance develop type 2 diabetes when they do not continue to secrete enough insulin to cope with the higher demands.
If left untreated, it may result in blindness, heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure and amputations. Only half of the people who have diabetes have been diagnosed, because in the early stages of diabetes there are few symptoms, or the symptoms may be the same as symptoms of other health conditions.You can make a big difference in reducing or preventing the damage that diabetes can do. The earlier you know you have diabetes, the sooner you can make these important lifestyle changes.
About 17 million Americans (6.2%) are believed to have diabetes. About one third of those do not know they have it.About 1 million new cases occur each year, and diabetes is the direct or indirect cause of at least 200,000 deaths each year.The incidence of diabetes is increasing rapidly. This increase is due to many factors, but the most significant are the increasing incidence of obesity and the prevalence of sedentary lifestyles.
In middle-aged people with type 2 diabetes, an inadequate blood level of zinc -- a micronutrient with antioxidant activity -- appears to increase the risk of heart attack and death from heart disease, a Finnish study hints.
"Theoretically our results are in favor of the possibility that zinc supplementation might be useful in preventing (heart-related) complications in patients with type 2 diabetes," the study team writes.
Dr. Minna Soinio from University of Turku and colleagues assessed death due to coronary heart disease and the incidence of heart attack in relation to serum zinc levels in 1,050 people, aged 45 to 64, who had type 2 diabetes for 8 years, on average.
During 7 years of follow up, 156 of the subjects died from heart disease and 254 had a fatal or non-fatal heart attack, the investigators report in the journal Diabetes Care.
According to the researchers, the average blood zinc level was significantly lower in men and women who died from heart disease than in those who did not. Among individuals with the lowest blood zinc levels, 21 percent died from heart disease compared with 13 percent of those individuals who had higher zinc levels.
Rates of fatal and nonfatal heart attack were also higher in subjects with the lowest zinc levels compared to those with higher concentrations (30 percent versus 22 percent).
Studies looking at whether zinc supplementation would benefit people with type 2 diabetes, a group at high risk for heart disease, are warranted, Soinio and colleagues conclude.
Zinc is an essential element, necessary for sustaining all life. It is estimated that 3000 of the hundreds of thousands of proteins in the human body contain zinc prosthetic groups. In addition, there are over a dozen types of cells in the human body that secrete zinc ions, and the roles of these secreted zinc signals in medicine and health are now being actively studied. Intriguingly, brain cells in the mammalian forebrain are one type of cell that secretes zinc, along with its other neuronal messenger substances. Cells in the salivary gland, prostate, immune system and intestine are other types that secrete zinc.
Zinc is a common element in the natural environment. Apart from artificially reduced zinc metal, it exists in the divalent state Zn (II) in the environment and it is an essential element for most organisms. It is well known that zinc deficiency causes numerous effects in humans, including neurosensory changes, growth retardation and delayed wound healing, but most people obtain sufficient amounts of zinc from their diet.
Healthy lifestyle choices can help you prevent type 2 diabetes. Even if diabetes runs in your family, diet and exercise can help you prevent the disease. And if you've already been diagnosed with diabetes, the same healthy lifestyle choices can help you prevent potentially serious complications.

Ohio has some of the best boating waters in the country. With 110 lakes and 61,000 miles of rivers and streams, you could spend your entire lifetime exploring the various Ohio waterways. Keeping those waterways safe is everyone’s responsibility, whether fishing from land or running a large outboard-powered behemoth on open water. And when rivers, lakes, and other bodies of water get congested during peak season, it only takes one lapse of concentration or judgment to lead to tragedy.
Boating accidents occur for a number of reasons in Ohio, including equipment failure and hazardous waters. However, there are also boating accidents that result from negligent and careless behavior on the water, such as:
- alcohol use,
- excessive speed,
- operator inattention,
- operator inexperience,
- reckless operation,
- and passenger/skier behavior.
These are the most unfortunate, as they can be avoided. If you’ve been injured in a boating accident due to someone else’s carelessness, give our Ohio boating accident attorneys a call immediately for a free consultation. We can fully investigate the events that led up to your accident and help hold those responsible accountable for their actions.

County will keep forest undeveloped
Seattle Times staff reporter
A 443-acre forest west of Carnation will be permanently protected from development through a King County program that will transfer those building rights to more-urban areas within the county.
King County will pay landowner Port Blakely $2.8 million, including $500,000 in federal money, to continue its private logging operations on the property and abandon plans to develop a golf course and 70 homes.
The land, near the Snoqualmie River between Carnation and Ames Lake, is home to deer, bears and elk, said Rudy Edwards, a district manager for the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.
"It's going to be a working forest for perpetuity," said County Executive Ron Sims, who touted the deal as win-win growth management.
County Councilman Larry Phillips, who was instrumental in the deal, called it a milestone in county history.
"We are an urban county, and we are continuing to urbanize all the time, but there is a heritage people want to preserve," he said.
King County began experimenting with development rights in 1998, allowing developers to buy such rights to rural lands in exchange for permission to build higher-density urban projects than the county otherwise would allow.
More than 700 acres of open space have previously been protected through the program, which allows taller buildings in downtown Seattle's Denny Triangle, south of Denny Way, and a 50 percent increase in the number of homes allowed in some unincorporated areas of the county.
In this case, King County is buying development rights to the timberland and placing those rights into its "bank" for purchase by developers. An undetermined portion of the $2.8 million purchase price will be recouped when those rights are sold.
Jim Warjone, president of Port Blakely, said his company has owned the land since 1888, logging it three times in that span. It's typical for timber companies to sell off lands when the real-estate market makes logging a less-attractive use, he said.
"This administration is really amazing," he said. "These are people who understand there are things we can do for each other."

The JAK-Inhibitor Tofacitinib Rescues Human Intestinal Epithelial Cells and Colonoids from Cytokine-Induced Barrier Dysfunction.
Inflamm Bowel Dis. 2019 Nov 21;:
Authors: Sayoc-Becerra A, Krishnan M, Fan S, Jimenez J, Hernandez R, Gibson K, Preciado R, Butt G, McCole DF
BACKGROUND: Alterations to epithelial tight junctions can compromise the ability of the epithelium to act as a barrier between luminal contents and the underlying tissues, thereby increasing intestinal permeability, an early critical event in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Tofacitinib (Xeljanz), an orally administered pan-Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, was recently approved for the treatment of moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. Nevertheless, the effects of tofacitinib on intestinal epithelial cell functions are largely unknown. The aim of this study was to determine if JAK inhibition by tofacitinib can rescue cytokine-induced barrier dysfunction in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs).
METHODS: T84 IECs were used to evaluate the effects of tofacitinib on JAK-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) activation, barrier permeability, and expression and localization of tight junction proteins. The impact of tofacitinib on claudin-2 promoter activity was assessed in HT-29 IECs. Tofacitinib rescue of barrier function was also tested in human colonic stem cell-derived organoids.
RESULTS: Pretreatment with tofacitinib prevented IFN-γ-induced decreases in transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) and increases in 4 kDa FITC-dextran permeability (FD4), partly due to claudin-2 transcriptional regulation and restriction of ZO-1 rearrangement at tight junctions. Although tofacitinib administered after IFN-γ challenge only partially normalized TER and claudin-2 levels, FD4 permeability and ZO-1 localization were fully recovered. The IFN-γ-induced FD4 permeability in primary human colonoids was fully rescued by tofacitinib.
CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest differential therapeutic efficacy of tofacitinib in the rescue of pore vs leak-tight junction barrier defects and indicate a potential contribution of improved epithelial barrier function to the beneficial effects of tofacitinib in IBD patients.

While Dobson is cheered in Utah, there are some hard feelings about him in Colorado. Tim Gill, the wealthy and openly gay co-founder and chairman of Quark Inc., a desktop-publishing firm, has been pumping money into social causes in Colorado Springs. Among the recipients of a $500 bequest is P.M. Wynn, a local talk-radio host who runs a community gospel fair. Wynn quickly came under intense questioning from Dobsonís operatives. They made it clear they were upset that she took money from Gill and withdrew their support. "They did it to punish us," she says.
This week the Southern Baptist Convention holds its annual meeting in Salt Lake City, Utah, the world headquarters of the Mormon church. These two growing denominations are divided in doctrine, but they are increasingly close on the religious right and equally concerned about the American family. Personifying the affinity is the star speaker at the Baptist confab, conservative radio guru James Dobson, who will preach his traditional brand of "pro-family" politics, appropriate for a 15.7 million-strong denomination that intends to put family issues at the top of its legislative agenda. The conservatives, who control the convention, will also propose adding a clause to the Baptist statement of faith, last amended 35 years ago, that will define the proper "biblical" family. The prescription bound to provoke the most attention states that a good Christian wife "is to submit graciously to the servant leadership of her husband." Passage of the amendment seems a good bet.

31.15.1. Where the Minister ascertains that the applicant of a depollution attestation does not comply with a contaminant discharge standard referred to in paragraph 3 of section 31.12, he may require that the applicant submit to him, within 60 days after the date of service of a written notice or on any later date specified in the notice, a corrective programme intended to bring the applicant to comply with the standard within a maximum period of two years.
The Minister may, when issuing the attestation, impose the corrective programme, with or without amendment.
If the applicant fails to submit a corrective programme within the time allowed, the Minister may impose on him, on issuing the attestation, any corrective programme he considers necessary to bring the attestation holder to comply with the standard within a maximum period of two years and, for that purpose, fix the conditions, requirements, time limits and terms of the programme.
This section does not apply where the application for an attestation concerns an industrial establishment having begun its operation after the date of coming into force of the order determining the class of industrial establishments to which the applicant’s establishment belongs or where the application concerns an industrial establishment for which the Minister has already issued a depollution attestation.

As per the title really - I’d like to continue my long(ish) outdoor rides whilst using TR. I really like TR, I’m now on the mid level of base training and I have seen improvements in my FTP already, I also feel stronger and I can tolerate the burn much better now!
So, I don’t want to mess this up with substituting my longer rides for training but I do like to actually get out on my bike as well.
Yesterday, I had a nice easy TR session, so I got up early and did that, then went to work (about 30km), then out to meet friends and home again (about 80km). This was fine, but I have a couple of harder sessions coming up, 1 this evening (that should be okay, although I feel a little tired from yesterday, and then another (the hardest of the week) tomorrow, a 150 to 200km ride the next day, then another hard(ish) TR session the day after.
Sensible people would just not do the big ride but is there a way to factor this in instead of one or both of the training sessions by having TR estimate the TSS (I don’t have power meters outdoors). Would a long easy ride with the same TSS as a shorter, harder ride yield the same fitness benefits?

A little over a year ago, Joe Biden pulled out of Afghanistan in the most disastrous way. Despite advice from his own military officials, Biden removed US troops from Afghanistan before getting US citizens and allies out of the country first.
Because of Biden’s haphazard withdrawal, 13 American troop members lost their lives when the Kabul airport was bombed. It’s also been widely speculated that Biden’s mismanagement of the Afghanistan withdrawal inspired Russian President Vladimir Putin to invade Ukraine.
Unfortunately, the negative fallout from the Afghanistan withdrawal continues. Just recently, the extent of US military equipment that Biden left for the Taliban terrorists came to light.
Rolling Out the Red Carpet For the Taliban
The Department of Defense revealed the military equipment that Biden left for the Taliban has a value total of about $7.12 billion. This equipment ranges from small arms weapons to ground vehicles, military aircraft, and more than the Taliban could have asked for.
The vehicles alone aren’t even run-of-the-mill. They have the power to resist mines and other explosives that would ordinarily blast through just about anything.
A year ago — Joe Biden left OVER $7 BILLION worth of military equipment behind in Afghanistan.
Who do you think has their hands on that now?
I'll tell you — the Taliban.
— Rep. Pat Fallon (@RepPatFallon) August 19, 2022
The report from the Defense Department comes after Biden previously said his withdrawal from Afghanistan was a “success.” In the past year, even some Democrats suggested the president could have handled the withdrawal from Afghanistan with better tact and strategy.
Republicans have warned that because of Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Taliban now has more than it could possibly ask for to wage terror on various nations, including the United States.
Avoiding the Consequences of His Actions
Monday, August 15 marked the anniversary of Biden’s disastrous withdrawal that led to the Taliban getting billions in weapons. While many conservatives made note of this, the president couldn’t even be bothered to acknowledge the 13 service members who lost their lives in Kabul.
On top of this, the White House has yet to announce what happened to the US citizens and allies who were left behind when Biden removed American troops. Shortly after the withdrawal, the president’s administration claimed no US citizen would be left behind.
Nevertheless, there’s been no real updates on this matter whatsoever.

Republicans maintain that Biden keeping his handshake agreement with the Taliban was more important to him than US troops, US citizens, and allies who helped Americans fight the war on terror.

A shoutout and big congratulations to Patton and his owner Todd on obtaining their Grand Championship (GCH) August 21st. Patton is a hunting companion who attends shows on a limited basis. He has done very well and we look forward to sharing future updates on his hunting adventures.
I love keeping in touch with CoolWater Chesapeake puppy owners and over the years I have developed many wonderful friendships because of these crazy dogs. Even though I talk with many of our puppy owners regularly, and I keep up with them on Facebook, Instagram and via e-mail, every once in awhile I’m surprised.
Today I was surprised when I learned that Patton, CH CoolWaters Patton’s Destiny Is Some Great Thing, was entered in the Nashua, NH dog show. Patton being entered in the show, wasn’t too surprising as I know his owner Todd does enter him in various events every so often, however, his winning a Group 3 win is! What great news to receive!
Congratulations to Todd, Patton’s owner, and to Sue Burrell with Burrell Handling, for helping Patton excel in the show ring! Here’s to Team Patton — we wish you all many more future successes!
Patton, CH CoolWater’s Patton’s Destiny is Some Great Thing, owned by Todd Smith, earned a Group 4 Placement in Wrentham, MA, June 28. Patton just turned two years of age June 9. Patton is handled by Susan Burrell.
Good job, guys!
Thought I’d give a little update from our recent time at the Chessie National Specialty.
Jesse – GCH** CoolWater’s The Tide Is High – made it through two cuts in the breed ring.
Patton – CH CoolWater’s Patton’s Destiny is Some Great Thing – placed in sweeps and made the first cut in a very competitive breed ring.
Fen – SHR CoolWater’s Roane Point BN, RN- picked up two new titles Beginners Novice Obedience (BN) and Rally Novice(RN). She also earned her first leg towards her Companion Dog title (CD). In conformation, Fen took 4th in a large class with many other nice Chesapeakes. This gave Fen the Versatility award – qualifying in three events.
All in all I couldn’t be prouder of our crew and the dogs who did their best to give us 100% each time we asked.
Boy, I love it when I receive news that I wasn’t expecting. It was a great weekend for our gang and I thought I’d share some of the updates:
- Fen (Logan x Nova) – SHR CoolWater’s Roane Point – picked up her first Junior Hunter pass and her sire his first Master Hunter pass in GA.
- Patton (Logan x Nova) – CH CoolWater’s Patton’s Destiny Is Some Great Thing – completed his AKC Championship in Springfield, MA.
- Patton finished his Championship in 5 weekends with 3 majors at just under 10 months of age!
- Oak (Nash x Morgan) – GCH* Jala’s Misty Hill CoolWater Oak – earned 3-Group 3’s and 1-Group 2 win in Birmingham, Alabama.
I am just over the moon excited for everyone and their accomplishments! What a wonderful weekend.

PRESS RELEASE • 20th June 2012
Cascais presented as MOD70 European Tour Stopover
The world-renowned destination of Cascais, by Lisbon in Portugal will host the second stop on the MOD70 European Tour between September 12th and 20th.
Cascais is the longest city stop of the five venues, which will see the exciting, one-design fleet of 70-foot grand prix trimarans, and their world-class crews race from Kiel in Germany to Italy. The tour covers more than 5000 miles and visits five countries.
As the centrepiece of a comprehensive itinerary of different events off Cascais, this stage will include a demanding ‘Around Portugal’ offshore race as well as visually spectacular coastal race from Cascais, up the Tagus river to Lisbon and also short, sprint and City races on the bay which should enthral spectators whilst challenging all the skills of the crews aboard the five MOD70’s.
After starting in Kiel, Germany the MOD70 European Tour will arrive in Cascais as the finish of the second leg from Dublin, Ireland, and will see the fleet start out for the passage to Marseille on 20th September.
The reputation of Cascais as a host area for world class sailing events continues to grow. In recent years these Portuguese waters, which are immediately open to the Atlantic and are blessed with an enviable record for consistent, strong racing breezes, have hosted every size and level of events from the Olympic classes’ ISAF Sailing World Championships, to the TP52’s Audi MedCup, the America’s Cup World Series to the Match Racing World Tour and the IMOCA Open 60’s Europa Warm’Up race. But the MOD70 European Tour will offer a truly unprecedented schedule of events to be raced off Cascais, which are expected to attract sailing and sports fans.
The two-day offshore race will take the fleet north to turn off Porto, south with the Portuguese tradewinds to Cape St Vincent off the SW corner of Portugal to a finish back in Cascais.
Among the skippers and crews competing will be two times Vendée Globe winner Michel Desjoyeaux on FONCIA, Stève Ravussin on Race for Water, Sébastien Josse on Groupe Edmond de Rothschild, Yann Guichard on Spindrift racing and Sydney Gavignet on Musandam-Oman Sail.
The Cascais stopover was officially launched today at the Clube Naval de Cascais where the Mayor of Cascais, the MOD70 European Tour Event Manager Hervé Favre, and the director of the Clube Naval de Cascais Francisco Geraldes joined together to make a presentation to the Portuguese media.
12th September: Expected finish of Leg 2 from Dublin
13th September: Rest Day
14th September: Cascais Speed Match
15th September: Cascais City Race
16th September: Cascais City Race
17th September: Offshore ‘Around Portugal’
18th September: finish Offshore ‘Around Portugal’
19th September: Rest Day
20th September: Start Leg 3: Cascais to Marseille
Hervé Favre, MOD70 European Tour Event Manager:
“Arriving in Cascais should mark the MOD70 European Tour reaching southern Europe and the crews by then, most probably, will welcome some warmth after their passage round to the north of Scotland and the Fastnet.
But that is not to say the programme will be restful, with a coastal race from Cascais to Lisbon, two days of City Match and Speed Races before an offshore race ‘Around Portugal’ which will take the MOD70’s to Porto then Cape St Vincent before returning to Cascais. I am sure that the experience of the Clube Naval de Cascais and the town, is that of an organisation which is well used to hosting major sailing events, which will complement the efforts of the sailors.”
Stève Ravussin, skipper of Race For Water:
“The weather conditions off Portugal and in particular Cascais are great, especially for sailing. I am looking forwards to returning to a place that I know well. The pleasant climate is complemented by the enthusiasm of the local people and knowledge and experience of the Clube Naval de Cascais and the town in holding major events ensure this promises to be a great stopover. The programme will be buy and the competition on these waters will be a treat.”
Carlos Carreiras, Mayor of Cascais:
“Cascais welcomes the MOD70s. It is another World Class Event in our waters. We have hosted most of the different classes in our Race Course area now and the MOD70 were the one that was missing. The presence of top world sailors is also important for our young sailors who will have the opportunity to see and learn from some of their sailing idols. From today, the MOD70 Class is linked with Cascais and they will be our ambassadors.”
Francisco Geraldes, Clube Naval de Cascais Member of the Board:
“The Clube Naval de Cascais is honoured to have the MOD70′s sailing in our waters. This Event is special because almost the whole of the country will have the possibility to see these magnificent boats when they race off Oporto and the Algarve.”

Vermont Gas Pays $1.75 Million For Pipeline Opponent's Land
In an effort to secure land rights for its natural gas pipeline to Addison County, Vermont Gas Systems bought a property along the planned pipeline route for $1.75 million. According to land records, that's nearly twice the property's assessed value.
The Monkton property belonged to Louise Peyser, who along with her daughter Melanie worked to fight the pipeline’s passage through the family property. Its assessed value in Monkton land records is $889,800. (This is not necessarily the same value an appraisal or sale would generate.)
In addition to paying nearly double the assessed value for the property, Vermont Gas announced last week that the pipeline itself is now expected to cost nearly twice the amount company officials previously said it would.
When the Vermont Public Service Board approved the project in December of 2013, officials estimated the pipeline’s cost to be $86.6 million. According to an estimate released June 21, the company now plans to pay 91 percent more than that — $165.6 million.
The Peyser property was one of a few properties that the company still needs permission to build through before it can complete the pipeline. Another property, Hinesburg’s Geprags Park, poses a continuing problem for the company’s plans to build a pipeline into Addison County. A group of citizens in Hinesburg is fighting the company’s eminent domain case before the Vermont Public Service Board.
Vermont Gas spokeswoman Beth Parent declined multiple requests for interviews for this story.
The company’s purchase of the Peyser property means the family will not face off against Vermont Gas at the Public Service Board in an eminent domain case.
Vermont Gas and the Department of Public Service, which represents the interests of Vermonters before the Public Service Board, agreed to a deal last year that limits the amount of pipeline costs that the company can build into customer rates.
The department’s commissioner, Chris Recchia, said Wednesday that his understanding of that deal is that costs related to paying far above market value for a property would not be covered by customers.
With any purchase like this, Recchia said in a voicemail, the department’s assessment of whether it could be included in rates is based on whether the spending is considered “prudent.”
“Obviously we need to think about the pros or cons of paying more than you should in order to gain time and save money elsewhere, so that’s the type of evaluation we would do,” he said.

Location: Manhattan, New York, USA
Project Type: Memorial
The nature of the world is that it is always transforming; randomly and erratically. It’s a product of circumstances, changes, of forces beyond our scope and reach. One such change is natural calamities. No matter how high we build our walls, how deep we lay our foundations, they end up affecting us, challenging the very core of our existence- forcing us to rebuild the foundations of our life from rock bottom.
And yet changes are the fabric of life. The known depth of this fractal is birth, and every change results in a rebirth. Despite the knowledge of the fractal nature of change, we choose to be; we persist, resilient like never before.
This sculpture is that process, moving out from enclosed safety to the enormity of the world. Its core is the three-pointed cosmological Taíno’ Cemi/Zemí’, where the central peak is the home to Yaya, the creator, the mouth like point representing Coabey, the land of the dead and the final point representing Goiz, the land of the living. The triad converges at the womb, representing the seed of life, a core to sustain the creator, the destroyer and the preserver. To the Taíno, zemí is an abstract, a concept imbued with the power to alter circumstances and social relations.
And for us, zemí is the symbol of power, to tell the world, that despite changing civilisations, evolution, invasions and times, we will come to be, continue to be, just like zemí, never fading in the rings of life. Despite all odds, we rise, survive and thrive, like we always have!
It’s a contrast between the strong swirl of winds where life struggles to exist and a complicated thread of change, moving along existence to create a fractal that we call life.

Abby on Active Listening and Understanding Clients’ Goals
You may believe that an interior designer’s responsibility is to tell you what to do with a given space, and if you’re seeking advice, this is certainly a part of their job. However, many clients know what they’re looking for, but have a difficult time expressing it with words and pictures.
We spoke with Abby Craighton, Interior Designer at Dwell Home Furnishings to hear her story and learn the unobtrusive approach she uses to make clients’ dreams a reality.
Q: How did you get started doing design?
It goes way back to college. I was majoring in theater and I was into the whole scene but mostly interested in costumes and sets—the creative side of it. My brother suggested I try something in the design world. As my older brother, he could see my talent and where I could grow. I took an interior design class and I was immediately hooked. I switched my major the day after the first class and joined the design program, which I loved. It was fantastic. After graduation, I got an internship at a design firm, was there for a little over five years, and then came to Dwell Home Furnishings and I’ve been here a little over two months.
One thing I like about Dwell is the size of the showroom, and the ability to have lots of products on the floor that our customers can look at and see. In a very online world, being able to show them samples and colors, exactly how something sits, and the comfort level they will get is extremely valuable. Even if they special order something, you can show them what it’s going to sit like and what the fabric will be like. A lot of clients have a hard time visualizing a design and anything we can do to help with that definitely benefits the whole process.
Q: What else sets Dwell apart from other design firms?
Dwell is a fairly large company in our industry for being a locally owned small business. There’s a big group of designers and we have more of a team mindset here. Yes, we each have our own projects, but we ask the opinions of the other designers. This leads to our customers receiving a nice well-rounded design because there’s input from several designers as opposed to just one.
Q: What is your favorite thing about what you do?
Obviously, the finished product is the fun part. But I also really enjoy it when a client has lived in a space I’ve designed for a while and grows into the choices we’ve made together. That’s the point at which I get to see our hard work exemplified and they are able to truly appreciate the vision we had all along. The very best part is when they say, “This is the first time space has felt like our home and not just a house.”
Q: That’s the true test because sometimes there’s that shock factor with the initial reveal.
Yes, everything looks great at the final install, but now after they’ve lived in it a while, it not only still looks great, but it’s passed the functionality test and it turns out to be exactly what they were looking for.
Q: You say you work here more as a team, so you get to know the other designers pretty well. Is there anything that is unique about your approach?
Definitely. We all have our own approach. Mine is very detailed-focused, but I have my own short hand, so while the process might look messy to someone else, in my brain it all makes sense. It’s how I figure it all out down to the smallest detail; leg finish, welt color, pillows, etc. I have a very creative process, but it’s functional to me.
As for how I work with clients, I always try to let them talk as much as possible. I want to get their voice, and get what they’re looking for before I give any input. I don’t want to insert an idea that could lead them in the wrong direction. I let them describe what they’re looking for, any problem areas, and their sense of style, so I can go back, interpret, and fill in the blanks.
Q: So instead of guiding them, you’re more focused on listening and interpreting.
Yes, if you ask a client if they like something specific, and they say yes because they want to be polite, you could end up building an entire design around one piece they don’t even like. What you’re left with then, is a design that isn’t for them at all.
We have so much to see and everything here is gorgeous, but one specific look may not be your style and it may not be something you’d like to live with for 20 years. That is why having interior designers on hand is so beneficial. We are able to help dig deep and find the pieces that speak to each of our clients. We definitely have something for everyone!
Q: What do you spend most of your time doing at Dwell?
A lot of it is background or behind-the-scenes work and searching for the product. I think that’s what I spend the most time doing. Especially when it’s something specific and you have to really search all your vendors to find that perfect piece. I really enjoy this part of my job because it’s a hunt and the hardest items to find are so much more satisfying when you finally do find them. It’s not just something that could work, it’s the “nail on the head” piece.
Q: What’s something you’re fascinated with right now?
Right now, it’s style mixing. There are tons of different design styles, but what I’ve been drawn to lately is mixing different styles together and creating a layered design including an element of traditional and an element of something modern. I like to make a more curated look as opposed to something that has to fit into a rigid style. A little more cohesive than an eclectic look, it has hints of other styles but everything ties together as a style of its own.
Q: What are the benefits of this technique?
It lasts longer over time because it has pieces that you can emphasize one way or the other. So maybe you start with a very traditional design but as you grow, your style becomes more modern. The layered design allows you to ease your way into that without locking you out. It doesn’t limit you to a trend that could be dead in a year. You have the ability to evolve within your design.
Q: What’s the most important skill you have and what’s something you’d like to learn?
One thing I have learned is how to interpret what customers haven’t said. A lot of people can tell you what they don’t like and they can show you pictures, but it’s difficult for them to pin down exactly what they want. Taking in all the information and interpreting their dream from that has been my biggest learning curve. In school, you learn all the elements of design and the technical background but you don’t really get a sense of how to talk to clients and ask the right questions. That’s probably 85% of this job and you really learn those things from experience.
Lighting is something I’d love to experiment more with. I know what will look good and I know how to mix different lights, but I’m interested in the more technical side of it. Different light fixtures have certain wattage and lumens and knowing what’s going to be just enough, too much, or too little for a given space is a valuable skill. I know there are specific lighting designers that focus on this alone and that’s something I’d love to learn more about to give me that advantage when helping clients.
Q: Are there any design myths you can bust?
You definitely don’t have to spend a ton of money in order to achieve good design. What a lot of people might not know is you can hire us for design advice and then use that to pick out items that are within your budget. Or we can break things down into stages. We can start with a dream plan and execute it room by room or piece by piece. Having a plan from the beginning helps the entire space flow and feel like it was done all at once.
Another myth clients get stuck in is the odd numbers rule and I would say it’s not as strict as people think. Sometimes it works out that way and odd numbers do work better, but it’s more of an overall balance and symmetry that’s the priority.
In general, a lot of myths come from people who get a rule in their head and they think they have to follow it. The fun part about design and being a designer is breaking out of the box and being innovative and unique to create something that speaks.

This paper deals with the flow characteristics of air-water two-phase flow in a vertical tube of 10mm I.D. and 600mm in length at an adiabatic condition. The obtained experimental data were covered with the liquid superficial velocity ranging from 0.095m/s to 2.56m/s. and the gas superficial velocity ranging from 0.032m/s to 21.08m/s. The effects of the gas and liquid superficial velocity on the flow pattern transitions, frictional pressure drop, and film thickness and gas-liquid interface roughness were also examined. It was found that the film thickness increased and the liquid film wave length was more longer with the liquid superficial velocity
constant. It was also showed that the frictional pressure drops were experienced in three regions. namely increasing region(bubbly flow), decreasing region (Taylor bubble and slug flows) and re-increasing region (annular flow).

Application of G-equation to large eddy simulation of turbulent premixed flame around a bluff body inside a cylindrical chamber
Choi Chang-Yong ; Park Nam-Seob ; Ko Sang-Cheol ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Marine Engineering, volume 29, issue 4, 2005, Pages 391~398
In this investigation, turbulent premixed combustion and flame front propagation in a gas turbine combustion chamber is studied. Direct numerical simulation of turbulent reacting flows demands extremely high computational resources, especially in more complicated geometry. The alternative choice may be left for Large Eddy Simulation (LES) by which only large scales are solved directly. In combustion problems, capturing the large scales' behavior without solving the details of small scales is a difficult task. Using a transport equation for description of the flame front propagation and therefore avoiding the calculation of inner flame structure is the basic idea of this study. For this purpose. the so-called G-equation has been used by which any iso-level of the G variable provides the flame location. A comparison with the experiment indicates that the present method can predict a turbulent velocity field and also capture a instantaneous 3-dimensional flame structure.

When I began this blog I had a few ideas of what I wanted to focus on, but my main passion at the time was photography. Over the last few years, blogging took a back seat while I explored an option to do something that has always defined a large core of my personality: helping people.
In 2013 I attended the Rhodes College in Vancouver, BC, and discovered a passion for life coaching. As part of preparing myself to walk the walk I had weight loss surgery during my time at Rhodes, and shed the extra pounds that had plagued me for almost my entire life. By tackling my biggest health issue I was able to create a better life for myself, and for my partner, R. I was able to face the world with greater confidence.
As I became more physically active I began the spend far less time at a computer, and this blog began to grow virtual-dust.
Time to resuscitate As I See It, and give it new life.
There will be multiple focuses to this site from here on, a mixture of photography and life coaching, with a sprinkle of the odd side dish surprise.
Please check in often!

Purified water can likewise be utilized in PC water-cooling systems. It is water that has been mechanically filtered or processed to remove impurities and make it suitable for use. It is usually produced by the purification of potable water (city water) or natural water. Demineralised water isn’t generally employed for drinking water, because it’s the minerals in potable water that supply the health advantages and taste. There are two primary methods for producing demineralised H20.
Since distilled water has no minerals, it’s not going to have these prospective added benefits. It is one of the purest water types available. It has been boiled as part of its purification process.
You can have this aquarium easily, as long as you adhere to some tips that are necessary to be followed as a way to keep up a proper house for your pet from the ocean. As a way to bring cyanobacteria in check, the aquarium has to be cleaned thoroughly. Adding to the lengthy collection of people who think keeping a saltwater aquarium is beside impossible.
DI filtration is used whenever there is a demand for ultra-pure H20 or non-electrical current H20. It is readily removed with biological filtration. There are three major kinds of filtration employed in saltwater aquarium setups. Biological filtration has become the most significant part an aquarium set-up. Reverse osmosis filtration is the exact same technology used by the majority of bottled water businesses.
You should choose if you prefer to establish a tank with just fish or a tank with live rocks also. By abiding By these easy suggestions, you can establish an amazing salt water tank provided you can maintain it regularly. You should buy the biggest possible tank which suits your budget along with the space where you would like to keep it.
In case the water is not advised for aquarium fish, then you ought to likewise not use it together with herps, especially amphibians. Based on the form of aquarium the RO water is used for, it might be required to bring these critical minerals back into the purified water. If that’s the case, there is something which you should know about aquarium water. With the proper Ro system, you should be prepared to deal with any contaminated aquarium water.
Water is pumped from the tank, forced via the cannister, then returned to the tank. Demineralized H20 has a greater conductivity than deionised H20. Bottled all-natural spring water is most likely the safest to utilize for amphibians, though it is probably advisable to utilize a pH test strip to ascertain the pH of the water, to make sure that it is appropriate for the particular species that you’re keeping.
If you’re using tap water, you’re working against yourself. In the event the tap water is unfiltered a very good quality dechlorinator has to be used. Water from the tap includes many impurities. DI Water produces large amounts of the peak quality, ultra-pure water utilizing a process which is economical, efficient, and continuous.
Your water is currently silicate free and is about to be used. Laboratory Tests as a way to gain accurate outcome, ordinary water isn’t utilized in laboratory tests. With this film, it is possible to always wind up getting the proper clean water you want.
