Once you start looking, opportunities for group travel or customized tours pop up everywhere—on TV, in newspapers and magazines, in your mailbox. Older adults are joining in these adventures with spouses, family and friends, and even solo. In a recent study of more than 10,000 travelers, Visa found that 40 percent opted to use an outside organization for making tour arrangements.
Viking River Cruises, Post-Gazette theater jaunts, PICT visits to Ireland, the Smithsonian, Carnegie Museum, The New York Times, the National Trust, university alumni trips, even the church or synagogue bulletin could be touting an excursion. The Visa study found that people chose travel destinations almost equally for good scenery, good attractions and the richness of the culture or heritage. Helping to appreciate the latter are the expert-led tours that offer in-depth understanding of people and places. One of the most popular travel organizations that goes almost everywhere and has a strong educational component is Road Scholar.
Celebrating its 40th anniversary, Road Scholar has shed its college campus Elderhostel beginnings and now books quality hotels, in the heart of Pittsburgh or the heart of Beijing; some 6,500 “learning adventures” in all 50 states and 150 countries. Cruises, photo shoots, art tours, national park visits, train trips, city life, music and dance—there is something for every taste led by experts, usually with suggested advance reading. Their method has proved a hit with many Mt. Lebanon residents.
Bob and Carol Miller raised their family in three successive homes in Mt. Lebanon before retiring to Providence Point. Bob was stage manager for the Syria Mosque and Carol taught in the Fox Chapel school district. They have been exploring the world together for more than half a century, from vacationing in campers to a high-end tour of Kenya and Tanzania with the 90-year-old family-owned Tauck tour company, and everywhere in between. Their first trip with Road Scholar, back when it was still “Elderhostel,” was a cruise through the Panama Canal. Says Carol, “You are going with a group of people who are well traveled, very flexible and interested in learning. And you have very good leaders.” The Millers recently returned from a trip to Cuba with Road Scholar and were preparing a presentation to share with their fellow residents. They have also taken tours sponsored by the Post-Gazette, Heinz History Center and others.
Smithsonian Journeys is about 45 years old and operates on much the same principles as Road Scholar, with a commitment to “the increase and diffusion of knowledge.” General manager Karen Ledwin says their most popular destinations include Italy, Cuba and Peru. Ledwin is especially excited about 2016’s Panama Canal Passage and Costa Rica Cruise, which will include an excursion to the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama, where environmental and ecological studies are conducted. “I have become so impressed with our research facilities,” she says.
Retired librarian Judy Sutton, Avon Drive, a widow, compares a “wild” 1980 family trip to England and Scotland, that she worked with a travel agent to plan, to last year’s visit to Scotland with Smithsonian Journeys: “It was a hell of a lot easier! The most fabulous young woman was our tour guide, with us the entire time.” Sutton loves the small groups of around 20, the history imparted by the guides, and the free time and options built into the tours.
National Trust Tours, also offered now for 45 years, are popular with travelers in the area. Associate Director Meg Annacone-Poretz says, “Cruises tend to be the most popular with our constituency—the ability to unpack once.” The organization’s most popular cruises are through the Hudson River Valley, Panama Canal and the Caribbean, and its trip to the U.K. is a big hit as well.
“We provide access to expert leaders who bring the destination alive. Our staff has traveled to most of the destinations we offer so we can talk at length with people about the experience they can expect.”
National Trust, Smithsonian Journeys and Road Scholar are all also considering how to offer more customizable tours. “People want to really get inside a destination and live like a local, while still having the support of the group,” says Lindsay Senior of Smithsonian Journeys. “We also want to give flexibility in how scheduled they want to be. We want to provide rich, immersive experiences.” Among other offerings for 2016 from Smithsonian Journeys will be 12-day stays in Paris and London, and three-week regional “live-ins” in Provence, Ubud, in Bali, and Tuscany.
Even the most seasoned travelers enjoy the tour experience now and again. Bob Winston, 88, did a lot of travelling as a lawyer for Westinghouse and has not stopped in retirement. Although the twice-widowed Providence Point resident prefers making his own plans, he concedes that group travel with a limited number of people is not inexpensive but can be an elegant way to go. He has used Vantage Deluxe World Travel for river tours and particularly remembers a cruise on the Danube with an Italian-speaking Dutch tour guide as excellent and reasonably priced for the services provided.
Recently Winston has discovered Times Journeys, with the motto, “Travel Smarter. Gain Understanding. Return Inspired.” Working with a handful of top-notch tour operators, the New York Times offers its journalists and experts as guides on what Winston terms “off-beat” trips for subscribers to the paper. He and his companion returned recently from a 22-person trip through Venice, Florence and Milan, “In the Steps of Verdi and Puccini.” Led by the Times’ Italian-speaking opera expert Fred Plotkin, the trip offered operatic and gastronomic pleasures that an individual would be hard-pressed to create on his own.
Organizations offering group travel recognize a demand for activities such as hiking, biking and the like from many participants and have stepped up to offer them.
Ann Winkelstein, Firwood Drive, has never let widowhood keep her from roaming. She particularly enjoys group sailing trips—the kind where the travelers are the sailors. She has gone on a half dozen excursions, most with King Yacht Charters, organizer of flotilla trips for Cruising World magazine. “You are the crew,” on a four- to six-person sloop or catamaran.
Single travelers must already know how to sail, while only one in a couple needs to know how. Four or five boats travel together, with the organizers in a lead vessel. Winkelstein has seen America’s Cups in Spain and New Zealand in this way, sailed the Croatian coastline and done blue water sailing (“sometimes the other boats are not in sight, just radio contact”) in French Polynesia. Since her first time, Winkelstein has run into people from previous trips, not a typical happening on other kinds of tours.
For her journeys on land, Winkelstein sometimes relies on Overseas Adventure Travel for small group tours of 10 to 12 people that emphasize local culture. “We stay at nice hotels, but local hotels,” eat at local restaurants, visit in the homes of residents. She has seen China and Tibet in this way. She loved the colorful painted patterns on the beams in her Tibetan hotel room, and will never forget seeing natives on pilgrimage to the Dalai Lama’s Potala Palace, “three steps, then down on their knees and bow to the ground,” only to endlessly repeat, all the way from their homes throughout the country. Overseas Adventure builds free time into their trips, which Winkelstein appreciates as well.
Winkelstein recently spent a week making pasta and gnocchi at Al Ciocco (“the stump”) a hotel/restaurant in Farneta, Italy, offering cooking classes and side excursions to visit cheese and vinegar makers.
Another local couple suggested even more travel organizations to choose from. Old Farm Road residents Rick and Donna Erisman have been traveling together since 1988, and as they have gotten older, letting others do the driving has gained appeal—especially when it’s on the opposite side of the road! They also appreciated a guide to crack the language barrier on their trip to China. “As long as we get to see a lot,” says Donna, who along with Rick prizes the educational aspect of travel.
Rick, a retired National Park Service ranger and Navy vet, was especially pleased for Donna, a retired librarian with the Chartiers Valley school district, to experience going through the Panama Canal, which they did on a Norwegian Cruise line tour from Miami to Los Angeles.
The Erismans have also cruised with Viking and Oceania, and traveled with Brendan Vacations, Proxima Travel and even a trip to Poland with St. Winifred’s Church. They lucked out in Mexico, when their tour “group” consisted of just them and a guide, and had a similar experience in Peru.
Among their other memorable experiences was a 16-person balloon ride over the Serengeti in Tanzania. Coming up in the fall is a 25-day tour of Australia, New Zealand and Fiji with Globus Tours. “I have learned to pack lighter,” says Donna.
This writer, with a single Road Scholar adventure under her belt that was only an hour from home, has been fired up with wanderlust just interviewing this adventurous bunch. My trip? A terrific in-depth look at Frank Lloyd Wright held at a Mt. Pleasant conference center with trips to Fallingwater, Kentuck Knob and Duncan House, as well as visits to a local restaurant and a winery, topical films and lectures, hands-on team construction of a paper cantilevered deck and a talk by 100-year-old Elsie Henderson, former Fallingwater cook.
Led by staff from the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, which maintains Fallingwater, the four-day program drew 24 participants from all over. The experience convinced me that this type of travel is a wonderful way to move about the world. Consider one of these group experiences when you are planning that next trip. Me—I have my eye on France….

In reading the Phaedo I was struck by a certain phrasing that Socrates used in discussing the afflictions of the body, in contrast to the sublimity of the soul. The context is Socrates addressing Cebes and pointing out we can be mistaken into thinking that the perceptions of the body, in pleasure and pain, are the “most distinct and true.” Socrates says that the soul is put in bonds (καταδέω) by the body, and when Cebes asks how, Socrates replies:
Because each pleasure and pain, is, as it were, in possession of a nail, and they nail the soul to the body, fastening it on (προσπερονάω) and making it bodily, considering the very things to be true which the body says are true (Phaedo 83d4-6) 1.
On the other hand, in C.S. Lewis’s moral masterpiece The Screwtape Letters, written from the perspective of a senior devil giving advice to his apprentice, who is assigned as a malign tempter, there is this piece of insight.
Prosperity knits a man to the World. He feels that he is “finding his place in it”, while really it is finding its place in him.
What garnered my attention was the thought that the Phaedo reference above was in Lewis’ mind as he wrote this. Lewis goes on to explain that the “knitting” is all the pleasures and accomplishments one can gain in this world.
His increasing reputation, his widening circle of acquaintances, his sense of importance, the growing pressure of absorbing and agreeable work, build up in him a sense of being really at home in earth which is just what we [demons] want.
Whether or not Lewis got his bearings from Plato in this passage I do not know. Lewis was certainly influenced by Plato in his works, as is witnessed by an annoyed Diggory in The Last Battle, the last part of the Chronicles of Narnia:
It’s all in Plato, all in Plato: bless me, what do they teach them at these schools!
I should also mention that there is an engagement with the soul of a star in one of the books, an idea that also appears in Aristotle. Speaking of whom, Aristotle also merits a brief mention in Lewis’ Great Divorce when Lewis is filling out the atmosphere:
However far I went I found only dingy lodging houses, small tobacconists, hoardings from which posters hung in rags, windowless warehouses, goods stations without trains, and bookshops of the sort that sell The Works of Aristotle.
1 Ὅτι ἑκάστη ἡδονὴ καὶ λύπη ὥσπερ ἧλον ἔχουσα προσηλοῖ
αὐτὴν πρὸς τὸ σῶμα καὶ προσπερονᾷ καὶ ποιεῖ σωματοειδῆ, (5)
δοξάζουσαν ταῦτα ἀληθῆ εἶναι ἅπερ ἂν καὶ τὸ σῶμα φῇ.

When it comes to staying healthy, most people think of eating well, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep. However, even with the most balanced lifestyle, our body may still be struggling to function optimally, leaving us feeling fatigued, irritable, and unmotivated. This is where testosterone replacement therapy near me comes in.
TRT therapy is short for Testosterone Replacement Therapy, which is a method of replacing the testosterone in the body to help regulate its functions. While some may think testosterone replacement is only for bodybuilders or older men, the truth is that testosterone deficiency can affect anyone, including women.
1. Increased Energy Levels
One of the most common symptoms of low testosterone levels is chronic fatigue. This can make it difficult to go about your daily routine, impacting your productivity and overall quality of life. TRT therapy has been shown to boost energy levels by increasing testosterone levels, helping you feel more focused and motivated throughout the day.
2. Improved Mental Clarity
Foggy mental clarity is another common symptom of low testosterone levels. TRT therapy can help improve your brain function, allowing you to think clearer and faster. This is especially beneficial for those in high-stress jobs or for those who require optimal mental performance.
3. Increased Muscle Mass
Testosterone is a hormone that is involved in muscle development and strength. TRT therapy can help you build and maintain muscle mass, which is essential for maintaining a healthy weight and preventing age-related muscle loss.
4. Lowered Risk of Heart Disease
Testosterone plays an important role in maintaining heart health. Studies have shown that low testosterone levels increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. TRT therapy can help reduce the risk of heart disease and improve overall cardiovascular health.
5. Improved Sexual Function
Low testosterone levels can lead to a decreased sex drive and poor sexual performance. TRT therapy can help improve sexual function and libido, positively impacting intimacy and sexual relationships.
In conclusion, TRT therapy can provide a range of health benefits for both men and women. From increased energy levels to improved mental clarity, muscle mass, and sexual function, TRT therapy may be the missing piece to your health puzzle. However, it is important to consult a qualified healthcare professional before considering TRT therapy to ensure it is a safe and appropriate treatment option for your individual needs.
While TRT therapy can be beneficial for some, it is important to remember that there are potential risks involved and proper monitoring should always be conducted throughout treatment. With appropriate management, however, the health benefits of TRT therapy may make a big difference in overall quality of life.
TRT therapy can be an effective treatment for those with low testosterone levels, but it is not the only option. Other approaches such as lifestyle modifications, nutrition, and supplement use may also help to improve symptoms. It is best to speak with a healthcare professional to find out which approach will work best for you. With proper management of your health and well-being, you can enjoy the long-term benefits of TRT therapy.

The world of movie distribution is a tough place. After fighting and sweating to finish a movie you’re mentally and physically exhausted.
You just want to take a break and rest, but you can’t because finishing a movie is only half the battle. It’s time to enter the world of movie distribution.
Movie distribution is a tough place for filmmakers new to the grind. It’s hard to switch off the creative mind to deal with the business side of selling movies.
What I’ve learned the hard way is the movie distribution really starts with promoting and marketing a movie.

It's all about the cake cake cake.
We love a couple who isn't afraid to ditch a traditional wedding cake for something more daring. Not only are the flavors of the fall season—cinnamon, nutmeg, maybe even a little pumpkin spice—exceptionally decadent, the design inspiration is endless. While an all-white cake can be classic, try adding a little color, texture, or metallics all in the name of fall! For autumn weddings, copper, burgundy, and a range of moody shades are always a good idea—especially on a cake. Adding seasonal flora and foliage? Even better.
If you weren't so sure a fall wedding was for you, these 20 decadent wedding cakes make a pretty compelling case.

WHAT ARE SLOT MACHINES?
Before providing you with ways to win maximum money from a slot machine, it’s better to understand how slot machines work. Unlike traditional table games at casinos ( poker, crap, roulette, blackjack), online casino Sverige installed slot games to distract casual gamers since they do not require gambling knowledge. One can easily play it with small betting. The massive success of slot machines among the gamers made it one of the famous and profitable games, moving it off the sidelines. Over the years, the design and technique of slot machines changed drastically, but the game had remained the same. Now, these machines are computer-controlled.
For this game, the players pull the puller on the side of the machine making the reel spin in a fast motion. The player to win the reel has to show the same winning picture on all the reels (usually three) and has to line up to the pay line. The players get a payout determined by the notion that lands on the pay line on winning.
But how can you win on slot machines by not depending merely on your luck? Don’t worry. We got you covered. Now, you would come across many pieces of advice and ways to win at slot machines, but how many of them made any sense? Did they benefit you before? If not, then you have come to the right place. Let’s summarize some of the essential techniques which can help you play smarter and make you win on these slot machines.
HOW DO SLOT MACHINES WORK?
Before knowing any other tact, one should better understand how slot machines work. The slot machines have been fully computerized, and one should understand how it operates. The modern slot machines game in mainland Spela blackjack online uses a random number generator (RNG) software. RNG is a process that generates a sequence of random and unpredictable numbers or symbols. This composite system of number or symbol generator produces millions of probable results in seconds. When the player spins it, the reels actually spin-off the many future results.
One important thing is that some slot machines offer better odds than the others; with simple bankroll-extending tricks, the players can give them more chances to win with better opportunities.
READING SLOT MACHINES REVIEWS
Although winning on a slot machine can be a matter of luck, one of the essential things that most people don’t do is read reviews regarding these slot machines. From these online reviews, the players can get a lot of information and know a few tricks. These reviews will talk about the most cost-effective feature, how to trigger bonus games and whether a particular game is even worth your investment of both time and money. Since players or casino experts write these reviews, you can trust them.
Casino Utan Svensk license offers different casino games that you can play online without any difficulty of being in lockdown.
People who love playing real money slots must fully understand the payout percentage of slot machines. The payout ratio is the average amount of money that the casino will return to the player in the form of winning compared to the amount of money the player puts in a stake.
The payout percentage will not guarantee how much one would win in one or even 100 sessions, but the more spins you make, the better the chances are to get your results closer to the machine’s payout percentage. The payout rate, also called return-to-player percentage (RTP), is calculated over millions of spin reels to produce an average percentage of money that returns to players.
RTP is one crucial tool that can help the players maximize their chance to win. It can help the gamblers choose the slots that have better odds for payouts and avoid ones that don’t. Places with an average RTP of 93-94% give the players a chance to win big.
LOOKOUT OF BONUSES
The features and bonuses in the slot machines can help the player win big. The most common reward in slot machines is free spins. Wager multipliers and huge jackpots are included in the slot machine bonus. To get these bonuses, the players should look out for the play table, which helps you know whether the machine has any perks for wagering requirements to trigger it.
Online Casino Sverige is pleased to offer our players a versatile range of games and bonuses. Our team of creators is making the virtual casino portal easy to use.
MANAGING YOUR BANKROLL
The players who know how to manage their bankrolls tend to win more on slot machines than the gamblers who put all their money at stake for a single spin. Intelligent people know how to manage their bankrolls, put little money on bets for every reel, and choose the slot games that give them the most extended gameplay. So even if they don’t win big, at least they had fun playing. The plates line the bets with their budgets.
All the tactics mentioned above can help you better understand how slot machines work and help you win.
We online casinos Sweden designed slots machines to entertain the players and get them all excited but winning these slot games will double your excitement. All these strategies above will help you double your excitement!

While some educators are celebrating this year’s results of provincial math and literacy tests, others realize there’s room for improvement.
According to the Education Quality and Accountability Office, the number of Grade 9 students in the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) who met the provincial standard remained steady at 83 per cent for academic math, but dropped by two points to 32 per cent in applied math. The percentage of Grade 10 students who met the standard for literacy was also unchanged at 81 per cent.
Still, the board says the upward trend for applied math over the past five years is positive news.
“Important changes are happening right across the TDSB and these results illustrate that,” said the board’s director of education Donna Quan.
“Our students and staff should be proud of the steady, measured progress we have seen over the past five years.”
Grade 9 math results for the board’s Catholic counterpart show a five-year upswing — from 76 per cent to 84 per cent for academic courses and from 34 per cent to 40 per cent for applied courses.
Literacy scores for Grade 10 students were the same as last year’s, but have dropped two percentage points since 2008.
“These test results tell us where we are doing well, but also point to where we can do more,” Toronto Catholic District School Board chair Ann Andrachuk said in a statement.

U.S. Weather Satellite Encapsulated for Launch
LOS ANGELES AIR FORCE BASE, El Segundo, Calif. – The U.S. Air Force, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and United Launch Alliance (ULA) team have successfully moved one step closer to the launching of the 19th Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) block 5D weather satellite. On March 14 engineers completed spacecraft encapsulation within the launch fairing at Vandenberg Air Force Base.
The DMSP-19 encapsulation within the Atlas V launch vehicle payload fairing represents an important milestone for the DMSP-19 launch campaign. This event marks the completion of spacecraft integration, functional testing and compatibility checks with the Air Force Satellite Control Network (AFSCN).
The final phase of the DMSP-19 launch integration process is set to take place. The encapsulated payload will be carried on a transporter to the launch pad. Once at the launch pad, the payload fairing assembly will be lifted and integrated onto the 57 meter tall Atlas V launch vehicle. The Atlas is developed by ULA, headquartered in Denver, CO.
DMSP-19 is scheduled to launch on April 3, 2014. This will be the second time a DMSP satellite is launched with an Atlas V rocket.
For the past 50 years, the DMSP satellites have been the primary provider of terrestrial and space weather information to the US military. DMSP satellites have fulfilled the military’s most critical requirements for global atmospheric, oceanic, terrestrial, and space environment information. DMSP sensors provide imagery in visible, infrared and microwave bands to enhance information available to the warfighter. Through these satellites, military users find, track and forecast weather systems over remote and hostile areas for deployed troops.
The Air Force Space Command’s Space and Missile Systems Center, located at Los Angeles Air Force Base, Calif., is the U.S. Air Force’s center of acquisition excellence for acquiring and developing military space systems. Its portfolio includes GPS, military satellite communications, defense meteorological satellites, space launch and range systems, satellite control networks, space based infrared systems and space situational awareness capabilities.

PCs Simon Gardner and Sam Davies, two of the officers featured in the previous series, are joined in these new episodes by more officers from across GMP, including PC Alex Woodhead and PC Kate Johnson, as they investigate assaults, burglaries and drink drivers.
Chief Constable Ian Hopkins said: “We had overwhelmingly positive feedback to the first series and people recognised the hard work and commitment of the officers and staff who took part. The second series continues to show the challenges they face every day. We receive around 3,000 calls a day from people asking for help across Greater Manchester.
“The programme has shown why we need to continue to transform policing in Greater Manchester and to work in new ways with both our partners and local people. We took part in the documentary as part of continued efforts to give people an insight into Greater Manchester Police, the challenges and the future.”
The Force: Manchester was filmed from January to June 2015 and achieved an average of 308,000 viewers per episode for its first series – a 34% increase on Sky 1’s usual rating for that timeslot. It is produced by Shine TV, part of Endemol Shine Group.

Historic changing of the guard
FOR 100 WEEKS, once a week, the men of the Sentries and Corps of Drums of Barbados have been wowing audiences with their re-enactment of the changing of the guard.
The ceremony takes place in front of the Main Guard of the historic Garrison and involves an impressive drum routine complete with a segment featuring the striking of each other’s drumsticks.
The 100th guard change – a replica of the hourly ceremony which took place in the 19th century – was attended by Minister of Tourism Richard Sealy, as well as Chinese Ambassador Xu Hong; Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Culture Ruth Blackman; Barbados Defence Force Chief of Staff Colonel Alvin Quintyne; and other officials.
The event also drew summer campers as well as tourists and locals.
The main focus of the event was the unveiling of the official corps logo which features a .303 rifle, a treble clef and the Clock Tower.

Bryan Gil describes 19-year-old Tottenham forward Alejo Veliz as a ‘tank’
While Tottenham Hotspur’s roster boasts several players currently away on international duty, a number of players stay back at Hotspur Way to ensure swift returns from injury layoffs.
One such player is Bryan Gil. The young Spaniard has been recuperating from a nagging groin injury that necessitated surgical intervention. This injury setback kept him sidelined at the start of the season, but his determination to make a swift recovery has been commendable.
In a similar vein, Spurs’ summer acquisition, Alejo Veliz, has been hard at work on the training grounds at Hotspur Way, aiming to make a lasting impression on manager Ange Postecoglou. Veliz and Gil were in the gym together, as Gil posted a picture on Instagram, describing the former as a ‘tank’.
Bryan Gil describes 19-year-old Tottenham forward Alejo Veliz as a ‘tank’.
Alasdair Gold, a trusted source for all things Spurs, via the Gold and Guest Podcast has reported on Veliz’s involvement with the first team, shedding light on his commitment to his development at the club.
The teenager scored 19 goals and secured two assists in 63 appearances for CA Rosario Central before making the move to London.
The emergence of this budding friendship between Bryan Gil and Alejo Veliz at Hotspur Way is a heartening sight for Tottenham fans. Both players are brimming with talent and potential, and their dedication to their respective recoveries and development is evident.
Spurs starlet Alejo Veliz.
As they continue to work tirelessly behind the scenes, Spurs supporters can eagerly anticipate the day when these two promising talents grace the pitch together, combining their skills to propel Tottenham to success.

FAYETTEVILLE-The University of Arkansas softball team (13-26, 0-12) travels to Knoxville, Tenn., to meet No. 4 Tennessee (39-5, 9-2) in a Southeastern Conference contest, Saturday, April 2, for a noon doubleheader. The series concludes Sunday, April 3 at noon.
Arkansas softball head coach Jamie Pinkerton said he expects a challenge from Tennessee especially in the circle as sophomore pitcher Monica Abbott brings a 0.26 ERA into the series.
“The have one of the best pitchers (Abbott) in the country,” Pinkerton said. “Offensive, we have to figure out a way to put the ball in play. Hopefully, we’ll have a couple of good outings like the Border War. Maybe we’ll get some quality starts and scratch out a run or two and steal one or two.”
The Lady Razorbacks split the 2005 edition of the Border War with a 7-2 victory over Tulsa, while falling to Oklahoma State 4-3.
Sophomore outfielder Rachel LeMaster continues to lead the Lady’Backs with a team-high .398 batting average and 49 hits. The Border War also marked sophomore pitcher Sarah Topham’s return to the circle as she threw one inning in relief in the Tulsa win.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Prosecutors have dropped felony rioting charges against five more people who were arrested after protesters broke windows and torched a limousine in Washington on Inauguration Day. That brings the total number of dropped cases to nine.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia made the announcement in a statement Friday. The office did not say why the cases were dismissed but said prosecutors are working with police to review evidence related to the Jan. 20 arrests.
The office had previously dismissed charges against four journalists who were arrested while chronicling the actions of a group of self-described anarchists. Police originally arrested 230 people and charged them with felony rioting, which is punishable by up to 10 years in prison.

The budget dilemma
Perth 15th September 2010
I want to talk a bit more about budgets as it is a recurring major issue in practically all our projects. Clients always want to spent less and get more, who doesn’t? My specific issue today is that we tend to always design in a “grand” way as we generally don’t get to know the clients budget until we actually come up with the costs of the design. Most of them don’t really have one and when it comes to the stage of financial decisions they look at the bottom line and not necessarily at the value for money aspect. From my experience this is mostly the result of ignorance by quantity surveyors and electrical engineers who have no clue how to cost lighting.
Today again I was confronted with a project in which the budget came out way over the figure that we had anticipated as a realistic amount the client would accept. So it is back to the drawing board to see how we can manage the costs. I want to state that managing the costs does not mean sacrificing the quality, but more at resizing and redesigning the lighting effects. It is often a fine line to balance. Quality in my opinion can be divided in class A, B and C, where A is the luxury top quality brand, B is the basic durable quality brand and C is the dodgy (not acceptable) type of quality brand. So one of our options is “downsizing” where we may have to decide to switch some light fittings from type A to B or from a Rolls Royce to a Toyota to use a metaphor. This can be done in relation to the importance of areas. Though we would love to have a Rolls Royce we may not need it everywhere…
Then there is a good relook at the lighting effects. Do we have the right balance of light, have we overdone it? Lighting design is as much about what to light as about what NOT to light. Containing our urge to put lights everywhere is generally our biggest challenge! I had a big hard look again at some of the big ticket cost items and decided that there were some alternative and more cost effective ways. Sometimes you need to go all the way before going back to find the best solution!

If you prefer West Maui as a location for your residence, we’re not surprised. The tranquil ocean, powdery beaches, brilliant sunsets, majestic views of the West Maui Mountains, and the comfortably cool trades that compliment the warm sun are just a few of the natural features that make this part of the island a wonderful place to live.
West Maui boasts a myriad of fun boutiques, shops, art galleries family restaurants, fine restaurants, necessities and more. The picturesque Lahaina Harbor gets a good amount of use from sailboats, including whale watching, swimming, snorkeling, scuba and sight-seeing charters.
It’s a breathtaking place with plenty of things to do, and right now, finding reasonably priced real estate is like shooting fish in a barrel. We’d like to draw your attention to the lovely Puamana, located near the heart of Lahaina right on the beach.
Puamana originally consisted of a colony of pleasant homes on what was once part of a Maui sugar plantation, so there is a great deal of history and culture there. Now Puamana consists of low rise, low-density town homes on twenty-eight acres of manicured lawns and tropical gardens right on the Pacific Ocean.
The Puamana clubhouse was built in the 1920s and was the manager’s home during the plantation days. Now it is an important center of activity within the Puamana community. You will also find a library, a card room, a sauna, three swimming pools, tennis courts and there are lovely fountains and elegant archways outside. You will also find championship golf courses nearby.

Title: Orchid Blue
Summary: Deans thoughts on the eyes of angels.
Setting: Takes place during episode 4.20 Raptures
A/N: the inspiration for this was the song Orchids by Maria Taylor and a lovely picture I found on Google called Orchid Blue.
Dean was unsettled by the fact that the body that Castiel had once been inside was now only occupying some guy named Jimmy. At first glance Dean would think it was Cas in there but then the guy would talk and his voice was all wrong, too high, to flat, to human. Then there was the way Jimmy carried himself, less stiffly, less restrained power and intimidating strength. But it was in his eyes that there was the most difference. Dean thought that if he looked at any other vessel that Castiel resided in, he would be able to tell that it was him.
Without Castiel residing within him Jimmy's eyes were brown. It seemed odd to see what Dean thought of as Cas with brown eyes; now that he thought of it all angels had those same deep Dark blue eyes. Each were slightly different as each angel was unique, the few Dean had seen, Uriel with blue eyes like a stormy sky, Zachariah with his blue eyes so dark they were almost black. Castiel's eyes were like a flower dean had seen once before in a florist during a hunt.
The single flower had been sitting there amongst others of it's kind but it's shade was the perfect correlation to Castiel's eyes. Looking at the display Dean had seen the name Orchid and some fancy Latin name he didn't recall.
Thinking of that flower now, while Jimmy slept in the bed across from his Dean was getting unsettled again. The thought that he might not get to see those deep blue orchid eyes again made his chest hurt. Dean placed his hand there and squirmed a little. The feeling was too similar to the feeling he felt when Sammy had died, when Dad had died; it was too close to the grief of loosing someone he loved. Shaking his head violently to disperse the disturbing thought Dean closed his eyes, determined to fall asleep.


Iowa Lawmakers Reach Deal: AEA Restructuring, Teacher Pay Increase, and School Funding Levels in House File 2612
Governor Reynolds’ Education Agenda Advances: AEA Funding Redistribution and Teacher Salary Boost in Focus
Republican lawmakers in Iowa have finalized a deal aimed at restructuring funding for Iowa’s Area Education Agencies (AEAs), increasing teacher pay, and establishing school funding levels for the upcoming year. The bill, House File 2612, has been sent to Governor Kim Reynolds after months of negotiations among the House, Senate, and governor’s office. The agreement maintains 90% of current state funding for AEAs, with school districts gaining control over the remaining 10%, while also allowing districts to manage state money for media and general education services previously handled by AEAs. Under the legislation, beginning teachers’ minimum pay will rise to $50,000 per year, up from $33,500, with additional state funds allocated to increase salaries for experienced teachers and non-salaried school staff. Despite Republican support, opposition from Democrats, AEAs, and education groups persists, citing concerns about funding redirection impacting services and staff. The bill’s passage in the Senate on a 30-18 vote, with some Republican dissent, underscores the bipartisan divide over the overhaul of AEAs and teacher pay.
Political Battle Over AEA Bill: Republicans, Democrats Clash Over Teacher Pay and Education Priorities
The bill’s implications extend beyond funding changes, triggering political debate and campaign attacks. Republicans criticize Democrats for voting against teacher pay increases, while Democrats accuse Republicans of prioritizing political agendas over education needs. The legislation’s passage is expected to influence upcoming legislative races, with both parties positioning themselves to capitalize on the issue in the fall elections. Amidst the political maneuvering, educators and stakeholders express uncertainty and concern about the bill’s impact on AEA services and staffing levels, emphasizing the need for ongoing dialogue and adaptation in Iowa’s education landscape.

Curiosity Reigns at P.I.E.S.
We have officially entered the time of the school year most reflective of Spring and all of the energy it brings. Our 4th and 5th grade students participated in the Peaks Island Library Book Club discussion of "The Boy on the Wooden Box", a Holocaust Memoir by Leon Leyson. The students gave a brief yet thorough presentation of their process for digesting literature in the class room and then lead the community discussion of the book. The dialogue was somber, rich and well informed. Thank you to the Friends of the Peaks Island Library for hosting this event and for providing the forum for this rich opportunity for our community.
The 2nd and 3rd Grade students are riding high on the great success of the Landmark Expedition Bike Tour Map! This coming week our students will be recognized by the Superintendent Emmanuel Caulk for their work at the upcoming School Board meeting which will be held at the Peaks Island School on Tuesday, May 17th at 7pm.
Additionally, the students will engage community members with specific expertise on our local Landmarks on guided tours throughout the remainder of the school year.
Ms. Ryan-Humphrey's K-1 class is ready to plant apple trees! With grant funds through Healthy Portland and 5-2-1-0 Let's Go! We will plant 6 trees on our play ground, 2 trees at the Peaks Island Workshop and are hoping to plant 2 trees for our community at the Community Garden. We will also undertake an island exploration of apple trees! We have noticed many very old trees and we'd like to know more about them. If you have some stories we'd love to hear them.
Look for our upcoming Community Lunch and Volunteer Appreciation Day! The date is June 10th and more details will soon follow.
We hope to see you in our school soon.
All the best,


Q. Is it true that centrifugal pumps should be built with ball bearings that have greater than normal internal clearance?
A. It depends on the pump type and the conditions of service for the pump.
Bearing life depends on the operating speed and load, or force, on the bearings and factors such as good lubrication and minimum contamination from external solids or acids. The load on the bearing balls is usually a combination of the external force on the shaft and the internal force produced by the fit or clearance between the inner and outer raceways.
Ball bearings are built with a small clearance between the balls and the raceway. For example, a ball bearing with inside diameter of 50-mm has a normal clearance between the ball and raceway of between 8-μm and 28-μm (micrometers). When mounted on a shaft, an interference fit between the shaft and bearing inside diameter is usually used. This causes the bearing inner raceway to expand, which reduces or eliminates the original ball clearance. The elimination of the ball clearance eliminates any looseness or radial movement of the pump shaft, which maintains the close alignment good for proper operation of the pump seal.
This arrangement works well unless the pump is operating on high temperature liquids, like 750-deg F. At such temperatures, the shaft and inner race of the bearing expand further, putting an additional load on the bearing balls. At some point the additional load on the bearing will significantly reduce its life.
When this happens, a bearing with greater than normal internal clearance is appropriately used to compensate for the high temperature expansion of the shaft and bearing inner raceway. All bearing manufacturers produce a bearing with greater than normal clearance, which is identified as a C3 fit bearing. The same 50-mm bearing will then have an internal clearance of 23-μm to 43-μm, which will be reduced as the shaft and bearing expand.
Bearings with additional internal clearance can also be obtained. These are designated as C4 and C5 bearings. However, excessive internal clearance in the bearing could allow excessive radial movement at the shaft seal, reducing seal life and causing leakage.
Some pump users specify C3 fit as standard, but this allows for some radial movement of the shaft at ambient temperatures and may lead to some shaft seal problems.
Follow the OEM's recommendation regarding replacement bearings and internal clearances.
Q. I read that pumps with high suction energy level are more susceptible to cavitation damage than low suction energy level. Is this true and how is high suction energy defined?
A. Yes, pumps with high suction energy level are generally more likely to suffer from cavitation damage. However, there are many factors that contribute to this and no precise definition has been established. These factors typically include:
- The peripheral velocity at the outside diameter of the impeller eye. Values above approximately 120-ft/sec are considered high suction energy.
- The suction speed S of the pump. S = nQ2/(NPSH)0.75 where n = rpm, Q = gpm and NPSH = feet. Values above about 12,000 are considered high energy.
- The specific gravity of the liquid pumped. The higher the level, the higher the suction energy.
- Thermodynamic properties of the liquid. Cold water is one of the highest energy liquids, followed by high temperature water and hydrocarbons.
- The geometry of the pump inlet. Side suction pumps are considered higher suction energy than end suction.
- The overlap of the impeller vanes. Impellers with two or three vanes have higher suction energy than four or more vanes.
- The incidence angle between the inlet impeller vanes and the approaching liquid. The greater the angle, the greater the turbulence and suction energy level. This value may have to be obtained from the pump manufacturer.
- The geometry of the inlet piping to the pump. Piping turns and pipe size changes add to the suction energy of the pump.
- Operation away from the best efficiency point (BEP) of the pump. At reduced rate of flow, the pump may operate in its suction recirculation region, which considerably increases suction energy.
This is a complex situation and a single equation or relationship has not been developed which will accurately tie all of these factors together. Manufacturers can often provide installation lists of pumps that are operating successfully.
Q. What is the purpose of putting vacuum valves or vacuum breakers in pump discharge piping? How does this affect pump performance in a pump handling ambient temperature water?
A. The primary purpose for vacuum breakers is to minimize the risk of damage from water hammer. This is especially true when pumps are installed above an open source and discharging through pipe to a higher level. When the pump is stopped, the water in the discharge pipe may drain back to the source. Even with a check valve in the discharge pipe, the check may leak and the water in the pipe can slowly drain out.

Last week, I joined Esther from e*star LA and Valerie of Red Vines for Breakfast for a hosted sneak preview of The Happiest Hour. The former Paperfish space has been warmed up from its mod, “Space Odyssey” interior with splashes of Mäni’s signature colors. The orange wall remains in the lounge area, where we sampled from the Happiest Hour menu.
The cocktails are a mix of classics and Mäni’s signatures, all made with a healthy, organic spin. From the Happiest Hour menu I had a very good Ward Eight, as well as two non-happy hour cocktails (priced at $10-12): the McCleery Collins (scotch, ginger and citrus) and the Pisco Maleado (BarSol Pisco, lemon, lime, agave nectar, egg white, cucumber and mint). The Pisco Maleado in particular was excellent. While salads may not be the first thing you think of at happy hour, their fresh ingredients paired well with the various cocktails we tried. The Moroccan Lamb was the best of the sliders, while the tofu skewers were surprisingly flavorful.
Mäni’s took a risk when it moved from its home of two decades and into its prestigious new zip code. But longtime patrons will enjoy the expanded offerings, while the new neighbors are sure to welcome a high end happy hour that’s easy on the wallet.

This dreamy no bake Orange Dream Cast Iron Icebox pie has got to be in the top 5 of my all time favorite desserts along with my Key Lime Cast Iron Icebox pie. This orange pie is cold comfort food for your summer taste buds; it’s love in every bite!
A slice of this creamy, crunchy, nutty, citrusy sweet frozen treat will make you feel all is right in the world. I guaranty this Orange Dream Icebox pie will be the topic of conversation for years to come!
The original recipe came from my favorite magazine “Southern Cast Iron” and my most cherished issue “Chill” May/June 2018. This issue is a perfect summertime guide to unforgettable hot weather eats for holidays, weekend barbecues, and everyday summer cooking.
Orange Cream in any form is perfect for all summer holidays especially the NO BAKE form!
Better than sex comes to mind when trying to come up with an accurate description of the joy this treat creates. I swear to everything that is wholly, you and everyone else who has the pleasure of indulging with you will never forget this one!?
Orange Zest Crust could be the best part!
Start by making this yummy crust:
3 cups of crushed graham crackers equals about 3 sleeves of whole crackers.
Add all the remaining crust ingredients to the food processor and pulse until all incorporated.
Note: Add more zest if you like your orange flavor strong!
Cream Cream Pie Filling-this is my other favorite part?
While the crust is chill’in, soften the gelatin in the orange juice, heat up for about 20 seconds or until dissolved.
Add all the rest of the filling ingredients in a large mixing bowl including the cooled gelatin.
Whip on high speed until the cream mixture is thick, dreamy and yummy.
Putting it all together.
Scoop the dream into the cold pie crust and sprinkle with remaining orange zest.
Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
Note: Cast iron skillets can be cumbersome to freeze. I found the perfect spot for this step.
Finishing the dream!
I decided not to add the roasted nuts while these froze. I was afraid the nuts would turn out soft when they thawed. So I topped the pie with the roasted nuts, orange slices and curled orange peel before serving.
It’s rare in my family (we have a bunch of great cooks) to have one dish that every single person remembers with a smile and a lick of the lips. This is one of those dishes and it needs to be shared and shared and shared. In my opinion it could be the answer to world peace…I kid you not!
Get busy spreading the love?‼
Note: I’ve made this with white chocolate chips in the filling as well…it turned out great!

Using a food processor, crush graham crackers into crumbs. Add sugar, nuts, zest and process until incorporated and nuts are chopped. Slowly add butter until all ingredients are moist.

Orange Dream Filling

Roast nuts in single layer on cookie sheet for about 20 mins at 300oNote: Shake nuts half way through cooking time
In a large bowl beat whipping cream, confectioner's sugar, sour cream, 1 tbsp zest and extract on with with a mixer until fluffy. Drizzle gelatin mixture over top of cream, beat until combined.

Courtney Barnett has released "City Looks Pretty", the third single from her highly anticipated album 'Tell Me How You Really Feel'.
Following on from the focussed fury of "Nameless, Faceless" and the gorgeously contemplative "Need a Little Time", the new single takes Barnett in an entirely different direction. "City Looks Pretty" has Barnett experimenting with new song structures while delivering one of her most exhilarating guitar performances to date. It's metronomic drive and squealing lead guitar provide the remarkable sonic foundation from which Barnett sings a melodic exploration of friendship, place and home – “friends treat you like a stranger”, Barnett sings, “And strangers treat you like their best friend”.

Trailer Brake Breakaway Wiring Diagram – Folks understand that trailer is a car comprised of very complicated mechanisms. This car is designed not just to travel 1 place to another but also to carry heavy loads. This report will be talking trailer brake breakaway wiring diagram. Which are the advantages of knowing such knowledge? You’ll be surprised to know it.
First, knowing the diagram of wires for trailer will be useful during troubleshooting. When issues happen with the trailer, driver would want to learn where the problem spot can be located. It helps immediately in fixing errors. Secondly, knowing the diagram of cables for trailer is terrific for people who want to try constructing for themselves.
Learning Trailer Wiring Diagram Better
Generally, there are 3 types of diagrams that people may have a look at when aiming to build wires for trailers. Each cable has different function and design so it’s essential for driver to coincide with the needs before deciding on one.
- 7-Pin Connector
This Trailer Brake Breakaway Wiring Diagram model is more acceptable for sophisticated trailers and RVs. It may transfer electricity better compared to the connector is recommended for higher-level electric in the car. Here is the diagram for 7-pin connector.
- White Pin to your floor.
- Brown Pin for side markers, tail lamps, and running lights.
- Yellow Pin for left brake light and left turn mark.
- Green Pin Yellow Pin for appropriate brake light and right turn markers.
- Blue Pin for electric brakes.
- Red 12 volt auxiliary power.
- Purple for backup lighting.
- 5-Pin Connector
This 5-pin trailer wiring diagram is terrific for trailer which has large capacity. But, it does not have as sophisticated and electric consuming features that RV and other costly trailers might have. Below is the configuration for 5-pin connector for superior comprehension.
- White cables for ground power.
- Brown cables for running lights, tail lamps, and negative markers.
- Yellow cables for abandoned brake signal and left turn too.
- Green cables for proper brake signal and right twist too.
- Blue cables for electric brakes so the car can operate much better.
- 4-Pin Connector
There is a really fundamental Trailer Brake Breakaway Wiring Diagram. It is the 4-pin connector. This type of connector is perfect for customer trailers. It should not be carrying significant loads throughout the trip. In addition to being light, it’s advised that the connector does not have some power-draining attachment. The fundamental diagram for this connector is quite like above types.
- White wires for any power that occurs on the lighting.
- Brown cables for any running lights, back lights, and peripheral markers.
- Yellow cables for virtually any left brake signal and left sign turn.
- Green wires for any correct brake signal and right signal turn.
Driver should note several things linked to the diagram, however. These items will protect against motorist from encountering any electric problem during usage. It’s advised that the white cable must connect the floor to any white wire on top. Though this sounds tedious, it will conserve consumer from hassles in the future.
There’s another thing related to diagram however is especially about routing. An approach to wrap it about the trailer can be quite interesting. It’s because the cable will be able to distribute electricity to other trailer’s parts in equivalent way. Wires should be safeguarded by material that is strong and durable but doesn’t hinder its functioning.
Hopefully the post related to Trailer Brake Breakaway Wiring Diagram will be assisting motorist to design their own trailer cables better. If not it is still a terrific knowledge to get for when troubles happen to your precious car.

Both my parents love photography and I grew up around cameras. My parents took most of our childhood pictures on an Olympus XA rangefinder camera. I remember this camera was a precious item in our household. My dad bought it from one of his photographer friends in the early 1980's.
In the last few years my parents have moved on to digital photography and I am starting to inherit all the awesome film gear. Recently, my Mom gave me this Olympus and I have been shooting with it regularly. I feel guilty for letting my DSLR collect dust on my shelf.
My style of photography totally changes when I am taking pictures with a film camera. I can't do any test shots to quickly check my exposure or to see how light is falling on my subject. I have to think much more and it is really fun to go lo-fi once in a while.
This is a picture of Grand River (Lansing, MI) about a block away from my apartment.
This is Eric at an incredible Jamaican restaurant in Lansing. They blast Jamaican music all day.
I had to open the back of the camera in a (not so dark) room. This was an unexpected result. The light leak is perfectly over the manhole.

Reason for popularity:
