Gili Islands was very famous for their beautiful scenery and atmosphere, in adition they also well known as the beauty of underwater life which stored the natural view of the coral and any kind of colourfull fish that was so amazing.
As one of Indonesia’s top areas for scuba diving and snorkelling, with a reputation for being the ‘turtle capital of the world’, with year round water temperatures about 28 degrees Celsius, the Gili islands have become popular for beginners and experienced divers alike. There are about 25 dive sitesaround the islands of Trawangan, Meno and Gili Air, with a variety of topography (slopes, walls, ridges and canyons) and an enormous amount of diverse marine life. This includes black – and white tip reef sharks, lots of turtles (hawksbill and olive ridley), lionfish, scorpion fish, cuttle fish and octopus, moray eels, sea snakes, different types of rays (blue – spotted, eagle and, from December to March, manta rays) not to mention schools of bump – head parrot fish every full moon and the occasional whale shark plus countless varieties of hard and soft corals.

South Sea Nomads, is the Gili islands only party boat, it operates Mon, Wed and Fri and more often in high season. Starts at 3PM and goes around the 3 Gili islands. They stop off at Gili Air for a swim and snorkel before watching the sunset over the water toward Bali. A yummy Thai dinner is is served on the way back to Gili Trawangan where the party continues on board. South Sea Nomads also offer budget overnight camping, diving and surf boat trips; Sekotong trip is 2 nights, 3 days island hopping the 14 island off the South West peninsula of Lombok. This trip is great for divers, experienced surfers who want to surf Desert Point and people who just want to island hop and snorkel. Their Moyo and Satonda trip is 5 nights and 6 days and gets off the beaten trail away from other tourists. Over the 6 days they visit waterfalls, a sunken volcano and crater lake, caves, deserted beaches and islands, beautiful reefs and a WW2 wreck. South Sea Nomads are located at both Gili Hostel and Manta Dive.
There are a few companies based on Gili Trawangan that offer boat trips to the surrounding islands of Lombok, Sumbawa and to Komodo.
Blue Water Cruises are based just north of the harbour and run trips around the 3 Gilis, to Lombok and Komodo.
South Sea Nomads South Sea Nomads have 2 bases on Gili T, one at Gili Hostel and another at Manta Dive. They offer private half day, full day and sunset charters for up to 30 people, group Party Boats , 2 night trips to Sekotong and Desert Point for island hopping and surfing Lomboks most famous break Desert Point. They also run a 6 night trip to Moyo and Satonda where they visit waterfalls, a sunken volcano, caves, a crater lake, deserted beaches and uninhabited islands, stunning reefs and a WW2 wreck, a 5 night island hopping trip to Sumbawa and a Reef Check expedition twice per year. South Sea Nomads also run UV night diving on Gili Trawangan, Flyboardin and the Reef Check Training facility based at Manta Dive.
Perama are based near the art market on the main beach road. They offer trips all around Indonesia as well as trips from Bali to the Gilis and Komodo.
There are over a dozen ATMs on the island, with most located on the Eastern side on the island close to the jetty. Most ATMs are run by Indonesian banks, but there are also two Australian Commonwealth Bank ATMs. The majority of ATMs provide Rp 50,000 notes and have a maximul withdrawal up to Rp 1,500,000; those dispensing Rp 100,000 notes (you will see a sticker on the machine) often have limit of Rp 2,000,000 or even Rp 3,000,000 (CIMB Niaga on the main beachwalk, note – only one of the terminals there dispenses 100,000’s). Commonwealth Bank ATMs are also known for their large limits (3-4 million), however they now charge an additional Rp 20,000 fee from most foreign cards (you’ll see a notification with an option to cancel the transaction), notably excluding Visa Europe. The exchange rates offered on the island are generally poorer than on Bali or Lombok, but not that much (in the tourists areas of Bali you may easily get even lower rate if not choosing the exchange point wisely). Do not believe the touts at Bangsal that there are no ATMs or money changers. They will try to convince you to change money with them and charge you up to 10% commission for it. Read more
Gili Trawangan has a fast right hander which can really pump with the right conditions. The best waves are at high tide, and the underlying reef can be sharp so booties can come in handy. The surf break is off the south coast – just follow the locals who will be out and jogging with their boards whenever the surf is decent. You will find no shortage of locals eady, willing and able to rent you board. There are a few breaks off Gili Air and Gili Meno, but they are more difficult to reach and smaller. The best season is the January-June wet season, with swells from 1-2 m. Daily conditions can be checked out at Magic Seaweed Read more
There are regular party nights on Gili Trawangan – the various bars take it in turn to host the late night gig (up to 4AM), to ensure that everyone gets together in one place rather than being spread around. The island is small and it is easy to find everything; just ask around for where the party is going to be on any given night.
Nightlife is very laid back here, and somedays you might not notice any at all. This is very much the anti-Trawangan.
Gili Air usually has one party a week rotating at different bars during the peak season only. Locals and restaurant owners will usually mention them to you, and sometimes flyers are posted around. The party scene on Gili Air is much more low-key, and not nearly as rowdy as the wild all-nighters on Gili Trawangan
Trawangan has a huge range of eating options from simple local warungs up to fairly grand places serving inventive modern cuisine. Many of these are attached to hotels or dive shops, and are not independent restaurants as such.
Budget places are thinner on the ground that they used to be, but still not hard to find. If you really want to watch the pennies, do as the locals do and eat in the local warungs inside the village, or at the night food market near the beachwalk south of the jetty. These serve the usual range of Indonesian staples: fried rice, fried noodles and bakso (meatball soup); on the night market, you will also find seafood (marked up for tourists’ wallets, though), pancakes, snacks, desserts, and even beer. The push carts and few “warungs” on the main beachwalk are overpriced as much as twice compared to Bali or Indonesian cities (for example, selling sate ayam on the street for Rp 20,000 or nasi padang for Rp 22,000). Barbecued fish is excellent here and every evening many of the better restaurants fire up the charcoal. The deal is that you chose your fish – red and white snapper and trevally are especially good – and it is grilled on the spot. Be very careful with locally produced spirits, especially arak. It can contain methanol and has caused many cases of serious injury and even death (as recent as new year 2012/13) among tourists and locals alike. If you suspect that what you’ve been served is not what you ordered, take it back. Sticking to western owned and managed bars will reduce the risk. Read more
There are some lovely walks to be had on the island, although the perimeter coastal track is perhaps not as scenic as those on Gili Meno and Gili Air. A leisurely stroll all the way around will take 90-120 minutes, depending on just how leisurely you are. The hill in the south can be easily reached by taking one of the tracks that lead west or southwest from the back of the village. Dawn and dusk are the best times to climb up here. The sunset views back towards Bali are quite lovely, and in the mornings the sun rises over majestic Mount Rinjani on Lombok. On the top of the hill lie the remains of a World War II Japanese gun bunker. Read more
The easiest spot to find some productive snorkelling is off the main beach, north of the boat landing. Enter the water approximately in front of the Almarik hotel. If you start north of the beach (about where you can see seaweeds growing at low tide roughly level with Gili Meno’s northern extent), and go with the current back towards to the most crowded sunbathing area, you will likely need to kick only when you want to stop to look at something. The healthy corals are around the area where the wall drops off and the deeper water begins. Nearer the shore you will find only dead coral. Turtles can be seen often, and also the occasional trigger fish amongst the more common reef inhabitants. At low tide it is difficult to get in without reef shoes. Always watch out for potential waves that can push you into the coral that are just below water level. A better coral reef is off the northwest coast, but you have to be very keen to go through the hardship of getting out there. The only access to the reef involves walking over a substantial area of dead, sharp coral, and back again when you have finished. If you are a keen snorkeller the effort is worth it, and you are very likely to have the waters to yourself. Small, purple jellyfish are sometimes plentiful around the island, and they seem to love stinging snorkellers. The reaction is one of considerable irritation, but the stings cause no serious harm. Alternatively, you can take a snorkeling boat tour. Most trips take 4-5 hours with a lunch stop in Gili Air. The costs start at IDR 100,000 and come with mask, snorkel, vest, and fins. Read more

New mobility – with hydrogen into the future
Gas sensors, gas sensor modules and accessories
Mobility without emissions? Hydrogen vehicles are emission-free.
The fuel alternative is increasingly coming into focus when it comes to future-oriented energy sources. It must be assumed that there will be many alternative drive options in vehicles in the future. Hydrogen-powered fuel cells in mobile operation will be an important option in climate-friendly energy production. Hydrogen sensors that detect leaks in the tank, in the vehicle cabin and in the fuel cell are suitable for the safe operation of these fuel cells. These sensors must work reliably and sensitively. Even in small concentrations, the odorless and colorless gas H2 can have a major impact on both people and their environment. Early detection of gases in the ambient air is therefore essential. The field of application of our sensors is very extensive. The sensors are used in the automotive sector and e.g. installed directly in cars or commercial vehicles. But they are also used for gas detection in industry, where hydrogen is produced and stored. We provide you with high-quality gas sensors for various target gases and suitable accessories so that you can use the sensors optimally in your application. Our sensors are highly sensitive to gas concentrations, maintenance-free, durable and factory calibrated.
Rely on a safe and clean future with hydrogen products from ALDERS.
Gas sensors, gas sensor module and accessories: our product-range from FES Sensor Technology and Nissha FIS, Inc.
For gas sensors, for measuring hydrogen concentration in the ambient air, we rely on our premium partner FES Sensor Technology. As an expert in hydrogen sensor technology with many years of experience, FES offers innovative calibrated hydrogen sensors that are insensitive to siloxanes.
For the detection of other target gases (including methane, liquid gas and CO2 detection), we rely on innovative sensors from the world’s leading manufacturer NISSHA FIS, Inc. The high-quality sensors are characterized by excellent stability and high sensitivity.
For the optimal use of our sensors, ALDERS offers suitable modules and accessories as a supplement to our gas sensor portfolio. In addition to various installation elements and housings, test chambers and an evaluation kit are also available for measurements.

Nothing betrays the fickle, fleeting nature of cumulative days, weeks and months which constitute the year as clearly and evidently as the garden.
365 days, batched into weeks, bound into months and bundled into seasons with fleeting days and endless nights, one-day summers and eternal winters, constant wind and rainfall and occasionally those once in a lifetime hurricane, blizzard and heat-wave events the likes of which we’ve experienced these last 8 months, and we call it the year.
Here at monsterinthecorner we contend that there is no beginning to, and neither is there an end to the gardening year. There are those who say that the gardening year begins on Brigid’s Day (February 1st) or St. Patrick’s Day (March 17th). There are those who contest that the gardening year only begins once the last frost is passed, and another train of thought has the gardening year only truly begin once the spring equinox arrives. But, as stated earlier, we here would say there is neither definitive beginning nor end to the gardening year, and if it be necessary to constrain gardening reality within manageable metric parameters then perhaps we could at least contend that the gardening year begins with first light on January 1st and ends with the onset of darkness on December 31st.
There is no surety in the garden, but that is not to say that there is no reasonable expectancy within the garden. Gardeners and allotmenteers fastidiously prepare their beds and borders, sowing and potting schedules can be adhered to meticulously, and husbandry practices can be accomplished and precise, but there is still no certainty with time and the gardener’s use of time in the garden. In the garden there will always be wet and miserable days to contend with, just as there will be days of bright pleasant sunshine. There will be days of drifted snow with soil frozen to a depth of inches, just as there will be days or even weeks on end of drought with clay baked to the consistency of concrete. There will be hail, rain, sleet and snow; there will be sunshine and showers in equal measure just as there can be gentle breezes and gale force winds and – as the monster’s previous experience has shown -all of this occasionally in one and the same day.
We bundle days together; and days become weeks and months and morph into seasons, but the margins are always fluid. The year’s coldest days often fall beyond the start of spring (whenever that may be) just as the prolonged driest periods of any given year can occur during the darker days December and January, with the heaviest prolonged periods of rainfall sometimes occurring during the lazy, hazy, crazy days when unbroken sunshine is the expectation. There is no surety in the garden, but, there is potential, and this is what the gardener works with. Spring can be cool, cold even, with winter’s tale dragged all the way to late April. Summers can be interrupted with incessant springtime rains right through to autumnal Indian bonus days giving way to mild winters with first frost not arriving till early February, which in some circles as said earlier can be early spring.
There is no surety in the garden and the garden needs no surety. Gardeners however are a different matter; they progress in hopeful certainty: the hope that spring will be kind and arrive on time; the hope that summer will be long and the autumn harvest plentiful and the hope that winter will be short-lived and not cause too much damaged to the naked bushes and bare beds.
The gardening year progresses one day at a time: that is, twenty four hours a day at a rate of sixty minutes an hour. Gardeners always have a plan for the garden, whereas the garden (?), the garden just is. Where the gardener plans for tomorrow or next month or for the summer, the garden itself just is; the garden is always now. There is no yesterday or next week in the garden, and if truth be told there is no summer or winter either; there is always just now. There is constant growth just as there is constant decay. There is always life with death in the garden; there is as much death to be observed in a late spring garden as there is on a November allotment; for all of their timely narcissistic golden beauty every swath and clump of daffodils lays down and dies en masse in springtime, just as that from the vernal wasteland that is every winter’s perennial border green snouts push through the leaf-mould carpet unnoticed. In death each lifetime is expended, and no matter how long the bloom lasts or how brief the butterfly’s flight it all happens in a lifetime. Days pass, seasons are spent, years come and go. And the garden is.
We’ve had a good year on our allotment, a year like no other to date, but good for all that. We’ve jarred our jams and made our chutneys, and Mrs Dirtdigger has made some wonderful sauces and relishes from the glut of tomatoes we’ve had so far this year. We had six months of winter followed by 3 weeks of spring, then the longest driest sunniest summer in over seventy years which ended quite suddenly and unexpectedly with the instant transition to autumn in one twenty four hour period 10 days ago. The courgettes are finished early and we’ve had to take the pumpkins in as the vines were spent. The parsnips have recovered somewhat following a Webworm infestation and the winter turnips are beginning to bulge at last. The Florence fennel sown during early July has bulbed-up nicely and at the moment the king of greens on the plot is the moss curled parsley. Summer concludes with a faultless flawless flow into autumn and winter approaches at the rate of sixty minutes an hour.
The garden always betrays how it deals with things and when time is up, well then, time is up. It takes a lifetime to live and thus die, and it is only in the dying that the extent of any lifetime can be truly measured; and as a garden never really dies the gardener never gets the true measure of it. It takes a lifetime to die, but it can happen in an instant. The garden lives and dies at the same time and it does this at a rate of sixty minutes an hour, day in, day out, month after month, every season of the year, and even the most accomplished gardeners forget this from time to time. So although there will always be a gardening to-do-list for any given week of the year, and though there will always be some sowing and pruning and spraying and watering to do, perhaps the most pressing task for the gardener at any given time of the gardening year is to learn to garden at the garden’s pace…!

THE City of Joondalup has removed the western timber jetty at Ocean Reef Boat Harbour because of its poor condition and potential safety issues.
Mayor Albert Jacob said it would have cost the City about $1 million to restore the jetty, located against the sea wall, to a suitable condition.
“The ageing jetty posed a potential safety hazard to users and given the anticipated commencement of the Ocean Reef Marina development project and recent installation of several floating jetties within the harbour, the City decided to remove the jetty at the earliest opportunity,” he said.
Affected parties such as the Ocean Reef Sea Sports Club and Whitfords Volunteer Sea Rescue were notified of the work, which started earlier this month.
Works will continue over the next few weeks to remove the steel piles.
The City has salvaged the timber from the jetty for re-purposing works such as nature play equipment at local parks.

Research has demonstrated that a number of evidence-based programs can be effectively implemented in different community settings, such as schools, to target Hispanic youth and their families; however, successful implementation of such programs represents a challenge for practitioners. This article describes experiences and strategies associated with recruiting, training, and supervising school mental health professionals in the school-based implementation of an evidence-based, family-centered prevention program for Hispanic families. School mental health professionals were recruited and given intensive training, weekly supervision for adherence monitoring, and ongoing technical assistance, in addition to intervention manuals and materials. We emphasize how strategies based on the prevention program itself were used to recruit, engage, and train school mental health professionals to deliver a family-based evidence-based program, blending research and practice in a large public school system. Implications of lessons learned are discussed, as well as the specific strategies to overcome challenges when engaging and training community partners in delivering a manualized intervention with rigorous adherence to the program.

A factional Chairman of the All Progressive Congress in Enugu State, Okey Ogbodo, says that President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit on Jan. 24 will end party crisis in the state. Ogbodo said all warring factions of the party had put aside their grievances in a bid to put out a united front for the party in the coming election.
He said all party stakeholders had been having series of meeting in preparation to receive the president and win election in the state.
He said: “We are burying the hatchet and any form of faction because we don’t want individual differences to rob us of victory at the coming poll. However, that aside, everyone is being carried along regardless of faction. We had a meeting last week Saturday and just yesterday, we had another one at the campaign office of the President and his Vice. The essence of which is to prepare for the Buhari’s visit and gain an overwhelming vote in the state in the 2019 polls that is close.”
Ogbodo noted that the series of meeting had been one that was all embracing, inclusive and that had made the different parties get along and happy.
According to him, preparations to give the president a rousing and befitting welcome come Jan. 24 for re-election campaign is in top gear.
The factional chairman said that party members in rural and urban areas as well as lovers of Buhari outside of the party had been duly sensitized.
On the need to support the re-election bid of President Buhari, he said PMB was a friend of the Igbos who is keen on handing over power to them in 2023.
He said: “We, Igbos, yearning for full integration into mainstream politics cannot achieve this ambition outside of APC and without PMB’s support. APC is only a platform to attain national integration because it is a national platform and currently the biggest in Africa.”
Ogbodo said PMB’s visit would be a unifying factor for the party especially the warring factions so we can back a sole candidate to victory in the governance of the state.
He said: “All party leaders and PMB himself are aware of the current development among APC members in the state including the court judgment and cases.
“I believe they will have a plan to reconcile all factions without the feeling of being cheated.”

Trail Blazers trade PG Jerryd Bayless
The Portland Trail Blazers have found a trade to create some extra roster room, agreeing Saturday to deal guard Jerryd Bayless to the New Orleans Hornets for a conditional future first-round pick.
The Portland Oregonian reported that the 2011 first-round pick that the Blazers will receive from New Orleans is protected 1-to-7 in the 2011 draft and 1-to-8 in 2012, 2013 and 2014. The Blazers will thus take ownership of the pick in the June draft as long as it is No. 8 or lower.

Because we all loved Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 so much, we’re doing a series on Ego the Living Planet and starting off with “Thor #160-#161” by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby from all the way back in the 70s. Thor intervenes to stop a galaxy-crushing battle between Ego and Galactus and finds a new home for The Wanderers. This comic may be almost 50 years old, but surprisingly so much of it still holds up: kernels of great ideas can be found everywhere. We talk a bit about how the flippant concern for canon back in the Golden Age lead to creativity and gush for days over Jack Kirby’s flawless work.

We wrap up our sidekick series with an open discussion on the role and function of sidekicks in comics. Are they necessary anymore? Why were they around in the first place?

We take it back old school to 1966 to read the first appearance of one of the Marvel Universe’s biggest baddies by reading a trio of issues from Stan Lee & Jack Kirby’s original run on the Fantastic Four. “The Galactus Trilogy” spans issues 48 through 50. It’s fraught with great line art, poor coloring, and one hell of a dysfunctional team dynamic — not to mention the end of the world.

Wifi is available in versions of 802.11a/b/g/d. Pace adjustments with every variance. Antennas are easy to upgrade using RP-SMA right angle cables to upgraded antennas with antenna mounts.
Regular hubs are used by wiFi to produce wireless hotspots. Wireless signals are transmitted by the hubs to other suitable products. For many products, the number for connection is approximately 300-feet. You are able to place extra hubs to increase coverage over a bigger region, although WiFi array is originally restricted.
Satellite – This Really Is fairly an unusual wireless Web technology. Satellite internet vs. wi-fi & 4G is a frequent subject for discussion among lovers who wish to decide which is the greatest.

Yesterday evening, several portions of treacle tart and soggy biscuits went untouched in the refectory of Eton as a band of Great Britain's most hardened environmental campaigners skipped afternoon prep, donned Edwardian costume and headed to the Houses of Parliament to campaign against a proposed third runway at Heathrow.
And even though all their japery — hanging out with the Women's Institute, scaling St Stephens Gate and bellowing Latin declensions from the roof — has gone largely unnoticed in a tabloid world that has been saved by Gordon Brown and is marvelling at Fern Britten's new, tight belt, the Mill is definitely concerned about its carbon footprint and has vowed to stop its daily jetting of pampered footballers across the globe for largely fictional meetings with uninterested chairman.
Which is fortunate, because today's international-week rumours have a distinctly domestic feel. And by domestic, we mean as bland as grey meat and boiled potatoes, a pint of mild and a whinge about the state of the game today.
Take this: Everton will miss out on signing the most recent "next Zinedine Zidane" as the 18-year-old France U21 international Sofiane Feghouli has been seduced by Atlético Madrid. And this: Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso still fancies a bit of Juventus, even after they spurned him for a Danish alternative in the summer.
The 32-year-old Spanish striker free agent Diego Tristán is going to West Ham, but that's about as exotic as it gets in a world where Barry Hayles has returned to Leicester after Cheltenham opted not to extend his loan, Paul Gallagher is leaving Blackburn for good, possibly to his loan employers Plymouth, and goalkeeper Lee Camp is decamping from QPR.
Sunderland and West Brom are busy encouraging teenage sensation Fabian Delph to extend his young person's railcard so that he can hop on the slow train from Leeds. And Carson Yeung is making a fresh bid to buy Birmingham City — what this means for you know who's loan move remains to be seen.
You can put your own tantric gloss on to the news that Manchester City midfielder Michael Johnson is having yoga sessions to cure nagging pelvic problems. And if you want to know just how blunt are the Mill's nails this morning from its barrel scraping, this nugget almost made the cut: Tore André Flo is on the Norwegian version of Strictly Come Dancing.
And there. Even that's in there now.
Lend a helping hand to a flailing beast by filing your own transfer tittle-tattle in the comments box below. Or even just something about that guy with the betting-shop pen through his ear. Let him have it.


Kellie Ristau has never known a life without diabetes.
She was only 2 years old when she was diagnosed with the disease, which destroys the cells in the pancreas that are responsible for creating insulin.
Kristin Ristau, Kellie’s mother, described the diagnosis as devastating.
She was scared for her daughter’s right now and for her daughter’s future.
And she was scared for her family.
"We knew it would be life changing for us," Kristin said. "Diabetes is a 24-7 disease that has to be monitored very closely. We worked very hard to learn about the disease."
Looking back, Kristin said the diagnosis came with little surprise, considering the early symptoms Kellie was showing.
"We knew right away," Kristin said. "The disease is something that runs in my husband Mike’s family. In the back of our mind, we always knew that it could be something that impacted our family at some point."
That did not make it any more emotional.
The early stages found Kristin fighting an internal struggle in her mind.
It is not easy for a mother, who wants nothing more than to see smiles on her child’s face, but be forced to give painful shots of insulin that well eyes with tears.
"Obviously, I knew we had to do it, but I could never help but feel like I was being the bad guy," Kristin said.
Fifteen years later, none of those thoughts fill Kellie’s head.
Instead, Kellie confidently calls her mother her best friend.
"I don’t think there is any high-schooler who is closer to their mom than I am with mine," she said. "She is my best friend. We do everything together."
The special friendship between mother and daughter likely would have grown innately, but in many ways, it has been diabetes that has strengthened the bond.
As Kellie has pursued multiple athletic and extracurricular endeavors throughout her youth and high school days, Kristin has been on the lookout.
First and foremost as a supportive mom, but always with the hawk eyes of a nurse making sure her daughter was not displaying any signs or symptoms of her blood sugar dropping.
And Kellie is about as active as someone can be.
She is enthusiastic about life and refuses to let diabetes define what she can and cannot do.
She plays soccer (defender) and softball (shortstop), runs track and field (sprints and relays) and is also a member of the dance line and ski club.
"Kellie has completed quite the accomplishment in her ability to find success in such a demanding sport given her disease," Crestwood girls soccer coach Domenica McClintock said. "Her story should serve as an inspiration to others, while also showing that you can do gain great things if driven and managed properly."
Ristau is also a member of the marching band, concert band, jazz band, NHS, student council, French club, is a class officer (historian) and a member of the pre-professional medical academy.
All while carrying a grade-point average of 4.0.
For some, simply reading that list could place you in a state of exhaustion. Ristau is not like most, though. Her bundle of energy and endlessly stretching smile are enough to prove that.
Hard days? Sure, they exist for Kellie just like they do for everybody else. She is able to admit that, but she dismisses the spirals and gets ahead of it all to focus on the next challenge waiting for her.
Her best friend notices and finds inspiration in it all.
"I don’t think I could ever do what she does," her mother Kristin said. "I could not be more proud of her, and I cannot wait to see what her future holds. She is just a sweet kid and has the best attitude ever."
Her perspective is special too.
"With diabetes, everything just takes an extra step and extra effort," Kellie said. "My attitude has always been that if I work hard, diabetes won’t stop me."


On the September 7th agenda for Conshohocken’s Borough Council is a discussion of a Main Street Overlay Task Force. This has been discussed over the past few months and a community brain-storming session was held in May.
Any overlay would amend the borough’s zoning code to allow for new or expanded uses (business types), type of development, etc., along Fayette Street. If a task force is established it would explore and make a recommendation to the borough council on issues such as what blocks should be included in any overlay and what uses should be permitted (among many others).
The meeting is scheduled for September 7th at 7:00 p.m. at 400 Fayette Street in Conshohocken.

Child vaccination has better results if it is carried out in the schools themselves. This is demonstrated by the figures of the flu vaccination campaign which has just closed the Murcian Ministry of Health, this being the first year that children are included in flu vaccination.
In this first experience, Salud had set the target of reaching 50% coverage in child vaccination against influenza, the regional balance having remained somewhat below that goal, at 45%. However, the figures have been very different in those places where vaccination has been carried out in schools and not in health centers or clinics. “In schools, coverage has risen a lot and we have reached 60% of minors vaccinated,” explains the deputy director of Public Health, Jaime Pérez, to La Opinión, who believes that this is a way of bringing vaccines closer to the population.
The Departments of Health and Education of the Region of Murcia have been collaborating for decades to make vaccination more accessible with different campaigns in educational centers and on this occasion the flu vaccine has been introduced for the first time.
This 2022-2023 school year, a pilot flu immunization program with the new intranasal vaccine in children of 1st and 2nd grade of Early Childhood Education in 24 schools, and the vaccine against the human papilloma virus (HPV) has been introduced in male pre-adolescents who turn 11 (in girls it has been done since 2008).
Distinction from the EU to the Vaccine Program
The School Vaccination Program of the Region of Murcia has been recognized by the European Digital and Health Agency (HaDEA) as one of the most promising practices of the ‘Overcoming obstacles to vaccination’ project. Thus, the European Union delivered this recognition yesterday at a meeting organized at the Ministry of Health, taking advantage of the visit of some thirty technicians from different countries who are in the Region to learn about the implementation of the program and thus be able to launch it in the health systems in their respective territories.
The coverage of the HPV vaccine in the Region of Murcia it reaches almost 96% and it is close to 5 percent above the national average in first doses; the difference in second doses is even greater, being close to 10 percentage points above the mean.
Similar is the coverage in the first dose of immunization against meningococcus, another of the vaccines administered in schools this year. Thus, it reaches 95 percent, 4.5 points above the national average.
The figures were released yesterday by the Ministry during the delivery of the European recognition of ‘good practices’ to the School Vaccination Program.
The acting counselor, Juan José Pedreño, stressed that “bringing vaccination to school guarantees, in addition to more accessibility, more equality and better vaccination rates”, and highlighted “the enormous involvement of professionals from health centers and the teachers and directors of the centers to achieve the objectives, to which we are very grateful.
Pedreño insisted that “it is a fact that convenience in the administration improves access to vaccines and decreases the reluctance of the population and the school vaccination program in the Region of Murcia has played a very important role.”
Among all the proposals presented by the different countries of the European Union before the European Digital and Health Agency, ten projects were selected, including two of the three presented by the Region of Murcia, which were the only Spanish programs. Of those ten selected, there were five finalists among which the regional School Vaccination Program was recognized, which was also the most voted.

In this concise, beautifully illustrated book, the authors introduce the reader to the basic science of medical bacteriology and relate this to clinical practice. By integrating the text with over 270 full-colour diagrams and selected photomicrographs, the book explains the essentials of bacterial infection, and it also provides the basis for logical diagnostic and management strategies, including the use of antibiotics.
Following introductory chapters on the nature, structure and function of bacteria, diagnostic methods and antibiotic use, the principles are then applied to each organ system. Here relevant aspects of epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment and public health are covered. There are chapters on infection is a modern society, including the immuncompromised patient, and infection control in the hospital and community.
In the context of new problem-based curricula, this book will be welcomed especially by medical students, trainee physicians and microbiologists, laboratory biomedical scientists and nurses working in infection control.

An Automatic Critical Care Urine Meter
AbstractNowadays patients admitted to critical care units have most of their physiological parameters measured automatically by sophisticated commercial monitoring devices. More often than not, these devices supervise whether the values of the parameters they measure lie within a pre-established range, and issue warning of deviations from this range by triggering alarms. The automation of measuring and supervising tasks not only discharges the healthcare staff of a considerable workload but also avoids human errors in these repetitive and monotonous tasks. Arguably, the most relevant physiological parameter that is still measured and supervised manually by critical care unit staff is urine output (UO). In this paper we present a patent-pending device that provides continuous and accurate measurements of patient’s UO. The device uses capacitive sensors to take continuous measurements of the height of the column of liquid accumulated in two chambers that make up a plastic container. The first chamber, where the urine inputs, has a small volume. Once it has been filled it overflows into a second bigger chamber. The first chamber provides accurate UO measures of patients whose UO has to be closely supervised, while the second one avoids the need for frequent interventions by the nursing staff to empty the container.

In the past we have seen several videos online where people have built miniature versions of cars, SUVs and even bikes. For those who feel that, it is now too common, here we have a video that shows a scaled down version of an Army tank that is parked inside a residence. Unlike other mini cars and bikes that we have featured on our website in the past, this is different. How? This is actually a army tank made from cement and it is actually made around a water well.

The video has been shared by DIAL Kerala on their Facebook page. The mini army tank is built somewhere in Kerala. In this video, the creator of this mini army tank explains how they built this whole thing why did they build it. The work was actually done by Santhosh and his team. The owner of the property where the tank is built had approached them with the concept of an army tank inside the compound of their newly built house. The owner of this house is a soldier in the Indian Army and that is why he wanted the tank built.
If you look at the tank for the first time, it looks like an exact army tank only smaller. That is because, they took several pictures and even took measurement of tanks before starting the work. The whole tank has been built using bricks and cements. There are no metal panels or sheets used to achieve the desired look. They referred several images of the tank and they even went to Sainik school in Thiruvananthapuram to take the measurements of a decommissioned tank that is now put on display. An actual tank is extremely huge and if they were to built a tank of the same size, then it would take up a lot of space. So they decided to do some math and built a smaller version of the same tank.
They took care of the proportions while building this tank as it would look odd, if any one of the part was looking large or small. The track of the army tank looks like metal but, Santhosh mentions that it is all built using cement. He mentions that several artists had worked to finish this project and as mentioned above, this is actually a water well. By looking at it, no one can actually guess that it is built around a well. The top portion of the tank from where usually people get is where the well is located. This portion is left open but, it is not visible from the front. There is canon placed in the front which is made from metal pipe.
If a person wants to access the well. Then he or she must walk to the rear of the tank and there is a pulley and rope which would help them pull water from the well. The mini army tank is painted like an actual tank and the paint would last easily for 4-5 years. As this is a custom made project, the exact cost of this project and time taken is not mentioned.

Letters To Gustav Hellström
This is the actual letter that Miller wote to Hellstrom in 1949. This image is copywritten by HistoryForSale.com, but I hope they don't mind my use of it here, as it draws attention to their merchandise. The original document currently sells for US $ 1, 499.
“How does my 'Air-Conditioned Nightmare' go there?” adds Henry. “Haven't the slightest idea. I rather imagine it doesn't go at all!” With a “Sincerely Yours,” Henry signed his name. As an afterthought, he wrote vertically along the left-hand column, “Presume you've heard that Book I of 'Rosy Crucifixion' is out now in Paris - same publisher.” Henry posted this letter from his home in Big Sur, addressing it to Lars Gustav Hellström at Östervägen 25 in Solna, Sweden.
Gustav (or Gustaf) Hellström was born in Sweden in August 1882 . He worked as a foreign correspondent for a Swedish newspaper until 1935, reporting from the big Western cultural centres of Paris, New York and London. As a novelist, he worked in a realist style, including his 1927 “masterpiece,” a saga of a provincial Swedish family called Snörmakare Lekholm får en idé (Lacemaker Lekholm Has an Idea – full text). According to the Nobel Prize website, Hellstrom was member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, and had deleivered Nobel presentation speeches for T.S. Eliot and William Faulkner. It is said that Hellström’s wife was a friend of Marcel Duchamp and Carl Van Vechten (who took the photo of Henry found on the Wikipedia website).
LETTER TO HELLSTROM - 1951
The second letter from Henry to Gustav was written on April 24, 1951, again from Big Sur. In it, Henry asks if Gustav received a book he sent him, which implies that a correspondence existed beyond these two letters. Here is the text in full, followed by notes on the references:
“The rights to 'Picodiribi' belong pro tem to James Laughlin, New Directions, 333 6th Avenue, N.Y.C. Have not sold rights (in English) for the book yet. It will be published in French by Corréa, Paris. Can't believe Girodias has no copies of the 'Tropics'. Will write him to send you them. Must be some mistake. That experience at Döme - reminds me of the unique occasion when I was in a book store and some one asked for one of my books. Have you seen the February and March issues of 'The World Review' (London) which contain chapter from my new book about books - this chapter on Blaise Cendrars? Haven't heard a word about Patchen. Did you get the Hart Crane book I sent you?”
Above: An excerpt of Miller's letter from April 1951.
Picodiribi: Miller actually meant Picodiribibi, which was a portrait he wrote about an “Italian who used to visit our speakeasy in the Village—circa 1925 or ’26—an extraordinary conversationalist, a buffoon, and cultured to the fingertips” . The piece originally appeared as “The Robot Picodiribibi” in the July 1950 issue of World Review magazine (Shifreen & Jackson, C233), then again in December of that year in New Directions 12 anthology (Shifreen & Jackson, B69). It would be incorporated into Plexus in 1952.
James Laughlin: founded the New Directions imprint in 1936, and became one of Henry’s publishers.
Corréa, Paris: Henry’s French publisher, which had released the first edition of Plexus in 1952 (Shifreen & Jackson, A83a), amongst other things. When Henry refers to “the book,” I’m not sure if he means Plexus, or if he’d had planned to release the short “Robot Picodiribibi” as a booklet.
Girodias: Maurice Girodias, heir to the Obelisk Press, which had first published Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn.
Döme: Le Dôme is a café in Paris which became Miller’s prime hang-out during his early days in Paris. The way he mentions it here, I get the impression that Henry is referencing Hellstrom’s own experience at Le Dôme from a previous letter.
February and March issues of 'The World Review': “Blaise Cendrars” (Shifreen & Jackson, C239) and “More about Blaise Cendrars” (Shifreen & Jackson, C241) were published in the February and March issues of World Review, respectively.
my new book about books: Miller’s The Books in My Life was first published in October 1952 (Shifreen & Jackson, A86a). Henry had been working “feverishly” on this book since January 17, 1950 . At the time of writing this letter, Henry was struggling with coming up with a better title for this book than what it became .
Patchen: Kenneth Patchen (1911-1972) was an American writer/poet, who had made a strong impression on Henry (see Miller’s homage to him, “Patchen: Man Of Anger & Light,” which originally appeared in 1946, and was re-published in Stand Still Like The Hummingbird). After five years of living in a little cottage in a small town in Connecticut, Patchen moved to San Francisco in 1951 . Perhaps Miller is referencing his relocation.
Hart Crane: Hart Crane (1899-1932) was an Ohio-born poet who lived one of those tragic poet’s lives, ending with suicide off of a steamship at age 32. Miller was not particularly fond of Crane’s work. Writing to Wallace Fowlie in 1944, Henry wrote: “I can’t read Crane. I mean I don’t find anything in him that others see. My fault doubtless” . (Miller is perhaps being kind because Fowlie had written an essay on Crane). Crane’s suicide is mentioned in passing in Books in My Life (p.217) [he was referenced in a letter written by Sherwood Anderson, which Miller had read]. I’m thinking that Henry unloaded his Crane book on Hellström because he didn’t really care for it. The favour must have been returned by Hellström, because Henry included his name in an appendix in Books in My Life, entitled “Friends Who Supplied Me With Books.”
Lars Gustav Hellstrom died in Sweden less than two years later, on February 27, 1953.

Does anyone else get tired of comments purporting that "The People" will lose the 'definitely-gonna-happen' upcoming confiscation and/or resultant civil war?? To me those comments are nothing more than futile attempts to lower morale, and I, for one, will NOT fall for it!
As far as I am concerned, any possible scenario the government has thought about, has also been thought about by true Patriots! I don't think these Patriots are idiots, and I have the utmost faith that plans are in place to counter any possible move. (if the definitely-gonna-happen actually happens)

Consider this same analogy between a web designer and SEO (Search Engine Optimization) expert. Designers rarely understand SEO let alone know how to implement it into a website. Believe it or not, an astonishing number of website designers don’t have a clue about what SEO even means!
As a website is created and built, there must be an understanding about how web spiders crawl through websites checking for backlinks, HTML coding, content/copywriting, navigation, loading of website pages, meta tags and so forth.
Trying to implement an SEO strategy after a website has already been created can be a time consuming and expensive task. Why, you ask? If SEO wasn’t initially designed into the site, chances are there will be many structural and major design issues that will need to be addressed and changed after the fact.
Looks can also be deceiving when trying to choose a web designer. A web design agency can have a beautiful portfolio, but that doesn’t mean you should consider them qualified to create your website and implement your SEO strategy? Flash video clips, heavy image sites and audio may actually damage your business in terms of search engine rankings and hinder the user experience.
The way a website looks is only one factor of its success. A website design must be SEO and PEOPLE (user) friendly by being quick to download, and easy to navigate. Remember our restaurant example? A restaurant can have the most charming ambience, but if the food and service are poor, it can undermine its success.
If all your web designer talks about are meta keywords and they do not mention anything about link building or site architecture, consider this a red flag! If they promise you first place search engine rankings right away, they are also misleading you. There is no easy or fast way and it takes time to rise in the search engine rankings.
Looking for and finding an agency/designer that can build an attractive website and really understands how to create powerful search engine friendly sites IS possible. Take your time and don’t be afraid to ask a lot of questions because it will definitely be worth your effort and time!
We’ve heard a lot of horror stories through the years about web developers, hosting companies and SEO firms. Anything you would like to share including SEO tips or advice?
