A number of public properties allow visitors to experience the ACE Basin. Come paddle winding rivers, hike across islands steeped in history and catch a glimpse of the bald eagles, loggerhead sea turtles, and American alligators that thrive here.
Located in the northeast corner of Edisto Island, this Wildlife Management Area and Heritage Preserve is rich with history, wildlife and beautiful sights. Take a self-led driving tour through the preserve or walk through marsh and maritime forest to the undeveloped ‘boneyard’ beach.
South Fenwick Island is a barrier island managed by SCDNR and brimming with wildlife. Walking trails and limited camping/hunting allow visitors to experience the island's seasonal wetlands, wildflower plots and wading bird rookery. A dock provides first-come, first-served tie-up space.
The Environmental Learning Center, co-managed by SCDNR and the S.C. Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism, features hands-on interactive exhibits, visitor information, youth and adult programs and a meeting space. There are also walking and biking trails and a public boat landing on site.
Home to countless waterfowl and other protected species such as wood storks and bald eagles, Bear Island is a great spot for birdwatching. Miles of dikes provide numerous wildlife-viewing opportunities. Biking, hiking and hunting are also popular on this wildlife management area.
Donnelley Wildlife Management Area encompasses more than 8,000 acres of protected wetland and upland habitats and is a popular site for birdwatching from late winter to early spring. Hiking, biking, horse riding and hunting opportunities abound among the property's nature trails.
St. Helena Sound Heritage Preserve consists of a collection of coastal and barrier islands, including Otter Island, which is open year-round to the public for daytime visits and limited archery hunt and camping permits in the fall/winter. This preserve is only accessible by boat.

Pamper your pooch monthly with a box for dogs full of fun toys, healthy Made in the USA treats, and other exciting goodies. They ship full size toys and treats bags to give you the most value for your money. With prices ranging from $20 for 2 to 3 items to $50 for 6 items there is a box to fit every budget. They ship loads of samples in every box as well so you get more than your monies worth and shipping is included in every package price.
Claire's and Emmy's thoughts: First off, every one of these boxes helps other dogs in need, which is just so incredibly awesome and something you can feel good about. Barkbox donates 10% of profits to different shelters and rescues in the US and Canada; Dapper Dog donates $1 per box different rescues, shelters, and other pet organizations; and PupJoy donates $2 from every subscription box to the Bissell Pet Foundation, which works with rescues to provide resources for pet adoption, spay/neuter programs, microchipping, and foster care. Yay for giving back!

Hey there Amanda and Click! Thanks so much for being a part of the pack and we are so sorry about this experience. This is the not the experience that we want you guys to have at all and would love to turn this around for you both! We know how eager you guys must be to get your box and we don't blame you at all. It looks like this month's box would be Click's second box and last month was the first. Right now the first box always auto ships right away. Then following that our boxes ship out on the 15th of the month and you can see those boxes anytime from the 15th-26th of the month. Then right now that ETA delivery date can change at any time. We are so very sorry about this and can see how that would be frustrating! Then right now when you sign up for a multi month commitment and cancel that stops the renewal. Meaning you will still get the boxes that you signed up for and none following that. We try to make that apparent at sign up, but it can be easy to miss at times. We would hate to have you and Click leave the pack and want to ensure that you get what you paid for. If you have any further questions or concerns please email us directly at Lindz@barkbox.com! We want to straighten this out to create a better experience for both of you!
Keep your dog alert and fully engaged with a wide selection of dog toys. Choose from classic chew toys, plush toys, tug toys, bones and much more. There are various sizes of balls, with models that make noises or move erratically. There are also ball launchers, discs and squeaky dog toys. You'll find dog toys that resemble the furry critters or waterfowl that you come across on your hunts. Our dog toys span many kinds of materials, including soft plush, tennis ball material, natural rubber compound and stretchy weave.
When we went to meet (and ultimately take home) our rescue mini-schnauzer mix Reggie a year and a half ago, we took four things with us: a collar and leash, a small plush hedgehog, and this weblike rubber ball. The plush hedgehog is now a flat hedgehog — like most dogs, Reggie takes great pride in disemboweling his stuffed toys — and the leash and collar are a little worse for wear, but the Hol-ee Roller rubber ball is still going strong. In fact, it looks pretty much new.
I highly recommend The Dapper Dog Box to anyone looking to spoil their dog with quality products. As an over concerned dog mom, I'm always analyzing treat ingredients. The Dapper Dog Box always sends treats that are in line with my healthy beliefs for Bruce Wayne. I am also highly impressed with the size appropriate toys they send, as BW is a TINY dog .
I have tried Pet Gift Box and Barkbox. I have a beagle with allergies and is rough with his toys so I like that BarkBox provides boxes for them. Both have really cute themes. Pet Gift Box was Back To School it had a yellow bus toy, apple squeaky ball, a carton of milk filled with cookies, and notebook shaped treat. BarkBox the first one was New York themed a Statue of Liberty squeaky ball, chinese box with dumplings it was a toy, I didn’t like October’s box the vampire fang squeaky ball was cute but the coffin squeaky toy was kinda morbid but I guess it is the Vampires it was wood looking soft 4 rope pulls. November was a squeaky apron, and a turkey leg shaped ball that dispense treats when he rolls it around. BarkBox C.S. is excellent. I had to blast Pet Gift Box on twitter for their failure to respond to my emails and no info on shipping 3 weeks had passed and the site said 6-10 days I think but my gripe was they failed to answer any of my emails. They were like Flash Gordon after my tweet shame I had to go thru all that. Maybe they could offer a plan where you can get clothing and accessories instead of toys and treats but my beagle has never forgiven me for sweater I put on him it was a tad snug..lol. After that if you put anything on him he just lays on his back wiggling and twisting. But as for now I am grateful that he is able to get treats and toys he can actually enjoy he seems to be allergic to everything and he has Addisons disease he gets a shot every month. I think Pet Giftbox offers the allergy friendly and heavy chewers box called PawPack.
The StarMark Bob-A-Lot treat-dispensing toy is the perfect solution if you're looking for a toy that exercises and feeds your dog at the same time. With a 3-cup capacity, you can fill this toy with your dog's kibble or a handful of his favorite treats to motivate him to keep playing with the toy until it is completely empty. Plus, adjustable openings on the top and bottom of the toy allow you to customize the level of difficulty to extend each play session to the max.
With more than 5 million followers across its social media channels and having shipped more than 30 million toys and treats to pups in the U.S. and Canada, BarkBox is the brand at the center of dog obsession online and offline. The curated box of all-natural treats, chews and fun toys is designed – from the packaging to products – to create moments of insane joy for dogs and their people, with a new, fun theme each month. Dog-obsessed experts paw-pick the best treats and innovative toys to match a dog’s unique needs, including allergies or heavy chewers.

Well good afternoon. I’m glad to be here to have the opportunity to explain how the Department of Home Affairs has been keeping the Island safe during the pandemic.
I am grateful to the dedicated men and women of my Department and proud of what they have achieved and how they have worked together.
In my daily briefings, I have seen and heard first hand of the extraordinary work that people across my Department have done, going above and beyond what would normally be expected of them.
In the Fire and Rescue service, the Police and the Prison and Probation service. In the Communications Division, answering the phone for the 999 service keeping Government communications running.
Each person in the Department has made an individual contribution to the fight against coronavirus.
And the Civil Defence has stood ready to support the emergency services. These volunteers train weekly to be ready to step in, in the event of an emergency. They have helped distribute food parcels and have driven ambulances to support our paramedics.
We have worked with other agencies to protect the most vulnerable, supporting the establishment of a shelter for homeless people, keeping them safe during lockdown. Police officers have put a number of initiatives in place to support people who are subject to Domestic Abuse.
And we have restarted our legislative programme. The Department has three large bills to help reshape our justice system. Domestic Abuse, Sexual Offences and Obscene publications and Justice Reform.
These Bills are crucial to modernising our criminal justice system and it is important that they be allowed to continue.
We are also drafting emergency licensing regulations to support the licensed trade through these unusual times.
So the Department has achieved a lot since the start of this pandemic.
But, it’s important for me to thank you, the Public. You have made the job of the Department easier.
You have been the ones who stuck to the rules. You made personal sacrifices and complied with the law.
The Chief Constable has always said that the Police in our Island operate by consent.
And that has been even more true during this pandemic.
You have supported the Constabulary as they carried out their often difficult work. Policing a lockdown has not been easy, but you made it possible.
And your support has paid off as is clear to see with today’s results – a further day with no new cases.
As we enter a new stage in our response to the coronavirus threat, so the challenges we face will change.
The Chief Minister has said we are backing out of your lives, leaving you to make the choices on how best to stay safe.
This means you’re free to do more things, and with more people. But that also means more responsibility. Responsibility not just for you and your family, but also towards others.
You still cannot leave the house if you have the symptoms of coronavirus or you have been told to self-isolate. You should still keep your distance from others who are not part of your household and continue to wash your hands often.
You can gather in groups of ten, but you need to maintain your social distance.
And if you’re thinking about going out to a glen or on the open moorlands, please remember that we have had an exceptionally dry April and May. The ground is very dry and we have already had a number of incidents.
I would like to hand over to the Chief Fire Officer to explain about the work the Fire and Rescue service have been doing.

Why is literacy in the workplace so important?
The current state of literacy in the PEI labour force seriously limits PEI’s capacity to have an adaptable and viable workforce and a competitive provincial economy. This will increase over time. The effects of low literacy in our labour force will be with us for the next several decades.
People who are employed cannot quit work to go back to school because they cannot afford to do this. However, we know the numbers of Islanders with low skills work and we know where to find them.
Workplace learning programs can be easy to access if there is leadership, resources, and money available to help people upgrade their literacy levels.
If we can improve the literacy levels in our current labour force we can look forward to:
- Increased employment levels,
- More flexibility to take advantage of new opportunities,
- Higher incomes,
- More opportunity for passing the value of higher literacy rates from parents to their children,
- Higher levels of community involvement,
- Higher levels of trust, and
- Better health outcomes.

We were given the objective of making the water tank look like a fish tank with fish inside. We had to use a paint specifically designed for water tanks, which is manufactured mainly to cover surfaces and stand up to weather. The paint tends to be sticky and difficult to work with. Nonetheless we were able to execute the design.

Islamabad: A popular social networking website, Twitter, was blocked by the Pakistani authorities as the Twitter management refused to remove the tweets demonizing Islam and its Holy personalities.
According to a top telecommunications official of Pakistan, Twitter had to face ban in the country for several hours due to its rigidness in respecting Islam and not blocking the Islam-offensive content in the country.
The Chairman of the Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA), Muhammad Yaseen, informed that there were tweets on the social networking website which were promoting a competition on another popular social networking website, Facebook, to post images of the Muslims’ beloved Prophet, Hazrat Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him).
Imaging the Prophet is strictly prohibited in Islam and it is considered, unanimously, a blasphemy by all the Muslims of the world.
However, the Government of Pakistan restored Twitter services before Sunday midnight after about eight hours it initially blocked the website in the country. The reason of restoration could be the public pressure on the government due to its censorship policies.
Twitter spokesman, Gabriel Stricker, said that the website had not removed any tweets or made any other changes before Pakistan restored access to the website in the country.
PTA Chairman said that Pakistan's Ministry of Information Technology ordered the telecommunications authority at Sunday afternoon to block Twitter services nationwide because the management of Twitter had refused the request of the Pakistani government to remove the offending tweets.
On Sunday evening, he added, PTA received orders from the ministry to restore access to the blocked website. But he was unable to comment what could be the reason that persuaded the government for restoration.
He informed that the Pakistani government had requested the similar kind of demand to the management of Facebook where the blasphemous competition originally took place.
However, Facebook respected the request of Pakistan and its Muslim citizens unlike Twitter and blocked the offensive content in Pakistan which was against Islam and its Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him), he added.
Facebook confirmed in a written statement that it had blocked access to the content in Pakistan. The statement also mentioned that it occasionally restricts content when it is illegal or offensive out of respect for local laws and culture.
Facebook has faced ban in Pakistan on the orders of the Supreme Court of Pakistan in 2010 as the similar kind of competition on the website drew heavy criticism by the Muslims of the country. Facebook had to block the blasphemous pages in Pakistan then its services were restored in Pakistan after two-week ban.
Since then, the Government of Pakistan has been monitoring the major websites for any hated content against Islam and taking actions against them by blocking their access in the country.

Published in The Daily Star on Feb. 03 by Abir Abbas Chowdhury ::
States possess broad authority to regulate the movement of foreign nationals across their borders. They exercise their sovereign powers to determine who will be admitted and for what period. However, it is essential to ensure that non-nationals enjoy all of the inalienable rights applicable under international law. The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) defines basic rights of all persons such as the “right to life”, liberty and security, the right not to be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment as well as any arbitrary arrest or detention. States are definitely entitled to exercise jurisdiction at their international borders, but they must do so in light of the individual’s human rights obligations.
The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) set the Guidelines with a view to translating the international human rights framework into practical border governance measures. According to the Guidelines, the term ‘international borders’ refers to the politically defined boundaries separating territory or maritime zones between political entities and to the areas where political entities exercise border governance measures on their territory. As a result, the principle of non-discrimination shall be at the centre of all border governance measures. Prohibited grounds of discrimination shall include race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status, nationality, migration status, age, disability, statelessness, marital and family status, sexual orientation or gender identity, health status, and economic and social situation.
Notwithstanding the above, the border killing turned out to be one of national crisis for many states over the decades and Bangladesh has been one of them. As reported by the Legal Aid & Human Rights Organisation of Bangladesh, namely, Ain-o-Salish Kendra (ASK), the Border Security Forces (BSF) of India killed 27 civilian-Bangladeshis in 2014 (until 31st October, 2014), 26 people in 2013 and 48 people in 2012 along the Bangladesh-India border. The statistics clearly stipulates the gross violation of human rights of the people residing within the Bangladeshi territory and it has been a significant concern over the years not only for our state-running authorities but also for the international organisations working for guarantee of human rights globally.
Although over the past years our Government raised the issue of killing Bangladeshis along the border and the Indian authorities reaffirmed to bring down the killing to zero level. It is necessary to appreciate that any bilateral relations do not depend only on government-to-government relations but also the sum of the many ways individuals and institutions, public and private manage relations between Bangladesh and India in which people of both countries are involved.
On Jan 7, 2011, a 15-year-old Felani was shot dead by a trooper of BSF’s Choudhuryhat camp while trying to cross the barbed-wire fencing at Anantapur border point in Kurigram’s Phulbari Upazilla on her way back to Bangladesh. The victim’s body was left hanging from the fence for quite a while and the killing provoked huge outrage in both Bangladesh and India. One of BSF’s constable was accused and tried for the killing but could not be found guilty because of inconclusive and insufficient evidence against him. Due to heavy critics thereafter, the revision trial of Felani killing has been started by the Indian Border Security Force (BSF) at its sector headquarters in Cooch Behar of India.
As appears from the statistics above, we can say the reality has been something different. The rate of killing civilians around the Bangladeshi border not only inflated over the years, the victims of the incidents were also arbitrarily denied the access to justice.

Hybrid agents and investors have come together to provide you with the best of all worlds. Selling a house in Atlanta, GA with a hybrid agent investor is an option many people don’t know about. In most ways, selling your house with a hybrid agent working as an experienced investor will net you a higher return. Keep reading to discover some of the reasons why you should look at your choices between listing with a regular realtor or going to a hybrid agent/investor.
Save Valuable Time
Working with a hybrid agent to sell your house in Atlanta, GA may be a better option if time is an issue. When homes are new, the market will almost always bring a higher demand for the property. On the other hand, if you sell your house in Atlanta, GA directly to an investor. Companies with experienced hybrid agents and investors such as those at We Buy the Southeast, will likely allow you to close in a couple of days or in a few weeks. This opportunity will save you time and save you the risks that come with hanging onto the property before it sells.
Skip Costly Repairs
Working with a regular real estate agent makes sense if you aren’t worried about what an investigator could find out while selling your house in Atlanta, GA. Homes that have been staged to have an appeal to buyers do extraordinarily well. They attract shoppers who are browsing. Buyers can quickly do an online search for a house and within minutes they can take a virtual tour of your home.
If repairs are being neglected, a traditional listing can become very expensive. Waiting to finish the renovations for your home will cause a stop in the closing process. This will also cost you a lot more money as the home sits on the market. When selling your house in Atlanta, GA, you would be better off selling directly to experienced investors. We Buy The Southeast, a knowledgeable home buying company, will purchase the house as-is.
Pay Zero Commissions to a Realtor
When you work with an everyday agent to sell your house in Atlanta, GA. They can waste a significant amount of your time, money, and effort getting a buyer to the door of your home. Many buyers are wanting to hire a licensed real estate agent because they believe that real estate transactions require a lot of complex paperwork, showings, agreements, and other additional aspects of marketing and selling a property.
In reality, real estate can be fulfilled in a simple one-page purchase and sell agreement. Often sellers are shocked to hear that most of what regular realtors “require” is not actually required to sell your house. Anyone over 18 years old and who is a legal resident can become a real estate agent once they pass an exam, which only is 75 hours in Atlanta. This is less than working two full weeks of a full-time job! Once licensed, agents will take 6% of the home equity when you sell.
On the other hand, hybrid agents will not waste time advertising your home or looking for customers. Instead they will purchase your home directly from you. This will save you a great amount of money since you do not have to pay the 6% realtor fee. Any other thoughts are discussed in depth with you and there are no secret payments or closing costs that you will have to worry about. You walk away from the closing with the amount agreed upon.
Run The Numbers
We make it easy for you to make an educated choice. Because of our mix of experienced hybrid agent investors, We Buy The Southeast will provide you with many opportunities while selling your house in Atlanta, GA. We Buy The Southeast provides you with the knowledge and figures for each home sales process. We help you to assess the variables that come with each choice to make the right option for you.

Magnets have been used for thousands of years to cure all sorts of illnesses. Most generally magnetic therapy has been used for pain relief. Many arthritis sufferers believe that wearing a magnetic bracelet cures their pain or at least reduces the discomfort so they can resume their normal activities. This subject fascinates me. You see I not only write extensively on the subject of back pain, I have also endured the pain of herniated discs and surgery. In my articles I encourage people to look for alternative to traditional drugs and surgery. Because of this I am always searching for alternative non-invasive medicines and ancient treatments and cures.
Most of us probably know someone who wears a copper and or magnetic bracelet. In fact many well known actors and athletes swear by them. Having explored many other types of treatments from meditation to acupuncture to Qigong, it seemed appropriate to investigate the effectiveness of magnetic therapy. First I always approach my research with a healthy amount of skepticism, but also with an open mind. I based on the notion that if a certain medical practice has been used for thousands of years maybe there is some validity to it. After all back pain is nothing new. Humans have been treating back problems from the dawn of time and through all those thousands of years must have found some methods of relieving the pain that worked.
So let us look at the idea that magnets can relieve pain. The concept is really quite simple as anyone knows magnetic have a north and a south pole that generates a magnetic field. Think of the sun, the moon and the earth. Each has a north and south pole and each has a magnetic field or force it is this force that keeps us spinning around the sun and prevents us from falling off the earth. The larger the mass of an object determines the greater the magnetic force or attraction. The theory is magnets with their magnetic field work with a body’s own electric field to increase blood flow improving circulation to a painful area, which reduces inflammation and pain.
Great but do magnets work? Well to be honest there is conflicting evidence as to the effectiveness of magnets in reducing pain. However it is interesting to note that the FDA allows manufacturers of magnetic devices to state that these devices relieves pain, improves circulation, promotes relaxation and improves well being. Basically unless you have a pacemaker, wearing a magnetic bracelet is a low risk way of perhaps relieving your pain.
The best source for magnetic bracelets is the internet. Many companies sell these bracelets and other magnetic devices. Of course you can find them on eBay and any number of merchant sites. There are many styles and prices for these bracelets, so shop around. I found a man’s copper and magnetic bracelet for $12.95 which included free shipping. I ordered it and plan to test it out. I will report on my findings in another article.
Although I think it is interesting to check out various alternatives to modern medicine, I also believe it make sense to combine the best of ancient wisdom with today’s best research and practices. With this in mind I highly recommend an exercise program specifically design to treat back problems. Extensive research has proven that exercise is the single most effective way to prevent and cure back problems. One of the best systems is “The Lose The Back System” developed by The Healthy Back Institute. This system has been used by thousands to lose their back pain and live pain free.
Coach Pete is an expert on back pain and director of Aching Back Blues. Coach Pete has endured back pain, therapy and surgery and has overcome the pain. He believes that living pain free and recovering from your back pain is possible. There are alternatives to suffering and surgery. But it is up to you! Take the first step now and get your life back. For tons of fantastic FREE information about How To Cure Back Pain you should definitely check out his blog.

Take the Bill Murray classic Groundhog Day, add a generous helping of 1980s Hong Kong martial arts action comedy, top it off with a dash of California Bay Area flavor, and you’ll get Rope-A-Dope. I was lucky enough to work on this short two years ago, after which is won a plethora of awards in the indie film circuit, including the Audience Choice Award at Sundial 2014 and the Kickass Original Film Award from the LA Indie Film Festival 2013.
Well, the gang is back in town with the sequel, Rope-A-Dope 2: The Return of the Martial Arts Mafia! With help from all our awesome friends at The Stunt People, We Are Scandinavia, and plenty of others, we are proud to finally release the latest entry in the Stunt People’s long history of awesome martial arts action. The fights are bigger, the laughs are louder, and my hair is greasier than ever before! I can assure you that Eric and Dennis pulled out all the stops for this one, and it is hands down one going to be the best fight you've seen this year. Watch it. Love it. Share it. Repeat. This is what American action cinema could be.

The Basilica of Saint Peter, commonly known as St. Peter’s Basilica, is located within the Vatican City in Rome. It occupies a “unique position” as one of the holiest sites and as “the greatest of all churches of Christianity. In Catholic tradition, it is the burial site of its namesake Saint Peter, who was one of the twelve apostles of Jesus and, according to tradition, was the first Bishop of Antioch, and later first Bishop of Rome and therefore first in the line of the papal succession. While St. Peter’s is the most famous of Rome’s many churches, it is not the first in rank, an honour held by the Pope’s cathedral church, the Basilica of St. John Lateran.
Catholic tradition holds that Saint Peter’s tomb is below the altar of the basilica. For this reason, many Popes, starting with the first ones, have been buried there. There has been a church on this site since the 4th century. Construction on the present basilica, over the old Constantinian basilica, began on April 18, 1506 and was completed in 1626.
St. Peter’s is famous as a place of pilgrimage, for its liturgical functions and for its historical associations. It is associated with the papacy, with the Counter-reformation and with numerous artists, most significantly Michelangelo. As a work of architecture, it is regarded as the greatest building of its age. Contrary to popular misconception, Saint Peter’s is not a cathedral, as it is not the seat of a bishop. It is properly termed a basilica. Like all the earliest churches in Rome, it has the entrance to the east and the apse at the west end of the building.

Talk about being a good sport…just days after sustaining a horrific leg injury (many considering it the worst ever in sports), Kevin Ware of the Louisville Cardinals appeared on Late Night With David Letterman to […]
One night before the Rolling Stones take the stage at the 12.12.12 concert, Mick Jagger visited Late Show With David Letterman to give the Top Ten List. His list included “Nobody wants to hear anything from your new album!” (Advice that Jagger probably doesn’t take too seriously: both of the band’s new songs, “Doom And Gloom” and “One More Shot” have made the band’s setlist at their recent shows.)
The Rolling Stones have been added to New York City’s 12.12.12 concert taking place next week (on, as it’s name suggests, December 12). Dubbed “The Concert For Sandy Relief,” the show, which takes place at Madison Square Garden, will raise money to help provide assistance to the millions of people throughout the tri-state area who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy.
Letterman was clearly unaware of Page and Jones’ histories as session musicians before they formed Zeppelin, so Plant pointed that they’d both played on a lot of records, and joked that during that time he was working “on the blacktop” and John Bonham was stealing cars. Letterman’s response: “And had you mentioned the part about stealing cars to the Kennedy Center people?”
Clearly, it was a departure for the Kennedy Center Honors. Now in it’s 35th year, the ceremony started out by paying tribute to cultural icons like Fred Astaire, Ella Fitzgerald and Tennessee Williams. In recent years, rock has been represented more and more at this prestigious event, with Paul McCartney, Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey, Elton John and Bruce Springsteen all collecting the Kennedy Center medallion. But past ceremonies probably never got as loud as this year’s.
The Robert Plant/Jimmy Page/John Paul Jones “reunion” will last at least one more day: Plant, Page and Jones will be visiting fellow Kennedy Center honoree David Letterman less than 24 hours after The Kennedy Center Honors, as they appear on “Late Show With David Letterman” Monday night.
The show won’t be broadcasted live: an edited version will air on CBS on December 26. But CBS Local will be there, live tweeting the event from Radio.com. We’ll also have a wrap-up after the show is over Sunday night.
Have you ever wondered what the Late Show would be like without any laughter? See some clips from David Letterman’s “silent” show.
Led Zeppelin, Buddy Guy and David Letterman are going to be honored at the 35th Annual Kennedy Center Honors, along with actor Dustin Hoffman and ballerina Natalia Makarova. The ceremony will take place at the Kennedy Center Opera Stage in Washington, D.C. on December 2, and will air on CBS December 26 at 9 pm ET.
Bono and The Edge of [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]U2[/lastfm] are stopping by the Ed Sullivan Theater tonight (July 18) to chat with David Letterman about Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, the big-budget Broadway spectacle for which they […]


As Hurricane Sandy approaches, New Yorkers have been stocking up on packets of ramen and cans of beans, unhappily contemplating the less than appetizing meals that they’ll be eating over the next few days, meals that will more than likely involve a lot of peanut butter and jelly.
But for those who can’t bear the thought of lunching on crackers and tuna fish, there is hope: the subways might be down, but fine dining doesn’t stop just because there’s a hurricane on the way. A number of the city’s best restaurants are planning to serve as usual on Monday and Tuesday, providing a ravenous public with foie gras, lobster bolognese and miso-glazed salmon.
That is, so long as Sandy doesn’t obliterate Manhattan altogether.
Restaurants in hotels, backed up by generators and with a captive clientele, are the most reliable bets for finding a three-star Michelin meal during the frankenstorm. Jean-Georges, lodged securely in the Trump International Tower, has no plans to close.
“Absolutely, tomorrow we will be honoring all reservations,” said maitre d’ Kyle Lohr, who was presiding over a “quieter than normal” restaurant Sunday night. A hard hit from Sandy could change things, he admitted, with the limiting factor being staff—it requires quite a large one to run a three-star restaurant properly.
Jean-Georges’s sister restaurant Jojo, on East 64th Street, was planning to close for lunch on Monday, but would be open for dinner.
Per Se was also open on Sunday night, with the last reservation at 9 p.m. rather than 10 p.m., but the restaurant had yet to make the call about whether to open on Monday or not.
But at least a foodie can be sure of the Breslin Bar and Dining Room at the Ace Hotel, which was open until 10:30 p.m. on Sunday night and planned to open again at 7 a.m. Monday for breakfast. Alas, the hurricane will not help fearless foodies score a reservation at Breslin’s kin The Spotted Pig, which was closed Sunday night and all of Monday, much like a few other standbys of deep-pocketed foodies: Nobu, Daniel, Sandro’s, Gilt and Sushi of Gari. Nor can New Yorkers comfort themselves with a huge slab of Peter Luger steak: the restaurant shut down at 5 p.m. Sunday.
Telepan on the Upper West Side was busy Sunday night, dishing out liquid courage to a crowd at the bar while workers scurried around below, clearing out its basement in case of flooding. Too bad the restaurant would not be serving any bay scallops coddled eggs come Monday. As for Tuesday, the owners planned to play it by ear.
Likewise, Gramercy denizens will have to wait and see whether Casa Mona opens on Monday after closing at 9:30 Sunday night, two and a half hours earlier than normal to allow staff to get home before the storm struck. La Sirene in Soho, which was open Sunday night, is tentatively serving Monday dinner. And Saxon + Parole in Noho also sent its staff home early, dismissing everyone who didn’t live in Manhattan at 4 p.m., although the restaurant served dinner.
“As of right now, we will be open tomorrow, although that may change,” said hostess Emily Erickson when The Observer called. Good news for Noho dwellers, who kept the restaurant’s remaining staff on their toes Sunday night with a steady stream of walk-ins. Fortunately, the managers, who filled the serving vacancies, only had to deal with around a third of the patrons the spot would normally see on a Sunday.
At least Eleven Madison Park, which will be open for lunch and dinner on Monday and Tuesday, is a sure thing. And Tribeca’s Odeon wants to be.
“Our intention is to stay open if it’s safe; if we can, we will be open,” said manager Dave Moody, who was busy scanning the humming eatery as we spoke.
“It’s been quite busy tonight,” said Mr. Moody. “And there’s a really nice mood. It’s like, everybody’s happy, they’ve all done their preparations, now they’re ready to relax and have some drinks together before the storm hits.”

When looking through my old photographs, I found a bunch of photos I took of this fox that I found just chilling in my back garden…
So I’ve decided to post these with Fox Facts:
- Foxes are part of the dog family- which makes sense since this fox would repeatedly visit the garden and play with my dogs squeaky toys.
- Sad- Because of their beautiful fur, they are bred and kept in captivity, similar to chickens until they are slaughtered in fur factory farms(the side of Fashion I hate)
- Although they are part of the dog family, they can retract claws similar to cats.
- Similar to sharks, turtles and birds, they have a cool ‘magnetic sense’ making them superior hunters
- Foxes are very playful.
- We should leave them and their fur alone. (Learn more: http://www.peta.org/issues/animals-used-for-clothing/animals-used-clothing-factsheets/inside-fur-industry-factory-farms/)

It steps down DC voltage from 70 V to 20 V. It measures the output voltage and compares with reference voltage. Their difference is passed to PI controller which gives current to be drawn to maintain output voltage to reference value. This calculated reference current is compared with actual inductor current. If actual inductor current is less than calculated reference current, then switchin mosfet S is turned on so that inductor current increases. If actual inductor current is greater than calculated reference current, then switchin mosfet S is turned off so that inductor current decreases. In this way, output voltage is regulated.

Las Lomas High School initiated its school lockdown protocol Thursday after a nearby police action, though police say neither the campus or its students were threatened at any time.
Lt. Jay Hill said Walnut Creek officers were recovering an abandoned stolen car in the Creekside Drive area of the city Thursday morning when an individual approached the car, spotted police, and ran off.
Officers initiated a 20-minute search for the individual but did not find him, Hill said, with the school asking if it was necessary to lock down the campus and then doing so out of an abundance of caution.
This site fielded a number of inquiries from both parents and student (thanks for writing!) but Hill and other police officials stressed the school and its student were not in any danger.
Las Lomas lifted its lockdown order around 10 a.m.
An abundance of caution – I guess you have to play that way. Things have changed.

- a story about returning home
RE:WILDING US is the working title for a coming documentary aimed at building engagement for the Rewilding movement, letting nature heal itself by leaving it alone, while also strengthening local economies in a sustainable way. Various Rewilding actors have already set aside millions of acres, giving space back for wildlife to return on land and in seas. A mass recovery of ecosystems and the life-supporting function they provide, boosting biodiversity and dealing with climate change as a consequence. Much needed as two thirds of the earth’s wildlife has disappeared during the past 50 years. "But it can bounce back in a decade", if we just let it.
Spanning over two continents, Latin America and Europe, the documentary will show how the relationship with nature influences the craftsmanship of people nested in the Rewilding movement, be it a local food producer, chef, volunteer, artist, celebrity, manager, diplomat, policymaker or investor. RE:WILDING US is a story about returning home, viewing humans as part of the wild; "one species among many, bound together in an intricate web of life that ties us to the atmosphere, the weather, the tide, the soils, the freshwater, the oceans, and all living creatures on the planet." Embracing the idea of non-duality, rewilding nature is also rewilding us, stepping back and letting nature/mind settle on its own, reconnecting where links are broken. Helping us become whole again.
RE:WILDING US is built around a number of stand-alone episodes, each one showing an inspiring example of Rewilding, and can be used independently to promote a cause or organisation. The collection of episodes is edited to fit the documentary's larger story to be shown at selected events, serving as a campfire where we gather and share stories.
//Short film. Release: June 2024.
//Executive producer: Göran Gennvi (also Day Zero (2019))
"The first step to rewilding the Earth...is to imagine it."

Marian House Community Outreach
The Marian House Community Outreach Program reaches out to people in need, serving families and individuals who live in apartments, motels, local shelters, halfway houses, tent camps and on the streets. Community Outreach’s intent is to cushion the impact of poverty on children, families and individuals by providing essential living items and the basic skills needed to keep themselves and their children healthy and safe. Since its inception in 2002, the program has expanded from helping a handful of people one day per week to a five-day-per-week program which encompasses all of El Paso County.
Working-poor and homeless families and individuals may have limited access to transportation, and/or may be poorly educated and fail to have a good understanding of the community resources that might be available to them. Catholic Charities picks up donations and delivers those donated items directly to people in need, shifting the onus from those in need to those who can help. Program staff does more than simply distribute emergency supplies, they link patrons to other community services, striving to bring each person or family to a higher level of self-sufficiency.
Throughout the Pikes Peak region, the Outreach truck brings goods such as groceries, baby supplies, clothing and household items to people’s homes or where ever they are living.
Community Outreach staff also provides referrals as well as case management.
For information about the Marian House Community Outreach services, or to make a donation or have one picked up please call 719-229-9942.

Continuous low flow liquid dispenser
This equipment is especially suited to provide liquids in installations where a continuous low flow is required. It does that the liquid recirculates continuously.
The filling equipment receives the liquid from the tank and drives it to the mixture constantly. The minimum that it is able to keep is 6 liters/hour, 0,1 liters/minute. For higher flows it may be necessary to change any of its components, either the pump or the flowmeter.
The assembly has the pumping system, a control touch-screen and a PID control inverter. The inverter controls the speed of the pump, modifying its frequency when it is necessary. A flowmeter is assembled at the outlet of the pump, checking the liquid flow instantaneously and sending the data to the inverter. This way the inverter changes the speed of the pump by its frequency if the instantaneous flow is different to the preselected. The flow can be selected at any time by the control touch-screen, which is connected to the inverter with an special wire called ModBus.
The control of the flow can also be carried out by the PLC of the plant. To indicate to the inverter which order has to give priority to, whether the PLC or the control touch-screen, we have an option on the same control touch-screen.
Everything is integrated into a polyethylene box to protect it against external agents.

Of course it needed the outer section of the platter on there to lower the central platter to the correct height. Simple physics.
I was testing the rotation without it - what a complete dickhead.
Guys, thanks for solving this for me...and I'll clean the pulley in a while. First, I have to go somewhere and get these rocks out of my head.
So is it good now? When I put on my last belt I was beside myself trying to keep it from flying off. Then I put the belt on and all the platter and so forth, then it started fine with belt staying on. This is why you come here, when you just cant figure it out, it helps to have another have a look!

The Notre Dame Varsity Hockey team traveled down to South Bend for a set of games, including one at the Compton Family Ice Arena on the Campus of the University of Notre Dame.
The Irish dropped the first of the two games 3-2 to South Bend Adams. Vincent Anderson game Notre Dame an early 1-0 lead with an unassisted goal in the first period. The Eagles tied the game in the second and went up 2-1 early in the third with a powerplay goal. The Irish would answer as Nick Popov would score with assists going to Toby Roth and Vaughn Carraher but Adams would score the eventual game-winner midway though the period. Sebastian Vanadia finished with 27 saves in goal for Notre Dame.
In the second game against South Bend St. Joseph the Irish and Indians would trade second period goals as Anderson scored off of a faceoff win by Ryan Lindsey before St. Joseph would score on a rebound. With just 22 seconds remaining in the game the Indians would score on a 2-on-1 to take the win. Vanadia was once again strong in net with 21 saves.
As part of the road trip the Irish also attended a team mass at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, view the Notre Dame Campus and took in a Women’s Basketball game.

With experience bringing to market over 50,000 stalls in 24 standalone parking structures and 55 buildings with internal parking, BASE can keep you parkin’ in the free world. One specialty is our ability to deal with challenging constraints in urban settings such as tight sites in heavily congested areas that require structural schemes that are cost-effective and constructible. A great design can also produce a building configuration that provides more parking stalls than originally planned and adds safety and security by eliminating blind spots and hidden areas.
Located on a tight urban site, Avenir includes an intricate ramp system for circulation in the parking garage. The layout of the columns on the parking levels was closely studied with the architect to eliminate costly transfer girders while still providing an efficient parking layout. Large cantilevered slabs allowed for inset columns at the property lines on the parking levels, thereby removing the need for transfer grade beams.
This 153-unit affordable mid-rise has 78 parking stalls in three separate 3-tiered mechanical systems slightly below ground level. An urban infill project challenged with strict height limits and a small footprint wedged between two existing buildings required creativity to develop a structural layout that works for both parking and upper level residential units. This did not leave much space for a transfer slab over the parking footprint so column layouts and structural systems were adjusted to accommodate the stacked parking system.
This compact site supports a 12-story, approximately 126,000 SF office building. Fifty-five parking stalls are available on three levels of parking. Vertical circulation for the building is located entirely at the south entrance to offer an open, nearly uninterrupted, flexible tenant space. Office columns are supported on a variety of transfer girders at the topmost parking levels to create open space for a drive aisle with two bays of parking. The uppermost parking level was designed with flexibility to convert it into an office level in future.
At a massive 1.85 million square feet, this Post-Tensioning Institute award-winner is four stories with stalls for 4,436 vehicles. BASE was originally engaged to only provide a value engineering evaluation of the structural design for the contractor, but based on realized cost savings of several million dollars the State of Hawaii allowed BASE to take over as the structural engineer of record.
This 2021 Post-Tensioning Institute Award-winning project holds 1,894 vehicles in two basement levels and seven upper levels of a 15-story, 200-foot tall podium, all serviced by speed ramps with several levels designed for stacked puzzle parking.

SHOW ME THE MONEY: WHY YOUR DOG DOESN’T LISTEN, UNLESS YOU’RE HOLDING FOOD
By: Dr. Jen Summerfield
Today, I want to talk about one of the most common struggles I see with my behavior clients and their dogs. Often, they’ve been through a basic obedience class or two, and their pup has learned a few skills. But when they try to apply them in real life, they quickly run into a road block:
“Buster is so stubborn! He only listens if I have a treat.”
Or, more broadly in casual conversations or online discussions:
“You know, that’s the problem with positive training. Unless you have food in your hand, forget it! The dog won’t do anything you say.”
First, let me say that I can absolutely sympathize with the frustration many dog owners feel about this! It’s aggravating to put in the time and effort of attending a weekly class, or setting aside training time at home, only to feel like you haven’t made any kind of useful progress at getting your dog to listen.
In class, with a piece of cheese in your hand? Sure! But anyplace else, outside of an obvious training context… nothing.
It’s the kind of thing that gives reward-based training a bad name, which is unfortunate. And sadly, it’s all too common.
But, here’s the good news.
It’s easy to avoid! And if your dog already has “show me the money!” syndrome, it’s also pretty darned easy to fix. 😊
So first, let’s take a look at why this problem is so common.
Oftentimes, the progression of training a skill like “sit” goes something like this:
We use a treat to lure the dog into a sitting position -> praise and reward. So far, so good! In class, with hot dog slices or pieces of chicken, the dog sits beautifully.
The dog knows the behavior now… right? Time to start using it in daily life!
Now, we start asking the dog to sit at random times around the house, or outside on a walk. No treats are forthcoming. Before long, the dog completely ignores us.
But in class, those sits are still looking great!
So what gives?
In fact, when we approach training this way, we inadvertently teach our dogs that it only pays to listen if they see the treats up front. They’re not being stubborn or willful – they’re just doing what makes sense, given the contingencies we’ve taught them.
Look at it from the dog’s perspective:
Scenario 1: Mom (or dad) has treats in her hand. She cues “sit!” -> dog sits, and gets a reward.
Scenario 2: No treats visible. Mom cues “sit!” -> dogs sits, and gets nothing.
Those are the only two scenarios the dog has ever seen. If treats are visible beforehand, he gets a reward 100% of the time. So of course, he complies! But if NO treats are visible, he gets a reward 0% of the time.
So why bother sitting, in that case?
When we train this way, we’re skipping a critical step in the process: teaching the dog that a reward is still available, even if he doesn’t see it up front!
To avoid this problem, we need to fill in the gap.
Once your dog has learned to sit with a food lure and hand signal, try putting the treats in your pocket, or on a table nearby – and cue the sit again. He may look confused at first. This is normal! If he needs help, try luring him into a sit with the same hand motion you were using before.
When he finally sits, praise and GIVE A TREAT from your pocket, or the nearby bag on the table.
Once he’s got the hang of things, try randomly asking for a sit around the house, outside of a formal training session. Again, help your pup with a hand signal if you need to. When he sits, tell him he’s brilliant and surprise him with a treat! To make this easier, I normally recommend keeping a few shelf-stable snacks in your pocket, or stashing bags strategically around the house for easy access whenever you need them.
Eventually, you’ll be able to start skipping the treats every now and then, or substituting other “life rewards” for compliance when your dog does what you ask – things like going out the door for a walk, or putting down his dinner bowl, or being released to hop out of the car at the park. But don’t rush this. For quite a while, focus on convincing your dog that you always come through with a reward… even if he doesn’t see one.
What does the finished product of this kind of training look like, you might ask?
With my own dogs, I do try to keep some treats handy most of the time in case I want to grab them for a quick reward. So if we’re out for a walk, and my dog snatches a piece of trash from the gutter, I can say “drop it!” – then reward with a snack from my coat pocket when he eagerly spits it out. I don’t need to rustle a treat bag to get his attention, or wave a piece of cheese under his nose. He trusts that when I ask him to “drop it,” I’ll come through with something better.
And if I don’t, on occasion – it’s no big deal. We have enough trust built up that he’ll still listen, next time.
The same is true for other important life skills. My boys can sit and stay, load up politely in the car, and come back when I call them. If I’ve asked them to do something difficult and I have treats handy, I’ll give a reward. But they never know ahead of time whether they’ll get something or not – and that’s why they always (or almost always!) listen.
There’s nothing magic about any of this, and it doesn’t take any particular skill on the part of the trainer – it’s just the science of behavior at work!
So if your dog ignores you unless there’s a treat in your hand, don’t despair. He’s not being stubborn, or naughty. You just need to help him understand that it’s worth his while to pay attention.

Association predicts growth for next year
Restaurant industry sales are expected to rise 5 percent during 2007 to a record $537 billion, according to the National Restaurant Association.
Next year will be the 16th consecutive year of real growth for the industry, a result of capturing an increasing portion of the food dollar, the association said. The NRA projected that Americans will spend 47.9 percent of their food budget in the nation's foodservice outlets, which are expected to grow to 935,000 next year.
Industry sales growth will continue to be strongest in the Southern and Western U.S. the association reported, driven by growth there in local economies, disposable income and population counts.
Cracker Barrel revamps billboards, advertising
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store is changing its old marketing ways with the launch of billboards that include food shots for the first time, a return to radio advertising and plans for its first significant TV campaign in 2007.
The new billboard images mark the first time in six years that they've been changed.
The old billboard design, which featured the chain's logo of a man sitting next to a cracker barrel and directions to the nearest restaurant, "was not working as well as it should have been," said chief marketing officer Simon Turner.
Cracker Barrel ended fiscal 2006 on July 28 with same-store restaurant sales down 1.1 percent for the year and same-store retail sales down 8.1 percent, according to its financial report.
Billboards carry the "Comin' right up" tag under photos of various menu items, including pancakes, biscuits, whole-kernel corn, sweet baby carrots and green beans.
The billboards continue to give directions to the nearest Cracker Barrel. The chain has begun revising about 1,500 billboards and expects to have all of them up by March 2007.
Customers can help charity as they shop

Each Greenbax accumulated is equal to $1.50.
Tiny bites, big taste ahead for 2007
Bite-sized desserts are big on restaurant menus.
But don't look for Scandinavian food to make a splash anytime soon.
That's according to a new survey of more than 1,100 chefs nationwide released last week by the National Restaurant Association.
The survey, part of the association's annual industry forecast, polled chefs on what flavors and foods will be hot -- and not -- in the coming year for diners eating out.
Other items to watch for: locally grown and organic produce, flatbread, exotic mushrooms, salts, pomegranates and grass-fed and free-range meat.
What's passe? Starfruit, organ meats, kiwi, edible flowers, blackened items, okra, catfish and foams.
IHOP, iPod team up to teach English
IHOP -- one of the 44 restaurants operated by Dallas-based franchisee ACG Texas LLC -- is participating in a test to see how well the iPod can help its Spanish-speaking employees learn English and its English-speaking employees learn Spanish.
Since Apple Computer released the video iPod in October 2005, businesses have seized upon the palm-size machine to use as an employee training tool because of its mobility, its information capacity and its ability to hold the interest of today's young adults, most of whom have grown up with computers and video games. Those attributes make it ideal for the restaurant industry, operators and training consultants said.
A workbook and flash cards accompany the video loaded on the iPod. An employee will watch a video clip and write in the workbook. The iPod also has a microphone so an employee can practice speaking the English or Spanish words.
Subway launches 'radio' network
Both the Subway and Cheeseburger Cheeseburger chains recently launched their own branded, in-store "radio" networks -- systems that download, manage and play music collections tailored to customers' tastes.
The subscription Private Label Radio service also supports in-restaurant airing of national or regional radio commercials, messaging about in-store specials and services, such as catering, and the distribution of employee training materials.
Subway Radio programming was developed by DMI in conjunction with Miami-based Independent Purchasing Cooperative, or IPC, the franchisee-owned buying organization of the Subway chain. The network is in place in 34 states and five Canadian provinces at more than 1,000 franchised branches of the sandwich chain, which is based in Milford, Conn., and has more than 26,000 units in 84 countries.
