Gaithersburg, MD. and San Francisco, CA, March 25, 2019 — It’s something your mom always told you – eat your breakfast – and now college students are starting to do just that, thanks to Starship robots and Sodexo. Research has shown that up to 88 percent of college students skip breakfast, primarily because of lack of time, but that number is starting to turn around when delivery robots arrive on campus. Starting today, students at Northern Arizona University’s (NAU) Flagstaff campus will have the convenience of receiving food delivered by robot.
To help celebrate the launch of a fleet of more than 30 robots on campus and raise awareness of the breakfast offerings, the companies are partnering with Einstein Bros. Bagels and offering free breakfast for the remainder of the academic year to the NAU student who places the first order via the Starship app. The school’s nearly 25,000 students and faculty can now use the Starship app (iOS and Android) to order food and drinks from local retailers to be delivered anywhere on campus, within minutes. Each on-demand delivery costs just $1.99 and also works in conjunction with the student meal plan. Other participating retailers include national chains Star Ginger, as well as on-campus restaurants Cobrizo Mexican Grill, Turnip the Greens, G’s NY Style Deli, and The Wedge Market and Pizza.
“I’m really excited for these robots! Having the ability to get breakfast delivered right to my door simply with my meal plan will be a lifesaver for early classes and long days,” said NAU student Josh Feygin.
"Sodexo oversees dining services at more than 700 colleges and universities which gives us unique insights into the evolving needs and preferences of students,” said Barry Telford, CEO, Universities West, Sodexo North America. "Today's college students are prolific users of food delivery apps and they place a high value on convenience, ease and diversity of options, so we are thrilled to be able to provide this cutting-edge robot delivery service to Northern Arizona University via our partnership with Starship."
Starship Technologies operates commercially on a daily basis around the world. Its robots have traveled over 150,000 miles. The robots use a combination of sophisticated machine learning, artificial intelligence and sensors to travel on sidewalks and navigate around obstacles. The computer vision-based navigation helps the robots to map their environment to the nearest inch. The robots can cross streets, climb curbs, travel at night and operate in both rain and snow. A team of humans can also monitor their progress remotely and can take control at a moment’s notice.
Northern Arizona University is a high-research university with a statewide enrollment of 31,000 students. More than 22,000 students attend the Flagstaff campus, with more than 8,000 students enrolled online and at community campuses throughout the state. Research in genetics, forestry and ecology has drawn international recognition to the university, which also is highly regarded for its education, business and engineering programs. NAU’s student population represents 127 tribal nations and is on its way to becoming the nation’s leading university serving Native American/Alaskan and Hawaiian Native cultures. NAU launched competency-based Personalized Learning in 2013, the first self-paced, online education program that cuts the cost and time to an undergraduate degree.

Our guest this week is Jen Schachter. Jen is a multimedia maker and a mastermind of interactive art projects, including a giant light-up sign for the Obama White House, a wooden parking validation robot, and a monumental 3D-printed sculpture of Rosie the Riveter. You can find her product reviews in Make Magazine, her epic collaborations with Adam Savage on Tested.com, and her tool manuals in fabrication shops in Baltimore.
This is an excellent alternative to the rubber respirators that are standard in most shops. It’s a breathable cloth filtration mask with one-way air vents that prevent condensation from building up inside. It’s comfortable to wear, doesn’t suction to your face, and the straps are a lot easier to get on and off. They have 4 different kinds of filters available for dust, fumes, smoke, chemicals and stuff, down to .1 micron. The fact that it’s so comfortable means I’m not constantly ripping it off so it’s actually doing its job — saving my sinuses, my lungs, and probably my life in the long run.
These work pants are a gamechanger for women in trades. They fit really well, have lots of deep and specialized pockets, reinforced knees, and tool loops. They are made of super thick rugged denim that stretches. You can literally do squats in them with full mobility. The other thing I love, apart from the name and the function is the company was founded by three women, and their marketing is really diverse and inclusive of different body types, skin colors, and gender expressions. I have a pair of their Maven Slim Stretch back from when the brand used to be called Moxie and Moss, and it’s pretty much all I wear in the shop. They have other cuts and styles, overalls, shirts, and other gear too. My one complaint is they are always out of stock because they’re in such high demand!
I’ve had a Craftsman Bolt-on tool for 6 years and it’s probably the power tool I reach for most. It’s a cordless, interchangeable multi-tool with one drill-type handle and a whole set of attachments that snap on and off. Unfortunately Craftsman discontinued them, but Black and Decker’s version, The Matrix, looks about the same and it has 4.5 stars and 400+ reviews on Amazon so it’s probably a safe bet. Theirs has attachments for a drill, sander, jigsaw, oscillating tool, router, and impact driver all in the base kit. You can also get a trim saw or a reciprocating saw. I use the heck out of the drill, trim saw, and sander on mine. It’s definitely not going to replace a serious router or circular saw, but it’s great for quick and dirty projects or anyone who has limited space or budget.
This is a low-profile, lightweight but high-powered LED light that’s designed to be mounted to a camera, but really versatile in how it can be used. I’m a novice when it comes to photography and video, but I’ve been researching and starting to up my game when it comes to documenting my work. This light is inexpensive, and you can attach it not only to a camera, but also a light stand or tripod, it has adjustable brightness, color temperature, for tungsten or daylight, and it can be powered with AC power or a rechargeable battery. Adam Savage used a very similar LED panel to build a custom shop light. One piece of advice: it doesn’t come with power supply, battery or charger so shop around for a good deal on one.

It currently lets users create the computer keyboard float and move it on the screen. Together with the floating keyboard attribute, tapping the Gboard’s G icon will fetch you the newest Floating option. To remember, an APK teardown of the previous version of this program in September had discovered it to be planning to deliver the brand new floating keyboard along with a lot of new capabilities. It now appears to be accessible for many Android users. Meanwhile, an APK teardown of the most recent Gboard app variant has individually hinted at a few upcoming features. For the time being, there isn’t any information about if this operation will strike Gboard to get iOS, in any respect.
The floating keyboard could be put anywhere on the display and may be resized or even employed for swipe scrolling. Further, tap the brand new Floating option. At this time, you’ll have the ability to drag the keyboard around by dragging and tapping it. Interestingly, on leaving the computer keyboard untouched, it seems translucent and reveals the program behind it.
It’s worth noting that the Gboard’s changelog on the Google Play Store doesn’t mention that the floating keyboard attribute, however, Protechos managed to get it on some handsets. If you’re still not getting the choice however, be constantly aware that Google may roll it out to Android devices shortly. The report asserts there are 47 improvements to this record, such as those inserted in previous releases.
Meanwhile, the version 7.6 of all Gboard has shown a range of attributes are under development. People at Android Police have decompiled the APK to view a few lines of code which hint at potential forthcoming features. It hints at approaching Halloween GIFs along with new languages. The report claims that Gboard will be including a class for Halloween GIFs before the festival.
It is possible to download the APK file of the most recent program (v7.6.7.213180289-beta) out of APK Mirror to go through the new Gboard program attributes. Meanwhile, there is not any certainty when we can observe the attributes discovered via the APK teardown.

I am a life-long creative producer, entrepreneur, mother, grandmother and am proudly (sometimes obnoxiously so) Brooklyn born and bred.
I received my initial coach training from Wellcoaches School of Coaching and am a Wellcoaches® Certified Personal Coach. Wellcoaches founded the first coaching school for health & wellness professionals in collaboration with the American College of Sports Medicine. The Wellcoaches method is cutting edge and sets the gold standard for high impact, evidence-based training and education. The program is accredited by the International Coaching Federation.
As a Producer, I have always been fascinated with the dynamics and organizational strategies that must be at play to create the best possible outcomes both at work and at home. It is this fascination that fuels my work in Real Estate and fueled the creation of LGM Events, the lifestyle management and special events company I founded in 2002. Under its banner I created and managed special projects for a discerning high-profile clientele of private individuals and non-profit organizations. My work garnered me a reputation for delivering a highly professional, discreet, client-centered service. Whether producing a special event, managing a personal special project, marketing or identifying a residential property, it’s my unique approach to the work that clients respect: a mindful balance of creative thinking and logistical skill, and an unwavering commitment to working joyfully.

Prior to founding LGM Events, I was Manager of Entertainment for MZA Events.

My work identifying and soliciting participation from key celebrities among whom were Madonna, Whitney Houston, Susan Sarandon, Matthew Broderick and Queen Latifah helped to develop the brand of the AIDS Walk around the country.
My work in media and entertainment began more than 10 years prior as the Director’s Representative for noted music video and film director, Hype Williams at Big Dog Films. At Big Dog, I was the liaison with record labels brokering music videos for high-profile music acts including Notorious B.I.G and Brandy. My career in the entertainment industry includes production work on nearly 100 music videos and feature films including New Line Cinema’s, Above The Rim and Columbia Pictures’, I Like It Like That. In 2005, I had the distinct honor of working with my grandfather, documentarian William Greaves along with Steve Buscemi on Symbiopyschotaxiplasm: Take 2, the follow-up to the critically-acclaimed Symbiopyschotaxiplasm: Take 1 by William Greaves.
I hold a BA in English from Brooklyn College and an AA in Media Arts from Sullivan County Community College.

The MPEG4 & H.264 are the two mainly popular video compression formats for digital video clip recorders. Nevertheless, you need to make distinct the distinction of these two formats: MPEG4 (great for local storage) V.S. H.264 (Community transmission, distant access needed). Nevertheless, individually, I suggest on H.264, which is extensively utilized with distant access control.
I would appear at how you can do all of the safety in a very simple to use integrated way. So that you can pull in the intrusion, video and access control together as a lot as possible.

We have secured a resolution to approve planning permission for a major redevelopment of the world-famous Headingley Carnegie Stadium in Leeds. The scheme includes a new South Stand for the rugby and a new shared Main Stand for the cricket and rugby.
The new stands provide a significant improvement in spectator and media facilities for both the rugby and cricket and represent a major investment in the stadium by both clubs. The approved cricket stand includes facilities required to maintain the stadium’s category A status, so that it can continue to attract international matches in the future and secure the significant economic benefits that this brings to the region. On the rugby side, once the redevelopment is complete, Leeds Rugby will be in a strong position to compete with other grounds to host World Cup Rugby matches. The improvements also support the businesses to continue to grow and strengthen their community role through the important work carried out by their Foundations.
The Headingley Carnegie Stadium is home to Yorkshire County Cricket Club, the Leeds Rhinos Rugby League, and Leeds Carnegie Rugby Union.

While the best source of essential nutrients is a healthy and balanced diet, it’s not always easy for women to eat just the right amount of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats on a daily basis. It’s no wonder that so many women choose to take health supplements.
Depending on your diet, lifestyle, routine, and life stage, some supplements will hold distinct advantages over others. However, there are a few that stand out as priorities for helping a woman’s body function optimally.
Vitamin D contributes to multiple functions in the body, from strong bones to a healthy immune system. However, probably one of vitamin D’s most important effects for women is on cardiovascular function. Research has found that people with low blood levels of vitamin D are more likely to have strokes, heart attacks, heart failure, or high blood pressure later in life. For pregnant women, low vitamin D levels are associated with preeclampsia and other unfavorable outcomes. A similar association is seen between a low vitamin D level and development of diabetes.
Your body can make adequate vitamin D if your skin is exposed to enough sunlight, specifically ultraviolet B (UVB) rays. However, one study found that 36% of healthy adolescents and 57% of adults in the U.S. had insufficient levels of vitamin D.
It’s not easy to maintain sufficient levels of Vitamin D given our modern diet and lifestyle. These days, many people are spending fewer hours outside. In urban and polluted areas, UVB light gets filtered out, so even though you may be getting sun exposure, your skin may not be getting enough UVB light. Furthermore, to protect against skin cancer, we often apply sunscreen whenever we do get sun exposure. When properly applied, sunscreen reduces our ability to absorb vitamin D by more than 90%.
Other factors that can contribute to vitamin D deficiency are obesity, darker skin color, and problems absorbing fat (e.g., gluten, infections, or toxins could be causing an intestinal problem like “leaky gut”).
Being out in the sun for 20 minutes every day, if you aren’t wearing sunscreen or do not have a dark skin color, can help your body make enough vitamin D. You can also get vitamin D from egg yolks, fatty fish (like salmon), and organ meat (like beef liver). In addition, breakfast cereal and milk are often artificially fortified with vitamin D.
The Endocrine Society, a leading endocrine research organization, recommends a vitamin D blood level of 30 ng/mL as a minimum and, if levels are below that, a daily supplement of 1500 to 2000 IU. Due to widespread deficiencies, it is wise to ask your doctor to check your 25-hydroxyvitamin D level, so you know how much vitamin D you should actually take.
Which type of vitamin D makes the best supplement?
Although five types of vitamin D exist, the body primarily uses vitamin D2 (also called ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). In order to be absorbed, the body must first convert both forms of the vitamin. Because vitamin D3 undergoes this process more quickly and effectively than vitamin D2, it is the preferred variant.
California Gold Nutrition offers Vitamin D3 gummies, which are organic and vegetarian. They come in a convenient serving size for dosing with 2 gummies providing 2000 IU.
Curcumin is known for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties. This is of particular interest to women because as their estrogen levels decline with aging, they are more susceptible to problems due to inflammation. Chronic inflammation is associated with diseases like cancer, diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer’s.
Curcumin is a component of the spice known as turmeric. However, the curcumin content of turmeric is only about 3% by weight. So it is difficult to achieve effective anti-inflammatory levels simply by adding turmeric to food. Furthermore, curcumin is poorly absorbed in the bloodstream when consumed on its own. However, taking curcumin with piperine (a substance found in black pepper) greatly enhances its absorption.
For optimal effectiveness, look for curcumin products that include piperine, such as California Gold Nutrition’s Curcumin C3 Complex.
Fish oil is a potent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which can also reduce inflammation. Omega-3s are also associated with improved mood and memory and decreased risks of depression and dementia. Research has demonstrated all of these benefits with two specific types of omega 3s—EPA and DHA.
In the case of omega-3 intake, you might consider it better to opt for fish oil supplements as opposed to eating adequate amounts of fish due to concerns over mercury content in the latter. When choosing a fish oil, be sure to opt for fish sources that have been tested and shown to be free of mercury and other toxic components. California Gold Nutrition’s Omega 800 product contains both EPA and DHA, and exclusively uses a fish oil concentrate that has earned the coveted 5-star rating of the International Fish Oil Standards for quality, safety, and potency.

I love semantic-release and use it for every one of my own NPM packages. I do not publish a new version to NPM from local box. Instead, the CI publishes a new version but only if the tests pass and there are changes to publish. CI determines if there are changes (and what the version bump should be) based on commit messages. There are several conventions, but I follow the simplest one from simple-commit-message.
If there is a commit with patch: something ... or fix: something - the 3rd number z in the version's triple x.y.z should be incremented by one.
If a commit has form feat: .... or minor: ... then the second number is incremented.
If there are multiple commits, the largest one wins.
Usually I push every 1-2 commits to the master, releasing new versions often. Thanks to gitub-post-release plugin, every published NPM version gets a corresponding GitHub release with nice release summary.
Any issue closed by the commits as part of the release also gets a comment to notify users that the new version that solves the issue has been published.
I love love love semantic-release. I even created my own Yeoman generator for Node projects that has yo node-bahmutov:release command. It runs semantic-release-cli setup and installs my own release plugins I often need. Overall, I almost never think about the publishing mechanics, instead I spend time thinking about what the roadmap should be, what features to implement and in what order they should be released. The NPM release is just shipping and handling - it just happens.
Yet I found myself limited by what semantic-release can do. Partly because the project itself has been dormant (hope we can reinvigorate it with Gregor and Hutson), but partly because it is really closely tied to TravisCI, GitHub and NPM registry.
What I really want to do is to drive any action based on semantic analysis of commit messages. Not everything we do is a new NPM module version; often we need to deploy a static website or a server. To do this we need to make semantic-release a little more generic. So I forked it into semantic-action to freely experiment and change - the beauty of open source is that it freely allows everyone to play and adapt other projects to your needs.
Any automation is a replacement for a manual step. So what do we do manually that might benefit from semantic-action? The simplest thing that I often do is publishing a static Hexo blog, just like this one. See this repo test-semantic-action for the source code for the simplest case; it is deployed to GitHub static pages hosted at https://glebbahmutov.com/test-semantic-deploy/.
You can see the deploy command in the .circleci/config.yml executed on CircleCI.
"semantic-deploy": "semantic-action pre && npm run deploy && semantic-action post"
Notice the "pre" and "post" scripts - they are controlled by semantic-action and can be customized by using plugins.
The "pre" step looks at the environment and tries to decide if a semantic action is necessary. Usually the "pre" step will halt if the environment variable CI is undefined - forcing us to only run this action on the continuous integration server. The original semantic-release also looks for NPM_TOKEN and GH_TOKEN environment variables, because it assumes we are going to publish to NPM registry and upload the release notes on GitHub. My semantic-action removes this check, because we are not necessarily publishing to NPM, and if there is such action, the action itself would check.
"postgenerate": "git-last -f public/build.json && cat public/build.json"
I find having such easy way to see what I have deployed that most of my servers have version-middleware installed.
List of commits since the last action commit SHA. This is pretty standard and just uses Git command.
Between "pre" and "post" lies the real action. The command could be anything - npm publish, hexo deploy, immutable deploy using now, git push [email protected] - any command that you execute manually is fair game for automation. Could be even a very simple tedious task - create a tag in the repo to mark when specific feature or fix commit was pushed.
The "post" step is for running tasks after semantic action has happened. For example we might want to upload other artifacts to storage or to Docker Hub, or push a new tag, or send an email, or post a GIF to a Slack channel.
In the coming months I hope to have a flexible declarative way (all via a JSON object in the package.json file) to execute arbitrary deployment actions based on commits and files affected by these commits. For example for larger monorepos we might want to deploy static documentation but only if the semantic commits have touched files in the docs folder.

For some reason, I found the street coffins interesting (and they were near our hotel), so I went to talk to them. The wood coffin goes for $45,000 franks (about $45), while the purple one is $35,000. For an extra $15,000 franks they will also bury you.
We had no problems on this leg of the trip, other than our bodies banging around in the car from all the deep ruts in the road.

"Jesus is a redeemer, a restorer in every way. His day on the Cross looked like a colossal failure, but it was his finest moment. He launched a kingdom where the least will be the greatest and the last will be first, where the poor will be comforted and the meek will inherit the earth. Jesus brought together the homeless with the privileged and said, "You're all poor, and you're all beautiful." The cross leveled the playing field, and no earthly distinction is valid anymore. There is a new "us"—people rescued by the Passover Lamb, adopted into the family and transformed into saints. It is the most epic miracle in history.
That is why we celebrate. May we never become so enamored by the substitutions of this world that we forget."

After recently losing my 55 gal planted tank i have decided to venture in to a saltwater reef tank setup has only been running for about a week. Any advice and tips would be great. I know the advice here will be just as plentiful as on the fresh planted side.
Nice looking scape! As to tips and advice, most of us could spend hours spouting different things... was there anything a bit more specific you were wondering about?
Ae for right now im just waiting on the tank to cycle . Its been up for a wk now andnsitting on .25 amonia 9 trites and trates for the last five days. I have 44lb of LR and 20lb of LS. What is thw usual amount of time before you start to see a spike in trites and trates. I gusse my only other question is what would be a good cleaner crew for this size tank.
With 0 on both trites and trates means 0 bacteria. Did you put a raw shrimp to start with? May need another week before you see some sign of spike and you can turn off your light for now and do not use any filter. You should have seed the tank with at least a few pounds of cured LR.
Another question just hit the biocube uses 2 36w PCF one actinc and one 10k is this going to be enought to grow corals when the time comes or should i start planning for a retrofit.
I would say just just a little bit more patience.
That's exactly the same light I had on my 29 gal bio cube. They are pretty strong and just watch out for the white cause you will expect algae bloom if you turn it on for too long. It can support sps but quite expensive in the long run since you have to replace the bulbs within a year. I now use LED fixture.

Since its founding, in 2005, the Juventas New Music Ensemble has gone well beyond the typical performance activities of Boston-based contemporary-music ensembles. Led by conductor and artistic director Lidiya Yankovskaya, they have, in addition to premiering a multitude of works by emerging composers, produced a number of full-length staged works, garnering the American Prize and two awards from the National Opera Association for their recent operatic productions.
Some excerpts from HackPolitik were previewed in a Juventas concert last December, reviewed by BMInt here. The final production boasts a far larger cast of dancers, full costuming and digital set design, and interactive video augmenting the dancers’ performance.
BMInt: How did this piece come about?
PVZL: I have wanted to compose a ballet for quite a while now, since so much of my favorite orchestral music growing up was originally intended for dance. When I decided to pursue composition fulltime, a lot of elements of neoclassical ballet music had influence. I have wanted to get back to those roots, and finishing graduate school seemed like a good time to take on this project. I was lucky to find a willing collaborator in Lidiya, who quickly set me up with choreographer Kate Ladenheim to start generating material. I composed a few scenes for the December 2012 preview, and Kate did some choreography. I spent much of the following spring at Yaddo and MacDowell arts colonies composing the rest of the piece and corresponding with Kate as the music came out.
Kate, what drew you to this collaboration?
KL: I really liked Peter’s past music: I found it really kinetic, nuanced, and interesting. I was also intrigued by the subject matter. When I was first approached to make a dance about computer hackers, I was a bit overwhelmed and skeptical of whether it would work; I usually pick themes that are more directly movement-based. However, I knew that it would challenge me and hoped it would open me up to a world that I had never explored before.
PVZL: One of the things that really got me excited about this concept was that all of the action in this story occurs online. Since none of it has physical form, I thought it would be a lot of fun to figure out ways to represent things like social networks and cyberattacks. It’s been exciting for me to see how Kate has tackled some of these intense challenges. Originally I figured we’d really be able to communicate only a faint outline of the story, and would have to focus more on personality. But I think a lot of subtlety is coming through the ballet, much more than I originally anticipated.
I expect this isn’t ballet in the traditional sense. What styles of dance are you working with?
KL: Describing what I do is always hard, especially because contemporary dance is an umbrella term that covers everything from contemporary ballet to performance art—anything from highly stylized and technical forms to ultra-pedestrian movements to site-specific work to work that incorporates speech. This piece is definitely a ballet in that it’s a collaborative work of music and dance that follows a narrative and the story is told through music and movement. However, “ballet” suggests that the work is classical, which this certainly is not. I had a lot of classical training and I do love the style, the technique, the discipline of it—but I have moved away from such a strict vocabulary in favor of forms that allow for more freedom of expression. I don’t really think that classical vocabulary would lend itself to successfully demonstrating the online world of Anonymous.
The work I create is somewhere in the middle of that spectrum—we are all highly trained, athletic, and technical. My movement vocabulary draws from contemporary forms such as Gaga technique, Forsythe improvisation techniques, contact improvisation, and release technique as well as classical ballet—but my work does not strictly follow any one of those. It works for the nature of this piece because Anonymous, as I see it, is like that too, a nebula of many different philosophies that together create this catalyst for forward motion.
Why this topic? Cyberactivism seems a far cry from, say, Stravinsky’s subject matter.
PVZL: True. One of the points the reviewer made of the preview performance last year was that basing a ballet on a hot-button issue like the hacktivist group Anonymous was an attempt to keep ballet relevant to contemporary audiences. If more people are interested because of the topic, then great. But I chose this topic because I saw a correlation between how I as a composer use technology to augment the possibilities of traditional instruments and how cyberactivists use technology to augment their methods of political dissidence.
The preview concert was more or less character studies of some of the main players in HackPolitik. The rest of the piece conveys two politically driven (one personally driven) cyberattacks carried out by these characters. We start to see the egos of the characters override their agenda of averting power hierarchies, which leads everyone to a classically tragic end. There’s a lot about personality in there, which is where we can really connect musical ideas to the story.
How about creating dance that connects to these musical ideas?
KL: I like working with Peter’s music because it’s very driving, but there is also so much nuance and subtlety to play with. For this piece in particular, the music really allowed me to dive into each character—Sabu, Kayla, and Topiary all had specific instruments and themes that really allowed for their specific personalities to emerge—and keep developing as the piece moved on. Each character has a set of thematic movements and gestures that defines who they are; these were developed through the character’s relationships, spatial patterns, and musical context. The music also sets up this order/chaos dichotomy that characterizes the online world and Anonymous as a whole. The online world (and social media in particular) is very noisy. The things that emerge as most important are the ones that the group can coalesce around; you can definitely hear this in the music.
I’ve also really enjoyed working with the electronic manipulation of the live instruments. I think having the electronic component being a part of the orchestra itself is important thematically for this piece. Also it gives us some really interesting sounds and textures to work with for our movement vocabulary.
It sounds like the collaboration has been fulfilling for you both, so will you continue to collaborate after the Boston premieres?
KL: I certainly don’t want the premiere to be the end of HackPolitik. As a Brooklyn-based company, we are working towards a New York production, so that we can engage our local audience as well. I’ve been in discussions with arts presenters in other cities as well. I really like to generate enough funding to tour the piece; my big dreams include international touring.
PVZL: Yes, we’re really hoping to take this piece to New York sometime next year. It would give us the opportunity to perform the piece on the dance company’s home turf, as well as revisit our work and find places to improve. As for now, we’re in full-on rehearsal mode, and will be very busy until the premiere!
HackPolitik will be premiered by Juventas New Music Ensemble and the People Movers Contemporary Dance at the Boston University Dance Theater on November 15 and 16 at 8pm. Tickets are available here.

The Sacrament of Baptism is the first Sacrament of Initiation, often referred to as the “door Sacrament.” It begins our journey of faith in the church. Attendance at a Baptism class is required for first time parents. It provides the couples with a review of the Sacraments and an opportunity to gain knowledge of their responsibility to raise their children in the Catholic faith and how the church will support them on this journey.
The class is offered once a month on the last Sunday of the month at 2pm in the church and parish office. Information is given on the particulars of the Sacrament, selection of sponsors, questions get answered and the couples are taken to the church for a “dry run” and explanation of the ceremony and its symbols.
Baptisms are scheduled on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month after the 11:30 A.M. Sunday Mass. (November and December 2015 are exceptions and will have Baptisms on the first and second Sundays of the month.) Sometimes couples are from out of town and have no family around. They may receive permission from Saint Thomas More to have their baby baptized elsewhere. Same is true for out-of-towners who have all their family here. We welcome them back! Exceptions are handled as the need arises.
Parents have a choice of how the child is baptized. Traditional (pouring of water over the child) or Immersion (carried through the water in the font). (Remember it is immersion, not submersion!) Parents are encouraged to call the parish before the child is born to give the necessary information for paper work and to sign up for the class. If the child is already born the same process takes place. Please call the parish office to make the necessary arrangements.
SPONSORS FOR BAPTISM — What is required for a person to serve as a godparent (sponsor)?
Be a Catholic who has been confirmed and received the Most Holy Eucharist and who leads a life in harmony with the Church.
If married, be in a valid sacramental marriage.
May we choose more than two godparents (sponsors) for our baby? May we use two godfathers in place of a godmother?
A maximum of two godparents (sponsors) is allowed for the sacrament of baptism. Only one godparent (sponsor) is required for baptism; however it is customary to have two godparents (sponsors). If two godparents (sponsors) are identified, one must be male and the other female.
May a non-Catholic Christian serve as godparent (sponsor) at a Catholic baptism?
A non-Catholic Christian may only be a witness, together with a Catholic godparent (sponsor), in a Catholic baptism. A former Catholic who now practices another religion may not serve as a Christian Witness nor as a godparent (sponsor). Any questions concerning non-Catholic participation in baptism should be referred to the parish.
If you plan on having your child baptized, please pick up a Baptism Packet at the parish office, or view the baptism resources on this page.
Adults who have not been Baptized and wish to find our more can find out more from our RCIA program. View their resources here.

We regret to report that the country’s first NRC licensed consolidated interim storage facility planned for the Goshute reservation in Skull Valley, Utah, by Private Fuel Storage, LLC (PFS, LLC) has ceased due to opposition from the Department of Interior. PFS, LLC, an entrepreneurial group consisting of eight utilities in February 2006, secured a hard won approval from the NRC to build an autonomous consolidated interim storage facility comprised of up to 4,000 HI-STORM 100 systems, capable of storing a total of 40,000 tons of uranium. During the licensing process (1997-2006), the state of Utah litigated PFS’s application before the NRC and following approval in 2006, appealed NRC licensing decisions to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals.
The resulting ASLB proceedings (ca. 2001-2005) were a spectacular success for PFS, LLC. The three panel Board agreed that the HI-STORMs buttressed steel and concrete cylindrical construction will maintain complete radiological confinement if struck by an F-16 aircraft laden with 1,100 gallons of fuel. The Board also ruled that the freestanding HI-STORMs will remain stable under a 10,000-year return earthquake postulated for the Skull Valley site. As a point of comparison, Fukushima, like most plants, was reportedly qualified for a 100-year earthquake.
Despite the NRC granted license and subsequent affirmation of the reliability of the dry storage system by the nation’s highest nuclear board, the Skull Valley project died on December 21, 2012 when PFS, LLC withdrew their unused license in the face of implacable opposition from the Department of Interior, who refused to give transit passage to the railcars bearing HI-STAR off-site transport casks since the transport casks would need to pass over Indian lands overseen by the Department on the way to Skull Valley.
Over the past decade, since helping secure the license for Skull Valley, Holtec has moved on to develop a belowground version of HI-STORM; ushering in a storage technology that is orders of magnitude more resistant to missiles, aircraft, earthquakes, and other calamitous events than the aboveground counterpart certified by the NRC and approved by the ASLB. As the public becomes educated in the physical ruggedness and assured safety of the underground HI-STORM technology, perhaps the new HI-STORM CIS sites will hopefully be met with a hospitable political environment for the sake of our country’s beleaguered used fuel management program.

Quinoa was the sacred crop of the Incas, the uber-tasty, nutritious super-grain that powered the greatest empire South America has ever seen. It’s been recognised as a superfood by NASA, who champion quinoa as a key food source for deep space missions.
Quinoa is a complete protein as it contains all nine essential amino acids your body needs, that need to be ingested as your body can’t manufacture them as with other non-essential amino acids.
Thanks to its Low Glycemic Index, Quinoa helps improve the blood sugar levels and helps lower cholesterol. Quinoa also reduces cravings and help you watch your waistline.
Quinoa is gluten and cholesterol free, it is a complete vegetable protein. Quinoa contains slow release carbs, they are the good type of carbs that helps you feel satiated for longer. And all that fibre and lack of gluten will do wonders for your digestion.
We pride ourselves on sourcing and producing the finest quinoa-based products available. It started with a three-year quest in Peru, searching for the finest quinoa there is, and once we found it, we dedicated ourselves solely to the production of premium quinoa products.
There are about 500 smallholder farmers that form the Coopain Cabana cooperative. They cultivate fields up at 4000m in some pretty harsh conditions, just north of Lake Titicaca in southern Peru. We have also just started working with a second cooperative in the poorest area of Peru in Andahualyas, where over 200 small hold farmers have formed the CAGMA cooperative.
HOW IS THE QUINOA GROWN?
No chemical nasties or fossil fuel fertilizers are used in our quinoa production, and we go further than that, as we believe that sustainability is as important as organic certification. That is why all our farmers practice mixed agriculture and crop rotation and allow the fragile land to regenerate via fallow periods.
The cooperatives help their members beyond buying in their crops at above market prices. By obliging farmers to have warehouses, they ensure that the harvests are sold into the cooperative across a period, avoiding the dangers and pressures of selling all the production in one go. Communal land is equitably distributed to ensure that all families, regardless of their private holdings, have access to sufficient land. This ensures that all farmers can live off the land and do not become migrant labour, the scourge of many developing nations.
Our Coopain Cabana cooperative has set up a microcredit scheme, as well. Though they would like to have more capital in the fund (something we are working with them on), it is an important first step away from the usury of moneylenders that prey on the poor. With the security of the crops as collateral, the cooperative can lend small amounts to allow farmers to seed more land or meet short-term expenditure. This lady is borrowing $60 to get her cataracts removed.
Our French quinoa is the only true variety of the whole grain quinoa on the market at the moment. With almost double the fibre of your average quinoa, this whole grain has less fat and less salt than standard quinoa. Full of minerals and gluten-free, this quinoa is especially rich in iron and magnesium.
Our Wholegrain Quinoa is grown in France, in the Loire Valley. The whole adventure started eleven years ago when Jason Abbot embarked on the challenge of growing Peru’s ancient mothergrain in his family’s country: La France. It's been a long process but Jason managed to develop several saponin free quinoa varieties suitable for the French climate.
Environmentally, our made in France quinoa is almost perfect. When we say ‘almost’, its slightly unfair because it would be nigh on impossible for the quinoa to actually grow enough to be harvested without one round of treatment with pesticide. Essentially, aphids who would eat the crop are around before their predators (ladybirds), which means that without using pesticides to keep them off, there simply wouldn’t be any quinoa crop left. Our quinoa d’Anjou is treated with just one round of pesticide, compared to conventional use which is 7 or 8 rounds, and we can assure you there is no pesticide residue in our grains.

There are many houses who have got mold on the walls and this could certainly affect the entire state of the house, along with the health of whoever lives there. Thus, you would ever guess how important it's for you to go ahead with removing the mold spores quickly and properly from every wall and other surface where it's been determined. Nevertheless, not totally all forms of mold can be obvious and it is therefore essential that you proceed with using mold screening products or having the specialists check the surfaces for you. This way, you are able to be assured that nothing stays inside your property’s walls.

On 14 December 2017, the United States Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") voted to repeal the net neutrality regulations set in place during the Obama administration in 2015 ("2015 Regulations").
Net neutrality generally refers to network providers treating all sources of Internet content equally as well as consumers’ rights to access content and services on the Internet on a non-discriminatory basis. Generally, this means that Internet Service Providers ("ISPs") should not be allowed to block legal content of a consumer’s choice, throttle legal internet traffic to slower speeds or sell “fast lane” services to content providers who can pay more than others. Effectively, net neutrality seemingly creates a more level playing field for businesses.
This Update provides a summary of the changes to the United States' position on net neutrality, followed by our comments on the potential impact of the FCC decision to the net neutrality policies in certain parts of South-East Asia.

I use this on my bike, my car, and my scooter. All I do was walk up to the car and it instantly starts reading my battery voltage. It works perfectly. Just passing on a nice mod, and adding a little content here.
Looks good. Its currently unavailble but I guess I can get it from Aliexpress or something similar.
I think they moved it to a new location on Amazon. It claims “Ultra-low power consumption, average current: 1.0 mA” and also “Alert users if charge is low” Since it is hooked directly to the battery it is on all of the time.

April 20, 2017 at 9:01 am EDT | by Lou Chibbaro Jr.
Organizers of a planned LGBT march on Washington scheduled for June 11, which has been named The Equality March for Unity and Pride, released on Wednesday the names of 12 of 13 co-chairs of the event but provided few additional details such as how it will be financed or the route of the march.
“The Equality March for Unity and Pride is less than two months away and we are thrilled to host this historic march in our nation’s capital,” a statement released by organizers says.
“Permits are being worked on, sponsors are being engaged, the website is forthcoming, and just this week we selected 12 of 13 National Co-Chairs!” the statement says. “This national group of diverse leaders in the LGBTQIA+ liberation movements will help shape the mission and vision of the march by elevating voices of those most underserved,” it says.
Among those named as co-chairs are Anika Simpson, Ph.D, founding coordinator of the Women’s and Gender Studies Program at Morgan State University, one of the nation’s historic black colleges; Ashley Smith, an official with the Capital Pride Alliance and a Human Rights Campaign Foundation board member; Catalina Velasquez, a widely recognized LGBT immigrant rights advocate and Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships and Communications for D.C.’s Casa Ruby community services center; and Jose L. Plaza, president of the D.C.-based Latino GLBT History Project.
Also named as one of the co-chairs is David Bruinooge, the New York City LGBT rights advocate who initiated the June 11 march through a Facebook posting in January that quickly drew thousands of messages of support for the idea of an LGBT march on the nation’s capital similar to the women’s march held the day following President Trump’s Inauguration.
The announcement on Wednesday of the names of the co-chairs and assurances that more details of the march would be disclosed soon came at a time when messages have surfaced on social media expressing concern that so few details of the event had been disclosed less than two months before the march was to take place.
Some Facebook postings have asked whether the march would actually happen and whether people who have made airline reservations to come to Washington should cancel them. Others expressed concern that as of this week no money had been raised to help pay for an event of this scale.
“There’s still plenty of time,” said D.C. gay activist Peter Rosenstein, who has been serving as a volunteer on a march planning committee prior to the selection of the co-chairs. “It’s all being worked out. The permits are in the works and the route will be decided on in a few weeks,” he said.
An application for a permit for the march submitted on March 10 to the National Park Service of the National Capital Region by Bruinooge, which the Park Service released to the Washington Blade, calls for two possible routes for the march.
One calls for participants to assemble on the National Mall between 3rd and 7th Streets, N.W. and for participants to disperse at that same location but doesn’t say whether or where the march would travel.
Bruinooge told the Blade the march route is still under discussion among organizers and that he would be consulting with National Park Service officials and D.C. police to determine which areas of the National Mall and other locations will be available and best suited for the planned march.
The march is set to take place on the same day as D.C.’s annual Capital Pride Festival, which takes place on Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. between 3rd Street, near the U.S. Capitol, and 7th St. The June 11 march would also take place one day after D.C.’s annual Capital Pride Parade, which usually travels from the Dupont Circle area past the 17th Street, N.W. commercial area to 14th and R St., N.W.
Ryan Bos, executive director of the Capital Pride Alliance, which organizes the Capital Pride events, said the group is cooperating with organizers of the Equality March for Unity and Pride but would not serve as the fiscal agent for the march.
Bos said no one associated with the march has approached Capital Pride Alliance about using the large stage near the Capitol that Capital Pride sets up each year to be used for political speeches associated with the march. March organizers, meanwhile, have not disclosed whether they plan to set up their own stage and sound system for speeches associated with the march.
In recent years, Capital Pride has shunned political speeches at the annual festival and has used two separate stages largely for musical entertainment, including performances by nationally known singers.
In the statement released on Wednesday, march organizers point out that the Washington march will be accompanied by numerous “solidarity” marches and events throughout the country and internationally.
The June 11 march would become the sixth national march on Washington for LGBT equality since the first national “gay” march was held in 1979. Subsequent LGBT marches on Washington took place in 1987, 1993, 2000, and 2009.

Nicole Ramirez has made a living off Harvey Milk’s name. He is among those who believe Harvey’s name should be on everything. There were many unsung hero’s who never are recognized for their contributions to the gay rights movement.
Back in 2009, I had friends calling me to see if I could host them for the March. This time around no one has called and a couple of them told me they were unaware of it. Maybe the event publicity isn’t focused on gay people and more so on all of the other letters?
Whatever happened to the days when people were appointed to a board or committee because of what they could actually do?

The Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) has introduced Key Information Sets (KIS) which are designed to be directly comparable sets of information about all full and part time undergraduate courses in all English Universities. They are designed to meet the information needs of prospective students trying to compare different courses from different Ins titutions.
Current programme specifications can be found here.
Information and advice about finance, welfare, academic progress and a range of other issues.
The Scheme for the Award of Honours (SAH) is the official document that tells you what modules are being taught this year, which are done by which students, and that outlines how degree marks are calculated. If you are not sure what modules you should be taking, this is the place to start.
These competence standards highlight the core skills students should be able to demonstrate by the end of their programme of study in the Earth Science & Engineering Department. In addition to these competence standards all students will be expected to meet the basic academic competence standards contained within the admissions policy for their programme of study.
ESESIS provides all the practical details of each module that you will normally need, but the formal module descriptions held by college are provided here for completeness.
ESE is well known around the College for its lively student and staff feedback. Feedback is ongoing; it happens during practical classes, in workshops, in lectures, on fieldwork, while meeting with your tutor and in tutorials and in almost any port of your learning. You often do not notice you are getting feedback. Click here to access our feedback system - SOLE.
We also have a staff student forum where we discuss the teaching provision for undergraduates to promote excellence in all areas. You can find out more about it here.

We are fully aware that times are tough for undergraduate students. Various funding schemes are available for prospective and current undergraduate students to assist them through their studies. The awards available may change and we advise you to check this list frequently. Students will normally be emailed prior to relevant deadlines.
The department awards a number of prizes and scholarships at the end of each academic year. Students are eligible for these prizes and scholarships once they have completed their first year and are informed of their award after the release of examination results at the end of June.
That means that you do not have to pay to get to your field trips, or pay expenses such as accommodation.
*All field trips in the undergraduate degrees are included in the cost of tuition, except for a contribution to food costs on fully catered trips (currently approx. £25/week) and the Year 2 independent mapping project which Geology students and some Geology and Geophysics students undertake in a location of their choice. Costs vary by location.
Rio Tinto will fund the first year geosciences fieldtrip to Almeria, Southern Spain, which specifically develops observational and practical skills for all first year undergraduate students.
Students who are undertaking fieldwork, and who prove financial need in March each year, are normally supported by the Douglas Shearman fund. The amount of the award is variable. Students will be contacted about this fund in Spring.
A letter from the Applicant outlining their interest in a career in the mining industry.
A letter from the student’s Personal Tutor/Academic Tutor supporting the application and providing documentation of pass marks and suitable attendance.
Available to all science and maths undergraduates. Students apply in first year for an annual award of £5000 per year for three years. BP scholarships are administered through the Faculty of Engineering.
Open to all Earth Sciences students. The fund is designed to give fi nancial assistance – a single award of £2000 cash annually – to a deserving undergraduate in their second, third or fourth year at university, studying Geology or Earth Sciences.The award will be made by the Council of the Geologists’ Association to the student they feel best demonstrates both a genuine commitment to the discipline and academic excellence.Nominations are made by university departments by invitation. Applications are via the Academic Tutor, by 15th November annually.
Open to all Earth Sciences students, the Geological Society provide undergraduate fieldwork and research bursary opportunities. Apply by 1st February 2015 through the Geological Society of London.

Topics related to the petroleum industry will be particularly favoured. Proposals for work in other topics will not be considered. Preference will be given to Candidate Fellows of the Society.
What is UROP? UROP provides an opportunity for students who have yet to graduate from their degree to participate in real research. The express purpose is for the participant to acquire experience of the research undertaken by a particular member of staff or research group by either undertaking a project or developing technical skills.
The Department of Earth Science and Engineering will provide around 10 bursaries of up to £800 each during the summer. Some of these may be substituted by the Faculty of Engineering [FOE] or other College funding as it becomes available during the year. There are other forms of funding – please see below. Read some of the very helpful information on the College website about the scheme.
Who is eligible? Undergraduate students of all years in the Department of Earth Science and Engineering are invited to apply for a bursary. This includes students who are to graduate in the same summer as doing the UROP. In the event of more applicants than funding, students who are non-graduates in the same summer as doing the UROP will be given priority.
How do you find a project? You need to approach a member of staff that you think you would be interested in working with. You can also look on the College website where individual staff sometimes put projects that they are offering. This website also gives you ideas to think about when you start to look for a project.
Applications for an individual bursary are invited from a student who is a registered as an undergraduate student of Imperial College at the time of application and whose proposed project placement lasts at least 4 weeks (full-time).
Projects are typically 4, 6, or 8 weeks. 10 weeks is exceptional in ESE.
The bursary will normally be disbursed to the participating student at the end of every four weeks during the placement.
All students complete the same form found here. Please ensure you get the supervisor's signature on the form. For 4 week bursaries please send your application only to Shane Young. For 4 to 10 week bursaries please send your application to both the College and to Shane Young.
Occasionally your supervisor will assist you in applying for funding from external sources.

Your immune system is an incredible combination of cells and organs that work non-stop to keep infection from attacking your body. When it comes to avoiding macular degeneration, stoking the fires of this powerhouse could reap vision benefits all around. However, if your immune system is working too hard it may be compromised to the point of being unable to protect you the way it should. This can tax various parts of your health and over time symptoms may unexpectedly arise. From an annoying cough to pneumonia to developing sense disruptions such as tinnitus (ears ringing), rhinitis (nasal allergies), and now age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Learn how studies are showing that AMD may be connected to an overactive immune system that eventually causes an autoimmune response. Plus, some ways you may be able to avoid or possibly reverse this compromise for healthier and stronger vision.
Groundbreaking work by British scientists shows how protein covered waste found on drusen (yellow deposits) in the back of the eye attract defective immune cells. This waste material also activates or “turns-on” these cells into creating a low inflammation biomarker which, over time, can lead to macular degeneration. This is microscopic inflammation that goes undetected until symptoms begin which, in the case of AMD, means there’s no going back.
Using lab mice, researchers at the University of Southampton induced a bacterial infection in the retina using salmonella. This activated a range of responses including Müller cell activation (this begins retinal cell degeneration), T cell recruitment and pro-inflammatory cytokine production. These responses caused immune cells to target the retina which at first showed normal immune cell defensive function but, over time due to the intense infection more immune cells would respond causing a “chain reaction” and over stimulation.
When it comes to your immune system and your eyes the science is there.
With this and many other compelling scientific studies it is important to take heed and do something about it. Determine if your immune system is overworked and then try some of these preventative measures to calm it down for more optimal functioning.
Although acute inflammation is one of your body’s ways to fight infection, chronic inflammation can pose problems which includes AMD. One way to determine if you are struggling with chronic inflammation is to ask your doctor for a high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) test. This is a common check of proteins in the body related to inflammatory responses. Although studies are still underway to determine if systemic inflammation outside of retinal compromise might affect vision, it is recommended to be vigilant just the same. This means that if you are challenged by inflammatory markers associated with conditions that include weight gain, chronic fatigue, digestive challenges, joint pain, or skin rashes it could be affecting your vision.
Conventional medicine will approach chronic inflammation with a battery of pharmacological treatments including steroids, antibiotics, antivirals, pain meds and even anti-anxiety drugs. Before you go this route there are natural ways you can calm inflammation.
Check with your doctor first and then try one or more of these nutritional, herbal and other supplemental anti-inflammatory remedies which may help prevent AMD.
Your immune system often works in conjunction with your sympathetic and parasympathetic (fight or flight) response. When it is constantly revved up, the high stress level could tax your vision and lead to macular degeneration. Reducing daily stress through meditation, breathing exercises and physical activity could make a world of difference molecularly as well as mentally.
The Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) which was reported in 2001 found that a daily protocol of the AREDS supplemental formulation could reduce retinal inflammation and support healthy vision. This is a specific, clinically trialed combination of vitamins and minerals that have shown to assist the immune system and possibly, with additional proactive practices, prevent macular degeneration.
Take note of your overall health to determine if your immune system may be running on overdrive. This is particularly recommended when it comes to your sight and preventing AMD. WebMD reports a list of symptoms that may possibly relate to an overactive immune system. Keep in mind that these things would probably be chronic rather than acute meaning you’ve been struggling with them for a long time. It is important to see your eye doctor and/or general practitioner for further investigation if need be.
Cold, hands, diarrhea, constipation, dry eyes, fatigue, mild fever, headaches, rashes, aching joints, patchy hair loss, repeated infections, photosensitivity (sensitive to sun), hand/feet tingling/numbness, difficulty swallowing, unintended weight fluctuation, white skin patches, or skin/eye yellowing.
Take note of your overall health to determine if your immune system may be running on overdrive. This is particularly recommended when it comes to your sight and preventing AMD. If you are stressed out or experiencing symptoms get back on track with a plant-based diet, meditation, supplements and healthy activity. Your eyes, body and mind will thank you.

Kinesthetic sense is our body awareness, our ability to sense where our body is in space as well as our sense of movement. When I think of how our sense of our bodies can help us, I think of beautiful movement such as dance or yoga. I also think that all sorts of effortless movement can help bring back freedom and joy. Activities such as ice skating, swinging in a swing, rolling down a hillside, skipping along, bicycling – those things that you laughed while doing as a child.
