“Pokémon Go is a free-to-play location-based augmented reality mobile game developed by Niantic and published by The Pokémon Company as part of the Pokémon franchise. It was released worldwide in July 2016 for iOS and Android devices.
The game received mixed critical reception. It was praised by some medical professionals for potentially improving the mental and physical health of players, but attracted some controversy due to reports of causing accidents and being a public nuisance to some locations.
While the Kingsport Police Department certainly encourages activities that allow individuals to socialize with fellow citizens and exercise the mind and body, we urge people to consider some inherent risks and follow some basic safety tips when playing this game.
1) People have been observed walking around, blindly staring at their smartphone screens, completely oblivious to their surroundings. This creates the risk of slips, trips, and falls as well as walking out into a roadway in the path of vehicle traffic. This also creates the risk of individuals being caught unaware of other potential threats to their safety and unprepared to react.
2) There is significant concern that someone might try to play this game while operating a motor vehicle. Of all of the countless distractions to motorists, playing a video game on a smartphone would certainly rank near the top of the most dangerous list.
3) There have been reports of people unintentionally wandering on and trespassing upon private property while playing this game. There have also been reports of large groups of people gathering to play this game and in turn, creating a public nuisance or disturbance at a particular location or interfering with the ability of others to conduct business and activities.
4) While none appear local, there have even been reports of criminals using the GPS feature of the application to locate potential victims in a secluded area or lure potential victims into an ambush. It is never a good idea to broadcast your live GPS coordinates to unknown members of the general public.
In summary, players of Pokémon Go are encouraged to have fun, but temper that fun with a solid dose of common sense.

One day, the window went down and never came back up.
One day, the window went down and never came back up on our 2007 Nissan Quest. The driver side window is the most likely to fail as it typically gets the most use, so after 70k miles, this was not too unexpected. However, I did not want to pay $600 labor and parts to the local dealer if I could do this myself. I tried searching online and found very very little information on how to fix this other basic diagrams, vague general instructions, or go to the dealer. So decided it should not be too hard and I tackled it. I took pictures along the way so you can do it easily, confidently, and cheaply. You can feel confident you won't tear your car apart and have no idea if you can ever put it back together or how much damage you might do to other parts (my fear usually).
Why won't the window roll up?
The very first thing was to make sure it was really the motor that was the problem. Without taking the door apart and testing connections for voltage, it is impossible to *know* if it is the motor, but since the master window controller worked for all the other windows and the switch in the control made what sounded like a contact sound (justa a little pop of electricity being passed through the relay) when trying the driver's window but no motor action at all, I felt about 93% sure it was the motor.
There was still a bit of a chance it was the switch or contacts but I doubted it. So I ordered the part for $140 from USAutoParts.com for a remanufactured (commonly called remanned) motor. They had the best price and I had ordered from them before for various pieces with no real issue (their shopping cart is a little hokey and confirm emails are sporadic and they actually lost this order the first time and I had to re-order it, so where ever you can get a good price, you know?).
So I effectively after waiting 12 days and then re-ordering the part, it showed up in three days by FedEx.
Once I Have The Part, I Am Ready To Do This Thing!
Step 2 - Second Bolt - The second bolt is under the arm rest where you grab the door to close it. The cover just pops out.
Step 3a - Pull out the armrest control module thingy - The third bolt is underneath, just above where the second bolt was.
Step 3b - You can check your contacts and make sure they are clean. These are very shiny and clean.
Step 3c - Third Bolt - Once you have the arm rest removed, the last bolt (not including the fake plastic screw) is underneath the arm rest, just above the bolt that was under the snap-in cover in the arm rest.
Step 4 - This fake plastic screw needs to be removed. I am not sure if it does much and I was not careful enough with it and it broke off (I thought it was real and treated it as such). It does not seem to be functional and only is cosmetic in as much as it covers a hole that is probably not necessary.
So now trying to actually fix the window, I am getting mildy frustrated. Or as some might say, frustered.
I had basic diagrams from online, and I have taken door panels off other cars, but I wanted to do this cleanly. No one had decent instructions but I felt confident enough I could do it but figured I would take pictures along the way A) so I could put it back together B) so I could share with you how to do this. So I hunkered down for what might be a long afternoon.
First make sure you have the basic tools you will need. This normally won't take anything special, but if you don't have basic these tools, go buy them. You will still save oodles over going to a dealer.
First, there are 3 bolts (with Phillips heads) and one fake plastic screw to remove.
The first screw is behind the handle behind a little pop out cover. Use the small flat head to pop out the cover and then the Phillips to take out the screw.
The second screw is under the cover of the door handle. Use the small flat head to pop out the cover, and the Phillips to take out that screw.
The last screw to remove before you can remove the door panel is located under the control panel console. This is the front part of the armrest with the mirror, lock buttons, and window controller switches. You need to gently but forecefully lift the panel out of the armrest. It should pop out with out too much trouble and nothing should break off so don't worry. Yank it out! You can choose whether to disconnect all the modular wire harness or squeeze the arm rest through the panel when you take it off. It is easy to reconnect later for testing if you want.
Then go ahead and take out the fake screw with the Phillips. Be gentle with it. It is not really a screw, just a plastic thing that looks like a screw (what real functionality it has I have no clue) and if you force it too much it will break. I broke mine but I don't think it really does anything so we will live.
I took the arm rest panel out to see if there were any screws under there but there are NOT. You do not need to remove this piece. It just pops in and out though. No biggie.
Now you need to disconnect the control panel from its wires. Optionally, you can squeeze it through the hole and leave it hanging but I wanted to get it out of the way while replacing the motor. I ended up reattaching it soon after to test my replacement remanned motor so set the panel someplace safe and accessible. You will want to test the new motor before reassembling everything just in case!
Detach the gas door release and undo its wire connector. It should pop out easily.
Detach the courtesy light at the bottom of the panel. The crystal should pop out easily with a little squeeze and then detach the electrical connector.
This should be enough to get the door panel off easily.
There are a seven plastic snap-ons to detach as you pop the door panel off. Lift the door panel upwards gently to get it off the lip of the frame (where the glass comes out) and then feel along the outer edges of the door panel to gently pop these plastic connectors applying equal pressure around them with your hands. Four of the plastic snap-ons are along the outer edge (away from the hinge) and three are along the interior edge (near the hinge).
When all is said and done, I had to do this three times after when I reattached everything and found I didn't get the lock and door handles re-connected just right. I did not pay attention to my own photo of the cables correctly set in the handle! So the snaps hold up pretty well and are pretty sturdy. I have seen on many cars these types of connectors basically disintegrate and are expected to be replaced each time they are undone. You should have no issue like that on the Nissan Quest at least.
You can see what they look like in the picture titled Step 7 .
Once you have all those popped, the panel should basically fall off. Just make sure you unhooked all the wire connectors before giving it a big yank!
Step 7 - There are seven (7) of these snap-on connectors. These are the last things holding the door panel on. The come apart pretty cleanly. Just be gentle and slide your hands in behind them to pop them out.
The only thing left connecting it will be the two cables that go to the lock and door opening mechanism. These both just unhook easily but pay attention to how they slide in. The lock mechanism is very simple ball joint, but the opening mechanism needs the edge slipped into the edge of the handle to keep tension and then also be hooked into the lever back. I did not notice it needed to be slid in to a fixed position the first time and had to redo it a couple times. The spousal unit did not like having to roll down the window to open the door from the outside to get out.... hum.... picky picky ;-).
Lastly, peel back the foam and fibre insulation so you can get at your work area. I used duct tape to keep it out of the way and did not need to peel off the whole thing. You should be about to peel back about 50% of the lower right insulation and be able to get at everything you need to. Don't worry about the gummy stuff reattaching. It does fine at resealing the foam to the door frame. I did however use a little duct tap on the corners of the fibre to make sure it stayed in place when I reattached it. Now you are ready to do the deal!
Step 9 - This is what you should have once you remove the door panel. Note the snap on connectors might pop off and stick in door frame. It will be easiest to put them all (7 of them) back in the door panel when you re-attach it.

Creation makes it evident that God places great value in excellence and beauty. When God created the world, He showed His fatherly heart of love towards us by giving much care and attention to detail.
“The LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
“Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads. The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which skirts the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. And the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and the onyx stone are there. The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one which goes around the whole land of Cush. The name of the third river is Hiddekel; it is the one which goes toward the east of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
God did not just throw us into a boring, black and white world. Instead, He birthed man into a lush garden and gave us the honor of responsibility.
God could have made one season, but instead He made four to display His majesty in the spring blossoms, the summer harvest, the fall colors, and the winter solace.
God could have made one flower and one tree, but instead he created hundreds of thousands of species! He could have stopped with the creation of one type of cat or bird, but He chose to create over 1 million animal species!
Our God is great, and His creation speaks of His vast greatness!
Our olive trees clap their hands in worship!
It is amazing to think that God made the world and the beauty of all creation to give glory to His Name and for mankind to enjoy. He has prepared a beautiful home for us, and when we plant grass, flowers, trees, or grapevines we are in some very small way mimicking our Father in Heaven.
At My Olive Tree, we truly believe that it blesses the heart of our Father God to see His land cared for and restored through sponsorships given with great love and purpose.
In the same way that children imitate adults around them, we are imitating the work of our Father by ‘tending the garden’ and restoring the land He created.

As the lines of primary care and urgent care blur, many urgent care clinics are adding primary care services to their patient offerings. Increasingly, urgent cares are no longer a one-stop-shop for only immediate care. Scheduled appointments for preventative or follow-up care are becoming common, as patients drive the shift for even more on-demand care.
With primary care, your urgent care can grow a regular, returning base of patients. You can focus on marketing to those in your community who need a primary care provider—but don’t have a consistent physician. With the shortage of PCPs continuing, these patients will broaden the scope of those you serve, and offer repeat visits, which enables your clinic to rely less on one type of visit revenue.
With growing your patient base to include repeats, your clinic can be more financially stable. Consistent visits with scheduled appointments for family care or primary care options gives you a better average of number of visits, and more predictability for revenue intake. Reimbursements rates for primary care (from insurance companies) can be higher, depending on quantity of visit types you see and your contracts.
Expanding services will brand your clinic to patients as a more diverse healthcare option. If they can get flu shots and screenings with you—along with stop by when they have an immediate issue, they’ll be more likely to see you as a primary provider. Immediate or quick appointments will be more appealing (especially for chronic illness needs)—and treatments will be the same quality as at a primary care clinic.
Rather than compete, urgent cares can set up a friendly alignment of treatment with other local healthcare options. PCPs can refer overflow and after-hours patients to your urgent care, and those with more specific needs can be referred back to another PCP. Mutual referrals can grow both patient bases. PCPs and hospitals are also moving toward adding their own urgent cares—so partnerships between entities are desirable from both angles.
If your urgent care is looking to add primary care to your services, you’ll need to ensure you have an EMR and PM that can handle these scheduled patient visit types. You’ll also have to consider contracting and credentialing changes needed for billing—along with deciding how to staff and schedule out regular appointments, while still covering walk-in patients.
Has your urgent care added primary care services? Why or why not?

How do you make God laugh? Make plans! How do you make your publisher cry? Make plans to do a book on movie title sequences!
Over ten years ago I attempted to do just that. Three-quarters through the research I hit a brick wall – the movie studios. While the featured designers were cooperative, none owned the rights to their work. The studios or producers did. Obtaining permissions is tedious, yet the first few studios I contacted graciously granted rights for publication. I was confident about approaching the rest. Note to self: never get overly confident!
Some did not respond, others forwarded the request to their lawyers (who did not respond), still others agreed, as long as I paid 0 or more per frame (which would have equalled at least k). The book was ultimately dropped. But I was not alone: other would-be authors of similar books were likewise stymied. Which is why I was surprised to see Uncredited: Graphic Design & Opening Titles in Movies for sale in New York.
Yet, upon opening the 300-plus page volume, I was disappointed to see hundreds of sequences reproduced at small size without any scale changes. It looked as though the authors simply took digital screen-grabs at the only size that would allow unadulterated reproduction, which in turn was a difficult size at which to appreciate the quality of design.
But when I started making my way through the book, my admiration for Solana and Boneu’s efforts increased exponentially. Not only did they survey work of acknowledged masters – Saul Bass, Pablo Ferro, Dan Perri, Maurice Binder, Richard Greenberg, Randy Balsmayer, Robert Dawson and more – they found work by less acknowledged but no less innovative pioneers.
The title is something of a misnomer. While there are various ‘uncredited’ sequences, the authors uncovered many designers who had long been left for anonymous. The ubiquitous on-screen credit for Pacific Title & Art Studio is also detailed, having been founded by Leo Schlesinger (creator of Bugs Bunny).
The great virtue and surprise of Uncredited is its refusal to hold true to the canon of title design and designers. One forgotten star was Lotte Reiniger, a German film-maker who designed titles for her 1915 film, Der Golem (see Eye no. 60 vol. 15). Another was Mary Ellen Bute, an experimental cineaste, who directed such typographical ‘ballets’ as Spook Sport (1939) and Tarantella (1940), her early ‘electronic visual’ experiment of type and abstract image. A real eye-opener was the work of Sandy Dvore, whose TV credits included the comic opener for The Partridge Family and an iconic one for Falcon Crest, and who was responsible for the expressionist titles for The Dunwich Horror (1970) and the pre-deconstructive approach to Blacula (1972).
There is also a parlour-game quality to Uncredited insofar as the reader is challenged to guess who did what. I was floored to read that the cartoonist Andre François designed Roman Polanski’s 1967 Dance of the Vampires and Ronald Searle was responsible for the 1966 Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines. While I knew Richard Williams was responsible for some of the Pink Panther titles, I had not seen his 1965 The Liquidator, a typographic spectacular that could have been done yesterday. Nor had I any idea that Bob Gill designed the wonderfully gaudy titles for The 7th Voyage of Sinbad (1958).
There is such a wealth of material here that the small size of the frames is not really a handicap, and actually allows the designers, Mario Eskenazi and Diego Feijoo, to show more details than radical scale changes would allow. With the accompanying DVD, which contains over a dozen of the sequences, this book fills a huge gap in the literature of motion graphics. So I won’t even ask whether they got permission to run all the sequences – I don’t want to know.

Brahmaputra River | Me, in Me.
Brahmaputra river is the one that today we are going to see in the North East of India. This river is not only considered sacred by Indians but also has very interesting facts behind its origin and history.
As you may know, almost all the natural resources like rivers in India has a female name. But this is one river that has a male name. Yes, Brahmaputra – meaning Son of Brahma.
The Brahmaputra river is a trans-boundary river, crossing boundaries of several countries. The origin of this river is actually in Tibet – called as the Manasarovar lake – it reaches Assam, where it becomes the Brahmaputra river, after passing through Arunachal Pradesh.
From Assam, it further flows down through Bangladesh and finally meets the Bay of Bengal.
The entire length of the journey it takes before reaching the Bay of Bengal is little less than 3000 KMs.
Legend says how the river came into existence. As per legend, Brahma – the creator of the Universe, visited Mount Gandhamadana. It was here where he was attracted towards Amogha, the lovely wife of Sage Shantanu. Amogha turned down him away and so Brahma left the place leaving his signs in the place.
When Sage Shantanu returned he understood what happened. He felt that a new life from Brahma and his wife could mean a great contribution to this universe. He convinced his wife, and with his divine power, he made a miraculous conception to his wife with the signs left over from Brahma.
Amogha finally birthed a boy with features resembling Brahma. He was named Brahmakunda and placed between the four mountains – Kailash, Gandhamadana, Jarudhi, and Sambwarttaka. With the passage of time, this water body grew into a lake as big as the sea. He was Brahma’s son or Putra of Brahma.
The Brahmaputra river is considered sacred by Hindus. Even today, on the day of Makar Sankranti, 100 thousands of people gather in the Parasuram Kund near the Tezu town in Arunachal Pradesh.
People visit here to clean their sins following the tradition established by Lord Parasuram himself.
My theme for the April 2019 #AtoZChallenge is blogging about the rivers, mostly from India. Let me see if I can make it through all alphabets. You can find all my #AtoZChallenge posts here. Interested to know my next destination starting with letter C? Try commenting your guess, let’s see.
Kudos to you for choosing this theme. Through your posts, I’m getting to learn geography, a subject I loathed in school.
This is a fascinating story, MJ. Till you mentioned it, I had never realised that the Brahmaputra is the only river with a male name. Loving your theme.
Wow! You are sharing some wonderful facts. Nice reading about it.
Loved the details about the Brahmaputra river. I vaguely remember reading this in a book called Rivers of India. I am trying to locate that book for my kid and seems to be out of print and not in sight at all. But now, I can show your blog to my son.
Have experienced the only male river of India in Guwahati and was spellbound with its length and depth.

Whew it was a windy and brisk morning this morning. It feels like fall out here, but it’s nice. We still got our early start, and we were at the Tuolumne Meadows high Sierra Camp by 8am for breakfast.
Nice morning walking to Tuolumne Meadows.
We are pretty sure that my year on the PCT that the water was up to these bridges.
I’m still not feeling great from my period, and I don’t like spending much money on food, (especially when I’m not very hungry) so Rockin’ and Why Not had breakfast at the restaurant of the high Sierra camp while I finished some blog stuff. I was even able to get a phone call out to my sister, but not internet.
Then we headed over to the Tuolumne Meadows store to pick-up our resupply boxes and anything else we needed for today and the final three days. I have to give the store credit, they have a great selection that is very affordable. There is an attached Post Office and the employees kindly got our boxes for us on a Sunday.
My friend Maverick, who is section hiking the PCT, left me a message on my resupply box, which was a fun surprise. Hi Maverick!
A note from my friend Maverick!
The store even has a charging station for devices. I find it pretty cool that there are still places where people will plug in a phone or camera and walk away while it charges in a public store. Props to the Tuolumne Store!
With the extended stops we’ve been making, I’ve tried to limit the costs here and in the last town of Mammoth by not eating out so much and making myself eat what I have. I understand the appeal for Rockin’ and Why Not to do this stuff and the need for rest, but I have 9 months of travel ahead, and I can only afford to do that much travel because I do watch my spending and work hard to limit my town time. Today, I had a bar for breakfast, a microwave burrito with chocolate milk for lunch, and a cheap cheeseburger for dinner, which saved a good deal compared to the more formal dining options. The $6 camping fee is tough to swallow, but is totally understandable. It’s just tough to swallow cause we could have hiked out and had a nice remote place to ourselves for free.
Still, I need to respect the appeal of nice meals, rest, and a shower. I think it’s mostly because we are just three days away from finishing and we just took a long nero and zero in Mammoth that I’m more antsy. Also, I’m worried that this now may push us out of the range of available dates our friend LoveNote (PCT 2011, CDT 2013) had to see us. She and Burly (also CDT 2013) recently had their first baby and I really was looking forward to seeing the baby for the first time, and I hope that still will happen. There are some camping restrictions coming up and we may now have thrown things out of whack for that as well and might be forced into a shorter day tomorrow to comply. We will see. At least weather isn’t an issue.
In the end, it doesn’t change the summer timeframe much. I just have this internal balance of work vs play that I feel is now in imbalance. Not that this isn’t nice, but these days/hours add up over time. I like to have a time buffer for weather, unexpected things, and truly needed rest days, but the buffer is shrinking and this is just the first hike of the summer. I don’t want to get 3wks from now and realize I don’t have time to do the hikes I’d like this summer, but that is my mind-racing “wired” side that I can’t seem to turn off and I need to work on internalizing that for the sake of my hiking partners. I need to chillax about it and enjoy a day to watch shows.
Speaking of shows, I got some great binge watching in today! I seriously had like 7hrs of downtime! I had my solo time at the campground for the day and caved it up watching the 3 episodes of Orange Is The New Black that I had on my phone and the first four episodes of season one of UnReal. I was quite content and entertained by both. This season of OITNB started off bumpy, but it was hitting a stride right when I ran out of episodes I had available offline, ah! Now I’m going through UnReal and am getting hooked. I’m late to jump on the bandwagon on that one and am enjoying it. Yes, it’s totally fluff and mindless, but hey, I’m enjoying it!
So, now the backpacker camp has filled up with tons of PCTers, JMTers, and other backpackers doing various trips. I’m wide awake and wondering how I’ll sleep. We are on the periphery of the sites, but there is still plenty of movement and noise, so this will be interesting…good thing I have shows to watch, haha! Back to hiking tomorrow.
Appreciate the point of view and honesty. I have wondered lately how my lack of town stops, eating cheap and hiking on for free backcountry sites will play into the social aspects of my thru. I am going on this hike to be outside, see things and I enjoy being alone. But I know there is a wonderful community of hikers and wonder how that will balance out with my frugal and introverted personality. I also have a small measure of guilt associated with the time and cost of my thru because I will be leaving my family to do something just for me. When you have spent years thinking of yourself as a financial unit of 4, it is a little hard to take such a large amount of money and spend it just on yourself!
Yep, I for sure have that internal balance constantly pulling me. It’s unique for each person out there where their balance is struck with it all.
I hope so! I’m sitting here looking at Visa stuff for a couple months from now and would love for that to just go through so I can can stop worrying about it!
That note on your box is so cool! Always neat to connect in an unusual way.

We always build some "downtime" into our days at Walt Disney World. Typically, we get to the parks early in the morning and then play until lunchtime. Then we head back to our resort for a swim or nap. Later in the afternoon, we'll head back into the parks to check out the nighttime entertainment. It really helps everyone enjoy our vacation to the fullest without overdoing it.
Admission to the theme parks allows guests to leave and reenter the same park on the same day. If you decide to visit another park in the same day, you'll need to add the Park Hopper Option to your tickets.
So, your mother and grandfather can take a break from the parks and then come back to find you later i the day!

It was a five-set thriller in Wheelock Gymnasium on Wednesday night that featured long rallies, clutch moments, and endless grit on both ends of the hardwood. The Riverside City College indoor volleyball squad played host to the No. 18 Orange Coast College Pirates in Orange Empire Conference (OEC) play to kick off conference action. The Tigers hung in tough, but eventually fell in five sets with final set scores reading 25-16, 23-25, 16-25, and 11-15.
Riverside came out of the gates on fire by dominating the first set of play. They epitomized the definition of flawlessness by not committing a single error throughout the first set. Additionally, in each set the Tigers won, they carted a hitting percentage above .300.
It was an offensive melee from the start as seen in a trio of Tigers landing in double-digit kills. Sophomore outside hitter Marcella Rodriguez paced the squad with 50 total attempts and cashed in 15 kills. She was dynamic on the defensive front as seen in 19 total digs. Freshman outside hitter Vashti Elias-Romero equaled Rodriguez's kill mark with 15 on just 33 attempts (.455 hitting percentage). She recorded 14 digs and chipped in one service ace.
Sophomore outside hitter Julia Balancier reached 10 total kills on the night which marked her fourth game of the year landing in double-digits. She was efficient in her attempts as seen in a .241 hitting percentage. Sophomore middle Rozarya Barrett was one kill shy from the double-digit kills mark with nine total. She recorded a block solo and block assist as well.
Sophomore setter Taylor Gardner handled the majority of the setting duties by recording 31 assists. Freshman Robyn Collier earn 15 assists as well.
A strong defense transforms into stronger offense and sophomore libero Natalie Escher turned that statement into fact. She was a leader on the defensive line with 26 digs to mark her season high.
Riverside (6-4, 1-0 OEC) will host the Golden West College Rustlers (3-3, 1-0 OEC) on Friday, September 21. First serve is set for 6 p.m.

I'm doing some work that has to be developed remotely, so I wanted a way to edit locally instead of doing everything in a terminal window. I tried using MacFUSE and sshfs to make the remote directory appear on my own desktop, and it worked after I figured out the options I needed, but opening files in gvim was very slow.
So I took my friend Ed Marshall's advice and tried Vim 7's netrw support. Bingo! It works via scp (which is (almost?) always available when there's ssh access) and is dreamy.
:sp means "split window". % means "the current file". :h means "the parent directory of the preceding file path", and can be repeated.
I'd love to hear more about navigating in Vim + netrw—I haven't even gotten my feet wet yet. I just wanted to share the nice experience I had right out of the box.

May kicks off National Barbeque Month. That means it’s time to step outside, break out the grill, and enjoy the sunshine. Boulder Canyon and TGI Fridays Snacks are here to help you achieve ultimate grill master status this summer by introducing two new snacks.
Ancient Grains Chips by Boulder Canyon are the perfect chip in my opinion. The light, airy chip is perfect to eat alone or with your favorite dip. These crispy chips contain Quinoa, Millet, Sorghum, Brown Rice, Brown Teff, and Amaranth. Better yet this chip contains no trans fats and no cholesterol. The chips are gluten-free and Kosher -- which is a huge bonus! I can see this chip becoming a "staple" in my home!
Cheddar and Bacon Party Bites are a new variety of snacks by TGI Fridays. I enjoyed the flavorful puff and ate several handfuls while sitting at the pool this past weekend. I liked that this snack provided a nice crunch. The puff is cheesy (as I expected) and the bacon flavor is not overwhelming.
As a mom, I feel better knowing the puffs are "baked" (not fried!).
Warning: these chips will turn little fingers orange!
Happy Summer --and happy snacking -- my friends!

Although you can experience acid reflux and gas separately, both of them occurring together indicate gastroesophageal reflux disease, says Harvard Medical School. GERD occurs when the muscles of the lower esophagus loosen slightly, allowing stomach acid or digestive juice to return to the esophagus after swallowing. Certain foods can trigger the esophagus to relax, worsening the acid and gas, while others can help soothe the burn.
If GERD is the culprit of your acid and gas, avoid common trigger foods. According to Harvard Medical School, these include tomato sauces, chocolate, fried and fatty foods, citrus fruit, alcohol, peppermint, garlic, onions and carbonated beverages. If your main concern is just gas, modify your diet to exclude beans, vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower and cabbages, high-fiber whole grains such as bran, milk and packaged foods that contain lactose. You should also limit sodas, fruit juices and drinks sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup and foods that contain sugar alcohols like sorbitol. You can reintroduce foods slowly to determine which ones cause the most grief for your body.
Certain foods can reduce the symptoms of acid reflux, according to the authors of "Dropping Acid: The Reflux Diet Cookbook & Cure." Add foods such as ginger root, fennel and parsley to your diet for some relief. When cooking your meals, choose low-fat proteins such as seafood and poultry, and pair it with salad and grains such as couscous or rice.

On May 5th, the US Patent and Trademark Office published an update to the Interim Guidance titled “May 2016 Subject Matter Eligibility Update” to provide its examining corps with additional guidelines for determining subject matter eligibility under 35 USC §101.
The publication includes a memorandum, “Formulating a Subject Matter Eligibility Rejection and Evaluating the Applicant’s Response to a Subject Matter Eligibility Rejection,” which “seeks to improve examiner correspondence with regard to subject matter eligibility rejections.” It was issued in response to public comments.
This latest guidance follows an update from July 2015, which was issued in response to public comment on the 2014 Interim Patent Eligibility Guidance. That first guidance, published in the wake of the Alice Corp., Myriad, and Mayo Supreme Court decisions, offered additional guidelines on the patent eligibility of claims directed toward the judicial exceptions – including laws of nature, natural phenomena, or abstract ideas.
However, this latest PTO update is not likely to be the last word. Back in March, Sequenom petitioned the Supreme Court for review of the decision, and twenty amicus briefs are now on file. It is likely the Court will take on the case and rule on the patent eligibility of diagnostic claims, thereby necessitating a further PTO update.

An iOS Developer on React Native. When I first caught wind of React Native, I thought of it as nothing more than a way for web developers to dip their feet into native mobile apps. ... Apps built in Xcode and written in Objective-C, because that's the way it's always been.
I had already made dozens of iOS apps — good apps that I was proud of. Apps built in Xcode and written in Objective-C, because that’s the way it’s always been. That’s what Apple gave us to make iOS apps, so that’s what I and every other developer used. Then, two years ago when Apple released the Swift programming language, I didn’t hesitate to try it out.
Fast-forward a couple of months, and I’m confident enough to say I may never write an iOS app in Objective-C or Swift again.
We received a new mobile app project and I reviewed the requirements and designs. Just as I was about to click that beautiful blue Xcode icon to start a new project, our Interactive Director, Adam, walks over and says, “let’s do this one in React Native”.
He explained that part of our contract for this project was to have a clear path going forward to make this app available for Android as well . And although React Native was not yet available for Android, we knew Facebook was actively working on it. Theoretically, if we built the app in React Native for iOS, many parts of it would “just work” on Android by the time it was released.
Well, I wasn’t happy. I felt as if I was at the peak of my iOS development ability and was being asked to throw it all away. I doubted my own abilities to deliver a quality product on time given the inevitable learning curve. But even more than that, I doubted React Native in itself being capable of producing a quality product. Looking back, I don’t even think that doubt was unjustified. At the time, React Native had just come out as a beta. The documentation was lacking, the amount of open sourced React Native libraries and components was minuscule, and example code or Stack Overflow posts for reference were almost nonexistent.
I begrudgingly gave it a shot. But going in with my closed-mind attitude only did more harm. My first hurdle was learning Flexbox, React Native’s way of doing UI layout. Coming from the land of interface builder, laying out UI completely in code frustrated me beyond belief. I struggled to build even the most simple of views.
But it wasn’t just UI — everything was different. That was the biggest point of contention for me.
For a solid two weeks I was miserable at work. I had gone from feeling like an expert iOS developer to feeling like I’d never written a line of code in my life. It was defeating, until I took a weekend to clear my head. I took a step back and recognized that Adam had done a lot of research on React Native. I had to trust him as our Interactive Director to not be leading me down a bad path. I vowed to go into work Monday, put my head down, pretend Objective-C and Swift don’t even exist, and figure this thing out.
A few weeks ago, we submitted our first React Native app to the App Store. I’m extremely proud of how the app turned out, and I can’t wait to write our next one. In just a little over a month, consider me fully aboard the React Native train. What changed my mind?
All the view code is in one place, and state controls all. This makes comprehending and debugging the code so much easier.
That’s right. Seeing what your button would look like moved over 5 more pixels to the right is as easy as Command+S. React Native can be configured to automatically re-render the current view in the iPhone Simulator without rebuilding the Xcode project. This is huge because not only do you save time by not rebuilding, but you could be working on a view that is nested deep within the app and tweak the UI without having to navigate all the way back to that screen.
It’s still not out yet, but it’s coming — and it’s going to be amazing. I was hesitant about React Native at first because I already liked doing native iOS development. I didn’t have any complaints about it. But I’ve also done native Android development, and it’s not great. React Native will be very welcome on Android, and I am counting down the days until it’s here. This will revolutionize mobile app development by being able to deploy to 2 platforms with 1 code base.
I still miss Xcode, or really just an IDE in general. I’ve worked toward a pretty good React Native development setup, but it wasn’t easy. Sublime Text and a bunch of plugins later and I have good syntax highlighting and linting. Sublime can autocomplete based off other variables and things within the same file, but is lacking some of the robustness of Xcode’s autocomplete. I still have to leave the React documentation up all the time to use as a reference.
Little things like typing React.PropTypes.f and having the IDE not tell me whether I’m looking for ‘func’ or ‘function’ can be bothersome. I also miss Xcode’s version editor — which allowed me to compare a file side-by-side with that file at my last git commit and even undo specific changes on a per line basis. I realize a third party program could help me accomplish this, but one of the great things about IDEs is the all-in-one package.
To run a React Native project, I need to launch my terminal to start the npm packager, Chrome for the debugger, Sublime to edit my code, and ultimately Xcode to run the project and start the simulator. These are all minor complaints in the grand scheme of things, but still a con for me when it comes to React Native. I have high hopes that Nuclide (Facebook’s IDE) will alleviate some or all of these cons.
Most, if not all, of my initial complaints about React Native wouldn’t even exist if I started learning it today. Bugs are fixed daily, and new releases seem to pop up every week or so. The documentation still needs work, but has greatly improved. Facebook and the open source community in general are clearly very serious about developing this framework. It’s nice to see people actively engaged in React Native issues on GitHub and questions on Stack Overflow. If you are an iOS developer considering playing with React Native, know that you aren’t alone. React Native is wonderful, and you should try to embrace it with an open mind. Don’t pigeonhole yourself into what is comfortable like I did.

I went to watch the advent fireworks in my town just now. They went off at 11pm. I caught the bus down and was there just in time to glance around the bargainboxes in MediaMarkt (late-night-opening tonight) and make my way to the square.
The fireworks were spectacular in the sense that all fireworks are spectacular, but not in the way some shows are just breathtakingly astounding. I could probably have seen them from my house – I live on a hill and have a pretty good view of the town – but if someone’s going to sponsor them, I think showing up is the least one can do. Besides I didn’t want to miss them, just supposing I couldn’t see them from here.
As I was waiting for the bus back home, a slightly drunken elderly gentleman joined me at the bus stop. He peered at me and announced that he’d seen me before. I hadn’t really looked at him until then, but when I did, he did indeed seem familiar. There ensued a short pause followed by a bout of questioning while we figured out the connection. He shares an allotment with a guy who works in the same building as one of the people who used to work for someone who spends a lot of time sitting in my workshop. At some point during the summer I had been invited to a barbecue party in the allotment and had presumably seen him there. What was that about less than 7 connections to anyone?
About then the bus came. I had my buspass with me this time so I just got on and sat down, expecting the half-stranger to do the same. He got on, but the busdriver wouldn’t let him pay with a 50€ note. So I bought him a bus ticket. :).

We have brewed Stiegl-Goldbräu with 12° original wort for more than 100 years. The original wort is a major criterion with regard to the beer’s flavour. The height of the original wort determines how well-rounded, full-bodied and soft the beer is to the taste. That is why we never have and never will compromise on the original wort - a decision that is obvious not only the palate, but also to the eye: every glass of Stiegl-Goldbräu brilliantly reflects this high quality in its special, glorious golden colour.
Stiegl’s motto is “quality, not quantity”. And, with the exception of times of crisis like World War II, “Stiegl-Goldbräu” has always been brewed with a full 12° original wort since its market launch in 1912. That is by no means a matter of course. After all, Märzen beer can also be brewed with less than 12° original wort, according to European regulations. A large number of breweries in Austria have reduced the original wort, much to the detriment of quality. The benefits of less original wort: less beer tax and lower production costs.

Family owned and managed French label converter, NTE, hosted a “Happy Day” at its plant in Roubaix to celebrate the retirement of its founder Gérard Wojciekowski after 22 years. The event was inaugurated by the Mayor of Roubaix, Guillaume Delbar, as the company passed into the hands of Gerard’s son Rémi and daughter Valérie, and son-in-law Thibault Duponchel, who has managed the business since 2006.
NTE’s Thibault Duponchel (left) and Rémi Wojciekowski (right) assist the Mayor of Roubaix, Guillaume Delbar to open the company’s "Happy Day."
The company, which now employs 19 and will generate a turnover of €5m in 2018, has always prided itself on a reputation for innovation. In recent years, investment in a new flexo press and automatic plate washing machine have improved print quality and eased the tasks of the operatives. In addition, the company has invested in a diploma-based training scheme for its employees to improve skills and provide an industry-recognized qualification.
Most recently, NTE invested in a Mark Andy Digital One press. This entry-level toner press produces high quality work in micro to short run lengths, and offers inline converting opportunities. Chosen for its simplicity of operation, small footprint, and low running costs, the Digital One adds flexibility to NTE’s production capability.
Digital One is more than affordable. It is valuable. It offers an optimal balance between digital and flexo and acts as your all-in-one solution needed to support the rising demands for lower costs, shorter delivery times and reduced run lengths. NTE can now boast higher flexibility to shift jobs from digital or flexo, making their business more profitable.
With all the new technology, the company has decided to recruit its first ever salesperson. François Brabant will join NTE in September with a brief to grow and diversify the business. Renowned for its customer service, NTE recognizes its ongoing investment in technology and employees as a commitment to future success for itself and its customers.

John O’Groats is probably most famous for being the end of the iconic length-of-Britain cycle route from Land’s End.
But one band are hoping to change that.
Neon Waltz are a six-piece indie band from the northern tip of mainland Scotland, “with a psychedelic flair and rich, melodic sound calling to mind ‘60s-influenced forebears like the Stone Roses and the Coral”.
Formed in the remote town of Caithness in early 2013, the group honed their sound in a shared cottage, gigging locally and recording demos.
The band are in tune with each other – from clothes to records to music – which helps their sound.
Their debut album, Strange Hymns, is out next week, on Friday, August 18, and a small UK tour kicks off at Sheffield’s Record Junkee on Saturday, August 26.

OW2 Technology Council Special Prize for ProActive-CLIF-Fractal integration.
Fractal is a modular, extensible and programming language agnostic component model that can be used to design, implement, deploy and reconfigure systems and applications, from operating systems to middleware platforms and to graphical user interfaces. The goal of Fractal is to reduce the development, deployment and maintenance costs of software systems in general, and of ObjectWeb projects in particular.
recursivity: components can be nested in composite components (hence the "Fractal" name).
reflectivity: components have full introspection and intercession capabilities.
component sharing: a given component instance can be included (or shared) by more than one component. This is useful to model shared resources such as memory manager or device drivers for instance.
execution model independence: no execution model is imposed. In that, components can be run within other execution models than the classical thread-based model such as event-based models and so on.
open: extra-functional services associated to a component can be customized through the notion of a control membrane.

People aren’t speaking up nearly as much as they’d like to at work. One 2017 study finds that just 1 per cent of employees feel “extremely confident” to air their concerns, and roughly 33 per cent believe their organisations don’t support the employee voice and speaking up broadly as a habit.
While our research team initially started studying voice as a way of addressing harassment and other high-stakes breaches of ethics, we discovered that speaking up doesn’t just discourage problematic behaviours; it encourages positive ones like creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving.
That means when leaders create the conditions for voice, they can make smarter, more creative decisions and root out questionable behaviours before they fester into something larger.
People don’t lead in a vacuum. A wide body of research has found that the experience of being in power actually changes the brain. High-status people largely lose their ability to take others’ perspectives; they start focusing more on goals rather than people, and they take more risks in pursuit of executing on their vision. The result: leaders tend to be less likely to seek out alternative opinions from others and encourage the employee voice.
Additional research has found that people run into some predictable obstacles to voice when they witness questionable behaviour. For example, groups often fall victim to the “diffusion of responsibility,” in which each member of the group assumes another person will speak up, so no one actually does. People have also been found to rationalise their silence because of fears of retribution or punishment, both to themselves and others.
Taken together, the data paint a clear picture that it’s not so easy to say something just because you saw something.
With that science in mind, we’ve concluded that the employee voice emerges mostly according to the risks and benefits they’ve assigned to voice – a finding that obliges leaders to create the right conditions in their culture. Specifically, they should be making it feel safer to call things out, and less threatening to get called out.
Similarly, when leaders withhold their own opinion until the end of a group discussion about how to approach a problem, team members are likely to suggest a wider array of alternative solutions than if the leader had chimed in first.
Scripts can be useful when developing a habit that involves minimising threat. Phrases like “I don’t mean to challenge your status, but…” and “For the sake of this project, …” explicitly try to defuse any possible threat and highlight the larger goal. From there, both sides can feel more comfortable knowing their status won’t be threatened just because of a difficult conversation.
When leaders make an active effort to encourage the employee voice and solicit others’ views, they hold the power to radically shift how their organisation functions. Without false expertise plaguing meetings and silence reigning in moments of questionable behaviour, teams will feel empowered to freely debate new ideas, approach colleagues with confidence, and develop greater individual senses of agency. In addition, voice-rich cultures tend to be ones of consequence, since people know they’ll be held accountable for their ideas and actions.
Getting to such a state may be harder than it seems, since most managers probably think they already know where (or who) their good ideas come from. That’s why, along with deep insights from science, voice also requires a dose of humility. It requires an understanding from leaders that people can surprise them in extraordinary ways, and maybe all they need is the encouragement to speak up.

Africa is a the most diverse continent on the planet. Comprising 55 countries and countless cultures, it is home to over one billion people and more than a thousand languages. Some say it is home to all people, as it is believed the first humans originated from Africa.
This massive continent – the second largest of them all after Asia – is also home to a rich variety of wildlife with populations of large carnivores, herbivores, reptiles, primates, aquatic life, and over a quarter of the world’s bird species. Megafauna like giraffe, zebra, gorilla, hippopotamus, chimpanzee and wildebeest are unique to Africa.
One important reason for this abundant assortment of plant and animal life is the diversity of climates on mainland Africa and the islands off its coast. It’s the only continent to stretch from the northern temperate zone to the southern temperate zone, with climates ranging from tropical areas with jungles and rainforests to wide open savannah and dry deserts and grasslands – there are even sub-arctic areas on the mountain peaks.
Africa is rich with natural resources, but for many reasons, including historical colonialism, bad leadership, disease and exploitation, the continent still struggles with abject poverty and underdevelopment. Its wildlife is in danger too. Many animals living there have been pushed to the brink of extinction due to human activity – from the poaching of the black rhinoceros for its valuable horn (worth more than its weight in gold), to the collection of Madagascan chameleons for the exotic pet trade, to the poisoning of big cats by farmers and herders to protect their land and flocks. And both animals and humans are suffering the effects of aggressive deforestation. Woodland is destroyed in Africa at twice the world rate.
The study of Africa thus provides a wealth of valuable learning opportunities. The majority of this project focuses on the geographical, social and scientific value of exploring the cultures, climates and creatures of Africa. However, there are plenty of opportunities to develop students’ research and literacy skills throughout, beginning with the reciprocal reading of a traditional West African tale. There is particular emphasis on the conservation of nature and the protection of endangered species.
A traditional West African tale about a hunter who learns the value of wisdom and kindness. Available as a pdf and a separate word document (formatted to make mass printing easier and more cost effective). Both can be found in Activity 1 Resource Pack.
Images of African animals and landscapes to accompany the activities in this project plan.
The purpose of this activity is to encourage active thinking and reading through close examination of the West African tale ’The Blind Man and the Hunter', using the reciprocal reading roles of summariser, predictor, clarifier and questioner.
Students investigate Africa’s position on the globe and produce a large-scale map of the continent showing its countries and major geographical features.
Pupils plan, create and present a PowerPoint to the class on one of Africa’s countries, focusing predominantly on geographical features and information.
Students create a culturegram (an image bank) about the lives of people in Africa.
Students compare average temperature and rainfall in the Sahara Desert and the Congo Rainforest, considering the diversity of African climates and the implications for the way of life in that country.
Students design an information booklet about an African animal.
Students identify and research endangered animals. They then create a poster informing people how the animal has become endangered and how it can best be protected.
Students write a news piece on one issue related to the conservation of animals in Africa.
Activity sheet 7e – What makes an effective news story?
Students carry out a role-play to gain a better understanding of conservation and the threats facing the animals, land and people involved. The activity culminates in the students creating a news item for the children’s show, Newsround.
Students design a plant or animal that is adapted to life in a chosen African climate – desert, savannah, rainforest or steppe.
Students research an explorer of Africa and write a diary entry for a significant event in their voyages.
This project and its resource packs can be accessed for free with subscription to Creative Teaching & Learning or purchased for £36.

Art of Conquest is an iOS game that covers a couple different genres. Being a mix of real-time strategy and basebuilding, the game has a lot of different aspects that can lead to success.
You can take it slow and build up your territory, patiently help your faction grow, or pump out troops to immediately throw into the fray. How you play is up to you, but there are some tips to help make the start a little easier.
This is the first major choice that you will be faced with. As the game begins you are given the choice of three heroes, all with different specialties. Each hero is powerful in their own right, but some are more complicated than others. Don't worry if you decide you don't like your hero -- you'll pick up more as you progress.
With that in mind, though, here are three picks that are good for when you're just starting out.
Avalon: Avalon is a strong pick for beginners. He has the "Natural Leader" ability which lets you get more troops on the field, and his "Capture Resources" ability lets him increase your resources every time you win a battle.
Avril: Avril has some good crowd control, being able to freeze and block enemy movement. The only major downside is that her skills can be a little tricky to use effectively. Her ice wall ability is useful, but if placed wrong it can be just as detrimental to yourself.
Rufio: Rufio is powerful. As he levels up he becomes wildly strong, being able to take down bosses with ease. He's fairly easy to use, with his biggest downside being that you can't immediately drop his Heroic Leap and Chopping Blade skills because you have to wait in between skill casts.
These are general rules -- but if someone outnumbers you too heavily there's still a possibility of losing no matter how your units match up against each other. Since you can see what units an enemy army will be using, you can plan you troop placement accordingly.
It's possible to move your castle, but it's not recommended until you reach Level 4 Castle Walls. Any time before that, you risk getting crushed by other players.
Once you move your stronghold, you'll get to plunder other cities to collect a ton more resources -- but you will also be vulnerable to being attacked. Building a Warehouse will keep some of your resources safe just in case someone comes along to fight you.
This is a fairly obvious tip, but it's really important. The quests are easy to complete early on, so you can blast through them -- and before you know it you'll have more resources than you'll know what to do with. There's plenty of sequential quests that will keep popping up as you explore and complete other quests, as well as the Tactics School, which presents a series of battles each with its own reward and quest.
That wraps up this guide for Art of Conquest! Be sure to keep checking back for more guides to help you through this mobile genre-bending game.

text: Sequin dresses, champagne and smiling faces counting down to the new year. Some kisses here and some resolutions there. This time, Samantha thought everything will be different. She made a resolution every year to change her lifestyle into something fitter but she could not make a lasting change in the long run. But this time, she was absolutely determined. In the first weeks of January, she bought new shoes and active wear, she started to spinning class twice a week and promised herself a biking weekend as a reward in the spring.But then in February, Jims birthday celebration collided with her work out session, so she missed it out. Afterward, her mom needed to be brought to the hospital due to chest pains, while another time her fridge broke and needed to wait for the technician. March was already upon her when she realized she does not go to the gym anymore.Her story is one of ours, no matter whether its about sports, eating, reading more or working less. I spoke to Jurriaan van Rijswijk, Chairman of the Games for Health Europe Foundation, about why it is so hard to adopt new habits. The gamification expert said that motivation is one factor in changing behavior, but loyalty towards the subject of change is something people usually dont consider. The money versus time issue is often why desired longterm behavioral change fails. So instead of trying to buy your way into change with sport clothing items or pricey devices, at first, you should start spending time exercising with limited resources and technology. Then gradually the new behavior becomes valuable, and you will spend more and more of your valuable time doing it.
