Modi also said that Gupta met with other senior BJP leaders to seek bail for Lalu.
BJP leader and Bihar's Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Modi on Wednesday levelled strong accusations against RJD chief Lalu Prasad, claiming that he sought help from Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley for relief in the fodder scam. "After Jharkhand High Court convicted Lalu in a fodder scam case in November 2014, CBI went to Supreme Court to challenge the decision. Lalu Yadav sent his messenger Prem Gupta to Arun Jaitley to seek his help. Lalu's aide attempted that CBI should either not file an appeal or if it does file it, the probe agency must not oppose Lalu's applications in the case," he said during a press conference here.
Modi further claimed that the RJD leader offered to topple the Nitish Kumar government in exchange for help from Jaitley. "Arun Jaitley, however, clearly told him that CBI is an autonomous body and he cannot do anything about it," he added.
Modi also said that Gupta met with other senior BJP leaders to seek bail for Lalu. "Lalu Prasad is a person with no do's and don'ts and can go to any limit to get his work done. He criticises BJP and RSS all the time but doesn't have a problem in taking their help," said Modi.
The Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar also alleged that the ticket distribution was handled by Lalu, despite him behind the bars. "RJD supremo who is in jail is still trying to affect the politics of Bihar. In the distribution of ticket, he handled everything from the hospital (under custody)," said Modi.
On Tuesday, Modi had announced that he would file a defamation case against Congress president Rahul Gandhi for his "all thieves have Modi in their surnames" comment. "I will file a defamation case against Rahul Gandhi in Patna High Court within two days," Modi had told reporters in Patna.

Like our dining room style evolution from house to house, our kitchen table has also evolved over the years.
…..grew into a Cocoa Puff eating teenager!
That yummy little babe and the teenaged counterpart are both at the same table – it has seen lots of makeovers in it’s time.
Last week I estimated that, excluding vacations and school, we’ve eaten approximately 13,650 meals at this table. The little munchkin above and his brother and sister have jammed forks into the tabletop, knocked the chairs over, colored outside the lines and right off the paper with markers. I’ve scraped paint, syrup, and glittery nail polish from it countless times, cajoled little ones into eating their veggies here, helped with homework in this spot, and delivered many a lecture while my children were trapped around this table. It’s been the center of our food-loving, arts-and-crafts loving, family-loving motley crew for 13 years. And I need a few more years of meal, homework, and nail painting service from it, so the time had come for yet another extreme makeover.
The table and chairs started out with the natural wood/white combo. Those of you who have lived through toddlers know the grubbiness these chairs saw from chubby, sticky, precious little fingers. They were scrubbed on a daily basis in those days.
When we moved to a house with black countertops and natural maple cabinets, the white table stood out like a sore thumb, so out came the black paint. Isn’t it crazy how paint can totally change something???
It’s hard to tell from the pictures, but the table top has a lot of rich wood tone peaking through.
This was a stripping/restaining nightmare project. For those of you thinking of tackling a makeover like this, I wanted to share with you my experience.
These are the products I used, along with Kilz water-based primer.
First I stripped the varnish off the tabletop with Citristrip. This is the magical product I used to strip my stair treads. You simply brush it on and let it sit for 30 minutes, then scrape off. In some areas I had to reapply and scrape again.
After scraping the varnish off, I cleaned the table with fine steel wool dipped in paint thinner.
Then I stained the tabletop.
Here’s the nightmarish part of this makeover: the stain didn’t take in some spots. Turns out some woods don’t take stain well (we are not even sure what kind of wood this table is made of, but I’m 90% sure it’s something called Asian Hardwood.) I resanded, cleaned and restained the tabletop, only to have the same splotchy issue happen again.
At this point I considered my options. Resand for a third time and then strip again? Paint the tabletop white along with the rest of the table? Jump off a bridge?
Polyshades is stain and polyurethane all in one. It allows you to change the color of a piece of furniture or stair rail without stripping or sanding off the existing varnish and color (which is extraordinarily time consuming.) If you google Polyshades or talk to any professional, you will read that the Polyshades products are complete junk because of this major downside, which I have first hand experience with: the finish can be scratched off just like paint. The stain in the product doesn’t penetrate the wood; instead it sits on top of it. Because of this, I have found that even though it has poly in it, I still need to coat over the Polyshades with clear poly to protect and seal it, like you would with a painted piece of furniture. A refinishing purist would tell you to just stain and poly a raw piece of wood the old fashioned way instead of wasting your money and time.
However – a great use of Polyshades in my humble opinion: when a stain job has gone horribly wrong. I wasn’t about to resand, restrip and restain this tabletop again, oh no nelly! I could have painted the table white, but I really wanted a wood-tone finish on the tabletop. So on top of the blotchy stain, I put two coats of Polyshades (1/4 Ebony to 3/4 Red Mahogany), then added 4 coats of clear satin polyurethane on top. For added durability I coated it with carnauba wax.
Despite a few hiccups, I am ecstatic with how it came out. Mark and I both love the rich color and with all the coats of poly and wax on it, the finish is hard as a rock.
To seal and protect the chairs and table legs, I wiped on Stays Clear Polyurethane, which doesn’t yellow over white paint like regular poly does.
Even after this extreme makeover, the table and chairs are far from perfect. They still have lots of dents and dings and marks, but I’m okay with that.
Real life gets lived in this house. On this table, school projects will be worked on. Meals will be served and vegetables will be rejected. Scrabble will be played, and mom will win. The paint will get chipped, the chairs will need a scrubbing. Discussions and laughs and admonishments and love will be poured out at this table.
Wishing you happy times and real life around your own table, my friend!
The kitchen table really is the center of a home! The dark stained top with the white is beautiful. Thanks for posting so many great tips. I'm pinning this for a kitchen table turned arts and crafts table that I need to refinish.
The table looks gorgeous! Love the dark top!
This is so helpful! I worked on a dresser top last year with some spotty issues, so I'll definitely remember your tips. It turned out beautifully. Looks brand new, but better with all of your wonderful memories.
How you could ever get rid of it after all the memories? Paint and Stain are obviously the perfect answer…absolutely better than new! Beautiful job, Lisa!
Lisa~The table looks great. We have a very similar table that is natural wood on top and chairs are hunter green. It is so hard to keep clean. I need to do this project on it sometime in the near future.
Love it, looks so nice with the white chairs! I have a coffee table I'd like to stain, right not it has a pebble paint color on it with black paint underneath, I wonder if the poly stain would work? Guess I'll have to give it a try!
Love the dark table top! Which is right on trend! Very Stylish!
You get a gold star for refinishing your table so many times. I don't have the patience to do it once! Think of the money you've saved. It looks wonderful, Lisa!
Can I just say how much I love how you write?! So much love for your family comes pouring out. You are doing a fantastic job with those kiddoes.
Wow that looks so good, I tried to paint my table top white it looked horrible so I had to sand it all off it is back to the original natural wood!
It looks so much brighter and fresher now!
I love the dark top! Amazing how it has transformed!
oh this is lovely! nicely done! I am your newest follower btw!
What a lovely post – I've used polyshades with great success, but only a a piece of furniture that doesn't have heavy traffic like a kitchen table does. I really like seeing how your style has changed through the years – hard to believe you've had the same table all that time.
What a touching story! It makes me wish my parents still had the dining room table we had when I was growing up. So worth all the work you put into it!
Lisa, it turned out beautiful! I love the dark top and white base. The chairs look great too. Great staining tips.
I just love the makeover on your table. It looks great. Thanks for all of the tips. We are considering stripping our table and staining it a darker color. Thanks for sharing at DIYbyDesign.
Gosh, Lisa! I am so impressed with your persistence. You worked your way through different products to achieve a marvellous transformation. It is almost a family heirloom and looks pristine (inspite of dings and dents). Well done!
What an awesome table transformation! I would love for you to link up at may party going on now at Jillify It! Hope to see you there!
Wow – can you share some of your awesomeness with me?? Love this.
I LOVE it like this! It's stunning and modern and perfect.
It's beautiful! No need for new furniture, not when you can do that! I really like that your table has history with it, I hope you keep it for a long time! This makes me want to paint my black chairs white now….hmmmm. Spray painting season is coming soon!
ACK! I love it! The dark top with the white looks so pretty! Oh – and thanks for the tip on the stays clear poly – I hadn't heard of that before. I've always used polycrylic with descent results but I'm going to try the stays clear stuff next time for sure!
That is an awesome change Lisa. Looks so sharp in your kitchen. You did a great job!
Oh what a fresh and pretty look!
Just lovely! Found you at Simple Details blog. Looking forward to looking around your blog some more!!
I love your table! I am using your as inspiration for mine. I just finished staining the table top and tomorrow I will be applying the satin poly. Wish me luck!

Refactoring and its testing implications/crossover have emerged over recent years to become important inter-related research topics with high industrial resonance. Many issues and problems still remain unexplored in these two highly-related fields incorporating topics such as the theoretical underpinnings of refactoring, Test Driven Development, empirical studies, refactoring of test artefacts, code smell analysis and patterns (both design and micro) to name just a few. Refactoring also has a growing importance in the monitoring of system’s evolution and the propensity of systems to minimise maintenance effort and fault propensity; the over- riding question, still largely unanswered, is whether we can quantify the benefits of refactoring.
The purpose and goal of the RefTest Workshop is to bring together industrial practitioners and academics in a setting where current issues in refactoring and test crossover can be presented, relationships with testing discussed, results from current research in refactoring/testing disseminated and future directions distilled.
Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit papers (approximately 7-10 pages) in Springer format, guidelines: http://www.springer.com/series/7911 format. All submissions will be peer-reviewed. At least one of the authors of accepted papers should attend the Workshop to present the paper.
Accepted paper will be published on line on the workshop website.
After a second round review, extended papers (with 30% additional material) will be published on the Springer LNBIP.
We welcome academic and industrial contributions.

considerably larger as Fractus recommends in antenna datasheet.
Please see PCB idea in attached file.
to the design of our DIP module which accepts both ZE WA and IA.
I have Telit democase based on ZE50-2.4. Is the layout of ZE51-2.4 DIP modules the same?
My PCB is rev.B 905.001.476. Pictures in ZE51-2.4 datasheet show rev A 905.001.393.
Can I use this pictures as example of good universal layout for ZE51 with and without antenna?
your design can be considered as a good layout for ZE51 IA and WA.
I have three ZE61-2.4 evaluation boards (Telit). I have updated “FY.T01.03-B002.s28” firmware in two boards, now both boards is not responding any commands.
Please let me know, what I did wrong with module.
are you using our SRmanager tool to manage the modules?
if yes (after flashing the module) you have to manage the module selecting S-One as technologies and 19200 as baudrate. In fact “FY.T01.03-B002.s28” it is a SW test based on star protocol.

Among other discoveries, scientists at EOVSA have learned that radio emissions in a flare are spread over a much larger region than previously known, indicating that high-energy particles are promptly transported in large numbers throughout the explosive magnetic field 'bubble' called a coronal mass ejection (CME).
Initially, he and his colleagues were unable to tap into these new regions, however. After the array was completed, they realized that cell phone towers in the Owens Valley were causing much higher levels of radio frequency interference than expected. As a result, they designed 'notch' filters that were able to cut out the frequencies most affected by cell towers.

This is an especially attractive alternative to transportation that uses fossil fuels and depletes the ozone layer. Perfect for the older child or teenager who needs to get back and forth to school or part-time jobs, the Razor E200 electric scooter can run for about 40 minutes, continuously. Riding an electric scooter such as the Razor E200 is nearly intuitive. Controls are elementary, balance is just the same as riding a bike, and stopping is quick and safe, with the simple hand brake.
A chain driven, high-torque motor powers the rear wheel and speeds of about 19 miles per hour can be attained on level surfaces. The frame and the front fork are all steel; the foot deck is full sized. Eight-inch pneumatic tires make the ride comfortable. Energy to the motor is supplied by a sealed battery pack of two (2) 12-volt lead acid rechargeable batteries. Maximum capacity is about 120 pounds.
Priced below £200, the economical electric scooter would make a good gift. The battery charger is included with the scooter and some simple assembly is required. A retractable kickstand keeps the scooter upright when not in use. Young people may gain a sense of independence with this reliable form of transportation.

There is more to industrial furniture than just for industrial use. Its design elements are reason enough why they are becoming popular for non-industrial purposes. Gone are the days where you only see them in industrial environments because now, you can see them in your dens and dining rooms. This type of furniture has paved the way for vintage settings. From wood-backed metal chairs to A-frames, all these and more can surely transform into antique bar tools and dining room tables. Living rooms become chicer with the use of scissor lift coffee tables. Using a fresh coat of paint to the basic metal industrial chair, you can make any sidewalk cafe look brighter than dull.
There are a lot of ways for old industrial furniture to be transformed for them to enter the contemporary interior design industry. You may have these old industrial furniture pieces left to rot or rust and be broken down or melted away into raw materials. This brings about new life to any modern interior design. For the most part, you see these industrial furniture pieces repurposed into distinct and unique art pieces and furnishings. Because of these products, industrial shelving, chairs, and tables, and random components can be more useful than ever. For instance, there are bookcases made of caster wheels with some vintage industrial shelving hanging between pipes that have been joined together. There are just plenty other uses to this piece of industrial furniture that was only intended for warehouses and labs.
Currently, there are a lot of uses to old industrial furniture that you can then proceed to use in your modern home or office. While looking for possible industrial furniture pieces to add to your office or home, make sure to choose convenience and durability. Of course, you can expect all industrial furniture to be durable for their industrial uses. Modern-day consumers choose to get them to add to their modern interior design because they know that strong materials were used in their construction. Steel used in table legs, for one, is capable of withstanding the impact of toy cars, skateboards, cat claws, and the like. If you are thinking of buying reliable industrial furniture for your home or office, you can choose to get the new ones than the used ones. When it comes to some buyers, they want to use industrial furniture for them to restore them accordingly to their preferences. In addition, you see some that do not do all of these; so, instead, they go for new industrial furniture options for sale.
Choosing new industrial furniture is more convenient for more people. Buying new industrial furniture can make do even if your goal is to put together pipes and turn them into a vintage coffee table as a base. Industrial furniture also brings about convenience with their basic details and features. These industrial furniture pieces include heavy furniture with wheels as well as dining tables with adjustable height features.

Archie, which objects best express beauty in motion?
Miss Grundy asks Archie which piece of modern art he likes best.
Veronica is confident in her effect on men, due to her effect on Archie. That is, until she sees Betty's effect on the handsome Craig.
Jinx has Greg in a spin.
How do I look in bell bottoms, Ron??
Veronica makes catty remarks about Betty's fashion sense.
Betty's parents refuse to allow Betty to wear her miniskirt and mesh stockings and no coat out in twenty degree weather just because Veronica did it.
Veronica is being even more insufferable and aloof than usual.
Betty demands Veronica allow her to see Archie without interference. When Veronica happily agrees, it turns Betty into a raving paranoid.

As I understand it, Tor clients can download "descriptors" from "directory caches" instead of download them directly from the directory authorities. This is to avoid overloading the network.
But I have seen that these three terms are sometimes used identically. In the context of the Tor network, are these three terms synonymous? Are there differences between them?
I also took a look at the current spec (v3) which isn't as clear about it but I got the impression that it is used interchangeably.
I believe that includes directory caches/mirrors and authorities which would mean the meaning of directory server slightly differs.
Keep in mind that just because there is a formal definition for the terms, it doesn't mean it is used that way in the wild. I'd not be surprised to see all three word used synonymously.

Budding scientist and avid Boy Scout Herby Strange is concerned about world overpopulation and has an idea to make more room for all the people and animals. While concocting a formula to shrink living things, he accidentally shrinks himself to a height of six inches. Herby encounters one unfortunate and entertaining predicament after another, which he faces with bravery, resourcefulness, and determination. He is kidnapped for ransom but escapes into a mountain wilderness teeming with wild animals. He spends several days in a deserted campground building a boat from trash so that he can sail to the marina across the lake and find help. Herby survives the crossing, but is caught in the current going over the spillway, and is swept down and onward to further adventures. Only his own ingenuity and the skills he learned in Boy Scouts, save Herby from the many perils he faces on his long journey back home.
Not only is this book fun to read, there's much to learn about nature, animals, and wilderness survival.

Couple weeks ago I stumbled into medieval arabic cookery after a long while. I must admit that it is an area that I am not most familiar with. I have always liked spiced meatballs and medieval arabic food. I have not made the food much but I have enjoyed couple excellent medieval arabic feasts. For example it is hard to forget the great feast Niina (Kaukis) made last Cudgel Wars!
Mix the sauce ingredients together and let the sauce stand for couple hours. Mix together well the ground beef/lamb/mutton and rest of the ingredients and put the meat dough to the fridge for at least half an hour. Shape small round (palm size) patties from meat and fry them in olive oil until done. (Decorate patties with lavendel) Serve hot with the sauce.
*Murri nagî= means a certain type of andalusian murri. Murri in other hand is a form of condiment, that has been used in arabic food but which use has significantly decrease after 14th century. If you don’t have time to do your own murri or you are not able to get ingredients for it or closer substitute sauces, then you can always use soy sauce. I am not very fond of using substitutes but in this case I have bend my precepts and used soy sauce.
Comments: I wasn´t able to find lard that is suitable for arabic food from my grocery so I did leave it out.

YouBike - Staying Fit And Active With Cerebral Palsy - FIT AND WRITE!
May 24 2016 Update: Corrected founder of Youbike.
For people living with cerebral palsy, staying fit and active can often prove to be a challenge. However, recent research has shown that an active lifestyle can greatly improve the overall quality of life experienced by those with cerebral palsy.
The benefits of taking regular exercise amount to more than simply increasing fitness levels. A frequently followed fitness regime can improve a person’s functionality and make daily activities far easier to perform. Couple this with the reductions in other health complications and it’s easy to see why individuals with CP should look toward upping the amount of physical activity they do day-to-day.
Not only will physical activity make you feel better straight away by giving you an endorphin release, the long-term benefits are numerous too. Maintaining muscle mass will help with coordination and your Lean Body Mass (LBM) is what drives your metabolism and keeps you going each and every day.
Similarly, regular exercise will help you maintain a healthy weight and strengthen your heart as well. By keeping off the excess pounds your body will be better equipped to cope with the strains of everyday life.
What Type Of Exercise Is Available For Me?
Thankfully, the types of exercises that you can do if you have CP are wide and varied. Simple stretching will improve flexibility initially and weight training can be introduced in order to build strength and tone underused muscle groups.
It is important to start off slowly if you have been doing little or no exercise of late. Simple things such as gardening, cleaning your home, and walking or wheeling to places where you would ordinarily use the car all count.
Once you feel ready to pick up the pace a little, and if you are capable of doing so, running and cycling are great ways to get some cardiovascular workouts in so that you can improve your aerobic capacity. Alternatively, for wheelchair users, swimming, arm cranking and wheeling work well too.
You Bike offers another alternative for those in wheelchairs, and it gives the user the opportunity to work both upper and lower body simultaneously. This can benefit in terms of flexibility, increased bone structure and strength, and improve lung capacity too. Best of all, this can be done in the comfort of your own home whenever you’re ready to work out. The same type of exercise is used to help stroke victims to recover.
Numerous sports, from hand cycling to swimming, circuit training to wheelchair basketball, are available depending on what level of CP you have. Your physiotherapist will be able to advise you on what type of activity will suit you best and quite often one sport will lead to another. Getting started is the most important thing.
Setting yourself achievable goals will help you to progress and give you something to work towards. These can be really simple, such as setting yourself a certain amount of time each day purely for physical exercise and gradually increasing the length of time as your fitness improves.
Naturally, it is crucial that you keep safety uppermost in your mind when embarking on a new exercise program. Consult your doctor prior to starting out and ask for any help or advice on how best to proceed.
If you are going to make use of your local gym or leisure center, be sure to take advantage of any induction that may be offered to you. This will give you an opportunity to find out how to use the machinery in the safest possible way. If they do not offer an induction, ask for one.
When you start out, know your own limits too and listen to what your body is telling you. Start off slow; injury isn’t going to help. Most important of all, however, is that you have fun. Getting fit can be extremely rewarding, so enjoy it and all of the benefits that it will bring to your life.

Because tree-ring measurements can be used to estimate the influence of environmental forces on annual wood production [1,2], they have been recognized as a key resource to provide a long-term perspective of the growth response to global environmental changes [3,4]. According to the principle of aggregate tree growth, tree-ring series contain information about a combination of drivers, including not only climate, but also age-related growth trends, soil conditions, disturbances, inter-tree competition, and random processes, working at different spatial scales.
The traditional dendrochronological approach consists of building annually dated tree-ring chronologies, either to reconstruct climate variables (dendroclimatology) or to date and analyze disturbances and variations in the local environment (dendroecology) . Quality control of ring width measurements and dating (crossdating) is usually performed to ensure proper identification of the exact years of formation of annual rings . Raw ring width time series of a given population are typically standardized, i.e. long-term growth trends are removed to isolate interannual changes, and averaged into a single master chronology representative of the local signal. Averaging tree-ring series at the stand scale minimizes tree-scale noise, although the residual growth signal still contains stand-scale noise from local topography, soil conditions, inter-tree competition, and local disturbances, in addition to climate [7,8].
In recent decades, broad-scale networks of tree-ring measurements have allowed relationships between species-specific growth and thermal and moisture variations to be studied at the local, regional, continental, or near-hemispheric scales . Averaging ring width time series over broad spatial scales provides a better assessment of the commonly shared interannual growth patterns, and reduces tree- and stand-scale noise . It has indeed been demonstrated that the accuracy of regional chronologies and the assessment of climate-growth relationship tend to improve more by increasing the number of plots rather than the number of trees per plot . Consequently, broad-scale tree-ring networks could increase our capacity to estimate species-specific climate sensitivity and to predict forest responses to environmental changes at regional scales , while providing more robustness for broad-scale climate reconstructions . For this reason, multiple regional-scale networks of tree-ring measurements have been established over the last decade [9,14], the rationale being that tree-ring records from networks covering broad areas should be representative of commonly shared growth patterns as the weight of local, non-climatic factors is reduced [9,10,15]. Furthermore, the spatial coherence of independent tree-ring chronologies from broad areas thus plausibly reflects broad-scale climate forcing .
Most broad-scale dendroclimatic studies produced over the past few decades have made extensive use of the International Tree-Ring Data Bank (ITRDB), the largest open-access tree-ring archive managed by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration [4,17,18]. The database currently includes tree-ring width chronologies from 4,467 studies. However, few chronologies have been updated and the number of new chronologies being added is declining. Thus, more than three quarters of the ITRDB chronologies do not extend beyond the year 2000 . This and the lack of spatial representativity could have negative consequences for paleoclimatic investigations, in addition to precluding the integration of tree-ring width data with the increasingly available data from instrumental weather stations, remote sensing, national forest inventories, and other in situ measurements of forest growth [4,19]. Moreover, tree-ring data are mostly distributed in North America and Europe, focusing on marginal growing environments selected to maximize the climatic signal, and the selective sampling of the biggest trees within populations (with the aim of producing long chronologies) often leads to bias in archived datasets. This further limits their usability for dendroecological investigations and for documenting the global forest response to contemporary environmental changes [4,18,20,21].
Recent studies demonstrate that rudimentary increment core sampling (i.e. sampling with low replication at the stand level) from National Forest Inventories (NFI) may potentially be used for dendroecological investigations [22–31]. Indeed, although tree-ring sampling is rudimentary or non-existent in some NFIs , many NFIs include increment core samples that were taken to age stands and determine site index, as well as to estimate annual average tree growth [23,26–28,31].
Increment core samples from NFIs are typically poorly replicated at the plot level as compared to classic dendrochronological sampling, which limits the possibility of crossdating validation at the plot scale. Although crossdating is not a prerequisite for forest inventories (i.e. tree age and site index estimation) , the presence of a significant proportion of poorly crossdated chronologies in a dataset could violate one of the fundamental principles of dendrochronology and thus seriously jeopardize the potential of the NFI dataset for any study requiring knowledge of the exact year of formation of annual rings in increment cores . Considering the huge effort invested in the sampling and processing of NFI tree-ring databases, it would, however, be unfortunate if the scientific community were unable to use these tree-ring data because of the above-mentioned issue. On the other hand, NFIs have much higher spatial densities and are generally designed to be geographically unbiased and spatially representative of the forest cover [23,25,26]. Developing a procedure that would permit researchers to extract a reliable dendroclimatic signal from NFI tree-ring data would provide an extraordinary opportunity to strengthen the spatial coverage of tree-ring width data in terms of climate zone, species composition, and forest productivity, and to increase coordination with long-term monitoring plots in NFIs [4,26].
In this study, we assessed whether reliable and spatially coherent signals can be extracted from an extensive collection of tree-ring width measurements from 94,000 black spruce trees sampled in 34,000 stands distributed across 583,000 km2 in Quebec, Canada. Because climatic factors are less spatially heterogeneous than non-climatic factors, we hypothesized that (i) reliable tree-ring signals may be assessed at various spatial scales, but that the amount of covariance within tree-ring signals would be negatively correlated with geographic distance among trees, and (ii) for a given spatial scale of tree-ring width series aggregation, coherency among master chronologies will decrease with geographical distance.
Historical forest inventory programs in Quebec, Canada, were mainly conducted below the current northern limit for forest management, which extends from latitude 45° to 52°N and covers approximately 583,000 km2, of which 434,667 km2 are classified as productive forest, i.e. more than 30 m3 ha-1 of wood produced in 120 years. This territory is characterized by three different forest subzones from South to North: hardwood forest, temperate mixed-wood forest and continuous boreal forest. The temperate mixed-wood forest (latitude 47° to 48°N) marks the transition between the hardwood forest to the south, which is dominated by sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.), and the coniferous forest to the north, which is dominated by balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) and black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.). Normal mean annual temperatures (1971–2000) range from approximately -4.7 oC to 6.7 oC while annual precipitation ranges from approximately 700 mm to 1600 mm. At the beginning of the 20th century, logging was confined to areas south of latitude 49°N, but now extends up to latitude 51°N. Along with forest management, fire and spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana Clemens) outbreaks are the main broad-scale disturbances regulating boreal forest dynamics .
Forest inventory programs conducted by provincial forest authorities use temporary and permanent sample plots to comprehensively characterize existing forest resources. The forest inventory is based on a stratified randomized sampling design with proportional allocation. Forest stands interpreted from aerial photographs were first stratified based on stand characteristics (composition, density, height, age), edaphic properties (slope, drainage, deposit), and disturbance history . Circular plots (radius = 11.28 m, area = 400 m2) were then proportionally allocated to each stratum according to their respective surface area . In each plot, the diameter and visual health of every tree, the composition of the understory and soil thickness, deposit type, and drainage class were recorded. Increment cores were collected in both permanent and temporary sample plots according to strict sampling protocols [35,36]. In each temporary sample plot, three trees (diameter at breast height (DBH) > 90 mm) were cored at one meter above ground: one was selected randomly, another was selected randomly among the four biggest trees (in DBH) of the dominant species, and the third had a diameter closest to the mean diameter of the dominant tree species. In permanent sample plots, up to nine trees were cored: five were selected randomly; two were selected randomly among the four biggest trees (in DBH) of the dominant species; one had a diameter close to the mean diameter of the dominant tree species; and the last had a basal area at breast height closest to the 30th percentile of the distribution of stem basal area for the dominant species. The current study uses complete increment core data for black spruce trees, collected from 34,105 permanent and temporary sample plots, for a total of 94,120 black spruce trees (Fig 1). Approximately 90% of the sampled black spruce stands contain 3 tree core samples or less and only 0.16% of the sampled sites contain 10 or 11 black spruce samples.
Fig 1. Map showing the location of tree-ring sample sites.
Red triangles show the locations of the ten reference chronologies while green points show the locations where cores of black spruce trees were sampled in national forest inventories in Quebec, Canada.
Cores were dried, glued to a wooden holder, and sanded successively with 120, 220 and 320 grit sandpaper to obtain a smooth surface. Ring boundaries were first carefully detected and identified under binocular magnification by specialized technicians, then measured to the nearest 0.01 mm with the WinDendro Image Analysis System for tree-ring measurement (Regent Instruments Inc.) after scanning the sample at a resolution of 1000 dots per inch. A calendar year was attributed to each ring, the outermost ring corresponding to the year of tree sampling, or exceptionally to the year before for plots sampled prior to the start of tree-ring formation.
It is well known that obtaining tree-ring data is costly and time-consuming [23,26]. Due to the substantial number of samples processed (94,000 cores) and the low sample replication at the stand level (one to eleven trees of the same species per plot, i.e. depends on stand and region level tree diversity), tree-ring width measurements were carefully dated but their crossdating was not validated at the stand level according to the standard procedure before archiving the information in the database.
Dendrochronologists generally use computer-assisted quality control of tree-ring dating and measurements. COFECHA is the most commonly used program for that purpose . In the absence of an established reference chronology for a given region and species, the standard procedure consists of removing low-frequency variations, averaging data to form a master dating series, and correlating individual transformed series with the master dating series . The program can thus be used to accept or reject a series for inclusion in a site chronology . We used a similar procedure (described below) to apply an a posteriori validation procedure to correctly select individual tree chronologies and extract reliable signals at various spatial scales from Quebec’s extensive NFI tree-ring database.
The most common approach for analyzing broad-scale tree-ring signals is to group trees cored from nearby plots and to build a regional chronology for each climatically homogeneous zone defined within the study area . In this study, trees were grouped based on the similarity and proximity of their environments to generate master chronologies at various spatial scales using the Land Hierarchical Classification System (LHCS) developed by the Quebec Ministry of Forest, Wildlife and Parks . The LHCS organizes the territory into units similar in climate, vegetation, or geomorphology at 11 nested spatial scales. At the finest scale, the territory is separated into 2,545 ecological districts (median area: 228 km2), grouped into 185 landscape units (median area: 3,165 km2), grouped into 71 sub-regions (median area: 8,726 km2) (Fig 2). Because the LHCS does not explicitly take into account the local soil physical environment, we also grouped sites by soil physical environmental types (nested to the LHCS) according to soil type (mineral, organic), moisture regime, and texture as determined during field sampling (Table 1).
Fig 2. Example of the hierarchical structure of the forest Land Hierarchical Classification System (LHCS) developed by the Quebec Ministry of Forest, Wildlife and Parks.
The provincial territory is separated into 12 bioclimatic domains (thick lines) and sub-domains (thin lines) (A). Each of them is separated according to land region (thick lines) and sub-region (thin lines) (B), these latter being separated into landscape units (thick lines) and ecological districts (thin lines) (C).

The study was conducted for the 1900–2012 period. In order to emphasize year-to-year variability in tree-ring series and to remove non-climatic trends due to tree age, stem size, stand dynamics, as well as mid-term trends in climate, we fitted each individual series with a cubic smoothing spline with a 50%-frequency cut-off at ten years . We used a highly flexible spline function to remove most of the low-frequency variations and focus on high-frequency variations mainly associated with interannual climate variability. Ring-width measurements were transformed into dimensionless indices by dividing raw values with spline function estimates. Because the autocorrelative structure present in tree-ring series can blur the climatic signal and interfere with several statistical assumptions, autoregressive models of various orders were fitted to each standardized tree-ring series, the best one was selected using the Akaike Information Criterion , and the residual series were retained for the study .
Spearman correlation coefficients were computed between each individual standardized tree-ring series of a given spatial unit and its corresponding average chronology using bi-weighted robust estimates of the means of all standardized series . Individual series that were significantly correlated (p < 0.05) to this “raw” mean regional chronology were used to compute a new “refined” average regional chronology. Spearman correlation coefficients were again computed between each individual standardized tree-ring series and this refined average regional chronology. Here again, significantly correlated series were used to recompute the refined regional chronology. Finally, Spearman correlation coefficients were computed between all individuals composing that regional chronology and the refined chronology itself, and only significantly correlated series were kept building a refined regional chronology. This last step was iteratively repeated until all individual tree samples included in the regional chronologies were significantly correlated to it (p < 0.05). In comparison with our approach, COFECHA used a threshold probability value of 0.01 to underline and flag possible problems in tree-ring width series. The processing of raw tree-ring width measurements was completed using the “dplR” package in the R software . Regional chronologies were considered valid when they displayed an expressed population signal (EPS) value ≥ 0.85. While frequently misinterpreted as an indicator of chronology suitability for climate reconstruction purposes, EPS is a measure of how well the chronology signal is a good estimator of the population signal [44,45]. The statistic estimates the strength of the common signal relative to the total signal (common signal + noise) in a tree-ring time series .
Autocorrelative structure is inherent in individual tree-ring series. As a result, improperly dated individual series can still be significantly correlated to the average chronology, increasing the probability of false-positive selection. As previously mentioned, autoregressive structure was removed from individual standardized series. To explore the probability of false-positive selection associated to the remaining autocorrelative structure in standardized series, the population distribution of first-order autocorrelation has been documented.
In order to verify that the rejected series did not contain any additional hidden signals, we applied our selection procedure to the rejected data for each spatial unit and scale. A principal component analysis (PCA) was also computed on the scaled matrix of all residual series in each spatial unit for each spatial scale to ensure that the selected residual series represent the dominant signal in the group of series.
As performed by the COFECHA program, to allow detection of dating error, rejected standardized series have been tested for correlation, segment by segment, against their respective regional chronologies built at the landscape scale. This has been performed by calculating correlations for each segment of the series under examination with the regional chronology at the point of dating, and also at each position from 5 years earlier (-5) to 5 years later (+5) . Segment tested are 22 years long (1944–1965, 1955–1976, 1966–1987), restricting the analyses to the 1944–1987 period.
Reliability of the computed chronologies at various spatial scales was assessed by computing several descriptive statistics, including the mean correlation of individual residual series with their corresponding master chronologies (Mcor), the mean correlation between all pairs of residual series (Rbar), and the EPS [44,46].
We assessed spatial coherency among master chronologies by analyzing the spatial autocorrelation between independently built chronologies at each spatial scale. Correlations (Spearman's rho) were expressed as a function of distance (i.e. correlograms) considering the centroid of the spatial unit as the reference point. Similarly, we assessed spatial coherency among mean annual temperature and yearly precipitation time series. We simulated temperature and precipitation (1901–2012) for each centroid of the spatial unit with the BioSIM stochastic weather generator . BIOSIM provides forecasts based on regional air temperature and precipitation, interpolated from nearby weather stations and adjusted for elevation and location differentials with regional gradients. To remove long-term trends and isolate interannual changes, climate time series were standardized using the same procedure as used for tree-ring time series.
We also assessed the coherency of master chronologies by analyzing correlations between our chronologies and classic neighbouring reference chronologies built at the stand scale. For the area under study, nine black spruce reference chronologies from the International Tree-Ring Data Bank (ITRDB) and an additional seven black spruce reference chronologies from the Réseau d’étude et de surveillance des écosystèmes forestiers (RESEF) monitoring network were available. From the nine ITRDB chronologies, only four included the raw tree-ring series, allowing us to perform a uniform data standardization. Out of these four ITRDB chronologies, one displayed EPS values below 0.85 for the 1900–1988 period, and was thus rejected. The remaining ten chronologies (three from the ITRDB and seven from the RESEF) are well distributed spatially (Fig 1), contain 24 to 50 trees, and display mean correlations to the master chronology, EPS value and Rbar of 0.62 (range 0.52–0.73), 0.95 (range 0.91–0.98) and 0.43 (range 0.31–0.55), respectively (Table 2). We assessed the coherency of new master chronologies by calculating Spearman correlations between independently built chronologies and the ten neighbouring classic reference chronologies at the two finest spatial scales (district and landscape). We limited the comparison to chronologies located within a 40-km radius (district) and 80-km scale (landscape). The extent of the radius was determined as a reasonable trade-off between spatial proximity and the number of chronologies.
Table 2. Characteristics of the reference crossdated black spruce chronologies used to validate the newly formed chronologies.
Overall, our validation process is similar to the framework used for building the Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) tree-ring data set in the U.S. where quality control was conducted by comparing chronologies with the closest available public chronology from the ITRDB and with unpublished chronologies in gap areas, and by using the COFECHA program to assess the quality of measurements and dating .
Depending on the spatial scale considered, our iterative selection procedure retained 35.7% to 73.2% of all available samples, and 60.7% to 81.2% of all sites, the number and proportion of selected trees and sites (inventory plots) were decreasing as the grouping area increased (Table 3). As compared to the initial selection with the iterative procedure, comparable sample selection ratios were observed when rejecting chronologies with EPS values lower than 0.85, except for the finest spatial scale. In those cases, the selection ratio was considerably lowered by the EPS criteria due to the low sample frequencies per spatial unit (Table 3). Using the soil physical environment for grouping slightly increased the number of sites and trees retained by the iterative procedure and slightly improved the quality of the valid chronologies (EPS, Mcor, and Rbar, Table 3). It might have been interesting to detail whether there were differences in chronologies among soil physical environment types, but this analysis was beyond the scope of the study. The number of valid chronologies generated also depended on the spatial scale considered, with one chronology covering 100% of the territory being generated at the meridional scale and 562 chronologies covering 35% of the territory being generated at the smallest, district, scale. Their reliability, as indicated by Mcor and Rbar statistics, generally decreases as the grouping area increases.

The distance correlogram computed from correlations between tree-ring and climate chronologies displays a strong spatial autocorrelation (Fig 3). The negative effect of distance on the common signal between master chronologies can be described as non-linear exponential decay, with the highest rate of coherence loss at short distances, from rho = 0.75±0.12 between 30 km-distant populations to rho = 0.51±0.13 between 180 km-distant populations. Populations separated by more than 1,220 km still present a common signal (asymptotic rho = 0.12±0.004, Fig 3). This non-linear, negative relationship is similarly observed at all spatial scales. Fig 3 also illustrates that coherence over distance is much higher for mean annual temperature chronologies than yearly precipitation chronologies and ring-width signals.

Spearman correlations, averaged per binned distance (30-km intervals), were used to compare chronologies. The blue area represents the standard deviation from the means. The exponentially decreasing pattern is identical across all spatial scales.
Fig 4 summarizes the analysis of correlations between valid master chronologies built at the two finest spatial scales (district and landscape) and neighbouring reference chronologies built at the stand scale. The interannual growth variations of the newly formed chronologies are well synchronized with reference chronologies at both spatial scales. On average, Spearman’s correlation coefficients between newly formed chronologies and reference chronologies ranged from 0.37 to 0.69 for the chronologies built at the district scale, while they ranged from 0.52 to 0.75 for the chronologies built at the landscape scale (Fig 4). For seven out of ten reference chronologies, the fit with the reference chronology was slightly better with chronologies built at the landscape scale as compared to chronologies built at the finest spatial scale (ecological district).

Only chronologies located within a 40-km radius (district scale) or 80-km radius (landscape scale) of the reference chronologies were used. Radius was determined as the distance between the centroid of the spatial unit and the location of the stand sampled for the reference chronology. Average Spearman correlations (ρ) and associated standard deviations are shown.
First-order autocorrelation of individual standardized series was, on average (±1 SE) 0.0176±0.0003 revealing a low probability of false-positive selection associated to the remaining autocorrelative structure in standardized series. Our analysis revealed that the chronologies formed with the selection procedure represent the largest fraction of the trees sharing a common signal and that no coherent signal may be identified among a large part of the rejected series (Fig 5). The computation of correlations between rejected residual series and the retained chronology for each spatial scale confirmed that >80% of rejected residual series are significantly correlated to the retained chronology at P<0.05 when lagged by one to five years.

In addition to the average number of selected series per spatial unit (deep blue), the figure also displays groups of significantly correlated series when selected series are excluded and the filtering procedure is repeated on remaining data, while the grey bar represents the number of remaining series after five iterations of the filtering procedure. Error bars are standard deviations from the means.
Principal component analysis also revealed that selected series among each group exhibit a common dominant signal across the samples (Fig 6) and confirmed that the rejected series do not share common “hidden” signals. As mentioned earlier, our analysis rather suggests that a vast majority of the rejected series are simply incorrectly dated. Consequently, their signals were asynchronous and incoherent with the population signal.

Principal components 1 and 2 are displayed. Selected residual series are in deep blue and located at one end of PC1, while other colours represent significantly correlated groups of rejected series when selected series were excluded and the filtering procedure was repeated on remaining data. Lastly, the grey dots represent the remaining rejected series after five iterations of the filtering procedure.
Segmental crossdating analyses of rejected series against their respective regional chronologies revealed that low correlations between the rejected series and regional chronologies (mean Pearson coefficient (± 1 SE) = -0.12 ± 0.01) can be improved considerably (mean Pearson coefficient (± 1 SE) = 0.70 ± 0.01) by selecting segments which correlated higher at some position other than where it has been originally dated (Fig 7).

Distribution of segmental coefficients of correlation between rejected series and their respective landscape chronologies at the point of dating (red area, r = -0.12 ± 0.01), and at position (from 5 years earlier to 5 years later) which correlated higher with landscape chronologies than where it has been originally dated (blue area, r = 0.70 ± 0.01).
Segment tested are 22 years long (1944–1965, 1955–1976, 1966–1987) restricting analyses to the 1944–1987 period. Dotted lines illustrate median values.
The strong spatial autocorrelation among independently-built chronologies as well as their high coherence with reference chronologies built at the stand scales shows that coherent interannual growth signals can be extracted from NFI increment core samples at various spatial scales (see next section). Our first hypothesis was confirmed as the strength (Mcor and Rbar) of valid black spruce tree-ring signals (EPS ≥ 0.85) decreased from the local to broad scale (Table 3). The mean correlation of individual series to their master chronologies (Mcor) is nevertheless only slightly related to the spatial dispersion of the samples forming the chronologies. The Mcor statistic is indeed higher at finer spatial scales of sample agglomeration, but decreases exponentially as sample dispersion increases. These results suggest that broad-scale climate drivers partly regulate interannual tree growth variations over a broad spatial scale, but that locally, coherence in tree-ring chronologies is higher as they integrate tree response to local disturbances and smaller-scale climatic variability. Variability in growth response to climate due to tree’s genetic origin may also play a role in the observed pattern.
Accordingly, the proportion of individual series showing a coherent signal and retained by the selection procedure also decreased as sample dispersion increased. At the finest spatial scale studied (ecological district, median area 228 km2), nearly two thirds of the individual series (65.8%) from the large majority of the sites (84.6%) showed coherent tree-ring signals. This contrasts with the broadest spatial scale where only 35.7% of the series from slightly more than half of the sampled sites (60.7%) showed coherent signals. The lower sample selection ratio associated with broad-scale computations may be associated with the spatial variability of tree growth drivers inducing local or individual tree growth responses that could be asynchronous at broader scales. For example, trees may respond locally to a drought stress or an insect outbreak that blurs the broad-scale climate signal. These chronologies may exhibit high local coherency while being incoherent with the broad-scale signal. Consequently, these series are retained when the selection procedure is applied locally, but rejected by the selection procedure applied over a broad spatial scale. Series may also be rejected because they do not respond to interannual climate variability due to their growing conditions (i.e. suppressed or declining trees). At all spatial scales, however, additional analyses suggest that the vast majority of rejected series were simply incorrectly dated (see following sections).
Our analysis also revealed that constraining the variability associated with soil physical environments when computing chronologies increased the number of sites and trees retained by the selection procedure and slightly improved the strength of the chronologies (Mcor and Rbar). Considering soil physical environment reduces inter-site variability and thus slightly increases inter-tree signal coherence and the reliability of the computed chronologies. Biophysical variables affecting site quality and tree growth also influence inter-tree competition and thus their sensitivity to climate variability. It has been demonstrated, for instance, that soil organic matter thickness might affect black spruce climate–growth relationships [8,49] which is in good agreement with our observation.
Nevertheless, taking into account soil physical environment types for sample stratification inevitably results in lower sample replication within each stratum. Given that the EPS criterion is highly sensitive to sample replication, a higher fraction of the chronologies was thus rejected by the EPS criteria when soil physical environment type was considered (Table 3). Accordingly, comparable sample selection ratios were observed whether or not chronologies with EPS values lower than 0.85 were rejected, except for the finest spatial scale where the selection ratio was considerably lowered by the EPS criteria due to the low sample replication within each stratum.
Spatial variations in climate, coupled with spatial and temporal variability in the disturbance regime, necessarily induce noise in regional chronologies. The spatial scale at which tree-ring signals should be analyzed is based on the study objectives. The weaker coherence in tree-ring signals observed at broad spatial scales is compatible with those of higher within-plot correlations in tree-ring signals compared to between-plot correlations . Although coherence in tree-ring signals is weaker when computed over a broad spatial scale, it nevertheless assigns more weight to commonly shared growth patterns and reduces the emphasis on local, non-climatic factors [9,15].
The strong spatial autocorrelation reported in Fig 3 confirms our second hypothesis that spatial coherence among master chronologies decreases with geographical distance. Correlograms of ring width time series compare very well with those of Wettstein et al. who reported correlations between 762 standardized site chronologies (from the ITRDB), distributed throughout the Northern hemisphere as a function of geographic distance. Their analysis revealed that regionally dependent and species-specific ring width–local climate relationships translate into regionally dependent and species-specific correlograms of ring width time series.
Ring width and yearly precipitation chronologies exhibit weaker spatial coherence than mean annual temperature, confirming that standardized ring width time series not only reflect interannual temperature variability, but are also governed by factors related to water regime and various climate events inducing interannual growth variations . Many studies have indeed documented how tree growth at northern latitudes may respond to a variety of climate conditions, including seasonal temperature and precipitation, short-term events such as drought and heat waves, lagged effects from previous year conditions, snowfall, and melt timing (e.g. [31,50,51]).
In addition to the various climatic factors, non-climatic factors (e.g. insect defoliators, inter-tree competition, tree age, and site characteristics) also induce additional spatial variability in standardized ring width time series. A large part of these non-climatic signals was removed by the standardization processes; however, depending on the model flexibility used for standardization, non-climatic signals may partly remain in the ring width time series even after standardization. Accordingly, Wettstein et al. observed that high-pass filtered ring widths series that emphasize year-to-year variability in tree-ring series exhibit higher spatial coherence than low-pass filtered ring width series. We also acknowledge that errors associated with ring width measurements and dating also induce noise and contribute to weakening the spatial coherence in ring width time series. Researchers should thus be cautioned that all the factors mentioned above, alone or in combination, can reduce the spatial coherence of growth signals as compared to mean annual temperature chronologies.
Master chronologies built at the two finest spatial scales (district and landscape) are also coherent and very well synchronized with neighbouring classic reference chronologies built at the stand scale (Fig 4). Notably, the marked, but spatially asynchronous, growth decrease of black spruce trees at the end of the 1970s in response to the last spruce budworm outbreak is clearly visible in many chronologies and the signal is well synchronized with the reference chronologies . Interannual growth variations of lower amplitude that were presumably associated with interannual climate variability were also very well synchronized with the signals of the reference chronologies.
Overall, many series were rejected for every spatial scales studied because their signals were incoherent with the master chronology (Table 3). Many reasons may explain the incoherence with the master chronology. At the stand level, inter-tree competition and edaphic properties, known to influence growth responsiveness to climate [8,53,54], and local small-scale disturbances (e.g. partial windthrow, partial cutting, and low to moderate insect defoliation) may induce specific tree-ring signals that are incoherent with the average signal identified at broader spatial scales. Spatial variability in climate and microclimate may also induce specific regional tree growth responses that differ from the broad-scale signal. Accordingly, over broad spatial scales, fewer trees showed coherent signals with the master chronologies and were retained by our selection procedure as compared to local compilations (Table 3).
The selection procedure was also slightly biased toward the rejection of young trees, presumably because their chronologies were not long enough to be statistically correlated with the broad-scale signal of the average chronology or because of a divergent growth–climate relationship between young and old trees . There is indeed evidence that trees at young growth stages are driven primarily by inter-tree competition for light and much less by climate variation, such that climate signals are reduced . An alternative but not mutually exclusive hypothesis is that young fast growing trees growing in open stand conditions are less sensitive to climate variability compared to older trees.
Missing and false rings are generally perceived as a common source of error in tree-ring research. In certain years characterized by unfavorable growth conditions, a tree may not develop an annual ring (missing ring) because of a lack of cambial activity . However, such behavior is rather uncommon in temperate and boreal trees . The formed rings can also be very thin (microrings) and hardly detectable or they may be lacking at some point on the tree (locally absent) and consequently undetectable in a core sample. In addition, specific climatic conditions during the growing season may translate into the formation of a false ring (or double ring) . Missing and false rings can only be identified and located by crossdating. Chronological statistics – coupled with the high correlation among independently-built NFI chronologies and with reference chronologies built at the stand scale – nevertheless suggest that these growth anomalies do not have significant impacts on the quality of the NFI chronologies. The high sample replication and their wide distribution reduce the likelihood that all trees within a population will exhibit a synchronous missing or false ring.
The low residual first-order autocorrelation of individual standardized series revealed a low probability of false-positive selection associated to the remaining autocorrelative structure in standardized series. The computation of correlations between rejected residual series and the retained chronology confirmed that a large part of the rejected residual series are significantly correlated to the retained chronology when lagged by one to five years. In addition, segmental crossdating analyses of rejected series against their respective regional chronologies revealed that series crossdating can be improved considerably by selecting segments which correlated higher at some position (from 5 years earlier to 5 years later) other than where it has been originally dated. Such results suggest that a vast majority of rejected series are simply incorrectly dated and that crossdating of many rejected series may have been improved by implementing a quality control procedure to validate tree ring measurements and dating during sample processing.
A growing number of studies are revealing that there is a large underappreciated problem with tree ring data, which is that tree ring sampling procedures may lead to spurious growth trends as sampled trees are not representative of the entire cohort of trees that lived in the past [20,58–60]. This is particularly apparent in tree ring studies, where only living, dominant and co-dominant trees are sampled [20,58,59]. Systematic and relatively large sampling biases in tree ring studies are practically unavoidable. Just like the crossdating approach, our selection procedure is inevitably biased toward the selection of trees showing a common signal rejecting trees exhibiting incoherent signals. This has no implication for studies aiming to reconstruct high frequency historical climate variation from tree ring, but it may lead to biased interpretations and conclusions for studies documenting species-specific growth response to climate variability as growth-climate correlations would be overestimated in comparison with the entire tree population in a region. As a general statement, we therefore recommend great caution in interpreting results from tree ring studies and caution that sampled trees are rarely representative of the entire population.
In this study, we developed a procedure to select valid individual tree-ring width time series from an extensive collection of ring width measurements from nearly 94,000 black spruce trees distributed over a 500,000 km2 area and collected as part of the NFI in Quebec, Canada. Our results confirm that coherent signals may be extracted from large, raw increment core measurements and used for dendroclimatic investigations. Although signal coherency decreases with geographical distance between sample sites, the remaining signal is representative of large regional drivers such as climate. We thus conclude that tree-ring data from NFIs provide an extraordinary opportunity to strengthen the spatial coverage of tree-ring data in terms of climate zone, species composition, and forest productivity, and to improve coordination with other contemporary measurements of forest growth in order to provide a better understanding of tree growth–climate relationships over broad spatial scales.

With wine as its focus, but some cracking cocktails as well, this neighbourhood small plates spot is a welcome addition to the area.
The people behind Three Sheets are getting into the wine bar business with Top Cuvée in Highbury. Expect food from an ex-Naughty Piglets chef, a decent wine list to drink in or take away - and a few of their great cocktails too.
The huge new Woodberry Down development by Manor House now has its own pub. The Naturalist will be open all day and is setting itself up to offer a mean weekend brunch and Sunday lunch.
Finsbury Park gets a tiny hole in the wall sandwich shop aimed at chefs coming off shift and other late ngiht stop outs.
Featuring a wine list from the GM of the Laughing Heart, this is a wine bar worth seeking out.
Last year, Zelman Drinks opened its doors in Finsbury Park, taking over from retired neighbourhood boozer the Silver Bullet. Since then, they've added a residency from Spit and Roast and now they're having a cake day!
There are waves of excitement are rippling over north London this week following news that the Korean restaurant Dotori is about to reopen.

A PARTIALLY sighted woman and her guide dog resumed their 70-mile charity trek along the Kennet and Avon Canal on Saturday.
In July, partially-sighted Tracey Clarke began the trek from Bath to Reading with her guide dog, Oakley, to raise £5,000 for The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association.
Mrs Clarke was aiming to walk the route along the canal path in three weeks with her husband, Tim, following in the couple’s canal boat.
Unfortunately, the fundraiser was cut short when they reached Hungerford after her father-in-law died.
Now, following a two-and-a-half month hiatus, the 49-year-old has restarted her epic trek, beginning with a relaunch event at the Blue Ball pub in Kintbury.
Mrs Clarke said: “When we reached Hungerford, Tim’s dad took a fall and sadly passed away.
“With the help of friends, we were able to move the boat and I managed to walk to Kintbury, and then to Newbury, where we had to put things on hold.
“Now I can’t wait to get started again.
“Completing the walk is a personal challenge.
The fundraising relaunch featured a quiz and live music throughout the evening, while Mrs Clarke also gave a brief talk about her life on the waterways with Oakley.
The couple chose to raise money for the Guide Dogs for the Blind Charity after Mrs Clarke’s life was transformed by Oakley when she began to lose her vision in 2011.
She said: “Crossing roads became very hazardous and frightening.
However after qualifying with Oakley in 2012 Mrs Clarke has been able to regain her independence with both her and husband Tim eager to give something back to the charity.
She added: “We’ve far exceeded the £5,000 we set out to raise so we’ve been able to sponsor a puppy and named him Raymond, after Tim’s dad.
Mr Clarke added: “Tracey has worked tirelessly to make this walk a success, and I am really proud of her.

zerks'-ez: The name is an attempt to transliterate into Greek (Xerxes) the Persian Khshayarsha. The same word in unpointed Hebrew took the form 'chshwrsh, probably pronounced 'achshawarash, but at a later time it was wrongly vocalized so as to produce 'achashwerosh, from whence "Ahasuerus" in English versions of the Bible comes.

RENTON – After the Seahawks’ 31-10 exhibition win over San Diego on Thursday night, Seattle coach Pete Carroll briefly turned reporter.
He walked to the locker of receiver Stephen Williams, whose two catches for 83 yards sparked Seattle’s second-half offensive onslaught, and asked him the same question local media and fans have been wondering as well — what the heck went wrong during Williams’ three years in Arizona, anyway?
“I was just curious again what happened there because he looks like such a legit player,’’ Carroll said of Williams, whose blend of size (he stands 6-foot-5 and weighs 208 pounds) and speed (Carroll said he runs a 4.4-second 40-yard dash) has intrigued the Seahawks since they signed him as a free agent in January.
Williams looked like everything the Seahawks hoped for when they got him as he caught Tarvaris Jackson passes of 41 and 42 yards, the latter for a touchdown, in the process making a strong early claim for a roster spot.
From the sidelines, starting quarterback Russell Wilson marveled at the two plays.
Sounds almost too good to be true to find just sitting there on the waiver wire.
As is usually the case, though, the back story reveals a little more than the Cardinals simply missing on Williams.
Williams, in fact, drew similar raves during his first training camp with the Cardinals in 2010 when he made the team as an undrafted free agent from Toledo. He started three games early in his first season when injuries hit other receivers, including Larry Fitzgerald.
But as Williams says, “You are not going to take Larry out of the game at any time.’’ And when Fitzgerald and other receivers got healthy, Williams went back to the bench, finishing the season with nine catches.
Williams was also credited with four drops that season, and reports at the time said the Cardinals wanted to see more consistency out of him. He also didn’t participate on special teams, and in 2011 he was on the roster for the entire season but played in just two games (often appearing on the inactive list), without making a catch.
He thought he was on his way to getting back in the rotation last August when he injured his Achilles tendon in a practice shortly before the season.
“Pulled it off the bone on a Thursday practice just doing one-on-ones,’’ he said.
The Cardinals eventually waived Williams in December, which immediately piqued interest in the Seattle front office.
Williams said he didn’t need long to take Seattle’s offer of a two-year contract worth $1.2 million. And once he showed he was healthy, he also began to again display some of the traits that had initially intrigued Arizona.
The next step may be for Williams to show he can play some special teams, which may essentially be a requirement for the receivers at the bottom of the rotation.
“It is a factor, because some of the other guys (receivers battling for roster spots) are really good in special teams and he has to catch up a little bit there,’’ Carroll said.
Mostly, though, the Seahawks want to see if the glimpse that Williams gave in San Diego can become a long-running show.

Welcome to Year 3 - Monet!
Welcome to the Year 3 Monet Class. Our teacher's are Mrs Morris-Bowman and Mr Brown. We also have help from our class TA Mrs Gowing. We also have Mrs Penn teaching us on Tuesday afternoons. Both Mrs Morris-Bowman and Mr Brown really like teaching us in different ways. We learn through acting, singing, art, writing and investigations both indoors and outdoors!
Year 3 is a big year - we moved from KS1 to KS2 and have lots of fun getting to grips with new routines and new spaces within the school! Our favourite thing about the change is that we get to go on the KS2 playground, which has a trim trail, astro turf, tyres to climb as well a big playground!
In our learning, we get to explore some really exciting topics and are worked really hard! We have lots of writing practise so that we can earn our Pen Licenses quickly and we have extra Math sessions so that we can learn our times tables and complete quick mental arithmetic questions. We also start learning French, which is "tres bien!"
SUMMER TERM STARTS WEDNESDAY 24 APRIL 2019.

The Marlins couldn’t polish off the Nationals on Sunday for a series sweep.
Denard Span doubled with two outs in the 10th to drive in the go-ahead run, and the Nationals added two more on hits by Wilson Ramos and Chad Tracy.
But the Marlins are in a much better position now than they were in May.
Since May 31, they are 22-17. By playing .500 baseball the rest of the season, they would end up a better record than last season’s high-priced unit that finished 69-93.
The Marlins found themselves in extra innings for the third time in six games when neither team could produce the big hit that would have negated the need for bonus baseball on the eve of the All-Star break.
The Nationals, most of all, were probably kicking themselves.
They peppered Henderson Alvarez for nine hits but had only two runs to show for it. The fourth inning, in particular, was frustrating for the Nationals, who came up with four hits in the inning but failed to score. Giancarlo Stanton threw a runner (Jayson Werth) out at second and Ian Desmond at the plate to snuff out what could have been a breakout inning for Washington.
The Marlins were not without their chances, too.
With a runner on first in the second, Derek Dietrich ripped a line shot past the bag at first and down the right-field line that first base umpire Mike Estabrook signaled fair.
But home plate umpire Alan Porter overruled the call and said the ball landed just foul. Forced to return to the plate, Dietrich struck out on the next pitch as the Marlins failed to score in the inning.
The Marlins had nobody to blame but themselves when they came up empty again in the third. With runners at first and second and two outs, Stanton hit a sharp single to left. But third base coach Joe Espada stopped Jeff Mathis at third. Placido Polanco, who was motoring from first, didn’t see the stoppage of traffic in front of him, kept on chugging past second, and got caught in a rundown that led to the third out.
The Marlins took a 2-1 lead in the fourth on Dietrich’s ninth home run, a two-run shot. But the Nationals tied it in the seventh when the last batter Alvarez faced, Anthony Rendon, delivered an RBI double with two outs.
The Nationals, who lost in the 10th inning Saturday, came up with three runs off Cishek in the 10th to put it away. The runs snapped Cishek’s scoreless-innings streak at 16 1/3.

Anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE Instagram. I think I’m obsessed. With #Cube I can take the photos I upload to Instagram and make them in to a digital picture frame.
My #cube came very nicely packaged in a sturdy box. You don’t have to worry about it getting damaged in the mail, it’s padded. Plus the box is nice enough you can put a bow on it and give it as a gift with no wrapping required. My #Cube is the “classic” style, it looks like the Instagram symbol but you can also get it in Black or White.
Mine came pre-charged, but if you need to charge it, you simply plug it into your USB port or USB adapter. The frame has three buttons on top. The circle one turns it on. The square one allows you to switch up what you are viewing. The heart button allows you to “like” photos from your Instagram feed. It has a large 8” square LCD display. It is also a touch screen, for you to login, swipe through photos and to search for users you’d like to display.
To make it work you need to log the frame in to your wireless internet. Once you’re online you will then need to log in to your Instagram account. You then have the option of displaying the photos of people you follow, or your own Instagram photos or choose a hashtag you’d like to follow. We crated our own hashtag to display our select photos we wanted to see. If you’re in the regular feeds you can push the heart button and like those photos just like you can in Instagram.
We LOVE this #Cube. My kids like watching the photos flip through and talk about when the photos were taken. They even asked if they could watch it at dinner time, funny I know, but they really were having fun with it. I don’t have any complaints with this frame. It displays well, easy to work and looks awesome on the shelf.
This is a perfect gift to give to new parents, grandparents, hard to buy for teen, and so many more.
**UPDATE!** The more I play around on #Cube, the more cool features I’m discovering. I just learned that if I swipe to the left on a Instagram photo on #Cube, I can see the caption of the photo and who the photo was posted by. I can also stop following users by doing this as well.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- A talented array of Caribbean Cultural acts will take center stage when Braata Productions presents its fifth annual Old Time Grand Market Celebration at the Holy Family Church Auditorium in Canarsie, Brooklyn this Sunday December 10 starting from 5pm.
Classically trained Jamaican singer Rory Frankson is among the artists slated to perform at "Old Time Grand Market" this Sunday December 10 in Brooklyn New York.
Old Time Grand Market is a one day Caribbean Christmas festival featuring music, food and craft vendors and numerous activities for the entire family.
The centerpiece of the festival is the Grand Market Concert, which this year features performances by Caribbean cultural stars including vocalists Rory Frankson and Andrew Clarke , folklorist Coleen Shand, The Braata Folk Singers, the Quake USA cultural group of Grenada, The True Tribute Organisation and the Impressions Dance Theater representing Guyana.
Andrew Clarke recently earned excellent reviews for his leading role in the world premiere musical Welcome to America and will shortly be seen in a guest starring role in the Investigation Discovery series "Disappeared."
The award winning Braata Folk Singers have earned numerous accolades, including several medals from the World Choir Games- the most prestigious choral competition in the world- while the Quake USA Folk Group of Grenada are one of the most versatile performing arts troupes in the diaspora.
Also making their Grand Market debut will be the youthful Impressions Dance Theatre- under the Direction of Guyanese American Verna Walcott White- and whose repertoire includes Afro Caribbean, African and Hip Hop dance forms.
A highlight of this year's concert will once again be the inclusion of Christmas traditions from the islands represented by the various concert artists. Accordingly, Quick USA will be performing a suite of Grenadian Christmas folk songs while Impressions Dance Theatre will enact a Guyanese Masquerade presentation.
The Holy Family Church Auditorium is located at 9719 Flatlands Avenue, at the corner of East 98th Street and Conklin Avenue.
Tickets are available on the Braata Productions website and at select Caribbean outlets in the boroughs.

The first world ranking competition of the year was last weekend in Reykjanesbær/Keflavík held by Máni that is the local riding club. Four riders from the farm were competing and they did very well.
I (Katrín) was in b - final with the stallion Dagfari frá Miðkoti in open class ( total score 6,83), very happy with that since it is his second tölt competition and he is only 6 years old. Dabbi was successful and won the gæðingaskeið/pacetest with 6,71 and was in fourth place in the 100m pace test with our promising mare Irpa frá Borgarnesi. Ási won the tölt and was number two in fourgait with his horse Reyr frá Melabergi in the young rider class. At last but not least Siggi Sæm won the 100 pace test on his pacehorse Spori frá Holtsmúla 1. Overal a successful weekend.
Glæsilegt að renna Skeiðvallaliðinu með þessum hætti inn í sumarið. Til lukku.

War of the Rebellion: Serial 018 Page 0963 Chapter XXIV. CORRESPONDENCE, ETC.-UNION.
September 1, 1862-6.30 a. m.
COLONEL: To enable the outpost duty to be performed with any degree of satisfaction and safety, I respectfully request of the commanding general that cavalry may be assigned to me for that purpose. I presume the commanding general is not aware that I have only a few orderlies, not enough to furnish messengers for the outposts, much less vedettes and patrols. I also request to be informed if cavalry patrols are in my front, under direction of the commander of the cavalry. If so, will they be directed to notify the commander of the guard of the movements of the enemy affecting him, and beyond the reach of his sentinels? I have now outposts on the road to Gum Spring, and shall locate my grand guard on that road at a suitable position this side of Flat Lick Run. I presume General Sumner will take the road to Chantilly. I do not know who takes one to Groveton.
Near Centreville, September 1, 1862-9.40 a. m.
GENERAL: In reply to your letter of this morning, General Pope directs me to say that if he can possibly find any cavalry fit for service he will assign a fair proportion of it to your corps. Each commander of cavalry reports his force as perfectly broken down, and not able to raise a trot. Nearly all the cavalry that is fit for service (and the number is very small) has just been ordered to the right, to watch the movements of the enemy in that direction. The whole of Banks' cavalry force, under command of General Buford, is now at or near Cub Run. The choicest of this force will be left there. Horses have been sent for to remount the cavalry, and are expected to-day or to-morrow. There is a regiment of infantry and two pieces of artillery on the Groveton road, in front of our lines, belonging to Reynolds' division. Franklin will take the Groveton road for his grand guards; Sumner will attend to the Chantilly road; whilst Banks is on the road to Manassas Junction.
DEAR PORTER: Yours of the 10th instant received.* Much obliged for your assurance of the paper referred to; it will be very useful.

With a new-look front office and coaching staff, comes a new-look roster for the 2007 Ocean City Barons. The Barons open the 2007 season on Saturday, May 12 on the road against the Delaware Dynasty. The home opener at Carey Stadium is on Tuesday, May 22 in a match against the Reading Rage.
The club enters their 11th season, and their sixth as a member of the Premier Development League (PDL). The Barons return eight players from last year’s team, which finished in second place in the Northeast Division and barely missed the cut for the Eastern Conference playoffs. This year’s team will battle for the Mid-Atlantic Division title with new manager Mike Pellegrino and assistant coach John Thompson, one of the top defenders in the PDL during his five years on the Barons backline.
The forward position looks to be a strength for the Barons in 2007 with last year’s team MVP Jeremy Ortiz (LaSalle) returning for his second year. Playing alongside him will be veteran striker Byron Carmichael who has 26 goals in 43 matches in his three years with the Barons. Lafayette’s Scott Hawkins looks to play more of a role after playing in nine games last year, notching a goal and an assist.
New faces up top include Brad Peters and Lee Catchpole. Peters led Eastern Illinois University in scoring as a sophomore, notching 11 goals and 3 assists (25 points) in 19 games. Catchpole, a Norwich, England native, will be entering his senior year at the University of Buffalo where he has scored 17 goals in 46 matches.
Ryan Heins (Medford, NJ), a recent draftee of the Philadelphia Kixx of the MISL, will return for his fifth season to hold down the midfield. Heins was a consistent force in the middle of the park last year and led the club with six assists. Mays Landing native Adam Sternberger, who played a key role as a winger for the Barons last year, will try to continue his form from his college season at Rutgers where he led the team in scoring (5 goals, 1 assist). Billy Pinto (Audobon, NJ) returns to the club after finishing his first season with Hofstra where he helped the team advance to the second round of the NCAA tournament. The newcomers in the midfield include three players who call Europe home, a couple of "Soccer Seven" players and a local player with "New Jersey High School Player of the Year" on his resume.
Sean Boyle (Galaway, Ireland) scored four goals and had five assists for Limestone College in his sophomore season. Rob Youhill (Harrogate, England), a teammate with Billy Pinto and former Baron Michael Todd at Hofstra, has joined the club after a successful college season. Mike Galeski was Eastern Illinois’ second leading scorer behind Brad Peters and was also a first team all-conference selection. Miles Harrison from Villanova and Jim Davis from LaSalle are the Soccer Seven midfielders for the Barons. Harrison is entering his junior year at ’Nova and Davis will be a senior for LaSalle. Ocean City High School’s Kyle Evans was the second leading scorer last season at Lehigh University (3 goals, 7 assists). Evans will reunite with Coach Pellegrino where he was named the 2005-06 Gatorade State Player of the Year in New Jersey.
The defense will be anchored by Drexel graduate Joseph Banks who returns for his fourth year with the Barons. Rejoining the club will be Leon Brown, who played for the Barons during their historic undefeated season of 2004. Brown, who was a college teammate of Barons GM Neil Holloway, will likely occupy the right back slot for the defense.
Five new faces round out the defensive roster with Adam Ennis (Lanarkshire, Scotland), Jide Ogunbiyi (Gwynedd, PA), Adam Brazitis (Lititz, PA), John Elicker (West Chester, PA) and Ryan Porch (Marlton, NJ). Ennis, along with midfielder Sean Boyle, also comes from Limestone College where he was named to the All-Region team. Ogunbiyi is a 6’4 defender who returns home to the east coast from Santa Clara University. Brazitis is the club’s other Villanova player, who will be a solid addition to the defensive backline. Elicker and Porch are both defenders from the University of Pennsylvania who helped the team earn eight shutouts and the university’s best Ivy League finish (5-1-1) since 2002.
Bucknell graduate Adam Edwards is the only returning goalkeeper from last year. In 2006, he played in seven games while splitting time with Boston College standout Issey Mahalo. In his time between the sticks, Edwards allowed only seven goals, including two shutouts. Challenging Edwards for the #1 job will be West Virginia goalkeeper Zach Johnson (Lumberton, NJ) and Kean College goalkeeper Kyle Crego. Johnson spent last season at WVU as the backup to one of the nation’s top goalkeepers in Nick Noble (who was recently drafted by the Chicago Fire of MLS). Crego, a product of the Barons’ youth system, was Kean College’s #1 keeper, holding a 1.27 goals against average over 23 games.

Thank you to Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky for inviting us to play for a day. I was not compensated for this post.
Friends, it has been a long school year. This was David's first year of college. Although we were confident that he would do well, starting college at 15 isn't easy. Caleb has had a lot of school work to do plus therapy three times a week, so it makes for some long days. Dakota has worked hard to get all of her work done, but she's needed more help as 5th grade focuses more on writing and harder math concepts.
To say that we needed a break was an understatement. Normally, we celebrate our last day with a trip to get ice cream at a local dairy farm and then do something small but fun the next week. This year, we were invited to spend the day at Great Wolf Lodge in Sandusky, Ohio. Even though we won't be done with school work until Tuesday or Wednesday of this week, it was a great reward for working hard all year!
Great Wolf Lodge in Sandusky is a hotel resort with an indoor water park geared towards families. In addition to the water park, they also have several dry activities for children. The Sandusky location is their smallest one, but that was nice because we got to park very close to the building, and it wasn't crazy busy that day.
When we arrived at the resort, my kids got Paw Passes. Paw Passes, and their counterpart for the littles Pup Passes, are a great deal to enjoy the dry activities at the park.
MagiQuest Game and Wand. This is a fun game where the kids explore the hotel area of the resort on a quest to find treasures. They wave their wand at the picture and to find things for their quest and earn points.
Great Wolf Kids Character. They pick their own fun animal character and watch it get stuffed.
Arcade Pass. They have a decent sized arcade with a lot of fun games for kids and adults. My husband and I enjoyed the arcade too.
Serving of Bulk Candy. The kids got to choose their favorite flavors of Jelly Beans to fill a container. I think this may have been Caleb's favorite part of the dry activities.
Great Wolf Googles. This was nice because two of my three forgot goggles. Guess which one remembered?
Glitz Glitter Tattoo. They have several designs to choose from, and the kids can get a glittery tattoo that lasts about a week. The boys didn't want theirs, but Dakota loved getting three of them.
Leathery Treaty Name Bracelet. They got to choose their own bracelet and get it engraved with their names.
Caleb and Dakota, 12 and 10 respectively, really enjoyed the Paw Pass and activities. At 16, David was too old for mort of it, but he did like the arcade and the MagiQuest. We were told that there are two versions of the MagiQuest so younger kids will still enjoy it.
We had a nice lunch provided by the hotel and got to meet some staff members and the manager and learn more about the resort.
Since we weren't staying in rooms, we got to tour two rooms. They have different sizes of rooms with different accommodations. We saw two styles of rooms, and both looked very comfortable for our family of five.
After we saw the rooms, we were able to enjoy the water park. There was a small play area with shallow water for the littles. I saw crawling babies and toddlers there with their parents, but my kids were too old for that part.
My kids went straight to Fort Mackenzie, a large tree house full of fun water activities. It has slides and lots of fun ways for the kids to play. At the top, there was a large bucket that filled up and dumped water on everyone standing in front of it every 5 minutes or so. Caleb and Dakota really like this area, and David even did the slide a few times.
There are some smaller slides for older kids and then some even bigger slides. Dakota was the only one brave enough to do the big slides in our group.
We spent a lot of time in the Raccoon Lagoon, which is a shallow pool that you can swim and play in or play basketball in.
There are also two hot tubs: a warm one for families and a hot one for adults only. Since David is 16 and old enough to watch his siblings, my husband and I got to enjoy the adult hot tub. That may have been my favorite part of the trip.
We had a very fun day. The resort is really family friendly, and it's a great place to go if you have littles. At 10, 12, and 16, my kids still had a lot of fun and can't wait to go back this summer.
One thing that really stood out was how friendly the staff was to everyone. Every person from the management to the clerks in the store, they were all nice to the kids and very helpful.
The lifeguards also did a great job. There were some sitting in their lifeguard stands keeping watch, but then there were several that stood beside the pools walking back and forth, never taking their eyes off of the water.
IS GREAT WOLF LODGE AUTISM FRIENDLY?
I would say yes, Since they limit the number of guests to those who are staying in the resort and don't sell day passes, it limits the number of guests. Yes, it's busy, but we were there on a busy Saturday and had plenty of room to move through the resort and the water park.
Since there are wet and dry activities, there are other things to do if one activity becomes too overwhelming. While we didn't have a room, they are spacious enough to go there for a break if needed.
The arcade was very loud both in the noise level and the colors But it's an arcade, and that's really to be expected. Caleb wanted to do the arcade first, but we had to leave and come back later after some quieter activities.
They don't have an autism pass like an amusement park does, but we didn't need one anyway. There was a short line for the slides, but it wasn't terrible. I think the longest the kids waited was about three minutes.
Overall, it was a great day, and we all can't wait to go back!

This is a fantastic prop! You borrow a bank note from one of your spectators and then turn your back for a second. When you face them again you hand them a little clear box which is seen to contain their bank note. The challenge is to remove the bill from the box without breaking it. Of course they will be unable to do so until they know the clever secret!

As Mark and I were planning our most recent visit to Iceland, we knew we wanted to venture beyond Reykjavik. We started pricing out day trips – the most popular being the Golden Circle. We were, frankly, shocked at just how expensive some of the day trips were. Some of the basic, 6-hour trips started at around $95 Canadian per person, and prices only went up from there.
We also had tickets for the Blue Lagoon. Prices for a round trip bus ticket started at about $55 CDN. Factor in the airport shuttle bus from Keflavik airport to Reykjavik and back ($38 CDN one way)…well, it started to add up pretty fast. Once we priced out all of these transportation costs, then compared them to the price of just renting a car for the 5 days we were there (approx. $250 CDN) – the choice was obvious. We decided to rent a car.
The weather in Reykjavik in early November is a dog’s breakfast of atmospheric unpredictability. One minute the sun is out, then it’s windy, then, rainy, followed by sun again. So when we got in the car that morning for our road-tripping adventure, we were thrilled by the good weather. We could only hope that it would hold up!
The primary roads in Iceland are relatively smooth and well-maintained, although some stretches have almost non-existent shoulders, should you suddenly need to pull over. They also drive on the right side of the road, which is great for us North Americans. They do, however, have a great love of roundabouts, which might stress out some drivers. But with the combination of good signage and a trusty GPS, this shouldn’t be a concern for most seasoned drivers.
We hopped onto Highway #1, then #36 to start our sightseeing journey of the Golden Circle.
This was our first stop along the Golden Circle. Thingvellir National Park is not only picturesque, but it’s an incredibly important historical site for Iceland. There are numerous sights to stop and explore here, including waterfalls, viewpoints, and a historic church.
The first Norse settlers came to Iceland sometime in the second half of the 9th Century AD. As more settlers arrived, the need for laws and a system of common rules increased. Over time, district assemblies were created to create and enact laws. But sometime after 900 AD, the need for a larger, general assembly, or Alþing, arose.
Thingvellir (Þingvellir in Icelandic) is the original site of the first Icelandic general assembly, held in 930 AD. This site was chosen for its easy accessibility for most people from the different regional assemblies to attend; plus there was water, firewood and good land for grazing animals. People from all over Iceland met here for two weeks every June to settle disputes and listen to the laws being read out. It was also a meeting place where vendors sold their wares, people played games, and potential love matches were made.
From this first general assembly, the Icelandic Commonwealth was born. It was also here that Icelanders chose to abandon their old Norse pagan belief system in lieu of Christianity in 1000 AD. All of these historic events are explained along the trail in detailed interpretive plaques, written in both Icelandic and English.
During the Commonwealth (930-1262), there was no central authority to uphold judgments, so extreme punishments such as executions were rare. If someone was found guilty of a crime or other injustice, the punishment had to be carried out by the person or persons who made the accusations and filed the grievance.
This changed after 1262, when Iceland came under the authority of the King of Norway. By 1281, the Jónsbók, or Book of Law was approved as the main foundation of Icelandic law, despite opposition from locals. It wasn’t long before punishments for crimes became more severe.
In fact, some of the punishments were pretty gruesome. After the changes to the laws in 1281, one of the new forms of sentencing was execution by drowning. However, there aren’t any written cases of this form of punishment actually being carried out until after the Reformation in the 16th Century. That’s when things really took a dark turn.
Punishments came in various dreadful forms, depending on the crime. Corporal punishment came in the form of whipping, branding, or cutting off limbs/fingers. Execution covered larger crimes. Thieves were hanged, while murderers and male adulterers were beheaded. Then there were the witch hunts in the 17th Century, when numerous people were burned at the stake for witchcraft.
This is Drekkingarhylur – the Drowning Pool. Eighteen women were drowned here for various crimes – typically for “loose morals” – between 1618-1749. It doesn’t seem very deep, but then it didn’t need to be. Condemned women were forced to wear a wool sack over their heads, and once deemed guilty, they were pushed into the water and held under with a stick until they stopped moving.
At least 72 people were executed at Thingvellir between 1602 and 1750. That’s a sobering thought as you walk along the trail and boardwalks, overlooking some deceptively beautiful landscapes.
This is Öxarárfoss waterfall, which is fed by the Öxará river. In the 9th Century, locals moved the Öxará river in order to channel the water into a ravine. This was done so that fresh water was available for those attending the parliamentary Alþing. The diversion created this man-made waterfall.
The walking trail in Thingvellir is well laid out, but I would recommend good hiking boots with grippy treads. I found that my hiking shoes weren’t quite right for all of the path sections, especially on the slippery wooden boardwalk portions!
This flag marks one of the potential historic locations of the Law Rock. This was the place where the Law Speaker would have stood to proclaim the laws of the commonwealth at each assembly. The role of the Law Rock essentially ended when the Icelanders plead allegiance to the Norwegian king in 1262. Therefore, it’s exact location isn’t certain.
This is the impressive volcanic Almannagja rock wall, which marks Thingvellir’s western boundary. It’s also the second most-likely location of the Law Rock. The responsibility and power of the Alþing diminished over time, until the last general assembly meeting, held in 1798.
In the distance stands Þingvallakirkja, or Thingvellir church. This particular church dates from 1859, although there has been a wooden church at this site since Iceland adopted Christianity in 1000 AD.
Our next stop along the Golden Circle route was the Geysir. This is a geothermal hot spot which is affected by earthquake activity.
There are two primary geysirs here: the Great Geysir, and Strokkur. The Great Geysir is sporadic in its activity, and sometimes won’t erupt for years at a time. Interestingly, soap used to be added to the geysir to stimulate its eruptions. Eventually in the 1990s, soap stopped being used due to environmental concerns.
The Strokkur geysir, on the other hand, is much more active and consistent, usually erupting every 5-10 minutes.
Then it goes silent again, until the next time. Strokkur usually shoots up to between 10-20 meters each time, though it’s been recorded as high as 40 meters.
The water is ridiculously hot when it shoots out, and there are warning signs everywhere not to touch the water or stand too close to the bursting water and subsequent steam. There’s also a lot of sulphur in the water, so there’s that pleasant rotten-egg scent lingering in the air after each eruption.
It was cool to watch it go off a few times, but then the novelty of it wore off. So we hopped back into the car and back on the road.
By the time we reached Gullfoss Waterfall, it was bloody cold. And windy. And damp. There were much better viewpoints of the falls than this one, but frankly, it was so cold that we basically went “point-click-shoot-get back in the car”.
The falls are fed by Iceland’s second largest glacier, Langjökull.
In the early 1900s, some investors decided they wanted to harness the power of Gullfoss to create electricity. The falls were owned by a farmer named Tómas Tómasson at the time, and he declined their offer to purchase the falls. He told them, “I do not sell my friends.” Eventually though, he agreed to lease the waterfall. But Tómas’ daughter, Sigriður Tómasdóttir, disagreed with the leasing of the falls.
Building a hydroelectric power plant here would have changed the waterfalls and surrounding land irreparably. In fact, to show the people just how serious she was about protecting the falls, Sigriður walked 120km from Gullfoss to Reykjavik barefoot. She even threatened to throw herself into the waterfall if a power plant was built. Eventually her protests were heard, and the plans were scrapped.
After her death in 1957, a memorial plaque was placed here to remember her fight to protect and conserve Gullfoss.
She looks quite formidable, doesn’t she?
So, I can say without hesitation (as a passenger that never got behind the wheel once) that driving the Golden Circle is the best way to go while in Iceland!

You know how it goes – chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose...but there’s one thing that’s missing: mocktails! So what are you waiting for? Bring some non-alcoholic fun to your holiday service this year with the help of these six merry mocktails. Bonus: your kitchen or bar can make them in batches.

1. Place all ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a simmer on the grates of the grill or over a burner.
2. To serve, ladle into individual mugs. Serve hot.
Nothing says brunch like a Bellini! This non-alcoholic version will be a hit with brunchers that need to stay focused for a day of shopping.
1. Add honey and peach nectar to a champagne flute.
2. Add scoop of sherbet and top with sparkling lemonade.
3. Garnish with peach slices and mint, and serve immediately.
Tip: For a large crowd or holiday party, triple recipe and prepare in a punch bowl. Top up with soda immediately before serving.
Give this drink the presentation it deserves, stock up on copper mugs to give customers the classic experience.
1. Fill a cocktail glass (preferably a copper Moscow mule mug) with ice.

2. Pour into sealable container and refrigerate until completely chilled (will last several weeks in the fridge).
2. Add 1 ½ – 2 tablespoons grenadine to a glass and top with ½ cup sparkling water.

An appeal has been allowed against a ruling that found a former technician had been discriminated against by receiving half of the pension he would have been entitled to had he been working full-time at the time of his ill-health retirement.
In the case of the Trustees of Swansea University Pension and Assurance Scheme (Swansea) vs Andrew Williams, the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) ruled that the original case decision could not stand, allowing the appeal and remitting the case to a fresh tribunal for a complete rehearing.
Williams served as a full-time technician at the university before taking ill-health early retirement at the age of 38 in June 2013.
The combined conditions of tourette’s syndrome, depression and obsessive compulsive disorder rendered him incapable of fulfilling his post. Neither party in the case disputes his status as a disabled employee.
Under the conditions of the pension scheme applicable to Williams, employees are entitled to a pension upon retirement at the age of 67, unless the retirement is due to ill health. In the case of the latter, employees are entitled to both the immediate payment of the pension and an enhanced pension without actuarial reduction, as if they had continued to work to retirement age on their current salary.
Prior to his early retirement, Williams’ hours had been temporarily reduced to 17.5 per week in light of his disability. No permanent change to his contractual hours (35 per week) was made.
As Williams’ hours and pay had reduced by half, the enhanced pension he received was also halved.
Williams brought a case against Swansea, claiming that calculating an ill-health early retirement pension on reduced hours constituted unfavourable treatment arising from disability, pursuant to section 15 of the Equality Act.
This claim was upheld by an Employment Tribunal (ET) in July 2014.
Swansea appealed the ET ruling, arguing that its treatment of Williams had actually been more favourable than it would have been for peers without a disability.
In a statement from law firm Didlaw, which represented Williams during Swansea’s appeal, director and senior solicitor Karen Jackson said: ‘Having eagerly awaited judicial guidance on section 15 and the meaning of unfavourable, we must now admit to being disappointed.

When the exhibition was established in Kassel in 1955, the founder was eager to showcase what the Nazis called Degenerate Art.
In his will, filmmaker KA Abbas requested the editor of 'Blitz' – Russy Karanjia – to give his Last Page column to some progressive journalists like P Sainath.
Study and struggle: Is student politics really a waste of time?

Kelly Osbourne Makes Good On Her Threat And Leaves "Fashion Police"
Kelly Osbourne threatened to leave Fashion Police after Giuliana Rancic made seemingly racist comments about pop star Zendaya’s hair on the Oscars red carpet.
After criticism came crashing in from every corner, including from her co-host, Kelly Osbourne, Rancic apologized.
But, it seems like her apology was too little, too late for Kelly Osbourne.
The purple haired fashion expert has left Fashion Police.
Kelly Osbourne celebrated Rancic’s apology, but since she left anyway, could there be other reasons for her departure?
That’s sort of ironic, at this point, right?
Sources told TMZ that there has been tension since the first episode the cast taped without Joan Rivers.
They say Kelly Osbourne was unhappy with the way the show was being produced. Producers then indicated that they had had it “up to here” with Kelly Osboune.
Are you having as much fun watching the #ERedCarpet #PreShow as @mrbradgoreski are taping It?
What do you think of Kelly Osbourne leaving Fashion Police? Do you think it was due to the Zendaya incident or do you think it was a long time coming?

AutoCAD is probably the most successful computer aided design (CAD) software on the market. Originally introduced in 1982 by Autodesk Inc., the product has gone through some twenty upgrades and additions, bringing it to its most recent issue: AutoCad 2007.
Initially a general-purpose 2D drafting program, AutoCAD has evolved into a family of products which provide a platform for 2D and 3D CAD. Today, it is used by civil engineers, land developers, architects, mechanical engineers, interior designers and other design professionals.

Anyone with a spare hybrid/old aluminium road bike that I could borrow at the weekend??

If you left a blue knitted scarf in Pizza Express then shout, because I have it.
"Yes ok sounds good, see you then. My number is 07732 27355 if you need it."
"Hi Gesine, I'm keen for a Richmond ride tomorrow. Could meet you where I met you last time, at Clapham South? Let me know what's best."
Suzannah replied to Suzannah's discussion Richmond ride tomorrow?
"Ok, see you there at 12 then. My number is 07732 273555 if any problems."
Gesine Junker replied to Suzannah's discussion Richmond ride tomorrow?
"Sure, I'll come to Clapham South tube station"
"Yes sure - were you planning on getting to Richmond via the main A3 road? I know a good quieter route there via Earlsfield but would be better to meet at Clapham South tube. Let me know what you'd prefer, easy either way for me."
"Hi, I'll be meting Suzannah at 12, so I'll be at the lido for 11.30"
"Hi Suzannah, how about meeting at the breakfast club at Battersea for 12?"
"In that case, I'd be keen to go down to Richmond at 12. Gesine where are you setting off from? I'm in Clapham South"
Luis Manuel Cavaco Conceicao replied to Suzannah's discussion Richmond ride tomorrow?
"Unless I did not read the race course correctly, the half marathon course is mainly be the river and does not go inside the park..."
"I'll be heading to Richmond around 12 for two very easy laps trailing a TT bike. The half m should be wrapped up by then. Happy for some company."
Francesco S replied to Suzannah's discussion Richmond ride tomorrow?
"Oh yes, so there is, thanks Tony! Luis, I guess we'll have to do another weekend..."
Tony replied to Suzannah's discussion Richmond ride tomorrow?
"Isn’t there a half marathon in Richmond park tomorrow? Someone was talking about it after Peckham parkrun at least"
"Count me in. What time & where?"
"I'm definitely keen for the swim bit but my running isn't up to scratch at the mo because of injury. So could be keen to find someone who wants to do the run."
Hi Suze, you kindly offered to bake at Saturday swimming this month. We don't have a baker this Saturday (15) or the one after (22) - would either of these work for you?

Anxiety related insomnia affects many people around the world. Instead of sleeping and recovering, they lie awake for hours, tossing and wondering why they cannot get some rest. This not only leads to fatigue the next day but can also trigger other mental and physical illnesses.
Those who resort to sleeping pills in this situation may solve the problem at short notice, but in the long term, they run the risk of dependence. Luckily much of these symptoms of anxiety and insomnia can be relieved with the following helpful ways.
Periodic massage therapy for 2-3 times a week can help reduce anxiety thereby improve sleep at night. The self-massage of your joints and muscle can also contribute to a natural relief against any feelings of stress. If you prefer, you can visit a professional massage therapist who can provide you with a good deep body massage; this can really aid with controlling any bodily sensations that trigger those feelings of anxiety.
Paying attention to your mind and having a deep reflection of naturally occurring situations can help to balance your body and make you more mindful of situations that are susceptible to stress. This helps offload anxiety and worries in the mind thereby leading to better sleep at night. You can even use mindfulness apps or adopt other relaxation practices such as going for a walk or visiting a natural vegetative garden can also help tune your body to such a mindful state.
Diet can both positively or negatively affect your state of mind. Focusing on a good ‘sleep diet’ can be one way by which insomnia can be reduced. The content of the foods you take during the day and before sleep is a driving mechanism that ascertains what your sleep quality will be like. Foods such as bananas, soybeans, cashew, and walnuts have been found to aid with aid.
Also, foods high in minerals such as magnesium potassium can also help with reducing anxiety by sending calm sensations through the body. Whole grain rice, spinach, avocado, and fish are an example of such foods which have been found to act as a muscle relaxant that can help to increase sleeping time.
The use of sleeping pills may not always be the best resort in the remedy of anxiety and insomnia because of the side effects and addiction to such medicines. Due to the physiological state of the human body, engaging in the use of a series of natural remedies may help improve and relieve anxiety and insomnia.
Such remedies include Cannabidiol Oil, which is also known as (CBD) oil. It is an extract from cannabis which has been proven to be a natural remedy for anxiety and insomnia. The National Institute on Drug Abuse has carried further research on the use of CBD oil on individuals having an increased level of anxiety. The proven result from victims showed that the level of anxiety after taking a dose of CBD oil was greatly reduced. Here is more info on the benefits of CBD.
Almonds and brazil nuts are commonly consumed by people living with insomnia.They have both been proven to improve the quality of sleep and may help reduce anxiety. The almond extract contains a high amount of magnesium and calcium which are the two most important minerals needed to improve sleeping time and its quality.
The use of yoga therapy to induce sleep for individuals has not only been helpful but gives a deep relaxing mood for mental and emotional anxiety. Yoga exercise has many health benefits as it is extensively built on different poses that act as links to different movement patterns. The initiation of this slow movement of the body has been proven to help improve sleep at night. There are various different types of yoga poses that have been found to contribute to relieving from insomnia cases. These include poses like Shavasana, Uttanasana, and Marjariasana; these poses have been one useful way by which individuals can develop for extra relief.
When engaging with such poses, they also help with controlling your breath, as well as relieving every single part of your body, from muscles and bones.
Fish oil from salmon and krill contain very high levels of omega-3-fatty acid. An increase of this essential fatty acid may also help improve the quality of sleep for people living with insomnia. Other fishes like sardines and tuna also contain a high level of omega-3-fatty acid, although not as high as the former.
Drinking too much caffeine has many negative health risks and has also been proven to inhibit sleep in individuals consuming them. Drinks like coffee, Coca-Cola and high sugar or energy drinks contain a large amount of caffeine which depresses the hormone in the body that induces sleep. Caffeine which is generally categorized as a stimulant is not really of great importance to our diet, so should be reduced as much as possible if an improved quality of sleep is what you are after.
Lights from screens like T.V and bulbs emit rays that disrupt sleep and cause discomfort. This is because such rays lead to a reduction in the production of melatonin, which is the most important sleep hormone in the body. It is advisable, therefore, to reduce the exposure to such rays thereby increasing the quality of your sleep and preventing insomnia.
People falling prey to anxiety-related insomnia may often be advised by a medical professional to engage in regular exercise and sports. Regular exercise has been one helpful health remedy to relieve insomnia thereby improve sleeping time for individuals. Studies have shown that individuals subjected to exercise like walking a lengthy distance, jogging, cycling, or any form of moderate-intensity workout routine tend to have better sleep at night.
Increasing the level of exercise during the day not only improves the quality of sleep at night but also indirectly helps for cardiac health and control stress at night. Exercise can be one long-term remedy for individuals having a chronic form of insomnia because it can take a long time for such a person to adjust to get a comfortable sleeping time at night. But science has proven that persistent exercise for 4-5 times a week can correct such anomaly.

Exuberantly and professionally performed by Marcy Open School 6th, 7th and 8th grade students, March 7-9 and 14-16, 2018.
“Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek…” And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude, and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you’ve got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there’s one on hand … and his name is Shrek.

As a company in the home improvement industry, it is imperative that your team is using the best sales techniques. You should be actively working to improve your closing rates to ensure that you aren’t wasting your time by going out to quote jobs that you will never land.
Focus on Referrals – Studies show that referrals are one of the most dependable sources of new income, no matter what business you’re in. However, they are especially important in the home improvement business. If you haven’t created a referral reward program, now is the time!
Provide Valuable Information – Consumers want to know how your services will improve or simplify their lives. Hard selling techniques don’t work. Instead, focus on providing them great information and industry secrets that will get them ready to buy.
Ask Plenty of Questions – Instead of pushing products, you should be learning about your customers. Ask questions about their home and what would make their home better. Ask them what they know about your company. Let them do 90% of the talking and spend your 10% providing a real solution.
Prove Yourself – In a room full of competitors, what makes you different? Are your products or services better than those of the other guys? Make it clear that you have something more to offer.
Don’t Waste Time – It seems that we’re all in a hurry these days. Don’t waste time repeating information or oversharing your story. Focus on what you have to offer and make it directly relevant to the consumer. If you spend time telling your whole company history, the consumer will tune out even before you get to the part about your products.
The best way to start gathering referrals and making face-to-face contact with potential new customers is at the next Miami Home Show. You can put these home improvement sales techniques to the test for yourself when you set up a booth at the Miami Home and Design Show where thousands of South Florida residents will come to learn about this year’s greatest home improvement products and services.
You can book your home improvement exhibition booth through the Home Shows website, and learn more about upcoming dates. Please contact us for more information.

What a disaster. Ireland may have won 2-1, but in all fairness, it’s a Phyrric Victory. We been humiliated by a team ranked about 150 places below us in the world.
The Irish team must have thought that all they had to do was show up and the win would be theirs. Fair play to San Marino though for pushing so hard for the win, and if there was any justice, they would have gotten the draw. Given that the winner wasn’t scored until the 5th minute of injury, Ireland certainly didn’t deserve to win.
This game just raises more questions about the Irish soccer setup. Why was a manager with virtually no management experience appointed to be the manager of an international team? Where is the pride in representing your country? Where was the leadership, both on and off the field? When was the entire board of FAI struck with selective blindness? It was obviously a gradual event, as the first symptoms first appeared when they were searching for a manager, and since then it has worsened dramatically. And of course the most important question, when is Steve Staunton going to be shown the door?

The draw has been made for the semi-finals of the Heineken Cup. If Munster can get past Llanelli, we’ll face either Leicester or Stade Francais.
On the other side of the draw, if Leinster get past Wasps, they’ll face Biarritz or Northampton, setting up a possible all Irish Heineken Cup Final.
Of course, that’s a long way away, but it’s something to look forward to all the same!

The draw has been made for the quarter finals and Munster have been drawn against Llanelli Scarlets. As one of the two teams that won all 6 pool games, Llanelli are going to be a tough team to beat. But once again, we’ll just have to do it the hard way.
The quarters take place at the end of March, and the 6 Nations finishes in mid-March, so that gives us two clear weeks to re-group and get our game together.

To The Brave And The Faithful….
Yesterday brought the curtain down on Heineken European Cup rugby in Thomond Park as it currently exists. Given Munsters proud record in the Heineken Cup at the venue, it was disappointing to see them lose to Leicester.
Before yesterdays match, Munster had not lost a Heineken Cup match in Thomond Park in the 12 years since the Cup started. That’s an unbeaten run of 25 successive matches. No other team could claim to have achieved such a feat.
While the fans always knew that our fantastic home record would go some day, I don’t think anyone expected it to be yesterday. And especially not against Leicester.

A couple of months ago I bought an external hard drive: it was a Seagate 320GB 7200 rpm. Now it’s a paper-weight. I felt that with all the data I had on my PC, it would be a good idea to have some sort of backup. That was the theory anyway. But of course, the practice was quite different. I stored all my data on that drive instead of on my PC.
There was about 200GB of data on that drive. That was until yesterday, when I committed the faux pas of plugging the wrong ac adapter into drive. My laptop uses 19 volts. The hard drive expected 12 volts. No smoke, no bang, just a continuously flashing LED on the drive. And no drive detected by the operating system.

Just an update on the CSS Problem. After a quick search on Google, I discovered that IE6 does not support the “position: fixed” attribute of CSS. I was using this attribute for the navigation bar, the external links bar, and the copyright bar. So when rendering the page, IE6 just ignored this attribute and laid out the different div’s one after another, which caused the messed up layout.
My original intention was to have those three blocks visible on the page at all times so that navigation would be easier. They also helped frame the content.
In the meantime, I’ve changed the attribute to “position: absolute”. So now the layout is nearly what I want. But not quite. I’ll work on incorporating the two style sheets, so that the true layout is available to those with compliant browsers, and IE6 users get the updated CSS file. That way, the site looks the way I want it to, and not the way that Internet Explorer, thinks it should look. At least IE7 does recognise “position: fixed”, but only time will tell what other parts of the CSS standard Microsoft have decided to ignore.
Thanks to my sister Lena, for pointing out the rendering problem on IE6. Kudos!

Here was I thinking that my site design was working fine, until I tried to view it on IE6. Oh. My. God. What an abomination. In Opera and Firefox it looks perfect. Even in IE7 it looked perfect, but in IE6, it was all over the place. For those of you on IE6, below is a screenshot of what it should look like. For those of you using a proper, standards compliant browser, there’s another screenshot of how IE6 renders my site. The problem is that the site does not use tables, but div’s and CSS to lay out the various sections.

November 17, 2010 – Over the past few weeks, analysts have opined that acquisitions such as EMC-Isilon ($2.25 billion) and HP-3PAR ($2.4 billion) spell bad news for NetApp. Maybe, but for now the NetApp juggernaut appears to be more than solid.
The company reported financial results today for its fiscal second quarter, highlighted by quarterly revenues of $1.207 billion. That’s up 33% over the same quarter a year ago. Similarly, NetApp’s revenue for the first six months of this quarter is up 34% vs. the previous year.
Net income was $165 million, or $0.42 per share, which compares to net income of $96 million, or $0.27 a share, a year ago. That’s a 72% increase year-over-year.
And gross margin was a whopping 66.9%, while operating margin was 19.8%.
The brightest spot was the company’s hardware revenues (which NetApp refers to as “product” revenue).
“NetApp produced 49% year over year growth in product revenue and our highest non-GAAP operating margin in over a decade,” said Tom Georgens, NetApp’s president and CEO. Product revenue in the second quarter was $780 million. And none of that came from the products NetApp announced a couple weeks ago as part of a wide-ranging refresh (see “NetApp overhauls product line, from arrays to OS”).
Other product lines were not so impressive. For example, software revenue was $177.9 million, up 5% year over year, and services revenue was $249.5 million, up 16% year over year.
What may raise some eyebrows is that NetApp is sitting on net cash of more than $3 billion, which will surely spark speculation on possible acquisitions that NetApp might make given the current climate of red hot M&A activity in the storage space.
Company officials predict third quarter revenue in the $1.24 billion to $1.29 billion range, which would translate into sequential growth in the 3% to 7% range.
NetApp [NASDAQ: NTAP] shares closed at $49.25 today, down 6.5%. The company’s 52-week trading range is $28.92 to $57.96.
Trading on the company’s stock was halted this afternoon due to a leak of the earnings report prior to NetApp’s official conference. Shares plunged, apparently because investors were not pleased with the Q3 earnings estimates.

Lumpectomy followed by breast irradiation is an alternative to mastectomy for patients with early-stage breast cancer. The purpose of radiation treatment following lumpectomy is to minimize the risk of recurrent cancer in the treated breast with as little toxicity as possible so that good cosmesis and function are maintained. Conventional fractionation schedules for postlumpectomy radiotherapy give 50 Gy in 2 Gy daily fractions, often with an additional boost to the tumor bed, resulting in treatment being given over 5-7 weeks. Delivering postoperative radiotherapy in a shorter period of time, provided it is as effective as longer treatment regiments, could result in greater convenience for patients. Moreover, given the high incidence of breast cancer, the use of a shorter fractionation schedule would decrease waiting lists in busy radiotherapy departments. We searched the medline (pubmed) and we reviewed all the relevant publications. We concluded that the accelerated hypofractionated schedules are safe in terms of cosmesis and effective in terms of local control. © 2009 Bentham Science Publishers Ltd.

Jennifer Garner helping Ben Affleck just for the sake of children.
Los Angeles: Actress Jennifer Garner, who has admitted her former husband and actor Ben Affleck into a rehab, is reportedly helping him just for the sake of their children.
A source told US Weekly that the 46-year-old ‘Peppermint’ actress is helping the Oscar winner for the sake of their three children — Violet, Seraphina and Samuel.
“The beauty has no interest in getting back together with the ‘Argo’ star even though they have been dragging their feet on finalising their divorce because overall she doesn’t agree with his decisions,” the source added.
Affleck has been checked into rehab in Malibu to receive treatment for his alcohol addiction, following an intervention by Garner.
“She wants the best situation for them with their dad. Other than his sobriety issues, she’s not going to involve herself. Jen just wants to protect the kids,” the source said.
A two-time Oscar winner, Affleck has been open about his battles in the past as he sought help in 2001 and 2017.
The couple got separated in 2015.

The biggest effect on the global investment markets since the GFC has been negligible or zero interest rates, especially in the US, the world's biggest economy. This has skewed investment options everywhere. To put it simply, the cost of capital, the very core of capitalism, has all but disappeared across the developed world (although certainly not the developing world).
"US central bankers are considering the risk of raising rates prematurely against having to play catch-up if they wait too long, Fed vice chairman Stanley Fischer said in a speech in Israel on Monday. He reiterated that the decision to increase borrowing costs would be "data determined", and a matter of "going from an ultra expansionary monetary policy to an extremely expansionary monetary policy".
Fed chair Janet Yellen said Friday it would be "appropriate" to raise rates this year if the economy improves.
"We've had a two-month correction to the downside to the dollar and I think that's ended," Marc Chandler, global head of currency strategy at Brown Brothers Harriman & Co, said during a radio interview with Bloomberg Surveillance. On dollar-yen, "we're approaching psychological, important levels that will convince more people that they can't fight this dollar uptrend". The 125 yen per dollar level is key, he said.
The Commerce Department's report on orders showed total bookings for durable goods, those meant to last at least three years, declined 0.5 per cent in April, matching the median forecast of economists surveyed by Bloomberg. They were depressed by a pullback in procurement from the military. Excluding defence, orders increased 0.2 per cent last month."
Given that the US has the world's deepest stock market, this development is of significance for equity markets world wide. In the short term, higher interest rates are likely to depress share prices. But the underlying economic improvement that is occurring is likely to lead to stronger equity marikets over time. What effect that will have on the Australian market, which is about two fifths banks, is problematic. But the GFC's impact may finally be starting to diminish.
Problems with the yield play?
Buying Australian shares for their dividend yield has been a sound strategy for DIY super funds. But with earnings coming under pressure there may be ..

Bike to School Week 2018 (May 28-June 1) saw an expansion of the program to 49 schools outside the GTHA. Nearly 50,000 students across the province biked, wheeled and rolled their way to school during the week. Check out the report for more details.
The 2011 GTHA School Travel Trends Reports have been updated with data from the 2016 Transportation Tomorrow Survey. The reports show good news — the rate of cycling to and from school has increased from a record low in 2011. For more detailed trends, refer to the regional reports for each of these jurisdictions.
A summary report on the successes of the 2017 campaign, which involved 421 schools and over 25,000 students across the GTHA. CultureLink has been coordinating Bike to School Week since 2015, as part of the Bike Month campaign run by Cycle Toronto and Metrolinx. Stakeholders from the GTHA ASST Regional Hub contributed to planning and led local implementation.
In 2013, Metrolinx and the Ministry of Transportation funded the development of the ASST Strategy Roadmap. The ASST Strategy Roadmap process brought together over 30 stakeholders from across Ontario to collectively determine what was needed to support the goal of “more children walking, biking or rolling to school.” A key next step from that work was to support and facilitate the strategic planning of ASST initiatives within each of the six regions in the GTHA. This project was undertaken to fulfil that next step. Green Communities Canada was retained to lead the work, with assistance from Ryerson University, Public Space Workshop and WSP | MMM Group.
A summary report on the successes of the 2016 campaign. Starting in 2015, Cycle Toronto and Metrolinx agreed to create a school campaign called “Bike to School Week”. CultureLink, the Cycle Toronto partner leading the Bike to School Project and other education programs, was brought in to coordinate. Stakeholders from the GTHA ASST Regional Hub contributed to planning and led local implementation.
A collaboration between the University of Toronto and Metrolinx, these reports examine travel trends in active school travel (AST) across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). The GTHA is comprised of the cities of Toronto and Hamilton and the regions of Durham, Halton, Peel, and York. For more detailed trends, refer to the regional reports for each of these jurisdictions. The reports provide an update to previous work and include the region of Hamilton, which was absent from the previous study, and data from 2011.
Although it seemed like AST across the GTHA had reached its lowest possible level by 2006, walking and cycling mode share has continued to decline into 2011. These reports also look at differences in AST by age, gender, time of day, and by city or regional municipality (i.e. Toronto, Durham, Halton, Hamilton, Peel, and York).
A two-phase study on the subject of children’s school travel and independent mobility in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. The first phase examines the relationship between social factors, elements of neighbourhood design and the available supply of transport options and school transportation across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, and within the City of Toronto. Also studied are the social and environmental correlates of children’s independent mobility (travelling about the neighbourhood or city without adult supervision) within the region. The child travelling independently is the child learning a range of spatial skills while accumulating a wealth of knowledge regarding the use of active transportation in everyday life.
The second phase of the work takes a closer look into how social and built environments produce differences in school travel and children’s independent mobility across the City of Toronto.
The principal investigators of this study are Dr. Ron Buliung, Kristian Larsen, and Dr. Guy Faulkner, University of Toronto, with research funding support from Metrolinx.
The study illustrates how School Travel Planning and the community partnerships it facilitates are helping more students to get active on the school trip. Case studies show how ten different Ontario communities coordinate multiple stakeholders, address pedestrian and cycling infrastructure and develop education and policies to support a shift in travel behaviour. This study was prepared for Metrolinx by Green Communities Canada.
A full day forum was held o n May 17, 2012 to determine how school siting (school location) and school site design (physical features of school grounds) can better support the use of sustainable school travel modes. Representatives from across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, including government, not-for-profit and private sectors attended in an attempt to take the first steps in solving this issue. This report summarizes the discussions, presentations and findings that were showcased during the forum.
1986, 1996, 2006 and 2011 Travel Surveys for the GTHA compiled by the Transportation Tomorrow Survey Technical Committee. The first attempt at a comprehensive travel survey was the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Transportation Study (MTARTS), which in 1964 conducted the first comprehensive urban travel survey using home interviews at a sample of approximately 3% of the households in the Toronto area. At that time, the survey area included most of the urban area. Subsequently, the urban area expanded and was sub-divided into a collection of regional jurisdictions. Each jurisdiction then undertook various travel surveys.
Following from the 2009 study (below), the 2011 school travel study of 1,000 GTHA parents gathered further information about the barriers and opportunities regarding active and sustainable transportation to and from schools. The study presents supportive measures that parents said would promote walking, cycling, and carpooling for elementary school travel.
As the nature of the “school run” shifts to more drop off/pick up of students by car, traffic safety issues, air pollution and missed opportunities for exercise are becoming increasingly common in countries around the world. The Review of International School Travel Planning Best Practices provides updates on best practices being used to approach these issues in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, the United States, Australia, and Canada.
The Stepping It Up pilot project used the Canadian School Travel Planning (STP) model and Smart Commute workplace program to promote active and sustainable modes of school travel for students, families and staff. Between 2009 and 2011, it was delivered at 30 elementary schools in the cities of Hamilton, Brampton, and Mississauga. The project received funding from Transport Canada’s eco MOBILITY program, and was led by Metrolinx in partnership with the Region of Peel, City of Hamilton, Green Communities Canada and the University of Toronto. Read the final project report to learn about the project results, lessons learned and next steps.
Beyond working with schools, Stepping It Up is making connections to address the underlying gaps in facilitating active and sustainable school travel. In January 2011, Metrolinx hosted the first gathering of school travel stakeholders for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area to foster dialogue about the future of this initiative.
A summary report on the successes of the 2015 campaign. In planning for Bike Month 2015, Cycle Toronto and Metrolinx agreed to create a school campaign called “Bike to School Week”. Culture Link, the Cycle Toronto partner leading the Bike to School Project and other education programs, was brought in to coordinate. Stakeholders from the GTHA ASST Regional Hub contributed to planning and led local implementation.

This how-to article discusses the process or instructions needed to install a motorcycle ground anchor on your motorcycle. This task is a moderate level task for a do-it-yourselfer. Ground anchor kits consist of a u-shaped object made of steel that is set into the ground of your driveway or garage and secured with adhesive. A heavy duty chain goes through the frame and/or front tire of the motorcycle, making it difficult for a thief to make off with your prized possession.
Make sure, as a tip or mistake to avoid, that you are comfortable working with a concrete drill because this tool is needed to make the holes necessary to set the motorcycle anchor into the ground. Other than this requirement, the process for installing a motorcycle ground anchor is straightforward and just requires some muscle and time.
To install a motorcycle ground anchor you need to purchase a motorcycle ground anchor kit. This can be found at an auto parts store, motorcycle dealership and equipment store, or ordered online. The cost for a kit is around $75 to $100, so it is not that expensive of a purchase.
You will also need to rent a concrete drill and purchase a drill bit that is designed to make holes in your concrete driveway. This can be found at a tool rental center in your community or at a home improvement center, such as Lowes or Home Depot.
You will need to drill the holes in your concrete driveway where you plan to install the ground anchor. Most kits come with a template or stencil for making the holes, so use it as your guide once you determine where you want to secure the motorcycle.
Once you locate the spot for the installation of the anchor, set the stencil on the ground and place masking tape around it in order to hold it in place. Place the drill bit over the holes in the stencil and drill about 1 inch or so into the driveway. Once the holes have been made through the stencil, remove the paper template and discard.
With the holes drilled from the stencil into the driveway, set the anchors inside and pour the concrete adhesive to secure the anchor in place. Hold the anchor upright for several minutes after you pour the adhesive to make sure that it sets properly and that the anchor remains upright. Once the adhesive begins to harden, allow it to settle undisturbed for several hours before attempting to secure the motorcycle to the anchor with the heavy duty Nike chain.
Test the anchor for movement by moving it back and forth vigorously.

Mandaikadu Bhagavathi Temple is a major pilgrim center in Mandaikkadu. It is dedicated to Goddess Parvati also known as Bhagavathi. It is located near Colachel in the western coast of Kanyakumari.
This is one among the most renowned and important Hindu temples in the district. The Kodai festival at Mandaicadu is a major celebration which is celebrated in March every year.
It was believed that the 15 feet anthill was a form of goddess Parvati. Gradually, the temple became religiously significant to devotees and remains so today.
The temple houses holy trees of Bo and Neem. A puja is performed every day at the temple, four times. Women for whom the temple is called ‘sabrimala’ especially flock to the temple with their ‘Irumudi’ (a bundle that contains puja items).
Kodai festival is a great celebration at the temple. This festival is celebrated for 10 day.

Ask Sheffield United’s first team squad about play-off hoodoos and you’re likely to receive either the Ancelotti Eyebrow or a vacant stare, writes James Shield.
Past failures in end-of-season competition have little or no meaning for the majority of those at Nigel Clough’s disposal. And because, as Ryan Flynn explained, this latest campaign has a twist.
“We’re all looking forward to the play-offs. That’s probably the biggest change this time around and it could make a huge difference.
Flynn, as his words suggest, is a survivor of two previous attempts to gain promotion via the knockout route. First, in 2012, when unforeseen circumstances and Steve Simonsen’s missed penalty denied them an immediate return to the Championship before, a year later, they were beaten by eventual winners Yeovil Town.
Although finishing 20 points off the top two pace represents, by the manager’s own admission, a disappointing return for a side which reached the last four of the Capital One Cup, Flynn told The Star it might yet work in United’s favour.
Flynn’s colleague and compatriot Jason Holt features among the options to arrive at Bramall Lane since the turn of the year which means tonight’s semi-final first leg opponents Swindon Town will face a different test to the one they encountered in January.
The former Scotland under-21 midfielder enters tonight’s match searching for his sixth goal in nine games after joining on loan from Heart of Midlothian.
“Holty has been going on about how much he’s a champion and how he’s won the league already up there,” Flynn, who supports Edinburgh rivals Hibernian, continued. “He’s a top guy and he’s settled in really quickly. His performances have shown that.
“Jason’s experience helps but, basically, he’s just a really good footballer and the way we play suits him. He’s a brave player and he likes getting on the ball, making runs. Because we don’t go back to front, it’s been a pretty seamless transition.
“It reminds me of Scouggs (Stefan Scougall), when he came down (from Livingston), in many ways. He loved it too.
Flynn is among a clutch of players hoping to face Swindon after recovering from injury. Having been deployed both on the wing and at full-back following Clough’s appointment, his versatility could prove crucial against the visitors from Wiltshire.
“I just do whatever the manager wants. If he asks for different roles in a game, that’s game management.
“I’m pretty easy going. I’ll slot in wherever the manager wants me to play.
Barring a shock result, Monday’s return leg, not today’s contest, will decide who faces Chesterfield or Preston North End at Wembley Stadium in a little over two weeks time.
The format means United will attempt to draw upon the experience they gained during skirmishes with the likes of Southampton, Queens Park Rangers and, of course, Spurs.
“A few of us will be driven by what happened at Yeovil,” Flynn admitted. “You learn something from that.

This type of white collar crime has to do with those individuals who are stealing money by some sort of means from their employer. Normally, the federal government is not going to get involved with some small case involving a mom-and-pop store where someone is stealing money. Usually the state will deal with that in any of the state government across the country.
Where the feds get involved in these embezzlement cases at the criminal level is when large dollars are being taken — there’s a sophisticated scheme, big companies are being stolen from — that’s probably where the line is drawn. But of course, I’ve seen all sorts of exceptions to that. Sometimes it’s just a matter of the people who are being stolen from, how they find out and who they contact once they find out. If they contact the FBI and the case is big enough for them to take, then the federal government is going to be involved.
If on the other hand, they contact the police and get to the right detectives on the case, then there’s a major fraud unit — especially here in Los Angeles and probably across the country — that will deal with an embezzlement case. The difference between embezzlement and just regular theft is, the embezzler sits in a position of trust in a particular job, company or business and they use that trust and that special knowledge or special position that they sit in in order to take money.
I’ve seen some of these big companies that have millions of dollars and they have employees who are right in the middle of their bank accounts who have authority — especially if they team-up and you have a manager and an employee working together — they’re right in the middle of being able to move large dollar amounts to their own bank accounts. Why somebody would do that really doesn’t make any sense because eventually, obviously, the government is going to find out about it because the employer, if they do some sort of an audit or they have some sort of a back-check, is going to realize that dollars are missing.
Really what I see happening is, even though people will get away with it for months and even years, they become greedy. They go too far and then the company starts to miss the money and then they get an investigation going. They have an audit done. They bring somebody in who specializes in figuring out why companies are losing money and employees who embezzle money, what they do, what type of schemes they use, and how to figure it out.
So, if you’ve got an embezzlement case at the federal level, you’re facing some significant penalties because the government is very harsh when it comes to individuals taking money from their employers. You’re going to be ordered to pay back in restitution and you’re also likely to be ordered to serve some federal custody depending on the amount of the loss, your criminal record, how sophisticated the scheme was, how vulnerable the employer was at the time the embezzlement occurred, who your judge is at the time of your sentencing, and how the prosecutors proceeds with the case. So, there’s a whole bunch of different factors that go into these embezzlement cases — how they’re prosecuted — and what the ultimate result is.
Some people have a defense to their embezzlement case and the government’s got it wrong. And if that’s the situation, obviously you’re going to need to sit down with a California federal criminal defense attorney who understands these embezzlement cases, knows what it takes to prove them, understands the jury instructions that are going to be read to the jury and also understands how the jury is going to evaluate an embezzlement case at the federal level.
So, I would encourage you to pick up the phone. Give me a call. We can discuss it over the phone and we can also meet face-to-fact and if you’re serious about hiring someone who’s been down the road you’re about to travel. You’ve come to the right place. We can talk about your embezzlement case and figure out what The Hedding Law Firm can do to help you and put you in the best possible position moving forward.

Depending on the amount of money/assets embezzled, you may face a significant amount of time in jail and have excessive fines imposed on you.

Clean skin care means selecting products that are free from ingredients that disrupt the skin's pH balance, strip it from its natural flora and cause gradual long term damage to the stratum corneum by causing it to become sensitized, inflamed and dried up.
Ingredients to avoid are all sulfates and laureates found in foaming cleansing products. Cleansers that preserve the skin's pH and its microbiota will use sugar tensides in their mildly foaming cleansers known as glucosides.
Petroleum gel, Paraffin, Mineral Oil, PEGs (polyethylene glycol), are synthetic emulsifiers and humectants that form the base of many high end skin care brands. They envelop the skin with an impenetrable cover, clogging the skin's pores causing break outs in younger skin, and choking the breath out of older skin slowing the natural cycle of cell turn over and causing the skin to age prematurely. Clean quality skin care will use caprylic/capric triglycerides which is a coconut ester, vegetable glycerin, jojoba oil, squalene, shea butter fruit extract and other plant based emulsifiers as its base. These natural ingredients are a lot more costly but are skin identical and will heal and improve the skin's quality in the short and long term.
Last but not least on the list of ingredients to avoid are all synthetic alcohols/the bad alcohols which dry out the skin, and strip it of its natural oils causing it to become irritated and sensitized. Isopropyl alcohol or Isopropanol, Denatured alcohol, SD or CD alcohol, are all synthetic alcohols that need to be avoided. Fatty alcohols and natural grain alcohol such as acetyl/cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol are good alcohols used in clean natural skin care as emollients, stabilizers and natural preservatives.
Finally all synthetic preservatives such as parabens, phenoxyethanols, and formaldehyde releasers should be avoided. Natural preservatives such as naturally derived Propylene glycol (a mixture of vegetable glycerin and grain alcohol) as well as natural fragrances from aromatic plants are the cleaner alternative used in quality natural skin case.
