Goalies Should Not Be Playing Defense UNC Lacrosse vs. Emily English of Boston College
LacrosseGoalieTips.com Podcast
I have NEVER understood we women's coaches feel that it's a good idea for women's lax goalies to play defense in certain situations. This tactic has also trickled into the boy's game more and more and it's resulting in a couple of really bad situations in the game of lacrosse, 1) defenders who can't play defense, and 2) lacrosse goalies who are out of position.

DVD Review: THE SUN
Studio: Lorber Films
Cast: Issei Ogata, Robert Dawson, Kaori Momoi, Shiro Sano, Taijiro Tamura, Georgy Pitskhelauri
Director: Alexander Sokurov
Rating: NR for (adult situations)
Genre(s): foreign
�And if the Americans should show up here, what will happen to the day�s schedule?� - Emperor Hirohito (Issei Ogata)
Buy Now @ Amazon
This is yet another study of a famous dictator by the brilliant director of Russian Ark, so I'm expecting the praise that's been heaped upon the film over the years to be warranted.
Movie Grade: A
DVD Grade: C
It�s not much of a stretch to say that the biopic has been done to death in recent years, but it�s always great when a director puts an original touch on this clich�d subgenre. One such director is Aleksandr Sokurov, the man behind the amazing Russian Ark, and the first two films in his tetralogy: Molokh and Taurus. The third film in his tetrology is 2005�s The Sun, which chronicles Japanese Emperor Hirohito and the aftermath of Japan�s defeat in World War II. Sure, it sounds like a straight-forward biopic at the basest of levels, but thanks to Sokurov�s unique vision and an amazing performance by the lead, The Sun more than stands out among a crowded field of similar fare.
Japanese Emperor Hirohito (Issei Ogata) is living his post-World War II defeat days out in his palace, once a hot bed of military activity. Now, it�s been relegated to a nearly-empty shell of a mansion, with only the Emperor and a handful of servants remaining. Hirohito begins to sense that the end of his reign is imminent when U.S. troops arrive and place him under house arrest. They mock him, saying he is the spitting image of Charlie Chaplin, and transport him to a series of meetings with General MacArthur (Robert Dawson). Together they attempt to construct a plan that involves a transfer of power and a means to make the Emperor seem at least somewhat sympathetic, despite his actions during the War.
The manner in which Sokurov structures his film is engaging from the start, despite a rather slow pace to the proceedings. While some audiences might be turned off by such a languid flow, hopefully most will find it breathtakingly original. We open with a look at Hirohito�s morning routine, from waking to tackling his newfound hobby, marine biology. This taps into things that we might never have thought of in such material, as biopics generally concern themselves with the facts of a war or historical figures life, while Sokurov goes an extra step and shows us that these people had to do something to occupy their time when they weren�t in the heat of battle or contributing to modern day text books.
A huge part of the film�s effectiveness is the award-worthy performance by Issei Ogata as Hirohito. He�s simply mesmerizing to watch, embodying every minute detail of the Emperor�s physical appearance, from his odd teeth to the strange way his mouth moves when he speaks. Ogata portrays Hirohito�s strange mouth (which almost moves like a fish�s at times) in a way that could have easily been a major distraction, but instead only enhances the compelling oddness of this historical figure. Thanks to Ogata, we feel the internal emotional struggles Hirohito endures, but at the same time, we�re never sure if he�s entirely right in the head. This is a truly dynamic performance that has gone criminally unnoticed until (hopefully) now.
I�m really not sure why it took five years for The Sun to make it to DVD, but, thanks to Lorber Films, it�s finally available. Unfortunately, the video quality is far from perfect, and, at times, even difficult to watch. This has everything to do with a shoddy transfer, and nothing to do with the style and method that Sokurov shot the film in, however. He used a digital camera to shoot the film himself, adding to the realistic feel of the film. Unfortunately, the transfer suffers from far too many digital artifacts and a ton of compression issues, which drag it down far too often. The audio fares much better than the video, with the eerie, atmospheric soundtrack adding to the dark mood of the film. A couple of throw-away extras add to the disappointing quality of the DVD, but just having the opportunity to finally watch The Sun is a welcome thing, indeed.

Any hair accessory is significant because it gives your look a stylish note. For instance, you can easily make this lovely butterfly hairpin.
The piece of cloth should be folded, shaped like a triangular pocket. The pin should then be inserted to keep the cloth folded, after which the folded sides should be sewn before you can start to make the wings of the butterfly.
The 2 pins should be used in maintaining the position of the wings; then the wings should be sewn so they stay in the same shape.
The pins should be taken off after the sewing is completed.
Then, the butterfly should be glued on a hair elastic or hair pin.

Shenmo Education is a worldwide organization with over 6,000 branches and specializing in Mental Math programs. Fun for the whole brain and fun for all ages.
Recent studies have shown that the abacus method of mental calculation is effective in the development of the right brain. At first, this idea was only a hypothesis, but the recent development of high-tech machinery has helped provide tangible research data. In this section, we will present information provided by researchers who study the effects of abacus training.
Want to try a class?
Abacus Competition was held successfully in Beijing, China!
In July 22nd and 23rd 2017, Shenmo Education held a huge event and competition in China, Beijing. Over 1,000 students from 18 countries across the world were invited to join and competition. They showed their super skills of mental arithmetic ability. During the competition "Little Mental Arithmetic Doctor International Tournament", students could gives answers very quickly right after the math equations were announced. Some of the students could even calculated faster than calculators do!
On Saturday June 3, 2017, Shenmo Mental Math held a competition for its Abacus students from all over San Diego. Students who have attended our classes were invited to join this mental math exercises and challenge event. Get ready to see some amazing minds at work!
This year, we welcomed the Year of the Rooster (January 28) with a student performance at Barnard Elementary School. Our team of talented kids showcased their Abacus skills onstage by solving complicated math equations without pencil or paper – not your typical form of entertainment, which goes to show that mental math is as amazing to watch as it is to learn.

The tour highlighted VIMS research activities with potential economic benefits to the Commonwealth. Here, ABC Director Stan Allen (L), describes efforts to advance oyster aquaculture in Chesapeake Bay. Photo by David Malmquist.
Professor Stan Allen of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science joined exalted company in late October when he received an Inventor of the Year Award from the New Jersey Inventors Hall of Fame, whose inaugural class includes Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein.
Allen, who directs the Aquaculture Genetics and Breeding Technology Center (ABC) at VIMS, was honored with colleague Ximing Guo for their "product by process" patent for oysters with two extra sets of chromosomes. The pair accomplished their breakthrough in 1994 while at Rutgers University, where Guo continues to work. Allen arrived at VIMS in 1997 as ABC's first director.
Allen and Guo's invention—plus subsequent enhancements at VIMS and Rutgers—has revolutionized oyster aquaculture worldwide, including its recent rapid growth in lower Chesapeake Bay. More than 90 per cent of Virginia's farmed oysters result from the production method they created. The ABC hatchery at VIMS currently operates the most extensive breeding program for oysters in the U.S., and arguably the largest in the world.
Allen and Guo's oysters are called "tetraploids" because they contain four chromosomes in each cell nucleus rather than the pair of chromosomes found in regular "diploid" oysters. Breeding tetraploids with diploids in turn creates "triploid" oysters, whose three sets of chromosomes renders them incapable of reproduction. The same general process is used to create seedless fruit.
Because triploid oysters devote no energy to reproduction, they grow to market size more quickly than fertile oysters, produce more meat, and can be harvested during summertime when spawning-associated decreases in meat quality normally puts the harvest of wild oysters off limits.
The rapid growth of triploid oysters is particularly important in Chesapeake Bay, where a pair of oyster diseases—MSX and Dermo—has devastated wild stocks. Because of their faster growth, triploid oysters reach market size in about 18 months, 6 to 12 months before their wild brethren and importantly before the usual age of disease-associated mortality. The triploids have also been found to be more tolerant to the two diseases, for reasons still unknown.
Not one to rest on his laurels, Allen and his colleagues in ABC's oyster hatchery at VIMS continue to conduct basic and applied research on all aspects of oyster biology and domestication, including studies of the process by which tetraploids are produced and selection for even better disease tolerance in the triploid oysters that now dominate aquaculture in Virginia.
Those operations continue to grow, with the latest figures from VIMS' annual report on the economics of shellfish aquaculture showing a 20% increase between 2011 and 2012 in the number of farmed oysters sold by Virginia growers—from 23.3 to 28.1 million—with 2012 sales valued at $9.5 million. Total direct employment associated with sales of farmed oysters in 2012 reached 70 full-time and 106 part-time jobs in the Commonwealth.

No Vacancy (2012)
Movie Review by The Gravedigger
In the opening title sequence there's news footage about an orphanage being set on fire and many of the residents burning, an event that will probably have to do with events that happen later in the movie. Next, we're introduced to a group of friends in a van (of course), who are heading to Las Vegas. There's an African-American couple, a white guy with a Hispanic girlfrien, a jock with a blonde and a nerd with a camera. They come to a suspicious detour sign and take this alternate route, only to blow a few tires. So they guys start walking down the empty highway, to eventually come to a diner/gas station/motel where the employees seem extra helpful. In fact, they say they'll repair their van for free. They bring the women back there, party that night and when they wake up find themselves either handcuffed or locked in their rooms. And all the rooms are being monitored by hidden cameras. The crazy leader informs them that he and his employees are "The Helpers", helping put people out of their misery. It turns out that they were orphan survivors from that orphanage at the beginning of the film, which obviously messed them up. And they are now torturing these people simply because "they asked for help".
The special effects are great. There's an effective beheading, a woman ripped in two, tied between two cars, and some electrocutions. NO VACANCY is best described as a cross between HOSTEL and the VACANCY movies, so it puts you through the ringer.

Prince Harry celebrates his 34th birthday on Saturday 15 September, his first as a married man and as the Duke of Sussex.
We've seen him grow from being a cheeky little chap throughout his childhood and teenage years, to a man who is passionate about his charity work and helping others.
After becoming a Commonwealth Youth Ambassador earlier this year, the Duke and his wife Meghan will be heading out on a tour of Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga next month.
While Kensington Palace have not spoken about Harry's plans for his birthday, we can imagine it'll be spent with Meghan and their closest friends and family.

UPCOMING Dakota County "Education Night" EVENT! As always this is a FREE event.
Tuesday May 14th 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM screening of "Suicide: The Ripple Effect" at Mother Mary Church in Burnsville. Please bring friends and family to this unique and inspirational documentary! For more information click here.
One in five people will experience a mental illness each year. These illnesses affect people of any age, race, religion, or socioeconomic status, and they affect the entire family. Mental illnesses are biological brain disorders and can disrupt a person's thinking, feelings, mood, ability to relate to others, and daily functioning. Mental illnesses are treatable medical conditions and thanks to research and medical advances, recovery is possible. Many people feel isolated by a mental illness due to the stigma and misinformation surrounding these conditions. If your life has been touched by a mental illness, you are not alone!
NAMI Dakota County is committed to improving the quality of life for people living with mental illnesses, erasing the stigma of mental illness, referring families and friends to existing resources, and influencing public policy. We provide education and support for people living with mental illnesses, their families, professionals and the community. WE WANT YOU...to be informed and supported. Come to one of our meetings, support groups, classes, or events. All of our programs are offered free of charge.
NAMI Dakota Education Meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of the month from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Mary Mother of the Church (3333 Cliff Road, Burnsville, MN).

Nicholas Baltone is a teen with Asperger's Syndrome and ADHD. He has always had a hard time distinguishing the correct way to act in social situations and controlling his emotions. However, he has a passion- ice hockey. Ever since his dad brought home tickets to a game when he was younger he's been hooked. He can tell you all of the statistics for every player on the Tampa Bay Lightning and has his entire room decorated in team memorabilia.
Nick's dream has always been to play hockey like his brother Justin and become the next Vincent Lecavalier, but his mother prohibits it. Instead, he skates on a pond behind his house, practicing on his own with his brother's old equipment. One day a group of kids from school happen to spot Nick skating and shooting around by himself and suggest a game of pick-up hockey. What they didn't realize, is he is just as good, if not better, than all of them.
As Nick's talent on the ice begins to be recognized he has to face a multitude of challenges. He has to acknowledge and respond correctly to social cues, remember plays, get into a daily routine and most importantly, manage his emotions on and off the ice. With all of these challenges will Nick be able to change people's perception of him or will he simply fall flat and stick to the pond?

Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2017, e047
The Taipan galaxy survey (hereafter simply 'Taipan') is a multi-object spectroscopic survey starting in 2017 that will cover 2π steradians over the southern sky (δ ≲ 10°, |b| ≳ 10°), and obtain optical spectra for about two million galaxies out to z < 0.4. Taipan will use the newly refurbished 1.2-m UK Schmidt Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory with the new TAIPAN instrument, which includes an innovative 'Starbugs' positioning system capable of rapidly and simultaneously deploying up to 150 spectroscopic fibres (and up to 300 with a proposed upgrade) over the 6° diameter focal plane, and a purpose-built spectrograph operating in the range from 370 to 870 nm with resolving power R ≳ 2000. The main scientific goals of Taipan are (i) to measure the distance scale of the Universe (primarily governed by the local expansion rate, H 0) to 1% precision, and the growth rate of structure to 5%; (ii) to make the most extensive map yet constructed of the total mass distribution and motions in the local Universe, using peculiar velocities based on improved Fundamental Plane distances, which will enable sensitive tests of gravitational physics; and (iii) to deliver a legacy sample of low-redshift galaxies as a unique laboratory for studying galaxy evolution as a function of dark matter halo and stellar mass and environment. The final survey, which will be completed within 5 yrs, will consist of a complete magnitude-limited sample (i ⩽ 17) of about 1.2 × 106 galaxies supplemented by an extension to higher redshifts and fainter magnitudes (i ⩽ 18.1) of a luminous red galaxy sample of about 0.8 × 106 galaxies. Observations and data processing will be carried out remotely and in a fully automated way, using a purpose-built automated 'virtual observer' software and an automated data reduction pipeline. The Taipan survey is deliberately designed to maximise its legacy value by complementing and enhancing current and planned surveys of the southern sky at wavelengths from the optical to the radio; it will become the primary redshift and optical spectroscopic reference catalogue for the local extragalactic Universe in the southern sky for the coming decade.
Mapping the Cosmic Web with the largest all-sky surveys
Maciej Bilicki, John A. Peacock, Thomas H. Jarrett, Michelle E. Cluver, Louise Steward
Journal: Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union / Volume 11 / Issue S308 / June 2014
Our view of the low-redshift Cosmic Web has been revolutionized by galaxy redshift surveys such as 6dFGS, SDSS and 2MRS. However, the trade-off between depth and angular coverage limits a systematic three-dimensional account of the entire sky beyond the Local Volume (z < 0.05). In order to reliably map the Universe to cosmologically significant depths over the full celestial sphere, one must draw on multiwavelength datasets and state-of-the-art photometric redshift techniques. We have undertaken a dedicated program of cross-matching the largest photometric all-sky surveys – 2MASS, WISE and SuperCOSMOS – to obtain accurate redshift estimates of millions of galaxies. The first outcome of these efforts – the 2MASS Photometric Redshift catalog (2MPZ, Bilicki et al. 2014a) – has been publicly released and includes almost 1 million galaxies with a mean redshift of z=0.08. Here we summarize how this catalog was constructed and how using the WISE mid-infrared sample together with SuperCOSMOS optical data allows us to push to redshift shells of z∼ 0.2 –0.3 on unprecedented angular scales. Our catalogs, with ∼ 20 million sources in total, provide access to cosmological volumes crucial for studies of local galaxy flows (clustering dipole, bulk flow) and cross-correlations with the cosmic microwave background such as the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect or lensing studies.


'Beginning Consonant Blends' by Creative's is an innovative and 2 in 1 game to introduce children to consonants while developing their language skills.
'Beginning Consonant Blends' is a set of a board game and match ups that introduces children to the consonants in a playful manner. Consonants are all the letters in the alphabet that are not vowels. There are 21 of them. Consonants make the most of the word sounds. In this game, consonants are blended or joined together in clusters of 2 letters at a time that makes distinct consonant sound, such as bl, cr, sh etc. Using 25 three piece self-correcting Match-ups, the child will match a blend with two corresponding pictures beginning with that blend. Similarly, children can use the play board with 30 blend play cards to race and reach the finish space by naming maximum words beginning with consonants blends. Thus, by playing the game children will be able to read hundreds of new words easily and accurately.

Q: not all fields are copied from mongodb to solr after integration using mongo-connector I am able to successfully integrate between MONGODB & SOLR, using MONGO-CONNECTOR. And whenever, I update or add any thing, in the sample collection i have created, it copies only two or three fields in a documents, and rest of the fields data are not copied into solr. This is some thing I am not able to do it.
This is my collection and its document details. Name of collection: testdb
document inserted as follows:
db.testdb.insert( {
...  _id: "101",
...  name: "test",
...  description: "descr",
...  mydesc: "mydescr",
...  nmdsc: "nmdsc1",
...  coords: "coords1"
...  })

And the data sync between solr and mongo logs says successful:
2014-01-17 19:35:38,462 - INFO - Finished 'http://<hostname>:<port>/solr/update/?co
mmit=true' (post) with body '<add><doc>' in 0.210 seconds.

But when I execute a query to see the document data it says only these fields data:
{
    "responseHeader": {
        "status": 0,
        "QTime": 0,
        "params": {
            "q": "*:*",
            "wt": "json"
        }
    },
    "response": {
        "numFound": 1,
        "start": 0,
        "docs": [
            {
                "id": "101",
                "description": "descr",
                "name": "test",
                "_version_": 1457486601392226300
            }
        ]
    }
}

Clearly i can see that following fields & respective data are not copied into solr:
...  mydesc: "mydescr",
...  nmdsc: "nmdsc1",
...  coords: "coords1"

Following is my schema.xml:
<schema name="narayana" version="1.5">

  <solrQueryParser defaultOperator="AND" />
  <copyField source="name" dest="nmdsc" />
  <copyField source="description" dest="nmdsc" />
</schema>

A: You are defining your configuration to copy only two specific fields, if you want to index additional fields, you should be adding them to your configuration file and the same import cycle again:
  <!-- we don't want too many results in this usecase -->
  <solrQueryParser defaultOperator="AND" />
  <copyField source="name" dest="nmdsc" />
  <copyField source="description" dest="nmdsc" />

An open-label trial, or open trial, is a type of clinical trial in which information is not withheld from trial participants. In particular, both the researchers and participants know which treatment is being administered. This contrasts with a double-blinded trial, where information is withheld both from the researchers and the participants to reduce bias.

Open-label trials may be appropriate for comparing two similar treatments to determine which is most effective, such as a comparison of different prescription anticoagulants, or possible relief from symptoms of some disorders when a placebo is given.

An open-label trial may still be randomized. Open-label trials may also be uncontrolled (without a placebo group), with all participants receiving the same treatment.

The Puma Blues #20
Story and pencils: Peter Laird
Inks: Kevin Eastman
Out in the middle of a swamp, a hunter is aiming his rifle at a flying manta. As he prepares to fire, a shuriken suddenly flies out of nowhere and sticks into the side of his rifle. The hunter looks to some nearby rocks on the shore and spots a cloaked figure wearing a woven Japanese hat. Looking through his binoculars, the hunter glimpses the figure taunting him with a handful of shuriken and throwing knives. As the hunter fires his rifle, the figure hurls his knives at the raft, deflating it.
Sinking, the hunter pulls his busted raft to shore near the rocks where he spotted the figure. There is a huge hole in the rocks from where his shot connected, but no body to be found. Frustrated, the hunter kicks his busted raft and goes home.
From a tree just above the rocks, the figure sits watching with amusement. He reveals himself to be an elderly, one-eyed Raphael. Raph reaches into his cloak and releases the flying manta that he'd been protecting.
*This story takes place in the "future" portion of the Mirage timeline.
*Raph's future life in the swamp will be seen again in "A Christmas Carol" originally published in the 2nd printing of Michaelangelo (microseries) #1. How he lost his eye will be revealed in Tales of the TMNT (Vol. 2) #69.
*This issue also featured over a dozen other comics and pin-ups, by various creative bigwigs from the '80s indie comics scene.
*The proper designation of story, pencils and inks between Eastman and Laird was not published in the credits, but was revealed in Laird's editorial for TMNT (Vol. 1) #15.
And here's yet another back-up comic strip featuring the Turtles that I'm reviewing because I'm too busy/lazy to get back to doing full issues.
"Choices" is another one of those rare back-up strips that I had no idea existed until somebody mentioned it in passing on a forum. I'd like to think I have them all by now, but Mirage pumped out so many of these things across so many indie books during the '80s, tracking them all down can be a bit of a challenge.
"The Puma Blues" is a comic I've heard so much about, but never really took the time to get into. I really don't know a whole lot about it, other than nearly all the Mirage guys were involved with it in some capacity, it was big into environmentalist messages and flying mantas were everywhere. Eh. It's on my "to read" list.
This issue, though, boasted the one and only TMNT back-up strip to appear in the series and also ranks as one of the earliest glimpses at the "future" era of the Mirage Turtles. Mirage's future Turtles were always something of a mystery, as for the longest time their stories were relegated only to brief back-up strips with little context other than "something happens to them in the future that's really depressing". The second volume of Tales of the TMNT eventually expanded upon these mysteries, offering us full-length stories with the future Turtles, though still keeping the audience in the dark enough to maintain the mystery of what exactly drove them all apart.
This strip, though, acts as something of a sequel to "A Christmas Carol", where we got our first peek at Raph's future self: a one-eyed loner living in a swamp. How he got there and what happened to his eye, well, we still don't know. The strip is another silent one, ala "The Road Trip", telling the story strictly through visuals. Laird and Eastman pull it off, doing a great job of capturing Raph's attitude strictly through his expressions and actions. Raph's still a bit of a jackass in the future (as seen in the way he taunts the hunter), but with his soft side still creeping through as he protects a defenseless animal.
Not much else to say. It's just a nice little story with the added bonus of giving us a peek at Mirage's future Turtles, published at a time when we knew even less about them.
Grade: B (as in, "But with all the environmental messages in this issue alone, it comes as no surprise to me that The Puma Blues was co-created by Stephen Murphy".)

Thanks for bringing this one to light! I never knew if there were any TMNT stories in the Puma Blues. It does strike me as a pretty out-there book with a preachy theme. Maybe I'll give it a look sometime.
You should look at the Plastron Cafe issues or the "Mirage Mini-Comics" issue (there is a "Forgotten TMNT Adventue" in there) next!
Mark Pellegrini said...
I actually already have all of Plastron Cafe and the Mirage Minicomic collection (I've even reviewed the Forgotten TMNT Adventures issue!). Some good stuff in there.
I intend to get around to reviewing the TMNT portions of those books (gonna skip the non TMNT stuff since it doesn't pertain to this blog...well, except maybe the Gizmo stuff, but just because I like Gizmo).
-Spengs
Dude, I picked up "The Collected Gizmo" graphic novel (published by Mirage) signed by Dooney at my local comic store for the ultra sweet deal price of 3 bucks! Well worth it! Gizmo is a pretty cool character that I wish would show up again.
Also, I'm really interested to see a detailed look at the Mini Comic, especially the TMNT story. Where did you review it at? I've seen a copy laying around my local store priced at about 7-8 bucks but have held off buying so far.
I have all the individual issues of Gizmo, the two-part Fugitoid crossover and most of the various back-up strips he's been in. Might get around to reviewing them some day, but I still got a lot of TMNT to take care of...
As for my review of the Forgotten TMNTA minicomic:
http://tmntentity.blogspot.com/2008/07/mirage-mini-comics-collection-story-4.html
There were two other TMNT comics in that collection: a Casey Jones-centric one and a comedy piece about an overweight hippo woman with an inflatable Donatello toy.
The rest of the comics were unrelated to the TMNT universe, but some were pretty good.

Shouldn't this technically be in the Mirage section?
Puma Blues was published by Aardvark One International, wasn't it?

Rescue & relief operations by BRO in flood-hit Himachal Pradesh
BRO deploys its personnel and equipment to clear landslides in different places
Restores traffic in Manali – Sarchu road
BRO teams rescue stranded people and move them to safer locations
Two BRO personnel lose their lives in the operations
Border Roads Organisation (BRO) is carrying out rescue & relief operations in Himachal Pradesh that is witnessing flash floods and landslides due to heavy rainfall. In the Lahaul & Spiti Valley, the strategic Manali – Sarchu road was closed for traffic at various places due to multiple landslides. BRO's Project Deepak located at Shimla immediately despatched its trained Engineering Task Force with personnel and equipment to undertake the rescue and road clearing operations.
On July 29, 2021, on one such stretch near Sarchu ahead of Baralachala pass on Manali Leh road, a number of civilians, including women and children, were stranded and facing problems due to lack of oxygen in inclement high-altitude conditions. The BRO team cleared the landslide, amidst a series of other landslides, near Kenlung Sarai located at an altitude of 14,480 ft and rescued the people. However, Naik Reetesh Kumar Pal of Project Deepak, who was part of the rescue efforts, lost his life. The road was, later, opened for traffic.
In another incident on July 27, 2021, a separate Engineer Task Force of BRO was deployed for clearance of Kiler–Tandi road which was blocked due to heavy landslides. Two passenger vehicles were stranded in the area. The team, which had already cleared two landslides enroute, carried out a late night clearance operation to save lives of civilians stranded in the slide zone. During the operation, some members of the team, six civilians and a civil vehicle were washed away by a sudden flash flood. Junior Engineer Rahul Kumar lost his life in the incident, while others were rescued by the BRO personnel.
The BRO personnel, later, cleared the landslide, rescued the stranded passengers and moved them to safer locations.


Intermittent wetland is a sedge- and herb-dominated wetland found along lakeshores or in depressions and characterized by fluctuating water levels, both seasonally and interannually. Intermittent wetlands exhibit traits of both peatlands and marshes, with characteristic vegetation including sedges (Carex spp.), rushes (Juncus spp.), sphagnum mosses, and ericaceous shrubs. The community occurs statewide.
Intermittent wetlands occur throughout Michigan on poorly drained flat areas or mild depressions of sandy glacial outwash and sandy glacial lakeplain and in kettle depressions on pitted outwash. The community is found in isolated depressions and along the shores of softwater, seepage lakes and ponds where water levels fluctuate both seasonally and yearly. Intermittent wetland may be bordered by several other wetland communities and may encircle floating bog mats. The sandy, well-drained uplands surrounding intermittent wetlands typically support fire-dependent pine and oak communities.
The sandy soils underlying intermittent wetlands are strongly to very strongly acidic and are primarily sands or occasionally loamy sands. Shallow organic deposits of peat or sandy peat may overlay the sandy substrate and in some basins, a clay layer may occur below the surface.
Water level fluctuations occur both seasonally and yearly within intermittent wetlands. Seasonally, water levels tend to be highest during the winter and spring and lowest in late summer and fall. The yearly oscillations are less predictable. Fluctuations of water level within intermittent wetlands allow for temporal variability of the accumulation and decomposition of organic matter. Stable periods of saturated and inundated conditions inhibit organic matter decomposition and allow for the accumulation of peat. Dam-building activities of beaver can result in blocked drainage and flooding, which facilitate sphagnum peat development and expansion. High decomposition rates within intermittent wetlands are correlated with periods of water level fluctuation, which promote oxidation and the loss of organic material that would otherwise form peat.
Water level fluctuation in intermittent wetlands facilitates seed germination and seed dispersal, and reduces competition from woody plants. Seasonal drawdowns are critical to the survival of many intermittent wetland species, especially annuals, which readily germinate from the exposed, saturated soils. Seasonal water level fluctuation also acts as an important mechanism for seed dispersal. During the winter and spring when water levels rise, seeds deposited along the low-water line float to the surface and are carried by wave action to the wetland's outer margin. In addition, high water levels can limit tree and shrub encroachment into intermittent wetlands since prolonged flooding can result in tree and shrub mortality.
Fire is also an important component of the natural disturbance regime of intermittent wetlands. Intermittent wetlands typically occur as small depressions within a fire-dependent landscape and would have likely experienced surface fires along with the surrounding uplands when conditions were favorable. Surface fire can contribute to the maintenance of open conditions by killing encroaching trees and shrubs. In the absence of fire, a thick layer of leaf litter can develop that stifles seed germination and seedling establishment. Fire severity and frequency in intermittent wetlands is closely related to fluctuations in water level. Prolonged periods of lowered water table can allow the vegetation and surface peat to dry out sufficiently to burn. When the surface peat of intermittent wetlands burns, the fire mineralizes the peat, and kills seeds and latent buds of some species while stimulating seed germination and stem sprouting of others. Peat fires likely convert bogs to more graminoid-dominated peatlands such as intermittent wetlands, poor fens, and northern wet meadow. Because fire has been shown to increase seed germination, enhance seedling establishment, and bolster flowering, fire likely acts as an important mechanism for maintaining plant species diversity and replenishing the seed banks of intermittent wetlands.
Intermittent wetland is a sedge- and herb-dominated wetland. In many locations, the community borders or encompasses a bog mat that supports sphagnum mosses, low ericaceous, evergreen shrubs, and widely scattered and stunted conifer trees. The flora of intermittent wetlands is characteristically dominated by monocotyledons, with annual species contributing significantly to overall species diversity. For the majority of species, flowering and seed set occur in late summer and fall, when water levels are lowest. However, species with bog affinities found on bog mats within these wetlands tend to be spring-flowering.
Intermittent wetlands typically contain several vegetation zones, especially when they are adjacent to or encircle a lake or pond. The deepest portion of the depression is usually inundated and supports floating aquatic plants including water shield (Brasenia schreberi), yellow pond-lily (Nuphar variegata), sweet-scented water-lily (Nymphaea odorata), pondweeds (Potamogeton spp.), and bladderworts (Utricularia spp.). Occurring along the lower shores and pond margins is a seasonally flooded zone with sparse cover of low forbs and graminoids including pipewort (Eriocaulon aquaticum), bright green spike-rush (Eleocharis flavescens), Robbin's spike-rush (E. robbinsii), autumn sedge (Fimbristylis autumnalis), brown-fruited rush (Juncus pelocarpus), beak-rushes (Rhynchospora capitellata and R. fusca), bulrushes (Schoenoplectus purshianus and S. smithii), and Torrey's bulrush (S. torreyi, state special concern). In the saturated soil further from the shore, where the seasonal water levels typically reach their peak, is a dense graminoid-dominated zone. This is the most floristically diverse zone and typically includes species such as bluejoint grass (Calamagrostis canadensis), narrow-leaved reedgrass (C. stricta), few-seed sedge (Carex oligosperma), wiregrass sedge (C. lasiocarpa), twig-rush (Cladium mariscoides), three-way sedge (Dulichium arundinaceum), grass-leaved goldenrod (Euthamia graminifolia), wild blue flag (Iris versicolor), swamp candles (Lysimachia terrestris), ticklegrass (Agrostis scabra), and panic grass (Dichanthelium lindheimeri). Many intermittent wetlands contain a bog mat with vegetation typical of an ombrotrophic bog. These bog mats are characterized by sphagnum mosses, and low, ericaceous shrubs, with leatherleaf (Chamaedaphne calyculata) being the most prevalent. These bog mats are typically very low in herbaceous plant diversity. Trees within intermittent wetlands are typically absent or occur on the bog mat. Trees occurring on bog mats within the community are usually widely scattered and stunted conifers such as black spruce (Picea mariana) and tamarack (Larix laricina), and occasionally jack pine (Pinus banksiana) and white pine (P. strobus).
Beaver (Castor canadensis) and muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) can profoundly influence the hydrology of intermittent wetlands. Muskrats create open water channels through peat, and beavers can cause substantial flooding through their dam-building activities.
Protection of the regional and local hydrologic regime is critical to the preservation of intermittent wetlands. Stabilization of water levels can allow for the establishment of perennials and woody species, which can displace less competitive annuals. Increased surface flow and alteration of groundwater recharge can be prevented by avoiding road construction and complete canopy removal in adjacent stands. A serious threat to intermittent wetland hydrology and species diversity is posed by off-road vehicle (ORV) traffic, which can significantly alter the hydrology through rutting and erosion. Soil erosion resulting from ORV use within the wetland or surrounding uplands may greatly disturb the seed bank, reducing plant density and diversity. Reduction of access to wetland systems will help decrease detrimental impacts from ORVs.
Where shrub and tree encroachment threatens to convert open wetlands to shrub-dominated systems or forested swamps, prescribed fire can be employed to maintain open conditions. Prescribed fires are best employed in intermittent wetlands during droughts or in the late summer and fall when water levels are lowest. In addition to controlling woody invasion, fire promotes seed bank expression and rejuvenation and thus helps maintain species diversity. Intermittent wetlands are common natural features within a variety of droughty, fire-dependent, upland pine and oak matrix communities and would likely have experienced surface fires along with the surrounding uplands when conditions were favorable. When feasible, prescribed fires conducted in the adjacent uplands should be allowed to carry into intermittent wetlands.
Monitoring and control efforts to detect and remove invasive species are critical to the long-term viability of intermittent wetland. Invasive species that threaten the diversity and community structure of intermittent wetlands include reed (Phragmites australis subsp. australis), reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea), narrow-leaved cat-tail (Typha angustifolia), hybrid cat-tail (Typha xglauca), purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria), glossy buckthorn (Frangula alnus), and multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora).
Species composition of intermittent wetlands varies depending on fluctuating water levels and fire disturbance.
Bog, coastal plain marsh, emergent marsh, northern fen, northern wet meadow, and poor fen.

Think back to when you were in school and studied basic physics. Or, if you never did, here's a free physics lesson. There's a principle related to Newton's laws of motion called inertia. Inertia is an object's tendency to resist changes in motion. So, if something isn't moving, it's going to resist being moved. On the other hand, if something IS moving, it's going to resist stopping.
Avatar teaches this principle to truck drivers when we talk about load securement. Let's say you set a watermelon on the bed of your truck. No tie downs, straps, or anything to keep it from moving around. If the truck is moving at 65 miles per hour, so is the watermelon. And, because of inertia, the watermelon won't stop just because the truck stops. It will resist stopping. So, what happens if you stop suddenly? The watermelon will go flying forward and splatter against the back of the truck cab. If you properly secure it to the truck bed, though, it will stop when the truck stops.
In case you didn't know, the same goes for you in the car. When you're driving, you're traveling at the same speed as your vehicle. When your vehicle stops, you need to stop with it. Think of your seat belt as the securement and yourself as the cargo. Your seat belt stops you from continuing to move when your vehicle stops.
Sure, if you apply the brakes and stop gradually, you'll slow down just like your vehicle, with or without your seat belt. But that's assuming you plan to stop. What if the unexpected happens? What if you have an accident? If that's the case, your vehicle will stop but you won't. The crash could eject you from the vehicle, and unless you wear a helmet and protective gear while you drive, that spells trouble for you.
I joke only because I'm baffled that people don't wear seat belts. About 85 to 90% of drivers wear their seat belts. That's obviously a ton of people, but I still wonder about that small chunk that don't. Pardon my bluntness, but if you're in that category, what the $#*^ is wrong with you?
Some people will inevitably argue against seat belts to the bitter end (which is statistically sooner for them than the rest of us). They'll say it's uncomfortable, or it's not necessary for short car rides, or they're just such a good driver they wouldn't dare to have an accident. Debunking these is so easy, it's almost not worthwhile, but for prosperity's sake, let's go for it.
Neither is being flung from your car at 30 miles per hour. And it certainly wouldn't be comfortable for the person who has to live with the fact they killed you.
It only takes one second for a car accident to happen. Therefore, any trip that's longer than the time it takes to move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator warrants the use of a seat belt.
This is my favorite. You're "don't have accidents," huh? In case you didn't know, the nature of accidents is that you don't plan to have them. I hate to use a cliché, but expect the unexpected.
Sorry for all the snark, but if you don't wear a seat belt, there are 9-year-old kids with more foresight than you. Please, buckle-up.
