I know these look nothing like me but I kept seeing them in the commercial and I had to try them. It's good to think outside your box every now and then.
So Less, is this going to be your new day at the beach cabana boy shoes?
two drinks for Less & I. And hurry darling, we have a 7:00 personal fitting with christian Louboutin.
I want to know where are you going to wear these and with what? Cool colors but I just don't see you in them. Michelle definitely, but you not so much.
Let's see, of course we will need a cabana boy or two. Maybe we can all descend upon Michelle in Hawaii, they have to have a few there.
And you can still shop DSW online Michelle, I found out if you're a premiere member they ship to you next day for free. This works for Me because I can return them at the store, but you could always mail them back.
And Bliss I will be wearing the out with the girls shopping this coming weekend. I have a shirt with the plum color in it and I'm thinking capris.
Oh and they look better tied to the outside.

"Israel Doesn't Have to Choose Sides in the Hegemony War Between the U.S. and China"
Infinity Group's Amir Gal-Or offers tips on how to stay on the fence when superpowers collide
Naomi Zoreff 18:0925.05.20
U.S.-China Trade War
"Saying that we must choose sides between the U.S. and China is irresponsible," Amir Gal-Or, managing partner of Infinity Group, an Israeli-Chinese venture capital fund that invests in companies in both countries, told Calcalist reporter Meir Orbach during an interview at Calcalist and Psagot's Conference Call online event. "We need to make adjustments and pay attention to American sensitivities to things like defense or infrastructure projects but, in most cases, it is not about choosing sides," Gal-Or said.
Asked how China is now coping with the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, Gal-Or said that it feels like the worst is behind them. "The Chinese government plans to return to routine as fully as possible given the decrease in production demand, the limitations on global travel, and the hegemony war," Gal-Or said. "Our activity in China has resumed completely, we've started closing deals and making investments. They don't have that process that we're going through in Israel nowadays, where things are moving slowly. There is a general instruction to follow up and complete all prior obligations, money is coming in on a case by case basis, according to where it is needed, but everyone is aware of the fact that global demand is down, that there are problems with the U.S., and that the market will be impacted by it."

It feels like Israel is caught in the middle between China and the U.S. is it Israel or is the whole world in this predicament?
"Israel is not alone and it is not a decision that the government must make. Apple, on the one hand and the British government, on the other, are facing dilemmas as we speak. Apple is an American company with a massive market in China, its factories are there and it cannot be forced to choose one of the sides exclusively. It needs to find solutions and there is no question adjustments have to be made," Gal-Or said. "Asian and European countries are in the same boat. The U.K. is in intensive talks with the U.S. on the 5G network. Everyone is under immense pressure to reduce their dependence on China. Israel, as a U.S. ally, is too."
Will tech companies back off or continue seeking investors from China?
"Tech companies need to look at China as a player that is not going anywhere and has an immense impact on their target market regardless of the results of the hegemony wars between the two superpowers," Gal-Or advised. "The situation still provides valuable opportunities. Chinese industries are better at some things than those in the West and Tech companies can work with them in third-country markets. In some cases, Chinese companies may be happy to work with Israeli companies as subcontractors rather than as upfront partners. Companies can create parallel brands for the Chinese markets or split the company in two, or play around with ownership. Solutions do exist."

Garnering accolades at festivals across North America, Matthew Johnson's The Dirties tackles the now unfortunately trendy topic of bullying. The film attempts to shed a non-judgmental light on what drives the bullied to their breaking point, pushing them into the territory of infamous mass murderers. What Johnson's managed to create is a relatable portrayal of high school kids being high school kids. That is, until they aren't.
The film addresses one of the more difficult aspects of bullying in a way that might cause some backlash: the impotence of teaching staff. Ultimately, teachers can't really do much when it comes to bullying. Much of the time they don't see it, as kids are very careful about getting caught. Worse still, kids are reluctant to come forward, for fear of making their torment worse. Getting a teacher involved will ensure that more often than not.
With a series of real interviews starting the film, teachers from local Toronto high schools were asked what they would encourage a student to do if they were a victim of bullying. The answers are textbook, generally urging students to seek solace and support from teaching staff. A teacher in his daily life, Williams sheds some light on the subject. "We talk a lot in schools about how we all know that bullying is a problem, and we all know that kids pick on each other, and everybody has a responsibility to do something about it.
"And yet," he continues, "as a teacher, I don't see it, ever. Two or three times I've addressed overt kids being mean to one another. As a teacher I do find that troubling, because, anything to do with a movie and art aside, I know that there are kids who are unhappy, and I wish I could help.
"We have an awareness of it," Williams continues, "but we haven't figured out how to fix it. We're just calling it names. And the goal in this film is partly to show that just labeling the problem and not doing anything about it does nothing.
"Part of what [The Dirties] is trying to do is flip things on its head. The people who committed the shooting are shown as the victims, and the idea that there is that victim and victimizer – it's not so easy to see the difference between the two. And just trying to identify who's guilty doesn't actually fix what's occurring.


Grayson loves to try to feed himself! But boy, oh, boy is it MESSY!!! But hey, he has fun, and that's all that matters, right?! I especially love the giant glob of mushy cracker/apple sauce stuck on the end of his nose! Haha! I love this little guy!
He is so cute. It's always easier to clean up the mess when they look cute making it!!
Hmmm, stay home with a messy (but hilarious) baby or work? It's always good to be balanced, but I don't really have any experience in the baby thing. . . but he is handsome!
He is so adorable. Way to let loose and let him have fun exploring his new world.
oh my gosh sam he is so adorable! you gotta love those eyes!

Q: How can I customize a permission request popup for push notifications in a browser? I see that some websites have a fancy push notification permission request popups like this one

whereas official API documentation doesn't provide any clue how to customize permission requests; and the only request I can generate looks like that

How can I create a less ugly popup?

A: Click the Allow button on the House of Bots site and you'll see exactly how they do it--they don't.
The pop-up you see is just plain html, nothing special. When you click allow, it opens a new window that asks for permission, and then you get the typical browser window just like in your second image.

Nerve Renew Review: Does This Neuropathy Support Supplement Actually Help Relieve Nerve Pain?
The Neuropathy Treatment Group was formed in 2011 in Idaho by former neuropathy sufferer Wes Jones. He started the company with a mission to provide lasting relief for people with nerve pain. Since then, they have attracted over 100,000 customers in dozens of countries. The company has an A- rating on the Better Business Bureau which is a statement to its reputation.
Overall, the company has good online reputation with plenty of positive reviews on third party websites, as well as customers leaving reviews on social media and email. They have over 75,000 Likes on Facebook and have been featured in large online publications such as Rodale Organic Life.
In other words, they are an established company that has been around for a while, and will likely be here serving their customers and changing lives for years to come.
The supplement Nerve Renew has been advertised as the best supplement for nerve pain, and this begs the question whether it is legit or a scam. In this article, we explore the unbiased opinions on the leading clinical studies experts on the subject and leave the decision to you.
While there are certainly benefits of taking this supplement, there are also some considerations you need to keep at the back of your mind. As it turns out they may not be exactly the miracle, you need to eliminate your condition. However, if you have your facts straight, you will be in a position to smoke out lies and facts from misconceptions in a bid to demystify this product.
Understanding the problem is the first step in discovering the solution.
Medical professionals do not fully understand the source of pain caused by diabetic neuropathy. It's difficult to see exactly what happens in the body which causes the symptoms. Years of research and study have yielded the conclusion that when blood glucose levels are out of control, the condition appears.
A study conducted in 1993 in The New England Journal of Medicine led researchers to conclude that controlling blood glucose levels can relieve the pain associated with neuropathy. Because of this, some doctors prescribe insulin therapy to manage the condition.
Even though doctors discovered this knowledge, they still don't fully understand the connection between blood glucose levels and nerve pain. All they know as of know, is that elevated levels of glucose can damage nerve connections. The problem is, it doesn't happen in all cases of diabetes. Only 70% of people with diabetes have high blood glucose levels throughout the duration of their condition.
Doctors concluded there has to be more factors that contribute to the symptoms of neuropathy in addition to blood glucose levels. This is why neuropathy is so difficult to understand or cure. The condition is a combination of conditions that work synergistically to damage the nervous system and cause nerve pain.
Here is a list of the all natural ingredients in Nerve Renew.
R-ALA is a water soluble antioxidant. It acts very fast to help improve cell wall transporters in the body. ALA is known as a super-antioxidant because of its unique ability to regenerate itself and other vitamins, such as B1 and B12.
Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble form of vitamin B1. The body is able to absorb it easier than other B vitamins, which helps it get inside the tissues. The website Neuropathy Help talks more about how this ingredient in Nerve Renew works.
Necessary for the proper function of the nervous system. A deficiency in B-12 can cause neuropathy due to its important role in the production of healthy blood cells.
A blend of herbs and vitamins help amplify the effectiveness of all the ingredients.
Some of these herbs include, FeverFew, Skullcap, Passion Flower, and Oat Straw Extract. The herbs have been proven to reduce inflammation, calm the nervous system, and improve nerve health.
The supplement has all natural ingredients. The supplement was created by The Neuropathy Treatment Group with the former name Neuropathy Support Formula. It was later renamed to Nerve Renew with the same ingredients in the original formulation. To date, they have sold over 100,000 bottles and have received great feedback from customers who were able to reduce their pain and symptoms.
Although many of the tests on the ingredients in this product were done using injectable forms of the vitamins, Nerve Renew uses the form of ingredient with the highest bioavailability in an oral suspension. You can read more about this on NervePainRemedies.com.
This presents some benefits in absorption into the blood. What this means is that less of the ingredient is needed to get similar results as compared to other supplements on the market. Also, because the ingredients are of the purest quality, your body is able to use them more effectively, which can results in faster nerve pain relief and regeneration.
The Neuropathy Treatment Group offers a 365 day no questions asked money back guarantee if you aren't happy for any reason. They have excellent support through phone and email if you have any questions.
It's not the cheapest supplement out there, but that's the price for quality.
Neuropathy Support Formula does not have any serious side effects. The NTG tested the formula even at higher than recommended dosages, and it was safe. At regular dosage, one will not experience any interactions with medications or unwanted side effects. The only concerns to be aware of are using the supplement while pregnant because it contains the herb Skullcap.
The formula has been tested and shown to be safe to take for healthy adults. There have been studies conducted with high doses of B vitamins which were safe in medical terms, and this supplement has much lower doses than what was used in those studies.
So far, no serious complaints of Nerve Renew have come to light. This is probably because the supplement is actually effective.
There are few complaints about the Neuropathy Support Formula. Although there were a few customers who reported not experiencing any results. This is a rare case and most customers experience some kind of relief within 1-2 months of consuming the supplement as directed.
Another complaint is the subscription billing, however this is optional. Customers can choose to receive a discounted price for signing up for a subscription, or they can pay full price for 1 bottle at a time.
Is Nerve Renew A Scam or Legitimate Solution?
Overall, the claims made by the Neuropathy Treatment Group about the supplement are factual. The supplement has been used by over 70,000 customers worldwide and thousands have left positive reviews both online across numerous websites, as well as on their Facebook page.
Nerve Renew can only be purchased through the official Neuropathy Treatment Group website. Listings on other websites such as Amazon, GNC, Walgreens or even Walmart are likely to be counterfeit and should be avoided. Every bottle comes with 60 pills.
A single bottle of Nerve Renew costs $63, however you can save by enrolling in their preferred customer program. The Neuropathy Treatment Group also offers a free trial for $6.95 shipping and handling, which enrolls you into their savings program only paying $43 per bottle. Each bottle contains 60 capsules, which is a full-month supply at the recommended dosage. They are vegetarian and made from gelatin capsules.

Podcast: Alternative Oscars Episode 5 – 1953
http://media.blubrry.com/tawfikzonealtoscars/p/content.blubrry.com/tawfikzonealtoscars/Alt_Oscars_1953_Tawfik_Zone.mp3
It's been a long gap between episodes. My fault entirely. I'm thrilled to unleash our 5th episode of The Alternative Oscars Podcast. This episode, we discuss movies of 1953. We dish our thoughts on the five films nominated that year and then offer our nominees of films eligible in 1953 that we think are better.
What did you think about the Best Picture nominees? Or our nominees and winners? What would be your picks for 1953?

Alternative Oscars In-Depth: Neville Brand, Jack Elam, Lee Van Cleef
http://media.blubrry.com/tawfikzonealtoscars/p/content.blubrry.com/tawfikzonealtoscars/Alt_Oscars_Special_Neville_Brand_Jack_Elam_Lee_Van_Cleef.mp3
Right before the Tawfik Zone was out of commission for quite a while, due to a series of minor technical difficulties and my own hectic schedule, my dymanic duo Tia Nikolopulas and Tawfik Zone contributor Candace Wiggins recorded a couple of Alternative Oscars podcasts. (You can check out 1950, 1951, and 1952).
The opening jingle was composed by Incompitech genius Kevin McLeod.
This one is the first of what we hope will be a regular part of the podcast, an in-depth look at people or things related to the Alternative Oscars. In this episode we discuss character actors, all of whom got their start in the 1950s; the iconic Lee Van Cleef, the beloved Jack Elam, and the now-underrated Neville Brand.
If you find our other podcasts too long, you'll be happy to know that this and future in-depth episodes is about 45 minutes. If you like our longer, stream-of-conscious Alternative Oscars episodes, don't worry, we're still going to do them. Alternating between these two types of episodes, we hope to provide content on a regular, monthly basis.
We hope you enjoy our In-Depth episode. If you have any questions or constructive feedback gives us a shout out. We'd like to hear from you.

Obit: Gloria DeHaven (1925-2016)
About 15 years after the launching the highly innovative and spellbinding moving picture, the scrappy moguls realized that the future of their industry depended on more than the novel technology itself. After reading several fan letters inquiring about the people in the movies (who were then uncredited), they came up with the ingenious idea of grooming movie stars for public consumption (we all know how well that worked out).
Gloria DeHaven, far left on the 2nd row from bottom. Courtesy of handkerchiefheroes.com
The star machine had its heyday in the 1930s and 1940s during the Golden Age of Hollywood. One of the best practitioners of this method was MGM, whose endearingly corny but apt studio mantra was a place where there were "more stars than in heaven." MGM, specializing in gorgeously gauche fare, was a perfect fit for the crude and synthetic star system.
One of its starlets, Gloria DeHaven who died from a stroke July 31st, has been a favorite of mine since childhood. Born to vaudevillian parents Carter and Flora Parker DeHaven, Gloria began her career early, making her screen debut as an extra in Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times (1936).
From the get go, this fresh-faced glamorous brunette (sometimes blonde) exhibited confidence and glamour and made a good impression in small supporting roles, best of which was Best Foot Forward (1943). She more than held her own against the large and vibrant cast, as a feisty co-ed who instigates antagonism towards publicity-hungry actress Lucille Ball, who opportunistically accepts a prom date from a young cadet. This film marked the first pairing between DeHaven and June Allyson who along with Nancy Walker vibrantly delivered the show stopping musical number "The Barrelhouse, The Boogie Woogie, and The Blues."
Courtesy of in.pinterest.com
DeHaven and Allyson had such great chemistry that the next year, they got their first leading roles as plucky singing sisters in the charming morale boosting WWII musical Two Girls and A Sailor. As two singing sisters who gently spar for the affections of a boyish sailor played by Van Johnson, DeHaven's sexiness and poise as the slightly impulsive sister who attracts the men perfectly complements Allyson's warm, maternal, though slightly homely sister. Musically, DeHaven's smooth, clear mezzo and Allyson's raspy alto are in sync. In the end, audiences gravitated more towards the cuter, All-American Allyson and Johnson who starred in several subsequent films together, thus ending the Allyson DeHaven duo. (Off-screen, the two women remained best of friends).
With that, DeHaven was relegated back to supporting roles, as mostly kid sisters or secondary ingénues. She always brought an effortless, personable, slightly naughty but nice quality that deftly eschewed cloying sappiness. Her charm and vivacity sparkled even if the film didn't. She easily outshone the negligible song and dance man, George Murphy, mediocre songstress Ginny Simms, and antiquated ex-Vaudevillian fuddy duddy Charles Winninger in the clunky Broadway Rhythm (1944).
DeHaven had a couple of major career setbacks in the mid-40s. First, she was suspended for refusing a role in Good News. Her next assignment, Summer Holiday, a strange but interesting (though not entirely successful) musical adaptation of Eugene O'Neill's play Ah Wilderness, was a highly troubled production that sat on the shelf for two years, and flopped miserably when finally released. Collectively, this kept her off screen for three years.
While many of her peers utterly resented Dore Schary replacing an acrimoniously ousted Louis B. Mayer as head of production at Metro, DeHaven appreciated the chance to play against type in grittier roles under the new executive's auspices. She gives a potently poignant performance as the black sheep of a cold, elitist family who has a pregnancy out of wedlock (and naturally a tragic outcome) in the broody melodrama The Doctor and the Girl. In the nifty, cynical little film noir, Scene of the Crime, a bottled blonde DeHaven is effective as a quasi femme fatale who strips in a skeevy nightclub and cavorts with riff raff.
Although both films turned a profit and received decent reviews, DeHaven went back to lighter fare, playing Judy Garland's slightly self-centered sister in the bizarre farm-set musical Summer Stock and Red Skelton's love interest in The Yellow Cab Man. Shortly after, she left MGM and freelanced, where the quality of the material declined.
Courtesy of www.cbsnews.com
While no longer an A-lister, DeHaven worked steadily on television, Broadway, and nightclubs until the 1990s. She continued to display her versatility in a variety of excellent performances ranging from a shady old-flame who embroils private detective Mannix in a murder case to an assertive travel agent friend of Jessica Fletcher in a recurring role on Murder, She Wrote. In one of the best episodes of the series, DeHaven, engages in several delightful catfights with several grande dames of the studio-era Julie Adams, Kathryn Grayson, and Ruth Roman, all of whom had dalliances with a town handyman whose shrewish wife was recently murdered.
Like several of the classic stars, DeHaven was approached a few times to write an autobiography, but the deal always fell through because she refused to write a "tell-all" account of her Hollywood days. Instead, in public appearances, DeHaven emphasized the positive aspects of being part of the "Metro family" (though she found some of the sillier aspects of the censorious Hays Code disagreeable). While she didn't have the widespread fame as some of her peers (I would say she was sorely underrated), Gloria DeHaven has made a lasting impression on movie-loving folks like me.

Marine Medic Tammi: Protecting her family
by Ioanna Ata | Jan 9, 2017 | Story | 0 comments
Tammi is a combat medic in the U.S. Marine Corps. She has a 2-year old boy, Erin, and a husband, Jake, who is also in the Marine Corps. Because either she or her husband could be called up at any time, she knows it's critical that her family, including her parents, have an organized, central access point for all the information they would need if something happened to her such as her bill pay service, her insurance, what to do with her social media accounts, location of the titles to their cars, how to collect her military funeral benefits and honors, and so many other things. She'd also like a place to keep all the digital keepsakes for her son as he grows up: photos, messages, savings accounts.
AfterVault is the solution to Tammi's situation. It's a secure, encrypted online vault for organizing and storing your vital information that also assures your information is delivered to those who need it.
To get a good idea of how AfterVault is used, let's follow our Marine medic, Tammi, as she creates a vault for her husband, Jake.
After Tami logs in to AfterVault, she sees her dashboard.
There are three sections on her dashboard: Alert Rules, Your Vaults, and Guardian Vaults.
Alert Rules are where she will tell AfterVault how to check on her wellness in order to determine when to send an email to her parents or husband. We'll talk about this more later.
Your Vaults allows Tammi to create a new vault. If she already had vaults, they would show as a list in this section.
Guardian Vaults is where she can view the list of vaults for which she is a guardian. In Tammi's case, we can see that someone has created a vault for Tammi and named it Tammi Open Vault. In this case, they have allowed her to view the contents. Her husband created this vault and assigned her to be the guardian.
Tammi is here to create a vault for her husband so she presses 'Create New Vault' then names the vault and enters her husband's email address.
After she presses 'Create', the main Vault screen appears. Now she can see all the categories AfterVault has supplied for her to organize her vital information. Today, Tammi is just going to fill out a few categories that are most important to her. Today Tammi will attach a will and also tell Jake what to do with her Facebook and Twitter accounts.
Tammi knows that her will is the most important piece of information Jake will need, so she starts there by clicking on the 'Will and Testament' tab on the far left of the screen. She is presented with an 'Add Will' button.
Tammi presses the 'Add Will' button, enters her lawyer's name and contact information and, because she has a soft copy of the will on her PC, she uploads it into AfterVault.
After pressing 'Save', she sees a new line added to the Will and Testament section of her vault. She can continue to add more lines if she has more wills or documents to add for this category.
But now Tammi would like to add her social media information so she finds the social media tab and presses it to see this:
After Tammi has added both Facebook and Twitter, she sees two lines, one for each social media site, in her Social Media vault section.
That's all Tammi wants to enter for now but there are a couple more things she really needs to do in order to make her vault useful. On the Vault Essentials screen, she has specified who is to get this information. Her husband. That's not quite enough. So far, he doesn't know that she's made a vault for him and he can't see anything she has put in the vault. She takes another look at the Vault Essentials screen.
Under her Guardian information, she sees two buttons. One button will send an invitation to her selected guardian, Jake. Tammi presses 'Send Invitation' and off goes an email to Jake telling him that Tammi has created a vault for him and inviting him to create his own completely free account so that he can access that vault when the time is right.
Tammi's vault will not be visible to Jake unless one of two things happen:
She presses the 'Reveal to guardian' button.
She fails to respond to her Alert Rules. We'll talk about this in a moment.
In this case, there is nothing in this vault Tammi wants kept secret until after her death so she presses the 'Reveal to Guardian' button so Jake can immediately view everything she has put into this particular vault. Tammi might well create a second vault and call it 'Jake Closed Vault' and although Jake will know this vault has been created for him he will not be able to see the contents until Tammi fails to respond to her Alert Rules.
Once Tammi has pressed these two buttons, the screen looks like this:
Notice that by pressing the 'Hide from guardian' button, Tammi can turn off Jake's access to this vault.
Now let's talk about Alert Rules. Alert Rules are a feature unique to AfterVault. They are not for everyone but for many of our customers they are the feature they most love about AfterVault.
Alert Rules are a way for AfterVault to determine if you are no longer able to take care of your own affairs whether through death or through severe incapacitation. How do we do that? We send you a customized protocol of emails and text messages that request that you respond either though a text message reply or by clicking a confirmation link. You determine what kind of message is sent when. If you fail to respond to three of these wellness 'pings', we will contact your guardian to see if something has happened to you.
Here's the screen where you set up your Alert Rules.
First Tammi notices that she'll need to verify her phone number before she can use text message. She presses 'Verify Phone Number' and follows the simple instructions asking her to type in the code sent to her as a text message. Now she can use text messages.
For Tammi, she checks her email often often that she doesn't mind being checked on every couple of days so she sets here regular check-in to 2 days and keeps it as an email check. But if she doesn't respond to her regular check-in, she wants her first fail-safe to be a text message sent to her a day after she failed to respond to the email. And then one more a day later and finally she'd like AfterVault to wait a single day before asking her guardian about her wellness and allowing access to that vault.
When she's done, her Alert Rules screen looks like this.
Now Tammi has one more thing to do before she is done. She must turn on her Alert Rules or they will not be active for her account. She goes back to her Dashboard by pressing the 'Dashboard' button and there in the Alert Rules section, she switches on the
And now Tammi's will and social media is taken care of. She has more work to do to be sure all the information gets to the right people. She'll be adding her insurance, bill pay, and health directives to Jake's open vault. But she'll also create a new vault for Jake that won't open for him unless something happens to Tammi. She'll put a message for him in the Vault Essentials screen. She also has some photos she thinks will have meaning for him and that she would like as part of her memorial. These are things she'd rather keep private until a time when they would be more meaningful.
She'll also make a closed vault for her two-year old son, Erin. To start with, she'll just put photos in that vault but as time goes by she hopes to add more things that will be useful or have sentimental value for Erin when, hopefully many years from now, Tammi is no longer with him.

Gura Vedei – Șaica – Slobozia este un sit de importanță comunitară (SCI) desemnat în scopul protejării biodiversității și menținerii într-o stare de conservare favorabilă a florei spontane și faunei sălbatice, precum și a habitatelor naturale de interes comunitar aflate în arealul zonei protejate. Acesta este situat în sudul României, pe teritoriile administrative ale județelor Călărași, Giurgiu și Teleorman.

Localizare
Aria naturală se află în extremitatea sudică a județului Giurgiu , cea sud-vestică a județului Călărași și cea sud-estică a județului Teleorman (în Lunca Dunării), în imediata apropiere de drumul național DN5C, care leagă municipiul  Giurgiu de orașul Zimnicea.

Descriere
Zona a fost declarată sit de importanță comunitară prin Ordinul Ministerului Mediului și Dezvoltării Durabile Nr.1964 din 13 decembrie 2007 (privind instituirea regimului de arie naturală protejată a siturilor de importanță comunitară, ca parte integrantă a rețelei ecologice europene Natura 2000 în România) și se întinde pe o suprafață de 9.514 hectare.

Aria protejată (încadrată în bioregiune geografică continentală) reprezintă o zonă naturală (râuri, plaje cu nisip, lacuri, mlaștini, turbării, pajiști, terenuri arabile, păduri de foioase) cu rol de protecție și conservare a două tipuri de habitate de interes comunitar: Zavoaie cu Salix alba si Populus alba și Paduri ripariene mixte cu Quercus robur, Ulmus laevis, Fraxinus excelsior sau Fraxinus angustifolia, din lungul marilor râuri). Situl asigură condiții de hrană și viețuire pentru mai multe specii de mamifere, reptile, amfibieni și pești (unele protejate prin lege).

Biodiversitate
În arealul sitului vegetează arbori cu specii de: stejar (Quercus robur), velniș (Ulmus laevis), frasin (din speciile Fraxinus excelsior și Fraxinus augustifolia), plop alb (Populus alba) și salcie (Salix alba).

Fauna sitului este constituită din mamifere cu specii (multe aflate pe lista roșie a IUCN) de:
 vidră (Lutra lutra), popândău (Spermophilus citellus), liliacul cu aripi lungi (Miniopterus schreibersii), liliacul comun (Myotis myotis), liliacul cărămiziu (Myotis emarginatus), liliacul cu potcoavă (Rhinolophus mehelyi), liliacul mic cu potcoavă (Rhinolophus hipposideros); reptile și amfibieni (țestoasa de baltă din specia Emys orbicularis și buhaiul de baltă cu burta roșie - Bombina bombina, specie considerată ca vulnerabilă și aflată pe lista roșie a IUCN) și pești cu specii de: avat (Aspius aspius), svârlugă (Cobitis taenia), porcușor-de-nisip (Gobio albipinnatus), răspăr (Gymnocephalus schraetzer), țipar (Misgurnus fossilis),  boarța, (Rhodeus sericeus amarus), dunăriță (Sabanejewia aurata), fusar (Zingel streber), ghiborț de râu (Gymnocephalus baloni) sau scrumbia de Dunăre (Alosa immaculata)..

În arealul sitului este semnalată prezența unei comunități de scoici cu indivizi din specia Unio crassus (scoică-mică-de-râu), specie cu risc ridicat de dispariție în sălbăticie,  aflată pe lista roșie a IUCN.

The Role of Expectancies in the Size-Weight Illusion: A Review of Theoretical and Empirical Arguments and a New Explanation
By Dijker, Anton J. M.
© Psychonomic Society, Inc. 2014
Abstract The size-weight illusion (SWI) refers to the phenomenon that objects that are objectively equal in weight but different in size or volume are perceived to differ in weight, such that smaller objects feel heavier than larger ones. This article reviews studies trying to support three different viewpoints with respect to the role of expectancies in causing the SWI. The first viewpoint argues for a crucial role; the second admits a role, yet without seeing consequences for sensorimotor processes; and the third denies any causal role for expectancies at all. A new explanation of the SWI is proposed that can integrate the different arguments. A distinctive feature of the new explanation is that it recognizes the causal influence of expectancies, yet combines this with certain reactive and direct behavioral consequences of perceiving size differences that are independent of experience-based expectancies, and that normally result in the adaptive application of forces to liftor handle differently sized objects. The new account explains why the illusion is associated with the repeated generation of inappropriate lifting forces (which can, however, be modified through extensive training), as well as why it depends on continuous visual exposure to size cues, appears at an early age, and is cognitively impenetrable.
Keywords Perceptual illusions . Size-weight illusion . Internal representation . Evolution
The size-weight illusion (SWI) refers to the phenomenon that objects that are objectively equal in weight but different in size or volume are perceived to differ in weight, such that smaller objects feel heavier than larger ones. The most compelling way to demonstrate the SWI is to first let research participants liftequal-weight but differently sized objects blindly and in the same manner via an attached handle or string (so that size cannot be haptically determined) and to establish that no differences in weight are perceived. When, during visual exposure to size differences, objects are again lifted and size appears to negatively influence perceived weight (see, e.g., Ellis & Lederman, 1993), we must assume that perceived size rather than some other difference between the stimulus objects (e.g., differences in mass distribution) was causally responsible for the illusion. That the illusion strongly depends on visual exposure to size cues is suggested by the tendency of perceivers to avoid looking at hand-held objects when trying to accurately determine weight differences (Ross, 1969). Note, however, that the illusion also occurs when information about size is obtained entirely haptically (Ellis & Lederman, 1993).
Although the illusion has attracted research attention since the 19th century (for reviews, see Amazeen & Turvey, 1996; Murray, Ellis, Bandomir, & Ross, 1999; Nicolas, Ross, & Murray, 2012), researchers continue to disagree about its explanation. A dominant explanation for the SWI is that it is based on a general expectancy, derived from previous experience, that larger objects are heavier than smaller ones of similar material, and that this expectancy is violated when differently sized objects of equal physical weights are lifted or supported. This unexpectedness, or "contrast," with the initial expectancy is what determines perceivers' incorrect weight judgments.
At phenomenological and verbal levels, the role of expectancies and expectancy violation in illusory weight perception is strongly supported. For example, Dijker (2008) measured perceived size, perceived weight, and expected weight in separate groups of participants and found that, in terms of variation between objects, the effect of perceived size on the perceived weight of equal-weight objects was completely mediated by expected weight. Furthermore, in many early studies of the SWI (e.g., Davis, 1973; Koseleff, 1957; Usnadze, 1931), it was mentioned that participants reported being surprised that the small object felt relatively heavy and the large one relatively light. …

Focus on diversity, daily Mass brings Pontiac parish together
By Karla Dorweiler
Mar 8, 2017 Local

PONTIAC — When Fr. James Kean attended the Amazing Parish Conference last April, he knew the ideas presented wouldn't be "one size fits all.
" Still, he approached the conference with an eagerness to learn and a willingness to adapt ideas.
Fr. Kean's parish, St. Damien of Molokai in Pontiac, is a bilingual community with a small staff relative to other suburban parishes. St. Damien utilizes two different sites, St. Michael and St. Vincent de Paul, for Masses and activities each week.
"Amazing Parish came to us at the right time to help us take stock of how we're doing things, how we could do them more effectively, and if we should be doing more," Fr. Kean said.
Parishioner Denise Morgan volunteers in a variety of areas at St. Damien and attended the conference with Fr. Kean.
"For some of the ideas they talked about, I honestly thought we just didn't have enough people or the kind of circumstances to make it happen," Morgan said. "But we were inspired to go back and do what works for our own parish and our own situation.
"To begin, Morgan and the other members of the leadership team worked with Fr. Kean to redefine the parish mission statement to reflect more clearly the diversity of the community. The new mission statement is prominently posted on the home page of the parish website: "We at St. Damien of Molokai are a vibrant parish lived out in a multi-cultural experience. Following the example of our humble patron, we embrace the challenge to harmonize the diversity within our faith community in order to draw closer to the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
"St. Damien hosts bilingual Bible studies, Spanish as a second language classes, and an annual celebration for the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe in December. The parish offers three Spanish Masses each weekend and three English.
"We're blessed to be a bilingual community," Fr. Kean said. "The beauty of our parish is that we're still maintaining a vibrant English-speaking community as well. We can meet the needs of both as we continue to bring them together. "In addition to retooling the parish mission, the morning Mass time was moved 45 minutes earlier, to 8:15 a.m. The Mass is offered Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday mornings at the St. Michael site.
After the Mass, attendees are invited to stay for 10 minutes of silent prayer and then recite a prayer to the Holy Spirit together.
"We wanted the Mass to match the life of our office staff so that they could attend," Fr. Kean said. "We also wanted to focus on the spiritual life of our staff and parishioners by starting our day together focused on prayer.
"Morgan helps with setup for the morning Masses, making a point to greet people as they arrive and introduce herself to newcomers. She writes down prayer intentions of those who wish to share them.
"We're like a family, and we reach out to those who've never been to this Mass. There's a sense of community now that is noticeable," Morgan said. "We had someone from out of town join us, and he said he's never been to a daily Mass like this. We say hello to people. We give hugs. It totally changes your day to start it that way.
"As a result of the new approach, the parish has seen an increase in daily Mass attendance.
"A lot of people don't know how meaningful daily Mass can be," Morgan said. "It has been instrumental in increasing our prayer life as a parish.
"Fr. Kean and the leadership team continue to fine-tune aspects of the parish while remaining focused on the message of the Gospel.
"When you attend Amazing Parish, you have to be realistic about what you can do within the context of your own parish, but the beauty is that it gives us greater focus. It's been a good boost for us," Fr. Kean said. "For any of us who attended, it behooves us to ask ourselves, 'Are we going to let this be just another program? Or are we going to challenge ourselves to take stock and see it as an opportunity to do more?'"

Home news Four victims in California plane crash were family members
Four victims in California plane crash were family members
VISALIA, Calif. (AP) — Four people killed in the weekend crash of a small plane in central California have been identified as members of the same family, authorities said.
The single-engine Beechcraft Bonanza crashed in heavy fog evening shortly after takeoff from Visalia Municipal Airport, according to the Tulare County Sheriff's Office. Everyone on board died.
The victims were David Chelini, 78, his two daughters, Karen Baker, 46, and Donna Chelini, 48, along with his nephew, Steven Chelini, 58, the sheriff's office said.
Officials didn't say who was flying the plane but public records obtained by the Sacramento Bee indicate David Chelini, who lived adjacent to Sacramento Executive Airport, was the only pilot aboard. The plane was registered in his name. He obtained a private pilot's license in 2010, according to Federal Aviation Administration records.
Sheriff's Sgt. Jesse Cox told reporters it took first responders some time to locate the wreckage because of darkness and dense fog. Officials haven't said if weather was a factor in the crash.
Around four minutes elapsed between takeoff and the first 911 call, Cox said late Saturday.
The FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating.

Pakistan has no other way than raising the standard of its game if it has to force superpower India to resume bilateral cricketing ties, feels the new Pakistan Cricket Board dispensation.
India and Pakistan have not played a full bilateral series since 2007 due to the volatile political relations between the neighbouring countries. PCB has shown eagerness to resume cricketing relations but the Board of Control for Cricket in India has maintained that the Indian government calls the shots in this case.
"I think when [Pakistan become a top team] that happens, it can create a situation where India asks us to play a bilateral series," new PCB MD Wasim Khan said in a media interaction in Lahore.

Supreme Court Declines Review in Water "Takings" Case
Jun 22, 2020 | Klamath Alerts News, Klamath Falls Breaking News | 0
The United States Supreme Court has denied a petition requesting that it review a lower court decision that ruled Klamath Project irrigators were not entitled to compensation for the re-allocation of water under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in 2001. The one-sentence order in the case, named Baley v. United States, does not mean that the Supreme Court agreed or disagreed with the decision; rather, it means only that it declined to take up the case. The Court similarly denied review in over 75 cases today: https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/062220zor_mjn0.pdf
"The Court accepts review of a very small percentage of cases. Still, this development is very disappointing," said KWUA Executive Director Paul Simmons.
The case arose after the Bureau of Reclamation precluded water deliveries in order to maintain water elevations in Upper Klamath Lake for suckers species in Upper Klamath Lake that are ESA-listed as endangered and provide flows for coho salmon in the Klamath River. The plaintiffs in the case asserted that because water rights are property under state law, the federal government was required, under the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, to pay compensation for taking the rights.
The case, originally filed in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in the fall of 2001, has had an extremely long history, including previous appeals and the Oregon Supreme Court responding to a federal appellate court's request for clarification of Oregon water law. A trial took place in the Court of Federal Claims in 2017. Ultimately, last year, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit agreed with the trial court that the plaintiffs were not entitled to compensation because there existed senior, tribal rights for lake levels and flows in at least as great amounts as were required under the ESA. That logic meant that no property was actually taken, according to the trial court.
The petition for review to the Supreme Court – known as a petition for writ of certiori – focused on fundamental misunderstandings and misapplications of western water law by the federal courts, both of which are located in Washington, D.C. A multitude of public and private parties, including Oregon Water Resources Congress, Family Farm Alliance, National Water Resources Association, Association of California Water Agencies, American Farm Bureau Federation and several state Farm Bureaus, the counties of Klamath, Modoc, and Siskiyou through Pacific Legal Foundation, and others, filed briefs supporting that the the Court accept the case for review.
Mr. Simmons, whose firm became counsel for the plaintiffs after the decision by the court of appeals, said that although the odds of Supreme Court review are long, the plaintiffs believed it was appropriate to pursue the issue. "We thought we had a decent chance, but it did not go the way we wanted. There is no choice but to move on."
Mr. Simmons also said that, while the courts denied compensation for water being taken, there are still important issues related to how the ESA applies to the Klamath Project, particularly in light of other recent legal developments. "Going forward, we focus on having enough water, period. The Klamath Project is authorized for irrigation and should be operated for irrigation."
The Klamath Project was authorized in 1905 under the Reclamation Act of 1902. Project facilities divert and deliver water from Upper Klamath Lake and the Klamath River to approximately 175,000 acres straddling the Oregon – California border.

IBTC 2020: first edition
- The congress for cycling tourism professionals -
Speakers from the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France and the USA, took the opportunity during this first edition to make presentations using examples of progress, problems and solutions in cycling tourism. While the drinks reception afterwards provided the perfect opportunity for networking and exchange of personal experience.
Thursdag 27th February 2020
Jaarbeurs Utrecht
What are cycling tourists looking for? And how do you respond to that with good cycling routes? These questions dominated the first edition of the International Bicycling Tourism Conference, or IBTC for short, in the Jaarbeurs Utrecht. More than 60 professionals from the world of cycling tourism and the media attended the conference.
They were treated to a varied programme with no fewer than nine presentations by cycling tourism specialists from at home and abroad. The conference responded to a clear trend: the sustainability of cycling tourism is becoming ever more important, everywhere in Europe cycling routes are being developed. But do these actually meet the needs and wishes of the recreational holidaying cyclists?
Bumps and holes
Cycling journalist Bert Sitters showed examples, in quick-fire succession, of how things should not be done. Cycling paths that end in the middle of nowhere, with bumps and holes in the road surface, and sharp bends. Sitters, has encountered innumerable examples of these in his long career as a cycling journalist. It seems that not every cycle route developer is able to see things through the eyes of recreational cyclists.
Elise Pire (seated) with Jeroen Henneke of Tourism Wallonia (seated), Ed Lancaster (ECF) and anchor-woman Nikoline van der Werf
Fortunately there were also reviews of successful examples. Elise Pire of the Wallonia Region zoomed in on one of the long-distance cycling routes in Europe, the EuroVelo 3 (Trondheim-Santiago). The section in Belgium was realised in a short space of time partly because of good co-operation between governments and authorities. There is now a splendid route awaiting cycling tourists between the three-country point at Vaals and the French border, running for a large part on riverside paths alongside the Meuse and Sambre, taking you through cities like Liege, Namur and Charleroi.
Pia Zimmermann (Ruhr Tourismus)
There was also a great deal of attention for themed routes, which add an extra dimension to the experience and thereby have added value. A pearl amongst theme routes, is the 'Route der Industriekultur per Rad' or Bicycle Route through Industrial Heritage in the Ruhr area of Germany. Pia Zimmermann of Ruhr Tourism elucidated the development of the project, which benefited from good branding with its own website, promotional campaign, logo and clear, consistent signage on the route. During his presentation, Fabio Tat of VisitBrabant touched on the advantages of a route with a clear theme, such as the successful Van Gogh cycle route through the Brabant countryside.
Jeroen Stam (Tourisme Nord)
Anyone considering starting a cycle route project must be prepared to battle to achieve it, according to the accounts given by Jeroen Stam, a Dutchman who worked at 'Tourisme Nord' in France. He spent years trying to convince the French governments and tourism services that cycling tourism brings added value and generates extra income. With a great deal of stamina and persistence he eventually succeeded in realising the first French network with nodes, that link up to the Belgian network.
Bicycles on the train
Roland Huhn of the German cycling association ADFC also gave a striking example of intensive lobbying. For many years the association struggled to get more bicycle storage facilities in the Deutsche Bahn's trains. Up to and including peaceful 'guerrilla-actions'. Deutsche Bahn finally started to yield and more bicycle storage space is being introduced on trains. Ed Lancaster of the European Cyclists' Federation (ECF) brought that struggle into a more European perspective. The ECF has also been lobbying for years for more bicycle storage spaces in trains, a battle that is by no means over.
It was evident from virtually all of the presentations that co-operation between authorities and governments can play a decisive role in the successful development of projects for bicycles and cyclists. In 2021, there will be another edition of the IBTC prior to the Fiets en Wandelbeurs in Utrecht.

Michal Golan: Eardrops "Earthly Flower"


As parents we set goals for our children. Those goals can include academic goals, athletic goals, musical goals, behavioral goals, and relational goals. But the most important goals are the ones that pertain to God—spiritual goals. If the first set of goals I listed do not connect to pleasing God, then they only connect to man; and as a result, they fall short of the purpose of having the goals to begin with.
Sometimes I hear people say, "I did this for my child" or "This is for the children." If that is all the further it goes, then the purpose and perhaps the activity are off. What we do cannot ultimately be about our children, or about ourselves. What we do must be about God.
Therefore, what we set out for our children to become or to accomplish must honor the Lord and have His will or desires preeminent. The goals themselves must exalt God, align with Scripture, and in some way fulfill His will. If the goals do not connect to serving God in a greater way, then the goals, and perhaps the activities, need to change. It could be that you are doing a right activity with your child, but the ultimate purpose is not about God. This is not what God wants.
For instance, we could want our children to make good grades, get into a good college, and get a good job. But why? I am all for good grades, and college and getting a job are fine. But what is the point of it all? If it is not about God and glorifying Him, then it is really all a waste (cf. I Corinthians 3:11-15).
So you can ask yourself this question: "who or what are my goals about?" If the things we are doing and the reasons we are doing them go no further than man, then we are falling short of the aim God wants. If our actions and motives line up with Scripture, then what we do is for God.
