It was in 1972 that we moved down to Southampton which was another youngish university. Sheffield, of course, was so - called red brick university and had been founded in the 19th century but had expanded a great deal and has expanded since. Southampton was another originally red brick university and was expanding at that time, and Barry Cunliffe had got a very energetic department going and so it continued to grow in a very satisfactory way, I think. I very well remember my inaugural lecture there. As a professor one was expected to give an inaugural lecture and my theme, I chose to be social archaeology which I think was what archaeology was working towards at the time, but it was perhaps more memorable for the circumstance that the vice-chancellor, Professor Gower, knew well Sir Mortimer Wheeler because he had served in Sir Mortimer Wheeler's regiment while Wheeler was a colonel in North Africa during the war, and so Sir Mortimer Wheeler agreed to take the chair at the inaugural lecture. And so he was invited to make a few preliminary remarks, and Wheeler's remarks were very interesting but they extended from 5 minutes to 10 minutes to 20 minutes and an inaugural lecture is very carefully timed, it's supposed to be about 40 minutes, then you repair for drinks, and so the vice-chancellor evidently became slightly restive, as, indeed, did I, I was very nervous and I'd like to give me inaugural lecture. And so he sort of tried tactfully to interrupt Sir Mortimer in full flow and Sir Mortimer just got more firmly in his stride and recollected his military days with "Gunner Gower" as he referred to the vice-chancellor, in the North African campaign. But, anyway, Wheeler, finally sat down so I was able to give my inaugural lecture and so that was, as I say, on the theme of social archaeology.
Baron Renfrew of Kaimsthorn is a British archaeologist known for his work on the dispersal of the Proto-Indo-Europeans and the prehistory of PIE languages. He has been Disney Professor of Archaeology at Cambridge as well as Master of Jesus College and Director of the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research.
Title: My inaugural lecture at Southampton
Listeners: Paul Bahn
Paul Bahn studied archaeology at Cambridge where he did his doctoral thesis on the prehistory of the French Pyrenees. He is now Britain's foremost specialist on Ice Age art and on Easter Island, and led the team which discovered Britain's first Ice Age cave art at Creswell Crags, Nottinghamshire, in 2003. He has authored and edited numerous books, including Journey Through the Ice Age, The Enigmas of Easter Island, Mammoths, The Cambridge Illustrated History of Prehistoric Art, and, with Colin Renfrew, Archaeology: Theories, Methods and Practice which was published in its 5th edition in 2008.

State v. Atencio, 85 N.M. 484, 513 P.2d 1266 (1973)
July 18, 1973 · Court of Appeals of New Mexico · No. 1119
85 N.M. 484, 513 P.2d 1266
STATE of New Mexico, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Robert ATENCIO, Defendant-Appellant
513 P.2d 1266
STATE of New Mexico, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Robert ATENCIO, Defendant-Appellant.
No. 1119.
Court of Appeals of New Mexico.
Certiorari Denied Aug. 13, 1973.
*485Harold H. Parker, Albuquerque, for defendant-appellant.
David L. Norvell, Atty. Gen., Ronald Van Amberg, Randolph B. Felker, Asst. Attys. Gen., Santa Fe, for plaintiff-appellee.
SUTIN, Judge.
Defendant was convicted of possession of heroin with intent to distribute it. Section 54-11-20(A) (3), (B), N.M.S.A. 1953 (1972 Int.Supp.). He appeals. We affirm.
Defendant was charged with "Trafficking in a Controlled Substance, to-wit: Heroin, contrary to Chapter 84, New Mexico Laws 1972"; that defendant "did possess with intent to distribute a controlled substance, to-wit: heroin." The particular section of the Controlled Substances Act violated wás not stated.
A. Defendant was properly charged.
Section 54-ll-20(A) (3), (B) provides that it is unlawful for any person to intentionally possess "with intent to distribute any controlled substance enumerated in Schedules I or II which is a narcotic drug." Schedule 1(B) (10) lists "heroin".
Section 54 — 11-22(A) provides in part:
. [I]t is unlawful for any person to intentionally distribute or possess with intent to distribute a controlled substance except a substance enumerated in Schedules I or II which is a narcotic drug. [Emphasis added]
This section provides for unlawful conduct in which other controlled substances are involved exclusive of narcotic drugs enumerated in Schedules I and II.
Defendant contends that the emphasized language means "that it is unlawful to possess with intent to distribute a controlled substance in Schedule I except a narcotic drug .... What the Defendant in this case clearly did was not a crime." We cannot agree.
The word "except" as used in the above section means "exclude". Webster's Third New International Dictionary Unabridged, at 791 (1966); Rickman v. Com*486monwealth, 195 Ky. 715, 243 S.W. 929 (1922).
The "except" language "excludes" a narcotic drug such as heroin enumerated in Schedule I. There is no conflict between the two sections, supra. Defendant was properly charged under § 54-11-20(A)(3), (B).
B. Heroin was a narcotic drug.
Defendant contends "[T]here was no proof . . . that the heroin was a narcotic drug as is defined in the Controlled Substances Act".
Section 54-11-2 (P) defines "narcotic drug" as follows:
P. "Narcotic drug" means .
(1) opium and opiate, and any salt, compound, derivative or preparation of opium or opiate;
Schedule I, § 54-11-6 (B) (10) lists heroin as an opium derivative.
Proof that tests were made to show that the substance possessed by defendant was heroin, was sufficient proof that heroin was a narcotic drug. The burden of proof is on the defendant, not the State, to prove that the substance identified as heroin was not a narcotic drug as an exemption or exception. Section 54-11-36. No such proof was made by defendant. United States v. Rowlette, 397 F.2d 475 (7th Cir. 1968).
C. The Controlled Substances Act is constitutional.
Defendant contends §§ 54-11-20 through 54-11-25 which define unlawful activities and provide penalties are unconstitutional because "unlawful activities" are not mentioned in the title of the Act. N. M.Const. art. 4, § 16. We find no merit to this contention. City of Albuquerque v. Garcia, 84 N.M. 776, 508 P.2d 585 (1973).
D. The sentence imposed is not subject to appeal.
Defendant was sentenced for a term of not less than ten years nor more than fifty years for a second degree felony set forth in § 54-11-20 (B). In orally imposing the penalty, the trial court said:
[U]nder this new law, the sentencing is mandatory on the part of the Court .... I will impose the statutory and mandatory penalty of ten to fifty years in the penitentiary.
The defendant contends this case should be returned to the trial court for a redetermination of the sentence since the judge believed he had no discretion and could not suspend adoption of the sentence or defer sentence or put defendant on probation.
Section 40A-29-3(B), N.M.S. A.1953 (2nd Repl.Vol. 6) provides the penalty for a crime constituting second degree felony. It is not a "mandatory penalty" because it does not prohibit suspension of sentence or probation. Jones v. United States, 419 F.2d 593 (8th Cir. 1969). The trial judge had discretionary authority to defer imposition of the sentence, suspend the sentence in whole or in part or to seek a report as to what disposition appears best. Section 40A-29-15, N.M.S.A.1953 (2nd Repl.Vol. 6). If sentence was deferred or suspended, the trial court must order the defendant placed on probation. Section 40A-29-17, N.M.S.A.1953 (2nd Repl.Vol. 6); State v. Serrano, 76 N.M. 655, 417 P.2d 795 (1966).
The trial court, however, did not state that it had no discretion, or no power, to defer or suspend the sentence or put the defendant on probation. Although the language used was erroneous, the trial court did not abuse its discretion. Serrano, supra.
Furthermore, an oral statement by the trial court after conviction before judgment and sentence is not binding. It is merely evidence of what the trial court decided to do — a decision that the trial court can change at any time before the entry of the judgment and sentence. State v. Dodson, 83 N.M. 11, 487 P.2d 921 (Ct.App.1971). Defendant was convicted July 6, 1972 and judgment and sentence entered July 11, 1972. The question of "mandatory *487penalty" was not raised before or after judgment and sentence. Not having been raised in the trial court, it cannot be raised for the first time on appeal.
Other points raised do not require discussion.
HENDLEY and LOPEZ, JJ., concur.

Ever notice how even when you think something's random, it shows up in clusters anyway? Here's another stepbrother book. It's part of a series, but it was hard to see on GoodReads the other books in the series, so I can't tell you anything more than about this one.
I'm in a foreign country hoping to save my rock star step brother from flushing his career down the toilet.
Add in a female lead singer with the hots for him, disgruntled band mates and a manager sporting a pony tail, and you'll see I've got my work cut-out for me.
Unfortunately, Alex the rock star has plans of his own and all of them seem to lead back to me.
Don't worry, I'm fully over him, my will unbending to his affections. At least that's what I keep telling myself.
My Stepbrothers Rock is part of a series about forbidden love, innocent desires and the lust evoked by the rock star persona.
This is book 5 and my final book in the series. It contains mature content for the over 18 crowd. No cliffhanger.
There's a lot going on here, but I noticed that it's only 69 pages. Right there, I'm curious. Can a story this big, with all these obstacles to deal with — I'm not sure overcome is the right word, and Susan's groaning at the potential puns — deal with it all in 69 pages? That's awful short for female lead singers, disgruntled band mates, and a manager with a pony tail (I don't get what's wrong with that. I have a couple men friends from the day job with ponytails and they're pretty hot. And they aren't in manbuns).
I'm curious about the premise here. The narrator's over the step bro, but he's still got the hots for her. Can't he take no for an answer, and why not?
Gotta read. Between the page count and the question of the romance, I'm curious. Also curious about the rest of the series. Anyone know anything?


A Message from Kid President . . .

The Cracked Pot . . .
A water bearer in India had two large pots, each hung on the end of a pole which he carried across his neck. One of the pots was perfectly made and never leaked. The other pot had a crack in it and by the time the water bearer reached his master's house it had leaked much of it's water and was only half full.
For a full two years this went on daily, with the bearer delivering only one and a half pots full of water to his master's house. Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable that it was able to accomplish only half of what it had been made to do.
After two years of what it perceived to be a bitter failure, it spoke to the water bearer one day by the stream. "I am ashamed of myself, and I want to apologize to you." "Why?" asked the bearer. "What are you ashamed of?" "I have been able, for these past two years, to deliver only half my load because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your master's house. Because of my flaws, you have to do all of this work, and you don't get full value from your efforts," the pot said.
Each of us has our own unique flaws. We're all cracked pots. But if we will allow it, God will use our flaws to grace his table. In God's great economy, nothing goes to waste. Don't be afraid of your flaws. Acknowledge them, and you too can be the cause of beauty. Know that in our weakness we find our strength.
Consider this: Appreciate who you are.


are dental officers ever stationed in dangerous countries/warzones? what inherent risks are involved, if any?
The name says it all, I've been a long time lurker here. Finishing up my undergrad in 2 months hopefully and still need a couple prereqs. I'm looking for some advice now on my own personal situation. What would my chances be at an interview at UWO next year with a ~93% average, good extracurriculars and an okay DAT (16 BIO, 19 CHEM, 20 PAT, 22 RC)? P.S. Any recommendations for summer school organic chemistry in Southern Ontario? Is it true York is much easier?

Q: .htaccess file is not working in my Server My site is located in https://itjmovies.com/milan/public/ and I want to rewrite the URL by .htaccess file. From https://itjmovies.com/milan/public/ To https://itjmovies.com/milan/ but it is not working.
And also https://itjmovies.com/milan/public/auth/index.php?page=new To https://itjmovies.com/milan/public/auth/new/ but this is also not working.
I have kept my .httaccess file in /www/wwwroot/itjmovies.com/milan/.htaccess
My .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /public/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
RewriteRule ^public/auth/([a-zA-Z]+) /index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]

Thank You :)

A: I'm not sure that your edit made your question any clearer. In your question description the stated rewrites (from/to) appear to be the wrong way round to what I think they are intended (and conflict with the order in which you have written the directives), but anyway...
My assumptions:

*

*/public should not be part of the visible URL. Although your site is located in the /milan/public directory. You are making requests of the form /milan/<anything>.

*You need to internally rewrite all requests from /milan/<anything> /to /milan/public/<anything>.

*Requests of the form /milan/public/auth/<something>/ (note the trailing slash, as stated in your example) should be internally rewritten to /milan/public/auth/index.php?page=<something>
I would have 2 .htaccess files. One in the /milan subdirectory that simply rewrites/forwards requests to the public subdirectory. And another .htaccess file in /milan/public that handles rewrites that are specific to your application.
For example:
# /milan/.htaccess

RewriteEngine On

# Forward all requests to the "public" subdirectory
RewriteRule (.*) public/$1 [L]

# /milan/public/.htaccess

RewriteEngine On

# Rewrite "auth/<something>/" to "auth/index.php?page=<something>"
RewriteRule ^auth/([^/]+)/$ auth/index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]

The .htaccess file at /milan/public/.htaccess also serves to prevent a rewrite loop when requests are rewritten to the public subdirectory by the .htaccess file in the parent directory. This is because mod_rewrite directives are not inherited by default.
The QSA flag is only required if you are expecting query strings on the original request.
The RewriteRule pattern (1st argument) matches the URL-path relative to the directory that contains the .htaccess file.

RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /public/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
RewriteRule ^public/auth/([a-zA-Z]+) /index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]

A few notes on your attempt - which is close, but has a few crictical errors:

*

*The URL-path matched by the RewriteRule pattern does not start with a slash (when used in .htaccess), so the regex ^/(.*)$ will never match.

*The first rule is also an external redirect (ie. exposes the /public subdirectory) which doesn't seem right. Do you really want /public in the visible URL - if so then you should be linking directly to the /public subdirectory, not relying on a redirect?

*The first rule is redirecting to /public in the document root, not /milan/public.

*Once corrected, the first rule will also result in a rewrite-loop (500 Internal Server Error) as it will repeatedly rewrite the request... public/public/public/<something> etc.

*The second rule is also rewriting to /index.php in the document root, not /milan/public/auth/index.php.

The Parachicos dance is most famously performed in the town of Chiapa de Corzo in the Mexican state of Chiapas. It is said to honor three Catholic saints—Saint Anthony, Our Lord of Esquipulas, and Saint Sabastian. The costumed dancers wear wooden masks with bearded Caucasian faces, they carry handmade tin maracas that are painted silver, and on their heads are headdresses made of woven ixtle (or istle), a fiber obtained from the agave or yucca plant. These headdresses are decorated with colored ribbons.
Here is a mid-20th century Parachicos mask with its ixtle headdress.
A continuous band of carved hair, which represents the sideburns and beard, provides a stylized design that frames the face of a Parachicos mask. Unlike those that follow, this one has relief carved eyes, rather than inlaid ones made of glass. Like the later masks, this one does have applied eyebrows, but just on the right eye.
Two weeks ago I introduced a wonderful living carver, Ladislao López Ortiz of Pinotepa Nacional, Oaxaca. In that post and the next I focused on his Negrito masks, along with some masks by other carvers; today I want you to see other masks, particularly his masks of Tigres (jaguars). Here is one of those.
I purchased this mask from Ladislao in 2006; he had carved it in 2000. There is a crack in the jaw that extends to the back edge; this appeared after I had brought the mask back to my centrally heated house in Pennsylvania. Everything that you see was carved from a single block of wood. It has good lines and it has been carefully painted.
On June 1, 2015 I told of traveling to the Mixtec villages on the coast of Oaxaca to visit a family of traditional carvers. I introduced you to the masks of the late Filiberto López Ortiz. Last week I told about Filiberto's brother Ladislao López Ortiz, another master carver in Pinotepa Nacional who is still actively carving. These discussions prompted Randell Morris to send me photos of four masks in his collection that seemed similar to those I had included. Here is the first of these masks. One is immediately impressed by the quality of the carving and the patina.
This is a Black/White Negrito mask, a near duplicate of the mask I showed last week that was carved by Ladislao López Ortiz. I call your attention to some characteristic details—the finely carved protruding eyes, the grooved whirling chevron designs on the cheeks, the finely carved nose, the stylized mouth, and the cleft chin.
Last week I began to tell about a trip to the Costa Chica of Oaxaca that focused on some of the carvers and their masks. I began with a visit to the family of the late Filiberto López Ortiz.
This week I want to introduce you to Ladislao López Ortiz, the brother of Filiberto. Lao (short for Ladislao) is less widely known, but he remains one of the best carvers from this area. Here is a photo of Lao with a wooden crucifix that he has carved by hand. On the table are about a dozen of his Negrito masks.
Carnaval (carnival in English), the celebration that we also know as Mardi Gras, occurs each year, on or around Shrove Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday. In the Mixtec villages along the Pacific coast of the Mexican state of Oaxaca, these masked fiestas tend to occur over a period of days before Ash Wednesday. This year, as we have often done in the last few decades, my wife Lucy and I traveled to Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, so that we could travel up the coast to revisit and research these dances. Here is the view from the beach in front of our room in Puerto Escondido.
We could choose between this quiet stretch of ocean, a section of pipeline surf several hundred yards to the viewers left, or a peaceful swimming pool next to our bungalow.

The last time we saw Alice Obiefune, the Eleventh Doctor's regular comics companion, she was heading into the Time War to discover the origins of the Malignant. As Year Two #10, First Rule, begins, we find her back in her library, putting away a selection of Roald Dahl, Enid Blyton, and Spike Milligan.
It's a surprisingly calm opening page, one that immediately puts the reader on the back foot, and pretty much sums up this issue to a tee.
This is basically the tale of Alice's journey into the Time War, which seemingly shouldn't actually be possible due to the Time-Lock, here represented as a sort of metal wall. Admittedly, that's disappointing. Meanwhile, the Doctor and Abslom Daak try to save the life of the Squire, the mysterious companion of the Time Lord's… who the bow-tie-wearing alien doesn't remember at all.
Artist, Simon Fraser is obviously having good fun making his pages as barmy as possible, the sequences becoming increasingly horrific – culminating in a truly grim fate at the issue's cliffhanger. We see her grappling with the Master's TARDIS as the console's overcome by chronal tumours; being dragged into her books; and meeting… well, someone inevitable, considering how Year Two began, but nonetheless satisfying.
Oh, and at one stage, she somewhat resembles Caecilius from the Doctor Strange movie, although this issue was released before the film.
I especially like how Fraser – and colourist, Gary Caldwell – depict the Master's TARDIS (in its natural column-like state) spinning through the time vortex. Very Steve Ditko.
Aside from the narrative oddness, writer, Rob Williams does take the chance to add some further depth to the Doctor's relationship with Daak. Once more, he reveals himself to be just as manipulative as the Seventh Doctor, albeit this time failing miserably in predicting his companion's actions. Which leaves Alice in a huge amount of danger.
Considering the only monumental thing occurs at the conclusion of this issue, it whips along at a great pace, and there's a genuine lingering sense of peril as Alice goes somewhere her Doctor cannot follow. It's also very true to Obiefune's character, always having to go above and beyond in order to prove to herself that she's worthy of all the Doctor promises.
Once more, First Rule feels like the calm before the storm: it's a comic that will likely mean more in retrospect, after this run has concluded. There are a lot of questions yet to answer, but I'm certain this creative team will deliver by the end of Year Two.
The Eleventh Doctor #2.10 is out now, priced $3.99.

It's something about walking in the morning that clears my head and helps to get my day off to a great start. As I walk, I hear the gentle whispers of instructions or inspirations. Often it's then is when the answers to things I've longed pondered seem to be revealed to me. But there are just as many other times that I don't sense any overwhelming presence of Him. But as I gaze at the sky or listen to melody of the birds sing, I see His handiwork. I'm awfully grateful that even when I can't sense Him and I can't hear His voice because of the noise in my head, He never leaves me to walk alone. He's always watching and knows my exact whereabouts even when I'm lost.
Isaiah 43:2 When you go through deep waters,I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.
Amen Wanda. I love my early morning walks as well. On those walks I get a lot of inspiration that I know is only from the Lord. Thank you for sharing dear one. Blessings.
That's one of my favorite part of having a dog, daily excuse to go for a walk! Well-said, have a great day!
Hallelujah! Getting out in the morning is a great reminder of His presence. I always think of His grace in those moments.
I love to walk with the Lord in the morning, but sadly have not been able to as of late due to being ill! I enjoyed this very much!
I've been doing the morning walks and think of those things like you say as I look at the trees, plants, and flowers. Of course, where I am I also have to watch out for the traffic and walk past a lot of businesses and houses. But I'm still thanking and praising God for letting me have such a blessed life.
:)…you know, i love this post! it's along my thought patterns today. God bless you, sis!
Hi Wanda, I feel the same way! It is like moving meditation, it frees us, so we are open to listen!
There is something about being alone outside in the early morning that reaches all of us. When I lived in Florida, it was the ocean in the early morning. Now in Colorado it's the hiking trails. It's a good feeling.
Thanks guys for stopping by. Good to see so many of us find fresh manna in the mornings.

Passenger Traffic is Highest in 10 Years
Access to an international airport provides ease of travel for county residents and visitors, and supports the efficient movement of goods into and out of the county. Economic benefits include direct and indirect jobs and a range of aviation-related activities and services, which boost the region's economic output. Further, there is an "economic multiplier" effect as dollars generated by airport-related activities are re-spent and circulated throughout the local economy. Ontario International Airport (ONT) ranks among San Bernardino County's most important economic drivers. This indicator tracks passenger and freight volumes at ONT.
How is San Bernardino County Doing?
Both passenger and freight traffic continue their steady climb:
Ontario International Airport has experienced strong growth since its return to local control in November 2016.
Passenger traffic increased 12% in a single year to more than 5.1 million passengers in 2018.
Over 10 years, passenger traffic has increased a total of 5%.
Freight traffic increased 15% in 2018, on top of a 5% increase the prior year.
In 2018, a total of 751,529 tons of freight moved through the airport.
Freight volume has increased 92% in 10 years.
Volume of Passengers and Freight
Ontario International Airport, 2009-2018
Note: Freight totals include U.S. mail. Source: Ontario International Airport (flyontario.com)
A Growing Domestic and International Gateway
In the past two years, ONT added China Airlines, Frontier Airlines, and JetBlue to its lineup. In 2018, it launched the only trans-Pacific flights from a Southern California airport other than LAX. Growth projections show ONT reaching annual passenger volumes of 16 million to 28 million by 2040. No other airport in the six-county region has the capacity to accommodate this kind of growth. Additionally, FedEx has begun work on a 51-acre expansion of its hub operations at ONT – tripling the size of its operations at America's No. 1 airport for outgoing freight. The massive construction effort represents a $100 million investment by FedEx and will include a new sorting facility, ground support staging areas, maintenance buildings, enhance perimeter fencing and landscaping. The first phase is scheduled to open in late 2020. The project is part of a 30-year lease extension signed in 2018, with options to extend it another 20 years. FedEx has operated at ONT for more than three decades.

Hockey logos

Tulsa Oilers Logo PNG
The ice hockey team the Tulsa Oilers was formed in 1992 and since then the place of their location has been Tulsa, Oklahoma. They are often referred to as the "Ice Oilers" as there used to be a baseball team with the same name and the nickname helped avoid confusion.
The Oilers have had five primary logos so far.
The first team identity was registered in 1992. It is a wordmark in slant font consisting of the team's name with a hockey stick instead of the letter "L" and a hockey puck instead of the letter "O" positioned next to the stick. The color scheme includes blue and red.
The logo consisting of a stylized profile of an oil worker's head wearing a hard hat appeared in 1994. The letter "O" in the word "OILERS" is again represented in the form of a hockey puck.
The next Tulsa Oilers logo was intentionally made to look like a caricature. An intense-looking hockey player with a hockey stick in his hands is coming out of an oil pipe.
The 2004 logo is just a stylized wordmark "Tulsa Oilers" in blue trimmed in red and white. The dot above the letter "I" is depicted like a drop in red color.
In 2013 the Oilers actually switched to the 1994 version but recolored it using maroon, navy blue, silver and white.

NOTE: May contain triggers. A boy sold as a slave is used by a Roman woman to get pregnant so the master may have an heir. But it all backfires when an old soldier who serves her household takes pity on the boy. He teaches him to fight and when the child is born, helps the slave escape with his son. He is home but...his people aren't sure he is fit to take his father's place when the time comes. The Picts are ready to revolt against Roman rule and the Scotti may be caught in the middle. To make matters worse, the master is seeking his stolen son.

Discussion in 'Wood For Sale' started by Alex Lane, Oct 24, 2018.
Looking for some nice small project wood? Here's a box full of thins, cutoffs, inlay pieces, maybe some potential knife handles or pens in here! Leftovers from my now inactive knife scale business.
I stuffed a large flat rate game board box ($18.90 USPS price) and will ship to your door con-us for $30. I weighed it and it's almost 15 pounds of wood.
These are shown in a regular box but I was barely able to stuff everything in a USPS large game board box.
This would be great for the jewelry makers!


Sturdy Boots. Protective clothing fitting the weather be it brutal sun or bitter cold.
A broad brimmed hat covers my head most of the time.
The gear for a fair weather day hike usually weighs in at about 50 pounds. I use padded backpacking packs (Osprey, lowepro or mountain smith) and padded lens pouches – padding on everything! (climbing cliffs, and riding down screes requires a lot of intention in movement to not damage sensitive equipment).
With my gear continually escalating in weight I have recently started using some trekking poles, to get some of that weight off my legs as well as a couple extra feet on the ground 😉 , so far I find them very useful. I have tried a few and my current REI brand external locking ones have been the best (strongest) yet.

Blended Retirement System Frequently Asked Questions
According to the Department of Defense, Active duty military members who have served less than 12 years as of Dec. 31, 2017 are eligible to opt in. For Reservists, opt-in eligibility is for those who have "less than 4,320 retirement points" as of Dec. 31, 2017.

How Much Longer Will The High-3 Legacy Retirement System Be Available?
All military members who serve as of Dec. 31, 2017, are "grandfathered into the legacy retirement (high-3) system" according to the DoD. New recruits serving as of 1 January 2018 are automatically enrolled in BRS and do not have access to the legacy High-3 retirement system.
When Can I Opt In To BRS and How Long Do I Have To Decide?
The entire year of 2018 was set aside to permit affected soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines to choose which system is best for them. The last day to opt in to BRS, out of the legacy High-3 system, is December 31, 2018.
Will My Command Or Branch Of Service Want Me To Choose BRS Instead Of High-3?
The official guidance from the Department of Defense includes a requirement to "Avoid command influence on which retirement system a member should choose" and to "Stress the DoD does not take a position on a member's decision to opt in or not."
If I Opt In To The Blended Retirement System, When Do I Start Getting Matching Retirement Contributions From The DoD?
Those who opt in to BRS will automatically begin getting up to 4% in matching contributions, effective immediately upon opting in. For new recruits who begin military service on or after 1 January, 2018, a waiting period will apply.
What Is The BRS Mid-Career Cash Payout I've Heard About?
Those who choose or are enrolled in the Blended Retirement system will become eligible for a cash payout at some point between eight and 12 years of service. The Department of Defense says of this incentive, "active-duty members will be eligible for a cash incentive of 2.5 to 13 times their regular monthly basic pay, and National Guard and reserve members will be eligible for .5 to six times their monthly basic pay (if serving on active duty), in return for a commitment of at least three more years of service."
There is also an additional (and unrelated to the above) cash payout option under BRS; "Members may elect to receive a 25% or 50% lump sum payment of their retired pay discounted to the present value in exchange for reduced monthly retired pay until age 67".

Cognitive functioning in younger and older HIV-1-infected adults
Frances L. Wilkie, Karl Goodkin, Imad Khamis, Maria van Zuilen, Diana Lee, Robert Lecusay, Mauricio Concha, Stephen Symes, Paola Suarez, Carl Eisdorfer
In young adults, a major neurologic complication of HIV-1 infection is cognitive motor impairment. Epidemiologic findings suggest that increasing age is a significant risk factor for HIV-1 - associated dementia as the AIDS-defining illness. Findings from the few studies that have directly measured cognition in younger and older HIV-1 - infected adults, however, have been mixed, in part, because of small sample sizes and other methodologic differences between studies. The authors present preliminary findings on cognitive functioning in symptomatic HIV-1 - infected younger (aged 20-39 years) and older (aged 50 years or older) adults. Independent of age, HIV-1 infection was accompanied by learning and memory retrieval deficits, which were significantly associated with high plasma viral loads in the young adults. Relative to the younger and older HIV-1-negative (HIV-I-) groups, only the younger HIV-1-positive (HIV-1+) group had significantly longer reaction times (RTs). Within the older HIV-1+ group, however, longer simple and choice RTs were significantly correlated with higher viral loads and lower CD4 cell counts. Although HIV-1 infection affects cognition independent of age, longitudinal studies involving large numbers of older individuals are needed to determine whether there are age differences in the prevalence, nature, and severity of HIV-1-associated cognitive dysfunction.

In early 2018, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) implemented energy regulations impacting the commercial heating and cooling industry. These new standards will change how commercial rooftop air conditioners, heat pumps and warm-air for "low-rise" buildings are engineered.
The goal of these new standards is to improve efficiency and cut energy usage, saving homeowners and other property owners money in the long run. However, 2018 will be a transition year for the industry. An HVAC expert recently published an article describing some of the main areas of impact.
The first upsurge of technology will likely result in higher price tags.
Utilities will need to adjust their programs and savings calculations.
In the long term, business owners and homeowners will benefit from the changes as they experience the value of higher efficiencies.
