Three Puppies Jigsaw Puzzle Game
Three Puppies Puzzle Details:
About: These three cute puppies are today's new jigsaw main characters. They are ready and waiting, just click start and join them for a fun time around the yard. Have fun!
Puzzle Of The Day On: 27/Oct/2015
Cute Sleeping Kittens
After a "hard" day of playing and running around the house, these two kittens have decided to take a quick nap. Once they are rested they can get back to playing and chasing each other around the house. Kittens are highly social animals and spend most of their waking hours interacting with available animals and playing on their own.
This new jigsaw puzzle features a snow goose taking off from the surface of snow covered frozen lake. The Snow Goose, also known as the Blue Goose, is a North American species of goose. Its name derives from the typically white plumage. This goose breeds north of the timberline in Greenland, Canada, Alaska, and the northeastern tip of Siberia, and winters in warm parts of North America from southwestern British Columbia through parts of the United States to Mexico.
Cute Kitten Playing In The Yard
Pick your difficulty level, click start and join the cute kitten in today's puzzle for an adventure around farm yard. Kittens are highly social animals and usually enjoy human companionship. They are highly social animals and spend most of their waking hours interacting other animals, exploring their surroundings and playing on their own.
In this new puzzle we feature two cute French Mastiffs. Also known as Dogue de Bordeaux, Bordeaux Mastiff or Bordeauxdog this large breed of dog in one of the oldest originating from France. The Dogue de Bordeaux was known in France as early as the fourteenth century, particularly in southern France in the region around Bordeaux. Hence, the city lent its name to this large dog. The Dogue de Bordeaux is a well balanced, muscular and massive dog with a powerful build. It's color varies from shades of coppery red to brownish red with a black, brown, or red mask.
Another fun animal puzzle is here. Today we have two cute donkeys. Donkeys have a notorious reputation for stubbornness, but this has been attributed to a much stronger sense of "self preservation" than exhibited by horses. It is considerably more difficult to force or frighten a donkey into doing something it perceives to be dangerous for whatever reason. But once a person has earned their confidence they can be willing and companionable partners and very dependable in work.
The Corgi is a small type of herding dog that originated in Wales. Corgis have historically been used as herding dogs, specifically for cattle. They are of the type of herding dog referred to as "heelers", meaning that they would nip at the heels of the larger animals to keep them on the move. Corgis are very affectionate, love to be involved in the family, and tend to follow wherever their owners go. They have a great desire to please their owners, thus making them eager to learn and train
Cat In The Meadow
Today's new jigsaw features a cute cat walking around a green meadow.
Two Lions Resting
Also known as the "king of the jungle" or the "king of beasts", the lion is the second largest extant species after the tiger. The lion typically inhabits grasslands and savannahs, but is absent in dense forests. The lion's prey consists mainly of mammals, particularly ungulates, with a preference for wildebeest, zebras, buffalo, gemsbok, and giraffes in Africa and chital, sambar deer, nilgai, wild boar, chinkara and chousingha in India. In today's new puzzle we feature a two lions resting after a long day of hunting.
Cute Mackerel Tabby
As you know a tabby is any domestic cat that has a coat featuring distinctive stripes, dots, lines or swirling patterns, usually together with a mark resembling an "M" on its forehead. Mackerels or mackerel tabbies are also called "fish-bone tabbies", probably because they are named after the mackerel fish. The mackerel tabby pattern has vertical, gently curving stripes on the side of the body. The stripes are narrow and may be continuous or broken into bars and spots on the flanks and stomach. An "M" shape appears on the forehead along with dark lines across the cat's cheeks to the corners of its eyes, as you can see on the cute face of the cat being featured in this puzzle.
Cat Playing In The Snow
Today's jigsaw puzzle features a very cute cat playing in the snow.
This venomous snake lives in a wide array of habitats and hunts small animals such as birds and rodents. They lie in wait for their prey, or hunt for it in holes. They are native to the Americas, living in diverse habitats from southwestern Canada to central Argentina. The largest number of rattlesnakes live in Mexico and the American Southwest.Rattlesnake populations in many areas are severely threatened by habitat destruction, poaching, and extermination campaigns. They are also preyed upon by a variety of species, including ravens, crows, skunks, roadrunners, weasels, raccoons, opossums, coyotes, and king snakes. If you didn't know they take their name from the rattle located at the end of their tails, which makes a loud rattling noise when vibrated. The rattling sound are meant to deter predators or warn to passers-by that they are entering the snakes territory. Now that you know about it, think you can put this impressive snake back together? Click start and give it a try!
In today's new puzzle we feature a beautiful white-tailed deer walking through the shallow waters of a marsh. The whitetail is native to the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, and South America as far south as Peru and Bolivia. It usually lives in aspen parklands and deciduous river bottom-lands, and in mixed deciduous riparian corridors, river valley bottomlands, and lower foothills.

Gainesville 2021-22 school calendar features phased-in start
Tech's Gardner may have season-ending surgery
ATLANTA — Georgia Tech senior offensive tackle Andrew Gardner is considering season-ending shoulder surgery, coach Paul Johnson said Monday.
A decision from Gardner could come as soon as today.
Gardner was listed as questionable last week with a sore shoulder but was able to make his 48th consecutive start in Georgia Tech's 31-28 win over Florida State.
Gardner has started every game of his career, but that streak, and his season, could end this week. The left tackle is a two-time pick this season as Atlantic Coast Conference lineman of the week.
Georgia Tech spokesman Dean Buchan said Gardner is considering how the injury could affect his hopes for playing in the NFL.
The Yellow Jackets' starting right tackle, David Brown, missed the Florida State game with a back injury. Meanwhile, quarterback Josh Nesbitt was held out of Monday's light practice after suffering an ankle injury in the third quarter of the win over Florida State. Johnson said he expects Nesbitt to return to practice this week for the No. 22 Yellow Jackets' game at No. 19 North Carolina.

SHOUT! Factory Kids Delights with PRINCESS EMMY
By Jeri Jacquin | October 2, 2019
Coming to DVD from SHOUT! FACTORY Kids and director Piet De Rycker is the animated tale of a girl and her horse also known as PRINCESS EMMY.
Once a Princess named Carlotta after an accident, awoke to find she had the ability to talk to horses. Writing it all down in a book, the Princess also gave a warning that what she has written in a book was not to ever leave the castle.
Princess Emmy (Ruby Barnhill) rides her friend Caesar (Joel Fry) and all her horse friends. Laughing and talking together, they play games and enjoy each other's company. What Princess Emmy doesn't know is that a parchment written by Princess Carlotta has been taken to the wind. It has found its way back into Emmy's hands and strange things begin to happen.
A door opens leading her to a chamber where Princess Carlotta announces that she will be put to the test. Putting the parchment back in the book, a map reveals where she needs to go. Brother Moritz (Euan Mitchell) teases and parents are excited about the Princess Day Ball and Emmy loves the dress she will be wearing.
Emmy is excited but also nervous that she must pass another test as if she isn't busy enough. Running out of the castle, Princess Emmy gathers Caesar and the rest of the horses to follow the map. The path up the mountain brings them to a beautiful spot of waterfalls and a tower that asks her the question, 'are you worthy of the gift?'.
Cesar reminds Emmy that she must return home and what's waiting for her there is her cousin Princess Gizana (Bella Ramsey). Clearly the two don't get along and Princess Emmy talks with friend David (Nathan Mack) that passing any test might be harder than she thought.
Princess Emmy must take care of the precious book without Gizana finding out what is happening, making time for princess training and discovering the secrets of the castle and all while spending time with her four footed friends.
It's the life of a very special Princess!
Other cast include Vari Sylvester as Marie, James Pearson as Donny, Steven McNicholl as Vincenzo Massimo Cerimonata, Tim McInnerny as Robert Jack as Sebastian April, Michael Daviot as Xaver, Gregorius the Ghost, Al Hawkinson as Paul, Clare Waugh as Fionnuala Bloom, Gabriel Quigley as Frau Zwickelmeier, John Hannah as King Karl and Franka Potente as Queen Karla.
SHOUT! Factory has grown into a tremendous multi-platform media company. Releasing new animated features such as the exquisite Long Way North, and the epic fantasy Beauty And The Beast. Also their own original horror film, Fender Bender gives fans a good scare. For more of what SHOUT Factor has to offer please visit www.shoutfactory.com.
PRINCESS EMMY is produced by Studio 100 Media (Germany) and co-produced with Talking Horse (UK) and Witebox (Belgium).
PRINCESS EMMY is a delightful story with themes of a young girl discovering what she is truly capable of. Yes, she might be a Princess but she is actually more of a young girl finding her place in her world of horses and family. Of course in the story is also family not getting along so much but they will find their way as family often does.
The film is colorful, fun, full of magic, a little chaos and secrets that waited a long time to find its way to the right person. Watching it with my granddaughter we laughed, were very surprised and loved the way the story was told. That's what is important to me, being able to watch a film with my family and both of us enjoying it so very much.
In the end – it is all about her secret gift!

Greater Toronto office and industrial markets show continued marketplace strength during Q1-2015
By bdeditor On Apr 23, 2015
The Colliers International Q1-2015 Report for the country's largest marketplace shows continuing strength in downtown Toronto's office market and continued demand for warehouse and distribution space to support growing Canadian exports.
Greater Toronto Office Market
Despite 2.7 million square feet of office space coming on-stream downtown during the last calendar year, the Greater Toronto Market experienced 432,300 square feet of positive absorption in Q1-2015, occurring primarily in the downtown core.
Downtown vacancy rates declined to just 2.7 per cent in Q1 and will likely remain low throughout 2015, because of high demand for space and a limited new supply coming to market.
The GTA office market continues to be one of the largest in North America, with total office inventory growing to more than 198.5 million square feet in Q1, with a vacancy rate decreasing slightly to 5.3 per cent during the first quarter.
The difference in competition for office space downtown compared to the rest of Toronto has led to a growing disparity in net and gross rental rates. On average, Class "A" downtown net rents are $16-$20 more per square foot, while gross rents are approximately $20-$30 more.
The popularity of open office space designed buildings abutting Toronto's downtown core is continuing. "The attractiveness of renovated warehouse space turned into chic office space is especially high amongst creative agencies and technology companies, who attract younger employees," said John Arnoldi, Executive Managing Director, Toronto Brokerage, Colliers International.
"Brick and Beam space, primarily found in the Entertainment District and Downtown West, is commanding gross rents in the $40 range, attesting to the appeal of these unique buildings," he added.
Beyond downtown, there was minimal movement throughout Toronto as vacancy rates were virtually unchanged in markets located outside the central core. York, Durham, Peel and Halton Region experienced an increase in overall vacancy rate in Q1, and with approximately one million square feet of office space currently under construction within these markets, it is likely that vacancy rates will continue to increase during 2015.
Greater Toronto Industrial Market
Although the retail industry had a rough start this year with top chains like Target, Suncor, Mexx, Sony, Future Shop and others downsizing, closing, or leaving the country, the upside is the continued demand for warehousing and distribution space to support retailers aggressively pushing into e-commerce.
During Q1-2015, more than 1.6 million square feet of industrial property was absorbed, the majority of which was modern, big block properties of more than 200,000 square feet, specifically in the GTA West market.
"With the strengthening US economy, there are positive forecasts that the volume of Canadian exports will improve and lead to growth in the manufacturing sector," Peter Garrigan, Vice President, Business Development, Colliers International. "However, properties 50,000 square feet and below are preferred by manufacturers due to lower development costs compared to larger properties, and the GTA is not ready to accommodate growth in this manufacturing sector due to the current limited supply of this size asset class," he added.

Do We Secretly Want to Live in Little House on the Prairie?
The rise of the urban hipster, mom blogger as business, and upscale domesticity.
By Lauren Le Vine Published: May 8, 2013
"This sauce will look great on my blog."
You know who would totally have a kick-ass blog? Laura Ingalls Wilder. She was the original Pioneer Woman — not only did life take her from the big woods of Wisconsin to the prairies of South Dakota to Missouri, she carefully chronicled the hardships, achievements, and other adventures her family encountered along the way. Heck, Little House on the Prairie has an entire chapter on building a door for your sod house. If that's not DIY, I don't know what is.
The do-it-yourself pioneer woman spirit is alive and well in modern-day females, too, but while Wilder was churning her own butter because it was the only way for the family to have it, women today are doing so because it fulfills an artistic and creative longing. In a piece called "The Rise of the Crafty Hipster, Michelle Goldberg talks about legions of hip young women who choose to engage in domestic pursuits for a living. Whether they feel stifled by the corporate world and trying to "lean in," want to stay at home with their children, or worry about getting jobs (so instead they choose to create their own), these women don't view the decision to stay home and engage in crafty, creative pursuits as opting out.
Instead, they're raising the bar for their chosen craft — just like Sheryl Sandberg encourages females to do in the corporate world. As more and more "homemaker blogs," artisinal jam-makers, and Etsy shop creationists emerge, so does the trend of upscale domesticity. Think of The Pioneer Women's amazing recipes and the gorgeous way she photographs them for her site. It's not just food porn, it's home-and-hearth, warm-and-fuzzy, I want to make that for my family goodness. Ree is a city chick who molded country life into something that works for her personality — and she's managed to turn it into a business, too. While it takes talent and business savvy to do so, turning artistic pursuits into the way you make your living represents the ultimate DIY dream.
It really comes down to this: Society as a whole continues to get more enlightened and self-aware, while economic and corporate conditions become more harsh and stringent. "Our current collective nostalgia and domesticity-mania speak to deep cultural longings and a profound shift in the way Americans view life" Goldberg writes on The Daily Beast. When we reach a boiling point, the idea of following your bliss and creating your own opportunities — as hippie-dippy and cliché as it can sound — is what these "radical homemakers" are doing. So yes, we may have too many Etsy shops toting hand-carved hammered dulcimers, but the people making them are happy, just like it's easy to imagine Laura Ingalls Wilder was on the prairie.
Ed. note: This post was written by someone who may or may not want to relocate to a cabin in the mountains and whittle for a living. She has already named her future Etsy shop "Woodn't You Like to Know."

Little bit about Iceland
July 6, 2015 • By Kelly Glynn
Reykjavik, known as Cove of Smoke, is the capital of Iceland with roughly 2/3 of the population residing in the city and it's surrounding parts. It's a relatively small area but it's compact with design studios, art galleries, an active port, shopping, heated swimming pools, lots of fantastic food plus the Harpa and bars for music. It's summer in the city and tourists are crowding the streets, highways, waterfalls and glaciers.
view from the docks
Icelanders enjoy roughly 24 hours of sunlight from April – October. The sun gods are rewarding them for they will savor these days when the calendar turns October and the sun makes an appearance only three-five hours a day until the end of March. When I asked a local how he survives such darkness, he professed nothing changes. They just use more street and indoor lighting.
Iceland is the 18th largest island in the world with about seven percent habitability as the topography of the island consists of mainly mountains and glaciers – wasteland as locals refer to it. Iceland is relatively young having formed on the ocean surface about 16-18 million years ago by a series of volcanic eruptions in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
The island is located at the juncture of two continents and lies between the North American and Eurasian plates, which spread at a rate of 2.5 centimeters per year. Geological depictions that map Europe and North America some 65 million years ago and today actually show Iceland moving closer to North America but it will probably be another 60 million years before Iceland attaches to other land. Americans are rooting for a North American connect.
The earliest settler arrived in Reykjavik around 874 from Norway. At that time, the Vikings "seafarers" were setting out from Norway and Denmark some to seek freedom from tyranny in their homelands or possibly for food as their communities grew crowded. My guide Jon informed me that the Vikings lived and died by the sword, which may explain why Icelanders are so resilient, strong and happy today. They have fought for generations to survive. Iceland can blame the Vikings for the rats and mice and cats and horses. The only native animal to Iceland is the Arctic Fox and Arctic Tern(bird) .
To learn more about the Vikings
Icelandic Flag
Iceland is one of the Nordic countries (Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, the Faroe Islands, Aland Islands and Greenland). The locals may resemble a Norwegian, Dane or Swede or German (think white blonde hair, tall, natural) but they are Icelandic people speaking Icelandic, a sub-group of the North Germanic languages. Please save us all and don't try pronouncing anything. You will be wrong like way off! It is believed that if one of the earlier settlers returned to present day Iceland he/she would have no issue understanding as Icelandic is an insular language.
Give it a go if you must!
Góðan daginn – GO-than DYE-inn
(Hello)
Ég tala ekki íslensku – YEG TA-la EK-ki EES-len-skoo
(I don't speak Icelandic – DUH!)
If you didn't master that lesson, not to worry, everyone speaks English perfectly fine in Reykjavik and locals smile and giggle when you try speaking Icelandic anyway.

Does Natural Mosquito Repellent Actually Work?

Health & Wellness Jun 5, 2019

Warm summer days bring sunshine, vacations, and blissful time spent outdoors. But they also bring swarms of mosquitoes and other insects out to get their fill—which could leave you trying to figure out how to protect yourself and loved ones from painful bites and stings that could trigger allergy or disease.
This is when many people consider trying a natural mosquito repellent, hoping that these products might be better for their health and the environment than standard bug sprays. But do natural mosquito repellents work?
According to University of California, Davis entomologist Walter Leal, who has done pioneering research on insects' sense of smell, the answer is "Yes and no."
DEET vs. Natural Mosquito Repellent
According to Leal, the common chemical DEET (N, N-diethyl-meta-toluamide), remains the most effective repellent on the market—the gold standard in fending off insects. It works by "blinding" mosquitoes to human presence by preventing them from smelling human sweat and breath.
"I wish I could say that there's a better natural mosquito repellent," says Leal, "but that's not the case. One major problem with some natural products is the so-called complete protection time. They work for a short duration, but they don't last long enough. Do people want to reapply a product every two to three hours? No. And they would forget to do it."
Leal says that if people know that they're going to be outside for only a short period of time, it's okay to use a citronella-based repellent, or another natural bug spray that has shown short-duration effect, including compounds like eugenol, linalool, citral, and geraniol. But people shouldn't expect these natural insect repellents to work for longer than about an hour, or for them to be as effective as DEET.
"Because they are volatile," Leal explains, "natural insect repellents release a large [number] of molecules per time. This makes them work, but not for too long. DEET is a chemical of low volatility, so it releases a lower number of molecules per time and lasts longer."
The Insect-Repellent Clothing and Gear Every Traveler Should Have
Is Natural Bug Spray Safer Than DEET?
What about the perception that DEET is more toxic than natural mosquito repellent, both to human health and to the natural environment?
"I think people sometimes get a little too nervous using so-called 'synthetic' products," says Ari Whiteman, the director of Charlotte, North Carolina's Urban Mosquito Project and an epidemiology fellow at the Centers for Disease Control. "Yet two large-scale reviews by the EPA have found that DEET 'does not present a health concern.' While natural insect repellents have shown inconsistent levels of effectiveness that may vary between species, DEET is widely effective [and] safe, and should not be avoided simply because it is not a compound that naturally exists in nature."
Leal concurs, pointing out that no chemical is completely safe: "One may die by drinking too much water. It is all about the cost-benefit, and a matter of balancing how much risk is worth taking. I would say that the risks of wearing DEET are very low compared with the benefit of not being infected with mosquito-borne viruses like dengue, Zika, chikungunya, yellow fever, and West Nile. Because DEET has been on the market for such a long time, it carries lots of baggage, but has been scrutinized many, many times. DEET has been evaluated by the FDA often, and they always conclude that it is safe to use. I wear it and recommend it for my family."
Whiteman adds that it's important to note that the terms "natural" and "non-toxic" are not interchangeable, since there are plenty of natural compounds that are highly toxic, as well as plenty of artificial compounds that are completely safe. "The majority of studies indicate that DEET is the most effective mosquito repellent for the longest period of time," he affirms. "In comparative studies, natural insect repellents have turned in mixed results."
Regarding environmental concerns related to DEET, "there really aren't any," Whiteman says. "It's applied to the skin, so there is minimal risk of it entering waterways or vegetation. Some studies show it being slightly toxic to fish and birds, but the animals' contact with it is so limited that there isn't really anything to worry about in terms of environmental ramifications. Basically it breaks down so fast—days to weeks—that it doesn't have time to have a major impact."
Do Travelers Still Need to Worry About the Zika Virus?
A Non-Toxic Mosquito Repellent Made of Essential Oils
Still, there are plenty of people who, despite assurances from scientists that DEET is safe, prefer to use natural bug sprays. Abby Phon, a certified holistic health and wellness coach, traveled to South Africa and planned to get pregnant after that trip. "I wasn't crazy about the anti-malaria meds and wanted to do my best to avoid DEET," she recalls. "I was doing my best to keep my environment and body as non-toxic as possible, so I used a homemade essential oil blend as a non-toxic bug spray instead. It was a success—I didn't get any mosquito bites."
When Phon's daughter was three months old, she took her family out to the country and used the same oil blend. "It was amazing how after one spray, the bugs that were swarming us at lunch disappeared instantly and never came back," she remembers. "That was six years ago, and I've never used another bug spray since."
Her recipe for non-toxic mosquito repellent? Mix a tablespoon of witch hazel with the following amounts of pure essential oils from a brand called Young Living: 15 drops of cedarwood, 15 drops of geranium (to repel ticks), 10 drops of citronella, and 10 drops of palo santo, and put the mixture into a two-ounce glass spray bottle. "Not all essential oils are the same," Phon warns, "and it's important to know what you are using."
Anecdotal experiences aside, Whiteman acknowledges that there is some research-based evidence that eucalyptus oil can be as effective as DEET for repelling Aedes aegypti, the mosquito which spreads Zika, dengue, chikungunya, and yellow fever.
"That's no longer a common species in the U.S., though," he explains, "and the species that replaced it here, Aedes albopictus, doesn't seem to be affected by eucalyptus oil at all, so DEET remains the best option to protect against them. Other comparison studies also find that DEET consistently outperforms 'natural' mosquito repellents, including citronella."
Hookworm: The Disease That Could Ruin Your Beach Vacation
How Strong an Insect Repellent Do You Need?
Asked whether Leal would want the public to know anything specific about using insect repellents, he pointed to his team's research that suggests that people should use a higher percentage of DEET to fend off infected mosquitoes.
"The most dangerous mosquitoes are the old females," he says, "because there's more of a chance that they've been infected with a virus, and they've had enough time to let that virus replicate in their body. Now that old mosquito is dangerous. The problem is that old mosquitoes are less sensitive to DEET."
If you're wearing DEET just to rid yourself of nuisance mosquitoes, 6 to 7 percent DEET-based products are fine. When you're traveling in an endemic area, however, Leal emphasizes that it's important to wear a higher concentration of DEET—between 25 and 30 percent.
Circling back around to the question of whether natural bug sprays really work, the answer appears to be yes—but with plenty of caveats. If you choose to go with a natural bug spray over DEET, do so with the knowledge that you're taking more of a chance of getting bitten, and therefore infected, than you would if you went with DEET, which science says is the safest and most trusted bug spray there is, at least for now.

The study of infectious agents, their pathogenesis, the host response and the evaluation of newly developed countermeasures often requires the use of a living system. Murine models are frequently used to undertake such investigations with the caveat that non-biased measurements to assess the progression of infection are underutilized. Instead, murine models predominantly rely on symptomology exhibited by the animal to evaluate the state of the animal's health and to determine when euthanasia should be performed. In this study, we used subcutaneous temperature as a non-subjective measurement to follow and compare infection in mice inoculated with Francisella tularensis, a Gram-negative pathogen that produces an acute and fatal illness in mice. A reproducible temperature pattern defined by three temperature phases (normal, febrile and hypothermic) was identified in all mice infected with F. tularensis, regardless of the infecting strain. More importantly and for the first time a non-subjective, ethical, and easily determined surrogate endpoint for death based on a temperature, termed drop point, was identified and validated with statistical models. In comparative survival curve analyses for F. tularensis strains with differing virulence, the drop point temperature yielded the same results as those obtained using observed time to death. Incorporation of temperature measurements to evaluate F. tularensis was standardized based on statistical models to provide a new level of robustness for comparative analyses in mice. These findings should be generally applicable to other pathogens that produce acute febrile disease in animal models and offers an important tool for understanding and following the infection process.

room in Conventino
St Bartolomea
St Vincenza
An Institute totally founded on charity
The Institute of the Sisters of Charity was founded at Lovere (Bergamo) on 21 November 1832 by Bartolomea Capitanio aided by Caterina Gerosa and under the enlightened guidance of Don Angelo Bosio.
In his testimony don Bosio writes: " I, the undersigned, attest that on the morning of the 21st November 1832, Feast of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, in 'San Giorgio' parish Church, the most devout young women Caterina Gerosa and Bartolomea Capitanio received Holy Communion from the hands of Don Rusticiano Barboglio who celebrated Holy Mass at the altar of Our Lady of Sorrows. When Holy Mass was over they directed their steps to the house, formerly Gaia, now Conventino. There, before a holy picture of the Blessed Virgin Mary placed between two lit candles, on their knees and with the utmost devotion, they made, through the hands of Mary, the offering of themselves and of their possessions to God and consecrated themselves entirely to the works of charity in service of the poor, in the manner that was pleasing to God. These two persons alone, by love and sentiments bound more closely together than by family ties, started the holy Institute of the Sisters of charity, and began in the said house, poor and bare to the extent of lacking in the most strictly needed furniture, beds to sleep on and cooking utensils, but they were that gospel mustard-seed which in a marvelous manner grew and spread. This much I hereby attest in all truth and under oath, being myself not only a witness but also greatly edified and moved by it all".
The ecclesial recognition of the holiness of Bartolomea and Vincenza – the canonization – is the crowning, the celebration of a Christian experience that had grown and developed through their everyday life in Lovere. Their canonization means that the Church attests that the universal call to holiness was received and answered by them in their daily life to a heroic degree. As a result, the spiritual principles that guided and shaped their lives are for us and for all Christians a safe point of reference. In other words those who follow the path they have gone by can also become saints. Actually, the path they went by is that already traced by Christ. And so they refer back to Him, to the Gospel. Bartolomea wants us to be «followers of the Redeemer» (Foundation document 14), Vincenza points to the wisdom of the Crucified Lord. They did not fix their thoughts on themselves.
Their canonization took place on 18 May 1950, Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord. From recorded evidence relating to the Processes and from other sources referred to during the celebrations, the two Saints appear, first of all, together, in mutual relationship, one in need of the other, mutually complementary, thanks to their individual differences: together and distinct, each with her personal endowments and functions, for the good of the same undertaking.
In those pages, images more than words abound in an attempt to illustrate how they related to each other. Card. lldefonso Schuster, who called them the «Lovere pair», liked to use the image coined by Gerosa herself. «God has laid his yoke on them both: an eagle and an ox, to draw the cart of the Institute in the world». And Fr Agostino della Vergine, Postulator in the cause, used it himself in his address to the Pope after the reading of the Decree of canonization of Gerosa: «Chosen by divine Providence to continue the undertaking just started by B. Capitanio, whom she called 'the eagle', she called herself 'the ox', and ensured for the Institute the valid contribution of her sound piety, well-balanced mind, good sense of judgment and wide experience». Another meaningful image described Bartolomea as a searchlight that «cut across Gerosa's life till her whole life's path was made quite clear to her», a light which she then passed on to «so many sisters, giving them the same sure, clear guidance that she herself had received». In the 'building' series of images: Bartolomea thought out the plan, Vincenza did the building; one sowed the seed and sent down the roots, the other watered and tended the plant.


Casper College offers two degrees in the paralegal department and prepares its students for transfer to bachelor programs. We also offer a post-bachelor's certificate. Our research courses provide our students with legal research skills, fact investigation skills, and computer assisted legal research skills with Westlaw and the Internet. Other courses provide students with skills in digesting depositions, organizing case files, drafting discovery documents, wills, contracts, corporation forms, and family law documents. Students also organize a trial notebook, interview expert witnesses, fact witnesses and clients, research evidentiary issues, draft a demand letter, prepare a medical chronology, and draft jury instructions. Our students are assisted in job placement through a job search seminar and internships.
Students are encouraged to take the C.L.A. Exam (Certified Legal Assistant Exam), which is offered three times a year at Casper College. A review course is offered each fall to prepare for this exam. The C.L.A. credential is a requirement for many jobs and is a nationally recognized credential.
Train students for employment as a paralegal in law offices, under the supervision of a licensed lawyer, where the paralegal can assist in the economical and efficient delivery of legal services in both the local job market and throughout the United States.
Train students with skills that are transferable to other jobs such as social work, police work, government administrative positions, insurance, business and banking positions.

Rockford Police Chief Paul May's dash cam recorded this video of Lucas J. Jackson fleeing authorities. Jackson was initially involved in a crash near Hoenie and Fast roads where he reportedly crashed into the rear of another vehicle.
The driver of a 2003 Pontiac stopped to help the crash victims and reportedly was then threatened by Jackson with a screwdriver. Jackson then stole the Pontiac and made his way to State Route 707 and proceeded west.
May pursued the vehicle on 707, and after several miles at speeds up to 75 mph, Jackson lost control and crashed upside down in a field.
Saturday's paper will have the full story.

Antisemitic words and actions are on the rise in Canada. Most of this evil is perpetrated by far Left or far Right groups, organizations, and individuals, and by radical Islamists. Political, religious, business, academic, and social leaders are bombarded by lobbyists who are biased against or in outright opposition to Israel and the Jewish people. Many Canadian colleges and universities welcome incendiary speakers and educators who spew hate for Israel and Jews, yet refuse to permit pro-Israel speakers and educators to be heard. Some so-called Christian denominations have consciously decided to join the Israel hate-fest and are a discredit to their Christian faith and the Bible that informs it. This hypocrisy fuels antisemites, Holocaust deniers, and radicals. Actions like the Tree of Life Synagogue tragedy are in large part rooted in these and other related factors. I appeal to Canadian lawmakers, interpreters, and enforcers to take decisive action before it's too late.
Members of Parliament and other political leaders have the responsibility to address these evils, to legislate against them, and to enforce that legislation. In many cases, simply enforcing the existing legislation would help stem the tide. Those who participate in BDS and hate need a wake-up call. Clear-minded Canadians will not tolerate it. Those who falsely claim "human rights" abuses need to be confronted and have their "story" debunked. Canadian politicians need to sift through the rhetoric and stand firm on truth and true justice — not the injustice falsely peddled as justice. Prime Minister Trudeau needs to take a principled lead on this, to do what is right because it is right, to reject voices that support antisemitic or anti-Israel libels and violence, and to be on the right side of history.
MPs who are being lobbied need to fact-check. They need to be informed by reliable sources and to be reminded of self-evident, easily confirmed facts. Those who promote libels need to be identified and exposed for their lies. Those who falsely accuse Israel of apartheid need to observe the obvious: Israel is a free and liberal democracy, and it is many of her neighbours that actually practice racial segregation — against Jews. This is vividly evident with the Palestinian Authority who wants their version of "history" and national aspiration to be respected while denying the Jews theirs. Worse yet, many seemingly intelligent Canadian and world leaders act as if this is acceptable. Those who protest by boycotting Israel in Canadian institutions and society need to reconsider the whether there is any wisdom in boycotting the source of vast breakthroughs in technology, medicine, education, agriculture, defense, emergency response, and human aid, not to mention giving medical treatment to victims of civil conflicts in Syria and Lebanon.
Supporting Israel does not mean demonstrating hate for other nations and people-groups in the region. It's time for people and organizations to get off the Israel hate-wagon and dialogue in a civil manner. Then maybe some of the fuel for these barbaric incidents would be gone. That sounds like a fair request.

Q: replace a field value from another in elastic search I am novice to elastic search.I have a tran_timestamp field in (yyyy-mm-dd HH24:MI:SS) format in my csv file.Using logstash want to add another field in the output as (YYYY-mm-dd) format.Kindly help in achieving the same.

A: You can achieve that with a simple mutate filter, where you split the date in the tran_timestamp field and then only take the first element which you add to a new field (that I called tran_day)
filter {

    ...your CSV config...
  }
  mutate {
    split => {"tran_timestamp" => " "}

Bas traveling around Costa Rica page 6.
Our last night in La Fortuna was a great one. The sky miraculously cleared itself of any substance and allowed us to view one of the most amazing shows I've ever seen: The Arenal volcano and all its splendor. Eruption after eruption we sat outside our cabins, drinking coffee. We sat mostly in silence with the exceptional "ooh" and "aahh". It was like we were school children on Fourth of July. We were very lucky. I hear of stores of visitors coming to Arenal and never seeing it.
Day 1-San Jose (downtown hotel for the buses...if you have a rental car, it doesn't matter where you stay).
Day 2,3,4,5 & 6 -Nicoya Peninsula (come stay in Mal Pais/Santa Teresa, Montezuma or Tambor) use the place as a hub and take day trips to each one. They're easy to navigate and they're relatively close together.
Day 7 & 8 -Head to Jaco or Manuel Antonio. You have to cross the ferry and head south. Jaco is more lively and Manuel Antonio is more mature. You pick.
Day 9, 10 & 11 -La Fortuna and Arenal. You can spend more time here if you want. Just make sure you spend enough time here to see the volcano explode. Trust me, if you leave without seeing it, it would be an injustice.
Day 12 & 13 -are extra days that I believe you would spend in either Jaco or Manuel Antonio depending upon your speed. Day 13 you have to make your way back to San Jose. I suggest staying in Alejuela. It's cheaper and closer to the airport.
- Day 1 /San Jose.
- Day 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 /Nicoya Pensula, Mal Pais, Santa Teresa, Montezuma and Tambor.
- Day 7 & 8 /Jaco and Manuel Antonio.
- Day 9, 10 & 11 /La Fortuna and Arenal.
- Day 12 & 13 /Jaco, Manuel Antonio, San Jose or Alejuela.

As women defenders come to Geneva to discuss the specific risks they face in the context of Mexico's drugs war, ISHR calls upon the government there to redouble efforts to strengthen the Mechanism for the Protetion of Human Rights Defenders.
Este artículo también existe en español aquí.
(Geneva) - Mexico should strengthen its Mechanism for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders to better respond to the situation and protection of women human rights defenders facing worsening violence in the country, ISHR said today.
The call came following an ISHR co-sponsored Human Rights Council side-event in Geneva on the context of violence in Mexico and its impact on women human rights defenders.
The event was addressed by Michel Forst, UN Special Rapporteur on human rights defenders, and three women human rights defenders from Mexico: Norma Messino and Yésica Sánchez, as well as Olga Guzmán from the Mexican Comission for the Defense and Promotion of Human Rights (CMDPDH). The audience heard how the context of a deteriorating human rights situation - alongside the ongoing 'War on Drugs' and combined with lack of accountability and impunity for the killings of activists - have conspired to exacerbate the risks for women defenders in the country.
Ms Guzmán shared that since 2006 and the launch of an open confrontation strategy against organised crime, human rights defenders (HRDs) have become some of the most vulnerable to crimes committed by multiple State and non-State actors in the context of 'the war on drugs'. Since then, Mexico has accumulated alarming numbers of dead, forcibly disappeared and displaced persons as a result of the widespread violence, pervasive corruption and impunity.
'The Ayotzinapa case, which is one of the worst tragedies that has been seen in the country, unfortunately is not an isolated incident. In contrast, it reflects a broader pattern of gross and systematic human rights abuses committed with impunity,' Ms Guzmán said.
Civil society representatives in the audience commented that they had noticed that during the Council's High Level Segment and after the recent reviews of Mexico by the UN Committee on Enforced and Involuntary Disappearance and the UN Committee against Torture, the Mexican State refrained from using the term 'widespread violence' to describe the country's ongoing situation and has been appealing to the term 'isolated events' which might be solved by the creation of more institutions like the Mechanism for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders and Journalists.
The panel discussed how women human rights defenders are often mothers, sisters, wives and daughters of victims of enforced disappearance, arbitrary detention and torture; women who defend their lands against the imposition of transnational corporations; women who raise their voice to be freed from violence, who fight for the recognition of sexual and reproductive rights, or who call for justice and accountability.
Clips were shown from the campaign 'Make them visible', profiling the brave women who defend human rights in Mexico and face several challenges and risks when doing their work. The films demonstrated how many women defenders there work in rural or marginalised communities, which makes it harder for them to be seen and heard.
Yésica Sánchez from Oaxaca stressed the lack of response from the authorities to the killings of women defenders, and the impunity which allows for aggressions by State actors to occur on a daily basis.
'We do not have support from the Protection Mechanism at all, whilst a catalogue of military police, municipal police and state police have been identified as the perpetrators of the aggressions. A State that lets this happen cannot be called a democratic state,' said Ms Sánchez.
Norma Mesino from Guerrero pointed out that the crisis in Mexico is structural and has impact in all levels of society. 'To be a social activist in Mexico represents a huge risk; the government leaves us defenceless,' said Ms Mesino.
She spoke of how her request for protection from the Mechanism was futile and, with no effective response at the national level, felt forced to request help at the Inter-American Commission for Human Rights, which has now dictated precautionary measures for both her and ten members of her family.
During his intervention, the UN Special Rapporteur, Michel Forst, highlighted that a specific section in his next report will be dedicated to women defenders because of the specific risks they face as a reprisal for their work; their families are targeted, exposing women activists to even greater pressure than men often face. He stressed that his mandate aims to ensure a gender perspective in its work and that last year he sent at least five communications to the Mexican government regarding women human rights defenders. He welcomed the government's invitation for an in situ visit in 2016 and expressed that one of its main focuses will be to look more deeply at the situation of women human rights defenders.
The visit to Geneva of the Mexican defenders came as their government remained without both a permanent Under-Secretary for Human Rights and an Executive Coordinator for the Mechanism for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders and Journalists. Their recent resignations mark the latest in a long line of staff instability in key posts related to the protection of defenders, with many authorities being accused of lacking the assets required to lead such key posts and others themselves denouncing the lack of resources and political support required to operate.
Last week Edgar Cortez, civil society representative oo the Mechanism's governing body published a salient article in which he noted that the advances made in the Mechanism's implementation in 2014 have been undermined by ongoing problems with risk analysis methodology, the adequacy of the measures authorised, an insensitive attention to defenders, poor and poorly treated staff, and a lack of political will to allow the Mechanism to deal with the root causes of threats to defenders. Women human rights defenders and collectives often suffered disproportionately, he noted.
'The Mexican government has yet to demonstrate that it is truly committed to overcoming these ongoing obstacles to implementation of the Law for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders and Journalists,' said ISHR's Advocacy and Communications Manager, Ben Leather. 'We call upon President Peña Nieto to ensure that the posts of Under-Secretary and National Coordinator are filled with people with proven human rights experience, who must then be given the political backing necessary to finally prioritise the Mechanism's implementation and fulfil Mexico's obligation to protect human rights defenders'.
Peace Brigades International and the Washington Office on Latin America recently published a dossier documenting failings in the Mechanism's implementation. ISHR, meanwhile, asked the Special Rapporteur in the Human Rights Council this week what he would do to ensure that States with human rights defender laws and policies - such as Mexico - do more to ensure their effective implementation.
This event was co-sponsored by the CMDPDH, ISHR, The Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights, Peace Brigades International, Protection International, Frontline Defender, JASS Just Associates, Amnesty Internationalism, the Mexican National Women Human Rights Defenders Network, The Observatory for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders, The World Organisation against Torture (OMCT), Consorcio Oaxaca, CONEXX and the German Coordination for Human Rights in Mexico.


MIPET, Polytechnic School - Engineering Faculty - Genoa University, Simulation Team, Confindustria, Professional Engineer Organization, ANIMP & Smart Energy Team coordinate this Workshop.
The Companies organize, during the Meeting, Campus Interviews for evaluating the Young Graduates, as well as Engineers with experience, interested in working opportunities both in local positions and international projects.
Therefore also Engineering Students are invited to discuss future Opportunities and current Expectations with companies for future placement.
Young Scientists and Computer Science people are welcome, considering the strong interest of the Companies and Institution on these profiles.
The first editions of these meeting were focused on Industrial Plant Business Sector therefore the new ones involve Companies of different areas; for instance in March 2014 over 20 Companies and 3 International Organization attended the event, while over 120 Curricula was presented by students and young engineers and over 600 campus interviews were completed with Leading Companies active at International and National Level; these Companies resulted very interested in evaluating young engineers (i.e. Genova, Meeting Summary & Images, February 2012, June 2012, March and October 2013, March 2014, Fall 2014, Spring 2015).
The Customer Satisfaction Level of Companies and Institution is summarized in the following report March 2014. Pictures of April 2015 edition are summarized in this gallery.
Companies interested in attending are invited to contact 1year1day@simulationteam.com and to prepare Your Material.
November 23rd, the Genoa Polytechnic School has opened the doors of its prestigious Headquarters, Villa Cambiaso, for the classical meeting with the World of Industry & Research and the young engineers. During this day it becomes possible to finalize job opportunities through Campus Interviews with Industries, Hi-Tech Company and Research Centers. After an overview on the current situation, Prof. Agostino Bruzzone, event coordinator and president of the Master MIPET, has promoted an intense debate with over twenty Companies and Institutions, relevant at National and International level. The discussion allowed the different players to present their initiatives and to explain clearly their expectations, proposals and needs. After this discussion the interview sessions started immediately. In fact, by this way approach the Genoa Polytechnic School offers the possibility, in a single day, to attend interviews that normally would need an entire year, hence the motto 1 YEAR 1 DAY (www.itim.unige.it/mipet/1year1day ). It should be emphasized, moreover, the Industrial and Technological Excellence of the entities attending the event as well as their motivation for searching talented young engineers; the list of participants includes ABB, Danieli, Tenova, Fisia, Accenture, Ansaldo Energia, APM Terminal, Cetena, KPMG, IBM, Wartsila, Masdar Institute, NATO STO CMRE, PSA Voltri, Rina, Cad.I.Tech, Cal-Tek, IB, Mast, Tech-Value, Vernazza Truck cranes The purpose of this day is clearly multiple: a major goal is to reinforce and renew the strong connection, in Genoa, between Engineering Faculty and innovative international reality. Transversally, the meeting allows young graduates to face the challenge of their first job interview, to experience interaction with leading Industries and Institutions. This is a key test to check the ability of young engineers to deal companies, to probe themselves in front of an audience of stakeholders different from that one faced as students and that requires a mature and professional. Do not underestimate the strategic importance for Companies to show and explain themselves to an audience interested in the pursuit of excellence, to capture the attention of those who will be their future, which will soon become their present and which will innovate, state and reinvent their past in a relentless pursuit of progress and success. In this context, the participants were also able to experience the SPIDER (Simulation Practical Immersive Dynamic Environment for Reengineering), a new generation of Virtual Cave made from Simulation Team, that lets you interact dynamically with virtual worlds. The SPIDER enables to offer examples of innovative solutions created by Genoa University for real projects with Industry and International Agencies in multiple sectors including security, plant engineering, logistics, defense and medicine. At the same meeting it was presented the 7th edition of the International Master MIPET, which through its corporate sponsors is the promoter of the initiative wanted by the industry and an opportunity to bring the new engineers to work. The meeting was attended by well over a hundred young people, mostly new graduate engineers interested in starting their careers; in this edition of the event, as in the past, were also present senior students and young engineers; EURES also, with his staff, has presented additional opportunities provided by the European Community.

Our work on the BC Central Coast explores how land-ocean coupling affects the ecology and biogeochemistry of the nearshore ocean. The current focus of this research is an exploration of the landscape controls on dissolved organic carbon and nutrient flux from small watershed systems, and the distribution and fate of riverine materials in the coastal ocean. Our team's contribution to this project is one component of a highly interdisciplinary effort that involves hydrologists, terrestrial ecologists, microbial ecologists, and biological oceanographers from multiple institutions. Our work in this region is also supported by participation in the Coastal Rainforest Margins Research Network.
