Activity levels in children vary with their age. A 2-year old is usually more active, and has a shorter attention span, than a 10-year old. A child's attention level also will vary depending on his or her interest in an activity. The tolerance level of the supervising adult also plays a role - parents may be able to tolerate a highly active child at a playground in the morning, for example, better than they can at home late at night.
Given these variables, diagnosing hyperactivity can be difficult. Consult a psychologist or physician for further information if you believe your child may be hyperactive.
Parents and teachers often claim that sugar (such as sucrose), aspartame (NutraSweet), and artificial flavors and colors cause hyperactivity and other behavior problems in children. Some people argue that children should follow special diets that limit the amount of sugar, flavorings, or colors they eat.
However, if a special diet of foods without artificial flavors or colors works for a child, it may be because that family has begun to interact with each other differently when they are following the special diet. These behavioral changes, not the diet itself, may improve the child's own behavior and activity level.
Refined (processed) sugars may have some effect on children's activity. Because refined sugars and carbohydrates enter the bloodstream quickly, they produce rapid fluctuations in blood glucose levels. This might trigger adrenaline and make a child more active. Sometimes, falling adrenaline levels bring on a period of decreased activity.
A number of studies have shown a relationship between artificial colorings and hyperactivity. On the other hand, some studies do not show any effect of colorings on children's behavior. At least for now, the effect of food colorings remains another controversial issue.
Regardless of the true impact of sugar on children's activity level, remember that sugar remains the major culprit in Tooth decay. Limit the amount of processed sugars that your children eat as much as possible.
Giving your child plenty of fiber in their diet to keep adrenaline levels more constant. For breakfast, fiber is found in oatmeal, shredded wheat, berries, bananas, whole-grain pancakes. For lunch, fiber is found in whole-grain breads, peaches, grapes, and other fresh fruits.
Provide "quiet time" so that children can learn to calm themselves at home. If your child cannot sit still when other children of his or her age can, or if he or she cannot control impulsive behavior, seek a professional evaluation.

Davorin Jenko (nacido como Martin Jenko; Dvorje, 9 de noviembre de 1835 - Liubliana, 25 de noviembre de 1914) fue un compositor esloveno. Se le considera el padre de la música romántica nacional eslovena. Entre otras canciones, compuso la melodía del himno nacional serbio "Bože pravde", el antiguo himno nacional esloveno "Naprej, zastava Slave" y la popular canción serbia y montenegrina "Onamo, 'namo!".

Biografía
Nació en el pueblo de Dvorje como Martin Jenko, en lo que entonces era el Imperio Austríaco. Después de graduarse de la escuela secundaria en Trieste, se fue a Viena, donde estudió derecho. Fundó la Sociedad Coral Eslovena, patrocinada por el político liberal Valentin Zarnik.

En 1862, se trasladó a la ciudad de Pančevo en el sur de Voivodina, donde trabajó como director de coro de la Iglesia Ortodoxa Serbia. Más tarde se trasladó a Belgrado, donde trabajó como compositor en el Teatro Nacional de Serbia, donde se volvería director. Allí compone la melodía de más de 80 obras como "Đido", "Seoska lola", "Potjera", "Vračara", "Pribislav i Božana", "Markova sablja" y "Bože pravde", que más tarde se convirtió en el himno nacional serbio. También compuso varias oberturas de conciertos como "Kosovo", "Milán", "Srpkinja", "Aleksandar". En los años sesenta del siglo XIX se convirtió en uno de los primeros compositores de la música romántica eslovena.
Jenko fue nombrado entre los primeros cuatro miembros de la Academia de Artes de la Real Academia de Ciencias de Serbia, por el rey Milan I de Serbia el 5 de abril de 1887.

Vivió en Serbia hasta 1897, cuando se mudó a Liubliana, donde falleció. Fue enterrado en el cementerio de Žale en el distrito de Bežigrad.

Obras
Durante su vida, Jenko compuso varias piezas tanto en esloveno como en serbio. Escribió la primera opereta serbia y compuso el himno nacional serbio, basada en la letra de Jovan Đorđević.

La mayoría de sus piezas eslovenas fueron compuestas en Viena. En 1860, compuso la música de la canción patriótica Naprej, zastava slave escrita por su primo Simon Jenko. También compuso varios otros poemas patrióticos eslovenos, que más tarde se convirtieron en una parte crucial del canon nacional esloveno.

Moreland Hills is a village in eastern Cuyahoga County, Ohio, United States. The population was 3,466 at the 2020 census. It is an affluent suburb of the Cleveland metropolitan area.

History
In 1815, settlement began near the point where State Route 87 crosses the Chagrin River. Orange Township was established in 1820 and became known for its steam sawmills, cheese factories and farms. The village, which in 1831 was still part of Orange Township, was the birthplace of James A. Garfield, the 20th President of the United States. In 1897, the Cleveland-Chagrin Falls Railway spurred residential development in the area as it served as a commuter line to employment opportunities in Cleveland.

In the early 20th century, Orange Township was divided into five municipalities, Moreland Hills, Hunting Valley, Orange Village, Pepper Pike and Woodmere. Moreland Hills was incorporated as a village in 1929, encompassing the southeast quadrant of the original Orange Township.  Moreland Hills adopted a village charter in 1972, defining the municipal corporation with a mayor-council form of government.

What is known as the Orange Conference in the history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) took place from October 25–26, 1831, in what is now Moreland Hills. It occurred at the home of Serenes Burnett, located at the southeast corner of today's Ohio Route 87 and Chagrin River Road (not the house that now occupies the site). The three leading figures in the church at that time, Joseph Smith, Sidney Rigdon, and Oliver Cowdery were in attendance.

Moreland Hills is home to state historical landmark Hiram House, the country's second settlement house after Hull House in Chicago. Hiram House moved its operations from Cleveland to its current site at Harvard Road and State Route 91 in the 1940s.

You know that horrible moment when your daughter pours your entire one litre bottle of brand new and slightly expensive shampoo down the drain in the shower? No? Possibly just me then! Thankfully, the very next day I received a hair care hamper from Harley Street Hair Clinic. The hamper included more bottles of shampoo than I knew what to do with! Although thankfully it meant that my hair wasn't greasy for long!
My absolute favourite product from those we were sent is the Korres shampoo. It leaves my hair feeling completely clean and with a gorgeous shine. It also smells delightful too! The Neal's Yard Orange Flower shampoo also smells amazing and I have even had a comment on my hair smelling good when I was on the school run.
Sadly I haven't been able to use the Neal's Yard Rosemary and Cedarwood Hair Treatment as it contains lavender which I'm allergic to. I will make sure I give it to someone as a present! Harley Street Hair Clinic specialises in hair transplants and clients include Wayne Rooney. To find out more about Harley Street Hair Clinic, check out their website.
Disclosure: I was sent these products for the purpose of this post. All opinions are my own and are honest and fair.

Long before the popular television show was created, Curtis Johnson was called the "dog whisperer" by friends and family. When neighbors had dog problems or needed training advice they looked to Curtis for help. He began working informally with a few dogs from the block, and soon he could be seen walking a large group of neighborhood dogs around Lake Harriet and stopping with the pack at Java Jack's coffee shop for a post-walk cool down. When Java Jack's customers started leaving notes for him requesting help with their dogs, he knew it was time to go pro.
Curtis was raised with an ever-present menagerie of dogs and cats, starting with a Siberian Husky his father brought home after starting a Lutheran church in Alaska, the first of many Huskies the family would adopt.
Although he has lived throughout the country and had a variety of careers, one constant for Curtis has been his love of dogs of all sizes and types. Curtis and his family reside in southwest Minneapolis, with ready access to lakes, parkways and abundant open spaces.

Getting healthy is a popular New Year's resolution, fitness instructors have advice on how to stick with it
By Matt Hoffman / Health Reporter
Contributors: Carlos Castillo / Video Journalist
Published January 17, 2023 at 11:31 AM PST
Some of the most popular new year's resolutions are ones about getting in shape —whether that is eating healthier or joining a gym. Not everyone will stick with it, but fitness instructors say creating a longterm goal and being part of a community are ways to help people get fit.
"I think (January is) always a good time to reset your goals for the year," said fitness instructor Andra Valencia. "Maybe we ate too much from the holidays and want to get rid of the winter fun we've had and get started on a fresh new page."
Valencia leads a class at San Diego Oasis called cardio drumming. It involves drumsticks and large inflated exercise balls, while dancing to music.
RELATED: Time is fleeting. Here's how to stay on track with New Year's goals
"We're using the whole body and we're engaging all the muscles in the body — so it's a great full body workout," Valencia said.
Earlier this month Valencia was promoting her class at Oasis' "Fitness Palooza" — where seniors looking to get in shape tried a variety of exercise classes including soul line dancing and zumba gold. Valencia said when it comes to new year's resolutions to get fit, choose something that is going to be fun.
"If it feels like it's a chore and if it feels like you're really struggling to get out and do something — just pick something to keep you moving," she said.
Lisa Garvey from Santee came to check out the different classes. She was there on a new year's resolution to get in shape.
RELATED: Sitting all day can be deadly. 5-minute walks can offset harms
"My husband passed away last year and I had been a caregiver for many years and I thought, 'I have to take care of myself now,'" Garvey said.
Garvey said she has tried gyms in the past, but they were not for her.
"It wasn't an environment that was much fun for me," she said. "I kind of like the camaraderie of the class, people are very supportive here and I kind of like that."
It is that sense of community that fitness instructor and personal trainer Russell Rowe said is key for longterm results. He also said it should not feel like a chore.
"If you can make it enjoyable — like bring music with you, talk to friends, go on a nice hike where the scenery is beautiful," Rowe said. "And do something that doesn't require you to drive too far — like convenience is a huge thing too — it's something that allows people to stick with their exercise."
Rowe said this time of year is especially busy for his personal training business.
"Because of new years resolutions of course," he said. "People eat a little bit too much over Christmas — don't exercise as much — they're more socializing, having fun and then they're like, 'Oh I gained a few pounds so it's time to get back in shape.'"
Rowe says pairing a New Year's resolution to get fit with a long-term goal helps people stay motivated. He also said people should not expect results overnight.

"As a personal trainer you try to not get people to focus on the weight so much as the behavioral changes that will bring the weight off gradually, naturally — so you're looking more at lifestyle changes," he said. "As opposed to trying doing some quick-fix thing cause then mentally it discourages you if you get on the scale and the scale isn't moving yet."
The new year is also when local gyms see a lot of new members.
"January is definitely the busiest time of the year for us — we typically start the year with an incentive or a promotion to make it even easier to come," said Teri Maass, senior director of the Y experience at the YCMA of San Diego County.
The YMCA does much more than fitness, but their 14 locations across the county all have gyms and pools. Less than two weeks into the new year, they have had 2,600 new members sign up.
"I just think it's just the year of hope," Maass said. "People are hopeful for new things this year in 2023 — maybe habits they haven't had a chance to get to in the last couple of years."
Maass said over the next nine months they expect about half of new members to drop off. They ran a promotion in January for new members and are holding a challenge next month to help people stick with their fitness goals. At the Y, it is also about creating that sense of community.
"We want to build a relationship with you so you want to stay," Maass said. "We want to help you find a connection with your group exercise instructor, your swim instructor, other people in the class — so the reason you stay isn't because you have to, but because you want to."
Fitness instructors maintain people do not need to be part of a class or gym to start get fit, changing diet habits and taking small steps like going on a regular walk or hike can also help.

The future of Edtech in Africa
Daniel Mwesigwa 12/08/2013
When I was in elementary school, there was a controversy about these little devices called calculators. People said,"Oh, kids aren't going to learn arithmetic!" They turned out to be true although students could probably add and subtract but doing long division was a long lost skill. The calculators didn't go. The perception of education, since that disruption, has never been the same.
In Africa, education accounts for the majority 35% of Africa's middle class. The middle class is expected to expand exponentially because of the vast majority of the youth –who account for 80% of the population– are currently enrolled in school.
Edtech(Educational technology) in Africa is more than a decade old. It started in the late 1990's when most parts of Africa were getting their first internet connection. Where as institutions of higher learning championed this project through use of wikis, blogs and the like, elementary schools were employing offline study guides such as encarta encyclopedia, academic computer games. Amid that change, students were sneaking in the much criticized little demons — calculators. Arguably, most of these academic aides were donations from the international community. In tandem, e-learning platforms developed in universities where notes were availed for distribution and also meant to bolster out of class interaction amongst students and lecturers.
The uncertainty of change loomed in the last 10 years. Since then, the disruptor(calculator) was disrupted by an internet giant — Google. The penetration of the market by mobile devices, improvement in connectivity and a continued attitude change towards technology have been pivotal towards this change. There is contention of how the search giant is making many students stupidier by the day. If you define intelligence as the ability to blab a couple of crammed random facts, then, you may be right. However, if you are to relate them to who we are — the dot com generation — then we are more intelligent than ever before. We don't need to fill up our precious neocortical real estate with lots of facts. We carry access to all the information humanity needs in the palm of our hands. These empowering tools are not going away any time soon.
The ubiquity of social media has been embraced by education. Learning is social that is why Nigeria's StudentCircle is scoring big. It avails resources for students in Universities, high schools to share knowledge and course material in a more social way. Also, Uganda's BrainShare seeks to provide an fully-fledged online environment where most of the academic resources are provided at a freemium or subscription basis. The influence of Massive Open Online Courses on the international scene has furthered influenced these social startups into making strategic partnerships with established academic institutions to provide accreditation for the tasks completed. Mxit's bookly brings an e-book experience for its users to read and share content. StorySpaces empowers the youth in Kenya to use digital tools and social media to leverage empowerment.
At least every leading university on the continent has a an e-learning platform(whether functional or not). However, there hasn't been serious effort to disrupt the main system through these platforms. Uganda's Virtual University provides all courses online for it's students. Also, efforts have been extended into moving e-learning platform to high/secondary schools for example MTN's project of availing academic resources for high school students where they are marked online.
In Rwanda, MIT professor's visionary One Laptop Per Child project has registered massive success as a tool for helping kids study. Arguably that is why it has been adopted by Kenya–at least 1.3 million laptops will be availed to form one students free of charge. The interactivity these entry level laptops bring about is totally worth it. Further, the introduction of the tablet as an academic tool is perhaps going to be the greatest catalyst for edtech in Africa. The easily chargeable and portable tablets(ebook readers or kindles) are a great tool for study. Kenya is growing steadily with the conversion of many academic resources to digital format. An eco-system is being built in pursuit of online education excellence. Organisations such as; kytabu, ekitabu, eLimu offer a cheap access to readership to rather inaccessible or even expensive books that may not be readily available to the students.
What is the future of education without gamification? Game psychology puts it that game players are better problem solvers compared to their non-gaming colleagues. This is because of the design of games that requires quick decision making. Problem solving is therefore simulated in real life. Ghana's game studio created LetiGames; a game that has some of Africa's greatest warriors in one setting and this could promote study of social sciences and history of the fast fading African culture. Uganda's My Revision Guide is a game that rewards a student with points for every academic task they complete in the game setting. The points are then retrieved to gain access to more academic resources.
The rapid establishment of hackerlabs and open spaces in Africa have brought about an "out-of-the-building" experience with students where they get hands on with academic resources especially the practical bit of it. Right from hardware prototyping, business development, skills acquisition in a lean way.
Much as the Edtech revolution started at the beginning of the new millennium. It suffered slow motion growth because of the obsolete systems in place. However, the improvement in the avenues of accessing content through smartphones and tablets, ubiquity of better internet services and stakeholders' willingness to participate and the general improvement of infrastructure. Importantly, the entrepreneurial abilities to exploit Edtech, through providing more accessible and better solutions as well as promoting education as part of a social good.

David Okwii says:
Daniel, it's interesting to see what the entrepreneurs and innovators are doing in paving way for a new approach in education in the African continent. However, close examination indicates that all these solutions are student centric living out one of the most fundamental people in the equation — the educators or teachers.
Teachers are a little bit reluctant to leave their comfort zones and adopt new methods of teaching as they cling to old and obsolete methods while the students are adaptive and adventurous.
These new innovations and tools should provide attractive incentives for teachers to adapt them. These in turn encourage their students to use these new tools.

The Ink Spots: Pop Vocal Group with Musical Style Leading to R&B and Rock and Roll
The Ink Spots, a popular African-American pop vocal group during the 1930s and 40s, was noted for having a musical style that led to R&B, rock and roll and the doo-wop music. Their music was appreciated by people from all walks of life. Even white communities played their songs due to the musical prowess of the lead singer, Bill Kenny.
The Ink Spots generally started their songs with a guitar intro followed by tenor singer Bill Kenny singing the lyrics of the whole song. After Kenny finished singing, the bass would either recite the first half of the song, the bridge of the song, or say something that was not part of the song almost in a free form manner, commonly using the words "honey child" or "honey babe" to express his affection for his love interest in the song.
Between 1940 and 1949, The Ink Spots recorded 30 hits on the US Pop Charts with as many as 16 reaching the top 10. The group's first #1 hit was "We Three (My Echo, My Shadow and Me)," which was first recorded in 1940. In 1944, The Ink Spots teamed up with Ella Fitzgerald and recorded "I'm Making Believe," and "Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall."
In 1989, the group consisting of Bill Kenny, Deek Watson, Charlie Fuqua and Hoppy Jones were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and in 1999, they were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame.

Peter Robbins, the Voice of the Animated Peanuts Character "Charlie Brown" Arrested on 5 Felony Charges for Making Death Threats and Stalking
I guess we all missed the Peanuts special … You're a Felon Charlie Brown
Suddenly Charlie Brown having Lucy pull the football out from under him as he is trying to kick it or him getting a lump of coal at Halloween sounds rather trivial. The lovable failure might have outdone himself this time. Peter Robbins, who as a child was the voice of Peanuts character 'Charlie Brown' was arrested on five felony charges and is scheduled to be arraigned on Wednesday. Robbins was stopped at the San Ysidro Port of Entry between San Diego and Tijuana. The 56 year old Robbins was charged with four felony counts of making a threat to cause death or great bodily injury and one felony count of stalking. I must have missed the 'Peanuts' special … You're a felon Charlie Brown. Robbins is being held on $550,000 bail.
I guess Charlie Brown should have spent more time in psychiatric help or paid more than 5 cents a session
Robbins was arrested shortly after 8 p.m. Sunday at the San Ysidro Port of Entry, said Angelica de Cima, spokeswoman for U.S. Customs and Border Protection. He was driving a silver 2006 Mercedes-Benz C230 when a border officer referred him to an area for a more thorough examination, she said. He was the only person in the car at the time.
A systems check determined that Robbins was wanted by the San Diego County Sheriff's Department for a felony warrant for crimes against a person, De Cima said.
Jan Caldwell, a spokeswoman for the Sheriff's Department, said Tuesday night that she did not immediately have details about the warrant.
Robbins provided the voice of Charlie Brown in several "Peanuts" productions in the late 1960s, including the film "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" and television specials "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." The television shows remain popular today.
Damn, first the voice of Elmo and now Charlie Brown? Who's next, Barney the Dinosaur?

Fans of Two Worlds will no doubt be excited to know that Topware have now released a second trailer for Two Worlds II, presumably to coincide with the game previewing at next week's E3 2010. Those of us unable to attend E3 will have to hold off until September before getting our grubby mitts on the game but, for the time being, the trailer should at least satiate with a little bit of eye candy.
If any of the screenshots and in-game footage are any indication, Two Worlds II looks set to breathe new life into the much maligned series.
Featuring the all-new GRACE game engine, Two Worlds II seeks to offer an immersive blend of two of the most important role playing elements – strong atmosphere and dazzling visuals. Incorporating cutting-edge technology features such as Real Eye Adaptation, HD Dynamic Motion Capture, and Multi-Source Dynamic Lighting, the world of Antaloor comes alive like never before as a true role-player's paradise.

Distribution of Rhizobia in Leguminous Plants Surveyed by Phylogenetic Identification
Satoshi Matsumoto, Kiwamu Minamisawa, Takuma Gamou, Hiroshi Oyaizu
LIF - Ecological Developmental Adaptability Life Sciences
The distribution of rhizobia, bacteria which nodulate roots of leguminous plants, was surveyed for 91 species of the family Leguminoceae. One hundred and twenty-one strains of rhizobia were isolated, and 29 strains were obtained from culture collections. The total of 150 strains were classified based on their small subunit (ssu) ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences. The analyses of the partial sequences (157 bases from positions 1220 to 1377 in Escherichia coli numbering system) revealed the presence of three major groups which corresponded with the genera Rhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, and Azorhizobium and the presence of 17 varieties (eight varieties for the genus Rhizobium, eight for the genus Bradyrhizobium, and one for the genus Azorhizobium). Several phenotypic characteristics and DNA base compositions were determined for 27 representative strains from 17 varieties. Also, genomic relatedness among the 27 strains was estimated by DNA-DNA hybridization. The strains which were different in their ssu rRNA partial sequences never showed close relationships in DNA-DNA hybridization. Further, sequences covering most of ssu rRNA were compared among 17 representative strains of the 17 varieties including type strains of seven Rhizobium species, Bradyrhizobium japonicum and Azorhizobium caulinodans, and phylogenetic relationships among rhizobia were discussed. From phylogenetic analyses it is inferred that the nodulation genes transferred among rhizobia.

The Face Of Nike's 30th Anniversary 'Just Do It' Campaign Is Colin Kaepernick
Slaven VlasicGetty Images for Sports Illustrated
Kristin Clifford
Colin Kaepernick may not have been able to find a team to play for this season, but he managed to land a huge endorsement deal anyway. The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback has been tapped by Nike as the face of their 30th anniversary "Just Do It" according to Bleacher Report.
Believe in something, even if it means sacrificing everything. #JustDoIt pic.twitter.com/SRWkMIDdaO
— Colin Kaepernick (@Kaepernick7) September 3, 2018
Sports Illustrated reported that Nike has been paying Kaepernick all along, waiting for the right moment to drop the news that he was the new face of the campaign. Darren Rovell of ESPN first reported the news, and the tidbit. Nike signed Kaepernick in 2011 but he has not been used in a campaign for two years.
"We believe Colin is one of the most inspirational athletes of this generation, who has leveraged the power of sport to help move the world forward," Gino Fisanotti, Nike's vice president of brand for North America, told ESPN.
Kaepernick was playing for the 49ers in 2016 when he decided it was time to take a stand by not standing for the national anthem. Instead, he knelt during the customary rendition of the "Star-Spangled Banner" that is played before every NFL game. He did so in order to protest police brutality and systemic oppression against people of color.
"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," he told Steve Wyche of NFL Media about the decision two years ago. "To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."
Kaepernick's peaceful protest drew ire from many, who felt that it was disrespectful to the United States and members of the military. Even President Trump weighed in with some choice expletives for players who chose to kneel. Many other players in the league supporter Kaepernick. He was a free agent and has been unable to sign with a team since. A meeting with the Seattle Seahawks soured when he would not commit to standing for the national anthem.
Kaepernick filed a lawsuit against the NFL, alleging collusion. Recently, an arbitrator decided there is merit to his claim and it appears that he may get his day in court when the evidence is presented at trial.
Other athletes tapped for the 30th anniversary campaign include Serena Williams, LeBron James, and Odell Beckham Jr.

on development of ammonia terminal and storage facility at Port
Horisont Energi signs MOU with Koole Terminals
BOTLEK ROTTERDAM, the Netherlands – October 08, 2021 – Horisont Energi (EURONEXT: HRGI) and Koole Terminals B.V. (Koole Terminals), a leading independent liquid bulk storage company, today announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding to collaborate on the development of a terminal and storage facility at the Port of Rotterdam.
According to the agreement, Horisont Energi and Koole Terminals will explore the establishment of a strategic and collaborative relationship for storage of ammonia produced and shipped from Norway to Rotterdam. The agreement will also cover technical and commercial conceptual models for storage of ammonia products, services solutions and technologies for further distribution, to meet forecast demand in Northwest Europe. Koole Terminals has a storage capacity of over 4.1 million cubic meters and is connected to several transport modalities (i.e. ship, truck, rail and pipeline) with direct pipeline connections to core clients.
"I'm excited to announce this agreement. As Horisont Energi and our partners work towards developing Europe's first world-scale clean ammonia project, it is essential to establish relationships with key storage, handling and transport partners in the region, to ensure our clean ammonia can reach all potential clients."
Bjørgulf Haukelidsæter Eidesen, CEO of Horisont Energi.
Horisont Energi recently announced a cooperation agreement with Equinor and Vår Energi, the two largest offshore oil and gas producers in the Barents Sea region, on the joint development of the Barents Blue project, Europe's first large-scale production facility for blue ammonia. The Barents Blue project is based on using natural gas, clean water and renewable energy to produce clean ammonia, which is a key industrial gas used globally in the fertilizer and chemical sector and is a very efficient hydrogen carrier, making it one of the most promising fuels for decarbonization of parts of the maritime sector.
During the production process at the Barents Blue ammonia plant, more than 99 percent of the CO2 will be captured and permanently stored in the offshore Polaris reservoir below the seabed offshore Finnmark. Koole Terminals will play an important role in facilitating and supporting the distribution of ammonia from the Barents Blue production plant in Hammerfest, Northern Norway.
"We are eager to work with Horisont Energi to materialize their European distribution hub for blue ammonia. We consider ammonia as one of the important future liquid energy carriers, and as such this project fits very well with Koole's sustainable energy strategy."
John Kraakman, CEO of Koole Terminals.

During the production process, carbon will be captured and transported by ship to the Polaris reservoir for storage, with an estimated capacity in excess of 100 million tons below the seabed offshore Finnmark, which is equivalent to twice Norway's annual greenhouse gas emissions.


Sure, Canada was built on dreams and hard work, but it was also built on failure - mix-ups, mistakes, screw-ups, and boondoggles. Failing at things, and laughing about them, has long been a characteristic of our citizens.
Where else but in Canada would governments send farmers to land that couldn't be farmed? Where else would an argument over the metric system almost result in the death of hundreds? Who else but Canadians would march against non-existent enemies? Where else would lumberjacks be used to defend the borders?
Are there politicians better than ours at spending millions, against all odds and good advice, on things that just won't work? Is there any nation better at re-electing those politicians no matter what they do? What other country should adopt as its national slogan "If we don't laugh, we'll cry"?
Here are more of the things that seemed like a good idea at the time.

The Ramona Humane Society (RHS) reports our statistics on our website because we feel that transparency is an important part of being a contracted agency. In addition, we want our communities to understand the realities that we face as a shelter and the impact that our citizens can have on increasing adoption and decreasing euthanasia. We also believe early spay/neuter will reduce the number of unwanted animals entering the shelter. RHS is non-profit and an "open admission shelter" for 4 cities (Hemet, San Jacinto, Calimesa and Beaumont.) "Open admission shelter" means that we accept all animals from the cities that we serve whether they are aggressive, feral, old, sick, injured or underage.
Live Outcomes divided by shelter euthanasia equals Live Release Percentage or Save Rate.
*Owner Requested Euthanasias are not included in the calculation as we do not consider the animal impounded and this procedure is a humane service provided by RHS to the community and it's animals.
These are national estimates; the figures may vary from state to state.
We seek to Educate pet owners, and the population at large, about the needs of animals and the importance of responsible pet ownership.

World Renowned Chef Andrew Zimmern Cooks Up Partnership with INNOVA Disc Golf
August 3, 2016 Innova Discs 6438 0
Photo: Courtesy of The Travel Channel
Andrew Zimmern, the three-time James Beard Award winning TV personality, author, chef, and teacher, is universally regarded as one of the most versatile and knowledgeable personalities in the food world. Zimmern also happens to be an avid disc golfer and is partnering with INNOVA to be a Celebrity Ambassador for the brand.
Disc Golf is played much like traditional golf, only players throw specialized "discs" to navigate the course. Each hole is completed when the disc lands in a metal target that has strands of chains to catch the disc in flight. Disc golf rules, scoring, and etiquette are otherwise very similar to traditional golf. The object is to complete each hole, and ultimately the course, in the fewest number of throws.
INNOVA is excited that Zimmern is joining its growing family of Celebrity Ambassadors, and together they will introduce one of the world's most affordable, family-friendly outdoor activities through a series of outdoor festivals and events.
"As an avid disc golfer I'm thrilled to be associated with the number one brand in our sport. More importantly Innova has their heart in the right place, they believe in promoting the sport so everyone wins, even their competitors. For Innova, this isn't about anything other than growing the sport via affiliations that make sense. Innova is also committed to my biggest goal which is to put live music, a disc golf pro-am, food tents and trucks, and instructional support and equipment sales together here in Minnesota for a day devoted to charity, social justice and having fun playing my favorite sport."
– Andrew Zimmern
INNOVA supports a network of official ambassadors, many of whom are experts in variety of promotional activity including event management, sponsorship, clinics, course design, trade shows, and other grass roots-oriented promotion. There are also celebrity ambassadors, like Zimmern, who use their public platforms to share their passion for the game.
"We are delighted to have Andrew join the INNOVA family of ambassadors. Together we will increase our reach exponentially in the effort to share this wonderful outlet for healthy, outdoor recreation."

I attend school in Durham, North Carolina and the natural scene is up and coming but very limited. A lot of African American girls on my school's campus are going natural and embracing their natural hair. I feel very comfortable in Durham wearing my hair naturally even though it is not the "in thing" right now.
I transitioned for 6 months and cut my relaxer in March 2008. During my transition, I wore my hair in a ponytail and flat ironed it once in a while. Keeping up with two textures was a lot of work for me so I decided to go ahead with the big chop. Also, I wanted to know (for myself) that I could rock short hair and feel good about myself.
Definitely! I feel so true to myself. I toyed with the idea of going natural several times but would always get a relaxer at around the 3 month mark. The last time I got a relaxer, I felt so defeated as the nasty fumes hit my nostrils and I knew for sure that would be the last time…hopefully. And it was! The most welcomed surprise are the random conversations I have with other African American women about hair, products and daily routines. I'm usually don't talk to strangers but I love talking to new people about hair!
No longer smelling the "perm smell" when I get caught out in the rain…no rotten eggs here baby!
I try to do my hair myself. I wear a wash & go alot. For that style, I just wash and condition, add moisturizer and a few bobby pins and out the door. I also two-strand twist which is pretty self-explanatory. My new thing is experimenting with cornrows in the front. Hopefully my friends will let me practice my braiding skills on them.
Don't look at hair journals and covet someone else's hair. You won't know what your hair is like until you are actually natural. Don't get too caught up in the 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b hype… You will send yourself crazy and at the end of the day you still have only the hair that is on your head! Also, do the big chop when YOU are ready because when you look in the mirror you will see yourself looking back at you (only with short hair). Don't get discouraged and label your hair as unruly/bad/super duper nappy/etc. if you try a few products and they make your hair dry or crunchy. I had to shop around ALOT before I found what works for me. Don't be quick to spend your money (especially in these times) on expensive salon only products. My BEST products are the ones I make myself (like the homemade mixture), and my shea butter and coconut oil mix.

Astrobotic to Give NASA up to $12M in Payload Delivery to the Moon
Organizations Responding to NASA's Lunar Payload RFI Who Book Their First Mission with Astrobotic, Will Get a Second Mission to the Moon for Free
Carolyn Pace
Pittsburgh – Astrobotic announces today a historic, new dollar for dollar matching program that will provide free payload deliveries to the Moon. For every payload selected by NASA to fly on Astrobotic's first mission, Astrobotic will provide an additional flight to payload providers on the company's second mission at no charge. The second mission is currently scheduled to fly in 2021, and Astrobotic will match payload reservations up to $12 million. This new cost-sharing program is in response to the agency's RFI call for small lunar surface payloads.
"For too long, NASA's science and exploration programs were forced to operate in a one-and-done paradigm," said John Thornton, CEO of Astrobotic. "Past missions to the Moon have unveiled incredible findings, but rapid follow up with additional measurement and observation was impossible. With this new public-private cost-share program, Astrobotic will speed up the pace of discovery."
This matching program will provide scientists and engineers the opportunity to fly the same payload twice, or fly a new payload that takes advantage of findings from the first mission. This approach aligns with the nature of science and exploration investigations, which need follow-ups after new findings are uncovered.
"As the most advanced and credible lunar delivery company in the world, Astrobotic is thrilled to offer NASA and its payload partners a service that matches their needs and fundamentally improves how space science and exploration investigations get done," said John Thornton.
This announcement comes as Astrobotic continues to work closely with its industry leading partners on the development of its Peregrine Lunar Lander. Astrobotic is the only lunar delivery company to have assembled a sophisticated and credible team of partners from the public and private sector. These partners include NASA, who is providing Astrobotic access to some of the best spacecraft engineers and facilities in the world, as part of NASA's Lunar CATALYST Program; Airbus DS, who brings world-class spacecraft experience in human spaceflight and exploration and leverages previous lander development work with the European Space Agency; Aerojet Rocketdyne, who is supplying Peregrine's propulsion system, featuring next generation space engine technology; and Deutsche Post DHL Group, the world's leading mail and logistics company, who is the "Official Logistics Provider for Astrobotic's First Mission to the Moon."

[Astrobotic Technology is a lunar logistics company that delivers payloads to the Moon for companies, governments, universities, nonprofits, and individuals. The company's spacecraft accommodates multiple customers on a single flight, offering lunar delivery at an industry-defining price of $1.2 Million per kilogram. Astrobotic is a partner with NASA through a Space Act Agreement under the Lunar CATALYST program, and has 22 prior and ongoing NASA contracts. The company has 10 payload delivery deals in place for its first mission and dozens of customer negotiations for upcoming missions. The company is also pursuing the Google Lunar XPRIZE with partner Carnegie Mellon University. Astrobotic was spun out of Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute in 2007, and is headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA.]

Thomson waits for ruling on bid to represent Scotland
By David Hands, Rugby Correspondent
Friday April 04 2003, 1.00am, The Times
THE International Rugby Board (IRB), whose council meets next week in Dublin, has a lot on its plate at the moment, with the decision over which country will host the 2007 World Cup to be announced next Thursday. But Scotland will be anxious to hear whether the board's game regulations committee gives a favourable verdict to Paul Thomson's application to play in dark blue.
Thomson, 28, has been outstanding for the Borders and hopes to qualify through his Scottish ancestry, but he has fallen foul of the eligibility regulations. The former Auckland loose-head prop was chosen among the replacements for New Zealand A in 1999, against the New Zealand Barbarians, and when new rules were made over eligibility in 2000, in the wake of the
