Andrea & Bryce are getting married!
I am so in love with these gorgeous fall color, and super sweet couple!
A little background about how this came to be: Andrea was a friend of my lovely cousin Rachel, and her mom, Julie, contacted me about taking her senior photos. At the time I was pretty dead set that I never wanted to take senior photos! Which is hilarious considering it's one of my 2 favorite things to shoot now, and I have to give some of that credit to Andrea! She was so sweet and we got great photos and that experience made me think that I could REALLY love shooting seniors. Last year, I took her brother Jordan's senior photos ( also amazing to work with) and I just took a few photos of her beautiful niece! I REALLY love getting to see clients again. It makes me so happy to play the teeniest part in being there for some of their most special days!
Andrea contacted me and asked if I'd take their wedding photos, I very quickly replied "YES!!" and we talked a little about their wedding and fall engagement session plans! When I schedule fall session, I always wait to see what if the prettiest when the time comes, and our property had some gorgeous areas so we planned on that. Now. Fall leaves have been a let down the past few years. And our property isn't usually the most gorgeous, but THIS year, the colors have been vibrant and gorgeous!
I LOVED getting to spend some time with Andrea and Bryce! I said "Hi!!" to both of them as they were getting out of the car and the first thing Andrea said was "We are SO excited to be here!". They are BOTH so sweet and happy! I really love their smiling and laughing photos!
Bryce & Andrea, thank you SO much for asking me to photograph your wedding, it means the world to me! I can't wait for 2021!! |
A well-known fact is that Pride is a very bright parade and those who celebrate it will want to make themselves seen. You can help your clients achieve the perfect look for Pride by taking inspiration from the Pride flag. So how can you give your client the nail look that they are after?
With the fantastic range of colours available you can guarantee your client to give them the best look possible. There are a few ways to use a gradient as inspiration; you could do a rainbow gradient going down through the colours from red through to purple on every nail so that they are matching. Alternatively, you could have a gradient in a different colour on each nail going through the rainbow spectrum, so one nail would be in a red gradient then the next in orange and so on. This stunning design is sure to get your clients recommending you and your salon.
Your client may want a simpler design, you could achieve this by painting each nail in a different colour of the rainbow. This will create a bright and bold look that is sure to please your client. The benefit of gel polish is that it has an opaque finish giving your client a solid colour payoff. Whether they want a strong colour hue or a more pastel vibe, you can guarantee to give them what they are looking for.
Who said that a French manicure had to be a blush nail with a white tip? You can add the wow factor to this well-known look by creating a multi-coloured version. Whether you choose to do the base in one colour and the tip in another, for example, a red nail with an orange tip or if you choose to use the same colours in different hues such as a lilac base and a plum coloured tip. Whatever you and the client decide you can ensure that their nails are going to pop.
So get online today and see what Chroma Gel have to offer at https://www.chromagel.co.uk/ you will not be disappointed. |
Grace Church MK Sunday Service
April 21 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am
Join Grace Church MK on Sundays at 10:30am at The Chrysalis Theatre MK.
What to Expect
Their Sunday services are times to connect with each other and focus on Jesus. They invite you to join in as much as you want to worship, pray, and share truth from the Bible. They’re a big family and so want you to relax and feel at home.
During this time, they are full of expectation for God to speak to us. Individuals often pray for healing, share what we sense God might be saying and love to see Jesus changing lives and working for our good and blessing.
During the service, take up an offering but this is aimed at regular members and so if you are visiting they do not expect you to contribute.
At the end of the meeting they serve hot drinks along with a range of biscuits and fresh fruit. They would love to get to know you, pray with you, and answer any questions that you may have – in short it’s time to be family and enjoy catching up with one another.

This week the critical issues in Australia will be how investors respond to the uncertainty created by Omicron and headlines on Wednesday that will confirm the Australian economy shrunk in the third quarter of 2021.
The news that the economy shrunk in Q3 should not come as too much of a surprise after extended lockdowns in NSW, Vic, and ACT. For the record, the market is looking -2.7% fall in the Q3 - not as bad as initially feared after the release of stronger than expected Capex and Construction works surveys last week.
Now, to the arrival of Omicron last week, which followed a series of worsening Covid headlines from out of Europe. Recently a friend of mine pointed me in the direction of a podcast called The Future of Vaccines with the CEO of Moderna, Stéphane Bancel. Given last week's developments, it's well worth a listen. The link is here for those that are interested.
Omicron carries many mutations in its spike protein, raising concerns that existing vaccines may be less effective and has higher transmissibility. However, thanks to the platform of mRNA technology, and as outlined in the podcast, a vaccine for Omicron will likely be available within months.
Providing hospitalisations and fatalities don’t rise significantly in the meantime, it is likely that as the panic subsides and calmer heads prevail, the market will recover lost ground. Evidence of this is already demonstrated today by the ASX200 trading at 7261, just 18 points lower from Friday's close at 7279.
From here, while it's impossible to rule out a test of the psychologically important 7000 region, the ASX200’s rapid rebound today above the 200 day moving average at 7220 today has been impressive.
Nonetheless, to increase conviction that the Omicron correction is complete and the uptrend has resumed, the ASX200 must reclaim Friday's breakdown level at 7350ish.

George F. Kneller — son of Worcester and Clark University. Your career has been as distinctive as it is distinguished. Great universities have shaped your mind — A.B., Clark University; M.A., London University; Ph.D., Yale University; Litt.D., Sheffield University; LL.D., Heidelberg University. Great mentors have informed your vision. The idea of a union of education and anthropology, as you have said, first caught your imagination when your studies of education in Nationalist Socialist Germany brought you to grips with questions of race and culture. Your mentor then was Bronislaw Malinowski, and in this collaboration began the development of
a new and profoundly significant interdiscipline — education and cultural anthropology.
Your world, however, has not been confined to ideas. As a public high school teacher; a master in private schools; a specialist in education in Latin America for the United States Office of Education, Professor of Education at Yale University, and at the University of California, Los Angeles, you have shown us a way of embracing the polarities of theory and practice.
… a man may carefully describe a particular object
or living thing, seeking to explain that “certain
something” that constitutes its essence, but in
order to know if it is genuinely alive, or real,
we must personally have an experience with it.
George Kneller, you have been authentically involved as a scholar, teacher, and human being. Clark welcomes you home with pride and affection.
Mr. President, I request that the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa, now be conferred upon George F. Kneller. |
- This event has ended.
Members of the Clark community are invited to join the New England Botanic Garden and the City of Worcester for an Arbor Day Festival at University Park. This free community event will include a pop-up marketplace, food trucks, music, local community organizations, and free science and art activities. Clark HERO Fellows also will be on hand to share their research.

The difficulty of measuring content performance
John Wanamaker (1838 – 1922), an American merchant and marketing pioneer, is famously quoted as saying, “Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half”. In those days a marketer relied on advertisements in newspapers and on billboards and it was difficult to measure their effectiveness until techniques for gathering measurable data on them were developed. The most famous work on the subject was published in 1922 by Claude Hopkins called “Scientific Advertising” in which he described how he was able to measure the effectiveness of his marketing campaigns. Hopkins was placing coupons in newspapers that readers were encouraged to cut out and send in the mail to take up an offer.
He was then able to count the number of responses he got and he could test different advertisements to see which ones worked best. By a continual process of testing and measuring campaigns in one city or state until he was sure he had an advertisement that was effective he could be reasonably sure that it would work just as well across the entire country. This type of campaign is known as “direct response” marketing and pay per click campaigns in Google Adwords and Bing Ads use the same principles today because it works so successfully.
In fact, Claude Hopkins’ approach was so successful that David Ogilvy, one of the founders of the advertising agency Ogilvy & Mather, said, “Nobody should be allowed to have anything to do with advertising until he has read this book seven times. It changed the course of my life.”

Indigenous Perspectives on History and Today
Columbus’ “discovery” of America continues to be a source of amusement to most Indigenous people, who wonder how someone can discover a place already occupied by millions of people for thousands of years.
History textbooks unfortunately tend to ignore the cooperation, friendship and agreements that occurred between Indigenous nations and Europeans. These textbooks often emphasize the conflicts, which lead to the inaccurate idea that Indigenous people are particularly warlike.
If these textbooks give the impression that Indigenous history began with European contact, they also imply that Indigenous history ended in the late 1800s.
But Indigenous people have not disappeared.
- The Indigenous population is among the youngest and fastest-growing populations in the United States.
- More than 60,000 Indigenous people live in Michigan.
- Michigan is home to 12 federally recognized tribal nations as well as representatives from many other tribal nations.
Today, important issues such as tribal sovereignty, treaty rights, tribal court jurisdiction, gaming laws and tribal taxation are addressed in the nation’s courts, the U.S. Congress and state legislatures. Indigenous communities self-government precedes the Constitution and also is recognized by the Constitution and through the many treaties between the United States and Indigenous tribes.
Understand Indigenous cultural traditions
The technologies, economies, languages and political systems of Indigenous people were as diverse as their European counterparts. Indigenous peoples histories before European contact were as colorful and exciting as those of other nations. For these reasons, it is impossible to identify one Indigenous culture.
However, some beliefs and traditions are common to many nations. A special relationship with nature is an important feature of Indigenous culture, religion and society.
Most Indigenous religions/spiritual beliefs view the earth as the mother to all things. Since all creatures and plants depend on the earth for food, clothing, shelter and water, we are bound together as kin. If the earth is our mother, then all things upon her are our brothers and sisters. This relationship of respect for the environment and living in harmony with it instead of trying to dominate it is a widespread and fundamental belief among Indigenous people.
Look into the Michigan tribes
There are three major tribal groups in Michigan today: the Chippewa (Ojibwe), Ottawa (Odawa), and Potawatomi (Bodawotomi). They comprise what is called the Three Fires Council.
Although these three tribes have similar cultures and share the same territory, there still are some historical differences.
In Michigan, the Chippewa people occupied the eastern half of the Lower Peninsula and most of the Upper Peninsula.
Members of the Chippewa tribes:
- Used the resources of the Great Lakes as well as inland lakes, rivers and streams.
- Moved their villages to follow the fish and game.
- Developed a skill for treating illnesses using medicinal plants.
- Engaged in fur trading with the French and English and had some involvement in European colonial conflicts.
One hallmark of Ottawa life is the birch bark canoe. In Michigan, the Ottawa people occupied the western half of the 0Lower Peninsula.
Members of the Ottawa tribes:
- Were seminomadic people who walked the land and explored the Great Lakes to gather wild rice, net fish, trap both large and small game, and hunt large game such as moose, deer and caribou.
- Adapted well to the fur-trading economy through solid trading skills and craftsmanship.
- Avoided major military entanglements with the European colonial powers competing with each other for North American land and resource dominance.
The Potawatomi tribes inhabited the southwest corner of what is now Michigan in the areas of Kalamazoo and the St. Joseph River. They moved there deliberately from more northern regions to take advantage of the milder southern climate.
Members of the Potawatomi tribes:
- Shared many traits with the Chippewa and the Ottawa but lived a more sedentary lifestyle.
- Established a stable food supply and a level of political unity unusual for Great Lakes tribes at that time.
- Developed a favorable reputation for medicinal herb gardens in addition to growing the staples of corn, beans and squash.
- Bay Mills Indian Community (Ojibwe)
- Grand Traverse Bay Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians
- Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians
- Hannahville Potawatomi Indian Community
- Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi
- Keweenaw Bay Indian Community (Ojibwe)
- Lac Vieux Desert Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians
- Little River Band of Ottawa Indians
- Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians
- Pokagon Band of Potawatomi
- Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe
- Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians |

The Designing Libraries for the Twenty-First Century IX Conference, which was to have been held at Temple University in Philadelphia on October 18-20, 2020, is postponed out of concern for participants’ and presenters’ health and safety. A new date has not yet been set.
A major aspect of the Designing Libraries conferences is the experience of visiting new and/or renovated libraries, and the planning group is delighted that the next conference will be held at the stunning and state-of-the-art Charles Library at Temple University https://www.temple.edu/about/libraries/charles . In addition to experiencing library spaces, the participants at the conference, which include architects, designers, planners, academic administrators, faculty, librarians, and information technologists, find the informal interactions at the conference venue very valuable. For those reasons, we will not be offering a virtual conference as a substitute but will defer the conference to a later date when everyone can feel secure in making travel plans and attending conferences.
We will announce the new date when available via listservs.

In our commitment to broaden our offerings continually, we are introducing a new project addition - Aerodrome Finance. Aerodrome Finance is a next-generation automated market maker (AMM) designed to serve as Base's primary liquidity hub
This article explores Crypto Automated Market Makers (AMMs) and introduces Aerodrome, an AMM serving as the liquidity hub for the Base blockchain. We'll cover how Aerodrome Finance works, its unique features, and its native token AERO. We'll delve into AERO tokenomics, token statistics, and the key features of Aerodrome Finance. Finally, we'll provide steps to buy and trade the AERO token.
What Is AMM and How Does a Crypto AMM Work?
An automated market maker (AMM) is a type of decentralized exchange that uses pooled liquidity and pricing algorithms to facilitate automated crypto trading without order books. Traders swap between assets in liquidity pools, with prices adjusting based on supply and demand. Aerodrome is an example of an AMM. Aerodrome Finance is a next-generation automated market maker designed to serve as the central liquidity hub and trading platform on the Base blockchain.
What Is Aerodrome Finance?
Aerodrome Finance is the central trading and liquidity marketplace on the Base blockchain. It is a next-generation automated market maker (AMM) designed to serve as Base's primary liquidity hub, combining a powerful liquidity incentive engine, a vote-lock governance model, and a user-friendly experience. Aerodrome inherits the latest features from Velodrome V2, a previous AMM protocol.
What makes Aerodrome Finance unique is its innovative incentive structure and governance model. It rewards participants who contribute to the protocol's sustainable growth, with 100% of the protocol's incentives and fees going to veAERO voters. These voters lock their AERO tokens to convert them into veAERO, a non-fungible token (NFT) that represents their voting power. The longer the lock period, the higher the voting weight. Voters can then vote on which liquidity pools will receive AERO emissions, allowing them to build liquidity at a low cost.
Aerodrome Finance works by attracting liquidity from traders and liquidity providers. Traders can swap tokens with minimal slippage and pay low fees to AERO lockers. Liquidity providers deposit trading tokens and receive AERO emissions as rewards. The protocol offers incentives to veAERO voters to attract votes and AERO emissions to their pools. Voters receive 100% of the incentives and fees for the pools they vote for. This self-optimizing liquidity flywheel and anti-dilution rebases for voters help sustain the protocol's growth.
What Is the AERO Token?
AERO is the native ERC-20 utility token of the Aerodrome protocol. It is distributed as emissions to liquidity providers who supply liquidity to Aerodrome's trading pools, rewarding them for their contributions. AERO holders can lock their tokens to receive veAERO NFTs, granting them voting rights to determine how future AERO emissions are distributed across the various liquidity pools. These veAERO voters receive 100% of the trading fees generated by the protocol, proportional to their locked AERO amounts, incentivizing them to allocate emissions intelligently.
The Aerodrome protocol utilizes two distinct tokens to facilitate its utility and governance mechanisms. The AERO token, an ERC-20 standard token, serves as the utility token for the protocol. It is distributed as emissions to liquidity providers who contribute to the platform's liquidity pools. On the other hand, the veAERO token, structured as an ERC-721 non-fungible token (NFT), is employed for governance purposes.
Any AERO token holder can participate in the governance process by vote-escrowing their tokens, which involves locking them for a specified period, ranging up to four years. In exchange, they receive a veAERO NFT, also known as a Lock or veNFT. The longer the lock duration, the higher the voting power or weight assigned to the underlying locked balance, following a linear relationship. For instance, locking 100 AERO for 4 years would yield 100 veAERO, while locking the same amount for 1 year would result in 25 veAERO.
The protocol also offers an Auto-Max Lock feature, which treats the Aerodrome Locks (veNFTs) as being locked for the maximum duration of 4 years, preventing any decay in their voting power. This feature can be toggled on or off for each individual Lock (veNFT).

Features of Aerodrome Finance
Some of the features of Aerodrome Finance include:
- Stable & Volatile Trading for Low Fees: Aerodrome enables trading of both stable and volatile cryptocurrency assets with low trading fees for users.
- 100% of Protocol Incentives and Fees Go to Voters: All incentives from the protocol emissions as well as trading fees generated are distributed to veAERO holders who have voting rights based on their locked AERO tokens.
- Liquid Locked Positions in the Form of NFTs: AERO holders can lock their tokens to receive veAERO NFTs, representing their locked and vote-escrowed position, which remain liquid and transferable.
- Permissionless Pools, Gauges, and Incentives: Aerodrome allows anyone to create new liquidity pools, gauges for staking liquidity, and configure incentives in a permissionless manner.
- Self-Optimizing Liquidity Flywheel: The ability to create pools/incentives in a permissionless way enables a self-sustaining liquidity flywheel on the protocol.
- Anti-dilution Rebases for Voters: The voting power of veAERO holders increases over time relative to the AERO token supply growth, protecting their governance rights from dilution.

There’s no denying that the Coronavirus has forced everyone to face some significant challenges, including those of a physical, mental and financial nature. But among the struggles and the hardship there have also been some positives to come out of the situation.
Many people have been able to spend more time at home with their loved ones and some are developing new skills while, on a wider scale, the environment is beginning to benefit. The Covid-19 pandemic has led to a huge drop in air pollution – undoubtedly a step in the right direction after decades of decline.
Calls are already being made for us to heed these lessons and do more to address our environmental impact once lockdown measures are lifted. Businesses have been hit hard by the crisis, with many forced to furlough staff and/or pause trading, but there’s no denying that companies up and down the country have a part to play in contributing towards a more sustainable future. Here are a few ways they can do that:
Introduce working from home
The social distancing measures mean huge numbers of people are now working from home and, for a lot of businesses, this practice could be introduced as an option for staff even when lockdown has ended. Advances in technology and faster connectivity speeds mean many can do their jobs just as adequately from a remote setting, and fewer commuters will mean a drastic drop in air pollution.
Use greener energy
In the long term, businesses may also want to think about the energy sources they use. Renewable forms of power such as solar or wind will require an initial investment but may help to cut overheads in the long run, while they will certainly contribute towards reducing an organisation’s carbon footprint.
Environmentally friendly delivery services
Goods providers may want to think about the delivery methods they use. With the majority of stores shut down at present, courier services are in high demand and the likes of Parcel2Go can help your business select those that go to greater lengths to soften their environmental impact.
Altering the packaging of your products can also contribute towards a greener future. By doing away with plastic wrapping and, where possible, replacing it with materials such as cardboard, you’ll ensure that less waste is going to landfill. Instead, it can be recycled and used again. |

Fifty-years ago this fall, as a bewildered University of Oregon freshman, I showed up for an orientation session for newbies who wanted to be on the air at what was then student-programmed KWAX. The station’s chief engineer introduced us to the program log, told us how to take meter readings (required every half hour as I recall) and showed us where the station’s license was posted. He then stuck in our hands a study guide for an FCC Third Class Radio Telephone Operator Permit and told us to come back when we had our “Third Phone.” Third Phone and program log requirements disappeared long ago and for many years stations have had the discretion to decide when or if to take most meter readings. The only vestige of my 1968 introduction to broadcasting that has remained is the obligation for the station’s license to be posted. And that may soon be a thing of the past.
On May 10, the FCC unanimously voted to issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) suggesting elimination of various rules requiring broadcasters to post their licenses, ownership information, and contact information in a physical location. This measure is part of the Commission’s continued push in its Modernization of Media Regulation Initiative, which aims to update the regulations of the FCC.
The FCC argues that the rules on posting this type of information are “redundant and obsolete now that licensing information is readily accessible online.”
The Modernization of Media Regulation Initiative aims to also “remove unnecessary requirements that can impede competition and innovation in the media marketplace.” I don’t know that getting rid of license posting rules will foster “competition and innovation in the media marketplace,” but it will eliminate one small hassle broadcasters have had to deal with over the years.
The FCC is currently seeking comment on several issues regarding the current posting rules, including:
- Whether the rules continue to serve the public interest (given that this information is easily accessible online);
- Whether these rules serve any public safety purposes; and
- Whether there is any continuing need for LPTV, FM and TV translator, and booster stations to post signs on their towers reporting the name and address of the person and place where station records are stored.
During the FCC’s May Open Meeting, Commissioner O’Rielly commented on his recent visit to One World Trade Center where he saw broadcaster licenses and authorizations “literally taped to the wall. No member of the public has access to this facility to view this paperwork, which was in fact conspicuously placed.” Similarly, Chairman Pai stated, “As a result, I’m skeptical that our license posting rules currently serve any useful purpose and look forward to reviewing comments from stakeholders discussing whether they should be eliminated.” This marks the tenth “modernization” item to be crossed off of Chairman Ajit Pai’s regulatory weed whacking efforts.
Comments on this matter are due 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. |
TOP PICK If anyone knows my wine preferences, Loire Valley Wines are on the top of my list for quality, value and interest. I wait for this wine to come out every year and I can never get enough.
The estate has been certified organic since 2006 but has been farmed without chemicals and with homemade compost and with active working of the soils for much longer than that. The fruit is all from the estate, is hand-harvested, destemmed, moved only by gravity; fermented with indigenous yeasts in cement tank; aged in a mix of cement tank and used barriques; never punched down; touched with very little sulfur; and bottled without filtration. Their wines are noted for exquisite precision, concentration and texture and are unquestionably among the finest and most expressive of the Chinon appellation.

As you get older, however, you can expect to live considerably longer than these averages suggest. The ONS points out that the typical 65-year-old man in the UK will live for 18.5 more years, until well past their 83rd birthday.
Women who reach their 65th birthday can on average expect to live a further 21 years until they turn 86, ONS data indicates.
Life expectancy is one of the most important factors when it comes to how insures work out the price of life insurance. So, the more you can do to increase your lifespan, the greater the chances of lowering your costs.
As a long-term trend, life expectancy has been steadily increasing in the UK for more than 150 years. In the middle of the 19th century, life expectancy for both men and women was little more than 40 years.
According to the ONS, women’s life expectancy from birth in England and Wales in 1901 was 52.4 years while men’s was 48.5 years. These figures had risen to 71.5 years and 66.4 years respectively by 1951.
Increases have continued since then and have been attributed to a wide range of factors. These include:
- Advances in medical treatments
- The eradication of diseases such as smallpox and tuberculosis
- The adoption of healthier lifestyles with more exercise.
A better understanding of the importance of nutrition and the risks associated with drinking alcohol and smoking has also helped to extend average lifetimes.
Increases in life expectancy in the UK have slowed to some extent in the past few years, while the pandemic led to higher mortality rates in 2020.
This meant that male life expectancy actually fell between 2018 and 2020, while women’s life expectancy stayed at the same level as in the previous three-year period.
The life expectancy figures published by bodies such as the ONS and the WHO normally set out how long the average newborn is expected to live. This figure is typically described as ‘life expectancy from birth’.
When the ONS provides life expectancy figures, it’s setting out:
‘The average number of additional years a person can be expected to live for if they experience the age-specific mortality rates of the given area and time period for the rest of their life’.
This means that the ONS looks at current death rates in the population as well as the ages at which people die to calculate an expectancy figure for men and women.
You often also see life expectancy figures for people who’ve reached a certain age. These are inevitably higher than ‘life expectancy at birth’ figures – purely because they don’t include people who’ve died at a younger age.
It’s useful to know your life expectancy at a later stage of life if you’re planning your retirement finances, for example. Let’s say women who turn 65 in the UK expect to live another 21 years, on average. It makes sense, then, to plan to have sufficient pension income to cover this period at least.
Population-wide life expectancy figures such as those published by the ONS are useful, but they don’t address individual differences. Your own life expectancy is of course be linked to general mortality rates in the country you live in. For example, you’re likely to live longer if you’re in the UK rather than a poorer, developing country with a lower standard of healthcare.
But this is only part of the picture. Several other factors ranging from your lifestyle to your family medical history play an important role in dictating your life expectancy. We set out some of the most crucial factors:
- Your age. As you get older, the number of years you can expect to live from now inevitably decline.
- Your birth sex. Generally, women tend to live longer than men – in the UK as well as in most of the world.
- Your health. If you’ve suffered health problems previously, there’s a possibility these issues could re-emerge or persist.
- Your weight could also be a factor. Obesity can lead to health problems later in life.
- Family medical issues. If there’s a history of problems such as hereditary heart disease on one side of your family, this could also lead to lower life expectancy.
- Your marital status. Studies suggest that married couples tend to have longer life expectancy than single people. Research has shown that marriage increases the tendency to eat more healthily, for example, and benefit from emotional support. But the benefits of being married appear to be greater for those in ‘happy’ relationships.
- Lifestyle factors. Eating healthily, using substances such as nicotine and alcohol in moderation – or not at all – and exercise all impact your life expectancy.
Looking at the factors that influence life expectancy, it’s clear that some of them simply can’t be changed – for example your age.
Nor can you alter the fact that there’s a history of certain illnesses in your family. But there are steps you can take to address issues such as this.
If one side of your family seems to be susceptible to heart disease, you could adopt lifestyle changes to address this. For example, you could cut down on fatty foods and do suitable forms of exercise.
Similarly, if you’re not married you could try to cultivate a social circle to provide you with more emotional support. Making changes to your lifestyle in order to improve your life expectancy can be more straightforward. As well as eating more healthily, you could look to stop smoking or cut down the amount of alcohol you drink.
The factors that dictate life expectancy are used by insurance companies when they set life insurance premiums.
The most common type of life insurance is level term life insurance. This runs for a fixed period and is normally designed to help cover major expenses such as a mortgage and childcare costs.
To set the price of this kind of policy, the insurer needs to know what the chances are of the policyholder dying during the period the cover is in place. To work this out, they consider the same factors applied in calculating life expectancy.
Life insurance providers are likely to ask you to provide a range of information such as:
- Your age
- Your marital status
- Details about out your lifestyle
- Your current and past health
- Any family history of illness.
The more that these factors point to a lower life expectancy, the more you can expect to pay in life insurance costs. For example, someone in their forties who smokes heavily might expect to pay more than a non-smoker in their thirties – other things being equal.
The amount of cover you need plays a big role, as does the length of time you want the cover to be in place for. You also need to decide whether you want the same level of cover to remain in place for the duration of the policy. An option known as decreasing term insurance sees the amount of insurance fall every year. This reflects the fact that the size of your mortgage is likely to be falling.
Choosing decreasing term insurance rather than level term insurance could help reduce your premiums.
What are the different types of life insurance?
is individual cover that pays out when the policyholder dies.
pays out a lump sum if you're diagnosed with an illness covered by your policy
pays out an amount that decreases over time, usually in line with your mortgage
covers two people on a single policy, paying out if either of you die during the policy term
offers cover for the over 50s, with acceptance guaranteed up to age 84. No medical or health questionnaires required
covers the cost of private medical care, helping you avoid NHS waiting lists to get the cover you need, quickly
covers your bills if you're injured or ill and are unable to work. Short term policies and longer ones available

As always, the holidays are associated with added expenses. And as Easter is just a few weeks away, it’s time to start prepping! For those who celebrate and are trying to reduce credit card debt, it can be difficult to balance acknowledging the day without going overboard. Luckily, Easter is a bit more low-key than some other holidays (looking at you, Christmas) and with a little prep work, your family can have frugal Easter fun and not miss out on a thing.
Easter Fun on a Budget
Consider these four ways to have fun this Easter without going overboard on filling those Easter baskets!
- Ditch the Baskets. Chances are, your kids don’t really need an entire basket full of candy. And, a lot of it ends up going to waste. So rather than buy tons of chocolate Easter bunnies and other sweets, limit the candy to a few favorite treats.
- Color Easter Eggs. Decorating Easter eggs was always one of my favorite childhood memories. And let me tell you, it’s just as fun as an adult! The great news is that coloring Easter eggs are a really frugal activity. Just pick up a dozen white eggs and an egg coloring kit. Add stickers, glitter, or drawings to spice things up! Using real eggs is less expensive than the plastic ones, and you save from having to put treats like candy or money inside. Then, you can use the eggs for lunches and snacks for the coming week.
- Bake Treats. Easter is such a fun holiday to decorate and bake for. It’s all colorful pastels! As always, Pinterest is a treasure trove for ways to have Easter fun on a budget. This may also help you save on the cost of candy that typically goes into an Easter basket.
- Easter Egg Hunt. Just like coloring the eggs, an Easter egg hunt is a low-stress, high-fun scenario. Rather than use fake eggs, hide the ones you and your family colored together! Do a few different rounds and switch up who hides and finds the eggs. Talk about Easter fun! Just make sure to keep track of how many eggs you have so you don’t forget any around the house.
- Avoid Expensive Outfits. I know, I know. Getting an adorable Easter photo is one of the highlights of the day. Everyone looks so great in their Easter best. But, you can certainly get a frame-worthy photo without splurging on outfits that you can only wear once a year.

It's time to evoke the sunshine and botanical aesthetic of the warmest season with a summer baby shower. Whether it's through citrus centerpieces or a warm color scheme, your shower will be a hit. Not sure how to decorate or plan the food? With these fun ideas, the parents-to-be will have a summer baby shower they'll never forget.
1. The Sunny Outdoors
Though you might have limited options, a summer baby shower is best served outdoors in the warm sun. Backyard barbecues and garden parties leave guests comfortable and happy. Set up picnic tables and put out bouquets of fresh flowers to tie everything together.
2. The Colors of Summer
When thinking of a color scheme for the baby shower, the colors of summer fit right in. Whether you know the baby's gender or not, a peach and green color scheme is a great summery alternative to the classic blues or pinks. Bring in the color with balloon archways, flower centerpieces, and streamers.
3. Citrusy Centerpieces
It's easy to evoke memories of summer lemonade stands when guests see these citrusy centerpieces on your tables. Add real lemons, limes, and oranges to bouquets and place settings. The fresh scent of real citrus fruits will give the shower a summery aura.
4. The "Mom-osa" Bar
Celebrate mom with a "mom-osa" bar. Mimosas are the perfect brunch drink for a summer party. Add several varieties of fruit juices for guests to choose from, as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic champagnes.
5. Summery Sweet Treats
Some desserts just scream "summer fun." As you compile sweet treats for your summer dessert table, consider treats that have the flavors of summer but that won't melt in the sunshine. Your guests will love lemon bars, macarons, and cake pops. |

How to Summer into Style with Fab Mini Dress
Summer is the perfect time to let loose and experiment with different styles. And what better way to do that than with mini dresses! Mini dresses are versatile and comfortable and come in various styles, colors, and fabrics. Whether going out for brunch, attending a summer wedding, or hitting the beach, there’s a mini dress for every occasion. Here are some mini dresses styling ideas to help you stay cool and fashionable this summer.
Go Bold with Prints
Summer is the perfect time to experiment with bold prints and colors. Try a mini dress with a bright floral or abstract print. You can pair it with neutral accessories like sandals or a clutch to balance out the look. Mix and match prints by pairing a patterned mini dress with a contrasting print purse or shoes if daring.
Layer with a Denim Jacket
A denim jacket is a summer staple that is easy to wear with almost anything, including mini dresses. It’s a great way to add some edge to a sweet and feminine look. Layer a cropped denim jacket over a flowy mini dress for a casual yet chic outfit. You can also tie the jacket around your waist for a more relaxed look.
Dress Up with Heels
Mini dresses are perfect for dressing up or down. Pair a fitted mini dress with some strappy heels for a night out. This look is perfect for a summer wedding or cocktail party. If you’re uncomfortable wearing high heels, try a block heel or a wedge sandal for added comfort.
Keep it Casual with Sneakers
Sneakers are no longer just for the gym. They’ve become a fashion staple worn with anything, including mini dresses. Pair a simple cotton mini dress with white sneakers for a casual, comfortable look. You can also add a denim jacket or a statement necklace to elevate the look.
Embrace the Boho Vibe
Boho style is perfect for summer, and a mini dress is a great way to incorporate it into your wardrobe. Look for mini dresses with crochet detailing, tassels, or embroidery. Pair them with sandals and a floppy hat for a relaxed and bohemian look.
Belt it Up
Adding a belt to a mini dress can completely transform the look. It cinches in the waist and adds some definition to the silhouette. You can try a thin belt for a subtle look or a statement belt for a bold statement. A belt also works well when layering with a denim jacket or cardigan.
Play with Texture
Summer is the perfect time to experiment with different textures. Try a mini dress with a textured fabric like linen, lace, or silk. You can also play with different textures by adding accessories like a straw hat or a woven bag. This will add some depth and interest to your outfit.
Add Some Sparkle
Who says you can’t wear sequins in the summer? A sequin mini dress is perfect for a summer party or a night out. You can pair it with strappy heels and simple accessories for a glamorous look. If you’re uncomfortable with a full sequin dress, try a mini dress with some detailing or embellishments.
Keep it Simple with a Solid Color
Sometimes less is more, and that’s the case with solid color mini dresses. They’re simple, elegant, and timeless. You can dress them up or down with accessories and shoes. Look for classic colors like black, white, navy, or blush pink.
In conclusion, mini dresses are a versatile and stylish choice for summer. With these styling ideas, you can easily switch up your look for any occasion, whether for a casual daytime outing or a dressy evening event. Experiment with prints, textures, accessories, and more to find your perfect mini-dress look. |
Kirsten Howard's Biggest Fan (Paperback)
Michael Duncan has everything going for him: a growth spurt, a best friend who's even more sports-obsessed than he is, and a (mutual?) crush on Kirsten Howard, the best basketball player in the state. But then he gets injured and his friend gets crazy. All the sudden Mike's life isn't looking so great, and that's before a scandal that implicates both Kirsten and her coach, aka Mike's father. |
Wet conditions delay deliveries
Harvest has begun in all port zones, but recent wet weather has hampered delivery efforts over the past week.
CBH Geraldton zone manager Duncan Gray said he hoped farmers would now be back on their harvesters again, with predicted warm and dry conditions throughout the zone in the coming days.
He said 21,000 tonnes had been delivered in the Geraldton port zone so far this season, which was significantly behind delivery results at this time last year.
Mr Gray said the new Eyefoss image analysis machine was working well at the Yuna receival site.

"The biggest question with our sampling procedures has been the subjectivity of the sampler to count grains for fungal stains, and sprouting. The Eyefoss machine takes away the conjecture regarding a personal decision on these issues," he said.
Mr Gray said so far only Northampton, Yuna, Binnu, Mingenew and Carnamah receival sites were open, but he hoped more would open this coming week.
Esperance region has so far received 110,000t through CBH.
According to CBH Esperance zone manager Mick Daw, 75,000t of canola and 40,000t of barley have been delivered to seven of 13 receival points.
"Chadwick is pretty much up and running - there is one run of bitumen to lay, the bulkhead conveyor is going in now and the bulkhead I expect will be finished by the end of next week," he said.
All refurbishment at the Beaumont bin has been finalised.
Cascade works are two to three weeks from finalisation, due to rain delaying bitumen works.
Mr Daw expects the effects of the hiatus to also hit in two to three weeks time, based on weather and receivals to date.
About 5.5 million tonnes are expected to be delivered in Kwinana zone, and CBH zone manager Brett Jeffrey said emergency storage was almost complete in the zone's south.
"We've also upgraded storage capacity at many sites throughout the zone and, combined with the heavy harvest shipping program, we are confident that we can handle this harvest tonnage," he said.
Mr Jeffrey said the zone was running about 10 days behind previous harvest programs.
Last week, Kwinana zone received its first few hundred tonnes of grain delivered to the MGC, Avon, Moora and McLevie sites.
"With some fine weather we anticipate we will get most sites receiving within the coming few weeks. We think it will all start very quickly," Mr Jeffrey said.
In the Albany zone, up to 40 mm was received over the weekend, putting harvest efforts on hold for several days.
Zone manager Greg Thornton said only 300t of canola had been received so far into the Albany port and Gairdner receival site.
The Borden site is the only other site open so far. "We will open up further bins as people get in touch with us," Mr Thornton said.
Between 12.7 million tonnes and 13 million tonnes are expected to be harvested across the State this season.

Burton: There's important context there with what occurred just over a year ago with the fiscal year 2020 budget. I think how the fiscal year 2021 budget, which was just signed, we at the MEDC and the Michigan Strategic Fund are very pleased with the budget that we did get. Pure Michigan has been dark for nearly a year now and it really is so much more than just a travel campaign. While the tourism and hospitality industries are critical sectors for our state's economy, at the same time that brand, which has been built now for 14 years, really provides a wonderful umbrella for us when we talk to businesses, whether it's about staying and growing here in Michigan or certainly even on the attraction front. Pure Michigan is a brand, people understand it and having that back in this budget was a critical victory.
A couple of the other major line items for us: One is our business attraction and community revitalization work is all in one particular line item in the budget. Being able to continue the momentum on the business and economic side as well as continuing efforts on the community revitalization side are only more important now with the pandemic.
Overall, we're very pleased with the budget and pleased in a way that in the conversations we had with both leadership in the Legislature as well as Gov. Whitmer and her team, we really feel that we, we developed some trust over the course of the spring and summer with our relief (coronavirus pandemic) efforts and we believe this budget validates that.
Livengood: The Pure Michigan campaign at its height was about $36 million. This budget is $15 million. What can you do with $15 million and still have a meaningful impact compared to what you were doing in the summer of 2018 or 2019.
Burton: The circumstances obviously are wildly different, given the pandemic and travel habits. I think we watched, particularly in the mid-to-late summer that people were very comfortable traveling in-state, but there are still barriers when it comes to out-of-state or certainly out-of-country travelers. So that's sort of recognition and acknowledgement of the circumstances that are going to help shape what a $15 million campaign is going to look like. There's no question it's a different set of circumstances than the summer of 2019, for instance.
The $15 million is a great place to start. We hope to get into the market for one last push for fall travel and then going into winter and beyond be up and running with a with a smart and strategic campaign that keeps driving the Pure Michigan message and brand.
Livengood: With the community revitalization funds that you have, this is obviously a big program that developers in Detroit have relied on to get some subsidy, to make the numbers work, because financing is difficult for any kind of a mixed-use project along the various neighborhood corridors.
What type of projects are you looking at, particularly given this current environment that retail is suffering on so many different fronts? What kind of projects do look at in Detroit neighborhoods where there's these targeted programs that Mayor Mike Duggan and the philanthropic foundations have emphasized.
Burton: When it comes to the community revitalization work ... we help fill the financing gap. If a project can get up and moving and be done without our assistance. But for any number of reasons, sometimes that's not the case. With Detroit, I do think they have a very sound strategy in terms of the development priorities. We continue to work closely with local communities across the state — not just Detroit, but everybody — where we really want to be a partner with the communities, understand what their vision is and help them come to a vision for their community if they don't have one.

Using Microsoft Word for formatting large documents is an obvious choice for many people. It’s readily available, it seems intuitive, and it’s a powerful word-processing tool. It is jam-packed with functionality, probably more than most people use because it’s so easy to open a blank document and start typing. Something which makes it an excellent approach for many types of documents such as a letter to a friend, or notes about your genealogy research.
However, it’s not necessarily the best way to begin the layout of your family history book. Whether you are formatting as you write or creating a final print-ready version, you will want to make sure that what pops out at the end is what you are expecting. So start with the outcome and then work backwards to work out what steps to take to reach that goal.
Using Microsoft Word for your document
Know the desired result
Before you open a new blank document and start typing find out:
- the final page size
- do you need to add “bleed.”
- your binding solution
If you aren’t sure, then check out the article 5 Powerful Planning Tips for Writing Your Family History to learn more.
Sort out the settings
Once you know how you need to output the artwork (that’s designer speak for your finished book), then it’s time to set up your template so you can start using Microsoft Word to tell your ancestors’ stories.
Step 1. Page Size
For this setting, you will need to look at the dimensions of the final trimmed page plus ‘bleed’.
What is bleed?
Bleed is printer speak for when images or colour run to the edge of the paper without a white margin. Check with the printing company you are using to see if you need to include it. Bleed is usually 3mm/0.12in to 5mm/0.2in.
If the final trimmed size is 8.5 x 11in then with bleed the page size becomes 8.9 x 11in. When using Microsoft Word for a custom size, manually create it by typing the numbers into the page setup. If you do this after creating multiple sections, then make sure you apply the change to the whole document.
ON THE RIBBON choose Layout > Size and make a selection. For custom pages select More Paper Sizes.
Step 2. Margins
Setting margins create space between the edge of the paper and the content area of the document. If you added bleed to the page size, make sure to include this when calculating the margins. So that means add 0.2in (or the value used) to both the left and right margins when using Microsoft Word.
ON THE RIBBON choose Layout > Margins and make a selection or select Custom Margins to add your own settings.
Step 3. Mirror Margins
Not sure what mirror margins are? You will see that term when using Microsoft Word, and you want to set up the file for two-sided printing. It’s only necessary when the left and right margins are different values. This setting ensures that the binding edge is the same on all pages. The feature turns on facing pages so that the inside/outside margin of the left page is the mirror of the right (EG inside margins on both pages are the same width as are the outside margins).
ON THE RIBBON choose Layout > Margins > Custom Margins and make a selection for Multiple Pages.
Step 4. Headers and Footers
Headers and footers let you add content that will automatically repeat across pages of a section or the entire document. When using Microsoft Word, you can control the starting position of the header and footer. Another feature is to have different headers/footers for the first page of a section, or for odd and even pages. Content typically includes document/chapter name, date created or revised, author name, draft or revision and page numbers.
ON THE RIBBON choose Insert > Header > Edit Header > Header & Footer Tools/Design tab.
Step 5. Orientation when using Microsoft Word
The two types of page orientation are:
- portrait/vertical where the height is higher than the width, and
- landscape/horizontal where the width is longer than the height.
Do you need to change orientation for multiple sections? Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + A to select all pages first!
ON THE RIBBON choose Layout > Orientation.
Step 6. No. of Columns
If your book is in a single column, then you don’t need to worry about this setting. It’s only necessary if you want to use multiple columns in your document.
Don’t use the predefined columns but set your own to control the spacing between the columns.
ON THE RIBBON choose Layout > Columns > More Columns.
Step 7. Theme Colors
Choosing theme colors gives you control over the default colors for tables, Smart Art, shapes and charts. There are some predefined palettes, or you can create your own.
ON THE RIBBON choose Design > Colors and make a selection. For custom pages select Customize Colors.
Step 8. Font Theme
A font theme sets the default typeface for the general text and heading styles. It’s a great way to set up your document because you can quickly change the fonts by updating the theme. Choose a pre-defined set or create your own. You can still use other fonts within the document for critical text or design elements. Modify a specific style or manually apply the typeface to a particular paragraph or phrase. Just remember that any manual formatting you do won’t update automatically so keep a note of what changes you make.
ON THE RIBBON choose Design > Fonts and make a selection. For custom color palettes select Customize Fonts.
Step 9. Styles
Setting up styles is the part of the document structure that I spend the most time on. This stage can take me two to three times as long as the other eight steps. Now, I don’t say that to overwhelm you but to emphasise how important I think this part is. Why? Because if they set up correctly, then styles will do the heavy lift while you are using Microsoft Word. You add the content, apply the style and just keep going.
If you new to styles or creating a template, then you’ll be glad that you are using Microsoft Word. Add all the styles you think you’ll need to the Style Gallery, then modify them as you go. The text styles are the ones you’ll add (paragraph, list and character), but don’t forget about table styles.
ON THE KEYBOARD press Ctrl + Shift + Alt + S.
Save your file
Once you’ve finished creating the foundation of your document, save the file as a template. Follow the standard prompts to save the document, but choose template (*.DOTX) as the file type instead of document (*.DOCX). Now you have a clean master file ready for content and design elements to create your family history book.
Get the worksheet
If a printable worksheet would help, then I have one for you! Work through each step to set up your document and make a note of what you did so you have it handy for next time. It’s also helpful in case you have to confirm something with the printer or for peace of mind. Then when you ask yourself ‘did I do that’ you can double-check that indeed you did.
LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION:
The above steps are ones that I follow every time I set up a Word template. I work out the outcome and then plan backwards to find the steps that I have to take to get there. I’d love to hear your thoughts and if these tips that you can put to use when creating documents to tell your ancestor stories? Or do you have another setup tip to share?

A Kentucky mother has been charged with murder after her 2-year-old son ingested her fentanyl while she was sleeping.
First responders found the boy in respiratory distress when they responded to a call in Ludlow at about 3:300 Thursday afternoon. He was taken to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
His mother, 33-year-old Lauren Ashley Baker, has been charged with murder, importing fentanyl, and trafficking in a controlled substance, according to Fox 19. She’s being held without bond.
Baker told police she got the fentanyl on Saturday from Cincinnati, using the money from the COVID stimulus check, and brought it back home to Ludlow, a police report says.
On Thursday, she “took a shot” of the drug and fell asleep. While she was sleeping, the toddler found the fentanyl in her purse and ingested some of it. When she awoke, she found the contents of the purse dumped out and her son not breathing.
The boy’s father arrived at called 911, the report says.
Police said Baker gave investigators some fentanyl from her purse, and detectives also found a substance believed to be fentanyl scattered on the bed. They also found empty Narcan packages on the scene.
Commonwealth Attorney Rob Sanders said said it’s unclear how the boy ingested the drug, but he noted that a 2-year-old touching the drug and putting his fingers in his mouth could be enough to kill him.

Time to Talk Day 2024
Run by Mind and Rethink Mental Illness, Time to Talk Day is the nation’s biggest mental health conversation. Happening every year, it’s a day for friends, families, communities, and workplaces to come together to talk, listen and change lives.
Talking about mental health isn’t always easy, and sometimes it’s even harder to say how you really feel, but a conversation has the power to change lives. The more conversations we can have, the better.
As part of the College's commitment to promoting positive mental health for all, in Tutor Time this week, the students have been discussing what someone might really mean by “It’s all good”/“Yeah, getting by...”/“Not toooo bad”, how we can help others unpick their emotions and the different ways in which support can be accessed in College.
At Crookhorn, we are fully committed to fostering a whole College culture where all members of our College community feel able to talk openly about mental health. |
A black Murano glass pendant with pretty black, red and white millefiori beads set in a sterling silver frame.
This silver pendant is handmade in Venice, Italy, with small glass beads fused together to form a unique pattern. Millefiori beads come from long glass rods that are sliced to reveal their internal pattern, often resembling little flowers. Each millefiori pendant is handmade and therefore completely unique.
Each of our Venetian Murano glass pendants have been personally handpicked from small family businesses on the island of Murano. We can therefore vouch for their authenticity and each pendant will come with a little Certificate of Authenticity supplied by the artists.
The island of Murano is famous for its traditional glass making and the millefiori pendants have become their trademark. If you want to know a little about how these millefiori pendants are made, then head to our Murano glass pendant category for a brief description with video links.
This black Murano glass pendant is framed in sterling silver and is 27mm wide.
If you need to add a chain, you will find a selection in our sterling silver chain category. |

ACEs – Adverse Childhood Experiences – can have a untold impact on the life children will grow up to lead. This could be psychologically, or even physically, and cause stress and trauma to a great degree.
Educational Psychologist, Susan Moore, discusses how the early life of children is crucial and what we has practitioners in the education sector can do to identify ACEs and help children to deal with and understand how it has affected them…
As an Educational Psychologist I have always been aware of how an individual’s early life and in particular their attachment experiences impact on their cognitive, social and emotional development. Finding out about a child’s early life has always been my starting point with a family but I was unaware how this background impacted on their physical health. In the late 90s some doctors in the USA noticed that most of their obese patients had also suffered significant childhood trauma. Could there be a link?
A large scale study (Felliti et al, 1998) showed a clear link between childhood trauma (such as abuse, neglect, parental separation etc.) and negative outcomes in adulthood. They also found that childhood trauma was much more common than originally believed and those with the highest levels of childhood trauma die, on average, twenty years earlier. From this initial study the concept of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) emerged. An English study (Bellis et al, 2014) found that almost half (46%) of the adult population in England had at least one ACE, while 8% had four or more. In Wales, a study (Bellis et al, 2015) found that those with four or more ACEs were 16 times more likely to use heroin or cocaine and 20 times more likely to spend time in prison.
It does not seem difficult to see the link between the physical wellbeing of a child and a child who is not fed regularly but it is the accumulative impact of chronic stress on individual development that is harder to understand. When children live in stressful environments their ‘fight, flight or freeze’ systems are continually stimulated. Constant activation of the body’s stress response systems as a result of ACEs can be toxic to brain architecture and other developing organ systems. Connections in the brain are reduced and lost through toxic stress. Fewer neural connections make it more difficult to utilize brain capacity and this impacts on the individual’s overall development. Newer research is also showing that exposure to chronic stress alters our genes, including genes that are involved in a range of diseases.
Governments and health agencies are using this information to introduce national policies that lower the number of children exposed to ACEs, identify early those showing signs of trauma and improve the outcomes for individuals with high ACE scores.
Zippy’s Friends is a fantastic programme which covers a range of issues including managing conflict, managing feelings, loss and making friends. It is taught as 45 minute lessons each week and helps young children to develop coping and social skills, whilst enjoying creative and fun story lines and characters amongst their peers.
We will be running a session on 26 September which will introduce staff to the philosophy and theoretical basis of Zippy’s Friends and how it can be delivered in your classroom. For more information and to book click here.

The Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA), in partnership with The FA Project, Catrike, The Texas Irish Foundation, and UVA Sun Systems are pleased to announce the 2013 Ataxian Athlete Initiative (AAI) grant recipients. The AAI provides adaptive cycling equipment to people with Ataxia who have demonstrated the desire to stay active and healthy despite their disabilities. Friedreich’s ataxia (FA) is a rare, progressive and life-shortening neuromuscular disease for which there is currently no cure.
The AAI is managed by Ride Ataxia, a FARA program with a mission to promote active lifestyles among FA patients through cycling events across the United States geared towards raising awareness and much-needed research funds. The 2013 AAI was funded by The FA Project, Catrike, UVA Sun Systems, The Texas Irish Foundation, and a donation in memory of Gladys Lacativo.
AAI grants are administered through a competitive application process. Applicants were invited to submit an essay summarizing their experience with Ataxia and their efforts to stay active. Inpiduals then selected the most appropriate adaptive cycling equipment to suit their abilities and described how such equipment would help them to reach their fitness goals. AAI grants are awarded based on the merit of the applications, equipment requested, and resources available in terms of funding.
With the 2013 grant awards, the AAI has provided equipment for 21 inpiduals since its 2009 inception. In 2013, the AAI is sending equipment overseas for the first time to Ireland and Australia. Additionally Ride Ataxia teamed up with the Texas Irish Foundation for the first time specifically to provide equipment in the North Texas area.
The 2013 AAI recipients are Lealan LaRoche of Atlanta, GA, Regina Russo of St. Petersburg, FL, Eric Pogulis of Elk River, MN, Liberty Griggs of Anchorage, AK, Alex Dagley of Frisco, TX, Barry Rice of Dublin, Ireland, and Terrence O’Hanlon of Cleveland Australia.

South Africa’s garden route: Where to go on the Garden Route and what to do
The Garden Route is one of the world’s most spectacular drives, a 200km stretch of road that winds past forested mountains, sprawling wetlands and white-sand beaches with picturesque towns spaced no more than a 45-minute drive apart.
Knysna: charming holiday town at the heart of the Garden Route
The town lazes on the shore of a shallow lagoon: grand houses tumble down the hill toward the water’s edge, boats bob at wooden jetties, and the town’s famous Waterfront buzzes with restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and bars. There’s plenty to do in and around town: take the ferry to the Featherbed Nature Reserve and stroll along its cliff-top paths, go on a boat cruise to ‘The Heads’ (a pair of rocky headlands through which the tide ebbs and flows) or walk one of the trails in the surrounding Knysna Forest.
Plettenberg Bay: (or ‘Plett’ to the locals) has excellent golf courses, hiking trails, and numerous nature reserves nearby to head to. The small town full of restaurants and coffee shops is a delight as a home base. Wooden jetties and boats dot the bay, and grand houses tumble down toward the ocean.
The Crags: wildlife sanctuaries, fantastic for families
A 25-minute drive from Plettenberg Bay, The Crags is home to a number of wildlife sanctuaries and is where to go on the Garden Route for unforgettable family holiday activities. Visit the Elephant Sanctuary and walk hand in trunk with an orphaned baby elephant; wander through the forest at Monkeyland while monkeys from all over the world swing through the branches above you; and spend a few unforgettable hours at Birds of Eden – the largest free-flight aviary in the world.
Keurboomstrand: small town feel, lovely long beach
Compared to the holiday hustle and bustle of nearby Plettenberg Bay, the tranquil atmosphere of small, unassuming Keurboomstrand is enough to make you audibly exhale on arrival – perfect for long walks! The Keurbooms River Nature Reserve is also worth a visit: go for a hike in the spectacular wooded gorge or paddle along the placid river in a kayak, keeping an eye open for forest and water birds including the endemic Knysna louries and colourful malachite kingfishers.
Wilderness: laid-back village with broad sandy beaches
Driving from Cape Town, you know you’ve truly arrived on the Garden Route when you crest the hill just before the village of Wilderness and see a ribbon of dazzling white sand and blue surf-speckled ocean stretching away into the far distance. Broad beaches, well-marked hiking trails and unique ecosystems of bird-filled forests, rivers, and lagoons make Wilderness a paradise for nature lovers, bird-watchers or anyone looking for a peaceful escape away from the larger and more popular towns of Knysna and Plettenberg Bay.
Storms River Village: hikes, waterfalls & forest canopy tours
Storms River Village is surrounded by the Tsitsikamma National Park – a well-known coastal reserve that protects the remaining indigenous forest that once carpeted this region. The coastline around Storms River Village is wild and rugged, and this is where to go on the Garden Route for hiking trails that last anything between a couple of hours and five days, but how about inching along a swaying suspension bridge over a yawning ravine or taking a forest canopy tour high in the treetops as well?
St Francis Bay: beautiful coastline, ideal for water sports
Halfway between Knysna and Port Elizabeth lies St Francis Bay, a picturesque sweep of sand popular with both locals and overseas visitors. It’s a wonderfully quiet part of the Garden Route: the small town of St Francis Bay and the even smaller cluster of white-washed cottages that is the village of Cape St Francis are the largest built-up areas on this stretch of coast. Besides the miles of empty beaches and an ocean full of dolphins, there are small nature reserves, teeming rock pools, great fishing spots, horse and mountain-biking trails, bird watching hot spots and, if you fancy renting a board, some of the best surf on the Southern Cape coast.
Sedgefield: tranquil holiday town overlooking a calm lagoon
Conveniently tucked away between Knysna and George, laid-back little Sedgefield was recently declared Africa’s first Cittaslow town – a worldwide organization that advocates a cultural shift towards slowing down life’s pace. Set on the banks of a beautiful coastal lagoon famous for its birdlife, it’s a great destination for outdoor enthusiasts, or indeed those just looking for a relaxing break. Cycling and hiking routes wind through the surrounding forests and nature reserves, and every Saturday morning sees a popular outdoor organic market.
George: top golfing destination, swim, hike & bike
A sleepy agricultural town in a stunning mountainous setting, George is set back from the coast and, though friendly enough, is a fairly unremarkable destination. Its main draw, however, is the fact that three of South Africa’s best golf courses are found here, including the peerless Fancourt Golf Estate – an 18-hole champion course designed by South African golfing legend Gary Player. Other highlights in the area are the mountain-biking and hiking trails in the surrounding Outeniqua Mountains plus great swimming beaches, located only a short drive away.
Mossel Bay: safe swimming beaches, plenty to do
Lying not quite 400km from Cape Town, Mossel Bay signals the start of the Garden Route. Although the town’s sprawling outskirts aren’t much to look at, as soon as you reach the ocean, you’ll find protected sandy bays that are perfect for swimming, sailing, and kayaking. And being a popular holiday destination, there’s plenty to do in the area as well. Take a boat trip to Seal Island, go horse riding along the beach and visit nearby Botlierskop, a private game reserve that gives its visitors a taste of South Africa’s legendary game viewing experience. Mossel Bay is also where to go on the Garden Route to try one of the country’s biggest thrills: cage diving with great white sharks.
Oudtshoorn: incredible caves & ostrich farms
Oudtshoorn is separated from the Garden Route by a dramatic mountain range that forms a barrier between the lush coastline and semi-arid interior known as the Little Karoo. Luckily there’s a mountain pass which makes for a beautiful drive into this unique landscape and on to South Africa’s ostrich capital, Oudtshoorn. The town has several ostrich show farms where you can learn all about these extraordinary birds and even ride one if you’d like, but our favourite reason to travel here, however, is the presence of the Cango Caves. We’d highly recommend taking a tour of this elaborate underground labyrinth, complete with narrow stone passageways and vast caverns dripping with stalactites.
Safari options near the garden route:
There are a few excellent safari opportunities near the Garden Route. These are not as well-known to international travelers as the other priemier safari destinations in South Africa, but do offer an excellent experience with great lodges, wildlife and expert guides.
Our favourites are:
Shamwari: Shamwari game reserve has 7 lodges all of which are graded as 5-star. The game reserve hosts the “big 5” and one has a good chance of seeing these incredible animals in a relatively short stay of 3 nights. The reserve is easily accessible by vehicle, which makes the reserve a great option for those on the Garden Route.
Addo Elephant National Park: Situated close to the Garden Route, the national park is another good option for a safari in this area. There are many accommodation options and a few luxury lodges and camps. The park is well known for large numbers of elephant, good rhino viewing and excellent lion sightings.
Port Elizabeth: logistical hub & sandy beaches, “PE” is the best place to fly in or out of when exploring the Garden Route. A great option is to start in George and end in Port Elizabeth or vice versa.

GREENVILLE — Last summer, several City of Greenville residents received notices they needed to adhere to the city’s nuisance abatement ordinances and were given an opportunity to voluntarily comply. The nuisances ranged from tall grass and weeds to junk vehicles and trash littering yards. With the approval of an ordinance to hire a part-time Code Enforcement Officer at the April 2 meeting of the council, Greenville will soon begin ramping up its enforcement efforts again this year.
According to Safety Service Director Ryan Delk, the program will be structured a little different from last year. The program was in full force last year after Greenville City Schools let out for summer break. The School Resource Officer (SRO) was assigned as the Code Enforcement Officer for a couple days each week. Delk pointed out there were issues with being able to have the SRO available if a case went to court because of the officer’s duties in the school district.
This year, the Code Enforcement Officer will be under the Greenville Planning & Zoning Office. This will be a part-time position. By ordinance, the person taking that position can only work 1,169 hours a year. Delk admitted that most of the hours would come during the summer months when the city gets the majority of its nuisance calls. The new officer will work with the city’s assistant law director on taking items to court, if needed. “We’re really excited to try to get this position rolling and get things cleaned up here as we roll into spring and summer,” said Delk. The city began advertising for the position following the council meeting.
Delk, Mayor Jeff Whitaker and Law Director Michael Rieman all agreed the city would prefer not to take a resident to court and would prefer to have voluntary compliance. Mayor Whitaker encouraged residents to be good neighbors and keep their properties clean for themselves and for their neighbors. Rieman said, “It was one of my priorities when I started to clean up our nuisance abatement, so we’ve done a lot of things that perhaps you don’t see in terms of tracking complaints and knowing where things are with our iwerks software.” He added, “As soon as you call you want to see something resolved. Unfortunately, it’s not quite that simple. Give us time, we are making progress.”
Residents that want to inform the city of a property that may be in violation of the city’s nuisance abatement ordinance should contact the Planning & Zoning office.
In other business, Delk informed the council that the city building will close on Monday, April 8 at 12:30 p.m. for the eclipse. Greenville Transit System will not be taking riders after 12:30 p.m. Transit has been working with the dialysis center to move many of the patients that are normally seen Monday to Sunday. The notice of transit being closed has been posted on the city’s Facebook page and is posted on the buses.
Delk informed the council that Jason Marion was sworn-in a sergeant with the Greenville Police Department. He also congratulated Ron Hanes, an operator at the water department for nearly 30 years, on his retirement.
The council approved the disposal of a 2018 Freightliner Vac Truck, which will be sold to the Village of Versailles for $225,000. The city is getting a new truck at a cost of over a half-million dollars. As explained in a previous council meeting and reiterated by Delk on Tuesday, the new truck will be under warranty and the old truck was not. When there is an issue with this type of equipment, the cost of repairs can be extremely high.
The Greenville City Council meets the first and third Tuesday of each month at 7:30 p.m., Council Chamber, Municipal Building.

Gear up, blockchain enthusiasts! Chiliz (CHZ), the pioneer in sports blockchain, has dropped some tantalizing hints about game-changing upgrades to its smart contracts. As per a recent tweet, two transformative proposals are on the horizon.
The initial proposal aims to refine contracts, allowing factory contracts to be deployed seamlessly without necessitating whitelisting. However, the initial deployment of the factory contract would still require a whitelisted touch. The sequel upgrade is laser-focused on enhancing the staking pool contract. This arises due to issues with inaccurate voting power displays and miscalculations in the delegated amounts. A heads-up for users: expect a brief downtime on delegated features during this transition.
While the suspense builds around these proposals, Chiliz has been bustling with accomplishments. Launched in May, the Chiliz chain—a revolutionary blockchain for sports and entertainment—has skyrocketed since its mainnet inception. The stats are jaw-dropping: 1.6 billion transactions, an arsenal of 200,000 wallet addresses, and a staggering 5 million blocks!
Yet, a quick glance at the ticker shows CHZ's price dipping slightly by 1.09% to a modest $0.078. Though 2023 has seen many achievements for Chiliz, the price trajectory seems somewhat subdued. Engulfed in range trading since June, CHZ awaits a robust push to break free from its lateral movement. Only time will unveil what's next for this sports blockchain behemoth! |
During their recent trip overseas, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. actually managed to find a small patch of land where they were welcome.
According to The Irish Post, the two drew praise from at least one Irish pub owner, Caroline Kennedy (no, not that one), who described American Psycho and his sidekick, Beavis, as “lovely and down to earth.”
And then this happened:
”They thanked everyone for their support and for coming out to meet them and said there was a drink for everyone in the house and it was their small gesture."
Unfortunately, when it came time to footing the bill, things hit a slight snag with neither of the brothers carrying any cash.
Kennedy isn’t worried though, having been assured the hefty bar bill would be paid for.
"I don’t think we’ve to worry about getting paid for that," she said.
"I don’t think they carry cash. We were told it’d be all sorted later so there’s no problem.”
With apologies to Bubbanomics …
Oh, Ms. Kennedy, that’s adorable. Sorry, you’ve been Trump’d.
Of course, it’s certainly possible Kennedy will get paid … if enough people find out about this to embarrass these two ambulatory semen stains into sending this poor, guileless lass a check. If not, I doubt she’ll see so much as a circus peanut from these clowns.
Is Trump still singeing your sphincter? Dear F*cking Lunatic: 101 Obscenely Rude Letters to Donald Trump and its breathlessly awaited sequel Dear F*cking Moron: 101 More Letters to Donald Trump by Aldous J. Pennyfarthing are the salve you need! Reviewers have called these books “hysterically funny,” “cathartic,” and “laugh-out-loud” comic relief. And you can get them for less than the price of a cup of coffee ... or a black-market Xanax ... or five minutes of therapy. It’s time to heal, my friends. Buy now! |
Meghan Markle, 37, is pregnant with her first child with Prince Harry, 34, and is reportedly getting help to ensure a safe and healthy pregnancy.
However, the self-proclaimed “foodie” has previously expressed she often excludes animal products from her diet.
The Duchess of Sussex is often vocal about her passion for animal welfare.
She is Patron of animal welfare charity Mayhew, which aims to improve the lives of dogs and cats.
Kensington Palace said earlier in the year: “The Duchess has long understood the connection between animals and community welfare and has supported various animal rescue centres in Los Angeles.”
But does her compassion for animal rights mean Meghan Markle is vegan during her pregnancy?
Is has previously been reported Meghan is not vegan, but falls into the category of a mainly plant-based diet – or a so-called flexitarian diet.
This was at least the case before she met Harry, and there has been nothing to suggest she has changed her ways.
In an interview with Best Health Mag in 2015, Meghan Markle revealed: “I try to eat vegan during the week and then have a little bit more flexibility with what I dig into on the weekends.
“But at the same time, it’s all about balance.”
Laura Southern, registered Nutritionist at London Gynaecology, believes a a vegan diet is not supportive enough during pregnancy.
This is because a vegan diet can be “low in three areas vital for a healthy pregnancy – protein, iron and omega 3”, she told Daily Star Online.
Protein is used for growth and building, iron is used to make haemoglobin, which transports oxygen around the blood for baby and mum, and omega 3 provides a substance called DHA, which is vital for developing the baby’s brain, said Laura.
Laura explained: “Animal products (of the right sort) are, in my opinion, vital in pregnancy, and though the quantity doesn't need to be large, a pregnancy lacking in any animal produce might run some risks.”
However, as we know, Meghan may be following a flexitarian diet, which could include some animal products.
Laura said: “Meghan's way of eating can be described as 'flexitarian', mainly vegan, but with small amounts of animal produce, e.g. dairy, eggs, fish, sometimes included in the diet.
“If done well, this can be a very healthy way of eating as it includes all the food groups, but favours plants – high in nutrients, high in fibre and generally low in inflammatory forming foods.
“Eating like this usually supports both blood sugar, minimising the risk of gestational diabetes, and digestion due to the high vegetable and fibre content.“
Meanwhile, registered Nutritionist Sophie Thurner believes with the addition of supplements, careful meal planning and by eating a variety and balance of different vegan foods, “vegan mums-to-be should be able to get all the nutrients that they are their baby needs”.
Some of the important nutrients she mentions are iron and calcium, which she explains to Daily Star Online are “more easily obtained from an omnivorous diet, as they are more bioavailable from animal sources”.
Sophie continued: “However, our bodies are smart and adapt to pregnancy. For instance, absorption of both iron and calcium increase and the lack of period during pregnancy further increases the amount of iron available in the body.
“Therefore, supplementation is not necessary, though ensuring to eat a varied diet with an array of different coloured vegetables and fruits and different legumes and grains is crucial.“
However, the supplementation she does believe is advisable for any vegan is vitamin B12, “which cannot be obtained from a vegan diet, but is imperative for optimal growth of the foetus”.
The nutritionist also recommends vitamin D supplements between the months of October and March for anyone, not just vegans.
She said: “We do not get adequate amounts of sunlight to produce it here in the UK.”
Sophie also recommends considering omega 3 supplements, as they are necessary for the normal development of the baby’s brain and eyes.
In fact, she believes a plant-based diet can sometimes be beneficial from a nutrition point of view.
She said: “Like any diet, it can be approached in a healthy or a non-healthy way. Including more crisps, doughnuts and sugar drinks will not be beneficial for mother or baby.
“However, basing a diet on wholesome plant-based products, including vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, seeds and legumes, has a vast array of reported benefits.
“Not only do these foods provide ample of micronutrients, including vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients, they are also fantastic sources of fibre and are low in saturated fats.”
The foetus is very susceptible to nutritional imbalances and insufficient nutrients will not give mother and growing baby the support they need, according to Sophie.
This is particularly true in the early stages of pregnancy, and during the second trimester, “food choice is critical”, she said.
Sophie continued: “During this stage, the growing baby has low energy needs (approximately 100 more calories in a day), but the mineral and vitamin needs are high.
“Some nutrients are more difficult to obtain from a vegan diet - for example iron and calcium.” |
Collision insurance can help pay for repairs to your vehicle if you hit an object, such as another car, a fence, or a snowbank. Unlike liability coverage, no matter who's at fault collision coverage can help pay for repairs to your vehicle.
Adding collision insurance to your car insurance policy can be a great supplement to liability insurance, but there are other factors to consider to know if collision coverage makes sense for your situation.
Let's take a closer look at collision insurance and what it covers.
Collision insurance covers physical damage to your vehicle if it strikes something or something strikes it, regardless of who's at fault. This may include:
Damage to your car in an accident you cause
Damage to your car if you hit an object, such as a fence or pole
Damage to your car if someone else hits you (the other driver's liability insurance could also pay for this damage)
Collision insurance doesn't cover any damages to other vehicles, property, or people involved in an accident, and it may not cover accessories or special equipment that you've added to your vehicle. It also doesn't cover damage to your vehicle that results from something other than hitting another car or object.
Here are some examples:
Hail or other types of storm damage
Hitting an animal, such as a deer
Damage to another vehicle
Damage to private property, such as a mailbox
Medical bills for anyone involved in the accident
When determining whether you should purchase collision insurance, consider:
Vehicle value: Collision insurance doesn't pay out more than the value of your vehicle, so factor in the worth of your car when determining if collision insurance is right for you.
Accident costs: According to the Insurance Information Institute, collision claims are one of the most expensive types of claims, averaging $3,750—second only to bodily injury claims. The average collision claim costs nearly triple the amount of the average annual car insurance premium in some states, according to Bankrate.
Location: Depending on where you live, road conditions can vary throughout the year and you may drive in weather conditions that increase your likelihood of a collision. In fact, our data shows that collision accidents occur 6 percent more often during the winter months, on average.
Also consider that collision claims are one of the most commonly filed auto insurance claims, but don’t necessarily involve other drivers. Our data shows that more collision accidents involve a stationary object versus another moving vehicle.
While you should carefully review every coverage option when determining your auto insurance policy, collision insurance is important coverage to consider adding.
No states legally mandate collision insurance, but if you have a loan on your vehicle, the lender may require you to carry it along with comprehensive insurance to fulfill an insurance requirement.
Adding collision insurance can also provide peace of mind—versus having only the minimum legal requirements—by helping to reduce your out-of-pocket costs in case of an accident.
Because collision insurance covers no more than the value of your vehicle at the time of the accident, the collision coverage limit is usually not adjustable. To calculate how much that would be:
Take the value of your vehicle and subtract your deductible—the amount of money you'll pay out of pocket for an accident before your insurance provider will cover the remaining collision costs. This should give you a good estimate of how much benefit collision coverage would provide.
Insurance companies typically have coverage options with different deductible amounts. If you choose a plan with a lower deductible, your premium—the amount you pay for your policy—will increase. The higher the deductible, the lower your premium.
Additionally, collision insurance has a limit. Since it solely covers damages to your vehicle from an accident, the maximum value of its coverage will be the value of your vehicle, factoring in depreciation. If your vehicle is totaled in an accident, your collision coverage would cover the value of your vehicle minus your deductible.
Let's say your vehicle is valued at $3,500 and is totaled in an accident. If your deductible is $500, your insurer would pay $3,000 for your collision claim.
Collision insurance can help pay for damage to your vehicle, while liability insurance helps cover damage to another person's vehicle if you're at fault in an accident. Liability coverage can also help pay for the other person's medical expenses, legal fees, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Collision insurance is also optional, whereas liability insurance is a legal requirement in most states.
If you need to rent a car, it's important to make sure that the rental is covered by insurance. If your personal car insurance policy includes collision insurance, it may also cover your rental car.
However, it's important to get in touch with your insurance provider to make sure your rental car will be covered under your current policy. If not, you may need to purchase the rental company's insurance coverage.
Do I need collision insurance on an older car?
Collision insurance only pays up to the current value of your car, minus your deductible. So, if your car is older and not worth as much, collision insurance might not make sense.
If you do add collision coverage to your policy, it's a good idea to make sure your vehicle is worth more than the deductible, otherwise you could end up paying entirely out of pocket to repair or replace your car.
Filing a claim can impact your premium, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will. Insurance rates are based on factors such as your age, location, your car, and your driving record. In general, avoiding accidents can help keep your car insurance rates lower.
No, collision insurance is not legally required in Florida, or in most other states. However, if you lease your car or have a loan on it, the owner or lender may require you to have collision coverage.
Have you made a lot of collision claims? We've still got you covered with high-risk auto insurance.

Is King Dollar getting demoted?
Since late 2014, the greenback has been the “talk of the town”. In addition to dollar strength choking corporate earnings, it has played a big part in a commodity decline of historical proportion. As a commodity broker, with a front row seat to the chaos, I can attest the currency market is perhaps the single most influential driver of asset prices. The correlations between the dollar and other assets is real, and shouldn’t be overlooked. Before speculating in stocks, commodities, or even bonds; one must be aware of the currency market landscape.
Although it is too early to confirm, it certainly feels like Tuesday’s speech by Janet Yellen was the final straw for the dollar bulls. Near the December highs, the currency markets were assuming several interest rates hikes in 2016; thus, they had successfully priced in at least three or four of them. However, compliments to a rocky start to the rate hike campaign in the financial markets, the Fed Chair is pumping the brakes. In theory, this should lure bullish dollar, and bearish euro, traders into continued position liquidation. Keep in mind, although the dollar index is used as a benchmark for the greenback, it isn’t necessarily a popular vehicle used to place monetary bets on its fate. Most looking to go short the dollar, generally buy the euro, and vice versa.
In the futures markets, we’ve already seen large speculators, who are considered to be the “smart money”, liquidate most of their bearish bets in the euro. Specifically, they’ve shifted from a massive net short position from roughly 170,000 contracts late last year, to less than 70,000 now. However, we noticed something odd, in the ETF market. The EUO (UltraShort Euro ETF) has about $404 million in assets vs. $300 million the FXE, which is the primary long euro ETF. In short, those using the equity markets for currency speculation are still overly bearish the Euro. We’ve had a lot of time to think about this, and we’ve concluded those buying currency ETFs, as opposed to utilizing the futures or FX markets to speculate in currencies, are likely using much slower triggers to enter and exit speculations. Further, as a whole, they are likely less sophisticated speculators because ETFs are a highly inefficient means of currency speculation. Thus, we believe the futures market is leading the charge, and the ETF market will soon follow.
The dollar index has been trading in a messy, but valid, trading range since late 2015. If the sideways “trend” continues, we should be looking at a decline toward 93.00 in the index. However, if prices break below 93.00, which we believe is a probable scenario, we could see a significant repricing. After all, momentum indicators, such as RSI are trending lower, and bullish dollar sentiment appears to be waning.
On the flipside, the RSI and MACD plotted on a weekly euro chart, are decisively bullish. However, overhead resistance near $1.1490, and again near $1.1730 pose a threat to the bull camp. Nevertheless, we believe the dye is case for a breakout! |

Participating for the first time in exercises with South Korea and Japan, the Marine Corps F-35B Joint Strike Fighters flew in a show-of-force flyover in direct response to North Korea’s recent provocative missile launch.
On Aug. 30, the short-takeoff and vertical-landing version of the jet flew as part of a “sequenced bilateral mission” with other aircraft belonging to the allied air force.
Two B-1Bs from Andersen Air Force Base, Guam; four U.S. Marine F-35Bs from Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan; two Japan Air Self-Defense Force F-15Js and four Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF) F-15Ks flew the mission to “emphasize the combined ironclad commitment to the defense of allies and the U.S. homeland,” according to a statement from U.S. Pacific Command (PACOM).
“Enhancing combined military readiness through integrated missions ensures national leaders of viable and ready military options,” PACOM said.
The mission was conducted in direct response to North Korea’s intermediate-range ballistic missile launch, which flew directly over northern Japan on Aug. 28 amid rising tension over North Korea’s nuclear and ballistic missile development programs.
Over the course of the 10-hour mission, the F-35Bs, B-1B bombers and Japanese fighters flew together over waters near Kyushu, Japan. The U.S. and ROKAF aircraft then flew across the Korean Peninsula and practiced attack capabilities by releasing live weapons at the Pilsung Range training area before returning to their respective home stations.
“North Korea’s actions are a threat to our allies, partners and homeland, and their destabilizing actions will be met accordingly,” said Gen. Terrence J. O’Shaughnessy, commander, U.S. Pacific Air Forces, who just returned from an unscheduled visit to Japan to meet with his counterparts. “This complex mission clearly demonstrates our solidarity with our allies and underscores the broadening cooperation to defend against this common regional threat. Our forward-deployed force will be the first to the fight, ready to deliver a lethal response at a moment’s notice if our nation calls.” |
UPDATE — This story was updated to include information from the official Pentagon contract announcement released at 5:00 p.m. and a statement from Raytheon.
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Army has awarded a $624.6 million contract to Raytheon Technologies to build Stinger anti-aircraft missiles to restock its own supply after sending roughly 1,400 Stingers to Ukraine to bolster the nation’s defense against the Russian invasion.
“Work locations and funding will be determined with each order, with an estimated completion date of June 30, 2026,” the Pentagon’s contract announcement Friday states. Reuters was first to report the contract award, expected for several weeks.
Raytheon will build 1,300 new Stinger missiles, according to a statement issued shortly following the contract announcement.
“The contract includes provisions for engineering support, as well as the test equipment and support needed to address obsolescence, modernize key components, and accelerate production,” according to the company statement.
Stinger and Javelin have been in high-demand in Ukraine as effective means to repel Russia’s invasion. The Pentagon has the Stingers and sent more than 5,500 Javelin anti-tank missiless since Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, among other defense materiel.
Congress this month passed a $40 billion spending package for Ukraine that authorizes the Biden administration to send another $11 billion in U.S. military equipment to the country; the package includes $8.7 billion to backfill stocks already sent.
The Army hasn’t bought any Stingers since 2005 as it begins an effort to design the next generation of man-portable anti-aircraft missile while upgrading its current inventory.
The Army said prior to Friday’s news that it would be awarding a contract to Raytheon to address the Stinger’s most critical obsolete part, its dual-detector assembly, a spokesman for the Army’s acquisitions office told Defense News. The Stinger’s dual-detector seeker uses infrared and ultraviolet sensors to locate targets.
The Army also is working on a proposal to use advanced procurement dollars to buy long-lead parts and materials for advanced munitions “in full coordination with” the undersecretary of defense for acquisition and sustainment, the spokesman said.
Raytheon CEO Greg Hayes has said his company may not be able to make more Stingers until at least 2023 and, because some components are no longer commercially available, the firm will have to redesign electronics in the missile’s seeker head.
The Pentagon also recently issued a contract award of $9.9 million to Raytheon and Lockheed Martin to modify a preexisting contract for Javelin anti-tank missile engineering services as part of the effort to replenish stocks of that weapon, which is also being sent to Ukraine in large numbers.
The award follows two other contract modifications made this month worth $239 million and $309 million for Javelin production to be completed by late 2025 to backfill stocks sent to Ukraine but also supply Norway, Albania, Latvia and Thailand. The contract, which dates to 2019, has a ceiling of about $2.2 billion.
Lockheed CEO Jim Taiclet said the company aims to nearly double production for Javelin anti-tank missiles to 4,000 per year, but it would take “a number of months, maybe even a couple of years,” and that Congress could help by reshoring microprocessor manufacturing.
Additionally, the Pentagon is poised, according to CNN, to up the ante in Ukraine by also sending High Mobility Artillery Rocket Launchers and Multiple Launch Rocket Systems to the country. The Biden administration is expected to announce the move as part of its next military assistance package as early as next week, CNN reported.
New contracts to replace Javelin and Stingers sent from U.S. stockpiles were expected to be finalized earlier in the month — a very rapid pace for the Army, its acquisition chief, Douglas Bush, told lawmakers in recent congressional testimony. However, the timeline to replace the service’s Javelins could take 18 months, Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said in separate testimony.
“We’re working with both Raytheon and Lockheed to see what they can do to speed up production,” Wormuth said, adding later that congressional funding would help replenish munition stocks.
Earlier this month, Pentagon spokeswoman Jessica Maxwell reiterated that the department has been able to send Ukraine its weapons “without affecting military readiness, and we still have the necessary inventory for our needs.”
“We are continuing to work with industry to replenish U.S. inventories and backfill stocks of allies and partners, and we’ve requested additional resources from Congress through the supplemental bill to continue this work,” she said in a statement.

God’s Word is the foundation of a christian marriage. Or at least it should be.
Married couples who want to honor God and have a strong marriage must seek biblical wisdom through individual daily prayers and regular devotional times. But besides individual daily devotions, one of the best ways to have a successful marriage and foster a lifelong love is to spend couple time seeking god’s design for marriage, praying together and studying the Word of God.
I know what you’re thinking…what about busy couples who don’t have time for quiet times together? Or maybe you’re thinking that these sound like good things, but that you already have a healthy marriage. I do believe that many marriage relationships can be successful without spending a long time studying the Bible together, but if you’re looking to get on the same page about important topics such as parenting, finances, or other topics, studying the Bible together can be a great marriage resource.
One obstacle many couples face when seeking to spend time together in God’s Word is the large number of couples devotionals on the market. There are many that give fresh insight into how to have a happy marriage, and we don’t have time or space to talk about them all in this article, but I want to give you a few that might be great for your marriage, and then I want to give you an important tip on implementing these and moving towards a love story that seeks to follow the Holy Spirit even in a crazy stage of life.
Best Marriage Devotionals
Instead of reviewing a ton of devotionals, I’m just going to talk about what I believe are four of the best devotionals on the market at this time. You can search on Amazon for more, but I know these four are great for christian couples. (By the way, the links below are affiliate links, meaning if you click and buy one, I get a small percentage of the sale.)
The Meaning of Marriage: A Couple’s Devotional: A Year of Daily Devotions by Timothy Keller and Kathy Keller – In these daily devotional readings, the Kellers draw on years of marriage (they’ve been married for over 43 years) as well as biblical insights to help both husband and wife with their spiritual growth. This book could easily be used for a year of devotions, and it helps with Bible studies and practical tips to improve your marriage and have a better relationship.
Devotions for a Sacred Marriage: A Year of Weekly Devotions for Couples by Gary Thomas – This book gives weekly couples devotions for those who are newly married or who have been married for a while now. This devotional is a wonderful way to get started spending time together and seeking God’s purpose for your marriage. Since it’s only once a week, this might be a great way to begin spending time in God’s Word as a couple.
The Love Dare Day by Day: This devotional is an extension of the original book and builds on the Scriptural principles of the love dare. It includes weekly dares and daily readings. The premise of the love dare is unconditional love, and the idea is very practical and would work for couples who are seeking practical ways to implement God’s Word in their everyday lives.
A Couple’s Guide to a Growing Marriage: A Bible Study by Gary Chapman is a devotional designed to help couples grow together instead of growing apart. It focuses on these things: Invite God into the details of your life and marriage, listen in ways that deepen intimacy and friendship, understand your spouse and be understood, keep your love fresh and mutually engaging, and manage conflict constructively, not destructively. These principles are important if we are to live out God’s purpose for our marriages.
BONUS TIP: If you struggle with implementing daily devotions with your spouse: Pick a time frame. You don’t have to try to do this every day for the rest of your life. One of the great things about a challenge like The Love Dare is that it is simply a 40-day challenge. You could potentially challenge each other to simply have devotions every day for a month or on Sunday evening or even just one day per month. No matter what you do, I’m sure you’ll find that a thriving marriage has a strong foundation in God’s Word.
What devotionals have you read with your spouse? What’s an obstacle that you face when it comes to spending time together in God’s Word? Let me know in the comments below. |

Best Method for Hydrochloric Acid Gasby Argox
[ Back to the Chemistry Archive ]
The experienced chemists on this forum will probably scoff at the notion that anything so simple as hydrochloric acid gas (hydrogen chloride or HCl(g)) would require careful explanation as to proper methods, set-up and precautions. The grim reality is that novice chemists have killed themselves as a result of ignorance regarding HCl(g).
A cursory review of Rhodium’s page and the Hive search engine (TFSE) regarding methods to produce HCl(g) and store it for future use reveal incomplete information, poorly written information, and a certain degree of debate among Hive members as to the best method. This document provides outstanding examples of ghetto devices for the manufacture of HCl(g), most of them dangerous, none reusable, and all obvious evidence of illicit activity. HCl(g) is not illegal to own or make. It is sold commercially as a compressed gas at 613 psi in CS cylinders. The commercial cylinder requires a CGA 330 fitting and single stage SS regulator (USD 350). The regulator must be purged with nitrogen after every use; even so it has a limited life span and will require refit or replacement on a regular basis. Commercial cylinders of HCl are regulated. The supplier is required to fill out certain forms and send the data to certain government agencies with every purchase.
Most chemists, legitimate and clandestine, prepare HCl(g) in the laboratory, to avoid the cost, hassle, and danger of compressed gas. A review was conducted of four OTC methods, and the best method was determined.
Four common OTC methods were examined:
All four methods produce HCl(g) in varying yields. However, one method was clearly superior to the others based on yield, speed of reaction, and, most importantly, in situ clean-up and reload of reactor. The best method to produce HCl(g) according to these criteria is reaction 1 - dripping muriatic acid over sulfuric acid. For the benefit of the novice, a detailed discussion of this method follows.
In addition, two commonly used solvents were examined (acetone and IPA) to determine which was the best for collecting and storing HCl(g), since there are empirical benefits to be obtained by collecting and storing HCl(g) for future use in order to precisely dose certain bases, rather than the more uncertain, unwieldy and dangerous practice of direct gassing those bases. It was determined that IPA is superior to acetone.
Best Method. Dripping muriatic acid over sulphuric acid.
HCl(aq) + H2SO4 => HCl(g) + H2SO4(aq)
This method is superior to others for the following reasons:
To produce HCl(g) with this method in North America one should buy muriatic acid and drain cleaner from the (big orange) hardware store and 99% isopropanol (IPA) from any drug store. The novice should make sure the label of the muriatic acid says "contains hydrochloric acid" and "muriatic acid commercial 31%," make sure the label of the drain cleaner says "contains sulfuric acid," and make sure the label on the IPA says 99% and "isopropyl alcohol."
There is no need to test the muriatic acid, other than making sure that the label does indeed say muriatic acid. Confirmation that it is muriatic acid comes when the top is taken off the bottle and the characteristic fog of acid vapor rises out of the bottle. Do not breath this vapor: it is pure hydrochloric acid produced by the reaction of HCl(g) with water vapor in the air.
Test the drain cleaner/sulfuric acid by weighing 500 cc. Drain cleaner/sulfuric acid is a heavy dark liquid and 500 cc should weigh between 917 and 920 grams. If 500 cc weighs substantially less than 917g, then it has been diluted with water and cannot be used. Look for a different brand of drain cleaner or obtain commercial-grade sulfuric acid, a non-watched chemical. The specific gravity of sulfuric acid is 1.84. 1000cc weighs 1840g. 500cc weighs 920g.
Test 99% IPA by dripping one drop onto a clean mirror and holding the mirror up against a light bulb. If the IPA is truly 99%, then the drop will evaporate without leaving any smaller drops on the mirror. The presence of a number of miniscule cloudy drops on the mirror after the initial drop has evaporated indicates water contamination. If this be the case, buy another brand of IPA or dehydrate the IPA with 3A molecular sieve, anhydrous MgSO4 or similar anhydrous salt. The various methods of removing moisture from alcohols and other solvents have been thoroughly discussed in numerous posts.
Setting up equipment
This discussion of equipment is predicated on two personal philosophies:
The novice may find this discussion of laboratory glassware daunting. However, the benefits obtained from using proper glassware outweigh the costs, as per the above two points. (Note: the Rhodium chemistry page contains a write-up by Psychokitty describing a gas generator using beer bottles and syringes. That write-up is a "ghetto" alternative for the novice CC who needs only grams of HCl(g) rather than kilos and who cannot afford good equipment.)
The gas generator consists of four main pieces:
These are connected by a claisen adapter, two 3-way vacuum adapters (suggested is a custom vacuum adapter that includes a stopcock for pressure relief), and joint-to-hose adapters. A stopcock or way of relieving line pressure should be placed between the reactor and the bubbler, and the bubbler and the receiver. All glassware should use standard taper joints, 24/40 is fine (it is suggested that rubber stoppers not be substituted for standard taper joints, rubber stoppers will degrade in the presence of HCl and eventually leak). Lab-grade silicone grease must be used on all glass joints (vaseline should not be substituted for lab-grade silicone grease). Also suggested is that each glass joint be secured with a Keck clip (24/40 Keck clips are green) or SS wire clip. All of the above glassware should probably be part of any novice chemist’s equipment inventory. In addition, to properly perform this method for producing HCl(g), the chemist should also purchase 2 magnetic stirrer hotplate combos and several magnetic stirbars (egg-shaped stirbars must be used for RB flasks). These stirrer/hotplates will be useful for many other reactions and will form an essential part of the equipment for other syntheses.
None of this glassware or equipment is watched or controlled or illegal to own, as long as any RB flask is not 10L, 12L, 20L or 22L in size. A 2L equalizing addition funnel, a 5L FB or RB flask for the reactor, a 500 ml RB flask for the bubbler, and a 1L RB or ehrlenmeyer flask for the receiver are sufficient to produce substantial - even industrial - quantities of HCl(g) in a day, plus this glassware can be used for many other interesting reactions.
Muriatic acid, a mixture of water and HCl, is slowly dripped into a stirred flask containing sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid has a strong affinity for water. The sulfuric acid dehydrates the muriatic acid, absorbing water and liberating HCl(g). The liberated HCl is then bubbled through a smaller quantity of sulfuric acid to remove any trace of water vapor, and then the dry gas is absorbed in stirred, cold IPA. By weighing the IPA before and after gas absorption, the exact production of HCl can be determined. This exact amount of HCl is very useful in subsequent reactions, since stoichiometric amounts of HCl can be dosed into base/solvent mixtures, in contrast to direct gassing of such mixtures, which is a "hit or miss" and exothermic operation. The HCl/IPA mix is stable and can be stored for future use, unlike HCl/acetone mix, which quickly degrades. IPA is not hygroscopic as is acetone, another important consideration. (Bees may note that this information is in contrast to several major Hive write-ups where HCl loading into acetone and/or direct gassing is recommended.)
Use 2 parts by volume of sulfuric acid/drain cleaner for every 1 part of muriatic acid. Put another way: use 2 bottles of drain cleaner for every 1 bottle of muriatic acid. (This will provide an excess of sulfuric acid necessary for proper dehydration of the muriatic.) The most important consideration is to constantly stir the sulfuric acid/drain cleaner while muriatic acid is being dripped. If the sulfuric acid is not stirred, a layer of muriatic acid will form on top of the sulfuric acid and when the flask is moved for any reason the two layers will mix with violent release of HCl(g). THEREFORE always stir the sulfuric acid while adding muriatic acid, this stirring cannot be avoided without disasterous results--so the magnetic stirrer is essential. Repeating again, ALWAYS stir the sulfuric acid while adding muriatic -do not shake by hand- stir with a magnetic stirrer and telflon coated stirbar. The gas bubbler is another important part of the set-up because it allows visual evidence of how much gas is being produced and it removes any water vapor that might come over with the HCl(g). The goal is to produce anhydrous HCl(g), since water vapor is detrimental to most hydrochloride crystallizations for which one would use HCl/IPA. Since HCl(g) is completely absorbed by cold IPA to a loading of 25% or greater, there will be no bubbles coming out of the receiver flask after the initial air is driven out of the gas generator set-up, therefore the bubbler provides the only visual indication as to whether the gas generator is going full blast or has stopped or has sprung a leak (although in the case of a leak, the characteristic mist of HCl(g) and the smell will be evident).
Suck-back occurs when the amount of gas being generated cannot overcome the rate of absorption. A trap must be placed between the gas generator and the receiver as a safety precaution to collect any IPA sucked-back. To control suck-back, a stopcock placed before the bubbler and before the receiver will allow the operator to relieve line pressure.
Do not use a dispersion tube while absorbing HCl(g) into IPA, as has been recommended in other posts. The dispersion tube is not needed since HCl(g) is immediately soluble in cold IPA. The dispersion tube could increase line pressure and cause a joint or flask to pop. 3/8" ID polyethylene tubing such as can be purchased at the (big orange) hardware store is sufficient for both the bubbler and the receiver. Stainless steel tubing is not recommend -this is in contrast to what has been suggested in another major Hive write-up- since HCl will corrode stainless steel and chromium/nickel/iron chlorides will go into solution and possibly contaminate the final product. Telfon hose is recommended for glass joint to hose connections; however, the clear vinyl hose found at the (big orange) hardware store can be used once. All hose connections must be fastened with hose clamps (obtained from any hardware store).
With proper fittings this apparatus will not leak and will not smell, but working under a fume hood is always a good general practice.
Yield is close to theoretical. Over 300g of HCl(g) will be produced from a 900ml bottle of muriatic acid in about 2 hours of slow dripping. Once the gas production begins to diminish, the sulfuric acid in the reactor can be heated and additional HCl(g) recovered (this is where the stirrer-hotplate combo comes in handy). If more than 10kg of HCl is needed in one day, then acid addition will have to be much more rapid, requiring larger size flasks and larger bore tubing to accomodate the increased reaction rate, but the novice should not need more than a few kilos of gas in one day, which can be generated with a 5L reactor.
Clean-up and reloading.
The most important advantage of this method is the fact that without taking the apparatus apart, the spent sulfuric acid can be pumped or siphoned (by vacuum) out of the reactor and then poured into a plastic pail of cold water and flushed down the toilet (after all, the label did say "drain cleaner"). Local water treatment plants can handle sulfuric acid no problem and those drains sure get a good cleaning. Reload is as simple as pouring or pumping another couple of bottles of drain cleaner into the reactor. None of the other common methods are as simple to unload and reload, their yields do not come close to theoretical, they are not appropriate for larger scale production. A discussion of the other methods follows:
Reacting sulfuric acid and table salt. Note that contrary to many posts and even government web pages this reaction produces sodium bi-sulfate, not sodium sulfate. Therefore the sulfuric acid:salt mole/mole ratio is 1:1, not 1:2. The reaction mechanism is:
H2SO4 + NaCl => HCl(g) + NaHSO4
(The reaction of sodium bi-sulfate and table salt to produce hydrogen chloride only takes place at elevated temperature (+250ºC).) Hive Bees fervently defend this method of dripping sulfuric acid over table salt, yet it is inferior to the recommended method for these reasons:
A third method is heating table salt and sodium bisulphate. The reaction mechanism is:
NaCl(s) + NaHSO4(s) + delta temp. => HCl(g) + Na2SO4(s)
This method is also inferior for the following reasons:
A fourth method is boiling muriatic acid. The idea is to reduce the solubility product of HCl in water by boiling muriatic acid. However, hydrogen chloride forms a constant boiling mixture with water, such that a great deal of water vapor comes over with the HCl and quickly dilutes the sulfuric acid bubbler. Yield is unacceptable compared to any of the above reactions. Although the reactor can be pumped or siphoned out and reloaded, the remaining liquid still contains substantial amounts of HCl which even cooled and poured into water releases HCl vapor into the work area, very unpleasant to handle, and not something to pour down the drain since it is highly corrosive. An inferior method and not recommended at all.
Of the four common methods to produce HCl(g) using OTC ingredients, one method was shown to be superior in terms of yield, reaction time, controllability, and ease of unload and reload, which is the most important aspect for larger-scale production. The superior method is dripping muriatic acid into sulphuric acid, preferably with the gas generator equipment described. It was also determined that IPA is superior to acetone as a solvent in which to store HCl for future use, since it will not degrade over time, is non-hygroscopic, and is compatible with common processes that require hydrogen chloride to precipitate hydrochloride salts from solvent/base mixes. It is a personal opinion that HCl(g) should be dissolved into cold IPA regardless of whether gas is generated as described above or obtained from a compressed gas cylinder, before dosing a solvent/base mix for two reasons: |
