When did you first start getting involved with music?
That’s kind of hard to pinpoint. I definitely remember around the time I was in middle school the p2p music sharing was getting really popular… you know like LimeWire, Kazaa that type of stuff. My introduction to that shifted me from listening to whatever was on the radio and pushed me more towards finding whatever I wanted to listen to and putting it on my iPod. From that point, I started writing poetry and raps, just for fun. I also started recording myself around then. When I got to high school and started showing my material to friends, I realized that I had some talent and could take it seriously.
Back in 2011, you were on a tear on dropping music. Looking back, how big of a project was Coloring Outside The Lines, for you?
Coloring Outside The Lines as a whole was a huge project for me, mostly from a development standpoint. Prior to that point I had spent my first 3 or 4 projects recording and mixing myself, and I honestly had no idea wtf I was doing. On COTL, I recorded every song in a studio (Soundscape to be specific) which was a new experience. Also the video I put out for the song “A Nigger in Northface” did really well, and that earned me a spot on the scene here in Chicago. I think most people’s intro to me was the success of that video.
While creating Maudlin for a few years, do you ever get worried about the current climate we live in, as the ‘microwave’ era? You can put years of effort into music, but the content may only last for a little bit of time.
Hmmm, not really? That’s not something I think about. That might be because some of what contributes to that is completely out of my control. But I’ve always felt if the shit is good it’ll stick with people because that’s what all of my favorite albums have done to me. Also, that’s how I treat most of my own music anyway. By the time it’s finally out I’ve listened to it so many fucking times that I want nothing to do with it haha.
Lets get into Maudlin, what sparked the concept behind this project?
I kinda married a few ideas that eventually became Maudlin. As I’m sure you can tell, things going on in my personal life definitely drove the content. I also wanted to make a really somber and emotional project for a while, but really just for fun; creating is my favorite part of doing music. Then, as I got more and more carried away with the idea of me singing I decided I wanted to do mostly that on the project. It just made sense. 2 years and some change later here we are haha.
I want to go into the meaning behind a few songs, first, An African Werewolf in America
Ok, so I really *really* love having the race convo via perspectives that we don’t always get to hear. Werewolf is my attempt to look at how fear can be used to foster racism; exemplified by the fear of a fictional white woman crossing paths with a black man on her walk home. I wanted to paint that picture and then pose questions to the listener on what exactly led this woman to be so afraid, then juxtapose her fear with the fear that black man might have while minding his business, walking home just like she is.
Next, Hello My Name Is
So like I said, I really love approaching the convo of race in different ways… this record is another example of that. Because race is such a serious issue, a lot of art we see about it has an understandably serious or confrontational tone. If the goal of that art is to enlighten, I’ve always been curious how effective of a teaching method that is to those who are challenged to truly comprehend certain aspects of racism. One aspect is “how do things like slavery and systematic oppression affect us today?” I wanted to answer that question in a friendly, welcoming, non-condescending kind of tone, with the simplest explanation possible. I almost wanted the song to feel like a coloring book on racism. I felt like the easiest way to do that was to talk about how constant of a reminder we (descendants of American slavery) have that our entire history was erased.. stolen from us. That reminder begins as soon as were born and given the last name of a slave owner.
After the release of Maudlin, are you now more than ever ready to give the world “SURPRISE”
Idk if the release of Maudlin has made *me* more ready to put out Surprise. It’s really supposed to make you guys more ready for it haha. I probably became the most ready I’ve ever been right before I really locked in and started working on Maudlin. I was starting to get satisfied with the sound and direction of Surprise and decided I needed to shelve it for a second to finish and release Maudlin first, which was always meant to serve as a prequel of sorts.
If you could describe your music in three words, what would they be?
Alternative hip hop soul? Idk hahaha. | <urn:uuid:ecce3239-e9a1-41fa-b241-3d3fc7efec78> | CC-MAIN-2018-47 | https://chicagocreatives.co/2017/12/30/get-to-know-legit/ | 2018-11-20T16:02:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-47/segments/1542039746465.88/warc/CC-MAIN-20181120150950-20181120172950-00077.warc.gz | en | 0.98106 | 1,118 | [

Owning a company like a bank or an insurance agency, or so on, is something that you know gives you many duties to take care of. One duty that a business owner must take care of is the security and the identity of his or her clients – one must make sure that these are protected at all times. One will be relieved to know that this is quite easy to do when he or she is able to find the best company offering identity and access governance services. One who finds such a company, then, can be sure that when he or she hires its services, it will be possible to gain a lot of benefits that are wonderful and worthwhile altogether.
The first thing that people will be able to gain when they hire identity and access governance services is the benefit of protecting their brand. In the world of today, there are many people of malicious intent online, people who may want to steal, from you, the private information of your valued clients. It is good to know that when they hire the best identity and access governance services, they can protect their company and their clients in a way that is truly reliable.
Hiring the best identity and access governance services is also something that you should do because when you do so, you can be sure that you can save time and energy. You might already know that protecting your information and preventing access by unauthorized persons can be a job that is complicated and difficult, especially with the number of skilled hackers that can be found today. When they hire a company to do this for them, then, they can save so much time and so much energy through not having to think of these things any longer.
Hiring identity and access governance services is also a very good idea, as when you do so, you can be sure that you will be able to receive more than the value of the money that you spend. One can be sure that the fees required will in no wise be very expensive, and what is more, they will be worthwhile, because he or she can keep valued clients.
Hiring the best identity and access governance services, then, is something that you should do because when you do so, you will be able to gain a lot of benefits that are wonderful and worthwhile altogether. | <urn:uuid:4987820d-ed2a-48c5-be39-2cab4c450eed> | CC-MAIN-2018-47 | http://manmat.org/what-do-you-know-about-companies/ | 2018-11-21T19:59:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-47/segments/1542039750800.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20181121193727-20181121215727-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.977778 | 452 | [

Manufacturers have reaped a windfall as the fast-expanding Chinese middle class hits the road, but clouds loom as Volkswagen, Toyota, General Motors, and other top nameplates pitch their latest models starting this Wednesday at China's biggest auto showcase.
Passenger-vehicle sales have nearly quintupled over the past decade and logged another stellar performance in 2016, surging 14.9 percent to a record 24.38 million, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers.
But volume was skewed upward in 2016 by a government purchase incentive. As China's decades-long economic boom loses lift, sales growth will essentially be flat this year and could even shrink in 2018 for the first time in memory, consultancy IHS Markit said last week.
In a boon for consumers, IHS Markit said there is already "a major price war descending on the market" as manufacturers and dealers slash prices to move growing stock.
"The threat now for international automakers is that if local players begin cutting prices ... there will be a rampant price war across the market as automakers compete to attract new car buyers," it said.
Such troubles must be kept in perspective: China is still El Dorado for carmakers.
Last year's sales set a 26th straight annual high-water mark, handily beating the record 17.55 million cars sold in the United States, which China zoomed past eight years ago to become the planet's top market.
But sales were boosted by the government's halving of a 10-percent purchase tax on small-engine cars in late 2015. That tax has been raised to 7.5 percent this year and will be restored to 10 percent in 2018, with an expected dampening effect on sales.
Death by suffocation
More broadly, analysts say China's automotive landscape is rapidly maturing as consumer tastes evolve, and success will depend on manufacturers' capabilities in meeting those tastes.
China now has a crowded field of mostly domestic carmakers, many of which won't survive, said Johan Karlberg, a Shanghai-based partner with global consultancy Roland Berger.
"There's just not room enough for that many players any more. Many of the smaller ones will simply die a slow, suffocating death," Karlberg said.
Major carmakers remain bullish, but are scrambling to introduce a slew of new models aimed at Chinese consumers during the Shanghai show, which IHS said has taken on "major importance" as the dynamics evolve.
Manufacturers are rushing in particular to capitalise on still fast-growing demand for sport-utility vehicles and "new energy" cars.
Chinese drivers have latched on to both domestic and foreign-made SUVs as leisure interests grow and rising incomes put a second family car in reach. SUV sales are expected to surpass sedans as early as this year.
Ford will even try to sell its American-icon pickup trucks, while expanding its electric offerings.
Analysts say other future drivers lie in China's seemingly never-ending stock of newly-minted middle-class consumers, particularly in populous and fast-growing lower-tier cities, plus the rapid growth in car-hailing and vehicle-sharing services.
"We still have a pretty good period of growth ahead in the Chinese market. It is THE strategic market for global carmakers," said Marc Mechai, an automotive analyst with Accenture in Paris.
"But now, it remains to be seen with which vehicles, and how." | <urn:uuid:8f10073e-bae6-4544-942b-b78bd4406af9> | CC-MAIN-2018-47 | https://auto.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/passenger-vehicle/cars/global-carmakers-converge-on-china-as-rare-slowdown-looms/58205467 | 2018-11-21T20:46:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-47/segments/1542039750800.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20181121193727-20181121215727-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.95677 | 710 | [

Play Guitar! turns your Windows 8 machine into a virtual guitar. You can press and strum strings, just like a real guitar. Play Guitar! helps you learn what notes lie on the frets of the guitar. It is a very useful tool for every aspiring guitarist. Now, there are available an advanced chord editor and the possibility to use guitar capo (only for PRO users, In-app purchase) The app is easy to use and light.
Alright, now you know five chords. But what’s next? How do you keep moving forward and improving on the guitar? If you’ve made it this far, I highly recommend joining my free email newsletter. As my thanks for signing up, I’ll send you a free ebook with all the best chords for a beginner to learn to play guitar with. As well, you’ll receive a free video lesson once a week that will dig into a particular technique or idea on the guitar. It’s tons of fun, and you’ll learn lots along the way! Sign up below…
Español: tocar la guitarra, Deutsch: Gitarre spielen lernen, Português: Tocar Guitarra, Français: jouer de la guitare, Русский: играть на гитаре, 中文: 弹吉他, Čeština: Jak se naučit hrát na kytaru, Bahasa Indonesia: Bermain Gitar, हिन्दी: गिटार बजाएं, العربية: العزف على الجيتار, Tiếng Việt: Chơi Đàn Ghi ta, Italiano: Suonare la Chitarra, 日本語: ギターを弾く, ไทย: เล่นกีตาร์, Nederlands: Gitaar spelen, 한국어: 기타 치는 법, Türkçe: Gitar Nasıl Çalınır
I would especially like to stress the gentle approach Justin takes with two key aspects that contributed to my development as a musician - music theory and ear training. Justin has succeeded in conveying the importance and profoundness of understanding music both theoretically and through your ears while maintaining a simple and accessible approach to them, all while sticking to what is ultimately the most important motto: 'If it sounds good, it is good'.
Start playing the different notes and hold the different shapes. Once you have a basic understanding of how the notes are played throughout the song, you can start to hold each of the chords. If the song consists of chords that you're used to playing, it will make the process easier. If the song uses different chords, it may take some time and adjustment to get used to them. Practice the chords separately if they are unfamiliar to you.
Learning to play the guitar is a life-long process; it will not happen overnight despite what many of the hucksters on the internet may tell you. As such, you are best to develop some reasonable expectations of how quickly you will progress. There will be challenges along the way (yes, your fingers will hurt!) and too many budding guitarists have given up prematurely, slid their brand new guitars under their bed, and walked away in disappointment… not realizing that they were oh-so-close to a breakthrough that would have taken them on to the next level. Having a mindset that allows for setbacks here and there will really help you in the long run, because you will find that through every challenge you come out a stronger player on the other side.
I tried several times over the course of 20 years to learn guitar. I purchased guitars, amps, books, private lessons. Nothing ever stuck, until I found justinguitar.com. The only reason I can play guitar today is because of Justin. His courses are well thought out, easy to understand, easy to follow, and easy to make progress on. I can't think of a single product or service that I've ever used in my life that I could recommend more highly than justinguitar.com.
Practice fretting the strings. The frets are the metal strips that run perpendicular to the strings that mark each note. To play a note, press your finger down between the metal strips, not on them. To say that you're playing the third fret means that you place your finger on the string in the gap between the second and third fret. If you hear buzzing, move your finger away from the lowest fret and closer to the higher fret. Hold the string down firmly so that it only vibrates between your finger and your strumming hand, with the tip of your finger doing the pressing.
I have been playing piano and guitar since before my first memories as a child! I have a passion for music that shows. From being classically trained in piano, to conducting my high school marching band, to leading worship at my local church, to playing saxophone in numerous jazz combos/big bands, and singing in my university's choir, I truly have a diverse range of musicality and will use everything that I have learned to make you the musician you aspire to be! I am currently studying music theory at Dallas Baptist University where I am being equipped to be a composer (which is my dream). I am in my second year of college. Thank you for chec ...

Zermatt is about 3 hours away and is an excellent tourist destination. Worth more than one day, so you can spend a full day there.
<<" must see places from Haut-Nendaz ? Where we can go and comeback on the same day ? According to travel time we can find timerequired to travel, but i would like to know how much time we would take/ devote to each place. (i know it's not that logical, but with any ofyours personal perspective any ball park figure)">>How old is the child, and how physicaly fit are the seniors.
What do you mean by "see" as in "must see" ?
Do you want to look out train windows, see from hiking trails, ride to mountain tops via varous kinds of cable cars, walk around cities?
There is a very nice trail along the older rail route from Hohtenn to Brig. (The BLS Südrampe Trail.) Sections can be accessed at different rain stops. It is a fairly easy walk, but has some ups and downs where good shoes/boots with lugged soles are a good idea. Not sure it would match your family's ages/ desires??
At that time of year, you are near or past the end of of the summer season. Many cable cars and some hotels will be closed for between season maintenance. So, if you want to go up on mountains, please check the timetables for specific dates:
If you leave for Haut Nendaz for Bern at 0840, you'll be there in 2 hours and 16 minutes. Bern is a nice place for a half day visit. Walk through the really nice Old Town, up to the Rosegarden ( there will still be a few roses left in October) look out over the city.
Have lunch at the Rose garden, or at either of two places by the Nydegg Brücke - The old Trolley barn - fun
- or he small very good Brasserie Baerengraben right by the bus stop.. Usually busy.
After lunch, you can walk or ride the tram back to the main station.
Not sure if the Bear pits are functioning. Maybe under repair at the moment? They are right by the Nydegg Brücke, too. | <urn:uuid:0a824754-d93d-43ab-8868-0605712806c3> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.myswissalps.com/forum/topic/please-help-creating-itinerary-6-nights-7-days | 2019-11-11T23:07:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496664439.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20191111214811-20191112002811-00117.warc.gz | en | 0.934405 | 478 | [

Another major Nevada gaming property has filed an application to leave NV Energy and purchase electricity from another provider, the eighth company to do so in 2018.
The South Point Hotel and Casino on Dec. 6 filed an application with the Public Utility Commission seeking to leave NV Energy and purchase power from a new provider starting on July 1.
It’s the latest in a rush of casinos and other major Nevada businesses that have sought to take advantage of a state law allowing larger power users to apply and leave NV Energy as a customer, if their exit is found to be in the public interest and if they pay a substantial “impact fee” to offset costs that would otherwise be paid by other customers.
South Point, a 24-story hotel and casino located in the southern part of the Las Vegas valley, gave few details in its application to leave beyond promising to comply with state law, including a provision requiring the company to sell NV Energy an additional 10 percent of the electricity it purchases from a new provider at the price it was bought. It said the casino’s new provider would likely be Exelon Generation Company, and that the property’s peak electric load was 10.63 megawatts (one megawatt is enough to power roughly 750 homes).
It continues a parade of businesses that filed to leave this year, including Boyd Gaming, MSG Las Vegas, a building supplies company north of Las Vegas, the under-construction Raiders stadium, Atlantis Casino Resort Spa, Fulcrum Sierra BioFuels and Station Casinos.
More exit applications have been filed in 2018 than in the last three years combined; Peppermill Resorts was the only company to file an exit application in 2017, and three exit applications were filed in 2016 (Peppermill Resorts, which withdrew its application, Switch and Caesars Entertainment) and 2015 (MGM Resorts, Las Vegas Sands and Wynn Resorts).
The growing number of exits has prompted some entities, including a nonprofit backed by data center giant Switch, to question NV Energy’s resource planning strategy and to call on energy regulators to survey customers who could potentially exit on their future plans.
As of October, NV Energy estimated that it had 42 non-government and six government customers that would be eligible to file an application to leave the utility. | <urn:uuid:f6615fe0-dfaf-46b2-894d-0e0644c02632> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://thenevadaindependent.com/article/south-point-files-to-leave-nv-energy-eighth-to-do-so-this-year | 2019-11-13T10:30:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496667177.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20191113090217-20191113114217-00277.warc.gz | en | 0.96614 | 470 | [

Homeland Security’s Unhappy Anniversary
Two summers ago, I was bumping along in a golf cart with two rather amiable staff from the Department of Homeland Security. We were traversing the 176-acre property of what used to be the grounds of a mental asylum. After billions of dollars in taxpayer money, it would eventually become a sprawling, state-of-the-art headquarters for the Department of Homeland Security, the largest federal complex since the Pentagon was built in 1943 and the third-largest cabinet level department after the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
With flashlights in hand, we toured the forbiddingly decrepit 19th Century main hall, once the flagship administrative offices/patient dormitories of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in southeast Washington, D.C., where poet Ezra Pound was once incarcerated (for treason), and Charles J. Guiteau, who assassinated President James Garfield, was housed until his execution in 1882.
I was told that this building, the size of two football fields, would be the DHS Secretary’s offices. Just the secretary’s staff, along with assorted conference rooms, and a cafeteria. The remaining 14 buildings planned as part of the $3.6 billion project would eventually house 14,000 employees from DHS’s 22 sub-components, including the U.S. Secret Service, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Customs and Border Patrol, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the U.S Coast Guard.
The notion of transforming this property–where a family of deer still roamed and a Civil War burial ground loomed on the hillside–into 4.5 million gross square feet of usable office space overlooking the confluence of the Anacostia and Potomac Rivers–was dizzying to me, especially the idea of a fortress-like structure for the secretary’s staff. When I asked my handlers about it, they shrugged.
As Rep. Ron Paul told me in an interview about the 10-year anniversary of DHS last month, bureaucracies don’t go away, they just “tend to get bigger and bigger.” DHS may be the greatest modern example.
On November 25, 2002, President George W. Bush signed the Homeland Security Act of 2002, which paved the way for the greatest reorganization of the federal government in 50 years, bringing together several law enforcement, transportation security, border patrol, immigration and disaster response agencies under the DHS umbrella. The consensus was that a serious lack of information sharing and cooperation among these departments had led to the government’s inability to prevent the attacks on 9/11.
“We had no choice,” outgoing Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-CT), who played a critical role in DHS’s creation in 2002, explained to an audience at George Washington University on Nov. 28. “The status quo enabled the attacks on 9/11. Our government simply needed to change quickly and dramatically and the Department of Homeland Security was one big and significant step in that direction.”
Whether or not this was a positive step is the subject of wide-ranging debate. First, neither the CIA nor the FBI were brought under the DHS rubric, ensuring new stove-piping and natural competition from the outset, despite all the talk about “cohesion” and “coordination.”
Second, the oversight situation is absurd. More than 100 congressional committees and subcommittees claim jurisdiction over DHS, which means the department has to report and respond to each of them, all the time, about whatever it is doing.
This has led to not only a drain on resources but competing messages, tasks, and believe it or not, less accountability. “The lack of congressional action” on this oversight issue “has become a joke,” the Heritage Foundation conceded in 2010.
The DHS also suffers from a pervasive lack of respect. “I don’t think people understand what (DHS) does and no part of it wins any respect from the public,” perhaps with the exception of the Coast Guard, Ben Friedman of the Cato Institute tells TAC. “It’s hard for me to know what the administration of DHS has accomplished other than making policy choices and steering the ship. It doesn’t seem to me that there’s been much improvement.”
Of course that assessment changes depending who you ask. On a panel discussion sponsored by the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy and the Open Society Foundations on Nov. 28, one DHS official claimed the department was doing just fine–for its age. When I talked to Jim Carafano of the Heritage Foundation, he acknowledged the oversight problems, but was pessimistic about a better solution for homeland security coordination. “The horse is already out of the barn,” he said.
As more critical voices have pointed out, the horse is not only out of the barn, but it’s wreaking havoc, and frankly, has proven to be a very costly animal. “Basically, before 9/11, all this stuff existed already and so we just used a fire hose to give more money to it,” said Friedman, who called the result, a “bureaucratic monstrosity.”
DHS’s brief history is littered with poor choices, persistently low employee morale, and a lot of waste. Just last week, Pro Publica reported that after years of promoting a mission to improve communication among federal agencies, most of its employees are still unable to use their $430 million interoperable radio system.
Those radios may end up joining the $184 million in unused airport scanners that are apparently gathering dust in a warehouse, right next to the abandoned $30 million “puffers,” part of a misbegotten scheme to elicit the presence of explosive material from passengers’ bodies as they pass through airport security checkpoints.
TSA has come under fire for more than just its flash-in-the-pan gizmos. Airport security has become a gauntlet which many Americans now dread. “What a choice we have,” noted outgoing Congressman Paul, who was one of the few Republicans who actually voted against the creation of DHS in 2002. “We can either not fly, or we have the choice of being groped or going through an x-ray machine” that renders near naked pictures of your body and blasts you with potentially harmful radiation, he lamented.
TSA says it is moving toward a more “risk based” approach, but so far, most people traveling this holiday season won’t notice. Viral videos of small children and grandmothers enduring pat-downs have done nothing to improve the agency’s image. Nor has the numerous reports that indicate that real contraband, including explosive material, continue to get through the security screening process.
Meanwhile, it turns out that DHS’s 77 fusion centers, which have swallowed upwards of $1.4 billion (no one quite knows how much they’ve cost, which is alarming in itself), are not only ineffective, but are engaging in unconstitutional surveillance of U.S citizens. They were supposed to integrate counter-terrorism efforts among local, state, and federal entities nationwide. Instead they’ve been a giant boondoggle, or as The Washington Postparaphrased a recent senate report: “pools of ineptitude, waste and civil liberties intrusions.”
This of course, may be the biggest and most egregious example, but it is not the first. Hundreds of millions were wasted in the Coast Guard’s failed “Deepwater” re-capitalization program. Thanks to poor oversight, mismanagement and shoddy, cheap contractor work, ships were designed that were so dangerously incapable in one case, that they had to be decommissioned before they were even deployed
The same problems were also blamed for the multi-billion dollar SBINet catastrophe. This effort was supposed to build a “virtual fence” along the country’s 6,000-mile border. Again, taxpayer dollars were wasted over many years on a project that was never fully implemented. “It was based on hopes, dreams and fantasy,” noted a scathing report by the Center for International Policy.
The biggest problem with DHS is it’s barreled forward with expensive projects that are never assessed for their effectiveness or even need. That means throwing a lot of money at greedy contractors who promised the world and in many cases, just couldn’t deliver. In 2008, a congressional report examined $15 billion worth of failed contracts under DHS auspices.
That’s not to say all of DHS’s endeavors have tanked (the Government Accountability Office offered this gracious assessment a year ago), but it does raise the question of whether the individual agencies — e.g., FEMA, TSA — could have pursued the same goals without the added personnel and red tape.
This swelling bureaucracy is no less manifested than in the massive headquarters construction taking place above the city today. But relative austerity is staying its hand, for now. The budget has slowed considerably, and timetables protracted since my visit in 2010.
But thousands of Coast Guard employees are expected to move into their brand new facility (pictures here) on the property this summer. It will be interesting to see if they will be joined by other DHS components, or left alone for now, with the deer and the ghosts of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital.

Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck
Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck (/ / YAHN PEE-tər-sohn SWAY-link; April or May, 1562 – 16 October 1621) was a Dutch composer, organist, and pedagogue whose work straddled the end of the Renaissance and beginning of the Baroque eras. He was among the first major keyboard composers of Europe, and his work as a teacher helped establish the north German organ tradition.
Sweelinck was born in Deventer, Netherlands, in April or May 1562. He was the eldest son of organist Peter (or Pieter) Swybbertszoon and Elske Jansdochter Sweeling, daughter of a surgeon. Soon after Sweelinck's birth, the family moved to Amsterdam, where from about 1564, Pieter Swybbertszoon served as organist of the Oude Kerk (Sweelinck's paternal grandfather and uncle also were organists). Jan Pieterszoon must have received first lessons in music from his father. Unfortunately, his father died in 1573. He subsequently received general education under Jacob Buyck, Catholic pastor of the Oude Kerk (these lessons stopped in 1578 after the Reformation of Amsterdam and the subsequent conversion to Calvinism; Buyck chose to leave the city). Little is known about his music education after the death of his father; his music teachers may have included Jan Willemszoon Lossy, a little-known countertenor and shawm player at Haarlem, and/or Cornelis Boskoop, Sweelinck's father's successor at the Oude Kerk. If Sweelinck indeed studied in Haarlem, he was probably influenced to some degree by the organists of St.-Bavokerk, Claas Albrechtszoon van Wieringen and Floris van Adrichem, both of whom improvised daily in the Bavokerk.
According to Cornelis Plemp, a pupil and friend of Sweelinck's, he started his 44-year career as organist of the Oude Kerk in 1577, when he was 15. This date, however, is uncertain, because the church records from 1577 to 1580 are missing and Sweelinck can only be traced in Oude Kerk from 1580 onwards; he occupied the post for the rest of his life. Sweelinck's widowed mother died in 1585, and Jan Pieterszoon took responsibility for his younger brother and sister. His salary of 100 florins was doubled the next year, presumably to help matters. In addition, he was offered an additional 100 guilders in the event that he married, which happened in 1590 when he married Claesgen Dircxdochter Puyner from Medemblik. He was also offered the choice between a further 100 guilders and free accommodations in a house belonging to the town, the latter of which he chose. Sweelinck's first published works date from around 1592–94: three volumes of chansons, the last of which is the only remaining volume published in 1594 (for reasons that are not certain, the composer adopted his mother's last name; "Sweelinck" first appears on the title-page of the 1594 publication). Sweelinck then set to publishing psalm settings, aiming to set the entire Psalter. These works appeared in four large volumes published in 1604, 1613, 1614 and 1621. The last volume was published posthumously and, presumably, in unfinished form. Sweelinck died of unknown causes on 16 October 1621 and was buried in the Oude Kerk. He was survived by his wife and five of their six children; the eldest of them, Dirck Janszoon, succeeded his father as organist of the Oude Kerk.
The composer most probably spent his entire life in Amsterdam, only occasionally visiting other cities in connection with his professional activities: he was asked to inspect organs, give opinions and advice on organ building and restoration, etc. These duties resulted in short visits to Delft, Dordrecht (1614), Enkhuizen, Haarlem (1594), Harderwijk (1608), Middelburg (1603), Nijmegen (1605), Rotterdam (1610), Rhenen (1616), as well as Deventer, his birthplace (1595, 1616). Sweelinck's longest voyage was to Antwerpen in 1604, when he was commissioned by the Amsterdam authorities to buy a harpsichord for the city. No documentary evidence has turned up to support the tradition, going back to Mattheson, that Sweelinck visited Venice – perhaps a confusion with his brother, the painter Gerrit Pietersz Sweelink, who did – and similarly there is no evidence that he ever crossed the English Channel, although copies of his music did such as the pieces included in the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book. His popularity as a composer, performer and teacher increased steadily during his lifetime. Contemporaries nicknamed him Orpheus of Amsterdam and even the city authorities frequently brought important visitors to hear Sweelinck's improvisations.
Sweelinck's only duties in Amsterdam were those of an organist. Contrary to custom, he did not play the carillon or the harpsichord on formal occasions; nor was he regularly required to produce compositions. Calvinist services did not typically include organ playing due to the belief in what is now called the Regulative Principle. The Regulative Principle restricted the elements of worship to only that which was commanded in the New Testament. However, the Consistory of Dordrecht of 1598 instructed organists to play variations on the new Genevan psalm tunes before and after the service so that the people would become familiar with them. Sweelinck was employed instead by the city itself. As he worked for Protestant magistrates the remainder of his life, it is likely that he was an adherent of Calvinism. In the 1590s three of his children were baptized in the Oude Kerk. His employment allowed him time for teaching, for which he was to become as famous as for his compositions. Sweelinck's pupils included the core of what was to become the north German organ school: Jacob Praetorius II, Heinrich Scheidemann, Paul Siefert, Melchior Schildt and Samuel and Gottfried Scheidt. Students of Sweelinck were seen as musicians against whom other organists were measured. Sweelinck was known in Germany as the "maker of organists". Sociable and respected, he was in great demand as a teacher. His Dutch pupils were undoubtedly many, but none of them became composers of note. Sweelinck, however, influenced the development of the Dutch organ school, as is shown in the work of later composers such as Anthoni van Noordt. Sweelinck, in the course of his career, had set music to Catholic, Calvinist and Lutheran liturgies. He was the most important composer of the musically rich "golden era" of the Netherlands.
Sweelinck's influence spread as far as Sweden and England, carried to the former by Andreas Düben and to the latter by English composers such as Peter Philips, who probably met Sweelinck in 1593. Sweelinck, and Dutch composers in general, had evident links to the English school of composition. Sweelinck's music appears in the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, which otherwise only contains the work of English composers. He wrote variations on John Dowland's famous Lachrimae Pavane. John Bull, who was probably a personal friend, wrote a set of variations on a theme by Sweelinck after the death of the Dutch composer.
Sweelinck represents the highest development of the Dutch keyboard school, and indeed represented a pinnacle in keyboard contrapuntal complexity and refinement before J.S. Bach. However, he was a skilled composer for voices as well, and composed more than 250 vocal works (chansons, madrigals, motets and Psalms).
Some of Sweelinck's innovations were of profound musical importance, including the fugue—he was the first to write an organ fugue which began simply, with one subject, successively adding texture and complexity until a final climax and resolution, an idea which was perfected at the end of the Baroque era by Bach. It is also generally thought that many of Sweelinck's keyboard works were intended as studies for his pupils. He was also the first to use the pedal as a real fugal part. Stylistically Sweelinck's music also brings together the richness, complexity and spatial sense of Andrea and Giovanni Gabrieli, and the ornamentation and intimate forms of the English keyboard composers. In some of his works Sweelinck appears as a composer of the baroque style, with the exception of his chansons which mostly resemble the French Renaissance tradition. In formal development, especially in the use of countersubject, stretto, and organ point (pedal point), his music looks ahead to Bach (who was quite possibly familiar with Sweelinck’s music).
Sweelinck was a master improviser, and acquired the informal title of the "Orpheus of Amsterdam". More than 70 of his keyboard works have survived, and many of them may be similar to the improvisations that residents of Amsterdam around 1600 were likely to have heard. In the course of his life, Sweelinck was involved with the musical liturgies of three distinctly different traditions: Catholic, the Calvinist, and Lutheran—all of which are reflected in his work. Even his vocal music, which is more conservative than his keyboard writing, shows a striking rhythmic complexity and an unusual richness of contrapuntal devices.

Communication in the Dental Office: Part 2 - Effective Telecommunications (AGD 550)
Presenter: Betty Ladley Finkbeiner
In the past decade much has changed in the use of telephones. The telephone in its many forms still remains the most important instrument in the dental practice. It is important that the dental staff makes a positive lasting impression when a call is made or received in the dental office.
The dental staff receives and places a myriad of telephone calls each day. The dental professional speaks with a variety of people both inside and outside the dental practice to transmit information, place orders, schedule and confirm appointments, manage travel, or perform one of many other tasks common to the dental practice. The dental professional must use proper techniques when answering or placing calls either by land line or by cellular phone. In addition, the dental professional must be aware of the constantly changing forms of telecommunications and be able to apply their use for the dental practice.
This course is designed so the reader will review basic telephone techniques, conduct an inventory of personal skills to determine if one’s technique needs modification, offer suggestions for resolving conflicts on the telephone, and aid new staff in improving telephone techniques and integrate new forms of telecommunication into the practice.
Telecommunications refers to the process of transmitting information, over significant distances, to communicate. Modern dentistry utilizes a variety of telecommunication systems, including but not limited to various types of telephone systems, such as key systems, cellular phones, hands-free telephones, answering machines, pagers, and facsimile machines (FAX). Such systems have provided endless communication capabilities to enhance patient care. With such systems, however, patient confidentiality must always remain constant.
In a realistic sense, telecommunications in the dental office refers to the different types of telephone systems and communication tools that are commonly used. These may include standard line systems, cellular phones, hands-free phones, conference calls, answering machines, and pagers.
The most used form of telecommunications in the dental office is the telephone. A countless number of telephone calls are received each day. The manner in which these calls are received can impact the success of the practice. A telephone call that leaves a patient dissatisfied can result in the loss of patient rapport. The opposite occurs when the patient feels he or she has received professional courtesy. This patient will look forward to future contact with the office.
Betty Ladley Finkbeiner, is a Faculty Emeritus of Washtenaw Community College in Ann Arbor, MI where she served as Chairperson of the Dental Assisting Program for over three decades. She began her career as an on-the-job trained dental assistant for the late Joseph S. Ellis, DDS in Grand Rapids, MI and later became a CDA and an RDA in the state of Michigan. She received Bachelors and Masters Degrees from the School of Education at the University of Michigan. She has served as a consultant and staff representative for the American Dental Association's (ADA) Commission on Dental Accreditation and as a consultant to the Dental Assisting National Board. She was an appointee to the Michigan Board of Dentistry from 1999 - 2004.
Ms. Finkbeiner has authored articles in professional journals and several continuing education classes, and co-authored several textbooks including: Practice Management for the Dental Team, Comprehensive Dental Assisting: A Clinical Approach, Review of Comprehensive Dental Assisting, and a handbook entitled, Four-handed Dentistry: A Handbook of Clinical Application and Ergonomic Concepts. She has co-authored videotape productions including Medical Emergencies for the Dental Team, Four-handed Dentistry, An Ergonomic Concept, and Infection Control for the Dental Team and lectured to dental school classes and at many dental meetings. She received the ADAA Journal Award for the September/October 2009 article on Managing Cultural Differences in the Dental Office. Currently retired, she continues to write, lecture and provide consultant services in ergonomic concepts to practicing dentists throughout the country.
Upon completion of this course, the dental professional should be able to:
• Define telecommunications.
• Explain the application of telecommunications in a dental practice.
• Describe various types of telecommunication systems available for use in the dental practice.
• List tips for efficient telephone management.

2008 Jeep compass North Edition
HI, I just bought my first jeep, totally stoked about it, but it has what to me sounds like a weird Gurgling sound coming from down around my muffler, it starts once the car is coming up to temperature,
The sound comes from right behind the tire, right around were the pipe comes in from the front, sounds like a gurgling or almost boiling water..
I just got the car on Monday, At first salesman said it's normal.... (quite quickly i would have to say....) then they had a look and claims that it's likely just water from when they washed the car prior to delivering it to me... but that should have dissipated No? When i picked it up i also noticed that water was been kicked out my tail pipe... not just dripping.
I am just worried it's something inside the engine, has anyone else experienced anything like this... I am taking it to a friend of mine this weekend to see if there is anything he can see before we start tearing apart the motor.... | <urn:uuid:c665af54-3ce3-4f33-aa9c-c89dff7e9be3> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.myjeepcompass.com/forums/powertrain-discussions/3830-2008-jeep-compass-north-edition.html | 2019-11-18T17:33:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496669809.82/warc/CC-MAIN-20191118154801-20191118182801-00197.warc.gz | en | 0.980526 | 217 | [

As I was puttering around Facebook this morning avoiding Thoughts of Snow & Ice (not to be confused with the Songs of Fire & Ice), I came across this post by Facebook friend Michael Wirth:
Now, I’m a lover of the Shamrock Shake, it is pretty much the reason for McDonald’s to exist, but Michael’s Facebook post (and subsequent blog) about the Shamrock Shake being back got me thinking about the rest of the year when the Shamrock Shake isn’t around, and the sadness the falls upon my mint loving soul. But as luck would have it, the digital love of life came once again to the rescue (I’m talking about Evernote, you can read all the gushy goodness here), low and behold in my Recipes notebook was this article: DIY: McDonald’s Shamrock Shake… which can be completed in 3 easy steps:
DIY: McDonald’s Shamrock Shake
Fortunately, it’s not hard to make your own Shamrock Shake at home. If you have the supplies for a vanilla milkshake, plus extra essentials for baking, you have basically all you need to make the shake yourself. However, there are lots of ways to update the Shamrock Shake — including a little boozy treat for the adults. (Because why drink green beer when you can drink an alcoholic, and green, milkshake?) Click ahead for tips and recipes on how to make the Shamrock Shake at home.
Step 1: Perfect the Vanilla Milkshake
If you can make a vanilla milkshake, you’re more than prepared to make a Shamrock Shake at home. All you need is vanilla ice cream and milk to make the base.
Step 2: Add Peppermint Extract
Peppermint extract goes a long way, remember, so don’t overdo it in your vanilla milkshake. When adding the ingredients to a blender, add the peppermint extract for a creamy mint treat. Our best proportions for a shamrock shake:
2 cups vanilla ice cream
¾ cup of milk
¾ teaspoon peppermint extract
Step 3: Add Food Coloring
As the final touch to your Shamrock Shake, add up to eight drops of green food coloring. (Remember, like peppermint extract, it’s a potent ingredient — so don’t overdo it.) Blend all ingredients on high speed until smooth, and you’re good to go. (Whipped cream and a maraschino cherry not included.)
And there you have it the DIY Shamrock Shake, once March has come and gone you and say goodbye to the Post-Shamrock Shake blues, you can make your own and stay cool all year long. Enjoy! | <urn:uuid:449d8215-d24a-417a-9ee6-99e2f46287ff> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | http://goinggeeknews.com/2014/03/03/diy-shamrock-shake/ | 2019-11-20T04:48:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670448.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20191120033221-20191120061221-00357.warc.gz | en | 0.88706 | 574 | [

Baby steps for working mums
It’s healthy to be comfortable as either ‘worker’ or ‘mother’ or as both, but it’s not good to want one arrangement while living another,
writes OLIVER JAMES
WHEN THEIR children are small, most mothers employ mental acrobatics to reconcile their “mother” and “worker” identities, and justify decisions about working or not working. If only their partners felt a similar pressure.Four main tactics have been identified, none of them terribly effective. They are used in differing degrees and ways, depending on whether the mother works full or part-time, or is at home full-time.“Blanking” entails a total denial of the existence of an alternative. Hence, three-quarters of at-homers say that work is completely out of the question because of their child’s wellbeing.
More conflict filled are the quarter of mothers who say that their child is “the whole of my life”, yet who work 20-30 hours a week. Hardly any mothers blank out their nurturing identity in favour of the worker.“Separate lives” entail a complete denial of the mother identity when at work, and of worker when at home. Unfortunately, mobile phones and e-mails tend to lead the two to bleed into each other.
“Blending” entails seeing oneself as both worker and mother when in either social context, sometimes combined with working from home or, occasionally, taking the child to work (such as a creche or if working in a shop, for example).This runs a high risk of perpetual disequilibrium, ricocheting between identities. Half of full-timers have reported feeling constantly torn.
“Reframing” is the least worst mental gymnastic manoeuvre. You may couch your worker identity in terms of it benefiting the child, and your mother identity as increasing appreciation of work: win-win. This is the commonest tactic of the part-timer; three-quarters of whom maintain that they have successfully integrated worker with mother.Where reframing can go wrong is if it entails misrepresenting the needs of babies or toddlers. The commonest example is to convince yourself that they need stimulation, education and friends, whereas the evidence is overwhelming that until they are three, all children need nurture rather than pedagogy, and constant supervision from a responsive adult who knows them well.Regarding toddlers’ supposed need for friends, it is only during the third year that much more than parallel play alongside peers becomes possible. Even then, other kids are often seen as a menace or ignored.
Four out of five 18 month olds will grab at others’ toys, doing so an average of four times in a 45-minute period. Although the amount of such grabbing decreases as the child grows, a year later, the average number of grabs per 45 minutes is still two and a half. As such grabbing is still so common then, there needs to be close adult supervision of under-threes in the company of peers. The recommended ratio of one adult for every three under-twos in nursery settings does not seem sufficient for this.Reframing toddlers as needing other children’s company may be comforting to the parent, but it does not help the child.
Abundant evidence shows that what is most harmful to a mother’s mental health is when she is wanting one arrangement and living another. A life of quiet desperation soon develops, as she constantly has to hide behind a patina of rationalisations when talking to friends and colleagues.The real solution is going to be men starting to feel – every bit as much as women – that it is up to them how the baby is cared for. – Guardian Service | <urn:uuid:45b22baf-0515-4005-b140-b3f1beda48eb> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://headline.ie/baby-steps-for-working-mums/ | 2019-11-12T00:28:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496664469.42/warc/CC-MAIN-20191112001515-20191112025515-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.960355 | 786 | [

EL PASO, Texas- Rewrite the history books! Round Rock Express (69-45) 2B Alex De Goti hit for the cycle to fuel a lopsided 20-12 victory over the El Paso Chihuahuas (66-49) on Wednesday night at Southwest University Park. De Goti went 5-6 with two home runs and six RBI in a dazzling night at the plate.
Round Rock RHP Brendan McCurry (3-1, 2.98) earned the win after tossing 1.1 hitless innings of relief. On the losing side, LHP Robbie Erlin surrendered four runs on five hits in a 1.0-inning appearance out of El Paso's bullpen.
The Express struck first in what would prove to a thrilling series opener. SS Myles Straw worked an eight-pitch walk to leadoff the game. Two batters later, DH Kyle Tucker smoked a home run to put the E-Train ahead by a pair of runs.
However, the lead was short-lived thanks to a three-run homer off the bat of of Chihuahuas C Austin Allen's . The next batter, 1B Aderlin Rodriguez, mimicked the shot to put El Paso on top 4-2.
In the second, De Goti helped Round Rock inch back with a solo bomb. The next frame, CF Drew Ferguson crushed a leadoff triple and Tucker sealed the deal with a game-tying sacrifice fly.
With the score level at four, El Paso 2B Ty France doubled prior to a single off the bat of Allen. Rodriguez put the home team ahead 7-4 with a three-run home run. CF Travis Jankowski then singled in 3B Seth Mejias-Brean for the Chihuahuas eighth run of the evening.
Round Rock pushed back in the fourth as RF Chas McCormick jumped aboard via a walk before advancing to second on a single off the bat of C Lorenzo Qunitana and eventually scoring on De Goti's single. However, El Paso answered back as DH Esteban Quiroz doubled in France and Rodriguez, who had previously hit a single and double respectively.
An explosive fifth inning pulled Round Rock from behind to tie the game. To begin the frame, Ferguson singled prior to a Tucker walk. A wild pitch then advanced the duo to second and third. LF Taylor Jones later drew a walk to load the bases for a Nick Tanielu double that would score Ferguson and Tucker. Two outs later, De Goti stepped up to the plate and ripped his second longball of the night to level the score at 10. In the home half, France used an RBI single to give El Paso a brief one-run lead.
The first five E-Train batters recorded hits in the sixth inning. Ferguson singled before Tucker's second two-run blast of the night, a shot that gave Round Rock the lead yet again. Jones then singled and advanced to third on a double by Tanielu. McCormick followed the pair with a single to drive in another run. Before the Chihuahuas could retire the inning, Quintana hit a sacrifice fly to left field allowing Tanielu to score and widen the gap to 14-11.
The E-Train kept the ball rolling in the late innings. 3B Abraham Toro hit a seventh-inning double before hustling home on a Jones single. In the eighth, De Goti continued to dazzle at the plate with a triple that Straw polished off with a base hit.
Ferguson led off the final frame with a walk and Tucker followed shortly thereafter with a single. After the pair advanced on a Jones groundout, Tanielu singled in the speedy duo. Quintana kept the hitting party alive with another knock that plated Tanielu moments before De Goti completed the cycle with an RBI double.
In the bottom of the ninth, Mejias-Brean went yard, but a 20-12 deficit was far too much for the Chihuahuas to overcome.

03 Jun G is for… gable
Can you believe that we’re already up to the letter ‘g’ on our A to Z guide to loft conversions? For those of you who don’t know, each week, we bring you a guide to all things technical relating to lofts but in an easy to understand explanation. Today, we’re focusing on gable roofs. We’ll be taking a look at what a gable roof is and the different variations in gable roofing.
What is a gable roof?
A gable roof is the triangular shaped section of wall between the two sloping sides of a roof. However, the shape of the gable depends on how the roof has been structured. The great thing about gable roofs is that they encourage rainwater and snow to drip off the roof, rather than gathering and forming large puddles. What’s more, they generate maximum space in the loft, which is fantastic news if you’re looking to convert your loft into a further room.
Variations in gable roof designs
– Crow-stepped gable
A stair-step design helps to accommodate the sloping part of the roof and makes it more aesthetically pleasing. The design dates back to the seventeenth century and can be seen on Muchalls Castle and Monboddo House, both are located in Scotland.
– Dutch gable roof
A hip roof, complete with four sloping sides and topped with a gable roof. Although hip roofs do not give the same amount of space in the loft as a traditional gable roof, it removes the difficulty of attaching gutters that is associated with gable roofs.
– Clipped gable roof
In contrast to a traditional gable roof, a clipped gable roof is flatter at the top instead of culminating in a point. In addition to adding visual appeal, this style also helps to reduce wind force.
Now you know more about it, you should be able to determine whether or not your house has a gable roof. If you’re planning to convert your loft, you’ll be pleased to know that this style of roof will ensure you have the maximum floor space.

The magic moments keep on coming for Blue Jays rookie catcher Danny Jansen, who seems to make special memories with every game he plays.
On Monday, he kept his unblemished big-league hitting streak alive with a fourth-inning double giving him a knock in all six games he’s played as the Jays cruised to a 5-3 win over the AL East weakling Baltimore Orioles.
Kendrys Morales led the way for the Jays with a pair of home runs against the Orioles, his 15th and 16th of the season.
But it was another wide-eyed night for Jansen and yet another unforgettable moment for the young catcher when Orioles veteran Adam Jones came to the plate for the first time.
Put it this way, if Jansen had something annoying to say to Jones, it wouldn’t have been the first time.
At 33, Jones may be 10 years Jansen’s senior but the two got to know each other way back in 2004 when the veteran was with the single A Wisconsin Timber Rattlers.
Jansen’s parents were a host family for Rattlers players and a very young Danny apparently couldn’t get enough of the future five-time all star.
“It was so cool,” Jansen said of seeing Jones for the first time since the two shared a bathroom and kitchen table. “We got to share a moment and he hit me on the chest and said “I’m proud of you, man. You made it. I always loved watching him and telling people the story that I had Adam Jones in my house when I was a kid.”
Jones remembers it well himself and yes, he does remember the annoying side of being 18 and having a nine-year-old tagging along whenever he could. All in good fun, of course.
“Reunited with my old host family @D_Jansen31,” Jones tweeted to his 541,000 Twitter followers. “So proud of you pimp. From making me up at 7 a.m. before you had to school and me getting in at 4 a.m. from a looong bus trip to playing against each other in the show!!!! This is a Movie.”
When we spoke with Jansen in Washington at the MLB all star Futures Game, he fondly recalled those times with his family back in Appleton, Wisc. and how being around pro players fostered his love for the game.
Jansen is certainly loving it now, including his first home game as a Jay. The two-out double he belted extended his perfect hitting streak. Four of his eight hits have gone for extra bases and Jesse Barfield and Ryan Goins with eight apiece are the only Jays in club history to start their big-league careers with a longer streak.
MORALES’ STANDING O
No Jays fans, your team can’t face the Orioles every night. But what a lark it would be.
On Monday, they rode the big bat of designated hitter Kendrys Morales — who banged out a pair including one that came off a bat he broke on contact and another he rocked 437 feet out of the park.
“It’s the same swing except that he’s hitting it now,” Jays manager John Gibbons said of Morales, who is definitely heating up at the plate. “He had a slow start and now he has regrouped.”
Morales was particularly pumped at the second one, a no doubter that rattled around the second deck in right field for the 22nd multi-homer game in the big Cuban’s career.
“The second one he threw me a meatball pretty much and I hit it better than the first one,” Morales said.
ON THE MARCO
There was just enough offence on Monday to make up for a middling effort from Jays starter Marco Estrada who lasted 5.1 innings but scattered seven hits and walked three more in the three runs he allowed.
Estrada, of course, is potential trade bait as the Aug. 31 deadline for adding playoff eligible players to rosters nears and management is hoping he will attract some lukewarm interest from teams who remember his playoff success in the past.
It’s expected that the veteran, who is due to be a free agent this summer, will get one more start/audition prior to the deadline.
Estrada seemed a little frustrated after the game most notably that the velocity in his fastball that was lacking. “It’s hard to get away with 86 at times but that’s what I’ve got right now and I’m trying to get through it,” Estrada said. “I’m fine. The (velocity) is down a little bit but I’m working on it.”
As for the possibility of being dealt, Estrada is trying not to ponder it too much.
“Right now I’m a Blue Jay, this is my main concern,” Estrada said. “If that happens, I’ll focus on that.”
The Jays may finally have the return of starter Aaron Sanchez to the rotation this Saturday. The young righty, who has been out since bruising his finger on June 22, threw 86 pitches in a rehab game for double A New Hampshire on Monday. Sanchez allowed six hits, but two of them were rollers by the mound that he wisely opted not to try to snare given his injury … How completely inept are the Orioles, who fell to 37-88, an odiferous 51 games below .500? The Jays have now won eight in a row against the Orioles and are a ridiculous 9-1 against manager Buck Showalter’s team this season … Against the rest of the AL East? The Jays are a miserable 10-31 and the first of three between these two is certainly illustrative of the wide gap between the beasts and the leasts of the division … The first six Jays hits on Monday were for extra bases including a pair of doubles from centre fielder Kevin Pillar … A fourth-inning walk by Jays third baseman Russell Martin extended his on-base streak to 16, the second longest in his career … Yes Jays attendance is down significantly this season but explain this one — a strong Monday night crowd of 25,031 was on hand to see the Jays face a team that opened the night 50 games below .500. | <urn:uuid:fe013118-47b3-43bc-9d95-5d0482165f63> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://torontosun.com/sports/baseball/toronto-blue-jays/kendrys-morales-goes-deep-and-deeper-as-blue-jays-dump-lowly-os | 2019-11-17T07:00:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496668896.47/warc/CC-MAIN-20191117064703-20191117092703-00477.warc.gz | en | 0.975832 | 1,359 | [

Allergy & Intolerance Test
Is what you eat making you ill?
Are you affected by “something” and can’t get to the bottom of what is causing your discomfort, agony or recurring symptoms?
May be it ti an Allergy
Allergies are increasing progressively. Allergy is the description commonly used to describe adverse reactions and abnormal responses to a food, drug or something in our environment, which usually does not cause symptoms in most people. A sensitive person may react to even minor quantities.
The word “Allergy” has become interchangeable with intolerance, sensitivity, hypersensitivity, substance sensitivity, energy toxins and allergy like reaction, essentially representing anything that weakens our body’s immune or energy system.
Besides the known traditional allergic problems, any undiagnosed, vague or untreatable symptom can be from an immune system reaction. Allergies are often found to be an underlying cause or contributing part of the problem.
Any symptom can be caused by a substance reaction-and in turn-any substance can become an “allergen” and trigger or cause reactions. Foods and environmental substances are also known to worsen symptoms or conditions.
The body’s ability to cope with everything we eat or are exposed to is dependent on many individual many individual factors. Often it is the accumulation or “rain barrel” effect that reactions all of a sudden develop or break out. One of the main contributing causes in the rise of allergic reactions is “stress”and “over exposure”, also to too many artificial, synthetic or “hazardous” substances and the increase of electromagnetic radiation.
There are many reasons for the increase in food and environmental sensitivities. The most obvious reason is that we are being exposed daily to more and more chemicals and substances that our bodies were never exposed to during our evolution.
Today we are inhaling and ingesting chemicals on a daily basis, whose names we can??t even pronounce, yet assume our bodies will be able to determine if they are healthy for us.
Allergy or Intolerance?
There is much misunderstanding about these two terms and they are frequently confused. Many people speak of Food Allergy when What they describe is likely to be Food Intolerance. Food Allergies are an autoimmune response caused by the body “misreading” a food protein as an enemy or toxic substance. An Allergy is a rather fast response by the body’s immune system to a perceived invader.
Signs or symptoms are typically immediate, dramatic and visible: coughing, sneezing, vomiting, migraines, watering eyes, rashes, swelling tissue, hives-or in severe cases an anaphylactic shock which requires emergency intervention.
However other symptoms like the gastro-intestinal responses nausea, vomiting and diarrhea can be delayed for hours or even days.
Food intolerance on the other hand is an inability to process a particular food. It is also thought to be an immune system response. The gastro-intestinal tract in some people is simply unable to produce appropriate enzymes for normal chemical breakdown. The food passes through unprocessed, or lingers in the gut fermenting producing excess gas.
Allergy -like reactions take the form of both physical and emotional symptoms. These reactions can be responsible for a myriad of symptoms including A.D.D., anxiety, depression, arthritis, respiratory problems, digestive problems, chronic fatigue, brain fog and panic attacks.
Anaphylactic shock In severe cases there is an anaphylactic response where tissues swell up to two or three times their normal size, swelling up so rapidly that they obstruct breathing. These allergy sufferers gasp for air and can suffocate and die if not given emergency treatment (e.g. By the administration of adrenalin by paramedics, teachers, carers or medical staff).
Allergies are often associated with many common diseases
Reactions are experienced differently by every person; ranging from temporary sensitivities, intolerances, to severe allergic reactions, or life threatening anaphylactic shock??anaphylaxis).
Very often there are more than one allergen involved in causing reactions such as-itching, swelling, sneezing, wheezing, and various other symptoms, It is primarily the immune system, that is affected or weakened, and may react or give rise to a vast number of complaints.
Tell tale signs of an allergy especially in children are:
Dark circles under eyes, swollen or red around eyes, red ears and cheeks, itchy nose/ears/eyes, behavioural or mood changes like “sudden” irritability, hyperactivity or withdrawal symptoms, changes in handwriting/drawing.
Common Symptoms include:
Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)
Blocked or running nose
General breathing difficulty
Headaches & Migraine
Fatigue & chronic Fatigue (ME)
Weight gain or loss
Weight gain or loss
Water retention/ oedema
General ill-health/not feeling well

– Genitourinary symptoms: bedwetting, chronic bladder infection
– Mental/emotional disturbances” anxiety”depression, hyperactivity, inability to concentrate, insomnia, irritability and mental confusion.
– Musculoskeletal symptoms: bursitis, joint and muscle pain, arthritis

Acupuncture is one of the best available treatment for allergies, intolerance and associated symptoms. Acupuncture works with the human bodies energy system- also known as meridians-to balance and regulate the associated organs and systems. Acupuncture is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which also includes Chinese Herbal Medicine, movement and meditation practice such as Tai Chi and Qi Gong, Acupressure, foods for healing and Chinese psychology. TCM has been used to effectively treat allergies for hundreds of years. Both acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine have been shown to help people with asthma, seasonal allergies, allergic rhinitis, eczema, food allergies and various other allergies and associated symptoms. The results of several studies suggest that TCM therapies like acupuncture can be very helpful for any allergic condition. | <urn:uuid:c949f1a2-cdf0-45c6-a32d-b4cdd6fc510b> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | http://natureharmony.ie/allergy-test/ | 2019-11-20T10:15:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670535.9/warc/CC-MAIN-20191120083921-20191120111921-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.923971 | 1,317 | [

The NFL is indisputably in a period of tumult, besieged both by controversy around how the game should be played and divisive political issues that frequently have attracted the attention of President Donald Trump.
But New Yorkers who love the sport say they’ll be tuning in when the new season kicks off Thursday, as the Philadelphia Eagles face off against the Atlanta Falcons. Whatever fans’ personal political views or opinions on the game’s violence, their loyalty to the players and love for the game keeps them coming back.
“I love the game,” said Omar Crump, 28, of the Bronx, who said he doesn’t root for any particular team but has favored players, including New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. “I know the politics and stuff is going on, and that’s part of it.
“I’m not mad at the NFL, [and I don’t] want to boycott them,” he added, noting the league didn’t create any controversies but is simply trying to respond to them.
Crump said he’s personally pleased to see Colin Kaepernick’s star rise after being shunned by the league for taking a knee during the national anthem to protest police brutality. The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback has been featured in a contentious Nike ad, which reportedly will air during the NFL’s opening game Thursday.
He also noted he’s not a big fan of the new “helmet rule,” a safety-minded change that prohibits players from lowing their heads to make contact with opponents, though he is sympathetic to the need to protect players.
“It is hurting the game,” he conceded. “We want to see hard-hitting. … But, I don’t want the players to get hurt.”
Penelope Burns, a passionate Jets fan hailing from the Bronx had the opposite reaction to the helmet rule. Although she plans to keep watching the games, she finds herself conflicted over the violence of the sport and the prevalence of head injuries among players.
“I feel like I can’t celebrate a big hit anymore because I think, ‘How many years did he just take off his life?’ ” mused Burns, 28. “It’s harder for me to reconcile how I can support a sport that’s so violent.”
Burns also said she believes players should be free to kneel during the anthem and finds the conversation around the issue “maddening.”
Still, she will absolutely tune in for the season kickoff, she said, and will likely travel to her parents’ house to enjoy the game with her dad. A self-described passionate person, she loves the feeling of watching her team triumph. Plus, she wants to support the players.
“I support the players, not the corporation,” she said.
Some fans were completely unmoved by the contention either way. One lifelong fan, sporting a Giants tattoo on his forearm, shrugged when asked if the controversies impacted his experience of the game.
“No, not at all,” said Rene Burgos, 58, of Brooklyn, showing off the ‘XLVI’ inscribed above the tattooed Giants helmet, honoring his favorite team’s 2012 Super Bowl victory. His loyalty also belongs to another New York team, he said.
“I’m rooting for the Jets,” he added. “I feel sorry for them.” | <urn:uuid:fa49126b-e2f6-43c3-a999-ed84a4da3565> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.amny.com/news/nyc-football-fans-1.20853519/ | 2019-11-21T22:11:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670987.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20191121204227-20191121232227-00397.warc.gz | en | 0.969092 | 743 | [

Possible intel failures to be examined in Sri Lanka blasts
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — Police in Sri Lanka said Monday the investigation into the Easter Sunday bombings will examine reports that the intelligence community failed to detect or warn of possible suicide attacks before the violence.
The nine bombings of churches, luxury hotels and other sites was Sri Lanka’s deadliest violence since a devastating civil war in the South Asian island nation ended a decade ago. Police spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara said Monday the death toll had risen overnight to 290 dead with more than 500 wounded.
Two government ministers have alluded to intelligence failures. Telecommunications Minister Harin Fernando tweeted, “Some intelligence officers were aware of this incidence. Therefore there was a delay in action. Serious action needs to be taken as to why this warning was ignored.” He said his father had heard of the possibility of an attack as well and had warned him not to enter popular churches.
And Mano Ganeshan, the minister for national integration, said the security officers within his ministry had been warned by their division about the possibility two suicide bombers would target politicians.
Gunasekara said the Criminal Investigation Department investigating the blasts will look into the reports.
Defense Minister Ruwan Wijewardena previously described the blasts as a terrorist attack by religious extremists, and police said 13 suspects were arrested, though there was no immediate claim of responsibility. Wijewardena said most of the bombings were believed to have been suicide attacks.
The explosions — mostly in or around Colombo, the capital — collapsed ceilings and blew out windows, killing worshippers and hotel guests in one scene after another of smoke, soot, blood, broken glass, screams and wailing alarms. Victims were carried out of blood-spattered pews.
“People were being dragged out,” said Bhanuka Harischandra, of Colombo, a 24-year-old founder of a tech marketing company who was going to the Shangri-La Hotel for a meeting when it was bombed. “People didn’t know what was going on. It was panic mode.”
He added: “There was blood everywhere.”
Most of those killed were Sri Lankans. But the three bombed hotels and one of the churches, St. Anthony’s Shrine, are frequented by foreign tourists, and Sri Lanka’s Foreign Ministry said the bodies of at least 27 foreigners from a variety of countries were recovered.
The U.S. said “several” Americans were among the dead, while Britain, India, China, Japan and Portugal said they, too, lost citizens.
The streets were largely deserted Monday morning, with most shops closed and a heavy deployment of soldiers and police. Stunned clergy and onlookers gathered at St. Anthony’s Shrine, looking past the soldiers to the stricken church.
The Sri Lankan government lifted a curfew that had been imposed during the night. But most social media remained blocked Monday after officials said they needed to curtail the spread of false information and ease tension in the country of about 21 million people.
Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe said he feared the massacre could trigger instability in Sri Lanka, and he vowed to “vest all necessary powers with the defense forces” to take action against those responsible.
The Archbishop of Colombo, Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith, called on Sri Lanka’s government to “mercilessly” punish those responsible “because only animals can behave like that.”
The scale of the bloodshed recalled the worst days of Sri Lanka’s 26-year civil war, in which the Tamil Tigers, a rebel group from the ethnic Tamil minority, sought independence from the Buddhist-majority country. The Tamils are Hindu, Muslim and Christian.
Sri Lanka, off the southern tip of India, is about 70 percent Buddhist. Scattered incidents of anti-Christian harassment have occurred in recent years, but nothing on the scale of what happened Sunday.
There is also no history of violent Muslim militants in Sri Lanka. However, tensions have been running high more recently between hard-line Buddhist monks and Muslims.
Two Muslim groups in Sri Lanka condemned the church attacks, as did countries around the world, and Pope Francis expressed condolences at the end of his traditional Easter Sunday blessing in Rome.
“I want to express my loving closeness to the Christian community, targeted while they were gathered in prayer, and all the victims of such cruel violence,” Francis said.
Six nearly simultaneous blasts took place in the morning at the shrine and the Cinnamon Grand, Shangri-La and Kingsbury hotels in Colombo, as well as at two churches outside Colombo, according to a Sri Lankan military spokesman, Brig. Sumith Atapattu.
A few hours later, two more blasts occurred just outside Colombo, one of them at a guesthouse, where two people were killed, the other near an overpass, Atapattu said.
Also, three police officers were killed during a search at a suspected safe house on the outskirts of Colombo when its occupants apparently detonated explosives to prevent arrest, authorities said.
The Shangri-La’s second-floor restaurant was gutted, with the ceiling and windows blown out. Loose wires hung down and tables were overturned in the blackened space. From outside the police cordon, three bodies could be seen covered in white sheets.
Sri Lankan forces defeated the Tamil Tiger rebels in 2009, ending a civil war that took over 100,000 lives, with both sides accused of grave human rights violations.
Harischandra, who witnessed the attack at the Shangri-La Hotel, said there was “a lot of tension” after the bombings, but added: “We’ve been through these kinds of situations before.”
He said Sri Lankans are “an amazing bunch” and noted that his social media feed was flooded with photos of people standing in long lines to give blood. | <urn:uuid:c951ce90-d177-4eab-994c-23d8c283fbf4> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://factswanted.com/2019/04/22/possible-intel-failures-to-be-examined-in-sri-lanka-blasts/ | 2019-11-13T19:52:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496667333.2/warc/CC-MAIN-20191113191653-20191113215653-00037.warc.gz | en | 0.976922 | 1,249 | [

About this Event
RESEARCH: Contemporary research is indicating that the increasing rapid and significant changes impacting sociotechnical work systems will require different approaches to effectively manage risks. Future research activities, research contexts and research personnel may be quite different from the past and current practices. How people interact with technology and their work environments will also change rapidly and it will be essential to have risk management approaches that can effectively adapt to address future risks. Research suggests that the traditional risk management approaches may not necessarily help researchers identify the contemporary and emergent risks. However, there seems to be a lack of research done to develop approaches that help manage future risks in research and development environments. Therefore, to help ensure research worker safety performance into the future, there is a need to explore the various socio-technical elements that impact risk identification, assessment, and management.
PRESENTATION: This 45 minute presentation will discuss the PhD research investigating the current methods used for risk identification by researcher staff in an industrial and university context and will explore the possible future tools and strategies that could help front-line workers more effectively identify, assess and manage foreseeable and emergent risks without stifling innovativeness.
SPEAKER: Jo Kirby is a Chartered Chemical Engineer with 16 years’ experience working as both a process design engineer and commissioning engineer on many major projects in Australia and South East Asia. Jo has held a number of different voluntary positions on Engineers Australia’s professional committees, including the Joint Chemical Engineering Committee (JCEC) Queensland, Queensland Division Committee, Chair of Women in Engineering National Committee (WIENC) and member of the EA Chemical College Board. Jo is currently completing an industry partnered PhD with Boeing Research and Technology Australia at the University of Queensland School of Chemical Engineering. During this time, Jo is a casual lecturer and tutor with the Faculty of Engineering, Architecture and Information Technology and the School of Chemical Engineering. Jo still engages with industry through her private consultant engineering business.
TRANSPORTATION: Short distance from the Canada Line (Olympic Village Station). Paid public or street parking.
FOOD: Snacks and refreshments provided.

Good night sleep is possible now
Good night sleep is one of the most essential rest cycles needed to maintain a healthy body. Different creatures on this planet have different sleep cycles and some don’t sleep altogether. Humans have a sleep cycle too. A healthy sleep cycle is a biological need for a healthy body and mind. This biological needs consist of waking up, urinating and defecating, eating, drinking, rest, pro-create and sleep. This natural sleep cycle, when followed, gives optimal health to the body. There is always a when to do what biological principle that we humans need to follow every day.
All humans have identical sleep cycles except that there is a small variation in the quality of sleep we enjoy. The ideal sleep cycle we all have is to sleep a couple of hours after sunset and wake up before sunrise. Tranditionally, Indians used to sleep latest by 8:30 – 9:00pm and wake up before 4:00am. This sleep cycle is considered most healthy.
A Good Night Sleep
A good night sleep is going to bed by 9:30pm latest and waking up an hour before sunrise. Ideally, you will have about 6 1/2 to 7 hours of good sleep time. If your body structure is broad and heavy, your mind need to sleep less hours. If your body type is lean and oily texture, you might need quality sleep but wake up before sunrise. If your body structure is lean or stout and skin texture is dry, you might have to sleep early and avoid late nights and wake up before 6:00 am Based on your body type, a slight modification will be necessary so that your body can have optimum benefit from your sleep.
Stages of sleep
When you have a good night sleep, you go through stages of sleep.
The two main stages of sleep are REM (random eye movement) sleep, which is not deep sleep and then there is deep sleep. Dreaming is a part of sleep which happens in REM sleep. Since dreams are essentially an alternate reality we are living in another time frame, your body responds in real time. Your heart rate may increase and certain secretions may also happen during this time.
The second type of sleep is the deep sleep. This is the time when your body is totally resting and rejuvenating.
If the mind is more engaged in REM sleep, then the body gets less rest. During REM sleep, your body begins to express symptoms of sleep deprivation, snoring,
What is Sleep Deprivation?
When the mind is focussed on thinking about the future, anxiety sets in. Anxiety and sleeplessness are mutually contributing. Anxiety causes a person to be wandering in his sleep which leads to lack of sleep and snoring or worse, stays wide eyed and awake which may lead to insomnia. Sleep deprivation can also happen when anxiety causes a person to indulge in social media which may again lead to insomnia. This habit can make a person deprived of sleep. You need to know that sleeping extra hours and waking up in the later parts of the day does not contribute to completing your sleep.
What causes Snoring?
When anxiety increases, the mind becomes hyperactive and restlessness in the body increases. Restlessness in the body results in an imbalance in Prana. To balance Prana, a flap called epiglottis partially closes the windpipe. This produces a sound which we recognise as snoring. Snoring in an indicator that the body’s energies are depleting. The body demands rest. When we give the body adequate rest with a good night sleep, snoring will stop. Avoiding sleep and over-working the body and mind can cause snoring to aggravate progressively leading to a symptom called sleep apnoea. Snoring when not addressed, can lead to serious heart conditions.
Do your own Sleep Study
Is there a way to know whether you had a good night sleep last night? The answer is yes. You can do your own sleep study.
1. Did you feel like you want to go to bed?
2. Did you stop all activities at least 15 minutes before getting to bed?
3. How did you prepare to go to bed? Like washing your feet with warm water or having a shower?
4. After lying down, did you take time to slip into sleep?
The morning after your sleep, assess these parameters;
1. Did you wake up to an alarm or did sleep simply get over?
2. When you woke up, did you feel fresh and awake? Or did you feel groggy and sleepy?
3. Did you wake up feeling light and eyes wide awake? Or did you wake up feeling heavy in body and dull in mind?
You’ll know from your answers how your sleep cycle has been.
Diagnosing Sleep Problems
Improper sleep can cause several sleep problems. Though you can find out how your sleep cycle has been, it may not be possible for everyone to find out what their sleep is doing to them. Sleep deprivation can lead to symptoms such as snoring, sleep apnoea, depression, anxiety, restlessness, fatiguing pain, undiagnosed pain, weak memory, burning sensation in hands and feet, hair fall, constipation and several other symptoms.
Sleep problems can be diagnosed by performing
Can I Sleep Less?
People today are over occupied and compromise on their sleep. It is understood that sleep deprivation causes problems. But, can I sleep less and still benefit? The answer is a big YES!
How to Sleep Less and Sleep Better?
The other ways to sleep better and a little less are;
1. Dip your feet in moderately hot water for 10 minutes before you go to sleep. Though results of shorter hours of
sleep are not immediate, you will eventually not need long sleeping hours.
2. Having a bath before sleep is also a good way to have a good night sleep and sleep a little less.
3. Observing your breath flow into your nostrils is yet another way of slipping into sleep.
4. Some people chant mantras to get to sleep.
The author, Mahesh Krishnamurthy, has more than two decades of experience diagnosing physiological and emotional causes of sleep deprivation. He has since helped over 43000 people. | <urn:uuid:9bcb1e5b-d85d-44d5-a9c5-d6a943b56764> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.nadichikitsa.com/2018/07/good-night-sleep-possible-now/ | 2019-11-17T13:37:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496668954.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20191117115233-20191117143233-00357.warc.gz | en | 0.943812 | 1,292 | [

Thanks to tipster Nathan, DAC has a bullet-pointed summary of the important bits from a Fallout: New Vegas preview out of the UK XBox 360 World magazine. Some of you might already know about a lot of the stuff in the article, but for those who don't - read on:
The tagline says: "A Safe Bet for RPG Fans"
Hardcore mode: Stimpaks take a long time to heal, you need a Doctor's Bag to heal broken limbs, and you suffer from Dehydration so you need to carry water.
Dynamite is one of the first weapons you come across
Obsidian have focused much more on the story than Bethesda did with Fallout 3
VATS now includes a special attack for every weapon
Weapons can be modded - one of the mods involves reducing the spooling time for miniguns.
All of your skills can be used to influence dialogue
A "Command/Companion Wheel" gives you control over your followers - the design of this isn't finalized yet
Nightkin are back and can cloak
The Hoover Dam is intact and produces electricity
Electricity seems to be one of the main things in the game
There are 3 factions - the NCR, Caesar's Legion, and (although unconfirmed) the Brotherhood of Steel
The Helios One solar tower controls an orbital laser platform
You can get a portable controller for the laser platform and use it throughout the game
Lots of "grey areas" in terms of actions and dialogue - a combined reputation and morality system means everything you do has an effect on something in one way or another.
New Vegas will have different endings, "instead of the single, potentially anachronistic 'man/woman saves the Wasteland' finale."
The overall theme of the game is about trying to find out who tried to kill you and why.
New weapon - The "All-American" - a rapid fire Sniper Rifle | <urn:uuid:07fdc4fb-9f16-4704-88bd-e8151a4c5079> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | http://www.duckandcover.cx/archives.php?id=10032 | 2019-11-19T00:05:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496669868.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20191118232526-20191119020526-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.929622 | 398 | [

ACT Australian of the Year 2013 - Dr Tom Calma AO
ACT Senior Australian of the Year 2013 - Dr Jim Peacock AC
ACT Young Australian of the Year 2013 - Julie McKay
ACT Local Hero 2013 - Francis Owusu
Social justice campaigner Dr Tom Calma AO has been awarded ACT Australian of the Year 2013 for his work as an inspirational advocate for human rights and social justice having dedicated his life to improving the lives of Indigenous Australians.
For more than four decades he has championed the importance of empowerment – a passion which runs through his work in education, training, employment, health, justice reinvestment and development.
Tom was formerly the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice Commissioner and Race Discrimination Commissioner. He works to create opportunities for Indigenous voices to be heard and to build partnerships to improve their health, well-being and economic independence.
His landmark report calling for the life expectancy gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people to be closed within a generation laid the groundwork for the Close the Gap campaign.
As Race Discrimination Commissioner and today, Tom works to advance Australia as an inclusive society including many roles in the community relating to social inclusion, reconciliation, mental health and higher education.
Dr Jim Peacock AC has been awarded ACT Senior Australian of the Year 2013 for his work as an agricultural scientist.
As the head of the CSIRO Plant Industry division for 26 years, Dr Jim Peacock has been at the frontline of food and agricultural breakthroughs including the development of insect resistant cotton in Australia.
He has long championed the great benefits of industry partnered science, establishing the CSIRO as one of the leading plant research institutes in the world.
His achievements in gene technology include the development of a low GI, high fibre variety of barley and, more recently, advances in plant hybrid vigour with significant implications for global food security.
Australia’s Chief Scientist from 2006 to 2008, Jim is regarded as a committed, energetic and inspirational leader in the science world. He is also dedicated to instilling the excitement and the potential of science in young Australians. One novel approach was to pair more than 1,500 of Australia’s leading scientists with primary and high school teachers.
Jim was also a driving force behind the establishment of the Discovery Centre in Canberra to showcase CSIRO research, connect industry and science and to give thousands of children the opportunity to have a ‘hands-on’ science experience.
ACT Young Australian of the Year 2013 is 29 year old women’s advocate Julie McKay.
From a small office in Canberra, Julie McKay is part of a global United Nations campaign to improve the lives of the millions of women who every day struggle against poverty, violence and discrimination.
As Executive Director of UN Women Australia, Julie combines her passion for social justice with her leadership and management skills to expand the organisation’s reach and strengthen its links with government and business.
In 2010 she was the Australian Institute of Management’s Young Manager of the Year and the following year she was the Telstra Young Business Woman of the Year in the ACT. She recently completed a Global Executive MBA at the University of Sydney.
A remarkable role model for young women, Julie takes on the critical challenges for women today including improving their economic independence, encouraging more women to be role models and leaders and reducing violence against women both in Australia and the world.
Her experience in the corporate and not for profit sectors and her postgraduate studies in management and public policy make her an outstanding advocate for women.
Dancer and mentor, Francis Owusu has been awarded ACT Local Hero 2013 for his use of dance to stimulate others to build their confidence and self-belief, as it did for him.
A child of Ghanaian parents, Francis grew up in Victoria where he endured racism born of ignorance which almost propelled him towards a life of crime.
Moving to Canberra he turned his life around through dance, going on to study finance banking at university by day and exploding on stage by night as a member of the band 925.
During his career he has worked with major recording artists Marcia Hines, Jon Stevens and Guy Sebastian.
Driven by a determination to share his good fortune, he organised after-school dance classes for children. And so began Kulture Break, its name reflecting Francis’ passion to transform a culture of negativity into a culture of pride and achievement.
Over the past decade Francis and Kulture Break have performed with thousands of children in schools, community centres and jails, inspiring and motivating them. For Francis, Kulture Break is a reflection of his belief that life is not characterised by what you have received but what you can give.
The ACT award recipients will join recipients from the other States and Territories as finalists for the national awards announced on 25 January 2013 in Canberra.
National Australia Day Council CEO, Mr Graham West, said the ACT award recipients are all extraordinary people doing vital work in our community.
“The ACT award recipients come from varied backgrounds and areas of expertise but they have all been awarded for their dedication to making the world a better place," said Mr West.
The Commonwealth Bank has been the Major Sponsor of the Australian of the Year Awards for more than 30 years. Chief Executive Officer Ian Narev congratulated the ACT award recipients.
“The Commonwealth Bank is proud to acknowledge the ACT award recipients. You are now national finalists in the Australian of the Year Awards and should be very proud of your achievement.
“While you have each been inspiring in your own way, you all share one common quality – you continue to selflessly improve the lives of others. Congratulations to you all and enjoy your time in Canberra in January” said Mr Narev.
The Award ceremony also honoured the life of Rhonda Obad OAM - a finalist in the 2013 ACT Senior Australian of the Year category, who sadly died on Tuesday 20th November 2012 at the age of 64. Rhonda dedicated her life to helping others and established the Bridge Back to Life Foundation to help young homeless men. | <urn:uuid:6e40d812-2b4c-4763-bebf-699cbf837782> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.australianoftheyear.org.au/news-and-media/media-releases/article/?id=act-australian-of-the-year-awards-recipients-announced2 | 2019-11-19T00:19:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496669868.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20191118232526-20191119020526-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.963704 | 1,235 | [

The Mr. Moto films have been released in two four movie box sets, though one film, Mr. Moto’s Last Warning is in the public domain and has been available for years on dozens of DVD release.
Mr. Moto was created by James Marquand in 1935 and came to film in 1937 with Peter Lorre playing the role for eight films. All Oriental Detectives played by white actors are controversial, but in many ways, Lorre’s performance is different from the portrayal of several actors of the character of Charlie Chan.
Moto speaks in far less proverbs and is also a very active character, a master of the martial and disguise. His capacity and exact reason for being a detective follow him around the world with plenty of intrigue and more than its fair share of violence with Moto killing a few of his enemies in the course of the series.
There were eight Moto films released between 1937-39. For the most part, they are quite enjoyable with well-written plots, great acting by Peter Lorre, and plenty of excitement to go around. Moto operates as a complete man of mystery in the first film with you not even knowing what he wants. The second features Moto on the trail of a treasure and establishes a far more Eastern character.
The first two films were top notch. The third film, Mr. Moto Gamble was actually originally intended as a Charlie Chan feature that was handed over to Moto. This showed up. While Moto did get to use Judo, this one was a bit of an oddball, but entertaining in its own right.
The fourth film The Mysterious Mr. Moto Takes a Chance finds Moto undercover in Thailand as an archaeologist, actually undercover under two false identities. This film would introduce the worst element of later Moto films-the idiot sidekick. Here, it’s a minor distraction but around the time of the seventh film, it’d really begin to wear.
The second half of the Moto films began with The Mysterious Mr. Moto which has Moto going undercover as a Japanese killer and escaping with another convict from Devil’s Island and this one actually has Moto dealing with Anti-Oriental prejudice, a novel twist for the time.
The sixth film, Mr. Moto’s Last Warning is a great film with the star of the original Maltese Falcon playing a villainous ventriloquist as Moto appears to have been killed off for most of the film.
The seventh film was still okay, but it Danger Island was clearly a declining effort. The stupid sidekick was more annoying and the inclusion of the gratuitous Black character afraid of “the spook” doesn’t age well for modern audiences. While the mystery is clever enough, a bad casting choice mars the solution.
The Final Lorre film Mr. Moto Takes a Vacation is proof that most mystery series of the era went one movie too long. Really, Lorre was tired, the writing was tired. As the commentary on the DVDs recounted, Lorre had felt like the studio had lied to him and instead of giving him a variety of rolls, had simply changed from casting him a murderous monster to casting him as Moto.
Speaking of the commentary, I have to give credit 20th Century Fox. They did a fine job of assembling interesting and informative commentators who knew their Moto. Each one except the last Moto film had a mini-featurette on the Moto films, the culture of the time, or Peter Lorre.
The eighth film didn’t have this. As an extra, it offered up a long lost 1965 Mr. Moto film starring Henry Silva that probably would have been better staying lost. The Moto character had changed from the original Japanese character to a Japanese American with a strong Japanese accent in the 1950s radio show to Silva’s Moto with no sign of being Japanese by any measure. Fox added as an extra, Mr. Silva providing commentary on the film. However, it became clear that the then 78 year old Silva had little real recollection of his work on the forgettable film forty years before, so instead he rambled on without any rhyme or reason for most of the film.
Putting aside, the issue with the eighth film (and it’s awful extras), the Moto series at its best was well-done, exciting, and entertaining. It’s a great showcase for Lorre, particularly if you’ve only seen him playing him the villain. Fox added some good extras and even the Silva film is of interest if you want to see anything with Moto in it.

The art of tea drinking has never been so popular and an art it truly has become.
Though we can lay no claim to producing this fine plant, we are one of the top tea consumers in the world and it is engrained in our history from when we began smuggling tea plants from China in the 1840s. Initially a drink for members of the aristocracy, it is now enjoyed by those from all walks of life. Whether you prefer to curl up on the sofa with a brew or take a trip to a tearoom with friends, Norwich has the answer to all of your tea drinking needs.
Our high streets are teeming with coffee shops but it seems that we are now beginning to favour the leaf over the bean as more and more tearooms are popping up around the country. The most eclectic of Norwich’s tearooms is Biddy’s on Lower Goat Lane. This delightful place boasts an array of locally made pies and cupcakes to accompany the tea of your choice served in traditional pots and cups. Here you can enjoy the full monty of sandwiches, scones, cake and tea in the bustling tearoom upstairs or sit amidst the antique furnishings with a teacup of carrot cake.
The Assembly House on Theatre Street offers perhaps the most traditional of afternoon teas in Norwich. The tea purists among you will be happy to know that all of their teas, from the decaffeinated Roobois to their fruity blends, are served loose leaf with free refills and you can also indulge in extra sandwiches free of charge! Their afternoon tea is a treat at £16 but money well spent for the beautiful setting and excellent attention to detail.
For tea on the go and the lowest price in the city, pop into Norwich market where an energising cuppa will cost you no more than a pound, though if your thirst has still not been quenched, the city has some great shops where you can pick up your favourite blend and try it at home, or take in a flask to university.
There is of course nothing wrong with your supermarket teabag but for flavours of a more exotic nature and your choice of quantity, head to Wilkinson’s tea and coffee merchants on Lobster Lane. The aromas of coffee and tea fill your nostrils the instant the door opens into this dinky shop with barrel upon barrel of tea on display. The owners will point you in the right direction for your preference of blend and there really is something for everyone here. In the interest of balance, it must be noted that the coffee here is very good as well, for those who favour the bean.
Just when you thought there could be nothing more for Norwich to offer the avid tea fan, a must see for anyone interested in the history of the pot is the world’s largest teapot and largest collection of teapots currently housed in the Castle Museum in the centre of town. | <urn:uuid:1bf99cdd-27ef-4465-be69-5056c5e057f7> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.concrete-online.co.uk/norwich-tea/ | 2019-11-20T14:39:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670559.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20191120134617-20191120162617-00117.warc.gz | en | 0.965908 | 597 | [

I’ve been preparing for a new year, a new school, and a new role for about two months now, and though the reality of my amazing opportunity hasn’t fully set in, the enormity of the task of preparation is definitely sinking in. A new school means getting to know new people, past practices, partnerships, protocols, policies….and possibilities.
The role is one I’m most definitely excited about: Principal of my old high school! How cool is that!? What a way to celebrate 20 years since I graduated from Marathon High School. In fact, when I graduated, I was selected to be Valedictorian. When I delivered my speech, I took a picture of the audience. I certainly could not have foreseen the future then, but this picture is important to me because seated in the first rows are the educators who helped me get to where I am. Though I won’t have the privilege of working with my former teachers, I’m lucky to have many of them in my circle.
Anyway, the adventure begins this week with setting up my office, getting to know staff, and 2.5 days of learning with colleagues from across our board and though returning to a consistent schedule will be a shock to the system, I’m excited for it. In the meantime, lots of reading and wonderings about:
- What does effective leadership look like at Marathon High School?
- How do I build trusting relationships with my people?
- What can I do to build student engagement to create a positive learning environment?
- How can I work to balance mental health and well-being with academic achievement within the school?
- What don’t I know that I need to know?
There is, I am sure, so many things that I don’t know. I know from my first year as an administrator at B.A. Parker Public School that come the first day, I’ll be hitting the ground running – but that’s a good thing. I think one of the biggest challenges is entering a school where I don’t have the same relationships with people like I had over the past 14 years. For that reason, I think it’s important for me to observe, to listen, to be patient, and to build relationships. I cannot – and will not – go in like a bull in a china shop because that is neither my style nor a system that ever seems to work! I do hope that I will have an opportunity to reflect, to be open, and to be vulnerable on this blog.
I am going to head back to reading, reflecting, and readying myself for this incredible adventure!

Life passes, unfettered by the loss in us
I want to touch the echo of you with hands
time has counted twice
Morning’s claw does rive mine empty mind
From dreams more full
And coloured than time aware.
arid fantasy does drift away
to morning dew upon lip of leaf,
to glisten in rays of layered gold
We are creatures on a strange ship
In a curious place. See – the island lies,
All life and shade, its green banks
Like shiny apples on a ghostly tree.
behold the Fleece hangs dimly
upon crippled limbs, brittle coppers
casting what little light they may
comforts aplenty beseech us to shore
It had once known splendour, too.
The jewelled hands of kings did brush
It’s ‘chanted thread.
And so it seems, we none of us
Have waged with Time and won.
A parade of somber gaiety
These feeble celebrations deem us…

Expect to find your 'writing voice', or to develop your existing manuscript, while relaxing under the Tuscan sun with likeminded souls, savouring delicious Italian cuisine cooked by our in-house chef, and enjoying the best of local wines.
FREE YOUR STORY
How do you write powerful emotion in fiction? In this video one of our tutors, Paul McVeigh, talks about how he connects to his characters, and thereby connects them to the reader.
"Rather than saying my character is this person and here’s where they are emotionally, rather than telling us that, you show us. . . If you think people were reading me, what would they be taking away? So you say, what are the things my eye catches? Why is that important to me? What do I remember?" | <urn:uuid:e3ba9c3c-ee54-4793-b7c1-e64d6b0c86f9> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.freewithwords.com/the-next-retreat | 2019-11-22T02:30:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496671106.83/warc/CC-MAIN-20191122014756-20191122042756-00277.warc.gz | en | 0.963329 | 215 | [

While the process of a referral actually becoming a consultation can vary quite a bit, how providers decide to whom to refer their patients to usually doesn’t: they typically refer to the same specialists and groups that they always use, much like how people order the same meal or two when they go to a particular restaurant.
How providers decided to use those specialists in the first place was typically based on fairly subjective criteria, such as their office partners use them, they live down the street or go to church with them, they hear good things from colleagues and patients, etc.
Now to be fair, until very recently, there hasn’t been a more objective way to decide which specialists should see patients, so providers had to base their decisions on available information. Whether it is your go-to general surgeon or how you order your steak, it’s easy to fall into habits.
Fortunately, we increasingly have the ability to make intelligent referrals based on pertinent and more objective data, with an ultimate goal of referring a patient to the specialist who is most likely to deliver timely, high quality and cost-effective care and to offer the patient a good experience along the way.
With access to this type of actionable information, providers may change (or affirm) their habitual referral patterns to ensure that their patients are seeing the best specialists for any given reason. | <urn:uuid:279f2b2f-7d93-4e36-a69e-4a6753c9a235> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.usa.philips.com/healthcare/education-resources/publications/population-health-insights/blogs/advance-your-referral-intelligence | 2019-11-17T18:30:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496669225.56/warc/CC-MAIN-20191117165616-20191117193616-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.966139 | 275 | [

There is no one product that can stop all cyber-attacks. The best defense is a multilayered strategy. It takes a combination of on-premise hardware and software, cloud services, network monitoring and employee training on security practices and procedures to create a secure environment.
There is no one-size-fits-all service plan. The products and services we use to secure your environment will depend largely on the threats facing your industry as well as your specific business. Workflows, Wi-Fi use, mobile computing and BYOD also contribute to the threat landscape. Regulatory compliance such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, DFARS, FINRA, GLDB and others will further contribute to the required security measures.
It can get complicated, but we'll keep it simple for you.

Shared bed, will it work for my family?
IN RECENT YEARS, THERE HAS BEEN AN INCREASED USE OF THE SHARED BED METHOD IN THE UNITED STATES. But will it work for my family?
Let’s look at some pros and cons reported by some moms:
- Ease in Breastfeeding (Free Demand at night);
- Mothers can react faster to the baby’s needs.
- Parents who spend all day outside can enjoy this time with their baby;
QUESTIONS: Is a shared bed a bad habit? Certainly not! The bed is shared and a family option, and if the family is happy then it is a great habit;
Is it possible to share a bed and have healthy sleep habits? Yes. A shared bed is just where the baby sleeps, it does not mean that by sleeping in bed he/she can’t have healthy sleep habits;
NOTE: Always follow security measures for a shared bed
- Some parents report that they can’t relax and sleep deeply because they are very alert knowing that their little baby is in bed;
- Babies make a lot of noise and even cry while sleeping. Really? Yes, so if the baby is in bed with the parents, sometimes he/she would go back to sleep alone which is important for the baby’s sleep maturation, but the parents thought that he/she woke up and then they pick him/her up, or breastfeed him/her and the baby does not learn to go back to sleep alone.
- The Parent’s Room will be the baby’s room for a few years.
- Some parents report not having the time to talk, to date;
- Some experts say it is important for the child to develop their individuality, which begins to happen in the room itself.
- With the arrival of the new sibling, will he/she think we have a preference for the new little siblingsince he/she’s going to have to get out of bed for the new baby to sleep with us? Could everyone sleep together in the same bed?
- Babies get used to having company in the bed and the mother needs to go to bed very early, because if the mother gets up from the bed the baby wakes up;
- If one parent drinks, that night he/she should not sleep in the same bed as the baby; What if the two of you drink? It is absolutely necessary for the baby to sleep in the crib;
- When there is no consensus from both parents the shared bed can become a problem for the marriage;
- The American Pediatric Society: It is not recommended for safety, but sharing the room is recommended;
- There is a greater risk of sudden death associated with shared bed use.
CONCLUDING, THE SHARED BED IS NOT FOR EVERYONE. SOME PARENTS ARE NOT ABLE TO COMFORTABLY SLEEP WITH A BABY IN THE BED, AND SOME BABIES ARE EASILY AWAKENED BY NIGHT SPOILS. IN OTHER CASES, PARENTS MAY NOT BE WILLING OR ABLE TO GIVE UP OF THINGS LIKE PILLOWS AND COVERS FOR EXAMPLE, SO THAT THE BED COULD BE TRANSFORMED INTO A SAFE PLACE.
FOR THE BABY TO SLEEP. IN SUCH SITUATIONS PARENTS MAY PREFER TO HAVE THE BABY IN THE CRIB SHARING ONLY THE ROOM, OR ANOTHER ROOM DEPENDING ON THE FACTORS INVOLVED.
And also, what is a con for one family may not be for another. Study and evaluate what will work best for you, enjoy your little baby and this wonderful moment that is coming! | <urn:uuid:f7d8977a-e5b0-4bdf-8a6d-eda6460b1a36> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://bebedorminhoco.com.br/en/shared-bed-will-it-work-for-my-family/ | 2019-11-20T17:43:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670597.74/warc/CC-MAIN-20191120162215-20191120190215-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.924552 | 792 | [

Oh, and out of those three, there was this guy...

Are you breaking your fasts with stolen dates?
Also read Fatwa: ‘Israeli’ dates are Haram to Buy & Sell by Sheikh (Dr) Haitham al-Haddad
Alḥamdulillāh, the holy month of Ramaḍān is upon us once more. A blessed time wherein we unite with our families, strengthen our attachment to the Qur’ān and increase our ʿibādah in the hopes of taking advantage of the Month of Mercy, Forgiveness and Salvation, inshāAllāh. And of course, we fast. We spend our entire day abstaining from food and drink, guarding our eyes and our ears and controlling our actions, our words and our thoughts. And, as the sun sets, our families come together to share a meal, while we remember the oppressed, the poor and the hungry.
This image, I am sure, resonates with many of us, along with the single, almost guaranteed, food staple at every iftār, the date.
It is reported in a ḥadīth that,
The Prophet (sall Allāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam) said, “Break your fast by eating dates as it is purifying.”
There is much wisdom in following this tradition as ʿĀ’isha (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanha) also reports that the Prophet (sall Allāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam) said, “Indeed in dates there is a cure”.
In an essay on the “Nutritional and Medicinal Value of Date Fruit”, Ali et al. detail an impressive multitude of health benefits of the date fruit, including:
– It being restorative and nourishing for the lining of the stomach
– A remedy to treat dehydration
– A source of fibre, vitamins and minerals, including calcium and iron
– High in sucrose, glucose and fructose – natural sugars that release energy throughout the day
It is no wonder, then, that during Ramaḍān alone billions of dates are consumed every single day, making the date market worth billions of pounds worldwide. However, during this holy month of spiritual, physical and material cleansing, wherein our every action is carefully thought over, many of us are unaware of the terrible reality that our food, the dates with which we break our fast, are ill-begotten. In the Qur’ān we are commanded:
“O mankind, eat from whatever is on earth [that is] ḥalāl and pure”
“When discussing the adab of consumption, the Qur’ān refers to the concepts of ‘halal’ (permissible) and ‘tayyib’ (pure and good) – in other words, law and ethics. Both are to be taken into consideration.” It is imperative that we determine not just whether our food is ḥalāl, in that it has been sacrificed according to the standards of Islamic law, but whether or not our food has been ethically sourced. Unfortunately, as is the case with over 50% of the world’s Medjool dates, what we break our fast with has been produced as a result of the inhumane treatment; the suffering and slaughter of Palestinians.
On the 19th January 2013 a Palestinian mother and her child were attacked by Israeli soldiers. She was violently taken from her farmland in Um El-Arayes, kidnapped, and imprisoned in a notorious women’s prison – made famous for its torture of its prisoners. Her land was declared a ‘military zone’. Countless Palestinians live the same nightmare: they are imprisoned, their land is taken and sold to Israeli settlers who then profit from the stolen produce.
Israeli settlements built on stolen Palestinian land have been ruled illegal by the International Court of Justice. Nearly half of the settlements in the Jordan Valley grow dates; it is their most profitable crop, and contributes significantly to their economic viability. 60% of Israeli dates are grown on illegal settlement plantations in the Jordan Valley.
The truth of the situation is appalling, and yet it remains largely unrecognised. The majority of dates found in major supermarkets all over the world are grown on stolen Palestinian land. Israeli settlers then employ a system of exploitation, paying meagre sums to Palestinian labourers as they are made to endure torturous working conditions.
During the pruning season, workers are dropped on the date palm trees by a hoisting crane at 5 in the morning, left perched on palms that soar to heights of 12 metres – a 4 storey building, left there swaying in the wind for up to 8 hours without [a] break, with no means to come down until the crane returns at the end of the day, the workers cling to the tree with one arm and work with the other to meet their quota. If they fall behind they will lose their jobs.
In addition to supporting the stripping of Palestinian land by Israeli settlers and the exploitation of Palestinian labourers, by purchasing dates grown on Israeli settlements we encourage and endorse child labour. Desperate Palestinian children, from poverty-stricken families, are forced into work. They are issued official work permits under which they are cheated and humiliated.
Astaghfirullāh, where is our money going? What is it funding?
Below is a list of the brand names Israeli dates are sold under:
- Jordan River
- King Solomon
- Tamara Barhi Dates
- Desert Diamond
- Shams and Delilah
- Premium Medjoul
- Fancy Medjoul
- Royal Treasure
- Red Sea
More information about these producers and brand names can be found here.
In a recent ‘Check the Label’ campaign The Palestinian Solidarity Campaign found that Israeli dates were sold en masse in major supermarkets in the UK and all over the world.
– As well as selling Hadiklaim dates, Waitrose also sells Israeli dates under the label, ‘Love life Hadrawi dates’.
– Tesco sells Israeli dates under its ‘Finest’ brand. Its ‘Tesco Finest King Solomon Dates’ are produce of Israel. Other Tesco-branded dates which are from Israel include ‘Tesco Halawi Dates’ and ‘Tesco Wholefoods Medjool Dates’.
– Sainsbury’s ‘Taste the Difference Medjool Dates’ are grown in Israel.
– Morrisons’ ‘M Signature Medjool Dates’ are grown and packaged in Israel.
Undoubtedly many have heard of previous campaigns to boycott produce. Boycotting is a well established tool for consumer activism and its efficacy is well known. It is necessary now, in Ramaḍān, when Israeli settlers enjoy the greatest profit that we become ever more cautious of the dates we purchase. Not only should we use our consumer power to reward ethical retailers and suppliers, but we should use our voices and connections to spread information to those in our sphere of influence of those retailers and suppliers guilty of supporting such ethnic cleansing and other unethical trading practices. Some retailers in the UK such as The Co-op, due to their ethical standards, have ceased dealing with suppliers that source from illegal Israeli settlements which, they say, corresponds to around £350,000 in trade.
Do not bring unethically and inhumanely sourced dates into your homes; do not break your fast with dates grown on stolen land; do not spend your earnings to support these crimes. This Ramaḍān, Check the Label; boycott Israeli dates grown on stolen Palestinian land.

Many of us have heard of the horrors in Uganda through different organizations like Invisible Children, which launched the awareness video “Kony 2012” earlier this year.
While Invisible Children is on a mission to raise awareness for the actions of Joseph Kony – leader of the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) – another project, Village of Hope (VOH), is working against the atrocious after-effects of a 23-year-old war fought against the LAR in Uganda.
The LAR is responsible for the abduction of an estimated 66,000 children, from which girls were sold as sex slaves and boys were handed guns and forced to fight against their own people. They were often told to kill their own families.
More than four years ago, Bay Life Church in Brandon began Village of Hope directed by Cindy Cunningham. The project was presented to the church, the congregation raised more than $30,000 during one month, which allowed Bay Life to purchase 100 acres of land in Uganda.
VOH consists of school buildings, living quarters for the children and huts for the workers. A trade school is even being built on a recently purchased 50 acres of land, to teach the children farming and raising animals like pigs and tilapia.
One Bay Life Church member, Anthony Towers, is on a mission to raise awareness for VOH.
Towers, a professional photographer with an Associate’s Degree in Digital Photography, will be travelling to Uganda on June 27 (along with Alex Gortot and Chris NeSmith) to photograph some of the 200 children being cared for at VOH. These pictures, along with the children’s stories and personal drawings, will be compiled into a coffee table book. Towers’ mission is called “Project Hope.”
The purpose of Project Hope is to raise awareness for the village, encourage people to sponsor the children, and provide VOH with the coffee table book as a vehicle for fundraising. It takes $1,200 to support one child for a year. If Towers can finish raising $16,500 by the end of May, he will be able to pay for the trip, purchase additional photography equipment and have 300 copies of the book made to take to Uganda. “Once the book is done, VOH will get all of the proceeds,” commented Towers. “My goal is to see the book on as many coffee tables, in as many living rooms, as possible.”
Towers is looking for sponsors as well as donors. People who donate between $50 – $100 will receive a copy of the book prior to publication; donations of $100 or more will receive the same, as well as a “behind the scenes” DVD with video footage and extra pictures. Corporate sponsors ($500) will be mentioned in the book.

The Secrets of Life, the Universe, and Everything
Betteridge’s Law: “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.”
Brandolini’s Law: “The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it.”
Campbell’s Law: “The more any quantitative social indicator is used for social decision-making, the more subject it will be to corruption pressures and the more apt it will be to distort and corrupt the social processes it is intended to monitor.” Similar to Goodhart’s Law: a metric that becomes a target ceases to be a useful metric.
The Dunning–Kruger Effect: “a cognitive bias wherein people of low ability have illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their cognitive ability as greater than it is.”
Fundamental Attribution Error: “the tendency people have to overemphasize personal characteristics and ignore situational factors in judging others’ behavior. Because of the fundamental attribution error, we tend to believe that others do bad things because they are bad people. We’re inclined to ignore situational factors that might have played a role.”
The Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect: “I believe everything the media tells me except for anything for which I have direct personal knowledge, which they always get wrong.”
Godwin’s Law: “as an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1; that is, if an online discussion (regardless of topic or scope) goes on long enough, sooner or later someone will compare someone or something to Adolf Hitler or his deeds, the point at which effectively the discussion or thread often ends.”
Hanlon’s Razor: “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”
The Lindy Effect: “the observed lifespan of a non-perishable item like a business is most likely to be at its half-life. So, if a business is 100 years old, [one] should expect it to be around for another 100 years. And a business that has been around for 10 years should be around for another 10 years. Under the Effect, the mortality of a business actually decreases with time.”
Occam’s Razor: Short version: “when you have two competing theories that make exactly the same predictions, the simpler one is the better.” Sometimes modified to: “The explanation requiring the fewest assumptions is most likely to be correct.” Longer version: If two competing theories explain a single phenomenon, and they both generally reach the same conclusion, and they are both equally persuasive and convincing, and they both explain the problem or situation satisfactorily, the logician should always pick the less complex one.
Poe’s Law: “Without a clear indication of the author’s intent, it is difficult or impossible to tell the difference between an expression of sincere extremism and a parody of extremism.”
The Pratfall Effect: a psychological phenomenon that says that competent people appear more likeable and attractive when they make a mistake than when they are perfect.
The Pygmalion Effect: “the phenomenon whereby others’ expectations of a target person affect the target person’s performance. The effect is named after the Greek myth of Pygmalion, a sculptor who fell in love with a statue he had carved.” Also known as the Rosenthal Effect. “A corollary of the Pygmalion effect is the Golem Effect, in which low expectations lead to a decrease in performance; both effects are forms of self-fulfilling prophecy.”
The Righteousness Fallacy: “assuming that just because a person’s intentions are good, they have the truth or facts on their side.” Also known as the Fallacy of Good Intentions.
Shirky Principle: “Institutions will try to preserve the problem to which they are the solution.”
The Streisand Effect: “the unintended consequence of further publicizing information by trying to have it censored.”
Sturgeon’s Law: 99% of everything is crap.
Von Restorff Effect: a bias for remembering the unusual, also known as the Isolation Effect. “When multiple homogeneous stimuli are presented, the stimulus that differs from the rest is more likely to be remembered.” | <urn:uuid:086c3530-0276-4454-afa9-593e2a955688> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://thekeypoint.org/42-2/ | 2019-11-14T05:07:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496667945.28/warc/CC-MAIN-20191114030315-20191114054315-00357.warc.gz | en | 0.945057 | 948 | [

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — In his new autobiography, retired astronaut Scott Kelly gives an unflinchingly blunt take on his U.S. record-breaking year in space and the challenging life events that got him there.
This isn’t your usual astronaut’s memoir.
Kelly recounts dumpster diving on the International Space Station for discarded meals after a supply capsule was destroyed and ending up with “some dude’s used underwear” in his hands. He writes about the congestion, headaches and burning eyes he endured from high carbon dioxide levels and the feeling no one cared at Mission Control in Houston.
In his book, Kelly tells how prostate cancer surgery almost got him banned from space station duty, and how his vision problem during an earlier spaceflight almost cost him the one-year mission, which spanned from March 2015 to March 2016.
He tells how he visited a tattoo parlor before launch and got black dots all over his body to make it easier to take ultrasound tests in orbit, and how he fashioned extra puke bags for a nauseous crewmate.
Kelly said his goal in writing “Endurance: A Year in Space, A Lifetime of Discovery,” was to tell the whole story.
So many other NASA astronauts’ memoirs “focus on the good stuff and not necessarily the personal things that happened in their lives, things they might not be proud of, things that we all have that makes us normal, relatable people,” he told The Associated Press. “So I felt like sharing is good, but … the bad stuff, too, makes the story more believable.”
In the book, he writes about a little-known incident that he says occurred during his first space station stint in 2010, when a Russian cosmonaut came untethered during a spacewalk and began floating away. Luckily, Oleg Skripochka happened to hit an antenna that bounced him back toward the space station, enabling him to grab on and save his life, according to Kelly.
Even though he was aboard the space station at the time, Kelly said he didn’t learn about it until his yearlong mission five years later, when it casually came up in conversation with other cosmonauts. “I was like really? Holy crap. Crazy,” Kelly recalled in an AP interview.
He remembered Skripochka had looked shaken, but thought it was because he had been out on his first spacewalk.
On Wednesday, the Russian Space Agency’s press department said it contacted Skripochka, who did not confirm Kelly’s account. No other comment was provided.
“I’ve often pondered what we would have done if we’d known he was drifting irretrievably away from the station,” Kelly writes. “It probably would have been possible to tie his family into the comm system in his spacesuit so they could say good-bye before the rising CO2 or oxygen deprivation caused him to lose consciousness — not something I wanted to spend a lot of time thinking about as my own spacewalk was approaching.”
Published by Knopf , “Endurance” comes out Tuesday. So does a version for children, “My Journey to the Stars,” put out by Penguin Random House.
The 53-year-old Kelly said he didn’t discover his passion for aviation and space until reading Tom Wolfe’s 1979 book “The Right Stuff” in college. Kelly writes that he was a terrible student and likely suffered from attention deficit disorder.
The former spaceman also tells how he realized right before his wedding that he didn’t want to go through with it, but did anyway, leading to a troubled marriage and eventually divorce, and how he initially didn’t want “that space station stink” on him — getting space station assignments — for fear it would limit his shuttle-flying opportunities. He flew twice on space shuttles and had two extended stays at the space station, sharing the entire 340-day mission, his last, with Russian Mikhail Kornienko.
When asked if it was difficult exposing his weaknesses when astronauts are supposed to be perfect or close to it, Kelly replied, “Naw, I feel like I’m like a below-average guy doing slightly above-average stuff.”
Kelly figured he might write a book, given it was NASA’s longest single spaceflight ever. So he kept a journal in orbit and took notes about how the place looked, smelled and felt “to make someone feel like they were on the space station.”
“The book hasn’t come out yet,” Kelly said, “and as I get closer to it coming out, I’m thinking, ‘Man, I’ve got to live with this for the rest of my life.’ ”
Kelly’s identical twin brother, Mark, also a former Navy pilot and NASA astronaut as well as author, was among the several people who read early drafts. Scott Kelly devotes several pages to the 2011 shooting of his sister-in-law, former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. Aboard the space station at the time, Kelly wondered whether he was calling his family too much — “whether in my effort to be there for them I was becoming intrusive.”
Back on Earth and now retired for 1 — years, Kelly said he misses being in space. Of course, when he was in space, he missed Earth. He credits that saying to a Russian crewmate, Gennady Padalka, the world’s most experienced spaceman, and isn’t sure the saying made it into the book.
“I need to write a sequel of all the stuff I left out.”

Hey everyone. I’m Abby from LA, and I’m here with Brooklyn today, and welcome to Texas. This is the first post we’re filming in our new studio here in the Dallas area in our new house, and we have it pretty much set up like the old studio, so you guys should feel right at home with us. So let’s start. Today I’m going to show you how to do what I’m calling a Stacked Twist. This is similar to our Stacked Braids post you can check out here. If you want to go see that one. But it is a little different. I think it has a really fun look to it. So I started by just having Brooklyn put her hair in a little puff at the top like a pompadour and then into a high ponytail. So we wanted to work on it in a ponytail fashion today, but I think this would also look great just as an over-the-shoulder hairdo.

So to begin I’m just going to pick up a little section of hair right at the top of her ponytail. And I don’t want to get tons here. I’m just going to get like a medium sized piece. Not a huge piece, but not teeny tiny either. I’m going to have her just hang onto that to the side. Now the rest of the hair I’m going to just section into three pieces and do a basic braid. So here’s my first piece, my second, and my third. Now I’m going to begin a basic braid. Now, there are two ways to do a basic braid. You can do it where the edges come in over the middle piece like this. See how I’m bringing the edges in? Or you can do it like the opposite. I found that people either do one or the other. The second way is to take this middle piece and take it out over the edges like this. And that’s what we want today. So make sure when you’re doing yours that middle piece is coming out over the edges. So again, I’m going to take the middle piece and go out, and I’m going to do one stitch of the braid. Now on this piece, this rightmost piece, I’m going to go to the center, and I’m just going to separate off a little section like this.
I’m going to have her hang onto that. And then I’m going to continue the braid. Now that’s very much like our stacked braid where we kind of separate off pieces. Again, on this rightmost piece I’m going to grab a little section. Just her hand onto it. You can see I’m kind of creating a feather effect with the braid as I work my way down. Same thing here. Grab a little section, and just flip it to the side if you don’t have an extra pair of hands. And continue the braid. And each time I get to this right piece, I’m just going to grab another little section and keep it out of the way until you’re down to the bottom of the hair, and then you’re just going to secure the whole thing with an elastic. I’m going to maybe do one more right here and then I’ll be out of hair. When you get to the bottom, I’m going to just use a regular, kind of a big rubber band, right now just because it’s temporary. I’ll just hold it for a second. Hold that so it stays tight. You can see now we have our little feathery pieces going up the braid. You can let them go. Thanks. Now we’re going to take this top piece that we left out and we’re going to separate it into two, and we’re going to do a rope twist. So a rope twist, what you do is you’re going to twist both pieces the same direction, and then you’re going to twist them together the other direction. So I twisted to the right, and then I’m going to twist them together to the left.
So I’ll do it again so you can see it. Both pieces twist them both to the right, and then cross them over to the left. And we’re just going to keep twisting as we go down. Each piece to the right. And when we get to where that first feather comes in, I’m going to grab it and add it into that twist. And just go ahead and add it right in, and keep twisting. And when I get down to where the next feather is, pick it up, give it a twist, and add it in. You can see we’re just working our way down. Again, pick up the feather, twist it in, then work our way down, pick up a piece, twist it in. We’re nearing the end here. Again, pick up that little feather. And last but not least, her little shorty, and twist it in. And then when we get all the way to the end, I’m going to take my permanent elastic just a little one that will be less visible. Secure the whole thing, and then remove that bigger elastic. And then, what I’m going to do, just for added effect, is just go back. Pancake the braid a little bit. Did you just get the chills? Yeah. You tickled my neck. I saw her jump. Tickle, tickle, tickle. Ha, ha. And there you have it. This fun pony tail that just looks totally different, and is going to get a million complements with that little twist running down right over the smack top of it. I’ll spin her again. It looks great. I love it. Yay! Go us! You can check out Brooklyn at Instagram with her twin sister Bailey.

You’ve got graduated out of your level-and-shoot, so what’s next? Easy level-and-shoot cameras rely almost solely on their built-in automation and machine intelligence for capturing images below a wide range of situations and provide no manual management over their functions, a trait which makes them unsuitable to be used by professionals, fanatics and proficient consumers (aka “prosumers”). When you’re into sports, action and wildlife images, the modest 5fps burst shooting is perhaps a bit restrictive, but in any other case, the D810 is still a fantastic DSLR that is now better value than ever.
Canon EOS M6 pictured with the EVF-DC2, an accessory viewfinder with 2.36 million dot resolution. Nikon has some good cameras as nicely, however it’s personally not a route I might go. Canon has EF-S lenses for crop sensors, but keep in mind these lenses will not work on full-frame should you ever choose to improve. A photographer will typically use lenses made by the identical producer because the digital camera physique (for instance, Canon EF lenses on a Canon physique) though there are additionally many impartial lens producers, corresponding to Sigma , Tamron , Tokina , and Vivitar that make lenses for quite a lot of completely different lens mounts.
On August 25, 1981 Sony unveiled a prototype of the Sony Mavica This digital camera was an analog digital digicam that featured interchangeable lenses and a SLR viewfinder. Remember that with regards to video on a DSLR, handbook focus is the best way to go. Autofocus may be handy for static photographs, but I wouldn’t ever depend on it for the rest. It additionally immediately limits your lens choices as you need a STM lens to make autofocus work effectively.I like Canon because of the lens choices, but there are different nice manufacturers on the market.
The Canon EOS 77D features a vari-angle contact LCD display. DSLR cameras signify what is often considered the preëminent digital capture technology obtainable at the moment, through their meshing of the very best picture quality, velocity, intuitive design, and modular capabilities to swimsuit almost any type of images possible. The smaller sensors of Four Thirds System cameras have a crop issue of two.0.
Sigma produces DSLRs utilizing the Foveon X3 sensor , moderately than the conventional Bayer sensor This is claimed to offer increased colour decision, though headline pixel counts are lower than typical Bayer-sensor cameras. For Canon and Nikon, digital SLRs are their greatest source of earnings. On the reverse finish of the spectrum to some of the full-frame DSLRs right here, the D3400 is reasonable as chips, has one of the sharpest APS-C sensors there’s and a neat retracting kit lens. | <urn:uuid:5e6d4e66-488e-475c-9340-7dec598ec4d1> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | http://www.the-maxwell-group.com/canon-admits-it-has-a-ton-of-room-to-develop-in-video-eyes-4k-for.html | 2019-11-20T22:35:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670635.48/warc/CC-MAIN-20191120213017-20191121001017-00437.warc.gz | en | 0.9375 | 594 | [

Dear Adrien Brody,
You have been my favorite actor since I saw you in The Pianist. You totally deserved the Academy Award and even that very unexpected Halle Berry onstage make-out sesh.
Upon being introduced to you, I immediately watched some of your earlier films and fell in love with your acting ability and taste in movies.
I absolutely loved “Dummy” and eagerly anticipated your upcoming projects and ended up loving them all. I loved “The Village”, despite all the haters out there. “The Jacket” was awesome and I thoroughly enjoyed King Kong… well, only the first half that your were in. Then came “The Darjeeling Limited”, which is an incredibly amazing movie.
You have done some great work my friend. But then things started taking a turn for the worst. I watched from the sidelines as you’ve began to appear in questionable films like “Cadillac Records”. Despite these telling signs of a dramatic downfall, I purchased tickets to “Splice”, completely unprepared for what was to unfold before my eyes.
I have never been so disgusted by a movie. I actually felt dirty when I left the theater and was glad to have church later that afternoon. But I refused to give up hope. Curse my fan loyalty! I went to see “Predators” in 2010 and laughed throughout the film at the utter nonsense of it all. Then I saw you in a Superbowl commercial for Stella Artois and knew that you had hit rock bottom.
But no, just like this economy, you double-dipped. You starred in “The Experiment” (In my defense, I would never have gone and seen this film but my dad had rented it and made me watch it). HORRIBLE. I was saddened. What happened Adrien? Why are you choosing all these randomly horrible movies to star in? What happened to the days of “The Pianist”? The days where your characters had substance and your movies had plots? Your repertoire is a hot mess. But that was 2011. 2012 is a new year! You ended ’11 semi-strongly with a guest role in the Academy Award nominated film “Midnight in Paris”.
And though your part was small and your character pure comic relief, you did good buddy and 2012 is looking up! And now you are starring in “Detachment”, which looks like it will be the film to redeem your career. This movie looks so good that I’m going to let the fact I saw you in a razor commercial while at the gym slide. Just some words of advice:
DON’T PULL A NICK CAGE.
Please don’t accept any and every role that falls into your lap! You are too good for that. Nick Cage does that and no one, I repeat, NO ONE, wants to be him. So far you are following his pattern: first you win an academy award and then you go buku crazy and add 60 films to your resume. Not cool.
I’m only telling you this out of concern for your well being… and for mine. I can’t handle watching you spiral out of control! I only have enough hatred in my heart for one actor and Nick Cage has all of it. I refuse to share.
A loyal and concerned fan | <urn:uuid:49f39add-2480-4670-a360-0d65f8b5cb54> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://batirwego.com/2012/01/31/dear-adrien-brody/ | 2019-11-22T13:59:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496671260.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20191122115908-20191122143908-00037.warc.gz | en | 0.97754 | 712 | [

The producers behind the popular TV series 'Downton Abbey' have announced the upcoming sixth season will be the show's last.
FOX News Radio's Gurnal Scott has the story:
("Downton Abbey" Theme)
Each episode this rather regal music welcomes us to 'Downton Abbey', but not for much longer. The program's producers -- Carnival Films and ITV -- today announced the story of the Crawley family, and the people who serve them, is coming to an end.
The show, through its five seasons on the air, has more than two million likes on Facebook, nearly half a million Twitter followers and 11 Emmys.
But loyal legions are wondering what they will do without their guilty pleasure. The final season will start showing this winter in America.

Progressives & Modern Feminists Don’t Want You To Know these Heroic Women
By KrisAnne Hall, JD
Many who would rewrite history, would have us to believe the women during the revolution were oppressed subservient wives of overbearing, misogynistic husbands who dictated policy in the home. Nothing could be further from the truth. The founding women of our nation carried themselves with dignity and strength; believing with their hearts and souls the value of Liberty was worthy of their families’ sacrifice. These were women of principle, of courage, and of great resolve, willing to sacrifice all so that their children could be free.
Many will recognize the men for their contributions, but true history will reveal that the wives of these men were just as important to the battle for freedom. We all have heard the jest that “if momma isn’t happy, then nobody’s happy.” That is not something that is said just because it’s funny. So why would we think that human nature was any different in 1774? The women of our founding nation were just as involved as the men, and often times bolder in their assertions.
When Parliament and King George began attempting to recoup the money spent during the French and Indian wars by imposing unreasonable taxes absent any representation for the people of the colonies, outrage was the response. Our founding families relied on the goods imported from England to conduct their everyday lives. The taxes imposed upon these goods and many others were seen as a form of slavery and oppression. When petition after petition to the Parliament and the King were ignored, more drastic measures were required. George Washington asserted that a boycott of English goods may be a more effective way of getting the government’s attention.
Abigail Adams and Mercy Otis Warren
To stir patriotic sentiment even hotter, patriotic newspapers offered suggestions about colonial substitutes for imported teas, including sassafras, raspberry and mint. In support of these protests countless women gathered in private homes for spinning parties or participated in public spinning contests. Two women, whose names should be recognized, were Abigail Adams and her historian friend, Mercy Otis Warren. These were women of position, with husbands of reputation, yet they shunned tea and proudly wore homespun garments in lieu of British finery.
James Warren was the president of the Massachusetts Provisional Congress and member of the Sons of Liberty, but it was his wife, Mercy Otis Warren, whose patriotic efforts encouraged the war efforts. Mercy was the first American woman playwright and was a prolific author of anti-British propaganda plays. She was the first American woman history and wrote a three volume history of the American Revolution, “The Rise, Progress, and Termination of the American Revolution.” Contrary to today’s history books and the accounts of people like Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Mercy was very involved in politics and was the first American woman political advisor. She advised politicians, generals, and presidents. Mercy even had the audacity to print her disapproval of the Constitution as it was written, absent the Bill of Rights. Mercy was a staunch anti-federalist who believed the Constitution trusted the federal government with too much power and publicly and boldly demanded the addition of the Bill of Rights. Her friend, Abigail Adams, said in 1773 that Mercy was “a sincere lover of [her] country” It was said that Mercy was so grieved by Great Britain’s actions that she felt her nation to be “oppressed and insulted”.
Mercy Otis Warren was a vocal contributor to the independent efforts of the colonies and great pen pal to John Adams. John Adams often took great comfort from the words and advice of Mercy. In one letter, Mercy voices the sentiment of the American people.
“America stands armed with resolution and virtue; but she still recoils at the idea of drawing the sword against the nation from whence she derived her origin. Yet Britain, like an unnatural parent, is ready to plunge her dagger into the bosom of her affectionate offspring. But may we not yet hope for more lenient measures!”
Hannah Winthrop, wife of Dr. Winthrop, describes Mercy in January 1773 as “That noble patriotic spirit which sparkles must warm the heart that has the least sensibilities, especially must it invigorate a mind of a like fellow feeling for this once happy country. How often do we see people blind to their own interests precipitately maddening on to their own destruction!” As we look around today, I know that we can certainly empathize with Hannah’s frustrations.
Hannah Winthrop, Penelope Barker and Elizabeth King
Shortly after Samuel Adams and his men threw tea up and down the coast of America, a second Tea Party protest erupted within the hearts and minds of the women. A great revolutionary heroine by the name of Penelope Barker wrote a public statement in which she endorsed a boycott of tea and other British products, such as cloth. Ten months after the famous Boston Tea Party organized by men, Barker led a “Tea Party” on October 25, 1774, in the Edenton Home of Elizabeth King. She and fifty other women signed the protest statement. At the meeting, Barker said, “Maybe it has only been men who have protested the king up to now. That only means we women have taken too long to let our voices be heard. We are signing our names to a document, not hiding ourselves behind costumes like the men in Boston did at their tea party. The British will know who we are.” The women of this Tea Party signed a declaration that stated, “We, the aforesaid Ladys will not promote ye wear of any manufacturer from England until such time that all acts which tend to enslave our Native country shall be repealed.”
The amazing part of this public protest and notice sent to parliament and the King was that these were women whose husbands and fathers were men of reputation. Many of the men related to these women were English merchants. The fact these women signed their names to a document of protest showed their courage and their dedication to the principle that the Liberty of their children was more important than a paycheck or even their lives.
On Jan. 1st, 1774, Hannah Winthrop’s patriotic spirit cries out.
“Yonder, the destruction of the detestable weed, made so by cruel exaction, engages our attention. The virtuous and noble resolution of America’s sons, in defiance of threatened desolation and misery from arbitrary despots, demands our highest regard. May they yet be endowed with all that firmness necessary to-carry them through all their difficulties, till they come off conquerors. We hope to see good accounts of the tea cast away on the Cape. The union of the Colonies, the firm and sedate resolution of the people, is an omen for good unto us.”
These brave women of resolve did not simply support the efforts of the men fighting for Liberty; they themselves sacrificed everything for Liberty. They were outcasts to the Loyalists. They were called “harlots” and “loose women,” and were literally chased from their homes, sometimes as their homes burned to the ground. Elizabeth Adams, wife of Samuel Adams, had to hide in a small cottage far from the city, since her father was an English Merchant. In a letter to Samuel, she does not chastise him or berate him for his neglect of their family. Instead she reassures him that all is well at home and that he should concentrate on the battle at hand. She writes;
“I beg you would not give yourself any pain on our being so Near the Camp; the place I am in is so Situated, that if the Regulars should ever take Prospect Hill, which God forbid, I should be able to make an Escape, as I am Within a few stones casts of a Back Road, Which Leads to the Most Retired part of Newtown …. I beg you to Excuse the very poor Writing as My paper is Bad and my pen made with Scissars. I should be glad (My dear), if you shouldn’t come down soon, you would Write me Word Who to apply to for some Money, for I am low in Cash and every thing (sic) is very dear.” Feb 19 1775
Mary Bartlett wife of Dr. Bartlett, was as ardent in her patriotism as her husband. When their home lay in ruins and the family were driven to seek shelter and safety elsewhere, she fled to their little farm, which she managed from then on, leaving her husband free to devote himself almost entirely to the fight. In all her letters to her husband and her children, there is not one word of regret for his situation or pity for herself, left alone to bear the duties forced upon her by the tyranny of the British government. She had no complaints, only a spirit of loving, helpful sympathy for everything that her husband was going through.
These women believed their sacrifice was just as much a fight for Liberty as the lives lost on the battlefield. These were women of courage and resolve, willing to give everything for Liberty. Mercy Otis Warren wrote, they were “…ready to sacrifice their devoted lives to preserve inviolate, and to convey to their children the inherent rights of men, conferred on all by the God of nature, and the privileges of Englishmen claimed by Americans from the sacred sanction of compacts.”
Mercy was amazing at voicing the feelings and fears of these brave women in the battle for Liberty.
“I have my fears. Yet, notwithstanding the complicated difficulties that rise before us, there is no receding; and I should blush if in any instance the weak passions of my sex should damp the fortitude, the patriotism, and the manly resolution of yours. May nothing ever check that glorious spirit of freedom which inspires the patriot in the cabinet, and the hero in the field, with courage to maintain their righteous cause, and to endeavor to transmit the claim to posterity, even if they must seal the rich conveyance to their children with their own blood.”
There is a story told, about a British officer reporting to British General Cornwallis of the progress of the war with the colonies. As it is told, the British have become very frustrated and even discouraged by the opposition of the colonists. In relaying the affairs of the troops, the British officer says to Gen. Cornwallis, “Sir, we may destroy all the men in America, and we shall still have all we can do to defeat the women.” You see, by that time, the colonial women had nearly decimated the British linen industry with their boycott.
We could learn a great deal about what real women act and sound like from the words and deeds of these great heroines. And, as I am sure you can now see, the revisionists have been lying to us for many years. These women were not oppressed by their misogynistic men to the point of servitude. They were bold and brave women of resolve. They were dedicated to the cause of Liberty and the battle against tyranny. In her display of patriotism, Hannah Winthrop uttered the following battle cry,
“And be it known unto Britain, even American daughters are politicians and patriots, and will aid the good work with their female efforts.”
These women believed in their hearts and in their souls that without Liberty, life was not worth living. They supported their husbands and gave everything they could to ensure that their children would live free. As Mercy put it, “We will stand against tyranny today or our children will bow tomorrow.” How can we deny these great women their due? These are the women of Liberty and they are heroes worthy of recognition. Without them, America would not be the shining city on a hill and the last bastion of hope. We should honor what these brave women have done not only for America, but for the world.

Investigation launched into cause of Peregian bushfire
FIRE crews are mopping up after stopping a blaze in Peregian this morning that started in bush near a carpark north of Coolum and quickly spread north along beachfront vegetation driven by south easterly winds.
Acting Rural Fire Services area director Andrew Allan said an investigation would be launched on Thursday into the cause of the blaze that spread quickly.
Mr Allan said the blaze had raced northward before volunteer rural brigades, QFES and National Parks and Wildlife crews stopped it short of Lorikeet Drive in Peregian Beach.
The fire ripped through vegetation left intact after firefighters managed during last month's Peregian to contain it west of the David Low Way roundabout.
An estimated 100 firefighters quickly swung into action this morning including 15 to 20 rural brigades from Beerwah and District in the south to Tinbeerwah in the north and west to Belli Park.
"It's absolutely under control now," Mr Allan said.
"We're starting to release crews."
The McDermott Aviation firebombing helicopter was able to deliver up to 3000 litres of water at a time onto hot spots as firefighters created containment lines to bring the blaze under control.
McDermott Aviation executive Simon McDermott said the chopper drew water from the Coolum Aquapark, loading 3000 litres within 10 seconds through and electronically operated snorkel.
The pilot was directed from above by an air attack co-ordinator in another McDermott aircraft with the machine capable of delivering a single dump or multiple dumps through control doors.
Mr McDermott said the pilot had to be on the ball, adjusting power as the load lightened.
At full capacity the load equalled 3000kg in weight. | <urn:uuid:00eb92b9-5890-4d4d-84d9-28d87f58ea4b> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.sunshinecoastdaily.com.au/news/investigation-launched-into-cause-of-bushfires/3861075/ | 2019-11-12T21:09:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496665767.51/warc/CC-MAIN-20191112202920-20191112230920-00077.warc.gz | en | 0.954963 | 359 | [

Sometimes we choose unflattering looks just because they’re
trendy, but there’s no reason to keep doing it once you realize they don’t
really work for you and most other women. Some makeup trends have definitely outstayed their welcome and
it’s time to let them go.
Check out some of the worst makeup trends that need to die,
and reinvent your look for this fall with a more subtle approach. Pass on these
dated trends, and your makeup routine will be instantly improved without much
1. Glitter Overload
It doesn’t matter if Miley Cyrus is on board with the
glitter excess, you shouldn’t be. There is such a thing as too much glitter,
and that’s… anything but very little.
Avoid the glitter overload that you
might have seen on the runways, since it’s definitely not a wearable look for
most women. Keep it subtle if you want to make the most of it without looking
2. Obvious Contouring
Nose and cheek contouring have had their moment, in no small
part thanks to Kim Kardashian West, but even the reality TV star has moved on
to the next thing.
Strobing entails highlighting the high points of your face
for a beautiful and glowing finish. Noticeable contouring is one of the makeup
trends that need to die, and strobing is much easier, since you’ll just need a
single shade to create the look.
3. Oversized Lashes
Fake eyelashes can definitely enhance your look when you
take a subtle approach. However, the oversized “fan” look of big and obviously
fake lashes has been on its way out for quite some time. Opt for individual
lashes and only use a few towards the outer corner of your eyes to get a beautiful
effect that won’t scream “FAKE!”
4. Extreme Eyebrow
The time for abusing brow pencils has passed. Drawn-on
brows with sharp, geometric edges, are one of the makeup trends that need to
die. Forget about extreme eyebrow definition and opted for a softer approach
with a brow powder. The obvious ombré effect is also passé, but you can keep it
subtle with a slightly darker shade toward the outer corners of your eyebrows.
5. Highlighter Excess
Using too much highlighter can definitely turn on the shine
in the wrong way. Forget about white shimmery highlighter and use a more sophisticated shade in
moderation. From pink champagne for lighter complexions to rose gold for darker ones, your highlighter should give you a
radiant look, not turn your face into a reflective surface.
6. Overdrawn Lips
The Kylie Jenner challenge has come and gone, and the 18
year old has admitted to getting fillers, on top of using every other trick in the
book. However, one tips for bigger lips actually belongs among the makeup trends that need to
die. Stop trying to “enhance” your lips by overdrawing them with liner, you
won’t get plump lips, you’ll just get laughed at.
7. Dark and Opaque Smokey
Quit layering dark shadows on your eyes, because the jet
black look isn’t trendy anymore. Using three to four shades is one way of
taking the smokey eye to the next level, but you should also give it dimension
by blending more than you’re used to. When you use less color and keep
blending, you’ll end up with an almost translucent look that has a lot more
depth and style.
8. Using Multiple Shades
on Your Lips
Your lip liner should either be the color of your skin or
the color of your lipstick. There isn’t room for anything in between anymore.
Mismatching your liner and lip color or using more than one lip color for an ombré
effect is definitely one of the makeup trends that need to die.
9. Brightly Colored
Stop trying to change the color of your eyes, and quit
choosing obvious, unnatural shades. Instead of trying to hide your natural
color under an electric shade, focus on letting your makeup highlight and
enhance your eye color.
10. Super Glossy Lips
A small touch of gloss at the center of your lips can give a
beautiful effect, but extreme all-over shine is one of the makeup trends that
need to die. You should continue to choose moisturizing lipsticks with creamy
textures, but avoid the strong full gloss look paired with a shade that’s | <urn:uuid:00ccd812-4b25-43cb-9db4-cb9a02335435> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://fashiontray.com/10-makeup-trends-that-need-to-die/ | 2019-11-14T08:43:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496668334.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20191114081021-20191114105021-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.921433 | 999 | [

The Government of Canada is committed to championing gender equality and to taking action to ensure that women and girls can succeed in Canada and around the world. Canada also places great value on building and nurturing relationships with partners in the Americas. To that end, yesterday, at the 38th Assembly of Delegates of the Inter-American Commission of Women (CIM) of the Organization of American States (OAS) in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Canada was pleased to have been elected as one of three Vice Presidents of the CIM Executive Committee.
The CIM’s work primarily focuses on preventing and addressing gender-based violence and on supporting the efforts of Member States to uphold the human rights of women. Canada’s Vice Presidency presents an opportunity to work with members of the CIM Executive Committee to help influence and promote a more comprehensive approach to advancing gender equality and women’s leadership in the hemisphere, strengthen the CIM Secretariat, and encourage gender mainstreaming across the OAS. This marks the first time since 2003-2004 that Canada has served in this position.
The full CIM Executive Committee will consist of:
- President: Dominican Republic;
- Vice President (3 positions): Canada, Panama and Colombia; and
- Committee Members: Costa Rica, Mexico, Suriname, Peru and Ecuador.
In a few weeks Canada will host the Women Deliver 2019 Conference, the world’s largest conference on the health, rights and well-being of women and girls. The discussions taking place with leadership from across the Americas will help build momentum to advance gender equality across the hemisphere, and ultimately around the world before and after the conference.
“As a global champion of gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, Canada is always ready to work with its global partners to ensure that all people – regardless of gender – can reach their full potential. As a member of the Executive Committee of the Inter-American Commission of Women of the Organization of American States, we will now have a stronger role in protecting and promoting the rights of women and girls across the hemisphere. Canada is grateful for this opportunity to serve in this important position, and we look forward to working with member states to advance gender equality throughout the Americas.”
The Honourable Maryam Monsef, P.C., M.P.
Minister of International Development and Minister for Women and Gender Equality
Founded in 1948, the OAS is the oldest regional organization in the world and the premier multilateral organization of the Americas. It seeks to achieve among its member states an order of peace and justice, promote their solidarity, strengthen their collaboration and defend their sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence.
After 28 years as an observer, Canada became a member of the OAS on January 8, 1990.
Established in 1928, CIM was the first inter-governmental agency established to ensure recognition of women’s human rights.
Canada will serve a three-year term as Vice President on the CIM Executive Committee from 2019 to 2022.
From June 3 to 6, 2019, Canada will host the Women Deliver 2019 Conference in Vancouver, British Columbia. Held every three years, it is the world’s largest gathering on gender equality and the health, rights and well-being of women and girls.
The conference is part of a global movement to promote gender equality worldwide and give voice to a broad spectrum of people, including Indigenous peoples, youth and those living in conflict and crisis settings. It will bring together more than 7,000 individuals-world leaders, influencers, advocates, academics, activists, youth and journalists-from more than 160 countries, with an additional 100,000 people joining virtually. | <urn:uuid:96c05272-a748-4970-889b-295979f5f022> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.miragenews.com/canada-elected-to-executive-committee-of-inter-american-commission-of-women/ | 2019-11-14T09:06:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496668334.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20191114081021-20191114105021-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.951068 | 757 | [

After a conversation with a friend last night this post began to percolate in my mind. The more I think about what exactly it is we do when we look at Richard Armitage, the more I come to believe that there are primarily two schools of thought:
Objectification versus Appreciation
Objectify: to treat as an object or cause to have objective reality.
There are those who believe that when we look at fan videos or photographs of Richard, we are objectifying him by reducing him to a two dimensional being. That by looking at him in a context that doesn’t include his acting or his personality, we are somehow dehumanizing him.
On the other hand we have those who see what we do as appreciating his beauty.
a: to grasp the nature, worth, quality, or significance of<appreciate the difference between right and wrong>
b: to value or admire highly <appreciates our work>
c: to judge with heightened perception or understanding : be fully aware of <must see it to appreciate it>
d: to recognize with gratitude <certainly appreciates your kindness>
As with most things, I don’t think this issue is black and white. There is probably a spectrum between the two categories. However, I tend to believe that most fans fall into the “appreciation” category.
For instance, when we look at a photo, gif or even when we take extra notice during a scene in which Mr. Armitage takes off his shirt, I would say that we are in fact grasping the nature, quality and significance of all of the hard work it took on his part to get his body into such shape.
When something about a particular image grabs hold of our attention, is it not because we in some way highly admire the beauty of it?
In particular I like the third definition of appreciate, along with it’s example…”must see it to believe it.” I would relate this to the audiobooks that Richard Armitage has read. Numerous times I’ve seen where fans have said that they would love to see Richard play Lord Damerel in Venetia. The ability to watch and see him as the character would indeed heighten the experience.
And the last definition…”to recognize with gratitude.” I would argue that most of us are in fact grateful for the beauty of Mr. Armitage. Sometimes when I’ve had a bad day, just looking at a picture of him smiling lightens my spirits. It isn’t just the image itself that causes me to smile though, it is the fact that when that particular picture was taken, there was something going on that caused him to smile.
For myself, I find, especially after looking at my examples, that I rarely just look at images of Richard without some other thought besides, “ooh pretty,” and I would imagine that the same is true for most people.
Ultimately, I think the perspective one has is a matter of worldview. Those who look upon what we do as objectification probably hold a worldview in which admiring physical beauty is something shameful, something for which they should feel guilt and remorse. When such people speak in absolutes, I find it frustrating, as though they are trying to force their worldview onto the rest of us. However, when I’m able to step away from the frustration, I find that it makes me sad–sad that instead of being able to appreciate beauty, they take something that should be good and instead turn it into something dirty, something objectionable. It seems a pitiable way to live.

Exclusive: IFS wrong on FFA deficit, says leading tax adviser
A report by the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) which predicted SNP plans for full fiscal economy for Scotland would widen the country’s fiscal gap has been criticised by tax researcher and chartered accountant Richard Murphy.
Writing for Holyrood, Murphy accused the report’s author of “poverty aspiration” by assuming removal of a funding deficit should be the highest priority of a government.
“Only an economist specialising in tax could think that there are politicians in Scotland who aspire to secure full fiscal autonomy for the country with the sole aim of becoming a nation of paranoid bookkeepers,” he writes.
Murphy accuses the author and other critics of the policy of ignoring a section of the SNP manifesto which refers to innovative finance mechanisms. “It is my belief that they are referring to green infrastructure quantitative easing,” he says, indicating the SNP could use potential post-election bargaining power to push for the printing of new money to pay for investments.
If the SNP pursued an agenda of green investment quantitative easing, Murphy argues, “the rest of the UK will be in their debt if they do, but only metaphorically, because the miracle of quantitative easing is that at the end of the day there is no debt at all.”
Murphy also argues Scotland’s potential for growth has been undersold. “Right now Scotland feels like a company where a management buy out is overdue to release the latent energy and talent within its economy that is simply screaming for the opportunity to put its economic ideas into practice,” he says.
Richard Murphy is an adviser to the Tax Justice Network and the TUC on taxation and economic issues, as well as a number of political parties. He is also the director of Tax Research LLP, and spoke at the annual Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (COSLA) conference in March. He has been outspoken on the ability of economists to be politically objective. | <urn:uuid:c27ae78c-205f-45cb-989a-4b120ad9196c> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.holyrood.com/news/view,exclusive-ifs-wrong-on-ffa-deficit-says-leading-tax-adviser_11451.htm | 2019-11-15T21:50:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496668712.57/warc/CC-MAIN-20191115195132-20191115223132-00397.warc.gz | en | 0.963668 | 413 | [

CASA Deep Dive: Legislative Priorities – Healthcare Needs of Children & Youth in Foster Care
To keep you informed and inspired during the 86th Legislative Session, Texas CASA is taking the next few months to dive in to some of our key legislative priorities. Read more about our legislative priorities and our work leading up to, and during, the session.
TEXAS CASA LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES
- Support efforts to develop better services and supports for children, parents and families dealing with substance use and abuse or mental health issues.
- Improve services and supports for older and transitioning foster youth.
Children and youth in foster care face enormous challenges; often including lack of family support, educational deficits, inadequate or insufficient living arrangements, high medical and mental healthcare needs and lack of health insurance. Fortunately, the 86th Legislature is expected to take a broader look at how Texas can address gaps in behavioral health services this session. Given this focus, Texas CASA is excited to be working to address the healthcare needs of children in foster care this session, including those who exit foster care by being adopted or by aging out.
What are some of the gaps in services when it comes to addressing the healthcare needs of children in foster care?
Youth Currently in Foster Care
Like all children in foster care, adolescent youth who are diagnosed with a mental illness or substance use disorder are entitled to all medically necessary services covered by Medicaid. However, the Medicaid state plan excludes youth under the age of 21 from being eligible for peer support services. Medicaid coverage for peer support is currently authorized for adults, and is evidence-based, trauma-informed and cost-effective. Peer support for youth can play an important role in the recovery process, in addition to providing a sense of community.
Youth Who Age Out or Are Adopted
Children and youth in foster care often experience several placements, which can lead to inconsistent and disjointed medical and behavioral healthcare. This inconsistency also affects children who are adopted out of the foster care system, who may lose access to their medical providers while in state custody because the Medicaid provider, STAR Health, terminates a child’s health coverage on the last day of the month they were adopted. This forces adoptive parents to seek medical and behavioral healthcare through another insurance provider. It is currently not an option for adoptive parents to maintain enrollment for their adopted children in STAR Health in order to ensure that their children are able to continue utilizing the same providers and services they had before they were adopted. Having consistency in post-adopt healthcare enables qualified health providers to continue building on the service plan for the child with the help and input of adoptive parents. What’s more, providers in the STAR Health network are trauma-informed and certified to meet the specialized needs of children in foster care. This is especially important for children with mental illness who have been receiving treatment from STAR Health network providers.
Youth who age out of the foster care system also face the possibility of having inconsistent and disjointed medical and behavioral healthcare. Under federal law, youth who age out of the foster care system can receive Medicaid coverage up to age 26 through the Former Foster Care Children (FFCC) program. Texas currently provides these young adults with healthcare coverage by automatically enrolling them when they leave care. However, many young people experience a disruption in their coverage because they have difficulty annually renewing their benefits. The increasing prevalence of mental illness among this population further substantiates the need to keep these young adults insured to access critical treatment and services.
What are Texas CASA’s recommendations?
- Direct the Health and Human Services Commission to include peer support services to adolescent youth in foster care as a covered Medicaid benefit.
- Support adoptive parents and their children by adding STAR Health to the list of healthcare options that adoptive parents can choose from for their adopted children, giving these parents more choice and control over the medical and behavioral healthcare that their children receive.
- Direct the Health and Human Services Commission to create a simple re-determination or auto-renewal process to maintain health coverage for youth who age out of foster care.
- Require the Health and Human Services Commission to assume all youth who age out of foster care are Texas residents unless it is determined they are receiving benefits in another state.
Failure to provide coverage to youth formerly in foster care may actually cost more, particularly if these young people delay seeking needed medical care and find themselves in emergency rooms. Eliminating these major barriers, for both families of adopted children and youth formerly in care, would be sound investments not only in the well-being of these young people but also in the future of Texas.

Goalkeeper on his great double save
James Shea said that hard work on the training pitch was behind his fantastic double save that kept Wimbledon in the FA Cup on Saturday.
The 23-year-old goalkeeper was hailed as “outstanding” after the 1-1 draw at York City by manager Neal Ardley. But Shea was quick to highlight the contribution of goalkeeper coach Ashley Bayes for the standard of his coaching sessions since he joined the Dons.
Speaking to Rob Cornell during an interview for Dons Player, Shea (pictured above) said: “It’s a lot down to ‘Bayzo’ because I worked really hard with him during pre-season and throughout this campaign. We work on stuff like that every day in training and thankfully it’s paid off.
“It all happened so quickly. I just remember their player heading it and I managed to save it. Then the rebound hit my leg and the ball went up in the air. I was just hoping that it would go over the bar, but I don’t know what happened after that.”
Shea felt that Wimbledon deserved to stay in the FA Cup on Saturday and he believes his side has a good chance in the replay.
“I felt that we were comfortable, apart from that moment when I had to make those saves,” added Shea. “We could have gone on and won it, but we will take a replay in the end. I will fancy our chances at home. We will have to go for it to make progress and we will all have to do our jobs to get into the next round.”
The FA Cup Draw will be live on BBC Two tonight from 7.00 pm. | <urn:uuid:c20986f3-b0b2-4c07-a199-9ae91e749c4e> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.afcwimbledon.co.uk/news/2014/november/shea-hard-work-paid-off/ | 2019-11-18T01:54:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496669422.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20191118002911-20191118030911-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.990056 | 361 | [

Have you ever noticed how God is not in a hurry? For example, I would have loved to have this blog up and running months ago but God saw fit for me to be working on other important things. I have definitely learned to commit my day, my life to the one that created it. I have also learned that when I do this there is much less struggle. What God is calling for is full surrender. A surrender of those things we hold dear, close to our heart, a surrender of our desires. The desires that are heart wrenching at times, those desires that seem to be in everyone else’s grasps but yours. Those desires that you know God put in your heart so why? why can’t you have them? Haven’t I been a good child Lord? Haven’t I served you well?
Let’s go deeper than a blog. You and I know we are talking about deeper subjects. In my own life, one of those desires would be a child. Maybe for you it is the same. Maybe for you it is a husband, A relationship to be restored, your prodigal to return home, a child to know Christ and serve Him, the home you always dreamed of, leaving your job to move into ministry, the perfect marriage (by the way there is not one!), or maybe its just to be free, healed from some pain or bondage in your life.
Friends, let me encourage you. God moves in His perfect timing not ours. Sit on this a moment, God is not blessing you now in your timing because He is waiting to bless you instead with His perfect timing with His very BEST! He is never late, but He is sometimes not early either. He is sometimes a God of the midnight hour, God of the early morning. He sometimes waits until the last second so He may be glorified. Remember God is not concerned with time “Nevertheless, do not let this one fact escape you, beloved, that with the Lord one day is a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.”2 Peter 3:8 What He is concerned about is our Faith and Trust in Him. He will stand on His promises. He put those desires in your heart and He will fulfill them in His timing!
Sometimes our self-will and spirit of independence must be broken so God is free to work His will in our lives and circumstances. I believe He wants to be sure that we are not going to take matters into our own hands and do something out of His perfect timing. This is my story. In my journey of infertility and waiting for my blessing, I have had much advice in how I should move forward. However, I want to know my blessing has come from Him alone so the only advice I am taking is from my Lord. He has told me “Once you have done the will of the Father, then you will receive the promise.” Hebrews 10:36 I believe this is what He would have me say to you today!
While you and I are waiting for our mountain to be moved, we must know God is doing a good work in us and He wants us to look around for others we could bless, comfort, serve. He wants us to be content in the now because during the now is when He does his finest work. In the now is when we are changed and so are others! So I encourage you to Pray, seek, and you will find. Pray and He will tell you things you do not know. Jeremiah 33:3 Pray, and you will receive!
I hope you will enjoy this new space provided for you to visit and be encouraged. My prayer is that you and I would become friends, that you would be blessed as I become transparent and share my heart. I was overwhelmed at the responses on the old blog site coming in from all over the world and was saddened when we had to change directions and put my readers on hold. So I am praying God will begin to pull you all back in because I know He has something specifically to say to YOU! | <urn:uuid:dad199b4-b7c2-4c48-9fb5-0fefbb1a9eef> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://jeanniescottsmith.com/2014/02/17/in-his-time-3/ | 2019-11-21T02:38:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670729.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20191121023525-20191121051525-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.979203 | 839 | [

You’ve probably seen headlines about the Equifax security breach. These days hacks seem to occur more often, which is very concerning. That is knowing the best alternatives to Equifax and being informed is key. Hackers got a hold of personal information including, but not limited to, Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, and birth dates. Here are the statistics.
- 209,000 U.S. customers had their credit cards compromised
- 182,000 customers in the U.S. had “personal identifying” data leaked
- Up to 143 million people impacted
Equifax discovered the hack on July 29th; however, the public learned about it on September 7th. In addition to being one of the main credit agencies, it sells customers credit monitoring and fraud prevention services. Many people, probably including you, are looking for a different provider due to the slow disclosure of the hack and ongoing questions about Equifax’s cybersecurity.
Credit Report, Credit Score, and Other Terms
There are certain terms you need to know to accurately compare services. A credit report provides a detailed history on your credit accounts. A credit score is a single number that indicates how much of a risk it is to lend to you. If you have a high credit score, say 780, you are low risk.
You can freeze your credit. This action means you restrict access to your credit report. You must contact the three main credit reporting agencies, and they charge a fee for this service.
By law, credit reporting companies must give you a free credit report annually. However, you might want more in-depth services to monitor your credit and protect against identity theft. There are numerous alternatives to Equifax.
Alternatives for You
There are a number of services that provide credit monitoring and fraud detection assistance. Some services are more comprehensive, but you pay more for wide-ranging monitoring. Here are alternatives to help you monitor your key credit information.
- Experian- Experian is one of the big three credit bureaus and a major competitor of Equifax. They offer a credit monitoring service called Experian CreditWorks Premium. This product monitors your credit reports at all of the three major credit agencies.
The introductory rate is $4.99 for the first month; the cost increases to $24.99 per month. You get monthly updates on your FICO score and credit reports, a credit lock feature, and $1 million in identity theft insurance. You also get a fraud resolution agent to help you resolve any identity issues.
- TransUnion- TransUnion is the last of the three major credit bureaus that aggregate consumers’ financial information and analyze it to determine people’s creditworthiness. TransUnion offers a credit monitoring app that alerts you to reports of new accounts opened in your name and negative information to your account.
TransUnion’s monitoring program costs $19.95 per month. It comes with a feature that allows you to freeze your TransUnion and Equifax credit reports. You also get access to their Credit Score Simulator so you can see how actions such as opening a new account impact your credit score and plan accordingly.
- Identity Guard- Identity Guard provides streamlined services. They send alerts to you (text, email, or phone) there are changes to your credit file. Their services also include monitoring all three credit bureaus and giving you quarterly credit report and score updates.
Identity Guard advertises that you can try its services free for one month and then pay a $19.95 per month subscription fee. They also offer Social Security number monitoring, computer protection software, keystroke encryption software, and a public record report. They offer $1 million in ID theft insurance.
- LifeLock- LifeLock offers three plans, Standard, Advantage, and Ultimate Plus to help you monitor your credit and protect against identity theft. These cost $9.99/month, $19.99/month, and $29.99/month respectively. The Standard and Advantage plans offer credit monitoring from one bureau while the Ultimate Plus offers three bureau monitoring. Only the Ultimate Plus monthly credit score tracking and that is just from Equifax.
LifeLock’s biggest services are around identity theft protection. All plans alert you if they find credit applications submitted in your name, your personal information on dark web sites, and requests to change your address. They also provide protection packages that help reimburse you for stolen funds and lawyers and experts.
- IdentityForce-IdentityForce provides a wide range of monitoring services. Its UltraSecure+Credit product monitors your information from all three credit bureaus. You also get access to your credit scores and your credit reports from Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax once a quarter. It also has a monthly credit score tracker and credit score simulator features.
IdentityForce also provides a change of address, court records, and even Pay Day Loan monitoring services. Their alerts include bank account activity, credit card use, and even a junk mail opt-out. IdentityForce offers ID Theft Insurance of $1 million. This comprehensive service costs $19.95/month or $199.50 per year.
- PrivacyGuard- PrivacyGuard offers two products that help you protect your credit. The first one is Credit Protection which costs $19.99/month. It has daily credit monitoring, credit reports and credit scores from the three big bureaus, a credit score simulator, and monthly credit score tracking. It provides ID fraud resolution help, but no other identity theft services.
The second package, Total Protection, costs $24.99 per month and combines Credit Protection’s services with identity theft monitoring and recovery services. The features include but are not limited to, public records monitoring, Social Security number tracking, and $1 million in ID theft insurance. PrivacyGuard advertises that Total Protection even helps reduce pre-approved credit card offers.
- Credit Sesame- Credit Sesame is a personal finance website that offers people their credit score and a basic credit monitoring service for free. It also has a mobile app. Credit Sesame received strong reviews on com.
The credit score is based on your credit report from TransUnion. You don’t get your FICO score free. If you want more extensive services, there are packages that monitor all three credit bureaus.
- Credit Karma- When you become a member, you get free monitoring of your TransUnion credit report. Credit Karma also advertises that you get free credit scores and reports through TransUnion and Equifax. They also have personal finance education features.
Credit Karma makes money when you get a financial product such as a credit card, loan, or auto loan from its site. Lenders pay Credit Karma, not you. The downside is that the services are far more limited than on other sites.
Credit Services for Business Owners
If you’re a small business owner, you might want to find an alternative to Equifax too. For instance, the company Rapid Credit Reports provides landlords credit reports on prospective tenants. It also is a well-respected provider of credit scores and financial reporting services to companies such as accounting practices, law firms, and auto dealers.
Nav Business Credit Reports has services that help you monitor your business and personal credit. Their free plan allows you to access your personal credit score from one bureau and your business letter grade from two bureaus. Their paid plans offer personal credit reports and business reports from multiple bureaus, email alerts, and $1 million in identity theft protection.
Your Legal Rights, Protecting Yourself
If you request it, each of the three main credit reporting bureaus must give you a free copy of your credit report once a year. The site annualcreditreport.com handles your requests. Federal law authorizes this site.
Annualcreditreport.com provides you with detailed information about credit scores and what constitutes identity theft. It also describes what a credit freeze is in case you believe you were the victim of a data breach. The point of a credit freeze is to keep identity thieves from opening new accounts or taking out insurance policies in your name. You can still access your free annual credit report, and your credit score does not take a hit. Remember, you must lift the freeze if you need to apply for credit such as a new auto loan or if you apply for a job where the company performs a credit check.
When These Services Are Worth It
It’s important that you have a strong, accurate credit history. Incorrect information can result in you being turned down for a loan or paying more in interest than is really necessary. These monitoring services help you see what is happening to on your credit report and to your credit score.
These services are helpful to a wide range of people. If you’re planning on buying a house, a credit report monitoring service allows you to see your credit building so you gain insights into when you might get the best rate.

The divide between traditional and mobile devices that has long existed in enterprise endpoint security is quickly fading. CISOs and their teams are increasingly seeing the importance of securing mobile devices, in addition to traditional workstations. Employees often read their emails for the first time on their phones and conduct a fair share of business transactions on them. Mobile devices are also increasingly used for multi-factor authentication (MFA) into sensitive corporate systems. In fact, mobile endpoints now outnumber traditional endpoints in the workplace. It only makes sense, then, to extend endpoint security to mobile as well.
While sophisticated security teams realize they must protect data consistently across all of today’s operating systems and endpoints, I argue this is no longer enough. We need to be ready to protect both today’s – and tomorrow’s – operating systems.
Few organizations are ready for a new breed of “modern” OSs that is starting to run on traditional workstations. “Modern” is no longer just mobile, but also traditional OSs that are becoming always-connected, more locked-down, and enablers for constant access to personal and corporate data in the cloud through available networks.
Symantec is the only vendor that protects all major operating systems – traditional and modern – in one solution. In addition to providing comprehensive protection on popular operating systems like Windows, macOS and Linux, Symantec Endpoint Security addresses the growing trend of modern OSs such as Windows 10 in S mode, Windows on ARM, iOS and Android, and delivers advanced protection capabilities to combat the types of threats that target these newer OSs. While modern OSs are designed to be “secure by default,” as we learned with mobile, even a locked-down OS can be exploited.
When Traditional Becomes Modern
As business users expect constant connectivity and are always on the move, traditional OSs are evolving to accommodate these behaviors. The newer Windows and macOS versions are borrowing a page from mobile OSs. Windows on Arm is “always on, always connected,” featuring integrated LTE Advanced connectivity. Out-of-the-box connectivity means certain services and apps, like email clients, continue syncing in the background (just as on mobile devices), positioning Windows on Arm as an appealing platform to business users. There is already a wave of these new Arm-based PCs/devices coming from Microsoft, Lenovo, Samsung, and others. Microsoft recently announced two new Surface devices: Surface Pro X and Surface Neo, both of which are running Windows on Arm.
Additionally, Microsoft is securing workstations running Windows 10 in S mode much the same way iOS and Android devices are secured. In S mode, applications that users install from the Microsoft Store are sandboxed (like app sandboxing on mobile). These user-installed apps run in their own user partition so they can’t access system files, or data and files from other applications. This minimizes the risk of data breaches, as any malicious code that is downloaded onto the PC will be contained, unable to affect the OS and other apps and files.
For all the benefits that constant connectivity brings, it can be a double-edged sword.
As these types of devices become more common and connected computing becomes a business necessity, security teams need to be prepared to protect new modern OSs. While locked-down systems are supposed to be more secure, we’ve seen that OSs like iOS and Android are susceptible to their own set of threats, including OS vulnerabilities, network-based attacks, and malicious and vulnerable apps.
Furthermore, for all the benefits that constant connectivity brings, it can be a double-edged sword. Always-connected devices are always reachable; even when you hit the power button, the device is still connected to a network and still active. These devices are also more vulnerable to network threats as they connect more to public Wi-Fis. Any poorly-secured device that has been compromised and then accesses a corporate resource or network serves as a potential avenue of attack. These risk factors make modern OSs an attractive, high-value target for hackers.
Endpoint Security Protection for Modern Operating Systems
Until recently, the thinking in enterprise was that measures for securing traditional endpoints needed to extend to mobile devices. Today, it is clear the model has turned: organizations will need to extend mobile endpoint protection techniques to traditional endpoints as their OSs become more connected and more locked-down. To be successful in the future, organizations need to have a strong modern security foundation.
The good news is that Symantec Endpoint Security is already doing this. We’ve been leading the way in protecting modern OSs for years, through our robust mobile threat defense solution. We’ve borrowed concepts like network integrity for securing iOS and Android devices and applied them to Windows 10 devices, providing active and automatic protection from modern threats. The Endpoint Security app is built on Microsoft’s Universal Windows Platform (UWP), meaning it can be distributed through the Microsoft Store and can run on Windows 10, Windows 10 in S-Mode and Windows on Arm devices.
Essentially, we’re able to deliver out-of-the-box, automatic detection and protection against device and network-based threats, without requiring drivers and kernel extensions to run natively on modern devices. This includes protection against malicious apps and profiles, risky Wi-Fi and carrier networks (evil twin hotspots, fake corporate hotspots, etc.) and exploits of unpatched app and OS vulnerabilities. With our network integrity feature, any time the network state changes – let’s say you disconnect from one network and connect to another – Endpoint Security automatically performs tests on that network, similar to how our mobile security agent validates networks that your mobile devices connect to. If a threat is detected, we immediately activate protection actions such as VPN tunneling or blocking access to sensitive corporate resources.
Let’s look at a specific example of Endpoint Security protection on mobile devices. An employee connects to a fake corporate hotspot at their organization’s campus, believing it’s the real corporate network. There is a man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacker on the network who can see all of the employee’s traffic, including his credentials as he attempts to authenticate to a corporate resource. Mobile users are generally socially engineered into installing a root certificate authority (CA) on their device to allow for seamless decryption of their traffic. On an Endpoint Security-protected device, a VPN tunnel would automatically be activated upon detection of the threat to block the MiTM attacker. This allows the employee to continue using their device seamlessly while protected from the network threat. Endpoint Security can also detect root CAs on both iOS and Android.
Without these automatic detections and protections, sensitive corporate data could end up in the attacker’s hands. In addition, if the organization was relying on a third-party service for enforcement, the attacker would have been able to block it, underscoring the need for on-device protection.
If a VPN tunnel cannot be established, our Sensitive Resource Protection (SRP) can be activated as a fallback layer of protection. Admins can define company resources they want to protect, such as an email or AD domain, in the security policy, and in the case of a network attack, these resources will be isolated on the device, safe from exploitation by malicious actors.
Beyond network threats, Endpoint Security provides protection against app, OS-level, and network content exploits, across all OSs. In terms of protection at the app level, we perform app scanning and analysis on the public app stores, and can block malware or terminate malicious processes before they leak sensitive data. Windows 10 in S-mode may prohibit non-Microsoft Store apps in an attempt to make the OS more secure, but that doesn’t mean the Store is completely clean of risky apps. We’ve repeatedly found deceptive, potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) with risky behaviors and dodgy content built for Windows 10 and Windows 10 in S-mode.
Risky apps can also sneak their way into Apple systems – and we're leveraging our vast mobile app reputation database to stay one step ahead, even on the latest closed macOS versions. MacOS Catalina requires that all new software and apps be notarized. This means that Developer ID-signed software must undergo automatic scans and security checks to validate that it is not malware. The notarization service is intended to prevent the unauthorized use of trusted developer certificates to distribute software. But as one app developer points out, “it doesn't protect against malware authors simply paying $100 (perhaps with fraudulently obtained credit card numbers) to sign up for their own Apple Developer account and notarize their own software with their own Developer ID certificate and their own Apple ID.” This has actually happened here and here, and there have been cases where malicious code has gotten into apps without developers even being aware of it, via the supply chain method. At Endpoint Security, we have extensive experience detecting exploitation of Apple enterprise developer certificates on iOS and can detect these types of threats:
At the OS-level, Endpoint Security provides vulnerability management for all OS versions. For example, we can detect which endpoint doesn’t have a specific Microsoft patch installed. We also detect vulnerable app versions and can trigger patching and updating to non-vulnerable versions.
Windows, iOS, new OS? There’s an Endpoint Security Technology for That
Visibility is a critical component of any security product, especially for admins. But in modern, locked-down OSs, where other security products need access to elevated privileges to run agents properly – Endpoint Security’s UWP-based agent runs natively. If a risky network is detected, an event and alert are automatically raised in our Integrated Cyber Defense management (ICDm) cloud console with details about the detection.
It’s important to note that this visibility extends across ALL operating systems in an environment. If a threat is detected on any endpoint, events, alerts, and security incidents will appear in the ICDm console, giving security teams unprecedented insight into their entire threat exposure.
Our detections and protections are part of a single product stack that incorporates several different technologies working together under the hood. You don’t have to worry about going through multiple RFPs to acquire separate products, each with their own levels of protection, policies, enforcement, and management for each type of OS you want to protect. You get full coverage in one license, with single agent installation. Simply decide what devices you want to protect, and Endpoint Security provides the technology that best fits each one. That seamless integration and simplicity is hard to come by anywhere else.
The future is an Ever-Connected OS
Traditional and mobile OSs are converging. The result is modern OSs that run on traditional workstations but are designed to accommodate constant connectivity and cloud access, anytime, anywhere. These systems are different from the legacy code that is the traditional Windows and macOS we’ve been accustomed to. They are adapting to different user behaviors, device types and functionalities, bringing with them a host of benefits, but also security challenges. These changes require a new security model that can protect against increasingly-sophisticated modern threats. Symantec Endpoint Security is the only solution with the technology stack to protect these modern systems in addition to traditional OSs, with a single agent installation. Our robust protection, detection and response capabilities extend across all OSs and endpoints in your environment, ensuring they stay safe from all attack vectors. In view of the many changes OSs are undergoing, tech writer Navneet Alang recently proclaimed that “we’re losing control of our computers.” I’d argue, organizations that don’t properly protect modern OSs like mobile, will be losing control. Are you ready to protect your endpoints as this shift occurs? | <urn:uuid:e4d755ed-c5e1-4283-8aae-c365988c4ac5> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.symantec.com/blogs/product-insights/securing-oss-today-and-tomorrow | 2019-11-21T03:41:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496670729.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20191121023525-20191121051525-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.933263 | 2,472 | [
