Creating positive change doesn’t happen overnight. Just ask the seven Palo Alto residents who have been selected as recipients of this year’s Avenidas Lifetimes of Achievement awards for pouring their time and energy into projects designed to better the community.
Together, Ruth and George Chippendale, Dexter Dawes, Marion Mandell, Judy Sleeth and Carol and Terry Winograd have dedicated the equivalent of 312 years of public service to advocating for art in the classroom, providing nonprofits with financial expertise, caring for 20 foster children, supporting Palo Alto’s Sister City Organization, bringing Jewish and Muslim communities together and more. Their persistence and unwavering desire to change the status quo has made an impact not only here but across the globe.
The following stories shine a spotlight on how these individuals with ordinary beginnings went on to lead extraordinary lives.
Recently married and pondering job prospects across the country, George and Ruth Chippendale took a driving trip in 1957, stopping for interviews in Wichita, Denver, San Diego and Los Angeles before landing in Palo Alto, where they decided to plant their roots in the Duveneck/St. Francis neighborhood.
Palo Alto was like nothing the East Coast-bred pair had ever seen before, said George, who settled on an engineering job at Lockheed Missiles and Space.
There was space to roam, and a nice family house could be had for $21,500, Ruth added.
“Oh, it was wonderful,” she said.
George, who during his college years in Boston had learned to fly and bought his own small plane, flew it out to California.
By 1962, the Chippendales had three children, and Ruth had left her teaching career to raise them. It was also during this time that the couple became involved in the Christian Family Movement, which launched them into a lifelong commitment to social activism and giving back to the community that had impressed them so much that first day they arrived.
For nearly six decades, the couple has spent countless hours providing aid to parents of emotionally and mentally disabled children; offering emergency assistance through the St. Vincent de Paul Society; feeding the homeless; distributing food; working for peace and justice; taking in 20 foster children and adopting a developmentally delayed son (who died at the age of 21); collecting and distributing toys and clothing; and preparing layettes for needy new mothers.
In 2004, the Vatican awarded the couple the Cross Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice for their years of service. The following year, the couple received a prestigious Jefferson Award from the American Institute for Public Service. This month, the duo is receiving the Avenidas Lifetimes of Achievement Award for their service to Palo Alto.
Joining the Christian Family Movement was “a dramatic change in my life,” said George, who proudly called himself a “Boston Irish Catholic Democrat” but, until marrying Ruth, had considered weekly Mass mainly a place to snooze or daydream.
Ruth had come from a deeply religious family, with a sister who became a nun and a brother who became a priest.
“The church was nothing to me until I met this woman,” he said, explaining that she had shown him the English translations of the Latin prayer books that made the service more meaningful.
Through the Christian group’s Migrant Mission Program, George found himself teaching catechism to farm workers in Cupertino. He flew priests to Mexico and Central America for the Latin American Mission Program, and “that was a step up in motivation,” he said.
By the late ‘60s, George was piloting health care teams and patients back and forth to Central America to perform reconstructive surgeries on children with cleft palates through the Stanford University-based group Interplast (now Resurge International).
Ruth meanwhile began taking in babies through a foster program with Santa Clara County. Between 1966 and 1976 the family took in 20 babies, the last one of which they adopted and raised as their own.
“That was in the days when they didn’t have enough adoptive parents,” Ruth said. Most of the babies were newborns, coming straight from the hospital. The Chippendales kept a carriage, which they would wheel from room to room, and Ruth grew deeply attached to the babies.
These days, George has long since stopped flying his plane -- he no longer even drives -- but uses the telephone to continue his decades-long activism in East Palo Alto with the St. Vincent de Paul Society, coordinating emergency help to families and individuals in need with food, rent, utilities, clothing and medical prescriptions.
Until recently, George and Ruth helped prepare a meal every Monday at St. Francis of Assisi church in East Palo Alto for anybody who wanted to come in and eat. George also has helped recruit and secure scholarships for children to attend St. Elizabeth Seton School and Hidden Villa summer camp in Los Altos Hills.
Ruth, a regular at the 7:15 a.m. daily Mass at St. Thomas Aquinas, continues her 30-year involvement with Palo Alto’s Downtown Food Closet, as well as with the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom and Hotel de Zink, in which churches take turns providing hot meals and beds for the homeless.
She’s also become a Raging Granny, joining fellow grandmothers who dress up in hats and go into the streets to promote peace, justice and equality.
“I’d gone to so many rallies and so many demonstrations -- anti-war, pro-environment -- and I thought, ‘As long as I’m going to go to these rallies and demonstrations, I might as well have some fun with it,” she said.
Both Chippendales say the tightening housing market in East Palo Alto is making it harder than ever for low-income people trying to survive.
“Now, with the impact of people coming into East Palo Alto with places like Facebook and Google, no longer do you have that market technique of renting a room from the bulletin board at the laundromat,” George said. “Instead you go onto Craigslist and the room that used to be $600 is now $1,200.
Palo Alto resident Dexter Dawes tried retirement in 1996 -- but it didn’t last long. A few months after retiring, the former investment banker and his wife were welcomed home from their trip to India with a surprise voicemail asking Dawes to jump back into the business world. His youngest son’s friend wanted to start a software company, and he needed someone with proven financial expertise to guide him. Dawes, 60, was ready to take on this new challenging role. That was 20 years ago, and the Palo Alto resident still hasn’t quite retired.
Now in his 80s, Dawes has spent the bulk of his “retirement” years volunteering on numerous boards, commissions and oversight committees to provide financial guidance to local nonprofits. He has served on 17 different boards for corporations as well as organizations benefiting everyone from seniors and children to students and Palo Alto families, including the Palo Alto-Los Altos American Youth Soccer Organization, the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and Chorale, the Palo Alto High School Sports Boosters and the Bond Oversight Committee and the Audit and Finance Committee for the Foothill-De Anza Community College District.
This month, Dawes is receiving the Avenidas Lifetime of Achievement Award for his service.
Dawes said sitting around watching TV after leaving the corporate world was never an attractive option, so he decided to put his experience to use.
“I think my role is addressing problems,” said Dawes, whose behind-the-scenes input has helped keep numerous organizations financially sound, even during tough times.
Dawes, who served as chairman and vice chairman on Palo Alto’s Utilities Advisory Commission, developed a 10-year efficiency plan that enabled the city to weather the energy crisis of 2001 as well as volatile changes in the gas market, including the bankruptcy of energy supplier Enron Company.
The commission’s decision to reduce its power contract with Enron ultimately saved the city tens of millions of dollars, Dawes said.
As treasurer, chairman and board member of Palo Alto’s Channing House, he helped develop financial guidelines for the retirement community’s development and led what he described as “a battle” to settle more than 10 lawsuits over a construction project that was two years late and whose budget was significantly overrun. When the construction company sued for excess costs, Dawes was ready to shepherd a resolution. The case went into mediation.
After “driving hard with a mediator, who put a lot of pressure on the contractors,” Channing House settled on a favorable basis, he said. The settlement was finally agreed upon on Dawes’ last day as a board member in February 2016.
“All things considered, the fight was worth it for the community,” Dawes said.
Dawes attributes his success in the nonprofit sector to skills -- such as negotiating and good judgment -- he acquired during a long and storied career he launched at Ford Aerospace shortly after earning an MBA. By 1973, he had started his own firm that specialized in raising capital, mergers and Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs). During the 1980s, he took over the management of an investment fund and switched from raising capital to investing in private companies.
Looking back on the past 20 years, Dawes said nonprofit work can be just as challenging -- and rewarding -- as a paid job.
“Palo Alto is an amazing community with intelligent, active and well-heeled people. With these blessings come a fountainhead of ideas and approaches,” he said. “The long and short of it ... (is) it can be a stifling process in which it takes years to get a decision made and implemented.

It was during the 1940s at the height of World War II when 10-year-old Marion Mandell decided to join the war effort. She worked tirelessly to knit socks and mittens for overseas troops and to roll and sterilize bandages in the oven as part of a Girl Scout project for her troop in New Jersey.
The war eventually ended, but Mandell’s commitment to community service and the Girl Scouts of the USA never waned. Mandell, now 87, has spent the better part of eight decades inspiring generations of Girl Scouts and strengthening community programs that help those in need.
“Working with people is so terrific and rewarding,” said Mandell, who has an uncanny way of using skills she’s learned -- whether it be folk dancing or Spanish -- to help others.
This month, Mandell is receiving the Avenidas Lifetimes Achievement Award for her ongoing service to local Girl Scouts as well as her role in Palo Alto’s Sister City Organization, which she has supported for half a century.
Mandell, who started with the Girl Scouts as a Brownie in 1939 when cookies cost only 25 cents a box, credits her first troop leader for her lifelong commitment to volunteer work. Mandell said her leader was “a wonderful woman,” so she stuck with the organization and realized that maybe she, too, could have that impact on others.
She continued in the service organization as an assistant leader and in college became a summer camp counselor in upstate New York.
“I thoroughly enjoyed those summers,”said Mandell, who still calls herself a Girl Scout.
In 1958 -- the same year she, her husband and two young children “caught a 14-hour flight on a propeller plane” (before the use of modern passenger jets) to move 3,000 miles from New York to their new home in Palo Alto -- she became involved in the local Girl Scouts.
She went on to serve as a Girl Scout camp counselor, troop leader, camp director, trainer and organizer. She has directed three Camporees -- an outdoor skills competition with about 300 participants -- annually for 37 years for the Girl Scouts of Palo Alto and Santa Clara County. To this day, she is still involved in the event, which she calls her favorite Scouting activity.
Mandell said she believes the Girl Scouts’ enduring appeal is in large part due to the organization’s flexibility and willingness to remain relevant with the times.
“The Girl Scouts have (always) been in the forefront of modern events,” she told the Weekly when the Palo Alto Girl Scouts were celebrating their 90th anniversary in 2012.
The local Scouts can get badges in areas related to aerospace and architecture and even media savvy. In conjunction with NASA, they formed the first all-girls local robotics team, which now encompasses the entire Bay Area.
Mandell also has had a significant impact on Palo Alto’s Sister City program, serving as the primary organizer of the Neighbors Abroad cultural-exchange program between Palo Alto and Oaxaca, Mexico, each summer for more than 50 years.
Mandell said her interest in Neighbors Abroad began when her children began taking Spanish in school. Mandell said it seemed very possible that her family would be hosting an exchange student from Mexico, so she enrolled in every Spanish course that Foothill College had to offer and became fluent.
This prompted her to do more with her newly learned skill. She joined the board of directors for Neighbors Abroad in Palo Alto in 1963 and shortly after became the group’s vice president for Palo Alto’s sister city, Oaxaca.
City Council members have described Mandell as a “key champion” for the program, fostering cultural connections between the two communities that have led to the construction of a children’s library, a planetarium and the Albergue Infantil Josefino orphanage, which cares for 55 children. The group also funded a health care initiative that has helped rural villages grow nutritious food and learn about basic medical care.
Mandell also has worked with the Rotary and Kiwanis clubs to provide Oaxaca with eight badly needed emergency vehicles donated from Palo Alto. Oaxaca has named an ambulance after Mandell.

She has made good on that aspiration: As a teacher, a docent and the founder of the nonprofit Art in Action, Sleeth has inspired a love of art in thousands of Peninsula students, for which she is receiving the Avenidas Lifetimes of Achievement Award this month.
Sleeth, who grew up in Pasadena, studied history and art history in college and earned a master’s degree in education. She taught English, history and art history at Castilleja School in Palo Alto.
Art in Action began in 1982, when Sleeth volunteered in her eldest daughter’s kindergarten classroom. Budget cuts had ended arts education, so the teacher asked Sleeth to give art lessons.
Soon, friends began asking her to show them how to teach art. Sleeth designed curriculum for volunteers who don’t have a background in art -- mostly parents and some teachers. As the program grew, a friend, Betsy Halaby, helped train volunteers and develop lessons.
Art in Action now serves 74,000 students in kindergarten through eighth grade nationwide. In addition to offering lessons in art appreciation, the organization equips volunteers with “art kits” stocked with art supplies so that students can create their own art.
Sleeth often hears from teachers that days with Art in Action visits have almost perfect class attendance.
From the founding of Art in Action until her retirement as executive director in 2013, Sleeth never collected a salary. She is still active with the program, spearheading a scholarship fund that allows more schools to participate.
Last year, she received the President’s Lifetime Achievement Award from the Obama Administration. The award recognizes extraordinary volunteer service.
For many years, Sleeth has also volunteered as a docent with Stanford’s Cantor Arts Center, developing tours for school children. When Art in Action students come to the Cantor, Sleeth enjoys the chance to see their newfound appreciation of art.

Young couples aiming to manage two demanding careers and an engaging family and community life might look to Carol and Terry Winograd for inspiration.
Terry, a star in the field of artificial intelligence who left the industry in 1980 to create Stanford University’s Human-Computer Interaction Group, has mentored scores of technology entrepreneurs, including some of Silicon Valley’s most famous names.
Carol, a physician and professor of medicine and human biology at Stanford, directed the university’s Geriatric Research and Education Center until she was sidelined by illness and retired on disability in 1995. She later returned and, for another 12 years, taught a sophomore seminar in “Woman and Aging,” incorporating biology, psychology, sociology and even poetry.
This month, the Winograds are receiving the Avenidas Lifetime of Achievement Award for their efforts to eliminate poverty and promote peace. Carol has served on numerous boards including J Street, the Advisory Board of the Jewish Chaplaincy at Stanford Medical Center, Abraham’s Vision, New Israel Fund and the Women Donors Network’s Middle East Peace Circle. She is also a longtime member of Physicians for Social Responsibility, and she brought the Jewish and Muslim communities in Palo Alto and the south bay together as co-founder of JAMAA, Jewish and Muslim American Association.
Terry founded Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility and the Liberation Technology Project. He is an active member of Bend the Arc, a Jewish social justice organization. Together, they participate in Sunday Friends, a nonprofit organization that empowers families to break the generational cycle of poverty; Kol Emeth and Beth David synagogues; and the Palestinian Jewish Dialogue Group. They have also traveled to Kenya with Stanford students to help local people apply technology to solve problems of daily living.
The next two dates kicked off the couple’s long history of shared activism: They traveled to New Hampshire to work on the anti-Vietnam War Democratic presidential primary campaign of U.S. Sen. Eugene McCarthy.
Both had inherited a sense of liberal activism and civic engagement from their parents -- Terry’s in Greeley, Colorado, where his businessman father had served on the school board and Carol’s in Woodbridge, New Jersey, where her mother, a “consummate volunteer,” had established community mental health programs and a Reach to Recovery breast-cancer support program.
Terry has a childhood memory of going out with a wagon to campaign for Adlai Stevenson for president, “which, in Greeley, Colorado, was pretty ‘out there,’” he said.
Carol recalls holding tin cans with her brother in front of a Howard Johnson’s restaurant to collect donations for a cause she cannot remember.
“But I do remember my mother saying, ‘It’s the poor people who give more money than the rich people,’” she said.
Within months of their first date, Carol and Terry were living together and by the end of that same summer, they had married.
“We look back and say, ‘What were we thinking?’ How would you get involved so quickly and not take your time, but we just did it,” Terry said.
The Winograds moved from the East Coast to San Francisco in the early 1970s for Carol’s medical residency at the University of California, San Francisco.
She was particularly drawn to what she calls “medicine in the streets” or “political medicine,” having already worked in women’s health clinics, Black Panther clinics and as a medic for anti-Vietnam War demonstrations.
Terry took what he thought was a one-year fill-in position at Stanford for an artificial intelligence scholar who’d gone on sabbatical. But the other professor never came back, and Terry assumed the post permanently.
In those years of teaching, research and consulting at what was then Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), Terry came to a conclusion that led him to switch his research and teaching focus: the belief that artificial intelligence would never properly capture the scope of human cognition and that the more compelling pursuit was the use of computers to enhance -- not replace -- human intelligence.
Among the future entrepreneurs he advised were Google co-founder Larry Page and Linkedin co-founder Reid Hoffman.
Carol’s approach to geriatrics sprang from work early in her career at what was then called the Jewish Home for the Aged in Oakland.
Nowadays, both Winograds, officially retired from their faculty jobs, continue to mentor some students but make a lot of time for the progressive causes they favor and, for their grandchildren. Having had some pre-IPO shares in Google has allowed them also to become philanthropists and political donors, though they say it hasn’t changed their lifestyle much.
“We don’t buy a lot of stuff -- no new gadgets, no yacht, no furs, no jewels,” Terry said. | 2019-04-19T23:00:54 | https://paloaltoonline.atavist.com/meet-palo-altos-change-makers |

Most of you are probably familiar with the Christian/Jewish bible’s Genesis, the little story about how Mahabrahma (aka ‘God’) created the world….
From a Buddhist cosmological [what a contradiction in terms, :-)] standpoint, this particular event was not really unique – depending on your timeframe of course – but what if we, just for the fun of it, ask ourselves what did the Buddhists put at the very beginning of all their sacred texts and literature? What special emphasis did they create by establishing one particular text at the head of their ‘holy scriptures’, i.e. the Pali Canon of Early Buddhism.
Traditionally the Pali Canon starts with rules for monks and nuns. But if we skip that part and look at the collection of discourses the first book introduced to the reader is the Digha Nikaya, the ‘Collection of Long Discourses’. The text in this book which ancient compilers put at the beginning is a discourse by the Buddha called the Brahmajala sutta, i.e. ‘The Devine Net’.
So, how does this Buddhist ‘Genesis’ look like? In this text the Buddha starts out asking his followers never to feel angry if the Dhamma is ridiculed nor should they feel elated if the Dhamma is praised. He continues to explain how other religions come into their beliefs about various world- and soul- scenarios (among which the Buddha gives a fascinating account about how the belief in a monotheistic religion – and with it creation – is established).
However, central to this first text of Buddhist scriptures is the following recurring passage which so completely establishes what makes Buddhism so completely a non-religion.
But of these views, monks, the Tathagata (i.e. the Buddha) knows that arriving at such views, holding such views, believing such views, trusting such views will have such and such a consequence in terms of rebirth in the hereafter. This and much more the Tathagata is able to see, for he knows as it really is the coming to be and the passing away of sense experience, the satisfaction of sense experience and the way of escape from sense experience.
And because he does not cling to what he sees he is detached and he experiences for himself the peace of utter freedom.
These are advanced things, monks, matters that are deep, difficult to see, difficult to grasp, subtle, leading one who follows to tranquility and the sublime; things not to be arrived at by mere logic and reasoning, comprehensible only by the wise. These, monks, are the things the Tathagata teaches, having seen them for himself. These are the things which should be spoken of by one when he speaks in praise of the Tathagata.
Tayidaṃ, bhikkhave, tathāgato pajānāti – ‘ime diṭṭhiṭṭhānā evaṃgahitā evaṃparāmaṭṭhā evaṃgatikā bhavanti evaṃabhisamparāyā’ti, tañca tathāgato pajānāti, tato ca uttaritaraṃ pajānāti; tañca pajānanaṃ na parāmasati, aparāmasato cassa paccattaññeva nibbuti viditā. Vedanānaṃ samudayañca atthaṅgamañca assādañca ādīnavañca nissaraṇañca yathābhūtaṃ viditvā anupādāvimutto, bhikkhave, tathāgato.
Still, due to the overwhelming attraction of thoughts and ideas, Buddhism as a religion had to come up with creation-like stories to satisfy the thirst for … stories 🙂 . One of the most ancient ones is definitely the Agganna Sutta [pi]- which, funny enough, most Buddhists have never heard of.
In it we find signs of evolution, physical that is, but the major driving force behind evolution in this text is not attributed to some random magic materialism but rather the governing force of karma (i.e. intentions/actions of beings) driving their physical representation depending on the mental ups and downs in individual beings, societies and cultures in the universe. In the light of the above quoted passages it still should be clear that Buddhism is less interested in these facets of (physical/natural) samsaric re-cycling (pun intended) or evolutionary and devolutionary whirlpools but rather focuses on the sources of the movie projection.
Loop Quantum Gravity Theory and the Big Bounce – this is a very good summary.
It would be interesting to see what later Buddhist traditions put at the very beginning of their body of scriptures. Maybe one would be able to see a shift in emphasis towards other ideas?
You are right on about “what makes Buddhism so completely a non-religion.” Dhamma is all about seeing correctly the present experience for oneself and not getting stuck — it is not about praying, splitting words, holding views… Come and see, ehi passiko.
Speaking of Agganna Sutta, there is this line: Then some being of a greedy nature thought, “What can this be?” and tasted the savory earth on its finger. In so doing, it became taken with the flavor, and craving arose in it.
Ahhh… Everything, absolutely everything, begins like this. Outside of time, akaliko.
Thanks Khandy for the comment & pointing out that line!
There it is again. The dualistic either/or.
Material actor vs immaterial action.
Planck’s fundamental action is what reforms into actors/objects.
Karma IS the law of objects because objects are ultimately empty of inherent thing-ness/stability. | 2019-04-19T20:16:43 | http://www.theravadin.org/2009/02/16/buddhist-genesis/?replytocom=114 |
The Golden Eagles has announced the launch of its new website, manlygoldeneagles.com.au, marking the next step in the association's development.
Headed by former front rowers Mark Bryant and Josh Perry, the Manly Warringah Golden Eagles Association is a group of past rugby league players who turned out for the Sea Eagles in any grade, not just first grade.
Reaching all the way back to the inaugural 1947 season, the association brings every ex-player from Manly back together again at the club and already boasts more than 300 members, including legends of the game Max Krilich, Alan Thompson, Michael O’Connor, Paul Vautin, Cliffy Lyons, Merv Gillmer and many more.
The new website ensures both fans and members keep up-to-date on members, latest news, video interviews with the players, Golden Eagles merchandise coming soon, plus details of the association’s work in the community.
2015 promises to be a busy year for the Golden Eagles with a number of charity functions and game day social activities lined up across the peninsula.
The first major event will take place at The Collaroy Hotel in February with the Roki4Auction. Raising precious funds for local boy Roki Mills, who was born with cerebral palsy and suffered brain damage due to a lack of oxygen during a difficult birth, the event promises to be a sell-out.
The Golden Eagles will also host a monthly meat tray raffle at the Manly Leagues Club and has plans for a star-studded charity golf day later in the year.
With the full backing of the Sea Eagles, including CEO Joe Kelly, the association also has high profile support in the form of patrons Ken Arthurson and Steve Menzies.
The fans are already showing their support for the association – the group’s Facebook page has more than 1,300 followers regularly sharing player and match stats, and commenting on sightings of former rugby league ‘greats’ around town.
The support of local businesses in helping get the Golden Eagles off the ground has also been vital.
With the website up and running, the association is urging former players to get in touch through the site and for fans to sign up for the newsletter by email because, in the words of Bryant, “it’s time to bring our ex-players home again”.
For more information about the Manly Warringah Golden Eagles Association, go to www.manlygoldeneagles.com.au or contact Mark Bryant on 0427 100 669.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Relax Capital One customers. The bank says it won’t be showing up at your front door or office to collect on a delinquent credit card bill, even though rarely-read fine print in the bank’s credit card rules allow it to do just that.
Capital One’s rules state that customers can be contacted by mail, phone or email, as well as by “personal visit.” They also say customers can be contacted “at your home or at your place of employment.
The rules aren’t new but the L.A. Times column lit up social media and left the bank scrambling to reassure credit card customers. “Capital One does not visit our cardholders, nor do we send debt collectors to their homes or work,” the bank said in an emailed statement.
“We’re considering creating two separate agreements given this language doesn’t apply to our general cardholder base,” the bank said in a statement Tuesday.
“Bad enough they know what’s in my wallet. Now they want to know what’s in my fridge? tweeted Karen J Larson.
“This is my bank; maybe it’s time to find a new one,” tweeted Washington Times columnist Joseph Curl.
“Come to my house and get .40 caliber interest,” tweeted another reader.
The LA Times column also pointed out the cardholder rules allow Capital One to “modify or suppress caller ID and similar services and identify ourselves on these services in any manner we choose,” suggesting the bank could disguise itself to get past cardholders who are screening their calls.
They are one of the shady credit cards and have been written up as such many times by different financial magazines and columns. Yet people still get taken by their ads.
How about just pay your bill. I have a capital one card, have for 8 years, no problems.
When I tried to pay off my Capital One card back in 1993, they sat on the check for 28 day (as per the proof of delivery/receipt I had from the post office) so it would be late. Then when I confronted them about it, they refused to cooperate. Since then, the answer to their mailings and spam e-mails, is “The answer is always no.”. I even cancelled both my Kohls and Sears Cards when I found out that Capital One took over the cards. I do not do business with crooks.
Capital One makes money off of you and everyone else, even if you pay your bills on time. Sorry, if you’ve used your Capital One Card for 8 years, you’ve paid a big hidden cost without even knowing it.
See Ellen Brown’s recent article for more clarity. | 2019-04-19T12:24:38 | https://fox8.com/2014/02/18/relax-capital-one-says-it-wont-be-knocking-on-your-door/ |

"The growth of insurance plans built around small networks of health-care providers is fueling new fights over surprise medical bills, when patients inadvertently get care from out-of-network doctors."
Healthcare provider pays $650,000 fine because iPhone was stolen that contained health information. "You're only as safe as your partner," she says. "Everyone involved with vendor management should develop a common, collaborative security strategy that includes layering new protections onto processes and policies to defend against information risk in the supply chain."
Artificial intelligence, wearable sensors, virtual reality, medical robots are changing the way patients and doctors think and act about healthcare.
The nearly 50,000 physician and medical student members of the Texas Medical Association urge the leadership of CMS to chart a different course of action.
"An online self-diagnosis will usually elicit a rolling of the eyes and a biting of the tongue from the GP when you do eventually make the trip to the doctor's office."
Doctors Used to be Banned from Texting. Here’s What Has Changed.
The Joint Commission, the United States’ main healthcare accreditation body, has lifted its ban on healthcare providers using secure text messaging to communicate patient information.

Could Transferring Custody of a Digital Chart to the Patient Drive Patient Engagement?
Is transferring custody of the electronic record the right approach to health information disposal?
What should digital chart disposal look like? Do we “shred” digital charts? Do we “shred” part of them? Do we keep them forever?

someone reminded me it was 39 days until Christmas – and I still let them live!!
Do you remember when you were a kid and you ticked off the days until Christmas, eagerly looking forward to opening your presents and stuffing yourself full of treats?? No school for the summer and just so many hot fabulous days to enjoy.
Why is Christmas as an adult just so stressful? Is it the unreasonable expectations or commercial pressures?
Downstairs in our building there is a tile shop where at the moment every single customer is trying to complete projects before Christmas. Our car park is crowded with constant deliveries as they try to meet everyone’s expectations. Really you didn’t get round to renovating the house until November and now it needs to be done before Christmas along with every other renovator in Sydney? Wait till February next year and enjoy purchasing what you need in the January sales!
Apart from the commercial pressure there is the difficulty of organising a large amount of catering for the meal that gets eaten on the one day that the shops are shut. This means that Woolies and Coles are insane for a few days before Christmas and a few days after. One way to deal with this is to buy all the non-perishables at least a week before which reduces the amount of shopping you have to do at that time and seriously consider ordering online for delivery on the 23rd December – it is doesn’t arrive you still have time to sort it out. If it does you just saved yourself 3 hours of dealing with the insane shopping and parking frenzy that precedes Christmas Day.
The major source of stress however exists where our relationships are already strained. For divorced couples this is often a very difficult time with deciding who gets the kids for Christmas? For families with difficult relationships or difficult relatives Christmas can be more stressful. Will a boozy uncle drink too much and get aggressive? Will your mother-in-law criticise your child rearing through the whole meal? Many people for the sake of family harmony put up with crap at Christmas that they wouldn’t tolerate the rest of the year. Perhaps its worth considering raising the issue before the day or having an agreed signal with your partner that means he changes the subject as soon as someone starts. If its really difficult consider having Christmas lunch at an external venue which reduces the amount of time you have to spend with the difficult family members.
Other options for reducing stress at Christmas could include an appropriate family game which everyone enjoys – scrabble, monopoly and cranium are often fun and easily fill a couple of hours if you can’t all escape to a pool or the beach. This is also a good way to slow down excessive alcohol consumption or give someone who needs time out a chance to slip away for a nap!
If you find the thought of this season fills you with dread it might be time to talk to someone about it. Counsellors often get very busy this time of year. | 2019-04-21T08:52:14 | https://christinepopenutritionist.com/2014/11/26/tis-the-season-to-be-stressed/ |
I am one who believes that God can and does reveal truth in all things. Something need not be “Christian” for God to use it for the revelation of truth. Over the years, I have been finding truth in the unlikeliest of places. I have found God’s truth at a Krishna temple in India, I have found it in films, in novels, in Walt Disney World (I mean, who wouldn’t), and I have found it in other faiths, old and young alike.
One such place that I have found some truth is in a book by James Redfield, The Celestine Prophecy. James Redfield was brought up in a Methodist Church that he described as being “loving and community-oriented”; however, he now is an influential person in the New Age movement. He was no doubt influenced by his Christian upbringing, but he also studied Eastern philosophies such as Taoism and Zen while a student at Auburn University.
Though he spent more than 15 years as a therapist for abused children, he left that and, since he published the worldwide bestseller, The Celestine Prophecy, he has become an bestselling New Age author, lecturer, screenwriter, and film producer. The book itself follows the protagonist, never actually named in the book, on a truth-seeking, soul searching adventure in Peru following the loss of a job and other personal crises that arise in his/her life.
In the film version of the book, there is a quote between the protagonist and someone else. While I don’t remember the quote exactly, word for word, I remember the gist of it, “When people have the true God-experience, the debate over whose religion is right or wrong fades away.” That quote truly struck me as provocative and something worthwhile writing about.
First, let me be clear that I DO NOT endorse the theology behind The Celestine Prophecy. As a New Age theology, it is quite simplistic with many glaring holes, inaccuracies of other religious beliefs and is, in many regards, without much substance in terms of a cohesive theology. Its mish-mashing of different theological ideas from different religions is intriguing, but often falls short and does a disservice to all the religions involved. But that does not mean that truth cannot be found within it.
Now, on to my point. One thing I have noticed in Christianity, is that some Christian circles are filled with some of the most insecure people ever. For instance, if one was secure in their faith in Christ and in God, why would they feel the need to demonize others who disagree with them or other religions that are not in line with theirs? If one were not operating out of fear and insecurity, there would be no need to participate in the whole, “My God is bigger than your god” debate.
Yes, there are times that one must defend their faith and their religious beliefs, especially when others are mischaracterizing them. Yes, one should stand up for their faith when others are pressuring him or her to deny it. Yes, one should represent their faith well and should teach people what they believe to be correct and theologically sound. However, one need not go on a crusade against other ideologies, other religions, or other people who differ from him or her.
Christians who aggressively attack other belief systems than their own, who pass out tracts warning people of a religious group that they’re going to be damned to hell, or go on long diatribes online as to why they think someone else has it so wrong, are practicing what I like to call, “Playground Christianity.” They’re acting like elementary-aged bullies on the playground fighting over whose daddy is bigger and can be the other’s dad up. It’s silly and it completely misses the heart of Christ’s message: LOVE.
The “true God experience”, as I see it and certainly as Redfield sees it as evidenced in his book, is the experience of God’s wild, untamable, unconditional LOVE. When one is enveloped and filled by that LOVE, one cannot help being transformed by it either. LOVE begets more love. God’s love transforms us to be creatures of love, to be agents of love, to be bearers of love. When one has the true God experience, when one truly knows and enters a relationship with God, the debate over who’s right or wrong, who’s holier and who’s not, and any other nonsensical comparison fades away. All that remains is LOVE. This doesn’t mean that LOVE doesn’t hold others accountable to truth and justice; however, there is no room for pettiness or divisiveness in LOVE. I would like to invite you to search God out, to have that true God experience in the context of a community of believers, and let go of anything that counters God’s LOVE.
Lord, fill me with your love and transform me into an agent of love. Amen. | 2019-04-18T20:31:07 | https://lifegivingwaterdevo.org/tag/chrsitianity/ |
This winter, Buffalo is fully embracing its cold weather. Canalside (canalsidebuffalo.com), covering 21 acres and with 33,000 square feet of ice, is one of three downtown ice rinks that have recently opened in this Rust Belt comeback city. Along with new craft breweries, food trucks and winter festivals, ice is among the new waterfront attractions that have residents and visitors enjoying the cold. Nearly 30,000 people skated at Canalside in the month after its splashy Dec. 18 opening, officials said. Canalside visitors, who’ve come from as far away as Switzerland and Japan, can also rent what are believed to be the country’s first ice bikes, inspired by recumbent Chinese machines and made locally with blades instead of front wheels.
Now the Canalside ice sits where the Erie Canal here once was, and where the Buffalo Sabres’ old hockey arena, Memorial Auditorium, stood from 1939 to 2009. Tim Tielman, executive director of the nonprofit Campaign for Greater Buffalo History, Architecture & Culture, helped push for the unique placement. “You’re skating on the same path as so much of Buffalo history, so much of American history,” he said.
Across from Canalside is HarborCenter (harborcenter.com), a more than $200 million project financed by the Buffalo Sabres and Buffalo Bills owners Terry and Kim Pegula. With two rinks and an N.H.L.-caliber training center — plus a skyway to the Sabres’ current arena — hockey is HarborCenter’s big attraction. The buzzing (716) Food and Sport (716foodandsport.com) allows people to watch games on a 38-foot screen. The complex will soon fill in up to 10,000 square feet of street-level retail space and be topped with a 205-room Marriott later this year.
A 10-minute walk from HarborCenter to an industrial area along the Buffalo River takes you to RiverWorks (buffaloriverworks.com). A half-dozen 100-foot silos painted like a Labatt Blue six-pack announces that this old grain elevator has a new gig. It now holds 30,000 square feet of ice under an open-air pavilion. The year-old Buffalo Curling Club (buffalocurlingclub.org), which my husband and I joined with two friends at a combined cost of $440, has attracted nearly 500 people to slide heavy stones down the ice there weekly. Pond hockey was also scheduled.
Festivals are bringing people out, too. In early January, Canalside and HarborCenter co-hosted their first Winterfest. One mile away, in the redeveloped warehouse district of Larkinville (larkinsquare.com), businesses held an inaugural Ice Festival at the end of January celebrating what organizers called “our newfound love of ice.” Both festivals included food trucks, in addition to ice bars and sculptures. Larkinville’s offerings were set up in front of Flying Bison Brewing Co., which moved its craft brewery and rugged-industrial taproom to this up-and-coming area last fall.
Among the new cold-weather fans is the Rev. William Weiksnar, known as Father Jud, a Buffalo native who recently returned to his hometown after 27 years. When the Franciscan friar was growing up, indoor rinks were king, he said. Now he’s been skating almost daily at Canalside, even in his brown robe. “Buffalo’s great in the summer, but there’s something to look forward to in winter now, too,” he said. And post-skate, the friar said, he is partial to Flying Bison beer. | 2019-04-18T14:31:42 | https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/01/travel/buffalo-embraces-winters-chill.html?referrer= |
A combination of elotuzumab, an immunostimulatory monoclonal antibody, with lenalidomide and dexamethasone has been shown to be effective in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
A combination of elotuzumab, an immunostimulatory monoclonal antibody, with lenalidomide and dexamethasone has been shown to be effective in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Researchers conducted a study involving patients whose multiple myeloma was refractory or relapsed and refractory to lenalidomide and a proteasome inhibitor. The patients were randomly assigned to receive elotuzumab plus pomalidomide and dexamethasone or a combination of pomalidomide plus dexamethasone. A total of 117 patients were randomly assigned to either the elotuzumab group or the control group. After a minimum followup period of 9.1 months, the median progression-free survival was 10.3 months in the elotuzumab group and 4.7 months in the control group. The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse events were neutropenia (13% in the elotuzumab group vs. 27% in the control group), anemia (10% vs. 20%), and hyperglycemia (8% vs. 7%). Approximately two-thirds of the patients in each group had infections, while 5% (3) of those in the elotuzumab group had infusion reactions. The researchers conclude, "The findings from this randomized trial showed that the addition of the monoclonal antibody elotuzumab to pomalidomide and dexamethasone resulted in a significant improvement over pomalidomide and dexamethasone alone in treatment outcomes of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma."

Does Your Auto Insurance Policy Cover Trailers?
Does car insurance cover trailers towed behind your vehicle? Does car insurance cover boats and other items towed behind your car? Today, we’re explaining everything you need to know about whether or not auto insurance covers trailers and other items towed behind your vehicle.
If you are towing a trailer behind your insured vehicle, then your auto insurance policy may cover it. Most auto insurance policies provide liability coverage for trailers. If you own the trailer, if your vehicle is insured, and if you get into an accident, then you should have liability insurance on your trailer.
However, not all policies work this way. Not all policies from all insurance companies cover trailers, for example. Guidelines vary between states and companies. Some policies may explicitly forbid any type of trailer coverage. Other policies may require your trailer to be listed on your declarations page.
Generally, however, your trailer will be covered under your car’s liability coverage. Comprehensive and collision coverage is a different story. Furthermore, certain trailers – and other things towed behind your vehicle – may be exempt from all types of car insurance coverage.
Many auto insurance policies automatically extend liability coverage to your trailer. The same cannot be said, however, about comprehensive and collision coverage. Many insurance companies require you to buy a separate insurance policy to receive comprehensive or collision coverage.
Some insurance companies are more generous. They will extend your comprehensive or collision coverage to the trailer without requiring you to buy a separate policy. In other cases, your trailer may need to be listed on the declarations page of your policy to be covered. Or, your insurance company may need to add an endorsement to your policy verifying coverage for your trailer.
Liability Coverage: Liability coverage covers damage you cause to other people and property during a collision. It may cover the medical expenses of the other driver if you caused an at-fault collision, for example, as well as the cost of repairing the other driver’s vehicle. If your trailer was damaged during a collision with another vehicle, and the other driver was at-fault, then your trailer should be covered by the other driver’s liability insurance.
Collision Coverage: Collision coverage covers damage to your own vehicle during a collision – even if you were at-fault. It covers the cost of repairing your vehicle to its pre-loss condition. Or, if your car is sufficiently damaged, your insurance company will send you a check for the replacement value of your vehicle.
Comprehensive Coverage: Comprehensive coverage covers your trailer or vehicle in non-accident situations. If your trailer is damaged by hail, for example, or destroyed during a flood, then you may be able to make a claim under your comprehensive damage.
Talk to your insurance company to verify the type of coverage on your trailer. Depending on your policy, your trailer could have liability, comprehensive, and collision coverage – or no coverage whatsoever.
Up to this point, we’re assuming you are hauling a trailer with nothing on it. Most auto insurance policies will extend coverage to a trailer towed behind your own vehicle (assuming it’s your own trailer and not a rented trailer).
However, this coverage does not necessarily extend to the item towed on your trailer – like an ATV, RV, a boat, or a separate vehicle.
Sometimes, your auto insurance policy will cover anything on the trailer. In some cases, however, you will need to buy a separate insurance policy – or at least pay to add the item onto your current car insurance policy.
This is where insurance companies can vary widely. Some insurance companies will extend liability to your boat and your trailer while it’s being towed behind your vehicle. Typically, they only extend liability insurance – not comprehensive or collision coverage.
Which Types of Trailers Are Not Covered by Insurance?
Most car insurance policies will extend liability coverage to a trailer towed behind your vehicle – assuming your vehicle is insured and you own the trailer.
However, many car insurance policies do not automatically provide comprehensive and collision coverage for your trailer. In order to receive comprehensive and collision coverage, you may need to contact your insurance company and buy a separate policy. | 2019-04-26T16:08:30 | https://www.4autoinsurancequote.com/learning-center/auto-liability-insurance-for-trailers/ |

AT THE BEST of times, food is a joy.
There are so many delicious items out there, just waiting for us to devour them. It’s truly wonderful.
However, occasionally desperation or a need for immediacy results in food tragedy. Foods that, if they could feel emotions, would definitely feel sad.
Here are some of the saddest food items in existence.
This poor, poor food item has almost no nutritional value.
Can you imagine asking for a potato dog? That would be a low point.
We fully appreciate the occasional need to have a burger ASAP, but surely there are better ways?
…And their even more tragic sibling, the microwave doner kebab. I mean, really?
Cornflakes are the saddest of all the cereals, put them in a bag and remove all personality from the packaging and you’ve got a veritable tragedy.

Diamond chips are great accents in small rings.
Diamond chip engagement rings are a cheap alternative to larger stones and more elaborate designs, and the versatility of diamond chips also helps keep even heavily accented pieces more affordable for couples on a tight budget.
What Is a Diamond Chip?
Simply put, a diamond chip is a less than fully faceted stone that does not have a complete diamond shape. The chip may be a remnant from when a larger stone was cut and set into jewelry, or it could be just a small diamond that cannot be crafted into a completely finished shape. Some chips are also the result of cutting accidents when a larger stone is shattered but some of the pieces can be reused as accents. Diamond chips are real diamonds, but because of their incomplete shapes they are far less expensive than larger stones.
While some diamond chips are useful and can be fashioned into beautiful pieces of jewelry, a chip taken out of a larger stone has a drastic impact on that stone's value. Losing a chip will disrupt a diamond's symmetry and facets, causing it to reflect and refract light in irregular patterns. This can be particularly devastating for cuts that rely on a specialized light and shadow pattern for their beauty, such as Asscher cuts with their hall-of-mirrors effect or princess cuts with their characteristic interior X pattern. Diamonds with very high clarity, however, can withstand small chips more easily because the stones are so clear that small imperfections are more difficult to notice.
Diamonds can be chipped by sharp blows, improper cutting, and rough wear; to prevent accidental chips, a diamond ring should always be removed when performing cleaning, sports, or other potentially hazardous tasks, and repairs should only be attempted by qualified jewelers.
Diamond chips make fabulous accents.
Center stones for small carat weight designs.
Accent stones for bridal set engagement rings or other multi-stone designs.
Small accents for elaborate rings such as Celtic engagement rings or filigree engagement rings when the metal is the focal point.
Accents in pave settings when small stones are more desirable than larger gems.
Combined chips for illusion and cluster settings to simulate larger gemstones.
Replacing lost gems in heirloom engagement rings or antique engagement rings for lower cost.
Creating replicas of vintage engagement ring designs when frugality was valued and chips were frequently used.
Accents for inset designs where the full body of the gem is not visible, such as scatter settings.
Accents for figural rings, such as a sparkling eye on a dolphin engagement ring or the center of a flower engagement ring.
Because diamond chip engagement rings use only pieces of gems rather than full stones, they are generally less expensive than their more meticulous counterparts, bringing elaborate designs into the price range of many couples.
Because a diamond chip already has an incomplete shape, it is important to carefully set the gemstone to maximize its beauty in other ways. Setting chips in platinum, white gold, or silver will accentuate their color, for example. The size of chips can also be enhanced by choosing cluster settings or other multi-stone arrangements that bring several stones in close proximity to one another so their edges can blend together. If a chip is to be used as a focal point of a ring, the setting should be as open as possible so more light can enter and visually enhance the stone, giving it the illusion of a larger size.
Chips may be used in bands.
Because diamonds are rare and valuable, many jewelers find uses for diamond chips other than attempting to set them into engagement rings. Chips are a superb accent to other types of diamond jewelry, including necklaces and earrings, where they are often used as both focal points and accents. Chips may also be set into cuff links or other jewelry for men as well as smaller pieces for women.
Diamond chip engagement rings are affordable, economical choices for many couples, whether they are on a tight budget or are interested in a more elaborate design that would be too expensive with full stones. Regardless of how a chip is used, its sparkle will be just as brilliant as any other gem, and it is still a luxurious and elegant way to symbolize a couple's relationship. | 2019-04-19T08:44:59 | https://engagementrings.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Diamond_Chip_Engagement_Rings |
I listened to a talk (download here) this morning regarding how Christians ought to think about The DaVinci Code. Some of you may this is old news and we need to move on with other issues since the movie has proven to be a disappointment (on several levels).
However, in the talk something was mentioned that stuck in my mind. It is something I mentioned while teaching Sunday School yesterday on evangelism. It relates with Romans 1.18-25. As promised I will be posting on how to “do” evangelism.
Consider this my first post on the topic.
Paul tells us in his letter to the Romans that men, in their unrighteousness suppress what they know to be true. That is, the myriad of discussions I have had with people who deny that God exists are suppressing the truth that they have ingrained in them (and which is easily perceived in the world). The issue for the Christian is not merely trying to show a non-believer that God exists, it is digging deeper into the person’s life and asking what the reason for their suppression of the truth.
When we have dialogues with people they are not coming to the conversation with a blank slate ready to be convinced. No, they are coming with a childhood where the youth pastor was jerk, church folk unrighteously judged, abuse, etc. In other words, these friends we are talking with have a myriad of reasons they don’t want to believe in God. Rather than press into God they foolishly blame him for sin in their life or in other’s lives. It’s easier that way.
By denying the existence of God I have no King who demands my joyful obedience. I can also seem pretty righteous because I’m not like “them.” I can feel intellectually superior because I don’t need the projection of religion (as Freud called it) or a crutch (as Mark penned).
Humans, by nature, are worshipers. The question is what does one worship. Paul tells us that the unrighteous “exchanged” worship of God for worship of another. He says creature. We should not interpret that as merely snakes, birds, elephants…we should also leave room for human beings.
This human worship is expressed either in falling over to touch the arm of a rock star. Or it’s expressed in watching every word and action so people affirm your social graces. Or it’s expressed in having all the right hand gestures when preaching. Or it’s expressed in how many people visit your blog. Okay, enough public confession.
My point comes to what was said in the DaVinci talk. The reason why The DaVinci Code has been so popular is due to the fact that worshipers will grasp for anything that gives the least bit of promise to free them from obedience to their Maker. Betrand Russell made the erroneous claim that it was not clear enough that God existed – from the facts on the ground. This is what Proverbs calls foolishness. It is like denying that air exists. More than this, it is rebellion.
The reason why The DaVinci Code (and future polemics against Christianity will) flourish is because humans will reach out in the dark for any tom-foolery that will enable them to worship themselves. It has been shown that so much of the blasphemies in The DaVinci Code have no ground to stand on, but people will still tout the claims as true. Skepticism seems so righteous to the fool.
Next post will be delving into how we can press the legitimacy and truth of Christianity’s claims into the questions and conscience of our friends. | 2019-04-20T10:53:14 | http://www.matthewwireman.com/denial-and-davinci/ |

It’s inevitable that sometimes your kids are going to miss school, especially if they fall ill. Despite this, schoolwork continues, meaning when they return there’s bound to be a whole load of assignments that will need completing. At Tutor Doctor we know how important it is to fulfill our responsibilities even when we fall behind a little. That’s why we’ve put together some tips for tackling homework after a school absence.
Determine exactly what’s got to be done.
First things first- you need to determine with your child exactly what they need to catch up on. Nowadays this is easier than ever, with schools posting daily updates, weekly quizzes and class-work information on web pages. If this isn’t an option, you can also email your child’s teacher or pop into school and get a detailed list of work that needs completing.
We all know big jobs are much easier to manage when they’re broken down into smaller ones. The last thing you want is for your child to feel overwhelmed by their workload, as it will make them feel stressed and not able to perform to the best of their ability. Help your kids prioritise which tasks are the most important and encourage them to start with these. Learning how to break down big projects is a valuable life lesson that will help with your child through school, career and beyond -- so the sooner they learn how to do this effectively the better!
Once you’ve prioritised a list of areas in which your child needs to catch up, it’s time to make a plan together. Schedule a reasonable timeline, allowing a few hours a week for them to catch up on the work they’ve missed. For each hour, set smaller goals, such as reading to the end of chapter 3 of the English book they’re studying, or completing a certain section in a textbook. Setting realistic tasks in a structured format is probably going to be the easiest way for your child to gradually get up to speed without feeling overwhelmed.
If your child has upcoming exams or has a lot of catching up to do, it may be a good idea for them to stay after school once or twice a week. Not only will the learning environment mean they can concentrate on the task in hand, they can always ask their teacher to stay behind and help them if they’re struggling. After a few weeks, we guarantee they’ll be back on track.
It’s going to be hard to catch up with assignments on top of their normal workload, so expect a few speed bumps along the way. The most effective form of encouragement is to try and remain positive and patient, as well as offering firm but gentle guidance. There really is nothing more important than your child knowing they have support along the way!
Finally, make sure that you don’t leave catching up with schoolwork solely to your child. Every now and again, check in to see how they’re doing. Not only does this show you care, it also lets your kids know that you’re involved and interested while ensuring they don’t ignore outstanding assignments. It’s also important that you see what they’ve been doing -- so don’t be afraid to ask to see schoolbooks, worksheets and laptop work. If you can ensure they’re on track and putting in the effort, small rewards can also go a long way and will be sure to keep them motivated during this short period. | 2019-04-25T23:40:31 | https://www.tutordoctor.co.uk/blog/2017/april/tips-for-tackling-homework-after-a-school-absenc/ |

The wiring diagram on the opposite hand is particularly beneficial to an outside electrician. Sometimes wiring diagram may also refer to the architectural wiring program. The simplest approach to read a home wiring diagram is to begin at the source, or the major power supply. Basically, the home wiring diagram is simply utilized to reveal the DIYer where the wires are.
In a parallel circuit, each unit is directly linked to the power supply, so each system gets the exact voltage. There are 3 basic sorts of standard light switches. The circuit needs to be checked with a volt tester whatsoever points. C10 Motor Diagram. Each circuit displays a distinctive voltage condition. You are able to easily step up the voltage to the necessary level utilizing an inexpensive buck-boost transformer and steer clear of such issues. The voltage is the sum of electrical power produced by the battery. Be sure that the new fuse isn't blown, and carries the very same amperage.

It was August, 2015. Playing weekend sport with friends, , my right Achilles tendon ruptured and snapped completely, meaning I couldn’t walk at all. In pain, but grateful for my income protection policy, I called my insurance company to submit my claim. It was denied based on an administrative error.
I had been with the same insurer for over a decade.
I had never missed a payment.
I had never felt such injustice or so powerless to do anything about it.
While this wasn’t the life-destroying incident it could have been, it was certainly a life-changing one. It crystallised how I could impact the world for the better: by recreating the insurance industry to give power back to the people. People like you and me and our families and friends.
Shareholder-owned companies seek to achieve or enhance returns for their shareholders. This means one critical thing; the objectives of a shareholder-owned insurance company are in conflict with the needs of its customers.
If an insurance corporation focuses on shareholder outcomes, that corporation must therefore seek to extract as much profit or value it can from its customers. So, when a loyal customer submits a claim, these institutions are incentivised to find a way not to pay.
A corporation cannot serve two masters, so they choose the one with the power. Shareholders come first, every time.
That simply isn’t right in the context of insurance. In fact, it is fundamentally wrong, on so many levels.
My goal was set: find a way to take the monolithic shareholder-focused corporate institution out of the insurance equation. Remove the conflict. Build a business model that is fair, honest and has the needs of its members at its heart.
The shareholder-owned insurance corporation was borne from industrialisation, at a time when we needed a powerful entity with lots of capital to act as a middleman. If we wanted to exchange money with somebody else, we used the intermediary. We weren’t sure if we could trust that somebody else; but we did trust the big institution.
Recent documented cases of customer mistreatment by financial institutions in the pursuit of shareholder-focused goals have proven that community trust in these institutions is potentially mis-placed.
While trust has declined, technology has advanced significantly. The advance of mobile digital technology has enabled safe and secure direct transactions, with a user-friendly customer experience.
Yet despite the erosion of trust and the application of technology to reimagine almost every other industry, there have been only minor attempts to recreate the insurance industry.
In spite of this, the primary reasons the large insurance corporations still have such monopolistic power and that no one is challenging the very core of their existence can be summarised as: It is too hard, takes too long and costs too much money.
But this is about something far more important than money. It’s about fairness. It’s about having your say and being heard. It’s about fundamentally revolutionising an industry to give power back to the people. And, at Picnic, we believe that’s worth fighting for, no matter how hard or how long it takes.
It was this over-riding purpose that prompted us to explore the origins of insurance.
Early human communities relied on the concept of mutuality in order to survive. Pooling resources to collectively insure and protect the whole village in the event of fire, flood or famine. If disaster didn’t strike, they then retained the resources in what we’d now call an insurance mutual.
By creating the Picnic Mutual, we knew we could return insurance to how it should be: collective and compassionate. As a policyholder member of a mutual, it is your money, pooled for your benefit and the directors of the mutual are obligated to manage that money in your best interests.
In an insurance mutual, you are the owners, so you come first every time.
The challenge with establishing a mutual that meets regulatory requirements is that it is incredibly hard to fund to the level required by regulators. So Picnic is restoring the origin of insurance, using the innovation of a replicable low cost technology platform that is accessible by a lean insurance mutual.
At Picnic, we intend to use blockchain technology to tokenise ownership of Picnic the platform company and completely separate it from Picnic the insurance mutual. In doing so, we cut out the shareholders from the insurance entity but still fund the mutual through investors. Through the mutual, we give power back to the people who need it: the members.
As consumers ourselves, we understand the love-hate relationship that exists with insurance: we hate it but begrudgingly pay for it because we know we may need it. With Picnic, you are both member and owner so it’s a win-win relationship.
It’s fair, honest and transparent.
It gives power back to the people.
And that’s why we believe it will have a positive impact on the world. | 2019-04-26T04:11:19 | https://www.picnic.com/blog/picnic-the-origin-story |
Vega 56 disapointing, when are amd gonna realease new gaming cards?
Doom runs very well but wanted to try a vega 56 since not all games are as easy as Doom.
Same card as my rx 580 but vega 56, it gave me 200fps in doom at ultra but temps went up to 82-83c and my custom fancurve went above 50% sometimes over 60% and that was too much for my taste.
Vega 56 ran with my i5-8400 in the 80's to 99% in either project cars 2 or doom, what a disapointing results although 200fps in doom is more than okay.
I guess i have to wait until next year if i want more fps, but for how long?
I dont understand what the problem is here. You bought a vega56 to replace the 580 but tried it on a different system?
Could be a dodgy keyboard?
As far as I can understand his problems are temps/noise,in which case it's no surprise cause Vega is power hungry and hot. Get nitro+ or nvidia.
His specs say he's got a 1080.
I have heard that amd is gonna release some cards this year but some say it's there pro cards.
that being said i am in no rush to upgrade. winter 2019 for me, AMD 7nm cpu and gpu combo. thats my next build. gtx 1070 laptop until then.
Same card as your RX580 but ... not ?
Navi in 2019 if all the stars align.
Other than that, you're screwed.
Sorry to hear you are disappointed with your card. That´s never a nice feeling. Vega is running hot on air, did you try UV it just a bit? Might help with fan noise.
What do you mean with that sentence? Your Vega runs at 80°C-99°C or 80% usage to 99% usage or 80°C @ 99% usage? Because what more can you want from your GPU then to run at 99%? Every card will run at max. usage if you don´t have a limiter like fps cap or CPU bottleneck.
Free cleaning, anyone else wants to take shots at the OP or drag the thread off topic will receive points.
80-99% gpu usage, even when i did get more fps i wasn't running the vega 56 at 99-100% usage.
Despite the gpu not being utilized,used 99-100% it got so hot that the fans was to noisy (for my taste) with my silent custom fan curve, unless i wanted to use different cooling solution (warranty) i could only make the card hotter (90c?) or more noisy (higher fan speed).
The 3 strix fans are good enough for the rx 580 not the vega 56/64.
I just tried a simple UV of less than 100mv around 50mv, when it got hot in doom (lot's going on), my card froze, i had to reboote a couple of times or 3 before i sat the core voltage back to 0%.
yes,vega is hot,should've googled it.
if you can return it then go for the nitro version,sapphire cooling is quiet.
your sig says gtx 1080, is this on your secondary pc ?
Next consumer gpus will be navi and will be released next year. Since navi will be last iteration of GCN architechture personally if i would have to upgrade now i would be considering two things: choice between 580 8GB and vega 56 or 64, depending on price, other thing would be to wait for gpus after navi as they will be new, not GCN anymore architecture which will be released probably in 2020.
I did know it was hot.
How ever hot it got, i knew it was a card that easily could be used with a 650 watt psu like i have.
So a video where the vega 56 got over 50% more fps in bf 1 1080p compared to a rx 580 and i knew shadow of the tomb raider is not as easy as doom, so i wanted to try a vega 56 (didn't thought the difference in bf 1 would be that big).
I got more fps but more heat and noise, it wasn't worth the price difference, the sapphire card is much more expensive than the already expensive asus strix vega 56.
Honestly you should just keep your 580 and maybe Crossfire it, since you have Freesync monitors anyway you shouldn't notice to many issues, and most AAA games will support crossfire, and at 1080p freesync, you might have turn down a couple settings but most can probably stay at high.
Then wait for 7nm AMD cards late next year or in 2020.
to be frank I understand his disappointment a little bit. When I upgraded from 980 to 980ti I could easily see the difference,but the heat and noise made it kinda disappointing too. Going for a fast card with good thermals and noise is the only way I could actually be completely satisfied with a new GPU.
when i watch youtube videos i watch alot of videos, so i have seen alot, i wanted to experience it for my self how a vega 56 is, i just know the card i wanted to try (sapphire vega 56 nitro+) is to expensive more than 10% expensive than a asus vega 56 strix, so much that it's in the price range of used gtx 1080 ti.
lol you can't do it like that. jut cause you have 200 in doom does not mean it'll run at 150 in most games. If you have 80 in tomb raider on vega 56, imagine you'll only have 60 rx580. Vega 56 is a good performance for price card, but if you prefer your card to be cool and quiet it is very hard to achieve, you'd have to undervolt and have a quiet case with great airflow too.
and the fact that vega is not being fully utilized is down to your CPU. 8400 is a great bang for the buck,but for high refresh gaming you may need an 8600k.
As ever this shits relative, i got a vega 64 waterblocked it, mines quite as hell clocks to 1700 in gaming and runs below 60° flat out, but if i came on here saying all other graphics cards are too noisy, or hot because my One isn't what then.
Other versions of vega 56 definitely have better cooling, Vega (and all other GPU) are made to operate in a high temperature range , this is normal and consistent with every card i pushed to IT'S max.
And various cooling arrangements have now been attached to vega ,try another type brand.
Seams a little trolly ,you list a 1080 after all.
I mean, it all depends on what you are trying to accomplish. The RX 580 is a little worse than the GTX 1060 6GB model where as the Vega 56 is a bit better than a GTX 1070 making it vastly superior to the RX 580.
He doesnt understand that going from a mid range to upper, temps are going to be higher its like going from a 1060 ti to 1070/ti or 1080/ti. | 2019-04-23T15:57:57 | https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/vega-56-disapointing-when-are-amd-gonna-realease-new-gaming-cards.247666/ |

Apex Legends Lifeline is an incredible useful legend to have on just about any squad. Here ability to support her teammates is nearly unprecedented even as she's given free rein to take shots. Here are some tips on how to play Lifeline.
Lifeline is Apex Legends' most straightforward healer. Her active ability, D.O.C. Heal Drone, calls in a robot to heal her and any teammates who stand close enough to the drone. This can be vital in runs where your squad fails to find enough healing items, and also comes in handy during drawn out skirmishes from afar. All things being equal, a team with Lifeline will outlast any other team without.
Lifeline's passive ability lets her revive allies who have been knocked down more quickly and from behind a protective barrier. It also lets her use healing items more quickly than the rest of the cast. All of the above are useful in late-game fights. If one teammate goes down, Lifeline can revive them while her living teammate keeps up suppressing fire. This makes it much harder to safely push a team with Lifeline.
Finally, Lifeline's ultimate calls in top shelf equipment for her team. Players will want to use this ability as often as possible to loot up in the early game. It can also bait enemies into compromised positions.
Generally, Lifeline should try to stay near her teammates in case she needs to offer a heal or a revive. She tends to perform better in teams that are comfortable holding down a single area rather than running headlong into a fight.
Still, Lifeline players shouldn't avoid combat. After all, that's what the healing is for. Lifeline can play aggressive and recover more easily than other legends, making her useful in trigger happy squads as well. The name of the game is knowing when to hunker down and when to push. | 2019-04-23T23:55:50 | https://www.dbltap.com/posts/6293506-apex-legends-lifeline-how-to-play-lifeline?view_source=leagues_page&view_medium=%5Bhearthstone%5D |
This event was an important step towards further growing the close relationship between ERA and other key airline associations for the great benefit of the airline industry. This highly-productive meeting has reaffirmed the importance of working closely with our partners and contributes to the valuable strategic work by all associations in representing the global aviation community.
Major skills shortage, availability and development of skilled talent. The only way forward is training, and collaborating with initiatives such as IATA's International Training Fund; ICAO's Next Generation of Aviation Professionals (NGAP); cadet schools and in-house airline training programmes; promotion of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education initiatives in primary and high school; and to support organisations such as the African Aviation Training OrganIsation (AATO).
Aviation professions are not attractive enough to potential candidates. The high cost of training is a deterrant to high quality candidates and potential pilots. Creating awareness of aviation as a career and supporting initiatives and NGO's such as Wonders of Aviation can assist in channeling identified talent toward careers in aviation.
Retention of talent. To address the exodus of skilled professionals to other industries, a pipeline of talent is needed to take the reigns of those retiring professionals. Skills transfer and mentorship programmes can assist with knowledge transfer across generations.
Transformation of the industry. Human resources and development are struggling to keep pace with technological developments and a changing work environment. Education and training initiatives can also assist in closing this gap. | 2019-04-24T04:16:40 | http://aasa.za.net/news-industry-affairs/aasa-news/era-hosts-2019-global-heads-of-airline-associations.html |
You bring out a card case and an envelope with a "prize" on it. Upon removing the cards from the case and spreading them, each one is seen to have a string attached to it. You then replace the cards in the case, leaving the strings draped outside of it, and talk about an old carnival game in which a player pulled a string and won whatever prize was on the attached card.
Offering the spectator a chance to play, a spectator selects and pulls a string. Then, miraculously, the selected card matches the prize card in the envelope - your spectator is a winner!

Athanasius Kircher, Ars Magna Lucis et Umbrae (Rome: Scheus, 1646): ‘The Selenic Shadowdial or the Process of the Lunation’.
We have all read and heard many myths and stories about the Moon. We even know many archetypes associated with her, Gods and Goddeses of East and West that also represent deeper parts and meanings of our individual and collective psyche (Artemis, Kali, Hecate, all the Dark Goddesses, Chandra, etc.).
We also know how the Moon relates to time, to cycles, to transformation, to birth and death, and rebirth and resurrection. We know of her presence and power through the movement of our oceans, of our tides, waning and waxing through eternity. She is the matron of all sea creatures, and as Queen of the Night, she is also matron of night creatures.
She is the other side of the pendulum. In one side the Sun, light, and in the other the Moon, darkness, balancing existence. Reflecting the light back at us.
She relates to our own physical cycles, especially with women and menstruation. In yoga and other ancient philosophies she is associated with energy channels in our subtle bodies: pingala (sun) and ida (moon) channels. The dance of polarities always maintaining balance: masculine/feminine, yang/yin, shiva/shakti.
In more practical terms, the moon represents fertility, resurrection, occult power, immortality and intuition.
Traditionally, the alchemy planet symbols were depicted as seven in number. This is significant as this number corresponds to the seven major organs of the human body, the seven energy centers of the body (chakras), and most interestingly, the seven major metals in alchemy.
In this case, the moon represents one of those metals: Silver, Lesser Work. It reaches its stronger potential when joined with the sun, or Gold in the Greater Work. The moon is a feminine property and alchemists would incorporate it with the sun (gold) to assure balance and equilibrium.
In alchemy, the moon is a facet of silver and silver is symbolic of clarity, purity, and brilliance. Silver is one of the three foundational metals of the Prima Materia and so the silver-personified moon is prominently placed upon the triune throne of transformation.
Silver holds philosophical traits of the feminine persuasion as well as attributes of intuition, inner wisdom, and contemplation.
Silver is a symbol for clarity and strength because this metal withstands abuse, weathering, and even heat. Nevertheless, it can still be molded into desired forms.
Silver had feminine names or was associated with feminine Goddesses: Nanna for the Chaldeans, Artemis (Greek mythology) for the Rosicrucian alchemists, Diana (Roman mythology) for the Reinassance alchemists and the Arabic alchemists called it Manat when working with silver as an alchemical symbol.
In essence, the moon and silver are the representation of feminine energy, intuition, inner wisdom, reflection, cycles, clarity, strength, the occult, mystery, transformation and balance. Fluid energy, ever changing, ever transformed.
Happy last New Moon of this 2017. May we all plant the seeds of future transformation with awareness and love. | 2019-04-24T10:25:09 | https://natarajexpress.com/2017/12/18/the-moon/ |

ALBANY – Gov. Andrew Cuomo is proposing to fund college classes in New York prisons and using public money to do so. Saying a college degree will reduce the likelihood an inmate will return to crime when released, Cuomo announced the new program via a media release on Monday.
The program will offer associate and bachelor’s degree education at 10 prisons, one in each region of the state.
According to Cuomo’s office, New York currently spends $60,000 per year on each prisoner, and it will cost approximately $5,000 per year to educate an inmate. The state will issue a Request for Proposal from qualified educational associations in March.
Since 2007, the state Department of Corrections has partnered with colleges, including Cornell University and Bard College, to offer privately funded degree programs at 22 prisons.
The new plan would need to be approved by the legislature. | 2019-04-19T08:42:36 | http://www.wrfalp.com/cuomo-proposes-using-public-money-to-pay-for-prisoners-college-education/ |
Replacing the UV lamp in your Trojan UV system is essential to maintaining optimal performance.
Ultraviolet light water filters are a highly effective way to protect your water supply from bacteria, viruses, cysts, and many other organisms. Ultraviolet (UV) systems use a specialized UV lamp that produces high quantities of damaging ultraviolet light. Any organisms passing by the light are destroyed. Ultraviolet systems do not add any dangerous chemicals to the water and are very easy to install and maintain.
Big Brand Water Filter UV lamps are made in the USA. Original OEM lamps are often made overseas. USA made is your assurance of quality. All Big Brand Water Filter UV lamps, quartz sleeve and accessories are USA made and built to Big Brand Water Filter•s stringent standards are guaranteed to meet original equipment specifications. Some UV manufacturers may tell you that using genuine Big Brand Water Filter UV lamps voids the warranty on the equipment. It is illegal for them to force you to buy their lamps in order to maintain a warranty. It is a violation of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. | 2019-04-23T08:41:32 | http://www.bigbrandwater.com/trojanpro30uvlamp.html |
1) Establishes Trust: When people visit your website, they have no idea who you are. As far as they're concerned you might be some evil person lying in wait, just trying to get your hands on their credit card number so you can run up national debt. The media is partially to blame for this unfounded fear, but you need to be aware it exists and get those visitors to trust you in order to turn them into paying customers. Publishing an ezine helps to establish you as a reputable business dealer and over time, inspires trust.
2) Brings Visitors Back: Statistics show a customer needs to see your advertising message six or seven times before making a purchase. But how do you get a casual browser to come back? When someone signs up for your ezine, mailing itself will serve as a reminder to to revisit again and again, eventually turning your subscribers into paying customers.
3) Establishes You as an Expert; Builds Brand Loyalty: Just because you're in business on web, does that really mean you know what you're talking about? By publishing a newsletter and writing your own articles, subscribers will come to see you as an expert in your field. This and familiarity they feel from reading your newsletter will reinforce brand loyalty to your site, turning many of your current subscribers into future customers.
4)Keeps Current & Potential Customers Up to Date on New Products & Services: We all add on to our current list of products and services on a regular basis. Pricing may change, we may add new sections of interest to our websites, etc. Your publications allow you to share this important information with current and potential customers keeping them up to date and possibly bringing them back for a new sale. Nothing is worse then having a client tell you he went to one of your competitors because he didn't know you offered that same service or product.
For three weeks as I was putting out my weekly newsletter, I saw a promotion on log-in screen at my list host, ListBot Gold, suggesting I could upgrade from Listbot Gold to a new bCentral service being launched called ListBuilder. It would give me opportunity to gather more demographic info from subscribers and provide ability to send HTML email to those who choose it on subscribing.
I'd been wanting to be able to provide advertisers a better picture of my subscriber base to garner more advertising for Reading List. I was anxious to try it after considering idea, so second week I saw promotion on log- in screen at ListBot, I took bait and clicked "Upgrade Free" link. The greeting properly warned me that switching over now could delay delivery of my newsletter for a time while migration of list took place. Oh well, I'm on Sunday night deadline for my Monday a.m. delivery time, so I put it off another week.
Next week I checked in to ListBot a couple of days early to upgrade and allow "migration time" of list. I went through online set-up and was glad to see that list had been moved to ListBuilder in short order and was ready to go by mailing time a full day before next Reading List was due to go out. I updated subscribe links on over 100 pages of my site to reflect new sign-up boxes offered by ListBuilder and had a twinge of nervousness while thinking, "What if I don't like this new service and way it works? I've just cost myself some valuable time and will have to switch back to ListBot links."
I knew that I could "restore" my list after deleting it because I had seen that link at ListBot for years while sending out my newsletter. "Your list can always be restored later if you change your mind." So I continued, sent out first issue through ListBuilder and woke up Monday morning to another twinge of doubt. Should I have downloaded my subscriber list before migrating in case of a problem? Damn, I should have thought of that.
Seems there was no problem as I received my own copy of Reading List, but I didn't receive usual spate of autoresponder messages telling me that people were out of office temporarily or that they had received my message. I quickly went to public archive for my list at ListBot and checked to find it . . . "DELETED!"
Full scale panic set it and I quickly logged in to ListBuilder to see that my archives had been moved successfully there and managed to calm my adrenalin rush after a few minutes of hyperventilating. I looked for a way to view archive without logging in as I'd posted links on my site to public archive of ListBot for Reading List. They're all broken now!
More changes to my site and searching for archive links throughout my site! Damn! After spending next full week copying my archive from new ListBuilder PRIVATE list owner archive, tediously cutting and pasting to my own site all of previous issues and finally changing remaining links on my site to reflect hosting of my own archive, I sighed relief. It was over.
But, no, a new panic set in to my tired mind. What if email subscribe link that I had promoted for two full years in my articles sent to other lists for distribution had stopped working as well?! I sent a test email and found to my immediate dismay that new subscribers to Reading List were getting terse message, "List Cancelled, Sorry, mail is not processed for lists that are cancelled." | 2019-04-19T02:48:40 | http://improvehomelife.com/7_Reasons_Why_You_Should_be_Publishing_an_Ezine-24395.htm |
Davide Scaramuzza Autonomous quadrotors will soon play a major role in search-and-rescue and remote-inspection missions, where a fast response is crucial. Quadrotors have the potential to navigate quickly through unstructured environments, enter and exit buildings through narrow gaps, and fly through collapsed buildings. However, their speed and maneuverability are still far from those of birds. Indeed, agile navigation through unknown, indoor environments poses a number of challenges for robotics research in terms of perception, state estimation, planning, and control. In this talk, I will show that active vision is crucial in order to plan trajectories that improve the quality of perception. Also, I will talk about our recent results on event based vision to enable low latency sensory motor control and navigation in low light and high dynamic environment, where traditional vision sensor fail.
Davide Scaramuzza (born in 1980, Italian) is Tenured Associate Professor of Robotics and Perception at both departments of Informatics (University of Zurich) and Neuroinformatics (ETH Zurich and University of Zurich), where he does research at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, and neuroscience. He did his PhD in robotics and computer vision at ETH Zurich (with Roland Siegwart) and a postdoc at the University of Pennsylvania (with Vijay Kumar and Kostas Daniilidis). From 2009 to 2012, he led the European project sFly, which introduced the PX4 autopilot and pioneered visual-SLAM–based autonomous navigation of micro drones. For his research contributions, he was awarded the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society Early Career Award, Misha Mahowald Neuromorphic Engineering Award, the SNSF-ERC Starting Grant (equivalent to NSF Career Award), a Google Research Award, the European Young Researcher Award, and several conference paper awards. He coauthored the book “Introduction to Autonomous Mobile Robots” (published by MIT Press) and more than 100 papers on robotics and perception. In 2015, he cofounded a venture, called Zurich-Eye, dedicated to the commercialization of visual-inertial navigation solutions for mobile robots, which later became Facebook-Oculus VR Switzerland. He was also the strategic advisor of Dacuda, an ETH spinoff dedicated to inside-out VR solutions, which later became Magic Leap Zurich. Many aspects of his research have been prominently featured in the popular press, such as Discovery Channel, BBC, IEEE Spectrum, MIT Technology Review Magazine. Furthermore, I was invited to speak at TEDxZurich. | 2019-04-25T02:40:15 | http://ee.princeton.edu/events/autonomous-agile-vision-controlled-drones-frame-event-vision |

On the heels of last week’s heartbreaking events nationwide — in Baton Rouge, Minneapolis and Dallas —I’ve been reading philosopher and novelist Rebecca Newberger Goldstein’s book, Plato at the Googleplex: Why Plato Won’t Go Away.
The question that preoccupied the ancient Greeks, Goldstein observes, is one that preoccupies us today, too — and maybe most especially today: What makes a human life matter? That is the question.
And I suspect the will to matter is actually more important than the will to believe, and actually precedes questions of belief as an existential condition for believing in the love of God. We need to know our life matters in order to believe in the love of God. In other words, in the absence of the assurance that we matter, it is hard to believe in or sustain a belief in the love of God.
So while “mattering” is a belonging concern, more fundamentally, it’s a justice concern that gives voice to our deepest existential wondering about what makes a human life (and, closer to home, our own life) matter. As such, it should precede political or religious beliefs and allegiances also. | 2019-04-21T02:40:31 | https://www.beliefnet.com/columnists/fellowshipofsaintsandsinners/2016/07/the-will-to-matter.html |
Applicant requests that I stay, pending consideration of his petition for writ of certiorari, the order of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit committing him for civil contempt. This petition arises out of a grand jury investigation currently being conducted in the District of Oregon. According to the petition, the grand jury is investigating an allegedly fraudulent funding scheme involving Allstates Funding, Inc., of which applicant is president. Pursuant to a subpoena duces tecum, applicant appeared before the grand jury and refused to answer questions regarding corporate records maintained by Allstates Funding on the ground that he might incriminate himself. The United States District Court for the District of Oregon ruled that applicant could not invoke his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination with regard to the nature of records that were maintained by Allstates Funding. A unanimous Court of Appeals panel affirmed, noting that "[t]he privilege against compulsory self-incrimination protects against real dangers, not remote and speculative possibilities."
Applicant claims that if he testifies regarding the existence [440 U.S. 1308 , 1309] of corporate records he confronts a Hobson's choice which will inevitably result in self-incrimination.
"[I]f the Government learns from the testimony of Petitioner in response to question number seven, and its various subparts, that no corporate records were ever maintained in the first instance, the Petitioner will have provided the government with very strong circumstantial evidence of criminal intent and wrongdoing in his connection with the corporation. By the same token, if the Petitioner testifies that certain records that have not been produced under subpena were in fact maintained, the Petitioner will have provided the government with equally strong circumstantial evidence of criminal intent and consciousness of criminal wrongdoing by their likely destruction or surrepticious [sic ] transfer to third parties ." Pet. for Cert. 8-9.
Applicant places his principal reliance on Curcio v. United States, 354 U.S. 118 (1957). In Curcio this Court held that the contempt sanction cannot be used to compel a custodian of records to disclose the whereabouts of books and records which he has failed to produce if he claims that disclosure of their location will incriminate him. The Curcio Court recognized that the privilege does not extend to all oral testimony about the records. Certainly the custodian can be compelled to "identify documents already produced," id., at 125, 77 S.Ct. at 1150, for the touchstone for evaluating the appropriateness of the privilege must be the "incriminating tendency of the disclosure." Wilson v. United States, 221 U.S. 361, 379 , 543 (1911). The Ninth Circuit relied on Zicarelli v. New Jersey Investigation Comm'n, 406 U.S. 472, 478 , 1674 (1972), for the proposition that the self-incrimination privilege " protects against real dangers, not remote and speculative possibilities." A court contemplating a contempt citation must look to circumstances and context and gauge whether there is a real possibility that a responsive answer will incriminate the witness. [440 U.S. 1308 , 1310] Given the very general nature of the inquiry in this case-a description of the type of records kept by the corporation *-I think that the courts below properly struck the balance and that it is accordingly unlikely that four Members of this Court will vote to grant certiorari. The application for stay of the order of commitment is denied.
[ Footnote * ] The petition does not relate the precise wording of the question and to that extent is deficient under this Court's Rule 23. | 2019-04-22T11:04:11 | https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supreme-court/440/1308.html |
Anxiety disorders affect approximately one third of children and adults in the United States, causing a significant burden to the individual and society. Attention bias towards threat is the tendency to systematically attend to threatening cues in the environment and it may play a crucial role in the emergence and maintenance of anxiety. A growing number of studies suggest that individuals with high trait or clinical anxiety show a heightened attention bias to threat, making it an important marker of anxiety. Moreover, experimental interventions have found that manipulating the levels of attention bias consequently reduced levels of anxiety and sensitivity to stress, suggesting that such interventions could be used for preventive or therapeutic purposes. However, recent studies have reported mixed findings. This inconsistency complicates the interpretation of attention bias to threat as a marker of anxiety, as well as its potential as an effective intervention. Importantly, this variability in the findings is not considered to represent “noise,” but meaningful individual differences in how anxiety and attention bias manifest. The goal of the current dissertation was to better characterize these individual differences. This goal was accomplished by performing three separate studies that together addressed two outstanding issues of the current attention bias literature. The first was to study attention bias and its relation to anxiety from a developmental approach as most empirical investigations and theoretical models of attention bias lack a developmental perspective. The other major outstanding issue in the current attention bias literature is that the mechanisms behind attention bias are not well understood. The present dissertation investigated the mechanisms of attention bias by using several methods. Specifically, these studies employed multiple attention bias tasks, measured eye movement, assesed neural correlates, and evaluated the impact of a theoretically relevant congnitive process (i.e., effortful control). The results from the current dissertation suggest that: 1) it is important to consider cross-task attention bias convergence as this may index important individual characteristics such as fearful temperament and/or anxiety; 2) Attention bias can be captured during infancy and that meaningful individual differences in attention bias exist from early in development such as relations with known risk factors for anxiety; 3) other cognitive functions like effortful control likely play an important role in the relations between attention bias, fearful temperament, and anxiety. More specifically, that in early childhood, effortful control likely serves as a protective factor rather than a risk factor. Implications of these findings, limitations, as well as future directions are discussed in this dissertation. | 2019-04-18T21:42:30 | https://etda.libraries.psu.edu/catalog/13759sum260 |

An under-fire NHS trust that failed to investigate hundreds of deaths knew about health and safety failings four years ago, the BBC can reveal.
Mike Holder, who was employed by Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust, said record keeping was “haphazard”.
He said senior staff at the mental health trust were told safety failings could be breaking the law.
Mr Holder, a chartered health and safety practitioner, was employed as the interim head of health and safety at the trust in November 2011.
He said: “They didn’t see how health and safety would apply to caring for the people in their care.
“I think their record keeping in general was very, very haphazard.
In his resignation letter, seen by the BBC, Mr Holder wrote “existing safety management systems are dysfunctional” when he left in February 2012.
He was asked to set out his findings in more detail and sent a 13-page report.
He claimed some incidents were not reported, which was “a criminal offence which you are obliged to address” and safeguarding incidents that were reported were “often incorrectly graded, downgraded by administrators or closed down without the completion of action plans”.
Mr Holder said: “When I looked at some incidents I found they hadn’t been reported.
An independent report in December found the trust had failed to properly investigate hundreds of deaths of patients with mental health problems and learning disabilities over a four-year period.
Connor Sparrowhawk, an 18-year-old with learning difficulties, drowned in a bath at a Southern Health building in Oxford in 2013 and the inquest into his death prompted NHS England to commission the report.
His mother Sara Ryan has described the trust’s leadership as “rotten” and called for resignations.
In a response to the BBC Ms Percy said: “We are constantly striving to find ways to do things better and challenging ourselves to improve services across the whole organisation, as in any NHS Trust.
“All of the issues raised in the memorandum sent more than four years ago were looked into and addressed.
Southern Health is one of the country’s largest mental health trusts, covering Hampshire, Dorset, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire and providing services to about 45,000 people. | 2019-04-23T00:23:40 | https://sharmilachowdhury.com/2016/01/22/ex-southern-health-worker-warned-bosses-of-safety-failings/ |

1. A trembling or shaking.
2. Irregular, rapid beating or pulsation of the heart.
1. the act of palpitating.
2. an unusually or abnormally rapid or violent beating of the heart.
2. palpitation - a shaky motion; "the shaking of his fingers as he lit his pipe"
n. palpitación, latido; pulsación, aleteo rápido asociado con irregularidades del ritmo cardíaco.
I fancied this morning, when I was lying here alone, that there was something almost like a palpitation - a quicker beat.
As a result I awoke with mouth parched and dry, with a slight heaviness of head, and with a mild nervous palpitation in the stomach.
Indeed, I always get something like a palpitation of the heart just before the priest utters those final fateful words, "I declare you man and-- wife.
They were sombre blues, opaque like a delicately carved bowl in lapis lazuli, and yet with a quivering lustre that suggested the palpitation of mysterious life; there were purples, horrible like raw and putrid flesh, and yet with a glowing, sensual passion that called up vague memories of the Roman Empire of Heliogabalus; there were reds, shrill like the berries of holly -- one thought of Christmas in England, and the snow, the good cheer, and the pleasure of children -- and yet by some magic softened till they had the swooning tenderness of a dove's breast; there were deep yellows that died with an unnatural passion into a green as fragrant as the spring and as pure as the sparkling water of a mountain brook.
Casaubon, who had risen early complaining of palpitation, was in the library giving audience to his curate Mr.
Fear and joy may both cause cardiac palpitation, but in one case we find high tonus of the skeletal muscles, in the other case relaxation and the general sense of weakness.
Presently, as I went on, still gaining velocity, the palpitation of night and day merged into one continuous greyness; the sky took on a wonderful deepness of blue, a splendid luminous color like that of early twilight; the jerking sun became a streak of fire, a brilliant arch, in space; the moon a fainter fluctuating band; and I could see nothing of the stars, save now and then a brighter circle flickering in the blue.
said Planchet, with a horrible palpitation of the heart.
They come back to me now almost with the palpitation they caused, the successive feelings that accompanied my consciousness that as the door of the room closed behind me I was really face to face with the Juliana of some of Aspern's most exquisite and most renowned lyrics.
Sometimes it was a palpitation, sometimes a flutter; sometimes it was a sort of gasp or gurgle.
He read it with a sickening palpitation of his heart, but gave no outward sign of surprise.
Cornelius put his hand on his heart, to repress as it were its violent palpitation, and listened. | 2019-04-26T08:54:20 | http://www.thefreedictionary.com/palpitation |
Today I picked up an 18-month old 2015 Kawasaki ER-6f ABS. Although I had considered this bike as a 'new bike' purchase when I was working, once I'd retired in December 2015 I thought that once the time came to trade-in my Honda Forza 300 scooter (bought specifically for commuting initially) I would probably go down the 'used bike' route. In the last couple of months I'd sort of narrowed my choice down to a Honda VRF800 V-Tec or a Yamaha XJ600 Diversion (although briefly a Honda CBR600F came in for consideration).
On the morning of setting off to view two Hondas I chanced upon this Kawasaki at my local dealer by taking a last-minute check for a bargain on Alf's Motorcycles of Worthing's website.
The deal was done and, as the bike had only done 473 miles, it was due it's 1st service which by and large is just getting rid of the thinner running-in oil and replacing it with the real stuff followed by a general check to see nothing has fallen off or worked loose. As the dealer was short of staff I had to wait a week until today to pick it up.
It was raining just as it has virtually every time I've taken a new (to me) bike home.
Initial signs are very good. I like the riding position - sporty but not MotoGP-replica sporty. My knees appreciate that. It also wasn't too difficult to mount the bike - it's a long time since a rode a motorcycle with an 800mm seat height. I was a bit concerned about it when I took a test-ride last week.
So far nothing has shown to be to be a concern although I will miss not having a centre-stand. I've just ordered an Abba bike stand to aid with minor fettling like chain maintenance and cleaning. I just don't think you can do a good job with the bike leaning towards you.
A gear indicator would have been nice too. I can buy one for £98.99 but it's unlikely I'll bother.
I don't take pillions - never have - so I've ordered a seat cowl too. I travel very light when touring. I can fit four day's-worth of kit into a 30 litre drybag so I have a decision to make as to whether to buy Kreiga US bags (I'll have to save up for these next year) or go down the cheaper route of packing my clothes into my 15-year old Kreiga R35 rucksack and buy a Givi tank bag for carrying washkit, electronics and stuff I need to hand like passports & ferry tickets.
I'll add a full review once I've put a few miles under my bike but until then here's a few pictures.
I hope to pass my test this year and get my full licence. I'm learning on a er6n which I'm enjoying and the acceleration is surprisingly gentle - no nasty surprises! When I move up to a bigger bike, I hope to travel and at the moment favour the protection of the fairing and windscreen that the er6f offers. They are great looking bikes too and have had good reviews. They will last if looked after and the older models fit my limited budget too.
They are fine bikes aren't they. I've put about 150 miles on mine in the first week mainly through giving her short blasts around the lanes of the South Downs. This is a good test for a bike as I feel you can't go full-on around here (unless you are tired of living). There are many hazards to watch out for like farm vehicles and non-attentive drivers that keep you focused. I'm not missing a gear indicator as much as I initially thought I would but I do at times attempt to find an extra gear in top at around 4800rpm (60-65mph) but it's not a major issue and most likely me getting used to the sound and feel of the engine. I've not had to fill her up yet (I have 2 bars on the guage to go) so will work out the mpg after the 2nd refuel by using the Fuelly.com app.
The bike is proving comfortable after 45 minutes or so but I will need to test her on a longer run if I'm going to go touring. You can't tell by a dealer test run or hopping down to the shops.
I notice you are thinking of going touring once you pass your test. Let me know if there is any advice you might need as I do go across the channel quite a bit now by both ferry and Eurotunnel. I travel light.
By for now, let me know how the test goes. | 2019-04-25T14:40:40 | http://bikesandtravels.com/biker.aspx?ride=1065 |
If you met Thorlakson out on the trails, or on a Wednesday night Bike Club ride, you’d be surprised to hear that she ever unraveled. She doesn’t seem the type.
Bike Club is Bree’s other baby. “It’s changed my life,” she says.
“I probably should have sought help then,” she notes, drily.
Spending time in the forest was curative so she started social mountain bike rides for women.
Four years on, Thorlakson has overseen Bike Club’s evolution from “a couple of moms trying to get back in shape, vent about their problems and have a drink afterwards” into “a pretty dedicated group of women” including many people brand-new to town who find an instant community. | 2019-04-24T07:53:48 | https://thewellnessalmanac.com/2016/10/11/the-first-rule-of-bike-club-is-tell-everyone/ |

LANCASTER, N.Y. (January 24, 2018) – Lancaster National Speedway & Dragway is preparing for its 59th consecutive season of operation, and with a new season comes new opportunities. LNS&D has affordable and unique opportunities for marketing partners during the 2018 campaign. We don’t just take your money and put up a sign, we actually activate and make you feel part of the action.
The last three years at Lancaster National Speedway & Dragway have seen renewed enthusiasm within both racing programs. A commitment by management to revive the facility through a series of capital improvements has inspired the stock car and drag racing communities to support LNS&D. As a result, car counts have increased for both programs, fans have returned on the grandstand side and local and national companies have come on board.
There are several attractive options for potential marketing partners with different sponsorship packages designed to fit a variety of budgets. Race night and event sponsors can enjoy their evening in one of our VIP suites with private seating, bathrooms, refrigerator and hostess service. That also includes having their company’s name attached to all print, TV and radio marketing for the year or individual event, on-site billboards with additional exposure and other perks are available.
One of the most attractive features of advertising at Lancaster National Speedway & Dragway is its proximity to the New York State Thruway. More than 3.4 million cars pass by the facility on an annual basis allowing partners to reach a variety of potential customers. LNS&D also has a variety of additional signage options that reach the 150,000 race fans that come through our gates during the season.
In other words, if your company wants to be part of the continued growth of Lancaster and be seen on the scene of WNY’s No. 1 Motorsports Facility, then we are here to help you achieve that goal. No involvement is too small, but the commitment to our partners is big.
For more information contact Tim Packman, Track President, at [email protected] soon as opportunities and signage are currently being negotiated for the 2018 season. | 2019-04-18T18:16:34 | https://www.lancasternationalspeedway.com/marketing-opportunities-available-2018-season-lancaster/ |
Thoughts about the Bumblebee trailer – and yes, the thoughts are positive | It's A Stampede!
Earlier today, the first official trailer for Transformers spin-off movie, Bumblebee landed. If you missed the trailer, don’t worry you can check it out below.
Having watched the trailer myself I must admit I was pleasantly surprised. In fact, based on this trailer I’m more interested in this movie now than I have been at any point during its development.
I’ve said this before on the blog and I’ll say it again: I’m not a fan of Paramount’s Transformers film franchise.
I didn’t mind the first entry back in 2007, but every new movie since has bored me beyond belief. To date, I’ve still not watched the fifth movie – The Last Knight (2017) – and I’m not sure I ever will. Do I feel like I’m missing out by not watching it? No.
The Last Knight could be a masterpiece of cinema for all I know, but the previous entries in the Transformers franchise have killed my desire to invest any more time in the series. Or at least, that’s what I thought.
This morning, while watching the trailer for Bumblebee, I found myself warming to the footage on display. This evening, my interest has perked up even further with the arrival of the first official poster.
It’s not clear if Bumblebee will be the final entry in the current series of TF movies or the first part of a soft reboot, but whatever Bumblebee is, I’m actually interested. Sure, this interest might drop off again when the second trailer gets released between now and Christmas, but for the moment I’m willing to give this movie a moment of my time.
Well, putting aside the ’80s setting and the appearance of Generation 1 Starscream – two elements that fill me with excitement – the trailer actually made me feel like there was a genuine connection between Bumblebee and the lead character, Charlie Watson (Hailee Steinfeld).
With past Transformers movies I’ve found it really difficult to connect with the characters – both human and robot. Too much bashing and crashing and too many wooden characters alienated me, but the trailer feels like it has heart. That poster above makes me feel like this movie has heart too.
Now, all this could have something to do with the change in director – Travis Knight is taking over from Michael Bay – or it could simply be clever editing for the trailer and a talented designer on poster duties. Truth is, I won’t know until the movie comes out at the end of the year.
This new movie is clearly not a huge departure from the established and very profitable Transformers franchise, however, it might have had enough tweaks to win back lapsed audiences and give the series a new focus. At the very least, for now I’m going to say I’m on board – and that’s something I never thought I’d say.
The trailer looks good. It feels like a transformer you could warm to.
Yeah. There seems to be a positive vibe about this film. | 2019-04-21T11:12:31 | https://itsastampede.com/2018/06/05/thoughts-about-the-bumblebee-trailer-and-yes-the-thoughts-are-positive/ |
The debhelper compatibility version used by this package is marked as experimental by the debhelper developer. You should consider using a stable compatibility version instead.
The compatibility version can be set by specifying debhelper-compat (= 12) in your package's Build-Depends, by the legacy debian/compat file or even by setting and exporting DH_COMPAT in debian/rules. If it is not set in either place, debhelper defaults to the deprecated compatibility version 1. | 2019-04-23T02:32:09 | https://lintian.debian.org/tags/package-uses-experimental-debhelper-compat-version.html |
grace is a gift we cannot earn: it’s all about God acting first.
Our kingdom focus means that our denomination has been active in some unique kingdom-building activities. Avoiding any division between sacred and secular, we encourage endeavors in any sphere of human activity: art, media, publishing, law, education, labor relations, caregiving, agriculture, business, social justice, and politics. No area of human enterprise is exempt. CRC communities have established Christian schools from preschool to graduate school—not to protect students from the world but to give them the tools to engage any aspect of culture from the perspective of God’s kingdom.?After all, it’s God’s world.
God is also referred to as the Trinity.
The Trinity is the three person partnership of the Godhead, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The Father is generally seen as our Creator and Sustainer.
The Son is generally seen as responsible for our salvation.
The Holy Spirit is generally seen as our comforter, encourager, and motivator, and lives in our hearts.
The Bible is the Word of God and God reveals himself and the way of salvation throughout the Bible. The Holy Spirit inspired men to write down the words of the Bible and guided them as they wrote.
God commands, invites, and encourages followers of Christ to spend time on a regular basis reading His Word and studying it with others in the church. What are your normal patterns for interaction with God’s Word?
God also makes himself known to us through prayer. Jesus taught the disciples to pray with the Lord’s Prayer. God also commands, invites, and encourages followers of His Son Jesus to pray often. The Apostle Paul encourages believers to pray always, giving thanks to God for everything. What is your normal pattern for communicating with God in prayer?
Jesus Christ was and is the Son of God.
He died on the cross for the sins of the world and was raised to life to win the victory over the devil and evil in the world. Now He reigns over the world at the right hand of God. He is my personal Savior because he died for my sins, and has secured the victory over evil in my life.
Jesus Christ was both fully God and fully man. We do not understand this mystery, but realize that it was necessary for one without sin to pay the price for those who have sinned. Only God’s Son could live a live without sin.
“Christ had no sin, but God made him become sin so that in Christ we could become right with God” (IICor. 5:21 NCV).
A transgression of God’s law. Living outside of God’s will. Disobedience to the teachings of Scripture and Christ.
Sin breaks our relationship with God. Adam, our forefather, was the first to sin and break his relationship with God. We inherit Adam’s sinful nature and are born inclined to hate God and our neighbor. Scripture teaches that “all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God” (Romans 6:23). Therefore, everyone is guilty of sin and deserving of God’s punishment on sin. The only way to be relieved of our guilt is to follow Jesus, live for him, put our faith in him, and he will bear the punishment for our guilt on the cross.
Believing in Jesus is the only way to be saved from eternal death, and also from a meaningless life on earth. We are not saved because of anything that we do ourselves, but because what God has done for us in Christ.
It is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we are saved.
Grace is best understood as a gift. God acts toward us in a favorable way even though we don’t deserve it. Another way to understand grace is to remember one word for each letter in the word. This way, grace can be defined as God’s Riches At Christ Expense.
There are two sacraments. They are holy signs and seals for us to see. They were instituted by God so that by our use of them he might make us understand more clearly the promise of the gospel, and might put his seal on that promise. And this is God’s gospel promise: to forgive our sins and give us eternal life by grace alone because of Christ’s one sacrifice finished on the cross (Heidelberg Q&A 66).
The two sacraments are, Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
Becoming a member of the catholic or worldwide church of Christ contains certain privileges and responsibilities.
The privileges include partaking in the Lord’s Supper, and also becoming a part of God’s family and community of believers. This community of believers commits themselves to care for you, pray for you, and grow with you in your knowledge of God. They also vow themselves to encourage you in your faith and hold you accountable to the commitment you make.
of submitting yourself the community and offering your gifts in service to the church and the people of God and the world. God has given gifts to all of his people to be used for the building up of the body of Christ and to spread the good news of life in Jesus Christ.
When you become part of the Christian Reformed Church in North America, you become part of a church that traces its roots back to Pentecost. At Pentecost, God sent his Holy Spirit to the followers of Christ to comfort them, encourage them, and teach them the ways of God.
3. Mankind is justified or made right with God only through faith (Ephesian 2:8-10).
4. God is sovereign. That is, God has created the world and is in control of everything.
Church of Christ called Reformed Churches.
The Heidelberg Catechism which explains the way of salvation and discusses the Apostles Creed, the Ten Commandments, the Lord’s Prayer, and the sacraments.
The first question and answer of the Heidelberg Catechism have been cherished by believers for centuries as a statement of faith.
The Canons of Dordt, which are a defense of the Reformed understanding of the way of salvation.
The Belgic Confession explains what the Reformed churches believed during the 1500’s and still adhere to today. | 2019-04-26T14:11:32 | http://www.immanuelcrc.com/what-we-believe/?mobileOn=0 |
There are a multitude of professional paralegal associations and organizations. It is generally looked upon favorably for a paralegal to be associated with at least one of these organizations. The following provides a synopsis of the most popular nationally-known organizations. Many states have their own paralegal organizations.
The American Bar Association (ABA) is the longest-standing and most well known voluntary legal organization in the United States. The ABA provides a standard of professional and ethical practices for the legal profession. The ABA also bestows accreditation to those programs and educational facilities that meet rigid qualifications.
The ABA is typically seen as an elite group. Members of the ABA or those who have a degree from an ABA-accredited school are seen as legitimate and valuable. The ABA does not provide education but does provide resources to approved facilities, schools, and courses. Those seeking more information on the ABA and its effect on paralegals can visit the ABA website.
The National Association of Legal Assistants (NALA) is also a largely-recognized organization throughout the United States. NALA provides a certification program in conjunction with ABA standards. This organization is the only one to offer the actual title of a certified paralegal (CP). In order to become certified through NALA, participants must meet strict eligibility requirements.
The National Federation of Paralegal Associations (NFPA) offers the title of a registered paralegal (RP) through sitting and passing their Paralegal Advanced Competency Exam (PACE). Similar to the NALA exam, the PACE exam, given by NFPA, has strict requirements that must be met just to sit for it. NFPA is also developing another paralegal competency exam for those who do not qualify to sit for the PACE. This exam will not offer a registered paralegal title but will offer one of a slightly lower caliber.
The National Paralegal Association (NPA) is also an international organization offering numerous resources to paralegals across the globe. This organization offers information to those seeking paralegal education as well as those already employed as a paralegal. NPA has a plethora of information available to individuals and companies seriously seeking it.
Paralegals and their employers may want to explore professional organizations within their state. These associations can be a great asset to obtaining the latest paralegal news within the specified state. Many paralegals are members of both a national organization and one within their own state. | 2019-04-25T08:15:35 | http://www.paralegalcertificationhelp.com/professional-paralegal-associations-and-organizations.html |

Tonight on the opening night of “Batman: The Dark Knight Rises”, I wish I had a dark superhero around to save me from the monotony and tedium of my normal life. As I sit here trying to make a Girl Scout ‘Sit-Upon’ for my youngest daughter’s Day Camp, I fantasize of a dark, brooding distraction. I grumble as I fight off a crazed cat who is tying herself up in the yarn of this evil project and imagine being swept off my feet by a character of great complexity. Fortunately, my ‘Knight’ has arrived. Let me introduce you to the 2010 Borsao Garnacha.
This lovely blend of 80% Garnacha and 20% Tempranillo is one of the most welcome surprises I’ve encountered this summer. One wouldn’t think you could find such fine wine complexity in a screw cap wine…ESPECIALLY for under $10…but don’t be fooled by it’s outer appearance. It’s alter ego is something spectacular.
Big, bold, and inky black in the glass. An intoxicating nose of blackberry, pepper, and wet stone are followed up by blackberry, plum, slate, and pepper on the tongue. A medium to full-bodied mouthfeel and a wonderful balance make this the perfect ‘go-to’ red for steaks and grilled meats. It can dance as easily with a strip steak as it could with ribs, brisket, or burgers and brats. I can’t give this enough praise because a wine like this would normally cost 2-3x it’s cost. Under $10, you would be foolish not to stock up on this incredible value wine. | 2019-04-22T00:43:46 | https://corkedcowgirl.com/2012/07/20/the-spanish-dark-knight-rises-2010-borsao-garnacha/?share=google-plus-1 |
What Are The Duties Of A Dental Hygienist?
When you come in for your preventive dental hygiene visit, you are typically greeted by your dental hygienist, who is an integral part of your dental health team. During a dental visit, your dental hygienist will take the time not only to assess and treat your dental care needs, but will also get to know you as a person. Our goal is for all of our patients to feel like a part of the WWDC family.
At Walla Walla Dental Care, our hygienists are highly educated and licensed professionals who are there to provide gentle and well-skilled care. We only invite the best of the best to join our team!

We have power!!!!!!!!! No cable, Internet or phone. But we have power!!!!! Yippee!!!! We were really starting to lose our minds. Our brains were getting numb with boredom. Now the kids are happily watching a DVD on the TV and we're charging up all of the devises.
With no Internet I'm posting again today from my phone. Not fun, but doable.
In other news... I had 4 fillings replaced today. They were 22 year old silver fillings that decided they had had enough. 7 shots of novocaine and an hour in the chair later I have new pearly white fillings. Fillings and a completely numb mouth and face. Talking this afternoon has been loads of fun. I've been having visions of Bill Cosby's comedy skit about visiting the dentist. If you know what I'm talking about you can imagine how my afternoon was. If you don't know... maybe it's on YouTube.
Thankfully it's starting to wear off and I'm ready to go out for dinner. | 2019-04-21T02:50:43 | https://amadisonmom.net/blog/nablopomo-day-2-numb |

In SAP you could now add a sperate business address or home address to this contact person. These include different fields for address and contact data.
We need the possibility to replicate these business addresses of contact person to C4C and vice versa. Because someteimes a contact person doesn't work at address of customer but has other business address, own office etc.
We couldn't find something in the CPI mapping and also couldn't find anything in the web or in SAP documentation. That's strange because I guess this is common case when working with SAP system.
In C4C for this case first we have to add new customer business adress and after that we can assign it to contact person. We can also assign new private addresses.
But is there any way to handle divergent addresses for contact person in SAP<->C4C replication?
As of now, we are not having the replication of personal address of Contact Persons as a part of C4C ERP standard integration.
As of now, we do not have this possibility in C4C and so replication of different office addresses for contact persons is not supported. | 2019-04-22T12:02:16 | https://answers.sap.com/questions/388089/c4c-replicate-business-home-address-of-contact-per.html |

It offers a fabulous food selection and boasts a great location right in the heart of the city.

With plenty of nooks and crannies for intimate dining, The Griffin Inn is the ideal place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy a romantic interlude. In fact, The Griffin Inn is the ultimate location for a romantic Bath getaway with its eight beautifully decorated, cosy rooms just upstairs.

Dr. Griesemer does not offer typical testing. Her psychological assessments are focused on understanding personality, feelings, relationships, and maladaptive patterns.
If you are looking for psychological testing to diagnose learning disabilities please call us for referrals: we know excellent providers.
If you are looking for answers to complicated questions, you are in the right place.
Our testing is tailored to you. There is no standard set of tests. No standard report. Everything is individualized.
After meeting you will have a new understanding of your situation. You will leave with a clear idea of where to go next. With a little help -- and a little understanding and undivided attention -- you can find new, efficient ways of getting where you want to go.
Call or email us to schedule an initial interview.
Complete the testing. When it's finished, we'll meet to go over the answers to your questions and give you a plan to tackle the places you are stuck. You'll also get a written letter (in normal person language, not psychology speak) to remind you of what we talked about.
This isn't your typical psychological assessment. This is a process of discovery that will give you insight into why you feel stuck.
What can we do to stop my son's tantrums?
My daughter doesn't want to go to school anymore. Is she sad? Nervous?
Why can't I get going anymore? I just don't want to do anything.
My husband and I fight all the time. I'm tired of it. What's got us stuck?
Why do I keep dating guys who are mean to me?
Want more detail? Let's outline the basic steps to give you an idea of the process.
Initial Interview - This meeting is an hour and a half, and is the chance for you to meet with the assessor to come up with the list of things that are puzzling you. This meeting costs $275 at the time of service. At the end of this session we come up with a game-plan for the remaining testing based upon the questions you have and will give the set price at that time. The fee ranges from $3000 to $5000 depending on what amount of testing we need to do.
Testing Sessions - These are spread out over a few weeks to ensure that we get the best possible understanding of you or your child. We typically meet for two to three hours once a week for several weeks, but will work with your schedule. I take my time to get the best results for you so we know that our answers are right. AND, if you have a kiddo with struggles, our package price ensures that you are not paying by the hour for us to give your child breaks to play and recoup. That's built in. It is typical to spend 8 - 12 hours on testing sessions, and I spend an additional 10 hours scoring and interpreting the data outside of our work together. Additionally, I consult with and involve anyone else that is part of this process of discovery: a spouse, your therapist, a child's teacher, and so on. This is factored into the cost and is not an extra charge.
Testing is not a fast process, but it is thorough and it does give you answers to your questions. Often the full testing process can take 2 - 6 months depending on how many sessions must be scheduled and who else is involved in the process. This is a sharp contrast to testing done at clinics, or traditional sites, that is conducted in one or two days. I don't expect to fully understand you in one day; I need a full picture of you to help you make lasting change.
Discussion of Findings - After completing the testing, and interpreting the results, I will meet with you to discuss the answers to your questions. If you have a therapist, I invite them to be present to discuss the results or I can meet with them separately. We spend an hour and a half together to go over the testing and recommendations. When a child is involved, we will also meet with them at another time to answer the questions that they had.
Written Summary - My summaries are written in easy to understand language, not jargon. Have you ever read a traditional report? Ask to see a sample before working with a psychologist; make sure you will be able to understand what you will be receiving.
I want YOU to understand the results of testing. All the information needed for school accommodations will be included as well; however, our priority is that this information is as useful to you as possible. The written summary is mailed to you a few weeks after we meet to discuss the findings.
Payment - I don't take insurance, but many of our clients submit our detailed receipts for reimbursement once testing is complete. The cost of the initial interview is due at the first testing session ($275). Half of the full price is due at the first testing session and the remainder is due at the discussion session when we discuss findings.
Please note that we DO NOT communicate with insurance companies. Any extra communication that you require to file your receipt outside of my standard itemized receipt we provide will be charged at my hourly rate. | 2019-04-19T21:04:20 | http://www.psychologycenterofaustin.com/testing.html |

HomeSewingDay 1 of my Getting Healthy Journey!
Getting Healthy, Make your own workout clothes. This post may contain affiliate links, please see the end of the post for more information.
Day 1! This was my post work out picture from Monday. I have lost 10 lbs the last few months, but keep rollercoastering up and down in my weight. I lost most of my weight just by eating healthier. The things I struggle with the most dieting is eating food off the kids plates, eating snacks the hubby brings into the house and eating out.
Now that I have lost a few lbs we have joined the gym as a family and I plan to really hit the gym a lot for the next 30 days. Then try to build a manageable schedule after that.
I have a Mom Bod. Strong arms and legs from carrying around my kids, but a weak core. I have a belly, love handles and decent size derriere. If I wear tight fitting clothes, people ask me when my baby is due. I am not pregnant and had my last baby a little over two years ago. Luckily the Free Spirit Tank from Patterns for Pirates helps hide my belly. It is currently my go to work out tank. My capris are also from Patterns for Pirates; I used the FREE Peg Legs Pattern. I took a few inches out of the pattern piece since I’m only 5’0″ tall.
I am hoping to lose enough weight to feel confident enough to wear their Essential Tank to the gym. Who thinks I can get there??

Cloud web hosting is a very popular phrase now. However, only a few understand what it does in reality signify. Most of the website hosting wholesalers speculate fervently about accounts designated as being 'cloud hosting'. Chiefly the cPanel website hosting and cPanel reseller hosting merchandisers. Because of the absolute absence of original marketing views, the cPanel web hosts are simply using fashionable terms, trying to entice more website hosting customers with clever marketing methods.
Be aware of the countless fraudulent statements guaranteeing you 'cloud hosting' solutions, chiefly made by cPanel hosting providers. When a cPanel web hosting supplier arrogantly states that a 'cloud' web hosting solution is being offered, examine whether it's not a mist or a fog first of all. Almost everybody toys with the term 'cloud', ultimately relying on the fact that the bulk of the customers do not understand what it does indeed signify.
Hepsia is an avant-garde cloud web hosting platform linked to a feature-rich easy-to-use website hosting Control Panel. Both, the cloud web hosting solution and the respective web hosting CP are manufactured by ResellersPanel.com - a world-class reseller hosting merchant from year 2003. Sadly, it's a truly unusual thing to discover a web hosting company supplying a cloud web hosting platform on the marketplace. For unfamiliar reasons, Google prefers cPanel-based web hosting wholesalers mostly. That is the reason why we believe it's advisable for those people in search of a web hosting platform to be a little bit more aware of the Hepsia cloud website hosting platform.
Each website hosting service droplet in Hepsia's 'cloud' is tackled by a separate group of web servers, dedicated exclusively to the specific service at hand, sharing out the load produced. Hence, the web hosting CP is being handled by one single set of web servers, which serve the hosting Control Panel exclusively and nothing else. There is another cluster of web servers for the mail, one more for the storage space, another for the backup, one more for the statistics, another for the MySQL databases, one more for the PostgreSQL databases, etc. All these groups of web servers perform as one whole website hosting service, the so-called 'cloud web hosting' service.
We have picked Hepsia as our main hosting platform, so that we can provide top cloud web hosting services to our clients. Every one of our web hosting offers comes packed with the Hepsia Control Panel and all of it's free bonuses. But don't take our word for it, you can go check out for yourself in the control panel demo. | 2019-04-20T14:27:16 | https://www.jahu.net/web-hosting-articles/how-cloud-web-hosting-works/ |

More than two-thirds of households use oil boilers as their main source of heating, but would you know what to do if you encountered a problem or would you be able to identify a problem?
The majority of boiler breakdowns and boiler problems happen during the cold, winter months, when boilers feel the strain as our central heating systems work more to heat our homes during the winter. While some common boiler problems can be addressed without the need to call in a heating engineer, there are others that will require the services of a qualified and experienced professional.
Likely causes can include airlocks and broken diaphragms, failure of motorised valves or problems with the thermostat or low water levels. The best place to start is to check if your boiler is not working because of an issue with boiler pressure or your thermostat.
If you think you may have a broken diaphragm, airlock or valve it may need to be replaced with a new part. We recommend calling out a registered engineer who will be able to efficiently diagnose the problem and replace any broken parts where needed.
A boiler which is leaking water can be caused by a number of issues. You need to ascertain where the leak is coming from to determine the cause.
One of the most common causes is a broken internal component, such as a pump seal or pressure valve. If the leak is coming from the pressure valve it may be that your boiler pressure is too high. If it’s coming from the pump seal, it may have become worn out and need replacing. You may also find your boiler is leaking around the pipes or tank – this can be a result of corrosion or in some cases where the system has not been fitted properly. However, you should never try to fix a leaking gas boiler yourself – always call out a registered engineer, who will be able to diagnose and fix the issue for you.
The pilot light is a small blue flame that’s kept alight to light a larger burner. If this light keeps going out then it may be caused by a broken thermocouple which will stop the gas supply, a draught blowing the pilot light out or a deposit built up in the pilot light.
It is very important to check that there aren’t any issues with the gas supply before trying to reignite the pilot light. If your gas stopcock is on but your boiler isn’t receiving any gas, or if no other gas appliances are working, then you should contact your gas supplier. You can then try relighting the pilot light yourself – ensuring you follow the instructions found in your boiler’s manual.
If none of these things work, you should call out a registered engineer.
It may be time to invest in a new thermostat if it is losing accuracy or turning the heating on/off when it’s not supposed to. It’s worth making a few home checks first though, as sometimes these can be easily overlooked. Check your thermostat to ensure it is in the on position and that it is set to the correct settings as it’s possible that it could have been knocked.
It is also worth considering that your home might be warmer than you think, and a thermostat won’t allow the boiler to heat your home higher than the temperature it has been set at. If this is the case, then try adjusting it until you find the right temperature for you.
If neither of the above apply it is possible that your thermostat may have stopped working or lost accuracy over time, and in this case it is probably time to consider a replacement.
Strange sounds can be caused by a number of factors – air in the system, low water pressure is too low or kettling. Imminent pump failure, particularly in older heating systems, may also be a likely cause for the strange banging noises.
You might be able to determine the type of problem your boiler is having based on the type of noise it is making. For example a noise similar to that of a boiling kettle is usually a result of kettling. Kettling occurs when lime scale or sludge builds up on your boiler’s heat exchange. When these deposits build up in your boiler, they can restrict the flow of water within the heat exchanger. This results in overheating the water, causing it to steam and boil (causing the kettle-like sounds). If your boiler is kettling, it is advisable to call out a registered engineer who will flush out your system to remove the build-up of these deposits and ensure the system is working properly again.
If your radiators aren’t heating up there could be a build-up of sludge or air in the system. If only the bottom of your radiator is getting hot then you might need to bleed the radiator. This is a fairly simple procedure and doesn’t require an engineer but if you don’t feel comfortable doing it then contact a professional.
If certain radiators aren’t getting hot then your radiators could need balancing, which can also be done without the help of an engineer but only if you feel confident doing it. The process involves adjusting the valves on the radiators in your property, to ensure each one is getting sufficient hot water to work efficiently.
If bleeding and balancing your radiators prove futile then you could well have a problem with sludge build up preventing a flow of hot water to the radiators. A professional engineer will remove this build up by chemically cleaning or flushing the system, but this is something that you shouldn’t try yourself.
Remember boilers become less efficient the older they get. If your boiler is more than 15 years old, you may want to consider upgrading to a more efficient model. It is worth stressing the importance of getting your system serviced annually to avoid any future problems with your boiler. An annual boiler service is the best way to keep it in good working order, diagnose problems early and limit costly repairs.
Don’t get caught out in the cold this winter. Use Super Saver Oil’s tips and advice on common boiler issues, to ensure your boiler is working effectively and efficiently and enable you to act appropriately to solve your heating problems. | 2019-04-20T07:08:11 | https://www.supersaveroil.ie/blog/7-important-things-to-know-about-boiler-problems/ |
Muscat: Two people living in Oman have died after contracting the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus (MERS-CoV), according to Oman Observer.
The Ministry of Health earlier announced five people had been diagnosed with the viral disease.
"The patients are receiving necessary medical care at one of the hospitals," said the ministry in a statement.
It urged citizens and residents to comply with the preventive measures to control infection and to practise healthy habits when sneezing or coughing.
Symptoms of coronavirus patients are similar to any other respiratory infection, which include runny nose, cough, sore throat, and sometimes fever, said the ministry.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries announced that coronavirus in cattle and camels were examined and tested negative.
The ministry conducted sampling and follow-up of herds of cattle and camels at the homes of citizens suspected of contracting the disease. Laboratory test results showed the absence of the virus in animals. | 2019-04-21T02:27:52 | http://www.gdnonline.com/Details/483541/Two-people-die-after-contracting-coronavirus |

Aldi has come a long way from the old days of being the “stock up store” — a slogan the grocer used decades ago. We’ve come to really like Aldi’s “premium” lineup of foods, whether it’s in the form of steak, shrimp, or crab. You can do a quality dinner with Aldi food, especially when Aldi rotates in specific items as part of its rotating ALDI Find (Special Buy) lineup.
Aldi’s Valentine’s Day ads bring with them a number of fun food items (and non-food items) that can help you create that perfect Valentine’s Day experience. The past few years, one of the rotating late January / early February offerings has been, not just lobster tails, but a whole lobster.
We couldn’t resist trying this out.
Fremont Fish Market Whole and Raw Maine Lobster is an ALDI Find (Special Buy), which means that it’s only stocked once: when your store runs out, you’ll have to wait, probably until next year. It runs a cheap $9.99 and comes in a pouch, not unlike Aldi’s crab legs. Fremont Fish Market is an Aldi house brand, having been introduced just last year, and appears to be a successor to the Sea Queen label.
The lobster comes in a frozen pouch, which means it’s not fresh lobster … although there is research to suggest that there isn’t much, if any, taste difference between frozen and fresh lobster. The packaging includes a notice from the Marine Stewardship Council that it is both “wild caught” and “certified sustainable seafood,” noting that it was caught by a pot in FAO 21 of the Northwest Atlantic. The packaging also puts the lobster’s weight at 18 ounces: 1 pound, 2 ounces.
The package lists three cooking methods: boiling, grilling, or baked stuffed.
Boiling involves cooking from frozen in at least a 1/2 gallon of salted freshwater in a large pot, bringing the water to a rolling boil before dropping the lobster in, bringing the water back to a boil, and cooking for 12-15 minutes.
Grilling the lobster involves thawing the lobster in cold water immediately before cooking. From there, you’re instructed to cut the lobster in half lengthwise with a “big sharp knife” by laying the lobster with the tail flat out on the cutting board, plunging the point of the knife into the center of the lobster’s belly side, about 1.5″ back from the eyes, cutting first toward the head and then from the same point back all the way through the tail. Next, you clean out the body cavity, lightly coating the lobster halves with butter or olive oil, or marinating with your choices of sauce. You then grill over medium flame, shell side down, for 8-9 minutes, until the shell turns bright orange and the flesh is white and firm. Then you inject your favorite marinade or butter into the claws, or shuck the meat and lay it in the body cavity with marinade, being careful not to overcook.
To bake, you thaw the lobster in cold water immediately before preparing. You then remove the claws and knuckles, and shuck the raw meat, scoring the shell with a sharp knife or cracker. Then you cut the legs off at the first joint with kitchen shears and use a rolling pin to roll the meat out. You then split the lobster in half using the same technique as the grilling instructions, following by mixing the claw, knuckle, and leg meat into “the stuffing of your choice”, then filling the cavity. From there, you bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, being careful not to overcook.
In case it wasn’t obvious, boiling is the most straightforward of the three preparation methods. We boiled the lobster.
The boiling instructions call for using at least a half gallon. We used a full gallon, although once it boils we found the lobster contracts enough that it fits in a Dutch oven or stock pot with little problem. It comes in a netting, which is really useful in keeping the lobster together while boiling.
When we pulled the lobster out and removed it from the netting, we discovered it was separated out into pieces, which made it easier to dig into at the table.
A whole lobster is a lot bigger than a tail, but there’s a reason why tails are popular: most of the meat is there. There is lobster meat in other parts of the crustacean, but most of it is small bit pieces in the legs and somewhat more in the lobster’s midsection as well as the claws. The package describes the lobster as a single serving because it’s just that: one serving of lobster.
Still, as whole lobsters go, this is a pretty good one. We thought the meat was nice and tender — we liked it better than our experience with Specially Selected Wild Caught Maine Lobster Tails — and it went well with melted salted butter. We ate it alongside Aldi’s Specially Selected Crab Cakes and it made for a pleasant, if not terribly large lunch.
We’ve come to expect, for the most part, that Aldi does premium foods well, and — once again — we weren’t disappointed. Fremont Fish Market’s whole lobster is easy to prepare and tastes good, and for a lot less than a whole lobster would cost at a restaurant. You’ll need some side items to pad the meal out, since a whole lobster isn’t as much meat as you would think, but as part of a meal this is a nice component.
Raw lobsters are not red.
Has this lobster been blanched?
Comes out of the bag nearly black…but becomes bright red when it’s done steaming in the boiling water. Not blanched at all…must be flash frozen alive!
I had thought mine was red before cooking because of the red netting!
Ours was also a dark color before it went in. (You can see it if you look carefully at our before picture above.) It came out red afterwards. | 2019-04-21T22:43:17 | https://www.aldireviewer.com/2019/01/30/fremont-fish-market-whole-and-raw-maine-lobster/ |

If you are one of the brave who survived my crazy book dump yesterday, I really admire your perseverance!
So, to make up for the length, this post will just have one photo: my submission for Lydia’s MOOP contest!
Really, Lydia? MOOP? Oh well.
This week’s topic is: beauty.
Thanks a lot, Lydia, for picking the hardest things to take pictures of! (I’m being sarcastic.) You really are making us take original pictures.
So without anymore ado (ado ado ado – I can’t help it) here’s my picture.
I chose this because people turn to how your skin looks for beauty- and while’s that not a bad thing, real beauty is in your heart.
Fun Fact: Early makeups were laced with lead, to make you look more light. The lead would seep through the wearer’s face, eating away the tissue, making you more light, but sickening you.
Ok, that’s just gross, but whatever! Thanks for reading! | 2019-04-18T11:16:25 | https://thelensandtheharddrive.wordpress.com/tag/beauty/ |
» Not My Treasured $50 Dollar Bill!
It is a habit of mine to be prepared for hunger. Usually I would pack my lunch bag with a little more than enough, however today was an anomaly. After I ate my apple at snack time the pang of hunger persisted and disappointingly I couldn’t quell the feeling because I had failed to pack a little more than enough. For quite a while I have been trying to keep a 50TTD. So far I have been able to evade the efforts to spend it; and today’s occurrence was worthy of being penned just because of how it unfolded. So here it goes…faced with hunger I decided to go to the cafeteria. Once again in my purse/ wallet was the treasured 50TTD bill, three single dollars and my VISA card. I made my way to the cafe intent on getting something to satisfy my hunger but not to lose my 50TTD bill at the same time. I asked the cafe worker if they accepted VISA to which she answered in the negative. Then I spotted a DIXIE cracker on the shelf which I thought was surely worth my $3.00. Negative again. She said it costs $4.00. I told the cafe girl my 50TTD story to which she encouraged my spending of it saying, I could always get it back. “Ha! I don’t think so!” I politely said and walked away making the resolve to have a power mint and drink some water.
While making my way back I heard a small voice utter my name. I turned to see the warm, smiling face of Aunty Alice and her daughter. We exchanged greetings and chatted a while. In so doing I told her my cafe dilemma. Then while opening her purse she offered me a pack of DIXEE crackers! I didn’t want to go away with the feeling of depriving her of her only pack of crackers but lo and behold, would you believe, she not only had three packs but three different flavours! And the one she gave me was my favourite-guava. How could I decline this offer? Then she offered me a toolum. Something I haven’t eaten in ages. God bless Aunty Alice for what she did. She was God sent. I pray that she is richly blessed and all provision is made for her and her family. Her act of kindness made my day and allowed me to reflect on my duties as a nurse.
As a Nurse in this noble profession the good done is often unrecognised. The reward may not come in the form or fashion we think it should but when instances like these happen I know that I must keep doing the good that I do regardless of the challenges which come. | 2019-04-23T06:42:42 | https://www.poemsbyaj.com/not-my-treasured-50-dollar-bill/ |
