Sometimes, you crave something and nothing, nothing, nothing in the world will be right until it is yours.
Sometimes, you forget about something you once adored, only to re-discover it and love it even more.
Sometimes, you have something to prove, but only to yourself, and you won’t be satisfied until you prove yourself right.
And, sometimes, you become obsessed with something and can’t imagine life before it was in yours.
In order from top to bottom: salt and chocolate, my pistachio KitchenAid stand mixer, the ability to make shortbread, and walnuts.
Much to my palate’s and my ego’s delight, these factors collided in happy harmony, the results of which were these Salted Chocolate & Walnut Shortbread cookies.
I’ve been on a salt kick recently. Not just any salt – Maldon salt. I first read about it in Bon Appetit, and then tasted it at Chewse, where we sprinkle it generously on buttered bread, simple salads, dark chocolate, et al. The crispy pyramids are flaky, crunchy, and mild – the perfect finishing touch to just about any food I can imagine. After buying a box of my own and flaunting the stuff in its own little finishing salt dish, I’ve periodically forced everyone who has entered my kitchen to try a pyramid out for taste.
My KitchenAid mixer, a shiny beacon of pistachio goodness, was gifted to me by my lovely grandmother, when I moved into my first big girl apartment. After playing with my new toy (much to my friends’ delight) day and night, I did what most kids do, leaving it to collect dust and take up space on the counter. It moved with me to my next Boston apartment, where it collected more dust, and was eventually packed up and shipped home, across the country.
Waiting in line at Tartine is a rite of passage every San Franciscan must endure. The delightful scents of churning butter, baking bread, and sugar on sugar on sugar waft out onto the street, where ravenous hipsters and tourists alike wrap around the block like pastry-jonesing ducks in a row. After waiting in said line for longer than I’d care to admit, we collected our earnings (a medley of shortbread cookies and chocolate mousse things) and absconded to Dolores Park like the “good hipsters” we are. I’m glad we went, but the honest to goodness truth was that I thought I could’ve done better. For all you Tartine fans out there, I know this is big talk! Maybe we ordered the wrong stuff – they were out of Pan de Chocolate, okay?! – or, maybe I’m an only child with an inflated ego and nothing to lose, but I was determined to make shortbread cookies worthy of such a tremendous wait.
The final piece to the puzzle is walnuts. Walnuts are good. This I knew and have always known. But, only recently did I really really fall for their crunchy, buttery, earthy goodness. In my book, walnuts belong in my oatmeal, in a jar on my desk, on my salad, in my pasta, and now, all up in my dessert. I hereby sanction a recall of the phrase “icing on the cake” in exchange for “walnut in the cookie.” Make these Salted Chocolate & Walnut Shortbread cookies and you’ll know what I mean.
Well, I’m proud to admit that these cookies turned out great. They’re not too sweet and just salty enough. The little Maldon pyramids sprinkled on top have the slightest little crunch. The butter packed cookies have that satisfying shortbread break with each bite, but just enough give to fold around a spoonful of ice cream for DIY ice cream sandwiches.
And, the good news is, I made these with my eyes half closed! No seriously, I’m not bragging here. They’re so easy to make that I actually managed to do so before work! Let it be known that I am not a do-anything-before-work person. No running, no errands, and certainly no baking. But I’m telling ya, these cookies are so easy and quick to make you’ll actually want to wake up a few minutes before the sun just knowing that their salted walnuty chocolate goodness is in your future.
In a medium size mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa, and baking soda.
In another medium size mixing bowl, combine brown and granulated sugars.
Use a hand or stand mixer to cream the butter in a large mixing bowl for about two minutes.
Add the sugars and vanilla and mix on medium speed for about two minutes more.
Pour in the dry ingredients. Turn the mixer on low in five-second intervals. Pulse like this five times, then turn the mixer on low for about 30 seconds, or until the dough has formed.
Add in the chopped walnuts and salt and mix to combine.
Unwrap the logs and use a sharp knife to cut each log into ¼ inch thick slices.
Place slices a few inches apart on a parchment paper or silicon pad lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with Maldon salt.
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes. Cookies should still feel soft when you take them out of the oven. Let rest for a couple minutes, and then transfer to a cooling rack. | 2019-04-21T04:08:32 | https://www.thepantryraid.net/feed/2015/04/salted-chocolate-walnut-shortbread |

The other day when I was in the attic taking down our Christmas decorations, I found a tobacco stick sled that I made a long time ago. I decided that I would bring it down and spruce it up so that I could display it this Christmas.
I made a lot of these sleds years ago and sold them at craft shows. They were a big seller. I also made chairs out of tobacco sticks and they also sold well at craft shows. I have one chair left and my daughter-in-law has it on her porch. I’ll have to take a picture of it.
To give the sled a new look, I dried brushed it with white paint.
Next, I added some Christmas greens, a red bow and a pair of wooden skates on the front of it.
I think I’m liking the new make-over.
For now, I have it in the entry way but who knows where it will end up.
I almost forgot that I had that sled and I was so excited when I discovered it. Don’t you just love attic treasure finds?
Your make over sure changed the look of the sled. Weren't tobacco sticks used to spear tobacco leaves after they were harvested? It sure was a clever use of an item that is fast disappearing.
Gail, I love it. I love the rustic charm and you decorated it just perfectly. Thanks for joining the party this week!
I am in awe of the entire project! You had me when you said you made the sled! And then you go and decorate it so beautifully. I have my husband's childhood sled that I'm using in my decorations this year. Thanks for giving me some ideas.
Gail, what a fantastic idea! You just had a creative eye and came up with this CUTE decoration. I love it!
I definitely like the makeover! It is so pretty.
Wow, I love this. Your dressing up looks fantastic.
Stopping by from Kim's Boring to Better party!! Love the sled! I usually put one of the old sleds on the front porch but now I see it needs some adornment!!!
That is the cutest thing!! I LOVE the skates!! Thank you so much for following my blog and for coming to my party today!!
I love the old weathered look. I'm not sure what tobacco sticks are but I like them. It looks really cute with the greenery and the skates.
That thing is so darn cute! I pulled down my sleigh (garage sale) and can't wait to put it out. I usually put it in the entryway but might do the front porch this year. I can't decide just yet. Thanks for sharing! | 2019-04-23T02:53:11 | http://gailsdecorativetouch.blogspot.com/2010/11/tobacco-stick-sled.html |
As we pointed out earlier this week, China’s lack of data protection laws and its determination to overtake the US as the world-leader in AI technology poses a serious threat to US technological hegemony. As Russian President Vladimir Putin once said, whoever dominates the AI race could one day rule the world.
Well, another advantage that China has in its AI push is its reputation for strict surveillance and law enforcement – which provides for plenty of use-cases where China can test its nascent technology. Case in point: Police in Shenzen are using AI and facial recognition software to install “smart” traffic cameras that can identify and fine Chinese citizens who jaywalk – a crime that is the subject of strict enforcement in China, per the South China Morning Post.
Intellifusion, a Shenzhen-based AI firm that provides the technology is now in talks with local mobile phone carriers and social media platforms such as WeChat and Sina Weibo to develop a system where offenders will receive personal text messages shortly after a violation has occurred, according to Wang Jun, the company’s director of marketing solutions.
Shenzhen traffic police began displaying photos of jaywalkers on large LED screens at major intersections starting in April 2017. Meanwhile, police stationed at the Zhengzhou East high-speed rail station in Henan province have been equipped with smart glasses with facial recognition software that can identify wanted criminals.
For the current system installed in Shenzhen, Intellifusion installed cameras with 7 million pixels of resolution to capture photos of pedestrians crossing the road against traffic lights. Facial recognition technology identifies the individual from a database and displays a photo of the jaywalking offence, the family name of the offender and part of their government identification number on large LED screens above the pavement.
Nearly 14,000 jaywalkers have been cited since Of course, Shenzen isn’t even the most advanced Chinese city in terms of its use of AI for law-enforcement purposes. In Beijing, police are using the world’s first surround-body camera with built in facial recognition technology to hold scofflaws accountable.
In what appears to be an effort to shame lawbreakers, police launched a webpage in March displaying photos, names and partial ID numbers of jaywalkers.
Police say these measures have reduced the number of repeat offenders. Informing violators via text message would help the city save on construction of large LED screens, which have been used elsewhere in China for shaming purposes.
However, there’s one notable caveat. Shenzhen has one of the most transient populations in China. As a result, many people do not have their information registered in the database of the traffic police, even though anyone staying in the city for more than 30 days is required to do so. That means authorities can only currently identify about 10% of the population.
For the average Chinese citizen, this system closely resembles the nightmarish totalitarian dystopia described by George Orwell in his classic novel “1984”.
When a woman walked to work this month in the bustling Southern Chinese metropolis of Shenzhen, she, like many millions of other Chinese, jaywalked, cutting across a side street to avoid a detour of hundreds of yards to a crosswalk. What happened next, as documented by the woman, a writer calling herself Mao Yan, was an illustration of a brave new world being born in China.
Two traffic policemen approached the woman and told her that she had violated the traffic regulations of the People’s Republic of China. Eager to get to her job, Mao Yan apologized and pointed out that there was no fencing to block jaywalkers like her. She hoped to get off with a verbal warning. The officers, however, were intent on prosecution. They demanded her identity card, which is issued to all Chinese citizens. When Mao Yan said that she had not brought hers, they asked for her ID number. When she said she had not memorized it, one officer snapped her picture with a camera phone. Seconds later he read out her name, her ID card number and date of birth. Using facial recognition technology, he had identified Mao Yan.
Yan said she was taken aback by the experience. Later, WaPo noted that these surveillance technologies are being used in Western provinces to crack down on separatist movements.
“It’s intimidation to make everyone afraid,” she said in a social media post she published after her encounter.
The post was swiftly taken down by China’s censors. | 2019-04-18T15:31:52 | https://infiniteunknown.net/2018/03/29/china-cracks-down-on-jaywalkers-with-ai-facial-recognition-automated-fines/ |
Several proposed appropriations dealing with the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office will be considered when committees of the Quorum Court meet at 5:30 p.m. today.
Among those is a requested transfer of $321,514.70 from the adult jail fund to the Public Safety Sales Tax fund to make up for a deficit in tax funds collected. The requested appropriation would be used to pay salaries and benefits for jail deputies whose salaries are paid from the public safety sales tax instead of county general.
A second proposed appropriation would transfer $103,154.16 from line items covering salaries and benefits for deputies to other line items to pay utility bills, fuel and oil, computer services, fire insurance and the like. No new money is requested with this appropriation.
Also, an ordinance allowing Jefferson County Judge Booker Clemons to accept donations of $28,500 that will be used to purchase furniture and fixtures for the new sheriff’s department building will be considered. In addition to a donation of $25,000 that the department has already received from Simmons First, $2,500 has been donated by FBT Bank and Mortgage and $1,800 from Pine Federal Credit Union.
In other business, a proposed $1,123.66 appropriation for election supplies and general supplies for the Jefferson County Election Commission. Of that, $435 will be used to compensate two people who attended poll worker certification training and conducted two of six poll workers training classes. The state board of election commissioners paid for the certification training. The remaining $687.96 was a reimbursement from The Commercial for a duplicate payment on an ad. The money will be used for a replacement computer and other supplies for the general election.
Other items on the agenda include a proposed appropriation of $29,220.86 for the Road Department that was received by the county treasurer for insurance claims, and a proposed appropriation of $81,432.15 for the Road Department to compensate the department for fuel and services used by other elected officials, departments or agencies. | 2019-04-19T09:22:49 | https://www.pbcommercial.com/news/20180702/qc-committees-to-consider-funds-for-sheriff8217s-office-jail |
A new state law requires cities, counties and fire departments be told ahead of time when an oil train is coming through their community.
But it may be the summer of 2017 before they start getting such a heads-up.
The state Department of Ecology is working to determine what details on the type and source of oil being shipped must be in the notices to help communities prepare for a derailment, spill or other type of accident.
“They really want to know the nature of the products getting transported through their area. We have to figure out what’s feasible to require,” said David Byers, response manager for the agency. | 2019-04-20T21:00:31 | https://wecprotects.org/oil-train-law-still-in-works/ |

They were nearly home and the sun was out. The rain had pretended it was going to get serious, and then petered out. Or maybe Dad just outran the clouds, leaving them to sit over the APE facility where they probably felt more at home.
It had been a strange experience, not one Britta had expected at all. Not that she really had any idea what to expect. She had imagined there’d be some running on a treadmill while someone stood close by with a stopwatch and a clipboard, which was never very likely now that she thought about it. It was wearing the tracksuit that had given her that picture in her mind. For some reason she’d also prepared herself to have to jump over a vaulting horse.
And maybe after that a chat in one of the offices with glasses of sparkling mineral water and Dr Reedy answering all her questions. Not quite how it had turned out.
Britta stared out of the car window and looked at the shops and houses lined up in drab procession along the side of the road.
Which was when Britta remembered the one question she’d told herself to definitely ask, preferably first so she wouldn’t forget, what with all the vaulting and sipping of Pellegrino. Had the destruction of the book resulted in Dad losing the ability point it had given him?
They were locked out of the game for twenty-four hours and couldn’t check, but Dr Reedy could. She had access to everyone’s stats and figures. It might have at least answered one of her mysteries. And she had forgotten.
It wasn’t really Britta’s fault, though. It had been such a surprise to have to stand in front of all those people (who hadn’t really existed) that everything else had flown out of her head.
She took out her phone and called Dr Reedy. There was no reason she couldn’t just ask her.
“Who are you calling?” asked Dad.
“I don’t think the game works like that,” said Britta, although how sure was she? Nigel seemed to be constantly updating the rules.
“Maybe it does,” said Dad.
Dad pulled up outside the house and they got out. Britta’s was still trying to process what Dad had just said. It sounded very plausible. It would certainly make a big difference if it was true. She could go back into the game. She could keep her appointment with Frau Magda. The meeting with APE had gone much quicker than anticipated and it wasn’t even lunch yet.
She followed Dad into the house as he called out to let Mum know they were back. Britta considered phoning Dr Reedy, again. But was that even necessary? She could just try the helmet and see if it let her in.
“Dad will. Love you, Mum.” Britta ran up the stairs to her room. It would only take a second to see if Dad was right.
She grabbed the helmet from under the bed and lay down. It was on her head and ready to go in an instant. A couple of minutes later she was in the Temple of Roha.
She sat up, smiling. No more forced waiting whenever she died. She still had to figure out if the time had just been reduced or completely removed. Dr Reedy would probably be able to help with that. If she had been told Britta was back in the game early, she was probably looking into it already.
Britta didn’t have time to think about it right now, though. She had an appointment to keep.
Finding The Slit Throat on her map only took a second. It was near the posh houses in the southeast part of town, not too far from the Mayor’s residence, which was surprising. With a name like that she’d expected it to be deep in the ghetto.
At least that meant less chance of running into unsavoury sorts. Her teleport spell was also active again so she felt like she was back to full strength. She smiled. It felt good to be back in control of her destiny.
She left the room and made her way to the street, her map open and showing the way. One step through the door was enough for her to realise things had changed in New Town. | 2019-04-20T16:37:26 | http://moodylit.com/bitter-table-of-contents/bitter-282-red |

George Higginbotham, 46, of Washington, D.C., who was employed at the Justice Department as a Senior Congressional Affairs Specialist from July 2016 to August 2018, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to make false statements to a bank before U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of the District of Columbia.
According to admissions made in connection with his plea, in 2017 Higginbotham helped facilitate the transfer of tens of millions of dollars from foreign bank accounts to accounts in the United States to finance a lobbying campaign to resolve civil and criminal matters related to the Department of Justice’s investigation of the embezzlement and bribery scheme concerning 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB). Higginbotham admitted that the foreign principal behind the lobbying campaign was alleged to be the primary architect of the 1MDB scheme. Higginbotham, as a Justice Department employee, played no role in any aspect of the investigation and failed to influence any aspect of the Department’s investigation of 1MDB. Higginbotham further admitted that another purpose of the lobbying campaign was an attempt to persuade high-level U.S. government officials to have a separate foreign national, who was residing in the United States on a temporary visa at the time, removed from the United States and sent back to his country of origin.
In order to conceal the identity of the foreign principal behind the lobbying campaign, Higginbotham admitted to conspiring to make false statements to financial institutions in the United States concerning the source and purpose of the funds. Higginbotham also admitted to working on various fake loan and consulting documents in order to deceive banks and other regulators about the true source and purpose of the money.
The Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General and the FBI are investigating the case. Deputy Chief John Keller and Trial Attorneys Ryan Ellersick, James Mann, Sean Mulryne, and Nicole Lockhart of the Criminal Division’s Public Integrity Section, and Deputy Chief Woo Lee and Trial Attorney Joshua Sohn of the Criminal Division’s Money Laundering and Asset Recovery Section are prosecuting the case. | 2019-04-24T00:13:52 | https://sandiegonewscape.com/index.php/8-news/337-former-justice-department-employee-pleads-guilty-to-conspiracy-to-deceive-u-s-banks.html |

Gillingham Town Team was launched in 2013 to promote the town and revitalise the High Street with a mix of community, cultural and retail activities. Working parties looked in more detail at areas like the town's appearance, event planning, promotion and enhancing the town conservation area as a destination. A High Street survey was undertaken in 2015 with local businesses, which has fed into the work of the Town Team.
To improve the town's appearance, a group was set up to focus on the heritage aspects of Gillingham, working with Historic England, the District Council, and others to look at the wider possibilities for heritage and creative improvements. Areas of interest include public art, better signage, enhanced planting schemes, improving the conservation area, replacing bins and removing graffiti. Current work includes developing a Conservation Area Appraisal. | 2019-04-21T21:01:11 | http://threeriversgillingham.org/node/104 |
2 What Are Fever Blisters?
3.1 Cold Sores and Fever Blisters: Are They Serious?
3.2 Are Cold Sores and Fever Blisters Contagious?
10 Do Home Remedies for Cold Sores or Fever Blisters Really Work?
Cold sores or fever blisters as they are sometimes called are suffered by countless thousands of people worldwide. They are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). Some people are lucky and seldom if ever suffer an outbreak, whereas others are less fortunate and suffer repeatedly from the pain and discomfort they can cause.
The first signs of a sore developing for many people can be a burning or tingling sensation around the mouth and lips, a sore throat and in some cases swollen glands, usually in ones neck. It is harder as a parent to determine if a young child is about to have an outbreak as they are less specific as to what symptoms they are experiencing, but the onset of cold sores is often associated with dribbling as the sore develops.
The actual sores are the result of the reproductive process of the virus, which having entered a healthy cell, causes that cell to replicate the virus. The virus then destroys the host cell, releasing millions of cells in a confined area, which produces what is commonly called the cold sore.
1. Ultra Violet Light – One must be careful not to overdo exposure to the sun. When sunbathing use a suitable sun block.
2. Stress – Either physical or emotional is a major cause because it weakens the body’s immune system causing the virus to become active.
3. Menstrual periods – An outbreak can often be associated with women’s periods.
4. Diet – This plays an important part in one’s general health and consequently your body’s ability to fight off a flare up.
5. Alcohol – Taken in excess, alcohol can rob your body of essential nutrients which can cause cold sores to erupt.
To suppress a cold sore outbreak there are several things one can do to assist the body in suppressing the virus.
Controlling stress is very important. Avoid emotional conflict and ensure one has sufficient sleep.
A diet containing more fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, beans and lentils, free range meats and filtered water strengthens the body and provides the nutrients needed by the immune system to function properly.
There are countless treatments available across the counter or from your family doctor, for them, producing various results, but now there are extremely effective and fast acting natural treatments available that allow you to get a cold sore treatment quickly and eliminate them forever. If you suffer from unsightly cold sores you should investigate these natural treatments which so many people are now raving about.
Medical experts are not sure as to why fever blisters are formed but they are of the opinion that people who suffer from vitamin deficiency and have a low immunity system are more prone to these blisters. Parents therefore should be careful with their young ones and supply them with sufficient fibres, vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates diets which can help them to develop a strong immunity system.
Stress, frequent illnesses like cold or flu and over exposure to sunlight can also be a cause for fever blisters and more importantly those who suffer with a weak immunity system are more susceptible to it.
Precaution is better than cure. So the best way to get rid of fever blisters is to avoid getting them at all by being careful about your diet and leading a healthy life so that if you do fall a victim to a fever blister you will be able to come out of them soon.
How to get rid of fever blisters can be a cause of anxiety but the way to prevent it is to avoid coming into direct contact with one who has it by refusing to share utensils, linen or other items that may transfer the virus from one to the other.
Studies have shown that application of sunscreen on the lips can also prevent fever blisters. L-Lysine is a supplement that may help you to get rid of fever blisters. Also avoid taking chocolates and nuts as these can aggravate the disorder of fever blisters.
A vaccine to help in getting rid of fever blisters is on its way soon so till then nothing can be more helpful than precaution itself.
The HSV-1, or the herpes simplex virus, is the primary cause of cold sores and fever blisters—both of which are the exact same condition that affects the lips. The medical term for cold sores and fever blisters is ‘herpes labialis’. However the word ‘labialis’ is not be confused with genital herpes, which uses the same etymology for the labia of a female’s genitalia. Though rare, cold sores and fever blisters can spread on and around the mouth. And in most serious cases, cold sores and fever blisters swell out over the face, which is called ‘orofacial herpes’.
Cold Sores and Fever Blisters: Are They Serious?
The first question that runs your mind when you think about cold sores and fever blisters is whether or not these conditions are serious. They can be. But most of the time, cold sores and fever blisters remain latent for years before showing any symptoms. And when you do find cold sores and fever blisters, chances are they will disappear within two weeks.
Cold sores and fever blisters are recurrent, as the virus causing it stays in the skin around the mouth. The condition usually comes and goes. Throughout a year, a patient may experience up to a dozen or more recurrences of cold sores and fever blisters. Fortunately, most patients with cold sores and fever blisters don’t have to go through it all. In less serious cases, cold sores and fever blisters stay dormant and only occur 5 to 10 days, once or twice annually.
Are Cold Sores and Fever Blisters Contagious?
Apparently, over 64 percent of adults in the U.S. have this condition, and that doesn’t yet include teenagers who have the herpes simplex virus dormant in their systems. And yes, cold sores and fever blisters are contagious. As a matter of fact, STDs don’t even come close to how infectious this condition is, because cold sores and fever blisters can be contracted with just a single touch.
Instantaneously, the virus can get transferred to the next person’s hand. If that virus somehow comes in contact with an abrasion on the mouth, specifically the oral mucosal tissue, it will initiate the infection and this person will start to develop cold sores and fever blisters.
Even when the herpes simplex virus stays latent underneath the facial skin, it still infects that area. It doesn’t always mean that you have to keep your distance from someone who has cold sores and fever blisters, but you still have to be very careful so as not to touch the infected area.
The risk for contracting cold sores blisters is very high. More often than not, a person already has it unknowingly. It’s even harder to back track steps and figure out from whom he or she got the herpes simplex virus.
In order to fully protect oneself from catching this disease, one should consult with the family physician whenever he or she comes in contact with a person infected with cold sores blisters virus.
Getting cold sores or fever blisters in and around the nose and on other parts of your face can be more painful than the ones that generally appear on the lips and around the mouth.
The cold sores or fever blisters in and around the nose are similar to those that appear on your lips and mouth. They swell and form blisters which erupt, produce scabbing and finally heal, usually leaving no scars. This is called nasal herpes.
Basically, the virus goes through the same stages that oral herpes goes through; that of the ‘prodrome’ stage, the ‘weeping’ stage and the ‘healing’ stage. The ‘prodome’ stage consists of feeling a burning or tingling feeling followed by a formation of a cluster of small blisters at the site of infection.
Next is the ‘weeping’ stage when the fever blister starts to ooze and crust over into a scab. Finally, in the ‘healing’ stage, the cold sores or fever blisters in or around the nose scab or crust over and are replaced by fresh new skin. The cold sores or fever blisters in and around the nose can be a result of autoinoculation, where you actually spread the virus from one area to another yourself. Cold sores are highly contagious. Picking your nose when you accidentally touch an active outbreak of a cold sore is one way of transmitting the virus to your nostrils. Being conscious of what you touch and where your hands have been will help avoid spreading the virus to other parts of your body. Washing your hands often with soap and water will also help prevent autoinoculation.
The cold sores or fever blisters in and around the nose can get really irritating and extremely painful particularly if you have the flu or a cold at the same time. The conditions inside the nose, being moist and warm, make the virus thrive which can increase its chances to infect nearby areas and can lead to a longer healing time than usual. They are aggravated every time you try to blow and wipe your nose as it is nearly impossible to avoid the sores.
When the scabbing stage begins, the crusting becomes hard due to the constant flow of air in the nostrils. This means the scabs can easily break and bleed with just a movement of your nose. The skin in the nostrils is fragile and thin which increases the possibility of the scabs breaking and bleeding easily. This can promote further infection of the virus.
Applying home remedies like placing ice on the nose can help relieve the pain of the cold sores or fever blisters and can speed up the healing time. Taking L-lysine can also shorten the duration of the episode.
Having cold sores or fever blisters on any part of your face is unpleasant enough. But having cold sores and fever blisters in and around your nose could possibly be the worst. However it may be possible to stop a cold sore or fever blister in and around the nose before it starts.
Considering more than half of the world’s population carries the herpes simplex virus 1, there are definitely needs for fever blister remedies. It doesn’t take much for the virus to move itself from one host to the next. The infection of a person comes from making contact with another person carrying the virus.
Many times, all it takes for virus transfer is for people to share saliva, whether it is through kissing, or sharing a drinking cup or eating utensil. People carrying the virus that causes fever blisters should take precautions so that they don’t spread it to others, including family members and co-workers. The areas they usually transmit from include the lips, eyes, and ears.
People must avoid scratching or even touching those infected areas. If there is a need to physically relieve an itch, use a cotton ball or preferably a small cotton swab that can be promptly discarded. It would be nice to wrap the cotton swab in a tissue so know one accidentally touches it during trash can dumping.
Contacting others orally is an obvious no-no. This contagious virus would easily and quickly transmit to the next person. Those items used for consumption of food and drink need to be cleaned thoroughly, and using some antibacterial cleaning solution would be best.
A technique people can opt to use as a fever blister home remedy is an age old tradition that may seem primitive, but it is effective. Many people have seen improvements in their recovery when they apply toothpaste to the location of the blister. The amount needed depends upon the severity of the cold sore. When using toothpaste, cooling and numbing sensations come about from the paste ingredients. The sensations reduce and relieve the pain and itching as the blood flow increases to the fever blister, sending a more rapid supply of white blood cells. For the toothpaste, its active and inactive ingredients which include baking soda, enzymes, and such will help kill germs and bacteria in the immediate area.
Determining early that the virus is bubbling up will greatly aid in treating and reducing the severity of the fever blister. Some of the warnings for an onset of a cold sore include itchiness, slight warmth, and even a bump forming on the skin.
When detected, clean, disinfect, sanitize, and apply toothpaste to the location. Try to apply the paste evenly with a cotton swab, and do this in the morning and before laying down for bed. The fever blisters will eventually heal.
Use sunscreen on a sunny day as a preventative measure if a blister isn’t present. Since the herpes simplex virus 1 cannot be cured, numerous tips including the previous few need to be taken as fever blister remedies, or at least, preventative measures. Detecting the virus early can be a great weapon and so is educating those who are most susceptible around you. If you can prevent a cold sore, you won’t have to worry about the multitude of fever blister remedies.
Some may think fever blisters remedies to be a tale but it is actually a reality to others. When using fever blister remedies on lips or any other varieties of canker sores it truly is vital you take safety measures on what ingredients you applying on your mouth sores. Should you be not cautious of the fever blister remedies used you might make your cold sores a lot more uncomfortable and painful. When you are infected with fever blisters, you must avoid foods like grains, peas, peanuts, chocolate, oatmeal and whole-wheat products.
Below are 6 effective fever blister remedies you can refer to.
1) The easy fever blister remedies are to always maintain the fever blisters clean and dry. Don’t try to cover them up with cosmetics as performing so will only worsen the fever blisters. Other than that, covering up with thick layers of foundation is not effective as well.
2) Applying fever blisters area with petroleum gel will speed up the recovery process, stay away from cracking, bleeding, and try to reduce spreading. Apply lip balm as fever blister remedies that proven having sunscreen protection will help to avoid making the fever blisters worsen. Take note that most of the times fever blisters attacks are caused by long duration of sunlight exposure.
3) One of the fever blister remedies is putting tea bags and ice on fever blisters will help if reducing the pain and soreness, and also minimize the inflammation. Tea contained Tannic acid that has natural anti-viral elements that can assist to fight the fever blister virus.
4) Other fever blister remedies include taking lots of lysine foods and keep away from those that are either high in citric acid or high in arginine. Lysine stops the fever blister virus from replicating and on the other hand arginine keeps them alive. Try to eat more dairy foods and potatoes that are major sources of lysine.
Steer clear of or do away with arginine sources like whole grains, peas and chocolates. Acidic foods are verified to hasten and worsen fever blister, so reduce taking citrus fruits will definitely help.
5) Some herbs such as sage and aloe Vera are commonly used and extremely helpful. Just putting few drops of the extract and waits for the anti-viral elements to work on the fever blisters. This is one of the natural fever blister remedies.
6) Of course, the most easy fever blister remedies are to visit clinic or pharmacy and ask for doctor-prescribed medicines to put to your fever blisters. Practically all of them alleviate the pain and soreness caused by fever blisters. Nonetheless, although some anti-fever blister medications tell you that they are able to cure your cold sores permanently, don’t anticipate it to really do.
Bear in mind that the fever blister virus normally stays inside the nerve endings for a long period. Other than keep looking for fever blister remedies, the best way to defence against it is to find out what actually cause your fever blister attack. The causes are different for every individual.
When in search of fever blister remedies it is ideal to first check for basic solutions that you simply can apply with natural resources that can easily found within your home. Performing this will most likely save you a trip towards the grocery shop.
Many people have apple cider vinegar in their dwelling hence you might need to begin with those fever blisters remedies initially. This fever blisters home remedies are easy to apply and very inexpensive. However a lot of time the fever blister remedies suggested above is not good enough for some individual who have more severe fever blisters.
Home cold sore remedies are desired as a way of preventing the flare-up of fever blisters. This would prevent the need to continually purchase over-the-counter or prescribed medications in order to keep treating the problem. This is necessary as there is not a cold sore cure.
The onset of a cold sore can be detected ahead of time if you train yourself to be aware of the warning signs. Some of the common indicators of a developing cold sore include itching, tingling, and warmth at the location that will become a fever blister.
This period of time usually lasts several hours and provides a period of time where precautions can be taken. During this time, it is highly advised to not touch this area.
To touch or scratch the area will act as a catalyst for the herpes virus to travel to other areas that will be touched. If the overwhelming urge to scratch or clean near the area can’t be overcome, you should clean the area with an anti-bacterial solution, and wipe the area clean with a disposable cotton ball or swab.
It would be great to not have to go through this, and that is why we should take full advantage of proper nutrition in order to reduce cold sore occurrences. If you have a good home cold sore diet, you can make the herpes simplex virus dormant.
A good diet and exercise program should be followed to suppress the virus. The changes you make in your diet to improve the alkaline content in your body is what puts the virus in a dormant state. Making these positive changes in your diet for a lifetime can lead to never seeing that cold sore in the mirror again.
The herpes simplex virus 1 needs an acidic environment to thrive, and in this state it is hard to suppress outbreaks. Balancing your diet between acidic and alkaline foods in the proper proportions will lead to significant reductions in the outbreak of cold sores, as it usually makes the virus dormant. Home cold sore remedies are great, but consult a nutritionist on how to go about implementing some of these changes to your diet.
There are food choices that should be reduced or eliminated altogether in order to succeed with this method.
Foods to avoid include high fat dairy products, margarine products, saturated fat foods, mayonnaise, junk food, artificial sweeteners, chocolate, etc.
Various kinds of preservatives used in food also help trigger outbreaks, so focus on natural, least processed foods. High fibre foods are good for the heart, increase the metabolism, have low acidity, and are usually all natural.
Avoid those acidic foods to avoid cold sore outbreaks. Water, milk, and juices are excellent drinks to stay hydrated, but be sure to reduce your caffeine intake. Make your food choices your home cold sore remedies, and stop suffering from fever blisters.
Once you get a fever blister, you will experience pain, numbness, burning and tingling around your mouth or lips. Before you figure out how to get rid of a cold sore, the infected skin around your lips will turn red. After 4-5 days the red skin will turn into yellow crust. This usually means that your cold sore should heal in about 8-10 days.
Don’t touch your blister – The first tip on how to get rid of fever blisters is to keep them from spreading by not touching the infected skin. Touching the blisters frequently will only add infection to your cold sore. And scratching them for getting rid of cold sores will only harm your skin.
Lastly, one of the main reasons why you should not touch your cold sore is to avoid spreading the virus. Touching your fever blisters and making physical contact with your friends and families will only put them at risk of getting them too.
Keep it clean – How do you get rid of a cold sore and the associated pain? Simple – you can ease the soreness by using soap and water. Rub the soap smoothly into your fever blisters then wash it off. But make sure that the soap will not be used by others to avoid cross contamination. Cleaning your fever blisters once in a while will also help lessen the bacteria around your mouth and prevent further infection.
Apply a cream – There are creams that contain zinc oxide, which has been said to lessen the outbreak of fever blisters. Some creams require prescription but there are also over-the-counter creams for getting rid of a cold sore. Creams can also alleviate the pain and tingling of fever blisters.
Consult your doctor -If you’re really bothered and want to make sure that you’re doing the proper thing, it is best to ask your doctor how do you get rid of cold sores. Getting a check-up will help you to know the cause and treatment for fever blisters. You can also ask your doctor if he or she can prescribe antiviral medicine or creams to heal faster.
The above steps are just some ways how to get rid of cold sores – there are still many others. Just make sure that you take note of the signs and prevent the spreading of the virus.
Some remedies can sooth the pain, reduce the area affected, and speed up the healing process, cutting short the duration of the visible sore. One of the most common remedies, and possibly the cheapest, is treating cold sores and fever blisters with ice.
A lot of cold sore sufferers testify to the amazing effects that treating cold sores and fever blister with ice has on their outbreaks. Sometimes ice can even stop the virus from turning into a full-blown occurrence. To accomplish this you need to take action immediately at the first sign of an oncoming outbreak, also known as the ‘prodrome stage’, when you get that tingling or itching sensation.
Treating cold sores and fever blisters with ice involves putting an ice pack on the area affected and holding it there for a few minutes and taking it off occasionally if it gets too painful. Do this for about 10-15 minutes every hour or more, if you have time. Doing this in the early stages of an outbreak reduces the virus’ metabolism, discourages its reproduction and can eventually push the virus back into hibernation.
Treating cold sores and fever blisters with ice is a fairly effective way to stop a full-blown outbreak. The results may vary from one person to another. In the event that it continues to develop, continue applying ice on the area to help ease the pain and to stop further swelling. This will also make the cold sore go away faster than usual.
Treating cold sores and fever blisters with ice can produce remarkable effects on its own. And if used with other treatments, it can produce better results.
Frozen tea bags are an example of a treatment with ice incorporated in it. This treatment provides the soothing effects of ice and increases the potential of suppressing the cold sore virus. Tea contains natural anti-viral properties that can be used as an organic remedy for cold sores or fever blisters.
Another combination that many sufferers find success with is; ice followed by rubbing alcohol. This dries out the sore and keeps the area sterile.
There are many other home remedies for treating cold sores or fever blisters that sufferers have used with varying degrees of success. Using ice as an inhibitive measure and in combination with other treatments for cold sores or fever blisters is fairly effective. However treating cold sores or fever blisters with ice is still treating an outbreak. A more effective solution would be to stop the cold sore before it starts.
Do Home Remedies for Cold Sores or Fever Blisters Really Work?
Do home remedies for cold sores really work? Curing cold sores is difficult, if not next to impossible. No treatment works for everyone. One person will have good results with a remedy and another person will say that it doesn’t work for them. In addition there are differing strategies.
One approach is to try and dry the sore. Another approach is to keep it moist and deprive it of oxygen, and still a third is to dry it out and then keep it moist.
In addition, there are other preparations that are normal house hold supplies that do not fall into either category, with examples of how they could be used.
Do home remedies for cold sores really work? The method of drying out the sore involves applying some sort of astringent to the site. There are many different products that accomplish this. Most of them contain alcohol or a solvent that dries out the skin.
Here is a partial list, starting with the most logical and proceeding to the hard to believe. Most of the time one would use ice and/or open the blisters with a needle before using these products.
Drying the sore is probably a better strategy than keeping it moist. Almost all of the over the counter preparations keep the area moist. Usually this is not effective in shortening the episode.
Next is a partial list of remedies that don’t really fall into either category. They are reported to be helpful in treating cold sores.
Most of these home remedies are reported to shorten the episode, but again they focus on applying something to the sore after it has already started. So the best that can be expected is to shorten the healing time and perhaps relieve some of the pain. But be aware that some of them actually increase the pain. | 2019-04-19T08:41:08 | https://www.coldsoretreatmentadvice.com/treatment/fever-blister-remedies/ |

Heating with The electric bed blanket was fantastic, best among all The hotels we stayed in. The non beg options in The buffet are limited though. Very prompt and courteous staff. Only problem was that there was no hot water an entire day.
Electricity fluctuations and lack of 24/7 hot water were the only negative aspects. Everything else was fantastic, especially the heating in the room and the view.
Only veg food requires some more attention.

New property friendly staff good food minor things to be take care like heating during winter accommodation options for accompanying chauffeurs not good property is at least 10 km from pahalgam.
New property. Needs more time to settle up. Great staff. They do their best to get things done. We were shifted to a suite after the heater in our room stopped working. You don't expect this in one of the coldest places in wash air. The other room was much bigger and views were great. Unfortunately, the water stops when there is a power cut. You an expect frequent power cuts here. This happened when in the middle of the shower. Not a good experience. Overall the property is good.
Located a few km before the main town, overlooking the Jhelum tributary, it’s a scenic location, with balconies from all rooms, well done up. Very good service from the staff, esp in relation from my ailing mother. Variety of available food could improve upon a bit, but overall a satisfied stay.

Review-South Carolina metal punk rockers Burnt Books start this cd off with a huge bang with Selfish Friend, like they are warning you to buckle up for this ride. What an opening track, this sounds like if Black Flag met Jane’s Addiction by way of Jesus Lizard. This song is the best way for this band to introduce themselves to new audiences and get you people stoked, and they kick it off with a loud, thunderous and really heavy song that will get you off your chair to rock with them. And what a shock on track two Empty Eyes they keep the intensity going and just add some more adrenaline and power to it. Zoe Lollis sounds like she is screaming inside a plastic bag and she is having an asthma attack at the same time, then her choruses she sounds like she has been listening to Karen Black and wanted to try and one up her sound. In a world of music where most female musicians all sound alike, look alike and you know what to expect wait till you hear what Zoe gives you, this is something unique and different. And she also plays a mean banjo and does a soft ballad with it, yes this is a metal band but she does the song more for the uniqueness of the music more than a gimmick.
As the cd goes on we get a song called In a Shallow Grave which starts off with a little nod to PJ Harvey then into full out of control screaming and her asthma attack vocal range. Which is not a bad thing at all, and I think this makes this band more than a Walls of Jericho comparison and gets them in their own place. Burnt Books has a bunch of talented musicians who back up their singer and give her a sonic background of noise and fury that she really makes her own nirvana and creates a chaotic mess that is such a much listen. This cd is just loud in your face, then all over the place and in your face then just out of control chaos, which for this band and this lead singer fits them like a glove. This could be the new Jesus Lizard for 2013 if they had The Melvins join them as well. | 2019-04-23T18:01:21 | http://wickedchannel.com/2013/02/music-review-burnt-books-burnt-books/ |

Your landscape designer will arrange the vegetation in a way such that no plant over-shadows the other. This means that taller plants will be in the back and around the perimeter of the garden and the medium to smaller ones are planted in the center.
Stones are a huge part of the Japanese garden style. Ask your landscape designer to incorporate various sizes of rocks and boulders sporadically throughout the garden.
Ask them to add pebbles or river rock throughout the garden as well to create a scene that makes you feel as if you are near a waterfall or lake.
Include a water feature in the design. A great example is a babbling brook or a stream with river rock in the bottom that runs throughout the garden, between the plants and trees. Expect to hire an electrician to install the electrical pump so that the water flows over the rocks and throughout the garden.
Keep the furniture in your Japanese garden simple. An outdoor bench with an Asian design is all you need. Overloading the area with furniture clutters up the garden, which takes away some of the Zen ambiance.
Another option is a small round table with two chairs so that you and a friend can enjoy the peace and tranquility of the garden.
Work with a landscape designer like All Season Landscaping to choose the right Japanese garden plants, rocks, pebbles and furniture. Ask the designer how to keep the babbling brook or creek clean, as well as what the proper care method is for the plants to keep them looking great for years to come. | 2019-04-24T22:02:07 | http://localizabolivia.com/2015/02/18/thinking-of-a-japanese-garden-here-is-what-you-need-to-buy/ |
Wet… Wet… WET! We’ve never seen the field this wet before. We figured that there is a layer of frozen soil preventing the east west drainage on the north side from removing the water. Henry (right), fearless golf cart driver, and I (left) checked out the field and drove around the pond.
The two concrete drains were flowing from the pond. Henry thought that maybe the pond overflow pipe might be plugged a little but water was flowing out.
Ethan Saladin (l.) and Larry Kirkbride (r.) installed the head rests and center back cushion for the Grob 103.
Staring out of the clubhouse through the rain we noticed the wind sock was on the ground, so there was no flying Saturday.
Tyler Dockum got his initial flight training at CCSC starting with Youth Camp. That helped him win an appointment to the Air Force Academy and gave him a good foundation on which to build his piloting skills. Tyler has maintained his membership in CCSC in order to be able to fly gliders on his visits home from the Academy.
At the Academy Tyler has been preparing to fly some very powerful aircraft.
In prior issues the requirements for the Silver Badge have been introduced. This time let’s look more closely at the Silver Distance Requirement. A great way to prepare for this flight is to practice flying the triangle with CCSC, Warren County (I68) and Dayton-Wright Brothers (MGY) as the turn points. The total distance around that triangle is very close to the 50 kilometers required for the “Distance” portion of the Silver Badge. A big difference is that for the Silver Badge the 50 kilometers must be a straight line distance. So pull out your sectional chart and look for an airport that is at least 50 kilometers away from CCSC. How about Fayette County (I23)? It is a little over 50 km away and if you stay to the north of the Wilmington Class D airspace there are airports which might work as alternates in case the lift disappears.
a) Aircraft engine and airframe logbooks, and owner’s manual. b) Radio operator’s permit, and repair and alteration forms. c) Operating limitations and Registration Certificate.
The board approved treating the Grob-102 in the same manner as for the past three years, so if you want to take best advantage of BG in 2018 you want to declare that desire and sign up. Everyone who wants to fly BG is asked sign up and prepay $90. For the rest of the year those members may fly up to 2-hour blocks as many times as they want with no additional Aircraft Use Fee. Other members will be charged $25 for each Aircraft Use and will be limited to 1-hour blocks. The Hook-up Fee, Basic Tow Fee and Altitude Index Fee will follow the Schedule of Fees and Dues for all pilots, only the Aircraft Use Fee and the flight duration limit are different.
This will be a big help if your goal is the C badge (solo flight exceeding 60 minutes) or Bronze badge (at least 10 flights in a single-place glider with at least two flights having a duration of two hours or more) or the silver badge. If you want to fly the G-102 more than four times or for flights lasting more than an hour with no additional Aircraft Use Fee in 2018 it is to your advantage to declare that desire by email to Jim Dudley. The $90 G-102 Fee will appear on your March statement, payable by March 31.
The runway is primarily for flying sailplanes. Alternate use for such activities as model airplane flying, etc. is permitted only when sailplane operations are not in progress. Sailplane flying ALWAYS preempts any other activity.
Hunting or discharging firearms (target practice) on the gliderport property is not permitted.
Use of fireworks is not permitted.
Your written comments are welcome. Please submit them to any board member prior to the March 3, 2018 meeting of the Board. | 2019-04-24T08:34:07 | http://www.soarccsc.com/feb-27-2018-frequent-flyer/ |
The George Washington University Emergency Medical Response Group (EMeRG) is a student-based volunteer organization licensed to provide Basic Life Support and serve the GW Foggy Bottom and Mount Vernon campuses. We strive to serve our community during the academic year with at least one crew in service 24/7, and a second during peak hours of 6PM-8AM Friday and Saturday. Our response area includes both the Foggy Bottom and Mount Vernon campuses. All of our members are licensed Emergency Medical Technicians at the Basic level or higher in the District of Columbia.
While our primary mission is to provide outstanding emergency medical care, we also seek to provide valuable educational opportunities for our members as well as to promote the general health and wellbeing of the Foggy Bottom/GW Community. We arrange monthly Continuing Medical Education classes and engage in vigorous precepting and call review activities to ensure that our members continue to serve as excellent medical providers. We also actively look for and welcome any opportunity to engage in community outreach activities.
EMeRG is proud to be composed of undergraduate and graduate students from a variety of major areas of study. While we do have pre-med students, a large portion of our membership is comprised of students whose fields of study are non-science or non-medical related. The members of EMeRG serve because of our passion for public service and emergency medicine, and these motivating factors drive us to continue to excel as healthcare providers regardless of our areas of collegiate study.
The George Washington University Emergency Medical Response Group (EMeRG) was founded in 1994 by Emergency Health Services students Jacob Abbott and Geoff Shapiro. EMeRG began and currently operates as a licensed BLS agency in the District of Columbia.
Campus bike response began in 1996. Responders provided Basic Life Support and treatment to patients and then transferred patient care to DC Fire and EMS (DCFEMS) when transportation to the Emergency Department was needed. Patient care capabilities were expanded in 2001 when EMeRG obtained a Quick Response Vehicle (QRV) to better respond on campus. The QRV decreased response time and increased equipment providers could utilize during response.
EMeRG began its first ambulance operations in the fall of 2008. The patient care abilities of the organization increased as care providers were able to not only respond and assess patients on scene, but transport them to the hospital as well. EMeRG providers are also able to work more directly with DC Fire and EMS Advanced Life Support, when necessary, to treat patients requiring more interventions outside of the Basic Life Support capabilities of EMeRG. In the spring of 2009, EMeRG obtained an additional ambulance for campus and community response.
EMeRG has a close relationship with many other organizations on campus; because of this, standby support is provided for many events on campus including games hosted at the Smith Center. EMeRG also regularly provides standby medical care for training exercises for the University Police Department.
EMeRG is a member of the National Collegiate Emergency Medical Services Foundation (NCEMSF). The organization has served as National Conference host in 2003 and co-host, with Georgetown University Emergency Medical Response Service, GERMS, in 2009. | 2019-04-24T06:59:07 | http://www.gwemerg.com/about.html |

Spherical glass bulb (purple from radiation damage) with cylindrical stems carrying the electrodes (cathode end broken).
The Coolidge Tube, first produced in 1913 by W. Coolidge, is the forerunner of all the types of x-ray tubes in common use today. The Coolidge tube was the first type of practical x-ray tube to employ the principle of thermionic emission.
A tungsten filament is used as the tube cathode, and during operation is heated to incandescence by passing a current through it. This causes the filament to emit electrons at a rate dependent on the temperature of the filament. The electrons are then accelerated towards the tube anode by the strong tube voltage. Upon hitting the anode, the electrons are decelerated very rapidly, and shed their excess kinetic energy mostly as heat, and partly as x-ray radiation. To prevent the electron beam from dispersing due to repulsive forces between the electrons, the cathode filament is surrounded by a metal focusing cup at a high negative potential, that has the effect of converging the beam to a relatively small focal area on the anode. X-ray tubes previous to the Coolidge tube (known as Gas Tubes), relied for their electron source, on the tube voltage being strong enough to 'pull' electrons from the cathode. These were accelerated towards the anode, and collided with residual gas molecules purposefully left in the tube, ionizing the molecules and causing the ejection of more electrons. In this way, the required electron beam was built up with a kind of 'avalanche effect'. However, the number of electrons in a beam produced this way, and their energy upon collision with the anode, were both dependent on the gas pressure within the tube, which was rarely stable, and difficult to control. In addition, the number of electrons produced in this way, was, by today's standards extremely small, and hence the intensity of the produced x-rays very low, leading to very long exposure times.
The Coolidge tube, using as it did thermionic emission to obtain a source of electrons, removed the dependency on residual gas for the number and energy of the electrons in the electron beam (an indeed in Coolidge tubes, almost all gas is removed). In fact, as the number of electrons produced depended on the current applied across the cathode filament, and the energy of the electrons on the tube voltage, the Coolidge tube made it possible to easily and independently vary the number of electrons (and hence the intensity of x-rays produced), and their energy (and hence the frequency of produced x-rays). Also, thermionic emission allowed a much higher bound on the numbers of electrons produced, and hence lead to a drastic reduction in exposure times. | 2019-04-21T18:59:28 | https://physicsmuseum.uq.edu.au/coolidge-x-ray-tube |

They say that making to do lists at the beginning of your day gives you tiny goals to achieve.
In my case it never helps, so I end up making finished to do lists at the end of the day, cause it gives me more sense of.. accomplishment? That way i can see what I did manage to do in my day, because my original plans always get derailed..
So today I did the above stuff on the list! I m editing two videos at the moment and about to film another one soon! | 2019-04-21T07:17:16 | http://chaosloops.blogspot.com/2016/08/motivation-can-be-a.html |
Though the scenic highlight of our workshop week was definitely the caves on Devil’s Island, looking for photo ops we also traveled off island, to Ashland, to shoot the murals.
Here is a link to read about the murals. It includes a page about each of the individual murals. Just a couple of interesting facts about the murals in general. These are the work of two women artists, spanning 20 years; the first dedicated in 1998 and the most recent, May of 2018. The people shown in the murals are real people! Most of the images were done from photographs supplied by local families and the Ashland historical archives and, with very few exceptions, the people are identified by name.
As a tourist to the area, you will enjoy a morning or an afternoon walking around the historic center of Ashland to see the murals. Take along one of the walking guides if, like me, you like a little narration with your art. Assuredly you can enjoy them for their visual impact alone. They are very well done. You do not need to know the individuals pictured and, collectively, they give a sense of the history and the people of Ashland.
To see the slideshow at your own pace, click on the pause button on the screen. The link above allows you to page through in the same order I have presented them here and read all about each one.
To round out a full week in the area, Gerry and I stayed two extra nights in Bayfield. That gave us a full day on Saturday to explore the mainland parts of the Lake Superior National Lakeshore. We started by visiting the Visitors Center located in Bayfield.
Bayfield was once the county seat and all the administration and courts for the county were located in an imposing brownstone building. The National Park Service now occupies the building. I mention this because the quarrying of brownstone – the very same stone that gives its name to townhouses in big metropolises (we lived in a brownstone in Brooklyn back in the early 80s) – was a big industry in this region.
Frenel Lens in the lighthouses exhibit at the Visitors Center in Bayfield.
From the Bayfield Visitors Center we got on the road (#13) and drove to Meyer’s Beach, the southwestern corner of the NPS property. We parked and took the trail through the woods to the cave overlook area – a walk of 1.8 miles each way.
The beginning of the Cave Overlook Trail. Don’t be fooled. the boards were not easy on the legs.
Like going to see the caves in the small, fast, boats, hiking to the overlook was a situation where you have to endure the trip to get the reward. The scenery at the overlook was worth every pain-filled step along a trail that was up and down, up and down, first on wooden stairs (no rails!) and then over roots and through mud.
I so wish the pictures could convey the heart-stopping height of the cliffs, and depth of the caverns carved by the waves. I had to hold on to a tree in order to lean out over the edge to point my camera down, and even so I had to fiddle with all the shadow sliders in Photoshop to make the depths visible in the pictures. With the bright sunlight filtering through the pines, the upper regions were perfectly lit, but the depths were dark and mysterious. Look for the occasional flash of a neon kayak to help you find the water!
The way back was long, and we were already pretty tired. The trail is strenuous for a couple of 60 year olds! At about the midway point, there is an access to the beach. We walked down to the water only to discover that walking back along the beach was going to mean walking in the water. We did it. We took off our shoes and socks so we could wade around the overhanging vegetation. OH! That cold water felt good on our aching feet! Even my cold-phobic husband got used to the temperature, eventually.
The walk along the beach was a breath of fresh air (literally – it was cooler near the water) because the scenery along the shore was totally different from what we had seen in the woods. The beach was sandy with pebbles. The waves were small and gentle. Birches leaned out over the sand to catch the sunlight, their white bark and bright green leaves contrasted merrily against the dark pines, the blue water and high overcast sky. I looked for pretty rocks and beach glass caught against the dried and bleached driftwood.
Exhausted and thirsty by the time we arrived back at the parking lot, we got into our car and headed to Cornucopia, WI for a bite to eat.
Cornucopia is literally a one block town. On one side is Little Nikki’s Bar and the Post Office. On the other a hardware/convenience store. Oh! There is also a real estate office and an ice cream shop. That’s the whole town! We had a very good lunch at Little Nikki’s, so if you are going to hike or kayak from Meyer’s Beach, take note that there is a decent place to eat at about 5 minutes from the parking lot.
Cornucopia is also where you rent kayaks to see the caves. Be mindful that you need a sea kayak on Lake Superior, not a regular recreational kayak!
To fill out the afternoon we drove “back” toward the Sand Bay entrance to the Lakeshore. I say “back” because Meyer’s Beach is at the far southwestern corner of the property, and we were headed backwards towards Bayfield to get to Sand Bay. (We were going north along the western side of the peninsula).
Someplace, I read that the “thing to do” at Sand Bay was see the fishery. Ask and ye shall receive!
The ranger station at Sand Bay is in a trailer while a new Visitors Center is under construction. We stopped at the trailer and asked the ranger on duty about the fishery, and we were offered the free guided tour! Just as we had been told.
This is the pile driver that was used to put down the pilings that supported the pond nets. Now on shore because of storm damage.
It was extremely interesting. Our guide was a history enthusiast and she enjoyed telling us all about the operations, the fishing in the Lake Superior, the lives of the people in the area at the time – and showing us the buildings, inside and out. Be aware that you do not need to take a guided tour to walk around the fishery property, but you will not be able to go inside.
Here you can see the damaged wharf.
The long stone wharf was destroyed, huge pilings that once contained the rocks thrown helter-skelter. The wooden pier was gone. The long shed that served for receiving the fish was so deteriorated by the storm that it had to be removed from the pier to try to preserve it. The ranger explained that the maintenance crews had so much repair work, that they were not able to keep all the parts of the park open this summer.
Rings for the pond nets. These were slipped over the pilings.
We learned a lot. This fishery employed “pond” nets (sometimes written “pound” nets) which kept the fish alive. The nets were emptied about 2-3 times a week, so getting live fish meant fresher fish. The other type of net in use in Lake Superior was a gill net. This is a large flat net situated vertically to lake bottom. The fish swim into it and get caught, their heads through the holes, their gills preventing them from going backwards and their bulk from going further forward. They drown. The gill nets are also not particular about what fish they catch – They catch anything, non-food fish, and npn-fish, too.
The pond nets are shaped like a giant basket, in that they have a floor and sides. At the corners or around the edges huge metal rings are attached to the net. These slip over pilings that are driven into the lake bottom, suspending the net in the middle. The fish are guided into the nets. Once the fish swim into the “basket,” they have a hard time finding the exit again.
To haul in the nets, the men maneuver their large flat-bottomed boat around the edges of the net lifting it by the rings off the pilings. Then they haul the full net into their boat. They toss all the unwanted lake dwellers and non-food fish back into the lake, alive, and put the food fish into barrels to be taken back to the dock for processing – either icing or salting. They were fishing mainly for whitefish, lake trout and herring.
Forge, anvil and other tools in the work shed.
This particular fishery was active during a couple of decades when the State of Wisconsin was no longer tracking commercial fishing activity in Lake Superior, but it was not the heyday for fishing. That had occurred in the previous century. Still the fishery made a decent living for these three brothers and their families until it shut down. Regionally, fishing declined dramatically in Lake Superior in the 1930s due to invasive species like the lamprey eel and over-fishing in general.
Today, both whitefish and lake trout, fresh from Lake Superior, can be found on all restaurant menus and in fish stores throughout the Chequamegon region. Be sure to try them both. We were amazed at the variety of ways these fishes are prepared. They are both delicious.
I have found the history of the region fascinating, and I urge you not to overlook it because of the dazzling allure of the caves. The caves are spectacular, but they are like the flowers on a hat. Very showy and unforgettable, but beneath there is the hat itself – also interesting for its craftsmanship, materials, and style. The “hat” of this region is made from the roles of Native Americans, fur traders, loggers, fishermen and tourism officials who have all contributed to its history and culture.
Lakeshore and damaged wharf where the fishery brought in the catch.
For dinner, we met friends at the Old Rittenhouse Inn for dinner. It was a nostalgic trip for me – a memory of my father who loved this place. With a wonderful dinner and company, it was a evening to repeat.
The whole trip is worth repeating. As I mentioned earlier, I want to see Isle Royale and the other NPS properties along the Lake and I can see another workshop at MISA in my future, too!

Storyline : A woman seeks revenge against those who orchestrated a plane crash that killed her family.
Eon Productions’ ‘The Rhythm Section’ has recommenced filming in Ireland after production was forced to shut down earlier in the year following the injury of leading actress Blake Lively.
Blake Lively & Jude Law were spotted filming in Dublin on Sunday evening with director Reed Morano (‘The Handmaid’s Tale’).
Production was temporarily halted back in December after Lively sustained an injury to her hand while performing a stunt in Dublin.
It was unclear at the time when the production would return to Ireland as no date was made clear by the production team in its official statement about the incident. Local crew were also encouraged to seek other work while the American actress returned home to recover from her injury.
It was widely reported that surgery on the injured hand of Blake Lively did not go as planned and a further operation had been scheduled, causing a long-term delay to the return of the actress.
Production resumed elsewhere in June however as other production locations that included Spain and New York had been arrange to take place after the successful completion of filming in Ireland. Now the crew has return to wrap on principal photography with a February 2019 target for release still being held by Eon Productions.
‘The Rhythm Section’ is an adaptation of Mark Burnell’s spy thriller, which follows protagonist Stephanie Patrick (Blake Lively), seeking to uncover the truth behind a plane crash that killed her family, and that she herself was meant to be on. The Eon production (‘James Bond’ Franchise) is set to have a budget of $50 million, and is being produced by Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, with funding coming from Global Road.
"Ireland plays many different things in this movie. It shows you how versatile it is, that it can be many different places. We love being here; we love the Irish crew… It's just the people; it's the welcoming spirit of the people that's just so lovely."
"It's a great place to make movies. You've got great craftsmen and crews and a wonderful spirit here and beautiful locations and facilities. I guess we've been so busy travelling around the world [that] often you don't really notice what's on your own doorstep. Let's see, maybe we'll try and get Bond here at some point. I must say, having experienced it, I would love to come back."
An initial release date of February 22nd, 2019 was announced for ‘The Rhythm Section’ by Paramount Pictures who are handling worldwide distribution on the film. | 2019-04-18T17:20:41 | http://fullmovie4khd.com/therhythmsection/index.html |

I was always a shy kid, a classic introvert. In school I’d always prefer to play on my own or read books in the quiet than to interact and engage with other children.
School was the hardest in terms of dealing with social anxiety. I was much taller than the other kids and this made me self-conscious. My peers would often bully or taunt me for my height, and I would take these remarks to heart and it would make me withdraw and fear people and social settings even more.
In high school my anxiety remained the same. I’d fear everything involving people; including catching public transport, eating in front of others, attending birthdays or places where there’d be heaps of people, talking to my peers (especially boys!), giving presentations, going to a grocery store, walking along the street, talking on the phone, and even sending an email!
All these situations ignited great fear within me and I would become overly conscious of myself and my behaviour in social interactions, the classic ‘spotlight effect’.
It wasn’t until graduating from high school and starting university that I began to acknowledge my behaviours and the thoughts which may have been contributing to my anxiety. I began seeking self-help books which dealt with social anxiety and CBT, and worked on myself to counteract the negative automatic thoughts I’d have.
From this, my anxiety relieved enormously. However it wasn’t until I begun the Learn to Live online program in conjunction with daily meditation that I saw tremendous results.
I finished the Learn to Live program within 3 months, and in this short time I found my whole mindset and approach to social anxiety change for the better. Through the online coursework I was able to adapt the new knowledge and coping strategies and use them in social settings which would usually cause me great anxiety.
This program is different to others I have tried in terms of its format and its use of tailored CBT strategies for social anxiety sufferers. It gave me a challenge; something to work towards and commit to. I would start a new module each week and commit myself to doing the activities outlined.
Obviously it wasn’t an easy process. Essentially I was training myself to do the absolute opposite of what I’d usually do in situations which caused me fear. Instead of avoiding situations like I usually would, I would make myself confront them and stick to them until the initial fear all but disappeared. From talking to a stranger on the street, to striking up a conversation with a store person, or calling and making my own appointments.
By exposing myself to fearful situations and reminding myself of the practical strategies outlined on the program, I was able to overcome my fears and realise that I have much more inner strength than I realised.
One of the turning points was when I decided to attend a big event by myself. It included meeting and talking to a celebrity. I was so anxious beforehand, but because I was aware of these thoughts I knew how to counteract them and relax.
Not only did I make new friends, I also managed to hold a conversation with the celebrity and ask for a picture!
From this event I’ve continued to improve in leaps and bounds. I can happily walk down a street or go shopping without feeling that crushing sense of self-consciousness and fear of what people think of me. I have no qualms about picking up a phone and talking to a stranger. I initiate 90% of my conversations with strangers, friends, and family.
Rather than fearing social settings, I now look at them as ‘challenges’ and find I actually end up enjoying being in these situations.
One of my favourite things to do now is to sit and eat at a café in the city – by myself. I also feel calm and confident in my social interactions, to the point that now talking casually to a stranger in passing or with a co-worker is second nature.
Of course there have been times where I’ve felt my old feelings of crippling fear and anxiety. Sometimes it has been a case of 3 steps forward and 5 steps back. The difference now though is that I am now aware of the reasons behind my behaviours and am able to effectively deal with the anxiety as soon as it arises.
Through continued training with CBT and the modules on Learn to Live, these positive coping strategies are starting to become – and will end up – being my normal way of behaving.
Dealing with social anxiety is extremely prohibiting. It can make you feel alienated, alone, and like there’s something wrong with you. In my experience, the worst part was having others think that you were arrogant or rude or disinterested in them, when in fact, the opposite was true!
Such behaviours which I used as coping strategies included avoiding eye contact, pretending to not ‘see’ someone as to avoid conversation, covering my mouth while I ate, letting others do the talking in groups, and completely withdrawing from people, to name a few.
I can never thank Dr. Russ and the team at Learn to Live enough for helping me to realise that social anxiety is not who I am and that essentially, I am in control of how I choose to let this fear dictate me.
Social anxiety is not a sign of weakness, moreover it is a heightened sense of awareness of your own thoughts and behaviours in social settings. Once you begin to learn this, it becomes easy to begin changing these negative and prohibiting thoughts and behaviours and to start accepting yourself for who you are and learn to live as the interesting, confident, and fun person you really are! | 2019-04-19T22:44:28 | http://blog.learntolive.com/social-anxiety-story-living-social-anxiety/ |

This year, the festival gave him an even better opportunity: On April 13, Balvin will become the first reggaetón artist to officially appear on its lineup -- with second-line billing, no less -- in the festival’s two-decade history. It’s one of many milestones in 2019: Coachella also booked Blackpink and Perfume, the first K-pop and J-pop girl groups, respectively, to play the festival. Latin trap superstar Bad Bunny, regional Mexican group Los Tucanes de Tijuana, flamenco-pop artist Rosalía and Chilean singer Mon Laferte round out the lineup. Balvin and Rosalía will also play Chicago’s Lollapalooza, as will Kacey Musgraves, who is the highest-ever-billed country act at New York’s Governors Ball.

After reading Sebastiao Salgado’s latest book “From my Land to the Planet“, I guess i have to catch this one “The Salt of the Earth“, directed by his son Juliano and the German director Wim Wenders. Sebastião Salgado has created some of the twentieth century’s most iconic photography. From war zones to famine, genocide to exodus, Salgado has documented many of the world’s major events of the last 40 years in crisp black-and-white pictures. He’s also won countless prizes, including being named last week as a Master of Photography at Photo London 2015. I will highly recommend to any photographers out there to read his book as u will find a lot of inspiration and comfort in one of the greatest social documentary photographer and photojournalist in our time.
I have always tried to show people in all their dignity. In the majority of cases, they are the victims of cruelty, of events. They are photographed at a time in which they have lost their homes, seen their loved ones murdered, sometimes even their own children. For the most part, they are innocent people who do not deserve the misfortunes that have struck them. I took these photos because I thought that everyone needed to know. That is my opinion, but I don’t force anyone to look at them. I am not here to lecture or to set my conscience at rest by arousing feelings of compassion. I took these images because I had a moral, ethical obligation to do so. In such moments of suffering, you may ask, what are morals, what are ethics? It is when I am faced with someone who is dying and I have to decide whether or not to release the shutter of my camera.

New Mexico - We currently have 0 New Mexico vacation homes, condos and villas listed on this page!
Every area in the United States has its own special character, a result of the social and historic forces that have shaped it. The southwestern state of New Mexico is no exception. Here, tourists staying in vacation homes in New Mexico can see for themselves the vast influence that Spain and Mexico have had on the development of this area of the nation.
All across New Mexico, one of the dominant forms of architecture is the Spanish pueblo style. This involves buildings being constructed of adobe bricks. These bricks, made of dried mud, make up both interior and exterior walls, but the exterior walls of a pueblo house are typically at least a foot thick. Sometimes, they are as much as three feet thick. This provides a heavy layer of insulation to keep the house cool even in the heat of the New Mexican summer. Pueblo houses are covered in stucco and topped with red tile roofs, though because of their weight, some houses are now replacing those roofs with metal ones that look almost exactly the same.
The largest cities in New Mexico, including Santa Fe and Albuquerque, have whole neighborhoods designed in this style. Even the McDonald's restaurant in Taos is made of adobe and stucco, a sight that makes many tourists do a double take when they visit this city near Santa Fe, which features a thriving artists' colony. For those who appreciate art, another popular attraction in the state is the Georgia O'Keefe museum in Santa Fe, which presents visitors with a retrospective of her life's work.
Below you will find writings from other New Mexico vacation rental owners about the area they know best! It's a great way to learn first hand about the New Mexico region and all that it has to offer! | 2019-04-19T15:07:23 | http://vacationrentaldirect.com/vacation-rentals/171/New-Mexico.htm |
Women’s March Anti-Semites Have A New Defender Who ‘Firmly’ Believes THIS MAN Is Behind The Backlash, by Ashe Schow.
The two bogeymen the left use to smear any group of opponents and blame for any reverses are white supremacists and Russian agents. Both exist, it’s true. But both are extremely small in number and influence. Face it new left, the normals don’t like your behavior when they find out about it.
From the bizarre to the macabre. You couldn’t make this up. It’s Putin’s fault. Now I understand it all. | 2019-04-22T16:07:07 | https://wentworthreport.com/2019/01/02/womens-march-anti-semites-have-a-new-defender-who-firmly-believes-this-man-is-behind-the-backlash/ |

Another Olympic games has come and gone.
For 17 days, the eyes of the world were on London and the amazing feats of athleticism shown by the world’s most seasoned athletes.
I am a HUGE fan of the Olympics, specifically the Summer Olympics.
Sure, the Winter Games are cool–especially when they are held in your own hometown, like they were for me in Salt Lake City in 2002 (side note: can’t believe it’s already been 10 years!). But the Summer Games are where it’s at.
Normally I am not a huge sports fan. I enjoy watching all types of sports, but I am not a diehard fan for any particular sport or team. However, when the Olympics come around my uber-competitive and patriotic spirit comes out in full force.
These games were especially fun as I was rooting for two teams at once: USA and Bulgaria. I am a bicultural girl now, so showing my pride in both sides is a must!
Michael Phelps–Still a total stud and much less cocky this time around.
It’s absolutely insane how much 1/10 of a second can matter. The difference between getting a medal and going home empty handed.
I never grew tired of seeing cute William and Kate cheering on Great Britain from the stands. They are adorable.
Aly Raisman’s parents are hilarious, in a totally awkward and embarrassing sort of way.
What exactly is the proper protocol for the medals ceremony? Should the athletes place their hands over their hearts for the U.S. national anthem? Mouth the words? Yes…things like this concern me.
I’m sorry…I know it is incredibly tough and strenuous, but water polo is amongst the more lame Olympic events.
Usain Bolt–An egomaniac of epic proportions, but deservedly so.
Gymnastics, swimming, and diving continue to be my favorite events. Rowing is fast becoming one.
One that note… male rowers=yum!
I never cease to get choked up when watching the U.S. flag being raised and our national anthem playing for all the world to hear.
Here’s to London 2012 and the amazing show of athleticism and national pride!
Perhaps I can experience Rio 2016 in person!
What are your thoughts on London 2012? Any standout moments or favorite events?

So instead, I decided I simply wanted to send you, my readers, a HUGE, GIGANTIC, MONSTROUS thank you.
After 300 posts (mostly filled with random drivel), I am still delighted that a) I have kept up with it, and b) that people give one crap about what I have to say.
Here’s to 300 posts over almost 2 years and to another 300+ in the future.

Founded in 2012 by Artistic Director/Executive Director Dianela Acosta, the Boulder Opera is an exciting new venture that approaches the ancient art of Opera with fresh, modern interpretations and a spin on the classics. Our mission is to bring new audiences, especially young audience members, to the theater and other venues in Boulder County.
Every season the Boulder Opera will produce one full-length Opera and two abridged Operas in our Children’s Series chosen from the standard repertoire.
The Children’s Series is all about building new audiences and focuses on making opera fun, accessible, and affordable. Repertoire for the Children's Series is chosen from well-known and familiar works. The performances are one hour long and, with the help of a narrator, are engaging and educational at the same time!
Our full-length productions explore rarely performed Operas and use innovative multimedia in unique venues with the goal of developing new audiences for this age-old genre.
All our productions will feature an ensemble orchestra, and will offer opportunities to local professional artists and musicians to collaborate. | 2019-04-22T00:11:44 | https://www.bouldercoloradousa.com/listings/boulder-opera-company/1901/ |

The Manhattan collection is crafted from Tasmanian blackwood timbers. For those of you in the know you can attest to the timber's truly brilliant character, it actually comes up quite well in the photos but it's hard to give the timber the justice it deserves. It has lighter and darker streaks of colour running through and is beautifully finished with a satin varnish which allows its natural colour to beam through. In terms of the general quality, build and finish these are excellent and are one of the best quality ranges we stock, the finish in particular is superb. The drawers have metal runners, dovetail joins and the bases have been lined with black felt. Although the drawers don't have racks they will fit cds and dvds standing spine up. The centre shelves are also removable and adjustable making it a perfect option for those with larger hi fi gear. Brand new and will suit extremely fussy buyers. This is part of a decent sized range and we can arrange matching pieces if required. | 2019-04-19T21:00:27 | https://www.livingelements.com.au/buy/manhattan-tasmanian-blackwood-2200-tv-unit/4110 |
The recent merger between Heinz and Kraft foods could have serious ramifications for consumers and producers.
The new Kraft Heinz Company would be the third-largest food company in America and the fifth-largest worldwide, with an expected market value of over $80 billion. The merger was coordinated by Heinz owner 3G Capital—a Brazilian private investment group with its fingers already deep in the food and beverage sector—and Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway.
The new Kraft Heinz Company would be the third-largest food company in America and the fifth-largest worldwide, with an expected market value of over $80 billion.
This is the second time in as many years that these two firms have worked together on a major food company acquisition. In 2013, 3G and Berkshire orchestrated a hostile takeover of Heinz in a $28 billion deal. Independently, 3G is deeply invested in the fast food sector. In 2010, the group acquired Burger King, which it then merged with Tim Hortons in 2014 to create Restaurant Brands International, now a $23 billion international quick-service restaurant company. 3G also has close ties with Anheuser-Busch InBev, the largest beer brewer in the world and also a Brazilian-owned company. Four founding partners of 3G sit on ABI’s board.
Deal-makers say that one of the benefits of this merger is huge savings in cost-cutting—“synergy potential,” in industry jargon—to the tune of $1.5 billion. But where will this money come from? Analysts point to economies of scale, but there’s also 3G’s looming history of slicing jobs in the name of greater shareholder profits. After 3G led InBev’s takeover of Anheuser-Busch, it cut 1,400 jobs, mostly in St. Louis. And after its acquisition of Heinz, it slashed 600 jobs around North America. As for Tim Hortons, 350 Canadian workers lost their jobs in January.
And job cuts aren’t the only reason 3G has come under fire for its merger activity. Just last year, the group found itself embroiled in conflict after critics wondered whether its re-location of Restaurant Brands International to Canada was an attempt to evade United States corporate taxes.
The alliance of these two giant companies means even further consolidation in a market that is already dominated by a small number of corporate players. We commonly associate these brands with their anchor sectors, over which they have impressive market power: Kraft alone controls 80 percent of packaged macaroni and cheese sales, and Heinz controls 60 percent of ketchup sales. But according to a report from Food & Water Watch, these companies’ influence is felt in many other supermarket aisles. Kraft is among the top four companies producing mayonnaise, salad dressing, pickles, cottage cheese, sour cream, “natural cheese,” bacon, and lunch meat. Heinz is among the top four companies producing meat sauces, pasta sauces, frozen appetizers, and “frozen handheld food.” United, the Kraft Heinz Company would bring in $22.2 billion annually in sales.
In recent years, giant retailers like Walmart have learned how to place enormous pressure on distributors and producers to meet a low price point.
Given that Kraft and Heinz don’t compete head-to-head on many products, most antitrust experts believe that this merger will be approved by the Federal Trade Commission. Not that the agency has given them much reason to think otherwise in recent years. “The FTC has rubber-stamped a tidal wave of mergers,” Woodall says. In the food sector alone, Shuanghui LLC’s (now WH Group) acquisition of Smithfield Foods and the Sysco/US Foods merger have raised eyebrows among both antitrust analysts and food advocates.
And so monopoly finds a seat at the dinner table. This summer’s barbecues will feature Oscar Meyer hot dogs, Boca burgers, A1 steak sauce, and Heinz ketchup—except now, the buffet of products will all be owned by the same company. | 2019-04-26T12:49:56 | https://psmag.com/economics/why-you-should-be-paying-attention-to-the-proposed-heinzkraft-merger |

What is a VIP Experience with Heather? It is MORE than just hearing from passed loved ones! While bringing through the deceased is Heather’s primary talent, this is truly an opportunity for learning, healing, and the possibility of peace and closure between yourself and those in Spirit. It is also an opportunity to hear wisdom from spirit (loved ones, guides, and angels, for example) channeled through Heather to help guide YOUR life, if you wish to ask a question or to toward the end of the session. Heather believes that the healing is in the details. It can be difficult to truly find peace if we are left wondering if it really was our loved one(s) coming through. Heather is fastidious in pulling through evidential details so you have no doubt at all as to the identity of at least one if not more of your spirit people coming through to connect with you. You spend two full hours in a very small group that gives everyone the opportunity to learn heal and even laugh together. There are often common themes in the groups. This is not comparable to a private reading in personal focus, but everyone does receive messages and connections with the other side and Heather.
(Please understand guarantees cannot be made with spirit work).

In order to address what the Cheektowaga Sloan UFSD describes as a "reading problem", a new workshop has been integrated into every single kindergarten through fifth grade classroom.
The Lucy Calkin Reading Workshop was introduced last school year, thanks to a $100,000 grant from New York State. After just one year, the district is seeing improvement in students' reading ability.
"This is the first time in six years, due to this program I can say with confidence, that we didn't send any non-readers from kindergarten to first grade," Jeff Mochrie, principal of Theodore Roosevelt Elementary School, said.
The workshop focuses on immersing students with books and developing a love for reading. It involves group lessons in the classroom along with individualized instruction for each student based on his or her own reading level.
Superintendent Andrea Galenski says the consistent approach between classes and grade levels is beneficial for students.
"The common language is there," she said. "Again, students are familiar. It's a comfort level for them. And we just keep building year after year after year."
"In our district we really emphasize having books in their hands and being immersed in the reading," Carolyn Segal explained. She is the principal of Woodrow Wilson Elementary School.
In addition to the $100,000 grant from New York State, the district will receive an additional $75,000 from the state to expand the program and introduce a complementary writing workshop.
"I think we need to develop an entire generation of lifelong learners and that starts right here in kindergarten," Assemblywoman Monica Wallace said. She helped secure the state funding. "I feel like it is the great leveler. It creates the opportunities for students."
So far, the district says students are responding positively to the new approach.
"The one thing we hear over and over again from the children is we love to read," Jannelle Finn, the district's executive director of curriculum, accountability and professional development, said.
In addition to each school's central library, every classroom now has expansive libraries with books geared toward the particular students in those classes. The district is also introducing a reading workshop space where students and teachers will be able to find new books organized by genre and reading level. | 2019-04-19T20:54:59 | https://www.wkbw.com/news/eye-on-education/cheektowaga-sloan-introduces-reading-program-with-big-results |
As “The No Surprise Guys”, the only tricks we like happened last month on Halloween. We do Halloween right in Sacramento, and those sorts of surprises can be fun–but most surprises aren’t! That goes double if the surprise comes on a monthly water bill. If your bill gave you a trick recently, there are a few things you can do to fix the situation.
The first place to look is where water could be running that you don’t know about. Drips are easy to check for, but they can cost you money big time.1 If your bill is higher than normal, or just higher than you’d like, start checking all your faucets and hose bibs for drips. Shut everything off and see if water still comes out. If it does, it may not be urgent, but it is something you’re paying for. A faucet that drips four times a minute can cost hundreds of gallons a year.
If your faucets are all turned off, and don’t seem to be dripping, you can check to see if water is flowing. Go out to your meter and take a look at the red triangle. If it’s moving, that means that water is flowing somewhere between the meter and the house. Go back and double check all the faucets and hose bibs, as well as other water-using devices like washers and water heaters. If you’re sure nothing is using water, but the flow indicator is still moving, you likely have a more serious leak. We’ll get to that in a minute.
A lot of the time, toilets are a sneaky way to lose water. They’re a special case–they may be leaking and you wouldn’t know. If that’s going on, water slowly flows from the tank to the bowl, and the only symptom might be a higher-than-usual water level in the bowl.You may be able to hear the toilet “running” even if it hasn’t been used recently. We had a client who called about their toilet–which never stopped making noise! We told them that toilets should only make noise when flushed, and they should refill in five minutes or less. They’d been living with a running toilet for years, and footing the cost as well.
Theirs was an easy fix–they just needed a new rubber flapper, which is what stops the water in the tank from flowing unless the toilet is flushed. A plumber can replace a toilet flapper in a matter of minutes, and it’s a cheap part to replace. Our client was more than pleased when their noisy toilet shut off for the first time in two years.
Another sneaky place to look for excess water use is in your washers. Washing machines are often one of the biggest water-using devices in the house, as are dishwashers. If you’ve recently installed a new dishwasher or washing machine, it could be the reason for a higher water bill than in previous months. Make sure you’re following the right directions for these devices and that they aren’t leaking anywhere.
Of course, replacing old washers with new water-saving models can be a great way to cut down your water bill every month. Even if your current device is running well, you might be surprised how much less water newer washers use than older models. There are even rebate programs available depending on what city or county in the Valley you live in.
We briefly mentioned serious leaks. These are more rare than drips or running toilets, but they do happen. It’s possible that despite everything, you won’t find the leak or account for the extra bill cost. These likely mean that there’s a leak between your meter and your house, or somewhere else underground. If it’s under your lawn or in your yard there may be symptoms, such as “soft” spots or muddy areas outside.
If the leak is in your house you’ll likely know about it. More than one crawlspace has been filled with water from a freeze-break or deviated pipe. You may hear the sound of water running somewhere in the house, but again you may not. The same is true for water lines in the walls or ceiling. Perhaps the best way to notice a major leak of any kind is a drastic increase in your water bill from one month to the next that you can’t explain any other way.
If you experience any of these signs, call a plumber immediately. Serious leaks are just that–serious. No matter where it is, from the house to the crawlspace to the yard, major water damage can occur. This damage could also become structural–especially if there’s water pooling underneath the concrete slab on which your house is built! The benefits to catching this early are major. You’re saving your home, your money, and you’re saving water for the drought-ridden state. So give us a call. Because whether your leak is minor or major, Bell Brothers can help. | 2019-04-19T00:58:50 | https://bellbroshvac.com/heating-air-conditioning-hvac-blog/water-leak-repair-what-to-do-about-a-leaky-faucet-running-toilet-or-underground-water-leak-in-your-sacramento-home/ |

This Saturday we will turn our focus onto some beautiful Alsatian wines. The wines of Alsace are among the most aromatic in the world, and also some of the most food driven wines made. These are wines that wine geeks and wine professionals often swoon over, but don't always translate to the everyday wine drinker. Alsatian wines such as these are some of our favorites for this time of year, as their weightier style and richness make for a wonderful transition wine from the dense reds many of us drink in Winter, leading towards the crisp, zesty whites that are so delicious in the Summer. We will focus, as the Alsatians do, mostly on the white wines of the region, but we have included one beautiful Pinot Noir, the one red wine Alsace is known for along with their incredible whites. We've also included two superstar wines that we wouldn't often get to taste, but wanted to go all out for this event - but be forewarned, these are limited supply and when they are gone, they will truly be gone! Our good friend Greg Pfaender of Empire Distirbutors will be pouring and educating, so you don't want to miss out on this one! | 2019-04-21T02:25:51 | https://www.hopevalleywineandbeverage.com/tastings/wines-of-alsace |

Your Commonage .ie: REPS/ AEOS Payments to begin.
The minister for agriculture has announced that 50 million euro will be paid out to farmers in REPS 4 and AEOS 1 and 2 next week. This represents the initial 75% payment, it is hoped that the remaining 25% will be paid in the near future. | 2019-04-25T17:49:31 | http://www.yourcommonage.ie/2013/11/reps-aeos-payments-to-begin.html |
I was talking to a friend who's about a decade older than I am. I don't remember exactly what prompted the subject, but I think the context was a discussion of fear. He said, "When I was a kid, we did 'duck and cover" drills in school."
I thought about it for a minute before responding. "We never did drills. I think we knew there was no point. If someone decided to push the button, we were just all going to die. Nothing we could do about it."
I wanted to laugh, but it would have been the wrong kind of laughter, and any kind of laughter at all was not what I wanted to be doing with Japanese tourists (no, really) in the museum. So I stopped a little past the diorama and turned to my husband and the friend taking the tour with us. We're all the same age group for this sort of thing. I told them about the months-old conversation.
They nodded. My husband said, "I checked on a map recently. We're not too bad off where we are now."
I looked at him. "If it were just one bomb, one warhead."
Another nod and a sour face. "Yeah."
The operable phrase when I was in school was "mutually assured destruction." Scads of nuclear weapons as a security blanket. I suppose it's not surprising we found that sort of comfort rather cold. Hey, there's this guy who calls ketchup a vegetable and names his best hope of defense against a nuclear attack after a fantasy with space trappings and on and on and on. We're supposed to trust him to understand the full consequences of his actions. Oh. Yay.
The first day of ninth grade social studies class, American government, my teacher announced to the class that it would be run as a democracy. No, he couldn't tell us how that was going to work because we were going to decide that. No, he couldn't even tell us the scope of the decisions we'd be making as we voted.
I don't do pass/fail scenarios with open-ended expectations.
I think he thought it was cute when I turned in my chair to face the wall. A protest! Ooh! Yay, democracy! I don't think it stayed cute for more than a couple of days, but cute wasn't my point. If I wasn't allowed to transfer into the other "advanced" civics class (the school cut us off after one or two people), he could find out how much of a pain democracy could be. Then he, I, and the school could decide what that was worth for a grade.
Very shortly after the year started, all of the ninth-grade classes participated in a nuclear simulation at the same time. Our class split up into nations. Each nation got a set of scenarios: pressure on the borders, powerful foes--internal and external--posed to pounce on any misstep. As a nation, each group decided on their response: pacific, aggressive, or something in between.
The one lesson I'll never forget from that class, however, is how easy it is to convince ourselves that we don't have any other "real" options. That could be because I've never stopped hearing that as a justification for political decisions, particularly for decisions I wouldn't have made.
I don't know what difference it made to me or my generation to know it was out of our hands whether we lived or died. It would be easy to claim that the materialism of Generation X stems from nuclear nihilism, but we were too young to set the tone of the 80s. It wasn't people my age buying DeLoreans, Rolexes, and coke in bulk.
I don't know that we even had the words to talk about it among ourselves before the situation became less stark. We don't talk about it now. Talking about our teenage years means talking about social pressures and pop culture. For all I know, it wasn't that big a deal to anyone else.
Except for that long, quiet trip through a museum and two instant nods. Those tell me I didn't live through that alone.
My roommates in the mid-late 80's and I often played a board game called Pente. In a 3-person game, there was a situation we called "mutually assured destruction." If one person B didn't do anything to counter person A's move, person C would allow person A to win in protest against having their move forced.
I recall that we often discussed questions about nuclear war, ethics, death, happiness, etc. Were we such an odd bunch? I guess not.
I remember my parents telling me that as kids they didn't really think the "duck and cover" strategy would protect them very well - it was just something to do as an alternative to panicking. It probably would be helpful to people who lived a number of miles away from the closest blasts, where the greatest immediate threat was flying debris.
The weird thing about Reagan is that people saw him as the president most likely to start a nuclear war, but in reality he loathed nuclear weapons and was terrified by the prospect of nuclear war. Some of his aides were convinced he would not launch nuclear weapons even if the USA was attacked first. The whole "Star Wars" thing was misguided because the technology didn't exist to make it work (it still doesn't), but his support of it seems to have come from a desperate desire to have something other than Mutual Assured Destruction to rely on.
The other thing we all "knew" in those days was which bits of landscape in our area were "known" to be primary targets. For me, it was the Watervleit Arsenal to the north, the Selkirk Train Yards and the Power Plant to the south, and the State Office Campuses, one to the east and one to the west. We was surrounded!
People of my generation and background experienced the flash. If you know what that is, then you know what that is. It was actually pretty horrible. | 2019-04-23T14:27:26 | http://almostdiamonds.blogspot.com/2011/03/duck-and-cover.html |

This is a real simple project to get started on. Partly inspired from Alasdair Allan‘s work in the book Distributed Network Data. While the book concentrates on Adrunio I’m also interested in sensors from the Raspberry Pi side of things because the likes of storage and network is already there.
So, what I’m aiming to do is to wire up a basic passive infrared (PIR) motion detector to the Pi and with Python have it tell us when movement is detected. That’s easy enough. Broadcasting to the world, easy enough but I’m not really sure that all of Twitter really needs to know when there’s movement detected in your house, it’s the first step to being unfollowed.
To make this useful though I’ll make it send an SMS message direct to the phone instead. Then I’ll know when I’m being broken in to.
Pin 2 – 5v is connected to the red rail of the breadboard.
Pin 6 – Gnd is connected to the black rail of the breadboard.
Pin 26 – GPIO 7 is connected to my row 30/a of the breadboard.
The PIR motion sensor is connected very similar with the 5v going to the red rail, Gnd going to the black rail and the output pin (to trigger motion) is connected to 30/f on the breadboard (the same line as the GPIO7 pin from the Pi.
As hardware goes, we’re done. The rest is software.
The basic code has been based on the work that Matt Hawkins has done, no point reinventing the wheel on this one. Using the RPi.GPIO library in Python he gets the basic PIR sensor talking to the Pi.
You can see Matt’s original blog post here.
Firstly I’ve added a method that will send a text message to the TextLocal service. What we want to do is send an SMS message to a predefined number when the motion sensor is triggered.
Basically the sendSMS method expects the arguments of username, password, recipient number, sender’s number and the message you want to send. This is then sent as a URL POST request to the textlocal.com server. You’ll need an account and credits setup first before you can try this out. Remember that SMS costs money.
You’ll need to run this as the root user so Python can access the GPIO pins.
I’ve stayed silent for too long, I don’t think I can actually take much more. While I find the informative and nigh on daily go-to site of “Arlene Foster Holding Things” it does graphically show what’s wrong with PR photos in Northern Ireland, they are boring as ****.
A quick look at SyncNI and it’s ream upon ream of folk staring at camera while holding an iPad/Bit(s) of cardboard or worse still, Polystyrene letters. As the first port of call it shows a complete lack of creativity and this is projected out to the world (and yes I mean the world, this is the internet after all).
Now I understand the photographer’s need to be in and out in fifteen minutes and the pay scale is rubbish but there seriously needs some imagination from the organisation who’s getting photographed, the photographer and the marketing company. I’ll go as far as saying that there aren’t many that can do it well. It’s a rare talent to tell a cohesive story through a photograph. NI creatives, is copy/story/photograph well it’s time to your games.
So companies, have a really good think about the message you want to convey. The photographer is there to take photograph and not to be your marketing and creative department.
And photographers, the straight in and straight out photograph no longer applies. You’re only letting yourselves down shooting on program mode with no thought for light.
Give me narrative, give me a story and a picture to remember….. here’s your starter for 10. Go study Wired.
The concept of Kickstarter isn’t new and I’m happy to say that it’s launched thousands of dreams and probably deflated a few as well. As with these sorts of things it got me thinking about what makes stuff fundable in this sort of realm. Especially when it comes to Northern Ireland projects because that’s where I am.
More so what got me thinking was seeing the pitch for the Sugar Supper Club in Newry. A brilliant idea and one that I’d love to see funded but it got me thinking some very fundamental questions.
Where are your potential customers/backers?
For bricks and mortar stores, restaurants and anything that requires footfall then this is the first obvious question. And I wonder if it’s the reason this sort of thing struggles to get funded. Theatre productions fall foul on this point as well. We need to work on the theory that a percentage of the local population will fund and dine.
Newry’s population was as of 2010 27,575 and this becomes important when we start talking percentages of population who will back. I’m starting with 2% as a figure so that’s 515 people would could potentially back this project. This doesn’t count people out of town, people who like to fund projects for their own happiness regardless if they ever go to the end product or now. These things can’t be discounted but with a bricks and mortar project it’s probably unlikely because…..
A gadget usually does well, just look at the 3D Doodler Pen or the Pebble Watch. Products do well if they fulfil a need. And with worldwide shipping for the initial project then the audience is wide open compared to a bricks and mortar project, therefore the probability of successful funding is raised.
How much is to be raised?
Too little and it might look like a credible product, too much and many won’t take the risk. I want to get more data on this but I get the sneaking suspicion that projects looking for less than £/$10,000 seem to make the grade in having a good chance of being funded.
Okay it’s my rule but I think it’s valid. 65% of the funding has to be raised in 35% of the time of the funding period.
So 65% of £12,500 is £8125. The question is can it be raised in ten and a half days. The rest is a long tail and also a psychological ticker on potential backers from that point on. “If they’ve put money against it so quick it must be good”. The first 35% is when the hard hitting marketing has to be done (Facebook, Twitter, begging letters and all that jazz).
After that it’s common sense. Is the project owner in that sector? Do they have a decent track record? Have any other projects been funded and completed.
I’m off to have a look at some data, have a play and come up with a barebones algorithm. In the meantime go and fund the Sugar Supper Club, the food looks lovely.
Pi, Bluetooth, R and Twitter…. gotta be fun in here somewhere.
Yup I found it. Scan and tell who’s discoverable. No use whatsoever to the outside world (that I’m aware of) but the basis of some funky retail marketing startup who think Bluetooth might be the way forward.
First of all if you haven’t got a Bluetooth dongle get yourselves to Tesco and buy their little Technik nano bluetooth dongle for a fiver. Works a treat.
Have a couple of games of Mario Kart or make a drink while it installs. Could take a while.
If you were reading the Pi Twitter Sentiment Server posts then you’ll have all this set up. If not you can read it here. One thing you need to do is make sure your Twitter developer app can read/write to Twitter.
And it will produce a list of the MAC address and the name of the device.
We can run within R….
The strsplit command will give you a two dimensional vector with three elements: space, MAC address and the discoverable name. So [] means give me value of the second row and third column of the vector.
Plenty of scope from here to save the MAC addresses to a datastore so the same names don’t keep appearing everytime the scan happens. Also if you read back on previous posts you’ll see it’s easy to knock up a cron job to run this every ten minutes or so.
It looks like the hcitool caches the scan for at least 30 seconds so there’s no use pounding the scanning for new devices for any duration less than that.
Random samples from R data frames.
There are times you just have too much data, random samples are nice to test assumptions and algorithms first.
So in R you can create a function to return a random sample of a data frame for such emergencies.
(40 being the number of rows you want in your sample).
This is my dear friend Frankie. He’s not a data scientist (that I’m aware of), nor is he a programmer (that I’m aware of) but looking back over the years this is the man who taught me the art of prediction with data.
We worked together in a record shop and his knowledge is encyclopaedic. Anyone who has visited the Eleanor Arms will see from the CD collection for the Minestrone Of Sound. So from late 1991 – 1995 I learned the art of working in a record shop. Key objective, don’t get lumped with stock you’ll never sell especially when it with CD singles.
Knowledge takes time but you can monitor and sense what’s going on in a Nate Silver kinda way, if you can see the patterns of the past that sort of gives you a sense for the next week, two weeks at a push. It’s not rocket science.
Each CD had a card and it listed the date and quantity of that product that came in. From that card, watching shoppers and generally sense what was playing on the radio (and the record company reps coming in) we built up the order. This vital data drives your order, to few and customers will go elsewhere and buy, too many and you’re left with an overstock when the record dips out of the top ten. Once a record dives, it dives quick. Remember we weren’t dealing with computers or multiple POS reporting. This was all done by hand with a large doses of head, heart and gut reaction.
He also taught me how to tune the shopping area to the type of customer who was in. Slap a Daniel O’Donnell CD when you see a bus tour past, it does not fail. Stick it a on video wall and it was one of the most strangest sights I’ve ever seen.
Like cinema there were numerous new products coming out every week so what to choose, what to get a couple of and what to ignore is truly an art.
Frankie taught me and I learned the hard way but he was gracious enough to give room to make the odd mistake. Fact of life it’s going to happen. The long hours during Christmas, the odd customers, I’m still asked to recall stories of working in a record shop, I loved it.
He also introduced me to the music of Curtis Magee….. but I think that’s another story for another day.
Big data, small Data, it’s all data.
When we think of Hadoop we think of huge clusters of machines, in a data centre somewhere dimming the lights of the cities they reside in, meanwhile data is being consumed, mined with the hope one day that sense will come out of it.
Take a look at your desk….
Now take a look at your desk, now I can’t vouch for everyone but I’m going to take a rough guess, there’s a phone or two. Perhaps a tablet, a Kindle maybes even a Raspberry Pi.
Everything that’s connected is a node. Every device has some form of identification therefore it can be registered against a service of some form to know that it’s state is either idle or doing something. I’m thinking about all that time the Nexus S is sat on my desk doing nothing when it could be doing something useful, processing data.
Android being a good candidate for downtime processing as it can handle background tasks pretty well.
What if I said there IS a cure for……?
We’ve just not found it yet. Harking back to screensaver programs of old that did computations during the idle times (yes it has been done before), why not have the idle device work in the background pulling, processing and returning results back to a central server? Registered devices get paid for processing the data.
Think about it, a medical research firm could leave data with the main system and in turn farms out small segments of data for processing on connected and idle devices. Makes perfect sense to me considering that devices sit on our desks a lot of time on charge, while you’re asleep or working at your desk. Moore’s Law gives us the knowledge and foresight to know the power that these devices will have in the future.
Hadoop in your pocket is not far off (hopefully someone will port to iOS at some point, it has to be done).
It doesn’t really matter whether the data is big or small, while marketers will push the Big Data paradigm and how many billions it will potentially generate by 2017 or whatever there’s still a small matter of what can be done now.
Map/Reduce does have a significant role to play in processing health data in my opinion. But I also think there’s a plethora of devices not used to their full potential that, with the right code, just be able to do the job and send the results back.
I’m finding R more and more useful for just dragging data out of things. RSS data is a touchy subject with some, I still use it a lot and built Curatic to get me the stories I want to read, not lists of stories I don’t. Anyway, that’s not the point of this post.
R and XPath, good friends. Pull and RSS feed and get the titles, descriptions and the publication dates quickly. | 2019-04-19T18:49:24 | https://dataissexy.wordpress.com/2013/06/ |

Tries from Steve Fraher, Bruce Keir and Steve Dysel plus a perfect 100% kicking performance with 3 penalties and 3 conversions from Joe Daniel. The boys felt this one on a bone hard pitch against a side who really wanted to beat the Champions, but they dug in and made it sixteen wins on the trot and with Paviors losing at Oadby Wyggestonian eventually won the league by 11 points, fully deserving the title of League Champions 2018 - 2019.
The 2nd XV played league leaders Syston under lights on Wednesday night and just came up a point short as they lost an entertaining game 31 - 32, they finish their season next Saturday when they host Loughborough 2nds at Waverley Road, kick off 3pm.
A very young Colts side containing 11 Under 16's narrowly lost their last game of the season as they went down at home to Lutterworth 21 - 30 and what a prospect for next season as another excellent group of young men move up to the Colts.
A huge thanks to everyone concerned on the playing side at Waverley Road for a wonderful season, have a great summer and come back ready for a load of new challenges next season.

The Australian Technology Network of Universities (ATN) and the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) have today announced that QUT will cease its membership of the ATN.
ATN Chair, RMIT University Vice-Chancellor Martin Bean, thanked QUT for its many contributions to the ATN during its long association and noted that academic collaborations would undoubtedly continue between the ATN member universities and QUT.
QUT Vice-Chancellor, Professor Margaret Sheil, said this was an amicable parting of ways that is timely as QUT develops its new strategic plan.
“QUT will focus its advocacy effort in Queensland and through Universities Australia while continuing to build on strong connections with individual institutions,” Professor Sheil said. | 2019-04-23T14:20:56 | http://atn.edu.au/news-and-events/latest-news/atn-membership-change/ |

Starting and running a business is a difficult task especially for small businesses with a limited budget. A year into the startup can determine if your business is thriving or barely surviving. The current business start-up statistics indicate that 80 percent of new businesses shut down within a year. Though, this might be demoralizing and probably throwing you off a bit, it is extremely important to understand why this happens.
Most multinational companies and franchises you know worldwide started off as nothing but an idea which evolved into a plan or strategy which was effectively executed. When you kick start your business, it is important to exploit the most budget friendly and safe channels of execution which would count as your affordable loss. During the first stage of your strategy execution, you would begin to see the signs of your progress. Keep in mind that these signs might also be of failure which you should be brave enough to expect and bold enough to change.
For a business owner, there isn’t a better feeling in the world than your first customer paying for your product or service. It marks the end of the very first step into your business which gets you pumped up for more. However, two customers are better than one so after enjoying your first victory, get back to the planning table and analyze, collect feedback and improve your strategy.
If you are good at what you do and provide quality service or products to your customers, they would definitely tell others about you. Referrals lead to a recursion of business permutations or in simple words, one leads to two, two lead to four and so on. Moreover, customers doing it on their own makes your business good but your business driving them to refer your product or service makes your business smart. Many startups use beneficial incentives to get more customers from existing customers and even employees. Today, many top companies offer discounts, gifts and other offers to customers and employees who act as ambassadors of your business.
When customers who you do not know start buying your product or using your service without any contact or referral, it is one of the biggest victories during your business expansion. The idea that someone uses your service or product without any prior knowledge proves that you are on the right track.
Your business strategy can make you millions. Happy and dedicated employees can turn that million into a billion. Employees who treat your business as their own can bring about the success you never imagined so it is very important to groom, motivate, reward and involve them in your strategies as much as you can. Employees serve as primary ambassadors if they know that their creativity, hard work and task execution would result to praise and career growth. No employee wants to remain where they started off so if your employee management strategy is as important as your business strategy.
In this digital age, marketing channels have evolved so it is important to keep up with everyday trends and development. If your business is on the first page of Google and search results, then you know that you’re headed in the right direction. Social media, SEO and content marketing is one of the cheapest ways to let prospects know about your business. Statistics indicate that over 60 percent of customers visit pages from the first page of search results.
A stable business is one for all seasons. Companies who maintain their presence and execute consistent sales or service in the market are more likely to succeed than those who are dependent on variable factors like time, demographics, seasons and trends. It’s all about how you present your business and the importance of your products in the daily lives of your customers. Furthermore, another sign that your business is successful is that you’re on vacation and it is still making money.
Communication in most cases is the leading cause to a business’s success or failure. Effective and real-time communication at a manageable cost is what all companies aim for to reach out to their customers and even exchange information within the workplace. They use different channels like calls, emails and bulk SMS to constantly update, notify and promote their services. | 2019-04-21T02:24:54 | http://www.besttextmarketing.org/2018/10/7-signs-that-your-business-is-successful/ |

Sonic's motto might be "Gotta Go Fast," but this is probably not what he means when he says that.
This includes being able to skip entire portions of the game—even parts of the final boss fight. And it's likely that speedrunners will be able to beat the game even faster once they optimize the run (you can watch a speedrunner try right now, actually). It's absurd, but also kind of amazing.

As our technology gets smarter, subtly blending into our everyday lives, good design has never been more important. Design is critical in determining how we experience a product or service, but an often overlooked and undervalued part of any design experience is sound, and specifically UI sound. From a simple keyclick to a warning notification, UI sound design has become a key factor in how we interact with modern-day technology. It’s a specialist craft, that if done well, can help to inspire the overall design, improve usability and user experience, and strengthen a brand.
During my talk, I’ll highlight a clearly defined set of principles for successful UI sound design, whilst championing the case for bringing UI sound design deeper into the design process. I will also discuss the delicate relationship between UI sound design and audio branding, and how we, as sound design practitioners and marketers, can embrace the challenges ahead as our world becomes more dependable on UI sound.

Trap points are provided where goods trains and vehicles could run away and get onto passenger running lines. They are not usually provided where passenger lines interconnect. The intention is to stop the runaway vehicle before it can foul the running line.
Trap points are often implemented using catch points rather than a full turnout and spur or sand drag. Catch points may derail the vehicle and damage the track, but that is far preferable to a collision.
Creating a set of catch points in Templot means shortening a turnout template to contain only the switch part. You can do that manually using the F4 mouse action, or click the [ do > snap to catch points ] menu item. Usually you would use a short switch to save space, such as an REA size "A" switch. | 2019-04-19T15:09:57 | http://templot.com/companion/catch_points.php |
I rather claimed victory over my water-borne community since being a wee lad who plod the shores of the Corrotoman River. To a lessor degree have I rambled about the Rappahannock. The Chesapeake Bay was too far offshore for my dad. Early on, my boat even had limits of how far from the dock I could venture.
Though there are vast other bodies of water familiar to you, dear reader, my parameters were set long ago. Many times, have I mentioned coming home—that’s crossing the Robert O. Norris Jr. Memorial Bridge or the Tom Downing bridges, and swinging off Route 3 onto Route 354. Ah, home, I really can’t explain it. It is not an idea as much as a feeling. No matter the current stress level, when my windshield allows me that first glimpse of the Corrotoman a healing process begins. Lately that “homeness” rallies at the Norris Bridge, then strengthens at the left turn traffic light in downtown White Stone.
Our little boy moved here years ago; the pastor of Coan Church. Did I tell you how proud I am of him, of them? Well that’s another story, eh?
Anyway, one Sunday long past and after church Lee and I hooked onto Miss Hazel’s boat and tugged it to foreign waters. Hazel was inspecting a wounded knee cadet at Fork Union Military Academy.
Lee first lived in a charming place, with a wide view of the Glebe, just off the Potomac and Coan rivers. His neighbors were Royall (Bill and Myrtle). I must admit I felt sort of traitorous, almost guilty, to confess liking that area. We launched HRHQH—named for my personal banker: Her Royal Highness Queen Hazel—from the concrete ramp at the little Farmer’s abode and tested the waters nibbling the Glebe, while my daughter-in-law rallied a bit to rustle up a picnic basket for hungry navigators. Back to the dock we went to fetch the pretty girl and the basket of goodies. Then, we were offshore for sure.
Lee and I began to spot landmarks, tree lines and capture buoy numbers. After some exploration of the Coan we tested the waves of the mighty Potomac. I felt as if I were Columbus reincarnated. What a rush to push out into new waters, albeit it foreign. We trolled past Lewisetta and pushed the bow port-side and headed toward Washington.
For our first time outside personal waters, we mutually decided that Kinsale was good enough for dockage, tankage and since the picnic basket held munchies we longed for real food. We dallied about looking at the boats docked at Olverson’s Marina then pulled back and went port-side again into Kinsale. I told my son and family about the late Mr. Crowther and how and why he had moved his Ford business from Kinsale to Kilmarnock following the roads; as water traffic waned decades prior. We tied alongside the marina, trudged up the lawn and claimed a table with a water view. As new discoverers, we partook of prayers and food. Outside, dusk pulled the covers. Lights popped on. Night whispered.
I noticed a tenderness in my daughter-in-law, who’s just a tad less adventurous than either one of the Farmer boys. The then teen Laura Farmer’s world was so wrapped ‘round her mom and dad—she had no fear or trepidation.
Soon we slipped the lines and ventured out into the Potomac once more. Passing this and that buoy we recognized the foreign water enough to feel comfortable to steer starboard, hopefully far enough offshore to dodge crab pots and to avoid fish nets and oyster stakes.
It had been a beautiful day, the air crisp. The sun bore down; but not so as to be oppressive. Dull fall colors began to drape the shore. We were enthralled with the collection of new sights and sounds, which we were memorizing about foreign waters. Then the fog set in.
I stood from behind the windshield and held tight to the wheel using hand signals to inform Lee of speed changes. We continued down river. I listened some to the conversation below, while sailing with a bone in my teeth. Ah! It doesn’t get any better.
Behind me waved the sun; amber hues touching both sea and shore. The path which we unzipped in the river, glowed. Ahead lay dark. Just like clockwork, we passed inventoried buoys and slowed to make port. Welcomed by the lights of Lewisetta we leaned to starboard and soon recognized the tree line and calling of home as we came into the Glebe. Very thankful for safe passage and a fun trip, we dropped landlines onto the dock and were voraciously welcomed by a herd of mosquitoes. A mere inconvenience, when you consider safe harbor.
The day reminded me of my faith and of life’s best chart—my Bible. My day began with church and ended with a sunset on foreign waters. Life, just like the journey of the day, is navigable when you know the tree line, shoreline and buoys. All the beacons are there. All the landmarks divine. Read the book. Fall in love with its heroes. Let it give you direction to safe harbor. It will. I promise. | 2019-04-20T22:52:50 | https://rrecord.com/rev-john-farmers-reflections-column-74/ |

The national government’s budget balance swung back to a deficit in the first semester of the year, with public spending expanding by double digits from a year ago, data from the Bureau of the Treasury (Btr)showed.
Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez today said the “wide gamut” of political and economic initiatives outlined by President Duterte in his first-ever State of the Nation Address (SONA) will let the new government put on the fast lane its 10-point socioeconomic agenda meant to disperse income and spell progress for all over the next six years.
Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez III has formally created the Anti-Red Tape Team at the Department of Finance (DOF) and has appointed Undersecretary Gil Beltran as its chairperson, in line with President Duterte’s very first directive for all government offices to provide fast and hassle-free frontline services to the public. | 2019-04-24T01:57:29 | https://www.dof.gov.ph/index.php/2016/07/ |

Scientists have discovered that bacteria communicate with each other in a way, similar to that of nerve cells in the human brain.
See, even bacteria can “talk”!
The bugs “talk” by means of sending electrical signals in and out of their bodies by gate-keeper “ion channel” proteins. Researchers in the US conducted an experiment that showed how a colony of bacteria acted in a coordinated fashion when it reached to a certain size.
Microbes at the outer edge of the “biofilm” colony consisting of hundreds of thousands of bugs had unrestricted access to nutrients while those at the core were at risk of going hungry. So, to overcome this problem, the outlying bacteria periodically stopped growing to allow nutrients to flow to the core. In return, this will allow the bacteria in at the core of the biofilm to survive attacks by chemicals and antibiotics.
The discovery, reported in the journal Nature, alters the way we think not only about bacteria but also about the brain, said Dr Suel.
All of our senses, behaviour and intelligence emerge from electrical communications among neurons in the brain mediated by ion channels. Now we find that bacteria use similar ion channels to communicate and resolve metabolic stress. Our discovery suggests that neurological disorders that are triggered by metabolic stress may have ancient bacterial origins, and could thus provide a new perspective on how to treat such conditions,” he explained.
The mechanism the bacteria used was surprisingly similar to a process in the human brain known as “cortical spreading depression” which is linked to migraines and epileptic seizures.
What’s interesting is that both migraines and the electrical signalling in bacteria we discovered are triggered by metabolic stress. This suggests that many drugs originally developed for epilepsy and migraines may also be effective in attacking bacterial biofilms, which have become a growing health problem around the world because of their resistance to antibiotics,” said Dr Suel.
