Dr. Lisa Piercey has been on the job as the Tennessee Health Commissioner for less than two months but she already knows what she wants to focus on.\n"The opioid epidemic and the big four," Piercey said, "Physical inactivity, excessive caloric intake, tobacco abuse and substance issues. Those are the drivers of early death and a lot of the excess cost in Tennessee. The governor and I have talked about how to address this issue in order to take some cost out of the health care system."\nPiercey spoke to The Jackson Sun after she was honored by the Greater Gibson County Chamber of Commerce in her hometown of Trenton on Thursday.\nWhen Gov. Bill Lee nominated Piercey he said both of them shared his priority to put Tennessee's focus on lowering the cost of healthcare.\nPiercey has long been an advocate for children health as a way to solve long-term health problems and cost.\n"When you talk about hypertension, stroke, heart disease and even COPD, it's habits that start in childhood," Piercey said "With children it's about starting good habits like exercise and eating patterns when they're young because we know children who are obese are much more likely to be adults who are obese."\nPiercey's started as pediatrician and credits her background as why there should be a focus on neonatal care, which a specialized care for an infant's first month of life. .\nShe has been specifically focused on Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome. NAS is a condition in which a baby has withdrawal symptoms after being exposed to certain substances. Many times, the baby is exposed when the mother uses medications or illicit drugs during pregnancy and after the baby is born.\nTennessee started tracking the issue in 2013. Each year the number of cases increased. For the first time since the study was started in 2018, the number of cases decreased.\n"We know when babies have a healthier start, they're more likely to be healthier when they grow up," said Piercey.

Human behavior is sometimes influenced by new technologies.\nJust go to a local mall or sit on a New York City subway car and see how many people are glued to their cellphones and tablets.\nCertainly advances in technology have, in many cases, made our daily lives easier.\nBut, have you ever considered the infrastructure needed to power the devices we now depend on day to day?\nAs the CEO of U.S.-based uranium mining company Energy Fuels, I can’t help but ponder how all of today’s new technological advances, including bigger TVs, electric cars, and Internet of Things (IoT) connected devices, will all work reliably without a significant nuclear power component in the nation’s power grid.\nNations around the world are investing heavily in renewables. However, especially on the heels of this week’s news that Westinghouse has filed for Chapter 11 protection, in today’s increasingly energy intensive economy, America needs to find new and better ways to make nuclear power work with other clean energy sources in order to make our power grid operate reliably, 24/7.\nIf population growth in the U.S. is forecast to escalate 31% to 417 million by 2051 according to U.S. Census Bureau, and the average person is expected to have 1,000 devices connected to the internet during the same period, shouldn’t reliable energy get more focus?\nThis is an issue almost everyone takes for granted. But, reliable electricity doesn’t just “happen.” Sure, energy storage innovation is advancing, along with renewable technologies.\nBut the truth is it will still be a number of years (if ever) before energy storage can handle the intermittent power supplied from wind and solar at levels that can supply large communities – or cities.\nAdditionally, there are only so many transmission lines that can be built to distribute energy evenly across the grid.\nTherefore, using more domestic nuclear as a baseload energy source, complemented by renewables, should be a bigger part of the energy infrastructure equation.\nChina seems to be enjoying success integrating nuclear into their energy grid, while also addressing a growing, modernizing economy and chronic air pollution problems. And, they are doing it using standardized technologies – based in part on Westinghouse’s AP1000 reactor design.\nIf the Chinese can do it, why can’t we do it here in the U.S.?\nNow, I’m not suggesting that we build new nuclear plants within the confines of every new microgrid that pops up around the country.\nHowever, with continued enthusiasm for “small modular reactors (SMRs)”, most recently seen by the announced collaboration between GE and Hitachi, I do believe small, “scalable" nuclear power (average size 300 MWe or less) could be an intriguing and cost-effective option which meets stringent safety standards while also balancing a power grid which was designed during the 1900’s – and, in no way, shape or form was built to handle the growing power demands of the 21st Century.\nThe youth of America is largely supporting clean energy, new technologies, and ways they can lower their energy bills and CO2 output. Therefore, if we are planning for a growing population, a huge spike in IoT connected devices, and new energy-hungry technologies, grid stability and reliability must receive more focus.\nTo that end, I continue to see a critical role for nuclear power in the future of energy, as renewables continue to displace fossil fuels. Today’s culture, whether seen through a private, corporate or government lens, is increasingly becoming digitized including artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, robotics, and digital twin technology – all of which will require increasing levels of reliable power sources around the clock.\nWhile renewables are growing, there’s concern they are actually creating blackouts, a major concern considering our modern economy is becoming more and more energy intensive and reliant on stable sources of electricity. Germany, a leading nation when it comes to renewables, is demonstrating that closing nuclear power plants and rolling out huge numbers of wind turbines and solar panels may be counterproductive.\nIn fact, CO2 emissions in Germany are rising, energy prices are increasing, and because of the focus on renewables, the country is experiencing grid instability, often requiring power companies to be paid to shut down their operations in order to prevent damage to the grid.\nOf course, there continues to be widespread efficiency and conservation efforts in Germany and around the World, yet these initiatives will only take us so far. Trump’s cancellation of the Clean Power Plan this week only adds yet another facet to the debate. While Obama’s Clean Power Plan purported to support nuclear, Trump’s Energy Independence Policy specifically supports the production of domestic “nuclear energy resources.” Yet, Trump needs to go further in supporting nuclear, and actions must speak louder than words on this important issue.\nPerhaps, last years’ legislation in Illinois and New York that attempts to level the playing field for nuclear, can provide excellent examples for the Trump Administration to consider when planning for future energy legislation.\nWe simply can’t ignore the new pressures on our power grids, including decentralized microgrids, which are growing quickly.\nEnergy storage solutions and conservation efforts will help, but much more needs to be done to effectively balance the grid. It would be extremely foolish if, despite seeing increasing energy needs on the horizon, we fail to provide the proper infrastructure.\nTherefore, the case for consistent sources of clean baseload power generation, like that supplied by the nuclear sector, is more critical than ever despite headlines that are mistakingly suggesting otherwise.\nStephen Antony is the President & CEO of Lakewood, Colorado-based Energy Fuels.

That 10-pin connector is also used in other parts of the van, if you want to pull from a wreck: C102 3. That doesn't look like any test port I've ever seen. I pulled this device I pictured earlier and replaced the o-ring with a new one and it stopped the leak. Depending on the application, we convert some blocks by drilling both holes with a homemade fixture, plugging both of them, and telling the customer to remove the plug from the hole he needs for his application. He has authored numerous technical articles on engine rebuilding for Engine Builder magazine for more than 20 years. The firing order is 1-2-3-4-5-6 3. Caradiodoc Sorry our replies overlapped.\nThere is no longer a vacuum hose on the regulator. In 2004, Chrysler revised the recommended oil change interval for normal service to 6,000 miles which is probably still too long for most urban drivers. I hope this helps you. The later model engines have seven bolts to support the shaft instead of four on the earlier shafts. Older Intrepids had a problem with injector o-rings shrinking in cold weather and leaking in the fuel rail. Also I have a 4 cylinder so there may be better access and fewer brackets to remove. Bolt back in the bracket and you should be good to go.\nThere was one more change, too; the lifters were downsized from 0. Hpim 3 8l Jeep Engine Service Diagrams for 3 8l jeep engine that brings alongside 14 pictures moreover 2008 wrangler engine as well as jeep 3. Emissions dropped by 17% at the same time. Diagnosis can be challenging because of the variety of conditions that can produce noise. Older systems used that to relax the regulator and lower fuel pressure when manifold vacuum went up. I am writing this from memory so bear with me.\nMaintaining traction on full-throttle launches was a challenge and generated some nice stripes when the traction control was switched off. It was designed as a larger, more powerful option to the in the and debuted in 1989 for the 1990 model year. It turns out, the fuel rail has an over-pressure relief valve on the top side of it. I am sure it is resolvable without buying a fuel rail. Anyway, the next day I could smell gas again and this time I was able to see exactly where it was coming from.\nSome owners of older minivans who were using 10W-30 or 5W-30 motor oil say they have quieted their valvetrain noise by switching to a lighter viscosity 5W-20 synthetic motor oil. Under this cap is the same exact donut seal, same size and everything. It appears rust is the problem. It will, but only after the oil pressure drops to practically nothing. Chrysler has used three different cam drives on these engines, so make sure the replacement timing gear set is the correct one for the application if you have to replace it. The plant made its last 3. I will certainly follow this up and let you know what happens with pictures.\nSo you have to refer to the factory legends to learn the identification symbols and then refer back to circuit diagrams to find the splice and ground locations. This is a non-serviceable part and can leak intermittently. I traced it down to the fuel rail which runs down the center of the valley. I checked with the dealer and did not find anything that applied. The center dipstick was drilled instead of the one in the front. In some cases, valvetrain noise on 2000 and older 3.\nEvery mechanic and parts guy told me it had to be replaced same as you. Low-end torque was good for an engine of its size, but it had a fairly low redline; the 3. Removing the oil pan will allow you to change the front timing cover. I am starting a business and need this van to haul stuff around. There seems to be a difference of opinion what it is. First introduced as a family back in 1990, these engines have been upgraded and improved to provide good torque for the necessary applications, reasonable fuel economy and a reputation for durability and appropriate performance. This member jrr4948 emailed me this response after I sent him the picture that you saw: If you are only leaking fuel from the cap in the picture you may be in luck! Each fuel injector has one blue seal on the injector.\nThe smell would come and go randomly. Now you have my curiosity. I Did as was described in the post above and put it back together. Thanks tq958 Yes it could be for purging caradiodoc. The electric fuel pump is energized through the oil pressure sending unit when the engine is running. I m sure you can find a parts supply that will sell them to replace.\nNothing in the manual identifies the item in your photo as a test port. The expensive fix is to replace the cylinder head. A noisy oil pump can be changed by removing the oil pan, but first you have to remove a brace and dust cover from the transaxle. It is held in with blue silicone type circular donut seals. I am going to attempt this repair soon.

Oct. 7 issue column: Under normal circumstances, no one, not even a grandparent, has the right to baptize a child contrary to the parents’ will.\nIt is not uncommon today to find faithful men and women who treasure their Catholic faith at odds with their adult children who have drifted away from the Church.\nNot only does it make holiday family gatherings more stressful, but it creates conflicts when, as grandparents, they welcome new members of the family at birth.\nAs a pastor, I see these painful scenarios regularly played out. It would help grandparents if they understand some basic teachings of the Church about baptism of their grandchildren, because sometimes well-intentioned grandparents violate the Church’s teachings about baptism without even realizing it.\nWhat joy to welcome the birth of a grandchild.\nSo many dreams are fulfilled, and each new baby brings great hope to the entire family. Yet what are grandparents to do when their son or daughter does not want to baptize his or her child?\nGrandparents know that the parents are depriving the grandchild of the most necessary of graces, failing to direct the newborn to his or her supernatural end.\nAfter conversations fail to bear immediate fruit, some grandparents are tempted to secretly baptize the grandchild without the consent of the parents. However, grandparents need to know that this practice is contrary to the law of the Church and sinful.\nThe Code of Canon Law states, "For an infant to be baptized lawfully, it is required that the parents, or at least one of them, or the person who lawfully holds their place, give their consent" (868).\nIn his Summa Theologiae, St. Thomas Aquinas explains that parents are, by the natural law, responsible for their children, and "it would be contrary to natural justice if such children were baptized against their parents’ will" (III, q. 68, a. 10).\nUnder normal circumstances, no one, not even a grandparent, has the right to baptize a child contrary to the parents’ will.\nNot only would the baptism by a grandparent be a violation of the natural law, but, as St. Thomas writes, "Under the circumstances, it would be dangerous to baptize the children of unbelievers; for they would be liable to lapse into unbelief by reason of their natural affection for their parents."\nThe danger here is failing to bring the grace of baptism to fruition. For this reason, the Code of Canon Law explains the requirement "that there be the well-founded hope that the child will be brought up in the Catholic religion. If such hope is truly lacking, the baptism is, in accordance with the provisions of particular law, to be deferred" (868).\nThe only exception to this law would be if the child is in danger of death. Canon law states, "An infant of Catholic parents, indeed even of non-Catholic parents, is lawfully baptized in danger of death, even if the parents are opposed to it."\nIf death is near, the salvation of the child’s soul then prevails over the rights of the parents.\nThere is also an issue of honesty here. Grandparents who secretly baptize their grandchildren without the consent of the parents are being deceptive, willfully deceiving the parents.\nWhat will happen some years later if the grandchild finally comes for baptism, either through the parents’ consent or as an adult? The grandparents will need to explain that the baptism has already occurred some years before.\nThe parents will rightfully feel betrayed, only beginning another painful conflict in the family.\nIt should also be noted that, according to canon law, "The ordinary minister of baptism is a bishop, a priest or a deacon" (861) and that the pastor, by his office, has jurisdiction of all baptisms within his territory (530, 862).\nA layperson who baptizes without the permission of the local pastor violates this law. Although the Code of Canon Law does make provision for cases "of necessity" for a layperson to baptize, a strong desire by grandparents is not one of them.\nFor all of these reasons (natural law, the proper formation in the faith, honesty, proper jurisdiction) the Church teaches that outside of the danger of death or a special permission granted for particular pastoral needs, it is sinful for a layperson (such as a grandparent) to baptize someone. St. Thomas Aquinas states, "If a layman were to baptize outside a case of urgency, he would sin" (III, q. 67, a. 3).\nAccording to the Handbook of Moral Theology by Dominican Father Dominic Prummer, the administration of baptism without the permission of the parish priest or ordinary "is a grave violation of that person’s rights." Moral Theology by Franciscan Heribert Jone states, "Apart from the case of necessity, it is mortally sinful to baptize without at least the presumed permission of the pastor."\nThe deferral of baptism until a later time can be quite difficult for Catholic grandparents to accept, knowing the necessity of baptism for salvation. Nonetheless, the grandparents must pray and trust that, in due time, their prayers will be answered, taking St. Monica as their example.\nAs a priest, I have known a number of people who as adults were brought back to the Catholic faith through the good example and counsel of their grandparents, even after the grandparents have died.\nThe Lord sees all the great sacrifices that grandparents have made for the faith and will reward accordingly; for the Lord shows "steadfast love to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments" (Exodus 20:6).\nin the Diocese of Bridgeport.

By Charles Rich Jr., MD, medical director, Carolinas HealthCare System’s HEALTHWORKS Division We recently discussed the hidden costs of mental health issues. While employees struggle silently with very real challenges out of fear and shame, employers face increased direct and indirect costs. Though a wide variety of disorders and diseases fall under the heading of mental health, depression is far and away the most common in today’s workplace. In fact, research shows that depression can be the single highest driver of healthcare expenses for a company when considering direct and indirect costs.\nAccording to data from the Harvard Mental Health Letter: • About 6 percent of employees in the average workplace have some symptoms of depression every year. • Even if they are at their desk, these employees can miss about 27 workdays per year. • About one-third of those 27 days are logged as formal “sick leave,” but the other 18 are due to lost productivity while in the office. • Perhaps most concerning is only a little more than half (57 percent) of employees with major depression were receiving professional help. • While treatment for depression is not an instant fix, employees who did receive help saw an increase in their productivity. In one study, employers saw an $1,800 annual return for every $100-400 invested in treatment.\nAs we shared in our previous post, one of the first things an employer can do to help staff identify and treat mental health issues like depression is to foster a culture where employees feel safe reaching out for help, and where resources can be accessed easily. There are some additional steps that can be taken to help employees dealing with depression.\nAs more and more employers offer preventive screenings for physical conditions like heart disease and diabetes, mental health checks are not as common. Work with your benefits provider to incorporate mental health screenings into your employee compensation package. Mental health checks are not always automatically included in regular checks by primary care physicians, so work with your provider network to see if this can be encouraged. Most of all, it is critical to engage with your staff to ensure they understand the confidential nature of these screenings. Many employees may opt out of screening for fear of being stigmatized. Make sure your employees understand how and where to access support services in a confidential environment.\nUnlike a sprained ankle or the flu, the symptoms of mental health issues like depression can be difficult to identify if you aren’t familiar with the warning signs. Arm your staff with an understanding of how depression can manifest itself and establish a confidential process for employees to reach out for help, whether they notice the symptoms in themselves or a colleague. Your organization may also benefit from Mental Health First Aid training programs that can help identify mental health issues in the workplace and connect employees in need of assistance with resources in a safe, confidential manner. For more information on this program, contact your local HEALTHWORKS representative.\nWhile it is not a definitive cure, physical exercise has been shown to dramatically improve symptoms of depression. Establishing a fitness routine is particularly important for sedentary staff members who spend their workday sitting in front of a computer under fluorescent lighting. Work with your HR department to establish a variety of fitness offerings to help employees be active throughout the day. Some examples could be starting a walking club, hosting in-house yoga or fitness classes, partnering with a nearby gym for daily group classes or offering a reimbursement for fitness memberships. Of course, exercise has even more benefits, as employees who are more active may see improvement in physical conditions such as obesity, hypertension, high blood pressure and heart disease. These are just a few ways employers can help their employees improve their quality of life and the company’s bottom line at the same time.\nHow has your organization addressed mental health issues? What strategies, programs or services have worked well? Share your thoughts with us on Twitter @HEALTHWORKS and on LinkedIn.

ELMIRA, N.Y. – Future guide dogs had an opportunity to practice going through a Transportation Security Administration checkpoint at the Elmira Corning Regional Airport (ELM) today so that they would be more familiar with the checkpoint screening process when they do need to catch a flight.\nTSA officials screened eight puppies and their trainers from the Southern Tier of New York’s Puppy Raisers for Guiding Eyes for the Blind, as they came through the checkpoint in an effort to acclimate the future guide dogs with an important piece of the airport experience.\nThis marked the second time that Guiding Eyes dogs have been trained passing through the checkpoint at ELM. Similar TSA checkpoint orientations have taken place for service dogs at other New York airports including Greater Binghamton Airport, Greater Rochester International Airport, Buffalo-Niagara International Airport, LaGuardia Airport, Westchester County Airport, and Long Island MacArthur Airport.\nIndividuals traveling with service animals who have questions about the process can always contact TSA Cares, a helpline that provides travelers with disabilities, medical conditions and other special circumstances additional assistance during the security screening process. You may reach TSA Cares at (855) 787-2222; email at [email protected] or Federal Relay: 711. The TSA Cares line is staffed weekdays from 8 a.m. - 11 p.m. EDT and on weekends and holidays from 9 a.m. - 8 p.m. EDT. It is best to call 72 hours prior to traveling with questions about screening policies, procedures and what to expect at the security checkpoint.

Get henry copeland's new forking quotes.\nAt one point in our conversation, he laid it on the line. "You need to decide whether you'll be satisfied with writing for an audience of two or maybe three hundred people." Clearly, the correct answer to this was "yes." And as Wood said it, then and now I have the sense he thought posing it in this way would get me back on track with a focus on the scholarly community we were a part of. But hearing it so starkly, in my mind my response was something more like, "Holy Crap, no way! That's definitely nowhere near enough people. And worse yet, I know some of those people. And I definitely don't want to write for them."\nSites like CucumberTown, Forkinit, and BigOven offer comparable services, but Fork the Cookbook is distinguishable by its commitment to user-experience and interface. It has no news feeds, up/down votes, or likes. The Forking Chef is adamant about focusing on the recipes rather than social features and design that does the recipes justice.

We implemented solution one (rename ons.config), but the problem re-occurred 2 months later. Then we were told to implement both solutions. This was about 3 weeks ago, so we will wait and see if it occurs again.\n> Is Oracle somehow spawning additional listener processes?\n> Sneak preview the all-new Yahoo.com.

sony has now officially announced three new cli� devices for the u.s. market. the th55, tj37, and tj27 were previously announced in japan, and can be pre-ordered from the sony website for us$400, $300, and $200. the prices seem quite good, since the first two come with integrated wi-fi and built-in cameras. people have been wanting a t series with 320×480 for some time, and it is now a reality. i don't really like the button layout, and i require bluetooth to be integrated in all my pdas now so i can access the internet wherever i may be. sony includes a new organizer software application that looks pretty cool. another great addition is that buyers of these devices get documents to go professional version 6 as well. thanks to candace for the release notes, and to moose man for the heads-up. brighthand already has a review of the th55 up for you to check out.

The actress says that director Selvaraghavan knows what he wants and is perfectionist.\nActress Regina Cassandra, who has quite a few films lined up for release this season, is quite pepped up and excited about the films that she is part of. Regina is playing the female lead role in Nenjam Marappathillai which is being directed by ace filmmaker Selvaraghavan. The film is touted to a thriller but Regina Cassandra says it not a thriller and is a dark movie.\nThe release of the film has been rescheduled many a times till now but the actress doesn’t seem to have been affected by that. “The wait for Nenjam Marappathillai doesnt frustrate me. The funny part is that every time a new date is announced I feel as excited as I did when the film was supposed to release,” says Regina Cassandra in an interview to a news agency.\nRegina also says that Nenjam Marappathillai is a dark movie and not a typical horror thriller. “Its the one film that I am still anxious about and looking forward to. I wont call it as a horror or thriller; its a dark movie, first of its kind,” opines Regina.\nRegina also opens up about what drives her to choose the scripts and the characters in them. “I have always given a lot of thought to the character and script, thats why I was doing only a few films. From the few commercial offers I got in Tamil, I picked and waited to see how it goes,” added Regina.

The difficult living and working conditions in Mukuru, an informal settlement in Nairobi, Kenya, becomes immediately apparent as soon as you turn off the smooth main highway running east toward Mombassa. The journey becomes slower and bumpier. The large boulders and lack of tarmac suggest that the road would be best tackled in a 4x4 vehicle. But the lack of a tarmac surface does not stop the huge trucks carrying thousands of litres of petroleum, matatus transporting the mass of people and boda bodas (motorcycles) passing by at speeds that make you take a sharp intake of breath as you squeak between them and the nearest stall re-selling their favourite Premier League football shirts. Unfortunately, I’ve not found a Newcastle United shirt for sale as yet.The other noticeable difference is the type of structure where people live and work. You leave the highway and pass the clean glass fronts of the office spaces within the Sameer Business Park. Not more than 100 metres away, you move into the corrugated iron homes and businesses of the working poor. Along with the cheaper cost of building materials, the major reason for using corrugated iron is that the material is not classified as a ‘permanent structure’. Here, people are able to live and set up temporary stalls to sell a variety of wares. However, the majority of the population of Nairobi live within these informal settlements.\nWe make this daily trip to Mukuru because we are working with Sanergy, a social enterprise that has been improving the sanitation conditions in Mukuru since 2011. Sanergy has a strong community presence, linked to the high impact branding of their Fresh Life Toilets. They have constructed over 343 toilets, and a further 200 installations are planned for this year. This growing business requires a large amount of human resources to collect and manage the waste.\nAccess to homes and their latrines within Mukuru is difficult at the best of times. Overhanging power cables, puddles that turn into lagoons, narrow, busy alleys and the natural hustle of a densely populated area provide the backdrop against which the collectors wind through the maze of corrugated iron structures (housing on average up to 4 people in one room) towards the Fresh Life Toilets. The waste containers are emptied and replaced every day. This is a demanding job that isn’t made any easier when the heavy rains cause the black cotton (clay) soils to turn into a sticky obstacle course.\nThe majority of the Fresh Life Toilets are owned by local entrepreneurs (there are some at household plots and schools) who earn a viable income with a steady stream of customers who pay between 3 and 5 Ksh ($0.04 - $0.06) to use the FLT. The idea is to provide affordable and aspirational facilities which people want, and therefore will pay to use.\nAnd this is what brings us to work with Sanergy: we both seek to develop aspirational, user-friendly technologies is a shared aim for both EAWAG and Sanergy. The evolution of our Blue Diversion Toilet has focused on developing a product that is not only affordable but comfortable and aspirational.\nThis is the second version of the Blue Diversion Toilet. The first version, designed and tested in April 2013 in two slums in Kampala with our partners at Makerere University, offered some compelling feedback. After interviewing 1500 households, we learned that the toilet was too high so it would not fit into current latrine structures, the foot pump proved difficult to operate for younger children and old or infirmed adults and we also were challenged by other technical glitches. These issues were tackled by the engineers at Eawag, the design team and new partners Tribecraft. The new collaboration resulted in a re-designed and re-engineered toilet. It is a smaller, more efficient system that can be retro-fitted into existing latrine structures with minimal cost.\nNow, with Sanergy, we would like to find out about different issues related to the operation and functioning of the Blue Diversion Toilet within a different informal settlement. The engineers would like to know how the toilet functions during regular day to day usage. The design team would like to find out how users evaluate the features of the toilet. The business team would like to understand the willingness to pay for the new technology. Finally, the social science team would like to understand why households and local business owners decide to invest in sanitation infrastructure. The toilet has arrived and is currently being installed so we are now ready to test the toilet. Watch this space for updates on our progress over the next 3 months.

A pdf version of this code can be viewed here.\nThe purpose of this Code is to ensure that advertisers maintain rigorous standards in therapeutic and health advertising.\nAll advertising shall adhere to the laws of New Zealand and the Principles and Rules set out in this Code. The ASA Advertising Standards Code should also be consulted. Many sectors in this category have their own codes with specific advertising requirements and these should also be taken into account by advertisers.\nThis Code covers all words and visual depictions in all advertising for therapeutic products (medicines and medical devices), natural health products and dietary supplements, health services and methods of treatment. This Code may also apply when therapeutic or health claims are made in advertisements for other products or services not defined in this code. This Code does not apply to labels or packaging. However, when a label or packaging appears in an advertisement it forms part of the advertisement and therefore any visible aspects are covered by this Code.\nFor the avoidance of doubt, where legislation relevant to this Code has been updated and/or if a conflict occurs in relation to legislative and code requirements, legislative requirements will prevail.\nThe Therapeutic Advertising Pre-Vetting Service (TAPS) is a user-pays service available to all advertisers making therapeutic and health claims to help minimise the risk of breaching the ASA Codes of Practice as well as other industry codes and relevant legislation. Information about TAPS is available at http://www.anza.co.nz.\nMedicine’ – Medicines are any substance or article or active ingredient that is manufactured, imported, sold, or supplied wholly or principally for administering to one or more human beings for a therapeutic purpose (see definition below for therapeutic purpose). A medicine achieves, or is likely to achieve, the principal intended action in or on the human body by pharmacological, immunological, or metabolic means.\nOnly medicines that have been evaluated by Medsafe and have consent to distribute may be advertised in New Zealand. The medicine(s) advertised may be available on prescription or may be purchased ‘over-the-counter’.\nA product can be a medicine in three ways.\nAdvertisers should not rely on the medicines classification schedule to determine whether or not a product is a ‘medicine with consent to distribute’ and is therefore able to be advertised.\nSection 3 of the Medicines Act 1981(Meaning of Medicine) is available here www.legislation.govt.nz.\n‘Medical Device’ – Medical Devices are devices that have a therapeutic purpose (see definition below for therapeutic purpose).\nA product can appear to be a Medical Device by virtue of the way it works or the claims that are made on the label or in advertisements.\nSection 3 (A) of the Medicines Act 1981 (Meaning of Medical Device) is available here www.legislation.govt.nz.\n(f) investigating, replacing, or modifying parts of the human anatomy.\nOnly medicines with consent to distribute in New Zealand and medical devices can claim to have a therapeutic purpose in advertisements.\nA ‘therapeutic purpose claim’ in an advertisement will likely refer to a medicine(s) or medical device that has a therapeutic effect on an actual or implied medical condition / disease or physiological process (see definition below for disease). A ‘therapeutic purpose claim’ may be accompanied by words such as enhance, improve, prevent, interfere with, terminate, reduce, increase, accelerate, inhibit, boost, treat, relieve and stimulate. For medicines, the therapeutic claims(s) must be consistent with the indication(s) that have been approved for the product.\nDisease includes any injury, ailment, deformity, disorder, or adverse condition, whether of body or mind.\n‘Natural Health Products and Dietary Supplements’ – Products for the primary purpose of bringing about a health benefit (see definition below for health benefit) to the person who uses the product. May include Natural Health Products, Dietary Supplements, Herbal Preparations and Traditional Medicines.\nHealth Benefit claims in advertisements for a Natural Health Product and Dietary Supplement must be supported by scientific or traditional substantiation. Only products that meet the definition in this Code of a Natural Health Product or Dietary Supplement may claim a health benefit in advertisements.\n‘Health Services’ – Services that offer a method of treatment (see definition below for method of treatment) for a range of medical conditions OR services that offer support for normal healthy body functions. Providers may or may not be registered health professionals (as defined in the NZ Medicines Act). May include (but not limited to), services for Medicine, Surgery, Physiotherapy, Nursing, Rehabilitation, Diagnostics, Psychotherapy, Counselling, Fertility, Sterilisation, Relaxation Massage, Homeopathy, Naturopathy, Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurvedic medicine.\nAny method of treatment for reward undertaken, or represented to be undertaken, for a therapeutic purpose.\nA health practitioner who is, or is deemed to be, registered with an authority established or continued by the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act 2003 as a practitioner of a particular health profession.\nWhen advertising is directed to Healthcare Professionals or Healthcare Professionals appear in advertisements, this definition also includes those who are studying or undertaking research in relation to any of the registered health professions and employees of healthcare professionals.\nNote: The Medicines Act does not permit healthcare professionals endorsing a medicine or a medical device in advertisements to consumers.\nAdvertisers should take care in using the term ‘healthcare professional’ in advertisements. People in advertisements, or who are referred to in advertisements, should only be labelled as a Healthcare Professional (or are studying, undertaking research or are employees of healthcare professionals) if they fit the legal definition otherwise the advertisement may be misleading.\nWeight Loss / Weight Management Programme’ – A programme that may include the sale of e.g. food, meals, meal replacement or gym equipment, and may include advice on diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes. Weight is lost or managed through reduced energy intake and / or increased energy is expended. Where there is suitable substantiation, claims for weight loss may be made in advertisements for weight programmes.\nAdvertisements for weight programmes are NOT subject to the Medicines Act unless there is a medicine or medical device advertised with the programme. Advertisements for weight programmes that include a Medicine, Medical Device, Natural Health Product or Dietary Supplement or Health Service are subject to the advertising requirements of this Code for these products.\nAdvertisements for Weight Programmes that include a medicine, medical device or health service may only claim ‘weight loss’ if this claim can also be made about the product / device / service. A weight loss claim in an advertisement for weight programmes such as these will infer a weight loss claim on the product / device / service.\nThis could be misleading if the product / device / service is not able to make a weight loss claim when advertised alone (without the weight programme).\nNatural Health Products and Dietary Supplements when advertised alone may not make weight loss claims in advertisements. When included in an advertisement for a weight management programme weight loss claims cannot be made about the product or the programme.\nPLEASE NOTE: There are further detailed guidance notes on the Advertising of Weight Management Programmes at the end of this code. These guidance notes assist advertisers to produce advertisements in a socially-responsible manner and so consumers are not deceived or misled.\nTherapeutic and Health advertisements shall observe a high standard of social responsibility particularly as consumers often rely on such products, devices and services for their health and wellbeing.\nAdvertisements shall contain the following mandatory information to encourage responsible prescribing, recommendation, sale and use.\nThis information shall be set out in a way (legible / audible) that ensures it can be readily understood by the audience to whom it is directed.\nMandatory information as required by the most recent edition of the Medicines Act, Medicines Regulations, Medsafe Guideline on Advertising therapeutic products, Medicines NZ Code of Practice and the Self-Medication Industry Code of Practice.\nAlways read the label and follow the instructions.\nThis Medical Device must be administered / applied / implanted by a healthcare professional.\nFor products that contain vitamins and / or minerals, the following additional statement (or words to this effect).\nFor products that may be used for a short time, after which the consumer should seek medical advice, the following additional statement (or words to this effect).\nName and address of the advertiser.\nThe following statements (or words to the effect).\n‘Food additional’ or ‘Plus the cost of food’.\nAny other mandatory information relevant to products, devices or services advertised with the programme.\nThe following statement (or words to the effect).\nWeight management takes time and effort to be successful. People should seek professional advice on diet, exercise and lifestyle changes.\nIncluding the name and address of the advertiser in advertisements for therapeutic and health products, devices and services allows consumers to determine who is responsible for the advertisement. They are then able to make contact with the advertiser to, for example, ask questions or request more information. Including the name and address of the advertiser is a legislated requirement for advertisements for medicines and medical devices.\nThe advertiser’s address may be limited to the City name providing the advertiser can be easily located via an online search or in the White / Yellow Pages. Advertisers may also include their company website address.\nare safe or that their use cannot cause harm or that they have no side effects or risks.\nharmful consequences may result from the therapeutic or health product, device or service not being used.\nAdvertisements should not portray unrealistic outcomes or prey on or misrepresent vulnerable audiences (e.g. sick, elderly, pregnant women, overweight people).\nThe use of scientific language in advertisements is acceptable providing that it is appropriate to, and readily understood by, the audience to whom it is directed.\nAdvertisements shall be truthful, balanced and not misleading. Advertisements shall not mislead or be likely to mislead, deceive or confuse consumers, abuse their trust, exploit their lack of knowledge or without justifiable reason, play on fear. This includes by implication, omission, ambiguity, exaggerated or unrealistic claim or hyperbole.\nAdvertisements shall be accurate. Statements and claims shall be valid and shall be able to be substantiated. Substantiation should exist prior to a claim being made. For medicines and medical devices, therapeutic claims must be consistent with the approved indication(s) (for medicines) or the listed intended purpose (for medical devices). In addition to the ASA Guidance Note on Responding to a Complaint about Misleading Claims, the following guidance is specific to advertising therapeutic products, natural health products and dietary supplements and health services. Substantiation varies for claims made in advertisements depending on what is being advertised.\ni. Therapeutic claims for Medicines shall be those approved by Medsafe and thus would be consistent with the product Data Sheet, Consumer Medicine Information and / or the approved Label.\nii. Therapeutic claims for Medical Devices should be consistent with the ‘Intended Purpose’ noted on the WAND listing and the claims must be able to be supported by appropriate substantiation.\nMedical Devices must be listed on WAND within 30 working days after the device is first imported, exported or manufactured (Note: There are some exceptions to this WAND listing requirement).\nThere is no independent evaluation in New Zealand of the substantiation for claims made about a medical device. The onus to have substantiation on-hand and provide it when necessary, lies with the advertiser.\nPlease note: The WAND database is not accessible to members of the public or any other party except Medsafe and the New Zealand sponsor.\nNote: It is an offence under the Fair Trading Act to make a claim in an advertisement that cannot be substantiated. Advertisers must be able to back up a claim before the claim is made in an advertisement. This Commerce Commission Fact Sheet provides an overview of the substantiation provisions of the Fair Trading Act.\nAdvertisements shall not encourage, or be likely to encourage, inappropriate or excessive purchase or use. Advertisements for prescription medicines shall not encourage, or be likely to encourage, inappropriate or excessive prescriptions or requests for a prescription.\nComparative advertising shall be balanced and shall not be misleading, or likely to be misleading, either about the product, device or service advertised or classes of products, devices or services, with which the comparison is made.\nComparative advertisements shall not be disparaging and shall be factual, fair and able to be substantiated, referenced to the source and reflective of the body of available evidence.\nComparative advertisements shall not discourage consumers from following the advice of their healthcare practitioner.\nComparative advertisements shall compare ‘like with like’. Advertisements for Natural Health Products and Dietary Supplements shall not include comparisons with medicines or medical devices either specifically or generally.\nAdvertisements may include reference to the advertiser’s sponsorship of any government agency, hospital or other facility providing healthcare services, provided that sponsorship is explicitly acknowledged and cannot be misconstrued as an endorsement of the product, device or service being advertised.\nAdvertisements shall not claim or imply endorsement of the product, device or service by any government agency, professional body or independent agency unless there is prior consent, the endorsement is current, verifiable and the agency or body is named.\nPatient testimonials and healthcare professional endorsements in advertisements, where not prohibited by law, shall comply with the Code, be authenticated, genuine, current, and typical and acknowledge any valuable consideration. Exceptional cases shall be represented as such. The Medicines Act Section 58 (1) (c) (iii) prevents the use of patient testimonials in advertisements to consumers for medicines or medical devices or methods of treatment where a therapeutic benefit is obtained (Note: Section 60 of the Medicines Act exempts advertisements that are circulated solely or principally to healthcare professionals). This means that an advertisement to consumers cannot include (or imply) a patient (or group of patients / class of people) with a medical condition or disease, taking a medicine or using a medical device or have accessed a method of treatment and showing in some way that they have benefited from it.\nTestimonials for natural health products and dietary supplements, and health services to support a normal bodily function are permitted. However, these testimonials should not include any information that implies the product is a medicine or medical device or that the service has a therapeutic benefit. This is likely to breach the Medicines Act. The content of testimonials must be consistent with the claims allowed in the advertisement for these products and services.\nThe Medicines Act Section 58 (1) (c) (ii) prevents the use of healthcare professional endorsement in advertisements to consumers for medicines or medical devices or methods of treatment where a therapeutic benefit is obtained (Note: Section 60 of the Medicines Act exempts advertisements that are circulated solely or principally to healthcare professionals). This means that an advertisement to consumers cannot include a registered healthcare professional (real or fictitious) recommending (or implying to recommend) a medicine or medical device or a method or treatment for a therapeutic benefit to members of the public.\nHealthcare Professional endorsements for natural health products and dietary supplements are not permitted.\nHealthcare Professional endorsements for health services to support a normal bodily function are permitted. However, the endorsement should not include any information that implies that the service has a therapeutic benefit. This is likely to breach the Medicines Act. The content of a healthcare professional endorsement must be consistent with the claims allowed in the advertisement for these services.\nOther individuals or organisations may endorse a medicine, medical device, therapeutic service, natural health product and dietary supplement or health service in advertisements. The endorsement should be consistent with the claims allowable for what is being advertised. These endorsements should not include or imply a testimonial (i.e. have used themselves and benefited) unless the testimonial is consistent with the statements above in the testimonial section of these Guidelines. To be consistent with the legislation, advertisements for medicines or medical devices that include endorsement by a Government Agency must not state or imply that the Government Agency has approved the content of the advertisement.\nTestimonials and Endorsements in advertisements should not breach the Therapeutic and Health Advertising Code, Principle 2, Rule 2 (b) Advertisements shall not encourage, or be likely to encourage, inappropriate or excessive purchase or use.\nThe advertising for Weight Management Programmes should be conducted in a socially responsible manner and should not deceive or mislead consumers. These guidelines recognise the social and health issues arising from obesity and its impact on society. It is generally accepted that losing weight and maintaining the weight loss is difficult in many circumstances. Consumers targeted by advertisements for weight loss may be unduly influenced by claims for quick or easy weight loss or ‘magic bullet’ solutions. Advertisers should avoid these kinds of claims.\nSo that advertisements for Weight Management Products and Programmes observe a high standard of social responsibility, the following guidance is provided.\na) Advertisements should acknowledge nutrition and exercise as major elements in individual weight management.\nTo help comply with the requirement for a high standard of social responsibility, Advertisers shall include reference to the need for a balanced, healthy diet and regular exercise as key elements of individual weight management. See the Therapeutic and Health Advertising Code for suitable statements.\nb) Advertisements should not suggest or imply that consumers follow a diet which is not nutritionally well-balanced or include a plan or process that has, or is likely to have, an energy intake less than that recommended by an authoritative dietary expert and specified from time-to-time in the Guidance Notes.\nAdvertisers shall not promote a diet plan with less than 3500 kilojoules (800 calories) per day on average over the course of one week.\nc) Advertisements should not imply that the product or service is a substitute for a balanced diet.\nd) Claims for specific weight loss or reduction in body measurement should be realistic and supportable.\ne) Advertisements should not promote unrealistic, rapid, or unsafe outcomes.\nf) Advertisements should not be directed nor have strong appeal, to people under the age of 18.\ng) Advertisements should not suggest or recommend weight loss during pregnancy.\nh) Advertisements should not suggest that it is socially or culturally desirable to be underweight.\ni) Statements or implications to the effect that consumers of an advertised product or service can “…eat as much as you like…” or “…eat, eat and get slim…” cannot be used.\nPlease Note: The ASA Complaints Board has regularly upheld complaints about weight loss or management products and services which make claims similar to those above. It is deemed socially irresponsible to encourage those who are trying to lose weight to eat an unlimited amount of food, regardless of the effects of the product or service being promoted.\nj) Advertisements for intensive physical activity programmes, products and services should encourage users to check with a doctor or professional adviser before commencing.\nAdvertisers should take care that models or actors, and any person providing testimonials, should not be underweight and have a generally-accepted weight to height ratio and body-mass index.\nIn addition, when using permitted testimonials, images should not be manipulated to misrepresent actual results.\nGuarantees in weight management advertising must be used with great care. In particular, if a guarantee offered is for your money back, as opposed to in support of the efficacy of the product, this must be clear.

photographing people is always my first choice. the relationship, the awkwardness, the connection, the evolution that unfolds as we work/walk/shoot together is what keeps me trying harder, keeps me dedicated to crafting better images. when i go on vacation i rarely photograph people... even my own family get left just beyond the edge of the frame. vacation photography for me is a chance to think solely about the colour, the light, the way it falls and the composition. alone with my wandering eyes, devouring silently the endless beauty unfolding at every turn. italy from my vantage point.

Last Saturday morning I ran my first 10K! I ran in the "Pilgrim Pacer", which is a race that supports the Food Harvesters. This is something that I have always wanted to do but never thought that I could. Thanks to the loving support and guidance of my husband, the marathon man, I was able to complete the race in 59 minutes and fourteen seconds which is my best pace yet. I told Kyle it was because it was so cold outside, it made me run faster=) I don't know if this is true but boy was it cold! About ten minutes before the race began the first snowflakes of the year landed on my eyelashes and I thought oh great, just my luck.\nAs I was waiting for them to send us off I was feeling a bit nervous because everyone around me looked so professional about it. People were running sprints, on the ground doing push ups, and doing all of these fancy stretches. I, of course, was just standing there wanting to conserve all of my energy for what lie ahead. I did meet several nice women who were doing it for the first time as well. We stuck together to cheer each other on.\nOverall it was a great experience and something I plan to do again, who knows maybe a half marathon is in my future. It is just hard finding the time to train with the little ones so we will see, that may be in the distant future. For now I am just happy that I was able to complete this challenge.\nI am very excited for next weekend when I get to cheer for my hubby as he runs another marathon:) Good Luck Sweetie!!\nMy mom was there too just not in the picture.\nMe in the final stretch.\nJust found you from the race site, boy it was a brutally cold morning!! But they always put on a great race.\nPS. I swear my hubs has the same hoodie as yours from our honeymoon!\nLook Who is Sitting Up!!!

When I started writing this deal up, I had planned on singling out a few must-have tunes to recommend, but as I scrolled through the list of sale items, I realized that nearly every song is awesome and should be in your music library. If you’re not that familiar with Classic Rock, this is a great place to start and for very little economic investment. If any of you readers have some strong recommendations to give based on the songs in this sale, then go ahead and leave a comment below.

(PhysOrg.com) -- Using advanced computer modeling and statistical analysis, a University of Texas at Austin linguistics professor has found that toddlers develop their own individual structures for using language that are very different from what we traditionally think of as grammar.\n"Grammars have different forms in development," says Colin Bannard, assistant professor in the Department of Linguistics. "We shouldn't assume a child's grammar is anything like our traditional notion of what grammar is."\nIn a study released today in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Bannard and Elena Lieven and Michael Tomasello, two colleagues working at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, developed a computer program to analyze 60 hours worth of conversations that two English-speaking toddlers — Brian and Annie — had with their parents after turning two and again after turning three.\nThe computer model did not assume the children knew any of the basic rules of language, such as the use of nouns and verbs. Instead, it used the toddlers' early conversations after each birthday to predict the structure of their subsequent conversations.\nRather than adhering to the kinds of rules for English linguists have identified, the toddlers developed their own basic formulas for speaking with slots into which they could put particular kinds of words. At age two, those formulas — which were different for each child — were found to predict the children's subsequent speech better than a more traditional grammar.\nMany researchers have long believed that even young children's earliest language derives from an understanding of an abstract grammar that includes categories like nouns and verbs and a set of rules for combining them to produce sentences.\n"How exactly a child learned these was considered something of a mystery and so it was declared by some that they must be innate," Bannard says. "However there is increasing evidence that children's path to grammar is a gradual and piecemeal process."\nThe findings also show that, between the ages of two and three, children learn to better understand and apply the adult rules of grammar, particularly by using verbs more flexibly.\nThis is the first major study of children's language development that uses advanced computer modeling to analyze, understand and predict children's utterances based on daily recordings of their language use.\n"One thing that is very important about this work is Dr. Bannard's sophisticated use of computational and statistical techniques to analyze child language data," says Richard P. Meier, chair of the Linguistics Department.\nBannard hopes to use such methods more extensively.\n"Here we have a technique for modeling grammar I'd like to apply to more children, to look at them more continuously from age two to age three, to apply rigorous statistics to learn what a child knows," Bannard says.\nthis might help explain why we find early language use so precocious: the part that is cute is because it is completely unexpected.\nI asked my 4 year old, "Why are you small?" he said "Because I am." I asked, "Why are you 4?" he said, "Because I am." I asked why he had 5 toes and he said, "Because I do."; I asked why he had elbows and he, by now finding the game hilarious, said, "Because I DO!"\nThen I asked, "Why do you say 'because I am' when I ask you why you are small, but you say 'because I do' when I ask why you have 5 toes?"\nThere was a long pause. He glanced up at me once or twice, and then he answered, "Because I do."\nI would love to be privy to the linguistic computational analysis that was going on in his head.

ORLANDO — Pop star phenom Justin Bieber wowed his enthusiastic fans, know as “Beliebers,” that filled a sold-out Amway Center arena with deafening screams on Friday, Jan. 25.\nBieber asked his fans on stage near the start of his performance “I want to know how many of you have seen me in concert before?” This was followed by an uproarious reaction from the over 12,000 in attendance.\nLike most major concert performances, this show was just as much about the extras as the music. Video monitors with flashing transitions, pyrotechnics and laser light displays and an elaborate triple layered stage, laid the foundation for a cutting edge live event.\nA grand entrance from Bieber himself started the show. As the young performer descended from the top of the main stage to the center stage catwalk, adorned by giant silver wings made from the shapes of musical instruments, a back-up band and large dance crew accompanied the singer throughout a majority of the concert.\nMost of his songs are fast paced jams built for dance clubs, and his performance reflects this with pop-n-lock moves and crowd interaction. With all the extra showmanship aside, the young performer has a soulful sound that is most recognizable when he slows down his performance to sing in a capella.\nTwo of his songs “Be Alright” and “Fall,” were performed midway through the concert with only an acoustic guitar and demonstrated a level of mellow diversity. He also used this acoustic moment in the show to mention his newest album “Believe Acoustic” will be available to purchase on Jan. 29.\n“I truly think he's a good person, and I've been a fan of his throughout his progression of becoming famous and becoming an adult,” said Zoe Manhan. She also recently saw the group One Direction perform at the Amway Center, but felt that Beiber's show was far more entertaining even though he is only a solo artist compared to a group performance.\nAlso accompanying Bieber at the concert was surprise guest Mike Posner, who performed his hit song “Cooler Than Me.” Posner also wrote and produced Bieber's hit song “Boyfriend,” and has worked with several other popular musical artist in recent years.\nAn up-and-coming Australian pop singer, Cody Simpson, 16, was the opening act for Bieder's Orlando show. “I'm a long way from home right now, but it means a lot to be able to come all the way down here to Florida,” said Simpson on stage. He took over as opening act after the original opening artist Carly Rae Jepsen announced at the beginning of the month she would not be attending the “Believe” shows in Orlando and Miami.\nBieber's two most popular songs “Boyfriend” and “Baby” that have received over one billion views on YouTube combined, were saved till the end of the concert for his encore songs. The thunderous chanting of “Justin Justin Justin,” demonstrated the need for his fans to hear just a few more songs before calling it a night.\nHis “Believe Tour” is only the second concert tour for the 18-year-old Canadian singer, and kicked off back in September of last year. In total, it is currently scheduled for over 100 performances across America, Canada, Europe, and Africa, and “Believe” is well on its way to being one of the top grossing tours of this year.\nThousands of fans filled the sold-out Amway Center in Orando, to see Justin Bieber on his "Believe Tour."\nBieber's opening act, Cody Simpson, on stage at the Amway Center in Orlando.\nBieber sings from the top level on stage at the Amway Center in Orlando.

The Year 12 HSC Society and Culture class of 2017 celebrated the completion of their Personal Interest Projects (PIP) this week, having worked on this for most of the HSC.\nStudents investigated contemporary issues in society through extensive secondary and primary research. The primary research component included students interviewing a range of experts in their areas, with one student conducting an interview with singer-songwriter Montaigne.\nAll students have approached their research with maturity and dedication, and students have now written their reports of up to 5,500 words, accompanied by an extensive list of annotated references. This major work accounts for 20 percent of their final HSC mark.\nThis year the range of topics included the role of social media in environmentalism, gender inequality in the film industry, the portrayal of disability in the media, objectification and sexualisation of women in competitive dance, the changing male gender, the impacts of living in the Middle East on identity, and the differing impact of dementia on male and female personal identity. The students now turn their attention to their Trial HSC Examinations early next term.\nSchool for Scandal a Success!

Artificial intelligence can increase your leads and appointments by 50 percent, reduce costs up to 60 percent, cut call time up to 70 percent, and slash admin work by 40 percent. So why aren’t your sales teams totally AI-enabled? Learn more about how AI can help your salespeople take back their time and close the deal when you join this VB Live event.\nSales leaders have an overarching goal: Make this quarter better than the last quarter. And closing more sales is the way to make that happen. That means nailing your forecasting, increasing the number of leads — and then upping your lead scoring, knowing when to offer a deal (and how far to go), cross-selling, up-selling, and more. And artificial intelligence is increasingly the fastest, smartest, and most cost-effective way to get there, in record time.\nThe number of forward-looking innovative sales leaders is growing, and they’re all-in on reinventing their whole sales strategy, and how they get ahead, by leveraging the business intelligence that AI brings to the table.\nThat means they’re hacking team workflows by automating menial tasks (up to 40 percent of your salespeople’s time can be taken back, when you add AI) and ensuring that every sales rep’s impact is equal to their undertaking.\nAI applications can take over the grunt work of sales, and make it hundreds of times more effective, faster, and efficient. Cognitive agents with natural language processing abilities can take on the hard work surrounding leads, by initiating tens of thousands of contacts, qualifying them, following up and even sustaining the lead until it’s handed over to the closer.\nAnd once a sales rep is handed an overflowing bucket of qualified potential customers, lead scoring becomes the most essential task to take on, because wasting time on unprofitable leads means an unprofitable quarter. AI can be a high-powered assist to a salesperson’s gut feeling, gathering up all the essential datapoints surrounding a potential client, from how long they’ve spent on them to what they’re saying on Twitter, all of which can help them rank the likelihood of closing, and keep them laser-focused on winning the prize.\nMoney never gets left on the table, when you’re employing an AI algorithm designed to determine the most effective discounts to offer — one that’s a win for both sides. A machine learning algorithm can sort through every previous deal that was won or lost, and sift for the most significant features, from the size of the deal to the size of the company, the product type to the sales target’s revenues, the power the decision-maker has and more. With that kind of intel, you’ll win the deal with the right discount at the right time, without getting gouged.\nWith data science insights, forecasting comes closer than ever to telling the future, allowing managers to predict a quarter’s revenue to a stunning degree of accuracy, and use that information to manage your inventory and resources better than ever.\nYour lowest overhead, highest profit sale is always going to be to an existing customer. And looking at previous sales trends and other data significant signals, AI can help you determine who’s ready to level up their existing product or service, and who’s ready to expand their current collection. Upselling and cross-selling, backed by AI, makes revenue increase and marketing costs drop.\nAnd how are sales reps doing? Sales managers can get a 360-degree view into every salesperson’s performance with AI, giving them insight into team performance, with a view of the customers on the hook, the ones that are getting away, and what kind of deals they’re landing. Who’s hitting their quota, and who needs a little encouragement? And making sales leaders more focused and more effective than ever before.\nAI is changing the game for sales organizations, and it’s become a real competitive differentiator, too. To learn more about how AI is offering invaluable assists to sales leaders and their teams, how machine learning and data science can help make leads more lucrative, how to increase your competitive edge with AI and more, don’t miss this VB Live event.

I often see post on Dachshunds that are difficult when it comes to clipping nails.\nIf you order a muzzle like this one from petedge, it does make the job a little easier.\nalso, if by any chance you have another individual around that can hold the scruff of the neck while you clip with the muzzle on this will help make the job a lot easier and less stressful on all parties. Remember to praise all the way through the session and after constantly encouraging and loving. The experience should not be tramatic (but yes, it can be) the muzzle is just for your protection and the kind words are to help create a positive experience . The first couple of times may be an ordeal, but some get use to the method and learn to except it. This really helps if you can do it weekly.\nI guess I have the odd ball dogs. Mine are great. They will either stand or lay on their backs in my lap and never fight a bit. And I dremmel only.\nNow the puppies are a whole 'nother story. We're in the patience and training stage, so we get a touch to the nail, and a piece of cheese to the mouth. It takes forever, but they're getting better. I really should be doing this every other day, but I just haven't had time lately, so it's been once a week.\nBut mine actually do great as long as they are on the grooming table. It's like they know when they are up there, then I mean business, since if they're up there then they get it all, nails clipped, paws trimmed, ears, the works lol. If I try to do it in my lap though, they squirm and want to go play.\n» When to Start Clipping Spinach?

Rommet jeg ble tildelt må oppdateres. Det var ikke opp til den standard som jeg etterhvert forventer fra Embassy Suites. Den gratis frokosten var virkelig overlegen og de ansatte var høflige og sympatiske. De var den virkelige juveler i dette oppholdet.\nVeldig fint hotell. Alle møbler og inventar var i orden. Alt var rent som man forventer. Parkering var enkel og rimelig priser de ansatte er svært vennlige og imøtekommende. Nesten hva du kan forvente når du tenker på gode gamle sørlig gjestfrihet.\nMye for pengene, førsteklasses service 100% av tiden!\nDo all rooms have a cooked-to-order breakfast or is that just certain rooms? Is the reception at night on Sunday nights also?\nParking is $15. Can I come and go during the day or will I have to pay each time I leave and return?\nThere is a pass you can obtain from the front desk which will allow you to come and go during the day without incurring additional charges.

My truck is considered oversized, will I have an issue getting this into your parking deck without damaging my vehicle?\nThe parking deck is actually a city lot, but I would imagine the Embassy Suites could answer your question.

An ideal accessory for your tent as it provides a warm and comfortable surface underfoot. It is also ideal for children to play on. The top surface is a soft but durable fleece that has an insulating foam middle layer and a waterproof backing. Carpets are available to fit the living areas of most of our tents.\nQuality was just what I wanted but actual size was not clear from the description on line. Had to order larger aize and return this item. The returns department somehow managed to mislay the return paperwork included with the carpet and ignore the "sender " label on the outer wrapping. However Aimee in the Sales Department sorted this all out very promptly once I advised of the non arrival of the refund. I now have my refund and a carpet that fits!

Levy, Daniel C. (2011). "The Decline of Private Higher Education". PROPHE Working Paper No.16. Revised and published as: Levy, D.C. (2013). The Decline of Private Higher Education.Higher Education Policy, 26, 25–42.\nNo topic in private higher education study has attracted as great attention globally as has growth. This is appropriate as private growth has soared to nearly a third of the world’s total higher education enrollment. But while private growth continues to be the dominant trend, important declines in private shares have emerged. These must be analyzed and understood.\nWhat is private decline depends partly on definition. For the most part declines occur in private enrollment shares, rarely in absolute numbers. Declines also sometimes occur in private subsectors rather than in the private sector overall. Some declines are merely transitory. Short of actual decline we also find notable slowing of private growth rates.\nAfter citing notable historical examples of private decline, we focus on contemporary social factors and political factors. The social factors revolve around two main dynamics: diminution of social distinctiveness or groups that have fueled private growth; demographic changes that fall hard on private sectors. On the political side we consider political regime change and regulation, then shifting to analysis of hefty multi-dimensional expansion within the public sector.\nNone of these dynamics reverses the continued dominant tendency of private growth but they do provide counter-tendencies important to grasp and with potential to accelerate.

Ringing in your 2 year anniversary with…a stranger? That’s survivor Adrian McDaniel and her stem cell donor Matthew Erbe. The pair had never met before, but they were a perfect match for the treatment she needed. Two years after the successful transplant, the pair finally met.\nAfter her Hodgkin Lymphoma diagnosis in 2012, 33 year old Adrian McDaniel told ABC7, doctors began searching for alternative treatments for her aggressive cancer. She eventually began treatment for an “allogenic stem cell transplant,” which means they wanted to put stem cells from a donor into her body. The only problem was, none of her family members were a match, says the article. Her name was placed into a national registry, where Erbe was found to be a perfect match.\nErbe met McDaniel’s husband, Cody, their three children and other family members, according to the article, and McDaniel presented Erbe with a handmade cross-stitched canvas with signatures from family and friends.\nAn allogenic transplant takes stem-cells from a healthy donor that closely matches your body’s cell type and may even be related to you. This transplant is promising because these new donor stem cells not only replenish your own stem-cell stores, but can actually help kill off cancer cells as well.\nHowever, new immune cells formed from the donor stem-cell transplant might detect your own tissues and organs as foreign and attack them instead, like they would an infection. This can have serious long-term consequences, and so allogenic transplant is currently only approved in clinical trials.

It’s been a bad year for Facebook. OK, a truly terrible year. It just got even worse.\nThe founders of Instagram, the photo-and-video app that Facebook agreed to buy shortly before its 2012 IPO, are leaving the company. Bloomberg News reported that the founders, Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, grew frustrated as Facebook impinged on their autonomy.\nIt’s not an exaggeration to say that Instagram was the best acquisition in the technology industry for at least the last decade, and the founders were symbolically and pragmatically important to the most important growth asset that Facebook has right now.\nBut this, my friends, is a truly terrible time for the Instagram founders to leave.\nThe optics are terrible, first off. Facebook is trying to project confidence that it’s moving past its two years of near constant crises involving foreign propaganda infecting the social network, of people and government officials using Facebook and its WhatsApp app to incite violence, and realizations stemming from this year’s Cambridge Analytica scandal that Facebook may not be worthy of people’s trust with their private time and digital lives.\nBut the blow to Facebook is far more than optics. Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s CEO, made a (probably disingenuous) claim recently that Instagram grew far faster under Facebook’s corporate umbrella than it could have if Instagram had stayed an independent company. It’s fair to say that Instagram could have died as a little startup in Facebook’s long shadow, and it definitely benefited from the discipline, infrastructure and advertising sales machine that it accessed as a semi-autonomous region inside of mother Facebook.\nMore recently, though, it’s been Facebook that needs Instagram more than the other way around, and that makes the departure of the Instagram founders a particularly painful sting.\nHow does Facebook need Instagram? First, there are the pragmatic needs. Facebook hasn’t been cool for many years, and people have always proclaimed they were using Facebook less even as data showed they were using Facebook more. But it does seem that people feel less good about using Facebook now for a variety of reasons, and it’s running out of untapped users. Daily users of Facebook have flat-lined in North America, the most important market for advertising.\nInstagram is a different matter. It’s still growing fast, it’s among the go-to apps for young people, and people aren’t embarrassed to say they love it. Instagram is that fresh-faced woman who breezes onto the airplane at 5 a.m. with not a care in the world. Facebook is the bedraggled one boarding last with so much baggage.\nFacebook also needs Instagram financially. The company has started to disclose that the increasing number of ads on Instagram is a significant contributor to Facebook’s revenue growth. As people spend more time in Instagram, that’s where companies want to be if they have shoes or movie tickets to sell. The company spooked investors in July by forecasting a significant slowdown in revenue growth, and a significant slimming of Facebook’s fat profit margins. I imagine the company’s crystal ball into its own future would look much cloudier without the growth and advertising potential of Instagram.\nStrategically, too, Instagram is the center of Facebook right now. The company has proclaimed what it believes is a major and permanent shift of people’s behavior toward “stories,” the short videos-plus-photos diaries that Snapchat pioneered and that Instagram copied to much success. Every part of Facebook, including the main social network and WhatsApp, are now emphasizing Stories, and Facebook is trying to push advertisers toward the still-novel format. Instagram led the way with stories, and losing the Instagram founders means Facebook loses people who truly understand why and how stories work.\nLast, Instagram’s founders provided something that Facebook badly wants to copy: an internet hangout that may be less prone to becoming a cesspool of internet garbage. We’ve learned in the last couple of years that a stream of continuous posts, photos and videos that Facebook spread to the world with the social-network news feed is vulnerable to manipulation, and prone to trapping people in their own bubbles of opinions. Even Facebook has been forced to acknowledge that the ways it designed its own digital sphere were potentially damaging to human mental health and to democracy.\nInstagram showed there was another way. Yes, beautiful photos on Instagram can still make people feel bad, and Instagram can still be manipulated by propagandists or used to bully people. But because it wasn’t organized around sharing posts, nor showing people more of what was likely to give them dopamine hits, Instagram was a model of a different, potentially more optimistic route for an internet hangout. Instagram is Facebook’s beacon on the hill.

Our stylish 'La Digue' dog collar is made with pastel lemon yellow ethical vegan cork 'leather' and would look beautiful on both boy and girl dogs. Cork is an ethical and sustainable alternative to leather and it has natural antibacterial qualities in addition to being water resistant. Cork is a sustainable material because it is made from the bark of oak trees, which is removed, then the bark can grow back and can be re-harvested years later. The collar features a heavy duty brass plated side release buckle that is made of zinc die cast with stainless steel pins and springs that will not freeze up in sub-zero temperatures. The other metal hardware is solid brass so will not rust if your furry friend fancies a dip in the water! Our engraved tags can be attached to the d ring.

Get Radical and Go Meatless One Night A Week!\nWho doesn’t love being radical? At the top of my New Year’s resolutions list this year was: 1) do not take yourself too seriously in 2016, 2) find more time for play, and 3) eat even MORE veggies and less meat! So when I say get radical, I’m sort of poking fun because if you’ve been following trends over the last decade beginning with when Michael Pollan steared us in the right direction to “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants,” you’ll already know that vegetables have clearly become the delicious center of the plate. What I’m really suggesting in this week’s “Healthy, Not Boring” Tip is to make cooking and eating vegetables more fun for your entire family. There’s no easier way to do this than by going all out “theme” one night a week–Italian night, Tex Mex night, Chinese night–oh YES! Join me this week as we take our Meatless Mondays to a whole new healthy, not boring level with these three fun and delicious meals!\nWhat I love about pesto is that it’s a green sauce that requires zero cooking! In my Joyful 12 recipe, Betcha Won’t Believe It’s Broccoli Pesto Pasta, I’m mixing up the standard basil centric recipe with a winter veggie that most kids and adults already love. What’s super fun about this pesto is its neon green color that comes from quickly blanching the broccoli florets and stems in the salty pasta water for a few minutes before they go into the food processor. If you didn’t already know this super cool science trick, it’s the salt in the water that keeps the chlorophyll from leaching out of green veggies that have been blanched! I’ll guarantee this hazelnut, parsley, and broccoli loving sauce will become your family’s favorite Italian meal this winter!\nIf you’re looking for a taste explosion, you’ve got to make Elena’s Kickin Southwestern Quinoa bowl. I’m addicted. What I love about this dish is that once you make it, you can continue eating it for several days in different ways–one night in a burrito, the next alongside a grilled piece of fish, or as a packed lunch on the go. With Elena’s recipe for a sweet and spicy mango salsa to top off all of this plant based yumminess, you’re guaranteed to return to this recipe as I have time and time again.\nAs I write this post, we are literally making fried rice for dinner! It’s always a variation of my standard Joyful 12 recipe based on whatever veggies I’ve got on hand. What I do though to make a Monday meal just a little more civilized is I do a little prep Sunday night when I’m vegging out to Downton Abbey, i.e., that’s when I cook my brown rice ahead of time. And don’t sweat it if you lean on those frozen veggies in your fried rice. Believe me, you’re going to pack in loads of fiber and flavor with so little effort, you’ll see why I call this my go-to Meatless Monday meal!\nBring a large pot of salted water to a boil (for every 8 cups add 1 ½ teaspoons salt).\nCut off the tops of the parsley, trying to get mostly leaves. Don’t worry if you get some stems. They will blend up in the pesto.\nFor the broccoli: cut off the florets (the flowering clusters at the end of the stem). Also cut most of the stem, just discarding the lower woody part. You can quickly cut off the outer parts of the stem (peel it with your knife) that are harder and chop the more tender inside of the stem into chunks.\nFirst grind cheese and nuts together in a food processor.\nIn the salted boiling water, drop broccoli florets and stems. After 2 minutes, remove the broccoli and put directly into your food processor.\nAdd the parsley, salt, pepper, garlic and olive oil and pulse until combined.\nBring the salted water back up to a boil and cook the pasta according to the box instructions.\nIn a bowl, combine cooked pasta with broccoli pesto and serve with some extra Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.\nCulinary Note: I often find that children are not as fond of raw garlic in their pesto. For this recipe, we like to gently simmer the garlic in olive oil for about 15 minutes before using.\nGrowing up, my dad always looked forward to his leftover Thanksgiving turkey sandwich piled high and slathered with mayo and cranberry relish. There is no denying it remains to be a really delicious way to use up Thanksgiving leftovers, but this year I’m excited to try a new family tradition where everyone can get in on the fun–making potstickers with a whole host of holiday leftovers.\nFor years, I’ve heard beautiful memories from my husband and his children about their potsticker assembly cooking sessions. That’s what’s great about potstickers. They truly are a team sport! While your extended family is in town, especially the kiddos, making potstickers is a great way to bond over a cooking activity that you’ll remember for years to come.\nAnd for those of us who hate to waste food, potstickers help you get creative so that even those leftover cranberries get put to good use in the form of a spicy dipping sauce! The really cool thing is that I’m sure your family will find their own creative combination this year as you mix ingredients. My husband, who truly is a pro at making these, was delightfully surprised by my leftover sweet potato version in a brown butter sauce. I’m counting on the fact that we’ll have a whole tray to freeze and enjoy on another weeknight when we’re hankering for some of those delicious creations we made together with family!\nChop leftover turkey into small pieces.\nChop cabbage, mushrooms, and green onion into small pieces (mince).\nHeat a skillet over medium high heat, add enough vegetable oil to coat the surface, followed by the mushrooms, cabbage, and green onion. Saute on medium high heat for 3-4 minutes.\nOnce the vegetables start to wilt, add the soy sauce and sesame oil. Cook another 1-2 minutes. Turn off heat and mix vegetables with the cut up turkey.\nTo make the cranberry dipping sauce, place all of the ingredients in a medium bowl and mix together. Set aside for cooked potstickers.\nPut tap water in a small bowl. You’ll use this to help seal the potstickers.\nHold the round potsticker dough in your hand. First, dip your finger in the water and run it around the outer edge of the potsticker round.\nNext, using a spoon, put your filling in the center of the round. Be careful to not overstuff your potsticker!\nFold the dough over the filling to form a half circle. Seal the edges with your hand.\nAs a design technique, you can pinch a little skin and fold along the edge of the potsticker (starting at the center and working towards each of the edges).\nMake as many potstickers as you can until your filling runs out! I like to line them up on a cookie sheet. We press them down a little when we set them down, which will help the bottoms to brown when you fry them in the pan. Any potstickers we don’t cook that day, we freeze on the cookie sheet and then transfer to a freezer bag until ready to cook on another day.\nPreheat a non-stick pan over medium high heat. Add 1-2 teaspoons of vegetable oil.\nWhen the oil is warmed, place potstickers flat side down in the pan. Allow bottoms to brown for 3-4 minutes. Note: you'll have to cook potstickers in batches. Try not to overcrowd your pan.\nOnce you’ve gotten a good browning on the bottoms of the potstickers, add ¼ cup water to the pan and cover to help them steam and finish cooking for another 2 minutes.\nOnce the water has evaporated, you can add a little more sesame oil to the pan if you desire for flavor and to finish browning the potstickers in the pan.\nPlace leftover mashed sweet potatoes (or sweet potato casserole) into a bowl.\nMake the brown butter sage sauce and set aside: heat butter over medium high heat until milk solids start separating from butterfat. Swirl butter in pan. When you start to smell hazelnuts and brown bits start to form, add the chopped sage and remove from heat.\nOnce the water has evaporated, add the brown butter sage sauce to the pan and coat sweet potato potstickers in the sauce.\nMy husband loves to grill. That’s why I gave him the job of coming up with a recipe for our friend’s birthday party “grill off.” That’s right. When there’s celebration that involves a healthy dose of competition + grilling, you know it’s going to be delicious! People rise to the occasion.\nWith a theme of dishes from around Asia, Jim got to work on a flavorful marinade using all things he adores and a little help from his diligent internet search: ginger, sesame oil, soy sauce, and garlic. And just like any great partnership, he asked me for my two cents. My suggestion was to throw in something unusual since this was a competition after all.\nPears are the perfect addition to a blended marinade. From what we later read in articles like this one I love from The Kitchn, pear juice is often used by Korean cooks as a tenderizer and sweet flavor enhancer. Assuming that many of our “bros” at the party would go big time meat centric, we opted for chicken in the form of a beautiful yellow pepper, onion, and perfect pear chicken kabob. It was a HIT. We even won a little trophy, but don’t take my word for it. Fire up that grill before the snow comes and take a little Korean BBQ adventure with pears this fall.\nPlace the chopped pear (skin on), white onion, garlic, tamari, brown sugar, sesame oil, and ginger in a blender and pulse until smooth to make the pear marinade.\nMarinate chicken for 30 minutes while preheating the grill. Soak wooden skewers in a bowl of water while chicken is marinating.\nAlternate the marinated chicken cubes, thick slices of red onion, and medium diced yellow bell pepper.\nGrill for 10-12 minutes over medium high heat, rotating the skewers to sear all sides.

One of the projects over the last year has been the introduction of early notification to parents of truant students via txt message generated by the absences software. Thinking back to my college days and the odd bunk that may have occurred - had cellphone technology been around I think there may have been a bit of a rethink by the perpetrator if the primary caregiver got a txt messages minutes after the roll identified one as missing from class. What I'm looking forward to next is recieving a message from my kids school when an assembly or sports event is cancelled. Back on topic - any hard evidence that early notification is having impact on truancy?\nThe need for an Apostrophe?

Around 1900, Berlin-born naturalised American Arnold Genthe took (often covert) pictures of street life in San Francisco's Chinatown.\nBetween 1896 and 1906, Berlin-born naturalised American Arnold Genthe (1869-1942) took pictures of street life in San Francisco’s Chinatown. Genthe, who ran a photographic studio in Chinatown, would wander the area taking often covert pictures of anonymous subjects. An early proponent of street photography. Genthe’s pictures were nearly lost when earthquake and fire struck the city in 1906. Happily, he had locked his work inside a bank vault which survived the destruction. Genthe’s extraordinary photos can be seen here and are now about the only representation of the area before the devastating earthquake.

Sketchup Pro 2018 just started crashing when I try to export a 2D graphic, it was doing it fine this morning and now will not do it at all. I reset the pram prior to this happening but I cant figure out why that would cause it to crash like this.\nThe error message makes it look like the Sketchup is aborting the export, but I can still render using vray.\nMake sure that SketchUp is using the Nvidia gaphics and not the integrated Intel.\nHow do I check and/or change that?\nTo start with open SketchUp’s Preferences (SketchUp menu) and go to OpenGL. There’s a place there to check to see what graphics card is being used.\nHave you done a cold reboot?\nDo you get a crash even with a simple model such as a rectangle?\nI have done a cold reboot. I just tried exporting a simple rectangle and that worked. I also just tried copying my model into a new file to see if maybe the file was corruped, but that didnt work. So I tried turning off some newer parts of the model and it seems Sketchup just didnt like something Id done.\nFrom the error message it sounds more like you have some stuff in your model that your graphics card doesn’t like.

Lauren Carmen: The Bag of my Dreams!\nThe Bag of my Dreams!\nWhen it comes to name brands or designer-anything, its never been an important factor for me. If the item in question looks good, is of a good quality and something I really love, then honestly I don't care where it's from. One of the things I enjoy is buying items that are affordable (let's be honest, I am a student) but still look amazing. With this in mind though, I am a girl who can't deny having always dreamed about my first 'big name bag' and what it would feel like purchasing it with my own, long-saved money. This ultimately brings us to the reason of this post: I bought my first Michael Kors handbag!\nBefore I set off on my holiday to New York, I had no intention of buying this handbag, or anything of the sort. This soon changed though, as when we went to Macy's, they were having a huge sale in all their departments! And basically it was just meant to be. I did consider buying a square shaped, baby pink coloured, Michael Kors handbag at first, which was such a pretty sight! When I thought about it however, I realised that I wanted this bag to be more practical, something I could fit all my things into and also a bag that I could wear everyday, with anything. And believe me, I spent a lot of time thinking about this decision! It was only natural then that when I spotted this beautiful, rich brown, leather one, I knew it was the kind I was looking for.\nThe leather is a really soft kind, allowing the bag easily to take on the shape of the contents it holds. There are three "compartments" inside - two on the sides and then a middle one, secured with a zip. My favourite part about it is that it has both small handles and a long, shoulder strap. The small handles make the bag feel very elegant and classic, while the longer shoulder strap creates a more practical way of holding it.\nThe gold accents are also something that grabbed me instantly! I have been loving gold lately, and it really looks so beautiful with the brown leather. I also can't forget to mention the famous 'MK' that is attached to the one handle. It's these small details that make the bag feel so, so special. I certainly think that if you're buying a designer bag, it should without a doubt feel special for you!\nTo sum up, I would definitely call this the bag of my dreams! Although seeing as I have it now, I suppose I don't have to dream about it...!\nI would also just like to say that in no way is this me boasting or anything horrible like that. I worked and saved my money for this and I am so proud that I got to purchase my first designer bag myself! And as with all things on my blog, I really enjoy getting to share what I'm loving, wearing, using, etc.\nOn that note, I really hope you enjoyed this post and all the pictures of my very-loved handbag! I would also loooove to know what you think of it!?

It's been far too long since my last Top 10 list (check out old ones here and here and here). With the founding premise of Next Stop Baby shifting to the new premise of Next Stop (Another) Baby, it seemed fitting to list signs that one is ready to add "another" to the mix. In case you're not sure that you're ready for baby number two, here are a few signs that you may be closer than you think.\n1. As your toddler is throwing scrambled eggs, screaming "MAMA!!!" at a deafening volume and kicking the underside of the restaurant table, you whisper to yourself with genuine joy, "Your little brother or sister is gonna think you're so funny."\n2. You learned to knit and are geared up for a baby blanket project. Maybe even a hat.\n3. When your toddler passes out in your arms (exhausted from a raging tantrum that was instigated when you refused to let him stick keys into an electrical outlet), rather than transfer him to the crib, you slowly lay down on the couch and gently scoot his body so that he sleeps on your chest.\n4. You've successfully taught your toddler to change a doll's diaper. A little tweaking and she could handle a one month old.\n6. When talking about the sleep deprivation you suffered during the first three months with your first born, you say, "It really wasn't that bad" and you believe it. (Your first born didn't sleep for more than 3 hours at a time until she was 5 months old and didn't sleep through the night until 1 year).\n7. Your memory of delivering your first born is spotty with a few happy, painless, foggy details.\n8. You finally broke down and upgraded to a mini-van.\n9. Those size 5 diapers are huge. You miss the little ones.\n10. That "ready" feeling you had the first time around - you feel it again.\nDan Osborne (UK reality TV hottie) with son Teddy.\nThere's nothing better than a baby sleeping on your chest.\n#3 & #10- definitely me. But I swear I'll never drive a minivan...NEVER!\nGet Your Paws Off My Kid. Please.

Phnom Penh is where the Cambodians live, work, play and pray. Its attractions are low key, forming part of the fabric of local life. The city sits at the confluence of the three great rivers of Indochina—the Mekong, Tonle Sap and the Bassac—and is the country’s commercial and political capital. It is crowded, chaotic and most importantly necessary in order to understand the everyday real Cambodia.\nThe city’s most important and popular cultural site is undoubtedly its Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda near the riverfront. Visitors are only allowed to visit the Pagoda and its compound. Photography is not permitted within the Pagoda itself. The Royal Palace was built in 1866 under the French Protectorate and King Norodom. Many of the buildings in the complex were added over the following decades.\nThe Silver Pagoda, so named because its floor is covered with over 5,000 silver tiles weighing 1kg each, is also known as Wat Preah Keo or Pagoda of the Emerald Buddha. The Pagoda was preserved by the Khmer Rouge to demonstrate to the international community its concern for the conservation of Cambodia’s cultural riches. Although around 60 percent of the Pagoda’s contents were destroyed under Pol Pot, what remains is still spectacular. The Emerald Buddha, said to be made of Baccarat crystal, sits on a gilt pedestal high atop the dais inside. In front of the dais stands a life-size gold Buddha decorated with 9,584 diamonds, the largest of which weighs 25 carats. Made in the palace workshops in 1907, the effigy weighs 90kg. The whole hall is further filled with countless statues and figurines of Buddha in gold and silver, their smiling serene faces echoing and reflecting each other. The sacredness within the walls literally tangible.\nToday was my last afternoon in Phnom Penh and I felt like a local. I know the roads by now, how to haggle with the tuk-tuk drivers, and carry our Khmer prayer rituals at the wats.\nWhy is it that just when a place starts to feel like home, it is time to leave? I’m not saying I love Phnom Penh or that it is the most beautiful city in the world. But it is now familiar and understandable, and thus dear. The chaotic traffic, the garbage heaps, young couples holding hands by the riverside as they gaze into their dreams, youth playing local games in the open spaces, vendors selling dead green chicks still in their shells, and prayers being offered to the gods at every corner and street.\nI spent much of my last afternoon at the National Museum. It is a beautiful place. Calm and serene. The red-roofed terra-cotta structure in traditional design (built in 1917-1920) is home to the world’s finest collection of Khmer sculpture and comprises four courtyards facing a garden. Over 5,000 objects are on display including a number of Angkor era statues. What is really touching about the Museum is that it feels sanctified, and is even treated by the locals as sacrosanct. Incense sticks and flowers stand sentinel in front of most effigies, while museum visitors bow and pray to them. Kneeling in front of these art works seems to be the most natural thing to do. These effigies have been worshipped for centuries by the Cambodians. Being brought into a museum had not lessened their divinity.\nMy favorites include the stunningly beautiful eight armed statue of Vishnu (6th or 7th Century AD), a statue of Buddha (6th Century AD) and the meditative seated figure of Jayavarman VII (12 Century AD). In a little annex, scores of Buddhas fill a room with a prayer mat in front of them. It seemed sacrilege to just pass by without offering a prayer to them too.\nAfter spending hours strolling amidst the sculptures at the Museum I wandered off to Wat Phnom where I wanted to pray in Khmer style for the last time. And ended up laughing and joking with the children thronging the courtyards, alternately begging and playing games amongst themselves.\nWat Phnom is where the Khmers prefer to pray for luck and has a charming story associated with it. Legend has it that the city of Phnom Penh was founded when an old woman named Penh came upon four Buddha statues that had come to rest on the banks of the Mekong river. She housed these effigies on a nearby hill and the town that grew up here came to be known as Phnom Penh (Hill of Penh). The current temple was last rebuilt in 1926. The steps of the Wat are lined with land mine victims with amputated arms and legs. It is a gut wrenching sight. As one files past them to pray at the vihara (temple sanctuary), one asks oneself, “to whom?” But then that is Cambodia. Infinite suffering with infinite faith. Without questions. Without any questions at all.\nCame evening and I dropped into one of the deep leather sofas at the FCC facing the riverfront. The FCC or Foreign Correspondents Club is a delightful place and I guess could be defined as the most “happening” place in Phnom Penh! The F as expats like to call it, is housed in a grand old colonial era building and its open balconies have the most gorgeous views of the Tonle Sap and Mekong rivers.\nTwo weeks had just sped by. Yet it felt like such a long time. These past 14 days had been a completely different experience from any of my previous travels. The poverty, the pain, the simplicity of the people, the gloriousness of their art, the profoundness of their faith … and therefrom the realization that life was not measured by its tears, but by the moments our souls soar and touch the skies instead.\nThis entry was posted in Cambodia, Exploring our World and tagged Buddhism, Cambodia, Foreign Correspondents Club, Khmer Empire, Khmer Rouge, Khmer Sculpture, Mekong River, National Museum, Pagoda of the Emerald Buddha, Phnom Penh, Royal Palace, Silver Pagoda, Things to see in Cambodia, Tonle Sap River, Wat Phnom by Rama Arya. Bookmark the permalink.\nwhat a beautiful place to visit . Great pictures and description from the land of Buddha.\nThank you Yogi Saraswat for stopping by and commenting. Appreciated. 🙂 Cambodia is a beautiful country which warrants a visit at least once in a lifetime.

“The win marks yet another step forward in our company’s journey towards transforming the service experiences of customers and financial advisers,” says Regard Budler, Head: Product Solutions, Momentum Corporate.\n“Smart Underwriting is an efficient, customer-centric digital process. The ‘at your finger tips’ Smart Underwriting technology platform enables customers to engage with the insurer through preferred everyday channels, on a real-time basis. It also helps to solve the industry-wide problem of under-insurance and reduce the staggering insurance shortfall,” says Budler.\nThe families of South Africa’s 14 million income earners face a combined insurance shortfall of R28.8 trillion, according to a 2016 Association of Savings and Investments South Africa (ASISA) study. One of the many reasons for this shocking figure is underwriting - the process used by insurers to gather the medical information necessary to assess an individual’s risk before granting or increasing cover.\nThe Smart Underwriting service uses a combination of SMS, email and a secure website, which the customer accesses with a secure one-time pin login and authentication process. Email communication keeps the financial adviser informed throughout the customer journey.\nSmart Underwriting is Momentum Corporate’s third ‘smart’ service over the last two years, following Smart Exits and Smart Retirements. The Smart Exits solution won a Loeries gold award in 2017.

Regent University is one of the best universities for Christian Studies. Although the university offers most career choices the religious studies program is outstanding. The class choices were vast and exceptional for those entering into the ministry of Jesus Christ. I learned from some of the best and brightest professors. Not only are the tops in their field, they help you absorb the information, not just for rote learning. What I have learned has equipped me with knowledge that will take me to the next level of learning in order that I may offer my giftedness to those who wish to learn the vastness of Christ and all that he offers those who follow him. Although I attended Regent University online it was no problem reaching out to the professors for help. There was usually less than a twenty four hour turnaround for answers to my questions. I also had the opportunity to message some of my instructor and the help was immediate. I would highly recommend Regent to anyone who wishes to further their education in any field of study. The university has excellent services and the campuses are nestled in to a beautiful area in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Not only are the campuses beautiful they are state of the art. Each hall is easily accessible to those with disabilities and staff there are always willing to go the extra mile for their students. I could not have asked for a better education than that at Regent.\nI was recruited by them after inquiring about an online degree that allowed one to study abroad. I was assured that i was able to continue taking courses year round like the school I was currently attending ( as to not fall behind in my degree plan) I was assured that the online course schedule was nearly exactly the same as the current school. EVERY single on of these was inaccurate. I would have had to pay nearly 3xs tuition (campus) to study abroad, the financial advisor assigned to me completely forgot to budget in my summer classes, thus resulting in me falling an entire semester behind and the course schedules required me to log on nearly everyday, and the professors are not understanding. (which as an adult in a full time career was impossible.) Every 6 weeks or so i would receive a call about my financial aid not being completed and me owing money, or that they needed my transcripts (which i had to send 5 times in a matter of 6 months...seriously y'all NOT and exaggeration). Ultimately I transferred out in less than a year back to my previous school. I figured it was a fluke, bad staffing so getting ready for grad programs I figured I would try them out again, especially being a Christian school...they have been blowing up my phone excited for me to start just to tell me that I owe another school money and they can't accept me....even though they did for undergrad. Anyway just a forewarning online is NOT the way to go with them, and be ready to babysit your finances and coursework.\nThis school is a joke. They get you to sign up and don't tell you about the extra class that you have to take. I started attending Regents after recieving a Masters from a SUNY, all online. All schools now a days use pretty much the same things as it comes to black board and other online tools. However, Regents, if you have a masters or not, requires you to take this class that is a complete waste of time, especially if you are taking another Masters degree. I will not be graduating from this school, I will be looking for another.\nThis online Masters program is challenging, but very rewarding! The courses force you to study. They have the entire online program very well formatted and thought through. I work full time, so online is the best for me. Im so proud that I have graduated!\nSo far the classes have been okay. Some things I don't like is sometimes there is no constience. Example most online schools have all discussion boards due on a certain day to cause less confusion. At regent one class it may be due Wednesday and the other Friday. The price is a little higher compared to a lot of non profit schools. Most schools only charge one technology fee per school year not every semester. The technology fee is also outrageous at $300 a semester. Whereas most colleges are around $75-$100 per academic calender.\nI applied to this school as a graduate student and was immediately contacted by an advisor. Initially, my advisor appeared to be very thorough, she called very often, and the feedback she gave was always positive. I submitted ALL the required documentations, essays, etc and she all but assured me that I would get in. There was a delay with one of my transcripts from my former college, they were late in sending it in. In the interim, my application was denied. I called the school to find out the exact reason for the denial, called the advisor for her trusted feedback but never heard from her or anyone else from the school again. I sent emails, but I was shunned and ignored. It's so obvious that they're only concerned with you .. if you could potententially make them money. They see you as potential PROFIT and nothing else. If you can't make them money, you're tossed to the side without getting as much as a response to your call or email. It's sad because they claim to represent Christ.\nI attended Regent University through their online program offered using Blackboard. Having an option for proactive college studies that I could do at home during this time was an amazing opportunity for myself. Within my own state I did not have options at the time to attend a quality school towards a vocation in Christian Ministry, but Regent allowed me to still pursue that goal. The program itself was great, assignments and work are on the student's own time in 8 week long, accelerated classes, and the degree earned is the same as one could get through a residential, on-campus degree. I had very many great professors during my time, and what I learned (both in general education and for my Major) sculpted and shaped me in a tremendously great way. The costs of the university using this method of education were also much more affordable, around ten thousand a year. I highly recommend Regent University for any student seeking college education, without the ability to relocate to a post-secondary campus location. Now with my B.A. degree in Christian Ministry from Regent, I have been inspired to seek a Master of Divinity degree towards my vocation in Discipleship Ministry.\nIt is better to attend classes in person than using the online option through Regent University. There is no check and balances in regards to how teachers personalize humility. We are paying institutions to teach us. When you are face to face with a professor, it is very difficult to personalize humility, and often teacher find it a responsibility to get a student in the right direction. Whereas, online, there is no feeling of responsibility to do what is right since there is no moral obligation looking them dead in the eyes. 2 out of 4 teachers took advantage of this, and made their courses very difficult in completing.\nI began the online Master's in Journalism at Regent in 2014. I found only about 2/3 of the classes have been beneficial, which for as inflexible and tight a degree it is, was incredibly discouraging. The Journalism Technology Tools class was at a first-year undergraduate level. The Internet Marketing and Story, Pop Culture, & Worldview courses were taught in an approach irrelevant to the degree. What perhaps was most discouraging was the amount of required time towards peer responses. The bar for Regent's program seems to be set very low. While I would spend time to respond to classmate's work, I'd often in return get, "U rite perty. You is done a good job!" Not that any of it mattered, as beyond mandatory responses, we weren't required to really interact or even follow up to responses. Its a sloppy attempt to facilitate a classroom dynamic when there is none. Throughout the courses, however, I did enjoy the rigor of many of the assignments. I was satisfied with the challenges some of the writing courses presented. However, the final year was a chore as I lost my two favorite professors, Dr. Michael Patrick and the late Dr. Bruce Swaffield. In the end, I was left with a degree that I felt I earned but was dissatisfied by the process. If I were to pursue another online degree, I'd look elsewhere.\nit was very satisfying. Hard at times, but very worth the effort.\n87% of 98 users found this page helpful.

Not everyone is an elite athlete, but everybody still has a right to expect to look and feel their best, and to have a sense of well-being. Your fitness is the key!\nWhen people talk about fitness, they generally mean cardio-vascular (aerobic) fitness. Most daily activities rely almost completely on the aerobic system, hence the importance of developing this system. Your level of aerobic fitness is determined by the amount of oxygen that your body can utilise during physical activity. By increasing your body’s ability to use oxygen, the fitter you become and therefore the more activities you can perform.\nA variety of exercise is recommended for your aerobic activity. These exercises should involve large muscle groups and be rhythmical in nature. Examples include running, walking, cycling, boxing, dancing, etc.\nIt is necessary to consider your fitness level in determining your intensity of exercise. An intensity of 70% of maximum volume of oxygen (MVO²), for one person will be very different to that of another person. As a general rule, when commencing a new training program, gradually increase the volume and intensity of your exercise, e.g. walk → jog → run.\nTo gain optimum benefit from your aerobic training program, it is recommended that you periodise your program, i.e. change the intensity and volume of your training program at regular intervals, e.g. monthly. This will cause your body to continually adapt to your training program and therefore gain maximum benefits.

A long-term plan that secures the future of Rochester Airport has been approved by Medway Council.\nThe Rochester Airport Masterplan includes proposals for 1,000 jobs with the creation of a new hub for science and technology firms and much-improved facilities in this key location.\nThe approval of the masterplan comes after a comprehensive public consultation.\nFirst established in 1933, the Rochester Airport site is owned by Medway Council and has been leased since to an airport operator – Rochester Airport Limited.\nProposals involve replacing many of the existing buildings and facilities on the airport that are now reaching the end of their useful life and a reconfiguration of the existing runways.\nOne of the grass runways on site will be closed and replaced with a new parallel grass and paved runway. The paved runway will allow a small aircraft to take off and climb to a higher altitude very quickly, reducing the impact of noise on surrounding homes.\nThe grass runway will allow the nationally recognised Medway Aircraft Preservation Society (MAPS) to continue to use the site for heritage aircraft and open days.\nThe new runway layout will allow 29 acres near to Rochester Airport Industrial Estate to be developed as a new hub for science or technology related firms – with the potential to eventually create up to 1,000 new skilled jobs.\nThere are no plans to develop Rochester Airport into a commercial airport.\nCllr Alan Jarrett, Deputy Leader of Medway Council and Portfolio Holder for Finance, said: “Rochester Airport is an important asset for Medway and securing its future will help contribute to the regeneration and economic development of Medway.\n“We want to ensure the future of the airport by maximising its potential for jobs and tourism and that’s what the masterplan does.\nTry this second recipes from Michelin star chef and Gary Rhodes protegégé Paul Welburn, head chef at Searcys.\nTry this recipe for a birthday dinner or even St Valentines Day, from Michelin star chef and Gary Rhodes protegégé Paul Welburn, head chef at Searcys.\nNext place the lobsters into a pan of boiling salted water and allow to cook for 8 minutes, remove and place into iced water, immediately remove the shell and slice the meat up and reserve the claws for garnish.\nMix gently the chilled sliced lobster meat with the mayonnaise, crème fraiche, herbs, lemon juice and season to taste, keep till required.\nFor the bloody Mary sorbet combine all the ingredients in a bowl , like the drink it’s a personal preference to the seasoning, lemon juice and heat from the tabasco, for me I like that strong kick of flavour and this ends up as the replacement for the traditional Mary Rose sauce in the finished dish so bear this in mind.\nFor the pickled fennel bring all the ingredients apart from the fennel to the boil and then pour directly onto the thinly sliced fennel , cover and leave for a minimum of 1 hour to marinade, the longer the better if possible.\nFor the avocado puree place all the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth adjust the seasoning to taste .\nMedway Council will set aside a row of seats at Full Council meetings for citizen journalists as it values the work they do scrutinising the authority.\nThe council’s Full Council meetings take place at the St George’s Centre in Chatham.\nEach time they are held around six citizen journalists come along to live Tweet as the meeting happens before them.\nTo recognise the fact that citizen journalists play an important part in local democracy, Medway wishes to make it easier for them.\nAnd now it will make the row available (usually at the front) to try and ensure they have a place.\nThe council has already Tweeted this message to announce this news and will ask citizen journalists on the day to tweet us to say they are coming – as spaces will be limited.\nCllr Alan Jarrett, Deputy Leader and Portfolio Holder for Finance, said: “We are very keen to engage with people and to help them play a part in local democracy.\n“Our council meetings do get a number of people turning up in the public gallery including citizen journalists who spend the night Tweeting about what is being said.\nAs spaces are limited, Medway Council is asking those who wish to use the citizen journalists’ row on the night of Full Council meetings to please Tweet us @medway_council on the day.\nThe annual memorial service for Charles George Gordon is to take place at the Gordon Memorial Gardens on Friday 24 January, 2014 at 11am.\nThis year marks the 129th anniversary of his death at Khartoum and a small working party have devised a special service to commemorate this local hero.\nThe service is to be officiated by Rev Graham Herbert from Milton Church and attended by the Mayor of Gravesham, Cllr Derek Sales who along with pupils from Chantry School, members of the Royal Engineers Association and the president of Gravesend and Meopham Rotary Club, will be laying flowers placed at the foot of Gordon’s Memorial.\nThe Gravesend Borough Band with additional members from the Salvation Army will be providing musical accompaniment to the service and members of the Gads Hill School Combined Cadet Force will be in attendance as guard of honour.\nBritish general Charles Gordon became a national hero for his exploits in China and his ill-fated defence of Khartoum against Sudanese rebels. Gordon lived and worked in Gravesend between 1865 and 1871 and during that time showed great generosity and kindness to the poor people of the borough. He was appointed to upgrade the various fortifications along the Thames which included the New Tavern Fort. He lived in Fort House in the grounds of the New Tavern Fort. The building was demolished following an explosion caused by a V2 in 1944.\nCharles Gordon was born on 28 January 1833, the son of a senior army officer. He was commissioned into the Royal Engineers in 1852. He distinguished himself in the Crimean War (1853 – 1856) and in 1860 volunteered for the ‘Arrow’ war against the Chinese. In May 1862 Gordon’s corps of engineers was assigned to strengthen the European trading centre of Shanghai, which was threatened by the insurgents of the Taiping Rebellion. A year later he became commander of the 3,500-man peasant force raised to defend the city. During the next 18 months Gordon’s troops played an important role in suppressing the Taiping uprising.\nHe returned to England in January 1865, where an enthusiastic public had already dubbed him ‘Chinese Gordon’. In 1873 he was appointed governor of the province of Equatoria in the Sudan. Between April 1874 and December 1876 he mapped the upper Nile and established a line of stations along the river as far south as present day Uganda. He was then promoted to governor-general, where he asserted his authority, crushing rebellions and suppressing the slave trade. However, ill health forced him to resign and return to England in 1880 before travelling once more to places including India, China and South Africa.\nIn February 1884 Gordon returned to the Sudan to evacuate Egyptian forces from Khartoum, threatened by Sudanese rebels led by Muhammad Ahmad al-Mahdi. Khartoum came under siege the next month and on 26th January 1885 the rebels broke into the city, killing Gordon (against al-Mahdi’s instructions) and the other defenders. The British relief force arrived two days later.\nThe British public reacted to his death by acclaiming ‘Gordon of Khartoum’, who had had a strong Christian faith, a martyred warrior-saint and by blaming the government, particularly Gladstone, for failing to relieve the siege.\nConfirmation that government will provide funds to buy a site at Chatham Docks for Medway’s new University Technical College (UTC) clears the way for the public to be consulted on proposals for the educational establishment.\nThe move follows the agreement by Minister for Schools, Lord Nash, that the Department for Education will release the finance for the college.\nThe consultation begins today ( 20 January 2014), and runs until 3 February. This will allow local people to put forward their views on the UTC and what they think about the suitability of the UTC Trust’s proposals for young people in Medway. They will be able to respond online, by post, by phone and by email (details below).\nIn addition, a series of events will be held in February where members of the public can turn up and discover more about the UTC, as well as share their views (details also below).\nThe UTC, which will specialise in engineering and construction, is due to open in September 2015.\nIt is sponsored by the University of Greenwich, Mid Kent College, Medway Council, BAE Systems, and other local employers and partners.\nThe UTC will provide a technically rich education for up to 600 students aged between 14 and 19, for 40 weeks of the year. The working day will typically be from 08.30 until 17:00 to reinforce the business approach to the UTC.\nProfessor Reed added: “An essential part of the development of the UTC is listening to the views of as wide range of people as possible, to ensure that Medway UTC fully meets the needs of local young people, their families, employers and others.\n“The consultation provides everyone with a valuable opportunity to provide their views.\nCllr Rodney Chambers, the leader of Medway Council, said: “Medway has a rich history of construction and engineering, and a University Technical College specialising in these subjects will not only continue this tradition, but will also equip a new generation with first class technical skills that will help them pursue careers in these important sectors at all levels.\nThe UTC will be situated on a 5,000m2 single site, with all the facilities required to deliver a high quality technical and vocational education.\nIt will feature state of the art buildings that will combine business and workplace facilities and ethos within an academic environment.\nA holocaust survivor will recall the horrors of fleeing Nazi Germany during a special event at Rochester Cathedral.\nSusi Bechhofer, who wrote a moving book of her experience, is expected to talk about how she fled Germany at the age of three and and how it took her almost 50 years to learn that her mother had died in the gas chambers of Auschwitz, in Poland, in the Second World War.\nSusi’s account is part of an event to mark Holocaust Memorial Day at the cathedral on Monday, January 27, at 6pm.\nMedway schools have been busy preparing for the event and there will be readings, poetry, drama, music, exhibits and prayers by pupils.\nPupils will also reflect on more recent genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia and Bosnia, focusing on the current problems in South Sudan.\nIn addition to the Memorial Day, there will be an exhibition of artwork at Rochester Guildhall produced by schools and Mid Kent College students.\nA Peace Wall has also been created where individuals will be able to pledge what they can do to make the world a better place.\nMembers of the Medway Youth Parliament will be taking the Peace Wall to the Pentagon Centre in Chatham on January 25 and it will be at the cathedral on the day of the service, which this year has the theme of ‘Journeys’.\nHolocaust Memorial Day is being supported by Medway Council, Rochester Cathedral, Medway Youth Parliament, Chatham Memorial Synagogue and Medway Inter Faith Action.\nPaul Weller announces Forestry Commission gigs.\nPaul Weller has confirmed five forest gigs, appearing as part of the Forestry Commission’s Forest Live concert programme in spectacular woodland locations across the country.\nIt’s been thirty years since Paul Weller first exploded onto the music scene, suited and booted, and armed with statement tunes in The Jam. Blending the best of British with his love of Motown, Weller crafted a new landscape in the UK music scene thanks to an impressive portfolio of work including amongst others, Stanley Road, Illumination, 22 Dreams and 2013’s Sonik Kicks all hitting Number One. A significant figure in popular music for the past three generations, he remains a cultural icon.\nFollowing on from two sold out Forest Live dates last summer, Paul said of the 2014 shows, “It’s a favourite summer jaunt for me so I look forward to performing in a few of the forests that I haven’t played in a good while”.

You can present your wife with a box of chocolates or even a bunch of beautiful flowers. Fill the basket with a customary anniversary flowers. A bouquet of red rose is a good choice. An alternative would be to pack the basket with DVD of romantic songs, bath set, make up set, voucher for shopping at her best store and movie tickets. Decorate the basket with attractive papers. If she loves reading, you can buy her books of her best author. She is going to appreciate you for all the effort that you will have put in collecting the items.\nThis is one of the oldest anniversary gift idea. When it comes to a photo frame, you can create your own personalized gift by including your best memories. Have a photo frame with the pictures of the both of you. Present a booklet with all memorable activities of you and your partner. This is the best way to re live those moments again.\nWrite your loved one a love letter. Poetry or a love letter is one of the best thing you can do for the anniversary. This is how you can show or express your true feelings for her. Include the things that you have cherished for the duration you have been together and she will be happy. Write the letter with colorful glitters and decorate it with pictures. You can then roll down the letter and pack it with a gift paper. An alternative would be to write her a love song and sing it to her.\nIf it is your first anniversary, you should opt for a clock.

Sweet and Sassy was a location of the chain salon and spa for young girls located on Monroe Avenue in the Pittsford Colony Plaza.\n2009-03-15 17:57:50 We went to Cheesecake Factory yesterday and saw this crazy pink stretch-limo in the parking lot across the street. The sign on the side said "Party Girls on the Go". I took a photo and posted it in my Fun Stuff Album (also uploaded above), because it was juxtaposed against the Rochester Athletic Club for Women - thought that was kind of humorous - girls party and women workout.

Ask a Candid Boss: How Should I Talk to My Boss About Moving Into a Leadership Role?\nHow can I approach my current leader to see if I would be considered for a formal leadership role in the future? How do I start that conversation in a way that makes me seem qualified—and not just pushy or impatient?\nI know that this conversation can seem nerve-wracking, but remember that it’s also exciting! You’re thinking about taking the next step in your career and a good manager will be equally enthusiastic about your hunger for growth.\nWhen starting this conversation, the key thing is to not only explain the fact that you’re interested in management, but also why you’re interested.\nIf you can prove that you understand what the job is, why you would enjoy it, provide evidence that you would be good at it, and explain you can have more impact for the team as a manager than you do in your current role, your promotion to leadership will actually solve problems for your boss—not create them (that is, assuming there’s a role available to promote you to).\nBut before you get into that, you need to ask yourself: Do you want to be a manager for the sake of a more prestigious title, or do you really want to do the things that managers do?\nYou’ll be persuasive if you can show that you understand what managers are actually responsible for, and that you are eager to do those things yourself. But if all you really want is more control, more money, or just the bragging rights, your boss will quickly pick up on your intentions and you’ll risk undermining your credibility.\nRemember, managers have a lot on their plate—and those duties aren’t always fun. As a leader, you’ll actively solicit criticism from your team members. You’ll give formal performance reviews. You’ll be held accountable for other people’s results—which means you’ll often have accountability without control.\nFor some people, all of that sounds exciting and meaningful. For others, that sounds like a living hell.\nManagement is important, but it’s certainly not the only path to major impact. It’s a rewarding route, but it’s also a hard one—so make sure the day-to-day of the job sounds appealing to you before approaching your boss to discuss moving up in the ranks. Do that, and you’re far more likely to have a great conversation.\nPhoto of two people walking courtesy of Megan Maloy/Getty Images.

Directed immune cell migration plays important roles in immunosurveillance and immune responses. Understanding the mechanisms of immune cell migration is important for the biology of immune cells with high relevance to immune cell trafficking mediated physiological processes and diseases. Immune cell migration can be directed by various guiding cues such as chemical concentration gradients (a process termed chemotaxis) and direct current electric fields (dcEF)(a process termed electrotaxis). Microfluidic devices that consist of small channels with micrometer dimensions have been increasingly developed for cell migration studies. These devices can precisely configure and flexibly manipulate chemical concentration gradients and electric fields, and thus provide powerful quantitative test beds for studying the complex guiding mechanisms for cell migration. In the research of this thesis, a PDMS-based and a glass-based microfluidic devices were developed for producing controlled dcEF and these devices were used to analyze electrotaxis of activated human blood T cells. Using both devices, we have successfully demonstrated that activated human blood T cells migrate toward the cathode of the applied dcEF. Furthermore, a novel microfluidic device was developed to configure better controlled single or co-existing chemical gradients and dcEF to mimic the complex guiding environments in tissues and this device was used to investigate the competition of chemical gradients and dcEF in directing activated human blood T cell migration.

By now, you're probably just as obsessed with Stranger Things and IT actor Finn Wolfhard.\nHe's made a pretty huge and incredible name for himself, so naturally, the world is getting to know him a little more.\nAnd in doing so, they're finding his doppelgänger... duh!\nSo, who's the lucky person to look just like him? None other than Lauren Mayberry from CHVRCHES.\nWhat's even better about the whole situation is that Lauren posted a side by side image of herself and Finn on her Instagram, which had the text: "I'm convinced that the Stranger Things kid and the lead singer of CHVRCHES are the same person."\nYep. We're convinced these two are somehow related now.

Intelligence For Your Life - Are Cats As Smart As Dogs?\nAre Cats As Smart As Dogs?\nFind out what researchers discovered when they tested them!\nCat lovers, hear this: A new study from Kyoto University in Japan says cats are just as smart as dogs! The researchers gave cats memory tests - and they performed just as well as dogs. They can recall memories of a tasty snack… and other pleasant experiences, like lying by a favorite sunny window. Those are known as episodic memories. That’s a memory tied to a specific time and place. It’s like rewinding a video and playing back a moment in your head.\nAnd recently, researchers discovered that’s what dogs have… and now we know cats have it, too! The study discovered that cats can also learn how to respond to human gestures, facial expressions and emotions. And cats can remember where they found food in an unfamiliar location - and go back to that spot to see if they can find food there again. So the next time a die-hard dog lover tells you dogs are smarter - you can say, “Actually, I heard cats are just as smart” - from Intelligence For Your Life.

Turkey is gaining more and more interest from foreigners who want to work or establish a business in the country in the last few years. Of course, like in every country, there are some difficulties due to the cultural differences foreigners may face in Turkish business life as well. Although these difficulties are not unique to Turkey and there might be challenges to overcome Turkish business life still offer international standards for business people.\nOne of the main difficulties foreigners need to overcome in Turkish business life is the problem of communication. It is widely known that knowledge of English is very important for Turkish people both in education and business life in Turkey, yet many people are having difficulties with English and cannot speak English fluently. Of course, people speak English very fluently at international companies, but if you are working in a place where no one knows or speaks English that will be a big challenge for you. So the communication problem depends on where you work but if you want to work in Turkey and plan to reside in the country longer it is recommended to learn Turkish. Aside from your job, in your everyday life, in the street or in a restaurant or in a cafe you need to communicate with Turkish people and even only for this reason learning Turkish will be a great asset for you.\nTurkish people are very friendly and sincere individuals. When they meet a new person, whether a foreign or not, if they like you they become fast friends with you and take you ‘under their wings.’ It means they would like to hang out with you at the workplace, during the breaks or even when you have free time outside of the work. They may ask you personal questions about your life such as your ideas about religion or politics and so on. For foreigners, especially people from Western societies who are not used to this kind of nosiness, they may find this odd and as one of the difficulties, they need to overcome. But do not worry, even if Turkish people have no boundaries and filters when it comes to your private life they mean no harm. In the end, when you have a problem, even it is something very mundane, they will be first to come to your rescue. Not to exaggerate but you can trust Turkish people even with your life.\nTurkey is one of the countries with the longest working hours. According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the average working time for EU countries is 40.3 hours per week, while in Turkey it is 49.4 hours per week on average. Therefore, the long working hours can create certain difficulties for foreigners who are used to shorter working hours back in their home. Especially if you are coming from a Europian country where working hours are restricted due to the EU regulations, you may have a hard time to adapt.\nTurkey is home to many different cultures, especially if you work in an international company, and the possibility of working with a great variety of people is very high. At first, this change can be hard to adapt and you may think that this is one of the difficulties you need to encounter throughout your work life. But that is not the case, if you try to communicate and be more open with your colleagues despite your differences, then they will welcome you. Turkish people are pretty easy to satisfy, just be sincere and honest with them. Also, trying to learn more about your colleagues’ personalities will help you to understand them better. In the end, while your learn about Turkish culture maybe you can even teach your friends your culture as well.\nAlthough they are some difficulties they may face in the business life, Turkey still offers many opportunities, low living costs, rich culture and very friendly workplace for foreigners.

Teaching Experience: My experience at Renaissance has covered both Primary and Secondary. I am now based permanently in Secondary, teaching English in KS3, IGCSE and IB. I also have extensive experience teaching the grammar rules of English, which I feel helps many aspects of my teaching.\nProfessional Accomplishments: For the last four years, I have organised the Renaissance Summer Learners programme, we attracted more than 100 students each year, for our six-week course.

My first job in film: What is a corporate film or video production company?\nCorporate production companies create films which attach the boardroom to its staff, products to consumers and sponsors to charity campaigns. It's a specialised area of the business that can utilise any cinematic style to suit the tone of a films message.\nCorporate films, or corporate videos, are used to connect the boardroom to its employees and convey the company's ethics and ethos to the consumer. Video content online has become increasingly popular for company websites alongside the written material. Video content stands an 80% higher chance of engagement as it requires less from the viewer and keeps their attention focused on the screen for longer. Production companies also create films for fundraising, awareness and promotional purposes. In the world of business, films are necessary communication tools that can create engagement and inform opinion.\nOnline Commercials. Freedom from the 30 seconds of screen time and significantly cheaper, commercials for online content are of a lower budget but have the opportunity to go viral if they have a great story behind them. Making shareable content is a way of organically promoting your company.\nTraining Videos. Staff training or first aid training videos can be a useful tool in the workplace, and save companies significant amounts of money when looking to induct employees.\nFilms for conference. The conference itself can be filmed, allowing viewers full access to the extended content from the day’s events. Films are also made for the conference, such as an address from the CEO if not in attendance.\nConsumer testimonials. Connecting potential customers to previous customer experience whether on the website or within the online consumer marketplace.\nIndustrial. Films aimed at companies working within a specific industry, used for business to business marketing or at trade shows.\nInternal communications. Films made to be placed on company intranets are a useful tool to connect senior staff with their employees.\nPromotional or branded content. Promotional films are largely web or intranet based. They can come in the form of panel discussions designed to showcase products and create interaction.\nCharity film. One of the most efficient ways for charities to reach out to their supporters and funders is via a film. A film detailing the work they carry out, who it affects and what you can do to make a difference is a major asset to fundraisers.\nWho makes films for businesses?\nCorporate communications companies specialise in making films for business, government organisations and charities. Producers working on corporate films need to be able to understand their client's business model which can be anything from an ammunitions to Royal Mail. Much like the commercials industry, corporate communications have their own awards events, with particular companies taking the lion's share of the larger multinational corporations work. Production companies come in all sizes, though, including smaller start-up companies.\nHow long does it take to make a corporate film?\nCorporate films for big clients such as international brands or government organisations will need to submit a treatment and attach a director to the project, who will discuss the options with the clients. Corporate films utilise all forms of narrative storytelling, the style of the film can dictate the duration of the shoot. If the client chooses a script that is a drama, the production time can be weeks rather than days for filming. If the budget is high the more likely crew working on features and commercials will become involved with the shoot.\nCorporate films can cross over into any genre from documentary to drama, as long as it serves the message a company wish to deliver. Drama can be anything from a training video or awareness campaign; the documentary format can be utilised when charting the work of a charity in remote locations. The crew can find themselves working on a day of back to back interviews with executives, filming a conference, high end branded content with high production value or an elongated version of a car commercial.\nDepending on the budget you can find a full drama crew on the higher end of the corporate video spectrum, with a more select crew (camera, sound, camera assistant) on the more compact end. Typically a smaller crew is used for interviewing company executives.\nHoDs are hired by the production managers, the rest of the crew are usually hired at the HoD’s recommendations. The production manager will be the one negotiating the rate and sending out a Purchase Order for your services.\nhow do i find a job at a corporate production company?\nMany corporate companies do offer internships, so look at MFJF jobs board and the companies themselves to see if they run an existing internship programme. If you are at stage 2-3 of your career plan you should have made some connections within the industry, many of whom will no doubt be fitting in the odd corporate here and there. Much like commercials, corporate rates are usually higher than broadcast rates or low/micro budget films. Working practice, like a lunch hour, is often observed. If you wish to work within the company, whether on the account management side or the production side, having an awareness of the private and third sectors would be advantageous.

Acoustic welding, and more particularly ultrasonic welding, has become increasingly popular in a number of industries. For example, businesses in the textile and personal products industries often manufacture products such as diapers, clothing, etc., that are ultrasonically welded. Ultrasonic welding tools operate under the principle of applying acoustic energy in the ultrasonic frequency range (i.e., at or above 20 kHz) to a horn. The horn vibrates in response to the applied acoustic energy to further produce an output acoustic energy. The output acoustic energy is applied to the materials (typically thermoplastics) being joined by positioning the horn in the vicinity of the parts. The vibrational energy travels through the parts, and at the interface between the parts, is converted to heat. The conversion is due to intermolecular friction that melts and fuses the parts together.\nWhile a number of horn configurations have been developed, it is well known that a good way to attain high quality and high speed ultrasonic welds is to use a rotary horn with a rotating anvil. Typically, a rotary horn is cylindrical and rotates around an axis. The input acoustic energy is in the axial direction and the output acoustic energy is in the radial direction. The horn and anvil are essentially two cylinders positioned close to each other, rotating in opposite directions with equal or nonequal tangential velocities. The parts to be bonded pass between these cylindrical surfaces at a linear velocity which usually matches the tangential velocity of these cylindrical surfaces. Matching the tangential velocities of the rotary horn and the anvil with the linear velocity of the parts can minimize the drag between the horn and the parts.\nUltrasonics is also the method of choice for these materials, for example for parting fabrics so that there is no thickening of the material along the cut edges.\nNo consumables such as glue, staples or sewing thread are needed. The fabric remains intact, because no external thermal energy is directed into the fleece. Position, shape and displacement of the welding points can even support the desired properties of the composite.\nTextiles is thus a field where ultrasonic technology can prove its uniqueness.\nHC-SONIC specializes in manufacturing ultrasonic seam welding solutions for rotational systems.\nNumerous seam soldering devices have been developed over the past years. From sonotrodes that can be installed in automated assembly lines, the Elmrt35 ultrasounds sewing machine up to customizations such as the PFW model devised for continuous welding of pleated filters.\nThere are two types of rotating modules for these operations: with either a side or central sonotrode resonating at a 35 kHz frequency and power varying from 600W to 1200W.\nThese horns can be made out of aluminium, treated with a special surface strengthening procedure, or titanium.\nOur seam welding solutions are employed in binding synthetic textiles such as PVC, polyester, polypropylene, coated, filtering and technical fabrics.\nSpecial length, please inform us.\nAn ultrasonic sewing machine is versatile and easy to use in order to seam, cut, slit, trim, tack, emboss, or to cut and seal at the same time. The process used by every ultrasonic sewing machine is fast, simple and efficient. It can seal up to 80 meters per minute without the need for threads nor needles.\nIt is indeed a flexible technology. Due to the adaptability of its design, it is possible to mount the sewing machine on a workbench or to install it into semi or fully automated systems.\nInstead of needles, thread, glues or other adhesives, ultrasonic sewing equipment uses a patented rotary system, coupled with high-frequency vibrations, to bond synthetic or blended materials containing up to 40 percent natural fibers.

After an exciting Cowboy Joe Day yesterday that finished off with a grand firework show, we returned to our regular action packed schedule. The day started off with delicious breakfast of strawberry-banana french toast sticks and bacon. As always the kitchen staff knows how to feed a camp full of hungry boys. Following breakfast, the campers were truly awakened by another rousing morning yell. Today, Jacob delivered our chapel talk before the campers made their cabins squeaky clean.\nToday in activity periods, campers soared to new heights and earned their bars. In rocketry, Will C. started working on his level 3 rocket. Once he puts the finishing touches on and gives the rocket a custom paint job, he will launch it and earn his gold bar. Billy B. continued to hone his skills in pottery by throwing on the wheel for the first time. He is well on his way to becoming an expert potter.\nIn the midst of the activities, campers enjoyed their daily free time. Along with drinks and candy from the Trading Post, the recent trend of playing spike ball for the entire free time continued with campers competing against each other and counselors. Spike ball is now one of Camp Timberlake’s most favorite free time activities.\nReturning to classes, the archery range saw Callum B. and Calvin T. earn their bronze bars. Calvin T. finished off his bronze by shooting his 5th grouping. In order to be great climbers, climbing class worked hard today on learning the Figure 8 Follow Through and Double Fishermans’ Prusik Knot. Simon C. excelled at learning the Figure 8 Follow Through knot. Once the knots had been perfected, the class climbed on the traverse wall. Hudson L. rocked it on the traverse wall!\nWhile everyone at camp enjoyed their activities, James B., Jack E., and Harrison C., crushed it on the kayaking trip to the Pigeon River. This is the largest kayaking trip we take here so that means these guys are expert paddlers. After a day full of activities and a kayaking trip, we devoured a dinner of Asian food. Dinner gave us the energy required to compete hard in our tribal competitions. The older campers competed in our very own game of Wonderball while the younger campers competed in the classic game of capture the flag. After competing fiercely for their tribes, all of the campers were worn out and ready for a relaxing night.\nAs the sun set over Timberlake, another memorable day of camp was in the books. As always we are thankful for this day and excited for another day of growth through friends and adventure.

Before The Whole Tulip, I had tried many other detoxes and cleanses, but struggled to understand how starving for a week or more was going to make a positive change. There was not even a consideration from my husband that he might participate in one of those past cleanses.\nWhen I tried my first Whole Tulip cleanse, I was relieved to see that the menu included, fresh, seasonal, real food. The recipes were so good that I was able to feed the whole family without them realizing that they were “participating”. Many of these recipes are now in my full time rotation. Give me a Sugar-Free Power Ball anytime and I am happy! My husband is now a willing participant and even looks forward to starting each season with a Whole Tulip reset. Each time, we end up with at least one long-lasting change that makes a huge difference on how we eat and feel. After the first cleanse, we never went back to sodas or coffee creamer and didn’t miss either.\nI always finish a few pounds lighter, but more importantly, I feel great. No more afternoon slumps, no bloat and high energy levels. My husband’s experience has been the most fun to watch. Each time, he suffers through the first few days as his system resets, forgetting how he is going to feel once it does. He accuses us of torturing him with leafy greens, seeds and beets. Then magically and like clockwork, he wakes up on day 4 proclaiming that he feels fantastic. When we get to the end of a cleanse, he’s always ready to keep going. As a guy who loves nothing more than southern fried chicken, he the best testament I know to power of The Whole Tulip.\nHere are some results you can expect with one simple and easy to do program.\n➟Sleep like a baby, without waking up at 3 am.\n➟Realize that grocery shopping and healthy food can actually be fun!!!\nHave you committed to 2016 as your year to become empowered to make changes for you?\nAre you tired of doing program after program and not getting lasting results?\nAre you ready to take 2 weeks and commitment to yourself and life long changes?\nDo you want to be supported by health coaches that have changed their story?\nGet rid of the diet puzzle piece that is not sustainable nor given you the results you were hoping for.

Getting the best welding equipment for your shop means being able to offer consistent, high-quality results to your clients. Unfortunately, buying your very first metal inert gas (MIG) welder can be tricky. You need to take a lot of factors, such as features and capabilities, cost, and power needs, among others, into account.\nYour welder’s power requirements are closely connected to what projects you can use it for. A basic welder runs at 115 V and is ideal for work on thin metals. If you plan to work on thicker metal pieces, you may need a more powerful machine. Keep in mind, however, that such tools do not just cost more; they also consume more power that you’ll eventually have to pay for in utility charges.\nIf you see your shop handling a wide variety of projects, you might want to opt for combination units. These machines can run at 120 V for less demanding projects and 230 V for bigger workpieces.\nWhat type of wire do you need?\nYou can cut back on shielding gas by opting for flux-cored MIG wires. These wires are loaded with flux, which rises to the top of the weld just as the wire melts. This type of cable is ideal if you are trying to save costs as not only does it eliminate the need for shielding gas, but it is also compatible with basic, less expensive welders. Conversely, you will need to remove the flux afterwards, which has the risk of scratching the weld. If you need your welds to appear smooth, flux-cored MIG wires might not be for you. You can also ask your trusted MIG welding wire supplier for recommendations in this area.\nHow long will you be welding?\nDuty cycle is an essential factor when choosing MIG welders. It pertains to the number of minutes you can weld in a given cycle before the welder needs to be rested and allowed to cool down. Duty cycle affects many vital metrics in your shop, including productivity, turnaround time, and weld quality. Unfortunately, specific projects require higher duty cycles, but these could result in overheating and ultimately destroy your welder.\nTo prevent overheating, you can invest in thermal overhead protection. Some welder models have this built in, and their price might show it. Anyhow, this feature will ensure that your welder lasts longer and that it can deliver the results you expect.\nChoosing an MIG welder for your shop is no simple matter, especially if your business has special needs. With that in mind, before you go shopping for a machine, make sure you fully understand what projects you will be setting out to do and what materials you will likely be working with. At the same time, you need to understand the kind of results your clients expect from you and your brand.

The "Collaborating to Change College Substance Use Project" works to 1) Reduce binge drinking and marijuana use among community college students, 2) Create an environment on campus that supports low-risk decision making, and 3) Increase effectiveness and enforcement of existing laws and policies related to binge drinking and marijuana use. To accomplish these goals, the project formed a collaborate group of key stakeholders including faculty, law enforcement, student housing owners, students, and substance abuse prevention experts. This group has worked together over the past three years to raise awareness of substance abuse issues both on and off campus, identify strategies to create a safer college environment for students, provide training on substance abuse interventions, and implement policies to better address the substance abuse that occurs among students.\nThe project has been creative in its methods to capture college students' attention. A variety of strategies have been implemented including t-shirt campaigns, poster campaigns denoting comical but unfortunate social risks of binge drinking, drinking and driving simulators, and articles posted on the back of bathroom stalls.\nEight housing complexes are now referring students to the Prime for Life intervention program. Nine classes have been held since the program began. 100% of students completing the course identified intent to decrease substance use.\nThe collaborative student/faculty group to address substance abuse went from non-existent prior to the start of this project to an active membership of 22. In total, nineteen individuals from Kirkwood and the surrounding community have actively assisted with the implementation of at least one prevention effort in the past year.\n83% of the Kirkwood faculty and housing staff who responded to an email survey stated an increase in substance abuse knowledge as a result in participation in this program.\nPerhaps the most significant outcome for evidence of increased enforcement has been a 350% increase in drug charges and a 31% increase in alcohol related charges within two complexes that house primarily Kirkwood students. These are two of the most actively involved housing complexes in this project, and the increase has been a direct result of the narcotics unit checks initiated through this project.\nAnnual narcotics trainings have been implemented for campus faculty, nearby student housing faculty, local law enforcement, and other community members.\nEight housing complexes have adopted new substance abuse policies since the initiation of this program. As a result, drug-free environment policies can be enforced and students are now getting the help needed to address substance abuse when they are caught violating an alcohol or drug policy in their apartment.\nCollaborating to Change College Substance Use is a successful example of how to engage in prevention efforts with young people through collaboration. The program's focus on substance abuse prevention and helping students engage in more healthy decision making can serve to immunize against delinquency, youth violence, and the damaging effects of teen substance abuse. Negative peer group influence, alcohol and drug use are among the risk factors predictive of gang membership. The Collaborating to Change College Substance Abuse promotes a positive prevention-based approach to addressing the chronic challenge of campus substance abuse.
