This year will mark the 100th birthday of the legendary Frank Sinatra. In honor of this celebration, Capitol in association with Universal Music will be releasing "Ultimate Sinatra!" in a load of different formats. On April 21st, "Ultimate Sinatra!" will be available as a new 25-track single CD, a 26-track digital version, a 24-track 180-gram double-LP and a deluxe 101-track 4CD box set. For the first time, this set includes many of his well-known recordings for Columbia, Capitol and Reprise together in one collection. The deluxe edition also includes an 80-page booklet with rare photos and a brand new essay by Frank Sinatra historian Charles Pignone.
Beginning with Frank Sinatra's first recording session with the Harry James Orchestra in 1939, we start will his innocent rendition of "All Or Nothing At All" as Sinatra's voice sounds so young and fresh. The first disc has a lush feel with the "best of" Sinatra's most tender moments like "Nancy" and "My Funny Valentine." His voice just takes over "Young At Heart" and "All Of Me" that makes you just get lost in his vocal delivery. The general topic of the second disc is Sinatra's greatest love songs including the fun "Love And Marriage" and the revengeful "The Lady Is A Tramp." It's the sweet smoothness of "In The Wee Small Hours" and "Love Is Here To Stay" that will have your significant other just melt in your arms, while "Witchcraft" and "Come Fly With Me" shows off Sinatra's iconic swing that is still unmatched.
The third disc starts off with the mellow "Only The Lonely," but quickly picks up the pace with "Something's Gotta Give" and "High Hopes." His voice is so strong and overwhelming as in "Without A Song" and the casino-themed "Luck Be A Lady." The final disc centers around Sinatra's later-career recordings, beginning with "The Way You Look Tonight" and "My Kind Of Town." Such iconic numbers as "That's Life" and "Theme From New York New York" are simply timeless and could never be duplicated. Also included in the 100-song box set is a previously unreleased song, a rehearsal take from 1979 of Rogers and Hammerstein's "The Surrey With The Fringe On Top," while a nice addition, it does little to entice the rest of the collection.
This box set is the perfect example of why Frank Sinatra was the "Chairman Of The Board." He was always in complete control, whether it was with his voice, his acting or his producing, Sinatra never did anything half-way, it was "All Or Nothing At All." To find out more about the "Ultimate Sinatra!" box set or the other formats, please visit sinatra.com.

The demand for The Royal Children Hospital’s world leading physiotherapy services increases every year and The Royal Children’s Hospital pool is the centrepiece of the Aquatic Physiotherapy program.
Since its opening in 2013 the pool has become a vital part of RCH physiotherapy. By helping children achieve what they can’t do on land, the program is a fun and effective way to provide great care to infants, children and adolescents.
The Royal Children’s Hospital pool is specifically heated to a warmer-than-usual 34 degrees Celsius, which aids recovery through relaxation of muscles, reduction of muscle spasm, increased circulation and pain relief.
It can also facilitate the treatment of children with a limited ability to regulate their own body temperature.
Aquatic Physiotherapy uses the buoyancy of water to assist treatment. Water acts by assisting and resisting movement which helps increase muscle strength and joint movement.
This form of therapy is great for children with everything from sports injuries to chronic conditions like Cerebral Palsy, as it allows them to complete exercises and participate in activities which they aren’t able to do on land.
When designing a pool for clinical use, the health and safety of patients is of the utmost importance. “Unlike many adult hydrotherapy pools, our purpose built facility includes shallow water, a ramp and specific equipment to enable training of running, walking or crawling in young children and infants,” says Emily Ramage, Senior Physiotherapist.
“Seeing a child’s face light up as they master a new skill or regain the ability to walk, hop or run in the pool is a special moment”.
– Emily Ramage, Senior Physiotherapist.

The names of many of our native trees were taken from perceived resemblances of their timbers to those of traditional Northern Hemisphere species like oak, and tropical hardwoods such as mahogany, something for which we can no doubt thank early settlers. On many occasions the common names mean little botanically but reflect species from unrelated plant families or with no close relatives among Australian flora. Let's take a classic example.
Red Cedar Toona ciliata is named after North American Western Red Cedar, or more correctly ‘Redcedar’ Thuja plicata of innumerable window frames and architraves. Our native version isn't even a conifer let alone a member of family Cupressaceae. T. ciliata, surprisingly, is actually in the Mahogany family Meliaceae and of course it's a hardwood.
From here we could move the article on to the various trees Australians call mahogany, with many examples, but what about our various ‘oaks’ such as Tasmanian ‘Tassie’ Oak, Silky Oak, Northern Silky Oak and the various ‘sheoaks’ ‘she oaks’ and ‘bull oaks’.
The term ‘Tassie oak’ generally embraces three species of Eucalyptus – E. regnans, E. obliqua and E. delegatensis all of which have hard, light coloured timbers in shades within oak's range, though they rarely show the classic feature of true Northern Hemisphere oak of the genus Quercus – that of medullary rays.
If you are unsure what a medullary ray is have a look at any oak furniture you may have. Or failing that, next time you are on a bushwalk and a Black Sheoak or Forest Oak has been blown down across a trail (a common event) and sawn up, look closely at the cut ends. The picture below is of just such a tree and you can clearly see striking, curvilinear radial streaks that cut across the concentric growth ring pattern. For the living tree these carried out a function of conducting water across the grain, but they also mature to an attractive and sought after feature of polished timber in cabinet making and wood turning.
As well as in members of family Casuarinaceae, medullary rays are typically also found in Proteaceae species, notably of course Silky Oak Grevillea robusta and Northern Silky Oak Cardwellia sublimis. We are perhaps lucky that the numerous beautiful plants of this family do not generally grow to timber size except to provide an occasional rare source for specialist ornate inlays and veneers.
You may own items of true oak furniture, or you may visit a pub, restaurant or antique shop or watch Antiques Roadshow, featuring traditional-style oak furniture, and see the rays expressed as graceful, wavy, lenticular patterns. But our very own silky oaks and sheoaks show these beautifully and have also been widely used historically, turning up in such settings as traditional church pews and well-crafted furniture and inlays. And although darker than real oak, you'll spot them immediately from their medullary flecks and patterns.

How to make nougat recipe, thanks to some scientific principles and cooking tips that will afford us a lot of satisfaction: a Christmas treat you can't miss!
Christmas time is always accompanied by delicious sweets. Of these, one of the most popular is nougat, Italian torrone, a sweet and deceivingly simple treat: behind the few ingredients it contains, lies an ancient recipe that lends itself to countless variations and carefully guarded secrets. Yet, as we shall soon see, this is science placed at the service of the palate.
The origin of nougat is somewhat nebulous even though there are two theories which are considered to be equally valid. Some claim that it comes from the Middle East, while others believe it dates back to Roman times. In the latter case, it would seem to have appeared during the second war between the Samnites and the Roman Republic, towards 326 B.C. The Romans, in fact, overcome by the Samnites, were taken prisoner, to demonstrate the supremacy of the victors. So, the Roman soldiers decided to starve themselves to death but were made to desist by their jailors who offered them this sweet delicacy. The prisoners were unable to resist. Hence, it was given the name of cupedia, “thing of desire”: this was the earliest form of nougat.
Today, nougat is recognized as being a close relative of marshmallows, soft sweets and marzipan: like them, it contains a considerable amount of sugar, to which syrup and eggs are added. Then there is space for an endless variety of flavourings and variations: honey, walnuts, almonds, peanuts, chocolate and whatever else you fancy. Christmas time, however, is the season in which all traditions come to the fore so, today, along with the recipe for traditional nougat we are also going to learn some scientific principles that will afford us a lot of satisfaction. With regard to the ingredients, you will need three teacups of sugar, one cup of honey, 4 egg whites, one cup of well roasted almonds and half a cup of icing sugar. Finally, some sheets of rice paper for the base.
Now that we are ready to make our nougat, let’s start from a curious assumption: the really scientific aspect of this sweet lies in the egg it contains, not the sugar. In actual fact, nougat is a “reinforced” version of meringue, in which the egg white proteins give us this unusual consistency. The preparation of nougat, therefore, takes place in two phases. First of all, we heat the honey and sugar in a bowl placed in water (bain-marie) until the latter is completely dissolved. While the sugar is melting, we can get on with beating the egg whites until they are stiff, before gently adding the icing sugar.
Have you done? Well, now let’s wait for the sugar mixture to reach a temperature of 158°C, remove from the heat and let it fall to 145 °C (a couple of minutes will do the trick) and, at this point, we can pour it slowly onto the beaten egg whites, while stirring gently. Better still, if we use a food processor set at a low speed. The mixture will change colour and start to thicken as the sugar gradually cools. After three or four minutes, we have to add the almonds and stir for the last time before pouring the mixture into one or more moulds, whose inner surface has been previously greased with butter. Then, we cover the mixture with rice paper, wrap in cellophane and leave to rest for one day at room temperature. Finally, the nougat may be removed from the mould.
Now that we are familiar with the perfect nougat recipe, here are a few tips. First of all, the egg whites should be at room temperature to facilitate the action of the egg proteins. It is preferable to choose a good quality sugar, which may also be used to produce the icing sugar with the aid of a food processor set at high speed. By the way: when stirring our mixture, whether manually or in a processor, we must take care to do it VERY gently. And we must closely follow the temperatures indicated in the recipe, with the help of a kitchen thermometer: science requires precision and cooking, as we know perfectly well, is pure science. A sweet, very sweet science, in this case. Happy Christmas!

Lots of fun pieces and of course one of my fave companies – Doodlebug!
I didn’t use up every last piece, I still have a few of the die cuts left from DB and 1 Canoe 2 as well as the vellum sheet from DB and the one from American Crafts…I don’t use a lot of vellum so I need to figure out how to incorporate that!
My first project is actually a layout using the 1 Canoe 2 I’ve not used their product before but I found it quite pretty. I wanted to challenge myself to use it on a more masculine layout and I think it went pretty good!..it’s quite easy to incorporate these pieces into your layouts as well as for cards or tags!
The DP and the bigger wood pieces are from 1C2 but the small wood veneer, the heart & dot enamels are just from my stash.
I also got a couple of simple cards as well.
I used the DP and die cuts from the sampler but I added my own bling and twine.
That takes care of the 2018 February sampler and I’m excited for the 2019 one which should be arriving next week! Can’t wait to see what is in it.
If you are interested in getting your own sampler, be sure to check out the details on the Scrapbook & Cards Today website.

At the beginning of Jun the EGLSF board made a very important trip to the host city of next years EuroGames, Helsinki! During the short stay we visited the city hall and met with the Deputy Lord Mayor Mrs. Ritva Viljanen, The Chief of Sport Mr Anssi Rauramo, and the EuroGames 2016 host club HOT ry, Juha Meronen and Erika Patrikainen. On Friday morning the 5th of June we went to the city chambers where a morning meeting was held. The main purpose of the meeting was to share all the relevant information needed when a city hosts a EuroGames.
After a formal welcome from Mrs Ritva Viljanen, the board and the committee were told how much the city of Helsinki was willing to support such an event. Juha and Erika then presented the winning bid presentation and after answered some questions from the floor. Mrs Viljanen then presented Klaus Heusslein with a cultural book on the city of Helsinki and of Finland. The rest of the afternoon was spend traveling around to some of the venues at which the games will take place. We also visited the central area where the athletes village will be erected.
And finally, there was some great excitement as the registration for the EuroGames 2016 officially opened! Early bird discount is available and don't forget that each EGLSF member receives discount when registering!
The board would like to extend their gratitude to everyone who looked after us during our stay and especially to Mrs Viljanen, Mr Rauramo, Juha and Erika!

U.S. information breaches involving third parties, or business associates, doubled in the first half of the year, says Karen Barney of the Identity Theft Resource Center, a consumer advocacy group that tracks security incidents.
"The ITRC believes greater efforts need to be made in identifying weaknesses in the chain of information," Barney stresses in an interview with Information Security Media Group's Howard Anderson [transcript below].
Based on its tracking of news media reports, attorneys general announcements and other releases of information, the resource center estimates breaches declined 9 percent in all U.S. sectors during the first half of this year, compared to the same period a year ago. "Whether this represents an actual decrease in the number of breach incidents or just a decrease in reporting is impossible to determine," Barney says.
The consumer advocacy group tracks breaches in the business, education, government/military, healthcare/medical and banking/financial sectors.
To prevent information breaches, organizations in all business sectors must go far beyond installing the right technologies and build a corporate culture that emphasizes privacy protection, Barney says.
"Recognize that IT and network security alone will not protect your data," she says. "Create an organizational ethic where the employees do realize the importance of protecting personal information."
Incidents in the healthcare sector rose in the first six months of the year, while breaches in the financial sector declined.
Breaches triggered by insider threats dropped in the first half. "One possible reason for this decline may be the increased awareness that employees do pose a potential threat, and as a result, [organizations] are increasing efforts to improve security protocols for protecting information..." she says.
Organizations experiencing a data breach often fail to explain the cause of the incident.
Barney, a victim of identity theft, has served in a variety of positions for the Identity Theft Resource center since joining in 2002. In her current role as the center's program director and research analyst, she provides and disseminates information about the center and its data.
HOWARD ANDERSON: For starters, why don't you describe the Identity Theft Resource Center for us?
KAREN BARNEY: The Identity Theft Resource Center was established in 1999 initially to support victims of identity theft in resolving their cases. It grew to include broadening public education and awareness efforts through the website to help consumers understand identity theft and related issues. In addition to those services, the ITRC also works with other groups and agencies on a wide variety of other initiatives to educate the public and reduce individual risks. Since 2005, the Identity Theft Resource Center has also tracked security breaches in order to look for patterns, new trends and any information that may better help us to protect data and assist companies in developing best practices.
ANDERSON: How does the center gather its statistics on data breaches? Do you track breaches of a certain size or scope, and in what sector do you track breaches in the U.S.?
BARNEY: We track information that's available at attorneys general offices. That usually enables us to see a breach notification letter that may have been sent out in regards to a breach. We look at a [large] number of media outlets to see what, when and where any of these breaches may be occurring, and we also share information with other entities that post this kind of information as well. As to the size or scope of breaches, we don't necessarily have a hard number as far as [how] small in size we begin including on our list. And of course it goes up to the millions on those larger breaches.
We just stick to the facts as they're reported. We don't editorialize on any of that information. Many times the breaches on our list will have multiple attributions from media sources and media outlets. We try to capture as many of those as we can to support the breach incident. We try to identify the number of exposed records when that's available. Sometimes the information [breached] may be encrypted, but we also state that we do not consider that adequate protection for information.
We also include breaches on our list that do not include personal identifying information. A lot of breaches nowadays, which include passwords, user names and e-mail addresses, [are included] in our overall breach count, but we do not include the number of records even if it's known since they do not trigger breach notification laws throughout the country. We focus primarily on those that include Social Security numbers, credit/debit card numbers, financial account numbers, driver's licenses, those pieces of information that trigger breach notification in our total count. We update [our tally] every day and post once a week, and we cover five industry sectors - business, education, government/military, health and medical, and the banking/credit/financial sector.
ANDERSON: You've issued a new report that shows there were 213 breaches in the first six months of this year in the U.S. in all of the sectors that you track. How does that number compare with the first half of last year?
BARNEY: The number of breaches is down this year. We had 213 for the first half, which is a 9 percent decrease from the 231 that were reported in the first half of 2011. Whether or not this represents an actual decrease in the number of breach incidents or just a decrease in reporting isn't possible to determine.
ANDERSON: Your report states that a majority of organizations experiencing breaches are sharing very little information about the incidents. Please explain that finding. What's the reason for that lack of transparency?
BARNEY: Good question - and one I wish I had a better answer for. The ITRC does attempt to identify the cause of a breach based on the information that's made public. The ITRC has tracked five possible causes since 2005 - data on the move, accidental exposure, insider theft, subcontractors and hacking. In 2012, we added employee error and negligence, since this is recognized industry-wide as a potential area of threat for businesses. And so far this year, for 63.4 percent of the breaches, the breach notification material has not identified attributes that the Identity Theft Resource Center could capture as to the cause of the data breach incidents. I don't doubt that the potential loss of customers, reputation and brand image come into play when deciding whether or not a business is going to be transparent in the case of a data breach incident. Several studies have shown interesting findings regarding consumer reactions to companies that have experienced a data breach incident, and unfortunately not the least of which is leaving that company [as a client]. One recent Ponemon survey did indicate that more customers are remaining loyal after a breach, which should encourage businesses to overcome a trepidation that they might have in reporting a breach.
It's of interest to the ITRC that many data breach incidents which expose the non-sensitive personal information, such as passwords and PIN numbers, are reported in the media even though current breach notification laws do not mandate that they do so. So businesses should recognize the potential for harm posed by this type of information especially in light of the current survey that reflected 92 percent of the respondents indicated that lost or stolen passwords or PIN numbers was the number one cause for worry. So the ITRC definitely calls for greater transparency in order to enable consumers to take whatever proactive steps are necessary to protect them.
ANDERSON: Let's go over some of the other key findings from the report for the first half of this year. Breaches involving third parties, such as business associates, doubled in the first half of this year vs. last year. What do you think is the reason for that growth, and what can be done to address that problem?
BARNEY: One primary reason is most likely the vetting of the third-party security protocols and practices, which is combined with the fact that there's more than likely an increased amount of work being outsourced and there needs to be adequate verification of that [contractor's ability] to protect the information. The ITRC believes that greater efforts need to be made in identifying weaknesses in the chain of information.
ANDERSON: Breaches in the healthcare sector represented about 27 percent of the incidents you identified in the first half of this year, and that's up from 17 percent in the first half of last year. Why do you think that is the case? Is it because more organizations are complying with the requirements of the HIPAA breach notification rule perhaps?
BARNEY: It's very likely that the mandatory reporting has played a role in the increased number of data breach incidents in the healthcare industry. They're also much better at reporting the number of records that have been compromised. It may also be due to the fact that medical identification numbers are significantly more valuable than Social Security numbers and, as such, they're much more desirable targets to hackers and those who would profit from that information, and we can go ahead and say insiders, hackers and organized crime fit that bill. So while insider theft incidents in the medical industry are down slightly in the first half, these insider thefts are still most prevalent in the healthcare industry as compared to the other sectors.
ANDERSON: In contrast, breaches in the banking industry are on the decline. Please share those statistics and explain why you think incidents are down in this sector?
BARNEY: It's a good sign for the financial industry that the number of reported incidents has dropped significantly so far this year. To date this year, only nine breaches have been reported on the ITRC breach list, which is down from the 19 reported for the first half of 2011. The ITRC has always recognized that the financial industry has consistently demonstrated better data protection efforts because they must comply with requirements and regulations to ensure that they protect consumer financial information, security and confidentiality of customer information is also mandated, and they also face multiple ongoing audits for security and confidentiality.
ANDERSON: Insider threats are on the decline, the report shows. Please define insider threat, share the statistics and offer your insights on why these incidents are declining.
BARNEY: The ITRC identifies insider employee theft as when someone inside the company participates - or assists someone - in stealing records and information. We typically categorize it as malicious for the purposes of the ITRC breach report, as it's often combined with hacking. It should not be considered the same as negligent or accidental breaches. So far in 2012, only 7.5 percent of the reported data breach incidents have been identified as involving insider threats, down from the 17.3 percent reported for the same time period last year. This decrease was also reflected in the recent Verizon security report.
One possible reason for this decline may be the increased awareness that employees and insiders do pose a potential threat, and as such, businesses are increasing their efforts to improve their security protocols for protecting information. [There's] better tracking and auditing practices to more clearly identify these internal risks. [Organizations] are developing an implementation of protocols and policies addressing these perceived risk factors, the enforcement of these protocols and practices, addressing the need for stricter password and account management practices, implementing a more secure physical environment for how that information is maintained, corporate-wide advanced training for all to understand the possible complications of breached information, and, not least of all, anticipation and preparation for that next threat.
To wrap up, based on your analysis for the first half of this year, what would you say are the most important steps organizations in all sectors can take to help prevent breaches?
BARNEY: I truly believe that preventing breaches is going to be difficult, but some steps that businesses can take to minimize their risks is to know what your current status is - conduct a risk assessment and determine those areas which need the greatest level of security and heightened measures of protection. Recognize that IT and network security alone will not protect your data. ... Create an organizational ethic where the employees do realize the importance of protecting personal information. Have them own that. And implement best practices in the way information is handled through authentication and verification, high levels of protecting it and limiting the access to personal information by employees on a need-to-know basis. ... [Also, address] proper disposal of sensitive documents, physical security measures, how information is stored and the disposal of that information once the business is done using it.

As the number of pet owners increases the purchases of pet products will increase. As the disposable income of pet owners increases, the purchases of pet products will increase. At some point these conditions will plateau but, in the short term, sales of pet products will increase.
Will 5G bring the tech benefits that consumers and marketers expect?
The main benefits of 5G have not been created - those enhanced consumer experiences. The tangible benefit now is faster speed. Those who are downloading a lot of material are excited about that benefit. Without other tangible benefits those who do not download or stream a lot may not see additional speed as something to be excited about.
Since so many of Walmart’s consumers have children, the market for the product would be there. Since so many of the families shopping at Walmart are on a budget, the price of the new tablet will need to be very low to entice these shoppers to purchase. Do these shoppers want their children spending time on a tablet? If yes, there is a market. If no, then the sales will be very low.
If the consumers are going to have a variety of responsibilities, such as cleaning up spills, processing refunds, or cart runs so that they may not even be in position at the front of the store, why not keep a greeter and at least one consumer host. There may be a need for more than one consumers since there are long lines at customer service for returns at time. Why is there a need to eliminate the greeters?
Large CPG brands have the advantage of name recognition with consumers, established relationships with channel members, and money for research. However, established processes also can limit new approaches to research, consumer understanding, integration of new technology, and speed. Companies need to find a way to balance innovation and sound management. J&J’s approach appears to focus on several areas of innovation such as product development, marketing, packaging or work processes. This is a lot of innovation affecting many parts of the company to manage. As such, it is an interesting approach to watch.
Does new retail need a new prototype?
Are the modules just a set of categories designed for small, medium, and large stores or are the modules uniques to each store? If they are the same groups of categories, the problem is not addressed. Where is the module that is unique to a specific store? The time has come for innovation that can accommodate different geographies, consumer tastes, and experiences. Modules of the same products is not flexible enough. A contest to see which retailer can come up with the most creative approach is intriguing.
What does innovation mean to retailers and brands?
Not many retailers have someone (or a team of people) assigned to monitor retail changes across the globe, changing consumer tastes, and changing marketplace conditions. As a result, retailers often respond to changes after they occur and, with long lead times, appear to be following changes rather than moving with them. While changes in this environment may be innovative for the retailer, they are not perceived as innovative to consumers. Constant experimentation and quick changes with the marketplace are required for a retailer or brand to be considered innovative.
Changing the format of some stores, observing results, and making changes in more similar stores is a sound approach to expansion. The caveat is that if and when changes are made to stores in markets that are not similar or with different consumers, the rollout is unpredictable because results do not transfer when stores are different. In that case, it is just continued experimentation.
What will it take to make department stores relevant again?
Being nimble, experimenting, and constantly changing are requirements for today’s marketplace. There is no one formula for success. There is no formula that will work for a long time. With experimentation that occurs often and quickly, retailers can identify changing consumer trends, different geographic preferences, technology use, and respond accordingly. Creating pop-up stores to do this is relatively easy. For success across established stores, purchasing, logistics, and marketing departments need to be nimble and adaptable to capitalize and adapt to changes.
This is a great example of the fragmented consumer market. Of course Santa Claus can have different personas - Santa already has lots of variations around the world. Now Santa may vary based upon consumer groups with different world views -- bikers, hipsters, traditionalists! etc. -- this is beginning to sound like a marketing research project report. With different Santas appealing to different consumer groups, brands can pick and choose which Santa appeals to which target segment and we continue to be more divided.
Should the Marlboro Man be vaping?
I find this effort confusing. If nicotine is the addicting and dangerous substance, how does eliminating tobacco solve the problem when the alternative uses nicotine? Changing the delivery system does not eliminate the problem. Altria is changing the delivery system but is selling the same product -- addiction to nicotine. The efforts to control or limit the new delivery system are ramping up. How has Altria changed their position from the old Philip Morris position of selling nicotine?
Amazon Prime offers a variety of benefits and different benefits have priority for individual customers. In addition, delivery from third parties is not under the same control as delivery from Amazon warehouses. Given the number of people using Prime, the number of items that can be purchased, and the variety of customer locations, logistics is a complicated issue. All of this means Amazon has an increasingly difficult time keeping its promise and customers care about the promise not the difficulties Amazon faces. As with any company, growth creates a challenge in terms of living up to its promises. For a company built on the premise of meeting customer needs this is a significant issue for them to resolve.
This is an interesting way of integrating new technology, offering a unique experience, exposing consumers to new technology, and increasing in-store traffic for Joann. For Glowforge the partnership provides more exposure for their technology. Great idea.
The Cost Plus ad was a cute story with a clever twist with the boy’s solution of a cookie jar. However, there was no real link with Cost Plus and I agree with Anne about the mom being uninvolved and unfeeling about the concern. The Meijier ad was cute but generic until the end. Santa’s footsteps, and the tag line “believe, we’ve got you covered for everything else” was a clever reason for shopping at Meijer. So my vote goes to Meijer.
Why are holiday gift returns spiking before Christmas this year?
There are several reasons for increased and earlier returns: difficulty in determining colors because of the differences in monitors, difficulty determining sizes because of the inability to try things on, earlier sales before Black Friday, a longer sales period over the Thanksgiving period, and people opening gifts when they receive them rather than waiting Christmas. For all these reasons consumers prefer shopping with retailers that have easy return policies. Because online shopping is increasing, returns will also increase. Increased online shopping, consumer expectations, and increased shipping prices all put pressure on retailers in the area of inventory management, quick shipping, and costs. Balancing the contradictions continues to provide a challenge for manufacturers and retailers.

Sure, you have a fancy iPhone X or Pixel 2 that can take amazing photographs and handle even the most graphics-heavy games. But does it have holograms?
AT&T and Verizon announced this week they will start selling a holographic smartphone later this year. The Red Hydrogen One smartphone is the first phone from video equipment company Red.
The Android phone’s killer feature is a “holographic display” that projects 3D images that can be viewed without special glasses. You will be able to view the images from the sides and behind, and interact with them using special hand gestures. It will also include cameras for capturing the custom 3D images.
Manufacturers continue to add new features — from waterproofing to animated poop emojis — to tempt people into upgrading their device. It’s unclear if a display that projects images into the air above the phone is just a flashy gimmick or if it will have some practical applications.
The phone will be available later this year, as early as the end of the summer, according to AT&T.Neither carrier announced a price for the phone, but during pre-orders, the price range from $1,295 for an aluminum model to $1,595 for a titanium-based option.
The device was originally expected to launch in early 2018, but that date has been pushed back. The company is planning a public demo of the deviceat an event in Los Angeles on May 18.

It probably helps to know that in the larger spectrum of time, whatever impression people have of you have little to do with the first impression you gave. That’s because first impressions typically last as long as it takes for you to form a second impression, after which the person’s impression of you becomes a weighted average of the first two impressions. Add ten, to a hundred, to a thousand interactions to the mix, and you can easily see why first impressions aren’t as important as what one might think.
For example, I think well of many of my good friends today not because they left a stunning first impression. Contrary to that, some of them actually turned me off when we first met–I felt they were distant, even snobbish. Yet, my opinion changed for the better during our subsequent interactions. Our commonality in values drew us closer together over time and the rest is history.
On the other hand, I’ve met people who gave me a great first impression; however I was later disappointed by their character flaws like anger issues and dishonesty. I never stay in touch with them there after because these aren’t people I want to have in my life.
In work, I’ve had imperfect trainings before. My latest class on emotional eating had an unprecedented software hiccup which set the class back by 15 minutes (I then extended the class by 30 minutes to finish covering the material). While new participants might have gotten a bad first impression in the first 15 minutes, subsequent occurrences such as seeing the strong quality of the content in the two-hour class, my readiness to stay back to cover all material and answer participant questions, and strong endorsements by the regulars, probably helped to allay concerns.
On the same note, while most of us may freak out about meeting people for the first time and worry about the impression we are going to make, the thing is most people actually don’t care, at least not to the extent we think they would. Let’s say if you make a bad joke during your first meeting with X. Perhaps X gets offended and thinks you are strange. But he/she is not going to think about this for the 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 day, or 1 week after that, because it’s not a significant thing in his/her life. He/she is going to brush it away, then get right back to what he/she was doing before he/she met you. In the end, the only person obsessing about your first impression is you, when others don’t even care at all.
That said, it doesn’t mean you should not care about making good first impressions. Ultimately you want to put your best foot forward when meeting people for the first time (or other times), because it’s about being respectful to them for their time. This is especially so in romantic dates, business meetings, and public speaking. I’ve been abhorred by terrible first dates; business meetings where the attendee turns up late, frazzled, and unprepared (I’ve to admit that I used to be guilty of this); even email pitches where the person obviously sent me a template without bothering to customize his/her pitch and get facts right (such as referring to me as a “Mr.”).
For these people, I don’t write them off, but I also don’t pay special attention to them unless future encounters prove otherwise.
So how do we make a good first impression, especially when we don’t have the luxury of time?
Ever heard of the elevator pitch? It is a business concept which refers to a short summary used to quickly define a person, profession, product, service, organization or event and its value proposition. The name “elevator pitch” reflects the idea that it should be possible to deliver the summary in the time span of an elevator ride, which is approximately 30 seconds.
When making new friends in non-business settings, there’s no need to go full-on with some snazzy pitch; people will probably think you are crazy. Rather, borrow the idea of the elevator pitch, which is to showcase defining things about you in your first 30 seconds of introduction.
What are your top accomplishments which you are most proud of? What pet project are you currently working on? What are you most passionate about? What defines you? There are no hard and fast answers, but things you may want to highlight are successfully completing your PhD, recently quitting your job to pursue your passion, clinching a guest writing stint with a high profile news publisher, working in a prestigious company, raising a family of three kids, publishing your first book, traveling for the last three-and-a-half-months, and so on.
The point here isn’t to rattle about how awesome you are, but to share key things about yourself which you are proud of, which will give people a taste of how you are like as a person.
Now, your simple 30-second introduction has already perked others’ ears without any effort on your end. Blogger? Full time? How? Travel blog? What URL? What countries has he covered before? So he earns money travel blogging? How does he do that?? These are probably just some questions flashing through the person’s mind in that half minute you were speaking.
Watch out: Don’t go overzealous though and go on a 10-minute spiel talking about how awesome you are and why you are the king/queen of the world; that’s probably going to turn people off. Talk about the key things you are proud of which defines who you are, then use them as fodder to jump-start your connection.
Second step is to adhere to the 50–50 rule I shared before in 10 Rules of a Great Conversationalist. Ensure each of you take turns to speak, and that each sharing balances out the other’s. It’s okay if the other person is talking a little more or if you are talking a little more depending on the topic; the point is to ensure talk time is distributed between both of you. If you are with three or more people, then involve everyone in the chat where possible.
Also, by allowing people to share, you put them in the spotlight and allow them to shine. Most people talk too much and don’t let others take the stage–you don’t want to do that. Engaging people on a 50–50 level will certainly boost others’ impression of you because you are taking an interest in them where most don’t–and that highlights your kindness and sensitivity.
On the other hand, don’t go overboard and expect the person to share 100% of the time! That would simply be an interrogation! Besides getting to know the other person, you want him/her to know you too, and you can only do so by sharing as well. Take the stage with the person and he/she will realize that you are there to make a real connection.
Last but not least, find ways to be of service to others. Say this person is interested to write a book. Do you have any knowledge on book writing or publishing? Do you know any friends in publishing? Know anyone who just released a book? How about anyone who is currently writing a book? Offer your best knowledge, then point the person in the right direction.
One of my good friends today, Karl, struck me with a great first impression during our first correspondences up to the day we met. I was in New York City (by myself) back in 2011, and knowing that he was in New York too, I reached out to say hi. Karl was just a business acquaintance then–we had only connected via email when I did the Groupon Singapore interview on my blog; I was half expecting a non-response when I reached out.
To my surprise, he graciously followed up and even invited me to join him, his wife, and his friends for dinner that weekend. He invited me for brunch with his friend the next day and showed me around New York City that afternoon and evening, even though he didn’t have to. We subsequently met up again, kept in touch and became good friends.
What struck me about Karl then was his kindness; he didn’t have to show me around NYC or connect me with his friends but he did. Because of that, he left a striking impression which made feel that this friendship is worth pursuing and building.
So ask yourself, how can you be of service to others? Is there anything you can be of help to this person? What is this person working on now which you can assist him/her with? Is there anyone knowledgeable in the field whom you can connect him/her with?
You don’t have to offer help only when people ask for it; most people never ask for help because they are independent and nice that way. Extend a helping hand even if the person doesn’t need it, and you may find a new connection waiting to be fostered.
These are three simple steps you can do even in encounters as short as 15 minutes. Pitch yourself, do a 50–50 sharing, and offer help where possible. You will definitely leave a lasting impression in many’s minds if you execute the steps right.
At the end of the day though, remember not to over-worry about others’ impressions of you. Rather, live your life based on how you can convey your values through your actions. Doing that will automatically lead to you making a good first impression in front of others, not the other way round.

Industry insiders share their retention recommendations.
Images provided by FBDC members.
It's hard to find good salespeople -- and it's even more difficult to keep them around. According to a CSO Insights report, the average annual turnover for sales teams is nearly 17%, which is an incredibly expensive hit when you think about the time and resources required to find, onboard and train replacements.
If you want to reduce turnover rates on your sales team, you need to give your people a reason to stay. Below, eight members of Forbes Business Development Council offer their advice for retaining your best sales reps.

Another system based on the E8500 chip, Eclipse’s Elite i85n98GTX seems somewhat lacking in specification.
Another system based on the E8500 chip, Eclipse’s Elite i85n98GTX seems somewhat lacking in specification: both RAM allocation (2GB) and hard-drive capacity (320GB) are on the low side. We’d also hoped for a better WorldBench 6 score than 117 points, bearing in mind the Arbico Elite 8070EX’s spectacular showing, while the 19in monitor is a noticeable step down from rival PCs’ offerings.
Fire up a demanding game such as Crysis, however, and the Eclipse Elite i85n98GTX redeems itself. With a GeForce 9800 GTX under the hood, it remains playable at high-quality settings right up to its display’s native resolution.
The ASRock 4Core1600Twins-P35 motherboard is unique in this month’s tests for its flexible memory support. With six slots, it can support four DDR2 modules or a pair of DDR3 modules for high-performance, if expensive, upgrades. It also supports ATI CrossFire, although you won’t be able to use this with the nVidia graphics card supplied with the Eclipse Elite i85n98GTX.
The Eclipse Elite i85n98GTX has no plug-in sound card. The silver lining to this cloud, however, is that the full complement of PCI Express and PCI slots are available for expansion cards, powered by the ample 775W EZcool PSU.

There are several reasons for a slow loading webpage. Although running a website speed test can be a starting point to see how well your server is working, you’ll still need to investigate more thoroughly. Listed below are some reasons for slow loading occurring on a webpage and remedies to help fix that.
A common cause for slow website loading is images that are not optimized. Images on a website that are not cropped or are put on a website in full-size can cause slow loading. If there are a great amount of uncropped and full-sized photos this can decrease fast website performance. Crop and optimize your images to avoid slow loading websites.
Another common cause for slow website loading is websites that generate information that comes from a database. Data from a database tends to be much slower in performance compared to a HTML website server. This may not be a huge concern on low-traffic sites, but if your site gets a lot of traffic that can really have a negative impact on your visitor experience. To avoid dynamic scripts from slowing down the loading process try caching. Caching allows data storage and easier access to files. This will increase the loading speed of a website rather than slow it down.
Having flash on a website can be very appealing and a great tool for enhancing animation. However, having too much flash can be another reason why a website page is slowly loading. To avoid having a website load slowly because of too much flash optimize the size of your flash files before uploading. If it is possible have external storage for your data.
External media is another common cause for slow loading website pages. External media that is put onto a webpage will only load as fast as its source. If the website that the external media comes from is having a slow day loading then the media used on the webpage will load slowly. In order to avoid external media being a cause for a slow loading webpage try to have media that is hosted from your own server.

Imagine coming home to your rental apartment to find a big foreclosure sign on the building. It's scary and it's happened to millions of renters, many of whom have been evicted during this crisis. However, what many don't realize is there are strong protections that can keep tenants in their homes long after the landlord is gone.
Joe Peay and Gretchen Zimmerman rent in San Francisco and the view is one of the main reasons they love this place.
"I love the view, I love where it is, I love that it's on Twin Peaks Hill," says Peay.
They also love the full kitchen, the built-in office, and the big airy living room. There's just one problem -- the bank just foreclosed on their place.
"When I got home, there was just a big sign on the house. I was like, 'OK what's that going to mean for us next?'" says Peay.
Peay and Zimmerman were worried the foreclosure could mean their one-year lease was no good and they were headed for eviction. However it turns out, tenants in foreclosures are in a much better position now than they may realize.
"The law is a little bit more, shall we say, a little kinder to tenants than it used to be," says former Superior Court judge and JAMS attorney and mediator David Garcia.
Garcia wrote a book on landlord and tenants rights and points to a federal law passed during the height of the foreclosure crisis, protecting tenants from sudden eviction.
"It's one thing for the owners of the property to be displaced, who are the ones defaulting on the loans. It's another thing for the people who are innocent, shall we say, who have bona fide rental agreements," says Garcia.
The federal act says tenants must receive 90 days notice before eviction. Also, tenants can stay in their homes at least until the end of their leases, unless a new owner wants to move in.
In cities with rent controls, like San Francisco, there are even more protections.
"Most tenants of course are pretty scared. They think they have to move and that it is a bank that owns my building now. So far, too many tenants unnecessarily have moved out," says Ted Gullicksen of the San Francisco Tenants Union..
Gullicksen says many renters are unaware their rights were actually strengthened because of the foreclosure crisis.
In addition to the federal act, San Francisco passed a new law saying banks that have foreclosed on a residential building cannot evict the tenants who continue paying rent. Even if the building is sold, the news owners must abide by the city's tough rent control laws.
In most cases, new owners may only evict if they intend to move into a particular unit or if the tenant breaches the rental agreement.
Which brings us back to Peay and Zimmerman, they have a one-year lease and the unit is rent controlled. So, it would take a lot to evict them. Even so, they had a very close call, because they had no idea who should receive the rent payment after foreclosure.
"Further notice came in the form of a courier ringing our doorbell last Thursday," says Peay.
It was a three-day notice from the bank. Pay rent or get out. Joe paid by overnight mail right away.
"Hopefully, we're in good shape. It's always a little scary, too," says Peay.
/" Many cities including Berkeley, Oakland and East Palo Alto, have their own rent control laws that can protect tenants from sudden eviction.

The news from the field was mixed - some marinas doing better, some worse - in an Association of Marina Industries survey of 124 marina professionals.
"Not everyone is on the way down. Some are on the way up," association president Jim Frye said as he and Kirby Scheimann, an International Marina Institute instructor, released the survey results Jan. 28 at the International Marina and Boatyard Conference in Fort Lauderdale.
The survey's purpose was to take a look at changes that marinas have made during the recession, understand the economic climate better and provide a baseline of information about marinas.
Frye says a little more than 40 percent of respondents reported an increase in revenue from wet slip storage from 2009 to 2010. The rest reported a decrease, and 48 percent say they saw an increase in drystack revenue, while 52 percent saw a decline. The percentage of respondents reporting increases in other revenue streams was: 55 percent for winter storage; 42 percent for service and repair; 50 percent for transient slips; 47 percent for ship store; 30 percent for boat dealership; and 60 percent for restaurant.
"People are coming to the marina [to eat]," Scheimann says.
Sixty percent of those surveyed also reported more fuel revenue, although it was unclear whether that was attributable to more fuel pumped, higher prices or both.
A little more than half say they made capital improvements in 2010 (average dollar amount, $381,739). Forty-two respondents increased their capital expenditures 67.5 percent from 2009 to 2010; 21 decreased their expenditures by that percentage.
More than 60 percent invested in staff training in 2010 (average $4,056). More than 50 percent froze salaries; nearly 70 percent reduced travel. A little more than 35 percent laid off employees. More than 60 percent instituted a hiring freeze. A little more than 25 percent let contract employees go or terminated third-party work agreements. Fewer than 20 percent reduced health care contributions or eliminated 401(k) options.
Scheimann says marinas generally held the line on slip rates. Just 28 percent lowered their wet slip rates; fewer than 20 percent lowered their dry slip rates. He says 2 to 3 percent increased slip rates. A little more than 10 percent reduced winter storage rates and about the same percentage reduced service and repair rates. Almost 40 percent offered new-member discounts.
In discussions after the presentation, marina operators in regions where the home foreclosure crisis is most severe said marinas are going into receivership because they've lost business.
Banks that have taken over the management of these marinas are reducing slip rates to boost occupancy and offset their costs, which is putting pressure on other nearby marinas to reduce their rates and putting all marinas under severe financial pressure.
Others reported service business, slip occupancy, and even boat sales starting to trend upward as the Dow Jones Industrial Average topped the 12,000 mark - its highest point since the onset of the recession.
"Business is up," Frye agrees.
He says winter slip contracts in the Southeast - so-called "snowbird" contracts named for retirees who flock south from New England and the Midwest in the winter - seem to be linked to the Dow and the performance of their stocks.

Party games are funny but can break the flow of a party – if they are too long or played too often. Once the mood has dropped, it is hard to rekindle.

It is your day, all the guests have come to Starnberg near Munich to celebrate your birthday. Therefore, you should also be able to have a few drinks at the bar on your special day. The motto is: Don't drink and drive! We are happy to order a taxi for you or offer our shuttle service.
Every successful birthday party needs good food. It might be a good idea to ask about special eating habits or intolerances so all your guests can enjoy our culinary treats.
You want your birthday to be perfect and therefore, want to plan everything yourself? That is understandable. Yet, it might be useful to include a person you trust into the organization. That way, you can enjoy your own party much more.

(a) The newly appointed Personal Humanitarian Envoy of the Secretary-General, former WFP Executive Director Catherine Bertini, travelled to the region to assess the nature and scale of the humanitarian crisis facing the population of the West Bank and Gaza, and to review humanitarian needs in light of recent developments. Heads of UN Agencies in Jerusalem met with Ms. Bertini and her team to brief them on each agencies' activities and Ms. Bertini visited several project sites, including WFP operations.
(b) The curfew regime in the West Bank has now been enforced for a total of seven weeks paralyzing the civilian population and severely hampering the distribution of humanitarian aid and implementation of development projects, such as infrastructure repairs. New checkpoints have hampered the ability of beneficiaries to reach the distribution point.
(c) WFP emergency food assistance is targeting a total of 500,000 people from among the non-refugee population of the West Bank and Gaza. In Gaza, while the target population is already identified by MSA and NGOs partners, WFP Food Monitors are in the process of accessing and assessing areas and communities extremely exposed to acts of war. Such communities are the Bedouin village, where a number of houses where destroyed during recent incursions and farmers in the Khan Younis area whose agricultural fields were damaged by tanks. In addition, beneficiaries of Terre des Hommes are now being regularly monitored in order to assess the causes of malnutrition found among children under five.
(d) The food security of farmers in Gaza is being severely affected by the destruction of infrastructure and the decrease in availability of farming products. Farmers affected by the destruction of infrastructure are being identified for FFW projects. It has been reported that as a result of the significant decrease in retail prices of farming produce, many farmers prefer not to harvest their crops as the costs of labour and transport will not be matched by market prices.
(e) Between 9-15 August, food totalling 89 tons was distributed to 7,665 beneficiaries in Nablus, Qalquilia, Tulkarenm and Jenin. In the Gaza Strip, distributions continue in Gaza city and the northern sector and in the central and southern sector. 3 tons of High Energy Biscuits (HEB) are being delivered to Terre des Hommes for distribution in their special feeding programmes.

A fantastic first day for HORRIBLE SCIENCE. It's wonderful to have an idea about producing a show and 18 months later sit round together in a rehearsal room reading a marvellous new script with a group of great actors and the A-Team creative team.
Actor Benedict Martin is back with us again (James and the Giant Peach, The Dice House, Horrible Histories, The Jungle Book)...with Laura Dalgleish straight from finishing Horrible Histories in Dubai and Gareth Warren (Danny the Champion of the World) stepping off the stage from We're Going On Bear Hunt (not ours!) joining newcomers Sarah Nightingale and Rik Warren.
The production is already looking very exciting indeed!

In politics, I have been told that you pick your battles. But President Trump has a different theory, and he has decided to fight everyone that does not agree with his opinion, and that is a terrible way to start your administration.
There are over 600 administrative positions that must be filled, and staffers who have been hired are having meetings in the dark, because they don’t know how to turn on the lights. There are leaks coming from aides who are questioning if the top staff understands the processes of the White House and/or the federal government.
At this point, Trump’s most significant political setback in his new administration is the 9th Circuit Court ruling against reinstating the president’s travel ban. The unanimous ruling from a three-judge panel means that citizens of seven majority-Muslim countries will be able to continue travel to and from the U.S., despite Trump’s executive order last month.
So, now Trump’s top staff will hold numerous meetings trying to determine how they can circumvent the Circuit Court’s decision and fall further behind in organizing the administration.
Instead of presenting evidence to explain the need for the executive order, Trump’s legal team came to the hearing unprepared. This is significant, because it raises questions about how his other executive orders will be defended in court, as lawyers across the nation begin to file lawsuits.
An environment of chaos is not new for Trump, and he appears to thrive on disorder. During the campaign, then- Republican presidential candidate promised that he would drain the swamp and now people are watching it happen every day.
Trump, the reality TV star, loves confusion, and believes chaos produces the sort of results he likes.
Then National Security Advisor Michael Flynn was forced to resign after it was reported that he had contact with Russian officials after the election. Trump’s Labor Secretary pick Andrew Puzder withdrew from consideration for the post amidst decades-old domestic abuse claims, which his wife later recanted, and shortage of support among Republican senators.
The West Wing is basically empty, and there are small cracks of disappointment and disapproval with the dysfunction of the administration. As the aides support different factions in the administration, someone from the senior staff will become the most powerful.
Many think that Stephen Bannon, Trump’s senior advisor, is the architect of many of the executive orders and the top staff person in the Trump Administration with all the power.
Bannon’s appointment to the National Security Council has upset America, because now he has unlimited power. With Bannon on the National Security Council, he has a political platform for hateful ideologies instead of the council making critical decisions based upon facts from experts on the ground. Things are a mess, and nearly a month into this presidency, very little has actually been accomplished.
There are still hundreds of jobs to be filled and very few bills have been passed by Congress and sent to the White House. Most con men give the impression that they are rolling, but in this administration, when you roll back the fluff, there is no substance and no one knows what they are doing.

If you have 21 games in last year in this league, than you will use that as your entering average.
If you do not, then Adults will use your last 2 years composite average minus 25. Youth Bowlers or 1st year Adults with a Youth Average will use their highest Average the last 2 years minus 25. Composite will not be used for youth since their average can increase a lot over 2 years. These will be the entering average for the 1st week bowled. The entering averages x 3 will be added to the total pins with the first weeks bowled scores to figure out and start the next weeks average going forward.
YOUR AVERAGE CANNOT DROP LOWER THAN 10 PINS FROM THE AVERAGE USED THE FIRST NIGHT OF BOWLING.
Average will be based on all games bowled!
You will be bowling 3 games. Everyone moves right after each game. .
After 3 games of qualifying there will be a cut to the Top 66% rounding up. There will be one more game each round, cutting out 25% of the cut score round, repeating until game 7 when the tournament is over. Tie Scores for cut automatically move on.
Rd 5: Bowl 1 crown champion.
Point Equation: Finishing Position in Standings, minus number of Entries, plus 1.
You will get 1 point just for bowling. Plus 1 point per bowler you finish above in the standings. So if the first week there is 80 people and you finish last you get 1 point. If you 50th, you will get 31 points.
Points are based on the round you get eliminated and your final position.
Can't make it 2 weeks throughout the season? Bowl Bad a couple weeks? It's ok, we got you, we are only going to take your BEST 8 Weeks Point Totals. Your worst 2 out of 11 weeks are dropped and not included in your point total.
Bowl 12 weeks: $25 per person per week x 1st 11 weeks = $275. Week 12 is FREE to Bowl, must have paid everything in full to be eligible to bowl the final night.
MUST HAVE LEAGUE FEES CURRENT IN ORDER TO BOWL!!!!!!! NO EXCEPTIONS. When you bowl, you pay ($25) league fee you will draw your starting lane. If you miss a week, you must catch up the week(s) missed when you return plus your current weeks fees so you are not behind any money.
***NO BOWLING JULY 16th. The week of Junior Gold*** www.ShaunsTournaments.com will be running the Tornado Eliminator. Same Format, Same Time as League, Only its a Scratch Tournament on the 48ft Tornado Oil Pattern.
If someone cannot make super stepladder finals, then they will be awarded a zero for that game. There will be no substitutes in the super step ladder finals.
At the end of the season, 8 bowlers will bowl the Super Step Ladder Finals to determine the winner of the league.
The rest of the league will bowl in a sweeper for FREE. Around 1 in 4 cash that night.
Top 8 positions in points + will fill the positions of the super step ladder finals.
If there is a tie for season ending points in any cashing spot, there will be a 1 game roll off on Super Step Ladder week at the same time as the Super Step Ladder Finals.
Payouts will be made as standings become final on the final week.
Any questions or concerns about this please contact us.

Music’s biggest stars were all under one roof at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Tuesday night, with Black-ish star Tracee Ellis Ross hosting for a second consecutive year. She opened the proceedings with a dance routine, a promise to highlight black designers through her fashion choices throughout the night, and a fervent hope to end up on the Shade Room (or as she calls it, “the black TMZ”) before the night is over.
Least Political Moment: Fresh off a three-year break from award shows, and complete with newly-minted political personality, Taylor Swift opened the AMAs with “I Did Something Bad” and a guest appearance from a giant snake. Perhaps the song choice could was riposte to the ticking off from President Trump (who now likes her music “25% less”). Sadly, the performance was decidedly unpolitical (although she did get bleeped for saying a naughty word during her song).
Most In Need of a Makeover: Post Malone’s fans want him to appear on the next season of Netflix’s Queer Eye and his sartorial choices—and drinking—at the AMAs probably didn’t change their mind.
Biggest Surprise: The biggest surprise was that Taylor Swift didn’t even feign surprise! She simply smiled, booped Camila Cabello on the nose, and took the stage in a disco-ball masquerading as a dress and rattled off a gracious list of thank yous to her tour mates, her crew, and her fans. The old Taylor really is gone.
Best Diva Moment: Mariah Carey returned to the AMAs for the first time since 2008 and made sure the performance was memorable. She appeared on stage like a Venus in Feathers perched on a cloud-like pink platform singing “With You,” the first single from her upcoming album. The diva was nearly upstaged when her pink cloud erupted and men popped out of her skirt to dance around her like it was the most natural thing in the world.
Best Inter-generational Moment: Busy Phillips and John Stamos came on stage to announce the chosen Favorite Male Artist. Soul/R&B and Phillips admitted that she used to have a huge crush on Stamos. Naturally Stamos, who was wearing a Jonas Brothers t-shirt, wanted to know what killed the crush? “The poster on my wall started to age fast than you did and it started to freak me out,” she said. Then Khalid came on stage to collect his prize and hugged John Stamos even though the 20-year-old probably doesn’t know who he is.
Best Bleeping: When Cardi B, Bad Bunny, and J Balvin showed up to play their song-of-the-summer hit, “I Like It,” the censors had their work cut out for them. The censor was very focused, apparently, because nary a bad word slipped through, which was particularly impressive because there was a full-on carnival on stage and Cardi B was doing her best to distract the censor from the job.
Best Audience Reaction: Former Saturday Night Live star Taran Killam appeared to be gobsmacked by Cardi B’s onstage antics (or the bleeping skills of the censors) and was caught on camera standing with his mouth wide open staring at the carnival that had erupted on stage.
Most Likely To Blow Up The Place: Post Malone got over his reticence long enough to nearly light the stage on fire with dramatic pyrotechnics for his mash-up of “Better Now” and “Psycho” with Ty Dolla $ign. Second place goes to 21 Pilots, who blew up a car like they were auditioning to be special effects men in a remake of the Chuck Norris classic Invasion U.S.A. In third place is Carrie Underwood, who performed “Spinning Bottles” on stage surrounded by wine bottle candle holders that literally spun around her in a circle. Are there firemen on standby?
Most Political Moment: Billy Eichner refused to open the envelope containing the winner’s name until he had his say, which was a plea to the young folks to Vote. He pointed out that it was the final night to register in 20 states in the country and that it was a crucial election for people who care about climate change, LGBTQ rights, and equality. He then told everyone to go to vote.gov “like Taylor Swift told you to” before opening the envelope to announce an award for Shawn Mendes.
Best On Stage Costume Change: When Jennifer Lopez took the stage to perform the Sia-written track, “Limitless”, she was wearing a suit, surrounded by a troupe of female dancers also wearing suits. At the end of the performance it was sequins and nary a suit in site—no calls to the FCC for indecency required.
Best Off-Stage Costume Change: Tracee Ellis Ross re-appeared onstage in a t-shirt urging audience members to vote.
Best Meme Come To Life: When Missy Elliott took the stage with Ciara she brought her “funky white sister” Mary Halsey with her to cheer her on from the audience.
Best Queen Cover Band: Panic! At the Disco showed up to play Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” on stage, but it’s hard to say why they were there playing a very straightforward cover. Was it just to advertise the upcoming Queen biopic or just to prove that they would kill at karaoke?
Sorry, Whitney Houston: If you were wondering why Taylor Swift broke her awards show hiatus, it’s because she was likely to break a record. She did just that when she picked up the Artist of the Year award, breaking Whitney Houston’s record for most wins by a female artist, and becoming the most awarded female artist in AMA history. After Taylor collected her third prize of the night, she boldly went political again, reminding people to vote.
Most Likely To Upset Madonna Remember when Madonna paid tribute to Aretha Franklin at the MTV Video Music Awards, but barely mentioned the Queen of Soul at all? The producers of the AMAs remember it and decided to program an antidote that started with a video retrospective that looked back at Franklin’s entire career and ended with a medley of her hits performed by stars like Gladys Knight and gospel legends Mary Mary and Cece Winans.

Organizing a party, big or small, can be a lot of fun when you use a bit of creativity and work to make your party ideas into reality. It can even be a good source of income for those inclined to pursue it professionally. Whether you are throwing an intimate party for a loved one or a huge bash for your job, planning ahead can make your party one of the most unforgettable of the year.
To begin planning your party, first think about the approximate number of guests you expect. This is arguably one of the most important aspects, as it will determine the space you choose to celebrate in and the types of entertainment you choose, in addition to the amount of food and drink you may need to satisfy everyone. Once you have an idea of how big your party will be and where you would like to have it, you can start thinking about the best forms of entertainment for your guests.
Have you considered hosting a Video Disco Party?
One type of party that has been growing in popularity in recent years is the Video Disco Party. In this type of event, videos or films are projected around the party space to help involve all of your guests and keep everyone engaged in the events of the night. A large projection screen can be set up in the main party area, or several smaller screens can be set up throughout the venue. In addition, if you would like, televisions can be installed throughout the party space to give it a more traditional party feel.
What sorts of videos are shown?
In a Video Disco Party, any type of video you like can be shown! Some party organizers simply like the idea of having beautiful images of swirling water or calm nature scenes adorning the party area, setting the mood for whatever type of party you are having. Other people have synced the DJ’s music list with the screens, showing a mash of music videos to go along with the exciting music coming from your DJ. If you opted for a karaoke party, these screens can even display the lyrics to the music in realtime to help get everyone on the party wagon!
You can also choose to personalize your party as much as possible, including videos or photo slideshows of personal images that speak to the theme of the party and make everyone at the party feel like they are part of the group. To give your party a real disco feel, you can even include a live stream of video from the party itself, allowing your guests to enjoy seeing themselves and their friends and family on the big screen for the night.
What other types of entertainment can I have at a Video Disco Party?
A Video Disco Party can be as personalized as you want. In addition to projection screens and television, you can include a karaoke hour (as mentioned) and any number of other special effects. Party providers like City Nights Discos can help you organize all of these extras for your special event, including perks like a disco ball, smoke machine, and strobe lights when preferred. All of these aspects of your party will make your guests really let loose and engage with one another, remembering this party as one of the best they have ever attended.
There is no point in throwing a party that will not leave a lasting impression on those who attend. Think about making your next event a Video Disco Party to really impress your friends and family while giving them a night for the ages!

DROP – Drop to the floor, take cover under a nearby desk or table and face away from the windows.
HOLD – Hold or maintain this position until you receive the all-clear announcement. In the case the intercom may not be functioning, no announcement will be made. Hold your position until the shaking stops.
ASSIST – Assist those needing help.
WAIT – Once shaking stops, wait for further instruction. In the event of an actual earthquake, the crisis team, led by the principal/administrator, will make the decision whether or not to evacuate the building. This will be communicated via the intercom or a staff runner. In the case that shaking has stopped and you do not receive an announcement from either the intercom or a runner, use good judgment to evacuate safely or remain in your space. In an earthquake drill, after an all-clear announcement is made over the intercom, classes may resume their work.
EVALUATE and EVACUATE: When it is safe to exit the room, evacuate using the fire drill/evacuation procedure. Use good judgment to evacuate using the safest route.
Check in with your buddy teacher/classroom.
If unsafe to evacuate, place the red card or medic card in your window, signifying the need for help. Keep students calm. Try to communicate status through walkie-talkie and/or email if available.
Administer First Aid to the injured.
Move away from buildings or any overhead objects.
Drop, cover and hold as instructed above, but use your hands/forearms to protect your eyes and the back of your head/neck.
*If cover (table or desk) is not available, drop, cover and hold next to a corner of the building or an interior weight bearing wall. Use your hands/forearms to protect your eyes and the back of your head/neck.

Ron asked: Are there statutes or regulations of any kind regarding what types of materials (such as lack of permanence) should be used in the marking of courses for organized rides? I have seen many course markings that fade away rather quickly, and others that seem to last for years.
Although bike events frequently use pavement markings to define a route, they are not legal.
Any roadway markings must comply with the statute concerning uniform traffic control devices.
(3) All official traffic control signals or official traffic control devices purchased and installed in this state by any public body or official shall conform with the manual and specifications published by the Department of Transportation pursuant to subsection (2).
Clearly, such markings are intended to direct the movement of traffic (bicycles). I believe the intent of the following statute is to avoid confusion for drivers and prevent dangerous situations. That probably would not happen with the usual course markings used for cycling events.
(1) No person shall place, maintain or display upon or in view of any highway any unauthorized sign, signal, marking or device which purports to be or is an imitation of or resembles an official traffic control device or railroad sign or signal, or which attempts to direct the movement of traffic, or which hides from view or interferes with the effectiveness of any official traffic control device or any railroad sign or signal.
I recommend checking with your local authorities or Bike/Ped Advisory Committee before placing pavement markings for the route.
I’m not sure if the widely used route markings, typically known as “Dan Henry’s” fit the context of the referenced statute.
They are painted onto the roadway surface close to the outside curb or lane lane, and are pretty much only visible to cyclists. Typically the markers consist of a circle with a short line placed through an appropriate arc of that circle in order to denote any action that cyclists should take at the upcoming intersection in order to stay on route.
Being of that consistence, they do not resemble nor purport to be nor imitate normal traffic signs nor signals, and do not obscure anything at all.
They do not attempt to control traffic flow per se, but rather are information only, and only for cyclists.
Should 316.077 apply to these, then every organized cycling event could be held in violation.
I am merely attempting to ascertain what type of marking medium is prescribed, if any.
Should the practice be considered a violation of 316.077, the point is moot.
I know what you are saying, and that is the reason I worded the post as I did. The markings you refer to are not in the MUTCD or FDOT guidelines, and are not approved for use on the roadway.
They could fall in the category of graffiti if an officer chose to pursue it. Most wouldn’t as far as my experience indicates.
I know it is commonly done, and have actually done it myself. I have also had police officers tell us we couldn’t do it because it isn’t allowed. That is why i suggested that you check with the locals.
This site is intended to discuss the laws and isn’t really a forum for types of materials.
I revised the post to include the statute about uniform traffic control devices.

This report outlines the findings from a collaborative study into 'Cell culture sensitivity and assessment of ultraviolet light inactivation of cryptosporidium under realistic water treatment conditions' initiated by representatives of the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI), United Kingdom Water Industry Research (UKWIR), the American Water Works Association Research Foundation (AwwaRF), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA), Kiwa and the Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA). The research programme identified and assessed using 'blind trials' an optimum cell culture technique that is suitable for routine use in disinfection studies and general risk assessment.
Potential changes to the UK Drinking Water Quality Regulations could make Cryptosporidium inactivation using UV the most cost-effective treatment option in many situations. UV disinfection is well established in water tratment in the UK and elsewhere. There is now a substantial body of evidence to indicate that UV can provide high levels of inactivation of Cryptosporidium at doses typically used for water treatment disinfection. Turbidity below the regulatory limit of 1 NTU should not impair the disinfection performance of UV. Other water quality factors that could impair UV performance by affecting absorbance of UV or fouling of lamps can be dealt with effectively through operational control systems.
The report provides information and guidance on implementation of UV disinfaction to inactivate Cryptosporidium, based on a review of regulations and standards from other countries, particularly the USA.
This report details an investigation into the relationship between farm re-stocking and cryptosporidia. The study took place following the foot and mouth disease (FMD) related cull within the River Caldew catchment, Cumbria. The effects of restocking on the species and subtypes of Cryptosporidium in farmed livestock, wild animals and surface waters, were compared with isolates from farms that had been continually stocked.
Field studies took place in two phases with the aim of taking samples before and after re-stocking. Whilst differences were observed between the phases, the prevalence of Cryptosporidium oocysts in the catchment was similar. This may be related to the rapid restocking of the catchment following the FMD cull and the relative resistance of Cryptosporidium in the environment during the de-stocked period.
This report can also be accessed on the FWR website.

The rally continued last week managing to close above the benchmark 1950 level. The initial bum came from better than expected consumer sentiment. This was reflected in retail sales. There was weakness in the manufacturing sectors. This gave rise to the debate on whether or not the FOMC will raise again raise rates at the March FOMC meetings. A strong February employment report on Friday would increase the likelihood of a March rate increase.
The 1950 is a very important number to the SPX. Market technicians had been predicting another bullish push upward if the SPX could complete a W bottoming formation by closing above 1950.. On Thursday, the SPX completed the formation by closing above 1950. Market technicians are now calling for a bullish outlook in the short-term. Techinical signals – equity only put/call rations and market breadth, are showing buy signals. The VIX needs to go below the 19 level to complete the bullish signals.
The VIX reflected the move upwards in the S&P 500 by hitting new 2016 lows on Thursday. Backwardation in the futures ended the week before last. The VIX futures curve has returned to “normal.” The VIX curve is made by connecting prices of VIX futures contracts but different expiration dates. It is displayed on a chart where the X axis represents expiration date of a futures contract and the Y axis represents prices. VIX futures curve is made of prices of individual VIX futures contracts. The first point (the left end of each curve) on the chart on this page is the spot VIX Index value; the others are futures prices. The far right of the curve is very flat (i.e. the futures prices for different expiration months show very little difference in price.) History has shown this type of flatness in futures curves indicates uncertainty.
The entire week is a lead-up to the US Employment Situation at the end of the week. Wednesday and Thursday will see the release of multiple reports based on domestic employment. Any of the earlier reports will show garner an immediate response from the trade in the E-mini’s – futures on the S&P 500. Other news which may elicit a market response are reports on manufacturing in China and US Factory Orders.
The earnings season is tapering off. The earnings highlights for widely held and actively traded stocks are: 2D Systems, Atmel, Magellan Health, Crocs, Ross Stores, Dollar Tree, Kate Spade, Autozone, Medtronic, Abercrombie&Fitch, American Eagle, Costco, Thor Industries, Kroger, Broadcom, Ciena, H&R Block, Staple, Piedmont Natural Gas, and Big Lots, Announcements date and time can and do change.

“Bhai Vir Singh’s (1872-1957) art is of the highest, not for its power of story-telling; that conjures up past events in panorama, nor for the delicate grace of its purity and beauty; nor, even, for its great humanity. It is the deep realization behind it, so masterly in its imperial authority that the very stones, when called by his voice, move and offer a prayer of thankfulness to their Creator,” writes Prof. Puran Singh (1881-1931).
While trans-creating a chapter from Bhai Vir Singh’s book Kalgidhar Chamtakar, I was transported into another dimension. Prose and poetry blended effortlessly. And what I experienced was a glorious symphony, an unexpected beauty that touched the depths of my being.
This story seems to have been set around the period of the Battle of Bhangani (1688). The Hill Rajas had formed an alliance to fight Guru Gobind Singh Sahib. Suspicion and turmoil are in the air, which comes out loud and clear in this story.
However, this is not that story.
This story is about a woman – the rani of Raipur, who secretly loves the Guru in this turbulent time. Why secretly? Because her husband is not an admirer of the Guru.
Through the sensitive pen of Bhai Vir Singh, we too get to experience her anguish, her yearning, her deep love and her faith for the Guru.
This is truly a unique love-story.
“Astonishing! Isn’t it astonishing that within this body rests the heart? And deep within the heart rests a secreted Sidak (Faith) spark. Layered under numerous veils, I have kept it safe, hidden from envious eyes. But hostile and evil eyes have detected this priceless spark. It amazes me to see the tunnels they have dug and the cannons that are pointing towards me. I can see the volleys coming.
“O’ Terrible destiny! Will this Sidak light-spark in my heart extinguish? Will my mind that has become slightly enlightened with this light-spark get submerged in the darkness of loneliness?
“O! My Sweet Compassionate Giver of this light-spark, be benevolent and save me from these enemies. This plea is from the depth of my being. For, if I lose this Faith-spark, my Guru, I will die while living.
“O’ Giver! Grace me with Your protection. Strangely, I was confident that the light-spark that was within me was out of sight from my enemies. But under the guise of sweet and compassionate love, they shot arrows of maliciousness. Those arrows entered the core of my heart. Covered in sweet talk, bombs of slander penetrated me. Yes! I am in agony. This suppressed resentment is conquering my mind. The agony, the pain is unbearable. I don’t even know if the light-spark is still within me or has it flown to its Source. I look within, and I see nothing. Noise, turmoil and doubts reign within me. I am even confused about my Sidak.” These thoughts flow from the mind of a beautiful, elegant forty-year-old woman who is sitting amidst the flowers.
Sometimes she looks up, sometimes she looks down.
In deep thought, she converses with herself, “Yes! These so-called well-wishers are associates of my body but enemies of my spirit. They are not my friends. A body with all the comforts but without spirit is a wretched dead body. Similarly, life without the Faith-spark is like a dry and dead river bed. They are not my friends, for they are breaking me from my jind (life). They want to extinguish this light-spark of my life. Their words of love are poison to me. Their sympathies don’t ease my agony; they increase it. They are not soothers of pain; they are ruthless givers of pain. It is possible that I misunderstood their love. I don’t even know when I lost the hidden treasure that was within me. The treasure that I had protected under layers of a million curtains.
“O! My dear mind, tell me is this kingdom, this magnificence not temporary? How many kings have owned this kingdom? And where are they now? If the heads of all the previous kings were to be lined up on the earth, there still would be heads left over. Where is their power now? So, where do I stand? If my kingdom goes, what do I lose? If I become a beggar, so what? The heart without the Sidak-spark is a dead heart. Is it worth keeping a dead heart in the body, to own a kingdom? If one were to sit on a straw bed with a heart lit with the Sidak-spark, would it be no less than having a kingdom of heaven? If the heart is the king, one owns the kingdom. If the heart is a beggar, then the kingdom of the body is a disgrace.
“O’ Dearest Sidak-Moon! Turn me in any direction but enter my home-heart and light it up. Let the rays of your love shine within me. I am suffering. My Sidak is quivering. My being is trembling. Darkness surrounds me.
“O’ Sidak-Moon! Lift this darkness, shine your sweet light and put this wanderer back on the path. Grace me.
“O’ My Sidak! Only you can rid me of my inner suppressed resentment.
“O’ My Sidak! Stay strong. There is no one else but you who can rid me of these doubts.
“O’ Owner of Light! Yours is the only support that will lift these feet of mine out of this swamp.
“O’ Owner of Paradise! I can only be lifted by holding on to Your hem. So, attach me to Your hem and take me across. For, when I lift one foot, the other gets stuck deeper in the swamp. Maybe this is what is called doubt?
“O’ Sidak! When you were shining on me, I was in your euphoria. Without you I am in distress, as the chakora (partridge) is in distress without the moonlight. I am longing for your vision.
“O’ Sidak-Moon! If you have chosen to hide yourself, then don’t let the hope of me regaining you ever go away. The hope of regaining you will get me through this darkness of mine.
“Oh! What is this sound? What a lovely, loving tune.
The moon and stars have yet to rise.
The night is cloudy and getting darker like the darkness in my mind.
“O’ Criticism! O’ Spitefulness! O’ Maliciousness!
You are all very powerful.
You have destroyed my inner living home.
“O’ Moon! Rise and glow. Radiate your light and light me too.
“O’ Mind! If you shun the love of the kingdom, then the Sidak-Moon would not need to hide behind the clouds. The threat of losing the kingdom is casting shadows on my faith.
Listen to the beautiful song, I am hearing! I feel it’s coolness. I feel peace. Yes, it is from the Scripture.
If You give a kingdom, what will be so great?
If You make me to beg, what will be reduced?
O’ My mind, you remember the All-Pervasive to be in state of liberation.
Then your comings and goings will end. Reflect.
You created all, [they’re] forgetful in doubts.
The Rani gets up and follows the sound. It takes her to the other end of the garden. She recognizes the old woman who is immersed in singing. With tear-filled eyes the Rani falls at her feet like a mound of dirt.
The elderly woman opens her eyes, lifts the Rani’s head and embraces her. She rubs her hand on the Rani’s back.
Was it a hand or was it magic?
Immediately the Rani’s mind elevates.
Fears, doubts and mistaken beliefs vanish.
Every pore of her body rejuvenates.
Locked in the love-embrace, relishing the rapture of the saintly woman the Rani sits motionless.
Time progresses in this ecstasy.
A sheet of sweet radiance spreads.
It is cold—quite cold, but the sweetness of the moonlight comforts the heart that has experienced the burning. The body is at ease in the cool moonlight. The mind is comfortable in the rising love of the Sidak-Moon and is immersed in the cool radiance of the moonlight.
The Rani’s eyes are closed. The saintly woman sees the sheen and sacredness radiating from the Rani’s face. She knows that the Rani is Grace-immersed. But the temperature is dropping, so she urges the Rani to get up. Holding her hand gently, she walks the Rani through the garden to her room in the palace. The room is lit with candles. Two maids are waiting. They make the Rani sit on the cushioned settee. The Rani is still in a trance. Through one of the maids, the saintly woman sends a message to the Prince to come.
The Prince has been worried about his Mother. He had visited the garden many times, and seeing the silent tears flowing from his Mother’s eyes, he left, not wanting to disturb her. However, seeing his Mother in a trance with closed eyes perturbs him.

You may be trying to open an MXD from a later release of ArcGIS Desktop (i.e. 10.6). Do you know what version this MXD was created in?
Thanks for your reply Jake. I fixed the problem using MXD Doctor utility. You are correct, it was created in an older version and opened and saved it in a newer version. I found this video to be very helpful. Convert MXD File to Old Version (MXD Doctor) - YouTube Do you know how to prevent this in the future?
It would be best to keep everyone at the same release of ArcGIS Desktop.
Yes, this would certainly help for teams. This is a situation where I opened an older file I had created, made edits, saved in the newer version, and was subsequently unable to open again. I presume I will have to repeat this conversion process with any older file.
If you're making edits to the data (i.e. creating/updating/deleting features) you won't have to save the MXD afterwards, just save your edits. However, if you are making changes to a layer (i.e. adding labels, changing symbology, adding an additional layer), then yes you will need to save the MXD.

Toto‘s desire to appeal to design-conscious buyers led to the creation of a range that is timeless, elegant and pure. The Oriel design language combines precision water delivery with an inviting human softness.
GRO design made many incremental study models to refine proportions, surfaces and details. Physical models were the only way to really understand the objects as they would be in actual use.
Oriel’s design language scales easily, allowing it to cover a full 30-piece bathroom range.

This is something Jim Burrs addresses with candor and grace here and here. It’s a tough question, an honest one, not a very Sunday-School question: Is this One we profess allegiance to a good sort of god? Is this god we hold in our hearts worthy of a passing respect, and–still more–worship? It is precisely when we take this question seriously that our faith deepens, and our “relationship with God” (so commonly bandied about in evangelical subculture) becomes genuinely relational.
The question is often posed by skeptics and atheists, but what would it look like if it came from the heart of faith and biblical literacy? My guess is it would look alot like Jack Miles’ masterful (and Pulitzer-winning) two-volume series, God: A Biography and Christ: A Crisis in the Life of God. They’re uber-challenging, and way more substantiative than many casual critiques of faith or Scripture that–by contrast to Miles–seem rather caricatured. To me Miles is the ultimate ‘frenemy’ of Christian faith as-it-exists – his reconstructive narrative should be required reading for any 21st century person of faith.
This was originally posted October 21, 20017.
6 Responses to Is God Likable?
I intentionally bypassed the suggested links to this question, (although I am sure they are awesome) just to share how I began answering this question a few years back. I would go around, chatting it up with Jesus throughout my day, saying things back and forth, such as “I love you Jesus, I love you Jesus…” all the while registering, at times feeling like it was great leaps of faith that ‘He loved me.’ Well, the word love started bugging me, because I would so often hear it used by people who would kind of go, “Ya, well, God seems to be mad at me, but yes, I concede, I know He loves me…etc.” They may not have said it in those exact words, but, to me, that certainly seems to be the way they seemed to mean it.
So, I started changing my thing, and now I often ponder, and confess with my mouth, how much I ‘like’ Jesus and His ways. Even when I don’t understand them, or they seem to be hurting, I will repeat it until I get a smile or some joy thing going on, often reflecting on past things I did not understand, (broken or lost relationships, medical trauma…you name it) and how out of it, God has always seemed to do something outstandingly wonderful and great.
Yes, I hope I love Him, but I get a kick out of pressing beyond the lame simplicity I applied to that word, and no matter what life throws my way, I have been stretching to ‘like God’ and ‘be happily-crazed over his methods and practices’ in my life, despite my lack of understanding and ability to always comprehend them.
I’ve found this works great for me.
So is he a good God? I don’t answer that question so much, as I know I like Him.
Mike… I’m definitely going to check out that book by Miles, thanks for the tip – my interest is definitely tweaked! – and thanks also for the kind “nod” on your blog about some of my posts.
I seem to think this is a question of, “Is my image of God likeable?”, which is to say, “Am I capable of liking what I don’t fully understand?” We begin to know God by hearsay, then by faith in His love and constancy, then by direct experience of life’s difficulties. It is at this point that we doubt and wonder if what we have heard is true, or if what we are experiencing is normal. This brings us face-to-face with our own need for assurance and our own capacity – or lack thereof – to provide it.

Given the multitude of movies about writers, journalists and even publishers, it’s nice to see a film about a proofreader for a change considering they’re just as impotant.
This 2002 scary Japanese girl movie follows a divorced proofreader (Hitomi Kuroki – Elastigirl in the Japanese Incredibles dub) who’s fighting to keep custody of her 6-year-old daughter (Rio Kanno). Together they move into a flat with a leaking ceiling (presumably student accommodation) and a damp ghost.
Dark Water is another creepy J-Horror from the novelist and director of Ring (Koji Suzuki and Hideo Nakata respectively). The film’s slow buildup drips disconcertingly into your head before eventually submerging you in emotional horror.
It shares this sad, atmospheric approach with Ring but suffers from being too similar (they could have called it Ring Stain), feeling neither as intense nor affecting.
The claustrophobic focus on 2 characters plays like The Babadook only soggier (The Babaduck), while a game of Hide-and-Seek brings to mind the use of Grandmother’s Footsteps in The Orphanage. Like both those films, it’s the story of a mother coming to terms with loss – in this case confronting the fear of losing custody of her daughter.
Kuroki (who also provided a voice in Ghibli ghost story When Marnie Was There) is highly sympathetic as the woman with an even bigger leakage problem than Donald Trump (the proofreader’s natural enemy), and it’s the day-to-day nature of her horrors (plumbing, broken lifts etc) that make them convincing.
What makes them frightening is the shiver-inducing atmosphere – the dripping sound design and brilliantly horrible apartment set. It’s also the rainiest movie ever made, to the point that it even rains indoors. It makes Se7en look like heaven. That means a raincoat is required, lending the film an unnerving Don’t Look Now vibe – plus there’s the best elevator effect since The Shining.
Like all J-Horror it was remade (with Jennifer Connelly and Tim Roth) into something of a damp squib. The original is a mould movie to rival 2013 horror comedy Motivational Growth – and while it may not be perfect, its haunting qualities seep in through the flaws.

Hello! Hi! That silly and beautiful girl is me, Hilary Swank or Hilly for short. I am a 3.5 year old Black Mouth Cur weighing in about 50 lbs. Like my actress counterpart, I am very strong and athletic which makes for a perfect exercise companion. With a little training, I bet I would be an excellent runner or hiker, as I just love being outside and staying active! That being said, having an owned home with a big yard to run around in would be the dream! Being a youngster, I am a spunky and bouncy gal who enjoys fetch and playing with those super fun squeaker toys. With my doggy pals, I can be a little stiff at first, but with a slow introduction you can instantly see my goofy personality and boxer like playstyle as I bounce around the room, trying to get my play mates to play! It’s pretty cute and puppy like play for sure. No kitties in my home please! I am a very smart gal and know some of the basics already, including sit. I catch on very quickly and would really enjoy learning some more of the basics! At the end of the day, it’s my human pals over 10 that I love to be around the most. I have been told I am a wonderful snuggler and a good listener, as we settle in for the night on the couch watching some of my favorite movies (Million Dollar Baby anyone?). Adorable, goofy, and a total sweetheart, I am ready to be your adventure sidekick today! Fill out an application today, so we can meet! I come to spayed, vaccinated, and micro-chipped with an adoption fee of $350.

Artists in general and musicians, in particular, are a quirky bunch.
On one hand, we develop some pretty thick skin that deflects harsh critiques, snide comments, occupational harassment, and peer judgment.
On the other hand, we develop a style of sensitivity and emotional addiction that drives us to become closer to our craft, self-conscious of our work, and insecure about our public display.
It is quite the juxtaposition.
Yet throughout the course of life, we all encounter situations that get the best of us; situations that pierce our thick skin, lodge themselves deep within our soul and get tangled in our sensitivity and emotional addiction.
That’s why simplicity is beautiful.
Simplicity clears the emotions, blows out the confusion, refreshes the mind, and rejuvenates the heart.
When you boil it all down, what is left to guide you is your thought.
The ideas the drive you, the dreams that move you, the morals that shape you, the passion that fuels you, the wisdom that advises you, the vision that guides you, the soul the defines you, the memories that remind you, and the love that revives you… are all based on thought.
Thus, I did this posts that focus on the manner in which an artist/musician/drummer should think in order to cope, act, and succeed in the arts.
Who do you want to be? What type of qualities do you want to have? What type of characteristics do you want to display? How do you want to make an impact on other people’s lives? How do you want your work to reflect you?
Most artists/drummers spend a lot of time studying and researching what other respected individuals in their field have done. This is a great learning tool, but at some point, you have to step aside and decide what it is that will make you YOU in the world.
Learning to appreciate and emphasize the qualities that make you YOU will not only make you happier but also more memorable.
What do you want to do? What is your dream? What do you deserve? What makes you happy?
Think about these questions and don’t feel guilty or self-conscious about your answers. Instead, do everything you can to compliment your big thinking and then follow your big thoughts with big actions.
Do you want to be the first person to drum on the moon? Go for it.
What makes people memorable? What makes people interesting?
The fact that they have a unique persona about them or that they are different from other individuals you know probably has a lot to do with it.
Following someone else’s footsteps casts you in the shadow of that person. Find what makes you YOU and spin it in a way that makes you unique in your art.
Had it not been for his concept of the assembly line, Henry Ford may have never achieved his great success of mass producing automotive vehicles.
As mundane as an individual task in an assembly line may be, the overall process is an incredibly efficient method of production. For its sheer qualities of simplicity and efficiency, the assembly line is a beautiful concept.
Artists can’t think this way directly because the act of creation is built on sporadic and chaotic ideas that manage to gel themselves together in a single piece of work. To create some type of assembly line for this process would jeopardize the core potential that the work obtains (something that no artist should want to risk).
Instead, artists can think of entire projects as stations on an assembly line. At each station, focus all of your attention and effort on completing one project. When the said project is complete, move to the next station (project).
What does this do and why is it efficient?
It organizes your thoughts, efforts, and attention. Listen carefully because this is why most people fail: instead of having ten projects going on at one time and making slow progress on all of them, you focus on one project at a time allowing you to complete it sooner and with a higher caliber of detail. As you move through each individual project at a faster completion rate and with more detail, you will probably complete the original ten projects sooner than you would if you worked on them all simultaneously.
Face it, artists have tons of ideas and are often scatterbrained. By focusing on one project at a time you have the ability to complete more projects in a timely fashion. The more you complete, the better you feel and the sooner you can get to complete other projects. It can boost your spirits and help deliver your message into the world.
By this point, you have decided what big goals you want to accomplish and what you want to be. The question is, why wait to become those things?
Many people, myself included, get caught up in the moment. During those moments, procrastination always finds a way to present its self and the thought of working towards your goals at a later time sounds far too appealing to pass up. You get your instant gratification by watching that TV show or movie and call it a night. What a feeling. Yet meanwhile, your grand goals are sitting in your mind collecting dust… fantastic.
Avoid setting out on a mission with no intent to succeed at it. Create goals and work towards reaching them, NOW.
Be the opposite of ordinary and gain an exceptional reputation as a result.
Make exceptional promises and fulfill them.
Establish exceptional goals and accomplish them.
You spend hours upon hours practicing your instrument, but the fact of the matter is that the majority of your practice time is wasted. I will teach you the first rule to maximizing your practice time and learning more in the process.
All you need to do to improve your practice results is utilize a simple yet important observation made by the Italian economist, Vilfredo Pareto.
In 1906, Pareto noticed that there was an unequal distribution of wealth in Italy in which 20% of the people owned 80% of the wealth. While fascinated with this distribution of wealth, he also observed that 20% of the peapods in his garden yielded 80% of the peas that were harvested.
Since Pareto was the first person to note this ratio, the concept has become commonly known as the Pareto Principle and states that the majority of effects come from a minority of causes.
While the numbers can vary depending on the situation (say 85/15, 90/10, or 75/25), the concept still remains the same.
In the percussionist’s case, 80% of your improvement is the result of 20% of your practice.
Write down a few specific goals that you want to accomplish in your practice session.
At the end of your practice session, give every tactic, method, and exercise a rating between 0% and 100%. 100% being it made you better and was effective in helping you reach your goal and 0% being it didn’t make you much better and didn’t get you closer to your goal. Be harsh. Do not lump all of your tactics up in the mid 70’s. Give the tactics that worked really high scores and the tactics that didn’t work really low scores.
Look at the ratings and identify the small number of tactics that created most of your improvement.
In your next practice session (assuming you’re still working to achieve similar goals), only use the tactics that worked best.
By utilizing Pareto’s Principle, you cut out time-wasting tactics that don’t produce meaningful results. When you cut those out of your practice sessions, you are left with refined, efficient, and effective methods that will help you maximize your time by learning more at a faster pace.
When practicing, make sure that you create small and specific goals to accomplish. For example, instead of making your goal, “Learn Solo X” make it, “Learn the first 5 measures of Solo X at a slow defined tempo.” This will help you rate the effectiveness of your methods more accurately after the session.
Also, be sure to keep a list of what methods work for you when trying to accomplish different goals. Some methods will be more effective for drum set than marimba so be sure to keep track of what methods work for every instrument and type of goal.
After you get in the habit of slimming down and refining your practice methods to yield the greatest improvement, you will be capable of learning more in less time.
What do you want to sound like?
In order to arrive at a destination, you must first know where you want to be going. Without a destination, you will move around aimlessly and only arrive at locations you happen to stumble upon. Happening to stumble upon a location is only a matter of chance.
Why resort to the level of allowing your sound to be the result of chance? Why, after years of practice and hard work, would you be willing to risk sounding a way that you happened to develop and not the way you wanted to sound?
Ask yourself the opening question. Make your answer your destination. Create maps and directions that will lead you to that destination in a timely manner and take off on your journey.

With thousands of feet of materials including sequences added to capture with greater intimacy Elvis' performances and his creative process behind-the-scenes, the previously released Elvis: That’s The Way It Is - Special Edition is now being made available as a Blu-ray™ two disc Special Edition Premium Digibook. Denis Sanders (Shock Treatment) directed this “rockumentary.” Academy Award® nominated Lucien Ballard (The Wild Bunch) was the cinematographer, following the show’s development from rehearsal to stage.
fascinating sights of ’60s Las Vegas. David Winters (West Side Story) choreographed the 10 musical song-and-dance scenes which also featured his dancers. Songs include the high-roller title track, the stars’ duet on “The Lady Loves Me,” her sultry “Appreciation” and The King’s version of Ray Charles’ “What’d I Say.” The soundtrack is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 stereo.
Elvis Presley was one of Hollywood’s top box-office draws, starring in 31 feature films and two theatrically-released concert documentaries over the course of his career. His music was as much a part of his box-office success as his good looks and charisma. In fact, some of his top-selling songs were from the movie soundtracks. Eleven of his soundtrack albums made it into the top ten on the Billboard Album charts and of those, four became number one hits. It is estimated that Elvis has sold over a billion records worldwide, more records than any other artist in record industry history, and even 30 years after his death, Elvis still conquers new legions of fans as even compilations of his RCA recordings, such as “Elvis 30 #1 Hits” and “Elvis 2nd to None,” have both topped the Billboard charts of best-selling albums.
More biographical information is available at the official Elvis Presley Web site,www.elvis.com.

Although plenty of research supports that a positive marital relationship can have benefits for your health, including a recent project from the British Cardiovascular Society identifying that married individuals have a 14% less chance to die from a heart attack when compared with single people, there can also be negative implications of a marriage that is stressing you out and causing physical signs of deterioration.
This is most common when your marriage is toxic. A 2005 research study identified that an unhealthy marriage can have significant implications on your emotional and your physical health.
Although the study in the British Cardiovascular Society reported that a marriage can have benefits for your heart health, individuals who are in closed but still toxic relationships are more likely to get heart disease.
It turns out that your relationship could actually be a source of physical health problems for you if you don’t spot these signs early and determine what you can do about it.
In order to determine whether or not your marriage has reached the boiling point, there are important considerations and aspects of self-reflection with which you need to engage.
All of this research doesn’t mean that a bad marriage necessarily makes you sick or that a good marriage promotes your health.
However, there is no doubt that a bad marriage can have negative implications for you and your health.
You may need to speak with a Florida divorce attorney if your unhealthy marriage is taking a toll on your life.
If you are currently in a bad marriage and this is taking a toll on your daily life, you may be feeling the impacts in your job or at home.
Never underestimate the impact that stress can have on your life. Couples with severe stress, including situations where one is physically abusive to another or when one partner has no empathy, are much more likely to face divorce.
With other issues, you may be able to address them by meeting with a couple’s therapist.
This can work if both parties are committed to working things out, then setting aside the time and making the marriage a priority can help to eliminate stress. However, both parties have to be on the same page in order to make this work.
Every marriage faces challenges, but if you don’t talk about problems when they are smaller, the distance between you and your partner will only continue to grow.
When you identify a problem that is causing your relationship to become toxic, it’s a good idea to make an effort to talk about this first.
Improving communication can be accomplished by meeting with a marriage counsellor, pursuing marriage education courses or reading books about communication.
Just as important in this chain of communication is your willingness to listen to your partner.
One of the most common signs of a toxic marriage is that partners do not listen to one another.
This has negative impacts because you not only fail to hear what your spouse is concerned about, but yields up resentment against you because they do not feel heard in the relationship.
Setting aside a clear time to sit down and communicate can help to break down these walls.
If you recognize that you have a problem and that the relationship is toxic, it can be tempting to put all of the blame on the spouse who has caused these problems.
This can actually lead to further arguments and resentment between the two of you. At this point, you must decide whether it is worth attempting to save the marriage or whether it is in your best interest to file for divorce in Florida.
It’s never an easy decision to come to the conclusion that you need to get separated or divorced. But in a toxic marriage this can be extremely important for protecting your health.
Since a toxic marriage can be so detrimental to your physical and emotional well-being, weigh the pros and cons carefully before meeting with a skilled Tampa divorce lawyer.

The name “My Girlfriend’s Closet” was chosen to reflect the desire of the teens who founded the organization to share their gently used clothing with disadvantaged girls their own age – just as they do with their girlfriends. The organization’s structure was designed to include and, in fact, depend upon the active participation and shared decision-making of the teen volunteers, thus fulfilling another objective: to teach young leaders how to initiate and effectively run a nonprofit organization for the benefit of the community.
We target San Diego-area teenage girls and young women, ages 13-22, whose need is greatest – the homeless and those in foster care – by working closely with the social service agencies that serve them. Additional disadvantaged teens are identified and invited to our clothing distribution events by the community organizations that serve them and their families. My Girlfriend’s Closet currently serves approximately 800 young women in need each year.
My Girlfriend’s Closet is a nonprofit organization run by a mother-daughter board of directors, localized in San Diego, California that collects quality, gently used clothing, shoes and accessories and distributes it to foster, homeless and economically disadvantaged teenage girls and young women.
Throughout the year, we organize collections of gently-worn and new clothing, shoes and accessories at local schools, sororities, community organizations, corporations and retail stores. We collect shirts, pants, jeans, shorts, dresses, skirts, sweaters, pajamas, coats, shoes, jewelry, belts, hats, scarves, handbags, stuffed animals, and unopened cosmetics and toiletries.
Before a distribution event, we hold a day-long event to inspect and sort collected clothing and other items to ensure that each meets the standards set by the organization for condition and quality. Clothing is sorted by size and category, packed into bins and stored at a rented facility until the distribution event.
We set up the clothing giveaway venue to resemble a high-end clothing boutique. Items are carefully hung and displayed by size and category on rounders and racks, or neatly folded and displayed on tables. Our goal is to create an inviting setting where prequalified young women can shop with pride. When the event opens, the “shoppers” sign in and receive two large handle bags that they can fill to the brim with items of their choosing. All items are free.
MGC relys on volunteers to help all that we do. We always need help collecting clothing, sorting and setting up our events. Plus, high school girls are eligible to serve on the board of directors with their mother. This provides a first-hand experience of running a non-profit while contributing to the community.

This is belated but what a steal by Cameroon!
What a match and what a way to win it - take a bow Aboubakar.
It seems to me that his team mates knew that he specialises in using his chest to control long balls because he almost created another goal-scoring opportunity a few minutes prior using a similar technique.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-fungal activity of Aloe vera extract on Candida albicans. Materials and Methods: Extract from A. vera fruit was tested for anti-fungal activity via in vitro study at various concentrations using the disc diffusion method. Results: A. vera extract at 1000 μg/ml concentration effectively inhibited the growth of C. albicans (14 mm) compared with the positive control-amphotericin B (15 mm). It was found to be a dose-dependent reaction. Conclusion: A. vera displayed good anti-fungal effect on C. albicans and the inhibitory effect varied with concentration.
The frequency of life-threatening infections caused by pathogenic fungal microorganisms is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients in developing countries. This is further worsened by the situation of multi-drug resistant strains of bacteria due to the increase in the use of antibiotics and there remains a paucity of newer group of antibiotic drugs. , Despite the existence of potent antibiotic and anti-fungal agents, resistant or multi-resistant strains are continuously appearing, imposing the need for a permanent search and development of new drugs. Plants are the cheapest safer and time-tested alternative sources of antimicrobials. ,, In ancient times, people believed that plants had curative powers. Phytotherapy or phytomedicine has been a part of both Eastern and Western medical traditions since 2000 BC. Literature shows that the Chinese used ginseng at least 3000 years ago, Native Americans used willow bark tea to reduce fever. Each civilization that has progressed has stressed the use of medicinal plants. The recent increase in the popularity of herbals products globally may reflect the fact that a lot of people have disbelief with the current allopathic medical practice. People feel that using herbal extracts caters to purity, simplicity, and safety. Most people feel that herbal medicines are safer and less toxic. Popularly used herbal supplements in the dental field are licorice, ginger, ginseng, garlic, and clove. Much of the information available herbal supplements are market driven and not supported by clinical research studies. Moreover, the quality, strength, and purity of the medication depend on the time, place, and season of cultivation apart from the techniques used in processing and packing.
Aloe vera is a well-known medicinal plant belonging to the Liliaceae family. It is a cactus-like plant that grows readily in hot tropical climates. The slimy gel in the A. vera leaf (A. vera gel) has traditionally been used for treatment of the digestive tract disturbances, sunburn and wounds and it has been attributed to more than 75 active agents. The gel consists of 98-99% water and the remaining 1-2% contains the active compounds, such as aloesin, aloin, aloe-emodin, aloemannan, acemannan, aloeride, naftoquinones, methylchromones, flavonoids, saponin, sterols, amino acids, and vitamins. The levels of these compounds vary according to species, strain, and growth conditions. The pharmacological actions of A. vera gel as studied in vitro and in vivo include anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, immune-boosting and hypoglycemic properties. ,, In the present study, we investigated the anti-fungal activity of A. vera gel in order to find its potential applicability in the field of dentistry.
0Aloe vera is a stemless or very short-stemmed succulent plant growing to 60-100 cm (24-39 in) tall, spreading by offsets. The leaves are thick and fleshy, green to grey-green, with some varieties showing white flecks on their upper and lower stem surfaces. A. vera leaves contain phytochemicals under study for a possible bioactivity, such as acetylated mannans, polymannans, anthraquinone C-glycosides, anthrones, other anthraquinones, such as emodin and various lectins. The leaf was cut, and the juice that drained from it was freshly collected in a plastic container. 1000, 500, 250 μg, and 100 μg were diluted in 10 ml of ethanol. The sample was kept aside for 24 h and was stirred occasionally.
The Kirby-Bauer method was used. Crude ethanolic extract of A. vera was used. Standard positive control for Candida albicans-amphotericin B (concentration 10 μg/disc) was used. The leaf was cut, and the juice that drained from it was freshly collected in a plastic container. 1000, 500, 250 and 100 μg was diluted in 10 ml of ethanol. The sample was kept aside for 24 h and was stirred occasionally. The samples were then subject to microbial growth after 24 h.
Stock cultures were maintained at 4°C on slant of nutrient agar. Active cultures for experiments were prepared by transferring a loopfull of cells from the stock cultures to test tubes of nutrient broth for fungi that were incubated at 24 h at 37°C. The assay was performed by agar disc diffusion method.
Anti-fungal activity of the given sample was determined by disc diffusion method on Muller-Hinton agar (MHA) medium. The MHA medium is poured into the petriplate. After the medium had been solidified, the inoculums were spread on the solid plates with sterile swab moisture with the bacterial suspension. The discs were placed on MHA plate with the help of sterile forceps and different concentrations (1000, 500, 250, and 100 μg) of each sample were loaded on the discs. The plates were incubated for 24 h, at 37°C. Then the microbial growth was determined by measuring the diameter of the zone of inhibition.
[Table 1] and [Figure 1] show the anti-fungal activity of A. vera versus the control. The center disc represents the positive control amphotericin B. The dimethyl sulfoxide was not used here as it was to observe fungal activity. Anti-fungal activity appeared at 250 μg it was 7 mm, at 500 μg it was 9 mm and at 1000 μg it was 14 mm. The activity increased with increasing concentrations. It was as effective as the positive control amphotericin B which showed 15 mm of zone of inhibition.
Oral opportunistic fungal infections are chronic and ubiquitous in nature. They have a slow rate of progression and are often asymptomatic for large number of diseased years only when their growth is significantly large the problem arises. But usually by then the problem has reached a sufficient magnitude that it is nearly difficult to treat and eradicated it completely. With candida infection, the problem of recurrence is very common. The problem is exemplified with the increase in the growth of the resistance of the organism to the anti-fungal medication.
The present study highlights the fact that A. vera gel proves to be effective in the case of opportunistic fungal infections especially for the immunocompromised subjects like organ transplant patients HIV subjects as this will reduce the burden of the medication. The usage of A. vera will also be cost effective as the cultivation is relatively easy. One can almost cultivate it in the backyard of their own homes.
Aloe vera contains 75 potentially active constituents that include vitamins, minerals, sugars, lignin, saponins, salicylic acids, amino acids, and enzymes. The activity of A. vera is attributed to the ingredients called Glucomannan and Gibberelli. The former is a mannose-rich polysaccharide, and the latter is a growth hormone which interacts with growth-factor receptors on the fibroblast, thereby stimulating proliferation, which significantly increases collagen synthesis after application.
The anti-microbial effect of A. vera is attributed to the component called as plant's natural anthraquinones. Anthraquinones are naturally occurring aromatic compound that are found in plants that and are applicable in the field of medicine and the dye industry. The anthraquinones found in A. vera are emodin, aloetic acid, aloin, anthracene, anthranol, barbaloin, chrysophanic acid, ethereal oil, ester of cinnamic acid, isobarbaloin, and resistannol. As suggested by Wynn, this component plays a vital role by the way of inhibiting the cyclooxygenase pathway and reduces prostaglandin E2.
Yagi et al. reported that A. vera gel contains a glycoprotein with cell proliferating-promoting activity while Davis et al. noted that A. vera gel improved wound healing by increasing blood supply (angiogenesis), which increased oxygenation, as a result.
Aloe vera has very strong antioxidant nutrients. Glutathione peroxide activity, superoxide dismutase enzymes, a phenolic antioxidant and vitamins A, C, E were found to be present in A. vera gel, which may be responsible for these antioxidant effects. All these factors help us to understand the useful benefits of using A. vera in the dental field.
Though this study is done in a preliminary stage, it gives a broader idea of the strong anti-fungal properties of A. vera. The concentration of the usage of A. vera gel according to the study was found to be 1000 μg at this level optimum activity of in terms of increased minimal inhibitory concentration levels was observed for therapeutical purposes. It is recommended that further research is done on the in vivo effects of A. vera on the oral micro-organism are done to observe the effect of the gel on the microorganisms under biologic conditions. The results presented here are phase one of the research phase, two is in process to strongly validate the recommendation of the use of A. vera gel as a medium for oral anti-fungal use.

Week 9 NFL was the worst ever for the books!
Final numbers are in. Public enjoyed their most profitable day in the history of the company yesterday by far - not even close. Congrats. Cant wait to sweat that Falcons (-4) at Browns game next week.
BetOnline and other books were looking for your donations. In other words, take all your winnings from this weekend and throw them at the Monday Night Football game between the Titans and Cowboys.
The books had a chance at winning some of that money back or they could have had salt thrown on their wounds. Action was lopsided on this game.
Dallas was seeing 65% of the action on the -5 spread and close to 90% of the money line action priced at -230. Needless-to-say, books were cheering on the Titans in a very big way Monday night and they ended up winning outright.
BetOnline even moved to -4. Dave Mason reports bettors still won out on the OVER 40 though. Our pick was on the Titans as noted below. Only the results of this piece were updated.

The other day I needed to print something in color. My old color printer had gone to printer heaven (prematurely, I found out later), and so I hooked up a new one to the computer. Oh, but first I needed to download a printer driver .... and that's where the fun began. Or rather, the fun ended.
I loaded it, it wouldn't take. I uninstalled it and started over. Okay, this time it loaded, but now the ink wouldn't work. I went to the store and bought a new ink cartridge. The color worked, but now the B&W wouldn't work.
I gave up. I emailed my file to Mr. L and he printed it on his computer. Time lost? Three hours.
I haven't given up on making that printer work, but I sure have lost patience. I love my laser printer. It's eight years old and I've been babying it along because it works so well. While looking at color printers, I looked at the latest version of my laser printer and it looks cheesy in comparison. I know when I have to replace it that the new one won't work half as well.
Planned obsolescence. What an obscene term.
My toaster is 56 years old. we had to replace the plug a couple of weeks ago, but it now has a new lease on life.
I like products that not only work well, but KEEP working.
What disappointing product are you dealing with this week?
I bought a second hand gas dryer in 1986. It was bought second hand by my girl friend, who was moving..so I took it for 100 bucks. I had to pay for the gas to be connected outdoors, but now here it is 2013, and the darn thing is still running great!!!
If that is your toaster pictured it's back in style! LOL!
I feel your pain. I'm constantly replacing appliances. Last month is was the coffee pot, month before garage door opener, then the dishwasher. It's seems like every month, it's another appliance. It seems my running average is about 3 years of use and it breaks. I'm so tired of it. I had a washer and dryer set that I bought in 1979 and they were still running great when I bought the new set in 2000 because I wanted newer appliance. I even bought Maytags only to have them die 7 years later.
Stainless steel electric frying pans. Why does everything (or so it seems) need to be coated with something?
"What disappointing product are you dealing with this week?"
This is the era of throw-away electronics. Sad but true!
It's a Sunbeam. We had the same one when I was growing up. I am now the owner of 4 of them ... not that I think I will need another one any time soon ... but you never know!
I got rid of all my teflon pans and bought a ton of Revere and Farberware pans at yard sales. Believe it or not, they clean up with very little effort--much easier than the teflon, which (if scraped off) is carcinogenic. Yup. I'll stick with Revere.
Bev, I absolutely loathe my energy efficient washing machine. It has no filter. The clothes come out with just as much cat hair as they went in with. I've taken to vacuuming some stuff before I put it in the washer. And why do I have powder marks on my darks when I use a liquid detergent???
Oh boy can I identify with that. I hung onto my day job for years by the skin of my teeth. I had no idea how liberating it would be NOT to have to go to that hellhole every day. And now I have a new career I love (writing). Wish I'd taken the buy out now.
I am so happy I don't have to deal with new appliances and gadgets anymore. I have acquired a boyfriend after living alone for 17 years, and he just loves anything with an electrical cord or a battery. Install my new phone? Look at my new camera? Deal with the printer? It is just a hobby for him, and I have much less stress and aggravation for it. Of course I grumble when he buys new things? Why? The old one works fine! But well, that is a guy, always wanting the new things on the market. And after a fashion, I enjoy it as well.
Mr. L took a turn at trying to get the dumb thing to work. He also gave up. I'm not beaten yet ... but now it wants different ink!

First photo: Run in place and check the natural distance of the feet. Then stand on your toes and ease your heels down on the ground. This is the relaxed standing posture.
Second photo: Person who does Ki test stands diagonally in front and left of her partner and with her right hand, pushes gently on examinee's body between the left chest and shoulder.
Third photo: Examinee can keep her posture stable without trying to not move.
I will explain some important points with Ki Testing. It is not important if you move or not move. When you receive Ki test, you can resist "not to move" intentionally. However, if you think "do not move", you become tense and as a result, you loose natural stability. There is no value in trying to not move. The posture which is in harmony with the Universe or the posture with oneness of mind and body has natural stability. If your posture is correct, your posture is naturally stable. You do not have to brace yourself. The posture with oneness of mind and body is not only stable but allows you to move at anytime. If your body is tense, you cannot move freely at any time. If you tense your muscles in your legs or lower abdomen, you cannot be stable and cannot move freely. The posture in harmony with the Universe is the posture with oneness of mind and body. In this posture natural stability is kept and you can move anytime quickly. Let's do Ki test while sitting (Seiza).
First, rise on your knees as shown in the photo. Many people have a habit of putting their chest out and becoming tense. Move your shoulders up and down. You must move only your shoulder. You will find that it is difficult to move your shoulders up and down when you are tense.
On the other hand, if you have a hunched posture, it is difficult to move your shoulders up and down. The position that allows you to move your shoulders up and down the easiest is the natural position of the shoulder.
Next, sit down calmly. When you sit down, please do not push down on your lower body. When you sit, cross your big toes, one over the other. It does not matter which toe is above.
Check to be sure that you move your shoulders up and down several times. Put your hand on your lap lightly. Do not push down. When you receive Ki test, you will find that you are stable naturally without trying to not move. This is Seiza (sitting) posture with oneness of mind and body.

Kirby: Squeak Squad is a platforming video game in the Kirby series developed by HAL Laboratory and Flagship and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS handheld video game console. The game was released in Japan and North America in 2006, and in Europe, Australia and in South Korea in 2007.
As in most of his games, Kirby is able to copy the abilities of certain enemies by inhaling and swallowing them. There are also interactive environments, with obstacles that are passable with copy abilities (examples include freezing water to get across with the Ice ability, or cutting down tall tufts of grass with his Sword or Cutter ability). Kirby is also able to collect and store copy abilities and items in his stomach, which is represented on the touch screen. A special power, "Bubble", can be used to create such abilities from the monsters on the screen. The player can combine certain abilities, similar to Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards; however, these are limited to only Sword, Fire, Ice, Spark, Bomb, and Wheel. Mixing abilities is achieved by dragging one ability over another with the stylus. If the two are compatible with each other, they will combine and produce a new ability (example: Fire + Sword = Fire Sword). This can only be done if the scroll (mentioned below) for a certain ability is found. However, if they are not compatible, they will combine to create a random bubble.
As another aspect of the storage and mixing ability, Kirby can acquire subparts of a bonus power item and then mix them to create that bonus item. For example, collecting three mini-Kirbys will grant the player an extra life, while collecting three small stars will generate a large star that can be used for destroying large enemies. Kirby can also store health-restoring items as well.
Returning copy abilities include Beam, Bomb, Cupid, Cutter, Fighter, Fire, Hammer, Hi-Jump, Ice, Laser, Magic, Ninja, Parasol, Sleep, Spark, Sword, Throw, Tornado, U.F.O., and Wheel. New abilities are Animal, Bubble, Ghost, Metal, and Triple Star. Many of the copy abilities feature multiple attacks, a recurring trend also seen in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror.
A new concept to Kirby games introduced in this game are the Copy Scrolls, which power up any power that Kirby has when chosen. Examples include Hammer growing to nearly double its normal size if charged up, Tornado and Wheel taking the elemental properties of the terrain they pass over, and Spark building up energy that can be released in a similar fashion to the way the Plasma ability from Kirby Super Star worked.
Each level contains one or more treasure chests (usually each level contains two small red chests and a large blue chest, although boss levels only contain one big blue chest), with the ultimate goal of the game to collect all the chests; the chests include keys needed to unlock secret levels and worlds, the ability to change Kirby's color, portions of a jigsaw puzzle picture, and more additional game content; these are awarded when the player successfully completes the level with that chest. The player will need to make sure they have enough space in Kirby's stomach to store the chests, removing unneeded items or combining similar items to make space. The larger chests are generally more difficult to obtain, and require Kirby to face a member of the Squeak Squad in a mini-challenge of sorts. If the opponent gets the chest, they will attempt to escape into their own small hideout, but if the player is fast enough, they can follow them into this hideout and attempt to beat them and retrieve the chest. If the player fails to obtain any chests, they are free to go back to any previously completed level to try to retrieve the chest again; chests already recovered can be collected again, but it will contain an item in a bubble. Only five items can be stored at a time.
The game supports multi-card multiplayer and single-card download play for three special mini-games based on the Squeak Squad.
"Early afternoon in Dream Land... It's so peaceful that even the clouds are drowsy. And now it's Kirby's favorite time of the day: snack time! Today's yummy snack is a sweet, fluffy slice of strawberry shortcake! Time to dig in... WHOA! The cake Kirby was about to eat has suddenly vanished! That scrumptious, berry-topped slice of mouth-watering goodness... No doubt about it! This must be the work of that greedy King Dedede! Well, there's no time to waste! Gotta get that cake back! And that's how Kirby's latest fantastic adventure begins..."
At the end of World 1, (after defeating an innocent King Dedede), Kirby finds out that the Squeaks - an infamous group of treasure-thieving mice - are the ones behind the robbery. Kirby follows the thieves on a journey that takes him all over Dream Land. At the end of World 6, a battle ensues between Kirby and the leader of the Squeaks, Daroach. Kirby wins the battle, and is about to get the treasure chest supposedly containing his cake when Meta Knight swoops in and snatches the chest away. Kirby chases Meta Knight to the end of World 7, where a duel between the two rivals ensues. Meta Knight is defeated and gives up the treasure chest, which Kirby is about to open when the Squeaks fly in and grab it from him. Daroach opens it, but the chest does not contain Kirby's cake, but dark-colored cloud that ensnares Daroach and flies off into outer space. Kirby follows, eventually encountering and fighting Daroach, now aptly named Dark Daroach, for the second time at the end of World 8. Once beaten, the darkness lets go of the Squeak leader and floats away in the form of a small, black-colored star. Kirby follows the star; it eventually transforms into its true form - Dark Nebula. It is revealed that Meta Knight was only trying to keep Kirby or anyone else from opening the chest and releasing Dark Nebula. Kirby defeats it and heads back to Dream Land, while still wondering where his cake went to. After the credits, Kirby’s cake has been put in a bubble following behind him as he flies off. It turns out the Squeaks then send him back his cake as an apology for the trouble they caused. A short while later, Kirby receives his cake, making him happy at last as he begins to eat it.
Kirby's Squeak Squad received "average" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of three eights and one seven for a total of 31 out of 40.
Criticisms concerned the lack of originality in the title when compared to the previous Kirby game on the Nintendo DS, Kirby: Canvas Curse. Television show X-Play criticized the game for weak minigames and unnecessary use of the touchscreen. The British Official Nintendo Magazine gave the game, on its European release, a score of 70%. Even though reviews were mixed, Kirby: Squeak Squad managed to sell over 1.7 million copies, with one million copies sold in Japan alone.
The game was later released on the Wii U Virtual Console service in Europe on June 25, 2015; in North America on July 30, 2015; and in Japan on September 9, 2015.

It’s important to start teaching the most important lessons in life as early as possible. The younger kids start learning skills, the more comfortable they are using those skills throughout their lives.
One of the most important lessons kids can learn, one that will continue to benefit them their entire lives, is how to work with others as a part of a team.
Teamwork is important not only in childhood, but it also plays an important role in helping them succeed as adults.
The benefits of team building for kids can have immediate results, and will last them their entire lives.
The most important lesson kids can learn from working together as a team is how to effectively communicate with others. Social skills are useful in almost every situation, and can help people succeed no matter their career or situation.
Teamwork first teaches kids how to listen, which is the first step in effective communication. Without listening it is impossible to have a dialogue with others – communication becomes one-sided and any sense of teamwork is lost.
Members of a team first have to listen to their coaches in order to learn how to perform their individual roles. Next they have to learn how to listen to each other in order to function as a cohesive unit.
Last, they have to learn how to listen to their opponents. This is a different type of listening that involves picking up on social cues. These social cues are an integral part of the social skills they will rely on throughout their lives.
A side effect of teaching kids how to listen is respect for others, which is an essential aspect not just of being a member of a team but of being a member of society. When kids are taught to listen, not to just hear, then they are taught that what others have to say is valid and worthy of consideration.
Once kids have learned how to listen to others, they can begin to learn how to speak. Of course they already know how to talk, but speaking is something different. Speaking is about reaching an audience, about understanding how to communicate with them instead of just talking at them.
While listening teaches kids to respect the ideas of others, speaking allows kids to put that respect into practice. The way in which people speak with others demonstrates their level of understanding and respect, which is a crucial part of working together as a team.
Teamwork also requires each member of the team to be able to express their own ideas and opinions effectively. Learning how to speak with others properly is an essential part of this communication.
Expressing yourself effectively involves social skills, but it also involves self confidence, which brings us to the next benefit of teamwork for kids.
When kids understand that their voices are respected and valuable, they gain self-confidence. Knowing that they are being heard gives them a sense of worth and encourages participation in the team.
In this environment, even the quietest or shyest members of the team feel encouraged to participate, which can help embolden them. The more members of the team that feel encouraged to participate, the better the team will perform.
The more valued and respected people feel, the more their insecurities evaporate. This lessening of insecurities allows for more and better communication, which allows for better teamwork.
This can become a self-sustaining cycle where participation in a team increases kid’s social skills and decreases their insecurities, both of which enhance their enjoyment of and participation in the team.
When kids feel like they are a part of a team that genuinely cares about its members, they will stick together in other situations as well. Teamwork can help dramatically reduce the effects of bullying on kids.
Being a member of a team that cares about and supports its members can give kids a sense of worth that the acts of a bully can have a hard time affecting. By providing kids with a support system, teams can help each other deal with any situation, including bullying.
In addition, kids will feel emboldened to help others deal with the effects of bullying. Because of the increased understanding and social skills imparted through teamwork, they are better equipped to stand up for others who are the victims of bullying.
The respect for others imparted through teamwork can help kids see the value in others, while the communication skills allow them to vocalize their support.
Kids who are self-confident and have well developed social skills turn into well-rounded adults. Adults with these skills are on average happier and more successful people.
Adults who work well as a member of a team are generally happier with their careers, and find their work more satisfying than adults who cannot get along well with others.
There are very few careers that don’t involve working closely with at least a small group of people. The better someone is able to communicate, and the better their social skills, the happier they will be as a member of this group.
Employers also prefer employees who have these skills. Employees who work well with others are happier and more productive in their jobs. Of course happy, productive employees do better in a company, leading to better pay, more promotions, more happiness, and more productivity.
Once again we see a self-sustaining cycle that begins will good communication and social skills. Teamwork learned as a child will develop these skills early and continue to build those skills throughout life.
Teamwork will help kids communicate with others, increase their social skills and self-confidence, and help them to develop into happier adults.
Teamwork teaches kids important skills and life lessons, but like any other skill, having a good teacher or coach is a critical aspect of the process. It takes someone with specialized knowledge and experience to guide kids through the process.
Having someone who can help kids understand how to develop these skills and show them why they are important can make a big difference. Quality instruction in team building can have a tremendous impact on how well kids learn these lessons and how quickly results from participation in a team are visible.
It’s important to involve kids early in team activities that are lead by a qualified and trained professional. Teamwork learned as a kid will continue to have a positive impact for the rest of a child’s life.

If you are interested in keeping your yard looking great year-round, then CVS Home is the place to go. If you are like most people, you just don't have the time for fertilizing, weeding, lawn mowing and all that goes into creating a beautiful, well maintained lawn. CVS Home has become the popular choice for customers that need to find low cost lawn care services in Hancock from the most trusted, local professionals.
Whether you own your own riding mower and enjoy mowing your lawn, but you'd like some help with the more difficult lawn maintenance tasks, or you would like to hire a Hancock lawn care company to take care of your whole yard for you, you've come to the right place. We recommend hiring an experienced professional to take care of all of your lawn care in Hancock, as it's usually the most efficient, affordable, and easiest solution for homeowners and property managers.
Lawn mowing service - typical Hancock lawn mowing costs range from about $35 to $85 per visit, with one time service costing more, and more often service costing less. The frequency of cuts will depend on the type of grass that you have installed, as well as your personal preference and budget.
Seeding - average Hancock lawn seeding costs are around $500 - $900 depending on the size of your lawn. Whether you hire a professional, or do it yourself, seeding during the fall is recommended to keep your lawn lush, green and healthy. You can save about $200 by seeding you own lawn, but you need to make sure to use the right seeds for your lawn and factor in a few other variables, which is just one of the reasons that we recommend hiring a local professional that's experienced with the grass types in the Hancock area.
Fertilization - the average Hancock lawn fertilization costs around $99 to $400 for an average sized yard. You should expect to spend around $.03 to $.05 per square ft, and the price will go down per square foot for larger yards. Fertilizer should be applied around four times per year, and more often during the high growth season. You can choose to have spray fertilizer, granules, as well as synthetic fertilizer applied to lawns in Hancock, Maryland. Organic fertilizer is also an option, although the cost will be slightly higher compared to the other types.
Leaf removal - average costs for leaf removal in Hancock are about $150 and $250 for the typical job. Removing leaves from your lawn is important to maintaining a healthy lawn, as fallen leaves can block sunlight and your grass can die. You have the option to blow the leaves off your property, pick them up and bag them, or vacuumed. One other option is to have your leaves vacuumed and chopped up and turned into mulch.
Aeration - lawn aeration costs in Hancock usually cost $75 to $175 depending on the type of aeration and the size of your lawn. It's recommended to do it in the spring, and it helps nutrients, water and air reach the soil so that it can stay healthy. If your grass has heavy traffic from pets or kids playing then the need for aeration increases.
Sprinkler system maintenance & repair - the average cost for sprinkler system repair in Hancock is around $100 to $300. Having a well maintained sprinkler system that evenly waters your lawn at the right time each day is essential to keeping your grass in tip top shape. You can get help with all types of irrigation systems including Toro, Nelson, Rainbird and Hunter and more.
It's important to ask about the experience of your local Hancock lawn care company's employees before you select the company for your job. Experienced lawn care experts know which species and types of grass, shrubs and plants work best in the Hancock climate, and know how to maintain them. CVSHome.com researches local pros and partners with the one's that consistently provide the highest quality of service, and also offer competitive pricing. When you hire someone to perform lawn maintenance in Hancock, make sure that you get multiple bids, and ask for references. Even a small difference in pricing can add up over the long run, especially if you are getting frequent Hancock lawn cutting service.
What Type Of Grass is Best For My Lawn in Hancock?
An easy tip is to look at what type your Hancock neighbors have and choose that type of grass. You can simply ask them, or just hire an experienced professional and they will take care of it for you.
We try to schedule lawn services in Hancock on the same day and around the same time. This makes it convenient if you want to discuss.
Are Lawn Care Companies in Hancock Required To Be Licensed?
High quality lawn service in Hancock will leave you with a lawn that provides erosion control, acts as a natural water purification system and looks great. Using a professional lawn service in Hancock to improve the health of your yard can save you time and even money. Get started by giving us a call or completing the online quote request form.

So you say you want a Great Dane, but are currently living in a 600-square-foot apartment? Contrary to what all those Disney movies have taught us, some dreams just can’t come true. Small apartment life with large pets can become a pain for you, your pets, and your landlord. Because sure, you can get a golden retriever for your efficiency apartment, but don’t expect your breakables to remain intact for very long. If you’re set on apartment life that includes a pet, be sure you take steps to select the right pet for the small apartment life.
First, you’ll need to find an apartment that allows pets, and clarify what kinds of pets it permits. For example, many apartments don’t allow certain breeds or sizes of dogs, and some will accept only certain kinds of birds. Next, you’ll need to find out if the apartment requires a pet deposit, or pet rent. Last, inspect the specific apartment unit to make sure it is suitable for your chosen pets.
Once you’ve found a small apartment that’s pet-friendly, pick your pet and enjoy the alternative pet lifestyle. For your consideration, here are 4 non-traditional pets that will thrive in small apartment life.
These clever little creatures often get a bad rap, but rats are actually very friendly, intelligent pets that are well-suite for apartment life. (“Fancy rats” is simply the name for domesticated brown rats.) As long as you don’t leave any chewable wires lying around, rats can roam your apartment without causing any trouble. Be upfront with your landlord about having pet rats, though. Some apartments don’t allow rats, and it’s better to know ahead of time than to have to give your rats away after moving in.
If you’re looking for a relatively low-maintenance pet, think about getting a reptilian pal. Bearded dragons don’t need the play space that dogs require, and make great apartment pets. These lizards in particular can require special care, so make sure there is a veterinarian near you who knows how to treat exotic animals. Additionally, make sure you’re alright with handling a bearded dragon’s diet, which includes live insects. Other lizards that might make good pets for small apartment life include iguanas, geckos, and chameleons.
Birds that don’t require much space or exercise, can be excellent long-time companions. To spare your neighbors (and yourself) the headache, avoid noisy birds like large parrots, and opt instead for a canary, finch, or parakeet. Just be sure that you, yourself, are ready for a little chirruping in your apartment—birds are birds, after all. Small apartment life with apartment birds is also a lot easier if you keep your bird’s wings clipped.
The most boring, yet most dependable, option for the aspiring apartment pet owner is a fish. Though they provide little entertainment beyond their beautiful appearance, freshwater fish are incredibly easy to maintain. Just a couple of pellets and a good cleaning of the bowl is all they need.

Having forged a successful career as a political consultant while also continuing to give back to Cowley College, Gavin Kreidler was recently named the recipient of the 2017 Outstanding Tiger Alumni award.
Kreidler grew up in Colwich, KS and attended Bishop Carroll Catholic High School in Wichita. With both his sister, Laura, and brother in law, Jake Hocker, having previously attended Cowley College, Kreidler felt Cowley would be a good place to start his college career in 2007.“I knew I wasn’t ready for a big school yet and it made sense to go to somewhere with a small town environment where I knew I was more than a student ID number to faculty,” Kreidler said.
Kreidler moved into a four-plex apartment near Cowley College’s main campus. It was there that he met Eli Hilderbrand, who lived in the apartment across the hall. Kreidler and Eli forged an instant friendship.
“We were together pretty much every day for the next two months after that,” Kreidler said.
Tragically their friendship would be short lived as a fire at the apartment building on Oct. 2, 2007 would change their lives forever.
Three of the apartments were occupied, and all the tenants escaped unharmed except for Eli. Initially, Eli got out of the building after the fire broke out, however Eli went back in because he thought someone was still in the house, and then he could not get out.
Following the tragedy, Kreidler completed two years at Cowley and then went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in Political Science and a Business Administration minor from Pittsburg State University in 2011.
As a way to honor his friend, Kreidler established the Eli Hilderbrand Memorial Scholarship at Cowley College in 2015. Kreidler plans to host a golf tournament in Lawrence, KS this August to help raise additional funds for the scholarship.
Cowley College vice president of institutional advancement, Dr. Kori Gregg, said the Outstanding Tiger Alumni Award was created in part to honor an alum who has brought pride to the college through excellence in career and community service and she cannot think of a more deserving individual than Gavin Kreidler.
Kreidler currently resides in Lawrence, KS and operates Kreidler Consulting Group as well as the Kreidler Real Estate Group. He has invested in a few other businesses as well.
Kreidler is humbled to join the list of former recipients of the Outstanding Tiger Alumni award.
Kreidler hopes the scholarship he established has helped a few students and will continue to grow each year. He is looking forward to returning to Cowley College to share in the Commencement exercises on May 13.

When a person has constant pain in the bottom of their feet, life is not very pleasant. Walking is a difficult task when every step is uncomfortable. Athletic competition often needs to be put on hold, and getting any exercise at all becomes a very difficult task.
These are the lifestyle changes that frequently occur when a person develops plantar fasciitis. This is a condition that results when a broad, ligament-like area of the lower part of the foot (known as the plantar fascia, which extends from heel to toe) becomes inflamed. The condition strikes people with widely ranging lifestyles including most commonly those who are obese, and those who are athletes or that do a considerable amount of walking or standing. Medical treatment for the problem includes traditional therapies like ice, total rest, orthotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, cortisone shots or even surgery.
Relief along these lines was also noted by many of the 11 people who participated in a study at the Walther Reed Army Hospital in Washington, D.C. The study was done to examine the effectiveness of electoacupuncture in the management of plantar fasciitis pain. Basically, the people in the study enjoyed marked reductions in foot pain with the condition improving quite quickly.
All of the people in this study had been experiencing pain for at least 2 months before receiving Acupuncture. Treatments were administered one time per week for a minimum of 6 weeks, usually lasting 20 to 30 minutes per session. Acupoints chosen for the treatment were located both in the heel area and the arch in the central region of the foot. Each person was asked specific questions about the amount of pain experienced at the beginning of treatment and this was compared to their later assessments after their sessions.
The results showed that electoacupuncture produced significant improvement, according to researchers. Of the 11 patients, 9 reported pain reduction at greater than 50 percent. Two patients reported that their condition was completely handled. This is good news for anyone who has suffered from this painful condition. A drug-free approach that brings relief in a relatively short period of time would very definitely be worth trying for anyone who wants to get back on their feet and on with normal living.

No need to be intimidated by the large and in charge pomelo! It looks like a mammoth grapefruit, and it tastes similar to a grapefruit, yet it’s slightly sweeter and not as bitter. Simply remove the thick rind and peel the membrane from around the segments.
If you want to get fancy, you can use a sharp paring knife to “supreme” the segments into sharp, gorgeously pink wedges. After that, pomelo segments can be eaten on their own, enjoyed in salads, salsas, or even cooked into jam. My advice is to keep it simple with pomelos, much like with grapefruit. The more you heat it, the more you compromise the gentle flavor. I especially love to separate out all the little juice pods from each other, a task that sounds much more difficult than it actually is.
The result is a pile of light pink, caviar-like gems, bursting with juice and flavor. They are perfect as a garnish on both sweet and savory dishes, and they look lovely floating in a cocktail too.
Refreshing, on-trend, and healthful, this salad will leave your taste buds wanting more! Make the dressing ahead of time and allow it to meld in the fridge to really develop the flavor.
Whisk brown sugar and 1 Tbsp. water in a medium bowl to dissolve sugar. Whisk in chiles, garlic, lime juice, and fish sauce; season with salt. Check for seasoning. It should be salty and fresh.
Toast coconut in a dry small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
Heat oil in same saucepan. Add half the purple onions and fry, swirling, until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the peanuts and cook for another minute. Transfer to paper towels with a slotted spoon to drain; season with salt.
Remove peel and white pith from pomelos. Tear membrane off and pull segments into large pieces, transferring to a large bowl as you go. Add cilantro and mint, and half of dressing and toss to coat. Add coconut, peanuts, and dried shrimp; toss again.

That morning cup of wake you up which most of us can’t start the day without has been the subject of much debate over the years. A litany of studies, scientific and otherwise, have made all kinds of claims that coffee can both help prolong your life and send you to an early grave.
These results have led to wide-ranging myths that have been circulated and repeated over and over again. Some are true, most are false. So before you head over to the office coffee machine to start your day, check out these six common myths that are often perpetuated but hold very little basis in fact. You may be surprised by how many of them you believed up until now.
One might guess that this myth gained popularity because we drink coffee to wake us up due to the caffeine content within. But the reality here is far different.
While everyone knows that the coffee machine for work can provide you with a powerful stimulant, the human body is far more powerful in its capacity to convert that caffeine in your system. It takes as few as four and as much as eight hours for your body to dismiss caffeine entirely, so unless you’re drinking it right before you go to bed you really won’t have a problem falling asleep.
This myth is based on the caffeine element as well. While it’s true that caffeine can help curb hunger and even speed up your metabolism only ever so slightly, don’t expect your 9am eye opener to help you shed those extra pounds. In fact, the converse might be more accurate because unless you’re drinking your coffee black you’ll be consuming sugar and cream or milk, both of which may contain fat.
Even those fancy french vanilla hazelnut caramel specialty brews might contain the same fattening additives. So before you sign up for that coffee machine service as a substitute for hitting the gym, the reality is you’re still going to need to rely on a good diet and exercise regimen to reach that ideal weight.
You’ve likely seen it done in movies, maybe even tried it yourself. A few too many alcoholic beverages can lead to a drunken stupor and the quickest solution to regaining sobriety is a cup of hot black coffee. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work, at least not in the way you think.
Drinking coffee after a night of beers and shots won’t sober you up, but the caffeine will give you the sensation that you’re more attentive and awake. However, combining the two could prove potentially harmful as the caffeine may convince you that you’re more alert than you really are, but getting behind the wheel is still a bad idea.
Step away from that office coffee machine. You’ve had enough. Sound familiar? Probably not because who in their right mind would get between you and your cup of hot coffee, right? If that sounds like you, then maybe you (or your co-workers) are starting to wonder if you just might be developing an unhealthy addiction to coffee.
The truth this time might hurt just a bit, as this myth does have some basis in fact. It’s true that caffeine is a stimulant and any stimulant can bring about a dependency. The likelihood of it however, is not high. But the good news is that coffee is an easy habit to kick. You may feel some slight withdrawal symptoms but nothing major and they usually clear up after a day or two.

Cape Town Central City Improvement District’s (CCID) launches its annual #KeepItClean campaign, run by its Urban Management department.
CapeTalk's Kieno Kammies talks to CCID chief executive Tasso Evangelinos about the campaign.
Illegal dumping and littering is a worldwide phenomenon.
But it is often regarded as a very dry subject so people tend to ignore these campaigns.
So we are trying to make it more interactive, more humorous, express a bit of anger and emotion where necessary so people participate and raise that awareness to a level where people take responsibility for their actions.
CCID spends on average R11 million a year on waste removal in the city - and that's apart from the additional City of Cape Town spend.
That's a lot of money, especially during these tough economic times...every single ratepayer is going to be affected by this amount.
For more information from CCID click here.
The General Manager of Marketing at Shoprite and Checkers Willie Peters explains the new initiative to curb plastic littering.
[LISTEN] Can Zibi the anti-litter ostrich help clean up South Africa?
Cartoonist Dov Fedler gives background into his Zibi cartoon that helped clean up in the 80s.
The official amount charged by government is 8 cents, however some retailers are charging up to 50 cents for a plastic bag.
Mark Gordon, Deputy Director-General for Chemicals and Waste Management in the Department of Environmental Affairs, describes how plastic pollution is being addressed in the country.

The eyes are the gateway to your personality and say a great deal about how you’re feeling at any given moment. As you age, however, they tend to succumb to the effects of gravity, genetics, and other outside factors. These can cause them to droop, making you look old, tired, and sad, even when you’re feeling alert and happy. Fortunately, with the right plastic surgery procedure, this doesn’t have to be a problem.
Through plastic surgery, getting your youthful eyes back is a piece of cake. There are many safe and efficient techniques available to reverse the effects of time and rejuvenate your youthful allure. First, you will need to undergo an assessment with an experienced plastic surgeon. Depending on your needs, they may suggest either a blepharoplasty or a brow lift to help accomplish your goals.
Interested in reclaiming your youthful eyes? Contact our office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Stephen Fink, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon, to learn more about the surgical options available to you.

Ever since I learnt how to make my own Vietnamese fresh summer rolls, I have been making them endlessly. They are easy to prepare, healthy and tasty. While summer rolls are usually made with fresh prawns (shrimps), I love to use all sorts of fillings for them – I even made summer rolls with leftover KFC chicken and they were delicious!
The wrapped rolls keep well in the fridge so I often pack the leftovers for my bento lunch to bring to work the next day. For this recipe, the summer rolls are served with a really easy peanut hoisin sauce dip.
There are various ways of wrapping these fresh spring rolls but the tutorial below shows my favourite way of wrapping. The summer rolls look beautiful with the scallions sticking out of the wrap. If I am bringing them for work, I used mini wrappers instead without the stick-out scallions so that they can fit in easily into my lunchbox.
These are the wrappers I used. There is a smaller version but I prefer to use the bigger type (22 cm) as they are much easier to wrap. To use, I quickly dip the rice paper in a shallow plate of water, and remove it as soon as it is wet on the surface. There is no need to soak the rice paper until softened, in fact doing so will make them too soft to wrap and the skin will break more easily. The rice paper should be still semi hard when wrapping.
Place a damp and clean kitchen cloth on top of the chopping board or work surface. This makes it easier to remove the summer roll and minimize tearing the skin, but it’s optional. Place a few lettuce leaves near the bottom of the wrapper nearest to you. Add a small handful of cooked vermicelli and two prawn halves, followed by some hand-torn mint leaves. This is the basic filling. You can add 2 thin slices roast pork and/or fish cakes if desired.
Fold the edge nearest you towards the center, followed by the two sides.
Roll the wrap away from you, while keeping the fillings tight.
Arrange 3 scallions stalks, two shrimp halves and two small mint leaves in an aesthetic way as shown. This will be the top of the summer roll. Feel free to arrange the ingredients in your own way.
Continue rolling the last portion of the wrap.
Flip the summer roll over to reveal the “beautiful side” and it’s done!
This is something I can eat every day! Must get some wraps next time when I visit Asian stores.
I also made rice paper rolls sometime ago but the rice paper broke quite easily even when I did not over-do the “dipping” in water when wetting the rice paper. Maybe it was the quality of rice paper,I don’t know.
You can try the damp cloth to see if it helps better. I am surprised as well that the rolls keep well chilled (covered in the lunchbox with lid). Oh I remember your “chu chang feng” with the gochujang dip, yum.
The Vietnamese rolls goes well with gochujang sauce as dip too.
FINALLY! Always wanted to make this, and so glad it appears on your site, cos every recipe I had tried from here, has ALWAYS been easy and great tasting!
Wanted to ask where to get the Rice Paper. So far, cannot see it at fairprice or fairprice fineness (maybe I did not look hard enough). Can tell me where to get it pls? Thanks!
I got my rice paper from Sheng Shiong and I have also saw it at Tampines Mall NTUC. I think the bigger NTUC outlets sell it. It’s at the dried goods section. Hope you find it!
Fresh prawns in a yummy rice paper wrap, lots of flavour in every bite!
Great website! I just wanted to add that rice paper wraps are NOT low carb. It’s very surprising how many carbs are in each thin wrap (near to 40 grams per serving).
